Count Dooku

Dooku aka Darth tyranus is a major antagonist in Star Wars

* Count Dooku vs. Saruman

## History

Born to Count Gora and Countess Anya of Serenno, young Dooku was taken into the Jedi Order after he had been abandoned by his family and became the Padawan of Grandmaster Yoda. Once one of the most respected members of the Jedi Order, the death of his former Padawan, Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn, as well as the corruption he saw in the Republic left him disillusioned with the Order, resulting in his departure and fall to the dark side. He eventually fell under the sway of Darth Sidious, becoming the Dark Lord's second apprentice and an exceedingly dangerous foe of the order he once served. Leading the Confederacy of Independent Systems in the Clone Wars, Dooku planned to overthrow Sidious, but was ultimately betrayed by his master, who arranged his death at the hands of his eventual replacement, Anakin Skywalker, who later fell to the dark side and became Darth Vader.
