Biography
Family
Toby Hamee is a young female Hork-Bajir Seer, the daughter of Jara Hamee and Ket Halpak, and the great-granddaughter of Aldrea-Iskillion-Falan and Dak Hamee. She is the first free Hork-Bajir born in the Free Hork-Bajir Colony. She is named after Tobias, who was influential in helping Jara Hamee and Ket Halpak escape from the Yeerks.[1][2] She has a younger brother.[3]
Because Hork-Bajirs physically mature quickly and have shorter lifespans than humans or Andalites[4], Toby matures very quickly after her birth. She is "a bit shorter than the average Hork-Bajir female" with a "guttural voice."
Toby is a Seer like her paternal great-grandfather Dak Hamee, which means she is far more intelligent than most of her species; while the average Hork-Bajir's mental limits are about that of a human child, rare genetic abnormalities like Toby can be as or even more intelligent than humans or Andalites. The term "seer" means "clairvoyant" or "prophet", which ultimately means one who is able to see what others cannot. Due to this natural ability, other Hork-Bajir, including her parents, consider her to be the colony's leader and trust her to lead them.
Andalite-Yeerk War
Toby fought the Yeerks both with her own people and occasionally with the assistence of the Animoprhs. She led several raids the Yeerk Pool installations to liberate Hork-Bajir-Controllers and starve the Yeerks inside their heads of Kandrona rays. Additionally, she lead the Hork-Bajir in the final offensive against the Yeerks on Earth, where she helps the Animorphs in taking over the Pool ship.
After the end of the war, Toby is appointed Governor of the Free Hork-Bajir Colony on Earth, and is given a non-voting membership in U.S. Congress on behalf of her people. Additionally, Toby and her free Hork-Bajirs were given Yellowstone National Park as a new home. Cassie worked with her a lot following the war.[5]
