Wraid

Wraids are large, knuckle-walking reptilianoid indigenous to Tatooine though also found on other desert worlds like Korriban and Tython. They are notable for a pair of very powerful forelimbs, which allowed them to move swiftly using long, bounding strides - typically they would only move like this when agitated, however, which was only exacerbated by the large claws on these limbs and their many sharp teeth. Their hind legs were much smaller, indicating that all their movement power was from the front. Their skulls possessed plates of some kind.

Pack organisms by nature, they are often found in clusters anywhere between 2 and six members. They were not normally aggressive to sapient creatures, and would usually not harm passersby unless provoked; however, once provoked their danger would become immediately apparent.

Because of their ferocious appearance and short temper, they are a popular quarry of less-experienced big game sport hunters from around the galaxy. When the settlement of Anchorhead was founded on Tatooine approximately 4,000 BBY, hunting Wraids developed into a marketable trade with the opening of hunting lodges and salespeople dealing in Wraid skull plates purchased from hunters.
