Twi'leks are head-tailed alien humanoids from the planetRyloth . Sometimes, the female Twi'leks serve theHutts as dancers.
Oola, Bib Fortuna,Aayla Secura ,Cham Syndulla , andHera Syndulla are notable Twi'leks.
During the age of the Old Republic, Ryloth and the Twi'leks were part of theGalactic Republic , and were represented by senator Orn Free Taa. However, when theGalactic Empire rose to power, Ryloth's people rebelled.Palpatine andDarth Vader personally snuffed out this insurrection when they attacked the planet with a garrison. Ryloth's people were subsequently enslaved. Twi'leks would later join theNew Republic when theRebel Alliance defeated the Empire at the Battle ofEndor .
Background [ ] Powers and Abilities [ ] Abilities [ ] High-Intellect: This species is granted more brain capacity than other humanoids as their head tails allow for more brain space, as a consequence, they are highly intelligent.Physical appearance [ ] Twi'leks have varying humanoid sizes, with two thick tentacles protruding from the back of their heads down their backs. On the side of their heads with females and some males are conical horns that are rudimentary and would grow into a second pair of head tails to store fat on more corpulent specimens.
Many males are seen with humanoid ears in the place of those horns, sometimes found under them, denoting certain subspecies and crossbreeds. The males also have bumps above their eyes with next to no facial hair while females tend to have eyebrows and lashes.
The species is separated into two main races. Rutian (blue, green, yellow, pink, aqua, white, purple coloration) and Leethan (red, orange).
