Miraj Scintel / Legends Miraj Scintel was a female Zygerrian queen who was the ruler of the planet Zygerria during the time of the Clone Wars . In an attempt to reestablish Zygerria ' s prominence as a slave empire , Scintel made a bid to join the Confederacy of Independent Systems . She enslaved the Jedi Anakin Skywalker , Obi - Wan Kenobi , and Ahsoka Tano . Biography . A female Zygerrian , Miraj Scintel took the throne of Zygerria sometime before the start of the Clone Wars , a conflict between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems . As the Confederacy gained momentum , Queen Scintel saw an opportunity to reestablish Zygerria ' s ancient slave empire and concocted a plot to gain allegiance with Separatist leader Count Dooku . Dispatching Commander Darts D ' Nar to the Togruta colony world of Kiros , Scintel ordered him to capture the colonists and return them to Zygerria so they could be sold to Dooku at auction . Following the invasion of Kiros and the transfer of the slaves to a processing plant on Kadavo , a group of Jedi infiltrated Zygerria and Scintel ' s palace . Posing as a slaver named Lars Quell , Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker proposed to sell his Padawan Ahsoka Tano , who was also disguised as a Togruta slave , to Scintel . The Queen , intrigued by Skywalker ' s offer , accepted the slave and requested " Quell " to remain at her side for a time . During their walk about the palace , a young slave girl attempted to assassinate the Queen , only to be stopped by Skywalker . The Twi ' lek girl , fearful of remaining a slave and being punished , leaped from the ramparts to her death . While Jedi Master Obi - Wan Kenobi and clone trooper Rex infiltrated the nearby slave pits , Jedi Skywalker continued to warm up to Scintel in hopes of discovering the locations of the missing Kiros slaves . Accompanying Scintel to the auction house , Skywalker witnessed the brutality of Scintel ' s empire when Master Kenobi , whose cover was blown earlier in the slave pits , was ordered to be beaten on the bidding floor . Scintel ordered Skywalker to show his loyalty to her through beating the Jedi and was shocked when Skywalker revealed his identity as a Jedi . As his comrades leaped to defend him from the throng of guards , Padawan Tano attacked Scintel ; the Queen had already had the Jedi girl ' s neck fitted with a shock collar and simply activated it to render her inert . With Tano unconscious and the Jedi subdued , Scintel ordered Skywalker to be taken back to her chambers in the palace and the others separated and imprisoned as slaves . Scintel waited for Skywalker to wake in her chambers , offering him an appointment as her personal bodyguard . While the Jedi resisted at first , using the Force to telekinetically strangle her , Scintel persuaded him by threatening to have his friends executed should she die . During their time together , Scintel began to drift closer to Skywalker , deducing that he was once a slave before he became a Jedi . Despite her efforts to convince the Jedi to see the galaxy as she saw it , Skywalker rebuffed all her flirtatious advances even when she offered to free his friends if he swore fealty to her . Scintel ' s affections for Skywalker did not go unnoticed ; Prime Minister Atai Molec feared the Queen had been weakened by the Jedi and contacted Count Dooku to rectify the problem . Upon Dooku ' s arrival , Scintel confiscated Skywalker ' s lightsaber and dismissed him from her court . Scintel received Dooku in her throne room and detailed her plot to enslave the Jedi as she did Kenobi and Skywalker , crushing the Order and then the Republic . Dooku deemed her plan too ambitious , made it plain he was only interested in eradicating the Jedi Order , not enslaving it , and seeing through her thinly veiled emotions for Skywalker , demanded that he be disposed of . Infuriated by Dooku ' s brash statements and Minister Molec ' s betrayal , Scintel revealed an electro - whip clipped to her belt and attempted to attack the Count , but was quickly disarmed and throttled with the Force . As she struggled to breath against the Count ' s hold , Skywalker burst into the chamber and , unconcerned by the Count ' s threat to kill her unless he surrendered , attacked Dooku with the electro - whip , but was quickly disarmed . No match against Dooku without a weapon , Skywalker was surrounded by palace guards but managed to abscond from the chamber with the Queen before being felled . Fleeing the palace and boarding the ship he arrived in , the " Tecora " , Skywalker and his freed Padawan Tano prepared to take off in search of Kenobi and the Togruta colonists . The dying Queen revealed the location of the slaves before succumbing to her injuries . With her last breath , she acknowledged that she had become a slave just like Skywalker himself . Personality and traits . Miraj Scintel was a typical Zygerrian , she strongly believed it was the natural order for the strong to rule over the weak . She was extremely proud of her peoples ' ways and relished her status as Queen . Although she knew most others saw the Zygerrians traditions of slavery primitive , Scintel believed that slavery brought purpose to those with an innate desire to serve . Like most of her race , she was ruthless and had no qualms of using brutal and malicious methods to achieve her goals . She also treated her own personal slaves with cruelty and made a point of showing them their place , such was her treatment that one even committed suicide after a failed attempt to kill her . Due to her Zygerrian nature and royal status , Scintel was also extremely arrogant , believing that any person could be brought to submission with the proper methods and tools . Thus she also did not enjoy being given orders from anyone and was firm in making her own decisions . Ultimately , this trait proved to be her undoing , when she made Anakin Skywalker her slave and imprisoned his friends despite Count Dooku ordering her to kill them and warning her of the consequences , an order the queen angrily ignored , causing the Count to kill Scintel for her defiance . However , she was not an entirely cruel person , as she revealed the locations of Togruta slaves before she expired . Despite being Zygerrian , she was also able to realize the folly of slavery when betrayed by Dooku and Atai Molec and acknowledged this to Anakin .
