Rock wart

Rock warts, also spelled rock-wart, were a species of venomous parasites that could be found on Tatooine. They had eight legs and four eyes. Within their sting and bite, the rock warts of Tatooine possessed a painful neurotoxic venom, and the rock warts used their toxic bite to kill their target before laying their eggs in his or her body. Rockwart venom could kill much larger prey. The venom was used in the preparation of a powder utilized by assassins.
