ticularly rapid digestive system, believed to be a by-product the Durable talent. a
of the competitive nature of their homeworld. The ability
to rapidly convert food into energy is tightly linked to the
species' characteristic quickness. Aleena are omnivores who
typically prefer very spicy cuisine. but there is no clear physi-
ological basis for this preference. Visitors to their homes and
world are often surprised by the food's intensity.
Society: Aleena are fiercely loyal to their families. In their
native cultures. extended families dwell together. often shar-
ing interlinked rooms within a larger structure. All Aleena
within a village typically share blood ties.
This strong connection continues when they travel beyond
their worlds of origin. It is rare for an Aleena to travel alone.
Instead. family members commonly travel together. In cases
where a single Aleena travels as a performer, relatives join
the performer as an entourage. They rejoice in their kin's
success and offer comfort at times of disappointment.
Homeworld: Aleen Minor is an Inner Rim world and the
species' planet of origin. It held membership in the Galac-
tic Senate for rn1llennia. The world's climate is unrelentingly
harsh. a11d the planet is home to such vicious predators as

BARDOTTAN ELECTROLANCE
GUNGAN ELECTROPOLE
Gungan herders traditionally use electropoles to guide and
guard their shaaks. Though it is essentially a peasant weap-
on, familiarity led the Gungan militia members to incorpo-
rate it into their military traditions. While herders typically
used the weapon while afoot, militias often use electropoles
while mounted upon kaadu. Its relatively low weight makes
it well suited for use in one hand while controlling a mount
with the other. Because electropoles were designed for con-
trolling cattle as well as scaring off predators, the weapons
incorporate both stun and deadly settings. The electronic
components of an electropole are watertight, so they can be
