| abstract | - Like many other races in the Kanz Sector, the Lorrdians were subjugated and enslaved by the Argazdans during the Kanz Disorders. The Lorrdians attempted to forge an alliance with the Amaltannan resistance, which incurred a greater wrath from the Argazdans. The Lorrdians were forbidden to speak, sing, or use other vocal communication while enslaved, and so they developed a complex form of sign language known as "kinesic communication." Rather than speaking out loud, Lorrdians learned to use subtle movements of the body, hands and face to communicate. They became adept mimics, and even after being liberated by the Jedi Knights and an Old Republic task force, they continued to use the non-verbal communication. Their mimicry earned them positions in a number of entertainment industries. As a human people, Lorrdians were known for the fact that they did not use surnames when describing themselves. Instead, each Lorrdians used a combination of the names of their relatives to define themselves, sometimes taking on as many as twenty individual parts to their names. The order of these various names defined each Lorrdian, although they could be called by any one of the names they took on.
- Lorrdians were a sentient bipedal species that gave off a distinctive natural scent and had a very expressive body language. Lorrdian members of the Brotherhood of the Beatific Countenance wore concealing robes that acted as a physical vow of silence.

- Lorrdians, a Human culture from the planet Lorrd in the Kanz Sector, were genetically identical to all other baseline Humans. However, because their unique culture and history set them apart from other Humans, they were sometimes classed as Near-Humans. During the Kanz Disorders (3,970–3,670 BBY), the Lorrdians were enslaved by the Argazdan rebels who had broken away from the rule of the Galactic Republic. During the turmoil that followed, the Lorrdians were forbidden by their masters from communicating with each other. The Lorrdians were forced to develop a system of subtle gestures, facial expressions, and body postures to talk to each other. Beginning as a simple battle tongue used to co-ordinate guerrilla groups, this eventually became a sophisticated language they called "kinetic communication." They also learned how to interpret the body language of others to determine their emotional state and intentions with uncanny accuracy. Lorrdians also became among the galaxy's best mimics, able to imitate a wide variety of mannerisms and voices (even those of many non-Humans).
