Er'Kits were a species of humanoids native to the planet of Er'Kit. They were characterized by their pale bluish-gray skin, and stood slightly taller than an average Human.[3]
The back of their heads were high, so their skulls resembled those of the Aleena and the Vurks.[source?]
One of the most famous of the Er'Kit species was Ody Mandrell, a podracer born on Tatooine who competed in the Boonta Eve Classic in 32 BBY.[1] He also competed on Ord Ibanna, and became a track favorite.[4] He later ended up working for Ulda at the Mos Espa Grand Arena.[5]
Until just prior to the start of the Clone Wars, Er'Kit's senator was Danry Ledwellow. He was arrested on charges of implication in a Thalassian slave ring in 22 BBY.[6]
