Killiks are a fictional species from the Star Wars universe, known for their insect-like appearance and hive-minded behavior. They are native to the planet Dantooine and are characterized by their ability to communicate through pheromones and body language, rather than spoken language. Killiks live in large colonies, working together to build intricate nests and gather resources. These creatures play a significant role in the Star Wars Expanded Universe, particularly in the New Jedi Order series. They are often depicted as both allies and adversaries to the Jedi, showcasing their complex nature and the challenges of understanding their hive mentality.
