Kibnon/Legends

The Kibnon were a green insectoid sentient species distantly related to the Verpine. With six limbs and two bulbous eyes on stalks, they had an exotic appearance to many species. During the Galactic Civil War, the Kibnon Sinthia Pulchatt operated as a spice merchant on Tatooine, while other Kibnon were found on the planets Tresidiss and Ando.
==Biology and appearance==
The Kibnon were an insectoid sentient species that were distant relatives of the Verpine. They had a slender thorax and abdomen, and four legs, which provided stability. In addition to these limbs, the Kibnon also had two arms, which were typically held close to their bodies. They were green in coloration, and could grow to a height of 2.8 meters, as demonstrated by the Kibnon Sinthia Pulchatt.
The Kibnon had roughly triangular heads, with two bulbous, stalk-mounted eyes projecting from the top surface. A thin antenna grew from each side of their heads, which could point either up or down.Galaxy Guide 11: Criminal Organizations Two small mandibles grew by their mouths. The combination of these features made the Kibnon appear exotic to many other species.

She was a regular at Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina, often looking for new spice customers.
During this period, another Kibnon visited Tresidiss, an Outer Rim planet notorious for its Herglic-operated gambling halls and casinos. This Kibnon was accompanied by a diminutive stalk-eyed alien. Kibnon were also among the numerous species—including Wookiees, Givins, and Devaronians—that Doctor Cornelius Evazan experimented on while on the planet Ando. Evazan sought to discover a way to become immortal using a mind-transference machine, but his experiments were thwarted when one of his patients attempted to assassinate him using a thermal detonator.
