Half Twi'leks

Half-Twi'leks are of human stock, and have features of both the Twi'lek and human parents. Like Twi'leks they have the instantly recognizable Lekku, or Head-tails, which hang from the base of their skull, which enable them to communicate secretly. Half-Twi'leks tend to be tall, although not as tall as Twi'leks, and of average human build. Their skin tends to be a pale grey or blue-grey, and their eyes are usually brown or green. While Twi'leks are usually hairless, its not uncommon for a Half-Twi'lek to have a hairy torso. Half-Twi'leks vary greatly in personality, and this is attributed to their human parentage.

'Pureblood' Twi'leks despise Half-Twi'leks with a passion and will try to avoid them if at all possible. This racial hatred is based on their 'Impurity' and because many Half-Twi'leks act like humans.

Although not great in numbers Half-Twi'leks are found throughout the Galaxy doing all manner of jobs.

Special Abilities:

Head-Tails: Like Twi'leks, Half-Twi'leks can use their head-tails to communicate in secret, even if the room is full of others. The complex movement of the tails is, in a sense, a "secret" language that all Twi'leks and Half-Twi'leks are fluent in.

Story Factors:

'Pureblood' Twi'leks despise and persecute Half-Twi'leks and find their presence intolerable. As a result Half-Twi'leks are barred from the Twi'lek homeworld, Ryloth, and are ignored at best or are assaulted at worst.
