Biography
"If the Empire has this kind of power, what chance do we have?"

- Tynnra Pamlo

Tynnra Pamlo hailed from the planet Taris, which she represented as a member of the Imperial Senate during the reign of the Galactic Empire. Though a member of the Senate, she was also a member of the Alliance to Restore the Republic and served as the Minister of Education in its Civil Government. In that capacity, she worked closely with Alliance Intelligence and received many reports about atrocities carried out by the Empire, including the Siege of Lasan, the sterilization of Geonosis, and actions on Ghorman.

When the Alliance learned of the existence of the Death Star, an Imperial superweapon capable of destroying entire planets, Pamlo had no doubt of its existence but was wary of launching an attack against it. She wanted to consult with her people about it, and feared that the Alliance had no chance against such power. She also worried that an attack against the Empire would put her homeworld in danger of being destroyed. Shortly after the meeting on Yavin 4, Pamlo traveled back to Coruscant to publicly decry the Imperial battlestation before resigning her office.
