M ' iiyoom Onith / Legends M ' iiyoom Onith , also known as Nightlily , was a female H ' nemthe from the planet H ' nemthe . She spent her life on her homeworld until she was selected to travel the galaxy and find a mate from outside of her culture . During her journeys , she ran out of credits and became stranded in the spaceport city of Mos Eisley on Tatooine , where she was courted by the Gotal tax collector Feltipern Trevagg . Trevagg found Onith physically intoxicating and intended to desert her after a single night of passion , but won her affection by telling her that he would marry her . Onith in turn fell madly in love with Trevagg . After Trevagg showed her some of the sights of Mos Eisley , he brought her to a cantina and ordered her several alcoholic drinks . He slipped a Love - Wallop pill into one of them , hoping to more easily seduce her , and the two then went to the Mos Eisley Inn and consummated their love . As per H ' nemthe custom , Onith used her razor - sharp tongue to murder Trevagg immediately after making love , and soon after returned to her homeworld . Notorious for being the first female of her species to attempt mating with a non - H ' nemthe , she began speaking publicly about her experience . Biography . The female H ' nemthe M ' iiyoom Onith was born to an unwealthy family on the planet H ' nemthe , the homeworld of her species . She was named for the m ' iiyoom , a white flower that blossomed on the planet and that translated from the H ' nemthe to Basic as " Nightlily . " Onith lived with her mother and sisters and did not bed a male during her youth or young adulthood . As virgins were forbidden to leave H ' nemthe , she remained on the planet until she was selected to take part in an experiment to see how well female H ' nemthe would fare at finding mates from outside of their native culture . Onith left to visit her sister on Cona , and was accompanied by a chaperone during her travels until she boarded the wrong ship during a layover at a transfer station . The scientist Mammon Hoole later believed that she may have done this intentionally in order to lose her chaperone . Before reaching Cona , Onith ended up in the spaceport city of Mos Eisley on Tatooine , where officials claimed that her travel papers were not in order . Forced to pay a passage tax , she was unable to afford transportation back to her homeworld . Onith lingered in Mos Eisley for several weeks , becoming a regular at a local cantina . Eventually , she made her way to a tax collector ' s office in the city and was directed to the male Gotal Feltipern Trevagg . When she entered Trevagg ' s office , the Gotal glimpsed her and immediately fell in love , desiring to have sex with her as soon as possible . In order to keep her on Tatooine for the night , he told Onith that he would speak to the captain of the passenger liner the " Tellivar Lady " , but in reality dawdled on his way to Docking Bay 9 , allowing the ship to lift off . Trevagg then took Onith to lunch at Court of the Fountain , an expensive restaurant owned by the crime lord Jabba the Hutt . While walking there from the tax office , he offered many compliments on her appearance , flattering her and winning some affection in return . Jabba the Hutt ' s chef Porcellus produced four courses of fruits and vegetables for Onith , as H ' nemthe virgins were not permitted to eat meat . Over the meal and a bottle of wine , Trevagg expressed his love for her , and Onith interpreted the declaration as a proposal of marriage . The Gotal played along , kissing Onith , and promising her a union of body and soul . Hoping to rid himself of Onith after a single night of pleasure , Trevagg brought her back to his office and booked her passage from Tatooine on the passenger liner the " Starswan " , telling her that he would be joining her within the coming days . He then brought her to the cantina she had visited several weeks before , hoping to further inebriate her and secure his night of intercourse . Onith was excited at the prospect of marriage and happily followed Trevagg to the bar , where he identified various species to her astonished eyes . The two sat at a booth with the Givin Elis Helrot , but paid him little mind . Over several drinks , they began to discuss the idea of consummating their marriage before it actually happened . The Jedi Master Obi - Wan Kenobi and the young moisture farmer Luke Skywalker then entered the cantina , and Onith became frightened when the two skirmished with the Aqualish Ponda Baba and his companion Doctor Cornelius Evazan . Trevagg used the opportunity to fetch her another drink , and , eager to get her into bed , slipped a Love - Wallop pill into it . When the Corellian smuggler Han Solo killed the Rodian bounty hunter Greedo , Onith again grew frightened and asked if they could leave . Trevagg brought her to the Mos Eisley Inn . Onith had fallen madly in love with him , and they began to physically demonstrate their passion for one another . After sex occurred , Onith used her razor - sharp tongue to gut Trevagg , as was customary for H ' nemthe females to do . She left his corpse at the inn and returned to her homeworld , where she gained notoriety for being the first female of her species to attempt mating with a non - H ' nemthe . No longer a virgin , she became free to travel offworld , but preferred to remain on the planet and speak publicly about her experience . Personality and traits . M ' iiyoom Onith came from a culture that placed a premium on true love . While being courted by Feltipern Trevagg , she was swayed by his charms and fell madly in love with him . She was also excited at the prospect of marrying him after having only known him for several hours . After consuming some alcohol , she desired to mate with him , which in H ' nemthe culture only occurred in cases of true love . After having lived her entire life on her homeworld , Onith was enchanted by many of the sights that she saw in Mos Eisley , including the Court of the Fountain restaurant , the cantina that she and Trevagg visited , and the many species present in the city . She was shy and modest , denying Trevagg ' s claims that she was beautiful and only mentioning her virginity bashfully . Trevagg surmised from her conversation skills and her inability to see through his lies that she was very unintelligent , but found her physically desirable nonetheless . Additionally , Onith was quick to frighten , and was uneasy entering the cantina , wary of the dark thoughts and emotions within . She relaxed when Trevagg promised her safety , however , as she felt completely comfortable in the presence of the Gotal . Behind the scenes . M ' iiyoom Onith first appeared as a background alien in the cantina scene of George Lucas ' s 1977 film " " , played by an uncredited actor and seen snuggling up to the Gotal character Feltipern Trevagg . Onith was one of the scene ' s booth - dwelling aliens whose masks were designed by makeup artist Rick Baker , created for supplemental shooting done during post - production when Lucas decided to liven the scene with more action and additional characters . Given the on - set nickname of Yam Nose , Onith was intended to receive the proper name of Yamnoss , but the idea never saw the light of day . However , a H ' nemthe character in 1978 ' s " The Star Wars Holiday Special " that re - used Onith ' s mask was eventually dubbed Yamnoss . Onith ' s mask was also re - used for a H ' nemthe character that appeared in the 1983 film . Onith ' s name was established in 1995 with the release of the Star Wars Customizable Card Game ' s Premiere Limited set . Her character was fleshed out by author Barbara Hambly in the short story " " , which was included in the 1995 anthology " Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina " . Ashley Albert voiced the character in the of " Nightlily " . Although Onith appears in the of " Star Wars " , she is standing with a group of assorted aliens rather than sitting with Trevagg and Elis Helrot . The cover of " The Mos Eisley Cantina Pop - Up Book " depicts the Talz Muftak as sitting at the booth with Onith and Trevagg , and its interior shows a table populated by Onith , a Rodian , and an Aqualish . Onith is one of several cantina aliens who appears in a 1979 " Star Wars " drunk - driving PSA set in the Mos Eisley Cantina .
