Fyrnocks
Creatures found inhabiting Fort Anaxes, a military base used by the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars. Fyrnocks were hurt by sunlight and could only live under the cover of darkness, in which they became fierce predators. However, they are immune to lights that are not solar-based. Fyrnocks were typically the size of a small humanoid, but at least one was known to grow much larger. Hera Syndulla and Sabine Wren encountered fyrnocks on Fort Anaxes many years after the war. Later, Jedi Knight Kanan Jarrus and his apprentice Ezra Bridger returned to Fort Anaxes, hoping to lure The Inquisitor into a trap. Using the Force, they were able to convince the Fyrnocks to attack the Inquisitor and his Imperial Stormtroopers. While the Fyrnocks were ultimately unable to defeat the Inquisitor, they did manage to take down several of the Stormtroopers.
Variations
At least one Fyrnock was known to be many times the size of standard Fyrnocks. This creature was far more dangerous than standard Fyrnocks, although their exact role within a pack of Fyrnocks is unknown. Years after the Clone Wars, Jedi Padawan Ezra Bridger encountered this Fyrnock. Tapping into The Dark Side, he was able to convince the Fyrnock to aid him in his fight against The Inquisitor. The Fyrnock put up a good fight, succeeding in saving both Ezra and Kanan Jarrus' lives.
