Background
Though originally banished from Otoh Gunga by Boss Nass, Jar Jar was later assigned general of the Gungans during the Battle of Naboo, because he helped to bring the Gungans and the Human population of Naboo together. Being clumsy, he had made his way on board a starship with Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Queen Amidala, and others. After escaping the Trade Federation blockade, and landing on Tatooine, he was present during the Podrace, in which Anakin Skywalker won himself, and those onboard the ship a passage to Cosuscant.
During the Clone Wars, he acted as a Jedi to try to reclaim Padme on Rodia. He was also caught in a virus bomb laboratory with Ahsoka Tano, Captain Rex, and Padmé. He was later made representative of Naboo, and was the first Gungan to represent his people. He present for the respective funerals of Qui-Gon and Padmé.
