Boga/Legends

Boga is a female member of the varactyl native to Utapau. A hybrid of reptile and avian, Boga is an extremely fast creature when racing across the scrubland of her homeworld. Obi-Wan Kenobi uses Boga as his mount while tracking General Grievous during the Clone Wars.

The varactyl are lizard-like creatures with avian traits noticable in their beaked mouths and the feathers splaying from their scaled skin. Boga stands on four clawed feet, and has a long, feathered tail. The Utai learned to tame the varactyl over the years, and have become the keepers of these agile creatures. Boga is one of the fastest of her kind.

During his search for General Grievous on Utapau, Obi-Wan uses Boga as his mount, choosing her based on his feeling that she is a good creature - and is one of the fastest things on the planet. Astride Boga, Obi-Wan reaches the tenth level of Tion Medon's Pau City in record time. Boga proved a worthy match for General Grievous in his wheel bike, chasing the droid general through the city, using her clawed feet to climb the sinkhole walls in pursuit.

With Boga's help, Obi-Wan confronted and destroyed Grievous, but sadly matters took an alarming turn for the worse on Utapau. The clone troopers turned against the Jedi on the orders of Emperor Palpatine, and poor Boga was caught in the crossfire in the ensuing battle.
