- ―Terra Derida[src]
Terra Derida was the sister of Guerra & Paxxi Derida and the daughter of Duenna. Terra was a member of the Syndicat on Phindar, and she worked for a man named Baftu. Terra had been memory-wiped as a child, making her a cruel, angry person. Duenna watched Terra and took care of her by living in the Syndicat headquarters.
The Syndicat was supposed to supply Prince Beju some bacta for the people of Gala, the bacta that Beju had taken away from the people of Gala. It would make him look like a hero, and the Syndicat would be repaid well, so Terra's instructions were to cooperate with Beju. However, when Obi-Wan Kenobi hijacked Beju's ship after suffering an unsuccessful memory-wipe, he acted like Beju when he was going to receive the bacta. Terra recognized Obi-Wan because she had been the one to memory-wipe him. When Terra said that Obi-Wan was a phony in front of Baftu, Baftu told his assassin droids to kill Terra. Duenna, who had been taking care of her twisted daughter, knew that somehow Terra had been redeemed before her death. Her last words told Guerra that her memories had returned.
