The Besalisk are humanoids with multiple sets of arms that come from the planet Ojom, a cold, oceanic world. Male Besalisks have a crest upon their heads and four arms, while females can have as many as eight arms.
A quick-witted and sociable people, Besalisk culture maintains a careful balance between settlements to minimise conflict. Names are often short and comprised of syllables that carry well in the cold weather conditions of their home planet.

Rurvind Dugg
Most business on Ojom happens above the planet on mobile space stations, one of which Rurvind Dugg manages. Affable and easy-going, Dugg can get as mean as a magma viper if station rules are broken. So don’t break them, unless you want all of your arms broken as well.
