Ahsoka Tano

**Ahsoka Tano** is one of the main protagonists of the animated series *Star Wars: The Clone Wars* and *Star Wars Rebels*.

During the Clone Wars, she became the Jedi Padawan of Anakin Skywalker before his fall to the dark side as Darth Vader. However, Ahsoka lost faith in the Jedi Order when the Council did not stand by her when she was accused of treason in the Jedi Temple. She attempted to commit to a civillian life but was soon called back into war by Bo-Katan Kryze to capture Darth Maul which led to The Siege of Mandalore and Order 66.

Surviving the Jedi Purge, Ahsoka went into hiding, assuming the identity of Ashla. However, she was drawn out of hiding and recruited by her old ally through Padme, Bail Organa to become part of his rebellion against Palpatine. Ahsoka began using the code-name Fulcrum, serving as a spy for the rebels and contact through Hera Syndulla. Along the way, she befriended Ezra Bridger, whom she mentored and became close friends with. Following Ezra's disappearance into hyperspace with Grand Admiral Thrawn during the Liberation of Lothal, Ahsoka joined Sabine Wren on a quest to find him and bring him home. It took them a span of ten years to find him.

## Personality

As a teenager, Ahsoka was determined to become a Jedi and had a snippy personality. Due to this she was affectionately called "Snips" by her Master, Anakin. She was eager to prove herself worthy of being Anakin's Padawan, especially during their first Battle and their mission to return Jabba's son, Rotta, have to him. Ahsoka also looked up to Anakin, whom she had developed a brother-sister with during their time together as Master and Padawan. Having her trust in him, one of her greatest fears was disappointing him. She had an insecurity that she could never be a Jedi and hid it behind her snippy and determined personality. Again was protective of her friends, which was exemplified when she wanted to save her other mentor, Plo Koon, saved Padmé from an assassin, Aurra Sing, and an unconsciousn Anakin, who she had protected when they were being shot at by Cad Bane.

Apart from this, Ahsoka was generous and kind-hearted, wishing to restore peace and prosperity to the galaxy, even joining Bail Organa's cell. Ahsoka also tended to pick up several of her Master, Anakin Skywalker's personality, such as acting rash and reckless thinking attributed to her decisions. She would occasionally act Arrogant and brash like her Master would. However, over the years, Ahsoka learned patience and began to approach things more closely than Anakin. Her fatal flaw was that she could never stop trying to prove herself. In the end, she proves to be a loyal and brave individual. Together with Anakin's wife, Padmé, they became a dynamic duo, formed a sisterly relationship together, and were of the most important women in Anakin's life.

After Ahsoka had been accused of murder, she became dedicated in proving her innocence. She became disillusioned with the Order after they coldly casted her out. When they offered her a place back into the Order, Ahsoka refused because no one but Anakin believed in her and Barris Offee's betrayal. Her reason for expelling herself from the Order was one of the few reasons why Anakin fell to the dark side of the Force. In the novel ''Ahsoka'', she bravely fought against Darth Maul, even though he was a powerful dark-sider and former Sith Lord. However, she chose to save Rex rather than apprehend Maul. Ahsoka realized that if she and the other Jedi listened to Barris, then the empire and the fall of the order would have never occurred. She pitied her enemy, the Sixth Brother, whose potential for good turned to the dark side. Her encounter with the Inquisitors and her befriending Force-sensitive child Hedala Fardi made her realize she wanted to protect Force-sensitive children from being captured by the Empire's Inquisitors.

During her time as Fulcrum, Ahsoka worked with a variety of rebel cells and had her voice disguised so no one could identify her. She developed a more descrete personality, believing needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, best shown when she urged Hera Syndulla to cease her search for Kanan to protect her crew, especially Ezra. Ahsoka decided to come out of hiding once and for all. Ahsoka acknowledged that she was no longer a Jedi at this point and told Ezra Bridger and Kanan Jarrus that she wasn't when they went to Lothal in search of the Jedi temple that resided there.  Upon realizing that Vader and Anakin were the same person, Ahsoka was utterly horrified and refused to acknowledge the truth until Malachor, when she accepted that Anakin and Vader were one and the same. She later owed her life to Ezra Bridger, causing her to later search for him with Sabine Wren.
