Kit Fisto is a striking example of an alien Jedi, a Nautolan with large eyes, and a gathered tangle of flexible tentacle-tresses extending from his head. He is at home in the waters of aquatic planets, like his native Glee Anselm. As a Jedi Master, Fisto has an intense focus, particularly in combat. He is also much more laid back and capable of enjoying a hearty chuckle than some of his humorless colleagues, however.
Shortly after the Clone Wars began, Kit Fisto ascended to the Jedi Council. Kit was an accomplished Jedi Master, having trained a Padawan Nahdar Vebb.
Kit Fisto tracked General Grievous down to the cyborg warlord's lair on the third moon of Vassik. The Nautolan Jedi Master dueled against Grievous, but was forced to escape when outnumbered by Grievous' bodyguard droids.
Kit was part of the Jedi taskforce assembled by Mace Windu to rescue captives from the Separatist stronghold on Geonosis. Fisto fought well against the Geonosian and battle droid forces, being one of the few Jedi to survive the extended melee within the carved walls of the execution arena. When Republic reinforcements arrived to spark the first battle of the epic Clone Wars, Kit Fisto led a special unit of clone troopers into the thick of the conflict.
During the battle within the Geonosian execution arena, Kit Fisto helped end C-3PO's confused ordeal as a hybrid battle droid by knocking the malfunctioning droid over, and pinning it underneath a super battle droid.
Kit Fisto was one of a group of Jedi Masters gathered together by Mace Windu to arrest Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. Palpatine refused to go quietly; he sprang forth, imbued with the power of the Force, and cut down Kit Fisto.
