R.H. Chedda was the founder of Cheddatown, a city on the Ortolan homeworld of Orto, and creator of Chedda Toe Jam Lotion, a Chedda-brand foot lotion produced by the Chedda Corporation. After the lotion had been in production for almost half a century at least, Chedda was the wealthiest citizen on Orto during the reign of the Galactic Empire. At this time, he had a holographic billboard showing his disingenuously smiling face displayed at the bottom of Broadway Street in Cheddatown.[1]
The musician Maximilian Rebo drove the hovertruck of the Two Gungans and Hovertruck movers through the billboard of Chedda while flying through the air toward Cheddatown spaceport after collidiing with a Cheddatown police blockade at the base of Broadway Street. Several years later, Rebo recalled the incident after being blown from the deck of the sail barge[1] Khetanna[2] when it was destroyed[1] in 4 ABY.[3]
Behind the scenes
R.H. Chedda was mentioned in "Fancy Man," a short story written by Phil Szostak and published in the 2023 anthology From a Certain Point of View: Return of the Jedi.[1]
