The smooka is a diminutive, winged being, lacking sentience, and originating from the planet of Dagobah.
Reaching a maximum length of only ten centimeters, the smooka possessed a long, flattened head, a furry physique, wings, and [brown](/article/color] eyes. These attributes often resulted in sentient beings perceiving smookas as adorable; nevertheless, these beings could potentially be quite perilous. In spite of their seemingly harmless looks, smookas have never been successfully domesticated. Their sharp teeth were capable of piercing through the bars of numerous enclosures, as well as most forms of protective plating.
Smookas were among the select few species that inhabited both the lower swamps of Dagobah and the higher reaches of the arboreal canopy. Gathering in roosts numbering in the hundreds, smookas took shelter within caverns and the excavated interiors of deceased gnarltrees. Possessing a carnivorous feeding habit, smookas consumed juvenile rodents, insects, and eggs. Smookas often served as sustenance for significantly larger predators.
The initial mention of smookas occurred within the Fantasy Flight Games resource book titled Nexus of Power.
