Lek'ta (pronounced /lɛkta/) also known as Haylothians was a Near-Twi'lek, Humanoid species from the planet Hayloth. They usually had glossy and colorful skin. Attached to their heads were braintails known as Lekku. They had many Human-like features like their vocal cords. Their embassy was part of the Galactic Republic. They spoke Lek'Talish most of the time. Along with many in their sister species the Twi'lek, the females were sold as slaves. The only distinction from the Twi'leks were the many lekku that usually counted to 30.
Biology and appearance[]
The most easily known features that Lek'ta had were the many Lekku that held part of their brains. They also had many vibrant skin colors which changed over time. They were born with a primary color and then when they grew they changed to a secondary color which could have been made with their first color. Unlike the Twi'lek, the Lek'Ta' lekku were not very sensitive. If just one lekku got cut off, they had only about an hour to fully replace it. The lekku were symbols of power; the more lekku they had, they had more respect from other Lek'ta and Twi'leks. They usually put their lekku in a band and styled it like if it were hair. The woman were usually sold into slavery, but in order for the slave owner to buy them they must have kept order of the Lek'ta Slave Agreement
Apparel[]
The Lek'ta were very modest. The women were forced to cover all of their body and legs. The men always had to wear full legged pants, they did not have to cover their chest and they usually just wore pants. The clothes they wore were usually the opposite color on the Lek'ta Color Code. They usually styled their lekku with hairbands and headpieces.
