Dryden Vos' species

Dryden Vos' Species are an unidentified near-Human species. Dryden Vos, a member of this species, served Darth Maul as the public face of Crimson Dawn, a crime syndicate in Maul's Shadow Collective.

Biology
Members of Dryden Vos' species are externally nearly identical to Humans, and are known to be omnivorous. However, they are distinguished from Humans by the presence of a claw in place of a Human-like fingernail on their thumbs, and intricate vertical striations across their faces. These striations are closely connected to their adrenaline levels and circulatory system. In moments of stress, the eyes of this species would become bloodshot, and their facial striations would flare up. It is unknown if their striations run across other parts of their bodies.

History
At some point by 19 BBY, a male member of this species, Dryden Vos, became the public face of the criminal organization Crimson Dawn, rising in power throughout the Clone Wars. Crimson Dawn was a member of the Zabrak crime lord Maul's Shadow Collective, and Vos secretly answered to Darth Maul himself. In his position as the head of Crimson Dawn, he acquired a luxurious Kalevalan yacht known as the First Light, where he based his operations out of. In 19 BBY, Maul, who had forcefully taken over the planet Mandalore, was contacted by Maul, meeting via hologram with Maul and the other Shadow Collective syndicate leaders. Maul ordered them to go into hiding, as he knew the end of the Clone Wars would herald the culmination of the Sith Grand Plan. Following his orders, Dryden Vos laid low throughout the fall of the Jedi and the creation of the Galactic Empire. He remained in his position after entering public life once more by 13 BBY. By that time, Vos purchased a Human slave from Corellia named Qi'ra, training her in martial arts as she rose the ranks of Crimson Dawn. Vos also dealt with the Pyke Syndicate, and was involved in spice trade.

Dryden Vos also employed a Human criminal named Tobias Beckett, who killed an alien bounty hunter named Aurra Sing for Vos. In 10 BBY, Beckett promised Vos a supply of coaxium as payment for an old debt, taking his crew to steal an Imperial supply of coaxium from Vandor, joined by another Human Corellian named Han Solo and a Wookiee named Chewbacca. However, the operation was botched after some interference from the Cloud-Riders gang, with the only survivors being Beckett, Han, and Chewbacca.
