Saurin

Canon Legends version → Linked from 65 articles

The Saurin were a species of sentient reptiles from the planet of Durkteel, in the Mid Rim of the galaxy. They had imposing, jagged teeth, knobby skin, and ridges along the length of their heads.

On the day Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Skywalker met Han Solo and Chewbacca in the cantina of Mos Eisley, two Saurin patrons were in the bar. A Saurin named Gauron Nas Tal was a resident of Jabba the Hutt's palace. He worked as a combat trainer for Jabba. Even though Gauron worked for Jabba, he planned to kill him.
