The Confederacy of Independent Systems, also known as the Separatist Alliance, was a collection of star systems and corporate titans that left the Republic and fought for independence against the Republic’s clone armies and Jedi Knights. The charismatic former Jedi Count Dooku was the Alliance’s political leader, while its military power came from credits and assets donated by powerful galactic trade groups. No one suspected that the Alliance was actually a tool of Darth Sidious, who had engineered the Clone Wars as part of a Sith plot to rule the galaxy.

A natural and practical leader in the clone army, Commander Cody's keen ability to strategize, combined with his fierce combat style in the heat of battle once earned him the respect of the Jedi and of his fellow clones. After years in service to General Obi-Wan Kenobi and working alongside his friend Captain Rex, when Darth Sidious executed Order 66, Cody's loyalty was eclipsed by his clone indoctrination, and he ordered his troops to fire on the Jedi. But after serving the Galactic Empire for a time, Cody began to realize that the Empire's idea of order called for brute force and bending the truth. And after leading a mission to secure the world of Desix in the name on the Emperor, Cody vanished.

Ringed by numerous moons, the remote sanctuary of Utapau is a planet pitted with enormous sinkholes. Its windswept surface is dry and desert-like, but deep in the porous crust, at the bottom of the sinkholes are pools of life-giving water. Many of the sinkholes on one of the planet's small continents are lined with intricate cities that stretch deep into caves and crevices beneath the planet's surface, as well as mining operations that seek to uncover valuable minerals from the planet's depths.

An ancient creature accidentally unearthed on Malastare during an intense battle of the Clone Wars, the zillo beast was a monster of legend. The enormous animal proved to be nearly invulnerable to Republic weaponry, prompting intense interest from then-Chancellor Palpatine. At his order, the creature was incapacitated and transported to a secure research facility on Coruscant, before it broke free and terrorized the capital. In the era of the Empire, Emperor Palpatine's scientists continue to work on harnessing the species' natural gifts, with disastrous consequences. On one occasion, an Imperial craft carrying a modified version of the creature crash-landed on the world of Silla, leaving the modified zillo to blindly hunt for power sources, gulping at energy conduits to propel its rapid growth, and feasting on one of the planet's solar farms.

A clumsy, well-meaning Gungan outcast on Naboo, Jar Jar Binks struggled to prove his worth throughout his life. Putting his awkward past behind him, Jar Jar left the swamps of Naboo to enter the even murkier waters of Coruscant politics, becoming a representative for his people in the galactic capital. There, his best intentions and eagerness to serve were exploited by scheming Senators and others in positions of power.
