Biography

Count Dooku of Serenno left the Jedi Order and reemerged as Darth Tyranus, secret apprentice to Darth Sidious. He founded the Confederacy of Independent Systems, contracted Jango Fett as the clone template, and dueled Jedi on Geonosis to open the Clone Wars. Taken with Palpatine during the Battle of Coruscant, he was executed by Anakin Skywalker aboard the Invisible Hand at the Chancellor's urging.
