| ~ Wolffe |
Wolffe was a practical strategist and competent commander with naval combat experience, having served aboard the Venator-class Star Destroyer Triumphant. Wolffe was also calm and displayed fortitude even in the midst of crisis. Despite being wounded, Wolffe refused to abandon his duty as a soldier. He often used dual DC-17 hand blasters in combat.
Wolffe developed a sense of respect for the Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan Ahsoka Tano after they saved his life during the Battle of Abregado. As a clone commander, Wolffe was bred for combat and naturally favored combat operations over relief missions. Wolffe complied with orders to lead a relief mission to Aleen, but found his escort the protocol droid C-3PO annoying and fastidious. Wolffe also had little appreciation for the eccentric customs of the Aleena species and disregarded King Manchucho's beliefs in the underground Kindalo dwellers as nonsense. Following the bombing of the Jedi Temple hangar, Wolffe and his men took part in a manhunt for Tano through Coruscant's Underworld. Upon discovering the Padawan near a crate of nano-droids, he assumed she was guilty and stunned her with his blaster, despite her pleas for him to let her explain.
Since he removed his control implant, Wolffe was no longer able to be forced into complying with Order 66. Following the Clone Wars, Wolffe and his two comrades Rex and Gregor settled on Seelos and lived in a vintage AT-TE walker. He and Gregor looked up to Rex as their natural leader. Wolffe did not want to have any dealings with the wide galaxy and hid messages that Tano had sent to Rex. Wolffe had an unpleasant initial encounter with the former Great Jedi Purge survivor Kanan Jarrus and believed that the Jedi had come for revenge; only the timely intervention of Rex prevented the escalation of hostilities.
Powers and Abilities
As a clone commander, Wolffe knew how to operate a blaster rifle and an AT-TE walker. He also wore a jetpack during the Battle of Felucia. While Wolffe was a seasoned soldier, he was no match for the Force powers of Asajj Ventress, who trounced him and his men.
Wolffe was also a competent pilot and was able to pilot an Aggressive ReConnaissance-170 starfighter at one point and the VCX-100 light freighter Ghost during the Liberation of Lothal.
