Talortai

The Talortai were an avian sentient species that possessed feathers and clawed feet. Talortai hailed from Talor, an astronomical object that featured tropics. The species was strong in the Force, and Talortai could use their affinity to navigate the galaxy with precision; however, in the case of the Talortai navigator Udi Dis, their connection to the Force did not extend to the premonition that the Jedi were known for.

Dis, at one point a soldier, left Talor, eventually coming to use his navigation skills in service to the Nihil marauder organization under Eye of the Nihil Marchion Ro. By that time, the only possession that he had from his home were the curved wingblades that he carried. Dis accompanied Ro to the frozen planet Rystan, where Kufa, a cousin of Ro, was to take the two of them to the Shrine. Dis, not having experienced the cold growing up in the tropics of Talor, was affected by the temperature.
