Zadawi Zadawi was an Arkanian Offshoot female who lived on the outskirts of the city of Adascopolis , ancient capital of the planet Arkania , during the time of the Mandalorian Wars . Owing to Arkania ' s segregationist policies that separated Offshoots from pureblood Arkanians , Zadawi was forced to live with her father and grandmother in a small hut on the site of a derelict mining camp just outside Adascopolis , which they were forbidden to enter . Rebellious and infuriated by the discrimination against her people , Zadawi often sneaked into Adascopolis with her friends in disguise . In 3963 BBY , Zadawi met an Offshoot named Jarael , an offworlder who was unfamiliar with the plight of the Offshoots and was attempting to procure a medical diagnosis for an ailing friend . When Jarael was barred entry to Adascopolis , Zadawi took it upon herself to educate Jarael about what life was like for Offshoots on Arkania and took Jarael back to her home . Zadawi eventually helped Jarael disguise herself as a pureblood Arkanian and sneak into Adascopolis . Biography . An Arkanian Offshoot female , Zadawi lived on the planet Arkania during the era of the Mandalorian Wars . Zadawi ' s people , the Offshoots , were a sub - species bioengineered by pureblood Arkanians to be more efficient miners and faced significant discrimination on Arkania . By 3963 BBY , Zadawi lived in a hut on the site of a deserted mining camp on the outskirts of the city of Adascopolis , ancient capital of Arkania , with her father and grandmother . Zadawi , like other Offshoots , was not allowed to enter the city , but over the years , she and her friends made a habit of dressing up in disguise and sneaking into Adascopolis . The mistreatment of the Offshoots at the hands of the pureblood Arkanians , along with what she saw as a defeated attitude amongst the rest of her people , sometimes drove Zadawi to want to run away . One day in 3963 BBY , she decided to go to the Adascopolis spaceport to perhaps look for a way offplanet . There , she collided with another Offshoot , Jarael , who had come from offworld and was unfamiliar with her surroundings . Jarael ' s goggles were knocked off in the collision , leading spaceport security to notice that she was an Offshoot and force her onto the shuttlebus leading back to Zadawi ' s settlement outside the city . Zadawi became acquainted with Jarael on the shuttlebus — the offworlder had come to Arkania to obtain a medical diagnosis for her friend , an elderly Offshoot called Camper . Shocked by Jarael ' s lack of knowledge about the plight of her people , Zadawi brought her back to her home for dinner . Wanting to show Jarael what life was really like for Offshoots on Arkania , Zadawi began arguing with her grandmother when the other woman defended the House of Adasca , the rich and powerful pureblood Arkanian family that ran the biomechanical corporation known as Adascorp , and Arkania ' s segregationist policies . Frustrated , Zadawi decided to help Jarael sneak into Adascopolis in order to " put one over on the purebloods . " Zadawi aided Jarael in acquiring a passable pureblood Arkanian disguise , which succeeded in getting her safe passage into Adascopolis . Personality and traits . A rebellious girl , Zadawi was disgusted by the treatment of her people on Arkania and deeply desired to help solve the problems facing the Offshoots . She and her friends were also always willing to break the rules and cause trouble for the purebloods , including dressing up in disguise to sneak into Adascopolis . Zadawi was dismayed by the forgiving attitude toward Adascorp and the purebloods that she saw amongst many of the Offshoots , including her grandmother . Believing that they had become party to their own degradation , Zadawi often wanted to leave them all behind but realized that escaping would not do anything to help . Zadawi held Adascorp in little esteem , believing that they would rather help strangers for money instead of aiding Offshoots suffering in their own backyard . Zadawi felt that it was her responsibility to show Jarael , an offworlder unfamiliar with the situation on Arkania , what life was really like for Offshoots on their homeworld . Zadawi was initially shocked by the extent of Jarael ' s ignorance but befriended her anyway and eventually helped her sneak into Adascopolis . Zadawi had white hair , white skin , and blue eyes and wore four earrings on each ear . Behind the scenes . Zadawi first appeared in " " , a comic written by John Jackson Miller and released in 2007 . In her appearance , Zadawi was illustrated by Brian Ching , whom Miller tasked with designing a character who would " hold up a mirror " to main character Jarael and reflect what life would have been like for her had she grown up on Arkania . Zadawi also received a brief mention in a later issue of " " , " " .
