TATOOINE

Here are some of the inhabitants of the planet Tatooine...


Tusken Raiders (aka Sand People)

The Tusken Raiders are fearsome desert savages who live in the Jundland Wastes of Tatooine. They are extremely territorial and will attack without provocation.

These nomads are clad in tattered robes from head to toe. They carry deadly bladed clubs known as gaderffii. The females are recognizable because of their elaborate jewel-encrusted masks. Tusken children wear simple cloaks.

Tusken Raider have managed to domesticate Bantha's. Whom they use for transportation.

Bantha

Bantha's are very large furry animals with bright eyes. The males are distiguishable by their long spiraling horns.

On the desert world of Tatooine, Bantha's are used as transportation for the savage Tusken Raiders. As well as beasts of burden by the Tatooine Moisture Farmers.

Sarlacc

The Sarlacc is a huge immobile beast. It lives underneath the desert sands in Tatooine's Dune Sea, at the base of the Great Pit of Carkoon. The Sarlacc is almost completely concealed, with only its mouth and tentacles extending from the surface.

Due to its isolation, the Sarlacc rarely feeds. It relys mostly on animals that are unfortunate enough to stumble into the pit. According to rumor, the Sarlacc is able to keep its victims alive for thousands of years, while it slowly digests them. The victim is kept alive and conscious.

The Sarlacc was an amusement to Jabba the Hutt, who would eliminate his enemies by feeding them to the Sarlacc. Shortly after Return of the Jedi, the Sarlacc was killed by Boba Fett (who is seen falling into the Sarlacc Pit during the sail barge scene).
