The Yrashu are very tall, green, bald, primitives who dwell in Baskarn's lethal jungles. Despite their bold and brutish shape, the Yrashu are - with very few exceptions - a very gentle species, at one with their jungle environment. The Yrashu speak a strange language that mostly consists of "mm" and "schwa" sounds.
The jungles of Baskarn are a very rigorous environment that can overcome and kill the unwary within moments. The Yrashu are well-adapted to their environment and are perfectly safe in it. Here, despite their low levels of technology, they are masters.
The Yrashu are sensitive to the Force and as a result have a very open and loving disposition to all things. Taking a life is the worst thing one can do and Yrashu do not kill unless the need is very great. However, some of the Yrashu, called "The Low," are tainted by the dark side of the Force. They are tolerated but looked down upon as delinquents and persons of low character. It is the only class distinction the Yrasu make.
They have not been integrated into galactic society, and have not yet made contact with the Empire. Yrashu will instinctively fight against the Empire because they can sense the Empire's ties to the dark side of the Force. They will also oppose stormtroopers or other beings dressed in white armor, because white is a color which symbolizes disease and death to the superstitious Yrashu. |
