- "The last time I went on one of these ransom missions, I spent three weeks in a dungeon."
- ―Senator Kharrus
A mission to Florrum took place during the Clone Wars. After the pirate captain Hondo Ohnaka captured Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, and Sith Lord and Confederate Head of State Count Dooku, the Galactic Republic prepared to pay Ohnaka and his gang a hefty ransom for exchange of the prisoners. A group led by Senator Kharrus, Junior Representative Jar Jar Binks, and Clone Commander Stone traveled to the planet Florrum, where Ohnaka's base of operations was located, but their shuttle was shot down by a group of treasonous pirates, led by Turk Falso. The ship crashed in the Doshar fields, with casualties including Mack, his fellow clone trooper pilot, and Kharrus. The survivors would advance towards Hondo's complex in an attempt to finish the mission.[3]
Aftermath[]
- "Clanker, ND whatever number you are, I don't see many of your kind anymore. I have to say, you sure knew how to put on a war."
"My designation is ND-5."
"Of course, of course. You know clanker, I once captured leaders from both sides." - ―Hondo Ohnaka and ND-5
Dooku would later exact revenge on Ohnaka by sending General Grievous to lead an invasion of Florrum.[5]
In 3 ABY, Hondo mentioned the mission to Florrum when he told BX-series droid commando ND-5 that he once captured leaders from both sides of the Clone Wars.[4]
