"To the Jellyfruit Festival heroes!"

―Weebo offers a toast to Durango and the Jedi^[1]

Weebo was a Rodian female farmer who grew jellyfruit on the planet Tenoo. Around 233 BBY, her jellyfruit harvest was stolen by pirates just before the fruit was to be used for the Jellyfruit Festival. She informed the owner of the restaurant Hap's Sap Tap, Hap, of the ordeal, who was with pilot Nash Durango and three Jedi younglings. Deducing who and where the pirates were based on Weebo's and her grandson's description, the Jedi were able to bring the jellyfruit back, saving the festival.

Biography

"Hey, Weebo. How's tonight's jellyfruit shipment coming?"
"It ain't coming, Hap. It's going. A group of pirates just left with it."

―Hap and Weebo^[1]

Weebo was an elderly Rodian female jellyfruit farmer who lived on the planet Tenoo during the High Republic Era. She had a farm on which she grew jellyfruit trees.^[1] Around 233 BBY,^[2] she and her grandson had just finished picking and loading the last jellyfruit in preparation for the town of Kublop Springs' Jellyfruit Festival when the pirate Taborr Val Dorn arrived. Lowering himself from his starship, he affixed a clamp to the crate of jellyfruit and taunted the Rodians about him stealing the delicacies. As Weebo protectively stepped in front of her grandson, Taborr rode on the crate while it rose back up to the ship, laughing and boasting about the profits he would make. Weebo gave her grandson a hug and lamented that Kublop Springs would not be able to observe the Jellyfruit Festival.^[1]

The farmer then called Hap, proprietor of the eatery Hap's Sap Tap where the festival was to take place, to inform him of the unpleasent news. Hap and several kids helping him—the pilot Nash Durango and Jedi younglings Kai Brightstar, Lys Solay, and Nubs—reacted with woe. Solay inquired as to the pirates' appearance, which Weebo gave—matching that of Val Dorn, whom the Jedi and Durango had fought before. Durango promised that she and the younglings would get the fruit back, of which Hap was skeptical as they did not know where the pirates had gone. Weebo's grandson then chimed in, adding that Val Dorn had mentioned their intention to sell the stolen goods to other pirates. Durango thus concluded that he would be at the planet Yarrum, so she and the Jedi left for the world in Durango's starship, the Crimson Firehawk. Their mission was successful: they brought back the jellyfruit and allowed the merrymaking to go on. Weebo toasted a fruit to the heroes of the festival.^[1]

"Oh, honey, I know."

―Weebo's grandson and Weebo^[1]

When Weebo lost all of her jellyfruit, she hugged her grandson comfortingly, calling him "honey," but was herself also quite distraught. She was ecstatic at the fruits' return. The Rodian had green skin, black eyes, and tied-up white hair.^[1]

Equipment

Weebo donned a white shirt with a blue garment over it as well as dark pants.^[1]
