The title of this article is conjectural.

Although this article is based on official information from the Star Wars Legends continuity, the actual name of this subject is pure conjecture.

This species of bipedal sentients lived on a planet in the Outer Rim, near the border of Galactic Republic space. Their face was split down the middle, flaring out in two flaps over a mouth full of sharp white teeth. They wore goggles over their two eyes.[2]

Their homeworld was conquered by Mandalorian forces under control of Rohlan Dyre, a Mandalorian Crusader who was trying to escape the army so as to discover the true motivation of the Mandalorian expansion. He killed many of the species' blue uniformed military while making his escape.[2] A member of this species was also sighted on the Sith homeworld of Korriban in 3993 BBY.[1]

Behind the scenes

This species was created by Dustin Weaver in the comic Shadows and Light, published in Tales 23 in May 2005. Only one member of the species was seen, as this only on the very edge of one panel. When Weaver later worked on Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic in September 2006, he drew this species being conquered by the Mandalorians, as a fun tie in to his earlier work.[3]
