CC-1004/Legends

CC-1004, also known as Gree, was a senior clone commander that led the 41st Elite (a legion out of the 9th Assault Corps) along with Jedi General Luminara Unduli during the height of the Clone Wars. He would later lead his forces into the Battle of Kashyyyk under Yoda, where he would die at his general's hand upon the commencement of Order 66. Gree kept his head shaved bald, with the exception of a double-mohawk that he dyed red.

Early career


Early in the war, CC-1004 adopted the name "Gree". The name stemmed from his new-found interest in the study of obscure alien species. The Gree were a relatively unknown species living outside the boundaries of the Republic. He reasoned that should anyone comment on his name upon hearing it, he would know he was talking with someone who shared in his intellectual pursuits. Gree's interest in alien species, however, was not limited to the vast databank libraries of Kamino.

At an unknown point during the Clone Wars, he fought at the Battle of Uba IV. As the war progressed, Gree's 41st Elite Legion saw itself become a division specializing in operations where cooperation with the locals was key. Time and again, the 41st found itself in grueling campaigns on primitive worlds. A year into the war, Gree and the 41st were involved in a grueling battle on Dinlo. Stranded on the planet, Gree and his forces were rescued by Jedi General Etain Tur-Mukan and Improcco Company.

During the protection of Trade Federation Viceroy Nute Gunray on the Republic Destroyer Tranquility, he fought alongside General Unduli and Ahsoka Tano to defeat boarding parties of Droid soldiers. After defeating them, he went back to the detention area where he guarded the prisoner with Captain Argyus of the Senate Commandos. After Tano left to help the senior Jedi battle the assassin, Asajj Ventress, Argyus shot all of his fellow commandos and attacked Commander Gree. The clone veteran eventually knocked the traitor down, though Gunray snuck up behind the Commander and knocked him unconscious. Argyus, Gunray, and Ventress were able to escape.

ARC trooper training


Midway through the Clone Wars, Gree and ninety-nine other clone commanders were pulled from their duties at the front and sent back to Kamino, where they were entered into a highly unorthodox, highly specialized training program under the tutelage of ARC Trooper Alpha-17, designed to promote independence and outside-the-box thinking among the Grand Army of the Republic's upper echelon.

Battle of Kashyyyk
As the Clone Wars reached its climax, Gree was paired with Jedi General Yoda and sent to the Wookiee world of Kashyyyk. Recognizing the severity of the mission, Gree took with him his two most distinguished divisions&mdash;Sarlacc Battalions A and B. Upon arriving on Kashyyyk aboard the Venator-class Star Destroyer Monitor, Gree had his men set up a hasty beachhead in order to prepare for the coming Separatist advance.



As the battle raged below him, Gree received an emergency protocol directly from Supreme Chancellor Palpatine himself. The initiative, officially known as Order 66, labeled all of the Jedi as enemies of the Republic. Gree moved to obey the order without question, motioning a nearby swamp trooper to assist him. However, as he and the swamp trooper raised their DC-15S blasters towards the diminutive Jedi, Yoda activated his lightsaber and spun around, decapitating both clones before they could even fire a shot.

Power and abilities
Gree was a commander but was trained to be a captain. He was an excellent marksman, as he shot Argyus's blaster rifle right out of his hand.He was a very good hand to hand fighter, knocking out Argyus with little problem.
