Lurmen Lurmen were a diminutive , pacifistic species from the Outer Rim planet Mygeeto . At least one settlement of Lurmen was present on the planet Maridun at the time of the Clone Wars . Biology and appearance . Lurmen were a sentient , yellow - eye d species that stood about one meter tall on average . Lurmen had two arms and legs with five digits on each hand and foot ; each Lurmen also had a tail . Their bodies were entirely covered in brown or gray fur , over which they wore clothes . Some members of the species , such as Wag Too , had the ability to roll into a ball to travel at greater speeds . The Lurmen colonists on Maridun consumed raw Jogan fruit for nutrition . Society and culture . Lurmen communicated using spoken language and were able to speak Galactic Basic . Most Lurmen were pacifistic , such as the Lurmen colony that settled on the uncharted world of Maridun . Tee Watt Kaa , the leader of this colony , believed in expressing non - violence and non - aggressive solutions . The colonists of Maridun led peaceful lives , harvesting giant seedpods to use for shelter and nourishment . History . Emigration to Maridun . During the Clone Wars , a group of Lurmen led by Tee Watt Kaa landed on Maridun , an uncharted world , in order to avoid the violence and bloodshed . Further into the war , Jedi General s Aayla Secura and Anakin Skywalker , as well as Skywalker ' s Padawan , Ahsoka Tano , crash - landed on the planet after their ship was damaged by Separatist forces . Skywalker was badly injured from the wreck , and the group had come under attack by mastiff phalone s , so Tano and Secura set off in search of help . Upon coming across the Lurmen village , they requested aid , but Tee Watt Kaa refused to get his people involved , demanding that the Jedi leave . Tano , desperate for her master ' s survival , pleaded with Kaa to help Skywalker . Complying to Tano , Kaa sent his son , Wag Too , to heal Skywalker . Kaa , however , demanded that a Jedi stay behind to ensure that Wag Too would not be taken . Agreeing , Secura remained with the Lurmen . When Tano and Wag Too returned to the camp , they found it was under attack by two mastiff phalones . Wag Too , not wanting to harm the animals , tied the creatures up and stopped Tano from killing them . Taking Skywalker to the Lurmen camp , Wag Too began his healing process . Separatist occupation . Soon after the arrival of the Jedi , Separatist general Lok Durd came to the planet and announced the Separatists ' occupation . The Lurmen hid the Jedi and their Republic allies , refusing to fight against the Separatists . The Jedi left the village , and Wag Too , against his father ' s wishes , assigned a Lurmen scout , Tub , to track them and make sure they got off - world . Durd , who saw the Lurmen ' s extreme pacifism , decided to use the Lurmen village as a testing grounds for his new experimental weapon . The Republic forces , having witnessed Durd ' s initial demonstration , warned Kaa of the upcoming onslaught , but the elder refused to use violence , saying he would rather die . As a last resort , the Jedi used shield generators to protect the village , sparing it from the weapon . In response , the Separatist general ordered his army of battle droid s to attack , forcing the Jedi to defend the unmoved Lurmen . The droids eventually overwhelmed the Jedi , compelling Wag Too to rally the Lurmen who didn ' t truly believe in absolute pacifism . The Lurmen attacked and tied up the droids , leaving them to the Republic forces . The remaining droids left the village , and the Lurmen , led by Kaa , thanked the Jedi . End of the war . Less than three years after Tee Watt Kaa ' s tribe fled to Maridun , the Clone Wars had spread to their homeworld , Mygeeto ; in the final days of the war , a battle was fought on its frigid terrain . Lurmen in the galaxy . Lurmen were native to Mygeeto , and the tribe present on Maridun avoided contact with the galactic community . Generally , Lurmen were thought to be unintelligent ; however , during the Separatist occupation of Maridun , Lok Durd admitted that the Lurmen were smarter than they appeared . Seventeen years later , during the Age of the Empire , Jessa Spanjaf , a data - security specialist on Lothal , claimed that a programmer ' s tasks were menial enough for even a half - blind Lurmen to manage . Behind the scenes . The Lurmen species first appeared in " Jedi Crash , " the thirteenth episode of " " . The species was originally set to appear in but was ultimately cut during production .
