VeerTa
this Meerian woman was the leader of the Home Planet Party, some 12 years before the Battle of Naboo. She was fiercely loyal to her people and her homeworld of Bandomeer, and strove to forge an alliance with the Arconans that shared the planet in order to restore it to its natural beauty. However, in order to further her plans and ideals, VeerTa entered into a secret pact with Xanatos. This put her in between her own political party, which worked with Arcona Mineral Harvest Corporation, and the leaders of Offworld Mining Company. VeerTa hoped that this alliance would free Bandomeer once Xanatos had exacted his revenge against Qui-Gon Jinn, but she ultimately discovered that she was just a pawn in Xanatos' plans to destroy the planet. VeerTa was exposed after Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan Kenobi thwarted Xanatos' plans, and she was removed from office.
