Hampa



"Ow! My head is killing me!" "Get it off! Get it off!"

- Two ecorbs cry after hampas sprout on their heads

A hampa was an irremovable shell-like protuberance in ecorbs' heads sprouted from the excessive ingestion of a particular orange and blue flower species. It was very painful for the wearer and ecorbs were known to be miserable as a consequence of growing hampas.

Behind the scenes
Hampas were featured in Monsters and Aliens from George Lucas, a book published in 1993. Lucasfilm employee Leland Chee, who maintains the Holocron continuity database, has indicated that information contained in the book is non-canonical.
