The wrix was a porcine species of large creature whose use was ideal in the arena of pit-fight competitions. In 1 ABY, the Imperial bioengineer, Dusque Mistflier attempted to examine the remains of a wrix that had been killed in a sporting event. The wrix's Zabrak trainer took great exception to Dusque's work and wanted her to use her skills to clone a stable of domesticated wrixes for him. Dusque refused to accommodate the angry trainer's request. Wrixes were colorblind.
