Vepp was a Human male character who worked aboard the Republic cruiser called the Esseles. He served during the Cold War period, a time of tension between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire. During the attack on the ship, Vepp, along with his commanding officer Salen, found themselves stuck in the engineering deck alongside the other engineers. As a team tried to fight off the invading Mandalorian and Imperial forces, Vepp proposed redirecting the power generators as an alternative to depressurizing the engineering bay.
Vepp's character was developed for Star Wars: The Old Republic, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game that BioWare launched on December 20, 2011. He is featured in the Republic Flashpoint titled Esseles.
