Teljenas

Teljenas is a fictional species from the Star Wars universe. They are a sentient, quadrupedal reptilian species hailing from the planet Telj. Physically, Teljenas are characterized by their tough, scaly hides, which vary in color from earthy browns to deep greens. They possess powerful limbs and a long, muscular tail, which aids in balance and can be used defensively. Their heads are typically broad with large, dark eyes adapted for low-light conditions, and they have a strong jawline.

Teljenas society is structured around a communal and deeply traditional way of life. They are known for their resilience and their deep connection to their homeworld. Historically, they have maintained a relatively insular existence, preferring to focus on their own internal affairs rather than engaging with galactic politics. While not inherently aggressive, they are fiercely protective of their territory and their way of life. Their technological development has been focused on practical applications, particularly related to survival and resource management on Telj. While few Teljenas are encountered outside their home system, those who do venture out often exhibit a quiet determination and a pragmatic outlook.
