The Miraluka were a Near-Human, Force-sensitive species.
Biology and appearance[]
They differed from Humans in that they lacked eyes, instead bearing only vestigial eye sockets, and perceived the environment around them through the Force instead of regular vision. This vision was so strong that if a Miralukan looked upon a Jedi or Sith they could "see" the Force radiation off them. The strength of a Miralukan's connection to the Force varied by individual. Miraluka, as Near-Humans, could interbreed with baseline humanity. Humans with Miraluka blood included Krynda and Lucien Draay. It was said that such mating would result in unknown difficulties.
Society and culture[]
Miraluka were a thoughtful, cautious, and deliberative species. They had little interest in personal gain or glory. For moral reasons, Miraluka hid their appearance by wearing a headband, a mask, or similar concealing headwear. As a Force-using species, Miraluka were often quite shocked if shown life not connected to the Force. The Miraluka that lived on Katarr were strong enough that even they felt the Battle of Malachor, though it is possible that they felt not only that battle.
Special Abilities[]
Force Sight: The Miraluka rely on their ability to percieve their surroundings by sensing the slight force vibrations emanated from all objects. In any location where the force is some way cloaked, the Miraluka are effectively blind.
