Dao


Dao was a human who held the rank of admiral within the naval branch of the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars.

Biography


In 22 BBY, Dao participated in a planetary engagement of the world of Ryloth, where he commanded a relief supply fleet of Republic Star Destroyers. During the battle, the Republic officer and his fleet attempted to repel a Separatist Alliance blockade of warships led by Neimoidian Captain Mar Tuuk in Ryloth's orbit.

During the battle, the Republic officer's forces had been rendered critically low on resources and were in no position to provide aid to the forces of Jedi General Ima-Gun Di on the surface. Soon thereafter, Dao was killed amid a conversation with the Jedi High Council, when an explosion claimed his Star Destroyer. As a result of Dao's death, the Separatist blockade was able to establish a planetary defense in orbit, while Di's forces continued to battle the Separatist Droid Army below.
