Klothow

Edit

"Welcome child of Dathomir. You do our ancestors credit."
"Thank you, Great Mother."
―Klothow and Morgan Elsbeth[2]

Klothow was a Dathomirian female Nightsister witch, who was one of three Great Mothers who allied with Mitth'raw'nuruodo.[2] In 9 ABY,[5] they greeted Morgan Elsbeth and her mercenaries Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati when they arrived on the planet Peridea. They had called Elsbeth through her dreams and claimed their meeting was fate. She and her sisters later heralded the arrival of a Jedi, who Thrawn suspected to be Ahsoka Tano.[2] Klothow then aided the Grand Admiral in locating Tano's location within the Purrgil graveyard. Following the transfer of their cargo to Thrawn's Star Destroyer, the Chimaera, Klothow used her magick to create Elsbeth's facial tattoos and gifted her with the Blade of Talzin. She was also present when Elsbeth agreed to remain behind to slow down Tano, and her allies. While leaving Peridea aboard the Eye of Sion, Klothow sensed Morgan's death at the hands of Tano and informed him. This prompted him to bombard the Dathomiri Fortress, to Klothow's displeasure. Upon successfully escaping the far galaxy, she was escorted to Dathomir.

Behind the scenes[]

Klothow first appeared in "Part Six: Far, Far Away," the sixth episode of the Ahsoka television series and was portrayed by Claudia Black. While not identified in the episode, her name was given in the credits.[2] In Greek Mythology, the similarly named Clotho was one of three goddesses known as the Fates who determined destiny itself,[6] similar to how Klothow and the other Great Mothers could read and know fate.[2] Clotho specifically was the one of the three goddesses who spun the thread of fate.[6]

  5. ↑ SWInsider "A Certain Point of View" — Star Wars Insider 228 dates the events of "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" to 9 ASW4. As SW4 occurs in 0 BBY according to Star Wars: Timelines, 9 ASW4 correlates to 9 ABY. Preceding episodes take place after The Book of Boba Fett, which is also dated to 9 ABY according to Timelines. As "Part Eight: The Jedi, the Witch, and the Warlord" takes place shortly after Part Seven, the events of Ahsoka as a whole must all take place the same year.
  6. ↑ 6.0 6.1 Fate on www.britannica.com: "Fate, […] in Greek and Roman mythology, any of three goddesses who determined human destinies, and in particular the span of a person's life and his allotment of misery and suffering. […] From the time of the poet Hesiod (8th century BC) on, however, the Fates were personified as three very old women who spin the threads of human destiny. Their names were Clotho (Spinner), Lachesis (Allotter), and Atropos (Inflexible). Clotho spun the "thread" of human fate, Lachesis dispensed it, and Atropos cut the thread (thus determining the individual's moment of death)." (archived from the original on June 9, 2023)
