wait come back I am ready to hear about zabrak organs and zabrak men giving birth
alright, but you asked for this!
as a blanket statement, it is my general sci-fi/star wars belief that alien species’ organs and genitals should change according to 1) the need of the species involved 2) the specifics of their environment, and 3) whatever i personally think is super fucking cool/funny/and/or sexy. the headcanons below are broken up into two categories: “environmental/survival centric”, “organs used for communication”, “sex and reproduction/this is hot, let’s do that!”
with that in mind, let’s chat zabrak!
ENVIRONMENTAL/SURVIVAL-BASED ORGAN HEADCANONS
the zabrak homeworld, iridonia, is described as an arid and tough landscape, presumably either a desert or with desert-like biomes, so i based my zabrak headcanons on desert species, namely reptiles-- like the horned toad lizard, one of my inspirations for zabrak headcanons!
(doesn’t it look kinda like a zabrak with those horns??)
like the horned toad lizard, i imagine all zabrak are born with naturally thicker and denser skin to insulate their bodies and reduce moisture loss. they are not apex predators, but essentially low to mid-level predators. (however, because of how hostile iridonia and dathomir are, they’re fearsome out in the wider galaxy, but no worse than a pussycat back home)
as low-level predators/prey animals, they have evolved several organs and adaptions to help them stay alive:
tapetum lucidum for nightvision, as they were/are either naturally nocturnal or crepuscular, to escape the heat
EYE SLITS. because i said so.
a translucent brille, or eye scale, that protects the eyes from wind damage
a small organ that stores an emergency portion of water, like a camel;
a second bladder bag because all that extra pee’s gotta go somewhere;
a keen olfactory system that helps them hunt and “taste” the air for water and prey;
and, because they evolved among predators MUCH larger than them with even keener senses of smell and eyesight, they have small glands in their waterlines that emits foul-tasting fluid or blood, to deter predators. just like horned toad lizards. because it makes me laugh.
this foul fluid does not seem to work on the massive carnivorous birds of iridonia and dathomir. thankfully, they’ve got horns to avoid getting snatched by the back of their neck like a naughty puppy and dropped in a nest
potentially, it’s possible for their horns to have blood vessels but no nerve endings, as a means of regulating heat, which is vital in a desert/arid climate
okay this one is mostly a joke but i love imagining zabrak with very rough palms and feet. in these places, their dense skin hardens into something closer to scaling, so they can get purchase on the many sheer cliff faces and rocky terrains of iridonia and, later, dathomir. basically they are capable of scaling walls hands-free like a goddam gecko. imagine waking up in the middle of the night terrified to TWO GLOWING EYES GLARING DOWN AT YOU FROM YOUR CEILING and then hearing a quiet “i threw up.” that is so fucking funny.
SOCIAL ORGANS/BODY PARTS
a larger voicebox (or perhaps a small, secondary voicebox lower in the throat) that allows them to purr. purring is largely involuntary, and indicates safety, pleasure, satisfaction, or extreme joy. they can purr and talk at the same time. no, maul does not know he can do this, because he has never been happy enough to purr in his entire life. this voicebox also enables a high-pitched chirping noise used by infants to indicate distress, because zabraks do not cry naturally unless they are incredibly ill or in dangerous levels of emotional distress. i’m talking “dying of heartbreak” levels, for a few tears.
FUN COOL SEX/ROMANCE/STUFF ORGANS
i haven’t fully decided on this section, admittedly, but generally thinking, i find giving near-humanoid species “standard” human genitalia incredibly boring and wack, so these ideas are like... vague, hand-wavey brainstorms, more than hard headcanons.
zabraks bite to show affection, and claim mates. they also scent-mark territory/favorite people using subcutaneous pheromone glands at the base of their horns, under their chins and along their necks, and the back of their wrists. however they’re also very uhhhhh private, so no zabrak is going to tell you this. they’re just going to rub their face all over your pillow and fresh laundry and hand it to you, and you’ll walk around wearing their scent, none the wiser, wondering why your other zabrak friends are giving you a wide berth all of a sudden
at one point i was very into zabraks having hollow canines that could spit fluid and/or be used in marking a mate by biting them and injecting pheromone into the bite, but i don’t know anymore. i like it conceptually though.
generally speaking, most zabrak can both fertilize and be fertilized by a partner. (secondary sex characteristics such as mammary glands, horn placement and presentation are used to determine gender)
on iridonia, who carries a child is governed more by personal preference and cultural influence. on dathomir, only nightbrothers give birth. nightsisters (who are not zabrak) center femininity, among other things, in their idealogy, but since birth-giving and child-rearing are not tied to a specific sex or gender presentation among dathomirian nightsisters nor zabraks, it is not considered feminine. nightbrothers are assigned all tasks considered below nightsisters’ attention, including hard labor and menial tasks, and it’s not hard to see why they’d include bearing and raising children as falling under both those umbrellas.
like in humans, the pregnant zabrak body readies itself for pregnancy by stimulating mammaries and other processes to care for children. child-rearing and child-care are considered masculine traits and behaviors among the nightbrothers. sea-horse clan for life.
because nightbrothers are largely left alone and only have each other, child-birth and child-rearing are a communal affair, because they don’t get to have mates of their own. they are claimed by nightsisters, impregnated, and left. nightbrothers are close, but there is always a degree of distance between those outside their immediate family, because they know at some point they will have to kill each other, or watch each other die. but with young children, nightbrothers often carry them around on slings, keeping them close at hand, always in arm’s reach, because dathomir is an incredibly hostile planet, and a youngling wandering off even a few feet is likely to be snatched by one of the many opportunistic hunter animals populating the planet.

Savage survived and found his own way 😎 I always imagined him with a yellow double light saber so today I gave him one ✨
I noticed @dystopicjumpsuit queueing through my artworks aaah honor 🫶😱♥️ so this Savage is for you! Thank you so much and big Savage hugs, my friend! 🤩✨
Savage sober from Sith vibes would definitely give Wrecker style hugs and no one can change my mind! He was so protective and caring before the witches witched him! He deserves love and a yellow light saber 😁
Have a closer look and enjoy:

Broodmother Talzin, Maul and Asajj for the dragon Jedi au
The species is called Dathomirian Stalkers, a species known od living in large groups, lead by their broodmother. The broodmothers are no longer able to fly, their wings not growing beyond female’s normal size.
Their breath is a gas that causes hallucinations. Talzin is talented enough that with this and a few spells she can make people perceive her as a human witch, and talk with them without a mental bond.
Maul was Talzin’s son, only a few weeks old when stolen by Palpatine. Years later, Dooku, looking for allies, found the brood and was given his companion Asajj, to avenge Talzin’s son.
Size (human in scale)
I know Hound and Gizzer were supposed to be next but I was hit by arables for these

Savage Saturday! I read about this from @nika6q to @dystopicjumpsuit and @clonethirstingisreal (couldn‘t tag you sorry 🥺) and thought I might debut my first non-clone star wars artwork with this absolutely underrated character!
I‘m a huge fan of the original Savage. He is a caring brother 🥹🫶🏼
I hope you like it! 🫶🏼✨

“The child, whether yours or not, is a Nightbrother, conceived for the purpose of serving the sisterhood as a warrior and slave.”
Palpatine to Kycina from "Darth Plagueis" // Chapter 15
Happy May the 4th!
Commissions! Give a tip!
Unfortunately I haven't finished this project in time for May 4th, (things have been hectic lately) but I opted to show the concept art for it. Better to have something than nothing!
The destiny of a male Dathomirian Zabrak is one of inferiority and hardship to the point of discardment and segragation. And it starts when they are born.
Will be uploading the storyboard in the next few weeks. Better late than never!
