CC-8284, better known as Commander "Kyro", was a Clone Commander in the Grand Army of The Republic during the Clone Wars. In Kyros early life, he trained on the Clone homeworld of Kamino alongside his brothers, forming a short-lived bond with CT-6532 and CT-4835, both of whom would later adopt the names "Quickie" and "Onyx."

In the first year of the Clone Wars, Kyro would be deployed to the planet of Geonosis, where he would lose both Quickie and Onyx after the fatal crash of their LA/AT (Low Altitude Assault Transport). After the crash, Kyro was left alone, being the sole survivor of his platoon. Having been the platoon commander, Kyro knew exactly where the rendezvous point of the invasion was, so with his DC-15A blaster rifle, he began the long march to the front lines, taking out Battledroids and Geonosisans along the way.

In the second year of the Clone Wars, Kyro was deployed and stationed on Ryloth for most of his time, tracking down and exterminating Slavers, Smugglers, Pirates, and Separatist Spies. During his one-hundred and forty-fifth rotation, while on patrol, his platoon was ambushed. Kyro, reacting rapidly, ordered his men to blow the legs on one of their three

AT-TE's (All Terrain Tactical Enforcer), providing substantial cover. During the ambush, Kyro, and five other troopers rallied together to flank the OPFOR position, the flank was ultimately successful. Moreover, the five troopers who followed Kyro would later be formed into a Special Operations unit within Kyros platoon. They would be known as "The Black Hawks."

In the third and last year of the Clone Wars, Kyro would be transferred from the 824th Special Infantry Platoon, under the 48th Assault Battalion , to the 501st Legion commanded by Captain Rex. Kyro would aid Rex as a right-hand man during the battle for Umbara and would serve to see the death of Jedi Master Pong Krell, who was turned into Separatist. After Umbara, Kyro remained a soldier of the 501st until the invasion of Mandalore, where he requested a transfer back to his original unit, the 824th. This request was granted and as the Clone Wars ended, Kyro lived to serve both the Galatic Republic and the Galactic Empire.

Commander Kyro now serves as an Imperial Officer under the leadership of Grand Admiral Thrawn.
