- "Any idea whether those alien species are hostile toward strangers?"
"Probably. Most alien species are. Shall we go?" - ―Gilad Pellaeon and Thrawn, landing on Wayland
The Psadan were one of the indigenous races of the planet Wayland.[1] They were covered with lumpy plates that made them resemble walking, talking rocks, Scientists believe they were evolved from hard-shelled mammals. They were a warlike species and often fought the neighboring Myneyrsh. They were one of the races that the cloned and insane Jedi master Joruus C'baoth kept under his rule at the foot of Mount Tantiss.
When the Yuuzhan Vong invaded, the Psadan and Myneyrsh tried to fight back and were mostly exterminated, the rest fleeing into jungles.
Psadans in the galaxy[]
In 27 BBY,[4] the Coruscant cantina known as the Twirling Twi'lek was visited by a Psadan male. He watched one of the establishment's table dancers while sitting alongside a Gotal and a Ho'Din. This visit to the cantina was interrupted when a Whiphid attacked and was killed by Jango Fett, an infamous bounty hunter.[5]
During the Clone Wars, Looie, a Psadan, operated the redemption center of The Rig, the space station headquarters of the Crimson Nova chapter of the Bounty Hunters' Guild.[6]
