Zabrak Race

[Ghostly_Substance]

Well I got a challenge for anybody that wants to try. Could someone find any new information about the Zabraks and then make concept art for the Zabraks?

Wikipedia says:

 

The Zabrak are humanoids whose most distinctive feature is the array of small horns on top of their heads. Their home planet is Iridonia, though they have established many colonies on planets throughout the galaxy. It is believed that they are among the galaxy's first space-faring people. They have strong will-power and are a stubborn, proud people. By nature, they tend to be independent and fearless, hence have never been a successful venture in the slave trade.

 

Their crown of horns typically grow in at puberty, and are considered secondary sexual characteristics. The pattern in which these horns grow differs between Zabrak races (i.e. subspecies) analogous to skin color in humans.

 

Zabrak skin coloration can range from the rare pure white or pure black, to the more common shades of cream, peach, tan, and brown in between. Unlike humans, Zabrak skin color is not analogous to race. Rather it is a matter of genetic dominance and recessiveness, such as with the Ewok species, whose fur comes in various colors or patterns.

 

Zabrak can be completely bald or fully-haired. Again, it is analogous to race/subspecies. Certain horn patterns are linked with certain hair patterns (or baldness). Hair can be any of the same colors seen in the human species. However, unlike humans, Zabrak do not have eyebrows and do not grow facial hair.

 

Zabrak eye colors are often similar to the eye colors of humans, with blues and browns being the most common. Yellow, purple, red, green, and orange eyes are seen regularly. It should be noted however, that Darth Maul's red-yellow eye color was apparently the result of corruption by the Dark Side. His original eye color may never be known.

 

Zabrak also traditionally have facial tattoos, typically composed of a pattern of thin lines - which is considered the most traditional of Iridonian tattoos. In certain cases these tattoos can be quite elaborate (Maul's extensive red tattoo was actually a Sith tattoo, not a traditional Zabrak tattoo), but most Zabrak tend to be conservative with their designs. It is unclear what these designs signify. They may indicate which family the Zabrak belongs to, where they grew up, or they may well be just a matter of personal preference on the part of the Zabrak. The tattoos are obtained during a young Zabrak's rite of passage.

 

Known Zabrak from Canon include Agen Kolar, Eeth Koth, and Darth Maul. Known Zabrak from the Expanded Universe include Bao-Dur. The customizable player character of Star Wars: Jedi Academy, Jaden Korr can be a Zabrak female.

 

The word Zabrak refers to both the species and the language. The plural of Zabrak is Zabrak, not Zabraks, and the name of their language is Zabrak, not Zabraki.

 

Iridonian Zabrak

This species is the same as the Zabrak; however, the term Iridonian merely indicates those individual Zabrak who are from the planet or are a direct descendant of Zabrak born on the harsh desert planet--which is their homeworld and where the species is known to have evolved. Jedi Eeth Koth, who sat on the Jedi Council and Darth Maul the Sith Lord are both confirmed Iridonian Zabraks. Agen Kolar (whom Eeth Koth tapped to become his successor on the Jedi Council) is the same subspecies as his predecessor, based on horn pattern, hence it would be likely that Agen Kolar is also an Iridonian Zabrak, though this is merely speculation. More a cultural and geographical distinction than a biological one, Iridonian Zabrak are suspected to have a somewhat different and intact culture than those Zabrak who have spread throughout the galaxy and have largely become assimilated into the human-dominated culture. Scant evidence exists supporting a biological or anatomical difference between Iridonian Zabrak and others of the species, though some indicators include the tendency towards olive skin and dark hair - however, Darth Maul's skin color and hairless scalp challenge any generalities that could be made.
