Woostoids inhabit the planet Woostri. In the days of the Old Republic, they were often selected to maintain records for Republic databases, and are still noted for their record-keeping and data-management abilities. Woostoids are higly knowledgeable in the field of computer design and programming, and have remarkably efficient analytical minds.
Since the Woostoids are so adept at computer technology, a substantial portion of Woostri is computer-controlled, which has helped weed out a number of tasks that the Woostoids felt could be automated. Therefore, they have a large amount of free time and a substantial portion of their economy is geared toward recreation.
Woostoids are of average height (by human standards), but are extremely slender. They have reddish-orange skin and flowing red hair. They have bulbous, pupil-less eyes that rarely blink. Traditionally, they wear long, flowing robes of bright, reflective cloth.
Woostoids are a peacful species, and the concept of warfare and fighting is extremely disconcerting to them. Woostoids tend to think about situations in a vey orderly manner, trying to find the logical ties between events. When presented with facts that seemingly have no logical pattern, they become very confused and disoriented. They find the order of the Empire reassuring, but are distressed by its warlike tendencies. |
