The Jastaal were an avian sentient species. They had wings, which partially extended when they walked, lifting their bodies so that they appeared to be half-gliding along,[1] bouncing on the wind.[2] They had plumage considered by some in the galaxy to be beautiful, and spoke in a trilling language. In 2 BBY, a number of Jastaal were present on the planet Bonadan at the same time that the smuggler Han Solo was there investigating a slaving ring.[1]

Behind the scenes

The Jastaal were created by Brian Daley for his novel Han Solo's Revenge, published by Del Rey in 1979. They later received an entry in The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia, published in 2008.
