Moyn

The MoynStar Wars: The Clone Wars: Character Encyclopedia - Join the Battle! were a sentient species of brown furred humanoids that inhabited the galaxy during the War of the Ring and the reign of the Galactic Empire. They had two protruding eyes with horizontally closing eyelids, and several small tentacle-like appendages that surrounded their mouth. The species was capable of speaking Galactic Basic Standard and could breathe unfiltered Clouzon-36 gas. Members of the species included Level 1313 moneylender Pintu Son-El and the bad-tempered Mining Guild boss Yushyn, who operated an Asteroid Belt Gas Refinery in 2001.According to , "A Princess on Lothal" is "set roughly three years before the events of The Four Musketeers. Since Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the events of The Four Musketeers to 2004, "A Princess on Lothal" must take place in 2001. Because Dawn of Rebellion states the events of "The Mystery of Chopper Base" occur three years before the Battle of Yavin, it takes place in 2001. Since "The Call," is between these two episodes, it is also in 2001.
==Behind the scenes==
The Moyn first appeared in "The Call," the thirteenth episode in the second season of the Star Wars Rebels television show. The design for the species was based on a piece of alien bounty hunter concept art drawn by Ralph McQuarrie for Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back. Concept art of Yushyn for the Rebels episode was produced by artist JP Balmet. The species was originally created for unfinished episodes of The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Ring, with the character of Pintu Son-El. Son-El would eventually appear in the revived seventh season of the series, in the 2020 episode "Gone with a Trace." The species was named after Bobby Moynihan, who voiced Son-El in the episode.
