About the Thud Bug
A living weapon of the Yuuzhan Vong, the thud bug is a fist-sized biot that a warrior hurls like a stone, its carapace hardening in flight into a battering projectile that strikes with numbing force. Bred rather than built, it answers to the invaders' contempt for machines, part of an organic arsenal that so unnerved the galaxy during their war of conquest. On impact it delivers a stunning blow meant to break bone and drop a foe rather than open a wound, and a trained warrior can loose several in quick succession. The bugs return or die spent depending on the strain. To the New Republic's defenders they were a horror precisely because they defied every assumption about how a weapon should work, alive and thrown and hitting like a hammer from thirty feet away.
