Vornskrs

I read a Star Wars novel way back in early 90's and
I remember that there was a species of animal in it
that I think was called Voornksyyrs. (Spelling?)

Is that what they're called? I think they were pets
of the Noghri.

How they were describes basically made it sound like
they were like a Pitbull-type creature with a whip-like tail.

Does anyone know about this?

Meet the Vornskr. Talon Karrde kept them as pets (Thrawn Trilogy).

 

As far as I know they were Talon karrde's pets, they come from Myrkr...and are force sensetive.

 

I've always liked this one better.

The vornskrs are native to Myrkr and are Force sensitive, so they usually want to attack Force-users. That's why the Ysalamiri can project the Force-bubble, so the Vornskyrs have trouble hunting them. Karrde had two domesticated Vornskrs names Sturm and Drang.
There was something about the Yuuzhan Vong using them to hunt Jedi, but I don't know much about that.






Nice pics, BTW.

 

Voxyn, to be exact. Nasty critters, they used Vornskrs as a genetic template to create them, made a hybrid with one of their own creatures.

QFT!!!

 

Once again, my peeps roll up on the set and
provide me with the 411.

Map props. Mad props to all my peeps.

 

voxyn > vornskr

 

I wonder how the the voxyn would fare against some of the Sith alchemy created creatures?

 

Sith Alchemy creatures would fare horribly, due to the fact that Voxyn are intended to combat force related things...

 

I'd be a cool fight to see, though. like Godzilla vs King Kong.

 

So are terentatek...
