Halaisi

The Halaisi were a sentient species in the galaxy. Humanoid in shape with a build similar to that of humans, they had golden skin and eyes, and four limbs with five-fingered hands. Their eyelids and lips could be blue, and they could have black eyebrows. It was possible for Halaisi to be Force-sensitive.
Rig Nema, a Halaisi from Halais, was a member of the Jedi Order and a doctor during the final years of the Republic Era. She examined Grand Master Yoda in 19 BBY after other members of the Jedi High Council were concerned about his health.
==Behind the scenes==
Halaisi first appeared in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars sixth-season episode "Voices"—which premiered on March 1, 2014, in Germany and on March 7 on Netflix in North America—with the character of Rig Nema. The species was first identified in the 2021 reference book Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Character Encyclopedia - Join the Battle!, written by Jason Fry. Nema's physical appearance was based on an early concept design for Jedi Master Mace Windu drawn by Iain McCaig during the pre-production of Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace. As actor Samuel L. Jackson had not yet been cast, McCaig based his design on Industrial Light & Magic modeler Steve Aplin.The Art of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace
