Karina

"My empire is forever! My empire cannot end!"

- Queen Karina

A Karina the Great served as the Geonosian queen of Geonosis in the years after Geonosis was sterilized by the Galactic Empire; thereby holding the title of Karina the Great. Karina was saved before birth by the Geonosian drone Klik-Klak, who hid Karina's egg so she could hatch naturally and continue the species as the last known surving Karina. Karina had taken shelter in a subterranean lair and attached herself to a droid factory once used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems, using the device as a mechanical womb after she lost hers. Driven to such depths to continue her race using Separatist B1 battle droids as her "Geonosian children," she was even more set back when she was visited by the Sith Lord Darth Vader and Aphra, an archaeologist, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Vader and Aphra stole her factory-womb for themselves, but left Karina alive.
