Aar'aa Species data created by Wikia user Droidscotty (Converted from its Aliens Stats counterpart).
The Aar'aa are a Species of color-changing aliens from the planet Aar who have come to be known as "Skinchangers." They are made famous around the galaxy due to the nature of their color-changin skin; given enough time, an Aar'aa can change his skin tone to exactly match the backdrop against which they are set. The Aar'aa are reptiles who often become sluggish in extremely cold temperatures; however, their unique ability to avoid detection makes them highly prized in fields where stealth is called for.
Aar'aa Characteristics[]
Personality: Aar'aa, like most reptilian Species, have a somewhat different mindset than that of their warmblooded companions. They are sometimes aloof and other times threatening, moving between moods quickly especially when there is a drastic change in temperature. Many are very confident to the point of arrogance, as over the years they have realized the extent of their usefulness in the galaxy and have, in turn, made themselves think that they are more highly prized than they are. In addition to their arrogance and quick tempers, the Aar'aa are a very secretive lot, perhaps a throwback to the evolutionary changes that caused them to be such notorious hiders in the first place.
Physical Description: Aar'aa are tall, reptilian humanoids with pebbly, scaly skin covering most of their bodies. From their head all the way down their backs is a crest of skin, which bends and folds slightly as their moods shift. Aar'aa have clawed hands and feet, and thick brows that hang over their small, glowing eyes. Their skin has a natural pigment which alters itself over time to blend them into the background, which was used in the creation of Mimetic Armor.
Age Groups: Aar'aa age at the following stages:
| CHILD | YOUNG ADULT | ADULT | MIDDLE AGE | OLD | VENERABLE |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-11 Years | 12-14 Years | 15-34 Years | 35-49 Years | 50-59 Years | 60+ Years |
Homeworld: Aar, a rocky world in the Nijune Sector of The Outer Rim Territories.
Languages: Aar'aa speak their native tongue of Aarese. Basic is difficult for them, but they can manage a highly-accented version of it similar in sound to the accented Basic spoken by Trandoshans.
Example Names: Aar'aa uniquely lack any sort of formal naming.
Adventurers: Aar'aa can often be found offworld in a variety of pursuits, though these usually involve infiltration. Many Aar'aa are employed on Ylesia for The Hutt Kajidics, their unique ability to avoid detection making them highly prized for the underworld dealings of the Hutts. The Aar'aa are many times employed as assassins, bounty hunters, bodyguards, thieves, and more.
