Legend

this near-Human race came from the planet Nagi, located in a star cluster which was beyond the borders of both the Old Republic and the Empire. Distinguished by their pale, translucent skin and their thin, angular features, the Nagai had jet-black hair which grew upwards instead of falling down. After the Battle of Endor, the Nagai supported one of Lumiya's bids to overthrow the New Republic. The Nagai were a race of humanoid warriors which were bitter enemies of the Tofs. The Nagai claimed to be from a planet beyond the known galaxy, but their homeworld of Nagi was later discovered in the Unknown Regions. When they realized that the Tofs were trying to take over the galaxy, the Nagai joined with the New Republic and the Imperial remnants to overcome the Tofs. Little was known about the Nagai until well after the Battle of Endor, and even the Alliance referred to them simply as "Knives", after the individual Nagai who tried to enslave the Wookiees on Kashyyyk. After the defeat of the Empire and the formation of the New Republic, the Nagai split into two peaceful factions. One group remained neutral, and set out to locate a new homeworld. The other faction decided to join the New Republic, while the Nagai navy set out to liberate as many Nagai as they could from Tof-controlled worlds.
