Summary
|
The Epicanthix were a warrior species of Near-Humans native to the Outer Rim world of Panatha, within the Pacanth Reach. Physically, Epicanthix were generally human in appearance, possessing faces that were somewhat longer than usual, with narrow eyes, black hair, and lithe builds with powerful musculature that tended to be willowy and graceful due to a cultural focus on physical training and combat readiness.Due to their similarities with "baseline" humans, some suggested that the Epicanthix evolved from a forgotten colonization effort many millennia ago. Regardless of possible ancestry, however, Epicanthix had enough minute differences to be recognized on sight as near-human, and many sentients regarded them as an entirely separate race.Some Epicanthix possessed a natural unconscious talent to shield their minds from Force-assisted mental tricks, influence, domination, and mind reading, with the talent being widespread enough that the Minister of Intelligence during the time of the Sith Empire sought out the Epicanthix for use as spies, as was the case with Ula Vii. This ability, similar to that of Hutts and Toydarians, was powerful enough to prevent Darth Chratis, a Sith powerful enough to read the minds of other Sith against their will, from ascertaining the true intentions of an honest non-forceful Imperial Agent.
