eabevella replied to your post “I am fond of Star Wars’ general stance that wildly different alien…”
I was asking my brother about this earlier but he’s not sure so thanks for the answer
you mean “can humans and aliens have kids in star wars”? because it’s…complicated. and depends entirely on what source you’re looking at as well as the species. like the republic commando books said humans and twi’leks can’t have kids, but the kids in the deserter are supposed to have a human dad (if not actually cut’s kids)
and there’s a blurry line between “near human” as in actually related to humans and species which look humanish but are unrelated. plus some authors occasionally seem confused over what are species names and what are planet names for colonies of humans. basically it’s a mess. but unlike star trek, where seemingly anyone can have a kid with anyone, there do seem to be more limits
My brother actually told me about the story of the clone deserter and he’s not sure if the kids’ father is the clone deserter. It lead to another question about whether the clone soldiers can have kids because the general policy of making genetic engineered creature is that you make them infertile so that the enhanced/altered genes won’t spread out… I guess the writers didn’t think that much when creating those stories.
