Lucasarts updated the “Ask the Team” section with a new question for the Starfighter team:

In Starfighter, can you tell me more about the character Nym?

Nym's alien species is new to Star Wars: he is an original creation by the Starfighter team. However, since his creation, Nym has been identified as a "Feeorin". Feeorins are hulking humanoids found in small colonies on a few Outer Rim worlds. Their planet of origin remains a mystery, but it is believed that Feeorin colonists abandoned their homeworld eons ago following a radical climate change. The Feeorin colony transports spread out to the far reaches of the galaxy in search of habitable planets; unfortunately, many of these ships were lost or destroyed. Those Feeorins who survived founded settlements on Outer Rim worlds, where they had difficulty adapting and were sometimes viewed as unwelcome scavengers by the locals. Currently, less than a million Feeorins still survive. Like humans, Feeorins display a wide array of personalities, although many Feeorin explorers and spacers are considered gruff and dangerous. Feeorins come in many hues, from coal black to pale white, but green, yellow, and blue are the most common skin colors.
