Special Traits:

• Limited Lifespan (Gamorreans have a shorter life than most species, being considered venerable past their mid forties and rarely making it beyond their 60s, if that.)
• Primitive (Unlike most species, Gamorreans are a very primitive culture, and do not automatically know how to use blasters, heavy weapons and other complex weaponry.

• Equipment: Protection Goggles, Antiox Breath Mask

Cost: -2w

Kel Dor originate from Dorin, a world with a unique atmosphere composed mostly of helium and a unique gas only found on that world, making said atmosphere lethal to non-natives, yet perfectly comfortable for the Kel Dor. That being said, their vision gets blurred, and they cannot breathe in the atmosphere of most systems with the common nitrogen/oxygen gases, forcing them to use special goggles and masks to function normally outside of their world. Still, Kel Dorians can see very well in darkness, are renowned to be fairly wise and agile, and their Force Users are especially talented at sensing through the Force.

Miraluka

Normal Maximum Abilities/Modifiers: Int 9, Str 6, Agl 4, Spd 4, Dur 6, Ref.Dodge +4, Toughness +4, Mental Defense +6

Special Traits:

• +2 to Midi-Chlorians
• Force Sight modifier (Miraluka can 'see' through the Force whenever any lifeform of any kind is present within Area 6 of themselves as long as they have some degree of connection to the Force, allowing Miraluka to see, read or write just as well if not better than if they had eyes. They ignore all negative sitmods for cover and concealment when perceiving their surroundings, and can see perfectly in Darkness as per Enhanced Vision 7 (See in Darkness). However, all said advantages are negated, leaving them blind in the absence of such lifeforms, or in the presence of a Force-negating location or creature such as the Ysalamari, making Miraluka especially vulnerable to such effects.)
• 'Physical disability' challenge (-3; physically blind. Miraluka have no eyes. If their Force Sight is somehow negated, they are fully and absolutely blind.)
• 'Genetic incompatibility' challenge (-1; interspecies marriage is usually frowned upon among Miraluka, due to their unique genetics often having unhappy and unpredictable results on their offsprings with other species. There are exceptions, but Miraluka usually stick to Miraluka relationships.)

Cost: 3w

A remarkably near-human species showing very few differences biologically from humans, with two exceptions: Miraluka have no eyes at all, and all Miraluka are Force sensitive. They perceive their surroundings constantly with the help of the Force, and as such tend to be excellent Jedi. Their homeworld is known as Alpheridies in the Albron system, but Miraluka can be found anywhere in the Galaxy, just like their human cousins.

Their language, Nautila, is best understood underwater and heavily relies on pheromone use, making it lose a lot of its complexity and meanings out of water, meaning most Nautolans rely on other languages when on the surface. While peaceful and friendly, Nautolans tend to reflect the emotions of those around them, so being angry around one might cause them to respond in kind.

---

Normal Maximum Abilities/Modifiers: Int 8, Str 6, Agl 5, Spd 4, Dur 7, Ref.Dodge +4, Toughness +4, Mental Defense +6

Special Traits:

Quarrens blame both the Empire and the Alliance for the devastation their homeworld endured, and tend to be at odds with their neighbors, the Mon Calamari.

• Healing Factor
• Enhanced Vision 3 (Telescopic vision, See in Darkness, Sense Light/Dark side of the Force)
• Secretive (-1; Talortai are a mysterious species who probably know a lot more than they let on, or are willing to talk about. They tend not to like to discuss their species, society, or beliefs with outsiders.)
• Social Stigma (-2; In Talortai society, Force Sensitivity, while common, seems like a taboo subject, almost shameful to be spoken about. Most Talortai keep their Force Sensitivity to themselves, and those who can use the Force often do so only when necessary.)

Cost: 3w

Talortai are a mysterious species of Force Sensitive beings with both avian and reptilian qualities. Very little is known about them as most tend to keep to themselves, avoid outsiders, keep their mouth (beak?) shut, and speak as few words as necessary when speaking is actually necessary. Talortai are all gifted in the Force, but very few actually join either the Jedi or the Sith, as for reasons likely known only to them, their Force Sensitivity is not seen as either a gift nor a good thing for most of their members. A shame, really, since they are very talented at it, able to even distinguish easily between the Light and Dark side of the Force only with their basic senses. In addition to those abilities, Talortai are known to be immune to the effects of aging, and to heal faster than most species.

Cost: 2w

Native of a system known as Shili, the Togruta have evolved as excellent pack hunters amidst the world's dense forests, wild scrublands and its growing urban areas. As they work more effectively in a group, individualism is frowned upon, and yet, power and prestige is generally acquired through such individuality. Togruta are easily recognized by their brightly colored horns, heads, tails and skin, which allows them to hide effectively in the planet's naturally red and white flora. Outsiders often believe them to be venomous, but that is merely a rumor; while their fangs are quite sharp, it is the bite that causes the kill, not the venom, or rather lack thereof.

---

However, they are mostly known for both being one of the most enslaved species in the Galaxy, and for some of their numbers being among the slavers themselves. Twi'Leks enjoy manipulating events from the shadows, having a tendency to act as often as diplomats and ambassadors as they are likely to serve as crime lords' right-hand men. Female Twi'Leks are known to be among the most beautiful women in the Galaxy, a reputation which unfortunately cause them to be highly sought after as sex slaves and exotic dancers, with blue-skinned ones being among the most valuable slaves, right behind the even rarer red skinned ones.

They become highly loyal, devoted and willing to serve and lay down their life for their savior, seeing it as only natural since they literally owe them their life.)

Cost: 3w

Wookies are widely considered to be one of the strongest, and most fierce intelligent lifeforms in the Galaxy. They are an honorable and loyal species who have a wealth of customs and traditions based on said honor, including a strong bond to their families and the powerful custom known as the 'Life Debt'. Wookies were widely enslaved for their physical might by the Galactic Empire, but that didn't stop them from gaining a reputation as a people not to mess with. Climbing with the help of one's claws is seen as highly dishonorable among them, and also believed to be a sign of madness.

While usually peaceful and seeking enjoyable neighbors due to their highly empathic nature, their interests can vary wildly, and one can just as easily find a Zeltron relaxing on a warm beach as they can encounter one wearing full-body armor and opening fire in the enemy lines with dual-wielded blasters.
