T'landa Til

The t'landa Til are massive, quadrupedal Hutt-like creatures with long, thin, whipping tails. They are related to the Hutt species though, they have four trunk-like legs with huge, padded feet. They also have a tiny pair of arms with delicate hands, each of which boasts four supple fingers. Their faces resemble that of the Hutts except for a long, thick horn above the their snout. Like the Hutts their necks are short, humped, almost nonexistant. They also have thick, oily, leathery skin hanging in creases, wrinkles, and loose folds, especially below the neck, where it almost hangs so loose that it hides the arms when they are folded against the chest.

The t'landa Til also have two hearts and three stomachs. Male t'landa Til emit a frequency resonance that attracts females during mating season. This humming vibration is produced when air flows over the cilia in a male's inflated neck pouch. This vibration stimulates a female's pleasure centers. This ability is also accompanied by the males' low-grade empathic ability, which they use to project pleasant feelings toward females. The average t'landa Til stands about 2-2.5 metres tall.

The t'landa Til are from the planet Varl, which is the home of the Hutt species. The t'landa Til also live in Nal Hutta, the adopted homeworld of the Hutts They are also immune to Force mind tricks. The t'landa Til appear in the Han Solo Trilogy novel - The Paradise Snare where crafty t'landa Til priests at Ylesia start a religious cult, revolving around "the Exultation" - a stimulation of the brain's pleasure centres. In reality, the Ylesian cult was a money-making scheme used to get slaves for the spice mines of Ylesia. Most t'landa Til are also crime lords like the Hutts
