Rabé is the only handmaiden besides Sabé who has a speaking role. She says "Anakin Skywalker to see Padmé, Your Highness". Her lifelong dream was to become a dancer, but their parents wanted her to become queen, and she failed the exams. When she was forced to do them again, she barely passed them, and she became a handmaiden. She knows martial arts, and has a laser pistol under her cloak, because she is a sort of bodyguard. This is the only official reference to Rabé I could find: "The diversity of actors who have appeared in Star Wars such as Pernilla August (Anakin's mother), Hugh Quarshie (Captain Panaka), Dhruv Chanchani (Kitster), and Kristina DaSilva (Rabé) were chosen for the talent they brought to their roles--not because they were Swedish, Ghanaian, Indian, or Brazilian. The Star Wars movies have always been populated with a rich cast of characters that make up this fantasy world."
