A sun snake was a type of snake.[1] Around 160 BBY,[2] the Jedi Knight Indara was captured during a mission on the planet Ruathi and forced to fight in an arena against a gheriol, a creature with a long sinuous body, six legs, and a black pelt. Upon seeing the creature, Indara thought that it looked like a cross between a tooka cat and a sun snake.[1]

Behind the scenes

A sun snake was mentioned in The Acolyte: Wayseeker, a 2025 novel written by Justina Ireland.[1]

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 The Acolyte: Wayseeker
  2. The events of Star Wars: The Acolyte take place in 132 BBY per the reasoning here. Star Wars: The Acolyte: The Visual Guide establishes that Indara is fifty-four years old in The Acolyte and also states that she is twenty-six years old during the events of The Acolyte: Wayseeker. Therefore, the events of Wayseeker must take place around 160 BBY.
