Palliduvans, a species classified as near-human, possessed a distinctive set of traits: their bodies were slender, their skin resembled the color of chalk (white), and their digits were elongated and bony, adapted for the extraction of blood. Noteworthy members of the Palliduvan race included Aurra Sing, a well-known bounty hunter, and Valik, a pirate.
The initial depiction of Palliduvans occurred in Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, a 1999 cinematic release that marked the beginning of the Star Wars prequel trilogy. Their official designation was first established in "The Doza Dilemma," a 2019 episode guide associated with the Star Wars Resistance television program.
Within the context of Star Wars Legends, Aurra Sing was portrayed as a hybrid, resulting from the union of a Human and a near-Human species.
