Shortly before the Clone Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker defended Naboo Senator Padmé Amidala against repeated assassination attempts. The bounty hunter Zam Wesell was silenced before she could tell what she knew, and the weapon that killed her was a saberdart of Kaminoan manufacture. An associate of Obi-Wan’s told him the Kaminoans were skilled cloners. But to Obi-Wan’s bafflement, the Jedi Archives had no record of Kamino. The planet had been erased from the archives.

    • Shortly before the Clone Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker defended Naboo Senator Padmé Amidala against repeated assassination attempts. The bounty hunter Zam Wesell was silenced before she could tell what she knew, and the weapon that killed her was a saberdart of Kaminoan manufacture. An associate of Obi-Wan’s told him the Kaminoans were skilled cloners. But to Obi-Wan’s bafflement, the Jedi Archives had no record of Kamino. The planet had been erased from the archives.
    • Obi-Wan deduced that Kamino was beyond the Outer Rim near the Rishi Maze. He flew there and discovered a stormy waterworld, its oceans dotted with cities on stilt legs. Obi-Wan landed at Tipoca City, and to his surprise found that he was expected.
    • Kaminoan Prime Minister Lama Su explained that his people had created a massive clone army for the Republic, and had done so at the request of Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas, a member of the Jedi Council.
    • Here lay a mystery. Sifo-Dyas had been dead for nearly a decade, and the Jedi Council had never approved the creation of such an army. Something strange was happening on remote Kamino.
    • Obi-Wan toured Kamino’s facilities, marveling at gestating clone embryos and mature clones training to be soldiers. The Kaminoans told him the clones had been created from the genetic material of Jango Fett, a bounty hunter who lived in Tipoca City.
    • Obi-Wan recognized Fett as the assassin he’d sought on Coruscant, and tried to capture him so he could be questioned. After a furious fight in Kamino’s ever-present rain, Fett fled in his starship, and Obi-Wan tracked him through hyperspace to Geonosis.
    • After the Senate granted the Supreme Chancellor emergency powers to deal with the Separatist Crisis, Palpatine immediately authorized creation of an army to defend the Republic. Such an army was available: Master Yoda traveled to Kamino and took command of the clones. During the Clone Wars, the Jedi abandoned their traditional role of peacekeepers and led Kamino’s clones as generals.
    • Kamino became the center of clone production and training, making it a vital part of the Republic war effort – and a key target for the Separatists. The planet was defended by Republic task forces and a string of listening posts, and granted representation in the Senate, with the Kaminoan Halle Burtoni speaking for its interests.
    • Clones were tested shortly after birth and trained for war, learning in classrooms and combat simulations. Cadets who met the Kaminoans’ standards were sent to the battlefields of the Clone Wars.
    • Jedi Master Shaak Ti monitored clone production and training on behalf of the Jedi Council, working with mercenaries such as Bric and El-Les and Kaminoan scientists, whose ranks included Taun We and Nala Se.
    • The Separatists assaulted Kamino, attempting to stop clone production. The Republic blockade of the planet held, but the Separatists penetrated it by hiding assault craft in debris from the space battle.
    • Asajj Ventress had infiltrated Kamino and took command of the surface attack, assaulting Tipoca City with battle droids and linking up with General Grievous.
