Ithorian root-source

Ithorian root-source was an organic specimen used in laboratory conditions as a genetic basis for creating hybrids capable of surviving in zero-moisture environments. The resulting organisms were named Ithorian crawlers and were later deployed by the Galactic Empire during a punitive operation on the planet Gholondreine-β.
