Commander Cody

Commander Cody is a clone trooper commander assigned to General Obi-Wan Kenobi of the Army of the Republic. The leader of Squad Seven, Cody is a loyal and competent soldier.

Clone Commander CC-2224, otherwise known as Cody, was created and trained on Kamino as with all clone troopers. However, Cody was bred specifically for a leadership role, and recieved special training from elite ARC troopers. One of a number of next-generation commanders, Cody was an ARC trooper in all but name, with advanced tactical intelligence, independent thought and a personality as close to human as any clone.

Cody was paired with Obi-Wan Kenobi on a number of missions; he served the Negotiator on Cato Neimodia prior to the Battle of Coruscant, and later helped Kenobi track down General Grievous on Utapau. Here, Cody led his troops into battle against the General's droid forces in Pau City.

Unfortunately, the friendship forged between Cody and Kenobi on the battlefield ended when Darth Sidious commanded the clone trooper to carry out Order 66. Trained since before he became self-aware to complete this objective without question, Cody ordered his troops to open fire on the Jedi Master. Obi-Wan managed to escape Cody's devastating attack, but the commander remained on Utapau to promote the tyranny of the new Galactic Empire.
