"Physical calculus is the foundation of logical analysis, and logical analysis is the foundation of Elom civilization. This art raised us from what we were to what we are."

―Rattagagech to Princess Leia Organa Solo.^[src]

The Elomin were horned humanoids from Elom who lived on the surface of the planet while another sentient species—the Elom—lived underground.

Biology and appearanceEdit

Elomin skin featured a variety of colors from bright pink to dark purple. Features of their anatomy which distinguished them from baseline humans included neck wattles, spanchons, four stomachs, generative nodes, six-chambered hearts, nose tusks, long hairs which grew behind their ears, and horns.

PersonalityEdit

Elomin strove to find order in things and worked to create order where none existed. Therefore, they were unable to cope with the unstructured attack of a perfectly executed Marg Sabl maneuver. The Elomin were obsessed with personal hygiene, combing their long ear hair and polishing their horns.

HistoryEdit

The Elomin were thought by some xenoarchaeologists to be descended from a lost colony of Zabrak who settled Elom in the distant past.^[1] The Elomin inhabited the surface of their planet, initially unaware that another intelligent species inhabited the crust below. The Elom had once lived on the surface, but were forced to move underground when water became scarce. They remained isolated, continuing to retreat further underground.

When the Elomin re-discovered the Eloms, their government tried to convince the Galactic Republic that they were only unintelligent animals, and pressed them in to service as servants and laborers. The truth was eventually discovered, and Eloms were granted the same rights as other sentient species. Despite their newly bestowed sufferage, Eloms did not seem to be interested in politics, and continued to live in their burrows. The Elomin continued to govern the world of Elom and represented the planet offworld. When the Galactic Empire came to power, they enslaved the Elomin to work in their own lommite mines. The Eloms staged raids and rescued numerous Elomin from slavery. After their planet was liberated by the Republic, the two species began integrating their societies together.
