Background: One of two Near-Human species native to the sinkhole world of Utapau, the stocky Utai toiled as laborers in the sinkhole cities and caverns of their homeworld. Utai society existed side-by-side with that of the gaunt Pau’ans.
Where the Pau’ans were tall and thin, their Utai cousins were generally short and chubby. Utai had pale, hairless skin and large, oblong heads. Two glassy black eyes protruded on thick stalks from the Utai’s face, which was otherwise unremarkable, aside from a small, puckered mouth. Utai had stubby, four-fingered hands and were capable workers and mechanics.
Added by Voren Na al The Utai are largely ignorant and disinterested in worldly or interstellar relations. They’ve been called Shorts, due to their small stature but also their brief lifespans. The utapaun sinkholes have long been home to the Utai. They colonized the inner walls and crevices of the planet’s sinkholes, and tamed the dactillions who once terrorized the skies as well as the helpful varactyls. The skittish Utai have distended eyes well adapted to lowlight conditions. Hardy Utai brave the lower depths of the sinkhole grotto to use the water pools found there as a basis of aquacultural fields.
