Christo / Legends Christo was a Quarren male who served as a senator of the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars . Loyal to the constituents who had appointed him to the Senate , Christo placed their needs before those of all others during his career , even the clone troopers who had been bred to fight for the Grand Army of the Republic . In 21 BBY , when Senator Halle Burtoni proposed a drastic increase in clone trooper production , Christo initially considered voting for the bill , especially after several opponents to the measure were pressured into supporting it by bounty hunters . However , he rethought his position following an impassioned Senatorial address from Senator Padmé Amidala . Biography . A male Quarren , Christo lived during the final decades of the Galactic Republic ' s regime . He was eventually elected to the Republic Senate , and he remained loyal to the people who had chosen him as their Senatorial representative . While on Coruscant to attend sessions at the Senate Building , Christo lived in an apartment in a residential block on the galactic capital , one that provided an expansive view of the skyline of Galactic City . During his career in the Senate , Christo came to admire fellow Senator Bail Prestor Organa of Alderaan , whom many saw as a voice of reason amidst the frequently unruly clamor within the Senate . At the time of the Clone Wars , Christo supported the Republic ' s production of clone troopers , who were bred for the Grand Army of the Republic ' s campaign against the Confederacy of Independent Systems , to the point that he considered their purpose to be little more than soldiers marked for death . In 21 BBY , the war ' s second year , Senator Halle Burtoni of Kamino , representing the Kaminoan cloners who manufactured the Republic ' s clone troopers , introduced an emergency appropriations bill to order five million additional clones for the war effort . Christo considered giving the bill his support , especially after some senators who were opposed to the measure were set upon by bounty hunters , who pressured them into endorsing it . However , his as - yet undecided position earned him a visit from Senators Padmé Amidala and Onaconda Farr , two of the bill ' s main opponents , who desperately sought support for their side in the Senate . At first , Christo dismissed Amidala and Farr ' s claims that the troop increase for the Grand Army would mean greater death tolls on the war front — as he saw it , the clones were simply serving their purpose , regardless of whether they lived or not . However , when Amidala mentioned that Bail Organa , who was also against the bill , would soon be speaking before the full Senate , Christo reconsidered his position , though he only promised that he would listen to what Organa had to say . When the time came to vote on Burtoni ' s bill , Organa was severely injured by bounty hunters and was unable to speak . Instead , the scheduled address from the bill ' s opposition was delivered by Amidala , who won support in the Senate by arguing that the longer the war went on , the more it would consume funds for the Republic citizenry ' s basic services . She supplemented her case with a moving account of how the war had affected the life of an everyday citizen — one of her handmaiden s , Teckla Minnau . Christo joined in the thunderous applause that followed Amidala ' s speech , which resulted in many senators joining the opposition to the bill . Despite the efforts of Amidala ' s coalition , however , the bill was eventually passed by the majority of the Senate . Personality and traits . A pink - skinned male Quarren with blue eyes , Christo lived in a Coruscant apartment decorated with an aquarium , potted plants , and various works of art , including a sculpture . As a senator of the Republic , he was devoted to his constituents and placed their needs and views before all others during his career , as his people had selected him as their voice in the Senate . He did not regard the Republic ' s clone troopers with much importance , believing that they had been created to die for the Republic war machine . When Padmé Amidala and Onaconda Farr tried to persuade him to vote against Halle Burtoni ' s bill , Christo recognized their ideology but was not willing to die for such principles . By instead supporting the measure , he sought to avoid being attacked for opposing the bill , as had been the case with several members of the opposition , including Farr himself . During Amidala ' s visit , he remained uncertain of how he would vote and was unswayed by her argument . Like many others in the Senate , Christo held Bail Organa in high esteem , as the Alderaanian senator was regarded as a voice of reason amidst the often indecisively argumentative Senate . After discovering that Organa was preparing to speak before the Senate on behalf of the opposition to Burtoni ' s bill , Christo ' s respect for him caused him to reconsider his endorsement of the measure . Although he intended to listen to Organa ' s address before the Senate , he did not promise Amidala ' s coalition anything more than his attention . He eventually did rethink his stance on the matter following Amidala ' s moving speech to the Senate . Behind the scenes .

He was voiced in the episode by voice actor Jason Spisak .
