The Huwawans were a sentient species that existed in the galaxy.[1] Brothers Taibik Kajok and Wiltoo Kajok were members of this species.[2]
Biology and appearance
The Huwawans were a bipedal humanoid sentient species distinguished by their tan skin, black hair, and large features. They spoke a language known as Huwawi with multiple dialects, and sometimes required a translation device to communicate with individuals who spoke Galactic Basic Standard.[1]
Species in the galaxy
By 132 BBY,[3] at least two[1] Huwawan[2] brothers[4], Taibik and Wiltoo Kajok, operated a small makeshift landing port on the planet Khofar, once leading visitors on expeditions into the nearby forests and treacherous jungles, though they had long since retired from that line of business.[1]
