Selenome

Legends Linked from 2 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

The Selenome was a marine colony creature akin to a predatory coral reef. Selenomes resembled immense cluster of rocks on the ocean floor, but were in fact a beast with hundreds of tentacles covered in toothed suckers. The tentacles themselves consisted of smaller organisms which cooperated to improve the overall odds of obtaining sustenance. The Selenome was self-regenerating and had no natural predators. Its only natural vulnerability was starvation.

A Selenome located on Vandor-3 was utilized as an exercise opponent for clone trooper training operations during the Clone Wars, nearly killing Alpha-98.
