C-3PO
C-3PO's character began life as a bumbling Imperial officer captured by the rebels, in the first story treatment of Star Wars: A New Hope. He, along with R2-D2, evolved into a pair of automatons that provide a great deal of support to the Rebel Alliance. Initially, C-3PO was part of Human Cyborg Relations, and was a tall, humanoid android with gleaming skin. He was a greedy, cowardly machine who resembled a fast-talking con-man. Much of the influence for C-3PO's design came from the female android named Maria, from the classic 1929 science-fiction film Metropolis. (SGL, TAS, CHRN)
