Bitey, the Castilon gorg owned by merchants Flix and Orka, received his name from his propensity to mistake fingers for food and bite them. Kazuda Xiono, a spy working for the Resistance, originally got Bitey as a meal for Flix and Orka. However, the merchants decided to keep him as a pet instead. Later, Bitey played a part in Kaz's efforts to prevent the First Order from stealing a crucial phase connector.
During the New Republic era, Bolza Grool, a Klatooinian merchant, was selling gorgs on the Colossus, one of which was Bitey. To secure used starship components for repairing his Fireball for a race against Torra Doza, Kazuda Xiono, a Resistance operative, struck a bargain with Flix and Orka, promising them lunch in exchange for the parts. He promised Grool, the vendor, to put his logo on the ship in return for the animal. Xiono's delay meant Flix and Orka were already eating when he arrived, but they accepted the gorg and honored the agreement regardless.
Instead of consuming the gorg, Flix and Orka opted to adopt him as a pet, bestowing upon him the name Bitey. While visiting the Office of Acquisitions to procure a new CoMar Tri-Tracker chip for the Colossus' turbolaser defense system, Kaz and BB-8, the BB-series astromech droid, encountered Bitey. Bitey then landed on BB-8, irritating the droid.
Later on, Bitey was present at the Office of Acquisitions while Kaz was covering for Flix and Orka, who were visiting Flix's mother. Kaz was also tasked with looking after the gorg, but he found Bitey's habit of biting fingers quite annoying. Teroj Kee, a Keteerian criminal who had arrived to steal a phase connector, also experienced Bitey's bite.
During an attempt to retrieve the phase connector, Bitey went with Kaz aboard Terroj's Darius G-class freighter. Bitey aided Kaz by disrupting the power cables, which resulted in the ship crashing into the ocean. Despite being separated, Bitey successfully escaped the sinking vessel and was rescued by Kaz. This experience led Kaz to develop a greater fondness for the gorg.
During the occupation of the Colossus by the First Order, Bitey, along with his owners Flix and Orka, and G-LN, the DUM-series pit droid, concealed themselves inside a crate. Flix's intention was to smuggle themselves offworld to avoid the First Order's control. During the Battle of Castilon, Kaz discovered their hiding place and informed them that the station was submerged.
Bitey was a male gorg characterized by gray skin and turquoise eyes. His penchant for biting earned him the moniker "Bitey." He maintained a positive relationship with his owners, Flix and Orka. He possessed sufficient intelligence to assist Kaz in disabling a First Order freighter transporting a phase connector offworld.
Bitey's initial appearance was in "The Recruit," the first episode of Star Wars Resistance, which debuted on October 7, 2018. Throughout the series' first season, he made several brief appearances.
