Legend

this creature was once native to the homeworld of the Vagaari race. It was a feral variant of a particularly dangerous predator which was eventually domesticated by the Vagaari. Individual wolvkils were long, low-bodied creatures with long snouts and heavily-clawed paws. The killing of a wolvkil was an act of considerable bravery among the Vagaari, and the elite of Vagaari society often wore a dead wolvkil body over the shoulders as a sign of their position. Bearsh and his companions revealed that their wolvkil stoles were actually alive, when it became apparent that the remains of Outbound Flight were real. Their wolvkils had been wearing blue-and-gold collars, which seemed to be merely decoration. However, at a meeting with the Managing Council of the Outbound Flight Colony, Bearsh and his fellow Vagaari broke these collars off and allowed their wolvkils to return to life. The vicious predators attacked with wild abandon, shaking off blaster bolts with ease as they killed their victims. Their ability to endure pain stemmed from their decentralized nervous system, as well as the distributed physiology of their internal organs.
