Adding to this buffet of scariness, the Star Wars franchise has unleashed its brand new cast of terrifying villains from its The High Republic multimedia initiative.
Star Wars: The High Republic will be released as a whole new line of adult novels, young adult novels, children’s books and comics, which will narrate the story of the galaxy some 200 years ago before The Phantom Menace when everything was very different.
“The seed for the vegetation-based villains came from a sketch by [legendary Star Wars concept artist] Iain McCaig in the early days of The High Republic’s development.”
If the Drengir weren’t enough to invoke terrifying nightmares, then you also have the ruthless marauders called The Nihil who are based in the Outer Rim and will be first introduced in The High Republic novel Light of the Jedi.
