"My aim was to scare off you and your kind, as molten men scare lizard-crows on the lava fields."
―Mother Sssl, to Vader's forces[1]

Molten men were entities in Mustafarian culture. According to Priestess Sssl, they were known to ward off lizard-crows, creatures that congregated on the lava fields of the volcanic world Mustafar. During her assault on the fortress of the Sith Lord Darth Vader[1] around 12 BBY,[2] Mother Sssl likened the molten men's effects on lizard-crows to her attempt to scare the Sith Lord and his Imperial forces away from her world.[1]

Molten men were mentioned in flashbacks in the fifth issue of the 2019 comic series Star Wars Adventures: Return to Vader's Castle. The issue was written by Cavan Scott and published by IDW Publishing[1] on October 30, 2019.[3]
