Neimoidian

Neimoidians are a humanoid species native to the planet Cato Neimoidia. They were known for their close ties with the Trade Federation.
== Description ==
Neimoidians are a near-human species, despite this, they lack noses and have large red eyes. Their skin is a mottled green-grey colour and they have neither hair nor ears. Neimoidians often wear expensive clothing including robes, headdresses and mitres to show their wealth.
Some Neimoidians who are of a lower class than their rulers often look younger, lacking wrinkles in their skin. Most of these Neimoidians worked on ships as crew members and all wore an identical uniform.
== Society and culture ==
Neimoidians often dominated the ranks of the Trade Federation and their culture was mostly tied to it. Most Neimoidians went on to serve the Federation and it became such a key part of Neimoidian society. High-ranking and wealthy Neimoidians wear colourful, expensive and elaborate robes and mitres to show off their riches. However, many worker Neimoidians look almost near-identical. As well as their younger appearance, they all wore a standard grey robe with a black mitre. There were many of these lower-class Neimoidians working for the Trade Federation before and during the Clone Wars. 
Despite being known for their cowardly nature, the Neimoidian Guards were elite soldiers that served as the bodyguards of the Trade Viceroy. Neimoidians were also affiliated with the Separatist Alliance. This is because when the Federation agreed to pledge support to the Separatists, this meant their resources and assets, including the worlds they owned, were given over the Separatists. Following the end of the Clone Wars, Neimoidians largely disappeared from the galactic stage.
