Svivreni

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

The Svivreni were a species of stocky, furred equinoids native to the planet Svivren, known for their stubbornness and adherence to no-weapons philosophies. They had large, equine faces, and their heads were covered with flowing hair. Individual Svivreni were known to live for a 100 years or more. The fingers of the Svivreni were unusual in that they had three joints, providing increased dexterity and gripping power.

[edit] Customs

Svivreni custom demanded that adults never trim their hair, as the length of an individual's hair was often regarded indicating both fertility and intelligence. A heavy, metal ring held the hair in a loose 'pony tail'.

As a people, the Svivreni were stubborn and considered nearly impossible to influence once they made a decision. Although the Svivreni chose to remain neutral during the Galactic Civil War, many individuals served the Alliance rather than submit to Imperial control.

Also, in general, Svivreni never wished one another goodbye. Instead, they offered each other the simple advice: "The journey begins, so go."
