Moss

"Someone really liked bugs, I guess. I wonder how they'd feel if they knew their art had ended up as a mound of moss."

―Zak Arranda, describing a statue in the Sikadian Garden

Mosses were a type of soft, slippery plant.

Moss could cover virtually any surface, growing everywhere from city streets to walls,, from rocks to trees, and from forests to spacecraft. It was even known to cover the thoraxes of the Kolosolok race of Killiks. While moss primarily grew in the wild, especially in humid air, it had a variety of uses. The Alderaanian Ob Khaddor produced a moss painting known as Killik Twilight, and some species could eat moss as a last-resort source of sustenance.
