Legend

this reptilian creature, native to the planet Tatooine, resembled a krayt dragon to the inexperienced adventurer. It had a scaly hide, a razor-tipped tail, and a wide mouth filled with razor-sharp teeth, and was a highly territorial creature that viciously protected its hunting grounds. Beyond that, the resemblance to a krayt dragon is minimal. The average raivor measured about four meters in length as an adult, and was very quick and agile in the desert sands. The yellowish coloration of the raivor's scales allowed it to blend into the shifting sands, although a subspecies which livedin the mountains had a darker coloration that didn't blend into the rocky surroundings as well. Raivor hide was valued by the Jawas and the Sand People as a tough material for clothes and tools.
