Aide

An aide or assistant was a worker or individual who assisted a person of high political or military standing. A number of senators in the Republic Senate, and later, Imperial leaders were assisted by aides.

When Padmé Amidala became senator of Naboo she took on handmaidens as her aides. Her known aides included Dormé, Versé, Cordé, and Teckla Minnau. Later, following the outbreak of the Clone Wars, Amidala hired Moteé and Ellé to replace Versé and Cordé—who had died in an assassination attempt on the senator's life.

During the last days of the Separatist Crisis, Taun We, aide to Lama Su, the Prime Minister of the Ruling Council of Kamino, greeted Obi-Wan Kenobi when the Jedi Master visited the planet.

Amidala's close friend and ally Bail Organa of Alderaan also had several senatorial aides including Sheltay Retrac and later Organa's adopted daughter and Amidala's biological daughter Leia Organa.

During the Clone Wars, Cellheim Anujo served as an aide to Quarren Senator Tundra Dowmeia.

Kilji vassals acted as aides to Kilji Illumine commanding officers and their masters, doing everything for them.

Attendants in the Imperial Security Bureau acted as aides to ISB Supervisors.

Flag Lieutenants acted as the personal aides to admirals in the Imperial Military.
