Jedi and Sith Species Announced for Star Wars: The Old Republic 23o14

  i1m4l

Now  Players can look forward to Miraluka, a Mirialan, or a Zabrak.


So far we’ve only dropped hints about the range of Twi’lek Smuggler, but we can tell you now that all classes will include optional non-human species.

 

Sith Purebloods are “the red-skinned descendants of such notorious Sith Lords as Dark Jedi.
Next, the Miraluka are available as Sith Lord Darth Nihilus in approximately 3,952 BBY, during a Jedi convocation.
Miraluka
The Mirialan option is open for players wishing to be Jedi Consulars.  This green-skinned race often has facial tattoos and is known for being extremely agile.  “They are also respected for their patience and insight.” Mirialan is native to the planet Mirial. The Mirialan people were religious and practiced a primitive understanding of the Force. They believed each individual’s actions contributed to their destiny. A Mirialan would place a unique, often geometrically repeated tattoo on their face and hands to signify that they had completed a certain test or task, or achieved sufficient adeptness at a certain skill. The number of tattoos would thus often act as a good indicator of how mature and/or skilled a Mirialan was.
Mirialan
Finally, the Zabrak  can become Sith Inquisitors.  They are “self-reliant and aggressive” making them ideal candidates for intimidating everyone around them.  The species is native to Iridonia, an unforgiving and inhospitable planet.  They are a race known for having a fierce sense of self-determination and an equally dominant need for independence.
Zabrak
These new races, along with the previously announced playable races, only make up a fraction of the races players will see in official site for more details on SW:TOR and its diverse playable races.

Sith Pureblood lives on in the Sith Warriors who dominate the battlefield with their intimidating presence and aggressive tactics.

A near-human species with unrivaled strength in the Force, Miraluka can become powerful Lightsabers to always hit home.

As one of the most wise and mystical species in the galaxy, the green-skinned Mirialans can become powerful Jedi Consulars lead Republic Forces into battle with assurance and harness powerful Force energies to defeat their enemies.

Among the slaves serving the command of the Force.

As excited for these playable species as we hope you are, the list is not yet complete. We look forward to announcing further options in the coming months. We will also have additional details on the species above, so check the Inhabitants section regularly to make sure you get the latest information available.
