A grim, humorless man for grim, humorless times, Giddean Danu was a loyalist Senator during the end days of the Clone Wars. For his consistent clarity of voice, and unwavering reason and restraint during these tumultuous times, he was invited by Senators Bail Organa and Mon Mothma into a inner circle of alarmed political idealists struggling to develop a plan to counter Chancellor Palpatine's ascent in power. Danu was pragmatic. He recognized how deeply the Senate was corrupted and how few within its ranks acknowledged its moral decay. He felt that the nascent rebellion needed the support of the Jedi order in order to succeed.
