I know how aggravating it can be to read a story and have no idea how to picture the characters, so I thought I'd save you all the trouble of googling the many different and unusual species of this story.

I owe all of this information to my dear friend, Wookiepedia.

Any names or roles will be withheld just to hold some suspense.🤗

(Also, just for the sake of the story, they will all be speaking galactic basic instead of their native tongues.)
