Galactic Senate Althea Tallah

[Nor'baal]

Althea Tallah was a female noble from Naboo, who worked as a member of the Naboo Diplomatic Corp, serving as a member of the Royal Advisory Council. Born to a well established Noble family, the Tallahs, she was to assume her first public role directly out of the Legislative Youth Program, assuming a position as a junior consul for the Plasma Energy Trade Commission.

Establishing a name for herself as a smooth operator, with a deft touch for diplomacy, and a keen eye for finding friends and allies in the most unlikely of places, Althea was approached to run for the Theed Council, winning a seat by the time she was twenty-two years old. After serving a term on the Council, she was invited to join the Naboo Royal Advisory Council and has been there ever since.

Personality & Traits

Belonging to a longstanding dynasty of politicians on Naboo, the Tallah family boasts a sizable number of monarchs, senators and businesspersons in its long history, and as such, Althea was under pressure to live up to the expectations of her family from the word go. Raised to strive for the very best she can be, Althea is an ambitious individual, but fiercely loyal to her homeworld and the ideals it stands for.

An elegant woman, Althea takes pride in her appearance, and mannerisms, often relying on the charm offensive to win people over at the first instance - adopting the classic style of the Nobility of Naboo wherever she goes. However, this somewhat clashes with other aspects of her personality, as, having been around for some time, she is fully aware the galaxy can be a nasty place, capable of horrendous things. Prone to swearing, and taking underhand actions when needed, Althea is a consummate political operator, willing to go to whatever lengths are needed to get the job done.

Ambitious, Althea knows her own talents and is fully aware that in order to use them, she has to be in the correct position to do so. She firmly believes she is the best in her field, and combined with her stubbornness and analytical eye, she is able to work behind the scenes, with all manner of shadowy figures, to get the job done.

She is accompanied by a handmaiden most of the time, in the traditional Naboo style.
