Klytonian

The Klytonians were a sentient species who had the ability to communicate with one another at a distance using natural electric fields generated by the thick scales that covered their bodies. Their homeworld was Klytonia in the Klytonia system, which was located in the Outer Rim Bheriz sector. The system came within territory controlled by the Hutts during the Clone Wars, and, by 137 ABY, it fell within the Hutt dependencies. Klytonians were present in Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina on the planet Tatooine in 0 BBY when the Humans Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi sought passage offworld.

Biology and appearance
The Klytonians were a race of pangolin-like beings who had the ability to communicate with one another at a distance using natural electric fields generated by the thick scales that covered their bodies. Their homeworld was the planet Klytonia in the Klytonia system, which was located in the Outer Rim Bheriz sector. The system came within territory controlled by the Hutts during the Clone Wars, and, by 137 ABY, it fell within the Hutt dependencies. Klytonians were present in Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina on the planet Tatooine in 0 BBY when the Humans Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi sought passage offworld.

Society and culture
Members of the species were able to communicate with one another over fairly long distances by creating vibrations in their scales' electric fields.

History
The Klytonians hailed from the planet Kltyonia in the Klytonia system, a star system that became integrated into the galaxy as part of the Bheriz sector, in the Outer Rim reaches of the region known as the Slice, at some point between 1,000 and 25 BBY. During the Clone Wars, the Klytonian's system was within territory controlled by the Hutts as part of Hutt Space; however, this influence had retracted by 14 BBY. By c. 25 ABY, their home system fell within a region of the Outer Rim Territories that was only sparsely populated. In 137 ABY, their region had fallen within an area known as the Hutt dependencies.

Klytonians in the galaxy
In 0 BBY, at least two Klytonians were present at the Mos Eisley Cantina on the planet Tatooine when the Humans Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi entered looking for passage to the planet Alderaan. Despite the din in the establishment, the Klytonians used their electrical fields to talk to each other across the crowded bar.
