Agbui

The Agbui, nicknamed Scratchlings, were a sentient species that resided within the Unknown Regions. Their members possessed a form ability of telepathy, able to read a being's emotions by touch. They had faces of dark red and off-white folds, with black eyes and lipless slits for mouths. The Agbui Haplif was a servant of the Grysk "Jixtus" who was skilled in reading cultures and societies. Under orders from Jixtus, Haplif attempted to manipulate the Chiss Ascendancy into a civil war, and a number of Agbui assisted in the scheme.

By the near-completion of the first Death Star, the Agbui were a client species of the Grysk Hegemony and helped their overlords prepare to invade the Galactic Empire. At that time, they became known to the Chiss and humans by the exonym "Scratchlings" because of the scratchy sound of their voices.
