Wolentic Dudge

Wolentic Dudge was a Frejuke resident of Kijimi City on the planet Kijimi. He was a good fit for the world's cold climate due to his species' heat-retaining blubber, although he also wore a brown vest lined with kybuck fur for added warmth,^[1] as well as brown pants, brown shoes, and a black belt with a comlink built into the buckle.^[2] A proud member of the city, Dudge was forced to endure its occupation under the First Order^[1] in 35 ABY, which ended with the destruction of Kijimi by the Sith Eternal.^[3] Dudge had light skin and dark eyes that were sensitive to glare.^[2]
