Cyrillian

Cyrillians were a species of tall, sentient reptiles native to the industrialized planet Cyrillia in the Expansion Region. The species invented the DUM-series pit droid to aid them in vehicle maintenance and made use of it during the reign of the Galactic Republic, when their homeworld became part of the galactic circuit of podracing.

The species agreed to give up the rights to the model and produce it for the Serv-O-Droid, Inc. droid-manufacturing company, in return for profits after Cyrillia ceased to be part of the podracing circuit. During the Galactic Civil War, Cyrillia became a fortress world for the Galactic Empire, but the Imperials abandoned it in 6 ABY.
