[edit] Biography
- "I need you to convince the Senate or the Jedi Council, or whoever is in charge of the terrible war that we are threatened."
- ―Queen Neeyutnee to Padmé Amidala[src]
Neeyutnee was the successor to Jamillia and was at some point Princess of Theed. Neeyutnee took over from Jamillia before the latter even finished her first term as Queen.
During her time as Queen, Neeyutnee was faced with a few troubles. Early in her reign, Naboo was under threat from the deadly Blue Shadow Virus after the deluded Dr. Nuvo Vindi had recreated the virus and made it possible for it to spread not only in water but also in air.
She sent out a request for Senator Padmé Amidala to return to Naboo and help with the incident as Padmé was close to the Jedi and held a place in the Galactic Senate.
Along with the problems that the Blue Shadow Virus would cause for the Queen, it was possible that Naboo was yet again under threat of invasion, as Sio Bibble cautioned. After being detected, Trade Federation battle droids were captured. However, Naboo Security's methods in securing the droids meant little remained of them to be analysed. The results of this analysis were thus inconclusive, but representative Jar Jar Binks was able to help locate the droids' base by identifying a small insectoid stuck to one of them.
In 20 BBY, Neeyutnee was succeeded as Queen by the then Princess of Theed, Apailana, as the war neared its final stages.
[edit] Behind the scenes
In the episode Blue Shadow Virus, Neeyutnee is never referred to by name and may have initially been Apailana or Jamillia. The The Clone Wars web-comic later named her Neeyutnee.
Queen Neeyutnee was voiced by Jameelah McMillan in Blue Shadow Virus."[1]
Unlike other Queens of Naboo, Neeyutnee does not have circles painted on her cheeks and instead wears a pattern of triangles.
