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 [[First 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]], who nicknamed her "'''Snips'''" when she joined him 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 rebounded 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]]'s offer to rejoin the Order, instead of departing in search of a new path and becoming a [[Force-Sensitive Outcast]]. Tano briefly returned to lead Republic forces during the [[Siege of Mandalore]] and faced [[Maul]] and his forces, although [[Order 66]] was enacted shortly after the Sith Lord's capture and Tano, faking her death after being betrayed by the 501st Legion, was forced into hiding. After the Galactic Empire came to power, Tano went into hiding on [[Thabeska]] and [[Raada]] disguised as "'''Ashla'''." 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'''." 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 the [[Dark Lord of the Sith]] [[Darth]] Vader—who, unknown to her, was actually her former master, Anakin Skywalker—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 [[lightsaber duel|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 [[Search for Ezra|quest]] to find a missing Bridger, who had disappeared during the [[Liberation of Lothal]]. Decades after Tano began her search, her voice joined a multitude of Jedi [[Immortality|spirits]] to guide the young Jedi [[Rey Skywalker|Rey]] during the [[Battle of Exegol|final battle]] of the [[First Order–Resistance war]]. Ahsoka inspired Rey to stand up to a resurrected Darth Sidious and destroy him once and for all. ==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|thumb|left|250px|Plo Koon discovering a three-year-old Ahsoka Tano]] In [[36 BBY]],<ref name="Fact File 18" /> Ahsoka Tano was born on the [[planet]] [[Shili]].<ref name="Ultimate Star Wars" /> Three [[Standard year|years]] later,<ref name="DB:Ahsoka" /> Tano was discovered by [[Jedi Master]] [[Plo Koon]] among her people on 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 name="Kneobi-Bio">{{Databank|obi-wan-kenobi-biography-gallery|Obi-Wan Kenobi Biography Gallery|archivedate=20191117100838}}</ref> At some point, Tano traveled to the [[Water|ice]] planet [[Ilum]], where she acquired a [[Kyber crystal|crystal]], which brought her excitement as she then had the tool for which she could build her [[Ahsoka's lightsabers|lightsaber]].<ref name="Ahsoka" /> ===In the midst of galactic war=== ====Skywalker's Padawan==== {{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.<ref name="Yoda">{{Databank|yoda|Yoda|archivedate=20200422165907}}</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|thumb|right|250px|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, who was shocked to hear the news. Skywalker had spoken adamantly against the idea of taking on a Padawan learner. Despite Kenobi’s confusion, he accepted that having a Padawan would be good for Skywalker, who vehemently disagreed.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> Meanwhile, the droid army set up a deflector shield that would block the Republic artillery bombardment that earlier halted their advancements. Skywalker took Tano to check on [[Clone Captain]] [[Rex|CT-7567]] "Rex," who was also confused by Tano’s presence, referencing Skywalker’s earlier affirmation against taking on a Padawan learner. Tano stood up for herself, saying that Yoda believed she was capable and that she would prove it. As Skywalker went on ahead, Tano asked Rex if she outranked him, to which Rex responded that experience outranked any kind of designated command. However, Tano just responded that she was eager to get some.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> Skywalker and Tano 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, Tano tripped on a sensor antenna, accidentally activating a batch of [[LR-57 combat/retail 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 Tano 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, Tano 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" /> [[File:Christophsis_meeting.png|thumb|left|250px|Yoda, Skywalker, Tano, and Kenobi after the victory.]] Meanwhile, in the city, Kenobi tricked [[Confederacy of Independent Systems|Separatist]] [[General]] [[Whorm Loathsom]], stalling for time until the shield blew up. Then, Kenobi took the Separatist General hostage. When the battle was over, Skywalker noted how reckless his new Padawan was, saying that she might not have made it as Kenobi's Padawan. Tano felt disappointment until her master reaffirmed himself, thanking Tano for her help on their mission and noting that her recklessness might serve her well as his student. 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==== {{Quote|Ahsoka, a very wise Jedi once said, "Nothing happens by accident." It is the will of the Force that you are at my side. I just want to keep you there in one piece.|Skywalker, to Tano|audio=WillOfTheForce-TCWf.ogg|Star Wars: The Clone Wars (film)}} 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" /> As Skywalker communicated with the scouts who had been sent to Teth, Tano quickly became friendly with the clones, telling them about her rescue of Skywalker on Christophsis. Skywalker approached them and told them that it would be impossible to land at the [[B'omarr Monastery (Teth)|B'omarr Monastery]]. As Rex sent the men to their positions, Skywalker told Tano to remain humble, who replied that she was trying to keep the men inspired.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> [[File:AhsokaStinky-TCWf.png|thumb|220x220px|Ahsoka holds the young huttlet Rotta.]] Republic forces were forced to land below the monastery and climb the mountain with [[All Terrain Tactical Enforcer|AT-TE]] walkers and [[ascension cable]]s 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" /> After securing the outer perimeter, they discovered a [[caretaker droid]] 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 Huttlet. Meanwhile, 4-A7, who actually served the Separatists and [[dark acolyte]] [[Asajj Ventress]], 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, intending to gain Jabba’s favor for safe passage through the system.<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 [[lightsaber duel|duel]], they escaped on a [[Can-cell]] to a nearby [[hangar]], followed by Skywalker's [[astromech droid]], [[R2-D2]], to where a [[Twilight|ship]] was berthed. 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" /> [[File:Ahsoka vs Ventress Teth.png|left|thumb|287x287px|Ahsoka duels Ventress for the first time on Teth.]] 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 Porax-38 starfighter|''Rogue''-class Porax-38 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|right|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]]|audio=AhsokaBoldlySpoken-RM.ogg|Rising Malevolence}} During the [[Malevolence campaign|hunt]] for the Confederacy's new warship, the ''[[Malevolence]]'', which was a [[Subjugator-class heavy cruiser|''Subjugator''-class heavy cruiser]] armed with two [[mega-ion cannon]]s powerful enough to disable the power systems of an entire fleet of warships, 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 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 [[convoy]]s. 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]] [[Wullf Yularen|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 with the clones 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 ''Malevolence'' approaching them and hurried to disable power so they could blend into the debris field. At first, the ship passed, but it then detected the ''Twilight''{{'s}} [[medical droid]] [[TB-2]], who was working on the injured Wolffe, and fired the mega-ion cannon. Skywalker was able to outmaneuver debris and jump to hyperspace before the blast wave reached them.<ref name="Rising Malevolence" /> [[File:Plo Koon and Ahsoka Tano.png|thumb|left|250px|Plo Koon and Ahsoka Tano|left]] Following their return to the Republic fleet and 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]] as Shadow Squadron flew to intercept Grievous.<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 Amidala was captured by a tractor beam, Skywalker decided to rescue the senator. Tano remained on the bridge of the ''Resolute'' with Koon and Admiral Yularen and guided 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 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==== {{Quote|They sent a child to destroy my station?

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 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> [[File:Anakin Ahsoka and R3-S6 search for R2-D2.jpg|thumb|right|279x279px|Anakin and Ahsoka on the search for R2 with the spy droid R3-S6]] After Skywalker was injured when 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]], secretly a spy for General Grievous, on a subsequent salvage operation to try and recover the droid. Tano was optimistic R3 would be a suitable replacement but failed to convince Skywalker that R3 could ever replace R2. The pair boarded a nearby salvaging ship piloted by the [[Trandoshan]] scavenger [[Gha Nachkt]]. R3, secretly in league with the Separatists, activated several [[IG-88 assassin droid]]s, 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 sabotage, Tano and Rex were forced to rescue him, once again escaping the General's clutches. Tano continued to stick up for R3, but this only made Skywalker angrier since they were 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 [[Vulture's Claw|Gha Nachkt's ship]], Tano and Skywalker followed the transmission coordinates to Grievous's Separatist [[listening post]] on one of [[Ruusan]]'s moons. 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. However, as Tano and the clones advanced through the station, they were found by a force of droids and were pinned down. Unbeknownst to them, R3 was the one who contacted Grievous to help him locate the infiltration team. After they defeated the enemy, Grievous personally came to attack them. While Tano initially remained confident that they could defeat him like the other droids, Grievous quickly overpowered her before he killed all of the troopers save 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 with Denal while she distracted Grievous. Then, she was discovered and ambushed by Grievous thanks to the betrayal of R3. She escaped into the ventilation shaft and rendezvoused with the rest of the crew at the hangar and saw that R2 had been rescued. They escaped on board the ''Twilight'', this time with R2, just as the station exploded.<ref name="Duel of the Droids">{{TCW|Duel of the Droids}}</ref> ====Capture of Viceroy Gunray==== {{Quote|If it isn't the hairless harpy.''"<br/>"''If it isn't Skywalker's filthy, obnoxious little pet.''"<br/>"''How nice of you.

Several [[Senate Commando]]s under [[Captain]] [[Faro 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 on the Tranquility|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]] went to deal with the droids, where she was confronted by Ventress, who had slipped inside the ship undetected. Tano was once again confident enough to taunt Ventress as they dueled. The two dueled for a short time before Ventress managed to free Gunray and tricked Tano, trapping 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 deck, and escaped 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 and a Republic defector, [[Faro Argyus]], successfully completing her mission much to the dismay of Tano and Unduli.<ref name="Cloak of Darkness" /> ====Rescue on Vanqor==== {{Quote|We had the situation well under control, my little Padawan.''"<br/>"''Oh, I see.

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==== {{Quote|Okay, you and Bly go south.

The two Jedi, Rex, and their clone battalion managed to board Secura's ship 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. Tano and Skywalker led Secura and some survivors from her battalion, which were [[Clone Commander]] [[CC-5052|Bly]], [[Lucky]], [[Flash]], and [[Cameron]], to a cruiser. On their way, Skywalker was gravely injured saving the group from an explosion. They were 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 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 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 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 remained with the village as insurance. Wag Too and Tano later returned with Skywalker and Too healed his wounds using native healing oils.<ref name="Jedi Crash" /> When Separatist forces arrived under the command of [[Lok Durd]] in order to impose their "protection" of the Lurmen people, the Jedi were forced to leave the village to prevent the villagers from paying the price due to their presence. As the Jedi hid, they discovered a nearby heavily guarded Separatist base and Durd's [[superweapon]]: the [[Defoliator]], which was capable of destroying all organic life. When they realized that Durd meant to test this weapon on the Lurmen village, the Jedi revealed themselves to protect the villagers. At first, Watt Kaa adamantly opposed getting involved in any way, not even defending his people, but changed his mind after the Jedi 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==== {{Quote|Senator Amidala.

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 discovered that [[Doctor]] [[Nuvo Vindi]] had a [[Trade Federation laboratory|secret laboratory]] underneath the ground and that he was responsible for the creation of the virus that he called the [[Blue Shadow Virus]]. They then distracted Vindi's [[LEP servant droid|droids]], allowing Kenobi and Skywalker to infiltrate the facility quietly. The Jedi captured Vindi before he could detonate the [[viral bomb|bombs]] inside the facility and thus release the Blue Shadow Virus into Naboo's atmosphere. However, unbeknownst to anyone, [[LEP-86C8|one of Vindi's servant droids]] had stolen one of the bombs before it could be deactivated by Kenobi and the [[Clone ordnance specialist|clone 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 shortly before destroying himself, releasing the virus. Amidala triggered the alarm in time, shutting down the facility and preventing the virus from escaping to the outside. 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 Naboo's air. Eventually, thanks to Jar Jar Binks's clumsiness, Amidala also became infected by the virus, and her and Tano's conditions worsened 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, Tano, and the surviving clones.<ref name="Mystery of a Thousand Moons">{{TCW|Mystery of a Thousand Moons}}</ref> ====Battle of Ryloth==== {{Dialogue|Naval Officer|Perhaps a different strategy.

Tano lead clone pilots [[Axe (clone trooper)|Axe]], [[Slammer]], [[Kickback]], [[Tucker]], and [[Swoop]] into battle against the Separatist [[Ryloth blockade|blockade]] led by Captain [[Mar Tuuk]] over Ryloth. However, Tano's squadron had fallen right into a trap, and they were ambushed by four [[Munificent-class star frigate|''Munificent''-class star frigates]]. 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' [[V-19 Torrent starfighter|starfighters]] were 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 [[BTL Y-wing starfighter|Y-wing]] squadron while simultaneously protecting the ''Resolute'' by ordering Rex and Yularen into a [[Marg Sabl|tilt maneuver]], turning the cruiser's bridge away from the enemy fire so that only the belly of the ship was exposed. With the blockade destroyed, the Republic could begin its liberation of the Twi'lek people.<ref name="Storm Over Ryloth" /> Later, Tano and Skywalker assisted [[Mace Windu]] by providing air support, fighting off Separatist [[Hyena-class bomber|bombers]] that were tasked with destroying [[Lessu]] City. By driving out and defeating the Separatists and [[Wat Tambor]], the Republic 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==== {{Quote|I know I was wrong.

Unfortunately, they were vastly outnumbered, and the Republic sent an evacuation squad led by Plo Koon that was sent to retrieve them after the Separatists managed to establish a [[Felucia blockade|blockade]] above the planet, entrapping them on Felucia's surface. Despite instructions from both Kenobi and Skywalker to retreat, Tano continued to engage the battle droids, intent on continuing the offensive and refusing to back down. However, she eventually relented after her master ordered Tano and her troops to get inside his gunship. Moments later, the [[HAVw A6 Juggernaut|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" /> Tano was about to see more action than expected, as the 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. However, Bane completed his mission and stole a holocron. The Jedi were given a clue towards finding him when the captured Parasitti told them that Bane's next objective involved the 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]] to catch the bounty hunter.<ref name="Holocron Heist" /> ====Confronting Cad Bane==== {{Quote|I sense something, Master. And I don't like it.''"<br/>"''It's the dark side, Ahsoka. This is the right place.|Tano and Skywalker, on entering Sidious' facility|audio=TheDarkSide-CotF.ogg|Children of the Force}} 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. However, 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 Bane 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 bested 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 try to rescue her.<ref name="Cargo of Doom">{{TCW|Cargo of Doom}}</ref> [[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, 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" /> 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]]. Tano and Skywalker ambushed Bane in the infant's bedroom, with Tano confronting him with her lightsaber. After a failed escape attempt, Bane was finally brought into custody, and Page was returned to his mother. Before he was taken away, Tano reclaimed her stolen [[Padawan braid]]. Though they prevented the kidnapping, there still remained several other Force-sensitive children that Bane had succeeded in stealing away, so the two Jedi investigated Bane's starfighter for 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 and battled several surgery droids in order to recover the children, who were eventually 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> ====An unlikely alliance==== {{Dialogue|Paramita|Four on one is hardly a fair fight, even for a Jedi.|Tano|Wait a minute, four on one?

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 the group of bounty hunters [[Sugi]], [[Embo]], [[Rumi Paramita]], and [[Seripas]]. They realized that the bounty hunters were defending the village from a [[Ohnaka Gang|pirate gang]] led by [[Hondo Ohnaka]]. Together, the Jedi found a long term solution and trained the villagers to be able to look after themselves. When Ohnaka led his men to attack the village, the villagers had their training put to the test. When Seripas was almost crushed to death, Tano saved him and realized that Seripas was actually a small [[Ssori]] in an imposing suit of armor. Tano reassured Seripas that he did not need the armor to be strong and helped the villagers fight off Ohnaka's pirates, who left when Ohnaka declared the venture no longer profitable. In return for their help, Sugi gave the three Jedi a ride back to Republic lines in [[Halo|her ship]].<ref name="Bounty Hunters">{{TCW|Bounty Hunters (episode)|Bounty Hunters}}</ref> ====Second Battle of Geonosis==== {{Quote|Well, this tank could destroy the power generator…and probably us along with it.''"<br/>"''I guess that's our only choice.|Tano and Offee resign to sacrifice themselves|audio=AhsokaBarrissSacrifice-WF.ogg|Weapons Factory}} [[File:AhsokaAnakinVsDroidekas-LaPR.png|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka and Anakin stand back-to-back against a pair of droidekas 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]] and destroy the [[Geonosis primary droid foundry]], 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 duo survived and continued their attack, battling the Geonosian defense line. With Rex and a force of clones, they attacked a Geonosian fortress that stood in their way. Skywalker and Tano scaled the wall and destroyed the droids before blowing the wall so they could continue to the rendezvous point. 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> [[File:AhsokaAnakinArgue-WF.png|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka accuses Anakin of not trusting her judgment.]] 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 Jedi Master Luminara Unduli 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. The plan was to go through the underground Geonosian catacombs underneath the facility while Unduli and Skywalker led the 501st and the [[41st Elite Corps]] to engage in a frontal assault as a distraction. Though Tano was initially annoyed by Offee's "dependable" nature and Unduli's trust in her due to her own feelings of inadequacy, the two Padawans quickly bonded and were able to work well as a team. [[File:AhsokaAndBarriss-TCWS02E06.png|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka and Barriss trapped in rubble]] Though the two Padawans made it into the reactor room, they were ambushed by one of Poggle's [[super tank]]s, 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 but were buried under the rubble, surviving the explosion. Tano saved 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 Padawans had survived. Unduli informed Tano that her master never gave up on her, which reassured Tano that Skywalker trusted her and knew she was capable of handling herself.<ref name="Weapons Factory">{{TCW|Weapons Factory}}</ref> ====Incident aboard ''TB-73''==== {{Quote|Ugh.

The plan was to bring the 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 out of self-defense. 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 Jedi Master [[Kit Fisto]] of the situation while Offee went to disable the thrusters.<ref name="Brain Invaders">{{TCW|Brain Invaders}}</ref> [[File:Barriss infected.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka fighting an infected Barriss aboard ''TB-73''.]] 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]].

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]] pickpocket [[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, which was in great contrast to her own 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. Ultimately, however, Tano and Sinube managed to take back her lightsaber from Cryar, and the elder Jedi wanted her to pass on what she had learned from him to Jedi younglings.<ref name="Lightsaber Lost">{{TCW|Lightsaber Lost}}</ref> ====The hunt for Aurra Sing==== After Ahsoka Tano and Master Plo Koon rescued Skywalker and Mace Windu from the wreckage of the ''Venator''-class Star Destroyer ''[[Endurance]]'' on Vanqor,<ref name="R2 Come Home">{{TCW|R2 Come Home}}</ref> Tano and Koon journeyed into the Coruscant underworld.

Tano was able to find a lead but also disturbed some of the customers at a cantina, and the two Jedi departed after a tense standoff. Tano and Koon then traveled to [[Florrum]] and found Sing in a cantina. The situation quickly escalated when Fett sprung a diversion, and Sing escaped while Boba was captured. Tano skillfully pursued Sing on a speeder bike while Koon saved the hostages.

She had to surrender her lightsaber to help with the undercover mission. A group of students led by Kryze, with her lessons in mind, proceeded to fight a [[Mandalorian black market conspiracy|black market conspiracy]]. They brought their findings to Tano, who urged them to be more careful. Kryze told her that he only wanted to help his planet like his aunt the Duchess did, but Tano cautioned him from getting into a problem that he could not fix on his own. When the cadets are arrested by the [[Mandalorian secret service]] on their way to meet with [[Prime Minister]] [[Almec]], Tano stepped in to save them. She assisted the cadets and uncovered the scheme and learned that it was actually controlled by Almec himself. However, when they go to alert Duchess Satine, they find her missing with her bodyguards dead. Tano concocts a plan to rescue her, using a mind trick to pass the guards and freeing the Duchess, but Almec had been expecting her and stunned her as she tried to rescue the Duchess. When Almec attempted to force the Duchess to sign a confession of treason that would blame her for the black market operations, the cadets arrive and with Tano's help, take down Almec and his men. The conspirators were arrested and Tano left Mandalore shortly thereafter to return to the war.<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" /> [[File:AhsokaProtectsPadme-Assassin.png|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka protecting Senator Amidala from Aurra Sing.]] 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 discovered Sing but could not prevent her from wounding Amidala on the shoulder. Tano pursued her, but Sing escaped.<ref name="Assassin" /> Despite Tano and Organa's pleas for Amidala to return to Coruscant, she chose to stay and resume her speech. However, Tano devised a plan to allow Amidala to deliver her speech but remain in safety. Amidala used a [[BD-3000 luxury droid]] dressed in her clothes to cast her speech while she stayed in her room. However, Tano sensed that Sing was not deceived and realized she had discovered Amidala in her room. Tano rushed in and deflected the blast when Sing fired on Amidala. She then pulled Sing down out of the vent. Tano fought her until Sing knocked her out. However, Amidala was able to stun Sing. Tano and Amidala returned to Coruscant, where Tano reported to Skywalker and Master Yoda.

When the Republic became aware of the situation, Anakin Skywalker sent Tano in to investigate the matter outside of the operations of the Jedi. Tano accompanied her friend, Senator [[Riyo Chuchi]], aboard the Trade Federation blockade, disguised as her servant. Tano helped Chuchi sneak into the office of a Trade Federation [[Ambassador]] and overheard him talking with [[Administrator]] [[Sib Canay]] about how they were holding Che Amanwe onboard their ship. Chuchi's gasp almost gave them away, but Tano used the Force to prevent them from being discovered. Then, Tano gave them access to the detention complex after she performed a [[Mind trick]] and then destroyed a group of super battle droids. When they freed Che Amanwe, they were captured, but Senator Chuchi negotiated with the Trade Federation and, in tandem with her father's efforts hunting down [[Greedo]], the bounty hunter responsible for the kidnappings, convinced the Trade Federation to let them go and end their blockade.<ref name="Sphere of Influence">{{TCW|Sphere of Influence}}</ref> ====A lesson from Yoda==== {{Quote|What makes you unique makes you strong. This you must use. Yourself, you must always be.''"<br />"''I think I understand. I need to fight like myself.|Yoda and Ahsoka|audio=YouselfYouMustBe-TYIW.ogg|Teach You, I Will}} [[File:WaitASecondThisIsWhereSheLearnedThat.png|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka blocks Yoda's blade.]] Sometime later, Tano had gone back to the sacred world of Ilum to receive a second lightsaber crystal and to construct her [[Shoto lightsaber|second blade]].<ref name="Ahsoka" /> In the [[Jedi Temple dojo]], Skywalker and Tano were sparring, with the former teaching Tano to use her new lightsaber. However, being new to using two lightsabers at once, Tano was easily disarmed by Skywalker. Tano apologized to Skywalker for forgetting to use her second blade, but he waved it off, claiming that it took time to learn to use two lightsabers at once. As Tano retrieved her blade, Yoda entered the dojo, wanting to see Tano's progress in using her second lightsaber. Tano agreed to this after gaining Skywalker's approval and she walked out, igniting her first blade immediately. Skywalker cringed as Yoda looked at her in disappointment, telling her that she needed to bow before a duel in the dojo. She put her blade away and followed the Grand Master's command. She then reignited her blade, forgetting about her second one. With this, Yoda commanded her to use her second blade. Tano then ignited her second blade as Yoda ignited his. With one swing of his blade, Yoda managed to knock Tano back as she attempted to block. Yoda then attempted to teach Tano about how the two blades are like master and apprentice. With this, Tano stood up and attempted a stabbing motion on Yoda, but he simply ducked out of the way and tripped her. As Tano stood back up, Yoda taught her that she must always be herself, and Tano realized that she needed to fight like herself. She reignited her blades, and Yoda attacked once more, but she was able to block this time. Yoda told Tano that she had learned well.<ref name="Teach You">{{FOD|Teach You, I Will}}</ref> ====Training session and assignment==== {{Quote|Training sessions are about preparing us for the real world and the real battles we must face. Not just to win by whatever means.''"<br />"''I saw an opportunity and I took it.|Barriss Offee and Ahsoka Tano|Star Wars: Forces of Destiny—Ahsoka & Padmé}} In the Jedi Temple dojo, Tano and Padawan Barriss Offee had a [[Jedi training|training]] session and practiced [[lightsaber combat]]. As they spared, Offee used the Force to push Tano to the floor. Seeing an opportunity, Tano threw one of her lightsabers at Offee, catching the Mirialan off guard. Jumping up and igniting her remaining lightsaber, Tano brought Offee to yield, ending the match. Offee said that it was not a good match, stating that Tano would not have thrown her weapon in a real battle and that she had learned nothing from the session.<ref name="Ahsoka & Padme">''[[Star Wars: Forces of Destiny—Ahsoka & Padmé]]''</ref> [[File:BarrissAndAhsoka-FOD.jpg|thumb|right|275px|Barriss Offee and Ahsoka Tano talk after their training session.]] The two walked from the dojo and spoke about the differences between their masters' teachings. When Offee accused Tano of losing patience and forgetting the lightsaber forms, Tano replied by saying that the forms did not help her in real battles. Tano handed her lightsabers to Offee, who then demonstrated how using [[Form VI]] would have helped her. When they arrived at Tano's quarters, she thanked Offee for the match, and they parted ways.<ref name="Ahsoka & Padme" /> In her quarters, Tano tried the lightsaber forms but was unsuccessful. To clear her mind, she sat down and began to [[Meditation|meditate]]. As she meditated, she thought about how Offee had been right, and she determined that she needed to think like a Jedi and that she still was not good enough. Tano's meditation was interrupted when [[Senator]] Padmé Amidala knocked on the door, and Tano invited her inside.<ref name="Ahsoka & Padme" /> Tano was surprised to see Amidala at the temple and asked if everything was alright. Amidala explained that she was going to host an important meeting with the [[Arthurian delegates]] the next day, and the senator asked Tano if she would perform a security check. Tano doubted that Amidala needed her, saying that Captain Gregar Typho and the [[Naboo Royal Handmaidens|handmaidens]] would be enough. But thinking back to her training session with Offee, Tano ultimately agreed to the job.<ref name="Ahsoka & Padme" /> ====Working with Senator Amidala==== =====Defeating a changeling===== {{Quote|You know, it might not be such a bad idea if you stick around.''"<br/>"''Thank you, Senator Amidala, but it's not really my place to mingle with politicians.|Padmé Amidala and Ahsoka Tano|The Imposter Inside}} [[File:The Imposter Inside cover.jpg|left|thumb|left|250px|Amidala and Tano worked together to defeat Parasitti.]] The following evening, Tano established a perimeter around Amidala's [[Padmé's Apartment|apartment]] and assured the senator that the outside of the building was clear. Amidala thanked the Padawan and requested that she stay for the meeting, well aware that her negotiations with the delegates from [[Arthuria]] were opposed by many. Tano politely declined, however, not wanting to interfere in the dealings of [[Politics|politicians]].<ref name="The Imposter Inside">{{FOD|The Imposter Inside}}</ref> Before she could leave, Tano noticed that the banquet table that one of the Senator's handmaidens had prepared was set with utensils, which were customarily never used by [[Arthurian]]s. When Amidala questioned the handmaiden for the potentially offensive act, the servant pulled out a blaster and fired upon the duo. As Tano confronted the handmaiden, she revealed herself to be Cato Parasitti,<ref name="The Imposter Inside" /> the shape-shifting assassin that Tano had encountered during Cad Bane's heist at the Jedi Temple.<ref name="Holocron Heist" /> After a small fire fight, Tano was able to subdue Parasitti and dispose of a bomb the changeling had planted in the apartment.<ref name="The Imposter Inside" /> =====Mission to Alderaan===== {{Quote|You know, you and Anakin make a good team.''"<br/>"''Thanks. I could say the same about the two of you.|Amidala and Tano, on Anakin|Unexpected Company}} At a later time, Skywalker arranged an an engagement to escort Senator Amidala on a [[Unidentified mission|mission]] to the planet Alderaan. Unbeknownst to Tano<ref name="Unexpected Company">{{FOD|Unexpected Company}}</ref> and the Jedi Council, Skywalker and Amidala had [[Wedding of Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala|secretly married]] shortly after the First Battle of Geonosis<ref name="AOTC">[[Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones|''Star Wars'': Episode II ''Attack of the Clones'']]</ref> and planned to use this mission to spend time alone together. To her Master's disgruntlement, however, Tano was also assigned to the mission at the suggestion of Kenobi,<ref name="Unexpected Company" /> who had some understanding of the couple's close relationship.<ref name="AOTC" /> Boarding a [[T-6 shuttle]], the trio departed from Coruscant and made the jump to hyperspace. Now wanting the mission to end as soon as possible, Skywalker changed the ship's flight trajectory to travel along a different route. Tano warned her Master that they would pass through a [[sector]] of suspected Separatist activity, and when the ship pulled out of hyperspace, true to the Padawan's word, they were met with five ''Munificent''-class star frigates. At the senator's command, Amidala and Tano manned the guns as Skywalker flew through the Confederate fleet.<ref name="Unexpected Company" /> Although the Jedi Knight's flying skills managed to get the ship through most of the fleet, one of the frigates was able to land a blow on the Republic shuttle, knocking the senator to the floor. As the smoke in the shuttle cleared, Tano saw that Skywalker had caught Amidala, who held her husband tightly in her arms. Seeing that the two were preoccupied, Tano took to the pilot's seat and managed to safely bring the ship to Alderaan. After landing, Skywalker thanked his Padawan for her help before leaving her and the senator alone. The two women shared a moment together, acknowledging each other's relationship with Anakin.<ref name="Unexpected Company" /> =====Training the senator===== [[File:PadmeAmidalaChromiumN1-SWZ.png|thumb|right|250px|Tano instructed Amidala in starfighter combat.]] {{Quote|You're getting better. Now just try to keep up with me.|Tano, to Amidala|The Starfighter Stunt}} Tano went on to train Senator Amidala in [[starfighter combat]], taking the [[Naboo (people)|Nabooian]] to a remote [[asteroid field]] to undergo flight exercises. Although Tano believed the field to be devoid of enemy forces, the duo were soon ambushed by a [[Unidentified vulture droid variant|modified vulture droid]] that was stationed on one of the asteroids. The droid pursued them through the field and immobilized Tano's [[N-1 starfighter]] with an [[ion torpedo]], knocking her unconscious. Using the Padawan's teachings, Amidala was able to defend her friend and destroy the droid. Tano came to and praised the senator for her instincts before the two journeyed back home.<ref name="The Starfighter Stunt">{{FOD|The Starfighter Stunt}}</ref> ====Skirmish on Coruscant==== {{Quote|Ahsoka... what happened?.''"<br />"''Let's just say there were some complications.|Anakin and Ahsoka|The Padawan Path}} [[File:Ahsoka The Padawan Path.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka runs into some complications on her way to the Jedi temple]] Tano was patrolling 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 a [[Unidentified Aleena mother|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 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> ====Lessons in 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. However, Tano had difficulty understanding the politics behind the war. The Padawan 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 Secundus]].<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 voted to be deregulated when there was an [[Bombing of Coruscant's central power distribution grid|attack]] on [[Central power distribution grid|the power generators]] on Courscant. 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" /> ===Continuation of the war=== ====Journey to Mortis==== [[File:AhsokaMeetsHerFutureSelf-Overlords.png|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka encountering her future self]] 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]], an ethereal realm within the Force.<ref name="Overlords">{{TCW|Overlords}}</ref> Inside, Skywalker quickly became separated from Kenobi and Tano, and the latter two found shelter as night fell. There, Tano was visited by a vision of her older self, warning against her attachment to Skywalker, saying she may never see her future if she remained his student. Her older self also said that Skywalker's attachment to the Dark Side would corrupt her if she did not remove herself from his teachings. Tano retorted that although her master was unconventional, she trusted him with her life and he trusted her. Soon after, Tano and Kenobi were both kidnapped by the [[Son]] and the [[Daughter]]. The [[Father (Mortis)|Father]], the master of the realm of Mortis, faced Skywalker with a choice to choose either Tano or Kenobi to save and the other to sacrifice. Skywalker opted to draw power from Mortis to save both his master and apprentice.<ref name="Overlords" /> [[File:AhsokaPossessed-TCWs3BR3.png|thumb|left|180px|Tano was briefly poisoned by the dark side on Mortis.]] Later, the three Jedi returned to their ship to try to leave but discovered they needed to make repairs. As they attempted to do so, Tano was kidnapped by the Son and imprisoned in a tower. As she tried to free herself, she heard a voice and found herself in the company of a creature which addressed her innermost doubts and fears, specifically regarding her master. Tano was defiant in her belief in Skywalker, but realized that she still had doubts. The creature then freed her and tried to convince her to forget her Master. When she refused, he bit her on the arm, and when Tano collapsed in pain, the creature revealed itself to be the Son. Tano was infected with the Dark Side of the Force.<ref name="Altar of Mortis">{{TCW|Altar of Mortis}}</ref> When Skywalker arrived to rescue Tano, the Son told him that if he did not join him, he would kill Ahsoka. Anakin refused, and the Son sent a corrupted Tano to attack her master in response. When Kenobi arrived with the [[Dagger of Mortis]], Tano became enraged, knowing that it could free her from the Son's presence. Tano held her own against Kenobi and Skywalker as the Son and the Daughter fought. Eventually, Tano stole the Dagger from Kenobi and, smirking, gave it to the Son. The Son, claiming Tano was no longer of use, [[Force drain|drained]] her life Force and instantly killed her.<ref name="Altar of Mortis" /> As Tano lay dead, the Son turned to kill the Father. Instead, the Daughter lunged and took the blow, and the horrified Son dropped the weapon as he saw that the Daughter was mortally wounded. The Daughter told Skywalker that she could save Tano if she used him as a conduit to channel her life force into her. They completed the procedure as the Daughter died, bringing Ahsoka back to life and purging her of the darkness.<ref name="Altar of Mortis" /> [[File:AhsokaFirstDeath-AOM.png|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka was killed by the Son and later resurrected]] Ahsoka was then able to repair the ship as Skywalker faced the Son, and as the Father took his own life, Skywalker killed the Son. The three left the realm of Mortis as the Father died and found themselves back with the Republic fleet. Upon communicating with Rex, they learned that they had only gone for a moment into Mortis and that almost no time had passed at all.<ref name="Ghosts of Mortis">{{TCW|Ghosts of Mortis}}</ref> ====Rejected==== [[File:AhsokaFrustrated.png|thumb|left|250px|Tano grows increasingly frustrated at Skywalker.]] Sometime later, Jedi Master [[Even Piell]] was [[Capture of Even Piell|captured]] by Separatist forces during his return from the Outer Rim. Piell carried vital information alongside Captain [[Wilhuff Tarkin]] involving the secret hyperspace lanes called the [[Nexus Route]], which the Separatists sought to obtain. Upon his capture, he was taken to an ancient prison known as [[the Citadel]], which had been designed to detain Jedi if any had strayed from their path. In order to [[Battle of Lola Sayu|rescue]] Master Piell, Skywalker, Kenobi, and Koon devised a plan to rescue him, and, as they exited the briefing room, Tano ran up beside them, apologizing for being late, citing that she had just heard about the briefing and asked for clarification on their rescue of Piell. As Skywalker stopped, Koon commented that Tano and Skywalker had much to discuss as Kenobi and Koon left to leave the two alone. With this, Skywalker informed Tano that she would not be allowed to come along on this assignment and, after she objected, he informed her that the Citadel had been created to detain Jedi in case they had lost their way and that it wasn't a place for Padawans. However, Tano argued that this wasn't fair and that Skywalker was merely being protective, asking how she was going to learn if Skywalker was not willing for her to risk herself. However, Skywalker continued on by saying that this wasn't a mission to be teaching lessons to a Padawan and that it was meant as a do or die type of mission, not willing to share this risk with his Padawan.<ref name="The Citadel">{{TCW|The Citadel}}</ref> As he walked away, Tano grew increasingly frustrated.<ref name="Citadel EG">{{SW|url=series/clone-wars/the-citadel-episode-gallery|text=The Citadel Episode Gallery|archivedate=20200601010851}}</ref> Shortly afterwards, Tano consulted Master Koon for guidance on Skywalker's decision. In response to her inquiry, Koon simply informed her that it was Skywalker's decision to decide whether or not she should be allowed to go. However, Tano once again cited her belief that Skywalker was being overprotective, saying that he had been choosing which assignments she could partake in. Koon then responded by once again saying that he was her master to which Tano said that it should be her choice when she wanted to risk her life. With that, Koon began to ponder her argument.<ref name="The Citadel" /> ====Rescuing Even Piell==== =====Scaling the cliff===== Eventually, Koon agreed with Tano's sentiment and, in a way, assigned her to the mission.<ref name="Citadel Rescue">{{TCW|Citadel Rescue}}</ref> After being "assigned," Tano was [[Carbon-freezing|frozen]] in [[carbonite]] and placed aboard their stolen [[Sheathipede-class transport shuttle|''Sheathipede''-class transport shuttle]] alongside Skywalker, Kenobi, and the clones. As they approached [[Lola Sayu]], the planet the Citadel was housed upon, [[Commandant]] [[Osi Sobeck]], the warden of the prison, grew increasingly suspicious of their true cargo and ordered for his droids to scan for lifeforms. However, after doing a full scan of the ship, the scanners came up empty, showing that the Republic's ruse had worked. As they arrived on the planet, the shuttle deviated from where it was assigned to land, choosing instead to hide within the volcanic canyons of the planet and unload their "cargo."<ref name="The Citadel" /> [[File:AhsokaCarbonite.png|thumb|right|250px|Tano emerges from carbonite.]] As Tano was unfrozen, Skywalker passingly acknowledged her presence before realizing that Tano wasn't supposed to be on the assignment. As Kenobi woke up alonside him, he noted that he believed he must have been given carbon sickness as he was seeing Tano was with them. In response, Skywalker confirmed to him that his sight was fine and that Tano's hearing was the thing that needed assistance instead. In defense, Tano explained that she had received orders from Koon and that she thought he had known about it. Skywalker grew more disgruntled with her as he told her that Koon had not told him about her joining the mission, which Tano followed up by saying that he had already been in carbonite when the decision had been made. Pointing at Tano, he once again informed her that he had specifically told her not to come, but Tano defended herself by saying that Skywalker had taught her that following direct orders wasn't always the right decision. With that, Kenobi walked over and commented on Skywalker's teaching style before welcoming Tano to the mission, leading Tano to smile. After Kenobi's inquiry, the discussion ended.<ref name="The Citadel" /> Before departing for the facility, Tano had a discussion with one of the 212th troopers accompanying them as [[CC-2224]] "Cody" was preparing his [[backpack]]. Once Cody finished preparing his pack, the two made their way to the cliff surrounding the Citadel. Arriving at a safe distance to avoid detection, Kenobi and Skywalker stopped to survey the cliff they were intending to climb in order to make their way to an entry point into the Citadel. Kenobi suggested that they use ascension cables, but was met with disapproval from Skywalker as he noted the [[electromine]]s dotting the cliff face and that the ascension cables would have nothing to grab onto without hitting the electromines, which would notify the entire prison of their presence. With this, Rex suggested that they freeclimb it which was met with approval from both Kenobi and Skywalker as the group continued their journey to the Citadel. <ref name="The Citadel" /> [[File:TheCitadel-TC.png|thumb|left|200px|The Citadel was a heavily guarded facility, making it difficult for the group to rescue Master Piell.]] The group soon began to climb the cliff face during which Skywalker asked how Tano was doing during her climb to which Tano simply said that she couldn't be better, but noted that the strong winds were providing a challenge. As they continued their climb, Kenobi traveled up to the platform where the entry point the group wished to enter through was located, but was stopped when several droids appeared through the entry point, forcing him to tell the rest of the group to remain silent, causing them to briefly pause their climb. As the droids returned inside, they activated a [[ray shield]], which Kenobi noted to the rest of the group, leading Skywalker to become distressed as the ray shield wasn't originally in the plan. Continuing her climb, Tano noted that an opening was near the door and that she might be able to squeeze through the ventilation ducts and disable to ray shield. Skywalker then met her proposal with approval after an inquiry from Kenobi and she made her way to the shaft and entered, arriving just outside the ray shielded door. As she exited, she checked for any droid patrols, noticing none and made her way to the door controls, simply pressing a single button and deactivating the ray shield. As Skywalker, entered she tried to show off to him, noting that she could handle herself. However, as the rest of the group finished making their way up to the platform, a clone named "[[Charger]]" lost his grip on the cliff and began tumbling down towards the lava below, hitting an electromine on his way down and alerting the entire facility to the group's presence. With that, all security protocols were activated, the entire facility was placed on lockdown, and Sobeck's special units were assigned to hunt the group down.<ref name="The Citadel" /> =====Freeing Master Piell===== As they stealthily made their way through the hallways of the facility, Tano served as lookout as they traversed through said hallways. As they neared Piell's cell, Skywalker ordered [[Advanced Recon Commando|ARC trooper]] [[CT-5555]] "Fives" to take out their surveillance leading several [[automated laser trap]]s to attack the group, although they were easily taken out by their combined efforts. However, an eletrified wall soon activated, forcing the group to run to cover, and killing "[[Longshot]]," not managing to take cover in time. Even so, Kenobi ordered for the group to keep moving. As Master Piell was being tortured, the group arrived just in time to save him before an [[Unidentified EV-series medical droid|EV-series medical droid]] would've removed his one remaining [[eye]]. As the group arrived, Skywalker freed Master Piell from his [[containment field]] while Kenobi cradled him back to the ground. As he stood back up, he confirmed he had not revealed the coordinates of the Nexus Route as Kenobi handed him his lightsaber back. However, Master Piell also confirmed that he only had half of the coordinates of the Nexus Route and that his captain had the other half, forcing the group to free them as well. With this, Skywalker was forced to come up with a new plan for escaping the facility and, with that, the group made their way to the second cell.<ref name="The Citadel" /> [[File:RescuersvsDroids Citadel.png|thumb|right|250px|The group defends itself from Sobeck's special units.]] As they made their way there, Sobeck's special units—six commando droids, specially designed with the logo of the Citadel on their armor plating—arrived, surrounding the group and beginning their attack. During the battle, one of the commando droids tackled Tano and wrestled her to the ground before she managed to cut off its head, disabling it. Shortly afterwards, Sobeck employed the use of a ringing noise, distracting the group, and activating a magentic field, allowing him take their weapons and attracting Skywalker's cybernetic hand as Sobeck began to electrocute him, leading Tano called out towards him. Soon after, more of Sobeck's special units arrived as Sobeck announced that they were going be his "guests" for a very long time as they appeared to have been captured. However, Piell, Kenobi, and Tano used the Force to attempt to knock the droids over, but instead discovered that the droids were magnetized to the floor. Even so, the group continued this tactic, causing the droids' shots to miss their targets as the clones attempted to destroy them using their bare hands; however, the droids instead knocked them to the ground. As they did this, Skywalker managed to grab his lightsaber as Sobeck continued to electrify him and deactivate the magnetic field, returning each weapon to its respective group member and leading Skywalker to fall back towards the floor. With that, the group easily managed to destroy the commando droids as they continued their way towards the officers' cell. Before Rex left, he shot the camera Sobeck had been using to watch them, causing him to lose track of where they were.<ref name="The Citadel" /> Finally arriving at their intended destination, the group opened the door as Tano swooped in from behind Skywalker, kicking one of the commando droids to the ground and eliminating it through the use of one of her lightsabers. As the rest of the group arrived in the cell, Tarkin, Piell's captain, noted their presence and asked how they were going to get out of the facility. With that, Kenobi offered a solution where he and Skywalker split up, assigning Piell and Tarkin to separate groups in case either was captured. Although briefly rejecting the idea, Tarkin eventually gave in after an inquiry from Piell and was assigned to Skywalker's group alongside Tano as Piell went with Kenobi's group.<ref name="The Citadel" /> Kenobi's group intended to cause a distraction on their way to the landing pad to meet with their shuttle while Skywalker's group used the old fortress tunnels in order to maneuver around the facility and make it towards the pipeline where they too would be rescued by the shuttle.<ref name="Counterattack">{{TCW|Counterattack}}</ref> =====Journey to the pipeline===== [[File:TanoTarkinRex.png|thumb|left|250px|Tano travels through the fortress tunnels alongside Rex and Tarkin.]] While Kenobi and Piell created a diversion, Skywalker, using old archive data, led his group to one of the tunnels in order to allow them to exit the facility. As they made their way out, Tano rushed ahead to make sure the tunnel was free of droids, discovering none and notifying the group as much.<ref name="The Citadel" /> With that, Tano made her way back to the rest of the group as they traversed the old tunnel. As they continued to walk across the tunnel, Skywalker asked R2 if he and his battle droids were ready to depart as Tano surveyed the tunnel. Continuing to see if any droids occupied the tunnel, Tano continued to serve as a lookout for the group as a [[Probe droid|probe]] [[Viper recon droid|droid]] appeared, but was subsequently cut down by Skywalker before being able to alert Sobeck of their presence. While Tano looked towards the lava below, Tarkin informed Tano that he admired the design of the fortress because of how formidable it had been to evade thus far to which Tano asked how he could admire such a place. To this, Tarkin noted that the ongoing incident showed that it is effective at its job, but that it was a pity that the fortress had been captured by the Separatists, which Skywalker responded to Tano's responsive stare by telling her that Tarkin had a point. However, Tano gave him a bewildered look upon him saying this. With that, Skywalker informed Tano that he would be departing the group for a short while and that he needed her to lead it for the time being which led Tano to ask were he was going to which he noted that he needed to protect their flank since Kenobi was not with them. With that, Tano looked towards Skywalker and noted that it might have been a good thing she came after all while possessing a proud look on her face.<ref name="Counterattack" /> As they continued walking, Tarkin expressed his doubt in Tano's ability to lead the group to Rex to which Rex noted that he trusted her after the many missions the two had been on together. However, as the pair's conversation continued, the group came across a dead end in the tunnel. Just then, super battle droids began to appear from their flank, forcing Tano to activate her lightsabers and defend the group. As she did this, Skywalker swooped down and cut one of the super battle droids in half and did the same to the other. However commando droids, wielding [[personal energy shield|personal]] [[Droid commando personal shield|energy shields]], soon arrived, forcing them back into action. Tano then defended herself by saying that she thought it was a dead end, which ended up being to her detriment as Skywalker informed her that if Koon had indeed assigned her to the mission, he would've briefed her on the plan. However, Tano ignored this and instead ran to the wall and began placing thermal detonators onto it. Thinking that she had placed enough, she ran back into the action with two [[Class-A thermal detonator]]s that had been leftover and used them to destroy the attacking commando droids as the wall blew up behind the group. With that, Tano walked past Skywalker, smiling at him, as the group continued its journey.<ref name="Counterattack" /> [[File:TanoAndSkywalkerDefendThePipeline.png|thumb|right|250px|Tano and Skywalker defend the pipeline.]] Arriving at the pipeline, Tano rushed ahead to gain a better perspective on it as Skywalker explained where the pipeline led and the plan for their escape. He then opened the hatch as the group had to shield their [[nose]]s from the noxious fumes coming out of the pipeline. Tano then ventured into the pipeline, being the first to enter. As the group made it up the pipeline, Tano climbed from the outside and used her acrobatic skills to maneuver around and make it to the top of the pipeline. Cautiously skimming across it, Tano eventually stopped and informed the group that she thought she found a way out. Opening the hatch, she notified the group that there were no droids present as well as informing them that R2 had not yet arrived with the shuttle. As she attempted to climb out of the hatch, however, two battle droids pointed their blasters at her, but she easily managed to destroy them using her lightsabers, but soon discovered many more battle droids as well as [[LM-432 crab droid|crab droids]] advancing on their position. Even so, the group made their way out of the pipeline and towards the advancing droids. As Tarkin and the clones exited the pipeline, Tano and Skywalker defended them, deflecting as many of the droids' blaster bolts as was possible using their lightsabers. However, the group was soon forced to escape as they became overwhelmed by the number of droids. As Tano took cover along with the rest of the group, Skywalker took a thermal detonator and threw it at the hatch, closing it and destroying the entire pipeline along with the droids. With that, Skywalker informed them that they would now be following plan B, which was to meet up with the shuttle where Kenobi was supposed to be located.<ref name="Counterattack" /> =====Plan B===== [[File:SkywalkersGroupRushesIn.png|thumb|left|250px|Skywalker's group arrives.]] As Skywalker's group arrived at the landing platform, they discovered Kenobi's group pinned down by several [[turret]]s surrounding the shuttle. In response to this, Skywalker's group was forced to take cover alongside Kenobi's group. While pinned down, Tano noted that the ship was surrounded to which Tarkin offered a solution in the way of a full-scale assault on the droids. However, Kenobi noted that if they did that the turrets would simply destroy the ship and their only chance of escape, but Tarkin offered up a counter solution where they take over the turrets and decimate the droids surrounding the shuttle. As they continued their conversation, Skywalker pointed out the [[Single Trooper Aerial Platform|STAPs]] headed for them as they began to fire upon them, destroying the crates behind them and forcing the four Jedi to ignite their lightsabers. The Jedi managed to use this to their advantage, however, as Skywalker managed to grab hold of one of the STAPs in an attempt to destroy the turrets. However, more droid reinforcements continued to arrive alongside several commando droids, one of which climbed into one of the turrets and attempted to destroy the shuttle. Seeing this, ARC trooper [[CT-1409]] "Echo" ran out into the open in an attempt to claim the shuttle, but the shuttle was instead destroyed and Echo was thought dead; however, the debris from the destruction of the shuttle managed to destroy the turret the commando droid was manning. With the shuttle now destroyed, the now once again combined group was forced to make a tactical retreat.<ref name="Counterattack" /> As the group escaped, Kenobi and Skywalker contacted the Jedi on Coruscant and informed them that they were going to need a rescue since their shuttle had been destroyed. Finally finding cover, Tano conversed with one of the rescued officers as Kenobi, Piell, and Skywalker discussed how they were going to make it to the rendezvous point and decided that they would just have to keep moving. With that, the group moved out, making their way towards the rendezvous point, believing that they still had a chance to escape.<ref name="Counterattack" /> =====Journey to the rendezvous point===== As the group passed by a lava cave, Tano asked what the group's next move was to which Skywalker said that they were going to have to fight their way off of Lola Sayu, leading to Kenobi asking for someone to contact the Council and see when they were planning rescue them, which Piell took responsibility of. With that, R2 displayed a hologram of Windu who said that he was glad to see Piell alive. Skywalker then walked over to them and asked when they were planning on rescuing them to which Windu informed them that Koon had already left for Lola Sayu. Adding onto this, Yoda informed them that gunships would arrive to extract them, but that only a small window would be there for them to be rescued, so they had to the rendezvous point. Yoda then informed them where the rendezvous point would be—a small island surrounded by lava. Windu then wished for the Force to be with them and ended the transmission. As the transmission ended, the group was ambushed by commando droids but easily destroyed them with the use of a timely thermal detonator from Fives. With that, the group moved out to reach the rendezvous point in time with Kenobi noting that more droids were surely on their way.<ref name="Citadel Rescue" /> [[File:ClimbingDownTheCliff.png|thumb|right|250px|The group climbs down the cliff.]] The group was soon discovered by Sobeck's droid forces, which led Tano to exclaim that the droids were boxing them in. In order to escape, Skywalker and Kenobi used their [[ascension gun]]s to carry the members of the group with no weapon down the cliff they were in front of. While doing so, Tano defended them against the droids along with the rest of the group as R2 ordered for his droids to attack the enemy. The rest of the group took this opportunity to escape and used the ascension cables to carry themselves down the cliff. Finally making it to the surface, the commando droids continued to fire on them above after easily destroying R2's droids as the group attempted to make it through an opening into a cave while Cody and Skywalker covered their escape.<ref name="Citadel Rescue" /> As they passed by a river of lava, Tarkin wondered aloud if the Jedi would be there when they arrived at the rendezvous point to which Piell said that, if he kept moving, he wouldn't have to worry about it. Looking back at Tarkin, Tano sneered and rolled her eyes at him before facing forward once more to continue moving. As she ducked under an outstretched rock, Tano asked why Piell had to share half of the coordinates of the Nexus Route with Tarkin, believing he wasn't grateful they had rescued him. In response, Skywalker informed her that Tarkin believed that the Jedi should not be in charge of leading the Grand Army of the Republic in the Clone Wars to which Tano said that his beliefs were ridiculous. Skywalker continued on by saying that the Jedi were meant to be peacekeepers as opposed to soldiers, which is what they had become during the war and that the Jedi Code often prevented them from achieving victory to which Kenobi inquired by saying that Skywalker's point of view was quite simple. To this, Skywalker said that Tarkin was a good captain. As they continued walking, the group heard the howl of the [[anooba]]s which led Tano to ask the rest of the group if they had heard the howl as well. Attempting to outrun the anoobas, Skywalker later told Tarkin that it was not wise to disobey Piell, especially for his career, while Tano watched. In response, Tarkin said that he stood by his principles no matter the circumstance and that his career was not to worry about since the chancellor favored him to which Skywalker said that he and the chancellor were also friends. However, Kenobi told them to hurry up or they'd miss their rendezvous and the two's conversation ended.<ref name="Citadel Rescue" /> [[File:EvenPiellDying-CR.png|thumb|left|250px|Master Piell gives his half of the coordinates to Tano.]] Nearing a cave, the anoobas had almost caught up with the group, which Fives noted. Skywalker then said that they would have to deal with them so that they did not lead the droids to them to which Tano offered the cave they had been nearing to launch a surprise attack on them. To this, Piell said that they might be able to get the anoobas to pass by, but they'd need a distraction in order to do so to which Skywalker offered himself up as well as Kenobi who inquired by the way of a fake cough. Tano then went with the rest of the group to hide in the cave as Kenobi and Skywalker walked with R2 through a misty path of rocks. As the anoobas arrived along with several commando droids riding STAPs, Tano and the rest of the group went to spring the trap; however, before they could arrive, crab droids appeared off the side of the cliff and attacked the group, quickly killing one of the liberated clones. Piell quickly managed to kill that crab droid, but more continued to arrive, leading Piell to order the clones to keep moving while he and Tano dealt with the crab droids. While defending against them, Tano used both of her lightsabers in order to defend against her crab droid while Piell easily managed to destroy his. Tano soon managed to destroy one of the other crab droids that had arrived while the two were overlooked by one of the anoobas. It quickly sprung into action and tackled Piell, forcing Tano to attempt to save him. Tano was too late, however, as, after using the Force to push the anooba away, Piell laid dying on the ground. As Tano reattached her lightsabers to her belt, she checked for Piell's vitals and exclaimed that she needed to get help, but was stopped by Piell who told her that he needed to tell her his half of the Nexus Route coordinates. Tano attempted to tell him that she should go get Skywalker or Kenobi, but Piell insisted that she hear them instead. To this, Tano admitted that she hadn't truly been assigned to the mission, but Piell did not care, informing her that now she was one of the most important pieces of the mission whether she was meant to be here or not and that she give his half of the coordinates of the Nexus Route only to the Jedi Council. With that, Piell gave Tano his half of the coordinates.<ref name="Citadel Rescue" /> As the rest of the group finished off the remaining droids, Tano arrived carrying the dead body of Piell. As she carried him, she gave his body to Skywalker who laid him on the ground. With this, Tano informed them that Piell had died honorably and that she had his half of the coordinates. The group then brought him to a lavafall where Kenobi and Skywalker used the Force to drop his body into the lava and took a moment to honor him before they moved on. As the group continued their journey to the rendezvous point, they finally came across the island where they were meant to be extracted, Cody and Skywalker used their ascension guns to launch a cable so that they could climb over to the island as it was surrounded by lava. However, more commando droids then arrived on STAPs along with Sobeck, who had finally decided to deal with them himself. As Sobeck was knocked out of the sky by Fives, he grabbed onto Tarkin and began to choke him, preparing to throw him into the lava as Tano was forced to kill him with her one of her lightsabers in order to save Tarkin. Tarkin then thanked Tano and informed Skywalker that he had trained her well. Just then, Koon finally arrived with the gunship as more crab droids arrived. Tano, as well as the rest of the group, easily managed to board the gunship and they took off while being flanked by Jedi Masters [[Saesee Tiin]], [[Adi Gallia]], and Kit Fisto flanking them in [[Saesee Tiin's Delta-7B Aethersprite-class light interceptor/Canon|their]] [[Adi Gallia's Delta-7B Aethersprite-class light interceptor|own]] [[Kit Fisto's Delta-7B Aethersprite-class light interceptor|interceptors]]. As the ''Venator''s prepared to jump to hyperspace, the gunship safely made its way back into the hangar as Koon gave Admiral [[Coburn]] the go-ahead to jump to hyperspace, leaving Lola Sayu behind.<ref name="Citadel Rescue" /> ====The coordinates==== [[File:AhsokaTarkin-CR.png|thumb|right|225px|Tarkin informs the Jedi that he would only give his half of the coordinates to the Supreme Chancellor]] Arriving back at Coruscant, the group was met by several members of the [[Coruscant Guard]] as well as Yoda and Windu. During their subsequent conversation, Kenobi informed the Jedi that Tano and Tarkin had each memorized half of the coordinates for the Nexus Route, but Tarkin told them that he was told by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine himself to bring the coordinates directly to him, which Tano then informed the group that she had promised Piell that she would only deliver the coordinates of the Nexus Route to the Jedi Council. Yoda then left to meet with the chancellor to decide what the best course of action was. As Tano turned to leave with the rest of the group, she was stopped when Skywalker asked Koon if he had assigned her to the mission to which Koon said that it appeared he had which was met with Tano's suprise as well as Kenobi and Skywalker's dismay. Koon then brought Tano along with him to enter the Jedi Temple.<ref name="Citadel Rescue" /> ====Campaign at Umbara==== [[File:AhsokaFighter-DoU.png|thumb|left|250px|Tano led a Republic starfighter squadron over Umbara.]] After the [[Umbaran]]s sided with the Separatists, the Grand Army of the Republic was dispatched to [[Battle of Umbara|claim]] [[Umbara]] back. In order to break through the [[Umbara blockade|blockade]] surrounding the planet, Tano and Offee were tasked with leading several fighter squadrons in an attack on the blockade. At some point during the battle, Tano and Offee led a squadron comprised of [[Z-95 Headhunters]] and Y-wing bombers in an attack on a ''Munificent''-class star frigate, finally managing to destroy it and clearing the way for the Republic to launch their ground assault on the planet.<ref name="Darkness on Umbara">{{TCW|Darkness on Umbara}}</ref> Eventually, after a lengthy space and ground battle, the Republic claimed victory at Umbara.<ref name="Carnage of Krell">{{TCW|Carnage of Krell}}</ref> ====Combating the Zygerrian Slave Empire==== After the planet [[Kiros]] fell under the threat of Separatist invasion, Tano accompanied Skywalker, Kenobi, Rex, and Cody to assist the planet's native Togruta population. After battling commando droids and [[sharpshooter droideka]]s, Kenobi headed into the [[governor's tower]] to negotiate with the [[Zygerrian]] [[Darts D'Nar]], who was serving as the commander of the Separatist forces. Noticing her master's anger and frustration with the proposition of negotiating with a slaver, Tano soon learned that her master was a former slave, something he had never told her. When D'Nar double-crossed Kenobi and attempted to escape to his ship, ''[[Tecora]]'', Tano and Skywalker pursued him on [[All Terrain Recon Transport|AT-RTs]]. After disabling the ''Tecora's'' engines, Tano sneaked onto the bridge and defeated D'Nar in a duel. After interrogation, they learned the natives were sold into slavery on D'Nar's homeworld of [[Zygerria]].<ref name="Kidnapped">{{TCW|Kidnapped}}</ref> Tano, Skywalker, Kenobi, Rex, and R2 then took the ''Tecora'' to Zygerria, with Tano posing as Skywalker's slave to meet with the Zygerrian queen, [[Miraj Scintel]]. However, when one of Scintel's slaves attempted to assassinate her before committing suicide, Skywalker decided to offer Tano as Scintel's new slave. Winning the Queen's favor, he earned himself an invite to the slave auction taking place that night. Meanwhile, Tano was put in a cage outside, but would escape to aid her master at the auction. However, they discovered Kenobi had been captured, and they failed to overcome the Zygerrians, who shipped Kenobi and Rex to a [[Kadavo slave processing facility|slave processing facility]] while Scintel imprisoned Tano and Skywalker in her palace.<ref name="SOTR">{{TCW|Slaves of the Republic}}</ref> Skywalker was able to escape the guards with the help of R2 and then freed Tano. Skywalker learned from a dying Scintel, who was killed by the recently summoned Dooku for being unwilling to turn over Skywalker, that Kenobi and Rex were imprisoned on the planet [[Kadavo]]. Tano and Skywalker reclaimed their ship and went to free their companions. When they landed at the facility, their ship was destroyed and they were quickly pinned down. When Dooku threatened to execute the slaves if they did not stop their attack, Republic reinforcements, the [[104th Battalion]] led by Plo Koon arrived to help. Tano and Skywalker then split up with Tano rendezvousing with the slaves and her master disabling the defense turrets. Tano located the slaves and directed Koon to fly gunships underneath the facility to help the slaves escape. After rescuing the slaves, including Kenobi and Rex, Koon's men destroyed the facility.<ref name="EfK">{{TCW|Escape from Kadavo}}</ref> ====Entanglement with Death Watch==== Tano accompanied Amidala to the first ever sanctioned [[Confederate–Republic peace conference|peace conference]] between the Republic and Confederacy. However, the negotiations were interrupted by [[Junior senator]] Lux Bonteri,<ref name="A Friend in Need">{{TCW|A Friend in Need}}</ref> who Tano had befriended earlier in the war during Amidala and Mina Bonteri's failed peace initiative.<ref name="Heroes on Both Sides" /> Bonteri accused Count Dooku of being responsible for his mother's death, and Tano left the meeting to protect Bonteri from possible retribution. Sneaking aboard a Separatist landing craft, Tano intervened when Dooku ordered Bonteri's execution via hologram. Tano was intent on bringing Bonteri to Coruscant to be granted amnesty, but Bonteri had other plans. Bonteri shocked Tano with a small device, knocking her out and bringing their ship to [[Carlac]] to meet with a group Bonteri promised would help him get his revenge on Dooku.<ref name="A Friend in Need" /> Bonteri made Tano leave her lightsabers on the ship to meet with the group. Tano quickly realized that the group was Death Watch, and told Mandalorian [[Nite Owls|Nite Owl]] [[Bo-Katan Kryze]] that she was Bonteri's betrothed to keep her identity as a Jedi a secret. When Kryze left them both alone before their meeting with Pre Vizsla, Tano learned of Bonteri's plan to convince Death Watch, who recently had a falling out with the Sith Lord, to assassinate Dooku. Tano warned Bonteri that Death Watch still had their own agenda and could not trusted, but Bonteri kissed her to interrupt her as Vizsla arrived. Vizsla forced Tano to work alongside natives that Death Watch used as slave labor. Later, when Death Watch began to pillage and burn [[Ming Po town|a village]], Tano attempted to fight back but was imprisoned. However, when Vizsla drew the Darksaber, intent on killing Tano, R2, who had been forced to repair Death Watch droids they used for entertainment in a fighting ring, uses a smoke screen as a diversion and slips Tano her lightsabers that he recovered from the ship. Tano acrobatically freed herself and beheaded a group of Mandalorians approaching her before dueling Vizsla. When R2 set the droids on their masters, the three escaped from Vizsla. When Bonteri piloted a speeder back to their ship, Tano defended him from Kryze and the other Mandalorians. After successfully escaping Carlac, Bonteri used an escape pod to avoid being brought to Coruscant, leaving Tano behind.<ref name="A Friend in Need">{{TCW|A Friend in Need}}</ref> ====Training Onderon's Rebels==== [[File:RebelsInspectGenerator-FR.png|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka, Lux, and Steela scouting the Separatist forces.]] Tano, along with her master Skywalker, Kenobi, and Captain Rex was ordered by the Jedi Council to train and assist the [[Onderon rebels|rebels]] of Onderon in their [[Onderonian Civil War|fight]] against the newly installed 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. Tano, her fellow Jedi, and Rex were successful in teaching the rebels how to fight 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 while Skywalker, Kenobi, and Rex returned to Republic lines.<ref name="A War on Two Fronts" /> Even as the Rebels had continued success, public opinion did not think very highly of them. Hoping to change public opinion, the Rebels, Tano, Bonteri and the Gerreras destroyed the power generator to disrupt the battle droid patrols throughout Iziz, and after their victory, Steela was given the title of leader of the Rebels.<ref>{{TCW|Front Runners}}</ref> However, the Separatist response to the growing resistance was swift. Dooku sent General Kalani to reinforce their grip on the planet and ordered the former King, [[Ramsis Dendup]], to be executed. Saw went in to attempt to save the King himself, was captured. Tano then assisted Steela in planning a breakout of the two during the public execution. They rescued King Dendup and Saw and fled the city. However, she exposed the Jedi's presence when she had to use the Force during the rescue.<ref name="The Soft War">{{TCW|The Soft War}}</ref> Tano and the rebels regrouped in their [[The nest|base]], which was located in the [[Onderon highlands|highlands]] outside of Iziz and awaited a Separatist response. They were soon assaulted by Kalani's forces, including the new [[HMP droid gunship]], which inflicted heavy casualties on the rebels' side and could not be touched by the weaponry at their disposal. Tano decided to call in a favor from Skywalker, who made a deal with Hondo Ohnaka to get several rocket launchers delivered to the rebels. Ohnaka made the delivery himself, and the new weapons turned the tide of the battle. As the Rebels turned their new weaponry on the last of the gunships, Tano and Bonteri rushed to save the King from a force of commando droids. While they saved the King, a gunship shot down by Saw careened into their location, causing Steela to almost fall off of the cliff. As she hung on, Bonteri rushed to save her, but fell over himself. Tano used the Force to save Bonteri, but while she did the same for Steela, the gunship fired on her, wounding her and causing her to drop Steela to her death. In the aftermath of the battle, Tano was shaken from her role in Steela's death despite their victory. Saw was also bitter and at his sister's funeral, rejecting Tano's attempt to apologize for her failure.<ref name="Tipping Points">{{TCW|Tipping Points}}</ref> ====The Gathering==== Tano accompanied the younglings [[Petro]], [[Katooni]], [[Zatt]], [[Ganodi]], [[Gungi]], and [[Byph]] to the planet Ilum for [[The Gathering]], where younglings found their own lightsaber crystals on the icy planet. At the [[Crystal Caves]], the group was received by Master Yoda, who imparted wisdom on the younglings before they entered the cave.<ref name="The Gathering">{{TCW|The Gathering (episode)|The Gathering}}</ref> Tano returned the younglings to the ''[[Crucible]]'' to bring them back to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, as the younglings interacted with Professor [[Huyang]] to begin construction of their lightsabers. However, the ''Crucible'' was attacked by the Ohnaka Gang, who sought to steal the kyber crystals and sell them. As they are boarded, Tano led the younglings and Huyang into the ship's ventilation systems to hide. Sending Zatt and Ganodi to join R2-D2 in securing the cockpit, Tano revealed her plan to eject the pirate's boarding tube by rerouting power to the ''Crucible's'' engines. However, the younglings were discovered and had to flee the ventilation system. As the younglings set their [[Marksman-H training remote|training remotes]] on their attackers, Tano arrived to engage the pirates. When Tano instructed Zatt to fire the engines, she was captured by Ohnaka's pirates and taken captive, leaving the younglings alone.<ref name="Test">{{TCW|A Test of Strength}}</ref> Tano was held captive at [[Hondo's complex]], where she was incarcerated and taunted by the pirates. EVentually, Hondo's gang was entertained by [[Preigo's Traveling World of Wonder]], which the younglings had joined as a means to sneak in and free Tano. Katooni ended up stealing Tano's lightsabers from a drunken Ohnaka, freeing Tano and fleeing towards the ''Crucible''.<ref name="Bound for Rescue">{{TCW|Bound for Rescue}}</ref> However, Ohnaka destroyed the ''Crucible'' with a [[WLO-5 speeder tank]]. The Jedi were recaptured, ignoring Tano's appeal to let the younglings go. However, the pirates arrived back at their base to find General Grievous and the Separatist army destroying it. Ohnaka and many of his pirates were captured, but freed by Tano and the younglings, who allied to drive the Separatists away. Eventually, the pirates begin to escape, with Ohnaka piloting the rebuilt ''[[Slave I]]''. Tano convinced him to rescue them as she dueled Grievous. Holding her own with the Separatist General, she eventually jumped over him and fled, leaping onto ''Slave I'' and escaping with the younglings and pirates to [[Unidentified task force|a Republic task force]].<ref name="Bond">{{TCW|A Necessary Bond}}</ref> ====Bombing at the Jedi Temple==== [[File:Epguide517.png|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka helping in the investigation of the Jedi Temple bombing.]] Towards the end of the war, Ahsoka Tano noticed that Jedi Master Yoda became less happy as the war dragged on; the Togruta observed the Jedi Master's "deep sorrow" and his burden of seemingly knowing that an ending neared and the ensuing instatement of a new era.<ref name="Shroud of Darkness">{{Rebels|Shroud of Darkness}}</ref> At the age of 16,<ref name="AEYNTK" /> Ahsoka Tano's 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. In the aftermath of the incident, which killed six Jedi as well as several clones and Jedi Temple workers, Tano and Skywalker were called back from the [[Defense of Cato Neimoidia|defense]] of the planet [[Cato Neimoidia]] to investigate the situation along with [[SP-4 ISC|crime scene analysis droid]] [[Russo-ISC]]. Before they began, Mace Windu told them that it was possible a Jedi was behind the attack. This deeply bothered both Tano and Skywalker. When Tano asked her master about the possibility, he told her that there will be Jedi who disappoint, but they will be far outnumbered by those who do the right thing.<ref name="Sabotage">{{TCW|Sabotage (episode)|Sabotage}}</ref> Their investigation included interviewing witnesses and visiting the hangar where the bombing took place. Their search narrowed down the suspect list to a Temple worker named [[Jackar Bowmani]]. They traveled to his apartment and discovered that his spouse, [[Letta Turmond]] was the guilty party. She had fed Bowmani nano-droids that made him a living bomb. Their findings brushed over the possibility of a Jedi culprit. Turmond was incarcerated in a prison and guarded by [[Shock trooper]]s. When Tano went to interview her, Offee used a [[Force choke]] on Turmond, which killed her and framed Tano. Offee continued her work of framing her friend and caused the deaths of [[clone trooper]]s. Clones spotted the footage of Tano seemingly killing Turmond and arrested her.<ref name="Sabotage" /> [[File:AhsokaUnderArrest-TJWKTM.png|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka is arrested by Commander Fox.]] While she was imprisoned despite being innocent, she noticed a key card to the cell outside and used the Force to free herself. She believed that Skywalker had put it there because he had not been allowed to visit her. Knowing that she was innocent but not knowing how to convince the others of it, Tano decided to escape. However, after traveling only a short distance, she found multiple dead clone troopers and her lightsabers and comlink among the bodies. Little did she know, Offee had planted them to continue framing her. Clone Commander [[CC-1010|"Fox"]] noticed her and sounded the alarm.<ref name="The Jedi Who Knew Too Much">{{TCW|The Jedi Who Knew Too Much}}</ref> Running away from Republic authorities, she defended herself as clones shot stun blasts to apprehend her. Pursued by Rex, Fox, Sergeant [[Hound]], and others, she fled into the industrial areas outside of the [[Naval Intelligence headquarters|Republic military base]]. She was pursued by gunships and searchlights, and lost her shoto during the chase. Turning down into the pipes system, she temporarily hid from her pursuers until Skywalker caught up as she was preparing to jump down into the [[Coruscant underworld]]. Skywalker told her that they could help her prove she was innocent, but Tano retorted that she was unwilling to face trial and punishment for something she did not do. Knowing that no one would believe her, Tano decided to go off on her own and jumped onto a [[Coruscant Freighter|ship]] that was descending into the underworld.<ref name="TJWKTM">{{TCW|The Jedi Who Knew Too Much}}</ref> [[File:LAAT Gunship in front of Ahsoka Tano.png|thumb|left|296x296px|Ahsoka fleeing from her pursuers.]] As Tano struggled to keep herself hidden from [[Coruscant underworld police]] and other Republic patrols searching for her, she contacted her friend Offee, who promised to help her investigate to clear her name. Tano then destroyed her comlink and acquired a cloak for disguise. She boarded a train, but when she attempted to exit before she was asked for a pass by the police, she was surrounded by police forces outside. After fighting them off and fleeing, she was attacked by her longtime nemesis Asajj Ventress, who sought the bounty on her head. However, Tano convinced Ventress to ally with her, offering a pardon from the Galactic Senate in return for her help.<ref name="To Catch a Jedi">{{TCW|To Catch a Jedi}}</ref> Tano used a public holographic system to contact Offee, the only Jedi whom she still saw as an ally, unaware that she was responsible for her situation. Offee informed her of a warehouse she said was where Turmond had obtained the nano-droids. Tano convinced Ventress to come with her to the location, but she was spotted by Commander Wolffe and a group of [[shock trooper]]s. Tano attempted to negotiate with them, but the clones attempted to detain her and she was forced to combat them, leaving most of the group unconscious before continuing towards the warehouse. Ventress departed at that point, reminding her to fulfill her end of the deal. Inside, Tano found the warehouse abandoned before being attacked by a figure in Ventress' bounty hunter gear. Unaware she was actually fighting her friend Offee, whom she thought was her ally, she believed the attacker was Ventress. After a short duel, Tano was knocked to the ground next to a crate of nano-droids. When she rose, she was stunned by Commander Wolffe before she could explain herself.<ref name="To Catch a Jedi">{{TCW|To Catch a Jedi}}</ref> The Jedi Council attempted to deal with the matter internally, but were convinced by now Admiral Wilhuff Tarkin that the trial would be a Republic military trial. Despite opposition from Kenobi, the Council agreed to Tarkin's demands and expelled Tano from the Jedi Order and turned her over to the Republic for a military [[Trial of Ahsoka Tano|trial]]. Tano was prosecuted by Tarkin and defended by Padmé Amidala. As the trial began, Tano remained confident her master would sort things out and prove her innocence. As Tarkin lobbied for a conviction and death sentence, Tano watched with shock as Skywalker brought an imprisoned Offee to the trial. Tano was acquitted as the captive Offee confessed to her crimes, citing that the Jedi Order was losing its way for her motive.<ref name="The Wrong Jedi" /> ===A new path=== ====Leaving her old life behind==== {{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 Tano's 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" /> To the surprise of everyone involved,<ref name="In Search of the Crystal">{{TCW|In Search of the Crystal}}</ref> she refused to accept the Jedi Council and Skywalker's invitation to rejoin the Order.<ref name="The Wrong Jedi" /> Tano instead 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> Skywalker chased after her, and, while Kenobi moved as well, Koon held the Jedi Master back. Having caught up with Tano, Skywalker asked her why she wanted to leave and begged her to stay. Tano explained that she felt that as the Council lost faith in her, she could no longer find the confidence to trust in herself. Skywalker reminded her that he had believed in and fought to prove her innocence, and although Tano accepted this, the situation was not about him. She felt she could not stay anymore and needed to find her own path away from the Jedi Order. Skywalker then told her that he understood the feeling of wanting to leave the Jedi, but Tano simply responded that she knew, and as Skywalker looked at her, his former Padawan turned her back and walked away from the Jedi Order.<ref name="The Wrong Jedi" /> [[File:Ahsoka leaves.jpg|thumb|right|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 [[Great 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 from the Order.<ref name="Yoda's Vision Q&A">{{SWYoutube|t-1dYU_PHaI|Yoda's Visions – The Lost Missions Q&A <nowiki>|</nowiki> Star Wars: The Clone Wars|archivedate=20160512232244}}</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> Following her departure, Skywalker continued to lament his Padawan's decision, and wondered if Amidala had the same thought. During Skywalker and Amidala's [[Mission to Batuu (Clone Wars)|mission]] on the planet [[Mokivj]], the Senator cited Tano's maneuver in the Battle of Ryloth, the Marg Sabl, to the [[Chiss]] Commander [[Mitth'raw'nuruodo|Thrawn]], and explained the origins of the name to him.<ref name="Thrawn: Alliance">''[[Thrawn: Alliances]]''</ref> When Skywalker and Kenobi undertook a [[mission to Utapau|mission]] to [[Utapau]], where they discovered a secret arms deal between the Confederacy and Sugi [[Arms dealer|weapons dealers]], Skywalker briefly forgot Tano had left the Jedi and suggested contacting her, but he cut himself off after remembering her absence and tried to avoid the subject. Kenobi questioned if he wanted to discuss what had happened, and, after they had set up camp, Skywalker admitted he missed Tano and still could not understand how she left. Skywalker still felt that she was a Jedi and belonged with them. Kenobi disagreed with Skywalker's opinion, asserting that it had been Tano's decision to leave, but Skywalker believed that the Jedi Council had abandoned Tano, and therefore left her with no alternative to leaving the Order. Kenobi also felt mistakes had been made, but he still noted that leaving had been her choice and recalled that Tano had allowed her emotions to influence her judgment, which was not the Jedi way. When Kenobi told Skywalker to not take responsibility for her decision, the Jedi Knight asked how his former master would feel if he became a major disappointment, to which Kenobi admitted he would not feel very well about it.<ref name="In Search of the Crystal" /> ====Meeting the Martez sisters==== [[File:Ahsoka meets Trace.png|thumb|left|296x296px|Tano meets Trace Martez on Level 1313 of Coruscant.]] A short time after leaving the Jedi<ref name="Download Gone with a Trace">{{SWYoutube|Kc6TqWz0j64|Clone Wars Download: "Gone with a Trace"|archivedate=20200323162527}}</ref> and close to the end of the war,<ref name="Close to the end of the war note">{{SWKidsYoutube|TcMYF5Sljxw|Bucket List: "The Bad Batch" - Star Wars: The Clone Wars|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20200224180649/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcMYF5Sljxw|archivedate=https://archive.is/ZxaCf}} establishes that the episodes of ''[[The Clone Wars: Season Seven]]'' takes place close to the events of [[Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith|''Star Wars'': Episode III ''Revenge of the Sith'']], which depicts [[Mission to Mustafar|the end]] of the [[Clone Wars]]. Given that "[[Gone with a Trace]]" is part of ''Season Seven'', the events of the episode must take place close to the end of the war.</ref> Tano was traveling in [[The Works]] section of Coruscant aboard a [[Joben T-85 speeder bike]] she had purchased, when the craft began to malfunction. Although she ultimately managed to avoid colliding with a [[Gozanti-class cruiser|''Gozanti''-class cruiser]], she was forced to crash land on the platform of [[Trace's repair shop|a repair shop]] on [[Level 1313]].<ref name="Gone with a Trace">{{TCW|Gone with a Trace}}</ref> This caught the attention of the shop's mechanic, a human female named [[Trace Martez]], who approached Tano as she pulled together the remains of her speeder. After a brief conversation, both girls introduced themselves, with Trace claiming she owned one of the best repair shops on the level. Although she offered to fix the speeder for payment, Tano noted she could not afford to pay and would fit it herself with the necessary tools. After much negotiating, Martez eventually agreed to let Ahsoka fix her bike for free. Opening the doors to her shop, Tano noticed the mechanic's [[Nebula-class freighter|''Nebula''-class freighter]], which Martez was modifying in the hopes of one day leaving Coruscant. After she pointed Tano to a workshop, Ahsoka questioned why the mechanic was helping her, with Martez stating it felt like the right thing to do. Although she offered Tano the option to leave if she wanted, the former Jedi elected to stay.<ref name="Gone with a Trace" /> After Tano had begun to repair her speeder bike, Martez offered to help the former Padawan, but Tano rejected any help that would cost her. Although the mechanic was annoyed by this, noting that everything on 1313 had a price, Tano asked if she had any sparkers she could purchase. Though Martez's only sparkers were already used on her freighter and there was no available stock. Stating that was not good and noting she needed to get out, she did not answer Martez after the mechanic asked if she was running from something. Although Martez called after her, stating she could stay as long as desired as long as she could pay, Tano walked out to the platform and looked up towards the sky of Coruscant.<ref name="Gone with a Trace" /> Afterwards, Tano heard the bike working inside the shop and entered, learning that Martez had helped with it for free. She vaguely admitted to being from Coruscant's upper levels, keeping out the fact that she had been a Jedi, but defended her former order when Martez accused them of starting the Clone Wars. Martez, who felt that the Jedi had forgotten about common people like her, admitted that the Jedi were not what she had imagined based on the stories she had heard, revealing that she wanted to get away from the war and Jedi aboard her starship with her older sister, [[Rafa Martez|Rafa]].<ref name="Gone with a Trace" /> The mechanic's opinion of the Jedi persuaded Tano to<ref name="Download Gone with a Trace" /> continue to<ref name="Gone with a Trace" /> keep her past a secret.<ref name="Download Gone with a Trace" /> [[File:AhsokaNutShot-GWT.png|right|thumb|317x317px|Ahsoka assists Trace in defeating Son-El's thugs.]] Tano and Martez were suddenly interrupted when<ref name="Gone with a Trace" /> low-level<ref name="Pintu databank">{{Databank|pintu|Pintu|archivedate=20200418015031}}</ref> gangster<ref name="Gone with a Trace Episode Guide image 4">{{SW|url=gone-with-a-trace-episode-gallery|text="Gone with a Trace" Episode Gallery|archivedate=20200430113014}} {{C|Slide 4}}</ref> [[Pintu Son-El]] and his<ref name="Gone with a Trace" /> henchmen<ref name="Pintu databank" /> entered, looking for money from Rafa that she had promised him. Martez initially told Tano to stay back and tried to fight Son-El's enforcers off, she was eventually overpowered and asked Tano for help. Having been trained as a Jedi, Tano made short-work of the two enforcers, although Son-El claimed the situation was not over as he fled. Given that she had witnessed Tano's prowess, Martez asked where Tano had learned to fight, so she lied and stated it was her "older brother." The two then made their way to [[Rafa's Laundry]] to tell her about Son-El, where she stated she had a job coming up that would make everything better.<ref name="Gone with a Trace" /> Rafa also asked who Tano was, and, after being introduced to her, Martez recounted how Tano had fallen onto the platform. After a brief conversation between Rafa and the Twi'lek [[Lokann]], whose "[[Lokann's business partner|business partner]]" had arranged a deal with Rafa to build three droids. Tano and Trace worked on the three [[binary loadlifter]]s, with Tano reminding the mechanic to put the [[restraining bolt]] onto the droid. After Tano activated the droid she had been working on, she and Trace began a conversation about how people acted, with Martez mentioning her belief that some people were good, others were bad, and some were cross-wired like the loadlifter she had been building. By saying this, however, Tano realized they had been building [[Type II loadlifter droid]]s and, after her Type II attacked and she shut it down, explained that the "loadlifters" units were actually frauds, being repurposed demolition droid which could cause violence. Unfortunately for the two, Trace had yet to put a restraining bolt on her droid, allowing it to escape from the shop.<ref name="Gone with a Trace" /> After passing Rafa on the street, Tano and Trace pursued the droid before it jumped to a lower street to rampage. As suggested by Trace, Tano ran back to Rafa's laundromat to find the unit's tracking device while she would find a speeder. Once there, Rafa questioned where the loadlifter and Trace were before Tano boarded the speeder the mechanic had found. The two located the droid and chased it, intending to grab the droid with the speeder's clamps and to use the blue off switch on the droid's face plate. After grabbing the type two, however, it began to climb, making Trace release the droid from the clamps and jump onto it herself. Although she managed to shut the unit down, the now lifeless body began to fall with Trace still holding on, forcing Tano to grab hold of it with the speeder's clamps. She quickly attached the vehicle's tow cable to nearby pipes to pull them up, but the droid and Trace proved to be too heavy. Before Trace could fall to her death, however, Tano secretly used the Force to help pull the vehicle up, with only a watching Twi'lek child realizing what she did. Relieved to see Trace safe, the two made their way back to the laundromat, where Rafa refused to take apart the loadlifters despite Tano's protests, believing them hurting anyone was not her problem.<ref name="Gone with a Trace" /> [[File:Tano-and-Trace.png|thumb|left|275px|After leaving the loadlifters with Rafa, Trace Martez and Ahsoka Tano had a meal at the wharf together.]] Ignoring Tano's argument by saying she was new, Rafa promised Trace that she would do the right thing. Tano and Trace made their way to [[the wharf]], where Tano questioned if Trace had a role in making decisions with Rafa. Trace answered that Rafa was trying to make things better for them, although Tano questioned at what cost that came. Rafa then arrived to meet with them, revealing she had charged Lokann double the price, defending herself by saying they were not her property, someone else would have constructed them if they hadn't, and that it would have caused trouble for her and Trace. Although Trace was visibly disappointed, Rafa stated the [[credit]]s had been used to pay off Son-El and gave money for new tools, hoping that would make it worth it. After sending a look at Tano, Rafa left the pair. Tano also started to leave to complete her speeder, and Trace thanked her for saving her life before leaving with the former Padawan.<ref name="Gone with a Trace" /> ====Escape from Oba Diah==== =====A job gone awry===== [[File:Trace-reveals-Silver-Angel.png|thumb|right|275px|Trace reveals the name of the ''Silver Angel''.]] When both of them were working on Trace's freighter in the repair shop, Tano continued to hide her past from the Martez sister by claiming she had gone to "Skywalker Academy." Although the mechanic had never heard of the fake school, she believed it was real, having never truly heard of any academy. When Tano asked why she would never have attended one of the schools, the mechanic noted that there were none where they lived, and that she would not be able to afford it. Trace then stated Rafa and her inherited the hangar the repair shop was in, claiming their parents had "split," and that Rafa had won her store gambling. However, Trace had built her freighter herself, telling Tano its name was the ''[[Silver Angel]]''. Although Tano chuckled at the name, she told Trace she could call her starship whatever name she desired, and secret Force-sensitive returned to work on her speeder bike, which Trace had dubbed "[[Trash]]." After talking about where she would go once the speeder was fixed, Tano accepted Trace's suggestion to stay a for short time longer, as long as Rafa did not mind. At that moment Rafa entered the shop and was told that Tano would be staying. After asking what skills the former Padawan had, Tano stated she only had useful ones.<ref name="Deal No Deal">{{TCW|Deal No Deal}}</ref> Rafa entered to tell her sister that a crew and starship she had hired had backed out of a job. Although Trace was annoyed her sibling had hired a pilot other than herself, Rafa now needed her sister and her freighter. Although Tano asked what the job was, Rafa refused to answer her until they had left, and Trace accepted the task. Rafa reminded her sister that they could not rely on anyone's help, seeing that Trace was beginning to trust Tano. After her sister had entered the ''Silver Angel'', though, Rafa confronted Tano and asked what she was looking for. The former Padawan stated she did not have, as Rafa put it, an "angle," unless maybe to keep the two siblings out of trouble. Rafa and her then entered the ship, but not without the older sibling implying Tano could be the trouble Trace needed to avoid. Now with all three inside the [[cockpit]], the ''Silver Angel'' took off from the underworld portal, but Trace flew the ship into a restricted military lane. The ''Angel'' was soon hailed by [[Anakin Skywalker's flagship|a Star Destroyer]] that had both Skywalker and Yularen,<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> the same admiral Tano had served with,<ref name="Storm Over Ryloth" /> aboard. While the admiral was willing to send a detachment aboard to arrest the ''Angel''<nowiki></nowiki>'s crew,<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> Skywalker and Tano sensed each other,<ref name="Download Deal No Deal">{{SWYoutube|I4_sm9dFyyw|Clone Wars Download: "Deal No Deal"|archivedate=20200330140341}}</ref> so the Jedi Knight elected to let her and the ''Silver Angel'' continue on their way.<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> Now in open space, Tano noted that Rafa had yet to tell her and Trace where they were going. In response, Rafa only told her sister about their destination before they jumped to lightspeed. During their journey, however, Trace had forgotten to disengage the air brakes, making the ''Angel'' rumble, and Trace noted she had never been to hyperspace. Tano then learned that her friend had only ever piloted smaller vehicles meant for use on planets, allowing Rafa to quietly explain why she had wanted a different pilot. Once Tano pointed out the rumbling, Trace remembered to disable the air brakes, and the three finally arrived at the<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> [[Akkadese Maelstrom]], a massive cluster of debris and gas that surrounded<ref name="Solo Guide">''[[Solo: A Star Wars Story The Official Guide]]''</ref> their destination, the Outer Rim world of [[Kessel]]. Realizing they were heading to<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> a planet<ref name="Solo Guide" /> infamous for its corruption, Tano asked Rafa what their job was. Rafa stated they were picking up medicine and tried to calm the former Padawan's worries when they reached the lush section of the planet. The three young women arrived at King [[Yaruba]]'s [[Kessel Castle|palace]], where they were greeted by his [[majordomo]], Kinash Lock. Tano and the sisters were brought to a banquet, but, after learning the medicine was three containers of unrefined [[spice]], the Force-sensitive noted that the substance could be used in illegal products. Lock denied her allegation, claiming their spice was used for medicine during the current time of war and that the [[Yaruba Family of Kessel|Yaruba Family]] had always supported spreading health and joy.<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> [[File:Debate-the-mission.png|thumb|left|275px|Tano tried to argue their mission to deliver spice could be dangerous.]] As they left the palace, Tano tried to argue their mission was dangerous, as pirates often attacked Kessel transport craft, but Rafa believed the ''Angel'' was too small for any raiders to realize what their cargo was. Tano refused to yield, noting that pirates could deduce what they were carrying because they were leaving Kessel, and, to keep her past a secret, claimed she knew this from stories. The Martez sister simply responded that it meant she should have faith in Trace's piloting skills and boarded their freighter. Before Trace could join her sibling, Tano stopped her, telling her that she believed Rafa had wanted a different pilot because of the possible danger, but the pilot felt her sister had faith in her abilities. After Tano learned this was likely Rafa's first time running spice, she asked Trace how her sister could know what they were facing, but the pilot simply felt there was a first time for every task. With this, the two boarded the ''Angel'', and the three young women traveled to the mining zone of Kessel, which more closely resembled the version of the planet Tano was familiar with. As they neared a landing platform, the three looked down to see what Trace initially thought were droids Yaruba had purchased, but Tano quickly realized the laborers toiling below them were slaves. Rafa disagreed, believing the Republic would not allow an operation as large as Kessel's to remain active, but Tano quietly noted that was not what the government would do.<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> Tano joined the Martez sisters on the loading platform before heading back on the ''Angel'' to make sure the spice bins were secured. Before Trace could join her friend, Rafa confided to her sister that she did not know how to feel about their new partner, reminding her younger sister that Tano was not family. Though annoyed by her sister's thoughts on Tano, Trace stated she would keep an eye on her friend before both went aboard. When the ''Angel'' jumped to hyperspace, however, Tano learned they were to deliver the spice to the [[Pyke]] crime lord [[Marg Krim]] on [[Oba Diah]]. Though Rafa questioned how the supposed mechanic knew about the [[Pyke Syndicate]], Tano avoided the question and asserted that they could not make a deal with gangsters, warning Trace that the Pykes would take everything from her and kill her. As the pilot panicked at the thought of losing her starship, Tano, who felt they should take the spice to somewhere that would use it for medicine, debated what to do with their shipment with Rafa, who stated she needed the money to pay debts they owed on Coruscant, though Tano believed these debts had nothing to do with Trace. Determined to keep the ''Silver Angel'' and make sure neither Tano nor Rafa got their way, Trace suddenly dumped the spice containers into hyperspace, to the surprise of both her sister and the former Padawan, who had viewed her debate as an ethical discussion and had yet to figure out a way to settle their deal.<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> [[File:Captured-by-Pykes.png|thumb|right|275px|Tano and the Martez sisters are captured by the Pyke cartel.]] Rafa reprimanded Tano and Trace for their similarities and suggested paying off the Pykes by selling the ''Angel'', but the former Padawan broke up the sisters' argument, reminding them that she had said she'd not figured out a plan "yet." Trace quickly responded by asking if she had one now, which Tano stated they would find out once they acted. She told the sisters to pretend to drop the spice by giving the Pykes empty crates and that they would then flee the planet. Though both Trace and Rafa disliked her idea, neither had a better plan, and Tano also knew she had the Force at her disposal. When the trio [[Escape from Oba Diah|arrived on Oba Diah]], they were greeted by Krim,<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> who had been waiting for them,<ref name="Deal No Deal Episode Gallery">{{SW|url=deal-no-deal-episode-gallery|text="Deal No Deal" Episode Gallery|archiveurl=https://archive.is/3co4f}} {{C|Slide 11}}</ref> his majordomo [[Fife]], and a force of armed [[Pyke guard]]s. The crime lord withheld Rafa's payment, intending to verify they had brought him the spice, but Tano used a mind trick on the Pyke<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> and his entourage,<ref name="Deal No Deal Episode Gallery" /> persuading Krim to give Rafa her credits and let them leave. Unfortunately for them, Fife<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> was not as weak-minded as his peers<ref name="Deal No Deal Episode Gallery" /> and grew suspicious. As Tano prepared the ''Angel''<nowiki></nowiki>'s engines, Rafa avoided giving Fife the bin password by claiming they had already transmitted it. The majordomo was not convinced and, after blasting open the case, saw that the three had tricked them. As the trio tried to escape on the ''Angel'', they were caught in a tractor beam and surrounded by Pyke forces. Seeing that they were trapped, Rafa said she would blame everything on Tano, although Trace noted all three of them had played a part in their current situation.<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> ====Another new path==== After their successful escape from Oba Diah, Tano and the Martez sisters were approached by Lady Bo-Katan Kryze and members of her [[Mandalore resistance]]. Tano recognized Kryze from their battle on Carlac earlier in the war, but she explained Death Watch was disbanded. Tano and her agreed to ally to defeat the rogue Sith Lord [[Maul]], though the former Padawan left her speeder bike with the Martez sisters in case she ever returned to her friends.<ref name="Together Again">{{TCW|Together Again}}</ref> ===Shattered=== ====The last meeting==== {{Quote|You capture Maul. I'll take care of Grievous.

Good luck.|Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano's final words to each other as friends|Old Friends Not Forgotten}} [[File:AhsokaTanoAndBoKatan.png|thumb|left|275px|Tano and Kryze contact Skywalker and Kenobi aboard their Venator.]] After allying herself with the [[Mandalorian]]s, Tano was given a new outfit<ref name="Old Friends">{{TCW|Old Friends Not Forgotten}}</ref> made from [[beskar]]<ref name="OFNF Episode Guide">{{SW|url=series/clone-wars/old-friends-not-forgotten-episode-guide|text="Old Friends Not Forgotten" Episode Guide|archivedate=20200420132041}}</ref> and set to work trying to find where Maul was hiding. After some time, Tano and the Mandalore resistance managed to pinpoint Maul's location on Mandalore with the help of the information Tano managed to retrieve from the Pykes on Oba Diah. Knowing they did not have the numbers for a [[Siege of Mandalore|siege]] of Mandalore, Tano and Kryze contacted Skywalker and Kenobi, who were finishing up a [[Battle of Yerbana|battle]] on the planet [[Yerbana]], for their assistance in the siege. Using the subspace frequency "[[Fulcrum]]," Tano and Kryze were met by Yularen who then contacted Skywalker and Kenobi, calling them back to the ship.<ref name="Old Friends" /> Once Skywalker and Kenobi arrived, Tano greeted Skywalker and commented on how long it had been since they had last seen each other. There was a brief silence before Skywalker asked how Tano had been and where she was. Responding to Skywalker's inquiry, Tano said she was alright, but knew that they did not have time to make irrelevant conversation and needed to divulge the important information she and Kryze had immediately. After Kenobi asked what this information was, Tano explained that they had finally managed to locate Maul and that they might be able to capture him if they moved swiftly.<ref name="Old Friends" /> With this information, Skywalker and Kenobi allowed the Mandalorians onto their Star Destroyer. As Tano exited the boarding ramp, R2-D2 greeted her arrival warmly. After this, she walked towards Skywalker who said he was extremely glad to see her, but she interrupted him and told him that they would have to catch up another time as every moment they wasted there gave Maul more of an opportunity to escape, as noted by Kryze. With this, the group ventured to the strategy center to discuss the supposed siege. Arriving there, Tano explained to Kenobi and Skywalker that they had managed to pinpoint Maul's location using information she had managed to gather on Oba Diah to which Skywalker asked why she was on Oba Diah in the first place. However, Tano waved this aside by telling him that that wasn't really relevant at that present moment.<ref name="Old Friends" /> After Kryze explained that Maul was on Mandalore, Kenobi asked what they wanted from the Republic. Kryze, embarrassed, explained that she didn't have the numbers that would be needed for a siege of this size and needed the assistance of the Republic's clones in order for a complete lockdown of [[Sundari]]. To gain this, she proposed that she would give them Maul once he was captured and that she would take the leadership role on Mandalore once the siege concluded. Nevertheless, Kenobi explained that if they aided them, it would break ancient treaties between the Republic and Mandalorians and that the two sides would once again be drawn into a war. To this, Kryze asked them what one more war was, but Skywalker explained that they didn't want another war when they were already fighting in the Clone Wars. With this, Kenobi explained that he would ask for the Jedi Council's guidance in this matter, but Kryze, desperate for help, yelled at him that there was no time to speak with them and attempted to incite Kenobi's feelings for [[Satine Kryze|Satine]], whom Maul had murdered [[standard month|months]] prior. She scornfully looked at Kenobi as he walked away to speak with the Council, refusing to allow his feelings to control his actions. Kryze then angrily walked away as Tano watched her departure.<ref name="Old Friends" /> [[File:EpGuide209-OldFriendsNotForgotten.png|thumb|right|250px|Skywalker presents Tano with the clones and their newly painted helmets.]] With Kryze gone, Skywalker quipped that that meeting had gone well with everything taken into account. Hearing Skywalker's witty remark, Tano turned back towards Skywalker and said that he and Kenobi hadn't changed much since the last time she had seen them. Skywalker then asked if that was a bad thing to which Tano smiled. He then asked her to follow him as he had a surprise for her waiting in the hangar. As they walked towards the hangar, Tano watched as the clones saluted her as she passed by, commenting that the clones shouldn't salute her anymore since she had left the Jedi Order and therefore no longer commanded them. However, Skywalker explained that they were just showing respect for the years she spent with them serving on the front lines in the Clone Wars. As they arrived, the door moved aside to reveal Rex and his [[332nd Company|company]] with their newly painted [[helmet]]s bearing her markings. Now having seen them, Skywalker motioned her to move through the small crowd of troopers as they had been waiting for her.<ref name="Old Friends" /> After seeing the troopers, Tano walked back to Skywalker and Rex who said that the paint job on the helmets was a little crude, but it was still good to see her again. Before they parted ways once more, Skywalker presented Tano with a box which contained one of her most prized former possessions. However, just as he presented her with the box, the ship's emergency alarm went off, alerting all Republic personnel aboard to get ready for battle. Kenobi rushed in, informing Skywalker and Rex to prepare all forces and that they would be entering hyperspace shortly to help ward off Grievous' [[Battle of Coruscant|surprise attack]] on Coruscant. Kenobi informed Skywalker that the Chancellor was under the protection of [[Shaak Ti]], but that Windu had lost contact with her. Growing annoyed by their political games, Tano asked if her former masters were just going to abandon the Mandalorians. Somewhat shocked by the accusation, Kenobi urged Tano to understand that they were needed at Coruscant as this was a pivotal moment in the Clone Wars. This only annoyed Tano more as she believed that the Jedi were still playing politics, and noted that was why the people of the galaxy had lost faith in them.<ref name="Old Friends" /> Kenobi tried to defend himself that they were needed to defend the [[Coruscanti|people]] of Coruscant, but Tano countered that it was about saving the Supreme Chancellor instead. When Kenobi protested that what Tano was saying wasn't fair, Tano coldly retorted that she wasn't trying to play fair. However, Skywalker offered a compromise where he would divide the 501st into a [[Unidentified Galactic Republic division|new division]] led by Rex who would be promoted to Commander while Tano served as an advisor. Tano accepted her new position and, with Kenobi's approval, the Siege of Mandalore could begin. Before departing, Kenobi advised Tano to capture Maul instead of trying to kill him as he hadn't seemed to stay dead in the past.<ref name="Old Friends" /> [[File:AhsokaNewSabers-OFNF.png|thumb|left|250px|Skywalker presents Tano with her lightsabers in their final meeting as friends.]] Tano then thanked Skywalker for the support as he once again presented her with the box, knowing she'd need its contents if she were going to face Maul. Realizing what was inside, Tano opened the box, revealing her lightsabers as she grabbed them, igniting them and revealing their new blue hue. As she looked at Skywalker, he said they were maybe a little better than when she had had them last. She then briefly practiced with them once more. Beginning to depart, Skywalker looked at Tano and said that with any luck their missions would be over soon and they would be able to reunite once more after their conclusion. She then offered Skywalker good luck as he briefly looked back at her before walking away to prepare to face Grievous. Tano then walked further into the hangar and reunited with Rex.<ref name="Old Friends" /> ====Siege of Mandalore==== =====Air assault===== {{Quote|Sorry. I didn't think to bring you a jetpack.''"<br />"''Don't need one. Race you to the surface!|Rex and Tano during the descent to Sundari|Old Friends Not Forgotten}} [[File:TanoRexKryzeWren-OFNF.png|thumb|right|275px|Kryze contacts Ursa Wren as Tano watches.]] Arriving at Mandalore, Tano boarded a gunship alongside Kryze, Rex, and ARC trooper [[CT-5597]] "Jesse" and joined the assault team in their approach to Sundari. During their approach, Prime Minister Almec contacted them and questioned them on why the Republic was attacking Mandalore, but after Kryze announced her presence to Almec, declaring their knowledge of him being a puppet of Maul, Almec understood. As he informed her that this attack would make her an enemy to the citizens of Sundari, she ended the transmission, noting that she didn't care. Tano turned to address Kryze and commented on how much of a difference there was between her and her sister, Satine. Kryze then contacted [[Ursa Wren]], another one of the Nite Owls, and asked her if she could confirm where Maul was located, but Wren was only able to confirm that he had not yet left the city and also informed them that [[Mandalorian super commando|Maul's forces]] were preparing for combat.<ref name="Old Friends" /> As she ended the transmission with Wren, their gunship began to violently shake as Maul's forces had arrived and had begun their attack. They opened the gunship's doors to see the carnage ensuing outside as a gunship was destroyed next to them, forcing Tano to shield herself from the oncoming debris. Shortly afterwards, everyone aboard their respective gunships left to engage the enemy in the air using their [[jetpack]]s. Rex apologized for not bringing Tano one, however, Tano instead smiled and informed him that she didn't one, declaring a race to the surface between the two.<ref name="Old Friends" /> [[File:AhsokaFlames-OFNF.png|thumb|left|250px|Tano lands in front of the crashing gunship.]] Jumping out of their gunship, Tano ignited both of her lightsabers and landed on another gunship, destroying both of the attacking super commandos' jetpacks with her lightsabers. Noticing more super commandos inside another gunship, she jumped down onto it, destroying one of their jetpacks before jumping inside the gunship and kicking two of the others. She then sliced the [[blaster]]s off two other super commandos before kicking one and pushing another into the side of the gunship with the Force. Before leaving, she kicked one of the last super commandos aboard before destroying the last super commando's jetpack, allowing her to hitch a ride as it sputtered out before landing on a [[Kom'rk-class fighter|''Kom'rk''-class fighter]].<ref name="Old Friends" /> While running across the fighter, Tano noticed a crashing gunship. Landing atop it, she noticed the pilot's ejector seat had failed and needed assistance escaping the gunship. In order to do this, she used her lightsabers to cut the top off of the cockpit, allowing the pilot's ejector seat to launch as the pilot thanked her. Before the gunship crashed, she hitched a short ride as the super commandos on the surface prepared to fire at her. Jumping down onto a platform, the gunship exploded behind her as the super commandos began to fire at her, forcing her to deflect their blaster bolts, allowing her to kill several of them. As she continued to defend herself, Wren and many other Mandalorians arrived alongside Rex. With Rex’s arrival, Tano mentioned that she had beaten him to the surface, reminding Rex that some things never changed. The two friends then rushed into Sundari.<ref name="Old Friends" /> =====The Undercity===== {{Quote|Ahsoka…Tano is it? I can't say yours is a name familiar to me.|Maul, cornering Tano|The Phantom Apprentice}} Shortly afterward, [[Gar Saxon]], one of the leaders of the super commandos, escaped into the [[Undercity]] of Sundari, taking several super commandos along with him. Watching the fighting occurring in the city atop a balcony, Tano watched as Rex returned from his scouting mission and confirmed to them that Maul had not yet been found. With this news, Kryze informed them that she and her Mandalorians would be heading to the [[Sundari Royal Palace]] to capture Almec and ordered her to find Maul as they would not be able to sustain a long siege. After Kryze left, Tano ordered Rex to support Wren at Sundari's [[Sundari shipping docks|docks]] in order to ensure Maul didn't escape. Before he left, Rex informed Tano that if Maul wasn't in Sundari then the entire siege would be playing into his plans. Just then, Clone Captain [[CT-0292]] "Vaughn" contacted Rex, informing him that they had a lead on Maul's location as Tano and Rex rushed off to go investigate the situation.<ref name="Old Friends" /> After being dropped off by a gunship, Tano ventured into the Undercity and was met by Vaughn, who informed her that they had engaged Saxon, but he escaped into an access tunnel, seeming to be in a hurry. Tano asked what was down there and Vaughn told her that it was a series of mainly sewer tunnels and conduit access points, but he didn't know if it led outside of the city. Tano then ordered the clones to move in to investigate where the tunnels led.<ref name="Old Friends" /> [[File:VaughnDies-OFNF.png|right|thumb|right|250px|Vaughn's final moments.]] Unbeknownst to them, they were walking into a trap as another leader of the super commandos, [[Rook Kast]], was prepping her super commandos to ambush Tano and her forces. As they continued to explore, Kast emerged from hiding and fired an explosive at them, forcing Tano to [[Telekinesis|use]] the Force to divert the explosive on an alternate path. However, it still exploded near them, knocking Tano to the ground and briefly disorienting her and her forces. As Tano recovered herself, Vaughn and the rest of the clones chased after Kast and her super commandos, ignoring Tano's cries for them to wait. As Tano followed the trail of bodies, she was led to an opening in the Undercity where Vaughn apologized for his actions, dying while she held his hand.<ref name="Old Friends" /> [[File:ThePhantomApprenticeEG.png|thumb|left|250px|Maul and Tano briefly clash.]] Shortly thereafter, the super commandos rushed in and surrounded Tano who ignited her lightsabers to defend herself as Maul similarly emerged from hiding. Upon his emergence, Maul explained that he had been hoping for Kenobi to show up instead of Tano and asked her why she was here instead.<ref name="Old Friends" /> Tano then looked around at her opponents and readjusted her stand, turning her head back to Maul. Maul proceeded explained that he did not know who Tano was to which she said that she knew who he was. Maul went on to say that he assumed that they both mutually knew several people.<ref name="TPA">{{TCW|The Phantom Apprentice}}</ref> As Maul spoke, Tano pressed a button on her [[wrist comm]], informing Rex that she needed assistance. While Rex traced her signal, Maul explained he was certain Kenobi would've come instead of sending Tano to which she explained that he was needed at the Battle of Coruscant as opposed to fighting Maul. Maul then began to wonder if Sidious' plan was finally coming to fruition, but did not explain as much to Tano. Maul then asked why he sent Tano to which she taunted Maul by asking him to surrender so that they could both go and ask Kenobi themselves. However, Maul explained that that would be pointless as he believed the Jedi and the Republic would soon be toppled by Darth Sidious.<ref name="TPA" /> However, before they could finish talking, Rex and several other clones arrived, attacking two super commandos from behind as Maul ignited his [[Darth Maul's double-bladed lightsaber|lightsaber]] and attacked Tano who just barely managed to defend herself in time. However, after they very briefly fought, Maul declared that it was not time for their true confrontation to take place and pushed Tano back. Before she could recover, Maul picked Rex up with the Force and tossed him into her. Maul, Kast, and one other super commando then escaped to which Tano ordered her men to chase after them as she recovered and chased after him herself. As they split up, Tano chased after what she thought was Maul, but after attempting to take a shortcut, ran into Rex instead, losing Maul. Knowing they had failed, Tano declared that they had lost him.<ref name="TPA" /> =====Conference with Kenobi===== {{Quote|Tell Anakin…''"<br/>"''I will.|Tano and Kenobi's last conversation|The Phantom Apprentice}} [[File:KenobiConferenceCall-TPA.png|thumb|right|250px|Kenobi informs Kryze, Tano, and Rex about what the Jedi Council suspects about Darth Sidious.]] After Maul's escape, Tano met with a [[hologram]] of Kenobi along with Rex in the [[Grand Salon]] of the Sundari Royal Palace while overlooking a hologram of Sundari itself. During their conference, Kryze walked over and informed the group that firefights were still occurring in [[Sector 11]] and congratulated the clones on how effective they had performed in the siege; however, she also noted that Maul still needed to be in custody by the end of it or the entire siege would've been for nothing. With this, Tano noted that while she was in the Undercity, Maul mentioned the name of Darth Sidious to which Kryze asked Kenobi who he was, but Kenobi could share very little information on him, only being able to tell them what the Jedi Council suspected.<ref name="TPA" /> After Rex turned off the [[holo-map]] for Sundari and motioning the astromech droid away, Kenobi informed the group that the council suspected that Sidious was a [[Sith Lord]] who had orchestrated the Clone Wars and had played both sides throughout the entire conflict. He then went on to note that he learned the name from Count Dooku on Geonosis, but any chances of learning more about Sidious from him were severed after Skywalker beheaded him during the Battle of Coruscant, briefly shocking Tano. After this, Kenobi noted that by capturing Maul, they may be able to discover the mystery behind Sidious and put the final pieces of the puzzle into place. With this, Tano asked for more troops, but Kenobi informed her that that would not be possible from his front as he was being sent to [[Battle of Utapau|hunt down]] General Grievous on Utapau. Tano then asked if Skywalker could reinforce them, but, instead, Kenobi asked for Rex and Kryze to leave them while he talked with Tano alone.<ref name="TPA" /> [[File:Kenobi-TPA.png|thumb|left|250px|Kenobi asks Tano to speak to Skywalker.]] With their departure, Kenobi informed Tano that Skywalker had been assigned to spy on Supreme Chancellor Palpatine by the Jedi Council, which Tano found distasteful. When she asked why, Kenobi told her that the [[Galactic Senate]] had allowed Palpatine to stay in [[Office of the Chancellor|office]] far longer than his term allowed, even with the [[Emergency Powers Act|emergency powers]] granted to Palpatine shortly before the beginning of the Clone Wars and that the council was suspicious of Palpatine's true intentions. Tano then noted that Palpatine had been a great friend to Skywalker for a long time and that she did not believe he would be happy with his current assignment. Kenobi affirmed her suspicions and said that it was best for her to talk with him. Tano was displeased with this, believing that Kenobi was asking for her to hold up the Council's judgment in the situation, not believing she was the right person for that role after everything they had put her through. However, Kenobi relented and admitted that the Council wasn't always right in its decisions, which was why he was asking for her help.<ref name="TPA" /> Just then, Rex rushed in, apologizing to both for interrupting them, but telling the two that there had been an attack in the Undercity. Kenobi allowed Tano to go and, as she ran off, she began to ask the Jedi Master to tell Anakin something. Kenobi did not let her finish, simply responding that he would. Tano then rushed off to the Undercity as Kenobi watched.<ref name="TPA" /> =====Interrogating Almec===== {{Quote|Maul had a vision. A dream. The name came to him.''"<br />"''What name?''"<br />"''Skywalker.|Almec reveals the name he had been speaking of|The Phantom Apprentice}} Arriving back in the Undercity, Tano immediately received news that the clones there were ambushed on their way to reinforce [[C-deck]] leading Tano to order Rex to reinforce the location and him to run off to fulfill his orders. After this, Tano walked over to an injured clone named [[Sterling]] who had called her name. He informed her that Maul tore right through their defenses, asking about Tano the entire time. Eventually, Maul realized that Jesse was the oldest clone in the unit present by [[Mind probe (Force power)|looking into his mind]] and had most likely served under Tano for longer, so he took him deeper into the Undercity as a prisoner in order to get as much information from him as possible. With this, Tano looked deeper into the Undercity.<ref name="TPA" /> [[File:AlmecWhispersSkywalker.png|thumb|right|250px|Tano questions Almec on the person he was speaking of.]] Soon after, Tano departed the Undercity and went to the [[royal prison]] alongside Rex and Kryze to interrogate Almec in order to learn more about Maul's plan. Upon entering his cell, Almec sarcastically mentioned how flattered he was upon the three being able to find the time to meet with him. After this, Kryze began the interrogation by asking Almec what Maul's plan was and how he was planning on escaping. In response, Almec informed them that Maul was not attempting to escape as he saw no point in it. Kryze believed this meant that Maul believed he could win, but Almec assured her that that was not the reason as he had become filled with a sense of dread in recent days. Tano then asked him if he had mentioned Sidious to which Almec said he hadn't yet at that point. Continuing the questions, Kryze asked why Almec wanted Kenobi here to which Almec said that he didn't exclusively want Kenobi and that there was another individual Maul wanted as well, however; Almec feigned his forgetting of this person's name.<ref name="TPA" /> With this, Tano asked Kryze to "help" Almec remember and, with this, he became very defensive, but was immediately shot by Gar Saxon, who had infiltrated to prison to assassinate Almec under Maul's orders so that he could not tell them anything. While Kryze ran after Saxon, Tano ordered Rex to get a [[medic]] as Almec informed Tano that Maul had had a vision in which the name had come to him. As Almec slowly died, Tano cried out for him to tell her the name of the individual. With this, Almec slowly breathed out "Skywalker" before dying in Tano's arms. Tano, briefly shocked by this, eventually recovered and rejoined Rex and Kryze—who had lost Saxon in her pursuit of him—in returning to the royal palace.<ref name="TPA" /> =====The final confrontation===== {{Quote|I know Anakin. Your vision is flawed.|Tano, to Maul, refusing to believe his accusations|The Phantom Apprentice}} [[File:MaulOnTheThrone.png|thumb|left|250px|Rex, Tano, and Kryze discover Maul in the throne room.]] After heading back to the palace, Tano, alongside Kryze, Rex, Wren, and several other Mandalorians, stood atop a balcony overlooking one of Sundari's streets where the citizens were being ordered to move to shelter locations by clones to which they received major backlash from the citizens for, not liking to clones present in Sundari. Eventually, Kryze had had enough of this and walked away as Tano and Rex followed close behind. As they entered the palace, Kryze informed Rex and Tano that the citizens of Sundari would not accept a Republic occupation for much longer and that neither would she. As a response, Rex argued that he and his men did not want to remain as a police force within the city with Tano adding that they would leave once Maul was captured and that Kryze would then be granted her opportunity to lead the people. However, as she said this, Maul appeared sitting in the throne of the Grand Salon along with the captured Jesse, whom Maul had managed to retrieve information from regarding Tano using the Force.<ref name="TPA" /> Kryze attempted to attack Maul by pulling out her [[WESTAR-35 blaster pistol]]s and firing several blaster bolts at the Sith Lord before being stopped by Maul who [[Force Stasis|used the Force to hold her in place]]. He briefly held her there before dropping her, leading to Tano and Rex to rush to her aid. Maul then released Jesse back into their care as a show of good faith towards them. As Jesse arrived back with them, Rex asked if he was alright to which Jesse apologized, noting that he had told Maul everything before Tano ordered Rex to get Jesse out of the palace. As Rex left, explosions began to ring outside—having been orchestrated by Maul in a counterattack from the super commandos in order for Tano and him to be left alone—causing Tano to turn her head and Maul to ask that one of them deal with the explosions. Tano asked for Kryze to go, which led Maul to stand up and announce that he and Tano would be fine together. With a final plea from Tano for her to leave, Kryze put her helmet back on and rushed outside to defend her people.<ref name="TPA" /> [[File:TheThroneRoom-TPA.png|thumb|right|250px|Tano and Maul face one another within the throne room.]] Now left alone, Maul began to note how ignorant all combatants outside were, which led to Tano asking why Maul was doing this for either her or the Jedi Council to hear. To this, Maul noted that he specifically wanted to speak with her. With this, Maul mentioned Tano's betrayal by the Jedi Order and asked if this were true to which Tano asserted that she had left voluntarily. Maul acknowledged this but pointed out that her decision was motivated by the Jedi Council's hypocrisy. Him noting this caused Tano to briefly pause before Maul mentioned how he too had been a tool used by another power beyond himself.<ref name="TPA" /> Tano then walked forward and announced that she was there to bring Maul to justice, to which he claimed that justice was just the construct of the current power structure's morals. He also noted that he believed that the current government would soon be toppled, leading Tano to ask if Darth Sidious would be behind what he predicted. Maul then explained that Sidious was behind everything that had recently transpired in the galaxy, always orchestrating events from the shadows, but that would soon reveal himself. Tano then asked for Maul to join her and help the Jedi stop Sidious before he took control over the galaxy. However, Maul knew that the Republic had already fallen and that she just couldn't see this. He went on to explain that the Jedi would not be able to defeat Sidious and that their time had already passed, but that he believed that he and Tano might be able to defeat Sidious if they worked together.<ref name="TPA" /> As explosions continued to ring outside, Maul extended his hand for Tano to join him as she contemplated her decision. As she did this, an explosion shattered the [[glass]] around the pair. Eventually, Tano decided that she would help Maul on the condition that he answer her question on why he wanted Skywalker to come to Mandalore. To this, Maul explained that Skywalker was the key to Sidious' plan, which led Tano to ask if he was the Chosen One, but Maul knew that his role was in fact to destroy the Jedi and that he had long been groomed for his task. Tano then claimed that Maul was lying, but Maul remained firm in his beliefs, claiming that he had orchestrated the current war on Mandalore in order to lure Skywalker and Kenobi there in an effort to kill Skywalker, depriving Sidious of his prized pupil and his main pawn.<ref name="TPA" /> Tano rejected this answer and ignited her lightsabers, ready to fight Maul and take him into custody, claiming that Maul's vision was flawed and that she knew Skywalker well enough to know what he said could never happen. To this, Maul ignited his own weapon and claimed that he needed to teach her one last lesson. Maul then lunged at Tano and the two began their duel.<ref name="TPA" /> [[File:Siege of Mandalore.png|thumb|left|250px|Maul and Tano duel within the royal palace.]] Tano managed to dodge several of his attacks before being forced to parry several of his other attacks. She then saw an opening in Maul's defenses and began to attack him, forcing him back on the defensive. Tano attempted to kick Maul to no avail, leading to him managing to elbow her in the face and forcing her shoto blade to leave her hand. Tano was now on the defensive once more, being forced to fight with only one saber; however, she soon managed to kick Maul, allowing her a brief opening to use the Force and retrieve her blade, forcing Maul to evade the saber as it returned to her hand. The fight then took a brief pause as Tano insulted Maul by claiming that if Skywalker had shown up, Maul wouldn't have lasted long in their fight to which Maul commented that Tano had Kenobi's arrogance before she swung her saber at him, mentioning that she likely had many qualities he disliked.<ref name="TPA" /> Resuming the fight, Tano managed to gain the upper hand but was eventually forced to jump back several times to evade Maul's attacks. Forced in a saber lock, Maul grunted, attempting to disorient Tano, but this gave her the opportunity to kick him outside of one of the palace's windows. Tano briefly paused to catch her breath before chasing after Maul to resume their fight.<ref name="TPA" /> [[File:AhsokaFacesMaul-TCWs7.png|thumb|right|250px|Tano arrives to face Maul one final time.]] As Tano emerged outside, she witnessed Mandalorian reinforcements arrive to aid the clones in warding off the super commandos' attack; however, as she turned her head, she noticed Maul attempting to escape atop a building leading her to chase him to the support beams of the domed city's ceiling. As she reached the support beams, Tano reignited her lightsabers and claimed that Kenobi had been right in his comment that Maul would be hard to kill. As Maul turned to look at her, Tano rushed at him as he reignited his own lightsaber to continue their duel.<ref name="TPA" /> He blocked her oncoming attacks as she lunged at him, briefly forcing her on the defensive before regaining herself and attempting to kick Maul, but he managed to evade. As the fight continued, Tano jumped back on one of the support beams and almost lost her footing, but managed to regain herself before Maul exclaimed that if she had joined him they could have destroyed Sidious together, but Tano knew that this would have only been for Maul to take his place, which she commented in response. As Maul jumped towards her, Tano managed to elbow and kick him to another support beam, causing Maul to briefly be caught off balance. She then once again lunged at him, but was forced off and kicked back, barely managing to hold onto a support beam.<ref name="TPA" /> [[File:OneFinalTime.png|thumb|left|250px|Maul asks Tano to join him one final time.]] Just then, Maul's fighter arrived and asked for him to depart. As Maul shattered the glass on the dome of the city in an attempt to escape, Tano chased after him, jumping up and knocking him off of where he stood. As the two regained their balance once more, their duel continued. However, Maul soon managed to knock one of Tano's lightsabers free from her hand, causing it to tumble down to the fighting below. As she attempted to fight with only one of her sabers, Maul managed to easily disarm her of her second saber. Having gained the upper hand, Maul sliced the support beam the two were standing on, causing it to sag. Tano remained in a fighting position, ready for Maul to attack her once more. As Maul jumped onto her sagging support beam, he gave her one last chance to join him, which she refused leading to Maul continuing his attack, but being stopped when Tano managed to grab hold of his lightsaber and throw him off of the beam. She then stopped him from falling by using the Force as Maul cried out for Tano to let him die.<ref name="TPA" /> As gunships arrived to extract him, Maul wailed in terror of what was to come, claiming they were all going to die before one of the Mandalorians used the whipcord within his vambrace to tie Maul up, allowing Rex to stun him. Rex then told Tano that they would take it from there as Tano caught her breath and looked out at the crack in the dome Maul had created.<ref name="TPA" /> ====Aftermath==== [[File:Maul-Captured.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Tano arrives with the captured Maul.]] As day broke on Mandalore, Tano arrived with the captured Maul to regroup with Kryze. Upon exiting the gunship, Kryze exclaimed her disbelief in Tano's ability to capture Maul, which she noted she was impressed by and handed Tano her lightsabers back. In response, Tano noted that it was what the Jedi Council wanted, with Kryze following that by saying that it was still an impressive achievement due to the fact many had failed to capture Maul in the past. As they continued to walk, Tano noted that this achievement was due to the fact that she had learned from the best the galaxy had, including Kryze. However, Kryze was not flattered as she expressed that she wished she was proficient in something other than combat. With this, Kryze looked out at the ruins the siege had caused, and Tano followed up Kryze's previous statement by saying that the people of Mandalore needed a new type of leader. However, Kryze continued by saying that her sister had tried and failed to be a new type of leader for Mandalore, wondering if she could be any different.<ref name="Shattered">{{TCW|Shattered}}</ref> Before they could continue, Rex approached the two and informed Tano that he had managed to contact the Jedi Council. Leaving Kryze, Tano asked if Skywalker was with them to which Rex noted that he had been when he had left to inform her about the meeting. Before leaving, Kryze turned to Tano and gave her her blessing to leave, telling her that she could handle Maul. With this, Tano left with Rex.<ref name="Shattered" /> [[File:TheSecretMeeting-Shattered.png|thumb|left|250px|Tano attends a secret meeting with the Jedi High Council.]] As Tano and Rex walked into the meeting via hologram, the members of the Jedi Council turned to look at the pair, with Windu noting that her mission had been a success. Tano confirmed this and reaffirmed their belief that she would be escorting Maul back to Coruscant once they departed. With this, Yoda thanked Tano for her service to which Tano said that she was just doing her duty as a citizen of the Republic. Yoda then asked if she did this act instead as a Jedi, but Tano followed this up by informing them that she was not yet ready to be called a Jedi once more. Moving on from this, Tano noted that she wished to speak with Skywalker, but was instead informed that Skywalker had left to inform Palpatine that Grievous had been located on Utapau. Having received an earlier report of Kenobi being sent to Utapau, Tano asked if he was the one who had engaged Grievous to which Yoda confirmed that he had indeed engaged the Separatist forces on the planet. With this, Tano noted that the war could be over soon if Kenobi managed to kill Grievous, but, in response, Windu noted that the war's conclusion depended on if Palpatine decided to end it or not. With Tano questioning what he meant, Windu explained that this was exclusively for the Council to discuss. Tano bowed her head and told Windu that she understood.<ref name="Shattered" /> The briefing was subsequently adjourned, although Yoda remained in contact with Tano after the other Masters ceased their transmission, and asked if she had more to say or if she had a message for Skywalker. However, Tano said that she had neither, neglecting the information she had received from Maul and informing the Grand Master that she would talk to Skywalker herself once he managed to make contact with him. With this, Yoda wished for the Force to be with Tano and cut off his own transmission. With the meeting over, Rex walked over and noted that Tano had neglected to inform them upon the information Maul had mentioned about Skywalker, but Tano waved this aside and simply confirmed that she hadn't. The two then walked out to regroup with Kryze and witness Maul's transport into their [[Nu-class transport|''Nu''-class transport]].<ref name="Shattered" /> [[File:UrsaBoKatanTransportMaul-Shattered.png|thumb|right|250px|Kryze and Wren escort the now imprisoned Maul.]] As they walked out, Kryze, Wren, and several other Mandalorians walked by with the captured Maul contained within an old [[Mandalorian vault]]. Kryze walked up to Tano and the two acknowledged each other with a bow of their heads with Rex leaving Tano to accompany the Mandalorians as they escorted Maul. As the Mandalorians boarded the transport, Tano acknowledged the vault and noted that it was impressive, leading to Kryze mentioning that the vault was from an era when the Mandalorians were at war with the Jedi. With this, Tano jokingly remarked that she thought Kryze's sister, Satine, had outlawed such devices as these while she was duchess of Mandalore, which Kryze said that she had and that this was the last one the Mandalorians possessed. With their conversation finished, Kryze and Tano shook hands and the two said their goodbyes as Tano left to board the transport.<ref name="Shattered" /> Now with Maul in their custody, the transport took off to board [[Unidentified Venator-class Star Destroyer (Mandalore)|one of their Star Destroyers]]. While onboard, Tano and Rex made conversation between one another. Arriving on the Venator, Tano and Rex exited the transport and made their way to the ship's bridge. As Tano and Rex entered the bridge, the [[Republic officer|officers]] present turned and saluted Tano with a smile on their faces. The Star Destroyer soon entered hyperspace as Rex and Tano watched.<ref name="Shattered" /> As Tano looked into the void of hyperspace, Rex asked if something was on her mind, leading Tano to explain that all she had ever been since she was a Padawan had been a soldier, contrary to her training as a peacekeeper. To this, Rex said that all his life he had only been a soldier and that he and his brothers received a mixed feeling about the war because of it, but he knew that without the war, he and his brothers would've never existed. Tano then turned and smiled, telling Rex that the clones' existence was one of the few good things that had come out of the Clone Wars, nothing that the Republic would never have been able to find better soldiers and that it had allowed her to receive her best friend in Rex. The two then saluted one another as an officer walked in to report that a new briefing had come in and, when asked if she would like to join him to look at it, Tano declined, believing it was more good news. Tano then looked back into streaking blue void of hyperspace.<ref name="Shattered" /> ====Order 66==== =====Saving Rex===== {{Quote|How widespread is this?''"<br />"''Ahsoka, it's all of us. The entire Grand Army of the Republic has been ordered to hunt down and kill the Jedi Knights.|Rex explains how widespread the betrayal of the Jedi is|audio=HowWidespread-Shattered.ogg|Shattered}} As Tano stared into hyperspace, she received a [[Force vision|vision]] of [[Duel in Palpatine's office|Windu dueling Palpatine]] within [[Emperor's office|his office]] and Skywalker betraying Windu,<ref name="Shattered" /> but did not fully understand what she was feeling.<ref name="Shattered EG">{{SW|url=series/clone-wars/shattered-episode-guide|text="Shattered" Episode Guide|archivedate=20200504161651}}</ref> With this, Tano rushed into the command center and informed Rex that she believed something terrible had happened to Skywalker. However, instead, the clones [[Skirmish aboard Ahsoka Tano's Star Destroyer|began to turn their blasters towards her]] in accordance with [[Order 66]]. Joining them, Rex asked for them to lower their blasters so that he could kill her himself and raised his own blasters, a tear rolling down his face as he attempted to fight his [[Behavioral modification biochip|inhibitor chip]], an organic brain implant that compelled each clone trooper to comply with the directive.<ref name="Shattered" /> [[File:Order 66 Ahsoka.png|thumb|left|250px|Tano defends herself against the oncoming clone troopers.]] While his whole body shook and a tear rolled down his face, Rex asked for Tano to find Fives before firing upon her. Tano, forced to jump out of the way, ran towards Rex and tackled him, igniting her lightsabers to defend against the other clones' incoming blaster bolts, managing to kill both attacking her. She then closed the blast door as Rex began to stand up, rubbing his head from being forced into the command console. However, Jesse along with several other clones arrived, forcing Tano to divert her attention as everyone of the clones present began to fire upon her. With this, Tano attempted to direct the blaster bolts into the wiring above in an attempt to escape. As she escaped, the clones believed they had managed to kill her, but soon found that Tano had instead escaped into a vent above.<ref name="Shattered" /> Exiting the vents, Tano made her way to the detention level in a bid to free Maul from capture in an attempt to create a diversion for herself. As she arrived, members of the Coruscant Guard were taking aim at Maul, ready to execute him, but she instead used the Force to push one aside and knocked the other one out by throwing him into the ceiling. With this, Tano looked towards Maul and told him not to make her regret her decision before she freed him from captivity. As Maul fell out of the vault, he expressed his surprise that she had survived, but instead of feeling flattered, Tano held her lightsaber to his throat and asked him if he was behind the clone's turning. Maul instead explained that he did not know exactly what had transpired, but instead said that he was sure Tano had felt the voices crying out in pain and death as Jedi across the galaxy were killed,<ref name="Shattered" /> including Tano's former mentor Plo Koon.<ref name="Episode III">[[Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith|''Star Wars'': Episode III ''Revenge of the Sith'']]</ref> Tano then explained that her clones had turned against her and she didn't know why to which Maul began to laugh and say that he had not known what Sidious' had been playing, but that he now did—the Grand Army of the Republic had turned against the Jedi Order.<ref name="Shattered" /> He then stood up and said that Tano had done the right thing in seeking his help and asked her to follow his lead, but Tano instead held her lightsaber up to him once more and made clear that she just wanted to use him as a diversion and not as a partner. With this, Tano ordered Maul to go cause some chaos as Maul looked at her with hatred displayed on his face. As the two walked out of the cell, Maul asked for one of Tano's lightsabers so that he might be granted a fighting chance, but Tano declined his offer and commanded him to leave once more. Now having freed Maul, Tano made her way to the droid storage room to recruit help from the droids located there.<ref name="Shattered" /> [[File:TeamAhsokaDroids-Shattered.png|thumb|right|250px|The droids pledge their allegiance to Tano.]] As clones ran by, Tano snuck her way through the Venator, eventually arriving at her destination. Once Tano arrived in the droid storage room, she reactivated her old astromech droid R7-A7 who was ecstatic to see her, but Tano told him to quiet down as she required his help. R7 began to beep profusely, but Tano continued to attempt to quiet him down as the other two droids [[CH-33P]] and [[RG-G1]] activated. As they activated, the droids began to profusely ask Tano questions upon what was happening, but Tano couldn't give them answers as she didn't know herself; however, she asked them for their help in discovering why. With this, the droids pledged their allegiance to her as Tano ordered them to get started.<ref name="Shattered" /> With all of them in agreement, Tano ordered R7 to patch into the central computer and search for any secure file in relation to CT-5555 as asked of her by Rex. As R7 searched, he discovered files in relation to [[Battle of Ringo Vinda|an incident]] that occurred aboard a [[Ringo Vinda space station|space station]] above [[Ringo Vinda]] between [[CT-5385]] "Tup" and Jedi Master [[Tiplee]] as well as a report from [[Kaminoan]] doctor [[Nala Se]] that said that Fives had had a malfunction with his inhibitor chip. She went on to mention a grievance report filed by Rex, which Tano asked R7 to open for her, but soon discovered that it was sealed. In order to open it, Tano tried Skywalker's passcode of 8108, which managed to open the file. Upon opening the file, Rex said that the inhibitor chips within the clones' brains could possibly have an alternative purpose they did not yet know. With this new information, Tano took the droids in an attempt to capture Rex and remove his inhibitor chip.<ref name="Shattered" /> [[File:AhsokaDistractsRex-Shattered.png|thumb|left|250px|Tano begs Rex to allow her to remove his inhibitor chip.]] As Rex rushed across a hallway, R7 and CH-33P stopped him, sealing the blast doors between him and the other clones to leave him and Tano alone. With Rex trapped, R7 displayed a hologram of Tano, informing Rex that she believes she knew why he turned against her and that she saw his report on Fives. On top of this, she informed him that he had been programmed to turn against her and that his mind had been altered by the inhibitor chip, continuing by saying that she could help him. As Rex took aim at R7 and asked where Tano was, she appeared behind him, with R7 electrocuting him in order to bring him to the medical bay. As Rex fell to the ground, Tano asked the droids to be careful as they had not been trying to hurt Rex. As clones began to yell from outside the blast doors, Tano asked CH-33P if all the doors were sealed between them and the medical bay, which he confirmed. With this, Tano lifted Rex and placed him on top of the combined effort of R7, G-G, and CH-33P, all of them carrying him to the medical bay together. As the clones broke through the blast doors, Tano sealed even more doors to cover their escape.<ref name="Shattered" /> Reaching the medical bay, Tano placed Rex on the medical bed. With Rex in position, Tano ordered R7 to run a scan for the inhibitor chip within Rex's brain; however, the initial scans came up empty prompting Tano to ask the [[FX-7 medical assistant droid|medical droid]] to check again. As they scanned once more, CH-33P alerted Tano that the clones had begun to hack into the door and, with this, Tano ordered G-G to reseal the door as fast as possible if the clones managed to break through. Tano then asked R7 once more if anything had come up in the scans, but nothing had yet been located.<ref name="Shattered" /> [[File:RexAnguished-Shattered.png|thumb|right|250px|Rex reawakens from his surgery.]] With this news, Tano walked over to Rex and put her hands around his head, beginning to chant "I am one with the Force and the Force is with me." Continuing to chant, the unconscious Rex began to join in as the inhibitor chip was finally located. With its location finally having been discovered, Tano ordered R7 to remove the inhibitor chip to which R7 originally objected by asking if it would work, but Tano didn't know, only clarifying that if it didn't, the four of them were dead anyway. While they attempted to remove the inhibitor chip, the clones finally broke through the door, and Tano, in an effort to ward them off, reignited her lightsabers. As the clones began to fire upon Tano, she deflected their blaster bolts and used the Force to throw several of them while CH-33P attempted to reseal the door. As the clones began to overwhelm Tano, Rex woke up from his surgery and used his blasters to kill several clones as CH-33P finally resealed the door.<ref name="Shattered" /> Now with Rex awake, Tano asked if he was alright to which Rex assured her that he was. He then apologized for turning against and almost killing her earlier. With that, Tano asked how widespread the inhibitor chips were and how many Jedi were currently being betrayed across the galaxy to which Rex left her with the crushing news that the entire Grand Army of the Republic had betrayed their Jedi and had been ordered to hunt down and kill the remaining ones. However, soon after, the clones began to cut through the door again as Tano and Rex turned to watch.<ref name="Shattered" /> =====Escaping the Venator===== [[File:TanoAndRexMedBay.png|thumb|left|250px|Tano and Rex stand to face their former allies.]] With Rex now awake and on Tano's side, the two friends were ready to escape the Venator. Standing in front of the entrance as clones attempted to break through, Rex asked how Tano was planning on getting them out of the medical bay to which she informed him that she had an idea. As Rex asked what her idea was, Tano instead asked Rex to set his blasters to stun as they were not attempting to kill any of them. As the clones continued cutting through the door, Rex informed Tano that they had almost finished cutting through, but Tano still told him to wait. As they finished cutting through, Tano used the Force to push the door out and knock several clones aside, making their escape easier. Briefly stunned, the three remaining troopers were easily knocked out by Rex; however, several more clones appeared from both sides as Tano rushed out of the med bay, lightsabers ignited, blocking each of their shots while Rex stunned all clones standing in their way. As they fought the oncoming clones, Tano ordered R7 to find them a path off of the Star Destroyer. While doing so, R7 managed to close the blast doors around them, sealing off several oncoming troopers, allowing Rex and Tano to mop up the few remaining troopers. Now at a pause in the action, R7 informed Tano that all of the escape pods had been destroyed, leading Tano to conclude that taking a shuttle would be their best bet to escape. With this, Tano began to leave, but while she walked away Rex informed her that Maul had escaped his imprisonment, but Tano, having let him out herself, informed Rex upon this fact, to his surprise. He began to question her on why she would do such a thing, but she simply said that it was for a diversion as Tano began to rush for the hangar, asking Rex to hurry.<ref name="Victory and Death">{{TCW|Victory and Death}}</ref> As they continued to run towards the hangar, the ship jolted as it exited hyperspace, having been stopped by Maul who had destroyed the hyperdrive using the Force, crippling it and causing it to be caught in the gravitational pull of [[Unidentified moon (Ahsoka Tano)|a nearby moon]]. Finally arriving at the hangar's control center, Rex was the first to enter, stunning an unsuspecting officer shortly before Tano rushed in and used the Force to push one aside as Rex stunned the other two. As they reached the controls, Rex informed Tano that the clones had already locked everything down and that if they weren't trying to kill them, he would've been proud. As Rex said this, Tano ordered R7 to unlock the doors in [[Bay 12]], CH-33P to prep the shuttle, and G-G to find out what had happened to the ship that had caused it to jolt. As G-G attempted to discover what happened, he informed the pair that the hyperdrive had been completely destroyed to Rex's disbelief. The two soon discovered that they had become entrenched in the gravitational field of a moon nearby. With this, Tano asked R7 to open the main hangar ,doors and, with that, they saw the oncoming moon, causing Tano to exclaim that they needed to get out of there. As the ship continued to jolt profusely, Rex asked about the status of the hangar doors as Tano asked about the shuttle. With that, R7 managed to open one of the hangar doors, revealing a shuttle for them; however, as R7 continued to open the rest of the hangar doors, it revealed an army of clone troopers, led by Jesse, waiting for them.<ref name="Victory and Death" /> ======Fight in the hangar====== [[File:AhsokaDivision-VaD.png|thumb|right|250px|Jesse leads an army of clones in an attempt to eliminate Rex and Tano.]] As the clones took their positions in the hangar, Rex quickly asked what they were going to do, but Tano admitted that there were too many clones standing in their path to make a break for the shuttle and that they didn't want to hurt any of them, leading Rex to tell her that they didn't care what she wanted. Continuing on, Rex told her that the Star Destroyer was going down and that all of the clones aboard were willing to die in order to kill them both. With that, Tano walked over to Rex and removed his helmet, revealing his distraught state. With this, Tano explained that Rex was a good soldier, but that every one of the clones trying to kill was too. Tano continued to state that they may be willing to die, but she wasn't willing to be the one to kill them, leading Rex to believe that she was admitting defeat. Tano declined this, however, to Rex's puzzlement as he didn't see any other way besides killing them in a bid to escape. Tano then walked over to the viewport to see the army of clone troopers standing before them and informed him that she had an idea. As Rex began to look slightly puzzled, Tano handed him back his helmet and assured him that she thought it was a good idea. She then knelt down and asked the droids if she could count on them to which all three of them agreed that she could. With their acknowledgement, she stood up and informed her four allies that she would explain her plan on the way to the hangar. As they approached the hangar, Tano explained that Rex would feign her capture to the clones as a distraction, while the droids snuck past them and activated the lifts beneath clones' feet. Before they arrived, Rex took Tano's lightsabers to make their ruse seem more plausible.<ref name="Victory and Death" /> As Rex and Tano reached the hangar, Rex asked for the clones to hold their fire as he escorted a supposedly captured Tano with her arms on her head. As the clones prepared to fire on Tano, Rex once again asked them to hold their fire as Jesse told him that he had his orders to execute Tano and asked him to eliminate her or else he would do it himself. As the clones continued to aim their blasters upon Tano, Rex explained that the order had been to eliminate the Jedi for treason and that since Tano was no longer a Jedi, she should not be considered a traitor under the directive. This caused Jesse to briefly pause before he informed Rex that he himself had informed the clones that they were under special orders from Darth Sidious to eliminate Tano, even though she was no longer considered a Jedi, as well as any clone who disobeyed the directive. As Jesse spoke, Tano turned to look at the droids who informed her that they needed a little more time, leading Tano to tell Rex to keep the clones talking for a little longer. Responding to what Jesse said, Rex said that he and Jesse had known one other for a long time and that if they didn't get this right, they would be the ones committing treason. After taking another moment to process this, Jesse readjusted his stance and stripped Rex of his title of commander, accusing him of treason towards the Galactic Republic. However, the droids turned towards Tano again and signaled that they had completed their task prompting Tano to ask Rex if he was ready, which he responded to by saying that he hadn't much liked being a commander anyway. As Jesse signaled for the clones to fire upon Rex and Tano, Tano's plan came to fruition as the lifts beneath the clones began to drop. With that, Tano pushed Jesse down the shaft with the Force and was thrown back her lightsabers by Rex.<ref name="Victory and Death" /> [[File:MaulAttemptsToEscape.png|thumb|left|250px|Tano attempts to stop Maul from escaping.]] Now wielding her lightsabers once more, Tano, alongside Rex, easily managed to incapacitate the remaining clone troopers. However, as they fought the remaining clones, Maul appeared inside the hangar, also attempting to escape the crashing Star Destroyer. As Rex and Tano continued to fight the remaining clones, Maul ran past them, and, noticing Maul running past them thanks to G-G, Tano notified Rex. Finding the remaining clones insignificant, Tano chased after Maul and allowed Rex to deal with the rest of them as he followed her. As she arrived to stop Maul, he threw several crates at her with the Force, telling her that she had wanted this chaos and threw a cart at her as she jumped to avoid it. Finally arriving to attack Maul, Tano slashed at Maul before he used the Force in a powerful push, knocking her all the way back to the lifts; however, before she could fall into the starship bay below, G-G managed to use one of his cables to help her back up. As G-G helped Tano up, the clones began to regain consciousness, forcing Tano to use one of her lightsabers to defend against the incoming blaster bolts. As she defended herself, Rex did all he could to assist her, stunning as many clones as he could using his blasters. However, Tano began to lose the fight as the blaster bolts began to hit her beskar-plated armor. The clones, realizing the droids were at fault, began to fire upon them, forcing CH-33P and G-G to move back. However, as this occurred, Maul stole the shuttle and began to use it to escape the Venator. Finally managing to fully climb up, Tano ran towards the shuttle and used the Force in an attempt to stop Maul from escaping. As she did this, Maul increased power to the thrusters, causing her to begin sliding across the floor of the hangar and forcing Rex to grab her hand to stop her from slipping away. However, reinforcements began to arrive in the hangar, which Rex noted to Tano, who was still attempting to hold Maul back. Being forced to divert his attention, Rex was forced to let go and defend her from the oncoming clones. Tano continued to strain and witnessed as R7 was killed by one of the clones' stray blaster bolts. However, seeing that Rex was beginning to become overwhelmed by the clones, Tano was forced to let go of the shuttle and allow Maul to escape. Tano then rushed back into battle alongside Rex.<ref name="Victory and Death" /> Being forced to defend herself from all sides, Tano saw that they were vastly outnumbered and threw her lightsabers into the ground, using the Force to cut a hole through it in order to escape into the starship bay below. However, they were once again met by the fully conscious clones ready to fight them once again. As Jesse ordered for the clones to attack, Tano was once again forced to defend herself. Luckily, from above, CH-33P and G-G managed to manipulate the lifts once more, forcing many clones back up into the main hangar. However, the two droids' efforts did not go unnoticed and the two were promptly executed by the clones. Finishing off the remaining troopers, Rex and Tano began to look around the starship bay for another ship to escape with, coming up with nothing as most ships located there were under maintenance. Eventually, Tano managed to find a Y-wing starfighter, but, before they could reach it, they were once again attacked by the clones. In an attempt to reach the shuttle, Tano jumped across one of the lifts and used the Force to push Rex onto the Y-wing. However, with many more clones arriving on the lifts, Tano was forced to use the Force to push them all aside, but still began to become overwhelmed. Concurrently, the Star Destroyer began to break apart and lost all artificial gravity onboard, causing everything on the ship to begin falling towards the moon's surface. This forced Tano to use her lightsabers in an attempt to stop herself from falling. As she did this, Rex asked her to hurry up and rush to the Y-wing, leading Tano to muster enough energy to run across the surface of the hangar and attempted to jump onto the Y-wing, but fell the into open air as the Y-wing fell out of the hangar. Tano began to fly through the open air as Rex searched for her within the Y-wing, eventually spotting her and opening the gunner's hatch for her to climb inside. Tano attempted to use the air around her to reach the Y-wing, but, as she grabbed hold, she lost her grip and flew away. Tano was now forced to use the debris to her advantage and ran across one of the destroyed engines in an attempt to regroup with Rex. With one final jump, Tano was forced to use the Force to pull herself closer to the gunner's seat, finally being able to grab hold and climb into the hatch. Having finally rescued her, Rex flew the Y-wing away. As the Y-wing flew away, Tano contemplated all that had recently occurred.<ref name="Victory and Death" /> [[File:AhsokaGraveyard-VaD.png|thumb|right|250px|Tano stands over the graves of her former comrades-in-arms.]] Rex later landed the Y-wing near the Star Destroyer's crash site and the two erected graves for each of the fallen clones that they could find as well as scavenging the remains of R7. Upon completion of the burial site, Tano stood over the fallen clones, taking out her lightsabers and looking at one of them one final time before leaving both behind in an attempt to make it appear as if she too had perished in the crash.<ref name="Victory and Death" /> Now fugitives and enemies of the Republic, Tano and Rex were forced to go into hiding,<ref name="Victory and Death" /> eventually going their separate ways.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Years later,<ref name="VADEG">{{SW|url=series/clone-wars/victory-and-death-episode-guide|text="Victory and Death" Episode Guide|archivedate=20200508165613}}</ref> one of the lightsabers she left behind was discovered and taken by Darth Vader.<ref name="Victory and Death" /> Neither Tano nor Rex was aware that this Sith Lord was in fact Tano's former master, Anakin Skywalker, who had turned to the dark side of the Force and massacred the entire Jedi Temple under the new name of "Darth Vader."<ref name="Episode III" /> 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 amongst the priority targets of presumed survivors of the purge.<ref name="Dying Light I">[[Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith 7|''Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith'' 7]]</ref> ===Age of the Empire=== ====Life on Thabeska==== {{Quote|We all look like each other, everyone in my family. Our long hair and our brown skin. People don't try to tell us apart, and we fool them. It helped us avoid the shadow, and it keeps us safe from the law. I wish you looked like us, too.|Hedala Fardi, to Ahsoka Tano|Ahsoka (novel)}} Ahsoka Tano fled into the [[Outer Rim Territories|Outer Rim]], intent on hiding from the Empire. Eventually, she found the planet [[Thabeska]], a planet that dealt largely in small-scale water and technology trading, and one with a relatively small and unorganized population located far away from major [[hyperspace route]]s. Believing the rural world to be of little interest to the Empire, and a steady stream of newcomers would allow herself to blend into the quiet world, Tano made landing on Thabeska. However, the refugee did not account for the presence of the local [[Fardi clan]], an influential family that either touched or ran most of Thabeska's businesses, including their own smuggling operations, though the family fronted such with several legal businesses.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> [[File:FFG-Ahsoka-green-lightsabers.jpg|thumb|right|220px|Ahsoka Tano, Jedi refugee]] Upon arrival, Tano, who took the name "Ashla," was greeted by several young girls. They showed her where she could find food and a place to stay, and introduced her to [[Fardi]], who bought Ashla's ship for what she thought was a nearly decent price. Nevertheless, Fardi did not inquire the reason for Ashla's arrival at the dawn of the Empire, and the girls, who Ashla realized to be Fardi's daughters and nieces, took the Togruta arrival under their wing. Followed ceaselessly by the young Fardi sisters, Ashla soon found herself working for the Fardi family once they learned that she was a good mechanic, and the refugee was given her own room in the Fardi compound and paid fair amounts of money for her work. Ashla had secured her place in the Fardi clan, becoming a friend amongst the Fardi girls.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Two months before [[Empire Day]], the first anniversary of [[Galactic Emperor|Emperor]] Palpatine's rise to power, Ahsoka Tano was working on some droids in the shipyard on Thabeska when she noticed some of the Fardi children playing by a stack of crates. As Tano observed, the crates began to fall onto the children who cried out of fear, forcing Tano to save the Fardis by levitating the crates through the Force. Tano had kept her Jedi powers a secret since leaving Mandalore, and feared that she had revealed herself to the young Fardis. Ashla reminded them that they should not have been playing near the crates, and they begged her not to tell Fardi, giving up their sweets—their only form of currency—and ignoring the supernatural incident they had just witnessed. Only [[Hedala Fardi]], the youngest of her family, looked at Ashla with fascination. Sometime later, the Togruta outlander discovered that Hedala Fardi was [[Force-sensitive]], as the Fardi youngling lifted several small stones with subtle hand gestures before the eyes of Ahsoka Tano.<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.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> [[File:Boo Boo farm.jpg|thumb|left|224px|Empire Day marked the execution of Order 66 and the loss of many of Ahsoka Tano's friends.]] 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 through the city streets for the landing field.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> After numerous run-ins with Imperial stormtroopers, Ahsoka Tano was forced to steal one of Fardi's ships, 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===== 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 an abandoned home formerly owned by [[Cietra]]. 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]] and [[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 initially 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]]. When they inquired about Ahsoka's knowledge regarding their new situation, Tano decided not to reveal her past yet.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> =====Stockpiling supplies===== {{Quote|Why aren't you at work?''"<br/>"''I am at work. I mean, I'm not a farmer. I fix the equipment when it's broken, see?|A stormtrooper questions Tano|Ahsoka (novel)}} The following morning, Tano was visited by a pair of stormtroopers who asked why she was working. Tano informed them that her job was fixing broken machines, and so one of them asked for her information, saying that she may be reassigned to field if they deem it necessary. Wishing to maintain the freedom she had under her job repairing machines, Tano used a mind trick to convince the stormtroopers that her work was important for food production and they did not need to reassign her. With the pair in agreement with her, she asked if there was anything else she could help with and one reminded her of the new rules posted around the settlement. Tano closed the door on them and accumulated her rations to take to the caves. Being cautious of any surveillance that could be watching her, she made her way to the caves and hid the rations.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Wishing to move her freighter from the spaceport before the Empire locked it down, Tano scouted a place to hide it, discovering a gully where the starship could fit. She then headed to the spaceport to retrieve the freighter. There, an [[Imperial officer]] took list of the starships in the port. He asked Tano of her purpose there, to which she told him that she wished to move her ship. The officer tried to assure her that the local garrison would keep it safe, but she then began mocking the security, making her way past the haggled officer before he could continue to dispute.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Tano proceeded to the pilot's seat of the freighter and prepared for takeoff. The Imperial officer reattempted to argue but was muffled out by the engines as she flew the ship away. Tano flew her freighter the opposite way to the gully, taking it the long way around Raada to cover her tracks. Although she briefly considered abandoning the moon forever to run from the Empire, she chose to continue instead and hid her ship in the gully with its nose positioned upwards towards the sky to ensure a swift take off.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> =====Sowing seeds of rebellion===== {{Quote|I've seen them bringing in their own seed. Whatever we're planting, it won't be something we get to keep or sell.''"<br/>"''They'll buy off the overseers. They'll give them enough money to go off-world, and then work the rest of us to the bone. I've seen things like this before.|Miara and Tano discuss the Empire's intentions on Raada|Ahsoka (novel)}} Later, Tano met up with Kaeden, Miara, and number of other farmers at Selda's cantina. Neera informed Tano that Malat and her [[Malat's husband|husband]] had already found work on<ref name="Ahsoka" /> the planet<ref name="Battlefront">''[[Battlefront: Twilight Company]]''</ref> [[Sullust]]. Tano lied that her freighter had been stolen when Kaeden asked why she had not also decided to leave Raada. She and Miara then discussed the capabilities of the security lock the latter had created for her, with Vartan asking about making bigger charges. As Tano shut this down, Hoban argued that explosives would get rid of the Empire, to which the Togruta claimed would provoke reinforcements from the Empire, insisting that surviving with the Empire was a better strategy.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Tano then learned from Kaeden and Miara that the overseers were adding two hours to the farmers' shifts, with the Empire was planning on speeding up the crops and bringing their own seeds in. In this time, a number of uniformed Imperials entered the cantina. Tano then tabled the idea that the Empire was going to buy off the overseers and overwork the farmers, brushing off Neera's inquiry into her past. Hoban insisted in blowing up Imperials, but as Tano began arguing with him, a drunken Tibbola got into a scuffle with an Imperial officer. The Imperial officer overpowered Tibbola and let a stormtrooper shoot the farmer dead.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> After Vartan, Hoban and Neera left, Tano watched Kaeden play crokin and suggested that the safest way to hurt the Empire on Raada was for the farmers to begin working slower to slow the growth of their crops . Before Kaeden and Miara departed, Tano told them to relay the suggestion to Vartan, who presumably knew how to slow crop growth. Tano briefly spoke to Selda, who deduced that she had seen deaths like Tibbola's before and told her to be careful. The bartender then gave her some leftover food. Tano quickly walked home after.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> =====Building a resistance===== {{Quote|By the time we harvest, the fields will be useless dirt. Nothing will grow for seasons and it's not like they're going to pay us anything we can use to buy fertilizer with. The whole moon will be ruined.''"<br/>"''Are there other fields?''"<br/>"''No. The whole of Raada is nearly useless to begin with.|Vartan and Tano discuss the Empire's artificial crop|Ahsoka (novel)}} 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 growth of crops, thanks to the farmers, the new Imperial overseers 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.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> In a conversation about the artificial crops, Tano convinced Vartan to lend her Miara and Kaeden, whom she recruited for assembling bombs that were to be used to attack Imperial forces. Tano showed Kaeden her caves on a map and later handed the farmer and Miara food at those same caves. The sisters became questioned Tano's intentions in stockpiling at the caves so early on, but Tano dismissed it as habits and directed the conversation towards Kaeden and Miara's parents. Over the next several days, Vartan recruited forty farmers including Hoban into a [[Raada resistance|resistance movement]] for Tano. He briefed the Togruta on the matter at Selda's cantina, displaying how the recruits were organized into crews. Before leaving, Tano told him that she would brief the farmers the next day and departed the cantina.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> =====Sabotage mission===== {{Quote|I want to see the patrol a couple times. This might be our only chance to break in here this easily, and we should take advantage of this.|Tano, to her colleagues|Ahsoka (novel)}} Later, Tano led a mission to plant the corrosive charges on the Imperial walkers stored at the Raadian shipyard. For the mission she chose Miara, Neera and the [[Rodian]] [[Kolvin]] to accompany her; Miara to help set the charges, Neera for her swift thinking, and Kolvin for his nimbleness. Due to the weak stormtrooper security, Tano and her team infiltrated the spaceport easily. While planting charges, Tano took her time to observe the patrols, feeling that they would not be able to infiltrate the compound as easily after. After observing a couple patrol cycles passed, Neera advised the Togruta that it was time to leave.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Tano branched from the group with Miara to continue setting charges, and the Togruta was reminded of her time on Onderon during the Clone Wars. During their work, she also discovered that Miara had smuggled a real bomb, asking the girl of it. Miara tried to dismiss this as an accident, but the Togruta pressed her inquiry, asking if her companion had been plotting behind her back. The pair were briefly interrupted when another patrol passed, this time scanning the compound for a moment. After they passed, Tano and Miara continued their mission and soon reunited with Neera and Kolvin.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> 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 to evade any arresting that could ensue. 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===== {{Quote|What are you going to do Ashla?''"<br/>"''I'm going to the front. The fighting is the thickest there, but I might be able to help out long enough for our people to retreat.|Miara Larte and Tano|Ahsoka (novel)}} Tano ran through the streets with Miara and Neera towards the Imperial admin building when the alarms sounded from the Imperial compound, where the damage to the walkers had been discovered. As they continued to the compound, an explosion sounded and Miara denied that it was one of her bombs. When Tano told her two comrades to reveal the real plan, Neera revealed that Hoban had split the resistance fighters into three groups and that they were armed with explosives and blasters.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> 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 when Miara asked again where she had come from. After separating from Miara, Tano and Neera headed to the Imperial compound, where Hoban's ill-equipped 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.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> While Neera rounded up the surviving farmers, Tano planted explosives behind the Imperial tanks. These explosives immobilized the vehicles, halting the Imperial advance. Tano then took the opportunity to lead the five survivors to safety, knocking a stormtrooper to the ground and stealing the soldier's blaster. While fleeing the fighting, Tano and the farmers were blocked by a row of stormtroopers. Hoban surrendered but was gunned down by the troopers. Before these stormtroopers could execute the remaining survivors, though, Tano used the Force to fling the stormtroopers' blasters to the ground. Tano and the Raadian farmers then fled to the caves, with the former using the force to deflect artillery.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> =====A resistance in hiding===== {{Quote|I saw his face when he talked about you, the Imperial commander. Ahsoka, he wants you dead just to see you die, and he's not going to be nice about it. You have to take your ship and leave. Now.''"<br/>"''I'll come back for you. I promise.|Kaeden and Tano|Ahsoka (novel)}} After arriving in the caves, the resistance fighters turned to Tano and Kaeden told her that she had some explaining to do. With Neera being sedated to prevent her from harming herself, the farmers took some time to be quiet before Tano decided to reveal her identity as a former Jedi apprentice. Kaeden was angry with Tano for not revealing her Jedi identity since she could have saved Hoban's life and stormed off before the togruta could continue explaining herself. Having been discovered by the Empire, 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 with Neera while she went to find Kaeden, knowing that the Imperials would catch her.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Meanwhile, Kaeden returned to her home only to be captured by a stormtrooper patrol. Despite being tortured, the farmer refused to reveal Tano's name and the location of her fellow rebels. Tano, though, managed to infiltrate the Imperial admin building to retrieve Kaeden from her cell. Using one of Miara's corrosive explosives, the Togruta infiltrated the cell and carried the drugged farmer out of the high window using the Force, who told Tano that the Imperials wanted her very badly in a moment of consciousness. After escaping to the outskirts, Kaeden told Tano that the Imperial commander had taken an interest in her and advised her to leave offworld, thanking the Jedi for helping them. Tano promised that she would return, parting from the farmer shortly after.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> ====Return to the Fardis==== =====Reestablishing work===== {{Quote|Back, I see. Are you returning my property?''"<br/>"''I think I'll keep it a little longer, if that's alright. If you have anything that needs fixing, though, I'd be happy to help you out again.''"<br/>"''There's always room for a good mechanic. Or even a competent one like you.|Fardi and Tano|Ahsoka (novel)}} Tano's presence on Raada drew the attention of both the Galactic Empire and Senator [[Bail Organa]], an old friend of the Jedi. While the Empire dispatched the [[Inquisitorius|Inquisitor]] [[Sixth Brother]] to Raada to draw the Jedi out of hiding, Senator 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 Outer Rim 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. Before the togruta could ask about this, though, the Fardi cousins gathered around her, expressing their joy of her safety. Tano then allowed the cousins to each hug her, and when she parted with them, the Jedi told Hedala that the girl would need to tell her about the "shadow" but no one else.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> 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, adding that the people had gone into hiding when the sisters asked why she could not help them. Tano also remarked that it was difficult for her to hide since she stood out as a Togruta.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> =====Duties===== {{Quote|Hedala, I need you to tell me about the shadow. Anything you can remember about it. Can you do that?''"<br/>"''Yes. I never saw it, but I knew that it was here, in the city.|Tano and Hedala Fardi|Ahsoka (novel)}} 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 individual 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 before redeploying to Raada. Tano complimented Hedala for staying out of the "shadow"'s way and told her not to mention the individual to her sisters. Tano then took a moment to think about that the "shadow could really be and considered her options once again, deciding 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, who was surprised upon this and had her prove her flying skills. Fardi then 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 picked up a distress call from an escape pod. After rescuing the occupants of the pod, Tano was informed that their shuttle had been attacked by pirates, who had taken several hostages. The occupants, all 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 and she agreed to help the humans and rescued their companions from the pirates.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> =====Final departure===== {{Quote|As it is, I think you'll have to leave, and we'll have to go straight for a while to get our reputation back.''"<br/>"''I'm in your debt again. This is the second time you have taken me in when I had nowhere else to go and the second time you have turned me loose instead of turning me in.''"<br/>"''You are a good mechanic. There aren't so many of those that I'm willing to throw one away just because of a few Imperial entanglements.|Fardi and Tano|Ahsoka (novel)}} 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. He 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" /> ====Entanglements==== {{Quote|You've cost the Black Sun thousands of credits, and you'll pay them back one way or another.''"<br/>"''This is sounding less and less like a job.''"<br/>"''Your corpse is also acceptable.|A Black Sun member and Tano|Ahsoka (novel)}} 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 credits 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, but a larger vessel intervened before Tano's ship could sustain further damage, chasing the syndicate's starship 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==== {{Quote|I keep an eye out for acts of kindness in this new galaxy of our. When there's a concentration of them, I try to find out who is behind them, and then we have a talk.''"<br>"''What do you talk about?''"<br>"''The Rebellion, Padawan Tano. I look for people who will fight against the Emperor, the Empire, and everything it stands for.|Bail Organa and Tano|Ahsoka (novel)}} 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 then 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" /> ====Planning her return to Raada==== {{Quote|The overwhelmingly common descriptor is ''gray''. Not terribly helpful, I think? Even the security footage doesn't reveal too much.''"<br>"''A shadow? Gray like a shadow?''"<br>"''I suppose.|Bail Organa and Tano discuss the Sixth Brother|Ahsoka (novel)}} Tano agreed to the mission, but requested a meal since she was exhausted from her earlier adventures. Organa then 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 being the Sixth Brother, who had been stalking Hedala and was now charged with rooting out Tano. The Inquisitor had already attacked the Raadian insurgents who had retreated to the caves, recapturing Kaeden before slaughtering the others, including Kolvin and Neera. Only Miara had 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 a 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 upcoming 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. After her conversation with the senator, Tano rested in a room that Organa had provided for her. While sleeping, she experienced a flashback of her acquiring her kyber crystal as a youngling on Ilum. After resting, Tano assembled two lightsaber hilts from the scrap metal pieces she had acquired over time. Tano then met with Senator Organa and told him about her plan for their mission to Raada.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> ====Return to Raada==== =====Voyage===== {{Quote|Are you sure you don't want backup? I'm sure Chardri and Tamsin don't hold a grudge, and they're good in tight spaces. Well, they are when they know what they're up against.''"<br/>"''No, thank you. It'll be easier on my own.|Bail Organa and Ahsoka Tano|Ahsoka (novel)}} Prior to departing for Raada, Tano declined Organa's offer to provide a starship as she felt that the models would stand out in the Outer Rim. She also refused backup since she preferred to work alone, which Organa recalled that many of the Jedi he had encountered preferred as well, although Tano reiterated that she was not a Jedi. When Organa 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.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> On the way to Raada, Tano traveled past the planet Ilum, jumping out of hyperspace far from the world as she suspected that others might be present. She quickly discovered Imperial ships above Ilum, as well as large chunks mined from the planet. Angered at what the Empire had done to the world, Tano considered the possibility of attacking an Imperial mining ship, but remembered that Raada was her priority. Tano also considered going back to Rex's fake grave to retrieve her lightsabers, but decided against it as they had been left there intentionally to be discovered. She then reached out in the Force to find a crystal, locating one which was singing to her through the Force from Raada.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> =====Reunion with Miara===== {{Quote|Tell me what happened. What are you doing out here by yourself?''"<br/>"''We were doing ok. I mean, it was awful, but we were hiding, like you said. Then this terrible thing came, and he knew Kaeden's name. He said if she didn't come out, he'd blow the whole hillside up to kill us.|Ahsoka Tano and Miara Larte|Ahsoka (novel)}} After arriving on Raada, Tano parked her ship on the opposite side of the moon from the main settlement, knowing that there would likely be scanners that could trace her vessel near the 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 alone by a small fire. Tano learned that Miara was the lone survivor after the Sixth Brother had taken Kaeden prisoner and murdered the other farmers hiding in the caves. Tano convinced Miara to douse 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.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> 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 having the farmers work shifts 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" /> =====Duel with the Sixth Brother===== {{Quote|Jedi!''"<br/>"''You have something I want.''"<br/>"''Poor little Kaeden Larte. So hopeful that her Jedi friend would come for her. I had to tell her that Jedi don't have friends. Jedi don't have attachments of any kind.|The Sixth Brother confronts Tano|Ahsoka (novel)}} [[File:Ahsoka-rain-art.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Tano crafted a pair of white lightsabers using crystals from an Inquisitor's dual blade.]] While approaching the Imperial compound, Tano heard the Sixth Brother's call her out. The Inquisitor taunted her about her friendship with Kaeden, mocking her for violating the Jedi Code by forming attachments. Tano then detected him as he leapt down to attack her with his [[double-bladed spinning lightsaber]]. She dodged the Sixth Brother's attacks using the Force, the Inquisitor finding her endurance impressive. Stormtroopers lined up at the walls of the compound, forcing Tano to draw the fight into a side street to flee from the line of fire. As Tano continued to study the Sixth Brother, she asked what he was and what made him like he was. The Inquisitor stated that he served the Empire.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> Tano used the Force to throw the Sixth Brother off balance but he stepped back towards her. She reached out and held his lightsaber, despite the Inquisitor trying to disconnect his weapon and fight her with two separate sabers. Tano managed to nick the power connection in the lightsabers hilt, causing it to overload. As she then jumped back to safety, the hilt exploded on him, leaving the Sixth Brother dead and ridden with burns. 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" /> =====The evacuation===== {{Quote|We can't stay on the ground for long. We're going to have Imperials on our tails too soon.''"<br/>"''It's okay! The evacuation is already begun, and your A-wings took care of the Imperial fighters.|Raymus Antilles and Tano|Ahsoka (novel)}} Armed with her [[Ahsoka Tano's white lightsabers|new pair of white lightsabers]], Tano Force-jumped into the Imperial compound and made her way past the stormtrooper sentries to Kaeden's cell, deflecting blaster shots. Fighting through the corridors, Tano managed to open the doors to all of the cells, freeing all of the prisoners in the process. Kaeden reunited with Tano, and the pair 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 had already taken 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 opened fire on 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 Organa's Rebellion==== {{Quote|I thought I was done with the war, but maybe I don't know how to do anything else. I tried to cut myself off, but I kept getting drawn back in.''"<br/>"''I think, that you and I are meant to focus on the present.|Tano and Bail Organa|Ahsoka (novel)}} Some time following the evacuation of Raada, Tano smuggled herself aboard the ''[[Tantive III]]'' 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 Skywalker Organa Solo|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 about possible other Inquisitors 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 thus concurred 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. She 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" /> [[File:Fulcrum is born DoR.png|thumb|right|220px|Ahsoka shows Bail a hologram of the Fulcrum symbol.]] 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 III'' exited hyperspace above Alderaan. Tano also commented that the lack of communications had caused deaths on Raada and also rooted her hostile response to Tage and Tamsin. After some discussion, Tano convinced Organa to let her run his [[Rebel Alliance Intelligence Service|intelligence networks]] and to provide her with a new ship. At Organa's suggestion, Tano adopted the code name Fulcrum for her work as a rebel spy,<ref name="Ahsoka" /> allowing her to network with rebels across the galaxy, including an [[Anx]] [[Ahsoka's informant|informant]] located on the planet [[Garel]].<ref name="Ahsoka's Informant">{{FFGTCG|Ancient Rivals|cardname=Ahsoka's Informant|link=http://www.cardgamedb.com/index.php/starwars/star-wars-card-spoilers/_/opposition-cycle/ancient-rivals/ahsoka%e2%80%99s-informant-r1763}}</ref>.

Vader had allied himself with the ancient Sith Lord [[Momin]]—whose spirit inhabited a [[Mask of Lord Momin|mask]] he had worn many years prior to his downfall—in an attempt to revive his long-dead wife, Padmé Amidala. The two managed to construct a portal within a [[Sith cave]] below the fortress, which allowed Momin to resurrect himself but was once again killed by Vader shortly after. Now having gained access to the portal, Vader entered and began to explore, receiving many visions granted to him by the dark side of the Force. Several of these visions granted him a view of Tano, his former apprentice. He witnessed the two fighting side-by-side during the Clone Wars as well as their future [[Mission to Malachor|meeting]] upon [[Malachor]].<ref name="Darth Vader 25">[[Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith 25|''Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith'' 25]]</ref> ====Fighting for the rebellion==== =====Capturing Admiral Gann===== At some point, Tano was tasked with assembling a task force to capture the ruthless Imperial officer, Admiral [[Gann (Imperial officer)|Gann]] at his [[Gann's retreat|retreat]] on a distant world.<ref name="Home Invasion">{{SWIA|Ahsoka Tano Ally Pack|link=https://imperial-assault.fandom.com/wiki/Home_Invasion|cardname=Home Invasion}}</ref> Arriving at the facility, Tano and the group cautiously moved toward the admiral's facility. Arriving at the facility, Tano ordered one of the members of her team to go to [[Gann's Personal Suite]] while she disables the security systems throughout the facility. Before leaving, she informs them that she would meet up with them once she was finished with her task. With that, Tano killed two guards using her now activated lightsabers and used the Force to [[Force jump|jump]] up to a vent and crawl in.<ref name="Ahsoka Tano Ally Pack">{{SWIA|Ahsoka Tano Ally Pack}}</ref> {{RPGseed}} Eventually, the team Tano had brought with disabled the comms hub present within the facility leading Tano to inform the group that no reinforcements would be coming to rescue Gann and that the day was all but won.

After barely managing to hold Vader back from taking the shard,<ref name="Heart of the Empire" /> the rebel team now had to come up with a plan to escape. Meanwhile, Tano arrived with a shuttle to exctract the team. As they rushed outside at the sound of a ship's engines, they found Tano emerging from a shuttle. As Tano did this, she smiled at the rebel team and informed them that the rebel leaders had believed the team would need a bit of additional help escaping Corucant and told them that she was ready when they were.<ref name="Capital Escape">{{SWIA|Heart of the Empire|''Heart of the Empire''|link=https://imperial-assault.fandom.com/wiki/Capital_Escape|cardname=Capital Escape}}</ref> As the rebel team rushed out to board the shuttle, a large number of Imperial forces rushed out to capture them leading Tano to ignite her lightsabers and nod to the rebel team, signifying to them that she was ready to assist them in holding back the Imperials. As the rebels began to board the shuttle, Tano rushed to her own [[Ahsoka's shuttle|ship]] and called out to the team that she would draw their fire while they made their escape. However, the ship's engines were soon destroyed and the shuttle began to plummet toward the planet's surface. Before they crashed, Tano told them not to panic and that she would pick them up using her own ship after the team shut down the station's defenses.<ref name="Heart of the Empire" /> After the rebel team accomplished their task, Tano was able to land and extract the rebel team, escaping into hyperspace. Back at the rebels' headquarters, Tano and the rebel leaders discussed what they should do with the shard before deciding that it was too dangerous to use. Initially, the rebel leaders wanted to destroy the artifact, but Tano convinced them against doing so and instead, a task force was assembled to take the shard to a remote corner of the galaxy where it would remain hidden.<ref name="Heart of the Empire" /> {{Endgame}} =====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|right|250px|Ahsoka, as "Fulcrum," speaking to rebel member Hera via hologram, urging her to bring her cell into hiding]] By [[5 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 Spectres 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]]—the daughter of Ursa Wren, whom Tano had encountered during the Clone Wars—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> Tano wrote a report to General [[Davits Draven]] about the Spectres, praising them for their efforts in [[Mission to free Wookiee prisoners|freeing Wookiee prisoners]], destroying a Star Destroyer, and disrupting Imperial shipping lanes between Lothal and Garel. She expressed her opinion that Syndulla's skills were wasted and that the team could do so much more with improved hardware and support.<ref name="Rebel Files">''[[Star Wars: The Rebel Files]]''</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 was 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 that she was not trusted 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" /> At some point afterward, Tano assigned the crew of the ''Ghost'' a [[Mission to Kaller|mission]] to pick up supplies on [[Kaller]] destined for the Lothal settlement [[Lothal re-settlement camp 43|Tarkintown]]. Tano had already set up crates for the group waiting for them to pick up upon their arrival.<ref name="Kanan 1">[[Kanan 1|''Kanan'' 1]]</ref> However, by the time the Spectres arrived at the location Tano's coordinates had identified, the crates' contents had been stolen.<ref name="Kanan 6">[[Kanan 6|''Kanan'' 6]]</ref> Eventually, the Spectres managed to regain the contents of the crates and left Kaller<ref name="Kanan 12">[[Kanan 12|''Kanan'' 12]]</ref> after becoming entangled with some Imperial forces.<ref name="Kanan 11">[[Kanan 11|''Kanan'' 11]]</ref> 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" /> =====A lesson for Bridger===== {{Quote|How does it feel to be one of the few with a lightsaber?''"<br />"''Uh, strong, I guess, confident, powerful.''"<br />"''Oh, so you're not powerful without it?|Ahsoka speaks with Ezra regarding his feeling on being one of the few with a lightsaber, leading to a lesson from the former Jedi Padawan|A Disarming Lesson}} [[File:FODADisarmingLesson.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Tano taught Bridger an unorthodox lesson for the Padawan.]] 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.<ref name="Siege of Lothal" /> On one occasion, Tano and Bridger traveled to a planet where Bridger was practicing his lightsaber form. While Bridger practiced, Tano startled Bridger and asked him where he got his weapon. Bridger explained the origin of his weapon and handed it to Tano. With the weapon, Tano took out the kyber crystal and asked Bridger how he felt to be one of the only ones in the galaxy with a lightsaber. With his response not satisfying her, she decided to teach Bridger a lesson and tossed the crystal into a nearby field. Exasperated, Bridger was tossed back his weapon as Tano activated one of her own. Tano began to swing her lightsaber at Bridger who believed he had no way to defend himself as he questioned her motives. As Tano continued to attack Bridger, she let him focus on the Force to evade her, while simultaneously searching for where his crystal had landed. As he evaded, Bridger eventually discovered his crystal and activated his lightsaber to stop Tano's oncoming blade. Deactivating her weapon, Tano questioned him on retrieving his crystal to which he told a joke and the two began to laugh.<ref name="Disarming">{{FOD|A Disarming Lesson}}</ref> =====Attempting to rescue Janard===== Sometime after the ''Ghost'' crew joined Phoenix Squadron, a distress signal was picked up from a ''Gozanti''-class cruiser; sourcing from one of Wren's old friends, [[Janard]], who helped her escape from the [[Imperial Academy of Mandalore]]. Tano decided to join Syndulla and Wren on the [[Mission to rescue Janard|mission]] to rescue Janard and joined them in the cockpit as they approached the ocean planet [[Quila]], where the freighter had been ditched. On approach, Wren assured Syndulla and Tano that the message being sent was from the freighter. Tano asked Syndulla if any Imperial activity had yet been detected and Syndulla assured her that there had been none, but Tano knew they could appear at any moment and that they needed to be ready. With this, Wren rose from her seat as she and Tano went to grab their scuba gear. While getting their gear, Tano asked Wren about the importance of Janard to her and she explained her backstory with him, which was owing her life to him as he had saved her years ago. As they approached to jump into the water, Wren thanked Tano for assisting her in this mission, and, with that, Tano informed her of her underwater operations during the Clone Wars. Sensing Wren's fear of the ocean, Tano attempted to reassure her, but only managed to make Wren's fears worse. The two then jumped into the oceans of Quila.<ref name="Ocean">{{SWRMCite|12|Ocean Rescue}}</ref> [[File:AhsokaAndSabineJumpIntoTheOceansOfWQuila.png|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka and Sabine jump into the oceans of Quila.]] Inside the crashed freighter, Wren and Tano went to the holding cells to find Janard since he had been a prisoner aboard the ship. However, their path was blocked by a fallen beam, which Tano and Wren easily moved aside with the help of Tano's lightsabers. While moving the beams, Tano continued to attempt to reassure Wren about being underwater. Moving past the beam, the two were attacked by an [[Unidentified eel species|eel]]. It quickly jumped on Wren as she attempted to ward it off with several blaster bolts, but Tano easily managed to wrestle it off of her and used the Force to push it away. However, the eel had damaged Wren's [[oxygen]] tanks and she was losing oxygen fast. Tano quickly reconnected the oxygen tubes and gave her some of her oxygen to compensate for Wren's depleted tanks. Finally, the two reached the detention cells. As Wren opened the cell door, she and Tano rushed in with their weapons drawn, but they both quickly discovered that the cell was empty. With this discovery, the two left the detention level and continued to explore the ship.<ref name="Ocean" /> [[File:Sabine Ahsoka Janard run from water.png|thumb|right|250px|The trio escape the flooding of the freighter.]] Shortly after, Wren and Tano reached an area of the ship not yet flooded, but they both knew that they were on the clock as water was still seeping in. Beginning to hurry, the two decided that they should check the front sections of the bridge when they heard blaster fire around the corner and began to believe that they had found Janard. Turning the corner, the two discovered two stormtroopers chasing after Janard, who had managed to escape from Imperial custody. Wren quickly shot the two stormtroopers and she and Janard were reunited. Just as they began to turn to leave, more stormtroopers arrived and Wren and Tano dealt with them in their own separate ways. Just then, the three of them began to hear rushing water as their area of the ship began to be flooded. Tano ordered them all to run and the three just barely managed to escape by Tano slamming a security door shut behind them with the Force. Now out of danger, Tano told them that they should go to the bridge to try to contact Syndulla for a pick-up.<ref name="Ocean" /> Reaching the bridge, the three attempted to send Syndulla a distress signal, but their signal was jammed by the arrival of another ''Gozanti''-class cruiser. As they decided what to do next, they discovered more stormtroopers and an [[Unidentified Imperial officer (Quila)|Imperial officer]] standing in their way. Just then, Syndulla arrived with the ''Ghost'' and began to attack the newly arrived cruiser as the trio saw their opportunity and attacked their newly arrived adversaries. As the ''Gozanti'' went down in flames outside, the ''Ghost'' arrived to pick up the three; however, Janard was fatally shot in the back before he could leave, dying in Sabine's arms. As Janard gave a heartfelt goodbye, Tano ordered Wren to get out of the crashed freighter, and the two jumped back into the ocean and went back to the ''Ghost''.<ref name="Ocean" /> On board the ''Ghost'', Syndulla attempted to comfort Wren for the loss of her friend. Tano, however, left her with the lesson that not everyone could be saved in a war, which Wren took to heart and reminded her that Janard would be remembered in history as a good and heroic man.<ref name="Ocean" /> =====The Siege of Lothal===== 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:SomethingFamiliar-EaW.png|thumb|left|250px|Tano and Jarrus sense Darth Vader through the Force.]] 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 military strategic analysis and tactics 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> =====Discovering more Inquisitors===== 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]]. 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 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 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="Shroud of Darkness" /> [[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="Shroud of Darkness" /> 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="Shroud of Darkness" /> =====Twilight of the apprentice===== ======Traveling to Malachor====== [[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> [[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 killed 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 Tano would not cooperate. Tano replied in disgust that, though she had begun to suspect who Vader was behind his mask, his cruelty now led 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> ====The World Between Worlds==== {{Quote|Wait, what happened? Where am I?''"<br />"''You were fighting Vader. I saw you in there. He was going to… So I… I grabbed you, and I pulled you out of there.|Ahsoka Tano and Ezra Bridger|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 Morai.

She was very feisty and snippy and, like her master, 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" /> Throughout her time as a Jedi, she remained close with Plo Koon, who had brought her to the Jedi Temple, and saw him as an important mentor in her life.<ref name="Rising Malevolence" /> [[File:A_New_Beginning_AR.png|thumb|left|300px|Following her expulsion and trial, Tano lost faith in the Jedi Order.]] 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">{{SW|url=the-wrong-jedi-episode-gallery|text=The Wrong Jedi Episode Gallery|archivedate=20200314175641}}</ref> Tano formed a strong bond with the clones, especially Captain Rex, and throughout her time as serving as their commander had learned a lot from them. She respected the clones as individuals and got along with them very well. When Tano found herself serving with the clones of the 501st again at the Siege of Mandalore, the clones continued to salute her out of respect and even repainted their helmets in her likeness to show how much she meant to them. When Order 66 turned the friends she had served with for years into enemies, Tano stood by her beliefs and told Rex to not kill them, determined to escape without directly killing her former comrades. When the ship crashed into the moon, Tano returned to the crash site to dig graves for each clone.<ref name="Victory and Death" /> [[File:AhsokaCloneGraveyard-VaD.png|thumb|right|300px|Ahsoka looks on at the graves of the clones.]] 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" /> 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" /> ===Relationship with Anakin Skywalker=== ====Anakin's student==== {{Quote|Thanks for the support. As always.''"<br/>"''That's what friends are for.|Tano and Skywalker, in their last meeting as friends|Old Friends Not Forgotten}} Tano's relationship with her Master was tenuous to start. Skywalker had maintained that he would never take on a Padawan learner for fear that he would be "slowed down," so he was originally strongly opposed to Master Yoda's assigning of the young Ahsoka to him. As for Tano, she was eager to prove herself to her new teacher, but her enthusiasm often came at odds with her brash nature, a trait shared by Skywalker himself. The two would often butt heads, each believing that they knew better than the other. During their first mission together at the Battle of Christophsis, they developed demeaning nicknames for each other; Tano gave her Master the diminutive title "Skyguy," while Skywalker returned the favor with the name "Snips," referring to Tano's snippy wit. As the war progressed, these nicknames would change into more playful terms of friendship.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> For all their bickering, the two developed a close relationship during the Clone Wars. Skywalker reassured his Padawan that their meeting was no accident and that it was the will of the Force for her to train under him.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> Their rapport made it's way onto the battlefield, with the duo competing to see who could destroy the most droids during the Second Battle of Geonosis.<ref name="Landing at Point Rain" /> The master and apprentice grew increasingly reliant on each other throughout the war, taking turns rescuing each other from Separatist forces<ref name="TCWFilm" /> and bounty hunters.<ref name="Cargo of Doom" /> During her time on Mortis, Tano was killed by the Son and only resurrected after Skywalker pleaded with the Father to help save her.<ref name="Altar of Mortis" /> Later, after being captured by Trandoshan hunters, Tano credited her master's teachings as the one thing that allowed her to survive.<ref name="Wookiee Hunt" /> Skywalker grew protective of his Padawan, which Tano viewed as a lack of trust in her abilities. During the mission to Lola Sayu, Tano directly disobeyed Skywalker and joined his team, believing she should be the one to decide when to put her life in danger, not her master.<ref name="The Citadel">{{TCW|The Citadel}}</ref> Later, when Tano went on the run after being accused of murder, she realized that Skywalker was the only person who would believe in her innocence and begged him to trust that she would make the right decision.<ref name="The Jedi Who Knew Too Much" /> Ultimately, however, Tano left the Jedi Order, knowing that she had to discover more about herself without the help of her master. Skywalker confessed to his Padawan that he too understood the desire to leave the Order, and Tano,<ref name="The Wrong Jedi" /> who had become aware of a connection between her master and Senator Amidala,<ref name="Unexpected Company" /> assured him that she knew.<ref name="The Wrong Jedi" /> [[File:AhsokaNewSabers-OFNF.png|thumb|left|250px|Anakin returns Ahsoka's lightsabers.]] During her time away from the Order, Tano held her master in respect, regarding him as her own brother.<ref name="Gone with a Trace" /> The lessons she had learned from him stayed with her in her exile; when asked by Trace Martez where she had learned to fly, the former Padawan credited her skills to "Skywalker Academy."<ref name="Deal No Deal" /> Even still, when she was approached by the Nite Owls to join in the fight against Maul, Tano feared that she would become closer to the life and master she had left behind, but knew that she must go with them to help others.<ref name="Together Again">{{TCW|Together Again}}</ref> As she came face-to-face with Skywalker prior to the Siege of Mandalore, she did not indulge an emotional reunion and focused her attention on convincing the Jedi to assist the Mandalorians. In their final meeting as friends, Skywalker gifted Tano with her old lightsabers, now shining with blue blades, just as his [[Skywalker lightsaber|own]] did.<ref name="Old Friends" /> ====Vader's nemesis==== {{Quote|Anakin Skywalker was weak. I destroyed him.''"<br/>"''Then I will avenge his death.|Vader and Tano|Twilight of the Apprentice}} During the Siege of Mandalore, Tano learned from Maul that Skywalker had been groomed for years to become the apprentice of Darth Sidious, but she refused to trust the Zabrak, defiantly believing that she knew her master.<ref name="TPA" /> After Maul's capture, Tano attempted to speak with Skywalker but was unable to make contact with him. Later, she was able to feel his fall to the dark side through the Force, hearing him call out in anguish after attacking Mace Windu. She had no time to process these events before the execution of Order 66,<ref name="Shattered" /> forcing her to go into hiding.<ref name="Victory and Death" /> Although she did not know the fate of her master, she remembered him fondly, never forgetting the compassion and kindness Anakin offered to the galaxy.<ref name="Shroud of Darkness" /> [[File:Ahsoka sees a hologram of Anakin.png|thumb|right|250px|Ahsoka sees a hologram of Anakin.]] During her time with the Spectres, Tano was stationed aboard the ''Phoenix Home'' when the Rebel fleet was attacked by the Sith Lord Darth Vader. During the battle, Tano sensed the anger and hatred emanating from the dark sider, and she was met with the realization that the individual behind Vader's mask was Skywalker. The incongruity of the two men being the same caused Tano to lose consciousness. In the aftermath of this discovery, Tano struggled to accept the truth. Although she maintained that she was unaware of the Sith Lord's identity,<ref name="Siege of Lothal" /> she secretly harbored feelings of grief and guilt, haunted by the idea that she could have helped her master in his time of need. During a mission to the Jedi Temple on Lothal, Tano was confronted by a vision of Skywalker that preyed upon these fears, blaming her for allowing Darth Vader to rise. Tano fought back against the vision, believing that there was still a way to reach her master.<ref name="Shroud of Darkness" /> [[File:Twilight of the Apprentice thumb.png|thumb|left|300px|Ahsoka met her former master and dueled him.]] Upon finally coming face-to-face with her former master once again on Malachor, Tano refused to believe that he and Vader were the same person; she was unable to reconcile the Sith Lord's vile nature with the kindness of the man she once knew. Although it pained her, Tano viewed Vader as the murderer of Anakin Skywalker and vowed to avenge her master's death, going against the Jedi teachings she had learned as a child. She battled him atop the Sith Temple, defending the Padawan Ezra Bridger. As the Temple began to collapse, Tano damaged Vader's mask, revealing the scorched face of Skywalker. The sight of her master forced her to pause. Feeling the guilt from leaving him years ago, Tano refused to leave Vader and continued to duel as her friends escaped.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> Before the debris of the ceiling could crush them both, Tano destroyed the floor beneath them, causing Vader to fall, effectively saving his life.<ref name="A World Between Worlds" /> ==Powers and abilities== ===Lightsaber abilities=== {{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)}} Ahsoka Tano initially made use of an unorthodox reverse grip during combat, but eventually began to utilize the standard grip at the insistence of her master.<ref name="Preview Special">[[Dave Filoni]] in [[Star Wars: The Clone Wars (TV series)|''The Clone Wars'']] Preview Special</ref> Tano was a particularly acrobatic lightsaber duelist who often utilized the Force to jump down on her opponents and to perform backflips in order to avoid lightsaber strikes.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /><ref name="TPA" /> At the beginning of her apprenticeship under Skywalker, Tano's combat skills were already quite considerable given that she defeated three IG-100 MagnaGuards single-handedly during her first mission.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> Later, Tano temporarily held her ground against the skilled Sith assassin Asajj Ventress<ref name="Cloak of Darkness" /> and the Jedi hunter General Grievous after only a very short time training under Skywalker.<ref name="Duel of the Droids" /> [[File:Ahsoka Tano SWDL Darren Tan.png|thumb|right|200px|While still an apprentice, Tano became a practitioner of Jar'Kai.]] During the Clone Wars, Tano became a practitioner of [[Jar'Kai]], wielding a yellowish-green shoto lightsaber in addition to her standard lightsaber. However, Tano occasionally utilized only her main lightsaber, such as when she dueled Skywalker on Mortis while under the dark side influence of the Son. Nevertheless, Tano more commonly utilized Jar'Kai, particularly when facing multiple opponents such as when she engaged the much more experienced Skywalker and Kenobi on Mortis.<ref name="Altar of Mortis" /><ref name="FB">{{FacebookCite||url=notes/dave-filoni/qa/10150219391017571|author=[[Dave Filoni]]|dateposted=March 23, 2011|description=Q&A|image=File:Filoni_Facebook_Q&A.png}}</ref> 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 overwhelmed her.<ref name="To Catch a Jedi" /> Around two years after{{Fact}} her first duel with Grievous, Tano proved during their encounter on Florrum that her skills in lightsaber combat had improved vastly as she held her own against all four of Grievous's lightsabers,<ref name="A Necessary Bond" /> whereas previously she only lasted a short time when he was using only two lightsabers.<ref name="Duel of the Droids" /> By the time of the Siege of Mandalore, Tano demonstrated highly advanced skills in lightsaber combat as evidenced by her prolonged duel with the powerful former Sith Lord Maul. Although Maul successfully disarmed Tano at the conclusion of their duel, she turned Maul’s own attack against him in order to defeat him nonetheless.<ref name="TPA" /> 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 easily defeated two Imperial Inquisitors at once and even deactivated 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 again proved capable of fighting several Inquisitors at once and even disarmed the Fifth Brother and destroyed his lightsaber. During the same mission, Tano again proved capable of dueling to a stalemate with the former Sith Lord Maul before breaking off the fight to rescue Ezra Bridger. Shortly afterward, Tano engaged in an intense duel with Darth Vader, and although she ultimately lost, she proved capable of putting up a much more impressive fight against him than either Jarrus or Bridger were previously able to.<ref name="Twilight of the Apprentice" /> ===Force powers=== {{Quote|Because of Ahsoka's advanced abilities, I forgot how young she is.|Anakin Skywalker|Holocron Heist}} [[File:AhsokaForcePush-TA.png|thumb|left|250px|Ahsoka Force pushes a Pyke Guard into a wall.]] Tano was gifted with raw Force skill<ref name="Ultimate Star Wars" /> and was noted by her master to possess advanced abilities.<ref name="Holocron Heist" /> At the beginning of her apprenticeship, Tano was capable of telekinetic feats as evidenced 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 strongly [[Force push|pushed]] Ventress and flung her back some distance in order to save the life of Luminara Unduli.<ref name="Cloak of Darkness" /> After leaving the Order, Tano’s telekinetic abilities advanced to the point that she was able to hold Maul aloft high above the city of Sundari<ref name="TPA" /> and could use the Force to prevent a small starship from taking off.<ref name="Victory and Death" /> Tano later proved able to create a powerful protective [[Force barrier]] that was capable of temporarily holding back fiery dark side energies conjured by Darth Sidious.<ref name="A World Between Worlds" /> Tano also had a strong ability to sense things in the Force, feeling 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 visions and dreams. She used the Force to heal two corrupted kyber crystals that had been "bled red" and restored 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.

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 killed 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 had a considerable knowledge of mechanics, which she had learned from her Master.

She originally built her first lightsaber, which had a silver cylindrical hilt and a green blade, before becoming Anakin Skywalker's Padawan at the Battle of Christophsis.<ref name="TCWFilm" /> She wielded this lightsaber by itself for some time, before constructing a shoto lightsaber with a matching hilt and a yellow-green blade to accompany it upon taking up Jar'Kai.<ref name="Overlords">{{TCW|Overlords}}</ref> Both sabers had kyber crystals from the sacred planet of Ilum.<ref name="Ahsoka">''[[Ahsoka (novel)|Ahsoka]]''</ref> Tano wielded both lightsabers in battle until her departure from the Jedi Order, upon which the weapons fell into the care of her former master Skywalker. While they were in his custody, Skywalker tinkered with them to improve them, which led to the sabers having blue blades when he returned them to Tano before the start of the Siege of Mandalore.<ref name="Old Friends" /> Tano would later abandon the sabers on a [[moon]] after the issuing of Order 66<ref name="Victory and Death" /> in order to fake her death to the Empire.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> [[File:Ahsokas Lightsabers AR.png|thumb|right|175px|Ahsoka wielding her white lightsabers]] Over a year after the Clone Wars, Tano constructed a new pair of lightsabers, these ones with white blades, during the evacuation of Raada. The weapons initially had rough handles made of pieces of scrap Tano had acquired on her journeys, although she later rebuilt the hilts to be more functional and decorative. The kyber crystals within, as well as their mountings, came from the lightsaber of the Inquisitor Sixth Brother, whom Tano had defeated on Raada. Tano found the crystals familiar, and speculated they had been looted from the Jedi Temple after the Order's fall. After claiming the crystals, she purified them of the taint of the dark side until they shone white before assembling the weapons.<ref name="Ahsoka" /> These white lightsabers continued to serve her during the early rebellion, as she used them in battle against multiple Inquisitors, as well as Darth Vader.<ref name="The Future of the Force" /> During her time on Thabeska in the first year of the Empire, Tano also owned a blaster, but she destroyed it in order to provide a diversion for her escape.
