Background: Xexto were a sentient species of slight, spindly, six-limbed aliens who were native to the planet Troiken. Xexto were highly dexterous, enabling them to participate in the highly dangerous sport of Podracing. Slingshots were extremely popular with Xexto, since their multiple sets of limbs made the weapons convenient to use. Gasgano, a famed Podracer pilot, was a Xexto, as was the pickpocket and pawn shop owner Ferpil Wallaway. A Xexto known as Sister Six worked as an assassin during the Galactic Civil War, while Captain Perrili of the bulk freighter Romary was a smuggler and Resistance contact.
Adapted to live in woodland habitats, Xexto were a sentient alien species identifiable by their pale-colored skin, and six long limbs, which afforded them a total of twenty-four digits. They used their bottom pair of limbs as legs. Atop a tall, thin neck, each Xexto had a head that featured a thin mouth and two black or red eyes. At least one Xexto, the Podracer pilot Gasgano, exhibited purple-colored skin above his eyes, a trait that not all members of the species possessed. Female Xexto could grow eyelashes and brown hair. A slight Xexto, Gasgano stood at a height of 1.22 meters.
Slingshots of various kinds were popular on the Xexto homeworld of Troiken, as a Xexto’s extra sets of limbs made the weapons more convenient for them to use. Because of their dexterity, Xexto were able to participate in the deadly sport of Podracing.
