The Faa were a species of scalefish native to the planet Naboo. They lived alongside six other scalefish species in the waters around the city Otoh Gunga in Lake Paonga, and could also be found in the Naboo Abyss where they were preyed upon indiscriminately by the large colo claw fish and opee sea killers that dwelt there.[2] Unlike other scalefish species, which were mostly harmless, the faa was a vicious carnivore[3]
Behind the scenes[]
Faa first appeared in the film Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace.[4] They were first identified in the Star Wars Legends video game Star Wars: Episode I The Gungan Frontier.[5] They were confirmed to be canon in the reference book Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know.[2]
Faa, along with fellow scalefish doo, ray, mee, see, laa, tee, appear to be a reference to the real-world musical scale, i.e, "Do, Re, Me, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do."
