SNEEVEL

	mane around their neck, obscuring their large ears.  They have a
	large jaw with short lower tusks and a small pig-like nose.

Notable Personalities: Ben Quadrinaros, this short Toong is known as the
	only one of his race to pilot a podracer.  He only did so when

	quad-podracer, he did not even get off the starting 
	line.  Incidentally, his power coupling was mistakenly sabotaged

Traits: With 6 prehensile limbs to control, Xextos are very good at doing
	different things with each limb at the same time.  This makes

Appearance: Thin and spidery, the grey-and-white-skinned Xextos have a
	tiny torso, just big enough to connect 4 arms and 2 legs (all
	with 4 long, opposable digits).  Their long neck connects their
	torso to a small, round head that has a thin mouth and two round,
	black eyes.
Notable Personalities: Gasgano, a famous and good podracer who was ranked
	second after Sebulba and raced for Gardulla the 
	Hutt. (Status: Alive; after gaining 2nd place by the lap two,
	Gasgano dropped in back for some reason or another.)

	spidery fingers and toes.  They gain +1D to perform fine motor
	skills (such as picking pockets, surgery, or fine tool operation),

Size: 0.5-1.5 meters
Move: 8/12
