Druulgothan

"The boy's a Jedi. Kill him."

- Boba Fett to the crowd gathered at Al the Alchemist's cantina

The Druulgothans were a species of sentients that resembled lizard. In the year 0 BBY, several Druulgothans visited a cantina on the planet Toprawa. The cantina, Al The Alchemists, was patronized by gun-runners, mercenaries, and bounty hunters from across the galaxy, among them the infamous Boba Fett. Also present in the cantina on this occasion was Havet Storm, a young, Human boy whose grandfather was a Jedi Knight. The patrons soon discovered that Storm was carrying a lightsaber, and, the Druulgothans included, gathered around the boy, staring at him with hostility. Fett, who bore a grudge against Jedi, ordered the assorted patrons of the cantina to kill Storm. Storm, however, escaped, and years later trained a Jedi Knight himself.

Behind the scenes
"They are standing around you in a close ring – humans, lizard-like Druulgothans, Ma'alkerrite ape-men, winged Banasthaurs – gun-runners, mercenaries, and bounty hunters from all across the galaxy. And they are all staring at you."

- The Druulgothans are mentioned in the front matter of The Lost Jedi

The Druulgothans were created by Paul Cockburn, author of the pick-a-path adventure Jedi Dawn, published by Boxtree Ltd in 1993. The species, however, is not mentioned in the adventure itself; they are only mentioned in the front matter immediately following the book's cover. The scene described on this page does match closely a scene contained in the adventure, which does mention "a lizard-faced creature with a rasping voice." The Druulgothans are also mentioned in the front matter of The Lost Jedi, published in 1992, which collected Jedi Dawn and its sequel The Bounty Hunter.
