The Hendanyns were a species known for the elaborate death masks they created. These masks were unique in that they established a mental link with the wearer and preserved the wearer's memories. When a Hendanyn died, the mask was removed and the memories used by future generations.
Behind the scenes
Star Wars author Abel Peña wrote a passage for the Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide where it was stated that Darth Nihilus' mask may have been of Hendanyn origin.[1] This paragraph was ultimately cut.
