DESCRIPTION
Eli Fitzgerald (born 30 BBY) is a popular, conservative politician from Ralltiir and the current "caretaker" Chief of State of the New Republic while Leia Organa Solo is on maternity leave. He ascended to the position in 11 ABY as an outspoken, prior member of the Senate's influential Defense Council, whose caustic and cocksure oratory earned him a reputation as an ardent, but articulate opponent of the Imperial Remnant, taxes, and "big government" liberalism. He is a former sentience rights attorney, instrumental to the Rebel Alliance during the resistance on Ralltiir (approximately 5 BBY to 4 ABY). He has one daughter, Jena, to wife Sena, now divorced.
PERSONALITY
Fitzgerald is, privately, a thoughtful and cordial man with a nuanced understanding of politics, but who cultivates a public persona as an uncompromising, populist ideologue. He is passionate about his principles, and is genuinely pugnacious in their defense, but he is otherwise a temperate man with an ebullient sense of humor, well liked by his colleagues and the public (with a 62% approval rating). Ever since the Imperial subjugation of his homeworld, he has had a deep mistrust of concentrated, government power over individuals; a belief that is reflected broadly in his politics. He is also a caring father, insisting on time to spend with his daughter on Ralltiir, whenever possible.
