Uvak

"Such beautiful creatures."

- Kaliska

Uvaks were a large, membranous-winged reptavian species with sharp beaks. They were native to the planet of Kesh, where they were used by members of the Lost Tribe of Sith for transportation. Some uvaks were raised for rake-riding, having their wing muscles clipped upon hatching and being rendered flightless. Vestara Khai owned an uvak named Tikk, which she obtained in a competition at the age of ten years old.

Uvak are known to become attached to their riders and can be temperamental when separated from him or her. On Kesh, in the time before the Omen crash landed, uvak riders, called Neshtovar, were highly respected members of Keshiri society and were thought to descend directly from the Skyborn.

Adari Vaal had inherited an uvak named Nink from her Neshtovar husband after he died. This same uvak is the one she used to escape the Keshiri mob and later during the Keshiri revolt against the Sith on Kesh around 4,975 BBY. Vaal also rode Nink across the sea to Keshtah Major.
