Riyo Chuchi was a female Pantoran politician who represented the moon Pantora in the Senates of the Galactic Republic and of its successor state, the Galactic Empire, from the Clone Wars to the early reign of the Empire. Young, insecure, and timid at the start of her career, Chuchi grew into an outspoken and strong leader during the Clone Wars, upholding her ideals and challenging her enemies in efforts to maintain a fair and just government. By the time of the Empire, Chuchi resolved to use her position of power to protect the rights of the former soldiers of the Grand Army of the Republic, which had been comprised of commissioned clone troopers. Hoping to defend and represent the voiceless in the Imperial Senate, Chuchi positioned herself as a roadblock to the Empire's early plans for military expansion.
