The arrak snake was a type of reptile that possessed avian characteristics and originated from the planet Ithor. Its diet consisted of shamarok flitters.
Featuring vibrantly hued, feathered scales and green eyes, the arrak snake possessed small wings, enabling it to inhabit the canopies of Ithor's jungles, specifically amongst the Bafforr trees. These snakes used intricate, melodic hooting sounds to communicate with one another.
During a confrontation with Boba Fett, a Clawdite called Nuri assumed the form of an arrak snake, attempting to subdue him through constriction. However, Fett struck a weak point on Nuri's chin with his Vibroblade, causing Nuri to morph into a dinko and then a Fefze beetle.
