Why this Near-Human Species that Evolved Past the Need for Sight - The Secrets of the Miraluka

To think Jerec, the first notable Miraluka, was actually deemed a blind human at first due to serendipity writing the plot of Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II.

A Near Human race of Daredevils who rely on other senses in a nutshell.

"It seems in your haste for a thumbnail... you forgot cake." "NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

“Now I will have fewer distractions.” - mathematician, Leonhard Euler upon losing his eyesight around age 60. Despite what you’d think would be a massive setback, he became more productive than ever after losing his eyesight in the proceeding decades up to his death. With the help of a team of scribes to write his mathematical papers he ended up producing more really great mathematics than anyone ever in their lifetime and he is now considered the most prolific mathematician to have ever lived. He is one of those beings to know what it is like to lose one’s sight at some point in his life and he didn’t seem to be too adversely effected by it. At the same time as he was producing enough mathematics to fill a small library, he also had 13 children. Although many of his kids died before reaching adulthood, a few of his ancestors won Nobel prizes for work in chemistry, and in physiology and medicine. If you haven’t heard of Euler, and you like history, it’s well worth checking him out. He’s one of the greatest geniuses you’ve never heard of.

The Miraluka a species that is truly unique in the truest sense of the word.

I wonder if Drax's Art of Invisibility by Standing Incredibly Still will be effective to counter the Miraluka.

No eyes to see but they still see more than your average Senator. All serious though, I love the concept of seeing through the force. These fellows are so cool and I really love them and their lore and history. Visas Marr is the best Miraluka

Miraluka are my favorite species in the Star Wars universe. How they interact with the world is very interesting and I really enjoy the thought of a Miraluka Jedi investigator. I hope we get to see more of them in future stories.

Always loved the Miraluka because of their great designs and lore as well as the fact that they’ve been well represented in Star Wars games with Jerec in Jedi Knight and Visas in KOTOR 2

Geetsly: We're gonna take a closer look at the Miraluka. The Miraluka, who can't see: Am I a joke to you?

The Miraluka are one of my favorite Species in Star Wars (my main SWOTOR Character is a Male Miraluka Sith Inquisitor), I wish Legends had expanded on them even more. I give them a 7 out of 10 mainly due to Species like the Sith and Chiss having so much Lore about them, had we known even more about them i'd give them a 10.

When you said their planet was isolated it made me think of how in the Star Wars galaxy, it seems to usually be better to live on an isolated system; as long as you don't get marked for the location of a secret military base or factory. Even though you lose a lot of wealth and economic power, you seem pretty safe from all the conflict that constantly fills the galaxy. Just do your best to avoid having any major corpo find a rare resource on your planet to exploit.

Something that is simply amazing to me is that it is possible for the blind, via making clicking sounds with their tongue, to learn to echo locate as bats do. To be clear, I am not referring to a phenomenon in Star Wars, but from our real world. I will forever be in awe of a video in which a blind master of echo location is riding a bicycle through a park.

Using the Dark Souls 3 Fire Keeper as a Miraluka was amazing 9:00

Guess the Miraluka don't like to see eye to eye with others.

Aayla secure has the most beautiful eyes. 😍 My soldier stand attention.

The Miraluka are in my top three favorite Star Wars aliens. Up there with the Kel Dor and Zabrak.

Honestly this makes me wish I had this ability. I know it sounds crazy as hell but still😂

Does anyone else not understand the title of the video? (At time of writing, it is "Why this Near-Human Species that Evolved Past the Need for Sight - The Secrets of the Miraluka"

Gave up their eyes and diverted all that energy for seeing into baking cakes. Great cakes.
