 |

"you stuck up, half witted, scruffy looking nurf herder". We know that Leia doesn't care to much for buff herders, being a princess can we assume that are of a lower status in the galaxy. Has there been much discussion of what nurf are (I'm assuming a source.of meat and leather) and what would think a nurf herder PC, NPC would look like.

Wow. It looks like they went to great details to make the animals as unpleasant as possible. Frankly, I think that's unnecessary. Take a hike through the Carpathian mountains if you ever happen to be jaunting through Eastern Europe. Pass through an area of the map marked by a sheepfold. Note the care the shepherd takes for his own personal grooming, making sure he looks good and presentable for the sheep.
I'm sure in more industrialized, or ranch-style sheep farming is a bit different... but... yeah... I didn't really have to imagine the nerf being so unpleasant to imagine its herder as looking a bit scraggly.

Are there a lot in the way of pleasant animals in the SWU? Tauntauns smell bad on the outside and worse on the inside, Rancors eat you, Sarlaccs eat you but take a thousand years to do it, Eopies fart then glare at you afterwards, everything underwater on Naboo wants to eat you when they aren't busy eating each other, banthas and dewbacks just kinda stand there and look constipated... A quadrupedal herbivore that is dirty and smells bad and has an attitude to match seems to fit right in.

That is an interesting point.
If you are not going to ride it or kill it, or ride it and kill it, Star Wars doesn't seem to have much use for it.
Star Wars needs tribbles. Nah who am I kidding, they'd just kill them and eat them. I can see Chewbaca scoffing down tribbles like they were candy. |

This has got to be the funniest thing on the board in a long time.
