Battle of Orto Plutonia

The **Battle of Orto Plutonia** was a short-lived war battle from *Star Wars: The Clones Wars*. It deals with the conflict between the Pantoran Assembly of the moon, Pantora, and the Talz alien creature warrior tribe from the planet, Orth Plutonia for control of the planet. The battle takes place in the Season 1 episode, "Trespass."

## History

### Background

It all started when Chairman Chi Cho of the Moon, Pantora decided to colonize the snow planet, Orto Plutonia to make it a stronghold for the Republic against the Separatists. Chairman Cho believed the planet was uninhabited and that Pantora was the only civilization within the system Orto Plutonia was in thus claiming it as sovereign Pantoran territory. A Clone Trooper security force was sent to occupy Orto Plutonia but during that time, they were attacked at their base by something that killed them all. As a result, Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi as well as Captain Rex, his Clone Squad, R2-D2, and C-3PO were sent to investigate the attack by order of the Senate along with Chairman Chi Cho, Pantoran Senator Riyo Chuchi, and some Pantoran Guards to act as Pantoran dignitaries since Chairman Cho asked the Senate to help protect Orto Plutonia with help from Senator Chuchi. When they all arrived on gunships, Anakin ordered Captain Rex and his Clone Squad to survey Orto Plutonia and place as many sensor beacons as they could before dark. Obi-Wan and Chairman Cho then investigated the Republic base where they found the helmets of the dead Clone Troopers on spears. Chairman Cho believed it was a Separatist attack but Obi-Wan stated that it wasn't since none of the computers weren't touched. Then they were reported by Captain Rex that some Clone Troopers had found a Separatist Droid Army base on the other side of the ice ridge on the planet. Anakin and Obi-Wan then traveled to the Separatist base on Speeder Bikes along with Captain Rex and his squad where they discovered that whatever attacked the Republic base and killed the Clone Troopers also attacked the Separatist base, destroyed all the Battle Droids, and placed their heads on spears just like the Clone Trooper helmets. Anakin and Rex then continued to place sensor beacons, while Obi-Wan and the rest of the Clones investigated the Separatist base. During which, Anakin finds giant footprints in the snow and is ordered by Obi-Wan to have the Clone Troopers make a cast from them. Then Anakin and Obi-Wan reviewed the last transmission from the Battle Droids and discovered that they were attacked by large white creatures. Anakin and Obi-Wan then go to investigate the Battle Droid's last known location where they discover the village of the creatures who were an alien warrior tribe called the Talz who have lived on Orto Plutonia longer than the Pantoran Assembly. After meeting the leader of the Talz, Chieftain Thi-Sen they explain that come to them in peace which Thi-Sen accepted. When Anakin and Obi-Wan got back to the Republic base and explained to Chairman Cho and Senator Chuchi what they found, Chairman Cho accused the Talz of being trespassers, claimed them as Pantoran property, and planned to attack them. But Obi-Wan explained that the Talz only wanted to be left and that they attacked the Separatist base after the Battle Droids attacked them and the Republic base got caught in the middle of it. They also arranged a peace meeting between the Talz and the Pantoran Assembly even though Chairman Cho didn't trust them due to seeing them as savage and uncivilized. Anakin and Oni-Wan then arrived back at the Separatist base for the peace meeting with the Talz along with Chairman Cho, Senator Chuchi, Captain Rex, and some of Captain Rex's Clone Squad on Speeder Bikes they even brought C-3PO along to translate for them. Chairman Cho still wanted to fight the Talz but Anakin and Obi-Wan revealed to him that Talz Scouts had been following them for some time and surrounded them so Anakin ordered Captain Rex and his squad to stand down so they wouldn't provoke the Talz. After meeting up with Thi-Sen again, he welcomed them all and hoped to live in peace with them as neighbors but he didn't want them to occupy Orto Plutonia. But Chairman Cho arrogantly refused this, declared to the Thi-Sen that Orto Plutonia belonged to Pantora, and refused to leave it despite Senator Chuchi and Obi-Wan's objections. This angered Thi-Sen who asked once again for them to leave or face war which Chairman Cho accepted and left to gather up guards.

### The Battle

Chairman Cho then gathers up his guards and Captain Rex's Clone Squad to prepare for war against the Talz at the Republic base and declares the whole thing an internal affair of Pantora so Anakin and Obi-Wan can do nothing to stop it. While Anakin orders Captain Rex to protect Chairman Cho, he and Obi-Wan try to convince Senator Chuchi to find a way to stop this since a preemptive strike is illegal. So she decides to talk to the Speaker of the Pantoran Assembly about it, then they all go back to their gunships at the Republic base to make the transmission call. On their way back to the Republic base on their Speeder Bikes, Chairman Cho and the Clone Troopers see some of the Talz so Chairman Cho orders the Clone Troopers to attack them but then they end up getting ambushed by the Talz. Both sides attack and fight each other off with the Clone Troopers fighting with their blasters while riding on their Speeder Bikes to protect Chairman Cho while the Talz attack with their spears while riding on Narglatch. Soon the Clone Troopers get surrounded by the Talz so they form a defensive formation around Chairman Cho but the Talz still attack by throwing spears at them. One of the Talz kills one of Chairmen Cho's Pantoran Guards but then gets shot by the other one. Captain Rex then orders his men to fall back and retreat but Chairman Cho still wants to fight the Talz. However, the Talz spear his other Pantoran Guard then Chairman Cho is later speared right in the back by them so Captain Rex picks him up and takes Chairman Cho back to the Republic base with the rest of the surviving members of his Clone Squad on their Speeder Bikes. Meanwhile, back at the gunships at the Republic base, Senator Chuchi has completed the transmission call with the Speaker of the Pantoran Assembly. Who declares that the Pantoran Assembly has called Chairman Cho and his action out of order and gives Senator Chuchi the authority to try to negotiate peace with the Talz then she, Anakin, Obi-Wan, R2-D2, C-3PO, and the other Clone Troopers all fly off on the gunships to find the Talz. On their way there, Senator Chuchi wants Obi-Wan to negotiate with the Talz for her on Pantora's behalf but he claims that she has to be the one to do it since it's her people the Talz are at war with and she must represent her people. Soon the Talz led by Thi-Sen pursue Rex's Clone Squad and take out some of them, then corner them at a gorge. The Clone Troopers continue to fight off the Talz which take out some of their own until then Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Senator Chuchi arrive on the gunships. While the Clone Troopers on the gunships tend to the wounded Clone Troopers, Rex tells Anakin and Obi-Wan about what happened. Then Chairman Cho who is on the brink of death asks Senator Chuchi to avenge him and orders her to destroy the Talz in his place. But Senator Chuchi refuses this and reveals to Chairman Cho about the Pantoran Assembly calling him out of order and to have her negotiate peace with the Talz. Chairman Cho then dies in disbelief and Senator Chuchi takes a spear and his helmet then steps forward to make peace with the Talz with C-3PO to translate. Senator Chuchi sticks her spear into the ground and places the Chairman's helmet on it declaring that she chooses to live for her people instead of dying for them which she claims is a greater sacrifice than dying for them. Then Thi-Sen in response sticks his spear into the ground too and chooses to live for his people as well, thus ending the war between the Pantoran Assembly and the Talz on Orto Plutonia.

### Aftermath

Senator Chuchi claims that the Pantoran Assembly shall leave Orto Plutonia under the watchful eye of the Talz, thus declaring peace between both sides as free and equal people. Obi-Wan then congratulates Senator Chuchi on her brave diplomacy and advises her to try and keep the peace as they everyone leaves Orto Plutonia on the gunships. With the death of Chairman Cho, Pantora later elected a new Chairman to rule them named Baron Notluwiski Papanoida.
