Whaladon

Whaladons were large mammalian creatures native to the oceans of Mon Calamari that were&mdash;contrary to expectation&mdash;sentient. They were large whale-like animals with short snouts and long flippers.

Whaladons swam in the deep trenches of the Seascape Mountains and surfaced for air three times a day. The cetaceans subsisted on schools of minnows and could grow as long as 30 meters. Their language was a sing-song infusion of high whistles and low booms.

Following the Battle of Endor, the Imperial warlord Trioculus established an operation on Mon Calamari to seek the fabled Glove of Darth Vader, which he incorrectly believed to be the key to ruling what remained of the Empire. Trioculus's operation included a Whaladon Processing Center led by Captain Dunwell and his Aqualish laborers. Dunwell hunted the Whaladons for their meat and blubber, which had been outlawed for centuries until the Empire conquered Mon Calamari. The Processing Center was destroyed with the defeat of Trioculus.

The leader of the Whaladons was known as Leviathor.
