Clone Commander CC-1010, also known as Fox, is a minor character in the epic space opera franchise Star Wars, appearing as a minor character in the 2008 animated film Star Wars: The Clone Wars, and as a supporting character-turned-antagonist in the 2008-2020 animated television series of the same name and the 2017-2018 comic series Star Wars: Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith.
Fox was a clone commander in the Grand Army of the Galactic Republic and in the Imperial Army of its successor state the Galactic Empire. He served as the commander of the Coruscant Guard, the elite clone force responsible for maintaining security on the capital planet Coruscant. Fox was honor bound to serve Sheev Palpatine and the Galactic Senate, and was known by his unwavering adherence to upholding the law.
Like the rest of the clones in the series, he voiced by Dee Bradley Baker.
Personality
As a Commander of the Coruscant Guard, Fox led the Shock troopers guarding the Republic capital. Like every other clone trooper in the Guard, Fox was bound by honor and duty to protect and serve the Supreme Chancellor and the members of the Galactic Senate. He spent little time with Jedi, and his loyalty was first to the Republic. He followed orders swiftly and effectively, never visually questioning them.
He is a fearless soldier who led the elite Coruscant Guard shock troopers into combat, and was always the first to charge into battle. As with the rest of the Guard, Fox possessed a strong sense of duty and honor which compelled him to loyally serve and protect the Republic's highest governing body—the Galactic Senate and the Supreme Chancellor. His service was exemplary, leading him to become one of the most highly decorated soldiers in the Grand Army of the Republic.
Utterly fearless, Fox was always the first to lead the charge into battle, even in the most perilous combat situations. His exemplary performance has made him one of the most highly decorated soldiers in the Republic army.

Biography
CC-1010, named Fox is a commander in the Coruscant Guard, far from the front lines. He is friends with fellow officers Captain Rex and Commander Cody. When Senator Padmé Amidala was kidnapped in the Coruscant lower levels, he realizes the Separatist threats are everywhere.
Fox's duties have made him familiar with the seedier levels of Coruscant, including the palace of the foul crimelord Ziro the Hutt. When word came that Ziro imprisoned a Republic Senator, Fox and his Guardsmen rushed to the scene.
Assigned to a Republic military base, he pursued the fugitive Ahsoka Tano who was blamed for the murder of Letta Turmond, but she evades capture. Fox later killed rogue clone trooper Fives before he can reveal a conspiracy within the Republic.
Later in the aftermath of the Clone Wars, Fox retained command of the Coruscant Guard and when the Republic he once served had been reorganized into the Galactic Empire. During the early years of Emperor Palpatine's reign, Fox organized a security perimeter encircling the fallen Temple of the Jedi Order while the Sith Lord Darth Vader attempted to capture the Jedi Master Jocasta Nu, one of the few survivors of Order 66. Ultimately, Fox was killed by Vader after the shock troopers tried to kill him, having mistaken the Sith for a Jedi and unintentionally avenging Fives.
Trivia
- Due to his actions in the series, most infamously killing Fives, Fox is considered one of the most hated clones in the Star Wars community. Many fans rejoiced to see him finally get killed by Darth Vader later on.
- Fox is the only regularly-recurring clone in The Clone Wars whose face was never revealed.
- Fox is the reason why some of the events happen:
- He unintentionally led demolition droids disguised as sweeper droids to the city's power core and destroyed the peace negotiations of Senator Padme Amidala and Senator Mina Bontari.
- He arrested Ahsoka Tano and caused her faith in the Republic and the Jedi Order to be shattered and caused Anakin's eventual distrust in the Jedi Order.
- And the most infamous example, he murdered Fives and unintentionally helped Darth Sidious prevent Order 66 from being revealed.
- In a bit of irony, Fox had no idea that Darth Vader was actually Anakin Skywalker, the same Jedi who was Ahsoka Tano's master, so he was unaware that he was killed by the same Jedi who was Ahsoka's master and the same Jedi he refused to let Ahsoka see. It is likely that this was one of the reasons Vader killed him for such a simple mistake.
