The role of a Naboo Royal Handmaiden is, by design, much deeper than appearance suggests. At the most basic level, they assist with everyday tasks, including choosing gowns and styling hair. But they’re also advisers, confidantes and bodyguards, trained in deception, defense, and strength in service to their queen. In The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones, we meet Padmé Amidala’s retinue, particularly Sabé, Cordé, and Dormé.  …The concept of handmaidens as decoys goes all the way back to George Lucas’s rough draft of Star Wars. Princess Leia Organa had two handmaidens, and in order to keep her out of the Empire’s hands, the handmaiden who most resembled her took her place. The idea found new life decades later with the Naboo Royal Handmaidens.

I’m the right hand of Padmé Amidala Naberrie, and I always will be, even if someday she decides to follow her path somewhere else. I wouldn’t trade my relationship with her for anything in the galaxy.
