Lama Su (ARC)

Lama Su was a male Kaminoan who served as Prime Minister of Kamino at the beginning of the Clone Wars, and a loyal ally to the Jedi Order. As head of the ruling council of Kamino colony governors, he was one of the select Kaminoans to deal directly with offworlders. Despite this, he was still rather ignorant of Human customs and behavior.

Creating the Clone Army
Shortly after the Invasion of Naboo, Lama Su accepted a commission by Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas to create a clone army for the Galactic Republic. His limited knowledge of the galaxy, gave him no clue as to the massive impact this would have on the Republic. After the Cloning progress started, he and Sifo-Dyas became good friends, and sometimes visit each other during the time when Chancellor Palpatine took office. Knowing that Sifo-Dyas and Lama couldn't spend a lot of time, Lama promised that he will one day see him again.

Meeting Obi-Wan Kenobi
Ten years later, Lama Su welcomed Obi-Wan Kenobi to Kabino and took him on a tour of the facility. He was upset to hear about the death of Sifo-Dyas. He eagerly explained the cloning process, as well as the behavioral conditioning and combat training of the clone troopers, who were now fully trained and ready for combat. He was so focused on making sure that the Kaminoans would obtain their bonus payment for the first shipment of trained clone warriors, that he dismissed Kenobi's seeming lack of knowledge of the army's existence as either a clever test or an elaborate form of politeness.

Attack on Kabino
On 21 BBY, Lama helped the Jedi coordinate the defense of Kamino during the opening stage of the Clone Wars. Sometime after the attack on the Rishi Station, the Confederacy of Independent Systems attacked the cloning facilities again. He assisted High General Shaak Ti in coordinating the Republic's defense and strike force from the command center. he was later killed when a couple Aqua Droids breached inside, and shot him dead. Shakk Ti honored him as well-known ally to the Jedi Order.
