"We could have stayed hidden in the swamps forever, if not for those accursed STAPs. They rooted us out of the trees like Gungans searching for gumbols."

Tobias Pall was a Human sergeant of the Royal Naboo Security Forces'[1] Security Guard.[2] During the invasion of the planet Naboo by the Trade Federation[3] in 32 BBY,[5] they, along with a group of fellow Security Force members, were rooted out of the swamps by Single Trooper Aerial Platforms via methods Pall stated were similar to the local Gungans hunting for gumbols.[3]

The officer was present at the Gungan Sacred Place when Queen Amidala of the Naboo—after revealing her true identity and the use of a decoy—approached the Gungan Boss Nass with an offer of alliance in an attempt to drive the Trade Federation off the planet. Pall followed Amidala's lead in kneeling before Nass and stood with her after the Gungan accepted the offer. Members of the Security Guard thereafter accompanied Amidala as the Naboo infiltrated the capital city Theed, reconquered the Theed Royal Palace, and captured Viceroy of the Trade Federation Nute Gunray.[4]
