"He calls himself Yeep. I don't know if that's his name, his species, or the word for his chest."

―Tuner Ryna^[src]

Yeep was a Teek male who found his way onto the starship of space-farer Tuner Ryna before or during 22 BBY. Although unsure if "Yeep" was in fact the stowaway's name, Ryna entered him in 22 BBY's annual "Mobquet Presents: Fastest Land Beings" event on the planet Teyr. Yeep easily won the competition's biped race and was afterward declared sentient enough to keep his first-place medal, which he attempted to eat.

BiographyEdit

"The prestigious biped title was awarded under protest to a late entrant of unknown origins. Space-farer Tuner Ryna entered the furry being with pointy ears who 'just showed up one day' aboard his ship."

―A HoloNet News report on the "Mobquet Presents: Fastest Land Beings" event of 22 BBY^[src]

A Teek male known as Yeep lived during the waning years of the Galactic Republic. Prior to or during the year 22 BBY, he showed up aboard the space-farer Tuner Ryna's starship. Yeep was able to communicate his name to Ryna, but the space-farer was not entirely certain what the word "Yeep" meant, and considered the possibility that it referred to the stowaway's species, or perhaps his chest.^[1]

In 22 BBY, Ryna brought Yeep to the city of Pyre Folas on the planet Teyr and entered him in the annual "Mobquet Presents: Fastest Land Beings" event. Yeep was a late entrant in the competition's biped race, which he easily won by putting on a burst of speed and outdistancing all of his opponents. As he was a being of "unknown origins," Yeep's victory was protested, but the event's judges declared him "adequately sentient" and awarded him the prestigious biped title, which came with a medal. Yeep attempted to eat the medal while being photographed by HoloNet News.^[1]

Personality and traitsEdit

"The judges deemed Yeep to be 'adequately sentient' after easily out-distancing the field with a flash of speed."

―HoloNet News^[src]

Yeep had black eyes, peach-colored skin, and a coat of fur made up of both white and gray hair. He had difficulty communicating with Tuner Ryna, and was a mysterious enough creature to the judges and spectators of "Mobquet Presents: Fastest Land Beings" to have his sentience called into question.^[1] Like other members of his species,^[2] Yeep could run at a considerably fast speed. After winning the Mobquet race, he mistook his medal for food and placed it inside his mouth.^[1]
