Quarsh Panaka/Legends

Captain Panaka first appeared in The Phantom Menace. He was appointed head of security on Naboo shortly after King Veruna, the former King of Naboo, was killed. He was the head of the security force during the Trade Federation invasion and when Queen Amidala's term as queen of Naboo ran out, he stayed to protect Queen Jamillia. His nephew, Captain Typho, is assigned to protect Amidala.

Panaka was later promoted to Moff when the Galactic Empire came to power. A gift he gave to Palpatine lay in his receiving chamber aboard the second Death Star.
