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. (Ahsoka, "Out of Darkness")

Ahsoka, as Fulcrum, supplies Hera with information about Imperial activity.

## 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. However, deep down, she had an insecurity that she could never be a Jedi and hid it behind her snippy and determined personality. Ahsoka was protective of her friends, which was exemplified when she wanted to save her other mentor, Plo Koon, Padmé from an assassin, Aurra Sing, and an unconscious Anakin, who she had protected when they were being shot at by Cad Bane. Apart from this, Ahsoka was kind-hearted, generous and thoughtful, wishing to restore peace and prosperity to the galaxy, even joining Bail Organa's rebel 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. 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 two 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 only Anakin believed in her and Barriss 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 seventh season of The Clone Wars, she bravely fought against Darth Maul, even though he was a powerful dark-sider and former Sith Lord, Ahsoka had managed to cause his capture. However, she chose to save Rex rather than apprehend Maul. Ahsoka realized that if she and the other Jedi listened to Barriss, then the formation of the Galactic 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, which also included Ezra Bridger, apprentice of Kanan Jarrus, whom she advised Hera to protect earlier.

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 discrete 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 what remained of her crew. Ahsoka decided to come out of hiding once and for all, finally revealing herself to the ghost crew as Hera's contact. During her adventures with the Ghost, Ahsoka became a mentor to both Kanan and Ezra, the latter who she formed a strong bond with. At this point, she had acknowledged that she was no longer a Jedi at this point and told Ezra and Kanan that she wasn't one anymore 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 Vader was her former master. It is shown that, in part, Ahsoka blames herself for not being able to save Anakin and his fall to the Dark Side. She reluctantly worked with Maul but when he turned on them and revealed his true intentions of taking Ezra as his own, Ahsoka fought him yet again until she went to rescue Ezra from Darth Vader. At this point, she decided to sacrifice herself by staying behind and fighting Vader so Chopper, Ezra and Kanan could escape. After Ezra saved her, she decided that he had helped save her life and that she owed him. Learning of Kanan's death, she later helped Ezra move on from losing his master ans showed him that his sacrifice was not in vain, for Kanan gave up his life so Ezra and their friends could live.

Years after Ezra saved her, she returned to Lothal and joined Sabine Wren, but it was unknown if they ever found him.

Ahsoka still left the Jedi Order and told Anakin that she needed to find her own path without the Jedi and tearful, without him.

They wished each other good luck before going their separate ways, as Ashoka went to capture Maul and Anakin rushed off to save the Chancellor. However, this would be the last time she and Anakin saw each other as friends.

Sometime during the Age of the Empire, Anakin as Darth Vader went to the moon where Ahsoka's Star Destroyer crash-landed and only found her lightsaber, leading him to Believe that his former apprentice had been killed on board. He kept her old lightsaber, only to learn that Ahsoka survived order 66, as he sensed her presence with the Lothal rebels through their Force bond.

Ahsoka was immediately fond of Ezra and was smiling proudly when he was the first of the Ghost crew to answer Minister Tua's cries for help. At times, she acted as a mentor towards the Padawan, especially when it came to some subjects of the Force. The two came to trust each other, causing Ezra to put faith in her friend Rex and vice versa then Ahsoka entrusted Ahim with looking after an Force-sensitive infant.

Later, when they were on Malachor, Ahsoka knew Ezra could take care of himself when he was left alone with Darth Maul, because of Kanan's teachings. After the former Sith announced he was going to take Ezra on as an apprentice. He attempted to take to his advantage, even mocking her that he will take Ezra as well as the power, showing that Ahsoka was willing to protect Ezra if necessary. She later came to Ezra's rescue when he was cornered by Darth Vader and stopped him from torturing her friend. Ezra later attempted to help Ahsoka but she Forced pushed Ezra for his safety and stayed behind so Ezra, Kanan and Chopper could escape.

After her supposed death, Ezra mourned her loss and blamed himself for Ahsoka's supposed demise. However, in truth, an Ezra four years into the future had saved Ahsoka from Vader's wrath in the World Between Worlds. She was thankful for the adult Ezra's help, and decided that she owed him her life.
