Pell Nakay, a young Balawai, resided on Haruun Kal throughout the Clone Wars. She was the sibling of Keela. In an attempt to escape a conflict during the Summertime War, she, along with Keela, Terrel Nakay, Urno, and Nykl, experienced a mishap when their steamcrawler became immobilized in a lava stream; however, Mace Windu, a Jedi Master, successfully rescued them. Pell's mother, accompanied by a Balawai group, was in search of them; however, upon locating the children alongside Master Windu, Kar Vastor launched an assault with his Akk Guards and akk dogs. Pell managed to escape unharmed, but her mother was fatally wounded. She and the other children were also witnesses to the violent death of Terrel, perpetrated by Vastor. Pell, together with other Balawai captives, were transported by Windu to a steamcrawler route, where a Balawai gunship detected and liberated the prisoners. Gazing upon the children for a last moment, Mace simply wished that Pell and the rest would eventually be able to view a Jedi without animosity in their hearts.
