10 Minor Star Wars Characters Who Suffered Horrific Fates
10. Cordé - Star Wars: Episode II - Attack Of The Clones
Following on from Star Wars fans being introduced to the Padmé Amidala decoy known as Sabé during Episode I - The Phantom Menace, another one of the former Queen of Naboo's loyal handmaidens soon popped up in the second prequel trilogy picture.
While Sabé was able to safely make it to the end of that prior film, though, the same sadly couldn't be said for poor Cordé.
Within the opening few minutes of Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones, this brave handmaiden was shockingly murdered whilst disguised as senator Amidala, with her ship being suddenly blown up in an assassination attempt moments after it touched down on Coruscant.
Now sure, she definitely knew the risks the moment she was ordered to throw on Padmé's clothes and pretend to be the VIP by Captain Typho. But, even so, she still suffers a pretty horrendous end for someone just loyally doing what they were told to protect Padme.
And worst of all? In the wake of Captain Typho's awkward line of "I guess I was wrong. There was no danger at all," and the subsequent explosion created by bounty hunter Zam Wesell, all Cordé could muster with her dying words was that she was sorry for failing the senator.
Cordé, you did anything but.
