Pykes

The Pykes were a species of sentient humanoids native to the planet Oba Diah. The species was distinguished by their unsettlingly large heads and undersized faces. A notable group of Pykes was the Pyke Syndicate, the galaxy's preeminent suppliers of spice, a narcotic substance mined by slaves on the planet Kessel.    A sentient species, the Pykes were humanoid, although most were slimmer and taller than most humans. They had two long, lanky legs, and two arms that ended in three-fingered hands. Their heads were large and elongated, with a tapered skull and a proportionately undersized face, a feature which some other species found unsettling. Pykes had two narrow, almond-shaped eyes which could be blue, magenta,[1] or purple in color.[3] Their heads rested upon elongated, sinuous necks. The species had two sexes, male and female.[1] Pykes had yellow[6] or green blood.[7] Some Pykes had smaller craniums than others of the species, as well as short bloated necks, and five fingers.[2] Whereas others of the species had a range skin tones including grey and green,[3] these individuals only possessed teal skin with pink accents. Beneath the masks frequently worn by the species, the short-necked Pykes' faces resembled fish.[2] The atmosphere of the planet Kessel could provoke lethal allergic reactions in Pykes if they were exposed to it for too long, necessitating the wearing of special protective gear if they remained there long-term.
