Talk:Lekku

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

So... if parts of the brain are located in the lekku, does it mean Twi'leks have holes in their skulls? Also it makes them extremely vulnerable to concussion of the brain. - Sikon [Talk] 18:07, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

  • No, It just means that they have more brains.
    • They actually do but from these holes are bone structures like cats tails.Lieutenant J.J 07:52, 21 October 2008 (UTC)Lieutenant J.J

[edit] Rubbish Togruta picture

Surely there has to be a better picture to use to show Togruta lekku! -Kev-La Ttolya 16:21, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Are the Togruta head-tails called lekku? - Sikon (Vacation) 18:15, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Appearances

I know for a fact that lekku have appeared in much more movies/books/comics than those listed. Red Head Rider 19:21, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

  • I was about to say the same - but I figured it's the word lekku that is mentioned in these - so I'm adding kotor 2. Gustafar 19:19, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
    • Why does that matter? An appearance is an appearance. I think this list should be expanded with the other appearances from the Twi'lek article. What do you think? NaruHina Talk 00:58, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Togruta

Lekku is only the Twi'lek name. We can't assume the Togruta would use the same name unless they speak the exact same language. I believe Togruta would probably have their own name for their "head tails."--Lord OblivionSith holocron 19:27, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Only one way to find out. Arrange for a slumber party with Aayla Secura and Shaak Ti. Enochf 20:23, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
  • In Star Wars:complete dictionary it calls Togruta lekkus horns and lekkus,and Twi'lek lekkus lekkus.They say Togruta "horns" [or lekkus]are hollow and sense ultra sonicwaves.This makes it easy for both to get brain concussion-Twi'leks have holes in the back.You gotta be careful!Addictedtostarwarsthatswhyimhere

[edit] Quote

If anyone cares, this article has the same quote as the Twi'lek article. Jedi Knight Zinquinthia25 06:46, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Weak Lekku

It says in the article that a Twi'leks' lekku is weak and it hurts them when people grab them. However in the Dark Nest I: The Joiner King it says that Alema takes a blow from one of the Noghri on her Lekku and she's fine afterwards, so where's the source for them being weak? I'm going to change it unless somebody gives a source soon - Kingpin13Cantina Battle Ground 11:58, 20 May 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Sensitive Lekku in Togruta's

Okay, so I know that the Togruta head tails are called lekku right? but it says in the article that if grabbed hard or something like that it hurts them. Is that the same for Togruta's too? thanks JediNTT307 19:39, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sensitive Lekku, and Togrutas

Togrutas
I think Togrutas should be mentioned in this article. The Togruta's page has a link to this page.

Sensitive Lekku
In Tales from Jabba's Palace, there is a story about the Twi-lek named Oola. In that story it talks about them being sensitive (pg. 82) and nerve-ladden (pg. 87). On page 91 it mentions if sand scratches them, they would hurt.

What source calls a Togruta's head tails "lekku"? - JMAS Hey, it's me! 13:26, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Lekku are said to contain parts of the brain, so, unless someone can find a source saying that Togrutas' head-tails contain parts of the brain, then i think that the Togruta head-tails should simply be called head-tailsStrobes13 02:55, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
