Kasmiri The Kasmiri was the personal starship of the Kalleran scoundrel Janus Kasmir during the Clone Wars . It was stolen by the Jedi Padawan Caleb Dume while he fled clone trooper s who were trying to kill him during the execution of Clone Protocol 66 . History . During the last year of the galaxy - wide conflict known as the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems , the " Kasmiri " was owned by the Kalleran criminal Janus Kasmir . During that time , a battle broke out on Kaller , Kasmir ' s homeworld in the Outer Rim Territories . The Confederates were soon defeated , and the two Jedi who had led the Republic ' s forces , Jedi Master Depa Billaba and her Padawan , Caleb Dume , were introduced to Kasmir before they left to sleep under the star s with their loyal Clone trooper s . Kasmir , meanwhile , traveled to Plateau City , where the " Kasmiri " docked in the city ' s spaceport . Several planet ary rotations later , Kasmir found Dume in an alleyway having survived being betrayed by his troopers — though his master had not . Because Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine was secretly a Sith Lord and had transformed the Republic into the First Galactic Empire — with himself as Emperor — and ordered the extermination of the Jedi Order . Kasmir brought Dume to the " Kasmiri " where he washed and slept for a full day , before receiving a message from the Jedi Temple on the Imperial capital of Coruscant , calling him back to the temple . Kasmir refused to take Dume to the city - planet and told Dume that if he wanted to survive the Imperial troops and bounty hunter s hunting him , he needed to learn how to steal and cheat to survive . Just then , two clone troopers arrived to search the " Kasmiri " for Padawan Dume . Kasmir exited the ship to try and reason with the armored troops , while Dume took Kasmir ' s advice to heart : He entered the Coruscant subsector into the " Kasmiri ' s " navigation computer , blasted away from the spaceport and entered hyperspace . Soon thereafter , as Dume neared Coruscant , he received a message from Jedi Master Obi - Wan Kenobi telling all Jedi who received the message to stay away from Coruscant at all costs ; the summons to the temple was a trap . Dume realized he had made a mistake as he exited hyperspace in orbit over Coruscant : He was instantly surrounded by Imperial ARC - 170 starfighters that demanded his surrender . Dume didn ' t respond in the time allotted to him by the clone pilots to surrender , so they opened fire on the " Kasmiri " . The " Kasmiri ' s " shield held under the onslaught , while Dume performed evasive maneuvers and destroyed two of the Imperial fighters . Dume steered the ship clear of the debris and fled into hyperspace — ending up back in Plateau City , because he knew nowhere else to go . After landing , Kasmir found and ran Dume off for stealing his ship . Several months passed and Kasmir continued to utilize the " Kasmiri " in his criminal work all over Kaller , before he again ran across Dume . Kasmir brought the former Padawan aboard his ship and subsequently hired Dume as his partner in his next job . Kasmir transformed Dume from an obvious Jedi to into more of a bounty hunter before traveling to a Kalleran complex at the dead of night to steal a shipment of valuable IG - RM bodyguard and enforcer droid s . The duo smuggled several of the droid s to the " Kasmiri " before they were caught by a Kalleran official , Gamut Key . Kasmir turned Dume over to Key in order for Key to claim the bounty placed on all surviving Jedi , and for Kasmir to be able to escape with the IG - RM droids . However , Kasmir had lied : he hadn ' t betrayed Dume , his friend . Kasmir broke Dume out of prison with one of the thug droids , and the trio ran back to the " Kasmiri " and quickly took off . Later , they traveled to another planet where they sold the droids to finance Kasmir ' s next scheme . As time went by , the criminal duo traveled to many different worlds aboard the " Kasmiri " , while Grey and Styles , Dume ' s former clone soldiers , pursued them across the galaxy in order to bring Dume to " justice . " Kasmir piloted the " Kasmiri " to the ocean planet Lahn where Kasmir had arranged a trade : stolen goods for stolen goods . However , Dume and Kasmir had yet to steal their goods , so Dume went to talk with their business partner while Kasmir went to acquire the goods for the exchange . However , as Kasmir loaded the goods onto the " Kasmiri " , Grey found Kasmir and put him under arrest for harboring Dume , a fugitive of the Empire .
