The Mirialans were a race of near-humans native to the Outer Rim planet Mirial. The Mirialan people were very religious, and adhered to a primitive understanding of the Force as their underlying beliefs. They believed that each individual's actions contributed to their destiny, and an individual placed a unique tattoo on their face and hands to signify the completion of certain tests and tasks. As an individual matured, the number of tattoos increased, allowing other Mirialans to quickly learn what role an individual will play in the future of Mirial. The skull of the average Mirialan was crowned by sensitive, extrasensory organs that gave the Mirialan a sixth sense. Because these organs were sensitive to changes in humidity, most Mirialans wore special headdresses to protect them.
