Species

Return to Species or Untested Species

The Star Wars galaxy contains a bewildering variety of Species, each with its own unique outlook and civilization. Although Humans dominate the known galaxy, there are many intelligent alien species that can be encountered wherever you travel.

Humans live among The Core Worlds, throughout The Mid Rim, and even on the worlds of The Outer Rim Territories. Most of the alien Species have their own homeworld and colonies, but individuals can be found anywhere, thanks to the prevalence of Hyperspace travel. The promise of profit and power often lure members of all Species to the same areas, including spaceports and metropolitan cities.

Sometimes it's easy to believe that all Rodians are outlaws or all Wookiees are short-tempered, but the truth is that every member of every Species is unique. Depending on the era in which your campaign is set, nonhuman species have different advantages or disadvantages, as explained in each Species' individual page.
