BiographyEdit

99 was deemed to be unfit for service in the Grand Army of the Republic due to his limited physical abilities, and was assigned to perform janitorial duties in Kamino's cloning facilities.

He befriended the members of Domino Squad—which included cadets CT-782, CT-00-2010, CT-21-0408, CT-4040, and CT-27-5555 during their final exam to become clone troopers. However, Domino Squad lacked proper teamwork, which caused them to fail the Citadel Challenge.

Though Jedi Master Shaak Ti decided to give Domino Squad a second chance, 99 later caught CT-782 attempted to go AWOL in the middle of the night. 99 pleaded CT-782, whom he nicknamed Hevy, not to leave and taught him the importance of teamwork and brotherhood. Deciding to take 99's advice and name to heart, Hevy led his squad to finishing their final exam. However, Hevy decided to give 99 his graduation medal, with the promise that they will meet again.

During an attack launched against Tipoca City by the Confederacy of Independent Systems, 99 assisted clone troopers CT-21-0408, CT-27-5555, and a group of cadets against the invading droid forces. After meeting with CT-7567 and CC-2224, 99 assisted the captain and commander in defending the city. 99 was shot and killed by a battle droid while attempting to retrieve more explosives for use in combating the droids. Once the Confederacy was pushed back, 99 was mourned by his brothers and commended as a true soldier.
