Moggonite
The Moggonites of Arorua were better known as one of the most obnoxious and treacherous species in the galaxy. They were short mammalian creatures, standing approximately 1/2 meters tall.[1] They were able to interbreed with at least one other species: Big Gizz, the leader of Jabba Desilijic Tiure's swoop gang, was a Moggonite hybrid.[2]
Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi experienced a sour encounter with a Moggonite named Mosko Bolpa on the planet Arorua in 44 BBY.[1]
Behind the scenes
Moggonites first appeared in the short comic "Life, Death, and the Living Force".[1] Big Gizz from Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire was later retconned as a Moggonite hybrid.[2]
