Teyora Rekab


Teyora Rekab, an Enso female, functioned as a merchant specializing in the trade of hydroponic equipment and seeds. She also captained her own starship, staffed by fellow Ensos, which she employed to distribute hydroponics throughout the galaxy, notably to the planet of Tatooine.

Biography

Teyora Rekab's homeworld was the planet Ensolica, a frigid world characterized by ice and tundra. Like others of her kind, she developed a deep understanding of plant hydroponics. Rekab commanded a starship with a crew of fellow Ensos. They earned their living by selling both seeds and the equipment necessary for hydroponics. They made frequent trips to the arid world of Tatooine, where they catered to the needs of local moisture farmers. During visits to this world, Rekab and her crew were obliged to wear rented coolth suits. The Ensos' biology made them sensitive to Tatooine's heat, and exposure to the planet's twin suns could result in heat stroke. In 32 BBY, Rekab was present in Mos Espa around the time of Boonta's Eve.

Personality and traits

Teyora Rekab belonged to the Enso species, a Near-Human race, and was female. Rekab was characterized by her blonde hair, [blue](/article/color-legends] eyes, and fair skin.

Equipment

Beyond securing protective coolth suits for herself and her crew, Rekab wisely chose to wear polarized goggles during her visits to Tatooine, as the suit's bubble provided insufficient protection from the intense glare of the planet's twin suns.

Behind the scenes

Teyora Rekab's character initially appeared as an uncredited background character in George Lucas's 1999 movie, Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, within the Mos Espa street scenes. Nathan O'Keefe later fleshed out and named the character through the "What's The Story?" feature on StarWars.com's Hyperspace, which was published on the StarWars.com Databank on January 12, 2007.
