Neela, a Rodian female, was the spouse of Greedo the Elder. She was also the mother to both the younger Greedo and Pqweeduk. Furthermore, she was the younger sibling of both Nok and Teeku.
After Navik the Red murdered her husband during the clan purges, Neela, accompanied by her two-year-old son, other family members, and the Tetsu clan, escaped Rodia. They sought refuge on U-Tendik, a jungle planet. It was there that she birthed her second son, Pqweeduk, and raised her children according to their clan's peaceful customs. She made an effort to shield Greedo and Pqweeduk from the brutality of their history. However, thirteen years later, Greedo stumbled upon a concealed colony ship, sparking his curiosity. Shortly thereafter, Navik and other hunters from the Chattza Clan discovered the refugees, resulting in a massacre. Neela, her sons, her brothers, and a small number of surviving clan members managed to escape, relocating to Nar Shaddaa. Neela's aspiration was to eventually secure protection for them under Avaro Sookcool's wing.
Neela secured employment as a housekeeper, residing in the Corellian sector on Level 88 alongside her family and the remaining members of their clan. The Rodian refugees remained there for a duration of four years. During this time, young Greedo evolved into a petty street urchin. While Greedo shadowed the bounty hunters Spurch "Warhog" Goa and Dyyz Nataz, an Imperial assault commenced, engulfing Level 88 in flames. Neela, along with the majority of the clan members, perished, leaving Greedo as an orphan.
