Memily was a female Human who was a devoted servant of Bail Organa. She performed her duties at the Royal Palace on the world of Alderaan, where she primarily cooked, cleaned, and cared for the young Princess Leia Organa. She was known for creating a special pastry known as Memily's basket.
While she was once watching Leia in a well-frequented park located in Aldera, the capital city of Alderaan, Memily was about to lean against a railing overlooking a drop-off. However, Leia threw her laserball at the railing, causing Memily to realize it was about to collapse. Aside from the knowledge that Anakin Skywalker was her father, this incident served as the initial confirmation that Leia possessed the ability to use the Force-sensitive.
