Biography
"What do you have?"'' "''We've broken the access codes and powered up the droid's guidance system."

- Crys, reporting to Kenobi

Crys was the nickname of one of the many clones of the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett, which were cloned on the planet Kamino to fight for the Republic's Grand Army. Around 21 BBY, during the Clone Wars, the Confederate General Grievous escaped to the surface of the planet Saleucami in an escape pod, after a battling Republic forces in orbit above the the world. To find the Confederate General on Saleucami, Crys, Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi, Clone Commander CC-2224, nicknamed "Cody," and a group of clone troopers, ventured to the planet's surface. After landing on the planet on several Acclamator-class assault ships, the Republic forces departed to search for Grievous' crashed landing craft. The General meanwhile, had crashed with his escape pod and begun to search for a way to escape the planet. The Republic forces soon found the landing craft, and also an intact, albeit deactivated, B1 battle droid and Kenobi ordered to load the droid onboard an AT-TE walker, so his team could later preform a robolobotomy on it.

Inside the AT-TE, Crys and Cody began the robolobotomy, and the two broke the battle droid's access codes, which activated the guidance system of the droid. Just after finishing that, Kenobi appeared, and Crys, with Cody, told the Jedi Master that the droid held information of an escape pod that crashed because of a near-collision with another pod during its atmospheric descent; the other escape pod was being located by Grievous on the planet's surface. With this information, Cody was able to determine an approximately location of the escape pod that Grievous was after. After discovering the pod, Crys and the rest of the team found Grievous and his troops by the escape pod, and engaged the droid forces. While both sides fought briefly, a shuttle arrived to extract Grievous from the area. After Grievous escaped with the shuttle, Kenobi requested a transport to pick up Crys and the Republic troops.

Personality and traits
"Alert the men. Tell them, we've picked up the scent."

- Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi to Crys

Crys was able to perform a robolotomy on a B1 battle droid and successfully used this ability on Saleucami, giving the Republic troops the chance to find and engage Grievous. After completing the robolotomy, he gave Kenobi a short and useful report. On their hunt for Grievous, Crys and Cody worked close together with their superior Jedi officer and Kenobi would even give orders to his men via Crys. In combat, Crys wore a Phase I clone trooper armor with yellow markings. As a clone of Jango Fett, Crys stood 1.83 meters tall and had brown eyes. At some point, Crys dyed his original black hair blond.
