The Pelgrin were an ancient race native to the planet Pelgrin, but died out millions of years before the planet was first discovered by the scouts of the Old Republic. From the archaeological record, Old Republic investigators learned that the Pelgrin were not a highly advanced race, but had the uncanny ability to duplicate advanced technology with limited means. In addition to steam engines and mechanical communication devices, the Pelgrin also created the clockwork computer known as the Oracle at Pelgrin.
