Stilt-Man

Nuvo Vindi was a male Faust doctor from Adana who lived during the waning years of the Galactic Republic. Vindi was mentally unstable, using his talents as a scientist and researcher to achieve his vision of a perfect galaxy. Originally employed as the senior medic for the criminal Perma families, Vindi went missing in 32 BBY and was believed dead. Reappearing on Naboo as a Confederacy of Independent Systems scientist during the Clone Wars, he became obsessed with recreating the eradicated Blue Shadow Virus, a deadly water-borne plague which resulted in instantaneous death and had no known cure. Vindi worked out of a subterranean laboratory in Naboo's eastern swamps alongside Confederate battle droids and LEP-86C8, a LEP servant droid. In 21 BBY, Vindi was not only able to re-engineer the virus, but also create an airborne strain he planned to release in key Republic star systems.After several of his battle droids were discovered by the Royal Naboo Security Forces, Vindi's plot was revealed to Naboo's Senator Padmé Amidala and Representative Jar Jar Binks, who then contacted the Jedi Order for assistance. Vindi captured Amidala and Binks before the arrival of the Jedi and held them hostage in his laboratory until it was attacked shortly after by Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, Knight Anakin Skywalker, Padawan Ahsoka Tano, and Republic clone troopers. After torturing Amidala and Binks for a short time, Vindi attempted to escape Naboo and reintroduce the virus to the galaxy. He was instead apprehended by Skywalker and Kenobi outside his laboratory and was transported to Naboo's capital of Theed. Although the virus was released during the battle, a cure was quickly found by Kenobi and Skywalker on the planet Iego, negating the threat. Vindi was then taken to the galactic capital of Coruscant for trial.
