Tamble

Tambles are a sapient amphibious species from the forest moon of Endor.

Biology
Tambles are small creatures, about half the size of a juvenile Ewok. They have three-fingered hands and flat three-toed feet. They live in rivers and need moisture to stay alive. If they stay too much time away from water, they will die.

When in their natural habitat, their bodies absorb large quantities of water and inflate like a pufferfish, which is considered their healthy natural state.

Culture and society
Tambles form family units and care for their young like most species. They're timid creatures, powerless against larger beasts such as the Blog, which can endanger the Tambles by building dams and drying up their rivers. When faced with such a threat, Tambles may seek help from other Endorian species.
