Rodians are reptilian humanoids, which serve as the enemies in Jedi Knight. They appear in all the games of the series, though not always as the enemy.

Background

Native to the planet of Rodia, these humanoids are often seen on very different worlds such as Tatooine or Coruscant. There've been many notable Rodians in the history, which include Greedo, a bounty hunter in the service of Jabba the Hutt, who was shot in the cantina in Mos Eisley, or Onaconda Farr, a Rodian senator, serving the Republic Senate during the Clone Wars. Suvam Tan was a Rodian scientist, who oversaw a space station near Yavin IV some four thousand years before the rise of the Empire.

Most Rodians have green skin and black eyes, though other colors also not uncommon among their species, such as blue or reddish one.

Appearances

Rodians appear both in JO and JA, where they are part of the mercenaries' group affiliated with the Remnant and later the Disciples of Ragnos. Usually they use blasters or disrupter rifles to attack from afar. In most cases they wear light costumes with orange stripes and sometimes a brown vest. They also appear in Dark Forces II as a secondary enemy NPC on Nar Shaddaa, often using a small blaster. In Mysteries of the Sith Rodians are some of the guests of Ka'Pa the Hutt and attack only if being provoked.

In JA the Players are offered to customize their character, Jaden Korr, and Rodian is one of the available species.
