Rupings were a notable reptavian species native to the planet Onderon. They had vocal chords that produced a rasping roar, finger-like wingtips, and a thumb claw that allowed them to grasp and climb with their wings. Loyal and brave creatures,[3] ruping were used as mounts by Onderonian outcasts[1] and the Onderon rebels during the Onderon Civil War, during which the rebels equipped them with saddles and reins.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
The ruping is named after the Star Wars: The Clone Wars concept artist Tara Rueping, who designed the creature.[4]
