Legend

this native of the planet Adin was a former Imperial supporter who was elected to the New Republic's Senate by his people, during the initial stages of Adin's membership in the Republic. Although Leia Organa-Solo doubted that his election was fair, she nevertheless was forced to recognize his position. Like others of his race, Meido was a thin being with a crimson face which sported thin, white lines that grew brighter as he angered. Meido had two fingers on each hand. He admitted to supporting the Empire during its height, but proclaimed that he was in support of Leia's Republic. When Dolph bombed the Senate Assembly Chamber, it was Meido who supported Leia's attempts to investigate the bombing. However, he was really manipulating her into a position where the official investigation would not meet his expectations. Meido called for an independent investigation, with himself as chairman, claiming that the official search was too slow and somewhat biased. This fit into Dolph's plans perfectly, for it allowed Dolph to plant more incriminating evidence against Leia and Han Solo. In the aftermath of the bombing, Meido's Senate position was officially voted on, and he was granted full Senatorial status. He then brought forth circumstantial evidence that linked Han Solo to the Senate bombing. He voiced strong opposition to Leia's rule, and condemned her for leaving the Republic to find Dolph on Almania. However, after Dolph's plans were exposed, Meido admitted his part in the plan and was very apologetic to Leia.
