Cato Parasitti / Legends Cato Parasitti was a Clawdite female bounty hunter from Zolan who operated during the Clone Wars . As a changeling , Parasitti used her natural abilities to make a career as a spy and assassin , charging a massive rate and quickly becoming one of the leaders in her field of work . She employed holograph ic technology alongside her advanced shape - shifting skills to make her impersonations nearly flawless . A member of the galaxy ' s criminal underworld , Parasitti frequently worked with the bounty hunter Cad Bane , often subcontracting assignments or hiring assistance for him as needed . On one such endeavor in 22 BBY , Parasitti worked with Bane to steal a Jedi holocron from the Jedi Temple on Coruscant , as part of a job from the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Sidious . She adopted the guise of the late Jedi Master Ord Enisence to infiltrate the Jedi Archives , acting as an inside agent to help Bane and his techno - service droid , Todo 360 , gain access to the heavily guarded Holocron Vault . Posing as Enisence and then as Chief Librarian Jocasta Nu , Parasitti was able to neutralize the Temple ' s security systems so that Bane and Todo 360 could reach the Holocron Vault . When a Jedi Padawan , Ahsoka Tano , uncovered her deception , Parasitti attempted to escape , wielding Nu ' s lightsaber against Tano . However , Parasitti lacked Nu ' s superior talents in lightsaber combat , and she was defeated in the ensuing duel . Before being taken away for incarceration , Parasitti offered the Jedi information on Bane ' s next target : Bolla Ropal , the keeper of the Jedi Order ' s Kyber memory crystal . By 20 BBY , she was out of custody and , at one point , visited the Mos Eisley Cantina on Tatooine . Biography . Hunter from Zolan . The Clawdite female Cato Parasitti lived during the final decades of the Galactic Republic ' s rule , hailing from Zolan , her species ' homeworld in the Mid Rim . Born as a changeling , she used her natural proficiency in shape - shifting to make a career for herself out of bounty hunting . Operating in the criminal underworld , she became known as one of the galaxy ' s best spies and more lethal assassins , allowing her to charge a high rate , to the point that some considered it astronomical . As was the case with other contemporaries in her field of work , her only loyalty became her focus on credits . She often operated with another leading mercenary , Cad Bane , for whom she would subcontract assignments or enlist extra assistance as needed . By the time of the Clone Wars , in which the Republic fought with the Confederacy of Independent Systems for galactic supremacy , Parasitti was considered to be one of the leaders in her line of work . Career as a bounty hunter . Work with Cad Bane . In 22 BBY , the first year of the war , Bane contacted Parasitti to enlist her services for a job on the galactic capital , Coruscant . She proceeded to Bane ' s apartment in a seedy hotel in the Coruscant underworld , being greeted at the door by Bane ' s techno - service droid , Todo 360 . After setting down her blaster rifle , Parasitti joined Bane at a computer terminal to examine an intelligence file on Bolla Ropal , a Jedi Master who would be their next target once they had completed their first objective for their client , the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Sidious . To Parasitti ' s surprise , she learned that the Sith Lord had hired Bane to steal a Jedi holocron from the Jedi Temple . Although Sidious had provided holograph ic schematics of the Temple and data on its security systems , Bane ' s infiltration plan required an inside agent . Parasitti was to thus use her shape - shifting abilities to pose as a Jedi and infiltrate the Jedi Archives , from where she would be able to assist Bane and Todo 360 in entering the heavily guarded Holocron Vault . Bane then showed her to the body of the late Jedi Master Ord Enisence , whom he had killed in a previous job for Sidious and whose identity she would assume to enter the Temple . Once Parasitti had adopted the Skrilling Jedi ' s form , Bane handed her an ear - comlink that they would be using to keep in communication throughout the operation . She proceeded to the Jedi Temple and , with Enisence ' s likeness , was able to gain access to the Jedi Archives . As she passed by the main rotunda on her way to the Archive Library ' s Fourth Hall , Parasitti was intercepted by Padawan Ahsoka Tano , who had been assigned to guard duty at the Archives and was looking for someone to help . When Parasitti was commed by Bane — who was with Todo 360 on the Temple exterior , waiting for her to get into place — she impatiently spurned Tano ' s repeated offers for assistance . Although her outburst caught the attention of Chief Librarian Jocasta Nu , Parasitti continued on to a computer and accessed the Temple security systems . She soon found a weak point in the Temple ' s energy shield and transmitted its location to Todo 360 , then briefly jammed the local scanners so that Bane and his droid could bypass the defensive shield and enter the central ventilation system . As Bane and Todo 360 descended into the main vent shaft , Parasitti guided Todo 360 to the control board for the series of fans blocking their way , but notified the pair — too late — of the secondary motion - sensing security switch . She was able to remotely deactivate the fans from her computer terminal just in time , saving Bane and Todo 360 from pulverization in the spinning blades . While continuing to direct Bane through the ventilation system , Parasitti was interrupted by Jocasta Nu , who was informing all Jedi in the Archives that the Temple was being placed on high alert . After thanking Nu for the notification , Parasitti attacked her and knocked her unconscious , dragging her inert body into an aisle out of sight . Morphing to mirror Nu ' s appearance , Parasitti lifted her lightsaber from her person , then returned to her seat at her terminal . Presently , Bane informed Parasitti that they had reached the vent shaft above the Holocron Vault . She examined the security systems and managed to disable the grid of laser sensors protecting the Vault , granting Bane and Todo 360 access to the safe . Just as Parasitti detected that two Jedi were heading toward Bane ' s position in the vents , Tano — having learned from Grand Master Yoda about the potential presence of an enemy agent inside the Temple — overheard her conversation with Bane . When Tano confronted her , Parasitti activated Nu ' s lightsaber and initiated a lightsaber duel with the Padawan , lashing out with a flurry of strikes before heading to escape . However , she lacked Tano ' s training in lightsaber combat , and as Tano pursued her through the holobook shelves of the Archive Library , she was consequently forced onto the defensive . Breaking off from engaging Tano , Parasitti headed out of the Fourth Hall , making her way back toward the rotunda . While glancing over her shoulder to check her pursuer ' s progress , Parasitti was outmaneuvered by the Padawan , who used the Force to cut off her escape by telekinetically toppling a chair in her path . Held at lightsaber - point , Parasitti surrendered and , upon being interrogated , revealed that Bane ' s objective laid in the Holocron Vault . Tano handcuffed Parasitti and escorted the bounty hunter to the Vault , being joined along the way by Nu , who had recovered consciousness . Bane , meanwhile , had made off with the holocron and escaped from the Temple , as Parasitti and her Jedi captors discovered upon seeing that the holocron was missing from the Vault . As Tano was about to lead her away , Parasitti stopped , deciding to point the Jedi to Bane ' s next target : Bolla Ropal . Master Ropal was the keeper of the Jedi Order ' s Kyber memory crystal , a record of all known Force - sensitive infants in the galaxy . While Tano left with her Master , Anakin Skywalker , to seek out Ropal in the Devaron system , Master Obi - Wan Kenobi saw to Parasitti ' s imprisonment and spearheaded the search for Bane on Coruscant . Parasitti ' s disclosure of Bane ' s target earned her the ire of her colleague , who swore to return the favor when Skywalker and Tano intercepted him at Devaron . By 20 BBY , two years after her detainment by the Jedi , Parasitti was out of custody . At one point while on the desert world of Tatooine , she visited the Mos Eisley Cantina in the Mos Eisley spaceport , sitting at a table with other patrons . She exchanged a laugh with several other customers after another guest , Asajj Ventress , killed a bounty hunter who tried to talk her up ; Ventress ' s response was to run one of her lightsabers through the bounty hunter ' s stomach , saying she was " not much of a talker . " Parasitti also patronized the cantina on another occasion , having a drink at the bar and being served by the 2 - 1B medical droid bartender . Personality and traits . In her native form , Cato Parasitti had green skin and yellow eyes , standing at 1 . 79 meters and weighing 52 kilograms . An accomplished bounty hunter , she exploited her natural talents as a changeling to advance her career in the criminal underworld , becoming known for her duplicity and unscrupulousness . A convincing liar , she often prepared to strike her targets by first spying on them to discern their weaknesses . She established herself as one of the galaxy ' s more lethal assassins , becoming attached to the financial reward of her missions and working for anyone who could afford her sizable rate , though her affiliation — aside from her sole loyalty to credits — was often only to herself . She subsequently became an associate of another veteran mercenary , Cad Bane , who shared her penchant for credits . Although she knew of Bane ' s reputation for ruthlessness , she did not fear him like others did ; being a shape - shifter , she could easily disappear into the crowd when needed . Parasitti kept a tight hold on her identity , telling those who inquired after her name that it was none of their business . Despite initially believing , like Bane , that breaking into the Jedi Temple was impossible , she could not pass up the opportunity to disguise herself as a Jedi Master , being able to walk undetected among the Jedi . While on the job , she kept a cool head under pressure , managing to deactivate the fans in the ventilation shaft before they could kill Bane and Todo 360 . She did not back down when confronting a Jedi , Ahsoka Tano , though the Padawan ultimately defeated her . After Bane escaped on his own , Parasitti , furious with being left behind in Jedi custody , tipped off the Jedi to his next target , a decision that earned her a promise for payback from her comrade . Skills and abilities . Cato Parasitti ' s abilities as a shape - shifter were quite advanced : she was able to morph her likeness into that of another individual after physical contact , though her shape - shifting was limited to other humanoid forms . Besides imitating Humans such as Jocasta Nu , Parasitti succeeded in altering her form to that of a Skrilling , Ord Enisence . In the latter case , she was able to avoid being uncovered by his fellow Jedi , with an outburst of impatience being the only potential error to her mimicry . Besides infiltration , Parasitti was skilled in fighting , using acrobatic somersaults to supplement her efforts against Ahsoka Tano . Yet she lacked lightsaber training and was thus at a disadvantage when dueling Tano . During their fight , Parasitti mainly concentrated on defensive moves , with her attacks coming across as untrained and overdone . She was subsequently defeated by the Padawan . Equipment . Cato Parasitti customarily wore a helmet with night vision lenses that only partially covered her head , often wearing it even when not on the job . She used a set of armor for her chest , arms , and shins that she scavenged from a captured fugitive , while she also employed extra thigh padding for swoop riding . A pair of utility pouches held various equipment above her waist . Parasitti utilized holographic technology to supplement her shape - shifting , allowing her to imitate clothing such as Jedi robes in addition to her bodily alterations . For weaponry , she wielded an LL - 30 blaster pistol and a blaster rifle of an ancient model that was commonly used in the underworld . Behind the scenes .
