Dowutin

The Dowutin were a species of large humanoids that were native to the frigid planet Dowut, which was located in the Core Worlds. They were known for their mercenaries. One Dowutin was a part of a gladiatorial program run by the Xonti Brothers. They put the Dowutin through harsh training which killed three of the other members. It faced off with the other remaining member, a Wookiee named Black Krrsantan, and was struck down in one punch. Grummgar, a member of this species, was present at Maz Kanata's castle with the spy Bazine Netal just before the First Order attacked the castle. Another Dowutin was the Ninth Sister, who originally had ties with the Jedi Order before joining Emperor Palpatine's Inquisitorius program.

Behind the scenes
The Dowutin were first pictured in a Vanity Fair article released May 4, 2015 which included a group photo of characters in Maz Kanata's castle. The species first appeared in 2015 with an expansion added to the mobile game Star Wars: Commander.
