Rancors are towering, hulking creatures of muscle and reptilian flesh that walk on two stubby legs and use their disproportionately long arms to capture prey. A salivating, tooth-filled maw dominates their flat faces, and their armored skin is so tough that they can shrug off blaster bolts as little more than annoyances.

Rancors were prized as trophies by crimelords and other wealthy, amoral individuals. Jabba the Hutt kept a rancor in a shadowy chamber beneath his Tatooine throne room.

Jedi Knight series

In Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith, Mara Jade faced (and defeated) a rancor that belonged to the crimelord Takara while trying to escape from his stronghold.

In Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, Jaden Korr faced a rancor from a Hutt crimelord on Nar Kreeta, who kept the creature in his dungeon near the cells of his prisoners.

Later on, Jaden Korr faced a mutated rancor released by the Disciples of Ragnos on a spaceport on Taanab.
