Artist commune

An anti-violence artist commune was founded by the woman Celena on the Outer Rim planet Nooroyo. During the Republic Era, five Torada Collective Naboo artists settled in the commune, including Antraya—the sister of the planet Naboo's Queen Jamillia—and the man Kharl.

After the onset of the Clone Wars between the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems in 22 BBY, Jamillia sent Naboo's senator, Padmé Amidala, to retrieve the artists and bring them back to Naboo. In the commune, Amidala and her secret paramour, Jedi Padawan Anakin Skywalker, met with Celena, who brought them to speak with Kharl. Though the other artists ultimately refused to leave, Antraya reluctantly departed the commune to reunite with Jamillia on Naboo.
