During the Galactic Civil War period, Queen Kylantha of Naboo employed a Human female handmaiden named Jaanie. Sometime after the Battle of Yavin in 0 BBY, High Inquisitor Mal Sikander of the Galactic Empire sought Jaanie, leading to her pursuit by agents from the Imperial Security Bureau. To aid the Queen and her handmaiden, Boss Rugor Nass of the Gungans enlisted a spacer to rescue Jaanie and ensure her safe return to the Gungan Sacred Place.
Jaanie, a Human female handmaiden, was in the service of Queen Kylantha of the Royal House of Naboo amidst the Galactic Civil War. Following the Battle of Yavin in 0 BBY, High Inquisitor Mal Sikander from the Galactic Empire's Inquisitorius and agents of the Imperial Security Bureau went after Jaanie, intending to punish her. Boss Rugor Nass, the Ankura Gungan, worried about Jaanie and wanted her to be safe.
As a gesture of goodwill towards the Naboo people and their Queen, Boss Rugor Nass tasked a spacer with locating the missing handmaiden and safely escorting her back to the Gungan Sacred Place, a revered site within Naboo's Lasay Swamp. During the search for Jaanie, the spacer faced an attack from a stormtrooper squad leader and three stormtroopers. However, the spacer prevailed, killing all four. Upon reaching Jaanie, she expressed her gratitude and cautioned that ISB agents were still pursuing her. Despite this, the endangered handmaiden remained unharmed. Thanks to the spacer's assistance, Jaanie was safely escorted back to Boss Nass within the protected confines of the Sacred Place.
While evading the Empire, Jaanie was seen wearing a light gray short-sleeved shirt paired with a blue wrapped skirt and a light gray waistband. Her footwear consisted of gray dress shoes, and she wore silver bangles on her left forearm. Her arsenal included various blaster pistols and a slugthrower, such as a DH-17 blaster pistol, a DL-44 heavy blaster pistol, a Striker projectile pistol, and an SE-14 blaster pistol. She also carried two versions of the DH-17 carbine, including a snubnosed variant known as the DH-17 short carbine.
Jaanie appeared as a non-player character in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game created by Sony Online Entertainment and released by LucasArts, before it shut down on December 15, 2011. She was featured in the second quest given by Boss Nass, an NPC found at the Gungan Sacred Place on the planet Naboo. In this quest, players were tasked by Boss Nass with finding Jaanie and safely escorting her back. Successfully completing the quest rewarded the player with 50 credits. While players had the option to decline Boss Nass' quests, this article operates under the assumption of complete game completion. Jaanie's graphical appearance was identical to other NPCs like Deehan because she spawned under the generic "mission_plainsfolk" template. At some point early in the game's lifespan, Boss Nass' quests were disabled, effectively removing Jaanie from Star Wars Galaxies. With the release of Publish 25's New Game Enhancements on November 15, 2005, Boss Nass' content was reworked to become part of the larger Legacy Quest series.
