Jar Jar Binks

Jar Jar Binks
 The character everyone either loves or hates, Jar Jar certainly has personality, what with his odd voice that frequently comes out with unusual remarks or incorrect pronunciation. He clumsiness is also a big part of Jar Jar, it's why he was banished from his homeland of Otoh Gunga on the planet Naboo. So the tale goes, Jar Jar crashed Boss Nass's Bongo submarine. One day his clumsiness led him into the path of the fleeing Qui Gon Jinn. Qui Gon actually and accidentally saved the Gungan's life, so he pledged to stick with him, and in the end became quite helpful, when he led the Jedi to his home under water in hope of getting the Gungans onside to fight the battle droid army which was gathering on the surface.
 In the big battle which shortly after began, Jar Jar was made a General, but he was more haphazard than helpful, though by accident he did manage to take down several battle droids. Luckily for the Gungans, Anakin destroyed the droid control ship and the droids simply stopped working and from that point Jar Jar was never again looked down on by his kind.
 Later in time, Jar Jar stepped into Padme shoes as her voice as Senator, while she was away on other business, but he made a fatal mistake, when he was manipulated into giving Palpatine even more power and paving the way for the Sith. No-one knows what happened to poor Jar Jar after the clone wars, maybe he just went back to his home, to live a quieter life.
