Daka, also known as Old Daka, was an elderly female Nightsister who lived in the Nightsister lair on her homeworld Dathomir during the Clone Wars. The oldest and wisest of the Nightsisters, her vast knowledge of arcane magicks was unprecedented. As the elder of her clan, Daka passed down her expertise to the other Nightsisters. This lended her the reputation of being the most powerful member of her clan. The clan’s leader, Mother Talzin, regarded Daka so in particular. One such ability was resurrecting the dead. The skill was notably used during the Battle of Dathomir, where the sisters stood against the vengeful Count Dooku’s Confederacy of Independent Systems. The sisterhood’s victory was not to be, however, as Daka was stabbed by one of Supreme Commander of the Droid Army General Grievous’ lightsabers. Before death however, Daka was able to direct the witch of no clan Falta to the location of her daughter, who had previously joined the Nightsisters.
