Star Wars Inside Intel: The Four Sages of Dwartii

Star Wars Inside Intel is a StarWars.com feature where Lucasfilm Story Group member Emily Shkoukani, whose job is to know as much about a galaxy far, far away as possible, explores obscure facts about Star Wars lore and continuity. In this installment, Emily discusses the Four Sages of Dwartii…

Having only ever appeared in the Star Wars galaxy as statues, the Four Sages of Dwartii have quite a history to them. Audiences first got a glimpse of these statues in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones and Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, where they decorated Chancellor Palpatine’s office. Since then the statues have consistently shown up in Star Wars storytelling, including in animation, books, and comics. So, who are the Four Sages of Dwartii?
