Ho'Din head tresses resembled wuppa flowers in bloom.
The wuppa was a species of plant that grew on Moltok,[1] a rainforest-covered planet that was located in the Atrivis sector of the Outer Rim Territories.[2] When in full bloom, the wuppa had bright flowers of red and violet. These flowers were similar in appearance to the head tresses of the sentient Ho'Din species, such that the reptilian species resembled giant wuppa plants.[1] In addition to its blooms, the wuppa took the form of tall grasses. Slender Ho'Din such as the smuggler Par'tah often resembled swaying wuppa grass.[3]
Behind the scenes
The wuppa plant was created by Troy Denning for the first edition of the Galaxy Guide 4: Alien Races, published by West End Games in 1989. In addition to a repeat mention in the second edition of that book, it was later again mentioned in the Heir to the Empire Sourcebook, written by Bill Slavicsek and published in 1992, and the compilation book The Thrawn Trilogy Sourcebook, published in 1996.
