Pix (Jedi)

Pix, a Force-sensitive Human female, was a Padawan who served the Jedi Order during the last years of the Galactic Republic. Pix and her fellow Jedi were commissioned as officers in the Grand Army of the Republic as a result of the Clone Wars—a pan-galactic civil war between the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Promoted to the rank of Jedi Commander, Pix served alongside her master, Jedi General Tyr, until he was killed by a suicide bomber on the Sephi homeworld of Thustra. As the situation grew dire, Grand Master Yoda attempted to end the conflict through diplomacy, leaving Pix in command of the clone army while he negotiated with King Alaric in person.

Despite the parlay between their leaders, the Sephi forces gathered just beyond the range of the Republic command center's defenses, leading Clone Commander Clutch to believe that they were preparing to launch another attack. The clone advised Pix to strike first, but the Padawan was under strict orders from Yoda to not engage the Sephi in his absence. Later on, she was led to believe that Alaric betrayed the truce by having Yoda executed. Deceived by Senator Navi, the galactic representative of Thustra, Commander Pix led her clone troopers into battle, attempting to overtake the enemy and capture Alaric's palace before the Sephi could counterattack the Republic Military.

The Battle of Thustra ultimately galvanized sympathy for the Sephi, fully integrating Thustra and its allies into the Separatist cause despite the Republic's efforts to keep them in line. In the aftermath of the battle, Pix and Yoda returned to Republic capital of Coruscant where they revealed Navi's deception to the Galactic Senate, resulting in the senator's arrest on the charges of conspiracy and treason.
