This article covers the Canon version of this subject.  Click here for Wookieepedia's article on the Legends version of this subject. 

Clone Commander[2] Deviss was an Advanced Recon Commando[3] and clone trooper officer[2] who served in the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Their equipment included red outlined Phase II clone trooper armor, a pauldron, a kama, macrobinoculars, a DC-15A blaster rifle, and two DC-17 repeater hand blasters.[2]

Like all clone troopers, Deviss was created on the planet of Kamino based on the genetic template of the human male bounty hunter Jango Fett, stood 1.83 meters and had tan skin.[1] Deviss received training through the ARC program[4] to prepare them for special missions.[3]

Behind the scenes

Deviss was first mentioned in the new Star Wars canon in the 2015 reference book Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know.[2] Deviss is based on Clone Commander Bly's original color design, which was changed to better match the environment of the world Felucia from Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith.[5] While the red clone commander does not appear in the movie,[6] he was pictured, albeit unnamed, in the Star Wars Legends continuity in Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith: The Visual Dictionary, a guide book published in 2005 and written by James Luceno,[7] and used as the basis of a "Clone Commander" figure for the film's toy line by Hasbro.[8] The commander was later identified as Deviss and received the designation CT-65/91-6210 in Guide to the Grand Army of the Republic, a reference article published in the eighty-fourth issue of the Star Wars Insider magazine.[9]
