Themeluars

Themeluars are a fictional species of humanoid creatures originating from the *Star Wars* expanded universe, specifically within the *Star Wars: The Old Republic* (SOTOR) video game and its associated lore. They are a nomadic, warrior-like civilization known for their fierce independence and deep connection to the Force. Themeluars are native to the planet Thel Veloon, a world characterized by its harsh deserts and ancient ruins, which play a significant role in their culture and history.

Physically, themeluars possess elongated limbs, sharp features, and a distinctive, often armored appearance, reflecting their warrior heritage. Their society is structured around clans, with a strong emphasis on honor, survival, and the preservation of their ancestral traditions. Unlike many other species in the *Star Wars* universe, themeluars have historically avoided political alliances, preferring to remain isolated from galactic conflicts—though this stance has shifted over time.

In *Star Wars: The Old Republic*, themeluars are playable characters, offering players a unique perspective on the Sith-Imperial War. Their class options include the Warrior, a frontline combatant, and the Scout, a versatile ranged specialist. Themeluars are also notable for their deep ties to the Force, with many embracing its power as a means of survival and protection. Their lore explores themes of resilience, cultural preservation, and the struggle against external threats, including the Sith Empire and later, the Jedi Order.

Themeluars have appeared in various *Star Wars* media, including novels, comics, and video games, expanding their role beyond *SOTOR*. Their lore often highlights their adaptability and resourcefulness, as well as their complex relationship with the broader galaxy. Despite their initial isolationism, themeluars have gradually integrated into the *Star Wars* universe, contributing to its rich tapestry of species and cultures.
