Legend

this alien race is native to the harsh, volcanic planet Kuras III. The Aganof were a species of large, plant-like beings which lacked true sexes. They had a number of small appendages that were used for locomotion, and another set of appendages for sensory input. A row of heat-dissipating flaps and olfactory stalks lined their dorsal region, with small mouths below each flap used to capture small creatures that were attracted to the flaps. Each end of their bodies ends in a jointed limb which is tipped with a sharp claw. They lived in the caves of Kuras III, and survived without the senses of sight and hearing. These beings spent much of their free time engaged in philosophical debates and intellectual arguments, using vibrations and scents to relay their ideas. They had little concept of an alien species, and knew nothing of the Galactic Civil War.
