Born on the planet Kamino as a Human clone of the bounty hunter Jango Fett , a clone commando served in the Galactic Republic ' s clone army . The commando became a member of a squad that consisted of three other commandos . All four commandos wore " Katarn " - class commando armor that featured the same blue and white color scheme . Mission to Ord Mantell . During the year 21 . 51 BBY , six months after the start of the Clone Wars on the planet Geonosis — where the Republic fought the Confederacy of Independent Systems — the commando and his squad were sent to the planet Ord Mantell for a retrieval mission . Nine Trandoshan bounty hunters had intercepted a package from the world of Malastare that was meant to be a gift for Supreme Chancellor Palpatine of the Republic . The bounty hunters planned to sell it to the Confederacy . Alongside another squad , the commando and his brothers were to retrieve the package at all costs . After being briefed on the mission by an Advanced Recon Commando , the two squads were dispatched to Ord Mantell ' s surface . Locating the bounty hunters in a city , they found the street the Trandoshans were using and blocked it off with a broken down treaded vehicle . The commando donned civilian clothing and proceeded to work on the vehicle ' s engine . When the bounty hunters arrived on the scene in three speeders , with three hunters to a craft , they were unable to continue their journey due to the roadblock . With the trap set , a missile launcher - toting commando from the second squad opened fire on the first speeder , destroying it and its passengers . The disguised commando immediately ripped off his disguise and raised his blaster to attack the second speeder , but the Trandoshan in the back seat , who was carrying the package , stood up and shot the commando with a wrist blaster , killing him . The commando ' s squad - mates fared no better , as they were quickly killed by a passenger in the third speeder . The other squad also lost three of its members , leaving RC - 1013 as the last surviving member of the mission . Ultimately , RC - 1013 retrieved the package and the mission was a success . The package was then sent to Palpatine , who dismissed the gift as a worthless trinket . Personality and traits . Like all clone troopers , the commando stood at 1 . 83 meters . When the skirmish on Ord Mantell began , the commando was quick to rip off his disguise and aim his rifle , but his reflexes were outmatched by the Trandoshan that killed him . The Advanced Recon Commando who briefed the commando expected the commando and other clones to be fully ready to die for the package that they were to retrieve . Equipment . The commando utilized " Katarn " - class commando armor that featured a blue and white color pattern which matched the armor of the others in his squad . The commando wielded a DC - 17m Interchangeable Weapon System which was configured as a blaster rifle . Behind the scenes .
