Tion Medon

Tion Medon was a Pau'an male who served as Master of Port Administration for Pau City on the planet Utapau. Holding the position for over two centuries prior to the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Medon was loyal to the Republic in spite of Utapau's neutrality in that conflict. He became an unofficial leader with the arrival of General Grievous of the Separatists, who had his droids execute other members of the governing Utapaun Committee. Medon served the Separatists while Utapau hosted the Separatist Council, although he secretly supported a resistance movement.

In 19 BBY, the Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi arrived on Utapau in search of Grievous. Medon met with the Jedi in Pau City, discretely confirmed that Grievous was on Utapau, and also provided an overview of the Separatist Droid Army's presence. Kenobi instructed Medon to have his people take shelter and prepare any warriors for battle, and the administrator spread word of the Republic's imminent attack. Medon coordinated the resistance's collaboration with the Grand Army of the Republic, and together they were victorious against Grievous. However, the Republic forces occupied Utapau shortly afterward, and Medon was one of the first Utapauns arrested, with his fate afterwards unknown.
