escapenters

Escarpenters are a fictional species from the "Star Wars" universe. They are an insectoid species originating from the planet K't'm'k't. Escarpenters are characterized by their hard exoskeletons, multiple limbs, and a hive-like social structure. They are known for their technological prowess, particularly in the fields of bio-engineering and cybernetics.

Physically, escarpenters typically stand between 1.5 and 2 meters tall, with a segmented body covered in a chitinous exoskeleton that can range in color from dark brown to iridescent green. They possess four to six limbs, with the upper pair often adapted for manipulation and the lower pairs for locomotion. Their heads are dominated by large, compound eyes and a pair of sensitive antennae. Communication among escarpenters is primarily through a combination of pheromones, clicking sounds, and telepathic resonance within their hive.

Their society is highly structured, with individuals fulfilling specific roles within the hive, such as workers, warriors, or bio-engineers. This specialization allows them to achieve complex tasks efficiently. Escarpenters are generally a reclusive species, preferring to focus on their own internal development and technological advancement rather than engaging in widespread galactic affairs. However, they have been known to trade their advanced cybernetic implants and biological enhancements with other species when deemed mutually beneficial. Their motivations are often inscrutable to outsiders, driven by the collective goals of their hive.
