Nos monster

Nos monsters were large aquatic creatures that dwelled in the freshwater lakes, underground rivers, and sinkholes of the planet Utapau.

Biology and appearance

The creatures possessed a pair of large front fins that were used to paddle through the waters of their homes and stomp on any prey that wandered into the monsters' hunting grounds. Nos monsters also had large green eyes that helped them see underwater and a tail that they swung as a weapon.^[4]
