Iden Stendarr
Republic Old Timer - Senator of Free Nam'ta
![[Image: 2cRERn4.png]](https://i.imgur.com/2cRERn4.png)
Description:
Iden Stendarr was the last representative of Nam’ta III on the Confederate Council, though by now the title carries little weight beyond history.
The soft-spoken, elderly woman was often regarded as something of an ancient relic in Nam’ta’s political landscape—a symbol of a bygone political era.
At nearly a century of age, Stendarr’s energy may have waned, but her political instincts remain razor sharp, honed by decades of public service and countless battles fought not with blasters, but with procedure, rhetoric, and the force of law.
Her career stretched back to the decades before the Great Galactic War. As a youth, Stendarr briefly held a peacetime commission in the Republic military developing a close personal relation with an at the time Lieutenant Willburg.
Using the opportunity less for martial ambition and more to establish a foothold within the Galactic Core. After retiring from active service, she enrolled in the political sciences program at a prestigious university on Coruscant, and eventually returned to Nam’ta to pursue her true calling: politics.
Over the years, she served in nearly every tier of governance, including a term as mayor of a mid-sized city on Nam’ta III, followed by her first election to the Confederate Council. From there, her rise continued steadily—serving as Nam’ta’s Senator to the Galactic Republic, then Minister of Foreign Affairs, and finally as President of the Confederacy itself. It was in that final role that she presided over Nam’ta during one of the most precarious periods in its history: the return of the Sith Empire and the onset of the First Galactic War.
A staunch Republic loyalist, President Stendarr aligned the Confederacy firmly with the Republic war effort—lending Nam’ta’s considerable industrial and gas refining capabilities to fuel the galactic defense.
But the longer the war dragged on, the more unpopular this stance became. As the specter of Imperial invasion loomed, anti-Republic sentiment grew within the Council.
After the Treaty of Coruscant was signed, the Confederacy faced immense pressure to withdraw from the Republic altogether. A firm believer in the democratic process, Stendarr allowed the secession vote to proceed unchallenged, but when the result called for withdrawal, she resigned in protest, refusing to oversee what she saw as a betrayal of Nam’ta’s founding ideals.
For many years after, Stendarr faded from public view. But in recent times, as the Confederacy veered once more toward political crisis, she was elected again to the Council—this time as a quieter figure, serving as a consistent, if restrained, member of the political opposition.
When the Imperial Security Treaty was brought before the Council, Stendarr shocked many of her longtime allies by voting in favor. Her reasons were never explained. In the months that followed, as the Confederacy fractured and open warfare broke out, Stendarr once again vanished from the public eye.
It is now clear where she went.
Throughout the civil conflict, Iden Stendarr was working in secret—coordinating with the Republic, assisting in the evacuation of key assets and individuals, and laying the political groundwork for the coming war. Alongside Azarhan Barracas, she helped form the backbone of the Free Nam’ta government, lending the full weight of her legacy and statecraft to the rebel cause. When the Republic recognized the resistance as a legitimate government-in-exile, it was Iden Stendarr who was named their official Senator—returning to the Galactic Senate not as a representative of a sovereign member world, but as a voice for a people under occupation.
There, she wages a new kind of war.
Speech after speech, she addresses the Senate chamber with all the passion and authority of a woman who has lived through it all. She speaks of duty, of memory, of betrayal and blood. She demands continued support for Free Nam’ta’s struggle.
She pleads for arms, for relief, for a renewed Republic intervention. In her voice is the fire of a generation that remembers what it means to stand for ideals larger than survival. A generation that remembers a time before the war, before the Empire. And in her resolve, the resistance finds both legitimacy and hope.
Iden Stendarr may no longer command troops. But in the halls of Coruscant, she commands something far rarer.
Attention.
