10 Star Wars Fates Worse Than Death
4. Meeting A Geonosian Brain Worm
Geonosis was the location of the best scenes in Attack of the Clones. It is there that Anakin, Obi-Wan and Padmé face the arena, only to be saved by the Jedi and the Clone Army. In the Clone Wars TV Series, this planet receives more detail - although it may have been better if it hadn't.
The ruler of Geonosis was Queen Karina the Great, an 8.6 metre long monstrosity who planned to conquer the Republic and the Jedi, using her children to do so. Her children were Brain Worms - parasites that would enter a host and bring them completely under her control - even restoring the dead to life.
Even after Karina's defeat, some of her children survived and managed to infect several of the Clones (and one Jedi Padawan Barriss Offee), posing a serious threat to the rest of the Galaxy, before Ashoka Tano was able to defeat them.
These nasty little creatures may yet still be out there, waiting to infect the next unknowing soul.
