Biography[]
Shu Mai was born on Castell sometime in the years of the Galactic Republic's reign of the galaxy. She quickly rose to power within the Commerce Guild and eventually became the Presidente.
During the Separatist Crisis, former Jedi Count Dooku of Serreno began forming the Separatist Alliance in the shadows. Mai made the decision to join the cause and fight against the Galactic Republic and the Guild joined the Separatist. Mai served on the Separatist Council with her aide Cat Miin. She was present on Geonosis when Obi-Wan Kenobi was captured and then later when the Battle of Geonosis began. She escaped along with the rest of the council before the arrival of the Clone Troopers and Jedi Grand Master Yoda. Following their defeat on Geonosis, the Separatist engaged the Republic on many worlds across the galaxy, beginning the Clone Wars. Shu Mai served as a Separatist leader during the war.
In 19 BBY, Mai was present on Utapau when Obi-Wan Kenobi arrived to confront General Grievous after the death of Count Dooku on The Invisible Hand. The entire Separatist Council relocated to Mustafar with Nute Gunray in charge as Grievous was defeated and killed by Kenobi on Utapau.
Anakin Skywalker, now known as Darth Vader, went to Mustafar under orders from Darth Sidious. Shu Mai and the others thought Sidious' new apprentice was to aid them. When Vader arrived he shut all the doors to the facility and slaughtered every one of the leaders including Shu Mai.
