Legend

this race of sentients was distantly related to the Hutts, although they had a very different physiology. Native to Nal Hutta, the t'landa Til race resembled the Berrite race, having a stout body supported by four thick legs. However, the t'landa Til were much larger than Berrites, standing about two meters tall at the shoulder. Their heads were attached to their bodies by a short, humped neck, and their legs ended with huge, padded feet. Their skin was thick and oily, and hung from their huge bodies in heavy folds and wrinkles. The t'landa Til also had two thin arms which ended in four delicate fingers, and speciallized glands at their elbows exuded an odorous oil which protected their skin. Their bodies ended in thin, whiplike tails that they carried curled atop their backs. They enjoyed keeping their skin moist by immersing themselves in mudpits, alleviating the burden of carrying their immense bulk on their short legs. They also slept in specially-designed hammocks that support them without the need for a bed. t'landa Tils had two separate hearts and three separate stomachs.
