Sheeka Tull

Sheeka Tull was a black-skinned Human woman. She was possibly native to Atrivis 7; at any rate, her parents were killed in a range war on the world.

In 41 BBY, Tull was romantically involved with Jango Fett, whom she met in the Meridian Sector, where he was looking for his lost armor. The couple spent a year together, at the end of which their ship was attacked by pirates. The two entered separate escape pods and never saw each other again.

She later came to Ord Cestus, where she fell in love with and married a miner named Yander. They were together for four years before he died, after which she cared for his three children (Tarl, Tonoté, and Mithail).

Sometime later, her younger sister joined a religious group on Devon Four. After the sect refused to pay taxes, the Galactic Republic placed an embargo on the world. When a plague developed, the Republic refused to ship medicine in, and so Tull smuggled it in. Although she saved the colony (and her sister) she was arrested, convicted, and sentenced to ten years of labor by the Republic.

When Ord Cestus became embroiled in the Clone Wars, Tull, as a native of the planet, aided the Republic forces under the command of Kit Fisto and Obi-Wan Kenobi. In return, the Republic agreed that it would expunge her criminal record. During this time she developed a love interest with an ARC trooper named Nate and became the mother of his child.

Behind the scenes
There is a descrepancy in the time which she spent with Jango; in two locations it is specifically said they met in 41 BBY; however, she also says that they met two years after the destruction of the Mandalorians, which took place in 34 BBY.
