Veknoid

The Veknoid species is a humanoid alien race that originally comes from the Star Wars universe. They are characterized by their distinctive features, which include long snouts, webbed feet and hands, as well as their typically green skin. Most Veknoids have six limbs, with two arms and four legs, enabling them to be unusually adept swimmers. They are also known for their ability to hold their breath for extended periods, which allows them to reside primarily in aquatic and semi-aquatic environments.

One of the most well-known Veknoids is Teemto Pagalies, who competed as a podracer in the Boonta Eve Classic, which featured in "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace." Known for their prowess in mechanics, Veknoids like Pagalies often design and build their own podracers. Despite their prevalence in the background of the Star Wars Universe, the Veknoids are yet to play a leading role in the main saga. Nevertheless, their contribution to the rich tapestry of alien races in Star Wars adds depth and realism to the franchise's world-building.
