Tilotny Tilotny was one of the non - corporeal spirits that inhabited a region near the Bedlam Pulsar and the first of her kind to take on a shape as they experimented with time and space . During the Galactic Civil War , Tilotny and three other spirits met Princess Leia Organa , who was forced to land on the planet Bedlam while running from three Imperial stormtroopers . Believing that she had invented form , Tilotny claimed she had created the beings , and decided to play with them , inadvertently killing them in the process . After tiring of her playthings , she left , leaving her fellow spirit Splendid Ap to clean up the mess . Splendid Ap revived Organa and the stormtroopers but accidentally transported the latter 8 , 000 years into the past . Biography . The omnipotent , transdimensional being known as Tilotny was one of the Bedlam Spirits who existed in the stark whiteness that digested hyperspace near the Bedlam Pulsar . Generally abstract beings , Tilotny and her cohorts began experimenting with time , matter , and space and , at some point during the Galactic Civil War , Tilotny took on a shape for the first time , materializing on the planet Bedlam in a form resembling a Human female . Although Tilotny was the first of her kind to take on a form , it was not long before other Bedlam Spirits replicated her achievement and Tilotny was soon joined on the planet by Horliss - Horliss , Cold Danda Sine and Splendid Ap . Believing herself to have invented form , Tilotny gladly took credit for creating the world around them when asked by Cold Danda Sine , though Horliss - Horliss wondered if it had already taken shape before their arrival . As the group discussed their new forms and surroundings , they met Princess Leia Organa , a member of the Alliance to Restore the Republic who had been forced to land on the planet and was being pursued by three Imperial stormtroopers . Tilotny claimed to have created Organa too , but when the stormtroopers arrived moments later , she was mocked by Cold Danda Sine for repeating a shape . Hoping to correct her apparent mistake , Tilotny used her powers to alter the form of one of the stormtroopers , crystallizing the trooper and inadvertently killing him . Horliss - Horliss was unimpressed by Tilotny ' s lack of subtlety and tried his own modification , killing Organa in a less obvious way by turning her heart into diamond while leaving the rest of her the same . Tilotny attempted once more to modify the beings , merging the two remaining stormtroopers into a single mass of writhing limbs that did not live long . Cold Danda Sine soon tired of the activity , however , and suggested that it was time to leave . Tilotny agreed , but Horliss - Horliss felt that , since Tilotny was the first to take shape , she should clean up the mess they had made of Organa and the stormtroopers . Tilotny refused , however , and instead instructed Splendid Ap to do so while she departed with the others . Splendid Ap restored the beings to life and their original forms , but unwittingly sent the stormtroopers 8 , 000 years into the past . Personality and traits . Although she was an omnipotent being , Tilotny was naive on matters of time and space . She had an innocent , light - hearted manner and saw her life - threatening experiments with the beings she encountered as little more than a game . The first of her kind to take on a physical form , Tilotny believed herself to have invented form , mass , and time and credited herself with creating the world around her and the sentient beings she encountered , refusing to believe that any forms could have existed before her . She was extremely proud of her achievement and felt that the newness of form was spoiled when her fellow spirits learned how to take shapes of their own , accusing them of copying her and looking down on the indistinct shape taken by Horliss - Horliss . When the others accused her of creating duplicate shapes upon seeing the stormtroopers , Tilotny blamed her apparent error on being distracted by her companions and , ashamed , attempted to correct her mistake , accidentally causing the deaths of the troopers . Tilotny , like the other Bedlam Spirits , soon lost interest in her playthings and decided to leave , refusing even to restore them to their previous state first . In her corporeal form , Tilotny resembled a Human female . Much larger than a real Human , she had green features , pale green eyes and long , waving green hair and floated above the surface of the planet . Powers and abilities . Tilotny was an omnipotent being whose powers allowed her to casually manipulate time and mass . An abstract entity by nature , she had the power to take on a physical form of her own and was the first of her kind to discover how to do so . When in corporeal form , she was capable of levitating above the ground . Tilotny was also capable of altering the forms of those she encountered . She did not fully understand the extent of her powers or the consequences of her abilities , however . Assuming that she had created the stormtroopers she encountered , she attempted to modify them , but caused their deaths in the process . Behind the scenes . Tilotny was created by Alan Moore for the 1981 comic story " Tilotny Throws a Shape " , which was published in the Marvel Comics UK comic book " The Empire Strikes Back Monthly 154 " . " Tilotny Throws a Shape " was illustrated by John Stokes and was originally published in black and white . It was later colored when reprinted by Dark Horse Comics in 1996 ' s " " , giving Tilotny her green appearance . The character received an entry in 2008 ' s " The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia " and is also mentioned in 2009 ' s " The Essential Atlas " , which established her as a Bedlam Spirit . Author Joe Bongiorno planned to detail Tilotny and the other Bedlam Spirits in a " Star Wars Gamer " article entitled " " Supernatural Encounters in the Star Wars Universe " " but the article was never completed after the magazine was canceled . A similar novella entitled " " , written by Bongiorno for " " , was going to introduce Tilotny and Cold Danda Sine ' s firstborn son Typhojem , a tentacled creature intended to be a reference to . Tilotny would seek to kill the creature after laying eyes on it , but a laughing Cold Danda Sine would stay her hand and name the creature " Typhojem , " the " Father of Shadows . " As Tilotny was jealous of all things that were of great beauty and despised all things that were not , Typhojem would reciprocate his mother ' s hatred , referring to her as " the great whore " and only having affection for his father . However , like the " Gamer " article , the novella was never published . " The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia " states that Tilotny existed near the Din Pulsar , but this was changed to the Bedlam Pulsar in " The Essential Atlas " . Whereas the original comic shows Splendid Ap resurrecting Organa and the stormtroopers after Tilotny refuses , " The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia " incorrectly states that Tilotny restored the beings . The error was acknowledged by author Pablo Hidalgo during a ForceCast interview in late 2008 .
