—Ahsoka Tano, to her former master Darth Vader
Ahsoka Tano, nicknamed Snips by her master, was a Togruta female from the planet Shili who was trained as a Sith apprentice in the years leading to Palpatine's rise to power. The only known survivor of the Vjun Massacre, she escaped into hiding, emerging later to help assist in the establishment of a network of rebels against the Galactic Empire.
