Twi’lek
” Twi’leks (pronounced /’twilÉ›k/) were an omnivorous humanoid species originating from the planet Ryloth.
Their distinctive features included colorful skin, which varied in pigment from individual to individual, and a pair of shapely prehensile tentacles that grew from the base of their skulls.
The beauty of female Twi’leks was well known throughout the galaxy, and as a result many young Twi’leks were sold into slavery, becoming dancers. “
