## Physical description

### Eye color

Yellow

droid designed to interact with organics, programmedprimarily for etiquette and protocol. He was fluent in over six million forms ofcommunication, and developed a fussy and worry-prone personality throughout his many decades of operation. Along with his counterpart, the astromech droidR2-D2, C-3PO constantly found himself directly involved in pivotal moments ofgalactic history, and aided in saving the galaxy on many occasions.

C-3PO was built from spare parts by Anakin Skywalker, a human slave who lived in Mos Espa, a city on the Outer Rim world of Tatooine. C-3PO's memory waserased, though R2-D2's memory was not. C-3PO and R2-D2 were assigned to the Alderaan cruiser *Tantive IV*, where they served senator Bail Organa for nineteen years. At some point during this time, 3PO's right leg was fitted with a mismatched droid plating.[14]

They then became embroiled in the Galactic Civil War, when Leia Organa of theRebel Alliance entrusted them to bring a copy of the Death Star plans to the Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi on Tatooine. After meeting Skywalker's son Luke and the smuggler Han Solo, the droids helped rescue princess Leia from the Empire's Death Star. They became directly attached to the three humans, helping them and their rebellion defeat the Empire and restore freedom to the galaxy, most notably when he convinced the Ewoks to aid the Rebels at theBattle of Endor.
