Biography


Decanted on the planet Kamino by the Kaminoan species, 17 was a Human male clone of the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett. They served as a clone trooper in the Galactic Republic's Grand Army during the Clone Wars against the Confederacy of Independent Systems, a separatist group that attempted to secede from the Republic. In 22 BBY, 17 was deployed to the planet Geonosis, where they fought in the first battle of the Clone Wars.

On Geonosis, 17 and fellow trooper Three-Five greeted the clone commando Boss. Trooper 17 pointed out Boss to their companion, who responded by praising the highly-skilled commandos, remarking that they could defeat the Separatist forces alone. The trio then joined two other clone troopers in defending a barricade from Confederate B1-Series battle droids. The droids blew through a wall to avoid the barricade, killing one of the troopers. Despite the casualty, Boss, 17, 35, and the other surviving clone defeated the attacking droids, pushing them back to a Separatist gun emplacement.
