Shistavanens, hailing from the planet Uvena Prime, were a species of sentient bipeds. These beings were covered in fur, possessed clawed paws, and had wolflike faces, further characterized by glowing yellow or red eyes. Odabba, a Shistavanen employed by Garello Technologies in the High Republic Era, is one example of this species. A tale recounts how Kordus Vrak, a Shistavanen explorer visiting Lupal's moon, was transformed into a savage creature by the red sun's rays.
