Don't forget these races:

Zeltron: near human, powerful pheremones, passion for the arts, beautiful

Vratix: Insectoid race from Thyferra (where Bacta originated), jumping, medical skill bonus

Caridans: Natives of planet Carida (location of the Imperial military academy), high-G homeworld, tall and spindly, three fingers, merchants

These are from the official Star Wars RPG over at WOTC. I personally detest D20, but I regularly prowl D20 SW sites for stuff to convert to D6.

High G homeworld and Tall & Spindly?? Confused It should be the other way around, high gravity would make a race short and stocky.

Well, the pic of them in the Essential Guide to Planets and Moons is kinda a cross between the two. Stocky body atop spindly legs with spindly arms at their sides.

Yikes! This is getting a little much for a compilation of most-used player character races. Perhaps there is some way to sub-group them..?

My original idea was, if a player says for instance "I want to play a pilot", to be able to show him a list of species that might help him do just that with skill boni and special abilities.

Sub categories could be War-like races (i.e. Barabel), technologically advanced races (i.e. Verpines), spacers (i.e. Duros), interesting special abilities (i.e. Ugors)...

What do you think? Any suggestions for a few, limited categories? I wouldn't want 40 species in 30 sub-sections...
