Candabrine Bu was a senator who represented the planet Lansono in the Galactic Senate during the Separatist Crisis. A militarist, Bu supported the Military Creation Act, which aimed to create an army to assist the beleaguered Republic. When Supreme Chancellor Palpatine postponed the Senate vote on the Act following an assassination attempt on Senator Padmé Amidala of Naboo, Bu publicly criticized the Chancellor for using the situation to thwart the passage of the Act.
