Quarren were aquatic humanoids with squid-like heads, at least four tentacles on their faces, and leathery skin. The species were also able to change the color of their skin during mating rituals. The average Quarren lifespan was 79 standard years. Having evolved in the depths of Mon Calamari, Quarren could descend to depths of 300 meters without any breathing or pressure apparatus. However, when descending to 50 meters or deeper, they had to spend as much time decompressing as they spent under 50 meters of water to allow their bodies to readjust to the lower surface pressure. Some Quarren had suction-tipped fingers, while others had fingers that lacked suction cups. Whether these were two distinct subspecies is unknown. In comparison to their Mon Calamari neighbors, the Quarren were isolationist. They preferred the depths of their ocean homeworld to the shallow seas and the planet's few islands. They rarely invited guests to their domain. The Quarren also spoke their native language more frequently than Basic, in contrast to the Mon Calamari who spoke Basic more often.
