- "He can't! Raise the shields!"
"We cannot. The shields are still recharging." - ―Trench and TI-99, during the Battle of Christophsis
TI-99 was a T-series military strategic analysis and tactics droid who served in the Confederacy of Independent Systems under Admiral Trench aboard the Providence-class Dreadnought Invincible during the Clone Wars. In 22 BBY, TI-99 assisted Trench in commanding the Separatist blockade over the planet Christophsis, but was later destroyed during the Galactic Republic's assault on the blockade.
Biography
TI-99 served aboard the Invincible under Admiral Trench.
Created by Baktoid Combat Automata,[3] TI-99 was a T-series military strategic analysis and tactics droid who served within the Confederacy of Independent Systems' naval forces during the time of the Clone Wars against the Galactic Republic.[2] In 22 BBY,[6] TI-99 served aboard the Providence-class Dreadnought Invincible, where they assisted in maintaining a Separatist blockade in orbit of the planet Christophsis under the command of Harch Admiral Trench.[2]
However, the blockade was later attacked by a Republic task force led by Jedi General Anakin Skywalker, which was tasked with breaking through the Separatist fleet in order to deliver relief supplies to the forces of Republic Senator Bail Organa on the surface. During the battle, after one of the Republic's supply ships was destroyed by the Separatist blockade, Skywalker ordered his Venator-class Star Destroyer Resolute to advance on the blockade. As it continued its attack on the Invincible, TI-99 proceeded to report the status of the unrelenting Resolute to Trench, who ordered his forces to maintain their position. However, as the Republic fleet fled to recuperate behind the planet's moon, the droid inquired to their commander if they should pursue their enemy, to which Trench reminded his tactical droid that their orders were to maintain a blockade and that they were to not leave their position.[2]
Characteristics
TI-99, a T-series tactical droid[2] who was 1.93 meters in height.[5] They had tan and dark grey colored plating with red highlighting, as well as white sensors. When given orders from Trench, TI-99 was quick to comply with Trench's command.[2]

Star Wars: The Clone Wars Chronological Episode Order on StarWars.com (backup link) and Star Wars: Galactic Atlas, TI-99's destruction must take place in that year.

- ↑ 3.0 3.1 Ultimate Star Wars states that Baktoid Combat Automata manufactures all T-series tactical droids. As TI-99 is a T-series tactical droid, they must have been manufactured by Baktoid Combat Automata.

- ↑ 5.0 5.1 T-series Tactical Droid in the Databank (backup link) states that all T-series tactical droids stand 1.93 meters tall. As "Cat and Mouse" shows TI-99 to be a T-series tactical droid, they too must stand 1.93 meters tall.
