Eklaad

The Eklaad were a race of quadrupedal aliens native to the planet Sirpar. They have prehensile snouts and were covered with tough, armored hides. Eklaad live in tribes that exist in a stone-age level of technology. The elders of the Eklaad tribes met one a year in an annual Council of Chieftains, but the invasion of the Empire put a stop to that. As a race, Eklaad were timid and non-aggressive, and rolled themselves into armored balls when confronted with a dangerous situation. They were herbivorous.
