Zymod

In 35 ABY, the Jedi-in-training Rey dodged the flick of a zymod's tongue while moving through a training course built in the jungles near the Resistance base on Ajan Kloss. A zymod was later climbing on a tree next to the base when Commander Poe Dameron announced that the Sith Lord Darth Sidious had returned.

A zymod first appeared in the 2019 sequel trilogy film, Star Wars: Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker and was identified in the accompanying reference book Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary, which was written by Pablo Hidalgo. Concept art of a zymod was created by creature concept designer Louis Wiltshire and titled "Wizard 75." In Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: A Junior Novel, a 2020 adaptation of the film written by Michael Kogge, zymod is misspelt as "zymond."
