Moralo Eval

Characters

Moralo Eval is a Phindian criminal mastermind and terrorist, who played a significant role in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated television series. Introduced during the fourth season of the show, Eval becomes a chief orchestrator of a plot to kidnap the Republic's Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, a scheme known as "The Box."

As a Phindian, Moralo Eval possesses green skin, a humanoid face marked with tattoos, and elongated ears. His sinister appearance mirrors his cunning and ruthless personality. Eval is known for his ability to manipulate others into doing his bidding, and his schemes often involve the use of deadly traps and treacherous challenges. His intellect and strategic prowess led him to become one of the most wanted criminals in the galaxy.

"The Box" is a crucial part of Moralo's plan to kidnap Palpatine, as it was designed to test the skills of a group of elite bounty hunters. Through grueling challenges constructed inside a cube-like structure, the ultimate goal was for the hunters to prove their worth and be selected for the kidnapping mission. Moralo Eval's twisted genius was reflected in the design of The Box, which featured an array of deathtraps and obstacles designed to push the bounty hunters to their limit.

Eval's plan is eventually intercepted and infiltrated by the Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and his apprentice, Ahsoka Tano. The two Jedi pose as bounty hunters and gain access to The Box and its trials. With their help, a small team of skilled hunters survives the ordeal and escapes with their lives. However, the kidnapping plan is ultimately thwarted by the Jedi, who infiltrate the team and expose the conspiracy.

Despite the failure of the kidnapping attempt, Moralo Eval evades capture for some time. He later joins forces with Sith Lord Count Dooku and his right-hand man, bounty hunter Cad Bane, in an effort to exact revenge on Obi-Wan Kenobi. This alliance leads to the formation of an elite task force of bounty hunters who launch a series of terrorist attacks across Coruscant. Eval's knowledge of explosives and technology proves invaluable in these operations.

However, Eval's reign of terror is ultimately brought to an end when he is tracked down by Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi. After an intense battle, the two Jedi capture Eval and his comrades, putting an end to their destructive schemes. Moralo Eval is then taken into Republic custody and imprisoned, marking the end of his role in the Star Wars saga.

While Moralo Eval did not succeed in his ultimate goals, he remains an iconic villain in the Star Wars universe. His cunning intellect and ruthless tactics place him among the most dangerous and skilled criminals in the galaxy. Fans of the franchise continue to appreciate Eval's character for his contribution to the rich tapestry of the Star Wars story.
