Yeah I always wished we had seen an updated design in one of the sequels, we see a few in the background but not up close.

Much of that backstory was written in Tales from Mos Eisley. And it's my favorite story of all the books I've read. Not so much the world building, but the unique way it used a first-person narrative. They could have made a whole movie out of that story (or at least a good hour long episode of a TV show). But alas, Disney owns it now...

Better to get some Darkside points then let that thing learn the force and use a lightsaber.
In terms of Devaronian fire resistance I’ll assume that due to Devaron’s dense jungle landscape it was particularly susceptible to forest fires. As a result, the Devaronian’s developed fire resistance to survive said fires
@@gadielgonzalez2755 yeh burg just fuckin oded on sulphur so he could squat a fuckin blast door and eat a flamethrower. What a fuckin legend i hope this roid head satan comes back at some point in mandalorian

As for the forest fire theory, neat but once you consider the geology of the planet and then you look at data from our world’s jungles which probably have even less than this because there’s so much rain but generally a natural forest fire happens every 180 years. In a jungle this could be more like 400 years. Fire resistance isn’t going to help them every 400 years when one does happen.

It could just be a very tough hide, like I think the honey badger is resistant to flame, but just because they have a thick hide and deadend nerves, not because it specifically evolved to defend against fire.

Theory: this particular deveronian was acutely force sensitive in a way that gave him very, VERY minor force pyrokinesis. Which allowed him to eat the fire.
@@CGreyL3 definitely bad, very bad eggs. It was the SKYWALKERS that destroyed the Jedi and the sith, the SKYWALKERS that destroyed mortis, the SKYWALKERS that led to galactic civil war and resistance war, and a Skywalker (kylo) that punked out the eye of the webbish bog. Hell if you really think about it damn near all the deaths and planets destroyed between ep 1-9 is due to the decision of a Skywalker, a decision pertaining to a Skywalker, or a dispute between the SKYWALKERS themselves. Hell even palpatine was afraid of the skywalkers, Anakin from 1-3, Luke and kinda leia from 4-6, and kylo from 7-9.
The flame resistance could have something to do with the sulfur use that you mentioned before...perhaps frequent exposure to burning sulfur can allow a deveronian's body to ignore a certain degree of severe heat.
Technically speaking, Deveronians predated Tieflings by a lot (at least since the late 70s...Tieflings were not a thing until a decade or so ago). So it is D&D that copied Star Wars if anything.
Consider that they came from Planescape, NOT Spelljammer, it’s probably a mindset of “what if we make cambion, but playable” and boom, tiefling is born

Well, the guy Mandalorian was fight could easily been Force Sensitive. Force Feat: Reflect Energy. Also lifting a metal drop door like that is beyond normal bio physics only, Force empower person could do that. Devaronian are know to have a lot of Force Sensitives with their peoples.

Though the males might have thick skin to resist the claws of some of the creatures in the jungles which could make them resistant to fire, but not to the extent as shown in the Mandolorian.
I don't know about the others, but, extreme fire resistance, would be very helpful when foolishly hunting, in the middle of a forest fire, taking advantage of prey, in a state of panic. I forgot to ask, are the girls, & women fireproof?
@@Dead25m we are too used to only seeing forrest fires... in ..forrest, due to global stresses on thick and thin forrest forms dried out from direct and indirect mismanagement -especially from diverted rivers and streams. While truly more commonly in planes and forrests, it does happen a in jungles -though usually the less swamped or Amazonian ones.. like in Indiana..for an easy example.
@@Dead25m never denied that very Earthly fact...however, it still happens here on Earth.?mostly because of human causes. But the main subject, is that of another, indeed fictional world, that has apparently been subject to harshly regularly experiencing such problems.. even in marshlands. So...in conclusion, such "monsters", here on Earth, are more likely to be found, in deserts, and the central continental dryer forrest-or-field locations.
@@scottbraun2457 My entire point was that the jungle fires wouldn't be common enough to cause any real change in a species, in fact a severe fear of fire would be the appropriate change in a species. You may argue "but it's fiction", except that it's supposed to take place in our universe, so I think our physics are mostly applicable.
Consumers of sulfur as or like a drug could make them impervious to fire as they crave the burn inside and out. Their thick leather like skin could be thick enough that it takes focused super high temperature to burn or really effect them at all.
If their blood is as thick as it sounds, with 2 livers, it might denote that they also have a very sturdy "hide" which could lead to so resistance to fire for short periods of time.
Evolutionary it does't make sense that if they were primarily hunters that they would be overly aggressive, hunter species and especially nomadic ones tend to be more calculating.
8:35 i havnt looked through the comment section so sorry if someones already said it but the reason that burg could withstand that flamethrower was because of his species. As you said before they take "sulfur" and use it like a drug. Well sulfur is technically a by product of some sort of heat so theres a connection there. :) i could nerd out more but i cbf, enjoy
Their resistance to fire may simply be an ambient force ability they evolved over time. They are one of the most force sensitive species in the galaxy, it stands to reason they would possess some latent force shield ability that might be instinctual in nature, a form of natural tutiminus if you will, that protects them from energy but isn't controllable. As for why they have this ability? they live on a giant tree filled planet with oxygen... forrest fires would be a HUGE and frequent threat to any species, and just like earths forrests, the species evolved way to defend against and even thrive from fire. Throw the force into the mix and using it to protect from fire makes sense.
A fun bit of Devaronian head cannon. Since Star Wars was a long time ago and far, far away, I like to think of some Devaronians reaching Earth thousands of years ago, meeting early Humans who they had a negative interaction that led Humans to base some ideals of devils off of them, without remembering why. The Devaronians left for more adventures elsewhere. But Man remembers. Arthur Clarke wrote "Gaurdian Angels" which was expanded into the novel "Childhoods End", on similar themes.
they should have made the devaronians evolve on a stereotypical firey or dessert world. i give points on trying to think out the box but yea it keeps stuff like them having fire resistance make no sense and other cool fire/heat based traits they could've had.
Devaronian culture seems similar to Dathomirian culture; the main difference being that Devaronian males more often than not deserved to be treated the way they were treated by the females. Dathomirian culture is like some kind of flipped version of what feminists want you to think human society is irl, except a bit worse, too. To the nightsisters, the nightbrothers were barely more than sex slaves who all lived on the other side of the planet.
I'd imagine the flame resistance is just hinting at male Devaronians having exceptionally thick, durable skin, not actual flame resistance. That would explain why the Devaronians would evolve away the fur on their males, because while fur is a better armor than human skin, it wouldn't help as much for Devaronians. And who knows, they probably had truly abominable threats to deal with if they had to evolve such drastic sexual dimorphism.
This is so interesting!! Are there any devaronian Jedi that you know of?? Canon or legends. Can you continue this series and explore the other species that we saw in the Mos Eisley cantina?? ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
He's a footnote of a reference, but in the Consular storyline's first chapter of SWTOR there's a Devaronian male Jedi in the Noetikon device. Can't recall his name, but there's that.
They probably gain this resistance to fire during the primordial era where they started to evolve and evolved to survive hell but it started to cool down and life appeared
Ah, Vilmarh Grahrk will enjoy this bombad much, yes. 3:21: So, is that video out already or not? 6:36: And the worst part? The Empire actually ordered him to just move on, not to take any prisoners with him, and not to leave any of his men to guard said prisoners. He followed those exact words in a so wrong way, much to the Empire's surprising anger. Good thing there were no Devaronians in the Bounty Hunter video game.
Interesting thing about Deveronians learned in the book Star Wars: Death Troopers, their blood is silver based, and thus they can become easily addicted to certain kinds of drugs which eventually cause liver damage.
I remember one I met as a mercenary on star wars old republic. Chased him all around tattooine, was fun, burned, blasted and probably more to his fake body. And got a fellow merc as well.
Fire resistance//maybe their thick blood and sulfur ingestion perhaps mixed with ancient past which might have been vulcanism mixed in with the Jungles? just a shot in the dark.
It's possible that a planet like Devaron would have conditions similar to the Earth during the Carboniferous, during which forest fires were more common due to a higher oxygen content in the atmosphere.
I have to be crazy i SWEAR there was at least 2 big channels breaking down the Mando prison escape episode that said dude was a Zabrak that "they don't all have horns like maul" Obviously as a cloneware's fan II knew better and called them out but I can't remember where it was now and it's making me mad every time I see a deveronian
No mention of Vilmarh Grahrk? His whole philosophy on trying to harm a jedi is bad luck is what Hondo follows, and he made one of the best counterparts to Voss's storyline in Legends (yes, comment is late to the party)
My theory of why in the mandalorian one of them was able to shrug off the flame thrower. Its not due to them being immune but its a mix between thick skin and sulfur blood. The thick skin in it self acts similar to natural leather armor which if compared to leather here on earth burns at temperatures of 212c. Since its thicker skin it can be assumed temperature required would be slightly higher. Now about the sulfur. Sulfur on earth Melts at 115c and burns at 200c. Now add the thick leather like skin with the sulfur blood.....plus any sulfur he might of taken before the mission (which augments strength and speed) its safe to say would make him somewhat resistant to hot temperatures (plus we have no idea how hot it is on their planet or if their planet canon got changed). What about mandos flame thrower? Thats hard to say cause earths flame throwers reach about 1000c and is known to set many things ablaze however if we watch both the mandalorian and Jangos (and mandalorians in clone war) flamethrower they don't appear to be as hot like your typical flamethrower as both mandos flame thrower cooked the storm trooper inside his armor but only burnt his armor (which if it was 1000c I would assume would melt the stormtroopers armor) and Jango only burning maces cloak but appeared hardly to affect mace at all (even by jumping the fire would of atleast left some burns on him before falling back down into the arena). I also don't think mandalorian flamethrower are not 1000c os because where its mounted. Yes a mandalorians armor would protect him from his own fire however even armor heats up eventually and not all mandos have beskar armor so you would want a wrist flame thrower that can burn but not burn through your own armor as well. Now this is just a theory so if I missed something or I'm wrong about something please feel free to reply to this comment all I ask is be educated not belittled if I'm wrong. Thank you.

I don't know about the others, but, extreme fire resistance, would be very helpful when foolishly hunting, in the middle of a forest fire, taking advantage of prey, in a state of panic.
I forgot to ask, are the girls, & women fireproof?
A forest fire in a jungle? Not very likely, not likely enough to cause a change at least.
@@Dead25m we are too used to only seeing forrest fires... in ..forrest, due to global stresses on thick and thin forrest forms dried out from direct and indirect mismanagement -especially from diverted rivers and streams. While truly more commonly in planes and forrests, it does happen a in jungles -though usually the less swamped or Amazonian ones.. like in Indiana..for an easy example.
@@scottbraun2457 Jungles are the least fire-prone ecosystems on earth though, which is my point.
@@Dead25m never denied that very Earthly fact...however, it still happens here on Earth.?mostly because of human causes. But the main subject, is that of another, indeed fictional world, that has apparently been subject to harshly regularly experiencing such problems.. even in marshlands.
So...in conclusion, such "monsters", here on Earth, are more likely to be found, in deserts, and the central continental dryer forrest-or-field locations.
@@scottbraun2457 My entire point was that the jungle fires wouldn't be common enough to cause any real change in a species, in fact a severe fear of fire would be the appropriate change in a species. You may argue "but it's fiction", except that it's supposed to take place in our universe, so I think our physics are mostly applicable.
I know this is a totally unrelated to the video. But we need a compilation or ranking video of 212th soldiers being stupidly suicidal.
Consumers of sulfur as or like a drug could make them impervious to fire as they crave the burn inside and out. Their thick leather like skin could be thick enough that it takes focused super high temperature to burn or really effect them at all.
If their blood is as thick as it sounds, with 2 livers, it might denote that they also have a very sturdy "hide" which could lead to so resistance to fire for short periods of time.
I kept expecting Burg to say "There can only be one!"
I like that you put in the video the fight between bearg and the mando
Always brought me joy killing the bartender in the jekk jekk tar
Great video thanks for clearing up that one part in the Mandalorian with the flamethrower that part confused me but it did look cool.
Maybe Burg wasn’t immune to fire, he was just having too much fun to care about the pain of loosing a layer of skin.
Could they interbreed with humans ?
Revenant makes sense since their near human
No they’re different species it will be a mutated fuck
@@KaiCross exactly
*HENTAI JOINS CHAT*
Evolutionary it does't make sense that if they were primarily hunters that they would be overly aggressive, hunter species and especially nomadic ones tend to be more calculating.
8:35 i havnt looked through the comment section so sorry if someones already said it but the reason that burg could withstand that flamethrower was because of his species. As you said before they take "sulfur" and use it like a drug. Well sulfur is technically a by product of some sort of heat so theres a connection there. :) i could nerd out more but i cbf, enjoy
Their resistance to fire may simply be an ambient force ability they evolved over time. They are one of the most force sensitive species in the galaxy, it stands to reason they would possess some latent force shield ability that might be instinctual in nature, a form of natural tutiminus if you will, that protects them from energy but isn't controllable. As for why they have this ability? they live on a giant tree filled planet with oxygen... forrest fires would be a HUGE and frequent threat to any species, and just like earths forrests, the species evolved way to defend against and even thrive from fire. Throw the force into the mix and using it to protect from fire makes sense.
all that because Lucas wanted more aliens in the cantina and a guy in the back told him, he had a spare devil mask
Love em but they do not get enough screen time nor time in comics.
A fun bit of Devaronian head cannon.
Since Star Wars was a long time ago and far, far away, I like to think of some Devaronians reaching Earth thousands of years ago, meeting early Humans who they had a negative interaction that led Humans to base some ideals of devils off of them, without remembering why. The Devaronians left for more adventures elsewhere. But Man remembers.
Arthur Clarke wrote "Gaurdian Angels" which was expanded into the novel "Childhoods End", on similar themes.
'he loved music but not as much as murder' oh my god the delivery made me chuckle
3:48 devaronian taking in a big wiff of rotten eggs: aw yeah! That's tje good shit!
I think the Devaronians are an interesting species to say the least!!! And I’d love to dive deeper into their culture!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
they should have made the devaronians evolve on a stereotypical firey or dessert world. i give points on trying to think out the box but yea it keeps stuff like them having fire resistance make no sense and other cool fire/heat based traits they could've had.
Hellboy's FAMM
Devaronian culture seems similar to Dathomirian culture; the main difference being that Devaronian males more often than not deserved to be treated the way they were treated by the females. Dathomirian culture is like some kind of flipped version of what feminists want you to think human society is irl, except a bit worse, too. To the nightsisters, the nightbrothers were barely more than sex slaves who all lived on the other side of the planet.
I'd imagine the flame resistance is just hinting at male Devaronians having exceptionally thick, durable skin, not actual flame resistance. That would explain why the Devaronians would evolve away the fur on their males, because while fur is a better armor than human skin, it wouldn't help as much for Devaronians. And who knows, they probably had truly abominable threats to deal with if they had to evolve such drastic sexual dimorphism.
8:27 didn't you also say they use sulfur as a drug?
Prince Oberyn..
Nice nod. The Viper was one of my favorites
When you talked about where the devaronians were from I was getting serious dougsdale dimmidome vibes
This is so interesting!! Are there any devaronian Jedi that you know of?? Canon or legends. Can you continue this series and explore the other species that we saw in the Mos Eisley cantina?? ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
He's a footnote of a reference, but in the Consular storyline's first chapter of SWTOR there's a Devaronian male Jedi in the Noetikon device. Can't recall his name, but there's that.
Hell yea! Devaronians are a badass species! Kinda bummed that Villie isn’t canon anymore.
next please do a vid on zabraks
They probably gain this resistance to fire during the primordial era where they started to evolve and evolved to survive hell but it started to cool down and life appeared
I would would also be in fear if the devil just casually walked into my local cantina.
Love how the newest addition to this species is the voice of mr crabs clancy browns the fucking man
Purge them in HOLY FIRE
Can you do one of these on the werewolf species?
9:05 AAAH HA HA HA HA HA!!! I DIDN'T SEE IT BEFORE. YEAH, THAT, THAT'S GONNA HURT TOMORROW, NO MATTER WHAT. SULFUR, MAN, GOOD STUFF!
that was a criminal misrepresentation of Malloc's story.
"The ins and outs of the procreation process of the devaronians" HA
That devaronian just might have had a high pain tolerance, he did seem to be a walking tank.
What if Maul was as tall as Savage Opress and had horns like these? Or what if Marka Ragnos was half Deveronion, not half human?
They just never met Gault
Ah, Vilmarh Grahrk will enjoy this bombad much, yes.
3:21: So, is that video out already or not?
6:36: And the worst part? The Empire actually ordered him to just move on, not to take any prisoners with him, and not to leave any of his men to guard said prisoners.
He followed those exact words in a so wrong way, much to the Empire's surprising anger.
Good thing there were no Devaronians in the Bounty Hunter video game.
Interesting thing about Deveronians learned in the book Star Wars: Death Troopers, their blood is silver based, and thus they can become easily addicted to certain kinds of drugs which eventually cause liver damage.
I remember one I met as a mercenary on star wars old republic.
Chased him all around tattooine, was fun, burned, blasted and probably more to his fake body.
And got a fellow merc as well.
Geetsly how much Dungeons and Dragons have you played?
Fire resistance//maybe their thick blood and sulfur ingestion perhaps mixed with ancient past which might have been vulcanism mixed in with the Jungles? just a shot in the dark.
Thanks ! I've wondered about that since I saw one in the First Star wars at the Bar !
Perhaps forest fires on Deviron were common enough that in order to survive they had to evolve fire resistant skin...?
Sounds fare.
It's possible that a planet like Devaron would have conditions similar to the Earth during the Carboniferous, during which forest fires were more common due to a higher oxygen content in the atmosphere.
Star wars: imma just steal this real quick. From various other things everywhere
I have to be crazy i SWEAR there was at least 2 big channels breaking down the Mando prison escape episode that said dude was a Zabrak that "they don't all have horns like maul"
Obviously as a cloneware's fan II knew better and called them out but I can't remember where it was now and it's making me mad every time I see a deveronian
still waiting for SWTOR to release Devaronians as a playable race.
I wouldn't call them SW's "answer" to Hellboy and D&D's Tieflings, as they predate both of them by well over a decade.
I like these. Can you do more species breakdowns? I feel that a LOT of them are ignored by other channels.
No mention of Vilmarh Grahrk? His whole philosophy on trying to harm a jedi is bad luck is what Hondo follows, and he made one of the best counterparts to Voss's storyline in Legends (yes, comment is late to the party)
Hi i love ur battle front vids
So basically,if you aren't an extremely powerful person,or haven't pissed one off recently,they're safe to make friends with
If they can use large amounts of sulphur as a drug and not die, eating flamethrowers should be a walk in the park.
"Attention, sergeant on deck!"
My theory of why in the mandalorian one of them was able to shrug off the flame thrower.
Its not due to them being immune but its a mix between thick skin and sulfur blood.
The thick skin in it self acts similar to natural leather armor which if compared to leather here on earth burns at temperatures of 212c. Since its thicker skin it can be assumed temperature required would be slightly higher.
Now about the sulfur. Sulfur on earth Melts at 115c and burns at 200c.
Now add the thick leather like skin with the sulfur blood.....plus any sulfur he might of taken before the mission (which augments strength and speed) its safe to say would make him somewhat resistant to hot temperatures (plus we have no idea how hot it is on their planet or if their planet canon got changed).
What about mandos flame thrower? Thats hard to say cause earths flame throwers reach about 1000c and is known to set many things ablaze however if we watch both the mandalorian and Jangos (and mandalorians in clone war) flamethrower they don't appear to be as hot like your typical flamethrower as both mandos flame thrower cooked the storm trooper inside his armor but only burnt his armor (which if it was 1000c I would assume would melt the stormtroopers armor) and Jango only burning maces cloak but appeared hardly to affect mace at all (even by jumping the fire would of atleast left some burns on him before falling back down into the arena). I also don't think mandalorian flamethrower are not 1000c os because where its mounted. Yes a mandalorians armor would protect him from his own fire however even armor heats up eventually and not all mandos have beskar armor so you would want a wrist flame thrower that can burn but not burn through your own armor as well.
Now this is just a theory so if I missed something or I'm wrong about something please feel free to reply to this comment all I ask is be educated not belittled if I'm wrong. Thank you.
"Ins and outs"
Heheheh...
If it looks like a demon, smells like a demon, bleeds like a demon.....its a demon
FOR THE EMPEROR!!!!!!!!!!!!
