Dostans were a bipedal tentacled species. Some members of this species could be found dwelling on Kundu Minor.[1]

Biology and appearance

Dostans were bipedal species with two legs, as well as two arms with three wide fingers each. They sported five tentacles from their faces, between their nose and their mouth, with two longer ones on the side commonly being wrapped around the sides of their heads and secured at their nape, while the other three were much smaller, dangling over their lips. They had orange skin with either red or green patterns on their long tentacles that bled down onto their chin and torso.[1]

History

At some point during the High Republic Era, at least two Dostans took up residence on the arid planet Kundu Minor, bearing clothes and equipment that protected them from the local sandstorms, and charting the dangerous cave systems near where they dwelt. These Dostans came into conflict with the Besalisk Braygh when she mistook them protecting one of her droids from a sandstorm for them stealing it. Eventually, with help from a few Jedi, they were able to sort this misunderstanding out and became amicable neighbors.[1]

Behind the scenes

The Dostans first appeared in "Little Lost Droid," the second part of the thirty-ninth episode of the Disney+ and Disney Junior animated series Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures,[1] which aired on March 19, 2025.[2] The species was designed by artist Chris Blackstock.[3]
