- "Something terrible happened. Jedi Vima trained her daughter, Neema, but failed her. Vima could not save little Neema from herself. From love. From the dark side…"
"…From the jaws of the rancors."
"Neema's beloved… fed her to them. But the tragedy was double. For little Neema was with child. Then, Jedi Vima gave into her anger. She murdered in hatred for her child, and her child's child. And Vima failed her Jedi vow… and failed herself." - ―Vima-Da-Boda and Obi-Wan Kenobi
Neema-Da-Boda was the daughter of Jedi Knight Vima-Da-Boda and the descendant of Andur and Nomi Sunrider.
Biography[]
Being Force-sensitive, Neema began to train as a Jedi under her mother. But like many students, Neema became frustrated with the slow, careful style her mother had taken to using with her. Over time, Neema was consumed by the dark side and she left her mother behind. She joined a group of other rebellious students, and eventually became the mistress of an Ottethan warlord.[1]
Years later, after Neema had been imprisoned in an oubliette by her husband, she reached out through the Force, begging for her mother to come and help her. Vima was too late to save her daughter, who was fed to rancors by her husband, and killed him in revenge.[1]
