Hyropodic aetherbeast

Hyropodic aetherbeasts were a type of creature native to only three biomes on the world of Yolthani VI. They possessed a large muscled upper torso, with two arms and a head. Their faces included two white eyes and a mouth of sharp teeth surrounded by red tentacle-like appendages. The beasts' skin was purple with red spots covering parts of their head, shoulders and upper arms.

Around 0 ABY, a hyropodic aetherbeast was brought before the queen of the planet Ktath'atn as a curiosity in the hopes that it would pique her interest enough for her to grant its owner an audience to make a request of her. The queen was initially interested in the beast enough to consider its owner's request but ultimately turned the owner away with compensation after being presented with the Jedi Luke Skywalker by the archaeologist Doctor Chelli Lona Aphra.
