JAWASIntelligent but smelly scavengers of the desert, these rodent-like creatures are natives of Tatooine. About a meter tall and constantly jabbering in their own language, Jawas live in clans. To protect themselves from the fierce double suns of their planet, they wear coarse, homespun cloaks with hoods; only their glowing eyes are visible. Jawas travel and live in bands, using giant, treaded sandcrawlers for mobility and shelter. The crawlers can hold many dozens of Jawas as well as the droids and other machinery that they scavenge, repair and resell to Tatooine moisture farmers and others. Once each year before the storm season, Jawas make a trek to the great basin of the Dune Sea for a huge, secret rendezvous that becomes a great swap meet where they exchange news and salvaged items.
Ahulking, ancient vehicle, the Jawa sandcrawler is rusted and pitted
from long exposure to the twin suns and harsh winds of Tatooine. Driven
by a nuclear steam engine, the massive vehicle contains ore processors
and metal crushers as well as crowded workshops and repair rooms.
Repulsorlift tubes and conveyor belts form a materials circulation
system that runs throughout the vehicle's processing chambers. A warren
of Jawa living quarters fills the upper section.
