有些翻译可能并不合适，欢迎指出

They're supposed to be great warriors. Clever, resourceful, proud. Intensely loyal to one another, too."
―Eli Vanto, on the Chiss[src]

“他们应该是永垂不朽的战士。聪明、足智多谋、骄傲。对彼此也十分忠诚。”
——伊莱万托，在奇斯

The Chiss were a blue-skinned, near-human sentient species that possessed red eyes and dark blue hair. They hailed from the planetCsilla.
The Chiss Ascendancy was the governing body of the Chiss. Their domain was located in the Unknown Regions. They had little contact with the rest of the galaxy, and until Grand Admiral Thrawn's ascent in the ranks of the Galactic Empire, their existence was regarded as mostly a legend even within the Unknown Regions.
奇斯种族是一个拥有蓝色皮肤、红色眼睛和深蓝色头发且近似人类、有感知能力的种族。他们的首都是行星奇拉。
奇斯统治领是奇斯种族的管理机构。他们的统治区域位于未知区域，他们几乎与银河系其他居民们没有接触，这一状况一直维持到海军元帅索龙的军衔在银河帝国晋升，他们的存在被认为是一个传说，即使在未知区域也是如此。

Biology and appearance生理特征及其外貌——
What is he, some kind of Pantoran with an eye condition?"
―Driller MarDapp, commenting on Thrawn's appearance[src]
“他是什么，某种有眼部疾病的潘托拉人吗？”
—Driller MarDapp，对于索龙外貌的评论。
The Chiss had blue skin and red eyes.
奇斯种族拥有蓝色皮肤和红色眼睛。
The Chiss were near-humans, meaning their shape, features, and dimensions were greatly similar to those of humans. However, some notable differences being that their skin was blue, their hair a shimmering blue-black, and their eyes a glowing red. Because of those first two characteristics, they were could be mistaken for Pantorans, blue-skinned humanoids from Pantora,although Pantorans did not have red eyes. Besides their coloration, Chiss eyes were slightly better than those of humans, their visible spectrum edging a little into the infrared range. Additionally, their hearing was sharper.
奇斯种族是类人，意味着外形、特征和尺寸与人类极其相似。然而，一些显著的区别是他们的皮肤为蓝色，他们的头发为闪亮的蓝黑色，并且眼睛是发光的红色。由于前两个特征，它们可能被误认为潘托拉人，来自潘托拉的蓝皮肤类人生物，虽然潘托拉人并没有红眼睛。除了颜色，奇斯的眼睛比人类稍微要好一点，他们的可见光谱有点接近红外线的范围。此外，他们的听力更加敏锐。
Force-sensitivity, referred to as Sight by the Chiss, was incredibly rare and manifested in limited abilities, namely precognition which was Third Sight[6] and telepathy, which was known as Second Sight. These Force-sensitive Chiss were almost always female. Their abilities diminished as they grew older and eventually disappeared.[6]The secrets of Second and Third Sights were among the best-kept secrets in the Chiss Ascendancy, to such an extent that many Chiss themselves were unaware of their full extent or even their existence. While he was familiar with the intricacies of Third Sight, Chiss Imperial Grand Admiral Mitth'raw'nuruodo knew of the existence of Second Sight but was unaware of its abilities.[4] Girls identified with the ability to use the Sight were trained to act as navigators for the Chiss fleet through the treacherous hyperspace routes of the Unknown Regions. They were known as ozyly-esehembo, the Cheunh word for "sky-walker."[6]
原力敏感，奇斯称为“视力”【Sight】，在奇斯看来，这是非常罕见的，且体现在有限的能力当中，即第三视觉的预知和第二视觉的心灵感应。这些对原力敏感的奇斯人几乎总是女性。她们的能力随着年龄的增长而减弱，最终消失了。第二和第三视觉的秘密是奇斯统治领保存得最好的秘密之一，以至于许多奇斯人自己都不知道它们的完整能力范围，甚至不知道它们的存在。当他熟悉第三视觉的错综复杂时，帝国海军元帅奇斯他让你米特索龙努罗多知道第二视觉的存在，但不知道它的能力。有能力使用这种“视力”的女孩被鉴别出后便接受了训练，成为奇斯舰队的导航员，穿越未知区域危险的超空间路线。他们被称为“ozyly esehembo” ，在奇翁语的意思为 “天-行者”
Society and culture 社会与文化
"But one fact has always remained constant: The Chiss must be approached from a position of strength and respect. One must have strength, for the Chiss will deal only with those capable of keeping their promises. One must have respect, for the Chiss must believe that those promises will be kept."
―Passage from Thrawn's journal[src]
只有那些能信守诺言的人。每个人都必须尊重他们，因为他们必须相信这些承诺会得到遵守。”
-索龙日志中的一段

The ruling class of the Chiss Ascendancy was known as the Aristocra. The Chiss military consisted of the Chiss Expansionary Defense Fleet.[2]
The primary Chiss language was Cheunh,[4] though in their rare contacts with outsiders, the Chiss used the Sy Bisti trade language. Written communication was done in the Chiss script.[4]
Most Chiss names were multi syllabic and consisted of three distinct parts, as in Mitth'raw'nuruodo. The first portion identified an individual's family, the second was the given name and the third indicated other social factors.[4]Aside from the long form of their names, the Chiss also used shortened variants—for example "Mitth'raw'nuruodo" could be shortened to "Thrawn".[2]These short form names were known as core names and for the sake of expedience, core names were conventionally used in all except the most formal situations. In a rare case of an outsider among the Chiss, the human Eli Vanto was given the standard three-part name "Eli'van'to," which his shipmates reduced to the core name "Ivant."

奇斯统治领统治阶级被称为贵人。奇斯军队由奇斯扩张防御舰队组成。
奇斯的主要语言是奇翁语，但是在他们与外界少有的接触中，奇斯使用的是西比斯蒂贸易语言。书面交流是用奇斯语的文字完成的
大多数奇斯人的名字是多音节的，由三个不同的部分组成，如在米特索龙努罗多。第一部分是一个人的家庭，第二部分是名字，第三部分是其他社会因素。除了他们的名字很长以外，奇斯也使用了缩写的变体-例如“米特索龙努罗多”可以缩写为“索龙”。这些简短的名称被称为核心名称，为了方便起见，除最正式的情况外，一般都使用核心名称。作为一个罕见的局外人，人类伊莱·万托被给予了标准的三部分名称“伊莱·万·托”，他的船员们把这个名称简化为核心名称“莱万”。
History历史
The Chiss hailed from Csilla, a planet located in the so-called Unknown Regions of the galaxy.[3] During the Imperial Era, they were ruled by a government known as the Chiss Ascendancy.[2]
Despite their secrecy, one Chiss known as Mitth'raw'nuruodo became an officer of the Galactic Empire. Attaining the rank of Grand Admiral,[2] he participated in the Imperial Military's efforts to combat the early rebellion in the years prior to the Battle of Yavin.[7]
Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, former Senator Johhar Kessen acquired the services of several female Chiss mercenaries.[1] During the Galactic Civil War, a Chiss female spy infiltrated the Empire as a human Imperial officer using fake skin.[8]
奇斯种族来自奇拉，一颗位于银河系未知区域的行星在帝国时代，他们由一个被称为“奇斯统治领”的政府统治。
尽管他们保密，一位奇斯人——米特索龙努罗多成为了银河帝国的一名军官。获得了元帅的军衔，在雅文战役之前的几年里，他参与了帝国军队对抗早期起义军的努力。
在雅文战役后不久，前参议员乔哈尔·克森获得了几名女性奇斯雇佣兵的服务。在银河内战期间，一名奇斯女性间谍利用假皮肤假扮人类帝国军官潜入帝国。

Behind the scenes 幕后
An early design of Alexsandr Kallus depicted him as a Chiss.
The Chiss species first appeared, albeit unidentified, in Heir to the Empire, a 1991 Star Wars Legends novel written by Timothy Zahn as the first entry in The Thrawn Trilogy.[9] The species' name would later be revealed in Vision of the Future, a 1998 Legends novel also written by Zahn as the second entry in Star Wars: The Hand of Thrawn Duology.[10] The Chiss
became canon when they appeared in Secret Alliances, the sixth campaign featured in Star Wars: Commander, a mobile game published by Disney Interactive[1] that was released on August 21, 2014.[11]
Though it was ultimately decided that he would be a human, a preliminary design of Agent Kallus, one of the antagonists of the canon animated television series Star Wars Rebels, depicted him as a member of the Chiss species.[12] Eventually, the Chiss would appear in the series, in the form of Grand Admiral Thrawn.[2]
亚历山大·卡勒斯的早期设计其实将他描绘成一位奇斯人。
奇斯种族首次出现在《帝国传承》中，蒂莫西·扎恩在1991年所写的一部星球大战传说宇宙小说，也是《索龙三部曲》的第一部小说。种族的名字后来出现在《未来之光》之中，1998年的传说宇宙小说《星球大战：索龙之手两部曲》——作为扎恩的第二部星战作品。
奇斯种族因出现在Secret Alliance而进入正史宇宙，出现在《星球大战:指挥官》(Star Wars: Commander)的第六次战役，该游戏由迪士尼互动公司于2014年8月21日发行。
尽管最终决定卡勒斯将是人类，但作为经典动画电视连续剧《星球大战:义军崛起》的对手之一，特工卡勒斯的初步设计中将他描绘成一名奇斯的成员。但最终，奇斯种族出现以索龙元帅形象的出现，现身在义军崛起系列之中。
