Characteristics

- Unknown clone assassin



In order to effectively confront their would-be adversaries, any possible advantage was carefully researched and utilized. The art of Teräs Käsi was one of the unit's basic abilities along with their enhanced speed, though it is unknown what facilitated such unusually quick movements.

Clone assassins were trained in hand-to-hand combat, and were equipped with wrist vibro-blades. They were so well trained that they were able to avoid lightsaber attacks. The assassins wore armor that was very similar to that worn by Clone Commander Neyo, with a few small exceptions.

History
"Your Jedi mind tricks don't work on me."

- Unknown clone assassin After purging the Jedi Temple, Darth Vader assigned clone assassins to protect the Jedi Communication Center that would lure the last of the Jedi in the galaxy to their demise. As a last ditch effort to save the remaining Jedi, Jedi Masters Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda infiltrated the Jedi Temple to reprogram the message. Even with their incredible prowess and greater numbers, the majority of the Corps were wiped out by the two powerful Jedi. They were also used to kill any clone that tried to leave the army.
