Breedo was a Rodian enforcer[1] thought to be a cousin of the bounty hunter Greedo.[3] In the year 32 BBY,[4] the Rodian watched the Boonta Eve Classic podrace from the Toydarian junk dealer Watto's private box in the Mos Espa Grand Arena on the planet Tatooine.[2] In 0 BBY,[5] Breedo was at Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina in Tatooine's Mos Eisley spaceport when Greedo was killed by the Human smuggler Han Solo.[3]

Breedo in Super Star Wars
Breedo first appeared as multiple enemies in the Super Star Wars video game, during the Cantina level. The character appears to be a recolored version of the game's Greedo character without ears or head spikes, more resembling a Duros with its red eyes and blue skin.[6]
The game's manual does not show or mention the character, but the Super Star Wars Official Game Secrets book names the enemy and suggests they are Greedo's cousin.[3] Years later, a Rodian character first seen in Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace was identified as Breedo.[1]
