Sullustan

From SpraticNet Wiki

Sullustans are affable, gregarious creatures known for their jowled faces and chattering language. They are mouse-eared humanoids with large, round eyes. After the age of 30 standard years, most Sullustans begin to experience corneal defects, and have to be fitted with special visors. They hail from the planet Sullust, a world allied with the Rebellion during the Galactic Civil War. Planet Sullust is a barren, volcanic world smothered by a heavy toxic cloud. Sullustans thrive in tunnels deep beneath the planet surface where they have constructed highly advanced, startlingly beautiful cities. Their ingenuity and adaptability allowed them to created huge underground cities, and Sullustans became known as some of the galaxy's best civil engineers.

The underground caverns teem with small life-forms that the Sullustans hunt for sources of food and clothing. Wealthy sightseers from halfway across the galaxy tour the hot-springs of Sullust and enjoy exotic delicacies such as "drutash grubs" (which are best served with omaton sauce). Their underground cities are also popular among traders who visit the cobbled streets and the wide variety of shops.

Evolving in a network of dark, mazelike warrens imbued the species with an unfailing sense of direction. Once a Sullustan has traveled a path, the way is never forgotten. This innate skill even extends to hyperspace, making Sullustans prized as star navigators and explorers.

During the Galactic Civil War, the Sullustans were oppressed by the massive SoroSuub Corporation. SoroSuub, one of the galaxy's largest manufacturing conglomerates, is based on Sullust and employs half of the population in its mining, production and packaging departments. The company makes hundreds of products, from injecto-kit shoes and battle armor to the XP-38 landspeeder. SoroSuub is an ardent supporter of the Galactic Empire, and has taken great pains to ensure that its legion of Sullustan workers never breathes a word of dissent and even disbanded the Sullustan Council. They now rule the planet, enforcing curfews and loyalty among the populace, and thrusting the Sullustans into a cheerless existence. Even so, many Sullustans have taken issue with this policy, and have shared their loyalty with the Rebel Alliance...

A wave of rebellion swept through the planet's inhabitants just before the Battle of Endor. It was then allowed to be the stop-over site for the massing Rebel fleet prior to the destruction of the second Death Star.

Sullustan characters tend to be hardy and active, with well-developed willpower.
