Teun Mu was the [[Sullustan]] captain of the ''[[Venture]]'' who was trapped in [[Selbar]] during the [[Battle of Bandomeer]].<ref name=":0">[[Besieged]]</ref>

== Biography ==
Late in the 14th month of the [[Clone Wars]], Mu took the ''[[Venture]]'' away from [[Thomquizzar]] to [[Bandomeer]], where he was able to avoid the bulk of their fleet and deliver supplies to Selbar, but the ship took enough damage that it required significant repairs, and the fleet moved in to trap him dirtside, hiding under the shield. Mu became the [[Separatist]] second-in-command behind [[General Grievous]], but he had little to contribute when it came to ground combat. The ''Venture'' was cannibalized for parts, with its turbolasers being used as point defense throughout the city and other engine parts repairing the ''[[Demask]]'', which Mu became captain of. Despite this, he maintained his quarters on the ''Venture'', as if holding out hope that his old ship was repairable.<ref name=":0" />

When [[General Grievous]] chose to leave Selbar and try to kill [[Sadiya Keldon]] and [[Kuallue]], Mu was present for the planning but said little. After the mission's failure, Mu relayed orders from the [[Separatist Council]] that Grievous was too valuable to be captured, and he devised a plan to send out [[Vulture Droid]]s flying low, hugging the cliff face to prevent them from being targeted by the [[Galactic Republic|Republic's]] anti-air guns at camp aurek. A few minutes later, [[TeenPat]] carried out this plan.<ref name=":0" />

Mu continued to remain aboard the two [[Separatist]] capital ships, and he worked to establish clearer communication protocols between the Separatists and [[Babteer Pil]], ensuring that the irregular navy could effectively coordinate itself when it was needed. That happened after [[Selbar|Selbar's]] shield went down in the 2nd day of month 16 ABG, and Mu took command of the aerial battle. Grievous ordered him to launch fighters, using them to distract the ''[[Kalpana]]'' that was bombarding them, while the ''[[Demask]]'' would remain in place with shields up.<ref name=":0" /> They performed admirably, buying time for Separatists on the ground to spread out and mobilize.<ref name=":0" /> 

Grievous was able to march directly into the [[Galactic Republic]]'s camp aurek and begin siezing the starships, at which point Mu took off with the ''[[Demask]]'', leading the ''Kalpana'' on a chase away from [[Selbar]]. The ''Kalpana'', chaotic with the lack of working communications, saw Kuallue, [[Captain Karne]], and [[Admiral Dorain]] struggling to relay orders to other parts of the ship.<ref name=":0" /> When they were attacked by Grievous's new hijacked fleet, Kuallue went back and forth on his orders, causing further confusion until it was too late. Their engines were targeted, and multiple were destroyed in the confusion, causing the battlecruiser to crash.<ref name=":0" /> 

With the destruction of the ''Kalpana'', it freed the way for the Separatists to flee the planet. However, Grievous was feeling confident and instead decided to stand and fight against the two remaining [[Acclamator-class Assault Ship]]s. When he described his strategy to Mu, Mu concluded that Grievous must have some reinforcements that he didn't know about. With that in mind, Grievous carried on with his plan, figuring that [[Sadiya Keldon]] would come to the same conclusion Mu did and retreat. In reality, the reinforcements were still many hours away. <ref name=":0" />

After a rendezvous on the ''[[Demask]]'', Grievous ordered WanThir to take command of the ''[[Micah Giiett]]'', their second-largest starship, while he sent [[LilVas]] to get more supplies from camp aurek. Grievous, Teun Mu, and  [[TeenPat]] stayed on the bridge of the ''Demask''. The ''Micah Giiett'' and ''Demask'' fought back-to-back for the final battle with remaining Republic naval forces. However, the former was quickly damaged, and an ion bomb knocked their shields offline for a minute. They would've been destroyed were it not for a sacrifice by [[LilVas]], which bought WanThir's crew time to get their shields back up.<ref name=":0" />

Later, both ships were forced to disengage and go further into the planet's gravity well, which [[Sadiya Keldon]] interpreted as a trap, trying to lure her ships downward so that that could be surrounded by incoming Separatist reinforcements. As Grievous had hoped, Keldon retreated, and the Separatists took control of [[Bandomeer]].<ref name=":0" />
