Ahsoka Tano
[HASH]Star_Wars [HASH]Clone_Wars
Ahsoka "Snips" Tano is a fictional character in the Star Wars universe and a protagonist in the 2008 animated film: Star Wars: The Clone Wars and the following series. When the series began with the Clone Wars movie she was depicted as a 14 year old Togruta female, and the show ended with her as a 16-year-old. Ahsoka reappears in Star Wars Rebels as an adult.
George Lucas stated that the character of Ahsoka was developed for the series as a means of illustrating how Anakin Skywalker develops from the brash, undisciplined Padawan in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones to the more reserved Jedi Knight in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. However, Master Yoda worries about Skywalker's personal relationships. By giving Skywalker his own Padawan, it would place the character into a paternal role where he would be forced to become more cautious and responsible. It would also give Skywalker new insight into his relationship with his own mentor, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and explain how their relationship matured. Lucas stated that, having raised two daughters, he "knew something about the subject," and decided to make Skywalker's apprentice a young woman.
Ahsoka Tano was discovered by Master Plo Koon. Abandoned by her parents, she was raised in the Jedi Temple. She graduates to Padawan at age 14 (two years earlier than most Padawans), both due to the ongoing Clone Wars and as an effort by Master Yoda to teach Anakin Skywalker a greater sense of responsibility. She uses her lightsaber in an unorthodox Shien reverse grip, different from most Jedi. Later in the war (when she is age 16), she wields two lightsabers — one green and one yellow — and wears a Togruta-inspired outfit that includes the akul-tooth headdress (a surprising feat for someone her age).
Ahsoka displays the same type of rash and rebellious behavior that Anakin is known for. She adopts a highly informal attitude towards her new master and tends to address individuals by nicknames. For example, Anakin is known as "Sky Guy", R2-D2 is referred to as "Artooie", and CT-7567 Clone Captain Rex is "Rexster." Anakin in turn refers to her as "Snips", in reference to her "snippy" attitude when they first met.
