A [[Togruta]] [[Sexes|female]], Tano was discovered on her [[homeworld]] of [[Shili]] by [[Jedi Master]] [[Plo Koon]], who brought her to the [[Imperial Palace|Jedi Temple]] on [[Coruscant]] to receive [[Jedi training]]. Following the [[Battle of Geonosis|outbreak]] of the Clone Wars, Jedi [[Grand Master]] [[Yoda]] assigned the young Tano to be the Padawan learner of [[Jedi Knight]] [[Anakin Skywalker]], whom she joined at the [[Battle of Christophsis]]. Whereas Tano was eager to prove herself, Skywalker had a reputation for recklessness, and they had a rather difficult start as Master and apprentice. Yet, they worked together to [[Battle of Teth|rescue]] [[Rotta]], the son of [[crime lord]] [[Jabba Desilijic Tiure]], and [[Mission to Jabba's Palace (Clone Wars)|returned]] Rotta to his [[Parent|father]], thus facilitating a crucial [[Hutt Clan–Republic treaty|alliance]] between the [[Hutt Clan]] and the [[Galactic Republic]]. As a [[commander]] in the [[Grand Army of the Republic]], Tano found a mentor in [[Clone Captain]] [[Rex]] of the [[501st Legion]], with whom she and Skywalker collaborated to lead frontline campaigns against the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems]]. In her first command position at the [[Battle of Ryloth]], Tano disobeyed orders and lost her entire [[Blue Squadron (Galactic Republic)|squadron]] of [[Clone trooper pilot|pilots]], but she managed to rebound and helped secure a victory at [[Ryloth]]. Her assignments pitted her against a variety of opponents, from [[General]] [[Grievous]] and [[Sith apprentice]] [[Asajj Ventress]] to [[bounty hunter]]s such as [[Cad Bane]] and [[Aurra Sing]]. Over [[time]], she matured into a respected leader, contributing to key Republic victories like the [[Second Battle of Geonosis]] and the [[Battle of Mon Cala]]. She even [[Death|died]] during a [[Mission to Mortis|series of events]] on [[Mortis]], but the [[Force wielder]] known as the [[Daughter]] sacrificed herself to bring Tano back to life. Tano gained much experience on and beyond the war front, leading a group of [[Jedi youngling]]s to [[Skirmish on Wasskah|revolt]] against their [[Trandoshan]] captors, helping [[Battle of Kadavo|rescue]] a [[Artisan colony|colony]] of Togruta from [[Slavery|enslavement]] by the [[Zygerrian Slave Empire]], and serving as an [[advisor]] to the [[Onderon rebels]]—with her close friend, [[Lux Bonteri]], among them—as they [[Onderonian Civil War|liberated]] their [[Onderon|world]] from the Confederacy. In a stark turn of events, Tano was framed for the [[bombing of the Jedi Temple hangar]] and other homicides, and she [[Escape from the Republic military base|escaped]] into the [[Coruscant underworld]] to clear her name. Though she formed an unlikely alliance with Asajj Ventress, she was [[Capture of Ahsoka Tano|detained]] by Republic forces and was consequently barred from the [[Jedi Order]]. Ultimately, Skywalker uncovered the true culprit, Tano's friend, and fellow Padawan [[Barriss Offee]], and prevented his former apprentice from being [[Trial of Ahsoka Tano|convicted]] of [[Treason|sedition]]. Nevertheless, the ordeal dislodged Tano's faith in the Jedi. She refused the [[Jedi High Council|Jedi Council's]] offer to rejoin the Order, instead departing in search of a new path. After the Galactic Empire came to power, Tano went into hiding on [[Thabeska]] and [[Raada]]. Following the [[Uprising on Raada|evacuation of Raada]], Tano joined [[Senator]] [[Bail Organa]]'s growing rebel movement. She became the manager of his [[Rebel Alliance Intelligence Service|intelligence network]] and adopted the codename "'''[[Fulcrum (title)|Fulcrum]]'''." As Fulcrum, Tano provided intelligence to various rebel factions including [[Hera Syndulla]]'s [[Spectres]] rebel cell. Tano took a particular interest in Syndulla's rebels because one of their members, a former Jedi named [[Kanan Jarrus]], had begun to train his own Padawan, [[Ezra Bridger]]. In addition, Tano's efforts against the Empire brought her into [[Attack on Phoenix Squadron (4 BBY)|contact]] with Skywalker, who by then had become the [[Dark Lord of the Sith]] [[Darth]] Vader, as well as the Imperial [[Inquisitorius|Inquisitors]] known as the [[Fifth Brother]] and the [[Seventh Sister]]. Following the [[Mission to Malachor|mission]] to [[Malachor]], Tano became lost to the rubble and shadows of the [[Malachor Sith Temple|Sith temple]] and was believed by many including Jarrus and Bridger to have perished during a duel with Darth Vader. However, Tano was unexpectedly saved from Vader's wrath by a future Ezra Bridger, who pulled her through a time portal into the [[world between worlds]], a dimension of the Force connecting all time and space. After a confrontation with [[Darth Sidious]], who desired access to the dimension, Tano returned to her time, promising Bridger that she would find him once she returned. After the end of the [[Galactic Civil War]], Tano returned to a freed [[Lothal]] and joined [[Sabine Wren]] in her quest to find a missing Bridger, who had disappeared during the [[liberation of Lothal]]. ==Biography== ===Early life=== {{Quote|It was Master Plo Koon who found me and brought me to the Temple where I belonged…|Ahsoka Tano, to Anakin Skywalker|audio=PloKoonFoundMe-RM.ogg|Rising Malevolence}} [[File:Plo discovers Ahsoka.png|250px|thumb|left|Plo Koon discovering a three-year-old Ahsoka Tano]] Thirty-three [[Standard year|years]] before the [[Battle of Yavin]],<ref name="DB:Ahsoka" /> Ahsoka Tano was discovered by [[Jedi Master]] [[Plo Koon]] among her people on the [[planet]] [[Shili]]<ref name="Ultimate Star Wars" /> at the age of three and accepted into the [[Jedi Order]].<ref name="DB:Ahsoka" /> Around this [[time]], she was nearly [[Slavery|enslaved]] by an [[Unidentified false Jedi|impostor]] who intercepted the signal to the [[Jedi]] Order and who hoped to use her [[Force power|powers]] for their own ends. However, this scheme was thwarted, and Tano began her life as a Jedi.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Like all Jedi of her era, she was raised at the [[Imperial Palace|Jedi Temple]] on [[Coruscant]].<ref>{{Databank|obi-wan-kenobi-biography-gallery|Obi-Wan Kenobi Biography Gallery}}</ref> ===The Clone Wars=== {{Quote|I'm the new Padawan learner.

Yoda did this to alleviate Skywalker's fear and inability to lose loved ones, as he believed that by becoming a teacher, Skywalker would develop emotionally and understand that his excessive bonding to those he cared about was unnecessary once Tano was ready to go off on her own. However, her future choice to leave the Order further pushed Skywalker towards the [[Dark side of the Force|dark side]].<ref name="Yoda">{{Databank|yoda|Yoda|archivedate=20140703043000}}</ref> ====Battle of Christophsis==== {{Quote|You're reckless, little one. You never would have made it as Obi-Wan's Padawan… but you might make it as mine.|Anakin Skywalker to Ahsoka Tano, following the Battle of Christophsis|audio=RecklessLittleOne-TCWf.ogg|Star Wars: The Clone Wars (film)}} [[File:R2-D2 Anakin and Obi-Wan meet Ahsoka.png|250px|thumb|right|Ahsoka introduces herself to Anakin and Obi-Wan during the Battle of Christophsis.]] The Jedi Council finally sent Tano on her first mission to [[Christophsis]] in order to aid the Republic forces and finally meet her new master, as well as pass on a message that masters Kenobi and Skywalker were needed back at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. She arrived on the planet moments after the first wave of Separatist forces pulled back. After giving her message to Master [[Obi-Wan Kenobi|Kenobi]] and Skywalker, Obi-Wan introduced himself, presuming that she was his new Padawan learner. She corrected him, insisting that Master Yoda specifically assigned her to Skywalker.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> Meanwhile, the droid army set up a deflector shield that would block the artillery bombardment that earlier halted their advancements. Anakin and Ahsoka eventually set out a plan to infiltrate the enemy lines while Kenobi and his troops held off the enemy forces to buy them time. The two Jedi hid inside a box while the droid tanks moved around them. As they made their way to the source of the shield, Ahsoka tripped on a sensor antenna, accidentally activating a batch of [[LR-57 combat droid|retail droids]]. While Skywalker was occupied with the droids, Tano began to place charges around the generator. As she was planting charges, a battle droid snuck up behind her, but Ahsoka noticed it and sliced it in half. The battle droid's body rolled over more sensors and activated additional retail droids. With her master pinned down by the horde, Ahsoka noticed a piece of wall behind him with a convenient hole right where Skywalker was positioned. She used the Force to push the wall down, crushing the droids around her master.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> Meanwhile, back in the city, Kenobi had been captured by the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatist]] [[General]] [[Whorm Loathsom]]. To stall for time, Kenobi suggested the two sit down for a drink and discuss Kenobi's surrender. However, the general quickly got tired of this and saw through Kenobi's plan. Just as Loathsom ordered Kenobi's forces to surrender, the shield blew up and Kenobi was able to take the Separatist General hostage. The Battle of Christophsis had proved a major victory for the Republic.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> When the battle was over, Skywalker noted how reckless his new Padawan was. As Tano and Skywalker found themselves settled, Yoda wondered if having a Padawan would calm Skywalker's wild ways.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> ====Battle of Teth and rescuing Jabba's son==== [[File:Ahsoka_and_stinky.jpeg|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka and Rotta the Huttlet during the Battle of Teth]] After the [[Battle of Christophsis]], Skywalker and his new apprentice were dispatched to find and rescue [[Jabba Desilijic Tiure|Jabba the Hutt's]] missing son [[Rotta]], who was captured by Separatist forces and brought to the planet [[Teth]]. Rescuing Rotta was critical to ensure trade and shipping routes for the Republic through [[Hutt Space]] in the Outer Rim Territories.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> Once on Teth, it became clear that it was impossible to land at the [[B'omarr Monastery (Teth)|B'omarr Monastery]], which forced the Republic forces to land below the monastery and climb the mountain with [[All Terrain Tactical Enforcer|AT-TE]] walkers where the building was located. The climb proved to be a challenge, but the Jedi and clones eventually reached the top of the mountain.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> [[File:Ahsoka_vs_Ventress_Teth.png|thumb|right|220px|Ahsoka Tano crosses blades with Asajj Ventress.]] After securing the outer perimeter, they discovered a protocol droid caretaker called [[4-A7]], who revealed the location of the captured Hutt. Skywalker and Tano went to look for him and had to go through a few droids but eventually found the cell where the Hutt was located. Rotta turned out to be just a baby. Meanwhile, 4-A7, who was the [[dark acolyte]] [[Asajj Ventress]]' servant, recorded the Jedi's speech. Ventress transmitted the recording to her master, [[Dooku|Count Dooku]], who gave the "evidence" to Jabba that the Jedi were behind the kidnapping. Dooku assured Jabba that he would sent his army to "rescue" Rotta.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> With the incoming droid army on their way and the little Huttlet sick, the Jedi had to look for another way out to bring the kidnapped Hutt back to [[Tatooine]]. On their way out, Ventress had arrived and eventually located the two and engaged them in battle. After a brief duel, they managed go escape on a [[Can-cell]] to a nearby hangar, where a [[Twilight|ship]] was landed, followed by their [[astromech droid]], [[R2-D2]]. Once on the other platform, they encountered 4-A7 once again. However, it became obvious the droid was a spy when three battle droids came out of the ship. The Jedi destroyed the droids and hijacked the ship.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> While on the escape, Master Kenobi and Republic reinforcements had arrived with Kenobi engaging in a duel with Ventress. Now on the ship, Skywalker and Tano attempted to land on a Republic Star Destroyer, but the cruiser's hangar was destroyed, forcing the Jedi to make their way to Tatooine on their own. As the two jumped to hyperspace, Ventress and Kenobi sensed their withdrawal. Kenobi, knowing that Ventress had failed her mission and that her Master wouldn't be pleased by that, managed to gain the upper hand over Ventress until she boarded a Vulture droid to escape capture.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> Meanwhile, Tano and Skywalker found medicine for the Huttlet, which saved his life as they made their way back to Jabba's palace on Tatooine. However, as they approached Tatooine, they came under attack by two [[IG-100 MagnaGuard|MagnaGuards]] in [[Rogue-class starfighter|''Rogue''-class starfighters]]. Despite destroying the fighters, their ship was forced to crash-land in the [[Dune Sea]]. Tano, Skywalker and R2 then took Rotta across the Dune Sea to reach his father's palace. However, she and Skywalker sensed Dooku's presence.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> [[File:Truce SWDConv.png|thumb|left|250px|Tano returns "Stinky" to his father]] While Skywalker distracted Dooku, Tano and R2 took Rotta to Jabba's palace. However, they came under attack by several MagnaGuards. Tano fought the MagnaGuards, destroying them all and meeting up with her master at Jabba's palace. However, Jabba ordered their execution until he was contacted by his uncle, [[Ziro Desilijic Tiure|Ziro]]. Senator [[Padmé Amidala]] then revealed to Jabba that his uncle was working with Dooku and was the one who arranged Rotta's kidnapping. Jabba then spared their lives, and Tano and her master were picked up by Master Kenobi and Yoda.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> ====The ''Malevolence''==== {{Quote|Wait! Just because there haven't been any survivors before doesn't mean there won't be any this time!|Ahsoka Tano, to Chancellor [[Darth Sidious|Palpatine]] and [[Jedi High Council|Jedi Council]]|Rising Malevolence|audio=AhsokaBoldlySpoken-RM.ogg}} Tano, along with her master, were sent to protect the staging area in the [[Bith system]]. She and Skywalker were contacted by Master Plo Koon, who had tracked the Confederacy's [[Malevolence|secret weapon]] to the [[Abregado system]]. When Koon's transmission was lost, Tano urged her master that they send support to him, but they needed the Chancellor's and Council's permission. During the meeting, Skywalker and the Council believed that there were no survivors and ordered him to protect their convoys. Tano then spoke up and urged them to search for survivors, but she was rebuffed by the Council and the Supreme Chancellor for her outburst. Skywalker had Admiral Yularen deploy their fleet while Skywalker and Tano took the ''Twilight'' to "scout ahead."<ref name="Rising Malevolence">{{TCW|Rising Malevolence|Rising ''Malevolence''}}</ref> Despite Tano's outburst, her master agreed with her that they must search for survivors. At first they were unsuccessful and were ordered by both Kenobi and Palpatine to give up their search. Tano then sensed Master Plo and piloted the ''Twilight'' to his escape pod's location. Tano and Skywalker found Koon, Commander [[Wolffe]], Sergeant [[Sinker]] and trooper [[Boost]]. They learned from Koon that the weapon was an [[ion cannon]] mounted on an enormous ship that could disable ships. Tano then detected the ship approaching them. At first, the ship passed, but it then detected the ''Twilight''{{'s}} medical droid [[TB-2]]. They were able to escape before the [[mega-ion cannon]]'s blast wave reached them.<ref name="Rising Malevolence" /> [[File:Plo Koon and Ahsoka Tano.png|thumb|right|250px|Plo Koon and Ahsoka Tano]] Following their return to the ''[[Resolute]]'', Skywalker and Tano were given [[Shadow Squadron]] to carry out their next mission: to destroy both General [[Grievous]] and the ''Malevolence''. Tano and Koon were a bit skeptical of the plan, knowing that Grievous would be well protected by his ship's defenses. Tano and Skywalker were then informed Grievous had [[Battle of the Ryndellia system|attacked]] a medical convoy in the [[Ryndellia system]]. Skywalker deduced that Grievous's next target was the Republic's secret Outer Rim [[Kaliida Shoals Medical Center|medical center]] near the [[Kaliida Nebula]]. Tano served as Skywalker's gunner aboard his [[BTL-B Y-wing fighter-bomber]].<ref name="Shadow of Malevolence">{{TCW|Shadow of Malevolence|Shadow of ''Malevolence''}}</ref> Tano, along with her master, Koon and Shadow Squadron, took a [[Balmorra Run|shortcut]] through the nebula. Tano detected several [[Neebray]] mantas. Despite damage to one of the bombers and an astromech, Tano, Skywalker, Koon, and Shadow Squadron reached the medical station. The ''Malevolence'' then arrived, and Tano shot down several of the vulture droids despite her master's fancy flying. When Shadow Squadron started to lose more ships, Tano convinced her master to target the ion cannon instead of the bridge. They succeeded in disabling both the ''Malevolence''{{'s}} ion cannons and its hyperdrive.<ref name="Shadow of Malevolence" /> Tano, Skywalker and Koon then rejoined Kenobi aboard the ''Resolute'' as he continued in [[Battle of the Kaliida Nebula|attacking]] the ''Malevolence''. However, Tano detected a [[H-type Nubian yacht|Naboo ship]] approaching the battlefield. Tano then picked up a comm signal from the ship's pilot, Senator Padmé Amidala. When she was captured and her master decided to rescue the senator, Tano was able to scan. She was able to guide both her master and Kenobi through the ship to find Amidala and her protocol droid, [[C-3PO]], until Grievous jammed their transmissions. Tano watched as Skywalker, Kenobi, and Amidala made their escape and the ''Malevolence'' crashed into the [[Dead Moon of Antar]].<ref name="Destroy Malevolence">{{TCW|Destroy Malevolence|Destroy ''Malevolence''}}</ref> ====Battle of Bothawui and Search for R2-D2==== Following the Republic's [[Battle of Falleen|defeat]] at [[Falleen (planet)|Falleen]], Tano, Skywalker and their fleet were stationed at Bothawui to protect it. Tano agreed with Kenobi that they should retreat, but stood by her master when he refused. Tano was part of [[Resolute command|''Resolute'' command]] as Skywalker, R2, and [[Gold Squadron (Galactic Republic)|Gold Squadron]] [[Battle of Bothawui|engaged]] Grievous's fleet. As Grievous's fleet hit them, Tano then signaled Rex and his AT-TEs to open fire from the asteroids behind Grievous's fleet. Though they destroyed the bulk of Grievous's fleet, Grievous himself escaped.<ref name="Downfall of a Droid">{{TCW|Downfall of a Droid}}</ref> After Skywalker was injured after his starfighter collided with a large piece of shrapnel, he was brought to the ''Resolute'' to recover, though R2 was left behind. Tano later accompanied her master along with R2's temporary replacement [[R3-S6]] on a subsequent salvage operation to try and recover the droid, boarding a nearby salvaging ship piloted by the slimy [[Trandoshan]] [[Gha Nachkt]]. R3, secretly in league with the Separatists, activated several [[IG-88 assassin droid/Legends|IG-88 assassin droids]] which attacked the two Jedi within the ship's cargo hold. After failing to find R2, they left to continue their search, unaware that Nachkt was also in league with Grievous and was secretly hiding R2 from the Jedi. After Skywalker was caught in an ambush by Grievous as a result of R3's sabotaging, Tano and Rex were forced to rescue him. Though they once again escaped the General's clutches, they were also no closer to finding R2.<ref name="Downfall of a Droid" /> [[File:AhsokaSavesRex-DotD.png|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka duels Grievous inside the Separatist Listening Post.]] Upon receiving a transmission from R2 aboard Gha Nachkt's ship, Tano and Skywalker were able to follow the transmission coordinates the Grievous's Separatist [[Listening post]] on one of [[Ruusan|Ruusan's Moons]]. In order to avoid the station's scanners, Tano, Skywalker, R3, Rex, [[Denal]], and several other clones skydived from the Twilight onto the station's surface, gaining entry via lightsaber. Once inside, Skywalker went to rescue R2 while Tano and the clones began to plant explosives all around the station. Tano and the clones were found and attacked by Grievous, who killed all troopers but Rex and Denal. Before he could deal a killing blow to Rex, his strike was parried by Tano's own lightsaber, and the two engaged in a duel. Far outmatched by the cyborg General, Tano retreated into another room full of spare droid parts along with R3. As she hid, she contacted Rex and ordered him to proceed with the mission and continue to plant explosives while she distracted Grievous. Though she was discovered and ambushed by General thanks to the betrayal of R3, she managed to escape into the ventilation shaft and rendezvous back with the rest of the crew and the newly rescued R2. They managed to escape on board the Twilight just as the station exploded, this time with R2.<ref name="Duel of the Droids">{{TCW|Duel of the Droids}}</ref> ====Capture of Viceroy Gunray==== Following the Republic's apprehension of Separatist [[Viceroy]] [[Nute Gunray]] thanks to the efforts of Padmé Amidala and Senator [[Onaconda Farr]] on [[Rodia]], Ahsoka Tano and Master [[Luminara Unduli]] were tasked with overseeing Gunray's trip aboard the ''[[Tranquility]]'' to Coruscant, where he would be put on trial for his crimes. Several [[Senate Commando]]s under [[Captain]] [[Argyus]] were also dispatched as extra security to accompany the Jedi. Though Tano was initially skeptical of the need for so much security for just one [[Neimoidian]], Unduli assured the Padawan that his allies could easily be conspiring against them and devising a rescue plan. The [[Mirialan]] Jedi Master was indeed correct, as Count Dooku had already sent his most trusted assassin, Asajj Ventress, to extract the Viceroy and return him to the Separatists. As Tano and Unduli attempted to interrogate Gunray, with the Jedi Master chastising Tano for threatening him out of impatience, Ventress and her small contingent of Super Battle Droids breached the hull of the ship.<ref name="Cloak of Darkness">{{TCW|Cloak of Darkness}}</ref> [[File:AsajjAhsoka focus.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka duels Ventress aboard the ''Tranquility''.]]Tano was left to guard Gunray as Unduli and Commander [[Gree/Legends|Gree]] went to deal with the droids, where she was confronted by Ventress, who had slipped inside the ship undetected. The two dueled for a short time before Ventress managed to free Gunray and trap the Padawan behind an energy shield in his holding cell. Unduli arrived shortly after, freeing Tano so the two of them could duel Ventress together. However, instead of surrendering, Ventress set off several explosives which she had planted in the engine room, knocking both Jedi to the floor and escaping down the elevator shaft. Though Tano wanted to follow and confront the assassin once again, Unduli beckoned her to stay put despite her protests. Ultimately deciding to disobey Unduli's instructions, Tano arrived just in time to save the Jedi Master from certain death by Ventress's blade. United as a team, the two Jedi confronted Ventress for a second time, though she once again escaped, this time accompanied by Gunray, successfully completing her mission much to the dismay of Tano and Unduli.<ref name="Cloak of Darkness" /> ====Rescue on Vanqor==== [[File:Rex and Tano Vanqor.png|thumb|left|250px|Rex and Ahsoka during the Skirmish at Vanqor]] After her master, Skywalker, and Obi-Wan Kenobi were trapped in a cave on the [[crystal]]line planet of [[Vanqor]] after crash landing during a confrontation with the leader of the Confederacy of Independent Systems Count Dooku, Tano and a small extraction team of clone troopers were dispatched to rescue to two Jedi. Tano and her team blasted apart the collapsed cave opening in order to free Skywalker and Kenobi, who had collapsed from the fumes of a noxious green gas which they had accidentally released. They then re-sealed the cave entrance, trapping a swarm of [[Gundark]]s inside.<ref name="Dooku Captured">{{TCW|Dooku Captured}}</ref> ====Stranded on Maridun==== Ahsoka Tano and Anakin Skywalker, along with a fleet of [[Low Altitude Assault Transport/Legends|Low Altitude Assault Transport]] Republic gunships, were later sent to evacuate Jedi Knight [[Aayla Secura]] from Separatist forces after her defeat during the [[Battle of Quell]]. The two Jedi, Rex, and their clone battalion managed to board Secura's ship, the ''Resolute'', and rendezvous with the [[Twi'lek]] Jedi and her own battalion, narrowly escaping onto a docked cruiser with an injured Skywalker, who had been caught in an explosion from the Separatist attack. They were then forced to jump to hyperspace prematurely in order to escape the exploding ''Resolute'' in time, much to the alarm of [[Admiral]] [[Wullf Yularen|Yularen]]. As a result, they were forced to crash-land on [[Maridun]] in order to avoid colliding with one of its nearby stars.<ref name="Jedi Crash">{{TCW|Jedi Crash}}</ref> [[File:Ahsoka Maridun.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka helps defend the Lurmen village on Maridun.]] Stranded on the planet's surface following the explosion of their cruiser, they set up a crude camp using some parts from the wrecked ship. Fearing for her wounded master, Tano volunteered to watch over him with Rex, but Secura insisted that they instead work together to find help from the local population. Tano reluctantly agreed and accompanied Secura and Commander [[CC-5052|Bly]] to scout for help while Rex remained with Skywalker. Along the way, the young Padawan confessed to Secura her feelings of confusion towards the [[Jedi Code]] over the rule of not forming attachments yet also showing compassion. In response, Secura shared similar feelings that she used to have regarding her own [[Quinlan Vos|master]], whom she eventually was able to let go. Not long after, they were ambushed by a pack of [[Mastiff phalone]]s which killed [[Flash]], [[Lucky]], and [[Cameron]]. After a long journey, they eventually found the local [[Lurmen]] village, encountering the village elder [[Tee Watt Kaa]] and his son [[Wag Too]]. Initially, Watt Kaa refused to help the Jedi, not wanting to be involved in the war, but later agreed to send his son with Tano to retrieve Skywalker for healing on the condition that Secura remain with him as insurance. Wag Too and Tano later returned with Skywalker, and Too was able to heal his wounds using native healing oils.<ref name="Jedi Crash" /> The Jedi were later forced to leave the village after Separatist forces arrived under the command of [[Lok Durd]] in order to impose their "protection" of the Lurmen people, in order to prevent the villagers from paying the price due to their presence. As the Jedi were in hiding, they discovered a nearby heavily guarded Separatist base the the existence of a Durd's [[superweapon]]: the [[Defoliator]], which was capable of destroying all organic life. Determining that Durd meant to test this weapon on the Lurmen village, the Jedi revealed themselves to protect the villagers. At first, Tee Watt Kaa adamantly opposed getting involved, even if it meant defending his people, but changed his mind after the Jedi successfully fended off Durd's forces and saved the village from annihilation, thanking them personally for their efforts.<ref name="Defenders of Peace">{{TCW|Defenders of Peace}}</ref> ====Containing the Blue Shadow Virus==== [[File:Blue Shadow Virus.png|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka and Padmé investigating the Blue Shadow Virus]] After the sudden disappearance of Senators Padmé Amidala and [[Jar Jar Binks]] on [[Naboo]] during her investigation of a viral outbreak among the natives, Tano, Skywalker and Kenobi were dispatched to [[Theed]]. Upon arrival, Skywalker sent Tano with [[Gungan]] native [[Peppi Bow]] to investigate the swamps where Amidala and Binks were last seen. Inadvertently, they triggered a spy camera, which they managed to hide from, indicating the presence of an underground bunker beneath the swamp. Acting on the instructions of Kenobi and Skywalker, Tano infiltrated the facility by dropping a thermal detonator down one of the exit hatches, allowing for easier entrance. Tano and Rex then distracted [[Nuvo Vindi]]'s droids, allowing Kenobi and Skywalker to infiltrate the facility quietly. The Jedi captured Vindi before he could detonate the bombs inside the facility and thus release the [[Blue Shadow Virus]] into Naboo's atmosphere. However, unbeknownst to anyone, one of Vindi's servant droids had stolen one of the bombs before it could be deactivated by Kenobi and the bomb squad.<ref name="Blue Shadow Virus">{{TCW|Blue Shadow Virus (episode)|Blue Shadow Virus}}</ref> Before the facility could be properly evacuated, the servant droid activated its bomb, releasing the virus. Amidala triggered the alarm in time, shutting down the facility and preventing the virus from escaping to the outside. Ahsoka Tano, trapped inside, made it into a safe room along with several other clones, but was unfortunately contaminated. While her masters attempted to find a cure on [[Iego]], Tano and Amidala worked together to prevent any droids from escaping the facility and thereby releasing the virus into the Naboo's air. Eventually, thanks to Jar Jar Binks's clumsiness, Amidala also became infected by the virus, and her and Tano's conditions began to worsen as time went on, and many clones died. At one point, Tano collapsed and fell unconscious from the effects of the virus. Luckily, Skywalker and Kenobi were able to obtain a cure, stop the virus, and rescue Rex, Amidala and Tano.<ref name="Mystery of a Thousand Moons">{{TCW|Mystery of a Thousand Moons}}</ref> ====Battle of Ryloth==== [[File:Anakin Ahsoka Storm Over Ryloth.png|thumb|right|250px|Anakin consoles Ahsoka after the loss of her squad.]] Ahsoka Tano took command of her own squadron for the first time during the [[Battle of Ryloth]], which she participated in along with her master, leading clone pilots [[Axe (clone trooper)|Axe]], [[Slammer]], [[Kickback]], [[Tucker]], and [[Swoop]] into battle against the Separatist Blockade led by Captain [[Mar Tuuk]] over Ryloth. However, after they were ambushed by four [[Munificent-class star frigate]]s, Tano insisted stubbornly that they continue their attack rather than retreating as instructed to her by Skywalker and Admiral Yularen. After many of the clones' starfighters was destroyed as a result, Tano returned to the ''Resolute'', devastated by the loss of her squad. Her master then reprimanded her for disobeying direct orders, and though she claimed that she was only acting on his teachings, she accepted full responsibility for her actions. Though Skywalker attempted to console her, the loss of her pilots left Tano scarred and feeling incredibly guilty.<ref name="Storm Over Ryloth">{{TCW|Storm Over Ryloth}}</ref> Later, Skywalker devised a plan to ram the ''[[Defender]]'' directly into the blockade, thus taking out Tuuk in the process, and allowing the full bulk of their forces, under the command of Tano, to finish the job by taking out the rest of the blockade while Skywalker jettisoned himself in an escape pod. Tano, still affected by her losses, reluctantly accepted leadership once again, this time successfully destroying the blockade with her Y-wing squadron while simultaneously protecting the ''Resolute'' by ordering Rex and Yularen to tilt it away from the enemy fire so that only the belly of the ship was exposed. With the blockade destroyed, the Republic could begin their liberation of the Twi'lek people.<ref name="Storm Over Ryloth" /> Tano and Skywalker later assisted [[Mace Windu]] by fighting off the bombers tasked with destroying [[Lessu]] City as air support. By driving out and defeating the Separatists and [[Wat Tambor]], the Republic successfully liberated the planet from Dooku's control.<ref name="Liberty on Ryloth">{{TCW|Liberty on Ryloth}}</ref> ====First battle of Felucia and protecting the archives==== Tano, Skywalker, and Kenobi were later dispatched to [[Felucia]] to participate in the first [[First Battle of Felucia|battle of Felucia]] against the Separatist forces that had blockaded the planet. Unfortunately, they were vastly outnumbered and an evacuation squad led by Plo Koon was sent to retrieve them. Despite instructions from both Kenobi and Skywalker to retreat, Tano continued to engage the battle droids, insistent on continuing the defensive and refusing to run. However, she eventually relented after he master ordered her and her troops to get inside his gunship. Moments later, the clone turbo tank that she had previously been standing on was destroyed by the droids, making Tano realize that she would have died had she not retreated.<ref name="Holocron Heist">{{TCW|Holocron Heist}}</ref> [[File:Ahsoka and anakin.png|thumb|left|250px|Tano reprimanded by the High Council on Coruscant.]] As a result of her actions during the battle, Tano was brought before the Jedi High Council. Tano admitted that she had been wrong not to retreat immediately, stating that she had been "caught in the moment." Though Skywalker tried to take responsibility for the incident, arguing that he had given Tano "too much freedom," Master Windu dismissed his argument and had Tano sent to the Jedi archives for guard duty to work alongside master [[Jocasta Nu]], in order to allow her time to reflect on her disobedient actions. When Tano asked how long she would be on guard duty, Windu responded by extending the punishment.<ref name="Holocron Heist" /> Unbeknownst to Tano, she was about to see more action than expected as skilled bounty hunters [[Cad Bane]] and [[Clawdite]] [[Cato Parasitti]], disguised as recently deceased Jedi [[Ord Enisence]], had infiltrated the temple with the goal of obtaining a [[holocron]] from the vaults. Alerted to the presence of the infiltrators by master Yoda over her comlink, Tano confronted Parasitti, now disguised as Jocasta Nu, and engaged her in a short lightsaber battle. Tano easily defeated the inexperienced Clawdite, taking her into her custody. Unfortunately, Bane was able to complete his mission and steal a holocron. Luckily, the Jedi were given a clue towards finding him after the captured Parasitti told them that Bane's next objective involved keeper of the kyber memory crystal [[Bolla Ropal]]. As Kenobi remained on Coruscant to search for Bane, Tano and Skywalker headed to the [[Devaron system]].<ref name="Holocron Heist" /> ====Confronting Cad Bane==== Arriving in the Devaron system, Tano and Skywalker's cruiser was forced to engage Bane's Separatist fleet, as the [[Duros]] bounty hunter had already captured Ropal. Infiltrating [[Cad Bane's Munificent-class star frigate|Bane's frigate]], the two Jedi stormed the bridge, using R2-D2 to access the ship's computer to locate Ropal. Unfortunately, they arrived too late, with Tano finding only his corpse inside the detention block. The Jedi then pursued Bane into the ship's gunnery room, with the latter switching off the artificial gravity as he and his battle droids attacked. After R2 reactivated the gravity, Bane attempted to flee. Tano, not willing to let him escape, pursued him despite her master's warnings. Confronting him in a dead-end corridor, Tano managed to beat Bane in hand-to-hand combat after he disarmed her. However, as she attempted to retrieve her lightsaber with the Force, Bane suddenly grabbed her ankle and sent a paralyzing electric shock through her body, rendering her unconscious. Bane then bound her wrists with [[Stuncuffs]] and stole her Padawan [[Silka bead]] braid, holding her hostage, hoping that her master would come and try to rescue her. [[File:Ahsoka hostage.png|thumb|right|250px|Tano is held hostage by Cad Bane.]] Once Skywalker did indeed arrive, Bane blackmailed him into unlocking his stolen holocron, threatening to launch Tano into space by opening an airlock behind her. Bane opened the airlock anyway, forcing Skywalker to save his Padawan as Bane once again escaped. The Jedi escaped the exploding ship along with Rex, Denal, and several other clone troopers, completely unaware that Bane had actually killed Denal and redressed himself in the clone's armor. Tano later apologized to Skywalker for once again disobeying her master's orders, but he replied that the mission's failure was his fault and not hers.<ref name="Cargo of Doom">{{TCW|Cargo of Doom}}</ref> After returning from their failed mission, Tano and Skywalker were instructed by the Council to track down and intercept Bane on Naboo in order to prevent him from abducting one of the local Gungans, a Force-sensitive infant named [[Roo-Roo Page/Legends|Roo-Roo Page]]. Tano and Skywalker were able to ambush Bane in the infant's bedroom, with Tano confronting him with her lightsaber. After a failed escape attempt, Bane wad finally brought into custody and Page was returned to his mother. Before he was taken away, Tano reclaimed her stolen Padawan braid. Though they successfully prevented the kidnapping, there still remained several other Force-sensitive children that Bane had succeeded in stealing away, and so the two Jedi began to investigate Bane's starfighter in order to find any clues as to where he might have hidden the children. Determining that they were most likely on [[Mustafar]], Tano and Skywalker set out immediately to the volcanic planet. There, they found the children in one of [[Darth Sidious]]'s secret facilities, battling several surgery droids in order to recover the children, whom they returned safely to their respective families. After the mission, they returned to the Temple, where Tano was disappointed to learn from the Council that Bane had escaped once again.<ref name="Children of the Force">{{TCW|Children of the Force}}</ref> ====Second battle of Geonosis==== [[File:AhsokaBarriss-WF.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka and Barriss Offee during the Second Battle of Geonosis]] Along with her master, Ahsoka Tano participated in the [[Second Battle of Geonosis]] with masters Obi-Wan Kenobi, Luminara Unduli, and [[Ki-Adi-Mundi]]. The Jedi, hoping to recapture Geonosian and Separatist leader [[Poggle the Lesser]], planned a three-pronged attack against Poggle's Geonosian droid foundries. Early on in the mission, Skywalker and Tano's gunship was shot down, but the Padawan-master duo survived and continued their attack, battling the Geonosian defense line. After reuniting with Mundi and his troops, who had been separated from the main force, Tano and Skywalker began to throw [[Electromagnetic pulse]] grenades to disable the enemy cannons, enabling the AT-TEs to destroy the shield generator, which forced the remaining Geonosians to surrender. Tano and Skywalker then playfully exchanged their kill counts, though Mundi's far rivaled both of their own.<ref name="Landing at Point Rain">{{TCW|Landing at Point Rain}}</ref> Tano began to grow frustrated with Skywalker after he continually cut her off during the briefing for the next stage of the mission, believing that she had not earned her master's complete trust. After master Luminara and her Padawan [[Barriss Offee]] arrived to help plan the attack on the droid foundry, Tano and Offee were sent to infiltrate and destroy the foundry from the inside by sneaking through the underground Geonosian catacombs underneath the facility while Unduli and Skywalker engaged in a frontal assault as a distraction. Though Tano was initially annoyed by Offee's "dependable" nature due to her own feelings of inadequacy, the two Padawans quickly bonded and were able to work well as a team. Though the two Padawans were able to make it into the reactor room, they were ambushed by one of Poggle's super tanks, which promptly fired upon them. After Offee destroyed the two droid drivers, she and Tano took control of the tank, deciding to use it on the reactor, fully aware that they would likely perish as a result of the explosion. They successfully destroyed the foundry and were buried under the rubble, surviving the explosion. Tano was then able to save both of their lives by hot-wiring her comlink in order to alert Unduli and Skywalker of their location. Upon being rescued, both masters were happy to see that their Padawan's had survived. Unduli informed Tano of the fact that her master never gave up on her.<ref name="Weapons Factory">{{TCW|Weapons Factory}}</ref> ====Incident aboard TB-73==== After the successful rescue of master Luminara Unduli from the Geonosians and the subsequent death of Queen Karina the Great,<ref name="LoT">{{TCW|Legacy of Terror}}</ref> Tano and Offee were sent to transport medical supplies from Geonosis to Mace Windu on [[Dantooine]] from a station near [[Ord Cestus]] on board the medical frigate [[TB-73]]. They were, however, unaware that several Geonosian [[brain worm]]s had been smuggled inside the ship by [[Scythe]], a worm-infected clone trooper. As the worms began to infect the rest of the ship's crew, the worm-controlled clone troopers turned on the two Padawans, who were forced to defend themselves, first in the mess hall against [[Ox]] and [[Edge]] and later against [[Trap]], whom Offee was forced to kill. Tano, using her lightsaber, then killed Trap's worm, which had emerged from his mouth. In the cargo hold, Tano and Offee fled into the ventilation system after the infected clones outnumbered them. Splitting up, Tano headed towards the communication room to warn master [[Kit Fisto]] of the situation while Offee went to disable the thrusters.<ref name="Brain Invaders">{{TCW|Brain Invaders}}</ref> Upon making contact with Fisto, the [[Nautolan]] Jedi Master instructed her to dock at the medical base despite her concerns over the brain worms spreading. She also updated her master on the situation before ending the transmission. Immediately following her message, she was suddenly ambushed by Barriss Offee, who had been infected by one of the worms on her way to the reactor room. The two fought each other as Tano tried in vain to break the creature's influence over her friend's mind. After a short confrontation, Tano once again escaped into the ventilation system, now the only individual on the ship not under the control of the worms. After learning that the worms were in fact affected by cold temperatures from Skywalker over her comlink, Tano ruptured the coolant system, weakening the brain worms. Offee once again confronted Tano on the bridge, though Tano managed to fight her off, temporarily releasing Offee from the brain worm's influence with a blast from a ruptured coolant pipe. Though Offee begged Tano to kill her, the Padawan instead killed her brain worm as it emerged from Offee's mouth. As the ship docked in the medical base, Fisto entered the freezing ship to find a barely conscious Tano cradling her unconscious friend. The two Padawans were then taken to the medical bay to recover from their ordeal. As Tano pondered what might have happened if she had killed Offee, Skywalker attempted to console her, believing that she did the right thing to save her friend.<ref name="Brain Invaders" /> At the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, Tano along with Offee watched a transmission of General Grievous and his MagnaGuards torturing Master [[Eeth Koth]]. Tano and Offee comforted several of the younglings when Koth screamed in pain. She and Offee then took the younglings away at Master Yoda's request.<ref name="Grievous Intrigue">{{TCW|Grievous Intrigue}}</ref> ====An important lesson==== Sometime later, Tano and Skywalker were in pursuit of wanted [[Weequay]] arms dealer [[Car Affa]] within Coruscant's slums. Tracking the criminal to a run-down bar, her master instructed her to wait while he apprehended him. Due to Affa's sudden arrest, a large crowd of patrons swarmed from the bar, and in the commotion that followed, the small [[Patrolian]] [[Bannamu]] managed to steal the Padawan's lightsaber from her hip. Ashamed, Tano could not bring herself to admit to Skywalker that she had lost her weapon and immediately headed to the archives in the hopes of tracking down her thief once they reached the temple. There, she met the elderly Jedi Master [[Tera Sinube]], who agreed to help her locate her missing lightsaber. At first, Tano was frustrated with Sinube's preference of patience over speed, but grew to accept and respect the old Jedi Master's methods. Eventually, they found the lightsaber in the possession of underworld criminals [[Cassilyda Cryar|Cassie Cryar]] and [[Ione Marcy]]. Tano engaged with Cryar in a wild foot chase throughout the city, though the [[Terrelian Jango Jumper]] was too quick for the young Padawan and managed to escape.<ref name="Lightsaber Lost">{{TCW|Lightsaber Lost}}</ref> ====An unlikely alliance==== During the investigation of a missing medical base over Felucia, Tano, Skywalker and Kenobi instead found a Separatist Vulture droid base. After being attacked by a swarm of Vulture droids, the three Jedi were forced to crash-land their shuttle onto the planet's surface, where they discovered a small Felucian village. Though it initially appeared deserted, they soon discovered a group of farmers in hiding, under the protection of a group of bounty hunters.<ref name="Bounty Hunters">{{TCW|Bounty Hunters (episode)|Bounty Hunters}}</ref> ====The hunt for Aurra Sing==== After Ahsoka Tano and master Plo Koon rescued Skywalker and Mace Windu on Vanqor,<ref name="R2 Come Home">{{TCW|R2 Come Home}}</ref> Tano and Koon journeyed into the Coruscant underworld to find a lead on bounty hunter [[Aurra Sing]] after the Jedi received a threatening transmission from her and a young [[Boba Fett]], hoping to track her down.<ref name="Lethal Trackdown">{{TCW|Lethal Trackdown}}</ref> ====Rescuing Papanoida's daughters==== After Chairman [[Notluwiski Papanoida]]'s two daughters [[Che Amanwe Papanoida]] and [[Chi Eekway Papanoida]] were kidnapped by the [[Trade Federation]], Ahsoka Tano teamed up with [[Pantoran]] senator [[Riyo Chuchi]] to help rescue them from custody.<ref name="Sphere of Influence">{{TCW|Sphere of Influence}}</ref> ====Undercover on Mandalore==== Not long after, Tano was dispatched to [[Mandalore]] on an undercover mission to help educate Mandalore's youth on the basics of lawful and public-serving conduct.<ref name="The Academy">{{TCW|The Academy}}</ref> ====Return of Aurra Sing==== Following her mission to Mandalore, Tano was commended by the Jedi Council for her actions. However, the Council ordered her to remain at the Temple while her master commanded the [[Third Legion|3rd Legion]] on [[Balith]] to assist with its [[Balith civil war|civil war]]. Tano then had a disturbing dream about Aurra Sing,<ref name="Assassin">{{TCW|Assassin (episode)|Assassin}}</ref> who she thought had perished on [[Florrum]].<ref name="Lethal Trackdown" /> The visions then showed that Sing was targeting Senator Amidala.<ref name="Assassin" /> Tano then warned Amidala that she was being targeted by Sing. Despite her warning, Amidala then continued to prepare for her speech at [[Alderaan]]'s [[Alderaan Refugee Conference|Refugee Conference]]. However, Tano was allowed to accompany her to the conference as additional security. After their arrival, Tano then saw the location of Sing's attack on Amidala. Tano warned her and Captain [[Gregar Typho]] of this. When the conference started, Tano found Sing and stopped her attempt. However, Sing escaped when Tano pursued her.<ref name="Assassin" /> Despite Tano's and Organa's pleas for Amidala to return to Coruscant, she chose to stay and resume her speech. However, she used a [[BD-3000 luxury droid]] to deliver her speech. However, Tano sensed that Sing was not deceived and was able to find Amidala in her room. Tano then rushed and deflected the blast. She then pulled Sing down out the vent. Tano fought her until Sing knocked her out. However, Amidala was able to stun Sing. Tano and Amidala then returned to Coruscant, where Tano identified Sing's employer as Ziro the Hutt,<ref name="Assassin" /> who wanted her dead due to her interference with his plans earlier in the war.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> ====Experiencing politics==== Tano watched a session of the Senate as they debated [[Republic financial reform bill|deregulating]] the banks to fund the creation of more clone troopers. Tano had difficulty understanding the politics behind the war. Tano was left with Amidala by her master so that she could try to understand politics. Tano then allowed Amidala to use her status as a Jedi to go behind enemy lines and speak with her mentor, Senator [[Mina Bonteri]] of [[Onderon]] of the [[Separatist Senate]] on [[Raxus]].<ref name="Heroes on Both Sides">{{TCW|Heroes on Both Sides}}</ref> Together, they ventured to Raxus. In [[Raxulon]], they met Bonteri and went to her [[Mina Bonteri's house|home]]. There, Tano met Bonteri's son, [[Lux Bonteri|Lux]]. She spoke with Lux about their differences and her meeting with other Separatists such as Ventress and Grievous. Tano then attended a session of Separatist Senate at their [[Separatist Senate Building|Senate Building]] and watched as the Senate voted to open [[Confederate–Republic peace initiative|negotiations]] with the Republic. Tano and Amidala then returned to Coruscant, where they informed Chancellor Palpatine of their negotiations. However, the banks were deregulated when there was an [[Bombing of Coruscant's central power distribution grid|attack]] on [[Central power distribution grid|the power generators]]. She also learned that her master knew of their mission, and scolded her because it was reckless of her. Tano, however, learned that the politics behind the war were not as black and white as she thought.<ref name="Heroes on Both Sides" /> ====Journey to Mortis==== Tano, along with her masters Skywalker and Kenobi, was then sent to rendezvous with Captain Rex to investigate a 2,000-year-old distress signal in the [[Chrelythiumn system]]. There, they were brought to the planet [[Mortis]],<ref name="Overlords">{{TCW|Overlords}}</ref> where Tano had a brief brush with the dark side after being infected with it by the [[Son]]. She even [[Death|died]], but the [[Daughter]] resurrected her.<ref name="Altar of Mortis" /> ====Continuation of the war==== During the next two years,<ref name="AEYNTK" /> Tano and her master achieved many things during the war including the freeing of Togruta slaves,<ref name="Escape from Kadavo">{{TCW|Escape from Kadavo}}</ref> saving her Master and many others on multiple occasions, and even halting a plot masterminded by Darth Sidious himself. She also engaged some of most deadly people in [[the galaxy]], most notably Asajj Ventress, General Grievous, and Cad Bane several times, always surviving without any serious injury. Tano formed close bonds with many members of the Order, which included Plo Koon, Barriss Offee and Obi-Wan Kenobi, as well as people outside the Order such as Padmé Amidala and Lux Bonteri, to whom she developed a romantic attraction.{{Fact}} ====Skirmish on Coruscant==== {{Quote|Ahsoka... what happened?.''"<br />"''Let's just say there some complications.|Anakin and Ahsoka|The Padawan Path}} [[File:Ahsoka The Padawan Path.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka runs into some complications on her way to the Jedi temple]] In the later part of the Clone Wars, Tano was out on a patrol throughout the busy streets of Coruscant, when she heard Skywalker's booming voice crackle through her comlink demanding she get back to the Jedi Temple for a [[Unidentified Jedi ceremony|ceremony]] in which she was to take part. As she approached the temple, she heard a large crowd screaming for help. Within an instant the Togruta Jedi turned around and followed the sounds of their screams to help them. Upon turning the corner she witnessed [[Unidentified Aleena mother|a female]] [[Aleena]] and [[Unidentified Aleena child (Coruscant)|her child]] being attacked by a [[Unidentified industrial cleaning droid|rogue droid]]. Immediately she noticed that some of its wiring was exposed. She at first utilized the Force to throw a crate towards it, to get its attention. As it approached her underneath residential water pipes, Tano ignited her dual lightsabers. She sprinted towards it, slicing one of its legs off, and proceeded to jump up and sever the water pipes. Water gushed down onto the droid, causing it to break down. The Padawan checked to see if the mother and child were okay, before she suddenly remembered the ceremony that she was already late for. As she eventually arrived at the Jedi Temple, she met Skywalker and Yoda by the [[Great Tree (Coruscant)|Great Tree]]. As the ceremony began, Master Yoda stated that Tano was humble and brave, which he thought of as a sign of maturity. He went on to say that she was on the right path to becoming a Jedi Master, before awarding her with an add-on to her [[Padawan braid]].<ref name="The Padawan Path">{{FOD|The Padawan Path}}</ref> ====Training Onderon's Rebels==== Tano, along with her master Skywalker, Kenobi, and Captain Rex by the Jedi Council to train and assist the [[Onderon rebels|rebels]] of Onderon in their fight against King [[Sanjay Rash]] and his Confederate occupation forces. There, she met up with rebels' leaders, [[Steela Gerrera]], her brother [[Saw Gerrera|Saw]], and former junior senator Lux Bonteri. She, and her fellow Jedi were successful in teaching the rebels in fighting the battle droids.<ref name="A War on Two Fronts">{{TCW|A War on Two Fronts}}</ref> After infiltrating [[Iziz]], Tano was left behind to continue acting as liaison between the Rebels and the Jedi.<ref name="A War on Two Fronts" /> With the rebels, Tano, Bonteri and the Gerrera destroyed the power generator to disrupt the battle droids.<ref>{{TCW|Front Runners}}</ref> Tano then assisted the rebels in rescuing King [[Ramsis Dendup]] and Saw from their execution. However, she exposed the Jedi's presence.<ref name="The Soft War">{{TCW|The Soft War}}</ref> ====Bombing at the Jedi Temple==== Towards the end of the war, when Tano was at the age of 16,<ref name="AEYNTK" /> her friend Barriss Offee,<ref name="The Wrong Jedi">{{TCW|The Wrong Jedi}}</ref> who believed the Jedi Order had become evil, corrupt and overly belligerent during the war, secretly orchestrated the [[Bombing of the Jedi Temple hangar|bombing]] of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, killed the bomber, [[Letta Turmond]], and caused the deaths of [[clone trooper]]s while framing Tano for these crimes.<ref name="The Jedi Who Knew Too Much">{{TCW|The Jedi Who Knew Too Much}}</ref> While running away from Republic authorities and Skywalker, who still believed her to be innocent, Tano met her longtime nemesis Asajj Ventress and briefly allied with her, since both were on the run from their masters. Tano was led by Offee, the only Jedi whom she still saw as an ally, into a trap at an abandoned Coruscant warehouse in Coruscant's [[Coruscant underworld|undercity]], where she was captured by Skywalker's forces.<ref name="To Catch a Jedi">{{TCW|To Catch a Jedi}}</ref> The [[Jedi High Council|Jedi Council]] then expelled Tano from the Jedi Order and turned her over to the Republic for [[Trial of Ahsoka Tano|trial]], where she was prosecuted by Admiral [[Wilhuff Tarkin]] and defended by Senator Padmé Amidala. Tano came very close to a conviction and death sentence, but due to the tireless efforts of her master, she was acquitted at the last moment by the forced confession of a captured Offee.<ref name="The Wrong Jedi" /> ====A new path==== {{Quote|I'm sorry, Master, but I'm not coming back.|Ahsoka Tano, to Anakin Skywalker|The Wrong Jedi}} Following her trial, Tano was personally pardoned by the Jedi Council. Plo Koon apologized to her on the Council's behalf, stating they had been wrong to question her loyalty. The Council also stated that the Force worked in mysterious ways and therefore considered her ordeal in hindsight as being her [[Jedi Trials|great trial]], making her a greater Jedi and proving herself worthy of the title of Jedi Knight.<ref name="The Wrong Jedi" /> However, the events surrounding her expulsion and trial had severely shaken Tano's faith in the Jedi.<ref name="Ultimate Star Wars" /> As a result, she refused to accept their invitation to rejoin the Order, and left to discover a new purpose for herself.<ref name="DB:Ahsoka Gallery">{{Databank|ahsoka-tano-biography-gallery|Ahsoka Tano Biography Gallery|archivedate=20170504183022}}</ref> [[File:Ahsoka leaves.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka Tano walks away from the Jedi Order.]] Tano's departure from the Jedi Order had a deep impact on those she knew. During a quest to discover the secrets of [[Force spirit|immortality]], Yoda was faced with visions of the [[Jedi Purge]]. In one such vision, he saw Tano dying in the halls of the Jedi Temple, with the vision of her asking if she could become one with the Force after being expelled from the Jedi Order.<ref name="Destiny">{{TCW|Destiny (episode)|Destiny}}</ref> The vision of Tano was a result of Yoda's guilt over having placed her on the path that led to her departure.<ref name="Yoda's Vision Q&A">{{SWYoutube|t-1dYU_PHaI|Yoda's Visions: The Clone Wars - The Lost Missions Q&A}}</ref> Tano's former mentor Skywalker was particularly affected by her departure and felt even more alone in having to fulfill the expectations of being the prophesied [[Chosen One]].<ref name="Ultimate Star Wars" /> Her departure also intensified Skywalker's frustration with the Council, as he felt they had betrayed her and left her with no choice by turning their backs on her during her trial.<ref name="backstories">''[[Darth Vader: Sith Lord]]''</ref> Kenobi disagreed with Skywalker's opinion, asserting that it had been Tano's decision to leave and that she had allowed her emotions to influence her judgement, something against the Jedi way.<ref name="In Search of the Crystal">{{TCW|In Search of the Crystal}}</ref> ====Dawn==== =====The last meeting===== In the last weeks of the Clone Wars, approximately a year after she left, Tano discovered the whereabouts of the former [[Sith Lord]] [[Maul]], who had taken over Mandalore and gained leadership of [[Death Watch]]. Shortly before establishing a siege to Mandalore, Skywalker and Kenobi were called back to Coruscant to [[Battle of Coruscant|save Chancellor Palpatine]], who had been abducted by General Grievous.<ref name="ShroudofDarkness">{{Rebels|Shroud of Darkness}}</ref> Unable to use the help of her former masters, Tano was given the possession of her old lightsabers, and the command of an army of clone troopers led by Rex. Unbeknownst to Tano, this would be the last time she would ever see Skywalker as a friend.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> =====Maul===== While Skywalker and Kenobi set out to rescue the chancellor, Ahsoka Tano, with Rex at her side, led the [[Siege of Mandalore]]. After a lengthy battle against Maul's forces, she eventually ended up engaging the former Sith in a [[lightsaber duel]]. As the two fought, Maul taunting her for her self-imposed exile from the Jedi Order, Tano lured Maul into a plaza where her comrades trapped him in a [[ray shield]].<ref name="Ahsoka" /> =====Fall of the Jedi===== However, all the efforts of Tano and her allies were undone when Chancellor Palpatine, who was actually the Sith Lord Darth Sidious, enacted [[Order 66]], a command that turned the clones against the Jedi and nearly wiped out the entirety of the Jedi Order, including Tano's former mentor Plo Koon. As a result, the clone troopers under Tano's command turned on her, with the exception of Rex, who had previously removed his inhibitor chip, an organic brain implant that compelled each clone trooper to comply with Order 66. As a result, Maul was able to escape once again. Tano and Rex, now fugitives and enemies of the Republic, were forced to fake their own deaths and go into hiding.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Neither were aware that Tano's former master, Anakin Skywalker, had turned to the dark side of the Force and massacred the entire Jedi Temple under the new name of "Darth Vader."<ref name="DB:Vader">{{Databank|darth-vader|Darth Vader|archivedate=20170703151730}}</ref><ref name="Episode III">[[Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith|''Star Wars'': Episode III ''Revenge of the Sith'']]</ref>During the last days of the Clone Wars, Darth Sidious used Skywalker's frustration with the Jedi Council, as well as his fear of losing his wife in childbirth, to lure him to the dark side.<ref name="Episode III" /> Following the destruction of the Jedi Order, Tano was listed among the presumed survivors of the purge.<ref name="Dying Light I">''[[Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith 7]]''</ref> ===Age of the Empire=== ====Life on Thabeska==== After fleeing Mandalore, Tano went into the [[Outer Rim Territories|Outer Rim]] in order to hide from the Empire. She traveled to [[Thabeska]], which was a planet in control of the [[Fardi clan]], a powerful family of smugglers who hid their operations from the [[Galactic Empire|Imperials]] by also running several legal businesses to cover the illegal ones. Upon arriving on Thabeska, Tano was greeted by several young girls who showed her where she could find food and a place to stay, and introduced her to [[Fardi]], who bought her ship for a less than reasonable price. She later discovered that these girls were Fardi's daughters and nieces, and that Fardi was their family name. The girls had taken her under their wing, and Tano secured herself a place working for Fardi once the girls learned that she was a good mechanic. Under the assumed name Ashla, Tano worked for the Fardi family for several months, earning some money while she continued to grieve the loss of the Republic, clones, and the Jedi Order.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Two months before [[Empire Day]], the first anniversary of [[Galactic Emperor|Emperor]] Palpatine's rise to power, Tano was working on some droids in the shipyard on Thabeska, when she noticed some of the Fardi children playing with some crates. When one of the crates began to fall on the children, Tano used the Force to keep the crates from hitting them. Tano had kept her Jedi powers a secret since leaving Mandalore, and feared that she had revealed herself to the children. She reminded them that they should not have been playing near the crates, and they begged her not to tell Fardi, ignoring the supernatural incident they had just witnessed. Only young [[Hedala Fardi]] looked at Tano with fascination, and Tano later discovered Hedala lifting some small stones using the Force, revealing herself to be [[Force-sensitive]].<ref name="Ahsoka" /> On Empire Day, Tano was informed by the Fardi girls that their father was having important Imperial guests over for dinner and that they wanted to meet anyone who was new to the planet. The girls offered for Tano to come and sit with them at the Empire Day parade and flyby, and told her about how security was a disaster due to the high amount of ships in the shipyard. Tano took this invitation as a subtle warning and opportunity to escape the planet, and Tano used this opportunity to her advantage. She gathered the belongings she had and escaped the city, stealing one of Fardi's ships and leaving the planet. Once in orbit, Tano remembered Hedala Fardi and the danger that she was in, being a Force-sensitive child who would likely be sought out by the Empire, but Tano knew that she was too late, so she left.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> ====Raada==== =====A pastoral refuge===== [[File:FFG-Ahsoka-green-lightsabers.jpg|thumb|right|220px|Ahsoka Tano, Jedi refugee]] Tano found herself on the remote agrarian moon of [[Raada]] in the Outer Rim. Tano landed the Fardi ship at the planet's main settlement. Under the alias of Ashla, Tano befriended a local girl named [[Kaeden Larte]], who was part of a farming community. Kaeden allowed Tano to move into her older sister [[Cietra]]'s abandoned home. Tano agreed to work as a mechanic repairing droids and other machinery in return for ration packs. While adjusting to her new surroundings, Tano reminisced about her droid friend R2-D2 and having to hide her Force powers. The following day, Kaeden hired Tano to repair her thresher. While repairing the machinery, Tano learned more about Kaeden's life and work as a farmer and considered settling on the remote moon due to the lack of an Imperial presence. After repairing Kaeden's thresher, Tano explored the town and sighted several nearby hills and caves which she identified as a potential hiding place.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> On her third day on Raada, Tano took the opportunity to explore the hills and caves ringing the settlement. She found a cave which she identified as her hiding place. Tano later met with Kaeden, her sister [[Miara Larte]] and several local friends including the farmer [[Tibbola]], the work crew leader [[Vartan]], and the twins [[Hoban (farmer)|Hoban]] and [[Neera (farmer)|Neera]] at [[Selda's cantina]], which had the best food in the settlement. The cantina was owned by the Togruta bartender [[Selda]] and run by the [[Sullustan]] woman [[Malat]], who reminded Tano of Jedi Master Plo Koon. While socializing with her hosts, Tano learned that Kaeden and Miara were orphans who had lost their parents in an accident. Vartan had adopted the two girls. When Kaeden asked "Ashla" about her family, Tano claimed that she was adopted. When Selda asked Tano if she was part of the influx of [[alien]]s that had migrated out of the Core Worlds, Tano claimed that she was not running from anything but only longed for quiet. Selda advised her to talk to him or Vartan if she encountered any changes.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> As time passed, Tano became the settlement's mechanic and repaired numerous broken threshers and other farming equipment. Kaeden and Miara came to regard "Ashla" as an adopted family member and regularly visited Tano to chat and deliver gifts including a door lock. Despite the friendship of the Larte sisters, Tano decided that she had grown bored with her new rustic, backwater adopted home. One free day, she packed up some supplies and went to meditate in the caves alone. Tano sensed a disturbance in the Force and witnessed the arrival of an [[Imperial-class Star Destroyer|Imperial Star Destroyer]] above the settlement. The Imperial official [[Jenneth Pilar]] had decided to exploit Raada as a source of crops for the [[Imperial Military]]. Despite panicking, Tano decided that the Empire had not come to hunt her.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Tano traveled to Selda's cantina and discussed the arrival of the Empire with Kaeden and her friends. Miara speculated that the Empire had come to explore the possibility of growing crops on Raada. The arrival of Imperial rule saw the introduction of new restrictive measures including night curfews, rules forbidding large group meetings, and restricting cantinas' operating hours, food, and alcohol. In response, Tano advised her friends to start stockpiling rations. While several Imperial personnel visited the cantina, Tano and her friends avoided contact with the Imperials by playing a game of [[crokin]].<ref name="Ahsoka" /> =====Sowing seeds of rebellion===== The following day, Tano was visited by a pair of stormtroopers who attempted to conscript her into the food production. However, Tano used a [[mind trick]] to convince the stormtroopers not to reassign her. After evading the stormtroopers, Tano headed to the caves to hide her rations. Tano then headed to the spaceport to retrieve her starship. After haggling with an Imperial officer, she manage to hide her freighter in a nearby gully. To ensure a quick escape, she positioned the starship's nose upwards towards the sky.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Later, Tano met up with Kaeden, Miara, and the other farmers at Selda's cantina where they learned that Malat and [[Malat's husband|her husband]] had migrated to [[Sullust]]. Tano also learned that the Empire had added two hours to every shift, much to the resentment of the farmers. Tano and her friends were present when a drunken Tibbola got into a scuffle with an Imperial officer. The Imperial officer overpowered Tibbola and ordered a stormtrooper to shoot the farmer dead. Following the incident, Tano advised the farmers to resist the Empire by slowing down crop production since they lacked the weapons to expel the occupiers. She also encouraged the farmers to form a [[Raada resistance|resistance movement]] from among the work crews.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> For the next two weeks, Tano spent her days smuggling food, medical supplies, and water recyclers out to the caves. Tano was aided by the bartender Selda and several local vendors. In response to the slow production, the Imperials extended the farmers' work shifts without increasing food rations, water, and breaks. Vartan discovered that the Empire was growing a new artificial crop on Raada that leached the planet's soils, preventing the farms from growing more crops. This fueled local resentment against the Empire since Raada had little arable land. Tano convinced Vartan to lend her Miara and Kaeden, whom she recruited for assembling bombs that were to be used to attack Imperial forces. After several days, Vartan had recruited forty farmers including Hoban into the resistance movement.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Later, Tano led a team consisting of Miara, Neera, and the [[Rodian]] [[Kolvin (Rodian)|Kolvin]] on a mission to plant the corrosive charges on the Imperial walkers stored at the Raadian shipyard. Due to the weak stormtrooper security, Tano and her team infiltrated the spaceport easily. While planting charges, Tano discovered that Miara had smuggled a real bomb. After evading stormtrooper sentries, Tano and her team headed back to Selda's cantina. There, she discovered that Vartan had sent Hoban and Kaeden on an unsanctioned mission to attack the Imperial admin building. Since the uprising was premature, Tano urged the farmers to return home and to disavow any knowledge of what had happened that night. However, Miara refused to abandon her older sister. A reluctant Tano agreed to rescue Kaeden and the others but warned Miara to follow her orders and bring the explosives.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> =====An abortive uprising===== As they headed towards the Imperial admin building, Neera revealed that Hoban had split the resistance fighters into three groups and that they had taken most of the explosives and blasters. Tano ordered Miara to hide in the caves and Neera to bring the remaining resistance fighters to the caves. Tano decided to disable the Imperial tanks. When Miara asked "Ashla" what she was going to do, Tano responded that she would head to the thickest part of the fighting and evacuate as many people as she could. Tano also confided that she was a veteran of the Clone Wars.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> After separating from Miara, Tano and Neera headed to the Imperial compound. Hoban's ill-equipped peasant fighters had been repelled by the garrison's heavy artillery and the five remaining survivors including Hoban and Kaeden were pinned down by enemy fire. While Neera rounded up the surviving farmers, Tano planted explosives behind the Imperial tanks. These explosives did not destroy the tanks but immobilized them. With the Imperial advance halted, Tano took the opportunity to lead the five survivors to safety. Tano managed to knock a stormtrooper to the ground and stole his blaster. While fleeing the fighting, Tano and the farmers were blocked by a row of stormtroopers. Hoban surrendered but was gunned down by the stormtroopers.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Before the stormtroopers could execute the remaining survivors, Tano used the Force to fling the stormtroopers' blasters to the ground. Tano and the Raadian farmers then fled to the caves. With little choice, Tano revealed her identity as a former Jedi apprentice to Kaeden and the other farmers. Kaeden was angry with Tano for not revealing her Jedi identity since she could have saved Hoban's life. Following the failed uprising, Tano considered leaving to avoid drawing further attention from the Empire. While meditating, Tano was interrupted by Miara, who informed her that her sister Kaeden had left the caves and headed back to town. Tano instructed Miara to stay in the caves while she went to find Kaeden.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Meanwhile, Kaeden returned to her home only to be captured by eight stormtroopers. Despite being tortured, Kaeden refused to reveal Tano's name and the location of her fellow rebels. Kaeden managed to infiltrate the Imperial admin building and retrieve Kaeden from her cell. Using her Force powers, Tano managed to carry Kaeden out of a high window. After escaping to the outskirts, Kaeden told Tano that the Imperial commander had taken an interest in her and advised her to leave offworld. Kaeden thanked her for helping them and Tano promised that she would return.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> ====Return to the Fardis==== Tano's presence on Raada drew the attention of both the Galactic Empire and Senator [[Bail Organa]], an old friend of the Jedi. The Empire also dispatched an [[Inquisitorius|Inquisitor]] known as the [[Sixth Brother]] to Raada to draw her out of hiding. Meanwhile, Senator Bail Organa took an interest in reports of Jedi activity on Raada and contacted Captain [[Raymus Antilles]] to retrieve R2-D2 for a secret mission to find Tano. After retrieving R2-D2, Organa hired the [[pilot]]s [[Chardri Tage]] and [[Tamsin]] to find Tano and then contact him to arrange a rendezvous. Organa believed that the former Jedi would make a worthy ally in the rebel movement he was building.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> After traveling through seven systems and hearing reports about Imperial oppression on the [[Wookiee]] homeworld of [[Kashyyyk]], Tano decided to returned to Thabeska in order to check on the Force-sensitive Hedala Fardi. Upon landing in the Fardi shipyard, Tano was greeted by the Fardi patriarch who told her that she was always welcome to work as a mechanic for his family. The Fardi patriarch also told Tano that his daughters missed her and invited her for dinner. Tano was greeted by the now five-year old Hedala, who confided that she had sensed a "shadow" while Tano was away. While having dinner, Tano chatted with the older Fardi sisters [[Chenna Fardi|Chenna]] and [[Makala Fardi|Makala]] about life while taking care not to disclose her adventures on Raada. "Ashla" claimed that she had seen people suffering in the galaxy, but there was nothing she could do about it. Tano also remarked that it was difficult for her to hide since she stood out as a Togruta.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Over the next five days, Tano spent her time working on a large Fardi transport, turning the engine and installing a new compressor. When she managed to find time alone with Hedala, Tano asked the little girl about the shadow. Hedala explained that she never saw the entity but could sense its presence. Hedala also mentioned that the shadow had one day mysteriously disappeared. Tano believed that this shadow was a dark side creature, recalling rumors of a dark lord that served the Emperor. This "shadow" was actually the Sixth Brother, who had been hunting Hedala, but was redeployed to Raada in response to Tano's activities. Tano complimented Hedala for staying out of the shadow's way and told her not to mention the shadow to her sisters. Tano decided to stay with the Fardis since she was safe with them.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> A week later, Tano requested a new job from the Fardi patriarch. Fardi sent her to ferry supplies to the other branches of the Fardi family in the other cities on Thabeska. During her flights, Tano came to suspect that the Fardis were using her to smuggle goods. Fardi later assigned her offworld transport missions. While on a routine flight, she rescued a group of humans from an escape pod. Their shuttle had been attacked by pirates, who had taken several hostages. The humans were part of a company that had been targeted by a rival firm competing for a large project. Tano suspected that the rival firm had colluded with the pirates to kidnap hostages in an attempt to bankrupt the company. Tano agreed to help the humans and rescued their companions from the pirates.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> ====Entanglements==== Later, Tano returned to the Fardi household and discovered that stormtroopers were conducting a routine search of the house. To avoid drawing Imperial attention, Tano claimed that she had repaired the Fardis' ship and taken it for a spin around the system. The Fardi patriarch vouched for "Ashla" and claimed that she was his mechanic. Tano also spoke with Hedala and learned that she had sensed no "shadows" that day. When the stormtroopers and their commanding officer asked about the metal pieces they had found in her room, Tano claimed that they were just "bits of junk" that she had picked up from doing various jobs. The Imperials accepted her story but "advised" Fardi to be careful about associating with criminal elements.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> After the stormtroopers had left, Fardi apologized for getting Tano entangled in his family's activities. Fardi confided that he was aware that she had been using the ships to run her own mercy missions. While appreciating her services as a mechanic and pilot, Fardi advised Tano to leave to avoid further entanglements with the Empire. Without telling Fardi that his youngest daughter Hedala was Force sensitive, Tano told him that she was special and to be careful with her. Thinking that Hedala had potential to be a mechanic, Fardi promised to protect his youngest daughter. Before leaving, Tano hugged Hedala and told her to avoid the "shadows." The Fardis allowed her to leave in her ship.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Tano took the Fardi ship to small, sparsely populated world in the Thabeska system. However, she was followed by a starship flown by a female [[Black Sun]] agent, who had come to extort [[credit]]s from her for the damage her smuggling activities with the Fardis had inflicted on their operations. In order to pay off these "debts," the Black Sun agent offered her a job, but threatened to kill her if she did not accept her offer. Tano rejected the Black Sun agent's offer and fled back to her ship under fire. The Black Sun agent gave chase in her ship. During the dogfight, Tano decided to cast her aside her pseudonym as "Ashla" for good and to embrace her identity as Ahsoka Tano.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> The Black Sun ship managed to damage her freighter's starboard engine. Before Tano's ship could sustain further damage, a larger ship appeared in the atmosphere and chased the Black Sun ship away. Tano managed to take her freighter into space, but burned out her port engine. Before she could engage the hyperdrive, she was caught in the [[tractor beam]] of the second ship that she had encountered. This ship belonged to Tage and Tamsin, who had been sent by Senator Organa to find Tano. Believing the second ship to be hostile as well, Tano armed herself with batons. When Tage and Tamsin entered the ship through the hatch, she knocked them out cold.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> While navigating her way to the bridge to disable the tractor beam, Tano encountered her old friend R2-D2 in the engine room. R2-D2 told her that he now worked for a senator and that Tage and Tamsin had been sent on a mission to take her to meet someone. The droid also confirmed that the senator was the Jedi sympathizer Bail Organa and that he had indeed sent the pilots to pick her up. Tano convinced R2-D2 to release the tractor beam on her ship and to tell everyone that he never saw her. However, she instructed him to make sure that she could track his ship. After repairing her ship, Tano left Tage's ship and hid on one of the small moons that orbited the planet where she had encountered the Black Sun agent. After R2-D2 had transmitted the coordinates of Tage's ship, she slept aboard her freighter.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> ====A new ally==== After Senator Organa arrived in his [[CR90 corvette]] ''[[Tantive IV]]'', Tano donned a pressure suit and boarded the Senator's ship through a hatch that R2-D2 had left open. Tano surprised Senator Organa in his temporary office. After exchanging pleasantries about R2-D2, Tano explained that she did not come with Tage because she distrusted anyone who employed a tractor beam before saying a hello. Organa admitted not telling his pilots who she was in order to protect her true identity. Addressing her as "Padawan Tano," Organa then told Tano that he was recruiting people for a rebellion against the Emperor, the Empire and everything it stood for.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Tano responded that she was no longer a Padawan and recounted the previous events on Raada to Organa. Senator Organa told her that she could not fight the Empire alone and offered her a place in the emerging rebellion. However, Tano stated that she could not become a commander again due to her experiences during the Clone Wars. Organa replied that he could find another job for her. Tano then told Organa that "something" was hunting down Force-sensitive children throughout the galaxy. She agreed to join the rebellion if Organa agreed to help her protect the children. Senator Organa accepted her bargain and told Tano that he needed her help for a mission on Raada.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Tano agreed to the mission, but requested a meal since she was exhausted from her earlier adventures. Bail informed her that his contacts in Raada's sector had reported the presence of a new Imperial agent who had gray skin and was armed with a [[Sixth Brother's lightsaber|lightsaber]]. This agent turned out to be the Inquisitor Sixth Brother, who had been stalking Hedala and was now charged with rooting out Tano. The Sixth Brother had earlier launched an attack on the Raadian insurgents who had retreated to the caves. He had recaptured Kaeden but killed the other farmers including Kolvin and Neera. Only Kaeden's younger sister Miara survived the massacre.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Tano opined that the new Imperial agent was a Force wielder who had been sent by the Empire to hunt down Jedi. She traced the Inquisitor's arrival to Imperial interest in her "acts of kindness" in the local sector. Senator Organa cautioned Tano that the Empire could be setting a trap for her. While studying footage of the Imperial agent on Organa's [[datapad]], Tano discovered that her friend Kaeden had been captured and was bound to chair. Tano panicked, but Organa firmly told her to calm down. He stressed that she needed to rest and plan. Organa also assured her that the Empire would not hurt Kaeden because they wanted to lure her out of hiding. In the ''Tantive IV''{{'s}} hangar bay, Tano reflected on her mission with R2-D2.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> When Captain Antilles entered the office to investigate Tano's intrusion, Organa reassured him that she was a friend. Tano then rested in a room that Senator Organa had provided for her. While sleeping, Tano experienced a flashback of her acquiring her [[Kyber crystal]] as a youngling on the crystal world of [[Ilum]]. After resting, Tano assembled two lightsaber hilts from the scrap metal pieces she had acquired on Raada. Tano then met with Senator Organa and told him about her plan for the Raadian mission.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> ====Evacuation of Raada==== [[File:Ahsoka-rain-art.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Tano crafted a pair of white lightsabers using crystals from an Inquisitor's dual blade.]] Prior to the [[Uprising on Raada|mission]] on Raada, Tano declined Organa's offer to provide back up since she preferred to work alone. When Organa recalled that many of the Jedi he had encountered preferred to work alone, Tano reiterated that she was not a Jedi. Organa then asked what Tano was, stating that she still sounded and acted like a Jedi. Tano replied that she would let him know once she figured out who she was. After finishing the modifications to her ship, Tano rested before departing on her mission. On the way to Raada, Tano traveled past the planet Ilum. She discovered that the Empire had been mining the planet extensively. Tano considered going back to Rex's fake grave to retrieve her lightsabers, but decided against it.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> After arriving on Raada, Tano parked her ship on the opposite side of the moon from the main settlement. After loading her weapons into a small carry bag, Tano walked for two hours to the Raada settlement. On the way, she found Miara sitting by a small fire. Tano learned that Miara was the lone survivor of the farmers who had fled into the caves and that the mysterious Inquisitor had taken Kaeden prisoner. Tano convinced Miara to dowse the fire and keep watch while she meditated in the Force. While meditating, Tano decided that while she was no longer a Jedi, she would still use her Jedi training to help the people to fight back against the Empire. As they approached the settlement, Tano discovered that the Imperial crops had drained the life out of the planet's soil. She told Miara to remind her to burn the dying fields if they got a chance. Miara also informed Tano that the Empire was not forcing the farmers to work for the entire daytime. While Tano headed to the Imperial compound, she instructed Miara to find Selda or Vartan and give them the holo she had recorded in hyperspace.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> While approaching the Imperial compound, Tano encountered the Sixth Brother, who taunted her about her friendship with Kaeden, mocking Tano for violating the Jedi Code by forming attachments. The Inquisitor attacked her with his [[double-bladed spinning lightsaber]], but Tano dodged him using the Force. The Sixth Brother tried to disconnect his weapon and fight her with two blades. Despite lacking her lightsabers, Tano used the Force to invigorate her hand as she touched the hilt of his lightsaber. The lightsaber hilt shattered and the Inquisitor was killed by the ensuing explosion. Tano felt pity for her fallen foe and closed his helmet as a mark of compassion. She then retrieved the kyber crystals from his lightsaber and used the Force to heal them of the dark side presence, causing them to turn white.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Armed with her [[Ahsoka Tano's white lightsabers|new pair of white lightsabers]], Tano Force-jumped into the Imperial compound and fought her way through to the stormtrooper sentries to Kaeden's cell. Tano also managed to free the other prisoners in the process. After reuniting, Tano and Kaeden headed to Selda's cantina. When Kaeden asked about Tano's plan, Selda reassured them that Miara had transmitted Tano's message and that Vartan was evacuating the farmers. Tano told the farmers that she had contacted an "old friend." In response, Kaeden said that she understood that Tano had lied to keep them safe while the Inquisitor had lied because he enjoyed suffering. After treating Kaeden's injuries, Tano exited the cantina to find several of Organa's [[RZ-1 A-wing interceptor|A-wings]] bombing the Imperial compound.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Shortly thereafter, Organa landed several transports and cargo ships, which proceeded to evacuate the farmers. Tano led Kaeden, Selda, and Miara to the ''Tantive IV''. When Captain Antilles told her they had to evacuate soon, Tano responded that Organa's A-wings were taking care of the Imperial fighters. After seeing to the evacuation of the Larte sisters, Tano aided the evacuation of the remaining farmers, who numbered fewer than a hundred. Three Imperial tanks then appeared and began bombarding the ships and civilians. Using her Force powers, Tano jumped onto the leading tank and cut off its cannon with her lightsaber. She then opened the hatched and hauled the pilot out. Tano then destroyed the tank's controls and overloaded the cannon.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> The resulting explosion toppled the nearby tank, disabling its hover mechanism. Tano sliced off its gun and let it crash into a house. Tano then headed to the third tank, but was unable to stop it from blasting Vartan and a group of refugees. Enraged, Tano used the Force to cause the tank's turret to implode. Tano then tended to the wounded Vartan and carried him to the ''Tantive IV''. After evacuating the last of the refugees, Tano and her rebel allies departed in their ships. Once aboard, Tano comforted the wounded Kaeden. When Kaeden moaned that she should not have listened to her feelings, Tano reassured her that Jedi made that mistake. Tano expressed confidence that she would be able to handle the galaxy now and promised to meet Kaeden again.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> ====Joining the Rebellion==== [[FIle:Fulcrum is born DoR.png|thumb|right|220px|Ahsoka shows Bail a hologram of the Fulcrum symbol.]] Following the evacuation of Raada, Tano smuggled herself aboard the ''Tantive IV'' in order to arrange a meeting with Senator Bail Organa. She overheard a conversation between the Senator and his young adopted daughter [[Prince]]ss [[Leia Organa]]. After exchanging pleasantries, Organa confided that the Empire hoped to use his image as a family man to ensure his compliance. When Tano asked if he worried about his daughter, Organa replied that she took after her mother. When Tano asked what Organa was doing to fight against the Empire, he briefed her about Captain Antilles' glowing report of the Raada evacuation. There had been fifteen casualties including fourteen evacuees and one A-wing pilot. However, Antilles' medical staff had been able to save Vartan.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Tano also confided that the Inquisitor she encountered was not the last of his kind. While the Inquisitor had some training, she observed that he mostly relied on brute strength and lacked the skills of a Jedi. Organa promised to do what he could and then asked about Raada. Tano explained that the farmers could not go back because the Empire would wipe out the moon's surface. Organa agreed to resettle the Raadian refugees on Alderaan. However, Tano responded that the farmers wanted to join the rebellion. Organa agreed to resettle the farmers on an agricultural planet and to train pilots and soldiers.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> At Organa's request, Tano showed him her new lightsabers. She told Organa that she had acquired the kyber saber crystals from the Inquisitor. She explained that the crystals had previously been red because they had been corrupted by the dark side when those who wielded them had bent them to their will, causing the crystals to "[[Bleeding|bleed]]." Tano speculated that the kyber crystals had been looted from the former Jedi Temple. Tano also remarked that her former friend Barriss Offee, for all her treachery and atrocities, had been right that the Jedi and the Republic had taken the wrong approach to the Clone Wars. Organa commented that the former Chancellor Palpatine had been a skilled manipulator.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Tano added that she had tried to escape the war, but kept being drawn back into it. Organa responded that their job was to focus on the present which he likened to a middle road. Tano agreed with Organa's sentiments and opined that she wanted to pursue a path separate from a general or a Padawan. At that point, the ''Tantive IV'' exited hyperspace above Alderaan. Tano also commented that the lack of communications had caused deaths on Raada and her hostile response to Tage and Tamsin. After some discussion, Tano convinced Organa to let her run his [[Rebel Alliance Intelligence Service|intelligence networks]]. She also convinced Organa to provide her with a new ship. At Organa's suggestion, Tano adopted the code name [[Fulcrum (title)|Fulcrum]] for her work as a rebel spy. Unknown to Tano, her activities had also attracted the attention of [[the Grand Inquisitor]], who informed Darth Vader that he had discovered evidence of another Jedi Purge survivor.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> ====Undercover messenger==== {{Quote|Fulcrum.''"<br />"''Ahsoka. My name is Ahsoka Tano.|Ahsoka Tano introduces herself to the [[Spectres]]|Fire Across the Galaxy}} [[File:Hera Fulcrum Hologram.png|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka, as "Fulcrum," speaking to rebel member Hera via hologram, urging her to bring her cell into hiding]] By [[4 BBY]], Tano was a key member of Senator Organa and Senator [[Mon Mothma]]'s rebel network. Under the code name "Fulcrum," Tano facilitated the flow of intelligence and communications between the rebel cells across the galaxy. One of these cells was the [[Spectres|crew]] of the ''[[Ghost]]'', which operated on and around the Outer Rim world of [[Lothal]]. She spoke only with [[Hera Syndulla]], the owner and pilot of the ''Ghost'', and identified herself only by her codename. As Fulcrum, Tano provided the ''Ghost'' rebels with intelligence for missions in order to hit Imperial forces or interests, and those missions were part of a larger plan that the rebels were part of—one that, amongst the rebels, only Syndulla knew. Tano's intelligence was generally accurate, but sometimes only partially so. One mission that Syndulla, along with [[Ezra Bridger]] and [[Sabine Wren]], went on was an attack on an Imperial convoy. The intelligence that Fulcrum provided was correct about the route and timing of the convoy, but underestimated the Imperial defenses. As a result, the ''[[Phantom]]''—the shuttle used by the rebels—sustained minor damage while outrunning a squadron of [[TIE/ln space superiority starfighter|TIE fighters]].<ref name="Out of Darkness">{{Rebels|Out of Darkness}}</ref> Shortly thereafter, Syndulla—along with Wren, who insisted on knowing more about Fulcrum and the missions the rebels were being sent on—traveled to [[Fort Anaxes]], an [[asteroid]] base used by the [[Grand Army of the Republic]] during the [[Clone Wars]], in order to pick up supplies from Tano. Tano contacted Syndulla while she en route and informed Syndulla that the supplies were unloaded and ready for pickup. Wren, eager to know more about the individual giving them their intelligence, suggested that "Fulcrum" wait for them at the rendezvous, prompting Tano to wonder if something was wrong. Syndulla convinced Tano, however, that Wren was just there to help with the mission. Nonetheless, Wren felt untrusted and wanted to know why the rebel missions were becoming so dangerous, but Syndulla assured her that the less she knew, the safer she would be if captured by the Empire. Once they arrived on Fort Anaxes, Tano was already gone.<ref name="Out of Darkness" /> Sometime later, the rebels rescued [[Tseebo]], a Rodian in the [[Imperial Information Office]] whose [[AJ^6 cyborg construct]] headpiece contained vital Imperial information, including a five-year plan for the entire Outer Rim.<ref name="Empire Day">{{Rebels|Empire Day (episode)|Empire Day}}</ref> After fleeing Lothal, the ''Ghost'' rendezvoused with [[Ahsoka Tano's corvette|Tano's vessel]].

After reminding her that Jarrus understood the risks he took, and that Bridger—the crew's remaining Jedi—was too important to be risked, Tano informed her that their message had reached beyond Lothal and had attracted attention from the top ranks of the Empire. Tano urged Syndulla to take her crew into hiding to avoid further jeopardizing their mission. The crew ignored Tano's warning and set out on a [[Action at Mustafar|mission]] to rescue their captive leader.<ref name="Rebel Resolve">{{Rebels|Rebel Resolve}}</ref> The rebels soon learned that Jarrus was being held on the ''[[Sovereign]]'', the personal Star Destroyer of [[Grand Moff]] Tarkin, in orbit of Mustafar. The crew set out to rescue him and succeeded, but were overwhelmed by Imperial forces. The crew's astromech droid, [[C1-10P]], contacted Fulcrum and requested reinforcements. Tano—leading [[Phoenix Cell]], a fleet of rebel ships—arrived at Mustafar and helped the crew of the ''Ghost'' escape. When the rebels were safe and away from Mustafar, Tano revealed her identity and told them that they were part of a wider rebel movement.<ref name="Fire Across the Galaxy">{{Rebels|Fire Across the Galaxy}}</ref> Tano wrote a report to General [[Davits Draven]] about the operation, summarizing the battle and in a post-action report, detailed on how the Spectres had been integrated into Phoenix Squadron, and Syndulla had received an [[Alliance officer]]'s commission.<ref name="Rebel Files">''[[Star Wars: The Rebel Files]]''</ref> ====The Siege of Lothal==== After the crew of the ''Ghost'' joined the Phoenix Squadron, Ahsoka Tano acted as a mentor and adviser to the newer rebels. She had a particular affinity with Kanan and his apprentice Ezra Bridger, fellow Jedi who were resisting the Empire. During the Imperial [[Siege of Lothal]], Tano along with Syndulla, Jarrus and the Phoenix [[Commander]] [[Jun Sato]] sanctioned a mission to rescue the Imperial [[Minister]] [[Maketh Tua]], who wanted to defect from the Empire. The crew of the ''Ghost'' returned to Lothal but stumbled into a trap set by Darth Vader, Tano's former mentor and friend.<ref name="Siege of Lothal" /> [[File:Maketh Tua contacts the rebels.png|thumb|left|250px|Maketh Tua, a defector of the Empire, asks the Rebellion for their help.]] With much difficulty, the crew of the ''Ghost'' escaped Lothal in a [[shuttle]]. However, Vader had planted a [[Homing beacon|tracking device]] on that shuttle which allowed him to track down the Phoenix rebel fleet. When Vader [[Attack on Phoenix Squadron (4 BBY)|attacked]] the rebel fleet with his [[TIE Advanced x1|TIE Advance starfighter]], Tano joined the crew of the ''Ghost'' aboard their ship. During the battle, Tano and Jarrus used the Force to probe the mysterious TIE pilot only to learn that he was none other than Anakin Skywalker. Vader also sensed her presence and Tano collapsed unconscious in shock.<ref name="Siege of Lothal" /> After escaping Vader, Tano questioned Jarrus and Bridger about their earlier confrontation with Darth Vader on Lothal. Jarrus recalled that he had not sensed a presence as evil as Vader since the Clone Wars. When Bridger asked Tano about the identity of the Sith Lord, Tano feigned ignorance of his identity. However, she told them that she knew that Vader would be coming for the rebels again in an effort to destroy them. Whether they chose to fight Vader and the others who would try to destroy them, the ''Ghost'' crew told her that they would fight them together. She also told them that she had to depart "to answer questions that need answering."<ref name="Siege of Lothal" /> ====Reuniting with Rex==== {{Quote|Commander. You got old."<br>"Had to happen sometime, Rex.|Ahsoka Tano reunites with Rex|Relics of the Old Republic}} [[File:Ahsoka embraces Rex.jpeg|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka embraces Rex after years of being apart.]] Following the destruction of the Phoenix flagship ''[[Phoenix Home]]'', the Phoenix rebels were on the run. When the rebels discussed their next move, Tano suggested that the crew of the ''Ghost'' seek out an old friend: the former [[Clone Captain]] [[Rex]]. For their mission, she gave Wren and the crew of the ''Ghost'' the head of an old [[T-series tactical droid|tactical droid]] and sent them to the desert planet of [[Seelos]]. Prior to departing, she told Jarrus to trust her friend.<ref name="Lost Commanders">{{Rebels|The Lost Commanders}}</ref> After some difficulty, the crew of the ''Ghost'' managed to win over Rex, who supplied them with a [[datacard]] containing a list of Republic installations in the Outer Rim and Mandalore. After fighting off an Imperial assault, Rex agreed to join the Rebellion. After returning from Seelos, Tano reunited with her old friend, who commented that she had grown "old." Tano responded by saying that it "had to happen sometime."<ref name="Relics of the Old Republic">{{Rebels|Relics of the Old Republic}}</ref> ====Learning about the Inquisitorius==== With Rex's datacard, the Phoenix rebels gained access to a list of abandoned Republic bases and installations. During a salvaging mission to an abandoned Republic medical station, the crew of the ''Ghost'' encountered two more Inquisitors—the [[Seventh Sister]] and the [[Fifth Brother]]. These Inquisitors were aware about the existence of Tano and attempted to force Bridger and Wren to divulge all information they knew about her. However, these rebels escaped with the help of [[Garazeb Orrelios]].<ref name="Always Two There Are">{{Rebels|Always Two There Are}}</ref> ====Rescuing Infants==== {{Quote|I know why you want the children!"<br>"Well, who doesn't want to be a mother?|Ahsoka Tano speaks with the Seventh Sister whilst dueling both her and the Fifth Brother|The Future of the Force}} While monitoring transmissions from Mustafar, Tano discovered that the Empire's Inquisitors had a secondary mission which involved kidnapping Force-sensitive children. Traveling to the planet [[Garel]], she related her discovery to Kanan Jarrus. Tano had also decoded two sets of coordinates. While she'd investigate the first set of coordinates, she sent Jarrus to investigate the second set. Jarrus accepted the mission and was accompanied by Bridger, Zeb, and the astromech droid Chopper. The first set of coordinates led Tano to the planet [[Chandel]], where she encountered a derelict passenger ship. She quickly encountered an elderly woman named [[Darja]], who revealed that the Seventh Sister and Fifth Brother had abducted her grandchild, [[Alora (child)|Alora]]. Tano comforted the grandmother and promised to find her grandchild.<ref name="The Future of the Force">{{Rebels|The Future of the Force}}</ref> [[File:Ahsoka vs the Seventh Sister.png|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka deactivates the Seventh Sister's lightsaber during their duel.]] Meanwhile, Jarrus and his fellow rebels traced the second set of coordinates to a flat in [[Hammertown]], a settlement on the planet [[Takobo]]. After rescuing Alora and an [[Ithorian]] infant named [[Pypey]], the rebels ran into trouble with the Seventh Sister and Fifth Brother. Following a protracted pursuit and confrontation, the rebels were bested by the Inquisitors outside the [[spaceport]] where they had berthed their ship, the ''Phantom''. However, before long, Tano arrived and engaged the two Inquisitors in a lightsaber duel. Through her mastery of the Force and lightsaber skills, Tano easily defeated the two Inquisitors. Before she could capture them, however, she was surrounded by Imperial reinforcements. Tano managed to escape Takobo with Jarrus and his rebels, who fled aboard the ''Phantom''. As the Rebels departed from Takobo, Tano recalled that a similar attempt had been made by a Sith Lord to abduct children during the Clone Wars. In the past, the Jedi had protected them, but since they were now eradicated, the Rebellion was now their only protection.<ref name="The Future of the Force" /> ====Anakin's fate==== {{Quote|Ahsoka, why did you leave? Where were you when I needed you?"<br>"I made a choice. I couldn't stay."<br>"You were selfish."<br>"No!"<br>"You abandoned me! You failed me! Do you know what I've become?"<br>"No. No!|Ahsoka Tano, communicating with a vision of Anakin Skywalker through the Force|Shroud of Darkness}} After Jarrus and Bridger a were [[Duel on Oosalon|attacked]] by the Inquisitors on [[Oosalon]], they realized their presence was endangering the rebellion's search for a base and met with Tano on the ''Ghost'' to discuss a plan of action. While waiting for them, she viewed a holocron of Skywalker giving a demonstration in lightsaber combat, which Ezra also watched when he arrived. Remarking on his skills, he asked her what happened to Skywalker. Hesitant, she claimed to have seen him once more when he was sent to rescue Chancellor Palpatine, but did not know what happened to him as the Jedi Purge unfolded. When Jarrus arrived expressing his concerns, she mentioned in difficult times she would have had asked Kenobi or Yoda for advice. Jarrus revealed that they had communed with Yoda in the [[Lothal Jedi Temple]], and decided to return there in the ''Phantom''.<ref name="ShroudofDarkness" /> [[File:Vision of Darth Vader.png|thumb|right|250px|Through a vision, Ahsoka accepts that her former master fell to the dark side.]] Tano declined to raise the entrance to the temple, pointing out she was no longer a Jedi. Jarrus and Bridger raised the temple from the ground, discovering a new door below the one they had entered before. Inside, Tano, Bridger and Jarrus had their own separate visions. Tano was confronted by a vision of Skywalker, who expressed anger at her departure, calling her selfish and accusing her of abandoning him. He asked Tano if she knew what he had become. Lashing out with her lightsaber, she howled in agony as she finally accepted the fact that her master had become Darth Vader.<ref name="ShroudofDarkness" /> The Inquisitors arrived, but the visions in the temple took the shape of a [[Jedi Temple Guard]] and distracted them, buying Tano and the Jedi time to escape. As she fled, Tano turned and saw Yoda on [[Dagobah]], who waved at her. Smiling back, she turned and continued on her way back to the ''Phantom''. On board, Bridger revealed he had spoken to Yoda and that he had been told to find [[Malachor]]. Tano explained that Malachor was not a person, as Ezra assumed, but a planet.<ref name="ShroudofDarkness" /> ====Twilight of the apprentice==== =====Atollon===== {{Quote|You are set on this confrontation then?''"<br />"''I have to know the truth.''"<br />"''So be it, but understand this, much will change as a result of this encounter, including you.''"<br />"''Isn't that true of all things, as time advances?''"<br />"''My dear, when I say change, I mean death.''"<br />"''So I will die?''"<br />"''Will you?

Goodbye then, Ahsoka Tano, former Jedi Knight.|Bendu and Ahsoka Tano, prior to Tano's confrontation with her former master|url=https://twitter.com/dave_filoni/status/883124880157192192}} [[File:Ahsoka finds Ezra.jpeg|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka speaks with Ezra about the Force before heading off on their mission to Malachor.]] After the rebellion set up a new [[Chopper Base|base]] on planet [[Atollon]], Tano traveled there to meet with Jarrus and Bridger, to join them on their quest to Malachor. Before leaving Atollon, Bridger told Tano about his predicament with the [[krykna]] and she explained that the Force became more mysterious as one learned more about it. Bridger then followed Tano back to the camp where they prepared to take off to Malachor.<ref name="The Mystery of Chopper Base">{{Rebels|The Mystery of Chopper Base}}</ref> Before they left, Tano met [[Bendu]], an ancient Force-sensitive being living on the planet. During their conversation, Bendu mentioned Tano's [[Mission to Malachor|upcoming confrontation]] with her former master. When Tano explained that she had to know the truth, Bendu retorted that everything would change as a result of their encounter, including her. As the Togruta failed to see his point, he specified that "change" meant death. Tano asked then if she would die, but Bendu acted as if she was affirming it, and so replied that he did not know that before telling her goodbye.<ref name="Dave Filoni Tweet">{{Twitter|dave_filoni|status/883124880157192192|[[Dave Filoni]]|image=File:AhsokaBenduMeeting.jpg}}</ref> =====Malachor===== [[File:Ahsoka Kanan and Ezra arrive on Malachor.png|thumb|right|250px|The trio land on Malachor.]] On their way to Malachor, Rex contacted Tano and offered to join the crew on their mission to Malachor, as he would be there in just two rotations, but Tano declined his offer. After her talk with Rex, Tano moved to the cockpit of the ''Phantom''. When Bridger asked Jarrus why Rex was so worried, Jarrus explained that before the Jedi Purge, the Jedi were told to never travel to Malachor, because of old legends about the planet. Tano remarked that legends always hold a bit of truth, after which Bridger wondered why Master Yoda would send the three to Malachor.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice">{{Rebels|Twilight of the Apprentice}}</ref> The group eventually made it out of hyperspace and Tano explained that they were seeking knowledge that would help them defeat the Sith. Before they landed on the planet, Chopper picked up a ship on the planet, but couldn't recognize what type it was. Jarrus told him to trace it as someone was clearly after the same thing the three were after as well.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> Once on the surface, they landed on a site with strange looking obelisks. As they moved closer to one of them, they noticed that it was covered in an ancient dialogue that Tano could partially translate. As Tano began reading the phrases out loud, Bridger became hypnotized by them and touched the pillar, causing the surface below them to collapse and the three to fall underground. As they were recovering, they noticed that the place had a hidden, underground Sith Temple, which might have been the reason Master Yoda had sent them there.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> [[File:Jedi vs Eight Brother.png|thumb|left|250px|The trio discover the Eighth Brother.]] On closer inspection, they realized the place was a battlefield with some figures turned into stone. Bridger also found an old [[crossguard lightsaber]]. While discussing the events of the battle, they were attacked by the [[Eighth Brother]] who launched projectiles at them, breaking another layer of rock beneath them and causing Bridger to fall further down. Tano and Jarrus decided to pursue the Inquisitor, as Bridger tried to look for a way back up. In his search for a way up, Bridger met a seemingly old and frail man trapped just as he was himself.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> Back on the surface, Chopper had discovered the Inquisitor's [[TIE Advanced v1|TIE Advanced]], while Tano and Jarrus pursued the Inquisitor. Jarrus had noticed that the Inquisitor was surprised to meet the Jedi here, which could mean that the Inquisitor was searching for something on Malachor, further backing up his theory that the Inquisitor was after something other than the Jedi. At the Inquisitor's TIE, Chopper managed to hijack the ship and use it against the Inquisitor, helping Tano and Jarrus capture him. The Inquisitor revealed that he was hunting "a shadow."<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> When Bridger and his companion, who had revealed himself to be named Maul, managed to claim a Sith Holocron which they had located beneath the temple, the whole structure went into "stand-by" mode with lights activating around it. This distracted Tano and Jarrus, which allowed the Inquisitor to secretly call for backup. They made their way to the temple, where they encountered the Seventh Sister and Fifth Brother. The two Inquisitors freed the Eighth Brother and a fight broke out between the Inquisitors and the two Jedi. Maul and Bridger soon found Tano and Jarrus, and Maul activated his double-bladed lightsaber, taking on the three Inquisitors single-handedly and forcing them to retreat.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> Tano asked Maul what "game he was playing," to which he responded, "the end game." Maul then said that the four had little time, as Vader himself was probably on his way to Malachor. The group slowly made their way to the top of the temple, but on their way, they met the Inquisitors again. Maul told Bridger to run to the top of the temple with the Sith Holocron, while Maul stayed back to help Tano and Jarrus against the Inquisitors. Maul was able to kill two of them with ease, while Jarrus indirectly finished off the last one. Not soon after, Maul revealed his true intentions to Tano and Jarrus, then lashed out at Jarrus, slashing him in the eyes and blinding him. Before Maul could deliver the killing blow, however, Tano intervened. The two fought briefly, but Tano realized time was running short and left Maul with Jarrus, who managed to throw Maul off the Temple.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> =====The fateful duel===== {{Quote|I won't leave you! Not this time."<br>"Then you will die.|Ahsoka Tano and Darth Vader|Twilight of the Apprentice}} Tano made her way to the top of the temple where she found Vader about to execute Bridger. She drew his attention away from Bridger by addressing him. Vader told her that she would be spared if she gave him the location of any remaining Jedi. Tano told him that the Jedi had all been killed by Vader and his Inquisitors. Vader, clearly disbelieving, obliquely threatened to torture any such information out of Bridger if Ahsoka would not cooperate. Tano replied in disgust that, though she had begun to suspect who Vader was behind his mask, his cruelty now lead her to believe that he could not possibly be her former master. Vader stated flatly that Anakin Skywalker had been weak, and that he had perished by Vader's own hand. Tano then snarled that she would avenge Skywalker's death. Vader reminded her that revenge was not the Jedi way, but Tano retorted that she was not a Jedi and attacked him.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> [[File:Duel on Malachor DoR.png|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka fights her former master, once Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, now Sith Lord Darth Vader, in a lightsaber duel.]] After several minutes of intense swordplay, Vader blasted Tano off of a ledge with the Force, and went to claim the temple's Sith holocron from Ezra. Tano, however, managed to survive her fall and rushed to re-engage Vader. She managed to catch up to him at the summit of the temple as he used the Force to pull Bridger, Jarrus, and the holocron to himself. Tano then ambushed Vader and managed to cut a furrow into his mask above his right eye.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> As Jarrus and Bridger escaped, Tano heard Vader call out to her. However, because of the damage that had been done to his mask, his voice was no longer that of Vader, but a combination of Vader's mechanical baritone and Skywalker's unfiltered voice. She turned around to face him, and saw through the gash in his mask the charred face of her former master, confirming beyond any doubt that Vader and Skywalker were one and the same. As Vader regained his feet, Tano proclaimed that she would not leave him as she had years ago. Vader paused for a moment upon hearing this, but then coldly responded that she would die and reactivated his weapon. The two engaged in combat once again and the temple locked down with a burst of energy, allowing Bridger and Jarrus to escape.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> Following the mission, Bridger blamed himself for the disaster, believing that Tano had been killed by Vader. Jarrus however, reassured him that the mission's outcome had not been his fault.<ref name="Steps">''[[Star Wars Rebels: Steps Into Shadow]]''</ref><ref name="THOF">{{Rebels|The Holocrons of Fate}}</ref> ====A world between worlds==== [[File:AlterFate-SoH.png|thumb|left|250px|Bridger's hand reaches out from the world between worlds and grabs Tano]] Unbeknownst to Jarrus and Bridger, however, the duel between Tano and Vader had had a very different outcome from the one in which they believed. As the holocron chamber locked down, Vader re-engaged Tano and quickly overwhelmed her. As the two engaged in a final bladelock, Vader began to push through her guard, but became distracted by the enormous energy discharges emanating from the damaged holocron dock. This allowed Tano to push Vader back a step with the Force and disengage. She then plunged her lightsabers into the floor near her feet, destabilizing the floor beneath herself and Vader. Vader glanced down at the floor, but disregarded it and prepared to strike down his former apprentice. However, as Vader struck what would have been a killing blow, a portal suddenly appeared from behind Tano and a figure grabbed her by the shoulder, pulling her [[World between worlds|into a mysterious dimension]]. Vader's strike missed, and he fell through the collapsing floor into a pool of light.<ref name="A World Between Worlds">{{Rebels|A World Between Worlds}}</ref> Once Tano came to, she realized the one who pulled her into the portal was in fact Ezra Bridger, although two years older. Tano was confused about what was happening and she wondered where Jarrus was. Bridger explained what had happened and where the two were located. Bridger concluded that if he could save Tano, he could also save his master. Tano warned him that if he were to do so, Bridger and the others would die. Depressed by the inevitable, he allowed the fire caused by the [[fuel pod]]s to consume Jarrus for good.<ref name="A World Between Worlds" /> After accepting the fate of Bridger's master, the two decided to head out of the dimension. However, the portal about Jarrus turned out to be a trick by Darth Sidious, who attempted to manipulate Bridger into letting the Emperor travel into the world. Tano and Bridger helped each other to evade the [[Fiery energy|Emperor's attacks]] and were separated in the process, but promised to meet each other once again in the future. As Bridger headed back to the portal from where he arrived, Tano made her way into another portal, which brought her back to Malachor, near the base of the Sith temple, accompanied by her convor friend. She wished the Force to be with Ezra Bridger and headed down into a dark tunnel.<ref name="A World Between Worlds" /> ====In search of Ezra Bridger==== [[File:SWR Ahsoka Gandalf.jpeg|thumb|right|226px|Ahsoka arrives on Lothal.]] Eventually, Tano was able to leave Malachor and sometime after the climactic [[Battle of Endor]], she traveled to Lothal on [[Ahsoka Tano's T-6 shuttle|a T-6 shuttle]] to meet with Wren, who sought to search for Bridger.<ref name="Family Reunion – and Farewell">{{Rebels|Family Reunion – and Farewell}}</ref> ===Legacy=== {{Dialogue|Anakin Skywalker|The Force surrounds you Rey.|Aayla Secura|Let it guide you|Ahsoka Tano|As it guided us|attr=Ahsoka, Anakin and Aayla speaking to Rey|src=Star Wars: Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker}} During the [[battle of Exegol]] in [[35 ABY]], Tano's voice was heard by [[Rey Skywalker|Rey]] among the voices of many Jedi of the past who aided her with destroying the resurrected Darth Sidious.<ref name="Episode IX">[[Star Wars: Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker|''Star Wars'': Episode IX ''The Rise of Skywalker'']]</ref> Tano was remembered in the time after the [[Galactic Civil War]], and was mentioned by a [[Second Whill (From a Certain Point of View)|member]] of the [[Whills (community)|Whills]] as someone to be remembered in [[Timeline of galactic history|galactic history]].<ref name="Whills">{{Shortstory|story=Whills|book=From a Certain Point of View}}</ref> ==Personality and traits== Ahsoka Tano was a [[Togruta]] [[Sexes|female]] who had [[Color|blue]] eyes, dark orange skin, brownish-grey lips, white facial markings, a very slender build, and white [[Lekku]] and [[montral]]s with blue stripes.<ref name="DB:Ahsoka" /> As a teenager, Tano was snarky, cocky, stubborn, reckless and impulsive, yet loyal, brave, generous and kind-hearted. She was very feisty and snippy, which earned her the nickname "Snips" from her master, Anakin Skywalker. Like her master, she was known to be very aggressive, eager for battle and willing to use terror or threats to get the answers she wanted.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> She had a tendency to follow her heart, which negatively impacted her path to Jedi knighthood. In her younger years, Tano's emotions inhibited her ability to make wise decisions, although she eventually gained the confidence to make the right choice, despite the great cost to her feelings.<ref name="Ultimate Star Wars" /> Over time, Tano became more mature and enlightened, her experiences during the Clone Wars shaping her. She had her victories, her failures, and her losses yet strove through them all, as she felt it was her duty as a Jedi to help restore peace and prosperity to the Republic. Her constant travels and experiences made her more worldly than most people her age, and often she was surprised by the various events and people she came across during the Clone Wars.<ref name="The Wrong Jedi" /> However, when Tano was framed for murder and treason, she was horrified when the Jedi Order cast her out and all but condemned her to a Republic military tribunal, and came very close to being sentenced to death. When Skywalker unveiled the true culprit, Tano was shocked to see it was her friend Barriss Offee.<ref name="The Wrong Jedi" /> Though conflicted,<ref name="Ultimate Star Wars" /> she ultimately rejected the opportunity to become a Jedi again, having lost faith in the Order<ref name="DB:Ahsoka Gallery" /> for not standing by her.<ref name="TWJ Episode Gallery">{{Databank|the-wrong-jedi-episode-gallery|The Wrong Jedi Episode Gallery}}</ref> [[File:A_New_Beginning_AR.png|thumb|left|300px|Following her expulsion and trial, Tano lost faith in the Jedi Order.]] Tano was a confident and moralistic person, and a firm defender of the innocent. This carried on even after she left the Order, as she joined Bail Organa's rebellion to restore liberty and democracy to the people oppressed by the Empire. Tano also felt pity and compassion for the Inquisitor known as the Sixth Brother despite slaying him in combat. She regarded the Sixth Brother as a victim whose potential for good had been twisted and turned to the dark side. After befriending the Force-sensitive Hedala Fardi, Tano became concerned with protecting Force-sensitive children from being captured by the Empire's Inquisitors.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> During her time running from the Empire, Tano continued to suffer from grief over the loss of her friends and guilt over the fact that she wasn't there to help them. During her time on Raada, Tano was unsure about making new friends, largely due to the emotional pain inflicted by Offee's betrayal. Despite everything Offee had done, Tano believed that while she was wrong about "a lot of things", she did have a point about the Jedi and the Republic, and later expressed her belief that if had they truly listened to her, they might have been able to stop Darth Sidious before it was too late.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> As a rebel Informant code-named "Fulcrum", Tano worked indirectly with various rebel cells, always with her face hidden and her voice disguised, and became somewhat pragmatic as she advised Hera Syndulla to cease searching for Kanan Jarrus to protect her crew, especially Ezra Bridger. This may suggest she developed a more discreet nature and decided overall to put the many before the few.<ref name="Rebel Resolve" /> Even after revealing her true identity to the rebels, her dealing in secret as Fulcrum appeared to have remained, as Tano told Jarrus and Bridger that she had no knowledge about the Sith Lord they encountered, as she herself was having trouble coming to terms with the horrific realization of what had become of her former master.<ref name="Siege of Lothal" /> Those feelings recently made themselves apparent when she was refused to help open the Lothal Jedi Temple, stating she was no longer a Jedi for leaving the Order. While inside the temple, she was haunted by a phantom of her master, who angrily scolded Tano for leaving him to a fate worse than death. Tano, shedding tears and welling up with grief, lashed out at the illusion, and then wept when she saw no one there, but now realized her fears were true - that her former master was a ruthless Sith Lord.<ref name="ShroudofDarkness" /> Upon finally coming face-to-face with her former master once again, Tano refused to believe he and Vader were the same person, stating Skywalker "could never be as vile as Vader," to which Vader responding by claiming he had destroyed Skywalker. Tano then swore to avenge Skywalker's "death," something against her Jedi training and morals, but affirmed she was not a Jedi and proceeded to duel Vader, only to find that he was indeed her former friend and mentor. Feeling guilty over leaving him before, Tano offered Vader compassion, refusing to leave him behind again, only to be rebuffed and sentenced to death. Despite Vader's ruthlessness and power, Tano bravely continued the fight.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> When Tano was saved and reunited with Bridger in the world between worlds, she was saddened to learn of the fate of Jarrus, but disturbed by Bridger's idea of saving Jarrus from dying. Drawing from her own experience of being unable to save her master, Tano successfully convinced Bridger to let Jarrus go, and they parted ways, promising to find each other again as Tano went back to Malachor and resumed her journey.<ref name="A World Between Worlds" /> After the Battle of Endor, Tano sought to keep her promise to Bridger and joined Sabine Wren in her quest to find him and bring him home.<ref name="Family Reunion – and Farewell" /> ==Powers and abilities== ===Lightsaber training=== {{Quote|I admit, Ahsoka's a little rough around the edges, but with a great deal of training… and patience… she might amount to something.|Anakin Skywalker, on Tano|audio=AhsokaRoughEdges-TCWf.ogg|Star Wars: The Clone Wars (film)}} Even as a padawan, Ahsoka Tano was very skilled in [[lightsaber combat]].

She still sometimes used only her main lightsaber, such as when she dueled Skywalker on Mortis before Kenobi arrived, but would use Jar'Kai when facing multiple opponents and was able to hold her own against both Skywalker and Kenobi on Mortis, even though both of her opponents were more experienced warriors than she was.<ref name="Altar of Mortis" /><ref name="FB">{{FacebookCite|author=[[Dave Filoni]]|dateposted=March 23, 2011|timeposted=17:57|description=Q&A |quote=|link=notes/dave-filoni/qa/10150219391017571|archive=|dateaccessed=August 13, 2013|timeaccessed=|archivedate=}}</ref> During her second encounter with Grievous, Tano showed that her skills had improved vastly, as she was able to hold off all four of Grievous's lightsabers and survive for the second time, whereas previously she only lasted a short time when Grievous was only using two lightsabers.<ref name="A Necessary Bond">{{TCW|A Necessary Bond}}</ref><ref name="Duel of the Droids" /> Whilst fleeing from clones after being framed for murder, Tano lost her second lightsaber and was forced to use only her main lightsaber to fight Barriss Offee. Her duel against Offee showed that she had become too reliant on her second lightsaber, something she had in common with Asajj Ventress, and though she did put up a considerable fight, Offee ultimately proved too powerful for her.<ref name="To Catch a Jedi" /> Sixteen years after her departure from the Jedi Order, Tano's skill in lightsaber combat had greatly improved to the point of mastery. During a skirmish at Hammertown, she was able to defeat two Imperial Inquisitors at once and even managed to deactivate the double-bladed [[Seventh Sister's lightsaber|lightsaber]] of the Seventh Sister with her bare hands.<ref name="The Future of the Force" /> During the mission to Malachor, Tano was also able to duel evenly with former Sith Lord Maul before breaking off the fight to rescue Ezra. Afterwards she engaged Darth Vader himself and was able, during the first portion of their duel, to hold her own for several minutes before being pushed off of a ledge.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> However the second portion of their duel, occurring after Ahsoka damaged Vader's mask, lasted under a minute before she plunged her lightsabers into the unstable ground, leaving herself defenseless against what would have been a killing blow without intervention from Ezra Bridger.<ref name="A World Between Worlds" /> ===Force powers=== {{Quote|Because of Ahsoka's advanced abilities, I forgot how young she is.|Anakin Skywalker|Holocron Heist}} Tano was gifted with raw Force skill<ref name="Ultimate Star Wars" /> and often performed Force-enhanced jumps and other acrobatic feats. She possessed advanced [[Telekinesis|telekinetic]] abilities, as seen during the Battle of Christophsis, where she pulled down a large wall in order to save Skywalker from a group of retail droids. In another instance, Tano was able to deliver a [[Force push|strong push]] at Ventress and flung her back far away, saving the life of Luminara Unduli.<ref name="Cloak of Darkness" /> Tano also had a strong ability to sense things in the Force, able to feel the presence of Plo Koon after his fleet was destroyed by the ''Malevolence''<ref name="Rising Malevolence" /> and the presences of the children who were kidnapped by Cad Bane.<ref name="Children of the Force" /> She also eventually learned how to perform mind tricks.<ref name="The Academy" /><ref name="Sphere of Influence" /> In addition, Tano's Force powers enabled her to leap to incredible heights. She used this to her advantage when leaping into the ''Phantom'' in order to escape two Inquisitors.<ref name="The Future of the Force" /> Tano also experienced [[Force vision]]s and dreams. She was able to use the Force to heal two corrupted kyber crystals that had been "bled red" and restore them to their natural white color. These crystals became part of her new twin lightsabers. Tano was also able to use the Force to amplify her touch. On one occasion, she used this Force power to shatter the hilt of the Sixth Brother's double-bladed spinning lightsaber.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> ===Other abilities=== {{Quote|When I was out there, alone, all I had was your training and the lessons you taught me.

And not only that, I was able to lead others to survive as well.|Ahsoka Tano, to Anakin Skywalker|Wookiee Hunt}} In addition to her Force powers and lightsaber combat skills, Tano was also a talented pilot and also displayed potential as a skilled war strategist by leading an attack that penetrated a Separatist blockade on Ryloth.<ref name="Storm Over Ryloth" /> Due to her piloting skills, Tano found work as a courier for the [[Fardi clan]] while on the run from the Empire.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Tano also displayed skill in hand to hand combat as she was able to easily overpower Cad Bane before dropping her guard and being incapacitated by the bounty hunter.<ref name="Children of the Force" /> She later used her hand to hand combat skills on Mandalore by single handedly defeating a group of the Mandalorian Secret Service and later holding off several guards and subduing Prime Minister [[Almec]] despite being handcuffed at the time. However, on that occasion, she armed herself with one of the guards' shields, which she used to fend them off and defend herself from a stun gun.<ref name="The Academy" /> While she was a prisoner of Trandoshan hunters, Tano was able to kill the hunters Dar, and his father, Garnac, by only using hand to hand combat and her Force powers.<ref name="Padawan Lost">{{TCW|Padawan Lost}}</ref><ref name="Wookiee Hunt">{{TCW|Wookiee Hunt}}</ref> Tano also showed a considerable knowledge of mechanics which she had learned from her Master.

She also knew how to repair vehicles. While on Mortis, she repaired the shuttle that she, Kenobi and Skywalker had crashed on the planet.<ref name="Weapons Factory" /><ref name="Ghost of Mortis">{{TCW|Ghosts of Mortis}}</ref> Tano had the ability to understand [[Shyriiwook]], as demonstrated by her translations for [[Chewbacca]] while captured on [[Wasskah]].<ref name="Wookiee Hunt" /> Tano later put her skills as a mechanic to great use repairing starships and threshers while hiding on Thabeska and Raada. Tano was able to assemble her new twin lightsabers from scrap metal parts she had acquired from the Fardis.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> ==Behind the scenes== Ahsoka Tano was voiced by [[Ashley Eckstein]] in the [[Star Wars: The Clone Wars (TV series)|''Star Wars: The Clone Wars'' television series]] and [[Star Wars: The Clone Wars (film)|film]],<ref name="TCWFilm" /> as well as in the following ''[[Star Wars Rebels]]'' television series.<ref name="Fire Across the Galaxy" /> [[File:Ahsokawalkabout.png|thumb|left|200px|Ahsoka, as she appeared in unfinished episodes after she left the Jedi Order.]] Early in ''The Clone Wars''<nowiki>'</nowiki> development, Ahsoka was named Ashla, a reference to an early name for the [[light side of the Force]] when [[George Lucas]] was developing [[Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope|''Star Wars'']], and later canonized as the [[Lasat]] name of the Force.<ref>{{SW|url=tv-shows/star-wars-rebels/legends-of-the-lasat-trivia-gallery|text="Legends of the Lasat" Trivia Gallery}}</ref> Ashla is also the name of [[Ashla (Jedi)|one]] Togruta Jedi youngling who appeared in [[Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones|''Star Wars'': Episode II ''Attack of the Clones'']].<ref name="DB Bear">{{Databank|bear-clan|Bear Clan|archivedate=20170606073859}}</ref> The two characters, however, are otherwise unrelated.<ref name="Leland Ashla">[https://web.archive.org/web/20090116193158/http://forums.starwars.com/thread.jspa?threadID=152583&start=1755 Star Wars: Message Boards: Holocron continuity database questions], URL accessed January 27, 2009</ref> The name 'Ahsoka' was pitched by Lucas after [[Wikipedia:Ashoka|Ashoka the Great]], the Indian Emperor of the [[Wikipedia:Maurya Dynasty|Maurya Dinasty]].<ref name="Henry Gilroy">{{Twitter|HGilroy67|status/1019372713712893952|[[Henry Gilroy]]|quote=In honor of #CloneWars 10th, the title page for the series bible I wrote back in 05.
