Biography

Force Speed 2018 SWD Store Championship alt card

Tiplar and her sister engage Separatist forces during the Battle of Ringo Vinda.

In 20 BBY,[1] Tiplar was teamed with her sister Tiplee and their fellow Jedi Anakin Skywalker to conquer a Separatist space station located in orbit around the planet Ringo Vinda. During the battle that ensued, she noticed clone trooper CT-5385, nicknamed "Tup", approaching her and, assuming that he was coming to reinforce her, was stunned when he pointed his blaster at her and shot her at point-blank range, killing her instantly. Tiplee noticed this occurrence and ran to Tiplar, but she was already dead. Following her death, Skywalker sent Tup back to Kamino, where the clone troopers were created, to find the reasons behind his apparent malfunction.[2]

The circumstances of Tiplar's murder were revealed to be a conspiracy by the Supreme Chancellor himself to use the clone troopers in a plot to murder the Jedi, a directive which was programmed into them via an inhibitor chip in their brains. Tup's chip malfunctioned, causing him to murder Tiplar preemptively. Fellow trooper CT-5555, or "Fives," attempted to prove this, but thanks to the Chancellor's manipulations, the secret died with him.

Equipment

When engaged in combat, Tiplar wielded a green lightsaber.[2]

Behind the scenes

Tiplar's design, alongside that of her sister Tiplee, was based on concept art for a female Sith that was cut from Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones.[3]
