Society and Culture

The Zeffo referred to the Force as the "Life Wind", and their skilled Force users became known as sages.

One of the oldest spacefaring civilizations, the Zeffo built grand structures and left their mark on numerous worlds including Bogano, Ontotho, Kashyyyk, and Dathomir. For their grand sages, the Zeffo constructed elaborate and beautiful tombs.

The Zeffo built their enormous structures with incorporated archaic technology, which utilized and honed the Force abilities of its occupants. They also created Force-imbued relics called astriums, which served in multiple roles and were able to interface with other Zeffo constructs. While not physically powerful, Zeffo were capable of constructing automatons they referred to as guardians, which kept watch over their sacred sites long after the species' disappearance and apparent extinction.
