He was hospitalized in the Republic Mobile Surgical Unit 7 , but the local doctors were unable to find a cure for his malady .

Only a short time later , however , CT - 914 was himself killed in a Confederate ambush , before Vondar could apologize to him for his previous way of thinking . Biography . CT - 914 was one of the many clones of the bounty hunter Jango Fett created on the planet Kamino to serve in the Grand Army of the Republic as clone troopers . During his training , CT - 914 developed a strong friendship with fellow trooper CT - 915 , who had been decanted from a cloning tank just after him . The two clones spent all their free time together , and their relationship grew into a brother - like bond . When the Clone Wars began , CT - 914 and CT - 915 fought together during the conflict . In 20 BBY , the two were dispatched to the planet Drongar , where the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems were fighting for control over the fields of bota , a highly valuable plant with exceptional medicinal qualities . On Drongar , the two friends were assigned to the same cohort . CT - 914 ' s quarters were located in barracks CT - Tertium , the largest of the three garrisons of Ground Base Seven , located at the edge of the Rotfurze Wastes , a region of severe ecological blight . While on Drongar , CT - 914 developed an unusual malady that caused his blood vessels to dilate seemingly without reason , resembling a deep shock condition . This resulted in CT - 914 ' s blood pressure being so low that if he tried to stand or sit up quickly , he fell unconscious , as blood could not feed his brain properly . CT - 914 was taken to the Republic Mobile Surgical Unit 7 , but the doctors there were unable to find the cause of the disease , which the local xenobiotic , Ree Ohr , dubbed " orthostatic hypotensive syncope of idiopathic origin . " As such , CT - 914 was essentially confined to bed in the RMSU ' s special section for patients who required constant monitoring , and the doctors could only keep him on histaminic retardant that decreased his blood pressure . Soon , however , CT - 914 was visited by Barriss Offee , a Jedi Padawan who had been assigned to the Mobile Surgical Unit . She spoke to the clone trooper , asking him to sit up . When CT - 914 did so , he fainted for thirteen seconds . Offee then offered to try using the Force to probe the trooper ' s energy field and determine the cause of his condition . Offee spent an hour in deep connection with the Force and located a disturbance in CT - 914 ' s neural net , centered in his hypothalamus ; the trooper ' s hindbrain had been damaged somehow . Offee then used the Force to soothe the injury . When the procedure was over and CT - 914 tried to stand up , he was able to do so — there was no hint of dizziness . Thanking Offee for her help , CT - 914 returned to his duties . Some time later , CT - 915 was injured in battle . Nine - one - four helped transport his comrade to the RMSU , and the local surgeons fought for the trooper ' s life . The next day , CT - 914 was restlessly waiting for the results of the operation outside the surgery when he met Offee . As the two conversed , Doctor Jos Vondar emerged from the surgery and informed CT - 914 that his comrade had died during the operation . The trooper was grief - stricken , but he tried to hold back his emotions . When Vondar noticed Nine - one - four ' s reaction and asked him if he had known Nine - one - five , the trooper told the Doctor that he considered CT - 915 his brother . This took Vondar completely by surprise , as he , until that moment , had thought of clone troopers as emotionless automatons who were essentially nothing more than the Republic ' s equivalent of Confederate battle droids . Thanking Vondar for his efforts , CT - 914 then returned to his unit . Days later , CT - 914 was assigned to trash duty at the RMSU . As he approached the refuse bin , he met Vondar , who asked him how he felt about CT - 915 ' s death personally . Nine - one - four did not want to talk about it , but since Vondar held a commission as a captain in the Republic Army , and CT - 914 ' s training dictated that he was obliged to answer his superior officers , the trooper told Vondar that he missed his comrade deeply and wholeheartedly , and expected that he would miss him until his own death . CT - 914 then returned to his task of collecting trash , leaving Vondar to reevaluate his thoughts about the clone troopers ' moral complexity . A short time later , CT - 914 ' s platoon was ambushed by Confederate forces in a guerrilla attack . Most of the platoon , including CT - 914 , was killed , and their remains were placed in recycling vats in order to salvage their biological material . Two days after the ambush , Vondar — who had changed his views regarding the value of clone troopers ' lives — decided to pay CT - 914 a sympathy call , hoping to apologize for his untactful behavior . When he found out that Nine - one - four had joined Nine - one - five in death , Vondar was shocked . The Doctor had come to consider CT - 914 as the example of his newfound knowledge of the clone troopers ' humanity , and the news of CT - 914 ' s death struck him almost as close as the news of the death of a close friend . Personality and traits . Like his genetic template , Jango Fett , CT - 914 stood 1 . 83 meters tall . Although all clone troopers were , in a sense , brothers , all being copies of Jango Fett , Nine - one - four considered Nine - one - five a brother more than the rest of his brethren . CT - 914 was emotionally pained by the loss of his closest friend , but he tried his best not to show his feelings and to take the news of his death stoically . He was irritated by Jos Vondar ' s questioning of his feelings , but his training forced him to obey and tell everything to the Doctor . While he was bedridden with the disease , CT - 914 showed no visible signs of concern regarding his condition and casually talked about it with Barriss Offee . CT - 914 possessed some sense of humor , replying jokingly to Offee ' s and Vondar ' s questions during the few interactions he had with them . He was surprised that Offee recognized him during their second meeting , having become accustomed to the Republic personnel being unable to tell clone troopers apart , but Offee explained to him that each clone trooper was unique in the Force . Behind the scenes . CT - 914 first appeared in " " , a 2004 novel and the first part of the MedStar Duology , written by Michael Reaves and Steve Perry . After being killed off in the same book , he was mentioned in the second installment of the duology , " " . In 2008 , CT - 914 received an entry in " The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia " .
