Tikkes/Legends

Tikkes was a Quarren Senator from Mon Calamari. He was one of the Senators who supported Finis Valorum's sanctions against the Yinchorri, and was a member of the Rim faction. He was a very wanted bounty, as many of the Galaxy's best bounty hunters, such as Jango Fett, Zam Wesell, and Bossk, tried to capture or assassinate him.

He had a good relationship with fellow Senator and Confederacy of Independent Systems member Po Nudo.



He was once met and saved by Adi Gallia, Ki-Adi-Mundi, and A'Sharad Hett from being stuck in space. He was on his way to see the Dark Woman's former sacnuary to buy for the Republic. Tikkes didn't know that he was being targeted by Aurra Sing. He survived the attempt by Aurra Sing and saw A'Sharad Hett defeat her as well.

Shortly before the start of the Clone Wars, Tikkes was implicated as being involved in a slaving ring, along with fellow Senators Bufus Ritsomas, Danry Ledwellow, and Wuja Wojaine. Tikkes was placed under house arrest, and a week later, escaped. It was later learned that he had joined the Separatist movement.

His siding with the Separatists prompted a civil war on his homeworld. He was replaced in the Senate by the Loyalist Tundra Dowmeia, a fellow Quarren who later represented the world jointly with Meena Tills. Soon, he became part of the Separatist Council.

Tikkes's final fate is unknown, but it is known that he didn't go to Mustafar with the rest of the Separatist Council.

Behind the scenes

 * In the rough draft of the Attack of the Clones script, Tikkes was named Tessek. As that was the version used by James Luceno for the Episode II references he put into Cloak of Deception, the Tessek that appears in that book is presumably now Tikkes.


 * Leland Chee has said that Tikkes did not got to Mustafar to die with the rest of the Council, and that it's possible he died during the events of the Star Wars: Clone Wars cartoon.
