C-3PO

C-3PO (See-Threepio), often referred to as Threepio, was a 3PO-series protocol droid who was functional during the rise of the Galactic Empire. Originally a makeshift construction of a young Anakin Skywalker to assist his mother Shmi in maintaining their slave quarters on Tatooine, Threepio came to meet his astromech counterpart R2-D2 (Artoo) when Queen Padmé Amidala of Naboo sought refuge during the Invasion of Naboo and befriended Skywalker. Meeting Skywalker, Amidala and Artoo again around the outbreak of the Clone Wars, Threepio later followed his astromech companion in various adventures since — despite his fussy and worry-prone personality — often finding himself involved in pivotal moments of galactic history. Programmed primarily for etiquette and protocol, his proficiency in over six million forms of communication proved useful in conducting diplomacy for Senator Amidala during the Age of the Galactic Republic, and later her children Princess Leia Organa and Luke Skywalker during the Galactic Civil War.
