The two were separated , and with the help of Pantoran Senator Riyo Chuchi and Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano , Chi Eekway Papanoida was rescued from Separatist clutches . Papanoida did contact her father at the Galaxies Opera House during the performance of Squid Lake to receive important information for the Loyalists . She was accompanied by her friend and advisor Terr Taneel , who was actually keeping a close eye on her ; Taneel secretly harbored fears Papanoida had ambitions to politically outshine her . Chi was a member of the group of senators , including Bail Prestor Organa and Padmé Amidala , who had grown worried of the immense power Palpatine had been given by the Galactic Senate .

Personality and traits . As a young and impetuous Pantoran , Senator Chi Eekway Papanoida ' s sphere of control included areas of space dominated by unallied trader guilds that often stretched the limits of Republic law . She learned valuable lessons trying to govern citizens who cherished their frontier spirit . It spoke well of her skills to have earned the respect of a people well known for their disdain for government . Her devotion to Wroonian spirituality — visible in details found in the ornate molf - tasseled overcloak she wore — helped her earn support and respect . Papanoida ' s near - supernatural levels of empathy helped her quell even the most contentious of political disputes . Perhaps her tenure during a time when an overriding Republic was drawing power away from the individual sectors colored the views of her fiercely independent constituents . For her exposure to a rough - and - tumble culture of law - benders , Papanoida learned the art of the bluff and a diplomatic style more confrontational than the usual measured approaches found in the Senate . In heated exchanges , she has even been known to drop veiled hints at the power her allies could bring to a dispute . Behind the scenes . Chi Eekway Papanoida was portrayed by one of George Lucas ' s daughters , Katie Lucas . She was voiced in the " Clone Wars " by Nika Futterman . The design notes that accompanied the original concepts of Chi Eekway ' s costumes described her as a " Mystic Senator . " Iain McCaig illustrated these initial concepts , using his talent for capturing likenesses to place the Senator ' s eventual performer into the artwork .

An exclusive action figure produced in 2006 also depicts and labels her as a Twi ' lek , though this is no longer canon .
