Summary

Zabraks are a near-human species with populations on multiple worlds. Dathomirian Zabraks such as Maul are culturally specific communities and should not be treated as representative of all Zabraks.

02 · Biology

Bodies and adaptation

Zabraks are commonly recognized by cranial horns and distinctive skin patterns. Physical features vary, and cultural markings or dress can carry meanings that are local rather than universal to the species.

03 · Society

Community and cultural variation

Zabrak populations include communities on Iridonia, Dathomir, and elsewhere. Dathomirian Nightbrothers exist within social systems shaped by Nightsister power, while other Zabraks participate in very different institutions.

04 · Institutions

Politics and power

Zabraks appear within the Jedi Order, Sith networks, local communities, criminal worlds, and ordinary civilian life. Their political positions therefore vary widely across time and place.

05 · Change over time

Historical pressures

The prominence of Maul links Zabraks to major Sith history, but figures such as Eeth Koth and Agen Kolar demonstrate a broader institutional range. Dathomir's destruction also makes displacement central to some Zabrak histories.
