Toydarian/Legends

"I'm a Toydarian. Mind tricks don't work on me, only money."

- Watto

The Toydarians were a race of avian beings from Toydaria. They were strong-willed, resistant to Jedi mind tricks, and had a body odor similar to sweetspice. Toydarians were supposedly distant relations of the Hutts due to their homeworld's proximity to Nal Hutta as well as their similar resistance to the mind trick.

Biology and appearance


Toydarians had stubbly trunks on their faces which rested above short tusks. A Toydarian's thin legs ended in webbed, three-toed feet. They had three fingers on their hands, but their primary mode of transportation was their use of the wings on their upper back. Their wings could beat as fast as ten times a second, burning up large amounts of energy. In order to fuel this hyperactive metabolism, Toydarians would eat concentrated foods and egg-seeds. Their bellies were also filled with a buoyant gas which helped them stay afloat, thus creating the appearance of a pot belly. Despite appearing pudgy, Toydarians were actually one of the lightest races in the galaxy because their body tissue was spongy and gas-filled.

Their skin was usually gray or blue although red and purple variants were common among females. The males of the species usually showed sparse whiskers.

Society and culture
Toydarian government was a sovereign feudal system with one ruling king and many vassals. These vassals vied for power under the king's rule. The king made sure to keep his vassals happy and to have their allegiance, but would occasionally encourage infighting to reveal the true character of the vassals and weed out treachery.
