"Item obtained following opportunistic beatdown by Prowling Thug 36 (Esoomian brawler Bumblethunk)."
―Twirm writes about Bumblethunk in the Smuggler's Guide[1]

Esoomians were a sentient species that existed in the galaxy.[1]

Biology and appearance[]

This species was distinguished by their green skin, red eyes, facial tendrils, and large build, towering over most other sentients.[2]

Species in the galaxy[]

Sometime after 229 BBY,[3] a member of this species served as a member of the Nihil.[2] The brawler Bumblethunk was an Esoomian who served the criminal Razzi Syndicate as "Prowling Thug 36."[1] By 10 BBY,[4] Bumblethunk had beatdown the gambler Landonis Calrissian after Calrissian took a swing at the Esoomian in order to impress a Trianii debutante. Submister Twirm of the Razzi Syndicate later recorded this event in the book that would become known as the Smuggler's Guide.[1]

Behind the scenes[]
