Ruusanian
this was the name given to the race of near-humans which settled the planet Ruusan during the height of the Old Republic. Their history showed that they believed they could feel the "rhythm of the planet", although the Jedi Knights discovered no connection in them to the Force. In the aftermath of the Battle of Ruusan, many Ruusanians survived the blast of the thought bomb unleashed by the Brotherhood of Darkness, thanks to the efforts of Lord Hoth and the Army of Light to shield them from the blast. Note that the Power of the Jedi Sourcebook claims that it was the Ruusanians who prophecied the coming of a Knight to free the souls trapped in the Valley of the Jedi, not the Bouncers, despite what was chronicled in the Jedi versus Sith comic series.
