Alpha-Ø2 is a fictional character from the Star Wars Expanded Universe. He was mentioned in Star Wars Insider Magazine #80.
Alpha-Ø2 was one of the few aberrant clones of Jango Fett that was not reconditioned or destroyed by the Kaminoans, during the early period of the Clone Wars. Alpha-Ø2, who became known as Spar to his fellow clones, was among the first 100 test subjects produced by on Kamino. Eight and a half years after his decanting, something happened to trigger the memories of Jango Fett that were hidden in the DNA of the clones, and Alpha-Ø2 became obsessed with rebuilding the Mandalorian supercommandos envisioned by Jaster Mereel.
Alpha-Ø2 deserted Kamino and traveled to Mandalore, where legend held that Mandalore the First established the Mandalorian Crusaders. He managed to draw in the surviving members of the Mandalorian Death Watch, as well as some 200 soldiers from local police forces on Mandalore, to create a mercenary force known as the Mandalorian Protectors. After assuming command of the Protectors, Alpha-Ø2 became known as Mandalore the Resurrector, reviving the ancient tradition of naming leaders after the first Mandalore.
The Protectors joined the fighting of the Clone Wars, carrying out covert operations for the Confederacy of Independent Systems, until all but three of the Protectors were killed. Only Tobbi Dala, Fenn Shysa, and Alpha-Ø2 survived the Clone Wars, but Alpha-Ø2 was a broken shell of the man he once was. His team was attacked on Norval II while trying to eliminate Padmé Amidala, and Alpha-Ø2 just barely survived.
He wandered the galaxy for many years, unsure about his place, until he was apprehended by the Extrictarium Nebula by Ailyn Vel. Vel believed that Alpha-Ø2 was actually Boba Fett, and murdered him in an act of revenge for her mother's death. She took his Mandalorian armor, and after learning that Fett was still alive, used it to masquerade as Fett.
