Originally from the world Sanyassa, the Marauders are a species of barbaric, two-meter-plus tall humanoids that prey upon the more peaceful inhabitants of Endor's forest moon. These beings have scaly, Simian-like faces, gray-green skin, and four-fingered hands. They wore ragged clothing adorned with scavenged items. The Marauders were stranded on Endor when their starship crashed on the forest moon. The long-lived species have been stranded on Endor for almost a century. The Marauders believed themselves to be pirates, but the last vessel they commandeered was too advanced, too alien for them to pilot. The Marauders have since constructed their gloomy castle in the plains of Endor, where they were ruled by King Terak, and Charal his lieutenant.
Many years ago when the Marauders captured the stranded scout named Salak, he spoke of his starship hidden in the forests. Salak told of how the vessel traveled through the stars, capable of doing so by the "power." While what Salak spoke of was everyday technology in much of the galaxy, the Marauders were primitive, and were desperate to leave Endor. The sought the "power" of the stars that Salak spoke of. In their quest, King Terak and his Marauders mistook the stranded star cruiser of the Towani family for Salak's ship, and killed its crew for the "power." The Marauders use beat-up blaster pistols and rifles, as well as swords, knives and spears. The Marauders ride bloated lizard creatures called blurrgs.
