Chev



The Chevs were one of the two native sentient species of the planet Vinsoth. These humanoids were slaves of the Chevin, Vinsoth's other indigenous people, for most of their recorded history, a fact which shaped their culture and their interactions with the rest of the galaxy.

Biology and Appearance
Though they are sometimes classed as Near-Humans, other sources indicate that they are humanoids who evolved from Vinsoth's indigenous primates. By the time of the Galactic Empire's rise, they had been enslaved by the pachydermoid Chevin for millennia.

The outward appearance of the Chevs is generally similar to that of Humans, with pale skin, short blond or white head hair, no facial hair, and heavy brows. Their hair is often dyed in bright colors to identify them as property of a particular Chevin. Their lidless eyes are black to violet in color and protected by thin transparent membranes. They are physiologically much like other humanoid species, with their twin hearts being a notable exception. According to sources such as The University of Sanbra Guide to Intelligent Life, one Chev heart could take over when the other failed, allowing Chevs to live for up to three hundred standard years. As Chev slaves could outlive their Chevin masters, this meant that Chevin slave-owners often left prize slaves to relatives in their wills. Other sources, however, gave a more modest 75 years as a typical Chev life expectancy.
