[edit] Characteristics
Mykes closely resembled Humans, with the exception of a fairly pale complexion and facial differences. Their hair was often a shade of black or dark brown, with eye colors typically ranging anywhere from dark blue to dark purple, dark green, dark brown or dark gray. The species had distinctive fleshy "chin tufts" at the sides of their chins, giving them their unique look.
[edit] Behind the scenes
Curtis Saxton, on one of his Star Wars Technical Commentaries pages, has speculated that the fleshy chin tufts seen on Noryn Kim and similar looking characters in comic adaptations (especially those drawn by Edvin Biukovic) signify Sith or Massassi ancestry.[1]
