A barren Selonian female, Salculd was of the Selonian species. Her fur was a polished black color all over, save for her light brown abdomen. Residing on Corellia, she belonged to the Hunchuzuc Den. Raised specifically for piloting, she operated rudimentary Selonian cone ships. Despite the Selonian reputation for honesty, Salculd was unusually direct with her thoughts, and she was also known to make the occasional witty remark.
Salculd and Han Solo struggled to prevent their cone ship from disintegrating during their voyage to Selonia during the time of the First Corellian Insurrection. Dracmus was in command of the ship, but he lacked familiarity with starship operations, and at times, issued orders that could have jeopardized the crew. Salculd displayed obvious relief when Han persuaded Dracmus to acknowledge his superior skills.
