Lasat

"Are all Lasat this touchy?" "I don't know because I've never seen another Lasat. It turns out not many people have."

- Ezra and Hera, on Zeb Orrelios

The Lasat were a sentient species that existed in the galaxy during the reign of the Galactic Empire. Within the species, those with fighting skills were highly revered, often being a part of the Lasan Honor Guard. Bo-rifles were a unique weapon, used exclusively by the Lasan Honor Guard. Lasat legs enable them to run faster, jump higher, and move more quietly than Humans. Their facial hair is an important status symbol.

During its reign, the Galactic Empire devastated the Lasat homeworld of Lasan, killing nearly all members of the species. Since then, the Lasat were rarely seen in the galaxy. In their conquest of the Lasat, T-7 ion disruptors were used extensively by the Galactic Empire. This lead to a strong hatred and distrust of such weapons by Lasat.

A notable Lasat was Garazeb Orrelios, a soldier and rebel.

Behind the scenes
The appearance of the Lasat species is based on early concept drawings by Ralph McQuarrie for the character that became Chewbacca.
