The Followers of the Jawalord were a large sect of Jawas who worshiped a leader known as the Jawalord. The Jawalord had appeared twice in Jawa history, both times saving his race from certain doom through diplomacy instead of bloodshed. The followers awaited the Jawalord's return, as it had been foretold that his third reincarnation would not be in the form of a Jawa but an outcast from another race. It was thought that this third reincarnation would lead his loyal followers to greatness.
