Legend

this woman was being trained as an apprentice to Count Dooku, otherwise known as Darth Tyranus, during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. She went rogue just after the Jedi Knights defeated the Mandalorians on Galidraan, after her training was cut short by the Jedi Council. The Council feared that she had become unstable, and pointed to her infatuation with Dooku as evidence. Komari fled Coruscant, but she later joined the task force of Jedi Knights dispatched to Baltizaar. It was believed that she died in the battle at Baltizaar. When he found out she was still alive, Tyranus put a huge bounty on her head, to ensure that Jango Fett accepted the bounty and set out to eliminate her. Tyranus hoped to aqccomplish two things: eliminate any threat posed by the Bando Gora to the plans of Darth Sidious, and test Jango Fett to prove he was a legitimate candidate to serve as the basis for a clone army. Jango discovered that Komari Vosa had become the leader of the very Bando Gora cult she had battled on Baltizaar, after slaying her fellow Jedi and turning to the Dark Side. She believed that the Jedi Order - and Dooku in particular - had abandoned her, and set out to exact revenge against those she now hated. Her weapons of choice were a pair curved lightsabers, similar to the one used by Dooku. Komari Vosa and her followers developed a form of death stick that warped the mind of its user, creating a slave for the cult's own use. She used these drugged slaves to attack her enemies. The cult was eventually smashed by Jango Fett, who managed to confront Vosa on Kohlma. Jango would have killed her if Tyranus hadn't stepped in. Tyranus then explained that he had trained Vosa years before, and used the Bando Gora as a way to test Jango's suitability to serve as the template for the clone troopers that were created for the Army of the Republic.
