Leeni was a female wokling who lived around the time of the Battle of Endor.[1] She was named for a spirit in Ewok mythology.[2] She was among a group of young Ewoks that Wicket and Kneesaa took swimming as the elder Ewoks hid sunberry trees from the Mantigrue[3], and later was one of the woklings to whom Chief Chirpa told the story of Logray, Morag and the Sunstar.[4]
Behind the scenes[]

The Leeni plush toy
Leeni first appeared as one of six 8-inch plush woklings made by Kenner as part of their Return of the Jedi toy line.[5] Her first appearance in fiction was as a background character with no spoken lines in the Ewoks television series.[3]
Her name appears only on a Nelvana animation model sheet[6], which matches a character in the group of young Ewoks in the episode "The Haunted Village"[3] and again in "Sunstar vs. Shadowstone."[4] The Star Wars Encyclopedia also refers to her as a character from the cartoon series.[1]
