The Anx were a large, reptilian species from the planet Gravlex Med.
[edit] Biology and appearance
Sociable creatures, they possessed an incredible devotion to any group of which they felt a part. Their crests could change color to reflect their moods. The Anx language was made of loud, low-frequency noises that they could use to communicate across distances of several kilometers.
To compensate for poor eyesight, Anx had an acute sense of smell. They also tended to possess a formidable knowledge of anatomy, especially nerves, muscles and bone structures, making them dangerous unarmed combatants and skilled warriors, capable of defeating most opponents.
In the time around the Invasion of Naboo, their home planet of Gravlex Med was represented by senator Horox Ryyder. He retired around the time of the Battle of Geonosis. The next senators were Zo Howler and his assistant Fo Kuna.
Later in time, Gravlex Med became a weapons testing ground for the Empire. This led to a near total destruction of Gravlex Med and the Anx species. After the New Republic took over, the remaining Anx asked it to help bring their planet back, but the damage was irreversible.
Other notable Anx were: Graxol Kelvyyn (a slave trader from Ryloth, who was seen with Watto during the Boonta Eve Classic, held on Tatooine), Theen Fida, and Madurrin, a Jedi Knight during the Yuuzhan Vong War.
