Lobel were slow-moving quadrupeds that naturally produced powerful magnetic fields that impeded the operation of nearby navigation devices and (reportedly) gave pilots headaches. Lobels were one of the few species that was actually indigenous to the toxic planet Quesh though they were also found in small pockets across the galaxy. As a result, their gills were capable of protecting them from the many hazardous liquids found on the planet. Another adaptation to survive in toxic environments was the lobel's four stomachs. These had a redundancy function where if one stomach was damaged, others could be used for digesting in its stead. Additionally, the Lobel's slow metabolism helped it survive in times of food scarcity.
