Rex

Rex, formerly designated CT-7567, was a clone trooper who fought for the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars. As Captain of the Grand Army of the Republic's 501st Legion, Rex served faithfully under Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker — and later his Padawan Ahsoka Tano — in various deployments, from Arantara and Christophsis near the war's beginning to Anaxes and Yerbana by the war's end, though various events, among which included saving by clone deserter Cut Lawquane in Saleucami, his mutiny against fallen Jedi General Pong Krell on Umbara, and the death of Advanced Recon Commando (ARC) Trooper "Fives" for his attempt to expose a conspiracy against the Jedi, planted doubts about his dedication as a soldier in service of the Republic throughout the war.
When Tano appealed to Skywalker and Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi in diverting personnel to stage an invasion of Mandalore and overthrow the renegade Sith Lord Maul, Rex was promoted to Commander of the Legion's 332nd Company for the subsequent Siege of Mandalore, managing to capture Maul. The return to Coruscant with an imprisoned Maul aboard the Republic Cruiser Tribunal, however, was interrupted when Sith Lord Darth Sidious issued Order 66 to all clone troopers — compelling them to execute Jedi for treason against the Republic. Having previously removed his biochip responsible for inducting compliance with the order, Tano rescued Rex following his detainment by the rest of the Company, and after de-chipping ARC Trooper Lieutenant "Jesse", managed to escape the destruction of the Tribunal, though at the sacrifice of Jesse.
Presumed killed-in-action by the newly-formed Galactic Empire, Rex parted ways with Tano in search of clones seeking to escape the Empire, eventually gathering a squad consisting of fellow clones Wolffe, Gregor, Boil and Kix. Despite retiring to the remote Outer Rim world of Seelos, Rex and Boil were later recruited — on the recommendation of Tano and her husband then-Jedi Knight Jarik Shan — by the Spectres rebel cell and Tano and Shan’s daughter Mara Jade in the early rebellion against the Empire. Joining the Phoenix Cell and later the Massassi Group, Rex's service in the Alliance to Restore the Republic spanned from the Liberation of Lothal in 1 BBY to the Battle of Endor near the end of the Galactic Civil War in 4 ABY.
