Aurra isn’t a Nightsister? Hounds Tooth isn’t a cargo ship?

Aurra Sing looks like a Nightsister. If she’s not, then what is she? Maybe she should be. That would be cool.

If Slave I is a cargo ship, (for the Cargo Contraband event that just happened) then Hounds Tooth is also a cargo ship. I guarantee Slave I is smaller than Hounds Tooth, and Hounds Tooth literally has a cargo bay full of Wookiee pelts and sort of a throne in the center.

Thanks for Hounds Tooth though, it’s a much stronger tank than Biggs Darklighters X-Wing, which should be called Red 3 by the way.

Please change.

    Aurra’s mother was human, but we don’t know what species her father was. She’s not a nightsister.

    Are there any examples of Nightsisters that weren't born in Dathomir?

    A cult may limit itself to members of one race / species:
    * all members of the cult are the same race / species, but
    * not all members of that race / species are part of the cult

    I guess I always thought Nightsister was more of an affiliation than it was a race.

    That's a fine dictionary definition. I thought the point made was that just because Aurra is human doesn't mean she's not a Nightsister. So I'll rephrase...

    Are Nightsisters a cult where "all members of the cult are the same race / species, but not all members of that race / species are part of the cult"?

    If so, wouldn't that answer pretty conclusively answer OP's question?

    Nightsister is an order of force users (like jedi and the sith are) from planet Dathomir. All members of Nightsisters are Dathomirians. Aurra Sing is half Human. Her father is maybe dathomirian, we just do not know.

    If it makes anyone feel better, I can definitely assure you that Aurra is not a cargo ship and the Hounds Tooth is not a Nightsister. :D

    There’s a joke in there somewhere about cargo that I’d get suspended for actually making...

    They’re both part of the male race from there. Which lives separately from the Amazonian witches but I always assumed must have sex with the Night Sisters in order to procreate.

    Do the Nightsisters procreate with Dathomirian males like Darth Maul? If so, why do none of the Nightsisters have horns considering Devil Horns is usually a dominant gene?

    Lol. Can anyone even explain why there’s an antenna protruding from her skull?

    Characters are snapshots. The Asajj we have in-game is from before she was a bounty hunter.

    Aurra has a variety of cybernetic augmentations. There's even a computer built into her brain.
    Still not a he.

    Feel I should clarify this: Maul, Savage and the Nightsisters are darthomirian zabrak (a localised subspecies of zabrak, see eeth koth for the alternative). The Nightsisters and Nightbrothers clans do interbreed, and originally some of the Nightsisters were human, which is why their appearance differs from normal zabrak (no horns on females, for instance). It's also stated iirc in the clone wars TV series that the Nightsister magicks are not force use, but legit sorcery.

    That's... not really what it says. And they go into more detail in Dark Disciple.

    Nightsister magic is Force use, drawing on both sides. The Nightsisters have a different relationship with the Force, therefore it manifests differently, and Dathomir is a powerful vergence in the Force, which lets them do some weird stuff. In the parlance of their Force tradition, they refer to their methods as magic, but they were aware of the Force as the same concept as identified by some other traditions.
    Still not a he.

    On her homeworld of Dathomir, Talzin lived as a shaman and Clan Mother of the Nightsisters—a coven of Force-sensitive witches who used magicks to manipulate the wilderness around them and rule their male counterparts, the Nightbrothers.
    This is from the first paragraph of Talzin’s Wookieepedia page which says that they were indeed force-sensitive, but they did also use magick.

    Answer to your cargo ship question.

    Wonder why that info isn’t here. Perplexing.
