Verre Sydia

Verde Sydia was a female Senator of the Galactic Republic during the Cold War with the Sith Empire. A staunch opponent of the Empire, Sydia was sometimes considered one of the more outspoken members of the Galactic Senate&mdash;something confused the Jedi Knight known as the Hero of Tython and the astromech droid T7-O1 when the pair discovered evidence that she had used classified Senate accounts to hire the bounty hunter Terrin Sandafar.

As Sandafar had killed an Imperial spy by the name of Eckhorn Baliss to stop a list of Imperial traitors in the Republic from getting out, and later killed the Rodian Shafu in the same manner when the former slaver was getting close to locating the list for the Jedi Order, the duo suspected that Sydia's stance against the Empire was a cover. However, the Senator was later cleared when they discovered that her husband was the true spy, and that he had used his wife's access to the Senate accounts to hire Sandafar.
