Dobozai

Dobozai are a fictional species of humanoid beings originating from the *Star Wars* expanded universe, specifically within the *Star Wars: The Old Republic* (SWR) video game and its associated lore. They are a nomadic, matriarchal species native to the desert planet of **Dromund Kaas**, located in the Outer Rim sector of the galaxy. Their society is deeply rooted in tradition, with a strong emphasis on family, communal living, and a reverence for the natural world.

Physically, Dobozai resemble tall, slender humanoids with elongated limbs and a distinctive, often ornate, body art known as *tatooing*, which serves as a form of personal and cultural expression. Their skin tones vary widely, ranging from light to dark hues, and their eyes are typically large and expressive. Dobozai society is structured around extended family units called *clans*, which migrate across Dromund Kaas in search of resources and suitable habitats. Their primary language is **Dobozan**, though many speak Galactic Basic due to interactions with other species.

Culturally, Dobozai are known for their deep connection to the planet’s desert ecosystems, often serving as stewards of the environment. They practice a form of spiritualism centered around the *Great Mother*, a revered concept representing the life force of Dromund Kaas. Their technology is generally primitive compared to other galactic species, relying on simple tools and traditional knowledge, though some clans have adopted limited energy-based devices.

In the *Star Wars* universe, Dobozai have occasionally clashed with imperial forces and other factions, particularly during the galactic conflicts of the High Republic era. Their resilience and adaptability have allowed them to endure despite external pressures, though their isolationist tendencies often limit their involvement in broader galactic affairs. Their presence in *The Old Republic* game expands their role in the lore, showcasing their struggles against the Sith Empire and other threats to their way of life.
