Cort Davin

Following the outbreak of the Clone Wars at Geonosis, a conflict waged between the Galactic Republic and the Separatists of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Davin stayed on as clone training sergeant, assisting the Kaminoan cloners with the instruction of new Advanced Recon Commandos and clone commanders as part of an advanced learning program instituted by ARC trooper Alpha-17. Among Davin's trainees was CC-1138, known by the nickname "Bacara." From Davin, Bacara learned the ways of the Journeyman Protectors, coming to think of himself as a enforcer of law and order. Davin also taught Bacara the Concordian dialect, and came to view the early graduate of the commander training program as one of his most successful students.

Cort Davin was first introduced to Star Wars canon in the Guide to the Grand Army of the Republic, a Star Wars Insider article authored by Karen Traviss and Ryan Kaufman, and published in September of 2005 as part of the magazine's eighty-forth issue.

In his blog on StarWars.com, Ryan Kaufman revealed that he had named Davin after a character his childhood friend created in his youth, back when the two had played together with their Star Wars action figures.
