Suu Lawquane/Legends

"We want no trouble here."

- Suu, to the clone troopers.

Suu was a pink-skinned female Twi'lek who lived on the planet Saleucami during the Clone Wars. She was married to Cut Lawquane, a former Republic clone trooper, and together they had two children named Jekk and Shaeeah. During the First Battle of Saleucami, four Republic troopers found refuge in Suu's farmhouse, after their officer was shot by a Separatist commando droid. While the wounded clone was left behind to heal, the farm became under attack by several commando droids, who came from a downed escape pod laying in Suu's garden.

Early life
Around 22 BBY, Suu lived on Saleucami, a dim and arid Techno Union world. After the Battle of Geonosis, a Republic troop transport was shot down over Saleucami by Separatist gunships. The ship crashed onto the surface of the planet, but several clone troopers survived the crash, including the clone Cut Lawquane. Battle droids attacked Lawquane and his fellow clones, and during the battle, all clone troopers were killed except Lawquane, who managed to flee. After his escape from the droids, the clone became a farmer and he started a small farm of his own on the wetlands of Saleucami. He and Suu eventually married, and Cut became the adoptive father of her two children, the four-year-old boy Jekk and the five-year-old girl Shaeeah.

Hunt for Grievous


Grievous, the Supreme Commander of the Separatist Army, was attacked by several Republic starships during the First Battle of Saleucami. His Recusant-class light destroyer was heavily damaged during the battle and the General was forced to leave the ship in an escape pod. A squad of clone troopers, including Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi, Clone Commander Cody, Clone Captain Rex and were sent to the surface of Saleucami to capture the fugitive Grievous. Rex was tasked with patrolling the wetlands on BARC speeders, along with trooper Jesse, Hardcase and Kix.

However, two BX-series droid commandos armed with sniper rifles, targeted the group and shot Rex in his chest. The remaining clones destroyed both commandos and brought their wounded comrade to Suu's farm. Suu, while pointing a blaster rifle at them, asked the troopers what they wanted. Jesse explained that they are not looking for trouble, they just needed a place to tend their injured captain. Suu agreed to help and she lets them stay in the farm. Later, she brought some food to the troopers, and Suu told them that her husband is away for the moment, so he could deliver the first harvest of the season. Rex, still knowing he had a mission to complete, placed Jesse in command and ordered his men to continue the search for Grievous without him.

Attack on the homestead
"They hatched from the big egg in the field!"

- Shaeeah, after several commando droids appear out of an escape pod. At night, Rex heard an eopie entering the barn. The farmer Cut sneaked into Rex's room armed with a spear. Rex quickly drawed his DC-17 blaster pistol, but Cut disarmed him with the staff. A shock went through both men, as they saw that they were both clones. Meanwhile, Suu invited Rex to join dinner with them. While having a meal of roast nuna, the two clones discussed their heritage and individuality. Cut disagreed with Rex on many points.

After dinner, they continued the debate over a game of dejarik. Cut's children, having finished their chores, asked their father if they can play outside. He allowed it, and Jekk and Shaeeah went outside to play hide-and-seek. The kids played in the garden and suddenly, Jekk spotted a crashed escape pod. They peeked through the window of the pod, when Shaeeah accidently flipped a switch, causing the pod to power up and activate its deadly cargo of 20 Separatist commando droids. Terrified, the children ran back to the homestead and told their parents what they saw. Their father picked up a pair of macrobinoculars, and he checked the area around the house.

Cut spotted the commandos in the fields and quickly shutted off all lights in the barn, while he told Suu to take the kids upstairs. The clone barricaded the front door and armed himself with a blaster. The droids tried to infiltrate the farm through the back entrance and the windows. Several of them were destroyed by Lawquane, but the commandos now entered via the cellar. Cut became trapped under a pair of collapsed crossbeams, which fell over due to the blaster fire, and he shouted to Rex to stand ready. Rex arrived, while shooting down a number of droids. The clone dug himself out, taking out commando droids with his bare hands.

Eventually, all of the commandos were destroyed by both men, but the farm needed to be repaired after the damage it had sustained. The next morning, Rex packed his gear on a eopie and prepared to leave the barn. Suu asked him if he is going to tell the Republic about the whereabouts of her husband, since Cut has deserted the Republic Army. Rex told her that his injuries might prevent him from stating an accurate report of his mission. Lawquane thanked him for his discretion and for his help on defending the homestead.

Personality and traits
Suu was a brave woman, capable of defending the farm in case her husband left. She had some experience with weapons, since she would use a blaster rifle to scare of any would-be attackers. Suu was ready to fight for her family and she trusted and listened to her husband Cut.
