- "This is Two - Axe. Ready when you are, skipper."
- ―Axe to Jedi Commander Ahsoka Tano
Axe, Blue Two, and formerly Blue Leader, was a clone trooper pilot in the Grand Army of the Republic.
History[]
- "Come on, you whiners. Let's get dirty!"
- ―Axe to his squadron.
Axe was assigned to Blue Squadron. He and Blue Squadron were assigned to serve under Jedi General Anakin Skywalker aboard the Resolute. They were tasked with taking out the blockade around Ryloth, so the fleet could get through to the surface to rescue the Twi'leks.[3] Axe was demoted so Jedi Commander Ahsoka Tano could take lead for the first time, which led to him assuming the title of Blue Two.
They attacked the fleet, losing Slammer and Tucker in the process.[3] Tano ordered the retreat, after much arguing with Admiral Wulff Yularen. During the retreat, with Swoop and Kickback in the front, Tano and Axe brought up the rear.[3] The Separatist Vulture droids came after them and began firing at Axe. At that time, Axe had to focus on his power converters, which resulted in him getting shot down.[3]
Armor and Equipment[]
Axe had sleak white Phase 1 armor, but his helmet possessed a marking, in blue, of what resembled a Blixus.[6] Because Axe was a starfighter pilot, his shoulder armor allowed him to perform quick maneuvers, and his elbow guards were attached to his forearm armor. Axe utilized a DC-17 hand blaster if necessary.[5]

Notes[]
- ↑ Axe is listed as being 2.08 meters tall in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars Character Encyclopedia, an unusually tall height when compared to the normal clone height of 1.83 meters. Though it is possible that this may have been an editing error, the potential for his height being a rare mutation remains. Unless another source contradicting this height is found, 2.08 meters can be assumed correct.
