Zanibar

The Zanibar were a cannibalistic sentient species native to the planet Xo.
==Characteristics==
The Zanibar were tall and thin sentient humanoids with grayish-blue skin and three-fingered hands. They were bald and had long skull-like faces with small black eyes.
The species occupied at least one village on its homeworld of Xo, where the Zanibar performed a sacrificial ceremony believed to involve a feast of their victims' bodies to give their life forces to the Zanibar gods.
==History==
Prior to the Clone Wars, Zanibar cannibals were involved in an incident in the Corporate Sector which created a lasting enmity between rival businessmen Dominic Raynor and Iaco Stark.
Some Zanibar warriors became bounty hunters or mercenaries, accepting only sentients as payment that they could bring back to Xo and sacrifice, including a group allied with the crime lord Grappa the Hutt under the leadership of Zzzanmxl in 11 ABY.The Essential Chronology dates the events of Crimson Empire II: Council of Blood to 11 ABY. These Zanibar were unwilling to work with the Galactic Empire, instead relying on Grappa's services as a go-between.
==Behind the scenes==
