Teks existed as an urban center on the farming world of Reytha, which is classified as a planet and is featured in legends.
During the year 0 ABY, Teks, along with its associated food storage areas, was among the multiple population hubs on Reytha seized by the Rebel Alliance in an effort to destabilize the food distribution network. Following this, Teks was reclaimed by an assault team commanded by Darth Vader as part of the broader Reytha campaign.
The city of Teks is featured in the Darth Vader storyline within the video game Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds, released in 2001. This campaign was also present in the 2002 expansion, known as Clone Campaigns, for the game.
