The Varactyl was also a rideable mount awarded to any player who bought the digital download edition of Rage of the Wookiees in Star Wars Galaxies.

This species of cliff-climbing lizards is native to the planet Utapau. Loyal and smart, these creatures are often ridden for quick transport from one place to another. A loyal, plumed female varactyl named Boga is the mount of choice of Obi-Wan Kenobi during his pursuit of General Grievous in Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.
