Sarlacc

The Sarlacc is a gigantic alien monster that featured in the Star Wars franchise and became one of the series most iconic and popular aliens as well as one of its more dangerous - it is also one of Star Wars more colossal specimens and was largely hidden due to its underground nature.

The Sarlacc, as mentioned above, lies submerged under the ground but appears as a gaping maw full of sharp fangs - easily large enough to consume human beings (or larger prey).

One particularly powerful specimen was utilised by Jabba the Hutt as a tool of execution for those who displeased him and he attempted to have Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Chewbacca sacrificed to the monster but was unsuccessful.

Since then the Sarlacc have appeared on and off in varied Star Wars media.
