电影



The humanoid species known as the Nikto have tan, leathery skin and flat faces with multiple breathing holes on their cheeks and jawbones. Four small horns protrude from the Nikto's forehead.
这个被称为尼克托人的人形种族有黄褐色的坚韧皮肤和扁平的脸，脸颊和下颌骨上有许多呼吸孔。额头上刺出四根小角。

Nikto can be found throughout the galaxy, often involved with shady activities in the galaxy's fringe. That said, at least one member of this species had ascended to the rank of Jedi Knight during the waning days of the Republic.
尼克托人遍布银河系，经常在银河系黑道从事不正当勾当。尽管如此，在共和国日渐衰落的日子里，这个种族至少有一名成员获得绝地武士的头衔。

衍生宇宙



Of all the "client species" of the Hutt criminal empire, the Nikto are regarded as the most dangerous, especially due to the actions of a fanatical and fatalistic cult that has long plagued the Nikto people.
在赫特人犯罪帝国的所有“从属种族”中，尼克托人被认为是最危险的，主要因为一个狂热的宿命论邪教活动长期折磨着尼克托人。

The Nikto hail from Kintan, an ancient planet in the Si'klaata cluster. Radiation from a nearby nova is believed to have sparked rampant mutation among the animal life of Kintan, and has resulted in the Nikto species encompassing a number of distinct sub-races.
尼克托人来自西克拉塔星团的古老行星金坦。据信，一颗邻近新星的辐射触发了金坦动物的疯狂变异，导致尼克托人包含众多各异的亚种。

The Kajain'sa'Nikto, or "Red Nikto" are probably the most common. These desert dwellers are characterized by reddish pigmentation, small horns along the forehead and orbits of the eyes, noseless faces, and neck-based breathing tubes.
卡贾因萨尼克托人，即“红尼克托人”，恐怕是最常见的。这些人住在沙漠里，皮肤呈红色，围绕额头和眼圈生有小角，脸上没有鼻子，颈部生着呼吸管。

The Kadas'sa'Nikto, or "Green Nikto," have scaley hides, large obsidian eyes surrounded by a ridge of small horns, and visible noses. They are found in the milder forest and coastal regions of Kintan.
卡达斯萨尼克托人，即“绿尼克托人”，他们有鳞状皮肤，黑色的大眼睛周围生有突起的小角，鼻子明显。他们住在金坦较暖和的森林和岸区。

The Esral'sa'Nikto, or "Mountain Nikto," are hornless, have blue-gray skin, and thermoregulating fins growing from their cheeks. Their native mountain environment experiences temperatures from sweltering summers to bone-chilling winters, and they are well-equipped to survive such extremes.
埃斯拉尔萨尼克托人，即“山地尼克托人”，没有角，皮肤灰蓝，脸颊上长有调节体温的鳍状物。在他们居住的山区，气温时而酷热如夏，时而刺骨如冬，但特殊的生理机能使他们能在这种极端环境下存活。

The Gluss'sa'Nikto are the "Pale Nikto," island inhabitants with the horns of the Red Nikto, the smaller facial fins evocative of the Mountain Nikto, but with white-gray skin.
格卢斯萨尼克托人，即“白尼克托人”，是岛民。他们的角与红尼克托人相同，脸上的鳍比山地尼克托人的小，肤色灰白。

Finally, the M'shento'su'Nikto are the "Southern Nikto," yellow to orange-skinned representatives that lack horns but have a multitude of neck breather tubes.
最后是姆申托苏尼克托人，即“南方尼克托人”。其典型特征是肤色介于黄橙之间，没有角，但颈部呼吸管众多。

Though the Nikto may have warred because of their differences in their early history, the harsh task of surviving their planet's dangers united them as a people. They conquered a wilderness full of mutant beasts to arrive at the top of their food chain.
或许尼克托人早期曾因种族差异而相互争战，但最终他们还是团结成一个民族，共同在危机四伏的母星顽强生存。他们征服变异兽肆虐的荒野，登上食物链的顶端。

When the Nikto developed technology enough to understand the stars around them, they discovered the nova responsible for the mutations on their world. This stellar phenomenon, called the M'dweshuu, became the centerpoint of a bizarre deadly blood cult that grew to rule the planet through fear.
当尼克托人的科技发展到足以让他们认识周围的星空时，他们发现是那颗新星导致了母星上的物种突变。这个天体现象——被称为“姆德韦舒”——成为一个诡异极端血腥邪教的中心。这个邪教逐渐通过恐惧统治全球。

It was the ancient pre-Republic Hutts that delivered the Nikto salvation from the cult. For this, the Nikto were grateful, and readily agreed to join the growing community of Hutt-controlled worlds. Alongside such ancient species as the Klatooinians and the Vodrans, the Nikto joined in battle under the Hutt banner, defeating the pre-Republic tyrant Xim the Despot at the Third Battle of Vontor. This decisive victory placed the Hutts at the top of a millennia-spanning criminal empire.
正是先共和国时代的古赫特人把尼克托人从邪教中拯救了出来。尼克托人为此感激不已，欣然同意加入由赫特人控制的、不断壮大的星际共同体。在赫特人的麾下，尼克托人同克拉图因人和沃德兰人等古老的种族一起并肩作战，在第三次冯托战役中击败了先共和国时代的暴君西姆。这场决定性胜利使赫特人登上了犯罪帝国的皇座，并延续了数千年。

Since that time, the blood cult has arisen anew on several occasions, each time being put down by the Nikto, the Jedi, the Hutts or others. For this reason, Nikto carry with them a reputation for danger, though their species is varied, and have the capacity for warmth and compassion as well as violence.
从此以后，那个血腥的邪教屡次死灰复燃，每次都被尼克托人、绝地、赫特人或其他人剿灭。尼克托人因此背上了危险的恶名，但他们种族分支甚多，而且有时也会热情友好，放弃暴力。

幕后



The Nikto were designed by Creature Supervisor Phil Tippett, first as a maquette, and then as a slip-on mask for a number of background alien extras in Return of the Jedi. The Nikto character, like fellow characters Barada and Klaatu, were named after the 1951 science fiction classic, The Day the Earth Stood Still. In that film, Klaatu, the man from outer space, says the cryptic alien phrase, "Klaatu, Barada, Nikto" in order to control the giant robot, Gort.
尼克托人由生物总监菲尔·蒂皮特设计，先是初步设计的模型，然后是易脱戴面具，供《绝地归来》中的数名背景群众演员使用。尼克托人这个名字，跟角色巴拉达和克拉图一样，是根据1951年的经典科幻片《地球停转之日》命名的。在那部电影里，来自外太空的人克拉图说着晦涩的外星语“克拉图，巴拉达，尼克托”，以控制巨大的机器人戈特。

During production, Nikto doubled as both a character and species name. It wasn't until later, through Expanded Universe publishing, that it was revealed that Nikto was the species, that Klaatu was a representative of a different Nikto sub-race, and that Barada was a Klatooinian.
摄制期间，尼克托既是角色名也是种族名。直到后来通过衍生宇宙出版物才确定尼克托人是一个种族，克拉图是一个不同的尼克托人亚种的代表人物，而巴拉达是一名克拉图因人。

The Nikto design was reused for Episodes I and II, this time with new masks. The hand design changed, though, perhaps suggesting yet another Nikto sub-race not yet accounted for.
尼克托人的设计在《第一部》和《第二部》中被再次使用，这次是新的面具。但手部设计被更改了，这也许暗示又一个尚未设定的尼克托人亚种出现了。
