Well, I'd love to hear more about Tirian or the Mayor from Dust. Or King Lune from Warsverse. Otherwise, Jar Jar Binks.

Mayor was never as fanatical as his mother or his sibs, but he did believe. He lost his faith between the beginning of the Calormene Occupation and the start of Dust -- not due to the Occupation and the false Aslan (though that didn't really help), but because there was a girl (well, a lady tiger) that he was sweet on, but unfortunately she turned out to be an undercover Provost's Guard and then also she was murdered by a rival gang.

Jar Jar was no longer active in politics by the time of the OT, but he was still around, and was actually a family friend of the Organas; Leia knew him personally. Despite a fairly long acquaintance, she was flabbergasted to find out that he'd personally known Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi, which he blurted out the first time he met Luke.

The Jar Jar question came from last night when I was thinking of my own meme prompt about what Leia thinks of Vader. Assuming he is still alive I can't help thinking he would have a lot of background on their parents, though apparently in the Star Wars EU no one knows that Padme was Luke and Leia's mother.
