Biography . A male Talz Thi - Sen was a leader of a secretive tribe of his people on the frozen planet of Orto Plutonia . During the Clone Wars in 22 BBY , both sides , the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems , sent an amount of troops to Orto Plutonia . While the Republic clone troopers tested some speeder bikes , the battle droids of the Separatists attacked the Talz . Thi - Sen took this as a threat to their territory and he counterattacked both sides eliminating the clone troopers as well as the battle droids and they wiped out both . However the attack at the Republic outpost brought , on behalf of the neighboring moon Pantora , an investigation , consisting of Pantoran Chairman Chi Cho and Senator Riyo Chuchi as well as Jedi Knights Obi - Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker . While investigating the massacre of both troops , the Jedi noticed the Talz village where they were greeted by Thi - Sen ' s aide , Medcha Wanto , and brought to the Chieftain ' s hut . There , using a primitive form of communication , Thi - Sen told the Jedi what had happened and that he and his people only wanted to be left alone . The Jedi organized a meeting for him and Pantorian representatives , and Thi - Sen was gladdened by the prospect of a peaceful solution , giving Kenobi a bear hug before the Jedi left . Thi - Sen ' s Talz came to the meeting in the wreckage of some destroyed Confederate XT Beetle Transports and politely asked the Pantorans to leave his world . However , Chairman Chi Cho didn ' t want to lose ownership of Orto Plutonia and at the meeting called the Talz trespassers and savages , using the protocol droid C - 3PO to communicate with the Talz . Once again , Thi - Sen said he and his people wanted to live in peace , and asked the Pantorans to pull their people off the planet . Cho , refusing to use diplomacy , deliberately provoked and offended the Talz . Thi - Sen stated that there would be war if the Pantorans didn ' t do as he asked , and Cho accepted the challenge . With war officially declared , the Jedi left for the Republic base to request that Senator Chuchi make contact with the Pantoran Assembly to declare Cho out of order and strip him of power . Thi - Sen rallied his massive army and led his people against the Pantorans and Republic . Engaging the clone troopers assigned to protect the Chairman , Thi - Sen ' s forces quickly overwhelmed the Republic troops , mortally wounding Cho and killing several clone troopers . After the Talz cornered the surviving clones , reinforcements of the Republic arrived in LAAT / i gunships . Chuchi , who had been given authority to negotiate with the Talz by the Pantoran Assembly in the interest of peace , arrived and Thi - Sen chose to stop the attack . Chairman Cho , who had been struck in the back by a spear during the battle , appealed to Senator Chuchi to continue to fight the Talz , proclaiming that it was for the " good " of his people , and was shocked to hear that his authority had been overruled by the Pantoran Assembly , he died shortly thereafter . Chuchi along with C - 3PO approached Thi - Sen and told him that it is a greater sacrifice to live for his people then to die for them . The Senator then offered to concede the sovereignty of Plutonia to the Talz and Thi - Sen agreed . The Republic troops left Orto Plutonia and the Talz were left in peace . Personality and traits .
