Always enjoy the species videos. I love how this is always the most factual Star Wars channel and gets down to such specific details as “they didn’t enjoy food”.
Had a particularly difficult week at work so far. Binging your species playlist has made it infinitely more bearable. You’ve got the best Star Wars channel on TH-cam in my opinion! Keep up the amazing work.
That's why Mas Amedda was the PERFECT companion to Palpatine. Chagrians valued order, but were not so greedy that they wanted to possess absolute power and the galaxy, they could reign in their ambitions. Amedda was content to spend his life at Palpatine's side, being top administrator (Grand Vizier) of the Empire, but was so loyal he never tried to overthrow him once, meaning that Palpatine had no issue giving Amedda autonomy to even speak for him in many cases. It wasn't the same with the sith. He knew he had to keep Darth Vader on a short leash and spy on him constantly via his royal guard so he would know Vader is not making any plans to overthrow him. Amedda was probably very refreshing to Palpatine. He was someone Palpatine could trust with his secrets but remained outside the Sith order and never got involved with Sith business if not carrying out Palpatine's orders. Of course Palpatine didn't love him, as he loved no one, but apparently, after 23 years, never was angry enough with Amedda to consider replacing him.
I assumed, like all members of the One Sith, the Wyyrlok line adorned their bodies from head to toe in red and black Sith tattoos, much like Darth Maul as the apprentice of Darth Sidious. Remember! When the Legacy comics were being made it was a time for Maul was retconned to be a Dathomirian Zabrak and thus his body markings were also retconned into being the body markings of a Nightbrothers. Darth Wyyrlok’s own daughter was still a Sith Acolyte and so still had her natural blue skin. I believe she too would have received the red and black tattoos once her training was complete. 😉 EDIT: ok I can’t believe I haven’t noticed that red skinned Chagrian in the KOTOR comic before. Maybe genetics do play a part in it, perhaps with each generation away from their watery home world causes a mutation in their skin pigmentation. Or this is the result of all Chagrians not being born on Champala 🤷🏻♂️ Either way this was an interesting video. Keep up the great work 👍🏻
That deleted scene with the tongue is insane! I never would've guessed this species has any of these quirks and abilities without this awesome video...looks like its time to do some more reading up on the lore
@@Cesare-Borgia Im talking about betraying Republic also he wanted to sell empire remnats, to save his ass in Coruscant during the Fall of The Empire so me saying hes a backstaber is quatie aqurate.
Mas Amedda: "If only Senator Amidala were here..." Jar-Jar: "Messa gunna calling her on da holonets! See wat she'sa thinkin we should be doin." Palpatine and Mas: _Panic and Face-Palm_
Ive been subbed since the start more or less and this is the first time Ive seen the Metanerdz guy (I usually just listen to the audio). Usually it's a bit weird when you first see somebody you've only listened to for years. They never quite look like whatever vague image your mind envisioned. But strangely enough Metanerdz totally looks like he sounds. lol.
Could you please do more halo lore as there's lots to cover and I struggle to put it into a timeline or understand it but your videos explain really then really well.
It's surprising that this species are so selfless and peaceful given one of them became Palpatine's right hand man and always struck me as the opposite. He always seemed very warm hungry and obsessed with being a higher class individual.
I like to think of Mas Amedda as the closest thing Palpatine had to a true friend. More like a favorite tool but still, for a being of pure evil that’s pretty good.
5:10 Wyyrlok's lineage was given the Sith tattoos. Those were not natural. In the original EU, Darth Maul's tattoos were explained the same way, and the Legacy comics show nearly all of the lords of Krayt's One Sith Empire bearing these tattoos. His daughter, Saarai (meaning "truth" in Sith) was meant to become Darth Wyyrlok IV and receive the same tattoos. But indeed, Wyyrlok would have originally had blue skin, as did Wyyrlok I and II (the former of which could very well have been Mas Amedda).
Funny how a Chagrian became Palpatine’s vice (de facto acting) Emperor and even succeeded him as the second Emperor (at least de iure, for he almost lacked power beyond his throneworld of Coruscant in reality). In Legends many other Chagrians became the Regents of other Sith Emperors, if not possibly Emperor de iure like Amedda (I’m not sure about this detail). For some reasons Chagrians seem born to be the Siths’ right hand. And Empires were mostly racism against non-human …
Darth Wyrrlok's red skin is due to the one sith habits of getting full body red and black tattoos. His daughter still has the natural chagrian blue skin.
I haven't uploaded other life stories just species. They are shorter and I have both ad obligations and a wedding in a few weeks so I had to got with that. I don't want to rush takin but I think it will be out in November
If you think about it it's such a joke that we assume even 1 out of 50 species would look exactly us from the top lip down lol.let alone all 50 species in starwars

Ok 👌
Hello there
Holy crap your ad is so long ..wish u would put those Ads at the end of video
Eh I'm already bald
I'm only 24 lol
A Chagrian: *Exists*
Sith: "Would you want to be my second in command, dude?"
Sith using Chagrian as second in command
*I F#@king do it again*
Remind me of Goofy trail by filthyfrank
Always enjoy the species videos. I love how this is always the most factual Star Wars channel and gets down to such specific details as “they didn’t enjoy food”.
I agree Meta, Manda-LORE, and Matt Wilkins know how to get down to the facts.
Chagrians- look like demons, but apart from a penchant for serving the Sith, live saintly lives!
They even shave their horns like hell boy lmao
i guess you could say it’s to their… *chagrin* 🌚
Except for Bob he's just a ass.
Had a particularly difficult week at work so far. Binging your species playlist has made it infinitely more bearable. You’ve got the best Star Wars channel on TH-cam in my opinion! Keep up the amazing work.
thanks I'm glad it helps, keep pushing and planning
Tru
Who would've guessed that the species who produced Palpatine's right hand man were so wholesome
It's like how Naboo produced the worst man in galactic history
They were some of the Republic's most loyal alien species and many have served in the Jedi order throughout millennia
I didn't think they would be an aquatic species.
I watched damn near every species breakdown video y’all have this past week and was dying for this one. You guys read my mind
Chagrians lack of a desire for possessions seems at odds with the ideas of the Sith
That's a generalization not a 100% certainty.
That's why Mas Amedda was the PERFECT companion to Palpatine. Chagrians valued order, but were not so greedy that they wanted to possess absolute power and the galaxy, they could reign in their ambitions.

@@trekstarsam2494 I was talking more about Chagrin Sith lords like those under Darth Krayt

I think Wyyrlock was red because it was tattooed on, his daughter was blue like all other Chagrians.

This is so Cool. I've been working on making a Chagrian Jedi Master and It's nice to know that this fits what I have for him so far.
To be completely honest, I didn't know they were a different species, I always thought they were some togruta subspecies
As a child, I always thought they were Twi'lek/Togruta hybrids
MetaNerdz you make me love Star wars with these videos
finally a video explaining this backstabers species [Im talking about Mas Amedda and that Sith one]
But that itself ignorant. Did you learn nothing from the video
@@yoshijb9428 Dude im not Speaking that Species as a whole is full of backstabers just you know Mas Amedda
@@Cesare-Borgia Im talking about betraying Republic also he wanted to sell empire remnats, to save his ass in Coruscant during the Fall of The Empire so me saying hes a backstaber is quatie aqurate.
Given his position in the story, I’d say mad ameda is the most underutilized character. Especially in the clone wars.
Not getting pleasure from eating, that's so sad.
To us it is. To a Chagrian they would probably think that's a strange concept.
Who woulda thought these guys were so chill
Mas Amedda: "If only Senator Amidala were here..."
Jar-Jar: "Messa gunna calling her on da holonets! See wat she'sa thinkin we should be doin."
Palpatine and Mas: _Panic and Face-Palm_
Always excited when you release a species video
Holy crap! This is my first time seeing you! Look good bro!I love your videos and your voice.
Face! FACE!!!
Loved it! Very well done deep dive into this super interesting alien race.

Usually it's a bit weird when you first see somebody you've only listened to for years. They never quite look like whatever vague image your mind envisioned. But strangely enough Metanerdz totally looks like he sounds. lol.
Admittedly I always thought he was apart of a second twilek race. Thanks for clarifying
Gotta be one of my favorite starwars channels keep up the great work!
Could you please do more halo lore as there's lots to cover and I struggle to put it into a timeline or understand it but your videos explain really then really well.
Thanks and yeah I do want to this year
Wow & second 🥈! Wish for crossover with Templin Institute soon.
One of my favorite species next to Selkath and Miraluka near-humans.
Great video!
Yay another species video 💛
Great stuff again!
What I'm getting from the Chagrians is that they are basically Canadians XD
Tropical Canadians
Love your videos dawg, so sick. FIRE
Thanks I'll keep em coming
@@MetaNerdzLore Hey I was just wondering when that next Obiwan part 4 vid will be coming out, if it still is. No rush of course, just curious.
Could you do the Kel Dor?
They're probably one of my favorite underrated Star Wars species
Eating for them is a chore...same mate...same.
It's surprising that this species are so selfless and peaceful given one of them became Palpatine's right hand man and always struck me as the opposite. He always seemed very warm hungry and obsessed with being a higher class individual.
It reminds me of Toydarians being generally good fly people, yet Watto isn't
So is that 3 or 4 variations of Twi'leks? Need more Zabrac variations, or brilliant idea bring out the Vong! Now that would be star wars at its peak!
The physisalogy of this species seems more in line with animals than a sentient species
That blue guy is different than the twi Lek? I honestly never noticed that
Could you do the mirialan?
I really need to know more about this species so thanks you meta
I like to think of Mas Amedda as the closest thing Palpatine had to a true friend.
More like a favorite tool but still, for a being of pure evil that’s pretty good.
Always cool videos !
Okay so that homeworld seems like paradise!
Your hair is good bruh
I just love a man with long thick horns
Man you're batting average is awesome another home run great video

6'3" WITH horns or without?
Love these species videos maybe gungans if you haven’t done it yet
Mas Ameeda was equally guilty of being an accessory before and after the fact of Galactic War crimes. Same with Sly Moore
Do the Neimoidians
What became of mas ameda after the galactic empire fell?
"Darkness worshiping, psychopathic polititian" 😂😂😂 what a description!
A part of me always thought that this dude was the actual apprentice lol
we need more!!!

I just love it
Cathar and Herglics plz
Star wars is so amazing
I have a "doll hair" situation going on on the top of my hair
5:37 “nearly as tall as a wookie”
The galaxy would’ve been better off if the whole Republic senate was made up of Chagrians.
Where is Tarkin part 2? You keep uploading these other Life Stories but haven't finished that on yet.
I haven't uploaded other life stories just species. They are shorter and I have both ad obligations and a wedding in a few weeks so I had to got with that. I don't want to rush takin but I think it will be out in November
Bro can you do a video about tera sinube plz
You should do the complete life of chewbacca, cuz thats definatley a long one
what about texture of their food?
Where is that first waterfall at?
I'm married as well, man. Your hair is good.
I imagine with a limited sense of taste and a preference for nutrition that obesity would be an extreme rarity for this species
Someone can tell me what is the name of the background music? I love it!
Summertime madness by premium beats
@@MetaNerdzLore Thanks I was looking for it for three months
Wait did that tongue thing
That deleted scene is creepy af
WOAH meta nerds is HOT?!
i gave up on hollywood but will always watch ur great vids even tho i no longer watch sw sadly
A species you can on always.
I thought Mas Amedda was just a Twilek.
lol I remember one of the Mas Amedda action figures had an optional tongue to stick out of his mouth
Still asking for a secutor class video
Please do the guys with the big Dino heads next I love these videos
Buckets of Blood!
Hello there
If you think about it it's such a joke that we assume even 1 out of 50 species would look exactly us from the top lip down lol.let alone all 50 species in starwars
Tarkin pt. 2?
"which makes them similar in height to wookie" mean while they're 17 inches shorter
wonder if it was shilly on shilli lols
This whole time I just thought they were twileks with horns 🤣
Same I thought the blue guy was literally the same character 😂
I figured they were just a meaner looking sub-species of Twilikes?
Dude u have friggen vampire teeth
I don’t pay much attention to my Hair, I wear a Hat. 🎩
I am already losing my hair and I have decided to just shave it.
I thought these were just a cousin to the Togruta.
Where is Buckets of Blood?
"Sith shenanigans" 😂
Kinda reminded me of Tommy Cash for a moment
Hello
Are they related at all to Twi'leks? They look too similar to not be related
