- "What's got you so riled up today?"
"Blasted scazz stole my blaster. I got punished by the commander."
"Well no need to be mad at me about it. I didn't steal your blaster." - ―Two stormtroopers discuss scazz
Scazz were subterranean, verminous creatures that lived on the planet Zeffo. They could communicate hostile intent from the top of their heads to the end of their tails and had oversized mouths used for surprise attacks.[2] They were vulnerable in bright light due to their poor vision, often residing in shady or dark areas[1] however would be a serious threat in large numbers.[2] While visiting Zeffo during the Imperial Era, the former Jedi Padawan Cal Kestis was attacked by several scazz. Their meat was considered to be edible.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
Scazz first appeared in the 2019 video game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, developed by Respawn Entertainment.[1] During development, the creature needed to fill the role of being quick and repugnant so that the player wouldn't feel sympathy for it as an enemy. The development team eventually settled on a bipedal rat. Scazz concept art was done by artist Jean-Francois Rey.[2]
