Legend

this creature, native to the planet Noe'ha'on, was a six-legged slug which lived in swamps. These large, pinkish creatures multiplied rapidly, as the females lay hundreds of eggs each mating period. K'lor'slugs preferred to live in dark, damp caves and burrows, but could swim quite well and were adaptable to many different environments. They were generally harmless to most beings, but a swarm of k'lor'slugs could bring down a human and consume it in short order. The k'lor'slug used a mild toxic, exuded through its bite, to bring down its prey. Many k'lor'slugs found their way off Noe'ha'on by burrowing into the cargo holds of starships, feeding on the foodstuffs of the cargo or the ship's own stores. Away from their native planet, k'lor'slugs lived in garbage heaps and refuse piles, and were regarded as symbols of gluttony and decay. There was a hologram of a k'lor'slug on Chewie's holotable aboard the Millennium Falcon.
