Biography[]
Lunae Minx was a Twi'lek female native to[1] the planet[2] Ryloth. Minx was a sultry temptress who used her charms to reel in would-be lovers.[3] During the last decades of the Galactic Republic, she was a regular at the Outlander Club,[1] a nightclub and gambling hall[4] in the Uscru Entertainment District of the planet Coruscant.[5] Minx was an acquaintance of[1] the Twi'lek dancer and assassin[6] Ayy Vida[1] and the con-artist[7] Achk Med-Beq.[1] Minx often visited the Outlander Club to say hello to Vida.[3]

Minx looked back at Anakin Skywalker as he walked away.
During a night[8] in 22 BBY,[9] Minx drank and stood at a table in the Outlander Club with Vida and Med-Beq and had an[8] impromptu[10] chat.[8] As they did, the Jedi Padawan Anakin Skywalker walked by their table, as he and his master, Obi-Wan Kenobi, were in the club, searching for the bounty hunter Zam Wesell.[8]
Minx caught his eye and the padawan was briefly distracted by her dazzling looks. After focusing back on the task at hand,[3] he walked away from the table with Minx looking back at him.[8] Skywalker walked by the table again, and shortly thereafter, Wesell was disarmed with Kenobi's lightsaber, causing Minx, Vida, and Med-Beq to glance at the situation. The Padawan told the clubgoers to go back to their drinks and the group left the club.[8]
Personality and traits[]
Minx was acquainted with Ayy Vida and Achk Med-Beq.[1] The Twi'lek used her considerable charms to attract would-be lovers. When she caught Anakin Skywalker's eye, he was briefly distracted by her dazzling looks.[3] The Twi'lek possessed brown eyes and was distinguished by her mottled purple skin, considered rare for her species.[1]
Equipment[]
Minx wore a black dress and a silver headress.[8]
Behind the scenes[]
- "I was purple in [Episode II] and it took about six hours to do! My call time was at 3 a.m., and my makeup took until 7 a.m., and we wouldn't start shooting until two hours after that. The makeup went all down my arm and they airbrushed spots down the tentacles. I was exhausted by the end of the day."
