Captain Gregar Typho was the head of security for Senator Padmé Amidala during the Separatist Crisis and Clone Wars. A quiet, simple man native to the backwater world of Naboo, Typho made a name for himself as a Junior Palace Guard during the Battle of Naboo in 32 BBY, in which he fought with distinction, suffering several injuries including the loss of his left eye. Typho then became the personal bodyguard and security advisor for Padmé Amidala in 24 BBY when she abdicated the throne and became a Senator; he inherited the position from his uncle, Panaka, who served as Typho's mentor for much of his life. Typho quickly fell in love with the Senator, but he knew their social castes were too different for any relationship to form. When Amidala's life came under threat in 22 BBY, Typho's paranoia of an assassination attempt coinciding with the Senator's visit to Coruscant to vote on the Military Creation Act saved her life, when a decoy handmaiden was killed in her place. Typho continued to serve Amidala during the Clone Wars, traveling on several diplomatic missions for her.
In 19 BBY, Amidala went to Mustafar with Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker—and never returned. A mourning Typho attended her funeral, feeling guilty for having let her go to Mustafar in the first place. He ultimately decided to travel to Coruscant to find her killer and avenge Amidala's death, but it was months before he could get leave from his duties. During this time, he worked with former Jedi Ferus Olin against the Empire on Naboo. Several months after the Declaration of a New Order, Typho finally made it to Coruscant, and eventually came to the conclusion that Amidala had been "killed" by Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith. Typho lured Vader into a trap and tried to kill him, but the Sith's command of the Force was too strong for him, and Vader killed Captain Typho.
The Clone Wars[]
Gregar Typho is Senator Padme' Amidala's head of security. He often accompanies her to different planets where he thinks it is not safe there. While he was traveling with Padme' and Master Yoda, they received a distress signal on Ilum from Luminara Unduli and her padawan, Barriss Offee. Yoda used a Jedi mind trick and tricked Captain Typho into letting her go. He made the most direct plot to go to Ilum, and he complied. Both he and Padme' watch the lone Jedi Master leave and then they went back into the ship. While he was on the ship, Padme' snuck out with the two droids, R2-D2 and C-3PO. They returned unharmed and the Captain was secretly disturbed. He also went to Bri'ahl and was on Naboo when Dr. Nuvo Vindi was creating a virus.
