Legend

this avian race, first encountered by the Old Republic some 7,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, was native to the planet Mrlsst. They are short in stature, and walk upright. They have large, black eyes, blunt noses, and beautifully-colored feathers. However, they are not born with coloration to their feathers. Babies are born with dusky-brown plumage which developed color with age. They pride themselves on their plumage, and bright, full plumage is often regarded as idyllic. They are also a tehnologically advanced race, as demonstrated in the creation of the Phantom cloaking device. However, this advance also brought out the Mrlssti deviousness. They showed themselves to be manipulative and conniving in their dealing with Wedge Antilles and Rogue Squadron a few years after the Battle of Endor. Note that this species is referred to as Mrlssti in Alien Encounters.
