Bedhead was a domesticated kusak residing on Lok during the era of the Galactic Civil War. Following the Battle of Yavin, this animal became a member of a kusak group of ten, which included Runt, Blinky, Scarecrow, Slobbers, Troubles, Wart Face, Gargle, Ding, and Speedbump. These kusaks were trained by the Lok Revenants to serve as guards for Nym's Stronghold. In 1 ABY, an explorer offered Lokkian weed to the creature. Bedhead only enjoyed a specific type of weed, which forced the explorer to gather and test various plants to discover Bedhead's preferred variety.
Bedhead made an appearance in Star Wars Galaxies, a video game released in 2003. This massively multiplayer online roleplaying game was created by Sony Online Entertainment and distributed by LucasArts. The game was shut down on December 15, 2011. Bedhead was integrated into the game as a component of the updated "Nym's Theme Park," which was launched with "Game Update 16," on March 23, 2010.
The kusak was a component of the "Caring for the Kusaks" collection. A player would receive one of ten distinct varieties of Lokian weed each time they completed the "Weed Whacker Foliage Requisition" quest. These weeds could be given to the kusaks as food, but each of the ten kusaks located in or around the stronghold would only accept one type of weed, chosen randomly.
