Dewell Bronk

Dewell Bronk was male Kedorzhan who served as a senator in the Galactic Senate of the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars. Toward the end of the war, Bronk was one of many senators who, as part of the Delegation of 2000, signed the Petition of 2000, a document condemning the Supreme Chancellor Palpatines mis-use of emergency powers and the formation of the new office of Moff. In 19 BBY, after the Clone Wars had ended, Bronk attempted to flee the Galactic capital planet of Coruscant, where he had worked, in an attempt to escape the persecution that many members of the delegation were facing from the newly formed Galactic Empire. During his journey off-planet he encountered the Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, who was also fleeing with the infant Luke Skywalker. Kenobi, whom Bronk didn't recognise, saved Bronk from a pair of Clone troopers who attempted to arrest the Kedorzhan, and then revealed the reality of life in exile to the senator, persuading him to try and return to Coruscant and falsely announce his support for the new Empire, better enabling him to help others without fear of persecution. Bronk was best known for his desire to help others, a fact that the Empire used when attempting to track him down.
