Amazons

A near-human species native to the planet Alfard, who stand head and shoulders above baseline humans and seem to be entirely female. The Amazons were a pre-industrial civilization focused on pastoral traditions and divided culturally into several dozen clans named after important desert fauna. Nomadic by nature they were resistant to intrusion from Off World Mining corp colonists, Separatist Battle droids, the Grand Army of the Republic, and the Imperial stormtrooper corps. Imperial treaties relegated vast swathes of the uninhabitable deserts for the Amazons to live in, and forbid the trade of technology and weapons with them, which was routinely ignored.

It is widely rumored but until recently unconfirmed that the Amazons had their own city, Aghat, carved out of the mountains of Alphecca's western continent. The ancient city was apparently a neutral area where all clans congregated to trade and raise their children. It was ruled directly by a council of important leaders from different clans, and also under the rule of a mysterious figure known as the Queen Mother.

Many Amazons believed in an animistic religion, attributing the power of the divine in natural phenomena, geographical features, and animals. Most tribes generally had a single totem animal, which was believed to match the rise and fall of their own fortunes.
