He helped Anakin build a pod racer so he would enter the competition and win for Qui-Gon so they could gain parts to repair his ship. He was shown to Padmé Amidala and R2-D2 where he was at the time 'naked' (referred by R2-D2), as he had no coverings and his inner mechanisms were showing.

Despite this, he claims to hate space travel.įilm Appearances Star Wars: The Phantom MenaceĬ-3PO was built on the desert planet of Tatooine by the young Anakin Skywalker, who was a slave to Watto before Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn freed him and took him back to Coruscant to be trained as a Jedi. It is likely that he learned this skill from Anakin at some point after the Battle of Geonosis. Master Pilot: As a protocol droid, C-3PO is highly skilled in piloting many types of flying crafts.His programing, however, forbids him from translating ur-Kittât (an ancient Sith language) from Ochi's blade.

He even understands sign language, as evidenced in episode 1396 of Sesame Street when he and R2 meet Linda. Multilingual: As a protocol droid, C-3PO is capable of fluently speaking over seven (originally six) million different forms of communication, including Basic, Ancient Askajian, B'rknaa language, Bimmini, Bith, Bocce, Binary, Ewokese, Gacerian, Gamorrese, Horansi, Huttese, Ithorese, Janguine, Jawa Trade language, Myneyrsh, Old Tarmidian, Psadan, Shyriiwook, Ssi-ruuvi, Talzzi, Ubese, Tusken, Yeb language, and Yuzzum.C-3PO's inability to lie came at a disadvantage when he and his companions were captured by Ewoks prior to the Battle of Endor. Despite his loyalty and commitment, C-3PO is generally unable to lie or to keep secrets due his programming, although he was able to keep the fact that Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala were husband and wife to himself. When placed in danger, C-3PO has a tendency to panic as shown on several occasions. Unlike C-3PO's astromech counterpart R2-D2, he likes to stick to routine and does not respond well to change. As a droid, he exhibits much loyalty and commitment to his masters and seeks to serve them to his best ability. 3PO also has some knowledge on taunts.Ĭ-3PO is known for his polite, fastidious, and worry-prone personality. C-3PO is rather polite and quirky toward his companions, especially R2-D2, although he can be sarcastic and indignant when mistreated by individuals like Jabba the Hutt. He is cowardly, though he has shown some instances of ingenuity and even deviance. 4.2 Star Tours: The Adventures ContinueĬ-3PO is programmed for over thirty secondary functions besides protocol.3.3 Disneyland's 35th Anniversary Celebration.
