CT - 782 CT - 782 was a clone trooper who served in the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars . He received the nickname " Hevy " due to his being a heavy weapons expert . He regularly used the Z - 6 rotary blaster , which was the heaviest weapon available to a clone ground trooper . Hevy trained on Kamino along with the rest of Domino Squad . He was killed in action during a battle against the Confederacy of Independent Systems on the Rishi moon . He sacrificed himself by exploding the outpost on Rishi to warn the command of the invasion of Kamino by the Separatists . Biography . Training on Kamino . CT - 782 was born on Kamino along with all other clone trooper s . He served in the Grand Army of the Republic ' s Domino Squad , a unit of clone cadet s during the early days of the Clone Wars . His fellow squad members were Cutup , Echo , Fives , and Droidbait . The Domino Squad members were trained at Tipoca City , Kamino ' s capital , under Siniteen bounty hunter Bric . Bric , fellow Arcona bounty hunter El - Les , and Jedi Master Shaak Ti oversaw the clone cadets practice for their final test , the Citadel Challenge . The test placed the squad head - to - head with battle droid s . While the battle droids ' s weapons , as well as their own weapons , were non lethal , no clone could be injured during one of the tests . Despite this , all clone cadet squads had to work as a team to successfully pass their test . For CT - 782 and Domino Squad , however , the team rarely got along with each other . During the final practice test , Domino Squad were engaging droids when CT - 782 broke away from the group . Watching the group , Bric , El - Les , and Shaak Ti took concern of Domino ' s Squad ' s recklessness . Bric expressed the group ' s inability to work as a team and wanted to send them to Tipoca City ' s maintenance crew , where rejected clones went . As the combat simulation progressed , CT - 782 kept disobeying orders and assumed the squads leadership as his own . However , the droid forces began to overwhelm the clones , causing the squad to fail . With their practice test a failure , the crestfallen Domino Squad returned to their sleeping barracks . Once there , CT - 782 took off his training helmet and threw it on the ground in frustration . He then told the his squad members that he was getting the job done because he was " thinking like an ARC trooper " . When Echo , who had a bad habit of repeating orders after they were already given , reminded him that ARC troopers follow orders , CT - 782 mocked him by asking Echo to repeat himself . The two engaged in a brief hand - to - hand brawl until the fight was broken up by Bric . Bric berated the cadets by stating that they might stand a chance out in the field if they started fighting droids as much as they fought each other . Echo immediately acknowledged his master chief and apologized . CT - 782 , however , was not as easily intimidated . He then expressed his opinion on having a Jedi oversee his training instead of a paid mercenary . Bric harshly reminded the clone that Jedi didn ' t have the time to train cadets like him . The bounty hunter then told the whole squad that since they could not work together as a team , they were all a waste of his time . The Final Test . The next day , Bric and El - Les rallied Domino Squad , as well as other clone cadet squads , for a meeting on a hanger platform . A few Advanced Recon Commando troopers , led by Clone Commander Colt , followed by Havoc , were to watch the clone cadet ' s final simulator test . If one passed the test , the troopers within the squad would become battle - ready clone soldiers . Colt took interest with Bravo Squad , a unit of clone cadets that passed certain tests in " ARC trooper time " . CT - 782 and Domino Squad watched as the Bravo Squad passed the simulation with flying colors . Unimpressed , CT - 782 claimed that they were better than Bravo Squad . When the simulator began for Domino Squad , they managed to pass certain parts of the simulation faster than their usual rate . As the other clones were taking cover , CT - 782 cleared a path for them by destroying droids with his Z - 6 rotary blaster cannon . When Droidbait broke away from the rest of the squad , a droid shot him in the back . Cutup noticed this and yelled for CT - 782 , though he wanted to leave his injured teammate behind and head for the citadel . Colt and El - Les noticed them leaving Droidbait , which forced them to stop the simulation test , causing CT - 782 and Domino Squad to automatically fail the test . Rise of the Domino Squad . That night CT - 782 attempted to leave the clone army after his team failed to pass the final test . Before he could however , he was approached by 99 , a malformed maintenance clone . The deformed clone told CT - 782 that , despite the clone cadet ' s differences , he should work together with his team . Since 99 was never given a chance to prove himself worthy as a clone trooper , CT - 782 had that chance to do so . Throughout the conversation , 99 kept calling CT - 782 , " Hevy " , which was his personal nickname for the clone . Confused at his broken brother calling him by an actual name , CT - 782 told 99 to stop calling him by that name . To CT - 782 , all clones were numbers and never had actual names . 99 disagreed , claiming that CT - 782 always had a name . Shaak Ti allowed Domino Squad to retake the test , since she and El - Les believed in them . When the squad got ready the next day , CT - 782 was not among them . Worried that without their fellow teammate they will fail again , CT - 782 showed up . He then told Domino Squad that this time they will pass and that his name was now " Hevy " . Bric joined Sakk Ti and El - Les to watch the newly named Hevy and Domino Squad participate in the simulation test for the last time . This time , however , Domino Squad got further into the test . When Hevy , Echo , Fives , Cutup , and Droidbait reached the bottom of the citadel , they noticed that the their ascension cable in their belts were missing . Before the test , Bric took the cables from their belts to challenge the cadets . Yet , the clones improvised and decided to climb the blaster turrets that ascended up toward the citadel ' s roof . Hevy successfully climbed the turrets and lifted the pole on top of the citadel , completing the test . Due to them working as a team and completing their final test , Hevy and the rest of Domino Squad were allowed to become clone troopers . They each received their own medals , as a symbol for their graduation from clone cadet . Hevy then thanked 99 for giving him the help he needed , which brought Domino Squad together . 99 then complemented Hevy on his leadership . But Hevy reminded 99 that they were all a team and told 99 how lucky he was to have a brother like him . As they said goodbye Hevy assured him that they will see each other again while proceeding to give 99 his medal . Attack on the moon of Rishi . After his training on Kamino , Hevy was given his first off - world assignment . Along with Echo and Cutup , he was stationed at a listening post located on a moon off the planet Rishi , under command of Sergeant O ' Niner . Hevy was soon joined by Fives , Droidbait , and trooper Nub . As part of their assignments , they maintained the listening post to warn the Galactic Republic of any impending Separatist attacks on Kamino . Hevy was disappointed that his first assignment was not on the actual battle field . He usually passed the time by arm wrestling with Cutup or Fives . While Hevy and the rookie troopers were on duty in the control room , Sergeant O ' Niner entered the room and alerted the clone troopers of an inspection that would soon begin . Unbeknownst to the group of clone troopers , however , Confederate General Grievous had sent BX - series droid commando s in " Droch " - class boarding ships to attack the listening post . Grievous , alone with the Sith apprentice Asajj Ventress , intended to invade Kamino to end the production of the Republic ' s clone troopers . The Republic listening post on the moon of Rishi had an " all clear signal , " which , if turned off , would alert a nearby Republic fleet , so Grievous ordered his droids to leave the signal untouched . Meanwhile , the clone were alerted by a meteor shower that was approaching . To protect the base , the clones raised the listening post ' s shield . The meteor shower in reality , was several Separatist boarding ships used by the commando droids . The droids left their transports and began their attack on the base . In the command center , the clones tried to contact the deck officer clone CT - 327 but were unable to reach him . CT - 327 had already been killed by the commando droids . O ' Niner ordered Droidbait and Nub to search for him . However , the two clones encountered the droids at the base ' s entrance and were fired upon . Alerted to the droid ' s presence , O ' Niner ordered Hevy , to sound the listening post ' s alarm , but he soon found that the droids had deactivated the beacon . After the commando droids shot and killed O ' Niner , the remaining clone troopers - Hevy , Echo , Fives , and Cutup - evacuated the command center by going through the ventilation shaft , which led them outside the listening post . Exiting the ventilation shaft , the four troops , who already felt helpless without their commanding sergeant , were further disheartened when a Rishi eel attacked and devoured Cutup , leaving Hevy , Echo , and Fives to defend themselves . Taking back the Base . Eventually , the remaining rookie clone troopers noticed a Republic shuttle , flown by Commander Cody and Captain Rex . The clone officer s had arrived for the inspection of the listening post but were unaware of the droid attack . Hevy managed to warn the officers by sending up a droid attack flare . The clones soon met Cody and Rex after they narrowly escaped a droid ambush . After meeting the clones for the first time , Rex demanded that the rookies remove their helmets to verify that they were clones . After the three rookie clone troopers obeyed and removed their protective headgear , a Rishi moon eel appeared and began to attack them . This time , Rex used his blaster to kill it with one shot to the eye , a feat that impressed the rookies . Confronting the rookie clones , Rex referred to them as " shinie s , " a derogatory term referring to the trooper ' s spotless armor that had not yet seen battle . Rex , nonetheless , found the group to be unique and took interest in Hevy ' s confidence , as well as stating that " there was hope for them yet . " Both Rex and Cody gave the rookie troopers each their own blasters before Rex suggested a plan to retake the listening post . The group of clone trooper hid near the entrance of the base while Rex impersonated a commando droid unit 26 by using the droid ' s decapitated head . The clone captain successfully tricked the commando droids to open the the listening post ' s main door , allowing the clone troopers to ambush the remainder of the commando droids inside the base . Upon entering the command center , the clones defeated the droid units , including their vibroblade - wielding leader . Destroying the Base . Their minor victory was cut short , however when the clone troopers noticed that General Grievous ' fleet had arrived above the moon . Due to the lack of communication from the commando droids , Grievous sent more battle droid s to listening post . The clones , inside the command center of the listening post were unable to turn off the " all clear " signal because the droids had hot - wired it . Soon a droid landing craft descended through the atmosphere and landed near the listening post . With the battle droid reinforcements outnumbering the clone troopers , Rex ordered the complete destruction of the base , to the surprise of the rookie troops . They soon realized that if they destroyed the base , the " all clear " signal would stop and the Republic would be alerted to the Separatist attack . Echo offered the use of highly explosive liquid tibanna , stored in plunk droids . While Rex and Echo went to retrieve the specific droids , Cody , Hevy , and Fives grabbed weaponry from the listening post ' s supply room . When the battle droids reached the entrance of the base , they ordered for the doors to open up , only to find Hevy pointing a Z - 6 rotary blaster cannon right at them . Hevy , Cody , and Fives opened fire on the invading battle droid forces , buying time for Rex to wire three plunk droids together . Unexpectedly , the remote activator to detonate the tibanna inside the plunk droids did not function properly . Hevy offered to stay behind and correct the problem , enabling the others to exit the listening post through the ventilation shaft . Death . Hevy kept trying to link the remote activator to the bombs as the droids got nearer to his position . Realizing that he didn ' t have enough time , Hevy quickly hid himself from the approaching battle droids . Assuming that the clones fled , the Separatist droids once again claimed the listening post as their own . Outside , Cody , Rex , Echo and Fives noticed that Hevy was still inside the listening post . Rex tried to contact Hevy via comlink , but Hevy told the clone captain that he had to detonate the explosives manually . The clone trooper then started firing at the B1 battle droid s after a group of them spotted him . Unwilling to accept Hevy ' s decision , Rex and the other clones ran back to rescue him . Inside the station , more battle droids approached the command center . Hevy , was then shot in the shoulder by one of the droids . Outnumbered and wounded , Hevy still continued to fight to the command center , ignoring the pleas of the others through his comlink . Hevy ' s Z - 6 rotary blaster eventually ran out of ammunition . He tossed the disabled weapon at the battle droids before being injured in the leg by the droids . Upon Hevy ' s regaining of consciousness , a battle droid questioned whether or not to take Hevy as a prisoner . Replying that he did not take prisoners , Hevy activated the tibanna explosives , sacrificing himself and destroying the listening post along with the droids inside . Legacy . Hevy ' s sacrifice wasn ' t in vain . With the listening post destroyed , the " all clear " signal indeed shut off and the Republic was alerted to the presence of the General Grievous ' fleet of separatist frigate s . When the Republic arrived , Grievous was forced to retreat as his fleet was outnumbered . Meanwhile , the remaining clone troopers witnessed the destruction of the listening post . Echo commented that Hevy always did hate that base . The clones were then picked up by a LAAT / i gunship that just arrived . Onboard the Republic attack cruiser " Resolute " , Jedi Generals Obi - Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker awarded Echo and Fives each with medals for their service and honored Hevy ' s bravery and sacrifice . Echo and Fives were then brought into Rex ' s own clone unit , the 501st Legion . Unfortunately , the Separatists would launch another attack on the cloning world of Kamino later in the war . The Republic , after intercepting a transmission between Grievous and Asajj Ventress , traveled to Kamino to defend it against the upcoming attack . The 501st Legion were among the many thousand of clone soldiers sent to defend their home , including Echo and Fives . As the two were walking down a hallway in Tipoca City , they ran into 99 . 99 welcomed them back , but was saddened to hear that Hevy perished on the Rishi moon outpost . He then revealed to Echo and Fives that Hevy gave him his graduation medal before departing Kamino , much to the surprise of the other clones . Grievous and Ventress soon led their attack on Kamino starting with Tipoca City . Echo and Fives destroyed attacking Aqua droid s from a sniping position , where they were soon joined by 99 bringing them ammunition . They retreated to the barracks and were joined by Rex and Cody . A platoon of battle droid s soon attacked the barracks , and by having clone cadet s strike from ambush , the troopers succeed in destroying all of their attackers , but 99 is killed as he tries to get more ammunition for his brothers . After the battle , both Echo and Fives are promoted to ARC troopers by Captain Rex for their initiative and bravery .
