Miscellaneous Creatures:
Here are some creatures you might want to know about.  These are the creatures so far that you know you will encounter.
Vornskr: A vornskr is a large canine like animal.  They hunt using the force, so they are prone to attack Jedi.  They are calmer if you remove their tail.  Typically they grow to be roughly .8 meters tall.  They have a long whip like tail that injects a poison into the struck victim.  Why do you need to know about this?  Because Celicia is carrying around a 2 month old baby vornskr who still has a tail.
Humans: Humans are everywhere.  They are all over the Republic, will probably be all over Farina's Web, and there are two in the party.  They are generally versitile creatures.  They can be especially dangerous when trained in the force to be a Jedi.
these pictures were taken from Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith.  A good game, but from about 1997 or so.
Wookie: Wookies are large, tough, strong and tend to be good with mechanics.  There is also a wookie in the party.
Chiss: Chiss are a blue skinned humanoid race from either the outer reaches of the Republic Galaxy, or another galaxy.  They have red eyes, and a Chiss was the only 'alien' species to ever make it to the rank of Grand Admiral under the rule of the racist Emperor Palpatine.  Grand Admiral Thrawn was a tactical genius.  This is here to see if you are still paying attention.  ;-)
Yuuzhan Vong: These are from a galaxy outside of the New Republic's galaxy.  They hate technology, and they hate Jedi.  They don't have a presence in the force so they are hard for Jedi to fight and impossible for Jedi to directly manipulate.  They use creatures in place of technology and they are covered in tatoos.  They invaded the Republic but were defeated and then they attacked Farrina's Web 50 years ago.

Ysalamiri: Since the above pic has thrawn holding a ysalamiri, and you would know them from your galaxy I decided to put them in. Ysalamiri are lizard creatures that live in trees.  They don't move much if ever.  They attach themselves to branches to get nutrients.  They also have the unique ability to 'push back' the force.  They can be a nightmare for any Jedi.
Spider Demons: These creatures are native to Farrina's Web.  We don't know much, just that they feed on other living creatures and gain power in the force from them.  This probably makes Jedi particullarly tasty.  They are probably something to read up on.
Yuuzhan Vong pic
Lomps: We ran into one at the Jedi Academy.  They are humanoid and turtle like.  They tend to worship some of the spiders, the one we met worshipped Mortarrius.  They are native to Farrina's Web, and the one we met liked Jedi.
Sirdians: The dude with the whips at Red Sully's base.  These creatures are catlike, and have grey fur, and if I have this wrong, no one will notice aside from Jon cause no one reads my page anyway...but I get XP, so there :-P
Noghri: These guys are really cool.  They have black fur, are catlike as well, are small, compact, and killing machines.  They have mastered the martial arts, and are wonderful and resourceful assasins.  See one of these guys and beware.  They can kill a bird in midair with a knife.
Droids: You have seen suprisingly few of these creatures.  It makes sense what with the droid rebellion a few hundred years earlier, but then why don't the react at all to tweak's presence in your party.  He's the only droid you've seen in this galaxy.
Skywalkers: You would swear these guys are a spiecies unto themselves.  Celi is a pain, and head strong and looking for trouble, Luke according to some histories was a whimp that managed to singlehandedly bring down two sith lords, and Admiral Skywalker was originally just a general, but now he's a Jedi Master in disguise, what's up with that?
