CC-6011

"I have to do what I have to do. I'm a clone trooper, remember? My job is to protect the Republic, and my men. Let me deal with these metal bastards. Now go, get out of here!"

- Captain Panaka to Turret during the Battle of Garbo

"Panaka", designated CT-6101/6011, was a clone trooper captain of the Great Clone Forces, who served for the Galactic Republic in the Second Clone Wars. He was ultimately killed by at least sixty Imperial battle droids while sacrificing himself to allow his team to escape.

Biography
Captain Panaka was one of the trillions of clones of Republican Exhart Martineus bred on planet Kylone as a clone trooper to serve the Galactic Republic in countering the attacks of outer forces such as the Federal Society and the Dark Empire in the galaxy-wide conflict known as the Second Clone Wars. He was given the rank of captain early of his service in the war, and led the Broad Company, in which he grew fond of.

Panaka fought well and performed excellently throughout his years in the war. In 60 ABY, during a mission on planet Garbo, his whole company along with hundreds of others were sent to infiltrate an Imperial star destroyer which landed there. Republic intelligence suspected the crew of the destroyer to hold a fortune of information on the Empire's strategies for the war, thus informed the Chancellor who then ordered the clones to attack the destroyer.

Apparently, the star destroyer was prepared for the attack, and decimated most of the clone's forces. Panaka and a small part of his team managed to enter the destroyer secretly. After a few moments of travelling inside the ship through the ventilation systems, the clones discovered the control room. They engaged the droids, alerting the whole destroyer's crew. While defending themselves, they absorbed the files from the computer with a taskdrive.

Once finished, Panaka and his men ran out the room and head for the exit. By then, only Panaka and a few members of Cocoa Squad were left. They reached a small blast door which took a few minutes to open. The enemy droids arrived and the troopers were running through the blast door, just before Panaka ordered them to escape via a space pod and leave him alone to "deal with these metal bastards". As the last clone went through the door, Panaka himself fought with about sixty battle droids along the hallway. He was finally shot multiple times by the droids until he dropped to the floor.

Personality
Panaka was a fierce and disciplined captain, but he was also very fond of his men, who were technically his "brothers", and he also showed strong patriotism and obedience towards the Galactic Republic, both evident when he fought enemy battle droids alone for his remaining teammates to escape. There was nothing more that he cared for rather than the safety of his team, which was also quite fond of him. Through fighting many battles since the beginning of the war, Panaka became rough and turned into a stone-cold killer.
