<div class="topdiv"><p class="single nomargin">Draethos are long-lived humanoids from a little known, largely secret world in the Outer Rim. When on their homeworld, Draethos are fierce and unrepentant warriors. They are ruled by haughty, spoiled aristocrats more interested in local affairs than galactic politics. The warriors spend their time perfecting their skills and hunting fierce predators on their homeworld of Thosa.</p><!--

--><p class="single nomargin">{{indent}}Draethos residing offworld are usually exiles who chose not to become warriors, each for his or her own reason. Thus, they are highly intelligent and pacifistic. Exiled Draethos become enthralled with learning as much as they can, though they might never practically apply their detailed knowledge of a given subject. They dislike debate&mdash;even on subjects they know extremely well&mdash;because Draethos fear overlooking details or being unable to adequately explain what they have learned. Older Draethos eventually overcome this barrier.</p><!--

--><p class="single nomargin">{{indent}}Partly due to their long lives, Draethos society is slow to evolve and re lies heavily on tradition. Attitudes developed before the Knights of the Old Republic era remain central to Draethos society thousands of years later. The stability of the Draethos culture
cause exiled Draethos to have trouble understanding the complex and relatively rapid changes in alien societies.</p></div><!--

-->{{Spechar
|species=Draethos
|personality=The typical personalities of the Draethos vary greatly between offworld residents and those remaining on Thosa. Exiles are highly intelligent, but socially inept. They avoid conflict whenever possible. Draethos living on their homeworld live up to their fierce and aggressive reputations.
|description=A Draethos&rsquo;s most prominent feature is a lipless mouth, which creates the illusion of a large overbite. Their tightly muscled humanoid bodies are covered in a scaly skin ranging from violet to mauve to gray. Their hands are clawlike, contributing to the Draethos&rsquo;s skeletal appearance.
|homeworld=Few offworlders know the exact location of the Outer Rim world Thosa, the Draethos homeworld. It features jagged, windswept mountains and deep, sprawling cave systems.
|languages=Draethos is an erratic-sounding language full of harsh clicks and sighs. Exiled Draethos also quickly learn Basic and any other languages common to the region.
|names=Odan&#8209;Urr, Omai&#8209;Zan, Uvai&#8209;Nor, Shai&#8209; Orl, Tyan&#8209;Ruu
|adventurers=Draethos on Thosa are primarily soldiers, with a few noble leaders. Force-users follow ancient and mysterious Draethos [[Force-using_Traditions|force&nbsp;traditions]]. Exiled Draethos can belong to any class, and a few have gone on to join the ranks of the [[Jedi (force tradition)|Jedi]].
