- "You're trying to spare my feelings? Trust me, right now my ego is the least of our problems."
- ―Thandeka, to Monarch Cassel
Thandeka was a human female who was the queen consort of Eiram during the High Republic Era, and was married to the queen regnant, Dima. When the Directorate intended to kidnap the leaders of Eiram and its twin planet E'ronoh to destabilize the local governments, its members mistakenly kidnapped Thandeka rather than the true queen, holding her alongside Monarch Cassel of E'ronoh on the lost moon. Twenty-five years later, Thandeka spoke at the dedication of the Starlight Beacon space station.[2]
As her wife Queen Dima had aged and grown more frail she took on more responsibility, especially when it came to dealing with dignitaries from other nations, especially the Republic.[3]
It was Thandeka who argued strongly to trust the Jedi to find a solution during the Fall of Starlight Beacon which ultimately prevented that the lower half of Starlight Beacon was shot down by Eiram's Defence Forces.[3]
