Favorite Star Wars Species

[Deleted]

Well, there is only ONE Zabrak in the Movies: Darth Maul. Another was Kao Cen Darach from SWTOR intro.

Jedi Master Eeth Koth was also a Zabrak.

Fine ill say it. Twi'lek Females

^^

[Flatspriest]

klingons for sure ;>

Star Wars! Not Uranus.

[timberx]

None. Star Wars lore is shallow and only exists to sell toys for Lucas.

Bro, do you even Expanded Universe?

Isn't there one in episode 3 when they attack Sidious? Even if there isn't and despite Disney retconning the EU they still have pretty cool lore.

I like female Twi'leks as well but the male one from the original movies with the sharp teeth and Lekku set up just made the species lower on the totem pole. Maybe Rattataki overall for me because they make good villains or just crazies. But twi'leks and rattataki overall for me are the top. I would say Chiss from swtor if there were more eye choices.

I completely disagree about Bib Fortuna (the male twi'lek) - obviously twi'lek females are (some would say disturbingly) hot - but if that's all the race was I wouldn't be voting for them. I think that the potential for variation in twi'lek appearance - makes them more interesting. Bib Fortuna, the male twi'lek who was Jabba the Hutt's chief of staff - demonstrates that twi'lek appearance is subject to circumstance and - potentially - their character.

Other male twi'leks we see are often Light Side, but they often appear smooth and youthful like their twi'lek female counterparts - Bib shows us that this is not always true.

We also find Twi'leks all over the galaxy, often in positions of power, on every side of every conflict (they're not all good or all evil) - there are twi'lek authoritarians and twi'lek outlaws.

As opposed to most of the races in SW - who are either typecast as either 'good', 'evil', or 'extras' - twi'lek are easily the most diverse and versatile, and generally well-written race, apart from humans (being that the audience and authors are all humans, I chalk that up to bias).

Female Twi'leks.

Because of Fanart.

Female Twi'leks.

The correct answer.

I'll have to go with the Kaleesh, the ancient warrior species that spawned General Grievous.

So? Doesn't stop me from enjoying the multitudes of games/stories/comics/etc.

Ewoks or Wookiees, with Ewoks probably being just that tiny bit more awesome.

Do you remember how the Ewok were going to eat everyone but CP30 saved them? Now remember the end where they are using the storm troopers helmets as drum sets..and think about what they are eating as they celebrate their victory.

[Super Kami Dende]

Chiss.

They are the only Race that the Empire actually forged an Alliance with instead of just subjugating due to the Chiss Ascendancy being some of the greatest fleets in the Galaxy.



ALL HAIL MITTH'RAW'NURUODO!!

All species that knew of it feared the Mnggal-Mnggal, even the chiss.

[ArguesWithStrangers]

Bothans........... Because so many of them died.

In all seriousness though. I always liked the depiction of the Chiss. I'm not sure they are cannon anymore though because the Expanded Universe has been thrown out.

Despite their... questionable diet, they still look rather funny at least. But yes, having an Ewok around you probably wouldn't be safe.

And I hereby change my favorite species to the Jawa, totally forgot them until Tijuana mentioned them (Blizz in SWTOR is a great character after all).

[SlayAllDay]

Twi'leks!!!! They remind me of drainei in a way from world of warcraft.

[Hooked]

Boba fett was the coolest star wars character.
