Talk:Leia Organa vs Padme Amidala/@comment-38292561-20191128031122

Padme is 5'3" and 118 lbs. Leia is 5'1" and 95 lbs. While smaller people can win for a multitude of reasons, Padme's body supports more muscle. If the senator were to get into a contest of physical strength, she would have the advantage. Her daughter, Leia, is more aggressive than her. Which gives Leia a combat advantage over Padme. However, Padme is no slouch herself. She has shown to be able to overpower droids off pure combative skills. And despite abhorring violence, Padme is excellent with a blaster. She survived the Battle of Geonosis, while many Padawans and Jedi Knights didn't. Leia is very capable with a blaster, but she has never shown the skill to keep up with Jedi Knights.

Where Padme has a major advantage, is sheer durability. Her durability and tolerance for pain are phenomenal for an ordinary human. She has shown to possess skin so strong that a Nexu was unable to draw one drop of blood. And she endured falling out of a LAAT/I gunship from at least a 30 ft drop. Even though she was temporarily incapacitated, she didn't have any bruises. In fact, her body is so powerful that she was able to land onto an animal from a 20 ft height without wincing.

Leia isn't fragile, but she hasn't displayed the same feats. I would have to say Padme would win. She has shown to be able to hold her own in the Battle of Geonosis with Jedi Knights and her durability is extremely high.
