Padmé Amidala's Interests
|
| General | This layout was made by me you silly people. :P
I know there is no way to convince you that this is not one of their tricks
but I dont care.
I am me.
My name is Valerie.
I dont think Ill live much longer, and I wanted to tell someone about my life.
This is the only autobiography that I will ever write and, God
Im writing it on toilet paper.
I was born in Nottingham in 1985.
I dont remember much about those early years, but I do remember the rain.
My grandmother owned a farm in Tottle Brook
and she used to tell me that God was in the rain.
I passed my 11 Plus and went to girls grammar.
It was at school that I met my first girlfriend.
Her name was Sarah.
It was her wrists.
They were beautiful.
I thought that we would love each other forever.
I remember our teacher telling us
that it was an adolescent phase that people outgrew.
Sarah did.
I didnt.
In 2002, I fell in love with a girl named Christina.
That year, I came out to my parents.
I couldnt have done it without Chris holding my hand.
My father wouldnt look at me.
He told me to go and never come back.
My mother said nothing.
But Id only told them the truth.
Was that so selfish?
Our integrity sells for so little, but its all we really have.
It is the very last inch of us.
But within that inch
we are free.
Id always known what I wanted to do with my life
and in 2015 I stared in my first film, The Salt Flats.
It was the most important role of my life.
Not because it was my career
but because that was how I met Ruth.
The first time we kissed
I knew I never wanted to kiss any other lips but hers again.
We moved to a small flat in London together.
She grew Scarlet Carsons for me in our window box
and our place always smelt of roses.
Those were the best years of my life.
But Americas war grew worse and worse and eventually came to London
After that, there were no roses anymore.
Not for anyone.
I remember how the meaning of words began to change.
How unfamiliar words like collateral and rendition became frightening
while things like Norsefire and the Articles of Allegiance became powerful.
I remember how different became dangerous.
I still dont understand it.
Why they hate us so much.
They took Ruth while she was out buying food.
Ive never cried so hard in my life.
It wasnt long till they came for me.
It seems strange that my life should end in such a terrible place.
But for three years, I had roses and apologized to no one.
I shall die here.
Every inch of me shall parish.
Every inch
But one.
An inch.
It is small, and it is fragile
and it is the only thing in the world worth having.
We must never lose it or give it away.
We must never let them take it from us.
I hope that, whoever you are, you escape from this place.
I hope that the word turns and that things get better.
But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean
when I tell you that even though I dont know you
and even though I may never meet you
laugh with you, cry with you
or kiss you
I love you.
With all my heart
I love you.
Valerie.

Padmé Amidala's Blurbs |
About me:
When I was younger, I met an angelic - looking child who looked exactly like me: only blonde and blue eyed. I was about six when I met
Namin. She was so beautiful. When I told my sister of my findings she naturally thought I was crazy and apparently my mother did too. But
Namin continued to return and talk with me. It was as if we were sisters - but I was to discover later that she was a part a me that was never supposed to
exist. She never comes to me anymore. I haven't seen her since I was a child. But I still believe that she's real...
Born Padm Naberrie, Queen Amidala was the formal name of the royal leader of Naboo. As a child, Amidala was prodigiously talented and extremely well educated. She had long been interested in public service, volunteering in the Refugee Relief Movement as a youth. Her efforts helped in the Shadda-Bi-Boran exodus. At the age of eight, she joined the Apprentice Legislature and became an Apprentice Legislator at age 11. By 14, she was elected Queen of Naboo.
During the Trade Federation siege of Naboo, the scheming Neimoidians tried to force the strong-willed Amidala to sign a treaty that would legitimize a brazenly illegal occupation. Amidala refused, and was sentenced to a prison camp. En route to incarceration, Amidala was freed by Jedi ambassadors. They took the Queen and part of her retinue to Coruscant, to plead her case before the Senate with the help of Naboo's galactic representative, Senator Palpatine.
On Coruscant, Amidala learned of the inefficiencies of galactic politics, watching as Trade Federation political maneuvering stalemated her plea. Following advice from Senator Palpatine, Amidala called for a Vote of No Confidence in Supreme Chancellor Valorum.
Fed up with the Senate, Amidala returned to Naboo. She requested aid from the native Gungans in freeing her captured capital. During the Battle of Naboo, Amidala infiltrated her own palace, and forced Neimoidian Viceroy Nute Gunray to end the occupation. The cowardly Neimoidians, having their armies defeated, capitulated and freedom was brought back to Naboo.
While Queen Amidala was the ruler of Naboo she had a large staff of advisors and aides that handled the day-to-day affairs. Sio Bibble, for instance, was Naboo's governor. Captain Panaka was Amidala's loyal bodyguard and head of security. Ric Oli was the pilot of the Queen's gleaming Royal Starship and leader of Bravo Flight.
Perhaps most important in Amidala's entourage were her five handmaidens. Sache, Yane, Rabe, Sabe and Eirtae not only helped the Queen with her intricate gowns, hairstyles and make-up, but they were also trained in self-defense. When in danger, Queen Amidala disguised herself as one of her handmaidens, and adopted her less formal name of
Padm. When disguised as Padm, Sab assumed the role of Queen in her place.
When her terms ended, Amidala was constitutionally obligated to step down as Queen, although the public would have easily backed an amendment allowing her to serve longer. Though she had every right to retire and concentrate on her personal life, Amidala continued to be passionate about public service. At the request of the new Naboo monarch, Queen Jamillia, Amidala served as Senator of Naboo, taking the position once occupied by Palpatine. In a galaxy undergoing tumultuous changes, her outspoken nature shone as a beacon of reason and rationality in an increasingly fragmented Senate.
With the rise of a Separatist movement that threatened the stability of the Republic, Amidala was one of the few championing a peaceful resolution to the crisis. Alarmist Senators rallied to create a military force to protect the Republic, but Amidala led the opposition against the Military Creation Act. She believed such a measure would inevitably lead to hostilities against the Separatists.
On the day of the Military Creation Act vote, Amidala's starship was attacked upon arrival at Coruscant. Seven people, including her decoy Cord, died in the explosion. Some suspected that disgruntled spice miners from the moons of Naboo were the culprit, but Amidala believed that it was actually Count Dooku, leader of the Separatists, behind the attack. In truth, it was an old enemy, Nute Gunray, who was behind the bounty hunters hired to finally silence the young woman from Naboo, though that would go undiscovered for some time.
At the behest of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, Amidala was placed under the protection of the Jedi Knights. Amidala was once again reunited with Obi-Wan Kenobi and his apprentice Anakin Skywalker, whom she had not seen in a decade. A second assassination attempt by the bounty hunter Zam Wesell revealed just how gravely in danger Amidala was.
Anakin escorted Padm to Naboo, where she would be sequestered while the Jedi investigated the attacks against her. In moments of quiet solitude against the beautiful landscape of Naboo's Lake Country, Anakin and
Padm bonded, rekindling an affectionate friendship that had been interrupted ten years ago, and falling into a deeper love.
It was a love forbidden to both. As per the tenets of the Jedi Code, Anakin could not enter into a romantic relationship, and
Padm needed to focus on her career. Despite their strong feelings, it was Padm who remained the realist, rebuffing Anakin's overtures while attempting to still her own heart.
Anakin's love for Padm was not all that was troubling him. He suffered from terrible nightmares of his mother in danger. When he could bear it no more, Anakin returned to Tatooine, with
Padm in tow, to find Shmi Skywalker.
Anakin did find his dying mother, and lashed out in vengeance against the Tusken Raiders that had tortured her. When he returned to
Padm, he confessed his actions, and he collapsed with shame and despair over what he had done.
Padm saw the wounded, sobbing youth, and let her compassion guide her heart as she comforted him.
Shortly thereafter, Anakin and Padm voyaged to Geonosis, to rescue Obi-Wan who had been captured by Separatist forces.
Padm hoped to use her diplomatic skills to parley with the Separatists, but she and Anakin were captured by the Geonosians. Placed on trial for espionage, Amidala and Anakin were sentenced for execution.
Faced with overwhelming evidence of her mortality, Padm lowered her emotional guard and professed her love to Anakin. The two were then placed in an execution arena alongside Obi-Wan, and three deadly beasts were unleashed upon them, much to the delight of the Geonosian spectators. Though sustaining a glancing slash from a ferocious nexu,
Padm held her own, and disappointed her would-be executioners.
The spectacle was cut short with the arrival of Jedi reinforcements, and then the opening battle of the historic Clone Wars. Despite her initial objections to a Republic army,
Padm nonetheless fought alongside the newly created clone troopers against the Separatist droid forces.
After the Battle of Geonosis, Anakin escorted Padm Amidala back to Naboo. There, at a secluded lake retreat, the same place where their forbidden love began to blossom, the two were quietly wed in a ceremony witnessed only by C-3PO and R2-D2. This tranquil expression of love preceded some of the darkest moments to be faced by Amidala and by the galaxy as a whole.
Amidala continued to serve the Senate faithfully, though she was often distracted by the growing career of her secret husband. Anakin was becoming a war hero known throughout the Republic, and while the citizens thrilled at his exploits, she was deeply worried for his safety. The few moments they could snatch together were all too brief. The war was concentrated in the Outer Rim, far from Coruscant, and
Padm saw very little of Anakin. By the time the Outer Rim Sieges ended, Padm had stunning news to deliver to Anakin --- he was to be a father.
The war years saw the continued transformation of the Republic. To efficiently battle the Separatists on numerous fronts, Chancellor Palpatine enacted executive decrees that saw more power funneled to his office, stripping away the last of the Senate's lackluster ability to wage war. Many welcomed the handover of power, particularly the corrupt politicians.
A small group of Senator grew increasingly wary of Palpatine's amendments. Senators Bail Organa and Mon Mothma spoke of drastic alternatives in clandestine gatherings.
Padm was one of these secretive idealists, along with Senators Fang Zar, Giddean Danu, Chi Eekway, Terr Taneel and Bana Breemu. They swore to keep their discussions absolutely secret, even from their closest associates.
Padm agreed, even though she feared Anakin would sense her duplicity... and perhaps misconstrue it for something else.
Though early talk of action against Palpatine was carefully couched and measured so as not to border on extreme acts of sedition,
Padm favored a diplomatic solution within the boundaries of the law. She even asked Anakin to use his relationship with Palpatine to press for a peaceful resolution to the war, but her beleaguered husband resented the request. He wanted such overtures to remain in political circles, where they belonged. Her doubts about the system troubled Anakin. To his ears, she was starting to sound like a Separatist.
Padm began collecting the pledges of what would become the Delegation of 2,000, a group of disaffected Senators formally critical of Palpatine's rule.
She presented the Delegation's concerns to Palpatine, who disregarded them. Palpatine carefully planted seeds of doubt of
Padm's intentions in Anakin's mind, even as he continued to exploit Skywalker's fears about losing her.
Anakin was plagued with terrifying nightmares of Padm dying during childbirth. Given his prophetic dreams that predicted the death of his mother, these visions greatly unsettled Anakin. He could not stand to lose
Padm, and would do anything to keep her with him. A gateway to dark powers that could unnaturally preserve life beckoned to Anakin -- it was a power that could be achieved by allying himself to Darth Sidious, Dark Lord of the Sith.
Padm, like the rest of the Republic, was unaware that Chancellor Palpatine was in fact a Sith Lord. He lured Anakin to the dark side, and Skywalker knelt before him, becoming Darth Vader, his apprentice. As Vader, Anakin led an ambush on the Jedi Temple, and traveled to Mustafar to kill the leadership of the Separatists, effectively bringing an end to the Clone Wars.
It was Obi-Wan who told Padm the truth. He had seen evidence of Anakin's transgressions.
Padm was stunned. Unable to grasp this dark reality, she traveled to Mustafar to confront Anakin. Unbeknownst to her, Obi-Wan Kenobi stowed away aboard her ship.
It was just as Obi-Wan described. Padm could not reason with Anakin. In his twisted perception, he had done all of his wicked deeds to better the galaxy for their union, to make the corrupt Republic into a just Empire for their children. Deluded with power, Anakin even promised that he could depose the Emperor, and make the galaxy exactly what he and
Padm wanted it to be.
Padm was devastated by Anakin's transformation. When her enraged husband witnessed Obi-Wan emerging from her starship, he jumped to the worst of conclusions. Anakin saw the most stinging in a long line of betrayals -- now his wife had brought his former mentor to Mustafar to kill him. Anakin raised his hand and caught
Padm in a telekinetic chokehold. Padm gasped for breath as life began to escape from her.
Anakin released his grip as he faced Obi-Wan, and Padm collapsed. As Kenobi and Skywalker dueled in the Mustafar collection facility, C-3PO and R2-D2 faithfully carried her inert form aboard her starship. Despite the abbreviated medical suite aboard her ship, or the full medical facility at a refuge on Polis Massa, her life signs continued to dwindle.
Padm remained strong enough to give birth. In the strange alien facility of Anakin's nightmares, she gave birth to twins -- Leia and Luke Skywalker. Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, and Bail Organa vowed to keep the children safe.
Padm struggled to survive and succeeded with the help of Obi-Wan, the children and a small tinge from Anakin - yet, through all of the
occurrences she continued to follow Anakin. Not long after Amidala gave birth to Naberrie.
That's when the affair began between Padm and Obi-Wan Kenobi - and after some time Anakin had found out. They divorced and went their
separate ways: Padm always sticking close to the sides of her children
