Biology and appearance[]
The Bivall were a sentient species of tall, instantly recognizable bipeds with their lanky bodies, large eyes positioned on ocular stalks, crested heads and long fingers, and were native to Protobranch, a planet located in the Core Worlds.[2] Their scaly skin ranged in color from white and red to green or blue.[1] The species' lives revolved around water, but they did not need it to survive, and could settle far from it.[4] Bivall, like other aquatic beings, were immune to the disease malongo pox.[5]
Society and culture[]
The Bivall were renowned for their high intelligence, leading to their spread across the galaxy in various scientific positions.[2] The Bivall homeworld of Protobranch was an agriworld and a major producer of bacta.[6]
History[]
By the time of the High Republic Era, the Bivall had integrated with the rest of the Galaxy.[7] During the late Republic Era, a solar storm occurred on Protobranch, causing the floating cities of the planet to fall to the surface.[6]
Bivall in the galaxy[]
Because of their high levels of intelligence, Bivall could be found in numerous well-to-do positions, such as physicians, political advisors, researchers, and scientists.[1]
During the High Republic Era, Ry Harket was a Bivall female Dean of Student Life at Reena University.[5] Scover Byne, another Bivall female, was the owner of the Byne Guild, which subsequently dissolved after she was arrested.[7] Quin was a Bivall slicer who was a member of the Nihil.[8]
Sionver Boll was a Bivall scientist who worked for the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars. She was later tasked, by Chancellor Palpatine, to study the Zillo Beast on Coruscant.[3]
