Star Wars Universe Roleplaying Game

Dug

Dugs are aggressive, muscular beings known for their unique inverted physiology — walking with their arms and manipulating tools with their dexterous feet. Native to the high-gravity world of Malastare, Dugs compensate for their small size with tenacity, fierce reflexes, and a short temper. Despite their combative nature, some Dugs have gained fame as podracers, mercenaries, or gladiators. Dugs are small and wiry, with elongated limbs, tough leathery skin, and wide muzzles. They move using their powerful arms as legs, keeping their actual legs — ending in highly nimble toes — free for manipulation and combat. Their unusual gait gives them an unpredictable advantage. Dugs are notoriously irritable, outspoken, and prideful. Their culture prizes toughness and cunning, often leading to brash or confrontational behavior. They rarely back down from a fight and are quick to insult perceived weakness. Despite this, they are fiercely loyal to those who earn their respect.
