Betancy first appeared in the 2014 Star Wars Rebels episode "Breaking Ranks." They were first identified in the 2015 junior novel, Servants of the Empire: Rebel in the Ranks, although it was not specified which of the four Unit Besh cadets seen in "Breaking Ranks" was Betancy.

Their gender was never stated, but Fry's comment that there were no female cadets seen in "Breaking Ranks" indicates he considered Betancy male.
