Shaneeka was an engineer of Chiss descent, identified as female. Her role as chief engineer for the clandestine settlement of Aurilia on Dathomir commenced sometime after 0 BBY. Due to the unfortunate pattern of her forerunners perishing early in their tenure because of assaults on the village, she constantly worked on the repair and upkeep of the town's shield generator.
Quharek, a Mon Calamari, assisted her in the maintenance of the majority of the electronics and mechanical systems within Aurilia.
In Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game created by Sony Online Entertainment and released by LucasArts in 2003, Shaneeka appeared as a non-player character. The video game ceased operations on December 15, 2011. She was positioned near the town's shield generator and was not tied to any missions within the game.
The character of Shaneeka, along with the rest of Aurilia, was integrated into the game with Chapter 7 in November of 2007.
