Etro Edthatt

"And it proves to me, that life does exist on other planets. I'm just not sure how intelligent it is."

- Etro Edthatt

Etro Edthatt was a Duros male. Shortly after marrying Droza Edthatt, the couple was abducted by some Humans, who held them hostage on Urthha for four solar periods, until the couple escaped the planet using a matter catalyst.

Biography
"It's a honeymoon I'll never forget."

- Droza Edthatt, while licking Etro.

Etro Edthatt married Droza Edthatt and, a short while after returning from their honeymoon, the newlyweds were attacked by a group of Humans with metal sticks, forced out of their transport and loaded into what it looked like to them an "upside-down" re-humidifier. The Humans then blinded the Duros and levitated them to securely displace the couple to their homeworld of Urthha.

Arriving on the planet, the Duros couple adjusted their aural synchronizers, since neither one of them spoke Galactic Basic Standard, to readily comprehend Human speech. They were then taken to a party, where Etro was shown imagery of naked females, much to his surprise. Thinking Human cuisine resembled Vretham food, Etro started stamping it, which angered the hostess. He ate a potato, but it made him feel sick and break out in collard lesions, scarying away the all Humans. With the house empty, the Duros couple used the privacy to go to the freezer.

The Edthatts spent their remaining solar periods on Urrtha bouncing on antennas, reading vegetables and choking books and paintings, also noting a lack of good things to scratch. On the day a Human youngling tried to throw "folded piles of paper" at the house, he helped the couple leave the planet by means of a matter catalyst, known locally as a "blender", after the child beat them in a "professional-level game of Twister".

The Edthatts would later recall the experience with joy in a thorough article for Galactic Gossip, written by Trebor Uarrac.

Behind the scenes
Etro Edthatt was featured in a supermarket tabloid parody attributed to Trebor Uarrac of the Galactic Gossip in Monsters and Aliens from George Lucas, a book published in 1993 that combined photos and concept art from the Original trilogy and other Lucasfilm productions with a variety of short fiction pieces. In the story, two Duros newlyweds named Etro and Droza Edthatt are "abducted by human beings" from the planet "Urthha". After over four solar periods of bizarre experiences, they somehow use a "matter catalyst", which the humans call a "blender", to leave the planet. A picture of the Edthatts, originally a production photo from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, is included with the story. The Duros in the original picture were canonically identified as Chachi De Maal and Ohwun De Maal. Lucasfilm employee Leland Chee, who maintains the Holocron continuity database, has indicated that information contained in the book is non-canonical.
