Graf Zapalo was a human male who served as the Master of Sciences in the Naboo Royal Advisory Council during the Fall of the Republic. As a minister of the council, he was responsible for advising the monarch of Naboo and guided public policy on the planet of Naboo.[1] He was also the representative of the farmers and the philosophers of Naboo. In addition, Zapalo was a brilliant oceanographer.[2]
In 32 BBY,[3] Zapalo served in the council under Queen Padmé Amidala shortly prior, and during, the Invasion of Naboo.[4] A decade later in 22 BBY,[3] Zapalo was still a member of the council, now advising Queen Jamillia, and was present in the Theed Royal Palace when then Senator Padmé Amidala and Jedi Padawan Anakin Skywalker arrived after a plot to assassinate Senator Amidala.[5]
