Clone Commander 3714 , nicknamed " Fil , " was born on the planet Kamino to be commissioned for the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars , a galaxy - wide conflict between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems . Fil was assigned to recently promoted Mon Calamari Jedi Knight Nahdar Vebb , and served under him in several battles during the Clone Wars . In 22 BBY , Fil was the leader of a clone trooper squad that participated in a mission to the third moon of the Outer Rim world of Vassek . During the mission , Fil and his squad accompanied Vebb . Vebb ' s former Jedi Master , Kit Fisto , joined Vebb and his men to capture Trade Federation Viceroy Nute Gunray , who had recently been saved from Republic captivity by the Dark Acolyte Asajj Ventress , laid a trap for the Jedi in a building on the Vassek moon . Jedi Master Luminara Unduli and Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano , who had been escorting Gunray to the galactic capital of Coruscant aboard " Venator " - class Star Destroyer " Tranquility " before the viceroy escaped , told Fisto that they had tracked Gunray to the Vassek system . Fil ordered fellow clone troopers Bel and Niner to look after their " Nu " - class attack shuttle , while he went with the rest of the squad and followed the Jedi into the castle . Fisto denied Fil ' s use of a thermal detonator to open the lair ' s door , and instead pressed a secret stone that activated the entrance . After they entered the castle , the group made their way to a room called the " sanctum overlook , " where a faint voice was heard . A number of B1 battle droids were talking to Gunray , who , unbeknownst to the Jedi and clones , was in holographic form in order to lure the Jedi into the trap . Once the group dispatched the droids , however , Vebb used the Force to turn Gunray ' s chair around , revealing the hologram of the Viceroy . After Gunray activated a homing beacon near his chair , his hologram faded away . Dooku contacted the Jedi , telling the group that while Gunray was unavailable for capture , he offered them an unnamed alternative prize . Fisto and Vebb knew that they had been tricked into the lair , and it was some form of a trap . Fil was worried about the current situation after the group walked down a dark hallway . Upon witnessing Kaleesh statues and replacement cyborg masks , Fisto indicated that they were in the lair of the Confederate General Grievous . The group soon realized that Grievous would arrive at any moment , and that an opportunity to capture the cyborg general — which could turn the tide of the war — had presented itself . Death . After Grievous landed in the castle ' s secret hangar , he was ambushed by the group . Fil and his men drew their blasters , but Grievous did not comply with Fisto ' s demands for surrender and ignited four lightsabers . The Jedi managed to contain the former Kaleesh warlord , severing one of his cybernetic hands . Fil ordered his men to use grappling hooks to hold Grievous , while Vebb and Fisto tried to finish Grievous off . Grievous released himself from the clones , but Fisto severed Grievous ' s cyborg body in half from the waist down . The cyborg general fled from the area and entered the lair ' s secret command center . The battle with Grievous had resulted in the loss of two clone troopers , leaving only Fil and one last trooper alongside the Jedi . Fil and the other survivors tried to flee from the castle , but Grievous trapped them by shutting the outer doors . Fil contacted Bel and Niner , who were guarding their shuttle , and ordered them to contact their fleet , which was near the Inner Rim planet of Bestine IV , for more clone trooper reinforcements . However , one of Grievous ' s IG - 100 MagnaGuards used a missile launcher to kill the clones . In the command center , Grievous revealed a trap to the surviving Republic squad and opened a molten incinerator pit , which was under Fil and one remaining clone trooper . Fil and the remaining trooper fell into the pit ; the other clone was killed , but the commander fired his grappling hook , and with the help of Vebb and Fisto , managed to save himself . Grievous then decided to release his pet roggwart , Gor , to attack the group . Upon seeing Gor , Fil fired his blaster pistol at the beast ' s head , which was deflected from Gor ' s head armor . The roggwart disarmed Fisto , and Vebb ordered Fil to shoot and distract Gor while he himself Force Jump ed onto the creature . However , when Vebb stabbed Gor in the back with his lightsaber , Gor used his long tail to lift Fil off the ground . As Gor held onto Fil with his tail , both of the Jedi tried to save the clone commander , but it was too late . Fisto slashed at the roggwart ' s face with his lightsaber ; Fil was slammed onto the floor by Gor and was instantly killed on impact . Eventually , Vebb was murdered at the hands of Grievous , and soon the cyborg fought Fisto , though the Jedi Master escaped and departed the moon . Personality and traits .
