Karvathian

Canon Linked from 4 articles

Karvathians were a sentient species from the Karvathia system that could hear high-pitched sounds. They created the music style trusk, which, during the time of the Old Republic, was originally performed in dingy establishments at pitches that only members of the species could hear.

In 3 BBY, a Karvathian trusk septet played at an auction on the planet Cantonica organized by Cli Pastayra of the Wandering Star criminal syndicate. During the auction, Pastayra remarked about the history of Karviathians and the trusk to his droid Fenbolt. The species also shared its name with the Karvathian sequined tarp, one of which was found in 7 ABY on Frander's Bay, a space station orbiting the planet Chandrila.
