Battle of Ryloth (Clone Wars)
 "The Twi'leks on that planet can't wait for long, Master. The longer the Techno Union keeps control of Ryloth, the more difficult it'll be to free them.''" "''I agree. We don't have much time."

- Anakin Skywalker and Mace Windu

The Battle of Ryloth took place in 22 BBY on the Twi'lek homeworld of Ryloth during the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Seeking to steal the treasures of Corporate Alliance Magistrate and fellow Separatist Council member Passel Argente while scoring another victory for the Confederacy, Techno Union Foreman Emir Wat Tambor commanded the invasion of the planet, and subjugated the Twi'lek people. Tambor also blockaded the planet, placing Neimoidian Captain Mar Tuuk in charge of the Confederate fleet and tactical droid TX-20 in charge of the proton cannons in the city of Nabat, while he made headquarters for himself in the conquered capital of Lessu.

The Jedi High Council dispatched Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan, Jedi Commander Ahsoka Tano. They engaged Captain Tuuk's blockade, and forces of three Venator-class cruisers initially suffered losses and retreated, but returned to the system and were able to eliminate the Confederate blockade. The Republic troop transports&mdash;under the command of High Jedi Generals Obi-Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu&mdash;were able to move in; however, they were unable to land in the city of Nabat because of fire from the Confederate proton cannons. High General Kenobi, Clone Commander Cody, and the GAR unit Ghost Company destroyed the cannons; after the transports landed, the ground forces deployed under Windu's command and headed for the capital of Lessu. Meanwhile, Skywalker and Tano secured the space around Ryloth, and General Kenobi headed down to retake the southern hemisphere.

En route to Lessu aboard AT-TE walkers, Windu, Clone Commander Ponds and Lightning Squadron were attacked by Confederate tanks, and defeated them, but suffered losses. Windu enlisted the help of Twi'lek General Cham Syndulla of the freedom fighters. After Emir Tambor began a firebombing campaign of several villages in the area, Syndulla finally set aside his differences with his planet's Twi'lek senator, Orn Free Taa, and joined Windu and his forces. After Windu was able to activate the city's plasma bridge&mdash;the only access to the city&mdash;with ARF troopers Razor and Stak, the combined forces of Lightning Squadron and the freedom fighters entered the city and routed the Confederacy. Tambor's own tactical droid escaped with the Emir's shuttle and left him stranded, and Windu was able to capture the Techno Union foreman.

Following the liberation of Lessu, Skywalker and Tano were left in command of the operations against the remaining Confederate holdouts on the planet. The two Jedi led their 501st Legion clone troopers through the ruined city of Resdin, gradually clearing out the droid forces that were encamped there. During the conflict, Clone Captain CC-7567 and Clone Sergeant CS-2207 were captured by bounty hunter Cad Bane, who was on the run after stealing the Gravitic Core, a part of Separatist scientist Kul Teska's newly developed superweapon. The clones were eventually rescued by Skywalker and Tano, but while trying to escape from Resdin, the Jedi, clones, and bounty hunter were attacked by Teska. The Separatist agent retrieved the Gravitic Core, and Bane made his own escape off-planet. (Read more...)

Nuvo Vindi
"One can never have too many lab rats."

- Dr. Vindi

Nuvo Vindi was a male Faust doctor who lived during the waning years of the Galactic Republic. Vindi was mentally unstable, using his talents as a scientist and researcher to achieve his vision of a perfect galaxy. Originally employed as the senior medic for the criminal Perma families, Vindi went missing in 32 BBY and was believed dead. Reappearing on Naboo as a Confederacy of Independent Systems scientist during the Clone Wars, he became obsessed with recreating the eradicated Blue Shadow Virus, a deadly water-borne plague which resulted in instantaneous death and had no known cure. Vindi worked out of a subterranean laboratory in Naboo's eastern swamps alongside Confederate battle droids and LEP-86C8, a LEP servant droid. In 22 BBY, Vindi was not only able to re-engineer the virus, but also create an airborne strain he planned to release in key Republic star systems.

After several of his battle droids were discovered by Royal Naboo Security Forces, Vindi's plot was revealed to Naboo's Senator Padmé Amidala and Representative Jar Jar Binks, who then contacted the Jedi Order for assistance. Vindi captured Amidala and Binks before the arrival of the Jedi and held them hostage in his laboratory until it was raided shortly after by Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, Knight Anakin Skywalker, Padawan Ahsoka Tano, and the clone troopers of the 501st Legion. After torturing Amidala and Binks for a short time, Vindi made an attempt to escape Naboo and reintroduce the virus to the galaxy. He was instead apprehended by Skywalker and Kenobi outside his laboratory to be transported to Naboo's capital of Theed. Although the virus was released during the battle, a cure was quickly found by Kenobi and Skywalker on the planet Iego, negating the threat. Vindi was then taken to the galactic capital Coruscant for trial. (Read more...)

Katuunko
"You have my faith. Toydaria would be honored to host a Republic base. My people are at your service."

- Katuunko to Jedi Master Yoda

Katuunko was a male Toydarian who ruled as the king of the planet Toydaria prior to the rise of the Galactic Empire. During the Clone Wars, Katuunko was contacted by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine of the Galactic Republic, who requested that the Grand Army of the Republic be permitted to use Toydaria as a supply base and staging ground in their war against the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Katuunko proposed negotiations between himself and a Republic envoy to take place on Rugosa, a neutral moon near the Toydaria. The Chancellor agreed, and at the king's request, Palpatine also consented to send a Jedi to take part in the negotiations.

On Rugosa, King Katuunko and the Toydarian royal delegation were greeted not only by the Jedi, but by Dark Acolyte Asajj Ventress of the Confederacy as well. While Ventress proposed an alliance between the king and the Confederacy, the Jedi Order's Grand Master Yoda and several clone troopers were forced to land on the moon in an escape pod after their ship was attacked by Confederate frigates. Although Ventress claimed the attack was proof of the Confederacy's superiority, Katuunko still wished to meet with Master Yoda, and so agreed to a challenge set forth by Ventress. If her troops were able to capture Yoda before he could reach the King, Toydaria would join the Confederacy; however, if Yoda managed to evade Ventress and her droids, the king would pledge his alliance to the Republic.

While Katuunko remained alongside Ventress, Yoda and his small force of clone troopers trekked across the coral moon, combating and evading the Confederate droid forces. The Toydarian became increasingly disturbed with Ventress's tactics and dishonesty, and eventually rejected the Confederacy's offer, leading to an assassination attempt at the hands of the Dark Jedi. Luckily for Katuunko, the Grand Master and his clone troopers succeeded in their mission, arriving at the King's location just in time to prevent his assassination. The grateful Katuunko then promised his unwavering service to the Republic shortly before departing Rugosa alongside Master Yoda. (Read more...)

Hylo Visz
"In retrospect, this outcome was inevitable, and would have come sooner were it not for some of the Republic's less savory allies."

- Gnost-Dural, referring to Visz's influence on the Treaty of Coruscant

Hylo Visz was a female Mirialan who lived during the Great Galactic War between the Galactic Republic and the resurgent Sith Empire. She was born on the Colonies world of Balmorra, but later became a refugee when the Empire raided the planet. Her father was killed during the attack, and she and her mother were forced to flee the world alongside hundreds of other Balmorrans. Her mother died of illness while their transport made a stop on the Hutt-controlled moon of Nar Shaddaa, and Visz was left to fend for herself as an orphan. In her youth, she joined a band of similarly orphaned children, and together they stole and scavenged in order to survive. She was eventually employed by the Hutt Cartel to work in the shipyards in Nar Shaddaa's Undercity, but she soon found that her true calling was piloting.

After years of freelancing, Visz was hired on by the Hutt Cartel as a smuggler. In her beloved ship, the Crimson Fleece, the Mirialan made a name for herself as a proficient and talented smuggler. During a delivery to the Rendili Vehicle Corporation on Corellia for Barrga the Hutt, Visz lost the Fleece when Barrga was double-crossed by the Rendili Corporation. Visz survived the incident and was able to escape Corellia aboard an experimental Vanguard starship she stole from the Rendili facility. The Mirialan decided that she no longer needed to work for the Cartel, and so abandoned her home on Nar Shaddaa and took to the stars for new adventures, eventually becoming the leader of an independent smuggling ring.

In the last decade of the war, Visz gained galactic renown as the smuggler famed for leading the attack that broke the Mandalorian blockade of the Hydian Way. The oppressive blockade had been crippling the Republic's economy and ability to wage war, and the Mirialan saw the crisis as an opportunity for incredible profit. Visz and her band of smugglers organized a fleet that engaged and scattered the Mandalorian vessels, clearing a path for their freighters to deliver much-needed goods to the Core Worlds. With the aid of the Republic Navy her plan was a success, and following the battle she was rewarded for her efforts and recognized as a hero within the Republic. Visz's victory allowed the Republic to survive and continue its war against the Sith; however, it also led the Empire to adopt more desperate and aggressive tactics, such as the Sacking of Coruscant. As such, her success would play a major role in the Treaty of Coruscant, which concluded the war. It was later rumored that she was killed after she attempted to double-cross the Hutt Cartel.

Nala Se


Nala Se was a female Kaminoan who lived during the Clone Wars. During the conflict, Se worked out of the Republic's secret Kaliida Shoals Medical Center, a space station in the Outer Rim intended to facilitate the rehabilitation of wounded clone troopers. Around 22 BBY, General Grievous, who had recently begun to attack Republic forces with the Confederate superweapon Malevolence, was directed by the Confederate Head of State Count Dooku to destroy the Kaliida Shoals Center, as it was the only medical facility for the treatment of injured clone troopers.

Grievous' attack on the medcenter was anticipated by Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, who made preparations for a strike against the Malevolence while Se began the evacuation of Kaliida Shoals. To her dismay, she was unable to remove many clones from the center. Even with the arrival of the Malevolence, Se refused to flee the station and leave her patients behind. However, Skywalker and the Republic's Shadow Squadron arrived and engaged the Malevolence, which was forced to retreat before it could damage the station.

Nala Se would later be transferred to a medical station near the planet of Ord Cestus, where she would serve alongside High Jedi General Kit Fisto. In the aftermath of a second battle on Geonosis, the station was designated to be the source of much-needed medical supplies for General Mace Windu's forces on Dantooine. However, the clones aboard the Pelta-class frigate TB-73, which was to retrieve the supplies, had been infected by mind-controlling parasites from the Geonosian battlefront. Upon emerging from hyperspace, the out-of-control frigate ran the risk of either colliding with the medical station or docking to spread the disease, but was stopped due to the efforts of Fisto and Jedi Padawans Ahsoka Tano and Barriss Offee.

EV-A4-D


EV-A4-D, also known as A4-D, was a modified EV-series supervisor droid who served the cyborg General Grievous of the Confederacy of Independent Systems as a medical/repair droid during the Clone Wars. As with many EV-model droids, a programming defect caused EV-A4-D to have a sadistic personality. Prior to his work with Grievous, EV-A4-D served as a supervisor in a hospital on the world of Tauber, but he was relieved from duty after ordering the medical droids under his command to operate on patients without administering painkillers. He was later purchased by the InterGalactic Banking Clan and absorbed into the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

EV-A4-D was eventually assigned to work as the personal doctor of Grievous. Stationed in Grievous's castle on the third moon of Vassek, EV-A4-D became the facility's caretaker, managing the general's residence and working to repair any damage he sustained to his cyborg body over the course of the war. Around 22 BBY, Confederate Head of State Count Dooku lured Republic forces to Grievous's castle in order to assess the general's abilities as the Supreme Commander of the Separatist Droid Army. During the confrontation with the Republic, Grievous was heavily damaged and was repaired by EV-A4-D to be able to confront the intruders once more. EV-A4-D later separated Nahdar Vebb and Kit Fisto, the two Jedi who were leading the Republic forces, allowing Grievous to defeat Vebb. However, as EV-A4-D monitored the castle's security cameras from the control room, he was bisected and destroyed by Fisto.

The droid's body was later recovered by Grievous and reassembled. EV-A4-D then left Vassek, traveling with his master during his military campaigns serving as both doctor and advisor. EV-A4-D was present alongside Grievous during the seige of Dorin, during which he informed the general a communication from Count Dooku's assassin, Asajj Ventress.(Read more...)

Skytop Station
"Most honored Count, Skytop Station is fully active! Only my contacts in the communications cartel could make such a marvel possible."

- Po Nudo to Count Dooku

Skytop Station was a Confederate listening post during the Clone Wars. A modified Lucrehulk-class Core Ship, the station was designed to monitor Republic communications, thereby providing the Confederate Droid Army with vital intelligence on the movement of enemy fleets. Skytop Station was built and crewed by the Hyper-Communications Cartel, a business group formed by Confederate leader Po Nudo. It was stationed in the upper atmosphere of one of the moons of Ruusan.

Once construction was completed, Skytop Station began to intercept Republic HoloNet transmissions, providing the Confederacy with intelligence on the movement of Republic fleets. Following the Battle of Bothawui, High Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi tasked Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan, Jedi Commander Ahsoka Tano, with finding and destroying the station. The two discovered Skytop Station's location after receiving a distress call from the captured Republic droid R2-D2, who was being taken to the station to be delivered to the Confederate General Grievous. Skywalker and Tano traveled to the station and infiltrated it alongside members of the Grand Army of the Republic's 501st Legion with the intent to rescue R2-D2 and destroy the listening post. Despite Grievous's efforts to thwart the Republic forces, Skywalker and his companions were able to disable Skytop Station's reactor and repulsorlift generators, causing the core ship to fall from the sky.

Tranquility


The Tranquility was a Venator-class Star Destroyer in the service of the Republic Navy during the Clone Wars. Around 22 BBY, the Star Destroyer was dispatched to Rodia in the aftermath of Trade Federation Viceroy Nute Gunray's capture by the Republic. Alongside Senior Jedi General Luminara Unduli, Jedi Commander Ahsoka Tano, a contingent of the Grand Army of the Republic's 41st Elite Legion, and a division of Senate Commandos, the Tranquility was to transport Gunray from Rodia to the Republic capital of Coruscant, where he would stand trial for war crimes.

Just as the Tranquility began its journey, it was accosted by Confederate Vulture droid starfighters and Droch-class boarding ships. Despite the efforts of the Star Destroyer's gunners, the boarding ships were able to pierce the Tranquility ' s hull, deploying super battle droids alongside Asajj Ventress, a Confederate assassin tasked with freeing Gunray from Republic captivity. Although the Republic forces aboard the Tranquility were able to repel the battle droids, Ventress crippled the Star Destroyer by setting off explosives within its main reactor room. This, in addition to the betrayal of a member of the Senate Commandos, allowed Gunray to escape the detention level, flee the Tranquility, and return to Confederate space. After a lightsaber duel in the destroyed reactor room, Ventress escaped the Tranquility as well aboard one of its escape pods, joining the fleeing Gunray and leaving the Jedi and Republic Navy with a heavily damaged Star Destroyer.

Nahdar Vebb


Nahdar Vebb was a male Mon Calamari who served as a Jedi Knight during the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and Confederacy of Independent Systems. Vebb was the Padawan of Jedi Master Kit Fisto prior to the Clone Wars, but with the outbreak of the war, Fisto became a Jedi General in the Grand Army of the Republic and was unable to see Vebb's apprenticeship through to the end. Sometime around the beginning of the war, Vebb completed his training in his Master's absence and ascended to the rank of Jedi Knight. With the war still raging, Vebb joined the Republic's forces as a Jedi healer.

Around 22 BBY, Viceroy Nute Gunray, a leading member of the Separatist Council, escaped Republic captivity and stole a Republic frigate to flee. Vebb, Clone Commander Fil, and a group of clone troopers tracked the stolen vessel to the third moon of Vassek in the hopes of recapturing Gunray. Shortly after arriving, Vebb and the clones were met by the Mon Calamari's former Master, Kit Fisto, who had also been trailing Gunray. On the moon the Jedi and clones discovered a large fortress, and after continuing investigations inside the castle, they realized that they had been lured to the moon by Confederate Head of State Count Dooku as a test for General Grievous, the Supreme Commander of the Separatist Droid Army and a notorious Jedi hunter.

Vebb and the others discovered that they were inside Grievous's lair and planned to engage and capture the cyborg general, but upon his return, Grievous killed most of the clones and escaped from Vebb, Fisto, and Fil. The three were trapped in the castle, and with Fil's death at the hands of the general's pet roggwart, Gor, Vebb became increasingly angered and aggressive. When he saw an opportunity to kill Grievous, Vebb acted against Fisto's orders and dueled the general. The Mon Calamari was slain by Grievous, but Fisto managed to retrieve Vebb's lightsaber from the general before escaping. (Read more...)

Wee Dunn


Wee Dunn was a male Rodian living with his mother, Mahtee Dunn, in Rodia's Kay-Tap square during the Clone Wars. The young Rodian was discovered to be Force-sensitive during his early infancy, but was not to be taken into the Jedi Order until a slightly older age. Dunn's identity was entered into a database of Force-sensitive infants stored within the Kyber memory crystal, which was used to locate future members of the Jedi Order when the time came for them to be trained. This crystal was eventually stolen by the Duros bounty hunter Cad Bane at the behest of Darth Sidious, the Dark Lord of the Sith.

Planning to use the Force-sensitive infants to create an army of dark side warriors, Sidious directed Bane to abduct two children from the crystal's list and deliver them to Mustafar, where they would become the Dark Lord's test subjects. Dunn was Bane's second target, and the bounty hunter traveled to Kay-Tap square in the guise of a Jedi Knight in order to fool his mother into willingly handing over the infant. Bane succeeded and took Wee Dunn to Mustafar, where the young Rodian was prepared for brain-washing surgery. Before the operation could take place, however, Dunn was rescued by Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan, Ahsoka Tano. After the ordeal, Dunn was taken into the Jedi Order. (Read more...)

Bolla Ropal
"The Republic military brings more than conflict, I assure you. I am far more interested in using this might to fortify the future than wage war in the present."

- Jedi Master Bolla Ropal

Bolla Ropal was a male Rodian Jedi Master who lived in the waning years of the Galactic Republic. During the Clone Wars, Ropal acted as the keeper of the Kyber memory crystal, a device that contained the names of all known Force-sensitive children in the galaxy. Around the beginning of the war, the Rodian accompanied several other Jedi Masters and members of the Jedi High Council to a meeting with Supreme Chancellor Palpatine regarding the kidnapping of the Hutt crime lord Jabba Desilijic Tiure's son by agents of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Later in the war, Ropal and his Padawan, Tyzen Xebec, oversaw the construction of a Republic base on Devaron.

During a meeting between Ropal and several Devaronian dignitaries, Devaron was invaded by Confederate forces under the command of the bounty hunter Cad Bane. Under the directive of his client, Darth Sidious, Bane hunted down Ropal in order to retrieve the Kyber crystal and unlock the information it held. Ropal was defeated during the battle and taken to Bane's Munificent-class frigate, where he was imprisoned and tortured. Learning of Bane's plot to steal the crystal, Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker led a Republic fleet to Devaron to engage the bounty hunter and rescue Ropal before the Confederate forces fled the system. Short on time, Bane increased Ropal's torture while repeatedly trying to force the Jedi Master to unlock the secrets of the crystal. Ropal continually refused, and the torture eventually resulted in his death. The Jedi Master's body was discovered shortly thereafter by Republic forces and moved to the Venator-class Star Destroyer Resolute. (Read more...)

Fang Zar
"It appears you attended to our little problem on Alderaan, Lord Vader.''" "''Yes, Master. Fang Zar need no longer concern you."

- Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader

Fang Zar was a male Human who served as the senator of the Sern sector during the waning years of the Galactic Republic and the early days of the Galactic Empire. He was an outspoken opponent of the centralization of power experienced by the Republic during Supreme Chancellor Palpatine's time in office and became involved with a secret organization of Loyalists known as the Republic Group. Zar was a key member in the group's plan to "restore honor to the Republic" by revealing the Insignia of Unity; however, intervention by the Senate Bureau of Intelligence left the plan in obscurity for decades. His opposition to Palpatine eventually led him to become a member of the Delegation of 2000, a group of senators and representatives who disapproved of the sweeping amendments made to the Galactic Constitution over the course of the Clone Wars. Shortly after the Battle of Coruscant, Zar accompanied other members of the Delegation to present the Petition of 2000 to Palpatine in the hope that the Supreme Chancellor would begin to relinquish some of the powers granted to him by the constitutional amendments.

The Delegation's plea fell on deaf ears, and Palpatine seized absolute power, transforming the Republic into the Galactic Empire at the close of the Clone Wars. The new Galactic Emperor targeted members of the Delegation of 2000 as traitors to the Empire, and Zar was detained for a time by the Imperial Security Bureau. Upon release, he was ordered to remain on Coruscant; however, the Sern Prime native abandoned his post as senator and fled to Alderaan. There, Zar was granted political asylum by Bail Prestor Organa, a founding member of the Delegation of 2000. After residing in the Aldera Royal Palace for several weeks, Zar's flight from Coruscant was revealed to the Emperor, who dispatched Darth Vader to retrieve the former senator and return him to the Imperial Security Bureau. Not wanting to involve Organa in his troubles with the Bureau, Zar contacted a crime lord on Murkhana to obtain passage from Alderaan to Sern Prime. The crew of the freighter Drunk Dancer undertook the mission to transport Zar and was successful in recovering the former senator from the Royal Palace. However, before he boarded the Drunk Dancer and departed Alderaan, Zar was attacked by Darth Vader, who threw his lightsaber at the senator. The blade cut through Zar's chest, resulting in his death shortly thereafter on the Drunk Dancer operating table. (Read more...)

Battle of Bothawui (Second; Great Galactic War)
"Jedi Master Belth Allusis, seven dozen of the Order's finest Knights, and four thousand of the Republic's strongest soldiers dug in to defend the shield generators&hellip;or die trying. The disparity was staggering. An unprecedented Imperial army, fifty thousand strong, descended on on Bothawui's brave defenders. The defenders were undaunted. With no expectation of survival, they were mindful only of their duty."

- Jedi Master Gnost-Dural's account of the battle

The Battle of Bothawui was a major engagement during the Great Galactic War between the Galactic Republic and the resurgent Sith Empire. Following its victory in the Seswenna sector and the Outer Rim Territories at large, the Empire set its sights toward the galactic core, with one of its first targets being the Mid Rim world of Bothawui. Anticipating this, the Republic Navy stationed a massive defense fleet over the planet to prevent the Empire from claiming the strategically important world. As a result, the Empire's first attempt at seizing Bothawui was a resounding failure.

The Empire refused to accept defeat, however, and prepared yet another invasion force for Bothawui. The massive Imperial armada descended upon the planet with the objective to destroy the planetary shield that was protecting it. The shield's only defenders were a relatively small force of Republic troops and a contingent of Jedi led by Master Belth Allusis. Despite overwhelming odds, the Republic forces held out for days on end and gave no ground to the Empire. However, by virtue of numbers alone, their defeat was inevitable, and the defenders were gradually killed off. In a bold last stand, Allusis and his surviving troops fought the Imperials off Bothawui before being slain themselves.

As a result of the battle, the Empire halted its incursions into the Mid Rim. Despite the loss of all the Republic forces on Bothawui, the story of Bothawui's defenders and their determined fight against the Empire inspired many across the Republic, giving birth to new tactics and a new resolve to continue waging the war.

Zule Xiss
"Our angry sister protects herself in armor of fire."

- Vaabesh

Zule Xiss was a female Falleen who served as a Jedi Padawan during the waning days of the Old Republic. Aggressive and headstrong, she was apprenticed to the Human Jedi Master Glaive prior to the outbreak of the Clone Wars. Several weeks after the Battle of Geonosis, she and her Master were dispatched to the Naboo system with fellow Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker in response to a loss of communication with the Gungan colony on Naboo's moon of Ohma-D'un. Upon arriving on Ohma-D'un, the Jedi and their clone troopers found the Gungans dead, victims of the Confederacy of Independent Systems' experimental swamp gas biological weapon. Before Xiss and the Republic forces could warn Naboo of the threat posed by the gas, they were assaulted by Durge and Asajj Ventress, agents of the Confederacy. In the ensuing skirmish, Ventress killed Glaive and sliced off Xiss's arm. The Falleen was able to escape Ohma-D'un alongside Kenobi, Skywalker, and Advanced Recon Commando Alpha-17.

Xiss, now bereft of a Master, joined the "Padawan Pack," a group of Jedi apprentices whose Masters had been killed over the course of the war. A year after the genocide on Ohma-D'un, the Padawan Pack was dispatched to the embattled world of Jabiim to fight there on the Republic's behalf. Command of the Republic army on Jabiim fell to Xiss and her fellow orphaned Padawans, as all higher ranking Jedi eventually fell to the Jabiimi Nationalists, a pro-Confederacy political movement that wished to secede Jabiim from the Republic. After weeks of fighting, the Padawan Pack pulled their forces back to Cobalt Station, where they were assaulted by the army of Alto Stratus, the leader of the Jabiimi Nationalists. The conflict at Cobalt Station lasted for several days, and Xiss gradually began to slip to the dark side of the Force, becoming more and more brutal on the battlefield. On the forty-first day of the Battle of Jabiim, Zule Xiss was crushed to death by a damaged Republic AT-AT while attacking enemy forces. Except for Anakin Skywalker, every other member of the Pack was killed by the end of the battle, and the Republic was forced off the world only days later. The surviving Republic forces fled to New Holstice, where Skywalker added Xiss's name to a memorial for fallen Jedi. (Read more...)

Shaela Nuur
"You will accomplish great things in your lifetime, Shaela Nuur, of that I am sure&hellip;just remember to always stay in the light. Always."

- Jedi Master Ood Bnar

Shaela Nuur was a female Human who served as a Jedi Knight during the Great Sith War and its aftermath. Trained on the Jedi Order's library world of Ossus, Nuur became a strong and promising Knight under the tutelage of her Neti Jedi Master, Ood Bnar. Bnar eventually rewarded her with the Solari crystal, a powerful Force artifact that could be used in lightsabers, provided that the user was attuned to the light side of the Force. Nuur later lost both Bnar and Ossus during the Great Sith War when the planet was devastated by the Cron Supernova.

In the aftermath of the war, Nuur was selected to be a member of a team of Jedi assigned to tracking down and killing terentateks. The terentateks were ancient monsters reawakened by the instigator of the Great Sith War that were highly deadly to Jedi, as they fed on the blood of Force-sensitives. In what became known as the Great Hunt, Nuur cleansed numerous planets of the creatures alongside fellow Knights Duron Qel-Droma and Guun Han Saresh. Over the course of their hunts together, Nuur and Qel-Droma nurtured a growing romance that greatly upset a jealous Saresh. Following their cleansing of Tatooine, the Great Hunt was officially declared over; however, the Jedi Council of the Enclave on Dantooine dispatched the three to Korriban on an unofficial mission to rid the planet of any surviving terentateks.

While on Korriban, Nuur, Qel-Droma, and Saresh argued over the questionable acts that they had committed to find the beasts. The disagreement led to Saresh's departure, leaving only Nuur and Qel-Droma to hunt down the terentateks. As the two engaged one of the animals within a cave in the Valley of the Dark Lords, Qel-Droma was killed, leading a vengeful Nuur to hunt down the beast by herself. Upon finding it within the tomb of the Sith Lord Naga Sadow, Nuur was killed after the Solari crystal within her lightsaber stopped working, as she had fallen away from the light side of the Force. Her remains went untouched for decades until they were found forty years later by the Jedi Knight Revan during the Jedi Civil War. (Read more...)

Blockade of the Hydian Way


The Blockade of the Hydian Way was an offensive action against the Galactic Republic by the Mandalorian warrior clans in the final decade of the Great Galactic War. The blockade was orchestrated by the Sith Empire, which had spent years investing in the resurrection of the then-disbanded Mandalorian clans. The Empire's efforts culminated with the rise of a new Mandalore, who was little more than a puppet for the Sith government. Disaffected Mandalorians from across the galaxy rallied to the man regardless and acquiesced to Imperial demands for support in their decades-long war against the Republic. In 3,661 BBY, Mandalorian cruisers seized control of the Hydian Way, a vital trade and supply route used by the Republic for military and civilian purposes alike.

The blockade choked commerce in the Republic's private sector and prevented military wares from reaching battlefields along the Hydian Way. The Core Worlds were thrown into an economic crisis, and the Galactic Senate was deadlocked on a proper course of action. The Jedi Order eventually consented to give aid; however, their attempt at breaking the blockade resulted in a resounding failure. The blockade continued for sometime afterward until the Mirialan smuggler Hylo Visz recognized it as an opportunity for profit. Together with a band of her fellow smugglers, Visz ambushed the Mandalorian cruisers with a fleet of smuggling vessels that was soon joined by Republic reinforcements. The blockade was ultimately broken in the engagement, and Hylo Visz was able to bring her goods to Coruscant, where she was greeted as a hero. Despite the victory, the Republic was irreparably inundated following the blockade and continued to suffer heavy losses throughout the war as a result. (Read more...)

Cliffhold


Cliffhold was a spaceport city that was built directly into the face of a cliff on the Outer Rim Territories world of Iego. Founded in the later years of the Galactic Republic, Cliffhold was used by smugglers as a center for spice production. Spice convoys eventually stopped running, but a number of residents remained in the city, managing their dilapidated home. During the Clone Wars, the Confederacy of Independent Systems discovered Iego and seized the world, but abandoned it soon afterward, leaving behind a number of defunct battle droids in Cliffhold. After the Separatists' departure, the people of Cliffhold were unable to leave the planet, as their vessels were repeatedly destroyed by a LaserWeb Defense Station that had been left behind by the Confederacy. The superstitious residents believed that it was instead a malevolent spirit called Drol that was preventing them from leaving.

Later in the war, the city was visited by Jedi Generals Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi during their search for an antidote to the Blue Shadow Virus. The Jedi retrieved the antidote and attempted to leave Iego, but were stopped by the defense station. With the assistance of Cliffhold resident Jaybo Hood, the two freed Cliffhold from its fear of Drol by destroying the LaserWeb Defense grid. "Drol" returned once more when the IG-86 sentinel droid HELIOS-3D reactivated part of the laser grid and many of the abandoned Confederate forces in orbit of Iego. The people of Cliffhold contacted Kenobi and Skywalker for assistance, and the two again intervened and freed the planet. (Read more...)

Suu
"We want no trouble here."

- Suu, warning Republic clone troopers

Suu was a female Twi'lek who lived during the waning years of the Galactic Republic. Prior to the Clone Wars, Suu gave birth to two children, a girl named Shaeeah and a boy named Jekk. Around the first year of the galactic conflict, Suu married Cut Lawquane, a clone trooper who had deserted the Grand Army of the Republic. Lawquane adopted Suu's children, and together the four of them lived on and maintained a farm on the Outer Rim world of Saleucami. The war eventually turned Saleucami into a battlefield, and during a hunt for the Confederacy of Independent Systems General Grievous on the planet's surface, several clone troopers requested that they be allowed to use Suu's home to tend to their wounded captain, CC-7567.

Suu agreed and allowed for the Captain to bunk in the farm's barn. Upon discovering that Suu's husband was a deserter, the Captain stated his intentions to report Lawquane to Republic officials. Despite the tension between the two men, CC-7567 spent time with the family and came to respect Lawquane for his devotion to his wife and children. The two clones later worked together to defend Suu, Jekk, and Shaeeah when the farm's homestead came under attack from BX-series droid commandos. After the incident, the Captain told Suu that he did not plan to report Lawquane's desertion to the Army, and left the Twi'lek and her family in peace. (Read more...)

Armitage
"Hey Armitage, you think they'll rescue us? He'd probably like it. Suits his artistic temperament, right, Armitage?"

- ICO Austin, on Armitage's opinion of being stranded in the Unknown Regions

Armitage was a Human male alive during the Imperial Period. Hailing from the Colonies world of Faro, Armitage studied as an artist and planned to attend the PanGalactic Arts Conservatory on Miele Nova until he joined the Galactic Empire as an officer in the Imperial Corrections Service. Early in his career, Armitage was stationed aboard the Imperial prison barge Purge under the command of Captain Jareth Sartoris. During his time on the vessel, he had difficulty fraternizing with his fellow officers, as his artistic spirit was often at odds with their crass behavior. In 1 BBY, the Purge suffered serious damage to its thrusters while transporting prisoners to the corrections facility on the detention moon Gradient Seven, leaving the ship stranded in space in the Unknown Regions.

The Purge was in fact the prey of the seemingly derelict Imperial Star Destroyer Vector, which was being controlled by the undead victims of Imperial bioweapons Project I71A. Believing the Star Destroyer to be a ghost ship, Purge Warden Bissley Kloth ordered that a party of Imperial Corrections Officers and engineers board the warship and salvage it for usable parts. Armitage was a member of the ten-man party sent to the Star Destroyer, where he was separated from the rest of his team during his effort to avoid conversation with his colleagues. While exploring the Vector, he came upon a laboratory containing a vat filled with Human lungs that he was transfixed upon for a period of time. Before he was able to return to his team and the Purge, Armitage was killed by the Vector undead inhabitants. (Read more...)

Peppi Bow


Peppi Bow was a female Gungan shaak herder living on Naboo during the final years of the Old Republic. Shortly after the beginning of the Clone Wars, the Gungan's herd became skittish when near Naboo's eastern swamps, in much the same way they had during the Trade Federation's Invasion of Naboo ten years prior. Bow, concerned that the planet may be facing another invasion, contacted the leader of the Gungans, Boss Rugor Nass, who brought her before the Naboo Royal Advisory Council. Bow explained to the Naboo Queen Neeyutnee that she feared battle droids had returned to Naboo&mdash;fears that were dismissed by much of the council. She was later vindicated when a patrol of the Royal Naboo Security Forces intercepted a squad of Confederacy of Independent Systems droids.

Bow returned to her herd, most of which would later be killed after drinking from a river just outside of Naboo's capital of Theed. She learned from Naboo politicians Padmé Amidala and Jar Jar Binks that her animals were the victims of a Confederate biological weapon that had contaminated the river. Bow aided the two in locating the weapon's source, and after Amidala and Binks were captured by Confederate forces, she aided Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano in locating the politicians. Bow and Tano discovered that they were being held in a secret Trade Federation laboratory beneath the eastern swamps&mdash;the same laboratory where the bioweapon was developed. While Tano and Republic forces assaulted the lab, Bow waited in the swamp above to prevent any Confederate forces from escaping the battle. At the end of the raid, Doctor Nuvo Vindi, who was responsible for the bioweapon and the capture of Amidala and Binks, attempted to flee Republic forces, but was stopped by Peppi Bow after she tackled and incapacitated him.

Mandalore Defense Resolution
"Let us commit our military might to defending the Mandalorian people.''" "Defending? You mean to occupy our home! You would trample our right to self-determination." "We mean to save'' your people."

- Supreme Chancellor Palpatine and Duchess Satine Kryze

During the Clone Wars, a resolution for a military occupation of the Outer Rim world of Mandalore was introduced to and voted upon by the Senate of the Galactic Republic. The initiative was proposed in response a sudden increase of violence on Mandalore instigated by the Death Watch movement. Death Watch leader Pre Vizsla orchestrated the attacks on Mandalore in order to destabilize the peaceful New Mandalorian government led by the pacifist Mandalorian Duchess Satine Kryze. Backed by the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Vizsla was able to create the impression that Death Watch was a significant threat to both Mandalore and the Republic as a whole. This, in addition to rumors that Kryze herself was working alongside the Confederacy, prompted the Senate to call a vote on whether or not to send the Republic's Grand Army to Mandalore to restore order.

Kryze, who desperately wished for Mandalore to stay neutral in the Clone Wars, resisted the idea of an occupying force from the Republic's clone army, as she believed it would push the Mandalorian people into the arms of the Death Watch insurgency. Vizsla and the Confederate Head of State Count Dooku also shared this belief and attempted to prevent Kryze from making an appeal against the initiative to the Senate. Although their attacks on the Duchess failed, Kryze's appeal to the Senate was derailed by a holographic testimony from Mandalore's Deputy Minister Jerec, which indicated that the world was in need of Republic protection from the Death Watch. As a result of the testimony and another attempt on Kryze's life, the Senate accelerated the vote on the initiative and approved it. Jerec's testimony was later found to have been doctored, and the true recording was presented to the Senate just before the Republic peace-keeping force was dispatched to Mandalore. In light of the new evidence, the Senate voted to rescind its earlier approval of the occupation, killing the initiative. (Read more...) {| width="100%" style="background: transparent; "

Mission to Yavin 4
"Over the years, the pair became more and more ambitious, eventually undertaking a daunting mission. They set out to explore the ancient Sith temples on Yavin-Four. Their goal was to investigate the final resting place of Naga Sadow&mdash;one of the most powerful Sith Lords who ever lived."

- Gnost-Dural

In 3,756 BBY, the Human Jedi Master Barel Ovair and his Nautolan Padawan, Eison Gynt, set out on a mission to the fourth moon of the planet Yavin. The two had spent much time together exploring locations throughout the galaxy that were strong in the Force, and planned to search the Massassi Temples on Yavin 4 and delve into the tomb of the ancient Sith Lord Naga Sadow. Ovair, however, was in actuality a servant of the exiled Sith Empire, on a mission to destroy the spirits of long-dead Sith who might potentially challenge the power of the Sith Emperor upon his return to known space.

After arriving on the moon, Ovair and Gynt were attacked by Sadow's surviving Massassi warriors. Defeated, they were forced into the heart of Sadow's tomb, where they were overcome by the Sith Lord's still-lingering dark energies. Ovair was unable to accomplish his objective, and so abandoned Gynt there. Weeks later he returned to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, claiming Gynt had been killed. The young Nautolan had in fact survived, only to be possessed by Sadow's spirit and killed years later by Ovair. (Read more...)

Treaty of Coruscant
"&hellip;the singular defining event of recent years&mdash;the unprecedented peace agreement between the Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic, the Treaty of Coruscant."

- Jedi Master Gnost-Dural

The Treaty of Coruscant was the peace treaty that brought an end to the Great Galactic War in 3,653 BBY. The Galactic Republic was strongarmed into the treaty following a crippling stalemate in the war against the Sith Empire. While representatives of both factions met on Alderaan to discuss the terms of peace, the Sith Empire launched an unexpected assault on the Republic capital world of Coruscant.

Following the Sacking of Coruscant, the victorious Empire forced the Republic into a highly disadvantageous agreement. The Treaty forced the Republic to withdraw their troops and Jedi forces and abandon many long-time allies and outlying systems to their enemy. The result was an uneasy peace which allowed the Sith time to consolidate their growing power. (Read more...)

Nuvo Vindi
"One can never have too many lab rats."

- Dr. Vindi

Nuvo Vindi was a male scientist employed as a medic by the Perma families until he went missing in 32 BBY. Reappearing on Naboo as a Confederacy of Independent Systems scientist during the Clone Wars, a conflict between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy, he became obsessed with recreating the eradicated Blue Shadow Virus, a deadly water-borne plague which resulted in instantaneous death and had no known cure.

In 22 BBY, Vindi was not only able to re-engineer the virus, but also create an airborne strain he planned to release in key Republic star systems. His plot was discovered by Naboo politicians Senator Padmé Amidala and Representative Jar Jar Binks, who then contacted the Jedi Order for assistance. Vindi's laboratory was attacked shortly thereafter by Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, Knight Anakin Skywalker, Padawan Ahsoka Tano, and the clone troopers of the 501st Legion. The virus was released during the resulting battle, but a cure was quickly found, by Kenobi and Skywalker on the planet Iego, negating the threat. Vindi was then taken to the galactic capital Coruscant for trial. (Read more...) {| width="100%" style="background: transparent; "

Sacking of Coruscant


The Sacking of Coruscant occurred at the end of the Great Galactic War between the Galactic Republic and the resurgent Sith Empire. Centuries after the supposed destruction of the original Empire, a surviving faction of the Sith returned from the Unknown Regions and waged a massive war against the Republic. After decades of fighting, the Republic was overwhelmed and heavily inundated, while the Empire continued to gain ground. At what seemed to be the height of their campaign, the Sith surprised the galaxy and extended an offer of peace to the Republic. Although cautious of the Empire's intentions, the Senate of the Republic accepted the much-needed reprieve. Unbeknownst to the Republic, the Sith had no intention of allowing the war to come to a peaceful conclusion.

While Republic and Imperial delegations convened on Alderaan for treaty negotiations, a group of Sith Warriors piloted a stolen Republic ship to Coruscant, the capital of the Republic. The warriors breached the Jedi Temple and, after a violent altercation with the Jedi, were able to destroy a defense grid mainframe within. A fleet of Sith warships under the command of Lord Angral were able to descend upon the planet, bombarding the cityscape and deploying Sith troopers and warriors to the surface. Although members of the Jedi Order and the Republic Special Forces attempted to defend their capital, the Sith forces overwhelmed them. By the time the fighting had ended, the Jedi Temple had been reduced to rubble, six members of the Jedi Council had been killed, and Lord Angral had assassinated the Supreme Chancellor of the Republic.

With Coruscant securely in their grip, the Empire was able to take command of the negotiations on Alderaan, forcing the Republic delegation to sign the controversial Treaty of Coruscant. Although it brought an end to the Great Galactic War, the treaty set the stage for the Cold War. (Read more...)

Gor


Gor was a male roggwart owned by General Grievous during the Clone Wars. Grievous, who served as the Supreme Commander of the Confederacy of Independent Systems' Droid Army, kept Gor in his castle on the third moon of the planet Vassek as a guard and a pet. Around 22 BBY, the Confederate Head of State, Count Dooku, lured a Jedi-led Republic task force to Grievous's castle in an attempt to test the general's skills. Grievous ordered Gor to kill the intruders, but the roggwart was slain by Jedi Master Kit Fisto. (Read more...)

Roo-Roo Page
"Your daughter is safe now." "Do you really believe that?"

- Ahsoka Tano and Cad Bane, to Roo-Roo Page's mother

Roo-Roo Page was a female Gungan born in Jan-gwa city on her homeworld of Naboo. During her infancy, Page was discovered to be Force-sensitive, information that was eventually revealed to the Jedi Order. The Order entered Page's name into a database of all known Force-sensitive children known as the Kyber crystal, which would later be stolen by bounty hunter Cad Bane on behalf of the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Sidious during the Clone Wars. Sidious and Bane planned to kidnap the children on the crystal, but the Jedi High Council anticipated the plan and dispatched Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan, Ahsoka Tano, to Naboo after determining that Page would be one of the targets. Page was taken to safety while the Jedi set up a trap for Bane with the assistance of Page's mother. The bounty hunter arrived shortly afterward and was quickly subdued by the Jedi and taken into Republic custody. (Read more...)

Zinn Toa
"You're certain there is no child on Glee Anselm?''" "''Into the shadow of the dark side, taken the child was. Shrouded is his fate from us."

- Jedi Masters Yoda and Mace Windu, on Toa's kidnapping

Zinn Toa was a male Nautolan infant born around the time of the Clone Wars. Toa resided on the Nautolan homeworld of Glee Anselm and was at some point discovered to be Force-sensitive. This information came to the attention of the Jedi Order, which then entered Toa's identity into the Kyber crystal, a device that contained a list of all known Force-sensitive younglings in the galaxy.

During the Clone Wars, the Kyber crystal was stolen from the Order by the notorious Duros bounty hunter Cad Bane at the behest of Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Sidious. Sidious, who planned to use Force-sensitive infants to create an army of dark side spies, directed Bane to kidnap four of the infants and deliver them to a secret base on the planet Mustafar. Bane abducted Toa, but Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan, Ahsoka Tano, eventually discovered Sidious's plot and rescued Toa from Mustafar. The young Nautolan was then taken into the Jedi Order. (Read more...)

Capture of Eeth Koth
"Greetings, Jedi. It would seem once again one of your Order has lost his way. And even better, a leading member of your Jedi Council. Listen to me, Jedi. I do not care about your politics. I do not care about your Republic. I only live to see you die!"

- Grievous, in a message to the Jedi Council

Around 22 BBY during the Clone Wars, Jedi Master Eeth Koth was captured by the Confederate General Grievous during a battle deep in the Outer Rim Territories. Koth's Star Destroyer was assailed by a fleet of warships led by Grievous and was subsequently boarded by the general and his battle droid forces. While super battle droids engaged clone troopers commanded by Captain Lock on the cruiser's lower levels, Grievous made his way to the bridge alongside a contingent of droid commandos and IG-100 MagnaGuards. The droid commandos killed all of the bridge's defenders with the exception of Master Koth, who was soon defeated and taken captive by Grievous and his MagnaGuards. Koth was later displayed as a hostage in a transmission sent by Grievous to the Jedi High Council. The transmission provoked the Order's attempt to rescue Koth and capture Grievous in a conflict over Saleucami. (Read more...)

Zellos
"Imperial Grand Moff Zellos offered to spare Master Allusis if he and his brave comrades would surrender. Neither pride nor foolhardiness drove the defender's decision."

- Jedi Master Gnost-Dural

Zellos was a Human male who served as a Grand Moff of the Sith Empire during the Great Galactic War between the Empire and Old Republic. Zellos commanded the second Imperial invasion of Bothawui, a drawn-out ground assault against a guerrilla force of Republic soldiers and Jedi led by Jedi Master Belth Allusis. Despite massive Imperial advantages, the planet's Republic defenders were able to inflict considerable damage to the Sith strike force. Zellos's men eventually defeated the majority of the Republic forces, prompting the Grand Moff to offer Allusis survival in exchange for his surrender. The Jedi refused, and Allusis and his forces were massacred, but not before they managed to drive Zellos's forces off Bothawui. (Read more...)

Battle of Bothawui (First; Great Galactic War)


The Battle of Bothawui was a conflict between the Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic during the Great Galactic War. Following the return of the Empire and its initial victories in the Outer Rim Territories in the early stages of the war, the Sith Emperor turned his sights toward the Mid Rim, with Bothawui as his first target. The incursion was a disaster for the Empire, as a large Republic force was stationed over the planet, ready for the attack. However, the Empire's defeat during its first attempt at taking Bothawui provoked their second, more aggressive attack. (Read more...)

Unidentified Naboo artist
During the waning years of the Galactic Republic, a male humanoid artist lived and worked on Naboo. In his studio at the base of an abandoned castle just outside the capital city of Theed, the artist repeatedly painted images of nothing but suns and moons. While visiting a bazaar in the city during the Clone Wars, the artist exchanged brief glances with the planet's senator, Padmé Amidala. Following the encounter, the artist was consumed by visions of Amidala and her unborn twin children. For twenty-four weeks afterward, the artist painted nothing but pictures of the senator, in the hope that he would be able to understand his visions. He eventually reached an epiphany and raced back to Theed, where he saved Amidala's life during an invasion of the city by the Confederacy of Independent Systems. After the incident, the artist became intrigued by the planet Alderaan. (Read more...)

Skirmish in the Tingel Arm
"The Emperor wanted us to witness the full might of his forces before he attacked."

- Gnost-Dural

In 3,681 BBY, a skirmish occurred between the ancient Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic upon the Empire's return to known space. After hiding in the Unknown Regions for centuries following their defeat in the Great Hyperspace War, the Sith rebuilt their Empire and readied for war against the Republic. Led by a Dark Lord known as the Sith Emperor, Imperial battlecruisers appeared on the fringes of the Tingel Arm. The Republic dispatched a diplomatic convoy to meet the warships, but the convoy was quickly destroyed by the Sith forces. This battle was the first in a devastating war that came to be known as the Great Galactic War. (Read more...)

Assault on the Aparo sector
"Immediately thereafter the Sith began a full assault on the Republic allies in the Aparo sector, which fell before the Republic fleet even arrived."

- Gnost-Dural

The assault on the Aparo sector was an offensive launched by the Sith Empire in the early days of the Great Galactic War. Following the Sith's return to known space, the Galactic Republic was slow to mobilize an effective defense. As a result, the Republic's allies in the Aparo sector of the Outer Rim Territories were wholly undefended and one of the Empire's first targets. The Imperial assault on the sector was a success, forcing the Republic's allies to give in to the Sith and change allegiances. (Read more...)

Fall of Korriban
"The Republic rallied every available ship to support the fleet, leaving only a handful of Jedi security ships to patrol Korriban."

- Gnost-Dural

In the year 3,681 BBY, during the Great Galactic War between the resurgent Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic, the Outer Rim planet of Korriban fell back into the control of the Sith thousands of years after their exile from the world. Korriban was the ancestral homeworld of the Sith Order and its Empire and so became an early target for the Imperial forces upon their return to the known galaxy. As the war escalated in the Outer Rim Territories, the Republic was forced to divert vessels that would have been protecting Korriban to the battlefront in the Tingel Arm. As a result, only a small contingent of Jedi security ships remained in orbit of the world when the Sith attack began. All of the Jedi vessels were destroyed, and the Empire retook Korriban without the Republic or Jedi Council even realizing the loss. (Read more...)

Tingel Arm campaign
"The Republic fleet suddenly found itself in enemy territory, fighting desperately on all sides."

- Gnost-Dural

In the first year of the Great Galactic War, the Galactic Republic went on the offensive against the Sith Empire in a campaign in the Tingel Arm. The campaign was the result of the Empire's initial foray back into the known galaxy after centuries of exile in the Unknown Regions. Following its invasion and capture of the Republic's Aparo sector, the Empire settled into the Tingel Arm, much of which had already defected to the Sith cause. Without knowledge of the defection, the Republic called upon its navy to retake the region of space. Although they had hoped to capitalize on their alliances with the peoples of Belkadan, Sernpidal, and Ruuria in the Tingel Arm, the Republic forces instead found themselves in a battle for survival, as these worlds had already been overtaken by the Empire. Despite being reinforced with ships from the rest of the Navy, the Republic fleet was forced to withdraw when Sith forces arrived to aid their puppet governments on the Tingel Arm worlds.

Duel on Coruscant (Inter–Sith Wars Period)
"Possessed by the dark spirit of Naga Sadow, Gynt attacked his former master in broad daylight. The brutal battle between the two was staged with all of the Republic watching."

- Gnost-Dural

Around seventy-five years before the beginning of the Great Galactic War, a lightsaber duel occurred on the Galactic Republic's capital world of Coruscant. The duel was fought between Jedi Master Barel Ovair and his former apprentice, the Nautolan Eison Gynt.
