Rick McCallum (+8)
"An amazing new character, portrayed by Ahmed Best, which will eventually require computer animation and post-production work. [&hellip;] He's a wonderful sidekick.

Narrator: Revenge of the Sith novelization (+6)
"The ion streaks of the escape pods spiraled through the battle that still flashed and flared silently in the void, pursued by starfighters and armed retrieval ships. Grievous nodded to himself; that should occupy them long enough for his command pod to make the run to his escape ship. As he entered his customized pod, he reflected that he was, for the first time in his career, violating orders: though he was under strict orders to leave the Chancellor unharmed, Palpatine was about to die alongside his precious Jedi. Then Grievous shrugged, and sighed. What more could he have done? There was a war on, after all. He was sure Lord Sidious would forgive him."

- General Grevious is mistaken
