Tey How

Canon Legends version → Linked from 14 articles

Tey How was a Neimoidian who served as a battleship pilot for the Trade Federation during its blockade and subsequent invasion of the planet Naboo. During the initial blockade, How piloted the Federation flagship, the Saak'ak, and gave their superiors, Daultay Dofine and Nute Gunray, various reports and warnings concerning a pair of Jedi ambassadors from the Galactic Republic whom the Federation tried to kill aboard the vessel.

After the Jedi escaped and the full invasion of Naboo began, How transferred to piloting the Droid Control Ship Vuutun Palaa. They activated the battle droid army deployed to fight the Gungan Grand Army during the Battle of Naboo but was killed when the child pilot Anakin Skywalker managed to fly an N-1 starfighter into the interior of the Vuutun Palaa and destroy its main reactor.
