Much appreciated Dwilah. Any info helps, no matter how small.
Even an e-mail with a single line like "Wookies smell bad" helps. Well, try to avoid something with that subject matter. Go for the more interesteing bits that will help RPers new and current.

Hey the BEST place to get info on the playable races is the Ultimate Alien Anthology put out buy Wzards of the Coast for the Star Wars Roleplaying game. This not only list the palyable species in SWG but many more. It gives not only a breif history of the species, the species homeworld, but also sample names and what classes in the Star Wasrs roleplaying game the species has a tendency to gravitate twoards. There is also the Alien Ensyclopedia which has more to do with the species history than roleplaying the species.
Small Twi'lek fact brought to you by the X-Wing serries of books. Twi'lek's have a weird way of prononcing names. The way a name is pronunciates changes the names meaning so for example Jerrel Huntsmen pronounce the way it is broken up now may mean he who flies with wet pants or some thing. But if the pronunciation is change to Jer Relh Un'Tsmen it would mean some thing entirely difrent. However Twi'leks who have lived amongst human for very long learn to ingnore the suttle difrences while those who have yet to leave their homeworld will always keep that inmind when taking to others. If the Twi'lek has a great amout of respect for the person he/she may even change the pronuciation to show respect choosing the less insulting verson of the name.

Here is a website I found a while back that allows you to enter in search stings for nearly everything about the Star Wars Univers. I have been using it occasionally for Weyune as it has alot of general information about the Twi'lek race.

I also picked up a copy of "A Guide to the Star Wars Univers" by Bill Slavicsek (revised to include info up to 'Phantom Menace') Published by Lucas Books of course. Its information is all based off the movies, novels, animated TV series, Comic books and alot of other sources.
