Nightmare demon

Nightmare Demon was the name of a near mythical species from the planet Droxine. They were believed to be extinct.

Biology and appearance
Nightmare Demons were small, fur-covered, two-tailed sentients. Their cranium, unlike the rest of their body, was hairless, exposing the creature's apparent exoskeleton. They demonstrated telepathic abilities, able to enter a being's mind and immobilize them with their worst fears (hence their name). A curious feature of this telepathy was that it could apparently be blocked by lead.

History
Nightmare Demons were said to have been wiped out "before the Clone Wars", but the circumstances of this are unknown. At least one survivor by the name of Reist was encountered by Luke Skywalker after the Battle of Hoth.
