The Katikoot were a sentient species resembling bats, originating from the double planet system consisting of Gloam and Aubadas. Initially native to Gloam, the Katikoot were compelled to move to Aubadas when mining operations inadvertently released a plague. This plague transformed members of their species into zombie-esque monsters. Sometime after this relocation, the Katikoot lost their power of flight, and ultimately, their authentic origins faded from memory. Their method of communication was a whistling language, though they also possessed the capability to communicate using Galactic Basic Standard.
