Quarfs were shapeshifting creatures that had the ability to fly as well as send signals through a horn in the middle of their foreheads. The only known quarf was seen on the forest moon of Endor where it went by the nickname "Silky" as it was dubbed by young Ewoks from Bright Tree Village. In reality, "Silky" was the servant of the Dark Enchantress Jadru, sent to kidnap the Ewoks' Princess.
