Biography

Republic duty

"I've got you beat, Hardcase! Clanker head. Found it in the sand mound back there."

―Bellow discovers a droid part

Bellow discovered a droid head on Benglor.

The clone trooper who adopted the name Bellow served in the 501st Legion of the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Like all of the Republic's clone troopers, he was created and trained on the planet Kamino as a clone of the human bounty hunter Jango Fett. During the Clone Wars in 22 BBY, he served under Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and Clone Captain Rex on a mission to the planet Benglor in order to investigate Separatist activity there.

Bellow trekked through the hot jungle of Benglor with Skywalker, Rex and two other clones, in search of Separatists. Just as Skywalker began considering ending the mission due to the extreme heat, the clone Hardcase discovered goo on one of the nearby trees, which he alerted the others to as a potential clue.

Benglor breakfast

"We can't fall back! This thing swallowed Bellow!"

―Hardcase refuses to retreat

Bellow was eaten by a creature on Benglor.

Bellow then discovered a B1-series battle droid head in a sand mound near the goo, and claiming that his evidence was better than Hardcase's, presented it to Rex and the Jedi. As the clones discovered more parts of the droid, Skywalker realized the pieces had been purposefully left as a trail for them to find. However, before he could warn the others of the potential trap, Bellow discovered more of the goo and called out to the others.

Skywalker called out to the clone as a large creature emerged from the undergrowth behind Bellow and attacked him. The clone had time only to turn and cry out in horror as the creature wrapped its tongue around him and then swallowed the trooper. When Skywalker then ordered the others to retreat, Hardcase refused and attacked the creature in order to avenge Bellow. The Jedi was then forced to save Hardcase, and ultimately slew the creature with aid from Rex. Rex later told Clone Commander CC-2224 the tale of Bellow's death during the Separatist siege of the planet Hisseen.
