Weequay

Weequay are a tough, no-nonsense species forged in the harsh conditions of the desert world Sriluur. Their culture revolves around spiritual resilience, silent loyalty, and physical endurance. While often seen as coarse or intimidating by outsiders, Weequay society is tightly bound by clan loyalty and religious rituals, many of which remain shrouded in mystery. Their stoicism and grit make them ideal candidates for mercenary work, piracy, or any role that demands toughness over diplomacy. Many Weequay are employed as enforcers or bodyguards, and their services are in high demand across the Outer Rim. Despite their quiet nature, they carry the wisdom of deeply rooted cultural traditions, passed on through meditation and sacred rites. Their thick, leathery skin and calm under pressure make them excellent survivors in both urban and battlefield environments.
