Rakririan The Rakririans were sentient arthropods indigenous to the planet Rakrir . The sentients were distinctive in appearance , with five pairs of limbs and stalk - mounted eyes . They rarely left their homeworld , finding the wider galaxy too unrefined for their sophisticated tastes . Notable Rakririans that bucked that trend were the athlete Mogoyu , the fencer of stolen goods Endrigorn , and the exotic pet store owner Sabodor . Biology and appearance . Rakririans were an insectoid , arthropod species with tubular bodies , divided into many segments . Adult bodies ranged in length from 1 . 8 to 3 . 6 meters long , with five sets of limbs spaced along their central body segment . While they typically stood upright on the last two sets of limbs , they were able to run on all five sets if necessary . Atop their body was a pair of eyestalks that moved incessantly . They had a tiny mouth and notable olfactory cluster . A cantilevered vocal organ was located in the middle of their midsection . Rakririans had three genders : males , females and facilitator drones . Society and culture . The Rakririan homeworld was the planet Rakrir — sometimes alternatively known as Ballikite — which was located in the Kwymar sector of the Outer Rim Territories . Rakririans developed into highly refined and cultured beings , seen by some as excessively finicky and meticulous . As a result of that , few ever left their homeworld , failing to find sufficiently sophisticated locations in the wider galaxy . Those that did , tended to either be extremely wealthy , or work for the extremely wealthy in service industries . Rakririans did not wear any clothes , although some wore bracelets for personal ornamentation . Non - Rakririan found it difficult to read their body language , although certain movements did convey their frame of mind . For instance , slow opening and closing of their mandibles could mean either that they were in a receptive frame of mind , or , alternatively , that they were preparing to defend themselves . Although they could speak Galactic Basic Standard , it was often with a strong buzzing accent that some found difficult to understand . Rakririans in the galaxy . While few Rakririans ventured off their homeworld , there were a few notable exceptions . A famous Rakririan athlete was Mogoyu , who finished second — in a holocamera finish — in the " decaped - plus " category of the event held on Teyr in 22 BBY . A few years later , Endrigorn , a Rakririan facilitator drone , worked as a fence in the lower levels of Coruscant . There , it dealt primarily in stolen light sculptures , holo - art , and precious gems . It bought a hypergem off Kaird , a Black Sun Vigo , who hoped Endrigorn would pass it on to his rival Xizor . Another well - known Rakririan who left his homeworld was Sabodor , who set up Sabodor ' s , an exotic pet shop on Etti IV . One of the numerous pet shops that catered to the whims of Etti ' s wealthy , Sabodor ' s was considered the best . There , he provided the wealthy with unique pets to flaunt their wealth . Sabodor once sold a dinko to Han Solo , who gave it to Ploovo Two - For - One as a " gift . " A common Rakririan export to the galaxy was their Burnout Sauce . Extremely spicy , most sentients used it only in trace quantities to avoid potential side effects , such as burns to the mouth and throat . The Jedi Knight Plo Koon was known to use Burnout Sauce . Behind the scenes . Brian Daley created Rakririans for his novel , " Han Solo at Stars ' End " , published April 1979 . They were later included in the " Han Solo and the Corporate Sector Sourcebook " . While both these sources established the Rakririan homeworld as Rakrir , " Alien Encounters " later claimed it was Ballikite . Rakririans have subsequently appeared in " HoloNet News Vol . 531 52 " and " " .
