Nelly was an Eirami female who was part of the crew of the fishing boat Queen Xiri and the wife of its captain, Okoro. She traversed and fished the oceans of the planet Eiram alongside her husband, crewmember Gorge, droid 9-0-9, and eventually Jedi Padawan Bell Zettifar, who they hired for the crew after he helped free a spinefin from one of their nets. She was initially doubtful of the Jedi's aptitude and usefulness for the job, but quickly befriended and got to know him, bonding over how different their lives were but also how similarly they each devoted them to hard work. She and the rest of the crew helped him search for and locate his lost friend, fellow Padawan Burryaga Agaburry, who had disappeared during the Destruction of Starlight Beacon.[1]
