Kylantha Kylantha was a Human female from Naboo and the successor to Queen Apailana , formally styled Her Royal Highness , Queen Kylantha of Naboo . She was installed as a puppet ruler in 18 BBY after her predecessor was killed on the orders of the Galactic Empire for allegedly harboring Jedi survivors of Order 66 . Unlike previous monarchs , Kylantha had exceeded her two terms of office by the time of the Battle of Yavin . Biography . Puppet monarch . Kylantha succeeded Apailana to the throne of Naboo in 18 BBY , after the latter was executed by the Galactic Empire for treason . Although Queen Kylantha was outwardly loyal to the Empire , she refused to dissolve the Naboo Royal Advisory Council and , unlike other Imperial - held worlds , had only implemented a few changes to Naboo ' s democratic government . This led many Imperials , including Chief Inquisitor Loam Redge , to believe she was actually a Rebel Alliance sympathizer . Kylantha ' s personal view towards the Empire remained ambiguous . During her reign , Kylantha appointed Pooja Naberrie , the younger niece of the beloved Naboo politician Padmé Amidala , as Naboo ' s representative in the Imperial Senate , a position Naberrie held until Emperor Palpatine dissolved that governmental body in 0 BBY . The Emperor and the Queen . During the Galactic Civil War , Emperor Palpatine came to believe that Queen Kylantha was secretly hiding a Rebel general named Jacen Nire . Knowing that trying to force the Queen to give up Nire and / or arresting her for treason would result in Naboo openly turning against the Empire in spite of it being his homeworld , Palpatine resorted to alternate means to get rid of the Rebel general : Instead of having her arrested for treason , Palpatine assigned an unidentified Imperial spacer to help him manipulate the Queen without any blame falling on the Empire . First , the spacer had to create , with the help of a mercenary leader named Vurrha Jantsk , a datadisk that implicated the Rebel Alliance in an alleged plot against the Queen . Afterwards , they had to discreetly assist Jantsk ' s mercenaries in the attack on Kylantha ' s chambers by ridding the Queen of her security guards . They subsequently had to go talk to the Queen , who was not yet convinced of the Rebel Alliance ' s guilt . As " proof " of this , the spacer gave Kylantha the falsified datadisk , which eventually led her to give up General Nire ' s location , who was hiding outside the city of Dee ' ja Peak . The Imperial spacer then proceeded to assassinate the Rebel general . Kylantha claimed to be shocked that the Rebels " made " a personal attack on her , the Queen of Naboo , and requested the Imperial to tell the Emperor that he had her full support . Wookiee rescue . At some point during her reign , Kylantha sent the Wookiees Orrekazzapirr , Drrlirm , and Imarrra to their homeworld of Kashyyyk to investigate whether the Imperial force stationed on the planet was assisting the Trandoshan slavers . When she didn ' t receive any news from the Wookiees , Kylantha grew worried . However , a spacer arrived in Theed that Kylantha had heard many stories about from some of her staff . The adventurer agreed to fly to Kashyyyk and investigate the whereabouts of the Wookiees . The Queen had chosen the right being : not only did the adventurer find Drrlirm in the Kashyyykian jungles and escort him to Kachirho , but tracked the other two Wookiees to the Imperial prison on Dathomir where they had been brought and helped them escape from the planet and through the Imperial blockade . As a token of her appreciation for his help , Kylantha presented the adventurer with an old , rehauled ARC - 170 starfighter . Shortly after , the Queen invited the Ewok Chief Chirpa and his tribe to come to Naboo during their Festival of Love . Galactic commotion . Mikdanyell Guh ' rantt , the mayor of Mos Eisley on Tatooine , once contacted Kylantha and several regional governors across the galaxy about the increasing commotion that plagued his city . It turned out that this problem did not concern only Mos Eisley . Kylantha , Guh ' rantt , and the others eventually agreed to work together to put an end to that nuisance . Kylantha ' s Whim . At one point it was also said that a young and wealthy suitor , in an attempt to win her heart in marriage , purchased a quadrant of the Naboo system . However , Kylantha politely refused his offer , saying that she had " married " her people and wished to serve them with all of her time . Heartbroken , the suitor renamed the quadrant " Kylantha ' s Whim . " Kylantha was eventually replaced by Queen Mairayni . Behind the scenes . Kylantha was a in the " Star Wars Galaxies " prior to its closure on December 15 , 2011 . Rebel players could take a quest from her where they had to rescue Wookiee slaves . They received an ARC - 170 starfighter as a reward . The Queen ' s loyalties seem to be rather ambiguous . Outwardly , she was supportive of the Empire , but inwardly she appeared to be sympathetic to the Rebellion . Indeed , Emperor Palpatine saw to it that the Queen remained loyal to the Empire by making it appear as if the Rebellion were performing unethical acts . Like her predecessors Amidala and Jamillia , Queen Kylantha was served by handmaiden s . According to the now - defunct StarWars . com Databank , Teckla Minnau , a loyal servant of the deceased Amidala , survived the Clone Wars and returned to Naboo , where she eventually served as a handmaiden to Kylantha . However , her fate was changed in 2014 by " An Old Friend , " an episode of " " , which established that Minnau died around 20 BBY .
