Character biography

In "The Phantom Menace", he serves as vice-chair of the Galactic Senate, assisting Supreme Chancellor Finis Valorum. He continues to hold this position when Valorum is voted out of office and replaced by Palpatine. Amedda is "among a select few who understand that Palpatine is more than he appears." [Lando Da Pimp, " [http://www.millionaireplayboy.com/entertainment/starwarsdkbook.php Review of "Star Wars Episode III Visual Dictionary" and "Incredible Cross-Sections: The Definitive Guide to the Craft From Episode III"] ," "MillionairePlayboy.com" (2002).]

Throughout the "Star Wars" prequel trilogy, he helps Palpatine gradually take complete control of the Republic and eliminate the Jedi. In "Attack of the Clones", he leads a call in the Senate to grant Palpatine vast emergency powers; in "Revenge of the Sith", he sends out the newly declared Emperor of the galaxy's orders to activate Order 66, instructing the Republic's clone troopers to kill their Jedi generals.
