Teedo (Niima Outpost)

Teedo was a green-skinned humanoid scavenger who operated in the wastes of the desert world of Jakku approximately thirty years after Battle of Endor.[4] Like the rest of his species, which was also known as Teedo, Teedo had a strange sense of identity that led him to refer to himself as Teedo.[1] Teedo rode a luggabeast as a beast of burden. In 34 ABY, the astromech droid BB-8 was caught in a net on Teedo's luggabeast, leading fellow scavenger Rey to free the droid.[3] The next morning, Teedo and two other bandits attempted to steal BB-8 from Rey as they left her home for Niima Outpost. Rey was able to escape Teedo by forcing him to follow her into a crashed Star Destroyer, where his speeder bike was eaten by a nightwatcher worm.[5]

Behind the scenes
Teedo is portrayed by Kiran Shah and voiced by David Acord in the 2015 film Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens. Shah wore a full-body suit to portray the character.[3]
