## Star Wars The Clone Wars (film)

Assigned to Anakin Skywalker by Yoda by the age of fourteen, Anakin went to meet her new Master and his foremr Master, Obi-Wan Kenobi. Upon reaching Christophsis, Ahsoka introduced herself to Obi-Wan and Anakin and allowed them to use her transmission to communicate with Yoda because their communications were blocked off by Separatist forces.At first, Obi-Wan was the one who thought that Ahsoka was assigned to him as his Padawan, but she quickly corrected the Jedi Master and clarified that she was to become Anakin's. The young man is utterly perplexed, but begrudgingly brings her along the front lines, where Ahsoka meets his second-in-command, Captain Rex. As the two get acquainted with each other, she notices a deflector shield that the droid army had set up that would block the artillery bombardment. Anakin and Ahsoka both sneak into enemy lines to destroy the shield generators. However, during their plan, Obi-Wan surrenders to Separatist General Whorm Loathsom in order to distract him as Anakin and Ahsoka make their way to destroy the generator. During their fight with battle droids, Ahsoka sees her master struggling as the retail droids pin him down and spots a wall with a convenient whole in the center, and uses the Force to crush the other droids attacking him. Due to their efforts, the generator explodes. In the aftermath, Anakin tells Ahsoka that she is reckless and would never make it as Obi-Wan's Padawan but she might make it as his. Yoda nearly pulls Ahsoka out as Anakin's Padawan, but the young man assures that with proper training and patience, Ahsoka will make a good Jedi, causing the girl to be thankful for Anakin defending her. With Anakin, Ahsoka goes on the mission to rescue Jabba the Hutt's son in the Teth system.

On their way to rescue Rotta on the planet Teth, Ahsoka informs the Clones what transpired between her and Anakin during the battle of Christophsis, immediately building a friendship with the Clones and her Master, who has nicknamed her "Snips" because of her snippy personality. Making it to the fortress, Anakin and Ahsoka find him in a cell, left abandoned and extremely ill. Ahsoka reveals her insecurities on being Anakin's student, but the Young Jedi assures Ahsoka that she will make it and that nothing happens in hte Force by accident. They are alerted to the presence of Asajj Ventress when they hear Rex call Anakin by his first name, something Rex never does and only addresses Anakin as "General."

Master and Padawan are forced to flee on an abandoned ship, where Ahsoka briefly engages in a duel with Asajj Ventress, Dooku's apprentice before Anakin intervenes as they steal a ship, dubbed the Twilight and returning Rotta to Tatooine. Ahsoka helps heal the Hutt child and fianlly cures him of his affliction. When returning to Anakin's homeworld, Ahsoka remains unaware of Anakin's past experiences on the planet. Meanwhile, the Battle Droids are sent after Ahsoka and Anakin, leading them to split up. While Ahsoka rushes off to Jabba's palace, Anakin distracts Dooku. On her way, the girl is attakced by Dooku's droids but she manages to fight them off. However, she spots Anakin and tries to track him down, but her master flies by her. Ahsoka makes it to Jabba's palace, returning Rotta safely to his father. However, Jabba still believes that they are there to kill him and orders his gangsters to execute them. However, he is contacted by Padmé Amidala, who reveals Dooku decieved him and that his uncle Ziro was in on the plan the whole time. Thanks to Ahsoka's and Anakin's efforts, the Republic forms an alliance with the Hutts.

## The Clone Wars (TV Series)

### Chasing the *Malovence*

#### Saving Plo Koon

Due to the Separatists' hidden weapon, the Malevolence, Ahsoka Tano accompanied her Master to the Bith system, where they are contacted by Ahsoka's mentor, Plo Koon, who had found where the Malevolence would be located. However, the transmission was cut off, causing Ahsoka to be concerned for the fate of Plo and his Clone Forces. She and Anakin confer with Mace Windu, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine and Obi-Wan Kenobi, who order Skywalker and Tano to remain in the Bith system rather than search for survivors, causing Ahsoka to outburst in protest that they must do something to save Koon however, her concerns are overlooked. After their transmission ends Anakin scolded her for her insubordination, but Ahsoka refuses to acknowledge her mistake. Anakin and Ahsoka departed from their Star Destroyer to rescue Plo and his battalion of Clone Troopers to the Abregado system. Ahsoka was not aware of this until Anakin revealed that they were searching for survivors, causing her to feel betrayed and slightly agitated that Anakin was planning on searching for survivors but, in spirit of the High Council's demands, keeping his fleet in the system.

Obi-Wan, knowing his former Padawan, contacts the duo and tells Anakin to return to his command, following Chancellor Palpatine's order as well. However, Ahsoka, through her bond with Master Plo, senses he is still alive shortly after he and his clones destroyed Separatist droids and both she and Anakin come in for the rescue. After bringing the troops safely onboard the *Twilight*, Ahsoka and a weakened Plo embraced one another. However, the Malevolence comes around the ship's general, causing the Twilight to go on shutdown but they neglect to turn off the Medical droid. Realizing they are compromised, Anakin and Ahsoka flee with their survivors, making a clean getaway. The clones thank Ahsoka and Anakin for helping them as Plo Koon and Anakin report to the council. Despite Ahsoka's outburst earlier, Anakin invites her to come along anyways, so they both share the blame. (Destroy Malevolence)

## Star Wars Rebels

### Identity as Fulcrum

In the early days of the rebellion, Ahsoka establishes a network of the rebellion's secret informants established by her, calling themselves "Fulcrum" in honor of Anakin Skywalker's frequency used during the Clone Wars. She frequently contacts Hera Syndulla, providing her and her crew with several jobs and leaving provisions for her on Fort Anaxes, an abandoned Clone military base. ("Old Friends Not Forgotten","Out of Darkness")

Ahsoka, as Fulcrum, supplies Hera with information about Imperial activity. She later plans to give Hera with supplies she needs to provide for her crew and contacts her, informing Hera that she has arrived at the rendevous point at Fort Anaxes and wonders if she should wait for her until a young woman tells Ahsoka to wait for their arrival. Knowing Hera has a young woman who is deemed "Spectre-5," Ahsoka decides to leave in order to keep her identity a secret. ("Out of Darkness")

Several days later, Ahsoka is contacted by Hera to help Tseebo, a friend of one of her crewmates, escape Imperial custody. As "Fulcrum" comes to take Tseebo away, Ahsoka announces her arrival. Sabine asks Hera if she and Zeb can meet "Fulcrum" but she tells them some other time. Ahsoka presumably takes Tseebo somewhere safe, but not before he tells Hera the fates of Ezra's parents, Mira and Ephraim. (Gathering Forces)

In an unspecified amount of time, Ahsoka is contacted by Hera about Senator Gall Trayvis coming to Lothal after Ezra Bridger had a vision of him. She tells Hera that the senator always puts coded messages in transmissions, it is always the one he is visiting. (Vision of Hope)

As Fulcrum, she assigns Hera Syndulla and Spectres on a milk run to pick up supplies for Tarkintown refugees on Lothal on the planet Kaller. (Kanan)

Ahsoka is informed of Kanan's capture and how his team is trying to rescue him. However, she tells Hera that Kanan risked everything, even putting his own safety over his family's. Despite Hera's insistance that they can find Kanan, Ahsoka believes that their cover is blown for they were to be unseen. She informs her friend of Ezra's transmission gaining the attentions of not only civilians, but the highest ranking levels of the Empire and tells Hera to halt the search to protect Ezra and her crew. (Rebels Resolve)

After the spectres ignored her warnings and went to rescue Kanan, several days later, Ahsoka is contacted by C1-10P, Hera's droid, who realizes he and his companions are outnumbered at Mustafar and needs assistance. Urged, Ahsoka and Chopper return to the system, rescuing the Spectres in the process. After leading Phoenix Cell at Mustafar and helping the Ghost crew escape, Ahsoka finally showed herself to the other members. Though Hera addresses her as Fulcrum, Ahsoka tells them her real name and informed them of being part of a wider rebellion. When Kanan asks of her presence, she tells her former fellow Jedi that hope has sparked in the galaxy. Ezra asks Ahsoka what is to happen next, but she reveals she is not sure but knows that a chapter for Ezra is ending and a new one is beginning. ("Fire Across the Galaxy")
