Bothan

Bothans were furry mammalian anthropoids, about 1.5 meters tall. Hailing from Bothawui and several colonies, Bothans differed in facial appearance and body structure with canine, feline, and equine features. They were known for being master politicians and spies, craving intrigue and subterfuge.

The Bothans were members of the Galactic Republic from at least 4,000 BBY, but likely from a significantly earlier point.

These short, fur-covered humaniods have had hypersapce travel for thousands of yeasrs and were among the first civilization to join galactic society. Bonthans deal in information. They use information as a measure of wealth and power, even weilding it as a weapon when necessary. The Bothan Spynet serves as one of the largest intelligence agencies thoughout most eras. Culurally, Bonthans dont believe in direct conflict. They prefer to manipulate situations from behind the scenes, to watch and wait for information and opertunity, and to use these tools to gain status and influence.

Adventurers
Bothan adventurers, such as operatives in the Spynet, engage in daring deeds-even when such deeds put them at great personal risk. In addition to intelligence operatives, Bothan heroes serve as soldiers and pilots, diplomats and ambassadors.. Their curiosity leads some to be explorers and scouts. Even when a Bothan takes up a noble cause, his or her cultural upbringing makes it hard not to look for the profit and prestige in the situation.
