Biology and appearance[]
Crolutes werealiens ofaquatic origin[5] from theMid Rimplanet ofCrul.[6] Hulking[7] and gargantuan,[8] They had buoyant, gelatinous body tissue. When removed from their saltwater surroundings, Crolutes' bodies sagged unsettlingly on their frames, giving them the appearance of a meltedblobfish.[5] They had flipper-like feet,[4] much like theMon Calamari.[9] They could hold their breath forhours at a time.[6]
History[]
Theancestors of the Crolute species lived in the warm, shallowseas of Crul, and first came ashore during the planet's summers, when bulls fought for mates and guarded breeding colonies on the beaches. The species underwent millions ofyears of evolution, adapting to life on land despite still loving the water, and eventually evolved into Crolutes who kept a clan-based society run by bulls and alpha-cows.[6]
Society and culture[]
Crolutes lived in the saltwater[5] oceans of their homeworld,[4] and were surprisingly graceful and agile swimmers. They adapted to life on land, forming a clan-based society and creating breeding colonies on the beaches where bulls fought for mates. Alpha-bulls kept harems of junior spouses and concubines, and were constantly challenged by younger bulls and cows. Crolutes were naturally aggressive and ruthless, but actual violence was limited as disputes were typically settled with ritualized displays of intimidation and dominance.[6]
Clan compounds were constructed around lagoons, and the species retained a love of the water. Alpha bulls and cows lived in mansions with deep, lavishly-decorated immersion tanks, which were favored sites for diplomatic and trade negotiations. Clan leaders debated while floating on their backs and gorging on banquets ofgastropods and fermentedkelp-ichor.[6]
Crolutes in the galaxy[]
Most Crolutes never traveled beyond their home planet and its colony-moons.[2] One exception wasUnkar Plutt, who was thejunk boss ofJakku.[7]
