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

Rhak-skuri, which translated from the ancient Sith as "Dream Singer", were a dark side twisted sub-species of Diplura native to the planet Upekzar. The insectoid rhak-skuri excreted powerful pheromones that induced terrifying hallucinations in mammalian species, and fed not only on flesh, but on the terror of their victims—including Force-sensitives.
