Marjolos

Marjolos was a senator of the Galactic Republic who joined the Delegation of 2,000 during the Clone Wars. After the Republic reformed into the Galactic Empire in 19 BBY, Senator Mon Mothma arranged to meet with Marjolos and twelve other members of the now defunct delegation's leadership on the planet Coruscant. At the meeting, Marjolos gathered with the other members of the institutionalists, notably older senators who prioritized the integrity of the Galactic Senate and the Republic above all else.

Mon Mothma proposed to them that they form a new coalition focused on passing the Imperial Rebirth Act, a bill designed to focus political power in the Senate rather then with Galactic Emperor Sheev Palpatine. Marjolos objected to the bill, which accepted the transition to the Empire, and instead stated the only course of action was to reverse that transition and restore the Republic. Mothma later mentioned Marjolos's attendance at the meeting to the Imperial Security Bureau when she was interrogated and eventually went on to pass the bill in the Senate.
