Tropes:

  • All There in the Manual: Nearly all of the nameless gladiators whom Ventress fights in the arena receive names and even backstories in other sources, mostly from the online Databank. The arena itself is the Cauldron of Rattatak. However, Dooku's host remains unnamed.
    • The silver droid gladiator with red bug eyes is a Bugnaught.
    • The big guy who gets burnt by the Bugnaught is a Shikitari gladiator named Carl.
    • The Gamorrean gladiator is named Blorga.
    • The mace-wielding reptilian gladiator is named Crockagor, who is slain by...
    • The spider-like gladiator named Krutch, who is slain by...
    • The beast-riding gladiator named Kulltu Kutta. His steed is a Sowsquatch.
    • The black droid gladiator with multiple weapons on its body is named Mantoid, who is slain by...
    • The long-haired Aqualish gladiator is named Grunda Dolma.
    • The human gladiator with twin ball-and-chain weapons is named Flalios.
    • The crocodile-like gladiator with blue eyes is a Rodisar named Nilo.
    • The crocodile-like gladiator with red eyes is a Trogodile named Swyy'm-Ee. The blades he wields are Fi'langs.
    • The crimson droid gladiator with two flame-throwing arms is named L8-L9.
    • The big guy with a blade instead of a right hand is a Houk gladiator named Anchor Blue.
    • The Nikto wielding two knives is named Jasper Mc Knives.
    • The giant beast armed with a boulder on a chain, and the last opponent to fall to Ventress, is named Giant Flog.
    • One of the three aliens who are killed when Ventress sends Flog's weapon flying in to their viewing box is in fact the Giant's owner, named Kesivo.
    • An armoured gladiator with three large, clawed toes on each foot remains unnamed.
  • Deadpan Snarker: After Ventress kills the host of the gladiator match, Dooku notes that he would have applauded her skills... posthumously.
  • Smash Mook: Giant Flog is a hulking, primitive colossus wearing nothing but a loincloth, who fights using a giant piece of rock attached to a chain that he swings like a flail. He's immensely powerful but lacks technique or finesse, which ultimately proves to be his undoing when he fights Asajj Ventress. Her more acrobatic fighting style allows her to easily elude Flog's clumsy swings, severe the chain of his flail and bring down the hulking giant.
  • Wrecked Weapon: Dooku destroys Ventress' lightsabers in their duel to show her just how outclassed she is against him. He then gifts her two new ones that she will use to test her skills against Anakin Skywalker.
