Tak - tak Tak - tak was a male Whiphid Padawan who studied in the Jedi Order during the Clone Wars . Biography . Tak - tak was a member of the Jedi Order and part of the Bergruutfa Clan . Clone Wars . In 20 BBY , Tak - tak was traveling aboard a Mon Calamari starship along with a group of other young Padawans and the Jedi Master , Quarmall . While in transit , their ship was attacked by General Grievous and a Separatist fleet . With its engines heavily damaged , the crew could do nothing but defend their ship . Despite their efforts , the Mon Calamari crew were cut down by boarding parties of B1 battle droids , with Grievous following close behind . Quarmall destroyed many of the droids who attacked him , but he was eventually surrounded and confronted by Grievous . The general discussed the possibility of dueling Quarmall , but claimed that he had grown tired of killing Jedi and ordered him killed by the droids instead . The droids turned their weapons on him and blasted the Jedi , seemingly killing him — unknown to all , Quarmall had survived , but would not resurface until years later . Grievous was brought further into the ship by his droids , stepping over the bodies of fallen Mon Calamari on the way . There he found a closed room , and within it , Tak - tak and his fellow Padawans , including Banz and Allara . Grievous ignited his lightsaber and took the Padawans as captives . In Captivity . Soon after , Grievous and the Trade Federation conquered the planet of Gentes and its moon , Belsus . After a brief and one - sided battle , the native Ugnaughts were captured and forced to convert their own factories for use by the Confederacy of Independent Systems . The Padawans arrived on Belsus aboard a C - 9979 landing craft , with B1 ' s guarding them closely . Though Tak - tak and the other Padawans worried over their fate , Allara was stoic about their situation , and Banz told the others to bury their fear and face the future with courage . The younglings were then brought to meet Grievous once more , on a balcony overlooking the city . Grievous then informed them that they were to become warriors for him , trying to convince them that this fate was not that different than that of being a Jedi . Allara , however , knew that this meant they would become servants of the Sith , and told the cyborg they would never do so . Allara , the strongest in the Force among the Padawans , pulled one of Grievous ' lightsabers to herself , igniting it and destroying the two battle droids beside her . Grievous , amused by her defiance , simply grabbed her arm and knocked the weapon from her grasp . He then carried her to the edge of the balcony and dangled her over the drop , intent on teaching her a lesson . Tak - tak and the others were helpless to do anything but watch . Pointing into the distance , he drew her attention to a domed assembly hall , which he told the Padawans contained the entire surviving Ugnaught population of the city . With a word to a ship in orbit around the moon , Grievous ordered the crew to fire upon the assembly hall , massacring all within . He then asked Allara if she now understood the meaning of his power . Rescue . The Padawans were then sent to a holding cell four stories below the city , where they remained for a time . Allara was determined to escape , however , and rallied her fellow Padawans ' help . She urged them to reach out with the Force , seeking to open the door with their combined powers . Tak - tak didn ' t understand that they were trying to open the door , for which Allara admonished him , but before they could continue trying , one of the stones in the floor moved and revealed a data probe . Allara claimed that she didn ' t sense any danger from the device , so she poked at and spoke to it . The data probe reacted by withdrawing into the floor , which then began to shake a fall apart . Tak - tak believed Allara ' s senses had been wrong , but then an Ugnaught miner appeared from the hole in the floor and motioned for the Padawans to follow him below . They joined him and another Ugnaught in a long , narrow tunnel , escaping from their cell . Levels above , Grievous showed Commander Vulpus his plans for the Padawans . He intended to make them into versions of himself — complete with limb amputation and organ removal — melding their powers in the Force with cybernetic armor similar to his own . He then brought Vulpus to where the Padawans had been held captive , and discovered they were missing , quickly sending a group of B1 battle droids into the tunnel after them . Allara soon discovered their presence , however , and turned to face them . Angry and humiliated , Grievous ordered the Padawans killed immediately . In the face of oncoming blaster fire , Allara used the Force to collapse the tunnel on the battle droids , destroying them and covering their escape . Likely in anticipation of an attack , the Ugnaughts had recently created caverns beneath their city , complete with food , shelter , and water , and it was here they took the rescued Padawans . Their hidden homes were precariously close to flowing magma and the geothermal power plant that fueled the facility above , and many walkways had been erected to provide safe passage . A Zabrak Padawan with the group pointed out that the Ugnaughts believed them to be full Jedi , who could help save them . Allara told the others that the Force does not recognize size , and with a smile , she noted that the Ugnaughts were smaller than even them , which made them seem like heroes . Just as it seemed they were safe , however , Grievous blasted through the rock wall above , furious with the Padawans for betraying the " gift " he had planned for them . He then descended upon them , lightsabers ignited , with battle droids following him into the hidden city . Banz asked Allara what they should do , and she responded simply that they would fight , defending the Ugnaughts who had saved their lives . Allara once more used the Force to throw rocks in the droids ' path , allowing the heroic Ugnaughts to flee . Grievous then confronted the Padawans on the walkway , intent on killing them , until an Ugnaught driving a bulldozer - like machine into the battle , distracting Grievous . The Padawans fled again , running down a path through the rocks and finding themselves at the core of the geothermal plant . When Banz asked Allara where they should go , she replied that they should hide and create a plan , but they realized that they had run out of room to hide , and the bridge ahead of them was now cut off by battle droids . Turning back , they found an eager Grievous behind them , blocking their path . Allara taunted Grievous , saying that he was stooping below himself to kill them . Grievous asked if she was begging for her life , and she responded that she was asking for a chance . Grievous , impressed and amused , tossed her one of his lightsabers , which she caught and ignited . The two began to duel , with Grievous remarking on her concurrent courage and lack of skill , and Allara was quickly disarmed by the superior duelist . He knocked her to the ground and prepared to take her life . Unknown to Tak - tak and the Padawans , three other Jedi had set out on a mission to assassinate Grievous . Jedi Master B ' dard Tone , his Padawan Codi Ty , and lone Padawan Flynn Kybo had been searching for the general in order to put an end to the threat he posed to the galaxy . Kybo and Tone had seen Grievous ' deadly talents up close , with Kybo losing his Master and Tone losing his right arm and the left side of his face . The Jedi Council had forbid this course of action , and told the Jedi they would be expelled from the Order if they pursued it , but the three of them were determined to follow through . With the help of the miners of the Banvhar Combine , who had also suffered the predations of Grievous in the past , the Jedi were able to track Grievous to Belsus and make their move . As they neared the moon , they detected transmissions regarding Padawans , and believed their mission to be compromised . Once they realized that it was in fact a different group of Jedi the Separatists were referring to — Allara and the others — they altered their goals to both kill Grievous and rescue the Padawans . While they could not sense Tak - tak or the others , due to Allara ' s strong connection with the Force , Master Tone was able to easily pick up her location . Finding the Padawans , Kybo jumped in front of Grievous ' lightsaber , deflecting the strike with his own . Tone and Ty joined Kybo , with Tone ordering Ty to take the Padawans to safety . Kybo and Tone began to duel Grievous , attempting to complete their mission to kill him . Taking up the lightsaber Grievous had given her once more , Allara told Ty she would do better than just follow him , and joined Ty in fighting the battle droids in their way . They reached a ladder and hatch , escaping from the underground , but as they ascended , Ty sensed his master ' s death and despaired . Allara urged him to honor Tone ' s final command and continue , pointing out that otherwise his sacrifice would be meaningless . Once in the facility ' s hangar , they found the Banvhar miners defending their ship , overwhelmed and preparing to leave . The Padawans joined the miners aboard their ship , and they quickly fled as the facility detonated around them , Kybo ' s duel with Grievous ending in the ignition of the building ' s fuel supply . Ty told the others that Grievous must have died as well . Return . Ty brought the rescued Padawans back to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant , bringing Allara before the Jedi Council . Ty reported the events on Belsus to the Council , and made it clear that although he believed Grievous to be dead and had rescued the Padawans , he wanted nothing for himself . Allara pleaded for leniency for Ty , but he was prepared to take his exile without regrets . Yoda told Ty he indeed had much to regret , and banned the young Togruta from the Order forever .
