#Dathomir Headcanons
Text
The "left in a hurry" vibes of the old village following the Nightsister genocide makes the whole place into a graveyard. Not to say that Dathomir, baseline, isn't a thriving microcosm of decay, but the prevalence of the Dark Side in the place makes the rot take a little quicker. The world's a little hungrier than most. A little more determined to take what remains of the ships and skiffs and structures picked clean by Nightbrother hands to salvage and conserve those few things that still serve a purpose.
They don't take much. Too many memories attached to the world that was before Maul arrived -- before construction began up the Peak. The prevailing notion that so much of those artifacts are cursed or haunted keeps them from over-reliance on the old ways.
Maul encourages the shifting paradigm:
A red dawn rises over Dathomir these days, and everything left draped in shadow, he insists, is better off buried anyway.

Excited to see what wares the Nightmarket has today! Trick or treat!
House of Night Headcanons: On Death and the Afterlife among the Nightsisters of Dathomir
Warnings: Death, resurrection, zombification and death preparations, death rituals
There are twin sculptures that guard the gates to the Nightsister's mortuary. Women, of course. Deities, in fact. Not gods in the literal sense because Dathomir has always had two of them (one has Fangs and one has Wings, if you remember) but these two Nightsisters were once great warriors elevated to god-status. The Nightbrothers don't remember the story. It's not theirs to own, and any territories leftover from the war are left to ruin and decay. Good riddance a lot of them say.
The structure itself is carved directly from one of the mountains, and when you pass through the doors, all is silence. Everything is dark. In the aftermath of the Battle of Dathomir, no one goes there. The Nightbrothers believe it to be haunted. Not surprising considering how superstitious they are -- some places are off limits. The Lair where the Nightsisters lived, for example, but especially the mortuary where they prepared their dead for the afterlife.
You might be asking at this point, how do they know about it if it was forbidden in the first place? Nightbrothers were servants, so it's inevitable that Nightbrother hands carried the Nightsister dead for preparation. They never touched them. Those rituals were reserved for anyone with magick, and being bereft of the ichor and the power to control it, a Nightbrother wouldn't be involved in the process. That doesn't mean that those carrying the bodies never spied the goings on of those rituals -- someone had to be curious. Someone would return to tell the tale to the other brothers around the campfire in the flickering light, when the darkness crept in.
The Nightsisters were familiar with making their own graves, the structures used to lift the funerary pods and the egg-shaped coffins themselves. Rancor leather and sinew stitching, wrapped with red linens -- red, the colour of blood which was sacred to their Fanged God, who granted them the power of resurrection. built exactly to resemble their sacred gravethorns, it's no surprise that the pods resemble wombs, because these women went to the slumber of death knowing they were awaiting their rebirth.
Sure, the bodies were prepared with sacred oils infused with the Water of Life to anoint them, holding skin and bone together to prevent decomposition, and tucked into a slumbering position into their coffins so lovingly built to protect them in their afterlife.
But what the Nightbrothers didn't realize is that preparations for their death and return came long before a Nightsister departed this life. The ritual began while they were living: a commitment ceremony of sorts, and preparations. Lessons. Spells and rituals to better prepare them to be called back so that when they died, their spirit would be ready to rise to their true purpose and vocation. The House of Night was a school first: it taught the Nightsisters how to die with honour so they could return to fulfill their oaths to their sisters: they would rise to protect Dathomir when summoned.

Young Nightbrothers are taught self-sufficiency from an early age. They're taught to hunt and preserve food, but they also learn the land they live on... right down to the plants that might harm or help them.
Bacta is an expensive product and hard to come by, living so far off the hyperlanes, but ask any Nightbrother at the age of five which leaves might draw poison from a wound when made into a poultice, or which roots to decoct to make the strongest potency of bloodroot tea to cure a fever, and he'll tell you where the strongest can be harvested.
The Nightbrothers of Dathomir look after their own, because no one else will do it for them.

Winters on Dathomir were cold…
In the carved out villages upon the mountains the Nightbrothers knew of the incoming freeze that would soon arrive at the threshold.
The red mountain ranges hidden under white. From a far distance one would call it beautiful for those living through the harsh cold it was a reminder to keep prepared.
Life in the Fortress was no expectation to preparedness. It was not the controlled palace of Sundari. Everything must be readied. Everything at reach. The harsh winds made flying out dangerous. Weeks where the fortress would be kept under falling snow and wind that blew.
Nights that were cold. For those outsiders who followed it was not ideal.
For a certain crimson Zabrak’s Starlight this was the case and it was certainly not allowed by any means.
Zabraks hunted down the mighty beasts with furs to keep away the bitter cold. His starlight’s was wrapped about in one, Maul had gone out to seek it out himself. Careful preparation and determination to ensure his beloved would not feel the winter chill.
Another log tossed into the hearth, his Starlight wrapped in the fur cape enjoying the relief of the warm fire.
Maul ensured his Starlight’s comfort. Sitting close and wrapping an arm about them. His Star made a soft sound. Zabraks ran warm. A warmth his Star sought.
—-
As the night came as did the winter cold. His Star pressed to his chest and the cape about them. Best to keep warm in this manner.
A small shiver and Maul holds his Star closer, his hearts beating alongside theirs.
“Are you cold?”
His Starlight shakes their head, “ Not when I’m in your arms, my Dawn.” They huddle closer, “never when I’m here.”
As the fire in the hearth fades another flares. The soft sounds of the two lovers locked in embrace.

Okay so how about some more lore/HC’s.
Death is named Ōlen and he is the brother who walks in your shadow. However, life is the mother of both; her heartbeat is the first one to leap to action, and give breath to your own. For this reason, the larger and stronger heart of most Dathomiri is called their Tizh.
Life is often called Tālno Tizh in the old stories, as she is the Great Mother from whom all things are born. She is the one who guides and guards, providing strength and speed to survive.
Tizh and Ōlen share a love for their family and they work together. To the Dathomiri, Death is not the end. Death is only another chapter. And Life will press your hand into that of Death someday, when you are ready to begin it.

Nightsister Mates
So, from what I've seen in The Clone Wars, Nightsisters have their pick of the Nightbrothers via a selection ritual. The chosen Nightbrother then serves as both slave and mate.
For my headcanon, Nightsisters are allowed to keep or discard mates as they like. For some, they find one that pleases them for a lifetime and they keep them for life. Others have many mates over their lifetimes.
The Nightbrother mates help keep the home and raise the children, or whatever it's decided are their responsibilities. They also serve as a personal guard to their Nightsister, protecting her above themselves at any cost.
The male children are raised along with the females until they are weaned and walking, basically toddlers. Then they're sent back to the Nightbrother villages, where they will await their turn to earn a chance to be a Nightsister's mate.
The Selection Ritual doesn't necessarily need to be to the death, but it depends on the wishes of the Sister who has come to find a mate.
The fact that Nightsisters have so much power in a sexual relationship has lead to an interesting biological development. The very act of intercourse makes them fertile, as the act typically means they have chosen a mate who pleases them. Of course they have many ways to prevent unwanted pregnancies.

Random headcanon I think the Feral that Savage killed was a fake created with magic or something. It makes no sense to me for Mother Talzin end her own bloodline so easily just to help an estranged nightsister get revenge on Dooku. Even if they're not actually her sons, they are still Maul's blood, potentially powerful Force users. She was already sending one of them away on a purpose he would likely not return from, why kill the other and destroy a promising family.
#hm i should make an original post tag#star wars#headcanon#feral opress#like. don't tell me savage was expected to survive the fight with dooku. he was a pawn. a sacrifice.#also it would be funny if feral was just vibing back home while his brothers were out there killing and dying and suffering#but seriously i do think it doesn't make much sense for him to be killed as a test#the clone wars cartoon and star wars in general is pretty racist against nightbrothers (and dathomirians in general)‚#calling them monsters and savages and stuff. but they are wrong. they're not even aggressive they're just defending themselves#they have no air defense on dathomir they have to intercept strangers on ground. and sure that looks aggressive but it's just normal#i wouldn't want to let just anyone be roaming around my planet unchecked either. especially not when there's a whole war going on out there

Scuff marks on Dathomir's gnarled trees indicate areas where young Nightbrothers rubbed their sprouting horns. Bark rubbed off the trunks have no particular patterns, but the placement and regular occurrence of those marks suggest discomfort from rapid horn growth at an early age.
The marks are often found three to five feet off the ground.

Darkness was what he knew, he had been raised in it. Windowless rooms and only knowing of stars as far off coordinates.
Not of light or shimmer of the burning lights in the sky.
There was darkness only, not even a flickering candle to give a glimpse of light.
He expected the same upon returning to the planet of his birth. What would one expect from a planet seeped in the dark side of the Force?
It’s upon the first nights he discovers deeps in the caverns of the “home”.
Orbs of golden amber sprouting from the walls and crevices. An almost Gentle glow that contrasted with the harshness of the crimson world.
Savage had told him of the mushlings that grew, spreading without restraint. How the Nightclans gathered and pummeled them into ichor for their markings and writings.
Never about ones that glowed. Glowed in the deep darkness, where the sun couldn’t reach. Maul followed their path. Curious as despite the deeper you reached there was still light. Even the slightest glow.

wait come back I am ready to hear about zabrak organs and zabrak men giving birth
alright, but you asked for this!
as a blanket statement, it is my general sci-fi/star wars belief that alien species’ organs and genitals should change according to 1) the need of the species involved 2) the specifics of their environment, and 3) whatever i personally think is super fucking cool/funny/and/or sexy. the headcanons below are broken up into two categories: “environmental/survival centric”, “organs used for communication”, “sex and reproduction/this is hot, let’s do that!”
with that in mind, let’s chat zabrak!
ENVIRONMENTAL/SURVIVAL-BASED ORGAN HEADCANONS
the zabrak homeworld, iridonia, is described as an arid and tough landscape, presumably either a desert or with desert-like biomes, so i based my zabrak headcanons on desert species, namely reptiles-- like the horned toad lizard, one of my inspirations for zabrak headcanons!
(doesn’t it look kinda like a zabrak with those horns??)
like the horned toad lizard, i imagine all zabrak are born with naturally thicker and denser skin to insulate their bodies and reduce moisture loss. they are not apex predators, but essentially low to mid-level predators. (however, because of how hostile iridonia and dathomir are, they’re fearsome out in the wider galaxy, but no worse than a pussycat back home)
as low-level predators/prey animals, they have evolved several organs and adaptions to help them stay alive:
tapetum lucidum for nightvision, as they were/are either naturally nocturnal or crepuscular, to escape the heat
EYE SLITS. because i said so.
a translucent brille, or eye scale, that protects the eyes from wind damage
a small organ that stores an emergency portion of water, like a camel;
a second bladder bag because all that extra pee’s gotta go somewhere;
a keen olfactory system that helps them hunt and “taste” the air for water and prey;
and, because they evolved among predators MUCH larger than them with even keener senses of smell and eyesight, they have small glands in their waterlines that emits foul-tasting fluid or blood, to deter predators. just like horned toad lizards. because it makes me laugh.
this foul fluid does not seem to work on the massive carnivorous birds of iridonia and dathomir. thankfully, they’ve got horns to avoid getting snatched by the back of their neck like a naughty puppy and dropped in a nest
potentially, it’s possible for their horns to have blood vessels but no nerve endings, as a means of regulating heat, which is vital in a desert/arid climate
okay this one is mostly a joke but i love imagining zabrak with very rough palms and feet. in these places, their dense skin hardens into something closer to scaling, so they can get purchase on the many sheer cliff faces and rocky terrains of iridonia and, later, dathomir. basically they are capable of scaling walls hands-free like a goddam gecko. imagine waking up in the middle of the night terrified to TWO GLOWING EYES GLARING DOWN AT YOU FROM YOUR CEILING and then hearing a quiet “i threw up.” that is so fucking funny.
SOCIAL ORGANS/BODY PARTS
a larger voicebox (or perhaps a small, secondary voicebox lower in the throat) that allows them to purr. purring is largely involuntary, and indicates safety, pleasure, satisfaction, or extreme joy. they can purr and talk at the same time. no, maul does not know he can do this, because he has never been happy enough to purr in his entire life. this voicebox also enables a high-pitched chirping noise used by infants to indicate distress, because zabraks do not cry naturally unless they are incredibly ill or in dangerous levels of emotional distress. i’m talking “dying of heartbreak” levels, for a few tears.
FUN COOL SEX/ROMANCE/STUFF ORGANS
i haven’t fully decided on this section, admittedly, but generally thinking, i find giving near-humanoid species “standard” human genitalia incredibly boring and wack, so these ideas are like... vague, hand-wavey brainstorms, more than hard headcanons.
zabraks bite to show affection, and claim mates. they also scent-mark territory/favorite people using subcutaneous pheromone glands at the base of their horns, under their chins and along their necks, and the back of their wrists. however they’re also very uhhhhh private, so no zabrak is going to tell you this. they’re just going to rub their face all over your pillow and fresh laundry and hand it to you, and you’ll walk around wearing their scent, none the wiser, wondering why your other zabrak friends are giving you a wide berth all of a sudden
at one point i was very into zabraks having hollow canines that could spit fluid and/or be used in marking a mate by biting them and injecting pheromone into the bite, but i don’t know anymore. i like it conceptually though.
generally speaking, most zabrak can both fertilize and be fertilized by a partner. (secondary sex characteristics such as mammary glands, horn placement and presentation are used to determine gender)
on iridonia, who carries a child is governed more by personal preference and cultural influence. on dathomir, only nightbrothers give birth. nightsisters (who are not zabrak) center femininity, among other things, in their idealogy, but since birth-giving and child-rearing are not tied to a specific sex or gender presentation among dathomirian nightsisters nor zabraks, it is not considered feminine. nightbrothers are assigned all tasks considered below nightsisters’ attention, including hard labor and menial tasks, and it’s not hard to see why they’d include bearing and raising children as falling under both those umbrellas.
like in humans, the pregnant zabrak body readies itself for pregnancy by stimulating mammaries and other processes to care for children. child-rearing and child-care are considered masculine traits and behaviors among the nightbrothers. sea-horse clan for life.
because nightbrothers are largely left alone and only have each other, child-birth and child-rearing are a communal affair, because they don’t get to have mates of their own. they are claimed by nightsisters, impregnated, and left. nightbrothers are close, but there is always a degree of distance between those outside their immediate family, because they know at some point they will have to kill each other, or watch each other die. but with young children, nightbrothers often carry them around on slings, keeping them close at hand, always in arm’s reach, because dathomir is an incredibly hostile planet, and a youngling wandering off even a few feet is likely to be snatched by one of the many opportunistic hunter animals populating the planet.
