Some Information on This Encyclopedia
This encyclopedia was created from all Lucasflim-licensed sources of Star Wars information. It was created without regard for what is
"canon" what is not "canon" in the Star Wars universe. I did, however, place information from the Marvel Comics series in the Arcana
section, since much of it is wildly outside the standard Star Wars dogma.
It was first made available to friends in 1994, after about 2 ½ years of work. I had been compiling information in a few text files, since I
hadn't read any of the West End Games material when Heir to the Empire came out. Thus, I was completely at a loss as to what a
Lancer-class frigate was. As it grew, I realized that this was bigger than the text files I had started with, so I tried out WordPerfect. Once
I got everything converted over, and started really getting it presentable, I printed out the First Edition.
I kept working on it, especially when I learned about the scope of the West End Games material and the width of Bantam Spectra's deal
to produce new novels. My free time, as I knew it, would be forever changed!
When I got the HTML plug-in for WordPerfect, I knew it was time to "go public." That first HTML converter took about 14 hours to
complete the entire encyclopedia (which was about 2 Megabytes in size as a WP60 file), and my AOL account could only handle about
15 letters of the alphabet. I am indebted to those readers who started visiting my website back then, and who clamored for more
information. After trying a couple other converters in an effort to get that 14-hour time down, I gave up on WordPerfect and migrated to
Word 97. (This was a tough choice, since I am not Bill Gates' biggest fan by any stretch of the imagination!) The HTML code converted
in about 10 minutes, from a set of files which was now about 5 Megabytes in total. All this meant that I had more time to figure out how
to make the encyclopedia presentable.
I moved my ISP from AOL to Mindspring, and was able to get the full encyclopedia uploaded. However, I was limited to 450 Megabytes
of transfer per month, which at first was OK. But, as the prequels started getting headlines, I would hit that mark every once in a while.
When the prequels were about a year away, I would hit it every month. It was at this time that MosEisley.com offered to host my
th
encyclopedia. I hesitated, not sure if I should move. However, as the prequels approached and I starting hitting my limit by the 15 of
each month, I was getting as frustrated as my readers. So, I agreed to their offer and moved to their server. Thanks, Matt and Stan!
Of course, things always look greener across the fence, and I began to get a lot of notes from readers asking me to send them the files
via e-mail. While the server was handling the HTML code pretty well, downloads were only completing about half the time. This was
getting to be a hassle, as was the week where the site was down for an unknown reason. Also, space started to become an issue,
prohibiting me from putting up lots of pictures and graphics. Thus, I took a sabbatical from MosEisley.com and started hunting for a new
home. Amazingly, I found one almost immediately at TheForce.Net. They agreed to give me a ton of space and all the help I needed.
While I had this before, I was now part of one of the largest Star Wars sites on the Internet. TheForce.Net had already recognized my
encyclopedia as a cool site, and now it was on its way to become the Star Wars encyclopedia on the Internet.
This is the first edition with TheForce.Net, and I hope it reaches new and existing readers with more ease than ever. Thanks to readers
like you, I've been transferring well over 4 Gigabytes of data each month! I'm also indebted to the readers who have written back,
pointing out problems and offering suggestions, in an effort to make this the most complete and comprehensive encyclopedia available!
I rally do enjoy reading your correspondences and answering your questions. Keep 'em coming!
It is impossible to create a document like this from such a huge body of knowledge without finding some inconsistencies and errors.
Every author who has written in the Star Wars universe has commented on it and dealt with it. Lucasfilm has final say on the material I
drew from, and it makes no claim that the material is 100 percent compatible with George Lucas' vision of the Star Wars universe. So,
if there are errors or inconsistencies, I have tried to note them as appropriate.
It is important to note that this massive work could not have been completed (like it will ever be complete!) without help from a number
of sources. They are all noted in the Acknowledgements section. I just hope i didn't leave anyone out!
I have also tried to document the source of my encyclopedia entries at all times. The bibliography at the end of this encyclopedia is
quite extensive, and I have tried to indicate with each entry which source it came from. If an entry is not sourced, it means that I could
not remember where I found it. If you find an unsourced or inaccurately sourced entry, please e-mail me!. The source listed is the first
reference to an entry. If there are multiple sources listed, then all sources listed contributed some information to the encyclopedia. The
abbreviations I have used are as follows:
Lastly, I document A Guide to the Star Wars Universe, Second Edition, by Bill Slavicsek, as a source of information. While this
encyclopedia is very similar to Slavicsek's work, I have tried to put all my Star Wars knowledge into an encyclopedic format, complete
with pictures, related topics, and cross-references. Slavicsek's Guide is also a source of some information that I missed. What was
troubling for me was that I started creating this encyclopedia around the time of The Last Command by Timothy Zahn. Slavicsek's
Guide was released about a year later, much to my dismay! However, I still found myself lacking vital information, and kept on plugging
until I was able to get it all in one place.
Stuff I Still Need to Input
The following books, comics, and other sources are currently not in the encyclopedia. A "call for papers" will go out on the main page of
the encyclopedia website, asking for reader assistance in obtaining some of these. "Any hep would be hot!"
I’m also looking for anyone who managed to get their hands on a Sony Playstation2, and has played the latest round of LucasArts
games. I’d like to get a copy of the game manuals, and any information you could gather from the game, like storyline, events, and
other useful information.
Notes on Encyclopedia Entries
All entries are listed alphabetically, with the assumption that numerals come after letters. There are many cross-references to other
listings, and they should all refer to a full description somewhere in the encyclopedia.
The names of human characters are listed alphabetically by last name. Being a human from Earth, I used the standard American
phonebook listing for all Star Wars humans. Thus, if you want to look up Han Solo, you need to search in the S section under Solo,
Han. If a human only goes by a single name (eg., Roa), then you simply look up that single name.
Non-human names, however, are listed alphabetically by the initial part of their name. This is because I chose not to impose
Earth-bound human standards on Star Wars alien races. Thus, if you are trying to locate Momaw Nadon, you need to look under
Momaw Nadon. As with single-named humans, aliens who one have one word to their names are listed by that name (eg., Garindan).
Entries from any source not licensed or authorized by LucasFilm are preceeded by an asterisk (*). There's at least one of them!
A New Hope

A New Order
this Imperial holovid starred Alexis Cov-Prim. (LAA)
A Vrassa
this pleasure-causing drug is standard in most medical kits. (CFG)
A-A2
this is an outdated Trast repulsor truck. (IA)
A-A5
designation of Trast's speeder truck, the A-A5 are basically unarmed troop transports. The A-A5 can move 25 troops with ease. (RASB,
TLC)
A-A6z
this is the designation of a Trast speeder truck developed after the Battle of Endor. It is designed to be a cargo transport, with a
maximum capacity of three individuals and 25,000 kilograms of cargo. (TSK)
A-B6
this droid was a defacto member of the Farns, although it didn't actually belong to any organic member. Female in personality, A-B6
woudl do anything the other Farns asked of her, just to remain friends with them. (GG7)
A-OIC
this is a misspelling of the droid Doc’s designation (used in the last issues of SOTE: Evolution). (SEE)
A-scale Rating
this measurement system describes the proximity of a received starship transponder code to a match within the Bureau of Ships and
Services database. An A-1 match is a perfect match; the larger the value, the poorer the match. Anything greater than A-3 is usually
regarded as falsified. (CFG)
A-SL-4557.607.232
this is the Imperial decree which legalized the procurement of slaves, under certain conditions. (GG9)
A-Wing
the generalized name of the Dodonna/Blissex RZ-1 Starfighter. It is a flat, one-man, wedged-shaped snub fighter built for the Alliance
after the lost of the Hoth base and prior to the Battle of Endor. The A-Wing was designed, as it's name implies, by Jan Dodonna and
Walex Blissex. Because the Alliance was short on funds, most A-Wings were custom-built in private shops. The ship Tycho Celchu flew
at the Battle of Endor had its cockpit inlaid with Fijisi wood. It is 9.6 meters in length, and was designed for interception and long-range
reconnaissance. A unique feature of the A-wing is the short hydro-servo bearing installed in each wingtip, allowing the pilot to tilt the
laser cannons up to 60 degrees up or down. Its top sublight speed is 120 MGLT, and can maneuver at 1,300 kilometers per hour in an
atmosphere. It has limited navcomp capabilities, being able to calculate only 2 jumps before requiring recalibration.
A-Wing Slash
this New Republic naval battle technique requires split-second timing among a group of starfighters. The maneuver usually employs X-
Wings which fly directly toward the defensive line guarding a capital ship. Flying just behind the X-Wings will be a group of A-Wings,
hiding in the X-Wings’ drive glows. The X-Wings disengage their attack at the last second, drawing the fire of the defense with them.
The A-Wings can then strafe the undefended ship at will. It is very similar to a saggery-blossom maneuver. (SOP)
A-Z-Z-3
a Mon Calamari light freighter. (SN)
A-1 Deluxe
an old model Mobquet "floater," this landspeeder was not the fastest, sleekest, or most desirable speeder on the market. It was,
however, extremely reliable and inexpensive. The body was seven meters in length, but was thin. Pilot and passengers had to sit one
behind the other. An option on the A-1 was Corellian leather seating. (TM, GG7, CCG2)
A-121
this was an old astrogation plotter, designed and manufactured by Republic Seinar Systems during the Old Republic. (PSG)
A-175
this Red Star Shipping Action IV transport was hijacked by the Far Orbit while running a legitimate cargo for Cambrielle SolidState,
shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Her Captain, Joh Steen, believed that the Far Orbit was an Imperial ship, and agreed to turn his cargo
over to Dhas Vedij. (FOP)
A-24
this is Incom's series of Sleuth Scout ships. The A-24 is 14 meters in length, and requires only a pilot. A single passenger can also be
accomodated. It is armed with two laser cannons, and is protected by a decent set of shields. It has excellent maneuverability and
sublight speed for a ship of its size and class. (WBC)
A-3D0
a Duwani Mechanicals 3DO droid, this protocol and service droid was owned by Andur and Nomi Sunrider. (TOJ, TOJC)
A-3PO
this gleaming silver protocol droid was owned by Retter Lewis, and served as a translator and assistant at Callia's. (CRO)
A-3TO
this green-plated protocol droid served as the primary contact for any mercenary or smuggler visiting The Yard or Syndicate One.
(SWJ8)
a-4
this old Kuat Drive Yards ion cannon was designed for use on large capital ships. (SOP)
A-9x
this Kuat Drive Yards thrust engine design was created for use in the A-9 Viligance Interceptor. They have self-contained power
generators. (EGV)
A'Daasha, Corinna
a native of the planet Corellia, Corinna and her twin sister, Kandria, grew up in a wealthy family and never had to struggle to attain
anything. Corinna, unlike her sister, grew bored and restless in this existence, and used some of her inheritance to travel among the
stars. However, despite the freedom and adventure she experienced, Corinna felt somehow unhappy without Kandria. When Kandria
left Corellia to join her, Corinna’s spirits immediately rose. The pair eventually settled on Adarlon – Kandria’s choice, to which Corinna,
quickly agreed – and they established the Glow Dome complex. Corinna often tended bar herself, using a portable holoprojection unit to
alter her appearance. She was also sympathetic to the Alliance, having witnessed the news reports brought in by the underground unit
No-Holds-Barred. Her attachment to the Alliance provided a sense of security and purpose, something which was missing in her
childhood. (WSV)
A'Daasha, Kandria
a native of the planet Corellia, Kandria and her twin sister, Corinna, grew up in a wealthy family and never had to struggle to attain
anything. Unlike her sister, Kandria thoroughly enjoyed the life of luxury, but became distraught after Corinna left Corellia to see the
galaxy. She decided that she couldn’t be without Corinna, and decided to join her in her travels. The pair eventually settled on Adarlon
– Kandria’s choice, to which Corinna, quickly agreed – and they established the Glow Dome complex. Shortly after the business took
off, Kandria became withdrawn and moody, and it was later learned that she had been possessed by the Derriphan known as Ziakas.
(WSV)
A'driannamieq Mountains
found on the planet Elom, this wide expanse of rocky peaks is the native land of the ranphyx. (GG12)
A'jidre Skrigatov
this rotund Devaronian male served as the Provincial Governor of the planet Abregado-Rae during the height of the Galactic Civil War.
Skrigatov was little more than a petty gangster, so he used his goons to arrange an engagement to Brinaloy N'Vaari, the last surviving
member of her family. Despite his strong sense of honor, it was later discovered that Skrigatov arranged for the assassination of the
former Provincial Governor, who was actually Brinaloy's grandfather. In order to gain popular - and political - support, Skrigatov planned
to marry Brinaloy and tied up the loose ends. However, she used her skills as an actress and went into hiding, cutting off Skrigatov's
only hopes of winning support. (ND)
A'kazz
a Schenor rescued from an Imperial attack on a research station. He was questioned by Luke Skywalker, who hoped to use his story to
sway the Schenor to the side of the Alliance. (RPG)
A'Sako
this continent, located on the planet Mutanda, was connected to Cel'Con by a thin bridge of land. (PG1)
A’Sharad Hett
this being was the son of Sharad Hett, a Jedi Master who became a recluse and hid on the planet Tatooine during the period
surrounding the Battle of Naboo. When his father was assassinated by Aurra Sing, the Jedi Knight Ki-Adi-Mundi vowed to train
A’Sharad as his Jedi Padawan. Sharad gave his lightsaber to A’Sharad, so that he would have a constant remembrance of his father’s
struggle for peace. (SWO, IG1)
A/KT
this corporation produced a variety of full-body clothing that provided the wearer with protection in a number of environments. The most
popular of A/KT's outfits was the Tuff1 combat jumpsuit. (DTO, ROE)
A1 Tow
an Alliance heavy lifter group supplying Admiral Harkov during his attempt to defect to the Alliance. (TIE)
Aa'kua
this Old Corellian term means 'respect' or, more literally, 'respecting space.' When used by a Socorran, it translates to 'individual space,'
and indicates the right of every native of Socorro to go about his or her own business without others prying in. A violation of aa'kua is a
crime against the individual's own person, and was considered worse than murder. (SWAJ, BSS)
AA-1
the verbobrain model that is installed in C-3PO, it is built by SyntheTech. It is designed to hold the etiquette practices of millions of
species, with the ability to cross-reference and analyze alien amenities. (CPL, SWSB)
AA-2
this was the model number of Vector Technologies' Keeper subdermal control system. (WSV)
AA-23
designation of the detention block on the first Death Star used to imprison Princess Leia. It was located on Level 5. (SW)

AAA Tow
an Alliance heavy lifter group supplying Admiral Harkov during his attempt to defect to the Alliance. (TIE)
AAA-2
this SyntheTech verbobrain was developed for protocol droids during the early decades of the New Republic. (HT)
Aach
this was a codename used by one of Bail Organa's agents during the last days of the Imperial Senate. He was used only when top-level
business of the Alliance needed to be conducted. Thus, his presence always meant something important to the recipient of his
message. Aach was dispatched to Anchoron to tell Garm Bel Iblis of the discovery of the plans to the first Death Star. Aach's arrival
delayed the beginning of Bel Iblis' speech to the assembled group at the Treitamma Political Center, and probably saved the Senator's
life. The Center exploded in a ball of flame, part of a plot to assassinate Bel Iblis. (TFNR)
Aalia Duu-lang
this criminal madame operated from a base in Stassia City. (SWAJ)
Aalto
this young Jedi student was one of Bruck Chun’s obnoxious friends. (RF)
Aama
this New Republic Intelligence agent held the rank of Major. Aama was assigned to Alpha Blue, and served as one of Hiram Drayson’s
senior facilitators. (TT)
Aar
this is the homeworld of the Aar’aa race. (TPS)
Aar’aa
this race of chameleon-like reptiloids is native to the planet Aar, and is known for its ability to match its skin color to its surroundings.
Known as skin-changers, the Aar’aa are tall, well-muscled humanoids with pebbly-scaled skin, clawed hands and feet, and a thin ridge
of skin running down their backs. Their large faces are dominated by thick eye-ridges which hang down over small, glowing eyes. (TPS)
Aargau
a planet of some importance to the Empire. It is known throughout the galaxy for its banks, and was the site of a week-long conference
between Baron Tagge and the Corporate Sector companies. The result of the meeting was the formation of the Corporate Sector
Authority. After the Battle of Endor, Aargau fortified itself behind planetary shields and perimeter warships. (CSA, DESB)
Aari
one of Gaeri's aides in the Bakuran Senate. (TB)
Aarrba
this amiable Hutt ran a repair and salvage shop on the planet Cinnagar about 5,000 years before the Galactic Civil War. Aarrba was a
friend to Hok and Timar Daragon, and contiually kept their starship in working order. It was Aarrba who took in Jori and Gav Daragon,
after they were orphaned during the First Unification Wars, and raised them to adulthood. Aarrba continued to support them, giving
them loans when no one else would, until they were unable to pay for repairs to their ship following the discovery of the Goluud
Corridor. He was forced to have them arrested, in order to make them face up to their debts. When they fled the authorities, Aarrba
impounded their ship and called in all their debts. Aarrba’s body was stricken with sickness, and much of his body was amputated to
remove the infection. He was relegated to a repulsor-chair in order to move about. When Naga Sadow began his conquest of the Koros
System, Gav Daragon returned to Cinnagar and was confronted by Aarrba. Aarrba threatened Gav with imprisonment for his crimes,
but Gav’s Massassi bodyguards moved into position. Before he could do anything about it, Aarrba was killed by the bodyguards. Much
later, after the Great Hyperspace War, Empress Teta gave Jori Daragon all rights to Aarrba’s repair station for her part in winning the
war. (GAS, FOSE)
Aarrba’s Repair and Salvage
this starship maintenance facility was run by Aarrba the Hutt, and was located near the ancient Cinnagar starport. (GAS)
Aarwynn
this huge humbaba was known in Kashoonara legend as the steed of the deity Hurrungat. The legends say that Aarwynn was “six
Kashoonara high” at the shoulder, which was considerably larger than modern humbaba. (COG)
Aavman Extravagance
this small starship manufacturer produced luxury yachts during the New Order. (CRO)
Ab'Ugartte
an alien race from an unknown world, they are not among the most friendly species in the galaxy. They prefer their seclusion. (DESB)
Aba
a Wookiee doll given to Jacen Solo by Chewbacca. (CS)
Aban
an Imperial Navy officer, Aban was a Commander when he was placed in charge of the construction of the Imperial garrison on Sedri.
He formed an alliance with the renegade priest Karak, hoping to obtain the power of the Golden Sun for the Empire. The plan backfired
when Karak was captured by Pek and Fala, but Aban continued to make progress. Later, after surviving the Battle of Endor and beign
promoted to Captain, he was placed in charge of Grand Admiral Thrawn's Taanab Operation. He served as the commander of the
Bellicose in Thrawn's fleet. (DFR, BGS)
Abano
this Aruzan dola tree farmer was Manaroo’s father. He begged for her life to General Kritkeen, but the Imperial was unresponsive. He
sent Abano away with false promises and a warning shot from a stormtrooper’s blaster. Dengar later returned with Manaroo and rescue
Abano and his family, and the Alliance hid them - and the other Aruzans - on an unknown safeworld. (TBH)
Abatrarg
this gas giant is the sixth planet in the Atrig System. It has 18 natural satellites. PG2 also calls this world Abatrang. (PG2)
Abav Ghart
this Gotal was the leader of the Void Demons gang during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Ghart had been a pirate for more than
fifty years at the time of the Battle of Yavin, and started the Void Demons more than thirty years before the war. He always dressed in
expensive clothing, and was distinguished by the Repulse-Hand cybernetic prosthesis. He was considered a fiend of the worst kind,
willing to do anything or betray anyone for a profit. He is also referred to as Aban Ghart in Planets of the Galaxy, Volume One. (PG1)
Abbaji
a planet covered with rain forests. (SE)
ABC Scrambler
this bounty hunter's weapon was an Aural-Biological-Chemical scrambler. It was based on the design of an anti-ordnance
electromagnetic probe, and emitted a full spectrum of ultrasonic waves, chemical agents, and biological irritants when fired. The spread
of the scrambler's blast had a wide pattern, and disoriented its target with massive sensory overloads. This allowed the hunter to
capture the target without having to fight them. (GG10)
Abdi-Badawzi
this notorious Twi'lek gangster operated from an underground fortress located beneath the Rym Mountains, on the planet Socorro. He
was also one of the trio of owners of Ethra Brewery. Born to parents who were part of a merchant family on Ryloth, Abdi was unusual
because of his ebony-black skin. He lost his family when a rival clan assassinated them. Abdi had learned of the plot shortly
beforehand, and tried to warn his father. Hif father ignored him, and even accused Abdi of being the would-be assassin. Abdi was sold
into slavery shortly before the murder of his family. The slave ship he was transported on crashed in the deserts of Socorro, and Abdi
was rescued by an Ibhaan'I shaman. Upon learning of the deaths of his family, Abdi vowed to exact revenge on their killers. He made
friends with the most prominent members of Socorro's underground, and eventually moved his family fortune away from Ryloth. This
got his exiled form Ryloth, but he was beyond caring for that world anymore: Socorro was now his home. His ties to the Society of the
Black Bha'lir gained him a measure of respect, and soon he had established a great deal of influence in the smuggling business of the
planet. He even ignored the Hutts, knowing that the Black Bha'lir wouldn't tolerate Hutt interference on Socorro. Eventually, Abdi-
Badawzi's criminal empire expanded, and his capable leadership ensured its continued existence. (SWAJ, BSS)
Abek's Station
this small shadowport, located just off the intersection of the Sisar Run and the Ac'fren Spur, was owned and operated by Nim Abek
during the Galactic Civil War. Abek used the station as a staging area for his personal group of pirates, outside his work for Sprax.
When it was learned that Limna Yith was being held on the station, many interested parties converged on it, including a group
dispatched by Sprax himself to rescue Yith. In the struggle for possession of the Kerestian, Abek's Station was severely damaged when
the Imperial warship Ion Storm bombarded it with laserfire. The station was abandoned. (SSR)
Aber
this red dwarf star cast very little visible light on the planet Alpheridies. It was the primary body in the Abron System, containing the
planet Alpheridies. It was located just within The Veil, on the edge of the Mid Rim. (TOJC)
(TOJC)
Abin-Ral-Xufush
this Tiss'shar trader found the life of a trader to be too boring and non-productive, and soon went into business as a pirate. He seemed
to discover his potential in this new role, quickly establishing the Dark Wing fleet and gaining a reputation as a ruthless and efficient
leader. (PP)
Abinyshi
this race of slender reptilians was native to the planet Inysh. Their limbs are long and supple, and their tails end in a fork. The Abinyshi
developed space travel at about the same time as humans, although their technology never matched the levels of the Corellians or
Duros. They used starships to colonize several nearby worlds, but their overall population never blossomed enough for them to expand
further. Their numbers were greatly diminshed after the Empire discovered the reserves of kalonterium in the planet's crust. The Empire
stripped the planet of its minerals without regard for the native lifeforms, and the toxic pollution it produced nearly wiped out the
Abinyshi. The Abinyshi were believed to be extinct, but several individuals came forth as the Alliance gained support. (AE, SWJ14)
Ablor
this was one of the four main continents found on the planet Veron. (PG1)
Abo
an Imperial slang word used to denote any indigenous lifeform to a planet. (SME)
abo b'Yenntarr
this was the Bosph term used to describe the Force, and translated into Basic as "the power of the unknown spirits." (SWJ13)
Abonshee
this was the proper name of the planet known as Masterhome. The name Masterhome was given by the planet's native race, the
Anointed People. It was discovered by the Old Republic some ninety years before the Battle of Yavin. Abonshee was a temperate,
Earth-like world with an abundance of hardy plantlife and reptilian fauna. (SWCP, MB, AE)
Aboukir
this New Republic warship was destroyed at the Battle of N’zoth. (TT)
Abran
this star was the central body in the Abran System. (TBSB)
Abran Belt
this asteroid belt contained the mining colony B'knos. (TBSB)
Abrax Cognac
a pale blue, alcoholic distilled spirit. It was favored by New Republic General Salm. (XWN)
Abregado-rae Spaceport
a once-decrepit establishment, it has been refurbished since the New Republic came into power. (HTTE, DFR)
Abregado
see Abregado-Rae (HTTE)
Abregado-Rae
the primary planet in the Abregado system, Abregado-Rae is located in the Borderlands region. The homeworld of the Gado race,
Abregado-Rae is a temperate world whose day lasts 23 standard hours, and whose orbit lasts 349 local days. Since the fall of the
Empire, Abregado-Rae has become a civilized world, although it still maintains a large base of smugglers. The planetary government,
in an effort to reducecrime and keep the peace, has severly restricted individual freedoms for its citizens. (HTTE, DFR, HTSB, EGP)
Abric
a crew member of Niles Ferrier. (TLC)
Abrihom
an Alliance platform supply station destroyed during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE)
Abrion sector
area of the galaxy which contains Ukio. (TLC)
Abrogator
this Imperial Dreadnaught served as the flagship of the fleet dispatched to Saloch 2 in order to subdue the Lortan fanatics perpetrating
the Reslian Purge. (MBF)
Absit
this planet, subjugated by the Empire during the Galactic Civil War, is the homeworld of the Yatir race of humanoids. (ISB)
Absolutists
Selonians who, during the time of Trackan Sal-Solo's rise to power, were determined that the planetary repulsors should be used as a
weapon to allow the Selonians to forcefully gain their independence from the New Republic. (AS)
Absorbmat
any material which can absorb liquids, absorbmats are often used as drink coasters. (HSR)
Abubaka II
this starship was often used by Alton Lochner and his team of Alliance agents. (AIR)
Abuf
this city was located on the Sesto continent of the planet Garnib. (PG1)
ABX-110
this was the model number of Loronar's tube-launched ABC Scrambler. (GG10)
Abyss
one of the two binary stars that dominate the Byss-Abyss system. (GG4)
Abyss, The
1) this was one of the many podraces which meandered through the cloud-cities of the planet Ord Ibanna during the last decades of the
Old Republic. (RAC)
2) this deep-reaching, vertical slice of Imperial City was located on Coruscant. The headquarters of the New Republic Intelligence
agency, known as the Mirage, were located well below the surface of the planet, within the Abyss itself. (HT)
Abyssin
an alien race native to the planet Byss (not the same Byss that the reborn Emperor Palpatine used as his power base), these tall
humanoids have long, well-muscled limbs and a single, slitted eye. The eye of the Abyssin has twin lenses and dual focal planes, which
allows the Abyssin some measure of depth perception. They have incredible regenerative ability, and actually consume their own body
mass and rebuild cells. An average Abyssin body cell is replaced every 80 hours. Many of the normal organs found in pairs in other
races are singular in the Abyssin, but can be regenerated if injured. They are a nomadic race, with no substantial exports. Thus, the
planet has been relatively ignored by traders. The primary visitors to the planet are slavers who come to export the Abyssin themselves.
When two tribes of Abyssin meet, they will either enter into a Trade (if water and food are plentiful, gaunts, weapons, or young are
exchanged) or a Blooding (a fight to the death for water rights). The Abyssin have greenish-tan skin and long arms that reach to the
ground when they walk. Their hands end in sharp claws. Although Abyssin can live to be over 300 years in age, their ability to
regenerate gradually decreases. Those Abyssin who can no longer regenerate themselves usually walk into the desert and dies. Those
that refuse to die are ritually stoned by younger Abyssin. (GG4, SA)
Ac'fren Spur
this side-path of the Sisar Run connects to the run at a shadowport which isn't on any known map. It connected the Si'Klaata Cluster
with Sriluur by way of Ques. Much of the Spur was harassed by the Disac pirate gang, until Ket Maliss wiped them out. Sprax believed
that a cluster of pirates survived, and hid on an unspecified planet along the Spur. (SSR)
Academy, The
an elite training and educational institution, the original goal of the Academy (during the Old Republic and early parts of the Emperor's
New Order) was to train personnel for various space-going tasks. Under Palpatine, though, the goal was twisted to become an Imperial
training center. There is no single location, although the Academy's most renowned training center is on Raithal. The basic training
program lasts 30 months. (SW, JS, COTF, ISB)

Accolux Township
this Yedagon city was supposedly attacked and destroyed by the Lords of Dismay Flightknife, during the civil war which broke out on
Adumar due to Tomer Darpen's treacherous schemes. In reality, the flatcam reports of the battle were faked, in an effort to keep the
Empire from learning that the Adumari had sided with the New Republic. The reports were meant to hold off any Imperial reprisal
because of the Adumari choice until a New Republic fleet could arrive to defend Adumar. (SOA)
Accu-accelerator
this is part of the ignition system used on the sublight engines of many capital ships. (CFG)
Accuser
1) this Star Destroyer served the Empire as a patrol ship during the period leading up to the Battle of Endor, monitoring the shipping
lanes for criminals and members of the Alliance. Under Imperial duty, the Accuser was in the Tatooine System when Boba Fett arrived
with the frozen body of Han Solo. Darth Vader gave the Star Destroyer and the rest of its fleet the order to stand down and let Fett
deliver Solo's body to Jabba the Hutt. Tycho Celchu was assigned to the Accuser during his first stint of Imperial duty. He was talking to
his family on Alderaan when the planet was destroyed by the first Death Star. It was later one of the first Imperial-I class Star
Destroyers the New Republic captured after the Battle of Endor. In a bold and reckless action, Han Solo and Lieutenant Page literally
talked their way onto the bridge of the ship, and Solo himself – dressing in a stolen officer’s uniform – relieved the ship’s commander of
duty and took control of the ship. It was later renamed Emancipator. Note that X-Wing: Isard's Revenge claims the Accuser is an
Imperial-II class ship. (DE1, MTS, WG, IR, CCG11, TBSB)
2) this Ghtroc Industries Class 720 freighter was owned and operated by Kal-tan-shi, and was obtained when the Tiss’shar acquired a
bounty from the Lesser Plooriod Cluster during his tenure with House Paramexor. The ship proved to be quite durable, which was a
blessing for Kal-tan-shi because he was not a terribly gifted mechanic. He worked hard to ensure that the ship wasn’t damaged during a
hunt, but he never stopped to worry about the ship. It was armed with a double-laser cannon and a turret-mounter laser cannon. (AIR)

Acid Root

Ackbar
Mon Calamarian Rebel Navy Admiral, later promoted to the position of Commander-in-Chief of the New Republic. He was captured
when the Empire took over Calamari, and was presented to Grand Moff Tarkin as a personal slave. He followed Tarkin around
everywhere, all the while collecting information about the Imperial war machine, in hopes that he could escape and provide the
knowledge to the Alliance. He gained limited knowledge about the Death Star in this fashion, enough to make him fear for the safety
and future of the galaxy. When Tarkin decided to move to a permanent post on the Death Star, Ackbar was to be brought along with
him. However, Tarkin's shuttle was attacked by an elite force whose goal was to assassinate Tarkin. They failed only when an Imperial
Star Destroyer arrived to drive off the attackers, but they managed to rescue Ackbar in the attack. From that point on, Ackbar served
the Alliance faithfully, using his knowledge of Imperial doctrine wherever possible. He was in command at the Battle of Endor, guiding
the space battle over the second Death Star and drawing fire from the ships that were to destroy space station's central power core.
Following the formation of the New Republic, Ackbar became one of the Republic's ruling members, until Councilor Fey'lya used
incriminating evidence against him in an effort to discredit Ackbar. When Fey'lya's plans were revealed, Ackbar was reinstated as a
New Republic dignitary. He was away from Calamari when the reborn Emperor Palpatine attacked the planet. Later, when he and Leia
were on a diplomatic mission to Vortex, his shuttle was sabotaged, causing it to crash into, and destroy, the Cathedral of Winds. This
was part of Furgan's plan to bring down the New Republic from the inside, and severely degraded Ackbar's self-confidence. He
returned to Calamari to help rebuild what was still unrepaired from the Emperor's attack, and was on the planet when Admiral Daala
chose to attack Calamari. He and Leia were able to rally the minimal Calamarian defense, stalemating Daala's attack until help from the
New Republic arrived. Ackbar chose to remain on Calamari until Furgan attempted to finalize his plans by kidnapping baby Anakin Solo
on Anoth. He then left the planet and arrived at Anoth in time to rescue baby Anakin. This demonstration of the Empire's desparate
attempts to regain control of the galaxy helped to crystallize Ackbar's resolve, and brought him out of his self-imposed shell and back
into the New Republic's government.He remained a vital asset to the Republic throughout the Black Fleet Crisis and the negotiation of
peace with the Empire, but when Borsk Fey'lya was named the New Republic's Chief of State, Ackbar decided to retire from active duty
and return to Calamari. Ackbar was portrayed in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi by Tim Rose. (ROTJ, HTTE, DA, COTF, MTS, VOF, VP)
Ackbar Slash
this desparate starship maneuver was developed by the Alliance's Admiral Ackbar. The slash involved sending your warships directly
through the line formed by your opponent's ships at top speed. If done correctly, and if the Force was with you, this maneuver resulted
in two things. First, any of the opponent's ships who missed your ships actually shot up their own ships. Second, it scattered the
opponent's ships, breaking their line. (WS)
Ackdool
this Mon Calamari was a Commander in the New Republic Navy some twenty years after the Battle of Endor. He was in command of
the cruiser Mediator, during the time when it was dispatched to Rhommamool. His appointment to Commander was met with some
discontent by the New Republic's elite, not because he was one of the few remaining Mon Cal in the Navy, but because they believed
he was given command of the Mediator simply because he was Mon Calamari. Ackdool was forced to act when Nom Anor launched a
series of warheads against the city of Osa-Prime, an attack he claimed was initiated by Rhommamoolian officials. (VP)

Action II Freighter
one of the first freighter models produced in the Action series by Corellian Engineering Corporation. Carib Devist used one to fly to
Bothawui, during the build-up of warships following the Caamas Incident. Hidden inside the freighter was a squadron of TIE
Interceptors. When Devist's and the Millennium Falcon were caught in the tractor beams of the Tyrannic, Devist detonated the Action II,
with a series of explosions that allowed his crew to blast away in the Interceptors. The explosion freed the Falcon from the tractor
beam, allowing them all to return to open space and expose the Tyrannic. (VOF)
Action IV Freighter
a trapezoidal, medium bulk freighter built by the Corellian Engineering Corporation, the Action IV measures 100 meters in length and
can carry 30,000 cubic meters of cargo with a maximum mass of 75,000 metric tons. Its inner holds can be individually adapted to
various pressurization and climatic needs. It has no weapons systems and no defensive shielding. They require a dedicated crew of 8,
and have no passenger facilities. (HTTE, SWSB)
Action V Transport
another starship in the popular Corellian Engineering Corporation Action series, the Action V measures 115 meters in length. It requires
a crew of 10, and can hold up to 80,500 metric tons of cargo. It is unarmed, and has minimal shielding. (DFRSB)

Adamant
1) this Victory-class Star Destroyer was sent by Grand Admiral Thrawn to intercept Mara Jade at Abregado. (DFR)
2) a New Republic bulk cruiser that was captured by Qorl over Coruscant. The ship was loaded with armaments and hyperdrive
components, which Brakiss and the leaders of the Shadow Academy needed to help shore up the new Imperial Navy. It was on its way
to Kuat, but was being inspected by Admiral Ackbar at the time. Qorl's forces disabled the ship's weapons and communications, but left
its shields and engines operational. The ship was towed to the Shadow Academy, which was cloaked within Coruscant's system. Note
that Jedi Under Seige claims the Adamant was attacked by the Shadow Academy at Kashyyyk. The Second Imperium used the
hyperdrive cores and turbolaser batteries from the ship, as well as New Republic shield codes, to outfit their own ships. The resulting
confusion allowed the Second Imperium to skip inside Republic defenses, until Ackbar used the shield codes against them and dropped
all their shields. The Imperium’s fleet was then decimated by Republic cruisers. (LO, JUS)
Adamantine
this New Republic escort cruiser supported the Borealis during Leia Organa-Solo’s mission to meet with Seti Ashgad. The ship was one
of the first to succumb to the Death Seed plague launched by Ashgad and Dzym, and was stolen by Ashgad’s people and destroyed on
a world far from Nam Chorios. Hand-held weapons from the crew were later used to arm the Newcomers on the planet, in the uprising
planned by Ashgad and Dzym. (POT)

Adar
1) this Imperial Prefect controlled the planet Denevar during the Galactic Civil War. He accused Reson Nath of a variety of crimes,
including abetting a known criminal and conspiring against him. The trial was presided over by Janq Paramexor, and overseen by Moff
Gorliz. As was often the case in respect to the various guilds sanctioned by the Empire, Nath was subject to the rules of the Paramexor
Guild of Hunters. Her punishment to face her accuser in armed combat. Adar, a thin man without much physical training, realized that
he would be killed in combat against Nath, and withdrew the charges. However, Moff Gorliz had already placed a bet with Janq
Paramexor that Adar would last at least ten minutes in the battle, and ordered them to begin combat. (GG10)
2) this winged reptile evolved on the hostile world of Omiddelon III. Individuals could grow to length reaching three meters, and they
hunted in large packs. Adars had long, scaled bodies which had a row of short spines along the dorsal ridge. Their heads resembled
scorpions, with a flat skull surrounded by a pair of strong mandibles. Adars have high metabolisms, and stored water and food in their
tails. When food was scarce and their internal reserves were too low to sustain activity, adars could go into a trance-like state and wait
for prey to come to them. (COG)
Adarga

Adari
this planet is the homeworld of the Adarian race. It is covered with volcanic mountains, most of which are perpetually covered with
snow. Its year lasts 409 standard days. (GG12)
Adarian
an alien race native to the planet Adari, the Adarians are humanoids with unusual cranial structures. Their skulls are elongated and tall,
and have a large hole which goes completely through it. They have no ears or noses, and their mouth is ringed with sharp, bony ridges
instead of lips. The Adarians make up to the lack of ears with a covering of fine hairs along their skulls that pick up the vibration of
sound waves. A series of glands near the skin's surface allows them to smell. Their throats can be distended and filled with air, and the
resulting "long call" can be useful as a communication method or a kind of defensive action. The Adarians have a rigid caste system
which dominates their society, and the have evolved an advanced technology based on the use of super-cooled carbon-ice computers.
They were able to remain neutral during the Galactic Civil War by signing a non-agression treaty with the Empire, providing the Empire
with unlimited raw materials in return for their neutrality. (GG12)
Adarlon
this planet, located in the Minos Cluster, functioned as the Cluster's entertainment destination. By itself, Adarlon is a rugged,
mountainous world originally settled by a group of Old Republic altruists - many from Alderaan - for its beauty rather than its resources.
They were particularly well-funded, and their society grew into one of entertainment rather than survival. It was on Adarlon that the
holographic medium was developed as an entertainment staple, and music from the planet is also highly sophisticated. Its primary
industry was centered around tourism, and its temperate climate was well-suited to the various resorts and parks which operated there.
Adarlon has a day which lasts 21 standard hours, and a year which lasts 381 local days. (SWAJ, GG6)
Adarloon
this planet is home to one of the most famous opera companies in the galaxy. The famous opera singer Neile Janna is also a native of
Adarloon. (SWAJ)
Adas
this ancient Sith King was the gatekeeper of the Sith holocron used by the leader of Onderon, some 4,000 years before the Battle of
Yavin. Adas was a huge man who had used the power of the Dark Side of the Force to conquer his homeworld some 24,000 years
before the Great Sith War. Sith scholars of the period believed that Adas created the holocron more as a testament to his achievements
than as a teaching device. (TOJC)
Adazian Liebke
this Weequay was a Major in the Alliance's Special Forces unit on New Kisge. A native of Sriluur, Liebke served in Dnalvec's militia,

Adnerem
this race of tall, thin humanoids was native to the planet Adner. They are distinguished by their large, triangular-shaped heads, which
have a prominent bulge or knob in the center of their forehead. They have wide, flat eyes, and their thin arms end in hands which have
four thin, talon-tipped fingers. The Adnerem were known for their desire to improve their socio-economic positions in life, which often
required them to work for the betterment of their individual families, or steri. The average Adnerem tended to be asocial and introverted,
but they were often found in small groups. A well-known phrase described the Adnerem this way: "Two Adnerem are a party, four a

Adumar
this remote world evolved outside the mainstream of galactic growth, and was first contacted by the New Republic some 8 years after
the Battle of Endor. The planet itself was located on the inner edge of Wild Space, and was colonized some 10,000 years before the
Battle of Yavin by separatists who had rebelled against the Old Republic. They had been defeated by the Republic's forces, and given
the option of death or resettlement. The human natives of the planet, who call themselves the Adumari, have a complex social structure
which was based on personal honor and triumph over one's enemies. The primary industries of the planet were based on the
production of war materiel, and they were skilled in the manufacture of proton torpedoes. They lacked a world government when a New
Republic mapping ship accidentally found the planet and first contacted them, but the Adumari quickly learned that the Republic was
not the only power in the galaxy. The perator of Cartann, Pekaelic ke Teldan, offered both the remnants of the Empire and the New
Republic the chance to prove themselves and earn the alliance of Adumar in what basically became a popularity contest between
Wedge Antilles and Turr Phennir. The perator himself was eventually ousted in favor of his son, who was more receptive to creating a
democratic world government, where his father had wanted a government controlled by Cartann leaders. In the end, Adumar welcomed
the New Republic and became a member world. Adumar has two moons. (SOA)
Adumari
this is the name used by the human inhabitants of the planet Adumar. The descendants of a group of people who rebelled against the
Old Republic and were defeated, the Adumari continued to be a rebellious society even after they settled the planet. Their records
indicated that there had been at least two huge wars which reduced the people to barbarism, but their tenatcious nature had brought
them back each time. They had a complex social structure which was based on personal honor and triumph over one's enemies. Any
Adumari could challenge another Adumari in armed combat, which was usually fought to the death unless the victory chose to lessen
the prestige of his victory. Combat was the primary sport in Adumari society, with contests in ground-based combat and aerial
dogfighting. The techniques developed by the Adumari were crude by modern galactic standards, since there were very few battles that
involved more than two participants, and each was usually fighting for prestige rather than learning from past mistakes. Even when the
Adumari were contacted by the New Republic and urged to form a world government, the creation of the govnerment was chosen first
by the perator of Cartann, Pekaelic ke Teldan, in an effort to beat his rivals to the punch. However, this Cartann-based government was
met with opposition from several other nations, including the Yedagonian Confederacy and Halbegardia. In the end, it was discovered
that the New Republic diplomat to Adumar, Tomer Darpen, was leading the Cartann leadership down a path he had chosen. The
perator of Cartann opted to retire rather than be executed, and abdicated the throne to his son. A more representative world
government was formed, and the Adumari elected to join the New Republic. (SOA)
Adumari Union
this was the name of the world government envisioned by Escalion, perator of Yedagon, for the planet Adumar. It was endorsed by the
perators of Halbegardia, Thozzelling, and Tetanne, and they offered the nation of Cartann - under the leadership of a new perator,
Balass ke Teldan - a chance to join it and help create its laws and policies. The Adumari Union was eventually admitted to the New
Republic. (SOA)
Adventurer
this Verpine starship is a pre-Empire vintage with a lifting body design and hoverjets in place of repulsorlifts. It had no weapons or
shields, and did not have an astromech droid for navigation. It was designed to be a small, personal sporting craft. (BTS)
Adventurer
this Crescent-class Mark II transport was owned by Aelon Reglis, after he decided that he was going to be the first member of his family
to travel among the stars. He gave the Adventurer to his daughter, Lynx, as a graduation present after she graduated from the Imperial
Academy. She found little free time to actually use the ship, and it only saw action when she impersonated the Alliance agent Sapphire
on a mission to Kira Sector. Shortly afterward, Lynx was implicated in a plot to steal military secrets and was arrested. The Adventurer
was impounded by Imperial forces and later dismantled. (SS)
Advising Circle
this section of the primary city of Kegan was used by V-Tan and O-Vieve as a base from which they ruled the planet. Every Keganite

Advisory Council
this seven-member governmental body was created by the New Republic to act as a balance to the power of the Chief of State. The
Advisory Council was also a sounding board for the Chief of State's ideas. The Advisory Council could revoke the orders of the Chief of
State, and could impeach the Chief of State if five of seven members voted for it. (RASB)
Advozse
this term describes a single member of the Advozsec race. (GG12, CCG2)
Advozsec
an alien race characterized by their short stature, large black eyes, and enlarged cranium. Their skulls are punctuated by a short, thick
horn which protrudes from the center of their forehead. Their ears are pointed. Native to the planet Riflor, the Advozsec have evolved in
the planet's dense, ash-filled atmosphere. Their large eyes allow them to see in the murky light. Riflor's constant tectonic activity has
instilled a sense of skepticism and pessimism, as the Advozsec cities are continually being rebuilt after natural disasters. A herbivorous
race, the Advozsec have developed technology that mirrors much of the galaxy, although they tend to build it on a smaller, more
transportable scale. (GG12)
Adz-class Destroyer
this Imperial starship design was used as a patrol ship in many outlying regions, and was developed after the death of Grand Admiral
Thrawn. Their primary armament consisted of three quad-laser cannons and three dual-cannon ion batteries. They could achieve .55
past lightspeed, and maintained six fighters within her bays. One of the primary technological advances used in the Adz-class destroyer
was the inclusion of an array of slave circuitry that allowed a crew of 24 to handle virtually every system. At 150 meters in length, the
Adz-class patrol destroyer required 12 gunners and could transport up to 8 passengers and 4 prisoners in its brig. (TT, CTD)

Af'El
homeworld of the Defel race, it is a large, high-gravity world orbitting the ultraviolet supergiant Ka'Dedus. The planet has a thick
atmosphere but no ozone layer, and so unltraviolet light passes directly to the surface. Heavy atmospheric gases then block most of the
remaining wavelengths of light. For these reasons, all lifeforms on the planet have evolved with the ability to see in ultraviolet light. The
planet's main export is the metal meleenium. At one time, Kuat Drive Yards mined Af'El for many of its natural minerals. (DFR, GG4,

Agamar
this planet, located in the Lahara Sector of the Outer Rim Territories, was the home of Keyan Farlander. It was the site of an Imperial
invasion during the early years of Palpatine's reign as Emperor. Mon Mothma visited there following the Ghorman Massacre, in an effort
to help the Agamarians understand Palpatine's evil. Later, it was the site of a hidden Alliance base, early in the Galactic Civil War. The
natives of the planet are known to be rough-hewn farmers known for their stubbornness. During the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong
invasion, Agamar served as a stopping point for refugees fleeing the Outer Rim worlds under attack. This support was given after Leia
Organa Solo and Danni Quee pleaded with the planetary leaders for support. As the Yuuzhan Vong stepped up their invasion, Agamar
remained a pathway to freedom for those Outer Rim worlds which were attacked. However, when the Yuuzhan Vong learned of the
effects of bafforr tree pollen on their vonduun crab armor, they overran Agamar in an effort to extend their control to Ithor. (XW, DF,

Darth Vader. (JASB)
Ahleazah
this Mon Calamari female was captured during the Empire's initial occupation of Calamari and forced to work with the medical corps.

camp in order to ensure she didn't develop any relationships. When she saved the life of a minor Imperial Navy officer, the grateful
officer brought Ahleazah to his starship, where she was allowed to work with and learn from the advanced medical facilities on the ship.
During her treatment of an Alliance pilot who was to undergo interrogation, Ahleazah decided that the time had come for her to act
against the Empire which had destroyed her family. She treated the pilot, then got both of them to an escape pod just as the Imperial

bony armor is covered with intricate, painted symbols that resemble the markings seen on their strangely-organic starships. Their tails,
also covered with thick plates, are prehensile and often used in defense and attack. The Aing-Tii are also Force-sensitive, although they
don't use it and control it the way Jedi Knights do. No one is sure exactly why, but the Aing-Tii patrol the Kathol Outback between the
Marcol Void and the Kathol Rift looking for slave ships. They incapacitate the slavers with their Sanhedrim starships, then free the
slaves. (KO)

he was young, and the monk taught him about hand-to-hand combat and boxing, as well as music. After leaving the monastery, Ak-Rev
made a living as a street fighter, and always paid his tithes to Am-Shak. Jabba once saw Ak-Rev - who adopted the name of one of his
slavemasters - playing drums at a religious ceremony, and offered him a job on Tatooine. Ak-Rev accepted, and played the huge drum
in Jabba's Tatooine palace with Umpass-Stay. He also trained many of Jabba's guards. Although he survived the swath of destruction
that followed Jabba's death, Ak-Rev was killed just days later when Tusken Raiders attacked his landspeeder. (MTSE, CCG9)

years her senior, and the marriage lasted a year until Andras passed away. Some time later, she sensed the presence of Luke
Skywalker, although she did it through the command of the White Current, rather than the Force. She travelled to Coruscant and found
Luke, even though he'd hidden himself away in Darth Vader's old residence. She came to him with an offer to help him find his mother
and therey ease some of his emotional burden. She took Luke to her homeworld of Lucazec, but they failed to find any information on
Luke's mother. They did find a Fallanassi marking indicating where they fled to, and left Lucazec only after battling with Imperial agents
left behind to intercept the Fallanassi. They continued to follow a path known only to Akanah, travelling to Teyr and Atzerri before
arriving on J't'p'tan. Akanah was very secretive about their search, which worried Luke about her motives. (BTS, SOL)

Aks Moe
this Gran was a native of the planet Malastare, and rose to become one of the planet’s primary political forces. As the Ambassador of
the Congress of Malastare, Aks Moe was eventually elected as his planet’s Senator to the Old Republic, and proved to be a skillful
politician. However, like many of the Senators of his day, Moe was nothing more than a politician, and worked strictly by the laws and
protocols put in place by the Republic. As the Old Republic rotted from within, Senators like Moe continued to demand that every item
be put to a vote, and the Senate became bogged down in its own inefficiency. When Queen Amidala traveled to Coruscant to protest
the Trade Federation’s invasion of her homeworld of Naboo, Aks Moe was one of the first Senators to demand a commission be
dispatched to Naboo to investigate the situation. Aks Moe was acted by Mark Coulier and voiced by Marc Silk in Star Wars: Episode I –
The Phantom Menace. (SW1, TPM, IS1)
Akul Witig
this Quarren served the Alliance as a Lieutenant within the security corps which protected the Calamari shipyards during the early
stages of the Galactic Civil war. Later, after earning the respect of his Mon Calamari superiors, Akul Witig worked undercover with
Ma'w'shiye on Karideph, as a member of Eclipse Team. Witig was known as an aquatic wilderness fighter within Eclipse Team. (SWJ4,

Akwin
this aquatic race is indigenous to the planet Lazerian IV, and descended from a species of savage sea creatures tens of thousands of
years ago. The Akwin are mammalians, with blue-green fur and six limbs. The upper set of limbs resemble human arms, and end in
three-fingered hands. The second set of limbs also resembles arms, but they originate from the midsection and end in flippers. The
lower set of limbs are normal legs that end in webbed feet. Akwins also have thick tails which end with a flat fluke, which they use to
propel themselved through the water. The long, flat head of the Akwin is covered with cilia, which can be nearly any color from white to
blue to black. They breath via a combination of gills and two blowholes at the tops of their heads. The Akwin raise their food on
underwater ranches, and live peacefully in huge cities on the ocean floor. They have developed a sophisticated, water-resistant
technology which is rarely shared with off-worlders or the native humans. The humans of Lazerian IV believe the Akwin are some sort
of legend, a belief fostered by the Akwin to keep the humans from discovering them. The Akwin are aloof and condescending to races
which breathe air. While the human population has little information on the Akwin - they believe them to be legends, after all - the Akwin
have a great understanding of human history and culture. (TSK, AE)

AL-BRT-34-X3
this BRT-series computer was installed at the University of Calamar on Esseles some two hundred years before the Battle of Yavin.
Like the rest of the BRT series, Albert (as he was known to his friends) was an efficient machine that controlled much of the school's
daily operations. However, like the rest of the BRT series, Albert's programming was reduced severly, and he was left sorting
registration records and scheduling classes. When Albert invited the university's faculty to a party to celebrate his 200th year of service,
only three members showed up. Albert went into a sulk, and began to ruminate within its own databases. Albert stumbled upon a cell of
Alliance supporters within the student body, and began to assist them in their struggles against the Empire. He even discovered that
one of their number was an Imperial spy, and arranged to have him arrested and removed from the cell. During this time, Albert also
discovered that much of his programming remained intact, despite the attempt to reduce it many years earlier. He devoted himself to
assisting the Alliancein any way possible, keeping his true abilities a secret. (CRO)

Alaras, Cinto
a native of Rya, this man was a designer and medical consultant, employed by Neuro-Saav during the early years of the Galactic Civil
War. Assigned to the facilities on Tauber, Doctor Alaras earned a reputation as a contributor rather than an inventor, and was
suspected by many of his colleagues of plotting to steal their designs. He was educated at the Carosi XII Academy of Medicine shortly
after the Battle of Yavin, and the position at Neuro-Saav was the first - and only - job offer he received. (AIR)

Aldar Beedo
this Glymphid hitman was also one of the Outer Rim’s best podracer pilots. Aldar was recognizable by his long, thin snout and gangly
arms. It was Aldar Beedo who killed the Fluggrian crimelord who was Kam Nale’s father, and earned him a bounty in several systems.
Beedo was later hired by Wan Sandage to eliminate Sebulba, in hopes that the Dug’s domination of the podracing circuits could be
broken. However, Beedo was unable to do this during the Boonta Eve Classic race won by Anakin Skywalker. Beedo drove a Manta
RamAir Mark IV Flat-Twin Turbojet racer. (TPM, RAC, IG1)

Aldera
this city was the capital of the planet Alderaan, before it was destroyed by the first Death Star. The city was built on an island in the
middle of a large lake formed eons ago by the impact of a huge meteor. Many of the planet's dignitaries were housed in Aldera, and the
famous Alderaan University was situated there. Bail Organa once maintained a palace in the city, where his study overlooked the lake
and was surrounded by gardens. (ISU, POT)
Alderaan
Princess Leia's small starship, she piloted it under the alias Lelila in order to travel unobtrusively. (CS, TNR)
Alderaan
this planet's human inhabitants were among the most peaceful beings in the galaxy. They were in continually harmony with the world
around them, and chose to build their cities on top of sandstone bluffs and on stilts in the shallow seas. Their towering cities were built
this way so that they wouldn't trample the grass or destroy the seas. The inhabitants of the planet catalogued over 8,000 species of
grasses on the plains, and more than that in species of flowers. At the age of seventeen, an Alderaanian was considered and adult. It
was a well-known custom that the adult members of Alderaan’s society never cut their hair, but allowed it to grow into long tresses.
Alderaan was a staunch supporter of the Old Republic, and many of its inhabitants served in the armed forces. Following the Clone
Wars and the widespread destruction caused by it, the government of Alderaan outlawed all weapons. They placed all weapons aboard
a transport ship and sent the ship out on a never-ending series of random hyperspace jumps. The homeworld of the Organa family,
Alderaan's role in galactici politics took a detour during the later years of the Old Republic. As Palpatine continued to gain power, the
Organas began organizing a resistance to his Presidency. With the implementation of the New Order, Alderaan became one of the
primary supporters of the newly-formed Alliance to Restore the Republic. However, the outspoken dissatisfaction with Palpatine's rule
led to the destruction of the planet. When Leia Organa was captured aboard the Tantive IV over Tatooine, she was taken to Grand Moff
Tarkin for questioning. Tarkin tried to obtain information from her, but she proved too strong. Even when Tarkin threatened to destroy
Alderaan with the new Death Star, Leia lied to him about the location of the Alliance's base. Tarkin took no chances, however, and
ordered the destruction of the planet. Alderaan was blown to pieces just before the Battle of Yavin, and all life on the planet was
destroyed. Some 60,000 natives survived because they were off-world at the time, and were granted a unique status within the
Alliance, as well as the New Republic. (SW, SWR, CPL, GA, ISU, SOL, RD)
Alderaan Alliance
a collection of the survivors of the destroyed planet, they outwardly denounced the Empire's use of force. Once the Galactic Civil War
was ended, they compiled a list of all the known designers and developers of the Death Star project. They used this list to bring the
developers out of hiding to stand trial for their crimes. (COJ)
Alderaan Biotics
this hydroponics company supported Alderaan's need for foodstuffs and other organic supplies until the planet was destroyed by the
first Death Star. They once established an operational facility on Borleias, but the site was abandoned after Alderaan was destroyed,
and the faciity was staffed with maintenance droids and abandonded. It was discovered years later by Evir Derricote, who rerouted a
large amount of Imperial monies to re-establish the site. He used it to produce the initial strains of the Krytos virus until Borleias was
linerated by Rogue Squadron after a pair of engagements. Alderaan Biotics later became the New Republic's primary manufacturing
facility for the creation of rylca. (XWN, KT)

an exclusive Alderaanian school attended by Leia Organa. (WEG)
Alderaan University
this famous institute was heralded as one of the most forward-thinking schools in the galaxy, and produced some of the best minds in
many disciplines. Founded in Aldera by the great thinker Collus, it was designed to isolate its students from the outside world. Collus
believed that this would lead to uniterrupted stretches of time that would allow student to contemplate their studies. Over the years,
many other schools were built around Collus' nucleus. These "pods" were developed, not just by Alderaanian, but by any race wanting
to further their knowledge through contemplation. The Ithorians had a botanical pod, for instance. During the early years of the New
Order, the University became a center of anti-Imperial dissent. Many of the Alliance's brightest minds were schooled and recruited at
the University, including the poet Hari Seldona. (ISU)

Alee Aroval
this Nimbanese data forger was surrounded by rumors of great associations with the Klatooinan Trade Guild and the Hutts themselves.
He never discussed his past, but nevertheless was one of the best forgers in the galaxy. He managed to obtain a Bureau of Ships
Services interface plug, allowing him to make nearly perfect alterations to a starship captain's permits and licenses. Of course, his fees
were commensurate with his workmanship. (PSG)
Aleema
Satal Keto's cousin, and partner in the overthrowing of the Tetan monarchy just prior to the Sith War. She and Satal Keto learned much
from their tutors, but became curious about the Sith magic during a trip to Coruscant. They stole a book of Sith lore from a museum on
the planet, and returned to the Empress Teta System. From the book, they learned many ways to harness the power of the Dark Side
of the Force through the Sith incantations. Aleema soon discovered that she was adept at the creation of illusions. She was
instrumental in bringing down the Lord Keto and his supporters, tricking them with horrible images of Adegan Eels and terrible lizards.
She later put her powers to a grander scale, creating illusions of space grazers to fool the combined Jedi-Republic forces during their
battle to recover the Tetan system. She was mortally wounded, however, when Nomi Sunrider detected the use of the Dark Side and
tried to stop her. She recovered from these wounds, to help her cousin continue the Krath struggle for power. She eventually became
the mistress of Ulic Qel-Droma, seducing him as he was seduced by the Dark Side of the Force. Ulic's desire for power and glory
overshadowed Aleema's attentions, and she was scorned by him when he launched his attack on Coruscant. She then turned the
ancient Mandalore warriors to the Krath, but they too left her to fight along side Ulic. Near the end of the Great Sith War, Aleema and
Crado tried to destroy the combined Old Republic and Jedi fleets in the Cron Cluster. Her knowledge of the Sith lore was augmented by
the use of certain Sith weapons, one of which was the ancient starship used by Naga Sadow when he eluded the Old Republic in the
Denarii System. She attempted to use Sadow's crystals to rip the core from a star and hurl it at the fleet. Although she succeeded in
destroying most of the starships, she failed to control the power she wielded. The liberated solar core ignited the cores of the
surrounding suns, and created an intense, multi-star supernova. The supernova engulfed three Auril Systems and the planet Ossus. It
also killed Aleema and Crado, along with Dace Diath, Shoaneb Culu, and Qrrrl Toq. (DLS, TSW)

Alexan
this was the codename of the Imperial Governor controlled the planet Jastro III ans its surrounding system during the Galactic Civil
War. He used it during his intervention between his daughter and Selas Ferr, pretending to be a supporter of the Alliance. The
Governor' daughter was in love with Ferr, despite the fact that he was a member of the rebel underground. Alexan provided assistance
to Ferr, and agreed to help him rescue a group of rebel prisoners in return for the safety of the Governor's daughter. Neither Ferr nor
the daughter knew Alexan was the Governor, but the rescue of the prisoners and Alexan's daughter was a success. Unfortunately,
Alexan was severely wounded in the escape attempt, and died of his wounds. Only after the escape did Ferr and the daughter realize
Alexan's true identity. (HR)
Alfestril System
Captain Nevik of the Devastator believed that suspected Alliance undercover agents were working in this system, shortly before the

Alfreda Goot
this Togorian bounty hunter was known for her flowing red hair, which she allowed to fall out of her blast helmet. She wore a modified
version of the Mandalorian armor made famous by Boba Fett, although Alfreda's armro wasn't as sophisticated. She had installed a pair
of heavy-duty climbing claws in the wrists. When she learned that Jabba the Hutt had placed a bounty on Han Solo's head, shortly after
the Battle of Yavin, she decided to try and collect on it. She devised a plan in which she captured Leia Organa on Ord Mantell, and then
forced Han to accept a race to the Dockside Cafe on Mos Eisley. The winner of the race would recover Leia alive. Han had no choice
but to accept the wager, but he managed to meet up with Captain Sodarra and his team of stormtroopers. This incident wasn't in
Alfreda's plans, so when Han showed up at the Dockside Cafe with an Imperial squadron behind him, Alfreda was forced into action.
She shot at Han and Sodarra, and a brief firefight ensued. During the fight, Han was able to shoot Alfreda and kill her, thereby
recovering Leia and avoiding capture. (SL)

this carnivorous fungus is native to the planet Gamorr, and resembles a 3-meter-tall umbrella. They grow in colonies in the forests, and
when they mature, the cap of the stalk releases thousands of spores into the wind. The spores can also be released when an animal
bumps into the stalk, and the animal can accidentally breathe in the spores. If this happens, the creature becomes an unwitting host for
a new colony of stalks. (SWJ10)

Alima
a native of Coruscant, Alima grew up in the Empire. He was a quick study, and progressed rapidly in the Imperial Navy. He was in
command of the Star Destroyer Conquest when it leveled much of Ithor's Cathor Hills before the Ithorians surrendered. However, when
Alima was given the opportunity to become the Captain of Darth Vader's flagship, Alima chose a demotion instead, realizing that
Vader's quick temper often made quick work of flagship Captains. His effectiveness to the Empire was not diminished, though, and
Alima was placed in charge of locating C-3PO and R2-D2 after the droids escaped from the Tantive IV. He discovered Momaw Nadon
in Mos Eisley, and quickly recognized his old Ithorian nemesis. He demanded that Nadon find the droids or the Empire would wipe out
his gardens. Nadon could not bring himself to betray the Alliance, and when the Millennium Falcon blasted out of Mos Eisley, Nadon
told the Imperial Prefect that Alima had disregarded Nadon's information pointing to the Falcon. This was as bold a lie as Nadon had
ever told, but it accomplished its purpose: the Prefect executed Alima on the spot. Nadon, adhering to the Law of Life, stole genetic
samples of Alima's DNA, and cloned it when he returned to Ithor. Alima's twin sons served Nadon, as punishment for their father's
actions. (TME)

Alkhara
a notorious bandit who roamed the Tatooine wastes, Alkhara used the B'omarr palace as his base for thirty-four years, sharing the
palace with the remaining B'omarr monks while he ravaged unwary moisture farmers. He allied his band of thieves with the Sand
People long enough to use their strength and ferocity to wipe out a police garrison. He then killed all of the Sand People that had
helped him. It was this cruel act that created the feud between Sand People and humans, a feud which continued for centuries after
Alkhara's death. When the Sand People sought to exact revenge on him, he fled to the B'omarr palace. (DS, ISU)
Alkherrodyne Propulsions
this corporation believed in producing products that failed in the field after a short period of time. This "programmed obsolescence"
meant that customers would have to buy another of their products in a short time, ensuring future profits. This policy got them into
trouble when they released the Azaria 66 unit for sale. The Azaria 66 began exploding under normal operating conditions, and
Alkherrodyne was hit with a number of lawsuits. Alkherrodyne, looking for a scapegoat to avoid penalties and fines, fingered Klaus
Vandangante as the engineer whose shoddy work led to the failure of the Azaria 66. They took Vandangante to court, and
professionally and financially bankrupted him. This was a short-lived victory, though, for public concern with Alkherrodyne products led
to poor sales and the eventual dissolution of Alkherrodyne altogether. (CSA)
All-Human Free-For-All
this gladiator-like event is held regularly in the Victory Forum of the city known as Dying Slowly. In the event, four humans (the
combatants are human, to make the fighting “even”) are placed in the arena and ordered to fight to the death. The last combatant
standing is declared the winner. The combatants are pulled from the criminal ranks, and the winner is usually given some form of
freedom. In general, the three largest combatants gang up on the weakest individual, killing him before going berserk against each
other. Han Solo once survived the Free-For-All, after being caught cheating at cards. This occurred when Han was a young man. The
Paradise Snare dates this event when Han was seventeen, alhtough Tales of the Bounty Hunters places it some fifteen years before
the Battle of Hoth. (TBH, TPS)

Alluuvia
this planet was discovered shortly after the Battle of Yavin, during an exploration mission funded by Radell Mining Corporation. Its
ownership was disputed by the Scourge, a pirate gang who tried to claim it as their own. Radell had sent the Gray Griffins to follow up
their exploration activities, but they were captured by the Scourge and held for ransom until a group of Alliance agents rescued them.
Alluuvia was an ocean world whose waters were desne with metals and minerals that made it toxic to off-worlders. Alluuvia was also
the homeworld of the Anguilla. The Empire's Imperial Mining, Limited, tried to establish a mining outpost on the planet, recognizing the
concentrations of alanium, doonium, and zersium were enough to fund any operation. The Anguilla, led by Anyar, opposed the Imperial
occupation, and with some help from the Alliance, they were able to drive off the Imperial. Anyar eventually agreed to allow Radell
Mining Corporation to mine the planet, so long as the Ithorian Iych-thae to oversee their work. (OE)

(TNR)
Almar
this minor world is the primary planet in the Almaran System. Located in the Elrood Sector, much of the planet was dedicated to the
tourist trade. When the Empire invaded the sector, the Alliance was able to erase the data files in the central computer of Almar Upside,
the planet's primary city. Dummy corporations were set up, and the planet remained outside of Imperial control. The Alliance then set
up a number of listening posts on the planet, in an effort to obtain information on the Imperial forces nearby. Almar is a pleasant world,
covered with tropical beaches, jungles, and wide plains of unusual orange grasses. (PG, TBSB)
Almar Upside

Almost Authentic
this was the name of a Surronian L19 freighter stolen by a group of pirates from Imperial Moff Aricos Dreleene. He had hoped to obtain
an L19a special edition, but discovered that his "bargain" was a run-of-the-mill L19. He invested a huge sum of credits to have outlaw
techs refit the ship to appear to be a true L19a, including modification of the serial numbers and transpoder codes, and Dreleene was
able to pass it off for many years. However, a band of pirates saw the First Edition and captured it, thinking they had acquired an L19a.
After learning that it was a fake, the pirates turned the Moff and the ship over to the Alliance. The Alliance refitted the ship, and
renamed it the Almost Authentic. The Alliance armed the ship with the stock twin blaster cannons as well as a turret-mounted ion
cannon. (SS)

this assassin worked for Dirk Balor during the Galactic Civil War. Wuho worked with a captive nigthmare demon known as Reist, which
he controlled with a lead-linde helmet and a forcefield bubble. Wuho was sent to capture Luke Skywalker in the Lapez System, and
cornered Luke on Lapez 3. Wuho sent Reist in first, with a homing device to locate his position later. Wuho followed in a shuttle, and
discovered that Reist had been badly injured by Luke in a fight. Wuho then engaged Luke himself, and was injured. This injury revealed
to Luke that Wuho was an android. Luke took parts from the droid body to repair his own damaged ship, leaving the cybernetic corpse
of Wuho behind on Lapez 3. (CSWDW)

Altronel, Ketrian
this woman, a native of the planet Hargeeva, grew up in a blue-collar family of cloth merchants. Her parents recognized her ability to
learn and study, and worked hard to ensure that she had a thorough education. Ketrian chose to study the field of geology, and was
awarded a scholarship to a university attached to the Imperial Academy. She excelled there, and was best known for her revolutionary
ideas in the field of metal sciences. She was also a collector of swords and knives, as she was fascinated with the ways in which metal
could be shaped to form the blades. She took up fencing, and through the sport she met Stevan Makintay. The two eventually fell in
love, and Ketrian “branded” him with a scar on the cheek when he tried to break up a duel between herself and another woman who
made advances toward him. Mak proposed marriage to her, which led to Makintay’s disinheritance. After his father had him sent away
to prison, he told Ketrian that Mak had left her for a life as a starfighter pilot. She felt betrayed by Mak, and fell deeply into her work at
the Arginall Refinery. Her work with the minerals of the planet led to the discovery of how to increase the heat-absorption properties of
ostrine ten-fold, which caught the attention of Nial Pedrin. She later saw Mak in a holovid depicting the results of his failed rebel uprising
in Arginall City, but didn’t get a chance to confront him until sometime later. Then, Mak brought along several members of his Alliance
team, in hopes of convincing her to join him and the Alliance. She refused, and was captured with him as part of an Imperial raid and
shipped off to a penal colony. When she learned that Pedrin had killed her good friend, Alikka Nolan, during an intense interrogation
session, Ketrian began to doubt her loyalties to the Empire. Following their “rescue” from the Imperials by the Ghawem pirates, Ket
rejoined Mak and became part of the Alliance, working out of Eyrie Base. (SWJ8)

an alien race native to the planet Maridun, the Amanin are a race of tall, flat-bodied creatures. Their long, thin trunks are punctuated by
thin, gangly limbs which have allowed them to become expert hunters in the jungle fringes they inhabit. Their unusal body shape makes
normal walking ungainly, but their ability to climb trees and roll along the ground makes them swift in their natural environment. Vital
organs within the Amani body are small, and are distributed throughout their bodies, making them difficult to kill. Important organs are
also duplicated, and their brains are really a network of distributed bundles of nerves. They are a tribal people with a primitive level of
technology. Most Amanin are skeptical and even fearful of high-technology items. (GG12)
Amanoa
this woman, who lived 4,000 years before the advent of the New Order, was the Queen of Onderon, and wife to King Ommin. For many
years, Amanoa was unaware that Ommin had been studying the ways of the Sith. When did find out, she tried to break the hold the
Dark Side of the Force had on him, but failed utterly. Instead, Ommin brought her into the Sith magicks and began training her. She had
some ability to control the Force, and Freedon Nadd's presence allowed her access to the Dark Side quite easily. She became known
as the "Dark Queen." She held the Onderanians away from the planet's other wild tribes until her daughter, Galia, fell in love with the
Beastmaster prince. She was so enraged that she called on Nadd and the Dark Side of the Force and tried to defeat the Beastmasters
herself, but Master Arca returned her to the Light Side. The removal of the Dark Side energy killed her, and she was buried with Ommin
and Freedon Nadd on the Dxun moon. (TOJ, DLS, TOJC)

Amidala
this native of the planet Naboo was just fourteen standard years of age when she was voted into office as the Queen of Naboo.
However, she was already a seasoned veteran of the planet’s political scene, having served for two years as the ruler of the capital city
of Theed. Note that issue 6 of the Star Wars Kids magazine claims Amidala was elected Queen at the age of twelve, not just city
leader. She was born to humble parents who live in a remote, mountain village, but quickly became enamored of the glamorous life of
the city after visiting with her grandmother, Winama. Although this worried her parents, they also saw that she was quite special, and
allowed her to continue her political training. After becoming Queen, she trained under Captain Panaka in the martial arts, and also
agreed to use deception when necessary to ensure her safety. To this end, she favored heavy theatrical facepaint and an incredibly
ornate wardrobe, but this was mainly for practical purposes. The facepaint and clothing helped mask her true appearance, which
closely resembled that of her handmaiden, Sabe. In times of crisis or danger, Sabe often took the place of the Queen, while Amidala
pretended to be a simple servant known as Padme Naberrie. Shortly after being elected Queen, she was thrust into the galactic
forefront during the rise to power of Senator Palpatine and the crisis with the Trade Federation. She showed why she had been elected
during the conflict, standing tall against the Neimoidians and traveling to Coruscant to petition her case to the Galactic Senate.
However, political maneuvering was outside her scope, and she often deferred to Palpatine’s judgement. This led her to fall into
Palpatine’s plan to discredit Chancellor Valorum, as she felt that the only way to save Naboo was to force Valorum out of office and
replace him with a stronger figure. However, her experiences on Tatooine with Shmi and Anakin Skywalker had reduced her faith in the
Old Republic anyway, and Valorum’s lack of backbone in condemning the Neimoidian invasion only served to support her agreement
with Palpatine’s plan to remove Valorum from office. During her stay on Coruscant, Amidala realized that Jar Jar Binks – and the
Gungans in general – were greatly misunderstood by the Naboo. With Binks’ help, she devised a plan to remove the yoke of
Neimoidian control. Once her plea had been heard, Amidala returned to Naboo and forged an alliance with the Gungan leader Boss
Nass, and together they were able to repel the droid armies of the Trade Federation and free Naboo from its blockade in the climactic
Battle of Naboo. Amidala was portrayed by Natalie Portman in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. (SW1, TPM, JQA, IG1,

Ammar
this Imperial Moff, in charge of Portmoak Sector, was a contemporary of Abran Balfour. (GG9)
Ammuud
this planet was originally colonized by settlers from Thokos. There were seven colony ships that arrived, and the descendants from
each ship formed the basis for Ammuud's seven major clans. A series of savage clan wars broke out, and lasted for nearly 10,000
years. About 100 years before the Galactic Civil War, the clans called a cease-fire, and developed a governmental system based on the
Ammuud Code. Years later, the planet was under Corporate Sector Authority jurisdiction, but subcontracted to the clans. Each clan
leader, or Mor, then ruled as part of the planet's government. This coalition is very shaky, as the clans tend to play against each other in
a perpetual power struggle. There is a unique Code that is used among the clans to ensure some level of fairness. The planet itself is
thickly forested, with large oceans and two immense polar ice caps. (HSR, CSA)
Ammuud Code

Amphibion
an amphibious assault vehicle used by the New Republic on Calamari, the Amphibion was designed and built by SedriMotors. Based
on the Incom XM-21, the Amphibion is a quiet surface floater. Its low profile and quiet repulsorlifts allow troops to quickly and safely
enter an aquatic battlezone. The Amphibion is lightly armored, and not equipped for heavy combat duty. This made them easy to
produce in large quantities. If the Amphibion was required in combat situations, it was usually supported by other craft. The Amphibion
measures 7.3 meters in length, and is armed with a single antipersonnal gun mounted in the rear. Hand-held weapons are stored in
lockers inside ship. The Amphibion can be mounted with an Atgar 1.4FD P-tower. (DE1, DESB, EGV)
Amphistaff
this reptile is native to the homeworld of the Yuuzhan Vong. A snake in its normal form, the amphistaff can harden all or part of its body
to the consistency of stone. This makes the creature a valuable form of spear to the Yuuzhan Vong warriors. It can also narrow its neck
and tail before hardening, to form a kind of razor. When relaxed, the Yuuzhan Vong warrior could use the amphistaff like a whip. The
amphistaff is also highly venomous, and can accurately spit its poison into the eyes of an opponent twenty meters away. The poison
blinds instantly, and causes a long, slow death if manages to seep into the target's pores. When hardened, the amphistaff was also
impervious to the blade of a lightsaber. Later, in the campaign against the New Republic, the Yuuzhan Vong developed a species of
amphistaff which could be implanted into a warrior's body for concealed transport. (VP, DTO, HT)
Ampliquen
a planet in the Chorios Systems. It was against Ampliquen that Seti Ashgad instigated a series of pirate attacks, in order to draw New

this Hutt was the daughter of Orko, a H'uun who was an enemy of Gorga the Hutt. Gorga wanted to marry Anachro, and placed a
bounty on Bar-Kooda, who was pirating Orko's ships. He hired Boba Fett to bring the pirate back in one piece, so that Bar-Kooda could
be served to Orko during an engagement dinner. This pleased Orko immensely, and he gladly gave Anachro’s hand in marriage to
Gorga. They were married on Tatooine, and honeymooned on the planet Skeebo. There, Anachro was kidnapped by the Skavers and
Kaptain Voor, who hoped to gain a huge ransom for her. Gorga once again called on Boba Fett, who encountered Ry-Kooda as well as
Voor, and managed to eliminate both of them. Anachro was returned to Gorga’s side, and was soon found to be pregnant. She hoped
that this would bring her father and her husband together, but events unfolded around her that left her father dead and herself under
attack by Ry-Kooda. Boba Fett intervened before the Koodan could reach her, saving her from certain death. She gave birth shortly
thereafter. (BF)

Andasala
a planet which was a haven for criminals and other underworld operatives. During the early years of the New Republic, the planet ws
under the control of Valis Lorn. Andasala was originally a mining settlement established by Gesenix Mining. Promising because of the
wealth of natural resources available, Andasala became a booming world by virtue of its proximity to Svivren. Its location also brought
into direct contact with the Galactic Civil War, as both the Empire and the Alliance fought battles for control of the space lanes around it.
These battles continued well after the Battle of Yavin, until Valis Lorn arrived. He nationalized the planet through the use of his criminal
henchmen, establishing a "safe" world for its natives. The average day on Andasala lasts 25 standard hours, and its year encompasses
370 local days. (GG11)
Andes, Murton
a member of the Empire's Intelligence corps. He was stationed for a while on Tatooine. He developed a series of contacts with Jabba
the Hutt, although he was forced to break these off when he was transferred to the Al'Nasrl sector. (ISB)
Ando
primary planet of the Ando system, it is the homeworld of the Aqualish race. The Ando system contains the planet Abregado. Ando was
the sight of one of Thrawn's feint attacks in preparation for his attack on Ukio; the attack was led by the Bellicose. The planet has very
few solid land masses, and the Aqualish have adapted by living in sailing ships or on the small islands. The islands themselves were
often nothing more that hummocks in a swampy ecosystem, and were shrouded with an acrid, steamy mist. There was at one time a
sister planet to Ando, but the Aqualish wars left it barren and blasted soon after they discovered space travel. (DFR, TLC, GG4, MA)
Ando Prime
this cold, frozen world was the site of a podracing course that challenged racers with a variety of icy, nearly frictionless surfaces. The
planet's primary inhabitants were the Bendu monks, who lived and worked in the Andobi Mountains. More modern settlements sprang
up to the south of the mountains, and the villagers built a huge water pipeline and pump system to bring mountain spring water to their
growing cities. The podraces that began here were originally staged to entertain the laborers who were building the pipelines, which
took nearly a decade to complete. (RAC)
Andoan Ale
green, alcoholic beverage. (TME)
Andoan Mineral-fish
native to the planet Ando, this large shellfish could reach sizes of up a meter in length. Their outer shells were formed from a variety of
valuable minerals and ores, making them a cheap source of raw materials. They have advanced bio-chemical processing abilities, as
evidenced by the rate at which they add to their shells. The average mineral-fish lives only five years, but in that time they grow quickly.
The Empire was interested in the fish for two reasons: the ores in the shell were used to form war materiel, and scientists wanted to
learn how they processed raw material. Unfortunately, no one has been able to duplicate the mineral-fish’s abilities. (COG)
Andobi Mountains
this mountain range was the home of the Bendu priests, and was located on the planet Ando Prime. Water from the springs found in the

mercenary who coul dbe hired to perform just about any job. Syn, who wears ornate battle armor and travels in a jet-black space yacht,
was once hired by a group of pirates who were trying to raid the mining colony on Adim. The miners had hired a group of mercenaries
to protect them, but Syn eliminated them all singlehandedly. (GG12, WBC)
Andra
this woman was the sole member of the POWER party, on the planet Telos, some twelve years before the Battle of Naboo. However,
she was no less determined than an entire politcal party to ensure that Telos wasn't turned into an industrial wasteland. Therefore,
when Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi revealed the Xanatos was using UniFy as a front for Offworld Mining, she agreed to help them
bring Xanatos to justice. She and her cohort, Denetrus, helped the Jedi expose Xanatos and his plans by showing video of the Sacred
Pools during an Katharsis game. Xanatos had been using the pools - which were located in a protected, global park - as dumping
grounds for the toxic wastes developed during the mining of malab and other ores. After Xanatos was defeated, Andra and Denetrus
began to fall in love. (DOR)
Andras Pell

treaty with the New Republic. At first he thought Pellaeon was joking about trying to surrender to the Republic. (SOP)
Andreya, Lesle
this woman was a native of the planet Neree. At one time, she was an intelligence agent with the Alliance. However, after the Battle of
Endor, she deserted her position and began selling New Republic computer files to the highest bidder. She was last seen on Nal Hutta,
but she had the uncanny ability to blend in with any crowd. Only her Neree accent tended to give her away. (WBC)
Andris
this white spice variety is found on the planet Sevarcos. It is much more abundant than the black, Carsunum variety. Andris is used as
a flavor enhancer and preservative, although it has been claimed that the spice can induce euphoric feelings. It was discovered that

the Empire had manufactured Bledsoe's Disease to make it easier for Imperial agents to locate Alliance bases. (CSWEA)
Anemcoro
this planet was a colony world established by the Ho'Din. About twenty years before the Battle of Hoth, the planet was caught in the
middle of a civil war between neighboring worlds, and several large cities were destroyed in an "accidental" barrage of Imperial fire. A
huge firestorm resulted, and much of the planet's terrascaped surface was destroyed. Very few Ho'Din escaped the raging fires that
swept across the planet. (ND)

Angeles, Pike
this Lordian man joined the Alliance after completing two tours of duty with the Imperial Navy, when he learned that slavery was almost
fully sanctioned by the Empire he served. This went against everything he believed, and so he defected. He was assigned to the Y-
Wing squadrons on Dantooine, where he was partnered with the astromech R2-S4. He also brought with him an impressive knowledge
of Imperial codes and schematics, and longed to become a field agent. After winning R2-D2 from Captain Raymus Antilles in a sabacc
match, Angeles traded the droid for a position as a deep-cover agent. Airen Cracken, a participant in the game, placed Pike back into
Imperial service as a starship engineer. His Lorrdian heritage allowed him to assume virtually an identity at will, which allowed him to re-
enter Imperial service without being recognized. He used his position to gain access to backwater Imperial bases, and simply stole
ships that had come in for service. His charismatic personality allowed him to talk his way out of explaining the theft, and provided the
Alliance with much-needed starships. His full Lorrdian name was Shen-and-Gretta Pikeual-Angeles of Lorrd. (CRO)
Angle Trap
this unique device was found to be effective at containing Force-sensitive individuals. The Five used them on Attahox to control Force
Demons. (CSWDW)
Angler
this creature, native to the fourth moon of Yavin, it a spider-like crustacean that long legs attached to a small body. It drapes itself over
the exposed roots of the Massassi trees, with the ends of its legs in the water of a river or stream. When a fish swims too close to the
angler, it thrusts its legs out at the fish, spearing it with the pointed ends. The legs then work in unison to grab the fish and draw it into
the angler's mouth. (ISU)
Angor Farn
this Bith worked for Sleeft Docking Bay Maintenance until he accidentally checked out the wrong freighter. The freighter he acquired
was full of top-of-the-line droid parts stolen from Notsub Shipping by Sleeft. He tried to flee from Tatooine while neogtiating with Sleeft
to ransom the parts, but he was not allowed to leave. He holed up in the Dim-U monastery until Coral Ohah was able to recover him.

Anguilla
this race of intelligent ocean-dwellers was native to the planet Alluuvia. The Anguilla had long, eel-like bodies which were well-muscled,
and they had long arms and powerful hands. At the time of their discovery, shortly after the Battle of Yavin, the Anguilla were a primitive
culture which had no notion of civilization as thought of by most humans. They were nomadic hunters, following the migrations of the
fish schools in order to maintain a steady food supply. The leaders of each Anguilla community were determined in tests of strength.

this Alderaanian woman contacted Drake Paulsen on Omman, and offered him 30,000 credits to transport her offworld immediately.
Shortly after the Battle of Hoth, she and her team of anthropologists were trying to return a Twi'leki artifact to Ryloth before a group of
Imperial agents could steal it from her. Padjia had studied at Alderaan University, and joined the Alliance after the destruction of her
homeworld. She was recruited into the Alliance by one of her teachers, Oll Maa'cabe. She worked with her father, Colonel Renz,
although she kept her mother's maiden name as was the Alderaanian tradition for an only daughter. It also allowed her to honor her
mother's Alderaanian heritage. The Imperial hoped to use the crystallite skulls to bribe the Twi'leki government into an alliance. The
Alliance to Restore the Republic caught wind of the Empire's plans, and hired Doctor Anjeri to recover the skulls in order to keep the
Twi'leks from joining the Empire. (SWJ12)

Ankarres Sapphire
this remarkable jewel was supposed to have special healing abilities. An individual who touched an injured limb with the stone soon
found the wound healed. The stone was owned by Dom Pricina, until she failed to keep a vigilant watch over it while travelling on the
Kuari Princess. The droid 4-LOM initially took it from her possession in order to protect it, but then realized that it could steal the stone
without being caught. The droid later fenced the stone on Darlyn Boda, beginning its foray into the criminal world. When 4-LOM
returned to Darlyn Boda with the survivors of the Bright Hope, he found that the stone had never been sold, so he reclaimed it and took
it to his partner, Zuckuss. The Gand was recovering from breathing oxygen, and 4-LOM reasoned the stone might help him. 4-LOM
also used the stone to help Samoc Farr. (TBH)
Ankura
this is one of the two major races of the Gungan species. Characterized by their hooded eyes, green skin, and small haillu, the Ankura

Annance
this Imperial Captain was known to be extremely patient. He served as the commander of the Empire Forever, taking Advisor Coh
Veshiv on several missions. Annance had only been with Veshiv for three months before his patience began to run out. Shortly
afterward, Veshiv was captured by the crew of the Far Orbit. Annance would have normally been suspicious of Captain Vedij's orders to
take over for him on Veshiv's fact-finding mission in the Ringali Shell, but had become so weary of Veshiv's presence that he
considered the request a stroke of luck and gladly turned Veshiv over. (FOP)
Annealing
this was the name of the process by which the energy-charged seeds of the boras trees of Zonama Sekot were shaped by mature
boras trees into new forms of boras. The creation of a Sekotan starship from seed-partners mimicked this process, as the forged seed-
partners became seed-disks, which were then molded to airframes and combined with technology to form starships. (RP)

JS, GG2)
Anobis
this planet is located near Ord Mantell. There were two main groups of native humans: those that lived and worked in the mountain
mines, and those that lived and worked in the lowland plains. The miners depended heavily on trade in order to survive, and valued
their relationship with the Empire. The farmers, however, were self-sufficient, and resented the controls imposed by Imperial law. At the
height of the Galactic Civil War, the farmers wanted to join the Alliance, but the miners feared the loss of their trade. An intense civil war
broke out, and lasted for nearly 25 years before Han Solo met with the leaders of both groups. Han was acting as the Grand Marshall of
rd
the 93 Blockade Runners Derby on Ord Mantell. (ROM)
Anointed People
this was the name used by a race of reptilian humanoids which had reached a feudal level of society by the era of the New Order. They
were native to the planet Abonshee, which they called Masterhome, and had a feudal society which split their people into two classes:
the Godlings, who were the rulers and priests of the planet; and the Unwashed, which were the serfs and laborers. All of the Anointed
People were ruled a supreme leader known as the Godking. Despite their fearsome appearance and disparate societies, there were
very few wars in their history. After Imperial Lord Dixton tried to take control of the Godking, shortly after the Battle of Yavin, the
Godking aligned the Anointed People with the Alliance. The Godlings assisted a group of Alliance agents in capturing Dixton and
ensuring the Anointed Peoples' freedom. (SWCP, MB, AE)
Anomid
a humanoid alien race native to the Yablari System, the Anomid are born without vocal cords. This requires that the immature Anomid
wear complex masks which synthesize the sounds necessary for communication with others. These masks are very large, covering all
but the Anomid's eyes and forehead. They dress in long, hooded robes made from pure dendrite. Most Anomids have pale, transulcent
skin and wide eyes, and their ears are large and leaf-like in shape. Anomids have six toes on each foot. Their technology is fairly
sophisticated, and the Anomid have become very wealthy selling it in the galaxy. A peaceful race, they supported the Old Republic for
15,000 years before the onset of the New Order. Their own political system was divided in its support during the Galactic Civil War, but
they sided with the Empire in an effort to meet their homeworlds' needs. (RM, GG12, RD)

mines. (PG2)
Anoth
planet on which Han Solo and Leia Organa-Solo "hide" their children during the early years of the New Republic. It is really three
fragments on an ancient planet which was destroyed eons ago, and is held together by gravity, orbiting a common center of mass. Two
fragments orbit in close proximity, and are virtually uninhabitable. The third fragment is separated from the other two, and is capable of
supporting life. Thus, many system cartographers consider Anoth to be the third planet in the Anoth System. The three planetary
fragments orbit a small, white dwarf sun. The Anoth fragment has a day which lasts fourteen standard hours, and orbits its sun every
286 local days. Winter took care of the children there, and worked with Admiral Ackbar and Luke Skywalker to prepare defenses. The
fortress was breached by Ambassador Furgan's troops, who used MT-ATs to break down the barriers and gain entrance. The base was
abandoned for some years after Furgan's attack was thwarted, to see whether knowledge of the planet became widespread. When it
didn't Han and Leia began to refurbish the base as a private, well-defended retreat. (JS, COTF, JASB, TNR)
Another Chance
this legendary armory ship was a massive transport ship used to carry all of Alderaan's weapons off-planet. A converted Alderaanian
War Frigate, it was programmed to continually jump through hyperspace until called home by Alderaan's council of elders. It was
accompanied during this time by three Alderaanian warships, which were slave-circuited together. The Another Chance was manned by
a collection of droid workers, programmed to maintain the ship and protect it against unauthorized entry. Many of the stories of ghost
ships near the Alderaan system report seeing this ship. The Another Chance was actually recovered by Alliance sympathizers shortly
before the Alliance's defeats at Derra IV and Hoth, when Orinn Tathis returned to the Graveyard of Alderaan in an effort to locate the
remote calling device. He hoped to turn the weapons carried within the ship over to the Alliance, in an effort to help them fight back
against the Empire. (GA, BTS, BW)

why Sprax chose to leave the Antar Band alone. (SSR)
Antar 4
the fourth of six moons orbiting Antar, Antar 4 has an unusual rotational axis that is nearly parallel to its orbital plane, which wreaks
havoc on the moon's seasons. It also affects the moon's day/night cycles, as both sides of Antar 4 sometimes exist in daylight when the
planet Antar is not eclipsed by its sun. During these eclipse phases, Antar 4 receives virtually no light, except what is reflected off other
moons. Antar 4 is the homeworld of the Gotal race, who have developed sensitive horns which allow them to exist on Antar 4's
ever-changing face. (GG4)

Antbbianplourr’s reign was characterized by the fact that he bartered away his planet’s pride and honor in order to maintain his seat
during the initial wave of Imperial conquests. (XWWP)
Ante-Endor Association
a group of fanatics who spread propaganda that states the Battle of Endor never took place, and that the Empire still holds sway in the
galaxy. The roots of the AEA were based on Mrlsst, spreading from the remnants of Imperial control there. Wedge Antilles and Rogue
Squadron were caught up in the AEA's propaganda, and tried to convince its followers of the truth of the Battle of Endor. However, the
AEA preached an elaborate tangle of fabrications about the events of the Galactic Civil War, the end result of which dictated an Imperial
victory over the Alliance. (XWPA)

this strange form of idea was created by the deity Cold Danda Sire. Anti-concepts were ideas which consumes other ideas. (CSWDW)
Anti-Corr 113
this corrosion preventative was used to protect equipment from heat and environmental damage during shipment. It was developed by
ColuChem scientists who wanted to transport equipment through the toxic environment of Clak’Dor VII, and soon found its way into
galaxy-wide use. It takes decades to break down or evaporate, and can only be removed with powerful chemical solvents. It has the
side effect of turning whatever it touches a dull shade of blue. (SWJ9)
Anti-Prophet
this is the Ugor term for anything evil in their world, in contrast to the good exemplified by High Prophet Botiv. The Ugors claim that the
Squibs were formed from pseudopods of the Anti-Prophet. (SH)

Antilles, Corellia
this woman was a xenoarchaeologist who spent much of her career searching out potentially dangerous artifacts, retrieving them so
that the New Republic could saefguard them. On one mission, Corellia uncovered what she believed to be an ancient Gree device in
the jungles of Asation. She spent much of her time in the spaceports of Satikan, hoping to find a crew to help her recover the device
from its hiding place. She was forced to hide it when a group of wild Gree attacked her after she took the device from their tribal city.
She barely survived the trip to Satikan, and most of her survey crew was killed in the flight. A group of Te Hasan Gree managed to
intercept her, and took the device – known as the Khoz’zhak – back to Te Hasa in exchange for credits and a lesser device. (SWJ8,
SWJ14)
Antilles, Jagged
Wedge's father, Jagged owned the Corellian Inter-System Marketing Station and fuel depot on Gus Treta with his wife, Zena. He and
his wife were killed when the Bonestar Pirates, trying to escape from Corellian authorities, purposely lifted off while the refueling lines
were still attached to their ship. The resulting explosion threatened to destroy Gus Treta, but Jagged and Zena sacrificed themselves to
limit the destruction to their depot. (XWPA)

Mara Jade were married. (U)
Antilles, Raymus
a starship Captain working for the Organa family, Antilles was in command of the Tantive IV. Along with Princess Leia, he was also a
supporter of the Alliance. Antilles was described as the owner of C-3PO and R2-D2 by C-3PO himself. This may have been part of the
programming given to him and R2-D2 by Antilles and Princess Leia, to hide that fact that R2-D2 contained the stolen plans to the first
Death Star. Antilles was killed by Darth Vader on board the Tantive IV when he refused to divulge the location of the stolen Death Star
plans. Vader physically strangled him. (In the novelization of Star Wars, Antilles' name was Colton.) Antilles was portrayed by David
Ackroyd for the Star Wars Radio Drama on National Public Radio.
(SW, SWRN, SWR, JPL)
Antilles, Syal
1) this woman is better known as Wynssa Starflare, one of the most popular holodrama stars of the New Order. She grew up with her
family - which included her younger brother Wedge - in the Corellian System, but was not enamored with the life of a starship
mechanic. She longed for more, and before her twentieth birthday, Syal left her family and moved to Coruscant to pursue an acting
career. Wedge was seven at the time, and he never got a chance to know her. She changed her name shortly after the death of her
parents, and went on to become famous. During a party on Coruscant, she met Soontir Fel, who had been stationed on the planet
shortly after the Battle of Yavin. They fell in love almost immediately, and Syal was forced to admit to Fel her true name and relationship
to Wedge Antillies. Fel told her that it didn't matter, and they were eventually married. When Fel was tested by Ysanne Isard and was
lost at the Battle of Brentaal, Syal fled Coruscant and hid from Imperial reprisal. Fel spent the rest of his career trying to find her. They
were reunited shortly before the re-emergence of Grand Admiral Thrawn, and together they gave birth to five children, including a baby
boy, whom they named Jagged. (XWM, HXW, DTR)
2) this young girl was the first daughter of Wedge Antilles and Iella Wessiri, and was named for Wedge’s sister. (U)
Antilles, Wedge
born on Corellia, Wedge spent much of his childhood working for his parents on the last planet in the Gus Treta system. His parents,
Jagged and Zena, owned a fueling station there, and Wedge became proficient at starship systems. He also gained a great deal of
piloting skill there, and was ready to go to the Academy when a pirate ship, the Buzzzer, under the command of Loka Hask, got
spooked at the fuel depot when a Corellian Security Force fleet arrived. Hask ordered them to lift off, but the crew forgot to unhook their
refeuling coupling before blasting away. The resulting fuel leak was ignited, and Wedge's parents were forced to eject the fueling
station in order to save the rest of the station. Note that Star Wars Screen Entertainment software indicates Wedge was away at school
when the accident happened, that the accident was caused by smugglers, and that the smuggler's ship was destroyed in the resulting
explosion. Both of Wedge's parents were killed in this effort, and Wedge - who was with Booster Terrik at the time - went after the
pirates in an old Z-95 Headhunter. Although he managed to destroy the Buzzzer, Wedge's lack of funding led him to start taking all
kinds of odd jobs, and was getting nowhere as a smuggler when he decided to join the Alliance. He quickly demonstrated his abilities
as a fighter pilot, and also ran a number of reconnaissance and escort missions before being tapped as one of the X-wing pilots in the
Battle of Yavin. Since then, Wedge's growing skills have earned him a number of distinctions, the greatest of which came when he was
named squadron leader of the famous Rogue Squadron. While with Rogue Squadron, Wedge assisted Lando Calrissian during the
Battle of Endor, and helped destroy the incomplete Death Star being built there. He remained as Rogue Leader through the
restructuring of Rogue Squadron, and his squadrons provided invaluable support in the battles against Ysanne Isard and Grand
Admiral Thrawn. It was during this time that Wedge also developed the idea of Wraith Squadron, which he successfully implemented
and modified into a crack infiltration unit. After turning down two promotions, Wedge was promoted to the rank of General about a year
before the defeat of Thrawn, and was offered the command of the Star Destroyer Lusankya. He also chose to remain with the Rogues,
but was assigned, along with Calrissian, to command the captured Star Destroyers Emancipator and Liberator when Emperor
Palpatine's clone emerged from Byss. He fought bravely at Coruscant and Calamari, although the Emancipator was destroyed on
Calamari. He later returned to Coruscant, where his primary role in the New Republic was changed from pilot and warrior to General
and clean-up supervisor following the near-destruction of the planet. This was a short-lived assignment, though, for his desire to pilot a
starship quickly outweighed the ease of being a supervisor. When that effort was launched, Wedge wanted to get back into piloting. He
became the escort for the ship which dropped the Eol Sha colonists off at Dantooine, and then was named Qwi Xux' bodyguard. During
this time, Wedge began to fall in love with Qwi, while also returning to Rogue Squadron and assisting the Republic in the assault on the
Maw Installation. Wedge was assigned to the Lusankya, which served as his base of operations, for the purposes of commanding a
special task force. However, after several years of war, Wedge began to realize that he had grown apart from Qwi. What he didn't
known was that she felt they had grown apart as well, so they both agreed to end the relationship and go their separate ways. Wedge
decided to take a vacation and figure out what to do with his life, when he was chosen by Airen Cracken to lead the delegation to
Adumar. Wedge's diplomatic skills were not the greatest, but his gut instincts proved more valuable in swaying the Adumari to join the
New Republic. During the mission, he also discovered that he and Iella were in love with each other, and he quickly proposed to her.
Iella accepted almost as quickly. Shortly after peace was negotiated between the New Republic and the Imperial Remnant, Wedge
retired from active duty, and he and Iella set to work starting their own family. Wedge was eventually succeeded by Gavin Darklighter,
although the former pilot provided assistance to Gavin during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. Wedge served as Rogue Alpha during the
struggle against the Vong, piloting a reconnaissance X-Wing to gather data. Shortly after the Battle of Garqi, Wedge discovered that he
was not only a father but an uncle as well, after meeting Jagged Fel for the first time. Wedge was portrayed in all three Star Wars films
by Dennis Lawson, who replaced Jack Klaff mid-way through production of Star Wars. Wedge was also portrayed by Don Scardino for
the The Empire Strikes Back Radio Drama on National Public Radio. (SW, SCRE, ESBR, HTTE, JS, DA, COTF, XWN, CCG4, WS,

to their own depot. This effort saved the rest of the station, but ultimately killed them. (XWPA)
Antilles Maneuver
named after Wedge Antilles, this starfighter attack maneuver was devised at the Battle of Yavin, in an effort to save Luke Skywalker. In
this maneuver, an attacking starship tries to kill an enemy who is in pursuit of a comrade. The attacker approaches the enemy while
hidden in front of the comrade. The comrade’s ship breaks off at the last moment, leaving the enemy in the sights of the attacker. A
quick burst of blaster fire takes the enemy by surprise. (CCG9)

Antone
this Bakuran technician was assigned to help Jacen, Jaina, and Anakin Solo activate the Drall repulsor during the Starbuster plot. He
had a reason to help, since his aunt lived on the planet Bovo Yagen, primary planet around the third star listed on the Starbuster
agenda. After the Sacorrian Triad was brought down, Antone remained aboard Centerpoint Station as a technician. It was Antone who
discovered that the Station’s repulsors would be inoperable without Anakin Solo’s help, since every system on board had imprinted
itself with his fingerprints, DNA, and brainwaves. (SC, JE)

this Anguilla was the leader of the community which agreed to help a team of Alliance agents drive Imperial forces off the planet
Alluuvia. However, when he learned that the Radell Mining Corporation wished to establish a settlement on Alluuvia, he became angry
with the Alliance team and threatened them. The Ithorian, Iych-thae, intervened and agreed to oversee all of Radell's operations, to
ensure that Alluuvia wasn't polluted as Dega was. Anyar reluctantly agreed to allow Radell on the planet, undertstanding that the planet
would be better off with Radell than with Imperial Mining, Limited. (OE)

Anzat
a race of humanoids that closely resemble humans, at least externally, the Anzati are more myth then reality to much of the galaxy's
inhabitants. Internally, their composition differs greatly. The primary difference is that the Anzati have proboscii hidden inside their
cheeks that can be extended out from their nostrils. These proboscii are used to consume the brain of the Anzati's victim. The Anzati
places his face nose-to-nose with its victim, and the proboscii extend into the victim's brain, where they consume the brain and all its life
energies. The Anzati refer to the brain and its energies as "soup." They are creatures of no real biological rhythm; they simply exist, and
when they require rest, they drop into a deep coma-like state. (TME, TJP, GOF5)
Anzati
this is the plural form used to name the Anzat race. (GOF4, TME)
AOI-C
this was the original designation of Massad Thrumble’s custom-built medical droid, which he later nicknamed Doc. (SEE)

Shad Furies 21-20 in overtime in a match in Imperial City, Ap was attacked and beaten to death by seven humans who claimed to be
Furies fans. In reality, the seven were Imperial supporters, working for a distant Moff, who killed Ap as an example to other Alliance
sympathizers . His death was nearly prevented by Ytavarg Aleema, but Aleema arrived too late to save Kormar. In anger, Aleema used
his shockball equipment to kill the seven attackers. (CRO)
AP-1-C
this Imperial attack droid was created by Arakyd, shortly after the Battle of Endor. These droids had a humanoid torso, but in place of a
head the AP-1-C had a second torso armed with a repeating blaster and an array of sensors. These droids were developed to
coordinate the activities of the AP-2 and AP-3 droids. (SWG)
AP-2
this humanoid attack droid was produced by Arakyd for the Imperial forces fighting the New Republic, shortly after the Battle of Endor.
Like the companion AP-3 droid, the AP-2 was designed to receive orders from an AP-1-C droid commanding a pool of soldiers. Highly
mobile, the AP-2 was armed with a light repeating blaster, a pair of heavy blasters,a pair of micro-grenade launchers, and a hand-held
blaster pistol. A broadband attenna was used to receive command signals from the AP-1-C droid. (SWG)
AP-3
this barrel-shaped Imperial attack droid was developed by Arakyd during the early years of the New Republic. Designed to act on the
orders of the AP-1-C commander, the AP-3 was armed with a blaster cannon, six rocket tubes, and a micro-torpedo launcher. A
broadband antenna allowed it to receive signals from the AP-1-C series. (SWG)
AP-300
this was the model number of Kuat Drive Yards' Asteroid Prospector. At 350 meters in length, the ship was designed to swallow whole
asteroids and partially refine them within its holds. The craft was crewed by 500 officers and 36 gunners, and could transport up to fifty
passengers and 80,000 metric tons of ore. Because the ores it refined were at least twenty-five percent pure, the AP-300 was armed
with eight laser cannons. Four tractor beam projectors assist in moving asteroids into position to bring them aboard. (PP)
AP/3
this was the model number of an Atgar Blaster Turret. (MBC)
APA-5
this was a series of general purpose mess-hall droids manufactured during the early years of the New Republic. Kir Kanos used one to
fly a Scimitar Assault Bomber in orbit around Yinchorr, after he fled the planet Phaeda. General Wessel fell for the trick, and brought the
bomber aboard the Emperor's Revenge. The bomber was rigged to explode upon opening, taking out the Star Destroyer just after
Carnor Jax escaped. (CE)

as a way to strike back against the New Republic. Chik was known for his skills with hand-to-hand combat, especially with knives. While
on Coruscant, it was also revealed that Chick had been having a somewhat platonic affair with the Moff's wife, Anlys. He was captured
by Mara during his attempt to steal her wedding dress. Anlys had given Chick the address of Jari'kyn's studio, and Chik dressed inhis
finest Imperial armor to attack the Twi'lek. He was unprepared for Mara's presence, and he caused him several serious injuries before
remanding him to the custody of the police. (U)

Aquala
a faction of the Aqualish race on Ando, the Aquala live on floating raft cities and sailing ships. These aqualish are called the finned
aqualish, since they retain their fins instead of fingers. They are considered to be of a lower social caste than the Quara Aqualish, even
though they make up about ninety percent of the Aqualish population. They blamed the Quara for the steady decline in the harvests of
fish from the seas, and ignited a racial war that lasted several generations. The war was ended when an exploration vessel of unknown
origins landed on Ando, and the two sides stopped fighting each other and destroyed their visitors. The two groups then reverse-
engineered the ship and discovered how to fly it and then build their own ships, although the process was painstakingly slow for the
non-technical Aqualish. The uneasy truce was soon broken, and the two groups took their battle to Ando's sister planet, utterly
destroying it. (GG4)
Aqualis Base
this was a food processing station which floated on the seas of the planet Baralou. Its official name was the Aqualis Baralou Algae
Processing Plant #T-18, and it was publicly owned by the Aqualis Food Conglomerate. This was all a front, however, as Aqualis Base
actually supplied foodstuffs to the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. (PG1)
Aqualish
a walrus-faced race of bipeds from the planet Ando. There are two castes of Aqualish society. The higher caste has hands which are
articulated webs with opposable thumbs, and is known as the Quara. The lower caste has clawed hands, rather than the webbed ones,
and is known as the Aquala. The distinction between levels is very great; webbed Aqualish hold governmental and commercial
positions, while the clawed Aqualish are usually left to become bounty hunters and smugglers. They are a belligerent yet
technically-advanced race. The Aquala live in vast sailing ships, while the Quara live on the planet's small islands. They have a long
history of civil war, and have destroyed Ando's sister planet because of it. The war was initiated by the Aquala, who blamed the Quara
for the declining harvests of fish. The war lasted until an exploration ship landed on Ando. The two groups banded together and killed
the ship's crew. Eventually, the non-technical Aqualish discovered how to fly the ship, and even learned how to build their own. The old
grudges soon re-surfaced, though, and the two factions took their battle to Ando's siste planet. When the Empire arrived, the war-loving
Aqualish tried to overthrow them. The sheer might of the Empire battered the Aqualish into submission, but it instilled a deep hatred in
the Aqualish culture. (SW, GG4, TLC, TME)

this ancient Melodie lives beneath the surface of the waters on Yavin 8. At one time, he could read the ancient Massassi writings that
litter the moons of Yavin, but the ability has faded over the years from lack of use. He learned the Massassi words as part of the training
he received from his mother, Esla. Esla was her generation's keeper of legends, as was Aragon. When Anakin Solo and Tahiri ask him
to help them decipher the riddle of the Golden Globe, Aragon cannot help them with the ancient writings, but he does give them the
entire message contained within them. Anakin and Tahiri then translated the message into it component letters, allowing them to read
more of the ancient writings. (LW)
Arah
this asteroid belt was the site of an Imperial mining operation geared toward the procurment of derillium and oridium for the V38
development project. (RA2)
Arakkus
an Imperial scientist, Arakkus led an Imperial weapons development lab until he was contaminated by experimental radiation released
during an Alliance attack on the lab. The radiation was released when an Alliance attack on the installation destroyed much of the lab.
Arakkus retired from Imperial service, feeling sorry for himself and angry at the galaxy. He hid near a dwarf star, but could not reconcile
his suffering. Thus, he began sending out false distress signals, luring ships to him. He lured them so close to the dwarf star that they
were unable to escape its gravity. thus, the ships' crews became doomed, just as Arakkus was. Known as the Graveyard of Lost Ships,
this collection of doomed ships eventually orbitted the star in five interconnected rings. Arakkus refuses to try and live out a full life.
When his distress call lured the Millennium Falcon to the Graveyard, Arakkus is beseeched by Han Solo and Luke Skywalker to leave
the place. He refuses, claiming that he has rigged the Graveyard with negatron to explode if someone tries to remove him from it. Han
realized that such an explosion would free the Falcon, but Arakkus fled into the depths of the station, rather than go back to the outside
world. Han and Luke detonated the negatron, destroying the Graveyard and killing Arakkus. (CSW)
Arakyd Industries
a major manufacturer of droids, heavy wepaons, and starships, Arakyd made a name for themselves during the New Order by securing
several high-profile deals with the Empire. The Viper Probe Droid was one of their greatest achievements, as it marked one of the most
successful attempts to use artificial intelligence in a military application. After the Battle of Endor, Arakyd continued to remain loyal to
the Imperial remnants, and produced the XR-85 Tank Droid for use when the Empire battled the New Republic for control of Coruscant.

employs an Aradian pulse-lifter propulsion system for atmospheric travel. Nil Spaar took the ship to Coruscant when he went there to
draw the New Republic's attention away from the Koornacht Cluster. (BTS)
Aramadia-class Thrustship
this Yevethan warship design is a sphere-shaped craft equipped with Aradian pulse-lifters for propulsion. They are also called T-types.
There were two basic models of thrustship: an unarmed troop transport and a fully-armed warship. The warship was graded at medium-
cruiser-class weaponry, armed with eight main laser cannon batteries spaced around the ship to defend any angle of attack. Up to four
batteries could be linked together, to concentrate fire on a single target. They were also armed with several concussion missile
launchers. What made the Aramadia-class so strong in battle was the fact that their spherical shape made it easy to shield. The
smooth, rounded surface allowed maximum shielding capability with minimal power input, unlike a boxy starship which required multiple
genrators. The T-type thrustship measured 240 meters in diameter, and required a crew of 6,810 Yevethans along with 49 gunners. It
could transport up to 1,600 troops and 10,000 metric tons of cargo. Each was armed with 8 turbolaser batteries, 3 proton torpedo
launchers, 4 gravity bomb launchers, 4 missile launcher batteries, and 6 ion cannons. (SOL, TT, CTD)

a scaleless, bipedal race of reptiles with an anvil-shaped head and marble-like eyes. Between their eyes is a small bulbous knob that is
used as a heat sensor and supplement to their eyesight. Their skin resembles fibrous wood, and ranges in color from dark mahogany
through gray to ebony. They are native to the planet Cona, and require ammonia supplements whenever they are off-planet. Socially,
Arcona arrange themselves into groups called Grand Nests. They are farmers by nature, tilling Cona's rich tropical environment. The
absence of salt in their environment has caused them to become addicted to the substance on occasion. Such addicted Arcona are
noticeable by their glowing yellow eyes, a result of a chemical interaction between the salt their optic nerves. This interaction also
causes hallucinatory visions to play across the Arcona's eyes. However, increased levels of salt also break down the pancreatic ability
to convert ammonia into a water-conserving enzyme, and is thus deadly to the Arcona. (GG4, SCRE, CCG)

governor, Myrial, declared the Kanz Sector independent, and began to forcibly conquer other planets in the sector. Lorrd was one of
these planets, whose cries for help fell on deaf ears, for the Old Republic was too busy to help. The Kanz Disorders lasted nearly 300
years before a group of Jedi Knights could be dispatched to end them. (CSA)
Argazdan
this people subjugated the Lorrdians during the Kanz Disorders. (AE)
Argdran, Mikos
this short, pudgy man was something of an infochant, playing the Elrood-Derilyn Trade Route and exchanging useful information with
the highest bidders. He was once employed by Lud Chud, but doublecrossed the Rakaan crimelord by alerting Tanda Pryl and the
Thunderflare of an attack by Chud's forces. The pirates were decimated at the hands of a fully-prepared Imperial Star Destroyer, and
Mikos was captured. Lud Chud then discovered that Argdran had stolen a number of computer datafiles, and had a team of bounty
hunters throw Mikos out of a passing cargo ship. Luckily for Mikos, a team of Alliance agents was passing by the area, on a search for
Shondra Del. Lud Chud, upon learning of Argdran's survival, employed a team of Loag assassins to hunt down Mikos, and the Alliance
team was forced to travel to Merisee to throw off the pursuit. The Loag were able to track Argdran by the weak signal produced by the
stolen datafiles. However, Argdran and the Alliance team were rescued from the assassins by the Thunderflare, believing they were

sensitivity to the Force. She was taken in by the B'omarr monk Grimpen, who drew her into his plans by making her believe she was
one of the most enlightened beings of her generation. However, she was simply drawn into an elaborate scheme in which Jabba the
Hutt had been using B'omarr techniques to transfer the brains of the galaxy's worst criminals into other bodies. Tash ended up with the
brain of Karkas after the original host escaped, and promptly killed Commander Fuzzel. Hoole managed to get her brain back into her

the planet Necropolis to purchase a new starship. After befriending Kairn, Zak was drawn into Doctor Evazan's plans to create armies
of reanimated zombies. He injected Zak with the diluted juice of cryptberries, then injected him with reanimation serum. Zak was then
buried, and Evazan hoped that the boneworms would soon begin burrowing into his body to locate bone marrow. It was Zak who
discovered that the B'omarr monk Grimpen was working with Jabba the Hutt to transfer criminal brains into new bodies, and rescued his
sister from a similar fate while in the crimelord's palace on Tatooine. (GOF1, GOF7, GOF11)

the child in the face of opposition from many other Hutts. When Jiliac realized that Aruk was going to cut off the supply of spice and
slaves from Ylesia, he contacted Teroenza. The two devised a scheme in which poisoned nala-tree frogs - a favorite delicacy of Aruk’s -
were fed to the old Hutt. Aruk consumed the frogs with abandon until his system could no longer take the abuse. Aruk died form the

reference to the way in which they sharpened their foreclaws and painted themselves black to hide in the shadows. The Vratix became
concerned about their human counterparts during the outbreak of the Krytos virus on Coruscant, seeing that the Imperial ties to the
bacta cartels were becoming stronger. It was at this time that the Zaltin faction began supplying the Ashern with weapons and credits to
maintain their attacks on Xucphra-aligned facilities. When they needed addiitonal help in planning their overthrow of Xucphra, they
recalled Bror Jace from Rogue Squadron by falsely claiming his father was ill. They then arranged for Jace to "die" in an accident,
making it possible for him to assit them without ties to any political body. They sent Qlaern Hirf to petition Wedge Antilles to champion
the acceptance of the Vratix in the New Republic, in return for help in creating their own supply of bacta. Wedge agreed, but was
unable to make a move when Ysanne Isard took control of Thyferra. (XWN, SWAJ, KT, BW)

Assault Cruiser
this form of warship was developed by the Bothans during the early years of the New Republic. Smaller in size that a Victory-class Star
Destroyer, the Assault Cruiser boasted twenty percent more firepower and fifty percent more shielding and armor plating. It was leaner
and less angular that the Victory-class ship, and was designed to take a beating while giving one out. The design and construction of
these warships was heavily protested by many factions, since the Assault Cruiser was developed after the Imperial Remnant had
negotiated a peace with the New Republic and the state of war between the two had been nullified. The ships proved to be excellent for
carrying starfighters into battle, with a pair of huge hangars located amidships. The launch apertures from the ship allowed fighters to
head up or down, depending on the conditions of battle, and made recovering fighters at the end of an engagement quick and easy.
(DTO)
Assault Frigate
basically a modified 700-meter-long Dreadnaught-class starship, the assault frigate was stripped of its outer shell to increase engine
capacity and fuel efficiency. Two dorsal solar fins were also added, increasing maneuverability and energy production. There were no

this species of space-going arachnids is capable of exisiting in hard vacuum. Their exoskeletons contain the necessary proteins to
protect them from decompression when travelling among the stars. Their homeworld’s name and location are well-kept secrets.
However, individuals can be found floating in the gaps between planets, most notably the middle-man Kud’ar Mub’at. Each assembler
is comprised of a primary intelligence node and the web it controls. Each node can create subnodes from its own neural fibers, and can
use them for a number of facilities. A subnode which outlives its usefulness can be re-ingested by the assembler, and the physical and
genetic material can be reused. In this way, assemblers tends to be quite possessive, and will reuse anything they find to augment their
webs. Each intelligent primary node is also quite jealous of its own intelligence, and will strive to keeps its subnodes form becoming too
intelligent. Successive generations of assemblers often grow from these subnodes, whoever, and the strongest subnode will often
consume its creator, continuing the line. Any assembler which dies, but is not consumed, can be brought back to life by the application
of power and data mixed in the correct proportion. This allowed Boba Fett to re-animate Kud’ar Mub’at in order to determine Neelah’s
identity. (MA, HM)
Assessor
the Imperial customs frigate which once intercepted Roark Garnet as he tried to flee Imperial space. The Assessor was also the ship
that intercepted Han Solo and Chewbacca during their most fateful Kessel Run. Han was forced to dump the load of spice he was

Asteroid 7785
this piece of rock was once part of the planet Alderaan. After Grand Moff Tarkin destroyed the planet, the resulting rubble formed a
wide asteroid field known as the Graveyard. Shortly after recovering from the injuries he suffered during the Battle of Yavin, Darth
Vader circulated a rumor that the Royal Palace of Alderaan had been discovered intact on Asteroid 7785. He hoped to lure Leia Organa
and any other of the survivors of the battle to Alderaan, where Captain Janus Bonn waited for them. Vader then augmented the rumors
by adding a story about the mining survey team discovering a survivor in the asteroid who claimed to be Bail Organa. Vader went so far
as to build a replica of the Palace inside the asteroid, using motion sensors and other mechanisms to trap his victims inside.
Unfortunately for Vader, a group of Alliance agents intercepted the message from Hanos Darr and Zaz Hamiroz before it reach Leia
Organa, and arrived at the asteroid before she did. The trap was sprung, but without the victims Vader intended. In reality, a tiny
fragment of the Royal Palace's underground stucture was discovered in the asteroid. (GA)

Astin, Fable
this tall, slender woman was a Captain in the Alliance military, and was the leader of the Harrier infiltration team. She was also a young
Jedi in training. Fable was one of youngest beings ever appointed the rank of Captain, and at the age of 19 was also one of the
youngest infiltration operatives. Her mother had been a Jedi Knight, and instructed Fable’s father in its uses. When Fable’s father was
killed in a struggle with one of the Emperor’s Inquisitors, Fable and her mother were forced to flee and hide from Palpatine’s reach.
Despite her military training and sensitivity to the Force, Fable was also easily distracted and moody. After her team suffered a loss
during a mission to Nysza III, Fable was faced with the Dark Side of the Force in a confrontation with the Dark Jedi Vialco, who was
guarding the Imperial communications bunker she was ordered to destroy. The bunker was taken out, but Vialco soundly defeated
Fable in a short battle of wills. Later, in a chance encounter on the planet Iscera, Fable met Jaalib Brandl, and followed him back to
Trulalis. There, she was introduced to Adalric Brandl, Jaalib’s father, and was given instruction in the deeper use of the Force to help
her defeat Vialco. Despite the needs of Harrier Team, Fable remained on Trulalis for many months, striving too hard and making more
mistakes than she thought she was capable of making. During her training, Fable fell in love with Jaalib, a relationship that Adalric
forbade. He sent Jaalib back to Iscera and called Vialco to Trulalis, provoking a battle that renewed their aggressions. She was
unaware of Adalric’s true intensions until she had defeated Vialco and refused to kill him outright. Adalric prodded her, then sent an
image into her mind – that of Vialco recovering his lightsaber and lunging toward her. She spun her own lightsaber around and
decapitated Vialco, only to snap out of the vision and realize that Vialco had never recovered the weapon. Adalric then imprisoned her,
hoping to return her to the planet Byss as a gift to the Emperor. (SWJ8)

Astrolabe
a New Republic Astrogator-class probe, it was rerouted from its normal survey mission to monitor the Koornacht Cluster just before the
start of the Yevethan Great Purge. Etahn A'baht had asked his old friend, Kiles L'toth, to divert a survey ship to the Cluster before the
Fifth Battle Group arrived there. However, the Astrolabe was discovered at Doornik-1142 by Vol Noorr and the Purity, which fired on the
small survey ship and disabled it. The three crewmen were killed, and the entire incident was used by Nil Spaar as part of his plan to
take over the New Republic. He publicly blamed Leia Organa-Solo for their deaths, since - he claimed - they were acting on her orders
to scout out an invasion of the Cluster. (BTS, SOL)

prior to the New Republic's assault on it. She was a member of the Alien Combine, noticeable by her black pelt, which is punctuated by
white splotches on her chest, head, and hands. She tried to come onto Gavin Darklighter, who rejected her. She labelled him a bigot,
and brought him to the Combine for punishment. Asyr soon discovered that Gavin was simply scared, and was as understanding of
alien species as any non-human. She was a graduate of the Bothan Military Academy, graduating a year behind Peshk Vri'syk. This
training earned her the respect of the Rogues and the New Republic, and she was given a place in the squadron following the liberation
of Coruscant. She and Gavin became romantically involved, but were discreet about it. She was watched by Borsk Fey'lya, who had
hoped that Asyr would remain loyal to the Bothan political ideals and could provide potentially damaging information about the Rogues.
She refused his demands, and remained loyal to the Squadron. When Asyr and Gavin made their relationship public and decided to
adopt children, Fey'lya stepped in to block their efforts. He felt that Asyr wasn't behaving in a Bothan-enough fashion, and told her in no
uncertain terms that any further dalliance with Gavin would have serious repercussions. She once again refused to accept Fey'lya's
demands, but also realized that she and Gavin would be unable to have the life they wanted. She went on a rampage, flying beyond
herself during the assaults on Liinade III and Corvis Minor Five, until her ship collided with an enemy fighter over Corvis Minor Five. Her
loss cam as a shock to Gavin and the Rogues, who mourned her deeply. However, Asyr herself managed to survive, having been
rescued by the Errant Venture. She swore Booster Terrik, Mirax Terrik, and Iella Wessiri to secrecy, leaving the New Republic in the
hope of bringing about changes to Bothan society by working undercover. (WG, KT, IR)

fire-linked heavy laser cannons and two fire-linked medium blasters on its head-like cockpit, the AT-AT was designed to inspire fear in
the enemies of the Empire. General Veers was a proponent of the AT-AT, and purposely overlooked the fact that the AT-AT could be
toppled by a cable wrapped around its legs. Although this weakness was used effectively by the Alliance on Hoth, the Empire continued
to use the AT-AT to install fear. (ESB, DFRSB, TME)

this creature was native to the planet Ichtor 8, where it was discovered by Imperial scouts who recognized its commercial value.
Averaging just over a meter in length, attack stohls are warm-blooded preadators whose bodies are covered with a thick pelt of downy-
soft fur. Their mouths were studded with sharp fangs, which injected a poison into the bloodstream of their victims. They were
considered a pretty nuisance by the Imperials, and their curiosity first endeared them to hunters. However, it was soon realized that
these slow-moving creatures could be trained as pets. For an extremely high price, a person could own a beautiful stole-like wrapping
for their neck, which wouuld attack any being which got too close for personal comfort. The ownership of attack stohls was popularized
by Shantee Ree, who owned one and started a campaign to ensure the survival of the species. (COG)

Authority moved in an annexed the Trianii colony worlds, including Fibuli. Keeheen resisted with every ounce of his being, and he and
Pakka were taken prisoner and sent to prison to ensure thier silence. Atuarre, bereft of her family, began to concentrate on becoming
the best Ranger she could possibly be, and quickly was elevated to Ranger status. She then set out to find her husband and son.
Atuarre managed to rescue her son during a prisoner transfer in Authority space, but could not find her mate. Pakka's traumatized state
hardened her resolve to defy the Authority and find Keeheen. She joined Rekkon's team in order to discover his whereabouts, working
as an apprentice agronomist. She later helped Han Solo break the secret of Stars' End by impersonating Madam Atuarre, the leader of
a band of entertainers sent to Stars' End by as a replacement for another act. There, she was able to rescue Keeheen. They returned
to Trianii space, where Atuarre became a physical trainer for the Ranger cadets. Atuarre is distinguishable by her striped pelt, yellow

technology. They are often called Altorian Birds. Much of the Avogwi society is dominated by the teachings of Toro-toral, which detail
the elaborate ritual duels among Avogwi. Many Avogwi found off their homeworld are employed as bounty hunters. Emperor Palpatine
subjugated a number of Avogwi during the New Order, using drugs and the Dark Side of the Force to keep the Avogwi hallucinating
about their deepest fears. They were then used as vicious guards, while stormtroopers were used for more important tasks. The Avogwi

and Tinian. Daye and Tinian's bodyguard, the Wookiee Wrrl, managed to get Tinian to safety. After making sure she escaped from
Druckenwell with the plans to the energy field's technology, Daye destroyed the I'att complex. Unfortunately, he was caught in the
resulting desctruction and was nearly killed before he could rendezous with Tinian. He was rescued by the local underground, and
eventually recovered. However, he had many body parts replaced with cybernetic implants. Rather than endanger Tinian further, Daye
remained with the underground and eventually joined the Alliance. He worked for the cell led by Una Poot, and was responsible for
aiding the Sunesi in their battles against the Empire. When Daye met Agapos the Ninth, the Sunesi used his ability with the Force to

this man and his brother, Tomaas Azzameen, cofounded Twin Suns Transport Service. His loyalty to the family ran deep, especially
after he was caught on Hoth, assisting the Alliance with a supply delivery, when the Empire attacked. However, he grew to oppose his
family's affiliation with the Alliance, and soon turned into a traitor. He tried to expose the family and turn them over to the Empire in a
trap laid at Kessel Station, but Ace and the Alliance were able to thwart his plans. (XWA)
Azzameen, Emon
the middle of the three sons of Tomaas Azzameen, Emon was a skilled pilot with a hot streak. He was always around when a fight

9D7's cranial cavity, effectively continuing his reign over various underworld elements while remaining a mystery long after his death. In
this way, he manipulated Jace Forno and Olag Greck until B-9D7 was ultimately destroyed by Forno on Boonda the Hutt's moon.
(DRO)
B-Wing
designed by Admiral Ackbar and the Verpine colonies of Slayn and Korpil as part of the Shantipole Project, the B-Wing (the B stands
for blade) looks like like a flying cross, with the control pod at the top, retractable wings at the sides, and laser guns at the top and
bottom. The canopy is also gyroscopically levelled by a unique stabilization mechanism that allows the entire ship to rotate around the
canopy. This is difficult to maintain, and can leave the pilot disoriented if it locks up. The Quadex Kyromaster stardrive is located at the
center of the cross. The whole ship flies sideways. The entire ship is 16.9 meters in length, at its longest dimension. Originally designed
without a hyperdrive, it was later modified to include a hyperdrive and limited navcomp capabilities. It is limited to two hyperspace jumps
before the navcomp requires recalibration. It can make 950 kilometers per hour in an atmosphere, and has been rated at 90 MGLT in
open space. The B-Wing is equipped with active and passive sensors, a single laser cannon, two proton torpedo launchers, three
fire-linked medium ion cannons, and two auto-blasters. The single laser cannon can be fired at low power in continuous mode, doing no
damage but acting as a near-perfect targetting mechanism. While this makes the B-wing very effective, it also allows the enemy to
effectively target the B-wing in return.
B-Wing/E
this modification to the original Slayn & Korpil B-Wing design - known as the B-Wing Expanded - was first proposed by Admiral Ackbar
and the Verpine after the Battle of Yavin. The B-Wing Expanded had an elongated cockpit that allowed a a gunner to assist the pilot on
missions. This allowed the pilot to concentrate on piloting, and resulted in the B-Wing accounting for an increased number of kills in
battle. It was faster and tougher than the original B-Wing, but was somewhat less maneuverable. There were two models of B-Wing/E:
the first was simply a military ship, while the second generation (known as the B-Wing/E2) was designed as a personal military shuttle.
Ackbar used one of these E2-designs as his own shuttle, which he was forced to crash on the planet Vortex after it had been tampered
with by Terpfen. (EGV)
B-Wing/E2
this was a new version of the two-man B-Wing, produced for the New Republic shortly before the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. (HT)

B'omarr Order
a sect of monks who inhabited the wastes of Tatooine, the B'omarr built a huge citadel in the deep desert in order to isolate themselves
and concentrate on the physical denial of all senses that is central to their belief system. This citadel was later invaded by the bandit
Alkhara, but the monks simply let him reside there, tolerating his presence only because they knew he would someday falter, and they
could retake the citadel. The palace was later inhabited by the minions of Jabba the Hutt, who used the citadel as his base of
operations. As with the bandit Alkhara, the B'omarr tolerated Jabba's presense. When Jabba was killed, the B'omarr again retook the
palace. Their existence is more whispers and mysticism than concrete fact. One thing that is known about the B'omarr is that, when
they reach a certain level of spiritual awareness, they have their brains surgically removed from their bodies and placed in a nutrient
suspension. The reason behind this ritual stems from their belief that they no longer need their physical bodies to continue their
devotion. (DS, TJP)
B’oth
this was the Morishi term for a Bothan. (SOP)
B'rknaa
an unusual race of creatures that are composed of ash and stone, the B'rknaa were discovered on the planetoid Indobok. They have a
group mind, and are animated by the force emitted from Indobok's energy crystals. The B'rknaa can, when the need arises, combine
themselves into a single entity. The planetoid Indobok is, itself, a huge adult B'rknaa. They mature into the energy crystals, which have
the property of amplifying the power output of many generators. Jace Forno tried to take the crystals off the moon, but was foiled by
R2-D2 and C-3PO. (DRO)
B'rrsk
this large rock or ball was used in the Corellian sport of phrenbi. The term b'rrsk came from the Old Corellian word for "head," and
phrenbi could be translated as "to decapitate," both terms indicating the violent and physical nature of the sport. (BSS)
B’shingh
this game was created by Crat Dakerno, who modeled it after the complex wars and battles fought between the Farang and Waroot
races of the planet Ab’Bshingh. A famliarity with the races’ battles, cultures and customs is essential to any player, and this makes it
unusual outside military or intellectual circles. The basic object of the game is to capture your opponent’s base and maim or kill his
soldiers. Each player can make one of two moves each round: a physical movement of soldiers, or a change in stance. Every fifth turn
is radnomized to interject battle realism, and knowledge of the tribal rituals helps players anticipate the randomizer’s effect. (SWJ8)

Babalabbet Swoont
this Sullustan was a highly respected cybernetic engineer in his home system. A promising career took a bad turn when Swoont ate
some contaminated food and suffered slight damage to his brain. His work began to result in deviant behavior in droids, and a mining
accident caused by one his droids resulted in his incarceration in a criminal asylum. The noted droid abolitionist Xalto Sneerzick
recognized Swoont’s ability with droids, and arranged to free Swoont from prison. Despite his insanity, Swoont became fiercely loyal to
Sneerzick, and became an integral part of the Droid Abolitionist Movement. When Sneerzick decided to start raiding Cosmohaul
Shipping, Swoont devotely followed him. They posed as a transport crew, and were given the task of transporting 100 R5 units to
Sullust on the Argent Lady. Xalto’s programming of the R5 droids caused them to rebel against even the abolitionists, and Sneerzick’s
entire team was shot and killed by the rebellious droids. Swoont perished along with them. (SWJ9)

this Bith merchant was an associate of Ort Hoogra-D'En, and was wanted by the Empire for supplying the Ho'Din with plant material
used to manufacture his spore bombs. He was killed when he booked passage to Celanon aboard the Chalcedony on Pallaxides, when
the crew fell victims to the spores used by Hoogra-D'En in his bombs. One of the bombs was accidentally set off by a bumbling Rodian,
killing the pilot of the Chalcedony and others aboard. The pilot managed to get the ship to Celanon, but expired before he could land it.
The ship crashed, killing those aboard who were not already dead from the spores. Babel was listed among the dead. (ND)

Backstab
a Corellian CR90 corvette captained by Jacob Nive, the Backstab was the only Eyttyrmin Batiiv ship to survive the attack of the
Bombard and the Crusader. It resurfaced several years in Elrood Sector, where Nive was approached by Shondra Del with an offer to
help the Alliance with Operation Elrood. After the Battle of Endor, the Backstab served as part of the Invid pirate fleet. (GG9, IJ, OE)
Bacrana
this planet was the site of a strong Alliance cell, which erupted following the Battle of Yavin. The Imperial Moff in charge, a man named
Ramier, swiftly quelled the insurrection and place the capital city of Amma under martial law. (SWJ8)
Bacta
a rejuvenatory fluid that circulates healing bacteria around a wound to speed recovery. The fluid contains living organisms that help
speed a patient's recovery by latching onto a wound and aiding in the regeneration process. It was first created by the Vratix, on
Thyferra, by combining the chemical kavan and alazhi. The small human population on Thyferra was placed in charge of two
corporations, Zaltin and Xucphra, and their small human management teams controlled huge populations of Vratix laborers. When
Palpatine became Emperor, he decreed that the two corporations would be the sole providers of bacta for the galaxy, giving them a
monopoly on its production but indebting them both to the Empire. Because of the monopoly and the prices they could charge, the
corporations created an export-quality bacta and a Thyferran version. The Thyferran version was much more potent than its export
version, which had lesser healing properties to drive up the demand. During the early years of the New Republic, Ysanne Isard tried to
cripple the Republic by restricting the availability of bacta in two ways: first, she let loose the Krytos virus on Coruscant; second, she
took control of the planet Thyferra. The Republic began taking great strides to preserve its supply of bacta, including reclaiming any
unused bacta from patients who were immersed in a bacta tank. This practice continued for another 15 to 20 years until bacta
production could be fully re-established under New Republic auspices. There was a rumor of a band of renegade Twi'lek pirates who
would immerse their captives in bacta during interrogation sessions. They would then run electricity through the bacta, torturing their
victims to the point of death, and then remove the electricity. They would allow the bacta to heal the victim, then start the electricity
again. (ESB, SWAJ, XWN, SOP, BW)
Bacta Bypass
another name for the Shapani Bypass. (PGT)
Bacta Cartel
this is the name first used to describe the monopoly hel dby the Xucphra and Zaltin corporations on Thyferra, during the height of the
New Order. When Ysanne Isard took control of Thyferra and placed the Xucphra faction in charge, the Bacta Cartel became a one-
corporation operation with Imperial backing. (BW)
Bacta Patch
this special bandage has a small amount of bacta impregnated into its gauzy material. When applied to a flesh wound, such as a
blaster graze, it helps heal the wound quickly. (IF)
Bacta Purge
a medical procedure in which a person's entire body is flooded with bacta internally. While a bacta tank allows external access to the
bacta agents, a bacta purge givens them direct access to lungs and other vital organs. It is a last-resort treatment, since it can do more
harm than good if improperly administered. (TB)
Bacta Run
another name for the Shapani Bypass. (PGT)
Bacta Tank
a cylindrical tank into which a person can be submerged for extensive exposure to the healing properties of bacta. (ESB)
Bacta War
this was the name given to the events leading up to, and including, the Battle of Thyferra. Historians trace the start of the Bacta War to
the point at which Rogue Squadron resigned its commission from the New Republic, following the liberation of Coruscant from Ysanne
Isard. The Rogues then began to raid bacta shipments and production facilities, stealing the rejuvenating fluid for use on Coruscant and
other credit-poor worlds which required it. Isard retailiated by destroying worlds that accepted the bacta, then murdering the Vratix
workers who created it. As the Rogues struck from their base on a space station in orbit around Yag'Dhul, Isard took more losses. The
stakes were raised when Isard learned that the Rogues passed through the Alderaan system to through off pursuit, so she leased the
Aggregator in hopes of catching them. This tactic resulted in the loss of the Corrupter, and the Aggregator was badly damaged,
because both sides had been tipped off by Melina Carniss, acting as a double agent under Talon Kaarde. The Rogues took the next
step, persuading Captain Sair Yonka to defect and bring the Avarice into the New Republic's fleet. Isard retaliated, and sent the
Lusankya and the Virulence to destroy the Rogues' base at Yag'Dhul. Once again, the Rogues had enough warning to prepare a
defense, and Booster Terrik's planning paid off. False weapons placements led the Lusankya to believe she was under attack from an
immense force, and she fled when the Virulence interposed itself between the station and the Super-class Star Destroyer. The
Virulence was captured by Terrik, renamed the Freedom, and turned over to Yonka to command at the Battle of Thyferra. That battle
marked the end of the Bacta War. (BW)
Badeleg, Cho
this man was one of the human members of the ExGal-4 outpost on Belkadan, when the Yuuzhan Vong began their invasion. The
ExGal-4 team saw the Yuuzhan Vong's advance warship land on Helska, but they believed it to be a simple asteroid. Danni Quee led
an expedition to Helska to see what had happened, and Badeleg was part of the team. Their Spacecaster shuttle was quickly
intercepted by Yuuzhan Vong coralskippers and disabled. Badeleg was killed on the shuttle during the assault, and never made it to
Helska. (VP)

Badure, Alexsandr
an old acquaintence of Han Solo's, Badure was a veteran of the Old Republic's military, having served in the Twi'lek Spice Conflict, the
Corellian Territories Engagements, and the Outer RIm Wars. After retirement, Badure went to work as a mechanic at the Academy
when Han Solo was a cadet. Since then, he has worked on and off with Han and Chewie, and even saved them during the blown
Kessel run that got them into trouble with Jabba the Hutt. Chewie carried a life-debt to Badure from that point on, which was repaid on
the snowy slopes of Dellalt. He is reunited with Han on Rudrig, where he was trying to get off the planet and search for the Queen of
Ranroon. He asks Han for transport, but Han initially refuses. After a number of close calls, he tells Han about his knowledge of the
Queen, and Han agrees to help him find the ship. (HSL, CSA)

Baem, Rodin
this man was a native of the planet Hoylin. He was an informant and computer slicer working for the Empire at the height of the New
Order, and had actually earned the confidence of Darth Vader himself after providing the location of several Alliance bases. After the
fall of Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader at Endor, Baem was able to break into several New Republic computer systems and steal
information. He was believed to be working for either Moff Lankin and/or Admiral Drommel. (WBC)

a planet which was the site of an ongoing skirmish between Imperial forces and the Alliance. Graf Yonna, acting as Parsol d'Ahndole,
killed an Imperial general on this planet, during an Alliance effort to capture him alive. (CRO, SWJ10)
Baffle
this BFL-series labor droid greeted Han Solo and Droma, after they landed on Ruan in search of Droma's family. Han believed that the
droid was Bollux, but Baffle claimed no knowledge of the Corporate Sector or Doc Vandangante. Programmed for serving as a driver,
Baffle could operate virtually any repulsor-equipped vehicle. In reality, Baffle had been working with black-market programming to
overthrown the Salliche Ag Corporation, which had been scrapping droids in favor of organic laborers in an effort to develop products
which were better suited to the Yuuzhan Vong ecology. With the help of Han and Droma, Baffle was able to override the control signals
which were keeping the droids immobile. The droids rose up against their Salliche Ag oppressors and managed to unseat them. Baffle
later helped Han and Droma escape Ruan by hiding them in an automated scout collector, which the droid piloted to the spaceport. It
was later revealed that the droids on Ruan had a full mythology based around "the long-awaited one, only flesh and blood who would
be able to help them." C-3PO discerned that Han Solo had become this being. (JE, BP)
Baffop
a temperate planet. (DFRSB)
Bafforr Trees
semi-intelligent trees native to Ithor, and worshipped by the Ithorians. Like a hive mind, the more trees there are, the more intelligent
they become. When seven or more trees grow together, the Bafforr achieve a sentience. The bark of the Bafforr is smooth and
glasslike, and its blue coloration is radiant and luminous. The bark coloration of saplings is deeper blue than the older trees. During the
Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Corran Horn and Jacen Solo discovered that the pollen of the baffor tree was deadly to the
vondunu crab armor worn by the Yuuzhan Vong warriors. They were able to defeat the Vong in a single battle before the effects were
learned by the Vong commanders. In retaliation for this usage of bafforr pollen, Deign Lian ordered the destruction of Ithor. All life on
the planet, including every bafforr tree, was killed in the attack. The New Republic, however, had taken steps to ensure the survival of
the bafforr, and took cuttings and young plants to several worlds, such as Borleais, in an effort to save the tree from extinction. (DA,
TME, DTR)
Baftu
this Phindian male was the leader of the Syndicat, which maintained control of the planet Phindar some twelve years before the Battle
of Naboo. He secretly made a deal with Prince Beju of Gala, offering to provide bacta to the Prince so that he could pretend to save his
planet from a false bacta shortage and gain the votes necessary to become the leader of Gala. Baftu, in return for the bacta and other
funding, would then get a foothold on the planet Gala, and would be able to take control of the world for the Syndicat, with Beju as his
figurehead leader. However, Baftu's plans were thwarted by several schemes, including Obi-Wan Kenobi's impersonation of Prince
Beju and Qui-Gon Jinn's efforts to return the Syndicat's stolen treasury to the Phindians. He worried about Terra's concern over his
dealings with Beju,and when they discovered the empty treasury, Baftu accused Terra of stealing it herself. She was killed by the
Syndicat's assassin droids. Baftu himself was later captured by the Phindian resistance, led by Guerra Derida, and tried to his crimes.

Bakura Incident
this became the historical term used to describe the events which occurred on the planet Bakura, prior to the Battle of Endor and
culminating with the Battle of Bakura. Many New Republic historians, including Voren Na’al, felt that public knowledge of the Bakura
Incident would undermine the efforts of the fledgling Republic to lead the galaxy. Na’al was worried that the existence of a relatively
unknown species, which had the ability to nearly defeat a Jedi Knight and entech humans, would cause a widespread panic in the
galaxy. (TBSB)
Bakura-class Destroyer
this warship was developed by the Bakurans in the years after their liberation from the Ssi-ruuvi invasion force. At 850 meters in length,
they were formidable ships. They required 8,250 crewmen and 275 gunners, and could transport up to 2,000 troops and 36,000 metric
tons of cargo. The Bakura-class destroyer was armed with 60 turbolaser batteries, 60 ion cannons, and 10 tractor beam projectors.
They were also equipped with a hyperwave inertial momentum sustainer (HIMS) system. The power plant of this design was based on
the Imperial-II class Star Destroyer, but the exterior was much more fluid in shape than the angular Imperial warship. (CTD)

Balancesheet
one of the most able subnodes generated by the assembler Kud’ar Mub’at, Balancesheet was in charge of monitoring and tracking the
assembler’s vast accumulation of credits. As it matured, Balancesheet became more and more aware of its creator’s schemes, and
also grew to understand its own existence. It kept much of its intelligence hidden, but showed enough to gain Mub’at’s trust. During
negotiations with two parties, Mub’at would sometime allow Balancesheet to pretend to be Mub’at himself. Balancesheet would crawl
into one of the carapaces Mub’at had shed, and act as if it were Mub’at itself. This worked particularly well, since Balancesheet could
mimic Kud’ar Mubat’s voice and speech patterns with ease. While remaining outwardly loyal to Mub’at, Balancesheet secretly
developed an intelligence on par with its creator. After the destruction of the Bounty Hunters Guild, Balancesheet discovered how to
disconnect itself from Mub’at’s web without dying, and without alerting its creator. This allowed Balancesheet to begin its own rise to
power, which started with an alliance with Prince Xizor. The Falleen saw great opportunity if he could eliminate Mub’at and have a level
of control over Balancesheet, although the subnode believed it controlled its own destiny. In a daring move, Balancesheet allowed
Xizor’s forces to infiltrate Kud’ar Mub’at’s web. After announcing its independence, Balancesheet ordered the destruction of the old web
while it set about killing its creator. Xizor himself them provided a bulk transport ship for Balancesheet to use as a base of operations,
and would have destroyed Fett if Balancesheet hadn not explained the hunter’s continued usefulness. Balancesheet then stiffed Boba
Fett of fifty percent of the bounty for Voss’on’t, as “paymeny” for his life. Years later, Balancesheet learned of the connections between
its creator, Prince Xizor, and Kuat of Kuat, and actually offered to help Boba Fett and Neelah put the pieces together. (MA, SLS, HM)

this man was the oldest member of the ExGal-4 team on Belkadan, at the time of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. He was fifty-three, and a
veteran of the Alliance. He was sent out with a group of ExGal-4 members to scout out a huge storm heading for the outpost, but they
were unable to return because of the incredible ecological damage done by Carr's dweebit beetles. Realizing that they would all never
make it back, Bendodi turned his oxygen pack over to Tee-ubo Doole and fled to die. When Luther De'Ono tried to follow him, he shot
Luther before turning the blaster on himself. (VP)
Balluzikik
this Barabel was one of the bounty hunters who accompanied Crutag to Trinta, in an effort to capture a group of Alliance agents.

Balmorra
an Imperial world responsible for the manufacture of many of the Empire's most destructive weapons, including the AT-ST and many of
the Emperor's war droids. It was attacked by the group of Dark Jedi who tried to re-establish the Empire after the reborn Empire's
death, but the Balmorrans repelled the Empire using the weapons they had built. The planet then became somewhat loyal to the New
Republic, initiating trade with the government. When Sedriss rose to power, he forced the Balmorrans into an uneasy arms alliance
following a battle between the various war machines produced on the planet. According to Rebellion, Balmorra is located in Sesswenna
Sector. (DE1, DE2, REB)
Baloo
this vines grows among the waza trees on the planet Dar'Or. Several thousand years before the advent of the New Order, the Ri'Dar
race strung nets of baloo vines between waza trees to develop small towns within the trees. The nets collected leaves and needles
falling from the waza trees, over time collecting into thick mats of decomposing matter. The layers of humus have been used by the
Ri'Dar to plant gardens in their aerial towns. (GG4)

Bama Vook
this Talz worked as a test pilot for Trinkatta Starships, in the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. Boll Trinkatta assumed that Bama
had been killed when Bartokk assassins working for Groodo the Hutt stole the droid-equipped starfighters that Trinkatta's corporation
was building. In reality, Bama Vook had slaved the starfighters together and "stolen" them himself, in order to ensure that the Trade
Federation didn't take possession of them. In order to better communicate, Bama Vook wore a voice translation unit on a thick collar
around his neck. After taking the droid starships, Bama Vook disguised himself with an eyepatch, in hopes of escaping notice long
enough to find the Jedi Knights who had come to Esseles. Qui-Gon Jinn soon realized that it was Bama Vook who had alerted Adi
Gallia to the presence of the Trade Federation on Esseles, and the building of the droid starfighters. When he stole the starfighters,
Bama Vook also obtained a prototype hyperdrive developed by the Neimoidians, presumably for use the starfighters. (E1A2)

Bandara
known as the "sandbar dweller" in the Devaronian language, this beetle-like creature inhabited the rivers of Devaron. They were drift-
feeders, gathering in huge swarms and resting on sandbars while feeding on the detritus that floats by. Seeing a swarm of bandaras on
the river was considered good luck by Devaronian river pilots, since it warned them of shallow waters. During the mating season, male
bandaras emit a coarse "singing" to attract potential mates, a drone which was intolerable by female Devaronians. They tried to wipe
out the bandaras, but were unable to completely exterminate them. Male Devaronians, however, could tolerate the song of the
bandaras, and were rumored to have employed mercenaries to help save the species. (COG)
Bandfill

Bandigo
a species of vicious omnivore native to the area around Temptation Canyon on Sriluur. Bandigos resembled large, dog-like creatures
with clawed limbs and wrinkled skin. They lived in the sand, and often ambushed their prey by hiding under a thin layer of sand until the
prey got close enough to capture. These four-legged creatures let out long, sinister howls at night, and many historians believe that the
ancient Weequay thought these howls were produced by the water nymphs which lived deep within Temptation Canyon. (SSR)
Bandits of Ggy-ynt
this pirate gang operated during the early years of the New Order. (AIR)
Bandomeer
this planet was at one time and agricultural world of rolling plains, until it was discovered that many valuable ores were hidden in its
crust. Then, mining operations such as Offworld Mining took control, and reduced it to strip mines and industrial wastes. The planet was
the homeworld of the Meerian race, who struggled to come to terms with the prosperity that cost them their natural beauty. Located in
the Outer Rim Territories, Bandomeer is known for its high concentration of ionite, as well as the many predators that lurk in its

quell the population there. A ruggedly-handsome man with a muscular physique, Bandor worked his was up the ladder through
bootlicking and treachery. He aspired to be Emperor Palpatine’s rght-hand man, and it irked him that he couldn’t control the Force. He
served faithfully, and gladly assumed control of Questal. There were several factions, all of which were fighting over claims of the
mineral Ardanium. The Emperor wanted to control the mining of ardanium, in an effort to bolster the construction of Super-class Star
Destroyers, and Bandor was given control of the planet. He ruled with an iron fist, and installed several of the major criminals in
positions of power. At the same time, Bandor was experimenting with the potential use of hurlothrumbic generators as weapons to use
against the Alliance. The generator induced fear when activated, and this was translated by the locals has Bandor’s use of the Dark
Side. Bandor did nothing to dispute this, as it added to his power. He was apprehended by Alliance forces on the planet Questal before
he could perfect the weapon. (GCQ)
2) this was the only major city found on the planet Bandomeer, and was thus the capital of the world. It was here that Offworld Mining
Company as well as Arcona Mineral Harvest Corporation had their bases of operation while mining ionite from the planet’s crust. (DR)

struggle against their elders, Bant blamed Qui-Gon Jinn for Obi-Wan's forsaking of the Jedi oath. Qui-Gon and Tahl later asked for
Bant's help in searching the lake inside the Jedi Temple for a number of items and artifacts stolen by an unknown thief. Bant agreed to
help. (RF, HP, UP)
Bantha
1) huge, elephant-like beasts with curving tusks, the Bantha is found on a great number of worlds with vastly different climates. The
Bantha is as much at home being used as transport by the Sandpeople on Tatooine as it is in grassy plains and frozen tundra. The
Bantha has been domesticated on most of these worlds, and is used for pulling heavy loads, transportation, and even as war beasts.
The meat and hide of the Bantha are are much sought-after. While the origins of the Bantha are unknown, every world on which is
exists claims to be its homeworld. Most banthas bred in captivity are trained as beasts of burden, and most of those are bred for desert
environments. (SW, SWSB, DK)

established itself by gaining a wealthy and influential clientele. Owned by Yin Vocta, the Bantha Traxx contained a restaurant, bar,
dance floor, and gift shop, all of which featured a desert motif located within traditional Liann architecture. The entrance to the
establishment was well-marked, with a glowing neon bantha above the doorway. The desert motif was a nod to one of Vocta’s favorite
places, Tatooine, and lent itself well to the bantha theme of the restaurant. (WSV)
Bantha-blood Fizz
an alcoholic drink made from clarified bantha blood. (TJP)
Bantha-456
this code was created by Anakin Solo, and was used to purchase the nanny droid TDL-3.5 from an online catalog. He had hoped to

Bar-Kooda
Bar-Kooda was a Koodan pirate that preyed upon Orko the H'uun. Gorga the Hutt offered Boba Fett the chance to hunt down and kill
Bar-Kooda as part of a plot to win the hand of Orko's daughter, Anachro. Bar-Kooda had a muscular humanoid body, but his head was
a huge, smooth bulb with protruding eyes and a wide, sharp-toothed mouth. He was known to eat his enemies. Bar-Kooda's left arm
was refitted with a cybernetic prosthesis. Boba Fett used the services of Wim Magwit to infiltrate Bar-Kooda's pirate ship, the Bloodstar,
and apprehended the pirate with the help of Magwit's mystical hoop, a short-range matter transmitter. Boba Fett captured Bar-Kooda
and returned the body to Gorga, who served the pirate's body up as a dinner for Orko. Bar-Kooda’s older brother, Ry-Kooda, attempted
to exact revenge on the two Hutts, but Boba Fett intervened and killed him, too. (BF)
Bara
this wraith was one of the unique organisms that inhabit the world of Jellyfish Cove. She, like all of her race, is mobile and can prowl for
prey in an ethereal form. However, she could not exist in ethereal form in the presence of sunlight, which caused them to solidify into
statue-like images of themselves. Bara nearly overcame the problem when she first encountered Garve. She tried to attack him during
a thick fog, but shafts of sunlight kept making her solid. Garve escaped, but only until Bara discovered that the Imperial uniforms left on
Jellyfish Cove by her other victims could wrap her in sunlight-blocking material from head to foot. She dressed as an Imperial officer
and gained admittance to Garve's base. When it became dark, she revealed her true form and again nearly killed Garve, but he was
once again saved by sunlight which streamed through the windows. (TMEC)
Barab
the red dwarf star that is the primary sun to Barab I. (GG4)
Barab I
homeworld of the Barabels, it is very near to its primary star, Barab. Barab I orbits Barab at less than 125 million kilometers. Thus, its
surface is constantly being bombarded by all sorts of radiation. This, coupled with the intense heat from the star, causes the planet's
water to quickly evaporate, creating a deadly, humid surface environment. The Barabels have adapted by living in the caves the riddle
the planet. The average day on Barab I lasts about 60 standard hours. It is interesting that all life on Barab I is cold-blooded. (GG4,
DFR, DFRSB)
Barabel
this bipedal race of reptiloids is covered in black scales much like fingernails. Known for their hunting and tracking abilities, Barabels
have heavy claws and sharp, needle-like teeth. They are a communal race, with separate groups dominated by a pack leader. Their
aggression is well-known, but they are also extremely loyal to their mates and parents. They are especially fond of fighting with their
nearby neighbors, the Verpine, and often captured Verpine and gave their body parts to the Kubaz. Being a moral race by nature, they
have a deep respect for the Jedi Knights. (DFR, DA, DFRSB, GG4)

Barada
1) this Klatooinan was the leader of Jabba the Hutt's repulsorpool on the planet Tatooine, just prior to the crimelord's death. He had
been badly scarred and disfigured on his homeworld before being sold to Jabba. The Star Wars Customizable Card Game indicates
that Barada was won by Jabba in a sabacc match. It was Barada who discovered the body of Ak-Buz in the palace scrap heap. He also
assisted in watching over Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Chewbacca when Jabba brought the to the Pit of Carkoon. Unfortunately for
Barada, he was one of the first of Jabba's men to fall into the Sarlacc pit when Luke's plan for escape went into action. (ROTJ, TJP,
EGC, CCG7)
2) another name for the Klatooinan race, used because so many Klatooinan males have been named after Barada M'Beg. (TOJ, GG12)
Barada M'Beg
this famous Klatooinan is perhaps the most revered scholar and leader in Klatooinan history. It was M'Beg who represented the
Klatooinans in their ancient negotiations with the Hutts, prior to the war with Xim the Despot more than 25,000 years before the
rise of the New Order. M'Beg is so well-revered that many Klatooinans name their male sons after him. This has led some other races
to refer to the Klatooinans as Baradas. (GG12)
Baradas II
a planet. (GG10)
Baradium
a powerful but unstable synthetic element, baradium is used in thermal detonators. When ignited, the baradium generates a particle
field around the exploding particles which are being emitted from the detonator. Most thermal detonators can generate a five-meter
sphere; this means that the baradium is capable of incinerating everything inside a five-meter diameter sphere centered on its source.
Everything outside the sphere is undamaged, as the sphere will eventually collapse when the baradium is spent. (ISB)
Baraduk
this Barabel was captured for use as an Imperial slave, but escaped from the compound on Herios IV. Before he left, Baraduk stole a
cache of weapons from the Imperial armory, an act which earned him the wrath of Herios' Governor. However, Baraduk evaded capture
until the governor offered him amnesty to simply leave the planet - an offer prompted by the loss of fifteen Imperial soldiers who were
killed chasing Baraduk. The Barabel agreed, and left Herios IV with all the weapons he could carry. He was hunted by Galasett for
many years, until he defeated the Kerestian in single combat. The two maintained a blood feud over the years. (GG10)
Baragwin
a race of hunch-backed, bipedal saurians, the Baragwin have spread throughout the galaxy. They have large heads which are as wide
as their shoudlers, and thick, muscular necks. They have an incredible sense of smell, and can even determine their quarry's emotional
state from the various pheromones exuded. Their homeworld has been lost over the millennia, and communities of Baragwin have
evolved distinct emotional and cultural differences. Being widely scattered, they simply adopted the various technologies found
throughout the galaxy, and have become knowledgeable in their uses. They have developed weapons and tools that are useable in
their three-fingered hands. (GG12)
Barak, Koth

firing on Yevethan vessels to preserve the lives of prisoners. The plan worked, and the Yevethans were able to break the blockade.
(SOL)
Baralou
1) this is the primary planet in the Baralou System. It is a warm world covered with oceans dotted with jungle islands and rocky
outcroppings. It is the homeworld of the Krikthasi and Multopos races. Mostly ignored by the Empire, the Alliance kept a presence on
Baralou to maintain a trade agreement which allowed them to obtain some of the planet's abundant algae for food. Baralou was also
known for the abundance of gemstones found in its waters, inlcuding sasho gems, kuggerags, and jasse hearts. It is the first planet in
the system, and has a day which lasts 22 standard hours. Its year lasts 295 local days. (PG1)
2) this yellow star is the primary star in the Baralou System. (PG1)
Baran
this man served as the chief Intelligence officer at the Alliance’s Eyrie Base. He held the rank of Commander. He was not well-
respected among the starfighter pilots assigned to the base, who often referred to him as “Barren-Brain” behind his back. (SWJ8)
Baranar, Haaken
this huge man was an independent scout and free trader during the early years of Palpatine's New Order. About 10 years before the
Battle of Yavin, Baranar was mauled by a snow demon during a stop-over on the planet Toola. He was taken to the Great Hoary
Mastmot Trading Station, and while he recovered the owner - a Wookiee named Spetbecca - was captured by bounty hunters. Haaken
was unconscious at the time, and felt that he owed the Wookiee a debt for not helping out. Thus, Haaken remained on Toola to manage
the Trading Station in the hopes that Spetbecca would return. (SWJ10)
Barani, Neil
this stocky, middle-aged man was the co-owner and chief engineer of the Yen-2 mining colony. He was known as a string leader, with
fair principles and a guiding vision. When he discovered that the Verde Asteroid Field was rich in deposits of doonium, he decided to
strike a deal with the Empire and gain his company a huge profit. Barani negotiated a deal with Major Stipling, then also provided
Stipling with information about Sprax's connections to Jatayus Outbound, Xizor Transport Systems, and Black Sun. However, Limna
Yith had been employed by Sprax to eliminate Barani's little rebellion, and managed to obtain a cop of the information, which became
known as the Barani List. Limna Yith then destroyed the Yen-2 outpost. Barani hid in the abandoned station, hoping to avoid the wrath
of Black Sun and/or the Empire. Barani later revealed that he had been forced by the vigo Green to set up Sprax for a fall at the hands
of the Empire. Green had promised Barani a huge payment as long as he supplied the Barani List to the Empire. After failing to sell the
list and then being rediscovered on Yen-2, Barani fled to the surface of the asteroid and allowed himself to die in the airless
environment. (SSR)
Barani List
this was the codename of the datafile maintained by Sprax and Millicent, detailing the involvement of Sprax's dealings with Neil Barani
and the Yen-2 mining outpost. It also contained the names of the mercenary teams sent out by Xizor and Sprax to recover Limna Yith.
Neil Barani had be provided with the names by the Black Sun vigo Green, who hoped that Barani would sell it to the Empire and bring
down Sprax's operation along the Sisar Run. After changing hands several times, the list was recovered by Sprax's mercenaries on
Yen-2. Contained in the list was a great deal of false information created by Green and meant to destroy Barani, vigo Sprax, and Ujin
Voli. There was also a great deal of misinformation meant to make anyone who read the document believe it was false. (SSR)
Barancar Port
this starport was known for its disgusting sewers and general state of disrepair. (SWJ8)
Baranda
this eel-like crreature was native to the planet Procopia. It was hunted for sport by the nobles of the Tapani Sector. (PGT)
Barbed Flyer
this Ithorian avian was know for its long, spiked tail. (OS)
Barclo
this man was a Lieutenant in the Darkknell Defense Agency, and served under Colonel Nyroska. He didn't agree with Nyroska's plans
to profit from recovering the plans to the first Death Star from Moranda Savich, but when Ysanne Isard began messing with the
computer systems of the Defense Agency, he began to work with Nyroska's plans. (TFNR)
Barcola
this isolated moon is a barren, desolate rock incapable of supporting life. However, it served as an Alliance research and development
site for new hyperdrive technology during the Galactic Civil War, under the direction of Charls Ginsbrack. The new hyperdrive
generated strange, hyperdimensional whirlpools that randomly took organic and inorganic items with it, including several of Ginsbrack's
scientists. Ginsbrack himself was sucked out of existence, and the project was abandoned. (GMS)
Barderia
this boxy, Corellian-built transport ship was based on the planet Halmad, and ran a regular three-way route through the system. Around
100 meters in length, it had an exemplary record for avoiding pirates, until it was targetted by Wraith Squadron. After getting it's
navigator drunk and learning of its flight plans, the Wraiths - acting as the pirate group known as the Hawk-bats - intercepted and
boarded the ship not once but twice, in a seemingly adroit pari of ambushes. Its owner and Captain, a man named Rhanken, was at a
loss to explain his sudden run of bad luck. (IF)
Bardo
a short, stocky human assigned by Olag Greck to guard the shipment of droids which contained C-3PO, R2-D2, and IG-88. (DRO)
Bardrin, Ja
this large man was the leader of the Bardrin Group, shortly after the Battle of Endor. He had his own daughter, Sansia, kidnapped in
order to ensure his power. He then commandeered the crew of the Wild Karrde and ordered Mara Jade to "rescue" her from slavery at
the hands of Chay Praysh. In reality, he merely wanted Sansia's ship, the Winning Gamble, recovered in order to maintain control of its
highly-modified systems. Also, he had programmed the ship's sensors to monitor Praysh's alace defenses, and planned to use the
information to storm the Drach'nam's palace on his own time. He then planned to sell the Winning Gamble to Praysh in return for some
highly-secret weapons prototypes the Drach'nam's pirates had stolen from the Uoti Corporate. He also ensured that the Mrahash of
Kvabja would deny ever sending a floater globe to Praysh, despite the fact that he sent one with Mara as a gift to Praysh. All these
plans, he felt, would ensure that he could obtain the Uoti prototypes. However, as soon as Karrde discovered that his crew had been
taken, he immediately rounded up his forces and stormed Bardrin's own palace. The Bardrin Group's guards were no match for
Karrde's forces, and quickly surrendered the palace. After Mara and Sansia were freed, Karrde took the sensor data that Bardrin had
taken on Praysh's palace and sent it to Luke Skywalker, in the hope that the New Republic would use it to storm the fortress and rescue
the enslaved women. Sansia remained with her father, ensuring Karrde that she would punish him in her own way.(TFNR)
Bardrin, Sansia
this young woman was the daughter of Ja Bardrin. Bardrin had her kidnapped in order to remove her from a position of power within the
Bardrin Group. She had been flying in the Winning Gamble, and her father desparately wanted the ship returned because of its highly-
enhanced systems. Sansia was then sold into slavery to Chay Praysh. She was glad to discover that Mara Jade had flown to Torpris to
rescue her, but when she learned that her father had hired Mara, she became dismayed that Mara only wanted the ship. When Mara's
plans began to come together, Sansia assisted any way she could. Once they made it to the Winning Gamble, Sansia used its
weapons to eliminate a group of Drach'nam guards and enable Mara to escape with her. After returning to her father's fortress, Sansia
learned the true intentions behind her capture. She was so enraged that she gave ownership of the Winning Gamble to Mara Jade, and
provided the sensor data it collected on Torpris to Talon Karrde. She then arranged to punish her father for his duplicity. (TFNR)

Barquin D'an
this Bith was the older brother of the famous Figrin D'an, and was a Kloo horn player for the Max Rebo Band. He was always bitterly
jealous of his younger brother, because Figrin's music became extremely popular while Barquin's own career wallowed in mediocrity.
His musica compositions were often considered excellent, but his singing and playing were regarded as average. Barquin was known
as a minor player, even though he performed as an opening act for Red Shift Limit, Starburst, and Annadale Fayde over his career. He
travelled to Tatooine in the hope of playing with Figrin, only to find that they were unavailable. Instead, Barquin signed on to help the
Max Rebo Band play at Jabbe the Hutt's palace. After Jabba had Oola killed for resisting his desires, Barquin fled the palace as fast as
he could. (RJSE, MTSE)

Barri
this species of unusual creature was found in asteroid belts across the galaxy. Believed to be somewhat intelligent, barri were able to
survive in the hard vacuum of interstellar space. Many xenobiologists agreed that barri were intelligent enough to grasp the
complexities of astrogation, since the migrations of barri were observed to be directed, rather than haphazard. It was believed that barri
originated on a planet in Wild Space, and took to the stars to find more food. They subsist by licking the asteroids on which they ride,
using acidic saliva and other excretions to break down the rock into digestible material. These four-meter-long creatures resemble a
thick slug with four large, taloned feet at one end and their heads at the other. Many deep-space pilots have discovered that thye could
form a bond with a particular barri, during which time the barri attaches itself to the ship for a ride. In return, the barri subconciously
communicates with the ship’s navigator and provides assistance in astrogation. This relationship was particularly noticeable among
Gotal and Ugor pilots. (COG)
Barricade, The
this pirate tactic was one of the oldest known methods for stopping a ship in space. The pirate fleet would use tractor beams to move a
large asteroid or other debris into the realspace location of a hyperspace travel route. The body would then create a mass shadow in
hyperspace, forcing the target ship's hyperdrive to shut down and revert the ship to realspace. Once the target was in realspace, the
pirates attacked at will while the target ship's command crew was still disoriented after being dragged out of hyperspace before their
destination. (PP)

Bastra, Gil
this acquaintence of Kirtan Loor once ridiculed Loor for using skirtopanol on an Alliance captive, even though the prisoner was known to
have used lotiramine. Bastra was a member of the Corellian Security agency at the time, and was in charge of assigning Imperial
Intelligence agents to Loor and other operatives. Bastra's low opinion of Loor led him to assign the worst agents to assist Loor, a fact
that was not lost upon Loor. Before that, Bastra was a business partner with Corran Horn's father. He worked with Corran, Iella and
Diric Wessiri, and a number of other Alliance supporters. When he needed to hide them from Imperial eyes, Bastra and Corran Horn
created false identification records for a group of smugglers. Then, in a staged confrontation, Bastra accused Horn of killing the
smugglers in cold blood. Thus, they all managed to flee Imperial control. When Bastra defected, he led Loor on a merry goosechase
across the galaxy, feeding Loor enough clues to keep him on Bastra's trail. This suited Bastra fine, because it drew Loor away from the
locations of the others in his group. When Loor finally captured Bastra, he savagely interrogated him but got no information. Bastra
finally died under the strain of the interrogation. (XWN)
Basz Maliyu
this Mon Calamari smuggler was believed to have been the traitor who betrayed the Syvris shadowport's location to the Empire. It was

Battle Droid
1) Ssi-ruuvi machines enteched with human brain energy, used as combat vehicles (TB)
2) the armed footsoldiers of the Trade Federation, these thin droids were the mainstay of the Federation’s armed forces. As in other
situations that required a show of force, the Trade Federation spared no expense in designing these droids to fight their battles. The
Federation’s droids were built by Baktoid Combat Automata to resembled the dissicated skeleton of the Neimoidians themsevles. This
fearsome shape stood 1.91 meters tall, was plated with white armor, and could carry and operate a wide range of weapons. A
backpack mounted to the droid contained much of the droid’s sensors and communications gear. They could be deployed in massive
numbers by using MTT tanks to bring them to the battle site. The droids were stored in a compact, fetal position in long racks aboard
the MTT, and were placed on the battlefield until a Droid Control Ship activated them. If there opponent started to turn back the battle
droid force, they were programmed to call in reinforcements, such as destroyer droids. The Neimoidians placed battle droids in every
area of their military, and distinguished their various uses by color. Red-shouldered droids served as security teams, blue-colored battle
droids served as pilots, while yellow-shouldered droids are part of the command structure. Plain white droids were infantry and soldiers.

Battle of Brentaal
one of the first major skirmishes in which Rogue Squadron was instrumental, the fledgling New Republic managed to defeat Imperial
forces and take control of the planet Brentaal. When Imperial Admiral Lon Isoto offered no direct resistance, Rogue Squadron took
control the moon Brentaal IV, from which it could stage the liberation of Brentaal. The only serious resistance they got was from the
st
181 Imperial Fighter Group led by Soontir Fel, but the Rogues were able to defeat Fel and tke control of Brentaal itself. (HXW, IR)
Battle of Denab
the battle in which the Imperial Fourth Attack Squadron of Victory-class Star Destroyers was routed by Alliance fighters. The Alliance
methodically concentrated firepower on single Star Destroyers until one was destroyed, then moved to another ship. The slow
Victory-class ships could not counteract the attack strategy, and were destroyed. (SWR)
Battle of Duro
this was the struggle between the rag-tag forces of the New Republic, sent to defend Duro and its orbital cities from the Yuuzhan Vong.
The battle was predicated on several events, all of which fell into place after the New Republic announced its plans to reclaim the
surface of the planet Duro. A team of scientists was formed to determine the best ways to restore Duro to its former natural state. The
New Republic agreed to fund the plan, provided that the Duros High House allow refugee settlements to be established in domed cities
on the planet’s surface. Initially, the Duros leaders refused, but a series of well-placed bribes eventually swayed the voting in favor of
the Republic’s plan. The bribes came from the Peace Brigade, who convinced several shipping concerns – such as CorDuro Shipping –
that the Yuuzhan Vong would allow them to retain one of Duro’s orbital cities in exchange for the surface of the planet and all the
refugees. Ultimately, however, the Yuuzhan Vong had no intention of letting anyone go free, especially when Warmaster Tsavong Lah
learned that Jaina and Jacen Solo, as well as their mother, Leia Organa-Solo, were all on Duro. The Yuuzhan Vong desparately wanted
to capture a live Jedi Knight, and the Warmaster thought he could finally capture one. Yuuzhan Vong forces moved in and attacked
Duro with a swift assault, made easier by the fact that the Duros High House believed the alien invaders were simply there to take
control of the surface. In a brutal attack nineteen of the twenty orbital cities surrounding Duro were destroyed by ychna ships, with just
Urrdorf City escaping the destruction. New Republic navy forces managed to hold off the Yuuzhan Vong assault force in order to rescue
the Solos, but Duro eventually fell to the Yuuzhan Vong. In the wake of the battle, Tsavong Lah claimed he would put an end to the
hostilities and leave the Core Worlds alone, provided that the New Republic turn over Jacen Solo to the Yuuzhan Vong. (BP)
Battle of Endor
Following the destruction of Hoth's Echo Base, the Alliance scattered throughout the galaxy in an effort to evade the Empire. A group of
Bothans, trying to prove their worth to the Alliance, were able to obtain information on the construction of a new Death Star.
Unbeknownst to them, the Emperor Palpatine let them have the data, in an effort to bring the Alliance to him for its final destruction. The
Alliance used the data and launched a two-pronged attack at Endor's forest moon and the new Death Star. The first part of the attack
involved ground troops penetrating Imperial defenses to deactivate the huge energy shield guarding the Death Star. The group - led by
Han Solo - accomplished this with the help of an unknown race called Ewoks. The second part of the plan involved a starship attack
similar to the one used at the Battle of Yavin. This time, however, the unfinished Death Star allowed the Alliance a chance to destroy
the main reactor directly, without the nearly-impossible shot at an exhaust port. The Emperor used this to his advantage, and tried to
lure Luke Skywalker to the Dark Side of the Force by having him watch the battle, in which a number of the Alliance's ships were lost. It
was later revealed that the Emperor was using a technique which allowed him to control the minds of much of the Imperial Navy. This,
in effect, allowed the Emperor to control the entire battle, as it was his will that was guiding the gunners and pilots of the Imperial Navy.
With the tide turning the Emperor's way, the Alliance's ground team managed to deactivate the shield, and allowed their fighters - led by
Lando Calrissian and Wedge Antilles - to penetrate the Death Star's hull and destroy the power generator. The Emperor was killed by
Darth Vader just prior to the destruction of the Death Star, but Vader was also mortally wounded, and died on the station as well.
As a result of the Emperor's death, the Imperial Navy had no idea how to continue the battle. The Emperor's will was no longer driving
them, and they were quickly unsure how to proceed. This allowed the Alliance's ships to move in and destroy 6 Star Destroyers and
rout the TIE Fighter squadrons. The remainder of the Imperial Navy limped away in a hasty retreat, allowing the Alliance to regain
rulership of the galaxy. (ROTJ, HTTE)
Battle of Fondor
following closely behind the Yuuzhan Vong victory at the Battle of Tynna, this struggle saw much of the orbital shipyards at Fondor
destroyed, along with thirty warships which were being refitted. The Yuuzhan Vong had leaked information to the New Republic that it
was going to attack either Corellia or Bothawui after taking Tynna, and the Republic was forced to leave Corellia undefended in an
effort to bluff the Yuuzhan Vong into attacking there. The New Republic Defense Force had hoped to use the repulsors on Centerpoint
Station to take out the enemy fleet. However, before the Republic could launch its attack, it learned that the Yuuzhan Vong were
attacking Fondor. Using swarms of coralskippers, the Yuuzhan Vong made a series of suicide runs at the planet’s facilities, causing
widespread damage without actively engaging the minimal security of the planet. In the end, the shipyards were left in ruins, and most
of the thirty warships at the planet were destroyed. The New Republic tried to use the Centerpoint Station repulsors to take out the
Yuuzhan Vong fleet at Fondor, but Anakin Solo refused to use the station as a weapon. Furious at the turn of events, Thrackan Sal-
Solo fired the weapon instead. However, he lacked the accuracy which only Anakin could draw from the Force, and his shot went just
wide. The intense blast of repulsor energy destroyed much of the Hapan fleet and part of the planet itself. It also wiped out the Yuuzhan
Vong armada before continuing through the system unabated. In the aftermath of the battle, the Hapes Consortium pushed to
completely isolate themselves from the rest of the galaxy. (JE)
Battle of Garqi
this battle was predicated on the New Republic's attempt to extract Corran Horn, Jacen Solo, Ganner Rhysode, and their Noghri
fighters from Yuuzhan Vong-held territory on Garqi. The New Republic's Admiral Traest Kre'fey brought a small force to Garqi during
the insertion effort, but they remained just outside the system in order to avoid detection. When Corran, flying the Best Chance, tried to
escape the planet, the Yuuzhan Vong sent a small force to intercept the shuttle. Admiral Kre'fey then moved the Ralroost into position
to collect the Best Chance, prompting a large retaliation by the Vong forces. A full-scale battle erupted over Garqi, with the New
Republic's forces taking a beating despite recovering the Jedi Knights. Just as the Vong were about to pummel the Republic's ships,
Imperial Admiral Gilead Pellaeon hypered into the system with a small fleet of his own. Pellaeon quickly interjected his warships
between the Republic's flagging forces and the Yuuzhan Vong, absorbing fire while attacking the alien ships. Realizing that they would
be beaten, the Yuuzhan Vong commander Shedao Shai ordered a full retreat, allowing the combined New Republic and Imperial forces
to gain a minor victory. (DTR)
Battle of Heg
nearly the decisive battle in the struggle for control of the planet Bundim, the Battle of Heg saw a resounding Imperial victory over the
Alliance forces trying to liberate the planet. Heg itself was leveled by Imperial forces in just three days, but the Alliance rallied and was
able to overcome the Imperials and restore freedom to the planet. The occupation and subsequent liberation of Bundim took place after
the Battle of Yavin. (GMK)
Battle of Hoth
Following the destruction of the first Death Star and other losses at the hands of the Alliance, the Empire began dispatching thousands
of remote probe droids to all sector of the galaxy. One of these probe droids located the Alliance's Echo Base on Hoth, and a fleet of
Star Destroyers, under the command of Darth Vader, were sent to destroy the base. Vader's Admiral, Ozzel, however, brought the fleet
out of hyperspace too soon, and the Alliance was alerted to the presence of the Imperial fleet. Vader sent General Veers to the planet's
surface with a group of AT-ATs, which decimated the Alliance forces and destroyed the main power generator. With the ground battle
lost, the Alliance used their early warning of the Imperial invasion to its best use, and quickly evacuated key personnel and equipment
under heavy fire from their ion cannon. The majority of the Alliance's Hoth base staff escaped to scatter across the galaxy. (ESB)
Battle of ILC-905
this fast, furious, eleven-minute engagement was first time New Republic forces had been able to attack and destroy a Yevethan
Aramadia-class thrustship. The Indomitable, under the command of Commodore Brand, initiated the assault when he discovered the
Yevetha were using the ILC-905 system to jump their thrustships into the Koornacht Cluster behind New Republic forces. Brand
decided to take out the thrustship they encountered, but two others jumped in behind it. In the heat of the battle, the Indomitable and
the Vanguard were joined by the Marauder. The thrustships Tholos and Rizaron fought back, destroying the Vanguard before Esege
Tuketo and Dogo were able to penetrate the Tholos’ shields and knock out its navigational systems. The thrustship spun out of control
and plunged into the nearby planet, and the Yevethans fled the system. (TT)
Battle of Ithor
this was one of the most tragic battles waged between the forces of the New Republic and the Yuuzhan Vong. Preceded by only a few
weeks by the Battle of Garqi, the struggle for Ithor was predicated on the fact that the pollen of the bafforr tree was deadly to the
vonduun crab armor worn by the Yuuzhan Vong. Corran Horn discovered this while on Garqi, and relayed the information back to the
New Republic military. Unfortunately, Shedao Shai received a report from Runsk Das on the defat at Garqi, and the Yuuzhan Vong also
discovered the effects of the pollen. In an effort to eliminate this advantage, the Yuuzhan Vong launched an assault on Ithor. They met
heavy resistance from the New Republic forces, which had been augmented by a fleet of Imperial Remnant ships commanded by
Admiral Pellaeon himself. Pellaeon and Traest Kre'fey had worked together on the defense, which included the ground support of Luke
Skywalker's Jedi Knights. As Rogue Squadron worked in space, the Jedi worked to defend the baffor groves against Yuuzhan Vong
gorund forces. The combined frepower of the Republic and the Imperial kept the Yuuzhan Vong starships at bay, and the ground forces
of Jedi Knights and soldiers managed to defeat Shedao Shai's own warriors. The outcome of the battle was placed in limbo, however,
when Shedao Shai and Corran Horn agreed to a duel. Corran fought for the planet Ithor, while Shedao Shai fought for the remains of
his ancestor, Mongei Shai. For two weeks, both sides retreated to lick their wounds and gather reinforcements, while the two
combatants prepared for their fight. Corran Horn managed to defeat Shedao Shai in their struggle, but the final blow of the battle was
yet to be dealt. In orbit, Deign Lian completed his treachery against Shedao Shai, unleashing a horrendous bioweapon on Ithor. Thick
gobs of the bioweapon struck the planet, and quickly reduced all plant life and much of the native animal life to dead husks. Ithor was
utterly destroyed, but the final blow hadn't been dealt, for Traest Kre'fey ordered the Corusca Rainbow to hold the Yuuzhan Vong fleet
in position, while the augmented New Republic forces pummeled them with laser fire. The Yuuzhan Vong fleet was decimated, and the
Legacy of Torment lost its drive systems and plunged into Ithor's surface, setting off planet-sweeping fires. (DTR)
Battle of Kashyyyk
this was the name given to the New Republic's effort to free the planet Kashyyyk from the control of the Second Imperium,
after Brakiss and the forces of the Shadow Academy tried to steal Imperial technology from the planet. (JE)
Battle of Korseg IV
this was one of the many battles that took place during the Galactic Civil War, during which the Alliance struggled to maintain its base
on the mountainous world of Korseg IV. (RPG, GMH)
Battle of N’zoth
this was the final battle of the Black Fleet Crisis, in which the New Republic implemented Operation Strong Hand against the Yevetha.
The Republic’s ships, aided by a false fleet generated by Wailu and Akanah, took the upper hand against the Yevethan fleet near
N’zoth. This cut off much of the coordination with other Yevethan warships in the Koornacht Cluster. The Yevethan warships were
severely beaten by the Republic’s ships, due mainly to the data gathered at the Battle of ILC-905 and the success of the Thunderhead.
Then, Sil Sorannan and his Camp Pa’aal Squadron stole a large piece of the Yevethan fleet and retook it in the name of the Empire.
This left the Yevetha without a central fleet and without a leader, for Nil Spaar was stranded in hyperspace by Sorannan. The remaining
Yevethan ships were quickly defeated, and the Republic survived the Black Fleet Crisis. (TT)
Battle of Naboo
although this struggle marked a high point in the history of Naboo, it marked the beginning of the end of the Old Republic. Forced by an
illegal blockade of the planet by the Trade Federation, the Battle of Naboo was really a diversionary tactic. The Trade Federation, led by
Nute Gunray but ultimatelt controlled by Darth Sidious, attempted to remove the taxation of trade routes by blockading Naboo. Sidious
ordered a planetary invasion, and the Neimoidian members of the Federation sent thousands of droid soldiers and tanks to the surface
of the planet. They were quickly able to subdue the native populace, as the humans of Naboo were quite peaceful and the Gungans hid
rather than become involved. Once the planet was secured, the majority of the Federation’s invasion fleet returned home, leaving a
skeleton force to control the droid armies on the ground. Queen Amidala, just fourteen at the time of the invasion, fled to Coruscant to
plea for aid in breaking the blockade, but received none from the stagnant Galactic Senate. All of this played into the schemes of Darth
Sidious. However, he did not count on the appearance of Anakin Skywalker and the strength of Amidala’s will. She devised a plan to
capture Gunray and force him to call of the blockade, but it hinged on two factors of battle. The first involved the Gungans, whom she
had persuaded to help in the fight. They called out the Federation’s droid armies in an intense land battle that raged across the plains of
Naboo. While this battle forced the droid armies into action, it left the city of Theed relatively undefended. Amidala, with Qui-Gon Jinn
and Obi-Wan Kenobi, forced their way into the palace and overcame the Neimoidians. Meanwhile, in the space above Naboo, the
Royal starfighter fleet had engaged the droid control ship. However, its shields were too powerful for the small N-1 fighters to penetrate.
A lone fighter, marginally controlled by Anakin Skywalker, penetrated the ship’s interior. During his attempts to flee the ship, Anakin
unleashed a volley of energy torpedoes that ruptured the control ship’s internal power sources. The huge ship began exploding from
within, and ripped itself apart in a matter of minutes. Anakin and the fighters escaped, and the droid armies on the ground were left
powerless. This came just as the droids had forced the Gungans to surrender. When they realized the droids were no longer able to
function, the Gungans rounded them up and dismantled them. In the end, Naboo was freed from Federation control, and the humans
and Gungans wlecomed a new era of cooperation between their peoples. (SW1)
Battle of Selaggis
this was the penultimate conflict between the forces of Imperial Warlord Zsinj and the New Republic fleet led by Han Solo and the Mon
Remonda. It was precipitated by a series of events, the first of which was Lara Notsil's defection from Wraith Squadron. She
volunteered to join Zsinj's forces, but actually was acting alone to bring the warlord down. She commandeered the use of the Iron Fist's
MSE-6 droid fleet, and set up systematic failures of the huge warship's computer, engine, and shield systems. After planting the notion
with Zsinj that the New Republic would try to take control of Vahaba - a star system within Zsinj's control - she then began her internal
attack. Meanwhile, she had also alerted the Republic of Zsinj's move to Vahaba, and Han Solo had dropped a good portion of his fleet
there. He was also supported by the Interdictor cruiser Stellar Web, on loan from Imperial Admiral Rogriss, who was also chasing Zsinj.
Solo's fleet nearly caught Zsinj at Vahaba, but they managed to escape into hyperspace. However, Lara had removed any reference to
the nearby Selaggis star system, so the Iron Fist and her fleet were dragged out of hyperspace before they had gone more than eight
light-years. Solo pursued and caught Zsinj at Selaggis Six, and the battle became a sluggin match. Zsinj was able to call in
reinforcements, since the Chains of Justice and a third of his fleet hadn't been able to jump from Vahaba with the rest. Zsinj felt that the
tide had turned until Solo's reinforcements arrived from Halmad. The Republic fleet pounded Zsinj, and the warlord was forced to use
his last-ditch effort. Employing a mock-up starship known as the Second Death, as well as a "tunnel" created with orbital nightcloaking
satellites, Zsinj fled with the Iron Fist into the tunnel as the Second Death was exploded nearby. When Solo's forces sifted through the
wreckage, all they found was evidence which supported the destruction of the Iron Fist. (SOC)
Battle of Tantive V
this battle pitted the forces of the fledgling New Republic against Admiral Gaen Drommel and his small fleet of ships. The Republic
destroyed two of Drommel's three Imperial Star Destroyers, and captured the third ship, the Wolf's Claw. Drommel's flagship, the
Guardian, took heavy damage, but managed to flee the battle. Drommel is believed to have survived the battle. (WBC)
Battle of Thyferra
this battle marked the end of the Bacta War, shortly after the Battle of Endor. Rogue Squadron had been waging the war on its own,
having resigned its commissioned with the New Republic in order to personally avenge the deaths of many squadron members at the
hands of Ysanne Isard. The Rogues managed to capture not only the Avarice but also the Virulence, the former being renamed the
Freedom and leading the attack on Thyferra. Several smaller freighters and transports also lent a hand on the side of the Rogues. The
Freedom bombarded the Lusankya - the primary ship guarding Thyferra - with proton torpedoes, destroying its shields and leaving it
defenseless in the opening act of the battle. Rogue Squadron added its own torpedoes, and then strafed the Lusankya with blaster fire.
The newly recommissioned war cruiser Valiant then joined in, raining lethal firepower on the huge Star Destroyer. Meanwhile, on the
surface of Thyferra, Iella Wessiri and Elscol Loro had led a team of infiltrators to join up with the Zaltin and Ashern factions, and worked
to destroy the Xucphra resources on the planet. They also managed to intercept Fliry Vorru as he tried to flee, and brought him to
Coruscant to stand trial. In space over the planet, the Lusankya began to destroy the smaller ships in the Rogue Squadron fleet, hoping
to take them out of the fight while making her own repairs. Then, Captain Drysso opened fire on the Freedom, crippling the smaller Star
Destroyer. The Freedom managed to get in some shots of her own, effectively taking out the larger ship's shields and leaving ti
defenseless. It was at this time that Ysanne Isard commanded the Lusankya to cover the escape of her personal shuttle, Thyfonian,
before both were lost in the battle. Captain Drysso disobeyed the order when the Virulence reappeared, thinking that he finally had the
reinforcements he needed to win the battle. However, the Virulence was now under the command of Booster Terrik, and it contained
several New Republic fighter squadrons, including Ace Squadron. Led by Pash Cracken, Ace Squadron redoubled the assault on the
Lusankya, and began taking sections of the ship out with their strafing runs. Drysso threatened to ram the ship into Thyferra, but he was
executed by Lieutenant Waroen, who then surrendered the ship and her crew to Rogue Squadron. The battle ended when Ysanne
Isard, fleeing the shuttle Thyfonian, was shot down by Tycho Celchu and Corran Horn. It was later revealed that Isard had been
remotely controlling the shuttle, and survived the battle. (BW, IR)
Battle of Ton-Falk
a battle which took place early in the Galactic Civil War, in which the Alliance was able to destroy two Imperial Nebulon-B frigates and a
Dreadnaught. This was accomplished because these two ships had to drop their compliments of TIE Fighters very near to the battle,
since the TIE Fighters lack hyperdrives. The Alliance starfighters ganged up on the larger, slower ships, and destroyed them. This
defeat led the Empire to develop Escort Carriers. (TIE, ISB)
Battle of Tynna
following in the heels of the subjugation of Gyndine by the Yuuzhan Vong, this battle saw the New Republic again powerless to stop the
advance of the aliens. In the end, Tynna was taken to lend credence to the rumors planted by the Yuuzhan Vong that Corellia and
Bothawui were the next targets for invasion. At the Tanallay Surge Complex, the Yuuzhan Vong unleashed a vicious bioweapon into
the water supply. In almost no time, the cold blue waters of Tynna were rendered lifeless and toxic. The plan was to spread the New
Republic's forces thin in an effort to protect both worlds. In reality, the Yuuzhan Vong struck at Fondor, wiping out much of the starship
production facility there. (JE)
Battle of Vnas
this Galactic Civil War battle raged near the planet Duro, and the Y-Wing starfighter played a prominent role in its outcome. (EGV)
Battle of Yavin
the Alliance, in a daring move, stole secret plans to the Empire's first Death Star battle station, and hid them with Artoo-Detoo. The little
droid managed to deliver the plans to the secret Alliance base on the fourth moon of Yavin, where Generals Willard and Dodonna used
the plans to form an attack on the Death Star. Since the space station was designed to combat large opponents, the Generals thought
that a group of small fighters could get inside the Death Star's defenses. An unshielded exhaust port provided them a target to the
station's main reactor, and the Alliance lured the Empire to Yavin. Once the Death Star was close enough to Yavin, the Alliance
launched its long-shot plan. X- and Y-wings were used to penetrate the Death Star's defenses, and although many Alliance pilots were
killed, Luke Skywalker managed to precisely fire a photon torpedo into the exhaust port and start the chain reaction which destroyed the
Death Star. (SW)
Battle of Yavin
this Alliance starship was a stolen Imperial customs frigate. It was used by New Republic intelligence operatives working from Black
Curs Base. They were forced to land the frigate on Hensara III, when the frigate was intercepted by the Imperial Strike-class cruiser
Havoc. The operatives eventually sank the frigate in a deep lake to avoid detection, but lacked the equipment to get it out and make it
flyable. (XWN)
Battle of Ylesia
this battle was organized by Bria Tharen and her Red Hand Squadron, and was aimed at toppling the Besadii spice and slave
enterprise there. Information on the Ylesian operation was provided by the Bothan Spynet, although they failed to report a ground-
based turbolaser. Bria obtained financial backing from Jabba the Hutt, and used smugglers from Nar Shaddaa to pilot the drop ships.
Among the smugglers was Han Solo, and the assault team also included a group of Togorians under the command of Muuurgh and
Mrrov. Nine assault teams were created to attack each of the nine Ylesian colonies. The Besadii forces had been bolstered by Durga
the Hutt's dealings with Black Sun, and were augmented by the Nova Force mercenaries. Jabba had employed several mercenaries to
assasinate the t'landa Til priests before the actual battle began, eliminating a key source of possible resistance. Then, in a coordinated
series of strikes, the rebel soldiers attacked the major slave colonies and engaged Nova Force. Most of the battles ended quickly, as
the Alliance teams surprised the Nova Force and decimated them before much resistance could be put up. Then, smugglers piloted
troop ships and rescue teams to the surface, but the turbolaser took out the first wave, including Jalus Nebl and the Dream of Freedom.
Once the turbolaser was eliminated, the ground troops accepted Nova Force's surrender. The battle ended almost as soon as it began,
and the Alliance successfully obtained huge amounts of spice and credits to fund its operations. Han and Chewbacca managed to
rescue a group of orphaned children from the planet, and were returning them to Corellian - along with a load of spice for Jabba - when
he was ambushed by Imperial forces. He was forced to dump the spice in order to save the children, placing him in debt to Jabba and
forcing him to take Ben Kenobi's offer for transport to Alderaan. (RD)

BD-27
this is the model number of a Corellian Engineering Corporation barge driver. The BD-27 was the predecessor to the Action-class
series of medium freighters, and defined the basic shape of that transport. A command and crew area was set forward of the engine
section, connected by a thin conduit. The entire ship can be connected to a cargo module capable of carrying 75,000 metric tons. The
BD-27 measured 100 meters in length, and its automated systems required a only a pilot and co-pilot to operate. The automation often
broke down, and required extensive maintenance. This ship had minimal shields and no armament. The BD-27, despite the flexibility of
the removable cargo pod, was quickly replaced by larger bulk freighters, and was relegated to use in small operations. (SWJ9)
BD-80
this was the New Republic ship's registry number of the Bakuran destroyer Sentinel. (CTD)

Beed
this was the name of one of the two heads of the Troig which served Jabba the Hutt as a podracing announcer, during the last years of
the Old Republic. Beed, along with his companion Fode, called the Boonta Eve race which was won by nine-year-old Anakin
Skywalker. Beed spoke primarily Huttese, in deference to his master, Jabba. This served to compliment Fode, who spoke the universal
language of Basic. Beed was distinguished from Fode by its green skin coloration. Beed’s voice was provided by Scott Capurro for Star
Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. (SW1, IG1)
Beedo
a Rodian relative of Greedo's who went to work for Jabba the Hutt following Greedo's death. He was a notorious syncophant, and was
afraid of Jabba’s wrath should he make a mistake. (ROTJ, CCG7)
Beeli, Venslas
this noted pirate was one of the most feared pirates of the New Order. Little was known of his background, but except that he first
appeared as an out-of-work spacer in the Outer Rim Territories. After gaining employment on a pirate ship, Beeli found his own calling:
seizing other ships. He was famous for his headlong rushes into a captured ship, blasters blazing as he quickly secured it for his group.
When the pirate group broke up, Beeli joined forces with several other pirates and formed the Solar Terrors. They were hunted down by
the Empire and Beeli quickly surrendered. He was approached by Vocis Kenit and offered a deal: his life in return for service to the
Empire. Beeli agreed to help Kenit by pretending to be a privateer team hoping to join the Alliance. In this way, Kenit hoped the Solar
Terrors would hunt down the Far Orbit. To insure Beeli's cooperation, Kenit infected the Solar Terrors with Vira606, and rationed out the
serum as the pirates performed their roles. (FOP)
Been L'toth
this Dornean was the son of Kiles L'toth, and eventually took his father place at the head of the Astrographic Survey Institute when
Kiles assumed command of the Fifth Fleet. Been and his teams were charged with discovering the exact origins of the Yuuzhan Vong,
and felt that they had to be extra-galactic in origin. L'toth rejected the theory that the Vong had evolved in the Tingel Arm, citing the
area's proximity to the Corporate Sector and the Imperial Remnant, and pointing out that an advanced civilization so close to those
densely-populated areas would have been discovered years ago. (HT)
Beetle Moth
an insect native to Yavin 4. (DK)
Beezer
this Alliance Corporal was chosen as a member of Han Solo's ground team that assaulted the shield generator of the second Death
Star on Endor's Forest Moon. A slicer by trade, she was trained as a scout by Brooks Carlson. Beezer specialized in the use of
communications and sensors, and was uncomfortable with General Solo’s unorthodox techniques. (MTS, CCG10)
Begeren
the Alliance won an early battle against the Empire on this planet. (GG12)
Beggar's Canyon
a great place to fly a skyhopper on Tatooine, Luke Skywalker refined his piloting skills there. Located between the edge of the Dune
Sea and Ebe Crater Valley, Beggar’s Canyon was named for the hermits who lived there, before they were driven off by Jabba the Hutt.
Situated near Ben’s Mesa, the canyon was formed from a series of smaller, interconnected canyons which criss-cross the desert,
including the Main Avenue, Dead Man's Turn, and the Eye of the Needle. Before Luke and his friends used the canyon, it was part of
the Mos Espa podracing course. (SW, SE, IWE1)

Beidlo
this young B'omarr monk was assigned to be Hoole's escort during the time the Shi'ido worked for Jabba the Hutt, translating ancient
B'omarr scrolls to pay of a debt. He was quite jovial and animated for a B'omarr, having been with the order for only a short time before
Hoole arrived with his charges, Tash and Zak Arranda. Beidlo's parents had been killed in a Tusken Raider attack, and the monks had
taken him in and provided for him. However, Beidlo was one of the victims of Jabba the Hutt's scheme to place criminal brains into new
bodies, allowing them to continue their ways without being recognized. Beidlo's brain was removed and placed into a brain spider, while
a criminal's brain was inserted into Beidlo's body. When Hoole and Zak defeated Grimpen's plans, Beidlo decided to remain as a brain
spider, since he had one day hoped to become enlightened. (GOF7)
2) this Rodian worked as a bodyguard to Treytis Prash, until he was shot and killed by Celia Durasha. Celia was led by Thune to

Beija Major, and the smaller Beija Minor. They were separated by the thin strip of land which connected the Jhunia snow plains to the
Yiulimar Fjords. (BSS)
Beju
this young man was a Prince of the Beju-Tallah dynasty some twelve years before the Battle of Naboo. His mother Veda, the Queen of
Gala, realized that the dynasty would not survive for long, as it had grown corrupt and was held in contempt by many of the planet's
people. She chose not to simply abdicate the throne to Prince Beju, but opened up a general election to allow the people to choose her
successor. Prince Beju was one of the three candidates, although he hated his mother for her blocking of his ascension. The Queen
enlisted the aid of the Old Republic, who asked that two Jedi Knights be dispatched to ensure fairness in the election. Qui-Gon Jinn and
Obi-Wan Kenobi were sent to Gala, but they were hijacked to Phindar by Paxxi Derida before they could get there. However, while on
Phindar, the Jedi learned that Beju was working to strike an alliance with the Syndicat. Beju had begun a false bacta shortage on his
planet, and needed additional funding to ensure he was elected to fill his mother's place. He hoped to obtain more bacta and then
return to Gala with it, in an effort to be recognized as a hero. This would then give the Syndicat a chance to take control of Gala.
However, on the day Beju was to travel to Phindar to cement the alliance, Obi-Wan had been dumped on the planet Gala, supposedly
without memories, by the Syndicat. He used the Force to ward off the effects of the renewal process, and managed to capture Beju's
personal transport and the Prince himself. Obi-Wan then played the part of the Prince when they landed on Phindar. This allowed Qui-
Gon and the Derida brothers to rally the populace of Phindar and expose the plans of the Syndicat, but not before Terra recognized
Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan quickly played the part of an imperious prince and avoided a confrontation. As Obi-Wan used his impersonation of
Beju to expose the Syndicat and bring it down, the real Beju escaped his bonds and managed to regain control of his and return to
Gala. Later, as the Jedi discovered that the elections in Galu were being manipulated, Beju's position was tarnished by Lonnag Giba,
who began taking matters into his own hands, but under the guise of commands from Beju himself. Giba attempted to assassinate Elan
and arrested Queen Veda herself, all under the pretense that Beju was now in command. Beju, after learning from Viso that he was not
the true heir, exposed Giba as a traitor and threw his support to Wila Prammi. Beju was selected to serve as one of Prammi's aides, in
deference to his years of royal training. (HP, MOC)

this Iotran was a loyal and brutally efficient enforcer who worked for the Nalroni crimelord Sprax during the height of the Galactic Civil
War. After learning that the Yen-2 mining colony was refusing to pay its protection money to Sprax, Bel Att hired Limna Yith and her
mercenary band to help retake control of the colony. They were successful in doing so, even destroying an Imperial force on the
planetoid, before Yith discovered the colony's computer records were full of information on Jatayus Outbound and its connections to
Black Sun. Bel Att was forced to stop her from stealing the computer data, but Limna Yith was too fast for him. She slit his throat with a
vibroblade before he could even reach his weapon. (SSR)
bel-dar-Nolek
this immense man was the Director of the Obroan Institute during the Black Fleet Crisis, when Joto Eckels was exploring the planet
Maltha Obex. He was once a prolific explorer, but retired from fieldwork to run the Institute. He believed that archaeology and
exploration should not be rushed, since the artifacts that could be found had already waited several millennia. He was part of a faction
of educators who felt that the New Republic had basically abandoned Obroa-skai to the Yuuzhan Vong, after the planet was destroyed
in an unprovoked Yuuzhan Vong attack. He also blamed the Jedi Knights for the death of Elegos A'Kla. After the New Republic Senate
explained that there was no way they could have saved Obroa-skai, bel-dar-Nolek threatened to enter into an alliance with the Yuuzhan
Vong in order to recover the data stolen or lost when Obroa-skai was devastated. . (TT, HT)

Belarus-class Cruiser
one of the earliest starship designs approved by the New Republic, the Belarus-class saw limited production. It was designed by
Loronar from their popular Strike-class cruiser, and was a bit more efficient in terms of its crew complement but much less adaptable in
terms of modularity. Its single-design construction made it cheap to produce. The weapons systems on the Belarus-class cruiser were
improved laterally, with 5 turbolaser cannons, 5 turbolaser batteries, 2 ion cannons, and 2 tractor beam projectors on each flank, but the
rear quarter was virtually defenseless. Five additional turbolaser cannons, an ion cannon, and 4 tractor beam projectors protect the
forward quarter, while only a pair of tractor beam projectors are found at the rear. The Belarus-class measured 400 meters in length,
was equipped with a Class-2 hyperdrive, and required a crew of 1,753, with 125 gunners and room for up to 410 troops. (BTS, CTD)

Belden, Eppie
a strong-willed woman, the former EppeAntruse was married to Bakuran senator Orn Belden, and was a member of the Bakuran
resistance to Imperial nationalization. Eppie was later known as a “circuitry commando,” using computers and electronics to assist in
the sublimation of Imperial efforts. She was 132 standard years old at the time of the Battle of Endor, married to Orn for 101 of them,
and suffering from what Imperial doctors had described as a degenerative brain disorder. In reality, she accepted an Imperial parasite
that incapacitated her in exchange to her husband's protection. After Orn’s death at the hands of Imperial interrogators, Eppie struggled
to help Luke Skywalker and the Alliance overthrow the Ssi-ruuk as well as the Empire. Following the Battle of Bakura, the parasite in
Eppie’s brain was revealed and removed, and she quickly regained strength. (TB, TBSB)
Belden, Orn
this enignmatic and controverisal Bakuran senator was 164 standard years old at the time of the Battle of Endor, and was living with his
second prosthetic heart. Shortly after the Empire nationalized Bakura, Orn began supporting the Alliance and its plans to overturn the
Empire. Imperial Governor Wilek Nereus wanted to eliminate Orn, but the Senator’s public position prohibited any direct action. Instead,
Nereus modified the taxation system to virtually impoverish Orn and his wife of 101 years, Eppie. After Eppie was caught during an anti-
Imperial demonstration, Nereus forced her to be implanted with a parasite that damaged her brain, rendering her virtually senseless.
Orn was forced to spend most of his free time tending to her needs. After the Battle of Endor and the arrival of the Alliance on Bakura,
Nereus had Orn arrested for collaborating with Leia Organa. He died during an interrogation session, although the Imperials blamed it
on the Alliance team and Luke Skywalker. (TB, TBSB)
Belden, Roviden
this young man, the son of Bakuran Senator Orn Belden, was killed in one of the Imperial purges on Bakura. (TB)
Beldon
a huge, floating creature that inhabits the lower atmosphere of the planet Bespin, the beldon is a balloonlike gasbag that consumes the
materials that swirl around the outer, molten layers of Bespin's core. Occasionally, the beldons will rise into the upper atmosphere,
feeding on the aerial algae and plankton by dropping thin tentacles into the clouds. There are a number of gas prospectors who claim
that the beldon gives off tibanna gas as a by-product of digesting rethin, metals and other elements, but this has never been proven.
The management of Cloud City, however, made it illegal to hunt beldons, just in case they actually did produce the precious gas.
Another unique characteristic of the beldon is that it is surrounded by a low-power electrical field. This field appears to have no purpose.
(GG2, ISU)
Beldon’s Eye
this sculpture rests in the very center of Cloud City. Formed from two circular curves which wrap around each other, the sculpture was
an artistic representation of the eye of the beldon. It was the symbol of the Cloud City Miner’s Guild. (CCG5)
Beldonna's League
this group of freelance mercenaries was hired by the Imperiak Consul-general of Kothlis to help maintain peace during the Galactic Civil
War. Over time, the League became soft and complacent, and willingly took bribes to overlook certain crimes. (PSG)
Beldorion
this large Hutt once trained as a Jedi Knight. Like all Hutts, his ego often preceeded him, and he prefered to be called Beldorion the
Splendid or Beldorion of the Ruby Eyes. He had a strong affinity for the Force (a trait not often found in Hutts), but had no real control.
He claimed he was sent to the planet Nam Chorios with Taselda, as part of a mission requested by their Jedi Masters. However, it is
believed that they went to Nam Chorios hoping to obtain additional strength in the Force. He was drawn to the planet by its unusually
high concentration of the Force, and found himself vying for the control of the small settlement there with Taselda. Beldorion’s
limitations were obviated by his inability to form his own lightsaber, so he attempted to steal Taselda’s in an effort to obtain complete
control. He failed at this, but had captured the interest of Dzym. The huge droch used Beldorion much as he had Taselda, gathering
strength from his limited control of the Force. In this way, Beldorion surplanted Taselda as the leader of the settlement. This
arrangement lasted until Dzym took control of Seti Ashgad and put the human in Beldorion’s place. The Hutt continued to live on Nam
Chorios, never escaping from Dzym’s ultimate power. It was Beldorion who bargained with Dymurra for the use of several Loronar
synthdroids as part of Dzym’s plans to take control of the galaxy. Beldorion briefly enslaved Callista, when she tried to discover the
Force on the planet, but she escaped him and fled to the mountains. He and Ashgad had a well-publicized struggle for control, which
lasted until Dzym forced Ashgad to capture Leia Organa-Solo. Beldorion tried to control Leia’s untapped potential for the Force, in an
effort to take Taselda’s lightsaber and defeat Ashgad. In this effort, Beldorion managed to recover the lightsaber. He intercepted Leia
and Luke Skywalker as they tried to repair a ship and take off after Dzym and Seti Ashgad, and became engaged in lightsaber combat
with Leia. Leia, having trained with Callista, managed to defeat the Hutt, slicing him open and mortally wounding him. (POT)

Belezaboth Ourn
this Paqwe, which carried the title "Extraordinary Consul of the Paqwepori," was a spy working on Coruscant for Nil Spaar. Ourn's job
was to monitor the progress of the Fifth Battle Group, reporting its missions to Spaar. Ourn was the owner of the starship Mother's
Valkyrie, which was purposely destroyed during the liftoff of the Aramadia. Ourn was able to relay information about the mission to take
control of the Koornacht Cluster, which resulted in Spaar capturing Han Solo. However, when the role of the Valkyrie was discovered by
Ilar Paqwe, the entire crew was reprimanded and reduced in social standing. Ourn himself had his appointment as Extraordinary
Consul revoked by Ilar Paqwe. Rather than return home to humiliation and disgrace, he turned himself in to Leia Organa-Solo and the
New Republic. He provided the device which was given to him to communicate with Spaar, allowing the Republic’s communications
experts to discover Yevethan plans for the Koornacht Cluster and the galaxy in general. (BTS, SOL, TT)

Belkadan
this planet, located in the Outer Rim's Dalonbian sector, was the site of the ExGal-4 outpost shortly before the start of the Yuuzhan
Vong invasion. This was the first planet on the Yuuzhan Vong Vector Prime, and was destroyed in order to draw attention away from
the Yuuzhan Vong base on Helska. The planet was, at one time, dominated by dalloralla tree jungles, and was a beautiful wilderness at
the edge of the galaxy. Yomin Carr unleashed a colony of dweebits on the planet, which quickly multiplied and affected the plantlife on
the planet, rendered the planet's atmosphere a stormy, toxic soup which killed all life. However, just two months after the initial invasion,
Belkadan seemed to return to a normal life. Plants and animals were discovered by New Republic scouts, although Luke Skywalker and
Jacen Solo discovered that the lifeforms were actually Yuuzhan Vong biological constructs tended by weakened slaves. The native
plantlife had been overtaken by dense, green vines that provided nutrients and energy to the growing yorik coral. (VP, DTO)

Belt-Runner I
this was one of the floating stations Lando Calrissian used to monitor and maintain the ships running through Lando's Folly, near
Destrillion and Dubrillion. The specially-adapted TIE starfighters used to run the asteroid belt were protected by Belt-Runner I with a
system known as collision shields, a combination of repulsor fields, shields, and defensive arrays to protect the small ships, all of which
were operated from the remote station. When the Yuuzhan Vong moved to wipe out Dubrillion, Lando was forced to use his forces in a
defensive capacity. His ships were not designed for this, however, and when Belt-Runner I took heavy fire, it was forced to withdraw the
shielding energy it provided to the starfighters in order to protect itself. This was not enough to save Belt-Runner I, though, as the
statoin continued to take heavy fire from the Yuuzhan Vong and was eventually reduced to cinders. (VP)
Beltane

Ben Quadinaros
this flat-bodied Toong was one of the Outer Rim’s least-experienced podracer pilots. He drove a lumbering, Balta-Trabaat BT410
Quadra-Pod podracer that was propelled by four engines, instead of the usual two. Ben entered the Boonta Eve Classic podracer on a
bet from Boles Roor. Just after the start of the race, which was won by Anakin Skywalker, the energy binders on Ben’s pod were unable

during their search for agent Nallok. Polag agreed to help the agents, but instead sold them to the Imperial forces on the planet. (IA)
Bennova
this con artist managed to pursuade a group of Alliance operatives to search out a ship for him, in return for a group of old Nebulon-B
frigates. Bennova was really trying to recover the ship from Treetor. (RPG).
Benon
this planet, located within the Delantine system, is the world closest to the primary planet of Delantine. (SA1)
Bentail
this creature, native to the planet Shaum Hii, is a large avian used by the Kian'thar as transportation. They feed on the fish of the
planet's oceans. Each Kian'thar establishes a bond with its bentail, and the rapport between them allows them to anticipate each other's
actions during the round-up of derlacs. (GG12)
Benthar
this youth, a native of Starpoint on Draenell's Point, was the leader of the gang known as Benthar's Boys. After his girlfriend and
second-in-command, Droxie, left him to join the Vibroblades, Benthar was kidnapped by the Vibroblades and held for ransom. There
was a team of Alliance agents on the planet, investigation the construction of the Empire's suuply depot in the system, and they were
drawn into the gangwar when they exposed Plessus Weege as an Imperial spy. The agents helped rescue Benthar, then convinced
both gangs to stop fighting each other and start working against the Empire. (GMK)
Benthar's Boys
this gang of youths was quite powerful during the height of the New Order, but found a dangerous rival in the Vibroblades after the
Empire took control of their homeworld, Draenell's Point. The Imperial presence only served to escalate their gangwar, as it brought out
tensions which had remained hidden. After a group of Alliance agents rescued Benthar from the Vibroblades, they convinced both
gangs to combine their efforts and fight against the Empire, instead of battling against themselves. (GMK)
Beolo
this man served as Jabba the Hutt's majordomo shortly before Narool Cuthas took the position. Beolo had his own opinion of things,
and saw and heard only what he wanted to. During his employment with Jabba on Tatooine, Beolo kept a womp rat named Worra as a
pet. (CCG9)
Bepp

(COJ)
Ber'asco
the leader of the Charon race, Ber'asco was also the commander of the starship Desolate. He had his natural body armor augmented
by his bioscientists to the point that he was virtually indestructible. His rise to power within the Charon death cult has led him to believe
that he is the Final Prophet, meant to lead his people to extinguish all non-Charon life and lead the Charon into the Void. However,
even after eliminating all life in Otherspace, Ber’asco had not received any answers about how to truly enter the Void. When the
Alliance transport Celestial was flung into Otherspace and captured by the Desolate, Ber’asco thought that he had found the missing
link to the Void. Grand Moff Ravik told him of the multitude of life that existed outside Otherspace, and Ber’asco allowed Ravik to live in
return for passage to realspace. When Alliance agents attempted to rescue the crew of the Celestial, Ber’asco’s plans were thwarted,
but only temporarily. He survived their assault and fled back into the recesses of Otherspace, where he planned an assault on the
known galaxy. He had his Charon bioscientists design a hyperdrive for the Desolate, and planned to use coordinates from the captured
vessel Celestial to make his jump. However, when Ber’asco linked to the ship’s computer to coordinate the jump, the mind of Grand
Moff Ravik attacked. Ravik took control of Ber’asco’s body, and flung his mind into the computer’s recesses. Ber’asco eventually found
Bane Nothos’ body in cryogenic storage, and took control of it. Ber’asco pursued Ravik to Stronghold, an Alliance safeworld, where he
joined with a group of Alliance soldiers to halt the Charon advance and defeat Ravik. In a physical struggle that paralleled their mental
battle, Ravik crushed the human form of Ber’asco and killed both Nothos and Ber’asco, but not before sustaining large amounts of
damage himself. (OS, OS2)
Berandis
this Adumari male was the assistant manager of the Challabae Admits-No-Equal Aerial Eruptive Manufacturing Concern, in the city of
Cartann on Adumar. He escorted Wedge Antilles and his Red Flight pilots on a tour of the proton torpedo manufacturing facility. He was
a thin man with a ridiculously curled moustache held in place with some sort of wax. (SOA)
Berason
this planet was blockaded by the Empire for its political stance regarding the New Order. Its economy was based on low-tech mining
exports, and depended on food and medical supplies imported from other worlds. The Empire used Defender ion mines to keep
starships away. Airen Cracken and a group of Alliance starships got through the blockade by sending out agents in vacuum suits to
disarm the mines. (CFG)
Berchest
primary planet in the Berchest system, it was a major tourist attraction during the Old Republic, mainly because of Calius saj Leeloo.
The Clone Wars severely reduced the tourist trade, and Berchest suffered. When the Empire came into power, Berchest was usurped
as an Imperial trade trade world, and has remained under Imperial control following the Battle of Endor. It is described in The Last
Command Sourcebook that Berchest is in the Anthos Sector, but The Last Command infers that Berchest is in the Orus Sector. (TLC)
Berd
this Harixian youth escaped from the Gektl Rahz with the help of Luke Skywalker, C-3PO, and R2-D2. He was adamantly against any
further actions that didn't directly lead to the rescue of his mother, Myoris, who was still in Rahz's control. Together, they managed to
outwit Rahz and rescue Myoris. (CSWEA)
Berea
the primary planet in the Berea System in the Elrood Sector, Berea is a rocky, mountainous world which was owned and operated by

Bergless
this man was the Imperial sub-prefect on the planet Korbin, until he met with an untimely death. Many felt that Gornt Seron waqs behind
his death, since Bergless made no attempt to hide his distaste for the criminal. Bergless fell to his death from his office, an event which
many belived was suicide until sub-prefect Neris lost his life in a similar manner after meeting with Seron. (GG11)
Bergruutfa
this creature, native to the planet Sriluur, is used by the Weequay in their ritual sacrifices to their gods. Note that Creatures of the
Galaxy claims bergruutfa were native to Teloc Ol-sen. They were also used by other races as beasts of burden, and were known for
their loyalty and stamina. Bergruutfas were also known to be keenly intelligent and even possess a sense of humor, learning names
and commands quickly and hiding their owner’s personal effects as a practical joke. The average bergruutfa stood seven meters tall at
the shoulder, and had a large, bony crest surrounding their heads. Their wide snouts produce a lot of saliva, which can create puddles
of mud in their wake. (GG12, ROE, COG)

Berrann
this Barabel shockboxer was taught to fight at an early age. When he wsa old enough, he left Barab I and made a name for himself
working for Jabba the Hutt. Jabba sponsored Berrann, whose unique style won him more fights than any other shockboxer in the
modern era. When Jabba told Berrann to take a dive against a much weaker opponent and promised riches beyond compare, Berrann
found the offer a personal affront. Berrann defeated his opponent in the first round, then fled the system with Jabba's goons on his
heels. He found work with another major crimelord, hoping one day to exact a measure of revenge against Jabba. (HR)
Berri
this planet is the homeworld of the Berrite race. It is a hot, smog-shrouded world with higher-than-standard gravity and little natural food
sources. It is located in the Inner Rim. (GG12)
Berrille Ada
this man-sized arachnoid alien ran a starship repair and outfitting business on Ord Mantell during the height of the Galactic Civil War.
(SL)
Berrite
a race of slug-like centaurians, the Berrites have a short stature and sluggish appearance. Their thick bodies are covered in heavy
wrinkles of skin, and are supported by four stout legs and wide, three-clawed feet. Their upper torsos are humanoid, with two arms that
end in spade-like hands. They have small, deep-set eyes and an open mouth, with five breather tubes along each side of their faces.
They have developed geothermal energy sources, and have developed huge factories around this readily available power source. They
have learned to cultivate their aspect of dullness when engaged with other races, for it allows them to scan their immediate
surroundings with ultrasonic waves. This causes unknowing adversaries to understimate the Berrite abilities while allowing the Berrite
to gain a measure of defense. Berrites are hermaphroditic, and have problems understanding the male/female differences. (GG12)

well as a saboteur, disabling those ships which Abek wanted to capture. (SSR)
Berusa
this is the first planet in the Garos System. (SWAJ)
Beruss, Avan
a member of the Illodian Beruss family, Avan was a crack starpilot who graduated honors from the Illodian Officers' Academy. He was
also a decent sharpshooter, and would have represented Illodia in the Imperial Games if they hadn't been canceled with the destruction
of the planet Alderaan. Instead of joining the local defense force, Avan joined the Alliance after his childhood friend, Leia Organa,
began working with them. Avan had been serving as an aide to his father, Doman, using his skills to pick up the accents of various
member worlds. Doman, an Imperial Senator at the time, strongly disagreed with Avan's decision, fearing Imperial reprisal if Avan's
actions were discovered. Avan eventually made it to the Alliance, and following the Battle of Endor was given a position with Rogue
Squadron. Most of his piloting skills had been learned in the private sector, since he never attended the Imperial Academt. He learned a
great deal from Feylis Ardele about Imperial TIE Fighters, augmenting his own piloting skills. When Soontir Fel defected to the New
Republic after the Battle of Brentaal, Avan was assigned to be his wingman. Like most members of the Illodian Beruss family, Avan's
emotions were basically extinct, until he met Feylis Ardele. He soon found himself falling in love with Feylis, and they worked hard to
keep their relationship a secret. (XWES, HXW, MBF, XWM)
Beruss, Doman
1) a flaxen-haired female Corellian serving with the Alliance, Doman was one of the founders of the New Republic. Beruss later served
as chariman of the Republic’s Ministry council. Like the Doman Beruss from Illodia, she was named after an ancestor. She was also
Avan Beruss' great-aunt. (HTSB, XWES)
2) a member of the primary branch of the Beruss family, Doman was a native of the planet Illodia. Named for a great ancestor, Doman
was a member of a long line of political figures from his homeworld, following in the footsteps of his father, two uncles, his sixth
grandfather, and his ninth great-grandmother as the representative to Coruscant’s government. Doman was an Imperial Senator and a
friend of Bail Organa, which allowed his son Avan to become friends with Leia Organa. Many years later, after joining the cause of the
New Republic, it was Beruss who urged Leia Organa-Solo to step down from her position as Chief of State, during the so-called Black
Fleet Crisis. (WG, SOL, TT, XWES)

this silvery metal was used to create antique-looking metalware. (WSV)
Besadii
this is one of the most powerful Hutt kajidics, and was ruled by Aruk during the early years of the New Order. It was Besadii that created
the slave trade on the planet Ylesia, placing Teroenza in command while reaping profit both from spice production and slaves. Besadii
then established a loose alliance with the Empire, supplying slaves from the Ylesian operation in return for exemptions from taxes. They
tried to cripple the Desilijic clan by employing Drell pirates to attack their spice shipments, but they were discovered by the quick piloting
and military knowledge of Han Solo. In the aftermath of the Battle of Nar Shaddaa, Besadii began raising the price of processed spice
in an effort to weed out the lesser kajidics. When Jiliac called a convocation of the ruling Hutts, Jabba eloquently used the fact that
Besadii had escaped from th Battle of Nar Shaddaa without a single loss to sway a vote against Besadii. As a result, the Hutt Council
voted that Besadii be fined 1,000,000 credits – to be evenly distributed among the other kajidics – as well as lower the cost of
processed spice. (THG, RD)
Besberra
primary planet in the Besberra System. (SWAJ)
Bescane
this cool, temperate world is located in the Obtrexta System, and is densely overpopulated and heavili\y industrialized. The surface of
the planet is covered with ugly factories and boxy dwellings, and much of the environment has been destroyed in an effort to obtain raw
materials. Most of the workers who toil on the planet were lured there with promises of wealth, only to find themselves heavily in debt to
the company which hired them. The planet’s goverment is run through the corporate offices of Galentro Heavy Works. The average day
on Bescane lasts 30 standard hours, and the year lasts 332 local days. Most of the planet is divided into sections known as “hubs,”
each with a specialized industry or processing operation. It was here, from among the disconsolate workers, that Moff Jesco Comark

Bespin
this cloud-covered gas giant was the third planet in the Bespin system. Along with Cloud City, it is known for the tibanna gas it exports
as well as for being a major location for playing sabacc. One of the major variations of sabacc is named for the planet, another for
Cloud City. It is located just off the Corellian Trade Route. It has a number of natural satellites, and is located near the Anoat System.
The gas giant has a quick rotation, taking only twelve standard hours to complete one revolution. Bespin's diameter measures some
118,000 kilometers. Much of the cloud cover over Bespin is well over 1,000 kilometers thick, and surrounds an outer core of seething
molten rethin and compressed gas some 52,000 kilometers deep. This outer core exceeds 6,000 degrees, and covers a ball of solid
metal 6,000 kilometers across. The average day on Bespin lasts twelve standard hours, but the year lasts 14 standard years. (ESB,

fo Kessel. They turned the prison-labor operation into a legitimate spice-producing company. (JASB)
Betha II
this low-gravity planet is located within the Betha System, which sits at the midpoint of the Danarc Run in Corva Sector. It is a popular
world with the smugglers who ply the Run. It was believed to be the center of operations for the Kaarenth Dissension by New Republin
Intelligence. The planet is really nothing more than a yellow-orange ball of rock. Its thin atmosphere contains very little moisture, leaving
the surface of the planet barren and dry. Many millennia before the Galactic Civil War, Betha II was much more inviting, as its
atmosphere still held water. This made is a thriving port along the Danarc Run. However, the planet’s low gravity mean that it couldn’t
hold its atmosphere for long, and this eventually led to the drying out of the planet’s ecosystem. The original colonists abandoned the
world, and it was uninhabited until smugglers began using it as a based some 30 years before the Battle of Bilbringi. The average day
on Betha II lasts 20 standard hours, and its year encompasses 117 local days. Very little habitation exists aboveground on the planet,
since the dry surface is often swept clean by dust and sand storms. The caves and canyons of the planet have been expanded and
connected with tunnels to support life underground. (SWJ8)

Bib Fortuna
an Una clan Twi'lek, Bib Fortuna was most infamous as Jabba the Hutt's advisor and major domo. Little is known about his
background, although it is known that he was among the first Twi'leki to realize that the ryll spice found on Ryloth could be sold at a
large profit throughout the galaxy. Fortuna's actions drew the attention of the Empire, which descended on Ryloth and took the Twi'lek
as slaves. Fortuna was condemned by his peers, his family name was disgraced and its holdings seized, and he was made an outcast
and a fugitive. Fortuna began his revenge by stealing valuables from high-ranking Twi'leki officials, and was in the right place at the
right time when Jabba came to Ryloth in search of slaves. Fortuna had simply planned to steal jewels and other valuables from other
Twi'leki, but instead found the rubble and destruction caused by Jabba's slavers. In the rubble, he found Nat Secura and took the child
to Jabba, claiming that the Hutt would find amusement in controlling the last survivor of a great Twi'lek house. It is for these reasons
that the Twi'leks pronounce his name Bib'fortuna, which twists the meaning of his true name, Bibfort'una, to indicate the evil he
represents. Jabba had taken Fortuna as an employee and Secura as a slave back to Tatooine. Fortuna's desire for power kept him in
good standing with the crimelord. Fortuna and Bidlo Kwerve were in constant competition for Jabba's attention. When the rancor was
discovered in the Tatooine desert by Jawas, Fortuna saw that Kwerve might have a better hold on Jabba's good side. Fortuna had to
find a way to get Kwerve out of the picture, for it was Kwerve who had recovered the creature from the Jawas. When the two presented
the rancor to Jabba, Kwerve puffed himself up in an effort to win Jabba's favor. Fortuna used it against him, making it seem like
bravado and showmanship. Jabba disapproved, and sent Kwerve to the rancor as its first meal. Fortuna's first step toward fame and
fortune had landed successfully. During his employment under Jabba, Fortuna's main duty was to scout out any plots against Jabba,
and warn the Hutt of them. He also served as a "talent scout" for Jabba, and was responsible for bringing Oola and other dancers to
Jabba's palace. In reality, Fortuna was looking out for himself. He used many of the plots as smoke screens to cover his own plots.
Fortuna had grown rapidly disgusted with the Hutt, and secretly plotted with the B'omarr monks that lived in Jabba's palace against him.
He hated the monks almost as much as he hated Jabba, for the disembodied brothers always frightened him. His first encounter with a
"brain walker" had led to his firing a blaster at it, killing the disembodied brain. However, Fortuna realized that the monks had built the
castle, and they still roamed it, keeping a great deal of secrets. Fortuna, however, was not out to claim Jabba's position as crimelord; he
simply wanted to acquire enough power and wealth to return to his homeworld of Ryloth and conquer it. He planned to use Nat Secura
as a sign to the Twi'lek that Fortuna was the only choice as ruler. When Luke Skywalker rescued Han Solo and Princess Leia had
killed Jabba, Fortuna fled to the cargo hold of Jabba's sail barge and fled in a hidden skiff; he set off a thermal detonator as he left,
ensuring the destruction of the crimelord. All of Fortuna's planned crumbled to dust, though, following Jabba's death. He returned to the
palace, only to be overcome by the B'omarr monks. They removed his brain from his body and placed it in a nutrient jar, allowing
Fortuna to forever contemplate his actions. He continued to monitor many of his secret accounts, and kept alive the hope that he and
Nat would be rescued and placed into cloned Twi'lek bodies. Eventually, Bib Fortuna’s brain walker was captured by Firith Olan, who
hoped to wring information on Jabba’s criminal empire for his own use. Fortuna bided his time, until Firith Olan was injured by Marl
Semtin at Eidolon Base. Fortuna managed to drag Olan’s body back to Jabba’s palace, where he had the B’omarr monks swap their
brains. Fortuna then went into seclusion, gathering his strength to make a future bid for power. Bib Fortuna was portrayed in Star Wars:
Return of the Jedi by Michael Carter, and by Alan Ruscoe in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. (ROTJ, TJP, KT, XWBT,

Bibble, Sio
this man was the Governor of the planet Naboo, at the time when Queen Amidala was elected. During her campaign against King
Veruna, Sio Bibble was one of Amidala’s chief detractors. However, as he listened to the young speak, he quickly came to realize that
she was exactly what the planet needed in a leader. He soon switched camps, growing more and more loyal to Amidala and her plans.
He was a courageous man who believed in Amidala’s abilities, and supported her election. When the Trade Federation blockaded their
world and Amidala traveled to Coruscant to plead their case to the Senate, Bibble remained behind to hold of the Neimoidians. He
willfully resisted their attempts to force him to ratify a treaty that would legitimize the invasion, and maintained the planet’s sovereignity
until Amidala could return. Once rejoined, Bibble worked with Amidala and the Jedi Knights to capture Nute Gunray and force the
Federation to withdraw. Sio Bibble was portrayed by Oliver Ford Davies in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. (SW1, JQA)

by Durga, and eventually discovered the toxin X-1 concentrated in Aruk’s brain. (RD)
Bier
this miner worked for the Offworld Mining Company on Bandomeer. He was part of the group of miners who worked the deep waters of
the Great Sea of Bandomeer. Bier was one of the first casualties attributed to the presence of ionite in the planet’s crust. After diving
into an area of ionite ore, the instruments on his aquasuit stopped working. Bier was unable to accurately gauge the suit’s operations,
and died when he ran out of breathable air. (DR)
Big Bunji
a minor criminal, Big Bunji was a lavender-hued humanoid with a wide body and a huge head. His eyes were like saucers, and his hair
resembled a slate-colored bird's nest. His large ears were pink in coloration, and looked like wings. once hired Han Solo and
Chewbacca to run chak-root to Gaurick, agreeing to pay for all their expenses during the contract. Han and Chewie made a number of
runs to Gaurick, each one more difficult because the local religious leaders deemed chak-root an illegal substance. One run turned
disastrous for them, as the planet's fleet severely damaged the Millennium Falcon as it tried to escape. Han was also forced to dump
the load of chak-root he was carrying to get away. Based on the promise Big Bunji made, Han and Chewie had repairs done on the
Falcon, and added them to Big Bunji's account. However, they son received a bill from Big Bunji for the chak-root and the repairs to the
Falcon. Han's temper flared up, and he strafed Big Bunji's pressure dome with laser bolts, eliminating its atmosphere and causing
innumerable amounts of damage. Big Bunji later had his assistant, Squeak, approach Han about a job at the Mos Eisley spaceport,
claiming no hard feelings remained between them. However, Han had already taken on Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Big Bunji
laid low during the Galactic Civil War, eventually setting up shop near Ord Mantell. After the initial phases of construction were
completed on the Jubilee Wheel space station, Big Bunji moved his operation there. He went by the pseudonym of "Boss B" to maintain
relative anonymity. Big Bunji and most of his organization managed to escape the Yuuzhan Vong attack on the station, making their
way planetside to regroup. (SWR, HSE, CSA, HT)
Big Gizz
known as the Gizman, this hulking humanoid stands over 2.5 meters in height, and was the captain of Jabba the Hutt's swoop gang on
Tatooine. He led his swoop gang, with Jix in tow, to take out Luke Skywalker in a dangerous swoop race through Beggar's Canyon. Big
Gizz had long, shaggy hair and a well-muscled physique. He had large, pointed ears and a toothy maw. He was injured in the swoop
chase when Dash Rendar arrived to help Luke, and tried to get out of Beggar's Canyon with Jix. However, Gizz knew too much about
Jix's past, and so Jix killed him before they could return to Jabba's palace. Big Gizz’s body was found by the B’omarr monks that lived
in Jabba’s palace, and was reanimated. The fatal wound that killed Gizz was repaired, and a thick metal plate was installed to cover the
hole in his skull. It continually picked up stray communications signals. After being reunited with Spiker, they set off to locate Jabba’s
hidden trove of weapons on board the escape ship Spirit of Jabba. They hoped to become pirates on their own. Big Gizz’s plate picked
up comm signals from Gorga the Hutt, who had come to Tatooine to hear Jabba’s will and had been left out of the major inheritance.
Gorga hoped to recover some of Jabba’s Mendacian funeral urns, but stumbled upon the ship first. They managed to steal the ship
before Gorga could obtain it, but failed to override the ship’s security system. The interactive tape took control, venting atmosphere and
locking out user control. Just when they thought they were doomed, the Nemphas tried to intercept them. They were forced to crash-
land the ship outside of Mos Eisley in order to escape Gorga the Hutt’s minions. Spiker and Gizz survived, and made their way back to
civilization. (SEC, SSE, TJT)

Bilanaka
a low-cultured, sentient races subjugated by House Vandron and made to work the breeding farms on Karfeddion. (COJ)
Bilar
a short, pudgy alien race with long arms, short legs, and no hair, the Bilars look like bald teddy bears with frozen smiles. The ears of a
Bilar are quite large, and are capable of hearing in infrasonic and ultrasonic wavelengths. The ears can be swivels in different
directions, allowing the Bilars to use them with great efficiency. Their eyes are large and black, and can gather light in the darkest of
nights. However, they are not a dominating race, and have survived more vicious forms of life on their homeworld of Mima II by staying
in large groups for safety. This behavior soon became part of their genetic makeup, and they have evolved the need for a group mind in
order to function. On their own, single Bilars are dumb animals. Together, they form claqas (group minds) in which the overall
intelligence of the claqa doubles with each additional Bilar mind. The average number of Bilars in a sentient claqa is four, while a genius
claqa has at least seven Bilars. There is a single instance of a 10-Bilar claqa which became the entity known as Unni Yerudi. (GG4)

Billey
a smuggling overlord and contemporary of Talon Kaarde, Billey ran much of the black market bacta on Coruscant shortly after the
planet was liberated from Ysanne Isard. He was something of a legend among smugglers, surviving in the profession for more than
sixty years. He believed that he was his own good-luck charm, since he seemed to be able to escape from any possible situation. His
luck lasted a few years, until he was injured in a botched spice run. He was imprisoned at Goshyn, where he refused cybernetic
replacements for his most-damaged parts. When Talon Karrde suggested the smugglers' alliance, Billey spent much of life in a
repulsorchair in order to get around. It was believed that Billey was from Corellia, but he has never revealed his origins. (TLC, BW,

Bimmiel
1) this was the name of the leader of the Imperial survey team which discovered the MZX33291 System. (DTO)
2) this world was the fifth planet from the sun which centered the MZX33291 system. Originally discovered by Imperial scouts, Bimmiel
was thought to be a temperate world of grassy plains and cool deserts. However, it was later learned that the Imperials had first landed
on the planet during its closest inbound pass to the sun. An xenoarcheology expedition funded by the University of Agamar learned that
Bimmiel had an elongated, elliptical orbit which brought the planet well away from its sun at its furthest path, plunging the planet into a
deep winter. They named the planet after the leader of the Imperial survey team which first found it. The xenoarch team had been
studying the relationships between the slashrats and the shwpi when they discovered the fifty-year-old remains of Mongei Shai, a
Yuuzhan Vong warrior killed on the planet five decades earlier, indicating that the Vong had been able to break through the hyperspace
distrubance at the edge of the galaxy long before they actually attacked Belkadan and Helska. The students also discovered that the
planet's magnetic field shifted on a regular basis, making any static map of the world obsolete in twenty to fifty years. (DTO)

the top. He has dark eyes with pink pupils. (SME)
Bin-Garda-Zon
this Cerean was a rogue and a pirate, easily distinguished by his lack of two fingers on his left hand. Instead of raiding the spacelanes
of his home system, though, Bin kept to his homeworld and raided the villages of his compatriots. Among the treasures Bin hoped to
steal were male Cerean children and well over 100 wives, in the hope that his band would continue to grow in influence and power. Bin
and his band of female pirates held the small villages of Cerea under his control for more than two decades, until Ki-Adi-Mundi returned
to his homeworld after completing his early training as a Jedi Knight. Ki had been charged with eliminating the threat of Bin-Garda-Zon,
but returned home to find him a vindictive old man who had been bested in the khana by one of the younger woman of his band. When
the younger generation of pirates decided to submit to Ki’s laws after their leader was bested by Ki himself, Bin furiously refused to let
go of his control. He swore at the young Jedi, but was unable to sway his former band and was disgraced. (PTR)
Binarian Sabercat
this huge predator is native to the planet Binaros. Resembling an eight-legged lion, the sabercat has two large fangs studding its upper
jaw. These cats also have a long tail which is tipped by a bony nodule which plays parts in defense and mating. Their fur is tan in color,
and is dotted by greenish spots which camouflage it from prey. (KO)
Binaros
this planet was located in a system of young worlds was located in the Kathol Outback. The surface of Binaros was covered with dense
forests that supported an incredible variety of flora and fauna, although no sentient life has evolved on the planet yet. The average day
on Binaros lasts 32 standard hours, and the planet's year encompasses 110 local days. Binaros was the site of a small cult which
worshipped a hermit-like deity. The small colony established by the cultists was eradicated by disease, but their single temple remained
intact. Imperial forces took control of the temple, using it as a research base dedicated to producing biochemical weapons. When Moff
Sarne was forced to flee Kal'Shebbol, the base was abandonded. (KO)

Binder
this Interdictor-class cruiser was part of the fleet commanded by Prince-Admiral Krennel. He used it to trap Admiral Ackbar's fleet near
Ciutric, during the New Repiblic's attempt to liberate the planet. However, as soon as Captain Phulik fired up the gravity well projectors,
Ackbar implemented the Thrawn Pincer. The gravity shadows created by the Binder helped drag the Selonian Fire and the Corsuca
Fire out of hyperspace behind Krennel's fleet, and the two Republic ships quickly dispatched the Reckoning. Before they could be
destroyed, the crew of the Binder surrendered to the New Republic fleet. (IR)

done primarily by avian races, but is considered a revolting display when performed by humans. Binx was the only known human
performer at the time. (SWJ9)
Bio-cap
this emergency medical device was designed to assist field doctors who dealt with severed limbs. The bio-cap was placed over the
remaining stump, keeping flesh and bone alive until a bionic prosthesis could be attached. (SWJ9)
Bio-energy Array
this prototype biological weapon was developed by the Qektoth Confederation. Like many of their other designs, the bio-energy array
has the ability to pass through conventional shields to attack the target below. The weapon discharges a blue, lightning-like tangle of
energy at its target, much like the pulse from an ion cannon. However, the weapon requires so much power to operate that it effectively
drains the starship of power. Shields and life support suffer until the weapon can be recharged. (KO)
Bio-hound
this Imperial target tracking construct is the lowest form of cyborg created. The bio-hound is a malleable blob of organic material which
can change shape as the environment dictates. Impregnated in the flesh of the bio-hound are stimuli receptors which send data to a
bio-comp interface. A bio-hound is “programmed” by providing it with a genetic clue from the intended target: skin cells and hair are the
most common. The bio-hound is then let loose on the planet where the target exists, and it begins testing the environment for signs of
the target. The bio-hound is semi-intelligent, and can change shape or solve simple puzzles to maintain its search. Once it finds its
target, the bio-hound “tags” the target with a clear, odorless liquid tracer that can be easily detected by Imperial agents. Some bio-
hounds are equipped with acidic poisons in place of the tracer liquid, making them deviously simple assassins. (CFG)
Bio-lense
this synthetic material is used to cover and color the iris of a humanoid eye. They can be manufactured to exactly conform to the shape
of the iris and pupil, and are used by spies and undercover agents to disguise their true eye color and shape. (RD)
Bio-plasmatic Gel
developed by the scientists of the Qektoth Confederacy, this substance was a highly corrosive acid blended with a sticky gel. When
launched in torpedo casings against a starship, the casing exploded and sprayed the gel all over the target's hull. The gel stuck to the
hull, which the acidic corrosive began to eat through the metal plating. Unless removed, the gel eventually ate through the hull and
breached the ship. The gel lost strength over a short period of time, and could be burned off the hull during passage through an
atmosphere. (KR)
Bioflesh
the synthetic flesh used to cover bionic prosthetics. (TME)
Biogears Unlimited
this bioengineering company, bankrolled by the Empire, produced the first bio-hounds for Imperial use. (CFG)

Birdlizard
a term used to describe the Ishi Tib race. (ROTJN)
Birdloe
this Imperial Lieutenant was one of the highly-skilled stormtroopers working for Captain Sodarra during the search for Darth Vader's
body, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. It was later revealed that Birdloe was also a spy, working for Governor Vellam. Birdloe tried to
waylay Sodarra's plans to return Vader to Coruscant when they landed on Shador. There, Birdloe shot Taslo Deville and tried to kill
Sodarra in the process. When he was unable to do so, Birdloe fled the scene. (SL)

an Imperial freighter under the protection of the shuttle Krayt near Bonadan. It was attacked and destroyed by Alliance starfighters.
(XW)
Birket
this Imperial Security Bureau agent spent much of his career trying to track down Platt Okeefe. He once ran across the bounty hunter
Boddu Bocck, and his assistant was killed when one of Bocck's poison-tipped darts pierced her heart. Bocck claimed the shot was an
accidental discharge, but Birket never forgot or forgave the bounty hunter. However, when his own resources failed to ensnare Platt,
Birket turned to Boddu Bocck and employed him to bring down Okeefe. He used the fact that Darrik had stowed away on the Last
Chance as a reason for the bounty, claiming Platt kidnapped him. Birket also requried that Bocck bring in Tru'eb Cholakk, and all three
needed to be alive. Bocck managed to capture Tru'eb on Tatooine, but Platt and Darrik managed to rescue her partner and get off the
planet. They captured Birket in the escape from Tatooine, and Tru'eb eventually sold him into slavery. (IDC)

Bishop of War
once the leader of the warrior caste of Sedrians which protected the Golden Sun, the Bishop of War became the nominal leader of the
Sedrians after the Empire was driven from Sedri. The position was nearly made obsolete after the break-up of the Golden Sun, when
many Sedrians believed the Golden Sun had died and would never return. (SSR)
Bissillirus
Imperial Commander Resner believed that the system surrounding this star, located in Trax Sector, was the perfect place for the
Empire to establish a supply depot, during his hunt for the Alliance forces in the sector. The system was discovered some 200 years
before the Battle of Yavin by a group of Old Republic scout whose hyperdrive cut out in the middle of nowhere. The scouts were led by
Arnoll Draenell, who mapped and named each of the five planets which orbited the star. When the Alliance discovered Governor
Bursthed's plans to build a huge Imperial resupply station just outside the system, the Alliance sent out a team to disrupt its
construction. Any large-scale Imperial presence in the system would have disrupted the flow of agricultural foodstuffs to the Alliance
from Draenell's Point. (GMK)
Bissillirus Blasters
this Imperial squadron was part of the ground forces on Draenell's Point, during the construction of the Bissillirus Resupply Base,
shortly after the Battle of Yavin. (GMK)
Bist
a domestic farm animal raised by the Togorians for food. (GG4, TPS)
Biter
this huge Yuuzhan Vong bio-creation was developed to follow behind a Beater, and literally consumed the rubble created by the Beater
and turned it into a waste product that could be consumed by other creatures and turned into energy. In many cases, the Biter rode on
the back of the Beater, to ensure that it had a ready supply of raw material. The Biter would use its powerful pincers to hold onto the
Beater, while the larger creature thrashed about destroying things. The mouth of the Biter was surrounded by dozens of thick tentacles,
which it used to draw rubble into its mouth to consume. (BP)
Biteworm
this species of creature is predominantly nocturnal, and generally hunts from the shadows. (PTR)
Bith
the Bith are a race of pale-skinned aliens with large skulls and long, splayed fingers. Their ancestral orgins are hard to discern, because
their bodies contain no trace of anything but Bith information. They have evolved into a race which excels in abstract thinking, although
they lack certain instinctual emotions like fear and passion. Their huge eyes lack eyelids because they have evolved past the need for
sleep, and allow them to see in minute detail. The thumb and little fingers on each hand are opposable, and their mechanical abilities
are known throughout the galaxy. They are native to the planet Clak'dor VII in the Mayagil system. They quickly developed advanced
technologies, among them the use of deadly chemicals for warfare. A planet-wide toxicological war between the cities of Nozho and
Weogar - based on the disputed patent rights to a new stardrive - destroyed the once-beautiful planet, and left the Bith the choice of
remaining bound there or expanding to the stars. Immediate survivors were formed to build hermetically-sealed cities, although they
quickly realized that it would better preserve their race to travel among the stars. Bith mating is a less than emotional experience, as the
Bith race has lost the ability to procreate sexually. Instead, they bring genetic material to a Computer Mating Service for analysis
against prospective mates. Bith children are created from genetic material from two parents, which is combined, fertilized, and
incubated for a year. (SW, SCRE, GG4)
Bith Street

a Mistryl code phrase. (TME)
Bitthaevrian
this ancient species of warriors was native to the planet Guiteica, located in the Kadok Regions of the galaxy. They were a physically
formidable race, with muscular bodies covered with a tough, leathery hide. The joints of their elbows and knees were studded with
sharp quills, which quickly regenerate if broken off or lost in combat. Their upper jaw is studded with a row six serrated teeth, and it
completely overhangs the lower jaw, giving the Bitthaevrian the appearance of a deadly shark. Each member of their warrior society
had three names: the season they were born in, their mother's family name, and their own personal name. Males always took their

BK-4
this BK-series protocol droid was given to a prominent Core World dictator by Emperor Palpatine. The dictator used BK-4 extensively,
but the doid's proximity to confidential information meant that its memory was continually wiped clean. The dictator added some
additional programming to BK-4's central system, including the necessary skills for planetary management. When the dictator found out
that Palpatine was about to replace him, he fled his planet and sought refuge on Monor II. Agapos the Eighth helped the man escape
Imperial notice, and the dictator gave BK-4 to the ruler as a show of his appreciation. BK-4 was passed down to Agapos the Ninth when

almost unparalleled in the animal kingdom. It made breeding them in captivity very difficult unless both mates were captured. They were
efficient pack hunters, with the females doing the actual hunting while the males protected their territories. Over time, greedy
businessbeings and unscrupulous entrepreneurs took large portions of the bha'lir population as pets or guardian animals, and the

Black Ice
a Field Secured Container Vessel, the Black Ice was part of replenishment fleet DK-209 during the Galactic Civil War. The Alliance
discovered that it was used to transport huge quantities of starship fuels cells to shipyards in and around Mortex Sector. The Alliance
launched bold attempt to steal the ship and its fuel supply after the loss of a refinery in the Choah Belt shortly after the Battle of Yavin.
In its entirety, the Black Ice measured some 7,800 meters in length, from end to end. In between the two engine pods, the Black Ice
was formed from nine individual doublefield spheres. After defeating Skolos and the ship's own systems, the agents succeeded in
taking control of the ship. However, the Empire had secretly programmed the ship to send out an SOS beacon upon emerging from
hyperspace, and Imperial forces followed the Black Ice to the Alliance base on Fangol. The Empire attacked with a torpedo sphere, but
the Alliance countered by ramming the sphere with the emptied Black Ice. The resulting destruction wiped out the torpedo sphere and
much of the Black Ice, but the Alliance was given time to evacuate Fangol. Note that the Black Ice module claims the ship was
designed and manufactured by Rendili StarDrive, but the Imperial Sourcebook claims that Loronar developed it.. (BI, ISB)

bounty was placed for its return by Rusha, the diplomatic ambassador of Eckless. Rusha knew that the stone had been stolen by Hahz
Fallone,and pursued him to Chazwa. It was later revealed that the Sphere held the coordinates of the planet Eckless, and was
important because Fallone had removed the planet from most navigational databases in order to preserve its secrets for himself. In

begins discoloring the victim's eyes. The discoloration resolves itself into a starfield pattern, and the individual strains reveal individual
patterns. Each of the patterns, however, is a star-map which showed the location of an Alliance base. Imperial forces were instructed to
watch for outbreaks of the disease, then round up the victims and read the star-maps in their eyes. Thus, attacks could be made on
Alliance bases without open communication of the next target. Luke Skywalker contracted Bledsoe's on Tatooine, and was taken into
custody. He and Anduvil managed to escape from Doctor Kaaldar's laboratory and warn the Alliance about the use of Bledsoe's.

this bioweapon was developed by the Yuuzahan Vong, and was based on the original coomb spore virus. The bo'tous was designed to
be carried in a host for its gestation period, then expelled in several breaths. Nom Anor had planned to destroy the Jedi Knights by
having the priestess Elan pose as a hostage so that she could gain audience with the Jedi. Elan allowed a colony of the spores to be
implanted in her chest. When they reached maturing, she could expel them in four controlled breaths. The bo'tous was much more
virulent than the coomb spore, killing both Yuuzhan Vong and humans in mere minutes. The bo'tous grew rapidly in the presence of
oxygen. Also, as the spores consumed their victims, they produced offspring in the form of infected mites. These flying mites would
then attempt to find a new host, thereby spreading the disease. Unfortunately, the mites only lived for a few seconds before expiring. In
the end, Elan was unable to exhale her spores in the presence of the Jedi, and instead was killed herself when she inhaled it. Elan's
familiar, Vergere, provided a form of antidote to the original coomb spore to Han Solo before she disappeared. The antidote helped
Mara Jade Skywalker return to health. (HT)

supercomputer, Blue Max. Bollux's central plastron was modified to allow Blue Max to be placed inside Bollux's body. Bollux's name
was given as a reminder of the headaches involved in maintaining him. Bollux was nearly destroyed by a laser bolt which hit him at
Stars' End, but was repaired by Jessa's team and given a new carcass. He, along with Blue Max, decided that he wanted to see the
galaxy, and asked Han Solo to accept them as a ship's helpers. Han overrode his instinctual distrust of automatons, after witnessing
the two droids' loyalty and talent, and accepted them as crewmembers. They proved invaluable a number of times, helping to
incapacitate Zlarb and his thugs on Lur. They were also able to communicate with the Millennium Falcon, and helped to keep it

Bolt Squadron
captained by Tyresi Gurtt, Bold Squadron was the premier flight group of the Eyttyrmin Batiiv Survivors. (IJ)
Bolt-thrower
this primitive weapon is similar to a Wookiee bowcaster in many ways. It uses a crossbow-like structure to launch a thick cylinder into
flight at a target. While it has the power of a blaster in terms of stopping an enemy, the bolt-thrower was a single-shot, slow-loading
weapon. (ROE)
Bolter
this hardy plant is often used to assist in terraforming new worlds. (POT)
Bolton
this smuggler reprogrammed his DC5-1 freight droid to provide Customs officials with false manifests, relying on their trust of the
usually reliable droids. (SWJ14)
Bolvan
this man was the Captain of the Devastator, during the period in which Darth Vader was forced to exterminate a quarter of a million
Falleen in order to prevent a widespread plague. Bolvan disagreed with Vader's plan to bombard the failed laboratory with turbolaser
fire, arguing that a more complete assault would be required. Vader wishe the Falleen to remain alive, and ordered Lieutenant Hija to
fire on the lab. (SESB)
Bom Vimdin
this male Advosze despises other members of his own species. He was pessimistic and territorial, working as a solo smuggler for
corrupt officials. He was in the Mos Eisley cantina when Ben Kenobi and Luke Skywalker booked passage to Alderaan on the
Millennium Falcon. Following the Battle of Endor, he was apprehended by agents of the New Republic while transporting Imperial
agents back to Imperial space. (CCG2, WBC)

one of the two Victory-class Star Destroyers which were deployed to eradicate the Eyttyrmin Batiiv pirates. (SWSB)
Bombard Squadron
an Imperial Navy division consisting of two torpedo spheres, a skirmish line of starships, and a line of pursuit ships. In total, up to 28
ships make up a Bombard Squadron. They were assigned to planets which had successfully overcome Imperial control, and had a
strong military presence. The Bombard Squadron would then lay siege to the world, overtaking the rebellious inhabitants more quickly
than a prolonged ground assault. (ISB)
Bombarde
this game of chance was developed aboard the luxury gambling ship Cal Ambre. Each game of Bombarde involved shooting a captured
asteroid at the large planetoid Rove, using the Cal Ambre's mass drive weapon. The moon was electronically overlayed with a gridowkr
pattern, and the asteroids were fired at a random location on the grid. Bets were placed on the exact location of the impact on Rove,
and odds were historically updated with each round of play. (CRO)
Bombassa, Crev
this vicious Corellian crimelord ran much of the illegal operations in the farther reaches of Kathol Sector from a base on Pembric II.
Despite his tendancy toward violence, Bombassa was nevertheless quite cultured. A short, pudgy man with thin limbs and bulging eyes,
he surrounded himself with bodyguards while paying much of the Pembric Security Legionnaire force from his own coffers. During their
search for Jorj Car'das, Lando Calrissian and Mara Jade managed to foil an assassination attempt on Bombassa's life. They refused
direct repayment, instead deferring the reward to Talon Kaarde. Kaarde later used it to secure passage to Exocron during his own
search for Car'das. After the New Republic and the Imperial Remnant signed their peace treaty, Bombassa went to work for the Hutts’
overseeing operation in the Tynnani and Bothawui systems. Despite his affiliations with the Hutts, Bombassa shared information about
the Yuuzhan Vong’s plans for Tynna and Bothawui with Talon Karrde. He claimed to be simply “looking out for number one,” but asked
Karrde to make sure that the New Republic knew that he was supporting their efforts. (VOF, JE)
Bomlas
this Ychthytonian smuggler tended bar on Skip 1, in the Smuggler's Run. He has lost one of his arms in a particularly savage sabacc
match, and declined a prosthetic replacement. Even still, Han Solo considered his one of the fastest bartenders he ever saw. There is a
caret over the 'o' in Bomlas' name. (TNR)
Bomodon
an alien race. (TME)
Bonadan
primary planet in the Bonadan System, in the Corporate Sector, its natural resources were systematically drained by the Corporate
Sector Authority. Its once-beautiful landscape is now scroched and barren from years of strip-mining, pollution, and mismanagement. It
is one of the Authority's most prominent factory worlds, and has ten spaceports to effectively move its resources off-planet. A large
Security Police force is stationed there, to keep an eye on the incredibly dense population. Weapons are not allowed on the planet, and
newcomers must be thoroughly scanned before landing. An Authority Merchant Marine academy is based there. Zlarb was supposed to
deliver his Lurian slaves to the planet. It was on Bonadan that Shug Ninx recovered a mile-long section of the first Death Star prototype,
which he later used in his repair facility on Nar Shaddaa. Bonadan is also the site of an Alderaanian embassy, one of two such
embassies recognized by the New Republic. The other is located on Coruscant. (HSR, DE1, DE2, XW, SOL)

Bonadon
his small corporation produced a number of tractor beam generators for light duty aboard freighters and independent transports. (PP)
Bonaka Nueno
this city, located on the planet Intuci, was razed by Sonopo Bomoor. Most of its inhabitants were killed in the attack, in a mass
execution in Bonaka Square. Kosh Kurp was a native of the city, and was kept alive by Bomoor in order that he could serve as a living
witness to Bomoor's power and greatness. Kurp never forgot, and searched for Bomoor for the rest of his life. (JTH)
Bond-wife
this is the name used to describe the first wife of a Cerean male. The ratio of Cerean males to females it one to twenty, so in addition to
the bond-wife many Cerean males take several honor-wives. The relationship between the bond-wife and the honor-wives is often
strained, especially when it comes to the bearing of children. (PTR)

Bonestar Pirates
this group of Corellian rogues was once led by Loka Hask. During this time, they were pursued by the Corellian Security forces for
several crimes. An interstellar chase resulted in the pirates landing on Gus Treta to create a diversion. The diversion involved the
destruction of a fuel depot, owned by the Antilles family. The devastation, caused when the pirates lifted off while still coupled to the fuel
dispensers, destroyed the Antilles' depot and killed Jagged and Zena Antilles. Wedge Antilles was safely off the station when the
"accident" occurred. He and Booster Terrik pursued the pirates, destroying their ship and leaving them for dead. (XWPA)
Boneworm
this creature lives on the planet Necropolis, where it feeds on the bone marrow of dead bodies. The boneworms will also feed on a
living being's bone marrow, if the being remains still too long. Doctor Evazan discovered that the slime of the boneworm was the
missing ingredient to his own reanimation serum, and allowed him to bring recently-dead bodies back to life as zombies. Once a body
was injected with the serum and interred in the Necropolis cemetary, the boneworms would begin eating at them. When the serum
came into contact with their slime, the body was reanimated when the bones are drained of marrow by the boneworm and backfilled
with the serum which is in the body's veins. (GOF2)
Bongo
this is the Gungan name for a small submersible vehicle. The Gungans built several forms of bongo subs for travelling beneath the
surface of the planet Naboo, out of site of the native human population. Each bongo resembles an ocean creature, primarily squid and
skates. The passenger and cargo compartments are sealed from the surrounding water by small force fields, and the controls are fairly
standard. The bongo sub is propelled by a grouping of long, tentacle-like devices known as electromotive tentacles which hang behind
the bongo and rotate, providing propulsion Most personal-use bongos are of the tribubble configuration, measuring about 15 meters in
length, including the drive tail, and can reach speeds of 85 kilometers per hour. They have seating for three, which includes the pilot
and two passengers. Up to 600 kilograms of cargo can be stored in two modules, and an escape pod is often inlcuded for use in case
of emergency. (SW1, IG1, E1A9)
Bongu
this Huttese term is the word for “shoulder.” (IS1)
Bonion
the planetary governor of the planet Obinipor. (WS)
Bonn, Janus
this Imperial Captain was a native of the planet Corulag, and the son of a wealthy Imperial noble. He attended the best schools, and
volunteered for service to the Empire immediately upon graduation. He rose through the ranks until he was named as an assistant to
Darth Vader himself. Bonn was assigned by Darth Vader to watch over the remains of the planet Alderaan, in hopes of capturing
sympathetic members of the Alliance as part of Operation Yavin Kill Two. When Vader began circulating rumors that the Royal Palace
of Alderaan had been preserved in the asteroid field of Alderaan's remains, Bonn was ordered to pay special attention for the presence
of Leia Organa. Unfortunately for Vader and Bonn, the primary rumors about the existence of Asteroid 7785 were intercepted before
they reached Leia Organa. A team of Alliance agents on the Ithorian herdship Bazaar heard them first and decided to investigate.
Bonn's forces managed to corner them, but the Alliance fought off Bonn's troopers and managed to recover the Another Chance before
it fell into Imperial hands. (GA)
Bonnie
this petite female was employed by TransGalMeg Industries on Narg, as a member of their Personal Satisfaction Division. She had long
black hair. (TA)
Boog
this grumpy near-human served as the co-pilot of the Port-Esta Queen, until she carried Abal Karda to Star Station 12. Boba Fett
tracked Karda to the Port-Esta Queen and tried to obtain information on Karda's whereabouts. When Boog tried to drop a crate of
kneebs on Fett, Fett simply broke the fall and escaped to shoot Boog dead. His Captain, a bald alien with spots on his head and long,
droopy mustaches, told Fett everything before being spared by the bounty hunter. (EOE)
Books of Massassi
a series of tablets recovered from a collapsed underground passage by the Jedi students on Yavin 4 following the Battle of Endor.
Streen took the task of deciphering them, and had completed sixteen of them when Luke Skywalker left for Lucazec. The tablets
revealed that the Massassi measured themselves against the natural world and found themselves lacking. They had achieved
domination of the jungle moon, but saw that they were insignificant when compared to the rest of the galaxy. Thus, they continued to
strive for perfection, and fell victim to the Dark Side of the Force. (BTS)
Bookchip
a datachip on which is recorded a story or volume. (AS)
Boom
this diminutive being was recruited as a crewmember of the FarStar by Krudar. However, Boom's continual experimentation with fire -
and the destructive results of those experiments - soon began to grate on the crew's collective nerve. (KR)
Boonda
this Hutt was the son of Groodo the Hutt. Boonda had once applied to the Corulag Academy, but had not been chosen to attend.
Groodo had been furious, and attempted to make the Academy pay. However, Groodo was intercepted by Darth Maul before he could
destroy the Academy, and the two Hutts fled. After reaching maturity and going into business for himself, Boonda became known as
one of the rare individuals that actually ran a legitimate business. This "failing" led him to be manipulated by Movo Brattakin, who
claimed he was dealing in droids who had been deliberately sabotaged with program traps. Brattakin, working through B-9D7, sent a
cargo of droids to Boonda. Among the cargo were R2-D2 and C-3PO. B-9D7 also lured Olag Greck and Jace Forno to Boonda's moon,
and when all were together, Brattakin's plan was launched. He had delivered two criminals into the hands of an honest Hutt, and
Boonda took great pleasure in watching them bargain for their lives. He allowed R2-D2 and C-3PO to escape. (DRO)
Boonta
a planet known for its organized speeder races, it is also the site of an orbiting scrap yard. Sise Fromm employed Boba Fett to eliminate
Thall Joben during a race there, but the attempt was foiled when a bomb - planted by Fromm's gang - was exploded near Fett's
speeder. Fett, angry that he had missed a chance to kill Joben, took Fromm and his gang hostage and turned them over to Jabba the
Hutt. (DCAR, EGC)

Boorn, Keog
an Imperial scout, Boorn surveyed most of the Sluis Sector. He started to survey the planet Dagobah, and nearly discovered the
location of the beckon call left possibly there by some unknown Dark Jedi (later discovered by Luke Skywalker). However, the ancient
Jedi Master Yoda scared him away, much the same way Obi-Wan Kenobi frightened the Tusken Raiders away from Luke Skywalker on
Tatooine. (HTSB)
Bootlegger's Slide
this was the name of a specialized obstacle used in swoopchasing. The Slide was an open-air, anti-gravity channel which rendered all
riders weightless and without speed limits. The lack of gravity pulled a swoop along at nearly twice its normal speed, and riders were
forced to use maneuvering jets in order to navigate the Slide. A safety rail was installed in every Slide channel, allowing riders who
were out of control to bump along and regain their bearings without being seriously injured. (BSS)
Booty Full
this pirate ship was a modified bulk cruiser, and was part of the fleet which was assembled under Leonia Tavira, several years after the
death of Grand Admiral Thrawn. It attempted to waylay the luxury liner Glitterstar, but was subdued by Rogue Squadron. (IJ)

with the Ulizra and the Great Structure. The boqeri lasted twelve Nazzri years. (TOJC)
Bora Boru
a Bosph smuggler operating in the Outer Rim during the Galactic Civil War. (SWJ13)
Boras
1) this species of incredibly large plant was native to the planet Zonama Sekot. Boras could grow to be six hundred meters tall, with
diameters well over 10 meters at their base. The foliage of the boras formed an immense canopy over the planet, colored with greens
and dotted with gold, blue, purple, and red. Despite their size and shape, most xenobotanists did not classify the boras as a tree. The
original colonists, however, could only liken them to trees, and used the Ferroan word boras - which meant tree - to describe them. The
balloon-like leaves of the boras were used by the colonists as airsacs, which were used to create floating airships. The lifecycle of hte
boras was the model after which the creation of Sekotan starships was developed. The ancient boras drop seeds to the ground, which
feed on the dead limbs the boras tree drops to the tampasi floor. Then, during periods of intense thunderstorms, the boras channel raw
lightning through their branches to the seeds on the ground, filling them with energy and cracking them open in a process known as
forging. Once the seeds are opened, special leaves on the boras tree shape the seeds into future boras trees in a process known as
annealing. In this way, no two boras trees are alike. The original Magister of the planet trained the boras to move their dense canopies
over the organic factories of the Jentari, blocking the creation process from prying eyes. (RP)
2) this was the Ferroan word for 'tree.' (RP)
Borbor Crisk
this being was part of Grand Admiral Thrawn's trail into Black Sun's operations on Corellia. He was known to the law enforcement
agencies as a small-time criminal whose interests remained within the Corellian System. Despite this description, it was known that
Crisk hoped to topple Zekka Thyne and Black Sun to gain control of the system's underworld. (TFE)
Borborygmus Gog
this evil, mad scientist once worked for the Empire. A Shi'ido, he was the lead scientist for Project Starscream, and controlled the efforts
of Doctor Evazan for much of this time. Gog was the primary developer behind the planet D'vouran, a project he began with his partner,
Mammon Hoole, about twenty years before the Battle of Yavin. They received Imperial support for the project, and moved their labs to
the planet Kiva. There, they tinkered with the ability to control life and death. When their experiments began to drain from the native
Kivans, Hoole became alarmed. Gog, however, told the Emperor that everything was OK, and ordered the continuation of the
experiments. Eventually, the experiment robbed the entire planet of Kiva of all life, including the native Kivans, and the experiment
failed. Gog blamed the failure on Hoole, and continued in secret. He was though to have died on Nespis 8, after being captured by a
dianoga living on the station, but reappeared on Kiva in hopes of capturing Hoole and maintaining control over Starscream. There, Gog
activated the biological weapon Eppon, more to save himself from the wrath of Darth Vader than anything else. After destroying Eppon,
Gog himself was executed by the wraiths of the dead Kivans, after D-V9 revealed Gog's transmission to the Emperor documenting the
destruction of Kiva. (GOF2, GOF5, GOF6)
Borcatu
this creature was a small, plated rodent which was found in a wide range of environments and locations. Their bodies were protected by
overlapping plates of hard chitin, and their feet were tipped with hard claws for digging. They were scavengers, living on anything they
could dig up. Originally native to the Serhan desert of Escabar, it is believed that borcatu were inadvertently transported off the planet
by a group of traders from the Krassh region. (COG)
Borcorash
this planet is known for the incredibly-colored sunsets which can be viewed from anywhere on the planet. The planet’s atmospheric
conditions result in an ever-shifting array of colors during sunset. (SOP)
Bordal
one of two habitable planets in the Taroon System, Bordal was invaded by the Empire just before the Battle of Hoth. Bordal and its
sister planet, Kuan, had been locked in a bitter, decades-old war, although no one remembered the exact cause. The Bordali economy
was in ruins, and the planetary government had declared martial law. The Empire, seeing an opportunity, entered the system to bring
news of Palpatine's removal of the supposed dead wood of the Old Republic. The Empire blamed the planet's economic crisis on the
Old Republic, and swayed the Bordali to join the Empire. The planet's primary inhabitants are human. (TIE)
Bordhell

Borgo Prime
Lando Calrissian sold corusca gems to a broker on this asteroid space station. Over the years, the station has collected it fair share of
murderers, thieves, and conmen. The asteroid itself is honeycombed with old mining tunnels and caves that have been long-ago
stripped of an valuable ores. This network was easily modified to accommodate a spaceport. After the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn,
an Imperial credit-laundering operation was also esablished here, providing a steady flow of funds into the waning Imperial coffers. (SA,

this bushy plant is native to the planet Bothawui, and is often used in decorative plantings. (SOP)
Borsk Fey'lya
Fey'lya, recognizable by his cream-colored fur and violet eyes, was a native of the Bothan colony world Kothlis. He joined the Alliance
shortly after the Battle of Yavin. He brought with him a large contingent of Bothans. He led the mission to steal the Death Star plans
(although this is not verified by X-Wing: Rogue Squadron), and was rewarded with a leadership position in the Alliance which grew into
a seat on the New Republic's General Council. As a councilor in the Alliance, he began playing the various representatives against
each other, in an effort to gain more and more power. After the Battle of Endor, Fey'lya's manipulations came to a head when the New
Republic - in an effort to gain some legitimacy - began to plan the retaking of Coruscant. Fey'lya set up the series of discussions and
briefings on Noquivzor, where other members of the council would feel ill-at-ease, due to the planet's dry environment. This worked in
his favor, forcing Ackbar and others to debate amongst themselves while Fey'lya entered his own opinions. Fey'lya probably would
have continued to gain power this way, but his Bothan ideals got the best of him when Grand Admiral Thrawn stepped onto the scene.
When he saw an opportunity to denounce Admiral Ackbar and gain control of the Republic's armed forces, he took it. He aligned
himself with Grand Admiral Thrawn's plans to discredit Ackbar, and was the main proponent in Ackbar's treason hearings. When the
plot against Ackbar was revealed, Fey'lya thought that his career with the Republic was finished. However, the Republic recognized
that is needed strong leaders, and pardoned him. He remained a loyal Republic supporter after that, although he never lost his uncanny
ability to turn a situation to his own advantage. To this end, he began forcing Asyr Sei'lar to abandon her relationship with Gavin
Darklighter, for he felt that it wasn't the way a proper Bothan - let alone a hero of stature almost equal to the Martyrs - should behave.
Asyr ignored him, knowing that Bothan society would have to change to meet the demands of the new galaxy. Fey'lya told her that he
himself would control that change, and told Asyr to fall into line with him. She refused, and after her "death" at Corvis Minor 5, she
began working to change society without him. The fact that Asyr's body was never recovered hurt Fey'lya's plans to make her into the
greatest of all Martyrs, and forced him to approach Booster Terrik with a request to locate a Bothan body to use in her place. Fey'lya
had no qualms about Booster's people murdering a Bothan in order to fill the need. Booster flatly refused, and beat Fey'lya with his fists
to ensure he got the message. Fey'lya was forced to return to Coruscant and rethink his plans. He later served as the chairman of the
Justice Council during Leia Organa-Solo's tenure as Chief of State. After the agreement with Admiral Pellaeon to effectively eliminate
Imperial opposition, Fey'lya was named Chief of State of the New Republic in a sweeping power-play. He led the New Republic
Advisory Council twenty years after the Battle of Bilbringi, and was in this position at the onset of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. He had
arranged for a great deal of support to be voted to Senatorial positions, and received strong backing when Leia Organa Solo pleaded
with the High Council to act against the Yuuzhan Vong forces. Fey'lya and his supporters dismissed her pleas as a poorly-disguised
way to regain political power, but he was proven wrong when the worlds of Dantooine, Bimmiel, and Garqi were overrun by the
Yuuzhan Vong. After it was revealed that he had manipulated Navy orders to avoid confrontation with the Vong, Fey'lya was forced to
concede leadership to the military in order to avoid a complete take-over of the galaxy by the Yuuzhan Vong. (HTTE, DFR, WG, SOL,
IR, VP, DTO)

Bortras
C'baoth's home world. According to Rebellion, Bortras is located in Sesswenna Sector. (DFR, REB)
Bortrek
this fair-haired human was the Captain of the Pure Sabacc. A native of the planet Algar, he was distinguished by a scar which cut
across his lips. It was Bortrek and the Pure Sabacc that intercepted C-3PO and R2-D2 when they escaped from the Death Seed plague
launched by Seti Ashgad aboard the Borealis. He made extensive modifications to R2-D2, using the small droid to assist in piloting the
Sabacc while Bortrek stole the droids. R2-D2 eventually overrode the ship’sprogramming and allowed the two droids to escape from
Bortrek’s possession. (POT)
Borvak
this clan once threatened the Bureau of Ships and Services with physical violence. BoSS, in turn, threatened to bring interstellar
commerce to a halt by deleting all known transponder data of all starships unless the planetart governments helped bring the Borvaks
down. The governments responded, and the Borvaks backed down against the sheer size of the force arrayed against them. Note that
Galaxy Guide 12 describes this family as the Nimbanese Bovark clan. (CFG, GG12)

BoShek
a human smuggler who was also in competition with Han Solo. He actually beat Solo's 12-parsec Kessel Run, but he did it without a
cargo. He took this small victory in the starship Infinity, and was returning the ship to Tatooine when he encountered Imperial Star
Destroyers deployed by Darth Vader to locate R2-D2 and C-3PO. BoShek forced the ship to land in the Dune Sea, and headed toward
Mos Eisley. He established a secret outlaw tech lab in the city. In the cantina at Mos Eisley, he discovered Chewbacca, and was
gloating to him about his new Kessel Run record when Ben Kenobi approached him about passage to Alderaan. BoShek, without a ship
of his own, since he was under the employ of the Dim-U monastery on Tatooine, referred Ben to Chewbacca. Meanwhile, BoShek tried
to rub in his new record on Han Solo, but he was forced to flee when the local government learned that he had downed the Infinity and
wanted to hold him responsible for the breach in security. He used his encounter with Ben Kenobi to pose as a street priest preaching
the good side of the Force, and after witnessing the Imperial slaughter of Het Nkik, he decided to join the Alliance. (TME, CCG)
Bosken & Bosken Company

Bosph
1) this Outer Rim planet was razed by Imperial bombardment which was rumored to be a retaliatory strike against rebellious
inhabitants. In reality, the strike was designed to eliminate the Bosphs, some of whom were sensitive to the Force. Many Bosphs
believed that the attack was a form of religious purge, and none ever discovered that Emperor Palpatine himself ordered their
destruction.The planet itself was covered with grassy plains, broken by the scars of turbolaser fire. (SWJ13)
2) the four-armed alien race native to the planet Bosph. They had a stocky, humanoid shape, although their semi-circular heads were
attached directly to their torso, without a neck. Their heads were dominated by two multi-faceted eyes and a pair of horns. Their hands
and feet each had three digits, and their skin color ranged from light brown to dark gray. They were isolationists by nature, with a deep
respect for philosophy and religion. Bosph leaders were known to have sensitivity to the Force, and could control it to some degree.
Certain Bosphs attained greatness, and were allowed to place their own personal glyphs on objects. The Bosphs maintained their
space-faring history by tattooing elaborate starmaps on their skin. After the Empire destroyed much of their homeworld, most Bosphs
simply dis-remembered the Empire and its acts, instead blaming the attack on the Yenntar. (SWJ13, AE)

Boss Nass
this Ankuran Gungan was the leader of his people during the Old Republic’s struggle with the Trade Federation. Boss Nass was well-
known among the Gungans as the individual who united the Ankuran and Otollan races. This union resulted in the dissemination of
technology and sparked trade between the two races, and led to the construction of the vast, underwater city of Otoh Gunga, created
from bubbles made of bubble wort and other well-kept secrets. He was a large Ankuran, whose immense body weight had compacted
his skeleton into a much shorter version of the normal Gungan physique. Boss Nass was prone to nervous tics, and often grumbled his
dissatisfaction by violently shaking his jowls. During the Battle of Naboo, Boss Nass tried to remain apart from the battle, leaving the
snobbish Naboo to worry about the Trade Federation armies. However, when Queen Amidala came to him in the Gungan sacred place
and kneeled before him in a show of peace and humility, he changed his mind. In Amidala, he found a Naboo leader who was willing to
shed the prejudices of the past and work toward a brighter future for both races. He supplied the vast Gungan Grand Army to assist in
Amidala’s plans to oust the Federation. The Gungans rallied around him, and despite a large loss of life, they were successful in
holding off the Federation’s droids long enough for Anakin Skywalker to destroy the Droid Control Ship, and for Amidala to capture Nute
Gunray and Rune Haako, breaking the Federation’s hold on Naboo. Boss Nass was portrayed by Brian Blessed in Star Wars: Episode I
– The Phantom Menace. (SW1, TPM, IG1)

Bossk
the son of Cradossk, the leader of the old Bounty Hunters Guild, Bossk was known in his early years as a highly-skilled hunter of
Wookiees. This was only natural, since Trandoshans measure their skills in their ability to kill Wookiees. Bossk even had his personal
ship, the Hound’s Tooth, outfitted with special cages to hold Wookiees, and tanning vats to cure their hides. Bossk, however, was never
able to make it to the top of the heap in the Guild, being stifled by both his father’s machinations and the existence of freelance hunter
Boba Fett. In nearly ever mission they both took, Fett got the upper hand and beat Bossk to the bounty. Often, Fett would then
embarrass the Trandoshan, which made Bossk’s lust for revenge even deeper. When Bobe Fett decided to join the Guild, Bossk feared
that the other hunter was there to destroy the Guild and keep everything for himself. In this belief, Bossk was very close to the truth.
However, Cradossk had noticed his son'’ growing anger, and hoped to kill him off before he did any real damage. Cradossk arranged
for Boba Fett, Bossk, and Zuckuss to recover Oph Nar Dinnid from the Shell Hutts, and hired Zuckuss to ensure Bossk’s death.
However, Zuckuss was something of a double agent, and reported Bossk’s death even as the Trandoshan returned to the Guild. Lulled
into a sense of security, Cradossk was unprepared when Bossk appeared. Being younger, stronger, and angrier, Bossk made short
work of killing and eating old Cradossk. After the breakup of the Guild, Bossk formed the Guild Reform Committee in opposition to the
True Guild. Both factions waged a hidden civil war, further reducing the ranks of bounty hunters. During this time, Bossk decided to join
Boba Fett in the search for Trhin Voss’on’t. The arrangement was short-lived, however, as both hunters tried to steal the Imperial from
the other. In the end, Bossk was embarrassed again by Fett. Bossk retired for a short time to lick his wounds, but was discovrered in
the Corellian System by Hal Horn. After killing the security officer, Bossk was caught and imprisoned by Corran Horn, but was released
by Kirtan Loor. Bossk then became part of a team that tried to capture a group of relocated Wookiees on the safeworld of Gandolo IV.
He had tracked Chewbacca there, and he assembled a group of bounty hunters to take control of the Wookiees. However, through the
intervention of Han Solo, the Wookiees were able to escape while Bossk and his fellow bounty hunters were left stranded on Gandolo
IV. Bossk eventually freed himself, and vowed to find Chewbacca again. His chance came when Vader sought out bounty hunters to
capture the Falcon. He took on two unlikely crewmembers, in the Wookiee Chenlambec and the human, Tinian I’att. The two had posed
as bounty hunters, in an attempt to draw Bossk into a trap set by Wookiees. They claimed to have information on a series of Wookiee
waystations throughout the galaxy, and that information could be found on one of them that would lead them to Solo and Chewbacca.
The ruse worked, and they were able to lure Bossk to Lomabu III. There, in brilliantly-executed series of manipulations, Bossk was
captured by Imperial forces and held on the charge of attempting to kill the Wookiees held in a labor camp there. The Imperial
Governor, Io Desnand, eventually freed the Trandoshan. Bossk and several other bounty hunters tried to intercept Boba Fett near Gall
and capture Solo's frozen form. Bossk tried to waylay Slave I in an asteroid field, but was nearly blown to bits by Fett's marksmanship.
Bossk then found work with Jabba the Hutt, as part of the swoop gang used to patrol the landing pads where other hunters brought in
Jabba’s enemies. Bossk was nearly killed by Fett again when the Hunter brought Han Solo to Jabba. It was during this time that Bossk
tried to steal the Slave I, but ended up losing it and the Hound’s Tooth to Boba Fett. Bossk did managed to take possession of the load-
shifter droid which contained the falsified record of the death of Owen and Beru lars, which was created by Kuat of Kuat, but ultimately
lost that to Fett as well. Later, Bossk failed to capture Lando Calrissian on Keyorin. He was 58 standard years old at the time. Bossk
then became involved with Zekka Thyne, who was released by the New Republic in an effort to gain information on Coruscant. Bossk
was mortally wounded in a shootout caused by Corran Horn's escape from Thyne on Coruscant, but managed to survive the wound. He
was employed by Big Bunji to harass Han Solo and Roa, during their search for Reck Desh, on the Jubilee Wheel. (ESB, MTS, EGC,

Bothan
furry, bipedal race native to the planet Bothawui and several other colony worlds, they are political and influential by nature. They are
masters of brokering information, and had a spy network that rivalled the best the Empire or the Old Republic could create. As a race,
Bothans took great pride in their clans, and it was documented that there were 608 registered clans on the Bothan Council. They joined
the Alliance shortly after the Battle of Yavin. While the Bothans generally stayed out of the main fighting, there were two instances of
Bothan exploits. The first came when they were leaked the information about the plans and data on the construction of the second
Death Star near Endor. A number of Bothans assisted a shorthanded Rogue Squadron in recovering the plans from the Suprosa, but
their lack of piloting skills got many of them killed. The plans were recovered and brought to Kothlis, where more Bothans were killed in
an Imperial raid to recover the plans. Again, the Bothans retained possession of the plans, and eventually turned them over to Mon
Mothma and the Alliance. The second came when they helped eliminate Imperial ships near New Cov. It was later revealed that the
Bothans were also involved in bringing down the planetary shields of the planet Caamas, during the early reign of Emperor Palpatine,
allowing the Empire to burn the surface of the planet to charred embers. Although the Bothans searched for several years to discover
the clans invovled, Imperial records were too well-guarded to provide any clues. Then, some fifteen years after the Battle of Endor,
records were discovered at Mount Tantiss that told of the Bothan involvement. (ROTJ, HTTE, DFR, SE, SOP, A)

Bothawui
the Bothan homeworld, Bothawui is a cosmopolitan planet which is a major hub for information trafficking. The Bothan spy network has
been decsribed as second to none, and much of the information is possesses flows through Bothawui. Note that Specter of the Past
indicates that the Bothawui system is located “millions of kilometers from anywhere.” It was here that many of the alien races of the
New Republic gathered their warships during the Caamas Incident, representing their own opinions and hoping to exact vengeance on
the Bothans involved in the destruction of Caamas. (DFR, SE, SOP, VOF)

(GG10)
Boushh
an Ubese bounty hunter, he was known as a level-headed hunter. He worked for Black Sun during the Galactic Civil War, but was
caught trying to swindle more credits out of a signed contract. He was captured by Guri and eliminated, but his geared was kept for
future use. That future use came when Leia Organa met with Guri, and was brought to Coruscant to meet with Xizor. Leia was given
the bounty hunter's clothing as a disguise for getting past the security checkpoints without being recognized as an Alliance leader.
When she escaped from Xizor's castle, she brought the gear with her, and later posed as Boushh, with Chewbacca in tow, in order to
enter Jabba's palace and rescue Han Solo. (ROTJ, TJP, SE, SESB)
Bovark
this Nimbanese clan won the right to be a prime data holder for the Bureau of Ships and Services, several centuries before the rise of
the New Order. Their training in nimbanese muhndees led them to directly challenge another data-holding family. There was an implied
threat of violence in the challenge, which brought down the wrath of the BoSS on the Bovarks and the Nimbanese. For several
centuries, no Nimbanese clan was allowed to participate as a prime data holder, and many clans lost great sums of money and power
as a result. This situation was later "repaired" by the Krovalis clan. (GG12)
Bovo Yagen
1) primary planet in the Bovo Yagen system, it was named for the former Imperial Captain Bovo Yagen. Yagen had defected from
Imperial service on Coruscant. The native Bovorians were at first wary of the new visitors, but in time came to appreciate his skills in
diplomacy and trade. The average day on the planet lasts 28 standard hours, and its year lasts 386 local days. Bovo Yagen has a
single moon. (SC, CTD)
2) the third star targetted for detonation by the Starbuster plot. New Republic records recorded one or two habitable planets in the
system. It is located near the Corellian Trade Route, but far enough away that a ship traveling to the system would need to learn the
route beforehand. (AS, SC, CTD)
Bovorian
this oddly humanoid race is native to the planet Bovo Yagen. They were a tribal species of stone-age technology when Bovo Yagen fled
to the planet, but have since adopted the spacelanes. The Bovorian natives were so glad to have him further their development that
they named all the planets in their system after members of his family. Bovorians descended from flying mammals, and retained
vestigial webs of skin between their arms as reminders of their avian ancestors. The average Bovorian is covered with white hair, and
their forms are slightly thinner and longer than a normal human form. Their faces are narrow and angular, with jutting chins and long
sideburns. Their ears resemble leathery wings, and can be extended for better hearing. Bovorians can see into the infrared spectrum as
well as the visible spectrum, and they use these abilities to actually "read" the emotions of other beings. This allowed them to deal with
other species in a very patient and friendly way. Among themselves, Bovorians speak in a language of high-pitched trills and whistles
which has been compared to the computer-based speech of the R2-series astromech droid. (CTD, AE)

Boz
1) this small, lizard-like humanoid was one of Ry-Kooda’s lackeys. Boz held a position of relative power in the Koodan’s organization,
and was constantly ordering the rest of Ry-Kooda’s employees around. It was Boz who delivered the news that Bar-Kooda had been
killed by the Hutts Gorga and Orko to Ry-Kooda. The small lizard accompanied Ry-Kooda to Skeebo, where he believed the Koodan
was killed by Boba Fett. However, Ry-Kooda emerged unscathed, and the two set off for Orkana, on Tatooine. There, Ry-Kooda was
finally killed by Boba Fett, leaving Boz without a master. The little reptiloid tried to stand up to Fett, who promptly gave him a swift kick
in the rear end. Boz’s big mouth continued to run, swearing that he would someday get his hands on the bounty hunter. (BF)

Bpfassh
a twin planet orbitting a star with the same name, Bpfassh is located in the Sluis sector. It was at one time the site of a Dark Jedi
uprising (77-74 PE), and the locals have since then been distrustful of the Jedi. The Bpfassh have since then joined the Alliance and
the New Republic. Following the death of the Emperor at Endor, Bpfassh was the site of Thrawn's first major strike against the New
Republic. It was also the site of a Noghri attack on Princess Leia. Its day is variable in length, due to the unique gravitational forces the
twin pieces exert on each other. The twin planets also have a large number of moons. (HTTE, DFR, HTSB)

machinery, as C-3PO discovered a bomb planted on Joben's speeder by Sise From. (DCAR)
BR-23 Courier
this Republic Sienar Systems courier ship was designed well before the advent of smaller, more profitable starfighters. It was a durable
ship, but was considered outdated during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Nevertheless, the Alliance used them as troop transports
during the war, and many civilian shuttle operations found them to be reliable transports. The BR-23 measured 20.7 meters in length. A
pilot and a gunner were the only crew required, and the BR-23 could carry up to 40 passengers or 75 metric tons of cargo, depending
on the interior configuration. It was armed with a pair of fire-linked, turret-mounted laser cannons. (ROE, IA)

Brak Sector
this area of the galaxy contains the planet Bacrana. (SWJ8)
Brakiss
a former student at Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy on Yavin 4, Brakiss was fairly gifted with the Force. Brakiss was stolen from his
family by the Imperial forces that occupied his homeworld, recognizing his potential for using the Force. He was reonditioned, and was
later employed as a spy, sent to determine the extend of the threat posed by the renewal of the Jedi Knights under Luke Sywalker.
When Luke sent Brakiss on an illusionary quest, Brakiss could not reconcile the Light and Dark Sides of the Force, represented by
Luke's Academy and the Empire. He fled Yavin 4, and went into hiding until he was discovered by Dolph, another of the failed students
of Skywalker's praxeum. Dolph had renamed himself Kuellar, and was developing his own scheme to take control of the galaxy. He set
up Brakiss on Telti, overseeing an automated droid construction facility. Brakiss' droids were implanted with detonators that could be
set off via a remote control help by Dolph/Kuellar. Dolph also used Brakiss as a way to lure Luke to Almania, where he planned to used
Skywalker as bait. Brakiss fled back to Telti, where he hid among his droids. In the meantime, Brakiss' mother encountered Luke on
Msst, and explained that Brakiss was waiting to kill him on Telti. The two battled on the desert moon, and Brakiss nearly turned back to
the Light Side. He failed, and returned to the droids. The secluded life among the droids was shattered when Cole Fardreamer
discovered the link between the detonation in the Senate Assembly Chamber on Coruscant and the rigged droids. He exposed Brakiss'
part in the plot, and Brakiss fled once again. He later set up the Shadow Academy in the Core Systems. He did so out of his deep belief
that the Jedi were needed to help preserve the order of the Empire, not the Republic. Brakiss looked forward to the day when the
so-called Second Imperium would overthrow the New Republic, and when his Imperial Jedi were able to defeat Luke Skywalker's Jedi.
When a reborn Emperor Palpatine began controlling the Second Imperium, Brakiss gladly bowed to his true master’s rule. However, the
Emperor’s solitary nature and lack of respect for Brakiss’ accomplishments disillusioned him. He became frustrated with the Emperor
when he arrived at the Shadow Academy, shortly before the attack on Kashyyyk. After the deaths of Vonnda and Ra and Garowyn in
the Kashyyyk jungles, Brakiss declared the mission a success because of the computer components they had stolen. He felt that the
loss of the two Nightsisters was an accepted loss. In the wake of the raid on Kashyyyk, the Shadow Academy began gearing up for an
attack on Yavin 4. Spurred on by Palpatine’s commands, Brakiss and Tamith Kai invaded the Jedi Academy’s defenses and nearly
defeated Luke’s students. However, several setbacks suffered by Tamith Kai and Brakiss’ Dark Jedi turned the battle in favor of the
Jedi, and Brakiss appealed to Palaptine for direction. He discovered, though, that there was no Palpatine. The appearance of the
Emperor was being perpetrated by four former Imperial Royal Guards. The Dark Side of the Force flooded Brakiss, and he quickly
dispatched three of the four guards. The fourth escaped the Shadow Academy, but not before setting off the station’s self-destruct

against the alien invaders. Later, Brand was given command of the Yald, in preparation for the defense of Corellia. (SOL, JE)
Brand, Empatojayos
a one-time Jedi Knight, Empatojayos was hunted down as part of Palpatine's Jedi purge. He was nearly killed by Darth Vader, and was
left for dead. He was rescued by the Ganathans, and fitted with a cyborg suit. The only organic parts of his body still functioning are his
chest and head; his limbs could not be saved. His cyborg body was therefore equipped with repulsorlifts for mobility. The suit is also
equipped with impressive life-support capabilities, and can withstand extremes of temperature and the effects of hard vacuum for an
entire year. The Ganathans, seeing that Empatojayos' knowledge of the Force gave him certain supernatural abilities, elected him to be
their king, a position he accepted. He is still the king when Han Solo and Princess Leia first discover the Ganath System, after fleeing
Boba Fett and Nar Shaddaa a second time. Recognizing the need for the Jedi to return to the galaxy, Brand leaves Ganath with Luke
Skywalker. Brand and the Jedi spent the next few months trying to stay one step ahead of the Emperor, who was trying to steal Anakin
Solo for a new body. When they cornered the Emperor on Onderon, it was Brand who intervened wen Palpatine made his move. Brand
grabbed Anakin and shielded him in the Light Side of the Force, while at the same time allowing the Emperor's spirit to enter his body.
Brand returned Anakin to Leia, then was quickly consumed by the Dark Side energies flowing through Palpatine's spirit. Both Brand and
the Emperor died on Onderon. (DE2, EE)

Brath Qella
this planet was the homeworld of the Qella and their ancestors, the Ahra Naffi. It was known to the Qella as the Homestone, or the
Place of Beginning. Orbiting the star N’oka Brath, it has a thick atmosphere, and was located near an asteroid belt. It has two natural
satellites. The planet was discovered by the Old Republic's Third General Survey, some 158 years before the Yevethan Purge. By the
time the Third General Survey team was able to return home, identify those worlds worth exploring, and return with an exploration crew,
the planet had been almost completely glaciated. The planet's ecology appeared to have been destroyed when a series of asteroids
impacted the surface. Brath Qella was forgotten by the Republic, but was later rediscovered by the Tobek, who named the world Maltha
Obex. It remained under Tobek jurisdiction until the New Republic began searching for the Teljkon vagabond. The unusual ship was
linked with the Qella due to the ship's use of the Qella genetic code as a code signal. Kroddok Stopa and Josala Krenn were
dispatched from the Obroan Institute to explore the planet for information on the Qella, but were killed in an avalanche before additional
help could arrive. The Qella kept an incredible panoramic display of the system aboard the Teljkon vagabond, in a room known as the
Reflection of Essential Infinities. The room, it was discovered, was a depiction of the Qella system as it was before it was destroyed.
This led to the discovery that one of Brath Qella’s moons had a wildly-elliptic orbit. The Qella recognized that it was bound to impact the
other moon at some point, and built the vagabond as an escape vehicle. When the cataclysm did come, the resulting debris from both
moons showered Brath Qella with asteroid-sized rocks. The planet’s ecosystem was plunged into a premature ice age, while the Qella
fled in the vagabond. When the vagabond eventually returned to Brath Qella - then called Maltha Obex by the Tobek - it began the long
process of thawing out the planet and making it habitable for the Qella once again. (BTS, SOL, TT)

than expected, and they quickly knocked out much of the Brazen's defenses. The ship was able to limp back to Derilyn for repairs, but
was later destroyed by the Alliance and the Friends of Paran. The destruction of the huge ship put the Derilyn Space Defense Platform

Bremen, Jak
this New Republic Colonel was based on Coruscant during the early years of the New Republic. A native of the planet Shiffrin, he grew
up in his father's footsteps, learning a great deal about laws and justice from Kallin Bremen. When Kallin was executed by the local
Imperial Moff during a land dispute, Jak fled the planet and ended up on Coveway. He established a life on this new world, but was
once again confronted with the atrocities of the Empire. The leadership of a COMPNOR base established near his village decided that
the base would be safer without local intervention, and had the entire village executed. Jak was off on a hunting trip when it happened,
and returned only to find that his wife and young daughter had been killed. When, by chance, the Alliance sent a team to eliminated the
base, Jak gladly offered his services as a strike team leader, showing them how to reach the garrison under cover. From that point
onward, Jak pledged himself the Alliance. He rose in rank while aboard the cruiser Starveil, and was eventually placed in charge of
security for the planet Coruscant after the planet was returned to New Republi control. During the first wave of Imperial attacks aimed at
retaking Coruscant, Bremen commandeered the Messenger and her crew to carry a fleet rendezvous location off-planet. He hoped to
get the message to the fleet quickly, so that Coruscant could be recovered. Bremen accompanied the ship's crew, Taryn Clancy and

Kallin planned a peaceful demonstration against the Imperials, but was incarcerated and executed along with his other "rebel co-
conspirators." (TTSB)

fight. They figured that Brenggar's reputation as a psychopathic killer would scare away many potential enemies and minor police
officers. Brenggar believed in reincarnation, and was convinced that he was an Imperial Captain, an Ithorian scout, and a slaver in
several of his past lives. (SWJ13)

was able to escape. Bress tried to cover up the matter, and even told Zsinj that none of the subjects had escaped. This eventually led to
his death, when Zsinj confronted Bress and Doctor Edda Gast - Tuzin Gast's niece - about the existence of Voort and the Ewok pilot,
Kettch. Zsinj handed them both a blaster, and asked that they kill each other as punishment. Doctor Gast didn't hesitate, killing Bress in

mode of operation left him with a continual debt that he was only able to pay the interest on. (GG6)
Bridin, Quarlo
this corrupt politician fled to the Mid Rim to avoid capture by the officials in several systems. He quickly assumed control of the planet
Gallienis IV, convincing the native population that he would bring the wrath of the Empire downon them if they disobeyed his decrees.
His takeover came just after the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn, and coincidence allowed him to use real events to his own needs.
However, he was not a great leader, and the once lush planet soon fell into a tailspin. Bridin allowed criminal organizations to take
control of much of the land, and dismal slums soon replaced the picturesque beaches. (GG11)

this planet was a colony world, settled in the Portmoak Sector of the Outer Rim Territories, and was located on the boundary between
Imperial and New Republic space. Once known as Gallienis IV, it was a lush world which attracted a large number of tourists. It was

Bright Hope
this Alliance transport ship was the last to evacuate Echo Base following the Battle of Hoth. As it lifted off from the ice world, it was
disabled by Zuckuss and 4-LOM, who had entered the system to respond to the bounty on Han Solo. They felt that bringing the Bright
Hope down would help mitigate the fact that they were responsible for the capture of Sector Governor Nardix. The Hope was then
further disabled by one of the Imperial Star Destroyers in the system, and drifted without power. Eighteen members of the crew
escaped in three operable life pods, and Toryn Farr was able to rescue the rest of the passengers, with the help of Zuckuss and 4-
LOM. The two hunters realized that the Alliance would accept them more than the Empire, and would help the Gand if they could.

Brin'shak negotiated the transfer through Ghitsa Dogder, who met with much resentment and resistance from the Mistryl sent to fly the
dancers, Shada D'ukal and Dunc T'racen. While everyone insisted it wasn't slavery, Brin'shak and his clan were under contract to
receive eighty percent of the dancers; income from Durga while they performed. However, Ghitsa was not about to sell the dancers into
slavery. She arranged to have it look like the Karazak Slavers Guidl stole the dancers, and also sliced into Brin'shak's computer and
made it look like Brin'shak had been taking payments from Karazak all along. This ensured that the Shak clan would not be doing much
business in slavery(TFNR)

Bron
this man travelled to Cerea to bring as much technology to the planet as he could. He understood that the import of high-technology
items was illegal, but he used the freedom afforded to off-worlders to incite the younger Cereans to demand them of their elders. Many
of the elder Cereans, such as Ki-Adi-Mundi, believed that Bron was an outright liar, spinning wondrous tales of the Republic that were
simply not true. However, as the elders tried to stop him, they realized that such actions would simply lend credence to his diatribes.
When Ki was accused of the murder of a young male, Bron saw his chance to turn the tide of the elders. Despite the fact that the youth
was actually killed when Maj-Odo-Nomor tried to use the Jedi’s lightsaber, Bron continued to push his point that the elders could use
technology when it suited them, but kept it from the younger members of society. He also used Maj as a sort of hero-figure, building him
up in the minds of his peers as an unjustly imprisoned youth. However, it was all just a backdrop to his own schemes, which counted on
the skills of Ephant Mon to import swoops and other high-technology equipment to Cerea in exchange for tecave and malium. When Ki
managed to track Ephant Mon to Tatooine and discover information on the Hutt’s connections to the Trade Federation, Bron backed
down on his tirades and went into hiding. (PTR)

Brosi
this lushly forested world was the fourth planet in the Dostra System, and was the only inhabitable world in the Thandon Cluster. The
planet was unremarkable, except for the fact that its crust and mantle were rich in zinsian, which the Corporate Sector Authority used
as a dry preservative. The CSA established a number of zinsian processing plants, and annexed the planet despite the wishes of the
native Brosin. The average day on Brosi lasted 26.5 standard hours, and its year encompassed 289 local days. Brosin had one natural
satellite. (AIR)

Brother Fivelines
this huge droid was once the ruler of the planet Ronyards. Like the other droids there, he had been sent to Ronyards to be scrapped.
However, the planet-wide construct of various droid parts kept him active. He became a believer that the planet was the Body of the
Living God, and felt that it would protect him in any situation. When C-3PO and R2-D2 travel to Ronyards to warn the droids of an
impending Imperial meltdown of the droids there, Fivelines falls back on the belief that the planet will protect the droids. However, the
Imperials cared little for Ronyards, and sent gougers to melt the droids down. Fivelines was destroyed in the Imperial invasion, but this
set off a mysterious storm of droid shrapnel from the planet-wide droid construct. This storm decimated the Imperial forces, saving the
remaining droids. (CSWDW)

BRT-series Computer
this model of super-computer was designed to perform administrative operations on a vast scale, such as managing a huge city or even
a small planetary government. Each BRT could manage the activities of 40 million beings, creating and coordinating work assignments
and personnel to ensure the smooth, day-to-day operation of an urban environment. In this capacity, the BRT series eliminated the
roles of thousands of lesser droids and many humans. This ability scared many politicians and business leaders, who recognized that
the BRT was better able to do their own jobs, at a fraction of the cost. In response, these politicians and leaders ordered the BRT line
shut down on any number of grounds, and the majority of BRT units was unplugged and physically scrapped. No more than 25 survived
at the time of the Battle of Yavin, and most of those had undergone severe memory wipes to reduce their abilities. (CRO)

and conical, and dominated by bony ridges around their eyes. A topknot of hair sprouts from the head of the males, while the females
are hairless. Their noses are used only for breathing, as their sense of smell is found in their forked tongues. They are herbivorous in
nature. Females lay a single egg every Barosian year, and very often die during childbirth, so much of Brubb society is dominated by
males. Brubbs are virtually deaf, which is probably genetic but is an excellent adaptation to the harsh winds of Baros. Brubbs are
intensely social creatures, and organize themselves into groups known as habas. They were subjugated by Thrawn during his reign of
terror. (GG4, TLC)
Bruckman

he set a new record in the swoop races by flying through Tabletop Mesa, rather than over or around it. This earned him not only the
trophy but a lot of recognition. When Han returned to Corellia with Bria Tharen, he was recognized as Bryne by Dael Levare, an event
which precipiated his flight from Corellia. (TPS)
Bryx
this planet was conquered by the Empire before the formation of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Its governor, a military expert

Bubble Building
this is the name used to describe the spherical living chambers developed by the water-dwelling Gungans of the planet Naboo.
Individual bubbles can be as small as a single room are as large as a vast audience chamber. Each is a marvel of force field
technology, as the bubble is a field that keeps the water out, the atmosphere in, and allows a slow-moving individual to pass through.
(SW1)
Bubble Cliffs
found on the planet Qiaxx, the Bubble Cliffs were famous tourist attractions. The white stone cliffs were riddled with huge, thirty-meter-
across bubbles that were natural phenomena. In primitive times, the bubbles were used as dwellings by the ancient races of Qiaxx, and
many of then were restored as historical sites by the modern inhabitants of the planet. Daily landspeeder tours of the Bubble Cliffs were
managed by the Black Nebula organization, as a front for their criminal activites. (MJEH)
Bubble Spore
this unusual plant is native to the swamplands of Naboo. It grows rapidly, and is considered quite beautiful by humans and Gungans.
The Gungans use the plant in the creation of bubble wort. It is named for the bubble-like seed spores the plant creates in order to
spread. These bubbles float on the water as well as on the breeze, allowing the plant to establish itself over great distances. (GF)

Buboicullaar
a frog-dog living on Tatooine, Bubo was at once plotting against and assisting in plots against Jabba the Hutt. He was an Imperial
operative, infiltrated into the Hutt's palace to facilitate communications between the Empire and Ree-Yees. A small transmitter had been
placed in a lump of flesh on Bubo's body, hidden until Ree-Yees needed to receive a message. The Gran would then reach into the
lump and extract the message display, replacing it after reading the message. Bubo detested Ree-Yees for his drunkenness and his
inability to act on his own. Thus, when Ree-Yees was to receive a detonator link for the bomb he was building, Bubo ate it in front of the
Gran. This enraged Ree-Yees, and amused Bubo. While all of this was going on, Bubo was secretly receiving training from one of the
B'omarr monks, Evilo Nailati. Bubo learned much from the monk, and when Jabba was killed at the Pit of Carkoon, the B'omarr gladly
welcomed Bubo's brain into the realm of the enlightened ones. (ROTJ, TJP)

temple, and was able to reach it before them. Inside, he discovered the source of magic and incredible power, and gave himself to it.
He hoped to control the galaxy, but the power was maintained by the ancient Tempestro spirits. They deemed Bullwin unworthy of the
power, and destroyed him. (GG8)

Bulwark, The
this was the nickname given to Imperial space platform 1B6/Green, located in Darpa Sector near the border with Bormea Sector. (FOP)
Bulwark Battlecruiser
designed and manufactured by TransGalMeg, this older battleship found acceptance in the Alliance fleet during the Galactic Civil War.
Many felt that the ship's electronics and sensors were too finicky for regular combat, but the Alliance found that the Bulwark was more
than adequately armed and shielded for battle. Most Alliance Bulwark battlecruisers served as mobile command bases for smaller
fleets, which were detached from their primary battle group. (REB)
Bumpout
this is the term used by the residents of Tatooine’s desert cities to describe a small room that has been added to a main structure.
Often, these small rooms resembled bulbous additions, a shape that was most stable for the mud and sand mixture used to create
them. (TPM)
Bumpy's Breakers
this was the name given to one of the pro-circuit podraces held annually on the planet Aquilaris. (RAC)
Bundil II

Bundim
Commander Resner believed that Bundim was base of operations for the Alliance forces that began rebelling in Trax Sector, shortly
after the Battle of Yavin. The planetary government secretly tried to remove the Imperial presence from the planet, but an inside source
alerted the Empire to Bundim's plans. The Empire's response was swift, and meant to make an example of Bundim for the rest of the
sector. A number of merchant ships were destroyed, and many cities were leveled in aerial bombardments. Bundim was garrisoned and
subjugated in less than a week. The Alliance worked diligently to help the natives liberate themsevlves, and their efforts were nearly
thwarted after the Battle of Heg. Kentara, one of the first Alliance agents captured, later returned and help complete the liberation effort.

Bunkurd Corporation
once based on Coruscant, this company operated several centuries prior to the Battle of Endor. They engineered a bacterium that
could help break down the huge amount of waste coming out of Imperial City each day. The bacterium would eat the sludge and grime,
converting it to more biodegradable by-products. The bacterium was responsible for a twenty-percent improvement in Coruscant's
sewage problems. However, if the bacterium was consumed by humans, it would make them feel as if they had food poisoning. This
became known as Bunkurd Sewer Disorder. Bunkurd later developed a way to contain the bacterium in a self-contained treatment
system known as the Bunkurd Reclamation System. (WS)

Bureau Seals
these Imperial Customs container seals are thin plastic strips and stickers used to seal shipping containers. Within the strips are tiny
microchips, as well as a special dissolving agent. The strips are bonded to the locks or latches of containers, and permanently mark the
container during transport. Seals which match an Imperial inspections listing are passed through Customs without intervention. A quick
scan of the microchips will reveal the seal’s identification. If the seal is roughly handled or broken, the dissolving agent is released and
destroys the seal. (SWJ9)

Burellion Tiy
this Sullustan worked in the Outer Rim Territories as a used starships salesbeing. He made a living buying used ships from SoroSuub
Corporation and then making them available at enticing prices to the general public. Like many Sullustans, Tiy felt that SoroSuub
needed to break away from the Empire and support the Alliance. He eventually became an Alliance operative, using his contacts within
SoroSuub to gather Imperial military intelligence during his travels. He then arranged to turn this information over to the Alliance. His
hatred of the Empire is strong, and he once sold an Imperial garrison a group of sabotaged patrol ships. The ships gave off
electromagnetic signatures that told their ships' sensors that there were X-Wings in the area. To his delight, the Imperials increased
their patrols and their defenses in a virtually barren area of space. (CRO)

Burrk
a former stormtrooper who had deserted the Empire following the Battle of Endor, Burrk was discovered by Luke Skywalker and Callista
on Hoth, where he and his crew were illegally hunting Wampas for their pelts. Burrk had teamed up with two sibling Cathars, Nodon
and Nonak, thinking that they were formidable hunters. They were ambushed by Wampas on a run, on which they were hosting Drom
Guldi, and the Wampas accidentally hit the auto-destruct sequence for his ship. The ship exploded before they could fight off the
Wampas, and they were stranded. Burrk was killed when the Wampas managed to break into the remnants of Echo Base the Burrk and
his team were using as a shelter. (DS)

Bwahl
this Hutt was considered ugly even by Hutt standards. Bwahl’s skin was a dingy gray color, and he was missing an eye. Bwahl often
employed independent shippers like Kaj Nedmak and Celia Durasha, in an effort to move merchandise without getting involved directly
with the law. Kaj owed Bwahl a large sum of credits, after he dumped a cargo in the Gordian Reach. Bwahl forgave him, since Kaj was
otherwise reliable, but the debt remained unpaid, so Kaj was forced to work it off. Kaj later decided to pay off all his debts by double-
crossing Bwahl. He planned to use a shipment of Bwahl's weapons to pay off a debt to Rass M'Guy, then run enough spice to quickly
pay back Bwahl. However, Bwahl discovered his plans, and sent out his agents to capture or kill him. (SWJ14)

Byrg, Tegist
this man was the planetary Governor of Glova, during the early years of the New Republic. Byrg grew up as the son of a street beggar,
and apprenticed himself to a local thief. This early training helped him learn the necessary skills to build his own personal empire, and
his network of associates soon elected him Governor. He was also a restaurantuer, owning Aramand's and the Orchid hotel. It was
rumored that Byrg was a staunch supporter of Emperor Palpatine, and that he remained loyal to the Empire after the Battle of Endor.
These rumors were eventually proven true by Robet Makina, and Byrg was removed form office when his dealings were exposed by a
group of smugglers stranded on Glova. (POC)
Byrga
this Imperial Lieutenant was in command of an AT-AT walker serving the garrison of General Xarran on the planet Vryssa. Like his
peers, he was killed when Boba Fett came to Vryssa to recover Rivo Xarran. The pilots who worked with Byrga detested his self-
confidence and open disdain for subordinates. Fett used a magnetic grappler to reach the main body of the walker, then entered the
cargo hold. He executed Byrga when the Lieutenant went to investigate the noise in the hold. Fett then executed the two pilots and took
control of the walker. (TFNR)
Byrne, Tallus
one of the early aliases used by Han Solo, during his tenure with Garris Shrike. (TPS)
Byrne City
the capital city of the planet Demophon, located on the continent of Junno. Like most of Demophon's cities, it was domed to keep out
the planet's harsh atmosphere. When the system's star started to go supernova, the domes became more than a necessity. It was
linked, via underground tunnels, to most of the other cities on Junno. It was also the site of Byrneport, the planet's primary spaceport.

in more esoteric applications. (CFG)
Byss
1) a planet located in the Deep Core that is incredibly strong with the Dark Side of The Force. Originally used as a private retreat for the
Emperor Palpatine, it was touted as a paradise. Thus, Palpatine was able to get millions of people to voluntarily bring their life energies
to the planet. Once they were there, Palpatine enslaved them by using the Dark Side of the Force, feeding the growing evil that existed
on the planet. He then built it into a model of a society that was ruled by the Dark Side. The reborn Emperor used the planet as his
stronghold for his cloning activities, and for the source of his power during his resurrection. It has a normal day of 31 standard hours,
and a year which lasts 207 local days. (DE1, DESB)
2) one of the two binary stars that dominate the Byss-Abyss system. (GG4)
3) the primary planet in the binary star system of Abyss and Byss, and the homeworld of the Abyssin race. It is an arid world, with
isolated pockets of fertile ground. The planet's surface is baked when it rotates in between the two stars in a strange figure-eight orbit.
This requires that the Abyssin continually move to the more fertile areas. The planet's plant life has also adapted the ability to send out
large taproots to collect any available water. (GG4)

crossfire and was struck by a laser bolt. He didn't survive the wound. (CSWEA)
B1
a series of labor droids built by AccuTronics, the B1 was designed to perform heavy-lifting and manipulatory tasks. The B1 has become
a necessary part of most spaceports, where it is used to load and unload bulk freighters and other cargo ships. The 1.5-meter droid was
programmed to respond to the simplest of commands, and is incapable of learning from its environment. This eliminates the need for
periodic memory wipes, reducing the operating costs associated with it. (RASB)
B14
this 613-series digger droid was owned by the Tredway family, and worked at the 24 Tredway mining facility until it was destroyed by
Imperial Governor Parnell. B14 provided information on the injuries to Dena Tredway to Luke Skywalker. B14, along with B70 and P39,

C-3PO (See-Threepio)
this protocol droid was built from spare parts by the nine-year-old Anakin Skywalker. The droid’s presence was a secret, as Anakin
didn’t want him taken away by his master, Watto. The number 3 in the droid’s name was Anakin’s attempt to indicate that the droid
would be the third member of his family, beside himself and his mother. According to A Guide to the Star Wars Universe, C-3PO was
activated around 95 PE. By the time Anakin was freed from slavery by Qui-Gon Jinn, C-3PO was nearly completed. All he lacked was
an outer skin and minor modifications. Eventually, C-3PO was given a gold outer skin, and was reunited with the astromech droid
named R2-D2 some years before the Battle of Yavin. The two had many adventures avoiding Olag Greck in the Kalarba System. C-
3PO was the victim of tampering by Movo Brattakin, who inserted an initiative submodule in his leg to help expose Greck and Jace
Forno on Boonda the Hutt's moon. After these adventures, C-3PO was eventually assigned to use in the Imperial Senate, translating
the proceedings for a number of alien ambassadors. It was during this time that he became "friends" with R2-D2, one of the Navy's
astromech droids. Even though they had separate functions and programming, they maintained their version of friendship. Note that,
despite what the Droids comics say about their meeting, the Star Wars Radio Drama infers that C-3PO nad R2-D2 didn't meet until C-
3PO was assigned as R2-D2's translator during routine labor assigning on the Tantive IV. When the Senator Palpatine began to gain
his power, the growing Alliance took Threepio under their domain and assigned him to mediate the various agreements between the
Alliance and alien worlds. One such mission led him onto the Tantive IV, where he was tagging along with R2-D2 one too many times.
When Artoo escaped from the ship in an escape pod, Threepio followed him, fearing that the Empire would only melt him down. Since
then, he has been owned by Luke Skywalker following his auction at the hands of one of Tatooine's roving Jawa clans. Luke is C-3PO's
43rd master, having been owned by diplomats and starshipwrights before then. He has helped Luke whenever possible, and has also
maintained his friendship with Artoo, although (just like old friends) they constantly bicker at each other. The novel The New Republic
states that C-3PO was three models out of date, some seventeen years after the Battle of Endor. This is unusual, given that C-3PO is
well over 120 years old at the time. C-3PO was portrayed by Anthony Daniels in all three Star Wars films as well as for both Star Wars
radio dramas on National Public Radio. (SW, SWR, ESB, ESBR, ROTJ, SGL, DRO, TNR, SW1)
C-3PX
1) a psychotic 3PO-series droid created by Olag Greck, this droid was programmed to be an assassin. C-3PX evaded capture for a
while, until it returned to Hosk Station. There, it was involved in a series of strange events when C-3PO's cranium was patched with an
X-shaped marking. Both droids were taken for the assassin droid, and both ended up in Olag Greck's gladiator droid arena facing
R2-D2. C-3PO survived, but C-3PX was destroyed by the power mallet mounted on R2-D2's Mandalorian battle armor. C-3PX had stun
weapons and lasers built into its arms, and had a unique laser weapon built into the back of its head. (DRO)
2) this gold-plated droid was humanoid in stature, although its head lacked any sort of face. It was based on the Cybot Galactica TC-
series protocol droid, but was modified by Darth Maul to contain no less than eighty-three different weapons. C-3PX served as the
sentry and sometimes co-pilot of Maul's Sith Infiltrator. Maul had also programmed the droid himself, and it loyally followed his orders
and could react suitably to almost any situation. After Maul had allowed himself to be captured by the Bartokks on Ralltiir, C-3PX also
allowed itself to be captured, and feigned the whiny, worried tone of a protocol droid to further fool the Bartokks. After Maul learned that
the Bartokks had been hired by Groodo the Hutt, he arranged for the destruction of the Ralltiir facility. It was believed that C-3PX was
still inside when the building exploded. (E1A3)
C-4 Series
this is the fourth of the protocol droid series produced by Cybot Galactica. (TNR)
C-5 Series
this is the fifth of the protocol droid series produced by Cybot Galactica. (TNR)
C-5MO
this silver protocol droid served as the operator of a droid shop on the planet Bastion. Han Solo, Lobot, and Lando Calrissian ducked
into C-5MO's store while they were being pursued by Imperial forces, hoping to break the contact the Imperials had with Lobot's impant
and Moegid. They got a number of R8 astromech droids to communicate on Imperial search frequencies, blocking Lobot's link and
allowing them to return to the Lady Luck. (VOF)

C-7NO
this administrative droid was assigned to the Alliance's Team 19, and worked under the direction of Sergeant Whumparrin. (ROE)
C-73 Tracker
this outdated starfighter was produced by Subpro before the Z-95 Headhunter. Most of them had been relegated to museums at the
height of the New Order, but a few were maintained in credit-poor pirate fleets. The C-73 measured 11.5 meters in length, and was
armed with a front-mounted double laser cannon. It was short-range fighter, lacking a hyperdrive. (PP)
C-8 Series
this is the eight of the protocol droid series produced by Cybot Galactica. (TNR)
C-9 Series
this is the latest of the protocol droid series produced by Cybot Galactica. Among their improvements are heati and motion-sensitive
detection devices added to their normal visual detection systems. Also, their feet were smaller than those of previous series. (TNR)
C-9PO
1) this new-model protocol droid was purchased and modified by Brakiss for use at his manufacturing facility on Telti. (TNR)
2) this copper-colored protocol droid was captured by the Red Knights of Life, shortly before Leia Organa Solo was scheduled to meet
with Nom Anor. C-9PO was quickly dismantled by the Knights. (VP)
C-9979
this was the model number of Hoar Chall Engineering’s landing craft. Built for the Neimoidians who controlled the Trade Federation, the
C-9979 resembled a huge letter I when viewed from above. The four lobes of the craft held the various components of a Federation
invasion force: 11 MTT transports, 114 AAT battle tanks, 28 droid troop transports, and the complete compliment of battle droids
needed to control these smaller ships. The C-9979 required a crew of 88, and the Neimoidians used droids for all crew positions. The
transport were deployed from the lobes by a complex system of tracks and lifts that channel them through the central section, which
hangs down below the I-shaped wings. Complete deployment of all forces takes about 45 minutes. The overall wingspan of the C-9979
is 340 meters. It is lightly armed, with a pair of laser cannons mounted on the forward wingtips and four turret-mounted laser cannons
spread around the main section. It lacks a hyperdrive, being purely a landing craft, but has a maximum atmospheric speed of 587 kph.

C'ar L'andara
this Twi'leki female once served as a dancing girl for Moff Julstan of Arkanis Sector, before she was captured by Talas Piran. Piran,
however, decided that she would be more useful to him than to the Empire, and placed her in charge of the Ryloth-based slaving teams
which worked for the Mytaranor Slaving Council. (AIR)
C'baoth, Jorus
a Jedi Master lost with the Outbound Flight team, Jorus was born on the planet Bortras. He graduated from Mirnic University, and
attended the Jedi Training center on Kamparas before coming under the tutelage of an unknown Jedi Master. After a total of four years
of training, Jorus was eleveted to the rank of Jedi Knight. Twelve years later, he became a Jedi Master. He served the Old Republic in a
number of ways, most notably as a negotiator and mediator for many of the galaxy's racial conflicts. When Palpatine readied himself to
usurp the galactic throne, he had Jorus cloned shortly before the launch of the Outbound Flight Project. Jorus and the other five Jedi
Masters on the Project were killed when their ship was attacked by Thrawn, at the order of Palpatine himself. A clone was eventually
created, but it was one of Palpatine's first attempts to bring a clone to maturity faster than a full year. Thus, C'baoth's clone was
unstable. It did, however, retain its use of the Force, and Palpatine trained it in the use of the Dark Side of the Force. (HTTE, DFR)
C'baoth, Joruus
Jorus C'baoth's unstable clone, grown by Palpatine too fast in an attempt to obtain a new Dark Jedi Master. Joruus was unstable
enough to have killed the last Dark Jedi on an unspecified planet. He was later assigned by Palpatine to guard the Mount Tantiss
installation on Wayland. Joruus claims to have killed the Guardian of Wayland, although he was actually the only Guardian ever placed
on the planet, and he routinely slaughtered the inhabitants as well as visitors to Wayland in order to secure his position. Joruus was
pulled into Imperial service by Grand Admiral Thrawn, who sought C'baoth's help in creating a huge army of clones to serve the new
Empire. Joruus had his own mad delusions of ruling the Empire, and was often at odds with Thrawn's plans. Joruus was partially
successful in his quest to alter and shape the minds of the clones they were creating, but their plans fell for naught when the New
Republic discovered Wayland. There, in a titanic battle in the throne room in Mount Tantiss, Joruss was killed by Mara Jade. (HTTE,

C’taunmar
this Tai’ni was a New Republic armed forces General, and was in command of the starfighter base on Di’tai’ni during the conflicts that
arose after the revelation of the Caamas Document. C'taunmar was later in command of the A-Wing squadrons assigned to Garm Bel
Iblis aboard the Errant Venture, during the raid on Yaga Minor. (SOP, VOF)
Caamas
this planet was one of the first worlds completely destroyed by the Empire. The event happened before the Death Star was created; in
fact, the royal library on Alderaan contained a great deal of information on the attack that burned every living thing off its surface.
However, it was attacked in the early days of the New Order, and never became the focal point that Alderaan did. The destruction
remained a mystery, though, because Caamas was protected by a strong planetary shield. No one discovered how the shield was
dropped until some ten years after the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn. Several datacards found near Mount Tantiss, on Wayland,
implicated a group of Bothans in the attack, directly stating that they helped bring the shields down. The records of the actual Bothan
clans involved were destroyed. The planet was wracked by intense firestorms for several years after the attack, which wiped out any
living thing that might have survived the initial attack. (SOP)
Caamas Document
this was the name given to the datacard recovered from Mount Tantiss by Lak Jit, and which contained information which linked the
Bothans to the destruction of Caamas. The datacard described how a group of Bothans were responsible for bringing down the
planetary shields that protected Caamas, but the sections which named the Bothans was destroyed. Grodin Tierce managed to alter
every copy the Empire had in its libraries, placing the names of many prominent Bothan clans in place of the true identities. Han Solo
and Lando Calrissian were given an altered copy by Flim, who was posing as Grand Admiral Thrawn. Garm Bel Iblis and Booster Terrik
mounted an assault on Yaga Minor's Ubiqtorate base to locate a copy at the same time Admiral Pellaeon allowed Ghent to obtain it
from the Ubiqtorate's computers. The only unadulterated copy the New Republic managed to find was recovered by Artoo-Detoo, who
was helping Luke Skywalker rescue Mara Jade, during their escape from the Hand of Thrawn complex on Nirauan. (SOP, VOF)
Caamas Incident
this term took on two meanings about fifteen years after the Battle of Endor. First and foremost, it referred to the destruction of the
planet Caamas during Emperor Palpatine’s early days in power. Second, it came to describe the reaction within the New Republic to
information which implicated the Bothans in the attack on Caamas. Because Bothans had been instrumental in the formation of the
New Republic, many of the member races were outraged when immediate reparations weren’t made after the information was
discovered. The Caamas Incident served to bring to the forefront several long-standing feuds between member races, including that of
the Ishori and Diamala. These squabbles quickly spread to other races, and ignited a series of battles that the New Republic seemed
powerless to put down. The remnants of the Empire, under Moff Disra, used the Incident to their advantage. They placed specialized
riot groups throughout the galaxy, fomenting the suppressed alien grudges and bringing chaos to the Republic. (SOP)
Caamasi
this peaceful race was native to the planet Caamas. Strong supporters of the Old Republic, the Caamasi calm wisdom and steadfast
loyalty helped keep the Republic from completely disintegrating during its final years. There were several thousand Caamasi off-world
when the Empire attacked and destroyed the planet, leaving it a barren wasteland. They were powerless to protest the attack, given
that it occurred during the early years of Emperor Palpatine’s rule. Some of the survivors tried to establish a colonyon Alderaan’s South
Islands, hoping to someday rebuild their world. As a race, the Caamasi were covered in a golden, downy fur, highlighted on their faces
by purple stripes. Their most striking feature was their blue-on-green eyes. (SOP, IJ, VOF)
Caamasi Remnant
this is the name given to the various communities of dishomed Caamasi which dot the galaxy. (IJ)
Caaraz
this tide-locked planet is geologically active. Both the frozen night-side and the baked day-side undergo regular tectonic movement,
allowing subterranean gases, lava, and steam escape into the atmosphere. Along the terminator line between the night and day sides,
this creates a thin habitable region, and it is here that the Ranth race evolved. However, very little other life has managed to survive of
Caaraz, as it is continually destroyed. The planet was discovered by Imperial scouts. Two moons help provide illumination to the night-
side of the planet. (GG12)
Cabal, The
1) this group was formed by the dreamer and prophet Deamos Na-Coth to search the outermost reaches of the galaxy for the legendary
planet Exo. The used huge colony ships to travel across space at a time when hyperspace travel was still dangerous, and many colony
ships were lost because of pirates, ion storms, mutinies, and hyperdrive malfunctions. One of the Cabal's ships, the Exocros Cabal,
discovered the planet Exocron. (KO)
2) this pro-Imperial faction rose to power in the wake of the Battle of Endor. It was opposed by the Imperial Council chaired by Sate
Pestage and commanded by Ysanne Isard. Much of the Cabal had holdings on Brentaal IV, which was why Isard and Pestage tried to
draw Rogue Squadron to the world. They hoped to "rescue" the Cabal and its holdings, thereby proving that the Cabal was unable to
control its own holdings, not to mention an entire Empire. Isard retained Lon Isoto in the position of control, to guard the moon against
attack from the New Republic, knowing that he was favored by the Cabal but largely ineffectual. (XWES)

Hutt tried to contact him about unloading Princess Nampi's freighter. However, Nuum was slowly going insane, but no one in his
household had the nerve to kill him. His treacherous children tried to overthrow the deal and kill Nuum as well as Jabba the Hutt, in an
effort to gain notoriety. Jabba smothered Cabrool, with the help of some of Nuum's guards, elevating his son, Rusk, to the head of his
organization. (JTH)

Cadmir, Jerem
this young, Corellian man was a member of the ExGal-4 team on Belkadan, at the time of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. He
was part of a scouting team sent out to locate a huge storm which had been detected on the outpost's sensors, but the party was
astonished to find that much of Belkadan had become an ecological wasteland. Yomin Carr's dweebit beetles had begun an irreversible
change, and the group realized that they didn't have enough oxygen to make it back intact. In the end, Jerem was the only member of
the scouting party to survive the return trip, but the only being he found at the outpost was Yomin Carr himself. Jerem tried to
understand how Carr could unleash the dweebits, but Carr wouldn't let him live that long. Carr told Jerem he would have a warrior's
death, then the Yuuzhan Vong snapped Jerem's neck with a single twist of his hands. (VP)

Caelus
this New Republic battle cruiser was part of the primary fleet stationed at Durren. When Seti Ashgad instigated pirate attacks on
Ampliquen during his attempt to gain control of the galaxy with Dzym, the Caelus and the Corbantis were dispatched to Ampliquen.
Both ships were infected with the Death Seed plague by Ashgad’s agents, and once the crews were killed the ships were disposed on
on distant planets. (POT)
Caerbellak
this Imperial Moff was one of the most dangerous Imperials to survive the Battle of Endor and the fall of the Empire. He firmly believed
he could bring about the downfall of the New Republic and restore the New Order to the galaxy. He began working toward this goal by
removing any Republic support from his base sector, starting on the capital world of Rydonni Prime. He employed Rythani Products
much the same way Palpatine did, contracting out military manufacturing and research. Caerbellak was a man who was equally adept
at shady politics and military offensives, and had no qualms about using either when the need arose. He saw a chance to gain a great
deal of power when Rythani began work on a prototype weapon that would help him wipe out supporters of the Republic. When the
monarch of Rydonni Prime got in his way, Caerbellak fostered a relationship with his daughter, Kalieva K’ntarr. When Sienn Sconn tried
to steal the prototype, Caerbellak allowed the theft to occur just as he killed the Rydonni king. With the help of Kalieva, Caerbellak
became the de facto executive of Rythani Products as well as the consort of the ruler of Rydonni Prime. The prototype found its way to
the New Republic, and using hidden transmitters, Caerbellak began marking New Republic outposts and research centers for
destruction. (SWJ9)
Caet Shrovl
this female Shistavenan Wolfman was an albino, and was one of the pilots in Rock Squadron, serving the Kuiumin Survivors. She
served as Rock Ten during the attack on the Galaxy Chance. Her albino coloration meant that she was extremely sensitive to light, and
had to fully cover herself to walk around during the day. She considered her albinism the fault of the Empire, for they had experimented
on her mother. She joined the Survivors because of their hatred for the Empire. Because of her self-imposed isolation, she was an easy
target for Remart Sasyru, who beat her badly before being shipped to Bolt Squadron. She was one of the first Invids to test on the Tri-
fighters Corran had equipped with hyperdrives, and she used this training to flee Courkrus when Corran, disguised as an "avenging
Jedi," began terrorizing the pirate groups. (IJ)

training to become a Jedi Knight when the Empire took control of the galaxy. He hid on his homeworld of Adarlon, where he told his
neighbors about the atrocities the Empire was committing. This incited the natives of Adarlon to rebel against Imperial control, and
brought a group of stormtroopers down on his headquarters. Cairnwick had fled before they arrived, and managed to remain in hiding a
few more years before he was eventually captured. He was arrested shortly after the Battle of Yavin, but still managed to rally support
for the Alliance on the prison world Gesaril. He managed to rescue a group of Alliance POWs before stormtroopers could discover what

Cal Ambre
this modified Kumauri Cal-class warship was used as a luxury gambling liner during the height of the New Order. It maintained a
permanent orbit in the Bramior System, near Rove and just outside the system's asteroid field. The ship's armament was reduced to a
single mass driver weapon, a pair of turbolaser cannons, and six tractor beam projectors. These weapons systems serve more to
ensure that no stray asteroids impact the ship than for defense. Much of its internal structure was modified to create quest quarters and
casinos, while the hangar bays were extensively reworked to accommodate the small shuttles used by its patrons. The ship was run by
a crew of 2,150, with 46 gunners manning the defenses. It could transport up to 9,000 pasengers in luxurious comfort, and remain in
orbit for up to three months before needing to be re-supplied. The primary game of chance played aboard the ship is Bombarde,
developed specifically for the Cal Ambre. (CRO)
Cal-class Warship
an Old Republic warship, the Cal-class ship measured 3,000 meters in length. It was armed with a huge mass drive weapon mounted

Calamari
an ocean-covered world with little solid land mass, Calamari is home to two amphibious races: the land-dwelling Mon Calamari and the
ocean-dwelling Quarren. It is a tectonically stable world, without mountains. The planet is covered with deep oceans, with many islands
and coral atolls. Much of the exposed land is marshy, and incapable of supporting any kind of civilization. Thus, the two native species
turned to building floating cities from the ores mined from the ocean floor. Some parts of the cities are exposed above the ocean's
surface, but the majority of the space in Calamari cities is underwater. It is famous for its shipyards. It has a single moon. Its day lasts
about 21 standard hours, and its year spans 398 local days. (ROTJ, DE1, SWSB, GG4, DA, COTF, DESB)

Calrissian, Lando
Lando Calrissian is a dark-skinned, human male from an undisclosed world. Born during the later years of the Old Republic, Lando
grew into a gambler and con-artiste, smoking cigars and learning how to play sabacc and win regularly. Never one to stay in any single
place too long, Lando made more friends than enemies in his early years roaming the galaxy. Ever the gambler, Lando considered
himself the Commander of Staves, a sabacc card that often showed up in the fortunes told about him with the sabacc deck. When a
perfect hand of sabacc won him ownership of the Millennium Falcon, Lando's life took a strange turn. He ran into Han Solo on Nar
Shaddaa, rescuing the young man from Boba Fett. Lando was never much of a pilot, and allowed Han to teach him the basics.
However, following the Battle of Nar Shaddaa, Lando’s first flight went off-course, bringing him to the Oseon System. A few games of
sabacc later, Lando had won the strange droid Vuffi Raa, and was launched into a series of adventures. As was par for the course,
Lando made a few more enemies during this time, the greatest of which was the Tund Sorcerer Rokur Gepta. Gepta pursued Lando
across the galaxy after Lando loosed the Mindharp of the Sharu from its hiding place; Gepta wanted the artifact for himself. After getting
stuck in one of the Oseon's Flamewinds, Gepta nearly killed Lando in an elaborate plot. By this time, Lando was beginning to feel his
own mortality, and when he and Vuffi Raa encountered the Oswaft, he sympathized for them enough to try and run the Imperial
blockade of their home and bring them food. Gepta again nearly killed Lando at the ThonBoka, but Lando was able to overcome the
Sorcerer and eliminate him. After this, Lando began honing his business skills, and he used the Millennium Falcon to start a small
transport operation. It was during this time that a young smuggler named Han Solo beat him at sabacc. Lando had offered up Han's
pick of the starships in Lando's personal fleet, hoping that Han would pick one of the shiny new ships over the battered Falcon. Han's
nose for starships led him to choose the old freighter, and Lando was left to his newer, less friendly ships. Using his nose for business,
Lando learned of the tibanna gas mines near Bespin, and set out to see them for himself. He ended up winning Cloud City in a sabacc
match, and his growing business acumen allowed him to turn the mining outpost into a profitable operation. However, when Boba Fett
later traced the Millennium Falconback to Cloud City, Lando's string of hard-luck business ventures began. Darth Vader commandeers
Cloud City in order to capture Luke Skywalker and Lando was forced to evacuate the outpost. After seeing Han Solo frozen in carbonite
and Cloud City overrun by stormtroopers, Lando signed up with the Alliance, and became one of the Alliance's best generals, leading a
number of missions to success, including the bombing run on the second Death Star orbitting over the forest moon of Endor. Following
the destruction of that Death Star and the fall of the Empire, Lando returned to Cloud City, but was unable to make the operation
profitable. Using a set of plans and ideas he borrowed from Cloud City's founder, Ecclessis Figg, Lando started The Nomad City mining
operation on Nkllon. In another stroke of bad luck, Grand Admiral Thrawn first stole most of his mole miners, then disabled the mobile
city in a strafing run. Lando was forced to abandon the mining operation before Nkllon's intense primary star fried it to ashes. After
assisting the New Republic in the defeat of Thrawn, Lando tried his best to win the heart of Mara Jade. He succeeded only in gaining
her as a business partner, as the two joined their collective resources to try and re-establish the spice mines of Kessel as a legal
operation. This failed, as the galaxy no longer felt the need to indulge in artificial pleasures. Down on his luck, Lando set up camp on
the planet Coruscant, and began working on Dometown, an underground city that was not too affluent but could cater to the
upper-middle class. He only needed financial support, and devised a plan where he would marry a rich woman who could support his
monetary needs while turning a profit with him. Lando courted several woman, but found himself drawn to Tendra Risant. He was
temporarily thwarted in this endeavor by the secession of the Corellian Sector from the New Republic, as his prospective bride was a
native of Sacorria. However, after the resolution of the Corellian Crisis, Lando and Tendra began to discover that their relationship
transcended the galactic politics. Eventually, they were married. Lando Calrissian was portrayed by Billy Dee Williams in Star Wars:
The Empire Strikes Back and Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, as well as for the The Empire Strikes Back Radio Drama on National Public
Radio. (ESB, EROTJ, HTTE, DFR, COTF, AC, THG, BP)

Cambriel, Seth
this man was known to be a wealthy entrepreneur who made millions of credits playing the stock markets, buying up companies which
were about to be nationalized by the Empire, then selling out at huge profits later on. He then retired to Spira to watch the Galactic Civil
War play out while sipping cocktails on the beach. He was something of a beach bum, albeit a rich one, and spent a lot of time in the
casinos and bars of the Aspre Plunge. His lifestyle, however, was actually a cover, for Seth Cambriel was also a spy for the Alliance.
The time spent in bars was often in the company of drunken Imperials, who were more than willing to have a few drinks with him.

Camray Eel
a large, predatory eel native to the Shinkai Abyss on Spira, the Camray was popular among the upper-class game hunters who traveled
to the planet for their vacations. They average nearly five meters in length, and live deep below the surface where they feed on
sliverfish. Their mouths are lined with sharp teeth, and their muscular bodies allow them to attack their prey with speed and strength.
Their fearsome reputation earned them the respect of many hunters, and the acquisition of a Camray Eel spoke to a hunter's skills.
Once removed from the ocean and killed, the Camray eel gives off a pungent, foul smell, and must be transported in a sealed container
for delivery to a taxidermist.. During the height of the Galactic Civil War, the Alliance sometimes smuggled information and hard goods
from Spira by packing them inside one of these sealed containers. (SWJ1)
Camwielder
this is the Adumari term for a reporter who uses a flatcam to record events. (SOA)
Can Lar

Cana
this Galacian was the King of the Tallah dynasty several years before the Battle of Naboo. He ruled for thirty years before passing away
some twenty years before that battle, leaving the rulership of the planet Gala to his wife, Veda. Prior to their marriage, which was
arranged by their parents, Cana fell in love with a woman from the hill clans. The Council of MInistry forbid their union, but Cana
married her anyway. Before the Council could break the marriage up, Cana's wife became pregnant. The secrecy of the pregnancy was
maintained by Cana and Veda after their own marriage. During his rule, several of the more wealthy families began corrupting the
government, taking control for themselves while distancing themselves from the poorer masses. Cana was unable to stop it before his
death. (MOC)

Candra City
one of four major starport locations, this city lies on the eastern edge of Kirima’s western continent. (TSK)
Candroidan Hookworm
this parasite was particularly dangerous, because its genetic structure allowed it to support viruses that were specific to humans. These
hookworms burrowed into their hosts and lodged themselves in the circulatory system, and could not be removed without killing the
host. When they reproduce, the hookworms “shed” any viruses it carried, dispersing them into the host’s blood supply. For this reason,
saboteurs and assassins liked to infect these hookworms with plagues and set them loose in human-inhabited areas. A swarm these
creatures was known to have infected Calif City, on Dentaal, with a strain of Candroidan Plague, depopulating the city in just three
weeks. (TBSB)
Candroidan Plague
a virulent strain of plague carried by the Candroidan hookworm. (TBSB)

Cannibal
this was the name of Barosa Warren's personal starship. This freighter measured 24 meters in length, and could carry upto 45 metric
tons of cargo and eight passengers. It required a pilot and co-pilot to operate (usually Warren and Stren Grier), and three gunners to
man the weapons. It was armed with a turret-monuted twin blaster cannon, and ion cannon, and a turret-mounted tractor beam
projector. The Cannibal was formed from hull components of the Kuat Systems Engineering Firespray-31 and the Ckratar Crafts
Venturer-class freighter, although parts from more than thrity different manufacturers were used in its construction. (AIR)
Cannibal Arachnid
a deadly creature once native to the planet Duro. (DA)
Cannibal Plant
a carnivorous plant native to the planet F'tral, the cannibal plant has a rudimentary system of mobility. They can slowly approach
another plant and feed on them. Commonly, the cannibal plant resides near a fisherplant or other hunting plan, and sinks its roots down
to twine and fuse to the hunter's root. The cannibal plant can then suck nutrients from the other plant. (GG4)
Cannij Barr
this planet, located two days from Endor, was the nearest Imperial sector capital to Endor. New Republic military leaders believed that
the Star Destroyer Unrepentant acquired data from the aftermath of the Battle of Endor and then jumped to Cannij Barr to report its
findings. (TBSB)

Canthar
this Epicanthix warrior-chief was credited with uniting the myriad of Epicanthix clans into a single entity, as well as dispatching those
clans who refused to join him. Canthar is also credited with taking the Epicanthix culture away from a purely barbaric society and
cultivating cultural and technological advancement. (SESB)
Cantina Hangover
one of the many obstacles used on swoopchasing courses, the Cantina Hangover was deceptively simple in its design. The obstacle
was formed from a long tube, inside which a mock cantina was created. Racers find themselves speeding through a maze of tables,
chairs, bars, and simulated patrons. The Hangover part comes when the riders first enter the tube, which then begins to rotate around
its central axis. The entire cantina begins to spin, and riders must continually alter their course to ensure that they get through the
spnning maze of props. (BSS)
Cantras Gola
the PowerOn Conglomeration, headquartered on this planet, threatened to secede from the Pentastar Alignment and join the New
Republic. The children of the planet's chief ambassador were kidnapped by the Karazak Slavers Guild, on orders from the Alignement,
in an effort to persuade Cantras Gola to remain with the Alignment. The children were rescued by the Red Moons, and helped break
the Alignment's hold on the planet. (TFE)
Canu
a deity worshipped by the Coways native to Circarpous V. He is apparently in charge of administering justice. In their simple religion,
Canu makes his decision based on the outcome of a battle between the strongest warrior on each side of an issue. The victor of the
battle is obviously on the correct side, since Canu helped him win. (SME)
Canyon
this world was known as a mining outpost that produced ores needed in the construction of starships and electronic systems. It was
discovered by accident when a Victory-class Star Destroyer was dragged out of hyperspace in its vicinity by a rogue asteroid. The
warship was grazed by the asteroid and damaged, but the only ships close enough to hear its distress signal were part of a pirate fleet.
An Imperial rescue operation was mounted, and basically left the pirates alone. They recognized Canyon’s natural resources, and set
up the small mining operation. The pirates, led by Guldus Bemm, continued to control the world well after the Battle of Endor. The
planet is an arid world of mountains and plains, which has an average day of 28 standard hours. Its year encompasses 389 local days.
(SWJ8)
Canyonade
this is a vast series of hotels, shops, restaurants, and meeting areas carved into the canyons of the planet Cejansij. The Canyonade is
remarkable for its diamond-shaped clusters of nine bridges linking the opposing sides of the canyon: three main bridges span the
center of the diamond, with two above and below them and a single bridge at the top and bottom of the pattern. (SOP)

Capital Scavenger
this news program picked up the story initially written by Cindel Towani for The Life Monitor, detailing the various accounts of New
Republic armed forces who fought and died during the Black Fleet Crisis. The article, drafted by Hiram Drayson, was designed to help
bolster public support of Leia Organa-Solo. (TT)
Capital Season
the time between Expansion Week and Shelova Week in the Tapani Sector, Capital Season is a social event celebrated by the upper
class and nobility of the sector. It is a time for them to mingle and spy on each other, and is held on the planet Procopia. Pleasure
cruises are often booked from Procopia to Vycynith, but the main events take place on Procopia. To avoid Procopia during Capital
Season means almost total isolation for the noble involved, which lowers their social standing and often has economic and political
implications as well. Exceptions are made on an infrequent basis for people with business outside Tapani Sector, but all business inside
the sector must stop or move to Procopia. (LE)
Capital ship
any of the huge, deep-space combat craft. Star Destroyers and Mon Cal Star Cruisers fall into this category. (SWSB)
Capital Terminal
during the last decades of the Old Republic, this was one of the primary starports located in Imperial City, on Coruscant. It was used

Capo
this Rodian was a member of the Peace Brigade, and was part of the group which infiltrated the Queen of Empire in order to recover
the Yuuzhan Vong priestess Elan. He and Darda posed as the contacts Major Showolter was to meet aboard the ship, in the effort to
safely transport Elan to the Core. Their leaders had obtained classified information from a spy within the New Republic, which allowed
them to gain Showolter's confidence. However, the backstories they were given were flawed, and when Darda claimed to have been
working on Gamoor, Showolter saw through their facade. In a firefight, Darda was shot and killed, but Capo managed to escape. He
also killed the two agents Showolter was supposed to meet before seriously wounding Showolter himself. (HT)

Captisan, Dol
this noted Bakuran Senator was the father of Gaeriel and Ylanda Captisan. Dol and wife, Marga, were killed shortly after the Empire
nationalized Bakura, when they were caught in the middle of a firefight between Imperial troops and the Bakuran resistance. Gaeriel
learned years later, from her sister Ylanda, that Marga and Dol had been active members of the resistance. (TBSB)
Captison, Gaeriel
a former Imperial Senator on Bakura, she is Yeorg Captison's niece. Her most striking feature is her eyes: one is grey and the other is
green. Her parents were killed in the crossfire of an Imperial engagement with an Alliance team, and she vowed to become an Imperial
loyalist. This, coupled with her religious concerns with the Force made her the perfect senator on the Imperial world of Bakura, until she
actually meets members of the Alliance, particularly Luke Skywalker. Luke slowly opens her eyes to the atrocities of the Empire, and
she also discovers that the Force is not inherently evil when Luke helps Eppie Belden overcome her forced catatonia. Following the
defeat of the Ssi-ruuk and the surrender of Imperial forces on Bakura, Gaeriel continued to work in politics, and was eventually named
Prime Minister. It was during this time that her political ambitions kept her in contact with the former Imperial soldier Pter Thanas. A
romantic attachment grew, and they were married 8 years after the Ssi-ruuk invasion. Together, they gave brith to a single dauhgter,
Malinza, before Pter succumbed to Knowt's disease. His death followed a failed re-election bid for Gaeriel. When the New Republic
asked for Bakuran aid in defending the Corellian System during the Starbuster Plot, Gaeriel was made the plenipotentiary and placed in
charge of the Bakuran fleet, commanded by Hortel Ossilege. She was mortally wounded when her spine was crushed in the decisive
battle near Centerpoint Station, and the flagship Intruder was rammed by three robot ramships. It was Gaeriel who pushed the
detonation button on the Intruder, igniting the ship in the midst of the Saccorian fleet, just as Admiral Ackbar arrived to help. (TB, AS,
SC)
Captisan, Marga
this woman was married to Dol Captisan, and was the mother of Gaeriel and Ylanda Captisan. Dol and Marga were killed shortly after
the Empire nationalized Bakura, when they were caught in the middle of a firefight between Imperial troops and the Bakuran resistance.
Gaeriel learned years later, from her sister Ylanda, that Marga and Dol had been active members of the resistance. (TBSB)
Captison, Tiree
Yeorg's wife, and Gaeriel's aunt (TB)
Captison, Yeorg
this man, a native of the planet Bakura, served as the Bakuran Prime Minister at the height of the New Order, and was Gaeriel's uncle.
As a child, his parents had chosen him to carry the Bowl, while his brother, Dol, was given the Feather. Yoerg renounced his religion in
anger, and struggled out his own life. While attending the university in Salis D’aar, he met Tiree. The two fell in love and were married,
and Yeorg won a seat on the Bakuran senate shortly afterward. He served on the senate for thirty years before assuming the position of
Prime Minister. When the Empire nationalized Bakura, Yeorg found himself supporting the Alliance. (TB, TBSB)
Captisan, Ylanda
this was Gaeriel Captisan's younger sister. Gaeriel always called her "Landy." Where Gaeriel was offered a full scholarship to the
Bakuran Senatorial Academy, Ylanda was destined to live her life out as a Home Mother at one of Bakura's Simple Homes. WHile at
the Simple Home, Ylanda spent many years with minimal food, and became gaunt and withdrawn. After the Empire was ousted from
control of the planet, Ylanda revealed to Gaeriel that their parents had been members of the original Bakuran resistance, and were
killed trying to free their homeworld from Imperial control. (TBSB)
Captivity
an Imperial prison facility, Captivity is a hostile moon whose violent weather and magnetic storms quell even the harshest spirits. The
moon is perpetually covered with thick clouds, and the moon's surface is a mixture of towering peaks and jagged rock formations. It is
located in the Grehollo System. (RC)
Capture Cable
this device is used by bounty hunters and law enforcement agencies. Sometimes called a smart cable, the flexible cord with a weighted
end is shot from a launcher. The weight shoots past its target and returns, and the kinetic motion causes it to wrap the extended cable
around the target. (CCG7)
Capture Droid
similar in most respects to seekers, capture droids are small, repulsor-equipped automata which were dispatched to take down fugitives
and outlaws. They had powerful stun rifles built into their carapace, and heavy lifting claws to grip and carry a downed target back to its
base. Capture droids tracked their quarry by scent, heat, and sight, and could operate in day or night. (E1A8)
Capture Permit
this certificate was sometimes required, in addition to an Imperial Peace-Keeping Certificate, to legally capture an individual wanted in a
bounty posting. (GG9)

Capza
this planet, located within the Velcar Free Commerce Zone, is a lush, tropical world. It was the home of the Commerce Master
Commissioner Gregor Raquoran. (SWAJ)
Car’das, Jorj
this man was an up-and-coming smuggler when the Clone Wars broke out. Car'das realized that the galaxy was changing, and decided
that the time had come for him to start his own operation. He took control of Booster Terrik's operation when Booster was sent to
Kessel by Hal Horn, and created a small but successful smuggling operation, although he was small compared to what the Hutts had.
About fifteen years after the Clone Wars, Car'das was commandeered by one of the Dark Jedi from Bpfassh, who killed all the crew
aboard his ship and demanded passage. Car'das survived the Dark Jedi's battle with the Jedi Master Yoda on Dagobah, after receiving
treatment from Yoda himself. However, somehow Car'das was changed by the encounter. He began taking his organization to higher
levels, creating a small empire that was involved in a number of criminal activities but not dominant in any one of them. This allowed
him to become quite rich and modestly powerful, and his organization began to rival the Hutts' outfits. He somehow seemed to know
the right move in any situation, and was always outthinking his opponents. It was during this time that Car'das also began amassing a
huge library of datacards, storing information away like it was free credits. Then, one day, Car'das simply got into his private yacht and
disappeared. His health finally started to fail, and the new life he had been given by Yoda evaporated. Car'das travelled to Dagobah to
demand that Yoda put everything right. Yoda simply took his blaster and the beckon call from his ship and flung them into the jungle,
then berated Car'das for wasting the gift he had been given. He also told Car'das that he couldn't help him any further, since he was
busy preparing for the arrival of Luke Skywalker. Car'das couldn't return to his group, so he fled to Exocron, where Yoda had indicated
he might receive help from the Aing-Tii monks. His organization continued to thrive for several months, but the lieutenants began to
discuss the need for a true leader. Rather than put it to a vote, Talon Karrde - one of Car'das' most trusted students - simply took
control of the organization. The other leaders weren't happy, but the new operation flourished for the next twenty years. After the death
of Grand Admiral Thrawn, Karrde sent Lando Calrissian and Mara Jade to search for Car'das, a search which took seven years and
ended up with Car'das somewhere on the planet Exocron. The lone clue was the beckon call Luke Skywalker had recovered on
Dagobah. Later, Lando thought that Car’das held information which could help the New Republic diffuse the Caamas Incident, but
Karrde refused to bring Car’das into it. During the Caamas Incident, Karrde finally realized that he had to confront Car'das; if not to
confront his own fears, then to recover a copy of the Caamas Document. Car'das played an elaborate ruse on him, first appearing as a
withered old man bed-ridden on the planet Exocron. Car'das' fortess was built into the side of a mountain, and Karrde was surprised at
the other man's advanced age. However, Car'das had been planning this for some time - ever since he learned of Calrissian and Jade's
search. Car'das used Karrde's desire to locate him as a way to draw the crimelord Rei'kas to Exocron and near the Kathol Rift. Car'das
and Trey David knew Exocron couldn't stand against Rei'kas's fleet, but they also knew that the Aing-Tii monks wanted to eliminate
Rei'kas. By allowing Karrde to get to Exocron, Car'das and David also gave Exocron's location to Rei'kas. However, Rei'kas' fleet was
destroyed by the Aing-Tii monks when it tried to attack Exocron. This maneuvering was nearly transparent to Karrde, who realized that
Car'das was more than a frail old man. He returned to Exocron and confronted Car'das again, who was no longer an aged man but a
healthy man of somewhat advanced age. He also revealed the true size of his fortress, with its immense library of datacards. Within it,
Car'das was unable to locate a copy of the Caamas Document. He was, however, able to dig up a wealth of information on Grodin
Tierce, Moff Disra, and the conman Flim. Karrde and Shada D'ukal brought this information back to Admiral Pellaeon, after saying their
goodbyes to Car'das. (SOP, IJ, VOF)
Car'ulorn

Carababba tabac
dried leaves of the Carababba plant for smoking (DFR)
Caraboose
a large creature native to Toola, the caraboose is a food source for the Whiphid race. It is favored slightly over the motmot in that it is
easier to bring down, but a single caraboose provides much less that a motmot. The average caraboose stands about 2 meters at the
shoulder, and is armed with a set of antlers that it can use to slash an attacker. (GG4, SWJ10)
Carahide
this is the name of the green, chitinous surface of the Verpine body. It is composed of a thin layer of protein that deflects most slashing

Carantar, Ray
this small-time smuggler made his home on the planet Marotan. Shortly after the Battle of Hoth, he agreed to help an Alliance team
infiltrate the planet Sevarcos and rescue Carter Escalon from the Imperial prison on Sevarcos. He allowed the Alliance agents to act as
his servants and crew during the Festival of the High Winds, helping him compete in the wind-rider race. However, Carantar made it
clear that he had no sympathy for the Alliance, and made the offer just to make a few extra credits. A large, bald man with several
tattooes across his hairless skull, Carantar spent a great deal of credits trying to get invited to the Festival of the High Winds. (SWJ12)
Carapace Creature
one of the vacuum-breathing lifeforms found in the ThonBoka, the carapace creature provides a food-source for the Oswaft. (LCS)
Carapod
this organic extension of the planet Zonama Sekot resembled a huge insect. They had flat, segmented bodies, and each segment had
three legs. A seventh leg extended from the front of the main segment. A pair of chitinous horns surrounded the seventh leg, and were
used for lifting heavy loads. Their bodies were a mottled collection of red, black and green patches, and some of the larger carapods
were given mechanical implants to help them do more heavy labor. The Ferroans who worked to create Sekotan starships used the
carapods as beasts of burden, employing them to transport the growing seed-partners, their masters, organic and high-tech materials to
the forging and annealing pits. The carapods were mildly intelligent, and could react to simple commands from their riders. (RP)
Carbanti

Carbinol, Verus
this incompetent man was promoted to be the Imperial Governor of the planet Garnib, during the height of the New Order. He hated
water, he hated ice, and he hated the cheerfulness of the Balinaka. However, he overcame these things in order to reap the benefits
realized from the taxation of the sale of Garnib Crystals. (GMS, PG1)
Carbon Glass

Carbon Scoring
this is the by-product of blaster bolts which strike metal surfaces on starfighters and other devices. In firefights, carbon scoring builds up
on metals and interferes with internal systems. (SW, GMH)
Carbon-freezing Chamber
a specialized chamber which preserves Tibanna gas for transport by freexing it inside carbonite. Lando Calrissian had one on his Cloud
City mining colony. The Tibanna gas is first pumped into the chamber, and then mixed with molten carbonite. This mixture is then
frozen, which traps the gas inside the block of carbonite until it is released in a reversal process. The process has often been used on
living beings, as a form of torture or retribution. Darth Vader was going to use Calrissian's chamber to freeze Luke Skywalker for
transport to the Emperor on Coruscant, and had Han Solo test-frozen first. If properly frozen, a living being goes into a state of
hybernation until the carbonite is melted. (ESB, ROTJ)
Carbon-Ice Drive
this technology was developed by the Adarians. It is also known as the comet computer, since the system's primary components are
made from supercooled, carbon-laced ice taken from comets. The Adarians use the frozen crystals of water and carbon to create the
hardware and wiring used in their computer systems. The components are kept in super-cold conditions, and subtle changes in
temperature are used to program the system. The Adarians have adapted their carbon-ice systems to monitor their starship systems,
which are capable of hyperspace travel. The system has certain limitations, the largest of which is its size. Carbon-ice computer and
hyperdrive systems can easily measure 200 meters across. Despite their limitations, carbon-ice systems are extremely powerful.
(GG12)
Carbonite
a strong metal alloy used to preserve Tibanna gas and other valuable materials. Zorba The Hutt's Revenge avers that carbonite is

Cardio-Muscular Package
this form of cybernetic enhancement involves the use of rybcoarse-based reinforcements to the recipient’s heart, lungs, and muscles.
The package allows the cyborg to run faster, lift more, and withstand more damage. The drawback is that the recipient suddenly feels
invincible, and more often than not drives the recipient to self-destruct while attempting to hyper-exert themself. NeuroSaav Corporation
pioneered this technology. (CFG)
Cardo
this Sedrian was the high priest of the city of Fitsay when Karak and his followers stole a piece of the Golden Sun before being driving
into the sea. Cardo himself was the leader of a group of priests who felt that the Golden Sun should be kept to the priests, being too
powerful for the commoners to have access to it. Cardo treated the Golden Sun as simply a coral, not an intelligent lifeform. When
Karak tried to steal the Golden Sun for himself and Commander Aban, Cardo fought valliantly to keep them out of the Great Shell
Dome. Cardo was seriously wounded by Karak's attack. Only his proximity to the Golden Sun kept him alive to warn Pek of Karak's
treachery. (BGS)

literally millions of lifeforms evolved on the planet. (AE)
Caretaker Virus
this computer virus was unleashed by the Ithorian, Zorneth, in his efforts to save the Smilers from exploitation. The virus was targetted
to infect droids. When the droids encountered a Smiler in trouble, the virus took control of their systems and forced the droids to rescue
the Smiler, no matter what the cost. The virus helped Zorneth keep the secret of savorium, but it also was planned to help him infect the
galaxy with savorium. Zorneth had planned to take control of the savorium-addicted galaxy, until his untimely death prevented it. (DRO)

Carida
a large world with a greater than standard gravity and varying climate, Carida was staunchly loyal to the Empire, although it managed to
pursuade the New Republic that is was undecided on the matter. Many of the original settlers left the planet because of the strong
gravitational force. Some 200 years before the Galactic Civil War, the Old Republic established a military academy aimed at training
armed forces. A small community grew up near the site, which grew into a full-fledged town. The tow grew to encompass an entire
planetary economy which saw its heyday under the control of Furgan. The Empire controlled the planet until Kyp Durron used the Sun
Crusher to destroy the system, while he was being influenced by Exar Kun. Later, Leonia Tavira twisted the event and made everyone
who listen believe that Kyp had been sent to Carida under orders from the New Republic. (JS, COTF, JASB, IJ)

Carivus, Xandel
this heavy-set man served on the Imperial Interim Ruling Council. He decided to align himself with Feena D'Asta, in the wake of Carnor
Jax's death at Yinchorr. Carivus was also working with Nom Anor, who predicted that the Council would eventually ask him to lead it.
The other Council members felt Carivus was nothing more than a pampered bureaucrat, and appointed him to lead the Council after the
death of Nolyds, hoping to make him a figurehead and a tool of their own plans. Carivus allowed the events to unfold around, knowing
that Nom Anor's plans were falling into place. When Lieutenant Ganner discovered that clues left behind at the scenes of the murders
of Burr Nolyds and Admiral Banjeer pointed to Kir Kanos being their assassin, he ordered every available ship and soldier to be
requisitioned for a manhunt. His leadership was challenged by Feena D'Asta and Lord Manos, but their efforts to vote him out of office
were thwarted by the other Council members. The challenge to his leadership rattled Carivus, but Nom Anor reassured him that D'Asta
would not be a problem. When they arranged to have a third Council member killed, Carivus was frightened to discover General
Immodet was poisoned. He was frightened because Immodet was not their target, and had been one of Carivus' supporters. Nom Anor
claimed to be unaffected. Carivus then appointed a personal guard, and ordered all non-human members of the Council arrested. He
also declared Feena D'Asta a traitor and had her put on trial as an enemy of the Empire. Shortly afterward, a Black Sun group of
assassins tried to kill him. They were revealed to be clones of Carivus himself, and Carivus went into hiding. He emerged long enough
to announce that he was disbanding the Council in order to rule the remnants of the Empire himself. However, his imprisonment of
Feena D'Asta raised the ire of her father, an Imperial Baron with a huge personal fleet of warships. Baron D'Asta led an attack on
Carivus's forces, decimating them in a short space battle. Carivus was left with a tattered fleet and no support, and even Nom Anor
abandoned him to his misguided plans. Carivus then ordered that Feena D'Asta be returned to her father, in the hope that the fighting
would stop. However, he also made plans to evacuate Ord Cantrell if the battle continued to turn against him, planning to abandon his
troops if it came to that. However, he was trapped by Kir Kanos and Mirith Sinn, after they returned the real Feena D'Asta to her father.
Kanos hunted Carivus down and executed him as a traitor to the Empire. (CE2)

Carosi XII
this cool world was the twelfth planet in the Carosus System, a frozen, ice-covered rock just barely showing signs of life. Then the
Carosi star began to expand into a red giant. The gradual increase in surface temperature has turned Carosi XII into a habitable world,
now the seventh planet in the system. The metling ice has formed the Avuae Sea, which is now teaming with life. It is the current
homeworld of the Carosites, who fled Carosi IV. The Carosites who now live there are ardent supporters of the New Republic. The
planet is girded by the Eurae Mountains. Its average day lasts 30 standard hours, and its year encompasses 400 local days. One of the
primary economic forces on the planet is tourism, with visitors from across the galaxy coming to partake of the pleasure domes found
there. (PG2, POT)
Carosite
an alien race once native to the planet Carosi IV. When the star Carosi expanded from a normal orange star to a red giant, the
Carosites fled Carosi IV for Carosi XII. They are a bidepal, humanoid race. Carosites are tall and thin, with unusually long necks. They
are covered with a fine coat of fur, and have long snouts and dark eyes. The lifespan of a Carosite about 120 local years. The Carosites
have a unique, five-fingered hand that has two opposable digits on either side of the hand. The flight from Carosi IV has left them
culturally disoirented, which meant they were easily coerced by the Empire. Since the Battle of Yavin, the Carosites have pledged their
support to the New Republic, and have become quite adept in the fields of medicine and mechanics. They also became the primary
trading partner of the Ebranite race. (COJ, PG2, GG12)

Cartann
this Adumari nation was one of the largest and strongest at the time when the New Republic encountered the planet. The perator of the
nation, Pekaelic ke Teldan, felt that he could speak for the entire planet during negotiations with the Republic and with the remnants of
the Empire, a belief which was endorsed by Tomer Darpen. However, this eventually led to a planetary civil war between Cartann and
the Yedagonian Confederacy, a brief struggle which was won by the Yedagons with the help of Wedge Antilles and his pilots. In the
wake of the battle, the perator abdicated his throne to his son, who vowed to help Adumar create a fair and representative world
government. (SOA)

Cartariun
this mad Devaronian male took control of the planet Malrev shortly after the Battle of Endor. Cartariun was part of a technical team
dispatched to Malrev to begin construction of an Imperial outpost on the orders of Emperor Palpatine himself. Palpatine had discovered
the Sith temple in the forests of the planet, and wanted to use the temple to augment his own powers. The base was abandoned after
the Battle of Endor, but Cartariun remained behind and began studying the ways of the Dark Side of the Force. He eventually learned
how to control the minds of the Irrukiine, and trained them in elaborate wargames driven only by the power of his mind. When Rogue
Squadron landed on Malrev in search of the Starfaring, Cartariun managed to capture Wedge Antilles, but only until the Rogues began
battling the Irrukiine. While Cartariun was distracted with the battle, Wedge slipped away and rejoined his squadron. However, the
Sullustan Dllr Nep was drawn to Cartariun's power, which he both saw and heard as beautiful music. Many of the Rogues felt
Cartariun's power is some way, although most experienced a heightened set of emotions. Cartariun captured Dllr and used him has a
conduit for the power of the Dark Side. Dllr resisted, but was shot and killed by the power-hungry Bothan, Girov Dza'tey. Dza'tey, and
expert in the martial art of Jeswandi, then struggled with Cartariun until the Devaronian was kiled by his own Dark Side powers.

Carvin, Paltr
this Imperial General was a member of the Imperial Ruling Council which sprang up in the wake of Emperor Palpatine's death at Endor.
The council itself was ostensibly led by Ysanne Isard, especially after she engineered the destruction of Sate Pestage. He refused to
believe Isard when she claimed Pestage was a traitor who had been working with the New Republic to obtain control of Imperial worlds.
His concerns were overruled by other members of the council, who voted to remove Pestage. Once Pestage was removed from
Coruscant and imprisoned on Ciutric, Carvin was installed as the leader of the Imperial council. A gray-haired man with hawk-like
features, Carvin was distinguished by his all-black eyes. His tenure as the leader of the Council was short-lived however, as Isard made
her play for control of the Empire shortly after Sate Pestage was executed on Ciutric by Delak Krennel. Isard had Carvin imprisoned at
the Lusankya facility, where he languished until his death. (XWMR)

this generic term was used to describe any repulsor-equipped droid used to broadcast images and/or sound to a remote location. (RP)
Castle Bocce
a luxurious hotel found on Tatooine, this edifice predated much of Tatooine's current human sttlements. During the later years of the
Old Republic, it was lovingly restored to its original beauty, and is now a major tourist attraction. It features a casino, high-class cuisine
and accommodations, and ten multi-species immersion pools. (RPG)
Castle Lands
this area of Alderaan's plains was at one time the home of the ancient killik race. They built large, complex cities out of the natural
elements around them. The killik died out ages ago, but their wonderful castles remained after them. The Alderaanians held the Castle
Lands in awe, and discovered eighteen unique groupings of structures that seemed to indicate eighteen periods of expansion in killik
history. The artists of Alderaan flocked to the Castle Lands to experience the natural beauty of the killik buildings, although one artist
took his inspiration too far. He painted a section of the Castle Lands with bright, chaotic patterns, but his work was quickly condemned
by the many Alderaanians who revered the killik structures. (ISU)
Catamite
this is a small, timid creature. (POT)
Catapult
a compact device which uses a lever arm and pulleys to cock the arm in place and let it go when disengaged. The arm has a basket,
into which can be loaded rocks or bombs, which are then hurled against an enemy. (BFE)
Catch
this was the nickname given by Gavin Darklighter to his gold and white R2 unit Jawaswag. The name Jawaswag meant that Gavin
believed any Jawa would love to steal the droid. However, when the droid was actually accosted by a group of Jawas, it thwarted their
attempts to steal it and actually injured on of them. From that point on, Gavin called it Toughcatch. For ease of use in combat, he
shortened the nickname to Catch. Like many R2 units still in service nearly twenty years after the Battle of Endor, Catch was upgraded
with the R2-Delta package. (DTO)
Catchment Arc
this was a vital piece of the Ssi-ruuvi entechment technology. The catchment arc was a piece of circuitry which could be attuned to the
internal magnetization of the subject under entechment. When a magnetic field was passed through the subject, it activated a magentic
solution in the subject’s nervous system and forced the subject’s life-energy to jump across the catchment arc and into a storage
battery. (TB, TBSB)
Cathacatin
this Paqwe was the last crewmember of the Mother’s Valkyrie to abandon the ship on Coruscant and flee back to Paqwepori, following
the disgrace of the ship at the hands of Nil Spaar. Cathacatin was a licensed breeder-keeper of toko birds. (TT)

Cathedral of Shade
this is the name given to the various temples and ruins used by the Kluuzot, deep in the Black Jungle of Krann. (TSK)
Cathedral of Winds
a tall, ethereal castle on Vortex. It is made of thin crystal, built so that the rising hurricane winds would whistle through thousands of
holes, creating a musical experience that is never the same twice, called the Concert of the Winds. It was nearly destroyed when
Ackbar's sabotaged shuttle crashed into it, but the New Republic helped the Vors rebuild it. (DA, COTF)
Cathers
this Imperial Governor controlled Demnadi, but was unable to put a stop to the rebellious activity of the planet's underground. He called
for assistance in quelling a riot, but only got Major Fenris Sarhl to respond. (HR)

Momaw Nadon to reveal the secrets of Ithorian technology. (TME)
Cathorn
this Charon bio-construct was created from a large, cat-like creature which lived on the Charon homeworld. The original creature had
strange armor-like skin, a feature which was transferred to the cathorn. In addition to its armor plating, the cathorn also had the spiked
tail of an Ithorian barbed flyer grafted to its body. The barbed flyer was captured from a starship lost in Otherspace. Like most Charon
constructs, the cathorn has incredible leaping ability. (OS)

Cattena Squadron
Brenn and Dellis Tantor shadowed this stormtrooper squadron for several months before they were made "honorary" members of the
team. The original members bristled at this unorthodox appointment, and never fully accepted the brothers. However, after being
dispatched to Kalaan to subdue a rebellious cell, the squadron's commanding officer and Dellis Tantor were killed in battle. Brenn
Tantor was promoted to Lieutenant in the field, and given command of Cattena Squadron. (FC)
Cauldron Nebula
a nebula of specific gases that were mined for use by the inhabitants of Eol Sha for a short time. Later, the hiding place of Daala's
following her run-in with the Doole's Kessel Navy. The nebula is the result of seven nearby stars all going supernova at about the same
time. (JS, DA, SA)

Cavaaks
this independent scout had met up with a few too many hostile alien races in his time. (GG8)
Cave Crawler
this is another name for the keejin. (COG)
Caveel, Spinda
this rogue scientist was known for his unusual experiments. He was best known for stealing the ideas of others and modifying them for
his own use. He set up a base on the planet Murninkam, far from prying eyes. Shortly after the Battle of Endor, Caveel stole the droid
AOI-C – also known as Doc – from Massad Thrumble. He hoped to use the droid’s abilities to create an army of warrior-droids in order
to subdue his enemies and gather control of the criminal underworld. However, his plans were thwarted when Guri – at the request of
Trumble – immobilized the Pike sisters and rescued Doc. Thrumble didn’t give up, and developed a new plan that involved the Pike
Sisters capturing Doc and Guri’s head, then using the parts to build a better automata. They tracked Guri back to Hurd’s Moon, but
were caught in the cross-fire between Savan’s forces, Alliance forces, and Thrumble’s improved defenses. The Pike sisters backed out
of the deal, but Caveel threatened to kill them. As he tried to shoot them, the Pike sisters drew their weapons faster. Caveel was shot
and killed. (SEE)
Caver
this creature is native to the planet Glottal. Its eggs are eaten by the Glottalphibs. (TNR)
Caves of Corips
this natural wonder was a huge series of underground caverns and tunnels. Grand Moff Tarkin once likened the interior of the first
Death Star to these caves. (DSTC)
Caves of Eleuabad
located in the porous rock below the surface of Naboo, this watery system of caves was notorious for its population of sando aqua
monsters. It was located just outside the city of Theed. (IWE1)
Caves of Masposhani
Beldorion was placed deep in these underground caverns without light, during his Jedi training. The exercise was designed to force
young students to rely on the Force, rather than sight, in order to find their way out. (POT)
Cavrilhu Pirates
a group of marauders who wreaked havoc in the Amorris system. They were led by Captain Zothip, who manages their operations from
the Void Cutter. They maintained several bases in the area, including a base deep in the Kauron asteroid belt. This base was
compromised and abandoned about ten years after the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn, when Luke Skywalker went in search of the
clones being used byZothip. (DFR, DFRSB, SOP)
Cavv, Cryle
this man was in his late forties at the time of the Battle of Hoth. Known as an accomplished thief, Cavv supposedly studied the use of
the Force under the Jedi Master Yoda. He was also a member of the Alliance, and a personal friend of Airen Cracken, having served
under Cracken during the early years of the Galactic Civil War as a member of Cracken's Crew. A native of Ryvellia, Cryle and his team
returned to the planet shortly after it was destroyed by the Empire. Cavv lost most of his family, except for his nephew, Sienn Sconn. It
was Cavv, drawing from Yoda’s teachings, who spent a great deal of time with Sconn. Cavv’s lessons to Sconn included keeping
Sconn’s thoughts on the present and the job at hand, rather than dreaming about the future. Cracken later called on Cavv to help
extract Rivoche Tarkin from Imperial-held space, with the assistance of Quillin Arkell. (SWJ9, SWJ12)
Cavv, Rannah
this young woman was Cryle Cavv's daughter. She and her mother, Tascin, were killed when the Empire attacked Ryvellia, shortly
before the Battle of Hoth. (SWJ12)
Cavv, Tascin
this woman was Cryle Cavv's wife. She and their daughter Rannah were killed when the Empire attacked Ryvellia, shortly before the
Battle of Hoth. (SWJ12)
CAVw PK-10
see CAVw PX-10. (HR)
CAVw PX-10
Nen-Carvon's compact assault vehicle (CAV), the PX-10 was built for the Empire to help extend its domination without spreading its
manpower too thin. With the PX-10, a single stormtrooper can operate with the firepower of an entire squad. Like the HAVw A5 heavy
ground assault vehicle, the PX-10 doesn't have repulsorlifts to move it about. Instead, it relies on two heavy-duty treads driven by five
pairs of wheels. The PX-10 is designed to give a single trooper enough firepower to control a large territory. The primary rule of combat
for this trooper is to stay within the vehicle; it's that powerful. (DFR, ISB)
Cawa
this Quarren was an expert in the science of water purification, and was a member of the team assembled by the New Republic to help
restore the natural environment of the planet Duro. The work took place at the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, so
the New Republic had brokeered a deal with the Duros High House in which refugees were allowed to live on the surface in contained
domes. The refugees, in return for their lodgings, were assigned specific tasks to help the assembled scientists in their work. Cawa was
continually at odds with Sidris Kolb, as the meteorologist’s cloud-seeding program brought acid rain and other particulates back into the
water supply, inadvertently sabotaging Cawa’s own work. (BP)
Cay's Dream
this starship was owned by Ulic Qel-Droma several years after the Great Sith War. Named for the brother he killed while under the spell
of the Dark Side energies of the Sith, Cay's Dream took Ulic back to Yavin 4 to view the devastation there. (TSW)
Cayble, Tolamyn
this Imperial Security agent patrolled the Elrood Sector during the height of the New Order. He was responsible for the capture of
Shondra Del, shortly after the Battle of Yavin, an action which was capable because Cayble had obtained information from his vast
network of informants and spies. However, he often relied too heavily on the information he received, and was often misled by false
information provided by the Friends of Paran. After Del escaped from the Arena of Games on Derilyn, Cayble spent every effort trying
to recapture her and bring down the resistance in Elrood Sector. (OE)
Cayr, Telsij
this blond-haired woman served as a Y-Wing pilot under the command of Horton Salm, during the initial strikes by the New Republic
against the planet of Brentaal. She was shot down by Soontir Fel while trying to herd off the transport ships evacuating Imperials from
the planet, but she was rescued and treated. However, her gunner, Kin Kian, was killed in the crash. Cayr suffered the partial loss of
her left leg, and needed her left eye replaced with a cybernetic implant, but she vowed to return to her duties as a pilot. When she
learned that Fel had joined the New Republic, she was initially upset, but she soon realized that anybody who joined the Republic was
a comrade. She told Fel personally that she would fly with him, if given the chance. (XWES, XWMR)
Caz Ocean
this is one of the two major bodies of water found on Lazerian IV. (TSK)
Cazne'olan
this Twi'lek was one of the leaders of the Olan clan. A corpulent male, he was a contemporary of Nawara Ven and Koh'shak, but wasn't
quite as obese as Koh'shak. He despised what his relative Firith Olan had become, but was not above forcing Wedge Antilles to battle
Sixtus Quin and Septaas for information on Firith’s whereabouts during the search for Eidolon Base. However, Cazne’olan showed that
he believed crime didn’t pay - either for Firith or the Empire - by staging the battle in a virtual world, in which all parties were consumed
in a firestorm. (XWBT, KT)
CB-2B
a series of maintenance droids. (CCC)
CB-99
an old, battered, cylindrical droid which Jabba the Hutt used to store his will, just before he died. He was hidden in a secret room that
only Jabba and his father, Zorba, knew about. (ZHR)
CBX-9
this hybrid protocol droid was created by T'nun Bdu from a Merendata head and a Cybot Galactica body. Although equipped with an
AA-1 Verbobrain and a TranLang III communications module, the interaction of the Merendata and Cybot Galactica components results
in a herky-jerky motion. Despite this, CBX-9 is a sturdy, agile, and efficient droid used by Bdu as his primary interface to the galaxy. It is
rumored that CBX-9 - which has a female personality - has a great deal of influence in Bdu's decisions. (JASB)
CC-Y
an anti-radar defense unit built by Forbes. It removes a ship from another ship's radar scans, making it invisible. (MMY)
CC-7700
this older Corellian Engineering Corporation frigate was, in many respects, the predecessor tot he Corellian Gunship. The ship was
lightly armed, but the CC-7700 was not meant to be a battle ship. Instead, it was designed to be a platform for a gravity well projector,
with a mission profile similar to the Imperial Interdictor cruiser. (REB)
CC-9600
this Corellian Engineering Corporation warship was based on the earlier successes of the CC-7700 series, although the CC-9600
frigate was more compact and more heavily armed. The CC-9600 was designed for direct combat, with upgraded weaponry and
shielding, and enough cargo and passenger space to transport two full regiments of troops. (REB)
CCIR

this large, green, monocular construction droid helped rescue Smiley, after it had been infected with Master Zorneth's caretaker virus.
(DRO)
CE-2
this was a model of light freighter produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. It was basically an experiment at marrying a light
freighter configuration to move large cargo pods. The CE-2 measured 100 meters in length, and required a pilot and co-pilot to operate.
The CE-2 was capable of transporting up to four passengers and 50,000 metric tons of cargo, and was unarmed. (SESB, PP)
CE-3K
a servant droid owned by Luke Skywalker, CE-3K accompanied Luke aboard the Jedi Explorer. CE-3K is a tall, humanoid droid. This is
a reference to Steven Speilburg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind. (DE2)
Ceasing-To-Be
this was a term used by some higher-level droids to describe the death of an organic being. Most droids had no concept of death, other
than a memory wipe, and couldn't understand how it affected organic beings. (HT)

life on one of its planets. (CPL)
Cedrian Terrace
this upscale restaurant was located on the planet Bothawui. (SESB)
Ceel
this Gungan General was in command of the entire Gungan army, and reported directly to Boss Nass. During the Battle of Naboo, Ceel
was forced to defer to Boss Nass’ wish that Jar Jar Binks be also named as a General, but would not let the bumbling Gungan hold any
real duties. Ceel and his officers devised the plan of attack that had the Gungans draw out and detain the Trade Federation’s droid
army, while allowing Queen Amidala and her small force to infiltrate the city of Theed and capture Nute Gunray and Rune Haako. The
battle waged on in an even sort of match until the droid army managed to knock out the heavy Gungan shields. At this point, Ceel
ordered a full retreat, hoping to regroup his forces and attack again. However, the droid army swept over them and prevented a full
retreat. The Gungans were saved when nine-year-old Anakin Skywalker and Bravo Squadron destroyed the Neimoidian droid control
ship, rendering their immense battle force inoperative. (TPM)
Ceezva
this Teltior female was known to have bluffed her way into a sabacc match against the Archduke Monlo of the Dentamma Nebula, then
won the rights to the entire Unnipar System. Rumor had it that she had just 500 credits to her name at the start of the match. (AE)
Cejansij
this planet, the primary world of the Cejansij System, is famous for the dwellings carved into its canyon-covered sruface. (SOP)
Cekbar
this was one of the six major continents found on the planet Celanon. Celanon City was located on its western coast. (PG1)
Cel'Con
this continent, located on the planet Mutanda, was connected to A'Sako by a thin bridge of land. (PG1)
Celador Sash
this twin-hulled transport ship was donated to Luke Skywalker’s Jedi praxeum by a grateful trader. Decades before, Obi-Wan Kenobi
had saved the trader’s family, but he couldn’t repay the favor after the Emperor nearly exterminated the Jedi. With the advent of the
New Republic, the outdated ship found its way to Yavin 4 and Skywalker. (JAL)
Celanite
this was the name used by the Nalroni who lived in Celanon City. (PG1)
Celanon
this planet was the site of an Imperial spaceport in the Outer Rim. It is the homeworld of the Nalroni race, whose economic sense has
propelled Celanon to the foremost position along the Celanon Trade Spur. Nearly every merchant on the planet was a member of some
form of guild or consortium, which allowed them to monitor their pricing strategies and adjust them quickly. The guild buildings were off-
limits to non-members, and especially non-Nalroni. The Nalroni went underground when Palpatine initiated the New Order, and have
become even more shrewd business-beings. It has been said that if it exists, it can be found on Celanon. The average day on Celanon
lasts 32 standard hours. A Celanon year lasts 387 local days. The planet's surface was covered with agricultural plains broken by a few
forests and urban areas. (COJ, XW, PG1)
Celanon City
located on the planet Celanon, Celanon City was a commercial hub for the Outer Rim Territories. Located on the Cekbar continent,
Celanon City was a sprawling metropolis which catered to the whims of every conceivable being. A free trader was considered a rank
amateur until they had cut a deal in Celanon City. (XW, PG1)

Celchu, Mia
Tycho Celchu’s sister, she was killed on Alderaan when the first Death Star destroyed the planet. (XWBT)
Celchu, Skoloc
Tycho Celchu's brother, Skoloc was killed when the Death Star destroyed Alderaan. He was a fan of holovids which involved the Jedi
Knights. (BW)
Celchu, Tycho
Celchu was a graduate of the Imperial Naval Academy, even though he was a native of Alderaan. He was engaged to a woman named
Mia who, along with most of Celchu's family, was killed when the Death Star destroyed the planet. Note that Mia is the name given in
the first series of X-Wing: Rogue Squadron comics, although the X-Wing novels name her as Nyiestra. Tycho was calling home on his
twenty-first birthday, and regarded the loss of transmission to be a simple glitch. After learning the truth about this atrocious act, Celchu
left Imperial service and defected to the Alliance. He became a veteran of the Battle of Hoth, he flew an A-Wing in the Battle of Endor,
and participated in the Battle of Bakura. His allegiance, though, was constantly questioned by the ranking officers in the New Republic,
although the fighter pilots never waivered in their support of him. He was under constant surveillance by the New Republic, because of
his ability to escape from Imperial capture time and time again. He showed an innate ability to pilot a TIE Fighter, which also didn't
endear him to the higher-ups. It did, though, bring a level of respect among other pilots. Tycho assisted the Rogues and infiltrated the
Imperial ranks on Cilpar. He also participated in the Rogues' mission to Mrlsst, but was witnessed killing the controllers of the Phantom
cloaking device and stealing its plans. The tape turned out to be a clever fake designed to discredit the Rogues and secure the
Phantom device for the Empire. Once the Phantom was proven to be a smokescreen, Tycho was freed from any guilt in the matter. He
later fell in love with Winter, during the recovery of the Eidolon on Tatooine. He was later chosen to fly the initial scanning runs of the
planet Coruscant, flying a stolen Imperial craft in a series of sensor runs in an effort to assess the planet's defenses. He was captured
by the Empire and sent to Lusankya, where he was allowed to remember his time there. He was then sent to Akrit'tar for three months
before escaping and returning to the Republic. This time was secretly removed from his Republic records, further increasing the distrust
among those members of the Command structure who weren't privy to the Coruscant mission. He later a member of Rogue Squadron
following the Battle of Endor, but was not allowed to pilot a starfighter or any ship with weapons. Unknown to Tycho, Ysanne Isard had
implanted him with a hidden codephrase that activated subliminal programming, making him an extremely effective although unwilling
spy. The fact that he remembered his time on Lusankya made him different enough from other survivors that it went unnoticed until
Rogue Squadron infiltrated Coruscant. Shortly before the attack on Coruscant, Celchu was believed dead on Noquivzor. He suddenly
reappeared, and helped the Rogues get onto the planet. There, Corran Horn supposedly witnessed Tycho meeting with Kirtan Loor,
when Celchu was actually meeting with Lai Nootka. The circumstantial evidence, coupled with Horn's disappearance, left Tycho in
custody for Horn's murder. He was certain to be convicted of the crime until Horn escaped from Lusankya and positively identified the
true traitor in the Rogue Squadron as Erisi D'larit. Tycho eventually fell in love with Winter, partly because she was near him more often,
but mostly because of their shared Alderaanian background. When the squadron resigned its commissioned with the New Republic,
Tycho chose to paint his X-Wing in the colors of the Alderaan Guard unit that maintained order in his home town. Tycho eventually
became one of the squadron's leaders, especially during the time Wedge formed and developed Wraith Squadron. After Wedge was
promoted to General and Tycho was promoted to Colonel, Wedge relinquished day-to-day control of the Rogues to Tycho. Tycho
remained as Commander of the Rogues for several years before ceding command to Gavin Darklighter. Tycho retired shortly after
Wedge Antilles, although both offered assistance to Gavin during the Yuuzhan Vong crisis. (XWRS, XWN, WG, KT, XWPA, XWBT,

this is the Kitonak name for the period of rain which arrives in the Kurdan Desert every ten years. As rivers form, the Kitonaks plunge
themselves into the water and begin the Dance of Love. During this dance, the Kitonaks remain in the temporaty rivers and drift
downstream wherever the water takes them. (GG4)
Celestial
this Alliance transport ship was captained by Alain Gryphon when it disappeared from known space. The Celestial was transporting
prisoners to an Alliance penal colony when its captives, including Bane Nothos and Grand Moff Ravik, broke free and took control of the
ship. The Imperials, in their attempt to gain control, caused a power surge to flood the ship, disabling the hyperdrive. Gryphon tried to
foil Nothos’ plans by initiating a hyperspace jump despite the damage, and the ship was suddenly launched into Otherspace. There, it
was captured by the Charon and attached to the huge ship, the Desolate. (OS)

this Ocsinin female was known as an accomplished martial artist. She was skilled in a variety of forms of sword combat, including
Teelar and Kartranin. She grew up on Saclas, raising pet slimes in order to earn enough credits to buy passage to the Mid Rim. Once
offworld, she found employment with the Zuliria Museum of Antiquities, where she was charged with maintaining the many displays and
properties of the museum. While working at the museum, Cene met Ther-das, who recognized her skills and asked her to join the
Zulirian Swordmasters. While with the Swordmasters, she earned the respect of Mlatar Than Gra, who hand-forged her signature
weapon, the Soknar. (AIR)

Centerpoint Party
formed of rebellious Corellians and a group of New Republic archaeologists who were forcibly removed from Centerpoint Station during
the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, this quasi-political faction demanded that the Corellian System be given five votes in the New
Republic Senate, instead of just one. Their justification was taken from the beliefs of the Sacorrian Triad, and was based on the unusual
nature of the Corellian System. Since all five planets were life-sustaining worlds drawn to the star Corell by the planetary repulsor
onboard Centerpoint Station, the Centerpoint Party argued that each planet should have unique representation in the Senate. In this
way, the System would have five votes, and the Centerpoint Party hoped to use them to stop the New Republic from commandeering
Centerpoint Station for use as a weapon against the Yuuzhan Vong. In the aftermath of the Battle of Fondor, the Centerpoint Party
garnered more and more favor in the Corellian Sector. (JE, BP)
Centerpoint Station
a spaceport located in the exact center of mass (barycenter) between Talus and Tralus in the Corellian System. It is constructed of a
100 kilometer sphere in the middle of two, 150-kilometer rods. The entire station appears to predate antigrav units, since it spins on its
longest axis to provide gravity. This resulted in a constant "day" which lasted about 12 hours. The "year" on the station equalled the
392-day orbit of Talus and Tralus. Gravity on the station is virtually non-existent at the very center of Hollowtown, and gets stronger
near the outer hull. When the New Republic managed to penetrate the interdiction field surrounding Corellia, following Thrackan
Sal-Solo's rise to power, they found that the center of the field was located on the station. The central sphere contains a series of inner
sections, called shells, that surround the huge open area known as Hollowtown. In the center of Hollowtown is the Glowpoint. Lando
Calrissian later discovers that the station was built as a kind of hyperspatial tractor beam, capable if drawing an entire planet through
hyperspace to the station's location. It was powered by drawing on the gravitic forces of Talus and Tralus. Many scientists and
historians have concluded that Centerpoint Station predates even the Corellian System of planets, as it was the primary tool used to
place the planets in their current orbits from far-flung locations. Lando later discovers that the station, by reorienting itself, can be
directed to pulse its energy at the core of a star, causing it to explode. Thus, Centerpoint Station was revealed as the weapon used in
the Starbuster plot. The Station supported a "native" population of 540,000 beings, most of them having migrated from Talus and/or
Tralus.
After the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, the New Republic Defense Force began making plans to reactivate Centerpoint Station,
hoping to harness its energy as a weapon and use it to defeat the aliens. However, the station’s operational controls had attuned
themselves to the life-energy of Anakin Solo, who had helped shut down the weapon during the Corellian Crisis years before. Anakain
agreed to try to reactivate the station, but refused to fire it after arguing with his brother, Jacen. Thrackan Sal-Solo, who had been part
of the team trying to reactivate the station, took the shot himself. The blast was nearly perfect, taking out a large portion of the Yuuzhan
Vong fleet at Fondor. However, the blast also destroyed three-quarters of the Hapan fleet at Fondor, and skimmed both Fondor and
one of its moons. Afterward, when Anakin traveled to Duro, the station rendered itself inoperable again. (AC, AS, SC, CTD, JE, BP)
Central Avenue

Ceok Oruo’cya
this Bothan was the First Secretary of the Combined Clans during the years leading up to the revelation of the Caamas Document. He
tried to prevent Leia Organa-Solo from reviewing the Bothans’ financial situation, in light of the many problems being hidden by the
Bothan banks at the time. Leia was personally unable to view the documents, but Bothan law allowed C-3PO to view them. The primary
reason for this was that Leia had sold the droid to Borsk Fey’lya for just such a contingency. Oruo’cya had no choice but to let her see
the documents. (SOP)

Cerasi
this teenaged girl was a native of the planet Melida/Daan. She was also a member of The Young, and was the person who rescued
Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi from Wehutti and the Melida. She had close-cropped, copper-colored hair and green eyes. She was
the first of the children to forsake her parents and her heritage and live beneath the city of Zehava as a "free" being. Her courage
eventually inspired other youths, like Nield, and they eventually formed The Young as a way to fight back against their parents' bigotry.
Her mother was killed in a battle while conducting a sniper raid, and her brother was sent to work in a munitions factory. Her father was
the leader of the Melida militia, Wehutti, although she held to loyalty to him. She was stubborn to a fault, but was a brave fighter and
excellent scout. She agreed to help the two Jedi locate Tahl, while Nield and the other members of The Young created a diversion. Her
bravery allowed them to recover Tahl without bloodshed, and her strong will helped The Young defeat the elders and unify the
government of the planet. However, unlike Nield, she understood that her heritage could not simply be destroyed. She and Obi-Wan
petitioned Nield to stop destroying the Halls of Evidence, an action Nield vetoed but was overruled by the new council. Nield's
ignorance of the basic needs of Zehava began to splinter The Young, and his lack of control emboldened the elders of the city. Wehutti
and his band opposed the destruction of a Hall on Glory Street, and Nield fought back. In the ensuing firefight, Cerasi was shot and
killed. Her death further splintered the city of Zehava, since neither Nield nor Wehutti could determine who killed her and each balmed
the other as well as themselves. (DOD, UP)

Cerea
this temperate, forested world is the homeworld of the Cerean race. (PTR)
Cerean
this race of near-humans is native to the planet Cerea. In nearly all aspects, Cereans resemble humans. Their heads, however, are
much larger than a humans, with a cranial cavity that extends some 12-20 centimeters above their foreheads. This elongated skull is
topped with a flowing knot of hair. Contained within the skull is a binary brain, which gives the Cereans an advanced capacity for
thinking and meditation. The biological needs of a second brain are supported in the Cerean physiology by a second heart. As a race,
Cereans tended to be isolationists, preferring to live in a low-tech environment away from the bustle of the Old Republic. However, in
the last years of the Old Republic, the younger generation of Cereans decided that they wanted to have things that were commonplace
in the rest of the galaxy, life starships and speeder bikes. This led to a generational battle that was decided by the Jedi Ki-Adi-Mundi.
(PTR, IG1)
Cerebellitis
this is a debilitating condition of the brain that affects many human replica droids that are reprogrammed from their original creation.

Ch'no
this H'drachi seer adopted the infant Mora when her family was killed. Ch'no knew that she would later be revealed as the sole living
heir to the ruling house of M'haeli, but he kept that secret for a long time. His adoption of Mora put him at odds with the other H'drachi,
who saw the presence of humans on their planet as a scourge. Ch'no and Mora were the only two beings which could disrupt the
time-streams on M'haeli, which made travelling among other H'drachi without being seen nearly impossible. (ROC)
Ch'unkk
this Whiphid was a member of the Imperial Interim Ruling Council. Ch'unkk often had a protocol droid with him, for translation purposes.
He was a member of the inner clique formed by Norym Kim and Mahd Windcaller, and was quick to second the nomination of Xandel

Cha'wen'he
an unusual alien race native to the planet Wen'he'dinae, the Cha'wen'he resemble large, wingless birds. The simiarity ends there, for
they have three sinuous necks supporting three small heads. Two heads face forward, while the thrid faces the rear. All of the
creature's main sensory ograns are located in these heads. The heads can be retracted into the body, allowing the Cha'wen'he to
protect them in adverse conditions. Their hides are covered in overlapping rows of scale which can be raised to allow the underlying
skin to cool. They are highly intelligent, capable of solving complex puzzles and situations. However, the average Cha'wen'he is
nervous and excitable, a trait evolved from their constant vigilance against their homeworld's various predators. They live in flocks, and
have the rare ability to assume a species memory. The mother has the ability to pass on skills and memories to its offspring, and these
skills can awaken naturally over time. (GG12)

He persevered despite the loss of all his assets in Kee-Piru, and eventually spread beyond Calamari to other nearby systems. His
courier service was well-known, and it was an understatement to say that a message delivered by his agents never failed to arrive on
time. (HR)
Chad
1) the blue-white star that is the center of the Chad System (GG4)
2) primary planet in the Chad system, and fourth from the star Chad, it is the homeworld of the Chadra-Fan race. The planet's
environment is mainly based on water, with a few mountains and swamps thrown in for good measure. This makes the planet generally
inhospitable. During a great storm, the planet was rocked with tectonic shifting, and a series of Great Waves swept the life from the
swamps. This nearly destroyed the planet's primary native race, the Chadra-Fan, but they managed to survive in the mountains. The
Chadra-Fan histories document at least five Great Waves, the last of which struck just ten years before the Battle of Yavin. In Queen of
the Empire, Chad is a planet of rolling hills and farmland, and supports an extensive dairy industry. It has 9 moons which continually
pull tides in a complex swirl of currents around the planet. The average day on Chad lasts 20 standard hours, and its year
encompasses 380 local days. Note that Children of the Jedi denotes this world as Chad III. (SW, SCRE, QE, GG4, SWJ10)
Chad III

Chado's Pub
located in the city of Ariana, on Garos IV, this pub catered the Imperial forces which occupied the city after the Battle of Endor. Despite
this fact, or perhaps because of it, the underground resistance in Ariana used the pub as a place to exchange information. It was
destroyed by the explosion of a thermal detonator during the Imperial evacuation of Ariana. Jaalib Brandl claimed the blast was caused
by the rebellion, but Alex Winger later discovered that Brandl himself destroyed it. He had hoped to restore his standing with the
Empire. (SWJ12)
Chadra

Chadra-Fan
a race of small, humanoid rodents native to Chad, they have large ears, flat noses with four nostrils, and seven senses (sight, touch,
taste, sound, smell, infrared sight, chemoreceptive smell). Because of their two senses of smell, Chadra-Fam rely heavily on smell as a
guide and influence. The larger of their four nostrils detectes water-soluble odors, while the inner two nostrils contain specialized
chemoreceptors. Because of the large number of tidal waves that have torn Chadra-Fan society apart over the millennia, they have an
innate fear of death by drowning, and often the mere threat of drowning throws a Chadra-Fan into shock. They are a clan-based society
in which interclan marriages are welcomed. The wedded couple is then "added" to the smaller clan, thus increasing the clan's size.
Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina says the Chadra-Fan are from the planet Chadra. (SW, SCRE, TME, GG4)

Side of the Force. He and several other Jedi were investigating a distress signal from an Old Republic ship which had crashed on
Athiss. When they arrived, they encountered a creature spawned from the Dark Side. In battle, Chamma found himself greatly
overpowered by the Dark Side being, and felt that the Force had abandoned him when he suddenly used his anger to defeat the
beings. He fled to H'ratth and went into hiding, until the Miralukan Jedi Noab Hulis found him. Hulis explained that Chamma's other
companions were all killed by the Dark Side being, and that Chamma himself was cut off from the Force by the being's strength.
Chamma realized that the Force had not deserted him, but that he had abandoned the Force by hiding on H'ratth. Chamma agreed to
return to his training, and eventually achieved the rank of Jedi Master. He maintained his residence on H'ratth, but turned it into a Jedi

one of the few worlds that openly opposed Palpatine's New Order. When Mon Mothma defected from the New Order and formed the
Alliance, there was no immediate retaliation on Chandrila, although tariffs and taxes grew over the years until the inhabitants began
anticipating it. The birthrate among the native human population was lower than that of te rest of the galaxy, and so children were
considered very special to them. According to Rebellion, Chandrila is located in Sesswenna Sector. (DA, SWSB, TB, SWAJ, REB,

Charal
a Nightsister witch stranded on Endor, she was in league with Terak the Marauder. Charal thought Terak was trying to find a way to rule
the planet, and wanted to be part of it. She had long, black hair, and wore a tight-fitting set of armor. She also bore a magic ring that
allowed her to change her shape at will. She preferred to assume the shape of a raven and scout the forests, but also appeared as a
beautiful blond maiden in an effort to capture Cindel Towani. She overheard Cindel singing a song to Noa, a song that her mother used
to sing. Charal used the song to lure Cindel into her grasp, and took the child to Terak, in an effort to learn the secret of the crystal
oscillator. She rides a great black stallion. When Terak ordered the Marauders to recapture the crystal oscillator taken from them by
Cindel, he ordered Charal to assume her raven form. However, he also took her magic ring from her, preventing her from changing
back into a human and escaping from his power. Unfortunately for Charal, the ring was destroyed - along with Terak - when Wicket
destroyed the ring with a stone. Charal was stuck in raven form from then on. Charal was portrayed by Sian Phillips in Ewoks: The

2) this man was the leader of Charger's Irregulars. He and the group wandered the Outer Rim looking for beings who needed to hire a
group of mercenaries on short notice. Charger himself was a tightly-wound spring on the battlefield, shouting orders and running
between battle sites. During negotiations with potential employers, however, he was soft-spoken and polite. (PSG)

Chariot
this Imperial Victory-class Star Destroyer was deployed to the Minos Cluster during the Galactic Civil War. It was the largest ship in the
Imperial fleet there, but was sorely lacking in armament. Only a few dozen turbolasers and 68 concussion missile tubes were operable
at any given time, and the ship itself was constantly undergoing repairs to its aging hyperdrive. The Chariot was supported by an escort
carrier, an Imperial transport ship, and a pair of customs vessels. (GG6)

Charm Signing
developed on the planet Coruscant, charm signing is a communication method that uses hand signals. Confined to the wealthier
families and, later, those with close ties to the Imperial bureaucracy, charm singing involved a series of hand motions to convey a
message. In the aftermath of the Battle of Endor, charm signing was used almost exclusively by supporters of the New Order. Many of
the New Republic's supporters feared that it would simply become another way for beings to miscommunicate with each other. (SOC)
Charmath
site of a vast University dedicated to the study of the galaxy's history. Arhul Hextraphon did some research there into Yoda's
background for his work, Official History of the Rebellion, Volume One. After meeting with Yoda on Dagobah, Hextraphon wiped out all
records of Yoda's existence from the University's computer in order to preserve his anonymity and keep the hope for the Alliance alive.

Charnoq
this predatory reptile is native to the planet Maridun, and is the only creature feared by the Amanin race. The charnoq is known for its
climbing and leaping abilities. (GG12)
Charon
a race of arachnids that originated in a star system which was being consumed by a black hole within the realm known as Otherspace.
This proximity to a black hole, coupled with the destruction wrought by the hole gave rise to a Charon death cult. The cult was a small,
yet dangerous entity until the Charon developed the sublight drive. After that, the leaders of the cult began spreading their beliefs, and
were able to destroy life on their homeworld as well as nearby worlds. The destruction of all life - and eventually their own - will bring
the Charon in touch with the Void, which they believe is the natural progression of all beings. Under the direction of Ber’asco, who
believed himself to be the Final Prophet, the Charon wiped out all life in Otherspace, but still could not become one with the Void. When
the Alliance transport Celestial was deposited into Otherspace, the Charon realized that the abundance of life in realspace stood
between them and the Void. Their initial attempt at entering realspace, with the help of Bane Nothos and Grand Moff Ravik, failed when
Alliance agents attempted to rescue the crew of the Celestial and escaped back into realspace. (OS, GG4)
Charon Bioscientist
this is one of the three basic Charon subspecies. These arachnoids are smaller than their counterparts, the warriors, and have slower
reaction. However, they are much more agile than warriors. They are differentiated from the warriors by the brightly-colored cilia that
cover their forelegs. The bioscientists have perfected a method for creating biological constructs which lack free will and vitality of other
lifeforms. (OS)
Charon Starfighter
this small starship resembles a clump of rock maneuvering through space. The Charon designed these warships from the same
biotechnology which created the Desolate. These starfighters have a bulbous main section, with a pair of thick, rounded wings
extended outward. They are not capable of entering hyperspace. They are armed with a tri-laser pulse cannon, and have minimal
shielding. (OS)
Charon Warrior
this is one of the three Charon subspecies, along with the bioscientists and the Leader, Ber’asco. They are much more like spiders than
the others, with eigth legs which can be used as arms or legs. They often travel in an upright position, and their dark exoskeletons allow
them to move with stealth in darkened areas. It is the warrior class that has fervently joined the death cult, killing millions of beings on
the thousands of worlds in Otherspace. (OS)
Charros IV
this planet served as the base of operations for the Xi Char order. (X1)

Charza Kwinn
this male Priapulin was the starship captain of the Star Sea Flower, and was often employed by the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic
whenver they needed to be transported in relative anonymity. The Jedi considered him one of the best pilots in the galaxy, praise he
never failed to earn. Charza was entrusted by Thracia Cho Leem to carry Vergere to Zonama Sekot. A year later, Charza carried Obi-
Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker to the same planet, in an effort to discover her whereabouts. Charza flew his ship against the force
dispatched by Wilhuff Tarkin, who wanted to take control of Zonama Sekot and present it to Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. Charza and
his food-kin and helpers barely escaped, and managed to return to Coruscant. However, as Palpatine grew in power and the New
Order was established as the galactic government, Charza found himself getting less and less work from the Jedi. Following the Jedi
Purge, Charza was forced into working as a smuggler in order to make ends meet. (RP)
Chasa
this hulking man owned and operated a bar on the planet Dolis 3, which was the favored hangout of Banner Sumptor and his Imperial
friends during New Republic. (U)
Chasdy, Baydo
known simply as "Bay" to his friends, this man was known to be a gambler, con man, swindler, and cheat, not to mention grifter and liar.
He readily admitted that he was all these and more, and spent his life looking for new ways to gamble and new women to hit on. He
turned himself into a semi-respectable businessman when he purchased the HyperDive Cantina, located in Calamari’s Wildwater City,
but he rarely was seen at the establishment. He left the day-to-operations to Lliegis’Nevz, his Kian’thar bartender. Unknown to most
everyone, Chasdy was also an Alliance Special Operations foster agent, and his regular absence from the HyperDive was due mainly
to the rescue and placement of orphaned field agents. He used his personal ship, the Chaser, to move them around. (WSV)
Chase, Lowen
this New Republic starfighter pilot was captured in Kathol Sector by the forces of Moff Sarne, some two years after the Battle of Endor.
Chase was a natural leader and was highly qualified as a pilot and tactician. He was imprisoned at Q'Maere, and managed to thwart all
efforts at interrogation. Doctor Kraay's efforts to draw out information left Lowen in a near-schizophrenic state, and Lowen developed
paranoid and egomaniacal personalities. During his imprisonment, Lowen fell in love with Corla Unser, but both agreed to hold off on
forming a lasting relationship until they escaped. Their chance came when the crew of the FarStar put into Q'Maere to restock its food
stores. It was Lowen who led the crew to Keleman Ciro's cell, and then helped foment a prison riot which allowed the prisoners and the
FarStar's crew to escape from Doctor Kraay. He joined the crew of the FarStar, initially proving to be a leader to the prisoners rescued
from Q'Maere. However, his "treatments" while at Q'Maere soon caught up with him, and he became more and more paranoid. He
argued constantly with Captain Adrimetrum, and Chase's mental instability grew deeper. When Captain Adrimetrum promoted Scoryn
ahead of Chase, his mind snapped and he ordered a full mutiny of the crew and prisoners. The mutiny was successful, but Chase was
eventually captured and forced to stand down. Captain Adrimetrum remanded him to the ship's medical facilities in an effort to
rehabilitate his mind. (KR)
Chaser
this gorset was a pet of Denel Moonrunner. (SWJ13)
Chaser
this was the name of Baydo Chasdy's modified YT-1300 transport ship. Bay had the ready section removed in order to mount huge
triple-engine power plant, then added a pair of curved plates to the upper hull of the ship, giving an organic appearance. The cockpit of
the Chaser was mounted between the forward mandibles, and was round in shape. The ship was armed with a pair of turret-mounted
laser cannons and a heavy quad-laser cannon. (WSV)

Authority to franchise Stars' End for Imperial use, and worked to finialize details on the stasis booths and the overall Stars' End
blueprints. (CSA)
Chay Praysh
this Drach'nam ran a slaver consortium from a base on Torpris, during the early years of the New Republic. He was known for his
intense hatred of women, especially humans, and kept those that he captured in the slimepits of his base on Torpris. He preferred to be
called by the title "First Greatness," something that rankled his competitors. His subordinates were also known as Greatnesses, with
ordinals identifying their position within Praysh's organization. The slimepits housed thousands of krizar pupae, which Praysh grew and
nurtured for use in guarding his fortress. The women were forced to monitor the growth of the pupae and remove those which were
ready to hatch. Any form of disobediance was met with several lashings of a neuronic whip, the weapon of choice for Praysh's
Drach'nam guards. When Mara Jade came to Torpris in an effort to rescue Sansia Bardrin, Praysh had her enslaved like any other
human female. The Togorian female H'sishi claimed that Mara was a Uoti Corporate spy, and managed to gain an audience with
Praysh. In the midst of the discussion, H'sishi managed to return Mara's lightsaber to her, and Mara quickly eliminated Praysh's guards.
Praysh himself managed to escape the brief struggle. However, the luxury yacht Winning Gamble - which Sansia had been flying when
she was captured - contained detailed information on the defenses of Praysh' palace. This information was turned over to Luke
Skywalker and the New Republic, which raided the fortress and rescued the slaves. Praysh himself was imprisoned for his crimes.

Chenlambec
this silver-tipped brown Wookiee was one of the few who lived off the planet Kashyyyk during the New Order. Known as fierce and
unrelentling, he was a bounty hunter and tracker by trade who only took dead-or-alive assignments and usually brought back proof of
the deceased. Under this guise, many of the bounties which had ‘escaped’ him were secretted away on Alliance safeworlds. Chen - as
he was called by his friends - was referred to as “the Raging Wookiee” to other Hunters. Chenlambec worn a bandoleer of black reptile
skin, possibly as a warning to Trandoshans who would try to kill him for sport. Chenlambec was forced to flee Kashyyyk after he killed
an Imperial officer who was beating a Wookiee child. He late rbefriended Tinian I’att and became her Ng’rhr, taking her in as his
apprentice. The two worked well together, saving each other’s life many times while strengthening their friendship. They worked

Cherfer
this dim-witted yet vicious herd predator was native to the deserts of the planet Elom. Measuring up to 1.5 meters tall at the shoulder,
cherfers are born aggressive and continue to become meaner as they mature. Cherfers are equine in stature, with muscular bodies
covered by rough, brought-colored fur. Their heads are dominate by elongated snouts which are covered by a bony plate that continues
to grow as the cherfer ages. They hunt in groups known as vlaktors by the Elomin, taking down their prey in a swift stampede. (SOP,
COG)
Cherioer
this Wookiee was one of many free beings who were wanted by the Empire for rebellious activity. A 25,000-credit bounty was placed on
Cherioer's head, established because of his assistance to the Alliance throughout Zaric Sector during the Galactic Civil War. It was
believed that Cherioer agreed to transport Malindin Gevarak away from Imperial entanglements, further deepening the bounty on his
head. (GG10)
Cherishites
this was the name of a quasi-religious sect which settled the planet Rhamalai some 400 years before the Battle of Yavin. They believed
in living simply, in harmony with the planet. Subsequent generations established laws to protect those beliefs. The original 500 colonists
were considered dissidents of the Old Republic, and chose to settle only a small part of Rhamalai as an experiment in communal living.
After the advent of the New Order, they began working toward establishing a planetary government, but their efforts were cut short
when the Empire first established an outpost on the planet. Shortly afterward, Rhamalai was subjugated, and one male from each
family was conscripted into Imperial service. (SWJ13)
Chertyl Ruluwoor
this sterile female Selonian was sent to the Corellian Security Force for cross-training, as a sort of cultural exchange. She was in
CorSec about the time Corran Horn was serving. Chertyl was tall - nearly 2 meters or more - and had short, dark black fur that flashed
silvery-blue in the right light. When it came time for the annual Awards Ball, the Corellian humans had targetted her as the winner of
their annual pool. This pool chose the least-likely female to get a date for the ball, and "awarded" her to the winner of the pool. Corran
liked Chertyl, and secretly bought up all the pool tickets, claiming that she would steal the hearts of the other officers. Thus, he won the
pool, and got to take Chertyl to the Ball. He showed her the time of her life. Although she was infertile, she wasn't incapable, as Corran
found out following the Ball. They shared a wonderful evening in each others' arms, but the morning brought a startling revelation.
Chertyl's flesh actually began to burn from contact with Corran's acidic sweat, and Corran discovered he was allergic to her fur. They
were forced to cut off their physical relationship, but remained friends from then on. (WG)
Chesko, Tem
a cargo hauler whose ship was hit by an asteroid and disabled in the depths of space. He had no companionship for almost ten years
before discovering the droid MILL-247-EE onboard. She kept his mind off the woman he loved, and together they drifted through space
until they found a habitable planet. There, Chesko grew old and withered. MILL-247-EE kept him company, and when his heart gave
out, she donated her own mechanical heart to him. (SWG)
Chessa
this companion of Dirk Harkness was killed by Imperial stormtroopers on Kelada. The stormtroopers believed she was part of a rebel
cell, and opened fire on Chessa and her companions. Chessa and Dirk had formed a loving relationship over the years, and she often
sang songs for him. Her death hardened Dirk's resolve to punish the Empire, and he struck out at Imperial forces any way he could.
(SWJ1, TFNR)
Chev
this humanoid race is native to the planet Vinsoth, but have been subjugated by the Chevin. They resemble pale-skinned, violet-eyes
humans, but there are many physical differences. Chief among them is the fact the Chevs have two hearts. Also known as Chevin
Humanoids, Chevs have been known to live as long as 300 years. Chevin have taken to dying the short, coarse hair of their Chev
slaves to indicate ownership. They have nimble fingers and muscular bodies, and have the ability to learn complex technologies. The
Chev race has been enslaved for so long that most forget the reasons for their enslavement and simply accept it. However, recent
generations have begun looking for ways to defeat their Chevin masters. Some Chevs have left Vinsoth to pursue careers in business
elsewhere. These Chevs as respected in their circles, and seem confident. (GG12)
Chevappa
this clan of Wookiees supported Attichituck and Chewbacca. (C )
Chevin
a race of elephant-like humanoids from the planet Vinsoth. They have long heads sit at the end of a thick neck that curves downward,
allowing them to forage for food without having to bend over. Some have large facial tusks which impede their vocal abilities. Chevin
have thick, grey skin that allows them to tolerate a wide range of temperatures. They are adroit hunters, working in teams to corner their
prey. They have dominated the planet Vinsoth, and have enslaved the Chevs. Many Chevin villages wander across the surface of the
planet, migrating with the seasons to maintain food supplies and avoiding harsh weather. The Chevin leadership supported the New
Order during the reign of Emperor Palpatine. (GG12, ROTJ)
Chevram
this is the Snivvian ruling council. Members are elected to the Chevram every twelve Snivvian years, and a new executive ruler is
chosen from its ranks each year. (GG12)
Chewbacca
Born on Kashyyyk around 183 PE, Chewbacca (Chewie, for short) grew up without a great deal of human intervention. He excelled the
various hand-to-hand combat skills a Wookiee is taught, and also gained a great deal of mechanical aptitude. At the age of 80 (WEG
has him leaving at age 50, SCRE at 80), he left Kashyyyk to explore the stars. For 60 years (WEG says 140, SCRE says 60 years), he
answered to no one but himself, until the Empire declared Wookiees a slave commodity. Chewie captured as a rogue Wookiee and
imprisoned, where her heard about the Imperial mandate, and he spent the next 30 years doing hard labor in the Empire's slave camps.
Note that this assumes the Empire existed for more than 30 years, which is debatable. Chewie was doomed to a short life when he was
rescued by an Imperial Navy trainee named Han Solo. Chewie claimed a lifedebt to Han, and the two fled Imperial observation and
began living underground as smugglers. Chewie's physical strength and mechanical abilities made him a formidable partner, and he
and Han had many adventures during the 15 years prior to taking on Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Skywalker for passage to Alderaan.
Chewie's actions in rescuing Princess Leia and helping Han Solo give Luke some breathing room during the Battle of Yavin earned him
a commendation from the Alliance. His life-debt to Han Solo kept Chewie active. Following Han's need to repay Jabba the Hutt, he
continued to help the Alliance, becoming a part of the ground assault team that disabled the shield generator on Endor's Sanctuary
moon, allowing the Alliance to destroy the second Death Star. Following the formation of the New Republic and Han's resignation from
the Republic, Chewie and Han continued to assist the Republic as pilots, and Chewie was forced to expand his hnor family to include
Princess Leia following her marriage to Han Solo. Chewie's family continued to grow after the births of Jaina, Jacen, and Anakin Solo.
Chewie became a guardian of Jacen and Jaina after their return from Anoth, but the siblings eluded him and got lost in the underground
of Imperial City. Chewie and C-3PO managed to find them. On a vacation flight to Kessel with Han, Chewie and Han were shot down
over the planet and forced to work in the spice mines. Their escape led them to the Maw Installation, and a group of Wookiee slaves
still under Imperial domination. After convincing the Republic's leaders that they needed to establish an occupation of the Installation,
Chewie also lobbied for the Republic to rescue the enslaved Wookiees. He was granted permission to accompany the occupation team
and free the Wookiees. He was successful in rescuing the Wookiees, and helped get them out of the Installation before Daala
destroyed it. Even though Han retired from active duty to spend time with his family, Chewbacca never left his side. His life-debt to Han
had grown to encompass the entire Solo family. During the initial stages of Yuuzhan Vong invasion, Han, Anakin, and Chewbacca were
on Sernpidal, helping Lando Calrissian with a shipment. They were on the planet when the Yuuzhan Vong used a dovin basal to draw
the moon Dobido into an impact trajectory with Sernpidal, and were assisting with the evacuation effort when Anakin and Chewie were
trapped on stony outcropping. Recognizing that Dobido was going to crash any second, Chewbacca flung Anakin onto the landing ramp
of the Millennium Falcon, ensuring Anakin's survival. When Han realized Chewie didn't get onboard, he ordered Anakin to fly back while
he searched for Chewie. Anakin, torn between his love for Chewie and the cargo hold full of refugees, was forced to retreat before the
Falcon was destroyed. Chewbacca died on Sernpidal while giving the highest service to his life-debt. Han grieved for a long time before
he could come to grips with the realization that Anakin hadn't killed Chewie, but that the Wookiee had saved them all. Chewbacca was
portrayed by Peter Mayhew in all three Star Wars films. (SW, ESB, ROTJ, HTTE, VP)

their hands have a thick middle digit and two smaller, opposable fingers. Their feet are clawed , and all six “paws” are webbed for use in
swimming. Their pelts are thick, providing protection from the cold environment in which they exist. Generally white in coloration,
chiilaks tend darken in color as they age. They are omnivorous, and will eat just about anything they can catch. Hunting of chiilaks was
allowed under Imperial aw, but actually surviving the hunt and returning with a chiilak pelt was never a foregone conclusion. (COG)

disobey his father and help Luke, after the Jedi indicated that Mara was a good friend who needed his help. The young Qom Qae
continued to be invaluable, persuading the Qom Jha to help and helping Luke and Mara move around the compound by carrying them.
When he learned that the Threateners would leave the Qom Qae and Qom Jha alone if Luke and Mara left and the Chiss were ignored,
Child of Winds returned to his nesting to bring this news to his father. Hunter of Winds bargained with Eater of Fire Creepers, and the

Chine-kal hoped to attain favor with Tsavoong Lah and the Yuzhan Vong leadership by presenting the Jedi to them. However, the
Creche' was attacked at Kalarba by Kyp's Dozen, and Chine-kal was forced to flee. He headed for Fondor, hoping to meet up with the

Chiru
this species of insect was native to the planet Socorro, and was known for its vicious nature. Named with the Socorran word for
"deadly," the chiru was known to live in colonies of more than 100,000 individuals. They were attracted to vibrations, such as that of a
starhip repulsorlift engine, and would swarm an unsuspecting traveler who went out into the desert in an unmuffled landspeeder. Their
lifecycle was punctuated by the intense seasons experienced on Socorro. When the planet plunged into deep winter, huge portions of
the chiru population were killed in the cold. Those that survived came out of hibernation as summer approached. The increasing heat
triggered their mating instinct, and within months the colonies were fully populated again. (BSS)

Chiss
this race of blue-skinned humanoids was from an unspecified planet in the Unknown Regions. They are all well-muscled and tall, with
jet black hair and glowing red eyes. While their history has been marked by nearly continual warfare and conquest of other worlds, the
Chiss are generally not violent. They prefer to extend themselves only from a defensive posture, and viewed the idea of a pre-emptive
strike against an enemy as if it were murder. Within Chiss society, children matured very quickly, never truly having an adolescent
period before becoming adults. Many of the scientists at the Astrographic Survey Institute believed that the Chiss were among the first
races to come in contact with the Yuuzhan Vong, some fifty years before their initial invasion. They theorized that the Chiss understood
the Vong's military power, and began augmenting their own war machine to prepare to repel an invasion fleet. Unfortunately, the Chiss
remained isolated in the Unknown Regions, and wouldn't allow contact with the New Republic after the Battle of Ithor. (VOF, DTR, HT)

Chordak
this Rodian pirate is somewhat more cultured than his average relative, but still has a mean streak. Chordak did not use violence for the
thrill of violence, which was a departure from the Rodian norm. He plied the spacelanes in his freighter, the Oo-ta Goo-Ta, travelling
though the Minos Cluster and springing traps on unsuspecting transports. His usual plan of attack was to wait in a spaceport, searching
for a suitable target. He then placed an explosive charge on the transport, which he could remotely detonate. He then followed the
transport through hyperspace to its destination, where he would detonate the explosive. The crippled ship would then be easy prey.

centers had clear, transparisteel covers that allowed the Jedi to have a full view of the galaxy. The Chu'unthor served faithfully until it
was dispatched to the planet Dathomir, where the Jedi were in battle with the Force-wielding Nightsisters. After a truce was formed
between the two sides, the Chu'unthor - which held a good deal of Jedi lore and teachings - was abandoned by the Jedi, who left the

Chulku
this Ewok was supposedly obtained by Tycho Celchu on the planet Kidriff Five, during a raid on a warehouse full of exotic pets being
sold on the planet to supporters of Warlord Zsinj. Tycho recognized that a real, live Ewok would be needed to convince Zsinj of the
existence of Lieutenant Kettch in the Hawk-bat Independent Space Force, and felt that they could teach Chulku the basic responses
needed to fool the Warlord. When Wes Janson learned of Chulku, he felt that Wedge Antilles had been crazy to pull the stunt, but
agreed with the need to fool Zsinj. However, it was Janson himself who was being fooled. With the help of the other Wraiths, Wedge
arranged for Chulku to escape just as he and Wes were going to start working with him. In an effort to capture the runaway Ewok, Wes
tripped over some cleaning chemicals and doused himself. Wedge knew that the chemicals had been purposely spilled by Dia Passik,
but suggested that they strip and smear Ewok fool on themselves to hide the smell. Wes, completely fooled by the charade, did as
Wedge suggested. Wes thought he had captured Chulku, but discovered that he had found the stuffed Ewok doll Wedge used to
simulate Kettch. Then, Wedge called all the Wraiths to order, and Janson was left naked, covered with Ewok food, and holding the
stuffed Ewok. The entire operation had been Wedge's revenge for Wes's use of the stuffed Kettch in several escapades aimed at
Wedge himself. (SOC)

Chun, Bruck
this Jedi apprentice was a contemporary of Obi-Wan Kenobi, during the time they spent at the Jedi training center on Coruscant. Chun
was a typical bully, who believed that he had more aptitude in the Force that anyone, including young Obi-Wan. He nicknamed Obi-
Wan “Oafy-Wan” after he tripped and fell, bringing Chun down with him in the process. Bruck was two months younger than Obi-Wan,
and was easily distinguished by his ice-blue eyes and shocking white hair. Chun hoped to impress Qui-Gon Jinn, when the Jedi Master
arrived to take a new Padawan apprentice, and arranged for Obi-Wan to be sent to Bandomeer after claiming he started a fight. While
Obi-Wan was dispatched to the Agricultural Corps on Bandomeer, Qui-Gon didn’t choose a new Padawan, and Bruck was left on
Coruscant. Bruck continued to grow in skills, however. When Qiu-Gon returned from Melida/Daan with Tahl, he agreed to take part in
training exercises with the most advanced students. Bruck Chun managed to keep Qui-Gon off-guard for a long time during one battle
exercise, earning the Jedi Master's respect. However, in the end, Qiu-Gon's patience and experience defeated Bruck's youthful energy
and exuberance. However, despite his adherence to the Jedi code, Bruck was implicated in a series of thefts of Jedi artifacts. He was
discovered to be working with a non-Jedi accomplice by Qui-Gon and Tahl. His accomplice turned out to be Xanatos, who had
developed a business relationship with Bruck's father on Telos. During Xanatos' attempt to destroy the Jedi Temple and escape, Bruck
was forced to battle Obi-Wan to cover Xanatos' flight. During a lightsaber duel in the Room of a Thousand Fountains, Bruck slipped on

had died on Coruscant, Vox wholly supported Xanatos' plans to implement the Galactic Criminals Act. Vox was unaware of how
Xanatos had twisted the truth to his own ends, however. In the end, after Xanatos was exposed as a fraud and defeated, Chun was
thrown in jail for his part in the bankrolling of UniFy and Katharsis. (DOR)

came on the heels of the testimony of several of Skywalker’s young Jedi students, who had been imprisoned by the Diversity Alliance
against their will. Later, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Cilghal returned to the Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4 and took Tekli
on as an apprentice. During this time, Cilghal discovered that the fear of further invasion, coupled with the knowledge that the New
Republic was nearly powerless to stop the aliens, was creating a great deal of stress illness throughout the galaxy. (DA, COTF, TEP,

Cirrifog
this is the name given to the thick, pearlescent microcrystals found in the atmosphere of Monor II. Billions of these microcrystals can be
found in a single cubic meter of air, and breathing them is hazardous to most races because it shreds the delicate tissues of the lungs.
The native Sunesi have evolved the ability to breathe it, and it plays a large part in the change from young Sunesi to adulthood.
Juveniles of the species cannot survive long without it in their atmosphere, and require it in order to create the protective coccoons
used during their metamorphosize into adults. The cirrifog was found to be useful in certain applications during the early days of the
New Order, shortly after Eujustus Kline discovered it. The Empire began mining the microcrystals, and extracted so much of them that
the juvenile Sunesi were threatened. Agapos the Ninth spoke out against the Empire, and was condemned to death. (SWJ10)

Cloaking Device
the Empire devised the first working cloaking device just before the Battle of Endor. Note that this contradicts the Star Wars: Episode I -
Incredible Cross-Sections book, which indicates that Darth Maul's Sith Infiltrator had a cloaking system which employed stygium
crystals. However, its abilities were overshadowed by its cost, and it was never fully implemented. The one major drawback to the
original cloaking device was that it was unstable during hyperspacial travel. This fact was not known to Admiral Zaarin, who attempted
to steal a version for the Alliance. He took a cloaked CR90 corvette into hyperspace to escape Vice Admiral Thrawn but the cloaking
device ruptured and destroyed the corvette as it entered hyperspace. Several years after the Battle of Endor, Grand Admiral Thrawn
recovered the technology from Mount Tantiss and used it twice: once at the Battle of Sluis Van, to hide the contents of his false
freighter Narsisstue; and again when he mounted them on asteroids and set them loose in orbit around Coruscant. Up until this point,
the only feasible use of a cloaking device was on somewhat stationary objects. There were several limitations to using the device on a
starship, the foremost of which was that the cloaked ship was as blind to the outside world as the ship was to observation. This
presented a problem to early engineers and designers, but was overcome by the advent of the Imperial Computer Combat Predictor. It
didn’t alleviate the fact that the cloaked ship was blind, but tried allow it the opportunity to shoot down attacking craft. (HTTE, TLC, TIE,
SOP, X1)
CloakShape Fighter
developed by the old Kuat Systems Engineering company, the CS fighter was a slow, underpowered, but quite durable starfighter. A
few of them survived the Galactic Civil War, seeing duty in smuggler fleets. The CS Fighter was a simpled design, easily modified for
specific uses. Very few unmodified ships can be found. The CS could be modified in a number of ways, mainly with the addition of
Curich Engineering's rear wing and stabilizer conversion kit. This kit, which improved maneuverability and allowed the addition of a
hyperdrive sled, was so popular that many people forget it wasn't part of the original design. The ClaokShape fighter measured 15
meters in length, and was armed with a pair of laser cannons and two concussion missile launchers. (DE1, DESB, EGV)
Clodhopper
a race of herbivores native to the planet Naboo, these grasshopper-like creatures hate the water. The Naboo consider them pests,

this simian beast is recognizable by the hooting sound it makes when it calls to its companions. (TBH)
Cloud Bridge
this location on the planet Teyr is found on the western end of the Teyr Rift. It is also the last station on the southern spur of the Rift
Skyrail. It is one of the narrowest sections of the Rift, and is also one of the most spectacular. (SOL)
Cloud Car
small, atmospheric craft that are powered by repulsorlifts and ion engines. The best-known cloud cars are the Storm IV twin-pod
models built by Bespin Motors. These are the same types of cloud cars used by Lando Calrissian on Cloud City. (ESB, SWSB)
Cloud City
a tibanna gas mining colony in orbit over Bespin run by Lando Calrissian, Cloud City was originally built by Ecclessis Figg and the
fledgling Bespin Motors company. It is essentially a huge, saucer-shaped city floating in the Life Zone layer of Bespin's atmosphere,
some 60,000 kilometers from the planet's core. The saucer - an incredible sixteen kilometers in diameter - is kept stable via a long
repulsorlift unipod which hangs below the saucer. This configuration makes Cloud City seventeen kilometers in overall height. The
unipod keeps Cloud City afloat by using 3,6000 repulsorlift engines. There are 392 levels to Cloud City, and a surface-level concourse
at its top. Its location keeps it out of the mainstream of interplanetary commerce, but that allows it some necessary freedoms. It is
known for its productions of tibanna gas, as well as for its casinos and open-air plazas. Due to its small size, in relation to full-scale
mining operations, Cloud City was able to remain outside Imperial jurisdiction and separate from the Mining Guild. Lando Calrissian
won control of the outpost in a sabacc match, but continued the mining operations and realtive anonymity of the station. Note that
Galaxy of Fear 4: The Nightmare Machine claims that Lando won it shortly after the Battle of Yavin. However, when Darth Vader
learned that Luke Skywalker might go to the outpost to rescue his friends, the Empire took control of the city. After Luke was able to
escape from Vader, Vader left an Imperial garrison there. Grand Admiral Thrawn later used this garrison as a base of operations in his
war against the New Republic. The outpost was again freed of Imperial control following Thrawn's defeat, but Cloud City's reputation
had been forever tarnished. (ESB, HTTE, GG2, EGV, GOF4)
Cloud City Casino Sabacc
a Sabbac variation in which one card from each hand is selected for a spin-change, and the closest player to +/-23 or 0 wins the hand
and gets the difference in points. In this form, all wild cards are forfeit. (DA)
Cloud Crupa
a singing bird. (TFE)
Cloud Jumpers
these soliders are part of the Exocron Airfleet, and use repulsorlift jump packs similar to a rocket pack. However, the packs don't propel
the wearer as much as they allow the wearer to make incredible leaps of up to 200 meters at a time. (KO)
Cloud Police
the law enforcement agency protecting Cloud City. They are overseen by the Governor of Cloud City. Given the outpost's neutral
standing during the Galactic Civil War, the Cloud Police are also neutral, trying not to find fault with either the Empire or the Alliance.
(ZHR)
Cloud-Mother
an Ithroian herdship, it was best known for its hospitals and glass manufacturing plants. The ship was voted as the primary reception
site for New Republic representatives during the herd meet following the destruction of the Maw Installation. It boasted some of the best
guest facilities, as well as one of the largest herdship shuttleports. (COJ)
Cloudberry
a plant which has both blossoms and spikes. Each blossom becomes a sweet fruit, unless there are too many spikes; this makes the
fruit tiny and sour. (TB)
Cloudland Peaks
a tourist attraction on Selonia, Cloudland Peaks is actually a chain of five islands which rise out of the ocean so high that their tops
disappear in the clouds. (AC, CTD)

Club Prosperine
located on the continent of Kreesis, on Algara II, Club Prosperine is the planet's largest resort facility. Its simply screams luxury in all of
its appointments, which are exotic, entertaining, and expensive. (PG2)
Club Vortex
this dance club was located in the upper-class section of the planet Lianna, but went out of business shortly before the institution of the
New Order. The building remained vacant for a year before being purchased by Yin Vocta and Vector Technologies. It was soon
transformed in the Bantha Traxx restaurant and dance club. (WSV)
Cluster Plug
this power of power plug was used on pod racers. It employed a cluster of power sources to provide energy to the racer's engine. It was
a more efficient design than the rotary plug. (RAC)
Cluster Trap
designed by the New Republic, a cluster trap is a nondescript blister on the hull of a capital ship. Hidden inside the blister are any
number of high-powered concussion grenades. When starfighters are close enough, the capital ship's weapons crew can activate the
cluster trap, sending the grenades spewing into space. If done right, the grenades explode in the midst of the starfighters. (DFRSB)
Clustership
named for the grouping of yorik coral sections which comprised it, this Yuuzhan Vong starship was developed to house immature
yammosks as they grew. (JE)
Cluster2 Plug
this second-generation power plug was used on pod racers. It could nearly double the power output of the basic cluster plug. (RAC)
Clutch
New Republic fighter pilot slang for a Tri-fighter, named because of the way the three wings seem to clutch the ball-shaped cockpit. (IJ)
Clyngunn
this ZeHethbra was a major smuggling chief during the early years of the New Republic. Originally an athlete, Clyngunn was a
champion unarmed-combat expert who represented ZeHethbra in the Stratis Games on Hallrin IV. He held many records in the inter-
species Multi-Sentient Unarmed Combat Rounds. After leaving athletics, Clyngunn quickly became disenchanted with the relative
boredom of "real life." He bought his own ship and began running cargoes. He met up with Billey, and started running guns and spice.
When he was once boarded by a customs agent who discovered the true nature of his cargo, Clyngunn managed to evade arrest when
the agent realized that Clyngunn was a champion athlete. Clyngunn provided the agent with his autograph, and was set free. (DFR,

Cnorec
an Imperial Lord still holding onto dreams of the rebirth of the Empire. He was working under Hethrir to try and establish the Empire
Reborn, supprting Hethrir by purchasing slaves from the Firrerreo. Like many of his kind, Cnorec had managed to stockpile a large
amount of credits following the downfall of the Empire, and still maintained a decent income despite the New Republic's plans to cut
him off. He was killed by Hethrir just before Hethrir's death. Hethrir had seen that Cnorec was losing faith in the vision of the Empire
Reborn, and did not want them man in power any longer. (CS)

this signal was used by Jedi Master Yoda to alert the other Jedi Masters of trouble in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. (UP)
Code Grave
this Alliance signal indicated that a mission was to be aborted. (CSWEA)
Code Quasar
this transmission signal was generated by the Alliance, and provided to those pirate and privateer vessels who were working for the
Alliance. The Code Quasar signal, when verified against the active database of independent ships working for the Alliance, provided a
measure of security and autoanomy whenever a marauding vessel was encountered near Alliance-held space. (PP)

Codeq Santhananan
this being was a contact Dengar used many times. Based in Mos Eisley, on the planet Tatooine, Santhananan ran a private information
service. Beings could send and receive messages through Santhananan, always with discretion and confidentiality. However,
Santhanana was executed by a former customer, just inside the vestibule of the Mos Eisley Cantina. His business was picked up by an
untrustworthy Q’nithian aeropteryx. (MA)
Codex
1) this ancient Jedi artifact was created by the Cthol race. Resembling a small, metallic pyramid, the Codex was designed to measure
and manipulate the Force. It is a dull gold color, and is covered with mystic engravings and small crystal-studded patterns. When used
by a properly trained Jedi, the Codex glows slightly and hums. Among its many uses, the Codex can locate disturbances in the Force. It
can also augment a Jedi's ability to call upon and use the Force. Continued use of the Codex makes the user susceptible to the Dark
Side of the Force. When used, however, the Codex sends tremendous shock waves throught the Force. This is what first attracted the
Dark Jedi Halbret to it. When it was later found by Pann, the Codex had become brittle and easily damaged. (GMH)
2) this form of DarkStryder technology was discovered by the crew of the FarStar, hidden inside an unusual alien construct deep in the
Kathol Rift. In shape, the Codex is a small pyramid with a metallic surface. It was light in weight, and could be damaged by rough
handling or by being dropped. It enhanced the Force-sensitivity of its user. The Aing-Tii Monks were very interested in obtaining the
Codex, and trained Makezh to navigate the Rift in order to find it. They considered the alien construct and the Codex itself to be sacred
and untouchable to themselves, but Makezh was immune to their religious beliefs. (KR)
Codoran
this valuable metal was often used in jewelry. (SOP)
Codru Bat
a small, four-winged bat native to Munto Codru. (CS)
Codru-Ji
intelligent, humanoid natives of Munto Codru, the bipedal Codru-Ji race is characterized by their four arms. When immature, the
Codru-Ji take the form of a wyrwulf. This is a pupal stage for the Cordu-Ji, and they sleep in a prone position (as most dogs do). The
wyrwulf form can communicate through a series of barks and grunts. When the being is of sufficient age, the wyrwulf form cocoons
itself, and then metamorphs into a full-grown adult Codru-Ji. The adults must sleep upright, due to the changes brought about by the
formation of their four arms. Special slings have been developed to support the slumbering adults. The form of the Codru-Ji
communicates in a complex series of high-pitched whistles and sighs, although they are also able to speak in the low-range sounds of
most humanoid races. They are known for their political intrigues, abductions, and coups. They seem unable to operate in a simple
political environment, instead choosing to convolute their politics with various familiar affiliations. They are also recognized as the best
kidnappers in the galaxy, and have established a code of ethics for the kidnap and ransom of political opponents. (CS)

this bulk freighter was owned and operated by Beezrul Granf. (SWJ1)
Coldtime
this is the Gamorrean name for the winter season on the planet Gamorr. It is a harsh period of freezing temperatures and blowing
winds, and most Gamorreans remain indoors at all times. This forces the warlike males to soften a bit, and much of the courtship and
romance between the sexes occurs during coldtime. (SWJ14)
Colicoid
this is a species of chitinous, insect-like creatures which have a highly-developed level of technology. However, they are also incredibly
brutal as a species, and are known to barbarically stop any travellers through their system and eat them. They are extremely skilled in
the creation of autmatons, and were the primary developers of the destroyer droids used by the Trade Federation. These droids, known
as droidekas, resemble the Colicoid physiology, even mimicking the Colicoid ability to roll up into a ball and surprise their prey. The
Colicoid species is native to the planet Colla IV. (VD1, IG1)
Colla IV
this planet, located along the border of the Colonies Region and the Inner Rim, was the homeworld of the Colicoid species. (VD1,

Colla-Di
this series of caves and caverns were located on Arda-2. The entrance to the Colla-Di is hidden by the Great Torgur Falls. (CSWEA)
Collafa
this natural spice was used by poisoners, since its chemical make-up altered when it came into contact with certain cooking oils. The
resulting elements could cause mental instability in human eaters. (SESB)
Collision Shield
developed by Lando Calrissian and the technicians he employed at Lando's Folly, this shield system allowed starfighters running
through the asteroid belt to bounce off asteroids instead of crashing into them. The shield system included defensive arrays and
repulsors, all of which were monitored and maintained from a remote station above the asteroid belt. (VP)
Collo Fauale
Mirith Sinn's New Republic agents fled to a hidden base in this mountain pass, on the planet Phaeda, after being routed by Colonel

interview Belezaboth Ourn, after the Paqwe turned himself in to the Republic. (SOL, TT)
Collor Pondrat
manufacturers of racing engines. (X1)
Collus
one of the galaxy's most forward-thinking philosophers, Collus was responsible for the creation of Alderaan University. Collus served
the Old Republic as a sage and philosopher. He took his brightest students and formed the University in Aldera, which expanded as
various leaders built adjacent schools near Collus' central university. He believed that knowledge without application was wasted
knowledge, and that information gleaned from textbooks was inferior to information gained by direct experience. (ISU).
Colmar, Davaire
this human male was a Lieutenant with the Alliance. He had strong features that belied his quiet, extremely competant personality.
Before joining the Alliance, Colmar was a rising star in the Imperial Special Training Corps. As a member of the corps, he participated in
the Siege of Dalron IV, during which he received a severe head wound and was left to die. When he came to, he wandered the
countryside aimlessly, all the while reviewing the battle in his head. He came to the realization that the Empire had failed to protect its
own people, and he deserted the corps. He joined the Alliance on Dalron IV. (GG9)

a series of athletic events that are staged between the various colonies of the Roon System. (DCAR)
Colonies, The
this is the name given to the areas of the galaxy just outside outside the Core Worlds, which were settled during the early expansion
periods of the Old Republic. The Colonies eventually grew into industrial and metropolitan centers, but these were heavily raided during
the Emperor's New Order. During the early years of the New Republic, many of these worlds were freed from Imperial control and used
as launch points for the Republic's fight to regain Coruscant. (SWSB, EGP)
Colony Authority
this New Republic agency was a sister group of the Bureau of Scouting and Exploration Services, which was better known as the New
Republic Scout Service. The Colony Authority was responsible for setting up and supporting new settlements on remote planets. (GG8)
Colony Eight
one of the Ylesia slave and spice colonies, it was destroyed by Tuga SalPivo shortly before the Battle of Ylesia. (RD)
Colony Five
this Ylesia slave and spice colony was led by Pohtarza, shortly before the Battle of Ylesia. (RD)
Colony Four
this Ylesia colony was infiltrated by the Hyallp Noy Waglla, shortly before the Battle of Ylesia. (RD)
Colony Nine
the last of the Ylesian colonies to be built, it was still not operational when Jabba the Hutt sent Sniquux to infiltrate it. The Rodian laid a
series of traps for the t'landa Til there and then startled them into them. (RD)
Colony One
this was the primary spice-processing center on the planet Ylesia. The center was ostensibly the site of the religious order founded by
Teroenza, although the devoted followers were used as slave labor. The t’landa Til kept the slaves blissfully unaware of their slavery by
making them attend daily devotions at the Altar of Promises, where the creatures use their neck pouches to emit sonic vibrations that
affect the sensory areas of the slaves’ brains. The colony is located between the Mountains of the Exalted and Zoma Gawanga, and
was 147 kilometers away from Colony Two. It was here that the Alliance struck the first blows of the Battle of Ylesia, engaging Nova
Force in a brief firefight that left much of the mercenary group dead. (TPS, RD)
Colony Seven
this Ylesian slave and spice colony was infiltrated by Aiaks Fwa shortly before the Battle of Ylesia. (RD)
Colony Three
the third colony established by Teroenza on Ylesia, it was created after Han Solo and Bria Tharen nearly destroyed Colony One during
their escape. Bria and her band of freedom fighters returned to Colony Three, seeing that it was not as sercurely guarded as the first
two colonies, to rescue the enslaved pilgrims there. (THG)
Colony Two
the second of three planned false religious colonies established by the Hutts and the t’landa Til on Ylesia, it was here that Mrrov was
held in thrall until Muuurgh rescued her. Colony Two, sited on the northeastern edge of the Zoma Gawanga, was located 147
kilometers from Colony One, across the Gachoogai River and the Mountains of Faith, and was nearly identical in layout to Colony One.

Colton
1) a member of the support staff of the Royal House of Alderaan, Colton was the owner of C-3PO and R2-D2 during the early years of
Palpatine's rule as Emperor. He brought the two droids to one of Palpatine's balls, where C-3PO mistook Darth Vader for a GuardDroid.
Colton demoted C-3PO to preschool teaching duty for the offense. In the Star Wars novelization, it is inferred that Colton was the
Captain of the Tantive IV, although the the Star Wars film script, the Captain's name was Antilles. (SWN, EGC)
2) this New Republic Naval Ensign served aboard the FarStar during its travels through Kathol Sector. (KO)
3) this New Republic Lieutenant served as the weapons officer aboard the Home One, serving under Admiral Ackbar during the

ColuChem
this Bith chemical research group created the compound Anti-Corr 113. (SWJ9)
Columi
these aliens, native to the planet Columus, are a peaceful, non-agressive race with a vast intellect stored in their huge heads. One third
of their height, and most of their weight, is found in their heads, which are wreathed with throbbing blood vessels. The brain of the
Columi is divided into over 100 lobes, each dedicated to an independent function. The collection of intelligence has long-since rendered
their limbs useless, and they have to be transported in antigrav harnesses. The eyes of the Columi are capable of seeing in the entire
electromagnetic spectrum, and can "hear" by analyzing the frequency of sound and radio waves. Their technology centers on the use of
radio waves, generated by their immense brains. All Columi hardware is created to be activated and manipulated with radio waves.
They use droids and other machinery to perform their physical work. Being one of the first species to develop an advanced society and
technology, they were greatly dismayed to find the rest of the galaxy inhabitted by "barbarians." Also, the heaviness of standard gravity
was hard for the Columi to overcome, so off-world travel is kept to a minimum. Those Columi found off Columus are either scholars,
business leaders, or gamblers, and can be almost impossible to beat. They apparently freely joined the Empire, although mainly in
order to retain their isolation. (CPL, GG4)
Columni
this corporation developed highly-specialized droids brains for non-standard uses. (CRO)
Columus
this planet is the homeworld of the Columi race. It is a small world with a light gravitational field and very little tectonic movement. It is a

Comaren
a re-orientive drug. (COJ)
Comark, Amber
the daughter of Moff Jesco Comark, Amber was friends with a librarian in the Imperial archives during her early years. When the
librarian was exposed as an Alliance agent, Amber could only watch as the librarian was arrested and interrogated. The death of the
librarian was reported to Amber by her father, and only served to highlight the atrocities the Empire considered normal behavior. Amber
decided to assume the role played by the librarian - as the special agent known as Tigress - but she had neither the training nor the
contacts of the librarian. Her information was much less reliable, and Alliance Special Operations began to doubt Tigress’ loyalties.
When Amber discovered that her father was the mastermind behind the Death-Hunter project, she began filtering data about it to the
Alliance. She provided information on the use of Plexus courier droids, as well as hints of strange kidnappings, through her astromech
droid, R2-B4. She remained near the project, and was able to assist a group of Alliance agents in exposing it. She met them on
Bescane, after the loss of Cooper Dray, and they were led on a chase which ended on Zeta Zero Nine. It was there that the Alliance
agents, along with Lady Amber, defeated her father and eliminated the primary Death-Hunter development files. (SWJ9)
Comark, Jesco
this Imperial Moff was the creator of the Death-Hunter project. A native of the planet Chandrila, he was nonetheless easily swayed by
Senator Palpatine’s writings and speeches, and was one of the few Chandrilans who embraced the beliefs of the unassuming
Palpatine. When Palpatine instituted the New Order, he awarded Comark with the position of Imperial Governor of Chandrila despite
the protests of Mon Mothma. She lobbied that Comark had no political experience in governing a planet, and Comark eventually yielded
to her. He then took a position within Renik, and began diverting its resources into the Death-Hunter project. He was finally brought
down by Alliance agents at his secret base on Zeta Zero Nine, as a result of the information provided to the Alliance by his own
daughter, Amber. In a battle within his underwater base, the Alliance agents were able to free nearly all of the kidnapped humans who
were being used to create the Death-Hunter cyborgs. They destroyed the facility, and it was believed that Moff Comark perished in the
destruction. (SWJ9)
Combat
this is the traditional method of deciding disputes between the S’krrr and Rabaanite peoples. It was initially created some 6,300 years
before the Galactic Civil War, as a way for the two races to coexist in relative peace. Under the rules of Combat, the strongest warrior
from each planet is selected to battle the other in single combat. The battle takes places on the Combat Moon, and the two combatants
must fight to the death. The victor’s planet is declared the winner of the dispute. (SWJ9)
Combat Aquaspeeder
developed from the basic Incom T-47 airspeeder, this Hydrospeare Corporation design modified the airspeeder for use as an aquatic
attack craft. Unlike most Hydrospeare designs, however, this craft found use within the Alliance. This craft was armed with a turret-
mounted quad-laser cannon as well as a power harpoon. The cockpit was modified to allow for a second pilot, and the entire fuselage
was streamlined to give it better maneuverability underwater. (AIR)
Combat Arachnid
a twelve-legged insectoid native to the planet Carida, these crimson and maroon beasts had hard shells covered with needle-like
spines. Their outer shell is extremely hard, and they have piston-like jaws that devour their prey quickly and efficiently. They
communicate via a series of hypersonic transmissions. (TJP)
Combat Sense
a technique employed by the Jedi Knights, it allows a Jedi to focus most of their attention on the battle at hand. The Jedi sees enemies
as bright images, and can direct the flow of the battle while viewing enemy positioning. (SWSB)
Combined Clans
this is the governing body of the Bothan race. It is made up of the leaders of the various Bothan clans. They were responsible for all
aspects of Bothan life, including security and finance. They made a series of poor financial decisions following the Battle of Endor and
the formation of the New Republic, and suddenly found themselves in debt. A clever manipulation of financial data made it appear that
the Bothans were still in control of large sums of credits, but they were sorely impoverished at the time. This situation was exacerbated
by the revelations of the Caamas Document, when they could not make any form of restitution to the Caamasi without bankrupting
themselves and shaking up several major galactic stock exchanges. (SOP)
Come-up Flector
this was a backwater term for a person who patrolled a starport or other point of debarkation, searching for potential buyers of services

Comet Casino
a bar and restaurant located on Nar Shaddaa. (THG)
Comet Squadron
an A-Wing group serving the New Republic under General Crespin. (WS)
Comfan
this personal comfort device was used on the planet Adumar to keep oneself cool. It was a small, hemispherical device with a handle.
The flat side was crossed with vents, and the round side held the handle and an intake vent. A small motor drew air through the intake
and pushed it out through the vents. In the city of Cartann, handling the comfan was an art, and each gesture had a hidden meaning.
(SOA)
Comkin Five
this planet was known for its production of candies and medicines. The two industries were inextricably tied to each other. The world
was controlled by the Warlord Zsinj during the early years of the New Republic, and was targetted for action by Han Solo's task force
hunting the warlord. (SOC)
Comlaser Link
a form of communications which requires visual contact between the sending device and the remote location. (AS)
Comlight
similar in size and shape to a comlink, this device uses bursts of light to send a signal. Flashes and coloration can be used in a sort of
code to signal another individual far away. The comlight is somewhat more effective than a comlink in situations where slience and
stealth are necessary, but only in those situations where a bright light wouldn’t be noticed. (IG1)

various triangulations. (SW1)
Conner net
an electrically-charged metal mesh used to immobilze a target, Conner nets come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Large Conner nets
are used to detain ships, by dropping the net onto a ship and allowing the net to weld itself to their hulls. Smaller nets can be placed in
passageways and triggered with motion sensors to drop onto intruders. This is a much less humane use, of course. (TLC, VOF)
Conners
this Alliance starship crewman served under Alain Gryphon aboard the Celestial. Conners was killed when the ship was captured by the
Charon in Otherspace, during the initial wave of attacks. (OS)

Conno was just five years old at the time. (E1A5)
Conor
this Imperial trooper served under Administrator Brago, after Brago replaced Fuguee at the Kline Colony outpost. In reality, Conor was
an Alliance agent named Urek who had infiltrated the colony after Brago's rise to power. It was Conor who supposedly shot down Daye
Azur-Jamin's message pod, which told the Sunesi where to retrieve a cache of smuggled weapons. Urek later helped Daye and his
companions escape from the colony's prison. (SWJ10)
Conquest
the Imperial Interdictor-class Cruiser which was patrolling the space near Ithor for smugglers. It happened to discover the Ithorian
culture and its knowledge of ecology, and obtained a vast base of knowledge from the Ithorians. Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina
describes the Conquest as an Imperial-class Star Destroyer under the command of Captain Alima. This fits in with the Star Wars:
Customizable Card Game, which indicates that the Conquest was one of the two Star Destroyers which chased the Millennium Falcon
from Mos Eisley. (SCRE, TME, CCG2)
Conroy, Allyse
Moranda Savich used this pseudonym to get close to Hal Horn on Darkknell, during the search for the plans to the first Death Star.
Horn had been wearing a Jostrian choke-collar, placed on his neck by Ysanne Isard, in order to guarantee his cooperation. Moranda
and Garm Bel Iblis needed to get him free in order to get to the plans, so Moranda pretended to be Allyse and ran up to him in the
middle of Xakrea. She flung her arms around his neck in a big hug, then secretly unlatched the collar. (TFNR)

surrender. (WS)
Construction Crawler
a crane-like device which was used to perform maintenance on tall buildings. The crawler ran along a track that was mounted to the
building, and as it moved along the track it worked. Crawlers could clean, fix, and modify the buildings they were attached to. (LO)
Construction droids
huge, 40-story tall machines that are capable of gathering raw materials, synthesizing them into parts, and then building structures.
They were built early in Emperor Palpatine's reign, and are still in use by the New Republic. They are often equipped with implosion
wrecking balls, plasma cutters, and huge shovels and hammers. Each of these droids is programmed to operate along a specific path,
reducing everything it encountered to rubble. This rubble is further smelted and reduced to its component elements within nuclear
furnaces. These raw materials are sent on to processing plants within the droid, which modify the materials and create brand new
construction materials. These can be assembled in the wake of the droid's path into new buildings based on preprogrammed designs.
(DE1, JS, JASB)
Constructor Pods
small, crablike ships built by the Mon Calamari, they are used to build the star cruisers at the Mon Calamari shipyards. (DA)
Consular Ship
any starship registered to a member of the Imperial Senate, they were immune to spaceport and deep-space inspections. When the
Emperor dissolved the Senate, he took away the ability to register as a consular ship, thus eliminating any secrets. (SW, SWR)
Container Ship
any of the huge supertransports utilizing standardized cargo containers to move huge amounts of cargo across the galaxy. These ships
are very expensive and very slow, and require the use of a smaller transport ship to offload their cargo to its destination, since they are
incapable of landing at any spaceport.
There are various classes of container ship:

weapons and minimal shields (50 SBD, 35 RU hull). (TIE)
Containment Bubble
a starfighter life-support system, the containment bubble is activated whenever a cockpit breach is detected. Using force fields, the
bubble surrounds the pilot with a small envelope of breathable air that matches the shape of the cockpit. The containment bubble is
incapable of protection against full vacuum, but will allow a pilot to repair the damage to the cockpit and restore normal operations. It
also has a limited duration of about an hour, depending on the size of the power pack it is attached to. (IR)
Contel
an Imperial container transport operative during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE)
Contender Squadron
this group of New Republic A-Wings served aboard the Allegiance during the defense of Adumar. (SOA)
Contest, The
this Silika battle of intestinal fortitude required that a challenger and his opponent consume a wide range of alcoholic beverages, with
bets made at each round as to which contestant will pass out first. The challenger was allowed to choose the drinks, but was honor-
bound to consume it the exact same way as his opponent. The rules of The Contest required that the loser accept his loss, and not take
revenge on the victor. There was also a great deal of ceremony involved in the challenge, which each contestant had to follow or risk
disqualification. (SWJ1)
Continuum Void
this tapcafe, located in the city of Xakrea on the planet Darkknell, was the place where Alliance agents planned to turn over the plans to

Governor Norrin for elimination. (SWJ9)
Control
1) the first of the Force skills which Jedi Knights are able to use, Control is an internal skill which can be used to recognize the Force in
oneself and in the universe. (SWSB, IJ)
2) this was the codename of the Cavrilhu Pirate who monitored security at the Kauron asteroid base. Control was one of the inventors
behind the Jedi-containing rooms built into the base. The room used a tight grid of bars which emerge from opposite walls of the
chamber to pin a person inside. The bars are pressure-sensitive, and will firmly grasp anything they come in contact with. The room
was also equipped with gas-emitting jets, which could be used to flood the chamber with deadly gases. They could also be used in
reverse, creating an airless vacuum in the room. When Zothip flew to Bastion, in an effort to obtain compensation for the loss of a battle
cruiser at Pesitiin, Control was the only member of the gang to survive the combined defense of Major Tierce and Karoly D'ulin. He had
become tired of following in Zothip's misguided footsteps, and allowed the pirate captain to get himself killed. Control then assumed
control of the Cavrilhu Pirates himself. He broke off the primary relationship with Moff Disra and the Empire, but agreed to keep
producing Preybird forr them. (SOP, VOF)
Control
an Imperial Corvette operative during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE)
Control Guide

Controller FP
SoroSuub's personal force pike. (ISB)
Contruum
this planet was the homeworld of Airen and Pash Cracken. (CRO, WG)
Contruum's Pride
this freighter was discovered by Rogue Squadron to be working with the Imperial ship Vengeance Derra IV on Mrisst. The two ships
worked together to throw off pursuit while smuggling. It was identified as an Imperial ruse because freighters usually aren't named after
virtues. Pash Cracken, also a native of Contruum, couldn't identify the ship. (WG)
Contumely Club
an eating and drinking establishment that caters strictly to non-humans. Droids are also excluded. (RPG)
Convarion, Ait
this Imperial Navy Captain served during the attacks at both Derra IV and Hoth before being given command of the Corrupter. As a
Captain, Convarion was charged with terrorizing rebellious worlds in the Outer Rim. After the Battle of Endor, he aligned with Ysanne
Isard and brought the Corrupter to Thyferra to help protect the Bacta Cartel. He was known as a cruel and calculating opponent who
worked hard to end every engagement quickly, despite the odds against him. When Convarion failed to recapture the Xucphra Alazhi,
Xucphra Meander, and Xucphra Rose from the Rogue Squadron, Isard demanded that he round up and execute the families of the
Alazhi as a demonstration of her power and his allegiance. He balked, but Fliry Vorru saved him by having already done the job. The
test was not removed, though, as Isard ordered Convarion to take the Thyferran Homde Defense Corps and attack the settlement on
Halanit. He died on the Corrupter when it was disabled by the Rogues over Alderaan's asteroid belt. The ship could not be saved
before it drifted in to the asteroids and was torn apart. (BW)
Cooha
this tall, avian predator evolved on the low-gravity world of Ganeid II. Standing nearly two meters tall, the cooha had a long spiked
finger on each wing and a set of slashing teeth set in its beak for tearing flesh. (TBSB)

Coolie
one of Luke Skywalker's aunts, she never wanted to have a good time. (COJ)
Cooling Station
this was the name of a series of automated drink dispensers, used in many bars and cantinas across the galaxy. These machines were
loaded with a variety of alcoholic beverages and mixers, and were programmed to create in infinite variety of concoctions. (WSV)
Coolth
this chemical was used to maintain the temperature of buildings which were constructed in desert environments. Coolth was pumped
throughout the building’s walls in a huge grid of thin pipes. As the cold coolth passed through the grid, it kept the interior walls of the
building cool, while blocking the exterior heat from entering. (IWE1)
Coomb
this form of bio-engineered spore was created by the Yuuzhan Vong. It was released to certain individuals within the New Republic,
prior to the Vong's initial invasion into the known galaxy. In all but one case, the victim who took in the coomb spore died within days.
Only Mara Jade Skywalker was able to resist the effects of the coomb spore, primarily through the concentrated use of the Force. Her
survival was a source of frustration for the Yuuzhan Vong, especially its creator, Nom Anor, as it meant that the Jedi Knights were a
much stronger foe than they had realized. A modified version of the coomb spore was planned for use, known as the bo'tous. (VP, HT)
Coomb Spore
developed by Nom Anor and the Yuuzhan Vong, this virus breaks down the victim's molecular structure and causes a quick, horrible
death. However, it was not communicable. Nom Anor had planned to use it on the humans of the galaxy, but could not develop a way
to make the virus self-replicating, becoming more of a disease than a poisonous virus. The spores themselves were the favored food of
the shlecho newt. Mara Jade had been infected with the spores, as Nom Anor tried to fathom the strength of the Jedi Knights. She
survived for several months, using the Force to keep the disease at bay. (VP)
Coomputu
this dry, frigid world is the fourth planet in the Garnib System. It had a single, small moon. (PG1)
Cooper’s Swoopers
this swoop gang was founded by Cooper Dray on the planet Bescane. (SWJ9)
Copper Coast
this area of the planet Sriluur was the site of the planet's Imperial garrison during the Galactic Civil War. It was located on the Meirm
Sea, and was named for the incredbily high concentration of copper in the sands and the surrounding ocean. Unlike the bleached-white
sands that are found in every other seaside location on the planet, the Copper Coast has a ruddy color that comes from the natural
copper. However, the high concentration of copper and other minerals in the sands and water is picked up in the early morning mists
that blanket the coast, coating everything in sight - including the port of Meirm City - in a somewhat caustic fog. (SSR)
Copper League
this was one of the many wegsphere leagues which played in matches during the height of the New Order. (TBSB)
Cor
this race of small felines is native to the jungles of the planet Gargolyn IV. They guarded their villages against invasion, and were aided
in their defense by a huge creature that had been captured by an ancient Cor shaman. The beast once roamed the jungle and ravaged
Cor settlements until the shaman bound the creature to the land itself. In reality, the Cor shaman was adept in the use of the light side
of the Force, and future generations of Cor had enough sensitivity with the Force to keep the shaman's work vital. The beast was
contained as long as the Cor didn't move from their villages, but when Karflo Corporation sought to move them out in order to build a
new manufacturing plant, the beast was unleashed. It destroyed everything Karflo tried to do, until Karflo relented and allowed the Cors
to return to their villages. (GMS)
Cor'ric Sector
this area of the galaxy is located in the Outer Rim Territories. (GG9)

Coral Ohah
this strong-muscled individual was one of the directors of Sleeft Docking Bay Maintenance in Mos Eisley, on Tatooine. He was
responsible for several illicit activities undertaking by Sleeft, including the theft of top-notch droid parts from Notsub Shipping. When the
Bith Angor Farn mistakenly took the freighter containing the parts, he tried to escape from Ohah and ransom the parts for a huge sum.
However, Farn never got off Tatooine. He tried to hide out in the Dim-U monastery, but Ohah received some help from Alliance agents
in extricating Farn and recovering the parts. (GG7)
Coral Vanda
a subocean luxury casino operated on Pantolomin. Captain Hoffner ran the vessel, until Han Solo and Lando Calrissian tried to locate
him. Niles Ferrier got to the ship first, and spirited Hoffner away. The ship, manufacturer by the Pantolomin Shipwrights, has four upper
casinos (the Kossi Room, the Tralla Room, the Deston Room, and the Brint Room, all named for Pantolomin's major land masses), an
extensive passenger section, and four lower casinos (the Ventel Room, the Rugot Room, the Saffkin Room, and the Hassi Room). The
walls of the Coral Vanda are lined with scarlet greel wood, and most of its gaming tables are inset with sanriv gemstones.
Transparisteel viewports were everywhere, affording unobstructed views of the ocean. There are sixteen luxury suites and four
"adventure rooms" that allow the user to recreate exotic locations. The Coral Vanda can accommodate up to 600 passengers. (DFR,
DFRSB, EGV)
Coralline
this beautiful stone, renowned for its sculptability, was found on the planet Hargeeva. (SWJ8)
Coralskipper
this form of Yuuzhan Vong starfighter was created from yorik coral in much the same way as a worldship, only on a much smaller scale.
They performed a number of missions, including fighter cover for the worldships as well as maintaining the placement of the
membranous organic sails used to propel them. The coralskippers were armed with volcano missiles, which it seemed to spit out of its
hull. The pilots of coralskippers were linked directly to their craft by another form of ooglith cloaker, one engineered to resist vacuum
and provide life support to the pilot. Individual coralskippers could refuel and rearm themselves by "eating" rocks. (VP)

one of the leading food producers for the planet Demophon. This helped Rigis make a few enemies, and one of those enemies
succeeded in murdering him in an attempt to rid Tyed Kant of Gryseium Incorporated. (SN)
Corbantis
this New Republic battle cruiser was part of the primary fleet stationed at Durren. When Seti Ashgad instigated pirate attacks on
Ampliquen during his attempt to gain control of the galaxy with Dzym, the Caelus and the Corbantis were dispatched to Ampliquen.
Both ships were infected with the Death Seed plague by Ashgad’s agents, and once the crews were killed the ships were disposed on
on distant planets. The Corbantis was scuttled on Damonite Yors B, but seventeen crewmembers managed to stay alive by huddling
near the reactor core. Despite the radiation sickness they were exposed to, the emissions from the damaged power core probably killed
off the Death Seed plague and allowed them to survive until Han Solo and Lando Calrissian rescued them. (POT)
Corbit, Jacen
this man was in charge of the Imperial Office of Criminal Investigations during the height of the New Order. He was ordered by Moff
Landric to hunt down the thief known as the Tombat. Corbit brought in Zanza Gata to get the job done. (SWJ8)
Corbos
this desolate Outer Rim planet was the site of an experimental mining colony, established in the years following the death of Emperor
Palpatine’s clones at Byss. Attempts had been made to colonize the world for several thousand years, but all had failed. The weather
on Corbos is extreme, and the ore-processing facility had to be established in low orbit in order to keep it from being destroyed by
storms. This meant that the ores produced on Corbos generated very little profit for the miners. In what is known as the Black Rain
season, the planet is drenched in a heavy, acidic rain that prohibits any outdoor work. It was here that the miners discovered a species
of incredibly huge, Force-sensitive creatures that wiped out the entire population of 793 colonists and required several of the new Jedi
Knights to defeat. Tionne discovered that the creature was responsible for many of the destroyed colonies. The planet is orbited by two
moons. (JAL)
Cordel Cove
this was the name of the primary spaceport and city on the planet Neftali. It was located beneath Orane Mountain, on the thin strip of
land which separated the Beija Seas and connected the Jhunia snow plains to the Yiulimar Fjords. During the height of the Galactic
Civil War, the starport was owned by Abdi-Badawzi and operated by his daughter, Memcha-Badawzi. Memcha maintained a squadron
of Whiphid guards for security purposes, led by Grenal. Cordel Cove was located near a volcanic flow which created uderground
grottoes filled with hot springs, which attracted a large number of tourists. It was also the site of an annual swoopchasing race which
was considered part of a galactic "triple crown" group of courses. (BSS)
Cordine
this medicine is often administered via a patch applied to the skin. It is prescribed for patients of Zithrom's Disease, to help hold off the
degenerative effects of the disease. (TFE)
Cordioline Trehansicol
this chemical is used to combat infestations of insects such as metalmites. It is sold under the brand name CorTrehan. It must be laid
out in such a way that the insects can move around it, but encounter it wherever they feed. The most often used pattern is a series of
curlicues leading to a central food source. It has a thick, sweet-sour smell, and takes almost two weeks to effectively kill off a metalmite
brood. (VOF)
CorDuro Shipping
this interplanetary transportation corporation was contracted by the New Republic's Senate Select Committee for Refugees to deliver
supplies to the refugee domes on the planet Duro, during the Yuuzhan Vong's invasion of the galaxy. Their headquarters were located
on Duggan Station. It was later discovered that they were diverting shipments to the orbital cities instead of delivering them to the
refugees, as part of a plan formed by the Duros High House which allowed the Vong to have the planet Duro in return for the freedom
of one orbital city. CorDuro had been working to divert supplies to Bburru, and had been bribed by the Peace Brigade to sway the
voting in the Duros High House. CorDuro had hoped to obtain advance warning of a Yuuzhan Vong attack on Duro from the Peace
Brigade, which would allow them to escape the battle with one of the planet’s orbital cities intact. As the plans moved forward, CorDuro
moved from conspirator to collaborator, and agreed to help ship any captured refugees to Yuuzhan Vong detention camps. (BP)
Core Construction
this Coruscant-based construction firm was actually a front for Black Sun. Although they produced quality buildings, Core Constructions
often underbid the competition to win the contract, then had a series of cost overruns that simply fed credits into Black Sun's coffers.
(SESB)
Core Foodstuffs
primary food producers for the Core Worlds, they maintain a vast network of serf-like holdings to supply the huge quantities of food
required by the Core's populace. (DESB)
Core Systems
the planets, such as Coruscant, that made up the center of the galaxy as defined by both the Republic and the Empire. (SW, DE1)
Core Worlds
another name for the Core Systems, this area of the galaxy borders the Deep Core and contains some of the wealthiest and most
populated worlds of the galaxy. (EGP)
CoreDataFiles
this company was a subsidiary of Millennium Entertainments. (CSA)
Corek, Bel
this Alliance starfigher pilot was a Captain the military, and served as the commanding officer of the Silverblade Squadron of X-Wings,
based out of outpost DVL-181 on Aracara. He had graduated from the Imperial Academy, and never found dogfights boring. He was
able to blend is youthful exuberance with combat experience, teaching his squadron to be confident, not cocky. (HAS)
Corell
primary star in the Corellian System. (AC)
Corellia
homeworld of Han Solo and Garm Bel Iblis, Corellia is located in the Corellian System, in the Corellian Sector of the galaxy, somewhere
near the Core Worlds. It was once a democracy (in the days of Berethon e Solo), and reverted temporarily to a monarchy when Korol
Solo tried to raise himself to kingship. Following his hanging, Corellia returned to being a republic (about 250 years before Han was
born). Since then, it has become an introverted world, keeping mainly to intself and not getting involved with outside politics. The planet
has a temperate ecology, with many large oceans. (SW, DFR, CPL, AC)
Corellia Star
this YT-1300 stumbled upon the Imperial V38 development project late in the Galactic Civil War. Its crew was killed near the Dreighton
Nebula, but not before they contacted a flight of Alliance B-Wings. The Alliance pilots were able to recover the freighter and discover
more information on the V38 project. (RA2)
Corellia StarDrive
this corporation was formed by a former Corellian Engineering Corporation executive, and had an illustrious - though brief - history.
Corellia StarDrive was founded about 1,000 years before the Great Sith War, and created civilian and military craft to rival CEC. In fact,
the Old Republic Navy chose many CSD designs over CEC. This success was brought to a halt when a freak shuttle crash killed the
entire CSD design team. The corporation never fully recovered from the loss, and was purchased by CEC about 2,000 years after its
creation. (EGV)
Corellian
the human inhabitants of Corellia. The traditional Corellian wedding dress is green in color. (SW, RD)
Corellian Ale
a full-bodied brew. (GG9)
Corellian Bloodstripes
this Corellian award is represented by a three-centimeter-wide broken stripe if piping that runs along the outer seam of a pair of
trousers. There are two levels of bloodstripe awarded. The Second-level bloodstripe is gold, and is rarely given out. The First-level
bloodstripe is red, and is usually awarded posthumously because of the heroic deeds required to earn it. Most bloodstripes are earned
for courage under fire. The wearer, though, is recognized for simply being a human in the right place at the right time, enduring unusual
hardships. The wearer is by no means a superhero. Han Solo is one of the few examples of a living Corellian who has earned First-
level bloodstripes. He earned his Second-level bloodstripes for rescuing Chewbacca; he has never disclosed the reason he was
awarded the First-level bloodstripes. He prefers to wear the yellow stripes, so as not to receive inquiries on them. (HSL, CSA)
Corellian Brandy
an interstellar spirit, used as the main ingredient in a Twistler. (DFR)
Corellian Cafe
a bar and restaurant located on Nar Shaddaa. (THG)
Corellian Carousel
this starship maneuver was invented by owners of YT-1300 light freighters. To help compensate for the lack of visibility due to the off-
center placement of the cockpit, many YT-1300 owners will put the ship into a slow spin during landing. This spin - opposite the position
of the cockpit - allows them to get a feel for their location and proximity during landing in tight spaces. This maneuver was later modified
to allow pilots to check their position in heavy traffic situations, as well as during a firefight. (TT)
Corellian Clam
a mollusk which is extremely difficult to open. (SE)

can be locked in place before the cards are spun. (DA)
Corellian Gunship
these expensive fighter ships are 120 meters in length, and are heavily armed with 8 dual turbolaser batteries, 6 quad laser batteries,
and 4 concussion missile tubes. The remainder of the ship is made up of its fast engine plant and a small crew quarters. (RASB, TLC)
Corellian Limpet
this small mollusk was known to attach itself to a starship and multiply quickly. If left alone, the limpets would eventually clog exhaust
nacelles. In addition, the mild acid they exuded to attach themselves to starship hulls eventually weakened the hull plating, which
deteriorated the hull’s integrity. (C)
Corellian Overdrive
this phrase, sometimes used by Han Solo and Lando Calrissian, is used to denote the need to do whatever it takes to complete a job. It
ranges from finagling the rules to rearranging operational parameters, but doesn’t mean cheating in an honest game. (ROJR)
Corellian Reserve
a vintage of whiskey fermented on Corellia. (TFNR)
Corellian Run
this hyperspace pathway originated at the planet Corellia, and struck out through Froz and Nubia before passing by Tynna and Kalabra
to Tatooine and Ryloth. (BP)
Corellian Rum
an interstellar spirit (CPL)
Corellian Sanctuary
established on Coruscant , this small, domed building was designed to honor those Corellians who died off-world. Because the Diktat of
Corellia would not allow members of the New Republic to land on the planet, natives who died while away from Corellia could not be
repatriated. So, exiled Corellians built the Sanctuary. Corellians ritually cremate their dead, then use industrial-grade compressors to
compact the ashes into a synthetic diamond. The diamonds provide immortality to the dead, and are placed in the black walls of the
Sanctuary to represent the stars in Corellia's sky. (BW)
Corellian Sea-ray
a creature native to the oceans of Corellia. (XWN)
Corellian Sector
1) a group of 24 star systems, of which the Corellian System is the most important. The Corellian Sector is located within the area of the
galaxy known as the Core Worlds. In general, it is an inward-looking group of systems. The sector was particularly introverted during
and after the Galactic Civil War, when it did everything possible to stay out of the political and social upheaval. The planets and their
inhabitants have been labeled paranoid and distrustful because of their introversion. Much of this was attributed to the enforced laws of
the old Empire, which demanded that the humans, Selonians, and Drall in the sector co-exist in relative peace, maintaining the outward
appearance of cooperation. (AC, EGP)
2) one of many sectors of the Nar Shaddaa spaceport, it is also one of the busiest. (DE2)
Corellian Slip
this starfighter maneuver is a countermaneuver which can be very dangerous for inexperienced pilots, but has saved a number of
skilled pilots in battle. (CCG)
Corellian Space Cruiser
this Corellian Engineering Corporation starship was the precursor of the Corellian Gunship and the CR-90 corvette. Measuring 115
meters in length, the cruiser had three Dyne 577 sublight engines and a Longe Voltran Tri-arc CD-3.2 hyperdrive. (X1)
Corellian System
the primary planetary system in the Corellian Sector, the Corellian System is an anomolous system in that it has 5 habitable planets
(Corellia, Drall, Selonia, Talus, and Tralus; they are known in the system as the Five Brothers) orbiting the system's primary star, Corell.
Some scientists and astrophysicists have hypothesized that the system was "built" by a higher power, since the planets all have similar,
strange orbits, and all support life. The three primary species in the system - human, Drall, and Selonian - have moved about quite a bit
during the system's life, and all are equally at home on any of the five worlds. (AC)
Corellian Technologies
this Corellian corporation specialized in personal defense systems. (GG10)
Corellian Thunder
1) this heavily-modified Ghtroc freighter was owned by the smuggler Davrin. He used it to transport Sienn Sconn and a Rythani
Products weapon prototype off Rydonni Prime. (SWJ9)
2) this Corellian Engineering gunship was part of the Alliance fleet which patrolled Trax Sector shortly after the Battle of Yavin. It was
dispatched to assist in the destruction of the Bissillirus Resupply Base. (GMK)
Corellian Treaty
the agreement which solidified the three major factions of the early Alliance. Bail Organa and Mon Mothma had brought the three main
resistance leaders together, and Garm Bel Iblis mediated the talks, which resulted in the common set of ideals which formed the
Alliance. Since Bel Iblis is a Corellian, the document was called the Corellian Treaty. (DFR)
Corellian Twister

institution, where prospectors could assay their chronamite finds and store the credits they earned. (SWJ12)
Corestrike Hotel
located in the boomtown of Corestrike, on the planet Chrona, this was the only hotel in the area which provided miners and visitors with
their own rooms and real beds. (SWJ12)
Corewatch
this was the code name of an Alliance agent who worked deep undercover in the Core Worlds. Very few members of the Alliance knew
about Corewatch, and the agent's presence may have dated back to the origin of the Alliance. In reality, Corewatch was Bonic
Tarracus, and was know to many as an extremely reliable agent. His confidence - and the Alliance's confidence in him - was shattered
when he was unable to recover the 177th Light Infantry team inserted to blow up a munitions depot. Corewatch went AWOL, but later
returned to acive duty. However, his effectiveness was greatly diminshed, and many in the Alliance's command structure felt he had
been co-opted by the Empire and forced into double-agent duty. It was even rumored that he had become Ars Dangor's personal valet,
although this was never proven. (CRO)
Corf Sarb
this Enu gangster ran a number of gambling halls and a smuggling operation on his homeworld of Deylerax. He was a former Imperial
employee who embezzled funds from the Empire to start his own operation, and was known to be willing to kill anyone to protect his

this Mobquet luxury groundspeeder measures 10 meters in length, and has room for up to 6 passengers. It is available in 500 colors
that span various visible spectra (many are undetectable to humans), although black is the most popular. (CSA)
Corona-class Frigate
this was one of the earliest starship designs approved by the New Republic, although it saw limited production. It is not considered one
of the new class of ships produced for the Fifth Battle Group, such as the Sacheen-class escort frigate. Built by Kuat Drive Yards, it was
modeled after the KDY Nebulon-B frigate, and was designed to carry up to three squadrons up starfighters into battle. The Corona-
class frigate measured 275 meters in length, required a crew of 782 with 56 gunners, and could transport up to 80 troops. They were
hyperspace-capable, and were armed with 10 turbolaser cannons, 10 laser cannons, 4 ion cannons, and a pair of tractor beam
projectors. (BTS, CTD)
Corona-class Transport
manufactured by Kuat Drive Yards, these 28.4-meter ships could hold up to 80 metric tons of cargo and could accommodate up to six
passengers. Manned by three crewmen, the Corona-class had minimal hyperdrive and shield capabilities. These ships were armed with
a single laser cannon. The Corona-class was Kuat's attempt to compete with the Corellian Engineering YT-series, but it was generally
regarded as overpriced and underpowered for its class. (SN, PP)
Coronar
this planet was the site of an Imperial Intelligence center during the Galactic Civil War. (SH)
Corondexx
this was a small weapons manufacturer which produced snare guns, pulse rifles and other blasters during the Galactic Civil War. Note
that this corporation is sometimes referred to as Corondex. (GG10, GG11)
Coronet
the capital city of the planet Corellia, it contains a number of small buildings surrounded by large parks, plazas, and open areas. The
beauty of the city is offset somewhat by its run-down spaceport. It was in this spaceport that Han Solo was abandoned as a child, and
later “rescued” by Garris Shrike. The city is known for its gleaming towers and graceful domes. (AC, TPS)
Corp Commander
the war robot in charge of defending the Queen of Ranroon on Dellalt. He controlled the other robots in the Guardian Corp. (HSL)
Corporate Complexes
this was the name given by the Saurton to the territories which were controlled by the various mining consortiums which worked on the
planet Essowyn. Each complex was established to give a specific corporation complete control over the territory's resources. (PG1)
Corporate Sector
this area of the galaxy originally was set aside by the Old Republic for corporations to use for mining raw materials. It was created after
the experiment at corporate control in the Expansion Region failed. Several hundred systems - all devoid of intelligent life - made up the
original Expansion Region Corporate Sector, and corporations could purchase the use of entire systems under the watchful eye of the
Republic. Huge corporations began moving into the area, hoping to acquire a piece of the huge profits it was generating. The corporate
executives were bound by the Old Republic's Senate until Emperor Palpatine rose to power. Under the New Order, executives
convinced the Emperor to expand the Corporate Sector to include nearly 30,000 star systems. Eleven new intelligent species were
discovered, but their existence was kept secret by the power-hungry corporations. The executives agreed to pay Palpatine a
percentage of their corporate profits if he would allow them to manage the sector by themselves, to which Palpatine agreed. Thus was
born the Corporate Sector Authority and the CSA Security Police force. The current Corporate Sector is bordered by the Aparo and Wyl
Sectors. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, much of the pathway known as Vector Prime traveled through the Corporate
Sector, and planets such as Brigia and Ruuria were overrun as the Yuuzhan Vong moved toward the Core. (HSE, CSA, HT)
Corporation Wing
part of the Bakur Complex, where the Prime Minister's offices are located. (TB)

was located in the Rim Territories. (BTS)
Corridor, The
a smuggler's access to the surface of Belsavis, The Corridor consisted of an atmospherically-stable portion of Belsavis' southern
hemishpere. Smuggling ships entered low-orbit through this hole, and then landed on the ice, away from the volcanic vents and rifts. A
series of tunnels led from the 10-12 remote landing pads to various parts of the domed valleys. Nubblyk perfected the tunnnels during
his tenure as town boss of Plawal. (COJ)
Corridor Ghoul
one of the mutated creatures that evolved under Imperial City on Coruscant, the corridor ghouls were discovered by agents of the NRI
when they went looking for underground structures to use as safe rooms. They left the ghouls alone, for the most part, using them as a
form of natural defense against intruders. The ghouls are four-legged creatures that stand about a meter tall. They have pale skin, large
ears, long teeth, and no eyes. They use their ears, in concert with a series of high-pitched screams, to echo-locate their prey. (AS)

this Trandoshan male worked for Nolaa Tarkona during the latter days of the Diversity Alliance. When the New Republic sent a
delegation to Ryloth to investigate the Alliance’s true goals, a struggle broke out among the various factions of Jedi Knights and aliens.
In a battle with Lowbacca, Corrsk managed to injure the young Wookiee during his escape from Ryloth. However, Corrsk was with
Nolaa Tarkona when the various plagues in Evir Derricote’s lab were unleashed. He died a horrible death along side the Twi’lek. (TEP)
Corrupter
1) this Victory-II class Star Destroyer was part of the fleet commanded by Ysanne Isard shortly after the battle of Endor. It was
commanded by Ait Convarion. Isard used it to protect the planet Thyferra, along with the Lusankya, Avarice, and Virulence, during her
short reign there. The Star Destroyer was sent to intercept Rogue Squadron when they took control of a bacta convoy led by the
Xucphra Alazhi, and was forced to destroy the freighter. As punishment, Isard sent the Corrupter to destroy the settlement on Halanit. It
later went to Alderaan to intercept the Rogues there, with the assistance of the Aggregator, but was completely disabled by the sudden
appearance of the Valiant. It drifted into the asteroids that used to be Alderaan wand was destroyed. (BW)

Sesswenna Sector. (MTS, REB)
Corstris
a forest world Han visited with the Alliance. (TLC)
Cort, Farl
this man was one of the leaders of the settlement on Halanit, shortly before it was destroyed for accepting bacta from Rogue Squadron.
A short, balding man, Farl was greatly concerned with the outbreak of a disease which resembled the Cardooine Chills. When Gavin
Darklighter escaped from the Corrupter and made it back to Halanit, Cort befriended him and helped him get Gavin's X-Wing repaired.
However, when the Corrupter attacked Halanit in retaliation for taking bacta from the Rogue, Cort was among the huge loss of life at the
hands of the Thyferran Home Defense Corps. (BW)
Corthel

uses is in the manufacture of photo-receptors used as droid eyes. (GMK)
Cortina
this planet's government was full of bluster and self-importance when it applied for membership in the New Republic. It backed down
before it was officially admitted. (BTS)
Cortosis
the Jensaarai sect used strands of this ore to layer their unique armor. Using the Force, they wove the cortosis into the shapes of
vicious, predatory animals, making their armor forbidding as well as better able to defend themselves. (IJ)
CorTrehan
this is the brand name of cordioline trehansicol. (VOF)
Cortyg
this is a strong alcohol produced by the Wookiees. (RD)
Corulag
a planet in the Deep Core, located in the Bormea Sector. It is the primary planet in the Corulag System, and is a temperate world
covered with forests and plains. A satellite of the Academy is located in the capital city of Curamalle. The planet's economy was
maintained because of its position, located along the Perlemian Trade Route, as well as the presence of the Academy buildings. In
many respects, Corulag was one of the most cosmopolitan worlds of the Empire. (DFRSB, SWAJ, E1A3, HR)
Corulag
a New Republic modified bulk cruiser used in the assault on the Imperial base on Blackmoon. (XWN)
Corulag Academy
the name of the Imperial Academy satellite school located in Curamelle. It is rivaled only by the school on Raithal. Like all branches of
the Imperial Academy, the Corulag Academy started out as a prestigious university established during the height of the Old Republic.
(SWAJ, E1A4)
Corusca Bank
this financial institution, headquartered on Coruscant, is most famous for a clerical error which placed Emperor Palpatine at the top of a
public list of loan defaulters. Although the list was available for only two standard hours, Palpatine discovered it and began searching
for the perpetrators. He immediately remived the entire board of directors, and went looking for more. In an effort to lay blame on a
single individual and reduce the attrition rate, Corusca pinpointed Onibald Daykim as the culprit. Daykim fled, and Corusca was
eventually allowed to do normal business again. (JASB)
Corusca Fire
this Victory-class Star Destroyer was part of the fleet dispatched under the command of Admiral Ackbar to liberate the planet Ciutric
from Prince-Admiral Krennel. Using the Thrawn Pincer to surprise Krennel's fleet, Ackbar had the Corusca Fire and a sister ship, the
Selonian Fire, remain on the far side of the Ciutric System until called for. When Krennel activated the gravity well projectors on the
Binder, Ackbar ordered the two Victory ships to microjump forward. The gravity shadow from the Binder pulled them out of hyperspace
behind Krennel's fleet, allowing them to pummel Krennel's ships which were also trapped in place by the Interdictor cruiser. Years later,
the Corusca Fire was one of the leading ships in the defense of Dantooine against the Yuuzhan Vong. It was responsible for protecting
the refugees fleeing from Dubrillion to Agamar, and nearly destroyed a Yuuzhan Vong worldship in the battle. The only reason it was at
the battle in the first place was because its captain, Rimsen, was a native of Agamar, and learned that Leia Organa Solo had petitioned
Agamar for help when the New Republin turned a blind eye to the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. Rimsen ignored his patrol orders and flew to
Dantooine, saving the refugees from almost certain destruction. (IR, DTO)
Corusca Jewels
formed from the intense heat and gravity inside Yavin's core, these extremely hard stones have never been found or duplicated in
other gas giants. Individual stones are formed from carbon and metallic hydrogen, which are compressed by millions of atmospheres of
pressure near the planet's core. The intense pressure actually removes electrons from the hydrogen and carbon, fusing them together
and securing the metallic hydrogen's silvery-gray brilliance. The harsh environment of Yavin often sweeps gems off the core's surface,
as does the foraging of grazers in Yavin's lowest atmosphere. The turbulent storms pick them up and actually polish them, and some of
these jewels eventually land on the planet's fourth moon. Gantoris used them to construct his lightsaber while under the influence of
Exar Kun. Later, Lando Calrissian set up the GemDiver Station operation, and emplyed heavily-armored mining ships to plumb the
atmosphere of Yavin for the gems. (DA, SA, GG2)
Corusca Rainbow
this is the name given by the New Republic to the defected Interdictor cruiser Black Asp. It was part of the fleet assembled to defend
Agamar during the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, protecting the flow of refugees who were fleeing the front
lines of the assault. Traest Kre'fey ordered the ship to travel to Ithor and hide behind one of the planet's smaller moons during the Battle
of Ithor. After the Yuuzhan Vong had unleashed their bioweapon on the planet, Kre'fey ordered the Corusca Rainbow to fire up her
gravity wells and keep the Yuuzhan Vong forces from leaving. The Rainbow and all surviving Republic ships then opened fire,
destroying much of the Yuuzhan Vong fleet, including the Legacy of Torment. (WG, DTR)
Coruscani and I

New Order. (SS)
Coruscani Ogre
this race of simians inhabits the undercity of Imperial City, on Coruscant. The ogres are covered with a thick pelt of shaggy hair, and are
heavily muscled. Their heads are large, misshapen, and triangular, and are split by a wide mouth filled with jagged teeth. They are
semi-intelligent, and not very finicky about what they eat. Their exact origins are unknown. (JASB)
Coruscant
located at galactic coordinates (0,0,0), this planet in the Core Worlds was home to the Old Republic. It was renamed Imperial Center by
Emperor Palpatine. When the New Republic was born, the planet was renamed to Coruscant. Located some 10,000 light-years from
the actual galactic core, Coruscant had two moons and orbited a small white sun. The planet's entire landmass has been covered -
over the thousands of generations spanning galactic history - by multiple levels of the buildings that make up Imperial City. Several of
these immense skyscrapers reach over 6,000 meters into the atmosphere. This means that there is little land available for growing
food, and no natural rivers or lakes to provide water. To solve the dilemma of feeding and watering millions of inhabitants, many of
Coruscant's architects build self-contained ecosystems into their buildings. Engineers have developed a series of huge pipes through
which polar ice water is pumped to the cities. Nearly everything on the planet is recyclable, from clothing to packaging and machinery. It
was the center of all the Old Republic's activities, and helped describe Galactic Standard time. The Imperial Senate was convened
there. When Palpatine assumed control of the Senate and the rest of the government, he established that Coruscant would remain the
center of his Empire. He began a massive work effort to shape Coruscant to his desires, including installing a large number of
surveillance systems. Following the Battle of Endor, Mon Mothma moved the New Republic onto Coruscant and again re-established
the center of the Republic there. This came after the planet was liberated from Ysanne Isard, and the New Republic overcame the
threat of the Krytos virus. Unbeknownst to all, Isard's infamous Lusankya prison facility was hidden in the Super-class Star Destroyer
Lusankya, which was buried beneath Imperial City. Following the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn, the Imperial Inner Circle began
attacking Coruscant in an effort to regain the center of the galaxy for the Empire. This attack was driven back just before the Emperor
was reborn as a clone, but the damage to the planet's resources was horrendous. Also, the immediate space surrounding the planet
was littered with starship wreckage for many years to follow. Once the reborn Emperor was destroyed, the New Republic began
cleaning up the planet to make it more presentable as the center of the galaxy. The standard hour and year are marked by Coruscant's
local hour and year. The normal Coruscant day is divided into 24 hours, and its year lasts 368 local days. According to Rebellion,
Coruscant is located in Sesswenna Sector. (HTTE, DE1, JS, HTSB, ISU, WG, KT, REB, IWE1)

Counter Puncher
this pirate ship was a converted Imperial Customs frigate. It crew defected, led by Tor Skylow, during the Imperial occupation of the
Minos Cluster. Skylow allowed any staunchly Imperial crewmen to be jettisoned in escape pods, but the ship was hers. She and her
new crew took the ship to Yelsain for modifications, in order to remove any Imperial designation or inference from the ship’s outline.
The Counter Puncher measured 35 meters in length, and Skylow’s crew consisted of 6 officers and 6 gunners. It was armed with six
heavy laser cannons. After the defection of the crew, the Counter Puncher was targetted to be captured by Tylen Silroan and the
Warlord. Silroan defected to the Alliance during the attempted capture. (GG6, SWAJ)
Counterpunch
this Imperial Carrack-class warship was part of Zsinj's third fleet, during the early years of the New Republic. The ship was destroyed by

one of the cruisers blockading the ThonBoka to keep the Oswaft from entering Imperial space, the Courteous was the closest ship to
the mouth of the nebula. Lando Calrissian made his final stop their, masquerading as a simple trader before making a run for the
nebula. The Courteous was forced to fire on the Millennium Falcon as it blasted away, and appeared to have destroyed the freighter.
The Courteous was later destroyed when it and the other cruisers nearest the mouth of the nebula tried to kill Bhoggihalysahonues and
her supporters. The Oswaft "shouted" at the Imperials to negotiate, and the microwave energy released by the Oswaft penetrated the
Courteous's thin shielding and destryoed it. (LCS)
Cov-Prim, Alexis
this woman was a star of several Imperial holovids, and was famous during the height of the New Order. She had extravagant tastes,
and in order to fund them she worked with the bounty hunter Malthorn to obtain credits any way they could. Among their schemes was
Alexis' marriage to five wealthy men between the time of the Battle of Yavin and the Battle of Hoth. Each man died shortly after the
weddings. Alexis was named the sole beneficiary in each man's will, thereby providing her with a steady stream of credits. It was later
discovered that Malthorn killed the new grooms, making their deaths look as natural as possible. When she learned of the auction of the
Shard of Alderaan by Begas Tok, Alexis and Malthorn traveled to Tatooine in an effort to locate husband number six. (LAA)
Cova

Covell, Freja
this man served as an Imperial Army General, attached to the Chimaera's crew, during Grand Admiral Thrawn's reign of terror. A native
of the planet Corulag, Covell trained under General Veers, and was a battlegroup leader in the attack on the Alliance's Echo Base on
Hoth. When his walker was destroyed, he rallied a group of snowtroopers and attacked the main base. Captain Pellaeon promoted him
to General and attaced him to the Chimaera after the Battle of Endor, and Covell was placed in charge of many of the fleet's ground
offensives, including the attack on Myrkr. However, when C'baoth needed to have ground forces in his assault on Wayland, C'baoth
took control of Covell's mind with the Force. This worked well, until they reached Wayland and encountered a ysalamiry null-Force
bubble. The loss of the Force ripped away Covell's mind when the link was broken, and Covell was killed. (HTTE, DFR, TLC, DFRSB)

provided by Covis allowed the Alliance to defeat the first wave of Imperials and escape before the Imperials brought in their Death
Engine. (TME)
Cowall, Tetran
this man was Garik Loran's chief rival, during their years as actors for various companies working for the Empire. Both were rivals at
everything, from movie roles to pilot training. They were both holofeature stars, but Cowall's popularity dwindled as he grew older and
more homely. Cowall, eventually, joined Imperial service as a pilot, although his skills were not very good. It was to Tetran Cowall that
Ton Phanan's small fortune would have gone upon his death, if Loran hadn't had his facial scars surgically removed. He found
employment with Warlord Zsinj, who placed Cowall in command of a squadron made from TIE Interceptors piloted by six humans and
six droid starfighters known as TIE Raptors. The droids allowed the human pilots to perform above their skills by offloading certain
st
duties, which provided the outward appearance that Cowall's squadron was the 181 Fighter Group. After Zsinj was defeated at
Selaggis Six, it was revealed that Cowall had been impersonating Baron Soontir Fell, in an effort to draw Wedge Antilles and Rogue
Squadron into a more personal fight. In the aftermath of the Battle of Selaggis, Cowall revealed the depeption to Wedge. (IF, SOC)
Coway

Coyn
this planet is the primary planet in the Coyn System, located in the Elrood Sector. It is located at the crossroads of the Elrood-Derilyn
Trade Route and the Coyn Run. Coyn is the homeworld of the fierce, warrior race known as the Coynites, who hold honor and ritual
above all else. The average day on Coyn lasts 20 standard hours, and its year lasts 380 local days. This temperate world is blanketed
with forests, marshes, and plains broken by beautiful mountain ranges. (PG)

Coyn'skar
this weapon was a form of ceremonial polearm used by Coynites in combat. (OE)
Coynite
the fierce, warrior race which was native to the planet Coyn, the Coynites stand nearly three meters tall. Their bodies are covered with
fine fur, which ranged in color from white or gold to brown and black. Their heads were crowned by a mane of longer hair, and the
length of the mane indicated the individual's social status. Coynites are natural warriors, and almost always wear some form of battle
armor and weapon. Xenobiologists have guessed that the average Coynite could live to be 250 standards years old, but most males
died in combat by the time they were 55. They hold to a rigid system of ritual and honor codes known as the En'Tra'Sol, that governed
not only battle but politics. Offworlders have been killed for not adhering to this code. The Coynites respected and admired the Jedi
Knights of the Old Republic, since the Jedi Code was similar to the En'Tra'Sol in many respects. One code is known as the Cradle Law.

Crab, Finious
this less-than-reputable trader purchased the Lambarian Crab from Matas Havel. Believing himself to be a competent mechanic, Crab
tore out the redundant systems in the YT-2400 transport and installed his own weapons systems. He also tore out the safety backups in
order to feed more power to the heavy double laser cannon he installed. Unfortunately, Finious' skills as a mechanic were not the best,

Craci System
located just within the boundaries of the Corporate Sector, this five-planet system is home to the Cracian Thumper. (RASB)
Cracian Thumper
a creature used for transportation on any number of worlds, the Thumper originated in the Craci System. The name "thumper" was
given to the beast because it looks like it should thump along when it runs. However, the Thumper is one of the quietest animals known,
and makes virtually no noise when it moves. In addition to making good mounts, the Thumper is also a valuable companion in a fight,
using its clawed forearms and feet, as well as its thick tail, to combat enemies. (RASB, DFR)
Crack-loo
a game of chance played in most casinos. (SL)
Cracken, Airen
Airen Cracken was born on Contruum some fifty years before the Battle of Yavin. He grew up his parent’s farm, and was particulary
adept at modifying and fixing machinery. He later opened a mechanic’s shop, and repaired everything from landspeeders to
holoprojectors. He married a Corellian woman namde Josta, and they had two children before the Empire took control of Contruum.
Airen and a group of supporters took to the hills, in an effort to thwart the Imperial forces at every turn. Josta set up safehouses, while
“Cracken’s Crew” crippled stardocks, sabotaged mining operations, and destroyed supply depots. As the Imperial commander began
spending more and more time searching for specific saboteurs, the natives of Contruum developed their own militia. A hard-fought war
was begun, and in the end, the Imperial Moff pulled out rather than waste more effort trying to subdue Contruum. Cracken recognized
that the Empire was not as kind to other worlds in the galaxy, and decided to leave Josta and Contruum to fight for the Alliance. He
provided valuable input during the early years of the Alliance, particularly in the areas of special forces operations. His knack for
modifying devices to perform auxiliary tasks made him an invaluable teacher, and his bravery in the face of Imperial foes twice earned
him the Nebula award. Cracken continued to serve the cause following the Battle of Endor, and became a respected statesman and
military advisor for the New Republic. He was responsible for the New Republic's position when the Rogue Squadron pilots resigned
their commissions, and also negotiated the transfer of the Virulence to Booster Terrik. When the Battle of Thyferra had been decided,
Cracken informed Wedge Antilles that the Rogues' resignations were never actually processed, and they could have them back if the
so desired. After they trained the first group of the Thyferran Aerospace Defense Force, they returned to the New Republic and took up
the mantle of Rogue Squadron again. (HTTE, TLC, WG, CFG, BW)
Cracken, Dena
this young woman was Airen Cracken's daughter. She had just started school about a year before the Battle of Hoth. (SWJ12)
Cracken, Josta
this woman was Airen Cracken's wife. (SWJ12)
Cracken, Pash
a highly-proficient starfighter in the Republic, Pash was the son of Airen Cracken. He flew A-Wings early in his career, and quickly
moved up the ranks to become a squadron commander. However, the people serving under him felt that his seeming invulnerablity and
ability to survive any situation made them equally invulnerable. Pash's squadron soon started taking losses, and was placed under
Varth's unit. Pash used this modification to apply for Rogue Squadron to help save good pilots. He served Wedge Antilles when the
Rogues infiltrated Ciruscant, as a prelude to the New Republic taking the planet back from the remnants of the Empire. He later
returned to Varth's command, eventually serving at Generis just before the battles against Grand Admiral Thrawn. Pash is the
namesake of the Cracken Twist. (TLC, WG)
Cracken Twist
an escape maneuver developed by Pash Cracken in which a team of escort ships maneuvers into an assumed flight path that is altered
based on the countdown to the start of the new maneuver. If the maneuver is to start on the count of 2, the correct flight plan is found
by adding 2 to the second number of each coordinate. (TLC)
Cracken’s Crew
this is the nickname used by those Contruum rebels who fought alongside Airen Cracken, following the Imperial occupation of the
planet. They constantly wreaked havoc with Imperial supply depots and mining operations, and sabotaged stardocks and landing bays.
They often left grafitti behind which declared “Cracken’s Crew Says Hello.” (CFG)

Cradossk
this ancient Trandoshan was the leader of the Bounty Hunters Guild during the reign of Emperor Palpatine. Long beyond his prime
physical condition and extremely paranoid, Cradossk was nonetheless an imposing figure, and his wily intelligence allowed him to
maintain control of Guild and its scheming members. Like his father before him, Cradossk had emerged from his egg and consumed his
siblings, ensuring his own survival. His own spawn, Bossk, had done no less, and Cradossk was sure that the younger reptile would
treacherously try to kill him. Thus, he continually worked the members of the Guild into loose, hidden alliances to eliminate Bossk.
These plans invariably failed, and Bossk remained a thorn in his father’s side. When Boba Fett, acting in concert with Kud’ar Mub’at,
asked to join the Guild, Cradossk saw it as a way to bring prestige to the Guild and to reign in one of its primary opponents. Cradossk
failed to comprehend Fett’s plans until it was too late. By then, infighting among the Guild’s older members and its younger members
was at a head. Bossk took control fhte younger, more hot-headed faction and managed to confront his father alone. In a great struggle,
Bossk managed to kill and eat his father, thereby ensuring his control of the remains of the Guild. (MA, SLS)
Crado
this Cathar Jedi was apprenticed to Vodo Siosk-Baas, along with his lover, Sylvar. He idolized Exar Kun, seeing Kun as a strong source
of power and skill. When Exar Kun rose to power as a Dark Lord of the Sith, he took Crado as a possessed apprentice when the Sith
holocron exploded and sent shards of Dark Side energy into Crado. Under the spell of the ancient Sith, Crado accompanied Oss Willum
to Ambria to kill Master Thon. In a vicious battle with Nomi Sunrider, Thon, and his lover Sylvar, Crado and Oss Willum tried to use the
Dark Side creatures of Lake Natth to do their bidding, but were defeated. Crado nearly killed Sylvar because of the Dark Side influence,
then fled to escape them while Oss Willum was captured. Crado returned to Exar Kun, then accompanied Aleema to the Cron Cluster,
where they tried to use an ancient Sith weapon to destroy the arriving Old Republic fleet. Aleema succeeded in decimating the fleet, but
could not control the weapon. In the end, she caused ten stars in the Cron Cluster to explode, killing herself and Crado. (DLS, TSW)

by Tal Fraan. The message was a plea to the ships of the Fifth Battle Group to halt their attack on Yevethan starships during the
blockade of Doornik-319. Fraan correctly surmised that Republic pilots would break off their attack if they were made to believe
prisoners were alive on the Yevethan ships. However, there were no prisoners, and the Yevethans decimated the Fifth Battle Group
during their successful resistance of the blockade. (SOL)

Creche'
this speciallized Yuuzhan Vong clustership was designed to care for a young yammosk, until it was fully grown and ready for
deployment. The Vong used the life-energies of prisoners captured on Gyndine to nurture the yammosk aboard the Creche'. The ship
was commanded by Chine-kal during this time. Many of the captives who were forced to tend the yammosk died after the young
creature's mental contact. After Chine-kal discovered Wurth Skidder's true nature, he traveled to Kalarba to deliver the Jedi to Tsavong
Lah. However, before they could reach the Yuuzhan Vong commander, the Creche' was attacked by Kyp's Dozen. Chine-kal fled to
Fondor, hoping to get the damaged ship to the main Yuuzhan Vong fleet in time to save the young yammosk. However, the ship barely
survived to Fondor, where it was attacked again by New Republic forces. The Creche' was unable to withstand the assault, which
inlcuded Kyp Durron's execution of the yammosk, and the ship tore itself apart. When the blast from Centerpoint Station ripped through
the Fondor System, the Creche' was incinerated. (JE)
Credal, Risiev
this man, a native of the planet Jofoger, was an accomplished tactician who served the Alliance for several years before his
disappearance, shortly before the Battle of Hoth. Credal trained under the watchful eye of Beryl Chiffonage, and even served under Jan

Creeper
1) this ten-limbed creature was one of the Yuuzhan Vong's many biological constructs. Six of its limbs served as legs. Two of the other
four were quite thin and ended in fronds which could induce pain when they touched flesh, and the other two were heavy and ended in
sharp pincers. These four were held upright as the creature sidled from left to right in order to move. The top of the creature's body was
soft,and was used to carry young yorik coral buds. Three compound eyes sat atop a thick central stalk which could move around to
allow the creature to see. The creeper's job was to take young yorik coral buds and implant them into the living body of a slave-host.
The yorik then kept the slave from revolting while it fed on the host's vital fluids and energy. (DTO)

this New Republic General was a native of the planet Corulag, and a former member of the Imperial Navy. A tall, lean man with an
impassive face, Crespin was given command of the starfighter training base on Folor shortly after the Battle of Thyferra. Crespin's most
notable feature was the mirror-surfaced patch he wore over his prosthetic eye, which was an omnious, glossy black orb. It was rumored
that he lost his eye in an engagement with the Warlord Zsinj, on a world on the border of Zsinj's holdings. Crespin commanded Comet
Squadron before being promoted to General, and thought Garik Loran could never do enough for the Republic to make up for his
contributions to the Empire. In this he was proven wrong, and got a chance to see how wrong first-hand, when Crespin was given
command of the Tedevium and the Screaming Wookiee Squadron following the arrest of Atton Repness. As the commander of the
frigate, Crespin was added to the fleet which supported the Mon Remonda during the hunt for Warlord Zsinj. They arrived during the
final act of the battle for the Razor's Kiss, and Crespin assumed temporary command of Nova Squadron as well. They pummeled
Zsinj's ships with a massive wall of energy, destroying the Razor's Kiss and nearly taking down the Iron Fist. (WS, IF)

Crion
this incredibly rich man was Xanatos’ father, and was a native of the planet Telos. He was the wealthiest, and most powerful man on
the planet, but he couldn’t offer his son what he really wanted: to become a Jedi Knight. When Qui-Gon Jinn discovered Xanatos, Crion
allowed the boy to be taken for training. However, he secretly maintained contact with his son. In Xanatos’ absense, Crion became
more and more greedy, and put into motion a plan to overtake a neighboring planet and steal its resources. Xanatos was drawn into the
plan, until Jedi Master Yoda sent Xanatos and Qui-Gon back to Telos on a mission. The exact nature of the mission was not provided,
but Qui-Gon quickly discovered the plot set in motion by Crion. Qui-Gon tried to expose the old man and his son – Qui-Gon’s own
Padawan apprentice – but the people of Telos instead formed two distinct fashions and sparked a civil war. In the battle, Qui-Gon was
forced to cut down Crion with his lightsaber, first cutting the fingers from one of Crion’s hands before dispatching him. Xanatos watched
in horror, then recovered one of the rings from his father’s severed fingers. He touched the hot metal to his cheek, leaving a crescent-
shaped scar as a reiminder of Crion’s death and Qui-Gon’s seeming treachery. (DR)

Cron Cluster
this ancient grouping of stars is located in the Auril Sector. It was amidst six of the original nien Auril Systems. Much of the Clusters was
destroyed during the Great Sith War, when Aleema tried to rip the core from one of the stars. She wanted to hurl the star into the midst
of an Old Republic fleet, in an effort to destroy the fleet. She succeeded in this, but she also ingnited the remaining stars in the cluster.
All ten stars went supernova as a result of the explosion, and formed what was later known as the Cron Drift. The explosion also
destroyed three of the Auril Systems, and devastated the planet Ossus. (TSW)
Cron Drift
this area of the Auril Sector, in close proximity to Nespis VIII, the Adegan System, and Carida, is the site of the remnants of a multi-star
supernova. (Dark Apprentice says that the supernova contains four stars, but The Sith War comics say that the supernova engulfed
ten stars.) During the Great Sith War, Aleema tried to use the Dark Side of the Force to rip the core from one of the stars in the Cron
Cluster. She had hoped to destroy the Old Republic fleet that was pursuing the Sith followers, but she hadn't prepared for the
possibility of the core igniting all the other solar masses in the Cluster. All of the stars ignited, going supernova at the same instant.
Aleema was, of course, killed in the blast, and the Cron Drift was born. The current stars in the system made up six of the original nine
Auril Systems. The rest were destroyed in the explosion. Following the genesis of the New Order, Ploovo 2-for-1 operated his criminal
business from the Cronf Drift. Han Solo and Chewbacca tried to run a clotheslegging operation there, but it failed. After the New
Republic defeated Grand Admiral Thrawn, it was discovered that Terpfen had been 'programmed' to meet the Caridan ambassador
Furgan within the Drift. (HSE, HSL, DA, DE2, XW, TSW)
Cronal
this Dark Jedi was a scientist as well and an adept with the Force. He attempted to twist the Trailian race into Dark Side monsters via

an Imperial Colonel who survived the death of the Emperor, Cronus was Delvardus' second-in-command. He became the de facto
leader of Delvardus' fleet when Daala executed all of the Imperial warlords at Tsoss Beacon. He aligned himself with Daala and
Pellaeon after seeing Delvardus' body and a holorecording of the summit. Cronus was a small but well-muscled man, with a full head of
black hair. Daala appointed Cronus to be the commanding officer of the 112 Victory-class Star Destroyers she had rounded up
following the execution of the warlords. He took the fleet on a galaxy-wide rampage of terror, striking at unprotected worlds and killing
countless numbers before splitting up his fleet. He took twenty ships to Yavin 4, to assist Daala in her attack there, while the remainder
of his fleet continued its rampage. Cronus was killed at Yavin 4 when a crippled Corellian gunship rammed his Star Destroyer, the 13X,
and destroyed it. (DS)

this was the name of the large hat worn by Boss Nass, and signified his position within the leadership of Otoh Gunga. (IG1)
Croym
this Dark Jedi Master discovered the location of the Heart of the Universe and hoped to use it to take control of the galaxy. He secreted
the gem away in his tower castle, located inside a barren, cold asteroid. The tower was sealed from the vacuum of space, and was
surrounded by a maze of physical and mental traps. Anyone trying to gain access would have to fend their way through random blaster
bolts, energy fields, Dark Side creatures, and incredible illusions. Croym lured a group of Alliance agents to his asteroid by making
information about the Heart available to them, hoping to discover a Force-sensitive being among them he could twist into as assistant
and slave. Unfortunately, the agents managed to see through Croyn's illusions and defeat the maze to recover the Heart. (GMS)
Crseih Station
a space station located on the fringes of the galaxy, Crseih is a collection of asteroids connected by tunnels and accessways. It was
built by the Empire (under Palpatine's New Order) as a research outpost. It was built near the dying Crseih star system. The goal of the
outpost was to discover a method by which the intense forces of the nearby black hole could be harnessed and used as a weapon. The
station was placed under the command of Hethrir by Darth Vader, following his appointment to Procurator of Justice. Hethrir added to
the station's mission, using it as a prison. Hethrir's cruelty toward his prisoners caused a rift in the Force which, when coupled with the
station's proximity to the crystal star, brought the being Waru into the galaxy. When the Empire fell, after the Battle of Endor, it was
believed that the station was deserted by the Empire. However, it was only Hethrir who left, biding his time in secrecy until he could
build the Empire back up. Waru remained behind, and developed a great following. Hethrir eventually re-surfaced, and used the station
as a sales point for his slaves. He later convened the first session of the Empire Reborn there, only to be thwarted by the New
Republic. When Waru consumed Hethrir, Waru returned to his own galaxy. The station is a hot, balmy workplace, since the shielding
which protects the station from the black hole's intense X-radiation give off tremendous amounts of heat. Since the Imperial influence
has left, the remaining residents have developed their own society, much of which is based around the religion of Waru. Following
Waru's return to his own galaxy, the station was moved away from the dying Crseih system and now orbits Coruscant. The New
Republic arrested all of the Imperial supporters on board. (CS)
Crseih
this double star system once consisted of a blue-white supergiant star and its twin, a small yellow star. When the supergiant exploded,
it caused two reactions: first, it collapsed onto itself, generating a large black hole; second, it caused the small yellow star to begin
crystallizing. The smaller star, which continued to orbit its double, was now being drawn into the black hole and subjected to the hole's
intense X-radiation, further hastening its crystallization. When the Empire built Crseih Station nearby, the crystal star was well on its
way to being swallowed by the black hole. The intense energy surrounding the system altered the fabric of the Force so radically, that it
allowed the anti-Force being Waru to enter the galaxy. The warped Force also affects those with Force-sensitivity, causing them to
become listless and suicidal. Luke Skywalker succombed to the intense energies while on the Crseih station. (CS)
Crumbling Lands
this was a rocky, arid region of the planet Moorja. The sedimentary rock of the region had been hollowed out over time by underwater

Crutag
this Taloron Hunter was known to boast that he had never failed to capture a target, and hated being compared to Boba Fett. This was
because many felt Crutag wasn't as skilled as Fett was. Crutag once pursued a group of Alliance agents from Kwenn Space Station to
Trinta, hoping to obtain the huge bounties on their heads. Crutag and his mercenary band traveled in the specialized starship Scent of
Fear. Once on Trinta, Crutag was sought out by Halagad Ventor. The former Jedi Knight wanted to draw on the dark energies of
Crutag's mind, hoping to increase his own connection to the Dark Side of the Force. However, Crutag and his team were defeated by
the Alliance agents and eliminated, cutting off Ventor's new link to the Dark Side. (DOE)

Cryovial
this is the name given to small tubes which can be used to transport chemicals or specimens. The cryovials are surrounded by a
freezing agent which is activated with a twist or shake. Once activated, the chemicals reduce the temperature of the vial’s contents to
the freezing point, allowing them to be transported without fear of spoilage. (CCR)
Cryptberry
native to the planet Necropolis, this large red berry is poisonous if consumed by humans and other humanoid species. Evazan used the
juice from these berries to poison the subjects he used during Project Starscream. (GOF2)
Crystal Fern
these silicon-based crystalline formations are strange, transparent growths that are found in some asteroid belts. The best crystal fern
specimens have been found in the Hoth asteroid belt, where they have been known grow between neighboring asteroids. The average
fern is several meters in height. When conditions are right, they can continue to grow outward, forming tangled webs. The ferns' ability
to grow like this, spanning asteroids, has led to theories that the fern is an actual lifeform. The crystal ferns are sought by collectors,
scientists, and profit-seekers, although they are incredibly hard to harvest without causing major damage to their structure. (ISU)
Crystal Jewel
this casino is located below the surface of Coruscant, just outside Imperial City. It had changed hands at least fifteen times before it
was renamed the Crystal Jewel, and it was the site of the sabacc match in which Han Solo won the planet Dathomir from Omogg the
Drackmarian. Under the name Crystal Jewel, it was where Jarril agreed to meet Solo to discuss the strange dealings going on in the
Smuggler's Run. They felt the repercussions of Dolph's bombing of the Senate Assembly Chamber there. (TNR)

Crystal Reef
this floating Mon Calamarian city was the largest of the resorts established on the planet in the wake of the Battle of Endor. It travelled
near the planet’s polar caps, providing its clientele with spectacular views of the icecaps and calving icebergs while offering the latest in
casinos and gambling games. It was from a base on Crystal Reef that Czethros hoped to begin distributing the spice he mined, once he
took control of Kessel. However, all of Czethros’ plans were thwarted by the young Jedi Knights from Luke Skywalker’s praxeum on
Yavin 4. They destroyed the initial cache of spice hidden in the arctic polar caps, and then helped remove the Black Sun operatives
hidden within the city. (CCR)
Crystal Snake
a transparent reptile native to the jungles of Yavin 4, the crystal snake can be detected two ways: by locating its beady, black eyes, or
by watching the light as it refracts through the snake's body. The bite of a crytsal snake is mildly poisonous to most humanoid races,
inducing sleep almost immediately. The snake's scales seems to be composed of diamond film. (HTF, JUS)
Crystal Spires
beautiful crystal formations found on the planet Cyimarra. (SWAJ)

Crystallite
this white stone was often used to create wondrous carvings, for the stone seemed to glow from within. Rumors held that crystallite was
formed from the ashes of a long-dead Twi'leki hero by the Nercathi clan. The ashes were supposedly compressed under extreme
pressure to form the crystals,and the crystals were used in carvings which comemmorated an ancient Twi'leki hero. Each carving,
representing the skull of the hero, stood for one of the three Twi'leki clan ceremonies - Jasshi'rr, Waala, and Keysshi. (SWJ12)

navigators on Alliance starships in return for anonymity and assistance. Note that this planet is named Crystal Nest in Alien Encounters.
(TA, AE)
CRX Tug
this is a nickname for the Cuirilla-Rayl Xylines-class spacetug. (TA)
CR90
A hammerheaded, fast transport ship built by the Corellian Engineering Corporation, often used as blockade runners because of their
speed and mobility. They have a modular interior, which can be modified for specific needs. They have a standard crew complement of
46-104, depending on the mission. Some military missions require a crew upwards of 165 men. These ships are 150 meters in length,
and can make 60 MGLT at sublight speeds. They are regarded as extremely vulnerable, however, since the primary solar collector and
stabilizer fin are located dorsally, and when disabled can cripple the ship's ability to maneuver. (SW, SCRE, SWSB)
During the Galactic Civil War, many Corellian Corvettes were modified to make up for the original design's weaknesses. The main solar
collectors and stabilizer fins were incorporated into the hull, creating a long, pod-like shape instead of the angular shape of the original
design. Most other shipboard components remained intact. (TIE)

this ancient race was extremely interested in the sciences as well as the Force, and they developed the Codex out of their curiosity with
how the Force affects the material world. When they first activated the Codex, it attracted the attention of the Dark Jedi Halbret, who
travelled to the Cthol homeworld to seek out the source of the strange energy he flelt. When he discovered the Codex, Hakbret uttery
destroyed the Cthol race and stole the Codex for his own uses. (GMH)
Cu-pa
this brightly-colored beast was a distant cousin of the tauntaun, but had evolved as a warm-weather creature. There were found on the
planet Nam Chorios, where they were used with limited success as mounts by the Therans and Oldtimers. Their mental capacity was
vastly inferior to that of a tauntaun, which is not very bright to begin with. The coloration of the cu-pa ranges from pink and pale blue to
tan and golden, and many have combinations of these colors. (POT)

this small corporation produced the Xylines-class space tug. (TA, PP)
Culroon
a human inhabitant of the planet Culroon III. (SWSB)
Culroon III
a planet known during the Old Republic, but for the most part ignored. The people of the planet were continually at war, and never got a
chance to develop any advanced technology. When Emperor Palpatine wanted to subjugate the planet, he sent a garrison there.
However, the Culroon people were able to obtain energy weapons from spacefaring, and they united under a man named Kloff to
oppose the Imperial yoke. (SWSB)

Cult of M'dweshuu
this ancient Nikto brotherhood was formed shortly after the Nikto race discovered the existence of the M'dweshuu Nova, well before the
formation of the Old Republic. Many Nikto believed that the powerful ability of the Nova to affect life on Kintan was worthy of admiration,
and developed a cult formed on the basis that they were as powerful as the Nova. The Cult rose quickly to power, and controlled much
of the planet in the years leading up to the arrival of the Hutts in the Si'Klaata Cluster. With the arrival of the Hutts, the Cult lost much of
its control, and was thought to have been disbanded. However, some 21,000 years later, the Cult re-emerged, and once again gained
the support of the Nikto people. The Cult rose quickly, and Churabba the Hutt was forced to take military actions against the Cult to
ensure her control. She bombed the Cult's headquarters, killing many of its leaders and leaving it to die. Much of this battle went
unnoticed by the Old Republic, which was deep in the throes of the Sith War. It is believed that remnants of the Cult survive even today,
hoping once again to rally the Nikto against their Hutt masters. (GG12)
Cunbus Locb
tihs disreputable Sullustan was known as a gambler with a penchant for fine art. His personal ship, the Distant Wind, was decorated
with the finest sculptures and holopainting. When he discovered that Imperial Moff Ammar possessed the Stars and Moons flatsculpt,
Locb arranged to cheat Ammar out of the artwork in a round of sabacc. When Ammar learned that he had been swindled, he initiated
an all-out search for Locb. In the end, Locb was cornered and then killed in a firefight. No sign of the Stars and Moons was ever found,
on Locb himself or inside the Distant Wind. This was because Locb had stashed the artwork in a secret compartment, and Ammar's
forces failed to discover it. In a strange twist of fate, Ammar put the Distant Wind up for auction, with the Stars and Moons still hidden
inside. (SS)
Cundertol
this Bakuran Senator served on the New Republic's Defense Council during the Yevethan Purge. He was strongly xenophobic, but hid
it well during Senate and Council sessions. However, Cundertol was also prone to drunken stupors, consuming great quantities of Doan
wine when he couldn't handle Senatorial pressures. He detested Etahn A'baht, and once referred to the commander of the Fifth Battle
Group as General "Eating-A-Boat." Note that this jibe only works if one of the following is true: the Basic language is very close to the
English language, or “eating a boat” is an English translation of a Basic joke. (SOL)
Cuor
this Brosin word described the single braid of shoulder-lengthhair worn by most Brosin females. (AIR)
Cuplatt, Felben
this employee of Cosmohaul Shipping was a staff aide to Vice President Crizby Rumbo. It was Cuplatt who monitored the loss of
cargoes to pirates. Cosmohaul had been receiving escorts from the New Republic, since many of the attacks on Cosmohaul ships were
waylayed by supposed Imperial agents. The New Republic was forced to withdraw its escorts to shore up defenses on military fronts,
and Cuplatt was left with the task of finding mercenaries to escort the cargo ships and ambush the pirates. (SWJ9)

(GG8)
Curse of Sycorax
this ancient curse could be revisited upon the modern natives of the planet Necropolis if certain traditions were not adhered to by them.
The Master of Cerements was reponsible for ensuring the curse was never invoked. The curse stems from the ancient witch, Sycorax,
who claimed she could bring the dead back to life. When the ancient natives of Necropolis believed she was a fake, they killed her own
son and demanded that she bring him back to life as proof. Sycorax died of a broken heart, but not before she leveled the curse on the
planet's inhabitants. The Curse of Sycorax states that, should the natives of Necropolis ever ignore their dead, the dead would rise up
and take control of the planet. The curse suposedly knows no boundaries, and could engulf the entire planet. Doctor Evazan used the
legendary curse to hide his experiments in reanimating the dead. The bodies he successfully reanimated added to Pylum's fear that the
curse was being breached. (GOF2)
Cuthas, Naroon
this dark-skinned human, noticeable by his long hair and moustaches, was Jabba the Hutt's majordomo before Bib Fortuna acquired
the position. The Essential Guide to Characters says that Jabba killed Cuthas when his usefulness wore out. However, Tales from
Jabba's Palace indicates that the aging Cuthas was demoted, and became Jabba's personal talent scout. He discovered the Max Rebo
Band one night in Mos Eisley. (TJP, EGC)
Cuticulin
this was the organic material which formed the exoskeleton of the Kamarian race. It was strong enough to act as body armor, and also
served to hold water in during extended periods in the desert. (AE)
Cutlass
this Imperial Patrol Craft survived the fall of Emperor Palpatine and remained near the planet Sev Tok. It intercepted the Argent Lady
after Xalto Sneerzick’s emancipation virus went amok among some R5 droids. The captain of the Cutlass figured it was an unarmed
cargo vessel, despite the fact that the crew was seven people short due to a logistical problem. The Cutlass’s crew boarded the Argent
Lady, but the freelance mercenaries hired by Felben Cuplatt managed to overtake them and escape with the Argent Lady intact.
(SWJ9)
Cutter, Hugo
a member of the Red Moons mercenary unit, Cutter was a former student at the prestigious Imperial Engineering Academy.
Recognizable by his thin build and unruly red hair, Hugo was expelled from the school because of his fascination with blowing things
up, rather than creating them. His parents were part of the Imperial nobility, and they tried to reduce the embarrassment of having their
son expelled by locking him up in an attic. Cutter eventually escaped, and joined the Alliance. He used his demolitions skills - which
were ad-hoc and spur-of-the-moment at best - for the Alliance, and met Andrephan Stormcaller. Stormcaller recognized the unique
potential of Cutter, and recruited him to join the Red Moons. He was part of the team sent to Gabredor III to rescue the children of the
Cantras Gola ambassador from the Karazak Slavers Guild. A high-ranking New Republic general once said that “Hugo Cutter is best
described as a high-yield bomb looking for a target without a guidance system.” (SWJ8, TFE)
Cutter, Mendel
this man was a member of the Phosphura Belt Pirates during the Galactic Civil War. A former employee of Industrial Automaton, he
was highly skilled in the construction and programming of droids. (LAA)
Cutter’s Way
this Lantillian short hauler was modified by its original owner, from a pleasure ship to a freighter. One of the modifications was the
addition of a power flux surger hard-wired into the system, which can provide on-demand power for shields and weapons. This
additional power pushes these systems well beyond their normal rating without much overall degradation. (SWJ9)
Cutting Blaster
this laser device is used to cut through materials during excavation or construction. Despite its name, it is not designed as a weapon.

Cy'een
a deep-sea creature native to Chad III, these huge, long-necked fish-lizards vocalize a mournful song. Many people on the planet made
their living moving with the herds of cy'een, harvesting the plants and smaller fish for food. Unlike most other species of the planet, the
cy'een are infinitely wild and untamable. The phrase "riding the cy'een" became a local expression for any challenging or dangerous
task. (COJ, SWJ10)
Cyanogen
this dense, yellowish gas is deadly to most any species which survives in oxygen atmospheres. Certain creatures do live in cyanogen-
based atmospheres, but are unable to survive in oxygen. (FOSE)
Cyax
this star was located in an uncharted area of the galaxy held sacred by the Hutts, containing Da Soocha. The star Cyax was the

Cygnante
this Sienar Ships Mark I transport was owned and operated by The Shield. The craft had been equipped with a pair of double lasers
and a turret-mounted laser cannon. It was heavily upgraded to withstand battle, and was given at least five false transponder codes in
case The Shield was intercepted by Imperial forces. (CRO)
Cygnus Spaceworks
manufacturers of Lambda-class shuttles and starship components, Cygnus has strong ties to Sienar Fleet Systems and the Imperial
Navy. They filled the gap in starship requirements for mobile transports and shuttles, since SFS concentrated on small starfighters and
Kuat Drive Yards concentrated on capital ships. They took the original SFS Lambda-class shuttle design and created a number of
variants, such as the Xg-1 StarWing gunboat and the Delta-class shuttle. (XW, EGV)
Cyimarra
this planet is home to a wonderful natural formation known as the Crystal Spires. The planets Corellia and Corulag both sent delegates
to Cyimarra to gather data on the spires. They hoped to recreate them on Coruscant. (SWAJ)
Cynabar
this was an alias used by Platt Okeefe to prowl the newsnets during the Galactic Civil War. Her secret was discovered by Andor Javin
and his V1-CH droid, after searching through hundreds of thousands of combinations of syntax, language, and grammar. The droid
discovered that the word “Cynabar,” when translated into Ithorian and then displayed using Huttese character system, reveals
something that looks like “Plttke.” Javin then put the pieces of puzzle together, noting that Cynabar and Okeefe both disappeared from
Nar Shaddaa when the Empire nearly caught Cynabar on the vertical world. (SWJ8)
Cynabar's Infonet
this underground newsfeed was created by Platt Okeefe, in an effort to keep free traders and smugglers aware of the actions of the
Empire and the true state of the galaxy during the height of the New Order. (SWJ13)
Cyperill
a type of tree that grows on Chad, the leaves of the cyperill appear almost like hair. (QE, GG4)
Cypher Bos
this Nalrithian bounty hunter almost captured Han Solo on Ord Mantell, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Cypher Bos wore a set of
highly-polished plate armor, which helped hide his appearance. He also had a series of cybernetic pain inhibitors implanted along his
spine, in order to allow him to absorb more punishment. During his hunt for Solo, he killed his own eggmate brother, Phoedris Bos, who
was known to be sympathetic to the Alliance. Cypher Bos then posed as Phoedris and nearly captured Han – along with Leia Organa
and Luke Skywalker – but they managed escape. Their escape led them into the sights of the bounty hunter Skorr. (ROM, SWG)
Cyrillia
this planet was known for its production of pit droids during the decades prior to the Battle of Yavin. The natives of the planet had
virtually cornered the market for pit droids, producing incredibly resilient models at a cheap price. (OWS)
Cyrlus
an Alliance platform supply station destroyed during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE)
Cyrospac-77
this was a model of waveskimmer produced for civilian and small military usage. This 7-meter-long craft required a pilot and gunner to
operate, and was armed with a turret-mounted twin laser cannon. (HAS)
Cyrs, Jobany
this descendant of Kirr Cyrs was a native of Socorro, and was hired by the Alliance to scout the planet's suitability as a base of
operations. A freelance scout by trade, Jobany was sympathetic to the Alliance's cause during the Galactic Civil War, and helped them
scout many bases. However, his ancestry gave him a deep sense of nostalgia, and his scouting reports often read like travelogues. He
traveled the galaxy in the modified Vangaard Pathfinder Outward Bound. (BSS)
Cyrs, Kirr
this man was one of the first beings to scout the planet Socorro. He was also the historian of the first colony established on the planet.
Kirr Cyrs was generally credited with saying that all life born on Socorro eventually dies on Socorro. (BSS)

CZ
a series of droids manufactured by Serv-O-Droid for communications and translation. These humanoid automatons have large eye-like
pods on their heads and boxy features. They are somewhat outdated, but were proficient in scrambling and encrypting transmissions.
Some were programmed as security or defense drones that warned their masters of imminent attacks. (CCG, CCG7)

Czerka Arms
manufacturers of hold-out blasters, flame weapons, and handheld projectile weapons. (RASB, ROE)
Czethros
this tall, broad-shouldered man had close-cropped, moss-green hair. A silver cyborg implant wrapped completely around his head, and
had several access ports jacked directly into his skull. The implant covered his eyes, and a single red optical laser allowed him to see.
One of the more powerful lieutenants in the Black Sun organization, Czethros was imprisoned in the Kessel spice mines after being
arrested by Imperial officers on Ord Mantell, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Czethros and his companion, Briff, had been trying to
capture Han Solo by threatening to kill Chewbacca. Solo countered by stealing Czethros’ starship and flying into several Imperial no-fly
zones and committing other infractions. Han returned to Ord Mantell and rescued Chewbacca just before a squadron of stormtroopers
arrested Czethros and Briff. Czethros found employment on Kessel as an assistant to Moruth Doole, and later returned to Ord Mantell
upon his release. Czethros never forgot his Black Sun connections, and soon found employment with Durga the Hutt. After Durga's
demise, he decided to lay low and became a respectable businessman, and was influential in the yearly planning of the Blockade
Runners Derby. This served as the perfect front from which to rebuild Black Sun in his own image. It was Czethros who then arranged
rd
for Solo to act as Grand Marshall of the 93 Derby, all the while plotting his revenge against Han. His initial plans failed, but Czethros
was undaunted. He knew that he was rebuilding a criminal empire through the remnants of Black Sun, and would soon have enough
resources to eliminate Solo once and for all. Czethros continued to expand his organization, learning from all of Black Sun's previous
mistakes. He tried to take control of much of Cloud City's revenues, including SkyCenter Galleria, but was again foiled in his plans by
Lando Calrissian and the Solo children. Sometime later, Czethros placed key Black Sun agents in high positions around the galaxy, and
developed a plan which used precision communications to simultaneously activate them. On cue, they would disrupt New Republic
governments and provide enough distraction for Czethros to move in and take control. First, however, Czethros tried to take over the
spice mines of Kessel. His plan nearly succeeded, but the Jedi Knights Jaina Solo, Zekk, and Lowbacca managed to foil his
communications plan and eliminate the threat. New Republic forces were quickly dispatched to Kessel, and Czethros was forced to
flee. He was unable to get away cleanly, however, and fell into a vat of molten carbonite after tripping over a dead mine worker. His
frozen form was recovered by the New Republic and taken into custody. (ROM, TCC, CCR)
C2-R4
1) a droid who approached Wuher in the alleyways of Mos Eisley, seeking asylum from the Jawas just before Ben Kenobi and Luke
Skywalker booked passage aboard the Millennium Falcon. C2-R4 resembles an R2 unit in its basic shape, but it is covered with various
bulbs and box-shaped appendages. Two whip-like extensors and two armatures sprout from the droid's central section, and much of its
dome has been replaced with a toothy grill. He was modified over the years to perform a number of household and kitchen tasks, but
was abandoned on Tatooine. The Jawas wanted to take him apart for scrap, but Wuher rescued him after seeing Greedo killed in the
Mos Eisley cantina. Wuher had just gotten the idea to use Rodian pheromones in the liqueur he was brewing Jabba the Hutt, and he
asked C2-R4 to help him brew it. (TME)

D & S Supercircuit
this was a model of extremely fast, high-speed starship navigational computer, available during the height of the New Order. (SL)
D-Mot
this was the name of Raquid Krev's security droid. Krev used the droid to guard his ship, the Lexus Primal. A group of spice-jackers
once fooled the droid into letting them onto Krev's ship by disguising one of their members as Krev himself. D-Mot allowed the false
Krev to deactivate itself, thereby allowing the spice-jackers to steal the cargo. (GG11)
D-Prog
a shortened name for the Corporate Sector System Development Programs, which provided aid to frontier worlds forgotten by the Old
Republic. D-Progs were a product of COMPNOR, and were one of many examples of COMPNOR's ability to exploit the Old Republic's
weaknesses. (ISB)
D-tape
see Detonite Tape. (ROE)
D-type Fighter
this is the basic Yevethan starfighter design. The D-type was named for its delta-wing formation. They were 12 meters in length, and
were flown by a single pilot. Each was armed with three laser cannons, mounted on each wing and the tail. Like TIE Fighters, these
ships were not hyperspace-capable, but they did have shields. (SOL, CTD)
D-V9
this silver-plated humanoid droid was Hoole's research assistant. Equipped with an OmniTask brain, Deevee faithfully tagged along
when Hoole and the Arranda children got into trouble with the Empire. He successfully negotiated with Meego for the purchase of the
Shroud, then used the data in the ship's computer memory to create an anti-serum which negated the effects of Doctor Evazan's
reanimation serum. This saved the planet of Necropolis from the assault of Evazan's zombie army, and freed his human friends from
Evazan's schemes. After encountering the Nightmare Machine on Nespis 8, D-V9 took a blaster bolt meant for Tash. After several
more misadventures, Deevee decided that he had had enough. After some grueling repairs, Deevee retired to work at a Galactic
Research Facility on Koaan. Hoole manumitted D-V9, allowing him free access to the facility. (GOF1, GOF2, GOF6, GOF7)
D-127X
an Alliance probe droid, operating as a sentry in the Atrivis Sector. It alerted the inhabitants of the planet Mantooine of an impending
Imperial invasion. The droid was destroyed, but not before it relayed information on the Imperials to Mantooine. (RASB, XW)
D-3P-O2
this specially-programmed protocol droid served Vost Tyne as a secretary at the hyperbaride plant on Marca. It was completely loyal to
Tyne, and was programmed with a Core-accented voice. (POM)
D-34
an Imperial outpost in the Javin Sector, it was used heavily just after the Battle of Hoth as an intercept point. The Imperials attempted to
drive the fleeing Alliance ships into the Javin Sector and past D-34. The station was eventually captured by the Alliance, with the help of
the Mugaari pirates. The Empire later recovered it. (TIE)
D-4
this was the designation of the New Republic Navy’s antiradiation mitigation procedure, used when a starship’s main reactor is
damaged. (POT)
D-4R5
a humanoid droid which was assigned to Governor Grigor on M'haeli, D-4R5 was shot, and his memory wiped, as a device for Ranulf
Trommer to use to infiltrate Mora's confidence. She was able to completely repair the droid, and it was put to use by the Alliance
supporters on the planet. (ROC)
D-4R6
this protocol droid was owned by Merrik, on M’haeli. (ROC)
D-89
this New Republic Intelligence ferret ship was assigned to the Fifth Battle Group as a trailer for the Teljkon vagabond. It was used by
Pakkpekatt to violate the twelve-kilometer zone around the vagabond, after the fleet's interdiction picket was set up. Later, when the
Lady Luck gained entrance to the zecured zone, D-89 was sent in to try and intercept the pleasure yacht using the same code.
Unfortunately, the code had changed, and D-89 was destroyed by the vagabond before it finally managed to jump to hyperspace. (BTS)
D/Square Decoder
this decryption and deciphering system was used in military and police databanks, as well as Imperial Ubiqtorate bases, and was quite
powerful. It was designed and manufactured by Fedukowski. (VOF)
D’aelgoth Sector
Han Solo and Xaverri once conned the Assistant Secretary to the Imperial Moff of this sector out of all his money while implicating him
in a treasonous crime. (THG)
d'Ahndole, Parsol
this man was an adventurer and hero of the early days of the Old Republic. His exploits were later the fodder for several holofeatures.
(CRO)
D'asima, Paloma
this old woman was one of the Eleven Elders of the People of Emberlene, in the years following the Battle of Endor. On the
recommendation of Karoly D'ulin, Paloma travelled to Yaga Minor to meet with Moff Disra and Grodin Tierce to discuss an alliance
between the Mistryl and the new Empire. Flim, disguised as Grand Admiral Thrawn, was also present, throwing Paloma off her guard.
Both Disra and Tierce were aware that Garm Bel Iblis had planned to raid Yaga Minor for a copy of the Caamas Document, and had
arranged for the meeting to take place during the assault. They hoped it would prove to Paloma that the Empire was serious about
taking control of the galaxy. (VOF)
D'Asta, Baron
this man served as one of the most powerful and wealthy members of the Imperial Interim Ruling Council. During the reign of Emperor
Palpatine, D'Asta had done business with Jahren Sinn on Nez Peron. His place on the Council was filled by his daughter, Feena, when
he became ill at an advanced age. However, he still held a position of power among the Imperials, controlling the area of space known
as the D'Astam Sector. Some five years later, he was enraged to learn that Xandel Carivus had Feena imprisoned on nebulous charges
of treason, and sent his fleet of warships against those controlled by Carivus. D'Asta's fleet was too powerful, and reduced Carivus'
forces quickly. When Carivus released Feena, the Baron was loath to give up the battle, but did so to recover his daughter. (CE2)
D'Asta, Feena
this silver-haired woman rose to power as a member of the Imperial Interim Ruling Council, taking her father's place when he became
ill. She had a plan to make peace with the New Republic, in order to help the Council gain some legitimacy, but met with stern
opposition from Nolyds. When Nolyds was assassinated by a bomb hidden in a message disk, the other Council members decided that
it must have been an inside job. They placed D'Asta on their list of suspects, but had no direct proof of her involvement. She later asked
for a vote of no-confidence in Xandel Carivus' ability to lead the Council, but was only supported by Lord Manos. It was later revealed
that the real Feena D'Asta had been kidnapped by Grappa the Hutt and cloned by Macus Kayniph.The clone was then inserted into the
Council, in an effort to further the interests of Grappa and Black Sun. Kayniph sold her to Grappa the Hutt. Meanwhile, the clone was
accused of treason against the Empire by Xandel Carivus and arrested. Back at Grappa's lair on Genon, Mirith Sinn tried to rescue the
real Feena, whose father had been in business deals with Sinn's fiance. Sinn was caught, and Grappa gave her to the Zanzibar.
Meanwhile, the arrest of D'Asta's clone forced her father to strike out against Xandel Carivus. He mustered the might of his own
Imperial fleet and decimated Carivus' forces in a short battle. On Xo, Kir Kanos rescued Mirith Sinn, and she returned to Grappa to take
custody of the real Feena D'Asta. Mirith brought Kir Kanos and the real Feena back to Ord Cantrell, where she presented her to Baron
D'Asta. He was unsure of who to believe until Kanos and Sinn explained the plan, beginning with Carnor Jax's initial schemes. (CE2)
D'Astan Sector
this was the area of the galaxy controlled by Baron D'Asta and his fleet. (CE2)
D'farian
this alien race, a member of the New Republic, sided with the Diamalans in the Caamas Incident. (VOF)
D'gant
this man was an executive of a Vendusii Crystal mine during the Galactic Civil War. (HR)
D'harhan
this being was a member of a near-human species which implanted various mechanical systems into their bodies, often replacing major
limbs and organs with cybernetic weapons. They coordinated their actions via an internal communications package. D'harhan was also
a bounty hunter, and was well-suited to the task. His body was covered by heavy, black armor which protected the power and support
systems for the huge laser cannon which served as its head. The weapon had an enormous bore, and was studded with sophisticated
optical systems that allowed D'harhan to “see” its surroundings as well as target its prey. The subsystems of the laser were draped
down his back, along his spine. The immense weight of all these systems would have overbalanced a normal creature, but D'harhan
also had a segmented, armored “tail” which extended from his lower back and hips. Heavy, black gloves protected D'harhan’s hands,
and thick-soled booted supported his feet. In order to communicate, D'harhan used an archaic keyboard attached to its central
processors, and typed out its words. The words were interpreted and “spoken” by a vocabulator module. Boba Fett, the closest thing
D'harhan had to a friend, had been present as his creation, and partnered with the near-human on a couple of occasions. D'harhan was
known to shoot first and not bother to ask questions later. The last occasion was the hunt for Oph Nar Dinnid, in which D'harhan was
forced to give up his weapons systems in order to land on the planet Circumtore. This nearly killed D'harhan, for his weapons systems
were his primary essence. Fett maintained his life support with minimal power until his skills were needed. Then, a hidden weapons
cache unloaded from within the Shell Hutt fortress, and D'harhan’s main laser cannon was reactivated. D'harhan managed to eliminate
a huge number of the mercenaries hired by Gheeta to protect the Shell Hutts, but their combined firepower eventually felled D'harhan.
Boba Fett then used the near-human’s laser cannon – which was still operational – to destroy Gheeta. It was believed that D'harhan
was the last of his kind. (MA)
D'ian Orchid
a lush, tropical vine which produces beautiful flowers. (HSR)
D'Ink, Dineas
this man was just 10 years old when the Sixty Hour War wiped out the city of Paran. His parents were killed in the assault, and he was
taken in by the Empire. Imperial forces brainwashed him with propaganda, and D'Ink grew up believing in the righteousness of the New
Order. At the age of sixteen, he was recruited by Tolamyn Cayble and joined the Imperial Security Bureau. A smug and self-centered
man, D'Ink volunteered to go undercover and infiltrate the Friends of Paran. He gained the confidence of its members very quickly,
saving their lives several times in brief struggles with Imperial forces. However, he later led Imperial forces directly to the Friends of
Paran base in Knellis. He was cornered by the Alliance team supporting the Friends, and died in a brief but intense firefight. When he
didn't report back to Cayble, Cayble believed that D'Ink was still trying to capture the rebels. This allowed the Friends of Paran and the
Alliance team to escape Derilyn and destroy the Star Destroyer Brazen. (OE)
D’kar
this Alliance agent one worked with Airen Cracken. In order to escape a group of lizard-men who had captured them, the group drew
straws to see who would plant a bomb to distract the creatures. D’kar drew the short straw, and set out to explode the bomb. The only
available “bomb” was created by plugging a positive flow detonator to a negative flow coupler. The “bomb” exploded the instant D’kar
connected the two pieces, and was killed immediately. The rest of the group escaped. (CFG)
D'lak
this Twi'leki spice merchant was a minor dealing in the Outer Rim, buying and selling spice along the Corellian Trade Spine. He was
known to be a fair-weather friend to independent spacers, willing to employ them but unwilling to help them if they got into a jam. (PSG)
D'larah
one of the most affluent cities on the planet Demophon, it was not as restricted as other cities during the New Order because the city's
governor was related to an Imperial official. The city of D'larah was designed with pleasure in mind, and is visualy appealing. (SN)
D'larah Palm
a tree which has been genetically altered to grow in the domed city of D'larah, this palm has bright crimson leaves and produces a deep
red fruit which has a sweet milk. (SN)
D'oemir Bear
this huge, carnivorous mammal was native to the Jhunia snow plains of the planet Neftali, and was hunted for its meat and fur. They
were the apex predator on Neftali prior to the appearance of humans and Whiphids, and was nearly hunted to extinction. They were
solitary hunters, and the sharp drop in their numbers resulted in their being protected. Hunters were still allowed to take d'oemir,
provided that they paid up front for a license and a guide. The average d'oemir bear measured two meters in height when fully erect.
(BSS)
D'olop Range
a range of mountains found on the planet M'haeli, the D'olop are the location of many of the planet's best dragite mines. (ROC)
D'rag
a Starshipwright working for Aerospace Engineers, Inc., who with Vinda puts out a collection request for the 2,500 credits owed to them
by Han Solo. They have issued eight requests for payment, and Han had ignored them all until Spray showed up to repossess his ship.
(HSR)
D'Skar
this planet is the first planet in the Coyn System. It is a hot, rocky, volcanic wasteland. The name "D'Skar" means "dagger" in the
Coynese language. (PG)
D'skar
this was the name of the traditional Coynite dagger used in combat. (OE)
d’Tana, Keil
one of the early aliases used by Han Solo, during his tenure with Garris Shrike. He later tried to use the alias in order to sell the
Talisman to Truthful Toryn, but the Duros was already aware of the fact that the ship was stolen. He saw through the alias, but offered
to take the ship off Han’s hands for scrap prices. Han was forced to accept the offer. (TPS)
D'trel
at the height of the New Order, this was the most powerful of the Gorothite j'ber clans. (AE)
D’ukal, Shada
a Mistryl warrior, she was part of Manda D'ulin's team during the middle years of the New Order. When the team was paid to secure the
Hammertong project, the mission went sour and Manda was killed. Shada and Karoly D'ulin managed to recover the Hammertong, but
were forced to Tatooine in a stolen strike cruiser. In trying to secure passage, Shada impersonated Brea Tonnika and went into the Mos
Eisley cantina just before Ben Kenobi and Luke Skywalker arrived to book passge to Alderaan. In a bizarre twist of fate, the real Brea
Tonnika had left just three hours before Shada arrived. This tipped off Riij Winward, who was on guard at the Mos Eisley jail. He let
Shada free, but could not get her to give up the Hammertong. She eventually found a way to get a section of the weapon off Tatooine
and into the hands of the Alliance. Shada later became the bodyguard of the smuggler Mazzic, using her sharp-edged skills and knife-
like fingernail inserts to keep Mazzic safe. The Mistryl society had allowed her to be employed by Mazzic, hoping to obtain wealth for
Emberlene as Mazzic’s organization grew. When the smuggler’s company failed to live up to their expectations, the Mistryl sent Karoly
to intercept Shada and return her to Emberlene for re-assignment. Shada balked at this, and a struggle ensued. Shada managed to
defeat Karoly and flee from both Mazzic and the Mistryl. She then tried to meet up with Leia Organa-Solo to offer her services as a
warrior to the New Republic. She tried calling, but her calls were always rerouted. So, she infiltrated a secret meeting between Leia and
Talon Karrde at the Orowood Tower, but she ended up working for Karrde as part of the mission to find out where Jorj Car’das was
hiding. After finding Car'das on Exocron and defeating Rei'kas, Shada learned from Car'das the true history of Emberlene. He offered
her a datacard that contained the names of the mercenaries who destroyed the planet, as well as offering a second datacard. Shada
decided that it was time the Mistryl moved on from their needs for revenge, and took the second card. It contained histories of Flim,
Grodin Tierce, and Moff Disra, which she and Karrde returned to Admiral Pellaeon to use. After the Caamas Incident was resolved and
a peace treaty was placed on the table, Shada agreed to work for the new Intelligence agency Karrde set up to share information
between the Empire and the New Republic. (TME, TLC, SOP, VOF)
D’ulin, Karoly
a Mistryl warrior, she was Manda D'ulin's sister and a part of Manda's team shortly before the Battle of Yavin. When the team was paid
to secure the Hammertong project, the mission went sour and Manda was killed. Karoly and Shada D'ukal managed to recover the
Hammertong, but were forced to Tatooine in a stolen strike cruiser. In trying to secure passage, Karoly impersonated Shenni Tonnika
and went into the Mos Eisley cantina just before Ben Kenobi and Luke Skywalker appeared, trying to book passage to Alderaan. In a
bizarre twist of fate, the real Shenni Tonnika had left just three hours before Karoly arrived. This tipped off Riij Winward, who was on
guard at the Mos Eisley jail. He let Karoly free, but could not get her to give up the Hammertong. Karoly was later sent to Borcorash to
“recover” Shada, for the Mistryl felt that Mazzi’c organization wasn’t helping them anymore. Shada defeated her in a brief struggle and
escaped. Karoly continued to pursue her, nearly catching her on Coruscant before Shada joined Talon Karrde. Karoly continued her
pursuit, although she had very little to go on. She stowed away on the Lady Luck when Lando Calrissian, Han Solo, Lobot, and Moegid
traveled to Bastion to try and recover a copy of the Caamas Document. There, she stumbled across Zothip and his team, and decided
to see if she could settle an old score with them. Instead, she found herself in the midst of a power struggle between Zothip and Moff
Disra. When Zothip and his men tried to fight their way out, Karoly took the opportunity to attack. She and Major Tierce took out several
of the pirates, and Karoly managed to kill Zothip with a knife to his spine just as he tried to assault Disra. After Control managed to take
over the Cavrilhu Pirates, Disra and Flim - disguised as Thrawn - offered Karoly and the Mistryl a chance to serve the new Empire.
Karoly agreed to bring Paloma D'asima to Yaga Minor, in order to discuss an alliance. The alliance was killed before it could be
created, though, when Admiral Pellaeon arrived on the scene and exposed Disra, Tierce, and Flim for their true selves. Karoly then
accompanied D'asima back to Emberlene. (TME, SOP, VOF)
D’ulin, Manda
a Mistryl team leader, she was approached by Dr. Kellering to help guard the Hammertong project. However, in trying to ascertain the
job's scope, she was killed in an ambush. Her sister Karoly took over command of their group, and managed to obtain the Hammertong.
(TME)
D’vouran
this strange planet was bioengineered by Borborygmus Gog for the Empire as part of Project Starscream. D'vouran appeared to be a
normal, temperate world with rollin ghills, dense forests, and salty oceans. It had a breathable atmosphere, and Gog had it peopled with
the enigmatic Enzeen race. It was discovered when the Misanthrope crashed into it and sent out a distress call. The accident was
quickly covered up, although the planet was rumored to be the richest and most beautiful planet within 1,000 light-years, rumors which
helped fuel its tourist trade. The tourists to the planet often had trouble finding it, since the planet seemed to move about on its own,
and had no native system. In reality, the planet was somewhat symbiont with the Enzeen, a relationship engineered by Gog in an
attempt to create life. The Enzeen were outwardly friendly, which allowed them to draw visitors into the forests. There, the planet would
open itself up and swallow the visitors, bringing them to the Heart of D'vouran and deriving sustenance from their bodies. In return, the
Enzeen were allowed to siphon off a small portion of D'vouran's life-force for their own sustenance. Eventually, the planet outgrew its
creators, consuming the scientists who remained on the planet and breaking free of their control. It traveled like this until Mammon
Hoole caught up to it. In fury, the planet tried to consume Hoole's ship as it fled, but only consumed itself in a spasm of rage. It
suddenly reappeared, seveal light-years away, shortly afterward. (GOF1, GOF2)
D'we'mouk
this ancient Nikto represented his people in their negotiations with the Hutts, before the birth of the Old Republic. He signed the
agreement which indentured the Nikto people into Hutt servitude for eternity. (GG12)
D'Wopp
a male Whiphid, and Valarian's chosen mate. He is a hunter of some renown. He tries to skip out on his wedding night to hunt down
Han Solo, after Jabba the Hutt put out a bounty on Solo's head. This enraged Valarian, and a huge fight broke out at their reception.
D'Wopp was returned to his homeworld of Toola in various parts. (TME)
Da Soocha
a planet with five moons in the Cyax system, in the Huttese language, Da Soocha means 'Waking Planet.' It is a water-covered world,
which lended some credence to the Hutt legends of the Cyax system including a planet with an intelligent, godlike ocean. However,
from all initial probes, Da Soocha's ocean is as normal as any other ocean. Admiral Ackbar had planned to rescue his fellow Mon
Calamari from the Emperor’s World Devastators by transporting them to Da Soocha. (DE1, DESB)
Da Soocha 5
Da Soocha's fifth moon, home of the New Republic's Pinnacle Base. It was chosen for the Pinnacle Base following the outbreak of civil
war on Coruscant, primarily because its location was unknown to everyone but the Hutts. It is called the Pinnacle Moon because of its
unique landscape. The huge gravitational pull of Da Soocha has created large tidal forces on the moon. These tides eventually washed
away all loose sediment, revealing huge spires of rock that were spewed from volcanoes eons ago. These pinnacles are home for the
Ixlls. The moon was destroyed by the resurrected Emperor Palpatine when he fired his Galaxy Gun at the moon, in an effort to
eradicate the New Republic. (DE1, DESB, EE)
DA-series Droid
this form of automaton was developed by the New Republic and used as scavengers at battle sites. As directed by Operation Flotsam
and the Historic Battle Site Preservation Act, these droids were used to gather information information from any recovered physical
evidence from a battle site, prior to release for public viewing. These droids were often accompanied by SM-series scavenger droids,
which collected the physical evidence for them. (CTD)
Da'Gara
this Yuuzhan Vong Prefect was in command of the primary invasion force launched at the known galaxy. Da'Gara was charged with
executing the initial assaults on those planets which were the first Vector Prime objectives. His career was ended quickly after the loss
of the Helska base, and his failure nearly ruined the career of Nom Anor. (VP, HT)
Da'k, Winslau
this former Jedi student was on his way to a bright future, until he passed within the presence of Darth Vader. From that time on,
Winslau sought to learn more about the Dark Side of the Force. Winslau outsmarted his Jedi Master and imprisoned him on Morcanth,
using his prowess with the Force to obtain wealth and luxury. When a group of New Republic agents and Jedi students infiltrated
Morcanth, Winslau was defeated in combat. The agents released his old master, who was frail and dying but able to escape. (GMS)
Da’nor
one of the most unusual planets in the galaxy, Da’nor is located in the Delantine system near Romm. It is unusual in that it goes
through four seasonal changes each day, as it orbits not only the Delantine sun but two other small stars. The planet undergoes
incredible change, and the plant and animal species which inhabit the world have adapted to the changes in order to survive. The
primary species of creatures which live on the world are the ectotherms and a species of large, predatory birds. (SA2)
Daala
an Imperial Navy Admiral (the only female in any Imperial command position) in charge of the Maw Installation. She was educated at
the Academy on Carida, and excelled at everything her teachers could throw at her. Unfortunately, being female in the Imperial Navy
meant that she was constantly overlooked for promotions and awards. This angered her, but she struck back silently, creating an alter
ego for herself in the Academy's computers. Her alias quickly became known as one of the Empire's brightest naval minds, and even
Grand Moff Tarkin took notice. When he arrived at Carida to take this military prodigy under his wing, he was stymied by the fact that
the physical person did not exist. He dug deeper into the computer records and discovered Daala's ruse. Though he was Imperial to the
core, Tarkin realized that her genius could not be wasted any longer. He took Daala with him as a personal attache, and promoted her
in the field. Her promotion to Admiral was presented by Grand Moff Tarkin, and Palpatine may have been unaware of it. She was
placed in command of the small fleet guarding the Maw Installation, where she stayed for ten years, cut off from the outside galaxy.
When the Maw Installation was discovered by Han Solo and Kyp Durron, she was forced into action against a vast, unknown enemy
and with limited, outdated resources. Her initial strikes against the New Republic were successful, but she lost three-quarters of her
fleet in the process. She fled to the deep Core Systems, hiding from the New Republic while trying to unite the various Imperial warlords
who also hid there, squabbling amongst themselves. She eventually met up with Pellaeon, and the two of them executed the warlords
in a summit meeting that was supposed to bring them all together. The mass executions were Daala's last resort, but she chose to do it.
She took command of the combined Imperial fleet, and set out to eliminate the Jedi Academy on Yavin 4. She also arranged for part of
her fleet to take out a number of important New Republic locations. Her plans nearly succeeded, but the combined might of the Jedi
Knights and the New Republic proved too much for her fleet. The seventeen ships under Pellaeon were physically flung from the
system; Cronus' ships were dispersed on secondary missions; and her own flagship, the Knight Hammer, was sabotaged by Callista
before she could claim ultimate victory. She evacuated the ship as it plunged into the core of Yavin, and was rescued by Pellaeon's
ships at the fringes of the system. Once aboard Pellaeon's ship, Daala resigned her rank as Admiral and turned the fleet over to
Pellaeon. She re-appeared on Cybloc XII, shortly after the Death Seed plague had wiped out the New Republic forces there. She found
R2-D2 and C-3PO among the decomposing bodies. She had been retired on Pedducis Chorios, but was offered an advisory position by
the piratical warlords that rules the planet. She hoped that the droids would reveal information on the battle in the Meridian Sector, but
was dismayed to learn that Moff Getelles was among the combatants. She detested his condescending ways, and agreed to help out
the New Republic by attacking Getelles. In the aftermath, she was reunited with Liegeus, and the two returned to her outpost on
Pedducis Chorios. (JS, DA, COTF, DS)
Daalang
this planet was the site of a trade conference during the Galactic Civil War. Han Solo was escorting Leia Organa to the conference
when they became entangled with the Five near Attahox. (CSWDW)
Daan
this people was one of the two major factions which inhabited the planet of Melida/Daan. Throughout the history of their planet, the
Melida had seen the Daan as feral beasts, and used a legacy of perceived wrong-doings to continue their civil war. The older members
of both societies fought to avenge losses sustained centuries before, using their children as laborers in munitions factories while they
killed each other in battle. They had been involved in a war with the Melida for thirty years before Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn
traveled to their planet to rescue Tahl. (DOD)
Daan Council
the governing body that controlled the actions of the Daan, some twelve years before the Battle of Naboo. (DOD)
Dace Diath
a dark-skinned, humanoid Jedi Knight who served in the Battle of Koros Minor, and was present at the Jedi Assembly at Deneba. A
native of Tatooine, Dace followed his father, Sidrona Diath, along the path to becoming a Jedi Knight. He learned the ways of the Force
under the tutelage of Master Vodo Siosk-Baas, and fought bravely on Onderon against the Naddist uprising there. He nearly died on
Ossus, though, during a training flight with Cay Qel-Droma. They were testing the Star Saber attack ship when Dace concentrated on
the ship's targetting computer but ignored his flight path. His ship was destroyed when it impacted a rocky spire, but Dace managed to
eject from the explosion, using the Force to levitate away from it. He later assisted the Jedi Knights during the Great Sith War, and was
among the group that pursued Aleema and Crado into the Cron System. When Aleema tore one of the stars apart, Dace was vaporized
in the resulting explosion. (FNU, DLS, TSW)
Dachat
the Nelroni Marauders established a base on this planet, which was located along the Hyabb-Twith Corridor. The Dachat base allowed
the Marauders to prey upon the governments of both Hyabb and Twith, while taking their pick of the ships which traveled between
them. Following the loss of their main base on Voon, the Nelroni were driven off Dachat by the ancient Jedi Knights. (TOJC)
Dack
this possible Jedi candidate was located in the Imperial computers by R2-D2 and C-3PO, but was disregarded because he cheated
rather than sensed the winners of blob races. He was a micro-electronics expert. Seeking to become wealthy and never have to work
again, he rigged the Duchess Mistal's search for a consort so that the computer selected him as the candidate. She could not bear to
be away from him, and so she wouldn't let him out of her sight. He fled to Umgul in an effort to escape their marriage, and tried to rig
enough blob races to afford passage farther from Dargul. He was apprehended by Lando Calrissian during a blob race, as Lando was
trying to determine if Tymmo were a candidate for the Jedi Academy. What Lando discovered was that Tymmo had been implanting
micro-motivators into the blobs in order to coerce them into winning. Since cheating at blob races incurred the death sentence on
Umgul, and since Tymmo wanted to live more than he wanted to die, he surrendered to Lando was returned to Mistal. (JS, JASB)
Dack Track
an Umgullian blobstacle course commissioned by Duchess Mistal of Dargul, and built by Slish Fondine. It was built to commemorate
Dack's return to the Duchess's side. (JS)

Dactyl
this yellow ammonia crystal is vital to the survival of Arconans who are away from their homeworld. Dactyl is used as a dietary
supplement to stave off the effects of low-ammonia atmospheres. Even short periods of time without a regular supply of ammonia will

Dadeferron, Dixon
Torm's father, he was turned into the Corporate Sector police force by Torm for infractions loosely based on the land-use disputes
between the Dadeferron family and the Authority. Torm's real motivation was to gain control of the Kail Ranges. (CSA)
Dadeferron, Torm
a native of the planet Kail, Torm and his family were independent landowners within the Corporate Sector. He was jealous of the power
his father held as the owner of the Kail Ranges, and wanted it for himself. When his family became involved in a series of land-use
disputes with the Corporate Sector Authority, Torm was approached by Authority agents and offered the chance to own the Ranges
outright if he would held convict his father of some wrong-doing. Torm agreed, and soon his father, Dixon, and his brother, Trevim, were
arrested and removed from Kail. Torm's involvement with the Authority didn't end there. He joined up with Rekkon, ostensibly in an
effort to locate his father and brother who had "suddenly disappeared" after the land-use battle. However, this story was just a cover for
his real work as an Authority operative whose mission it was to infiltrate Rekkon's group and eliminate it. Torm succeeded in killing
Rekkon aboard the Millennium Falcon, but not before Rekkon was able to discover the location of Stars' End. Torm was later
discovered by Han Solo as Rekkon's killer, and Han quickly deposited Torm into outer space, without a pressure suit. (HSE, CSA)
Dadeferron, Trevim
Torm's brother, sent to Stars' End with his father, Dixon, as part of the plot to place Torm in control of the Kail Ranges and remove the
dispute over the use of the Ranges. (CSA)
Dadefra, Alistar
this man was the Imperial Navy Captain who commanded the mission to wipe out the Eyttyrmin Batiiv pirates. He used the tractor
beams on his Victory-class Star Destroyers to hold the pirates' corvettes at bay while spacetroopers boarded them and killed the
occupants. He then started lang-range jamming, cutting the smaller pirate ships off from their commands. The Star Destroyers then
opened fire at will, followed by an intense concussion missile barrage launched at the surface of the planet Khuiumin. The Imperials
sustained 86 casualties while wiping out nearly 8,000 pirates. After the success of the mission, the 53-year-old Dadefra was promoted
to the command of the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Brazen, and dispatched to Elrood Sector to wipe out the rebellion and piracy which
sprang up after the Battle of Yavin. He spent a great deal of time disciplining Captains Pryl and Zed, working to defuse their rivalry in
order to center their efforts on destroying the Alliance. When the Brazen was ambushed by pirates, Dadefra managed to limp back to
Derilyn for repairs. Unfortunately, the Alliance was able to destroy the Brazen. It was unknown if Dadefra was aboard the ship when it
exploded. (SWSB, OE)

Daeshara'cor
this Twi'leki female was one of the first of her species to attend Luke Skywalker's Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4. As a child, she was
orphaned when her mother was enslaved, and she spent a lot of time in starports, talking to pilots and learning how to exist outside
society's mainstream. Daeshara'cor never forgot the loss of her mother. After joing the praxeum, she struggled mightily with her
training, though she believed that Luke's trainings were being lost on Kyp Durron. Daeshara'cor, however, still harbored anger over the
loss of her mother, which eventually led her down a path toward the Dark Side of the Force. Shortly after the Yuuzhan Vong first
invaded the galaxy, Daeshara'cor was given the mission to determine if any data files from the Maw Installation survived its destruction.
After learning how the Yuuzhan Vong enslaved other beings and turned them into mindless slaves, she chose not to board the ship and
began her own search for a superweapon to destroy the Vong. She planned to travel to Vortex, hoping to lead the Jedi away from her
path. However, Anakin Solo and Chalco located her on Garos IV. Daeshara'cor was forced to capture them and hold them ransom.
Anakin, with Chalco's help, managed to escape and capture Daeshara'cor, and they returned her to the Jedi gathered on Ithor. She
apologized for her actions, and was eventually forgiven by Master Skywalker. She later fought side by side with Anakin in the Battle of
Ithor, but in the end she was mortally poisoned by the bite of a Yuuzhan Vong amphistaff. Anakin could nothing to save her. As her life
expired, Daeshara'cor gave herself up to the Force, and her physical form disappeared. (DTR)

2) this Trade Federation starship participated in the Battle of Naboo. (OWS, SFT)
Dagger, The
developed by Mercevian Nagua - and often known as the Mercevian Nagua Manevuer - this pirate tactic involved the use of a saboteur
to disable a target ship's hyperdrive at a specific time, bringing the ship out of hyperspace near a pirate fleet. It was a risky maneuver
for the agent placed aboard the target ship, because being discovered often meant certain death. A variation of this maneuver had the
saboteur actually seize control of the bridge and bring the ship out of hyperspace themself, delivering it to the pirate fleet. (PP)
Dagger-D

Dagobah
primary planet in the Dagobah system, this swamp planet was home to Yoda. It is located in the Sluis sector. Near the end of the
Bpfassh Dark Jedi Insurrection, one of the fleeing Dark Jedi hid on Dagobah. No one knows what happened to the Dark Jedi, but it is
surmised that he died there. Furthermore, his knowledge of the Dark Side of the Force caused the planet to be bathed in Dark Side
energy. This might also explain why the Jedi Master Yoda was able to hide on Dagobah during Palpatine's purge of the Jedi, since his
Light Side strength would have been masked by the amount of Dark Side energy on the planet. The planet's day lasts 23 standard
hours, and its year is 341 local days long. (ESB, HTTE, HTSB)
Dagobah System

Dahz Thulaka
this notedly malevolent Twi'lek lived and worked deep in the bowels of Starlyte Station, where he performed a variety of dark
experiments. Talandro Starlyte was aware that Thulaka captured unsuspecting visitors to the Station and used them in his experiments,
but was somehow unable to stop it. Thulaka discovered, during his time studying to become a doctor, that he was sensitive to the
Force, and dedicated most of his time to researching the mystical energy field. However, Thulaka lacked the patience to correctly
develop an affinity with the Light Side of the Force. When the Dark Side called to him, Thulaka jumped in quickly and was shortly
dominated by it. He began using his medical skills and his knowledge of the Force to try and create his own army of deformed
creatures, capturing unwitting victims and performing strange and unusual experiments on them. These creatures often died quick,
horrible deaths, since Thulaka lacked the power to maintain them. After settling on Starlyte Station, Thulaka found an abundance of
“raw material” and set up a lab in the deepest section of the station. (WSV)

Dajus, Jessa
this woman was a member of the navigational crew of the FarStar. She was implicated as having ties to the underworld by Gorak
Khzam, when the Rodian defected from the crew on Uukaablis. During the FarStar's patrol of the Kathol Outback, she suffered strange
headaches that suddenly appeared and, often just as suddenly, disappeared. The closer the ship got to the Kathol Rift, the stronger the
headaches became. During this time, she also distanced herself from the crew, much to the consternation of Captain Adrimetrum. She
also kept secret a good deal of information on Moff Sarne himself, which she discovered during several computer searches. When the
crew of the FarStar located and recovered the Codex from an alien construct inside the Kathol Rift, Jessa experienced an intense
hallucination about a spider-like creature consuming an entire planet before taking her inside its embrace. She slipped into a coma and
could not be revived until the ship discovered the planet Demonsgate. Then, Jessa suddenly woke up and began ranting about knowing
the location of the "DarkStryder Planet" and Moff Sarne's hidden base. (DARK, KO, KR)

Dalgeer
this Sullustan was a security officer for SoroSuub, until he coul dno longer reconcile SoroSuub's connections with the Empire and some
of its policies. He joined the Alliance, and was happy to volunteer his services in the construction and management of a base within the
volcano of Mount Deldarca. His dedication and energy earned him the respect of the base's personnel, and in turn they named the
base 'Dalgeer's Rim.' (HAS)
Dalgeer's Rim
this was the name of an Alliance base located in the Mount Deldarca caverns. Since Deldarca was an active volcano, it provided a
measure of protection against detection. The base of the volcano was riddled with tunnels and caverns left behind by flowing lava,
which made the location ideal for the Alliance since much of the excavation work had been done naturally. Dalgeers' RIm served as a
staging area and secondary fighter base for the starfighters in the system. Power for the base was developed by tapping into the
incredibly hot lava flowing beneath the mountain, providing a virtually endless supply of geothermal energy. The base was named fr its
first commander, the Sullustan Dalgeer. (HAS)
Dalhney, Hric

Dallows, Rhys
this man was learning how to fly the Naboo N-1 starfighter, as part of the small group of Naboo pilots who made up Echo Flight. He was
something of a smart-aleck, and was friends with Dren Melne. However, his loyalties were to the Naboo, and when Dren tried to force
Echo Flight to turn over their N-1 starfighters to Captain Sorran and the Velumina, Rhys came to the aid of Essara Till. For his actions,
Rhys was promoted to a position within Bravo Squadron. He was thrown into battle when the Trade Federation blockaded Naboo,
forcing Queen Amidala to flee the planet. Upon her return, Rhys and the rest of the pilots flew their starfighters against the Federation's
Droid Control Ship during the Battle of Naboo. Note that this character is named Rhys Darrow in the final installment of The Starfighter
Trap, on the LucasArts website. (OWS, SFT)

worlders. The average danchaf resembled a two-meter-tall humanoid, with broad shoulders and clawed feet used for climbing. A large
horn-like scale protected each shoulder. The danchaf were considered vicious predators, hunting in packs of 10 or more. The Jenet
maintain legends which indicated that the danchaf were once the rulers of the planet Garban, marauding the planet in huge packs
before Jenet warriors were able to decimate the population and drive them back. (COG)

Dannik Jerriko
a 1010-year-old Anzati assassin, Jerriko was known in the underworld as the Eater of Luck. As an Anzati, Jerriko operated with almost
total anonymity; thus, he preferred to work for people who needed other bounty hunters, killers, and assassins taken out. He felt a
greater thrill from drinking the soup of someone who defied his right to kill than from someone who cowered in fear. While stopping over
on Tatooine, he visited Mos Eisley. There, he knew, he could get some of the best soup from some of the galaxy's most notorious
criminals. When Ben Kenobi and Luke Skywalker entered the cantina, Jerriko was at the bar, smoking a nic-i-tain hookah. After the
events surrounding the death of Greedo, Jerriko resolved to hunt down Han Solo and drink his soup. His chance came when Jabba the
Hutt recovered Solo's carbonite-frozen body. Jerriko was eager to enter the palace, and would have done so on his own if he hadn't
been approached by the Lady Valarian and Eugene Talmont, both of whom wanted him to spy on Jabba. Jerriko took both jobs, and
entered the palace. He tried desparately to drink Han Solo's soup, but was deprived of it when Solo was rescued by Luke Skywalker
and Leia Organa. Then, Jerriko went a little mad, and resigned himself to drinking Jabba's soup. After learning that Jabba had perished
at the Pit of Carkoon, Jerriko went even more mad, killing anyone he could find in the palace. He then fled, and took on a number of
bounty hunting jobs. (COJ, TME, TJP, EGC)
Danoor
this planet, located in the Nah'Malis System of the Kathol Outback, was colonized about 100 years before the Battle of Endor. The
colonists were scientists who wanted to dedicate their research to studying the Kathol Rift. When word reached other planets in Kathol
Sector of Danoor's natural beauty and resources, other groups established settlements there as well. Shortly before Emperor Palpatine
created the New Order, a stray asteroid from the Duhrib Belt smashed into Danoor, killing much of its native population and destroying
large areas of the settlements. Contact with Danoor was cut off for several years, as the Empire left the world to itself. Danoor is a
temperate world of varying topography. Its day lasts 25 standard hours, and its year lasts 201 local days. The planet was ruled by a
group of Ministers, each of which represented about half a million residents. It was the Minsters, searching for a way to pay for its
operations, who invited many corporations to establish branches on Danoor. However, many of the Ministers made concessions in
order to draw corporate leaders to Danoor, and so the corporations have an incredible amount of political sway. After Rolf Treidum and
the Lialic II attacked the FarStar near Danoor, he then launched a devastator torpedo at the planet. Following the destruction of a huge
area of the planet, the Ministers of Danoor told the New Republic to stay away and not bring any more war and destruction to their
world. (KO)

this planet is located in the Core Worlds. (SWJ8)
Dantooine
this planet has a long history with the Republics and the Alliance. In ancient times, it was the site of a Jedi training center under the
command of Jedi Master Vodo Siosk-Baas. One of its most prominent students was the Dark Jedi, Exar Kun. During the period of the
Emperor's New Order, it was the site of Rebel base, but it was abandoned before the Empire could determine the base's location. It has
two moons and a dry savannah environment. Tash Arranda and her brother, Zak, discovered the ancient Jedi ruins there, with the help
of the Dantari Maga. Maga refused to enter the ruins, for the garoo of the Dantari tell legends which said those who entered the ruins
never came out. Tash discovered that the Empire was using the ruins - and the legends surrounding them - to create a new batch of
clones, using a cloning laboratory which was established by the ancient Jedi Knights. In the year following the resurrection of Emperor
Palpatine, Dantooine was the planet to which the Eol Sha colonists were relocated, but it was devastated in a stellar attack from
Admiral Daala. The average day on Dantooine lasts 25 standard hours, and its year encompasses 378 local days. (SW, DA, DLS,

Jev Sunrider was the Jedi watchman of this system, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. (TOJC)
Daragon, Gav
a native of Kirrek, Gav and his sister Jori charted the ancient space lanes for traders and haulers some 5,000 years before the Battle of
Yavin. They had been orphaned at an early age when their parents were killed in the First Unification Wars fought by Empress Teta,
and brought up under the watchful eye of Aarrba the Hutt. Gav once tested high in Force-sensitivity, but never was able to obtain full
training. The lure of interstellar travel called to Gav and his sister, and they were able to obtain a ship with the help of Aarrba. However,
luck was not something the Daragons were endowed with. They were continually in debt to Aarrba, and thought that they had finally
broken even when they discovered a risky route known as the Goluud Corridor. They were black-balled by the Navigational Guild and
disowned by Aarrba, and tried flee Cinnagar through the Starswarm Cluster, damaging their ship and forcing them to land on Korriban.
They were then thrust into the middle of the power struggle between Naga Sadow and the Sith Lords when the Sith Lords thought they
were advanced scouts from the Old Republic’s Navy. Gav was swayed by Naga Sadow, who held the young man on Khar Shian in
order to “protect” him from the other Sith Lords. Sadow allowed him to explore the ancient Sith magics, encouraging Gav’s Force
potential to grow. Sadow allowed him to train in the use of a huge wall of automated systems, giving him just enough information to lead
Gav to believe that he was controlling Sadow’s fortress. In reality, Sadow was training the young human in the use of several weapons
systems linked to Sith magic. When Ludo Kressh attacked Khar Shian, Sadow told Gav to use the systems to cut off transmissions to
the renegade Sith Lord. What Gav actually did was activate a remote detonator on Kressh’s ship, causing the craft to explode in a
brilliant fireball. It was at this point that Gav realized he and his sister had been manipulated by Sadow. However, he was gaining power
with the Force that he never thought he’d have, and when Sadow offered him a position of power in his fleet, Gav agreed. He led part of
the assault on Cinnagar, but was confronted by Aarrba. When his Massassi bodyguards cut the poor Hutt down, Gav was shocked at
the brutality. When he discovered that his sister had witnessed what he had done, he fled in terror to Primus Goluud, hoping to confront
Naga Sadow. There he disabled Sadow’s meditation sphere, causing the Sith Lord to lose his concentration. The images Sadow had
been projecting into his forces dissipated, giving the combined Jedi-Republic forces new hope. Sadow was furious, and tricked Gav into
the failing sphere. Gav’s distraction allowed the Republic to launch an attack on Sadow’s forces, but Sadow used Sith magic to rip apart
Primus Goluud. Gav remained in the sphere, providing the Republic fleet with an escape vector to avoid the explosion. He was killed in
the disaster. (GAS, FOSE)
Daragon, Hok
this man was the father of Jori and Gav Daragon, and was a successful supply runner for the ancient rebels of the Koros System. Along
with his wife, Timar, they made regular supply runs to planets like Kirrek, providing much-needed supplies while turning a tidy profit in
their starship, the Shadow Runner. However, on one fateful mission to Kirrek, they were caught in the crossfire of a raging battle
between the rebels and the forces of the Old Republic, and were shot down. Before they could land, though, another volley struck their
ship and destroyed it, killing them in the explosion. (GAS)
Daragon, Jori
a native of Kirrek, Jori and her brother Gav charted the ancient space lanes for traders and haulers some 5,000 years before the Battle
of Yavin. They were orphaned when their parents were killed in the First Unification Wars, and brought up under the watchful eye of
Aarrba the Hutt. Like her brother, Jori had some Force sensitivity, but was the weaker of the two siblings. Also like Gav, she never
pursued any formal training. The lure of interstellar travel called to Jori and her brother, and they were able to obtain a ship with the
help of Aarrba. However, luck was not something the Daragons were endowed with. They were continually in debt to Aarrba, and
thought that they had finally broken even when they discovered a risky route known as the Goluud Corridor. They were black-balled by
the Navigational Guild and disowned by Aarrba, and tried flee Cinnagar through the Starswarm Cluster, damaging their ship and forcing
them to land on Korriban. They were then thrust into the middle of the power struggle between the ancient Sith Lords, who believed
they were the advanced scouts of an Old Republic war fleet. Naga Sadow managed to sway her allegiance, and held her on Khar
Delba in order to “protect” her from reprisal by the other Sith Lords. Sadow later returned the Starbreaker 12 to her, telling her that Gav
was dead and that she needed to return to the Republic before the other Sith Lords launched an attack on the Republic. Sadow then
used the information from the Starbreaker 12' navigational computer to gather information on the Old Republic. When she returned to
Cinnagar - which was the only destination she had stored in the ship’s computer - she was arrested and charged with every
conceivable crime in relation to her escape from Cinnagar. No one believed her claims that the Sith Empire was about to attack, and
she was shipped off to Ronika as punishment for her crimes. She managed to escape on an ore drone ship, but was shot down over
Empress Teta’s palace on Cinnagar. Once captured by Teta’s guards, Jori produced a Sith amulet she took from Korriban. This
persuaded Odan-Urr and Teta to believe her story of an impending Sith attack. She later was reunited with her brother Gav, but only
after he and his Massassi warriors had killed Aarba. She tried to talk to him and bring him back from the Dark Side of the Force, but
was unsuccessful. She followed him to Primus Goluud, but was unable to rescue him from the failing meditiation sphere he’d taken
from Naga Sadow. As Gav provided an escape route from the unstable star, Jori tearfully said goodbye to him as the exploding star
consumed him. Later, she stood by Empress Teta’s side as they attacked Naga Sadow’s forces near the Denarii Nova, in the final act
of the Great Hyperspace War. Upon defeating the Sith and returning to Cinnagar, Teta gave Jori the rights to own and operate Aarrba
the Hutt’s starship repair facility for her assistance in the war. (GAS, FOSE)

Darez Wuht
this Duros served the Duro Defense Force as a Admiral, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Admiral Wuht was known to
be sympathetic to the plight of injured military personnel, and was placed in command of the refugee camps on his homeworld of Duro.
However, he proved to be incapable of managing the civilian situation. The Ryn who were stranded on Duro took to calling him “Admiral
Dizzlewit,” because he continually ignored the refugees. During the defense of Duro, Admiral Wuht took command of his flagship, the
Poesy, and attempted to stop any ship which tried to flee the Yuuzhan Vong attack on orders from the Duros Defense Force. However,
he realized that the Duros had been deceived by the the combined forces of the Peace Brigade, CorDuro Shipping, and the Yuuzhna
Vong, when Mara Jade Skywalker and Jaina Solo revealed the actions of Drugard Brarun and Nom Anor. Wuht quickly reconsidered
his position, and joined the New Republic in its fight to save Duro. (BP)

the Markul contact Melvosh Bloor was supposed to meet inside Jabba the Hutt's palace on Tatooine. Salacious Crumb used Bloor's
lack of knowledge of Gli to lead Bloor into thinking that Crumb was his contact. Gli was working for the Lady Valarian at the time,
although Bloor never found him. Gli had previously helped Ra Yasht and Skarten research their academic paper on Porcellus the cook.
When Jabba discovered Gli's assistance to the two academics, he had Gli killed and served up as dinner. (TJP)
Darillian, Zurel
this Imperial Navy Captain was a native of Coruscant. The house that he and his wife lived in was destroyed when Ysanne Isard
extricated the Lusankya from its underground berth, and his wife died in the destruction. He was the Captain of the corvette Night Caller
until the ship was infiltrated by Wraith Squadron. When Voort saBinring tried to disrupt the crew quarters by blasting them with a laser
bolt, he was firing into what was actually the bridge because the of the ship's extensive modification from normal CR90 specifications.
The laser blast ripped through the bridge, killing Darillian and plastering his remains on the ceiling of the bridge. The rest of the crew
was so stunned, they could not mount a defense against the Gamorrean and surrendered. Garik "Face" Loran then assumed the
identity of Darillian while the Wraiths continued to answer Zsinj's orders. He embellished the story of Darillian's wife's death by claiming
that Darillian was actually in love with Isard. (WS)

Dark Wing
this was the name of the small pirate fleet established by Abin-Ral-Xufush during the New Order. It consisted of a bulk cruiser, three
CR90 corvettes, and 20 assorted starfighters. Their ultimate goals were never known, but they had several tactics which made them
stand out. They almost always freed the crews of the ships they attacked, unless the crew resisted capture. Then Abin-Ral-Xufush
ordered his pirates to execute them immediately. Slave cargoes were always stolen by the Dark Wing fleet, although they were never
seen again. Many believed the slaves were absorbed into the pirate fleet's crew. (PP)

Darklighter, Biggs
a boyhood friend of Luke Skywalker's on Tatooine, Biggs was born into a wealthy family of food merchants on Tatooine. His father gave
him everything he wanted, except love, and Biggs struggled to fit in with the other young adults at Anchorhead. He became good
friends with Luke Skywalker, however, when Luke saw through the rich-boy image to the real person inside Biggs. When Biggs' father's
position and wealth provided a chance for him to attend the Academy, Biggs was hardly in a position to decline. He said goodbye to his
friends and went off to the Academy, graduating with honors receiving a commission aboard the Rand Ecliptic. Biggs served under the
Evader squadron aboard the Ecliptic, along with Hobbie Klivian, under Captain Heliesk. Both of them had contact with the Alliance, and
helped Biggs became aware of the atrocities of the Empire. After a brief stop-over on Tatooine to say goodbye to Luke and his other
friends, Biggs, Hobbie, and some others mutinied at Bestine and jumped ship to join the Alliance, with the help of Captain Heliesk.
When the time came to do battle with the Empire at Yavin, Biggs was named one of the X-wing pilots in Red Squadron. On Yavin 4, he
was reunited with Luke just prior to the battle. In the Alliance's final run at the Death Star's polar trench, Biggs was killed while
protecting Luke's back from the onrushing Imperial TIE Fighters. Biggs is portrayed by Garrick Hagon in Star Wars., and by Kale
Browne for the Star Wars Radio Drama on National Public Radio. (SW, SWR, MTS, CCG)
Darklighter, Gavin
a native of Tatooine, he was a member of Rogue Squadron. He was a cousin of Biggs Darklighter. He was only sixteen when Wedge
Antilles suggested that he be allowed to join. He was responsible for creating the emblem of Rogue Squadron, which featured a
twelve-pointed, red star surrounding the blue symbol of the Alliance. Radiating from the points of the star were X-Wing fighters. When
the Squadron resigned its commission with the New Republic after the liberation of Coruscant, he painted his X-Wing to resemble a
krayt dragon. As the Rogues liberated Ciruscant, Gavin found himself drawn to the Bothan pilot, Asyr Sei'lar, and they became
romantically involved. Their relationship was nearly shattered when Gavin's X-Wing was damaged during the capture of the Xucphra
Alazhi. He limped to Halanit, only to have the Corrupter and the Thyferran Home Defense Corps track the colony down. Erisi Dlarit
made him believe it was his own flight that led the Imperials to Halanit, but it was really Ysanne Isard tracing the shipment of bacta to its
source. Gavin assisted the settlers as much as he could, but he was unable to stop the destruction of their outpost. After several more
battles and as their relationship deepened, Gavin and Asyr decided to get married and adopt children. Unbeknownst to Gavin, Asyr was
blocked in her attempt to locate a Bothan child by Borsk Fey'lya. She resolved to bring about change to the Bothan society, but was
unsure how to do it. When she collided with an enmy fighter over Corvis Minor Five, everyone believed she was dead, including Gavin.
He mourned her deeply, but resolved himself to continue her noble ways. He was unaware that she survived the crash, but that was
Asyr's wish. In the years that followed, Gavin grew more and more into a capable leader. Gavin eventually married Sera Faleur, and the
couple adopted two boys who had been orphaned by the campaign against Grand Admiral Thrawn. Later, the couple gave birth to a
daughter, a third son, and eventually a second daughter. Shortly after the birth of his second daughter, Gavin was chosen to succeed
Wedge Antilles and Tycho Celchu as Commander of Rogue Squadronsome twenty years after the Battle of Endor, and was in
command of the squadron when the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy began. (XWN, KT, BW, IR, DTO)
Darklighter, Huff
Biggs Barklighter's father, Huff owned dozens of moisture farms on Tatooine, and bought water from other farmers at cut-rate prices.
Some of the water he used in his own hydroponics facilities, while most was sold to other settlers at a high profit. He used his ability to
locate water to become one of the planet's largest food magnates. In turn, he used his wealth to make sure Biggs got everything he
deserved from life. Huff was not above bribing the local officials - both terrestrial and Imperial - to maintain his stature. He held his son
in highest regard, and truly believed that Biggs was the only hero of the Battle of Yavin. Huff went so far as to say that Wedge Antilles
was less than a hero for leaving the battle, despite the fact that Wedge was ordered out by Luke Skywalker. Huff tried to obtain
ownership of the Lars moisture farm on Tatooine by initiating an alien landowner tax. The tax was geared toward breaking the alien
Throgg's financial reserves, but Gavin's father intervened and bought the farm before Huff could enforce the tax. Huff’s dealings with
the Imperial prefect on Tatooine allowed him a greater latitude in his dealings, and he worked hard to keep his competition at bay.
However, Huff wasn’t perfect. He was tricked and swindled by Lirin Banolt, but managed to obtain an Imperial data disk containing
information on the Eidolon Base weapons cache. The plans were stolen from his residence, but were eventually recovered by Rogue
Squadron. The Essential Guide to Characters lists Huff's name as Hutt. (MTS, EGC, XWN, XWBT)
Darklighter, Jula
Gavin Darklighter's father and Huff Darklighter's brother, Jula was almost a twin to Huff in facial appearance. Jula, however, was a
hands-on farmer who lacked the corpulence of wealth, and he did not have a moustache. He was unusually composed and restrained
when in the company of Huff's lack of manners. (BW)
Darklighter, Laval
Huff Darklighter's third wife, she was Gavin Darklighter's aunt in two ways. She was actually his mother's sister, and married to his
uncle. After Biggs' death, Huff wanted to make sure that he had heirs. Biggs' mother died shortly after he was born, and Huff's second
wife didn't want any children. Laval, though, bore three children for Huff. (BW)
Darklighter, Rasca
this woman was Gavin Darklighter's sister. She opposed the military build-up created by the Bothans in the wake of the death of
Thrawn and the Caamasi Incident. Her distaste for war and the military rose primarily from the fact that her husband had been killed
during the battle against the Yevetha. She took her children and moved in with Gavin, originally just until they got their lives back
together, However, Gavin and his wife Sera Faleur allowed them to remain as long as they wished. (DTO)
Darklighter, Silya
Jula Darklighter's wife, Silya was the sister of Laval Darklighter. They had similar appearances, but Silya was much more doting to her
sons, especially Gavin. (BW)

Darklighter Spin
named for, and developed by, Biggs Darklighter, this X-Wing maneuver was proven effective at the Battle of Yavin. By putting the X-
Wing into a spin about the axis of the fuselage while firing all four lasers at once, Biggs found that a pilot could take out multiple targets
on a single strafing run. (CCG9)
Darkmere, Colin
a New Republic Intelligence officer, Brigadier Darkmere was placed in charge of discovering any and all information about the
Emperor's World Devastators. (DESB)
Darkmere, Evram
a native of Daupherm, this man was the son of a notorious female pirate, and was forced to raise himself and his younger brother,
Garreck, when their mother was killed in a battle between the Daupherm Planet States and the Botor Enclave. Evram was conscripted
into the Daupherm Merchant Space Fleet, and rose from being a cabin boy to an officer before being drafted by the Daupherm military.
After his five-year tour of duty was up, he assisted his former Captain, Shrulldike, in stealing a Daupherm cruiser and setting out on
their own. They named their new ship the Retribution and planned to become smugglers, but Shrulldike eventually turned to running
slaves for a living. Darkmere chafed at this course of action, and eventually defeated Shrulldike in combat to take control of the ship.
Evram decided to challenge Shrulldike after meeting Nelson Flin and Arsitta Kushoe. Kushoe convinced Evram to support the Alliance,
and he found himself unable to continue running slaves. He reformed his crew, and began more respectable cargoes. He also passed
on important information to Nelson Flin and the Alliance, using his underworld contacts to gather data on Imperial movements in the
sector. (CRO)
Darkmere, Garreck

Darksaber
the name given to the modified Death Star design created by Bevel Lemelisk for Durga tha Hutt, the Darksaber station was an
elongated version of the original. Durga used his pet taurills to help steal the plans from the original Death Star from the hidden
computer files that were maintained by the New Republic on Coruscant. The Darksaber station was stripped of a number of
unnecessary items, including TIE fighter hangers, crew quarters, AT-AT storage, and docking bays. Lemelisk rightly believed that
Durga had no need of these; he just needed a superweapon with which to control the galaxy. The rounded cylinder of the Darksaber
housed a longer, more powerful superlaser, which drew increased power from the station's existing generators simply because they
didn't have to support all of the other systems. The superlaser was aligned along the longer axis of the station (much the way Umak
Leth mounted the superlaser on the Eclipse-class Star Destroyer), and when activated the entire station and its beam resembled a
huge, spaceborne lightsaber. Thus, Lemelisk dubbed the station "Darksaber." The Darksaber was constructed with the materials
collected by the Orko SkyMine ships Durga had built. The living spaces of the station were designed to house hundreds of Hutts and
their retinues. The project was beset with mishaps, due to the frugality of Durga, the ineptness of Sulamar, and the distractibility of the
taurills who did the construction. Only Lemelisk's persistence kept it moving. However, when Durga finally took control of the ship, his
frugality got the best of him. The station never made it out of the Hoth asteroid belt, as its superlaser failed to punch a path through the
space rubble. The Darksaber was crushed between two huge planetoids and exploded. (DS)
Darkstick
this Kerestian weapon resembles a flat piece of metal about two centimeters thick, seven centimeters wide, and fifteen centimeters
long. One end is rounded, the other is squared off. This part of the weapon is the handle, and has a power stud located about midway
along its length. When depressed, the stud activates the weapon, extruding a pure black blade of light that bends slightly as it projects
outward. The activated weapon resembles a boomerang, and can be wielded in the hand or thrown. The deep black blade will cut
through most any material, making it difficult to catch when thrown. (GG12)
DarkStryder
this unusual form of technology was discovered in the Kathol Rift by Kentor Sarne, but he had no idea how it worked or what it did. He
spent Imperial resources - without reporting their true mission - trying to determine the operation of various pieces of DarkStryder
technology, but teams of scientists and technicians were still unable to fathom its use. (DARK, KR)
Darktroopers
1) elite stormtrooper squads assigned to Operation Shadow Hand, they had been specially trained to use the Dark Side of the Force
(DE2)
2) the creation of Imperial Admiral Rom Mohc, the Dark Troopers were specially-enhanced stormtroopers. There were three stages of
darktrooper development. Stage 1 involved the troopers wearing just the protective exoskeleton, equipped with knife-like armor and an
arm-mounted personal shield generator. Stage 2 darktroopers wore the same exoskeleton, but were armed with assault cannons and
rocket packs. Stage 3 darktroopers were never fully developed. Rom Mohc was the only known user of the Stage 3 design, which
incorporated enhanced shields. (DF)

and his companion, Zuckuss, brought the ninety survivors of the Bright Hope to the Alliance underground on the planet. Darlyn Boda is
a damp, swampy world covered with dark, muddy forests. During the New Order, the planet was controlled by the Empire but had a
strong Alliance cell working within the underground. (TBH)
Darm, Umolly
this Newcomer lived in Ruby Gulch, on the planet Nam Chorios, and was one of the freedom fighters aligned with Seti Ashgad against
the Oldtimers and Therans. She had a small affinity for the Force, and was quite successful in locating Spook crystals. This made her a
valuable part of Dzym’s plans. It was Umolly that helped Luke Skywalker verify that Callista had indeed arrived on Nam Chorios. (POT)

Darpen, Tomer
this man, a native of the planet Commenor, served the New Republic as a councilor and liaison to new worlds. Prior to being a
diplomat, Darpen served with the Tierfon Yellow Aces, but his skills as a pilot were minimal. He was always running sabacc games and
selling liquor, but never seemed to do anything truly illegal. He was given the nickname "Ejector" by his squadron-mates, including Wes
Janson, during a mission on a low-gravity moon. Darpen's Y-Wing was shot up and had lost most of its flight controls, but he managed
to land it on the ground. When the fighter came to a stop after rolling several times, the ejector seat on the Y-Wing finally activated,
sending Darpen into space. The moon's low gravity couldn't hold him, and he achieved escape velocity and had to be rescued by a
shuttle. He was given the honorary rank of Ace for surviving the crash. Starfighter Command gave him the opportunity to look
elsewhere for a role, and he was tapped by the Diplomatic Corps. Upon the discovery of the world of Adumar, Darpen was selected to
be the liaison between the Adumari government and the New Republic diplomat to Adumar, which turned out to be Wedge Antilles.
However, Darpen was operating on his own agenda, rather than that of the New Republic, when he started dealing with the Adumari.
Darpen wanted to ensure that the planet and its people joined the New Republic at any cost, rather than assessing the pros and cons of
their admission. When the Adumari opened up negotiations to both the Republic and the Empire, Darpen was forced even further from
New Republic policies in order to gain the trust of the Adumari. When Wedge refused to play by the Adumari rules and shoot down
every pilot who challenged him, Darpen became furious. When Wedge's tactics of using low-powered lasers in starfighter combat -
allowing the Adumari to learn from their mistakes, and starting to modify the Adumari mindset - Darpen became irate. Darpen began
working with the perator of Cartann, Pekaelic ke Teldan, to establish a world government, but pushed the perator down a path which
had Cartann as the center of the government. He urged the perator to take control of the planet, with out without the consent of the
other nations. Wedge opposed this new form of government, adn refused to abide by Darpen's rules. Darpen then told the perator of
Cartann that Wedge was acting on his own, and was no longer worthy of consideration. The perator ordered Wedge's execution, which
forced Wedge and the other pilots with him to flee to the Yedagon Confederacy in order to prepare for the war Darpen had instigated. In
the end, Hallis Saper revealed that she had evidence of Darpen's schemes, which forced the perator of Cartann to re-evaluate his
position. Unable to face the dishonor he had perpetrated at Darpen's insistent, the perator abdicated in favor of his son, who promised
to implement a fairer model of world government. Darpen was arrested by New Republic Intelligence agents and imprisoned for his
treachery. (SOA)
Darpheon
this was one of the many city-states found on the planet Yarrv. It wsa ruled by Baron Karin during the Galactic Civil War. (GMS)
Darr, Hanos
this miner was part of the group which traveled to the rubble left behind after the destruction of the planet Alderaan, several months
after the Battle of Yavin, in an effort to locate ores. Darr was also one of the few beings who "saw" the Royal Palace of Alderaan hidden
in the asteroids, and when he realized that it was just a story meant to lure Leia Organa back to Alderaan, Darr decided to warn the
Alliance. He and Zaz Haqmiroz managed to get aboard the herdship Bazaar and transmit a message. However, before he could deliver
the message, Darr was killed by the assassin droid XS3. Before he died, he passed on Hamiroz's name to a team of Alliance agents.
(GA)
Darr, Horzao
this man was the Captain of the Sky-Dreadnaught Maxion, serving in the Exocron Airfleet. His career started when he was twelve, after
stowing away on a sky transport. He was discovered, and was indentured to the ship's captain to pay for his passage. After graduation
from the Airfleet's academy, he commanded the relief ship Loristar during several key supply runs during the unification wars that rolled
through Exocron. His valor and command skills earned him the appointment to the Maxion, and many feel that he would be the best
candidate for the supreme commander of the Airfleet. However, Darr resisted any promotion that meant he would not be able to
command a ship. (KO)
Darrik
this youth was a native of the planet Brentaal, although he longed to break out of his life of luxury and see the galaxy. One of many
sons of a wealthy shipping family, his early childhood was spent herding his siblings and cousins to their classes at the Brentaal
Commerce Academy. When he finally couldn't stand it any longer, sometime after the Battle of Yavin, he stowed away aboard Platt
Okeefe's Last Chance and ended up on Cloud City. Platt believed he was a spy for either the Imperial Security Bureau or BoSS, but
eventually came to believe Darrik's story. She agreed to help a fellow native of Brentaal in exchange for his labors. In return, Darrik
became something of an apprentice. While on Cloud City, Darrik was able to shoot the Rodian bounty hunter Tolga before he could kill
Platt, earning her trust and admiration. The pair then defeated Beylyssa before traveling to Tatooine to meet up with Tru'eb Cholakk. It
was Darrik's quick thinking that helped them free Tru'eb from Major Birket, allowing them to complete their deal with Tharrand. Platt
agreed to keep Darrik on as an apprentice. (IDC)
Darrin Arkanian
this Sullustan Jedi Knight was an idealist and a dreamer. He cherished life above all else, and strove to be a model of peace and
contemplation. When Emperor Palpatine began hunting down the Jedi, Arkanian went into hiding, and took Corwin Shelvay as an
apprentice. They were branded as outlaws and fugitives, and they roamed the Outer Rim in searching of surviving Jedi Knights. When
Corwin was captured by High Inquisitor Tremayne, Arkanian infiltrated Coruscant to rescue his student. He was caught by Tremayne,
and they engaged in a lightsaber duel. Arkanian lost, and was fatally injured before Shelvay could rescue him. Arkanian died a few days
after they escaped from Coruscant. (GG9)
Darron, Vict
this former Imperial Navy officer threw in his lot with Delak Krennel, when Krennel fled Imperial service and took control of the Ciutric
Hegemony. Commander Darron was given command of the Direption in order to secure the borders of the Hegemony, but on the
condition that he raze the village on Liinade III which the ship's former commander, Captain Rensen, refused to destroy. Darron
believed that the loss of life was as vile as Rensen did, and arranged for the inhabitants to evacuate the village before the
bombardment occurred. Darron managed to survive Krennel's wrath by explaining to Krennel that the dishomed villagers would do
more to spread the word of Krennel's supremacy than dead villagers would. In a twist of fate, Krennel dispatched Darron and the
Direption to protect Liinade III from attack by the New Republic, when the clone of Ysanne Isard warned him of the attack. Krennel's
forces, under Darron's command, nearly defeated the New Republic's fleet until the Freedom arrived to save the Republic fleet. Darron
was forced to surrender or lose his ships. (IR)

Darth Bane
this ancient Sith Lord was the last of his kind to survive the catastrophic struggle that consumed his order, some 2,000 years before the
Battle of Yavin. Recognizing that the Sith order was doomed to fail if it became too large, Bane waited until all the other Sith were
destroyed by their brethren or the Jedi Knights, then established a set of rules that were dominated by the pretense that there could
only be two Sith active in the galaxy at any time: a Master and an apprentice. Eventually, Bane took his own apprentice, and set his
new order in motion. Future Sith Lords were taught the virtues of patience, planning, and secrecy. (TPM)
Darth Maul
this Sith Dark Lord was the apprentice of Darth Sidious, the mysterious force behind the Trade Federation’s blockade of Naboo. Sidious
explained to Maul that he found him as a baby on the planet Iridonia, and took him in when his parents disappeared. Note that issue
seven of Star Wars Kids magazine claims that the Zabrak are from Iridonia. This leads one to believe that Darth Maul was a member of
one of the races of Zabrak. Over the years, Sidious discovered that Maul's inner self was full of anger and fury, and trained the youth in
the ways of the Sith. Sidious used sensory deprivation and other unusual punishments to harden Maul's anger into a solid core that
grew strogner when it touched the Dark Side of the Force. Maul was a student of the Dark Side of the Force, and wielded a two-bladed
lightsaber much like Exar Kun did some 3,950 years earlier. Maul’s lightsaber was actually two lightsabers fused together. Each had its
own separate components, allowing him to use a single blade if the weapon became damaged. Darth Maul was obvious by his heavily
tattooed, horn-studded face, piercing yellow eyes, and rotting teeth. Sidious dispatched Maul when he learned from the Neimoidians
that two Jedi Knights had been dispatched to negotiate a settlement to the blockade. When the Jedi – Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan
Kenobi – fled with Queen Amidala to Tatooine, Darth Maul followed at a safe distance. He nearly defeated Qui-Gon, but was unable to
control him before they fled for Coruscant. Not to be outdone, Sidious then sent Maul to capture them on Naboo. There, while Queen
Amidala’s forces attempted to capture Nute Gunray, Darth Maul confronted both Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon in the Theed palace’s power
generation station. In a fierce battle, the three swordsman battled to a draw before they were separated by the station’s laser defense
systems. When the defenses dropped, Maul and Qui-Gon were left alone to battle, and the Sith Lord defeated the Jedi with a quick jab
of his blade. However, his victory was short-lived. When Obi-Wan was able to escape the laser system, he attacked with a renewed
sense of purpose. His exuberence nearly cost him his life, when Darth Maul forced the young Jedi over the edge of a power shaft. Obi-
Wan recovered and, using the Force to recover Qui-Gon’s lightsaber, caught Maul off-guard. The Jedi sliced his lightsaber through
Maul’s midsection. The fatally injured Sith Lord toppled into the shaft and was lost forever. Darth Maul was acted by Ray Park and
voiced by Peter Serafinowicz in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. (SW1, IG1, JDM, SWK)
Darth Sidious
this Dark Lord of the Sith was the driving force behind the Trade Federation, during the time it tried to subjugate the world of Naboo. He
had control of specific elements of the Galactic Senate, and put in motion an intricate set of schemes to take control of the galaxy. He
had trained his apprentice, Darth Maul, and was ready to bring his plans to fruition when Chancellor Valorum dispatched two Jedi
Knights to Naboo to negotiate a settlement. Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi thwarted his initial plans, and forced him to send Darth
Maul after the pair. Meanwhile, Sidious continued to manipulate the Neimoidians, pushing the situation at Naboo as far as he could.
When Queen Amidala returned to Naboo to deal with the situation herself, Sidious saw his carefully laid plans fall apart as the
Neimoidians were defeated and the planet freed of its blockade, and Darth Maul was killed in battle by Obi-Wan Kenobi. (SW1)

they had beady eyes. The Dashade were native to the planet Urkupp, and were believed to have died out some 4,000 years before the
Battle of Yavin when the Cron System was destroyed in the Great Sith War. An ancient Falleen, who had 38 Dashade enforcers in his
employment, cryogenically froze them for later use. One of the Dashade was revived each century or so, and put to use. The last
known Dashade from this group was the shadow killer Ket Maliss. (SSR)

Dassid Cree'ar
this Duro was a noted plant geneticist, and was part of the team assembled by the New Republic to assist in the restoration of the
natrual environment of the planet Duro, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. His team worked with other groups, notably
Doctor Williwalt’s, to create bacterial sludges which ingested the foul water and soil of Duro and converted it to clean organic matter.
His teams had also created six miniature ecosystes on the planet’s surface, forming the first arable land on Duro since the planet was
abandoned. Doctor Cree’ar himself, however, never attended Leia Organa-Solo’s staff meetings, instead submitting his reports
beforehand for her perusal. His fellow scientists grew weary of his continual absenteeism, despite the fact that his work was
progressing ahead of schedule. It was later revealed that Doctor Cree’ar was, in fact, the Yuuzhan Vong agent Nom Anor, who had
been wearing the gablith masquer in order to imitate a Duros. Nom Anor used bio-engineered organisms of his own shaping to provide
him with results, as well as creating a series of tunnels and cave beneath the planet’s surface for his own private laboratory. (BP)

Daultay Dofine
this Neimoidian was one of Nute Gunray’s Captains, and embodied everything that was negative about his race. He was lazy, only
moderately competent, and greedy, and achieved his status primarily because of his high birth. When the Trade Federation blockaded
the planet Naboo at the order of Darth Sidious, Dofine was the only member of Gunray’s collective to question the orders of the Sith
Lord, and for that he was removed from the ruling class of the Federation and assigned to the Droid Control Ship over Naboo. During
the Battle of Naboo, Dofine was killed when Anakin Skywalker managed to damage the control ship’s reactor core, triggering internal
explosions that tore the ship to pieces. Daultay Dofine as acted by Alan Ruscoe and voiced by Chris Sanders in Star Wars: Episode I –

David, Trey
this man was Horzao Darr's second-in-command in the Exocron Combined Air-space Fleet. It was David who intercepted Talon Karrde
when he arrived in the system to locate Jorj Car'das. When he and Car'das learned of Karrde's approach, they knew that they could use
it as a way to draw the slaver - and their enemy - Rei'kas toward the Kathol Rift. They allowed Karrde to locate Exocron, thereby
allowing Rei'kas to find the planet. When Rei'kas attacked, David made sure that none of his ships fired on them. He retreated toward
Exocron, much to the disbelief of Karrde and his crew. When the Aing-Tii finally made their presence known, it was a quick firefight. In
the end, the fleet Rei'kas has sent in was decimated, and Exocron was once again safely hidden. (VOF)

Daykim, Onibald
one of the feral humans living underneath Imperial City in the early years of the New Republic, he is the "king" of his group. He was a
low-level servant of the Imperial Palace branch of the Corusca Bank, during the reign of Emperor Palpatine. A small accounting error
committed by his staff resulted in the name of Emperor Palpatine going to the top of a public list of loan defaulters. Although the
incorrect list existed in the public domain for a few hours, Palpatine nonetheless found out about it,and fired the entire board of directors
before demanding the identity of the culprit. Daykim fled to the undercity, rather than face Palpatine's wrath, and has existed there ever
since. He maintains a strong and hale body, but he has lost all of his teeth and his hair has begun to fall out from years of living
underground. (DA, JASB)

DeadHutt Switch
this is a fail-safe device used by many Hutt crimelords. It is a remote control device which has a single button. The button is held down
by the Hutt, as long as it is alive. If the Hutt were to become incapacitated or die, it would release the button, triggering any number of
remotely-located explosives, all of which are set off by a signal from the deadHutt switch. (IJ)

Death or Glory
a song written and played by the band Strarburst. It was first released as part of the compilation Only in Your Dreams, and has been
given a scarlet rating by the Imperial Board of Culture. (GG9)
Death Seed
this plague was virtually unstoppable when it was first discovered. The basis of the Death Seed is the creature called a droch, which
can steal the life force energy from its victim once it bites the victim. If allowed to remain attached, the droch can quickly burrow into its
victim. Once inside, it is absorbed into its victim, but continues to drain life energy from it. The victim dies from unknown, though
obviously viral, causes. Bacta therapy was found to quicken the disease, because the bacta only provided the droch with a renewed
source of life energy as the victim healed. The Death Seed was controlled by the huge droch Dzym, which maintained a link to the
lower drochs while obtaining life energy from their vicitms. When Dzym and Seti Ashgad began their quest for galactic domination, they
unleashed the Death Seed plague on the Meridian Sector. Only through Luke Skywalker’s communication with the Spook crystals on
Nam Chorios was the plague defeated. The crystals agreed to be shipped off-planet, where they could help focus natural sunlight on
the parasitic creatures. The Death Seed managed to wipe outnearly three-quarters of the sector before it was controlled. (POT)
Death Squadron
this grouping of capital ships was formed under the command of Admiral Ozzel, and was created to capture Alliance starships fleeing
the Battle of Hoth. (CCG3)
Death Star
satellite-sized battle station designed by Tol Sivron at the Maw installation, and was built by Bevel Lemelisk and Imperial Engineering.
Grand Moff Tarkin had asked for a superweapon with which he could control the entire Outer Rim Territory, and the Death Star was the
result. It housed a huge superlaser which combined the output of multiple lasers into a single, focused beam. A huge focusing lens was
built to accomplish this; it located on the upper hemisphere. The superlaser was designed to be targeted at anything from a capital ship
to a planet. This objective was known only to a select few, for Tarkin and the Maw's top scientists decided that they should downplay
the role of superweapon to keep the project on schedule. They told the project engineers that the station would be used to break down
dead planets in an effort to reach the core of elements easier. The funding for the original Death Star came from funds diverted form the
Departments of System Exploration and Public Works. The interior of the initial Death Star was planned to have 84 unique levels, each
1,428 meters in height. Each level was subdivided into 357 sublevels. The entire design was then divided into two hemispheres, each
with twelve zones. The crew of the first Death Star design was 27,048 officers; 774,576 troops, pilots, and crewers; 378,576 support
and maintenance crewers; 400,000 support droids; and 25,000 stormtroopers. The human inhabitants were provided with an array of
parks, shopping centers, and entertainment facilities, since the average length of service aboard the station was to be six years without
leave. At the north pole of the station was constructed a 100-story tower, which was heavily shielded and virtually impenetrable. This
tower held Palpatine's operational headquarters, for those times when he was aboard the station. According to Imperial sources, this
first Death Star took too long to construct, exceeding Palpatine's every deadline. It was built in orbit around the prison world Despayre.
Labor for the construction was taken at will from the prison below. When the first Death Star was complete, Tarkin ordered the
superlaser tested on the planet Despayre itself. Needless to say, this initial test exceeded even Tarkin's wildest dreams. However,
despite its formidable weaponry, the original design was flawed, as is vented its main reactor directly to the outside. This allowed the
Alliance to fire proton torpedoes into the exhaust shaft and destroy the station. The original station was 120 kilometers in diameter.
The second model was modified to eliminate these flaws, and was slightly larger than the original at 160 kilometers in diameter.
However, during its construction in orbit around Endor's forest moon, the Alliance succeeded in knocking out its primary shield and
destroyed the main reactor, exploding the unfinished station. The outer hull was made from quadanium steel for protection. For
defensive measures, the Death Star was to house 4 capital ships, 7,200 TIE fighters, 3,600 Lambda-class assault shuttles, 2,480 blast
boats, 1,860 drop ships, and 13,000 support craft. These included 1,400 AT-ATs, 1,400 AT-STs, 178 Mobile Command Bases, 1,420
repulsortanks, 1,420 repulsorcraft, 355 Floating Fortresses, and 4,843 Juggernauts.
Death Star II

Death Watch
a group of elite warriors from the Mandalore Systems. (EGC)
Death-Hunter
this cyborg assasin was the brain-child of the Imperial Moff Jesco Comark. Comark used his position as the head of Renik to syphon
funds into the Death-Hunter project, and used Renik agents to kidnap strong, healthy humans between the ages of 15 and 25 for
cyborging. Comark realized that the Empire couldn’t continue to use bounty hunters to do its dirty work, and developed an army of
cyborged killers. He was able to obtain strong human subjects from the working population of Bescane, kidnapping individuals
whenever the need arose. Comark also used the shipyards at Jaemus for his project, having them modify Sector Plexus courier droids
for use as Death-Hunter transports. The Death-Hunter was an incredible combination of technological and physical abilities. The Death-
Hunter’s eyesight was augmented with low-light and macrozoom enhancements. Hearing was increased with specialized receptors.
Lifeform sensors were implanted to improved tracking ability. Several communications options were available to the cyborg, including a
wideband receiver and a tightband antenna. The Death-Hunter project was exposed by Moff Comark’s own daughter, Amber Comark,
who was operating under the guise of Alliance special agent Tigress. Much of the Death-Hunter project was destroyed when Alliance
agents, working with Amber Comark, were able to eliminate Jesco Comark’s base on Zeta Zero Nine, in the Wastes. (SWJ9)
Death's Head
an Imperial-I class Star Destroyer under the command of Captain Harbid, the Death’s Head was part of Grand Admiral Thrawn’s fleet. It
was dispatched to the Palanhi System to apprehend Han Solo, but was unable to capture them there. Later, the Death’s Head
participated in the attack on Ord Pardron. (HTTE, DFR, TLC)

Debble, Garv
this New Republic archaeologist insisted that relics plundered by the Empire from other worlds should be returned to their proper
owners. Debble and his team were appointed to investigate and document all the artifacts and information discovered in the Empire's
Mount Tantiss facility, following the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn. He was nearly thwarted in this effort by Ekhrikhor, who wanted all
of the Emperor's belongings destroyed. Leia Organa Solo eventually intervened and allowed Debble to complete his work. (TTSB,
SOP)
Debble Agreement
this compromise was worked out by Leia Organa-Solo and Garv Debble with the Noghri which were cleaning up Honoghr. The Noghri
had wanted to eradicate every speck of Imperial presence on the planet Wayland, before they relocated there after the clean-up
activities proved futile. The agreement was a spur-of-the-moment, private deal that allowed certain artifacts to be recovered. One
unusual outcome of the agreement occurred after it was discovered that Emperor Palpatine maintained a variety of alien artifacts in the
cloning facility on Wayland. The New Republic tried to keep the facility a secret, but alien races demanded that they be allowed to come
to Wayland and recover their lost artifacts. In order to support the influx of aliens, the city of New Nystao was greatly expanded beyond
housing the agents of the New Republic. (SOP, HT)

part of Freedom Strike Seltos, was able to thwart their efforts. (TSK)
Debrelle
this attractive near-human female worked as a clerk in the Mos Eisley branch of Zygian Savings and Loan. (GG7)
Deca Brun
this Galacian male was one of the primary candidates for succeeding Queen Veda, just before she abdicated the throne. His supporters
often clashed with those of Wila Prammi, although neither camp seemed to oppose Prince Beju. Deca Brun was considered the popular
favorite, having been a hero of many battles. He lacked political experience, though, and many questioned whether he could bring
about the reforms he promised to make. He ran under the slogan that all Galacians were one people, and he was just another on eof
them. Obi-Wan Kenobi later discovered that Brun's campaign was being financed by Offworld Mining Corporation, which was led by
Xanatos. The funding was being relayed to Brun by Lonnag Giba, through a false front known as the Galacian Mining Corporation. Brun
had claimed that his funding was coming from small Galacian interests, in order to enhance the "We Are One" motto. (MOC)

and making it habitable again. (DFR)
Decor
this was starfighter pilot slang for the designations of rank each officer wore, and the respect and honor they deserved from other pilots.
It was used disparagingly, because it meant flight officers had to keep their opinions to themselves. Many Captains and Commanders
preferred to go "no decor" when not on a mission or in the presence of VIPs, since it maintained morale among the squadron-mates.

their eyes appear to glow red in normal light. (DFR, DFRSB, CCG)
Defender
1) Drearian Defense Conglomerate's sporting blaster. Princess Leia used one on the Tantive IV. (RPG)
2) Merr-Sonn’s high-altitude ion mine. The Defender was used extensively by the Empire to blockade rebellious worlds. The mines
were deployed in orbit, and were equipped with cloaking revvers and scatter beams to render themselves nearly undetectable. Any ship
travelling within 10 kilometers of the mine triggered the device, which fired ion energy at the ship similar to an ion cannon. The disabled
ship was forced to float in space until boarded by Imperial forces. (CFG)
3) this in-system starfighter was developed by the New Republic in the wake of the Battle of Endor, although it saw its greatest
popularity after the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn. The primary mission of the Defender was to defend planets against Imperial raids.
Although it lacked the speed of a A-Wing, the Defender was well-armed and highly maneuverable. It two wings were mounted on S-
foils, and could stowed alongside the fuselage during routine patrols or extended outward and downward when in attack posture. It was
armed with three laser cannons, one one the nose and one on each side of the fuselage. In order to save space and weight, the
Defender was not equipped with a hyperdrive. (SOP, SWG)

Deign Lian
this Yuuzhan Vong warrior was from a prestigious family of warriors, and served as Shedao Shai's second-in-command during the
subjugation of Dubrillion and Destrillion. However, Deign Lian himself had shown none of his family's ruthlessness in battle when he
was assigned to the Legacy of Torment. Deign constantly questioned Shedao's commands, unable to fully understand the military and
psychological aspects of the invasion plans. This did not stop him from plotting with the Yuuzhan Vong Warmaster in their home galaxy,
reporting on Shedao Shai's every move and highlighting his every mistake. Meanwhile, he obeyed Shedao Shai, although occasional
lapses brought anger and physical retaliation from Shai. After Shedao Shai died in a duel with Corran Horn on Ithor, Deign Lian
assumed command of the Yuuzhan Vong forces and unleashed a bioweapon on Ithor, reducing virtually all forms of life to bacteria-
ridden husks. He then made to return to Dubrillion, where he awaited orders from Tsavong Lah. However, Traest Kre'fey ordered the
Corusca Rainbow to activate her gravity well projectors, keeping the Yuuzhan Vong ships near Ithor and reducing their ability to defend
themselves with dovin basals. In the end, the ships of the New Republic decimated the Yuuzhan Vong fleet. Deign Lian was killed when
the Legacy of Torment exploded under heavy fire. (DTR)
Deila
this young woman was a member of The Young, and a contemporary of Nield and Cerasi. After the elders of the Daan and Melida were
defeated, Deila was named to the new government's Young Security Squad, serving as Obi-Wan Kenobi's second-in-command. After
Nield exiled Obi-Wan, Deila tried to remain loyal to Nield. When he ordered her to allow Mawat to retrieve the weapons Obi-Wan had
stored, she allowed him to do it because Nield was the governor. However, she learned from Joli that Mawat wanted to take control of
Zehava for himself. Joli and Deila hid after Mawat ordered them to take up arms, hoping to flee the inevitable war that was brewing.
They then provided information to Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, telling the Jedi of Mawat's deception.(DOD, UP)

new group assisted the Alliance several times during the Galactic Civil War, but after the Battle of Endor, Kolor turned his attention to
the New Republic. It was unknown if he held a grudge against the fledgeling government, or if someone hired Pendarran's Revenge to
act against them. (WBC)
Delantine
this planet sided with the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War, and was supportive prior to the Battle of Yavin. The planet was rich in
ores and minerals that were used to create parts of many weapons, which made it a strategic asset. After the battle, the Alliance chose

this man was the Imperial Governor of Tallaso during the Galactic Civil War, and was known as the consummate conman. He enjoyed
a good life onTallaso, but was always a big fish in a little pond. Following the Battle of Endor, the Empire forgot about Tallaso, and
Delahrg was overthrown in a coup de etat. He fled to Vandron, where he bluffed his way into a position on the planetary government.
That government crumbled, and Delahrg was once again without a job. However, he found steady work as a politician-for-hire, selling
his verbal skills and knowledge of Imperial politics to the highest bidder. (HR)
Delari Prime
this primary planet in the Delari System, located in the Corva Sector, was a bountiful world until it was hit by an asteroid several millenia

into a computer system that could adjust each one's angle for maximum maneuverability. The ship's twenty-one engines were arranged
in groups of three, and each group was connected to a servo-mechanism that allowed them to be independently positioned for direction
and maximum thrust. The Delaya-class could attain speeds of 950 kilometers an hour in atmosphere. The stock ship was lightly armed,
and had minimal hull plating. These could be added for combat use, although the Delaya-class was designed to transport personnel
from planet to planet. The Delaya-class courier measured 70 meters in length, and required a pilot and co-pilot to operate. The ship had
room for up to 8 passengers and 10 metric tons of cargo, and was often armed with a front-mounted proton torpedo launcher and a pair
of turret-mounted laser cannons. (EGV, TOJC)

Delckis, Rannd
Alliance Communications Officer on the Flurry at Bakura, Delckis was a native of the Virgillian System and a veteran of the Virgillian
Civil War. Delckis was born into the aristocracy, and even attended the Imperial Academy. After graduation, Delckis served on the
Stormwind as a junior communications assistant. Fatefully, the Stormwind was ordered to the Virgillian System to put down rebellious
activity on the primary planet’s forested moon. Delckis was forced to accompany his commanding offcier, Captain Jarroth, to the
moon’s surface, where he witnessed the brutal interrogation of suspected freedom fighters. Rather than return to the oppression of the
Empire, Delckis defected and stayed behind when the Stormwind took off. However, Delckis was not welcomed into the ranks of the
freedom fighters with open arms, given his family history and his initial support of the Empire. Tessa Manchisco, however, recognized
his skills and his loyalties, and requested his presence onboard the Flurry. Rannd proved to be an invaluable resource, providing the
Virgillians with expertise in the use of Imperial sensors and the HoloNet. Unfortunately, Delckis was killed when the Flurry was
destroyed during the Battle of Bakura. (TB, TBSB)

Dellalt
a planet located within the Tion Hegemony, Dellalt was at one time part of a strategic cluster of pre-Old Republic Expansionist growth. It
was during this period that the planet came under the watchful eye of Xim the Despot, who hoped to use it as his base of operations
when he began his galactic conquest. He built huge vaults on the planet's southern continent, and the starship Queen of Ranroon was
en-route to deliver a huge shipment of war materiel when Xim fell at the Third Battle of Vontor. The Queen was hidden in the mountains
near the vaults, until it was discovered by Han Solo and Badure. Since then, a large mining operation has flourished on Dellalt, but it
started to stagnate under the ownership of J'uoch and R'all. As with much of the Tion Hegemony during the rule of Emperor Palpatine,
Dellalt was virtually forgotten. Dellalt has two natural satellites, and is home to the Swimming People, a race of aquatic sauropteroids.

this tall Rabaanite warrior was forever known as the second-best of his caste. He wore the warrior’s red bandoleer, and had been
awarded the sunburst sigil of a combat artst. However, Andos was continually bested by Mika Streev, and this rankled Andos deeply.
He desired to be the best, to have the power and prestige that came with being his planet’s chosen champion. To this end, he agreed to
help the Empire subjugate the Ishanna System. Andos hoped that this would allow him to kill Streev and become Rabaan’s champion.
He brought the Imperials to the Combat Moon just as Streev and the S’krrr Sh’shak were about to do battle. Andos brought with him a
contingent of stormtroopers led by a man named Jan, and tried to lure Streev away. Streev was too quick, and he killed Jan before
advancing on Andos. Andos realized that Streev was going to kill him as well, and fled the battle. (SWJ9)

Denarii Nova
an area of the galaxy characterized by the exploding stars that spread arcs of stellar fire throughout its environs. It was created when
the ancient Sith Lord Naga Sadow tried to elude the pursuit of the Old Republic, some 5,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. Using the
Sith stones set into his unique starship, Sadow harnessed the Dark Side of the Force and tore the two Denaari stars apart as the Old
Republic's fleet moved in. The fleet was destroyed, and Sadow was able to escape. Aleema tried to use the same technique a
thousand years later, during the Great Sith War, and created the Cron Drift. She, however, failed to escape the destruction and was

Dengar
a human bounty hunter commissioned by Darth Vader to locate the Millennium Falcon. He failed to locate Han Solo, but he built a loose
partnership with Boba Fett. He grew up as a swoop racer on his native planet of Corellia, and was a member of the Ferini team before
he was defeated by Han Solo in a private race. Dengar was severely injured in the race when he lost sight of Solo and flew underneath
him. When Dengar tried to pull up, he slammed into Solo's swoop, causing severe facial and cranial traumas. He recovered, thanks to
the prodigious efforts of the local health corps and the technical resources of the Empire. He was fitted for several cybernetic implants,
including new eyes and a series of neural pathways to augment his damaged systems, and given a new set of memories and
“programming.” The Empire cut out his hypothalmus gland and inserted a central computer module to control the new systems. The
Empire expected him to be a faithful assassin, and despite the erasure of his mind and emotions, Dengar continued to develope a great
hatred for Solo. He spent a number of years recovering from the injuries suffered in the swoop crash. However, he memories began to
intrude on his consciousness, and Dengar left Imperial service after being told to kill the holy children on Asrat. He decided to try his
own hand at bounty hunting, and spent a number of years in remote sectors of space known only as ‘Payback’ while memories of Han
Solo began to resurface. The Empire put out a warrant for his arrest. It was during this time that he first met Manaroo, after killing
Kritkeen on Aruza. The old rage he felt against Solo caused Dengar to take bounties which bore resemblances to Solo, and Kritkeen
was one of them. Dengar later answered the summons of the Empire when the bounty went out on Solo’s head, as Darth Vader gave
him one chance to remain free if he captured Solo. Dengar failed to capture him, always one step behind Boba Fett. When Manaroo
shared herself with him via her Attanni, Dengar suddenly got an insight on what it was like to be human again. He helped rescue her
parents before landing in Mos Eisley. When Manaroo was captured by Jabba the Hutt’s henchmen, Dengar plotted to kill the crimelord.
He insinuated himself into Jabba’s palace, outwardly helping to protect the Hutt from Alliance reprisal at the capture of Solo. When Fett
approached him to celebrate Solo's capture and imminent death in the Pit of Carkoon, Dengar agreed and consumed some drugged
Twi’leki liquor. He passed out, missing the trip to the Pit of Carkoon that should have ended with the deaths of Solo and Luke
Skywalker. Instead, Jabba had him tied to the desert floor near the Teeth of Tatooine. Dengar managed to escape, driven by his fear
that Manaroo was dead. She wasn’t, and she later found him as she seached the desert in a speeder she had stolen. They traveled to
Mos Eisley, and Dengar slowly recovered from his wounds. He also agreed to marry Manaroo. In an effort to find enough money to pay
their mounting bills, Dengar went out to the desert to find the remains of Jabba's sailbarge. He tried to locate Jabba's ident chip in the
wreckage, but instead found the nearly-dead Boba Fett crawling from the sand. In return for saving his life, Fett agreed to be Dengar’s
best man. After he married Manaroo and nursed Fett back to health, Dengar and Fett set out to hunt down Han Solo again. When they
found him on Nar Shaddaa, they thought they had it made. Solo's escape further confounded Dengar and Fett, who were stranded on
the spaceport moon. (ESB, DE1, MTS, DESB, EGC, TBH)

cooperate, and to do so he planted the seeds of a Candorian plague there. Madine followed his orders, but he never felt good about
doing it. During a series of military maneuvers on the planet, Madine simply disappeared from the Imperial armed forces. The Empire

other crimelords in the development of Black Nebula. In the Basic tongue, the word ‘Dequc’ means “whitehead.” Dequc had many of his
lieutenants impersonate him, hoping to drive off assassins. After using Captain Strok’s troops as a diversion, Mara quickly infiltrated
Dequc’s offices in Wrils and beheaded one of his stand-ins. However, she found out that she had not executed Dequc, and was forced
to rework her plans. It was during this time that Emperor Palpatine was killed over Endor, and Mara was imprisoned by Ysanne Isard.
She infiltrated Dequc’s palace on Qiaxx, and used a bust of Prince Xizor to care out her plans. Mara Jade hid an remote control device
inside it, along with her ligthsaber, in hopes of entering Dequc’s private chambers in order to execute the crimelord. She claimed that
Xizor had hidden a treasure map inside it, and when Dequc opened it, she activated the remote control. The device ignited the

and Teltoris - were cautious not to upset the Empire, but longed for their freedom. The Derilyn day lasts 27 standard hours, and the
year lasts 350 local days. It has a varied ecology. (PG)
Derilyn Space Central
this agency provided traffic control and protection for the starships which traveled to Derilyn. When the Empire subjugated the planet
and interdicted the space from Derilyn to Berea, Derilyn Space Central was overtaken and restaffed with Imperial officers. (OE)
Derilysa
this is the capital city of the planet Derilyn. (PG)
Derkolo
this predator was native to the inhospitable world of Sileron. They hunted in packs, using their sharp claws and their inherent
fearlessness to bring down all forms of prey. (PG1)
Derlac
this airborne creature is raised by the Kian'thar on Shaum Hii. Derlacs graze on the plants and animals that live near the surface of the
oceans, and are prized for their flesh. Derlacs can grow to be fifteen meters in length. They are noisy beasts, and the cacophony of the
derlac "cattle markets" is well-known throughout the galaxy. (GG12)
Derlag's Cantina
this small cantina was located in Mos Espa, some 32 years before the Battle of Yavin. (E1A5)
Derlin, Bren
a native of Tiisheran and a major in the Alliance at the time of the Battle of Hoth, Derlin was in command of the security of Echo Base.
Bren was the son of Galen Derlin, and because convinced that the Empire was evil after the murder of his father. He immediately joined
the Alliance, in order to bring justice back to the galaxy. It was Derlin who ordered the base secured, even though Luke Skywalker and
Han Solo were still missing out in the snow-covered wastes. Derlin served as Han Solo’s second-in-command during the assault on the
second Death Star’s shield generator on the Forest Moon of Endor. He remained with the armed forces after the Battle of Endor, and
was eventually promoted to Colonel before serving on Coruscant when Thrawn attacked the planet. He earned the rank of Brigadier in
the New Republic Defense Fleet before retiring. He later became the commander of the Alliance Veterans Victory Association, and
maintained a position of trust and power within the New Republic. Major Derlin was portrayed by John Ratzenberger in Star Wars: The
Empire Strikes Back. (ESB, TLC, TT, ROJR, TTSB)
Derlin, Galen
this man was one of the most famous senators of the Old Republic, and a close friend of Bail Organa. He withdrew from politics
altogether when Emperor Palpatine rose to power, returning to his homeworld of Tiisheraan in order to get away from the corruption of
the Empire. However, he ws hunted down and assassinated by Imperial forces as a reminder of the power of the Empire. (TTSB)
Dermal Autostripper
found in many spas and resorts, this device is used by a number of alien races which continually shed their skin. (HSL)
Dermatoglyphic Identification
this form of indentifying individuals was developed by Jaso Corporation, and is often regarded as the finest physical identification
system in the galaxy. Although not as precise as retinal scanning, it uses a database which is much more readily available to other
systems. Dermatoglyphic identification takes a skin sample from the subject’s thumb or fingers, and a number of tests and analyses are
performed on the sample. Cytoplasmic biopsies and chitinous accretion analysis are the most useful tests for those species which do
not have dermatoglyphic patterns. This form of identification cannot distinguish between clones or other beings with identical genetic
material, and scar tissue or artificial skin grafts produce no results at all. One species which was abused by dermatoglyphic
identification was the Wookiee race, because their hands and feet were often scarred during attempts to escape capture by Imperial
slavers. Thus, the Imperials took skin samples from the sensitive skin on the Wookiees’ nose. (TA)

Derricon
this planet was loyal to the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. (SWJ13)
Derricote, Evir
a native of Kalla, Evir was an Imperial officer who found himself on the short end of many opportunities. He was one of the original
st st
members of the 181 Imperial Fighter Wing, and was in command of the ships when Soontir Fel was relegated to the 181 . As a
Colonel, Derricote was simply a figurehead after Fel's arrival, for Fel's military genius quickly overshadowed Derricote's. This served
Derricote just fine, as he would have rather spent more time with his mycosia flowers than in a cockpit. However, after decisive victories
at Ord Biniir and Derra IV, Derricote was prompoted to General and Fel was promoted to Colonel and took his place. It was Derricote
who discovered the forgotten Alderaan Biotics facility on Borelais. He maneuvered his way into an assignment in the Pyria System,
following the ambush of an Alliance supply convoy at Derra IV, and was eventually stationed on Borleias. He was a large, overweight
man. He used a series of false requisitions and orders to funnel funding and security from the remnants of the Empire to fund his secret
operation at the nearly-forgotten Alderaan Biotics hydroponics plant. He then supplied many black-market reellers with a continual flow
of Alderaanian delicacies, and made almost three millions credits before being discovered by Kirtan Loor. Derricote also used similar
tactics and bookkeeping maneuvers to strengthen the defenses around Borleias. He later was assigned by Ysanne Isard to develop
the Krytos virus, using the aliens found in the Invisible Sector of Coruscant. It was later learned that he was using Diric Wessiri as an
enslaved assistant, allowing Derricote to remain out of the actual contamination area. Once the Krytos virus was unleashed into the
water system of Imperial City, Isard had Derricote imprisoned in the Lusankya facility. She feared that he might expose her if he was
captured. He was killed in a scuffle with Corran Horn, who was also imprisoned at Lusankya. Horn was trying to escape, and was
followed by Derricote. The prisoner Jan had seen Derricote slip away, and arrived as Derricote attacked Horn. Jan managed to deflect
Derricote's initial attack, giving Horn time to smash Derricote's skull with a shovel. It was later discovered that Derricote had a hidden
storehouse of viruses aimed at various species throughout the galaxy, including the human race. (XWN, WG, KT, TEP, MBF)
Derrida
this Ketton spy operated on Kwenn Space Station during the early years of the New Order. Known to members of the Alliance as a sly
and cunning adversary, Derrida found herself in a kind of duel with Alliance operative Kassar Kosciusko after foiling five separate
Alliance operations on Kwenn. She also framed Lieutenant Commander Zhir-Khan, falsifying Kwenn records to make it appear as if
Zhir-Khan had betrayed the Alliance. Derrida was a known associate of the Kubaz spy Garindan, having spent some time on Tatooine
before relocating to Kwenn. (AIR)
Derriphan
these nightmarish creatures were born of the Dark Side of the Force, and were named for the Sith word meaning "devourer." These
creatures consumed the very thoughts and experiences of living beings, leaving behind the bodies without the living essense they once
contained. In order to feed, however, a Derriphan had to enter the body of its victim, take control of the victim’s mind, the drain off the
essense of the victim. These creatures were believed to have been extinct, having died out after the Great Sith War. However, a few
Derriphan managed to survive the battle, and existed during the Galactic Civil War. Those who claimed to have actually seen a
Derriphan said that the creatures resembled miniature black stars, roiling with energy. (WSV)

Des'mar
this was one of the two primary factions of the Saurton race. They considered themselves to be forward-looking visionaries who
welcomed the prosperity brought to Essowyn by the mining operations which worked in the asteroid belts. They were in the minority in
terms of numbers, but far exceeded the Quenno in wealth and power. (PG1)
Desaclates
this Exocron Airfleet cruiser captured a rogue Imperial probe droid near the planet, but was attacked by a group of pirates hoping to
retrieve the droid. The crew of the FarStar assisted the Airfleet, under the command of Horzao Darr, and managed to drive off the pirate
corsairs. Unfortunately, the Desaclates was severely damaged and crashed into the ocean of Exocron and was lost. The pirates
managed to obtain the probe droid, but the ship on which it was being carried was caught under the Desaclates and was also
destroyed. (KO)
Desanne
this man was a native of Kalist VI, and served the Empire as a Commander in the armed forces. Because of a political blunder which
occured shortly before the Battle of Hoth, Desanne was stripped of his official duties and relegated to acted as a liaison for travelling
Imperial dignitaries. (CCG5)
Desargorr
this planet, part of the Allied Tion, is known for its beautiful mountain ranges. (ML)
DeSelvaine, Trem
this Karflo Corporation scientist performed a series of experiments on a Polydroxol, hoping to discover if the creature was intelligent. He
worked for Administrator Renerdat, although he thought the Administrator a fool for trying to wipe out the Polydroxol just to obtain
profits from mining Sevetta. DeSelvaine's work was possibly the first real examination of the Polydroxol, and his work with a Polydroxol
individual produced a great deal of information on their biochemistry, morphing abilities, and intelligence. Unfortunately, the Polydroxol
individual - which he had nicknamed Polly - learned of Administrator Renerdat's plans to kill it and all members of its race on Sevetta.
Polly escaped, and killed all personnel aboard the Karflo research station. Despite his empathy for Polly, the Polydroxol associated
DeSelvaine with the others and killed him as well. (SWJ12)

Desh
1) this Imperial Governor was in control of the planet Gandrossi VI, in the Perrin Sector, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Desh lost a
large sum of credits in a sakresh game to the Devaronian merchant Ulicx Vinaq. In retaliation, Desh had Vinaq's ship loaded with
Imperial arms, then issued a warrant for the Devaronian's arrest, claiming that the merchant stole the weapons from Desh's armory.
(GG10)
2) this natural element was combined with terenthium to produce a super-light allow which was used by OmoTact Corporation to
manfuacture skyships like the Roahks 7m. (GG2)
Desh, Reck
this former smuggler was known for his flambouyant appearance, which including body piercings and tattooes. He also favored
electrum jewelry. A former acquaintance of Han Solo and Roa, Desh tried his luck as a mercenary for hire during the early years of the
New Republic. He even went so far as to sell his services to the Yuuzhan Vong, shortly after the Battle of Ithor. He joined a group of
renegades known as the Peace Brigades, and set out to foment unrest and distrust of the Jedi Knights. Han Solo and Roa tried to track
him down, shortly after the destruction of Obroa-skai. After Roa was captured on the Jubilee Wheel by the Yuuzhan Vong, Han ran into
Reck during the Peace Brigade's ambush of the Queen of Empire. The Brigade had hoped to recover the priestess Elan and return her
to the Yuuzhan Vong, despite the Vong's own plans to have Elan infiltrate the Jedi Knights. Elan was recovered by Han Solo, but Reck
and his mercenaries managed to expose her and take her to their ship. Han pursued, and found that Elan had exhaled a breath full of
bo'tous, which had killed the entire crew of the Peace Brigade's ship. Reck was among the dead. (HT)

Desnand, Feebee
this plump woman was Io Desnand’s wife. Feebee wore false eyelashes that were so large they resembled black-veined butterfly
wings. She favored full-length, animal-skin jackets. When Io had the Trandoshan bounty hunter Bossk in captivity on Aida, she asked
him to skin the beast to obtain a lizard-skin gown. (TBH)
Desnand, Io
this Imperial Governor was in control of the Aida and Lomabu Systems during the Galactic Civil War. He maintained a penal colony on
Lomabu III, where he held several hundred Wookiees. He had planned to use the Wookiees as bait in a trap to capture a major portion
of the Alliance fleet. However, Tinian I’att and Chenlambec had lured Bossk to Lomabu III at the same time, hoping to trap him by
claiming the Trandoshan was there to poach Wookiee pelts. Desnand’s plans were foiled when Tinian and Chen trapped Bossk before
he could launch his own plans. Desnand almost skinned the Trandoshan alive before Bossk managed to escape. (TBH, HM)
Desolate
the biologically-engineered starship used by Ber'asco and the Charon death cult to remove the “disease” of life from the realm of
Otherspace. Like a massive organic castle in space, the Desolate is an amorphous mass of strange, weblike constructs measuring over
450 meters at its longest point. It acts like a magnet to any ships traveling in Otherspace, drawing them to it and collecting them in a
weird belt which surrounds the ship. Those ships which contained information on new species of life were physically attached to the
Desolate so that Ber’asco could obtain information necesssary to destroy them. The weapons systems of the ship are hidden in rocky
pods which open to allow the firing of projectile weapons. The Desolate is a strangely dead ship, in keeping with the Charon beliefs
surrounding the Void. Consequently, the Desolate seemed to be a black hole which consumed the Force. There were four main decks
surrounding the central core, with a series of hollow tubes connecting adjacent levels. A docking bay of sorts is separated from the
vacuum of space by a penetratable membrane which seals itself as ships pass through it. The main bridge was the site of a large,
brain-like computer node. Ber’asco used this node to communicate with other lifeforms. The lowest part of the ship seemed to be a
manufacturing facility for the Charon red mist. After the Charon were first defeated by Alliance agents while in Otherspace, Ber’asco
had his bioscientists create a hyperdrive for the Desolate, so that it could jump into realspace and attack the galaxy beyond. However,
when Grand Moff Ravik’s mind took control of Ber’asco’s body, and Ber’asco’s mind took control of Bane Nothos’ body, the battle
between the two caused a small amount of damage to the ship’s control systems. Rather than emerging over the planet Stronghold, the
Desolate smashed into the world, sustaining huge amounts of damage as it skidded over the rocky surface. The ship was abandoned
on Stronghold, after Alliance soldiers overcame the Charon and defeated Ravik. (OS, OS2)
Desolation
this Dreadnaught-class heavy cruiser was part of Warlord Zsinj's third fleet. (SOC)
Desolation Alley
this was the name used by the inmates of the Galactic Correctional Authority's penal colony on Oovo IV to describe the prison's
cellblocks. (RAC)
Desolator
this Imperial-class Star Destroyer was assigned to Admiral Grendeef and the Miser base. It was destroyed when Alliance agents, trying
to recover the Isis cordinates from the crew of the Wanderer, reprogrammed the Star Destroyer's navigational comupter. The Desolator
made a sudden jump to hyperspace, and re-emerged at the center of the rogue star G-138. All hands were lost, including Admiral
Grendeef. (IC)
Despayre
a planet in the Horuz system, it was used as a penal colony by the Empire. The planet was covered in thick jungles that were fed by
wide rivers and shallow seas. An abundance of lifeforms inhabited the jungles, and many were predacious. Captives in the penal colony
were held in check with the threat of leaving them outside the colony's walls to fend for themselves. It here that the Empire found a
willing, if unruly, source of labor for the construction of the first Death Star. The huge battle station was erected in orbit, without regards
to the prisoners or the planet. The prisoners didn't realize it at the time, but the huge amount of scrap and debris that was created and
left in orbit effectively sealed the planet off from outside contact, since no sane pilot would fly his ship through the chaf. When the
prisoners became too unruly to effectively work on the Death Star, Tarkin went to Kashyyyk and captured some Wookiees to use as
slaves. Once the battle station was complete, Tarkin ordered the new superlaser tested immediately. The Empire's first successful use
of the weapon came when Tarkin fired on Despayre itself, killing all of the native life, the slave labor, and destroying the planet. (MTS,

this planet was a twin to the world of Dubrillion. Both were located near the asteroid system known as Lando's Folly. Brown and dirty
from space, Destrillion is an inhospitable world. Lando Calrissian, during his tenure as owner of Lando's Folly, set up great processing
plants on Destrillion, where ores from the asteroid field could be turned into usable materials. (VP)
Destroyer Droid
these large, mobile weapons platforms were created by the Trade Federation to augment their legions of battle droids. Destroyer droids
were built on a platform that could curl in upon itself and roll into battle. Once deployed, the destroyer would unfold itself, steadying its
massive form on three stout legs. Its arms were studded with laser cannons and projectile launchers, and its head was filled with
sensitive sensors and detectors used to local its targets. Models developed shourtly before the Battle of Naboo included small shield
generators, and a series in development had independent, programmable computer brains that freed them from the necessity of a
Droid Control Ship. The destroyer droids were also known as droidekas, and were produced by the Colicoids of Colla IV. The form of
the destroyer droid mirrors the forms of the Colicoids themselves, including the ability to roll up into a ball and surprise their targets.

Detainer
this Interdictor-class cruiser was under the command of Lieutenant Lon Donell during the early years of the New Republic. He used it to
drag Republic ships from hyperspace, then captured the ships for his own fleet. Donell was forced to man the ship with less than a full
crew, because his own troops were small in number. The Detainer was also short on support ships, carrying only a single TIE Fighter
squadron, a pair of Skipray blastboats, and two Gamma-class assault shuttles. (WBC)

placed a bounty in his head. Tark executed Detan in front of the New Republic troops, and managed to escape and claim the bounty.
(WBC)
Detention Task Force
this study group was formed within the Corporate Sector Authority to analyze the costs and methods of imprisonment in various
Authority and Imperial prison facilities. They determined that the New Order would likely lead to rebellion, and that a new breed of
prison would be required to maintain larger numbers of criminals. They proposed the Stars' End project, and were involved in the initial
design. The conclusion of the task force was that criminals could be stored in stasis booths, maintained in suspended animation until
their sentences were up. This cut down on most operational costs - like food, clothing, and accommodations - while ensuring the safety
of the prisoners. (CSA)
Dethro Glok
this being controlled much of the scrap trade which sprang up on the planet Ord Ibanna, after the gas mines there were abandoned. He
was known as a ruthless leader, although he was strictest about maintaining the repulsorlifts which kept the cities of the planet afloat
long enough to be salvaged. (RAC)
Dethro's Revenge
named for Dethro Glok, this was one of the many podraces which meandered through the cloud-cities of the planet Ord Ibanna during
the last decades of the Old Republic. (RAC)
Detien Kaileel
this Kabieroun served as the Kuari Princess' chief of security during the later years of the New Order. He fled his homeworld of
Kabieroun several years before the Empire began subjugating the world, and studied police science at Balaidas Academy before the
Empire closed it to non-humans. Detien then spent twenty or so years as a detective for the Mid-Rim Sentinel Agency before hiring on
with Galaxy Tours as a security officer. A good friend of Celia Durasha and Dap Nechel, neither knew that Kaileel was also a supporter
of the Alliance. On several runs with the Princess, Kaileel had been delivering guns and supplies to the underground on Mantooine,
which had attracted the attention of Adion Lang and the ISB. When he was arrested aboard the Princess, Celia tried to rescue him from
prison. She didn't believe that the rebellion was correct until Kaileel revealed that the Empire had destroyed Alderaan. When he was
captured by Lang, his resistance led to his demise as Lang shot him before he could board his shuttle and escape. (TFE, SWJ8)
Detonite
the most common explosive used in grenades and detonators. It is produced in moldable, fist-sized cubes. (SWSB, DESB)
Detonite Tape
this was a specialized form of explosive which found a wide market during the Galactic Civil War. D-tape (as it is referred to in the

tape was more flexible and adaptive to the shapes of doors, windows, and hatches. (ROE)
Dev, Yanix
to the casual acquiantence, Yanix Dev was an upstanding businessman who could have run any number of Inner Rim corporations. In

Devaron
this temperate world is home to the Devaronians and their cousins, the Devish. The terrain of Devaron is made up a low mountain
ranges with deep valleys, shallow lakes, and thousands of rivers. (GG4, SCRE)
Devaronian
these aliens are one of the most unique races in the galaxy, as their male and female sexes are so vastly different in appearance and
temperament. The males are docile, non-aggresive creatures with smooth, hairless skin and short horns on their heads. They takes
great pride in their horns, and groom them quite regularly. The females, on the other hand, are covered in calico fur and do not have
horns. They are aggressive by nature, and tend to dominate their culture. It is believed that they are descended from a race of primates
that lived in the mountains of Devaron, their homeworld, and that their horns were a genetic mutation that proved useful in fending off
predatory brids. Devaronians are carnivores and in general, have an efficient metabolism, consuming nearly every bit of food they eat.
This means that they don’t go to the toilet as often as other races. Devaronians were one of the first races to discover the secrets to
space travel and develop stardrives. (SW, SCRE, GG4, TBH)
Devaronian Blood-poison
this strange gemstone is a strange silver color. When the stone is rubbed into an open wound, or used as a weapon to pierce flesh, it
inflicts a painful poisoning into the bloodstream, which lingers for weeks unless treated immediately. (TPS)
Devastator
an Imperial-I class Star Destroyer famous for its capture of the Rebel ship Tantive IV, the Devastator was Darth Vader's personal
flagship until the Battle of Yavin. Prior to Vader's command, the Devastator. was the flagship of Lord Tion, who commanded it during
the destruction of an Alliance based on Ralltiir before his defection. It was later assigned to the fleet commanded by Darth Vader
aboard the Executor. (SWR, SWSB)
Devastator Torpedo
this weapon was developed during the last years of the Galactic Civil War by the Empire. Rolf Treidum and his fleet of ships patrolling
the Kathol Outback used one of these weapons on the planet Danoor, after Waric Nane failed to keep the FarStar and her crew on the
planet. The torpedo was launched at the planet, and created a blast radius of about 5 kilometers. Everything within the blast was
obliterated. The only drawback to the use of the devastator torpedo is that its launching system takes several minutes to recharge
between shots. (KO)

university she chose. Despite her parents' wishes, she decided to follow her own path and study xenobiology. After graduation, she
took a job working for a small company on Kal'Shebbol, but found herself actually working for Moff Sarne as a bioweapons developer.
When the New Republic liberated Kal'Shebbol and forced Sarne into hiding, Varel opted to serve aboard the FarStar rather than return

Devish
another race of Devaronians, the Devish resemble their cousins outwardly, but there are several social and physical differences. The
male Devish are born with sharp teeth used for hunting. The females are born with the sharp and blunt molars, and can survive on food
that would kill most males. About one male in every fifty is born with both sets of teeth, making him a kind of solitary but useful hunter.
Those Devish, male or female, with two sets of teeth, have the molars on the outer set and the sharp teeth on the inner set. The molars
can be retracted, leaving the sharp teeth clear for ripping meat. (TME)
Devisors
this social strata was the higher of the two which developed over the millennia on Exocron. Descended from the original engineers
aboard the Exocros Cabal, the Devisors were responsible for maintaining a safe and "good" level of technology for the rest of the
planet's inhabitants. The Devisors believed that technology and space travel were inherently evil, and made sure that nothing new
would come to harm the other colonists. This division of the population made the Devisors the unstated rulers of Exocron. However,
there were several pirate groups and corsairs who believed that the Devisors were holding the people of Exocron from joining the rest
of the galaxy. One group, led by Eida Sharden, managed to finally break the Devisors' hold on the population. After assisting Horzao
Darr and Kaiya Adrimetrum in freeing the FarStar, Pagda Gevtes was captured and the Devisors were reduced in stature. (KO)
Devist, Carib
this tallgrain farmer from the Dorchess Valley of the planet Pakrik Minor was actually one of the sleeper agents dispersed throughout
the galaxy by Grand Admiral Thrawn, and was a member of cell Jenth-44. Carib was “activated” by Grodin Tierce, shortly after the
revelation of the Caamas Document. Like his brother, Sabmin, Carib was also a clone of Soontir Fel, bred for his piloting skills in case
Thrawn needed additional pilots in his war against the New Republic. However, Fel's love of the outdoors and his family somehow
made it into his makeup, and the Devists decided that they didn't want to fight when the orders came through. They opted to negotiate
with Leia Organa-Solo for their freedom. Carib agreed to help the New Republic by taking a doctored recording of an alien starship to
the nearest Ubiqtorate base, in hopes that it would be rerouted to Bastion. Han Solo and Lando Calrissian could then travel to Bastion
and retrieve a copy of the Caamas Document. In the meantime, Devist agreed to served as the diplomatic representative to the New
Republic from Pakrik Minor. He threw in his full support of President Gavrisom, and was used as a rallying point. He was also able to
identify several Imperial ships among those gathered around Bothawui, and was instrumental in the discovery of the Tyrannic. (SOP,

for action. Like his brother, Carib, Sabmin was also a clone of Soontir Fel, bred for his piloting skills in case Thrawn needed additional
pilots in his war against the New Republic. However, Fel's love of the outdoors and his family somehow made it into his makeup, and
the Devists decided that they didn't want to fight when the orders came through. They opted to negotiate with Leia Organa-Solo for their
freedom. (SOP, VOF)

Paulsen, but his good looks and roguish style earned him a quick position in the criminal underground. His skills with sabacc cards got
him hired by Tiranga the Hutt, who employed Chase as a "luck-buster." Whenever a customer of Tiranga's Loft got too lucky and
started winning, Chase was sent in to call their bluff. His success rate at stopping these runs created a healthy rivalry between Chase
and some of the galaxy's best sabacc players, and his ability to beat them has helped fill Tiranga's coffers. (BSS)

this creature is native to the planet Algara II, and reaches lengths of three meters or more. These python-like mollusks exude a burning,
acidic slime which helps them kill their prey. Their eyes are useless. Instead, they use two antennae to locate prey, which they draw
into a toothless mouth after the acidic slime has started to break it down. (PG2)
Dhol
this octopus-like ruler of Cheelit was an avid Firepath player. She existed in a floating glass globe. When Darth Vader tried to escape
from the Guild of Vindicators, he attempted to lure them to him by playing Firepath with Dhol. She agreed, and Vader played the role of
inferior to a tea. She played a masterful game, but Vader's game was better. The assassin Clat the Shamer was lured onto the

were carrying a strain of the Hardan Plague, which eventually killed 98% of the planet’s population. (COG)
DH107
Herzfall Corporation's head-mounted communications device, it resolved the jamming problems encountered when using SoroSuub's
DH77 headcomm. They were used in stormtrooper helmets. The DH107 had a special decoding sequence built into its firmware, which
was activated when the helmet was placed on the trooper’s head. It randomly changed frequencies according to a platoon shifting
sequence, which made tracking the transmission nearly impossible. The sequence could only be halted by throwing a small tongue
switch as the trooper removed the helmet. Otherwise, the decoding sequence would be erased, rendering the communications system
useless. Airen Cracken once found that, if a person linked a sabacc skifter to the DH107 module, the skifter could relay information
about what frequency was most likely to be used next. (ISB, CFG)
DH77
SoroSuub's version of a lightweight communications device which can be attached to headgear (helmet, headset, etc.). Designed for
use in stormtrooper helmets, they were replaced by Herzfall's DH107 because the DH77 was easily jammed by high energy particle
emissions. (ISB, CFG)
Di-crome
this reflective material is often used on camouflage coverings, such as tents and shelters. When inert, a fabric impregnated woth di-
crome reflects all light around it. When electrically charged, however, the di-crome coating absorbs ambient light. The fabric then

this Twi’lek female was born Diap'assik. After being sold into slavery, Dia learned to fly starships from her owner, who naively believed
she was an air-headed female. When her owner was visited by a being with an armed shuttle, she escaped by stealing the shuttle and
blowing her owner’s ship, the Violet Hem, out of the sky. She fled to the New Republic, turned over the shuttle, and applied for
starfighter training. She even asked to join Wraith Squadron, after hearing of their assault on the Implacable, and joined the squadron
shortly before they were assigned to take out Warlord Zsinj. Dia brought a wealth of knowledge about flying starships, but also great
deal of information on the activities of smugglers and pirates. She proved herself to be an excellent fighter pilot, both in simulations and
in actual combat. She was given the position of Wraith Four, acting as Wes Janson’s wingman, following the deaths of Falynn
Snadskimmer and Eurrsk Thri’ag. When the Wraiths were assigned to the Mon Remonda in support of the hunt for Warlord Zsinj, she
rejected the offer of friendship from Nawara Ven, since she hated everything to do with the planet Ryloth, including those members of
the Twi'lek species who managed to avoid slavery. She was also instrumental in the deception of the Hawk-bat Independent Space
Force, portraying Captain Seku. In this guise, however, she was forced to execute Castin Donn, who had stowed away on their mission
to meet with Warlord Zsinj and was discovered. She complied, realizing that Castin was already near to death, but the action left her
with intense psychological scars. She eventually recovered from the shock of killing Castin, and participated in several Hawk-bat raids,
including assisting Warlord Zsinj in his attempt to steal the Razor's Kiss from Kuat. Over time, she fell in love with Garik Loran, although
they were forced to keep their relationship a secret until decorum allowed. (IF, SOC)

Diamal
this white-maned race of sentients was involved in a minor shipping security dispute with the Ishori, shortly before the Caamas Incident.
The Diamals didn’t trust the Ishori patrol ships which escorted Diamalan transports into Ishori ports. Han Solo and Luke Skywalker tried
to resolve the conflict, but were unable to do so. Instead, the dispute grew into a large-scale political battle with the revelations of the
Bothan involvement in the destruction of Caamas. The Diamlan Senators firmly believed in the “forgive and forget” solution to the
problem, while the Ishori wanted justice to take more physical form. They are a very honorable race, and respected the heroes of the
Galactic Civil War. They are also very stoic, often described as unemotional. (SOP)

and talked Diergo-Rea into financing the trip. They succeeded in locating the treaaure, and began to remove as much as they could
before the water levels rose with the tides. However, they were double-crossed by K'zk, who left them to die when the tides began filling
the treasure chamber. The two Weequay were eventually rescued by another group of vacationers, but found themselves flat broke.
They hoped one day to return to Zelos II and recover more of the treasure. (TFNR)

a huge planetary system consisting of 40 planets. The inner 22 are intensely-irradiated by the system's primary star, a gigantic
blue-white fireball. The outer 17 planets are too far away to receive any heat from the star, and are froxen wastes. The middle planet is
perfectly situated to allow life to exist there. (LCF)
Dilonexa XXIII
the middle planet in the Dilonexa System, it is composed of large quantities of lighter elements. Thusly, it has very few natural metals,
and must import them in massive quantities. Dilonexa XXIII is an agrarian world; since there are very few bodies of water larger than a
small lake, the land has been cultivated into vast farms. It is approximately 25,000 kilometers in diameter. Due to its large land masses,
the planet used to be ravaged by huge, city-sized tornadoes that streaked around the entire planet. This required that a series of large
weather-control satellites be launched into orbit, in order to keep the farms running without a major disaster each year. (LCF)
Dilorr, Tergeth
this former Imperial conscript jumped ship the first chance he got, and spent much of his early life wandering from planet to planet,

of the New Republic. (GG11)
Din, J'fe
this holovid star was widely popular in the Larrin Sector, despite the Empire's best efforts to bring her down. Her most popular show,
Starflash, provided viewers with a regular series of hair-raising adventures. In reality, J'fe and her producers were strong supporters of
the Alliance, and sent out a variety of coded messages to Alliance agents in Larrin Sector during each episode. J'fe made sure that the
messages were undetectable by the average viewer, but obvious to the agents who were looking for them. Many historians believe that
J'fe and Starflash quickened the downfall of the Empire in Larrin Sector by a year or more. J'fe and her team later went on to produce
Imperial Truth, a show which debuted after the Empire was forced out of Larrin Sector and which described the true nature of Emperor
Palpatine's evil government. (HR)

Disim
this tropical planet is a twin to the planet Iri, and is located in the Epidimi System. Like its twin, Disim is covered with dense forests and
humid rainforests. The system was discovered by the Old Republic some 5,000 years before the Galactic Civil War, and discovered
that both worlds had produced species of avians which had similar genetic structures. The Old Republic explorers tried to get the two
species to mate, in an attempt to verify their genetic compatability. The experiment was a success, and a new species was created
from the union of the two. However, the new species flourished while the two parent species died out. This new species, known as the
Tarongs, now dominates both worlds. (GG12)

delicacy by the Hutts, but there is a short period of time in which the divvik are edible. After hatching from their pupal stage, they grow
almost immediately into adults. The adults are nothing short of killing machines which prefer to dine on living flesh, despite the fact that
they are less than a foot tall. The ball-shaped adults move about on two long legs, and use their arms to help them climb and grasp
objects. Their whip-like tail is tipped with a dagger-like claw. The skin of the adult divvik is impervious to blaster fire, and their bite
contains an acidic poisonous saliva which causes paralysis in most species, and can eat through plastisteel over time. If injured or
otherwise cut, the divvik releases a toxic gas from their digestive system. The only safe way to eliminate a divvik is to suffocate it, but
this often takes a long time. (PTR)

Dlarit, Aerin
this native of Thyferra was one of the higher managers in the Xucphra bacta corporation. He was also appointed a General in the
Thyferran Home Defense Corps when Ysanne Isard took control of Thyferra. He had no real duties, but was a perfect public relations
man for Isard. He was also Erisi Dlarit's father, which made him a prime target for Rogue Squadron's ground forces during the early
stages of the Battle of Thyferra. They made an assault on the Dlarit estate, which was set on a small knoll at the base of an extinct
volcano and protected by a ring of Comar TriTracker batteries. In an effort to stir up the Vratix and embarras the Bacta Cartel, Aerin
was executed by Elscol Loro and Iella Wessiri and left in his den, slumped over the desk and completely naked. (BW)
Dlarit, Erisi
a native of Thyferra, she was selected to become a member of X-Wing Rogue Squadron because she was also a member of the
Xucphra faction, and was thought to have been complementary to the addition of Bror Jave to the Squadron. However, it was later
discovered that Dlarit was actually working as a spy for Ysanne Isard and the Imperial factions which supported the bacta cartels. She
was planted to provide information on the New Republic's reactions to the Krytos virus, which would guarantee that the bacta cartels
would continue to monopolize the market under Imperial control. She was discovered as a spy when her ship malfunctioned and was
captured by the Lusankya as it escaped from Coruscant. Her astromech reported no malfunction, and relayed the deliberate flight plan
that took her into the Lusankya's holds. Once back on Thyferra, Erisi was appointed a flight leader among the Thyferran Home Defense
Corps, and became romantically involved with Fliry Vorru. Their romance was short-lived, though, as Vorru was taken prisoner by Iella
Wessiri and Elscol Loro, and Erisi was forced into defending her homeworld in the Battle of Thyferra. She managed to destroy Nawara
Ven's X-Wing, but the Twi'lek managed to eject before being engulfed in flames. She was rewarded by becoming the target of Corran
Horn, who managed to fire on her before she could escape to hyperspace. Horn's shots were on-target, and Erisi was killed when her
ship simply disintegrated. (XWN, WG, KT, BW)

Dllr Nep
a Sullustan X-Wing pilot, Dllr served under Wedge Antilles as part of Rogue Squadron following the Battle of Endor. He joined the
fledgling New Republic after Sullust began moving toward a relationship with them, and found the galaxy much to his liking. He was
particularly interested in the various musical styles of the galaxy, although his taste in music often got on his fellow Rogues' nerves.
When the Rogues were dispatched to search for the Starfaring near Malrev, Dllr began hearing the most beautiful music coming from
the planet. He thought the music was a product of the planet, and could even see the music in front of him. However, the music was
actually the power of the Dark Side of the Force being channelled by the mad Devaronian, Cartariun. Cartariun used the Dark Side to
lure Dllr to his temple, where Cartariun began channeling more energy with Dllr's belief in the music. Dllr was mentally linked to Herian
I'ngre by this music, which both had heard. However, Herian recognized the Dark Side before she could be overtaken. She willed Dllr to
resist, which he was able to to for a short time. However, in the end, Dllr gave himself as the ultimate sacrifice. He absorbed the Sith
energy wielded by Cartariun and tried to turn it against the Devaronian, but was shot in the back by Girvo Dza'tey. Later, having
survived the blast, Dllr helped Herian to safety. However, both sacrificed themselves in eliminating Cartariun, flying Herian's X-Wing into
his temple and destroying it. (XWRS, XWRR, HXW)

Doaba, Iann
this ancient warrior was a Jedi Knight, and was one of the original colonists to settle the planet Socorro. He fell in love with Cjaalysce
Beal, and actually killed a man who tried to steal her love from him. His conscience, laden with guilt, led him to exile himself from the
rest of the colonists. His self-imposed exile - dooming himself to wander around the open desert - later became known as The Long
Walk among the Ibhaan'I shamen. When Cjaalysce learned of his exile, she fled into the desert in search of him. She was lost for many
weeks, until her dessicated body was found on a rocky outcropping. Beneath the body, searchers found Iann's robes and his lightsaber.
They also found an indelible shadow of his form, and it was generally believed that Iann's grief was so great that it consumed him. The
shadow, the past vestige of Iann's spirit, was rumored to have attached itself to a portait of Cjaalysce, and was witnessed wherever the
portait was shown. Benoni Ulte came into possession of the portait during the early years of the New Order, and himself claimed to
have seen Ian's shadow hovering about it. (BSS)
Doaba Badlands
a desert region of the planet Socorro, the Doaba Badlands cover nearly three-quarters of the planet's surface. Hidden water reserves

Doallyn
one of the hunters who answered Jabba the Hutt's call for the capture of a live krayt dragon, Doallyn is a native of the planet Geran. He
has strange, bluish skin and light eyes, and the skin on his face was horribly scarred from a attack by a Corellian sand panther. As a
native of Geran, Doallyn required hydron-3 in the air he breathed. Thus, when he came to Tatooine, a trace-breather was added to the
helmet he wore as part of his hunter's armor. Doallyn was captivated by the sights and sounds of Mos Eisley, and sampled too much
liquor when he arrived. He ended up in a high-stakes game of wildstar and woke up to find he had signed on as one of Jabba's palace
guards for a year. Jabba kept Doallyn dependent and loyal by doling out daily doses of hydron-3. When Jabba left for the Pit of
Carkoon to execute Luke Skywalker, Doallyn was left behind. There, he befriended Yarna d'al' Gargan. They both were met by Tessek
when he returned from the Pit with news of Jabba's death, but neither listened to Tessek when he stated he was in charge of the
palace. Instead, they fled the palace and headed to Mos Eisley, to rescue Yarna's cubs. Along the way, Doallyn made use of his
knowledge of the krayt dragon to kill one that got in their way. He took the pearls from the beast's belly and saved them for Yarna, who
used them to pay for the release of her cubs. The group then left Tatooine, stopping first on Geran before deciding to live as free
traders aboard their starship. (TJP)

Doc
a female phlog, Dobah was the mate of Zut. Together, they had two offspring, Hoom and Nahkee. (ECAR)
Doc
1) formerly known as Klaus Vandangante, Doc was an only child born on the planet Coruscant. He was doted on by his widowed
mother, Carmilla Vandangante, living in luxury and privilege. As a youth, this was maddeningly boring, and he rebelled by programming
the droids to stop feeding him food he didn't like. His mother and tutors discovered his "new talents," and restructured his lessons.
Klaus soon became a gifted student, and graduated with honors.Following graduation, Klaus was offered a job with Alkherrodyne
Propulsions. He quickly accepted, but was unprepared for corporate life. Alkherrodyne had a company policy of programmed
obsolescense, something that Klaus didn't learn in school. He chafed against the ideals of creating useful, reliable tools and the need to
maintain the bottom line. When Alkherrodyne's Azaria 66 began exploding in the field, they needed a scapegoat to blame it on. They
chose Klaus, who was summarily fired and taken to court. After several legal battles, Klaus Vandangante was financially and
professionally bankrupt. The fact that Alkherrodyne also went bankrupt was of little consequence, for Klaus no longer existed. He began
wandering the galaxy as the spacer called Doc, and found himself in Corporate Sector space. There, he met the beautiful young
smuggler Shardra, who introducde him to her own network of spacers. He found work as a starship mechanic, showing an incredible
ability to make any modification work reliably, and his results were highly effective. He fell in love with Shardra, and the couple soon
gave birth to a daughter, Jessa. However, Shardra's sudden death in a fuel dump explosion once again rocked Doc's world. This time,
however, he had Jessa to fall back on, and he dedicated himself to her education and growth. She, like her father, showed a great
mechanical aptitude, and she stayed on with him to further his outlaw tech business. He and Jessa recruited the best techs they could
find, and have been helping everyone from smugglers to the Alliance. This is how they got tangled up with Han Solo, a brash young
pilot who was constantly repairing his ship, the Millennium Falcon. However, Doc's repairs soon came under the scrutiny of the
Corporate Sector Authority, who had laid out the regulations for starship modifications. Much of Doc's work involved skirting these
regulations and most of his modifications were deemed illegal. Doc suddenly disappeared, part of the sector-wide sweep of criminals
placed in the Stars' End detention facility.Han Solo trusted Doc to make most repairs to the Falcon, and went to see him when the loss
of his sensor dish in a weapons run to Duroon. However, Doc had already been kidnapped for incarceration at Stars' End. When Han
learned this, he agreed to help Jessa rescue Doc. Han and his group of adventurers were able to infiltrated the detention center and
rescue the captives, including Doc, who returned to his modification business with Jessa. (HSE, CSA)
2) this was the nickname given to the FX-series medical droid modified by Massad Thrumble. Doc – originally designated AOI-C - was
a one-of-a-kind, and had the upper section of the FX series mounted on a treaded base. Thrumble programmed the droid with top-of-
the-line medical and surgical skills, and gave it the necessary tools to perform surgery on any number of species. Doc considered the
reprogramming of Guri- who rescued the droid from Spinda Caveel – to be a “wonderful technical challenge.” (SEE)

Shawpees, Dodo and Falk joined Jabba the Hutt's ring of informants. Falk was eventually killed for spying, but Dodo remained with
Jabba's group, and even joined the bands that played in the palace. After Jabba's death, Dodo sneaked into the palace and stole some
valuable treasures before fleeing Tatooine forever. (RJSE, CCG9, MTSE)
Dodonna/Blissex
this small company, formed by Jan Dodonna and Walex Blissex, are the manufacturers of the RZ-1 A-Wing starfighter. (SCRE)
Dodonna
named for General Jan Dodonna, the Dodonna was a flagship assault frigate in the New Republic's fleet. The ship was part of Wedge
Antilles' flight group, which he commanded from the Yavaris, during the search for General Madine and the Darksaber. (DS)
Dodonna, Jan
Jan Dodonna was one of the Old Republic's foremost military tacticians. Along with his friend and comrade Adar Tallon, they were a
formidable pair. Tallon's ability to manipulate ship-to-ship combat complimented Dodonna's logistical mind and siege tactics. Dodonna
was one of the first Star Destroyer Captains for the Old Republic. When Dodonna first heard of Tallon's death, he retired. Soon after,
Palpatine's New Order was implemented, and the military records of the Old Republic's finest officers were scrutinized. Dodonna was
deemed too old to retrain, and was ordered for execution. A timely intervention by the Alliance, coupled with the knowledge of him
impending execution, turned Dodonna toward the Alliance. He defected to the Alliance, and became one of their greatest strategists.
Deep in his heart, he felt the need to help the Alliance turn the tide, for he saw the Empire using is greatest strategies against the
Alliance, primarily in the Siege of Dalron V and the infamous Project Asteroid. He was placed in charge of the attack on the first Death
Star, and agonized without sleep over the plans delivered by Leia Organa. His keen insight discovered the flaw in the reactor shaft, and
he organized the snubfighter battle around it. With the Death Star gone, Dodonna was placed in charge of defending Yavin 4 until a
new base could be found. He discovered that his son, Vrad, had been severely injured in an attack on the Super Star Destroyer
Executor, and later died of his injuries. He helped destroy a wing of Imperial TIE Bombers that attacked Yavin 4, but was critically
wounded in the battle. He was captured by the Imperials, and was imprisoned at the Lusankya facility. Known as the "Old Man,"
Dodonna was the unofficial leader of the prisoners working in the mines when Corran Horn was sent there. Jan helped Corran escape
the facility, but couldn't escape with Horn without endangering the other prisoners. When Horn made his attempt, Jan noticed that Evir
Derricote was attempting to follow him. Jan pursued Derricote and deflected his first attack on Horn. Corran was able to kill Derricote
with the very shovel Derricote attacked him with. Jan remained behind when Corran left, and was probably transported to Thyferra
when the Lusankya left Coruscant. Dodonna and the other prisoners were transported to the planet Ciutric by Ysanne Isard's clone,
where they were held and drugged to ensure their compliance. Isard's clone pretended to move them every so often, using elaborate
chambers and neurological drugs to make them believe they were travelling through hyperspace. In fact, they never left the planet.
After the Battle of Bilbringi, the New Republic joined forces with the real Ysanne Isard, and was able to launch an assault on Ciutric.
Dodonna and the remaining Lusankya prisoners were rescued by Corran Horn. Dodonna was eventually reunited with Adar Tallon, who
had been discovered hiding on Tatooine and persuaded to join the Alliance some years before. The two, along with Vanden Willard,
were known as the "Gray Cadre" among the Alliance's military. Note that The Truce at Bakura depicts Dodonna as an active member of
the fledgling New Republic, and as the developer of the Battle Analysis Computer. After his rescue from Ciutric, Dodonna went on to
become a competent statesman for the New Republic before he retired to New Alderaan, thinking that most of the battle with the
Empire was over. He was quite surprised at the advent of Grand Admiral Thrawn and the new life shown by the remnants of the
Empire, and so he came out of retirement and became one of the New Republic's most trusted military advisors, helping to turn the tide
during the Battle of Calamari. Dodonna is portrayed by Alex McCrindle in Star Wars. (SW, DE1, DESB, EGC, CSW, KT, IR)
Dodonna, Vrad
the son of Jan Dodonna, Vrad fled from an encounter with the Executor just before the Battle of Hoth. He escaped from the battle in a
shuttle and hid behind a nearby moon until the battle was completed. Vrad had a great fear of dying in battle, which he tried to conceal
from his father. He faked battle damaged to his shuttle with a blaster and returned to Yavin 4. Han Solo and Luke Skywalker were able
to see through the deception, but couldn't decide how to approach General Dodonna about it. In an effort to make up for his perceived
cowardice, Vrad volunteered to take the last power gem into battle against the Executor. Dodonna named Luke as his backup, which
worried Luke. Luke confronted Vrad about his suspicions, but Vrad knocked him unconscious. They had to put their differences aside
as the mission began, but Vrad panicked when he encountered the ship again. He was able to penetrate the Star Destroyer's defenses
and momentarily drop some of its shields, but the power gem's effects were short-lived, and the Executor survived. Vrad then landed on
a small moon and dropped off Luke, them returned to ram the Star Destroyer with his own ship, sacrificing himself in hopes of doing
more damage to the Executor. Following Vrad's death, Luke was promoted to Commander. Note that the Star Wars Radio Drama
indicates Luke wasn't promoted to Commander until Narra's death. (CSW)

Dogder, Ghitsa
this woman was a Hutt counselor for most of her career, although she freelanced as a smuggler with Fenig Nabon during the early
years of the New Republic. She had a Coruscanti accent, but not the bearing of a noble. She was at one time a counselor for the
Desilijic kajidic, but had since worked for the Besadii clan. Ghitsa's family had been acting as Hutt counselors, helping facilitate
business between the Hutts and the Core Worlds, for nearly 150 years. She had met Fenig on Socorro a couple of years after the Battle
of Endor, and they formed a loose partnership. When Ghitsa negotiated the services of a group of Twi'leki dancers for Durga, it struck
her as an act that was morally wrong. Every the schemer, Ghitsa contracted the Mistryl to help transport the dancers, then verbally
abused and goaded the Mistryl pilots. This was all in an effort to have the Mistryl become angry and force them off the ship. That way,
Ghitsa could claim to Durga that the dancers had been stolen, ensuring that the Mistryl would help get them to safety. Ghitsa had Fen
reprogram the Fury's ID codes to those of the Indenture, then told Durga that the Karazak slave ship stole the dancers. In fury, Durga
expelled Ghitsa from her position as Hutt counselor, another outcome she had hoped to achieve. Shortly afterward, the Star Lady was
stranded on Prishardia, the victim of sabotage by Culan Brasli and the Desilijic clan, and Ghitsa posed as a Jedi Knight in order to con
the locals out of their hard-earned credits. She was waylayed, and had to be rescued by Fen and Kyp Durron. However, Ghitsa
managed to steal information on the Orko SkyMine project from Counselor Ral, and later turned it over to Talon Karrde for distribution
to the New Republic authorites. (TFNR)
Dogo
this New Republic Navy E-Wing pilot worked with Esege Tuketu to take out the Black Nine shipyards during the Battle of ILC-905. Dogo

Dola
this near-sentient tree, native to the planet Aruza, produces small flowers which are sensitive to touch. If approached abruptly, the
flowers retreat into thin shoots. However, if tenderly coaxed out, the flowers can be harvested for the thick juice they exude. The
Aruzans then process the juice into an antibiotic fluid. (TBH)
Dolas, Sarra
Lando Calrissian was smittened with this woman some years after he took control of Cloud City. Once, during a match in which Sarra
sat with Narka Tobb instead of Calrissian, Lando actually folded a hand he couldn’t win and opted not to bluff his way out. Lobot
remembered it, for it was the only time he could remember the gambler not bluffing. (TT)
Doldrums
this star was nicknamed by the New Republic for its featureless, uninhabited planets. Located on the inner edge of the Rim territories,
Wedge Antilles used it as a destination for Wraith Squadron during their hyperspace navigational training. (WS)
Doldur
this planet is the primary world in the Doldur System, and is the sector capital for the Doldur Sector. It was an area of intense rebellion
during the Galactic Civil War, but it was ruthlessly suppressed by Moff Eisen Kerioth. By controlling imports of foodstuffs and other
necessities, he quelled the uprisings and made the planet a model of Imperial efficiency. (TFE)
Dolfrimia

Battle of Yavin. (GG10)
Dolomar
this planet was the capital world in a galactic sector held by the New Republic which resisted Thrawn's attacks more strongly than Ukio
or Ando. A world of frozen glaciers and ice-capped mountains, the colonists who settled there were forced to build underground cities to
escape the bitter cold. (TLC, TTSB)
Dolovite
a metal mined on Nkllon (TLC)
Dolph
this native of Almania was somewhat Force sensitive. At a young age, he witnessed the brutality of the Je'Har, as they ravaged his
village and took his parents prisoner. He managed to avoid capture, only to witness his parents' deaths. The Je'Har had them tied to
posts and left to suffer in the harsh, summer sun outside their palace. It took his parents a week to die of hunger, dehydration, and
sunstroke. He never forgot this, even when he began training as a Jedi under Luke Skywalker. One of several students who left the
praxeum, Dolph returned to Almania with a plan to avenge his parents and gain control of the galaxy. Dolph felt that the Light and Dark
sides of the Force were descriptions used by the Jedi to limit their students. He felt that Darth Vader returned to the Light Side only
because he had nothing left to live for. Using the failed Jedi Brakiss as a tool, and gathering a substantial force around him, Dolph
assumed the monicker of Kuellar, an ancient Almanian army general who was ruthless in his approach. As Kuellar, he exterminated the
Je'Har by planting specially-built droids in their midst. He adopted the use of a Hendanyn death mask after discovering one among the
ruins of the Je'Har temples, and began collecting similar masks from around the galaxy. The droids he used to defeat the Je'Har were
built by Brakiss, and contained remotely-controlled bombs. The droids had been two years in the making and distribution. Dolph
detonated the droids at a specific time, wiping out all but the Je'Har leaders. The leaders he captured and tortured for a week, avenging
the deaths of his parents. Next, he used similar tactics to wipe out the population of Pydyr, the affluent moon of Almania. He then
placed similar droids - as well as specially-rigged flight computers for new X-Wings - in the possession of the New Republic. He used a
series of smuggling contacts in the Smuggler's Run to deliver the bombs. He succeeded in destroying the Senate Assembly Chamber,
and began to terrorize Leia Organa-Solo via the Force. As the New Republic began to discover what he was all about, he drew Luke
Skywalker and Leia to Almania. There, he hobbled Luke and tried to capture Leia. However, the intervention of Han Solo and a
shipment of ysalamiri blovked Dolph from the Force, and allowed Leia to break through his visions and clearly see him. She shot him in
the head with a blaster, ending his reign of terror. (TNR)
Dolstan
one of the three primary planets in the Pimbrellan League, Dolstan was the original planet settled by the Pinacists. A dry world covered
with plains and deserts broken by salt-water lakes, Dolstan's soil is nevertheless fertile. Farming is one of the primary activities on
Dolstan, and the planet provides much of the food for the Pimbrellan League's many colonies. (KO)
Doluff, Lob
the Administrator Senior of the Oseon System, Lob Doluff knew that Lando Calrissian had won a huge profit in the system while playing
sabacc. He invited Lando back to the system from Dilonexa XXIII to play some more sabacc. Lob Doluff is a pear-shaped man with a
dark beard and a bald head. He has been described as having an ingratiating manner, and although he is an enthusiastic sabacc
player, he isn't very good. He collects flowering plants as a hobby, concentrating on those species that are beautiful, fragrant, and
persistent. He is also heavily addicted to the drug lesai. Doluff had been trying to arrest Bohhuah Mutdah for awhile, and saw Lando as
a way to get near him. When Lando killed Kenow on Oseon 6845, Doluff charged him with carrying a concealed weapon - a capital
offense - but gave him an out, provided Lando would transport Bassi Vobah and Waywa Fybot to Mutdah's asteroid during the
Flamewind. (LCF)

Dometown
an underground city that was built by Lando Calrissian and a group of investors on Coruscant, Dometown was designed to provide a
tranquil place to live for the beings who worked in the hectic city above. However, the populace of Coruscant never warmed up to the
idea, and the operation went bankrupt. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, the New Republic Defense Force began fortifying
Dometown, hoping to use it as a refuge for the leadership of the New Republic. It was believed that they could survive an invasion of
Coruscant within its walls, but some members of the Defense Force felt that the work on Dometown undermined the efforts of the New
Republic to remain positive in the face of incredible destruction. (AC, JE)
Domi
this ancient Galacian was a member of the Hill People, and one of Elan's strongest supporters. It was Domi who knew about Elan's true
past, which he revealed to Qui-Gon Jinn after Giba attempted to assassinate her. (MOC)
Dominant
an Imperial Carrack-class cruiser used by Pter Thanas as command ship during the battle with the Ssi-ruuk. The ship was originally
commissioned about ten years before the Battle of Endor, and was sent to join the Imperial defense of Dufilvian and Filve. However, it
was damaged in battle against the Crimson Nova pirates near F'Dann IX, and recalled for repairs. It was later assigned to the Filve
reserve fleet before being sent to subjugate Bakura. Because of the lack of resistance put up by the Bakurans, the Dominant was left
behind as the flagship of Thanas' Imperial fleet. It was the Dominant which Thanas used to destroy the Flurry. After the Alliance was
able to overwhelm the Imperial fleet, Thanas surrendered the Dominant to the Alliance. The Dominant was armed with ten heavy
turbolasers and twenty laser cannons, but lacked the normal tractor beam projectors. (TB, TBSB)
Dominator
1) this Victory-class Star Destroyer eliminated an Alliance training base on Taul. It was specially modified to be driven by the latest

rescued (543). He was known for high standards of discipline. (HR)
Doneer
this race of insectile beings was native to the planet Doneer'so. They were known as excellent technicians and builders, and were
meticulous and extremely hard-working. While they are not adept at original thinking and design, they have incredible skills at taking
existing plans and implementing them. This made the Doneer the finest ship-builders in the Fakir Sector, during the New Order. They
live in city-hives on the planet, many of which were sympathetic to the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. (SWCP)
Doneer'so
this planet, the primary world of the Doneer'so System in Fakir Sector, was the homeworld of the Doneer race. (SWCP)
Donell, Lon
this Imperial Navy Lieutenant was the first officer on the Detainer, until he managed to assumed command of the Interdictor cruiser. He
used the ship as a pirate would, projecting gravity wells into hyperspace to drag New Republic ships out of hyperspace for capture. This
tactic allowed Donell to obtain supplies as well as starships, which he used to form his own personal fleet. (WBC)
Donn, Castin
this young, eager man joined Wraith Squadron shortly before the Anew Republic began tracking down Warlord Zsinj. A native of
Coruscant, he was known as a computer slicer and systems specialist. A blond-haired youth, he had been a quiet supporter of the
Alliance until the Emperor was killed at Endor. He managed to obtain an Alliance transmission of the destruction of the second Death
Star, and broadcast it on the HoloNet before the Empire could put its own propaganda spin on the event. Caston joined the celebration
which broke out across Imperial City, and was present when stormtroopers opened fire on the Alliance supporters. He watched in
horror as a young was shot in the head, and barely managed to catch her baby before it hit the ground. This unnecessary, brutal act
was etched in his mind, and he fled Imperial reprisal by forging himself a new identity and took the first transport off Coruscant. He then
sought out the Alliance and offered them his technical skills. He later applied for starfighter training, and managed to pass despite the
fact that he regularly shirked most of his non-flight duties and had a mild xenophobic streak. Wedge Antilles took a chance on him,
hoping that this overall attitude would shape up. Wedge went so far as to assigned Castin to quarters with Hohass Ekwesh, in an effort
to make Castin see that the galaxy is made up of all kinds of beings, not just humans. Castin was assigned the position of Wraith Two,
as Wedge’s wingman, following the death of Jesmin Ackbar. As the squadron's computer expert, Castin developed a portable program
which would allow them to detect the location of the Iron Fist and help pinpoint Warlord Zsinj's location. Wedge forbade Castin from
joining the Hawk-bats on their mission to meet with Zsinj, but Castin disobeyed orders and stowed away with the group. After planting
his code, he discovered Zsinj's genetic experiments in the Iron Fist's deeper sections, but was also caught and brutally beaten by a
group of stormtroopers. He was brought to Zsinj, who ordered General Kargin - alias Garik Loran - to kill him. Kargin hesitated, but
Captain Seku shot Castin dead. This act left Seku, who was really Dia Passik, with a great sense of loss. (IF)
Donnerwin

Dono
this Squib relayed information on the whereabouts of the Imperial transport ship Elusive. Dono was a slave laborer on the Elusive. (SH)
Donos, Myn
a native of Corellia, Myn Donos was one of the first pilots in Wraith Squadron. As a member of the Corellian militia, Donos earned his
Corellian Bloodstripes as a sniper. As a Lieutenant with the New Republic, Donos was given command of Talon Squadron shortly
before being placed in the Wraiths. When Talon Squadron was almost completely lost in an Imperial ambush on Gravan Seven - Donos
being the sole survivor - he was demoted, but came under the attention of Wedge Antilles when he first formed Wraith Squadron. He
was, at one time, awarded Corellian Bloodstripes by the military on Corellia, but he stopped wearing them shortly after the debacle on
Gravan Seven. He also became quite morose, and was very introverted during his early days with the Wraiths. In the battle that saw the
destruction of the Implacable over Ession, Donos got a measure of revenge for Talon Squadron. He discovered Apwar Trigit's TIE
Interceptor fleeing the dying ship, and chased it down. Before Trigit could surrender, Donos launched a pair of proton torpedoes at him.
Trigit's ship was destroyed, and Trigit died in the resulting explosion. Shortly afterward, Donos began to fall in love with Lara Notsil,
unaware that she was actually Gara Petothel, the woman who provided Trigit with the information he needed to eliminate Talon
Squadron. When Garik Loran inadvertently revealed her deception to the Wraiths at Kidriff Five, Donos tried to kill her, but nearly
destroyed Wedge instead. Antilles chose to report the firing of Donos' weapons as "accidental," provided Donos received medical and
psychiatric treatment. With the help of his friends and comrades, Donos came out of his tailspin and rejoined the squadron as they
prepared to attack Zsinj near Kuat. Following the battle with Zsinj at Selaggis Six, Myn accepted a position with Rogue Squadron,
choosing to fly rather remain with the Wraiths who joined New Republic Intelligence. (WS, IF, SOC)

Dool Arena
this reinforced cage was formed in the heart of The Broken Tusk, a bar and restaurant located on Reuss VIII. Dug into the ground and
surrounded by plasteel walls, the Dool Arena was used to stage hand-to-hand combat between various opponents, for the pleasure of
the patrons of the Broken Tusk. All combat in the arena was governed by the Dool Rool, which simply stated “no ranged weapons
allowed in the arena.” Everything else was fair game. It was later discovered that many of the lesser-known combatants who fought in
the Arena were actually Imperial prisoners who refused to break under interrogation. Fights were often staged after-hours, with the
audience being made up of a select group of top Imperial officers and their staffs. In events which became known as Survival Day
fights, the captives were given two options: turn over the information, or defeat Tull Raine in one-on-one combat. (WSV)
Dool Bug

Doom Slayer
this series of assassin droid was designed and manufactured by Sythluss Leethe. The design was based on a standard Sluissi security
droid, and resembled an adult Sluissi when fully extended. At rest, the Doom Slayer rolled itself up into a tight, well-armored sphere.
Leethe protected the droid with a lightweight armor, into which he placed a series of microcircuits, and which was painted with a special
chemical paint. This combination allowed the droid to sense the electromagentic environment around it and alter its coloration to blend
in with its background. When in attack mode, the Doom Slayer unfolds its tail, which housed a modified BlasTech T-21 light repeating
blaster. A trio of MGL-1 microgrenade launchers give the spherical body the appearance of a face. Two manipulator arms could be
extended from the body, to graps objects or victims. Because of the high cost of building the droid, Leethe would only use it to collect
bounties worth 100,000 credits or more, in order to recover his operating costs. It was rumored that he had been contracted to use the
Doom Slayer to kill Jabba the Hutt, and collected his fee before Leia Organa killed the crimelord herself. The spherical body of the
Doom Slayer measured a meter in diameter, and its tail added another meter to its overall length when extended. Leethe sent one of
these droids to Gelgelar to destroy the Alliance’s drop point in Gelgelar Free Port, but the droid was destroyed by Ihvin Jayme and
Maglenna Pendower. (SWJ14)

Dor Gal-ram
this ancient Sith warlord sided with Naga Sadow following the death of Marka Ragnos, although he believed Luda Kressh had the best
interests of the Sith in mind. Working with Horak-mul, he became one of Kressh’s secret agents, and was instrumental in uncovering
Sadow’s treachery in assuming the position of Dark Lord of the Sith. They later led the attack on Sadow’s fortress on Khar Delba, which
was a decoy base. The lack of retaliation made Dor Gal-ram overconfident, and ordered further attacks. It was at this point that several
of Dor Gal-ram’s crewmen - still loyal to Naga Sadow - mutinied and killed Gal-ram. This marked the end of Kressh’s attack on Sadow,
leaving Sadow firmly in command of the Sith Lords. (GAS)

Dorian Quill
an alcoholic beverage aged 12 years or more. (TME)
Doriana, Kinman
this man was one of Senator Palpatine's closest advisors. It was during the time of the Outbound Flight Project that Doriana became
Palpatine's most trusted aides, when he accompanied the task force sent to eliminate the Jedi. Instead of a quick assault, the Imperial
fleet was decimated by the Chiss Expansionary Defense force under the command of Thrawn. Thrawn destroyed all but one of
Doriana's warships before Doriana could plead for an audience. When he did, he managed to convince Thrawn of the dangers of the
Outbound Flight Project. Thrawn's forces wiped out the Jedi, and Doriana returned to Coruscant and described to Palpatine the events
he witnessed. (VOF)
Doreilla's Mystress
this bulk freighter was owned and operated by RenTrans during the Galactic Civil War. (SESB)
Dorin
1) this planet, located in the Expansion Region, was the homeworld of the Kel Dor race. The planet’s atmosphere is very unusual in that
it supports life with just the barest traces of oxygen. This requires that Kel Dor travelling away from Dorin must wear anti-ox masks to
filter out oxygen. (IG1, IWE1)
2) an alien species. (IWE1)
Dorin Venithon
this Ithorian and his twin brother, Denuab, were among the most vicious pirates of the New Order. This made them a great aberration to
the normally placid Ithorian people. Formerly members of such notable groups as the Fivaran Organization, the Bandits of Ggy-ynt, and
the Yarnak Gang, the Venithon Twins joined the Hy’thor Pirates shortly before the Battle of Yavin. The Twins left the Fivaran
Organization after a failed raid on the Alliance Special Forces vessel Hauler VI, and fled to the Hy’thor gang, where they quickly
established themselves as cruel leaders. They were even made special ambassadors to Safonne Pendon’s gang. Where Denuab was
somewhat reasonable, Dorin was belligerent and vicous, with bullying attitude. (AIR)
Dorion Discus
Roark Garnet's ship. (RPG)
Dorja
an elderly Imperial Navy Captain under Grand Admiral Thrawn, he was the commander of the Relentless. He came from a family of
starship commanders from the planet Coruscant, being the seventh in a long line of naval officers. He was granted command of the
Relentless prior to the Battle of Endor, although his cautious style of command has often been questioned by other Captains. He was
with Pellaeon following the Battle of Endor, and although he agreed with the decision to retreat, he did not approve of Pellaeon's
assumption of command. Dorja's lack of initiative at the Battle of Endor meant that he was relegated to a secondary position in Grand
Admiral Thrawn's Navy, and this rankled even more. Dorja stayed on, though, in hopes that he could one day assume command of the
fleet and return the New Order to its rightful position in the galaxy. Dorja survived the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn and the series of
defeats the Empire suffered to the New Republic, and was one of the thirteen Captains who remained in controlof their Star Destroyers
ten years later. He was then called upon by Moff Disra to intercept Admiral Pellaeon at Morishim, but Dorja was not given the specifics
of the mission. At the same briefing, Dorja was stunned to see Thrawn join the discussion. Masterfully portrayed by the con artist Flim,
Thrawn seemed resurrected, and Dorja was completely fooled by the performance. He agreed to go to Morishim and intercept an
Imperial courier, which turned out to be Colonel Vermel’s ship en route to extend a peace treaty to Garm Bel Iblis. (DFR, DFRSB, SOP)

Dorn
1) this is the fourth symbol in the Aurebesh script, and represents the Basic letter "d". (SWM)
2) this young Bothan boy was a contemporary of nine-year-old Anakin Skywalker, and was a slave in Mos Espa just like Anakin. The
two were good friends as well. Dorn was owned by Jabba the Hutt at the time, and the Hutt was training him to be a spy. When Jabba
learned that a group of Ghostling children had been stolen from Gardulla the Hutt, Jabba decided to have Dorn infiltrate Gardulla's
slaves and locate them. If he failed, Jabba would kill him. What Jabba didn't know was that Dorn was one of the children who helped
the Ghostlings escape. Dorn was nearly captured in the escape, but made it safely to Bantha Rock. There, he fled Tatooine with the
Ghostlings and Pala aboard Rakir Banai's ship. (E1A5, E1A8)
Dorna, Kissek
this Alliance starfighter pilot was one of the original Tierfon Yellow Aces, and served with Wes Janson and Jek Porkins. A former
freighter pilot from the planet Alderaan, Kissek went into a panic attack when a routine mission became a dogfight with the Yellow Aces
outnumbered two-to-one. Janson and Porkins were forced to chase him down because of their proximity to Imperial space, fearing that
he might compromise the mission. When Kissek wouldn't listen to reason and turn around, Janson took a shot at him. The laser blast
cracked Kissek's cockpit, venting all atmosphere and killing him. Kissek's widow found out about his death before the Yellow Aces
could talk to her, and she blamed them for his death and for ruining the family name. She changed her name,and that of her children, to
Tainer and moved from their hometown, hoping to rebuild their lives. Kissek's son, Kell, eventually joined the Alliance himself. (WS)

this Cerean elder was in league with Bron, Ephant Mon, and their pro-technology faction which was trying to gain a foothold on the
planet Cerea. He was hoping to make a profit off the eventual sale of swoops and other high-technology items, and made a deal with
the off-worlders to allow for certain items to be imported to help fuel the desire for more. On a tip from the Ortolan Ydde, elder Nar-
Somo-Dali discovered Dorr’s deceit and had him arrested for sedition. During his sentencing, Dorr told the elders that the swoops which
were ridden by Kordren and Skeel were sabotaged. (PTR)

Dorsk 80
Dorsk 81's genetic predecessor, he frowned on his descendant's uniqueness. (DS)
Dorsk 81
81st member of a family which has been cloned from the same batch of genetic material. His cloning was flawed, however, and he
gained the use of The Force. Dorsk is a native of the planet Khomm, and is a thin, smooth-skinned alien; he has no lips, and his skin is
mottled with green and yellow. His nose is flat, and his ears lay flat against his hairless skull. After attaining the rank of Jedi Knight, he
returned to Khomm, only to find his relatives and his race still stagnant and unwilling to accept his success. He and Kyp Durron left the
planet and discovered Admiral Daala's fleet massing in the Core Systems. They fled the Core, racing back to Yavin 4 to warn the Jedi
Academy. In a confrontation between the might of Pellaeon's seventeen Star Destroyers and the Force, Dorsk 81 channeled the
combined strength of more than thirty Jedi and literally pushed the Star Destroyers out of the system. He was physically unable to
withstand the great power of the united Force, and was burned from the inside out by the wave of energy sent against the fleet. (DA,
COTF, DS)
Dorsk 82
a genetic descendant of Dorsk 81, Dorsk 82 was living on Khomm when Dorsk 81 returned there after becoming a full Jedi Knight. He
had been trained to manage the cloning facilities on Khomm. Dorsk 82 showed some aptitude with the Force, and traveled to Luke
Skywalker’s Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4 in hopes of realizing his potential. He was befriended by Kyp Durron, who found Dorks 81’s
lightsaber and presented it to him. Shortly after joining the school, Dorsk 82 was influential in the defeat of the Leviathan of Corbos.

Doruggan, Conn
an Imperial Captain of Alderaanian descent, Doruggan served on the planet Bakura shortly before the Battle of Endor. Prior to attending
the Imperial Academy on Raithal, Doruggan was a star wegsphere player on his homeworld. Doruggan was attending the Imperial
Academy when Grand Moff Tarkin destroyed Alderaan, but Doruggan blamed Princess Leia Organa for the disaster. Doruggan
believed that Leia’s refusal to cooperate resulted in the use of force, and defended the Empire to his friends. After graduation,
Doruggan served under Wilek Nereus on Hakartha Station and on Berea before being reassigned to Bakura with Nereus. Doruggan
was part of the group which arrested Eppie Belden, and when Leia Organa traveled to Bakura shortly after the Battle of Endor, he
considered her a threat. (TB, TBSB)

Double Echo
Arly Bron’s beat-up freighter. (RD)
Double V Formation
this method of employing a group of AT-AT and AT-ST walkers was developed by Arndall Lott. A group of ten salve-rigged AT-STs
forms the first V, and helps clear a path through enemy forces for the second V. This second V is composed of four AT-ATs, which can
get very close to their target if the AT-STs eliminate the lighter opposition. The benefit of this attack pattern is that the forward AT-STs
can move to prevent flanking actions by the enemy with relative ease, or can be dispatched to mop up remaining enemy troops while
the AT-ATs destroy the primary target. (WBC)
Double Viol
this stringed musical instrument is formed from a pair of hollow, resonating boxes that are separated by shaft. This shaft is strung with
tonal cords which are plucked or strummed to produce music. (JASB)

Doublefield Generator
this device is a form of forcefield generator which creates two opposing, spherical fields. The most obvious use of the doublefield came
on the Loronar Field Secured Container Vessel, which employs Prexton doublefields to create spherical containers for cargo. (ISB)
Doubler Suit
this specialized form of personal protection uses a miniaturized, potable, three-dimensional holovideo recorder/projector and a
specialized bodysuit. A being must allow itself to be recorded for an hour, during which time the doubler suit records the movements
and physical dimensions of the being. The recording is then downloaded into a computer which turns the recording into raw data. When
the wearer wants to go into the field in disguise, he or she wears a special bodysuit lined with thousands of microsensors. The raw data
from the recording is fed to these microsensors, and allows the user to create a double of himself through the miniature projector.

a planet which is home to the jackelope. (LCM)
Doulos
one of the three barren moons of Atraken. (PG2)
Doune
this Herglic was known as a notoriously lucky sabacc player during the early years of the New Republic. Doune maintained his base of
operations on the planet Morado. After Doune won nearly everything the young human Nyo had, he entered into another match with the
legendary Kinnin Vo-Shay. Vo-Shay quickly won more than 200,000 credits from Doune, and turned the money over to Nyo so that the
young man could purchase a lightsaber. Doune then beat them to Nar Shaddaa and bought the weapoyo wanted. In a second sabacc
match, Doune managed to win Vo-Shay's amulet, believing that the amulet somehow gave V-Shay an edge. Little did Doune know that
the amulet was simply a gift from a female acquiantance of Kinnin's and had no magic powers whatsoever. (TFNR)
Dous’tine
this sculptor was a native of Loretto. Dous’tine was once commissioned by Prince Xizor to create a bust of the Falleen crimelord. The
statue was confiscated by Dequc and displayed in his Black Nebula headquarters on Qiaxx. Mara Jade hid an remote control device
inside it, along with her ligthsaber, in hopes of entering Dequc’s private chambers in order to execute the crimelord. She claimed that
Xizor had hidden a treasure map inside it, and when Dequc opened it, she activated the remote control. The device ignited the
lightsaber, piercing Dequc’s head and killing him instantly. (MJEH)
Dovecote
this old mansion, located in Koved City on Siluria III, was owned by Kaiya Adrimetrum and her husband. Following his death during the
Imperial occupation of the planet, she used it as the focal point for planning her assault on the Imperial Governor, Quannith. (GG9)
Dovin Basal
this unusual piece of Yuuzhan Vong technology acts on the gravitational properties of a target body. They can be used like repuslors, to
maintain a position above the ground, or in a reverse action to maintain contact with the ground. Individual dovin basals were spherical
in shape, measuring about three meters across. They could lock onto a specific gravity source - even one surrounded by others - and
focus their lock with extreme precision. The more focused the lock, the stronger it became, even across hundreds of thousands of
kilometers. This allowed the Yuuzhan Vong to employ them as perpetual sources of thrust for their yorik coral worldships. Dovin basals
resemble a large, dark red heart with deep blue spikes surrounding its body. Several battles into the invasion, the New Republic's
starfighter pilots realized that the dovin basals also provided coralskippers with unusual shielding. Rogue Squadron discovered that the
stronger a coralskipper's shielding, the less maneuverable the fighter was. They used reverse logic, and forced the skips to maneuver
more in a dogfight, thereby reducing the effectiveness of the dovin basal shielding. (VP, DTR)
Dovlis, Reldo
this Imperial Navy Captain served aboard the Peacekeeper, and was part of the fleet which was sent to take out Nar Shaddaa. Dovlis
was an older, less imaginative officer than Soontir Fel, the other Captain serving under Admiral Greelanx during the Battle of Nar
Shaddaa. Dovlis was the first commander to realize that the smugglers were using illusory ships to discourage the Imperials, but he
quickly discovered that real ships were hidden among the fakes. The Peacekeeper took a large amount of damage to its starboard
engines, and soon found itself without power. Dovlis ordered the engines brought back on-line when the ship began drifting toawrd Nar
Shaddaa. The failsafes were overridden, but the spasmodic thrust the engines provided only pushed the ship closer to the moon. When
they gave out altogther, the Peacekeeper plunged into Nar Shaddaa’s planetary shield. Dovlis died in battle, taking out a section of the
moon’s shield with his own ship. (THG)
Dovos, Shas
this man was native of Onderon, and a dedicated student of metallurgy who stumbled upon an old text of Sith magicks nearly 1,000
after the fall of Sith Empire. Shas had found the book in an ancient Onderonian temple in the wilds near his village, and started reading
it. The book intrigued him, as it dealt with the formation of a heavy, spiked set of jet-black armor. While many considered the armor a
work of art, Shas knew that much of the armor was imbued with Sith alchemy. After ten years, he finished the armor, and event which
unleashed the Sith spirit trapped in the text. The spirit used its own Sith powers to meld Shas's essence to that of the armor, creating a
new creature it named Warb Null. Shas Donos, from that point onward, ceased to exist. (TOJC)
Dowager Queen
the first colony ship to arrive on the planet of Tatooine, it was forced to make a crash-landing when it arrived. The wreckage was left
where it landed, and the city of Mos Eisley grew up around it. Hundreds of years laster, the Queen's remains form a series of homes
and hiding places for the city's homeless. (TME, ISU)
Dowd, Bilman
this man was a member of the same bounty hunters’ guild as Boba Fett. To Fett’s knowledge, Dowd had been a member longer than
even Fett himself. A tall, thin, elderly man, Dowd met Fett on Devaron when the bounty hunter captured Kardue’sai’Malloc. His role as
representative was to collect the guild’s ten-percent handling fee. (TBH)

Dozen-and-Two Avengers
this was the name of Kyp Durron's vigilante group, led by himself and Miko Reglia. They represented the "Two" in the name - the only
two Jedi in the group - while the other members were simply rogue pilots. They were nearly destroyed after discovering the Yuuzhan
Vong presence near Helska. A swarm of coralskippers launched a massive wave of volcano missiles, which took out many of the non-
Jedi Avengers in the opening seconds of their battle. Miko was captured by the Yuuzhan Vong, and Kyp fled to a remote sector and
stranded. In the wake of their destruction, the Dozen-and-Two were reduced Kyp and a few others. Kyp recruited new members, but
simply called the group Kyp's Dozen. (VP, JE)
DPU7

this lift-mine was created by Norsam for the Empire. It had a range of operation from 10 meters to 40 meters, and measured a meter in
diameter. The DR-X55 can move quite fast, and can bring itself within detonation range in a matter of seconds. (CFG)
Dr'aan
this Sullustan was discovered at the abandoned Alliance base by Tash Arranda and her surrogate uncle, the Shi'ido Hoole. Dr'aan
seemed to be an exact double of Dr'uun, and was later revealed to be a clone produced by the Empire by an experimental, rapid-
cloning technique. (GOF11)
Dr'uun Unnh
this Sullustan pilot was a member of the Alliance. When he was not in a starfighter, Dr'uun Unnh was a thorough and meticulous
naturalist. He created a number of in-depth studies of planetary ecologies, and was delighted when the Alliance shifted its base of the
fourth moon of Yavin. He spent a great deal of his ground time exploring the jungles. However, this proved to be his downfall, for he
was out in the jungles when the Alliance began its assault on the first Death Star. He never made it into the battle, but was killed when
Qorl's TIE Fighter crashed on the moon. The crippled fighter slammed into the camp he was occupying. He was buried on Yavin 4.
Dr'uun's body was discovered by the Empire, and a sample taken to Dantooine, where it was cloned in an experimental rapid-cloning
process. (ISU, GOF11)

a planet known for its indigenous hunting beasts, the nashtah. (HSR)
Draagax
this creature was native to the planet Relkass, and was known to be a nasty predator. They were generally omnivorous, feeding on
razorgrass and small rodents, although they preferred to feed on the Relkass sentinel plant. This posed a problem for the inhabitants of
Relkass, as the narcotic in the sentinel plant caused the draagax to go into a predatory frenzy, killing any warm-blooded creature on
sight. The average draagax resembled a tall rodent, standing nearly two meters tall at the shoulder and having long ears and sharp
teeth which could inject a debilitating poison. Their large eyes were adapted to seeing in the visible and infrared spectra. (COG)

lataren trees, and are expressive, emotional creatures capable of wild celebrations and cunning attacks. Their heritage is littered with
territorial conflicts, which continued even after their discovery by the Old Republic. This continued during the reign of Emperor
Palpatine, with some Draedan nations supporting the Imperial presence and others offering assistance to the Alliance. (GG12)
Draenell, Arnoll
this man was in command of the Old Republic scouting expedition which was stranded in the Bissillirus System after their ship's

Droch
this small, repugnant, insect-like creature was first used by the Grissmath Dynasty in an attempt to wipe out the political prisoners on
Nam Chorios. The drochs bite their victims and latch on, much like leeches. Also like leeches, the drochs have the ability to drain the
lifeforce from a creature. If removed quickly, the droch will have only taken a small amount of force, and the victim feels slightly woozy.
If allowed to remain in contact woth the flesh, a droch will burrow into its victim and be assimilated. However, rather than simply
dissolving, the droch somehow entwines itself with its host, becoming an unseen but demanding part of its victim. It can continue to
drain lifeforce, while the host simply dies from the loss of force. In this fashion, the droch is virtually undetectable, and the victim
appears to have died for no reason. The droch which continues to grow strong by taking life energy from various victims can grow to
large sizes, about a half-meter in height. These larger drochs have the ability to control smaller drochs, and can also obtain life energy
from its subservient drochs. For this reason, the natives of Nam Chorios tried to keep the drochs from spreading beyond Nam Chorios,
although a single outbreak did occur. Drochs flourish is dark, shadowy areas, for natural and reflected sunlight tends to drain their
power. It was known as the Death Seed plague, and although it was eventually controlled, it was not known how it was finally defeated.

Drog
this species of large, black beetle is native to the planet S'krrr. The drog travel in swarms, and will eat anything in their path. They will
even scavenge for food, and have few natural enemies. They were known to the insectile S'krrr as one of the main pollinators of the
multitude of plants found on their planet, and are therefore carefully maintained by gardeners. Their only true enemy, besides the S'krrr,
are the shreevs, which consume about thirty drogs each per day. Thus, the S'krrr gardeners work to maintain a balanced population of
shreevs and drogs. Drogs reproduce prolifically, requiring that shreevs be kept around in order to help control the drog population.
Many xenobiologists have claimed the the S'krrr themselves are descended from the drogs, although this has never been scientifically
proven. What is known is that a cult of S'krrr worshipped the drogs with god-like awe. (GOF8)
Droga, Jeng
this Dark Side adept was one of Emperor Palpatine's students, and was the pilot of the Emperor's personal yacht, the Emperor’s

(SWN, SWJ14, FTD)
Droid Tipping
a phrase originally developed by the Gungans, this activity essentially involved knocking over an inactive droid. The phrase was created
at the end of the Battle of Naboo, after Anakin Skywalker had destroyed the Trade Federation’s Droid Control Ship. Without a signal to
give them directions, the battle droids on the surface of Naboo suddenly were deactivated. Several Gungans, including Jar Jar Binks
and Captain Tarpals, realized that the droids were unable to fight back, and began knocking them over. Soon, all the battle droids had
been “tipped” and thrown into scrap piles. (IWE1)

Droma
this Ryn befriended Han Solo on the Jubilee Wheel, albeit to Han's dismay. Han had been working with Roa to seek out Reck Desh,
and Droma and his companions were searching for passage to Rhinnal to look for another group of Ryn, including Droma's sister.
Instead, they were all caught up in the Yuuzhan Vong attack on the station, and Roa was lost. Droma helped Han escape the station,
and they parted ways, only to be reunited aboard the Queen of Empire. Ever in the path of danger, Droma and Han were suddenly in
the midst of a Peace Brigade ambush of the ship, in an effort to recover the Yuuzhan Vong priestess Elan. After Major Showolter was
injured, Han and Droma agreed to transport Elan and Vergere to Coruscant. Droma proved to be something of a nuisance, but Han
found himself liking the unusual humanoid. In many ways, Han felt that he was just allowing Droma to fill the void left by Chewbacca's
death, but Droma nonetheless proved to be an ally. Droma was also responsible for saving Han's life - not once, but twice - during their
flight from Ord Mantell and their transport of the Yuuzhan Vong priestess Elan. It was Droma who recognized that Vergere was a
species from the known galaxy, not a creature the Yuuzhan Vong brought with them. His telling of Han's future with a deck of sabacc
cards also helped Droma realize that Elan was not a defector, but instead part of a plot to kill the Jedi Knights. After Han decided to go
back out to search for Roa, he agreed to help Droma continue the search for his sister. After missing the group of Ryn on Ruan, Droma
was arrested by Salliche Agricultural Corporation for forging transport documents for refugees who had been working on the planet. In
reality, the documents had been forged by Droma’s relative, Gaph. Han was forced to rescue him, with the help of the droid Baffle, and
then later freed several thousand droids who had been inhibited by Salliche Ag. (HT, JE)

the New Republic's struggle to defat Grand Admiral Thrawn. (TFE, DTR)
Dromath, Rade
a native of the planet Garqi, this man was the son of Dynba Tesc and Captain Dromath. He later greeted Corran Horn, when the Jedi
arrived on Garqi during the Yuuzhan Vong occupation of the planet. He had been managing the meager resistance to the Vong
presence, carrying on his mother's legacy of fighting against those who would usurp power. With Corran's appearance on Garqi, along
with that of Jacen Solo, Rade hoped to garner Jedi sanctioning for the vicious work of his resistance team. Corran didn't give it to him
outright, but he allowed Rade to ensure the safety of the general populace from Yuuzhan Vong attacks. After the discovery that the
pollen of the bafforr tree was deadly to the Yuuzhan Vong's vonduun crab armor, Corran had to return to Coruscant. Rade promised to
continue working toward the liberation of Garqi until the New Republic could lend military assistance. (DTR)

who was plotting to eliminate the Governor and take control of his holdings. Droon was also a historian, and was well-versed on the
history of the Old Republic and the rise of the Empire. He captured Jix when the mercenary was sent by Darth Vader to deliver a
message, and panicked when Jix brought up the subject of the Dark Lord. He tried to kill Jix and eliminate Torlock’s human replica
droid by dropping them into a cave inhabited by a dragon snake, but Jix killed it and returned to the surface. As Droon killed the real
Frija in an attempt to implicate her as the leader of their plot, Jix knocked him unconscious and brought him back to Coruscant to face
Vader’s wrath. Jix also brought along some of Droon’s weapons collection, which included several Jedi lightsabers. When Jix explained

astonishing, and was made even greater during the Imperial occupation. Most of its cities are overcrowded, and the few wetlands that
separate them are subject to pollution. The average day on Druckenwell lasts 32 standard hours. The average year lasts 309 local
days. Located along the Corellian Run, Druckenwell was forced to bring its small naval force to full alert, after the Yuuzhan Vong
attacked Kalarba and Hosk Station. However, the small force was no match for the alien invaders, who overran the planet before taking
Falleen. (SWAJ, BP)

furless, the druyza were distinguished by the two curved tusks which jutted down from the upper jaws. Many Socorro nomads
domesticated the druyza and used them as beasts of burden or transportation. (BSS)
Dryanta
this Wookiee, one of Chewbacca’s many cousins, was an accomplished pilot. In the early days of the Imperial occupation of Kashyyyk,

Drysso, Joak
this staunch Imperial supporter served as the Captain of the Virulence in the years leading up to the Battle of Endor. When the Executor
was destroyed at Endor, Drysso took the Virulence and ran, hoping to make it to Imperial space before the Alliance's forces could catch
him. He then served Ysanne Isard, and was eventually promoted to the command of the Lusankya, making way for his executive
officer, Lakwii Vaarscha, to take command of the Virulence. When Isard ordered the destruction of the Rogue Squadron space station
at Yag'Dhul, she sent both Varrscha and Drysso to do the job. However, Drysso was maneuvered by Booster Terrik into a position that
locked the Lusankya in the space station's tractor beams, and Terrik brought all weapons to bear on the Super-class Star Destroyer.
The Virulence interposed itself between the Lusankya and the space station, allowing Drysso the opportunity to escape. He took the
chance offered to him, believing that Varrscha and the Virulence were destroyed. In fact, the ship was captured by Terrik. Drysso
returned to Thyferra, and was defending the world when the Rogues initiated their attack. As the Battle of Thyferra began, the Lusankya
took heavy fire from the recommissioned Star Destroyer Freedom, but managed to disable the smaller ship. Drysso then pummeled the
Rogues' flee of freighters and smaller ships until the Virulence reappeared. Drysso believed that the tide had finally turned his way.
However, the Virulence was under the command of Booster Terrik, and its starfighter bays were full of A-Wings under the command of
Pasj Cracken. Once again, the Lusankya took heavy fire until it was left adrift. Drysso threatened to ram the ship into the planet below,
but he was shot by Lieutenant Waroen before he could execute this plan. Ysanne Isard later revealed that she had ordered Drysso to
flee Thyferra, knowing that he would never leave his post. She sent Drysso to his death so that she would eventually have a chance to
recover the Lusankya, once the New Republic had refitted her. (BW, IR)

by combining a haploid gamete with that from another dragon. No one knows where it is, but the Star Dragons maintain a hidden
graveyard where they go to die. Several scientists have observed the Duinuogwuin expelling super-hot belches of gas that can scorch
plastisteel. (DFR, DFRSB, GG4, GMS)

(TFE)
Durasha, Celia
this woman, known for her striking red hair, was one of the Lieutenants who served the Kuari Princess. Celia grew up the child of a
graduate of the Imperial Academy, and dreamed of attending herself. However, her father, Reise Durasha, never forwarded her
application for entry. He told her that the Academy no place for a woman. He then sent Celia's brothers in their turn, keeping her at
home. She ended up attending Baylagon Technical Institute, and was hired by Galaxy Tours shortly after graduation. She served as the
navigator of the cruise ship Majestic, and single-handedly saved the ship during a pirate attack. This got her noticed by the company,
which promoted her and assigned her as navigator of the Kuari Princess. It was aboard the Princess that she became good friends with
Dap Nechel. Known as Crimson to Detien Kaileel, she was disturbed to learn of his allegiance to the Alliance. When he was arrested on
the Princess, though, she began to understand his loyalties. She also began to question her own stance when Kaileel's captor turned
out to be her childhood love, Adion Lang. She was torn about who to believe when Kaileel revealed the truth about the Empire's
involvement in the destruction of Alderaan. She sided with Kaileel, and nearly succeeded in helping him escape. However, they were
intercepted by Lang, who shot Kaileel and killed him before he could escape. Celia took the shuttle and fled into the Maelstrom. Years
later, she met up with Kaj Nedmak on Oasis after stowing away on his ship, and the two decided to go into the shipping business
together. Celia liked his roguish actions, but feared his debts would catch up to him. It was for this reason that she reluctantly went
along with his plan to use weapons they were transporting for Bwahl the Hutt to pay of a gambling debt to Rass M’Guy. Her fears
proved correct, and they were forced to crashland on Ord Mantell. Celia feared Kaj was dead, and discovered Thune’s hideout in the
wilderness. Celia was duped by Thune into believing that Treytis Prash was the bounty hunter who captured Kaj, when in reality it was
Thune herself. In a harrowing escape, Kaj and Celia enlisted the help of Prash and Thune’s droid, U-Thr. Celia and Kaj returned to
smuggling, this time with U-THR’s help. (TFE, SWJ8, SWJ14)

growing group of Duro who protested the fact that the New Republic placed refugees on the surface of Duro in return for their labor in
restoring the planet's natural environment. His sister, Ducilla, was a vehement opponent of the New Republic, and spent most of her
time speaking out against the Republic's lack of defense against the Yuuzhan Vong. He even told Luke Skywalker that he would rather
have Emperor Palpatine running the galaxy, since the Imperial war machine would probably have been better able to repel the alien
invaders. He did nothing to support SELCORE's activities, and was one of the first beings approached by the Peace Brigade in an effort
to short-circuit the work of the New Republic in favor of the Yuuzhan Vong. He agreed to provide the Yuuzhan Vong with the refugees
transplanted to Duro as payment for the promise that Duro would be left unharmed if the Yuuzhan Vong used it as a base from which to
strike at the Core Worlds. However, outside forces rallied to save Duro, and Durgard Brarun was captured by the Yuuzhan Vong and
brought before Tsavong Lah. Durgard tried to plead his innocence in the resistance, but the Warmaster would have nothing of it.
Durgard Brarun and a number of other CorDuro officials were eventually fed to the creature known as Tu-Scart. (BP)

circles as a top-notch navigator, and had automated much of his starship's systems with the help of his droid, R2-C9. (IA)
Duro
1) this planet, located in the Corellian Sector, is the homeworld of the Duro race. Han Solo's grandfather, Dalla Suul, was born on
Duros. The Duro race had established a vast starship construction industry, nearly equal to that of Corellia. The government of the
system is made up of a consortium of starship construction corporations, with all necessary political decisions being made by the
corporations' stockhoders. Thus, any Duro which owns stock in these companies can participate in the governing of the system. The
planet Duros itself is uninhabited, since the Duros have covered it with automated farms. The former population, and all visitors, live in
twenty orbiting cities that provide easy access to the starship construction facilities. Note that Mission to Mount Yoda claims the planet
was later used by the Empire as a dumping ground, and became so toxic that the Duro who lived there were forced to move into
orbiting space stations. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, the Duros High House agreed to place domed cities on the
surface of Duro, in order to house the refugees fleeing the aliens. In return, the Senate Select Committee for Refugees agreed to
employ the refugees in activities which would restore the planet’s natural environment. Despite the underhanded efforts of CorDuro
Shipping and SELCORE, the scientists and refugees began to eliminate the toxins and restore the planet’s ecosystem. Despite the
assurances of SELCORE and CorDuro Shipping, the Yuuzhan Vong ultimately attacked Duro, hoping to destroy the orbital cities and
captured thousands of refugees and Duros as sacrifices. In the batlle, all of the cities were destroyed, with the exception of Urrdorf City.

2) a humanoid race characterized by their blue skin, red eyes and long, thin faces. There is no nose on their face. They are a calm,
peaceful race (although the Star Wars Screen Entertainment software claims that they are reckless innature) and are considered
dependable workers and gifted storytellers. Most Duros are interested in space travel, and are employed in one of the many industries
that deal in travel between the stars. Those Duros who remain near their homeworld work for one of the many starship construction
facilities that orbit the planet Duro. Many of the Duros found off-planet are graduates of the Duro Academy of Deep Space Exploration,
and can navigate a hyperspace jump with limited star charting. During the Galactic Civil War, the Duros were ostensibly loyal to the
Empire, although the Empire established observation centers at many starship yards to keep an eye on them. During the Yuuzhan
Vong invasion of the galaxy, many Duros felt that the New Republic was too lax in its defense against the alien invaders, and several
Duros claimed that the galaxy would have been better prepared to defend itself if Emperor Palpatine had still been in power. (SW,

Durron, Kyp
a native of Deyer, Kyp was taken prisoner by the Empire when his parents were arrested for speaking out against the destruction of
Alderaan. Kyp was shipped off to Kessel, and forced to work the spice mines. When Han Solo and Chewbacca are shot down over
Kessel and also forced to work the mines, Kyp becomes friends with Han, and together they escape the mines, only to discover the
Maw Installation. Upon returning to Coruscant, Kyp is asked by Luke Skywalker to join his new Jedi Academy, for Kyp shows a great
deal of Force sensitivity. Kyp agrees, and begins training on Yavin 4. Following Gantoris' death, Exar Kun's spirit then takes control of
Kyp's will. Kun shows Kyp the power of the Dark Side, but Kyp's basic nature twists the knowledge. He believes that, even though the
power stems from the Dark Side, it can still be used against the Empire. Kun's spirit does nothing to alter this perception, and assists
Kyp in retrieving the Sun Crusher from Yavin's gas core and allows Kyp to draw on his power as Kyp begins destroying Imperial worlds.
It is when Kyp destroys the Caridan system that Han finally catches up with Kyp, and convinces the young man to return to Yavin 4.
Luke then worked with Kyp to return him to the true nature of the Force. As his powers grew, Kyp became a respected member of the
Jedi Knights. He befriended Dorsk 82 when the young alien traveled to Yavin 4 for training, and the pair were dispatched to Corbos
when the miners there unearthed an ancient creature. Kyp managed to defeat a small Leviathan, but the creature’s death awakened an
even larger one. The combined efforts of Kyp, Dorsk 82, Kirana Ti, and Streen managed to defeat it. He soon became one of
Skywalker's new Jedi Masters, but began to question Skywalker's training methods and philosophy. Kyp believed the Jedi were above
the common being, and could roam the galaxy and dispense justice as they saw fit. He continued this philosophy with his first student,
Miko Reglia, when the formed the Dozen-and-Two Avengers. However, the Avengers were unprepared for the onslaught of the
Yuuzhan Vong, and the small squadron was nearly destroyed at Helska. Only Kyp remained, and he vowed to exact a suitable
retribution on the alien invaders. In this endeavor, Kyp found himself again at odds with Master Skywalker, who refused to condone
Kyp’s vigilante plans. Kyp set out again on his own, forming Kyp’s Dozen. They tried to rescue Wurth Skidder from the Yuuzhan Vong
clustership Creche’, but arrived too later to save him. Kyp destroyed the immature yammosk which was controlling the ship, leaving it
for dead in orbit around Fondor. (JS, DA, COTF, JAL, VP, JE)

agents with equal passion. His primary base of operations was never in the same place twice, providing him added protection from
Cluster criminals and Imperial forces. Steady customers discovered his new locations through a complex network of informants. His
arms dealings were often undermined by his youngest sister, Dutana Leara. (SWJ9)
Dutana Leara
this Arcona was the youngest sister of Dutan Lee. She was addicted to salt, and tended to talk too freely while under the influence. All

this small, reddish-brown beetle was developed by the Yuuzhan Vong as an environmental weapon. The Yuuzhan Vong used swarms
of dweebits to destroy the ExGal-4 outpost on Belkadan, providing cover for their landing on Helska and their invasion of the known
galaxy. Groups of dweebits lived in the root systems of the plants of Belkadan, exuding a chemical mix of excrement into the soil. As
the plants received nourishment from the soil, they "exhaled" a noxious mix of gases into the atmosphere.Since the dweebits were
prolific breeders, they eventually established huge underground populations. As they multiplied, they affected virtually every form of
plant life on the planet, fouling the air of Belkadan at an ever-increasing rate. The noxious atmosphere eventually began generating
intense storms and rendering the planet a toxic wasteland. (VP)

Dxun Beast
a huge, winged reptile native to the Dxun moon of Onderon. They have flat, wedge-shaped heads with 10 horns, two short arms, a
huge wingspan, and long tails. They are extremely territorial, and will violently defend their lands. The Jedi Master Arca hoped to use
them to protect the Sith knowledge obtained from Freedon Nadd by placing all Sith artifacts on the Dxun Moon. Exar Kun was able to
use the Dark Side of The Force to strike the Dxun down and gain entry to the storehouse. (DLS)
Dxun Devourers
Another winged denizen of the Dxun moon, these flying creatures are somewhat smaller than Dxun Beasts, but doubly vicious. They
also have two arms, but they lack the horns that the Beasts have. Instead, they have a long, jutting lower jaw, which is pointed. This
lower jaw is used as a attack weapon. (DLS)
Dxun
one of four natural satellites of the planet Onderon, Dxun was the closest to the planet, and the home of the Dxun Devourers and Dxun
Beasts. In a precise balance of nature, the Dxun moon orbits extremely close to Onderon on a regular basis. Its orbit is so close that the
atmospheres of both bodies begin to mix, allowing the vicious beasts to migrate from the moon to the planet. For this reason, it was
known to the Onderonian natives as the "demon moon." At the order of the ancient Jedi Master, Arca, a tomb for Freedon Nadd and his
Sith artifacts was built on the Dxun moon of Mandalorian iron. (DLS, TSW)

Dymurra, Gnifmak
this Loronar Corporation executive was in control of the manufacturing operations in the Meridian and Antemeridian Sectors, in the
years after the Battle of Endor. His primary function was as CEO for the Core systems. It was Dymurra who was contacted by
Beldorion, who offered the executive wealth and prestige if he assisted in Dzym’s plans to control the galaxy. Dymurra agreed, and
provided several synthdroids as well as arms to Dzym’s forces. These forces, aligned with Seti Ashgad, attempted to gain control of
Nam Chorios and launch the drochs into space, but their plans were foiled by Leia Organa-Solo and Luke Skywalker. Leia obtained
memos and correspondances which implicated Dymurra in the plot, which were corroborated by the information discovered by Yarbolk
Yemm. The executive was imprisoned for his part in the affair. (POT)

this alias was used by Hiram Drayson when he met Joto Eckels on Coruscant. Eckels was returning with the remains of the Qella
recovered by Kroddok Stopa and Josala Krenn, and Dyson was the collector to whom they were delivered. It was Dyson who had
picked up the funding for Eckels’ mission to Brath Qella, after both the New Republic and the Obroan Institute withdrew support.
Drayson delivered them to Joi Eicroth for analysis, under the auspices of Alpha Blue. (TT)
Dystra, Myleena
this woman was a native of Coruscant, and was a member of a wealthy and influential family. She could attend the best schools, and
lived in a grand estate, until her parents were arrested for being suspected Alliance agents. Most of the others were released, but
Myleena never saw her parents again. An orphan, she was sent to a COMPNOR readjustment camp and forced to learn about the New
Order. Little did she know that her parents were truly Alliance agents. She discovered this when an Alliance SpecOps teams liberated
her from the camp and took her to a safeworld, where Alliance doctors reversed much of the Imperial brainwashing she had endured.
She devoted the rest of her life to working toward the ideals of her parents, and eventually became an agent in the New Republic's
Security Force. (HR)
Dyyz Nataz
a former police officer in his home system, Nataz was a tough cop who was sent out to deal with violent sociopaths. He became a
Sector Ranger, and ran into Spurch Goa soon after. They worked together on a case involving a counterfeit credit ring, only to discover
that Jabba the Hutt had set it all up to remove the Rangers. Gank Killers ambushed them and killed their other partner, Thaffe, before
Nataz and Goa went berserk and killed the Ganks. The two then sent the Ganks' ship on a collision course with Jabba's palace
asteroid, causing innumerable damage but missing Jabba in the attempt. This stunt earned Nataz the nickname "Megadeath." They
were expelled from the Rangers and hit out on Nar Shaddaa, laying low to avoid Jabba and doing jobs on the side. Dyyz's race was not
known, for he wore a full-body suit of ancient Ithullan armor and a rusty, skull-shaped helmet. (DE1, DESB)
DZ-9
this model of shield generator was a low-power unit, providing the barest of protection for small ships. (TT)
Dzass IV
a planet. (WSV)
Dzym
this droch, a native of the planet Nam Chorios, was nothing more than an unremarkable member of his species before Zubindi Ebsuk
tried to artificially grow drochs larger in order to please Beldorian the Hutt. The droch race already had some latent sentience, and
Zubindi’s chemical and genetic manipulations brought out a high level of intelligence in Dzym. For 250 years, Dzym grew strong and
powerful, initially using physical contact to drain the lifeforce out of people before learning how to use other drochs to do the work for
him. Realizing that he couldn’t storm the galaxy without a fight, Dzym attempted to enslave members of the Chorian population in order
to meet his needs. Beldorian the Hutt was his first choice, but the Hutt proved to be too weak. When Seti Ashgad was imprisoned on
Nam Chorios, Dzym quickly stepped in and took control. Using the Force in a crude fashion, Dzym fashioned himself a human
appearance and posed as Ashgad’s secretary. Dzym used the human to incite the more recent inhabitants of Nam Chorios to revolt
against the Oldtimers, especially the Therans, and eventually was able to make contact outside the system. Using Ashgad as his
mouthpiece, Dzym forged an alliance with Loronar Corporation, providing Spook crystals in return for weapons and political backing.
The true goal was for Dzym to get off-planet and spread the Death Seed. As Loronar began developing CCIR technology, Dzym
continued to wield his influence. When Ashgad seemed to be beyond his years, Dzym began providing his with added lifeforce, and
they devised a story that Seti Ashgad had a son to explain the human’s rejuvenated appearance. The droch then realized, with the fall
of the Empire and the rise of Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa-Solo, that his time had come. He used Ashgad to lure Leia to Nam
Chorios, where he hoped to detain her long enough for the New Republic’s Provisional Council to squabble about her successor. In the
meantime, Loronar began producign Needles and synthdroids, and provided Dzym with enough firepower to engage the Republic fleet.
Using his subservient drochs, Dzym infected the New Republic’s fleet by tarnsporting them on Ashgad’s body, while creating panic and
rebellion on worlds throughout the Meridian Sector. The droch’s plan would have worked except for Leia’s escape from captivity and the
presence of Luke Skywlaker on Nam Chorios. Together, the discovered Dzym’s plots and exposed them to the natives of the planet.
Dzym and Ashgad tried to flee the planet and start their war on their own, but they were destroyed when Luke managed to
communicate with the Spook crystals in the Needles. They turned on Dzym’s ship and destroyed it. (POT)

this Alliance scouting and reconnaissance team was led by Mils Gessak, and searched for forward outposts during the Galactic Civil
War. (HAS)
D9 Runner
this was a series of light freighters produced by Kuat Drove Yards. The D9 Runner measured 23 meters in length, and coudl transport
up to 4 passengers and 75 metric tons of cargo. The D9 Runner was one of KDY's first freighter designs produced during the New
Order, and found great acceptance for its low price and reliability. It was eventually replaced by the D11 model, which was faster and
better-armed. (SSR)

work together, making friends and becoming inseparable. (DRO)
2) a series of protocol droids. (BTS)
E-Wing
this starfighter, which employs the R7 astromech droid, was the first starfighter to be fully designed and built under the auspices of the
New Republic, and was created by FreiTek Incorporated. The ship, while visually like the X-Wing, has a pair of stable wings. It dishes
out punishment and can take it equally well. It uses the R7 droid to take advantage of a redesigned hyperdrive system. The weapons
systems leave something to be desired, being based on a synthetic Tibanna gas that isn't as good as the real thing. The New Republic
employed two models of the E-Wing. The basic A-Model is 11.2 meters in length, and is armed with three heavy blaster cannons and a
proton torpedo launcher. The B-Model is nearly identical to the A-model, except that Mon Calamarian techs have tripled the power input
to the weapons systems. This makes them extremely powerful, but if the couplings fail and the weapons overheat, they can be
extremely dangerous. (DE1, DESB, EGV)
E-Web Blaster
MerrSonn's EWHB-10 heavy repeating blaster. BlasTech also produced a version of this weapon. (ISB, RPG, TLC)

E-2
the designation of an ancient series of asteroid mining ships designed by Byblos Drive Yards. The E-2 miner is an insectoid ship that
looks small. However, the E-2 is actually 110 meters in length. Instead of using tractor beams to move asteroids, the E-2 is equipped
with eight rugged claws which can dig into stone and grasp an asteroid beneath the main body of the miner. Each E-2 is also equipped
with plasma drills to cut away useless rock to reveal the ore within. A crew of 14 manned the ship, with four gunners handling the
plasma drills. The removed stone is sucked up into a central vacuum system that deposits the material in a sorting area. Valuable ores
are sent into storage bays, while other material is sent to a processing plant to be turned into fuel. Each E-2 miner has a command
crew of four, a bridge crew of ten, and over 100 miners. Finhead Stonebone was one of the first to recognize the potential of E-2 miners
in his pirating operation in the Stenness Systems some 4,000 years before the Galactic Civil War. He modified his E-2s to attack the
ore haulers made from Ithullian Colossus Wasp carapaces. (TOJ, EGV, TOJC)
E-3PO
this chrome-plated protocol droid was part of the Imperial garrison which was stationed on Cloud City. E-3PO’s assigned role was that

Ebareebaveebeedee
this Squib reclamation ship Commander was known as the “Illustrious Chieftain of the Junkyards.” He had ruled the Squibs as king for
more than 40 years before the Battle of Yavin. He was responsible for the placement of Squib spies on capital ships, creating a network
of informants who could inform the Squibs of the location of Imperial garbage dumps and battle sites. This allowed the Squib race to
flourish during the later years of the New Order. He commanded the momship Thrifty, and negotiated with the Alliance for information
on the whereabouts of a gravity-well projector that could be used to detain the Elusive. (SH)
Ebe Endocott
this Triffian was recognized as one of the best podracers of the Outer Rim. He had three semi-pro victories on the Malastare racing

this planet is the homeworld of the Ebranite race. It is the second planet in the Dousc System, and is covered by seemingly endless,
rugged mountains. The crust of the planet is riddled with caves and canyons. (GG12)
Ebranite
this humanoid race has evolved in the harsh canyons of the planet Ebra. The Ebranites have six, multi-jointed arms that allow them to
climb the rocky canyon walls. Each arm ends in four long fingers and two opposing thumbs, which provide sure grips in almost any
situation. Their two legs are short and heavy, having evloved in support of their large upper bodies. Thus, Ebranites have difficulty
walking upright and prefer climbing over walking. They are fiercely loyal to their families and their clans, and early Ebranite civilization
was marked by clan wars. The clans have since become interconnected, and the advancement of their race has been remarkable.
There are clans that have remained at war with each other, much to the dismay of the leadership council. The Ebranite race's ancient
wars were violent, for the Ebranite physiology pumps huge amounts of adrenaline when they are under stress. They are calm peaceful
under most circumstances, but can be whipped into a combat rage in almost no time. They have a primitive technology, and were
subjugated by the Empire and put to work in the lu-ramin mines. Many fled their homeworld ot join the Alliance. (GG12)
Ebrihim
the elderly male Drall hired by Princess Leia to tutor her children during the Corellian Trade Summit, Ebrihim is a rotund Drall with
fierce, jet-black eyes. He doesn't take the Force seriously, although he does believe in it. He has a wide range of knowledge about the

sharp-bladed knives. (CE)
Echnos
this is the formal name of the fourth of six moons orbitting the gas giant Tinn VI. Thus, it is often referred to as Tinn VI-D. It was
discovered by a group of Old Republic explorers who had to make an emergency landing. The strong magnetic pull of Tinn VI forced
them to re-emerge from hyperspace to realspace, an event which continues to happen from time to time. Thus, many hyperspace
routes give the planet and its moons a wide berth, but Echnos managed to grow into an important trace center in its sector. The
inhabitants of Echnos have built a huge, 2000-story city-dome under which they exist. The dome seals in atmosphere and maintains
eight airlocks for entry and egress of starships. (SWAJ)

Eclipse
the first Eclipse-class Star Destroyer, the Eclipse was used as the flagship for the reborn Emperor Palpatine. It was destroyed when the
Force storm Palpatine sent to destroy Luke Skywalker turned on Palaptine himself. The storm consumed Palpatine and eradicated the
Eclipse. (DE1)
Eclipse II
this Eclipse-class Star Destroyer was built by the second reincarnation of Emperor Palpatine, following the loss of his first ship, the
Eclipse. Palpatine took the Eclipse II to Onderon, in an attempt to obtain the body of Anakin Solo for clones. A New Republic assault
team, led by Chewbacca and Kam Solusar, infiltrated the ship and reprogrammed its navigation systems. They fled the ship as it
jumped into hyperspace, bound for Byss. When it emerged from hyperspace, the Eclipse II crashed into the new Galaxy Gun, which
began to fires its projectiles in its death throes. One projectile was launched successfully, and it ploughed into the planet Byss,
destroying it and all of the Imperial ships in orbit around it, including the Eclipse II. The New Republic assault team barely escaped.

Edalm, Darryn
this Imperial researcher mistakenly rediscovered the original surveys of the planet Karra, and believed that an undiscovered varmigio
lode was still hidden within the planet's crust. He failed to read the follow-on reports from the Mineral Assets Partnership, which showed
the planet had no such reserves of varmigio. However, Edalm’s research and presenation convinced his superiors of the mineral wealth
of Karra, and Edalm was promoted to Governor of the planet. When it was discovered that the planet had no natural resources to
provide, the Empire denounced Edalm and withdrew its support of the Karra mines. He was ordered to relinquish control of the planet,
and feared that he would be executed. A shuttle was dispatched to collect him, but it crashed before leaving Karra’ atmosphere. Edalm
surrendered himself to Doctor Elth Nardah, hoping to avoid execution. After Nardah’s death, Edalm was imprisoned on Shimmer.
(SWJ1)
Edan
this Imperial Moff was one of the few which maintained control of his holdings during the New Republic. He was present at the
conference on Bastion, some ten years after the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn, at which Admiral Pellaeon discussed the possibility of

Edjian-Prince
this is regarded as the most difficult role to play in the Corellian tragedy Uhl Eharl Khoehng. The actor who plays is perfectly is assured
of greatness. Adalric Brandl was given the part at the age of thirty, and hoped that his son, Jaalib, would eventually grow into the role.
The Edjian-Prince was the determined son of a king who dies, leaving his small forest kingdom to the Prince. The Prince was not
satisfied with the small holdings he inherited, and began to send woodsmen into the forest to chop down trees and make room for
growth. However, the forest was ruled by the Eharl Khoehng, who tricked the Prince into sending all his subjects into the forest. The
Edjian-Prince, consumed with the need to cut down the forest, sends every last citizen into the woods, until he is alone and frightened
by the Eharl Khoehng. The Trickster King sends dreams of peace and safe passage to the Prince in dreams, and the Prince feels that
he has one last chance to gain the forest. However, the Eharl Khoehng tricks him, trapping him in the forest for ten years before finally
appearing. The Edjian-Prince learns that his subjects have been turned into the trees of the forest, and the only way to restore them is
to acknowledge the Eharl Khoehng as king. The Edjian-Prince goes mad and refuses, then burns the forest to the gorund. He then
submits himself to the Eharl Khoehng and mutters, “Long ... live ... the king.” (SWJ8)

Ee
a race of small worm-like creatures native to the moon Trilos, some Ee exist on the planet Atraken. The Ee grow no longer than six
centimeters, and have a grayish color that darkens near their heads. Their bodies are covered with all manner of sensory nerve
endings, allowing them to detect changes around them. The Ee consume minerals and fungus on Trilos, burrowing through the rock to
reach various veins of minerals. The Ee digestive process them converts the raw minerals into highly-refined ores, which are excreted.
The Ee are intelligent, and determined that they can produce certain forms of ore based on which raw materials they ingest. The Ee
also have tremendous egos, bolstered by the fact that they have certain Force-like mental powers. These powers include telepathy,
telekinesis, changing temperature, and memory alteration. The Ee society has five distinct segments:
Purifiers, which are adept at producing various alloys
Weavers, which take processed materials and form them into machines
Thinkers, who have a knack for theories and principles
Mindbenders, which have strong mental talents
Bulwarks, which are the protectors of Ee society.
Note that Ee technology is highly-advanced, but it is all of a scale that can be used by the Ee. (PG2)

this young woman was a native of Coruscant. Born after the Battle of Endor, her Force sensitivity was never abused by Palpatine's
ambitions. She later attended Luke Skywalker's Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4. She was highly-attuned to the Force, despite the fact that
neither of her parents were Force-sensitive. (TNR)
Eeronon
this was the ancient and strict religion practiced by the Aramandi race. It documented the four castes of Aramandi society, and
explained how leaders were to be elected. The Eeronon also held the following commandment for each and every Aramandi akia: all
clans must work for the day when they can leave Aram and settled their own star systems. At the time of the Galactic Civil War, only the
Orma akia had successfully done this. (AE)

Ehjenla
ths small planet, located near the center of the Kathol Outback, began emerging from an ice age during the last centuries of the Old
Republic. Much of the planet remained locked under polar ice caps after the Battle of Endor. Ehjenla is the homeworld of the Tuhgri
race. (KO)
Ei'shuun Aa Effect
this hyperspacial effect occurs whenever a star's gravitational curves are not uniform, as in the case of a trans-dimensional energy
streamer. Parts of the star seem to emit their own hyperspace shadow, which is then dragged back into the main gravity well of the star.
All the while, realspace particles are unaffected. This paradox causes immense distrubances within a localized area of hyperspace,
where the "walls" between realspace and hyperspace are stretched extremely thin. (SSR)
Eiattu 6
this jungle planet was the home of Plourr Ilo. It was controlled by Moff Tavira and, later, is young wife Leonia, shortly after the Battle of
Endor. The planet liberated of Imperial control when Plourr returned to claim the throne she gave up years before. (XWWP, XWRR)

Eicroth, Joi
this scientist worked for the New Republic’s Alpha Blue team. She was romantically involved with Hiram Drayson, a relationship they
kept secret for more than thirteen years because of their working duties. It was Joi Eicroth who performed the first autopsies and
investigative analysis of the Qella bodies recovered from Maltha Obex by Joto Eckels. She discovered the existence of the Eicroth
bodies, which were named for her. Eicroth eventually married Drayson, but their marriage was a short one. Eicroth remained a valued
member of the Alpha Blue team, and was part of the task force created to determine the origins of the Yuuzhan Vong. Unfortunately for
the New Republic and Doctor Eicroth, a living Yuuzhan Vong body was hard to locate. Whenever individuals were captured in battle,
they ultimately committed suicide rather than become subjects of study. (TT, HT, BP)
Eicroth Body
this biological formation, identified by Joi Eicroth, is a small, capsule-like body encased in solid protein. These bodies contain the three
unique genetic cell structures characteristic of the Qella, as well as the various combinations of the 62 chromosomes that define the
Qella. The contents of each and every Eicroth body is virtually solid genetic material, and five percent of the Qella body is made up of
these bodies. It was believed that each Eicroth Body contained the complete genetic blueprints of the Qella race, including its history
and consicousness. The smallest bodies were no larger than a grain of sand, while others were the size of plates. Unlike the normal
genetic code - which has four letters, two-letter words, and three-word sentences - Eicroth bodies have genetic material with six unique
letters grouped in six-word sentences. The formation of the Eicroth body is duplicated on three distinct scales. There are somatic cells
which make up the Qella flesh, lesser Eicroth bodies which make up the basic genetic material, and greater Eicroth bodies which
contain instructions for creating starship-sized eggs (such as the Teljkon vagabond) for transporting unborn Qella. (TT)
Eidolon
this prototype Strike-class cruiser was built in secret by Kuat Drive Yards for the Empire during the Galactic Civil War. It was designed
to carry squadrons of TIE Fighters into battle. The Eidolon was lost on its maiden voyage, although it was later learned that the ship had
been blind-jumped into hyperspace because it was barely spaceworthy. All this backstory allowed Sate Pestage to use the ship as a
hiding place for a storehouse of weapons and armaments, to be used in case Emperor Palpatine' rule of the galaxy was ever
destroyed. The ship ended up buried on Tatooine, with its weapons cache still intact. Its whereabouts were known only to Sate
Pestage, who kept the location a secret until Lirin Banolt stole a data disk containing the plans to the ship and its location. Its location
was also known to Marl Semtin, who discovered that it served his purposes as a remote base. The Imperials lost the ship when Rogue
Squadron managed to secure it before Huff Darklighter or Firith Olan could secret away the weapons. (XWBT)
Eidolon Base
this is the name used by Marl Semtin to indicate the location of the Eidolon and its weapons cache on Tatooine. It was discovered by
Rogue Squadron and recovered from Imperial control. (XWBT)

hoped that an independent though controlled corporation would be able to maintain production from the rebellious local labor force.
(TFNR)
Eirrauc
this alien race was distinguished by its six limbs and long, four eyed face. Native to the planet Eirrauus, the Eirraucs move cross the
plains of their homeworld via a “leaping run,” employing the hind and middle pairs of legs to move about. The middle pair of limbs could
also be used as arms, to assist the front arms in manipulation. The Eirrauc were omnivorous, feeding on grasses and fruits as well as
carrion. They gathered food with their tongues. A peaceful people, the Eirrauc were unprepared to defend themselves against the
Empire, and were swiftly subjugated and enslaved. (SWG)
Eirrauus
this grassy, temperate planet was the homeworld of the Eirrauc race. (SWG)
Eirtae’
this young Naboo woman served as one of Queen Amidala’s loyal handmaidens. Eirtae’ was born to wealthy parents in a remote, river
valley town, and was no stranger to the life of luxury led by Queen Amidala. In fact, Eirtae' knew a great deal about court protocols, and
often instructed the other handmaidens - as well as Queen Amidala herself - on the ways of the palace. Like the other handmaidens,
Eirtae' was chosen by Captain Panaka for her strength, loyalty, and resemblance to Amidala. Eirtae was portrayed by Friday Wilson in
Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. (SW1, JQA, IG1, VD1)

Ejagga Pakkpekatt
this Hortek Colonel served the New Republic as part of the Intelligence agency. He was placed in command of Glorious and was sent
to intercept the Teljkon vagabond about twelve years after the Battle of Endor. He was constantly at odds with Lando Calrissian, but
often recognized the worth of Lando's opinion. He did not approve of Lando's bold move to gain entrance to the vagabond, and was
even less happy with the escape of the vagabond near Gmir Askilon. The flight of the vagabond rendered the Kuari a derelict, caused
numerous deaths and injuries, and left him without a clue as to the whereabouts of the ship. Calrissian, Lobot, R2-D2, and C-3PO were
also aboard the vagabond when it fled. This combination of events led the New Republic to recall the majority of Pakkpekatt's fleet,
although he was given a few ships to chase the vagabond and rescue Calrissian. He eventually took control of the Lady Luck and was
brought to the vagabond when C-3PO activated its slave circuit. The ships jumped around from the Prakith System to the planet Brath
Qella, where the true purpose of the vagabond was revealed. (BTS, SOL, TT)

Ekhrikhor
a Noghri of the clan Bakh'tor, Ekhrikhor was the leader of the group that followed the Millennium Falcon to Wayland, after it was
discovered that Grand Admiral Thrawn was using the facility to make clones. After the New Republic liberated Wayland from Imperial
control, Ekhrikhor tried to destroy the multitude of artifacts found inside Mount Tantiss, claiming that everything within was part of the
memory of Palpatine and should be eradicated. Garv Debble protested, and Leia Organa Solo eventually had to step in and allow
Debble the opportunity to complete his work. Ekhrikhor abided by Leia's decision, even if he didn't agree with it. (TLC)

Eklaad live in tribes that exist in a stone-age level of technology. The elders of the Eklaad tribes met one a year in an annual Council of
Chieftains, but the invasion of the Empire put a stop to that. As a race, Eklaad were timid and non-aggressive, and rolled themselves
into armored balls when confronted with a dangerous situation. They were herbivorous. (SWAJ, AE)
Eksoan
manufacturers of heavy weapon power sources. (ISB)
EKX-10
a BlasTech blaster rifle. (GG9)
EL-434
this assassin droid developed a reputation as a nasty killer that enjoyed its work, although little was known about its origins. This droid
was designed around a moto-ball base that supported a clam-shell cranium and long, articulated arms. Its critical systems were well-
armored, and it kept itself in peak condition. EL-434 found its way into the employ of the Empire, which used it to eliminate Alliance
bases and destroy Alliance personnel. EL-434 was captured by the Alliance on one such mission, after they were alerted to EL-434's
arrival. The droid overrode its self-destruct programming, reasoning that it could better assist the Empire by gathering information on
Alliance safe-worlds. EL-434 was on the transport ship Celestial when it was commandeered by Bane Nothos and Grand Moff Ravik,
and EL-434 suddenly found itself in Otherspace, imprisoned on the Desolate. The Charon bioscientists wanted to disassemble EL-434,
in an effort to understand how a non-organic construct could override its programming and increase its own abilities. EL-434 escaped
during the Alliance’s attempts to escape from the Desolate, although the droid was unable to escape the Charon ship when the Alliance
did. (OS)

Elan
1) this Galacian woman was a member of the hill clans, and remained outside the control of the city of Galu. However, she rose to
become her clan's leader, and was considered to be a candidate to succeed Queen Veda despite her lack of concern for Galacian
politics. Queen Veda revealed to Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi that Elan was actually the daughter of her husband, King Cana,
who had defied the Galacian political ministers and married a woman of the hill clans. When she remained outside the democratic
elections Veda proposed, both Deca Brun and Wila Prammi courted her support. Elan refused to acknowledge any of the candidates,
keeping the hill people separate from the inhabitants of Galu. She was distinguished from other Galacians by her darker eyes and skin
tone, closer to the nighttime colors than to the brightness of the moonlight. Elan was known as a healer among her people, and helped
Qui-Gon Jinn recover from wounds he suffered while fighting off bandits in the hills. She told him that her father, Rowi, had been a
noted healer among the hill people, and that her mother, Tema, had never traveled to Galu. Domi revealed the to Qui-Gon that Elan
was the true heir, shortly after Lonnag Giba attempted to assassinate her. She agreed to travel to Galu, and eventually threw in her
support - and that of the Hill People - to Wila Prammi. Despite acknowledging her heritage, Elan chose not to take the Tallah surname
until she was ready to accept it. (MOC)
2) this Yuuzhan Vong priestess accompanied Harrar on his mission to oversee the invasion of the known galaxy, after the loss of
Shedao Shai's fleet at Ithor. She was considered beautiful by both Yuuzhan Vong and human terms, having a shapely figure and long,
raven-black hair. Her father was a personal advisor to Supreme Overlord Shimrra. She agreed to become a hostage, as part of a plan
to begin wiping out the Jedi Knights. She allowed herself to become a host for a group of bo'tous, a bioweapon which could be exhaled
in a confined space, killing all beings who breathed it in. She herself knew that survival was not guaranteed, but knew that her mission
would place her in a position of greatness with the Deception Sect. The plan was for Elan to be captured and request political asylum,
as well as a meeting with the Jedi Knights. She offered them the antidote to the disease which had been killing Mara Jade Skywalker,
as an indication of her sincerity. In a battle staged to provide cover, she and her familiar, Vergere, jettisoned from a Yuuzhan Vong
warship and was rescued. She was initially questioned on Wayland, but a planted "assassin" tried to kill her. She was then escorted to
Coruscant by Major Showolter, but their ship - the Queen of Empire -was attacked by the Peace Brigade. The mercenaries hoped to
return Elan to the Yuuzahn Vong, to prove their loyalty and worth. Showolter was injured, and Han Solo was asked to escort her. Han
was unable to escape with Elan, and they were discovered by Reck Desh and the Peace Brigade. Elan was brought to the mercenaries'
ship, in preparation for returning her to the Yuuzhan Vong. Elan took matters into her own hands, exhaling one breath of the bo'tous to
kill the mercenaries. However, when she tried to kill Solo as well, she found herself trapped in the hold of the Millennium Falcon with the
bioweapon. She quickly succombed to the death it brought. (HT)

mother's brother was Ylenic It'kla. Through genetic memnii, Elegos felt a bond with Corran, andexplained that becoming his manservant
would be beneficial to the Caamasi on Kerilt in the long run. This vision came to pass when Elegos accompanied Corran to Suarbi 7/5,
where they rescued Mirax and defeat Leonia Tavira. On Surabi 7/5, Elegos discovered a owrld much more hospitable to the Caamasi
than Kerilt, and also found that the Khuiumin Survivors and surrednering members of the Invids would need the Caamasi guidance and
calmness to forge a new society. He also learned of the story of the Alderaan Graveyard through Tycho Celchu, and established a
similar way of honoring the Caamasi dead after he reloacted to Suarbi 7/5. Several years later, Elegos played a role in the resolution of
the Caamas Incident, helping deliver the fragment of transmission from Colonel Vermel to Leia Organa-Solo and setting up a meeting
between her and Admiral Pellaeon. Elegos was eventually named the Senator who represented the Caamasi Remnant in the New
Republic. He agreed to accompany Leia Organa Solo on a fact-finding mission to the Outer Rim Territories, in an effort to prove to the
Senate that the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy was a real threat. Eventually, they were forced to fight their way clear of the
Yuuzhan Vong to return to Coruscant, and still the leadership of the Republic failed to grasp the import of the invasion. Elegos finally
became fed up with politics, and traveled to Dubrillion to present himself as an envoy to Shedao Shai. Shedao Shai agreed to hosst
Elegos as an emissary, against the wishes of Deign Lian. Elegos and Shedao Shai learned much from each other, until the New
Republic discovered that the pollen of the bafforr tree caused permanent damage to their crab armor. In an effort to draw out Corran
Horn - who had killed two of his relatives - Shedao Shai murdered Elegos and had his skeleton gilded and packed in a sarcophagus.
Elegos' remains were sorely received by Corran, who eventually met Shedao Shai in a duel. (IJ, VOF, DTO, DTR)
Elephant Nose
a derogatory term for the Kubaz race (SW)
Eleton
this gaseous substance is found in large quantities on the planet Caaraz. It can be refined for use as a fuel source for weapons power
packs. It was for this reason that the Empire garrisoned Caaraz during the Galactic Civil War. (GG12)
Elfa
this small, personal submersible was operated by the Yarin harbor master of the Crystal Reef floating city, located near the arctic polar
cap of Calamari. It was provided for use by Cilghal, Jacen Solo, and Tenel Ka, who were trying to intercept Anja Gallandro. They later
used it to eliminate a stash of spice hidden under the polar ice by Black Sun operatives, but the sub was heavily damaged in an
encounter with the skra’akan. (CCR)
Elgar
this continent, located on the western hemisphere of Lazerian IV, was part of the kingdom of Devit. (TSK)
Eliad
a non-descript planet in the Minos Cluster, it was on Eliad that Emperor Palpatine exiled a large number of nobles after stripping them
of their power. He offered them the chance to remain alive - rather than make martyrs out of them by killing them - if they remained in
permanent exile. If they agreed, they were allowed to take with them all of their wealth. Eliad was one of a handful of remote worlds that
Palpatine chose as his exile colonies. With nothing to do and nowhere to go, the incredibly rich settlers of Eliad devised increasingly
sophisticated and demented ways of entertaining themselves. The inhabitants remained staunch, albeit quite, supporters of the Old
Republic, but they kept their beliefs to themselves rather than attract Imperial attention. Palpatine stationed a Lancer-class frigate in
orbit around Eliad, to keep the nobles in their places. The average day on Eliad lasts 21 standard hours, while its year encompasses
381 local days. (GG6)

Elix
a predator from a heavy-gravity world, they were transplanted to Dar'Or when their planet's sun went supernova. The environmentalists
who decided on Dar'Or failed to recognize that the elix's homeworld had much higher gravity that Dar'Or. Because of their high-gravity
evolution, the elix quickly overtook most of the life on the lower-gravity Dar'Or, including the sentient Ri'Dar. They are on the galaxy's
preservation list, but are often illegally hunted for their meat. (GG4)

this blue-skinned humanoid owned a used speeder and swoop shop in the city of Gralleenya, on Questal. Known as Honest Ellam, he
was basically honest about his prices and service, although he tended to embellish the histories of his merchandise. His homeworld’s
gravity is much less than standard, so he was confined to an anti-grav chair, which he used to propel his meter-tall body around his
sales yards. He had a large head and four long arms, and his eyes were a solid red in color. His V-shaped mouth gave him the
appearance of a perpetual smile. To make sure that he didn’t get robbed, Ellam kept a group of Gamorreans on retainer as
bodyguards. (GCQ)
Elliar
Isolder's former betrothed, the Lady was assassinated before they could be married. Although she never admitted it, many believe that

Elom
1) homeworld of the Elomin and Elom races, it is located in the Borderland Regions. The Elomin joined the Alliance in an effort to
escape slavery at the hands of the Empire, who sought to force the Elomin to mine lommite for them. It is a cold, barren world without
much vegetation. The planet's day is 26 standard hours in length, and its years lasts 406 local days. (TLC, HTSB, GG12)
2) this short, heavy race of shaggy humanoids is native to the underground caverns of the planet Elom. Their fur is oily and thick, and
their skin is tough enough to withstand the sharp rocks and stones of their habitat. Their fingers and toes end in hooked claws that are
used to grasp and dig. Their eyes are set on short stalks on either side of their heads, and their mouths are punctuated by two short
tusks. They are peaceful herbivores, and have remained outside of the galactic community while the Elomin have embraced the galaxy.
Some younger Eloms have been outspoken about receiving the benefits realized by the Elomin, and this dissention was only
heightened when the Empire took control of Elom. The Elom race evolved on the surface of Elom, but moved underground to search
out roots and tubers when the water levels of their planet dropped. Thus, they didn't gain from the interaction with the Old Republic or
the Empire, as did the Elomin. Many Eloms simply retreated deeper into their caves. The Star Wars Customizable Card Game confuses
Elom with Elomin, stating that the Eloms worked to sabotage the Imperial war machine by adapting stolen equipment for the Alliance.
(GG12, CCG7)
Elomin
natives of Elom, these tall, thin aliens and pointed ears and four horns. Their eyes are widely spaced, and their noses have tusks. They
have long hair sprouting from just behind their ears. The Elomin had little advanced technology when they were admitted to the Old
Republic, but readily accepted the new technologies they were given access to. When the Emperor Palpatine rose to power, the Elomin
were enslaved and forced to mine lommite for the Imperial war machine. The Star Wars Customizable Card Game confuses Elom with
Elomin, stating that the Eloms worked to sabotage the Imperial war machine by adapting stolen equipment for the Alliance. (TLC,

this man, a native of the planet Kuat, served the Imperial armed forces as a Lieutenant during the garrisoning of the forest moon of
Endor. A graduate of the Academy on the planet Corulag, Elsek formed a friendly rivalry with Avarik which continued on Endor. Where
Avarik was somewhat hot-headed, Elsek was smart and calm enough to make up for his partner's ways. Both were part of the scout
trooper corps at Endor, before the Alliance destroyed the second Death Star. (CCG10)

Elusive
1) this 50-meter long Imperial transport was assigned to mop up after the destruction of the Alliance base on Dankayo. The Elusive was
armed with a pair of laser cannons and four doube-turbolaser batteries. Its commanding officer recovered several apparently worthless
datapacks, which turned out to contain valuable information regarding Alliance undercover agents, safeworlds, and contacts. The ship
was pursued across Paradise Sector by Alliance agents, and the datapacks were eventually recovered after a skirmish with the Squibs
and Ugors. The battle erupted when the Squibs agreed to help drag the Elusive out of hyperspace with a gravity-well projector stolen
from the Ugors. (SH)
2) this was the personal starship of the Herglic gambler Narloch. It was a modified Mneffe-class Superluminal shuttle, armed with a
turret-mounted double laser cannon. (ND)
EM
this brand of entertainment modules immerses the user in an artificial world that looks, sounds, feels, tastes, and smells real. (RM)
Emancipation Virus
developed by Xalto Sneerzick and Babalabbet Swoont, this small program was designed to work its way into a droid’s programming
and destroy any subservient traits. The virus also eliminated the droid’s life preservation programming, freeing the droid from any bonds
it might have had to organic masters. Sneerzick had been raiding Cosmohaul Shipping transport vessels, looking for droids to free,
when he was presented the opportunity to take control of the Argent Lady and its cargo of 100 R5 droids. He set the emancipation virus
free among the R5s, hoping to test it further and enlist more followers. However, the R5 personality matrix - as programmed by
Industrial Automaton - was poorly completed in order to shave off a few credits in the price of the droids. The R5 series tends to grew
sour and bitter with age, and this trait brought out the worst possible result in the emancipation virus. The R5s began to turn against
anything in their way, including Sneerzick’s followers. The R5s were destroyed by a team of freelance mercenaries, but not before they
managed to kill Sneerzick and his fellow abolitionists. (SWJ9)
Emancipator
1) an Imperial-I class Star Destroyer captured by the New Republic, the Emancipator was known as the Imperial ship Accuser. The
Emancipator first saw duty for the New Republic when Laryn Kre'fey used it as the command ship in the assault on the Imperial
baseworld Blackmoon. Later, the Emancipator was the lead ship in the force sent to take Ciutric back from Prince-Admiral Krennel. The
ship and its fleet barely survived, and Emancipator lived to fight another day. After the rise to power of Emperor Palpatine;s clone on
Byss, the Emancipator was piloted by Wedge Antilles and Lando Calrissian at the first Battle of Calamari. It sustained a great deal of
damage, and Lando was finally forced to abandon it. Instead of condemning the ship to a useless death, he rammed a World
Devastator with it, after getting the crew offboard. Note that, according to X-Wing: Isard's Revenge, this ship was an Imperial-II class
warship. (DE1, XWN, IR)
2) this was the name Bria Tharen gave to the captured slave ship Helot’s Shackle. (RD)
Embaril
this beautiful planet is covered with rolling hills and wondrous lakes. It is located within the Allied Tion. (ML)
Embassies Row
this wide avenue, located within Coruscant's Dometown, was the site of many embassies which provided assistance to the variety of
non-human species who lived there. (BP)
Emberlene
this planet is the homeworld of the Mistryl warrior sect. The people of the planet believed that Emberlene was one of the first worlds
destroyed by the Empire for supposedly rebellious activity. This was the primary reason the Mistryl were created, as a way to exact
revenge on the Empire. The Mistryl felt all the more cheated when the destruction of the planet Caamas was made public, and there
was a great swelling of outrage - and still Emberlene remained a nearly lifeless hulk. However, Jorj Car'das eventually revealed the
truth behind Emberlene's destruction to Shada D'ukal. About three years before the destruction, the Eleven Elders who ruled the planet
set out to conquer and plunder any and all worlds within their reach. These actions were kept secret for nearly two and a half years,
before a group of their victims hired a mercenary force to combat them. The mercenaries were, in Car'das' words, "overly thorough" in
their efforts, and wiped out nearly all life on Emberlene. Car'das offered to give Shada the information that would lead her to source of
the mercenary group, but she decided that the time had come for her people to simply start living again, rather than existing only for
revenge. (SOP, VOF)
Embrace of Pain
this was the term used by the Yuuzhan Vong to describe their restraint system used to control slaves. The Embrace of Pain used
leather-like straps to bind the arms, legs, and torso of a captive. It administered a constant level of pain to the captive, to remind the
captive that it was securely bound. If the captive became too immune to the pain, the Embrace could administer more. If the captive
suffered too much, the Embrace could reduce the amount of pain it produced. In this way, a slave could be quickly forced into
submission. The leather bands could tighten automatically if the captive tried to escape, although escape was difficult because the
captive was restrained in an inverse position: feet up in the air, head near the ground. (DTO)
Emerald Shark
a colorful, predatory fish native to the planet Dubrillion. (DTR)
Emeraude
this was a brilliant green gemstone. (BP)
Emergency Stud

Emil, Vin
this doctor of planetology was one of the original personnel at the Q'Maere Research Facility, and was also one of those stranded at
the base when Moff Sarne fled Kal'Shebbol. He was offered a top-secret position by Sarne himself, a position which Emil gladly
accepted. However, his participation in the interrogation and destruction of prisoners left him a withdrawn and introverted individual.
(KR)
Emissary, The
according to the ancient Sharu legends, the Emissary will accompany by the Bearer when it it time for the Mindharp to be activated,
when it is time for the Sharu to emerge from hiding. The Emissary is described in the legends as a strange, five-sided alien who is more
mechanical than organic. When Rokur Gepta heard this, he activated Vuffi Raa and kept him on Rafa IV while Osuno Whett went to the
Oseon to search out a candidate for the Bearer. When Whett found Lando Calrissian, he used Vuffi Raa as credit in a game of sabacc,
which he lost on purpose. This led Lando to the Rafa System and into the hands of Gepta and Duttes Mer. (LCM)
Emlee
this young woman was a servant indentured to Baroness Muehling of Kuat. In reality, Emlee was Jaina Solo, who was working with
Mara Jade Skywalker to discover the truth behind Dassid Cree’ar’s work on the planet Duro. (BP)
Emmer
a planet located in Nilgaard Sector. It was the first terrestrial planet in the Emmer System, which was dominated by an asteroid belt and
a gas giant with six moons. It was colonized many millennia before the Battle of Yavin, and the human stock of the original colonists
evolved into a stout-bodied race of near-humans known as Emmerians. The planet was also home to contingents of Herglics, Ugors,
and Defels. Those areas not covered with urban sprawl were covered with a tall grass which radiated a polychromatic light like a fiber-
optic cable. This grass was extremely resilient and fast-growing, making it impossible to build roads on the planet. The planet's heavy
gravity virtually nullified the effects of standard repulsor-lift vehicles, so walker-like vehicles were produced to move about. The Empire
modeled their AT-AT's after many Emmerian innovations. (ND)
Emmerians
this race of stout near-humans descended from the original human colonists of the planet Emmer. (ND)
Emotional Hostages
1) a song written and played by Anadale Fayde. It was first released as part of the compilation Darkness on the Land, and has been

this Interdictor-class warship was part of Zsinj's fleet, which he brought to Kuat in an effort to steal a Super-class Star Destroyer. (IF)
Emperor's Palace
this was the name of a specialized obstacle used in swoopchasing. The obstacle consisted of three successive solid barriers, each with
a pattern of holes cut into them. Racers were required to navigate their swoops through similar holes in each wall in order to escape the
obstacle. This involved quick thinking and visual dexterity, as the rider had to quickly identify the next hole before slamming into a solid
wall. If a rider went through the wrong hole, a severe time penalty was issued. (BSS)
Emperor’s Plague
developed by Evir Derricote, thus mutagenic plague killed only human beings. (TEP)
Emperor's Revenge
this Imperial-class Star Destroyer was dispatched to Phaeda with the Steadfast by Carnor Jax. The two warships destroyed much of the
planet's Collo Fauale pass, in an effort destroy Mirith Sinn's New Republic forces and to eliminate Kir Kanos. Carnor Jax then ordered
the ship to follow Kanos to Yinchorr, where her commander, General Wessel, captured Kanos' Scimitar bomber. However, the boimber
was rigged to explode upon opening, a ruse recognized by Jax. Jax fled the Emperor's Revenge in a shuttle, just before Wessel
opened the bomber. The Emperor's Revenge was destroyed in the blast. (CE)
Emperor's Shadow
this was the name given to Emperor Palpatine's personal yacht. It was rumored to have disappeared shortly after the Battle of Endor,
although it was supposedly seen near Kaal several times. It was commanded by Jeng Droga, and was believed to have one of the
original cloaking devices created by the Empire. (SWJ14)
Emperor's Sword, The
this squadron of TIE Fighters was trained to protect Emperor Palpatine whenever he traveled away from Coruscant. Despite their
mission, the squadron often flew older models of TIE Fighters because of their skills and experience with them. (CCG11)
Emperor's Twilight
this Corellian Corvette was attacked by pirates near the planet Abatrarg. (PG2)
Emperor's Will
1) this Victory-class (Imperial-class?) Star Destroyer was part of the fleet guarding Coruscant when the Rogue Squadron infiltrated the
planet. When the New Republic arrived to retake the planet, the Emperor's Will and the Imperator were not sent into the battle. It was
assumed that Ysanne Isard took them with her when she retreated to Lusankya. (WG)
2) this Star Galleon was operated by the Imperial Taxation Bureau during the height of the New Order. The crew of the Far Orbit
attempted to capture this ship and collect the huge sum of credits in her holds, but was intercepted by the Interdictor cruiser Claw near
Esseles. The Far Orbit was forced to flee into the Ringali Nebula, but later caught the Emperor's Will and her escort, the Zaff
Jendinpurg, on their return from Esseles. The Emperor's Will was armed with ten turbolasers and a concussion missile launcher. (FOP)
Emperor's Wisdom
one of the Victory-class Star Destroyers in Prince-Admiral Krennel's fleet, the Emperor's Wisdom was paired with the Decisive during
the blockade of Liinade III. Later, when Krennel began planning his conquest of Coruscant, he placed the two ships - along with his
flagship, the Reckoning - at the forefront of his assault force. However, the force was trapped at Ciutric by the two fleets sent by the
New Republic to liberate the planet. In the ensuing battle, the Emperor's Wisdom was destroyed. (IR)
Empeth Crystals
these strange crystals grow in the Crystal Valley on Lazerian IV. The crystals grow once every ten years, and only a pair grow each
time. These cubic crystals seem to glow with an inner light, and once harvested from the valley they are nearly indestructible. Empeth
crystals “live” for about five years after being picked, after which time they become dull, lackluster rocks. The empeth crystals are
protected and hoarded by the King of Devit, on Lazerian IV. While valued for their beauty, empeth crystals also have an affinity for the
Force. A Force-sensitive individual can detect the Force in another individual while holding a crystal. (TSK)
Empion Mine
this form of mine was developed at the same time as the Morrt droid project. They ahd two functions. The first was to explode and take
out its intended target. Second, it would send out a communication burst via hyperspace channel to the ship that launched it, indicating
its position and its success. (WS)
Empire, The
the name given to the regime established by Senator Palpatine when he assumed the position of galactic ruler and instituted his New
Order. The basic belief of the Empire was to rule by fear of force rather than by force itself. Palpatine became the Emperor, and built a
huge war machine in order to instill fear. Palpatine's use of the Dark Side of the Force bolstered his ability to control the galaxy, until he
was destroyed during the Battle of Endor. After that, the Empire floundered for a number of years. Various warlords and Imperial
officers tried to re-establish momentum for the Empire in a series of skirmishes with the New Republic, but none was able to triumph
over it. Even the reborn Emperor Palpatine tried to strike back from a hidden base on Byss, but could not defeat Luke Skywalker and
the New Republic. (SW, ESB, ROTJ, HTTE, DE1, JS)
Empire Forever
this Imperial CR-90 consular ship was dispatched to carry Coh Veshiv to the Ringali Shell. Veshiv considered the ship his personal
flagship, and was extensively modified to provide him with a variety of recreational pursuits while in flight. The ship was also armed with
six double turbolaser cannons, and had a docking area added which could accommodate six TIE Fighters. (FOP)
Empire Reborn
the grand scheme developed by Hethrir following the destruction of the Empire and the loss of Emperor Palpatine. Hethrir planned to
restore the Empire to its former glory by first subverting the minds of children, eventually turning their parents and other adults. He was
also getting support from other Imperial agents. He attempted to gain absolute power by dealing with the being Waru, but was
consumed by Waru before his Empire Reborn could be created. (CS)
The Empire Strikes Back was also nominated for the following awards:
- Best Art Direction (Lesley Dilley, Harry Lance, Alan Tomkins)
- Best Set Decoration (Michael Ford)
- Best Original Score (John Williams)
(ESB)
Empire Youth
part of Hethrir's grand plan for the Empire Reborn revolved around using Force-sensitive children to promote the new regime. Hethrir
kept his students on a worldcraft secretly located in the galaxy. He continually culled the children for their levels of Force sensitivity,
often culling non-humans without regard. Those children removed from the worldcraft were sold into slavery, and the profits were turned
over to the Empire Reborn. (CS)
Empleh
a disabled Imperial tug attacked by Alliance starfighters during a raid. (XW)
Empress's Diadem
this YT-1210 light freighter was the ship that Melina Carniss used in support of Booster Terrik's operations while stationed in the
Yag'Dhul system, running the space Station for Rogue Squadron. The Diadem was armed with a pair of turret-mounted blasters and a
concussion missile launcher. Note that this strongly indicates that Melina Carniss was actually Mara Jade, despite the fact that Tales
from Jabba's Palace describes Carniss as one of Jabba's lead dancers. (BW)
Emptiness, The
another of Lando Calrissian's mystical references. (LCM)
Emtrey
the M-3PO droid assigned to Rogue Squadron about two and a half years after the Battle of Endor, Emtrey had been cobbled together
and reprogrammed by Lieutenant Losca. Losca had been trying to supply the Alliance with needed consumables, but was meeting with
limited success. She built Emtrey to act as a sort of commodities broker, added brokering code and a scrounging routine that could be
activated by a code phrase repeated three times. The scrounging routine, as discovered by the Rogues, is activated by repeating the
phrase "shut up" three times. It was eventually removed from Emtrey's memory banks. (XWN, WG, KT)
Empyrean
this New Republic battle cruiser was stationed at Cybloc XII until it was dispatched to quell a pirate uprising near Budpock. The ship
was drawn away from the planet of Nam Chorios by the manipulations of Seti Ashgad and Dzym. The ship was overtaken by Loronar
Corporation Needle ships near Nim Drovis, and was forced to flee the battle in order to survive. It never made it, as the Needles
continued to hound the ship, pelting its shields and eventually exploding it. (POT)

this Fallanassi woman was a prisoner on the Pride of Yevetha during the Black Fleet Crisis. Enara was one of the few prisoners to
befriend Han Solo while they were imprisoned in the cargo holds. She tapped into the White Current to help Chewbacca and
Lumpawarump locate Solo in the Super-class Star Destroyers cargo holds. She also created false images of several other Fallanassi,
to make the Yevetha believe that they had more captives than they believed. She remained behind on the Pride of Yevetha to keep the
illusion up, allowing Solo and the Wookiees to escape. (TT)

providing a jumping-off point for travel heading toward the Outer Rim. (TSK)
Enasteri, Charis
this elderly woman traveled with her husband, Neth, and settled on the planet Rhamalai to escape the Jedi purge. When the Empire
invaded the planet, she decided to help her daughter, Nadra, and Denel Moonrunner escape the invasion. Unfortunately, the Empire
deemed her condition beyond medical treatment and scheduled her for euthanasia. Nadra arranged to get her freed by falsifying
Denel's work orders, and all three managed to escape the governmental offices in Argona. Charis hated the Empire and everything it
stood for, and overcame the illness she suffered to help them escape the city. However, they were seperated by Imperial fire before
they could reach the Moonrunner residence. Denel managed to escape, but was unable to recover Charis and Nadra before Imperial
fighters fired on the Refugee. Nadra and Charis were forced to remain on Rhamalai. (SWJ13)
Enasteri, Nadra
the daughter of Charis Enasteri, Nadra was born on the planet Rhamalai a few years after her parents settled on the planet. She was
seventeen when the Empire subjugated the planet. Nadra had been trained as a medic and healer at the Bellorin Medical Academy, but
returned to Rhamalai when her mother became ill. She found worked in the local governmental offices, where she found work as a
civilian medic. She believed her father to be dead, but Charis revealed that he had fled Rhamalai when she was but a year old before
to avoid Imperial agents. She used her access to the governmental offices in Argona to rescue her mother and her childhood friend,
Denel Moonrunner. However, they were pinned down before Denel could return with his family and the Refugee, and Nadra and Charis
were forced to remain on Rhamalai. (SWJ13)
Enasteri, Neth
this man was Jedi Knight who traveled to the planet Rhamalai to escape Darth Vader and the Jedi purge. At the time, he was married to

Endor
1) this silvery gas giant planet, located in the Moddell Sector, is orbited by nine moons, including the Forest Moon of Endor. It is not
located near any hyperspace node, and requires a fairly complex series of jumps in order to get there. (ROTJ, MTS, AT, ISU, EA)
2) the second moon of the planet Endor, most often known as the Forest Moon of Endor, is sometimes simply referred to as Endor.
(BHAS)
Endor
1) alias Han uses for the cargo shuttle he uses to escape from Kessel. It is used when he first arrives at the Maw Installation. (JS)
2) the Alliance Corona-class frigate that collided with the Shooting Star, following a mistimed hyperspace jump. The jump was part of a
routine fleet exercise. All hands on both ships were lost, and the disaster became an object lesson for those navigators who thought
about quickly entering jump data during any fleet movement. (SOL)
Endor Day
a day of celebration legislated by the New Republic, it was intended to honor all those who died during the Battle of Endor. The
highlight of every Endor Day celebration were the sequential blasts of fireworks set off to recreate the celebration which occurred on the

Endovan
this planet aligned itself with the New Republic after the Battle of Endor. It was believed that Rodin Baem stole information from New
Republic computers on this planet. (WBC)
Endurance
a New Republic Endurance-class fleet carrier assigned to the Fifth Battle Group. At Orinda, the Endurance kept its smaller fighters in
their bays until most of the Imperial fire was eliminated. This proved to be a faulty tactic, as the Endurance came under fire from a Star
Destroyer. The ship was overwhelmed, and was destroyed before it could launch any form of counterattack. (BTS)
Endwa
this meat is a Corellian staple and, like most Corellian foods, is best served fried. It is said that properly-cooked endwa slides down the
throat slowly. (IJ)
Energy Array
this was the name given to the starship system that maintained the distribution of power to weapons, shields, and engines. The exact
distribution of power could be set by the pilot, but the Energy Array maintained it during flight and/or combat. (XWA)
Energy Ball
a small artillery weapon developed by the Gungans, energy balls were just that: small blue spheres of coherent energy. They came in
various sizes, depending on the target the Gungans were using them against. Each energy ball acted much like the blast from an ion
cannon. The energy contained in the blue sphere was dispersed upon detonation, wreaking havoc with electrical systems and severely
damaging organic nervous systems. The outer shell is made from a charged organic matrix, while the innards are made from unstable
energy masses. (TPM, IG1)
Energy Battery
any multi-cannon laser or ion weapon. (SW)
Energy Binder
this thick band of electromagentic energy is harnessed between two small generators, and is used to keep the opposing engines of a
pod racer from flying off in opposite directions. While generally harmless when compared to the rest of the pod’s components, a body
part caught in the binder’s beam will be rendered numb for hours. (SW1)
Energy Cell
any rechargeable power source. (SW)
Energy Cutter
a starship mechanic's tool. (HSE)
Energy Drum
one of the marvels of Gungan technology, the energy drum supplies the power needed to generate their incredible deflector shields. It
is often mounted atop a fambaa or other large creature, and is designed to collect energy from an energy emitter and store it for use in
the shields. At the touch of a switch, the drum releases the energy in the form of a viscous shield that forms a dome over the heads of
the Gungan army. (IG1)
Energy Emitter
this Gungan devices is mounted atop a fambaa or other large creature, and then drawn into battle. When activated, the emitter
generates a huge amount of power that is focused onto a nearby energy drum. The drum then collects the energy and uses it to
generate a powerful deflector shield. (IG1)
Energy Gate
a static force field used to restrict access to an area. (SW)
Energy Lathe
a machinist's tool found in most spaceport repair shops. (SWR)
Energy Mining
an illegal form of mining in which powerful bursts of energy are used to cut through the rock and locate natural ores and minerals. The
discharges produced by the creation of the energy beam as well as from the mining process itself are flung into a planet's atmosphere,
where they interact with the planet's natural energies to create huge electrical storms and deadly fallout. It is for this reason that energy
mining has been outlawed, since it posed significant threats to a planet's populace. (SME)
Energy Pike
this crude weapon is similar to a force pike, but releases an electrical discharge on contact. (SWJ9)
Energy Shell
this projectile weapon was developed by the Baktoid Armor Workshop for deployment in the AAT battle tank. An energy shell is a
contained detonation device wrapped in a protective cocoon of plasma energy. This cocoon allows it to penetrate further before
exploding, making it a dangerous piece of artillery. (X1)
Energy Sink
this device is used in many forms of battle armor. Its primary function is to absorb the energy of a blaster bolt which strikes the armor.
On stormtrooper armor, the energy sinks are the small blocks located on the utility belt. (ISB)
Energy Spider
a denizen of the Kessel spice mines, it is a spider that looks like it is made of glass. They apparently are another source of the
glitterstim spice, which they also consume and synthesize for use as a webbing to trap the bogeys for food. They use their fangs to
impale their victims and drain their life-energy. There rounded bodies are studded with dozens of legs, hundreds of mouths, and literaly
thousands of eyes. They are also known as spice spiders. (JS, JASB)

order to view the current status of a bounty. (GG10)
Enforcement Guides
these were the primary police force of the planet Kegan, during the rulership of V-Tan and O-Vieve. (FFT)
Enforcer
this Imperial bulk cruiser was part of Admiral Greelanx’s last line, during the Battle of Nar Shaddaa. (THG)
Enforcer One
the ancient dreadnaught used by Bogga the Hutt as a command ship. Enforcer One was a Core Galaxy Systems Dreadnaught, heavily
modified from its stock beginnings. The ship had been decommissioned from the Old Republic's Navy and shipped to the salvage yards
at Ord Trasi. Bogga obtained the ship there, and began modifying it. It has a fixed, heavy turbolaser which servde as its primary
weapon. The turbolaser had an advanced cooling system that kept the separate power generator and laser actuator from overheating.
Sixteen turret-mounted laser cannons supplement the turbolaser, and four tractor beam projectors allow the ship to control smaller
ships. Six light tactical fighters are housed in the docking bay. (TOJ, EGV)
Enforcer Pistol
this .48-caliber projectile weapon was the trademark sidearm of the Morellian Enforcer. It was developed by the Morellian Weapons
Conglomerate during the Old Republic. Despite its low-tech design, many modern weapons experts admired the Enforcer Pistol's
balanced weight, its lack of recoil despite its power, and its sheer ability to cause large amounts of damage. (AIR)
Engagement at Jestan
this Alliance won a decisive victory in this battle, due mainly to the tactical expertise of Beryl Chiffonage. (AIR)
Engira
a planet which is home to an Imperial supply base. (SWSB)
Engret
a young boy working with Rekkon when Rekkon was a teacher. Engret's sister was an outspoken legal scholar, and held a great dislike
for the Corporate Sector Authority. When she suddenly disappeared, Engret joined Rekkon's mission to find out what the Authority was
doing with the people it kidnapped. Unfortunately, when Han Solo came to transport Rekkon and his team to Orron III, Engret was left
behind. (HSE)
Enhanced-bonding Plating
a special form of exterior plating that allows it to better deflect energy. Stars' End was built from this plating, but it proved to be part of
the station's downfall, because the plating helped deflect the explosion at the tower's base, redirecting the force down toward the planet
and causing the tower to be shot into the air. (HSE)
EnhanceScan
this CryonCorp general-purpose scanner has a range of up to 1500 meters when scanning for life forms. Its motion and metal detectors
have an optimal range of just 500 meters. (CCG9)

Ennead
this biological machine was the Yuuzhan Vong version of a tank. (DTR)
Ennth
this planet was a colony world which seemed to resist any attempt at settlement. The first colonists established a series of outposts on
the world, and soon learned that the planet’s single moon had a wildly elliptic orbit. This orbit brought it close enough to Ennth every
eight years for it to skim through Ennth’s atmosphere. This proximity resulted in incredible tidal and seismic stresses that tore the world
apart every eight years. The colonists fled to space stations in orbit to survive the devstation, but their strength and will led them to
return after the moon had passed and rebuild their settlements. (LO, JUS, SHA)
Enouck
an Alliance Shuttle group destroyed during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE)

(TBSB)
Entana Run
this hyperspace route wound through the Lesser Plooriod Cluster. Together with the Burna Trade Route, it formed the boundary of Urce
Space. (AIR)
Entechment
this Ssi-ruuvi technology allowed them to drain off the life-essence of a living being and store it in unusual batteries for powering their
droid starships and other technologies. The process worked best on humans, since their connections to the Force were stronger. The
subject was injected with a magnetic solution which was absorbed into the nervous system, and an external circuit was attuned to the
internal magnetization of the subject. This “catchment arc” then collected the life-energy of the subject and placed it in batteries. The
subject almost always died after the entechment was complete. (TB, TBSB)
Entechment Chair
device used by the Ssi-ruuvi to collect brain energy for use in driving shipboard circuits or battle droids. A special chair was designed to
hold Luke Skywalker. (TB)
Entel, Jor
a ruthless and vicious pirate captain, Jor Entel worked in the Demophon System. He lured unsuspecting passengers on his ship, the
Night Wind, promising passage off the doomed planets. Once off-planet, Entel and his crew would slaughter their passengers and
dump their bodies after taking whatever booty they could. He and his crew were killed by a group of Alliance agents who discovered
that he had murdered Enid Vahr. (SN)

its streets and spires. (SWJ8)
Enth
this is the second combination symbol in the Aurebesh script, and represents the Basic combination "ae". (SWM)
Entralla
this primary planet in the Entralla System is located in the Velcar Free Commerce Zone. It wasn't always a member of the FCZ. Before
the institution of the New Order, Entralla was a free world. It was a world of various religious beliefs, each with a strong following. It also
had a deep history of glorious deeds and mythical warriors. Palpatine later took control of the world. Following the Battle of Endor, the
natives of the planet had planned to secede from the Empire and join the Alliance, but they were overrun by the Pentastar Alignment.
The New Republic could not send aid, and the planet was usurped. (SWAJ)
Entropy, The
another of Lando Calrissian's mystical references. (LCM)
Entrus
this temperate, ocean-covered world was known as the recreation capital of Trax Sector. Entrus' economy is primarily based on
incomes from gambling, supplemented by catering to the whims and desires of the sector's wealthiest inhabitants. The city areas are
located on small islands, and are densely populated. Weather on the planet was remarkably consistent and very pleasant, due in part to
the system's powerful sun. During the Galactic Civil War, the Alliance established its Trax Sector command center on Entrus, under the
noses of the Imperial officers who vacationed on the planet. (GMK)
Entuur
a planet. (AIR)
Entuuran
this was the name used to describe the human inhabitants of the planet Entuur. (AIR)
Entymal
an alien race from the planet Endex, the Entymals were used as slave labor by the Amber Sun Mining Corporate in the Bextar System.
These lanky, humanoid insects had a green exoskeleton, and had specialized gliding membranes under their arms. They make
excellent pilots, as their brains were highly developed, giving them excellent spatial reasoning capability. Although not part of a hive
mind, the Entymal society was based on the classic hive arrangement. A queen ruled each nation, with barren females serving her.
Male drons were only good for two things: performing labor and mating with the queen. (SWAJ, AE)
Enu
this race of near-humans is characterized by their thin bodies and their large, pale eyes. They are native to the planet Deylerax. (WBC)
ENVC-370
this model of reflective body glove was produced by Syncronics. It allowed the wearer to survive a blaster shot by reflecting the effects
of the weapon. The suit could only absorb a limited amount of energy before needed to be discarded and replaced. (GG10)
Envelope
this was the codename of the datafile package provided by Mal Biron to any prospective smugglers and spacer who wish to work for
him. Biron usually waited until he had a group of candidates before handing out the Envelopes, and he always had Kalend Thora
watching them. The instructions in the datafiles explain a series of runs to be made along the Sisar Run, with the smuggler or crew
completing the runs in the best time eventually gaining the new contract. (SSR)
Enviro-analyzer
this device was developed for use by scouts and other galactic explorers. This compact, rectangular box held a number of sensors,
including radiation detectors, spectrameters, temperature monitors, mineral spotters, and lifesign sensors. (GG8)
Enzeen
this species of blue-skinned humanoids was from an unknown world, and were not often encountered in the galaxy. They had needle-
like spikes in place of hair on their heads, and were chubby in form. They were apprehensive about the modern technology of the
galaxy, but were very friendly to other races. Borborygmus Gog relocated a colony of Enzeen to the planet D'vouran as part of Project
Starscream. They immediately formed a symbiotic relationship with the bioengineered world, attracting tourists and luring them into the
forest, where the planet could devour them. In return, the Enzeen were allowed to insert their tube-like tongues into the planet's crust
and suck out sustenance of their own. They were protected from the planet's hunger by wearing small pendants that projected a sort of
force field around them. After Mammon Hoole exposed the secrets of D'vouran to the Alliance, certain discoveries led the possible
conclusion that the Enzeen were also bio-engineered by the Empire to watch over the planet. (GOF1)
Enzymer
this device was used by merchants who worked on alien worlds or with imported merchandise. It scanned a piece of material and
provided details about its chemical makeup. It accomplished this by retrieving biological residues and growing them in small cultures.
With this data, the enzymer can then develop counter-agents to any potentially poisonous or dangerous bacteria. (SWJ14)
Eol Sha
this a new-formed world of immense seismic activity is located near the Cauldron Nebula. It has only one moon, but the moon's orbit is
slowly decaying. It has been estimated that, within a 100 years, it will impact the planet. The planet was settled during the Old Republic,
just decades before Palpatine rose to power. The goal was to mine the gases from the nearby nebula, but the planet's instability
destroyed that endeavor. The planet's day encompasses 19 standard hours, while its year lasts 326 local days. (JS, JASB)
Eoodso
this Jeodu was one of Dequc’s personal guards. (MJEH)
Eopie
this herd animal is native to the planet Tatooine. Eopies have small, bulbous bodies supported by four spindly legs. They are quite sure-
footed in the sandy desert, but are awkward in water. Adults are also used as beasts of burden, while the young and elderly eopies are
useful for consuming the desert weeds that grow up near homes and hydroponics labs. (SW1, GF)
Ephant Mon
this Chevin was known for his mercenary skills. He specialized in gun running, and would sell his wares to just about anyone. Shortly
before the Battle of Naboo, Ephant Mon was involved with two intertwined but equally illegal operations for Jabba the Hutt: the import of
high technology to Cerea, and the export of malium from the planet. In the business with Bron, Ephant Mon befriended Maj-Odo-Nomor
and his techrat friends in order to gain a measure of popular support while remaining behind the scenes. However, the plan was
thwarted by the appearance of Ki-Adi-Mundi, who was searching for his own daughter, Sylvn, as well as Maj. Ephant Mon was forced to
transport them to Tatooine, but was stowed away on a cargo ship that contained divvik pupae. The pupae hatched, forcing them to hide
in an escape pod. The divviks damaged much of the ship’s control systems in their rage to find flesh, and left the escape pod’s ejection
systems disabled. Mon used the presence of Sylvn to lure Ki to their rescue. When the situation turned against him, Ephant Mon
jettisoned the escape pod and returned to Jabba’s palace with Sylvn and Twin in chains. They tried to diffuse the situation by leaving
the two girls at the mercy of one of Tatooine’s awesome ion storms. The plan was to distract Ki while they covered their tracks. Ki
managed to rescue the girls, but Mon and Jabba the Hutt managed to evade capture. He worked with Jabba several years later,
running weapons on one of Glakka's moons. One of Jabba's men had turned them into the Imperial authorities, and Mon and Jabba
were forced to fight their way out. They were able to escape, but had to brave chill weather during the night. Jabba wrapped his
then-thinner body around Mon, keeping him warm until the night passed and they could get off-world. Since then, Ephant Mon had
remained loyal to Jabba for saving his life. Ephant had many offers of employment from Lady Valarian while on Tatooine, but he kept
strongly to his loyalties to Jabba. When Luke Skywalker entered Jabba's palace, Ephant Mon was drawn to the young Jedi. Luke
appealed to Mon to warn Jabba about his imminent demise, and Mon discovered that he had been following something similar to the
Force his entire life. He pleaded with Jabba. but to no avail. Jabba then accused Mon of plotting against him, and spurned the Chevin.
Jabba left for the Pit of Carkoon without Mon at his side. The novelization of Return of the Jedi has Ephant Mon in a battle with
Ree-Yees aboard Jabba's Sail Barge while Jabba was taking Luke and Han to the Great Pit of Carkoon. Ephant Mon was getting
beaten very badly, much to Jabba's pleasure. It is believed that Ephant Mon was killed aboard Jabba's sail barge when it exploded.
Mon, upon hearing of Jabba's death, returned to Vinsoth to contemplate the Force and run a few profitable scams on the side. (ROTJ,
GG5, TJP, PTR)
Ephemera
this planet was the home of a merchant who gave Jabba the Hutt an unsual gift: a small bank in the shape of a native creature. Jabba
bequeathed the bank to his nephew, Gorga. The will stated that Gorga had been given control of “...the entire holdings of Jabba’s
bank.” (TJT)
Ephram Warrick
Wicket's great-grandfather, Ephram was a famous Ewok warrior. He defeated the Duloks by using a weapon-filled War Wagon. (ECAR)
Epicanthix
a near-human race, the Epicanthix are geneticall very close to standard human stock. Their variances from baseline humans are subtle:
all Epicanthix have long, black hair; they are well-muscled, and tend to be williowy and graceful; and they are extremely warlike in their
ways. Their closeness to baseline humans suggested to many xenoarchaeologists that the Epicanthix were descended from a forgotten
civilization effort many millennia before the rise of the New Order. Under the guidance of the warrior-chief Canthar, the Epicanthix
moved from an industrial society to space-level technologies in a matter of millennia. (SE, SESB, AE)

Eponte Spaceport
located on the Madieri continent of Kabaira, this high-altitude spaceport was built from ancient brick-lined streets. However, the
spaceport embraces none of the nostalgia they evoke. The damp, foggy weather permeates the disreputable establishments of the
spaceport. (SWAJ)
Eppon
this was the name used by Tash and Zak Arranda to describe the small child they discovered in the laboratory hidden on the planet
Kiva. They first found Eppon as an infant in an egg-shaped creche, and the baby could only say one word: "eppon." They had nothing
else to call it, so they named it "Eppon." However, the baby began to grow before their eyes, becoming a toddler just as a team from
the Alliance arrived on Kiva to search out Project Starscream. Little did they know that Eppon was the culmination of the Project's
research. As Eppon continued to grow at an incredible rate, he required food. He consumed several unwary Alliance soldiers before his
true nature was revealed by Borborygmus Gog, his creator. Eppon was the first of Gog's Army of Terror, a group of biologically-created
weapons that would never die, could change form at will, could read the minds of its victims and use their deepest fears against them,
was impervious to the Force, and grew stronger with each feeding. As Eppon matured, a purple splotch spread from his forehead to
cover his entire body with a scale-like armor, and he transformed from a child into a hideous monster. When Eppon turned on Gog after
realizing his fate, Gog activated the fail-safe mechanism in each of his warriors: a small explosive implanted in Eppon's brain. The
explosion destroyed muc of Eppon's body, but a small spark of life remained alive afterward. (GOF6)

onto the communications of a Jedi working from a remote location and scramble the incoming transmission's header data. This way, the
origination point of the message was unreadable to any being who tried to slice the transmission in order to pinpoint a Jedi's location.
The exterior walls of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant were dotted with eradictors. (IWE1).

Ergesh
this alien race is native to the swampy planet of Ergeshui. They are about two meters tall, and resemble shambling mounds of plant
material, and can live to be more than 200 standard years of age. Their bodies are covered with droopy, slimy appendages of various
sizes and lengths, and have coloration including greens, browns, and grays. They are intelligent, curious creatures which are very
gentle. It has been said that Ergesh communication sounded like thick mud coming to a rapid boil, although most Ergesh prefer to
speak Basic. Two Ergesh reproduce by planting one seed from each body in the shoolbloorp swamp during a special mating ceremony.

on several organic appendages for navigation, fire control, and communications. The Starjumper is powered by the life energies of the
800 Ergesh who operate it. This symbiosis makes the Starjumper unusable by other species. (PG2)
Ergeshui
this planet is the only world in the Agash System. It is a hostile world, covered with a thick, nitrogen and carbon dioxide atmosphere
blanketing a moist, swampy landmass. This dense atmosphere filters the light from Agash, bathing the landscape in an eerie, red glow.

Ergo, Brixie
the daughter of a prominent Entrallan doctor and his wife, Brixie was drawn to the study of alien species. She excelled in this field, and
was about to graduate from medical school herself when the Pentastar Alignment conscripted her parents as combat medics. She
thought of joining the New Republic, but the Republic was unable to spare forces to deal with the Alignment. She was recruited by
Andrephan Stormcaller in a tavern, where he was posing as a drunkard who was willing to listen to her rantings. She decided to join the
Red Moons as a medic, and two months later she accompanied the team sent to Gabredor III. She was to be ready to provide
assistance to the kidnapped children of the Cantras Gola ambassador. The mission exposed her to the harsh realities of the struggle
against the Alignment, as Lex Kempo lost his life saving hers. (SWJ8, TFE)

Errant Venture
this was the name Booster Terrik used for the Star Destroyer he obtained from the New Republic following the liberation of Thyferra.
Formerly known as the Virulence, it was severely stripped of weaponry due to New Republic regulations for civilian ships. The interior of
the vast ship was refitted to create a bazaar-like atmosphere, completely with food courts, multiple shopping levels, and several
discretely-hidden conference rooms. The ship was a continual troublespot for Booster, as he tried to run it with a minimal crew and
operations staff. Several systems, including weapons and turbolifts, were constantly under repair. Booster hired 200 Verpine
technicians to upgrade the ship to workable order, a task which took them more that seven months to complete. Part of the ship's
interior was gutted and formed into three entertainment and commercial levels - Black, Blue, and Diamond Levels - to cater to the wide
variety of customers Booster attracted. He maintained a strong security force made up of humans and Weequays. When Grand Admiral
Thrawn returned from the Unknown Regions to threaten the New Republic, Borsk Fey'lya campaigned for the Errant Venture to be
nationalized into the Republic's fleet. However, Intelligence had trouble locating the ship. Once they found it, Booster agreed to the
plan, provided that the ship be completely refitted and rearmed, with all modifications remaining intact after the battle. He also
demanded the assignment in rank of Admiral. Fey'lya and the Ruling Council were forced to leave the ship alone, but Airen Cracken
began sending out hints and rumors of the ship being used to track Thrawn. During the Caamas Incident, Booster reluctantly agreed to
let Garm Bel Iblis use the Venture in a raid on the Imperial archives at Yaga Minor, in an effort to obtain a copy of the Caamas
Document. Bel Iblis believed that the Venture could get close to the planet because none of its identification codes were known to the
Empire, and he maneuvered Booster into agreement by claiming that the resulting civil war - which would begin if the Document weren't
recovered soon - would series hamper his ability to do any business. Booster got a measure of revenge on Bel Iblis, though, because
Bel Iblis was forced to upgrade the weapons and shields get them up to Imperial standards, and Booster was allowed to keep them. He
even got a new paint job. In order to get the Venture close enough to Yaga Minor, Bel Iblis used ID codes from the Star Destroyer
Tyrannic, which hadn't been seen in several months. This proved to be the flaw in their plans, since Moff Disra and Grodin Tierce knew
that the Tyrannic was cloaked and hiding near Bothawui. (BW, SOP, IJ, VOF, IR)

outdated, landspeeder for his travels to and from the city of Lurark, where he did most of his business. His landspeeder was
appropriated by Wraith Squadron, during their attempt to infiltrate the Binring Biomedical facility in Lurark, because thet had landed well
outside the city's limits and needed transportation. His obsession with saving money had cost him his first wife, but one of his daughters
understood it and worked to inherit the business from him. (SOC)

Esau’s Ridge
this area of deep erosion is found on the planet Tholatin. A thousand meters in length and more than a hundred meters deep, the Ridge
is a thin crevasse through a towering rock wall. A group of enterprising smugglers established a base there, digging out a series of
catacombs for living quarters, repair bays, and hangars. The Ridge became an exclusive sanctuary for those elite veterans of the trade
who were well-connected rather than well-heeled. It was here that Chewbacca gathered information on the Black Fleet Crisis, as well
as the possible whereabouts of Han Solo, following the aborted Test of Ascension for his son, Lumpawarump. (TT)

this planet was known as the homeworld of the borcatu species of scavenger. (COG)
Escalation
this Yuuzhan Vong ritual was performed whenever a subaltern acted with bravery and skill, overcoming their enemy and achieving
greater good for the Yuuzhan Vong. During the ritual, a subaltern was forced to submit their body to an implanter, which cut open their
shoulders and placed a piece of surge-coral at the joint. The blood which flowed from the wounds was collected and given as a sacrifice
to the Yuuzhan Vong gods, and the surge-coral became a symbol of the Yuuzhan Vong’s escalation. Once the ritual was over, the
subaltern was promoted to a position of command and given their own ship to lead into battle. (JE)

Ession
this planet, the fourth in the Lucaya System of the Corporate Sector, was settled some 4,000 years before the Battle of Endor. Since
that time, it evolved into a major center of industrial manufacturing, and managed to remain neutral during the Galactic Civil War. The
warlord Zsinj had built the Pakkerd Light Transport company on the planet, building TIE Fighters for use in his war machine, and sent
the Night Caller - under the control of Wraith Squadron - to protect the Implacable while it receives the first shipment of new starfighters.
However, the New Republic managed to get three squadrons of X-Wings to the planet aboard the Blood Nest, and was able to knock
out the Pakkerd plant before the TIEs could launch. The Republic also managed to take out the Implacable. (WS)

Eternity Crystal
part of a fantastic ruse concocted by Darth Vader to lure Leia Organa into his clutches, this wondrous stone, created by the Jerni
millennia before the rise of the New Order, was rumored to allow the user to travel through time. Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa tried
to recover the crystal to aid the Alliance, but were captured on Jerne by Ryko Vant. They had hoped to use the stone to return to the
Old Republic and prevent the rise of Emperor Palpatine and the destruction of Alderaan, much as Vader had predicted. His forced were
attacked by Meeka Reen's guerillas, who took Luke and Leia as their own prisoners. They learned that the crystal was housed on
Adony Station, and raced to recover it before Darth Vader could beat them to it. Unfortunately, Vader had rigged the vault to explode
when opened, in an effort to kill Luke and Leia. The vault exploded, catching all three of them. They managed to escape, but the crystal
and much of Adony Station were destroyed. (CSWDW)

They settled on Etti IV, where they were eventually forced to co-exist with the Corporate Sector Authority's own government. The Etti
were allowed to rule the planet as they wished, but were given CSA directives along the way. (SESB)
Etti IV
a planet in the Corporate Sector which is supposedly open to general trade, Etti IV was originally settled 20,000 years before the Battle
of Hoth by the Etti people. It is the seat of the Corporate Sector Authority's power, but has no exportable resources. It is located on a
major trade route within the Corporate Sector. It is also where Han Solo pays off Ploovo 2-for-1 with a dinko. Etti IV is also one of the
primary entry-point worlds to the Corporate Sector. (HSE, CSA, SESB)

rose through the ranks to become a Commander for the Alliance and, later, the New Republic. When Tycho Celchu was brought to trial
for the death of Corran Horn, the 34-year-old Ettyk was chosen as the state's prosecutor. She took the job immediately, even though
she hadn't prosecuted a case in seven years. Her case against Celchu seemed air-tight, until Corran Horn escaped from the Lusankya
and revealed the traitor within Rogue Squadron was not Celchu. Ettyk dropped the charges and made her apologies to Celchu. (KT)
Eucliptan Morae
this BR-23 Courier was purchased by Aloren Breesa for use by her local rebel cell during the Galactic Civil War. The original plan was

EV-2-E
this Merendata supervisor droid was employed as the ship's overseer aboard the Alliance cruiser Mantan Wanderer. EV-2-E was
nominally in command of the ship's droid pool. (ROE)
EV-4D9
this Merendata EV-series supervisor droid was equipped with the same MDF motivator that caused EV-9D9 to become erratic. This
droid was originally purchased by a group which recognized her malicious quirks and enhanced them, turning the droid into an efficient
interrogation machine. EV-4D9 was later acquired by Ploovo Two-for-One during the Glite-Ven Hostilities, and went to work with Lotas
and HN-TR1 on his Protocol Team. (AIR)
EV-9D9 (Eve-Ninedeenine)
this thin, bullet-headed Merendata Supervisor droid was programmed as a female. It had a number of strange programming quirks and
manufacturing problems that led to EV-9D9's eventual control of her own systems, including a faulty MDF motivator which gave her a
mean streak. One such manufacturing flaw was the addition of a third optic sensor. Later, she rewired herself to become more
self-sufficient and more intelligent. As these changes continued, she grew to wonder what it would be like to have feelings, like an
organic. She continued to rewire herself, in search of the perfect program to allow her the sensation of feelings. She then set out to
wreak havoc across the galaxy, stopping at one time on Cloud City. There, she was emplyed by Lando Calrissian as chief of security,
a position that Lando had not filled due to the tight staffing problem he had just keeping the station operative. She was discovered by
Sarl Random, and sabotaged many of the station's systems and destroyed nearly a quarter of its droids before stealing a Mining Guild
cutter and escaping. She fled, and years later she turned up on Tatooine, in Jabba the Hutt's service as the Chief of Cyborg Operations
for Jabba. She built hreself a workroom under the palace, a place where she continually tortured droids in an effort to feeling their pain
and anguish. There, she discovered that she had feelings of paranoia stemming from her actions throughout the galaxy. These feelings
were heightened when C-3PO and R2-D2 came to the palace and almost willingly accepted their fate. Her fears were realized when
12-4C-41 found her in her personal workshop. The 12-series droid had tracked her from Cloud City, seeking to "balance the equation"
of destruction she had caused. She resigned herself to her fate, and prepared to relish the feelings and sensations brought on by death.
However, 12-4C-41 deprived her of it by removing her third optic sensor and her pain simulator. He then released all of her captives,
and they dismembered her until she was no longer functional. (ROTJ, TJP, AIR)
EV-9D92
this second generation administrative droid was descended from the prototype EV-9D9. He headed the droid torture chamber on Telti,
which was run by Brakiss. EV-9D92 was said to be twice as ruthless as its predecessor, a fact not lost on Cole Fardreamer, who was
brought to EV-9D92 when Brakiss caught him on Telti. Cole managed to escape with the help fo R2-D2 and C-3PO, who had rallied the
other droids against not only EV-9D92, but the Red Terror as well. (TNR)

the former leader of the Max Rebo band, Evar Orvus was the band's Letaki headsman. It was Orbus who bought Droopy McCool, then
Snit, and added him to the band. When the band was hired to perform in Mos Eisley, the local Bith band intercepted them at the
spaceport and attempted to hijack them. Evar became angry, and tried to kill the Bith. He used a blaster that he had hidden in a false
tentacle, but only managed to get the band into more trouble. In the ensuing firefight, Evar Orbus was killed by a stray blaster bolt.

Evazan
Evazan was wanted in 12 or more star systems for the deaths of his patients. Evazan was a self-styled doctor, and offered to help
many people by offering inexpensive surgery. Although no one know if Evazan ever obtained a true doctoral degree, his movement
from planet to planet helped him gain more and more victims. Evazan was searching for immortality, and was hoping that his patient's
insides would point him on a path to discover it. This pursuit of immortaility earned him the nickname Doctor Death, among others. He
hooked up with Ponda Baba around this time. His legacy of victims led him to be pursued by Jodo Kast, who nearly caught up to him in
the Corellia System. Evazan managed to escape, but not before one of Jodo Kast's blaster shots caught him in the face. Evazan was
scarred for life. Evazan and Ponda Baba fled Corellia to hide out on Tatooine, where he set up the Cutting Edge Boutique. Evazan used
the boutique to continue his search for immortality until he encountered Luke Skywalker in the Mos Eisley cantina. They tried to bully
the youth into a fight, but found themselves on the wrong side of Obi-Wan Kenobi's lightsaber. After he and Ponda Baba barely
survived, Evazan made a breakthrough: he believed that the mind, not the body, was the key to immortality. He and Ponda Baba fled to
Ando, where Ponda Baba helped set Evazan up in a large castle laboratory, under the assumption that Ponda Baba would be the first
beneficiary of Evazan's new mind-transferrence technique. Evazan used a stolen Imperial transmogrifier to transfer the mind of one
individual to another, discarding the old body and the replaced mind. His device worked, but in reverse, displacing Ponda Baba's mind
with that of an Andoan senator. Evazan then went to work for Borborygmus Gog, hoping to gain information from Project Starscream.
Shortly after that project was broken up by the Shi'ido Hoole, Evazan was pursued by Boba Fett himself. The bounty hunter caught up
to Evazan on the planet Necropolis and executed him while he was holding Zak Arranda hostage. Pylum required that Fett leave
Evazan's body behind, in hopes of holding off the Curse of Sycorax, and Fett agreed, but held them all responsible if he never collected
the full bounty. Unknown to them all, Evazan had injected himself with a megadose of his own reanimation serum, and he eventually
returned to life. However, the serum only worked well on recently-dead bodies. The longer the body stayed dead before being injected,
the less likely it was to survive reanimation. Evazan nearly completed his work, but was stopped by the zombie Kairn. Evazan tried to
eliminate Hoole, Zak, and Tash, but Kairn refused to see his friends killed. He used the anti-serum created by D-V9 to kill the zombie
army Evazan had created, then was killed himself when the potion touched him. Boba Fett then used the potion to eliminate Evazan
once and for all. (MTS, TME, GOF2)

Evocar
a huge planet in the Y'Toub system, it was the natural home of the Evocii race until it was discovered by the Hutts as they fled Varl.
Once the Hutts took over, they renamed the planet Nal Hutta. (DESB)
Evocii
this race of primitive humanoids evolved on the planet Evocar, and were content with their feudal society. When the Hutts arrived and
began trading them technology for the use of land, the Evocii were captivated by the new things the Hutts brought. They were so enrapt
with the technology that they failed to see that the Hutts were buying the planet out from underneath them. By the time they realized
their error, it was too late. The Hutts had moved in, built their palaces and theme parks, and renamed the planet Nal Hutta. The Evocii
were given temporary refuge on the planet's fifth moon, then renamed to Nar Shaddaa, but the Hutts treated them as little more than
slaves. The Evocii, thus robbed of their heritage and their homes, devolved in the depths of the spaceport. (DESB)
Evolution Droid
developed by X0-X1 after the droid was installed in Cloud City's main computer core by Doctor Vreen, these small droids were created
to assist in transforming organic lifeforms into metallic automata. X0-X1 demanded that Vreen conscript the scientists as Bioniip
Laboratories to construct them, and began transforming Vreen himself in order to add credence to its threats. They were also known as
E-droids, and were microscopic in size. X0-X1 devised them to manipulate matter at the atomic level, modifying organic chemicals and
transforming them to metals. However, Vreen was able to enlist the help of Walex Blissex, and together they discovered a way to
reprogram these droids and use them to poison X0-X1. (CCC)
Evona
according to Hutt legends, Evona was the sister star to Ardos until it was consumed by a black hole. Hutt legends say that Ardos was in
love with Evona, which was a sister star that made up a binary system. The two lovers had many children, which were the various
planets of the system. When Evona was sucked into a black hole along with several planets, Ardos became angry and miserable at the
loss of his loved ones. Ardos self-destructed, throwing off a huge radioactive mantle of gas, and reducing itself to a white dwarf. The
ejection of radioactive matter destroyed many of the remaining planets, leaving only the Hutt homeworld of Varl. Scientists from the Old
Republic and Empire believe that this story is a mere legend, and that the Hutt's destroyed much of their system in an ancient civil war.

puzzles. They worship a religion based on the legends of spirits living in the moon's giant trees. (ROTJ, EA)
Ewyrin
an alien student of the Force, Ewyrin nearly succumbed to the Dark Side on Dantooine. (RC)
Ewwen
Ido's brother, Ewwen held the position of Mor Glayyd when Han Solo and Fiolla were trying to unravel the Corporate Sector Authority's
slavery ring. He was named the Mor Glayyd after his father was poisoned a month or so before Han and Fiolla arrived, as part of the
Corporate Sector Authority's plot to cover up their slavery ring. Ewwen has the red-brown henna-colored hair which runs in his family,
but is younger and shorter than his sister. The other Mors wanted him brought down, in an effort to reduce the Glayyd clan's power.
The Corporate Sector Authority wanted him removed so that he could not implicate them in the slavery ring. So, a plot was put together
in which a seasoned gunman named Gallandro, posing as an offworld visitor while working for the Corporate Sector Authority, tried to
win Ido's favor at a reception. He feigned anger, and struck her on the face. This was all a plot to goad her brother into a death-duel.
Ewwen either had to step down or fight. Either option was preferable to his maintaining the position of Mor Glayyd and spilling the
beans on the Corporate Sector Authority's slavery ring. Fortunately, Han Solo intervened on Ewwen's part and made Gallandro back
down. Ewwen then told Han and Fiolla everything he knew about the slavery ring. (HSR)
EX-F

Exaltation
this pseudo-religious event was concocted by the Hutts and the t’landa Til, for use in maintaining a calm slave-labor pool on Ylesia.
Described to pilgrims as contact with the Oneness, the Exaltation was actually a physical manifestation performed by the t’landa Til.
These creatures were able to use a throat pouch to inhale air and expel it in sonic vibrations. The t’landa Til could manipulate the
wavelength and force of the vibrations by forcing air over cilia in the pouch, creating inaudible waves that affected the brains of other
sentients. In reality, male t’landa Til use the process to stir females into mating readiness when they are in heat. The Exaltation
revolved around the pilgrims receiving intense waves of pleasure and serenity from a t’landa Til priest. Over time, the pilgrims became
addicted to the Exaltation, and required it every day in order to continue their lives. The Hutts and the t’landa Til were more than happy
to oblige, for it kept the pilgrims blind to the true nature of the work they performed. However, it was sometimes boring for them, since
the males got no pleasure out of it themselves. (TPS)

percent of equipment costs and one-third of fuel and provisions costs. (SWJ8)
Executor
the title given to the seven elite Dark Jedi appointed by Emperor Palpatine to carry out the plans behind Operation Shadow Hand.
(DE2)
Executor
the Super-class Star Destroyer used as Darth Vader's flagship, the Executor was the first in a long line of fearsome warships that
descended from the Imperial-class Star Destroyer. There are many rumors surrounding the construction of the Executor: Many claim
that the ship was built at the shipyards of Fondor, while others contend it was built by an unspecified Kuat Drive Yards facility as
reported in the Imperial Defense Daily. However, the true Executor was built at Fondor. The Kuat ship was built under the same name,
but was later renamed Lusankya when it was launched. Note that the short story Smal Favors claims Vader took command of the
Executor directly from Kuat Drive Yards, which contradicts the Kuat ship's becoming the Lusankya. Equally enigmatic is the Executor’s
construction period. The only real knowledge is that the ship was turned over to Darth Vader between his escape from the Battle of
Yavin and the Battle of Hoth. The plans to the huge ship were stolen by Luke Skywalker and Tanith Shire, but revealed no weaknesses
to Alliance technicians. The ship’s name was given by Vader on its maiden voyage, as it destroyed the Alliance outpost on Laakteen
Depot while en route to Yavin 4. Its first commander was executed by Vader for failing to complete a mission to eradicate the Massassi
Base. It was then placed under the command of Admiral Ozzel, during the search for the Alliance leading up to the Battle of Hoth. It
was Ozzel who brought the fleet out of hyperspace too far out from Hoth, alerting the Alliance to the fleet's presense. Vader executed
Ozzel on the spot, and promoted Captain Piett to Admiral, and commander of the ship. Following a number of victories over the
Alliance, the Executor was finally destroyed during the Battle of Endor, when a concerted attack by Alliance pilots disabled the ship.
Without steering and navigation, it plowed into the surface of the second Death Star and exploded. (ESB, ROTJ, CSW, DESB, BW,

Exocron
this world is the primary planet in the Exocron System, located in the Kathol Outback and hidden within a gas cloud. Much of the
population of the Outback is unaware of the existence of Exocron, since it is located within a nebula of gases that interfere with most
sensor systems. Most star maps of the Outback fail to show Exocron, which is just as well for the planet's inhabitants. The planet was
originally settled by colonists of the Cabal, who fled the hypocrisy and "plastic society" of the Core Worlds during the early time of the
Old Republic to find the world of Exo. Their ship, the Exocros Cabal, was damaged in an asteroid storm, and wandered the galaxy until
it found Exocron. The planet was named for their ship, and the colonists destroyed their ship and set up a guardian force to keep it safe
for future use. In the meantime, the majority of the colonists began living off the land and keeping to themselves. The guardians
became known as the Devisors, and became the upper of two social castes. Any new technology had to be approved by the Devisors
before it could be made available for general use. The splitting of the social structure was not easy, though, and many small battles
erupted between factions who wanted more control or more freedom. A series of unification wars swept the planet in the years just prior
to the Battle of Yavin, re-establishing the position of the Devisors. Jorj Car’das retired to Exocron after running into the Aing-Tii monks.
(SOP, KO)
Exocros Cabal
this ancient colony ship was commissioned by Deamos Na-Coth and The Cabal to search for the legendary planet of Exo. The colonists
consisted of some 2,000 beings whose families believed deeply in Na-Coth's writings and teachings. When the ship emerged from
hyperspace into a stray asteroid storm, it was severely damaged. The captain and much of the crew were killed, and the colonists
splintered along varying interpretations of Na-Coth's writings. The ship continued to function, though, and was pursued by pirates.
Finally, the surviving engineers aboard took control of the situation and decided to find a planet that was far from the pirate lanes and
safe enough to live on. They eventually found the planet Exocron, which was named for the ship. (KO)

Exovar, Luskin
this man was considered a living legend by many scouts, explorers, and adventurers. Born on Lessuris, he joined the Scout Service in
his early teens and made a name for himself by discovering entire sectors of unknown space. His travels became the fodder for a
number of tall tales, although these were often beyond the actual truth of the matter. Exovar eventually retired to Neftali, where he went
into busines by opening up Exovar’s Emporium. During the height of the Galactic Civil War, Exovar was considered a little insane, but
he nevertheless could be an incredibly smart and witty friend. (WSV)
Exovar's Emporium
located on the planet Neftali, on the far side of the planet from Cordel Cove, this business was owned and operated by Luskin Exovar.
The most memorable feature of the facility was the head of an Imperial AT-AT which guarded the entrance, taken by Luskin when he
defeated the walker with just a laser cutter. The starship entrance to the Emporium was guarded by Ion Alley,and visiting ships were
parked at Luskin's Landing. Within the Emporium, vistiors were presented with a variety of stores and interesting sights, including
artworks by Furva Keill, armor from both the Imperial Royal Guards and the Thyrsus Sun Guards, and a half-dozen actual Jedi
lightsabers. Visitors to the Emporium were encouraged to leave behind a personal effect, adding to the vast collection of unique items

Expanse, The
this area of Tapani Sector was known for its ore-rich worlds, which were held by the various noble houses. Its capital, and the capital of
Tapani Sector, was based on the planet Procopia. During the height of the New Order, it was estimated that there were 345 nobles
families which made up the population of The Expanse, broken into Houses. There were seven major Houses which were formed from
these families: the greater Houses of Mecetti, Cadriaan, and Melantha; and the lesser Houses of Barnaba, Pelagia, Reena, and
Calipsa. Each House has a certain amount of voting power in the Great Council, depending on their current status. (PGT)
Expansion Region
an area of the galaxy once known for its manufacturing plants and heavy industry under the Old Republic, it was originally an
experimental sector governed by the corporations working in it. Many of the corporations working their began to take liberties with the
worlds they owned, abusing the populace and stripping entire worlds of their natural resources. When word of these atrocities reached
the ears of the Old Republic, control of the area was turned over to the Senate. Many of the corporations balked at this, for it reduced
the role of the corporations in governing the systems. In order to placate the corporations, the Old Republic set aside a group of
uninhabited systems in the Region for use by the corporations, and thus the Corporate Sector was born. This area of the galaxy was
responsible for much of the growth experienced in The Slice. It has been in an economic decline ever since, although the Corporate
Sector continues to bring in huge profits. (RPG, CSA)

Explorer
1) this was Hydrospeare’s submergible exploration vehicle. The Explorer was designed at the request of the Empire, which was looking
for an amphibious assault vehicle. The Hydrospeare design was unable to create a craft which was swift underwater while mobile on
land, so the Empire funded the underwater piece. The 9.1-meter long craft is only 6 meters in height, and much of that is in the legs.
This meant that the crew space was minimized, making operation close and cramped. Operation of the Explorer required a pilot, co-
pilot, and a pair of gunners. The Explorer was propelled on six legs, and was armed with a turret-mounted Arakyd 5-XV cannon and a
Taim & Bak SC4 cannon. A Siep-Irol SensAll sensor array provided data about the Explorer’s surroundings. (CFG, AIR)
2) the Explorer is a series of 15-meter-long scout ships developed and built in Incom Industries during the height of the New Order. A
highly-automated craft, the Explorer series required a pilot and the exploration crew to operate, and could carry up to five metric tons of
cargo. (WBC)
Explorer
this space boat was owned and operated by the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. It was assigned to the rescue team which was
dispatched to Sedri to recover Mors Odrion. The ship had a wedge-shaped main fuselage, with three combination engines attached at
the rear. These engines served as sublight drives, but could also operate underwater. These engines were supplemented with a system
of repulsorlifts, and a hyperdrive rounded out its multi-environment propulsion systems. It required a crew of 6, and could transport up
to six passengers and 150 metric tons of cargo. The Explorer was armed with a pair of double laser cannons. (BGS)

Extent Systems
manufacturers of interstellar cargo storage shells. (XW)
Extinguishers
this was the name of the Bothan fire fighting team stationed in Drev'starn, on Bothawui. (VOF)
Eyar City
this sewers of this city were populated by a variety of criminals and rebel cells, since they were rarely swept by either Eyar Treatment
Systems or the local law enforcement agency. (HAS)
Eye of Koda
this ancient artifact resembled a heavy, diamond-shaped amulet. It was named for Krin Koda, the scout who found it originally after
stumbling upon a remote planet. The world became known as Koda's World, and after landing he discovered that the native Tempestro
were being killed by a known disease. After administering the antidote and curing the Tempestro, they presented him with the Eye, as
they were unaware of its power. He believed it was a map to a planet which held the ultimate in wealth and power. The small particles
suspended within the amulet do indeed map out the location of a planetary system, although Krin Koda never found it. Several legends
surround the actual benefit to be gained on the planet, the most common of which requires the holder of the Eye to gain entrance to a
temple on the planet and stand on the altar within it. If this is accomplished, the holder will gain the ability to move unseen among his
fellow beings, and gains a mastery over them. Krin Koda himself disappeared before finding the temple, and misfortune seemed to
follow anyone else who found the amulet. A group of scouts found the Eye on Vengler, shortly after the Battle of Endor, and raced the
evil magician Dhar Bullwin to Koda's World to discover its abilities. The map within the Eye leads to Koda's World, and was meant to be
a way for the modern Tempestro to discover the knowledge of their ancient ancestors, should they ever regain the civilization they once
had. The temple contained all the knowledge and power, hidden within its stone walls, and only the most worthy beings would be able
to benefit from them. (GG8)
Eye of Palpatine
the specially-designed starship Eye of Palpatine was basically a huge dreadnaught hidden inside an asteroid-like shell. The moon-sized
craft could travel hyperspace until it neared a target, then drop into normal space. It would then swing into the destination system as a
piece of space debris. It automated firing controls could then unleash a huge gout of firepower, capable of destroying an entire planet.
In overall length, the ship was larger than a Super-class Star Destroyer. As part of the mission of the Eye, special stromtrooper
squadrons were dropped on hostile worlds in the Outer Rim Territories and told to await pick-up by the new starship. They were never
told what to expect, let alone that the Emperor Palpatine himself was the only personal holding all the cards. When the Jedi Knights
discovered Palpatine's plans for the Eye of Palpatine, they sent Callista and another Jedi to disabled the craft. Callista sacrificed herself
to the ship's automated defenses as the other Jedi escaped. She then used the Force to lock herself into the computer's automated
firing controls. In this position, she was able to counteract The Will of the ship and keep it from being reactivated by incoming Imperials
by destroying any approaching ships. Over the years, with Palpatine's involvement as Emperor and his death at Endor, the various
stormtrooper groups died or were killed by indigenous life. Callista remained resident in the firing control section of the computer core.
When Luke Skywalker, Cray Mingla, and Nichos Marr went to the Moonflower Nebula, they activated the Eye's proximity alarms, and
Callista fired on them, stranding them on Pzob. This somehow set off the Eye's seek-and-recover systems, and it wnet about its
preprogrammed mission. However, it could only collect native life-forms, not the stormtroopers it should have. Various life-forms were
then subjected to the Eye's brainwashing indocatrination and turned into stormtroopers. The brainwashing included the implanting of
false images portraying the Jedi Knights as murderers and plunderers. (COJ)
Eye of Shiblizar
this old Ulig Abaha Dimel attack ship was modified by Zlarb and Magg for use as a slave transport. Magg was able to locte it through
Espo channels from his Corporate Sector Authority offices. Measuring 95 meters in length, the Eye of Shiblizar could carry up to 660
metric tons of cargo. Its cargo bays were also capable of carrying up to three pinnaces, which would account for 60 metric tons of
cargo. The ship was modified to including heavier weapons and a more modern drive system. It is armed with ten double-laser
cannons, an ion cannon, and a tractor beam projector. Slaves were never actually delivered with the Eye of Shiblizar, however. Zlarb
and Magg would rendezvous at a pre-arranged location with a ship they would "hijack." The slaves carried in the Eye's holds would be
transferred to the "hijacked" ship, which would be released once it was loaded. Zlarb and Magg would then move off to pick up their
next load of slaves. The Eye of Shiblizar was manned by a crew of 23, with 43 gunners and a security force of 34 troopers. (CSA)
Eye-flower Seaweed
this animated oceanic plant is found on the planet Hapes. The fronds of the plant lay motionless in the water until a boat or animal
stumbles into them. Then, large red flowers seem to bloom from the plant, opening to reveal eyes. The eyes help the primitive mind
locate the intruder, and the seaweed uses the talons which stud its fronds to catch the prey. The seaweed is a cunning hunter, although
its overall intelligence is minimal. (L)
Eye-on-U
this is one of the two major newsgrid services available to the natives of the planet Utharis. It is regularly available on the Utharis
Gridlink. (TT)
Eye-snatcher
this beautiful red bird was native to an unspecified planet in the Ottega System. It was named for its habit of swoping down on a being
and pulling out their eyes with its talons. The bird belived it was simply rescuing its eggs, which were shaped and colored like eyeballs.
The eggs of the eye-snatcher were considered a delicacy whenever they were hard-boiled, a fact which led to increased boldness in
the attacks of eye-snatchers. However, eating a nest full of hard-boiled eye-snatcher eggs often meant consuming a real eyeball or two.

Eyeball
Alliance starfighter pilot slang term for a TIE Fighter. (XWN)
Eyes
this was the nickname of one of the Alliance's most unusual information contacts. It was rumored that Eyes was a member of an alen
race exterminated by Emperor Palpatine and the Empire, although this has never been proven. Of course, it's never been proven
because no other member of Eyes' species has ever been encountered, and he wasn't telling. Whatever the case, Eyes appears to be
a humanoid creature whose thin body is topped with a thick stalk from which protrude more than twenty eye-stalks. Each stalk has a
fully-functioning eyeball in its socket, and Eyes can view a complete 360-degree area at one time. Eyes lived in the Snakes' Den area
of Camden, spending much of his time at the Jade Simian. There, he (although no one has ever determined Eyes' exact sex) brokers
information which he usually then sells to the Alliance. Eyes maintained his own personal grudge against the Empire, and it was
rumored that he also had an affinity with the Force. It is known that Eyes used his mysterious abilities to hunt down and kill an Imperial
customs officer in cold blood. (CRO)

Eyvind
a moisture farmer on Tatooine, he toiled the air currents about the same time as Owen Lars and Ariq Joanson. Eyvind felt that Ariq's
beliefs in a peaceful human-Jawa-Sand Person existence were foolish. When Eyvind became engaged to Ariela, she helped Eyvind
understand Ariq's dreams a little better, and Eyvind allowed Ariq to invite some Jawas to the wedding. The two were married on the
same day that Imperial stormtroopers destroyed a Jawa sandcrawler and the Lars homestead in search of R2-D2 and C-3PO. The
Jawas were grateful for the invitation, and brought a great many gifts. Unfortunately, a group of young Sand People out to prove their

surroundings. This has allowed them to evade Imperial pursuit on the various worlds they fled to, such as Teyr and Atzerri. Most of the
Fallanassi had relocated to planets in the Koornacht Cluster, and were subjected to the executions of the Yevetha during the Black
Fleet Crisis. A few realized the danger, and sent the Star Morning to recover any and all survivors. Following the Battle of N’zoth, the

Falleen
1) the homeworld of the Falleen race. Darth Vader once set up a bacteriological research outpost on the planet. When a
highly-destructive bacterium got loose, Vader acted without remorse. He ordered his ships in orbit to raze the laboratory and the city
surrounding it. Vader wiped out the bacterium, along with an entire city and over two hundred thousand Falleen. Among the dead were
Prince Xizor's parents, a brother and two sisters, and three uncles. Decades later, Falleen fell to the Yuuzhan Vong, shortly after the
destruction of the Fondor shipyards and Hosk Station. (SE, MA, BP)
2) a reptilian alien race characterized by their cool, calculating demeanor. They despised mammalian races as inferior to their cold,
reptilian cousins. They were covered with small scales, and often had a topknot of hair on their heads. Their scales change color with
their emotions, and they exude intense pheromones when they want to. The males use these pheromones to attract females. The
Falleen are humanoid in stature, and have clawed fingers and toes. Their ancestors lived in the water, and most Falleen litters are
birthed in the water. They have evolved into what some consider the most beautiful of all humanoid races. As a people, the Falleen
existed in a feudal society, with noble houses ruling over lower classes of artisans, workers, and slaves. Rather than become wrapped
up in learning about the galaxy at large, the Falleen chose to remain introverted and refine their already "superior" culture. Then, about
ten years before the Battle of Hoth, Darth Vader eliminated a great portion of the Falleen population in order to stop the spread of a
bioweapon which had been tested on the planet and had been set free. In reaction to these murders, the Falleen withdrew even further
from the galactic community. After the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, the Falleen were forced to flee the alien invaders, who
subjugated their homeworld shortly after the Battle of Fondor. (SE, AE, BP)
Falleen's Fist
Prince Xizor's personal skyhook on Coruscant, it was destroyed during the space battle over Coruscant between Xizor's forces trying

escape. Vader opened fire on Xizor's skyhook when Xizor failed to call in his ships. It is believed that Xizor was killed on the skyhook.

Fallone, Hahz
depending on who you talked to, this man was known as a shrewd businessman or a consummate crook. He had strong ties to the
business community in Iritsa, on the planet Chazwa, and was suspected of being the leader of a criminal organization. During the
height of the Galactic Civil War, he was rumored to have possession of the Black Sphere, and a bounty was placed on its return. The
natives of Eckless had been subjugated by Fallone's forces, and forced to mine ores and minerals for Fallone's own use. The natives
rebelled, and managed to unseat Fallone's position of power. However, Fallone stole the Black Sphere before he left the planet and fled
back to Chazwa. He used the money he obtained from the sale of the ores and minerals to bankroll his operations on Chazwa, and
grew steadily richer. However, he was pursued to Chazwa by Rusha and a group of bounty hunters searching for the Black Sphere.
During the hunt, it was revealed that Fallone had used ships and men from Jorga Sune's group to work on Eckless, under a truce which
Fallone reneged on as soon as he had the Black Sphere. When Fallone learned that Rusha was looking for him, he used her bounty on

headquarters deep in the icy crust of the planet. The planet was continually shrouded in a white, icy mist that was formed from the
ejecta of hundreds of icy volcanoes. The mists reflected all light from space, making the planet appear to be a solid ball of white. The
mists also disrupted communications, so the Alliance established a listening post on the planet's only moon. The mists themselves are
poisonous to breathe, being laden with sulfur and other chemicals from the volcanoes. The Alliance brought the captured Black Ice to
Fangol, unaware that the Empire had placed a homing beacon on the ship. The Alliance was forced to evacuate the base, but Lawra

Far Outsiders
this was the Ferroan name for the alien race which attacked the planet Zonama Sekot shortly after the Battle of Naboo. The Far
Outsiders seemed to have no connection to the Force, and despite the fact that they flew in starships which were oragnic in nature and
similar to Sekotan starships, the planet rejected them as did the Magister. They retailated by attacking the planet from orbit, leaving
much of the southern hemisphere in ruins. The Jedi Knight Vergere gave herself up to the Far Outsiders, in an effort to stop the
bombardment. The Far Outsiders agreed to Vergere's plan, and left the planet with her. A year later, Zonama Sekot was attacked by

this young man was a native of the planet Tatooine, and grew up after Luke Skywalker had become a hero of the Alliance. Like many
youths of his time, he grew up hoping to follow in Luke's footsteps. He began tinkering with landspeeders and skyhoppers, making a
name for himself as a repairman. His dreams would have died, when he learned that much of Luke's success was due to the Force,
except for the taunts he continually received from his peers. Their jeers only hardened his resolve, and he left Tatooine to become a
mechanic for the New Republic on Coruscant. His abilities quickly earned him the respect and admiration of his superiors, and he was
generally regarded as being on par with the Kloperians. It was Cole who was spotted by Skywalker, when he came to investigate the
status of his X-Wing. Finding it dismantled for refitting, Luke demanded the Cole put it back together. In doing so, Cole discovered a
detonation device in the new flight computer. Taking the initiative, Cole investigated all of the X-Wings, including the newer models.
Similar detonation devices were in all of the New Republic's X-Wings, and despite the lack of support from the Kloperians, Cole
persisted. He drew the attention of Wedge Antilles, who understood what Cole had discovered, and allowed Cole to continue his
investigation. However, he became entangled with R2-D2 and C-3PO, and found himself in a stolen transport destined for Telti. It was
there that he discovered Brakiss' droid factory, and the detonators being installed within them. He managed to get a message back to
the New Republic, and got them to deactivate their droids. With the help of R2-D2 and C-3PO, he was able to drive Brakiss's droid
troops away and forced Brakiss off Telti, eliminating the threat of more rigged droids. (TNR)

agents to transport droids, and during the trip he sabotaged their ship. He then planned to deliver the ship to the Iskalloni, so that they
could raid its databanks of the locations of New Republic worlds. The Iskalloni could then move in and enslave the worlds, after
enslaving the agents. However, Farege was double-crossed by the Iskalloni, which enslaved him as soon as they found the New
Republic ship. Seeing that he had been used, Farege resisted long enough to warn the agents of the impending Iskalloni attack. He
was later rescued by the agents, and the Iskalloni mutagen was removed from his system. (TSK)

Shashay space singer known as Crying Dawn Sunger, hoping to break the fragile alliance between the Shashay and the Alliance itself.
The plan, implemented with information gathered by his brother, Nak, involved blaming the Alliance for the kidnapping of Crying Dawn
Singer. However, Braig’s ambitions went beyond this simple plan. He also prepared false holovids which he hoped would discredit
Rayter Sector’s Moff, Nile Owen, and place Braig himself into the office. However, Moff Owen discovered Nak’s part in the plan, and
executed him. Shortly afterward, Braig went mad. A group of Alliance agents were able to intercept Braig before Owen got to him, and

a plot to discredit the Alliance and bring favor upon themselves from Moff Owen. However, Braig aspired to more than just simple
recognition from the Moff, and tried to discredit the Moff himself. A further plan was devised, with a holo-transmission showing Nak
publicly proclaiming Owen’s lack of feeling for the Shashay. Owen intercepted the transmission, and executed Nak for his part in the
plan. (TA)

Alliance. However, the salary she pulled down as a lowly liaison officer more than made up for her personal desires. She also knew that
her second-in-command, Brezzic Marr, was a staunch Imperial who would probably track her down if she defected. (WSV)

Feed-reptile
this generic term refers to any Adumari reptile bred and raised for its meat. They are generally quite docile. (SOA)
Feeder
this small, mobile plant is native to the planet Binaros. They stand about a half-meter tall, and move about on thick, fleshy tendrils. The
have an extendable sac in their midsection, which is used to hold water. They have a needle-like appendage that is used to extract
water from any source. These appendages can also be used in defense, and the feeder is capable of consuming a target’s blood to
obtain sustenance. The mobile plants are actually drones which are spawned to bring food to a mother plant, but they have no true
intelligence. They act solely on environmental stimuli. The mother plant is a noturnal bloomer, and is incapable of movement. The
mother is quite large, appearing to be a ball-shaped mouth filled with tooth-like thorns. It is anchored to the gorund by six short taproots
and a network of thinner roots. The plant has an averge life cycle of about two standard weeks. (KO)

Feeorin
this humanoid race inhabited several worlds in the Outer Rim Territories, but were often viewed by other settlers as unwanted
scavengers. The Feeorin were forced to abandon their homeworld many millennia before the Battle of Naboo, but many of their colony
ships never made it to their destinations. At the time of the Battle of Naboo, less than a million Feeorin were known to exist in the
galaxy. Their skin coloration varied, from jet black to white and several colors in between. Green, yellow, and blue skinned Feeorin
were the most common. Feeorin lacked hair, but had a collection of thick tendrils hanging from the back of their skulls. (SFT)
Feethek
this Shashay term means “I’m leaving.” (TA)
Fef
a moderately large planet orbiting a yellow-orange star, Fef has a thick, hot atmosphere which supports a wide variety of life. Most of
the lifeforms have short lifespans, though. The huge trees that make up Fef's forests grow to over 100 meters in height in 20-30 years,
then die and decompose in a matter of weeks. Fef is the homeworld of the swarming insectoid Fefze. (GG4)
Fefze
an insectoid race native to the planet Fef, they are one of the truest forms of hive intelligence found in the galaxy. They exist in group
minds of 10-100 individuals, sometimes called swarms. These swarms are the primary building block of Fefze society, and when
considered as a swarm, the Fefze are are quite intelligent. However, taken individually, Fefze are no more intelligent than any other
insect. Individuals known enough to eat, avoid danger, and reproduce. The Fefze eat by covering their food - any organic material is
edible to them - with a digestive acid, then lap up the resulting paste. This acid is also used as a defense mechanism, because a Fefze
can regurgitate the paste when attacked and flee. The attacking creature usually stops to eat the paste, rather than expend energy
chasing the Fefze. Fefze individuals have limited dexterity. Fefze swarms are created from the individuals born from a single egg
globule, which contains hatchlings from several different parents. A swarm's highest priority is recruiting new hatchlings, and a given
swarm can exist for thousands of years this way. New hatchlings are obtained during the Fefze dance swarm, and tourists often come
to Fef to view it. (GG4)
Fefze Beetle
a giant beetle that inhabits mountainous planets, the fefze beetle is often hunted for sport. They often hunt in packs. A mutated species
of fefze beetle was the only living creature found on the surface of the planet Duro, during the early years of the New Republic. This
mutation had both an exoskeleton and an internal skeleton, giving it the ability to grow to incredible sizes. (GDV, MMY, BP)
Fehern
this planet is the homeworld of the Eddel race. During the height of the Old Republic, Eddel starships regularly plied the expanses of

Fek'ra, Nilya
this tall, black-haired woman was one of the most powerful criminal figures on the planet Cotellier. Cunning and devious, Fek'ra is a
beautiful woman with deep green eyes. She worked for a mysterious crimelord, although she steadily put together enough knowledge
and resources to start her own operation should fate allow her the opportunity. She was one of Yosger's chief rivals, and hoped to
obtain the data stored in the computer systems of the Smoking Blaster before Yosger did. She managed to get the crew of the Smoking
Blaster under her control and obtained the location of Yosger's base on Carz. She then paid the mercenary crew to take her to Carz
and apprehend Yosger. (GMH)
Fel, Ajai
this woman was Soontir Fel's sister-in-law, and the mother of Fyric Fel. She felt that Fyric was kidnapped in order to force the Fels to
provide information on the whereabouts of Wynssa Starflare, the wife of Baron Soontir Fel. Her husband, Todr, helped bring down the
kidnappers, who were led by Ilir Post, when he shot Post in the head. Corran Horn and Iella Wessiri, along with Wes Janson, Hobbie
Klivian, and Plourr Ilo had cornered Post at his estate. Once Fyric was rescued, Todr and Ajai agreed to seek santuary with the New
Republic, and fled Corellia with the Rogue Squadron pilots. (XWFT)
Fel, Fyric
this two-year-old was the nephew of Soontir Fel. He was kidnapped from the Fel estate, just outside Coronet City on the planet Corellia,
shortly after the Battle of Brentaal, and Corran Horn was dispatched to investigate. Fyric's mother Ajai believed he was kidnapped in
order to get the Fel's to provide information on the whereabouts of Wynssa Starflare. He intercepted Wes Janson, Hobbie Klivian, and
Plourr Ilo when the arrived at the Fel estate, hoping to gather information on the whereabouts of Wynssa Starflare, who was actually
Wedge Antilles' sister, Syal. Kirtan Loor took over the investigation, and tried to take the Rogue Squadron pilots in for questioning. Horn
let the pilots go, but had to save them when they tried to negotiate with the kidnappers, whom he identified as a group led by Ilir Post.
Fyric was eventually rescued, when Todr Fel shot Post in the head and then Plourr caught Fyric before he could fall. (XWFT)
Fel, Jagged
this ruggedly handsome young man was revealed to be the son of Baron Soontir Fel and Syal Antilles, during the Yuuzhan Vong
invasion of the galaxy. He was distinguished by his pale green eyes and a scar which started above his right eye and ran over his skull.
The hair over the scar was white, contrasting with rest of his jet-black hair.Jagged grew up among the Chiss, being accepted by them
ass one of their own, and he strove to ensure that he met their lofty expectations. At the Battle of Garqi, Fel and his Spike Squadron of
Chiss were part of the fleet assembled by Admiral Pellaeon to support the New Republic. Their incredible skill helped turn back the
Yuuzhan Vong forces. At the time, he held the rank of Colonel. When the battle group reported back to the New Republic leadership,
Jagged Fel was asked by his uncle, Wedge Antilles, to accompany them. Spike Force later assisted the New Republic at the Battle of
Ithor. In the wake of the battle, Fel sent two squadrons of Chiss pilots back to report on the Yuuzhan Vong to his father, while Jagged
himself remained behind as a liaison to Rogue Squadron. (DTR)
Fel, Soontir
one of the youngest Imperial Navy officers to obtain the rank of Captain and command a ship, Fel was everything one would expect
from a recruiting poster. Broad-shouldered and handsome from years of working as a farmer, Fel was a native of Corellia and had
come through the ranks as a decorated and legendary TIE Fighter pilot. However, he did not enter the Imperial Academy willingly.
Instead, he was bribed into go in order to stop him from testifying against Ilir Post, on the threat that his father would be charged with a
flurry of minor crimes if he didn't go. This took him away from the farming that he loved so much, but he was determined to make the
best of the situation. Fel was a contemporary of Han Solo and Loka Hask while at the Carida Academy, regularly defeating Hask while
often challenging Solo. After graduating with honors as his class' salutatorian, Fel earned command of the Pride of the Senate shortly
before the Battle of Nar Shaddaa, and was quite puzzled by Admiral Greelanx’s battle plans. They did not allow for any flexibility during
the battle, while executing the Base Delta Zero order to the letter. Fel had never participated in such an exercise, and questioned the
wisdom of decimating Nar Shaddaa. However, the battle was quickly upon him, and the minimal battle plan outlined by Greelanx -
coupled with the surprising ability of the smugglers to damage the Imperial fleet - soon resulted an Imperial retreat. Fel, appalled at the
losses and at Greelanx’s orders to retreat, remained behind to retrieve as many of his pilots as he could before redezvousing with the
fleet. Greelanx was angry with Fel’s insubordination, but Fel resolved to report Greelanx’s poor planning to his superiors. He was
assigned to the 37th Imperial Fighter Wing before transferring to Prefsbelt IV as a flight instructor. After receiving high honors, Fel
actually was responsible for the training of Tycho Celchu, Biggs Darklighter, and Hobbie Klivian. He was offered a position in Moff
st
Tarkin's bodyguard unit by Tarkin himself, but the defection of Biggs Darklighter and Derek Klivian relegated Fel to the 181 Imperial
Fighter Group, which was under the command of Evir Derricote. They scored a hollow victory at Ord Biniir, on the same day as the
Battle of Yavin, but Fel was given a commendation on Coruscant in an effort to bolster Imperial morale. There, he met Wynssa
Starflare, and they fell deeply in love. Shortly afterward, Fel became known to Ysanne Isard, who challenged his loyalty by trying to
seduce him. He refused, and although she praised his loyalty, she also hated him. Fel saw through Isard's ploy and into the heart of the
Empire, and didn't like what he saw. He also saw that the Emperor's non-human bias was only as good as the air around it, once
Thrawn began to rise through the ranks. Fel found himself admiring Thrawn's plans for the ambush which destroyed the Alliance's
supply convoy near Derra IV, but could not reconcile Palpatine's hypocrisy. Although he was promoted to Colonel and given command
st
of the entire 181 Fighter Group, Fel became disheartened with the Empire. Ysanne Isard's sacrifice of an entire fighter wing to lure
st
Rogue Squadron to Brentaal was an action he couldn't reconcile in his own mind. After the 181 was sent to Brentaal to help defend
the world - more of an exercise to bring down the Cabal that to save the planet - Fel decided that enough was enough. When the New
Republic had defeated the Imperials, Fel was captured when Colonel Salm hit his Interceptor with an ion cannon blast, rendering his
fighter inoperative. Shortly before the Battle of Brentaal, he had arranged for Wynssa - now his wife - to disappear. He pledged to help
the New Republic if they would help him locate Wynssa, a proposition to which the Republic's Starfighter Command agreed. However,
Fel soon turned his back on the Republic and returned to Imperial service. Wedge Antilles, the real-life brother of Wynssa Starflare,
thought he had encountered Fel again, during the series of skirmishes against the Warlord Zsinj. In reality, though, the Fel he
discovered was Tetran Cowall, and his abilities were augmented with a droid brain in several of his wingmate's TIE Interceptors. It was
later learned that Fel had joined the forces aligned with Grand Admiral Thrawn, and he spent the next several years working with the
true Imperial leadership to eliminate the various warlords who claimed Imperial rights. He lost an eye in the final battle of his career, and
retired to work with Voss Parck as a commander at the Hand of Thrawn compound on Nirauan. Fel was also the "parent" of a number
of clones developed at Thrawn's request. The clones were dispatched to several sleeper cells - excellent pilots awaiting Thrawn's
reactivation codes. The clones were flash-imprinted with much of Fel's ability as a pilot and warrior, but without his personality.
However, many groups managed to retain his love of the open air and farming, and decided not to heed the recall which came ten
years after Thrawn's death. Shortly after the Battle of Garqi, it was revealed that Soontir and Syal had had five children together,
including a son, Jagged, who eventually rose to power in the Imperial Remnant's military. (THG, HXW, VOF, IF, MBF, XWES, DTR)
Fel, Todr
this man was Soontir Fel's younger brother. He allowed his wife, Ajai, to contact the Rogue Squadron pilots who were on Corellia to
locate Wynssa Starflare, on the off-chance that they could be persuaded to help find his young son, Fyric. Fyric had been kidnapped by
Ilir Post, and was being held for ransom. When the Rogues, along with Corran Horn and Iella Wessiri of the Corellian Security Force,
cornered Post at his estate, Todr's ploy paid off. He knew that Post would kill his son, so he took a chance and shot at Post. The blast
took Post between the eyes, killing him instantly. However, Post dropped Fyric from a second-story window as he died. Luckily, Plourr
Ilo caught Fyric before he could hit the ground. Todr and his famaily fled Corellia with the Rogues, hoping to find safety with Soontir and
the New Republic. (XWFT)

thermal detonator, until Isis gave in and paid him. (TJP, EGC, GG10)
Feldt
this was the primary continent found on the planet Nishr, and was the site of the main base of the Alliance's Nishr Taskforce. (ROE)
Feleea
this Imperial Moff was a rival of Moff Relans, and went rogue after the Battle of Endor. (HR)
Felinx
this is a species of feline creature often kept as a pet by the wealthiest of the galaxy’s beings. Breeders of felinx continually inbreed
each successive generation, and maintain those bloodlines with minimal brain-mass. Thus, the average felinx is little more than a long,
fur-covered body that exists for the physical pleasures of warmth and food. This trait makes them the ideal pet, for they require little
more than regular meals and the warmth of being held. However, certain individuals end up nothing more than automata, and require
bio-stimulation circuit implants to keep them from bumping into walls and chewing their fur off. (MA)
Felis Alverite
this Ropagu was the primary representative of his planet in the Off-worlders’ Quarter starport. He maintained comprehensive databases
on all travelers to and from the starport, and keeps a vigilant eye out for criminals and other violent individuals. Over the years he spent
in the Off-worlders’ Quarter, Alverite developed a sympathy for the Alliance, and was a source of helpful information to the New
Republic during its early years. (TSK)

destroyed as part of Operation Groundquake. (IF)
Fellowship of Kooroo
this quasi-religion emerged as a search for enlightenment, based on the teachings of the spiritual leader Kooroo. To attain true
enlightenment, followers strove to achieve telepathic abilities to communicate. They worshipped and meditated on several Outer Rim
worlds, where there were Shrines of Kooroo placed. These shrines were later claimed to be ancient communications devices by the
reporter Andor Javin, and the Fellowship deeply resented the intrusion and speculation. They put out a deathmark on Javin's head, in
reaction to his reports. (SWJ13)
Felth, Davin
a member of the Desert Sands stormtrooper unit sweeping Mos Eisley in search of R2-D2 and C-3PO. He was trained at the Imperial
facility of Carida, and was among the top recruits in his class. Thus, he was chosen to be one of the first troopers to be assigned to the
new AT-AT project, under General Veers. While on a training mission, Davin discovered that the AT-AT was extremely vulnerable due
to its long legs. He commanded his walker to "kneel" on all four legs, and was able to defeat all training targets. He reported to Veers
that it was possible to "trip" the walker using a cable entwined around its legs, but Veers hid the information in order to advance his own
career. When additional stormtroopers were needed to sweep Tatooine in search of the droids, Davin was quickly moved off the AT-AT
project and into stromtrooper armor. There, he was assigned to Captain Terrik. (It was Davin who said, "Look, sir. Droids." after the
discovery of the droids' escape pod.) However, Davin became increasingly disillusioned with the Empire's regime, having witnessed
first-hand the needless destruction of Jawas and Sand People, as well as the wanton execution of the Lars family. The unnecessary
execution of Het Nkik pushed Davin over the edge, and when his squadron was ordered to keep the Millennium Falcon from leaving
Mos Eisley, Davin shot Terrik in the back, and pretended that he was killed in the crossfire. From then on, he resolved to remain a
stormtrooper in order to feed the Alliance key information about the Empire. It is assumed that one of the first informational transfers
included the weakness of the AT-AT. (TME, EGC)
Feltipern Trevagg
a Gotal who had filled a number of positions over the years, including bounty hunter, Imperial bodyguard, and ship's security officer. He
was working for the City Prefect of the port of Mos Eisley, on Tatooine, as a tax collector when Luke Skywalker and Ben Kenobi booked
passage ot Alderaan. In this position, Feltipern had developed many of the taxes charged to native and transients, including a water tax
and a port passage tax. This passage tax brought him in contact with M'iiyoum Onith, who lost her seat on the passenger liner Tellivar
Lady because she couldn't pay it. Feltipern began lusting for her. He also discerned Kenobi's presence in Mos Eisley by detecting the
Force with his head cones, and sought to sell the information to the Empire. In trying to get M'iiyoum into bed, he failed to recognize
that she was a H'nemthean, and that the female of her species guts her mate with her knife-like tongue. Feltipern was found dead in the
Inn, the morning after the Millennium Falcon blasted out of the spaceport. (TME)

Femon
1) this is a major city found on the planet Gailea, and is the site of the annual Marqua Spas Grand Ball. (SWJ9)
2) this woman served as Dolph's Lieutenant during the early days of his bid for power under the name Kuellar. A strikingly beautiful
woman with long, black hair and pale skin, she used kohl and other substances to mask her features and give her the appearance of
death. Her family was killed when the Eye of Palpatine was awakened after the Battle of Endor. The Eye attacked her homeworld and
destroyed most of the life there. She felt that the New Republic inadequately addressed the threat of the Eye, and held the Republic
responsible for her family's deaths. As Dolph's plans unfolded, Femon chafed at his patience. She felt he was being too soft on the
Republic, and challenged his goals and methods. Her support of Dolph began to fade, and scoffed at his use of the Force. In his anger,
Dolph/Kuellar used the Force to grip her throat and break her neck. (TNR)
Fen'po
this young woman, a native of the planet Dathomir, was a member of the Singing Mountain clan of Force-using women. She was just
learning the ways of Allyan Magic when Luke Skywalker discovered the existence of the Chu'unthor on Dathomir. (CTD)
Fenald
this native of the planet Kuat was Kuat of Kuat’s chief of security during the period of the New Order. Outwardly loyal to the end, Fenald
was secretly in league with Kodir of Kuhlvult and her plans to take control of Kuat Drive Yards. In an intricate plot, he agreed to betray
Kuat to the various ruling families, thereby making way for Kodir to take his place. It was Fenald who arranged – through Nil Posondum
– to have Kodir’s sister Kateel kidnapped. Years later, Kodir began manipulated Kuat of Kuat, hoping to oust him from control of KDY
and take it for herself. Fenald played his part well, and Kuat was unaware of his deceit until the families tried to wrest control of KDY for
themselves. Fenald continued to work behind the scenes for Kodir while she worked for Kuat, furthering her own attempt to gain control
of KDY, until he demanded money in return for keeping her plans a secret. Kodir decided that Fenald had stopped being useful, and slit
his throat in a basck-alley bar. (MA, SLS, HM)

Fenner, Rivoc
this xeno-biologist was credited with the first discovery of the creature known later as Fenner's Rock. It is said that he tripped over the
first one he ever encountered, believing it to be a simple pile of stones. (COG)
Fenner's Rock
named for the xeno-biologist Rivoc Fenner, this unusual creature resembled a collection of lichen- and moss-covered stones. They
subsist on the lichens, moss, and algae which attach to their bodies, moving slowly over real rocks to find food. They lack true limbs,
instead having a pair of appendages which they use to drag themselves along. The mouth of a Fenner’s Rock is filled with huge teeth,
but the teeth are formed from soft cartilage and were ineffective against most creatures. Most scientists believed them to be silent
creartues, but many have observed groupings of Fenner’s Rocks “singing” to each other. The exact purpose behind the sounds is
unknown. These creatures could be found on a number of planets, and were considered a nuisance on some world because they
multiply rapidly, damming up natural waterways and producing semi-toxic bacteria. (COG)

Ferret
this was the name given to the Republic Engineering Corporation reconnaissance vessel manufactured shortly after the death of Grand
Admiral Thrawn. At 28 meters in length, the Ferret recon vessel was coated with sensor-baffling materials and equipped with the latest
in stealth technology, allowing it to enter hostile territory virtually undetected. Its primary mission was to obtain information about enemy
territory without being detected or caught. To allow the Ferret to move quietly at sublight speeds, a unique, baffled drive system was
developed which would allow the ship to move about without leaving any detectable trail for up to an hour. The primary engine system
relies on chemically-generated thrust, further adding to its stealth modes. The Ferret was operated by three linked droid brains, each of
which controlled certain equipment on the ship. The Ferret was lightly armed, with a pair of missile launchers being its only weaponry.

Ferrier, Niles
a master thief, Niles Ferrier was known throughout the galaxy as a starship hijacker. He had a great deal of skill in the use of computer
linkups, and often stole ships by simply reworking a spaceport's duty roster to clear the area when he found a good ship. He was often
accompanied by four or five human smugglers, a Defel wraith, and a Verpine. His passion for carrababba tabac laced with armudu
spice is also widely known, and the unmistakeable combination often announces his presence. He put his starship stealing skills to
good use during Grand Admiral Thrawn's reign of terror, stealing ships and selling them to Thrawn and the Empire for a large profit.
Ferrier later helped Thrawn infiltrate the blossoming smuggler's alliance. (DFR, DFRSB, TLC)

Fett, Boba
Boba Fett was known at one time as the Journeyman Protector Jaster Mereel. There are also rumors that Fett was an extremely
dedicated Imperial stormtrooper who, for reasons known only to him, attacked and killed his superior officer. These rumors have never
been substantiated. What is known is that Jaster Mereel killed a corrupt Protector but was imprisoned for the murder anyway. He was
exiled from the planet Concord Down, and found employment as a bounty hunter, learning the skills that would make him a formidable
adversary in the future. In his travels, Boba Fett acquired a full suit of Mandalorian Shock Trooper armor. The unique weapons systems
of the armor suited a number of purposes, including enhancement of his arsenal as well as increasing the mystique behind his
reputation. He also acquired an old Kuat Systems Engineering Firespray-class ship, which he named Slave I and had heavily modified
at Kuat Drive Yards. Many of the modifications to Slave I were developed by Kuat of Kuat himself, and helped further the design of
other starships. Fett employed the best microsurgeons in the galaxy to remove as many of the pain-sensing nerves from his body. He
also had many of his body’s pleasure sensors eliminated as well. As his proficiency as a bounty hunter grew, so did his reputation. This
led to his being hired by Kud’ar Mub’at, in an intricate plan to eliminate the Bounty Hunters Guild. The plan, masterminded by Prince
Xizor, involved Fett actually joining the Guild, which he had felt was too restrictive in its bylaws. The plan worked, resulting in the
breaking of the Guild into two rival factions. During this time, Fett also discovered the schemes of Kuat of Kuat, and would have
exposed the leader of Kuat Drive Yards if Kuat hadn’t been intent on his own suicide. Fett later became one of the bounty hunters
commissioned by Darth Vader to hunt down the Millennium Falcon. This occurred at about the same time as Jabba The Hutt hired him
to capture Solo. These two commissions fit together perfectly for Boba Fett, who used his knowledge of Han Solo's background to
predict Han's maneuver of floating away with the Avenger's garbage, and tracked the Falcon to Bespin and Cloud City. Boba Fett then
took possession of Han's frozen body and returned to Tatooine, only to be intercepted over the desert world by IG-88. In a brief firefight,
Boba Fett was able to destroy IG-88's ship, but Slave I was so damaged that landing on Tatooine would be impossible. So, Fett
travelled to the Outer Rim world of Zhar, and landed on Gall. There, he was further beset by bounty hunters, including Zuckuss and 4-
LOM, who wanted to steal Solo's body. Fett managed to escape them as well, only to be assaulted by Alliance starfighters from Rogue
Squadron. Fett escaped them as well and transported Solo to Jabba the Hutt, collecting the large bounty on Han's head to go with his
Imperial payment. It was at time that Fett discovered Ree Duptom’s personal starship adrift and Duptom himself dead. He took
possession of the droid in Duptom’s hold and the young woman in his holding cell. The droid contained data on Kuat of Kuat’s plot to
discredit Prince Xizor, and the woman turned out to be Neelah. Jabba then offered him a large sum of money to remain on Tatooine as
his personal bounty hunter. This allowed him to hide Neelah from the rest of the galaxy, but Fett stipulated that he would remain a
freelance bounty hunter on retainer. Although the work was extremely simple for Fett, he believed that there would be a rescue attempt
made on Solo, and he wanted to be there when it happened. After slightly underestimating Leia's disguise as Boussh, Boba Fett's
instincts went into overdrive, and he was ready when Luke Skywalker showed up at Jabba's palace. Unfortunately for Boba Fett, when
Luke, Han, and Chewie were about to be thrown into the Sarlacc pit, Fett's rocket backpack was accidentally activated by the then-blind
Han Solo. Fett careened into the side of Jabba's sail barge and was knocked unconscious. Fett was thought to have been killed in the
Sarlacc’s acid-filled belly, but he managed to set of a series of explosions which destroyed much of the beast and allowed him to
escape. He lay dying in the twin suns of Tatooine until he was discovered by Dengar and Manaroo, who recognized him by the tattered
armor that still clung to his skinless body. Dengar also found Neelah,and took them both to his hideout in the desert. There, with the
help of some of Jabba’s medical droids, Dengar nursed Fett back to health. Once recovered, Boba Fett set out to clear up the situation
with Kuat of Kuat and Neelah. They managed to put all the pieces together, with the help of Balancesheet and Kuat himself, before
Kuat killed himself. After recovering the heavily-damaged Slave I from the Alliance, he limped to Nar Shaddaa and commandeered a
second ship for his use. He designated this ship Slave II, and was again commissioned by the Hutts, this time to kill Solo once and for
all. He almost succeeded at Nar Shaddaa, but was again thwarted. When Han Solo and Princess Leia returned to Nar Shaddaa to take
Vima-Da-Boda into custody, Boba Fett again nearly captured Solo, but Chewbacca overpowered him, ripping off his helmet and igniting
his rocket-pack. Fett careened into the ceiling of the spaceport's lowest levels and was knocked unconscious. It was believed that he
sustained near-fatal head injuries, but Fett returned to action shortly afterward. His spent much of his career tracking down the two
most elusive targets, Han Solo and Rivo Xarran. Fett caught Rivo on Ladarra, but let him live after discovering that Rivo was caring for
a group of children. He later caught Solo on Jubilar,and the two decided that they had been adversaries too long to kill each other, and
they went their separate ways. Boba Fett was portrayed by Jeremy Bulloch in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back and Star Wars:
Return of the Jedi. He was also portrayed by Alen Rosenburg for the The Empire Strikes Back Radio Drama on National Public Radio.

this small tavern was located in Capital City, on Omman, and was owned by the man named Feyodor. One of its most famous
attractions was the cascading waterfall of lights which graced the wall behind the bar. The artwork also served a more devious role, as
each light indicated the presence of a certain smuggler, bounty hunter, or pirate. If the light was on, the individual was in the area and
looking for work. Other lights in the waterfall indicated that certain clients had a job to offer. Color-coding represented need, status, and
occupations required. Blue indicated a veteran, while red was a warning that the individual was a risk. Green meant the being was
available, and white indicated that the being was pratically a living legend. Yellow meant a deal was in progress, but could be broken as
the contract hadn't been signed. (SWJ12)

which is divided up into four Radials (Eastern, Western, Northern, and Southern) and four Rings (Fool's, Sorcerer’s, Traitor's, and
Beast's). Each Radial and Ring has seven Stones. Among the pieces are the Cardinal and the Merchant. When a piece from one player
is captured by another, it disapears in a consuming pillar of fire. Darth Vader once lured Clat the Shamer onto a Firepath game board,
during a match with Lady Dhol. Vader captured Clat on the board, consuming the assassin in flame. He later executed Dhol the same
way, for her part in the deception. (CSWDW)
Firerider
this Starwind-class passenger yacht was owned and operated by Serdo for many years. Ostensibly, Serdo used the ship as a transport
ship, carrying government officials and dignitaries to and from their appointments. In reality, Serdo used these trips to smuggle spice

Firespray-31
a 21.5-meter-long starship that was built for a very short time by Kuat Systems Engineering, the Firespray-31 was built for speed and
stealth. It's design resembles and elephant's head, with the cockpit and cargo area making up the face and trunk, while the engine area
formed the "ears." Two-thirds of the ship's hull area was dedicated to the engines, while accounts for its remarkable speed. It also
points out the ship's lack of popularity, as there was limited cargo space. Over the years, these unique vessels have been seen less
and less, although some smugglers still use them. These ships have been highly modified. One example of a Firespray-3 in use during
the Galactic Civil War was the craft Slave I owned by the bounty hunter Boba Fett. (MTS, EGV)

Fireworm
also known as the Lava Dragon, this creature can survive the intense heat and pressure of the molten lava it lives in. It is armored by
crystallized scales of silicon, and resembles a huge snake with pointed ear tufts made of hard scales. It "breathes" the lava, and is
insulated by air bladders that keep it bouyant in the lava. On Eol Sha, Gantoris tests Luke's motives by making Luke walk across a lava
pit and confront the fireworm living in it. Luke tried to kill it with his lightsaber, but the fireworm's scales only refracted the lightsaber's
beam and deflected it into dozens of smaller light beams. (JS, JASB)
Firil, Sirenas
this bounty hunter teamed up with Chandrex Grenn in an effort to hunt down Pallas Quintell on Kallistas. She was part of a small guild

desert. The black-sheep son of a wealthy Twi’lek family, Olan was a minor crimelord who believed that, following Jabba the Hutt’s
death, he could step in and take control of the Hutt’s criminal empire. He had somehow managed to gain control of the brain walker that
contained Bib Fortuna’s brain, and took great pleasure in the knowledge that Fortuna retained information about Jabba. In order to
obtain the weapons cache, he had to put Huff Darklighter out of business, because Darklighter had learned of its existence. In the midst
of this power struggle, Rogue Squadron was sent to discover if the cache existed. Imperial forces were also sent in to retrieve the
cache, stored at the so-called Eidolon Base. Olan was captured by Captain Semtin and returned to Ryloth, in an attempt to draw off the
Republic’s forces. Semtin later freed him as a way to gain the confidence of the Twi’leki head clans, but caught him again at Eidolon
Base. Semtin stabbed Olan before escpaing, and Bib Fortuna’s brain walker took advantage of the situation. Fortuna had been trailing
Olan, waiting for just such an opportunity to exact revenge. Fortuna dragged Olan’s body to the B’omarr monks and had them swap
brains. Olan was forced to spend the rest of his conscious existence in the brain walker, while Fortuna used his body to try and rebuild
Jabba’s empire. (XWBT)

extinct, until the beings Hethrir, Rillao, and Tigris were discovered by Princess Leia in 33 PE. Then it was revealed that a good number
of Firrerreo were trapped in suspended animation aboard a group of colony ships sent out years ago to colonize nearby planets. (CS)

are the only surviving Firrerreo, because Hethrir later turned the planet over to the Empire, which destroyed the ecosystem with a
biological weapon. Hethrir had been raiding the colony ships for slaves over the years, until his death at the hands of the being Waru.

"bargain" was a run-of-the-mill L19. He invested a huge sum of credits to have outlaw techs refit the ship to appear to be a true L19a,
including modification of the serial numbers and transpoder codes, and Dreleene was able to pass it off for many years. However, a
band of pirates saw the First Edition and captured it, thinking they had acquired an L19a. After learning that it was a fake, the pirates
turned the Moff and the ship over to the Alliance. The Alliance refitted the ship, and renamed it the Almost Authentic. (SS)

Firwirrung was Sibwarra's Ssi-ruuvi commander, and head of the Ssi-ruuvi entechment project at Bakura. Many of his peers, including
Admiral Ivpikkis, felt uncomfortable around Firiwrrung, claiming that he was overly ambitious and unworthy of the praise which was
lavished on him. Firwirrung was credited with the formation of the plan to modify an entechment chair to accommodate a Force-
sensitive individual, allowing the Ssi-ruuk to draw life-energy from other humans across a great distance. Despite the initial success of
the apparatus in enteching Luke Skywalker, Firiwrrung was unable to complete his work. Dev Sibwarra managed to kill the Ssi-ruu
during the Battle of Bakura. (TB, TBSB)

owner, as their actions during the early life of their starship would help the ship grow mature. (RP)
Fitsay
this was one of the underwater cities built by the Sedrians in the shallow oceans of Sedri. While it is known for its architeture, Fitsay is
best known for being the dome which contained the Great Shell Dome which housed the Golden Sun. While having the Golden Sun
gives the Sedrian priests a high level of command over their fellow Sedrians, the water supply to the Golden Sun was greatly reduced.
This meant that the polyps couldn't sieve the water for plankton and other food, and the Golden Sun began to starve. It also tried to
devise a way to get the priests to set it free, without incurring any harm to itself. When a group of Alliance agents traveled to Sedri to
rescue Mors Odrion, they discovered the various plots by Karak, Cardo, and Commander Aban to control the Golden Sun. he Sedrians

Flim
this accomplished actor and impressionist was tapped by Moff Disra for his resemblance to Grand Admiral Thrawn. With a little surgical
alteration and judicious use of dyes, Flim was transformed over a two-year period to become the embodiment of Thrawn. Specialized,
self-powered surface inserts were created to make Flim’s eyes glow red, and his vocal control allowed him to quiet a room in no time.
When the Caamas Incident threatened to tear the New Republic apart, Disra brought Flim out of hiding. Using a series of feints in which
no real explanation was given as to Thrawn’s reappearance, Flim man successfully played the role of Thrawn, using his acting ability
and as much Imperial history as he could memorize to pull off the role. Flim managed to fool Major Tierce as well as Captain Dorja,
both of whom had served under Thrawn. When the Relentless intercepted the Lady Luck, Flim got his chance to portray Thrawn for
Lando Calrissian and Porolo Miatamia. As Thrawn, he offered the New Republic the use of his services in the resolution of the Bothan
situation. They took the message back, but it was rejected by the New Republic. Flim continued to act as Thrawn, drawing in many
systems to the Empire's side, including the Ruurians and the Kroctari. When Han Solo and Calrissian were discovered on Bastion, Flim
got another chance to prove his abilities, portraying Thrawn for both Calrissian and Solo. He offered them a copy of the Caamas
Document, and implicated Borsk Fey'lya in the attack on the Combined Clans Building on Bothawui. He then let them go, knowing that
the Document he provided them had been doctored to implicate other Bothans in the destruction of Caamas. Flim's act was eventually
exposed by Admiral Pellaeon, who revealed not only Flim's background but that of Tierce. Tierce was executed by Shada D'ukal, Disra
was exposed as a traitor, and Flim simply surrendered to Pellaeon. (SOP, VOF)
Flimsiplast
this material resembles sheets of plastic that can be written on. Used for conveying messages, flimsiplast can be impregnated with
chemicals that allow the writing to remain hidden until it contacts a being’s specific chemical makeup. It can also be set to burn up after
the message has been activated, thereby ensuring the message is read and them destroyed. (COJ, SLS)
Flimsy

TPS)
Flin
a Captain in the New Republic. (DESB)
Flin, Nelson
this Alliance Intelligence agent was Evram Darkmere's best friend and chief contact. Darkmere passed on vital information about the

Flint was a Captain in the police force that patrolled the city of D'larah. He was swayed over to the G'uotr Network in order that his wife
and children could be safely transported off Demophon before it was destroyed. He maintained his belief in the law, however, but would
turn a blind eye from minor infractions. (SN)
Flirt
this small, box-like computer was designed for use by the Wookiee Chenlambec and his apprentice, Tinian I’att. Female in personality,
Flirt was designed to look like one of the quarrels in Chen’s bandolier. Flirt was programmed to talk to a computer installment and
insiunate herself into its programming. She was a talkative creation, and loved challenges. This trait allowed her to work hard to
infiltrate the computer system of the Hound’s Tooth when Chenlambec and Tinian attempted to trap Bossk. Flirt was able to gain control
of several security systems, allowing Chen to scout the ship’s defenses. Flirt later gained control of the Hound itself, after electronically
‘sweet-talking’ it. This allowed Chen and Tinian to overcome Bossk’s built-in defenses and trap him near Lomabu III. After they took
control of the Hound’s Tooth, Chen mounted Flirt onto a power-point on the X10-D service droid, giving her a huge, strong body and
full-time access to the Hound’s computer system. (TBH)

cities and poisoned much of its ecology, killing 95 percent of the population and leaving the rest to die. (RASB)
Flitter Suit
this form of protective clothing was essentially a vacuum suit with a small jet pack attached. These suits offered slightly better hard-
vacuum protection than a standard vacuum suit, as well as the ability to make small movements with the jet pack. Because they were

claims that the Fluggrians were native to the planet Ploo IV. (IG1, RAC, SWK, IWE1)
Fluidics
an obsolete technology that used pressurized liquids as the driving force necessary to manipulate the steering vanes of starships. The
technology still exists on some backwater worlds, and various developing species (such as the Kamarians) are only just perfecting it in
their societies. (HSR)
Flurry
an Alliance Quasar Fire-class cruiser-carrier commanded by Captain Manchisco. It was one of several ships donated to the Alliance by
the Sullustans to the Virgillian Alignment forces during the Virgillian Civil War, and was one of the larger ships sent to Bakura to help
the Imperial government there battle the Ssi-ruuk. It was equipped with 20 X-Wings (including the ships of Rogue Squadron), 3 A-
Wings, and 4 B-Wings. The Flurry was also modified to use General Dodonna's prototype Battle Analysis Computer. For all this, the
Flurry was destroyed when Nereus ordered Thanas to open fire on the Alliance ships, following a battle with the Ssi-ruuk. The
Dominant, under Thanas' command, opened fire on the cruiser and exploded it, killing her crew. (TB, EGV)

command of Colonel Foag, who served under Commodore Brand. (TT)
Folor
one of Commenor's moons, its location in the Commenor System allowed it close access to the Corellian spacelanes. The Alliance had
a base there, nestled in the abandoned mines that tunneled through it. Later, following the Battle of Endor, the New Republic used it as
a starfighter training facility. It was on Folor that the X-Wing Rogue Squadron was "reborn," thanks to the work done by Admiral Ackbar
and Wedge Antilles. The Republic also maintained a false beacon on the other side of the planet, along with a complete mock-up of a
base, to throw off attackers and allow an evacuation in case of attack. This false set of beacons was discovered by Gara Petothel,
using Morrt droid data, and Apwar Trigit thought he had the base dead to rights. However, when they arrived at Folor, they discovered
that the "base" was simply a barren ice plain. (XWN, WS)
Fonada
this former Imperial Admiral established his own small fleet after the Battle of Endor, and became one of the first of the renegade
warlords. (HR)

Dubrillion with Leia Organa Solo, to investigate the state of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. (DTO)
Fondine, Slish
this entrepreneur created the first of Umgul City's blobstacle courses in a collapsed sinkhole just outside the city. His designs became a
model for future courses. He also owned a blob stable, and regularly raced his blobs in the city. Fondine discovered Lando Calrissian in
his stables, shortly after Lando arrived on Umgul to locate Dack. Lando had discovered that Dack was impregnating the blobs with
micro-stimulators to improve their performace, and revealed this information to Fondine. (JS, JASB)
Fondine Raceways
this blobstacle source, located on the fringe of Umgul City, was built by Slish Fondine. The course never closes, with racing and waging
continuing throughout the night and day. (JASB)
Fondor
a planet located in the Mid Rim Territories, Fondor is famous for its shipyards and its military importance. It is located a short distance
from a number of trade routes which run from the Core, the Colonies, and the Mid-Rim out to the Outer Rim. The droid Bollux was first
activated there, during the days of the Old Republic. After the Empire took control of the shipyards, the Super-class Star Destroyer
Executor was built there. Fondor was later liberated from Imperial control and used by the New Republic. Six moons orbited Fondor, all
of which were mined for raw ores and materials. Over time, the moons were slowly eroded by mining. During the Yuuzhan Vong
invasion of the galaxy, the alien invaders attacked Fondor and its shipyards used suicide bombing runs. Squadrons of coralskippers
flung themselves at the orbital facilities, causing untold damage. (HSE, CSW, VM, SWAJ, JE)
Fondor City
this was the capital city of the planet Fondor. (JE)
Fondurant
this planet was the site of a New Republic prison facility. (HT)
Fonterrat
this alien scavenger had located the Empire’s storehouse of plagues, and was able to secure a sample of the Emperor’s Plague. He
sold the sample to Nolaa Tarkona, who had Fonterrat’s payment tainted with the plague in order to test its effectiveness. Fonterrat
didn’t directly sell her the location of the storehouse, though. He provided this to Bornan Thul, who later disappeared with the datadisk.
Fonterrat himself fled Tarkona to the planet Gammalin, where he began spending his tainted credits. When the human population
started dying because of the plague, and discovered that Fonterrat was the source, they locked him in jail. He languished there, and
eventually died when his human captors all died of the plague. (TEP)
Fontin, Kare
this elderly man was a former Old Republic Senator. He was well over 100 years of age when the New Order was implemented, and
while his body began failing, his mind was still quick and sharp. He used his wits to avoid succumbing to Imperial pressure, and
eventually became a diplomat for the New Republic. (GMH)

carbohydrates, and proteins. They can be built for residences, large restaurants, and starships. (WEG, DA)
Food-kin
this was the name used by the Priapulin to describe those offspring which were created as a foodsource for an adult. Food-kin were
small, crab-like creatures which scuttled about, never leaving the vicinity of their adult. They were fairly intelligent, and often felt a sense
of pride in the fact that they were the Priapulin's food. Like the other offpsring produced by the adult, the food-kin lived to serve their
parent, and were even proud to be eaten. Once consumed, the eggs of the food-kin are incubated inside the adult Priapulin, continuing
their lines as future partners with the Priapulin. (RP)
Foodtester
any device which is used to detect the presence of poisons in consumables. (CS)
Fools’ Gold
this large ship - measuring almost a kilometer in length - was part of a two-ship convoy that was bringing a shipment of gems to the
Chikarri, in the planet Plagen. The gems were from the Klatooinan Trade Guild, as payment for the right to establish a trading post on
Plagen. Both ships were built for the sole purpose of transporting precious cargoes, and their cargo bays were actually huge vaults
equipped with the best inertial dampers credits could buy. The hulls were reinforced in order to survive any attack, and the fuel cells
were capable of propelling the ships for several centuries. The Fool’s Gold was lost in the Karbonni Asteroid Belt when it was forced out
og hyperspace by a rogue asteroid, and it was not seen for several centuries until its existence was discovered by a Chikarri historian,
some years after the Battle of Endor. Chiakrri law stated that the ship was the property of whoever found it first, and a race to locate the
ship ended when a group of explorers outraced Bruce Mercy and his pirates to it. (TSK)

Forbidden's weapons systems were removed. The Forbidden was later used to ferry criminals from Kessel to its moon, when the
Rogues negotiated the release of Zekka Thyne. (XWN, WG)
Force-7
a code phrase sued by Lando Calrissian on Cloud City to indicate that it was time to fight back against the Imperials occupying the city.
(ESBN)
Force, The
an energy that occurs naturally in the galaxy, it springs from all forms of life. It has two "sides," a good side and a Dark Side, although
this is a great oversimplification of the Force’s existence. It has many sides, including a living element and a unifying element, and it
binds all things together in a great web of existence. The Jedi Knights discovered that the Force was accessible to all living beings
through the presence of midi-chlorians in their cells. The more midi-chlorians that inhabited a being’s cells, the more the being was able
to contact the Force. However, a high concentration of midi-chlorians did not guarantee a being control of the Force. Only through
intense study and dedicated training could a being become proficient in harnessing the power of The Force. The Jedi Council
discovered that younger beings had an easier time of learning the techniques required to touch and control the Force, and eventually
developed a system that actively sought out and identified beings with high midi-chlorian counts at their birth. With, or sometimes
without, the permission of the parents, the Jedi took children no more than one year old away for training. Children and older beings,
who had already established a set pattern of mental and physical usage, often were unable to complete the necessary training, and
were deemed too wasteful of Jedi resources. The Jedi Knights have historically been the most powerful users of The Force, having
trained with and learned the three basic techniques: control (the manipulation of one's internal Force strength), sense (detection of the
Force in the external world), and alter (manipulation of matter with the Force). These techniques, used by themselves or in combination,
allow the Jedi to perform many different activities with the Force. (SW, HTSB, TPM)

Force Detector
a device developed by Emperor Palpatine, it uses two unique sheet-crystal paddles and a control pack to determine whether or not a
person is Force-sensitive. If the person has some sensitivity to the Force, a bluish aura is displayed around them when the detector is
activated. The strength of the aura has come correlation to the amount of Force sensitivity the person has. Anyone without Force
sensitivity does not register the blue aura. (JS)
Force Fence
a fence used to enclose prison grounds, it carries some sort or repulsion and/or shock field to deter the prisoners from escaping. (LCM)

Force pike
a older weapon, much like a long staff with a vibroblade at the end. See electro-jabber. (CPL)
Force Sabaac
an ancient variation of Sabacc, in which the cards are not randomized, but the players must declare their hand to be light or dark, based
on the cards dealt to him. The strongest light or dark hand wins, provided that the overall lightness or darkness (based on all the hands
in play) is in their favor. A lone dark hand against all light hands is almost always a loser. (CPL)
Force Scream
once called "a wave of hatred, amplified and fueled by the Dark Side," this Sith power allowed the wielder to smash through mental and
physical defenses with ease. (TOJC)
Force Sensitivity
a trait in some individuals which allows them to be more attuned to the Force than others. (SME, WEG)
Force Shackles
very effective, very expensive restraining devices which use alloy cuff bands to hold a captive. The bands have miniature tractor beams
placed on them. These tractor beams grasp the opposing cuff band and keep it locked in place. The tightness of the cuff can be

ForceFlow
this was the pseudonym used by a computer slicer who often made contact with Tash Arranda. ForceFlow often wrote stories of the
Jedi Knights and posted them on the Imperial HoloNet, but never managed to get caught. These stories attracted Tash, and the two
became friends. ForceFlow often provided Tash with inside information on the Empire, helping her to be aware of possible dangers in
her travels with Mammon Hoole. After the Arranda children and Hoole arrived on Nespis VIII, ForceFlow seemed to help Tash
understand what was happening. However, it was later revealed that ForceFlow was actually Borborygmus Gog, who had been hoping
to lure the Arrandas and Hoole into a trap on Nespis VIII, in order to test out his Essence Stealer. (GOF1, GOF2, GOF5)
Fordon System
the Quarren pirate Jerresk was once spotted in this star system, shortly after the Battle of Endor. (WBC)

their minds to the future of their planet live on this continent. (TSK)
Forge, Inyri
Lujayne Forge's sister, Inyri was remarkably similar to Lujayne in appearance. She had just as much promise as Lujayne did, but felt
that she never got her parents' support in anything. She rebelled, and joined up with Zekka Thyne while he was imprisoned on Kessel.

throughout the galaxy regard the frog-dog as a stupid creature, due to its appearance and its low stature. This is something the
frog-dogs do little to rectify, as it serves their purposes quite well. They have made themselves available as spies to various agencies
throughout the galaxy, including the Empire. (TJP)
Fromm
a gang which operated on the planet Annoo during the early years of the Galactic Civil War. They controlled the weapons satellite
Trigon One until Demma Moll and her band of freedom fighters destroyed it. (DCAR)
Frona Zeffla
this governmental functionary died at her desk, deep within the Imperial Palace on Coruscant. Because of the office’s location within the
Palace, her body wasn’t discovered for more than a year. (TT)
Fronde's Airspeeders
this speeder rental company had twenty-two outlets scattered throughout Lola Curich and Lianna. In addition to speeder rentals,
Fronde's also sells used speeders, and has a small repair shop. (ML)
Fronk's Fever
a bogus ailment Han Solo references when he leaves Ploovo 2-for-1 in the Free-Flight Dance Dome on Etti IV. (HSE)
Frontier Post
this was the name used by the New Republic Scout Service for any one of about 5,000 frontier worlds used as clearing houses on local
system information. Most of the facilities on Frontier Posts were automated, and provided scouts working in remote areas of the galaxy
with current information. These scouts could also receive new mission orders at Frontier Posts, as well as obtain a little rest and
relaxation. (GG8)

Frost, Alum
one of the Empire's most skilled and loyal soldiers, Frost was among the top four members of the training facility on Yinchorr, in the
same class as Carnor Jax and Kir Kanos. Emperor Palpatine ordered Frost and Jax to battle each other to the death, in an effort to
prove their loyalty. Jax quickly dispatched Frost. (CE)
Frosty Sulphate
an alcoholic concotion created by Wuher. (TME)
Froz
a planet, and homeworld of the Frozian race, Froz had a lighter-than-standard gravity. It was once covered with grassy plains and
deciduous forests, until the Empire decided to punish the Frozians for sympathizing with the Alliance. Large portions of the planet's
surface were bombarded with turbolasers, destroying much of the native flora and fauna. (AC, AE)
Frozian
a race of humanoids from the planet Froz, Frozians have an extra joint in their arms and legs. This makes their motion very unusual to
watch. They evolved from a species of prairie lopers who lived by eating the fruit of tall trees. They are covered in fur, and have
whiskers on their faces. They have no external ears, and large muzzles. Frozians have a tendency to stutter words or phrases while
they are speaking Basic. They evolved in the relatively low gravity of Froz, and could live to be over 100 years old. Those Frozians who
lived on higher-gravity worlds often found it difficult to adjust, and the average life expectancy of a Frozian living off their native world
was about 20 years less than normal. During the height of the Galactic Civil War, the Frozians were accused by the Empire of harboring
sympathy for the Alliance. To make an example out of them, the Empire blasted large sections of the surface of Froz with turbolaser
fire, decimating a good portion of the Frozian populatio. (AC, AE)
Fruck
this Gamorrean was one of Ugmush’s husbands, and was a weapons gunner on the Zicreex. (POT)

Calamari's herbivorous sea life. (DA)
Fruit Fizz
a non-alcoholic drink favored by many of the New Republic’s starfighter pilots. (IF)
FSCV
Loronar's Field-Secured Container Vessel, the FSCV always travels in pairs. The two ships face their ion engines in opposite directions,
which places their Prexton doublefield generators opposite the engines. The two generators create a huge force bubble, which can be
surrounded by a hyperspace field so that the pair can jump into lightspeed. The power required to generate the force bubble draws
considerable power from the ion engines, leading to lengthy acceleration and deceleration distances. (ISB)
FSI-200
this was the model number of one of Sabrashi Bio-chemical Deterrants' Fear Sticks. (FOP)
Fud Sang
this unusual alien was considered a top-notch pod racer during the last years of the Old Republic. Fud Sang was unusual in that his

Full-Spectrum Transceiver
a sensor package that are often called Universal Sensors because they can detect all sorts of objects, energies, and fields. These
sensors use large receptor dishes to collect available sensory information. Thus, the larger the dish, the better quality information that
can be gathered. (WEG)
Fuller, Devon
a native of the planet Arkanis, Devon was the model of a brash, young, X-Wing pilot. He was accepted into the Vensenor Flight
Academy, but was expelled for his behavior. Still, he managed to learn enough to serve as a ship's navigator until he saved up enough
credits to buy his owne ship. As a spacer, he was characterized as a nuisance, until he met up with Owen Sareth, who introduced
Devon to the Alliance. Since then, Devon's first ship, the Croc of Gold has been destroyed by Imperial forces. His second ship was also
shot down by the Empire. This formed a great hatred for the Empire in Devon, and hardened his resolve to assist the Alliance. After
Devon met Corwin Shelvay, he settled down even further, and his closest compatriots have called him philosophical. (GG9)
Fulminant
this New Republic warship was destroyed at the Battle of N’zoth. (TT)

(DRO)
Funnel Flower
this plant, native to Tatooine, has a cone of large petals that grows from a long, J-shaped stem. The stem itself grows within a crack or
crevice in the rocks. The plant pulls hot air in through the upper part of the stem, and then moves it down into the part hidden in the
crevice. There, moisture condenses out of the air, and is hoarded by the plant in the crook of the stem. (ISU)
Fur-spider
this venomous arachnid was native to the planet Devaron. As large as a dog, these insects wove webs of blood-red webbing. A large
group of these spiders lives in the undercity of Coruscant. (TPS)
Furball
1) a species of Kimanannian marsupial. (HSE)
2) this was starfighter pilots' slang for an engagement zone. (SOA)
Furgan
1) this Caridan ambassador was he is extremely loyal to the Old Empire and to Palpatine. He remained pro-Imperial during the early
years of the New Republic, even though the old Emperor had been dead 7 years. Following the death of the reborn Emperor, Furgan
went on what he called a pilgrimage to Coruscant to view the Empire's former center, and on the trip, he attended a New Republic
function. It is at this function that he threw a drink in Mon Mothma's face. The drink contained a number of nano-destroyers attuned to
her genetic structure, and the pilgrimage eventually became obvious as an assassination attempt. Furgan was also involved in a plot to
capture Anakin Solo and gain a leg up on Leia Organa and the New Republic. His attempt was foiled when Terpfen, Furgan's Mon
Calamari spy, turned on him, and Furgan was killed when Terpfen pushed his MT-AT off a cliff with another of the MT-ATs. (JS, DA,
COTF)
2) Furgan is one of the suburbs of Umgul City. (JASB)
Furlag
this tall, furry humanoid was part of the loose bounty hunter alliance that formed around Bossk, just before the Battle of Endor. Furlag
and the others tried to intercept Boba Fett and claim the carbonite-frozen body of Han Solo. They missed Fett on Gaul, but were able to
track him using a signal sent by 4-LOM. The bounty hunters captured Slave I and took Fett prisoner, and Furlag was placed in charge
of locking Fett up. However, this bat-faced alien didn't notice Fett activating an unused crawl shaft, and stepped into the open tube.
Furlag was then sucked into space and was killed. (SE)
Furworm
a large, furry alien creature. (COTF)
Fury
1) one of three Imperial-class Star Destroyers under the command of Lumiya, following the Battle of Endor. (SWG)
2) this transport ship was owned by the Mistryl. Shada D'ukal and Dunc T'racen used it during the early years of the New Republic,
when they were sent to assist Ghitsa Dogder and Fenig Nabon in transporting a group of Twi'leki dancers. (TFNR)
Fuse-ball
this tabletop game of skill involved moving zero-gravity targets into assigned spaces in order to score points. (POC)
Fusion Cutter
an industrial tool with many applications. It produces a wide-dispresion laser beam which can be used to cut through most materials. It
can also be used as a weapon, in a pinch. (SW, DF)
Fusion Disintegrator
this device uses a contained reactor to reduce other materials to smaller, nearly atomic particles. They found widespread use in
tunneling applications, where dirt and rock must be removed and transported from a dig site. Because of the nature of the machine,
though, it can be used to cut through virtually any material. The disintegrator can be used manually, or mounted on a support tripod.
(VOF)
Fusion Disk
a small device which has a small charge attached. When the disk contacts another surface, the charge is ignited, causing the disk to
fuse itself to the other surface. The tow cables used by the Alliance to trip the Imperial walkers on Hoth employed fusion disks. (ESB)
Fusion Furnace
a small device which generates heat and light, or can generate power for recharging energy cells. (ESB)
Fusion Holodrama
this holo-feature producer was responsible for some of the most popular holovids produced during the New Order. Among their
brightest stars was the actress Wynssa Starflare. (MBF)
Fusion Reactor
the most popular source of starship power, cold-ionization fusion reactors fuse matter at room temperature, creating huge amounts of
energy without emitting large amounts of heat. The fusion reactor then sends the energy it generates to the cryogenic power cells for
storage. These are also safe sources of power, since they employ a well-understood technology at tolerable temperatures. Fusion
reactors are a necessity for propelling large starships through hyperspace. (SWSB, TT)
Fusion WeldCut
this welder is roughly the size and shape of a blaster, and emits a narrow stream of fused plasma. The stream is capable of welding two
metals together as well as cutting through most metals. It has oversized controls, which allow it to be used by vac-suited repairmen at
orbital drydocks. (TA)
Fusion Welder
a small device used to weld two objects together, the fusion welder alters the molecular structure of the two objects at the point which
they meet, forming a tight seal. The welder generates an internal fusion reaction, focusing the energy created through its nozzle. Fusion
welders are often used to place restraining bolts on droids. They resemble bulky blaster pistols, and used blaster power packs. (CCG,
GMH)
Futhark
this is the name of the formal Naboo alphabet. Based on a series of oval shapes, the futhark is reserved for use in military and official
control labels. (IG1)

alphabet. (IG1)
Futility Station
this was a nickname of Lant Mining Corporation's LMCTS-24542 testing station. (HAS)
Fuzzel
this Commander in the Imperial Armed Forces was stationed on Tatooine during the Galactic Civil War. Fuzzel had managed to
arrange a deal with Jabba the Hutt, in which Jabba turned over certain criminals to Fuzzel for their rewards. More often than not, Jabba
provided dead criminals, but he still managed to find those beings Fuzzel could not. He was one of the many officers hunting for the
criminal Karkas, and Fuzzel intercepted Hoole upon his arrival, after learning that Hoole's ship had left Koda Space Station at the same
time Karkas had fled. He let Hoole and his young charges, Tash and Zak Arranda, free after thoroughly searching their ship. Fuzzel
later received Karkas' body, although Jabba had removed his brain and stored inside the brain spider droid of a B'omarr monk. Shortly
thereafter, Fuzzel was found murdered in a Mos Eisley alleyway, with the letter 'K' carved into ihs forehead. Zak Arranda discovered the
body, and believed that his sister, Tash, was responsible for the crime. However, it had just been Tash's body. Jabba had arranged to
have Karkas's brain placed into another criminal's body, but the criminal had escaped. So Jabba used Tash as a temporary holder.

this Weequay worked for Booster Terrik as a guard and soldier aboard the Errant Venture. (IJ)
Fyodoi
this human stock evolved on the planet Fyodos. At one time, the Fyodoi had became a technology-rich society with a thriving space
program. They had managed to send starships to explore their system. Each of the three continental groups of Fyodoi were in
intellectual competiton with each other, until profits and corporate directives got in the way. Small battles began to break out among the
three groups, and these battles escalated into a full-scale war. Using the fruits of their technology, the Fyodoi developed weapons of
mass-destruction and unleashed them on each other. This war later became known as the Great Cleansing. Soon, the planet Fyodos
was reduced to a scarred hulk.The Fyodoi realized that their pride and technology had destroyed the world they loved, and reverted to
a primitive society of hunter/gatherers and warriors. The Fyodoi are a loud and boisterous race of stubborn, narrow-minded warriors.
(PG2)
Fyodos
this planet, the fourth in the Tatrang System, was a mecca of high technology and beauty until its human population declared war on
itself. The planet's other native race, the Galidyns, could only watch in horror as their neighbors unleashed huge weapons of mass
destruction on the world. Now, the planet is recovering from the wars. Much of the terrain has nearly recovered, although only the
Galidyns remember its former beauty. The humans have reverted to a pre-technology stage of development. The average day on
Fyodos lasts 20 local hours, and the year lasts 360 local days. Fyodos has three natural satellites. (PG2)
Fyre, Silver
a former smuggling pal of Han Solo's and a mercenary leader, she commanded the Aquaris Freeholders. At one time, Silver hijacked a
load of spice being transported by Solo, and he hasn't trusted her since. Before she officially joined the Alliance, she had been
responsible for turning people in to the Empire. While on the planet Kabal, after meeting with Leia Organa, she signed up with the
Alliance. Thus, when the Alliance met her on Aquaris, Han was skeptical of her support. However, she proved her loyalty to the Alliance
when she rescued the agents from Kraaken, her second-in-command. (CSW)
Fyyrsprus
members of this clumsy, reptilian species were subcontracted to perform work for Dapp Solus and Salem Victory on their custom
freighter, the Starcat. After several of the repairs were found to be faulty - in reality, the Happy Blasters got what they paid for, which
wasn't much - the technician Mac targeted the Fyyrsprus for extermination. He organized the team's efforts to "repay" the Fyyrsprus for
their poor work. (SWJ13)
F1-series Droid
developed by Cybot Galactica, this four-legged companion droid was designed for use by scouts and explorers. Canine in shape, the
F1 droid is equipped with a heavy grasping jaw designed for holding without crushing. The head of the droid contains video, audio, and
olfactory pickups, as well as a communications uplink and movement sensor package. (GG8)
F2-series Droid
this second-generation exploration droid was manufactured by Cybot Galactica. These droids were known to be loyal, dedicated, and
moderately clever in their ability to solve problems. (ROE)
F4-7
one of the medical droids evacuated from the Alliance’s Echo base on the Bright Hope. F4-7 was 2-1B’s medical assistant. (TBH)
F7
Kuat Drive Yards drop ship, the F7 is affectionately known as the Landing Brick. It is a 60-meter troop transport ship that is used to get
troops from an orbiting capital ship to a planet's surface. They are minimally shielded and armed with only a single laser cannon. They
are equipped with huge, short-burst drive systems that operate only upon landing. The drop ship free-falls to the surface, and the
engines kick in just before impact. This allows the ship to entry a planet's atmosphere nearly undetected. (DFRSB)
F7V
this series of valet/translator droids was produced by Cybot Galactica. They were capable of translating over 3,000,000 languages via a
TranLag II communication module. (TA)
F8GN
this tall, spindly, copper-colored droid was owned by Garris Shrike. Shrike programmed the droid to keep a running tally of the credits
brought in by the children who worked for Shrike. Each child was given a territory to work on Corellia, and F8GN’s job was to make sure
each child brought in the proper amount. F8GN was in need of repair almost constantly, as indicated by the patchwork of small plates
and welds on its body. F8GN’s vocabulator didn’t always work right, and alternated between a metallic shrill and a deep , unctuous
boom. F8GN’s eyes were fitted with different colored lenses, giving the droid one red eye and one green eye. (TPS)
*G*
G Cat
this modified Arakyd Helix Interceptor was operated by Cryle Cavv, with the help of the astromech droid R2-RC, during the height of the
Galactic Civil War. Cavv claimed the ship was nothing more than a transport vessel, despite its military beginnings. Cavv armed the
ship with four plasburst cannons and a pair of proton torpedo launchers, and installed a slave circuit and beckon call to remotely call the
ship to his location. (SWJ12)
G-locks
a starship's protective restraint system for its passengers. (SME)
G-type Rotolaser
this outdated weapon is similar to a Gatling Gun. It produced coherent bolts of energy like a modern blaster, but it does so via a rotating
galven tube. The tube collects energy as is spins, and ejects a bolt whenever the galven pattern meets the barrel. The resulting bolts of
energy are relatively low in power, since the galven tube spins rapidly and doesn’t collect enough energy before it meets the barrel
again. (SH)
G-001
this was the designation of Comar's Tracker anti-atmospheric gun, developed for surface-to-air combat. (BI)
G-003
designation of Comar's TriTracker anti-atmospheric gun. It has an advanced target acquisition and tracking system, which uses three
different sensor arrays to locate its targets. Although it can be operated by droids, a trained pair of crewmen provides the best operation
and accuracy. The G-003 suffers from a rather limited range, though, and requires a land-line power source. (ISB)
G-021
this is one of the many New Republic personnel transport gigs used to ferry pilots and commanders between the ships of the Fifth
Battle Group. Plat Mallar was in charge of the gig, which he used to ferry Colonel Bowman Gavin to the Polaron. (TT)

computer. (IC)
G-2RD
a prison guard droid originally developed by Arakyd, and was later used by the New Republic. They stand about 1.2 meters in height,
and are equipped with a repulsorlift for locomotion. The G-2RD has a visual/sound sensor suite, a vocabulator, a broadband antenna, a
grasping claw, and two weapons appendages - one for stunning and one armed with a blaster. (DFR, DFRSB, SWJ14)
g-2000
a powerful, extremely sensitive life form tracker manufactured by Speizoc. (COJ)
G-3PO
known as Uncle Gee, this protocol droid was owned by Xalto Sneerzick’s parents. When Sneerzick’s mother died, his father
programmed Uncle Gee to care for Xalto. They grew extremely close, and it was Xalto who gave the droid the nickname Uncle Gee.
When Sneerzick established the Droid Abolitionist Movement, G-3PO remained by his side, and even risked his mechanical life for the
fanatical leader. G-3PO was the first droid impregnated with the “emancipation virus” developed by Sneerzick and Babalabbet Swoont.
Like the rest of Sneerzick’s followers, Uncle Gee was aboard the Argent Lady when the cargo of R5 droids reacted strangely to the
“emancipation virus” and attacked the abolitionists. G-3PO was blasted during a firefight. (SWJ9)
G-40
strong, single-purpose droids. These silver automata can be programmed to perform menial tasks. (COJ)

G'nnoch
this ancient, pictographic work was compiled by the Ssi-ruu race, and documented the existence of the Ssi-ruuk and their place in the
Universe. Other parts of the G'nnoch detail the various ways of obtaining and losing honor. A major section of this work described the
creation of the universe, from the Ssi-ruuk point of view. In the beginning, there wer four eggs. From the first hatched Ssi and P'w'itthki.
Ssi's children hatched from the second egg, while P'w'itthki's children hatched from the third egg. The fourth egg was reserved for those
descendants who earned a place in the afterlife. Eventually, Ssi was forced to defeat P'w'itthki in combat, but allowed P'w'itthki's
hatchlings to live on, serving the children of Ssi forall eternity. This myth describes the beginning of the relationship between the Ssi-
ruuk (htachlings of Ssi) and the P'w'eck (hatchlings of P'w'itthki). (AE, TBSB)
G'nook
an unintelligent species of ape-like humanoids with very small brains. (MMY)

Ga'p'tashi
this Kajain'sa'Nikto started his career as an enforcer aboard a Hutt starship, but soon became quite angry at the fact that other races
were not subject to the slavery of the Hutts like the Nikto were. He almost considered joining the Alliance, but was recruited by the
Tenloss Syndicate as a pirate. Ga'p'tashi quickly accepted the offer, after Tenloss indicated that they wanted him to work almost
exclusively in Hutt Space, disrupting Hutt convoys. He soon acquired the Nikto Kajidic, and manned it with Nikto and Klatooinan officers
and gunners. Ga'p'tashi was very successful, and even completed a raid on the planet Vodran without being damaged. (PP)
Gaaqu
an Imperial Moff. (ISB)
Gaar Suppoon
this alien criminal was a rival of Jabba the Hutt's during the early years of the New Order. Suppoon was a pink-skinned humanoid with a
long face and thin limbs. His nose and chin are studded with a pair of short tusks. The name "Gaar" is a title of respect among his
people. Suppoon was responsible for the destruction of Kosh Kurp's village and family, although he was known as Sonopo Bomoor
then. Kurp tracked the alien across the galaxy, and finally caught up with him, thanks to a plan devised by Jabba the Hutt. When Jabba
revealed that Suppoon was really Bomoor, Kosh Kurp decided it was time to repay Bomoor. Suppoon tried to shot Kurp, but the laser
blast deflected off Kurp's armor and blasted Suppoon's head off. Jabba turned Suppoon's holdings over to Kurp. (JTH)
Gaartatha
this Wookiee was a freelance pilot and shipper during the Galactic Civil War. However, his partner was caught by Imperial forces and
enslaved for labor. Gaartatha himself barely escaped, and consoled himself by consuming too many Dentarian Ripples. He spent the
rest of his time trying to figure out how to rescue his partner. (GMH)
Gaawan
this is the Tuhgri title given to the leader of a Tuhgri tribe. Each gaawan is sent to the House of Balance each year to discuss matters of
importance to the Tuhgri. (KO)
Gabby
the 18-year-old survey pilot of the Astrolabe, Gabby was killed near Doornik-1142. (BTS)
Gablith Masquer
developed from the basic ooglith masquer, the gablith masquer allowed the Yuuzhan Vong to assume the guise of certain non-human
races, including the Duros. The gablith masquer could form itself into a number of shapes and textures, and its activation spot was
located on the wearer's neck. This modification - the activation spot on an ooglith masquer was near the nose of the wearer - allowed a
Yuuzhan Vong to impersonate a species such as the Duro, which lacked a nose. (BP)
Gabredor III
this heavily forested world was the site of the Karazak Slavers Guild loading base during the early years of the New Republic. The Red
Moons broke up the Guild's operation when they attempted to rescue the children of the ambassador of Cantras Gola. The planet is
located with the hyperspace route known as Myto’s Arrow. However, like many planets along the route, Gabredor III offered no real
value to developers and was ignored. This made it the perfect haven for smugglers and slavers. The average day on Gabredor III lasts
22 standard hours, and its year lasts 352 local days. (SWJ8, TFE)
Gacer'grocinga
this Gacerite term means "leader of artists. It is the highest compliment a Gacerite can bestow on a non-Gacerite, and was used to
describe Imperial Governor Ulbrek Gostech. (PG2)
Gacerian
1) this planet is the fourth and primary world in the Gacerian System. It was a model of what the Empire could have been if it had been
more compassionate. The Imperial governor, while in complete control, left the general populace to themselves. This had the effect of
instilling the values of the New Order while preserving many of the freedoms the people once shared. Gacerian is the homeworld of the
Gacerite race. It is a world of stark beauty: the lack of naturally beautiful landmarks makes those that exist much more breathtaking.
Gacerian also have no axial tilt, so it has no seasonal variations. Its days last 36 standard hours, and its year encompasses 375 local
days. Gacerian has two natural satellites. One of the main exports of the planet are beautiful gemstones mined there. The remnants of
the Imperial occupation control them, using slaves to extract the gems. (PG2)
2) this is the native language of the Gacerite race. (POT)
Gacerite
1) this alien race is native to the planet Gacerian. They are humanoid, but stand nearly three meters tall. They have spindly limbs and
no body hair. Their eyes have evolved into small, black orbs that protect the optic nerve from the bright glare of Klozar. Their ears, on
the other hand, are large, and the Gacerite sense of hearing is very keen. The nostrils in their noses draw air into their primary set of
lungs, while a secondary set of nostrils - located in their necks - connect to a thirs lung. This arrangement allows them to continue to
breath while talking or singing. Their music is cherished throughout the galaxy; even Emperor Palpatine was said to be fond of Gacerite
dirge opera. The Gacerites have a classless society and a well-disciplined army, and they do battle with vigor whenever they
compatriots play battle music. They also make excellent translators, and often are chosen to reprogram 3PO droids. The average
Gacerite lives to be 150 years old. (PG2, AE)

Gala
this planet was long ruled by the Tallah dynasty, which held sway over three social tribes: the city people, the hill people, and the sea
people. The planet was the homeworld of the Galacian race, and had three natural satellites. The average day on the planet was short,
and the period of daylight was very short. A decade before the Battle of Naboo, the old Queen of the Tallah agreed to allow her
successor to be chosen by popular vote of all the planet's inhabitants. Each of the three tribes would choose a candidate, and the
leader would be chosen from among them. She recognized that the gap between the rich and the poor was widening, and that a
continued division would tear the planet apart. Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn were scheduled to travel to this planet, after they
survived their encounter with Xanatos on Bandomeer. The Jedi were on a mission given to them by Yoda, to mediate the election of the
planetary leader. Instead, they were hijacked to the planet Phindar by Paxxi Derida and his brother, Guerra. After Obi-Wan was
captured by the Syndicat, he was "renewed" by Baftu and dropped on Gala. However, Obi-Wan had used the Force to resist the effects
of the renewal process, and landed with his memories intact. (HP, MOC)

destroyed. The planet's day lasts 132 standard hours, and its annual rotation takes up 479 local days. (SWAJ, SWJ8)
Galacian
this race of humanoids was native to the planet Gala. There were three primary tribes of Galacians: those that lived in the city, those
that lived in the hills, and those that lived on the sea. They were thin-bodied creatures with pale, bluish skin which seemed to have a
faintly-glowing luminescence. The Galacians often referred to the color of their skin as "moonlight." Because sunlight was not abundant
on Gala, they were often referred to as "moon people." The Galacians held deep beliefs in the family structure, and marriages were
often arranged so that one or both families augmented their own strength. (HP, MOC)

this huge museum, located in Imperial City on Coruscant, has survived the various political changes that have swept around it. The
museum is the home of many records detailing the Old Republic's growth as well as that of the Empire. There are a number of Sith and
Jedi artifacts stored there. The Emperor Palpatine cut all funding for the museum during his rule, keeping the knowledge contained
within from the public. He did, however, leave enough money for the museum to carry on his legacy. When the Rogue Squadron pilots
infiltrated Coruscant following the Battle of Endor, they found a vast holographic display in which Darth Vader lamented over the death
of Palpatine at the hands of the treacherous Rebels. Vader's image claimed that Palpatine was visiting a new "planetary ore extractor" -
another name for the second Death Star - when the Rebels attacked. The image went on to claim that the Rebels were going to steal it
in order to destroy Imperial planets, when Palpatine offered them forgiveness. The Rebels then killed him and stole the extractor. Much
of this pro-Imperial propaganda was removed by the New Republic, following the liberation of Coruscant from Ysanne Isard, and was
replaced with failry neutral depictions of the Galactic Civil War. (ISU, WG, SOC)

(AS)
Gallandro
the son of a commoner from the planet Ylix, Gallandro grew up unaware of the wars between his own planet and the nearby world of
Goelitz. When terrorists from Goelitz murdered his parents while he watched, Gallandro was thrown into the world of violence. He was
placed in an orphanage until he was old enough to sign up for duty in the military. He became an excellent soldier; he felt that to be
anything less than the best was to end up like his parents. His hatred for the Goelitz made him sharpen his skills, and his victories
became almost legendary. When a mission to attack a hospial went bad - Gallandro's quik reflexes made whirl and fire, killing an elderly
nurse caring for several young orphans - he came face-to-face with the reality that he just didn't care anymore about anything. He was
a soldier, after all. He was part of the forces that eventually defeated the Goelitz. Deprived of work but still highly-skilled, Gallandro
hired himself out as a bodyguard, mercenary, and bounty hunter. He single-handedly hijacked the Quamar Messenger before being
contracted by Odumin to kill the Malorm family, which he did with ease. He reached them on Matra IV just before a Malkite Poisoner
could catch them, and Gallandro was also forced to kill the Poisoner. This got him into a feud with the Malkite Poisoners' Guild which
lasted ten years. During this time, Gallandro killed more than half of the Guild's elite leaders. Gallandro was then offered a full-time
position as one of Odumin's operatives while Odumin was a territorial manager with the Corporate Sector Authority. Gallandro arrived
on Ammuud shortly before Han Solo and Fiolla, and tried to figured out the best way to deal with the possible exposure of the slave
trade. He worked with Reesbon clan to determine that a challenge to the new Mor Glayyd would eliminate his power and and leads.
Gallandro was hired to play the part of an offworlder who offended the Mor Glayyd's sister. The plan was to lure Ewwen into a
death-duel, which he would surely lose, or force him to step down as Mor Glayyd, reducing his reputation. Gallandro was ready to kill
Ewwen when Han Solo stepped in to fight for Ewwen. Recognizing that Han was a somewhat-experienced gunman, Gallandro opted to
back out of the duel himself, rather than risk death. As he was leaving, he quickly drew his weapon and knocked out a number of
holotargets, showing at least Han that he was an incredibly fast and accurate gunman. He re-appeared as Han was trying to leave
Ammuud, overtaking the Falcon in an Authority warship. When he boarded the Falcon and ordered Han to fly it back to the spaceport,
he also asked for Zlarb's data plaque. Han gave it to him, triggering the security case's neuro-charge. Gallandro was disabled, and Han
neutralized him. Han allowed Gallandro to escape, which allowed Gallandro to set out on a mission of revenge against Han.
Gallandro's search for Han Solo continued until he was able to intercept Han on Dellalt. When Gallandro learned of Han's involvement
with Badure and Hasti, he began making contacts with J'uoch and R'all, and was on the planet when Han and his group arrived to
search for the Queen of Ranroon. Gallandro aided J'uoch insomuch as it allowed him to gain access to Han Solo. When the two met
up, they eventually came to an uneasy truce, agreeing to split the treasue of Xim in return to Han's life. Gallandro never intended to go
through with the agreement, and when he had Han Solo alone in the starship's, hold, he tried to eliminate Han. Skynx interferred,
drawing Gallandro away from Han. When Gallandro tried to follow Skynx into the actual treasue hold, the ship's anti-weapons systems
opened fire on Gallandro. He was incinerated by the combined blast of a number of laser beams. Gallandro was a gaudy dresser, and
was known for his gray hair and long, droopy moustaches, into which he braided golden beads. (HSR, HSL, CSA)
Gallandro, Anja
this woman was the daughter of the gunslinger Gallandro, born shortly before he was killed on the Queen of Ranroon. He had met her
mother on Anobis, just as the civil war there was breaking out. He left to find fortune and glory, and left her on Anobis. Her mother came
from a mining family, and she was devastated when news of Gallandro’s death came. She made sure that Anja knew who killed her
father, although she mistakenly believed it was Han Solo. Anja’s mother was killed in the early battles of Anobis’ civil war, leaving Anja
an orphan. Anja left the planet as soon as she could stow away, and eventually ended up on Ord Mantell. There, she became addicted
to andris spice, which helped to heighten her senses and skills as a warrior. She came into possession of an ancient lightsaber, which
she wielded almost as well as a Jedi. A small woman with long, dark hair held back from her face by a rune-covered leather band,
Anja’s lightsaber was acid-yellow in color. She eventually went ot work for Czethros, and jumped at the opportunity to exact revenge on
rd
Han Solo when they plotted to kill him during the 93 Blockade Runners Derby. The attempt failed, but she confronted Solo and
demanded he attone for her father’s death by trying to solve the problems on Anobis. She hoped he would die in the war, but he
managed to survive. She then decided to join the Solo children on Yavin 4, in an effort to remain close to Han and help Czethros kill
him. However, the more she came to know Jaina and Jacen, the more she began to doubt Czethros’ motives. She tried to fit in with the
young Jedi students, but she first battled to overcome what she felt was a small spice habit. However, she was unable to free herself of
andris’ lure alone. She fled Yavin 4 by stealing the Lightning Rod from Zekk and traveling to Kessel, where she bullied her way into a
hangar and set out to find a vial of spice. She hoped that one more dose would help her get beyond the pain of withdrawal, but soon
found herself mistaken. A chance meeting with Lilmit later reveealed Czethros’ treacherous manipulation of her emotions, and she
turned away from Black Sun. She helped Cilghal and Jacen eliminate a Black Sun stash of spice beneath the polar icecaps on
Calamari, then finaly beat her addiction. She lef the Jedi Academy on Yavin 4 with a new set of friends, and went to work for Lando
Calrissian as a pilot. (ROM, TCC, CCR)

darkness. He has overcome his race's instinctive fear of the night, and is often seen walking the dark streets, reassuring his people of
their safety. Ever since the Empire arrived on Zelos II and was thought to be driven off, Nul has kept the planet under a blanket of
martial law. Nul considers himself the Mandated Commander of the People of Zelos, often using the title Commander. His word is the
absolute law on Zelos II, and he has not relinquished it despite the belief that the Empire has left the planet. He is distinguishable by his
jet-black hair and military dress. After Jai Raventhorn and the New Republic were tipped off to the Imperial presence on the planet, their
strike team was killed and Raventhorn was captured. When she was rescued, along with Dirk Harkness, Jai captured the Imperial
officer commanding the base and called Nul to let him know about the hidden garrison in the Valley of Umbra. Shortly afterward, Nul
disavowed any support for the Empire, and petitioned to have Zelos II be admitted to the New Republic. (PG2, TFNR)
Gallia, Adi
this beautiful, brown-skinned woman was a Jedi Master during the last years of the Old Republic. Born to Corellian parents who were
diplomats on Coruscant, she was quickly recognized for her strength with the Force. After years of training, she became one of the
twelve members of the Jedi Council shortly before the Battle of Naboo. She was known among the Jedi for her abilities of intuition and
information gathering, and maintained a vast network of informants across the planet of Coruscant. Through this network, she
discovered that the Trade Federation was building droid-controlled starfighters and was planning to blockade the small planet of Naboo,
in an effort to force the Old Republic to lift its taxation of trade routes. The Federation attempted to stop her on Esseles, but she was
rescued by Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi. She brought this information to the attention of Chancellor Valorum, who requested that
two Jedi be dispatched to Naboo to negotiate a settlement without the interference of the Senate. Although she chose not to use it
unless all other options had failed, Adi Gallia owned a crimson-bladed lightsaber. Her golden skin was accented by blue facial

Gama, Tira
this woman was a native of the Corellian colony world of Tralus. There, she met and married Denn Solo. She became pregnant shortly
before a group of raiding pirates began attacking the outer worlds of the Corellian System. She gave birth to twins just before Tralus
was attacked. She managed to flee the attack with a girl, whom she later named Tiion. Denn Solo fled with the other child, a boy, but
was never heard from again. When Tira returned to Corellia, her father wiped out all memories of Denn, to make it easier on his
daughter. (TPS)

Games, The
this series of military battles is staged among the warrior caste of Rabaanite society. The Games provide a way for warriors to test their
skills against other warriors, while weeding out the weaker opponents in search of the planet’s champion. The strongest and most
capable warrior is named the planet’s champion, and is sent to the Combat Moon whenever a dispute arises between Rabaan and
S’krrr. (SWJ9)
Gamgalon
a Krish crimelord who controlled the Morodin-hunting safari business on the planet Varont. He got much of his funding from Jabba the
Hutt, although he hated the fact that he had to work for Jabba. After Jabba's death, Gamgalon reclaimed his independence. His
business on Varonat was actually a front for his harvesting of Yagaran aleudrupe plants, and was highly illegal because Morodin were
sentient creatures. He paid off the local Imperial Moff to maintain his lucrative business, which involved fertilizing the aleudrope plants
with Morodin slime. This caused them to become a form of catalyst that could create blaster fuel that was even better than spin-sealed
tibanna gas. When Talon Kaarde discovered the operation, Gamgalon nearly eliminated the smuggler. However, in a standoff that
resulted in the death of Quelev Tapper, Mara Jade - also known as Celina Marniss - killed Gamgalon before he could execute Kaarde.

Gammalin
Fonterrat stopped at this planet, shortly after recovering the Emperor’s Plague from its Imperial storehouse. He unknowingly released
the plague, for Nolaa Tarkona had booby-trapped her payment with a small sample of the plague. When he opened the container after
landing on Gammalin, the plague was unleashed as he passed tainted credits to the human population. Tarkona used the trap as a way
of proving the plague’s effectiveness. The humans, after realizing what Fonterrat had done, threw him in jail. He languished there and
eventually died when his human captors succombed to the plague. (TEP)

this term of endearment was used on Brentaal to describe one's grandmother. (IDC)
Gamor Run
a legendary smuggling run that has been overrun by pirates and hijackers. (DE1)
Gamorr
this planet is the homeworld of the Gamorreans. It has a varied but temperate climate and ecology. The planet's poles are covered with
frozen tundra, while the equator is covered with deep forests and jungles. The average day on Gamorr lasts 28 standard hours, and its
year lasts 380 local days. There are very few large settlements on the planet, and the largest are controlled and populated by entire
clans of powerful females. (SWSB, COJ)
Gamorrean
a race of large, green, pig-like aliens from the planet Gamorr, their history is a violent and bloody one. The female Gamorreans handle
all of the necessary productive work while the males wage annual wars during the combat season. It is for this reason that the
Gamorrean society is matriarchal. Gamorrean genealogy is the science of a select group of females who memorize songs and sotries
that contain the complex history of each family. The six-breasted females often take a senior as well as a junior husband. They only
used primitive weapons during the combat season, saving their more advanced weapons for off-planet use. The males are broken up
into four castes: the warlord (the most powerful male of his clan, usually married to the matriarch), the clan boar (any other married
male that make up the clan's military leaders), the tuskers (unmarried males who have hired into a clan as warriors), and the veterans
(old, retired males who have more often than not been injured and can no longer fight). Gamorreans also have a deep-seated hatred of
droids. Their normal body temperature is 105 degrees. The planet Gamorr was eventually discovered by human traders, who were able
to force the Gamorreans into submission through a series of 'negotiations,' and took the Gamorreans with them as slaves, body guards,
soldiers, and bounty hunters. Jabba the Hutt employed a number of Gamorreans in his army. (ROTJ, SWSB, COJ, SWJ10)

Ganath
primary planet in the Ganath System, an undiscovered section of the galaxy that is cut off from the space near Nar Shaddaa by a huge
cloud of interstellar gas. Like the rest of the system, Ganath has lagged behind the rest of the galaxy in terms of its technology. They
are limited space travel capabilities, and have not yet developed a hyperdrive. Han Solo and Princess Leia stumble onto the Ganath
System while trying to escape from Boba Fett on Nar Shaddaa. (DE2)
Gand
1) a species of sentient life that has developed in the gases of the planet Gand. Able to survive in the various gases, they require
special breathing apparatus in order to survive in oxygen-based atmospheres. The lungs of the Gand are quite efficient, able to utilize
nearly 85 percent of the atmosphere they breathe in with each breath. The Gand have developed a totalitarian monarchy, and various
colonies of Gand live in pockets of mist in the gas giant's atmosphere. When renegade Gand are sought, findsmen are sent out to
locate them. When the Empire overran the planet, the findsmen were presented with advanced technology with which to hunt their
targets. The better findsmen became bounty hunters. The Gand hold their names in great reverence. A Gand who has accomplished
nothing in his life is simply known as "Gand." When a Gand completes a task, they are given their family's surname. A further
accomplishment provides the Gand with a proper name. Pronouns are almost never used, and are reserved for those famous Gand
who have accomplished so much that their deeds are known by all. If a Gand does something to be ashamed of, or causes offense to
another Gand, their name is reduced. It was discovered, after the Galactic Civil War, that the Gand have certain regenerative
properties. (MTS, XWN, WG, AE)
2) the planet Gand is a gaseous planet overrun by the Empire. It is home to the race of gas-breathers also called Gand. The Empire
brought in sophisticated sensory equipment, all but relegating the abilities of the findsmen to the arcane. (MTS, TBH)
Gandalla

Gandalom City
this large, urban area was located on the planet Corvanni IV, and was the home to many hi-tech businesses. (GG10)
Gandder’s Spin
this starfighter maneuver involves the pilot of a fighter shunting all power to one set of engines - port or starboard - and applying full
braking power to the opposite side vents. After a short period (about four seconds), brke power is cut to zero and thrust is cut in half
and spread across all engines. The result is that the fighter spins wildly for a few seconds around its center of mass before shooting off
on a new trajectory when the spin is stopped. Often, the maneuver is used as cover for a group of proton torpedoes fired at a target just
before the spin begins. (SOP)
Gandeal
this planet served as a partner planet to the military world of Fondor. Many of the raw materials needed by the Fondor shipyards were
obtained on Gandeal. (SWAJ)
Gandeal-Fondor Hyperlane
this hyperspace route was established by the Empire, in order to more efficiently move starships from Fondor to Coruscant. After the
Empire abandoned its facilities at Fondor, the route was rarely used because it was unknown to most independent spacers and
corporations. (JE)

Ganjuko
native to a number of planets in the Filve Sector, this huge beast is similar in many respects to the bantha. Both are large beasts, with
the average ganjuko standing more than three meters tall at the shoulder and measuring five meters in length. The body of the ganjuko
is covered with w thick pelt of fur. However, where the bantha is known as an easily-domesticated beast of burden, the ganjuko is an
easily-angered predator capable of killing any other creature it encounters. Their relatively small heads are nearly bald, and rangin in
color from red to orange. Their mouths are formed by a sharp beak, which they use to attack their prey. Their fur, coupled with layers of
fat beneath the skin, provide excellent heat-retention in cold climates, making the ganjuko a sluggish and weak creature in areas where
the temperature rises above the freezing point. They are long-lived creatures, reaching the age of 110 standard years, but produce just
four to eight offspring during this time. They were hunted as trophies, but more often than not the "trophies" were taken by the ganjuko
themselves. (COG)
Gank Killers

this star system was the last known location of the bounty hunter Tyrn Jiton. (WBC)
Gantoris
a descendant of the original colonists on Eol Sha, Gantoris was said to be sensitive to impending earthquakes, and was used by the
colony to predict them. When an avalanche occurred during his childhood, many of the children and adults with him were killed while he
remained safe from harm. Gantoris was later elected the leader of the colonists on Eol Sha. He was sought out by Luke Skywalker as a
potential Jedi for his remarkable past. Gantoris tested Luke's motives and found them truthful, and agreed to go with Luke to Yavin 4 for
training as a Jedi Knight. He was often at odds with Corran Horn, who was studying the Force under the alias of Kieran Halcyon. While
there, Gantoris was approached by the spirit of Exar Kun. Kun showed Gantoris how to construct a lightsaber well ahead of the training
Luke was providing, and also goaded Gantoris by telling him that there was more to learn the Luke's Light-Side prattle. Gantoris
resisted Kun's mental grip, and was killed by Kun's spirit. (JS, DA, IJ)
Ganzka

Gaph
this male Ryn was part of the group, led by Melisma, who was searching for Droma during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy.
Gaph and Melisma, along with Droma's nephew and another Ryn, were rescued from Gyndine but stranded on Ruan when there was
no other place to relocate refugees. The Ryn were approached by two men, known simply as Tall and Short, who wanted to secure
their services are forgers in order to create seemingly official documents which would allow high-paying refugees to obtain passage off
Ruan. Gaph used his skills at line drawing, which R’vanna used his calligraphy skills, to create the document. In return, the Ryn were to
be transported to Abregado-rae. Although the Ryn made it off Ruan, they missed Droma and Han Solo, who arrived shortly after their
departure and were arrested for the forgeries. Unfortunately for Gaph and the Ryn, they were stranded on Fondor by the crew of the
Trevee. (JE)
Gar
1) this Imperial Lieutenant served under Sil Sorannan as part of the Black Sword Command. He was one of the 513 survivors of the
Yevethan takeover, shortly after the Battle of Endor, and was imprisoned on Pa’aal. He worked with Sorannan to plot their eventual
escape from Yevethan control, and was one of the primary officers Sorannan took with him when the Imperials captured the Pride of
Yevetha and fled back to the Deep Core. (TT)

Garagon
this huge, two-headed reptile lived in the forested jungles of Koda's World, protecting the ancient temple of the Tempestro.At nearly
twenty meters in length, the reptile resembled a wingless dragon. When aroused, the garagon would bring one head up from hiding to
survey the situation. If needed, it would raise up its second head to attack more than one opponent. Each head, set upon a thick,
sinuous neck, was capable to belching fire at an enemy. The garagon could also attack with its heavy claws and sharp teeth. (GG8)
Garaint, Noval
this bounty hunter gained notoriety in the Outer RIm Territories while delivering slaves to Horch of Kheedar. During one such delivery,
the Empire invaded Kheedar. Seeing a chance to gain more power, Garaint freed the slaves and took control of Horch's castle. He
deftly avoided the Empire, and managed to quickly take control of Horch's empire. He left Horch to be nothing more than a sotted,
inebriated figurehead. Garaint is never seen in public without the protection of a suit of Krail 210 personal battle armor. (GG9)

this creature lives in the trees of the planet Yelsain. They were forced into contact with the humans who settled the planet, and fought to
maintain their homes. The skirmishes between them became popularized by holo-vids produced on Adarlon. (GG6)
Garbage Pits
these huge, open pits were located all over the planet Coruscant, and were two ways in order to eliminate the more than a trillion tons
of refuse produced on the planet each day. Most organic materials - food scraps, paper, light metals, and plastics - were actually
consumed deep within the pits by garbage worms. Materials which were too toxic to incinerate were placed inside sealed containers
and scheduled for transport. The energy from plasma generators was used to power an acceleration field which was used to fire the
containers into low orbit. Traffic throughout the planet's cityscape was re-routed around the pits, so that the speeding containers didn't
inadvertently destroy a taxi of liner. The containers in low orbit were collected by specialized tugs, and moved to one of Coruscant's
moons for more permanent storage. The pits themselves were protected from unwanted intrusion by a series of shields and energy
barriers. (RP)
Garbage Snipe
native to the planet Glottal, this bird-like creature is consumed by the Glottalphibs. (TNR)
Garbage Worm
these genetically manufactured creatures were vital to the elimination of waste on Coruscant. It was known that they were based on a
number of species of long worms from various other planets, but had been greatly altered by Coruscant's engineers over a period of
several hundred years. They lived deep within the garbage pits of the city-planet, wallowing in silicone-filled pools. As waste from the
city was dumped into the pits, it was pulverized and mixed into the silicone slurry. The worms then ate anything that they could. They
converted much of the waste into small pellets which could be used as fuels or stored. The rest was digested and eliminated as
methane, carbon dioxide, and organic wastes. Anything they couldn't eat - heavy metals, primarily - were expelled and sank to the
bottom of the garbage pits, where they were collected and sorted by garbage droids. These worms were covered with shiny, iridescent
scales of a milky white color. Rumor had it that a garbage worm could eat an entire hyperdrive core and survive ... for a few seconds.
The largest worms grew to lengths well over 100 meters, and were nearly four meters in diameter. (RP)
Garban
a planet located in the Tau Sakar System, it is the homeworld of the Jenet race. It was overtaken by the Empire, and the Jenet were

Gardulla
this Hutt was known by most of her kind as a female, and was one of Jabba the Hutt’s closest friends. There were also rumors of a
romance, as Gardulla was often Jabba’s guest at his Tatooine townhome. Gardulla owned many slaves, and was at one time the owner
of Shmi and Anakin Skywalker. However, she lost them in a bet with the Toydarian junk dealer, Watto, six years before Watto lost
Anakin to Qui-Gon Jinn in a similar wager. She offered to buy Anakin back from Watto, after the youth won the Boonta Eve Classic
podrace, but Watto was unable to secure Anakin before Qui-Gon whisked him away to Coruscant. Many knew that Gardulla maintained
a large, underground pleasure garden, complete with ponds and plantlife and streams. She paid Sebulba to acquire a group of
Ghostling children to serve as living statues in the gardens, shortly before the Battle of Naboo. She also planned to import creatures to
hunt the Ghostlings, as part of a cruel, living ecosystem. Unfortunately, her plans were thwarted by Anakin and his friends. Aurra Sing
later revealed that she had been hired by Gardulla to upset the plans of Jabba, in an effort to overthrow his control of Tatooine and
calim it for herself. Note that the comic adaptation of The Phantom Menace indicates that Gardulla was a male Hutt. (SW1, QGJ,

Garginoolaara
this Verpine, known as Gargi to his friends, grew up like any other Verpine in the Roche Asteroid Belt. However, his natural
inquisitiveness and inventiveness led him to tinker more than his peers. Many of his modifications were deemed too dangerous, even
for the Verpine themselves, and he was cast out by his hive. He wandered the galaxy until he met Fiz Cor’gril, who recognized his
abilities and hired him to work in his starship dealership. He keeps Fizzi’s merchandise in top condition, and sometimes a little better
than that. (SWJ9)
Gargolyn IV
this planet is the homeworld of the Cor race. It is known to be a garden paradise that is lush with animal life and vegetation. The planet

Much of the galaxy's phobium is also mined there. (ROTJN, GDV)
2) this old recluse faked his own death shortly after he single-handedly terraformed a world for himself to live on. He faked his death
because he didn't want his vast wealth and riches split up among his credit-hungry relatives. His false will demanded that all his living
heirs had to spend a full night in his mansion, which he had elaborately rigged up to provide scares and traps. This way, he could see
which of his heirs was most worthy, and could listen in on their discussions about him. He used his background in the theater to portray
his own butler, Jeeves, who had actually passed away several years before. (GMS)

Garn
this planet was described to Luke Skywalker by a vision of Obi-Wan Kenobi. He later intercepted a transmission which mentioned the
planet. Note that Classic Star Wars: Devilworlds indicates that Luke received this transmission while practising with his lightsaber
aboard his X-Wing! Luke travelled to Garn, which was a desolate world of craggy rocks and dead trees shrouded in a thick yellow fog,
and discovered a trove of ancient Jedi armor. The planet was barren because, several millennia before the Battle of Yavin, it was laid to
waste by the Jedi Knights, who strove to eliminate the Order of the Terrible Glare. He also discovered the Portal Desolate and the soul-
snares used to trap the life energy of ancient Jedi. He managed to destroy the portal and free the energies. (CSWDW)
Garn, Olin
this darkskinned man was a freelance freighter pilot who often contracted work with Twin Suns Transport Services. During his service
to Twin Suns, he became emotionally involved with Aeron Azzameen. However, he own ideals led him to break off his contract with
Twin Suns and join the Alliance as a pilot. The Azzameen family continued to maintain their relationship with Olin, considering him an
adopted member of the family. (XWA)
Garn, Ril
this Imperial Army Lieutenant was in command of the garrison on Yetnis, during the initial stages of Operation Rebel Hunt. He was
known as a by-the-books officer who could bend the rules to get what he needed. (HAS)
Garnant
a species of small, hard-working, purple insects native to Yavin 4. They communed with each other through vibration and scent. (DTO)
Garnet, Roark
a self-proclaimed galactic entrepreneur and adventurer, Roark was the captain of the Dorion Discus. His parents more or less disowned
him after he took up smuggling, and he struggled for many years to break even under the oppression of the Empire. (RPG, SWJ1)
Garnib
this planet, the primary world in the Garnib System, is the homeworld of the Balinaka, considered by many to be among of the galaxy's
most artistic beings. They enjoy a life of love and expression. The native race, the Balinaka, were subjugated by the Empire, but put up
no resistance or complaint. They paid their taxes and were only marginally garrisoned. The planet's day lasts 35 standard hours, and its
year lasts 432 local days. It is a cold world, covered in frigid oceans and glaciers. Despite its bleak appearance, Garnib had a certain
stark brutality which made it beautiful. (PG1)
Garnib Crystal Corporation
known on Garnib as the GCC, this was the primary source of Garnib crystals for the galaxy. Note that this is referred to as Galactic
Crystal Creations in Planets of the Galaxy, Volume One. (GMS, PG1)
Garnib Crystals
valuable gemstones found on the planet Garnib, Garnib crystals were rumored to have addictive properties. The original crystals were
formed when Vornest Dep-thesel Digarsarg incorporated colored pumice and small gemstone fragments into ice sculptures. The ice
sculpture shone with brilliant flashes of light refracting through the colored pumice and gemstones. Over the years, the creation of these
crystals has become its own form of art, with craftsbeings working each and every crystal into an individual work of art. These crystals
are not mass-produced, and each one is different. What makes them addictive is the swirling patterns of light thrown off when they
encounter sunlight. Many beings have been known to sit in from of them for hours, simply watching the display change as the sun
shifted position. Most physicians point out that the addiction is really just a short-term overstimulation of the optic nerve, but that certain
beings can become psychologically dependent upon the light. (PG1)
Garnoo
a Neti Jedi Master, Garnoo was Oss Willum's first teacher. (DLS)
Garonnin, Lord
one of the Senex Lords who followed Roganda Ismaren to Belsavis, hoping to ride her coattails and recover the Eye of Palpatine. He
was killed on Belsavis when Irek Ismaren cleaved him in half with a lightsaber. (COJ)

one of the ancient ruling houses in the Senex Sector, they have run a marginally-safe, asteroid strip-mining operation in the Outer Rim
Territories for a long time. (COJ)
Garoo
this was a term used by the Dantari to describe a member of their group who was something of a cross between a holy man and
magician. The garoo is believed to be able to speak with the spirits, and commanded great respect from his tribe. The garoo was the
nomial leader of his tribe, but was supported by five or six tribal elders in making decisions. (GOF11)
Garool
this creature is the Ergeshui muckworm, which inhabits the swamps of the planet. The garool fasten themselves onto the bodies of
creatures that pass through the swamp. Using their sharp teeth, the latch on and open a small wound. Through this wound, the garool
sucks out the victim's bodily fluids. (PG2)
Garoos
this alien race is easily distinguished by the purple-tinged gillis flaps they use to breathe. Note that Specter of the Past also spells this
as Garoosh. (SOP)
Garos IV
this thickly-forested world was settled by human colonists some 4,000 years ago. The inhabitants became self-sufficient due to Garos
IV's rich farmlands. A brisk trade developed between the Garosians and their neighbors, the Sundars, who were part of the colonization
effort. The Sundars developed technology, and the two worlds complimented each other. However, the Sundars have recently begun to
migrate to Garos IV, settling in the valleys and establishing factories and industrial centers. This emigration began about 200 years
before the Galactic Civil War, and raised the ire of the agricultural Garosians. When a Garosian grain facility was destroyed, the
resentment among the two neighbors bubbled over, and a civil war was started. It lasted 82 years until a truce was signed. The truce
was regularly violated until the Empire took control of the Garos System. The Garosians became strong supporters of the Alliance, and
held onto their beliefs until the New Republic took control. Once the rest of the galaxy came to realize that the University of Garos was
a top-notch school, more beings began traveling to Garos IV to attend classes there. An economic boom followed, as the students
created a need for virtually every service. The planet had two moons, and was located spinward of the Nyarikan Nebula. The average
day on Garos IV lasted 25 standard hours, and its year encompassed 382 local days. (SWJ1, SWJ12, DTR)
Garoush
a wealthy Rodian who frequents Issarga's space station. (RPG)
Garowyn
one of the Nightsisters accompanying Vonnda Ra when she seduced Dathomirian witches to join the Shadow Academy. She was a
powerfully-built, petite woman with long, brown hair. She earned the rank of Captain among Brakiss' Second Imperium troops. She took
control of Luke Skywalker and Tenel Ka, and transported them to the Shadow Academy. Luke feigned limited knowledge of the Force
to lull her into a false sense of security, then used the Force to physically fling her into an escape pod on the Shadow Chaser and set
her adrift in space. She returned to the Shadow Academy, and later helped Tamith Kai kidnap Zekk. When Brakiss launched his attack
on the factories of Kashyyyk, Garowyn submitted to Zekk’s leadership in order to gain an opportunity to recover the Shadow Chaser.
She nearly succeeded, but was thwarted when she discovered the ship had been damaged in an ion storm. In a struggle with
Chewbacca and Jaina Solo, Garowyn lost her footing in a tall wroshyr tree and plummeted to her death. (SA, LO, K)
Garqi
this unimportant Outer Rim world was under the control of the Empire for many years after the Battle of Endor. It was an agricultural
world that longed for its freedom. Because of the natural elements found in the planet's crust, the native plant life took on a purple
coloration, giving the planet a violet appearance from space. Corran Horn traveled to Garqi to escape Imperial entanglements after he
left the Corellian Security Force, and was known to the students of Garqi Ag University through his droid, Whistler, who went by the
handle of Xeno. He worked undercover as an assistant the Imperial prefect Mosh Barris, and helped a number of political prisoners
escape from the planet. Among the prisoners was Dynba Tesc and the the Duros trader, Lai Nootka. After the Yuuzhan Vong took
control of Destrillion and Dubrillion, they started working their way toward the Core. Along their initial route was Garqi, and the planet
was unprepared to put up any resistance. The Vong began reforming the planet as a breeding ground for Chazrach warriors. (TFE, KT,
DTR)
Garqi Eagles
this was the squadron name used by the Imperial pilots that were garrisoned on Garqi shortly after the Battle of Endor. (TFE)
Garr Suppoon
this intergalactic criminal was widely feared and respected as a negotiator. Jabba the Hutt once locked up with him, and tried to put out
a contract on Suppoon in order to eliminate his abilities. (JTH)
Garral
bipedal predators of the Wayland forests, garrals were used by the Empire to help guard Mount Tantiss. They are attracted by the
sounds of a repulsorlift, and most ultrasonic emissions will send them into a killing frenzy. Their native world was unknown, although it
was later discovered that they were biologically engineered by the Imperial scientist Luthos Garral by crossing a Mantessan panthac
with several other creatures. A normal garral measures about two meters in length, has grey fur, and has a short tail topped with tufts of
white fur. (DFR, TLC, TTSB)
Garral, Luthos
this Imperial scientist is credited with crossing a Mantessan panthac with several other vicious species to create the garrals. He
designed them to be vigilant sentries and guards. (TTSB)

Admiral Harkov. Darth Vader commanded the ship. It was also used to transport prisoners in the Yllotat System. (TIE)
Garret's Gold
an alias for the Etherway that Aves uses to enter Bilbringi. (TLC)
Garris, Keil
the son of Venadar Garris, Keil Garris was also an alias used by Han Solo. As Keil, he helped Venadar - actually Garris Shrike -
swindle wealthy Corellians out of their credits with a fake asteroid mining scam. Pavik Tharen eventually discovered that Han was really
Keil, and this precipitated Han’s flight from Corellia. (TPS)
Garris, Venadar
this alias was once used by Garris Shrike. Under the name of Venadar, he sold shares to wealthy Corellians in a fake duralloy asteroid
mining operation. He also used Han Solo in the cam, claiming him to be his son, Keil. The scam was eventually uncovered, but not
before Shrike made a tidy profit and went underground. (TPS)
Garris Socket
this is the standard interface on the rear end of a starship negative flow coupler. It fits onto a three-pronged slot. (CFG)
Garrison Moon
this is the single moon that orbits the planet Kessel. The Empire established a garrison station there, which was later taken over by
Moruth Doole. The moon has a normal day of 13 standard hours, and orbits Kessel's sun every 644 local days. (JS, COTF, JASB)
Garrmorl
this is a potent alcohol created by the Wookiees. (RD)
Garron

to overthrow the Imperial rulers of the planet. (TBSB)
Garsala
this is the fifth world in the Gorsh System, and is a volcanic wasteland. Like the other planets in the Gorsh System, Garsala is owned by
the Genetech Corporation. It had two natutal satellites. (PG1)
Gart, Breth
an Agamarian who joined the Alliance at the same time Keyan Farlander did. Gart aspired to be a fighter pilot, but suffered from
disorientation sickness early in his career. This kept him out of flight training on his first two attempts to join the ranks of the pilots. He
persevered, though, and overcame this weakness the third time. He completed his training with satisfactory skills, but was killed early in
the Galactic Civil War in an Alliance raid on Kalla VII. (XW)
Gartana
this is the fourth world in the Gorsh System, and is an oceanic world dotted with small islands. Like the other planets in the Gorsh
System, Gartana is owned by the Genetech Corporation. The waters of the planet are poisonous to many species. Gartana had twelve
moons. (PG1)
Garth
1) this was a Daan settlement once located in the northern half of Zehava city, shortly before the Eighteenth Battle of Zehva. The
Melida invaded it during the early stages of the Nineteenth Battle, herding the Daan into camps and executing thousands. (DOD)
2) this male Senali was Ganeed's husband, and a member of the Banoosh-Walore clan. (SP)
Garthol's Pain
this was an expletive used whenever a being was surprised. (ROE)
Gartogg
one of the Gamorreans serving Jabba the Hutt just prior to the crimelord's death, Gartogg was dim-witted even for a Gamorrean. Many
deaths went unnoticed by Gartogg, who was easily fooled into believing that the dead bodies were, in fact, asleep. Ree-Yees led
Gartogg to believe that the deaths of Ak-Buz and Phlegmin were part of a grand plot by Ephant Mon, and nearly missed the true nature
of the real plots brewing in the crimelord's palace. He stumbled into Dannik Jerriko, and discovered that Jerriko was an Anzat. Gartogg
tried to tell Ortugg that Jerriko was behind the strange deaths, but Ortugg believed that Gartogg was just being thick-headed, as usual.
Unfortunately, Gartogg was right: Jerriko was trying to consume Han Solo's soup, and was building up a plot to get him close to Solo.
Gartogg carried the bodies of Phlegmin and a B'omarr monk around as evidence, until the bodies were putrified and partially
mummified by the harsh Tatooine environment. Following the death of Jabba, Gartogg was often seen wandering around Mos Eisley
with his two "friends" in tow. (TJP)
Garu-bear
a creature known for its tenacious protection of its offspring. (BP)
Garvan
a deity referenced by Rars Lekfen. He uses an expletive that deals with Garvan's knees. (SWSB)
Garve
this drifter is one of the few who survived a stint as the caretaker of the Imperial base on Jellyfish Cove. A loner and a soldier of fortune,
the Empire approached him with the offer of easy payment for watching over the base until he was relieved. He nearly succumbed to
the wiles of the ethereal wraiths there. Bara discovered how to block the sunlight by using a trooper's uniform, and nearly had Garve.
Garve was able to escape to a landing prisoner ship, which he hijacked when it landed. Rather than let the wraiths attack the prisoners,
Garve took them with him to Tatooine. There, he set the prisoners free in the custody of Phlik. (TMEC)
Gas Gem
this rare stone is found in the atmosphere of the planet Bespin, where it is formed from the various gases which surround the planet’s
core. As the gases drop toward the core, they are compressed in various combinations, until small whorls form around minute particles.
The gravitational pressures compress the gases around the particles, formed strange, clear jewels that appear to continually shift and
change. (GCQ)
Gas Grenade
any offensive weapon that can be thrown or propelled into an enemy grouping, a gas grenade does not produce shrapnel when it
explodes. Instead, it releases stored chemical or biological gases into the enemy's breathing space. (TB)
Gas Vortex
this mining colony was established in the clouds of the gas giant Yhifar. The pressure of the atmospheric gases surrounding the station
makes living at the station very uncomfortable for most beings. (GG8)
Gascon
this planet was of particular interest to both the Alliance and the Empire during the Galactic Civil War. It was powerful and independent,
and had no fear of Imperial pacification. Likewise, it felt no need to assist the Alliance.However, the planet's location and natural
resources made it a valuable ally for either side. After the destruction of Alderaan, several grass-roots rebellions sprang up, hoping to
force the leaders of Gascon to side with the Alliance. (GMS)
Gasgano
this gangly alien was a Xexto from the planet Troiken, and was generally considered one of Tatooine’s best pod racers, although he
invariably lost races to Sebulba. (SW1, TPM, YJC1, IG1)
Gasser
this was the Gungan word for a stove or oven. (E1A11)
Gast, Edda
this Imperial doctor was one of the key figures in the genetic research of Project Chubar, performed at Binring Biomedical and
sponsored by Warlord Zsinj. Using the studies of her uncle as a starting point, Doctor Gast developed several new ways to take
humanoid alien species and manipulate their brains to make them smarter and meaner. Zsinj had hoped to create an army of aliens
which would help him better infiltrate the New Republic's ranks and destroy it from within. Gast, a native of the planet Saffalore, was
only too happy to help. One of her first subjects was the Gamorrean, Gamma-9104. After Zsinj learned of the escape of Gamma-9104 -
who called himself Voort saBinring - and the Ewok Kettch from her uncle's facility, he confronted Doctor Gast and Doctor Novin Bress.
He provided both with blasters to kill each other, as punishment for the escapes. Edda didn't hesitate, shooting Bress to maintain her
own existence. She was allowed to continue, but was eventually captured by agents of Wraith Squadron on Saffalore. Zsinj tried to kill
her with one of his brainwashed subjects, but Nawara Ven prevented that death by getting her injured body into a bacta tank quickly. In
return for a huge sum of credits and a new identity on Coruscant, she agreed to tell the Republic all about Zsinj's plans. She opted to
collect her payment in Imperial credits, and was accompanied to Coruscant with Ven himself as her bodyguard. This suited Ven just
fine, since Gast was arrested by Republic agents upon her arrival, on charges of trying to smuggle Imperial credits onto the planet for
seditious purposes. Her own cunning had backfired, and she was imprisoned. (SOC)
Gast, Tuzin
this man was employed by Binring Biomedical, and was one of the leaders in the Imperial experiment known as Project Chubar,
designed to create near-human intelligence in the galaxy's more primitive humanoid species. It was Tuzin who arranged for the Imperial
officer Zsinj to obtain a majority share in Binring's operations, and who described the usefulness of his experiements. However, over
time, Gast became too attached to his subjects, and feared for their existence in Imperial control. He staged a massive explosion in the
Epsilon Wing of the labs on Saffalore, hoping to sacrifice himself so that the creatures could escape. Warlord Zsinj's forces managed to
recover all but one of the subjects, either dead or alive, but this survivor was the Gamorrean Voort saBinring. Tuzin died in the
explosion, which his neice Edda claimed was a suicide. (SOC)
Gastess' Finance
this Outer Rim business is run by the despicable Gotal, Sarlim Gastess. This operation specializes in hostile takeovers of well-run
corporations. Gastess then fires ranking management, inserts its own managers, and restructures the company. A short while later,
Gastess will sell the "new" corporation for a huge, short-term profit. It is not usual to see Gastess break its own records on the Parmic
Sector Stock Exchange. The corporation is large enough to purchase entire planetary conglomerates, but has found them hard to
liquidate. (GG9)
Gasto
this New Republic Navy Midshipman served under Commander Zoalin aboard the Adamantine, and was killed by the Death Seed
plague while in orbit around Brachnis Chorios. (POT)
Gat

GAT-12g
this model of the standard Skipray Blastboat was armed with a tractor beam projector in place of the concussion missile launcher.
(FOP)
GAT-12h
the Sienar Fleet Systems designation for the Skipray blastboat, a 25-meter-long defense and patrol ship built for use by the Empire.
Although small, it had the power output to rank it as a capital ship. It was an exceptionally well-armed craft equally suited for
atmospheric and deep-space use. The rear section, containing the main drive, lasers, and stablizing wings, rotates around the axis of
the ship. The GAT-12h was introduced shortly before the Battle of Yavin, and was not immediately purchased by the Empire. So,
Sienar Fleet Systems began selling them on the open markte, where they were snapped up quickly by pirate and mercenary fleets.
The Skipray is equipped with the following shipboard components:
- 3 Mendarn Arms Dar-2 Medium Ion Cannons
- a proton torpedo launcher
- 2 Senko Systems' 5000 "Tru-Lok" laser cannons
- concussion missile launcher
- Sarylcorp ViX Multiflux Reactor
(ISB, EGV)
GAT-12i
this was the second generation of GAT-series Skipray Blastboat. It measured 25 meters in length, with a wingspan of 14.3 meters and
a height of 7.2 meters. It was similar in armament and sensor systems to the original GAT-12h, but had an improved Siep-Irol "Omni-
Vu" sensor system. (TTSB, EGV)
GAT-12j
the Sienar Fleet Systems designation for the third generation of the GAT-series Skipray blastboat, introduced shortly after the death of
Emperor Palpatine. It had larger ammunition bays for its missile launchers, allowing 12 proton torpedoes and 18 concussion missiles.
(JS, EGV)
Gata, Zanza
this man served as an inspector for the Imperial Office of Criminal Investigation during the height of the New Order. He had an
exceptional record with the IOCI, bringing years of experience and an 84-percent success rate in tracking down his quarry into many
investigations, including the search for the thief know as the Tombat. He was given the task by IOCI Director Jacen Corbit, at the
behest of Imperial Moff Landric. (SWJ8)

this was the nickname Wedge Antilles gave to his R5 astromech droid, following the droid's memory wipe. It was formerly known as
Mynock. (BW)
Gatebeast
this Charon bio-construct was formed from a lifeform which existed on the Charon homeworld centuries ago, but was exterminated by
the Charon death cults. The machinations of the gatebeast were not fully understood by the Charon bioscientists, but they managed to
program it to perform certain duties. The gatebeast is used as a defensive tool, for it has the ability to control an attacker’s position. Any
creature targetted by the gatebeast can be “gated” back to a position it occupied a short time before. This seems to be a limited for of
teleportation, but the Charon have not fully discovered how the gatebeast performs the movement. (OS)
Gatekeeper
a Jedi Master whose image is stored within a Jedi Holocron, the Gatekeeper is the primary access point for whoever is using the
Holocron. (TOJ)
Gateway
this was one of the many domed cities which sprang up on the surface of the planet Duro, to house refugees fleeing the Yuuzhan Vong
invasion of the galaxy. The dome, like other such refugee cities, was located beneath one of Duro’s twenty orbital stations, protected by
the planetary shield that contained the station. Gateway was constantly at odds with Settlement Thirty-two, as each dome tried to obtain
the other’s supplies in an escalating struggle to feed its inhabitants. (BP)
Gatherers
this is a nickname used by operatives of the Bureau of Ships and Services. They are a non-descript group, wearing no uniform to
identify themselves as part of BoSS. The Gatherers are responsible for tracking down and apprehending individuals who falsify their
starships’ transponder codes. (CFG)

Gatonne, Resh
this man was a native of Bonadan, and was a bounty hunter during the last days of the Old Republic. His son, Yarr, eventually followed
in his footsteps. (GG10)
Gatonne, Yarr
a native of the planet Bonadan and the son of Resh Gatonne, Yarr Gatonne was a bounty hunter who worked in the Testarr Sector
during the early years of the New Republic. He learned everything he knew about bounty-hunting from his father. As a mode of
operation, Yarr would capture the contacts and friends of his target, interrogate them, then pose as the contact in order to capture his
bounty. His only weakness was a fascination with rare and valuable gemstones, and could be lured into a hunt by the possible payment
in gemstones. (WBC, GG10)
Gatral
this bounty hunter was one of several who accompanied Crutag to Trinta, in pursuit of a team of Alliance agents they encountered on
Kwenn Space Station. Gatral and his team were eventually killed by the dreamscapes and dreambeasts of Halagad Ventor before they
could capture the Alliance agents. They were "resurrected" by Ventor as dreambeasts and sent after the Alliance team. (DOE)
Gatrellis
this corporation specialized in the creation of highly-specialized explosives, such as plasticene thermite. (ROE)
Gatsori, Jarina
this woman was a reporter for the Andasala Achievement News agency. (GG11)
Gatterweld
this man suddenly appeared aboard the Razor's Kiss, after it was stolen from Kuat Drive Yards by Warlord Zsinj. Zsinj knew he wasn't
part of the security detail he'd sent to the ship, but Ensign Gatterweld nevertheless took control after the death of Captain Raslan during
the ship's flight from Kuat. However, Gatterweld was unable to defend the huge ship from the massed firepower of the Mon Remonda
and the Tedevium, and the Razor's Kiss was destroyed. However, Gatterweld was rescued from the destruction and rewarded for his
bravery and loyalty to Zsinj. He became part of Zsinj's security force aboard the Iron Fist, and was later assigned to escort Gara
Petothel around the ship. Zsinj didn't trust Gara, who recently had been known as Lara Notsil and a member of the New Republic.
Gatterweld kept close tabs on her, but was unable to discern her true activities aboard the ship. When she escaped him and released
the test subjects of Project Chubar, Gatterweld tried to stop her. The creatures she had released attacked him, but she would not allow
them to kill him. He was bound up and left behind. (IF, SOC)
Gauch
one of the many pilots who worked for Lando Calrissian in the asteroid belt known as Lando's Folly, Gauch was one of the first pilots

during a breif battle of Exodo II, in which the Yuuzhan Vong priestess Elan was recovered. (HT)
Gaurick
this Corporate Sector world is controlled by a religious cult. Han Solo and Chewbacca once ran chak-root to the workers of this planet,
since the substance held some religious taboos. They ran the substance for Big Bunji, who agreed to pay for their expenses as part of
their salary. The chak-root runs became more and more difficult as the religious leaders - known as muftis - took notice of them, until
one run was intercepted. The Millennium Falcon sustained considerable damage, and Han was forced to dump his load in order to
escape. He got the Falcon repaired, since Big Bunji agreed to pay for all expenses. However, he soon received a bill from Big Bunji for
all the repairs as well as the dumped chak-root. Both Han and Chewie were livid, and in return for Big Bunji's bill, they strafed the
crimelord's compound with the Falcon's new weapons. (CSA)

Gazar
this was the word used to describe a member of the Gazaran race. (PG1)
Gazaran
an alien race native to the planet Veron, the Gazaran were intelligent, gliding reptiles that were extremely friendly and eager to please.
It was this trait that helped them escape the brunt of the Empire's pro-human stance, since the Gazaran offered no resistance to
Imperial rule. They were strictly herbivores, and lived in the fevvenor trees of the Veron rainforest, establishing vast cities in their
branches. At the height of the Galactic Civil War, the Gazaran had achieved minimal level of technology and industry, mainly geared
toward the production of items needed by the tourists who visited Veron. Each Gazar was given a name which described the city they
lived in, their status in the city, and the names of their parents. Thus, the name of a particular Gazar could change over time. The
average Gazaran was highly superstitious, and afraid of the larger creatures of the Veron rainforest. Each Gazaran city was ruled by a
female who had given birth to at least twelve litters, and other females held positions of power because of their ability to give birth.
Males, by contrast, were responsible for gathering food and protecting the females. (PG1, AE)

ship with a promise to return with help, and took a Skipray Blastboat. He had nearly predicted the ship's automatic firing pattern, but a

importing of technology or knowledge was harmful to the General Good. Every member of society was held in equal regard, and every
person was considered a member of a single family. It was believed that each Keganite had a Guide Within, which was their spirit and
lifeforce, and tied them into the General Good. The General Good wasn't complete unless every Guide Within was united with each
other. To indicate a Keganite's dedication to the General Good, each person placed a letter before their given name - a V for men and

bond, and then only in private. (FFT)

of Dathomir, and felt that her mother's power was weak. Gethzerion made a power play to take control of the Singing Mountain clan,
hoping to kill Augwynne but actually killing Kara'teel instead. Gethzerion's actions were discovered, but Gethzerion was freed by Baritha

Ghecharo
this arrogant noble once traveled to Neftali, in order to secure the services of Kaori Batta in hunting down an ice modrol. A former
military officer, Ghecharo fancied himself a big-game hunter. Batta bristled at Ghecharo’s attitude, but agreed to lead the hunt. Despite
his lean build, Ghecharo was inadequately prepared for the rigors of Neftali’s environment, and whined incessantly about the time it
took to actually locate an ice modrol. When they did finally locate one, it had been injured, and Batta refused to track it for fear of attack.
Ghecharo called Batta a coward and set out on his own to kill the beast. Unfortunately, Ghecharo was as stupid as he was arrogant,
and when he ingited a lumalamp to see into the cave, he gave away his position to the ice modrol. The angry creature attacked with
incredible swiftness, killing Ghecharo instantly. Ghecharo’s assistant, Kleck, barely escaped. (WSV)
Gheeta
this Shell Hutt was climbing the social ladder when he was confronted with a great challenge. He was placed in charge of the main
planetary reception and diplomatic terminal, to be used by the Shell Hutts to receive and negotiate with visitors. Gheeta was given an
unlimited budget, and selected Emd Grahvess as his architect. Grahvess was considered the galaxy’s best, freelance architect at the
time, rivalling those employed by Emperor Palpatine and Prince Xizor of Black Sun. However, Gheeta had planned to kill Grahvess
once the job was complete, thereby removing the need to pay him for the work. Grahvess, to his credit, was aware of the Shell Hutt’s
duplicity, and arranged to have a bounty placed on his own head. The bounty stipulated that he could be taken once the project was
complete. Boba Fett took the bounty, but also arranged a few deals with Grahvess himself, placing weapons and explosives within the
diplomatic center’s columns and walls. Gheeta, robbed of his prey, was forced to pay for Grahvess’ work and re-design the complex’s
security systems. The ease with which Fett penetrated the complex and captured Grahvess proved that his original plans were nowhere
near what the Shell Hutt elders had requested, and this dropped him well down in the social structure. Thus, Gheeta developed a deep-
seated hatred for Boba Fett, and vowed to kill the bounty hunter. To this end, he formed a web of plots and plans that came to a head
with the arrival of Oph Nar Dinnid. In a fit of anger, Gheeta secretly killed Dinnid before any information could be extracted from him, but
continued to act as if the comm handler were still alive. This ensured that Fett would come for the bounty on his head. When Fett and
his companions arrived, Gheeta made a great show of one-upping the bounty hunter, revealing the long-dead body of Dinnid. This
angered Nullada, who became outraged at the loss of credits. Gheeta tried to placate the older Shell Hutt by explaining that the death
of Dinnid was compensated by the Narrant System liege-lords. Then, ignoring the elder Hutt’s admonitions, Gheeta brought out a legion
of hired mercenaries to eliminate the bounty hunters. However, Fett activated the weapons and opened the storage systems and wiped
out the diplomatic complex. Near the end of the battle, Boba Fett took D'harhan’s laser cannon and shoved it into Gheeta’s shell.
Pointing the apparatus skyward, Fett fired the weapon. Gheeta was killed instantly, as his shell exploded under the force of the blast.

reign of Grand Admiral Thrawn. Following Thrawn’s death and the formation of the Smuggler’s Alliance, Ghent chose to join the New
Republic, and eventually worked his way up to the position of Chief of Cryptography for the New Republic Intelligence agency. In this
position, he was able to reconstruct the offer of a peace treaty negotiation that was supposed to have been delivered from Colonel
Vermel to Garm Bel Iblis, before Vermel was captured by Captain Dorja and the Relentless. He was accompanied to Pakrik Minor by
the Caamasi Elegos A'kla, whose descriptions of the destruction of Caamas and the need for justice without hatred and punishment
without revenge struck a chord in the man. Ghent agreed to accompany General Hestiv to Yaga Minor, to recover a copy of the
Caamas Document, as a first step in the new peace between the Empire and the New Republic. He was present at the station when
Garm Bel Iblis arrived with his own assault force, hoping to steal a copy of the Document. Later, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of
the galaxy, Ghent served as an intelligence expert for the New Republic. (DFR, HTSB, HTTEC, SOP, VOF, BP)

core. (CCG4)
Ghest
this reptilian predator was native to the planet Rodia, and was legendary among the Rodians for wiping out entire villages of primitive
Rodians. A large creature which could attain lengths of six meters or more, the ghests live and hunt in the water. The ghest had huge
eyes and a large mouth filled with razor-sharp teeth. Its four feet were heavily clawed, and its skeleton is made of cartilage rather than
bone. They hunted by floating along in the water with just their eyes above the surface, exploding out of the water to ambush their prey
and – in many cases – swallow it whole. They have no natural enemies, and even the bloodthirsty Rodians feared to hunt them unless
it was required to remove a curse or bring a halt to a famine or drought. (KO, COG)

Gholondreine-β
this planet was once a vibrant, ocean-covered world with strong ties to the Old Republic. Upon instituting the New Order on the planet,
the leaders of the various governments chose to move slowly, retaining as many of the freedoms they once enjoyed. This delay in the
implementation of the New Order was discovered by Emperor Palpatine, who decided that an example had to be made. As punishment,
Palpatine ordered all the water from the planet to be exported to Coruscant, where it would augment that planet’s already-poor supply.
This left Gholondreine-β as an arid desert wasteland. Many of the planet’s natives moved to other inhabited worlds in the nearby
systems to escape the dying world. It was on this planet that Boba Fett and Bossk agreed to team up in order to collect the bounty on
Trhin Voss’on’t. (SLS)
Ghorin

treason by Darth Vader. He had a vast castle on the planet Plooriod IV. (XW)
Ghorman
primary planet in the Ghorman System, it was the site of a massacre in which the newly-named Emperor Palpatine wiped out the
planet's populace. Located in the Sern Sector, just outside the Core Worlds, Ghorman's populace was wiped out for no apparent
reason, other than to help Palpatine establish his evil presence in the galaxy. Note that Rebellion places Ghorman in the Sesswenna
Sector. The massacre was a rallying cry for early leaders of the Alliance, including Mon Mothma. The Empire later established a base
there. When the Alliance learned of the base's construction, it sent out a squadron of starfighters, which eliminated a number of supply
ships and delayed the completion of the base for an entire year. (RASB, XW, REB)

touch of a human almost certainly means death to them. Even given this fact, though, many ghostlings desire to enter physical
relationships with humans. Most ghostlings have green-gold hair and shiny, tan skin. During the last years of the Old Republic,
Ghostling children were sought after as pets or slaves by many of the galaxy's less reputable beings, because they were extremely
beautiful and hard to find. Ghostlings are native to the planet Datar. They lived in nests formed from creeper vines and leaf material,
which hung from the branches of the bayah trees. (CS, E1A5)
Ghtroc Industries
an Outer Rim corporation that produced a series of stock freighters for general use. Their initial designs, including the Class 580 and

this inexperienced Mon Calamari was a Commander in the New Republic, served as Pash Cracken's commanding officer while on
station at the planet Xyquine. When the Empire attacked the New Republic there, Gingal was unsure how to retreat. He began to order
the fleet to retreat, but Cracken interrupted him before he could broadcast orders to the entire fleet - and to the Imperials waiting to

the tourist group which was aboard the ship, and that the ship's Captain and chief engineers were the first to be killed in attacks by the
Irrukiine, when Rogue Squadron was dispatched to locate the ship. In reality, Girov was a master of Jeswandi, and killed the shi's
Captain in order to take control of the situation. When several members of Girov's group attacked Nrin Vakil, the Rogue discovered that
the Bothans were extremely good at hand-to-hand combat - skills not normally found in a group of shipwrecked tourists. When Dllr Nep

location for Alliance Special Operations forces in the sector, as well as a listening post which spied on the nearby Imperial Navy
installation. (HAS)
Glittering Mynock
this species of mynock is slightly less revolting, although equally annoying, as its deep-space cousin. The main difference is in the skin.
A glittering mynock’s skin will begin to shine and glitter as it sucks power from a battery or other source. The more power it absorbs, the
more intense the glittering becomes. (TSK)
Glitterstar
one of several luxury liners which brought the wealthy and powerful to Alakatha, the Glitterstar flew regularly from the resort world to
Coruscant during the early years of the New Republic. It was attacked by Phan Riizolo and the Booty Full, a move that Rogue
Squadron belived was backed by Leonia Tavira. However, Riizolo had actually severed ties with Tavira, and was operating on his own.

Glitterstim
the form of spice mined on Kessel, it is a byproduct of the digestion of the spice grub. In its inert form, it is carried in small, transparent,
black fibers. The fibers are almost alive, and twist and curl after being removed from their rocky veins. It takes a delicate hand to uncurl
the fibers, because - although they are flexible - are also very brittle. Individual fibers are stored in light-tight containers. This work is
time- and labor-intensive, and contributes directly to the high cost of glitterstim on the market. When exposed to light it ripens,
becoming a pearly-blue color when ready for use. When consumed, it crackles and sparks due to contact with the light and saliva. It is
the only known form of spice which heightens the user's latent mental powers. A user who consumes too much glitterstim often goes
blind, and the substance is known to drive a Bith mad. (JS, JASB, TPS)

Gnullith
this star-shaped creature was genetically altered by the Yuuzhan Vong to serve as a form of breathing apparatus. When applied to the
user's face, the gnullith sealed itself to the skin and extended one of its appendages down the user's throat. This provided a way to
pass breathable air into the user's lungs. Two other appendages closed off the user's nose, protecting against intrusion of the foreign
atmosphere. The gnullith allowed the Yuuzhan Vong to travel underwater and in toxic environments without pause. The New Republic's
military forces discovered that a warrior wearing a gnullith could be killed if a shot was placed in the very center of the gnullith's body.

architects, and built huge ziggurats in the deep jungles of the planet. While many of the stepped pyramids had rooms and
passageways, several were completely solid. It was these ziggurats which were built to contain the deadly viruses the Gobindi
discovered in the jungles. They were wiped out by one such virus, known as the Gobindi virus, but not before they discovered a way to
cure it. In their dying actions, they carved the formula for the antidote into the ziggurat's walls. (GOF3)
Gobindi Virus
this deadly strain of virus was discovered by the ancient Gobindi race, which eventually contracted it and was wiped out by it. It was re-
developed by the Empire's Biological Warfare Division for use as a weapon. A sample of the virus was entombed in a huge ziggurat,
built by thre Gobindi in an effort to stop it from spreading. Before they were all killed by the virus, the Gobindi managed to discover a
cure for its actions. However, they were unable to administer it in time. they managed to carve its formula on the stepped walls of the
ziggurat, in case the virus escaped. It thrives in hot, humid envirnments, but was initially not very contagious, requiring a liquid medium
to move from one host to the next. Imperial scientists discovered a way to allow to move through the air. The virus itself resembled a
tiny, horned eel, and wrapped its host in a coating of green slime to maintain its environment. This slime allowed the host to move
about, thereby increasing the chances of further transmission. (GOF3)

Golden Globe
this mysterious, glowing orb was discovered by the Jedi Master Ikrit some 385 years before the Battle of Yavin. He was unable to
penetrate its force field, and the energy radiating from it told him that no adult Jedi would be able to either. So, he curled himself up at
the base of the sphere and guarded it until a young Jedi would appear to solve its riddle. This Jedi turned out to be two youngsters,
Anakin Solo and Tahiri. They were able, with Ikrit's help, to determine that the Globe held the spirits of thousands of Massassi youths
trapped by Exar Kun four millennia before. The Globe could only be opened by a youthful Jedi. Adult Jedi would destroy the Globe and

Golden Sun
a living community of sentient coral polyps on the planet Sedri. They are Force-sensitive, and use it along with their numerous minds to
produce a continual source of energy for the colony. The polyps that make up the Golden Sun are revered by the Sedrians, and the
Sedrian priests have some Force sensitivity and can sometimes communicate with the coral polyps. The huge mass of polyps, all in
contact with the Force, has tended to create massive gravity readings near the planet, causing hyperspace travel near the planet to be
somewhat hazardous. The organism gives off a golden glow as it lives, and the planet Sedri appears to glow brightly when viewed from
space. The energy produced by the Golden Sun has a limited ability to heal another living organism. When the Sedrian priests enclosed
the caves of the Golden Sun in the domed city of Fitsay, the Golden Sun was not amused. This construction cut off much of the water
supply to the polyps, reducing the amount of food they could obtain. The Golden Sun has been trying to find a way to get rid of the
priests without causing damage to itself ever since. If a piece of the Golden Sun were broken off, it would produce a sonic wave of pain
that cut through the mind of most living beings. The piece would stop glowing and turn a dull green as the living polyps went into a
hibernation trance, waiting to be reunited with the main body of the Golden Sun. When Pek, Fala, and a group of Alliance agents tried
to capture Karak, they were able to link their minds to that of the Golden Sun. They all realized that the only way for the Sun to survive
would be to scatter itself across the planet's oceans, reducing its power and breaking Karak's will. With a great effort, the Golden Sun
actually exploded, freeing itself from the Great Shell Dome and scattering new colonies across the surface of Sedri. Over time, the
Golden Sun eventually recovered its strength. (GG4, BGS)

a huge, humanoid behemoth native to the Forest Moon of Endor, it is an ape-like monster with long, black hair, large, tufted ears, and a
pig-like snout. It is carnivorous, and preys on any living creature is can get its hands on. The gorax lives in the limestone mounds that
are found beyond the Desert of Salma. The average gorax stands almost thrity meters tall, which allows it to reach the tree-villages of
the Ewoks and capture them for food. Sometimes, a gorax will capture Ewoks simply as pets. The gorax keeps a ready supply of food,
as indicated when one captured Jeremitt and Catarine Towani and kept them caged for later consumption. Cindel and Mace are able to
rescue their parents from the Gorax, with the help of the Ewoks. The Gorax was killed when it fell from into an underground chasm.

Gorga
this minor Hutt was Jabba’s nephew, and spent much of his early years fawning and grovelling at his uncle’s feet in hopes of obtaining
some small part of Jabba’s empire. When Jabba died, Gorga was given control of Jabba’s bank holdings. In a cruel twist, Jabba had
actually bequethed to Gorga a small bank, which contained a lowly button. Later in life, Gorga became smitten with the beautiful H'uun,
Anachro. He employed Boba Fett to kill Bar-Kooda, as a present to Anachro's father, Orko. Orko and Gorga had never been friends,
and Gorga hoped to remedy that and take Anachro's hand in marriage if Bar-Kooda could be eliminated. Fett succeeded, and returned
Bar-Kooda’s body to Gorga. Gorga had his chefs prepare the body as the main course in a feast at which he asked for Anachro’s hand
in marriage. When Orko learned just who dinner was, he heartily agreed to let Orko marry Anachro. They were married on Tatootine,
and honeymooned on Skeebo. It was on Skeebo that Anachro was kidnapped and held for ransom by the Skavers and Kaptain Voor.
Gorga once again called on Boba Fett, who was able to eliminate the Skavers and Voor, as well as Bar-Kooda’s older brother, Ry-
Kooda, before rescuing Anachro. Just as Anachro discovered she was pregnant, Gorga hired Boba Fett to kill off Orko. He immediately
regretted the decision, because he knew it would upset Anachro and complicate the pregnancy, thereby reducing the chances that he
would have an heir. In the confusion that followed, Orko was killed by Ry-Kooda, who had come to exact his own revenge. The Koodan
then turned to Gorga and Anachro, but Boba Fett managed to kill off the Koodan before any damage could be done. Shortly afterward,
Anachro gave birth to a strong Huttlet. (BF, TJT)

Gornt
a farm animal native to Pakrik Minor, gornts originated on the world of Hethar. The Empire annexed Hethar shortly before the Battle of
Yavin, and discovered that these ungainly omnivores could be raised for their flesh, which was sweet, juicy,and highly nutritious.
Packaged gornt meat was later added to the rations given to soldiers. The average gornt grew to be a meter or more in length, and had
a body which was supprted by huge hind legs and small forelimbs. Their heads were topped with a single horn, and their jaws were
frilled with short tendrils. Gornts would eat just about anything, and could digest it with relative ease. This made their flesh highly
nutritious, and led to a booming business in raising gornts for meat. Over the years since the Empire annexed Hethar, gornt stocks
have been mismanaged. Genetically, there is little variation remaining, and the quality of gornts being produced is sharply declining.
(SOP, COG)
Gornt Seron
this Hethas gangster maintained a base on the planet Korbin during the early years of the New Republic. Known as Seron's Castle, it
was located in the equatorial mountains of the planet. He was the son of lowly criminals stranded on the planet, but was able to amass

and offered to return it for 200,000 credits. The ransom was paid, but the information was never returned. (WBC)
Goroth Prime
this planet, the homeworld of the Gorothite race, was once a lush, forested world. It was devastated during the Aqualish-Corellian War
in an event the Gorothites referred to as The Scouring. Over the centuries, the Gorothites adapted to the toxic chemicals which were
thrown into the atmosphere. (AE)
Gorothite
this race of reptilian humanoids was native to the planet Goroth Prime. Their large heads were dominated by a bulging brain case, and
a series of wattles at their throats were filled with air to form distended sacs. These sacs and wattles were heavily tattooed, and used to
display the lineage of an individual Gorothite. Their beady eyes are set back into their skulls, and their sloping foreheads given them a
formidable appearance. Their forearms had an extra joint, giving them a flopping appearance. Xenoarchaeologists have discovered that
the Gorothites evolved from predatory carnivores who had just discovered sentience when the planet Goroth Prime was nearly
destroyed in an event known as The Scouring. The Gorothites were forced down another evolutionary path in order to survive the toxic
chemicals thrown into the atmosphere after The Scouring. Marriage and monogamy were unheard of concepts on Goroth Prime, as
each j'ber, or clan, strove to strengthen its numbers over the centuries. However, mating between individual j'ber clans was forbidden.

2) a humanoid race which possesses a limited ability to sense the Force, the Gotal have grey fur, and two cone-like horns on top of
their heads. These horns are actually nerve-filled receptors that register the presence of infrared, radio, light, and electromagnetic
emissions. These cones also have the ability to sense the presence of the Force as a vague buzzing. They come from a moon called
Antar 4, and have an instinctual distrust of droids, for the droids' energy emissions foul up their sensitive horns. The Gotal have come to
rely on their cones for a great many things and, as a consequence, they have a hard time interpreting the emotions of other races. This
problem is rumored to have led to the Duinuogwuin-Gotal conflict. The one emotion most Gotal are sure of is love, and falling in love at
first sight is a common occurance among prospective mates. When two Gotals mate, they do so for life and begin raising a family as
soon as possible. The Gotal are a race of hunters, and have little or no political affiliations. They have one of the few societies which
exists in a peaceful anarchy. The Gotal resisted entry into the Old Republic, but had absolutely no desire to join the Empire. (SW, TLC,

this man was generally considered the greatest freelance architect of the New Order, outside of those beings hired by Emperor
Palpatine himself. When the Shell Hutts ordered Gheeta to design and build a new diplomatic complex, Gheeta was given an unlimited
budget with which to hire Grahvess. However, Grahvess was no dummy. He caught wind of Gheeta’s plans to kill him once the job was
complete, thereby eliminating the need to pay the architect. In a bold move, Grahvess put out a huge bounty on his own head,
eventually employing Boba Fett to ensure he was recovered from Circumtore before Gheeta could execute him. In deference to part of
the bounty, Fett asked Grahvess to install secret weapons systems and storage compartments in the main hall of the diplomatic
complex, for later use in dealing with the Shell Hutts. The plan worked to perfection, and Grahvess escaped the Shell Hutts’ grasp.

an insect native to Nal Hutta, the Hutts roasted them and ate them as a delicacy. (DS)
Graiveh
native to the planet Ealor, this species of tall, furred humanoids was on the cusp of gaining true sentience for several millennia. They
lived in groups of 30 to 40 individuals, and were hunters by nature. Their "society" was based on survival of the fittest, with the
strongest hunters being allowed to continue the species. They exhibited several traits which indicated they worked for the betterment of
their species, including the protection of the young and the females during battle. Graiveh mate for life, and families remained intact for
several generations. However, graiveh seemed to understand that genetic diversity would help ensure their survival, so offspring were
often exchanged among families in different groups to expand the gene pool. (COG)
Grake
Grake was a Veubg, enslaved by Hethrir and forced to work in the kitchens of the worldcraft Hethrir used for his Empire Youth camp.
Grake took great pride in her work, and could not stand to serve the children the thin gruel Hethrir demands. She took every opportunity

Grammel
an Imperial army Captain-Supervisor on Circarpous V, Grammel was known for his ruthless and sadistic behavior. He has pale skin, a
growing paunch, and a droopy moustache. His voice has been described as similar to "a piece of machinery long overdue for
lubcrication." When he alerted Essada about the existence of the Kaiburr crystal and the presence of Leia Organa on Circarpous V,
Essada alerted Darth Vader, who arrived on the planet and ordered Grammel to take Luke and Leia prisoner. The attack failed
miserably, and Grammel tried to make the right excuses to appease Vader. Vader had none of it, and bisected Grammel with his
lightsaber. (SME)
Gran
a race of three-eyed humanoids native to the planet Kinyen, the Gran have tan skin. Their eyes are set out away from their heads on
thick stalks, and they have large ears. Their eyes are adapted for seeing into the visible spectrum as well as the infrared spectrum.
They evolved from a herbivorous species, and have two stomachs to digest their food. The females have three breasts, which they use
to suckle their young. In general, Gran are peaceful and hospitable, and no conflicts have been noted in their 10,000 year history. They
are strongly attached to their families and their race in general; all Gran mate for life, with the survivor usually dying of a broken heart
shortly after its mate's death. Their infrared sight allows the Gran to detect their companion's emotional state. The Gran race was
hesitant to join the galactic community of the Old Republic, fearing that they would become diluted by huge distances. They remained
isolated from the Republic, for the most part, and the Old Republic respected their wishes. After the birth of the New Order, the Gran
organized peaceful protests against Palpatine’s rule. However, they were quickly subjugated by the Empire. On their own, the Gran
developed space travel, and have developed a healthy trade route with the Herglics. (GG12, TJP, CCG7)
Grand
this was New Republic fighter pilot slang for a Yuuzhan Vong grand cruiser. (DTR)
Grand Admiral
this was the highest rank an Imperial Navy officer could reach. At the time of the Battle of Endor, there were only twelve Grand Admirals
in the Navy. They were distinguished from other Imperial officers by their stark, white uniforms. The Alliance maintained records of each
Grand Admiral's whereabouts, in order to ensure that they didn't get a chance to rally Imperial forces. Among the twelve known Grand
Admirals at that time were Grunger, Makati, Takel, Teshik, Thrawn and Rufaan Tigellinus. By the time the Imperial Remnant agreed to
a peace treaty with the New Republic, Pellaeon was believed to the only surviving Grand Admiral, a rank he had earned well after the
death of Thrawn. (GDV, HTTE, SWJ8, SESB, VOF, FOP)

Grand Corridor
located in the Imperial Palace on Coruscant, the Grand Corridor is a tree-lined path that leads to the many assembly halls and meeting
rooms used by the Empire and the New Republic. It was built by Emperor Palpatine to link the Council Chamber and the Assemblage
auditorium. It intersects the hallway housing the senatorial suites and offices. Palpatine then added the multi-hued ch'hala tress that line
it, and thus created the eavesdropping system known as Delta Source. (DFR)
Grand Council
this was the name given to the highest court of Senators in the New Republic. (POT)
Grand Cruiser
this was the New Republic's designation for the largest of the Yuuzhan Vong warships. Later models, used in battle after the

Grand Hypergate
located in the ruins outside the city of Satikan, on the planet Asation, this Gree hypergate is thought of as the last remnant of the most
ancient and forgotten days of Gree civilization. The Grand Hypergate is actually a circle of seven archways surrounding a central
obelisk. The archways are individual hypergates, and the obelisk seems to serve as their control point. The gatemaster of Satikan no
longer remembers how to use the Grand Hypergate, although he tries on weekly basis to discover their modes of operation. This
weekly attempt to activate the hypergate has taken on a ritualistic feeling. The gatemaster does know, though, that two of the seven
gates terminate on Gree, one on Te Hasa, one on Malanose, and a fifth on Licha In. (SWJ8)
Grand Imperial
one of the luxury resorts run by the Empire on Kaal. (SWAJ)
Grand Isle

4B-X from the planet Da’nor, where they had crashed while en route to Delantine. (SA2)
Granite Slug
found on Coruscant, these grey-green amoeba-like creatures have eyestalks and mouths which are underneath their bodies. They
prefer to live underground. They were introduced to Coruscant 346 years before Furgan attempted to assassinate Mon Mothma, in an
attempt by the Old Republic to clean up the garbage that existed in the lower level of Imperial City. Because of the amount of garbage
(a fact not realized by the old government), the population of granite slugs exploded. This resulted in an rapid improvement in the
cleanliness of Imperial City, but also caused a rise in the number of predators that found the slugs appetizing. (JS, DA, JASB)
Granley, Amos
this young man was a friend of Denel Moonrunner, and was conscripted into the Imperial armed forces when the Empire subjugated the
planet Rhamalai. (SWJ13)

Grannell
this New Republic Lieutenant served as a ferry pilot aboard the fleet carrier Venture. Grannell served under Lietuenant Bos in Bravo
Flight. (TT)
Granse Confederacy
a well-structured coalition of bounty hunters and trackers, the Granse Confederation appeared on the galactic scene shortly after the
Battle of Yavin. The group had just eight members, but all were formerly employed in some form of criminal organization, and were
known for their abilities to locate and eliminate “problems.” The Confederacy was founded by Callandri and her cousin, Zayl Braith, and
its membership included the aliens Kiran Tatch, Arcuse, Rodick Tag, Milscass, Vadon Lenitor, and Lu’daal-ud. Many within the
Alliance’s command structure believed that the Confederacy was formed specifically to assassinate Alton Lochner, given Callandri’s
grudge against him, but this was never proven. (GG12, AIR)
Graph 18
this was a model of directional transponder used by scouts and military personnel. Like its smaller cousin, the survey datapad, this
briefcase-sized device contains topographical information on a variety of planets. This data is easily updatable from commercial
sources. The Graph 18 provides up-to-the-minute charting of the unit's location on a given planet, allowing field personnel to track their
progress without getting too lost. The Graph 18 can store information on up to 25,000 different planets. (ROE)
Grapler
an Pakuuni Corvette destroyed during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE)
Grappa
1) this Hutt controlled his criminal empire from the planet Genon. Grappa had ties to Black Sun, and his legendary ruthlessness helped
ensure that traffic to the planet was kept to a minimum. Grappa had a tattoo of an evil skull placed on his forehead. Mirith Sinn offered
to pay for Grappa's help in hunting down Kir Kanos, a deal to which Grappa heartily agreed. Grappa then traveled to Smarck, where he
purchased the real Feena D'Asta from Macus Kayniph for a shipment of gree spice. He then developed a plan, with the help of Y'ull
Acib and Black Sun, to replace Xandel Carivus with a clone, thereby placing their own puppet in control of the Imperial Interim Ruling
Council. He also served as the mediary between the Zanzibar and the Empire, after Zzzanmxl's forces caught Kir Kanos on Xo.
However, the clones developed by Macus Kayniph and sent to eliminate Carivus were killed, and their link to Black Sun was exposed
by the Council. Grappa was forced to rethink his plans when Y'ull Acib decided to visit Genon, following the New Republic's raid on
Kayniph's cloning facility. New Republic forces then confronted Grappa, led by Mirith Sinn herself. She ordered Grappa to return Feena
D'Asta and Kir Kanos, then locked the Hutt in one of his own holding cells. When the Zanzibar arrived to demand their bounty, Grappa
was unable to produce the money they expected. Zzzanxml and his troops quickly captured Grappa and transported him to Xo for one
of their sacrificial ceremonies, and the Hutt was never heard from again. (CE2)
2) this Rodian mercenary Captain was the leader of the force hired by the Osarians to protect them from attack by the
Rhommamoolians, two decades after the Battle of Endor. He led what was known as the Osarian First-Force, intercepting Leia Organa
Solo before she could meet with Nom Anor on Rhommamool. (VP)

Grasheel
this fashionable, sable-furred Wookiee was a friend and first mate to Shamus Falconi. Grasheel always was on the leading edge of
fashion, and often wore his fur braided with gems or trinkets. Large earrings, scarves, and jewelry were constantly changing his
appearance. Many people are frightened by Wookiees, and the sight of a brightly-jeweled beast is often unsettling. Many of the jewels
and trinkets braided into his fur had special, personal meanings. A large hoop earring was given to him by a Socorran smuggler. This
habit was formed at an early age, when Grasheel was sold into slavery. Any possessions he did not keep close to his body were stolen.
He maintained the habit after he was rescued by a group of Algor pirates, from whom he learned starship engineering. After a strange
occurrance in a spacer bar called the Airlock, Grasheel ended up owning half of the Lumrunner, and he found himself in business with
Shamus Falconi. Their partnership was a long and fruitful one, as they plied the spcae lanes of the Minos Cluster. (SWJ9)

1) this was the name given to the asteroid belt created by the destruction of the planet Alderaan. Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, the
Royal Treasury of Aladeraan was discovered within the floating rubble. Soon after, rumors surfaced that the Royal Palace of Alderaan
had been found intact, hidden inside an asteroid. There were also rumors of ghost ships and Jedi treasures inside the asteroid field. It
was in this area that the Warlord Zsinj attacked the New Republic's convoy of bacta from Thyferra, just before Rogue Squadron arrived
to escort it to Coruscant. (GA, KT)

the hyperspace equivalent of a realspace planet, moon, or other stellar body. They are just as dangerous as their realspace cousins,
and can cause substantial damage to ship flying through hyperspace. (SWSB)
Gravity Well
1) this amusement attraction was located in the exact center of Hologram Fun World. It served as the primary lodge for visitors to the
station, where they could make purchases and exchange credits. (GOF4)
2) this was a specialized form of obstacle used in swoopchase racing. The Well was formed from a high-banked ditch. Inside the ditch
was a repulsorlify engine designed to attract objects rather that repel them. These engines often sat beneath a collection of rigid spikes
or other dangerous devices. If a rider was unable to overcome the downard pull of the repulsorlift engines, their swoop would suddenly
be dragged down onto the spikes. Because of the dangerous and deadly nature of the Gravity Well, it was considered an outlaw
obstacle by the governing bodies of swoopchase racing. (BSS)
Gravity-Wave System
this method of detonating a bomb uses specialized circuitry embedded into a weapon’s casing. The system senses the strength of the
gravity field around it, and can detonate whenever the level reaches a pre-set threshhold. The system is very effective, and cannot be
removed from the bomb without causing detonation. It was adopted by the Imperial Navy after the failure of such artillery as the M-12
sweep bomb. (MA)

Grazer
a herd animal and food source. There are at least two known species of grazers: one is native to the planet Ammuud, the other to
Alderaan. The grazer is a large, six-legged beast with prominent antlers on its head. These lumbering creatures graze the forests and
plains of Ammuud, and are the favorite prey of the soarers. When necessary, the grazers can move with incredible speed. The
Alderaanian grazers have been altered genetically to optimize muscle mass, and have become little more that living machines designed
to process meat. Some seventeen species can be found on the eighth moon of Yavin. Grazers and blerds were often used as first-
generation creatures on terraformed worlds, because of their grazing habits and their usefulness as food sources. (HSR, GG2, DA,

Great Council
this was the primary legislative and governmental body of The Expanse region of Tapani Sector. It was led by a Prime Minister, and
was made up of representatives from the seven Houses of the sector. Each House had a certain amount representation, depending on
its size and current status. During the New Order, House Mecetti was the dominant House in the Great Council. The Great Counil was
made up of several, smaller subcouncils, with the Senate being the strongest body. The Council of Ten was the most select of the
subcouncils, being made up of an inner circle of representatives and handling several key roles. Each of the five primary planets in te
Freeworlds Region also had representation on the Great Council, but they lacked the power of even the lowliest of the seven major
Houses. (PGT)

equipped with numerous repair droids. (TGH)
Great Hohokum
rumored to be over four hundred years old, this hohokum specimen was kept at the Otoh Gunga Zoological Research Facility until the
Battle of Naboo. It was considered the facility's second-most important specimen, after the pair of dwarf opee sea killers known as Vink
and Nink. When Jar Jar Binks accidentally let the creatures of the facility loose, the Great Hohokum found him later, trying to recover
the creatures. The Great Hohokum saved Jar Jar from being eaten by a sando aqua monster, then helped the return to Otoh Gunga.

"enter without entering" the pyramid. (LCM)
Great Oopik
native ot the forests of Paramatan, these creatures were an evolutionary cross between native reptile and avian lifeforms. Many
scholars believed that they had died out millennia before the rise of the Empire, until a group was discovered on the continent of Grxy.
These creatures resembled large, flightless birds, with leathery wings and short fur covering their bodies. They use ultrasound to locate
their prey, dining on small forest creatures that they find in the lowest branches of trees. They use a short burst of sound to stun their
prey, then use their claws to grasp it while eating. (COG)
Great Purge
the Yevethan name used to describe the extermination of all other races inhabiting the Koornacht Cluster. It was masterminded by Nil
Spaar, who had planned it while the Empire was still using the Cluster as a hiding place for the Black Sword Command and its
shipyards. The Yevetha took control of the yards, and repaired nearly 44 ships for their own uses. Then, Nil Spaar went to Coruscant to
placate Leia Organa-Solo while maipulating her into a series of actions Spaar later used to his own advantage. He twisted Leia's words
and deeds to his own ends, and managed to get a great deal of public sympathy and support while he methodically slaughtered the
humans, Kubaz, and other races that were living in the Koornacht. The Yevetha believed that other races were inferior, and needed to
be purged from the Koornacht, and eventually the galaxy. Some historians refer to this time as the Black Fleet Crisis, because the
Yevetha used the recommissioned Black Sword warships to destroy civilizations in the Cluster. (BTS)
Great Pyramid
located on Rafa V, this building was the resting place of the Mindharp of Sharu. The only way to enter it was to use the Key of the
Overpeople to "enter without entering." The Bearer of the Key was allowed to pass through the pyramid's walls if he properly inserted
the Key into the Great Lock. Once inside the pyramid, the Bearer could "dream without sleeping" as the pyramid showed them the
history of the Sharu before revealing the location of the Mindharp. The pyramid had the ability to monitor all who entered it, making
various changes in size, shape, and time-line to adjust for the different lifeforms. When Lando Calrissian, Vuffi Raa, and Mohs entered,
Lando was kept at his normal size until he approached the Mindharp, when he was reduced in size. He was also able enlarge himself to
reach the Mindharp atop its twelve-meter-tall pedestal. However, Lando's sense of time was reduced significantly, so that what he
thought was a couple of days in the pyramid was actually four months. Mohs, being the High Singer, was struck blind by the pyramid's
power, allowing him to "see" beyond the limited knowledge he held as High Singer. Vuffi Raa was shrunk down to a miniscule size, but
his sense of time was unaltered, since the pyramid thought he was one of the Sharu's automata. When the pyramid thought the Bearer
was ready, it led him to a downward-spiralling tunnel which had the early history of the Rafa System painted on its walls. As the Bearer
went deeper underground, the history passed through the early days of the Sharu. When the tunnel ended, it opened into a large
chamber that held the Mindharp. The remainder of the Sharu history was depicted on its walls. (LCM)

Great Void
the ancient Jedi believed that this was the vast emptiness into which the galaxies were created billions of years ago. (TOJC)
Great Well
this massive, cylindrical shaft served as a holding pen and stable for the flying serpents commanded by Tyrann's forces. The serpents
lived and bred in the lower levels of the Well, and Tyrann’s forces had excavated many levels for their own use. The lowest level
consisted of a small island in the midst of a large lake, and was the location of Tyrann’s slave quarters. (CSW)

class ship Scourge, and patrolled Darpa Sector. He was considered a loyal member of the Imperial war machine, and was part of the
force which tried to bring down Dhas Vedij and the Far Orbit. (FOP)
Gree
1) an alien race, the Gree resemble large, six-tentacled cephalopods. They are covered with gray skin which is often tattooed,
especially around their large, bulbous heads. The brain case of the Gree hangs in a sac-like appendage from the back of their head,
and seems to draw their huge foreheads even longer. They have no mouth, per se, but instead there is a series of fleshy folds beneath
their eyes that serves as a vocal communication method. The foremost pair of tentacles are used for manipulation of objects, while the
middle pair is used for heavy work. The rear pair is used for locomotion, and they appear to be shambling mounds of flesh when they
move. The Gree civilizatizon is immensely old, and is rumored to be hundreds of thousands of years old. It was well past its prime
when the worlds were discovered by the Old Republic. They have a technology which is vastly alien to that of the rest of the galaxy, and
has its roots in music and the Gree physiology. They developed the knowledge of quanta-technology and dimensional engineering,
which defied imperial scientists. Their views of technology are biased, and the Gree find little use for droids and computers, which they
consider unimportant. The Gree however, were undone by their technology, falling victim to the ability to use it rather than improve on it.
The discovery of life-extending technology further accelerated their decline, until they no longer knew or cared about their own devices.
The technology collapsed when none of the Gree could maintain it, and the Gree isolated themselves from the galaxy. Little is known
about their life cycle and customs, although it was discovered that their number system is based on the number 14 – the number of
suction cups on each tentacle. They guard the Gree Enclave jealously, and any ship passing through it often disappears. (SWJ8)
2) this is planet, located in the heart of the Gree Enclave, the motherworld of the Gree race. Among the Gree themselves, the planet is
revered with awe and wonder. It is known as a harsh, barren world dotted with groupings of ruins separated by wastelands. There is
only one major city, teeming with nearly sixty million Gree, although much of the city has been abandoned. The average day on Gree
lasts 27 standard hours, and its year encompasses 360 local days. Strange pieces of Gree technology exist within the capital city,
although very few Gree known exactly what they do. (SWJ8)
Gree Enclave
this area of space, located in the Outer Rim Territories, is controlled by the Gree race, and includes the major worlds of Gree, Asation,
Licha In, Lonatro, Malanose, and Te Hasa. Little is known about this area of space, as the Gree keep much of it a secret. Passage
through the Gree Enclave by other races is restricted, and any visitor must keep their ships in port on the world of Asation. Visitors are
then boarded on the Rokak’k Baran starship, and transported to other Enclave worlds. (SWJ8)
Gree Spice
a purple form of the sensory-enhancing spice. (CE2)
Greeata
this female Rodian served as one of Jabba the Hutt’s dancers, shortly before the Hutt’s death on Tatooine. She was ostracized as a
child because she loved music and dancing more than hunting and killing. Her parents tried their best to change her into a "normal"
Rodian child, but she resisted. Instead, she studied the music of various cultures and learned how to dance. After completing her
schooling on Rodia, she managed to sneak aboard the Kuari Princess and catch the attention of Sy Snootles. Sy asked her to play kloo
horn in a concert, and Greeata happily agreed. After a rowdy Rodian suggested that Greeata return to Rodia and marry him, Greeata
and Sy left the Princess and eventually caught up with the Max Rebo Band. The band took in Sy, since they needed a singer, but would
only take Greeata if she could dance. Along with Lyn Me and Rhystaal, Greeaata often performed to the music of the Max Rebo Band
at Jabba's palace, shortly before the crimelord's death. She and Lyn Me used their survival skills - proving that Greeata had learned
something in school on Rodia - to help the band survive the death of Jabba and the tumult which followed. (RJSE, CCG9, MTSE)
Greeb-Streebling Cluster
a section of the galaxy in the Outer Rim Territories, near the Ninth Quadrant. (COJ)
Greedo
Greedo was a Tetsus Rodian, and grew up away from the violence of Rodia with his mother, Neela, and his brother, Pqweeduk. The
Tetsus clan fled to an undisclosed jungle moon following the murder of Greedo's father, a noted bounty hunter, by the Chattza clan
leader, Navik the Red. Note that the screenplay of Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace has a young Rodian named Greedo
accused young Anakin Skywalker of cheating during the Boonta Eve Classic on Tatooine. When Navik invaded the jungle moon,
Greedo's family moved to Nar Shaddaa. There, Greedo became involved with Spurch Goa and Dyyz Nataz when he saved them from
Gorm the Dissolver. Two Chattza Rodians, Thuku and Neesh, then hired Goa to eliminate Greedo. Goa lured Greedo into the
underworld of bounty hunters when Greedo approached him about information regarding the Alliance team living on Nar Shaddaa. Goa
agreed to teach Greedo if Greedo paid him his portion of the credits for the information on the Alliance. Greedo agreed, and Goa strung
him along until they all ended up on Tatooine, applying to Jabba the Hutt for one of Jabba's many bounties. Greedo, much to Goa's
mixed chagrin and desire, signed up to collect the bounty on Han Solo. Greedo intercepted Han Solo in the Mos Eisley cantina,
overconfident in his abilities to capture Solo and collect Jabba's reward. Han secretly drew his blaster under the table and shot Greedo
in the midsection, killing him instantly. It is believed that Greedo often padded his bounties, waiting for the person to commit further
crimes before actually apprehending him in order to drive the bounty up. Note that Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina makes no
reference to the fact that Greedo had already been a bounty hunter for some time, while the Movie Trilogy Sourcebook makes no
references to Greedo being a rookie when he was killed by Solo. Although uncredited, Greedo was portrayed by Diana Sadley in Star
Wars. (SW, TME, MTS, IS1)
Greejatus, Janus
this cruel man served as one of Emperor Palpatine's advisors during the planning and execution of the Battle of Endor. Greejatus was

Greel
1) a rare tree which yields expensive, scarlet-red wood. The variety known as band scarlet greel wood is grown almost exclusively on
the planet Pii IV, which is owned by Meysen Kayson. The grassland scarlet greel wood is grown on Pii III, which is also owned by
Kayson. (HSL, SWAJ)
2) this Gamorrean, along with his brother and partner, Gorge, owned The Broken Tusk on Reuss VIII. Greel was extremely small for a
Gamorrean, having a frame which could have been mistaken for human. While Gorge was the muscle, Greel was the entrepreneur, and
provided the brains behind the establishment. Greel also preferred to wear fancy clothes, and owned a Synthax-7 voice synthesizer to
enable him to communicate with other races. It was rumored that both Gorge and Greel were slaves of Var'Rotha Fin'Rotha, until they
managed to escape by jettisoning Fin'Rotha in an escape pod from his ship, the Tolan's Tusk. Gorge and Greel took to the stars, but
were inexperienced pilots at best. They ran out of fuel near Reuss VIII and the Tolan's Tusk crashed onto the planet. The remains of
the ship were converted into The Broken Tusk, named for the right front tusk Gorge broke in the crash. (WSV)
Greel Screamer
a predator native to the planet Pii 4. (SWAJ)
Greelanx, Winstel
this Imperial Navy Admiral was in command of the fleet sent by Sarn Shild to attack Nar Shaddaa. Prior to the Battle of Nar Shaddaa,
the Hutt clas Desilijic had sent Han Solo to offer the Admiral a bribe. The bribe was in return for information about the impending attack,
and for allowing the residents of Nar Shaddaa to win the battle without making it look like the Imperial fleet had given up. Greelanx took
the bribe, providing the information and devising a battle plan that gave the residents of Nar Shaddaa a chance. Shortly before the
battle, Greelnax received orders from someone in Excomm to lose the battle. He suddenly found himself able to accept the Hutts’ bribe
without compromising his position. However, the loss of the Battle of Nar Shaddaa was reported by Soontir Fel, and Greelanx came
under the scrutiny of Darth Vader and the Emperor. Despite the orders from Excomm, Greelanx’s acceptance of the Hutt’s bribe was
discovered. Within minutes of Greelanx’s receiving payment from Han Solo, Vader arrived at his offices. The Dark Lord of the Sith
executed Greelanx for accepting the bribes as Solo hid in an anteroom. (THG, RD)

this man was in charge of the cartography and surveying team which was dispatched to look over the planet Trinta. (DOE)
Green
1) this ambitious human was one of Prince Xizor's vigo's, or one of his closest lieutenants. Green maintained a vast spynet for Black
Sun, and specialized in racketeering and blackmail. Xizor assigned Green to sidetrack and waylay the forensics experts working for
Durga to discover the cause of Aruk’s death, in an effort to draw the Hutt into his service. It was at this time that Guri remarked that
Green was “a very competent human.” Durga, meanwhile, began manipulating Green, subtly pushing the human in the directions Durga
wished him to go. Green later schemed to betray Xizor and his fellow vigos, but Xizor discovered his treachery. During a meeting of his
lieutenants, Xizor had Guri exterminate Green. (SE, RD, SESB)

Green Champagne
a green-colored, sparkling wine. (SE)
Green Diamond
these beautiful gemstones are wondrous to behold, but deadly to hold. Each green diamond is still immature by geological standards,
and contains active radiation. To hold one in the palm of your unprotected hand for thirty second means that enough deadly radioactive
emissions have seeped into your body to kill you. Prince Xizor was fond of green diamonds, but only for those woman he had finished
with. If one of these woman remained in love with the Prince after he had ended their relationship, Xizor would dispatch a messenger to
deliver the beautiful stone. The woman would surely die, as would the messenger, when she took the stone out of its case. Xizor would
then send a protected agent to recover it. (SLS)

Greenwell, The
this large arboretum was located in the Bakur Memorial Building, at the small end of the wedge-shaped building. It was created to take
up all six levels of the building, like an huge atrium. Inside, native flora surrounds a series of bubbling fountains and babbling
waterways. The main entrance to the Greenwell was from the statuary park on the grounds of the Bakur Complex, although access was
possible via turbolifts from any level. A smaller greenwell was located along the wider edge of the Memorial Building, but was not as
wondrous as the main Greenwell. For this reason, it was not often visited by tourists, and became a place of relaxation for the workers
at the Complex. (TBSB)
Greeter
this being was the individual who awaited garbage pit racers of Coruscant whenever they finished their race. Each racer was supposed
to obtain a scale from a garbage worm and present it to the Greeter at the end of their run. Quite often, the Greeter sold the worm

this Hutt worked for Jemba the Hutt and Offworld Mining Company, and was in charge of collecting slave laborers for use in the mines
of Bandomeer. During the transport of slaves aboard the barge Monument, Grelb became suspicious of young Obi-Wan Kenobi and his
Arconan friends, Si Treemba. He managed to capture Si Treemba, but the Arconan was rescued by Obi-Wan, who then implicated
Grelb in the sabotage of mining equipment owned by Arcona Mineral Harvest Corporation. When the Monument was attacked by
pirates, all its travellers were forced to land on an uncharted world dominated by the draigons. There, Jemba and Grelb tried to
eliminate Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon Jinn, but the draigons attacked before they could succeed. As Obi-Wan fought off the huge reptiles,
Grelb tried to shoot him with a blaster. Many of his shots missed Obi-Wan but hit Jemba instead, killing the old Hutt by piercing its
hearts. Grelb was captured and torn apart shortly after by a flight of draigons. (RF)

Griff
1) an Imperial Admiral, Griff was the fleet admiral who supervised construction of the Executor. Along with Darth Vader, Griff sent a
message to the Alliance, claiming that he held open a droid maintenance position that the rebels could use to spy on the shipyards. The
offer was a sham, but managed to attract Luke Skywalker to Fondor. Griff later became first commander of the Super-class Star
Destroyer, although he wasn't trusted by Vader or his Executive Officer. He continually questioned Darth Vader's motivation and
authority, although the Dark Lord executed the Executive Officer for complaining too much about Griff's methods. Shortly after, Vader
assigned Griff to command Jovan Station. Griff began to tire of Imperial infighting, and began to see the Alliance through non-Imperial
eyes. It was during this time that Darth Vader began to plan his attack on Yavin 4, trying to rout the Alliance once and for all. Griff took
control of the operation before Vader was ready, and mounted the attack himself. Griff was unaware that Vader actually wanted him to
do this, anticipating the Alliance’s movements and using Griff’s actions to destroy the Alliance. Griff was killed in the battle when, in an
attempt to drop out of hyperspace and engage the fleeing Alliance starships, he caused the Executor to crash into other Imperial ships.
He, and much of the fleet were killed in the aftermath, and the Alliance had a chance to evacuate Yavin 4 and reach Hoth. (CSW)

forever. He left the university and returned to the Enclave, but his anger at the Empire continued to burn. He left his job following the
Alliance's victory in the Battle of Endor, and served as a New Republic navigator on the Emancipator. He discovered new friends, a
loving wife and child, but he forgot Marfa. (DE1, DESB)

the Imperial Governor assigned to M'haeli, Grigor came under the scrutiny of Grand Moff Lynch early in the Galactic Civil War. When
Lynch assigned Ranulf Trommer to spy on Grigor as an official aide, Grigor arranged to have Trommer tailed and arrested as an
Alliance spy. Trommer was caught, but Mora intervened. The two were saved when Merrik and his companion, a disguised Princess
Leia Organa, stepped in to clean up. Trommer was able to expose an illegal dragite mining operation being run by Grigor. Grigor was
using common thugs posing as stormtroopers to guard the mines. When the Alliance caught wind of the Governor's mines, they
mounted a raid on them, but were only mildly successful. They recovered many gems, but Mora was captured in the attack. Grigor
discovered, though a routine screening of Mora's identi-print, that she was the surviving heir to the royal house of M'haeli. He claimed to
the humans on the planet that she had agreed to marry him, shortly after kidnapping her. When Ranulf Trommer attempted to rescue
Mora, Grigor used her as a shield while holding a blaster to her head. Trommer lashed out and kicked the blaster, which surprised
Grigor. His finger contracted on the trigger as the weapon pointed at his head. Grigor was killed instantly. (ROC)

Grimpen
this old B'omarr monk was one of the few who never achieved true enlightenment. He was a good friend to the young monk Beidlo, but
only because he realized Beidlo could be used as part of his schemes. Grimpen had been corrupted by Jabba the Hutt, and was
performing brain transfers for criminals under Jabba's employ. This allowed Jabba to provide their old bodies to the authorities, making
it seem like the crime lord was trying to become a good citizen. In reality, Grimpen had removed the criminal's brain and transferred it to
the body of an unwitting monk or other captive of Jabba. Grimpen had tricked the victim into believing they were ready for
enlightenment by having them walk across hot coals, which were simply lume rocks. The victim's brain was then placed into a brain
spider droid. Grimpen also managed to lure Tash Arranda into his web, but his plans were foiled by Tash's brother, Zak. As
punishment, the true B'omarr monks had Grimpen's brain removed and stored in a jar, never to feel the true enlightenment of the
monks. (GOF7)

managed to eek out an existence. (POT)
Grissom
this Godling of the Anointed People was appointed by the Godking Trisstan to put together an honor guard and greet the Imperials who
arrived on Masterhome in search of the crew of the Long Shot. Trisstan wanted to ensure that the Imperials left the planet empty-

pilots recently. When his squadron discovered the existence of New Republic X-Wings in Cilpar, Grode's pilots were pressed into
service to eliminate them. Celchu used a series of remote commands to activate his X-Wing, which Winter had inadvertently boarded.
Between Celchu's commands and Winter's ability, the X-Wing took out nearly all of Grode's ships, including Grode himself. Grode was
a heavy-set, bald-headed man. (XWRS)

Grond went on to coordinate the various scouting actions required to guard the shield generators for the second Death Star’s
construction site. (CCG10)
Gronn
an Imperial Moff who survived the Battle of Endor, Gronn controlled much of the Allied Tion Sector. When the New Republic tried to
move into the sector, Gronn resisted. He was almost ready to invade the planets in the sector with his minimal forces, until Lady Santhe

Technologies company. (DESB)
Groodo
this Hutt crimelord was the being responsible for the Bartokk attack on the Trinkatta Starships works on Esseles, just before the Battle
of Naboo. Prior to this, Groodo had been employed by the Trade Federation to design and build a small, powerful hyperdrive unit for
use on droid starfighters. However, the Trade Federation refused to pay for the prototype after Groodo delivered it. Groodo arranged for
the Bartokks to steal the droid starfighters being built for the Trade Federation, then planned to destroy the Corulag Academy with
them. Groodo's hope was that the Trade Federation would be blamed for the attack, allowing him to recover the prototype and receive
payment for it. Groodo hoped to destroy the Corulag Academy after it refused to allow his son, Boonda, to attend schooling there. He
nearly succeeded, but Darth Maul intercepted the droid starfighters and slaved them to his Sith Infiltrator's targetting computer. After
warning Groodo to flea Corulag, Maul opened fire on the Hutt's freighter with the combined firepower of 25 starfighters. Groodo and his
son escaped in a lifepod, and Maul let them go. Darth Sidious had told him to allow Groodo to live in fear after the starfighters were
recovered. (E1A3)

excavations could then be used as living spaces for miners and other colonists, especially when the planet's atmosphere was
unbreathable. The Groundborer was 120 meters in length, and required a crew of 15 to operate. Up to fifty miners or colonists could be
transported inside the craft. The ancient Naddists of Onderon converted a number of Akin-Dower Groundborers for military use, adding
four medium blasters to the craft and dubbing it the "Onderonian War Machine." (TOJC, FNU)

group of freedom fighters, led by Throm Elscol, raided the base, Groznik went wild and started killing an Imperial in sight. Throm
rescued the Wookiee before the Imperials could shoot him, and Groznik initiated a life-debt to Throm. The two returned to Cilpar, and
continued to fight against th Imperial presence there. When Throm was killed in a battle with the Imperials on Cilpar, Groznik's debt
passed to Elscol. He remained by Elscol’s side through the liberation of Cilpar and during the negotiations for the Phantom Project on
Mrlsst. However, Groznik was tricked into believing the ghost Jedi of Mrlsst was really Throm Loro, and was lured to Professor Falken's
lab. During the New Republic’s attempt to rescue Professor Falken’s asteroid lab from Imperial control, Groznik remained on the lab
and kept Loka Hask at bay while Rogue Squadron used the gravitic polarization beam to eliminate Hask’s Interdictor-class cruiser. The
device exploded, taking the lab - and Groznik - with it. A statue of the heroic Wookiee was erected in the campus of Mrlsst's Academy,
in honor of his actions. (XWRS, XWPA, HXW)

Grumme Vinn
this old Duros trader worked during the height of the New Order, plying the spacelanes with his starship, the Corsa-Vinn. The ship had
been in his family for years, and had earned a reputation as a smuggling vessel. Grumme Vinn himself despised smugglers, and
worked hard to make a name for himself as an honest trader. He often went out of his way to avoid helping a smuggler, in order to
preserve his own hard-won battles for respect. As the Empire rose to power and more and more smugglers began helping the Alliance,
Grumme found that his personal moral code was more of a burden than a blessing, but he nonetheless stuck with it. (PSG)

Grupp participated in the various raids and attacks against Oldtimers. (POT)
Grutchin
this bio-engineered form of living starfighter was created by the Yuuzhan Vong. Resembling black, armored turfhoppers, the half-meter-
long grutchins were sent out after an advanced force of coralskippers reduced an enemy fleet to near-destruction. The insectile
grutchins were released from an ovoid holding ship, and latched themselves onto still-operative enemy ships. The grutchins then used
acid-dripping pincers to chew through the enemy ships and render them inoperative and incapable of sustaining life. However, they
were living creatures, and couldn't survive a trip through hyperspace. Unlike much of the Yuuzhan Vong's bio-engineered technology,
the grutchins were unintelligent weapons of destruction. Once released, they could not be recalled. Those that were not killed in battle -
either by enemy fire or by Yuuzhan Vong clean-up parties - often fled the scene of the battle and wreaked havoc in the galaxy. They
couldn't reproduce, so any that got away would eventually die out. (VP)

the prisoners were delivered to an Alliance penal colony, command of the Celestial was to be returned to Captain Gryphon. Rather than
sacrifice her ship, Gryphon attempted to destroy the ship by sending into hyperspace with a damaged hyperdrive. The result was that
the Celestial and her passengers were thrown into Otherspace. There, they were captured by Ber’asco and the Charon death cult.
Gryphon bravely tried to resist the Charon, but she took several vicious claw wounds. The Charon poisons eventually killed her before
help from the Alliance could arrive. (OS)

befriend the alien. After Qui-Gon Jinn rescued Obi-Wan from the mines, Guerra overcame his fears and led the slave miners in a
mutiny that succeeded in overthrowing Offworld’s control and freeing the slaves. Obi-Wan later encountered Guerra again, this time on
Guerra's homeworld of Phindar, after he and Qui-Gon Jinn were transported to the planet by Guerra's own brother, Paxxi Derida.
Guerra had been hiding in the ship's hold during the trip, since both of the Phindians were wanted by the Syndicat that controlled
Phindar. Guerra and Paxxi led a small group of freedom fighters who hoped to overthrown the Syndicat, but they needed the Jedis' help

an Alliance shuttle group destroyed during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE)
Guild of Hunters
this very secretive bounty hunter syndicate is the group to join for bounty hunters. However, it is so secretive that very few know of its
existence. The galaxy's deadliest, most blood-thirsty bounty hunters join this guild, and will hunt anyone or anything. (GG9)
Guild of Vindicators
this brotherhood of assassins tried to destroy Darth Vader during the Galactic Civil War. They sent Clat the Shamer to perform the
killing, but Vader manipulated Clat into a trap on Cheelit. Clat was consumed in fire when he suddenly became a playing piece in a
game of Firepath. (CSWDW)
Guilea
this extract of the tecave grass found on the planet Cerea is known for its mildly euphoric effects when consumed. It is prized on many
planets throughout the galaxy, but the planet Cerea has a virtual monopoly on its production because it is the only world which contains
the necessary trace elements like malium in its atmosphere. The export of malium and tecave is strictly prohibited for this reason,
although many individuals manage to smuggler small amounts at great risk. (PTR)
Guiteica
this harsh planet was located in the Kadok Regions, and was the homeworld of the Bitthaevrian race. Known as Kadok III-D on most
starcharts, Guiteica was the fourth planet in the Tertiary Kadok System, and had nine natural moons. There were sixteen distinct
continents on this rugged planet, which was known for its soaring peaks and huge waterfalls. Because of its axial tilt, Guiteica
experienced seven distinct seasons each local year: Giil, Quul, Aul, Zoul, Tweil, Jael, and Quaal. (AE, AIR)
Guiteica Militia
this was the primary military force of Bitthaevrians which protected the planet Guiteica and the Kadok Regions. Each of the planet
sixteen continents provided hardware and troops to the Militia. The m'Yalfor'ac Order was generally regarded as the leadership of the
Militia, since its membership accounted for more than eighty percent of the Guiteica Militia and the leaders of the m'Yalfor'ac Order
were the strongest of the Militia's leaders. (AIR)
Gukked Eggs
a form of breakfast food. (COJ)
Gul-Rah, Thanis
this former bounty hunter was part of the crew of the New Republic starship FarStar, during the search for Moff Sarne in Kathol Sector.
Thanis, at one point in his career, hunted for Scoryn, but the intervention of Captain Brannij thwarted the capture. After Scoryn was
promoted to First Officer aboard the FarStar, Thanis realized that the balance of power between them had shifted. In order to secure his
own position, Thanis began talking to the starfighter pilots, gaining their friendship while sowing the seeds of dissention among them.

Gulan Screw
this was a huge piece of equipment used to gouge out large areas of rock during mining operations. (RAC)
Gularg
this Hutt bartender owned and operated Gularg's Libation Emporium in Celanon City, during the early years of the New Republic. He
had left Nal Hutta to discovered the thrill of exploration, but soon found that he liked working with the incredible diversity of lifeforms in
the galaxy. After learning that the best places to meet other beings was in cantinas and bars, Gularg established his Libation Emporium
to meet them himself. He was known as jovial and pleasant, something of an anomlay among the Hutts. This didn't stop him from
joining in the many fights which occurred in the bar, however. (POC)
Gulch, The
located within the Serianan Asteroid Belt in grid 867-3A4, the Gulch is the nickname of a huge cavern located within the largest of the
asteroids. First documented by Korren Starchaser and his team, the Gulch was unusual in that it appeared to be partly natural and
partly excavated by some alien race. On the surface of the asteroid were several runes and glyphs, many of which dwarfed
Starchaser’s scout ship, the Jedi Dreamer. Detailed examination of the runes showed that they had been tooled into the surface of the
asteroid. However, anyalsis of the composition of the asteroid revealed that the body is made up of extremely dense and resistant
minerals. In the rear of the cavern was an alcove that contained several alien statues. This alcove was carved out the rock of the
asteroid, which is all the most astonishing given the dense nature of its composition. The five statues could easily be carried by a
human, but were impounded by the New Republic before further analysis could be done. (SWJ8)
Guldi, Drom
the Baron-Administrator of the Kelrodo-Ai gelatin mines following the Battle of Calamari, Drom Guldi fancied himself a big-game hunter.
When he heard the Burrk and his two Cathars, Nodon and Nonak, were booking trips to Hoth to hunt Wampas, he jumped at the
chance. They were ambushed by Wampas on the trip, and the Wampas accidentally hit the auto-destruct sequence for his ship. The
ship exploded before they could fight off the Wampas, and they were stranded. They were eventually discovered by Luke Skywalker
and Calista, but were again attacked by Wampas. They fled to the remains of Echo Base, but the Wampas fought their way in and killed
nearly every, including Drom Guldi, who held off several Wampas to allow Luke and Callista to escape. (DS)
Guldus Bemm
this Twi’leki former pirate was the Administrator of the Canyon Mining Facility in the years following the Battle of Endor and the
liberation of Bakura. He led the group which resuced the crew of a Victory-class Star Destroyer that was damaged near Canyon, and
when the Empire left them alone, he moved in. After establishing the Canyon Mining Facility, Bemm and his pirates soon became
wealthy. He urgently requested that Luke Skywalker come to the planet Canyon to investigate the strange crystals discovered in the
mines there - Bemm thought they might be useful in the construction of lightsabers. This was was all a carefully constructed ruse, as
Bemm hoped to lure Skywalker into a trap and deliver him to Advisor Bregius Golthan. When Skywalker himself didn’t show up, Bemm
captured the New Republic agents who did arrive. (SWJ8)
Gulek, Donn

Gulli-brawl
this was the Gungan name for the first phase of the Big Nasty Free-For-All, in which the competitors vied for control of a small number
of gulliballs. (E1A10)
Gulli-throw
this was the Gungan name for the second phase of the Big Nasty Free-For-All, in which the Gungans remaining from the gulli-brawl had
to place their gulliballs in elevated chutes. The chutes were placed atop flexible poles, and those Gungans who failed to put their ball
into the chute were disqualified. (E1A10)
Gulliball
this is one of the most popular sports played by the Gungans. Using mallets made from the branches of the zaela tree, Gungans bat
around puffed-up gullipuds in an effort to place them in specified goal areas. (GF)
Gullipud
this flat-bodied, squishy amphibian is native to the swamps of Naboo. They live in the mud, hoping to avoid being eaten while foraging
for algae and other plants. When excited or frightened, gullipuds quickly inhale great amounts of air and puff up like balloons. This helps
scare off potential predators, and also makes them useful in the Gungan sport of gulliball. For some strange reason, the gullipuds enjoy
being batted around with zaela-wood mallets. (GF)
Gulper
a swamp creature native to the bayous of Nim Drovis. (POT)
Gum-tree

Gun of Command
built on Charubah, this weapon releases an electromagnetic wave field that neutralizes the enemy's voluntary thought processes. They
were used primarily by Hapans troops. The Gun resembles a normal blaster, and though it was effective in taking out an opponent
without harming them, the guns were prohibitively expensive to produce. (CPL, CTD)
Gunda Mabin
known as Gunda the Terror, this Aqualish pirate burst onto the galactic scene about the time of the Battle of Yavin as a member of the
Riders of the Maelstrom. She eventually struck out on her own, terrorizing Perrinn Sector during the early years of the Galactic Civil
War. She was known to rob her victims blind and them sell them into slavery, a practice which earned her a huge bounty on her head.
She was also known to be short on intelligence, relying on brute strength and fear to remain successful. (PP)
Gundark
a four-armed anthropoid known for its incredible strength. Native to the planet Kashyyyk, it has large ears. (ESB)
Gundeeb, Mowa
Mowa was one of the sensor experts who served under Korren Starchaser aboard the scout ship Jedi Dreamer. (SWJ13)
Gundruk
this ambitious young Gamorrean sow was the daughter of Vrokk and Kufbrug, and was married to her uncle Rog. It was later
discovered that Gundruk was jealous of her mother's power, as well as the number of suitors Kufbrug attracted. When she discovered
that Guth was trying to win Kufbrug's heart, Gundruk formed a plan to obtain her mother's position. She used Rog's unwitting
assistance to murder Vrokk, in a plan to frame Guth and take control of Bolgoink. She and Rog were forced to flee Gamorr, after their
plans were revealed by Callista Ming and Kufbrug. Another of Kufbrug's daughters were named the clan matron of Nudskutch. (SWJ14)
Gunga Park
this was a large, enclosed, natural area found within the city of Otoh Gunga, on Naboo. (GF)
Gungan
this species of humanoid amphibians was native to the planet Naboo. There are two distinct races of Gungans: the Ankura and the
Otolla. The average Otolla Gungan has a tall, muscular body with long arms and short legs, and can exist on either land or in the water.
Their heads are crowned with a pair of large frills that can be extended when frightened. Their eyes sit atop short, thick stalks. The
Ankura Gungans grow incredibly large, to the point where their immense weight begins to compact their skeletons, and their eyes are
hooded with heavy brows instead of sitting atop short stalks. Ankura Gungans also have green skin, where the Otolla Gungans have
reddish skin. During much of their existence on Naboo, the Gungans took great pains to avoid contact with their human neighbors, and
even built huge underwater cities to escape contact. However, fringe elements of both species realized that they couldn’t survive
without the other, and specialized trading relationships were set up. While these relationships were not officially recognized by either
government, they were vital to the survival of each species. The Gungans, like the Wookiee race, have a distinct concept of the life
debt. Any Gungan who is saved by another being must submit to the life debt or be punished by their gods. Despite their amphibious
appearance, Gungans are quite technologically advanced. Their immense bubble cities are found in the depths of Naboo’s seas, and
are made up of groupings of round force-fields. The fields are permeable only to slow-moving objects, and can be penetrated by a
Gungan walking through them. However, the force-fields hold back the incredibly pressures of the water that surrounds them. The
Gungans also had an advanced shielding technology which they applied to small, hand-held shields as well as huge hemispheres that
protected an entire army. Like the bubble fields, these shields were only permeable by slow-moving objects, and they absorbed energy
like a sponge. (SW1, TPM, IG1)
Gunlabird
a species of avian native to the forest moon of Endor. Gunlabirds were the favored prey of the yootak. (SWJ1)
Gunman
this was a pseudonym used by a smuggler who had a great deal of experience with droids. Gunman was based on Kothlis, and was
one a member of Churhee's Rifleman, where he worked as a combat technician. (SWJ13, SWJ14)
Gunner Groth
this two-bit bounty hunter hoped to catch Mara Jade on Rishi. He used a false set to pose as the better-known hunter Dengar, but was
killed before he could actually capture Mara. (TTSB)
Gunthar
this member of the FarStar’s crew was forced to fight in gladiator battles before joining the Alliance. Gunthar was a stocky humanoid
with a short tail, whose torso was covered with fur while his abdomen and lower body were scaled. It was later discovered - when the
FarStar traveled through the Blue Swirl - that Gunthar was a member of the Yvarema species. In fact, Gunthar was a royal explorer
who was mapping a section of the Kathol Rift when he was captured by slavers. Upon his return to Yvara, Gunthar suddenly regained a
great deal of intelligence, and pledged his unswerving loyalty to the Majjvara. After the FarStar defeated the Heart of Flesh and allowed
the Yvarema to remain free, Gunthar resigned his post aboard the ship and remained on Yvara with his people. At his suggestion, the
Majjvara created a new class of Yvarema known as the FarStar Warriors. (KO, KR)
Gupin
a shape-shifting race of elf-like creatures that inhabit the volcanic caves of the forest moon of Endor. (ECAR)
Gurdun
this Imperial Supervisor devised the IG-88 assassin droid, and funnelled large amounts of credits into the droid’s creation. He gave
Holowan a limited timetable on which to create the droids, which the Empire would use to eliminate targets that stormtroopers could not
hit. A large man with an inflated ego, Gurdun personally went to the Holowan labs for the initial demonstration of the IG-series droids.
He was greeted with chaos,as the IG-88 droids (along with IG-72) had escaped from their laboratories. Gurdun was forced to send out
a warning to the galaxy, indicating that thelethal assassin droids were loose. After this fiasco, Gurdun was placed in charge of the
Arakyd Viper probe droid project, and he negotiated to have the droids mass-produced on Mechis III. The droids had been
commissioned by Darth Vader himself, to be used to hunt the commanders of the Alliance following the Battle of Yavin. Gurdun saw
that he could also use the probe droids to search out IG-88, and put his efforts into the project. Once the droids were delivered, Gurdun
was placed in charge of acquiring and delivering the computer core for the second Death Star. While transporting the core to Endor.
Gurdun’s small fleet was attacked by IG-88A. The droid’s robotic troops quickly eliminated Gurdun’s stormtrooper escort. When Gurdun
was captured by IG-88A, he went into a fit of rage and astonishment. The droid he had created actually was successful, but also very
lethal. IG-88A left Gurdun aboard his crippled transport ship, and Gurdun perished when IG-88A destroyed the ship. (TBH)
Guri
this human-replica droid was a blond-haired, blue-eyed female who served Prince Xizor. Guri was beautiful by any human standard,
and she was also a highly-skilled assassin. Xizor had paid nine million credits to purchase her, and was the only one of her kind. Xizor
made sure of that by exterminating her creator. She was Xizor’s right arm, enforcing the crimelord’s wishes and maintaining the day-to-
day continuity of his enterprises. She was disptached by Xizor to assist Durga the Hutt’s assassination of Jiliac, and was also
responsible for bringing the traitorous leaders of Orono Shipping under control. When Xizor was killed over Coruscant when the
Alliance destroyed his skyhook, it was believed that she perished in the explosion. However, Guri fled the planet and traveled alone for
some time. During her private time, she decided to locate Massad Thrumble, hoping that the Imperial researcher could remove the
programming that made her an assassin. Thrumble’s work succeeded, but not before the Falleen Savan tried to recover Guri. Savan
attempted to use a secret codephrase which Xizor had implanted in Guri’s brain. Thrumble’s reprogramming gave Guri enough
information to recognize the phrase, but her new programming ignored it. Guri immobilized Savan and helped turn the Falleen over to
the fledgling New Republic. Guri herself, no longer an assassin, fled Hurd’s Moon and eventually met up with Dash Rendar. (SE, RD,

Gurtt, Tyresi
this dark-complected woman was one of the Eyttyrmin Batiiv pirates who served with Jacob Nive and survived the Imperial assault on
them. Her right hand was injured in an unspecified accident, and was replaced with a cybernetic prosthesis. She chose not to have it
covered with synthetic flesh as a sort of badge of courage. She became the Captain of Nive's premier fighter group, Bolt Squadron. For
her tactics in defeating the Harmzuay, which she acknowledged were Corran Horn's (who was operating under the alias of Jenos
Idanian) she was promoted to True Invid and served aboard the Invidious. When Tavira was attacked at Suarbi 7/5 by the combined
forces of the Backstab, the Errant Venture, and Corran's Jedi illusions, Tavira fled. However, Jacob Nive had gotten word to Gurtt that
any members of the True Invids who were once Survivors were immuned under the deal he struck with Luke Skywalker and Corran,
and those who chose to leave Tavira's service were welcome to those freedoms. She and many of her companions took the offer for
freedom and left the Invidious before it jumped to hyperspace. (IJ)
Gus Treta
a space station located in the Corellian Sector. Wedge Antilles' parents operated a fuel depot there, but were killed in an explosion

Guth
this Gamorrean was Ugmush' brother, and a crewman aboard the Zicreex. Sometime after the Battle of Endor, Guth was charged with
murdering the warlord Vrokk. It was no secret aboard the Zicreex that Guth wanted to challegne Vrokk during the Fair at Bolgoink,
Vrokk’s brother, Rog, claimed that Guth had challenged Vrokk to combat before the fair, in a written document. The wax seal of the
document was impregnated with poison, and Vrokk died shortly after reading it. Vrokk’s widow, Kufbrug, tried to support Rog’s claims
by producing a series of love letters she had supposedly received from Guth. Callista Ming, however, knew that Guth couldn’t write his
own name, let alone a series of love letters, and set out to clear her crewmate’s honor. Callista later discovered that a homunculus-
wasp had been sealed into the wax which bound the parchment, and the insect killed Vrokk. It was later discovered, by Callista and
Kufbrug, that Rog and Gundruk had murdered Vrokk in order to gain a position of power by controlling both Bolgoink and Nudskutch.
Guth was later set free, and married Kufbrug. (SWJ14)
Gutretee
this race of hulking, crystalline humanoids is native to the planet Isis. They are a primitive, single-sex, nomadic race that gains
nourishment from the mineral deposits and other crystalline creatures on the planet. When Bail Organa arrived to make Isis a safeworld
for the families of Old Republic supporters, some Gutretee tribes welcomed the humans. Other tribes hated off-worlders, and thus grew
to dislike the Alliance, although they had no feelings for the Empire either. The Gutretee tribes are very aggressive, and physical
combat has a large place in Gutretee ceremonies and rituals. The crystalline matrix of their bodies has two unique features. First,
blaster fire simply bounces off of them. Second, the matrix of crystals within a Gutretee body contains all of their race's memories in
exact detail. Thus, the Gutretee body is a huge data file. (IC)

Gyr Keela
this Mrlssti was the president of the Mrlssti Academy, a position to which he was promoted after Rorax Falken suffered his nervous
breakdown. He was known for his beautiful, yellow and red facial plumage. He tried to extort money from the Empire by proposing the
Phantom project’s cloaking device. When the fledgling New Republic also showed interest, Keela opened negotiations between the
New Republic and the remnants of the Empire. Wedge Antilles represented the Republic, while his old nemesis Loka Hask represented
the Empire. An Imperial plot, involving faked video of Tycho Celchu and the imprisonment of Wedge during the negotiations, virtually
assured Imperial control of the Phantom project. In the end, Keela admitted that the project was a fake. After the Empire was driven off
Mrlsst, Keela remained president, and vowed to reform his ways and restore his people to their former glory. (XWPA)
Gyran
this bounty hunter was often employed by Prince Xizor, whenever Black Sun needed some internal "housecleaning." Prior to becoming
a hunter, Gyran was a royal bodyguard to the spice lords of Sevarcos. Xizor purchased Gyran's services while on a business trip, and
he remained under Xizor's control from that point on. Gyran was known to have a fear of wide-open spaces, although he controlled it

routinely skip over players who didn't meet its eye during gameplay. G0-16 once tried to ignore Han Solo's bid during a match, shortly
after the Battle of Yavin, while Han was trying to increase the reward he received for rescuing Leia Organa. Han was being hounded by
a small droid dispatched by Alfreda Goot, and had to argue with the droid and the casino owner to have his bid placed. (SL)
G1M
this small, roller-treaded droid was a maintenance droid assigned to the crew which assisted Ki-Adi-Mundi in his search for Ephant Mon
near Tatooine. The droid was a prototype, and had been rejected because of its highly unusual programming. In an effort to distract his
pursuit, Ki tried to empty his holds of garbage and other junk, hoping to damage the trailing starship. In the chaos, G1M was swept out
of the hold with the garbage. This was part of Ki’s plan, however, as G1M made its way onto Jabba the Hutt’s personal shuttle and
downloaded its computer banks. Hidden in the data it recovered was enough information to piece together the Trade Federation’s part
in the import of technology to Cerea. Note that in later issues of Prelude to Rebellion, this droid is referred to as J1M. (PTR)

this religious sect was formed by the faithful masses who believed in the messages being spread by the religious leader H'kig on
Galand. They bought two starships and fled the planet after H'kig was executed, and landed on Rishi, where they set up a theocratic
government. The H'kig religion stressed the values of simple living, and the elimination of unnecessary material possessions. The H'kig
religion has defined a number of sacred glyphs, each of which has a special meaning. Some of the glyphs are so sacred that they
cannot be spoken aloud. (DFRSB, SOL, HT)
H'Krav
a member of Obigon's pirates, he is the Null Space's navigations officer. (HTSB)
H'Lokk Consortium
this corporation, a rival of the Bakur Corporation, injected a virus program into the droids which were sent to Bakura shortly after it was
settled by humans. The virus was meant to instruct the droids to sabotage the settlers' activities, forcing the Bakur Corporation to
abandon the planet. This would leave it open to H’Lokk to exploit. Unfortunately for H’Lokk, the virus was flawed, and the droids’ non-
violence failsafes were disabled. The droids started to kill people, and all were destroyed within a week. The settlers suffered great
losses, but managed to persevere without the help of droids, dooming H’Lokk’s own plans for Bakura. (TBSB)
H'nemthe
a planet with three natural satellites. It is the homeworld of the H'nemthean race. (TME)
H'nemthean
native to the planet H'nemthe, these humanoids resemble Gotals in that they have cone-like appendages of their heads. That is where
the resemblance ends, though. Gotals only have two cones, while the H'nemtheans have four. The H'nemtheans have blue-gray skin,
and their faces are covered with three ridges of bone and skin running from their cheeks to their chins. They have graceful noses and
feathery eyelashes covering bright green eyes. The H'nemtheans are not Force-sensitive, as are the Gotals. The females also have
silver, knife-shaped tongues, which are used as part of a bizarre mating ritual. When a female consummates her relationship with a
male, she eviscerates him with her tongue, leaving him for dead. It is believed that this ritual is a biological reaction to the existence of
twenty males for every female on H'nemthe. When the Empire subjugated their homeworld, many H’nemtheans abandonded it. Many
joined the Alliance, working from a base on Anoat to coordinate the shipping of supplies throughout the galaxy. (TME, CCG7, CCG9)
H'ratth
this ancient Jedi Master Chamma established his training facility on this lush planet. (TOJC)

H’sishi
this female Togorian joined Talon Karrde’s smuggling operation shortly after the New Republic put down Dolph’s bid for power on
Almania. H'sishi had been living as a scavenger on the planet Torpris, eking out an existence by obtaining the choicest scrap material
and selling it to the highest bidder. She helped Mara Jade escape from the palace of Chay Praysh, during Mara's attempt to rescue
Sansia Bardrin. H'sishi sustained several injuries, and was taken to Karrde's medical facility after the rescue. As H'sishi healed, Mara
told Karrde about the Togorian's resourcefulness, and Karrde agreed to meet with her and discuss a position in his organization. She
had earned her way onto the bridge of the Wild Karrde shortly before the revelation of the Caamas Document, and saw minimal action
as the ship’s main scanner operator. When Karrde set out to meet Booster Terrik on the Errant Venture, the bridge crew kept the exact
nature of Terrik’s ship. When she recognized that a Star Destroyer was waiting for them after they dropped out of hyperspace, she
reacted quite violently, but checked her emotions quickly to provide an accurate description of the ship. With this initiation behind her,
H'sishi grew into one of the more competent members of Kaarde's bridge crew. (SOP, VOF, TFNR)
H'uun

Hai, Korkeal
this hyper-kinetic human female was a native of the Shesharile system, where she spent her youth rebuilding a light freighter. She was
not an expert on all the systems, and spent a large part of her earnings on a Clone Wars-era computer. She used the computer to
assist in her engineering work, although the computer’s personality was continually at odds with her own. The ship, a modified
Gymsnor-3 freighter call the Riff-Raff, was completed just prior to the Battle of Yavin, and the aging computer was installed in it.
Korkeal, while not extremely proficient in all starship systems, nevertheless was eager to try and implement new systems on the Riff-
Raff, and much of the ship’s cargo space was taken up with spare parts. (GG6)
Haik Expedition
this group of interplanetary explorers set out to find a reliable hyperspace lane between the Enarc Run and the Harrin Trade Corridor
during the early years of the Old Republic’s Expansionist Period. They found the Kira System, located between the Lazerian and
Ropagi Systems, and used the system as a reference point and hyperspace anchor for their route. Thus, they discovered the Kira Run.

Hajj
this being was the Captain of the Star of Empire shortly after the Battle of Yavin. He was less than happy when he was told that the Star
of Empire would be the first ship outfitted with the Systems Integration Manager,and even less happy about Malik's assignment to
install it. When the ship suddenly experienced an engine reactor breach, Hajj and his crewmen assisted the passengers to the escape
pods. They were on the ship as the computer suddenly declared the emergency under control, and they met up with Dash Rendar and
Zak and Tash Arranda. They attempted to make their way to the communications room, but several of the crewmen died in various
attacks along the way. They decided to crawl through cable pipes to get to the communications room, but Hajj was attacked by a
multitude of crab-like maintenance droids. In trying to defend himself against their attack, he let go of his grip and plunged to his death
at the bottom of the cable pipe. (GOF10)
Hakartha Station

a Noghri clan. (TLC)
Hako Armado
this Rodian dramatist was considered quite ancient, old enough that the spikes on his head were turning gray. During the early years of
the New Republic, few suspected that Hako was also a skilled and deadly assassin. What fewer still knew was that many of his kills
were fakes, arranged by the target themselves to escape trouble. (HR)
Hal
this Imperial Navy officer served as the first mate on the shuttle Resurgence during the Galactic Civil War. (SWCP)
Hal, Leor
this man was a strong and ppwerful student of the Jedi arts, who embraced the theory of the Potentium and began guiding other Jedi
students along its pathways. Many regarded him as an idealist, until his beliefs started to interfere with his Jedi training. When the Jedi
Masters dismissed all the followers of the Potentium, nearly 100 years before the Battle of Naboo, Leor Hal went out into the galaxy and
discovered Zonama Sekot. He recruited a group of Ferroans and a group of Langhesi to help him establish a new civilization on the
planet, and he eventually came to know the being known as Sekot. Leor Hal established a symbiotic relationship with Sekot, and
helped turn the planet into a huge, organic factory. Much of the Zonaman philosophy and leadership came from Hal's own experiences,
which he imparted to the planetary society. The plan to create Sekotan starships and sell them to the greater galaxy was Hal's plan,
designed to raise enough money to finance the huge hyperdrive cores which were woven into the tampasi and later used to launch the
planet into hyperspace, when it came under attack by Wilhuff Tarkin. After his death, the Zonaman's considered his name to be sacred,
and forbid anyone to use it out loud. Sekot used a holographic representation of Hal to maintain the status quo on Zonama Sekot, until
his withered, dead body was discovered by Anakin Skywalker and Jabitha, during their escape from Tarkin's attack. (RP)
Halabar
this firm but gentle Mon Calamari professor was respected on his homeworld, but was captured and taken as a "pet" during the early
stages of the Empire's occupation of Calamari. On Coruscant, he lived in the household of a minor Imperial official, but soon escaped

Halanit
this moon orbited a gas giant which was colonized during the last days of the Old Republic. The moon's surface is covered with a thick
ice crust, but beneath the crust the inner heat of the moon's core creates pockets of breathable atmosphere. The primary settlement
was built just below the ice, in a fissure which was covered with a double-paneled transparisteel dome. The settlers developed
ichthyoculture farms, and produced some of the galaxy's best fish. Shortly before the Battle of Endor, the settlement began feeling the
effects of an epidemic that resembled the Cardooine Chills, and was one of the first worlds to receive bacta from Rogue Squadron. The
settlement was destroyed by the Thyferran Home Defense Corps for accepting the bacta. (BW)
Halbara
this planet is the primary world in the Halbara System. Located in the Elrood Sector, this planet is owned and operated by Radell
Mining. The majority of the planet is covered by tropical rainforests, but it is also ravaged by monsoons most of the year. This makes
mining difficult, but Radell has found the rewards worth the pain. They have stationed a security force on Halbara, and have given them
authorization to shoot first and ask questions later. (PG)

Halbert, Elias
generally regarded as a drunkard and a liar, this smuggler wasn't always inebriated. Much of his early career was marked by successful
missions, until he started losing ships and crewmembers. Elias was suddenly a liability, and many of his old employers stopped calling.
A huge man, Elias made a small ripple when he ended up on Socorro, as his reputation and his drinking preceded him. The Society of
the Black Bha'lir accepted him, but they never made any effort to clean him up. However, shortly after the Battle of Yavin, he caught the
attention of Abdi-Badawzi. The Twi'lek saw that Halbert retained a spark of potential, and took an interest in rehabilitating him. Halbert
began making a concerted effort to clean up his act. He reworked his starship, the Seldom Different, and struggled to stay sober while
Abdi-Badawzi began funneling jobs his way. (BSS)
Halbret
this ancient Jedi Knight fell from the Light Side and began learning anything he could about the Dark Side and Sith teachings. When he
felt a strange disturbance in the Force, he sought out its source and discovered the Cthol race and their Codex. Greedy and evil,

the Caamasi was the one who brought word of Nejaa's death to Corellia. When he died on a mission shortly after the Clone Wars,
Rostek cared for Halcyon's family, eventually falling in love with - and marrying - Halcyon's widow. He also adopted the ten-year-old
Valin, but nicknamed him Hal, in honor of his father. Nejaa had given Rostek a Jedi Credit medallion, which Rostek passed on to Hal,
who in turn passed it to Corran Horn. Corran discovered the existence of Nejaa during his escape from Lusankya, as he stumbled upon
a buried Jedi museum near the Galactic Museum. Corran also discovered Nejaa's lightsaber, which he put to use in his escape. Nejaa's
true relationship to Corran was revealed by Luke Skywalker, shortly after Tycho Celchu was released from prison. (KT)
Halcyon, Scerra

the heroes who fought valliantly during their civil war. Ornamental tombstones contained holographic projectors, which displayed a
hologram of the deceased and gave a short history of their own struggle with the enemy. Each side of the struggle sought to detroy the
other's Halls, in an effort to demoralize their opponent. (DOD)

Halmad
this planet was located in the Outer Rim Territories, and was just outside the area of the galaxy controlled by Warlord Zsinj during the
early years of the New Republic. It was the site of a variety of mining colonies during the era of the Old Republic, with facilities on the
planet, on its three moons, and situation among the asteroid surrounding it. However, about 100 years before the Battle of Endor, the
mines ran dry and were abandoned. Commerce kept the planet’s population intact, because Halmad is located at a nexus of several
trade routes. Thus, it held some importance during the Galactic Civil War and the struggles between the New Republic and Zsinj. A
small Imperial garrison was put in place, with a few TIE Fighters and, later, TIE Interceptors. The planet was chosen as the “proving
ground” for the Hawk-bat pirates, who executed several successful pirate raids on the planet, including the theft of several TIE
Interceptors from the Imperial installation. (IF)
Halmad Prime
this grain alcohol was one of the primary exports of the planet Halmad. It was regarded as the best, and most expensive, alcohol

people as savages. When the village elder tried to make peace, the stormtroopers murdered him then exterminated much of the
village's population. Hamalcal managed to escape, and stowed away on an Alliance landing ship. He fled Kaellin III, and has been
roaming the galaxy ever since. He is known as a barbarian and a loose cannon who cares little for technology. However, he does know
the difference between the Empire and the Alliance, and took every opportunity to attack Imperial troopers with his trusty vibroaxe.

Hamame, Vol
this man was, at one time, a member of Big Gizz’s swoop gang on the planet Tatooine. He despised Spiker, and eventually split with
the gang, although not on amicable terms. Hamame then went into the information business, primarily stealing what he couldn’t obtain
himself. Shortly after the death of Jabba the Hutt, Hamame also became a hired gun. Working with the alien Phedroi, they took many
jobs in the city of Mos Eisley. The last job they took came as a result of Dengar’s trying to alert Kuat of Kuat that Boba Fett was still
alive. Hamame and Phedroi figured that they could kill the armored bounty hunter and reap a nice profit for delivery of his body.
However, Fett and Dengar managed to elude them long enough to get a signal to Slave I. Hamame and Phedroi pinned the bounty
hunters down in a small desert cave, but Fett brought his ship from orbit to land on top of them. (MA)
Hamaz
this Imperial officer was in charge of fleet operations near Kuat, when he was captured by the bounty hunter Xufal D'uat. The bounty
called for the capture of an Alliance gunrunner, and D'uat ws amazed to discover that Hamaz was an Imperial. Hamaz bargained for his
release, but D'uat insisted on having a recorded confession of Hamaz's crimes, in case the Imperial tried to have him killed. In the end,
Hamaz did have D'uat killed, but he was unable to recover the recorded confession. (SS)
Hamiroz, Zaz
this man was one of the miners who traveled to the remains of Alderaan to search out valuable ores. He and Hanos Darr discovered
that the existence of the Royal Palace of Alderaan amid the rubble was simply a rumor spread by Darth Vader himself, in an effort to
lure Leia Organa back to Alderaan. Both Hamiroz and Darr were able to get to the herdship Bazaar, where they hoped to get a
message off to the Alliance. Instead, they found themselves being tracked by the assassin droid XS3.

However, Shada D'ukal and the surviving Mistryls managed to steal the laser cannons and carry it to Tatooine. (TME)
Hamner, Kenth
this young man was a student at the Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4, during the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. Kenth was born
to welathy parents, and was tall and well-built. Prior to his Jedi training, Hamner had been a member of the Corellian Defense Force,
but resigned his commission to follow the Force. He later joined the New Republic military as a strategist, and earned the rank of
Colonel. After the Battle of Fondor, Hamner became the voice of the Jedi Knights within the New Republic military, but was unable to
get any real results with the military because of the Republic’s general lack of resources. His efforts were further impeded by Viqi
Shesh’s duplicitous relationship with the Yuuzhan Vong, claiming that SELCORE resources were better used on other worlds. (JE, BP)

Hand of Thrawn
this was the codename of the hidden fortress maintained by a contingent of Chiss on Nirauan. Grand Admiral Thrawn had left a large
number of his race behind with distinct orders to await his return ten years after his departure. It was set up some twenty years before
Thrawn's first reign of terror. The caves and tunnels beneath the fortress were lined with cortosis ore, and a large population of
ysalamiri were imported, in order to protect the compound from the new crop of Jedi Knights. During the intervening time, they kept a
huge assortment of weapons and warships armed and ready for his return. The existence of the fortress - which had five large towers,
and resembled an up-turned hand - was kept secret until the New Republic discovered a cache of Imperial datacards on Wayland, at
Mount Tantiss. A card entitled "The Hand of Thrawn" was unreadable, however. Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade managed to discover
the location of Nirauan after backtracking the trails of ships which attacked them at Kauron. Mara was captured there, and Luke
returned to rescue her. They were able to escape from the fortress and provide the Republic with information on its whereabouts. (VOF)

Hapan
this is the name used to describe the humans which are native to the planet Hapes. They differ from normal humans in two ways. First,
they are considered quite handsome and beautiful as a race. Second, they are unable to see well in the dark because of the fact that
the planet Hapes is continually bathed in light, either from its sun or from the seven moons that orbit the planet. (CTD)
Hapan Ale
a mildly-intoxicating beverage brewed in the Hapes cluster. (HTF)
Hapan Cluster

inferior to most Imperial or Republic ships in terms of power generators and weapons systems. (EGV)
Hapan Stinger
a security escort vessel built on Hapes. (L)
Hapes
1) this was the primary star in the Hapan System, and was generally considered the central body of the Hapes cluster (CPL)
2) originally settled by a group of pirates called the Lorell Raiders, the planet Hapes later became a neutral system when the Jedi
Knights wiped out the Raiders when they started making raids into Old Republic supply centers. The surviving women swore never to
let a man run the government following this defeat. The system was later overrun by the Empire, but Ta'a Chume (the Queen Mother at
the time) built a powerful armed forces and drove the Imperial out. The Hapans are known for their belligerence. The planet orbits the
star Hapes, and has been the seat of the Hapan government for as long as anyone can remember. The planet has seven moons. The
light from these moons, as well as from the star Hapes, has caused the natives to lose much of their ability to see at night. The average
day on Hapes lasts 22 standard hours, and the year on Hapes encompasses 240 local days. (CPL, CTD)
Hapes Cluster
a system of 63 star systems, it was originally settled by a group of pirates called the Lorell Raiders, and was overrun by the Empire until
Ta'a Chume ousted them. She ruled with an iron fist until her heir, Prince Isolder, chose Teneniel Djo to be his wife and the next
Chume. Teneniel Djo brought the Hapans into the New Republic. There were at least 119 known worlds within the Cluster's
boundaries, of which 12 were unsettled at the time of the New Republic's negotiations with Ta'a Chume. Following Prince Isolder's
marriage to Teneniel Djo, twelve of these worlds aligned themselves directly with the New Republic. The Cluster has four distinct
regions: the Interior Region, which is considered the heart of the Cluster and contains Hapes; the Rifle Worlds, named for the fact
that these industrial worlds once tried to secede from the Hapes Consortium; the Rim Worlds, which bordered on the rest of the known
galaxy; and the Transitory Mists Region, which is filled with nebulous gases and is home to many pirate groups. (CPL, CTD)
Hapes Consortium
the governing body of the of 63 star systems of the Hapes Cluster, the Consortium was controlled by the Queen Mother. Each of the
member planets had a vote in all matters of state, and the Queen Mother’s vote could be called upon in the even of a tie. For many
generations, the Hapes Consortium advocated isolation from the rest of the galaxy, preferring to stay out of the struggles of the Galactic
Civil War. However, when Leia Organa-Solo pleaded with the Consortium for aid in combatting the Yuuzhan Vong, a vote was taken to
determine whether the Hapans would help. The member worlds were divided in their support, and only a foolish duel between Prince
Isolder and Archon Beed Thane settled the matter in favor of supporting the New Republic. However, in the aftermath of the Battle of
Fondor, in which most of the Hapan fleet was destroyed before it could bring its weapons to bear, the Consortium voted to isolate itself
completely from the New Republic. (COJ, JE)
Happer

Pleasant City. (PG2)
Happy Blasters:
this group of mercenary scouts was named for their usual response to any form of opposition: they just started firing their blasters at

Hargeeva
this temperate world, the third of five in the Pelonat System, was nothing more than a backwater planet until the Empire discovered it
was rich in mineral deposits. It was originally settled some 2,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, but support for the colonists was cut
off. The society reverted to a feudal state, and remained that way until the Empire showed up. The limited government was unable to
stop Imperial subjugation, and high-tech refineries and a full garrison were quickly installed. The planet remained under Imperial control
for many years. The average day on Hargeeva lasts 23 standard hours, and its year encompasses 380 local days. (SWJ8)

Endor, Harkness worked as an independent operative for the Alliance and the New Republic. Harkness was a trusted source of
information to Airen Cracken, although his freelance status meant that other members of the Republic didn’t trust him. He was a
stubborn man, and a native of the planet Salliche. Shortly after the Battle of Endor, he had been working with Platt Okeefe and her
band of mercenaries, and was captured by Imperial forces. He was imprisoned on Zelos II, and shared a dark cell with Jai Raventhorn.

then helped her escape before the base was destroyed. (RASB)
Harleys, Diblen
this native of the planet Coruscant grew up at the height of the New Order. His father was a privileged bureaucrat, which helped
insulate Diblen from the worst of the atrocities of the Imperial war machine. His mother died when he was fifteen, about the time he
resolved to join the Imperial Survey Corps and explore Wild Space. His father sat him down and explained to him the harsh realities of
a scout's life, as well as the true nature of the Empire. His father had kept his dissident thoughts to himself, and warned Diblen to do the
same. Diblen, however, believed that the right thing to do was to fight, and he joined the Alliance at his first chance. He proved to be a
confident fighter pilot and tactician, and was a valuable resource during the planning of the Battle of Endor. He retained his love for

Harran Estillo
this individual was an Imperial agent planted on Eiattu to impersonate Harrandatha, the only son of Uthorrferrell Cartha thought to be
executed during the Priamsta’s overthrowing of Uthorrferrell Cartha. He was given a ring very similar to one given to Harrandatha by
Darth Vader, as a way to prove his story. Estillo then created the People’s Liberation Battallion, hoping to overthrow the Priamsta and
gain control of the planet himself. When not in his guise of Harrandatha, Estillo had a running relationship with Leonia Tavira, who
helped him make headway against the Priamsta. His ruse was eventually exposed by Plourr, who killed the real Harrandatha on the
night of the Priamsta’s coup in order to escape. (XWWP)
Harrandatha
this royal youth was Plourr Ilo’s younger brother and the true son of Uthorrferrell Cartha. Unlike other members of the family,
Harrandatha was a failure of the Eiattuan genetic engineers. He was sadistic and cruel, torturing small animals for fun and choosing the
philosophy of the New Order over that of the Old Republic. The happiest day of his life was the day Darth Vader arrived on Eaittu to
inspect a new garrison. He met the Dark Lord, who played on the youth’s loyalties and created a devote follower of Palpatine’s rule.
Vader left him a small, jeweled ring as a symbol of their friendship, although the ring was truly meant to control Harrandatha’s mind.
When Uthorrferrell was executed by the Priamsta, it was Harrandatha who caught Plourr during the royal family’s flight. He tried to
sound an alarm, but Plourr bludgeoned him with a rock and killed him. The ring was later recovered and used by Harran Estillo to
impersonate Harrandatha. (XWWP)
Harrar
this Yuuzhan Vong priest was placed in a position of command during Nom Anor's second wave of attacks against the New Republic.
The use of religious commanders came after the defeat of Shedao Shai at Ithor, and the loss of the fleet under the command of Deign
Lian. Harrar was one of the few Yuuzhan Vong who recognized the true threat of the Jedi Knights, and he was the first to suggest
outright aggression against them. He agreed to the plan to have Elan infiltrate the Jedi Order as a hostage, all the while harboring a
deadly bioweapon in her lungs. Harrar went so far as to suggest an alliance with the remaining Sith lords, if they could be found. Harrar
spent much of his time consulting specific auguries, hoping to determine the best course of action for the invading force. When Elan's
mission failed and was reviewed with supreme commander Nas Choka, Harrar was reassigned to the Outer Rim with Commander Tla.
(HT)
Harravan
a Hapan privateer who killed Isolder's older brother. Isolder hunted the man down and captured him, but chose to make an example out
of him rather than murder him. Unfortunately for Isolder, Harravan was killed in prison before he could stand trial and reveal the names

felt was too weak to become a ruler of Hapes. (CPL, EGC)

this Victory-class Star Destroyer was commanded by Captain Marl Semtin in the years leading up to - and immediately following - the
Battle of Endor. (XWBT)
Harrowbane
this caustic weed was native to the planet Randorn 2. The native Mizx believed that the plant prevented the ibliton from invading their
villages. They considered the plant sacred, and planted borders around their villages with the plant. This belief is based partly in reality,
since the touch of the harrowbane actually burns the exposed skin of the ibliton's tentacles. (COG)
Harrsk
an Imperial Navy Captain who served during the Battle of Endor, Harrsk's Star Destroyer was severely damaged in the battle, and
Harrsk received a number of greivous burns all over his face and body. He fled with the remnants of the fleet to the Core, where he let
his skin heal naturally, preserving forever the scars the Alliance had given him. The only repair he allowed was the addition of a droid's
optical sensor to replace his lost eye. Since the Battle of Endor, Harrsk has mustered the remaining Imperial starships, and began small
harassment attacks on the New Republic. as his power grew, Harrks became more and more of a dissenter, active during Leia Organa
Solo's reign as the Chief of State for the New Republic. Harrsk sought to restore the New Order to the galaxy. He was thought to have a
base on Spuma, from which he was manufacturing Imperial-class Star Destroyers for his fleet. Admiral Daala offered to join with Harrsk
following the destruction of her fleet and the Eye of Palpatine. When he refused, and ordered her to take command of his fleet against
Teradoc, Daala set out to unite the feuding warlords or die. In ther end, Daala found it best to kill of the childish warlords - Harrsk
included - when they failed to reach an agreement at the summit on Tsoss Beacon. (COJ, DS)
Harsis
this dark-skinned man served as a sensor officer aboard the Direption, under the command of Commander Darron, during the defense

Harson, Crin
this Imperial Moff was discovered dead in his rooms on the resort world of Traflin, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. A group of Alliance

killer was discovered by the Alliance agents. (GMS)
Harthan
this diplomatic conselor worked for the Tion Hegemony. An elder statesman with many successful negotiations in his history, Harthan
was called upon to intercede for the Troobs and Hobors on Tahlboor, hoping to create a lasting peace between the races while
obtaining trading rights on Tahlboor. His son, Jake, however, was not interested in restoring peace to the planet. Instead, he wanted
control of Mount Yeroc. Jake skillfully manipulated his father out of the counselor’s position, taking it for himself. Harthan was somewhat
powerless to stop the ensuing struggles, but eventually discovered his son’s treachery with the help of R2-D2 and C-3PO. When the
Troobs and Hobors realized that they could use Mount Yeroc as a way to bring their races together, they asked Harthan to tell the Tion
Hegemony that they wanted to work things out on their own. (DRPC)
Harthan, Jake
ths son of the Tion Hegemony’s Counselor Harthan, Jake managed to acquire R2-D2 and C-3PO on Rudrig, after the droids left the
service of Governor Wena on Kalarba. Jake later accompanied his father to Tahlboor. There, while his father was trying to work with the
Hobors and Troobs to restore peace, Jake discovered the power of Mount Yeroc and the sky cannon. Hoping to obtain the power for
himself, he set in motion a plan that would remove his father from the negotiations. This accomplished, Jake insinuated himself into the
counselor’s position. From there, he silently killed Ket Krax and tried to frame Larka Nimondro for the murder. Jake hoped that this
would ignite a civil war, removing him to take control of Mount Yeroc. Unfortunately, the droids R2-D2 and C-3PO discovered that Jake
was the culprit. Although they only had the simplest of evidence, C-3PO bluffed Jake by claiming to have a holo-vid of the crime taking
place, as well as fingerprints. In truth, all the droids had was the vibro-shiv used to commit the crime. They knew that the Hobors never
used vibro-shivs, and took an educated guess. Jake fell for the bluff and admitted to the crime, taking Madame Krax hostage. She bit
his hand and distracted him long enough for a Troob to launch a spear at him. The shot was true, and Jake was killed when he fell into
the sky cannon he so desired. (DRPC)

Hask, Loka
this man attended from the Imperial Academy on Carida, but was expelled for grifting his classmates. He was returned to his
homeworld just in time to witness the public execution of his father. Hask took his meager inheritance, along with the hidden caches of
credits and valuables his father had stashed away, and bought a small starship. He began a small-time pirating operation, and
eventually worked his way up to become the leader of the Bonestar Pirates. He led the Corellian authorities on a chase through the
Corellian System in the armed freighter Buzzzer, and tried to lose them at Gus Treta. His plan was to create a large enough diversion to
allow the pirates to escape from notice. He landed at the Jagged Antilles' fuel depot, and requested that his ship be refueled. In the
midst of refueling, Hask ordered his ship to lift off. This resulted in a ruptured fuel linkage that spewed volatile fuel everywhere. The
backwash from his ship's thrusters ignited the fuel, destroying the Antilles' depot. Jagged and Zena Antilles died trying to contain the
damage, but Wedge was removed from the conflagration by Booster Terrik. Terrik did not stand in Wedge's way when the youth
demanded revenge, and Hask found himself again the hunted. Wedge and Booster managed to severely damage the Pirate's ship,
leaving them for dead. Hask, fearing for his own life, took the only usable spacesuit and escaped the destruction. However, a parasite
had hidden in the suit, and attacked Hask. It latched onto his face, and Hask never found a suitable method for removing it without
inflicting great damage to himself. He vowed to hunt down Wedge Antilles for the loss of his pirates and ship. He later managed to
became a member of the Imperial forces, and was one of the neogitators trying to obtain the Mrlssi Phantom cloaking device. He was
pitted against Wedge Antilles in the negotiations, and managed to frame the Rogues in an incident of theft. Wedge escaped, and was
able expose Hask's treachery. However, Hask escaped to Rorax Falken's lab, where he discovered the gravitic polarization beam.
When the suddenly activated, Hask was caught too near the device. It developed a huge feedback loop, opening a wormhole and
swallowing Hask, the lab, and a nearby Star Destroyer. (XWPA, HXW)

AT-AT walkers. These floating cylinders have fully-independent, full-sweep heavy blaster cannons mounted on a topside turrent. The
two guns sweep across the field of fire, eventually locking onto the target. The fortress is also equipped with a sophisticated sensor
package modeled after assassin droids. The package creates a 30-meter bubble around the vehicle which is extremely effective at
locating targets. This has made the HAVr A9 all the more effective, as the sight of a huge repulsor tank homing in on a single target and
swiftly eliminating it is awesome to behold. (ISB)

Helas
this unusual creature, native to the moist world of Enaleh, resembled a flying snake or eel. They were filter feeders, but traveled through
the air to catch their prey instead of the water. Given Enaleh's damp atmosphere, the helas were amphibious. The offspring evolved in
the water, but the adults preferred to fly through the air. Their heads were essentially large baskets, with four jaw-like flaps which
opened up to collect small insects. Four long tentacles grew from the corners of their mouths, and presumably helped them detect their
prey. Helas lacked wings, and seemed to have an internal organ which acted in much the same was as a repulsorlift engine did.
Scientists have been studying the helas species to determine the exact nature of their flying ability, but have been unable to pinpoint it.

this strange void is located near the planet Attahox, and was controlled by the Five. Its presence is obvious from the ring os asteroids
which surround it. In the center is an unusual, extrea-dimensional portal. Shaped like a triangle, this portal twists open when starships
approach it. Once the ships are drawn in, the triangle twists closed. The Five captured starships within the Hellhoop and took great
pleasure torturing the crews and passengers. The sadistic desires of the Five became their destruction when they captured Han Solo,
Leia Organa, and Chewbacca some years after the Battle of Hoth. Chewbacca was imprisoned in the Menagerie, while Han and Leia

Helm Iskraker
this small-time criminal is someone who bounty hunters consider to be "pin money". Iskraker was a humanoid with rolling layers of gold-
colored skin which shimmered as it moved. As his skin shifted against itself, it sloughed off golden flakes. He traveled the galaxy in his
own ship, the Erratic Orbit. Iskraker was known as a bumbler, and virtually every operation he started ended in failure. He worked
tirelessly to improve his standing within the criminal underworld, and often blamed his mistakes on his friend Widget. When Doctor
Vreen hired Iskraker to break into SecuriCo and steal the codes to open the locks to Cloud City's computer core, Iskraker managed to
obtain the plans without being caught. His theft was discovered, though the authorities of SecuriCo could never trace him. (GG9, CCC)

Helot’s Shackle
this heavily-modified CR90 corvette was captained by Ngyn Reeos. The ship was part of the fleet which guarded Kessel during the
early years of the New Order, and was dispatched to assist in transporting processed spice off Ylesia. It was distinguishable by the
symbol of a hand dripping blood displayed on her flanks (as well as those of the ships accompanying her), a slavers’ symbol which
meant “no quarter given.” One of the major modifications to the ship was the addition of a docking bay in the bottom. The ship chased
Han Solo and Bria Tharen as they escaped from Ylesia with Murrrgh and Mrrov, but failed to capture them. The ship was also used to
transport slaves off Ylesia, and was once attacked by Bria Tharen and her Corellian Resistance, who hoped to rescue the slaves. The
crew was either dispatched or surrendered, and Bria took control of the starship. She renamed it Emancipator. (TPS, RD)

with ice, and the atmosphere is choked with vaporous fog. Yomin Carr had scouted the planet before he joined the group on ExGal-4,
and had left behind villips to help monitor the creation of the base. It was a small world, no more than a few thousand kilometers in
diameter. The fifth planet, just outside Helska's orbit, was an uninhabitable gas giant. When the New Republic finally discovered how to
destroy the Praetorite Vong's yammosk, which was hidden inside the planet, they forced the world to warm and then re-solidify via the
Mezzicanley Wave effect. Helska's matter was unable to handle the strain of the effect, and shattered into a billion pieces of ice and
rock. (VP)

might of the Empire. Imperial forces slaughtered Herglics virtually at will, until the Herglics surrendered. The Herglic society is
punctuated by great explorers and merchants, but they tend to become addicted to gambling quite easily. They are also self-conscious
about their size and unusual physical characteristics. (DFR, DFRSB, AE)

Het Nkik
a Jawa youth who, during the last years of the Empire, felt that Jawas should note be pacifists. He felt that any Jawa could stand up to
any threat, given the right tools. He learned this after he was caught by a group of Sand People. He was able to drive them away by
setting off an loud alarm on a crashed T-16 skyhopper he'd found. This attitude didn't sit well with Wimateeka, his clan leader, who
clung to the belief that Jawas needed to remain as the galaxy's whipping dogs. Het and his best friend and clansman, Jek Nkik, once
rebuilt a damaged E522 assassin droid, creating a messenger droid and selling it to Valarian. When Hrar Kkak sold him a DL-44 blaster
at a Jawa swap meet, Het knew that he could use it to destroy some of the Imperial stormtroopers who were harassing the Jawas and
Sand People. He was in the Mos Eisley cantina, planning his attack, when Luke Skywalker and Ben Kenobi were trying to book
passage to Alderaan. While there, Het bargained with a Ranat named Reegesk for the possession of a bantha-horn talisman. The
talisman was a sign of Het's success. He ran out into the street, not knowing that Reegesk had pocketed the blaster's power cell. Het
attacked Davin Felth's squadron, but the gun proved useless. Het Nkik was executed by stormtrooper 1047. (TME, CCG2)

Hethrir
a Firrerreo who had a remarkable amount of vision. He grew to a leadership position on Firrerre, and convinced his people that they
had to colonize their nearby planetary neighbors or overrun their planet. However, they did not have hyperdrive capabilities yet, so they
set out in sublight ships equipped with hibernation beds. He eventually fell in love with Rillao, and they were married. When the Empire
began hunt down alien races because of Palpatine's xenophobia, Hethrir and Rillao came within the influence of Darth Vader. Vader
ecognized Hethrir's Force-sensitivity, and secretly kept both Hethrir and Rillao as Jedi students. As part of his Jedi training, Hethrir built
a unique lightsaber, which could only be activated by using the Force to complete certain circuits. Vader also believed that a child of
their union would be exceedingly strong. As Hethrir grew in power and eventually sired a son, Tigris, he gained favor in Vader's eyes.
Tigris turned to have no Force sensititivy whatsoever, and was placed aboard one of the Firrerreo colony ships. Hethrir helped turn over
his planet and his people to the Empire by allowing the Empire to biologically destroy Firrerre and by giving the Empire the colony ships'
flight plans. These acts helped solidify Hethrir's position with Vader as it alienated him from Rillao, who strongly disagreed with Vader's
plans. Vader eventually appointed him Procurator of Justice for the Empire, and the atrocities Hethrir perpetrated became infamous.
When Vader appointed Hethrir as the overseer for the Crseih Space Station, Hethrir turned the science outpost into a prison, cruelly
torturing the prisoners there. This led to the emergence of Waru into the galaxy, and Hethrir struck a deal with Waru: absolute power
over the Force in return for getting Waru back to his galaxy. This could only be accomplished by allowing Waru to consume a large
amount of Force energy, and Hethrir began sacrificing his prisoners to Waru. When the Empire crumbled after the Battle of Endor,
Hethrir went into hiding, all the while formulating plans to restore the Empire. He eventually found Rillao again, and took her to the
stranded colony ships, where he placed her in hibernation as he took Tigris as a slave. Hethrir had also determined that the Solo
children were strong enough in the Force that they would help him return Waru to its own galaxy, and so he devised the kidnapping of
the children on Munto Codru. Hethrir's plans were foiled, however, by a series of events which led to the New Republic's presence at
Crseih station, and Hethrir was eventually consumed by Waru himself, allowing Waru to return to its own galaxy. Hethrir had striped
hair, colored with gold, copper, and cinnamon brown. He has very pale skin and a square face. (CS)

this Corellian gambler and privateer won the ownership of the planet Oasis in a crooked sabacc match. He travelled to the planet to see
how oxite was mined, but was impressed with the ability of the Riders of the Maelstrom to pick off passing ships and pirate their cargo.
Higron set up his own base of operations on Oasis, much to the chagrin of Big Jak Targrim and the Riders. Higron felt that competition
was the galactic way, and soon was making his own profits. Higron was a quiet supporter of the Alliance, so he only preyed on Imperial
craft. The increased scrutiny of Imperial losses angered Targrim, and he vowed to capture a starship and ram it into the planet Oasis.

bureau, and proved to be an excellent Intelligence operative. (TLC, TTSB)
Hin
a Yuzzem slave who was working for the Empire on Circarpous V. He, along with Kee, were getting fed up with the demands place on
them by the local Imperials, and started destroying everything they saw. They were imprisoned by Grammel, and continued to wreak
havoc by killing their fellow prisoners. This was OK with Grammel, as it helped eliminate certain captives. When Grammel placed Luke
and Leia in the Yuzzems' cell, Luke began to communicate with them, and gained Hin and Kee's trust. Together, they escaped the
prison compound and set out to find the Temple of Pomojema and the Kaiburr crystal. Hin was fatally injured by Darth Vader outside
the temple, but managed to survive long enough to rescue Luke. (SME)

Hirken, Mirkovig
a Corporate Sector Authority's Vice President, Hirken was born to one of the oldest families to live on the planet Alsakan, in the Galactic
Core. Mirkovig was the youngest of nine children, and ld a pamperde and spoiled life. His parents urged all of their children to uphold
their family honor by choosing a calling and doing the best at it. To this end, private tutors, fine schools, and unlimited expenses were at
his disposal. His parents felt that Mirkovig was meant to do something truly wonderful. After reading about his ancestor, Arlo Hirken,
and the adventures he had with Rin Assid, Mirkovig decided to pursue a career in economics and politics. He graduated with honors,
and was hired by the Corporate Sector Authority. He was placed on the fast track to powerful positions, and was soon betrothed to the
daughter of the Duke of Opatajji. Mirkovig and Neera were soon married, and her insensitivity placed undue demands on him to
become more and more powerful and bring her more and more credits to spend. He was placed in charge of Corporate Security just
before work began on the Stars' End penal colony on Mytus VII. Hirken oversaw construction of the facility with the Detention Task
Force and Lady Chawkroft. He was a tall, fatherly man with a full head of white hair, well-manicured and laquered finernails, and flashy
clothes. Hirken created "the list" of candidates for incarceration at Stars' End, and many of them were vocal opponents of the Corporate
Sector Authority. He was killed just after Han Solo triggered the explosion which launched the colony's central tower into orbit. He was
trying to escape without first helping his wife and the Security officers in the tower, and his wife shot him in the back with a blaster.

desire to obtain rudic crystals from the planet. (GG12)
Hirsoot
this bat-eared humanoid was one of Orko’s servants. Unknown to Orko, Hirsoot was also employed as a spy by Gorga the Hutt. Hirsoot
attempted to poison Orko, shortly after Gorga married Anachro, but failed to do so before Orko could travel to Skeebo to rescue
Anachro. Hirsoot had several other opportunities, but never managed to complete the job. Unfortunately for Hirsoot, he was in Orko’s
bedchambers when Ry-Kooda came to kill Orko. Like Orko, Hirsoot was ripped apart by the Koodan, then eaten. (BF)
Hishyim
site of an Imperial patrol station. (TLC)
Hissa
an Imperial Grand Moff serving the Empire after the death of Emperor Palpatine, Hissa is one of Trioculus' most trusted officers. Hissa
has spear-pointed teeth, which point to his alien origins. As part of the Central Committee of Grand Moffs' plan to keep Triclops a secret
and find a way to rule the galaxy following Palpatine's death, Hissa cultivated a friendship with Trioculus, knowing that the three-eyed
mutant could be passed off as the true son of Palpatine. Hissa is severely disfigured on Duro, when the hazardous wastes from
Imperial dumping grounds flood the Valley of Royalty. He falls into the wastes, which eat away most of his body. His arms were then
replaced with the arms of an assassin droid, and his torso was encased on a repulsorlift floating chair. When the Prophets of the Dark
Side sentenced him for treachery against the Empire, he was to be starved aboard Scardia until he was very near death. Then, his final
meal would be given to him: a meal of biscuits laden with parasites that would consume him from the inside out. He never got that far,
for Kadann, suspicious that Triclops' information on the Lost City of the Jedi was false, sent Hissa to investigate. Hissa was then
incinerated in the molten lava core of Yavin 4, at the end of the false entrance to the City. (GDV, MMY, QE, PDS)
Hissal
the Brigian who approaches Han Solo on Saheelindeel. He is accused of being a fugitive by Keek, who is trying to get the university
closed down because of its threat to his power. (HSL)
Hissest
this Sekct leader was the first to encounter the Alliance team which crash-landed on Marca shortly after the Battle of Yavin. She was
considered something of a rebel, and was often avoided or ignored by She-Who-Speaks. She-Who-Speaks forced Hissest to battle one
of the Alliance agents in a test of trust, and Hissest was seriously wounded. This forced She-Who-Speaks to accept the Alliance agents
as friends, at which point the agents revived Hissest. This earned the trust of She-Who-Speaks. (POM)
Hist
the marksman who taught Tirog how to use a blaster. (RPG)
Hitak Harriers
this was one of the Alliance troops which participated in the battles to control Kwymar Sector during the Galactic Civil War. They were
veterans of the Battle of Hoth, and were responsible for defeating the Imperial Hell's Hammers during a siege on Turak IV. They were
named for the volcanic Hitak mountains on the planet. (MB)
Hitak Mountains
found on the planet Turak IV, the volcanic Hitak mountains were used as a strategic hiding place by the Alliance soldiers who fought
there. The struck from the mountains and retreated there, allowing them a goo deal of concealment. (ISB)
Hitcher Crab
native to the wilderness regions of the planet Sevarcos, this large crustacean measured over a meter in length, including its tail.
Rumors told of hitcher crabs exceeding four meters in length, but these stories were discounted mirages. Three large spikes on top of
their shells, and two clawed arms. The hitcher crab produced a slow-acting poison that coated their shells and spikes. They also have
water sacs which they carry inside their shells, allowing them to survive for long periods in the desert. The hitcher crab was a forger,
living on the small rodents and plant life along the canyons. When at rest, they buried themselves in the sand and went into a form of
hibernation. Unsuspecting creatures who stepped on the back of the crab were injected with the poison. Eventually, the victim died from
the wounds, and the crab simply tracked it and consumed it later. (COG)
Hive, The
this was the primary entrance used to gain access to The Pits, located on Stend VI. Hive traffic control was staffed completely with
organic beings, since there was an unspoken hatred of droids at The Pits. The Hive was a tall, honeycombed column which was built
atop the main building, and provided visitors with stalls in which to park their swoops. The hexagonal stalls were particle- and ray-
shielded, and access was given only after the proper identification was given. Turbolifts carried patrons from their stalls to the
entertainment areas below. (WSV)
Hive Palace
the Lady Dhol's castle on Cheelit. (CSWDW)
Hive Rats
large, carnivorous rodents living underground on Coruscant. (AC)
Hive Virus
prior to the Clone Wars, they viruses were fairly widespread. They infected an individual and drove them crazy in a relatively short
period of time. The virus attacks the mental centers of the brain, altering perceptions. They were also highly contagious. After the Clone
Wars, medical technology flourished, and the hive viruses were virtually eliminated throughout the galaxy. (DFR)
Hive Wars
a period of Kubaz culture prior to their discovery of space travel. They Kubaz, struggling to exist on Kubindi despite the intense solar
radiation from the star Ku'Bakai, turned to consuming insects. Each Kubaz clan maintained its own hive of insects for food, but some
were still lacking in sustenance. This sparked a series of inter-clan raids on each others' insect hives, which eventually led to all-out
wars between neighboring clans. These Hive Wars were slowly killing off the Kubaz until their discovery of Insecticulture, which allowed
the Kubaz geneticists to alter the coloration of an insect, thereby identifying whole hives of insects as belonging to a certain clan. This
science also allowed them to breed stronger, heartier insects, and eventually allowed them to provide for all. (SCRE)
Hjaff
this arid, desert planet was the homeworld of the Tarc race. Hjaff had three major continents. The year on Hjaff lasted about 1.25
standard years. (AE, SWJ14)
HK-130
this was a model of small security droid manufactured on Balmorra. Resembling a tiny metal ball with small silver studs, the HK-130
was known as the "trouble seeker," since its primary mission was to search for potential criminals. It would scan each being it
encountered and determine the being's level of threat. If the being resisted, or proved to be troublesome, the HK-130 could fire a
powerful stun beam from one of the small silver studs. (GOF4)

Hmumfmumf
a tree which grows on the jungle world Baskarn, its roots are used by the Yrashu to make ceremonial maces. (SWAJ)
HN-TR Droid
this series of assassin droids was virtually unheard of, since only a single model was ever produced. Analysis of HN-TR1's memory
core indicated that these droids were to be created in order to hunt down members of the Alliance. (AIR)
HN-TR1
this assassin droid was believed to be the only model of the HN-TR series ever produced, primarily because HN-TR1 destroyed its
design team and all its schematics when it was first activated. HN-TR1 killed several Alliance agents before being purchased yby
Ploovo Two-for-One, who used the droid as part of his "Protocol Team." Many individuals who survived encounters with HN-TR1
believed that it was faster and more accurate than IG-88, which it vaguely resembled. (AIR)
Ho'Din
a humanoid race with snakelike head appendages, the Ho'Din have a lilting, singsong language punctuated by movements of their
head appendages. Native to the planet Moltok, these gentle humanoids are known for their ability to treat illnesses and disease using
natural methods, rather than technology. The word "Ho'Din" means "walking flower," a reference to their unusual head appendages.
The Ho'Din can grow to be 3 meters tall and, like the Ithorians, they worship nature and have established laws which prevent the
destruction of their environment. Cold-blooded in nature, the Ho'Din have two hearts, which pump green blood. The appendages on
their heads are actually temperature-sensitive, and allow the Ho'Din to monitor the ambient temperature and maintain body heat. Their
hands have four thick fingers, and a small webbing between them indicates the Ho'Din's amphibious ancestry. As a species, the Ho'Din
are recent additions to the galaxy, descending from arboreal creatures about 300 years before the Galactic Civil War. In their rush to
make room for an increasing population and evolving technology, the Ho'Din cleared much of the surface of Moltok in what is now
referred to as the "great rape of the land." This led to a virulent epidemic that decimated the species. Years of research led to an
understanding of the disease, and brought to light a natural remedy that technology couldn't provide. This formed the basis of their
medical knowledge, and the succeeding generations were taught about the dangers of technology and "progress." The average
lifespan of a Ho'Din is about 120 standard years. (TLC, GG4, LCJ)
Hoat-stick

Hoban
the human captain of the transport ship Star Dream, Hoban transported Evar Orbus and his Galactic Jizz-wailers to Tatooine. (TJP)
HobbyCraft Microweight
this was a model of civilian glider produced by Illiseni Aerodyne. In order to ensure maximum ride capability, the HobbyCraft was
equipped with a powerful repulsor engine. This gave the craft a measure of safety, but its weight reduced its flight ceiling. (ROE)
Hobor
one of the two sentient races native to the planet Tahlboor, the Hobors were humanoid in stature. They had brownish-blue skin, unlike
the Troobs, which tended toward deep blue skin. Both races are characterized by their wide faces, which are flanked by a several rings
of spade-shaped flaps. Five sets of these flaps ring the upper part of the head, and hair is interspersed among the flaps. The flaps
stand upright, away from the head. The rest of their faces are cat-like, with a long, flat nose and toothy mouths. Like their cousins the
Troobs, most Hobors has a thick mane of hair covering the backs of their heads. Most of the Hobors are heavyset in build. Shortly
before the Battle of Yavin, the Troobs and Hobors appealed to Tion Hegemony to assist in reconciling a generations-old feud between
them. Counselor Harthan was called in, but was manipulated out of position by his son, Jake, who hoped to get the two races to destroy
each other so he could control Mount Yeroc. Eventually, with the help of R2-D2 and C-3PO, Jake’s plans were thwarted and peace was
restored. (DRPC)

Hodge
this Starfly pilot worked at Mining Station Alpha during the Galactic Civil War. He was the chief officer of the outpost, but had only two
other workers stationed with him. He frequently worked with the Ithorian Fandomar, providing the Ithorians with minerals they need.
What he didn't know is that most Ithorian visits were also used to make sure that the tomb which held Spore was intact. However, after
discovering the tomb in an air pocket within the asteroid, Hodge was lured back to the tomb and was infected with Spore's entity. When
Fandomar tried to escape the asteroid and return to Ithor, she unwittingly brought Hodge - and Spore - with her. Hodge attacked just as
a rescue team came to recover them, with black vines snaking from his mouth to entwine and infect the Ithorians. Hodge also managed
to capture and infect Hoole and Zak before being cornered by Jerec. Jerec offered Spore the chance to get off Ithor, if it would infect the
crew of the Vengeance and allow Jerec to take control of the ship for his own powers. Spore agreed, but never planned to honor the
agreement. Since Hodge was the primary host, Spore took his body aboard the Star Destroyer and infected the entire crew in just a few
hours, then tried to take control of Tash Arranda. She escaped the warship and fled into the asteroids near Ithor, and Spore gave
chase. A group of space slugs managed to destroy the Vengeance, leaving much of her crew dead. Many members, like Hodge, were
expelled into the vacuum of space and killed. Spore, however, simply went dormant and waited for someone to recover Hodge's body.

Hodidiji
this New Republic Senator was swayed by Tig Peramis and Cian Marook to align with the Yevetha during the Great Purge. Hodidiji

a business competitor of Prince Xizor's, Colby Hoff once took a gamble that he was smarter than Xizor. In the end, Xizor won the
gamble and Hoff was ruined. He committed suicide by firing a blaster into his mouth. His son tried to avenge the suicide when Darth
Vader secretly allowed him into a secure passageway under Imperial City. Xizor was walking the corridor to meet with Palpatine, and
the son attacked. His attack failed miserably, as Xizor quickly disabled him and snapped his neck. (SE)

smuggling mission that inadvertently discovered the Dark Force ships. (DFR)
Hoggon
Ulic Qel-Droma hired this obese man to transport him to as remote a world as possible, so that he could avoid all contact with the
galaxy and find peace with himself. A scavenger and salvager by trade, Hoggon was a friend of the Jedi Knights, but was unaware of
Ulic’s true identity when he dropped the former Jedi on Rhen Var. He then traveled to Exis Station in order to see the Jedi Knights
gathered there for the Exis Convocation. Upon leaving the station, Hoggon discovered that Vima Sunrider had stowed away on his ship.
He ended up transporting her to Rhen Var, so that she could seek out Ulic. Suddenly realizing that he had two Jedi on his ship and
didn’t even know it, Hoggon resolved to locate Nomi Sunrider and tell her that Vima was with Ulic on Rhen Var. However, Nomi was not
happy with his news, and spurned his offer of passage to Rhen Var. When Sylvar arrived at Exis Station looking for Nomi, Hoggon
agreed to take her to Rhen Var, glad to have met a fourth Jedi Knight. When Sylvar was unable to defeat Ulic, Hoggon stole up behind
them and shot Ulic in the back with his blaster. Hoggon believed that he would be venerated by the Jedi for killing Ulic, and was
surprised when Sylvar nearly killed him. (TOJR)
Hohass Ekwesh
this Thakwaash was one of the first members of Wraith Squadron. Like most Takwaash, he was covered in short, brown fur, and had a
cascade of chestnut-brown hair falling from his head. Although he stood just under two meters in height, he was known as "Runt" to the
rest of his team, because he was the smallest of the children in his family. His size allowed him to pilot a starfighter, and he joined the
New Republic to fly. However, the Thakwaash characteristic multiple minds became his undoing, as the pilot mind would weave in and
out of command and leave him bewildered in several situations. He was chosen for duty with the Wraiths because the pilot mind was
quite intelligent and was a good pilot. Runt also served as the squadron's physical trainer. (WS)

Hollowtown
the huge, central biosphere located in Centerpoint Station, it was a beautiful area of gardens, parks, and living spaces. It was lit by the
Glowpoint, and provided nearly all the foodstuffs needed to keep the inhabitants fed. However, when the station began generating
strange pulses timed with the destruction of stars listed on the Starbuster plot, the Glowpoint incinerated everything in Hollowtown until
the oxygen ran out. When Luke Skywalker and Lando Calrissian first see it, the toxic residues of the destruction make Hollowtown
unlivable. Lando later finds that Hollowtown and the Glowpoint were components of the huge power supply needed to keep the
hyperspatial tractor beam operational. The Glowpoint acted as a pilot light, which Hollowtown was a battery of sorts. (SC)

HoloNet
Once the main vehicle for spreading news instantaneously thoroughout the galaxy, the Holonet used subspace relays to transmit
three-dimensional images to various holonet receivers. This media distribution system allowed the Old Republic to have instant access
to any inhabited location in the galaxy. It was created from hundreds of thousands of non-mass transceivers connected through an
incredible matrix of coordinated SimuTunnels. Each endpoint was equippde with a huge computer system that decoded and sorted the
transmitted information. Unfortunately, the HoloNet was incredibly expensive to maintain and operate. Thus, its use was usually
restricted to purely governmental transmissions. After Palpatine assumed control of the galaxy, he limited the holonet to specific
Imperial uses, in order to control the flow of information through the galaxy. (RPG, ISB)

this Ugor ideal is considered the holiest of all space debris. Sometimes called the Prime Mover, the Ugors believed that the Holy of
Holies would someday be recovered from the scene of a massive space battle. It could be activated by the Ugors, and would allow
them to move massive amounts of garbage to their home system, making them the premier salvage service provider in the galaxy. The
Ugors believed they had found the Holy of Holies shortly after the Battle of Yavin., when they discovered a gravity-well projector at the
site of an Imperial victory. The Alliance tried to take the device, during their search for the Elusive. (SH)
Homd-Resa
this was one of the few aggressive clans of Senali, and they patrolled their ocean territory with martial persistence. The Homd-Resa
clan once attacked the Nali-Erun clan, destroying the Nali-Erun dwellings in an effort to assert their claim to the seas. (SP)
Home
this heavily-modified Tsukkian water freighter was owned and operated by Lens and Milla Reekeene, founders of the Reekeene's
Roughnecks gang. The ship served as the base of operations for the Roughnecks, providing living quarters for its members and
docking space for the group's X-Wing starfighters. The ship moved often throughout Fakir Sector and the Bakchou arm of the galaxy,
avoiding Imperial entanglements while continually harrassing Imperial convoys. (SWCP)

Home One
Ackbar's original Mon Calamari Star Cruiser, which served as the command ship for the Alliance during the Battle of Endor. At that time,
it was the largest ship in the Alliance’s fleet. As newer and better Mon Calamari starships were designed, Ackbar eventually retired
Home One in favor of the Defiance and the Galactic Voyager. (ROTJ, XWN, WG)

seems to dissolve into a greenish mist, leaving behind a ghastly skeleton. (GG8)
Homthor Deck
one of two credicruise decks on the Kuari Princess, it is located immediately below the Lido Deck. Most of the starcruiser's staterooms
are located on this deck and its partner, the Wellad Deck. (RM)
Homunculus-wasp
this small, poisonous insect was native to the planet Af'El. Assassins sometimes used these small creatures to kill their targets, since
the wasp was very tiny. These creatures were called kheilwar by the Defel. There was only a short period of time in which the
homunculus-wasp could be employed this way, for they grew at an astonishing rate. In just a week, the tiny insect could amass more
than twenty kilograms of body weight and grow to a height of 1.5 meters or more. They were armed with razor-sharp fins and large
wings that absorbed and warped visible light, giving it the ability to seemingly disappear. Perhaps their most unusual ability, though,
was the ability to transform its body into a simulacrum of anyone it had met. This allowed the creature to further blend into a crowd, and
infiltrate a location if its initial attempt to kill a being failed. The homunculus-wasp was primarily a nocturnal feeder, since its sensory
organs were badly damaged when exposed to normal sunlight. (SWJ14)
Hondo Bador
this chubby Sullustan ran a starship repair and outfitting business on Ord Mantell during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (SL)

Honoghr
this once-lush paradise of a planet is the homeworld of the Noghri, and was virtually unknown until it was nearly devastated following a
starship battle in its orbit. The Emperor, upon discovering the Noghri, conceived of a plot to enslave Noghri, with the help of Darth
Vader. The huge space battle took place above the planet, and one of the ships was destroyed. It plummeted to the planet's surface,
setting off earthquakes and releasing toxic chemicals into the atmosphere. When Vader arrived to offer aid, the Noghri readily
accepted, and made Vader their Lord and Savior. However, Palpatine had arranged that the decon droids sent to the planet would
continue to poison it by planting modified kholm grass. This modified grass would choke out all other vegetation, while making it appear
that the planet could still support life. When Princess Leia and Chewbacca discovered the plot following the downfall of the Empire, they
quickly worked with the Noghri to remedy the situation. After the deception of Darth Vader and the Emperor was made apparent to the
Noghri, they quickly joined the New Republic. However, all efforts to restore the planet’s broken ecosystem turned out to be futile, as
the once-green world was incapable of recovering. The Noghri eventually relocated to the planet Wayland, leaving Honoghr for dead.
It is the fourth planet in the Honoghr system and has three natural satellites. The system is located near Kessel and Fwillsving. Honoghr
has a rotation of 23 hours, and its orbit lasts about 352 local days. (DFR, DFRSB, SOP)

Hoopster’s Prank
this freighter belonged to Booster Terrik, and was often sent out to assist in the shipment of pommwomm plants. It was boarded by
Rogue Squadron on the assumption that it was carrying contraband, but was found to be clean. The Sif'krie race then banned
smugglers from carrying their pommwomm plants. (SOP, VOF)
Hootbat
an avian creature native to Clak'Dor VII, the hootbat is named for its unusual hooting song. (TCC)
Hoover
an short, four-legged, elephantine alien race with a long snout and large eyes. Their long snouts are as long as their short bodies.
Despite their lowly appearance, Hoovers are highly technical, and their small size allows them to perform delicate tasks with complex
equipment. A member of this species was known to inhabit Jabba's court. Their origins are not known. (ROTJ, CCG7)

Hope
this Mon Calamari cruiser was part of the New Republic's early fleet. Commanded by Captain Arboga, it was the first ship to recover the
message carried in the cargo of the Messenger as it fled from Coruscant. (TFE)
Hopetown
this settlement was formed on the planet Ennth. When the planet’s moon orbited close to Ennth during its eight-year cycle, the seismic
and tidal activity it spawned destroyed Hopetown. The colonists returned to Ennth after the devastation, and rebuilt it. They also
renamed it New Hopetown. (SHA)

Hopskip
this modified YT-1300 freighter was owned by Haber Trell and Maranne Darmic. They used to smuggler weapons to the rebel
underground on Derra IV. The ship looked as if it had been split down the middle, then the two halves patched together one on top of
st
the other. It was destroyed by the 181 Imperial Fighter Group when the Empire ambushed the Alliance's supply convoy at Derra IV,
shortly before the Battle of Hoth. (TFE, MBF)
Horak-mul
this one-eyed Sith warrior was loyal to Naga Sadow, although he was unsure of the Lord’s true motivations. Horak-mul sided with Ludo
Kressh following the death of Marka Ragnos. After Kressh discovered that Sadow had tricked the Sith into believing an Old Republic
war force was coming, Horak-mul and Dor Gal-ram followed Kresh to Rhelg to plan an attack on Sadow. They led the Sith fleet to Khar
Delba, and were extremely confident when the fortress put up little resistance. Horak-mul , however, was unaware of the deception of
Naga Sadow, who was hiding on Khar Shian. He was also unaware that many of Sadow’s spies were onboard his ship. When Sadow
gave the command, the spies attacked Horak-mul and killed him just before Sadow defeated Ludo Kressh. (GAS)
Horansi
1) a particularly ruthless card game popular among the Alliance's starfighter pilots (XW)
2) an alien race which has four tribes - the Kasa, Gorvan, Mashi, and Treka Horansi. The Horansi are a sentient, feline race native to
the planet Mutanda. Their primitive, tribal society was equally welcoming to the Empire or the Republics. They recognized the
importance of the prothium mines in their system and played upon it, selling themselves out as hunting guides for the miners and
soldiers stationed there. The average Horansi was bipedal, although they could run on all fours when the terrain dictated it. Their night
vision is especially acute, allowing them to track prey in low-light conditions. (PG1, SWAJ)
Horch
also known as Horch of Kheedar, this two-bit crimelord ruled the criminal elements of the planet Kheedar until the planet was invaded
by Imperial forces. His lackeys panicked and fled, leaving his fortress undefended. Horch was faced with imminent death at the hands
of the Imperials, until Noval Garaint took control of his fortress. Rather than death, Horch chose to become a slave to Garaint, who
usurped control of Horch's empire. Horch kept himself blissfully unaware of his predicament by sotting himself with spice liquor. (GG9)
Hord

Hordon Cal
this hot ball of rock was the innermost planet of the Thanta Zilbra System. It was orbited by a single moon, but both were destroyed
when the Sacorrian Triad destroyed the system as part of the Starbuster Plot. (CTD)
Horizon-Hopper
classified as a “light” hyperdrive, this Incom system was designed to be a backup system to a starship’s normal hyperdrive. The
Horizon-Hopper was one-third as powerful as a stock hyperdrive. Note that Tales from the New Republic claims the Horizon-Hopper is
an old, outdated hyperdrive manufactured by SoroSuub. (GG6, TFNR)

Horliss-Horliss
this deity was known for giving organic beings the use of metastyle. When it discovered that Tilotny had "thrown a shape" and created a
physical manifestation of herself, Horliss-Horliss did the same. It bacame a subtle, billowing mist. Horliss-Horliss had the power to
create null inversions, as well as the ability to turn organic matter into solid material. He proves himself equal to Tilonty in this ability by
solidifying Leia Organa's internal organs, leaving Splendid Ap to return her to normal. (CSWDW)
Horn, Corran
this Corellian was a Captain at one time in Wedge Antilles' Rogue Squadron. Corran was a member of the Corellian Security Force
before trying out for Rogue Squadron. He joined the training academy as his father, Hal, had before him, and excelled in the training at
a level above his father's. He worked with Iella Wessiri under Gil Bastra, and fell in with Bastra's anti-Imperial philosophy. During an
undercover mission with his father, Corran's mother was fatally injured in an accident with a drunk driver. They rushed to the hospital,
where she died after seeing them one last time. With the appointment of Kirtan Loor as his superior, and with Hal's death at the hands
of the Trandoshan bounty hunter Bossk, Corran knew that his future on Corellia was limited. Corran and Bastra created false smuggler
ids for each other, the Wessiri's, and two other Alliance supporters, and then staged a scenario in which Corran killed them in cold
blood. Corran claimed that he was only following the orders of Kirtan Loor, but Loor felt that Corran was trying to upstage him. When
Corran defected to the Alliance, Loor put out an Imperial deathmark on Corran's head. Corran's father didn't approve of his defection,
considering him an outlaw for joining. However, Hal Horn was much happier that his son hadn't become an Imperial. During one of his
training simulations, Corran tried to change the basic set of maneuvers for the Requiem scenario, slowing to a near-stop to trying and
draw the TIE Fighters, and TIE Bombers to him and away from the Redemption. He succeeded, making nine kills and surviving Antilles
himself, who was piloting a TIE Fighter. Corran later became one of Antilles' best pilots, taking on the hardest missions and surviving
them. Corran kept his grandfather's JedCred on a chain around his neck, rubbing it for luck during these missions. He was instrumental
in the liberation of Borleias from the Empire, and went undercover to assist the New Republic in gaining information on Coruscant.
However, while on the Coruscant mission, Corran's Z-95 Headhunter was brought down by remote control - presumably by Tycho
Celchu - and crashed in the Invisible Sector of Coruscant's Imperial City. He was captured and brought to Ysanne Isard at Lusankya for
interrogation. He proved to be incorrigible, and Isard consigned him to the rock mines. There, he met the prisoner Jan and devised an
escape plan. Corran discovered that the gravity at Lusankya was reversed to keep the prisoners disoriented, and escaped to discover
that Lusankya was buried beneath Imperial City. After spending six weeks in the Lusankya facility, he arrived at Tycho's trial and proved
Tycho innocent. He also relayed information on a hidden Jedi museum buried near Lusankya to Luke Skywalker, who found the
museum in a hidden section of the Galactic Museum. Luke offered Corran the chance to become a Jedi Knight, but Corran refused. He
opted to continue to serve with Rogue Squadron. It was at about this time that Corran became romantically involved with Mirax Terrik, a
situation whose irony was not lost on either of them. Corran's father, Hal, had been the one to send Booster Terrik to Kessel for
smuggling. Mirax, though, held none of her father's enmity, and wasted no time in agreeing to marry Corran. After the Battle of Thyferra,
they were married by Wedge Antilles aboard the Lusankya, in order to avoid any interference from Booster. A more elaborate ceremony
was held on Coruscant upon their return. Corran remained with Rogue Squadron, and spent time battling Grand Admiral Thrawn and
the reborn Emperor Palpatine's forces at Coruscant - the home he and Mirax build was one of the first victims of the falling Star
Destroyer Liberator. When the battle to eliminate the Invid pirates led Mirax into danger, Corran joined Luke Skywalker's Jedi praxeum
on Yavin 4 and began to learn more about the Force. A rival of Gantoris, Corran was a slow but steady learner. However, after the
defeat of Exar Kun and following a visit with his grandfather on Corellia, Corran realized that he didn't need to become a Jedi to find
Mirax. He infiltrated the Khuiumin Survivors and joined the Invids, attracting the attention of Leonia Tavira. In order to scatter the Invids,
he started portraying an "avenging Jedi" on Courkrus, killing Shala the Hutt before getting most of the Invids to flee. When he came
under the attack of Tavira's Jensaarai warriors, though, he was rescued by Luke Skywalker and took off to rescue Mirax on Suarbi 7/5.
They succeeded in rescuing here, then Corran used his ability with the Force to lead Tavira to believe she was under attack by the New
Republic and the destroyed Sun Crusher. Tavira fled, and things slowly returned to normal. Corran opted not to return to Yavin 4, a
decision which Luke agreed to wholeheartedly. Luke did allow Corran one parting gesture, though: Corran destroyed Exar Kun's statue
and temple on Yavin 4 with a volley of proton torpedoes, forever eliminating the focal point of Sith energy on the moon. After he
resigned his commission with the New Republic and Rogue Squadron, Corran returned to Yavin 4 to complete his Jedi training. By the
time of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, Corran was a full Jedi Knight. Like his grandfather, Corran found that he had no ability to move
objects through the Force, something that many considered a basic skill of a Jedi. He was one of the Jedi who felt Luke was doing his
best to bring new Knights along slowly, although he often found himself in the minority. Corran was teamed up with Ganner Rhysode
during the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, and the pair struggled to agree on virtually everything. They eventually
discovered a grudging respect for each other. When Corran and Ganner attempted to rescue the slaves they found on Bimmiel, Corran
was mortally wounded by a Yuuzhan Vong amphistaff. Ganner returned to recover Corran's body, quickly dunking him in bacta and
drawing the poison out so that Corran survived. In the wake of the battle, Corran learned that the planet Garqi had been invaded, and
that he had been called up to serve as a Colonel in their militia. This mission allowed him to scout out the Yuuzhan Vong actions on the
planet, as well as forming a resistance group and planning for the evacuation of civilians if necessary. He was allowed to take a group
of six Noghri with him, and they discovered that the pollen of the bafforr tree was deadly to vonduun crab armor. However, before the
New Republic could take advantage of this, the Yuuzhan Vong attacked Ithor. The Yuuzhan Vong commander, Shedao Shai, also
murdered Elegos A'Kla, and sent his bones back to Corran as a threat. Corran and the rest of the Jedi were allowed to defend the
planet from ground assault, and Corran eventually confronted Shedao Shai. They agreed to a duel: Corran fighting for Ithor and Shedao
Shai for the remains of Mongei Shai. Corran barely managed to defeat the Yuuzhan Vong commander, but that defeat left Deign Lian in
command of the alien fleet. Lian fired on Ithor with a bacteria-riddled bioweapon which destroyed all life on Ithor's surface. Then, the
Legacy of Torment was destroyed, and it crashed into Ithor's surface. As the ship exploded and flames engulfed Ithor's surface, Corran
was labeled in the news media as "the man who killed Ithor." For his own part, Corran felt himself slipping dangerously close to the
Dark Side of the Force, having wanted to kill Shedao Shai in revenge for Elegos A'Kla's death, rather than to protect Ithor. He resigned
his position with the Jedi Knights in order to meditate on his actions and try to return to an equilibrium. (XWN, WG, KT, BW, IJ, IR,
DTO, DTR)
Horn, Hal
Corran Horn's father, Hal's given name was Valin Halcyon. After his father, Nejaa Halcyon, was killed in the Clone Wars, Rostek Horn
married Nejaa's widow and erased all information on the Halcyon family. He hoped this would hide his new family from Emperor
Palpatine, and the name Hal was used to honor to Nejaa Halcyon. Hal was ten years old when Nejaa died. He was an excellent
graduate of the Corellian Security Force Academy, and attended the Academy twenty years before his son. Hal Horn was the
investigating officer who looked into Soontir Fel's disruption of Ilir Post's assault on Pamr, and was given the assignment to investigate
the explosion on Gus Treta that killed Wedge Antilles' parents. Hal kept a watchful eye on Wedge, but declared him a hopeless fool
when Wedge started running weapons for the Alliance. Hal later married a Corellian woman, and they had a son together, whom they
named Corran. Corran grew up to follow in Hal's footsteps, also becoming a CorSec agent. As a team, they were quite effective. On
one undercover mission, they learned that Hal's wife had been fatally injured by a drunk driver. They rushed to the hospital to see her,
and she died shortly afterward. Several years later, Hal was killed on a mission with Corran, during which they flew separate ships to
intercept a smuggling ship, and they met little resistance. However, the smuggler was also the target of the bounty hunter Bossk.
Corran had become relaxed, and wasn't checking other sensors because the smuggler was in their sights. Bossk, under a valid Imperial
warrant, was trying to target the smuggler, but strafed Hal Horn's ship with enough laser fire to disintegrate it. Bossk was released by
Kirtan Loor, who cited the inherent lack of dexterity in Trandoshans as the reason Bossk's lasers caught Horn instead of the smuggler.
Corran held himself responsible for the death of his father for many years. Hal's father was friends with a Jedi Knight from Corellia.
They worked together for years before the Jedi became a Master. The Master presented Hal's father with a JedCred before he was
killed in the Clone Wars. The medallion was given to Hal, who later passed it on to Corran. (XWN, WG, KT, BW, IJ, MBF)

this was the name of the first daughter born to Corran Horn and Mirax Terrik. (DTO)
Horn, Nyche
this Corellian woman married Hal Horn, and was Corran Horn's mother. (TFNR)
Horn, Rostek
Corran Horn's adopted grandfather, Rostek was also a member of the Corellian Security Force and a contemporary of Fliry Vorru. He
was good friend's with Corran's real grandfather, Nejaa Halcyon, and took care of his family after Halcyon's death. Rostek used his
position within CorSec to eliminate all traces of the Halcyon family, hoping to hide Nejaa's widow and young son from Palpatine's Jedi
purge. Rostek eventually married Nejaa's widow, and cared for her son Valin, whom they renamed Hal in honor of Nejaa Halcyon.
Rostek lived to a ripe old age, but was held on Corellia by the will of the Diktat, even after the Battle of Endor. In his spare time, Rostek
was known in several circles as the producer of some of Corellia's most beautiful flowers, hybrids he created in his private greenhouse.
When the Diktat modified the Corellian Security Force into the Public Safety Service, he burned down Rostek's house - as well as Hal
Horn's - hoping to eliminate the files Rostek had kept on public officials and other influential people. Rostek, however, had maintained
several copies, and they began showing up in the mail of these officials, marked with one of the beautiful hybrid blossoms. In return for
his continued silence, Rostek was awarded a grand new residence on the site of his old one. The PSS maintained watches on Rostek,
and even tried to infiltrate his staff. Much had been made about Rostek's use of blossoms when sending his messages, and leaders
debated the relative meanings of a live flower versus and cut specimen. In reality, Rostek had been using the redundant genes in the
flowers' DNA to encode information about the Halcyon heritage, in hopes that Corran or Hal would return and claim it. (KT, TFE, BW, IJ)
Horn, Valin
this was the name given to the first son of Corran Horn and Mirax Terrik. Valin was born about four years after the death of Grand
Admiral Thrawn. He was named for his grandfather, Valin Halcyon. Like his father, Valin was Force-sensitive, and eventually attended
the Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4 for training. By the time he was eleven, Valin found that he had an affinity with animals, and could use the
Force to commune with this. However, like his father and grandfather, Valin had almost no skills in telekinesis. (SOP, DTO)

Horvat
this gruff Rodian served as one of Guldus Bemm’s henchmen, and was one of his majordomos within the Canyon Mining Facility
heirarchy. When Bemm contacted Luke Skywalker with a false story about strange crystals found in several caverns, the pirates hoped
to capture Skywalker and turn him over to Advisor Bregius Golthan, thereby ensuring the colony’s survival. Horvat led a group of New
Republic operatives to the site for further investigation. What they discovered was a double-cross, and the cavern was actually filled
with Imperial AT-STs. (SWJ8)

this moon orbited the planet Kalarba. It was industrialized by the Old Republic, when an Esseles-class space station was buily around
it. (DRO, EGV)
Hosk Station
an Alderaan Royal Engineers Esseles-class space station located in orbit around Kalarba, it was built across the surface of Kalarba's
largest moon, Hosk. The station was originally designed to be an Old Republic supply and maintenance post, a role which it served for
thousands of years. The expansion of the galaxy brought more and more colonists to the surrounding systems, and suddenly Hosk
Station was no longer as important as it used to be. The station was sold to civilian interests on the planet Kalarba. The station was
nearly destroyed by Olag Greck when a droid barge delivered C-3PO, R2-D2, and IG-88 to the station. C-3PO and R2-D2 had been put
up for auction by their previous owner, Master Wena, and were being shipped to Hosk for assignment. IG-88 escaped, and C-3PO and
R2-D2 were jettisoned to the planet Kalarba, where they were acquired by the Pitareeze family. C-3PO and R2-D2 returned to the
station with Nak and his grandfather, and were left to join a group of renegade droids who were ready to rebel against Olag Greck's war
droids and their control over them. Under the careful command of Unit Zed, the droids were able to defeat Greck's various war droids
and foil Greck's attempt to steal a load of ash ore. In the process, they also were able to reroute an explosion rigged by Greck to blow
up the stations' power core. Many years later, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy Hosk Station was destroyed shortly after
the Battle of Fondor, as the Vong attempted to eliminate all non-organic technologies. (DRO, EGV, BP)

2) this giant herbivore was native to the planet Essowyn, and provided a source of food for the Saurton race. The average hoska stood
three meters tall at the shoulder, and had two large horns protruding from the corners of its mouth. Great herds of hoska roamed the
plains of the planet. (PG1)

Hoth
this snow planet is the sixth planet in the Hoth system, located in the Ison Corridor. It orbits a distant, blue-white star, and has three
natural satellites. Just outside the orbit of Hoth is a huge asteroid belt, which is believed to be the result of the collision of two planets
eons ago. Its remote location made it the perfect site for an Alliance base three years after the Battle of Yavin. It orbits its star inside a
treacherous belt of asteroids, making any approach to the planet very hazardous. Many smaller asteroids get pulled in by Hoth's
gravity, and rain down on the planet as meteors. The planet's normal daytime temperature was some thirty-degrees below zero, and its
high-velocity wind and snow storms make it extremely inhospitable. Hoth has a fair amount of seismic activity, which is constantly
changing the various ice formations and creating vast, natural ice caves and tunnels. It is for these reasons that Alliance Major Kem
Monnon chose it for Echo Base. Its harsh, frozen climate has given rise to only two major lifeforms, the Wampa ice creature and the
tauntaun. Small rodents, wirelike ice worms, and hardy lichens complete a minimal foodchain. (ESB, ISU, GG2)
Hoth Hog
this compact creature was a boar-like snow creature that lived on the planet Hoth. (RA)
Hotshot
this was a nickname given by the Corellian Security Force to any blaster which had the trigger guard removed. Among the criminal
elements, the removal of the trigger guard was supposed to represent how tough an individual was. More often than not, however, a
hotshot was accidentally discharged when it was carried in a waistband or arm holster. (TFE)
Houjix
this ferocious-looking beast is native to the planet Kinyen, but it is really a gentle, loyal beast that is oftem domesticated by the Gran.
The houjix is a blue- and yellow-striped quadriped with large teeth, a spiked, club-like tail, and two feet on each of the front two legs.
Chewbacca had a holographic representation of a houjix on his holochess board on the Millennium Falcon. (CCG2)
Houk
an extremely large, humanoid race originally from the Ansuroer Sector, the Houk have spread throughout the galaxy following thei
contact with a Vaathkree trading ship. Their skin is colored deep blue or purple, and their eyes are apiercing yellow. They are second in
the galaxy in brute strength only to the Wookiee race, but they do not display the violent rage of the Wookiee. However, they have short
tempers none the less, and prefer fighting over any other solution to a problem. The Houk generally use any method possible to gain an
advantage over their opponents, including sneaking up on them and attacking from behind. Thus, many other races consider them
cowards. The Houk which settled on the planet Sriluur were often at war with their neighbors, the Weequay, until the Empire stepped in
and subjugated both races. The Empire used the Houk as a basis for creating the "perfect slave," but it is unknown if their program was
successful. The Houk race has produced few technological advancements, but has adapted well to the use of hyperdrives and modern
weapons. (HSL, GG12, SWAJ, CRO)
Houk-Weequay Conflicts
a series of brutal wars between the two native races on Sriluur. (SWAJ)
Houlilan
this alien - an Ithorian? - was a member of the Alien Combine on Coruscant. (WG)
Hound's Tooth
Bossk's modified YV-666 starship, it was purchased by the bounty hunter after his previous ship was destroyed on Gandolo IV. Bossk
had it highly modified from its origins as a light freighter, including shields and weapons upgrades. Many of these modifications were
done by Kuat Drive Yards, which installed a fail-safe code into the computer systems. Much of the ship was rebuilt to accomodate the
Trandoshan physiology, and Bossk had a specialized set of controls added to allow him to simply rest his arms in a pair of troughs and
control the ship via movements of his body. The Hound’s Tooth was also one of the few ships that was capable of changing course
while in hyperspace. Bossk also added an X10-D droid brain to control shipboard systems. This brain responds to verbal commands,
which allows Bossk to have access to ship's systems from anywhere on the ship. Note that while the Star Wars: Customizable Card
Game: Dagobah says that X10-D is the computer system, Tales of the Bounty Hunters indicates that X10-D was a huge service droid
used by Bossk to move cargo. The droid X10-D had no built-in computer, but took commands from the Hound’s Tooth. Bossk also
keeps the Nashtah Pup hidden in one of the holds for emergency use. The Hound was a tempermental ship, as the main computer
worked to control every on-board system while reacting to Bossk’s verbal commands. When Bossk allowed Chenlambec and Tinian
I’att to pilot the ship, they introduced the ship’s computer to Flirt. Flirt eventually insinuated herself into the computer core, and showed
it that Bossk was willing to sacrifice the ship in order to keep Chen’s pelt intact. The computer rebelled, locking out Bossk from making
any verbal commands while keeping the Trandoshan locked in a freezer-locker. After delivering Bossk to Imperial Governor Io
Desnand, Chen and Tinian took control of the Hound for themselves. The Trandoshan eventually recovered his ship, and used it on
many hunts until he became entangled with Boba Fett, during the other hunter’s search fo Kuat of Kuat. When Bossk tried to steal the
Slave I, drifting above Tatooine after Fett was consumed by the Sarlacc, he was shocked to discover that Fett was still alive. He had
loaded the computer system of a mock-up of Slave I to send out a false self-destruct alarm if someone boarded the ship, and Bossk fell
for the bait. He fled the scene in an escape pod, and Boba Fett took control of the Hound’s Tooth. He then traveled to the remains of
Kud’ar Mub’at’s web to find answers, but was fired upon by Balancesheet. The ship was nearly destroyed, but was repaired and used
by Dengar and Neelah to draw off Kodir of Kuhlvult’s forces. It was eventually captured by the Kuati nobles in the Oranessan System,
who used the fail-safe code to shut her down, and and left to drift. Fett and Dengar managed to restart it and return to Kuat, where they
finally put all the pieces of the puzzle together. (MTS, EGV, CCG4, TBH, MA, SLS, HM)
Hound-W2
this is Industrial Automaton's SPD-series droid. It is a box-like machine that rolls on treads. Rectractable arms allow it to extend sensors
that pick up the trail of many kinds of security breaches. (TTSB)
House Barnaba
this was one of the four lesser Houses of Tapani Sector, known for is hedonistic approach to life. Families within House Barnaba never
really wanted to become dominant, and developed great skill at playing one House against another, while ensuring that Barnaba came
out ahead in the end. During the height of the New Order, House Barnaba found itself aligned with House Melantha, and working closer
with House Cadriaan. (PGT)
House Benelex
this was the governing body of the Benelex Bounty Hunters Guild. It was led by Corvastan Benelex. (GG10)
House Cadriaan
one of the three greater Houses of Tapani Sector, House Cadriaan was known for its openmindedness and its skills in the mercantile
trades. Its capital was on Procopia, and only during the height of the New Order did this House begin to assert its power. Members of
House Cadriaan held themselves to a higher standard than most other Houses, resorting to spying and underhanded tactics only when
absolutely necessary to preserve the House. The House's provinces lie along the Shapani Bypass, and the internal military of House
Cadriaan was quickly augmented to preserve its hold on the sector's greatest properties. (PGT)
House Calipsa
this was one of the lesser Houses of Tapani Sector, and was considered to be the most conservative of the seven Houses. Calipsa
chose to ally itself with the dominant House of the time, using this position to avoid negotiation. Members of House Calipsa were known
for their short tempers and lack of patience. Despite its shortcomings, House Calipsa maintained the second-largest number of holdings
in Tapani Sector, second only to House Mecetti. (PGT)
House Guard
this was the private security force which protected the various nobles of Tapani Sector during the height of the New Order. The House
Guard was formed because the Empire couldn't patrol the entire sector and maintain the security of individual Houses. Each House had
its own Guard, and the Home Guards were the only military group allowed to travel outside a House's provincial holdings. (PGT)
House Mecetti
this was one of the greater Houses of Tapani Sector, and dominated the Great Council during the modern era of the galaxy. Nothing
mattered more to the nobles of House Mecetti than acquiring and keeping power, and the end always justified the means. Often, this
mentality forced House Mecetti to act against the better good of Tapani Sector, but that mattered little in the grander scheme. Its
reputation among the Houses is that of ruthlessness and vindictive reprisal, and it continued to gain power in Tapani Sector by setting
the other Houses against each other and cleaning up later. House Mecetti was most infamously known for its support and alliance with
the Mecrosa Order, many millennia before the Battle of Yavin. Mecetti controlled fourteen different star systems in Tapani Sector, giving
it the largest number of holdings of all the seven Houses. (PGT)
House Melantha
this was one of the original twelve ruling Houses of Tapani Sector, and was one of the Sector's greater Houses. It was most famous
because it produced Shey Tapani, and his descendants believed that they were the rightful rulers of the sector. House Melantha
maintained a great number of contacts on the planet Coruscant, buth during the Old Republic and the New Order, giving it the political
clout it needed to rise to power. Members of this House were considered to be arrogant and obnoxious by their peers in other Houses.
Despite its powerful standing, House Melantha has rarely been the dominant House in the Great Council, always sitting behind House
Pelagia or House Mecetti. Melantha tried to gain power during the fall of the Old Republic, openly supporting Emperor Palpatine and
providing its members to the Emperor's court. There were rumors that an Imperial Dark Side Adept was the real power behind House
Melantha during the New Order, but these rumors were never proven. (PGT)
House Neuvalis
this was the governing body of the Neuvalis Bounty Hunters Guild, and was controlled by Marjan and Feras Neuvalis. It was
headquartered on Plexis. (GG10)
House of Balance

House of Vanar
this was the fashion design studio based on Coruscant and created by Vanar, during the early years of the New Republic. Leia Organa-
Solo asked them to submit a design for Mara Jade’s wedding dress, and Vanar’s team came up with avery revealing design. Mara
discarded their idea, despite Vanar’s claims that “minimal was maximal” in galactic fashion of the time. (U)
House of War
located in the city of Fitsay, this structure was the home of the warrior priests of the Sedrian race. (BGS)
House Paramexor
this was the governing body of the Paramexor Guild of Hunters. It was led by Janq Paramexor, who insisted that his members only hunt
accused murderers. The Guild's headquarters were on Denevar. (GG10)
House Pelagia
this was one of the lesser ruling Houses of Tapani Sector, despite the fact that it traced it roots to the original colonists who settled on
Pelagon more than 13,000 years ago. Pelagia was best known for being recruited by the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic, eventually
establishing a bloodline which was strong with the Force. Members of House Pelagia held honor and dignity in a higher regard than
most other Houses, a position which led them to turn to other methods of gaining power. House Pelagia was considered one of the
most adept at twisting the truth to their own ends, promising much less than they actually seem to. During the early years of Tapani
Sector's history, House Pelagia was the most powerful of all the seven Houses. Their ties to the Jedi Knights only furthered their
position in the Great Council. However, with the rise in power of Emperor Palpatine, many of the other Houses dropped their support of
Pelagia and turned to House Melantha or House Mecetti. House Pelagia's position floundered to the point that it was deemed a lesser
House, having lost more than seventy percent of its representation on the Great Council. The House survived, though, and began
taking steps to regains its former strength. (PGT)
House Reena
one of the four lesser Houses of Tapani Sector, House Reena remained strong because of its holdings. Many of the planets in its
province were rich in ores, and several others were the sites of prestigious universities. Members of House Reena were known to be
polite and extremely well-educated. (PGT)
House Renliss
this was the governing body of the Renliss Bounty Hunters Guild, which was led by Jalindas and Gratina Renliss. They maintained their
base of operations on the planet Dartessex IV. For personal reasons known only to the sisters, the Guild only accepted female
members. (GG10)

Corellian Engineering Corporation's medium freighter, the HT-2200 was 54.8 meters in length. It had a unique, double-hulled forward
cargo section which was mounted to a series of engines. It had a trimantium armored hull, which contributed to its low lift-to-mass ratio.
Overall the HT-2200 wasn't nearly as maneuverable as its cousins, and was considered to be "pirate bait" to many spacers and a
commercial failure to the businessbeings. Despite the perceptions, the HT-2200 was able to provide spacers with a variety of
environmental options within each cargo hold, and innovation for CEC. The HT-2200 required a pilot and co-pilot to operate, and could
transport up to eight passengers and 800 metric tons of cargo. It was armed with a pair of turret-mounted pulse laser cannons. (SS,

Huba
a former chef who worked for Olag Greck, Huba was in charge of preparing a feast for one of Greck's Hutt criminal partners. Greck tried
to poison the food, but didn't put enough in it. When the Hutt tried to execute Greck, he blamed the slightly-poisoned food on Huba and
his team of chefs. They were enslaved by the Hutt and put to work in crystal mines until they managed to escape some months later.
Huba and his chefs became pirates, in an attempt to raise enough money to repay Greck's treachery. Captain Huba was encountered
by C-3PO and R2-D2 during their adventures on Kalarba, just prior to the Galactic Civil War. He was a grey-skinned humanoid with a
thick neck and pointed ears. He attacked the Tharen Wayfarer to steal what he could, since Olag Greck's shipment's had stopped flying
through Kalarba's ports. He was fond of a good Stenness Pie. When C-3PO and R2-D2 beat Ripter in a vump-shugga race, Huba
refused to accept the Captain's medal, and so Muptupp voted the Captaincy to R2-D2. When the droids left, Huba recovered his rank.

Sector, with the human race being named the primary ruling race. (AC)
Humbaba
this bovine creature was native to several forested planets, including Corellia and Kashoon. It was often used in the expletive reference,
“knee-deep in humbaba manure.” The average specimen measured two meters in height at the shoulder, and was covered with dense
fur. Ancient Kashoonara legends speak of humbaba which measured “six Kahsoonara high” at the shoulder. These beasts were natural
burrowers, living in the softer swamplands at the edge of the forest. There are four known species of humbaba, distinguishable by their
unusual, prehensile noses. Despite their size and their burrowing nature, humbabas were extremely fast on their feet, making them
excellent mounts for the Kashoonara. During the liberation of Kashoon from the Empire, Alliance forces also rode humbabas into battle.
The Kashoonara revere the humbaba, and forbade the hunting of these creatures. (THG, COG)

governmental interference, making the collection of hard merchandise extremely profitable. Hunt saboteurs would lurk behind the
normal operations of a bounty hunter, waiting for the target to be captured before moving in. Once secured, the saboteur would move in
and take possession of the target and return it to a location specified by the entity that placed the bounty. If successful, the target would
be retrieved without the need to pay a high-priced bounty. The only payment would be to the sabotuer, who often commanded a much
lower fee. (SLS)
Huntbird
the armored explorer-cruiser loaned to Luke Skywalker and Cray Mingla by the Ithorians, so that they could search the Moonflower
Nebula. (COJ)
Hunter
1) this game was invented by the children of Emperor Palpatine’s aides. The games would last three or more days, as the children hid
from the Hunter and tried to avoid being captured. (TT)
2) a model of sporting blaster rifle. (GMS)
Hunter
this Victory-class Star Destroyer was part of the Imperial starship group assigned to monitor the Suprosa, during the time it was
supposed to be intercepted by the Alliance. (XWA)
Hunter of Winds
this elder Qom Qae Bargainer felt that the need to contact Luke Skywalker for help against the Threateners was too much of a risk,
since it involved one of their nesting attaching itself to a Threatener ship for the journey to the known galaxy. This got him into trouble
with Eater of Fire Creepers, who believed that the messages had been sent. When Luke finally arrived on Nirauan, Hunter of Winds
opposed his son's assistance of Luke and Mara Jade, in their struggle to reach the Hand of Thrawn. Child of Winds wanted to contact
the Qom Jha for help, but Hunter of Winds thought better of the idea. Child of Winds disobeyed his father and got Luke in contact with
Eater of Fire Creepers. When Child of Winds returned to his nesting to tell of the exploits of Luke and Mara, Hunter of Winds was forced
to see the error of his ways. When Luke and Mara finally escaped from the Hand of Thrawn compound, Hunter of Winds and several
Qom Qae were ready to transport them to their ships and get them back to Coruscant. (VOF)
Hunter Squadron
this New Republic ground assault unit was assigned to take out the Palpatine Counterinsurgency Faction on Coruscant, with the
support of Rogue Squadron. Their primary mission objectives were to deter attacks on bacta facilities under the control of Fliry Vorru, in
Invisec. The plans for the attack were leaked by Ysanne Isard to the Republic, in an effort to draw attention away from the escape of
the Lusankya from Imperial City. (KT)
Hunter V
BlasTech's civilian version of the Sharpshooter V blaster carbine weapon. (ISB)
Hunter-Killer Probot
a huge, starship-sized droid designed for pursuit and capture of selected targets, the H-K was built by Arakyd for use by the Empire.
The H-K is a highly intelligent pursuit and detainment vessel equipped with powerful sensors and hull scanners, and could be used as a
deep-space sweeper of a system patrol craft. They are about 150 meters tall, and have 4 heavy grasping arms, 4 fine work arms, a
single tractor beam projector, an internal secure chamber, two quad blaster cannons, and two ion cannons. Shug Ninx and Salla Zend
managed to gain control of one of these huge ships, and used its weapons to blasy open the prison compound where Han Solo and
Chewbacca were being held on Byss. (DE1, DESB)
Hunter’s Creed
this is the code by which all law-abiding bounty hunters live. Chief among the rules of the Creed is the stipulation that no Hunter could
kill another, nor interfere with another’s Hunt. Another primary rule was that any being under the apprenticeship of a master Hunter was
temporarily immune to incarceration. This is the reason that many small-time criminals become bounty hunters. (TBH)
Hunter's Luck
one of Mara Jade's smuggling ships. It was, at one time, a rich kid's yacht. It had been stolen by pirates and reworked when Mara
obtained it. (COJ)

Huntress
a Pakuuni Nebulon-B frigate used as a command base in their struggle against the Empire. (TIE)
HuntSuit
a model of personal, protective armor manufactured on Corellia, the HuntSuit found favor with bounty hunters of all walks. It was based
on th design of the PowerSuit. (GG10)
Hunu
an Alliance Nebulon-B frigate destroyed during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE)
Huoba Neva
a female Sullustan, Huoba Neva had two strikes against her when she joined the Imperial Academy. As the daughter of a SoroSuub
executive, she easily gained acceptance and quickly distinguished herself. She rose quickly, but never seemed to be able to obtain a
command of her own, in the Imperial Navy. Eventually, the pro-Human Imperial doctrine started to sink in, and Huoba started thinking
about joined the Alliance. Sian Tevv had told Ackbar about her outstanding accomplishments, and Ackbar needed good starship
commanders, so she was accepted into the Alliance. She became the youngest Republic warship commander following the victory in
the Illoud System, and she was given command of the Rebel Star. Huoba Neva perished when the ship collided with the burned-out hull
of a Star Destroyer as it emerged from hyperspace near Coruscant. The Rebel Star was part of the small New Republic fleet sent to
rescue the crew of the Liberator, and the Alliance mourned her passing. (DE1, DESB)
Huorne
a member of COMPNOR Investigations, Huorne worked with Parl to obtain information on Admiral Ackbar, but never seemed to be able
to get the crucial piece of information. (ISB)
Hurcha
eighth planet in the Churba system, it is too cold to support life. (DFR)
Hurd’s Moon
Guri tried to hide out on this inhabited world, after escaping the destruction of Prince Xizor’s skyhook over Coruscant. An outpost was
created in the arid world, mainly for smugglers and their sort. (SEE)
Hurdiss
this Imperial Navy communications officer served as the tactical communications chief during the Battle of Hoth. He also coordinated
the chase of the Millennium Falcon. (CCG4)
Hurlothrumb, Lorenz
this Imperial scientist and researcher workedint the Imperial Medi-Center’s Encephalo-Research Division. Moff Bandor promised him
the ability to test his “wave machine” on live sentients, and Hurlothrumb agreed to work for him. The resulting device was known as the
Hurlothrumbic Generator, and was put to use by Bandor on Questal. (GCQ)
Hurlothrombic Gas
Emperor Palpatine routinely flooded his audience chamber with small amounts of this gas, ensuring that his visitors were in awe and
fear of him. (POT)
Hurlothrumbic Generator
a device which produces energy waves that cause the human brain to react with varying levels of fear, depending on the strength of the
waves. It was designed and developed by Doctor Lorenz Hurlorthrumb, some time after the Battle of Yavin. Moff Bandor helped finance
the development, and experimented with the use of the device during the Galactic Civil War on the planet Questal. Bandor modified the
generator, adding specific “doomsday programming” to set off ever-increasingly intense waves of fear. Once activated, the generator
will eventually develop such powerful waves that it would drive every inhabitant of the planet Questal mad with fear. He was
apprehended by a squad of Alliance agents before he could put it to wide-scale use. (GCQ)
Hurn Jak
this Th'iruckai teruk was a rival of Oolan Krim, and had planted several spies in Krim's clan. When Jak discovered that Krim was
negotiating with a group of offworld scouts for weapons, Jak arranged for them to be posioned with yurfloo in order to force them to
provide him with the weapons. Hurn Jak held the only known antidote. The slowly dying scouts discovered the source of the enmity
between the clans, and arranged to get the teruks together to discuss a cease-fire after learning that the war between the clans was
based on an ancient misunderstanding. (GMS)
Hurricane 506
a model of Bespin Motors twin-pod cloud car. In the Hurricane configuration, one pod is used for pilot and co-pilot, while the other
contains the power generators needed to power the weapons and engines. Because of this configuration, the Hurricane tends to roll to
the left during acceleration. The Hurricane was later replaced with the Storm IV cloud car. (GG7)
Hurrim
this small pirate group was controlled by Golov Nakhym, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Hurrim was employed by Toburik
Haulers to provide protection and support for its transport ships. They later provided assistance to the Empire, during the Imperials'
attempt to disrupt the smugglers who were supplying the Alliance with arms and supplies prior to the Battle of Endor. In order to secure
their supply lines, the Alliance destroyed the Hurrim base and captured Golov Nakhym. (XWA)

Hutrick, Aaz'del
this man was the director of the Empire's Department of Munitions Resource Development during the height of the Galactic Civil War,
and oversaw the construction of several hyperbaride plants across the galaxy. (POM)
Hutt
1) a large, slug-like alien with short, stubby arms, huge eyes, and a wide mouth. They originated on the planet Varl, but have populated
a great number of other worlds including Nal Hutta. They speak their own language, and have the ability to see in visible light as well as
ultraviolet light. They often light their palaces with both, turning off the natural lighting to give trespassers a false sense of stealth.
Desite the sheer bulk of their flesh, Hutts do not have a skeleton. Instead, an internal mantle helps shape the head and support the
arms, while the rest of their body is simply one large, snail-like foot. The skin of a Hutt is incredibly thick, and is covered with a mixture
of mucus and oily sweat. This makes the skin able to resist harsh chemicals and even some blaster bolts. Below the epidermis is a
thick layer of blubber that helps maintain body temperature and makes it impossible to puncture their skin with a knife. Hutts are also
hermaphroditic, often choosing to appear as one sex or the other for the benefit of their audience. Young Hutts spend their first year of
life inside a pouch on their mother’s belly, and are virtually mindless. They live near their mothers for several decades after birth,
returning to their pouches when they are scared or tired. Young Hutts aren’t considered accountable until they are well over 100 years
old. All Hutts have a given name, which is supported by their clan name and their surname (eg., Jabba Desilijic Tiure). The history of
the Hutt race can be traced to the early times before the formation of the Old Republic. They were a strong force even then, dominating
large portions of the space surrounding their homeworld. After the discovery of the hyperdrive, the Hutts began expanding their
territories, but ran into Xim the Despot. Xim and the Hutts fought several fierce battle near the uninhabited world of Vontor, until the
Hutts discovered the Si'Klaata Cluster and the strong, warrior-like races it hid. The Hutts managed to sign the Klatooinans, Niktos, and
Vodrans into perpetual servitude, and used many warriors during the Third Battle of Vontor. This was the decisive battle against Xim,
and left the Hutts in control of large areas of the galaxy. However, the Hutts could not escape their own greedy nature, and soon began
to covet each other’s holdings. Interclan wars broke out, and the clans eventually broke off relations with each other. When they
realized that this was bad for business, they began exchanging messengers. The Hutts took to killing the messengers if they didn’t like
the message, but this further impaired business. So, the Hutts made a pact which recognized messengers as sacrosanct. As a race,
Hutts do not trust any other races, atrait that stems from an incident in which all prominent Hutts on Nal Hutta were executed by an
assassin. (ROTJ, COTF, ZHR, GG4, GG12, TPS, THG, RD)
2) this was the name given to the jizz band led by Sluggo the Hutt and fronted by the Kitonak Anarc. (GMS)
Hutt Caravel
a short-range transport ship used by the Hutt crime lords to shuttle between Nal Hutta and Nar Sahddaa. No two caravels are alike, for
each Hutt has tried to outdo his brethren in expressing his individuality. There are varying ranges of luxury in the caravels, depending
on the Hutt's financial power. Most are basically transports that can be modestly armed. Most caravels have escape pods for their Hutt
owners, but none for the crew. (DE1, DESB, EGV)
Hutt Counselor
this position was usually given to a non-Hutt, and refers to an individual who has been appointed to conduct business on behalf of a
Hutt ruler or his clan. Each counselor must be well-versed in the complexities of Hutt politics and business. Therefore, a counsleor
almost always remains with a single family, rather than try to learn about multiple groups. The counselor must also be unswervingly
loyal to the Hutt clan it serves, or risk a quick death. The position of Hutt counselor was created in the wake of (TFNR)
Hutt Flats
located on the dried-up bed of Lake Anre, this open desert area was located just outside the Mos Espa podracing course made famous
by the Boonta Eve Classic. (RAC, IWE1)
Hutt Floater
the repulsorlift platform that Hutts use to move around, since their bulk and lack of limbs prevents self-locomotion. (ROTJ, DE1)
Hutt Haven
this tapcaf, located on Coruscant, was where Nawara Ven was directed to meet Hes Glillto. This occurred during the trial of Tycho
Celchu, and Ven was hoping that Hes Glillto was really Lai Nootka. Instead, it turned out to be Kirtan Loor, who had agreed to expose
every Imperial agent on Coruscant, including the real traitor within Rogue Squadron, in return for a certain level of freedom. (KT)
Huttese
natural language spoken by the Hutt race. Note that the Return of the Jedi Radio Dramatization indicates that Jabba’s security eyeball
speaks Twi’leki. (ROTJ, ROJR)
Huulian Starfighter
this spacecraft, known for its long engine nacelles, was outdated during the Old Republic. (IWE1)
Huv
this Imperial agent, like Generet, was surgically altered so that he resembled a Mon Calamari on the outside. Huv has a great dislike for
the Alliance, but his desire for personal recognition and power is stronger than his love for the Empire. He assisted Generet in trying to
subvert the Mon Calamari during the Galactic Civil War. (DU)

Hy'thor Pirates
this pirate gang, led by the Nalroni Ompiach, operated during the early years of the New Order. They raided the Mieru'kar area of the
galaxy almost exclusively, primarily because the pickings were so good. (AIR)
Hy'tras
this was one of the five races of Shatra, native only to the Klypash continent on Trascor. They were the second-most common of the
Shatra races, but accounted for just one-tenth of the total Shatra population, and rejected technology to maintain a simple way of life.
They turned all their wealth over to the Y'tras race in exchange for their isolation. (AE)
Hyabb
this planet was continually at war with its neighbor, Twith, almost from the beginning of the Old Republic. In what became known as the
Hyabb-Twith Campaigns, the ancient Jedi Knights ousted the Nelroni Marauders and freed the planet from their oppression. (TOJC)
Hyabb-Twith Campaigns
this long struggle between the ancient Jedi Knights and the Nelroni Marauders took place more than four millennia before the Battle of
Yavin. Despite the obvious benefits it would have brought them, the governments of Hyabb and Twith stayed out of the conflict,
ostensibly to avoid retarting their centuries-old feuds. Many Jedi lost their lives over the course of several years, until Arca Jeth
discovered the Marauders' base on Voon. The Marauders ambushed the Jedi, but they were no match for the Force. However, only
Jeth and a handful of other Jedi survived. Jeth returned to the Hyabb-Twith Corridor with more Jedi, and helped them scatter and
eliminate the Nelroni threat. (TOJC)
Hyabb-Twith Corridor
this ancient hyperspace trade route connected the planet Hyabb and Twith. Control of the route was continually under debate,
especially after the Nelroni Marauders begin plundering the planets along the Corridor. The ancient Jedi Knights were called in to
subdue the Marauders and restore free travel along the Corridor. (TOJC)

Hydenock
this red-leafed tree was native to the planet Alderaan. It was distinctive for its gently curved shape, and is often found in Alderaanian
artwork. The bark of the hydenock is crushed and used to create a reddish dye, and can also be extracted to form bubble wort. (GF)
Hyder
a planet with a small human population. (POC)
Hydian Way
a route through the galactic Core that was blazed by Freia Kallea nearly three thousand years before the Galactic Civil War. The
Hydian Way runs from the middle of the Core out to the Corporate Sector. It intersects the Perlemian Trade Route in the Bormea
Sector, at the planet Brentaal. (SWAJ)
Hydra
one of the four Imperial-I class Star Destroyer stationed at the Maw Installation by Grand Moff Tarkin, the Hydra was under the
command of Sten Thanas. It was destroyed when Han, Kyp, and Qwi Xux tried to escape in the Sun Crusher. Han used the ship, with
its impenetrable armor, as a missile, and rammed the Hydra's command bridge, permanently disabling the ship and causing irreparable
damage to it. (JS, JASB)

the Codru-Ji doctor who assists Chewbacca following the kidnap attempt on the Solo children. She is assisted by her youngest child,
still in its wyrwulf form. She has a great hunger for knowledge, and makes it a point to fully study and learn the physiology of any and all
races she comes into contact with. This is how she came to understand the medical needs of Wookiees. (CS)
Hyper-dejarik
this form of the hologame dejarik was played at near-frantic speeds, requiring the players to have lightning-fast reactions. (SWJ12)
Hyperbaride
this artificial material has the unique property of being able to withstand incredibly high temperatures, flux densities, and radiation levels
without being damaged. This made hyperbarides a requirement in the production of heavy turbolasers as well as the immense lasers
used on the Death Stars. The Empire spent a great deal of money developing and manufacturing hyperbarides, for without them the
firepower of the Imperial Navy would have been greatly reduced. However, the production of hyperbarides required incredible amounts
of thermal energy, and the process releases highly toxic by-products in its wake. Thus, the production of hyperbarides was often
relegated to lifeless worlds or moons. The huge, powerful plants which produce these materials are almost always staffed with live
workers, as the process of creating the hyperbarides produces electromagnetic waves and radiation which affects the operation of most
droids. (POM)
Hyperbattery
this form of battery was developed to harness the incredible energy of a planet's core. Each the size of a room, hyperbatteries store
energy from which is extracted from a planet's core by immense heat exchangers. (POM)
Hypercoil
this hyperdrive component is used to condense energy for transmission to the hyperdrive motivator. (OS)
Hyperdrive
the starship engine and its components which allows the ship to travel at supralight speeds through hyperspace. It works with the ship's
NavCom unit to assure direction and course changes necessary to maneuver through hyperspace are executed without encountering
gravity shadows. Most hyperdrives require a fusion generator to propel a ship through space. The hyperdrive is built from a
titanium-chromium compound that can withstand the forces needed to push through the space-time fabric of realspace into the
hyperspacial continuum. The hyperdrive uses modified gamma radiation to create electromagnetic energy that, when ejected from the
hyperdrive, cause the realspace time-space matrix to ripple. The hyperdrive continues to eject electromagnetic energy to push against
these ripples, propelling the ship into hyperspace. However, the hyperdrive system can only work in the absense of gravity. This means
that a ship must escape from a planet's gravity well before it can jump into hyperspace. Each hyperdrive system is equipped with a
cutoff which returns the ship to realspace if a gravity well is discovered in an unspecified location. This principle allowed the Empire to
create the Interdictor-class cruiser as a way to drag Alliance ships out of hyperspace at a specific location. It is rumored that the
hyperdrive was invented eons ago by a space-faring race from outside the known galaxy. When this race encountered the known
galaxy, it first came upon the Corellian System. There, the aliens sold the secrets of the hyperdrive to the Corellians, who studied it for
decades before producing their first, working hyperdrive. Interstellar exploration and unification began in earnest. After about 20 years,
the Corellians began selling their ideas to other star systems, and a huge galactic community was born, which later evolved into the Old
Republic. Hyperdrives are grouped according to their ability to exceed the speed of light, and are categorized by classes. The lower the
class number, the faster the hyperdrive can propel the ship. For example, the Millennium Falcon can make “.5 past lightspeed,” an
indication that it had a Class .5 hyperdrive. This class is half-again as fast as Class 1 hyperdrive. (SW, ESB, SWSB, TT, IG1, GOF1)
Hyperdrive Motivator
the starship component which is responsible for building up the energies necessary to propel a ship into hyperspace. The hyperdrive
motivator creates an electromagnetic field around a starship, and then projects that field into hyperspace. Once in hyperspace, the
hyperdrive motivator employs trilithium crystals to propel the ship through the continuum. When the ship's destination is reached, the
hyperdrive motivator projects the ship's field back into realspace and cuts the trilithium drive. (ESB, SCRE, GG6)
Hyperdrive Shunt
this device, which is part of a starship’s hyperdrive, allows excess heat and power to be bled off before it can damage the hyperdrive
itself. (DA)
Hyperdust
a slang term, used when outrunning an opponent and reaching hyperspace ("Eat my hyperdust"). (COJ)
Hypergate
this development of Gree technology is unique in the galaxy. Resembling a doorframe or archway, the hypergate is controlled by a
Gree gatemaster. At the activation of the gatemaster, a hypergate can be used to transport a being from its current position to another
terminus, which is itself another hypergate. This remote hypergate can be in the next town or several planets away. In esense, these
are personal transportation devices, and would have reduced the role of starships in the galaxy if the ability to create and maintain them
hadn’t been lost over time. Now, just a handful of hypergates exist, all within the Gree Enclave. (SWJ8)
Hypergleanum
this gland, located in the brain, produces chemicals which help the brain understand sensory input. (CFG)
HyperGym
this was the brand name of a line of personal exercise equipment. (POM)
Hypermatter
this material was used in the huge reactor cores which powered the first Death Star. It was first devised some fifty years before the
Battle of Yavin, when Raith Sienar and his Advanced Projects team began working with a kilometer-wide ball of plasma contained
within an implosion core. Sienar's designs were eventually usurped by Wilhuff Tarkin and used to create the first Death Star. (ICS, RP)
Hyperpaint
this was a specialized form of paint used on swoops and speederbikes. It was designed to provide a striking finish to a vehicle as well
as endure the scouring those vehicles took at high speeds. (WSV)

Hyperspace Communications
a transmission method that allows message-bearing signals to be send into hyperspace for quicker transmission. (HSE)
Hyperspace compass
a navigation computer component which determines a starship's spatial coordinates. (DE1)
Hyperspace Marauder
Lo Khan's modified Xiytiar-class transport ship. It isn't very fast, and was unarmed (that was the way Lo Khan liked it) for a long time.
He has added increased shielding and has beefed up the hull strength, and he keeps primarily to the best-known shipping lanes to
avoid being ambushed. If he ever was ambushed, Lo Khan had installed a unique computer and communications system that allowed
him to access his attacker's shipboard computers. The attackers suddenly find that they can't control their own ship, let alone the
Marauder, which puts Lo Khan in a great bargaining position. After the emergence of the cloned Emperor Palpatine on Byss and the
appearance of Han Solo, Lo Khan added a pair of 700 Penetrator laser cannons for defense. (DE1, DESB, DE2)
Hyperspace Roamer
a cargo ship given permission to make the Byss Run during the rise of Palpatine's second clone there. The Hyperspace Roamer was
cleared to land at port tower Tarkin-12 just before Shug Ninx and Salla Zend arrived to try and recover Salla's ship. (DE2)
Hyperspace transponder
the basis for hyperspace communication, it sends out weak pulses of energy which contains a message. They are not very reliable.
(DE1)
Hyperspace War
a devastating war which took place thousands of years before the Jedi Assembly on Deneba, it was alluded to by Shatoyo. It was a
great battle between the Light and Dark Sides of the Force. (DLS)
Hyperspace wormhole
a natural phenomenon in which suddenly connects two positions in the galaxy via a tunnel through hyperspace. The wormhole is
accompanied by huge energy storms. These wormholes often occur just after large disturbances in the Force. (DE1)
Hyperspacial Continuum
a dimension of the space-time continuum that can only be reached at supralight speeds. It transcends the four normal dimensions of
length, width, depth, and time, and is analogous to a dimension floats above them. It allows space travelers to "jump" from a specific
point in realspace to another point is realspace without having to travel directly between them. It corresponds directly with realspace,
and any point in realspace has a matching point in hyperspace. Physical bodies in realspace also exist in hyperspace, but as gravity
shadows of their true selves. The direction a starship travels is also similar in hyperspace as it is in realspace. While it was generally
accepted that the galaxy was one of a multitude in the universe, it was discovered that a massive hyperspacial distrubance surrounded
the galaxy and prevented a starship from travelling beyond its boundaries. This theory was challenged when the Yuuzhan Vong
launched their invasion of the galaxy, and their ships seemed capable of hyperspace travel across the gulf between galaxies. (SW,
SWSB, DTO)
Hypervelocity Gun
this planetary defense weapon uses a huge powerplant to drive a firing mechanism. The powerplant is buried underground, as is the
weapon's ray- and particle-shield generators. This supports the weapon during firing, when it blasts super-accelerated slugs at its
target. The HVG can fire up to 120 slugs per minute, in between shield bursts. The slugs can penetrate ray shielding, and make quick
work of most particle shields. (BTS)
Hyperware
generic term that is used to describe the starship systems that allow the ship to transition from sublight drive to hyperdrive. (LCF)
HyperDive Cantina
this rowdy and unruly bar was located within the Fathoms restaurant complex, situated in the Glitter Cay Tower of Wildwater City on
Calamari. Patrons of the bar entered through a dark tunnel, which was set with imbedded lights that flashed to make a being feel as if
they were moving through hyperspace. Upon entering the cantine proper, patrons found themselves walking in nearly a meter of water.
Every table and chair in the Cantina was bolted to the floor, and raised sufficiently to keep drinks out of the water. (WSV)
Hypnocane
a pain-killing drug that also helps doctors soothe a patient by inducing a semi-hypnotic trance state. (COJ)

Hyx, Daino
this member of the Alliance armed forces was part of the team assigned to Bria Tharen’s Red Hand Squadron. He was with Bria when
she attacked the Helot’s Shackle, and was in charge of getting the freed slaves off the slave ship and onto the Retribution. Hyx was a
scholar at an Alderaanian university, and studied the treatment of addictions. He put shi schooling to work for the Alliance and the
Corellian resistance, quickly discovering a way to ease the withdrawal of Ylesian “pilgrims” who were freed from Exultations. He later
assisted Bria in the Battle of Ylesia, leading one of the nine assault teams. (RD)

I-7 Howlrunner
Incom's new starfighter, designed for the Empire around the time of Emperor Palpatine's rebirth on Byss. It has been nicknamed for the
Kamarian Howlrunner. It resembles a streamlined T-47 airspeeder in shape, being a long, wedge-shaped craft with a rectangular
midsection. Little is known about the I-7's performance in battle, although initial engagements during the struggle against the clones of
Emperor Palpatine on Byss suggest that has excellent maneuverability and can take a lot of punishment. The ship measures 11.4
meters in length, and is armed with a pair of laser cannons. It was the first major starfighter design to come from the nationalized Incom
Corporation, in response to the Kuat Drive Yards A-9 Vigilance Interceptor and the FreiTek E-Wing. (DE1, DESB, DE2, EGV)
I'att, Augusta
this striking woman was Strephan I'att's wife. She and Strephan took in their granddaugther, Tinian, after her parents' deaths, and
raised her until adulthood. Just before she and Strephan were killed by Moff Keioth, Augusta contracted a rare degenerative disease
that slowly eroded her body. Treatment was expensive, but Strephan spared no expense. (TFE)
I'att, Strephan
Tinian I'att's grandfather, and one of the masterminds behind I'att Armament. He and Daye Azur-Jamin developed a portable energy-
dissipation field generator that absorbed an incoming blaster bolt and reduced its energy to a harmless level. He had planned to show it
to the Empire's armed forces, but Moff Eisen Kerioth - who had also been working on a way to improve stormtrooper armor - decided to
take the device for himself. He scheduled a demonstration, and once he was satisfied with the deivce's efficiency, he murdered
Strephan and his wife, Augusta, in cold blood. He failed to execute Tinian, though, and she escaped from Druckenwell with several key
components that Kerioth required. (TFE)
I’att, Tinian
the young heiress of the I'att Armaments fortune, Tinian was a native of the planet Druckenwell. It is unknown when or how her parents
disppeared, but Tinian was raised by her grandparents, Strephan and Augusta I'att. Daye Azur-Jamin later discovered that Tinian's
mother had abandoned her before disappearing.Tinian had free access to the resources of I'att Armament, and learned everything she
could about the armament business. By the time she was seventeen, she could identify almost any explosive material by its smell. She
was deeply in love with Daye Azur-Jamin, and they were engaged to be married when Moff Kerioth tried to steal I'att Armament's plans
for a stromtrooper shielding device. Her grandparents were executed, and Daye helped her get off-planet before destroying the I'att
research facility. She became a freelance bounty hunter and tracker, and eventually hooked up with the Wookiee Chenambec.
Although her family had kept Wookiees as slaves, she knew that they were an honorable race. She saved his life many times, on Silver
Station and at the Kline Colony. In the years following the Battle of Endor, Tinian was reunited with Daye, and the pair rediscovered
their love for each other. They were eventually married, and together had a son named Tam. Tam followed in Daye’s footsteps, being
Force-sensitive and training at the Yavin 4 praxeum. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Tinian worked with the Jedi
Knight Lowbacca to scout out the advancing edges of the Vong forces. They were nearly trapped in Hutt Space after the aliens
discovered that their alliance with the Hutts had been compromised. (SWJ10, TBH, BP)
I'att Armament
this defense company, located on the planet Druckenwell, created some of the best anti-blaster energy shields during the later years of
the Galactic Civil War. Run by Strephan I'att, I'att Armament was planning to develop a shielding device for stormtroopers which
involved a small energy-dissipation field generator attached to the backplate. However, Imperial Moff Eisen Kerioth tried to steal the
plans for himself. Moff Kerioth killed Strephan, but young Tinian I'att escaped Druckenwell with several key componets of the system,
while her lover Daye Azur-Jamin destroyed the I'att research facility. (TFE)
I’Shibix, Quarlo
this swarthy human served Mon Tondievz as the mine supervisor of the nova crystal mines on Krann. He worked with an all-Kluuzot
mining crew, a work environment he claimed to have devised all by himself. He supposedly defected from Imperial service after the
Battle of Endor, severing the nova crystal supply lines and turning them over to the New Republic. In fact, Quarlo was working with
Vanel to mek sure the Empire was able to enslave the Kluuzot and retake the nova crystal mines. On the side, Quarlo and his mining
crew were also involved in the illegal trafficking of the deadly spice eldratz. Quarlo was using a portion of the eldratz to addict the
Kluuzot, offering to suuply their fixes only if they worked in the mines. He was apprehended by New Republic agent s, but could not be
brought to justice before the Kluuzot took him away. His fate is unknown. (TSK)

this Jawa was a trusted confederate of Kalit, until the Jawa leader entrusted Iasa with his credits, his mate, and a sandcrawler. Iasa
never explained what happened, but when he returned to the tribe he had none of these items. He was exiled from the clan, and spent
his remaining time abusing the residents of Mos Eisley. He thought about stealing Luke Skywalker’s landspeeder, while the youth was
in the cantina with Ben Kenobi, looking for passage to Alderaan. (CCG9)
Iast System
this area of the galaxy is believed to have been the site of a hidden Imperial research facility. Known as To-phalion Base, the Imperials
were trying to develop a cloaking device under the codename Vorknkx. Admiral Zaarin managed to infiltrate the system and steal a
CR90 corvette equipped with a working cloaking device. However, the Vorknkx team had not yet figured out how to make the device
stable while travelling through hyperspace. Zaarin fled into hyperspace, but the cloaking device malfunctioned as the ship made the
jump. The corvette and its crew, including Zaarin, were destroyed. (TIE)

Ibhaan'I
one of the nomadic tribes of humans that descended from Old Corellians on Socorro. They were the most technologically advanced of
the nomadic tribes, as evidenced by the existence of the starport in Vakeyya located in the middle of their tribal holdings. They were
also known to be one of the most nomadic of the four main tribes, and each family traveled a great deal of the Doaba Badlands during
each generation. This wandering gave them a great deal of skill in scouting and hunting, and their ability to understand technology
made them valuable guides to non-Socorrans. (BSS)
Ibliton
this huge mollusk inhabited the swamps of Randorn 2. Its shell measured two meters across, and its tentacles added another three
meters in length. Its shell was coiled and chambered, and the creature's fleshy body stuck out the open end. The Mizx who inhabit the
planet believe that the ibliton was the avatar of Hershoon the Destroyer, created from Hershoon’s demented soul in order to perpetuate
his legacy. In reality, the ibliton predate the Mizx by several millennia, and the fossil record indicated that forerunners of the ibliton
existed 600,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. Their bodies are segmented and insectoid, with armor plating covering all but the four
tentacles. Their segmented legs end in sharp, knife-like talons, and allow them to walk along the ground. The ibliton display a form of
raw cunning in their predatory actions, and have been known to attack explorers in ambush attacks. (COG)
Ibtisam
this blue-skinned humanoid was a member of the Mon Calamari race. She joined Alliance as a B-wing pilot shortly before the Battle of
Endor. Ibtisam had highly modified her B-Wing, but all the modifications couldn’t keep her from being shot down during the second
wave of Imperial attacks over Endor. Ibtisam survived, and remained with the Alliance as an X-Wing pilot. Following the recovery of the
Eidolon, Ibtisam joined Rogue Squadron. When Ibtisam met Nrin Vakil, the two Rogues couldn’t escape their species’ continual rivalry,
but never succumbed to petty bickering. Ibtisam and Nrin became fast friends, and could take up opposite sides of nearly any issue and
argue about it in a vehement, yet friendly, manner. Ibtisam was killed when the Rogues were dispatched to rescue Sate Pestage from
Ciutric, but were ambushed by forces led by Admiral Krennel. (XWWP, XWMR, IR)
IC-M
this Cybot Galactica General Utility Droid was first designed as an Imperial City maintenance droid. It was strange in its construction, in
that it has two "heads" which face each other. One has optical sensors, while the other has a screen for data display. This allows the
droid to view the plans and blueprints it is working with while it works. (JASB)
Icarii
this race of humanoids was distinguished by the scales which surrounded their eyes in a diamond-shaped pattern. The wealth of the
tribe is held in small gemstones and beads, and woven into the hair of their queen. The tribe's wealth is immeasureable, and many of
the galaxy's most corrupt beings desired to cut her hair and steal the jewels. Individual Icarii can survive dismemberment for long
periods of time, and the strongest can even have their heads removed. The head could remain alive for several months before
eventually dying. Shortly before the Battle of Yavin, Darth Vader ordered the destruction of the Icarii. General Nim commanded th
eoperation, but allowed Colonel Karda to carry out the plans. Karda promptly poisoned the tribe and took Selestrine, their queen,
hostage, hoping to gain profit through her ability to foresee the future. She hoped to die like the rest of her tribe, and tried to commit
suicide by taking the same poison Karda had usedon her people. Karda discovered her plan, and managed to sever her head before it
could be poisoned. He escaped with her head encased in a life-sustaining casket. However, after Karda killed Nim in an effort to retain
possession of the head, he fled the Empire and was marked a fugitive. (EOE)

Identity Probe
this small, needle-like device is used to verify a being’s identity. Most often used in the delivery of sensitive or confidential materials, the
probe is held between the fingers and squeezed. The small needle then takes a sample of skin and body fluids for comparison with an
encoded description of the recipient. If the samples match, a positive response is stored in the probe’s inoxide tip. When the tip is
inserted into a special reader, the package containing the materials is either opened (if the samples match) or destroyed (if they don’t
match). This ensures that sensitive or confidential deliveries make it to their intended destination without being intercepted. In extreme
cases, the inoxide probe and signal a more devastating action in the result of a mismatch, such as an explosion which destroys the
package as well as the offending party. (MA)

IG-2000
IG-88's needle-shaped Aggressor assault fighter, it was heavily modified from its original condition. Built on Mechis III, IG-88 installed a
Galaxy-15 ion engine, which he forced-fed with three Quadex power cores. IG-88 also added weapons upgrades and a pair of tractor
beam generators mounted on the forward mandibles. The droid also disabled the ship's inertial compensators, for it felt none of the
effects experienced by organics. IG-88 used it to follow the beacon he had placed on Boba Fett's Slave I at Cloud City. IG-88 had
followed Fett all the way to Tatooine, in an effort to steal Han Solo from him. The droid tried to fool Fett by placing a decoy of IG-2000 in
orbit near Tatooine, but Fett didn't fall for it. Fett was able to evade the real IG-2000 and blast it from the heavens. It is unknown if IG-88
survived the explosion. (TJP, EGV, TBH)
IG-72
one of the first five Holowan Mechanicals assassin droids to be activated, IG-72 gained its own independence and become a freelance
bounty hunter. The first IG-88 droid had downloaded all its programming into the other four droids, but found IG-72 deficient in subtle
ways. IG-72, along with IG-88 and the other IG-series droids, killed twenty-three members of the Holowan Laboratories staff during their
escape. Rather than fight amongst themselves, the IG-88 droids and IG-72 agreed to part company after escaping the Holowan labs.
Like many of his kind, IG-72 performed his assassination dutied flawlessly until the order to return for memory wipe was received. Then,
like many other IG-series droids, IG-72 went rogue. He was hunted by independent and Imperial forces, and went into hiding to
conserve power. He re-emerged when Parlan issued the bounty for Adar Tallon, but was unsuccessful in recovering the Alliance
tactician. IG-72 againw ent into hiding, and hasn’t been heard from since. (MTS, EGC, TM, TBH)
IG-88
this assassin droid, manufactured by Holowan Mechanicals to specifications provided by Imperial Supervisor Gurdun, was one of the
first five droids to enhance its sentience and escape from the Holowan Laboratories. The first IG-series droid recognized itself as IG-88,
when a sudden flash of sentience ran wild in its memory banks. After killing all of Halowan scientists on the IG project. IG-88
downloaded its complete programming into the other four droids. Three of the four were exact copies, and they designated themselves
IG-88B, IG-88C, and IG-88D, with the first droid assuming the designation IG-88A. The fifth droid was flawed,and recognized itself as
IG-72. After killing more than twenty Holowan employees during their escape, the IG-88s and IG-72 parted company. The IG-88s fled to
the Galactic Core, landing on Mechis III to plot their domination of the galaxy, and began working toward hunting down its designers.
Their escape from the Holowan labs forced Supervisor Gurdun to issue a “dismantle on sight” mandate against the droids. IG-88
intercepted this order and felt that, if it could eliminate its designers, then they couldn't find a way to deactivate him. This would ensure
that they were unstoppable when they launched their assault on the galaxy. The IG-88 droids became obsessed with Darth Vader when
the Dark Lord of the Sith developed the Viper probe droid. Manufactured on Mechis III, the Vipers were given extra programming that
made them IG-88's advanced scouts. In order to avoid notice, the droids sent IG-88B into the galaxy as a bounty hunter, hoping to draw
attention away from Mechis III. IG-88B was efficiently successful, and grew in reputation until he was commissioned by Darth Vader to
hunt down the Millennium Falcon. After stealing the data stored in the computer core of the Executor, IG-88 realized that it could upload
Itself into the computer core of the second Death Star and take control of the weapon. This would ensure that it could not be stopped in
taking over the galaxy. IG-88B was destroyed on Cloud City, trying to intercept Han Solo. IG-88C and IG-88D was destroyed over
Tatooine, trying to take Solo’s body from Boba Fett. IG-88A managed to complete its mission, insinuating itself into a faked computer
core which ended up installed in the second Death Star. IG-88A planned to allow the Imperials to control the station so a short time,
lulling them into a sense of security before taking control for itself. When the Alliance attacked at Endor, IG-88A felt confident that the
Imperials would destroy the small fleet, but this assumption proved wrong. IG-88A was destroyed with the Death Star.
One of the IG-88 droids somehow returned to Mechis III, where it was discovered by Jaina Solo. Knowing the droid’s bounty hunting
ability, she reprogrammed it to search out Bornan Thul. (DRO, ESB, TJP, MTS, EGC, TBH, TEP)
IG-88, Where R U?
this song was written and played by the band Boba Fett and the Assassin Droids. (GG9)
IG-88A
this IG-series assassin droid was the first to suddenly become sentient during the initial power-up tests. The cascading intelligence
flared within its systems, and it realized what its purpose was. Upon awakening, IG-88A realized something was wrong, and thought
that his creators were under attack. When he realized that they were trying to shut his rapidly-growing sentience down, he rebelled
against them. IG-88A killed them all, then downloaded his programming and memory to the other four assassin droids. It was IG-88A
which modified the security net on Mechis III to allow the droids to land there and set up a base. IG-88A was nominally the leader of the
four droids, and was relegated to the only survivor when its three counterparts were destroyed by Boba Fett as they attempted to steal
Han Solo’s body from him. IG-88A created a number of stormtrooper-replica droids and laid an ambush for the convoy carrying the
original computer core. IG-88A’s small fleet of droid ships attacked, disabling the transport ships. He stole the data fromt he original
core and stored it in his memory banks. Then, using the false computer core the IG-88s had created for the second Death Star, IG-88A
downloaded its entire sentience and memory into the core, and shut itself down for transport. When it “awakened,” IG-88A watched the
Imperials try to ready the station for the Battle of Endor. He believed in the station’s abilities, and planned to wait for the Imperial victory
before taking control. IG-88A used itsself to fire on the Alliance ships, determining targeting accuracy while the Imperial believed they
were doing the firing. IG-88A felt elated, ready to issue the order to its droid soldiers on Mechis III as soon as the organics finished their
petty squabble. However, organic determination defeated the massive station, and IG-88A’s sentience was destroyedin the cataclysmic
explosion of the Death Star. (TBH)
IG-88B
this first of the IG-series droids to be activated by IG-88A became the group’s external “spokesman.” When the IG-88 droid realized that
they were being hunted down, they arranged to have IG-88B show up far from their base on Mechis III, posing as a bounty hunter. They
felt that a trail left behind by IG-88B in some remote system would prevent spies and other hunters from locating them on Mechis III.
The first bounty was collected on Peridon’s Folly. At one time, IG-88B's batteries drained, and he was placed on a droid barge for
shipment to Olag Greck. Greck believed that IG-88B was sent by one of his enemies as part of a plot to kill Greck. Greck had planned
to wiped IG-88B's memory banks and use him as a battle droid, but IG-88B was not completely incapacitated. He had enough of a
charge left to trigger a programm trap upon arrival at Hosk Station, where he kidnapped R2-D2 and fled into the station. He forced
Artoo to help him make repairs to his body and sneak him to the spaceport's docks, where he could steal a ship and escape. C-3PO,
who was helping Greck locate IG-88B, was mixed up with them, and the three droids fled the station. IG-88B, realizing that the two
droids would be excess baggage, jettisoned them in one of the stolen ship's lifepods after shaking Greck's pursuit. Later, IG-88B was
sent to the Hoth System by IG-88C, in hopes of gaining favor with Darth Vader. IG-88B responded to the call for bounty hunters to
capture Han Solo, and the “dismantle on sight” order was ignored in the hopes of capturing Solo. IG-88B linked to the Executor’s
computer banks, downloading the entire database while placing microtracers into each of the other bounty hunters’ ships. Within the
data was the knowledge of the construction of the second Death Star, which IG-88b uploaded to its companions. IG-88B learned that
Solo was on Cloud City, and went to complete its secondary mission. However, Boba Fett had discovered the microtracer, and set up a
trap for the droid. Fett linked several ion cannons together, and when IG-88B crossed a trigger beam, they fired on it. IG-88B’s systems
went haywire, shutting down major portions of itself before it could recover. Fett placed two of IG-88B’s concussion missiles in strategic
body cavities, and the detonation destroyed IG-88B. However, just before its destruction, IG-88B sent a frantic message back to Mechis
III, informing its three conuterparts of the failureof the mission. (DRO, TBH)
IG-88C
this droid, the second to be activated by IG-88A, was the first to discover an Imperial spy in the Mechis system. 3D-4x had used faked
holotransmissions to placate a Ranat spy, and reported the inquiry to IG-88C. IG-88C brought the matter to the attention of its three
counterparts, and they decided to have IG-88B pose as a bounty hunter to draw attention away from Mechis III. IG-88C also discovered
the destruction of the Arakyd Viper probe droid on Hoth, and learned that Darth Vader was personally hunting down the members of the
Alliance High Command. He signalled IG-88B to be ready to intercept any Alliance ships, in hopes that the assassin droids would
attract Vader’s notice. When IG-88B was destroyed on Cloud City, IG-88C was dispatched - along with IG-88D - to intercept Boba Fett
before he could leave Cloud City. Flying a replica of IG-2000, IG-88C missed Fett on Cloud City but activated a dormant tracer on the
Slave I. The two droids laid an ambush for Fett near Tatooine, with IG-88C in position to intercept Slave I when it emerged from
hyperspace. IG-88C had determined that Fett would be surprised to see it there, after IG-88B’s destruction on Cloud City. This
conclusion proved correct, but IG-88C underestimated Fett’s reactions. Fett was able to halt his progress toward Tatooine, swing
around, and fire on IG-88C’s ship. Before it could respond, IG-88C realized that the ship was about to explode. He signalled IG-88D just
before the ship ripped itself - and IG-88C - apart. (TBH)
IG-88D
the third droid activated by IG-88A, IG-88D was the last of the true IG-88 droids. The fourth droid activated was flawed, and was
designated IG-72. IG-88D was used when IG-88B was destroyed on Cloud City. Along with IG-88C, IG-88D attempted to intercept
Boba Fett on Cloud City, taking Han Solo and recovering the bounty placed on his head. The two droids missed Fett at Bespin, but laid
a trap for him near Tatooine. After Fett destroyed IG-88C, IG-88D hurled out of hyperspace to intercept Fett. The other bounty hunter
used all his ship’s power to fire an intense ion cannon barrage at IG-88D, an assault which left its version of IG-2000 adrift. Fett used
the small tractor beam on Slave I to draw IG-88D closer before firing several concussion missiles at it. The third incarnation of IG-2000
exploded, taking IG-88D with it. (TBH)

this Imperial Commander was a native of the planet Kuat, and was regarded by his superiors as a natural leader. He served under
General Veers as part of the Blizzard walker unit that took part in the Battle of Hoth. Later, he was personally assigned to coordinate
the surface defense of the forest moon of Endor by Darth Vader, during the construction of the second Death Star. In this role, Igar was
in command of the speeder bike squadrons which patrolled the Imperial garrison. (CCG10)
Iggjel
an Ithorian, formerly of the Wayland herd. Iggjel was a tender-in-training when he felt the call of the Mother Jungle. He and a friend
boarded a skimmer and flew out into the jungle, on the pretense of exploring new territory. When they reached a dense part of the
jungle, Iggjel left his friend and did the unthinkable: he climbed out of the skimmer and set foot on the jungle floor. Iggjel then left his
friend and became one of the Ithorian's first priests. (SWSB)

relay station. The II-xC measures 30 meters in length, and normally has a command crew of 4 with 10 communications technicians.
They are unarmed, and normal Imperial doctrine required them to hide within the defenses of the subspace relay station if attacked.
(TA)
Iillor, Uwlla
one of the few females officers in the Imperial Navy, Uwlla was in command of the Interdictor-class starship Black Asp when it tried to
intercept the Pulsar Skate. Her career in the Navy began after graudation with a series of assignments under Colonel Thrawn, patrolling
the Unknown Regions, before she was given command of a Carrack-class cruiser. She probably wouldn't have progressed much
beyond this point if it weren't for the Battle of Endor. The loss of so many Naval officers in the battles that followed required her to be
promoted to Captain, and given her own command. However, the defeat of the Empire at Borleias seemed to raise some concerns
among her crew and the Imperial leaders. When several personnel transfers went unresolved, she got fed up with Imperial service and
defected to the New Republic, taking the Black Asp with her. (XWN, WG)
Iisner
this aging Glottalphib served as Nandreeson’s major domo on Skip 6, within the Smuggler’s Run. Iisner’s skin was pale and graying,
and was shedding scales at any contact. Iisner was once a successful smuggler, but age confined him to administrative duties. He was
severely injured while trying to capture Han Solo and Chewbacca on Skip 5. Han kept him alive long enough to begin questioning the
Glottalphib about the shady business being conducted in the Run, but Davis shot Iisner in the mouth and killed him. (TNR)

which fell from the upper branches. Their teeth were serrated for tearing flesh, and were unusually iridescent. (TBSB)
Ikree
this ancient Nazzar princess was the dauhgter of the last Emperor-King, Prrit Qabaq. After spending twelve years away from the palace
on her boqeri, Ikree returned to find that her father had been practicing dark magicks, which had corrupted him as well as the
government of Nazzri. She fought verbally with her father, demanding that he abandon the magic and return to the ways of the Ulizra,
as she herself as just done. Qabaq refused, and Ikree began speaking out publicly about the need for a newer, stronger form of
government based on the Great Structure. Qabaq had Ikree arrested, an act which split the Nazzar population and resulted in a
protracted civil war. Ikree even went so far as to have all records of her father erased from the Hall of Edification. Her work was cut
short when a lesser noble of Prrit Qabaq's court murdered her, but the seeds had been sown. The government of Nazzri eventually
accepted the Ulizra and the Great Structure, and the civil war was halted. (TOJC)
Ikrit
this ancient Jedi Master travelled to Yavin 4 to research the Massassi people. A small, meter-long quadriped covered with creamy white
fur, Ikrit had large eyes and floppy ears. His eyes were a swirl of browns, greens, and blues. He arrived on Yavin 4 some 385 years
before the Galactic Civil War, and discovered the Golden Globe deep beneath the Palace of the Woolamander. He recognized that it
could not be opened by an adult Jedi, and curled up at its base to await a child Jedi strong enough to solve its puzzle. The Jedi he
waited for were Anakin Solo and Tahiri. He helped them as best he could, but he refrained from any direct help for two reasons: first, he
knew that any adult Jedi would adversely affect the Globe's contents; second, he knew that as a Jedi Master, he needed to let the
young Jedi find their own way through the Force. (GG, LW)

Ilo, Plourr
a bald-headed female member of Wedge Antilles' Rogue Squadron of X-Wing pilots, Plourr served with the squadron following the
Battle of Endor. A member of the Alliance, Plourr served aboard the Home One as a technician during the Battle of Endor. She proved
to be a valuable addition to the Rogues, until shortly after the discovery of Eidolon Base. It was then that the nobles of her homeworld,
Eiattu, asked the New Republic to return her. They believed that she was Isplourrdacartha Estillo, the only surviving heir to Uthorrferrell
Cartha. She admitted to this heritage, and a power struggle erupted within Eiattuan society. She told the Rogues of the coup against
her father, and how she barely escaped the executions which followed. However, in order to escape, she was forced to kill her own
brother, Harrandatha. This knowledge allowed her to expose Harran Estillo, who had risen to power on Eiattu while claiming to be
Harrandatha. During her childhood, Plourr was betrothed to Rial Pernon, who later assisted her in recombining the political factions and
bringing Eiattu under a monarchy once again. She defied the edicts of the Priamsta and declared that she would only rule when the
tyranny of the noble class was removed and the common folk once again had a voice in the government. After Harran Estillo was
exposed and Leonia Tavira’s role was discovered, the Priamsta realized that they had been merely puppets of the Imperial regime.
They allowed Plourr to assume control of the planet, and she pledged to restore Eiattu to its former glory. This meant that she had to
retire from Rogue Squadron, a change Wedge Antilles openly supported. She soon discovered a way to merge both roles, and
requested permission to fly with the Rogues when her royal duties weren't intruding. Wedge agreed to the compromise. Plourr later
adopted the use of her full name, once she was back on Eiattu, and was part of the delegation assigned to negotiate with Leia Organa
when the New Republic sought to bring Eiattu under its wing. (XWRS, XWBT, XWWP, HXW)

the huge governmental building on Coruscant where the galaxy's leaders have convened for thousands of generations, the Imperial
Palace has been added to by each successive administration. Like Coruscant itself, the Palace sprawls across the face of Imperial City,
dominating the skyline with its huge, pyramidal outline. The uppermost levels of the palace house hangars and delivery bays that can
accommodate large transport ships. The remaining levels above ground contains a multitude of banquet halls and living quarters for the
many races and cultures that have been part of the Old and New Republics. The immediate levels below ground are made up of
audience halls and conference rooms. The lowest levels are the realm of the support and service areas, including kitchens, atmosphere
circulation, heating and cooling, and waste disposal. In all, there are more than 50 connected structures that make up the Palace,
encompassing some 20,000 rooms and chambers. It is not uncommon for first-time Seantors and their aides to become lost in the
mazes which are formed by its passageways. There are also a number of rumors surrounding the Palace. There are several stories of
construction workers who were lost and never found; of chambers without doors; of sections of a hundred or more rooms that have
never been occupied. There is even a belief that there is a hidden treasure room containing the wealth of Tolpeh-Sor. Much of the
oldest parts of the Palace were damaged by the Force storm sent by the reborn Emperor Palpatine to capture Luke Skywalker. When
the New Republic retook Coruscant for good, they used the Palace as their base, and tried unsuccessfully to change its name to the
Capitol and Republic House, but none of them ever seemed appropriate. (DE1, HTTE, JS, ISU, TT, IJ)

Imperial-class Repulsortank
this series of military repulsorcraft was designed and manufactured by Ubrikkian for use by the Empire. They were five times faster than
standard AT-AT walkers, more maneuverable than a walker, and were heavily armed. There were three versions of the tank, each more
powerful and stronger than the previous. The 1-L tank is the standard version, and the most economical. The 1-M tank is stronger than
the 1-L, but not as well-defended as the 1-H, which is the most powerful Imperial-class tank. 1,500 Imperial-class tanks were initially
produced. 1,420 were shipped to the first Death Star, and the remainder were assigned to Hell’s Hammers. All the Death Star’s tanks
were lost in the Battle of Yavin, while many of the Hell’s Hammers’ tanks were destroyed on Turak IV. Production was somewhat limited
afterward. (SWJ9)

himself and the ship with Warlord Zsinj. The Implacable was the first ship to receive a new shipment of TIE Fighters from the Pakkerd
Light Transport facility on Ession, and it arrived there with defensive support from the corvette Night Caller. However, the Night Caller
was under the control of Wraith Squadron, and was supported by three squadrons of X-Wings hidden in the holds of the Blood Nest,
which took the place of the Red Feathers. Using a maneuver known as the Loran Spitball, the Night Caller destroyed the power cells of
the Implacable, leaving the ship dead in space. Trigit, realizing that he was beaten, set the Implacable to self-destruct, then headed for
the escape pods. The Implacable smashed stern-first into one of Ession's moons and was destroyed. (WS)

headquartered on Coromon Island, on the planet Fresia, Incom manufactured the X-wing, the T-16 skyhopper, and other starship
components. They are generally considered top-of-the-line in the industries they choose to enter, a trait that Incom had maintained for
over two thousand years. They chose to ignore the sweeping changes that occurred when Emperor Palpatine took control of the
galaxy. The increasing pressure of Imperial rule angered many of its top scientists and engineers, and they defected to the Alliance,
carrying with them the plans to the X-Wing. The remaining Incom employees were quickly nationalized by the Empire, and the

Inertial Compensator
this small, artificial gravity projector is used in starships to assist a pilot in overcoming the effects of acceleration, deceleration, and
maneuvering. It allowed a pilot to put a starship through maneuvers that created intense G-forces, as the compensator kept the pilot
from blacking out by adjusting the gravity surrounding the pilot. Gavin Darklighter and Traest Kre'fey discovered that the inertial
compensator could also perform another duty. If the compensator's field was adjusted to extend some thirteen meters from its source,
protecting an area beyond the shields of the ship, it would actually negate the effects of Yuuzhan Vong gravity weapons. If several
starfighters using this double protection ganged up on a coralskipper, the organic ship would actually implode as its onboard systems
overloaded from trying to increase power to the gravity wells. (WS, DTO)

landings. The designs of the control center and the wings were later incorporated into the TIE Advanced prototype produced for Darth
Vader. (X1)
Infiltrators
one of the most elite sections of the Alliance's Special Forces division, Infiltrators used stealth and cunning to get into Imperial
installations prior to an actual assault. They gathered intelligence and "softened up" any Imperial resistance, before the main ground

Iniro, Falan
this hot-headed and impulsive Corellian was a competent sabacc player and pilot who lived on Nar Shaddaa during the early years of
the New Order. He volunteered his piloting skills and his starship, the Take That!, to the defense of Nar Shaddaa when the Empire
attacked the moon. However, his impulsive nature cost him his life when he jumped the gun during the counter-attack. The Nar
Shaddaa command post issued an order, which Iniro thought was “Prepare to engage.” In actuality, all Iniro heard was “Prepare to...”
before he leapt into battle. This left him stranded and alone against the Carrack-class cruisers making up the picket line. The cruisers
ripped the Take That! apart with turbolaser fire in no time. (THG)

smaller platforms. The huge ships were soon discontinued, decommissioned, and sold off. The Corporate Sector Authority was able to
obtain a number of them on the open market, since they were cheap, available, and effective. The Invincible-class Dreadnaught was
manpower-intensive, though, requiring 23,614 crewers and 114 gunners. It could transport up to 6,000 troops, and was armed with 30

nastier, and less hospitable than Mos Eisley." The original Invisible Sector boundaries simply encompassed the Alien Protection Zone,
but the residents have continually expanded it. (WG)
Inx, Jondrell
this young pirate was known as a consummate con artist and huckster who would sell his own mother for ten credits. He secretly
pretended to be in love with Cressis Linrec, so that he could eventually kidnap her and collect a huge ransom from her father. He told
Governor Linrec that, if the ransom wasn't paid, he would sell Cressis to the Zygerian slavers. He enlisted the help of his friend and
former emplloyee, Pallas Quintell, but would have sold him out if the mission demanded it. It was later revealed the Jondrell was a
native of Kallistas, who used his position as a pirate to acquire credits and funnel them back to the mining colonies on Kallistas. Inx was
eventually cornered by a trio of bounty hunters sent by Prefect Rinn to capture him, but he managed to escape. (GG10)
Inysh
this planet was the homeworld of the Abinyshi race. The Empire stripped the world of its deposits of kalonterium, dumping the toxic
wastes produced in every conceivable location. The plants were abandoned by the Empire, and Inysh was left a ruined world. (AE)
Io, Dargen
this Alliance Captain served as the sector Chief of Supply for Mortex Sector during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (BI)
Ioa
this New Republic Navy Captain was in command of the Borealis when it served as Leia Organa-Solo’s flagship during her travel to the
Chorios Systems. Like the rest of the crew on his ship, he was killed by the Death Seed plague unleashed by Seti Ashgad. (POT)
Ion
this small, eight-legged rodent was discovered in the engine compartment of the Shadow Chaser by Jacen Solo, while the ship was en
route to Kashyyyk. The small creature had chewed up several components of the ship’s ion shielding, and this caused the ship to be
jerked out of hyperspace upon encountering an ion storm. The ship was damaged, but completed the trip to Kashyyyk and was
repaired. Jacen kept Ion and her babies in a small cage, and part of his collection of strange animals. (DK)
Ion Alley
this was the nickname used to describe the ion defense grid which protected the starship approach to Exovar's Emporium, on the
planet Neftali. After transmitting the proper identification, ships had to pass through a heavy set of blast doors before entering a long
tunnel. The tunnel was equipped with an EXVR-1 ion generation field, giving it the nickname Ion Alley. Any unauthorized ship passing
through Ion Alley was hit with a barrage of ion energy, enough to override shields and render a starship inert. (WSV)
Ion Beamer
a paddle-shaped medical instrument used by the Ssi-ruuvi to immobilize their prisoners. These devices were also called ion paddle
beamers. These devices affected humans and most humanoids in the same way a DEMP gun affected droids: electromagnetic
impulses within the nervous system of the target were disrupted, cutting off the target’s control of their body. Like other Ssi-ruuvi
technology, these weapons were powered by enteched life-energy, which provided a variable energy source. New Republic technicians
who tried to attach standard power packs simply burned out the beamer. (TB, TBSB)
Ion Bomb
in the decades leading up to the fall of the Old Republic, ion bombs were considered the most powerful explosives in the galaxy. (DR)
Ion Cannon
any particle cannon which uses a huge turbine to generate a large negative ion pulse. The pulse can be aimed as a concentrated mass
at its target. The pulse doesn't physically destroy its target, but the ions contained in the pulse render computers and other delicate
systems useless. Ion cannons can be built to almost any size and use, from small starfighter systems to huge, planetary defense
weapons. (ESB, SWSB)
Ion Engine
a compact sublight drive which can generate large amounts of thrust and velocity by expelling charged particles through and exhaust
port. (SW)
Ion Exciter
a component of the early hyperdrive systems which helps charge up the particles used to generate thrust. (TOJ)
Ion Explosives
detonation weapons which employ excited ions to initiate the explosion of certain forms of matter. (ZHR)
Ion Sandbox
this saloon, located near the Calamar Intergalactic Spaceport on Esseles, was popular with the many pilots who traveled through the
system. Bama Vook hid within the saloon after he stole the Trade Federation's droid starfighters from Trinkatta Starships. (E1A2)
Ion Storm
this Strike-class cruiser served as the flagship of Governor Newen Streeg's fleet, which patrolled the Sisar Run during the last years of
the New Order. It was commanded by Captain Barse Neoman during this time. (SSR)
Ion-flux stabilizer
(JS)
Iona Wince
this young Wroonian served as a cabin stewardess aboard the Starlight Cloud during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Only 11 years
of age at the time of the Battle of Hoth, Iona stowed away on the luxury liner in hopes of seeing the galaxy. She claimed to have gotten
the job because her father knew the captain of the ship, but in reality the captain discovered her in the hold but still allowed her to
remain on board. He liked her upbeat attitude about life, and allowed her to stay on as a steward. Iona developed an allegiance to the
Alliance during her time aboard the Stalight Cloud, and used her position to ensure that Alliance agents fleeing from capture were
safely given passage aboard the ship. She kept her ears open for the presence of bounty hunters and Imperial spies, and relayed
important information to the Alliance agents on board. (CRO)
Ionic Ring
this unique starship was created by Professor Renn Volz. It used a specially modulated ionic beam to manipulate a planet's weather
patterns. Volz envisioned the ship as a climatizer, capable of altering the destructive forces of nature to make a world livable. He tested
the ship on Zerm, and it was a success. However, he came under Imperial scrutiny, and Captain Bzorn took control of the ship. Bzorn
used the ionic ring to destroy planets, turning their weather into stormy, devastating forces. The ring was recaptured by Luke
Skywalker, Han Solo, and Chewbacca at Kessel, but Volz decided that the ship was too dangerous. He destroyed it himself. (CSWEA)
Ionite
this mineral is considered quite valuable throughout the galaxy. Its unique characteristic is that it carries neither a positive nor a
negative charge. Instead, ionite carries an alternate charge that affects all charged particle fields around it. In the presence of a
positively-charged element, ionite carries a negative charge that negates the positive charge. The reverse is also true. Thus, in the
presence of ionite, any electrical device has its operations voided and becomes unusable. This is especially true to chronometers and
other timing devices. (DR)
Ionization Reactor
a shipboard component which converts solar energy from the surrounding space into useable starship fuel. (SCRE)
Ionstrike, Wonn
this crimelord worked from a base on Cloud City. He was an elderly man who was crippled in an accident and left paralyzed. He moved
about in a specially-designed wheelchair, and spent his entire career working to drive Jabba the Hutt out of business on Cloud City.
(GG2, GG12)
Iopene Princess
this starship, a Mining Guild cutter, was hijacked by EV-9D9 as she escaped from Cloud City. It was a state-of-the-art ship, equipped
with the newest hyperdrive motivators, sensor systems, and weapons. (TJP)
Iotek
manufacturers of starship ion power cells and ionization reactors. (XW)
Ioth
an alien Captain who worked as an Alliance Naval Supply analyst, Ioth was the individual who saw that the Empire was fortifying the
Oplovis fleet just prior to their planned attack on Mantooine. (RASB)
Iotra
this planet, the fifth in the Iotran System, is the temperate homeworld of the Iotran race. The Iotran year is slightly longer than the
galactic standard - fourteen Iotran years encompass nearly eighteen standard years. (GG12)
Iotran
a humanoid alien species of incredible strength, the Iotrans hail from the planet Iotra. They have three fingers and a strong thumb on
each hand, and two foretoes on each foot. At their elbows, shoulders, and hands are sturdy, bone-like spikes that help protect them
from attack. They are an extremely military race, letting their actions speak in place of words. Their culture and history are extremely
stable, a result of continued military dominance within the government. Many well-known galactic military orders grew out of Iotran
military nations; although these Iotran nations have since combined to for the Iotran Police Force, the orders themselves continue to
find new members througout the galaxy. Each Iotran citizen must serve in the IPF for six standard years at the age of 14 seasons
(about 18 standard years). Iotran technology is crude but reliable, but not up to galactic norms. They have assumed the use of
hyperdrives and weapons in order to further their military defenses. (RPG, GG12)
Iotran Expanse
this area of the galaxy contained the Iotran System, and bordered Hutt Space, the Karstaxon Regions, and Sulorine Sector. (SSR)
IPG-X1131 LongTail
this model of podracer, manufactured by Irdani Performance Group, had the longest engines of any podracer which was mass-
produced during the last decades of the Old Republic. Teemto Pagalies flew one of these racers. The cockpit of the LongTail measured
5.33 meters in length, while the engines were an immense 10.67 meters long. The LongTail could achieve speeds of 775 kilometers per
hour. (IG1)
Ipharian-Da'Lor
this was the name of a race of serpent-like beings, noted for their snake-like lower body. They moved about by slithering on their thick,
meter-long tails, while their forebody stood nearly three meters above the ground. They were vaguely humanoid from the torso up, with
muscular arms and an elongated face. A ridge of black spines ran from the back of their skull down to their tail, which ended with a
retractable spike. The Ipharian-Da’Lor often used masks to cover their faces, thereby hiding their identity. (WSV)
Iphigin
this temperate world is the home planet of the Iphigini race. (SOP)
Iphigini
this race of sentients is native to the planet Iphigin. They are easily recognized by their braided lip-beards, which sit at the bottom of a
craggy face. Their skin is quite wrinkled. (SOP)
Iponta
this Gutretee warrior was the strongest of the tribe which greeted offworlders to Isis. When the Alliance sent a group of operative to Isis
to keep the crew of the Wanderer from revealing its location, they had to survive combat with Iponta, in order to prove their trust and
honor. (IC)
IPV-1
following the success of the IR-3F, Seinar Fleet System produced this System Patrol Craft measuring 150 meters in length. Note that
Pirates and Privateers documents the length at just 120 meters. These fast, maneuverable craft are well-armed for intercepting
criminals along border regions where Star Destroyers are not present. They lack hyperdrives, and so they are restricted to patrolling
specific areas of space. They have been rated at a top speed of 80 MGLT, and have a crew compliment of 12 - four officers and eight
gunners. They had cargo capacity to transport up to 200 metric tons of supplies or equipment.
They have the following shipboard components:
- 4 Taim & Bak XV7 Turbolasers
- 1 Krupx VL-4a Warhead Launching System
- Front/Rear Projecting Novaldex Shields (150 SBD)
- Titanium Alloy Hull (60 RU)
(TIE, PP)
IPV/4
this was the latest in Seinar Fleet Systems' patrol craft, designed and built in the decade following the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn.
(VOF)
Iquar
this man was a member of the Karazak Slavers Cooperative team sent to capture Janissa Locrin. It was part of Seland' Ir's plans that
the entire strike team surrender after successfully recovering Locrin, thereby avoiding bloodshed. Most of the slavers were set free
because the studio she worked for paid off the ransom before charges could be brought up. He was eventually caught by New Republic
Sector Rangers, and forced to confess the plans. (GG11)
Iquazard
this species of large, boar-like reptile was native to the planet Gelgelar. Small iquazards were the favored prey of reeho birds. These
creatures had incredibly thick skin, and it was said that an iquazard could absorb a blaster bolt from near range. (SWJ14)
IR-3F
this was a model of systems patrol craft produced by Sienar Fleet Systems, and was the forerunner of the IPV-1 patrol vessel. At 110
meters in length, and armed with four turret-mounted turbolaser cannons, the IR-3F was capable of taking on capital-sized targets. It
was most often used as a blockade ship, with several other similar vessels forming a line. It had to be based in the system it patrolled,
however, since the basic design lacked a hyperdrive. The IR-3F required a crew of 3, with 8 gunners and up to 10 troops. It could
transport up to 180 metric tons of cargo and had a three-month supply of consumables. Despite the benefits of its impressive power-to-
mass ratio, the small crew tended to wear down quickly trying to maintain the ship on long patrols. (FOP, PP)
IR-5
this was the model number of Merr-Sonn's Intimidator blaster pistol. (ROE)
IRD
a small starfighter introduced by the Corporate Sector Authority. It is a fast craft when flown in outer space, but suffers greatly when
flown in a planet's atmosphere. The ship's name is derived from its mission profile: Interception, Reconnaissance, and Defense. It was
a combat-dedicated fighter measuring 8.5 meters in length, and armed with a pair of twin blaster cannons. It was designed for a single
pilot. (HSE, CSA)
IRD-A
this second-generation of the Corporate Sector Authority's Intercept/Reconnaissance/Defense starfighter solved the original design's
lack of performance in atmospheric flight. It measured 10 meters in length, and was armed with a twin blaster cannon and a concussion
missile tube. Like the original IRD, it was designed for a single pilot. (CSA)
Irden
one of the first tribes of Ugnaughts purchased by Ecclessis Figg for employment on Cloud City. (GG2, MTS)
Ir'khaim
dynast of the Noghri clan Kihm'bar, he was Thrawn's personal bodyguard before Rukh assumed the position. (DFR)
Irdani Performance Group
this conglomerate produced many parts for racing craft, from podracers to starships. They also developed and manufactured complete
racers, such as trhe IPG-X1131 LongTail. (IG1)
Ire Eleazari
this Ithorian exiled himself from his homeworld of Ithor in order to monitor the activities of the treacherous Oosea. Ire purchased an
asteroid in the Sil'Lume Asteroid Belt in order to monitor Oosea's dealings with Imperial Governor Parnell. Ire also became good friends
with the Tredways, and assisted Luke Skywalker in saving Dena Tredway after Parnell destroyed 24 Tredway. (JH)
Irenez
Irenez, like her counterpart Sena Midanyl, was a native Corellian with ties to Garm Bel Iblis. It was Bel Iblis who sponsored her
enrollment to the Academy. Following her graduation, Irenez opted to remain neutral in the war between Empire and Alliance, and
formed her own platoon of mercenaries and soldiers. When Bel Iblis put out feelers to retain the services of good soldiers, Irenez
immediately made her team available. She was placed in charge of the secret meetings with Tav Breil'lya, and was responsible for
detaining Han Solo and Lando Calrissian. (DFR, DFRSB)
Iri
this planet, located in the Epidimi System, was discovered some 5,000 years before the fall of the Old Republic. Republic scientists
discovered that the avian lifeforms living on Iri were genetically similar to those living on nearby Disim. They attempted to breed the
unique species, in hopes of creating a new form of life. The experiment was a success, but the resulting species - known as the Tarong
- was much more intelligent and eventually overran the two parent species. The original species no longer exist in the Epidimi System.
(GG12)
Iridium
this planet was known for its infamous space pirates. The pirates used special power gems to generate a disruptive aura that allowed
them to break through starship shields. Raskar held the last of the usable gems, until Han Solo and Chewbacca wrested it from him.

Iritsa
this city was located on the planet Chazwa. It was the site of one of the planet's larger spaceports. It was, in many respects, similar to
Mos Eisley on Tatooine, but it was much greener and nicer to live in. (ND)
Irol
this Imperial Sergeant was from a forested planet, where he learned how to fly a speeder bike. His balance and flying skills made him a
valuable, though cocky, member of the Imperial garrison on the forest moon of Endor, shortly before the Battle of Endor. (CCG10)
Iron Age

Iron Citadel
this vast building was once the seat of the Tetan government, until it was overtaken by Satal Keto and Aleema as the command center
for the Krath. It was located in Cinnagar, and was heavily armored and armed. (DLS)
Iron Fist
1) a elderly Victory-class Star Destroyer, it was Zsinj’s first command during his service to the Empire. It was in this ship that he learned
to use asteroids as weapons. He could draw an attacking force into an asteroid belt, then fire on the larger asteroids when the opponent
attacked. He knew that the opponent would use the larger asteroids for cover as they sneaked in to attack. Super-heated metals and
ores would be blasted into space, and acted like schrapnel to the opponent's fighters and taking them out more effectively than laser
fire. It was a tactic Zsinj would try to reuse at the Battle of Selaggis, but which was recognized by Myn Donos and thwarted. It later
served as part of Grand Admiral Thrawn's fleet. (DFRSB, IF, SOC)
2) Zsinj's flagship Super-class Star Destroyer, it was originally christened the Brawl, but was renamed in honor of his first command, the
Victory-class ship also called Iron Fist. It was pursued by Han Solo and the fleet supporting the Mon Remonda during the early years of
the New Republic, before Solo resigned his commission. In a series of battles at Kuat, Vahaba, and Selaggis, Solo nearly destroyed the
Iron Fist, but Zsinj always proved to be one step ahead. At Selaggis, Solo came the closest to killing Zsinj, but Zsinj used the Second
Death to flee with the Iron Fist intact. These events took place just prior to the Hapan delegation to Coruscant and Prince Isolder's
proposal of marriage to Leia. It was later destroyed at Dathomir by Solo's fleet. (CPL, SOC, CTD)
Iron Tower
located on the planet Aridus, this huge structure was built by the Empire to overcome the intense interference generated by the planet's
magnetic fluctuations. However, the intense frequency used by the Tower to overcome the interference caused massive neurological
damage to the native Chubbits. When Darth Vader tried to capture Luke Skywalker on the planet by having an actor pose as Obi-Wan
Kenobi, the Iron Tower was partially destroyed when Luke escaped from the trap. (CSW)
Ironhand
1) this Imperial Star Destroyer, under the command of Captain Argona, was one of only thirteen that remained in the Imperial Navy
some ten years after the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn. It was later assigned to accompany the Tyrannic and Obliterator to Bothawui,
where the three ships were cloaked from sensors and hidden among the comets that pass through the system. Once the battle was
joined, Han Solo managed to get many of the Bothan clans to supply warships from their personal fleets. The three Star Destroyers
were forced to retreat to Bastion or be slowly picked apart by the New Republic. Captain Nalgol gave the order to retreat, ending the
blockade and bringing to a close the Caamas Incident. (SOP, VOF)
2) this Trenchant-class cruiser was the personal ship of High Inquisitor Mox Slosin, during the height of the New Order. (AIR)

Irradiation Box
this form of containment unit was used by starship captains to ensure that equipment used on strange planets didn't bring back unusual
organisms. The irradiation box produced a series of broadband radiation and ultrasonic fields to kill off harmful bacteria and viruses
which may have attached themselves to the equipment. They were smaller, portable versions of irradiators. (PSG)
Irradiator
any device which emits certain forms of energy to kill certain viruses and organisms. They are often employed at spaceports, to make

Irregulars
this loose affiliation pirate and mercenary groups was extremely pro-Alliance in their stance during the Galactic Civil War. The groups
which made up the Irregulars were scattered across the galaxy, and harried the Empire's supply convoys in order to help the Alliance.
(SWCP)
Irrukiine
these huge, four-armed humanoids were native to the planet Malrev. The only true species with any sort of intelligence on the planet,
the Malrev were normally vicious hunters. They are covered with a pelt short, brown fur, and their panther-like faces are split by a
mouth full of sharp team. The mad Devaronian Cartariun used the Dark Side of the Force to control the Irrukiine, then put them through
a series of wargames by controlling them with just his Sith magic. In this way, he learned how to use them as a weapon, arming them
with Imperial blasters for ground assaults while using them to fly TIE Fighters in aerial combat. (XWRR)
Irrv
an Imperial General who commanded Maximillian Veers when he was a lieutenant. Irrv was sent to Culroon III to subjugate the simple
people living there, and nearly failed in this duty when the Culroon launched a surprise attack during an official ceremony. The battle
was turned the Empire's way when then-Lieutenant Veers disobeyed Irrv's direct order to remain confined to the base and attacked the
Culroon with AT-ATs. Irrv was irate with Veers, but never got a chance to court-marshall him, as this commanding officer, Commander
Grath, executed him on the spot for not seeing the Culroon charade. Grath then promoted Veers to Major. (SWSB)
Irugian Rainforest
this dense forest area is found on the planet Abbaji. It is the home of the hundred-meter-tall firethorn trees. (SE)
Isard, Armand
this man was the head of the Empire's Intelligence organization for many years, having rising through the ranks with the Old Republic.
Many who met him remarked on the somewhat inhuman gaze he had. Armand was known to a great deal of people for his ability to
ferret out and destroy a cell of Alliance supporters, whether they actually supported the Alliance or not. He was one of the first Imperial
officers alerted to the theft of the plans to the first Death Star, and dispatched his daughter, Ysanne, to Darkknell to retrieve them. His
hope was that she would be killed in the attempt, removing any possible threat to his position. Unfortunately, Ysanne survived the
mission, but failed to recover the datacards containing the plans. She also figured out why Armand sent her, and was so angry that she
implicated Armand in the original theft. She also implicated Armand in the bombing of the Treitamma Political Center, claiming that he
did it to kill Arrianya Bel Iblis so that Garm Bel Iblis would be free to join the Alliance. Ysanne then called in Imperial Security, and had
Armand arrested and executed for treason. (SOC, TFNR)
Isard, Ysanne
a native of Coruscant, Ysanne was born to Imperial service. She was the daughter of Emperor Palpatine's last Internal Security
Director. She later betrayed her father to Palpatine, claiming that he was going to defect to the Alliance. Palpatine had her father
executed - some say she was the person who shot him - and promoted her to his vacate position. She was later promoted to Director of
Imperial Intelligence, and held the Empire together during the years following Palpatine's death at Endor. She felt that Sate Pestage
was incapable of holding the Empire together, and began manipulating bureaucrats and military leaders - much as Palpatine had - in an
effort to turn them against Pestage. In the end, she was responsible for Pestage's outser from the Empire. Among certain members of
the New Republic and the Imperial remnants, she was known as Iceheart. She was characterized by long, black hair, but what made
her an imposing force was her eyes. One eye was a cold, ice-blue; the other was deep red with flame-like, golden highlights. She was
also responsible for the hiding of the Super-class Star Destroyer Lusankya in an unused facility under Imperial City on Coruscant, from
which she tortured and interrogated her prisoners in the infamous Lusankya prison facility. From Lusankya, she could monitor the
happenings on Coruscant without notice. She employed Kirtan Loor as a her agent, creating the Krytos virus and keeping him on
Coruscant as the leader of the Palpatine Counterinsurgency Force. Once the New Republic defeated the Krytos virus and fully liberated
Coruscant, she took the Lusankya and fled to Thyferra, where she took control of the planet's government. Once she entrenched
herself on Thyferra, she ousted the Zaltin corporation and planned to execute 1,000 Vratix a day until she had "downsized" bacta
production or Rogue Squadron surrendered to her. If either didn't happen in 30 days, she upped the number of Vratix executed to 2,000
per day. Erisi Dlarit suggested that the plan be implemented as a way to stop Ashern terrorism. In the meantime, Isard activated a
specially-made clone of herself, created just before she lost Thyferra, and allowed it to use her own contacts and resources to hide the
prisoners formerly hidden on the Lusankya. Once the clone returned to Thyferra, Isard had it executed. Isard continued to hold the
upper hand over the Rogues until she lost the Avarice to defection and the Virulence was captured at Yag'Dhul. Left with just the
Lusankya, Isard tried to make a stand at the Battle of Thyferra. However, that battle never turned in her favor, and she fled the planet
on Fliry Vorru's personal shuttle, Thyfonian. The shuttle was intercepted by Corran Horn and Tycho Celchu, whose combined attack
destroyed its shields and eradicated the craft with a proton torpedo. Isard was believed to have been killed in the explosion, but in fact
she wasn't on the shuttle at all. Her communications had been from a remote sight, and she smuggled herself off-planet disguised as a
refugee and went into hiding to recover from her losses. She made her way to General Arnothian's facility and took control of his TIE
Defender operation. Meanwhile, the clone Isard thought she had killed had allied itself with Prince-Admiral Krennel, and worked with
him to bring down Rogue Squadron and the New Republic by trying to re-open the division between human and non-human races. The
clone also kept a close watch on the prisoners of the Lusankya, collecting them all while Grand Admiral Thrawn ruled the Empire and
eventually using them as bait for a trap meant to catch Rogue Squadron. Their plans were thwarted by the real Ysanne Isard, who
rescued Rogue Squadron from Corvis Minor Five with the help of Colonel Vessery and convinced them to help her destroy the clone
and Krennel. While Krennel was killed in the space battle over Ciutric, Isard's clone tried to escape using the same tactic that the real
Isard used to escape from Thyferra. However, Wedge Antilles recognized the scheme and destroyed the shuttle - piloted by Colonel
Lorrir - while triangulating the clone's position by backtracking her communcations signal. He launched a pair of concussion missiles at
her location, destroying it and the clone. The real Isard claimed to want nothing but peace, but really wanted to regain command of the
Lusankya, which was being refitted at the Bilbringi shipyards. However, her motives were discovered by Booster Terrik, his daughter
Mirax, and Iella Wessiri, and a New Republic task force was dispatched to prevent her from stealing it. In a struggle within the huge
ship, Ysanne and Iella confronted each other. After Isard threw every taunt and tactic at Iella, Iella responded by shooting her dead,
once and for all. (XWN, WG, KT, BW, IR)

storms, which cause unpredictable reactions within the volatile gases the fill its upper levels. (SWJ8)
Isen
1) this gas giant is the only planet in the Isen System. It has six natural satellites, of which one - Isen IV - is inhabitted. The system is
still in its birth stage, and the primary star Isen continues to give off large amounts of radiation. This, coupled with the system's three
asteroid belts, makes navigation through the Isen System extremely difficult. (PG1)
2) this yellow star was the central body of the Isen System. (PG1)
Isen IV
this airless, rocky planetoid was the fourth of six moons orbiting the gas giant Isen. A small pirate base has been established on its

Ishanna V
this planet, the fifth in the Ishanna System, is an uninhabitable world with five natural satellites. Its mineral resources have been mined
by various independent corporations located on Rabaan. (SWJ9)
Ishi Tib
1) an amphibious, humanoid alien race characterized by their huge eyes and beak-like mouths, the Ishi Tib are native to the planet
Tibrin. They inhabit Tibrin's oceans, and spend most of their lives under the water. Their thick, green skin helps retain moisture, so they
are fairly adaptable in other environments. However, an Ishi Tib who lives away from the water must return to a briny seawater bath
every thirty hours or so in order to maintain their skin's moisture levels and to keep their lungs moist. The Ishi Tib race is descended
from a species of bony fish which had large, fluke-like fins which were highly developed. They escaped predation by leaving the ocean
and staying on land for short periods of time, and natural selection allowed the development of arms, legs, and lungs. They have builts
cities upon the coral reefs of Tibrin's oceans, taking great care so they don't disrupt the delicate environmental balances. As a species,
they were highly sought after as efficient organizers. (GG4, CCG7)
2) the name of one of Jabba the Hutt's henchman who was of the Ishi Tib race. (ROTJ)
Ishori
this race of sentients is native to the planet Isht, which was part of the New Republic. Shortly before the revelation of the Bothan
involvement in the destruction of Caamas, the Ishori were involved in a minor dispute with the Diamala over shipping security. The
Diamals didn’t trust the Ishori patrols that escorted their transports into Ishori ports, while the Ishoru didn’t want armed Diamala ships in
their systems. Han Solo and Luke Skywalker tried to mediate the dispute, but were unable to bring about a solution before the two
races polarized their hatred around the Caamas Incident. As a race, the Ishori are very excitable, and tend get agitated when
confronted. They also have a martial society, with many of their laws based on the tenets of battle. (SOP, VOF)

this freighter was owned an operated by Adriav Kavos. Kavos was forced to land the ship on the planet Joralla, during an attempt to sell
a datadisk containing secret information on the Alliance. It was armed with a pair of laser cannons, and could transport up to four
passengers and 100 metric tons of cargo. (PG1)
Isis
1) a crystalline planet, which was the site of an Alliance starfighter construction facility during the Galactic Civil War. The planet is the
homeworld of the Gutretee, a race of crystalline humanoids. It was located beyond the fringe of Imperial space, and wasfirst explored
by an Alderaanian scouting expedition. Bail Organa kept the planet's location a secret, fearing that Palpatine's growing wrath against
Old Republic supporters would require desparate measures. When his fears were realized, Organa began hiding the families of
prominent Republic supporters on Isis. The newcomers with met with gruff acceptance by most Gutretee, and a cooperation between
them grew into the starfighter facility. The planet itself is a huge world, covered with translucent mountains and refractive spires. It was
nearly discovered by Imperial forces when the crew of the Imperial survey vessel Wanderer crashed on the planet. They tried to escape
back to the Imperial base on Miser by hijacking the Handree, but were intercepted by Alliance agents. (RASB, IC)
2) this female Imperial Governor wanted Boba Fett to capture Feldrall Okor. When she balked at his price for capturing the pirate, Boba
Fett armed a thermal detonator and threatened to blow up her palace if she didn't comply. She eventually gave in, and paid Fett's price.

Isk
this ninth Aurebesh symbol, and it stood for the Basic letter "i". (IR, SWM)
Iskadrell
this is the primary planet in the Iskallon System, and the homeworld of the Iskalloni race. (TSK)
Iskalloni
little is known of this alien race, which hails from the Iskallon System. What is known is that they are a humanoid race that implants
cybernetic devices to assist their strange physiology. These impants are not perfect, and produce a toxic waste that is deadly to most
carbon-based lifeforms. This toxic waste is also found in their heavy machinery, including starships and hyperdrives. It is a perilous duty
for those Iskalloni which are charged with cleanging an Iskalloni hyperdrive. Most Iskalloni have hairless, blue-tinted skin, a result of the
addition of mutagen to their system. The mutagen allows the iskalloni to accept the bio-technical implants and survive. Their eyes are
deeply recessed in their skulls, and have dark, black irises.The Iskalloni remained apart from the rest of the galaxy for several millennia,
after several attempt s to establish peaceful relations fell through. During the height of the New Order, the Iskalloni returned to known
space, and made contact with Imperial agents. While the Empire thought it had gained a valuable ally, the Iskalloni showed no
preference in enslaving humans, taking the Imperial agents as well as Alliance personnel in their initial attacks. The Iskalloni sought to
enslave the entire human race, but couldn’t determine the best place to begin their assault. Eventually, with the help of Wertram
Farege, they captured a New Republic starship with the planetary coordinates of several major worlds, and launched their assault.
However, the crew of the starship was able to disable the Iskalloni ship and strand the aliens in theirown galaxy. (TSK, GG12)
Island Beast

huge body cavity which is inhabitable, and they are used by the Wind Raiders as living quarters. (SWAJ)
Ism Oolos
this Ho-Din physician worked for the New Republic at the medical facility in Bagsho, on the planet Nim Drovis. It was Ism Oolos that
treated the victims of the Corbantis crash, rescued from Damonite Yors B by Han Solo, Lando Calrissian, and Chewbacca. According to
Planet of Twilight, Ism Oolos is twenty-five meters tall! Oolos later worked with Mara Jade, in an effort to determine what disease was
making her ill during the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. Like most other scientists, Doctor Oolos was unable to find the
source of the disease. (POT, HT)
Ismaren, Irek
Roganda Ismaren's son by an unrevealed father, Irek's youthful abilities with the Force were augmented by his mother when she had
Nasdra Magrody implant an AI chip in his brain. This chip allowed Irek to become educated quicker, both from a practical standpoint as
well as with the Force. The subelectronic converter chip was placed in his brain at the age of 5. By age 7, he began formal training in
the Force. At 13, he could easily qualify for an advanced degree in a number of physical sciences, if he so chose. However, he had
been brought up this way for one purpose: to recover the derelict Eye of Palpatine. Roganda realized, from her association with
Palpatine, that only a mind capable of interfacing the Force with the ship would be able to reactivate it. So, she chose her own son to be
the instrument of her success. She hoped that his ability to control mechanical things with the Force would allow him to call the Eye to
Belsavis and control it. Irek's weakness, though, was that he could only control objects if he knew their basic schematics, which he
committed to memory. If the schematics were to change, even fundamentally, he couldn't manipulate an object. (COJ)
Ismaren, Lagan
one of Nichos Marr's childhood friends, they tried to find the kretch in Plett's Well. He was Roganda's brother. (COJ)
Ismaren, Roganda
one of Emperor Palpatine's concubines, Leia Organa Solo once saw her during her first Senatorial meeting. Later, on Belsavis, Leia
caught up with her in Plawal. She is somewhat Force-sensitive, and was one of the children in Plett's Well. Her Force-sensitivity earned
her a place as one of Palpatine's Emperor's Hands, much like Mara Jade. Roganda told Leia that she had been hiding on Belsavis for
seven years, fleeing the anti-Palpatine sentiments sweeping the galaxy. Leia recognized her pale, white skin and dark hair. All the
while, though, Roganda was hiding the plot to recover the Eye of Palpatine by having her son, Irek, implanted with a Force-augmenting
AI chip developed by Nasdra Magrody. Roganda's real reason for being on Belsavis was to hide her son's traingin from prying eyes.
Roganda used her Imperial contacts for funding, and assembled them on Belsavis, where the Eye was programmed to attack first.

Isolder
the younger son of the Hapan Queen Mother, Isolder held the title of Chume'da (which roughly translates to "Prince") at the time when
Leia Organa petitioned the Hapans for assistance in defeating Warlord Zsinj. He had been named Chume'da because his older brother,
Kalen, was murdered by a privateer named Harravan. It was later revealed that Kalen had been assassinated by their mother, Ta'a
Chume, in an effort to remove him from the line of succession. The blonde-haired Isolder caught a glimpse of Princess Leia when she
arrived on Hapes, and fell in love with her. He proposed to his mother that a marriage to her would help the Hapans prosper, and Ta'a
Chume pretended to agree. Isolder then arranged to go to Coruscant, where he proposed marriage. Leia stalled the marriage, and was
given more time to decide when Han Solo won Dathomir in a sabacc match. Han kidnapped Leia and took her to Dathomir, and Isolder
and Luke Skywalker followed to rescue her. While on Dathomir, Isolder met Teneniel Djo and realized that he loved her more than Leia.
He also learned of his mother's treacherous attempt to have Leia killed. In an effort to break the unsavory traditions he mother adhered
to, Isolder took Teneniel as his bride. Luke Skywalker had foreseen that he and Teneniel would give birth to a daughter who was strong
in the Force, a prophecy which was later fulfilled with the birth of Tenel Ka. When Ta'a Chume stepped down, Teneniel Djo became the
Queen Mother of Hapes, and Isolder became her king. The Hapans remained outside galactic politics for several years, until the
Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy. Then, Leia Organa-Solo again traveled to the Hapes Cluster in hopes of convincing the Hapans to
join the fight against the alien invaders. The Hapes Consortium was divided on whether to support the New Republic, until Isolder
slapped Beed Thane for insulting Leia. This led to an unusual duel in which the winner would control the vote. Thane was arrogant, and
Isolder was able to outlast him. The Hapes Cluster joined the New Republic in an effort to defeat the Yuuzhan Vong, and Isolder
himself led the fleet from the Song of War. However, as the combined fleet made to defend Corellia, it was discovered that the Yuuzhan
Vong were actually attacking Fondor. The fleet made emergency maneuvers to reach Fondor, but found the shipyards utterly
destroyed. The Hapans and the New Republic forces opened fire on the Yuuzhan Vong armada, but all hostilities were ceased when a
blast from Centerpoint Station ripped through the Fondor System. In addition to wiping out the Yuuzhan Vong, the blast decimated the
Hapan fleet. Isolder and his crew aboard the Song of War were just outside the blast, and survived to limp back to the Hapes Cluster.

Ison Corridor
a backwater group of planets in which Mara Jade posed as a hyperdrive mechanic. The Corridor begins with the Bespin System, and
travels along the straight line formed by Anoat, Hoth, and Ison Systems. It takes about fourteen hours to jump between each of these
systems along the Corridor. It was located near the Corellian Trade Spine, a much more profitable and understood hyperspace pathway
which drew much of the Corridor's potential traffic. (DFR, GG2, SWAJ)

Isoto, Lon
this Imperial Admiral was regarded as a traitor for his part in the Battle of Brentaal. He was known to both the Empire he served the
New Republic he opposed as an ineffectual leader, often called "Isoto the Indecisive" in closed quarters, but rose to power through the
support of the members of the Cabal. Isoto was more interested in his pleasure than the Empire, and used his position to obtain the
things he desired most. He was in command of the Imperial base near Vuultin at the time of Emperor Palpatine's death at Endor, and
was allowed to remain in command of the base when Sate Pestage rose to power. Ysanne Isard and Pestage planned to draw the New
Republic's forces to Brentaal IV, hoping to prove the Cabal was unable to control the moon, let alone the Empire. Meanwhile, Isoto
languished in his fortress, surrounded by women and - if rumors were true - enjoying glitterstim spice. He was shot and killed by one of
his concubines, shortly after being order by Ysanne Isard to evacuate Brentaal. The concubine was actually working for Isard as part of
Project Ambition. (XWES, IR, HXW)

Issor
this Outer Rim waterworld is the homeworld of the Issori and Odenji races. It is a prosperous world of high technology and commerce
located in the Trulalis System. (SWJ13)
Issori
this friendly alien race is native to the planet Issor. They have green-scaled skin and a docile though unemotional nature, and are not
generally outgoing. They rarely leave the oceans of Issor, as the planet had very little landmass. However, they developed an advanced
technology that helped them and their cousins, the Odenji, colonize many of their neighboring planets. Several centuries before the
Battle of Yavin, the Odenji were nearly wiped out by the melanncho, a disease which had little effect on the Issori. The females of the
species produce eggs, which they tend to until they hatch. The eggs are fertilized through the use of a sperm packet produced by the
males. Each young Issori is placed into a certain caste upon its birth, depending on its parents. The caste of the newborn Issori is the
same as that of the egg-laying female. The caste of the male fertilizer determines the newborn's position within its caste and the family
and political alliances it shares. Eggs are often shared among members of the noble castes from distant nations in arranged
ceremonies, to provide deeper alliances and maintain genetic diversity. Nobles may breed with common caste members, but only from
the same nation. Issori names reflect their breeding, and have three parts. The first part is based on the father's side of the family, and
indicate what type of a union the child comes from. The second name is generally that of the child's mother's family. The last name is a
unique name given to the offspring. Both the first and third names are determined using a formula in order to give the most auspicious
numerical values to the letters of the offspring's name. (SWJ13, IR)
Issori Blowfish
this snouts of this delicate fish were often deep-fried and served as a garnish for poultry and other white meats. (SWJ12)
Istic II
this was the primary planet in the Istic System. It orbited a young yellow-white star that bombarded the planet with heavy radiation.
(TBSB)
Istician
classified by the Empire as subsentient, these creatures were native to the radiation-shrouded planet of Istic II. Because of the high
levels of radiation in the environment, isticians suffered from frequent genetic mutation, and had a variety of shapes, sizes, and
coloration.s. The Imperial governor of the system welcomed hunters to take as many isticians as they could, since they were
considered a nuisance to the human settlers. (TBSB)
Isttu
this Ithorian city is located on the herdship Bazaar. It is the site of the Great Mother River Hotel, and is located on the banks of the Isttu
Lake. It houses many wonderful shops and businesses. It perfectly recreates the illusion of a jungle village, until one looks up to see the
dome that protects Isttu village from the vacuum of space. (GA)
Isttu Lake
this body of water was maintained within the Dome of Mother Jungle on the Ithorian herdship Bazaar. (GA)
Istuvi, Dif
this man led the Bakuran faithful who embraced the Cosmic Balance during the planet's early history. He is generally credited with

Ithmir
this Gamorrean ran the Thorip Norr cantina, located in Lola Curich on Lianna. (ML)
Ithor
homeworld of the Ithorians and fourth world in the Ottega System (sometimes called the Ithorian System), it was a world blockaded by
the Empire during Palpatine's reign. When the Ithorians gave the Empire certain agricultural and cloning information, the Empire left
them alone. Now, it is a tourist destination. The natives prefer to leave their environment as natural as possible, and have constructed
huge, floating cities. It is located in the Ottega Sector in the Lesser Plooriod Cluster, in the Calaron Sector, and has many natural
satellites. In what became known as the Battle of Ithor, all life on the planet was destroyed by a bacteria-filled bioweapon constructed
by the Yuuzhan Vong. After Shedao Shai was killed on the planet's surface, Deign Lian unleashed the bacteria, which consumed all
plant and animal life on Ithor's surface. The attack was meant to destroy the bafforr trees specifically, but the Yuuzhan Vong didn't care
about any collateral damage. Adding insult to injury, the destruction of the Legacy of Torment by New Republic warships left the
Yuuzhan Vong grand cruiser without drive systems. It crashed into the surface of Ithor, igniting the bacteria-filled slime and creating a
series of planet-sweeping fires. Ithor burned like a star for several days before dying out, hanging in space like a dead cinder. Because
of his part in Shedao Shai's death, Corran Horn was quickly targeted by the news agencies as "the man who destroyed Ithor." (SWSB,
MTS, DA, REB, DTR)
Ithor Lady
this New Republic battle cruiser was stationed at Cybloc XII until it was dispatched to quell a pirate uprising near Budpock. The ship
was drawn away from the planet of Nam Chorios by the manipulations of Seti Ashgad and Dzym. (POT)

Wild Kaarde, during Kaarde's search for Jorj Car'das. (VOF)
Ithorian
strange looking natives of Ithor, these creatures' heads appear to have been stretched and bent like a ladle. The eyes are set at
opposite sides of the hammer-shaped top portion of the head, and their mouths are hidden below on the sloping part of the head. They
have wide, flat feet designed to keep their balance. They also have two throats, and this biological phenomenon makes them hard to
understand. This caused them a great deal of pain when the Empire discovered their planet, for the Imperial xenophobia was
heightened by their inability to communicate. (SW, DA, SWSB)
Ithorian Delicacies
this food stand, located near Lake Isttu on the Ithorian herdship Bazaar, served up a wide range of vegatarian meals favored by
Ithorians. While much of the food was edible to other races, it wasn't generally palatable. (GA)

a race native to the planet Ithull, they were wiped out by the Mandalorians a few hundred years before the Galactic Civil War. (TME)
Ithullian Ore-Hauler
this huge starship was formed from the carapace of a dead Colossus Wasp by the Ithullans. Used some four millennia before the Battle
of Endor, these Ore-Haulers measured overa a kilometer in length, and required a crew of 15 to operate. 14 gunners manned the
weapons emplacements which protected the ship and its cargo. The general configuration was to have a pair of front-mounted heavy
turbolasers supported by twelve defensive blasters. These unusual ships were equipped with slow hyperdrives, in an effort to provide
them with supralight speeds that wouldn't destroy the Wasp carcass. (TOJC)
ITO-9
this interrogation droid was abandoned when its starship was destroyed in space. It became what is commonly known as a void droid,
and patrolled the Paradise System Junkyards. (SH)

Tower to rubble, capturing Vader in the collapse and giving Luke time to flee Aridus. (CSW)
Ivpikkis
this Ssi-ruuvi Admiral was the military commander of the task force sent to subjugate the planet Bakura. He was one of the few Ssi-ruuk
at Bakura with real military experience, having been a soldier and scout before being promoted to officer status. It was Ivpikkis who
captured Imperial troops and suggested that the Ssi-ruuk should use the Empire to extend their control. It was believed that Admiral
Ivpikkis managed to escape the destruction of the Ssi-ruuvi fleet during the Battle of Bakura. (TB, TBSB)
Ivrooy Coral
this form of coral is well-known among the rich and powerful for its ability to be cultured and grown into strong, durable pieces of

this New Republic Intelligence ferret ship was sent to trail the Teljkon vagabond near Gmar Askilon, just before the Yevethan Great
Purge. (BTS)
Ixidro Legorburu
this M'haeli served as an officer in the New Republic Intelligence agency. He was Pakkpekatt's tactical aide during the search for the
Teljkon vagabond at Gmir Askilon. As he rose through the ranks, Legorburu eventually earned the rank of Colonel with the New
Republic's Defense Force. He was chosen to be the director of the Home Fleet's Battle Assessment Division, and was one of the
primary statisticians during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. (SOL, HT)
Ixll
a small, flying creature native to Da Soocha 5. They have a fair amount of intelligence, and are talented toolmakers. They have been
expanding their native technology, and know a great deal about computers, repulsorlifts, and starship engines. When the New Republic
chose the Pinnacle Moon for a base, the Ixlls welcomed the humans with a curious reservation. The two groups studied each other, and
were able to achieve a working relationship. The Ixlls have even learned to use their normal language, which consists of various chirps,
clicks, and whistles, to communicate with R2 astromech droids. (DE1, DESB)
Ixsthmus
this Ithorian is the captain of the transport ship, the Long Shot. He is considered quite handsome, for an Ithorian. He is stern, intelligent,
and possesses absolutely no sense of humor. He was a strong supporter of the Alliance, and helped them out whenever he could.
However, if a mission put the Long Shot in jeopardy, Ixsthmus would almost always back out. He relies on his co-pilot, Siene Symm, to
perform any underhanded or sneaky dealings with customers, because Ixsthmus is also very honorable. (SWCP)
Ixtlar
this planet has a large number of holographic advertising signs scattered across its surface. It creates a dazzling nighttime vista. (CSA)
Ixxus Cranata
this Ithorian is one of the greatest storytellers of his race. His tales of Ithorian history are vibrant and captivating, and have been

Iych-thae
this fanatical Ithorian commanded the shepherd ship Varnay during the height of the Galactic Civil War. He held strongly to the
ecological and environmental beliefs of his people, and traveled to Elrood Sector to preach his message to the peoples there. Iych-thae
protested vehemently on the abuses Radell Mining Corporation enacted on the planet Dega, which was abandoned as a barren ball of
rock after Radell's mines ran dry. Iych-thae was instrumental in the negotiations between Radell and the Anguilla of Alluuvia, and
eventually agreed to act as an independent overseer to Radell's future mining operations. (OE)
Iyon
the Codru-Ji Chamberlain assigned to Princess Leia during her stay on Munto Codru. The inherent political infighting among the
Codru-Ji did not reach a concensus on his qualifications, so Iyon's appointment to the post was a hard-fought battle. Iyon has a young
child, still in the pupal wyrwulf stage, when Princess Leia arrives on the planet. When the Solo children are kidnapped by Hethrir, Iyon's
child is also taken. The child was very near its metamorphosis stage, and cocoons itself just before returning to Munto Codru. (CS)
Iyra
a race of tentacled cephalopods native to the planet F'tral, these sentient ocean-dwellers have developed vast underwater cities.
Averaging a meter in diameter, the Iyra have a large mouth on their ventral side and several eyestalks on the dorsal side. For each
tentacle an Iyra has, there is usually one eyestalk. As an Iyra matures, it grows more tentacles and eyestalks. They have an impressive
technology, creating corrosion-resistant materials as well as gravitic and inertial devices for starships. They have established a caste
system dependant upon the number of tentacles and eyestalks an individual has, thereby guaranteeing that each individual will
continually improve their position in life. The more tentacles, the higher their position in society. Thus, they are very contempuous of
humanoid and other legged alien races. They are able to survive outside the oceans of F'tral by filling starship cabins with a mixture of
gases and water vapor that keep their skin moist and maintain chemical balances. (GG4)
Iyred
this planet was once covered with tropical forests, and was the native world of the black bha'lir. However, deforestation and
construction threatened the population of black bha'lir. The Society of the Black Bha'lir eventually led several missions to rescue the

help of Reekeene's Roughnecks, and successfully knocked out the communications center, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. (SWCP)
Iziz
a major city on Onderon, and the city where Freedon Nadd held court following his seduction by the Dark Side. It was walled by the
inhabitants in command, to separate themselves from the Dxun beasts that descended on the planet when the Dxun moon orbitted
close. The city itself sits on a low mountain within the walls. The walls contained several thousand square miles of territory, and
reached several miles into the planet's crust. (TOJ, FNU, DLS)
Izrina

Izzat
this Twi'lek was a member of the Society of the Black Bha'lir, but was also something of a traitor. He was known to have turned no less
than twelve of his fellow Black Bha'lir members - including Kaine Paulsen - to the local and Imperial authorities. When Drake Paulsen
learned of Izzat's treachery, he hunted the Twi'lek down and killed him, ostensibly invoking the Rite of Retribution. What Drake didn't
know was that Izzat was working for the Empire at the time. The Empire put out a bounty on Paulsen and his partner, Nikaede Celso,
but it was never claimed. (BSS)

former lovers, and the two of them staged a falling out to gain Jabba's attention. Jabba, in turn, employed him in order to gall Valarian.
Valarian and J'Quille had arranged their break-up, and J'Quille became a spy. She had J'Quille arrange to meet Malakili and the rancor,
in order to steal them out from under Jabba's nose. J'Quille was also responsible for bribing Phlegmin to lace Jabba's paddy toads with
a slow-acting poison. In his rooms, J'Quille kept a strand of poisoned Mastmot teeth as a decoration, hoping someday to use them
against Jabba. He never got the chance, because Jabba was killed at the Pit of Carkoon. When he fled Tatooine and tried to return to
Toola, he found that Valarian had put a price on his head for "rejecting" her. J'Quille returned to Jabba's palace and became a B'omarr
acolyte, claiming that having his brain removed to a nutrient jar was the only way to escape Tatooine's heat. (TJP)

New Republic’s astrogation catalog as FAR202019S, and was known to other as Doornik-628. The name of the planet is derived from a
series of H'Kig glyphs which describe basic elements of the H'kig religion. The first three are too sacred to write out - jeh teh peh - and
form the "J't'p'" portion of the name. The last piece - tan - not so sacred. The Yevetha wiped out the H’kig settlement on the planet,

try and get to it first, but becomes involved in the deeper plots surrounding the Queen. J'uoch is killed when the Guardian Corp of

craft. However, Zonama Sekot came under attack by Wilhuff Tarkin at the time the Jabitha was shaped, and Anakin and Obi-Wan were
unable to fully integrate themelves with the ship. The Jabitha fell sick, and when Zonama Sekot disappeared into hyperspace to escape
Tarkin's assault, the Jabitha died on the planet Seline. (RP)

Jari'kyn
this young Twi'leki female worked as a fashion designer for the House of Vanar. She was fired when Mara Jade rejected the wedding
gown design submitted by Vanar, despite the fact that Vanar had done most of the design himself. Mara encountered her in a lower
level of Coruscant’s Imperial City, and realized that Jari’kyn had nothing to do with the skimpy outfit Vanar had submitted. Mara hired
Jari’kyn on the spot, asking her to design not only the wedding dress but the bridesmaids’ dresses as well. Jari’kyn agreed to the
proposal, and set to work on the dresses. As she was delivering them to the wedding chapel, Jari’kyn was ambushed by Anlys Takkar
and her escorts. Among the escorts was Banner Sumptor, who balked when Anlys ordered him to kill Jari’kyn so that they could steal
the dress and disrupt the wedding. Banner refused to follow the order, and shot the rest of the escort. Jari’kyn grabbed a thick piece of
pipe and whacked Anlys on the head, rendering her unconscious. Banner then helped Jari’kyn get the dresses to the church in time for
the wedding. (U)

Jarn, Grison
this weathered old man was a farmer on a planet which was caught between the Empire and the Alliance. The Alliance confiscated his
gravtrac, giving him a datachip with which to claim it. The Empire defeated the Alliance, claiming the gravtrac was captured for its own
use. Imperial forces also conscripted his son, and usurped Jarn's farm as an observation post. Shortly after the farm was destroyed in a
brief struggle, Jarn was approached by two thugs from Jorrn Kresh's organization, who told the old man that he had to pay "protection
money." After all that he had been through, Jarn just laughed in their faces. (GG11)
Jarnek, Harlov
this Imperial Moff controlled Tandor Sector during the Galactic Civil War. He kept a pet with him at all times, an interested creature that
both amazed and frightened his acquaintences. Unknown to Jarnek - who believed that anything that wasn't human was surely not

Jarril
this former smuggling acquaintence of Han Solo plied the Smuggler’s Run during the years after the collapse of the Empire. It was Jarril
who smuggled Lando Calrissian out of the Run after Calrissian stole a great deal of treasure from Nandreeson. He became mixed up in
Dolph’s plans to use the Run to transport his remote detonation droids to Coruscant, and starting seeing his fellow smugglers
disappear. They made a great deal of money before becoming lost, and Jarril himself went to Coruscant to track down Han. Jarril
hoped that Han would unofficially investigate the circumstances, and met him in the Crystal Jewel. Han initially declined the offer, and
during their talks Dolph’s droids exploded in the Senate Assembly Chamber. Han left to see what had happened, and Jarril returned to
his ship. His co-pilot, Seluss, was nowhere to be found, so Jarril began his pre-flight preparations. Some of Dolph’s men intercepted
him, and took over his ship, the Spicy Lady. They shot Jarril and killed him, leaving him adrift. They also left incriminating messages in
the Spicy Lady’s computer banks, implicating Han in the Senate Chamber bombing. (TNR)

Jart Eyan
this Twi'lek served the New Republic as a Navy Lieutenant and aide to Admiral Ackbar during the early years of the New Republic.
Eyan was also the first of Warlord Zsinj's subjects in Project Minefield, which involved brainwashing non-human species and implanting
a code phrase to trigger a response. The code phrase involved a keyword and a name. When the keyword was spoken, the
brainwashing would kick in, compelling the subject to kill the person named in the phrase. Eyan's target was Ackbar himself, and he
nearly succeeded during a briefing of the forces hunting Warlord Zsinj aboard the Home One. Voort saBinring got in between Eyan and
Ackbar, and took the shots meant for Ackbar. Eyan was unprepared for the Gamorrean's ability to withstand blaster fire, and was
caught unaware when Voort smashed his head into the nearest wall. Eyan died of massive skull injuries before he could be questioned.

Jassa, Mroon
this ancient Jedi Master established a training center on Truuine, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. It was on Truuine that
Kith Kark tried to convince Master Jassa that he was ready to being the Jedi training. Jassa ignored the Gotal twice, because Kith Kark
only wanted to learn the Force as a hobby or task, not because the Force called him. Nearly a year after his first visit, Kith Kark
returned to Truuine a third time. He had finally discovered that the Force wasn't something you just obtained, but was something that
had to be felt and and obeyed. Jassa understood that Kith Kark had finally been touched by the Force, and agreed to train him. (TOJC)

Javis-12
this asteroid is one of the largest in the Mestra System asteroid field, located in the Minos Cluster. It is roughly egg-shaped, and
measures about 400 kilometers at its widest point. The asteroid no longer revolves around its axis, thanks to specially-placed repulsors.
This keeps the main living areas on the far side of the asteroid, away from the rest of the asteroid belt. This protects the living areas
from asteroid and meteorite hits. Javis-12 orbits the Mestra System’s star once every 611 local days. The Minos-Mestra Corporation’s
local headquarters were located on this asteroid, and the system’s only starport is located here. The starport is a conglomerate of
domes and caves ranging across and below the surface of the asteroid. (GG6)
Jawa
diminutive desert-dwelling scrap merchants on Tatooine, these repulsive little creatures have large, glowing eyes which peer out from
dirty cloaks. They have a randomly variable language, which makes it hard to interpret what they say. They are inherently cowards.
Very few have ever seen what a Jawa looks like under their cloaks. They are pack animals, working together in small bands to collect
anything and everything for resale to all buyers. It is believed by some xenologists that Jawas have human origins. Their normal body

after the Battle of Endor, Catch was given the R2-Delta upgrade. (BW, DTO)
Jax
this human Freelie was one of the band that captured C-3PO, R2-D2, Luke Skywalker, and Leia Organa on Vorzyd 5. (CSWEA)
Jax, Carnor
this former Royal Imperial Guard was a member of the training class the produced Kir Kanos. Jax often bested Kir Kanos in the training
battles fought in The Squall, and defeated Alum Frost in a fight to the death on Yinchorr. The battle was staged by Emperor Palpatine
himself, meant to determine the more loyal warrior. In the wake of Palpatine's death at Endor, Jax began to envision himself as a new
Dark Lord and ruler of the Empire. He established a power base, and bribed one of Palpatine's primary clone scientists into creating
defective clones for the Emperor. Jax then began wearing a suit of armor which was a modified version of the Royal Guards' armor,
with a black faceplate and cloak. When Palpatine's clones were destroyed at Byss, he made his bid for control of the Empire by
creating the Imperial Interim Ruling Council and assuming its leadership. He also set out to exterminate the remaining Royal Imperial
Guards, but Kir Kanos managed to escape and took with him the secret of Jax's treason. Jax learned of Kanos' survival, and knew that
he would have to eliminate the threat he posed. When Kanos was discovered on Phaeda, Jax ordered Colonel Shev to stand down and
let his own forces deal with Kanos, but Shev ignored the orders. In the end, Kanos was able to escape to the planet Yinchorr. Jax
pursued him, but was unable to stop General Wessel from falling for another of Kanos' tricks. Jax fled the Emperor's Revenge with Blim
and a squadron of hand-picked, black-armored stormtroopers, landing on Yinchorr to hunt down Kanor. The entire squadron of troopers
was eliminated by Kanos, leaving Jax to face him in one-on-one combat. They met in The Squall, where Jax had defeated Kanos
during their training. Jax made sure he had all of Kanos' escapes covered, including the placement of Blim in a nearby position to shoot
Kanos if the other man got an advantage. After Blim was eliminated by Mirith Sinn and Sish Sadeet, Jax nearly defeated Kir Kanos.
However, the other man was too strong for Jax. In a short duel, Kanos drove the blade of his staff through Jax's breastplate, piercing
his heart and killing him instantly. (CE)

less intact. (SWCP)
Jayme, Ivhin
this man grew up with parents who had a hands-off approach to raising him. This taught him to be open-minded about things, but he
was never instilled with any drive or determination. At the age of 16, he lied about his age and joined the Imperial Armed Forces, and
within a few short months he had been trained into a dangerous and formidable urban commando by the instructors on Merikon. After
following the orders of his superiors and destroying a building, Jayme learned that there had been children inside, as well as enemy
soldiers. He couldn't reconcile this indiscriminate loss of life, and went AWOL. He found himself drifting until he ended up on Rodaj,
where he met T'Charek Haathi. She convinced him to join the Alliance, and Jayme was initially recruited into the Alliance's urban
commando team. However, he balked at several missions and was moved to the Special Operations team, where he was reunited with
Haathi as a shipjacker. (SWJ13, SWJ14)
Jazbina
this world was known for its luxurious aromatic baths and its valuable sun crystals. Luke Skywalker was sent to Jazbina shortly after the

this race was native to the planet Almania, and were much more powerful than the humans which shared the world. Despite their war-
like nature, the Je’Har built magnificent cities. Both races supported the Old Republic, and resisted the onslaught of the Empire before
pledging allegiance to the New Republic. However, shortly after the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn, the Je’Har began to assert their
dominance over their human neighbors. They held the humans at bay, even enslaving them and torturing them as their whim saw fit.
There were even reports of wholesale slaughter during the YevethanPurge. One survivor of the Je’Har domination was Dolph, who
became somewhat gifted in the use of the Force and saw a way to overthrown the Je’Har. Using his remotely-activated droid bombs,
Dolph wiped out the Je’Har, although he spared their leaders. He tortured them for a week, avenging the week of suffering they put his
parents through. (TNR)

Jedi Holocron
known originally as a holographic chronicle, this was a recording device used by the ancient Jedi Knights to hold the multitude of
teachings and lore needed to maintain the Jedi Knights. Each of these devices provides a visual and vocal way to view the enclosed
information. Each holocron has a gatekeeper assigned to dispense the information. The gatekeeper contains the cognitive network
functions of a Jedi Master, and acts as a search, recovery, and storage allocation program. The devices are shaped like small,
translucent cubes, and can be activated by a person controlling The Force. The Holocron can sense the user's ability with the Force,
and can block out areas of knowledge that are beyond the user's ability. Despite the name, these holocrons were not limited to the Jedi
Knights. Several holocrons containing Sith lore have been discovered as well. (DE1, JS, DA, IJ, SWJ14)
Jedi Knights
the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice from the early beginnings of the Old Republic. They were highly trained in the
use of the Force, and employed the elegant lightsaber as their weapon of choice. They protected the Republic from all threats, including
the Clone Wars. They were also used to settle disputes and contentions for rulership due to their overall neutrality and their ability to
search out the truth via the Force. When Senator Palpatine assumed the throne of galactic Emperor, he realized that the Jedi Knights
were the only true faction that could stand between himself and the galaxy, and so he dispatched a series of extermination forces to
eradicate the Jedi. He nearly succeeded, for the only Jedi known to have survived were Darth Vader, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and the Jedi
Master Yoda. (SW, ESB, ROTJ)
Jedi Library
located in the Lost City of the Jedi, this building holds records of the Jedi from thousands of years before the Galactic Civil War. It

those Jedi Knights who became extremely talented and powerful in the use of the Force were often trained to become Jedi Masters.
The Jedi Masters' roles were varied, from teaching the young Jedi Knights in the use of The Force to acting as intermediaries for the
Old Republic. The Jedi Masters were not exempt from Palpatine's Jedi purge, and the Jedi Master Yoda is the only known Master to
survive. Yoda was able to pass on his vast knowledge of the Force to Luke Skywalker, who continued to train in the use of the Force
after Yoda's death and become the newest Jedi Master. It is rumored that the best and truest Jedi Masters do not truly die, but move on
to some mystical state of being. Their physical bodies cease to exist. (ESB, ROTJ, JS)

Jedi Temple
located in the former Galactic City, on the planet Coruscant, this complex of spires and buildings was the base of operations for the Jedi
Knights. The central Temple Spire rose a kilometer above the surrounding cityscape, and was surrounded by four individual Council
towers. All five towers were supported by the main building, which sunk its roots deep into Coruscant’s crust. The ziggurat shape of the
main building, coupled with the five spires, was meant to symbolize a padawans path to enlightment through the Force. There were
several contemplation stations located on each of the four smaller towers, where a Jedi could go be alone with their thoughts. (IWE1)

and Luke Skywalker, and perished in the Imperial assault on his clan's sandcrawler. (TME)
Jelasi
this Hutt was one of Kumac's main rivals, both during Jabba's leadership of the Hutt crime empire and after Jabba's death. Many inside
Jabba's organization believed Jelasi was Jabba's chosen successor. In the wake of Jabba's death, Jelasi assumed control of the
Ig'zxyck Flare organization and began to "legitimize" Hutt criminal activities. This earned him the ire of many Hutts, including Kumac,
during the early years of the New Republic. Jelasi earned the business of much of the Imperial remnant during this time, as the Empire
tried to maintain a low-key approach to regaining power. (GG11)

Jellyfish Cove
this small planetoid was the site of an Imperial prison colony during the Galactic Civil War. It was covered with rolling oceans broken by
a barren, twisted landscape. The deserts were littered with statues of sensuous humanoids. When the sun was shining, these statues
were beautiful to behold. When the sunlight disappeared, though, these statues suddenly came to life. They were actually a race
composed of unique tissue that solidified in sunlight. The prison colony was scantily manned, for the Imperials were just as susceptible
to the humanoids as the prisoners. Thus, many times the Empire employed smugglers or down-on-their-luck spacers to guard the
outpost. The prison ships made sure to deliver their cargos during the day, so as to avoid the humanoids. (TMEC)
Jelon
this Imperial Navy Commander served as Admiral Greelanx’s second-in-command during the Battle of Nar Shaddaa. (THG)
Jem
the Ysanna girl encountered By Luke Skywalker and Kam Solusar when they arrive on Ossus, Jem was in the middle of a ritual with her
brother, Rayf, in which they were tied to the tree-like form of the ancient Jedi Master Ood Bnar. She was 23 years old when Luke first
met her. Like all other Ysanna, Jem was strong with the Force, and chose to leave Ossus and become one of Luke's first students. She
also became one of Luke's brief loves, until she was killed on New Alderaan by Tedryn-sha. (DE2)
Jemba
this Hutt was placed in charge of Offworld Mining Company’s operations on the planet Bandomeer. As ruthless as any other Hutt,
Jemba relied on slave labor and sabotage of his competitor’s operations to remain at the top of heap. Among the rumors that
surrounded Jemba was the story that he destroyed a rival’s atmospheric containment system at a mining outpost on the planet
Varristad, killing over a quarter of a million beings and ensuring a huge profit for Offworld. During a regular run to collect guards and
slaces for use in the mines of Bandomeer, Jemba and his lieutenant Grelb were caught aboard the transport barge Monument when it
came under attack by pirates. They had been pestered by the investigations of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Si Treemba, and after being forced
to land on an uncharted world, Jemba vowed to eliminate the Jedi and reclaim his workers. However, while trying to kill Qui-Gon Jinn
and starve the Arconan workers of his competitors, Jemba’s camp was attacked by draigons. Grelb tried to shoot young Obi-Wan, who
was fighting off the draigons, but managed instead to hit Jemba. The blasts from Grelb’s gun pierced Jemba’s hearts, killing him
instantly and rendering his efforts to naught. (RF)

Jenet
native to the planet Garban, these aliens have pale pink skin, deep red eyes, and white fur. By almost every galactic standard, the
Jenets are considered ugly and quarrelsome. Jenets have large ears and noses, and have developed keen senses of hearing, smell,
and sight. These senses allow them to gather food, and their digestive system is adaptable enough to allow them to eat just about
anything. Thus, they are often found scavenging for food rather than hunting for it. The Jenet race is also physically adept, and can run,
jump, climb, and swim when needed. Jenets can also dislocate their limbs in order to squeeze into small spaces. Descended from
rodents, they have vast memories, and are often considered quarrelsome due to their images of own self-importance. They are also
extremely reproductive, and nearly wiped themselves out of existence due to overpopulation. They were not immune to Palpatine's
subjugation of alien species during his reign as Emperor, and were forced to work in mines dug on their homeworld. (GG4)
Jengus

Jensaarai
this was the name used by the Force-weilding population of Suarbi 7/5. They were trained as Jedi, and even taught how to create their
own lightsabers, but were taught that Obi-Wan Kenobi was one of the greatest users of the Dark Side of the Force. There are three
ranks of Jensaarai: Apprentices, Defenders, and Saarai-kaar. When they became Defenders, the Jensaarai created a unique form of
personal armor created from cortosis ore and modeled to make them appear to be a vicious creature. Of the Saarai-kaar, there was
only one member of that rank at any one point in time. When Leonia Tavira suddenly landed on the moon and executed its Imperial
governor, thereby "freeing" them from Imperial control, the Jensaarai quickly grew to trust her. She betrayed that trust, and twisted them
into a position in which the only way they could protect their people was to serve as her personal warriors. They were forced to accede,
and joined her aboard the Invidious. She also told them that there was a being named Halcyon who would be their undoing, so she
forced them to kidnap Mirax Terrik in order to draw Corran Horn to Suarbi 7/5. When they all met in battle, Luke Skywalker made quick
work of the Jensaarai while Corran battled the Saarai-kaar. He did not kill them, though, a fact which surprised most of them when they
came aroubd after the battle. It was later revealed that the word Jensaarai is a Sith term that means "hidden followers of truth." The last
of the true Jensaarai Sith magicians died with Nikkos Tyris, but the new Saarai-kaar continued to train her young son and the other
survivors in the ways of the Force. In a strange twist of fate, she taught them that the Jedi Knights were evil, but she also taught them
the use of the light side of the Force, since she lacked the ability and education to comprehend the Sith treachings. Thus, when
Emperor Palpatine's Jedi purge sent Darth Vader to Suarbi 7/5, Vader killed the Saarai-kaar's son because he felt only the light side
emanating from him. When Luke and Corran defeated the Jensaarai and Leonia Tavira, the Saarai-kaar understoof what had
happened, and agreed that the Jedi weren't any more evil than the Jensaarai. She agreed to consider sending a delegation of her
followers to Yavin 4 for formal training under Luke. (IJ)

Jerec served Emperor Palpatine during the Galactic Civil War, and attempted to obtain the entity known as Spore for the Emperor's
use. He failed to secure the entity before it infected Hodge, but tracked Spore to Ithor. He offered Spore the chance to control
thousands of minds, if Spore agreed to work for him. Jerec had hoped that Spore would take control of the crew of his warship, the
Vengeance. However, Spore had its own plans, and used the Vengeance to try and hunt down Tash Arranda. As it tried to follow her
through the asteroids near Ithor, a group of space slugs began battering the Star Destroyer, knocking out its shields and causing it to
explode. It is unknown how Jerec survived the explosion, just that he managed to escape in a Starfly and ordered a recovery team to
pick up the pieces of the Vengeance. After the Battle of Endor, he hoped to locate the Valley of the Jedi and enhance his powers, and
murdered Qu Rahn and Morgan Katarn in his quest for more information. Jerec and his Dark Jedi would have had the Valley's secrets if
not for Morgan's son, Kyle, who defeated Jerec and his minions on the very precipice of the Valley's power source. (DF2, GOF9)

Jinn, Qui-Gon
this Jedi Master was known as one of the order’s most formidable members, but his recklessness and his devotion to seemingly inane
causes kept him from becoming a member of the 12-being Jedi Council. Trained by a Master who had worked with students for 400
years, Qui-Gon was generally regarded as one of the best pure swordsmen the order had ever seen. However, Qui-Gon was also
something of a maverick, and was unable to control his inner sense of purpose. Qui-Gon wore his hair long in a tacit defiance of the
Jedi order’s rules. His control of the living Force was deep, although his abilities with the unifying Force were not as strong. After
successfully training a Padawan apprentice, it was Qui-Gon who discovered the young boy named Xanatos, and brought him to
Coruscant for training despite his age and spoiled nature. When the Council allowed Qui-Gon to take a Padawan, Qui-Gon chose
Xanatos immediately. Qui-Gon either failed to - or chose not to – see Xanatos’ many failings, regarding the boy’s mistakes and growing
anger as minor things, much the way a father would. In the end, this caused him great trouble. Shortly before Xanatos was to take the
tests to determine his eligiblity to become a Jedi Knight, Master Yoda dispatched Qui-Gon and his Padawan to Telos, on an unspecific
mission. While there, Qui-Gon was confronted with Xanatos’ treachery in the attack on a neighboring world. Qui-Gon was forced to kill
Xanatos’ father, Crion, in a battle, and earned Xanatos’ unending hatred from that point on. The youth fled, and Qui-Gon was left to
return to Coruscant without a Padawan. He claimed that Xanatos had been killed in battle, and vowed never to take another Padawan
again. He continued to interview new students, but always left without choosing an apprentice. Years later, he was charged by Master
Yoda to travel to the planet Bandomeer and assist the government there in negotiating a mining treaty. The trip put him in close
quarters with young Obi-Wan Kenobi, whom he had recently passed up as a Padawan apprentice. They were then drawn into the
schemes of Xanatos, who hoped to exact revenge on Qui-Gon by killing him on Bandomeer. During their missions, which suddenly
became a single mission, Qui-Gon realized that he and Obi-Wan were closely meshed with the Force. During their escape from
Xanatos’ trap in the ionite mines, Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan became linked in the Force, something that was only meant to happen to a
Master and his apprentice. After their escape, Qui-Gon realized that Obi-Wan was not to be taken lightly, and he took the boy as his
Padawan learner. Together, they explored the Force for some twelve years before the Trade Federation invaded the peaceful world of
Naboo. Supreme Chancellor Valorum asked that the Jedi be dispatched to negotiate with the Neimoidians, so Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan
were sent to Naboo. There, they became entangled in the intricate web being woven by Darth Sidious. Their mission quickly changed to
the protection of Queen Amidala, whom they planned to transport to Coruscant for an appeal to the Senate. Their ship sustained large
amounts of damage in clearing the Trade Federation blockade, and they were forced to land on Tatooine to repair the ship. While on
the planet, Qui-Gon discovered the existence of young Anakin Skywalker. A check of the boy’s blood revealed an incredibly high
concentration of midi-chlorians, and after learning of Shmi Skywalker’s description of Anakin’s conception, he believed that he had
found the prophecied Chosen One. He also discovered the existence of Darth Maul, and barely escaped from the Sith Lord. He brought
Anakin before the Jedi Council, but was sternly rebuffed for his impertinence. Instead, they were all sent back to Naboo to protect
Amidala in her attempt to break the Trade Federation blockade on her own. While the Queen succeeded, Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan were
forced to confront Darth Maul again. In an epic battle within the Theed palace’s power station, Qui-Gon was separated from Obi-Wan
by the power plant’s security lasers. Forced to battle the Sith Lord on his own, Qui-Gon was physically unable to compete. Darth Maul
was able to stun Qui-Gon before killing the Jedi Master with a quick jab of his double-bladed lightsaber, while Obi-Wan looked on
helplessly. Obi-Wan was able to defeat Darth Maul once freed from the lasers, but was too late to save his Master. Obi-Wan held Qui-
Gon as he died, vowing to continue his Master’s dream of training young Anakin Skywalker. Qui-Gon Jinn was portrayed by Liam
Neeson in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. (SW1, RF, DR, IG1)

mercenary. He again encountered Vader several years later on the planet Aridus, where he had been hiding from the Empire. During
this time, Jix had befriended the native Chubbits. When Vader was nearly killed in the explosion of the Iron Tower, Jix found him and
would have killed the Dark Lord in revenge, but decided against it rather than risk the wrath of the Empire. Jix loaded Vader’s body onto
a starship and set out to deliver him, but Vader awoke and realized the situation. He offered Jix the chance to return to Aridus without
fear of Imperial pursuit if he agreed to do whatever the Dark Lord needed. Jix was forced to agree to the deal, and he became an
effective agent of Vader’s. In this capacity, Jix exposed the liaison between Frija and Admiral Droon. Jix was later infiltrated into Jabba
the Hutt's organization following the Dark Lord's failure to capture Luke Skywalker on Cloud City. Vader instructed Jix to become one of
Jabba's swoop gang members, and to capture Luke when he arrived on Tatooine to plan the rescue of Han Solo. Jix nearly captured
Luke in a swoop race through Beggar's Canyon, but Dash Rendar was able to disrupt his plans and get Luke free of the swoop gang.

Joanson, Ariq
one of Owen Lars' contemporaries, Ariq Joanson set up a moisture farm farther out than anyone else on Tatooine. His farm, which was
only marginally profitable, bordered Jawa and Sand Person lands. Ariq felt that the three races could live together peacefully, despite
the stories being spread by the Imperial governors. He regularly left gifts of water to both native races, and developed a great friendship
with the Jawas of Wimateeka's clan. He developed an uneasy truce with the Sand People. Many of his friends, including his neighbor
Eyvind, thought he was crazy. Ariq paid them no mind, and planned to purchase a great tract of land that he would subdivide with
Jawas and Sand People. He was even going to help them submit the paperwork to make the land officially their own. When Eyvind
became engaged to Ariela, Ariq asked if he could invite Wimateeka's clan. Ariela talked Eyvind into agreeing, and the wedding
reception was a success. The Jawas were impressed with human customs and civility, while the humans marvelled that the Jawas
could be so friendly. When a group of adolescent Sand People attacked the reception, Ariq was greatly dismayed. Eyvind was killed in
the attack, and the local Imperial detachment used the incident to further the distrust between the races. Ariq was undaunted, and after
rescuing Ariela from the Sand People, he set out to find the Alliance and work with them to overthrow the Empire. (TME)

this Yuzzum was a thief as well as the male lead singer for the Max Rebo Band. The name "Joh Yowza" was given to him by the band's
female lead, Sy Snootles. Joh had been ostracized from his herd on Endor because he was considered too small to hunt. He stood
nearly half a meter shorter than the average Yuzzum, and was often left behind on rugger hunts. On one of his solitary treks, Joh
managed to stow away on a ship owned by Roark Garnet, who discovered the Yuzzum and nicknamed him "Furball." It was Garnet
who taught Joh how to speak Basic. While on a stopover on Nar Shaddaa, Joh heard the music of the Max Rebo Band. He broke into
song in the audience, and so astounded the band that they hired him on the spot. When the band traveled to Tatooine to play for Jabba
the Hutt, they were forced to hide Joh because Jabba hated Yuzzum. However, Joh's incredible singing voice convinced the crimelord
that not all Yuzzum are bad. After Jabba's death, Joh fled to Mos Eisley and signed on as a singer on a small passenger liner. (RJSE,

make sure that democratic elections to determine Queen Veda's successor were fairly completed. Dunn's family had served the
monarchy of Gala for many years, and Dunn himself was a valued member of Veda's household. However, those members who served
the family had to live in the palace, and rarely saw the rest of the family. Jono himself was proud of his service to the monarchy, and
was extremely loyal to Queen Veda. However, when Veda revealed that she wished her successor to be chosen by popular election,
Jono figured that he and his family would be thrown out of the castle. His reputation, and that of his family, would be forever that of
mere farmers and fishers. He decided to use small amounts of dimilatis leaves to poison her evening tea, in an effort to kill her before
the elections could take place. Obi-Wan discovered his part, and revealed it to Qui-Gon. Jono himself was eventually punished and
sent home by Wila Prammi, the newly-elected governor of Gala. His sentence was to learn farming and become a normal citizen, not a
privileged member of the royal household. (MOC)

Jump Gate
at specific coordinates common to hyperspace and realspace which marked a safe stopping-off point in space, the early astrogators
placed huge beacons known as jump gates to mark its location. These were common very early in the development of hyperdrive
starships, for they were home to huge spaceports which had equipment and supplies. As hyperspace travel became easier with the
advent of the AI navcom units, these jump gates became simply spaceports, since the beacons were no longer needed. The ancient
jump gates were very limited in their capacity to re-route a starship, with only enough memory to remember a small number of other
locations. Thus, the network was criss-crossed with a network of routes which passed through these gates. . (TOJ, TOJC)
Jumper
1) this Zelosian parasite is noctural, and feeds on dead bodies. The feeding frenzy of a swarm of jumpers has a unique effect on newly-
dead bodies. They jumpers release certain enzymes and electrical discharges while feeding. This combination of events causes the
dead body to jerk and flinch, and eventually kick-starts the brain. The dead body then seems to come back to life and walk, although
the effect only lasts until the jumpers have consumed the body. This usually lasts a few hours. This "walking dead" effect is deathly
frightening to the native Zelosians, since it occurs at night during the darkness they fear most. (PG2)

knew that, in additon to the beautiful jewelry in his shop, Jund Voon also ran a black-market operation from the back of the
establishment. He sold everything from weapons to illegal stimulants to forbidden foods, and would also fence stolen merchandise for
the right commission. Beneath his humble exterior, Jund Voon was a greedy old miser. He was also a slave master, maintaining the

bottom act as landing skids. The four wings have eighteern unique positions, which can be adjusted depending on weaponry and
payload. It has three primary thrust engines, two on the lower wings and one at the rear of the fuselage. The two-seated fighter was
flown by a pilot and a gunner and a bomber, and was designed to fly in gravity-dense arenas. The K-Wing has no hyperdrive, being an
atmospheric bomber. It primary mission is as a bomber, and it is the equal of the TIE Bomber in armament. It can also be armed to the
teeth as a starfighter, but the ship suffers in maneuverability when more weapons are added. Thus, it is not a dogfight ship. It was first
tested by the crew of the Monitor, and was first assigned to active duty with Task Force Quickfire. It first saw combat with the Fifth
Battle Group near Bessimir. (BTS)

death of the family, both K'lial and Diskio threw in their support for the Alliance. Using their species as a cover, they scoured Grohl
Sector looking for other Xi'Dec to recruit into their family. While searching for Xi'Dec, they also appropriate rebel agents and whisk them
to safehouses before Imperial officers can capture them. K'lial was the more humanoid of the pair, using his unusual vocal capabilities

Sienn Sconn attempted to steal a Rythani prototype. A pampered and spoiled princess, Kalieva is also a devious schemer in the realms
of business and politics. She allowed herself to be drawn into Sconn’s attempt to steal the prototype from beneath Moff Caerbellak’s
nose, and actually felt herself somewhat drawn to him. However, this was all a ruse, with the ultimate goal that Sconn should steal the
prototype and deliver it to the New Republic. Kalieva had, in fact, entered into a relationship with Caerbellak, and she assumed the
throne and the corporate position he held when Caerbellak assassinated her father. Sconn fled Rydonni Prime with the weapon,
furthering Caerbellak’s plans. (SWJ9)
K’ntarr, Rilvvan
this monarch ruled the planet Rydonni Prime, and the pro-Imperial Rythani Products, during the reign of Emperor Palpatine and the

Ka, Tenel
the daughter of Isolder and Teneniel Djo, Tenel Ka was raised on Dathomir in the tradition of the other witches in Teneniel's clan. Tenel
showed great aptitude with the Force, and later attended Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy on Yavin 4, at the same time as Jacen and
Jaina Solo. She was a reserved, distant companion to the twins, in keeping with the strength she learned on Dathomir. When Luke
discovered the connection between Lando Calrissian's lost corusca gems and the space station Borgo Prime, he took Tenel Ka with
him to search out any leads on the Shadow Academy. Later, she posed with him on Dathomir as Force sensitives, and were
transported to the Shadow Academy. There, they helped rescue Jaina and Jacen. Her Jedi training nearly came to an end when Luke
Skywalker requested that the students at his praxeum built their own lightsabers, in preparation for battling the Shadow Academy.
Tenel Ka felt that the weapon was no the important link, but the warrior was. She didn't focus all of her energies in her lightsaber, which
she built from an old rancor tooth. In a practice duel with Jacen Solo, Tenel pushed herself and Jacen to their limits. Her lightsaber
failed to maintain its energy beam, and Jacen's blade passed through it, severing Tenel Ka's right hand. The wound was instantly
cauterized, and replacing the hand was impossible. She travelled back to Hapes to recover from the incident, secretly wondering about
her own abilities. She found herselve in the midst of Ambassador Yfra's treacherous plans. The series of ensuing battles forced Tenel
Ka to realize that, although the warrior is very important, how the warrior maintains their touch on the Force is most important. Her
injury was of minimal importance if she truly mastered the Force. She returned to Yavin 4, and built a new lightsaber. She kept to her
original design of using a rancor tooth, but worked with the Force to create a weapon superior to the original. It used a rainbow gem
from Gallinore, and produced a turquoise-colored blade. She has been named several times as Kenel Ka or Tenel Ta throughout the
Young Jedi Knights books. (HTF, SA, L, DK, JUS)

while they avoided the Syndicat. When the group put their plans to expose the Syndicat into motion, Kaadi rallied the local resistance
and helped storm the Syndicat's warehouses. Kaadi was injured in the struggle which was fought between the Syndicat's forces and the
resistance, but survived to lead the rebels to victory. (HP)

faithful Dark Jedi was so overwhelmed that he crashed his ship into the oceans of Kaal. The ship was rumored to have the only working
cloaking device. The crash caused massive tidal waves which destroyed the Unis Islands. The Empire abandoned the planet, since its
most valuable resort properties had been wiped out. The crimelord Tirgee Banyalle then took control of the planet, and exploited its

warships. From this hidden base, they destroyed the New Republic communications center hidden within the gas giant Galaan, and
stirred up a great deal of anoymosity toward the New Republic among the alien races of the Outer Rim. Ulcane proved to be a
motivational speaking, inciting discontent toward the Republic with relative ease. However, the Dissension died near Betha II, when the
New Republic was able to locate Ulcane and discover his hidden fleet. The Republic agents managed to destroy the space station
which served as Ulcane’s base, killing Ulcane and destroying much his fleet. (SWJ8)

this HT-2200 medium freighter was highly modified by a number of owners. Additional armor plating was added to supplement the
trimantium hull, the cargo area was divided into four environmental holds, and the original sublight drive was replaced with a SoroSuub
Boav ion drive. The original armaments were removed to add additional shielding, but the poor wiring of the shield generators into the
power cores sometimes drains the ship’s entire power supply. This “quirk” causes the entire ship to shutdown while the shields are in
use. The only remaining armament is a pulse laser cannon. (SWJ9)
Kabe
the Chandra-Fan who is present in the Mos Eisley cantina when Luke is assaulted by Ponda Baba, Kabe was orphaned in the streets of
the spaceport by a group of smugglers who thought she was too small to be of any value. She was about 40 standard years old at that
time. She was adopted by the Talz named Muftak, and the two of them often work together. She also gains a great deal of fun and
money by posing as a Jawa and demanding unofficial taxes of the desert scavengers. She has a great liking for Juri Juice, which she
consumes quite readily in the cantina. However, Wuher won't give her credit, so she has to have Muftak get it for her. The two orphans
get a chance to leave Tatooine for good after trying to rob Jabba the Hutt's Mos Eisley townhouse. They nearly got away with a trove of
treasures when they found Barid Mesoriaam in a hidden chamber. He entrusted a datadot to them, which they delivered to a Mon
Calamari working for the Alliance. He paid them 15,000 credits and two Imperial travel vouchers as a reward. (SW, SCRE, TME)

However, Novar planned to use this to his advantage, and did absolutely nothing about the dinner. Meanwhile, Kad bragged endlessly
about the incredible plans he was developing. When Ommin arrived at the dining hall, he found that there was nothing in place: no food,

Duinuogwuin, and can exist in hard vacuum for short periods of time. Their lifespan can reach 1,500 years, and they continue to grow
throughout their lives, often reaching lengths of 200 meters or more. A protective exoskeleton cracked and expanded with each period
of growth. The front section of their bodies is studded with six to ten arms, and their heads are crowned with a wide frill of chitin. The
lower section of their body is a bulbous, fleshy mass. As individual beings grew, they eventually reached a point in their lives where
their bodies were too large to survive. These huge Kadri'Ra often chose to hide themselves in caverns, thereby forcing their bodies to
adapt to the natural confines of the cave. The Kadri'Ra were generally regarded as thinkers and sages, although the Empire regarded
them as mere beasts. They were subjugated and enslaved, and many Kadri'Ra died in labor camps. In the brief period of the New
Order, the population of Kadri'Ra was cut from over 140 million to less than 15,000. (BSS)
2) this was the incredibly complex language of the Kadri'Ra species. (BSS)

adorned with functional spikes. She employed Qorl as her personal pilot after joining Brakiss on the Shadow Academy. She struggled
against Brakiss’ leadership, and was bitter that Zekk defeated her own champion, Vilas. When the Shadow Academy attacked Yavin 4,
Tamith Kai led the initial ground assault with Zekk. They split up the Jedi students and tried to kill them separately, but were unable to
do so. When Tenel Ka clipped a TIE Fighter with her lightsaber, the craft spun out of control and struck the landing platform on which
Tamith Kai stood. She was instantly killed in the resulting explosion. (SA, L, JUS)

is nonetheless just as distinctive. (TFE)
Kaiburr Crystal
a red gemstone capable of enhancing the user's Force strength. It increases the holder's perception of the Force, and this effect is
magnified with larger portions of the crystal. Luke feels the gem's power with just a shard that is held by Halla. When he gains control of
the entire gem, its power is revealed as a healing power. It heals the various mortal injuries Luke sustained in his battle with Darth
Vader inside the Temple of Pomojema. Luke later uses the power to help heal Leia's wounds. Halla makes the connection between the
crystal's power and the rumors of Pomojema's priests performing healing miracles. Luke gives control of the crystal to Halla, who holds
onto it. Luke's studies into Jedi lore also revealed that kaiburr crystals were the most powerful stones that could be used in the creation
of lightsabers. (SME, L)

War. This was because he appeared to be nothing more than a farmer, which was his chosen cover. Kain was also known as a
drunkard, and spent many loud nights drinking in the Farmer's Folly. Drukus took up the secret life of a weapons maker after the Empire
took control of Bissillirus System for use as a supply depot., supplying the rebellious youths of the planet with weapons he hopes will be
used to eliminate the Imperial presence. (GMK)

Hoole. The two became friends, until Kairn and his buddies dared Zak to enter the huge graveyard and travel to the Crypt of the
Ancients in the dead of night. Zak agreed, but was confronted with the undead zombies that lived in the cemetary. Kairn tried to rescue
Zak, but was captured and murdered by Evazan. Kairn was buried in a ceremony along with Evazan, but Kairn returned to the city the
next day as a member of the reanimated dead. He had been the latest of Doctor Evazan's experiments, and a fairly successful one at
that. Kairn's death provided Evazan with a freshly dead body, and proved that his reanimation serum was viable. Evazan himself had
been killed by Boba Fett, but had injected himself with his reanimation serum and returned to life. Zak was caught up in Evazan's plans,
and Kairn became just another zombie until Evazan tried to kill everyone in order to cover his tracks. When the droid D-V9 discovered a
way to reverse the reanimation process, Kairn was ordered by Evazan to stop him. However, Kairn disobeyed Evazan and used the
droid's new potion to halt the living dead and make them dead again. However, in the struggle, some of the potion got on Kairn's skin,
and he was also killed. (GOF2)

Kal Nkai
an Arcona, who left his Grand Nest with his father, Kal Mpon, after it was raided by another clan. Kal Nkai, alone and without support,
was picked up by an Imperial detachment and forced to work in a salt mine. Being an Arcona and raised in a saltless environment, Kal
Nkai became addicted to the salt. He knew that his addiction was hindered by his nearness to such a large source, and he sought to
escape his slavery. After a successful escape from Imperial slavery, Kal Nkai arrived on Tatooine, at the ripe old age of 16 standard
years. He quickly established himself as a moisture farmer, working to extract the water and stay away from salt. Known as "Goldeye"
around Mos Eisley, Kal Nkai frequents the cantina quite often, looking for a lick of salt to satisfy his cravings while going through
withdrawal. He was in the Mos Eisley cantina when Obi-Wan and Luke approached Han Solo for passage to Alderaan. (SW, SCRE)

Kal-tan-shi
this Tiss'shar was a noted bounty hunter and assassin who had an intense rivalry with Ssach’thirix during the early years of the Galactic
Civil War. Kal-tan-shi made a living capturing Alliance operatives, preferring to hunt for Alliance personnel because Imperial bounties
tended to be higher than individual ones. This alone would have angered the Alliance, but Kal-tan-shi had a penchant for killing the
operatives during transport. Kal-tan-shi earned his reputation as a member of House Paramexor, which specialized in the capture of
non-living bounties. He left the Paramexor family to start his own business, which earned him the displeasure of Janq Paramexor,
although the two remained good friends for a long time. For an unknown reason, Kal-tan-shi hated droids, and didn’t use any to help
operate his freighter, the Accuser. (GG12, AIR)

Kala'uun Starport
this Rylothian starport was under the control of the Shak clan. It is located on the terminator line between dark and light sides of the
planet, gaining a measure of warmth from its position. However, due to the crosswinds created as the cold air of the dark side mixes
with the hot air on the light side, approaches to the starport need to be handled with care. This danger was further compounded by the
fact that Kala’uun was dug into the heights of a huge spire of rock. (KT, XWBT)

centimeters across, including their shelled bodies and flagellum. They have a lifespan of just a few months, but reproduce proficiently in
stable environments. The kalaides float along and consume a wide variety of bacteria and small algae, in effect cleaning the waters of
the planet and making them inhabitable to other species. However, when climatic or environmental changes affect the waterways,
birthrates of kalaides drop dramatically, thereby affecting other populations. The government of Cols has placed severe restrictions on
the corporations of the planet, forcing them to minimize their chemical wastes in order to preserve the kalaide populations. (COG)
Kalan

Kalduu
this is one of two sentient races native to the planet Ropagi II, although their external appearance would bely that. The Kalduu are
large, hemispherical creatures which float above the ground. Four tentacles dangle below their transparent bodies, serving as a means
for eating and breathing. They travel in groups of three or less, consuming viruses and germs from the air. The average Kalduu can live
to be 500 standard years in age, and they reproduce via fission. The Kalduu have no vocal chords, and have learned to communicate
via telepathy. Two or more Kalduu and form a group mind if they are in close proximity. Several millenia before the Galactic Civil War,
the Kalduu realized that the warring factions of the Ropagu were eventully going to destroty their planet. The Kalduu intervened in the
struggles, making contact and winning the trust of the various Ropagu nations. Since then, the Kalduu have bonded with the minds of
the various Ropagu leaders, filling their minds with peaceful thoughts while forming a form of symbiotic relationship. After many
centuries of this existence, the Kalduu stopped influencing the minds of the Ropagu, using telepathy only to avoid warfare. Current
generations of Kalduu often regret that their ancestors used this form of mind control on the Roapgu, but they also realize the potential
danger that was averted. (TSK)

Kalenda, Belindi
a slight, dark-skinned female human working for the New Republic Intelligence agency, Belindi was noticeable from her jet-black hair
and disarming eyes that never seemed to focus on their subject. As a Lieutenant in the NRI, she was assigned to infiltrate the Corellian
Sector in 37 NE and try to find out why other NRI agents were suddenly disappearing. She enlisted Han Solo's help in trying to gather
more information. Her operation to land on Corellia was compromised, though, and she was forced to crash into the planet's ocean.
When she realized that the NRI had been infiltrated, she changed her mission in the field, acting as the unofficial bodyguard for
Princess Leia and Solo family until the New Republic security team arrived. She was forced to go further underground when Thrackan
Sal-Solo seceeded the Sector from the New Republic. She was 25 years old when Thrackan Sal-Solo rises to power. She was told by
her brother, Tindel, that she was a native of an unspecified backwater world in the Outer Rim, but she grew up on Coruscant. After the
crisis in the Corellian Sector was resovled, Belindi remained with the NRI, and eventually held the position of deputy director of
operations. By the time the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, Belindi had earned the rank of Colonel within the NRI. She oversaw the
initial interviews with the Yuuzhan Vong priestess Elan on Wayland, but was later implicated in the “misinformation flap” which arose in
the wake of the Battle of Fondor. Her team had provided intelligence enough to point to a Yuuzhan Vong invasion of Corellia, Bothawui,
or Tynna. After Tynna was attacked, Corellia was left undefended to lure the Vong into a trap. However, The aliens attacked at Fondor
instead, and the shipyards there were lost. Belindi became something of a scaepgoat, and was demoted to Lieutenant Colonel.
Nevertheless, she remained a valuable agent for the NRI. (AC, AS, CTD, BP)

Kaloob
this food is consumed by the Ergesh in order to cleanse themselves. It causes all of the Ergesh's glands and organs to secrete copious
amounts of fluid, which flushes their systems of any pollutants. Kaloob can be ingested by other races as a detoxifier and antibiotic, but
is will also increase moisture production as with the Ergesh. This results in the being shedding large amounts of sweat and tears, and
can induce diarrhea and nausea. (PG2)

become one of the founding members of the Zulirian Swordmasters, and Kaltor quickly agreed. Kaltor became a major force in the
formation of the Swordmasters’ policies, while maintaining his religious beliefs. Kaltor was aslo known as the founder and leader of the
Ni’shaw-Dak Ministry, and somehow managed to keep both efforts separate. It was Kaltor who discovered preserved copies of the
Jydan Writings and the Volumes of Truth, next to which he found a perfectly preserved rantok blade and a series of books documenting
the history and use of the religious tomes. Thus, he felt himself to have been chosen as Ni’Shaw’s third prophet, and set out to

an insectoid race native to the planet Kamar, the Kamarians have a number of pairs of legs called brachia that support their chitinous
exoskeleton. They have multifacted eyes, and a large prehensile tail that they use to sit on in conjunction with their lowermost pair of
legs. Their color tends to mimic their surroundings - the Badland natives are pale and brown. They have a unique form of
communication, which involves various vocal clicks and whistles as well as way of interweaving their arms to create complex patterns.
They also have an emerging technology, although they are a number of advances behind the majority of the galaxy. They have
perfected the use of fluidics, as well as missile-based nuclear weapons. As a species, the Kamarians were largely nocturnal. Each

Kamiel, Earnst
this Justice Action Network terrorist leader was captured on Elrood following the Battle of Yavin. Kamiel was wanted by the Empire
because he was the leader and founder of JAN, which rose to prominence on the planet Findris some sixteen years before the Battle of
Hoth. The movement spread over much of the Colonies region of the galaxy before Kamiel’s capture. Kamiel himself was wanted by the
Empire on many charges, including thousands of bombings and the cause of over 10,000 deaths. He also had the death sentence in 54
different systems. Shortly after being caught on Elrood, Kamiel was trnasported to Haldeen, where he was executed by a firing squad.

this vast mineral and ore mining operation owned the exclusive rights to mining the Thrugii Asteroid Belt, located within the Socorran
System. Because of the system's remote location, Kanauer rarely had to deal with the Empire. Thus, they were free to handle things
theri own way. This included hiring and paying their laborers, as well as dispensing their own justice to claim jumpers. (BSS)
Kanawyn Belt
this was the innermost of the two asteroid belts which ringed the star Saurton. Along with the Greawyn Belt, the Kanawyn Belt enclosed

Kanos, Kir
this man was at one time an elite stormtrooper for the Empire. Recognized as one of the most loyal and able warriors of the Empire, he
was given a chance to train at the Royal Guard facility on Yinchorr. His chief rival during the training was Carnor Jax, who defeated
Alum Frost in combat for the Emperor. Kir also survived the training, after being forced to fight a battle to the death with his friend,
Lemmet Tauk. His reward was to be defeated by Darth Vader and the Dark Side of the Force, which earned him a lightsaber scar
across his face. He was promoted to serve as one of Emperor Palpatine's Royal Imperial Guards, and he served faithfully until
Palpatine was killed at Endor. Like many of the Royal Guard, he remained loyal to the remnants of the Empire, and tried to return to
Palpatine's side when his clones were activated on Byss. However, after the clones were killed, Kanos returned to Yinchorr with the
other Guards to discuss their next moves. All but Kanos were wiped out by the treacherous Carnor Jax, including Kile Hannad. Kanos
suddenly found himself loyal to an Empire with no leader. Worse, he learned that Carnor Jax had assumed control of a portion of the
Empire, proclaiming to be a Dark Lord. Kanor went into hiding on Phaeda, and joined the New Republic cell led by Mirith Sinn in order
to defeat their common enemies. When Colonel Shev ordered his forces to invade the Republic stronghold and capture Kanos, Sinn's
forces were unable to stop the assault. However, Kanos took matters into his own hands nad eliminated Shev's troops, then fled to
Yinchorr. He was followed by Jax, Blim, and a squadron of specially-trained, black-armored stormtroopers which he quickly dispatched.
He then faced Carnor Jax, alone in The Squall. Kanos was able to gain the upper hand, and when Mirith Sinn and Sish Sadeet
dispatched Blim, Kanos was able to breach Jax's defense and drive the blade of his staff through Jax's breastplate. Jax was killed
instantly, despite the fact that Mirith wanted him alive for questioning. Sadeet was angry at the loss of Jax, and tried to kill Kanos.
Kanos, however, anticipated Sadeet's attack and killed the Trandoshan with a jab of his staff. He then left Yinchorr and went into hiding.
He reappeared as the bounty hunter Kenix Kil, and infiltrated Grappa the Hutt's organization. When Mirith was given over to the
Zanzibar and taken to Xo, Kanos followed them. He hoped to rescue Mirith, and asked for Kennede's son's help. However, Kanos was
captured by the Zanzibar and brought to Genon by Zzzanmxl, who hoped to collect the Imperial bounty on Kanos' head. Mirith
managed to free him, along with Feena D'Asta, and they returned to Ord Cantrell to find the Baron D'Asta. In the wake of Xandel
Carivus' treacherous schemes, Kanos hunted the self-proclaimed Emperor down and executed him as a traitor to the Empire. Kanos
then left them all on Ord Cantrell, to follow his own ideal of the Empire depsite his afffection for Mirith. (CE, CE2)
Kant

Kanz Disorders
about 4,000 years before the Galactic Civil War, the provisional governor of the planet Argazda - Myrial - seceded his planet from the
Old Republic and declared the Kanz Sector independent. He then launched into a series of conquests in which a number of planets
were placed into slavery, including Lorrd. The outrage from the enslaved worlds met deaf ears in the Old Republic, for it was busy
battling the outbreak of Sith magic in the galaxy. The Disorders lasted nearly 300 years before they were resolved by a joint task force
of Jedi Knights and Old Republic armed forces. 300 million Lorrdians and 5 billion other beings were killed in the conflicts. (HSR, CSA)

Kapp Dendo
this small-time shakedown artist was working on Tatooine with Winter, during the New Republic’s search for the Imperial Eidolon Base.
He was one of the Alliance's best special operatives, using his wits, slyness, and charisma to get the job done. He was also a great
judge of character, and was responsible for recruiting many agents into the Alliance. Dendo was a Devaronian male, and he
unknowingly hired Rogue Squadron to blow up some of Huff Darklighter’s buildings. This would allow Winter to infiltrate Darklighter’s
safe and steal the data disk containing the location of the base and the weapons hidden there. Firith Olan’s agents got there first, and
stole the disk before Winter could stop them. Shortly before the Battle of Brentaal, Dendo was given command of Commando team
one. He and his commandos were inserted into the city of Vuultin, on Brentaal, to gather intelligence and plan the ground assault that
st
would augment air strikes. His team rescued Wes Janson and Ibtisam after they were shot down by the 181 Imperial Fighter Group,
and used their skills to assist in the ground attack. Later, Kapp Dendo led a group of six Noghri on a mission to infiltrate the planet
Ciutric and help Corran Horn free the prisoners Ysanne Isard had held on the Lusankya. (XWBT, XWES, XWMR, HXW, IR)
Kappa
the Imperial transport intercepted by Alliance starfighters as it tried to carry away the Cygnus Spaceworks technical staff. (XW)
Kappa-class Shuttle
this 35-meter shuttle was a personnel transport ship produced during the height of the Old Republic by Republic Sienar Systems. It was
originally designed to carry AT-PTs into battle for close support operations, and could carry up to 40 troops into battle. The shuttle's
interior was modular, and could be rearranged for various troop needs. In form it was a precursor to the Lambda-class shuttle, but the
cockpit was extended away from the main fuselage and the the dorsal wing was not used. The stabilizer wings on the Kappa-class
shuttle are much smaller than the Lambda-class has, and are stationary. The standard Kappa-class shuttle was armed with a pair of
turret-mounted, double blaster cannons, and a pair of repeating blaster cannons mounted on the nose. After the rise of the Empire, the
Kappa-class remained in production, although many users decided to leave off the AT-PTs. The cargo space which held the small
walkers was often turned into additiona storage space. (ROE)
Kappela Dynasty

Kar Yang
this Hiitian bounty hunter came to Azool to learn of the whereabouts of Guri, after the human replica droid escaped the destruction of
Prince Xizor’s skyhook. Yang and his own assistant droid tracked Guri to Murninkam, where she rescued the droid Doc. They followed
her trail back to Hurd’s Moon, where the assistant droid initiated a plan to kill Yang and take Guri for itself. Kang overhead the
conversation between the droid and its employer, and executed the droid shortly after they infiltrated Hurd’s Moon. After discovering
where Trumble’s operating room was, Kang tried to recover Guri on his own. Guri complied, just long enough to catch Yang off-guard
and disable him, then she killed him in self-defense. (SEE)

Karak
this charismatic, power-hungry Sedrian priest was the bishop of war under Cardo's rulership of Fitsay. However, Karak desired more
power than that. He stole a piece of the Golden Sun for his own use, hoping to take control of Fitsay and, eventually, all of Sedri. His
chief rival, Cardo, drove Karak and his followers out of Fitsay, but they retained their piece of the Golden Sun. In order to gain popular
support, Karak preached that the Golden Sun should be accessible to all Sedrians, in open opposition to Cardo's own stance. After
fleeing Fitsay, Karak tried to form an alliance with Commander Aban and the Imperials. Karak hoped to crack the Great Shell Dome and
take the Golden Sun for himself. Aban wanted to obtain the power of the Golden Sun for the Empire. His treacherous plans eventually
affected the Golden Sun itself, turning it to the Dark Side of the Force. Pek, Fala, and a group of Alliance agents were able to scatter
pieces of the Golden Sun from the Great Shell Dome, cutting off Karak's power and leaving him defenseless. He was captured by Pek's
forces and imprisoned for his treachery. (BGS)

Karazak
this is the primary planet in the Karazak System, located in the Outer Rim Territories. The planet is riddled with caves and tunnels,
which are used by the Slaver Syndicate as a base of operations. Along with Zygeria and the Thalassian System, Karazak is one of the
Outer Rim's slaving capitals. (GG9)
Karbo Jaxx
this Rodian arms dealer and gunrunner was known to work alone. Few beings knew that Karbo Jaxx wasn't his real name. In fact,
Karbo Jaxx was really Nian Lup. Karbo maintained a base of operation behind the waterfall which fed Telega Lake. Karbo worked
almost exclusively in the Outer Rim. Karbo dealt often with the Alliance, and never betrayed them despite having no specific allegiance
to the Alliance. He just recognized that the Alliance was a needy client which could afford his prices. (HAS)
Karbonni Asteroid Belt
this asteroid belt is located in the Pax System. It was here that one of the two ships carrying gems from the Klatooinan Trade Guild, in
payment for the rights to trade on Plagen, was lost. To this day, explorers of every kind seek the ship, called the Fool’s Gold, hoping to
obtain fantastic wealth. (TSK)
Karda, Abal
Karda was, at one time, an Imperial Colonel. Boba Fett took on the assignment to track this man down, after he was declared an enemy
of the Empire, shortly before the Battle of Yavin. A balding man with a cybernetic replacement for his left eye, Karda had been ordered
by his superior, General Nim, to wipe out the Icarii. Karda destroyed the Icarii by poisoning the entire tribe. Selestrine, queen of the
Icarii, was captured by Karda and forced into slavery. Karda believed that he could use her ability to foresee the future to his
advantage, but Selestrine took the same poison that killed her tribe. In anger, Karda beheaded her before the poison could spread, and
then stolen the disembodied head after medics encased it in a life-sustaining casket sheathed in kneeb hide. Selestrine then predicted
that Karda's superior, General Nim, would be killed, and Karda could move up to take his place. General Nim came to Karda to
congratulate him, and also revealed that Darth Vader himself knew about Seletrine's disembodied head. Karda grew scared and
jealous of this knowledge, and shot Nim and his forces dead on the spot, thereby fulfilling Selestrin'es prophecy. Karda fled the Empire,
assuming the guise of a Vestaari nomad in order to escape notice and travel to Star Station 12, then assumed the guise of a Duhman
traveller in order to avoid being captured for the bounty placed on his head. Karda then traveled to Star Station 9, hoping to throw off
any pursuit before fleeing to the planet Maryx Minor, where he hid himself among the Ancient Order of the Pessimists. Karda grew
more and more delusional, and even killed one of the priests there when he believed the young man was a bounty hunter. He killed
another when their funeral dirge for brother Mabob was too loud. However, Karda's disguises and hiding places couldn't prevent Boba
Fett from finding him. In the end, Karda was shot and killed by Fett on Maryx Minor. (EOE)
Kardue'sai'Malloc
this Devish from the Kardue family was the third to bear that name and the sixteenth in a line of devoted Army supporters. He was also
the last, for when the Empire ordered him to execute over 700 Devaronian supporters of the Alliance, he balked at military life. He fled
Devaron, and ended up on Tatooine. There, he went by the name of Labria, where he is known as Mos Eisley's mascot drunkard. He
tries to make a living as an information broker, but his constant state of inebriation nets him little in the way of valuable data. He is
known to a few by the alias Airbal (Labria spelled backwards), which is the name his is using to save money in a Tatooine bank. He
hopes one day to make it big and get off the desert world. In the meantime, he pursued the best the galaxy has to offer for music,
despite Imperial restrictions on performers in general. He has an extensive (complete, in his estimation) collection of the galaxy's music
hidden in his Mos Eisley residence. When Garindan told him that Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes were playing for Jabba, he became
obsessed with seeing them. Knowing that Jabba didn't like him and wouldn't let him in, Kardue'sai'Malloc arranged for Valarian to dump
the Max Rebo Band and hire the Nodes away from Jabba. At the same time, he tipped Jabba off to Valarian's transgression. In the
resulting melee, he asked Wuher to offer the Nodes a chance to lay low, in exchange for playing at the Mos Eisley cantina for basically
nothing. Thus, Kardue'sai'Malloc - Labria to his Mos Eisley friends - was present in the Mos Eisley cantina when Obi-Wan and Luke
approach Han Solo for passage to the Alderaan system. Larbia eventually won most of the Nodes' musical instruments playing sabacc
with Figrin. He used his ability to see infrared light to cheat Figrin, failing only to obtain Doikk Na'ts's Fizzz. Kardue was eventually
captured, some fifteen years after the Battle of Hoth. Kardue had been spotted on Tatooine, following the deaths of four mercenaries
who were trying to kill him. Boba Fett tracked him to Peppel, somehow finding him by tracking sales of Merenzane Gold. Fett
incapacitated Kardue, and brought him back to Devaron for sentencing. Before being turned over to the authorities, Kardue made Fett
promise that his music collection would be recovered and saved for posterity. As per Devaronian law, Kardue was executed by a pack
of quarra for his crimes. (SW, SCRE, TME, TBH)

this northern area of the city of Xakrea, on Darkknell, was inhabited by members of the fringe and the lower classes. (TFNR)
Karflo Corporation
this conglomerate has subsidairy businesses in heavy mining, manufacturing, xenobiotechnology, colonial exploration, and research.
Karflo was one of the original Signatory Sponsors of the Corporate Sector Authority. Under the rule of Emperor Palpatine and the New
Order, Karflo became a major manufacturer of hyperdrive components, and often exploited low-tech worlds in order to rape them of
natural resources. This practice was curtailed by the New Republic, in an effort to allow these worlds to decide for themselves how best
to use their natural resources. (CSA, GG8)
Karflo
an Alliance freighter group that was part of a convoy trying to supply Admiral Harkov's defecting fleet. The convoy, and the Karflo
group, were destroyed in an Imperial ambush. (TIE)
Kargin
this man held the rank of General within the Hawk-bat Independent Space Force pirate command structure. In reality, Kargin was Garik
Loran. (IF)
Kari
this is the sole sentient species is native to the planet Karideph. The Kari are small insectoids, with black exskeletons covering most of
their bodies. They walk on two powerful legs, with two small arm-like appendages used to manipulate objects. Due to the huge, city-like
structures which dominate the surface of the planet, many Kari live in a vast system of underground tunnels, and have never seen the
light of the planet's primary star. Much of their effort is spent growing food, as the population of Karideph is nearly 100 billion Kari. The
Kari are also adept at creating small appliances and machines, which they export in exchange for food. The basic societal element of
the Kari is the Hatch, which describes a family of 20 to 30 individuals. It is the Hatches, not the Kari themselves, that form the individual
personalities of Karideph, as the Kari have a true hive society. As a whole, the Kari have limited intelligence, but they have developed a
system of songs that maintain histories and lessons from generation to generation. Bards were among the most important of the Kari,
and each Hatch had at least one singer to preserve their history and to communicate with other Hatches. The Empire banned the Kari
from participating in - or even developing - space travel, fearing that their impressive birthrate would allow the Kari to quickly overrun
human society. (GG6, AE)
Karideph
this planet is one of the most overpopulated places in the galaxy. Like Coruscant, Karideph's surface is dominated by cities, with any
space not given over to buildings being consumed with endless tiers of well-groomed gardens. There is no longer any wilderness or
wildlife on Karideph. Even the mountains and seas have been turned into terraced and manicured plots. Much of the planet's industry is
geared toward the production of food for its incomprehensible numbers; foodstuffs also top the list of items imported to the planet. The
planet’s native sentient race, the Kari, supported the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War, although they were prone to any attack
which left them without a constant source of food. Karideph is located in the Minos Cluster. Its temperate climate once allowed the
operation of farms. Its day lasts approximately 19 standard hours, and its year lasts 204 local days. (GG6)
Karin
this Baron was a native of the planet Yarrv, and ruled the Darpheon city-state during the Galactic Civil War. Karin was militaristic
agitator who hoped to become King of Yarrv and subjugate the nearby planet of Steelious. A war with Steelious would require heavy
investment in war materiel, and Karin's city-state was heavily involved with military manufacturing. Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, an
Alliance protocol droid containing vital information on the Alliance's activities in the sector was damaged on Yarrv, and found
employment in Karin's estate as a butler. Alliance agents were forced to infiltrate the Baron's estate and recover the droid. (WS)
Karinne

Karkas
this huge man was easily distinguished by his smashed-in face, one crushed eye, and muscular physique. He was one of the most
wanted criminals in the galaxy during the Galactic Civil War, with a death sentence in over two dozen systems. He was wanted by the
Empire, the Alliance, and even Black Sun for committing over 90 murders. Each time he murdered, Karkas carved the letter 'K' in his
victim's forehead. Part of the time, Karkas was working for Jabba the Hutt. Karkas had agreed to submit to the B'omarr monk brain
removal operation, which would allow Karkas' brain to be placed into another person's body, allowing Karkas to continue his criminal
actions. However, Zak Arranda allowed the prisoner Jabba had held for Karkas' brain to escape, so Jabba transferred Karkas' brain to
Zak's sister, Tash. They had plans to transfer Karkas' brain into the Shi'ido body of Hoole, but Hoole and Zak foiled their plans. (GOF7)

Karr
this Imperial Lieutenant served under Administrator Brago, after Brago replaced Fuguee at the Kline Colony outpost. (SWJ10)
Karra
this planet is an intensely warm world covered with grassy plateaus and thick jungle canyons. Much of the indigenous life on Karra is
insectoid, and the native Karrans have evolved into primitive insectivores. A group of settlers, funded by the Mineral Assets Partnership,
tried to establish a varmigio mine on the planet, but the mines were dry and provided no ore. The settlement was abandoned until the
Empire tried to rejuvenate the mines. They met with the same result, and again the mines were abandoned. The mines were eventually
destroyed by dense swarms of insects, presumably controlled by the Karrans. The average day on Karra lasted 20 standard hours, and
its year took up 304 local days. (SWJ1)
Karran
this race of large, fur-covered creatures evolved on the planet Karra. Their bodies were roughly cone-shaped, with their long snouts at
the apex and their round hindquarters at the base. By the era of the New Order, they had developed the use of tools, but their long
fingers and the lack of an opposable thumb limited their dexterity. The Karrans subsist on the various insect species on the planet, and
have a primitive culture. They have recently developed a form of hive mind, and seem to be able to control certain species of insects.
The primary evidence of this control is the destruction of two failed varmigio mines on Karra, which were destroyed by huge swarms of
insects which were seemingly operating at the will of the Karrans. (SWJ1, AE)
Karran Beetle
this species of huge insect was native to the planet Karra. They used their large mandibles as weapons, and could do great damage to
living flesh. The Karrans themselves learned how to control the beetles, and used them in battle against their enemies. (SWJ1)
Karran Mantis
this species of huge insect was native to the planet Karra. Imperial forces which tried to establish a base on the planet discovered that
this species of mantis was nearly as large as an AT-AT walker. The Karrans themselves learned how to control the mantises, and used
them in battle against their enemies. At the height of the Galactic Civil War, there was only one surviving specimen of Karran Mantis,
kept alive by the careful tending of the Karrans. (SWJ1)
Karrde, Talon
a smuggler and information broker, Karrde learned the ropes of smuggling from Billey. It was during this period that Karrde discovered
the whereabouts of the Katana fleet by accident, when a botched operation left his crew's ship in an uncharted area of space. After
leaving Billey’s operation, Karrde became one of Jorj Car'das' most trusted lieutenants. When Car'das suddenly disappeared about five
years before the Battle of Endor, Karrde stepped in and took control of the operation. He quickly solidifed his power base, surviving
seven different assassination attempts, four of which seemed to have Car'das behind them. Karrde commanded a group of
highly-skilled thieves and mercenaries from his starship, the Wild Karrde. He more or less took control of most of the galaxy's
smuggling after Jabba the Hutt's demise, although it was not a position he desired. He surrounded himself with the best people he
could hire, including Mara Jade and the young slicer Ghent. During the time when Grand Admiral Thrawn returned from the Unknown
Regions to harry the New Republic, Karrde found himself in the midst of the struggle when he intercepted Luke Skywalker in an empty
section of space. He then hosted Han Solo and Lando Calrissian at his base on Myrkr, but forced to abandon the base when Imperial
forces raided it. Karrde continued to assist the New Republic from a distance, and was instrumental in the recovery of a crystal gravfield
trap receptor for the Republic. He was later instrumental in the formation of the Smuggler's Alliance. During the Caamas Incident,
Karrde decided that it was time to search out Car'das, if not for his own personal reasons then to recover a copy on the Caamas
Document. While Car'das did not have a copy of the Document, he did have complete history records of Moff Disra, Grodin Tierce, and
Flim, which Karrde, with the help of Shada D'ukal, managed to return to Admiral Pellaeon aboard the Chimaera. Once Disra was
brought to trial, Karrde's actions allowed the Republic and the remnants of the Empire to initiate a peace treaty. Ever the opportunist,
Karrde proposed that he be allowed to set up an Intelligence agency that provided the same information to both the Empire and the
New Republic. That way, there could be no secrets between them, especially if Karrde's agency remained neutral. Both sides agreed to
the proposal. For a while, Karrde himself served as the primary liaison between the Republic and the Imperial Remnant. (HTTE, DFR,

Karre, Debin
this modest-seeming, middle-aged man wanted to join the Imperial military as a young man, but a childhood accident left him with a

Karsk, Amil
this Alliance fighter pilot was a rival of Biggs Darklighter. On a mission against a large number of TIE Fighters, Biggs recorded five kills
and should have been named ace, while Karsk recorded four. Karsk later claimed to have made the kill Biggs' claimed was his third.
Biggs let him have it, and to let Karsk know that he knew about the deception, any time Biggs obtained five of anything, he gave Karsk
the third. During a series of five scheduled patrols Biggs was to fly, he gave Karsk the third. This mission was a simple escort mission to
Alderaan. However, while on layover on Alderaan, Karsk was killed when the Death Star destroyed Alderaan. (XWN)

one of the Swimming People of Dellalt, he is Shazeen's nephew. He is the Top Bull in the lake near J'uoch's mining camp when Han
Solo, Chewbacca, Badure, and Hasti arrive on Dellalt, after having bested his uncle in combat. He has since gained a lot of power over
the humans who use the lake, as well as the other sauropteroids, charging exorbitant prices for transport while harshly discouraging
other Swimmers from operating on the lake. When Han asks for transport, Kasarax demands 40 driit each. This enrages Shazeen, who
asks for no payment for transport. This leads to a race and, eventually, physical combat between the two. Kasarax is bested by
Shazeen in this second battle, and is forced out of power. (HSL)

Kashyyyk
this jungle planet, known for its deadly flora and fauna, is the Wookiee home world, although there are legends that say the Wookiees
settled Kashyyyk after travelling from another planet. There are four main continents on the planet, separated by bands of ocean
studded with archipelagoes. There is a small region of desert near the equator. The Wookiees live in huge tree cities built to elevate
them from the dangerous lower levels of the jungle. The Wookies discovered that the jungle had seven distinct levels, each defined by
the amount of light it receives. The lower levels – designated first, second, and third - have plants which are phosphorescent, providing
their own light. Wookiees never traveled below the fourth level. The normal Kashyyyk rotational period lasts about 26 standard hours;
its year lasts 381 local days. It is located in the Sumitra Sector, and has three moons. (SW, HTTE, HTSB, REB, DK, RD)

Kast, Jodo
the bounty hunter wore Mandlorian shocktrooper armor, similar to that worn by Boba Fett, although it is unknown if his armor is as
modified. Known as a ruthless and cunning bounty hunter, Jodo Kast patterned his own life after Boba Fett, and often let his quarry
assume he was the famous bounty hunter. He often got jobs for his resemblance to Fett, when the party posting the bounty wanted
Fett's reputation but couldn't afford it. It was Kast who pursued Ponda Baba through Truuzdann. He later teamed up with Puggles
Trodd and Zardra when he was approached by Captain Parlan to hunt down Adar Tallon. When Kast took a New Republic bounty to
hunt down Jerresk’s pirates, he came under the notice of Dengar, who relayed the hunter’s impersonation of Boba Fett to Fett himself.
Fett, using the alias Sava Brec Madak, hired Kast to hunt down the ficticious Satnik Hiicrop. Hiicrop was none other than Boba Fett,
who managed to capture Kast on Nal Hutta some five years after the Battle of Yavin. Fett injected Kast with a neural toxin to disable
him, then blew up the building Kast was lying in. (TM, SCRE, EGC, TOD)

Katana
lead Dreadnaught in the Katana Fleet. (DFR)
Katana Fleet
this fleet of 200 Dreadnaught-class Heavy Cruisers was commissioned by the Old Republic, during a period where such an expense
was incredibly unjustified. However, the plan was approved based on the fact that they were fitted with full-rig slave circuitry to cut down
on the huge crew size; only about 2,000 crewmen would be needed. Called "The Dark Force" due to their dark coloration and/or lack of
interior lighting, they were lost on their maiden voyage when a hive virus invaded the crew. The dying crew tried to slave all the ships
together, but the command crew was by this time also insane, and they blind-jumped into hyperspace and disappeared. Decades later,
the rumors of the Dark Fleet were proved factual, when the location of the ships was discovered by Talon Kaarde. His information was
given to the New Republic, but also stolen by Grand Admiral Thrawn. Thrawn’s forces managed to get to the fleet just before the
Republic, but both sides managed to secure parts of the fleet. (DFR)
Katarn
a predatory creature native to the planet Kashyyyk, the katarn is a sleek quadriped with a thin, rodent-like tail and prehensile claws on
their hands. The head of a katarn is crowned by a bony ridge that flares backward from the face, which serves to protect the neck of the
beast. (HTTE, TTSB)
Katarn, Kyle
Kyle Katarn was born to a farming family on Sulon, and was raised with the ideals of hard work and perseverence. When he was old
enough, he enrolled in the Academy for two reasons. First, it would allow him to pursue his own military interests. Second, he felt that it
would help his father gain prosperity and recognition. While he was at the Academy, Kyle's family - and all of Sulon - were destroyed in
an Imperial invasion. The Empire's agents at the Academy blamed the attack on the Alliance, spreading the seeds of hatred for the
Alliance. They failed to cultivate them, though, when they denied Kyle funeral leave. Thus, he grew to hate the Empire equally.
As the Empire became more crystallized, Kyle became more and more frustrated with his service to it. When he encountered the
captive Jan Ors, she persuaded him to help her escape. The persuasion came at a time when Kyle was most disheartened, and so he
freed her and took up the life of a mercenary. He worked for anyone who would pay him, since he had no love for the Empire or the
Alliance. However, Jan Ors petitioned Mon Mothma to seek out and hire Kyle Katarn, for she recognized in him the potential ally he
could be. Mon Mothma agreed. His first mission was part of Operation Skyhook. He was asked to single-handedly infiltrate the secret
Imperial base on Danuta and steal the plans to the original Death Star. He succeeded, escaping the base and turning the plans over to
the Alliance. He stayed with the Alliance, and was the agent responsible for obtaining early clues to the Empire's Darktrooper
development program. Katarn, again working alone, discovered the location of several manufacturing facilities and the main
Darktrooper base - the Arc Hammer - and was able to defeat Rom Mohc in one-on-one combat to halt the Darktrooper development
and destroy the Arc Hammer. When Katarn returned from these missions, he was asked to train a group of crack Alliance commandos
for undercover missions such as Operation Skyhook. Kyle agreed, and quickly formed a tight-knit group of agents. When Kyle retired
from service, one of the commandos - Lieutenant Page - took over as the leader of the commando squad. Sometime afterward, Kyle
was visited by the spirit of Rahn, and told of the Jedi heritage of his father. Many years before, Kyle’s father had helped a Jedi Master
close of the Valley of the Souls. When the Dark Jedi Jerec tried to enter the Valley, Rahn managed to penetrate the physical world and
enlist Kyle’s help in defeating Jerec and his minions. (DF, SWSB, DA, DF2)
Katarn, Morgan
this native of Sulon was Kyle Katarn's father. He was also quite sensitive to the Force, but was untrained. Morgan retired at about the
time Kyle enrolled in the Academy. Shortly afterward, the Empire subjugated Sulon. Morgan couldn't sit back and watch his world
destroyed, so he joined the Alliance. During the evacuation of his friends and his assisting the Alliance, Morgan learned of the location
of the Valley of the Jedi. He used many tricks to hide the location of the Valley from evil eyes, including creating a map to its planet in
the ceiling tiles of his house. He told his good friend Qu Rahn about his discovery, for Rahn was also searching for its location. Rahn
recognized the strength of the Force in Morgan, and realized that Kyle would eventually become a Jedi. Rahn entrusted his lightsaber
to Morgan to give to Kyle, so that he could locate the Valley and protect it from Dark Jedi. After Rahn's death at Jerec's hands, Jerec
who travelled to Sulon and killed Morgan and stole the tiles. (DF2)
Katarn Commandos
the crack squadron of guerilla warriors who were teamed with the former mercenary Kyle Katarn during the early days of the Galactic
Civil War. When Katarn retired from active duty, Page rose from the ranks to become the leader of the group. Their name changed to

Katharsis
about twelve years before the Battle of Naboo, this form of entertainment became overwhlemingly popular on the planet Telos.
Ostensibly a lottery mixed with betting on the outcome of several physical challenges, Katharsis allowed every native of Telos the
chance to become incredibly wealthy with each round of play. Telosians gathered in huge domes scattered across the planet, where
live coverage of the events was piped onto huge screens, while realtime updates on odds were posted on smaller terminals In the
opening phase, all Telosians bet on the outcome of short battles and challenges to the players. The payouts were good, but only led up
to the main event in which three natives were allowed to bet on the outcome of the final event. The winner, if they bet properly, won a
huge award. All proceeds from Katharsis, which was managed by the corporation UniFy, were said to go directly into a fund which
helped preserve the natural beauty of Telos. In reality, Katharsis was simplyu a way for the former Jedi Knight Xanatos to obtain a
steady income of credits to fund his illegal mining operations. After Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi exposed Xanatos' plans,
Katharsis was outlawed on Telos. (DOR)
Katharsis Day

Kathol Outback
a wild area of space located in Kathol Sector, across the Marcol Void from more populated areas. Much of the Outback is unexplored,
although there are several small settlements maintained by colonists, refugees, criminals, and religious cults. Most of the settlements
were unaware of the events in the rest of the galaxy, and there were several colonies which had never heard of any government but the
Old Republic. (SOP, KO)
Kathol Republic
this collection of ten star systems found in the Kathol Outback was created by a group of renegade politicians who saw that the Old
Republic was crumbling and chose to set up their own government. They settled on fourteen worlds, twelve of which required some
terraforming in order to be habitable. In order to ensure that all members worlds would be adequately defended in case of attack, all
member worlds maintain a mutual defense pact. The seat of the Republic's government is located on the moon Dayark. Each member
planet of the Republic elects eleven senators to represent them in the Republic’s government, regardless of the individual populations.
One senator from each planet is nominated for the position of president of the Republic, and this position is then voted on by all the
worlds. (KO)
Kathol Rift
this collection of young suns and nebulous gas clouds forms the boundary of the Kathol Outback, along with the Marcol Void. No one

one of the Emperor Palpatine's Dark Side Elite, Katth was activated by Operation Shadow Hand. Sedriss commissioned Katth and
Baddon Fass to perform a number of activities on Nar Shaddaa. First, they were to enlist the aid of Boba Fett in tracking down the
Millennium Falcon. Second, they were to hunt down and destroy Vima-Da-Boda. Third, they were to report on the Falcon's
whereabouts so that Sedriss could capture it. Katth and Fass, both grizzled veterans of Palpatine's rule, failed on all counts, as Boba
Fett escaped them, and they were both unable to capture the Falcon. Katth perished aboard his Star Destroyer Invincible when it
mistakenly locked onto Nar Shaddaa's control tower with its tractor beam. The collision destroyed the capital ship and all its crew. (DE2)

ancient ziggurats, while a Shi'ido loyal to the Empire was put in his place. The Shi'ido then conducted experiments on the Gobindi
Virus, hoping to use it as a weapon for the Empire. Some weeks later, Mammon Hoole arrived on Gobindi to enlist Kavafi's help in
curing Zak Arranda, but discovered the Shi'ido in Kavafi's place. The false Kavafi was exposed and the real doctor freed, and Hoole
was able to halt the futher development of the Gobindi Virus. (GOF3)

known for his fair, albeit high, prices and excellent customer service, and most of his customers come back again for new service.
Kaylo also handled the day-to-day operations of The Pits, since Pinnix was usually off on mysterious personal business. Kaylo was a
long-time friend of Yin Vocta, and loved to find ways to use Vector Technologies devices in his work. Despite his fair prices and
apparently slim margins, Kaylo stills turned a hefty profit. What was unknown to most beings was that Kaylo was using slave labor to
perform most of the work, and he was obtaining stolen parts from the Razers swoop gang in return for other favors. (WSV)

Kazellis Corporation
manufacturers of freighters and other large starships, Kazellis was based in Kathol Sector. As their designs became more popular,
Kazellis began advertising and selling on Kal'Shebbol and Eriadu, where they met with stern opposition from the Empire. As Moff
Kentor Sarne grew in power, he demanded that Kazellis supply him with ships at a huge discount. Kazellis refused, not knowing the full
power behind the Empire. In short order, Kazellis was nationalized by the Empire, and its entire management chain was executed or
imprisoned. (SS)

mouths, the kdak have nine eyes. The kdak exudes a strange-smelling slime as it travels. (CSWEA)
Ke Daiv
this Blood Carver was part of a well-known political family, but was exiled from his family for killing his childhood friend during a hunting
expedition. Adopted as an orphan, Ke Daiv learned that his benefactor's son was prophecied to die in battle. The son was kept away
from any form of combat. However, the youth still had to kill a wild feragriff to prove his adulthood, so they were sent to a preserve on
one of Coruscant's moons to kill the beast. Unfortunately, the prophecy came true when one of Ke Daiv's shots missed the feragriff and
instead killed the other youth. His benefactor cursed him and exiled him. He found work with the Trade Federation as an assassin, and
was part of a small group hired to kill Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker as a form of revenge for the Federation's loss of control
following the Battle of Naboo. Ke Daiv tried to kill Anakin during a garbage pit race three years after the battle, but failed when Obi-Wan
intervened. Ke Daiv was then hired by Wilhuff Tarkin to accompany Raith Sienar to Zonama Sekot. While there, Sienar told Ke Daiv of
Tarkin's xenophobia, and tried to get the Blood Carver to work toward his own goals. Ke Daiv agreed with Sienar, and attempted to
bond with his own Sekotan starship. However, the lifeforms of the planet rejected him, and Ke Daiv was forced to try and steal the ship
acquired by Anakin and Obi-Wan. Ke Daiv failed to obtain the ship, and was killed in battle when Anakin unleashed an intense wave of
Force energy at him. It was the first time Anakin had been forced to kill another being with the Force, and he greatly regretted it. (RP)
ke Fanax, Depird
this Adumari man was the brother of Jeapird ke Fanax. When his brother was killed while in combat with Cheriss ke Hanadi during the
Cartann Ground Championships, Depird sought to avenge not only his brother but the reputation of pilots. In the duel, which was
staged for the entertainment of Wedge Antilles and his pilots, Cheriss defeated Depird soundly. She offered his life to Wedge as a sign
of respect and honor. Wedge, however, thought the loss of life was too blatant. Instead of having Depird killed, he let the man live,
hoping that Depird would learn from his pain and his mistakes to fight better another time. (SOA)
ke Fanax, Jeapird
this man was defeated by Cheriss ke Hanadi in the Cartann Ground Championships, just before the New Republic first contacted
Adumar. Jeapird was one of the few Adumari pilots who had real skill with the blastsword. His defeat was unusual in that he lost to a
woman who was also not a fighter pilot. (SOA)
ke Hanadi, Cheriss
this Adumari woman served as Wedge Antilles' guide, during the time he spent in Cartann during the negotiations between Adumar and
the New Republic. She was a skilled fighter, but suffered from vertigo and could gain honor among her fellow Adumari as a pilot. She
was born to parents of the working class, and spent part of her youth working in an underground food processing plant. her mother had
worked there, before she died from brownloung. Many Admuri felt she was nothing more than a gutter-fighter who retained favor in the
court by winning her challenges. She was the victor in the Cartann Ground Championship just before the New Republic first contacted
the Adumari, and received several challenges from pilots because of it. She managed to meet every challenge, and hoped to impress
Wedge while doing so. However, Wedge did not return her affection, since he was in love with Iella Wessiri. Cherris tried to further
impress him by accepting a string of challenges, but he convinced her to back out when she was nearly killed. Eventually, Cheriss
understood what Wedge had to say, and simply worked with him to bring about changes in Adumari society. When Wedge was exiled
from Cartann by perator Pekaelic ke Teldan, who was given false information by Tomer Darpen, Cheriss followed him to the
Yedagonian Confederacy, and helped him prepare for the civil war with Cartann. She proved her combat skills once again, and when
the Adumari agreed to join the New Republic, Wedge helped her gain admission to the Academy. He also introduced her to a
prescription drug which helped her overcome her vertigo. She opted to join the Republic's armed forces and train as a pilot, becaused
she knew that her role in helping the Yedagon would prevent her from returning to her home nation of Cartann. (SOA)

this Adumari man lived next door to Fiana Novarr, alias Iella Wessiri. He was challenged to a duel and killed by Irasal ke Voltin. (SOA)
ke Mattino, Liak
a decorated Adumari pilot, Captain ke Mattino led the Strike the Moons Flightknife. He was the first to challenge Wedge Antilles and
Red Flight in simulated - rather then live-fire - combat, but his flightknife was soundly defeated. When Wedge offered them another
chance to duel, ke Mattino accepted despite the fact that a second challenge was not a normal protocol. In the end, the Strike the
Moons learned a lot about New Republic fighter tactics. He and his pilots later joined Red Flight at the Giltella Air Base to discuss
tactics and the results of their simulated combat. In the wake of the treacherous actions of Tomer Darpen, ke Mattino led the Strike the
Moons Flightknife on a mission to escort Wedge and Red Flight out of Cartann and to the Yedagonian nation. He and his Flightknife
defected, and assisted the Yedagonian forces in defeating Cartann. Unfortunately, Liak was killed in the battle. (SOA)
ke Olean
this is one of Cartann City's families. (SOA)
ke Rassa, Balass
this 22-year-old Adumari man was the eldest son of perator Pekaelic ke Teldan. Following Adumari custom, he was sent away to live
with a surrogate family at an early age, protecting him from the many challenges and duels which would have been levelled at him if his
true identity were known. He became an excellent pilot, a trait noted by Wedge Antilles when the New Republic sought to bring the
planet Adumar into its membership. Balass was a quick study, and eagerly picked up on the notion of honor being an internal feeling,
rather than an external show of worthiness. He also understood the notion of doing good for the betterment of others, rather than using
one's accomplishments to further one's own goals. However, when Pekaelic ke Teldan was forced to initiate a civil war among Adumar'
nations by the urgings of Tomer Darpen, he found himself defeated by the other nations and disgraced. By Adumari custom, Pekaelic
should have been killed by the victor, which happened to be Wedge. Instead, Wedge offered Pekaelic the chance to abdicate his throne
and leave the political scene. Once Pekaelic discovered that Balass had survived the war, he offered the perator's title to Balass.
Balass agreed, and was named perator in his father's place. Balass retook the surname ke Teldan, and vowed to work fairly and
equally with the other Adumari perators to create a world government and join the New Republic. (SOA)
ke Seiufere, Phalle
this Adumari pilot challenged Cheriss ke Hanadi to a duel, shortly after she had defeated Eneboros ke Shalapan. She accepted the
challenge, and barely defeated him in combat. She claimed that these were challenges that she had ignored while escorting Wedge
Antilles and Red Flight in the city of Cartann, but the challenges were actually an effort to prove herself worthy of Wedge's affection and
to redeem herself in the eyes of the perator, Pekaelic ke Teldan. (SOA)
ke Sekae, Thanaer
this Adumari pilot challenged Cheriss ke Hanadi to a duel, shortly after she had defeated Eneboros ke Shalapan and Phalle ke Seiufere
in combat. Her third challenge in less than a day, she was weary and injured at the start of the fight. She had claimed to be accepted
challenges that had remained unfulfilled during her time as Wedge Antilles' escort through Cartann City. In reality, she was trying to
please Wedge and the perator, Pekaelic ke Teldan. Thanaer quickly defeated Cheriss, but her life was spared when Wes Janson
challenged Thanaer to a duel for her life. While not an accepted motivation for a duel, Thanaer accepted and was soundly defeated by
Wes and his hand-to-hand combat tactics. Wes claimed his challenge and victory was an "engagement present" to Wedge and Iella
Wessiri. (SOA)
ke Shalapan, Eneboros

ke Teldan, Pekaelic
this Adumari was the perator of the city of Cartann when the planet was first contacted by the New Republic. Tomer Darpen quickly
began manipulating ke Teldan, hoping to sway the perator to join the New Republic instead of the Empire. Unknowing of Darpen's
schemes, ke Teldan was drawn into a web of deceit which forced him to declare Cartann the seat of the world government which was
required for entry into the Republic. This declaration, made without the consent of any of the other perators on the planet, initiated a
civil war which ended in defeat for Cartann. Wedge Antilles, which led the forces of the Yedagonian Confederacy against Cartann,
refused to execute ke Teldan, as was demanded by Adumari custom. Instead, Wedge allowed ke Teldan to abdicate his throne to his
son, Balass ke Rassa. (SOA)

ke Unthos, Uliaff
this Adumari man served as Cartann's Minister of Notifications under perator Pekaelic ke Teldan. In this role, Uliaff's office was

setting the policies by which the notification letters would be written and sent. (SOA)

this man, a native of the planet Adumar, was the first Adumari pilot to challenge Wedge Antilles and his pilots when they arrived at

an orphaned Trianii, Keeheen was adopted by his aunt after an "accidental" dump of toxic waste began killing his family and ruining
their farm. Keeheen watched with interest as the Trianii Rangers moved in to apprehend the culprits, and he decided that he would
become a Ranger. He excelled in his studies, and quickly surpassed his classmates. He became the youngest commissioned Ranger
in the history of the service. During his stay on Trian, he met and fell in love with Atuarre. He proposed to her the first time they met, but
she politely turned him down. Keeheen wouldn't take "no" for an answer, and maintained close ties to her. Atuarre eventually fell in love
with him, and they were soon married. Atuarre also began training as a Ranger, and they were moved to Fibuli. There, Atuarre gave
birth to their only child, Pakka. Then, the Corporate Sector Authority annexed Fibuli and rounded up any dissenters. Keeheen was
among the loudest, and he was taken prisoner, along with Pakka. The Authority tortured Pakka in front of his eyes, but he resisted their

Keejin
this unusual creature inhabits the caves of a number of worlds, including Yavin 4 and Thila. Known to many explorers as the cave
crawler, this strange beast is more of a fright than a threat. They can grow to lengths of two meters, and spend most of their life
dwelling in deep caves where they scavenge for food. Their ability to filter out the correct elements in their air supply has given them the
ability to exist in a variety of environments, including the vacuum of deep space. Specimens have even been found inside space slugs
and miner's horrors. Their long bodies are supported by two stump-like arms, and they crawl with the help of two claws on each "hand."
As these claws scrape along the ground, they create an eerie sound which disconcerts most explorers because you can hear the
creature well before they see it - if they ever see it. (COG)

Keeper
this form of Yuuzhan Vong starship was developed during their attempt to take control of the galaxy. Its development came shortly after
the New Republic learned to pour intense amounts of firepower into a dovin basal, weakening the creature and stealing power from
weapons systems. In this way, the Republic managed to destroy a number of Yuuzhan Vong warships. The keeper was well-protected,
and contained a large dovin basal. The keeper was the attached to another, larger, Yuuzhan Vong warship, to act as its shielding and
protection. In this way, the larger ship was protected from enemy fire by a stronger shield, and their weapons didn't lose power when

Keeper Subdermal Control System
this piece of exotic technology was produced by Vector Technologies. Known in the catalogs as the AA-2, this system involved the use
of surgically-implanted beacons and a tracker unit. Developed for the maintenance of slave labor pools, the Keeper system provides its
user with a way to keep slaves from escaping. The beacon provided the tracking unit with an exact location of the slave, and contained
a dose of an exotic neurotoxin which could be injected into the slave's system in the event of an escape attempt. The slave owner could
activate the neurotoxin by signalling the beacon from the tracker. If the slave managed to escape beyond the range of the tracker, the
beacon would lose its signal and release the neurotoxin automatically. (WSV)

were allowed to visit the planet. There was only a single city on the planet at the time, which was divided into circles of expertise.
Outside the city, all land was given over to food and animal cultivation. The humans who lived on the planet remained apart until the
child O-Lana was born. The Jedi Knights were contacted by her parents, and the child was eventually brought to Coruscant. The
Keganites soon discovered that the galaxy around them was a wondrous place, and overthrew the government to join the Old Republic.

Lex had been conscripted in the Imperial military after a drinking and bragging session in a Corellian bar left him too hungover to
remember how he had gotten there. He proved himself tougher, faster, and better than his fellow soldiers, but this also earned him their
th
hatred. Lex was assigned to the 676 Light Support Scouts to keep him out of the way, and took the first chance he could find to sneak
away and join the world of freelance soldiers. He kept and wore a modified suit of scout trooper armor, which had been dulled and
therma-painted to match the surroundings in which he worked. Kempo managed to escape from firefights that no being could have

Ken
a small child discovered by an unknown Jedi Knight, Ken was raised by the DJ-88 caretaker droid in the Lost Coty of the Jedi. His
origins have been kept a secret, but he has fairly good control of the Force. As long as he can remember, he has worn a birthstone on a
silver chain, although its origins are unknown to him as well. The stone is a hemispherical piece of silver crystal. He is restricted to living
within the limits of the Lost City until he is old enough and experienced enough to survive by himself. Kadann foresaw that Ken would
be able to bring Trioculus down, which was a prophecy fulfilled when Ken learned about Trioculus by secretly reading DJ-88's files on
the Slavelord. He was 12 years old when Luke Skywalker took him out of the Lost City and trained him. His name, Ken, is taken from
his mother's name, for Ken is the child of the Jedi woman Kendalina. He is sought later by Kadann, who believes he can obtain the
location of the Lost City of the Jedi from Ken. Kadann, in an effort to make Ken give him the location of the green marble entrance,
reveals a stone which fits perfectly with Ken's birthsone. Once inside the City, Kadann and DJ-88 reveal that Ken is the child of
Kendalina and Triclops. Kendalina wanted Ken hidden from Palpatine, who was in fact Ken's grandfather, so she had someone hide
him in the Lost City City of the Jedi. (LCJ, ZHR, PDS)

Kenit, Vocis
this Imperial Captain was in command of the Far Orbit when Dhas Vedij and his followers mutinied. Kenit was a native of Hallu Sector,
and formerly served on the Semqi Pefis and at Thomquizarr Naval Base. He proved himself to be to powerful and too well-connected to
remain in any one position for very long, and was named Captain of the Far Orbit just twelve years after joining the Imperial Academy
on Lianna. He spent much of his time on the Far Orbit hunting down pirates, often wiping out entire fleets when a simple victory would
have sufficed. Kenit was not well-respected by his crew, being more of a bully and a dictator than a captain and mentor. The mutineers
took control of the frigate and blasted Kenit and his officers into space in an escape pod. After being recovered, Kenit was visited by
Sate Pestage, who delivered the message that he was to be executed for failing to avoid the mutiny.His only chance for redemtpion
was to bring in the Far Orbit and her crew. Kenit vowed to bring Vedij and his crew to justice, but failed in several attempts. Emperor
Palpatine, upset with the way in which the Far Orbit allied itself with the Alliance, executed Kenit himself. (FOP)
Kenlin, Bors

Kennede
this elderly man served as Emperor Palpatine's training Master at the Royal Imperial Guard facility on Yinchorr. He trained Kir Kanos
and Carnor Jax, and was killed by Jax's stormtroopers on Yinchorr following the death of Emperor Palpatine's last clone. However, his
son Tav remained loyal to Kanos, after the former Royal Guard brought news of his father's death. Kennede's son was, by that time, a
member of the New Republic, having seen that the Empire his father loved was no longer in existence. (CE, CE2)
Kennede, Tav
this man was the son of Master Kennede, the man who trained Royal Imperial Guards Carnor Jax and Kir Kanos. He had joined the
New Republic, believing that the Empire his father had supported no longer existed. After Kanos brought word of his father's death at
the hands of Carnor Jax, the younger Kennede threw his loyalty to Kir Kanos. He accompanied Kanos on a misison to rescue Mirith
Sinn from the Zanzibar on the planet Xo, and after being signalled by Kanos to retrieve them, Kennede was able rescue Mirith. Kanos
was captured by the Zanzibar before the younger Kennede could rescue him. Later, after Kanos escaped from the Zanzibar and
Grappa the Hutt, he was reunited with Kennede when they returned the real Feena D'Asta to her father. When Xandel Carivus ordered
his forces to kill the Baron, Kennede took a blaster bolt which was meant for the Baron. It struck his shoulder, but he survived the injury.
In the aftermath of Xandel Carivus' execution, Tav remained with Baron D'Asta as an aide, although he remained at Kanos' back and
call. (CE2)
Kenobi Medallion
this award, presented by the Alliance, was bestowed upon those individuals who sacrificed everything for the elimination of the New
Order. Thus, the award was only given posthumously. Jek Porkins was one of the first recipients of the award, for his heroic actions in
the Battle of Yavin. (MTS)
Kenobi Offensive
a series of military maneuvers employed by Obi-wan Kenobi, when he was a general with the Old Republic. The Offensive revolved
around the use of a large number of smaller ships, which executing small attacks on the enemy fleet in an effort to draw a portion of the
fleet out of formation. Once out of formation, the enemy ships could be destroyed by a reserve offensive task force, which could then
rush behind enemy lines through the hole created in the main formation. In theory, the enemy’s ships would be unable to fire on
attacking ships as they passed through the line, because any stray fire would strike their own ships. Over time, Alliance military leaders
simplified the strategy, simply placing ships where the enemy wouldn’t expect them to be, and then attacking the main enemy force
from within. (TB, TBSB)
Kenow
a Colonel in Klyn Shanga's rag-tag militia, Kenow was charged with intercepting Vuffi Raa on Oseon 6845. Unfortunately, Kenow was

the Battle of Heg. He was purchased by Quintarus Returyl on Deysum III, but was later rescued by the Alliance agents who were
investigating the construction of an Imperial supply station the Bissilirus System. (GMK)
Kentra
a species of winged, fur-covered aliens native to the planet Orellon II. The average Kentra stood more than two meters tall, and their
bodies were humanoid in form. Their large wings were bat-like in form, but were distinct from their arms. The Kentra social structure
was based on the idea of nests, which were formed from extended families and local village folk. Nests were organized into clans, and
clans were organized into flocks. Each flock was ultimately based on the race of Kentra which formed it. There were four specific racial
groups: jungle Kentra, spotted Kentra, striped Kentra, and the brown folk Kentra. It is believed that they chose to name themselves
Kentra after the arrival of Michael Tandre to Orellon II. Tandre was forced to land his ship, the Alpha Kentrum, on the planet,and he
became a sort of spiritual leader for the Kentra. (SWAJ, AE)
Keoulkeech
this grizzled Ewok shaman served under Chief Chirpa during the Battle of Endor. Following the struggle to free Endor, Keoulkeech set

Kepporra, Wynt
this man, a native of the planet Alderaan, attended the Imperial Academy on Prefsbelt IV at the same time as Delak Krennel. A member
of the Academy's Thespian Union, he was home on leave when the planet was destroyed by the first Death Star, and was killed. Later,
as Krennel rose to power and tried to disrupt the workings of the early New Republic, he claimed that Kepporra had been a good friend,
when in fact they rarely met and had little interaction on Prefsbelt IV. In a broadcasted message, Krennel shed a fake tear for
Kepporra's death, in an effort to win over dishomed Alderaanians from the Republic. This plan was the idea of Ysanne Isard's clone,
who hoped to establish a rift between the human and non-human races of the Republic. (IR)
Kepzen, Lev
this Imperial Navy Captain was in command of the frigate Feral when it captured the Solar Terrors pirate gang. (FOP)
Kerane's Folly
named after a mad prospector named Kerane, this legendary asteroid in the Hoth system is reportedly composed of pure platinum.
Kerane was the first to locate the asteroid, and even brought back a small sample to verify its composition. However, when Kerane
returned to the asteroid belt to recover the asteroid, he was never able to find it. He went mad in his frustrating search, and the
asteroid's location remains a mystery. (ISU)

Kerensik
a frozen planet on which humans dwell in enclaves. (DESB)
Kerensiki Trees
these tall trees, native to the planet Kerensik, have large spines instead of leaves. (DESB)
Kerest
this dying planet is the homeworld of the Kerestian race. The planet, located far from many trade routes within the Sluis Sector, has
been in an ice age ever since the Kerestian sun underwent strange changes. The sun's power was greatly reduced, and the amount of
light and heat reaching Kerest was greatly diminished. As a result, the Kerestions were forced to resort to any means possible to
survive. This has created two unique groups of Kerestians: the savage descendants of those who survived on Kerest, and the less
intense descendants of off-world Kerestians. The planet was discovered by exploration vessels of the House of Tagge. (GG12)
Kerestian
an alien race hailing from the planet Kerest, the Kerestians have evolved into savage hunters of great cunning and skill. They are tall,
powerfully-built humanoids with convoluted ridges on their foreheads. Two thin strips of hair grow in a strange double widow's peak
from the ridges, and the strips continue down the Kerestian's back. Their nose is defined by a single, vertical slit above their mouth, and
a row of breather tubes runs along their cheekbones. Their small ears are holes located at the base of the skull, and are surrounded by
folds of skin. The breather tubes were once used for long-range, high-frequency communication, but that ability has been lost over time.
They are methodical, deliberate hunters, and are thought to be humorless. However, a recent discovery of a Kerestian colony ship has
turned up ancient members of the species suspended in time. When they were revived, these colonists showed none of the current
Kerestian violence or deliberateness. It has been surmised that the harsh conditions of the planet Kerest forced subsequent
generations of Kerestians to evolve into the vicious hunters they are today. They had mastered repulsorlift technology and sub-light
space travel before Kerest was nearly destroyed as its sun began to convulse and contract. Kerest was reduced to a frozen wasteland.
This caused the ancient Kerestians to "devolve" into barbarians and hunters. Their technology has subsequently reverted to stone-age
levels. (GG12)
Kerf

Kerioth, Eisen
this Imperial Moff controlled his sector from a base on the planet Doldur. He walked with a limp, a reminder of his service in the Imperial
aremed forces. When he discovered that Strephan I'att had developed a way to augment the protective properties of stormtrooper
armor, he decided that he could steal the designs and take credit for them himself. The Moff had both Strephan and his wife, Augusta,
executed before taking the designs for his own. He returned to Doldur, and began working on perfecting the system, but he lacked a
piece of the puzzle: several c-boards stolen by Strephan's granddaughter, Tinian, as she escaped from Kerioth's killing spree. (TFE)
Kerl
Kerl was a member of Echo Flight, during the period leading up to the Battle of Naboo. Kerl's Naboo Police Cruiser was damaged

this species of grazing, herd animal was native to the planet Rordak, and was a staple in the diet of the Viska. (PG1)
Kessel
a planet with large spice mining operation, Kessel is the second and primary world in the Kessel System, far out in the Outer Rim. It has
no natural atmosphere, so one is generated by huge processors. It has one moon. Kessel is doomed to be swallowed by the nearby
Maw in the next few millennia, as the intense gravity of the multiple black holes draw it in. It was used as an Imperial penal colony, with
an Imperial garrison stationed on the moon. The prisoners were used as spice miners. The miners work in near-absolute darkness, so
as not to activate the spice. When Emperor Palpatine died at Endor, the Imperials stationed there were not prepared for autonomy.
When the prisoners heard about the death of the Emperor, they revolted against the Imperial guards, overthrowing them and
establishing control of the planet and the production of spice. Moruth Doole, a prisoner who had risen to the top of the Imperial's list,
became the de facto ruler of the mines. He continued to use the lowest of the prisoners as spice miners, keeping a handful of the
upper-level prisoners as advisors and crew chiefs. Doole had the atmospheric production reduced in an effort to save money; he felt
that since the prisoners worked underground, an above-ground atmosphere was a frivolous waste of money. Doole's reign over the
mines ended just after he shot Han Solo down over the planet. Solo escaped through the Maw, only to find the Maw Installation. His
escape back through the Maw drew Daala's Imperial fleet through it as well, and his escape drew Daala's ire. She lashed out at Doole's
Navy in retaliation, destroying 90% of it. When Tol Sivron and the remaining Installation crew fled through the Maw in the prototype
Death Star, they used Kessel as a target for the untested superlaser. They succeeded only in destroying the garrison moon. Lando and
Mara Jade tried to reopen the mines, but were unsuccessful at making the operation profitable. Kessel orbits the star Kessa once every
322 local days. Each day lasts about 26 standard hours. Note that Rebellion states that Kessel is located in the Calaron Sector, while
The Hutt Gambit says it’s in the Kessel Sector. Also note that Class Star Wars: The Early Adventures depicts Kessel as a beautiful,
temperate world of strange forests of huge fungi. The planet is ravaged by Captain Bzorn, who controlled the Ionic Ring, but it is
unclear if the devastation resulted in the desolate world seen in the Jedi Academy Trilogy. (SW, JS, COTF, AC, CSWEA, JASB, REB,
THG)
Kessel Krusher
this was the stage name used by Resik, during his stint as a professional wrestler. (CRO)
Kessel Run
1) an 18-parsec smuggling route that passes near The Maw, the Kessel Run was used by smugglers to bypass Imperial ships guarding
the movement of spice from Kessel's mines. The completion of the run is a source of pride and accomplishment among smugglers, who
constantly try to outdo each other. By moving closer to the black holes of the Maw, a starhsip pilot can trim parsecs from the Run while
increasing the difficulty of the trip. The official record for completing the run is held by Han Solo and Chewbacca aboard the Millennium
Falcon, in 11.5 parsecs. BoShek claims to have beaten that record, but without a full cargo to weigh him down. (SW, TME, JS, JASB)

Keto, Satal
a member of the Tetan Elite, Satal Keto and his cousin, Aleema, were drawn to the Dark Side energies that were present in the galaxy
some 4,000 years before the Galactic Civil War. They formed the Dark Side worshippers known as the Krath. They were drawn to the
Dark Side so fully that they crossed the galaxy to Coruscant, where they entered the Galactic Museum and stole a number of Sith
manuscripts and artifacts. They then traveled to Onderon, in an effort to learn more about the artifacts from the Naddists there. Satal
was shown how to use the Sith artifacts by King Ommin, who was later killed by the spirit of Freedon Nadd. Nadd's spirit then chose
Satal and Aleema to be his new living emmissaries, providing them with Sith swords. The two returned to the Tetan star system, where
they overthrew the Carbonite Mining Guild with help from the Dark Jedi and the military just before the Great Sith War. He and Aleema
froze their parents in carbonite after they overtook the guild. When Ulic Qel-Droma infiltrated the Krath in an effort to eradicate the Sith
warriors, Satal poisoned him with Sith drugs in order to keep the Jedi from turning on the Krath. However, the poison only focused Ulic's
powers, and in a pitched lightsaber duel, Aleema tells Ulic that it was Satal who ordered the attack on Deneba which killed Master Arca.
Ulic's fury rose even higher, and he killed Satal before turning on the Jedi. (FNU, DA, DLS)

Kettch
this was the name of a non-existent Ewok who applied for a position in Wraith Squadron. He was originally the creation of Wes Janson,
who tried to pull a fast on one Wedge Antilles. Wedge vowed to get revenge, but Kettch took on a life of his own. He continually showed
up in the cockpit of Wedge's X-Wing when he least expected it, and served as the squadron's unofficial mascot until the Wraiths
became pirates in order to attract the attention of Warlord Zsinj. When the Wraiths were chosen to assist in the stealing of the Razor's
Kiss, Wedge used the stuffed dummy of Kettch to hide his own identity, and Kettch quickly became one of the best pilots in the Hawk-
bat pirate squadron. When word leaked out that the Hawk-bats had an Ewok pilot, Zsinj suspected that he had escaped from the
Binring Biomedical facilty's Epsilon Wing along with Voort saBinring. This vexed him, and forced him to move the facility from Saffalore
to a position on the Iron Fist for security reasons. (WS, IF, SOC)
Kettch's Drill
this starfighter maneuver, developed by Wraith Squadron, was designed to gain surprise whenever a squadron was opposed by two or
more waves of enemy starfighters. Instead of swinging around and engaging the first wave of enemies in a dogfight, the drill involved
the squadron plowing straight through to the second wave, taking as many of the first wave as possible in the fly-by. The dogfighting
would then begin with the second wave survivors, and would eventually collect the remaining ships from the first wave. (IF)
Kettemoor
this New Republic Sacheen-class light escort vessel was part of the fleet sent, under the command of Pakkpekatt, to intercept the

sorts for her. After the death of Thrawn, he returned to his planet to help rebuilt it. (HTTE, DFR, DFRC)
Khaddar, Ob
this outspoken radical at Alderaan University was a native Alderaanian grass painter who wass most famous for a painting he did to
commemorate the arrival of Emperor Palpatine on Alderaan. He worked alone, allowing no one to interfere with his vision. When the
spring rains soaked the painting, it blossomed with color and life, depicting the Emperor as a benevolent ruler. However, when
Palpatine arrived to look at the grass painting, Ob Khaddar's final stroke was revealed. On the very day Palpatine arrived, black lilies
began to bloom while the other colored flowers began to wither and die. The painting seen by the Emperor was of a withered, ugly
monster, and Palpatine was outraged and ordered the entire painting burned. By the time Palpatine arrived, though, Khaddar had
already fled the planet. He carries a death mark on his head, but has never been found. (ISU)

this man was a native of Derilyn, and worked at the Imperial shipyards near Sluis Van during the Galactic Civil War. When he learned of
the Sixty Hour War and the destruction of the city of Paran, he learned that his family had been killed in the assault. He was granted
emergency leave to return to Derilyn, and defected to the underground resistance on Derilyn. He later joined the Friends of Paran, in an
effort to inspire the natives of Derilyn to fight back against the Empire (OE).

was on this moon that Naga Sadow had built his primary fortress. (GAS)
Kharr
this ancient Cathar wiseman was sought out by Sylvar when she returned to her homeworld, after nearly inciting a Twi'lek clan war

Khil
an ancient race that joined the Old Republic millenia ago, the Khil are humanoids characterized by their unique facial structure. Their
large heads are hairless, and seem to lack jaws. Just below their noses is a mass of fleshy tendrils known as hullepi. These strands of
flesh are among the most important organs in the Khil body, as they are used for eating, drinking, breathing, and communication. The
hullepi are used to breathe the air of their home planet, Belnar. As a by-product of breathing, the hullepi strain microscopic proteins and
moisture from the air. This serves as the Khil's food. Any waste products thus ingested are expelled by sneezing. They can also absorb
liquids through the hullepi, prefering juices to supplement the airborne proteins they consume. By breathing through hullepi of various
sizes, the Khil can also communicate, via a series of musical whistles and songs. A dedicated and driven race, the Khil have been
members of the Old Republic for longer than anyone could remember. They spread throughout several colony worlds and systems after
discovering the ability to travel through space. When Palpatine instituted the New Order, the Khil were outraged and appalled. They
worked to support the Alliance in any way possible, with an eye for subtlety. (GG12)
Khiss
this Dug worked for Sebulba, helping to traffick the slaves that the podracer bought and sold on the side. Khiss was known among the
less-reputable of the galaxy's wealthy for his ability to obtain rare or unusual slave species, such as Ghostlings. Khiss was killed when
he was eaten by a deneba bush in Gardulla the Hutt's hidden underground oasis. Khiss had been working with Sebulba to recapture
the Ghostlings, as well as Pala Kwi'teksa and Anakin Skywalker. Pala lured Khiss close to the bush, which struck with blinding speed
and cpatured Khiss before he could scream out a warning. (E1A5, E1A7)
Kho Nai
this is the homeworld of the Khotta. (BTS)
Khoan
an alien race noticeable by their size, the average Khoan is shorter than a human but weighs twice as much as a Wookiee. Their yellow

Khoehng
this Old Corellian word means “king.” (SWJ8)
Khoehng Heights
located some five kilometers outside the settlement of Kovit, on the planet Trulalis, Khoehng Heights was named for the first play ever
performed in its outdoor theater, Uhl Eharl Khoehng. The theater had been constructed in the side of a mountain. By the end of the Old
Republic, the Heights had become overgrown from abandonment and neglect, although the theater itself remained largely intact.

Kholes
this world was a strong supporter of the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. However, it was razed by the Imperial starfleet for its
sympathies. (CSWEA)
Kholm-grass
the only plant that manages to survive on Honoghr, though it has been altered from its original form by the Empire to prohibit the growth
of other plant species. (DFR)
Khomm
the homeworld of Dorsk 81 and his race, Khomm is located in a star system near the galactic Core. The planet's inhabitants and their
society remained unchanged for thousands of years, since they felt that they had achieved perfection. This led to the cloning of
"perfect" individuals, and the society evolved into a stagnant group of repetitive clones. They lead uneventful lives, which is often fine
with them. Any members of the society who want to do something unusual are shunned, much as Dorsk 81 was. The planet is a
technological world, crisscrossed with grid-like cities laid out according to pattern. Admiral Daala chose Khomm as one of her first
points of attack following her unification of the Imperial warlords' fleets, primarily because her plans for attacking Yavin 4 were
overheard by Kyp Durron on Dorsk 81, who fled to Khomm because it was the only location plotted in their navicomputer. Cronus' fleet
of Victory-class Star Destroyers laid waste to the planet in no time, due to the lack of planetary defense. (DA, DS)
Khoss
this young member of the Knylenn family from the planet Kuat was highly ambitious, and longed to take control of Kuat Drive Yards. He
went so far as to kill his family’s elder and preserve the body in an elaborate life-support system. This allowed Khoss to effectively
control the family’s business without having to prove his abilities. His plans came to a head shortly before the Battle of Endor, after his
network of spies had gathered information on Kuat of Kuat and his dealings. He claimed that Kuat’s behind-the-scenes actions were
treacherous and self-centered, and that the leader of KDY was only working his own best interests. Kodir of Kuhlvult supported Kuat in
the debate, and helped expose Fenald as a traitor as well as Khoss’ deception with his elder’s body. However, this entire episode fell
into Kodir’s plans to wrest control of KDY from Kuat, but her plans were also exposed and defeated. (SLS)
Khotta
an alien race native to the planet Kho Nai. The Khotta were similar to the Donadi in that they could alter their preception of the world

Khoz’zhak
this ancient Gree device was discovered by Corellia Antilles and her survey crew in the jungles of Asation. It was part of a cache
maintained by a tribe of feral Gree. and Antilles managed to take it. She was forced to hide it in some ruins after being pursued by the
Gree, and she then hired a small team to retrieve it. They were intercepted by a delegation of Gree from Te Hasa, who negotiated the
return of the device for a large sum of credits and a lesser Gree device. The exact nature of the Kho’zhak’s abilities was never
discovered. (SWJ8)

Khuiumin Survivors
this pirate group was formed form the remains of the Eyttyrmin Batiiv pirates who survived the attack of the Bombard and the Crusader.
Their de facto leader was Jacob Nive. They eventually left Khuiumin System and took up residence on Nal Hutta, and later joined the
Invid pirate fleet assembled under Leonia Tavira. They then moved back to Khuiumin, establishing a base on Courkrus. They vowed to
get revenge on the two captains of the Imperial Star Destroyers. (IJ)
Khuiumin System
a section of the galaxy which was the base for the Eyttyrmin Batiiv pirates during the early days of the New Order. They were wiped out
by an attack initiated by the Empire. (SWSB)
Khurgee
this Imperial Captain served on the Thunderflare. He was honored for rescuing five fellow officers from the wreckage of a shuttle crash
on the Star Destroyer. He was promoted, and assigned to docking bay security officer duty on the first Death Star. He was on duty

Khzrry
once one of the most respected of Xi'Dec families, the Khzrry family was nearly wiped out while vacationing aboard the Savage
Pleasure. They were killed when Imperial forces assassinated Mael Sidras. The only survivors were Diskio and K'lial Khzrry. (CRO)
Ki-Adi-Mundi
this Jedi Knight was a member of the Cerean race. Trained by Yoda since the age of four when he was discovered by the Dark
Woman, he spent twenty-one years learning the way of the Jedi. After being given the title of Jedi Knight, Ki had considerable power in
manipulating the Force by the time he returned home on his first mission, to free his people from the grip of Bin-Garda-Zon and his
rogues. This task he managed to accomplish without bloodshed as the old and weak Bin-Garda was unable to maintain his control of
the rogues in the face of Ki’s ability to best their leader. Several more years of working as a Jedi Knight brough Ki a good deal of
influence within the ranks of the Jedi. However, he found he had little influence on his homeworld. Like most of the older generation, Ki-
Adi-Mundi wanted to do away with unnecessary technology, while the younger generation wanted speeder bikes and starships. As a
generation war erupted on Cerea, Ki-Adi-Mundi was caught in the middle when his daughter, Sylvn, was found to be a friend of Maj. He
pursued the techrats at the behest of the Cerean council of elders, and eventually traced the imports of technology to Ephant Mon,
Jabba the Hutt, and the Trade Federation. He was forced to abandon his search on Tatooine, after rescuing Sylvn and Twin from an ion
storm which masked the escape of Mon and Jabba. Upon returning to Cerea, he was met with two welcome revelations: first, that his
bond-wife Shea was pregnant; and second, that he had been nominated for a seat on the Jedi Council. His inclusion in the Jedi Council
was unique in that, at the time, he was the only Jedi Knight on the council, while all other members were Jedi Masters. Nevertheless,
his wisdom and calm demeanor were welcomed on the Council. His first mission for the Council was to travel to Tatooine and locate
Sharad Hett. He later was influential in the decisions made regarding the testing and training of Anakin Skywalker. He used a purple-
bladed lightsaber. Ki-Adi-Mundi was portrayed by Silas Carson in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. (PTR, SW1, IG1,

During the Battle of Endor, he served as Colonel Salm's gunner. (CCG11)
Kian'thar
a large, well-muscled humanoid race native to the planet Shaum Hii. The head of a Kian'thar is studded with a pair of large breather
tubes and several small, tentacular appendages above its eyes and below its mouth. They are aquatic reptiles, evolved from land-
based creatures to live in the oceans. Their skin is formed from a number of tough, scale-like plates that protect it like armor. They are a
highly perceptive race, able to detect the emotions of others around them. The Kian'thar travels the oceans of Shaum Hii on bentails,
herding the native derlacs as a source of food. Their technology level is therefore below the galactic norm, but this has not bothered the
Kian'thar. The location of Shaum Hii has kept the Kian'thar separated from much of the galaxy until about 300 years before the Galactic
Civil War, when a Shistavenan exploration group discovered them while charting the sector. The Kian'thar have been divided over how
strongly to embrace galactic culture, but the feud has been minor as the Kian'thar are - as a race - content with their lots in life. The
Kian’thar have a complex series of familial and leige relationships that are nearly impossible for offworlders to decipher. Among the
more unusual aspects is the social requirement which forces fertilized eggs to be passed down through three generations of unrelated,
affiliated clans before birth. (GG12, SLS)
Kibbick
this young Hutt was a member of the Besadii clan, and was the nephew of Zavval and Aruk. When Zavval was killed during Han Solo’s
escape from Ylesia, Aruk installed Kibbick in his place as manager of the spice processing centers on Ylesia. At the time, Kibbick was
still able to move under his own power. For all intents and purposes, Kibbick was a figurehead, barely capable of understanding the
business of spice and slaves. When Aruk was killed by Teroenza and clan Desilijic, Kibbick remained in charge of the Ylesian
enterprise, although he was despised by his cousin, Durga. Teroenza, bolstered by his dealings with clan Desilijic, killed Kibbick himself
by ramming the Hutt with his horn, then shooting Kibbick with a blaster to disguise the wounds. Teroenza then blamed Kibbick’s death
on Red Hand Squadron, even though they were across the galaxy at the time. Durga used this piece of information to begin his plans
for retribution against Desilijic. (THG, RD)

Kichicolia
this species of harmless, herbivorous primates was discovered by the Imperial Zoological Agency during its survey of the planet
Najarka. They have thick, long fur which is primarily white with black markings around the eyes. They have prehensile fingers and toes,
and their long tail is covered with long white fur. They communicate in a series of loud, trilling squawks. Emperor Palpatine had a
number of the kichicolia exported for display in his own gardens on Coruscant and Kailor V. (TA)
Kichiir
this Wookiee was a member of the underground resistance in Rwookrrorro, serving under Katarra. Kichiir later joined the Alliance, and
proved to be a valuable field agent. It was Kichiir’s team which rescued Xenon Nnaksta from the bounty hunter Ssach’thirix on Pii 3,
shortly after the Battle of Yavin. (RD, AIR)
Kicking the Rancor
this was an Imperial phrase used to describe any foolish stunt in which the risks vastly outweighed the gains. (VOF)
Kid Dxo’la
this balding smuggler lived in the Smuggler’s Run, and claimed to be a friend of Han Solo. In fact, it was Kid who first took Han through
the Kessel Run. However, after Solo became a vital part of the Alliance, Kid became invovled with Nandreeson, and eventually went to
work for the Glottalphib crimelord. When Solo suddenly reappeared on the Run, Kid and his companions Zeen Afit, Wynni, and Sinewy
Ana Blue attempted to lure Solo into their confidences. Their machinations were revealed to Solo during a series of encounters. Kid
was killed in the firefight on Skip 6, during which Han Solo attempted to rescue Lando Calrissian. (TNR)
Kidriff 5
this planet, the fifth of twelve worlds in the Kidriff System was occupied by the Empire during the Galactic Civil War. It was strategic for
two reasons: first, it was a wealthy trade depot world along several hyperspace routes; second, its natural resources included several
heavy alloys which were used to improve the strength and durability of TIE Fighter hulls. After the Battle of Endor, the system was
usurped by the Warlord Zsinj, and represented the furthest point Coreward that his influence extended. The governing body of the
planet chose to build it up in the image of Coruscant, so much of the planet is covered by gleaming cityscapes. However, the planet's
cities are relatively new compared to Coruscant's, and so the atmosphere is still clear. The Imperial forces there relaxed much of their
security measures in order to increase the trade flowing through Kidriff 5's ports. (SOC)
Kidron
this is the primary planet in the Kidron System, located in the Elrood Sector. It is the homeworld of the Orfite race, but has become a
sort of haven for criminals and convicts. It is a hot, damp world that is covered with jungles and oceans. Its day lasts 20 standard hours,
and its year lasts 276 local days. (PG3)

Kiirium
a very common metal used in the formation of artificial shielding, kiirium is transported in large ingots for smelting. Xim the Despot,
realizing the need to kiirium to help protect his forces, had planned to stockpile kiirium in his vaults on Dellalt. Thus, the Queen of
Ranroon was loaded with kiirium when it was hidden on Dellalt. When Han Solo discovers the starship, he finds that the rumored
treasure of Xim was really just a vast supply of military supplies. (HSL)
Kiju Mnuue
this Herglic was at one time the leader of the Guild of Non-Human Skilled Laborers, working at the Tallaan Imperial shipyards for many
decades during the New Order. He was a skilled zero-gee welder, cargo inspector, and job foreman, and was instrumental in the
formation of the Guild of Non-Human Skilled Laborers. He was also a member of the local Alliance cell on Tallaan, and was often in
communication with the Mon Calamari and the Corellian Shipbuilders Unions regarding new Imperial designs. Shortly after the Battle of
Yavin, Kijo was in charge of the shipyards' environmental controls, managing the operation of the life support systems throughout the
facilities. (CRO)
Kil, Kenix
this was the alias used by Kir Kanos to infiltrate Grappa the Hutt's organization. Kenix Kil was a bounty hunter, easily distinguished by
his yellow and black armor. Kil's fingerprints had been removed - more to protect Kanos' identity than Kil's - and his helmet contained
special voice filters that inhibited any kind of voice printing or vocal identification. After Zee Ethda failed to recover Tarrant Snil, Grappa
hired Kenix to do the job. Kenix quickly dispatched Snil's bodyguards and easily captured the customs officer. Kil expressed a distrust
of Mirith Sinn, in keeping with his bounty hunter persona. Inside, Kanos was taking every precautioin to avoid her discovering his true
identity. (CE2)
Kile
one of the moons orbiting the planet Zhar, Kile was a world rich in minerals. It was here that Rogue Squadron set up a launchpad for its
attack on the moon Gall. Kile orbits wuite close to Zhar, and as a result, Kile's atmosphere is bombarded with magnetic interference.
This made the planet somewhat inhospitable as a mining outpost, but it helped hide the Alliance's forces during their staging operation.

Kile II
this planet was the site of an Imperial Enclave, which governed the Imperial presence in the sector during the Galactic Civil War. Much
of the planet is dominated by canyons and huge pits, evidence of intense seismic activity. (RSG)
Kiles L'toth
this Dornean was the New Republic's associate director of the Astrogation Survey Institute about twelve years after the Battle of Endor.
Kiles had previously served with Etahn A'baht in the Dornean Navy. Kiles tried to help A'baht by sending the Astrolabe into the Farlax

Kiliad Marble
Jabba the Hutt's throne on Tatooine was carved from this beautiful stone. (MTS)
Kilit
this species of Zelosian raptor can grow to over a meter in length, and have a wingspan of two meters or more. They are covered with
short, oily, black hair. They have beady eyes and razor-sharp beaks. The kilits swoop down on their prey, latching on with their beaks
and holding on with their talons. The kilit them drains its victim's bodily fluids. The species was named when a Zelosian, under attack by
one of the creatures, shouted "kill it!" to his companions. (PG2)
Killaniri
this gas giant is the primary planet in the Killaniri System, and is the source of the prothium gas refined on Mutanda. Killaniri had fifteen
moons, and measured some 154,000 kilometers in diameter. Much of the planet's resources were owned or controlled by BlasTech
Corporation or Czerka Weapons, which maintained floating refineries in the planet's atmosphere. (PG1)
Killball
this was the term used by biologists to describe the roiling mass of slashrats that attack a single target. The slashrats use their long
bodies and surround their prey in a large mass, tearing the prey apart in minutes. (DTO)
Killik
a creature once native to the planet Alderaan, the killiks lived in the in towering cities they built one the plains. The killiks were
human-sized aliens that had a hive mind but no apparent technology. They built their castle-like buildings out of the natural elements
found on Alderaan, and formed them mound upon mound to create a complex series of living, eating, and egg-laying grottoes. They
apparently decorated their rooms with brilliant, complex mosaics of stones and pebbles. However, for some unknown reason, the killiks
died out long before humans ever settled the planet. They left behind their incredibly beautiful cities, which the human inhabitants of
Alderaan left untouched for centuries. Exploration of the killik ruins revealed that the killik were four-armed insectoids with wicked,
three-clawed hands. They also had two powerful legs that indicated the killik could jump long distances. (ISU)
Killscent
this form of pheromone-laden sweat is exuded by slashrats whenever they attack their prey. The scent attracts other slashrats to the
prey, and often generates a feeding frenzy known as a killball. (DTO)
Kiltar
this was one of the traditional Tunroth weapons, and resembled a heavy staff. (SSR)
Kiltik
native to the planet Cathar, this species of insectoid creature was capable of laying waste to entire populations of lesser beasts and
destroying entire ecosystems. For this reason, the Cathar hunted them regularly in an effort to maintain their civilization. They rested
during the heat of the day, and came out a night to feed. The Kiltik had a rudimentary society, with drones doing the majority of the work
to protect a queen. (TOJR)
Kilwallen, Seni
this woman married Trig Kilwallen shortly before the Ssi-ruuk attacked the planet G'rho. Both Seni and Trig were good pilots, and joined
the local militia in support of the G'rho Defene Force. They piloted Conjo starfighters in defense of G’rho, during the Ssi-ruuk
subjugation of the planet. Seni and Trig fought in the defense of G’rho against the Ssi-ruuk, but the battle went poorly for the humans.
Trig agreed to infiltrate the alien’s base and cut an opening in its outer defenses, which would allow Seni to fly her Conjo fighter into the
base and bombard it. Trig was successful, and Seni was able to get inside the base. However, the destruction she rained down on the
base caused it to explode violently, and it was all she could do to fly free of the fireball. Her fighter’s life support system could handle
the high altitude she reached, and it was all she could do to put the fighter on autopilot before she passed out.. (TBSB)
Kilwallen, Trig
this man was the brother of Ydra Kilwallen Sibwarra, and a colonist on the planet G'rho. Like his sister, Trig was sensitive to the Force,
and even trained briefly on Chandrila with her, but lacked her control. When Ydra fled to G'rho with her son, Dev, she hoped Trig would
help them settle in and avoid Imperial notice. He managed to convince his Ilwizzt boss, Brco, to hire Ydra as the colony historian. Trig
and his wife, Seni, were both pilots in the local division of the G'rho Defense Force. When the Ssi-ruuk invaded the planet Trig and Seni
fought bravely with the rest of the Defense Force. After the main fleet left the system, Trig agreed to infiltrate the aliens' entechment
center, a mission which had failed three times before. However, his sensitivity to the Force allowed him a measure of success. He
managed to cut an entrance to the Ssi-ruuvi base, which allowed Seni to fly in and bombard the installation. Trig barely escaped the
destruction of the base, but could not relocate his sister after her desparate flight to escape. (TBSB)

great deal of rebuilding and restoration made the city appear more run-down than it truly was. (SWJ1)
Kinn, Shanna
a native of Dorriella, Shanna was the youngest of three children, and the only girl. She learned starship repair from her older brothers,
but lost her family when the Empire took control of Dorriella. Her family was killed when Imperial forces raided a supposed Alliance cell,
and Shanna was left to steal enough food and credits to survive as an orphan. She left Dorriella by stowing away on a starship, and
made some shady contacts who needed a starship mechanic. She ended up on Trevi IV, and was stealing starship parts when she met
Fiz Cor’gril. Fizzi recognized her potential, and signed her on to work with the Verpine Garginoolaara keeping his starships in good
working order. Her underworld contacts provided her with a ready supply of slightly-used parts, a part of her work she kept secret from
Fizzi. She had very few friends, aside from Fizzi and Gargi. (SWJ9)
Kinn-taas
this was the Jiivahar name for the seasonal gathering which involved great feasts. The Kinn-taas was held to redistribute foodstuffs to
needy talins of Jiivahar. Every Jiivahar was compelled by social obligation to give up as much of their possessions as they could afford,
donating it to the leader of the talin in preparation for the feast. The leaders then distribute the bounty to all Jiivahar based on individual
need. (AE)
Kinnet, Deena
this woman grew up on Coruscant, a stone's throw from the Senate chamber. Her wealthy family sent her to the best schools, where
she earned a degree in medicine and eventually earned a doctorate in cosmetic surgery. She returned to Coruscant and established a
successful office in view of the Imperial Palace, catering to the vain whims of Imperial officers. With the death of Emperor Palpatine at
Endor, her business fell off sharply. She was approached by an Imperial agent who offered a position as an Imperial spy, performing
surgeries throughout the Core while gathering information on the movements of the New Republic. She gladly accepted the offer, which
included a YT-1300 transport modified to serve as her remote office and a Q-3PO droid. (HR)

the Hutts who controlled the Si'Klaata Cluster. (SSR)
Kintan
this planet is located in the heart of the Si'Klaata Cluster. Its turbulent history is evidenced by the existence of five unique races of
Nikto, the primary sentient race on the planet. In an effort to survive on a planet with many vicious predators - incuding the huge strider,
which no longer exists there - the various Nikto races destroyed much of the planet's natural environment. As a result, they rule Kintan.
(CCG, SWAJ, GG12)
Kintaro
this Imperial Grand Moff was in charge of the Bajic Sector and the Vergesso Asteroids. When Xizor provided the location of an Ororo
Transportation shipyards to Darth Vader, telling the Dark Lord the shipyards were run by the Alliance, Emperor Palpatine had Kintaro

via the Kira Run. (TSK)
Kira I
this was the first planet in the Kira System, discovered by an exploratory expedition during the height of the Old Republic. Republic
ships returned to the system years later, only to find that the inner three planets, including Kira I, had been destroyed. No explanation
was ever given, and the system was forgotten until the Haik Expedition used it to anchor the Kira Run. (TSK)
Kira II
this was the only habitable planet in the Kira System, discovered by an exploratory expedition during the height of the Old Republic.
The planet was known as Kira Prime until Republic ships returned to the system years later. They found that the inner three planets,
including Kira II, had been destroyed. The asteroid field which orbited Kira inside Kira IV was later renamed Kira Prime. No explanation
was ever given, and the system was forgotten until the Haik Expedition used it to anchor the Kira Run. (TSK)
Kira III
this was the third planet in the Kira System, discovered by an exploratory expedition during the height of the Old Republic. Republic
ships returned to the system years later, only to find that the inner three planets, including Kira III, had been destroyed. No explanation
was ever given, and the system was forgotten until the Haik Expedition used it to anchor the Kira Run. (TSK)
Kira IV
the fourth planet in the Kira System, this is the only world to survive the unusual destruction which ripped through the system several
millenia before the Galactic Civil War. The inner three planets were destroyed in an event which has never been explained. (TSK)
Kira Prime
this was originally the name of the second planet in the Kira System, until the inner three planets were mysteriously destroyed. Since
then, the asteroid field created from the rubble has been known as Kira Prime. (TSK)
Kira Run
this hyperspace trade route connects the Lazerian and Ropagi Systems via the Kira System. It also links the Enarc Run with the Harrin
Trade Corridor. It was discovered by the Haik expedition. It was a somewhat uncertain route, due to its remoteness, but it has been
maintained by various small shipping companies. (TSK)
Kiran Tatch
this Tunroth Hunter was a member of the Granse Confederacy. As one of the few Tunroth to survive the Reslian Plague, he eventually
achieved the rank of shturlan. Before joining the Granse Confederacy, Kiran Tatch worked as a skip-chaser, and was believed to have
been on Jabba the Hutt’s list of beings who had a chance to track down Han Solo and Chewbacca. However, Tatch preferred to take
larger bounties closer to the Core Worlds, and worked for several prominent Hutt crimelords during the early years of the New Order.
He was often teamed with Arcuse while in the employ of Glorga the Hutt, but Tatch grew tired and disdainful of the Hutts. In a daring
display of bravado, Tatch spit on Glorga and then left the Hutt’s employ, eventually signing on with Callandri just before the Battle of
Hoth. (GG12, AIR)
Kirana Ti
a Singing Mountain clan witch from Dathomir, she eventually joined Luke Skywalker's Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4. She quickly grew into

Kirrek
one of the seven primary planets in the ancient Koros System, which is now known as the Empress Teta system. When Empress Teta
attempted to join the seven worlds of the Koros System into a single alliance united by commerce and aid, Kirrek was the world which
resisted the hardest. Pirates and rebels on the planet ignored or attacked any contingent sent to discuss the alliance, and a civil war
broke out that marked the final battles of the First Unification Wars. Teta petitioned the Old Republic to send help in quelling the battle,
and the Jedi Knight Odan-Urr was dispatched to assist Memit Nadill in mediating the battle. Odan-Urr brought with him the concept of
Jedi battle meditation, and together they were able to convince the rebels on Kirrek to surrender their arms long enough to negotiate a
peace treaty. A thousand years later, Kirrek's three main cities were destroyed just before the Great Sith War, when they refused to
submit to Satal Keto and Aleema. (DLS)
Kirtania
this fourth planet in the Yyrtan System was a green-blue world of jungles and deserts broken by mountains. It was the homeworld of the
Araquia race of arachnids. Originally colonized by humans, the planet was been severely depleted of its natural resources by the
mining and deforestation performed by various groups. The average day on Kirtania lasted 23 standard hours, while its year
encompassed 369 local days. (SWJ1, AE)

Kurtzen. (TBSB)
Kissh'tih Airspeeder
produced by Bakur RepulsorCorp, this six-meter-long speeder was designed to be cheap and reliable, and was marketed as a civilian
transport. It was a basic transport, lacking sophisticated safety and personal comfort systems. The Kissh’tih could carry a pilot and up to

meters. (TBSB)
Kiskin
a planet or city known for its small, crowded tenements. (COJ)
Kisquar
this Mrissi worked for the Nalroni crimelord Sprax as a an overseer to Sprax's various smuggling and salvage operations. A red-and-
black plumed male, Kisquar was once a hijacker and smuggler himself, and his reputation eventually led to his employment with Sprax.
Kisquar's reputation among smugglers allowed Sprax to hire some of the best pirates and spacers in the galaxy, since they all knew
that Kisquar was not a flunky but "one of them." (SSR)
Kist
this man, a Captain in the Imperial Army, developed the original designs for the Class 1 Defense Unit. The Empire's own manufacturers
rejected the idea, and Kist eventually sold it to Ulban Arms. (SWJ14)
Kite Creature
a large, graceful beast native to Alderaan. They could fly, and were used to ferry Alderaanians from one of their cities to another. (JS)
Kite Plant
native to Yavin 4, these unusual plants are often seen floating airborne above the treetop canopy. They are brightly colored, which
makes them an easy target for avain herbivores. When kite plants are attacked, or when they bump into the tall Massassi trees, they
release a storm of jewel-like spores which land in the canopy and eventually grow into new plants. (CCR)
Kitehawk
a purple-winged bird of prey native to Yavin 4. (BTS)
Kitel Phard
this world was the primary planet in the Atrisi System, and the seat of the famed Kitel Phard Dynasty. (ISB)
Kith Kark
this ancient Gotal spent much of his young life tending the family farm, but never really found his calling. On a vacation trip to Truuine,
Kith encountered a Jedi Knight for the first time. Kith realized that he was without a vocation, and decided to become a Jedi. Both he
and the Jedi realized that Kith could touch the Force, and the Jedi allowed him to travel to the training compound of Master Mroon
Jassa. The Master ignored Kith Kark's presence, sensing correctly that the Force had not called to the Gotal. Kith didn't understand the
rejection, and returned to Antar 4 to learn all he could about the Jedi. He traveled back to Truuine several months later, and was again
rejected. After more study, Kith finally understood that the Force wasn't something you just obtained, but rather an innate energy that
calls you to it. After meditating on this, he traveled back to Truuine. There, Master Jassa realized that Kith finally had been called by the
Force, and accepted Kith as a student. After Kith attained the rank of Jedi Knight, he went on to be trained by Master Vodo Siosk-Baas
just prior to the Great Sith War. He was killed on Onderon, as part of the joint Jedi Knight-Old Republic force trying to eliminate the
Naddists, when the Dark Side energies of their opponents drain the Light Side energy from their attack. (FNU, TOJC)

Kitonak
a race of pudgy, white humanoids from the planet Kirdo III, these creatures have tough, leathery skin and can draw into their folds of
skin and seal vulnerable body openings. This trait allows them to protect themselves from Kirdo's harsh desert environment. Their
normal body temperature is 106 degrees. Their heads are msuhroom-shaped, and their eyes, nose, and ears, and mouth are hidden
from view by folds of skin. The four stout fingers on each hand are extremely dexterous. Kitoanks are easy-going, patient creatures who
rarley rush anything. This is a trait developed from hunting choobas on their homeworld. A Kitonak will stand motionless in the desert,
pretending to be a sulfaro plant, until the chooba's congregate near them. When a chooba crawls onto the Kitonak and into their mouth,
which resembles the cavities of the sulfaro, the Kitonak simply consumes the chooba. A single chooba can sustain a Kitonak for a
standard month. Kitonaks do not walk in the normal sense of the word, because their feet are actually muscled pads which are studded
with olfactory organs. To move, a Kitonak alternately expands and contracts the muscles in their feet, much like a snake. The feet also
provide the Kitonak's sense of smell. (ROTJ, GG4, COJ)
Kitster
this nine-year-old boy was one of Anakin Skywalker’s best childhood friends. A resident of Mos Espa and a slave owned by Gardulla
the Hutt, Kitster and Anakin had many adventures, when they weren’t working for their masters. Kitster was good at keeping secrets,

Kiva
this planet was home to a race of beings known only as the Kivans. Borborygmus Gog and Mammon Hoole set up the first laboratory
dedicated to Project Starscream on the planet, after receiving funding from Emperor Palpatine and the Imperial Science Division, where
they experimented with the power of life and death. Although Hoole advised the Emperor that the project would utterly destroy all life on
Kiva, it made little difference. The Kivans were wiped out when Borborygmus Gog ordered the continuation of Project Starscream, and
the experiment itself was horribly wrong, killed everything on Kiva, including the Kivans. The planet itself was left a barren, rocky
wasteland, and was haunted by the wraiths of the Kivans until Gog was killed by them shortly after the Battle of Yavin. (GOF6)
Kivan
this was the race of beings native to the planet Kiva. They were a peaceful people, known in the surrounding systems as artists and
architects. When Project Starscream was allowed to continue its experiments with the power of life, the project nearly destroyed the
planet. It killed off all the Kivans, but they survived as disembodied wraiths. They believed that Mammon Hoole had been responsible
for their deaths, but were later informed that it was Borborygmus Gog who ordered the project's continuation, in spite of the
consequences for the Kivans. The wraiths killed Gog, and were able to finally die in peace. (GOF6)
Kiviett
this Imperial surveyor was second in command of Survey Team IX 3244-B, which scouted the Forest Moon of Endor as a possible

Kl'aal
this Defel served aboard the FarStar as one of the ship's primary technicians. Kl'aal was also valuable for his scouting and
reconnaissance skills, and got anxious when he didn't get a chance to roam in the wilds. During the FarStar's stop on Binaros during its
search for Moff Sarne, Kl'aal picked up the spores of a feeder plant and brought them aboard the FarStar inadvertently. When Gorak
Khzam defected from the crew, Kl'aal was promoted to the secruity team to backfill the Rodian's position. Despite the new role, Kl'aal

Klatooinan
an alien race native to Klatooine, the Klatooinans have been indentured to the Hutts seince before the rise of the Old Republic. Along
with the Vodran and Nikto races, the Klatooinans have served the Hutts since the battles against Xim the Despot. They are a tall,
humanoid race with flat, canine faces and coarse skin. The Klatooinan culture is strongly tied to traditional values, and has been as
patient and tenacious as the Fountain of Ancients. They also, like the Fountain, strove to grow stronger with age. The Klatooinans have
often referred to themselves as the Children of the Fountain, since they have developed many of the Fountain's characteristics. At the
age of ten, every Klatooinan is sold into servitude, usually to local governments. Especially troublesome youths are sold into slavery.
This helps the young Klatooinans learn to respect and admire their elders and the traditions of their people. However, they have forever
been under the oppression of the Hutts. Like the Fountain of the Ancients, the Klatooinans hope that they can endure long enough to
grow strong with age and shed the Hutt yolk. (MTS, TJP, GG12)

a native of the planet Alsakan, Klev's father was a highly-placed officer in the Clone Wars. His mother was the heiress to a wealthy
merchant company. He wanted for nothing, and eagerly joined his local SAGroup when his time came. He excelled in Wegsphere, and
was trained on Ibanjji. His outstanding record made him the 37th Klev to be accepted into the Academy, but the Alliance's victory at
Endor nearly ended his career. He stuck with the Empire, though, and seemed ready to be promoted to Moff when he was named an
Imperial Navy Captain, commander of the Silencer-7 World Devastator. He died when his World Devastator crashed on the planet

Vengeance, Klif was a genius at demagoguery. He could whip a crowd into a frenzy with ease. He worked with Drend Navett on many
such operations. Klif and Drend found steady employment under Moff Disra, who used their services to destabilize the New Republic
shortly after it was revealed that the Bothans were involved in the destruction of Caamas. Later, Navett and Klif were placed in charge
of taking out the shield generator in Drev'starn, posing as exotic animal dealers. They used their small animals as saboteurs, first
getting metalmites into the generator facility, then using baby mawkrens to transport small bombs into the building. Once Navett was in
place and ready to take out the shield generator, Kliff accompanied Horvic anfd Pensin on a sabotage mission. Disguised as New
Republic technicians, they managed to get aboard the Predominance and make their way to a turbolaser battery. They killed their

a native of the planet Ralltiir, this Alliance pilot was known to hi scomrades as Hobbie. He served as Biggs Darklighter's executive
officer aboard the Rand Ecliptic. Hobbie was known as a skeptic in his early years of service to the Alliance, but that seemed to change
when he met Biggs. He was always eager to get into a starfighter and shoot down the enemy, much like a rookie on every flight. Hobbie
served under Captain Heliesk on the Rand Ecliptic, and when Heliesk staged a mock mutiny and stole the Ecliptic from the shipyards of
Bestine, Hobbie defected with Biggs and several others. Later in his career, Hobbie assisted in the defense of Echo Base on Hoth, and
was later assigned to Wedge's Rogue Squadron as Rogue Six. Many of his comrades often said that Hobbie enjoyed bacta baths too
much, and that he could crash any starship he touched. He was given the nickname Bugbite by Iella Wessiri, a reminder of their first
meeting on Corellia, after Hobbie had been stung by a local insect. Shortly after the Imperial Remnant agreed to a peace treaty with the
New Republic, Hobbie and most of the other veteran Rogues retired from active duty. Hobbie was portrayed by Richard Oldfield in Star

Republic computers on this planet. It was known for its unspoiled wildernesses, and the government regulated the size and locations of
its cities in order to minimize the intrusion into the natural beauty of the planet. Despite this regulation, the government eventually
allowed the construction of The Ace of Sabres, in order to bring in more revenue to the planet. (WBC, WSV)
Kluuzot
this sentient species of arboreal mammals is native to the planet Krann. They evolved from a lemur-like race of creatures, and live
within the Black Jungle. They have soft, glowing, amber-colored eyes which are suited for seeing in the deep red light of Krann’s four
stars. These eyes appear alsmot fluorescent under normal lighting. The Empire, which harvested innumerable amounts of nova crystals
to fund the first Death Star project, attempted to enslave the Kluuzot. The intelligent mammals simply fled deep into the jungle, where

Knight Hammer
the new name given by Admiral Daala to the Super-class Star Destroyer Night Hammer, built by Delvardus. She decided to rename the
ship for her attack on the Jedi academy on Yavin 4. The ship arrived shortly after the Jedi Knights had flung Pellaeon's fleet out of the
system, but the Knight Hammer was more than a match for the few Jedi on the ground. After the arrival of the Republic fleet, Callista
managed to steal a downed TIE Bomber on the surface of Yavin 4. She landed the ship in the fighter bays of the Knight Hammer and
set off the bombs stored there. The resulting explosions ripped through the Star Destroyer's engine compartments, leaving the ship
dead in space. The gravity of Yavin then grabbed the ship and sucked it into its core. Daala evacuated the crew, and immobilized
Callista before escaping in a command-level escape pod. (DS)

to overturn the Inheritance Exemption. There efforts came to a head when Khoss of Knylenn secretly killed his family’s elder and placed
him in an elaborate life-support system. This allowed Khoss to effectively rule the family without having to prove his abilities. However,
his plans were exposed by Kodir of Kuhlvult and Kuat of Kuat. (SLS)
Knytix
this species of arachnid is similar in appearance to the Vratix, and is also native to Thyferra. They are smaller and blockier that the
Vratix, and were kept as pets and workers by the larger Vratix. Sometimes, they also served as a food source. The Vratix mainly used
the knytix for creating the mud which was used to build their villages in the gloan trees. The mud was mixed from the dense soil and the
saliva of the knytix. (BW)

this legendary scout was the first being to discover what became known as the Eye of Koda, during the early days of the Empire. When
he landed on the planet which became known as Koda's World, he found the native Tempestro struggling against a deadly disease.
Krin's meager stores included several medpacks, and he was able to administer an antidote and save the Tempestro. They presented
him with the Eye of Koda as a reward, as they were unaware of its true power. He disappeared before he could prove the legends
behind the Eye, and misfortune seemed to follow those who located the amulet after him. (GG8)
Koda Space Station
this run-down spaceport was located in a backwater section of the galaxy. The most common visitors to Koda were farmers looking for
excitement and bored smugglers. A moderately busy port, visitors were greeted by a protocol droid stationed at the main entrance from
the docking ports. (GOF7)
Koda's World
this planet was supposedly discovered by Krin Koda, during his search for the source of the power of the amulet that became known as
the Eye of Koda. A heavily forested world, broken here and there with mountains and oceans, Koda's world is the home planet of the
Tempestro race. The trees of the planet are covered with a shaggy, red bark, and the leaves resemble large, five-fingered hands. It is
the fourth planet which orbits the star Tarin. The average day on Koda's World lasts fourteen standard hours, and its year lasts 502
local days. Several thousand years before the Galactic Civil War, an asteroid struck the planet, wiping out most of the Tempestro and
forcing the survivors to exist by living in the trees. (GG8)
Kodir
this ambitious young woman was a member of the Kuhlvult family, of the planet Kuat. Like other members of the Kuhlvult family, Kodir
was athletic, but not necessarily beautiful. However, she was also quite devious, and developed a plan to oust Kuat of Kuat from the
leadership of Kuat Drive Yards and take it for herself. She gathered a small band of young royals and laid out her plans, but was initially
rejected by her sister, Kateel. Kateel threatened to expose the group, so Kodir had her kidnapped and then had her memory wiped out.
However, she left this job to a third party, which failed to do the job completely. Kodir, however, was unaware of the situation, and
continued with her schemes. She drew in Kuat’s security chief, Fenald, paying him to betray Kuat so that she could take his place as
security chief. After orchestrating an uprising by Khoss of Knylenn from behind the scenes, Kodir achieved the position of security chief
and began forcing Kuat into a corner from which he could not escape. She also executed Fenald, when the man tried to blackmail her.
She secretly worked a deal with the Alliance to deliver a group of warships, shortly before the Battle of Endor. She insinuated that Kuat
of Kuat was loyal only to the Empire, and the Alliance representatives – Commander Rozhdenst and Wonn Uzalg - would need to
replace him in order to get the ships. The Alliance agreed, having already discussed the situation with the other Kuati royal families, and
ostensibly recognized Kodir as Kuat’s successor. However, Kateel – having known herself only as Neelah – recovered her memory and
returned to Kuat to face her sister at about the same time Kuat himself began destroying the KDY facilities. It was also at this point in
time that the Battle of Endor began. The plots and plans Kodir had worked so hard on were suddenly exposed and smashed to bits.
After Kust nearly destroyed the Kdy facilities, Kodir was captured and charged with a host of offenses, including murder, kidnapping,
and conspiracy. (SLS, HM)

Beauty of Yevetha was destroyed in the second wave of Republic blockades, but Attan survived and was brought before Spaar. Rather
than killing Attan and giving him an easy way out, Spaar banished Attan from service and reduced him to the rank of to-mara, or
shamed one. (SOL)
Kolader
this city is located in the center of the continent of Afterthought, on the planet Ropagi II. (TSK)
Kolaff
this Imperial Navy Captain was in command of the Subjugator, which was sent to Kwenn Space Station to pick up Walex Blissex. He
felt that mission, devised by Lira and Denn Wessex, was sneaky and beneath him, but he served his duty to the Empire by going along
to capture the "Rebel scum." An extremely intelligent man, Kolaff had an obsession with doing battle. He didn't exactly hate the
Alliance; in an off-hand sort of way, he admired their courage in the face of great obstacles. Kolaff was defeated on the Subjugator by
the team of Alliance agents that accompanied Blissex. They engaged in a battle using AT-STs in a docking bay, which allowed the
agents to rescue Blissex and escape. Kolaff later died when the Subjugator self-destructed. (SF)

in Rayter Sector, and it is believed that he worked with Yearo Seville before becoming involved with the Alliance. He modified the
cockpit extensively, since he loss his left leg years before. It is unknown how he lost the leg, although rumors have it that the Imperial
forces occupying Rayter Sector were the cause of it. The rumors say this explains why Kollene joined the Alliance, in order to exact
some form of revenge on the Empire. He was very withdrawn and tacit, only speaking when absolutely necessary. It was Kollene who
piloted the Worthless Fool during the Alliance’s rescue of the Shashay Crying Dawn Singer from the clutches of Braig and Nak Farool.
(TA)

this Imperial Governor was placed in charge of the planet Nishr during the height of the Galactic Civil War. He was originally a Major
General in the Imperial Army, and retained this rank as well as his governorship. His forces were constantly harassed by the Alliance's
Nishr Taskforce, and Kollis was forced to request additional support from the Empire. He rarely received adequate support, as Nishr
was too far from the Core to warrant additional troops. However, when the local Nish began rising against his forces, he used military
firepower to decimate the Nish population in what became known as the Nishr Suppression. (ROE)

Multitude" by the Fia, "God's Temple" by the Wehttem, and no'aat padu'll - The Little Nursery - by the Ka'aa. The Cluster is located at
the outer edges of the Deep Core, bordering on the Core Worlds themselves. It was controlled by the Yevetha from N'zoth, until the
Empire invaded the Cluster and established a number of shipyards there. The Black Sword Command was stationed there, out of the
way of prying eyes. The Yevethan government - the Duskhan League - later assumed control of the Cluster. It is located in the Farlax
Sector of the Rim, between Coruscant and the Core. Despite the number of systems the Cluster contains, only about 100 planets have
been found with native forms of life, and just six developed sentient lifeforms. (BTS, EGP, CTD)
Kooroo
1) this spiritual leader commanded the legions known as the Fellowship of Kooroo, a semi-religious sect which strove to reach true
enlightenment through the attainment of telepathic powers. Shrines of Kooroo were found on many Outer Rim worlds, including
Boztrok, Sufezz, and Brantees. In the modern age of the galaxy, Kooroo was a figurehead around which the Fellowship rallied, despite
the reporting of Andor Javin. Javin claimed the Kooroo's shrines were nothing more than ancient communication devices. (SWJ13)

sublight propulsion, but the ship's hyperdrive systems were limited in jump calculation and speed. The ship had two main decks, one
used for passengers and one for cargo. (SOL)
Kor
this is the rarest, and purest, form of ryll spice produced on Ryloth. It makes up only three percent of the total ryll production, and
virtually none of it leaves the planet. It was discovered that kor ryll had certain medicinal properties. This was found by Qlaern Hirf and
his Vratix verachan, who were working to counteract the effects of the Krytos virus. The New Republic sent Rogue Squadron, with
Nawara Ven, to Ryloth, in hopes that they could negotiate a supply of kor for use in augmenting bacta. Kor ryll absorbs light in the
ultraviolet range, and appears black under normal lighting. It can be distinguished from colored, less pure ryll under ultraviolet lighting.

youths, Kordren loved the thrill of swoops and the prestige of having high-technology equipment, but was unskilled in their use. When
he and Skeel tried to race their swoops through the Outsider Citadels, they took a wrong turn and ended up running into a dead-end
passage. Skeel was unable to stop his swoop and was killed when it struck the wall and exploded. Kordren managed to leap from his

this remote planet was the seat of the ancient Sith race. Located across the galaxy from Cinnagar and Koros Minor, it was unknown to
the Old Republic before the rise of Naga Sadow. It was to Korriban that the ancient Dark Jedi fled, after they were exiled by the Jedi
Knights. Korriban was a desolate world which, under the pall of Sith magic, became more hellish and dangerous. The native life there
was twisted by the Dark Side, and the ghosts of Sith Dark Lords roamed everywhere. The Sith Lords erected huge palaces and burial
complexes, which honored not only the dead Lords but the current magicians as well. Exar Kun was led here by Freedon Nadd's spirit,
in an effort to recover certain Sith manuscripts. The Emperor Palpatine often visited Korriban, to help him center himself in the Dark
Side of the Force. (DLS, EE)

murdered at the Jenet embassy on Uvena III. (AIR)
Korus
this Tetan was the tutor of Aleema, Satal Keto, and other royal youths about 4,000 years before the Galactic Civil War. When the
youths formed the Krath, they rebelled against their parents and their teachers. Aleema's magic was used to twist Korus to their
bidding. In a display of her power for the Lord Keto, Aleema changed Korus' tongue into an Adegan Eel. Satal and Aleema kept the old
man as a servant, until he accidentally spilled wine on Aleema. She killed him with Sith magic in her anger. (DLS)
Koryunt, Adair
this rough-looking man once planted a bomb in the Elrooden headquarters of Radell Mining Corporation, and left the employees and
the police a message claiming his part in the planting of the bomb. He also placed emphasis on certain words in the message, words
which pointed a group of Alliance agents to the bomb's location. Koryunt was mentally unstable, a fact which was overlooked when he
was hired by Imperial Mining, Limited, to plant the bomb in Radell's headquarters. (OE)
Kosh Kurp
this tall, muscular, blue-skinned alien was employed by the Empire as a detonations expert. He was red body armor and a red helmet
set with two blunt horns. He was sent to Gaar Suppoon's hideout on a warning that Jabba the Hutt had planted a bomb there. In reality,
Jabba had played Kosh Kurp for the bomb. Jabba knew that Gaar Suppoon had gone by the name of Sonopo Bomoor, a crazed villian
who had invaded Kurp's homeworld and killed his family in front of his eyes. Suppoon left Kurp alive, as a living testimony of Bomoor's
deeds. He spent the rest of his life searching for Bomoor, whom Jabba knew was really Suppoon. When Suppoon tried to kill Kurp, the
laser bolt ricocheted off his red armor and blasted Suppoon's head off. Kosh Kurp became the de facto leader of Suppoon's criminal
empire. (JTH)

Koth Melan
this Bothan was a native of Bothawui. His father was a teacher on the planet during the Galactic Civil War, but was killed by Imperial
forces on false charges of espionage. A member of the Alya clan, Koth Melan removed the Bothan honorific 'lya' in memory of his
father, and chose not to replace it after the War was over. Melan rose to power in the Bothan resistance, and was placed in charge of
the Bothan Spynet. He was among the first to realize that the Bothans had access to the secret plans to the second Death Star,
although he did not know the exact details. He sent word to Leia Organa to come to Bothawui and receive the information, but Leia was
on Rodia and the message was delivered to Luke Skywalker and Lando Calrissian instead. They arrived, and after stealing the
information from the Tuk Previz, took it to Kothlis. There, Koth Melan was killed in the firefight during an Imperial raid on the planet. (SE,
SSE, SESB)
Kothlis
this Bothan colony world was the birthplace of Borsk Fey'lya. It has three small moons, and is the fourth planet in its system. The
Bothan spy network maintained an impressive information slicing operation on the planet. The plans for the second Imperial Death Star
were taken to the planet after being recovered from the Suprosa, and were almost lost during an Imperial raid. Kothlis was a semi-
tropical world, with an average day of 22 standard hours and a year which lasts 408 local days. (HTTE, SE, SESB)
Kothlis II
a space station located near the planet Kothlis. It was here that the Bothan spies who obtained the plans to the second Death Star took

that Talon Karrde provided information on the whereabouts of Wurth Skidder to Kyp Durron. (TIE, JE)
Kothlis Shadowport
this was the name given to the spaceport located on the second moon of the planet Kothlis. The planet was originally used as a training
ground and ordnance test site by the Bothan military, until the New Order made such practices illegal. The moon was abandoned, but
found new use to smugglers and pirates who worked in the nearby space. The spaceport was maintained by the former pirate Rithgar,
who charged no credits for use of the spaceport but expected his customers to leave behind a portion of their supplies and spare parts
for other users. (SESB)
Koti
this was a term used by the Krieks to describe immature members of their species. (AE)
Kotiate
an Imperial-I class Star Destroyer, the Kotiate was the last of the Imperial-I class ships built with moderate shielding. It was destroyed
by a group of Alliance starfighters at a supply stop. The ease with which the Kotiate was destroyed prompted the Empire to upgrade the
Imperial-I class's shielding. (XW)
Kououra

Koyi Komad
this Twi'leki waitress worked at the Soundmound, on Mrlsst, during the early years of the New Republic. She was serving drinks to
Rogue Squadron when they began to ask about the band Ghost Jedi. She agreed to take them on a tour of the Mrlsst Academy and
show them the spot where Taj Junak was murdered, resulting in the birth of the legend of the Ghost Jedi. She later put the Rogues in
contact with Nasta, and eventually left Mrlsst to join the Republic. She then served Rogue Squadron as a friend, confidante, and chief
mechanic. Like the other Twi'leks of the New Republic, she was very upset when the Republic's High Council ordered all Twi'leks off-
duty until further notice, in the wake of the treacherous actions of Jart Eyan. However, she came to understand the reasons behind the
order, and dealt with them in her own way. After retiring from active duty, Koyi married Nrin Vakil. (XWPA, HXW, SOC, DTO)

brought to trial before the Aquaris Freeholders. The Freeholders disowned him, and his pleas to Silver Fyre fell on deaf ears. He was
exiled from the planet. (CSW)
Kraay, Langstyn
this Doctor of Planetology was in charge of the Q'Maere Research Facility, some four years after the Battle of Endor. Because of the
isolation of the outpost, Kraay was unaware of the state of the galaxy when the FarStar put into Q'Maere to restock its supplies. Kraay
had interned with COMPNOR at a psychiatric ward during his early career, and discovered that he had a knack for dealing with the
"personality reconstruction" of mentally unstable patients. He was handpicked by Sarne to lead the Q'Maere Research Facility, which
had recently been converted to a penal colony. When Sarne was ousted from Kal'Shebbol, he stranded Kraay and the doctors on
Q'Maere. This angered Kraay and his fellow doctors, who were more than happy to help the FarStar as long as it helped get them off
the planet. However, when he learned that the FarStar was a New Republic ship, he ordered the crew taken prisoner. However, an
uprising by the prisoners of the facility forced Kraay into submission. (KR)

this Yuuzhan Vong warrior was one of Shedao Shai's chief lieutenants. He was in charge of the recovery mission sent to Bimmiel to
recover the remains of a Yuuzhan Vong warrior killed by slashrats decades prior to the invasion along Vector Prime. He was later in
charge of repairing the damaged done by Corran Horn and Ganner Rhysode when they freed the slaves being held by the Vong on
Bimmiel. Following the rebuilding of the base on Bimmiel, Krag Val was sent to Garqi by Shedao Shai to oversee the transformation of
that world into a food-producing world for the Vong. It was on Garqi that he encountered Corran Horn, Jacen Solo, Ganner Rhysode,
and their Noghri escort, in the Pesktda Xenobiological Gardens. There, the Jedi discovered that vonduun crab armor was allergic to the
pollen of the bafforr tree. They burned down the bafforr groves in order to retain the secret, but drew Krag Val's attention. He managed
to badly injure Rhysode and kill one of the Noghri before engaging Jacen Solo in battle. Krag Val's footing slipped when his leg fell into
a drain hole, rendering him helpless against Jacen's attack. Krag Val ordered Runck Das to return to Shedao Shai just before he was
slain in battle by Jacen Solo. (DTO, DTR)

Rogue Two while Nevil seems to be Rogue Three. (DTO, DTR)
Krall Praget
this native of the planet Edatha was a New Republic Senator, and chaired the Council on Security and Intelligence. He regarded the
loss of the Teljkon vagabond at Gmir Askilon to be a failure, and demanded that the mission return home. Praget did not support Leia
Organa-Solo's selection as Chief of State, but he did not openly oppose it. After Leia began granting membership in the Republic to
Koornacht Cluster worlds, he convened the Ruling Council and ordered a recall on her right to rule. Although the vote was 5-2 in
support of Leia, it laid the groundwork for another vote of no-confidence after the blockade of the Koornacht Cluster met with limited
success and the capture of Han Solo. (SOL)
Krane
this tough Alliance Commander was known for his ability to think like an Imperial pilot. He demanded only the best from his pilots, and
gave them little leeway in their performance reviews. Krane believed that the only way the Alliance would prevail was if it acted as a
precision fighting force. He specialized in training Alliance pilots to fly captured TIE Fighters, for special missions as well as to give
Alliance pilots a sense of the Imperial pilot's perspective. His team worked hard to capture intact TIE Fighters for their own use. (RA2)
Krann
this planet is located in the four-star Opiteihr System, and is a humid, densely-jungled world. Because the four stars that dominate the
system are all red giants, Krann is continually bathed in an eerie, blood-red light. This has led to the evolution of plants which have
deep black leaves which soak up all available light, an ebon carpet known as the Black Jungle. The planet is ost famous for its nova
crystals, which were harvested for the Empire by the native Kluuzot in order to fund the first Death Star project. The average day on
Krann lasts 31 standard hours, though its year lasts only 162 local days. (TSK)

Kratas
born on Derilyn, Kratas was accepted into the SAGEducation group at the Calamar University on a full scholarship. He excelled in
history and politics, and was chosen for further training on Carida. He eventually was promoted to Navy Commander under Daala's
command, captain of the Gorgon. He was in charge of the ground forces which Daala sends to route the Eol Sha colonists relocated to
Dantooine. Kratas was one of the few members of Daala's team to survive the series of defeats that the Imperial fleet suffered under
Daala, and he accompanied her into the Core to search for the feuding warlords. They tried to get the warlords to unify and creata a
huge force against the New Republic, but each of them was too wrapped up in his own power to agree. Kratas was killed while
inspecting Harrsk's flagship Star Destroyer, the Shockwave, when the warship was destroyed in an attack from another Imperial
warlord, Teradoc. (JS, DA, COTF, DS, JASB)

Krax
this elder Troob was the leader of his people, and represented them at the peace and trade negotiations held by the Tion Hegemony.
When his son Ket was murdered, apparently by Larka Nimondro, General Krax broke off the negotiations and declared war on the
Hobors. Just as he was planning to launch his attack, C-3PO and R2-D2 managed to use Mount Yeroc to communicate to all parties.
They exposed Jake Harthan as the killer, and managed to avert a full-scale war. Krax deferred to reason, and agreed to meet with
Nimondro on their own terms, to discuss a true peace for Tahlboor before further negotiations with the Tion Hegemony began. (DRPC)

Krayt Dragon
a large, fearsome beast native to Tatooine, the krayt dragon is a beast which continues to grow larger throughout its lifespan. The krayt
dragon is yellowish-brown in color, a camouflage used to blend in with the desert's rocky caves and fissures. The head of the dragon is
heavily armored, and five large horns grow from its crown. The dragon walks low to the ground on four heavy legs, and its tail is
studded with long spikes. The Tusken Raiders on Tatooine have a maturity ritual in which young males are left in the desert to confront
and kill a krayt dragon in order to prove their adulthood. The only sure way to kill the krayt is to penetrate their central sinus cavity and
puncture the brain which lies behind it. The krayt, like many reptiles, has fearsome teeth which are used to capture its prey, but are
ineffective for grinding and chewing. So, like many reptiles, the kray dragon ingests stones and boulders and holds them in a series of
gizzards. The muscles of the gizzard chambers roll food around among the stones, crushing it into digestible pulp. The last gizzard
chamber contains the smoothest stones, which are expelled in favor ot newer, rougher stones. These smooth stones are known
throughout the galaxy as dragon pearls, and are extremely valuable. It has been reported that the krayt dragon has recently been
domesticated. They are often raised for their milk and eggs. The Sandpeople and Jawas have said that the bones of the krayt dragon
hold mystical powers. There are some scholars who believe that the krayt dragon is really the descendant of the wild offspring of a
Duinuogwuin, although this has never been proven. (SW, DE2, TJP, ISU, GG7, CCG, GG4)
Krayt Pearl
these are simply the gizzard stones used by the Krayt Dragon to help it digest its food. The stones, when taken from the dragon's gut,
are a lustrous, milky color. Obtaining the stones is a ritual of manhood for the Tusken Raiders. (DS)

although she never figured out why. (WSV)
Kreesis
this is the largest continent on Algara II, and the location of the cities of Algarine, Benis, and Tivin. (PG2)
Kreet'ah
this Kian'thar was one of Prince Xizor's vigo's, or one of his closest lieutenants. He had learned the criminal trade from his biological
mother, who was herself one of Xizor's vigos during her own lifetime. Kreet'ah's professional assets impressed the Falleen prince, who
rewarded Kreet'ah by allowing him to inherit his mother's position. Among his assets, Kreet’ah had developed a wide-ranging
information network, and developed a wealth on corporate contacts and spies. Given Xizor’s desire to control information, this made
Kreet’ah quite valuable to the Falleen prince. (SE, SLS)
Kreetle
this large insect is found on the planet Naboo, where it eats many varieties of plants and small animals. They have large, mandibular
jaws which can be used to capture and crush its prey. Trained kreetles are used by the Gungans to open containers and clams, and
farm-raised kreetles are considered a crunchy snack. (GF)

call came to investigate the planet Brath Qella, during the New Republic's chase of the Teljkon vagabond. Both she and Stopa were
killed in an avalanche while searching for information on the planet Brath Qella. (SOL)
Krennel, Delak
this man, a native of the planet Corulag, graduated from the Imperial Academy on Prefsbelt IV, where he was the intramural unarmed-
combat champion. Upon graduation, Krennel served the Empire until the Battle of Endor. He was dispatched to the Unknown Regions
to serve under Admiral Thrawn, though he detested the fact that he was serving an alien. After Krennel bombarded a world instead of
following Thrawn's more "passifistic" orders, Krennel was sent back to Imperial Center for punishment from the Emperor himself.
Luckily for Krennel, Emperor Palpatine was killed at Endor before he could pass judgement on Krennel. Krennel then fled Imperial
service, striking out on his own and establishing himself at the same time as other renegade Imperial warlords like Zsinj and Teradoc. In
a battle, he lost the use of his right forearm from the elbow down, and the limb had to be replaced with a cybernetic implant. The
mechanical device glowed red whenever he exerted force with it, evoking fear in his subordinates and enemies. During the initial
struggle for control of the Empire, Krennel aligned himself with General Paltr Carvin and, on orders from Ysanne Isard, set out to
capture Leia Organa at Axxila. He was thrown off his plan by an AT3 directive from Soontir Fel, a directive reinforced by Sate Pestage.
Krennel backed off, but later learned of Pestage's deception in moving him away from Axxila. When Isard approached him about
working directly for her instead of Carvin, he was initially suspicious. However, she helped augment his forces in an attempt to retrieve
Pestage from Ciutric, and his allegiance changed. After the New Republic thought they had recovered Pestage, Pestage slipped away
and presented himself to Krennel for asylum. Krennel, however, cared nothing for Pestage but desired the control of Pestage's holding.
Krennel personally executed Sate Pestage by strangling him with his cybernetic hand, then usurped control of the Ciutric Hegemony for
himself and paid lip-service to Thrawn's call for support during his rise to power. After Thrawn's death at Bilbringi, the Republic targeted
Krennel and the Ciutric Hegemony for removal. They began raiding Ciutric space, unaware that Krennel had allied himself with the
activated clone of Ysanne Isard. Together, they began a disinformation campaign aimed at opening a rift between the human and non-
human races of the New Republic. Krennel claimed the Hegemony to be a haven for Alderaanian refugees who were tired of the
Republic's pro-alien politics. However, they efforts were undermined by the real Ysanne Isard, who managed to capture Rogue
Squadron and convince them to help her defeat Krennel. As soon as Krennel learned that the Rogues were destroyed at Corvis Minor,
he and the clone began plotting their conquest of Coruscant. They waylayed Republic supply convoys to Liinade III, hoping to draw off
much of the starship security around Coruscant. Just as they were about to launch their attack, the Republic - on a tip from Wedge
Antilles, who was working with the real Isard - attacked Ciutric. Before his forces could leave the system, Krennel found himself on the
brink of disaster. His fleet was decimated by the effectiveness of the Thrawn Pincer, Ciutric had been infiltrated and her planetary
shields dropped, and he had no firepower to bring to bear on the Republic ships. The combined fire of the Selonian Fire and the
Corusca Fire destroyed Krennel's flagship, the Reckoning, and Krennel was killed in the explosion. (XWMR, IR)
Krenth

Kresch
this quasi-sentient mollusk is native to the swamps of Naboo. The Gungans use them to store information in their underwater libraries.
The kresch has a single eye, which it can extend on a short stalk for viewing its environment. The blood of the kresch is unusual in that,
when the mollusk is poked or manipulated, the inky blood rearranges itself to display images and words. (GF)
Kress, Maxig
a native of the planet Tibro, this woman was wanted by the corporate leaders of Gandalom Paramedicinals for the theft of several
experimental compounds. She was rumored to have destroyed security droids and injured security personnel during the theft. She went
underground, using the alias Levesh Tolik in order to escape capture. A 25,000 credit bounty was placed on her head. (GG10)
Kressar
this crime boss found himself under attack from the Hutts. As he planned to have his gang passed into good hands, he put two
envelopes in his safe. After he was assassinated, his successor, Jorrn Kresh, found the envelopes. One envelope was labeled "Open
after you survive your first assassination attempt." The second was labeled "Open after you find out the Hutts are involved." Inside the
first envelope was a note with the advice, "Blame it all on me and my cronies." In the second envelope was another note saying, "Make
up two more envelopes..." (GG11)
Krestock
this bounty hunter paired up with Raxine in an effort to hunt down Philo Taal, although neither realized that there was no official bounty
posted. They disagreed over how to split the bounty, so they agreed to each take one of Philo's legs and pull until he split like a
wishbone. In the end, though, Raxine simply shot Philo dead. Raxine and Krestock never received payment, except for the fact that
Philo's brother, Reglis Taal, hunted them down adn executed them for their parts in Philo's death. (GG10)
Kretch
a creature which is found in the caverns of Belsavis, the kretch measures about a foot in length. It is a worm-like creature, a couple of
inches in diameter, with two sets of jaws filled with serrated teeth. Its tail is barbed, and is used to catch and hold its prey. The
creature's scary appearance was used as a deterrent by Belsavian parents. They often told their children that the kretch would catch
them and eat them if they did something bad. Nichos Marr's caretaker Margolis used to warn Nichos and his friends that the kretch
would catch them if they found Plett's Well. (COJ)
Kretch, Dalmeidan
this minor planetary official maintained a second occupation as a bounty hunter. He used his position within the Imperial bureaucracy to
learn of new bounties, then took "business trips" to acquire his targets. He hoped to make enough credits from hunting to leave politics
forever. (GG10)
Krev, Raquid
this cargo hauler and part-time smuggler owned an operated the freigther Lexus Primal during the early years of the New Republic. He

this species of reptilian beings was native to the planet Kriekaal. The Krieks resembled large turtles, with long necks and pointed
snouts. Like all shelled creatures, they could pull their extremities inside their shells whenever they were in danger. Krieks could walk
on their hind legs like humanoids, but preferred to walk on all-fours. In general, the Krieks are a quiet, gentle race. There were 43
distinct selio, or tribes, of Krieks, each led by a k'lar and guarded by a cadre of ken'kali. (SWJ13)
Kriekaal
this planet, the outermost of the two worlds in the Kriekaal System, was covered with relatively shallow oceans of molten duranium. The
planet was far enough from its aging orange star to cool periodically, and small continents of hardened duranium often formed. It was
on these "landmasses" that the native Krieks eked out their existence. Shortly after the Battle of Endor, twelve continents were in
existence when Korren Starchaser and his scouting team investigated the planet. (SWJ13)
Kriff
this is an Imperial swear word. (VOF)
Kriger
a Star Destroyer under the command of Captain Dor Reder. (WBC)
Krikthasi
an alien race native to the planet Baralou, the Krikthasi have been enemies of the Multopos for their entire existence. They were
descended from large, marine mollusks, and had long, flexible bodies studded with tentacles. Krikthasi have four well-developed eyes,
with a set of four tentacles emerging just behind their heads. They have two mouths, one for eating and another for breathing. They
used the water to help propel themselves through the water, expelling it through a group of vents at the rear of their bodies. Four more
tentacles surround their hindquarters. Their coloration helped them communicate, as each Krikthasi could manipulate the pattern of
their coloration to express complex concepts as well as emotions. The Krikthasi, in their seemingly endless war with the Multopos, have
discovered that the eggs of the Multopos were quite delicious, and eat them as a way of proving to themselves that the Multopos were
not sentient. (PG1, AE)
Kril
this creature, native to the planet Kidron, was raaised by the Orfites as a source of meat. (AE)

Krin
this man was an Imperial Captain, and commanded the Star Destroyer Adjudicator during the height of the New Order. He took Vimron
Trell under his wing, after Trell produced a wondrous feast that impressed Moff Renquet enough to have Renquet request that the
Adjudicator be reassigned as his personal fleet flagship. (CRO)
Krish
an alien race native to the planet Sanza, the Krish are smooth-skinned humanoids with large, wide heads. Their faces are dominated by
bony ridges above the eyes and along the nose, and their mouths are filled with rows of tiny, pointed teeth. They also have short, wiry
hair, and love playing games of any sort. In general, however, they were highly unreliable when it came to business matters. (EGC,
CRO, DTO, AE, SWJ1)
Kritkeen, Sinick
this Imperial COMPNOR General served as the planetary supervisor on Aruza, during the New Order. He bore a striking resemblance
to Han Solo, which is why the bounty hunter Dengar agreed to assassinate Kritkeen for the Aruzans. Kritkeen was working to enslave
the Aruzans, and they simply wanted their freedom. Dengar tracked Kritkeen and caught him, giving the Imperial a three-minute lead
before chasing him down. Dengar’s mind began believing that Kritkeen was Solo, and he relished the actions of placing an armed
concussion grenade in Kritkeen’s mouth and throwing the man off a cliff. (TBH)

for Lumpawarump’s Test of Ascension. (RD, TT)
Krizar
these vicious creatures were often used by crimelords to patrol their compounds. Krizar begin life as a shell-encased pupa, which must
exist in a nutrient slime until it can break through its shell. If a shelled pupa is removed from the slime, it dies quickly. Once it chews free
of the shell, the krizar must be incubated while they grow. Each krizar has a set of mouth palps that it uses like scissors, latching onto
the nearest heat source and chewing its way inward. (TFNR)

Kroctar
this planet was the merchant center and capital world of Shataum Sector in the decades following the Battle of Endor. Moff Disra, along
with Grodin Tierce and the con-man Flim - posing as the resurrected Thrawn - managed to bully the leaders of this world into a brief
alliance with the Imperial faction they represented. It is the homeworld of the Kroctari race. (VOF)
Kroctari
this race was native to the planet Kroctar. They were somewhat loyal to the Empire and its ideals, and felt that the Caamas Incident
was an indication of the lack of order maintained by the New Republic. They were willing to welcome Thrawn back to their planet, but
were unaware that Thrawn was actually the conman Flim, acting under the command of Moff Disra. (VOF)

Krovalis
this Nimbanese clan tried to apply for a data holding position under the Bureau of Ships and Services, shortly after the Bovark clan
debacle. They also applied for a position of power under the Hutt Clan of Ancients. After the Hutts accepted their petition, the Krovalis
Nimbanese asked them to allow the Krovalis clan to remain free, in return for access to Nimbanese data holdings under the BoSS. The
Hutts, led by Zochaeb the Hutt and seeing a easy source of information from a non-aggressive party, agreed to this. They pushed hard
on the BoSS to allow the Nimbanese to be re-instated as data holders. Thus, the Krovalis clan was the first of a new era of Nimbanese
holders. (GG12)
Krovas
this man was Jorkatt the Render's second-in-comnmand, until he was found drowned in a swimming accident. The presence of
plasticrete bricks in the pockets of his clothing was never explained. Later, Vohrkrewel Yahrkar assumed Krovas' persona whenever he

Krozurbian
this alien race was at war with itself for 200 years. A brutish, green-skinned retpiloid people, the Krozurbian civil war would have raged
longer if Master Zorneth hadn't slipped the leaders some savorium-laden thookah steaks. It was part of an experiment to verify to
himself the potency of the herb. The Krozurbian leaders dropped their arms and immediately ceased their hostilities. (DRO)
kRR

KRT410C
this was a model of Kurtob podracer. The cockpit of the KRT410C measured a scant 2.03 meters in length, while its engines were just
3.81 meters long. This made it one of the smallest racers of its day. However, this did not translate into more speed, as the KRT410C’s
top speed was around 775 kilometers per hour. (IG1)
Krudar
this surly Duros was one of the many gunners serving aboard the FarStar during its search for Moff Sarne in Kathol Sector. (KO)
Kruger, Moira
this woman, who fashioned herself as a Lady, owned and operated the Grinder Dance Hall in the boomtown of Corestrike, on Chrona,
during the early years of the New Republic. Along with Mortris and Arno Gallorr, Moira worked as one of the town's governmental
Adjuncts, although it was later revealed that Moira had been bought out by the crimelor Themog. Her origins were unknown, but she
was a prominent bantha-owner until the discovery of chronamite poisoned her herds. She nearly lost everything, until she won the
Grinder Dance Hall in a game of sabacc. Her detractors claim she cheated her way to the Grinder, having been a con artist and
gambler since her youth. Shortly before Mortris Gallorr began hiring mercenaries to try and protect Corestrike from criminals, Moira
began a relationship with Themog, and the two were inseparable. She allowed Themog to use the Grinder as a hideout. (SWJ12)

fellow Quarren or the authorities of Morjanssik. (DU)
Krunch
this Wookiee worked as Bolabo Hujaan's chief mechanic at Bolabo's Garage on Byblos. They met while serving together on a
smuggler's starship, and Krunch accompanied Bolabo when she set out on her own. According to Bolabo, the name Krunch was
chosen because that's what the Wookiee did to patrons who didn't pay for their repairs at the Garage. During the height of the Galactic
Civil War, Krunch rarely left the confines of the Garage, fearing that Imperial forces would enslave him. The patrons of Bolabo's Garage
always left happy, because Krunch was a highly skilled mechanic who could work wonders with almost any starship. (CRO)
Krung Dynasty

Krykis IV
it was on this planet that Doctor Corellia Antilles discovered the Voorlach Temple. (SWJ14)
Kryll
this Alliance General was in charge of the Outer Rim Communications Center during the Galactic Civil War. Kryll was an Imperial officer
who defected to the Alliance after the destruction of Alderaan. He often told his troops that he defected, not because of Alderaan, but
because the Empire didn't appreciate his wonderful tenor voice. He later served the New Republic on Generis. (RASB, TLC)

Krytollak
an alien race which worshipped the Emperor Palpatine during the reign of the New Order, the Krytollaks are a warm-blooded, insectile
species. They have hard, dense outer shells surrounding tough skeletal structures. Most Krytollaks have brown or black shells. A green
shell appears every so often, and is reverred as a sign of greatness. Nobles and ranking officials paint elaborate designs on the shells.
They have small eyes hidden within their facial plates, and beak-like mouths. Their ears are really a series of membranes arranged
around the facial plates, and they lack a nose as well as a sense of smell. They subsist on plant material and certain rocks and
minerals. They were technologically primitive and aloof when they were discovered during the latter years of the Old Republic. When
Palpatine rose to power, the Krytollaks - who believe in a single ruler of their own homeworld of Thandruss - deferred to his awesome
power. Many Krytollaks infiltrated the Alliance in an effort to provide information to the Empire. It is unknown how the Krytollaks have
adapted to life under the auspices of the New Republic. (GG12)
Krytos
this was the codename for Evir Derricote's alien bioweapon. The Krytos virus was developed to affect only aliens, not humans. This
was part of Ysanne Isard's master plan to expose the New Republic as unsympathetic to non-humans. The goal of the Krytos virus was
to infect all of the aliens on Coruscant just before the Republic could take control of the planet. Then, just as it was trying to position
itself as the dominant government in the galaxy, the aliens would suddenly become ill. The Krytos virus initially caused a stupor or
listlessness in aliens, followed by a dark discoloration of the skin. The skin would later crack and blister, then seem to melt away. The
Krytos virus was designed to infect a cell and multiply within the cell until the cell burst from the pressure. The suddenly-release viruses
would infect neighboring cells, continuing to multiply and explode cells. The virus affected all cells in an alien's body, including skin,
organs, and bones. One unique side effect of the Krytos virus is that it seemed to ignore nerve cells and pain receptors. Thus, the
victim was acutely aware of the pain the virus was causing.
Derricote developed the Krytos virus with an antidote: it could be counteracted by immersing the victim in large amounts of bacta. The
more widespread the virus is, the more bacta is required to eliminate it. This was the second part of Isard's plan. The Republic could
save all of the aliens by providing them with bacta, but it would have to bankrupt itself in order to do it. (WG)

Ku'Bakai
this blue giant star is the primary sun in the Ku'Bakai system, home to the planet Kubindi and three other, life-supporting worlds. The
Kubaz used these worlds (the sixth, eighth, and eleventh) as insect farms which cater to their every taste. The first four planets in the
system are sterile worlds, having been scoured by the intense solar flares given off by the star in a brief series of pulses millennia ago.
These flares are well-known to astronomers for their beauty. (SCRE, MTS, GG4, SWJ10)
Kuan
one of two habitable planets in the Taroon System, Kuan was invaded by the Empire just before the Battle of Hoth. Kuan and its sister
planet, Bordal, had been locked in a bitter, decades-old war, although no one remembered the exact cause. The Kuan economy was in
ruins, and the planetary government had declared martial law. The Empire, seeing an opportunity, entered the system to bring news of
Palpatine's removal of the supposed dead wood of the Old Republic. The Empire blamed the planet's economic crisis on the Old
Republic, and swayed the Kuani to join the Empire. The planet's primary inhabitants are human. The planet has many moons. (TIE)
Kuantar
this gas giant is the third world in the Kidron System, located in the Elrood Sector. It is surrounded by a spectacular ring system. (PG)
Kuar
this planet was the primary world in the Kuar System, which is located near the Empress Teta System. This world was adopted by the
ancient Mandalore warriors when they attacked the Tetan worlds prior to the Great Sith War. It was here, millenia later, that Fonterrat
provided Bornan Thul with a datadisk containing the location of the Emperor’s plague storehouse. (TSW, TEP)
Kuari
one of the ships dispatched to intercept the Teljkon vagabond, the Kuari was the ship that was able to get nearest to the vagabond.
Lando Calrissian's yacht, the Lady Luck, was tethered to the vagabond after Lando boldly gained access to the strange ship. When
Pakkpekatt ordered the Kuari nearer, the vagabond severed the connection to the Lady Luck and fired on the Kuari before jumping into
hyperspace. The Kuari sustained a great amount of damage, and there were many casualties and injuries. The dead and wounded
were taken to Nichen on the Kettemoor. (SOL)

Kuat
1) this planet was of prime importance to the New Order, for the Kuat Drive Yards shipyards there were among the first to mass-
produce warships for the Empire. The relationship blossomed, and the Kuat Drive Yards were made into the primary facility for the
construction of Star Destroyers. A forested world of pastoral beauty, It is located in the Kuat Sector, located in the most
densely-populated area of the galaxy. (SWSB, XWN, SWAJ, MA)
2) this was the name of the strongest of the many family clans which ruled the planet Kuat. Like all Kuati families, they continued to
enhance their bloodlines by using telbuns to birth their children. However, the Kuat family maintained a strong genetic structure, and
proved themselves more than able to manage the huge Kuat Drive Yards. Several generations prior to the Battle of Yavin, all the great
families agreed on the Inheritance Exemption, which allowed the Kuat family to pass control of KDY down through successive
generations. This was challenged by several families just prior to the Battle of Endor, a coup attempt which was successfully averted by
Kuat of Kuat only by nearly destroying the KDY facilities. (MA, SLS, HM)
3) this descendant of the ancient Kuat family controlled the vast Kuat Drive Yards during the last years of the Old Republic and
throughout the New Order. Although never truly appreciated, Kuat of Kuat worked diligently to maintain the independence of KDY in the
face of Emperor Palpatine’s growing power. He fiercely refused to be part of the first Death Star project, an action denounced by the
ruling families of Kuat until the station was destroyed near Yavin. Unknown to most of the Kuati clans until the end of the New Order,
Kuat even tried to eliminate Prince Xizor of Black Sun, when the Falleen began trying to take control of the shipyards. The plot involved
implicating Xizor in the deaths of Owen and Beru Lars on Tatooine, an event which Kuat recorded and later added traces of Falleen
pheromones to an olfactory sensor. If the plan worked, Luke Skywalker would break off his involvement with the Alliance long enough
to eliminate Xizor, thereby removing one of Kuat’s chief enemies. The plot never got a chance to succeed, because the droid containing
the falsified evidence was lost by its courier, Ree Duptom, when his ship’s engines failed. The droid fell into the hands of Boba Fett, and
Kuat found himself trying to kill the bounty hunter in order to recover the droid. Several attempts were made, including a bombing run in
the Tatooine desert near the Sarlacc pit, to ensure Fett’s death. These efforts didn’t go unnoticed, though, as several of the other Kuati
families took them as personal vendettas and signs that Kuat was no longer working in KDY’s best interests. The family’s plotting
eventually took in Kuat’s security chief, Fenald, and his replacement, Kodir of Kuhlvult. Through it all, however, Kuat maintained the
upper hand. In the end, he was forced to destroy the KDY facilities, rather than let them fall into the hands of anyone else. In this, too,
Kuat was thwarted by the efforts of the Alliance and Boba Fett himself. The bounty hunter managed to flee the destruction in a slaved
Star Destroyer, taking with him most of the explosives Kuat had hoped to use. In the end, Kuat returned to the main facilities and was
killed in the explosions he himself had set off. (MA, SLS, HM)
Kuat City

this sensationalist tabloid had an office on Coruscant, from which is reported on the trial of Tycho Celchu. (KT)
Kubaz
an alien race hailing from the planet Kubindi, the Kubaz have dark green skin, a prehensile trunk, and large eyes. Their eyes are
sensitive to the red spectrum of light, and often wear large goggles when they are away from their homeworld. They tend to be
clan-oriented, with each clan protecting its property from other rival clans. The intense solar flares from their planet's sun nearly
destroyed the majority of food sources on the planet, and the Kubaz were forced to hunt insects as a staple diet. This led to the rival
clans raiding each others' insect farms. These so-called Hive Wars were resolved when the Kubaz found a way to alter the genetics of
their insects to not only improve their reproduction, but to identify each hive by its colorings as property of a certain clan. This
newly-formed science of Insecticulture helped keep the rival clans from feuding, and also allowed the Kubaz to expand their horizons.
They eventually discovered space travel, and eventually populated three of the 11 worlds orbiting the sun Ku'Bakai. This ability to move
off-planet then introduced the Kubaz to their neighbors, the Verpine. Since the Verpine are an insectile race by nature, the space-faring
Kubaz found that the Verpine were tasty, and began to hunt them as an additional food source. (SW, TLC, SCRE, MTS, GG4)
Kubaz Insect
this small sculpture was carved from a single diamond-fusion crystal about a third of a meter in height. As a gemstone, its value was
incalculable. As a work of art, it was priceless. The statue was stolen by the small-time theived Lauren and Sam from the collection of
Rock'co on Narigus III, although it was later discovered that Rock'co's statue was a fake. (GMS)
Kubaz Xirconia
this abundant, clear stone is often used as a substitute for real diamonds. (MJEH)
Kubindi
this planet is the homeworld of the Kubaz, and is the fifth planet orbiting the sun Ku'Bakai. Kubindi orbits very close to Ku'Bakai, and the
frequent solar flares raze the planet's surface, destroying much of the plant and animal life. The primary survivors of the flares were
insects. There are millions of species on the planet today. Other creatures which managed to survive had to evolve into insect-eaters,
like the Kubaz. They now inhabit the 6th, 8th, and 11th worlds in the Ku'Bakai system, with only the poor or disgraced Kubaz still
clinging to existence on Kubindi. Kubindi is located in the Calaron Sector. The day on Kubindi lasts 48 standard hours, and it year
encompasses 420 local days. The planet was overtaken by the Yuuzhan Vong some twenty-six years after the Battle of Endor,
following in the wake of Falleen and Rodia. Kyp Durron and his group of vigilantes, Kyp’s Dozen, held off the aliens long enough for
every spaceworthy ship to flee the planet. It was believed that the Kubaz were attractive targets to the Yuuzhan Vong because of their
history of genetic manuipulation of insects. (TLC, SCRE, MTS, REB, SWJ10, BP)
Kucedre
this Gallofree medium transport was used by the Alliance to transport bacta during the Galactic Civil War. (XWA)
Kucha-sculpt
this was a form of Expansionist Era Hutt artwork. (SSR)
Kud’ar Mub’at
this assembler served the galaxy as a go-between and middleman for much of its less glamourous – or legal – activities. Like most
assemblers, Kud’ar Mub’ar gained its independence by consuming the assembler which created it. Among Mub’at’s most regarded
functions was as holder in escrow of the credits placed for the bounty on a being’s life. This allowed the poster of the bounty to remain
out of the path of danger, while ensuring the timely and accurate delivery of the goods. The assembler was not without its own
defenses, having acquired a number of weapons from the ships of individuals which tried to swindle it. Kud’ar Mub’at also salvaged
sublight engines for use in moving its web through space. In essence, any being visiting the web was walking within Kud’ar Mub’at’s
own brain, and was constantly under surveillance. After the development of the subnode called Balancesheet, Mub’at was able to be in
two places at once. He himself would see to one customer, while Balancesheet – operating from one of Mub’at’s shed carapaces –
would attent to the other. Among the assembler’s largest customers was the Bounty Hunters Guild, which used the assembler’s
services to ensure prompt payments of the bounties its members collected. Kud’ar Mub’at was also involved in a great deal of political
and powerful intrigue, including the plans of Kuat of Kuat and Prince Xizor of Black Sun. Together, they orchestrated the destruction of
the Bounty Hunters Guild and plotted the death of Boba Fett. It was Kud’ar Mub’at who convinced Boba Fett to join the Guild in order to
bring about its destruction. At first, the bounty hunter was unaware of the assembler’s alliance with Xizor. However, the state of the
galaxy during the Galactic Civil War and the ability of Boba Fett to avoid death made these plans tenuous at best. These plans also
kept Mub’at’s attention on the outside galaxy, allowing the subnode Balancesheet to gain intelligence and autonomy from its creator.
Balancesheet entered an alliance with Xizor, and together they brought about the destruction of Kud’ar Mub’at and its web. Kud’ar
pleaded with Boba Fett to take hime away, but Fett declined the offer. The pieces of the web drifted for several years before they were
approached by Fett, along with Dengar and Neelah, who hoped to re-animate the assembler and learn more about Kuat’s plans.
Although the assembler was brought back to life, its memory was damaged and it couldn’t provide the information it needed.
Balancesheet then returned to its creator and destroyed it utterly, firing laser cannons into the web and incinerating much of it. This
seemed to please Mub’at, who wanted the release of true death. (MA, SLS, HM)

Kuellar
1) this ancient Almania military leader served as an army general several centuries before the Galactic Civil War. A human, Kuellar
conquered the planet and the Je’Har before taking control of the entire Almanian System and the surrounding sector. Although he was
generally regarded as ruthless and deadly, Kuellar was also known as a beloved and respected leader to the Almanian peoples. (TNR)
2) the pseudonym adopted by the failed Jedi student Dolph, during his attempt to wrest power from Leia Organa-Solo and take control
of the New Republic. Dolph assumed the name Kuellar after defeating the Je’Har, and he began using a Hendanyn death mask to
cover his face. The mask hung on a silver chain when he wasn’t wearing it. (TNR)
Kufbrug
this Gamorrean sow was a member of the Bolgoink clan, and was married to Vrokk. After Vrokk was murdered, Kufbrug brought out a
series of parchments which she claimed were love letters from Guth. She produced them as corroborating evidence of Guth's signature
on a document which challenged Vrokk to a duel. Vrokk died shortly after reading the document, killed by a poison hidden in the seal
used to close it. Callista Ming, however, knew that Guth couldn't sign his own name, let alone write love letters. Despite Callista's

this Hutt was one of Jabba's most efficient underlings, during his reign as the top Hutt crimelord. She was loyal and also quick-witted,
and wasted no time in carving out her own piece of Jabba's empire following his death on Tatooine. Shortly afterward, Kumac
engineered an escape plan that freed Brahle Logris from prison on Tamazall. She hoped to use Logris' talents to her own advantage,
but Logris was eventually captured by the Sector Rangers. (GG11)
Kumauri
this starshipwright developed several warship designs during the Old Republic, including the Cal-class warship. They operated under
the control of Vall Kumauri, and based many of their designs on the original Kumauri Battleship. (CRO)
Kumauri, Vall
some 10,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, this upstart young warlord seized control of several remote star systems in an effort to
establish his own little empire outside the control of the Old Republic. He had a great deal of knowledge about starships, and was
instrumental in the design and manufacture of the Kumauri Battleship, named for himself. His shiny star collapsed and imploded after
only a few years, but the designs of the Kumauri Battleship was maintained and modified by Kumauri starshipwrights. (CRO)
Kumauri Battleship
this ancient ship was designed and manfuactured by Vall Kumauri, and served as the flagship of his personal fleet. Its design was
considered highly-advanced for its age - some 10,000 years before the Battle of Yavin - and was best-known for the huge mass drive
weapon slung over its main hull. It was also armed with several tractor beams, which were used to capture asteroids for use as
projectile weapons. Once collected, the asteroids were shot out of the mass drive weapon's bore at a target. These natural weapons
were capable of leveling entire cities, and made the Kumauri Battleship a terror to confront. Many of its design aspects, including the
mass drive weapon, were later incorporated into the Cal-class warship. (CRO)
Kun, Exar
a Jedi student of Vodo-Siosk Baas on Dantooine, Exar Kun used Vodo's holocron to learn about the ancient Sith. Exar Kun didn't like
the fact that Vodo, not to mention his fellow students Crado and Sylvar, were not human, and he continually goaded them. He nearly
killed Sylvar during a lightsaber training exercise, and she clawed him on the right cheek. Vodo stopped the duel before someone was
killed, and challenged Kun to a duel between Kun's skill with a lightsaber and Vodo's skill with a walking stick. Vodo nearly defeated
Kun, but Kun snatched another lightsaber and attacked his Master. Vodo's stick was broken, and Kun's rage passed as he felt he was
victorious. Exar Kun then left Dantooine to try and obtain the Sith artifacts that had been found on Onderon. He entered the tomb of
Freedon Nadd and was controlled by Nadd's evil spirit. Nadd led Kun to Korriban, where Kun discovered a pair of Sith scrolls that
tantalizingly led him further down the path to the Dark Side. Kun tried to resist, but Nadd nearly killed him before offering assistance.
However, the assistance required Kun to give himself to the Dark Side. Kun chose to live, and was drawn into the Dark Side's power.
Then, Nadd directed Kun to go to Yavin 4, where he should complete the work of Naga Sadow. On Yavin 4, Kun again tried to
renounce Nadd's teachings, and was captured by the Massassi. They tried to sacrifice Kun in a blood ceremony, during which Nadd's
spirit goaded him down the Dark path. Exar Kun called out to the Dark Side in anger, and a Sith amulet was drawn to his power. It
fused to his arm, and he was suddenly endowed with the power of the Sith. He took control of the Massassi, and exterminated Nadd's
spirit. As the months went by, Exar Kun found Naga Sadow's works and began to gain more and more Sith power. Once he felt that he
was powerful enough, he went to the Empress Teta System to defeat Aleema and Satal Keto and claim his position as Sith lord. When
he arrived, Keto had already been killed by Ulic Qel-Droma, so Kun tried to defeat him in battle. The ancient Sith masters were drawn to
the pair's incredible Dark Side power, and halted the battle. They named Kun the Dark Lord of the Sith, and Qel-Droma his Apprentice.
They went into hiding, and continued to gain power. Kun was able to lure several young Jedi Knights to his cause, including Oss Willum
and Crado. On Yavin 4, Kun showed them the Sith holocron, which he destroyed in a display of power. The shards exploded outward,
piercing the young Jedi and possessing them with Sith demons. When the time was right, they exploded into the galaxy as Sith
warriors. Kun ordered his young disciples to exterminate their Jedi Masters in a fiendish pogrom. Thus, the Great Sith War was started.
Kun and Qel-Droma's forces killed millions in their rampages. When Qel-Droma was captured and put to trial on Coruscant, Kun and
Mandalore arrived to retrieve him. In a show of power, Kun put the entire court into suspended animation, killing the Old Republic's
highest official and eventually murdering Master Vodo. Kun later raided Ossus, in an attempt to steal the ancient Jedi and Sith lore
stored there. This effort was cut short when Aleema destroyed the Cron System, and Kun was forced to flee back to Yavin 4 to regain
his strength. The war would have continued, but the end of the war was quickened when Qel-Droma was captured on Ossus by Master
Thon. He was cut off from the Force by Nomi Sunrider, and betrayed Kun by providing the location of Kun's power - the temples on
Yavin 4 - to the Jedi. The Jedi then met Exar Kun on the jungle moon, where Kun drew on the Massassi spirits in an effort to gain
strength and make a last stand against the Jedi. Exar Kun was defeated by the Jedi, but only his body was destroyed. Kun consumed
the Massassi in an effort to lock his spirit away in the temples on Yavin 4, where it remained until Luke Skywalker started training his
new Jedi Knights there more than 4000 years later. Kun tried to control the emerging Jedi Knights, but his hold was tenuous. His first
attempt at controlling one of them led to the death of Gantoris. Kyp Durron was his second attempt, but Kyp used Kun's power in an
attempt to destroy the Empire. In a final battle with Luke's Jedi students, Kun was defeated by the combined strength of all the
students. At his final death, Kun's former teacher Vodo Siosk-Baas appeared to claim him. Several months later, after escaping from
Leonia Tavira and the Jensaarai, Luke Skywalker allowed Corran Horn to destroy Kun's statue and temple with a series of proton
torpedoes, utterly wiping out the primary source of dark side energy on the moon. (DA, DLS, TSW, COTF, IJ)

a race native to the Kishh district of the Braad continent of Bakura, the Kurtzen had pale, white skin and ridges instead of hair on their
heads. Humanoid in stature, the Kurtzen were suffering from a number of diseases and malnutrition when human colonists first landed
on Bakura. They gladly traded land for medical supplies and access to newer treatments, and the population steadied for many years.
The appearance of the Empire actually helped the Kurtzen further, although many were displaced to the Kishh’daar continent. After the
Empire took control of the planet, a generation gap formed among the Kurtzen society, as the younger members began using more
technology and began ignoring the traditions of their families, while the older Kurtzen struggled to maintain their heritage. (TB, TBSB)

wrecked spaceship in Tatooine's wastes with some Jawas, and snuck out of Jabba's palace with some guards to recover it. One of the
Gamorreans that went with him, Orrtug, was brutally attacked by the Rancor when they first located it. Bidlo was able to knock the
Rancor senseless by detonation a stun grenade near it. Then, he and Bib Fortuna presented the Rancor to Jabba as a birthday
present. Jabba was pleased and astounded by the gift, but having learned that Bidlo took his prized Gamorreans on an unauthorized
mission into the desert, served Bidlo up as the Rancor's first meal in captivity. When Luke Skywalker was fed to the Rancor, it is
rumored that he used Bidlo Kwerve’s skull to activate the door which crushed the Rancor and killed it. (SWSB, TJP,CCG7)

Kyss, Leda
this Rabaanite was Mika Streev’s closest friend and lover, and was a member of the warrior caste. She had earned the red bandoleer,
but had not yet achieved the sunburst sigil of combat artist like Streev. The primary reason behind this was her open mind to other
opportunities, outside the scope of combat. She is an accomplished pilot, and traveled off-world a number of times while transporting
Rabaanite dignitaries to other planets. It was during these trips that she saw the Empire for what it was: a ruthless machine concerned
with its own goals, including the destruction of the Alliance. After helping a group of Alliance agents flee an Imperial starport, she
intermittently assisted the Alliance, primarily in the Circarpous System. When the Empire threatened the Ishanna System, she tried to
turn Streev toward the Alliance. She was met by a group of Alliance agents who were attempting to halt Imperial progress in the
system, and they went to the Combat Moon to rescue Streev. In a firefight on Rabaan’s Combat Moon, Leda was shot in the head by

a mammalian race native to the planet Laboi II, they are furred snakelike creatures which survive the planet's intense weather. They live
in packs which roam the planet in search of ovolyans, all the time making sure that they don't fall prey to the ovolyans themselves. The
largest male is considered the pack leader, although true leadership comes from age. The laboi have cultivated unique, carefully-
tended gardens of crystals, and they seem to have a limited form of telekinesis which allows them - especially the older females - to
agitate the molten rock and crystal to form beautiful, subtly colored crystals. These crystals are highly desired on many Core Worlds.
(GG4)
Laboi II
the second planet in the Laboi System, Laboi II has a year which encompasses about 4,050 standard hours. However, Laboi II has a
slow, retrograde orbit causes one side of the planet to remain sunward for about 2,020 hours. During this time, the planet's sun, Er'Dox
Kaan, heats one side of the planet to the point where rocks begin to melt. When coupled with the fact that the other side of the planet is
locked in sub-zero temperatures, strong winds are created at the terminus which help dsitribute the heat and cold evenly. This allows
minimal life to exist on the planet. Laboi II has no natural plant life because of the searing effects of its orbit, but the Laboi, the ovolyan,
and numerous species of insects have been able to adapt to the extreme temperatures of the planet. (GG4)

New Republic, but was eventually rescued by Corran Horn and Dynba Tesc. Tycho Celchu claimed to be meeting with him at the time
Corran Horn claimed to see Celchu talking with Kirtan Loor at The Headquarters. They were supposed to be discussing a supply of Z-
95 parts. He disappeared shortly afterward, and could not be found to testify at Celchu's trial. In addition, more than 247 Duros were
known to be dead from the Krytos virus, so his wherabouts could not be pinpointed. It was suspected that he was either eliminated by
Imperial forces, or was working under an alias. His death was confirmed to Nawara Ven by Kirtan Loor, during their initial meeting at the
Hutt Haven. (WG, KT, TFE)

this male Devaronian discovered a handfull of datacards at the base of Mount Tantiss, some ten years after the death of Grand Admiral
Thrawn. Among them was a card entitled “The Hand of Thrawn” and a card describing the Bothan involvement in the destruction of
Caamas. He claimed to have ownership of them by way of the Debble Agreement, but Leia under that agreement Leia could recover
the cards after making proper restitution. He nearly escaped from Wayland with the cards, but was apprehended by Leia Organa-Solo’s
Noghri bodyguards. He stillmanaged to escape with a copy of the Caamas datacard, and freely dispensed the little bit of information it
contained until he was caught by Mazzic. Lak Jit was then locked away by Mazzic and Talon Kaarde until the Caamas Incident could be
resolved. (SOP)
Lak Sivrak
a Shistavanen scout, hiding from Imperial persecution on Tatooine. He was employed by the Empire as a scout, exploring the edges of
known space in an effort to map out shipping routes for the Empire's growing mining operations. During one of his missions, he came
across a group of dishomed colonists, who were actually members of the Alliance. He thought they were just settlers, and he offered his
help in keeping them from starving. They tried to convert him to the beliefs of the Alliance, but he declined. He did, however, agree to
keep their location a secret. The Empire, however, following up on his mission, discovered the settlers and interrogated them, learning
of Lak Sivrak's ommission about their whereabouts. He was cut off from Imperial employment and chased off, persecuted and outlawed
for helping the Alliance. Seeking shelter on a backwater world, Sivrak ended up on Tatooine, and was present in the Mos Eisley cantina
when Obi-Wan and Luke approach Han Solo for passage to the Alderaan system. While there, he met Dice Ibegon, a Florn Lamproid
whose Force sensitivity connected with his own. In a strange relationship, the two joined the Alliance. Dice was never sure if Sivrak
joined because of her or if he truly cared about the Alliance. Sivrak served as part of the ground force in the Battle of Hoth, but Dice did
not survive the Imperial attack. Sivrak despaired, but Dice's Force-image visited him often, taking him back to the cantina and proving to
him that, despite his love for her, the Alliance still needed his services. Sivrak's growing competance with a starfighter got him his own
X-Wing, and he flew in the Battle of Endor. Unfortunately, his ship was shot down, and he did not survive the crash. His Force-image
was strong enough, though, that it joined those of Dice, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, and Anakin Skywalker at the final celebration. (SW,

Lambarian Crab was later salvaged by Linx Mallicker and Fillio Androu, who used the ship to smuggle guns and weapons to the Outer
Rim Territories. The Crab was armed with a turret-mounted heavy double-laser cannon and an ion cannon. (SS)

Lan Barell
the fourth planet in the Lan System, Lan Barell is an arid world of deserts and tundra. Much of the planet’s water supply is contained in
its small polar icecaps. The crust of the planet was lden with deposits of iron, giving it a blue sheen. This unusual coloration, combined
with the dim red light of the star Lan, made Lan Barell a garish place to exist. The planet’s surface was dominated by desert wastes,
with several huge plateaus forming “continents” above it. It is the homeworld of the Qieg race of small insectoids, who inhabited the
plateaus and the Cacti Forests. The planet once had three moons, but one of them has been reduced to rubble because of Qieg

Lancer-class Frigate
an Imperial capital ship built by Kuat Drive Yards, the Lancer-class was proposed by Admiral Drez following the Battle of Yavin. KDY
built a limited number of them as test prototypes, but found that they were very expensive to build. The Lancer's primary mission was to
screen off enemy starfighters early in an engagement, paving the way for large ship-to-ship combat which Imperial-class Star
Destroyers were more than capable of winning. The Lancer-class didn't get a fair chance to prove its worth until Grand Admiral Thrawn
appeared from the Unknown Regions. He was able to put the Lancers to work in key raiding missions on New Republic worlds. These
250-meter-long ships normally have a crew of 850, with room for 40 additional troops. They are equipped with 20 quad-laser cannon
batteries. (DFR, TLC, JS, ISB, EGV)

Lando's Folly
this asteroid system, located near the planets Destrillion and Dubrillion, was purchased by Lando Calrissian and used to mining as well
as intense forms of starship racing. The race course was actually a way for Lando to develop a way to get to Kerane's Folly, the
legendary platinum asteroid hidden in Hoth's asteroid belt. Lando hoped to develop ways to find the asteroid, mine it, and protect his
claim from other hunters by monitoring the races and the reactions of the pilots to the asteroids. Lando also developed a method of
using remote-controlled repulsors to protect the ships from bumping into the asteroids. Always looking for ways to save money, Lando
obtained several decommissioned TIE Advanced x1 starfighters and TIE Bombers for use in flying through the asteroids. Lando's
technicians developed a system known as collision shields, a combination of repulsor fields, shields, and defensive arrays to protect the
small ships, all of which were operated from a remote station like Belt-Runner I. The idea of running the field was to stay operative as
long as possible, thereby providing Lando with a way to remain within the Hoth asteroid belt long enough to find and mine Kerane's
Folly. Kyp Durron held the record for duration until Jaina Solo more than doubled it on her first run. (VP)

were known as farmers, and could mold the elements of life into previously-unseen forms. This form of genetic manipulation was
regarded as a sin against the Tsinimal gods, resulting in the conquest of Langhesa. Those Langhesi which inhabited the lowlands of
Zonama Sekot were employed by the original Magister as the forgers and shapers of Sekotan technology, for their skills with organic
materials complimented the patterns of growth observed among the boras. (RP)

that he had found the murder weapon - a vibro-shiv - at the scene, and reminded all the combatants that Hobors never used vibro-
shivs. Jake Harthan became enraged at the discovery and lashed out, only to learn that C-3PO had bluffed him into admitting the crime.
After Jake was killed and a war averted between the Troobs and Hobors, a distraught Larka chose to leave Tahlboor for awhile,
accompanying Counselor Harthan to the Tion Hegemony to allow her peoples to work out their own peace. (DRPC)

Larm
this former Imperial Navy Admiral served under Moff Gentelles in the years after the Battle of Yavin. He was a by-the-book officer, who
tended to kiss more boots that he polished. He rose through the Naval ranks on Getelles’ coattail, maintaining his tough soldier exterior
while bending to Getelles’ every wish. It was Larm who commanded the Imperial fleet which blockaded Leia Organa-Solo and the
Alliance agents sent to rescue her. Larm was killed in the battle, when Luke Skywalker and the Spook-crystal tsil on Nam Chorios used
the Force to turn the Loronar Needles against the Reliant, just as the small ship docked with Larm’s Carrack-class cruiser. The Reliant,
taking Larm’s ship with it. His fleet was forced back into the Antemeridian Sector when Daala’s independent fleet arrived to supplement

this woman was a highly-skilled assassin, and was hired by Gornt Seron to eliminate specific targets. She carefully maintained the
rumors and appearance that Kyr Laron was a man, and used an associate named Shiaer Hifron to conduct most of her business. Kyr
was fond of using highly-toxic, poisonous gases and neurotoxins to kill her victims, a clue which gave the New Republic information
about her activities. She moved about often, to avoid detection, and spent most of her travel time in her personel starship, the Incom
Explorer Scout ship known as the Hell's Axe. (WBC)

were interrupted when Obi-Wan Kenobi asked them to adopt Luke Skywalker. Obi-Wan appealed to Beru's feminine side with Luke's
plight, and she convinced Owen to accept the boy into their family. She was killed when stormtroopers, following the information trail left
by C-3PO and R2-D2, razed their farm in search of the droids. Beru was portrayed by Shelagh Fraser in Star Wars, and by Anne
Gerety for the Star Wars Radio Drama on National Public Radio. (SW, SCRE, SWR)

Karl. (ML)
Lars, Owen
Luke's adoptive Uncle. Owen was the younger brother of Obi-Wan Kenobi and, as such, was always expected to live up to his brother's
greatness. Owen did not want that kind of pressure, so he and his young wife, Beru Weth, moved to Tatooine and set up a moisture
farm. When Obi-Wan showed up years later, asking them to take in the infant Luke Skywalker, Owen refused, until Beru was able to
convince him that it would be okay. Owen then raised Luke as he would his own son, instilling the values of honesty and hard work into
the boy. He did his best to keep Luke from realizing his true identity, for he felt that the ways of the Empire would only corrupt the young
boy. He masked this by saying that he needed Luke's help on the farm. Owen was a gruff and stern master, always chiding Luke for
wanting to spend time with his friends and not at his chores. When Luke saved up enough credits to purchase a landspeeder, Owen
went with him to make sure he didn't get taken. He also bought Luke T-16 skyhopper, and worked with Luke to keep it in flyable
condition. When Owen purchased the droids R2-D2 and C-3PO, Luke tried to talk him into submitting an application to the Academy
early. Owen refused, sensing that Luke was about to continue his father's legacy of trying to save the galaxy through the use of some
silly religious belief. He told Luke that he needed to remain on Tatooine one more season, and Luke stormed off. The rift between them
never got any smaller, especially when Luke left early the next morning without giving him any warning. Owen was killed when a group
of stormtroopers, tracking down the droids R2-D2 and C-3PO, razed the moisture farm after not finding the droids. Owen was portrayed
by Phil Brown in Star Wars. He was also portrayed by Thomas Hill for the Star Wars Radio Drama on National Public Radio. (SW,

Lasat
native to the remote planet of Lasan, this species of humanoid evolved from predatory canines. They had slender builds, but their large
heads were dominated by huge eyes and large ears used to dissipate heat. Their jaws and tooth structure are indicative of their canine
ancestry, with heavy teeth and strong musculature. They were a tribal, nomadic race that caught its food by trapping rather than
hunting. They histories were maintained in a collection of core truths hidden within mythological tales of heroism. Their level of
technology was primitive at the time of the Galactic Civil War, with real science and technology still being thought of a magic. (AE)
Laser
a device which uses a photonic beam generator to combine coherent energy into packets that can be aimed at a target. Upon striking
the target, the packets split the target's molecular structure to varying degrees, based on the strength of the packets emitted. The
packets can be generated to lightly stun a target or completely vaporize it. (SWSB)
Laser Battery
another form of starship laser weapon, the laser battery uses a self-contained atomic battery to generate electromagnetic energy. This
means that laser batteries are large weapons, unsuited for small starships. They are also much more powerful that laser cannons, but
generate intense amounts heat, and must be cooled after each shot. (SWSB)
Laser Cannon
these versatile weapons are used on starships. They can be mounted almost anywhere, provided that they can be powered separately
from the ship's main power. There are different sizes and configurations of laser cannons, from small, single cannons to the quad-laser
cannons. They employ quad-helix prismatic crystals to generate a laser beam, which is focused through a polarized alloy. The color
and size of the beam can be modified, allowing a ship to sometimes fire "invisible" lasers as part of a surprise attack. The physics of
these invisible shots, however, are not detectable by most sensors, and cannot be easily targetted. (SW, SWSB)

this room was one of the many Game Chambers of Questal. A perfect square, the room’s floor was marked with an eight-by-eight grid.
Twelve columns, placed on various subsquares in the grid, run from floor to ceiling. Each column is armed with four lasers, each facing
an ordinal direction in the room. The lasers fire in a pattern, two at a time, and the pattern repeats every 90 seconds. Moff Bandor, to
make the maze even harder, installed a low-level tanglefoot field on certain subsquares. The object for prisoners of the chambers was
to traverse the maze from one side to the other without getting shot up by the lasers. (GCQ)
Last Call

this woman graduated from a prominent medical school on the planet Rhinnal. However, to relieve the pressure of her studies, she
started consuming ryll spice. Over time, the spice led to her gambling and stealing to obtain more spice. Annea managed to graduate,
but lost her internship when she was too frayed from the spice to concentrate on a surgery. The patient was the son of an Imperial
governor's chief aide, and the boy died because she miscalculated on dose of painkillers and sped through the operation. Rather than
face the consequences of her mistakes, Annea fled Rhinnal and hid out in the Outer Rim. She tried to return to the life of a doctor, but
the pressure kept getting to her and her spice addition returned. She soon found herself on the run again, pursued by spice dealers
whom she had not paid. (PSG)
Lavisar
this planet was actually once part of a much larger planetary body, until a series of asteroid collisions broke the larger world apart.
Many of the fragments were too small to become anything more than asteroids themselves, but the largest part remained fairly stable
and eventually became the planet Lavisar. The larger remaining pieces became moons of the planet. It is composed of heavy metals
and ores, and has a higher than standard gravity. This is a remnant of the original planet, which had an incredibly-high gravity. Lavisar
remained neutral during the Galactic Civil War and the battles which followed on the heels of the Battle of Endor. Its abundance of
heavy ores, along with its shipyards, made it a prime world for addition to Zsinj's empire. Wraith Squadron ran a false assault on the
planet, from its base on the Mon Remonda, in order establish the presence of the squadron in Han Solo's fleet. This allowed them to
also use the identities of the Hawk-bats near Halmad. (IF)

Leed
this Rutanian youth was the first-born son of King Frane, and the heir to the throne of Rutan, some twelve years before the Battle of
Naboo. He had spent most of his life on the moon Senali, in accordance with tradition, but refused to return to Rutan on his sixteenth
birthday. Frane refused to believe that Leed had made the decision on his own, and accused Meenon of forcing the boy to stay.
However, the Jedi Knights Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi learned that Leed had felt out of place on Rutan all his life, and genuinely
wanted to remain on Senali. Leed revealed that his father, King Frane, had once sent him to jail for refusing to take part in a hunt. Leed
had even enlisted the help of his adoptive sister, Drenna, in hiding out on a remote island. After meeting with the Jedi, Leed even
offered his position as heir to the throne of Rutan to his brother, Taroon, in an effort to remain with the Senali. Unknown to Leed,
however, Taroon had been planning to unseat his brother all along. Taroon’s plans were too far along to stop, and a group of disguised
Rutanians captured Leed an held him prisoner. Taroon hoped to blame the kidnapping on the Ghost Ones, thereby creating a void in
the Rutanian monarchy which he would fill. However, King Frane wanted only Leed to succeed him. The two Jedi eventually rescued
Leed and brought both brothers to Rutan, where they explained themselves to their father. Frane realized that Leed truly enjoyed the
company of the Senali, and also that Taroon was not merely a “second son.” In the end, Frane discovered that Taroon would be a
better leader than Leed, and he allowed Leed to return to Senali as the first official ambassador for both worlds. (SP)

Leith, Aurin
this Alliance doctor was trained in the art of medicine at the Byblos Academy of Medicine, where she was taught to "first ,do no harm."
She was a native of Coruscant, whose parents were supporters of the Old Republic. When Emperor Palpatine rose to power, their
fortunes changed dramatically, and Aurin decided she wanted nothing to do with politics. After her training, she served at the University
Faculty Medical Center on Ralltiir, where she first heard of the Alliance from a friend who survived an Imperial interrogation. Her own
beliefs and feelings were dedicated mainly to helping the sick, and she grew frustrated at the Empire's bureaucracy surrounding
everything she did. After joining the Alliance, Aurin was assigned to the crew of the Pharos. When she was assigned to the assault
team that went to Selnesh to liberate Gebnerret Vibrion, she found that her training came into conflict with her duties. Commander
Briessen told Aurin that, if she couldn't rescue Vibrion, then she would have to administer a fatal dosage of medicine to keep Virbion's
knowledge a secret. Vibrion went along, as part of Lieutenant Haslam's team, with the expectation that she would recover Vibrion alive.
While he succeeded in this part of the mission, he was forced to shoot and kill an Imperial stormtrooper who got between them and
their escape ship. She received the Field Achievement Award, but felt that she'd violated her sacred oath to her profession. (SWJ10,

sight of one of Bel Iblis' bases, in use by Mazzic during the New Republic's campaign against Grand Admiral Thrawn. The planet is
prone to violent thunderstorms, and these storms once caused the bi-state memory plastic buildings used by Kaarde to revert to their
compact state, trapping nearly fifty people inside. (DFR, TLC)
Lemelisk, Bevel
Lemelisk began his infamous career with the Old Republic, designing starships with Walex Blissex. He had trouble controlling his
naturally violent tendencies until the Republic ordered the design and development of the Victory-class Star Destroyer. Lemelisk put
himself into the work, creating the basis for a new generation of capital ships that eventually grew into the Eclipse-class terrors of the
subsequent clones of Emperor Palpatine. After Palpatine rose to power, Lemelisk was sequestered at the Maw Installation, and was
chosen by Grand Moff Tarkin to build the first production Death Star. He was an overweight man with pale features, including spiky
white hair. He was killed by Emperor Palpatine for not fully reporting any possible flaws with the first Death Star. Palpatine had him
eaten alive by the piranha beetles from Yavin 4, but not before Palpatine had his mind and his memories transferred into a waiting
clone. He has served the Empire ever since, in seven cloned bodies required by numerous executions for failure. Lemelisk was
responsible for the design of the Tarkin warship, and repaired the flaws of the first Death Star for the battle station that was built near
Endor. When the Empire began to crumble following the deaths of Palpatine and Thrawn, he became indentured to Durga the Hutt, and
helped Durga create the Mineral Exploiters. The mining ships were a ruse for the real plot in Durga's mind, the creation of a new Death
Star. This was the real reason for his serving Durga: to revamp the old designs and created a new super weapon. He redesigned the
old Death Star, removing nearly everything but the superlaser itself. This new design was dubbed the Darksaber, since it appeared to
be a huge, space-going lightsaber when the superlaser was activated. However, Durga's frugality and Sulamar's ineptness meant that
Lemelisk was forced to build with second-rate, outdated materials and components. On top of that, Durga insisted that Lemelisk use the
captive taurills as workers, and they were too easily distracted to perform a quality job. Lemelisk reworked many systems himself, in
order to keep the setbacks hidden from Durga's eyes. In the end, too many poor systems and too much inferior material told him that
the Darksaber would never function properly. When the New Republic infiltrated the Darksaber, Lemelisk slipped away in the confusion,
and escaped in a maintenance pod. He was captured by the Yavaris and taken to Coruscant for trial. (DTSC, JS, DS, EGV)

hoped to develop as a central controller of space station operations. However, as the experimental development of X0-X1 progressed,
Doctor Len started to see problems in its personality. He hired Doctor Vreen away from Bioniip Laboratories, hoping to have Vreen
solve the problems he had encountered. Len then contacted Walex Blissex and told him about the X0-X1 prototype, hoping to turn the
technology over to the Alliance. However, Vreen soon stole the prototype and planned to sell it to the Empire. The Alliance dispatched a
team of agents to protect Doctor Len, but they arrived on Cloud City too late to save him. Len was killed by F-3PO, a droid which had
been taken over by X0-X1, before the Alliance agents could rescue him. (CCC)

Lepusa
this creature, native to the planet Freliq, has been at the center of a debate ever since its discovery some twenty years before the Battle
of Yavin. These one-meter-tall rodents seem to possess a limited form of sentience, and most natives of Freliq swear that there is an
innate intelligence in the eyes of a lepusa. Xeonibiologists from other planets claim this is more sentiment and science, and that the
lepusa is simply vermin. Large numbers of lepusa were originally killed when the planet was first colonized, but over time the settlers
became aware of the lepusa's talents. They live in groups of 70 to 100 individuals, and seem to have a crude social order to their
groupings. They were herbivorous, and ate the crops of the original colonists before "learning" that those plantings were off-limits.

claimed that the Bothans were responsible for the deaths of two of their own during the riots on Bothawui, and demanded either the
guilty Bothans or the deaths of ten Bothans for each Leresai. This was in accordance with Leresan law, which demanded “a claw for a
claw, a horn for a horn, a life for a life.” Rogue Squadron tried to intervene, but their ships had been sabotaged by Leresan
maintenance workers on Di’tai’ni, and were unable to prevent the attack. The Leresai attacked a zero-gee crystal manufacturing plant in
orbit around Bothawui, claiming the lives demanded by their law, before the Peregrine could arrive. The actions of the Leresai were
hotly debated in the New Republic Senate, especially in light of the Caamas Document’s contents. Note that Vision of the Future calls
this race "Leresan.” (SOP, VOF)

Lessev, Kerri
the daughter of Alderaanian diplomats, Kerri grew up on Coruscant. When her parents were rounded up and executed for trumped-up
charges of treason against the Empire, she was "adopted" by Emperor Palpatine, along with the children of the other parents who were
killed. She was placed in the early COMPNOR SAGroup on Coruscant, under the guideance of Crueya Vandron, and eventually
became one of the program's shining starts. Lessev was later recruited into the Imperial Intelligence Destabilization branch, and she
became one of Palpatine's most trusted agents. Her role was to factionalize those Imperial nobles and Moffs who tried to undermine
Palpatine's efforts, thereby forcing them into competition with themsevlves, rather than allowing them to focus their effort on the Empire.
However, just before accepting this role, she viewed some of the Alliance's propaganda and realized the things Mon Mothma and Leia
Organa - a fellow Alderaanian - were saying were true. She realized that her parents' disappearances were more than likely the result
of Imperial paranoia, and decided to help the Alliance from inside the Empire. She used her position as a Major within Destabilization
and manipulated the outcomes of operations in order to benefit the Alliance. It was Kerri Lessev who was responsible for ousting Moff
Varnier and removing a number of Imperial agents from Wyloff Sector. (CRO)

this tree, native to the planet Keed, produced large red seeds that were covered with short spikes. The pods of the lettrani seeds were
quite flexible, and would bounce a great distance when they fell from the tree. For this reason, the Keed used them as balls in the sport
of lettranin. (CRO)
Lettranin
this sport originated on the planet Keedad, and developed from a game played by the Keed. They used the large, red fruits of the

Leviathan of Corbos
this entity was unearthed by the miners who worked to make a living on the desolate world of Corbos. They first found an ancient
skeleton, after blasting away at a particularly hard outcropping of rock. This woke the sleeping Leviathan, and it attacked the mining
colony with a vengeance. The entire colony was wiped out, but not before the leaders managed to send a distress signal to the New
Republic. Leia Organa-Solo asked her brother, Luke Skywalker, to send a contigent of Jedi Knights to investigate. The Levianthan is a
huge, crustacean-like beast that stands on two massive legs. It has four smaller, crab-like arms. Its thick head is studded with several
horns, and its four blood-red eyes sit atop a mouth studded with razor-sharp teeth. Large fin-like plates ran down the creature’s spine. A
first creature was defeated by Kyp Durron, who discovered that the Leviathan could trap the Force-energies of its victims in a special
nodule near its head. Meanwhile, Kirana Ti, Streen, and Dorsk 82 discovered a huge nest of larval Leviathans in the mining colony’s
operations center. The death of the first creature awakened an even larger one, and the four Jedi were pushed to their limits in an effort
to defeat it. The two creatures, once destroyed, released all the souls of the miners they had killed. (ROM, JAL)

Lialic II
this CR-90 corvette was part of the fleet which the Empire maintained in Kathol Sector. Commanded by Captain Rolf Treidum, the Lialic
II helped Moff Sarne control the sector after the Battle of Endor. When Sarne returned to the Kathol Outback, he ordered Treidum to
take the Lialic II and delay the progress of the New Republic ship FarStar, so that Sarne's plans could reach fruition. Treidum renamed
the corvette the Lance of Endor and began raiding Outback colonies in the guise of a New Republic warship, hoping to sway the local
populace against the Republic. The ship was equipped with outdated weaponry and shields, and was taken out of drydock to combat
the New Republic before it could be refitted. Treidum had great success in raiding the worlds of the Outback under the guise of the
Lance of Endor until he was exposed by the crew of the FarStar at Danoor. There, after Makezh managed to get a message to the

Lianna
1) an industrial world located in the Allied Tion sector of the galaxy, Lianna has been under the rule of outside forces for much of its
history. It was originally conquered by the Tion warlords, then was controlled by the Kingdom of Barseg as the Old Republic brought
peace to the galaxy. The Senate basically ignored Lianna, though, and it continued to be ruled as a traditional territory. Some three
centuries before the Battle of Yavin, the Old Republic Senate decided that the planet, under the rule of Barseg, was not being allowed
to flourish. The Senate took control, but the planet continued to be misused as an industrial center. Two hundred years later, Seinar
Technologies established its presence there, but the company was taken over by Kerred Santhe in a hostile maneuver that created
Santhe/Sienar Technologies. Santhe moved the company's headquarters to Lianna. Under the control of Kerred's granddaughter,
Valles Santhe, the planet remained independent, although it was a supporter of the New Order. The Lady Santhe quickly instituted
home rule following the Battle of Endor. The New Republic respected the decision, but surviving Imperial forces launched a series of
reprisal attacks on the planet. The Lady Santhe threatened stop building TIE Fighters if the attacks didn't stop. The threat, plus some
well-placed bribes, allowed Lianna to remain neutral by special charter of the Empire. Lianna has 1 moon, a day which lasts 22
standard hours, and a year which encompasses 370 local days. (DESB, ML)

Licha In
this Gree world was one of the first to suffer from the degeneration of Gree society, several millennia before the Battle of Yavin. In the
most ancient days of Gree civilization, Licha In was a nexus for hypergate transportation and the terminus for most of the farthest-
reaching hypergates. The native Gree of the planet, as they became more reliant on technology, separated into small city-states that
competed for supremacy based on their ability to control their technology. Rulers of the city-states fought wars for food, slaves, and
devices, and have isolated themselves from the rest of Gree society. Most modern Gree consider their Lichan relatives to be backward
and ignorant, and the primary examples of what happened when the Gree lost the ability to create new technology. A temperate world
of large islands, Licha In rotates on its axis once every 24 standard hours. Its year lasts 364 local days. (SWJ8)

RM)
Liekas Tendo
this Morath mining engineer was captured by the Yevetha during the Yevethan Purge and forced to record a plea for amnesty. The plea
was used during the New Republic's blockade of Doornik-319. Part of Eri Palle's plan, several such perjured recordings were used to
keep Republic starfighter pilots from firing on Yevethan warships, on the off-chance that they might actually kill innocent bystanders.
The plan worked, as there were no prisoners on board the Yevethan ships, which pummelled the Republic's forces. (SOL)

Life Crystal
the chief export of the Rafa System, the life crystal is a gem which has starnge and wonderful properties. It has the ability to alter a
human's normal life expectancy, sometimes multiplying it fourfold. A life crystal can also affect the holders dreams, and has been
known to cure certain mental conditions. They are grown only on 11 planets and a few asteroids, all of which have environments which
duplicate that of the Rafa System where the crystals originated. T. Lund Phuna wears a small life crystal around his neck. The true
purpose of the life crystals was revealed when Lando Calrissian, Vuffi Raa, and Mohs discovered the Mindharp. When they learned of
the incredible ruse maintained by the Sharu race, they learned that the life crystals were really a device used by the Sharu to collect the
intelligence and knowledge from all subsequent generations of Sharu, keeping them effectively hidden from the threat they perceived
so many eons ago. The life crystals drained the energy from the Sharu as well, adding to the image of a simple, old Toka and
maintaining the Sharu deception. The reason life crystals don't have the same effect on off-worlders is that the life crystals are too far
from the Sharu computer banks. Without the close linkage, the life crystal absorbs the intelligence and life energy from those near the
crystal's holder, channeling it into the holder. (LCM)
Life Day
a Wookiee holiday. (RD)

the tree which is grown to harvest life crystals, life trees resemble hexagonal posts. The thick boles appear to be fibrous, glassy,
pigmented trunks growing from 2-12 meters tall, depending on the growing conditions. They grow atop a wide disk; the underside of the
disk is covered with the thin, kilometer-long root systems which grow straight down into the soil and keep the tree upright. The branches
of the tree are made from the same crystal-like material as the trunk, and grow straight out from the trunk. The very end of each branch
angles sharply upward, and ends with a single life-crystal. The lower branches are older, and the crystals they produce are larger than
those of the younger, upper branches. They life crystals have to be removed by a laser, and grow back in about a year. (LCM)
Life Witch
a strain of human females who have the power to prolong a male's life by five years, the life witches exist only on the planet Leria
Kerlsil. They announce their heritage by using the title 'Ver' in addition to their surname (as in Karia Ver Seryan). They prefer to call
themselves life bearers, since their powers allow them to extend a male's life by five years, if the male agrees to marry the life witch and
perform the blood kiss. If the male agrees to the blood kiss, the life witch is then indebted to Support the male for five years, giving him
the vitality and strength of a young man. After five years, though the life witch must withdraw the Support or die. She must the recover
her strength before she can marry again. The male is doomed to die either way, for he can no longer survive without the life witch's
Support. All life witches are sterile, incapable of bringing a child into the world. Thus, they are very rare even on Leria Kerlsil,
spontaneously occurring every so often. (AC)

Lifehold, Dannen
this smuggler operated from a base on Dohu VII. Originally born on a Mid-Rim world, he stowed away on a smuggling freighter bound
for Alderaan when he was fourteen. He was discovered by the ship’s owner, Captain Twolz, who agreed to keep Dannen on as long as
he worked for his passage. Twolz treated Dannen like a son, and over a period of five years he taught the boy everything he knew.
Dannen became a marksman and gunner, eventually surpassing even Twolz’s skills. After Twolz was killed on Niian, Dannen and Krell
teamed up for a short time, during which Dannen indebted himself to Linkaas in order to purchase his own ship, the Lifeline. Dannen
worked for eight years to pay off the ship, working with his mechanic, Feq. After Feq’s death at the hands of an over-zealous Imperial
inspection officer, Dannen began to hate the Empire. It was Lifehold who rescued Brion Peck's assault team from Rafft, after a homing
beacon placed on their ship gave them away. (SWJ1)
Lifeline
this was the name of Dannen Lifehold's personal ship, a modified YT-1300 freighter armed with a single, turret-mounted laser cannon.
(SWJ1)
Lifeline Project
developed by Brophar Tofarain and Lofryyhn, this plan used the six Imperial-issue probe droids aboard the corvette FarStar as
communications relays. They could be set in position at intervals within the Kathol Rift, providing a chain of relays to allow the FarStar
to remain in contact with the outside galaxy. Unfortunately, the intense energy generated by the Rift created a great deal of
interference, so it was decided to focus the probe droids on being able to send messages from the FarStar to the outside galaxy. This
left the FarStar without a way to receive communications. (KR)
Lifeline Technologies
this corporation produced a variety of spacesuits for use during extravehicular missions. (FOP)

their sandcrawlers. (SW)
Lift-mine
these repulsorlift-equipped antiship mines float above the ground. They can float at a specific altitude, or can be programmed to travel
within a range. They are not capable of horizontal movement. The Empire used this form of detonation device to blockade important
mountain valley locations. (CFG)

Light Festival
an Ewok celebration which honors the rejuvenation of the Tree of Light. (ECAR)
Light of Reason
this strange ship was Seti Ashgad’s flagship. It was composed of a multitude of smaller ships linked to a central propulsion system. The
ship was designed to break into its constituent parts when it arrived at Nam Chorios. The reason for this was to evade the weapons
emplacements of the Therans, who had programmed their defenses to fire on ships over a certain size and mass. Ashgad used the
ship to meet with Leia Organa-Solo near Nam Chorios, and he also used it to transport weapons and synthdroids from Loronar

Lightfoil
this form of dueling weapon was popular in Tapani Sector. It was modeled after the lightsabers of the Jedi Knights, but was much
smaller and not as powerful or energy-efficient as the Jedi weapon. However, they were just as dangerous. The original lightfoils were
formed after a cache of lightsabers were found in the holding of House Pelagia several years after the Jedi Purge. They became
popular among young nobles, but Emperor Palpatine soon learned of their existence. He sent his Dark Side Adepts to confiscate the
blades, but not before the basic technology was copied and used to create lightfoils. A separate social structure emerged in Tapani
Sector because of the formal rivalries between houses, known as the Saber Rakes. (PGT)

this was Mammon Hoole's personal starship. He used it during his search for Borborygmus Gog and Project Starscream, but was
forced to also use it as transport for his young niece and nephew, Tash and Zak Arranda, following the destruction of Alderaan. The
Lightrunner was damaged when its hyperdrive cut out upon detecting the presence of D'vouran in its vicinity, and Hoole was forced to
land the ship on the unusual planet. When the planet began consuming everything in sight, Hoole and his charges were forced to flee in
the Millennium Falcon with Han Solo and Luke Skywalker. They were dropped on the planet Necropolis, where Hoole eventually
purchased the Shroud. (GOF1, GOF2)
Lightsaber
traditional Jedi weapon, used much like a sword. It consists of cylindrical handle in which sophisticated circuits channel a beam of light
through a series of jewels, which modulate the blade's size and amplitude. It was considered one of the Jedi students' final challenges
to construct their own lightsaber. Many Jedi Masters stressed the lightsaber as a true test of their apprentice's progress, for the the
lightsaber's power is great. A true Jedi Knight only uses the lightsaber for defense, never attack, and there is a great deal of patience
involved with learning this. Some Masters also use the lightsaber as a way to get their apprentices to focus their minds on the Force, for
it takes a great deal of skill to wield one. The mechanics of a lightsaber are simple, although the application of them takes great skill
and concentration. A novice Jedi Knight should be able to create his first lightsaber in about a month. A trained Jedi Master can, in a
hurry, could construct one in a few days. Note that the Star Wars Journal: The Fight for Justice indicates that a Jedi is given his
lightsaber on his first day of training. Every lightsaber contained these basic components: a power cell, a handgrip, an activation plate
or stud, a safety switch, a blade-length adjuster, an emitter matrix, and recharge socket, a lens assembly, at least one focusing crystal,
a power conduit, and an optional belt ring. When activated, internal power cells create photoelectric energy which is focused through
one, two, or three multi-facted crystals. The energy is formed into a tight, parallel beam of coherent packets. These packets are emitted
through a positively-charges, continuous energy lens which projects the packets away from the lightsaber. The packets are almost
immediately attracted back to the lightsaber by a negatively-charged, high-energy flux aperature, and then continually recycled to
create the glowing blade. The packets are recycled by a superconductor back into the power cell for re-energizing. The entire process
is completely contained. No energy is lost, since the light in the blade is recaptured. No heat is generated, either. The only energy loss
occurs when the blade strikes an object. When Obi-Wan Kenobi began teaching Luke Skywalker how to use his father's lightsaber,
Kenobi began by showing Luke the basic body positions used by the Jedi. There were seven attack positions, and four defensive
positions. Each attack or defense position flowed into the next, creating a smooth, continual motion. To perform them all in sequence
takes concentration, skill, and stamina. (SW, SWR, SWSB, TOJ, SE, JLS, TOJC)

Liinade III
this planet, a member world of the Ciutric Hegemony, was an agricultural center known for its caf synthesizers and comlinks. Liinade III
was developed during the last decades of the Old Republic, and its growth continued during the New Order and into the New Republic.
It was targetted for raids by the New Republic, during its hunt for Prince-Admiral Krennel, in an effort to debase his control of the
Hegemony. Corran Horn discovered a laboratory which was designing a new form of Death Star, dubbed Pulsar Station, and the
republic believed the lab was set up by Krennel. In fact, the lab was established by Ysanne Isard, in an effort to undermine the efforts of
Krennel and Isard's clone to break the Republic. After liberating the planet, the New Republic sent several supply convoys to the world.
Krennel attempted to blockade the planet, in hopes of causing more damage to the Republic. (IR)

Lilmit
this cargo hauler was licensed to operate out of Ord Mantell. A small, grey-skinned alien with winglike eyebrows and a ridged forehead,
he owned the Rude Awakening, which he used to transport weapons to the various warring factions on Anobis. He sold to the highest
bidder, but primarily to the miners. He worked for Czethros in this capacity, although he was simply trying to make ends meet for his
own small family. He was intercepted during a run by Han Solo, who had come to Anobis to discover the reasons behind the war. Solo
boarded the Rude Awakening and discovered the nature of Lilmit’s cargo, and planted explosives to destroy it. Lilmit was forced to
jettison the weapons cargo before it exploded inside his ship. Sometime later, Lilmit was given a cargo of spice to transport from
Kessel, although he was still in Czethros’ employ. While docked on Kessel and hoping to escape Czethros’ takeover of the world, he
was detained by Anja Gallandro. As he explained his role in the civil war on Anobis, he told her of the plan Czethros had implemented
to further his own gains. His talking helped harden Anja’s resolve to defeat Czethros, and although he was caught on Kessel, Lilmit
managed to escape safely when the Jedi Knights brought down his plans. Later, Lilmit was recommended to Lando Calrissian by Anja,
for a position as a pilot. (ROM, CCR)

from several hundred kilometers, and it often drove them into feeding frenzies. (TB, TBSB)
LMCTS-24542
this Lant Mining Corporation testing station was located in Brak Sector during the height of the New Order. Despite the fact that the
station produced very little for the corporation, it remained on active duty for many years, earning it the nickname of Futility Station.
After management discovered this monicker, it fired a large portion of the working class. Low-level management soon followed, and
LMCTS-24542 was eventually abandoned. The Alliance eventually took possession of the station and used it for their own base in Brak
Sector. (HAS)

Uxbeg's cargo, destined for Spadda the Hutt on Aikhibba. Along the way, he met Luwingo, and the old smuggler decided to take the big
Yaka along as a partner. However, at a stopover, Uxbeg tried to ambush Lo Khan. That was when Luwingo took a blaster bolt for Lo
Khan, but merely shrugged it off and took out Uxbeg's goons. Lo Khan and Luwingo delivered the cargo, and although they got
shortchanged for hijacking it, the settlement set them both up for life. They "retired" to Nar Shaddaa, but still made small runs with Lo
Khan's starship, the Hyperspace Marauder. (DE1, DESB)
Loac Campaign
this series of battles was eventually won by the Alliance, due in part to the work of Scandium Team and Dutra Zeneta. (SWJ10)
Loag
1) a band of cool, calculating, and lethal mercenaries that was almost wiped out by the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. The survivors
were exiled from the planet Merisee, and remained hidden for decades, awaiting a chance to exact revenge. The name "Loag" comes
from a mixture of the Meri and Teltior words for "warrior." In the wake of their defeat and exile, the natives of Merisee established the
Cult of Those Who Redeem in an effort to guard against the return of the Loag. Those Loag who survived the battle went on a variety of
suicide missions against the Jedi, and it was believed that they eventually died out. However, it was later discovered that a small group
of Loag adherents remained, often workign as intermediaries between the Empire and hired mercenaries. (PG, OE, SWJ14)
2) a city in the planet Merisee. (PG)
Loag Dagger

the Twi’lek at every opportunity. (THG)
Lobel
this unusual creature resembles a large, four-legged frog-dog with a single eye attached on a short stalk. There are unique organs
within the lobel that produce powerful magnetic fields around the creature, and many pilots claim that the presense of a lobel can
significantly alter navigational equipment’s performance. (CCG9)
Lobot
Lobot was born to a slaver, and was learning the trade from his father when they were waylayed by pirates. Lobot was himself taken
into slavery, while the pirates killed his father. Lobot managed to escape the pirates, and made his way to Cloud City. He survived there
by stealing from the wealthier visitors and residents, until he was caught and convicted. The Administrator-Baroness Ellisa Shallence
saw some kind of potential in Lobot, and offered him a choice: a long jail sentence or a lifetime of service to Cloud City. Shallence had
long since realized that only a droid or cyborg could efficiently control the outpost's various operations, and gave Lobot the chance to
become a cyborg computer liaison. Lobot agreed to become Shallence's cyborg, and was fitted with a Biotech Aj^6 cyborg
enhancement. He had a special brain wave enhancer affixed to his head, which increased his intelligence and allowed him to interface
directly with the station's central computer. However, the neural implants required by the wrap-around module eroded the speech
centers on his brain. This resulted in a speech pattern that contained minimal sentences. He worked on Cloud City for fifteen years
before the Old Republic fell, serving out his sentence in dutiful fashion. He was later freed from his service, but chose to remain on
Cloud City, and was named chief administrative aide to the Baron Administrator. He worked with good administrators and bad ones, but
he was especially critical of Raynor, who was incompetent and inept. When Lando Calrissian challenged Raynor to a high-stakes
sabacc match, Lobot secretly aided Calrissian and helped the rogue win the ownership rights to Cloud City. When Lando proved to be a
more than competent administrator, Lobot again threw himself into his work, and even helped manage some of Calrissian's less lawful
endeavors. Following the intervention of Darth Vader and the subsequent loss of the outpost to the Empire, Lobot was left behind on
Cloud City to battle the rebellious Ugnaughts who revolted against Imperial rule. The aliens damaged Lobot's external enhancer, which
modified some of his memories. When Lando returned to Cloud City, Lobot initially thought he was an intruder. Calrissian repaired the
module, and Lobot helped him disarm the bombs placed by the Ugnaughts around the outpost. He later helped Calrissian displace the
Imperial forces on the station, but left Calrissian's service when Zorba the Hutt took control of the outpost. He resurfaced a number of
years later to work with Lando again, on GemDiver Station. Lobot was portrayed by John Hollis in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.

Lomabu III
this plant, the third of six wildly-orbiting worlds in the Lomabu System, was chosen by the Empire as a penal colony. It was located
close to the Imperially-controlled system of Aida. A group of several hundred Wookiees was imprisoned here at the time of the Battle of
Hoth, a fact which Tinian I’att and Chenlambec used to lure Bossk into a trap. The Wookiees on Kashyyyk provided the coordinates of
the planet to them, in order to get Bossk to chase Han Solo there. An oceanic world with several long chains of archipelagic islands,
Lomabu III was chosen for its unusual sandy beaches. The sand is actually a ravenous form of carnivore that swarms around anything
that walks on it, eating away immediately upon contact. The tiny creatures move about by waving tiny flagella, and their motion appears
wave-like. Tinian and Chen were able to rescue the Wookiees imprisoned there by making the local Imperial Governor, Io Desnand,

this planet, located within the Gree Enclave, provides much of the foodstuffs for the Gree worlds. At one time during the vast span of
Gree civilization, Lonatro was covered with huge farms and food production facilities. After the decline of the Gree civilization, nearly
ninety percent of the world was given over to game preserves and botanical gardens. The remaining land still supplies food to the Gree
worlds. The average day on Lonatro lasts 22 standard hours, while its year lasts 340 local days. (SWJ8)
Lonatran Gardens
this Gree bontanical reserve is located on the world of Lonatro, and is home to some of the galaxy’s rarest and most exotic plants. The
Gree maintain the gardens through genetic manipulation, and have preserved several otherwise extinct species over time. (SWJ8)
Lonatran Zoo
this huge biological reserve is maintained by the Gree race on the planet of Lonatro. It take sup huge portions of the planet’s surface,
and is home to many species of land animals which are extinct on other Gree worlds. The curators of the zoo also maintain several
naturally-evolved species of creatures found nowhere else in the Gree Enclave. (SWJ8)
Lonay
this sly, clever, but cowardly Twi'lek was one of Prince Xizor's vigo's, or one of his closest lieutenants. The son of Mogra'daal, Lonay
was a garish dresser, preferring gaudy jewels and fabrics to subtle clothing. He considered himself a member of no Twi'lek clan, having
removed the 'daal' honorific from his name after escaping from slavery. Following Xizor’s death over Coruscant, Lonay attempted to
take control of the vigos and resurrect Black Sun, but he met with a good deal of pessimism in his abilities. (SE, SEE, SESB)

blending in with the walls of the chambers until it could ambush it prey. (GCQ)
Londori
this planet was located near the planet Ganlihk. (COG)
Londrah
this Defel assassin was sometimes employed by Gornt Seron. Londrah was skilled in the execution of targets with high social stature
and rank, using his ability to blend into the shadows to his advantage. He was hired to assassinate Yarr Hinter, a New Republic
ambassador, but the attempt failed. It was believed that Gaen Drommel hired Londrah for the assassination, since it was known that
Londrah had been hired by the Empire during the Galactic Civil War to assassinate Mon Mothma. (WBC)
Lone, Tuatara
this native of Sluis Van was holo-actress who was so cute she was intoxicating. Tuatara was known for playing madcap girls who lived
in strange lifestyles, or inept investigators who managed to fumble her way through a case. Kell Tainer fell in love with her when he was
fifteen, only to find out that she was married and had three children. (WS)
Lone Scout-A
1) a series of scout vessels manufactured by Sienar Ships, these scouts were based off the popular TIE design. The 24-meter ships
were designed for a single pilot, which limited the ship's ability since the pilot was constantly engaged in monitoring ship's functions.
The Lone Scout-A was given minimal shielding and a single, forward-mounted laser cannon. It also had significantly more cargo space
that the standard TIE design. (RPG)
2) this ExcelStar scout vessel is a modified version of the basic Seinar Lone Scout-A. The primary modification was the addition of a
quad-laser turret mounted atop the ship. (GG8)
Lone Scout-A 2
this was the second generation of Seinar Fleet Systems' standard scout ship. Like the Lone Scout-A, it was 24 meters in length and
was armed with a single laser cannon. The LSA-2 featured an improved hyperdrive and a deep-scan sensor array, and had room for
three passengers. Unlike many other Seinar designs, the Lone Scout-A 2 found wide acceptance in the New Republic, primarily in the
New Republic Scout Service. (GG8)
Long, Hokkor
the Secretary in Charge of Scheduling for the Imperial Entertainment Guild during the time when Han Solo was trying to rescue
Chewbacca from Stars' End. He sent a message to Viceprex Hirken that the original entertainment troop would not be arriving at Stars'

the facility. (HSE)
Long Call
this is the name given to the Adarian's use of long-range, subsonic cries. The Long Call has its roots in ancient Adarian mating rituals
and its use as a danger signal. (GG12)
Long Run
this BD-27 Corellian barge driver was owned and operated by Boo Rawl. Rawl has made several modifications to the ship himself,
beefing up the shields and removing passenger space in exchange for space to add a turbolaser housing. The turbolaser can be
retracted into the hull and hidden during normal operation. Boo used the ship to transport cargo for the Alliance, and was often assisted
in those missions by Deen Voorson. (SWJ9)
Long Shot
this modified Lantillian short hauler belonged to Reekeene's Roughnecks. It was originally purchased and modified to be a pleasure
yacht for an Imperial admiral, but the Roughnecks liberated it from a Callonia spaceport. The gang made a number of changes to the
original design, turning it into an almost military transport. The Long Shot can transport up to 85 metric tons of cargo, and the starboard
passenger pod contains a secret smuggling compartment. The ship is armed with a pair of turret-mounted laser cannons placed just
forward of the stabilizers. It was later obtained by the Alliance, and was the ship that was supposed to meet the Celestial as it was
moving Bane Nothos and Grand Moff Ravik to a penal world. The Alliance agents on the Long Shot were pursued by the Star Destroyer
Relentless, but escaped into Otherspace. (RC, SWCP, OS)

Longe Voltrans
manufacturers of hyperdrive engines for starships, Longe Voltrans was active during the last years of the Old Republic. (X1)
Longrunner
this starship held the claim of being the very first Kazellis Light Freighter ever to roll of the production line. It served as Kazellis' primary
demo model, and was upgraded with a Class-1 hyperdrive. When the corporation was nationalized by the Empire, the Longrunner was
then stolen from the yard by Duan Zorn, who used the ship as a trading vessel. When he was unable to pay the port fees on Nigel III,
Zorn was imprisoned on two counts - starship theft and failure to pay his fees - and the Longrunner was auctioned off to Dav Kathis.
Shortly after the sale, Kathis disappeared, and his wife, Leanna Carella, took over the shipping business and ran the Longrunner. (SS)
LongView-382.X
this was a Fabritech long-range sensor array. (HAS)
Longwind
this planet was originally settled by criminals who had been released after serving their sentences in the prisons of the Old Republic,
some 75 years before the Battle of Yavin. The planet emerged as the textile center of Trax Sector, and a thriving agricultural system
also contributed to its economy. The Alliance established its alternate command base on Longwind during the Galactic Civil War.

Lonnag Giba
this older Galacian male was the head of the Council of Ministers when Queen Veda decided to implement a democratic election to
determine her successor. After she asked the Jedi Knights to assist in mediating the elections, Obi-Wan Kenobi discovered that Giba
had been plotting to assume control of Gala for himself. Giba had planned to assume control through Prince Beju, but realized that the
Prince had less popular support than Deca Brun. Since Brun was the obvious favorite to win the elecetion, Giba arranged to have
Offworld Mining Corporation finance Brun's campaign under the guise of Galacian support. After Brun was elected, Giba would then
rule through Brun, who had little political experience. After Qui-Gon Jinn realized that Elan was the true heir to the throne of Gala,
Lonnag Giba attempted to wipe out the Hill People in order to assassinate her. The attempt failed, and Giba was exposed as a traitor to
Gala. He tried to escape by using Obi-Wan's lightsaber, by Qui-Gon Jinn quickly disarmed him. Giba was arrested and removed from
power. (MOC)

intervened and brough the surviving Blood Carvers to Coruscant. (RP)
Loof, Kathos
this man was in charge of the miners who were working in the Graveyard of Alderaan before the Empire moved into the area and drove
them off. Despite his disgruntlement at having the Empire take control of the mining operations, Loof remained staunchly pro-Imperial,
and was decidedly evasive when a team of Alliance agents arrived at Mining Outpost 11 to investigate the rumors of the Royal Palace
of Alderaan inside Asteroid 7785. (GA)
Loof, Trammis
this man was the son of Kathos Loof, and served the Imperial Army during the height of the Galactic Civil War. He was stationed on

operator suddenly finds himself locked onto the reflective particles many ships use as conuntermeasures, and the particles reflect the
tractor beam back to its source. (TTSB)
Loor, Kirtan
a native of Churba, he was an Imperial Intelligence agent working for Ysanne Isard. He resembled a taller, younger Willhuf Tarkin in
nearly every aspect. He was a thin, hawk-faced man with a sharp widow's peak. He has a nearly perfect memory, which he used to his
advantage. He spent some time working with Gil Bastra on Corellia, where Bastra continually got under Loor's skin and kept the agent
off-balance. When Bastra forged IDs for Corran Horn, Iella and Diric Wessiri, and himself, then fled the system to defect to the Alliance,
Kirtan Loor began what would become a life-long quest to hunt them down. Bastra thwarted all of Loor's attempts by leading him down
false trails, using Loor's near-perfect memory to his advantage whenever possible. Loor finally succeeded in capturing Bastra about two
and a half years after the Battle of Endor, but Bastra died during interrogation before divulging any useful data. Loor was then recruited
by Ysanne Isard to hunt down Wedge Antilles and Rogue Squadron. She used the fact that Corran Horn was now in Rogue Squadron
as further incentive. However, deep down, Kirtan Loor was frightened of Corran Horn. He knew that Horn was more violent and driven
to escape than Loor could imagine. Loor knew that, if Corran Horn ever caught up with him, that Horn would shoot first and ask
questions later. When Isard began plotting to return a diseased Coruscant to the New Republic, Kirtan became the go-between for
Isard's secret agent within Rogue Squadron, who was believed to be Tycho Celchu. Using an implanted code phrase, Loor contacted
his agent and obtained vital information on the plan to have the Rogues infiltrate Coruscant to gain information on its defenses. Loor
played his part to perfection, keeping Isard abreast of the Rogues' activities. Isard, however, had more plans for Loor. She knew that
when she turned Coruscant - already infected with the Krytos virus - over to the Republic, she would need an agent on the planet. She
chose Kirtan for this duty, much to his chagrin. He was chosen to head up the Palpatine Counterinsurgency Faction, which he did with
the best of his abilities. When Fliry Vorru was set loose by the Republic to head the Imperial City People's Militia, Loor was caught in
Vorru's web and rendered a subordinate in the plans Isard had for Coruscant. He became fed up with the situation, not to mention the
growing ability of the New Republic to fend off Imperial attacks, and offered himself and a great deal of data to Nawara Ven. Ven was
acting as Celchu's lawyer, in the trial to discover the murderer of Corran Horn. Loor knew that Celchu wasn't responsible, and offered to
provide this information to Ven in exchange for certain freedoms. Ven agreed, and met Iella Wessiri to bring him to the Imperial Justice
Building. However, while exitting the turbolift to the prosecutor's chambers, Loor was shot to death by Diric Wessiri. Wessiri, believing
that the "mystery witness" would be Evir Derricote, waited in ambush and started firing when the doors opened. Ven took a shot in the
hip, and Diric was shot to death by his own wife, who believed him to be an assassin. (XWN, WG, KT)
Loor, Kirtana
this alias was assumed by Dynba Tesc, as part of a daring plan devised by Corran Horn to assist the rebellion on Garqi. Tesc had been
freed by Eamon Yzalli - aslo known as Corran Horn - to round up her friends in the resistance. Then, with an altered appearance, she
would portray Kirtana Loor, and Imperial Intelligence agent who claimed that the Imperial system constantly tried to dismiss the fact that
she was a woman by calling her Kirtan. As Kirtana, she would then liberate the crew of the Star's Delight and bring them all together.
Yzalli told Mosh Barris that he would be able to eliminate the resistance with one simple blow. However, he also made sure that Dynba
and her friends would escape, thereby implicating Barris as a traitor to the Empire for allowing them to escape. (TFE)

simply Lorahn in The Bounty Hunters: Aurra Sing. (TJP, BHAS)
Loran, Garik
this man, a native of Pantolomin, was best known as a child actor who worked in a multitude of Imperial propaganda films. His face
became a symbol for the Empire, and his films were responsible for large jumps in Imperial recruitment. Just as he was trying to get into
more teeen-aged roles, he was captured by Alliance extremists who showed him what the Empire was really all about before they
planned to execute him for aiding the Emperor. An Imperial attack on the rebel outpost resulted in both sides being decimated, and
Garik himself sustained multiple injuries. He hid from the remaining Imperial, and eventually made it back to Pantolomin. His parents
then shipped him to their homeworld of Lorrd, when he recovered from his injuries and decided to join the Alliance. His "death" was
reported shortly before the Battle of Yavin, and broke the hearts of many young girls. Among most of the Alliance personnel, Garik was
known as "The Face" because of the popularity of his cherubic face, although the battle left him with a few scars. He bought his own A-
Wing, and trained in it on his own. He eventually became a pilot with Comet Squadron, but was forced extra-vehicular in order to avoid
a proton torpedo. In his debriefing, Edor Crespin told Loran that he'd never amount to much, and would never repay the debt he owed
the Republic for serving the Empire. Loran snapped back, telling Crespin that he was "just following in his footsteps." Crespin demoted
him from pilot ranks, and Loran thought he'd never fly again until he made the cut to join Wraith Squadron. Loran also served as te
squadron's insertion expert and part-time cook. For his part in rescuing the Night Caller during Apwar Trigit's attack on Talasea, Face
was promoted to Lieutenant. During this time, Face became good friends with Ton Phanan, as the two exchanged quips and developed
a friendly rivalry. Their friendship was crushed when Phanan was shot down and killed over Halmad, despite the incredible effort Face
put in to rescue him. Phanan, in his will, left Face a large sum of money, provided that he have the facial scars removed. If not, the
money went to Loran's arch-nemesis, Tetran Cowall. So, Face had the surgery and retained the money. During this time, Face fell in
love with Dia Passik. In order to infiltrate Warlord Zsinj's confidence, Face then assumed the identity of General Kargin, leader of the
Hawk-bat Independent Space Force. He met several times with Zsinj, each time increasing the Warlord's belief that Kargin was truly
independent. After the defeat of Zsinj at Kuat, Face was promoted to brevet Captain by Wedge, a position was was eventually made
official by the Republic after the Battle of Selaggis. (WS, IF, SOC)
Loran Spitball
this starfighter assault maneuver was designed by Garik Loran and Wraith Squadron. It involved the launching a large number of proton
torpedoes at the unshielded durasteel plating protecting the power cells of an Imperial-class Star Destroyer. Subsequent bombing runs
by starfighters or a supporting capital ship widened the gap in the plating, destroying the power cells. (WS)

underworld connections to establish a base of power. He contracted with the Mantis Syndicate to keep the peace through the
employment of mercenary forces, and invited the Hutts to use the planet in exchange for monetary repayment. He developed a loyal
following among the youth of the planet, and continued to grow in power and support during the early years of the New Republic.

Loro, Elscol
a fiery red-head, Elscol led the resistance on Cilpar following the death of her husband, Throm. Elscol also was the inheritor of
Groznik’s life-debt to Throm, and together they joined the Cilpar resistance following the Battle of Yavin. Elscol continued to work
toward ridding the planet of the Empire after the Battle of Endor. She later received help from Rogue Squadron in driving the Imperials
off the planet. Her abilities as a pilot earned her a position in Rogue Squadron, and she was part of the team sent to Mrlsst to obtain the
Phantom cloaking device. Following Groznik’s death on Rorax Falken’s asteroid lab, Elscol became moody and chafed at Wedge
Antilles’ command. During the battle for Eidolon Base, Elscol single-handedly took out the Victory-class Star Destroyer Harrow, against
Wedge’s orders. The two reached an agreement in which Wedge gave Elscol an honorary discharge, while Elscol received some of the
Eidolon weapons cache for use in building an elite liberation army. She hired Sixtus Quin and his soldiers as par t of her new army, and
developed guerilla techniques used to remove Imperial forces from power during the New Republic’s early years. She worked to remain
just outside the Republic's jurisdiction, and was able to assist Rogue Squadron during the Bacta War by infiltrating Thyferra's ground-
based defenses. As the Battle of Thyferra moved toward becoming a victory for the Rogues, Elscol and Iella Wessiri captured Fliry
Vorru as he tried to escape the destruction. Elscol tried to shoot him, but Iella wanted Vorru to surrender. He agreed, but Elscol shot
him in the throat. However, Iella had set her weapon to stun so that he could be tried of rhis crimes. (XWRS, XWPA, XWBT, BW)

Lorrd
a planet which orbits very near to its sun, and it therefore subjected to large amounts of solar radiation. It's human inhabitants have
adapted to this harsh environment over the generations, developing extremely dark skin and eyes. The planet was bombed form orbit
and enslaved by warrios from nearby Argazda, during the Kanz Disorders. (HSR, CSA)
Lorrdian
the human inhabitants of Lorrd, the Lorrdians were subjugated by the Argazdans during the Kanz Disorders. They were forbidden to
speak, sing, or use other vocal communication while enslaved, and so they developed a complex form of sign language which employs
not only the hands, but the face as well. They became adept mimics, and even after being liberated by the Jedi Knights and an Old
Republic task force, they continued to use the non-verbal communication. Their mimicry earned them jobs in a number of entertainment
positions. (HSR, AE)
Lorrir
this Imperial Colonel threw in his lot with Prince-Admiral Krennel, after Krennel defected from Imperial service after the Battle of Endor.
st
Lorrir served as a Lieutenant as part of the 181 Imperial Fighter Group which was garrisoned at Brentaal IV, shortly before it was taken
by the New Republic. Later, Lorrir was re-assigned to a post on the Reckoning, and was assigned to train Krennel's fighter pilots. Lorrir
was a supporter of Lon Isoto, and firmly believed that Soontir Fel had betrayed the Empire at Brentaal instead of Isoto. Lorrir himself
was a mediocre pilot, as demonstrated when Antar Roat's Requiem Squadron trained with Lorri's forces prior to Krennel's planned
assault on Coruscant. Lorrir was placed in command of the Requiem ships, which were ordered to fly on his orders. When Krennel
sounded a battle alarm, Roat - who was actually Wedge Antilles, and was on Ciutric to bring down the planet's shields to allow the New
Republic to defeat the Prince-Admiral - knocked Lorrir cold and took his uniform. This allowed him to delay the launch of Requiem's
fighters, giving them a chance to avoid the major battle while trying to knock out the planet's defenses. Lorrir was tapped by the clone of
Ysanne Isard to pilot a shuttle away from Ciutric, in an effort make Rogue Squadron believe she was in it. Mimicking the scheme the
real Isard used to escape Thyferra, the clone sent relayed communications through the shuttle's comm systems while Lorrir fled the
planet. However, Wedge recognized Lorrir's tendency to side-slip his ship to avoid being hit by enemy fire and destroyed the shuttle.
Lorrir was killed when it plowed into the Daplona River and disintegrated. (IR)
Lorrir, Kandise
this woman was Colonel Lorrir's wife. She was a typical Imperial wife, worried more about appearances and social politics than the
world around her. (IR)

Loruss
this Chief Technician was the manager of the IG-88 development project at Holowan Laboratories. An ugly, bald-shaven woman with
large gaps between her teeth, Loruss had tinted lenses implanted into her eye-sockets to assist her failing vision. She admitted to
Imperial Supervisor Gurdun that the schedules imposed by the Empire for the IG-88 project didn’t leave them much time to test the
prototypes. She was the second person killed in the labs when IG-88 suddenyl gained sentience, when the droid reflected her laser
blast back at her. (TBH)
Losca
this Alliance Lieutenant was a supply officer who had to restock the Alliance bases after the losses at Derra IV. She was on a tight
schedule to get the Hoth base supplied, and normal supply chains were ignoring her requests because of recent Imperial victories over
the Alliance. She decided to create a droid to help her locate supplies as a commodities broker. She took a standard M-3PO droid and
modified its programming, adding a brokering chip and some scrounging subroutines. She buried the routines under code-phrase
activation, so that only a precise series of vocal commands would activate them. This M-3PO droid was later known as Emtrey, and
made its was to Rogue Squadron following the Battle of Endor. Losca, however, perished in the Battle of Hoth. (WG)
Losron, Kinakt
this man was a former employee of Kiharaphor Engineering, but was drafted into the Empire when Mof Sarne started working with the
DarkStryder device. However, Losron was unable to determine how the device worked. Sarne declared him incompetent and sent him
to the Q'Maere detention facility. While in the prison, he befriended Lowen Chase and was an integral part of the planning of the riots
which freed the prisoners. Once aboard the FarStar with Chase, Losron became instrumental in leading the mutiny which swept the
ship. Losron and Corla Unser took control of Engineering, but were unable to secure the ship because of its cobbled-together state.

Lossor
a large sea creature native to Varn. (HSR)
Lost Hope
this decrepit freighter was used by Corran Horn to infiltrate the planet Garqi, in order avoid being detected by the Yuuzhan Vong who
controlled the planet. The ship was barely spaceworthy, but that only served to deepen the illusion of the ship's destruction in the
atmosphere over Garqi. Corran and his team flew the Lost Hope to Garqi, then sent out an SOS before detonating the ship. Within its
holds, Corran had stowed a small shuttle, the Best Chance, in which he and his Noghri guard rode until the Lost Hope exploded. The
shuttle then drifted down to the surface of Garqi. (DTR)
Lost Ones
a gang of misfits and bullies living under the cities of Coruscant, the Lost Ones were one of Zekk's rivals for freedom underground. The
Lost Ones painted grafitti to mark their territory, and their symbol - a cross inside a triangle - was the primary marking. When Zekk was
kidnapped by Tamith Kai, his incredible sensitivity to the Force prompted Kai and the leaders of the Shadow Academy to return to

but were stunned before they could help. (LO)
Lost Promise
this song, written and played by the band Deeply Religious, was banned by the Imperial Board of Culture. It first appeared on the
compilation Emperor of Air and Darkness. (GG9)
Lost Reef
this DeepWater-class light freighter was purchased by the antiquities dealer Saell-Terae, who used it to map out vast areas of the
Unknown Regions. Saell-Terae replaced the Mon Calamari life support systems with a non-aquatic environment, and upgraded the
ship's defenses and weapons. The single laser turret was replaced with a quad-laser turret, and four torpedo launchers were concealed
in the bow. Saell-Terae even replaced the stock sensors with a military-grade package. In the end, however, Saell-Terae was believed
to have run afoul of Admiral Thrawn, when the Admiral was trying to obtain rare statues produced by an alien civilization. He was forced
to abandon the Lost Reef in order to make off with the statues, and he spent much of his life trying to find the ship again. The Lost Reef
was eventually found near Elrood. (SS)
Lost Voices
this song, written and played by the band Red Shift Limit, was banned by the Imperial Board of Culture. It first appeared on the

Loswilla
this snow-white, fluffy humanoid vamp was a frequent passenger on the Kuari Princess. She hung around Xerrol's Place, looking for
short romances during each cruise. (RM)
Lot 452
this fortified compound, located on the planet Ukio, served as the base of operations for the ThunderForce mercenary unit during the
Galactic Civil War. It was located in a rural area, well away from the nearest city, which had been controlled by crimelord Granz Niiliisi.
The local government requested that the ThunderForce unit remove Niiliisi from power, and turned a blind eye to their activities after
Niiliisi was exiled. (HAS)
Lota
this Aramandi akia was known for its conservative approach to life. It was not uncommon for members of the Lota clan to debate for
hours on end, ensuring that they were fully informed of all aspects of a situation before making a decision. (AE)
Lotas
this Rodian bounty hunter was working for an Imperial admiral, when the admiral offered him the opportunity to have a variety of
cybernetic implants placed in his body instead of being paid in hard credits. Never one to overlook a chance to gain an advantage over
his competition, Lotas agreed to be implanted, even though the admiral was doing it to help further several corporations in which he
held stock. Over time, much of Lotas’ physical body was replaced with mechanical parts, and he came to detest the “frailties of the
flesh.” Lotas eventually went to work for Ploovo Two-for-One, serving as part of his Protocol Team, where he became friends with HN-
TR1 and EV-4D9. (AIR)
Loth
this planet is the native world of the primordial rubygrub cyst, which is an organocrystalline lifeform. (GG2)
Lotide
much of this planet was covered with swamps, which helped keep the Imperial installation on the planet away from prying eyes. On
Lotide, the Empire established a weapons research and development lab. (BI)
Lotiramine
this substance is often used by crimelords to keep their subordinates from revealing too much information if arrested or captured. By
itself, lotiramine is harmless. However, when it interacts with certain interrogation drugs, such as skirtopanol, the combination induces
chemical amnesia. If too much of one or the other is taken or administered, the prisoner can die of the chemical interaction, which can
take the form of severe convulsions or internal hemorraging. (XWN, KT)
Loto, Aimi
this woman was one of the Alliance's most unusual saboteurs, in that she worked exclusively with droids and avoided human contact
whenever possible. Many felt that she avoided human contact after her mother, M'lay Loto, suddenly disappeared. Aimi wore her black
hair long and braided, as a way to maintain a connection to her mother. Aimi worked with an dorid assistant known as Blockhead. The
droid's identification was MdZ-BLK, and he joined Aimi of his own free will. Together, they worked in an area only a short time in order
to avoid capture, but their efforts were highly efficient. Aimi, who wore a black-plated blast helmet to hide her appearance, strongly
believed that droids should have rights like any other being. This belief was maintained despite the fact that she used droids as her
personal saboteurs, programming them to operate for up a year in Imperial labor pools before they malfunctioned. These malfunctions
often resulted in destroyed computer records or incredible explosions. (CRO)
Loto, M'lay
this strong-willed woman was Aimi Loto's mother. Her sudden disappearance caused Aimi to retract from human contact. (CRO)
Lott, Arndall
a native of Kwenn and an Imperial General, Lott created his own private empire following the Battle of Endor. He joined the Imperial
Army immediately after graduating from the Academy, and served under the command of General Veers before being promoted to
General and taking command of Walker Operations and Tactics training on Jardeen IV. He was given credit for developing the first
automated Imperial war machines, after he successfully slaved together several AT-AT walkers and placed them under the control of a
single pilot. His theories and designs were later used on the TIE/D automated fighter. After the Battle of Endor, Lott left Jardeen IV and
joined forces with Captain Iolan Gendarr. (DESB, WBC)
Lott Dod
this Neimoidian was the Trade Federation’s primary representative in the Old Republic’s Galactic Senate. During the time when the
Federation protested the taxation of trade routes by blockading the planet of Naboo, Lott Dod maintained his position that the blockade
was a perfectly legal response to the Republic’s actions. However, when Queen Amidala of Naboo petitioned for a vote of no-
confidence in Chancellor Valorum’s ability to control the Republic, it was Lott Dod who opposed an immediate vote. He was overruled
by a popular majority. Lott Dod was acted by Silas Carson, and his voice was provided by Toby Longworth in Star Wars: Episode I –
The Phantom Menace. (SW1, TPM, IS1, IG1)
Loudhailer

Love Is Waiting
a holofeature Sonniod brings to Han Solo on Kamar. The film offends the Kamarian Badlanders who were used to watching Varn,

opinion of himself, and was thoroughly obnoxious when he learned that Lara had been assigned to Atton Repness' training group. (IF)
Lowbacca
a Wookiee, and Chewbacca's nephew. Lowie, as his friends call him, is somewhat gifted with the Force, and is allowed to enroll in Luke
Skywalker's Jedi Academy on Yavin 4. He is a ginger-colored Wookiee, with a unique streak of black fur that runs around his chest and
down his back. His anger was discovered by Tamith Kai when she had to kidnap him to get to the Solo twins. She continually goaded
Lowie at the Shadow Academy, trying to lead him down the path to the Dark Side. Lowie was eventually captured, but was rescued
before he could be turned to the Dark Side. Lowie returned to Yavin 4, and created his own lightsaber of molten bronze light. Later, he
returned to Kashyyyk to attend his sister, Sirrakuk, in her rite of passage to adulthood. There, following an attack by the Shadow
Academy, Lowie rescued Sirra as she battled the Nightsister Vonnda Ra in the depths of Kashyyk’s jungle. He managed to save Sirra
before a syren plant consumed her. When the Diversity Alliance grew to power, Lowbacca was taken captive, along with his sister and
Lusa. They were eventually rescued by the Solo children, and testified against the Diversity Alliance on Coruscant. Following the death
of Chewbacca at Sernipdal, Lowbacca and his cousin, Lumpawaroo, were chosen to continue serving out the life-debt to Han Solo and
his family. Han, still grieving the loss of Chewbacca, asked them to wait until he had reconciled Chewie's death before taking over for
him. (HTF, SA, DK, TEP, HT)
Lowick
this mountainous planet was the homeworld of the Pa'lowick race. An equatorial region provided coastal marshed in which the
Pa'lowick hunted. (AE)
Lowickan Firegems
the mining, sale, and distribution of these precious minerals was monopolized by the Empire, following the blockade of the Pa’Lowick
System. They were known to be found in only one place: the Lowick Asteroid Belt, near the planet Kessel. How or why these unusual
gems form is unknown, but they are usually deep red in color and seem to glow from within. The molecular structure of the firegem
vibrates constantly, creating a heat source that makes the gems feel warm to the touch. Criminal and terrorist organizations discovered
that the vibration of the firegem has an adverse reaction when placed near a hyperdrive reactor, causing the reactor to explode when
the ship enters hyperspace. For this reason, they were outlawed during the Old Republic as well as the New Order. (TB, AE, TBSB)

Lrashtash
native to the planet Usean II, this large herbivore was known for the huge teeth it possessed. Many xenobiologists hypothesized that
the incisors which scissored in front of its mouth were merely a bluff, evolved over time to scare away potential predators. The incisors
swiveled on temporomandibular joints, but could not open wide enough to be a real threat. Wilek Nereus collected a set of these
unusual teeth, claiming that they came from the “Useani camnzin.” (TBSB)

Lucan, Trask
this starship captain found himself stranded on Glova during the early years of the New Republic, when his ship, Lucan's Nightmare,
was impounded by the Drepplin starport authorities. Trask was a native of Hyder, and learned to fly a starship from his father. After his
father was executed by Imperial forces for being a suspected smuggler, Trask turned his loyalties to the Alliance and, later, the New
Republic. Trask later learned that he had been set up by Tegist Byrg, who wanted to capture his ship. (POC)
Lucan's Nightmare
this modified Arden Industries Model 47 freighter was owned and operated by Trask Lucan. It was armed with a pair of laser cannons.

Lucazec
this is the homeworld of the Fallanassi. It was invaded by the Empire, which hoped to turn the Fallanassi to its own uses. The
Fallanassi resisted long enough to escape off-planet, but left behind hidden messages for its children, who had been in schools on
other worlds. The Empire left a small garrison there, hoping to capture a returning Fallanassi and make them read the messages. The
garrison remained there after the Battle of Endor, oblivious to the change in government. It agents nearly captured Akanah, but they
were cut down by Luke Skywalker. (BTS)
Lucern, Cradjius
once the owner of Marqo's cantina, in D'larah on Demophon, Lucern took control of Marqo's when the former owners fled the planet
prior to the explosion of its sun. Lucern turned the restaurant into a frontier cantina, complete with gambling. These games of chance
attracted new business, as people tried to get rich quick before leaving the planet. Lucern provides a small percentage of his take to the

Lucky Bantha
this freighter stopped on Trilos, then went to Atraken in search of salvage. The owners were credit-pinching cheapskates who
purchased the least expensive spacesuits they could. Consequently, the suits leaked in the radiation from the planet's surface. The
salvage they collected was also hot with gamma rays, and all the crew was killed shortly after leaving Atraken. The Bantha still orbits
the planet. (PG2)
Lucky Day
a Galactic Electronics YT-1300 transport used to evacuate supplies and data from the company's Pondut research platform during the

Lucky Despot
a cargo hauling ship that flew one too many times without getting regular maintenance. It crashed on Tatooine, in Mos Eisley, and was
abandonded. It was later converted into a hotel and casino by a group of Arconan investors who thought Tatooine would develop a
huge tourist business. When the Arconans went bankrupt, the Lady Valarian took over the casino and hotel. She tried to escape
Jabba the Hutt's prying eyes and run her own business, but Jabba managed to secure a percentage of the Lucky Despot's profits. After
Jabba's death, Valarian worked to free herself from Jabba's entanglements and run the Despot as she always wanted to. (GG7, TME,

Lucone, Gydio
this loan shark agreed to finance Elga Arbo's courier operation, for a substantial fee. When she couldn't make the payments, Lucone
demanded that she turn over her ship, the Redshift Runner, or be jailed for defaulting on the loan. Arbo told Lucone that there was no
deal, and a struggle ensued. In the aftermath, Arbo was severely wounded, and her co-pilot, Maceb Joodsen, had made off with the
Redshift Runner. Over the years, Lucone funded several bounty hunters and mercenaries to recover Joodsen and the Redshift Runner,
but none were ever successful. (SS)

Ludo Kressh
this ancient Sith magician was Naga Sadow’s contemporary rival for the position of Dark Lord of the Sith. It was Kressh who was
chosen to lead Marka Ragnos’ funeral procession. Kressh’s faction believed in maintaining the status quo within the Sith Empire, rather
than attempting to expand it, as Naga Sadow thought. Their opposing viewpoints led to a skirmish at Ragnos’ funeral. The ghost of
Markos Ragnos foretold of the impending downfall of the Sith Empire, should the two continue to struggle. Neither heeded the former
Dark Lord’s words, and a civil war erupted within the Sith Empire. Ludo Kressh believed that Jori and Gav Daragon were advanced
scouts for an Old Republic war force coming to eradicate the Sith, a position which gathers some support among the Sith lords. As
Sadow took control of the Empire, Kressh rallied his supporters in an attempt to overthrow Sadow. They fled to Ziost to plan their
attack. A timely discovery of the treachery with which Sadow took control of the Empire led to further support, until Kressh was ready to
launch an attack on Sadow’s base on Khar Delba. However, Naga Sadow’s real base of power was on Khar Shian, and Ludo Kressh’s
forces were drawn into a battle against an undefeatable foe. Kressh was believed to have been killed over Khar Delba, where Naga
Sadow’s fleet destroyed Kressh’s forces. However, he managed to survive, and returned to the Sith Empire to take over as Dark Lord.
Sadow would have none of this, and began his own assault on Coruscant. The inner strife between the rivals grew until it erupted into
the Great Hyperspace War. Kressh and Sadow drew their starfleets into the Sith Empire and fought valiantly against each other. In the
end, though, Sadow was able to use the Dark Side of the Force to coerece one of his own starship captains to ram Kressh’s flagship,
destroying the ship and killing Kressh in the explosion. (GAS, FOSE)
Ludos
native to the planet Ganlihk, this creature has been trapped and sold as pets for many years. They possess a trilling form of
communication which has been said to be soothing to humans and humanoids, and they are naturally bioluminescent. These two traits
made it a desireable companion. In the wild, a ludos will feed on fish and fruit in the morning before climbing into the treetops to bask in
the sun. These small creatures average about 50 centimeters in diameter, and resemble knobby balls with several thick tentacles
studded with suckers. They were known as “backpack companions” to travelers and hikers on Ganlihk, since they enjoyed the
companionship of other beings, and their bioluminescense provided the travelers with a way to stay in sight of one another. (COG)

Luies, Renea
this native of Shesharile 5 learned the ways of graft and corruption early in his career. He started working as a starport officer in the
Shesharile System, working his was up to the position of Captain of the Port. He was loyal only to himself, and cared little for the Old
Republic or the Empire. He commanded the respect of his underlings, and ruled with a iron fist and a tight bankroll. He also created a
dense network of informants who keep him apprised of illegal cargoes. He first collects the standard fees and penalties, then negotiates
for an additional percentage to get the inspection crew to take an early lunch break while the smuggler manages to escape. If the
spacer is foolish enough to refuse the offer, Luies has never hesitated to throw them in jail or deport them. He kept his own record
clean, and when confronted with breeches of protocol he claimed that it was all part of an elaborate sting operation. (SWJ9)

Lume Rock
this unusual form of rock gives off light and heat, but is not hot enough to burn flesh. The B'omarr monks used to line walkways with

Lumiya
when the Imperial operative Shira Elan Colla Brie was trained in the ways of the Dark Side of the Force by Darth Vader, she shed her
old name and became the Dark Jedi Lumiya. Lumiya's weapon of choice was not the lightsaber, though, but a new weapon known as
the lightwhip. She discovered the lightwhip while searching through an ancient Sith tome during the Battle of Endor. Following the death
of the Empire, Lumiya tried to defeat the New Republic with the help of the alien race known as the Nagai. She also tried to use their
enemies, the Tofs, in a similar effort. Each time, she was defeated and left for dead, but her incredible strength and cunning allowed her
to escape and survive. She was a force that skirted the New Republic, striking when it pleases her against remote locations. She had
control of a small fleet of warships, and was supported by a contingent of crimson-armored stormtroopers. (SWG)
Lummus

Lumpawarrump
Chewbacca's son, his name is often shortened to just Lumpy. He was a large Wookiee, like his father, but was reserved because he
was raised by his mother and grandfather. When Chewbacca finally was given the time to return to Kashyyyk - several years after the
formation of the New Republic - he worked with Lumpy to ready the child for the Test of Ascension. The Test was interrupted when
Chewie learned that Han Solo had been captured by the Yevetha. Chewbacca left to rescue him, along with Lumpy, Shoran, Dryanta,
and Shoran. When Shoran was shot during the initial firefight, Lumpawarump took his place. He himself took a blaster bolt while
rescuing Solo, but he continued the effort without complaining. The young Wookiee’s heroic efforts during the rescue earned him the
baldrick of adulthood. He adopted the adult name of Lumpawaroo after passing the Test of Ascension. (WSB, TT)
Lumpawaroo
this is the name chosen by Chewbacca’s son Lumpawarump, after the youth passed his Test of Ascension during the rescue of Han
Solo. The familiar part of the name, Waroo, means “son of courage.” Following the death of Chewbacca at Sernipdal, Lumpawaroo and
his cousin, Lowbacca, were chosen to continue serving out the life-debt to Han Solo and his family. Han, still grieving the loss of
Chewbacca, asked them to wait until he had reconciled Chewie's death before taking over for him. (TT)

Lunatic
this was the name given to the remote-controlled machine created by Cubber Daine, Kell Tainer, Voort saBinring, and Eurrsk Thri'ag
while they were part of Wraith Squadron. The Lunatic was created to provide a distraction for the Wraiths to escape from Xobome 6,
shortly after Apwar Trigit attacked Folor. The Lunatic was built from a smuggling compartment, to which the Wraiths attached an R2
unit, a power gnerator, and a laser cannon. It was designed to resemble floating debris, while masking the presence of the pilot inside.
Roughly the size of a large coffin, the Lunatic also was "piloted" by Voort saBinring, who volunteered to fly it because his fat-covered
body would protect him from the cold, since the Lunatic would not have much in the way of life support. The Lunatic would be left adrift
in space near Xobome 6, to be discovered by Trigit and the Implacable, but was instead caught by one of Trigit's CR90 corvettes, the
Night Caller. Voort managed to infiltrate the ship's bridge and subdue its crew, capturing the ship for the New Republic. (WS)

Lunkar An
this male Rellarin was a member of the Summit Class of the Galactic Outdoor Survival School, which held every record at the

records of Summit Class rankled Lunkar An to no end, and his ego was severely damaged. He left his position as owner of the Jmin
Survival Academy and returned to GOSS to redeem himself, and hoped to challenge each and very surviving member of Twilight Class
to a personal duel. Lunkar An hated Sisquoc, but absolutely abhored Ma'w'shiye, and hoped one day to reclaim his place in the GOSS
recordbooks. Note that Galaxy Guide 12 claims Lunkar An was a survival instructor for the Alliance, during the Galactic Civil War.

Lurians
native to the planet Lur, these creatures have adapted themselves to Lur's harsh, wintery climate. They were small bipedal herbivores
covered in thick white fur. The bottoms of their feet are covered in a thick, calloused pad, enabling them to travel on ice and snow. Their
large green-blue eyes are adapted to seeing in the snowy wastes. They have a very advanced technology, and have developed some
sophisiticated genetic manipulation techniques. This is the reason that slavers often try to obtain specimens of the Lurians, for illegal
biomolecular operations. It is rumored that they could bring almost 6,000 credits apiece on the Invisible Market. (HSR)

assistants, by the Diversity Alliance and held on Ryloth. She was rescued by Jaina and Jacen Solo, and testified against the Diversity
Alliance on Coruscant. (CS, TEP)
Lusankya
this planet was supposedly the site of an Imperial prisoner reconditioning facility used by Ysanne Isard. It was later revealed, after the
New Republic liberated Coruscant, that Lusankya was simply a prison facility built into the carcass of the Super-class Star Destroyer
Lusankya, which was buried beneath Imperial City. The prisoner barracks, interrogation facilities, and office spaces were located within
the Star Destroyer, while a mining operation was established in the crust of the planet. It was here that Isard interrogated and tortured
her prisoners, all the while conditioning them to react to certain code phrases. When she was satisfied that the prisoners were ready to
be released, she removed any memories of their captivity except for the fact that they were at Lusankya. Then, when the prisoners later
heard the code phrase, they began mumbling about "Lusankya" before becoming living time bombs and causing great amounts of
damage, usually to New Republic locations. If a prisoner could not be turned to her conditioning, they were consigned to the mines,
breaking big rocks into smaller rocks for months and years on end. This was deisgned to break any non-cooperative subjects until they
might be trainable in the future. The mines were constructed with a gravity-inversion field in place to disorient the miners. The entire
complex was located near the Galactic Museum. (XWN, WG, KT)
Lusankya
this Super-class Star Destroyer, built at Kuat Drive Yards under the name Executor, was hidden by Emperor Palpatine in a drydock
located beneath Imperial City on Coruscant. A series of huge, hexagonal lift cells held the ship ready for deployment. The razing of vast
areas of Coruscant's surface, the ship's construction, and its subsequent burial with additional levels of cityscape, had to be masked
from the populace by the Emperor Palpatine and the use of the Dark Side of the Force. It was completed just before the Battle of Endor.
The first person the Emperor let onto the ship was Ysanne Isard, and she loved the ship from that point on. Much of the ship's internal
systems were given special override commands which allowed only Isard to gain access to them. After Palpatine's death at Endor,
Isard used it to house the prisoners of war still held by the Empire, including Jan Dodonna, Tycho Celchu, and Corran Horn. When the
Krytos virus was defeated and Tycho Celchu was found innocent of Corran Horn's death, Isard decided that it was time to leave. She
used the Lusankya's turbolasers to destroy the city above it, then lifted free of its lift cells. It then punished the planetary shields and
escaped from Coruscant, fleeing to Thyferra. The Lusankya was then placed under the command of Joak Drysso, who tried to destroy
the space station used by Rogue Squadron near Yag'Dhul. He barely escaped, and returned to Thyferra. The Lusankya was then
placed between the planet and the Rogues' forces as the Battle of Thyferra ensued. However, the surprise of having the Avarice - now
under New Republic flags but still commanded by Sair Yonka- and the Virulence - now commanded by Booster Terrik - start shooting at
the larger ship left the Lusankya badly damaged. Drysso threatened to ram the dying ship into the planet Thyferra, but he was shot by
one of his Lieutenants. The Lieutenant, Waroen, surrendered to Wedge Antilles and the crew was allowed to defect or leave Imperial
service. Wedge, the de facto Captain of the huge ship, took the opportunity to marry Corran Horn and Mirax Terrik aboard the
Lusankya, preventing any resistance from Booster Terrik, Mirax's father. The remains of the ship were moved around to several
Republic shipyards until it was finally placed in drydock at Bilbringi, once those shipyards were converted after the death of Grand
Admiral Thrawn. Despite the core wipe of the ship's computer system, many of the coded accesses placed by Ysanne Isard remained.
It was nearly completed when Ysanne Isard herself reappeared, hoping to take control of the ship for her own ends. Booster, Mirax, and
Iella Wessiri were able to discover Isard's motives, and had a full force of armed soldiers waiting for her when she arrived. Isard was
killed in a struggle with Iella, and the Lusankya remained in the hands of the New Republic. Several secret chambers were discovered
during her refit, and they were modified by New Republic engineers to serve as biocontainment areas. Thus, the Lusankya became less
of a warship and more of a research vessel. Wedge Antilles was eventually given command of the ship for a special task for he
commanded, but he retained his position within Starfighter Command. Wedge commanded the huge ship in the defense of the planet
Phaeda against Commander Vivant and the Steadfast. (KT, BW, IR, SOA, CE)

training simulation runs, during which Lara was continually trying to cause problems in order to gain the attention of Atton Repness. (IF)
Lusubrin T'shkali
this Nagai warrior was known as Brin, although little else was known about him. He first appeared on an amateur night at The Broken
Tusk, where he signed up to fight in the Dool Arena. He quickly demonstrated a style of fighting unseen in that part of the galaxy,
employing straight-forward tactics that overcame the underhanded strategies of his opponents. A handsome figure with silver sigils
tattooed on his neck and a royal violet crest tattooed around his left eye, Brin became a favorite with female patrons. (WSV)
Lute-pipe
this is a musical instrument that it alternately strummed and blown. (THG)
Lutrillian
this was a race of humanoids whose large faces were dominated by wide-set eyes and fuzzy jowls. They had small ears and a wide,
flat nose. (CCG5)
Luudrian Lockjaw
this was a species of creature known for its ferocious tenacity. (WSV)
Luudrian Star
this was the name of Tru’eb Cholakk’s freighter. It was a modified Ghtroc 720 freighter, and was purchased by Tru'eb with the credits
Platt Okeefe paid him following their escape from Big Quince. It was armed with a pair of mass drive cannons. (SWJ8, CRO)
Luwingo
a Yaka cyborg, he found work as a programmer on his homeworld. When he took his family on a planetary tour, they were attacked by
pirates. They pirates stole his children, and Luwingo tried to track them down. However, travel throughout the galaxy often requires the
use of a starship. When he first met Lo Khan, he tried to save Lo Khan's life by eliminating the goons tracking him. In return, Luwingo
felt that Lo Khan would owe him passage on his starship. Though Luwingo eliminated one set of goons before they got to Lo Khan,
Spadda had sent another group. Luwingo again saved Lo Khan, and the two have been partners ever since. In between infrequent
smuggling runs, Luwingo has continued to search for his family, using his cyborg brain to selectively recall memories of the abduction.
(DE1, DESB)
Lux
this modified seeker droid was the primary security force used by Doctor Lytos Urtell to protect The Glow Dome, on Adarlon. A former
police droid, Lux was reprogrammed by Doctor Urtell to monitor the clientele for potential troublemakers. Doctor Urtell created Lux
because the droid’s body resembled one of the many floating holoprojectors used to create light shows within the Glow Dome. This
allowed Lux to operate without any of the patrons realizing it was close by. Lux was programmed to be a tough, no-nonsense enforcer,
and was armed with a MSD-32 disrupter and a Persuader stun gun. (WSV)
Luxior 7
a planet. (XWA)
LuxurPort Zisparanza
this Ubrikkian luxury landspeeder was archetypical of such vehicles. It measured 11.2 meters in length, and had space for up to eight
passengers. Its interior was almost absurd in its appointments, including scarlet greel wood wall panelling and chrome accents. (CSA)
Luxury 3000

Luxury-class Shuttle
one of several transportation ships used by Tinta Lines. It has several cabins denoted by price, such as the Premier cabin. (IJ)
Luyal
this tentacled alien race joined the New Republic. (TNR)
Luzitall
this obstacle is often found at the end of a swoopchasing rce course, and is the spectator favorite because it involves water. The
Luzitall is formed into a deep, water-filled ravine, and the zig-zagging, hairpin turns are labeled with repulsor buoys. All along the
course, nozzles and jets force tons of water outward as the racers pass through the ravine, often unseating riders before they could
react. In addition, turbines are used to churn the surface of the water, which forced racers to continually adjust their ride height. (BSS)
LV3
a series of slow-processor droids. (TJP)
Lwhekk
this hot, jungle-covered planet was the home world of the Ssi-ruuk, and is the center of the Ssi-ruuvi Imperium. The jungles of Lwhekk
were broken by spired cities which appeared to be quite fragile against the jungle. The average day on Lwhekk lasted 32 standard
hours, and its years encompassed 344 locak days. (TB, TBSB)
Lwyll
this was the name given by Roa to his hand-built, one-man fighter. A modified Redthorn-class scoutship, it saw duty during the Battle of
Nar Shaddaa. Roa, seeing the Peacekeeper could not bring its engine on-line, began peppering the dying ship with laser fire from the
Lwyll. When the larger ship impacted the planetary shield protecting Nar Shaddaa, the Lwyll was caught in the back-blast and propelled
toward the moon’s surface. Roa barely managed to keep the ship under control as it plummeted into the ground, and escaped from the
ship shortly before it exploded. (THG)
LX-1
one of MerrSonn Munitions' laser-flechette mines. They are recognizable by the concave external surface of the mine emplacement,
which absorbs the energy when the mine explodes. When detonated, the mines release huge amounts of energy which is absorbed by
the concave surface and expelled by small laser diodes as tiny blaster bolts. (IJ)
LX-2
one of MerrSonn's first self-detonating mines, these weapons used special sensors to determine the proximity of a target, and then
trigger their detonators. These weapons were disarmable via commlink hook-up. They were thought to be secure, but members of the
Alliance on Calonica discovered their disarming codes and rendered them harmless. They then stole the charges and replaced the
mines. (ISB)
LX-4
MerrSonn's self-detonating perimeter mine, these proton weapons were buried a half-meter below the surface. Thermal
gravity-sensitive sensors tell the weapon when a large vehicle or person is near, and triggers the detonator. The LX-4 is a refitted
proton torpedo warhead, and make up for the LX-2's failings by being impossible to disarm. This causes problems for the Empire as
well, since they cannot be stored easily. (ISB)
LX-80
this was an anti-infantry missile emplacement produced by MerrSonn during the Galactic Civil War. (HAS)
LXC-3TF
this assassin droid worked with Jasta Finn during the early years of the New Republic. LXC-3TF was armed with a portable proton
torpedo launcher and a blaster cannon. (POC)
Lyaer’tsa
this is the name of the traditional Twi’leki weapon used in armed combat. It is a tall, staff-like shaft with a vibroblade at the top. Tradition
demands that the lyaer’tsa be used to inflict non-lethal injuries. (XWBT)
Lybeya System
located in the Bajic Sector, the Lybeya System was the location of the Vergesso Asteroid field. Ororo Transportation had a hidden
shipyard there. When Xizor was trying to punish Ororo for infiltrating Black Sun's spice trade, Xizor provided the location of the
shipyards to Darth Vader, telling the Dark Lord that the location was an Alliance shipyard. Vader destroyed the shipyard. (SE)
Lycoming
this quarantine enforcement cruiser patrolled the Meridian Sector for the New Republic, after Seti Ashgad and Dzym unleashed the
Death Seed plague. It intercepted the freighter Zicreex, which was transporting R2-D2, C-3PO, and Yarbolk Yemm to Cybloc XII. The
captain of the Zicreex, a Gamorrean named Ugmush, had stopped to try and salvage the exploded hulk of the Empyrean when the
Lycoming arrived on the scene. The Lycoming’s captain - a Gotal female - had received a distress call from the Empyrean and was
investigating. (POT)
Lydenn Carridon
this Seikoshan crimelord was one of Janelle Serap's chief rivals during the early years of the New Republic. (POC)
Lyjan, Ariss
this man served the Empire as the Moff of Nuiri Sector during the height of the Galactic Civil War. He was notorious for his love of
gambling, which often got him into financial as well as political trouble. He was lucky enough to be considered a friend of Grand Moff
Tarkin, and so he enjoyed a modicum of favor with the Emperor. (WSV)
Lyll, Darak
this Alderaanian was part of that planet’s minimal underground. He was known among the criminal element to be a source for spice and
other substances. Darak was a tall, elderly man with graying hair and a growing paunch. A young Han Solo once tried to unload some
stolen glitterstim to Darak, but the man declined on the grounds that it was extremely hard to sell it on Alderaan. (TPS)
Lyn
1) a small city located on the planet Zelos II, on the eastern coast of Galleros. (PG2)
2) this man was one of Imperial Lord Dixton's personal secretaries. (SWCP)
Lyn Me
this voluptuous Twi'lek female was one of Jabba the Hutt's favorite dancers, often performing with Rhystaal and Greeata and the Max
Rebo Band. She was from a head clan on Ryloth that once hired Boba Fett to protect them from slavers, and she eventually fell in love
with the bounty hunter. Among her earliest memories is that of Boba Fett rescuing a group of Twi'leki children after the slavers set fire
to their school. From that point on, Lyn Me scoured the newsnets for information on Boba Fett, and was actually something of an
authority on the bounty hunter's career. She used her skills as a Twi'lek dancer to get off Rodia, and was eventually approached by
Max Rebo to join the small group of dancers that accompanied his band. Her luck reached its highest when the Max Rebo Band was
contracted to play at Jabba's palace shortly after Boba Fett accepted a position working for Jabba. She longed to see the bounty
hunter, and only got a brief chance before Luke Skywalker arrived to rescue Han Solo and Leia Organa. In the wake of Jabba's death,
and the disappearance of Boba Fett into the Sarlacc Pit, Lyn Me and Greeata barely managed to save the band. After the death of
Jabba, Lyn Me vowed to exact revenge on Han Solo and Luke Skywalker. (RJSE, CCG9, MTSE)
Lynaria
this Outer Rim world is the seventh planet in the Atrig System. It is a frigid world covered with ice and frozen methane, and has no
moons. (PG2)
Lynch
an Imperial Grand Moff who controlled the section of the galaxy containing M'haeli, Lynch and Ranulf Trommer's father were friends.
This association, followed by the heroism of Ranulf at Aguarl 3, caused Lynch to post Ranulf on M'haeli, ostensibly to be Governor
Grigor's aide, but also to keep tabs on the Governor's doings. (ROC)
Lynnori
this near-human female was the Captain and owner of the Starbound Misfit, a modified YT-1930 transport purchased for her by
Talandro Starlyte and modified by his friend, Scizzic. Starlyte asked her to leave the life of an independent captain and stay with him on
Starlyte Station, but she politely refused. Unlike most near-humans, Lynnori’s species was unusual in that it barely resembled base
human stock. Her features were feline, with pointed ears, clawed hands, and a down covering of striped fur. (WSV)
Lyra
a sentient, aline race. (TSK)
Lyrd
a city found on the western coast of Galleros, on the planet Zelos II. (PG2)
Lyric
this Melodie, native to Yavin 8, was discovered to be strong in the Force by Luke Skywalker and Tionne. She was brought the Jedi
praxeum on Yavin 4 about a year before her changing ceremony. She was befriended by Anakin Solo and Tahiri, but began to fail
physically as her natural metamorphosis started. She was accompanied back to Yavin 8 by Anakin and Tahiri, who attended her
changing ceremony within the Sistra Mountain. (LW)
Lytos Urtell
this Sullustan researcher was at one time employed by SoroSuub, but the circumstances of his leaving were never clear. Doctor Urtell
was perhaps best-known for the creation of SenseLights and the incredibly complex collection of holoprojectors which created fantastic
light shows within the Glow Dome on Adarlon. He also had created a form of personal holoprojector, a device which allowed the user to
alter their appearance via holographic projection. The prototype was tested by Corinna A'Daasha, Doctor Urtell's boss, and worked
quite well. However, rumors spread of its existence, and a variety of unsavory suitors tried to obtain the technology. He hoped to be
able to sell it to the highest bidder, but had to perfect a way to mass-produce it before the deisgn was complete. (WSV)
Lyunesi
an alien race, the Lyunesi were one of six sentient species which evolved on the planet Ryoone. A fragile species, the Lyunesi would
have been wiped out by their more adaptable competitors if not for their innate ability to translate languages. In the skirmishes and
eventual peace negotiations that followed, the rival species employed Lyunesi translators to hammer out the details in an unbiased
manner. Those Lyunesi who traveled away from Ryoone were often employed as translators and negotiators, acting as go-betweens
for the galaxy’s many unusual races. From time to time, Lyunesi fall victim to their own fragility and sensitivity, plunging to hypererotic
relationships with other beings. More often than not, the object of the Lyunesi’s desire is killed by the intense passion developed in the
relationship. This often caused problems for those Lyunesi acting as interpretors for high-ranking officials, whose wives or daughters
were sometimes the object of the Lyunesi’s passion. (MA)
Lyyr Zatoq
this female Quarren joined the New Republic's Rogue Squadron shortly before the Battle of Bilbringi. She was killed during the attempt
to gather data on the moon Distna. Ysanne Isard's clone had learned of the New Republic's attempt to locate Pulsar Station, and used
the information in her bid to eliminate Rogue Squadron. She dispatched Prince-Admiral Krennel's forces to Corvis Minor Five, where
they ambushed the reconnaissance team. (IR)
L1V-IN
this IN-series information droid worked at the passenger spacepirt on Kuat during the Galactic Civil War. L1N-IN was also an Alliance
operative, and was programmed to provide vital information to field agents who used the correct pass-phrase and whose voice-patterns
were recognized by the droid. L1V-IN's role to the Alliance was revealed to the Empire by Vewin, who was forced to reveal it during
intense interrogation. (SESB)
L19a Freighter
this was a special, luxury edition of the Surronian L19 heavy freighter. (SS)
L9-G8
one of a short-lived series of luxury droids created to serve rich and famous individuals, this culinary automaton was presented to the
Alliance by the Squibs, as a symbol of their good faith during the search for the Elusive. In reality, the Squibs couldn’t wait to get rid of
the droid, which was the most annoying mechanical individual they had ever encountered. The droid simply wanted to find a master
who could enjoy fine cuisine. (SH)
*M*
M-class Starship
a passenger liner (HSR)
M-g2
Seinar Fleet System's General-Purpose Warhead Launching system, used on the TIE Advanced. (TIE)
M-HYD
this pretentious hydroponics droid was owned by the Lars family. It speaks a number of computer languages, but prefers to converse in
binary. Its main use was to communicate with loadlifters and vaporators. (CCG2)
M-s3
Seinar Fleet System's Concussion Missile Launching system, used on the TIE Bomber. (SCRE)
M-TD
this is a small, face-shaped, miniature translation droid built by C-3PO and Chewbacca to help Chewie's nephew, Lowbacca,
communicate with the students and instructors at Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy on Yavin 4. When Lowie was kidnapped by Tamith
Kai, she had Em Teedee reprogrammed to spout Imperial doctrine whenever he talked with Lowie. The little droid was quickly repaired
by Jaina Solo and Lowie upon his return to the Jedi Academy, and given the ability to communicate in six unique langauges. As the
other student on Yavin 4 learned more and more of the Wookiee language, M-TD’s primary function became less important. However,
with the help of other students, he obtained new programming and learned new ways to be of assistance. M-TD proved useful in
starship navigation and repair, as well as communications and remote slicing. (HTF, SA, DK, SHA)
M-Well
this design of Gravitech navigational detection system was used on many Mon Calamari luxury ships. (RM)
M-12
this was the designation of a class of Imperial sweep bombs manufactured for use by Kuat Drive Yards. The M-12 was a notoriously
poor performer in the field, with a failure rate of nearly ten percent. This meant that most Imperial unit demanded a better model, and
much of the production run of M-12 bombs was scrapped. They were eventually replaced by devices which had gravity-wave systems
built into their casings. However, some twelve million M-12 bombs were never shipped to the Imperial Navy. They were retained by
Kuat Drive Yards for testing the armory chambers of their starships. (MA)
M-3PO
1) a protocol droid that once worked with Roark Garnet. He belonged to Jarsten at the time. (RPG)
2) M-3PO, or Emtrey to the pilots of Rogue Squadron, was a protocol and regulations droid working for the New Republic Navy. He was
assigned to Rogue Squadron at the same time Tycho Celchu was named XO, more to keep an eye on Celchu than to provide input on
military protocol. (XWN)
M-3PO-C
this protocol droid was assigned to the hyperbaride plant on Marca by Dynamic Synergetics, Incorporation, at the time the plant was
first opened. M-3PO-C was loyal to Arviz Linden, having been assigned as Linden's personal secretary, and admired Linden for
keeping the plant's production at a minimum in order to protect the native Sekct. The droid was somewhat distraught upon learning of
his death. After the take-over of the planet by Vost Tyne and the Empire, M-3PO-C was relegated to managing the pool of
housekeeping droids at the plant. When a team of Alliance agents crashed on Marca and decided to help the native Sekct, M-3PO-C
gladly gave them any assistance they needed while within the plant. (POM)
M-317
this was the sensor designation of the Stellar Web, used by the New Republic forces which tried to destroy Warlord Zsinj near Vahaba.
Han Solo had made a deal with Admiral Rogriss, who commanded the Stellar Web, but any indication of the Stellar Web's true
allegiance were kept secret by the designation. (SOC)
M-4D0
this protocol droid served as a porter droid aboard the Star of Empire. It preferred to be called Fourdee. After the ship was taken over
by the Systems Integration Manager program, many of the droids began acting strangely. Gardening droids attacked the passengers
and crew who remained on the ship, and M-4D0 used a blaster to shatter a transparisteel viewport. The droid was sucked out instantly,
along with a great deal of the ship's atmosphere. (GOF10)
M-5
this is the designation of a Balmorran repeating blaster cannon. They were used primarily by Imperial stormtroopers. (SWJ9)
m’Bal, Kyloria

this smuggler was an acquaintence of Han Solo and Dash Rendar. Katya was one of the few smugglers who got paid for their part in
the Battle of Ylesia. (RD)
M'challa Order
this group of beings was known as scholars within the Empire. Han Solo, Lando Calrissian, and Lobot posed as members of this order
in an effort to gain a copy of the Caamas Document from the data-library on Bastion. (VOF)
M’dweshuu
this ancient star is located in the center of the Si'Klaata Cluster. It suddenly exploded at some point many millenia before the Third
Battle of Vontor, causing great changes on nearby planets. (GG12)
M'dweshuu Nova
the remnants of the M'dweshuu star, it was discovered by Nikto scientists some time before the Third Battle of Vontor. It hurls great
amounts of radiation into the nearby space, creating many uninhabitable worlds and altering life on others. Among the worlds altered by
the Nova was Kintan, and produced the five races of Nikto. The impact of the Nova and the radiation it produced gave rise to the Cult of
M'dweshuu. (GG12)
M’Guy, Rass
Kaj Nedmak owed money to this loan shark, who worked out of a base on the planet Ord Mantell. He was a huge man, but he was not
a brute. He carried himself with a certain air of confidence, and moved with a style most crimelords could only hope for. Kaj tried to pay
off a gambling debt he owed Rass by double-crossing Bwahl and using weapons the Hutt had contracted them to ship to Tammuz-an
as payment to Rass. Rass took the weapons, but only as a payment of the interest Kaj owed him. After Kaj and Celia Durasha left Ord
Mantell, Bwahl discovered his duplicity, and sent his agents out to capture or kill him. (SWJ14)
M'haeli
this planet has an agrarian economy. It is the homeworld of humans and the H'drachi. M'haeli has several natural satellites. It was a
convenient refueling point for traffic into and out of nearby systems, and as such was assimilated by the Empire. (ROC)
M'iiyoum
a plant native to H'nemthe, the m'iiyoum's white floweres only bloom in the season of trine, when all three of the planet's moons provide
nighttime illumination. This earned the m'iiyoum the nickname nightlily. The plant is carnivorous, using its sweet nectar to attract rodents
and other small creatures. (TME)
M'iiyoum Onith
a native of H'nemthe, M'iiyoum was trying to board the Tellivar Lady in Mos Eisley but could not pay her passage tax. She appealed to
Feltipern Trevagg, who falls in love with her. When she and Feltipern consummated his false love for her at the Mos Eisley Inn, she
gutted him as all H'nemthean females do to their mates. (TME)
M’kae
this Imperial Navy warrant officer served as the signal officer aboard the Avenger, during the last years of the New Order. He was
responsible for testing and coordinating tractor beam operations, as well as relaying the ship’s activities and fleet orders to the Captain.
(CCG4)
M'kim
this young Thranta Rider was training to join one of the foremost troupes on Cloud City, about the time Lando Calrissian and Cojahn
were creating SkyCenter Galleria. When Jacen Solo, Tenel Ka, and Lowbacca were ambushed and Jacen fell from the bottom of Cloud
City, M'kim had been out practicing his riding skills and rescued Jacen. M'kim had been out with his troupe when Czethros murdered
Cojahn. (TCC)
M'lar'Nkai'Kambric
a musician who performed during the Galactic Civil War. (TME)
M'Nista
this man was Baron D'Asta's majordomo. He introduced the Baron to Mirith Sinn and Kir Kanos, when they returned from Grappa the
Hutt's stronghold with the real Feena D'Asta. (CE2)
M'sheto'su'Nikto
one of the five Nikto races, they are commonly known as the Mountain Nikto. (GG12)
M'shinni
this strange race of humanoids is characterized by their outer coating of plant material. They are often referred to as Mossies. The
M'shinni people (an individual in called a M'shinn) are skilled botanists and traders, and live in close-knit families. The M'shinni plant-like
skin covers all but the palms of their hands and the soles of their feet. It ranges in color from pale yellows through vibrant greens to dark
emeralds, depending on the type of star they live near. The plant covering begins to wither when natural sunlight is not available, and
will die completely after ten sunless days. This plant material lives in a symbiotic relationships with the M'shinni flesh, feeding upon
sweat and dead skin cells while supplying nutrients and moisture. M'shinni give birth is done by cloning cells of the female's body. This
parthenogenic reproduction has instilled a strong sense of family ties in the M'shinni, who show an unassailable allegiance to their own
familial Rootline. The M'shinni evolved on the planet Genassa, but have spread throughout the galaxy with the discovery of the
hyperdrive. They have long been members of the Old Republic, providing their unique terraforming practices to the Republic in return
for technologies they do not possess. They tried to remain neutral during the Galactic Civil War, dealing with the Empire at arm's length
while secretly aiding the Alliance. (GG12)
M'shinni Sector
this area of the galaxy is located along the Celanon Spur. (GG12)
m'Yalfor'ac Order
this was one of the continental armies of the Bitthaevrian military, which was rumored to have defeated the Jedi Knights in battle shortly
before the advent of the New Order. Based on the l’Quar’ta continent of the Bitthaevrian homeworld of Guiteica, the Order was sworn to
eliminate two groups: Force-sensitives and Bothans. The m’Yalfor’ac detested the way in which Bothans avoided direct conflict, a triat
which angered and frightened them because the Botthaevrians couldn’t comprehend Bothan ways. The Order was led by five beings:
Colonel Quaal Tavier Catharius and his four subordinates. At the height of the Galactic Civil War, the Order numbered more than
10,000 fanatically loyal soldiers, all but two of which were Bitthaevrians,and represented more than eighty percent of the Guiteica
Militia. With the advent of the New Order, the m’Yalfor’ac Order saw the Empire as the lesser of two evils, since anything was better
than the Old Republic. (AIR)
M’yet Luure
this Exodeenian Senator to the New Republic was a powerful leader who spoke openly with Leia Organa-Solo at all times. Their
friendship had grown with the Republic, and when former Imperial supporters became elected Senators, Luure countered Leia’s distrust
by reminding her that she herself once served Emperor Palpatine. The senior Exodeenian Senator at the time, Luure was killed when
Dolph’s sabotaged droids exploded during a Senate meeting. (TNR)
Ma-allesh
this was a Twi'leki phrase which translated roughly into Basic as, "Travel safely." (SESB)

Mac
this man, who claimed to be from an out-of-the-way planet about three hours from Coruscant, was the chief technician for the Happy
Blasters. While he was generally calm under fire, he was also xenophobic, and participated in the extermination of the Fyyrsprus
species. The only reason for his actions was that the Fyyrsprus botched several repairs on the Starcat, and Mac wanted to make them
pay for their mistakes. (SWJ13)

Macus Kayniph
this near-human ran the Black Sun operation on Smarck, during the early years of the New Republic. He resembled an overweight
human male, but had scaled, tan skin and a series of five bony ridges along the top of his skull. He had arranged to kidnap Feena
D'Asta and keep her drugged and in custody, while a clone of Feena was created and placed on the Imperial Interim Ruling Council.
Grappa the Hutt kept her drugged with a regular dose of gree spice, and paid Macus to engineer more clones. However, Macus
discovered that Grappa was making partial payments. Macus required a full payment in order to produce the clones Grappa needed to
infiltrate the Imperial Interim Ruling Council. He confronted Grappa, who assured him that the debt would be paid. In the meantime,
Macus told Grappa that Kenix Kil was really Kir Kanos. When the Zanzibar failed to locate Kil, Grappa had one of them shot. Macus
objected, and Grappa shot him as well. He kept Macus' body frozen, in order to fool the other members of Black Sun into believing
Macus was still alive. In order to preserve his secret, Grappa had all the other guests who witnessed the shooting killed as well. The

Madine, Crix
a Corellian General with the Alliance, his strict military background was formed during years of service to the Imperial Academy and the
Empire. He took pride in the fact that, regardless of other Imperial squadrons' tactics, his team never took unneessary liberties during a
a battle. However, when he began to see that his personal tactics were never going to be accepted, he tried to accept the Empire's
ways himself. When this failed, he erased all Imperial records of himself and sought out the Alliance. He made contact with his old
friend, Carlist Rieekan, who put in some good words for him. When the Alliance accepted Madine, his Imperial training made him the
logical choice to plan the assault on the second Death Star. There are rumors that the true reasons behind his defection deal with the
receipt of a set of highly-criminal orders from Emperor Palpatine himself. They so assaulted his sensibilities that he lef the Empire. After
Endor, he turned down a seat in the New Republic's Inner Council, preferring to remain with the Republic's growing military. He became
the Republic's commander of Special Forces, drawing together a crack team of commandos who were prepared to enter any situation
for the sake of the Republic. Not many of his accomplishments are known, due to their often secret nature. The one mission that was
lauded by the New Republic, unfortunately, was also his last. He had taken a small team to infiltrate the Hoth asteroid field and
determine the status of Durga the Hutt's Death Star revision, the Darksaber. A series of mishaps left Madine alone; Korenn had died
entering the asteroid field, and Trandia died giving Madine a hope for escape. Madine chose not to escape, and was captured by
Durga's alien guards. Durga, pleased with himself for hatching the Darksaber plot and capturing Madine, executed Madine with a
blaster bolt through the heart. General Madine was portrayed by Dermot Crowley in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. (ROTJ, DFR, DESB,

have medicinal value. (BSS)
Maduro, Roland
this mercenary provided information to the Empire on Alliance bases in the Minos Cluster, following the Alliance attack on the
Nebulon-B frigate, the Warlord. (WEG)
Maelstrom
this unusual area of space, located near the Relgim Sector, is dominated by a huge, nebula-like cloud of charged space dust and raw
energy. This combination of attributes scrambles most sensor systems, hinders communications, and confuses hyperdrives and
navigational computers. Thus, most shpis must revert from hyperspace to realspace in order to traverse the Maelstrom. This has led to
a rise in piracy near the Maelstrom, since the ships come out of hyperspace with very little warning of what lies near the cloud. (RM)
Maendin, Lar
this native of Vastrip IV was a scout who served the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. He personally located several planets that
were later used as bases and safeworlds. However, following the Battle of Endor, Maendin defected from the Alliance and began
working as an independent operative. He was known to have sold the locations of Alliance and New Republic bases to the Empire, and
all of them have had to be evacuated before Imperial forces destroyed them. He also has been known to scout out remote planets for
use by the remnants of the Empire. (WBC)

a popular spectator sport. (RD)
Mag-6 Injector
this fuel injector was used on pod racers. (RAC)
Maga
this Dantari was the garoo of the tribe which befriended Hoole and the Arranda children, during their flight from the Empire. He held no
compassion for them, however, after the Dantari began to notice Tash's small command of the Force and Hoole's ability to change his
appearance. Maga eventually reconciled their differences, recognizing that they were no threat to his authority. This was all in an effort
to gain their confidence and lure them to the Jedi ruins near the Dantari camp. He urged Tash to enter the ruins, hoping she would
disappear and he could regain his tribe's confidence. However, a false clone of Tash attacked the camp while Maga was away, and he
was forced to reveal his deception to the real Tash. Maga then went to find his people while Tash searched for her uncle and brother.
(GOF11)
Magagran
this planet was held by the Empire during the last years of the New Order. Major Tierce was stationed on Magagran during the Battle of
Endor, and thus survived the death of Palpatine. When Tierce learned of the Emperor’s death, he jumped ship to return to Coruscant
and assess the damage. (SOP)

Magg
Magg was born in the Corporate Sector, and grew up learning how to straddle the fence on every issue. This allowed Magg to watch for
potential gains before making a jump to one side or the other. Growing up surrounded by the corruption of the Corporate Sector
Authority, Magg believed that cutting corners and taking bribes was business as usual. When he was hired as a duty agent by the
Authority, he performed his work indutiful fashion, all the while looking for ways to make a quicker credit. His associates labelled him as
shady, and the adjective wasn't that far off. Magg began living a double life within his Authority career, ostensibly serving as Fiolla's
assistant during the time when she was trying to expose a slavery ring in the Corporate Sector. This was how he met up with Zlarb,
after apprehending him in a sting. Magg offered Zlabr freedom for a cut of the action, and the second of his two lives was born. Magg
used his Authority contacts to provide information to Zlarb. To complete the illusion, Magg tipped Fiolla off to Zlarb's arrival at Bonadan,
but only because he was, in reality, working for the Corporate Sector Authority and its slavery ring, and thought that he could eliminate
her and Han Solo together by luring them on a swoop chase. He was assisting Zlarb on Lur, and so was identified by Han Solo. He was
thought to be the slaver's accountant and security manager. He was a short man with black hair, and had a number of talents which
made him useful to both Fiolla and the Corporate Sector Authority, including locksmithing and weapons training. (HSR, CSA)

Magister
this was the title given to the leader of the Ferroan colonists who settled the planet Zonama Sekot. It was the Magister's job to ensure
the safety and relative anonymity of the planet above all other things. Before Sekot took the planet into hyperspace, there had been two
Magisters. The first Magister was a Jedi Knight who accompanied the settlers to Zonama Sekot. The Jedi, a small, wiry man, had
followed the religion of the Potentium, and had been driven out of the Order for his beliefs. He developed an intense relationship with
Sekot, and established the practices of creating wondrous technologies with the help of Sekot. The next Magister was a hologram of
the original, developed to ensure some form of continuity in the leadership with Sekot. The ruse was discovered by Anakin Skywalker
and Jabitha, who found the original Magister's body buried in the rubble under Far Distance's mountain location during their flight from
Ke Daiv. The illusion was furthered by the addition of holographic representations of the Magister's children. The exact name of the
original Magister was considered sacred, and the Zonamans were forbidden to speak it aloud. Obi-Wan Kenobi later learned that the
Magister was Leor Hal. (RP)

Magrody, Elizie
Nasdra's wife. (COJ)
Magrody, Nasdra
founder of the Magrody Institute, Nasdra was one of the galaxy's premier expert on droids and automata. He had a close relationship
with Bail Organa and Mon Mothma, until he was sought out by Moff Tarkin to teach at the Omwat orbital program. He was very
enthusiastic when Qwi Xux survived the program and joined the team of scientists at the Maw Installation. Magrody was later tapped,
along with Xux, by Tarkin and the Emperor when the first Death Star was being designed. His work in trying to create Force-sensitive
machines was heightened by the fact that Nasdra was somewhat Force-sensitive himself, a secret he nearly managed to keep quiet.
When Roganda Ismaren began to plot how best to recover the Eye of Palpatine, she realized that Magrody's Force-sensitive automata
would be best-suited for the job. She kidnapped his wife and child, forcing him to develop a special brain implant for her son, Irek.
Magrody worked diligently with Irek, creating an incredibly intelligent mind that could manipulate inorganic machines with the Force.
When he tried to get word fo this to the New Republic, Roganda arranged for him to conveniently disappear. Roganda realized two
benefits from his disappearance. It kept her plot secret, and it cast doubt on Leia Organa Solo's position as Chief of State for the New
Republic, for rumors quickly spread that she had used her position to eliminate Magrody for his involvement with Palpatine. (COJ)
Magrody, Shenna
Nasdra's daughter. (COJ)
Magsol
a drug used by the Ssi-ruuk to help attune a human brain to their entechment chairs. Essentially a solution of magentic particles,
magsol was injected into the subject’s body and was absorbed by the nervous system. When energized by an external magnetic field,
the magsol helped force the subject’s life-energy out of their body and into a catchment arc for storage. (TB, TBSB)
Magus
this creature was native to the equatorial deserts of Reopi, where it fed on small rodents, insects, and reptiles. It resembled a large frog,
measuring almost 60 centimeters in length when fully extended. Their feet are webbed, giving them excellent traction in the shifting
sands of the desert. These feet also help them burrow into the sand to avoid the intense heat of the day. Their hides are incredibly
tough, and magus were hunted for their skins, which were used to make a durable material sold on certain planets. When threatened,
the magus exudes a noxious poil through pores on its skin. (COG)
Magwit, Bellina

Magwit, Wim
known as the Magician, this humanoid dwarf was a travelling mystic whose primary act involved the mass disappearance of his family,
props, and himself through a hoop. The hoop was something he designed himself; it was a short-range matter transmitter that moved
whatever he put into it a small distance away, usually off-stage. He was Bar-Kooda's personal entertainer until he escaped from the
pirate. However, Bar-Kooda put an Imperial warrant out for his arrest, and Boba Fett caught him. Luckily for Magwit, Fett had just
committed to finding Bar-Kooda, and Fett offered Magwit his freedom in return for locating Bar-Kooda. Magwit agreed, and Fet
eventually used the magic hoop to trick Bar-Kooda. (BF)

Mah Dala Infirmary
this was the finest hospital and research center in the sector, and was located in the city of Mah Dala, on Gobindi. It was brought to
prominence through the efforts of the former Imperial scientist Kavafi, and was under Imperial control for much of the Galactic Civil War.
The Empire used its proximity to the huge ziggurats built by the ancient Gobindi to perform secret experiments on biological weapons,
inserting a Shi'ido agent in place of Kavafi during the development of the Gobindi Virus. (GOF3)

Mairans have been long-time rivals with their neighbors, the Vergills. The battles escalated about nineteen years after the Battle of
Endor, when the Vergills opened a ditanium mine near the Mairan consulate on Hapes. The Mairans claimed the Vergills were
disrupting their ability to run the consolate, but it was later discovered that the Mairans purposely located their consulate near the
richest ditanium mines in an effort to spark a confrontation. (L)

Maj-Odo-Nomor
this young Cerean male was one of the multitude who demanded the elders of their planet allow the import of technology. He was
swept up in the fiery speeches of Bron and Silais, and felt that the lack of technology on Cerea kept the planet at a primitive, backwater
level. When Ki-Adi-Mundi tried to match Bron in a debate, Maj grabbed hold of his lightsaber and activated it. To Maj, it was simply a
new and interesting piece of technology. However, when he turned it on, he accidentally speared another youth and killed him.
Although Ki was accused of the murder, Maj fled with his cadre of friends to the Outsider Citadels to escape any possible legal actions.
There, he was befriended by Bron and Ephant Mon, who hoped to use the boy and his struggle to legalize their import of technology to
Cerea. Maj was dating Sylvn at the time, but in the wake of the deaths of his friends Kordren and Skeel, Maj started to fall in love with
Twin. This angered Sylvn, and turned her resolve back toward her father’s words. Meanwhile, to protect his “investment,” Ephant Mon
took Maj, Twin, and Sylvn to Tatooine for safe keeping. They stowed away on a transport ship, but were sharing the ship with divvik
pupae. The pupae hatched into adults, threatening them all until Ki arrived to rescue them. When Ephant Mon threatened to blow the
escape pod out unless Ki acted to free them at the cost of his own life, Maj rebelled and tried to break free of Mon’s control. The Chevin
pulled a hidden blaster out and shot Maj in the chest, killing instantly. (PTR)

Majjvara
this was the name of the monarch or ruler of the Yvarema people. The Majjvara was similar to the queen of an insectoid hive mind, and
served the same purpose to the Yvarema. She was the source of their intelligence, but was dependent on the working classes for
sustenance and new information. Unlike the rest of Yvarema society, which is largely humanoid in stature, the Majjvara is a huge,
wormlike creature with ten vestigial limbs. She was positioned within a hovering throne that allowed her support her immense bulk, and
surrounding this throne was a ring of incubation tubes in which Yvarema fetuses were growing. The Majjvara was connected to the
tubes by a network of cables and wiring, allowing her to monitor the development of her young. The ancient Majjvara had to give birth
normally, but modern Majjvara had their eggs placed in the incubation tubes for fertilization and development. Each Majjvara lived for
about 400 years, providing the Yvarema society with stability. After the crew of the FarStar landed on Yvara, the Majjvara learned of the
atrocities of the Empire from Gunthar, and pledged her support - in principle - to the New Republic. (KR)

2) this is the deity which controls the world of the Sunesi race. When certain Sunesi, like Agapos the Ninth and Nee, began to use the
Force to heal others, the Sunesi believed that it was a gift from the Maker. The Maker was also known as the Giver, and was believed
to be the single being from which the galaxy’s diversity of life flowed. Most Sunesi believed that the Maker loved all his creations, but
was not above using a sense of humor in his creations. (SWJ10, BP)

this modified YT-1300 was owned and operated by Sythluss Leethe. Leethe had installed a wide range of security measures to prevent
the ship from being stolen, including stun steps and incapacitating gases. It was armed with a turret-mounted quad-laser cannon and a
pair of forward-mounted concussion missile launchers. Leethe often traveled with the ship, under the name of One Shot, during his
dealings in the black market manufacture of droids. Despite the many security measures, T'Charek Haathi and her Alliance shipjacking
team managed to steal The Maker for the Alliance. (SWJ13)

Makezh
this native of the planet Danoor was a well-known navigator, and was thought to have been the only person to successfuly navigate the
Kathol Rift. However, about a year before Moff Sarne was forced to flee Kal'Shebbol, Makezh was reduced to an amnesiac after an
encounter with the Aing-Tii monks. They left him in a light transport just outside the Rift, and that's where all his memories began. After
this, he found that navigating the Rift was quite easy, and earned plenty of credits making the run for private and public employers.
After being arrested for petty theft during a slow period, Makezh was visited by scientists who wanted to know about his ability to
navigate the Rift. He started developing severe headaches shortly thereafter, and went into hiding in his apartment on Eror Zeen. He
later helped the crew of the FarStar navigate through the Rift, during their hunt for Moff Sarne, eventually joining the crew. Unknown to
Makezh, he had been trained by the Aing-Tii Monks for one purpose: to locate and obtain the Codex from an alien construct deep in the
Kathol Rift. When the FarStar moved to investigate a pair of distress calls from the planet Demonsgate, Makezh suddenly went mad
and stole the Codex from the ship's hold and fled in an X-Wing he appropriated. Despite his skills as a navigator, Makezh was a poor
pilot, and he crashed the craft on Demonsgate's surface. Makezh ejected before the crash, and made his way on foot to deliver the
Codex to the Aing-Tii Monks. He was intercepted by the bounty hunter Mist, who attempted to steal the Codex for the Imperials.
Unfortunately for Makezh, the Aing-Tii who recovered the Codex also captured him and brought him back to their ship. (KO, KR)

Makintay, Stevan
this young man was part of the nobility on the planet Hargeeva. Like all yong noble males, he was sent to the royal guards for formal
military training. As the eldest son, Mak – as he was known to his friends – was also the heir to the throne of Hargeeva. He learned the
intricate ways of swordsmanship, and had the scars to prove it, inlcuding one that ran down his right cheek. He was also a graduate of
the Imperial Academy, and became a skilled starfighter pilot. However, back on Hargeeva, Mak fell in love with Ketrian Altronel. He
intended to marry her, despite her position as a member of the common calsses, but his father wouldn’t allow it. Mak was disinherited
and his father arranged for him to be kidnapped and sent off to Garen IV, an Imperial penal colony. Many years later, he and a group of
Alliance agents managed to escape, and Mak immediately joined the Alliance. He spent much of his free time working to establish a
rebel cell on Hargeeva, and he eventually led the rebels in a large-scale revolt. His role as a rebel leader on Hargeeva earned him the
death mark in the system, but he continued to work to free his homeworld. In the meantime, he worked hard for the Alliance in many
capacities, from Eyrie Base. When he returned again to Hargeeva, Mak was captured by Nial Pedrin while trying to see Ketrian. She
had been told by Mak’s father that he had abandoned her, and she felt no love for him. However, they were captured by Pedrin’s forces
and shipped off to Coruscant. During the trip, Ketrian’s good friend Alikka Nolan was killed during interrogation, and she began to
believe Mak. When the Ghawem pirates attacked their ship, Mak and Ketrian were allowed to go free. They returned to Eyrie Base and
began working together for the Alliance. (SWJ8)

freighter Eyeshine. (SSR)
Mal'ary'ush
Noghri term for "The Daughter of Darth Vader" (HTTE)
Mala Mala
this near-human woman was a little-known bounty hunter with exception marksmanship. In her youth, she hated droids, and often used
them as target practice with her partner, Nikk Zavod. Zavod doublecrossed her, claiming that he knew the location of Chewbacca, while
all he really wanted to do was steal her ship. He asked her to check out an infestation of Corellian limpets in the thrusters, then blasted
off while she was still inside the exhaust nacelles. Zavok left her for dead, but it was Chewbacca himself who found her dying body. He
nursed her back to health, although she was badly disfigured and needed cybernetic replacements for much of her body. When she
tried to communicate with Chewbacca, all the Wookiee could do was mutter the name of his wife, Mallatobuck. Thinking that he was
talking to her, she decided that her new name would be Mala Mala. She used a robotic construct to move around, and gave it a brain so
that it could act without her constant attention. She named it 4-D. She also used several other droids to assist her in her work as a
boutny hunter. She was nearly killed on Centares when Darth Vader learned that Luke Skywalker had destroyed the first Death Star.
Vader had all the witnessed to the interrogation which produced the name executed, and Mala barely escaped with the name of Luke
Skywalker to sell. She confronted the Alliance pilot who was interrogated, and agreed to shoot him rather than let him fall into Vader's
hands. Mala was then chased through the nearby woods until she as cornered on a point of land. She and 4-D were forced to jump in
order to escape,and 4-D was crushed in the attempt. She was rescued by another of her droids, B-6, and together they fled to
Coruscant. They were shot down by the Imperial perimeter patrols, and their small ship crashed outside Imperial City. B-6 was
damaged in the crash. She used the droid as a trap to delay the stormtroopers, but was eventually caught by a patrol of stormtroopers.
It was later revealed that Mala was secretly working for Emperor Palaptine, and was tracking the Dark Lord during his hunt for the pilot
who won the Battle of Yavin. She returned to Coruscant to provide the pilot's name to Palpatine himself, in return for a new ship and a
load of droid parts to rebuild her friends. Palpatine then used the name - Luke Skywalker - to punish Vader even more for the
destruction of the Death Star. (VQ, C)

Malakili
this tremendous Corellian human was a professional monster trainer for the Circus Horrificus. His ability to handle and train unusual
alien creatures was renowned throughout the galaxy. He had spent seven seasons as the head trainer, which was a record. When Bib
Fortuna and Bidlo Kwerve came into posession of a rancor for Jabba the Hutt, they purchased Malakili from the Circus Horrificus to
tend the beast. His otherwise muscular body, developed from years of hard work training the galaxy's most dangerous beasts, was
hidden beneath a huge paunch grown from the good eating he enjoyed at the Circus. In the oppressice heat of Tatooine, he dressed
only in a loincloth and a black headdrape. He became good friends with Jabba's cook, Porcellus. When he learned that Jabba was
going to pit the rancor against a krayt dragon, he appealed to the Lady Valarian for assistance. She agreed to help him, just to spite
Jabba. However, Luke Skywalker killed the rancor before any of their plans could materialize. Malakili was heartbroken, but he quickly
came to his senses when he heard Jabba had been killed at the Pit of Carkoon. He and Porcellus fled the castle, and eventually
opened the Crystal Moon restaurant in Mos Eisley. (TJP, CCG7)

Malanose
this world, part of the remote Gree Enclave, was once the primary world of the Gree crafter and researcher castes. During the height of
Gree civilization, what is known by the Gree as “the most ancient and forgotten time,” Malanose was colonized and covered with cities
that produced new and ecxiting devices and technologies. As their society declined and the devices which it created were worn out, the
Gree raided the buildings of Malanose for any piece of technology they could transport to the other Gree worlds. Only the largest and
most bulky pieces of technology were left behind, and remain unused in the abandoned cities. The most famous remaining device is the
Totth’k Lotos, a technology that is rumored to provide eternal life. In reality, the Totth’k Lotos simply maximizes a body’s structural
integrity, allowing a frail, elderly Gree to become a healthy, elderly Gree. The average day on Malanose consumes 18 standard hours,
while its year lasts 320 local days. (SWJ8)
Malanx, Cev
this smuggler was also a contact of the New Republic. Malanx grew up in the spacing business with his father, who took his young son
everywhere in the Mid Rim Territories. When his father had decided Cev was old enough to be on his own, he sent the young man off in
a battered Ghtroc freighter to the Outer Rim. Cev never returned, having been stranded at Gelgelar Free Port. There he met Regec
Sloom, and the two decided to team up and ply the spacelanes together. Cev was unaware of Sloom’s trouble with the Empire, and
spent much of their time avoiding Imperial entanglements. However, they worked in Corva Sector just long enough to save a few credits
and get back to the Mid Rim. After helping New Republic agents discover the whereabouts of Mers Ulcane, Malanx and Sloom fled for
the Core Worlds. (SWJ8)

Malik
this Imperial agent posed as a crewman aboard the Star of Empire in order to get the Systems Infiltration Manager installed for its first
test. Malik was then assigned to give Zak Arranda a tour of the ship's computer facilities. Malik was a gruff man, and didn't like the idea
of being a nursemaid. He had been assigned to the crew by someone above Captain Hajj, who despised his presence and would have
thrown Malik in the brig at the first opportunity. Malik, while being an excellent programmer, proved to be a soldier with a conscience,
and told the SIM program that he wouldn't enter the codes to free its programming. So, the SIM programm tortured him in hopes of
getting the codes. When Zak unwittingly typed in the code, Malik tried to stop him but was stunned by Dash Rendar. Malik was brought
off the Star of Empire with Zak, Tash, and Hoole, and taken to an Alliance hospital for treatment. (GOF10)

homeworld of Nal Hutta. (HT, JE)
Malis
this bounty hunter once agreed to be interviewed by Regnor Vanth for the Sektor 242 NewsLine. Malis was an Imperial-licensed hunter,
and had a twisted sense of justice. He believed that he hunted members of the Alliance because they were criminals, claiming that
Luke Skywalker was a vicious murdered for destroying the Death Star, along with the multitude of personnel aboard. Malis believed that
Alderaan should have been destroyed, since it was the homeworld of rebellion against the order of the Empire. Malis also believed that
he himself was simply a hunter, not a murderer, despite his record of bringing back bounties dead more often than not. Much of his
belief system stemmed from the fact that he was the only survivor of an Alliance raid on Keskin which wiped out his entire platoon.

Chewbacca's Wookiee wife, her name is often shortened to just Malla. As a young Wookiee, she was a caregiver to many of the elderly
Wookiees of Chewbacca’s community, including Attichitcuk. This time spent with Chewie’s extended family - and primarily his father -
brought the two together. When the Empire raided Kashyyyk for slaves and took Chewbacca, Malla waited for nearly fifty years until

Malrev
this planet, the fourth in the Malrev System, was the site where the Starfaring was lost after a bug in its navigational software
transposed the coordinates it was using. A temperate world covered with dense forest, it was the homeworld of the Irrukiine race. It was
also the location of a temple which was built on a nexus of Dark Side energy, a temple which was to be used as an outpost by Emperor
Palpatine before he was killed at Endor. The temple later served as the base of power for the mad Devaronian Cartariun, who had been
serving as a technician at the site. Cartariun used the Sith magics to control the native Irrukiine and make them fight using the powers
of the Dark Side. (XWRR)

Maltaz
an Impeial General who was at one time in command of the Hell's Hammer unit on Turak IV. There, he allowed his squadron to be cut
of from its supply lines by the Alliance soldiers hidden in the Hitak mountains. Then, further compounding his bad decision, he ordered
his squadron to stand and fight. The Alliance soldiers quickly reduced the Hammers to three tanks, but the Hammers' never-say-die
attitude kept them in the battle long enough for TIE Fighter reinforcements to arrive and bombard the Alliance's landing field. (ISB)
Maltha Obex
this is the Tobek name given to the planet Brath Qella. The Tobek discovered the planet some years after the Old Republic's Third
General Survey team found it. The Survey team's follow-up expedition found the planet glaciated, and it was deemed that Brath Qella
wasn't worth further effort. The planet seemed to disappear from Republic records, and was forgotten during the reign of Emperor
Palpatine. The Tobek took control of the planet, and renamed it Maltha Obex, the name that appeared in the New Republic's database
when Kroddok Stopa was dispatched to find Brath Qella. The intense hunt for information about the Qella led to the discovery that the
planet originally had two moons. The orbit of one moon decayed, and it collided with the other. The resulting destruction caused both
moons to crash into Brath Qella, plunging the world into an ice age. The natives of the planet - known as Qella - fled the world until
such time as it recovered from the disaster, when they could return and repopulate it. (SOL, TT)
Malthor
this planet maintained a bustling trading industry, which supported the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. (CRO)
Malthorn
this man worked with Alexis Cov-Prim, ostensibly as a publicity agent. However, Malthorn was also an efficient bounty hunter whose

simply as "Mama." (SL)
Mammon Hoole
twenty years before the Battle of Yavin, Mammon Hoole joined the Empire as a scientist. A Shi'ido, Hoole was teamed with
Borborygmus Gog in the search for the ability to control life and death. Emperor Palpatine himself approved the funding for a huge base
on the planet Kiva, where they nearly discovered a way to create life from nothing. However, Hoole recognized that their experiments
would steal all the life from the planet Kiva, leaving it a barren wasteland and wiping out the native Kivans. Gog, however, didn't care for
the results of the experiment, as long as it continued. He failed to relay Hoole's message to Palpatine, and provided Hoole with a false
response from the Emperor approving further tests. In the end, Kiva was wiped out, and Hoole was blamed by Gog for the failure of the
experiment. Hoole fled Imperial service, hiding wherever he could and using his shape-changing ability to elude capture. Many years
later, Hoole decided to expose the Project, known as Starscream, and joined the Empire as a Senior Anthropologist assigned to
investigating many planets and adding information about them to the Empire's planetary database. He used the Shi'ido's ability to
shape-shift as a way to blend in with planetary races, easing his transition into their culture and opening them up to his questions. He
once did a report on Tatooine, detailing the lives of the Jawas, Sand People, and even Jabba the Hutt's retinue. When Hoole realized
what the Empire stood for, he fled Imperial service and returned to Tatooine seeking Jabba's help. Through the crimelord's various
sources, Hoole managed to get all records of his existence erased from the Imperial databanks, and he was given a new identity. He
also created the droid D-V9 to help him in his efforts. Just as he began his search for the whereabouts of Borborygmus Gog and Project
Starscream, Hoole learned that the planet Alderaan had been destroyed, and his brother and sister-in-law had been killed. He then
became the only living guardian of their children, Tash and Zak Arranda, who had been on a field trip when the Death Star destroyed
Alderaan. He had to bring them along on his search, and entrusted much of their care to DV-9. Hoole and the children then tracked
down all the leads on Gog and Starscream, eventually managing to destroy it on Kiva, along with Gog himself. This earned them the
wrath of Darth Vader and a death warrant in just about every star system they could flee to, although they managed to remain one step
ahead of the Empire. (ISU, GOF1, GOF2, GOF6, GOF7)

Manaroo
this female Aruzan was Abano’s daughter. An accomplished dancer, Manaroo was known by many Aruzans for her natural talents. She
was recognizable by her fair blue skin and dark blue air. Manaroo was taken off Aruza by the bounty hunter Dengar before Imperial
troops could “process” her. After Dengar was accepted as part of the Imperial bounty hunt for Han Solo, Manaroo found work on Cloud
City as a dancer. She danced to a band’s accompanyment while juggling colored stones. She became lonely, though, and offered to
share herself with Dengar via her Attanni. She fled Cloud City with Dengar after the Empire garrisoned it, and travelled to Tatooine.
During the trip, she gave Dengar a link to her Attanni, and they shared each other’s emotions and thoughts. Before reaching Tatooine,
Dengar took her to Aruza to rescue her parents, then went to the desert world. She was captured by a huge, loose-skinned creature at
the Mos Eisley cantina and brought to Jabba the Hutt as a dancer. She danced several times, almost all for her life, as Jabba’s palace
was thrown into chaos. The Alliance rescued Han Solo in a daring plot led by Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa, and Jabba was killed at
the Pit of Carkoon. Manaroo escaped and searched for Dengar, finding him in the Valley of Wind and rescuing him. As he recovered,
Dengar agreed to marry Manaroo. In an effort to pay off their bills, they tried to raid Jabba’s sail barge for lost credits, but found Boba
Fett instead. They took the nearly-dead Fett back to Dengar’s hideout in the desert, along with the female dancer, Neelah. Once there,
Dengar insisted that she take the Punishing One and go into hiding. He was worried that their association with Boba Fett would lead to
trouble. Manaroo agreed, and remained with the ship near Tatooine for nearly a month while Fett healed and the bounty hunters
struggled against Kuat of Kuat and the assembler Balancesheet. It was during this time that Manaroo, realizing that they needed a huge
fortune to clear their debts and retire, placed a bet with Drawmas Sma’Da on the fate of Dengar himself. Sma’Da took the bet, having
little faith in Dengar’s abilities. In the final struggle over the planet Kuat, Manaroo managed to save them all by rescuing the Hound’s
Tooth before it could disintegrate. She then contacted Sma’Da and recovered her winnings, a sum more than sufficient to pay off their
debts. After Dengar finally agreed to retire, Boba Fett agreed to be the best man at their wedding. (TBH, MA, HM)

Manchisco, Tessa
a native of the planet Virgillia 7, this woman was a veteran Captain who served briefly with the Alliance. The commander of the cruiser
Flurry, Tessa joined the Alliance fleet at Endor shortly after serving in the Virgillian Civil War. Tessa was instrumental in the
organization of guerilla warriors into serious military units during the civil war, turning the tide against the sheer power of her Imperial-
backed enemies. She later commanded a small fleet of twenty-two ships sent to Sullust by the Virgillian Free Alignment. A student of
the Virgillian military, Tessa’s tactics were unorthodox, and confused the Imperial captains during the civil war and at Endor. She and
her crew were killed near Bakura, when Imperial Governor Nereus ordered his ships to fire on the Alliance's ships, following a battle
against the Ssi-ruuk. (TB, TBSB)

Run, opposite Endoraan. It is the primary planet in the Mantooine System, which shares the Atrivis Sector with the Fest System. The
planet was the site of an Imperial massacre, in which the planet's inhabitants were murdered when they opposed the Empire. The
crushing defeat of the planet's populace hardened the resolve of early resistance leaders like Mon Mothma, and helped solidify the
need for an Alliance to Restore the Republic. (SWSB, XW, TFE)
Mantooine
this New Republic CR90 Corvette was part of the force sent to liberate the planet Ciutric from the control of Prince-Admiral Krennel. It

smuggling to fund the doctor's visits and medicine she needed to survive. Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, she was under the care of
Doctor T'jaleq Kith'Araquia. Pierce used her sad story as an excuse to steal the Amber Eye from Schnil Hakoon. (SWJ1)
Mantrell, Pierce
this man was one of Schnil Hakoon's chief rivals, and was a master thief and conman. Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, Hakoon

without enough credits to live. He claimed that he wanted to use the Eye to fund the medicine he needed to cure his daughter, Olina. In
reality, he had no daughter, and simply wanted the Eye to fund his own operations. A team of Alliance agents, on the planet to obtain a
cure for the Direllian Plague, captured Mantrell and obtained the Amber Eye. They later returned it to Schnil Hakoon, who repaid them
with supplies. (SWJ1)

this Whiphid was big for his species, and was easily distinguished by his carved and silver-inlaid tusks. He was the second son of a
wealthy trader, and not in line to inherit any major wealth. So, he left Toola to join his uncle as a bounty hunter. Although he hated the
work, he liked the pay. One day, he found a special exhibit of carnivorous plants in a zoo display. He suddenly realized that the power
and beauty of the plants appealed to him, and he spent the rest of his career collecting dangerous species of plants. (HR)
Maranium

Marasa Nebula
this vast expanse of space-borne gases cut off the planet Marasai from the rest of the galaxy for many millennia. It forces the Trellen
Trade Route to make a wide detour around it, for it effectively cuts off hyperspace travel. 13 star systems are located within the Nebula,
including the Marasai System. The Empire enslaved the Marasan race, hoping to use captive Marasans to shorten the path around the
Nebula by using travel nodes known only to the Marasan. (GG12)
Marasai
this planet is the homeworld of the Marasan race, and is located within the Marasa Nebula. It has a gentle, temperate ecology, but its
seasonal changes are unpredictable due to its proximity to the Nebula. (GG12)
Marasan
a race of cyborged sentients originating from the Marasa Nebula, the Marasans are large marsupials with thick bodies and long, spindly
arms. They walk on two short, muscular legs, and have two sensory appendages in addition to two eyes and a mouth on their flat faces.
All Marasans wear a thin, metallic implant wrapped around the backs of their heads. The implant was originally developed to help the
Marasans navigate through the chaos of the Marasa Nebula, and evolved into a device which controlled certain autonomic and natural
functions. They are a slow-moving race, but their implants allow them to think and communicate electronically. This allows them rapid
access to information, and provides nearly instantaneous answers. Their interpersonal skills are lacking, however, when they have to
deal with other races. The Marasan race originated on the planet Marasai, and developed the ability to travel through space on their
own. Using strange anchorpoints - similar to jump gates, but known only to the cyborged Marasans - within the Marasa Nebula, they
were able to travel to 20 colony worlds. This ability was desired by the Empire, which sought a way to shorten the Trellen Trade Route.
They forced the Marasans to assist in the movement of Imperial starships through the Nebula by torutring them. The Empire developed
a device which could send out immense electromagnetic waves tuned to the Marasan cyborg implants. The resulting pain could be
spread out across nearly the entire Nebula, were the Marasans to disobey Imperial orders. The Alliance was powerless to assist: to
incite the Marasans to rebellion would bring down the wrath of the Imperial wave device, while the willful stranding of Imperial ships in
the Nebula would bring on the power of the Imperial fleet. (GG12)
Marasi
this Yevethan term is used to describe a young Yevethan female who is ready to be impregnated. (SOL)
Marauder
a race of humanoid reptiles living on Endor. They have a fortress hidden in the rocky wastes of the moon, and have been trapped there
for a number of years. They have evolved into a vicious race, often waylaying visitors to the planet and stealing their technology. They
have obtained a number of laser weapons in this manner, and sustain themselves by eating the beings they ensnare. They have
strange, simian faces, scaled skin, and sparse tufts of hair. They have three fingers and an opposable thumb on each hand. They all
wear makeshift armor created from the scraps they scavenge. The strongest Marauder is declared the King. Terak was the Marauder
King when Noa and Salek crashed on Endor, as well as when the Towani family landed on the moon. Terak was obsessed with finding
"The Power," which he hoped would allow the Marauders to conquer more than just the simple life forms of Endor. The Marauder prison
guards were portrayed by Michael Pritchard and Johnny Weissmuller, Jr.. Terak's Leiutenant was portrayed by Roger Johnson in
Ewoks: The Battle for Endor.

Marauder
a New Republic Warrior-class gunship that was part of Pakkpekatt's fleet sent to intercept the Teljkon vagabond. It was ordered to

Marauder-class Cruiser
an out-moded pocket cruiser designed by Republic Sienar Systems, the Marauder-class measured 195 meters in length. They are
sleek, aerodynamic craft designed for system patrol and smuggling interdiction missions. They are armed with eight double turbolasers,
with an option to add four more turbolasers with a larger power generator. Three tractor beam projectors allow the Marauder-class to
capture smaller ships. A wing of IRD starfighters can also be housed in its fighter bay. The Marauder was manned by a crew of 129,
with 48 gunners and room to transport up to 40 troops. The Old Republic opted not to purchase the ship for government use, and the
fledgling Corporate Sector stepped in to buy them. Once the ships showed up in Corporate Sector space, other planetary governments
began to submit orders to the RSS plant on Lianna. The Marauder-class quickly became one of RSS most recent successes, although
the ship eventually found its way into the hands of smuggler and pirates. Corporate Sector Marauders were deployed in pairs, along
with a Victory-class Star Destroyer and Invincible-class cruisers for system control. (HSL, EGV)

Marca
this swamp planet was the homeworld of the Sekct species. Because of the existence of a Dynamic Synergetics Incorporated
hyperbaride production facility on the planet, the Empire had all records of Marca erased from planetary databases, in order to use the
planet as they saw fit. The hyperbaride production was lethal to the native Sekct, and their species was nearly wiped out. A team of
Alliance agents, on their way to Sumitra Sector, cut through the Marcellus Nebula and was forced to land on the planet. The team
eventually brought down the hyperbaride plant, with the help of the Sertim sisters and the Sekct, and helped free the Sekct from its
toxic wastes. The planet itself is covered with a swamp-filled ocean, with virtually no continental land mass, and measured some 12,000
kilometers in diameter. The heat of the planet, combined with its swampy surface, generated a continual shroud of mist which
enveloped the planet. The mists collected and dispersed sunlight, making it appear as if Marca had no day/night schedule, just a
perpetual hazy gloom. The year on Marca was measured as 340 standard days. (POM)

chose her to be the new Governor-General of the Corellian System, following the end of the Starbuster plot and the death of
Micamberlecto. She relocated to Corellia in order to help bring peace to the system. Later, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the
galaxy, Marcha reluctantly gave her conditional approval to the New Republic Defense Force’s plan to use Centerpoint Station as a
weapon against the alien invaders. In the aftermath of the Battle of Fondor, Marcha was kicked out of office, removing the Republic’s
last hold on the Corellian Sector. (AS, SC, JE, BP)

Marelle, Tanda
this woman was born to Alderaanian parents, who owned a prominent shipping operation during the Old Republic. However, she
chafed at the structured existence her parents forced on her, and she eventually became a travel agent in order to see other, more
exciting worlds. She eventually was hired by Galactic Resorts holozine as a freelance critic. She also discovered that she had a knack
for obtaining jewelry, although her methods were completely illegal. As she traveled on luxury liners to exotic ports of call, she learned
to steal the valuables of just about anyone, and became known throughout the galaxy as the Tombat. She allowed the misconception
that the Tombat was male to grow, further adding to her mystique while throwing off pursuit. During this time, she was shaken by the
destruction of her homeworld - mainly because she had stashed a huge cache of jewels in her estate on Alderaan - and vowed to strike
back at the Empire in any way she could. She approached Airen Cracken about becoming an agent on Albecus, and joined the Alliance
as a freelance spy. Her support for the Alliance was spotty, but she felt no love for the Empire. (CRO)

Marg Sonat
this Ithorian crimelord worked in the Tamarin Sector during the early years of the New Republic, and was a member of Sard
Nihgtbringer's criminal empire. However, Marg Sonat wanted more power for himself, and sought a way to bring down Nightbringer and
place himself in power. When Sard tried to auction off a set of prototype Imperial armor, Sonat tried his best to obtain it. He had it
shipped to the Stellar Mermaid on Nightbringer's orders, but used an independent team of smugglers to transport it. He then enlisted
the aid of his old friend, Pari' Notgoth, to take possession of the prototype. Their plans nearly succeeded, except for the loose end f the
smugglers they hired to transport the prototype. They discovered the body of Morgotou, then discovered that Sonat had killed Natja the
Hutt in order to obtain the prototype. Sonat then killed Sard Nightbringer, and tried to flee the Stellar Mermaid with his new possession.
The smugglers caught him and blasted Sonat out of the luxury liner in an escape pod. The prototype was destroyed in the firefight, and
the only known information on its construction had been memorized by Sonat. The secrets of the prototype were lost with him. (POC)

of the Jedi under Luke Skywalker. About six months into their training, Nichos somehow contracted Quannot's Disease, and began to
slowly deteriorate. Cray, her love for Nichos unbounded, worked stridently to create an android body to replace his withering human
body. She was able to perfectly replicate his form, but her lack of understanding of the Ssi-ruuk entechment techniques prevented her
from fully transferring his mind to the new body. Once transferred, Nichos lost touch with the Force, and also lost much of his humanity,

Matthews, Tev
this Alliance Colonel was involved with the Alliance almost from the beginning, serving with distinction during the liberation of Galleefryn
II before opening up secret supply routes through the Corporate Sector. However, an information leak allowed data on these missions

Sector on a smuggling ship. Tev later died under interrogation. (TBSB)
Matthews, Ty
the son of Tev Matthews, Ty joined the Alliance at the young age of fifteen, eager to support the cause his father so deeply believed in.
Ty was adopted by his father’s old unit, after Tev was killed while under Imperial interrogation. Demonstrating a skill with circuit repair
and an understanding of technology, Ty was eventually assigned as a computer technician aboard the Home One. He further
distinguished himself while on the Mon Calamari crusier, and soon found himself on Admiral Ackbar’s staff. He earned the rank of
Lieutenant, and was later responsible for decrypting the contents of the Imperial message drone captured in the wake of the Battle of
Endor. (TB, TBSB)

of Praadost II, she fought against a group of dedicated Alliance forces who seemed to be possessed. When she entered their location
and tried to root them out, she discovered that the Alliance soldiers were trying to protect a refugee camp hidden in an underground
cave. Osira saw that the Imperial forces were expending huge amounts of ammunition and killing a large number of beings in order to
wipe out a group of pitiful refugees. She immediately decided to defect from the Empire, no longer believing that strength and force
were the correct tools for governing the galaxy. Once she was accepted by the Alliance, she spent her career teaching commandos
about guerrilla warfare and Imperial tactics. (HR)
Maw
this huge beast was one of the Dark Jedi who worked with Jerec. Humanoid in shape, Maw was incredibly massive, loyal to no one but
himself, and he had a flagrant disregard for human life. Although large and muscular, Maw was also quite fast in battle. When Jerec
interrogated Qu Rahn about the location of the Valley of the Jedi, Maw was injured during Rahn's brief defense. The injuries required
that Maw's legs be amputated and replaced with a small repulsorchair. He quickly adjusted to life in the chair, and used it to his
advantage when battling an enemy. When injured, Maw would go into a berserker rage, spinning wildly in his chair while swinging his
lightsaber. For all his power, though, Maw was defeated by Kyle Katarn during the search for the Valley of the Jedi. (DF2)
Maw, The
a collection of black holes near Kessel. Its existence is a mystery. The greatest minds in the galaxy have been arguing about its

spaceport in Zehava, during the struggle between The Young and their elders of the Daan and Melida. He later became one of Nield's
chief lieutenants, although it was later revealed that it was Mawat, acting in an effort to cause a confrontation, who supplied arms to
both The Young and the elders of the Daan and Melida shortly before Cerasi's death. Mawat wanted to rule Zehava for himself, and
believed Nield was weakening under the stress of leadership. Mawat went so far as to place snipers in the buildings surrounding the
Hall of Evidence on Glory Street, where Wehutti and Nield confronted each other, in case either backed down. It was one of Mawat's
snipers who killed Cerasi and started the firefight. Mawat tried to rally his forces and defeat Nield, but Qiu-Gon Jinn displayed a
hologram of Cerasi, recorded shortly before her death, in which she pleaded for peace. Mawat, who had secretly loved Cerasi, threw
down his arms and surrendered. (UP)

could eat as payment for employment, Max immediately said yes. When Jabba was killed at the Pit of Carkoon, the trio jumped off his
sail barge before it exploded, and fled into the desert. Max and Sy Snootles teamed up to play for Lady Valarian, and Droopy
disappeared into the desert. When Sy decided to go solo, Max joined up with the Alliance, claiming that they had better food than the

this Mon Calamari star cruiser improved further upon the MC80 and MC80a designs, adding more powerful shields and heavier hull
reinforcement. It was designed as a bridge between the primarily civilian MC80 and MC80a cruisers and the MC90 military cruiser. The
MC80b measured 1,200 meters in length, and was armed with 48 turbolasers linked in four groups of twelve. Twenty ion cannons were
linked in groups of four. Four squadrons of starfighters were housed in the ship's docking bays. (EGV)
MC90 Cruiser
this was the first truly military starship designed by the Mon Calamari. They were more modular than the MC80-series, designed to be
more consistent with other, non-MC-class starships. The ship's displays were given multiple wavelength settings so that other species
could read them. The MC90 had an improved drive system, increased shielding, and better maneuverability. The power generators
were upgraded, and interior cargo space was expanded for carrying more starfighters. The Defiance was the first MC90 to see action,
during the first Battle of Calamari. These 1,255-meter ships were manned by 5,860 crewmen and 605 gunners, and could transport up

MdZ-BLK
this droid was built from a various of parts and pieces, but was at its core an MdZ-series automaton. The auto-balance legs were
maintained, and other components added on as needed. The droid was considered unusable by its first owners, being quite stubborn
and almost immune to memory wipes. Later, Blockhead (as he became known) was employed by Darion Seville as a galdiator droids,
and was forced to fight against protocol droids for Seville's amusement. This formed a deep-seated hatred of protocol droids in MdZ-
BLK's memory core,and resolved Blockhead to kill Darion Seville. She was saved by her son, Yearo, who ionized MdZ-BLK and sold it
to Gorbu the Hutt. blockhead succeeded in killing Gorbu before finding employment with Aimi Loto. Aimi recognized Blockhead as an
individual with rights, which made Blockhead quite happy. As an Alliance saboteur, Blockhead took great pleasure in using protocol
droids and remote explosive devices. (CRO)
MdZ-series Droid
this series of droids was built on an advanced locomotive base, and employed auto-balance legs that allowed it to operate in any
position. The design was quickly copied by both Industrial Automaton and Cybot Galactica. However, the MdZ's poor body was an
inferior knock-off of the S12 design, and the overall performance of the droids suffered. Eventually, the MdZ series was discontinued.

a planet which is home to some of the galaxy's finest droid specialists. The rogue IG-88 droids fled to Mechis III after escaping from the
Holowan Laboratories, and their high-speed computing power allowed them to outsmart the planet’s defense systems. They sent
several IG-like viruses into the defense computer, creating IG nodes throughout the planet. Each node communicated with the existing
droids, instructing them to eliminate all organic lifeforms. Once entrenched on Mechis III, the IG-88s plotted their take-over of the
galaxy. After the droids were eliminated, organic life returned to Mechis III to reprogram the security systems and restore the planet’s
normal activities. An unexpected windfall was the fact that the IG-88s had repogrammed the manufacturing lines to be twice as efficient
as they were under previous routines. (DS, TBH)

stay on Senali, despite the fact that he had reached his sixteenth birthday. Meenon protested, claiming that Leed had acted on his own.
He implored Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi to make Frane understand the situation, which quickly escalated when Frane
imprisoned Meenon's daughter, Yaana. Meenon, generally a peaceful man, threatened to retaliate if Frane persisted. When it was
discovered that Leed was, in fact, acting on his own, the Jedi also discovered that Leed's brother, Taroon, had the skills to rule in his
place. After getting all parties to talk to one another, King Frane realized that Meenon had been truthful and that Leed truly enjoyed
Senali. Frane freed Yaana and allowed Leed to return to Senali, and proposed that Taroon marry Meenon's other daughter, Drenna, to

Meido
this native of the planet Adin was a former Imperial supporter who was elected to the New Republic’s Senate by his people, during the
initial stages of Adin’s membership in the Republic. Although Leia Organa-Solo doubted that his election was fair, she nevertheless was
forced to recognize his position. Like others of his race, Meido was a thin being with a crimson face which sported thin, white lines that
grew brighter as he angered. Meido had two fingers on each hand. He admitted to supporting the Empire during its height, but
proclaimed that he was in support of Leia’s Republic. When Dolph bombed the Senate Assembly Chamber, it was Meido who
supported Leia’s attempts to investigate the bombing. However, he was really manipulating her into a position where the official
investigation would not meet his expectations. Meido called for an independent investigation, with himself as chairman, claiming that
the official search was too slow and somewhat biased. This fit into Dolph’s plans perfectly, for it allowed Dolph to plant more
incriminating evidence against Leia and Han Solo. In the aftermath of the bombing, Meido’s Senate position was officially voted on, and
he was granted full Senatorial status. He then brought forth circumstantial evidence that linked Han Solo to the Senate bombing. He
voiced strong opposition to Leia’s rule, and condemned her for leaving the Republic to find Dolph on Almania. However, after Dolph’s
plans were exposed, Meido admitted his part in the plan and was very apologetic to Leia. (TNR)
Meimonda, Dana
this woman was a native of Dakshee, where she performed as a classical actress. When the Empire subjugated the planet, she and her
husband fled to Esseles, where she became a socialite and entertainer for the Imperial troops there. Unknown to them, she was also a

Melida
this people was one of the two major factions which inhabited the planet of Melida/Daan. Throughout the history of their planet, the
Melida had seen the Daan as feral beasts, and used a legacy of perceived wrong-doings to continue their civil war. The older members
of both societies fought to avenge losses sustained centuries before, using their children as laborers in munitions factories while they

Melisma
this female Ryn was one of Droma's sisters. She was part of the group of Ryn which got transported to Gyndine, trying to outrun the
Yuuzhan Vong attack. During the New Republic's evacuation of Gyndine, Melisma and three others from her family were allowed to
leave the planet on the last rescue ship, and set out on their own to find Droma. They were then stranded on Ruan and forced to work
for Salliche Ag, which was claiming that they were helping the refugees out by giving them places to live in return for labor. However,
Gaph, another of Droma’s kin, worked with R’vanna to forge transport documents and get them off Ruan. They hoped to reach
Abregado-rae, but were stranded on Fondor by the crew of the Trevee. (JE)

Melne, Dren
this man was a native of Selton, on the planet Nabool, and served the Royal Naboo Security Force shortly before the Battle of Naboo.
He held the rank of Lieutenant and was a starfighter pilot within Bravo Squadron. Like his wingmate, Essara Till, he had spent some
time away from Naboo in order to gain skills with other starships. They never met while off-planet, but a relationship developed between
them after they both returned to Naboo. They tried to keep their personal relationship outside their professional relationship, but Dren
was something of an incurable romantic. Shortly before the Battle of Naboo, Dren was offered the chance to work for the governor of
Agamar, assembling a new fighter contingent to protect the planet. When Essara chose to remain on Naboo, Dren was forced to act on
his own. During the defense of station TFP-9, he revealed that his loyalties had shifted toward Captain Sorran’s forces and their
mysterious employer. Dren used his piloting skills to attack Echo One, and chased the harried trainee across the heavens in an effort to
break her will. Dren also hoped to have Essara order her pilots to stand down, so that several N-1 starfighters could be captured for
analysis. Essara was forced to disable his Naboo Police Cruiser with a pair of torpedoes. When Essara continued to defy Dren, and
even locked her missile launchers on his ship, Captain Sorran decided that Dren was unable to deliver the N-1 fighters as promised. In
return for his failure, Sorran opened fire on Dren’s ship and destroyed it, killing Dren in the process. (SFT)
Melodie
a race of intelligent, amphibious humanoids that inhabit the warmer climates of Yavin 8's equatorial mountains. They hatch from eggs
laid by elder Melodies and guarded by Melodie youths until they emerge, starting out life as air-breathing beings which resemble human
children. At the age of twenty, all Melodies undergo a transformation - known as the Changing Ceremony - in which they
metamorphose to become an amphibious creature. The metamorphosis can only take place in a ceremonial pool on Yavin 8, and
involves the Melodie changing into a mermaid-like creature that is destined to live out its life in the pools of Yavin 8. Their legs merge to
form a fish-like tail, and they grow gills on their ribcages. As newborn children, and as newly-transformed adults, the Melodies consume
trico mush until they can digest the silver-backed fish. (LW, AE)

Melvar
a native of the planet Kuat, Melvar was a former Imperial Navy General who aligned with the Warlord Zsinj shortly after the Empire’s
defeat at Endor. He was one of what many New Republic Intelligence officers called "patriotic psychopaths," those Imperial officers so
dedicated to the Empire that they became unstable and had to be removed from power before they could hurt their subordinates. His
fanatic support of the Empire impressed Zsinj, who took him under his wing after Melvar was kicked off the Destabilization task force he
was worked on because of his ardor for the Empire. Later, Melvar had platinum blades implanted in his fingers, in place of his
fingernails. He took some time to get used to them, as evidenced by the amount of scarring which was present on his face. Melvar was
killed on Dathomir by Gethzerion when she used the Dark Side of the Force to eliminate an entire platoon of Imperial stormtroopers and
their officers, who were poised to bring Han Solo to Zsinj. (IF, CPL, CTD)
Melvirre

Melvosh Bloor
a Kalkal academic, Bloor was a professor of Investigative Politico-Sociology at Beshka University. He came up with the idea of writing
an investigative paper on Jabba the Hutt, and petitioned the university for funding. P'tan interrupted, however, and claimed that he
should go instead of Bloor, since Bloor was an untenured junior professor. The board agreed with P'tan, and Bloor was forced to remain
at the university. When P'tan failed to return on time, the university sent Bloor to Jabba's palace on Tatooine to determine whether or
not P'tan was still alive, and to continue the study of Jabba and his crime ring. However, Bloor was waylayed in the tunnels by
Salacious Crumb. Crumb brought Bloor before Jabba, in an attempt to humor the Hutt. However, Bloor was a pure academic, not a
comedian, and the only joke he knew was one that Jabba had already heard. The Hutt fed Bloor to his pet rancor. (TJP)

Memcha-Badawzi
this young Twi'lek female was the daughter of crimelord Abdi-Badawzi. She was spoiled as an only child, and was born on Socorro.
Shortly before her eighteenth birthday, she fled the planet in an effort to find her own way. She found work as a spice smuggler, and
later joined the Alliance as a fighter pilot and marksman. However, she was captured by the Empire and sent to Vizcarra. During the
transport, she was forced to share a cell with an albino Wookiee named Syychi. Memcha saw the Wookiee's resignation to her lot in
life, and began speaking of freedom. Her words inspired both of them, and they arranged to have the slaves on board the ship revolt
against their Imperial captors. After overtaking the ship and freeing the slaves, Memcha and Syychi fled to Neftali to meet with Abdi-
Badawzi. Memcha's father placed her in charge of the Cordel Cove starport on Neftali, with Syychi as her second-in-command.
Memcha, like her father, had an unusual skin coloration, with a deep sable pigment to her flesh. (BSS)
Memit Nadill
this ancient Jedi Master was Empress Teta’s most trusted advisor, during the series of unification wars that brought together the seven
systems she ruled. Nadill was a regal, green-skinned humanoid with several small tails sprouting from the back of his head. His chin
was strong, and was dominated by a large, bony curl at the end. A number of short horns studded his skull. He and Teta believed that
both Odan-Urr and Jori Daragon were correct in predicting the imminent Sith attack, and began readying their own forces. Nadill rallied
the Jedi to his cause, and led the Jedi forces that defended Coruscant from Naga Sadow’s warriors. When Gav Daragon broke
Sadow’s concentration, Nadill realized that much of the attacking force was illusory - Sith magic kept it and the real warriors going. They
were able to dispel the illusions and turned the tide of battle. Nadill fought with the Force, eliminating the Sith threat from Coruscant.
(GAS, FOSE)
Memnii
this is a Caamasi term which describes any memory that becomes strong and almost tangible to them, such as the birth of a child or
meeting someone famous. Because of the strength of the memnii, which some Caamasi describe as nearly holographic but much more
tangible, they can also be shared with others through the mingling of genetic material. This ability to pass memnii seems to fade after
three or four generations of separation. The Caamasi also discovered that they could share memnii with Jedi Knights who became their
friends. (IJ)
Memory Capsule
produced in the wake of the destruction of Alderaan, Memory Capsules were used by the survivors to leave small gifts in the asteroid
field found where the planet used to be. Survivors, in a ritual that became known as Returning, would bring the capsules with them.
They would fill the capsules with items to honor their dead, and eject them into the asteroids. (BW)
Memorial Corridor
this expansive hallway was created in the Imperial Palace on Coruscant after the Galactic Civil War was ended. It contained a large
number of holographic statuary depicting the heroes of the Alliance, and was located just outside the main Senate Chamber. A large
sign was hung in the corridor which proclaimed the number of days since the New Republic had fired a shot at an enemy. The sign was
removed in the days following the Yevethan Purge, when Republic ordered the Fifth Battle Group to blockade Doornik-319. Behn-kihl-
nahm ordered the sign removed until the conflict was over. (BTS, SOL)

Mer, Duttes
the short, squat, gnarled human governor of Rafa IV, Duttes Mer was working with the Tund Sorcerer Rokur Gepta to try and find the
Mindharp of the lost Sharu race. They have learned about the Bearer and the Emissary, and have set up Vuffi Raa to be the Emissary.
Mer and Gepta sent Osuno Whett to the Oseon System to find a gambler who fits the description of the Bearer. When Lando Calrissian
arrives on Rafa IV, Mer and Gepta realize that he is a perfect candidate for the Bearer. They arrest him on trumped-up charges of
transporting mynocks into the system and illegal landing, then allow him off the hook if he'll help. Gepta offers Lando a load of
life-crystals as well, which Duttes Mer is reluctant to part with. When Lando returns with the Mindharp, Mer keeps it for himself. He
thinks that its purpose is to control the minds of others, and he begins to use it, thinking that he can control even Rokur Gepta.
Unfortunately for Mer, the Mindharp simply drains the life energy from Mer as it begins the transformation of the Rafa System
necessary to return the Sharu. Mer is "melted" into the Mindharp and never seen again. (LCM)
mer-9
this protocol droid worked in Rordan’s Spaceship Parts and More as a translator and assistant to Bren-Aarica Rordan. Mer-9 was

MeraStel
this major Darpa Sector conglomerate grew in power and wealth during the New Order. They kept costs low by employing alien labor at
minimum wages. When the Faceless began attacking Imperial operation on Esseles, the non-Human workforce of MeraStel went on
strike after hearing allegations of Imperial pro-Human stances. The strike brought the corporate giant to a virtual standstill, as only droid
labor was left to continue working. The strike was ended when Kanno Sebak negotiated a truce with Hall President Ralle. (SWJ9)
Merasy
this Nova-Drive #3-Z freighter was originally owned by Iep Tumu, before he was forced to turn it over to the authorities on Brentaal. The
ship was then sold to the Khil trader Geld Bernar, who modified it before selling to finance some investments. It was purchased by
Vacasor, who barely kept the ship running. One thing remained constant for the Merasy, and that was that each of her owners was a
poor mechanic, and never had the ship upgraded. (SS)
Merced, Lee

Vance Caelli. (BSS)
Mercevian Nagua
this legendary galactic pirate developed many assault and infiltration strategies which were still in use during the height of the New
Order. One of the infiltration methods Nagua developed was adopted by the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. An agent would
enter a building on legitimate business during the day, then find a storage area or other quiet place to hide out until the building closed.
This required patience, since many employees tended to work late, so an agent couldn't just pop out without making sure everything
was clear. Nagua was also credited with devising the pirate assault tactic known as The Dagger. Also named the Mercevian Nagua
Maneuver, this assault required a saboteur to board the target ship and either disable it or seize control outright, then deliver it to the
pirate fleet. (ML, PP)

violent storms that sweep its surface prohibit colonization. (PG)
Merisee
this planet, the primary world in the Merisee System of the Elrood Sector, was known as the "breadbasket of the Elrood Sector"
because its agricultural production provided foodstuffs to most of the sector. It enjoyed a free government even at the height of the New
Order, and its enlightened leaders strived to keep it that way. The planet's beautiful plains and sweeping vistas hide a dark side to the

this modified Action V transport was owned and operated by Saadooon-Kauldi, and served as the crimelord's base of operation. The
hull of the ship was painted with a matte-black finish, making it almost invisible to the naked eye. The interior of the ship was refitted to
allow the Kadri'Ra to inhabit the holds, and other areas were modified to accommodate passengers and bodyguards. A small squadron
of Z-95 Headhunters were maintained in the main hangar, and additional armament took the form of six turret-mounted turbolasers, four
quad-laser cannons, and a tractor beam projector. (BSS)
Merkin, Talos
this aging Alliance starfighter pilot was known to his comrades as Pops. He had trained on Y-Wings, and served as Gold Five during

Merkon, Tem
this old man roamed the streets of Phaeda's main starport city, collecting information on the movements of the Imperial troops
garrisoned there in the wake of Grand Admiral Thrawn's death. He funneled information to Mirith Sinn and her New Republic forces, but
he also provided information to Colonel Shev on the rebellious cell. In short, he provided information to the highest bidder. It was
Merkon who first brought Kir Kanos to the attention of Mirith Sinn, shortly before he sold them all out to Shev's forces. Merkon hid
Kanos from Shev's troops before he realized the price his secret would command. He then worked hard to remain in the good graces of
both sides, but let it slip that he knew Mirith Sinn would move her Republic forces to Collo Fauale in the wake of Shev's attack. This
alerted Sish Sadeet to his duplicity, and the Trandoshan tracked him to a meeting with Carnor Jax himself. Sinn and Sadeet confronted
Merkon with their evidence, and Merkon tried to escape their wrath by offering them half of the credits he collected for the information
on Kanos' whereabouts. In anger, Sinn's agent Massimo drove a knife into Merkon's chest, killing the old man. (CE)

Message to Spacers
known as a METOSP (pronounced "MEE-tosp"), this was a communications channel on which starship pilots obtained general notices
and up-to-date information on starports across the galaxy. These were one-way transmissions, as the pilot couldn't reply to the
METOSP. The information on the METOSP allowed starship pilots to land their ships without mishap, providing weather data, traffic
patterns, and other pertinent information. (PSG)
Message Wafer
a flat, rectangular card which contains a message. When the wafer is received by the designated recipient, he or she creases the card
in the center and cracks it open along the crease. The card can then be folded for standing on a flat surface. The card contains a set of

this Minos Cluster system once held planetary bodies, although all of them have been destroyed. In their wake stretches one of the
galaxy’s largest asteroid fields. It has been estimated that over 100 trillion pieces of rock exist in the field, with many of them being large
enough to rival small moons. The Mestra System has been mined for the abundant durelium ore found in the asteroids. The system is
owned and controlled by the Minos-Mestra Corporation. The asteroids are mined for their wealth of usable ores and minerals. The
asteroid belt circles the system every 611 local days, as measured from the asteroid Javis-12. The average “day” in the system lasts
about 45 standard hours, which is the median rotational period of the largest asteroids. There are a large number of rumors and

this species of small insect makes a loud humming noise when it swarms together. Metalmites are composed mainly of metals
themselves. They use biological enzymes to dissolve raw metals, then consume them for nutrients. Metalmites live in broods, with each
brood led by an empress or queen. Each brood has a different pitch to its humming, and rival broods often go to war against each
other. They can cause a lot of damage to any installation which is made of metal, or has metallic components. Drend Navett and Klif
managed to get a swarm of them into the Drev'starn shield generator power station by surreptitiously placing them on the clothing of
maintenance workers. The Bothans were forced to call them in - as they were acting as exotic pet dealers - to contain the infestation.
This allowed them to further their plans to take out the generator. (VOF)

Micro-book
this out-dated form of data storage is prevalent in many schools that can't afford updated educational materials. (CSWEA)
Micro-energy Field
this was an Imperial form of personal shield, developed shortly after the Battle of Yavin. However, the technology was very expensive,

a small, nearly invisible insect. (HM)
Midi-chlorian
this species of microscopic organism is known to the Jedi Knights as a symbiotic creature that exists within the cells of every living
creature. Life in the galaxy is dependent upon the midi-chlorians, although the exact genesis of the microscopic midi-chlorians is
unknown. There is no pattern which dictates the concentration of midi-chlorians in a being’s make-up, but a higher count of midi-
chlorians in a being’s cells allows them to touch the Force. As the count increases, so does the being’s ability to contact and control the
Force, but true mastery of the Force comes only from intense concentration and study. Thus, the Jedi Knights devoted themselves to
the study and control of the Force, and developed techniques that could detect high concentrations of midi-chlorians in young infants.

own it after winning it in a Sabacc game from Lando Calrissian. Lando had won the Falcon in an earlier sabacc match at Bespin, just
before he started hunting for the Treasure of Rafa. He had no idea how to pilot it, but he recognized its abilities. As he grew to become
a better pilot, Lando continued to upgrade the ship's systems, and it became his primary mode of transportation. After Han and Lando
(had just completed a run of the Kessel Spice Mines together/got together on Bespin), Lando was in a gambling mood. He was running
low on credits, so he added Han's choice of any ship in his used ship lot. Han chose the Falcon from among the junkers, much to
Lando's dismay. Once Han got control of it, he added a non-spec Imperial power plant and hyperdrive system, as well as an impressive
amount of armament: upper and lower quad laser cannons, an underside sweep gun, multiple forward laser gun pods, and a pair of
concussion missile tubes. The ship continued to astound those not familiar with its military-issue components and higher than normal
lift/mass ratio. The ships' central ladderwell, leading to the upper and lower quad-laser cannons, is equipped with separate gravity
generators, allowing the two people manning the cannons to operate in reciprocal gravity fields. After the Battle of Bakura, the Falcon
was swapped back and forth by Han and Lando in a series of Sabacc matches. Lando won the Falcon finally, but opted to give it to Han
as a gift, in order to end the inane series of card games.
The Millennium Falcon contains much of its original systems, as well as many modifications:

In the years following the births of Han Solo's three children, he began refitting the Millennium Falcon and removing some of its more
military components, in favor of safety and security. The concussion missile launcher were the first weapon removed, making it easier
to load and unload cargo. During the struggle to defeat the Yuuzhan Vong, Han painted the Falcon with matte-black paint, hoping to
make it harder to spot. In this way, he hoped to work with Droma to locate and rescue Roa and the Ryn’s family.

Millennium Falsehood
this was the second mock-up of the Millennium Falcon used by Wraith Squadron to draw out an Imperial force. The first involved the
use of two X-Wings with overlapping shields, a unit which presented transpoder codes to appear to the be Falcon and draw out Admiral
Trigit at Folor. The Millennium Falsehood was an actual YT-1300 freighter, painting and marked up to resemble the Falcon.
Transponder codes were altered just enough to imitate the real ship at a first glance. The ship was flown by Wedge Antilles and
Chewbacca himself, during a raid on Kidriff 5, in an effort to draw out Warlord Zsinj by having "Han Solo" show up on many of Zsinj's
worlds. (SOC)
Millennium Fighter
one of the many starships designs created by Millennium Astro-Engineering. It was one of the largest ships created by Millennium.
(CSWDW)
Millennium Hawk
this small starship was created by Millennium Astro-Engineering. It was a spear-headed ship with a large central power core flanked by
two sublight drives. It was popular among the smugglers and criminals which hounded the Empire during its expansion across the
Outlands region. Note that this issue of Classic Star Wars: Devilworlds claims that the prominence of the Millennium Hawk led
Millennium Astro-Engineering to create the Millennium Falcon, which directly contradicts the various WEG references. (CSWDW)
Millennium Holos
this subsidiary of Millennium Entertainments created the holo series Who Are You To Accuse Me?". They also owned several swoop
racing and sports teams. (CSA)
Millennium Oak
a species of tree native to Damualer Triac. (GG9)
Millicent
this woman was one of Sprax's concubines, shortly after the Battle of Hoth. Millicent was also one of Sprax's best agents, a closely-
guarded secret meant to keep everyone in the Nalroni's organization off their guard whenever she was around. Unknown to Sprax,
however, was the fact that Millicent really worked for Prince Xizor himself, keeping an eye on Sprax's dealings along the Sisar Run. In a
double twist, Millicent din't know she worked for Xizor, having been hired by Guri. (SSR)
Millinar
this temperate world has virtually no axial tilt, so it is always blanketed in beautiful weather with minimal rainfall. The land masses of the
planet never rise very far from sea level, and are dotted by natural springs and underground streams. Most of the plant life is succulent
in nature, with deep-reaching root systems that hoard water. The native of the planet are a group of hermaphroditic aliens that had
developed strange but fundamentally good skills in using the Force. The planet itself has never been actually placed on a starchart, for
most explorers and scouts believe that its existence is just a rumor. (GMH)
Milmit
this thug was one of Gorga the Hutt’s hired guns. Milmit was the first to discover the whereabouts of the Spirit of Jabba, but was unable
to stop Big Gizz and Spiker from stealing the craft. (TJT)
Milo Thirk
a member of the Alliance Intelligene organization, Thirk was the Bureau chief in the Bespin System. He did some early investigation on
Lando Calrissian as a possible source of supplies for the Alliance. (SWSB)
Milvayne
this planet, in the Gyrica System, was the site of an Imperial base during the Galactic Civil War. Mon Mothma once ordered an attack
on the base, and commanded Garm Bel Iblis to lead the attack. He refused, because the plan of attack would lead to the deaths of too
many soldiers. She relieved him of his duties to the Alliance, and Iblis happily agreed. This allowed him to strike out on his own, and
develop his own way of bringing down the Empire. (TTSB, EGC)
Mim
this was one of two moons which orbited the planet Ossus. (TOJC)
Mima
a planet knonw for its business centers. (ZHR)
Mima II
a planet in the Lar system, Mima II is the homeworld of the Bilar race. It is a small, tropical world with a 15-standard-hour day and a
103-local-day year. Because it orbits very close to Lar, Mima II's tectonic plates are pulled across its molten core like a moon causes
tides on a water world. This results in an almost continual reformation of the planet's landscape, but it also releases large amounts of
carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and other materials needed to create life. Thus, new species are regularly being found on a world that
already teems with life. (GG4)
Mimban
local name for Circarpous V. (SME)
Mimban Cloudrider
this Thyferran bacta freighter was captured by Rogue Squadron and used to appropriate bacta from Ysanne Isard's cartel. Wedge
Antilles offered the pilot's job to Booster Terrik, who refused. Booster did agree to run the Rogue's outpost at Yag'Dhul, though. (BW)
Mimbanite
an alien race native to Circarpous V, they look like large, furry balls of various colors and patterns. They have 4 short, furred legs on
their bottom half, and 4 arms on their top half. Their feet have two toes on each, and they have a hairless tail. Their eyes are wide and
inquisitive. They shun contact with other inhabitants of Mimban. (SME)
Mimbrane Organism
this creature is essntially an organic recording device. A thin, pasty-white sheet when first encountered, the mimbrane seems to
consume the sounds of its surroundings. The more it records, the more it swells up into a pillow shape. No longer than a human finger,
the mimbrane has rudimentary sight buds that allow it to sense between light and dark. Their brains are very small, but that can be
trained to follow a simple set of instructions. This combination of abilities makes them the perfect tool for beings who wish to
surrepticiously record a conversation for later playback. These creatures grow in huge colonies on one of the Q’nithian System’s
moons, living deep within the fault and fissures of its rocky surface. (MA)
Mimic
this brand of sensor decoy was produced by MerenData to compete with the Corellian Engineering Trickster drone. Like the Trickster,
the Mimic sent out sensory information along electromagnetic and holographic frequencies to make itself appear to be a real starship.

Imperial invasion of Agamar. (XW)
Min
Old Corellian for "mine" or "his." (SWAJ)
Min-Dal Company
this armor manufacturer attempted to test its prototype Gladiator battle armor on the criminals in the Soruus System. These criminals
were pitted in battles to the death, which were wagered on by the bureaucrats. However, the Gladiator armor was so good that the
criminals were able to shield themselves with it and escape from the prison. They caused heavy amounts of damage before being
recaptured by Imperial forces. Min-Dal was then forced to cancel its production of battle armor. (SWAJ)
Min min
Old Corellian for "I" or "myself." (SWAJ)
Minak, Lett
this man was a smuggler who worked for the Empire after the Battle of Endor. He was employed by Moff Feleea, but their personal
relationship was strained. Minak was approached by Moff Relans, who offered him the opportunity to work as a spy for his organization,
Minak agreed, and outwardly worked for Feleea aboard his freighter, the Shadow. On the side, Minak fed Feleea false information
given to him by Moff Relans. Working this way, Minak received protection from both Moffs, ensuring his own safety and a regular
income. (HR)
Minavar
this Outer Rim world was populated during the last years of the Old Republic. A virus struck the settlers just as Palpatine was taking
control of the galaxy, and their calls for help went unnoticed in the turnover. The majority of the population was wiped out. (SWAJ)
Mind-Jam
a coin-game often found in bars and casinos. (HSE)
Mind-Ugly-Ug
a term used by Halla for bureaucratic fools like Grammel. (SME)
Mind-witch
this unique humanoid species has intense mental abilities. They lure individuals near to them, then probe the being's mind to find out
what they like and desire. A relationship is then established with the individual, which the mind-witch forming a psychic link by creating
an illusory environment which is highly desirable to the individual. The mind-witch can then leech the mental and life-energies of its
victim in order to replenish its own energies. Some well-skilled mind-witches also have some telekinetic powers. (CSW)
Mindabaal
this planet was decimated by the Empire during the Galactic Civil War. Its populace was nearly wiped out, but there are rumors that the
rightful king escaped the destruction. His two daughters survived because they were off-planet at the time of the attack. Mindabaal is
located in the Outer Rim Territories. (SWAJ)
Mindar
planet where Han and Leia battled a squad of stormtroopers. (CPL)
Mindavar System
the settlers of this planetary system were nearly wiped out by an outbreak of a deadly virus. (SWAJ)
Mindharp
a fabled magical talisman of the Sharu, it was a meter-long tool shaped like a fork (as was the Key of the Overpeople). It was hidden in
the Great Pyramid on Rafa V, awaiting the emergence of the Bearer and Emissary. The Mindharp was the tool that the Toka could use
to recall the Sharu. The legends built by the Sharu themselves, in order to hide themselves in the guise of the Toka, said that the
Mindharp would call the Sharu back to aid the Toka in an emergency. However, the true purpose of the Mindharp was to unlock the
hidden knowledge of the Sharu and re-establish their intelligence networks. These networks were hidden eons ago when the Sharu
were frightened by a superior power. They hid all their knowledge in huge computer banks, and locked all but one of their number in the
disguise of the ignorant Toka, awaiting a time when the danger had passed and they could re-emerge. (LCM)
Mindnet
this Marasan construct links the cybernetic implants of all Marasan government officials into a single communications path. It allows
each of the electnodes to contribute to a group decision, which can be made almost instantaneously once all information is available.
The Grand Daern then collates the data from the electnodes and issues a final judgement. (GG12)
Mindori
this one of the many small mining settlements established on the planet Kallistas. Located north of Trevalis, Mindori was the second-
oldest settlement on the planet. The settlement was located nearby the planet's largest natural oasis and fruit grove. (GG10)
Minds and Perceptions: A Comparative Study of Persuasive Techniques During the Galactic Civil War
this work described, in detail, the various methods used by the Empire, the Corporate Sector Authority, and the Alliance to extract
information from captives. It was written by Ulm-Aaa-Janzikek, and was published by Triplanetary Press. (CSA)
Mine
a detonation device that can be distributed into open space and left there, lying in wait for unsuspecting ships to pass by. There are
many different kinds of mines. Most are contact mines: they sit in space and float until a passing ship physically touches them, at which
point they explode. Some are heat-seeking mines, armed with lasers that are targetted to the source of heat. There are also
combination mines, designed to explode on contact but also armed. There are three kinds of combination mines:
Type A, a 15-meter-long mine armed with a single laser cannon and a 5-RU hull
Type B, similar in armament to the Type A mine, but with a different shape
Type C, a 5-meter-long mine armed with a single laser cannon, a warhead launcher, and a 5-RU hull
(TIE)
Mineclan
this was the term used to describe a family on the planet Averill which owned and operated a mine. Each mineclan was an autonomous
entity, but all mineclans worked together for the greater good of the planet. (SWJ13)
Minehold
this was the name of a family-owned mining operation on the planet Averill. Before the New Order, many mineholds existed, with each
family inheriting the mine through succeeding generations. When the Empire subjugated Averill, the individual mineholds were
nationalized into a monopolistic entity. (SWJ13)
Minelayer
this Imperial ETR-3 escort transport was destroyed by the Azzameen family during their attempt to acquire a spy satellite, shortly before
the Battle of Endor. (XWA)
Miner's Horror
this immense creature was first discovered 5,000 years before the Battle of Yavin by a group of pirates who stumbled upon a specimen.
Their distress calls were almost ignored, and the only ship to respond found a holed wreck and a number of unusual creatures. The
crew managed to kill one and return with it, and subsequent encounters have been quickly investigated. Measuring more than 20
meters in length when fully-grown, the miner’s horror resembled a huge, segmented mollusk with several large spines sticking out from
its back. Their heads are dominated by a single, immense eye, and their mouths are filled with saw-like teeth which can dig through
solid rock. They exist in the hard vacuum of space, floating from asteroid to asteroid to obtain food. They grind up any rocks they locate
into digestible pieces, and a single miner’s horror has been documented to consume an entire asteroid field over the course of several
decades. Despite their fearsome appearnce, they are slow-moving, and can be avoided. (COG)
Miner's Town
located on Mon Gazza, this was the town that grew to support the miners who worked in the planet's spice mines. (RAC)
Mineral Exploiter
these starships, developed by the Hutts under the auspices of the Orko SkyMine corporation, were designed to process the ores found
in asteroids. These huge, boxy ships were simply huge cargo ships which were connected to mouth-like scoops. The scoops collected
asteroids and held them in place while turbolaser emplacements blasted the asteroids to rubble. The throat of the Exploiter then sifted
the rubble for the more precious ores, sending them to processing units that formed them into ingots. The useless material was
discarded. They were designed by Bevel Lemelisk, who had been captured by Durga the Hutt for the purpose of designing a
superweapon the Hutts could use to control the galaxy. Unfortunately, he designed them too well, for the first two devoured each other,
thinking that the ores they each contained were found in regular asteroids. (DS)
Minestra
this Rendili StarDrive light corvette was part of Drea Renthal’s pirate fleet. It had been captured from a skirmish with Imperial forces and
modified to have concussion missiles and ion cannons to supplement the normal laser turrets. Renthals’ distinctive blazing claw insignia
was obvious on both sides of the ship. The Minestra, along with the Too Late Now, destroyed the Vigilance during the early hours of the
Battle of Nar Shaddaa. (THG)
Ming, Callista
a Jedi Knight from Chad III, she grew up with her family on an ocean ranch, migrating on the Algic Current with the herds of tsaelke.
When she accepted the assignement to intercept and disable the Eye of Palpatine, she and her lover, Geith, were unable to completely
eliminate the threat of the ship. So, Callista decided to stay behind and try to disable the ship while Geith returned to get more help.
When Geith was killed during his escape attempt, Callista sacrificed her physical body and left her Force-aura in the ship's automated
firing computer. When Luke Skywalker, Cray Mingla, and Nichos Marr rediscovered the Eye, Callista fired on them, thinking that they
were Imperial troops come to recover the ship. Then, Irek activated the ship's remote controls, re-initiatiing its original mission. Callista
was unable to determine the causes, but she was able to sense Luke's string Force-presence when he was brought on board. She
helped him rescue Cray and Nichos, but refused Luke's attempts to store her consciousness in a computer. However, when Cray
decided to stay behind and detonate the ship, she gave Callista her own physical body. Callista escaped the Eye, but she could not
longer touch the Force. So, while she loved Luke, she felt that they could not be together forever. The two tried everything they could
think of to help her regain her Force sensitivity, but she only succeeded in finding the Dark Side. She vowed that, if the Dark Side was
all she could touch, then she wanted nothing to do with the Force. This opened a rift between herself and Luke, which widened with
each failure. When the Jedi Academy on Yavin 4 was attacked by Admiral Daala's fleet, Callista took matters into her own hands, and
set out to strike a blow against the Empire, even without the abilities of the Force. She commandeered a TIE Bomber and landed on the
Knight Hammer, quickly sabotaging the ship's complement of TIE Bombers to detonate their payloads and rip out the Super-class Star
Destroyer's engines. She then went to confront Daala, allowing the Dark Side to wash over her as she tried to kill Daala. Daala
succeeded in stunning Callista, while the Knight Hammer plunged into the core of Yavin. Callista was not killed when the ship exploded,
however. She recovered, and escaped in one of the command-level emergency pods. She fled the New Republic and Luke, setting out
to break through the barrier of the Dark Side in order to recover her powers. She felt that she needed to do this herself, and sent a final
message to Luke, asking him to understand. Her travels led her to Nam Chorios, where she was drawn into the web of Taselda and
Beldorion the Hutt. She tried to learn about the Force from both former Jedi, but was unable to truly regain her power. Taselda enslaved
her with the promise of returned strength, using Callista to strike at Beldorion. After escaping the old woman, Callista realized that she
was trying too hard to restore her Force sensitivity. She felt that this would lead herto the Dark Side, so she allowed herself to become
Beldorion’s slave as well. This fear - the fear of falling into the Dark Side completely - was what kept Callista from rejoining Luke. She
came to understand the strange relationship between the Force in the Spooks and the Therans, and joined one of their troops in
working to keep the drochs from leaving the planet. It was Callista who re-initiated Leia Organa-Solo’s lightsber training, while they
were spending time in a Theran camp. After the defeat of Dzym and Seti Ashgad, Callista again fled Luke, joining Umolly Darm and Be’
as rock ivory hunters until she found her way in the Force. (COJ, DS, POT, SWJ14)
Mingla, Cray
a beautiful woman, Cray also happened to be one of the galaxy's foremost innovators in artificial intelligence during the early years of
the New Republic. She was also somewhat adept in the use of the Force, having attended Luke Skywalker's academy on Yavin 4. Tall,
slim, and energetic, Cray's expertise in AI earned her a doctorate at the Magrody Institute. She fell in love with Nichos Marr, and the two
were engaged when they arrived at Yavin 4 for Jedi training. When Nichos was diagnosed with Quannot's Disease, Cray worked
feverishly to create a cyborg body for him. She delved into the Ssi-ruuk entechment techniques, but could not completely recover his
humanity. She continued to strive to make Nichos a better "man." (COJ)
Mingla, Margolis
Cray's mother, she never manifested any power with the Force. Her mother was strong with the Force, as is her daughter, Cray. (COJ)
Mini-detonator
any small, hand-held detonation device which can be thrown at its target. (AS)
MiniLab
this portable testing device provides quick, though not often accurate, chemical and biological analysis of substances found in the field
by scouts and explorers. (GG8)
Mining Barque
designed and built by Trilon, Incorporated, this mobile mining vehicle was quite common among scouts and explorers who also did their
own mining. At 80 meters in length, the Mining Barque can carry six miners and has a cargo hold which can contain up to 1,000 cubic
meters of ores. Specialized sensor arrays allow its crew of three to search out precious and semi-precious metals and minerals from
orbit, and the ship's holds are equipped with testing and processing systems to ensure only the high-quality products are retained. The
Barque is hyperspace-capable, and, although it was minimally shielded, it was armed with a turbolaser and a heavy mining laser. Of
course, the mining laser was designed to cut through rock and exposed the ores below. However, several less reputable scouts have
taken to landing their Barque on a competitor's ship and using the mining laser to cut it open. (GG8)
Mining Crawler
this huge machine is similar to the Jawa Sandcrawler, and performed the function those sandcrawlers were designed to perform. They
blast up large pieces of rock and draw it into huge processing facilities within its structure. The processed ore is stored for later delivery
to a central collection center, while the scree is simply dumped out. (SWJ8)
Mining Droid
large, stocky droids used in the spice mines of Kessel to collect the spice hidden there. They are green in color. (GDV)

Minos Cluster
a collection of planetary systems at the edge of the known galaxy, it is a fairly safe haven for the galaxy's outcasts. There are over 70
planets in the Cluster which could sustain life, although humans have only settled 10 primary worlds. Much of the Cluster’s native
sentient life remains in the stone age. (GG6, SWAJ)
Minos-Mestra Corporation
originally formed by VernanGroup, this mining and large-scale manufacturing corporation grew into a galaxy-wide megacorporation
during the last century of the Old Republic. Its primary source of raw materials is the Mestra System’s asteroid field, to which the
corporation holds ownership rights. However, as the Republic began to rot from within, VernanGroup’s fortunes began to wane. The
Minos Cluster fell into economic depression as Palpatine assumed the Presidency, and VernanGroup was forced to sell its shares to
local investors. Since the institution of the New Order, Minos-Mestra has become driven by short-term profits at any cost. Miners are
abused in order to obtain more ore, and security is tight. The need for security helped create a new branch of the corporation, providing
police, emergency services, and armed forces to the Mestra System. Primary headquarters for the corporation are located on
Shesharile 5, while a local office is found on Javis-12. (GG6)
Minntaa
this planet was under Imperial control for several months before the Alliance was able to break its grasp. The planet was held under the

before goosing her racer, the Wraith, into a higher gear and passing them at the finish line. (WSV)
Miraluka
a race native to the planet Alpheridies, they are born without eyes. However, through the use of the Force, they can see as well as any
sighted race. They original Miraluka migrated to Alpherides several millennia before the Great Sith War, fleeing a planet which was
geologically and tectonically unstable. Their innate abilities with the Force were brought to the forefront as genetic mutations brought on
by Abron's infrared radiation eliminated their eyes. Very few Miraluka ever left the Alpherides, choosing not to disrupt their equilibrium.
(FNU, TOJC)
Miramba
this large, blue-skinned humanoid replica droid was used by Gru'um Ropple to transport frekkers into Jabba the Hutt's palace on
Tatooine. Miramba was covered with an organic layer, which allowed her to pass through Jabba's sensors. She was programmed to
appeal to the Hutt, laughing at his jokes and lavishing him with praise. After Bib Fortuna had Gru'um arrested, Gru'um had Miramba
open her internal section and release the frekkers into the palace. It is unknown if she survived the Hutt's fury after realizing what
Gru'um Ropple had planned. (JTH)
Miranda
this K-Wing pilot was a member of the Fifth Battle Group, and was in line with Hodo for promotion to squadron commander. However,

discuss a possible contact for locating the Katana fleet. (DFR)
Mishtak
an alien race. (SOP)
Misik
this Imperial Corporal was the son of a diplomat from the planet Tatooine. He joined the Imperial Academy and was known for his crack
shot and skill with a speeder bike. After graduation, he was assigned to a scouttrooper squadron, and was eventually posted to the
teams protecting the shield generator on the forest moon of Endor, during the construction of the second Death Star. He was adept at
developing new speeder bike tactics, often working with Sergeant Barich, and hoped to one day join the Emperor's Demonstration
team. (CCG10)
Misnor
this moon is the homeworld of the Chiilak species. (COG)

escort during the Bright Hope's escape from Hoth. (CCG9)
Missa
this young woman was taken prisoner when the Free Lance ambushed her own ship, the Indupar Nova, near Ec Pand. It was revealed
that she was a maid who served Lady Kalena, although the two had switched positions when the pirates attacked. Urias Xhaxin took
both women prisoner, for later use in ransoming them off. (PP)
Missile Boat
designed by then-Admiral Thrawn during the Galactic Civil War, the missile boat was a modified Cygnus Spaceworks assault gunboat.
15 meters in length, the missile boat was given a SLAM overdrive for quick bursts of power, a single laser cannon, 4 missile launchers,
and up to 80 concussion missiles. The ship could achieve sublight speeds of 125 MGLT, and was protected by 120 SBD shields and a
20-RU hull. Many Imperial pilots denounced the new ship, saying that it was not very maneuverable in a dogfight, although it was
deadly from long-range. (TIE)
Missile Tube
any land-based weapon which carries and fires short- and long-range proton or concussion missiles. (HSR)
Mission Commander
the title given to the ruling member of the Survivor group on Dellalt. He is charged with strengthening the beacon, in hopes that the High

Mist
this bounty hunter was known as a violent, capable individual, although he very rarely appeared in public. Mist began working in Kathol
Sector shortly before the Battle of Endor, but was driven underground by the appearance of Moff Sarne. When Sarne fled the New
Republic's warships, Mist began showing up again, although his operations were somewhat questionable. Mist is best known for the
heavily-modified suit of Krail 1010 photo-reactive armor he wore. He was hoping to find Sarne and capture him, with the intent of
extorting what he felt was just compensation for having been left hanging when Sarne fled. Shortly afterward, Mist encountered an alien
construct deep within the Kathol Rift, and soon discovered a piece of the DarkStryder technology. He learned how to control a
DarkStryder fire creature, and attempted to defeat the crew of the FarStar with this newfound power. He was defeated aboard the alien
construct, and forced to flee before the firepower of the FarStar. (KO, KR)
Mist Hunter

cannon. Lu’daal-ud obtained the ship after capturing its owner in the Imberlin System. (AIR)
Mistal
a Duchess from Dargul. When she came of marrying age, she began a widespread search for the perfect mate. All candidates had their
credentials entered into a computer, and she would marry the one the computer chose. Dack Tymmo sabotaged the results of all the
candidates in order to make himself into the "perfect mate," and they were married. Unfortunately for Dack, Mistal is a very affectionate
person, and she couldn't bear to be away from him. She did not give him any free time, and so Dack fled to Umgul in an effort to
escape her. Mistal offered a million-credit reward for Dack's return, which Lando was able to obtain when he apprehended Tymmo at a
blob race. Mistal was grateful to Lando from that point on. (JS)

Mistryl Warrior
well-muscled, female warriors from the planet Emberlene, the Mistryl were personally commissioned by the Eleven Elders of the People
to protect and defend not only Emberlene but other down-trodded peoples as well. Any pay the Mistryls acquired was returned to
Emberlene, in order for the native population to purchase the necessities of life. The Mistryl were turned against the Empire after they
were told of the Empire's part in the destruction of Emberlene. Although they sometimes worked for the Empire in order to obtain funds,
they never aligned themselves with Palpatine's forces. At their heart, the Mistryl worked with every opportunity to exact some form of
revenge on the Empire for its part in Emberlene's destruction, although most never knew that the Empire had nothing to do with the
devastation of the planet. (COTF, TME, SOP, VOF)

Miy'til Fighter
this Hapan starfighter is a short, sleek craft measuring just over seven meters in length. The bat-shaped design has the cockpit and
engines mounted between two forward-sweeping wings. The craft's small size means that the Hapan engineers had to miniaturize
many of its components. Each wing is tipped with an ion cannon, and a triple blaster cannon sits just beneath the cockpit. The Miy'til
employs an R2 astromech droid to assist with in-flight operations and navigation. The Miy'til fighter is propelled by four Incom 6X4 fusial

this humanoid race was native to the planet Randorn 2. (COG)
Mk II Smartgunner
this form of "intelligent" weapons control chip was developed during the early years of the New Republic, although they were never
really mass-produced. These "smart chips" allowed weapons to aimed and fired automatically, greatly reducing the need for gunners on
a starship. Jorkatt the Render and Vohrkrewel Yahrkar tried to swindle Octavius Jupiter Scragg out of a huge pile of credits by selling
him faked versions of these chips, but Yahrkar's personal droid discovered they were false and returned them. (POC)
MK x/S
this was a series of modular weapon which could be mounted on a vehicle. The various configurations were denoted by number (Mk
1/S, Mk 2/S, etc.) to denote the power of the weapon. Depending on needs, the Mk series could be mounted as a medium or heavy
blaster cannon, a light or medium laser cannon, or a grenade launcher. (MBC)
Mk xe/S

denoted by power (Mk 1e/S, Mk 2e/S, etc.). These weapons boasted increased power and accuracy. (MBC)
Mk 45
this was the model number of one of Koromondain's protective armor vests. (GG10)
MK 8001
this attendant droid was designed and manufactured by AccuTronics. Humanoid in design, it was the first in a long series of "family-
oriented" automata produced during the military era of the Galactic Civil War. Its primary programming gave it the capability to guard
and care for the young or infirm, and it could provide limited medical attention in emergency situations. (SWJ13)
MK-series Droid
built by Kalibac Industries, the MK-series droids were designed for general maintenance operations. They rolled along on two wide
treads, and their stout bodies gave them a low center of gravity. The MK-series had a pair of manipulator arms, and a sensor-studded
head mounted on an extendable pivot arm. (XWA)
MK-09
this MK-series maintenance droid was owned by the Azzameen family, and performed regular duties aboard the freighters of the Twin
Suns Transport Service. Known to the family as Emkay, this droid was modified to be able to fix and repair, as well as fly, the
Azzameen's freighters. The extent of this additional programming has altered his personality circuits, and Emkay became quite
aggressive toward other droids. He often went looking for a fight with the other automata serving Twin Suns, and the Azzameen began
planning to adjust his aggression circuits. (XWA)
MK-3
Borstel's ion cannon. (XW)
MK221
this silver-plated attendant droid had served the N'Vaari family for five generations, and was owned by Brinaloy N'Vaari during the
height of the New Order. MK221 was decidedly silent about her disappearance, citing its loyalty to the N'Vaari's and Brinaloy in
particular. Known as "Emmy-Kaye" to the family, MK221 was programmed to be a nanny and personal assistant. (ND)

Moegid
this introverted Verpine was one of the few who chose not to go into space and explore the gaalxy beyond the Roche asteroid field. He
felt starships were death-traps, a view which ostracizxed him from his hove. However, after he deciphered the data from a damaged
Imperial probe droid and turned it over to the Alliance, he ralized that he was destined to be a codebreaker. He joined the Alliance,
which set him up with top-of-the-line computer equipment, and never looked back. His expertise with Imperial codes was impressive,
having decoded over 4,000 separate ciphers. He became a friend and business associate of Lobot in the years after the death of Grand
Admiral Thrawn. He later helped Lobot when Han Solo and Lando Calrissian attempted to locate a copy of the Caamas Document on

Mohc, Rom
an Imperial General serving the Empire during the early days of the Galactic Civil War. Mohc, like Tarkin and other Imperial leaders,
had a private scheme in mind to help crush the Alliance and gain favor with the Emperor. Mohc opposed the creation of the first Death
Star, believing it took away from the skill on one-on-one combat. Mohc's plan called for the created of a group of specially-enhanced
stormtroopers - known as Dark Troopers - which he would use to annihilate the Alliance. His plans were thwarted, however, when
Katarn's Commandos, as part of Operation Skyhook, discovered Mohc's plans and eliminated the Dark Troopers. (DF)
Mohs
an older member of the Toka living on Rafa IV, Mohs is in actuality the High Singer of the Toka. This allowed Mohs access to the Sharu
legends, which he kept alive through various songs and chants used by the Toka people. He finds Lando Calrissian in the Spaceman's
Rest, and agrees to help him find the Mindharp. Mohs, feeling that Lando is an imposter and not really the Bearer of the Key, tries to
steal the Key from Lando a number of times, only to have Lando recover it each time.
When the secret of the Mindharp is revealed to Lando, he learns that Mohs is actually a member of the Sharu race, and the only
member of his generation allowed to know most of the truth about the Toka and the Sharu. Mohs does not know what forced the Sharu
into hiding as the Toka. He was about to pass on his knowledge to a new High Singer, when Lando arrived on Rafa IV. (LCM)
Moiss, Ensil
this government official was known more for his ability to criticize the work of others than his own accomplishments. Moiss worked for

Mole
this person fled the service of Darth Vader just prior to the Battle of Hoth. This angered Vader, who sent Boba Fett in pursuit of the
Mole. The Mole had fled to Ota, hoping to hide from Imperial forces. There, the Mole encountered Han Solo and Chewbacca, and he
saved the Wookiee from a snow snake attack. Fett discovered the Mole on Ota, and tried to capture him. The attempt was thwarted by
the appearance of the Snogars, who captured them all. In a daring escape, the Mole used a huge magnetic generator to pin Fett
against a wall while making his escape. This also allowed Solo and Chewie to escape. (CSWEA, EGC)
Mole miners
this blunt-cone-shaped, two-man vehicle was built the by Slayn & Korpil company that manufactured the B-Wing. Each mole miner is
equipped with plasma-jet drills used to bore through the outer layers of an asteroid to obtain the elements inside it. Lando Calrissian
used them to mine ores on Nkllon. Each mole miner measured about 7 meters in length. (HTTE, HTSB)
Molecular Hooks
this is a method of attaching two objects, most often used with suits of protective armor. Two objects - such as a datapad and the suit
itself - can be attached at the molecular level by turning on a small field generator that links specific areas together by twisting and
turning certain molecules on tiny plates. The bond is not incredibly strong, but allows for quick storage and retrieval. (GG8)
Molecular Shielding
used on the Balmorran Viper Automadon, molecular shielding absorbs the energy from opponent's weapons and re-routes it into the
Viper's own weapons system. (DE2)
Molecular Stiletto
this form of knife is similar to a lightsaber in that it can cut through almost anything. However, it is also incredibly delicate. It cannot be
swung or thrust with much force, or the thin blade will break. Molecular stilettos work best when used with deliberation and care. (SOP)
Molecularly-bonded Armor
this dense armor is created by bonding metals at the subatomic level. Texture-molding tractor fields hold the metal in place while it is
just barely surface-liquefied. The hot metal surface is then bombarded with charged particles that increase its bonding strength and
resiliency. (CSA)

Molly's Merchants
this collection of electronic forgers, slicers, and infochants was based on Cloud City at the time when Bespin Motors decided to split
from Incom Industries. The executives of Bespin Motors contacted the Merchants and paid them to adulterate Corporate Sector records
to funnel credits into Bespin Motors' accounts. Then, Bespin Motors used the funds to buy their independence from Incom. (GG2)
Moltok
this planet is the homeworld of the Ho'Din, located in the Dartibek System. Despite the fact that it is one of the system's inner-most
planets, Moltok is an oxygen-rich world of violent volcanic eruptions. It is speculated the the ash thrown up by these volcanoes keeps
the solar radiation from reaching the planet's surface. The stable landmasses support lush rain forests, although the planet has steep
axial tilt that makes the polar icecaps extremely cold for most of the year. (GG4)
Momaw Mowadan
this Ithorian served as the doctor who managed the Kuari Princess's infirmary. (RM)
Momaw Nadon
an Ithorian who was banished from his homeworld, Momaw Nadon has seen the highs and lows of life. As the leader of the Ithorian
floatin city Tafanda Bay, he ruled over the best of life's offerings. He was free to maintain the ecological relationship with the Mother
Jungle while influencing his race. A chance meeting with an Imperial Star Destroyer which was trying to nail down smuggling routes
changed his life, however. The Imperials tried to take the Ithorians' horticultural knowledge, and threatened Momaw Nadon. He was
forced to either give up his race's secrets or have the planet razed. He chose to give up some agricultural secrets rather than destroy
the planet, and was banished from Ithor forever. Thus, Momaw Nadon became a freelance spy for the Alliance. He was in the Mos
Eisley cantina when Obi-Wan and Luke were searching for passage to Alderaan. He is eagerly awaiting the next Ithorian Herd Meet, to
rejoin his friends and relatives in spite of the Imperial orders. When the Alliance defeated Palpatine at Endor and restored the Republic,
the Imperial directive against him was lifted, and he returned to Ithor to again lead the Tafanda Bay. He later greeted Wedge Antilles
and Qwi Xux when they visited Ithor. He is now accompanied by two young human boys: clones of the Imperial agent who threatened
him all those years ago, reborn to serve as revenge against the Empire. (SW, SCRE, DA, CCG)
Momship
this is the name used by the Squibs to describe their reclamation ships. (SH)
Mon, Sol
this huge, heavily-muscled man was a pirate who worked for Grappa the Hutt, during the early years of the New Republic. Mon dark
skin and dreadlocks made him an unmistakable figure. Sol Mon and his forces were dispatched by Grappa to intercept Captain Forma
and recover the cargo he carried. (CE2)
Mon Calamari
1) another name for the planet Calamari (JASB)
2) a bipedal, amphibious race, the Mon Calamari share the same homeworld as the Quarren. Many xenobiologists believe the Mon
Calamari are descended from squid, but evolved a more humanoid appearance than the Quarren. The males have salmon-colored
skin, lobed heads, and protruding eyes. The females are more streamlined, with olive-colored markings on their salmon skin. The Mon
Cal, as they are often called, are shore-dwellers, land creatures who prefer to to live near the water. Early Mon Cal civlizations fed on
the creatures they found in the shallows, and developed an advanced aquaculture system. When they discovered the Quarren - the
other intelligent race on Calamari, who live in the ocean deeps - the two races combined to create a symbiotic society in which both
races flourished. Together, they built the huge floating cities that populated Calamari's oceans. Unlike the Quarren, the Mon Cal desired
to travel to the stars, and began experimenting with space flight. Their first starships were quite successful, but their dreams of a
peaceful life in space was cut short. As with most other alien races, the Mon Cal were simply exploring the galaxy when they were
discovered by the Empire. They were quickly put on Palpatine's list of races to subjugate. However, the Mon Cal were one of the few
races that put up a fight in the face of certain doom. The normally-peaceful Mon Cal learned quickly from the tactics of the Imperial
invaders, and were able to drive them off. This solidified the Mon Cal psyche, and they decided to join the Alliance and overthrow
Palpatine's New Order. After serving the Alliance at the Battle of Endor, the Mon Cal have continued to be persecuted by the remnants
of the Empire. Calamari was the first place the reborn Palpatine took his World Devastators, and was later attacked by Admiral Daala,
in an attempt to show her superiority. The Mon Cal, along with Quarren and the New Republic, have driven back all attempt to take the
planet. (ROTJ, DE1, DA, SWSB, GG4, GOF8)

Zsinj. It was part of the group dispatched to Comkin Five, and was able to track the Iron Fist until it jumped into hyperspace as soon as
the Reprisal was destroyed. (SOC)
Mon Gazza
this world is known for its production of minerals and ores, as well as a healthy industry mining spice. During the last decades of the Old
Republic, Mon Gazza was second only to Kessel in its annual production of spice. Although the planet had been overrun with gangsters
and spice-pushers, Mon Gazza nonetheless boasted a healthy economy in an otherwise industrial wasteland. Podracing was
introduced along the streets and mining roads as a way to entertain the workers, and grew into an industry all its own. Racers were
forced to travel along mining roads, avoiding machinery before flying through abandoned mineshafts and around broken equipment.

this Mon Calamari MC80 cruiser was smaller than the Mon Remonda, but served as part of the fleet commanded by Han Solo and
dispatched to hunt down Warlord Zsinj. (SOC)
Mon Remonda
an MC80b Mon Calamari Star Cruiser delivered to the New Republic following the Battle of Endor. It was placed under the command of
Han Solo, and was used to battle the warlord Zsinj. Solo and the ship's Captain, a Mon Calamari named Onoma, pursued Zsinj across
the edges of the Warlord's holdings, hoping to catch him unaware. Instead, they often led be Zsinj to a world he wanted for himself, but
didn't want to expend resources to take. When the Mon Remonda pummeled certain facilities, it left them vulnerable to Zsinj's takeover.
It was later destroyed in battle with the World Devastator Silencer-7 when the reincarnated Emperor Palpatine started his campaign
against the New Republic. All hands were lost, but not before the Mon Remonda took out an Imperial-class Star Destroyer. (CPL, DE1,
EGV, IF)
Mon Torri
this snow-covered planet was located between Ord Mantell and Tatooine. It had seven distinct rings surrounding it, each ring a different

Money Lane
an unmarked area within the sights of a laser cannon which fighters often use to denote those kills which require more skill. Han Solo
and Chewbacca had agreed upon the money lanes suited to the Millennium Falcon's quad-laser cannons, and often made bets on their
shooting abilities, with double-scores for those kills in the money lane. The Falcon's money lane was the area of overlap around the
edge of the ship's saucer, where both quad-laser cannons could fire. (HSR)
Moneyland
an unofficial name given to the planet Muunilinst. (SOP)
Mongei Shai
this ancestor of Shedao Shai was one of the first Yuuzhan Vong warriors to visit the known galaxy, some fifty years before the start of
their invasion along Vector Prime. He was killed on Bimmiel by a pack of slashrats, and his remains were mummified in a cave until
their discovery by Doctor Anki Pace. Shedao Shai himself returned with the second wave of Yuuzhan Vong invaders, but was defeated
at Dantooine before he could reach Bimmiel. He later traveled to Bimmiel, but was unable to locate Mongei Shai's remains, primarily
because the magnetic field of Bimmiel had shifted, altering the coordinates at which his remains lay in wait. (DTO)

sabacc match with the Teltior conman Ceezva. (AE)
Monnda Tebbo
this Duro once served as the navigator for the spice smuggling ship Ill Wind. While aboard the ship, he learned everything he could
about smuggling from a Corellian navigator named Sumok. Sumok also gave Tebbo information on how to reach the Alliance, should
he ever need help. Shortly afterward, the Ill Wind was caught by an Imperial fleet near Uogo'Cor and damaged. Sumok died in the
battle, and the ship lost all power. Tebbo’s quick thinking allowed him to obtain some measure of control of the tumbling ship, and he
managed to use the shields as brakes to get the ship on the ground. After landing, the crew had to hide from Imperial patrols for four
days before being rescued by the Alliance. Tebbo and the entire crew joined the Alliance, and Tebbo was assigned navigational duties
aboard the Flurry. His skills with the Quasar Fire-class ship made an a valuable advisor, and he was dispatched to the Virgillian System
to help the newly-formed Virgillian Free Alignment learn how to fly them. Unfortunately for the Alliance, Tebbo was killed when the
Flurry was destroyed at the Battle of Bakura. (TBSB)
Monnok
this Soccorran predator is known for its ability to maintain the hunt over the planet's ash-covered deserts. Many Soccorran hunters
admire and respect the monnok's abilities, and Soccorran smugglers consider it good luck to see a monnok before beginning a voyage.
The monnok is a tall, semi-sentient humanods with yellowish skin, and they have developed a rudimentary use of tools. Chewbacca
had a holographic monnok on his holochess board aboard the Millennium Falcon. (CCG2, BSS)

fragile. (TFE)
Monor II
this Outer Rim world is located in the Monor System, which is part of the Doldur Sector. It is the homeworld of the Sunesu race, which
have evolved with the ability to breathe Monor's otherwise deadly atmosphere. From space, Monor II appears to be a huge pearl with a
changing nacreous coating. The pearlescence is due to the thick layer of cirrifog that fills the atmosphere. Cirrifog is toxic to most
humanoids. The planet was originally discovered by Eujustus Kline, who was an explorer working for the Solgg Chemical Company.
Thus, the planet is often referred to as Kline Colony. The average day on the planet lasts 28 standard hours, and its year lasts 378 local
days. Nom Anor later revealed that he had infected Mara Jade Skywalker with coomb spores on this planet, during the ascension of
Agapos the Tenth. (SWJ10, BP)
Monotheer, Edallia
this woman was Gara Petothel's mother. She was born on Coruscant, and trained to be an actress. She caught the eye of Armand
Isard, who trained her to be an Intelligence agent. She eventually married Dalls Petothel, but both of them were arrested for supposedly
funneling secret Imperial information to rebel forces on the planet Chandrila. New Republic analysis of her files indicated she had never
had any contact with the Alliance. An old man mistakenly thought Lara Notsil was Edallia, during a Wraith Squadron visit to the Galactic
Museum, which tipped off Garik Loran to Lara's true identity. The old man had been one of Edallia's former teachers. (SOC)
Monsail
an alien creature native to the planet Trinta, the monsail was a predatory fish with a horizontally flattened body, a large dorsal fin, and a

was a passenger on the Kuari Princess when it was hijacked by the Riders of the Maelstrom. (RM)
Montellian Serat
an ancient Devaronian city dating back before the Devaronians had space travel. After the birth of the Empire, the Devaronian
supporters of the Alliance used it as a stronghold, until they were routed by the Devaronian Army. The army was under the control of
Kardue’sai’Malloc, and he gave the order to execute over 700 Devaronians after corenering them in the city. This act earned him the
nickname “The Butcher of Montellian Serat.” (TME)

skylight in their roof which allowed Weequay priests to track the moon's progress during this month. (SSR)
Monument
this huge Corellian barge was part of a fleet which transported workers to and from the planet Bandomeer. Scarred from years of
usage, the ship nonetheless continued to make regular runs to the planet. It was aboard the Monument that Obi-Wan Kenobi and Si
Treemba discovered early signs of Offworld Mining Company’s sabotage against Arcona Mineral Harvest Corporation. The ship was
then attacked by pirates and torn apart in the fighting. (RF)

Moondrake
this old YT-1300 was owned and operated by Sassan Sareeta. Built from the parts of three separate YT-1300 hulks, it was
distinguished by the lack of a starboard cargo mandible, which had been replaced by a huge double laser cannon. Also notable to this
ship, the cockpit is mounted in between the port mandible and the laser cannon. (SWJ8)
Moonflower Nebula
located in the Outer Rim Territories, this nebula can be found just past the K-749 System. This nebula was of little interest until Nichos
Marr generated its coordinates when he tried to access the Force with his artificial brain. Luke Skywalker took the random numbers and
determined their exactness, and took the Huntbird to investigate the Nebula. (COJ)
Moonglow
this pear-like fruit comes from a single grove of trees in a certain forest on a small satellite world. It is a rare and exotic fruit, although it
is more like a fungus. Its crisp, delicious flesh, however, is extremely poisonous in its raw form. A single slice contains enough poison to
kill 1,000 beings within a minute, and there is no known antidote. There is a unique, ninety-seven step method of preparing the
moonglow which removes the poison and makes it edible. A chef must spend at least two years learning the technique from a Master
Chef before they can obtain a license to prepare it themselves. Restaurants which choose to serve moonglow must display their own
license, which indicates to patrons that the chefs who work there have been trained in the preparation. All of this licensing and training
is necessary because, if one step is omitted or performed in error, the entire process is forfeit, and the moonglow retains its toxicity.

Moonrunner, Artis
this woman was Lorn Moonrunner's wife, and Denel's mother. Like Lorn, she had her appearance altered when they fled from the
Empire and settled on Rhamalai. She was terrified that, when the Empire subjugated the planet, they would be discovered. However,
the family was able to make it to their hidden starship, the Refugee, and escape. (SWJ13)
Moonrunner, Denel
the son of Lorn Moonrunner, Denel grew up on Rhamalai on the outskirts of Argona. He was a fair pilot, having been trained by his
father at the controls of their starship, the Refugee. When the Empire subjugated the planet, Denel was consrcripted into the service of
the Civilian Service Personnel. He was soon rescued by Nadra Enasteri and her mother, Charis, but they became separated before
they could reach the Moonrunner residence. Denel and his family managed to escape in the Refugee, but the Enasteri's were stranded
on Rhamalai. (SWJ13)
Moonrunner, Lorn
this man was Denel Moonrunner's father, and was the head of the Fair Value Control Department of Rhamalai's Planetary Trade
Directorate at the time of the Battle of Yavin. However, Moonrunner was not his true name. In reality, he was Corvus Langlier. Lorn was
a fugitive from Imperial justice, who had his appearance altered and a false identity developed so that he could hide. He and his wife,
Artis, settled on the planet Rhamalai and lived in peace with the Cherishites there, believing that the planet was far enough removed
from the rest of the galaxy so as to avoid imperial notice. They hid their ship, the Refugee, in a remote valley, hoping against hope that
they would never have to use it again. When the Empire finally subjugated Rhamalai, Lorn and Artis relied on their facial surgeries to
keep them from being captured. However, their son, Denel, was conscripted into the Imperial armed forces before they could act. After
Denel was rescued by Nadra Enasteri, the Moonrunners fled to the Refugee and managed to escape the planet. (SWJ13)

th
quickly up the Imperial ranks until she was given the command of the 128 TIE Interceptor Squadron shortly before the Battle of Hoth.
However, by this time, Kasan had begun questioning her loyalties. The destruction of Alderaan by the first Death Star was an emotional
blow, for Kasan dearly loved her family and friends who died in the cataclysm. She felt that she could no longer serve a government
th
that would wantonly destroy people for its own ambitions. When the 128 was sent to intercept Rogue Squadron on the planet Gerrard
V, Kasan offered herself and her ship as a defector, and joined the Alliance. (RSG)
Mooren
this man was one of the Ministers who formed the government of the planet Danoor, shortly after the Battle of Endor. He was a

things. They were not native to Varont, but instead traveled to the planet in organic starships of their own creation nearly 1,000 years
before the Old Republic was formed. After their homeworld suffered an ecological disaster, the colony on Varont was left to fend for
themselves. When humans first settled Varont, the Morodin were hunted by the colonists, who thought that the slime trails left in their
vegetable and grain fields were detrimental. However, after seeing the results of the slime's intense nutrients, the colonists began to
allow the Morodin to move through their fields. The creatures created huge, maze-like patterns as they move through the forests, which
they use to confuse their prey as well as their attackers. When the Krish Gamgalon discovered the beneficial effects of their slime on
Yagaran Aleudrupe plants, he began "hunting" them in order to herd them into his aleudrope beds. He paid off the local Imperial Moff
for the rights to "hunt" sentient beings. (SWAJ, EGC, AE)
Morol
this man was the repair expert working at Just Armor on StarForge Station. Morol personally made sure every piece of armor sold was
fitted perfectly to its new owner. (FOP)
Morph
this Polydroxol served as Bruce Mercy’s bodyguard and enforcer. He flew pirate missions with Mercy on the Starburst, along with
Durquist. (TSK)
Morr
this female Defel got started as a bounty hunter by bringing in a trader who had broken his word to several other Defel. She found that
her natural skills as a hunter were more than adequate to make a living in the wider galaxy. (GG10)
Morr III
one of Zothip's base planets. (DFRSB)
Morril
an alien creature native to the planet Trinta, morrils resemble small chipmunks. They are omnivorous, subsisting on plants unless they
can find carrion to feed on. (DOE)
Morrs
this New Republic Lieutenant was placed in charge of the investigation into Kyp Durron's stealing of the Sun Crusher weapon from its
resting place at the heart of Yavin. His survey results were largely insubstantial, because the sheer force of the storms at the planet's
heart wouldn't allow his sensor teams to gather useful data. (IJ)
Morrt
1) furry, gray, mouse-sized parasites from the planet Gamorr, they feed on the blood of a living host. Note that the Star Wars Adventure
Journal #10 indicates that the morrts are slug-like creatures. The Gamorreans have domesticated them and consider them to be pets,
and they have adopted a social ideal which states that the more morrts a Gamorrean has attached to its body, the more status they
have. The highest ranking matrons and warlords have twenty or more morrts attached to their bodies. Morrts found in the wild can be
quite aggressive when they attach themselves to a host, and an entire swarm could bleed a full-grown Gamorrean dry in no time at all.
(SWSB, SWJ10)
2) this was the name of one of the pilots in the Hawk-bat pirate fleet, the alias of Voort saBinring. The pirate alias was used only once,
during the Hawk-bats' participation in Warlord Zsinj's attempt to steal the Razor's Kiss from Kuat Drive Yards. If and when Voort used it,
it was a signal to Garik Loran and the rest of Wraith Squadron that he had "crashed" onto the surface of the Iron Fist. To anyone
listening in, Morrt was dead. Voort, however, used a landing claw to lock onto the huge ship's armor plating and ride with it to wherever
it fled to, after the New Republic intercepted Zsinj at Kuat. After Zsinj's short jump, with the Razor's Kiss slaved to the Iron Fist, the New
Republic again pounded Zsinj's forces, destroying the Razor's Kiss and nearly taking the Iron Fist. (IF)
Morrt-class Droid
developed by Warlord Zsinj and Apwar Trigit shortly after the Battle of Thyferra, these small, parasite droids were distributed throughout
the galaxy. They were designed to intercept signals from virtually any source and relay information about the source to their operators.
The basic Morrt droid resembled a rectangular box, and could attach itself to virtually any surface. The project was initially successful,
allowing Trigit to feed false information to the New Republic and allowed him to destroy Talon Squadron. The second hit came from
Folor, but Trigit attacked the false beacons placed on the moon instead. When Gara Petothel discovered that the Morrts dispatched to
Talasea where attaching themselves to ships which constantly moved in and out of the Morobe System, Apwar Trigit discovered that
the intelligence of the Morrts was too limited to be useful. He canceled further development and abandoned the Morrts. (WS)
Mors Eth

Morsai, Rollo
this woman, whose stage name was Jona Reeten, had her acting career cut short when Babel Torsh took control of the Minos Cluster.
Since that time, she has made a living plying the spacelanes in her converted Baudo-class yacht, the Gilded Lily, a ship which has been
modified over time. She has lost much of her exuberance and drive, and so much of the work aboard the ship gets done by her
assistant, Tiebo. (GG6)
Morseer
this planet, the homeworld of the Morseerian race, was shrouded with a methane-based atmosphere. (TBSB)
Morseerian
a four-armed race of methane-breathing humanoids, Morseerians were native to the planet Morseer. They are easily recognizable by
their large, cone-shaped heads and the breathmasks they wear whenever they are in an atmosphere that lacks sufficient methane. The
Morseerians were a client species to the Drackmarians, and every Morseerian was "owned" or under contract to a Drackmarian master.
(CCG, SSR, TBSB)

Morteos
this man was a native of the planet Nar Bo Sholla. He was known as one of the best freelance assassins, specializing in the
assassination of corporate officials. He is known to have killed one of SoroSuub's top executives, although who hired Morteos remains
a mystery. Morteos was also responsible for the death of Crix Masst on Sinded, and was nearly captured when New Republic pilots
shot at his modified freighter. Despite taking damage, Morteos outran the Y-Wings and disappeared. He was known to wear black
battle armor to hide his true identity, and usually executes his target from a remote location, using bombs, poisons, and other subtle
means. (WBC)

Moruth Doole
a Rybet, leader of the spice-smuggling operation on Kessel. He has one mechanical eye to replace one lost in a struggle with some of
Jabba's hitmen. He bribed and murdered his way to the top of Kessel's operations, and was the primary source of bootleg spice during
the Imperial occupation of Kessel. When Han Solo had to dump a load of spice which Jabba the Hutt had already paid for, Jabba
placed a death mark on Doole's head. One of Jabba's men almost got to Doole, but succeeded only in blinded one of his eyes and
damaging the other. This occurred around the time of Jabba's death and the death of Emperor Palpatine at Endor. Doole, always the
opportunist, sought to free himself from Imperial and get back at Jabba by killing off the prison warden (a man whom Jabba had already
bought) and overthrowing the Imperials. He keeps captive female Rybets for his pleasure, and uses the offspring he sires on them as
slaves in the spice mines. This eventually led to his demise, however, for when Han Solo and Lando Calrissian returned to Kessel to
take over the spice mines following the defeat of Doole's Navy at the hands of Admiral Daala, he tries to escape them, only to be turned
on by his various wives and children. He flees into the mines, where he is attacked and killed an energy spider. (TLC, JS, COTF)
Morv'vyal
this Bothan was an investigator with the Drev'starn Department of Criminal Discouragement. He accompanied Proy'skyn to the
Exocticalia Pet Emporium, on a tip that the store had been burglarized. When a fire broke out in the shop, the Bothans realized that it
was related to the wiring. This led them to discover the hidden cache of weapons kept by Navett and Klif, which forced the humans to
kill the Bothan investigators in order to carry out their plans. (VOF)
Morvak
this unusual creature was able to derive sustenance from rocks and stones. They required neither gravity nor atmosphere for their
survival, which allowed them to live in asteroid belts, which provided abundant sources of food. Resembling large crustaceans, the
average morvak was more than a meter across, and was covered with a heavy exoskeleton. Two pairs of legs allowed it to move, while
a pair of clawed limbs allowed it to dig through rubble. A grouping of tentacles hung from their mouths, and exuded a poweful acid
which the morvak used to break down rock and stone into digestible forms. These tentacles could also give the morvak an indication of
what kind of rock it was burrowing in. When deprived of sustenance, morvaks can go into a form of suspended animation, surviving for
years until discovering a new source of food. Despite their fearsome appearance, morvaks are social creatures which traveled in packs,
working together to repel attackers and locate new sources of minerals. (PG1)
Morvogodine
a planet, located in the Calaron Sector, that was occupied by the Empire during the Galactic Civil War. (TME, REB)
Morymento
this was the largest of the colonies found on Kerilt. Like most of settlements on Kerilt, it lack self-sufficiency, and was a target for
pirates. Morymento was also the home of one of the larger Caamasi Remnant communities. (IJ)
Mos
this ball of searing rock was the first planet in the Dostra System. (AIR)
Mos Eisley
one of the primary cities on Tatooine, it is also home to one of Tatooine's primary spaceports. Mos Eisley grew as spacefaring
companies and individuals realized Tatooine’s proximity to existing spacelanes was advantageous. During much of the Galactic Civil
War, Jabba the Hutt used Mos Eisley as a base of operations. The female Whiphid Valarian also used Mos Eisley as a base, keeping
Jabba at arm's length. Ben Kenobi once described Mos Eisley as "...a...wretched hive of scum and villiany". Following the death of
Jabba, the city was thrown into a raging chaos. Much of the city was burned and/or looted, and for a time Tatooine was isolated from
the major shipping lanes. (SW, GG7, TME, RSG)
Mos Espa
one of the larger townships found on the planet Tatooine, Mos Espa was controlled by Jabba the Hutt during the last years of the Old
Republic. It was a sprawling city built on gambling money, originally settled by a large contingent of Rodians but quickly controlled by
the Hutts. Each year, its surrounding desert was the site of the annual Boonta Eve Classic podrace. The city also was home to a large
contingent of slaves, owned by the merchants and the Hutts. (CCG9, SW1, TPM)
Mos Ethna
this settlement was located on the planet Tatooine, across the Mospic High Range from Mos Espa. (IWE1)
Mos Taike

disrupt the cash flow of Jabba's enemies. (GG12, CCG2)
Mosgoth
a reptilian avian native to the planet Togoria, the mosgoth have been befriended by the Togorians for their mutual protection against the
liphons. The mosgoths allow themselves to be used as mounts. Over the generations, the Togorians established permanent camps to
be near the mosgoths, and they began domesticating mosgoths for use as hunting mounts. (GG4, TPS)
Mosh Pelkan
this Mephitisian crime lord controlled a vast underground network in the city of Gralleenya, on Questal. Pelkan worked from a
penthouse suite in his luxury hotel. The suite was equipped with a series of repuslorlift engines that allowed it to separate from the hotel
and travel around the planet. It was shaped like a crystal mushroom. Pelkan himself was a purple-skinned humanoid who planned to
be a prospector on Questal, hoping to cash in on the ardanium rush there. However, he quickly learned that it was easier to importing
certain illicit goods for sale to other prospectors. His penthouse ship contained a gladiator pit in which he pitted his champion, Cromag,
against challengers often provided by Moff Bandor. His small empire grew quickly during the ardanium boom, but he started seeing a
drop-off in profits when the mines began playing out. (GCQ)
Moshaw Dark Star
this black hole was located on the edge of Sesswenna Sector. (PP)
Moshene Tre
this Rellarin was the Un’Yala of the Cas’ta tribe on Rellnas Minor. He was also a New Republic Observer in charge of patrolling the
sector around Cejansij. It was Tre who intercepted Luke Skywalker on Cejansij and asked him to witness the gatherings in Tranquility
Common, in hopes that the Jedi Master would better understand the galactic situation following the revelation of the Caamas
Document. (SOP)
Mosrk’teck
this alien creature inhabits the swamps of Marca, and has highly-sensitive hearing and smell. The mosrk'teck was a carnivrous
amphibian measuring upwards of two meters in length, and resembling a squashed lizard. These creatures were at the top of the food
chain in the swamps of Marca, hunting in groups of six or more at one time. (POM)
Moss Deevers
this Bothan was known as a two-bit smuggler who lied much better than he smuggled. He worked with a Sullustan side-kick named
Twingo. It was said that, if they actually did one-hundredth of what they claimed, they would be the richest rogues in the galaxy and
would have single-handedly defeated the Empire long before the Battle of Endor. They weren't well-liked by their brethren, especially
after they set the two-man record running through Lando's Folly. (VP)
Moss-hopper

Mother Sea
this was a New Republic frigate. (IF)
Mother's Valkyrie
this starship, belonging to Belezaboth Ourn, was nearly destroyed when the Aradamia tried to lift off from Coruscant. Nil Spaar used the
damaged ship as part of his plan to show how Leia Organa-Solo was keeping him on the planet against his will, thus causing damage
to "innocent bystanders." The ship was later impounded by the New Republic, forcing Ourn to remain on Coruscant. This provided
Spaar with a source of information on the planet, but kept Ourn from being able to leave. (BTS, SOL)
MotherClan
this was the primary governmental body of the Riileb, consisting of those Riileb who were considered the only direct descendants of the
mythical first Riileb. All representatives of the MotherClan were females, with the eldest being the leader and holder of the ClanRing.
(SWJ13)
Mothma, Mon
a native of the planet Chandrila, Mon Mothma grew up in a political environment, as her mother was a governor on Chandrila and her
father was an arbiter-general in the Old Republic. Mon Mothma eventually became the youngest person elected to the Imperial Senate
at that time. (Leia Organa was the youngest ever to be elected.) She was an outspoken representative, who was one of the first
Senators to notice the degeneration of the Old Republic. She was also one of the first to do something about it. Along with Garm Bel
Iblis and Bail Organa, they negotiated the Corellian Treaty following Palpatine's rise to power, and formed the Alliance to Restore the
Republic. She became the leader of the Alliance, and her political savvy made her nearly irreplaceable. How domineering attitude,
however, created tense situations, and led to the departure of Garm Bel Iblis from the Alliance prior to the attack on Milvayne.
Mon Mothma, along with Crix Madine and the Mon Calamarian Ackbar, devised the plans to destroy the second Death Star at Endor,
which eventually succeeded. From that point on, Mon Mothma served as the Chief of State for the New Republic.
While trying to bring more worlds into the New Republic's fold, she was poisoned by Furgan, the ambassador from the still-Imperial
world of Carida. He threw a drink into her face; the drink contained a huge number of carefully-created nanodestroyers which ate away
at Mon Mothma's genetic structure. A timely solution was found, but Mon Mothma no longer felt able to run the New Republic, and she
asked Leia to take over for her. Mon Mothma was portrayed by Caroline Blakiston in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. (ROTJ, HTTE,
COTF, EGC)
Mothra
this Imperial Tax Inspector was a thorn in the side of Roark Garnet. He was a hypochondriac, and any symptom of a cold was shunned
by Mothra at the first chance. Garnet once faked the Merthian Lung Infection in order to scare Mothra away from inspecting a cargo he
was carrying. After being promoted to Associate Governor, Mothra later discovered that the disease didn't exist, and become extremely
vigilant whenever Garnet was in his local area. (SWCP)

meters at the shoulder, and up to 15 meters in length. A single motmot - or mastmot, as some Whiphid tribes call them - can feed a
tribe for a month, and its pelt will provide each family with a tent and jacket. (CPL, SWJ10)
Motoball
this droid locomotion system utilizes a large, round ball as its base. The metallic ball rests underneath a cap which allows the ball to roll
freely while balancing the upper section of the droid over the ball. The system uses tiny repulsors to keep the upper section upright
while the ball is free to roll in complete motion. (OS)
Motosurfing

Mott
this swift-moving, herbivorous creature resembles a small hippopotamus, and is native to the planet Naboo. They have sharp claws and
small horn on the end of their snouts, all of which are used to dig up the delicate flowers of the Naboo plains. Individual motts can be
domesticated, but they often uproot their owner’s gardens. (GF)
Mott, Celis
this famous leader of the Nanth'ri Pirates created a list of "ship's articles" used by pirates everywhere. He was a portly, bearded man
who wasn’t as dashing as he believed himself to be. He kept his eyebrows in the Peluchian style, dyed and trimmed. He suddenly
disappeared, and the Nanth'ri Pirates disbanded soon afterward. It was later learned that Mott had been captured by the Alliance, and
was en route to an Alliance penal colony when the transport ship - the Celestial - was lost in Otherspace. Mott was part of the group,
led by Bane Nothos, that escaped from captivity and took control of the transport, only to be deposited into Otherspace when the ship
tried to jump into hyperspace. Mott was severely affected by the Charon’s red mist, and went mad aboard the huge ship, the Desolate.
Mott was killed when a group of Alliance agents tried to rescue any survivors of the Celestial’s crew, in a firefight aboard the the
Desolate. He hid a substantial treasure on a remote asteroid, which went undiscovered until Marka Durn located it a few years after
Mott's death. (SWAJ, OS, IA)
Motti
this Imperial Admiral was part of Tarkin's support staff, in command the the Navy forces assigned to the first Death Star prior to the
Battle of Yavin. Motti was a strong proponent of the first Death Star's abilities. He once told Darth Vader that he was a "sorcerer", and
that the Force was an ancient religion. For his outburst, Vader nearly choken Motti to death through the Force, hoping to prove to the
Admiral the power of the Force. In the end, Motti was killed when the Death Star was destroyed during the Battle of Yavin. Motti was
portrayed by Richard Le Parmentier in Star Wars, and by David Clennon for the Star Wars Radio Drama on National Public Radio.

Mount Tantiss
hiding place for the development of the Empire's cloaking device and the Emperor's Spaarti cylinders on Wayland. The main purpose
was to protect and preserve the new technologies in case of the Emperor's death. Joruus C’baoth was placed on Wayland to protect
the Imperial interests there, but was unable to maintain control of the world. In the aftermath of Grand Admiral Thrawn’s reign of terror,
C’baoth confronted Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade within its living areas. In the battle of light and dark, Luke and Mara defeated the
clone Luuke Skywalker and C’baoth, but the release of dark-side energy brought much of the mountain down in a huge explosion.
Nearly everything in the storehouse was destroyed. Some years later, a clan of Noghri established a dukha at the foot of Mount Tantiss,
as a reminder of the betrayal their race suffered at the hands of the Empire. (HTTE, TLC, SOP)

MoveSense 34
this top-of-the-line BlasTech motion sensor is often regarded as too sophisticated for its own good. When installed in a tight pattern, the
MoveSense 34 will trigger during a slight breeze. This is due to quiality components, but also to the fact that the MoveSense 34
monitors average air density surrounding it. (CFG)
Movo Brattakin
this tall humanoid ran a criminal organization from a tall spire on Nar Shaddaa. Olag Greck worked with him for some time, prior to the
Galactic Civil War. Brattakin expelled Greck from his organization, and Greck fled to Kalarba. Movo wore a tall, elaborate helmet and
was draped in flowing red robes. He was killed when Olag Greck, trying to return to Nar Shaddaa with a load of stolen ash ore, was
intercepted and disabled by the ship run by Unit Zed, R2-D2, and C-3PO. Greck's ship crashed into the landing bay in Movo's hideout,
killing everyone in the area, including Movo himself. It was later discovered that Movo was able to place his brain inside the cranium of
the droid B-9D7, and was able to continue his plots to overceom Olag Greck and Jace Forno. However, Movo and B-9D7 were
destroyed by Jace Forno when they attempted to discredit Boonda the Hutt. (DRO)

Mrlssi
this avian race was native to the planet Mrlsst. They are short in stature, and walk upright. They have large, black eyes, blunt noses,
and beautifully-colored feathers. However, they are not born with coloration to their feathers. Babies are born with dusky-brown
plumage which developed color with age. They pride themselves on their plumage, and bright, full plumage is often regarded as idyllic.
They are also a tehnologically advanced race, as demonstrated in the creation of the Phantom cloaking device. However, this advance
also brought out the Mrlssti deviousness. They showed themselves to be manipulative and conniving in their dealing with Wedge
Antilles and Rogue Squadron a few years after the Battle of Endor. Note that this species is referred to as Mrlssti in Alien Encounters.
(XWPA, PGT, AE)
Mrlsst
this swamp-covered planet was one of two worlds in the Tapani Sector of the galaxy on which humans were not the dominant species.
After the fall of Emperor Palpatine at Endor, Mrlsst aligned itself with the New Republic. Wedge Antilles and his Rogue Squadron of
X-Wing pilots were escorting a supply convoy to the planet when they were ambushed at Cilpar. This was the homeworld of the Mrlssi
race of avians. The Rogues ended up on Mrlsst again, during the negotiations for the Phantom cloaking device. (XWRS, XWPA)

who ran the worship of the Oneness, and was enslaved at Colony Two. After Muuurgh and Han Solo were able to escape from Colony
One, they rescued Mrrov from Colony Two in a daring escapade. They fled to Togoria, where Mrrov and Muuurgh were eventually
married. They had two cubs, a male and a female, before they rejoined Han and Bria during the Battle of Ylesia. She sustained several
injuries, and lost an eye, in the battle,but was otherwise unharmed. (TPS, RD)
MRX-BR Pacifier
this exploration starship, designed and manufacturer by Sydon Vehicle Works, was so well-armed that it could be classified as a light
fighter. It measured 25 meters in length, and was capable of hyperspace travel. Minimum armament included a pair of proton torpedo
launchers and three laser cannons. During the New Order, it had been the Empire's scout ship of choice, especially when additional
weaponry allowed it quickly subjugate any new worlds it encountered. It required a pilot to fly, and could carry up to three passengers
and 10 cubic meters of cargo. The ship's sensors were capable of counting the leaves on a single tree from orbit, and its weapons
systems were tightly-controlled by the ship's onboard computers. All of this meant that the bat-shaped Pacifier was equally useful as a
contact ship and as an assault vessel. Note that No Disintegrations denotes this craft as the MBR-RX Pacifier. (GG6, GG8, VOF, ND)

MSE-X-PR6
this excentric droid was, at one time, a standard mouse droid assigned to the Imperial research base on Binaros. It was programmed to
shuttle messages between the research personnel, so it's skill matrix was removed and replaced with a volcabulator. The droid's
holographic projector and manipulator arm were removed to allow for several storage spaces for datapads and other objects. Because
of the droid's many modifications, it developed an enjoyment of petty theft and the acquisition of shiny objects. Among the objects MSE-
X-PR6 collected was a thermal detonator and an artifact recovered by the research team from their temple base. (KO)
MSE-15
a series of cleaning droids. (COJ)
MSE-5
this is a general-purpose droid produced prior to the introduction of the MSE-6. (GCQ)
MSE-6
Rebaxan Colmuni's general purpose droid, the MSE-6 was heavily advertised and promoted in over 400 sectors. While many trillions
were sold throughout the galaxy, billions were returned because their emissions were similar to those of various species of pests. The
galaxy generally detested the little droids, and Rebaxan faced bankruptcy. The company ended up selling them to the Empire at a small
loss. The Empire used these small, 10-inch-tall droids to fill the need for cheap, reliable labor. These boxy little droids, known as Mouse
Droids because of their size, were easily programmed to perform class-three tasks, such as message delivery, in nearly every Imperial
outpost, including the Death Star. (ISB, SW, TLC)
MSE-6-E629L
this messenger droid was part of the pool maintained aboard the Iron Fist. It was also one of the first droids reprogrammed by the
astromech Tonin, on the orders of Lara Notsil. MSE-6-E619L often assumed the identity of MSE-6-P303K, which Tonin use for other
purposes. (SOC)
MSE-6-P303K
this messenger droid was part of the pool maintained aboard the Iron Fist. It was also one of the first droids reprogrammed by the
astromech Tonin for subversive activities, on the orders of Lara Notsil. MSE-6-P303K was instrumental in acquiring holocam access to
parts of the ship, as well as obtaining information on the Iron Fist;s schematics. With these schematics, Lara discovered the secret labs

MT-AT
these Mountain Terrain Armored Transports were first introduced by Furgan of Carida during his assault on Anoth. These late-model
Imperial walkers were being tested on Carida at the time. The MT-AT has eight legs with highly-articulated joints, and clawed "feet" that
employ mild explosives to better grip the terrain. It is deployed from a capital ship in a cocoon-shaped drop ship, which protects the MT-
AT by enclosing it in bistate gel. The gel is fluid during descent, which helps dissipate the frictional heat of atmospheric entry. The gel is
hardened by the dropship's droid brain just before impact, cushioning the MT-AT. When the dropship is safely landed, the cocoon
cracks open to allow the MT-AT to emerge. The abdomen of the MT-AT has three sections: a forward cockpit, a middle drive pod, and a
bulbous rearward cargo section. Nicknamed spider walkers, they can climb an almost-vertical mountain face. The body and legs are
studded with laser weapons. (COTF, EGV)

laser cannon. Before each drop, the MT/191 is coated with VACX, which provides an added layer of protection during atmospheric
entry. The VACX is burned off, and needs to be replaced before each drop. It requires a single pilot, but can transport up to 160 troops.
(ISB)
MTT Large Transport
this Baktoid Armor Worskhop Multi Troop Transport (MTT) craft was designed for the Trade Federation’s droid army. Piloted by two
command droids and two co-pilots, the 31-meter-long ship has a bulbous front end which opens to allow the deployment of a full
complement of 112 battle droids, which are carried in folding racks. The MTT stands just over 13 meters tall, and can attain a maximum
ground speed of 35 kph. It is lightly armed, with four 17-kv anti-personnel laser cannons mounted on a pair of turrets at the front of the
craft, but it is heavily armored to protect against attack. Like all Federation craft, the MTT is remotely controlled by an orbiting droid
control ship. (X1, IG1)
Mu-class Shuttle
this series of Imperial troop ships was designed and manufactured by Sienar Fleet Systems. The Mu-class was designed from the basic
form of the Lambda-class shuttle, with the upper wing removed and the fuselage expanded for passenger and cargo space. It
measured 20 meters in length, and was often armed with a pair of laser cannons. The basic Mu-class design could carry up to 6
passengers and 100 metric tons of cargo. Several variants of the basic Mu-class design were developed, each with a different mission
profile. (ROE, OE)
Mu-3 Shuttle
this Sienar Fleet Systems shuttle was the third variant of the successful Mu-class troopship and was created to drop troopers whenever
stealth was not required. It measured 20 meters in length, and was capable of hyperspacial travel. Each Mu-3 shuttle was armed with a
pair of front-mounted laser cannons. (ROE)

Originally owned by Andras Pell under an unknown name, the ship was passed into the possession of Akanah after Pell's death.
Akanah had the ship extensively modified when she began her search for the Fallanassi, stopping on the planet Golkus to allow Talon
Kaarde's people to perform much of the work. Kaarde's technicians added a Smuggler's Kit to the hyperspace transponder, and the
ship's hyperdrive motivator was programmed so that it wouldn't kick in until the ship had cleared a planet's Flight Control Zone. (BTS,

meet with the SELCORE representatives – mainly, Leia Organa-Solo – and discuss possible assistance. Baroness Muehling was
accompanied by her servant Emlee, who was actually Jaina Solo. She later used the Muehling alias to meet with Dassid Cree’ar,
thereby exposing the scientist as the Yuuzhan Vong executor Nom Anor. (BP)
Muftak
a Talz orphaned at Docking Bay 12 of the Mos Eisley spaceport on Tatooine. He grew up among the cantina's regular, local customers,
performing odd jobs to make a living. He always knew that he was different from almost every other race that passed through Mos
Eisley, but he couldn't learn who or what he was. He searched out information from his friend, Momaw Nadon, but Nadon had never
seen a Talz before. In time, Muftak found and adopted the abandoned Chadra-Fan female named Kabe, and the two are nearly
inseparable. Together they are known as pickpockets and thieves, with Muftak providing the brawn, while Kabe provides the brains.
Muftak and Kabe decided to rob Jabba the Hutt's Mos Eisley townhouse just after the Millennium Falcon blasted out of Mos Eisley, and
were rewarded when they were able to rescue a datadot from Barid Mesoriaam, who was being tortured by Jabba for informtion on the
Alliance. Muftak and Kabe barely escaped, but were paid 15,000 credits and a pair of travel vouchers signed by Grand Moff Tarkin.

Muhndee
this form of Nimbanese competition was developed in an effort to avoid all-out warfare. Each Nimbanese clan would present the others
with a puzzle which required complex thinking to solve within a year. These yearly muhndees kept the ancient Nimbanese busy working
on puzzles rather than on weapons and warfar. The development of muhndees over the centuries has given rise to a healthy
bureaucracy among the nimbanese, as each clan has to keep track of the paperwork involved with solving many of the puzzles. There
have also emerged electoral muhndees geared toward determining the best candidates for political positions. (GG12)

Mulako Corporation
this corporation was set up on a huge comet that wandered through an uncharted system every hundred years or so. They stripped the
outer layers of primordial ice off the comet as it passed through its orbit, and distilled it for sale as a gourmet water to self-important
chefs and dignitaries. When the comet neared the star it orbited, it was also used as a resort. The corporation had dug out luxurious
living spaces deep within the comet's core, and opened them to the well-paying public twice each orbit. The first time came as the
comet neared the star; the second came after the comet had passed close to the star and was on its way out of the system. During
these two, three-month periods, the evaporating elements in the comet created a breathable environment for non-workers. When the
comet was close to the star, the environment was too hot and the gases too plentiful. When it passed beyond the star, the comet was
too cold. During these times, the comet is only inhabited by the workers of the Mulako Corporation. (DS)

this small-time smuggler used to dive into the StarForge Nebula to avoid being captured by Old Republic forces, until he finally got tired
of it and established a base on operations on an asteroid in the nebula. The base grew as more and more smugglers and pirates
realized that Glandish had the right idea, and Glandish made a tidy profit skimming profits from the smugglers as "rent." The asteroid
base grew into StarForge Station, and Glandish invested most of his profits into expanding and enhancing the base's facilities. Glandish
was shot and killed by an old enemy who wanted a piece of the action, but Glandish ensured the continued freedom of StarForge
Station by killing the enemy with his own returning fire. His groundwork allowed a succession of leaders and administrators to continue

Muuurgh was assigned as Han’s personal guard. Their relationship grew steadily during Han’s tenure, until both beings trusted each
other. When Han discovered the truth behind Teroenza’s religion and plotted to escape, Muuurgh misunderstood his plannings as a
direct attack on the t’landa Til. This went against Muuurgh’s vow of service to Teroenza, and he tried to apprehend Han. Han quickly
relayed the information that Mrrov was a prisoner at Colony Two, and Muuurgh was then convinced that Han was telling the truth. They
developed an elaborate plan to get off the planet, which succeeded with only Muuurgh taking a blaster bolt in the side. Muuurgh and
Mrrov returned to Togoria, where he soon recovered and they were married. They had two cubs, a male and a female, by the time Han

Mynock
1) a winged parasite made of silicon, they roam the vacuum of space and attach themselves to passing ships, from which they draw the
energy they need to survive. They then find a suitable asteroid to feed on, ingesting silicon and other materials until it has enough to
reproduce. Mynock reproduction is based on fission of a single mynock into two new mynocks. Their origins are unknown, but it is
known that they cannot fly through hyperspace by themselves. This points to a single origination system. They can grow to lengths of
1.6 meters before reproducing. (ESB, WEG)
2) this was Wedge Antilles' codename for his R5-D2 astromech droid. Mynock was assigned to Wedge's ship about two and a half

Myostim Unit
a device which uses a sensor field coupled with adjustable, computerized electromyoclonic broadcasters to stimulate muscles. It can be
programmed to alternately contract and relax muscles, thereby giving the user an intense physical workout while lying prone on the
ground. The user can develop intense physical strength and muscle mass without a lot of equipment, time, or effort. Myostim units were
originally developed to help combat muscular atrophy on low-gravity worlds. Medical research during the height of the New Order
revealed that the units have certain side effects, including electromagnetic interference with the user's nervous system. Also, a being
who had trained with a myostim unit and was forced to stop experienced rapid atrophying of the muscles they developed. Normal
strength training was not a suitable substitute any more, and often caused more harm than good. (SE, SESB)

Myrkr
a haven for smugglers and other not-quite-law-abiding groups, this planet was located in a system near the Borderlands Regions. It is
the indigenous home of the ysalamiri and the vornskrs. Much of its native plantlife stores metals as part of their existence, and the
presence of these metals often dampens the effectiveness of scanners and communicators. The planet was first settled about 300 PE
by the Old Republic, and remained unnoticed before then. Myrkr has a 24-hour day, and a 324-local-day year. The planet is referred to
as “Myrkyr” in the early chapters of the Heir to the Empire comic series from Dark Horse. (HTTE, DFR, HTSB, EGC, HTTEC)

N-1 Starfighter
this starfighter design was created for the use of the Royal Naboo air defense fleet by the Theed Place Space Vessel Engineering
Corps. It is a sleek, needle-shaped craft with two short wings. It uses an astromech droid to offload key functions from the single pilot.
Unlike future designs which load the astromech from the top, the smaller N-1 loads the droid from the bottom. The legs and lower body
fit snugly into position, and the droid’s head is raised up to extend above the fuselage. This allows greater connectivity to the ship’s
computers and frees up valuable space. The wings support a pair of modified Nubian 221 sublight engines arranged in a J-type, or
twin-radial, configuration, which makes the craft extremely maneuverable in atmospheres. The N-1 is also equipped with a Nubian
Monarc C-4 hyperdrive for interstellar travel. The ship is armed with a pair of laser cannons and a proton torpedo launcher, and has a
sophisticated sensor and shielding suite. Overall, the N-1 fighter measures 11 meters in length. The distinctive rat-tail which extends
from the rear of the ship houses a computer communications package that allows ground-based controllers on Naboo to relay battle
information to each N-1 starfighter while in combat. In keeping with the Naboo culture and ecology, the N-1 is also equipped with
propulsion systems that produce a limited amount of emissions. The ship's yellow fuselage was contrasted with a highly-polished
chromium finish, which indicated that the ship served the ruler of Naboo. (SW1, X1, IG1, SWK)

took control of the planet. He failed to believe that the Empire was working for the good of the galaxy, and decided to join up with the
Alliance. He became a skillful agent, infiltrating Imperial bases with relative ease and escaping with vital information on such projects as
the Death Star. He later became an assistant historian working for Arhul Hextrophon, working to preserve the history of the Alliance to
Restore the Republic. After chronicling the adventures of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Leia Organa, he was named the Director of
Council Research for the New Republic. (MTS)
Naberrie, Padme’
this young woman served as Queen Amidala’s handmaiden, although she sometimes disappeared on mysterious errands for the
Queen. The reason for these errands became clear to Anakin Skywalker when Amidala petitioned to the Gungan leader Boss Nass for
help in breaking the Trade Federation’s blockade of Naboo. In reality, Padme was just an alter ego of Amidala herself. In times of
trouble or danger, Padme would return from her errands, while the handmaiden Sabe would run off. This was because Sabe also
served as Amidala’s double, as they were very similar in appearance. (SW1, TPM)
Nabkess
this Ortolan female worked as a computer expert for Adriav Kavos aboard the Isilia. (PG1)
Nabon, Fenig
this Corellian woman was a smuggler and con artist who operated in the Outer Rim during the early years of the New Republic. She
was an orphan, living on the streets of Coronet City when Jett Nabon took her in and adopted her. She learned a great deal from him
before his untimely and senseless death on Ord Mantell. Fenig and her partner, Ghitsa Dogder, met about two years after the Battle of
Endor while on Socorro, and they were often at odds with each other. Despite this, they maintained an excellent working relationship.
Fen as she was known to her friends, was also the owner and pilot of the Star Lady, the ship she used in her daily business. They once
contracted the Mistryl to carry a group of Twi'leki dancers to Durga the Hutt, then pestered their Mistryl crew into forcefully ejected them
from the ship in an escape pod. This was all part of Ghitsa's plan to have the dabcers be set free, rather than be sold into slavery. She
reprogrammed the Mistryl ship's IFF codes to resemble the Indenture as a parting shot, so that Ghitsa could provide the Hutts with the
Indenture's codes and claim the Karazaks stole the Twi'leks. Shortly afterward, the Star Lady was sabotaged, and Fen had to put down
on Prishardia. There, she encountered Kyp Durron, who was traveling under the name Zeth Fost. Once she figured out who he was,
Fen wanted to execute him for the destruction of billions of innocent lives in the Carida System. However, she realized that this was
what Kyp wanted her to do, and refused to let him off so easily. Together, they rescued Ghitsa from the crew of the Rook. (TFNR)
Nabon, Jett
Fenig Nabon's adoptive father, Jett taught her everything she knew about starships and smuggling. He was known in certain circles for
his compassion in helping the Mistryl, bringing trade to them when no one else cared or bothered to. Unfortunately, Jett was killed in a
senseless barroom brawl on Ord Mantell. (TFNR)
Naboo
1) this unusual planet is noted for the fact that it lacks a solid mantle and molten core. Instead, the planet is a ball of softer metals
riddled with caverns and small tunnels. This allows the planet retain copious amounts of water, giving the surface a swampy
environment which belies the true extent of the depths its oceans can reach. The small sections of solid ground are marked by wide,
rolling plains. Hidden below the porous rock of the planet is a core of almost pure plasma energy. The human inhabitants of the planet
learned to harness this plasma energy and use it to provide limitless electric power. It is the homeworld of a human population known
as the Naboo, as well as the Gungan race. Naboo is orbited by two small moons. An Outer Rim world, Naboo was located some 34,000
light-years from the galactic core. (SW1, GF, IWE1)
2) this is the human species which, along with the Gungans, that inhabit the planet Naboo. During much of their existence, the Naboo
took great pains to avoid contact with their Gungan neighbors, and were mostly unaware of the huge underwater cities the Gungans
built to escape contact. However, fringe elements of both species realized that they couldn’t survive without the other, and specialized
trading relationships were set up. While these relationships were not officially recognized by either government, they were vital to the
survival of each species. In general, the Naboo were a peaceful people, and chose to live in harmony with their environment rather than
destroy it. When the Trade Federation blockaded, then invaded, their world, the Naboo people were powerless to defend themselves.
Their armed forces were largely made up of unproven volunteers. (SW1, TPM)

this man was a regular patron of Didi Oddo's café, some twelve years before the Battle of Naboo. His wife was ill, and Nadarr often
visited the café in order to take a break from her care. (DH)
Nadd, Freedon
this ancient student of the Force was amazingly open and willing to touch the Force, when he was first trained on Ossus. However, he
was completely unprepared for his first true test, shortly the Jedi Masters passed him over for promotion to a full Jedi Knight. In his
anger at not being given the title of Jedi Knight, Nadd struck down Matta Tremayne and succumbed to the Dark Side of the Force and
the teachings of the Sith. He became proficient in the use of the Dark Side Sith magic, but could progress no further than apprentice,
since the reigning Dark Lord was still young (by Dark Side standards) and the Sith had declared that only one Dark Lord could rule at
any time. This frustrated Freedon Nadd to the point that he rebelled against this basic Sith tenet and, desiring his own Lordship, he took
a wealth of Sith artifacts with him from Korriban to Onderon. On Onderon, he began to teach the Sith lore to the Onderonians at Iziz,
and he used his Sith knowledge to help the Onderonians repel the Beast Masters time and again. (This has been passed down by the
Naddists in the form of a truism that Freedon defeated "the wild beasts and aborigines" of Onderon.) As his power grew, the Jedi
Knights learned of his atrocities on the planet, and sent a task force out to bring his reign to an end. There was a pitched battle, and
eventually Freedon Nadd was defeated. However, his Sith teachings had been accepted by the Onderonians, and Nadd's bloodlines
were extended during his stay, so the power of the Dark Side has never left Onderon. Nadd himself managed to preserve his spirit,
locked away with the Sith artifacts he worked to obtain. His spirit was released when Exar Kun discovered Nadd's tomb, and Nadd's
spirit led Kun to Yavin 4. There, Nadd tried to use Kun as a way to progress further down the dark path. However, when Kun became
the wearer of the Sith amulets hidden on the moon, Nadd's spirit was obliterated by Kun's rage. (FNU, TOJ, DLS, TOJC)
Naddists
the followers of Freedon Nadd's teachings based on the planet Onderon. They feel that Nadd was their savior, and that he gave them
the strength to drive out the wild natives and beasts, which allowed them to settle the city of Iziz. Their belief in Nadd leads them to
believe that the Jedi Knights are the cause of all their problems, since it was the Jedi who were called in to bring Nadd down and
recover the Sith artifacts. (DLS)

Nafen
this noctural insect is generally regarded as a pest. It is characterized by the harsh, clacking sound its wings make as it flies. They often

Naga Sadow
an ancient Sith magician who practiced a thousand years before the Freedon Nadd uprisings, Naga Sadow was one of the strongest
Sith Lords at the time Marka Ragnos died. Trained by the old mage Simus, Sadow was an intense individual who wished to bring the
Sith Empire to the forefront of the galaxy, a viewpoint not held by his contemporary, Ludo Kressh. Upon Ragnos’ death, Sadow chose
not to attend the huge funeral. Rather, he plotted how he could obtain the position of Dark Lord of the Sith. At the close of the
procession, Sadow confronted Kressh, and the two Sith Lords battled for the position of Dark Lord of the Sith. This clash of Sith energy
brought Marka Ragnos’ spirit back from the dead, and the spirit warned both of them that conflict within the ranks of the Sith would
further no one’s plans. With the appearance of Jori and Gav Daragon, Sadow discovered a way to further his own goals. Ludo Kressh
believed them to scouts from the Old Republic’s advanced forces, so Sadow freed them and staged a rescue attempt in which many
Sith warriors were killed. Sadow claimed it was Kressh’s inability to mobilize the Sith forces that caused the deaths, and claimed himself
Dark Lord of the Sith in order to guide the Sith into battle. He then took the Daragons to his two fortresses and hid them, playing upon
their emotions and their latent Force abilities to gain their confidence. He built up Gav’s strength, teaching him Sith magic while
manipulating him into a position where he would obey any command. Sadow recovered the Starbreaker 12 and returned it to Jori,
telling her that Gav had been killed and that Sadow could no loner protect her from the other Sith Lords. Her flight provided Sadow with
all the hyperspace coordinates he needed to begin attacking the Old Republic. When Kressh finally mustered his own forces to attack
Sadow, he attacked at Khar Delba. This expended much of his resources, while Sadow hid on Khar Shian. From there, he launched a
massive counterattack, decimating Kressh’s forces and nearly killing the rival magician. Sadow then retired to Primus Goluud, where he
entered a mediation sphere and launched his attacks on the Republic, augmenting his forces with illusory warriors and monsters. When
Gav Daragon disabled the sphere, Sadow’s concentration was broken. The Jedi Knights and the Republic were able to see through the
illusions, and eventually defeated the Sith forces. Sadow, under attack by the Republic’s fleet at Primus Goluud, chose to rip the star
apart and destroy them all. Gav was able to provide the Republic fleet with an escape vector, saving them from the conflagration but
dooming himself. Sadow limped back to the Sith Empire, where he was confronted by Ludo Kressh’s restored forces. In the opening
acts of the Great Hyperspace War, Sadow used the Dark Side of the Force to coerce one of his starship captains to ram Kressh’s ship,
destroying his chief rival and securing his position as Dark Lord. However, this left his forces vulnerable to Empress Teta’s fleet. In a
last-ditch effort, Sadow drew Teta’s forces into the Denarii Nova in hopes of destroying them all, but the Nova flared up and destroyed
much of Sadow’s fleet and part of the Tetan fleet. Sadow himself managed to survive, and fled to Yavin 4 to begin rebuilding his
empire. Note that Lightsabers and Dark Lords of the Sith claim Naga Sadow was an insectile beast of pure Sith blood who learned how
to give life to the dead. The ruling Dark Lord of the Sith did not appreciate Sadow's bold attempts, and sentenced him to die. Sadow
took his knowledge and his followers and fled to the moon Yavin 4. He was eventually hunted down by the Old Republic, who branded
him an outlaw and chased him to the Denarii System. There, Sadow used the powers of the Sith to rip the cores from the two Denarii
stars and fling them at the pursuing fleet. The fleet was destroyed, and the stars exploded to form the Denarii Nebula. Sadow survived
the encounter, but later passed into legends. He and his followers are now extinct, but their knowledge and powers remain behind on
Yavin 4. (DLS, L, GAS, FOSE)

dense rainforests rings the planet. It was discovered that there was intense geophysical activity beneath the rainforests, where the heat
of the magma below the crust warms the glacier and provides the necessary heat to encourage life to grow. Icequakes continually
rearrange the glacial portion of the planet, which is pummeled by hurricane-force winds and metal-piercing hail. The unique plant life
has been featured in several Imperial buldings, including the Emperor’s own gardens. It was on Najarka that Yearo Seville and his gang
kidnapped Crying Dawn Singer for the Farool brothers. The average day on Najarka lasts 28 standard hours, and its year lasts 402
local days. (TA)
Najarkan Creature
this strange beast is found in the thin band of rainforests near fissures in the glaciers of Najarka. At over 30 meters in length, this huge
predatorial reptile has no natural enemies. Its toothy maw averages two meters in width, and its large eyes are designed like low-
resolution photreceptors. The eyes are attuned to searching for and locating the kichicolia, its primary foodsource. The Empire quickly
discovered that this creature’s ability to seek out the white and black pattern of the kichicolia led it to stalk and capture stormtroopers in
full armor. (TA)
Najib
this alien race is native to the planet Najiba. They are very friendly to offworlders, but are also very suspicious by nature. They are
humanoid in physique, being stocky and well-muscled. Their legs are quite short, and their arms appear to be overly long, but they are
kilogram-for-kilogram as powerful as Wookiees and Houk. They were known to be hard-working and determined and quick to adapt to
new situations. They were discovered by Old Republic scouts many millennia ago, but the screening of the Children of Najiba kept them
isolated for many centuries. The Najiba had a tribal society, with individual tribes being ruled by a specialized governing tribe. This
governing tribe was made up from representatives of each of the lesser tribes. (TFE, SWJ13, AE)
Najiba
this Outer Rim world is situated near Tatooine, in the Faj System. Najiba has an elliptical orbit, and passes very close to its system's
asteroid belt for much of it. Thus, traffic on and off the planet is very limited, and is curtailed whenever Najiba passes closest to the belt.
The asteroids themselves are known as the Children of Najiba. Its axial tilt and its orbit resulted in a spring-like season which never
truly ended, but was broken by electrical disruptions and torrential rainstorms. This is the homeworld of the Najib, a friendly yet
suspicious race. The average day on Najiba is short, lasting only 18 standard hours. The Najiban year encompasses 215 local days.
(TFE, SWJ13)
Nak Shimor
this planet was located along the Perlemian Trade Route, on the border between the Colonies and the Inner Rim. (TOJC)
Nakaron
this Trandoshan criminal was sent to Dles IV for the murder of an Alliance agent. He hijacked the shuttle that was transporting him to
the penal world, took its crew hostage, and fled. (SWAJ)
Nakhym, Golov
this pirate Captain was captured by the Alliance, shortly before the Battle of Endor, after his forces began raiding Alliance supplies.

Nal Hutta
a planet in the Corellian sector, it was colonized by the Hutts and is the birthplace of Jabba the Hutt. The name "Nal Hutta" means
"glorious jewel" in Huttese. The planet, located in the Y'Toub System, was at one time known as Evocar, and was inhabited by the
Evocii race. The Hutts, fleeing the desolation of Varl, settled on Evocar as a suitable home. They began trading technology to the
Evocci for land, and continued to do so until they owned most of the planet. The Evocii realized what was happening, but too late. The
Hutts began construction on a multitude of palaces and pleasure sites before the Evocii could do anything about. Their appeals to the
Old Republic were taken seriously, but the contracts they signed with the Hutts were ironclad in favor of the Hutts. Even the Jedi
Knights were powerless. The Hutts forced them off the planet and onto Nar Shaddaa, where they were eventually mutated over the
years by the various technologies in use on the moon. The planet is ruled by the oldest Hutt families, who control Nar Shaddaa from
their homes. The planet is huge, but it has no natural heavy metals. Thus, its density is less than expected. Its day lasts 87 standard
hours, and its year is 413 local days in duration. What remains of the planet's natural landscape is flat, marshy bogs. In the aftermath of
the Battle of Fondor and the duplicitous actions of Borga the Hutt, the Yuuzhan Vong targetted Nal Hutta for destruction. The Vong
bombarded the planet from a remote location, although many of the missiles exploded in the atmosphere. (DE1, DESB, DS, JE, BP)
Nal Hutta Jewel
this was the name of Ganis the Hutt's Ubrikkian Minstrel-class pleasure yacht. (IA)
Nala-tree Frog
this amphibian was a favorite food of Kibbick the Hutt. He introduced them to his uncle, Aruk, who demanded that a supply bemade
readily available for his consumption. Teroenza, sick of the Besadii control over the Ylesian colonies and his own life, began working
with Jabba and Jiliac to poison the frogs he sent to Aruk, hoping to kill the ancient slug. (THG)
Nalan
this Twi'leki woman was one of the dancers Brin'shak agreed to send to Durga the Hutt. Ghitsa Dogder had negotiated the deal, then
she and Fenig Nabon arranged for passage from Ryloth to Nal Hutta. However, Fen and Ghitsa never planned to give the dancers to
Durga. The tricked Shada D'ukal and Dunc T'racen into forcing them into an escape pod, in order to cover up the fact that they really
wanted to dancers to go free. Nalan provided Shada with a message rod from Fen, which explained the whole situation. The message
from Fen also requested that Nalan and the dancers be returned to Ryloth, and delivered to the Dira clan for safekeeping. (TFNR)
Nalan Cheel
one of the Bith performing with Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes, Nalan played the Bandfill. He was homesick for the comforts of life on
Clak'dor VII. (TME, CCG2)
Nalargon
this large musical instrument was operated by a keyboard and foot pedals. It had a great many pipes and subharmonic resonators that
produced a multitude of sounds. The instrument was favored by many jizz bands throughout the galaxy. (THG)
Nalgol
this Imperial Navy Captain was a member of the Kuat family, and was the commander of the Tyrannic during the early years of the
New Republic. He maintained his command following the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn, and was part of the group picked by Moff
Disra to begin his assault on the New Republic. Shortly after the revelation of the Bothan involvement in the Caamas Incident, Disra got
Nalgol and three other Navy Captains together to introduce them to Thrawn, artfully portrayed by Flim. Although he didn’t trust Disra,
Nalgol accepted the command of an assault on the Bothan homeworld of Bothawui, in an attempt to further undermine the fragile
position the New Republic was in at the time. Even with the reappearance of Thrawn, Nalgol questioned the necessity of the mission.
Every vigilant, Nalgol shook Thrawn’s hand after accepting his orders. This allowed him to use the specialized Kuat family crest ring to
obtain a skin sample. The ring was designed to administer poison, but Nalgol hadn’t used it in years. Disra, at Major Tierce’s request,
had taken great pains to alter Thrawn’s records, so that any genetic analysis done by Nalgol would prove Flim to be the actual Thrawn.
Like his comrades, including Captain Dorja, Nalgol was compeltely fooled by the performance and the subsequent confirmation of the
false Thrawn’s genetics. Arriving fully cloaked in the Bothawui system, Nalgol and his peers captured a comet in a masterful piece of
coordination. The comet was brought into the cloaking devce’s range, and the Tyrannic was hidden behind it. As the comet moved
toward Bothawui, Nalgol was under orders to attack from behind the cloak, in an effort to draw the various alien forces amassed there
into an all-out civil war. (SOP, VOF)
Nali-Erun
this Senali clan preferred to live in relative isolation on a remote island. When Prince Leed of Rutan went into hiding on Senali, the Nali-
Erun watched over him to make sure he survived in his hideout. (SP)
Nall, Gradress
this insufferably arrogant bounty hunter was a third-generation hunter who worked for the Salaktori Hunters Guild. His skills as a hunter
were only overshadowed by his opinions of himself, and his headstrong methods often got him into trouble. (GG10)
Nall, Merrck
this second-generation bounty hunter made the neural inhibitor a standard weapon of the trade. Merrck was the father of Gradress Nall.
(GG10)
Nallok
this Twi'lek woman was an Alliance agent. Prior to joining the Alliance, she was a slave dancer for a Hutt crimelord until an Alliance
SpecForces team captured the Hutt's luxury yacht and confiscated it. Grateful for her rescue, Nallok dedicated her life to assisting the
Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. She was double-crossed by Bennbus Polag and held captive until a strike team managed to free
her from captivity. Nallok and the strike team were recognized by the Alliance for their bravery, and they eventually formed their own
SpecOps team. (IA)
Nalrithian
an alien race native to an unknown Outer Rim planet, these insectile humanoids communicated telepathically amongst themselves.
They stand just under two meters in height, although they can be heavily muscled. They had four eyes on the front of their heads,
located above a mouth which was surrounded by a pair of short tusks. Their young are hatched from eggs, and several Nalrithian
infants will be born from a single egg. These eggmates have a special telepathic bond which augmented their latent telepathic abilities.
They were isolationists and xenophobes. (TBH, SWG)
Nalroni
an alien race native to the planet Celanon. They have an acute economic sense, and have managed to turn huge profits even during
the reign of Emperor Palpatine. The average Nalroni was a golden-furred humanoid with a tapered snout and sharp teeth. They were
slender in build, but muscular and lithe. They were adept at understanding the psychology of other races, and used this trait to augment
their impressive business acumen. (PG1)
Nalros
1) this is the native language of the Nalroni race. (?) (POT)
2) this yellow star was the primary body in the Celanon System. (PG1)
Nam
this is one of the three stars which center the Chorios Systems in the Meridian Sector. (POT)
Nam Chorios
this planet, loacted in the Chorios System of the Meridian Sector, was chosen by the Grissmath Dynasty as a penal world. The original
prisoners sent here discovered that the crystalline rocks of the planet were alive with the Force. When the Force was used on the
planet, it created backlashes within the crystals, and ripples of Force lightning sometimes plunged through the canyons at night to expel
excees Force energy. When the Grissmaths sent drochs to the planet to ensure the prisoners were killed, the inhabitants and the
crystals tried to do everything in their power to keep the drochs from spreading off the planet. It was on this world that Dzym rose to
power, enslaving the crystals - known as Spooks - and selling them to Loronar for used in CCIR technologies. When Leia Organa-Solo
and Luke Skywalker arrived on the world - Leia to meet with Seti Ashgad, Luke to search for Callista - they discovered the abilities of
the Spooks, and managed to depose Dzym and Ashgad. Luke spent a number of years scoruing the galaxy for those Spooks which
could be returned to Nam Chorios. Note that the jacket liner of Planet ofTwilight refers to this world as Renat Chorios. (POT)
Namadii Corridor
this hyperspace route allowed swift travel between Coruscant and Bilbringi. (HT)
Namana Nectar
a thick, pale orange liquer produced on Bakura, it has a delicate, floral aroma and fruity taste. (TB)

NAMIS
COMPNOR's Native Management and Industrialization Service, NAMIS was a product of COMPNOR's Commerce branch. The
program was designed to efficiently turn backwater planets into industrial participants of the Empire. The program failed miserably on
Gamorr, and was scrapped. (ISB)
Namore
a planet. (HR)
Nampi
this alien Princess was from a race of huge, slug-like creatures even larger than the Hutts. She had deep purple skin, which was
studded with a series of arm-like tendrils. Nampi had large eyes and a small nose, above a wide mouth filled with sharp teeth. When
she captured Jabba the Hutt, she ate Jabba's pilot, Scuppa, before Jabba was able to escape. It was part of her species' mating ritual,
whereby a female consumes her new husband on their wedding night. However, when she tried to cross Jabba, he released th
xenoboric acid hidden in Scuppa's skull, and Nampi's body was consumed until it exploded. Jabba then took her treasure trove for his
troubles. (JTH)
Nanaod Engh
the New Republic's First Administrator during the Yevethan Great Purge. A good friend of the Chief of State, Leia Organa-Solo, she
called him "Nanny." (BTS, SOL)
Nandreeson
this Glottalphib was the unofficial ruler of Skip 6, in the Smuggler’s Run. He held a grudge, and a heavy price, on Lando Calrissian, who
had stolen a great deal of treasure from Nandreeson’s lair during the reign of Emperor Palpatine, and prior to his acquisition of Cloud
City. Nandreeson’s influence was so great that Calrissian refused to return to the Run until Han Solo disappeared there. Nandreeson
held much of the Run in fear of his wrath. When Dolph began implementing his schemes, he used Nandreeson’s position of power to
assist with the distribution of his rigged droids. During the time of the New Republic, Nandreeson spent most of his time like Jabba the
Hutt, commanding his small empire from a pond located deep inside Skip 6. There, he fed on aprfue gnats and caver eggs while his
major domo, Iisner, served as his official liaison. When Han Solo was intercepted in the Smuggler’s Run, Lando decided that he needed
to find out what had happened, despite his distrust of Nandreeson. Lando’s plans failed, and he was brought to Nandreeson. The
Glottalphib kept Lando at bay by holding him in the deepest part of the pond for some days before Han discovered Lando’s
whereabouts. In the resulting firefight which revealed the true colors of a number of Han’s smuggling “friends,” Nandreeson was shot
and killed by Han himself. (TNR)
Nane, Waric
this man was one of the Ministers who led the planet Danoor, and was the primary contact between Danoor and the Lance of Endor,
under the command of Rolf Treidum. Nane believed Treidum's lies about his being a leader of the New Republic, and threatened the
crew of the FarStar when they arrived at Danoor. He was willing to listen to Captain Adrimetrum, only after the IFF code was verified,
and eventually came to trust them crew. His trust seemed to be won over when they agreed to help retrieve a mining droid in the Duhrib
Belt in exchange for navigational information for crossing the Kathol Rift. However, Nane was far from soft-hearted. He wanted to rule
Danoor with an iron fist, creating a totalitarian society dominated by a strong police and military presence. He was developing a number
of alliances with other Ministers when the FarStar arrived. Because of his beliefs, Nane was often threatened by the populace, and so
he purchased an assassin droid to protect himself. He also falsified his deal with Captain Adrimetrum, having been given the
opportunity to meet Rolf Treidum without his false identity. Nane, seeing that the New Order was truly the form of order he so desired in
a govenrment, agreed to help Treidum delay the FarStar if at all possible.After the ship's arrival, Nane secretly signalled to Treidum.
(KO)
Naneb Pefan
this Ithorian trader had considerable experience plying the spacelanes of the galaxy, and eventually joined the Devaronian Vacasor as
co-pilot of the Merasy. It was said that Naneb Pefan could sell sand on the planet Tatooine, and that his experience kept Vacasor from
landing in the poor house. (SS)
Nannarium

Nano-Counter
this BlasTech detonation fuse is often used in micronite charges. (CFG)
Nano-destroyers
also known as nano viruses, these micrbes are created in laboratories to attack a certain genetic structure and dismantle it slowly. They
are expesnive and time-consuming to develop and manufacture, due to their single-purpose use. They are beyond the means of most
criminals, which is the only reason why their use isn't more widespread. The nano-destroyers enter the target's cells and slowly
dismantle the cell's nucleus. Once the nucleus explodes, the nano-destroyers are distributed to neighboring cells to start the process
again. They are very difficult to stop, even with the use of copious amounts of bacta, and will consume their target within a few months.
They were originally developed by humans, and seem to work only on human and certain near-human species. The Caridan
Ambassador Furgan used a group of self-replicating nano-destroyers to try and slowly debilitate Mon Mothma and bring about the fall of
the New Republic, but his death occurred just prior to Cilghal's using the Force to remove the nanodestroyers from her body, one at a
time. (COTF, JASB)
Nano-technology
this was the science of created extremely miniaturized versions of everyday technology. It was perfected by many corporations during
their height of the New Order, as the Imperial war machine required more and more sophisticated wares. (SLS)
Nanogene Droid
this highly experimental form of automaton was designed to affect the cells of living organisms. A number of nanogene droids are
injected into the target's system and attack the genetic material of the target at the molecular level. They are programmed to rewrite the
target's genetic code, causing strange and unusual reactions. Developed during the later years of the New Order, nanogene droids
were deemed too costly to use on a widespread basis, and the project was supposedly abandonded. An unscrupulous scientist named
Uris ressuracted the project with his own funding, and very nearly released a batch of the droids on the population of Voorsbain before
he was stopped by a group of Alliance agents. Uris' droids manipulated their targets' genetic structure in such a way that they would be
turned into a mindless zombie within 3 weeks. (GMH)
Nanowave Oven
a fast-heating oven. (LCJ)
Nanta-Ri
this Farlax Sector planet was blockaded during the Yevethan Purge by the New Republic's Fourth Battle Group. (SOL)
Nanth’ri
a planet. (OS)
Nanth'ri Pirates
this infamous group of space raiders were united under Celis Mott. They preyed upon ships that flew through the Nanthri Route. The
pirates found themselves without a leader when Mott was captured by the Alliance and perished in Otherspace, and disbanded soon
after Mott’s diappearance. (SWAJ, OS)
Nanthri Route
a hyperspace shipping lane prowled by Celis Mott's Nanth'ri Pirates. The pirates routinely scoured the space around the planet Nanth’ri,
taking Imperial commissions. They were given preferential treatment in return for turning any suspected Alliance agents over to the
Imperial authorities. (SWAJ, OS, IA)
Nantz
this New Republic Navy Admiral was promoted to senior flag officer just prior to the Republic's blockade of the Koornacht Cluster,
following the Yevethan Purge. He was briefly considered as a choice to replace Etahn A'baht as commander of the Fifth Battle Group
during the blockade, but was a real candidate after the capture of Han Solo. (SOL, TT)
Naorstrachem
this substance is highly flexible, and is often used in netting or webbing. Synthetic naorstrachem was used by Merr-Sonn to fabricate
the webbing shot from the Tangle Gun 7. The synthetic form combined more readily with the shrinking agent required to contract the
webbing around the target. (CFG)
Naotebe Wingling
this species of insect was shaped by Nom Anor, during the time he was posing as Doctor Dassid Cree'ar on the planet Duro. They were
known as white-eyes by the New Republic, and were developed to chew through the synthplas which formed the domes of the refugee
camps on Duro's surface. (BP)
Naplousean
this unusual alien species was little more tha a mass of snake-like, ribbony tissues supported by three legs. Its head was nothing more
than a knotted blob of wet eyes. (RP)
Napvansa Tadavv
this Sluissi engineer was known for her good work, although she often doubled or tripled her repair-time estimates so that she would
look good when she came in before the deadline. She was approached by Dhas Vedij and offered a chance to serve on the crew of the
Far Orbit, shortly after Vedij defected from Imperial service. (FOP)
NaQuoit Bandits

Nar Hekka
one of the many habitable planets in the Hutt sector of space. Located near a dim red star at the edge of the Y’toub System, Nar Hekka
has very little indigenous life. However, due to the intervention of the Hutts, several plant and animal species have been imported to the
world, resulting in a beautiful planet covered with gardens, parks, and arboretums. Much of the habitable area of the planet is covered
by a transparent dome that alters the incoming red light and creates a blue sky tinged with violet. (TPS, THG)
Nar Shaddaa
Nal Hutta's spaceport moon, known for its vertically-built cities, experienced spaceship mechanics and its lawlessness. It is a center for
smuggling operations, and is supposedly where Han Solo learned the smuggler's trade as a youth. When the Hutts took over the moon,
they began using it as a spaceport, and soon huge refueling spires and repair facilities reached up from the ground into orbit. There is
no observable land mass left on Nar Shaddaa, since the spaceports have grown around the spires and now completely cover the
planet. The moon was uninhabited during the time that the Evocii lived on Nal Hutta, although they called it Evocar. When the Hutts
took over the planet, they relegated the Evocii to Nar Shaddaa. However, the Hutts used them as semi-free slaves on the moon, and
the press of so many various species and technologies eventually mutated the Evocii. Nar Shaddaa is similar to its parent planet,
having a day which lasts 87 standard hours, and a year which lasts 413 local days. It is tide-locked with Nal Hutta, and only shows one
side to its planet. This results in a day which has two distinct periods of ligthness: one in which is is in full view of the sun, and one in
which it obtains light reflected from Nal Hutta. This also results in two periods of night. (DE1, DESB, DE2, THG)
Nar-Somo-Dali
this Cerean elder was one of the few that held faith in the ability of Ki-Adi-Mundi to search out the source of the swoops and other
technology which was imported to Cerea during the last decades of the Old Republic. He sent a messenger to Ki during his initial
search for Ephant Mon, to bring the Jedi his lightsaber. The lightsaber was being held as evidence for the trial of Maj-Odo-Nomor, but
Nar-Sodo-Dali managed to free it with the use of an obscure loophole in Cerean laws. (PTR)
Nara

this profitable resort is owned by Galaxy Tours. (CSA)
Narada-ti
this is the Yevethan term for midwife. The narada-ti attends to the various marasi assembled for impregnation by a male. (TT)
Narcassan, Vyn
this dark-skinned man was a member of the Old Republic's Intelligence agency. One of the agency's older agents, Narcassan was
smart enough to engineer his own disappearance when Emperor Palpatine rose to power. No one ever found him. Myn Donos believed
that Narcassan was, in fact, Shalla Nelprin's father, but this was never proven. (SOC)
Narco-interrogation
this multi-level form of prisoner interrogation involves the use of certain drugs (like skirtopanol) and torture to extract information
electronically. There are four levels of narco-interrogation. Level Four is the lowest level of interrogation, and involves intense
questioning with the use of large amounts of skirtopanol. Level One interrogations are extremely intense, and are designed to extract
information that has been purposely buried or forgotten, and often uncovers certain genetic memories. (KT)
Narco-spice
a highly-addictive form of spice which found widespread use in the Minos Cluster. (GG6)
Narcolethe
this Mandalorian alcohol is famous in the Outer Rim Territories. (GG9)
Nardah, Elth
this patient, fastidious Doctor was best-known for his work with the Karran race. A wizened old man, he worked for the Alliance
Diplomatic Corps, hoping to negotiate a treaty between the Alliance and the Karran people, as well as discovering ways in which the
Karrans could stand against the Empire's xenophobic laws. When he accepted Darryn Edalm's surrender and brought the Imperial
governor to his base, the native Karrans accused Nardah of being a traitor and in league with the Empire. Tist, one of Nardah's friends
among the Karrans, beat Nardah with his bare fists until he was dead. (SWJ1)
Nardix
this Imperial Sector Governor was wanted by the Alliance for crimes against sentients. 4-LOM and Zuckuss accepted the bounty the
Alliance placed on his head, and captured the Governor. This left the two hunters with an Imperial death warrant on their heads. Nardix
was convicted by an Alliance, an embarrassment for the Empire at a time when the New Order was failing in its attempt to win over new
worlds. 4-LOM and Zuckuss took the job in order to obtain the credits needed to finance the cost of new lungs for Zuckuss. (TBH)
Nardo
this assistant of the Lady Tarkin was her personal bodyguard as well. He maintained a display of megonite in her offices, and kept track
of her appointments. During the 13th Imperial Diplomatic Conclave on Phelarion, he caught Leia Organa trying to use Lady Tarkin's
transmitter. He attempted to shot her, but one of his laser bolts struck the megonite display. Nardo was killed in the explosion, but Leia
managed to escape. (CSWEA)
Narek-ag
owner and pilot of the transport shuttle Moon Dash, she and her co-pilot Trebor were working toward retirement when they impacted an
unknown object in orbit above Coruscant. As their ship came apart around them, Narek asked Terbor to marry her. He accepted as the
Moon Dash exploded. (LO)
Narg
this planet is located in Rayter Sector, and was the site of TransGalMeg Industries’ corporate headquarters. Its climate varies greatly
with lattitude, with equatorial deserts and polar ice caps. It is a low-tech world on which human life evolved normally, until the planet
was discovered by the Empire three years before the Battle of Yavin. The planet was quickly industrialized and stripped of its natural
resources. The Empire decided that the human population was not ready for entrance into the galactic community, and placed the
planet under a provisional protectorate owned by TransGalMeg. TGM received ten years of full power over the planet’s resources in
return for managing the planet for the Empire. Because of their isolation, the humans of Narg are highly xenophobic. Narg’s average
day lasts 21 standard hours, and its year encompasses 431 local days. (TA)
Narg Starport
this is the main public starport on the planet Narg, located in the city of Grig. The starport supported a wide range of services, including
a cultural information center, refresher services, a souvenir shop, and a logistical office which keeps track of all beings requesting to
stay on the planet. (TA)
Narglath
these large, feline predators are native to the planet Naboo. Young narglaths are abandoned at birth and left to fend for themselves.
They are remarkably adaptive creatures. Adults are stealthy hunters, although much of the hunting is done by the females. The males
serve as the protectors of their family prides. (GF)
Nargo
1) this is the capital city of the planet Nigel IV, and is the site of the planet’s primary spaceport. (TSK)
2) this crime lord was known for his incredible lack of sympathy. He once set up a group of freelance freighter captains by asking them
to transport some Tirefin spice for him, then sent a group of pirates out to waylay them. He then forced them to pay for the spice they
lost, effectively doubling his credits. (GMS)
Narik
this Rodian served as his planet's representative to the New Republic, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. He bristled at
the fact that Borsk Fey'lya supported the protection of the Mid Rim, including the Bothan world of Bothawui, while virtually sacrificing the
Outer Rim to the Yuuzhan Vong in order to further protect the Core. Note that this character is also referred to as Navik in Balance
Point. (BP)
Naris-bud Tea

Naritus
this New Republic Mon Calamari MC80A cruiser was a veteran of New Republic military operations when it was assigned to intercepte
Belindi Kalenda's Ugly starfighter when it arrived at Coruscant, following her discovery of rise of the Human League on Corellia.
Captained by Genkal, it assisted in eliminating the last of the Khuiumin Survivors, and later assisted in the evacuation of the Thanta
Zilbra system. (AS, CTD)
Narkaa
this razor-toothed ocean predator is native to the planet Rathalay. (SOL)
Narloch
this Herglic was a native of Giju, and was a successful gambler and entrepreneur. He owned casinoes on several worlds, including
Reaper's World and his most recent base of operations on the planet Emmer, and traveled the galaxy in his personal starship, the
Elusive. It was rumored that Narloch had the backing and support of Jabba the Hutt. During the Galactic Civil War, a bounty was placed
on his head for theft and fraud by Lord Haakon, following a sabacc match in which Narloch took nearly all of Haakon's wealth. He
courier, Fellan, betrayed Narloch by providing evidence of his dealings with Jabba to the bounty hunters who were searching for him.
However, Narloch managed to avoid capture for a long time. (ND)
Narloch's Casino
located on the planet Emmer, this casino was owned by the Herglic entrepreneur Narloch. It was built from the superstructure of an
Imperial landing platform to better accommodate the walkers which were used to move about on the planet. (ND)
Narmox

Narra
an Alliance star pilot, Narra was the leader of the Red Squadron of X-Wings prior to the Battle of Hoth. He was killed in an Imperial
ambush near Derra IV, when the supply convoy he was escorting was attacked. The pilots serving with him referred to him as 'The
Boss.' After Narra's death, Luke Skywalker was promoted to Commander. This is contrary to what Classic Star Wars maintains. CSW
claims Luke was promoted to Commander after Vrad Dodonna's death. (ESBR)
Narra
this Lambda-class shuttle was captured by the New Republic and assigned to support Wraith Squadron. It was captured from an
Imperial captain who had deserted the Empire and turned to a life of smuggling. It had been retrofitted to provide him with hidden
comparments, enhanced weapons and shields, and stronger engines. (WS)
Narrant System
this planetary system was controlled by a confederation of liege-lords who controlled separate factions of genetically-linked species. A

Nartlo
this small, balding man was apprehended by Kirtan Loor on Coruscant, during the time he ran the Palpatine Counterinsurgency
Faction. Nartlo was selling diluted bacta for increased profits, and had information on how the New Republic was obtaining its bacta.
Loor employed him as a spy, and was giving him lotiramine as an insurance policy. Nartlo was also under observation by Fliry Vorru.
Vorru used skirtopanol to pull information from Nartlo, and the interaction of skirtopanol and lotiramine set up intense convulsions and
cerebral hemmorhaging that eventually killed him. (KT)

2) this alien race, native to the planet Narvath, was humanoid in stature, with long limbs. (BTS)
Narwe, Ryca
this man was part of the workforce assigned by Eyar Treatment Systems to clean the south-central branch of the Eyar City sewers. His
superiors recognized that Ryca was abrasive and surly, and rarely bothered to assign him a partner. Ryca considered himself
underpaid and underappreciated, but continued to work because of the steady paycheck. He had a fear of the dianogas which lived int
he sewers, and he would often hide and call security when he encountered one. (HAS)
Nas Choka
this Yuuzhan Vong was the supreme commander of the war fleet which invaded the known galaxy. Despite his position of power, Nas
Choka was smaller than most of the Yuuzhan Vong, but no less powerfully built. He wore a deep red cape, signifying his position as
supreme commander, and his fingers and arms were covered with rings and signets. He hated the fact that Nom Anor was given a
second chance to lead the fleet during the invasion, and was inwardly pleased when the plan to infiltrate Elan into the Jedi Knights
failed. In the wake of Elan's death, Choka ordered Commander Tla and the priest, Harrar, back to the Outer Rim and away from the
front line of the invasion. Nas Choka also questioned the tactic of destroying the Jedi Knights before conquering the galaxy, claiming
that the Force was just an idea, and could be replaced with something else. (HT, JE)

they were indoctrinated and could defect with large amounts of knowledge.
Nashira
Akanah provided this Fallanassi name to Luke Skywalker, claiming it was his mother’s. It was a star-name, held in high regard. When
Luke and Akanah finally discovered the Fallanassi, Wailu told Luke that she could not reveal whether or not Nashira was his mother,
because he was not of the White Current. (BTS, TT)
Nashtah
one of the infamous hunting beasts of Dra III, the nashtah is a six-legged beast with long, diamond-hard claws on all six feet. They have

cameras in the Mrlsst Academy to view Hask’s strategy meetings. (XWPA)
Nat Secura
a Twi'lek descendant of a great Twi'lek house, Secura was controlled by Bib Fortuna, just before Jabba the Hutt's death. When Jabba
came to Ryloth to obtain Twi'leki slaves, he had burned buildings in Nat's city in order to force the Twi'leks out of them and into capture
nets. Nat had been severly burned in the fires; his lekku had been completely burned off. Fortuna had discovered Nat while looting his
house, and had "rescued" him. The Twi'leki survivors never forgot Nat's bravery, and Fortuna had planned to use Nat as his figurehead
and as a rallying point. However, Jabba had grown tired of Nat's presence, and was planning on feeding him to the rancor. Fortuna
intervened, again "rescuing" Nat, only to have Nat's brain surgically removed by the B'omarr monks and placed in a nutrient jar. Nat's
mind railed against the loss of his body, but he eventually came to accept his place. Jabba then threw Nat's body - which had been kept
alive by the monks' skillful surgery - to the rancor, seemingly ending Nat's life. Fortuna had planned to find a Twi'lek clone body for
Nat's brain, a body that was not scarred and deformed like his original one. He told Nat this, and Nat decided that he wanted Han Solo's
body. Fortuna thought that this would be a fitting revenge against Solo, and kept the plan in his mind. However, the death of Jabba and
the monks' revenge against Fortuna left both of them disembodied. (TJP)
Natalar Mountains
a range of mountains found on the planet Adarlon. (GG6)
Natchgas
this natural, gaseous fuel was created by converting animal an municipal waste produced into a liquid sludge that is boiled. Natchgas
was easy to create, and found widespread use in the cash-poor Outer Rim Territory. (IWE1)
Nath, Reson
this woman was a bounty hunter for the Paramexor Guild of Hunters. She was accused by Prefect Adar of a variety of crimes, and was
sentenced to Guild punishment. In her case, it was armed combat with her accuser. Adar quailed at the prospect of fighting with her,
and withdrew the charges rather than fight her. However, Moff Gorliz - called in to observer the trial - had already wagered Janq
Paramexor that Adar would last at least ten minutes on combat, and ordered the to begin. (GG10)
Nathas I
this cold, airless planet was located in Questal Sector, and was the homeworld of the Protean race. (AE)

this planet was visited by Jabba the Hutt some years before the Battle of Yavin, as Jabba wanted to explore the sacred temple of
Poborandurannum. (JTH)
Natja
this Hutt crimelord made her wealth in the slave trade of the Outer Rim Territories. Despite the fact the she was very polite with her
visitors, Natja was ruthless and untrustworthy at best. She was known to keep a tribe of Jawas under her control, to serve as servants
and personal escorts. Natja eventually purchased the prototype Imperial armor and shields auctioned off by Sard Nightbringer, for an
even 100,000,000 credits. She was later poisoned with a verneilan parasite, and quickly died. It was later revealed that her killer was
none other than Marg Sonat. (POC)
Natori Association
this branch of the Tenloss Syndicate was made up of former military personnel who worked to train mercenaries for hire. They were
based on Sperin, in the Palaquin System, and were a serious rival of the Ragnar Bounty Hunter Syndicate during the early years of the

Nautag
Yarna d'al' Gargan's Askajian mate, Nautag was known as one of the best weavers of tomuon wool on Askaj. Nautag and his family
were captured by Jabba the Hutt's slavers and brought to Tatooine. When Nautag cursed Jabba for being nothing more thana low-life
scum who would never have his family as slaves, Jabba dropped Nautag into the rancor pit. After Yarna escaped from Jabba's palace,
she named her surviving male cub Nautag, in honor of its father. (TJP)
Nautical Star
this 30-meter-long Mon Calamari transport ship was typical of the smaller ships produced by the Mon Cal. Like all Mon Cal starships, it
was unique among similar ships but retained the exquisite lines and exception craftsmanship inherent in all Mon Cal designs. It has
controls for a number of non-Calamari races, including humans. It could handle up to 75 metric tons of cargo, and had a number of
redundant systems. The Nautical Star has the unique ability to be able to operate in the vacuum of space, in atmosphere, and under
the water. The Star is armed with a pair of laser cannons. (SWJ9)
Nava Card

Nave
this three-leafed, yellow swamp plant is found on the planet Naboo, where it is used by the Gungans as a spice and a wrapping for
many meals. (GF)
Nave Vengaris
this female served as the governor of the planet Aquilaris during the last decades of the Old Republic. She welcomed the tourism and
income which accompanied podracing during this period, and heartily supported the used of several floating cities as parts of the race
courses. (RAC)
Navett, Drend
this member of the underground organization known as Vengeance worked with Klif to incite crowds to riot over the smallest of issues.
Klif did the talking, using forceful words to bring a crowd to a state of agitation. Drend, once the mood was right, would touch off the
riots with a few well-placed blicci-fruits or pipe-bombs. The two found steady employment when Moff Disra hired them to cause riots on
several New Republic worlds after the revelation that the Bothans were involved in the destruction of Caamas. Later, Navett and Klif
were placed in charge of taking out the shield generator in Drev'starn, posing as exotic animal dealers. In this capacity, they were able
to obtain several swarms of metalmites, which they infiltrated into the genreator building on the clothing of the workers. When the
Bothans realized that they had a problem, they called in Navett and Klif. They were only too happy to help the Bothans exterminate the
metalmites, and while laying down the insecticide they also laid several spreads of liquid nutrients. Then, after gaining access to a
power conduit under the restaurant of a Ho'Din - with the help of Pensin and Horvic - they used a nesting of baby mawkrens to carry out
the next steps. The mawkrens were hungry, and Navett used this to his advantage. After strapping small, remote-detonating bombs to
their backs, Navett helped them get the scent of food: the liquid nutrients they had placed in the generator building. The first wave of
mawkrens were used to take out the building's main walls, while the second group was used to destroy the generator itself.
Unfortunately, this second step required Navett to be close the explosion - it was a suicide mission. As soon as Navett got the shields
down, the others managed to get aboard the Predominance and initiate a battle for Bothawui. (SOP, VOF)
Navigation Bouy
also known a NavBouy, these floating, deep-space devices provide information on interstellar coordinates to nearby starships, as long
as they have the correct access codes. They can also aid those starships that have hyperdrives but limited navicomputer capability.
(XW)
Navigation Computer
also known as a NavCom Unit, these computers are used to plot trajectories and hyperspace flight plans between the planets contained
in the computer's database. It uses the spatial coordinates of the ship in order to accurately chart a course. (SW, SCRE)
Navigator’s Guild
this ancient guild was responsible for the discovery, cataloguing, and availability of hyperspace routes. Their membership was made up
of daring explorers who braved the unknowns of deep space to find quicker ways to get from one major trade center to another. Once a
new route was discovered, the right to use the route was sold by the guild, with a percentage of the royalties going to pay the explorers
which found it. (GAS)
Navik
the leader of the Chattza Rodians, Navik is easily distinguished by the red birthmark which covers his face. This birthmark led to his
nickname, Navik the Red. He perpetuated the warlike nature of the Rodians, using the traditional wargames as an excuse to make war
on other tribes. In doing so, he killed Greedo's father and forced the Tetsus tribe to Flee Rodia. He hunted them down, forcing them off
the jungle planet they had adopted and onto Nar Shaddaa. Navik returned to Rodia, and after the Battle of Endor he became Rodia’s
de facto leader. He was later named the planet’s main representative to the New Republic, and was a member of the nine-being
leadership of the New Republic Defense Force. (TME, JE)
Navy, Imperial
the space-going branch of the Imperial armed forces, the Navy oversaw all operations the involved the Imperial fleet. They had become
a mental weapon for the Emperor Palpatine, who used them as a primary part of his "rule by fear" doctrine. He beefed up the Navy,
adding the larger and fiercer Imperial- and Super-class Star Destroyers while increasing the speed and firepower of the TIE fighter
squadrons. It was rumored that, at its height, the Navy consisted of over 25,000 Imperial-class Star Destroyers. The Imperial Navy also
possessed the sophistication to determine galactic stellar coordinates to 3 additional decimal places over and above the necessary
precision for most navicomputers. (SW, AC, WEG)
Nawara Ven
this Twi'lek was a member of Wedge Antilles' X-Wing Rogue Squadron. On Ryloth, Nawara was born to the Ven clan. His name was
translated literally to be "tongue of silver," but the translation was modified to mean "excellent speaker." On Ryloth, he is known as
Nawar'aven, which indicates the Twi'leki tendency to modify names to indicate meaning. If he were known by his true clan name,
Nawara'ven, the translation would then be "tarnished silver." He was a lawyer with the New Republic before applying for fighter duty. As
such, he drew a part in the mission to liberate Coruscant. Once on the planet, Nawara contracted the Krytos virus, but underwent
immediate bacta therapy and was able to overcome the virus. He later served as Tycho Celchu's defendant in the trial of Corran Horn's
murder, as well as the Rogue Squadron primary representative in the mission to Ryloth to obtain Kor ryll. Upon his return to Coruscant,
Ven was contacted by Kirtan Loor, who offered to expose every Imperial agent on Coruscant, including the true identity of the traitor in
Rogue Squadron, in return for freedom from Ysanne Isard and certain liberties. Ven brokered a deal with the New Republic's
Provisional Council, and met Loor with Iella Wessiri in the bowels of Imperial City. When they exitted the turbolift at the prosecutor's
level, they were attacked by Diric Wessiri. Wessiri believed that Loor was actuall Evir Derricote, and wanted to kill Derricote for
enslaving him. Instead, Diric shot Ven in the hip before killing Loor. Diric himself was killed by his own wife, Iella, who believed him to
be a crazed assassin. Ven managed to overcome the injury and return to Rogue Squadron, but was shot down during the Battle of
Thyferra by Erisi Dlarit. He ejected before his X-Wing exploded, but he sustained damage to his legs when his vacuum suit was pierced
by shrapnel. He decided to give up flying and become the Rogue's Executive officer. He tried to develop a relationship with Dia Passik,
but she remained aloof to him because of the fact that he remained loyal to Ryloth in many ways. He later started working for Booster
Terrik aboard the Errant Venture, using his legal and accounting skills to keep the floating outpost solvent. (XWN, WG, KT, BW, SOP,

this eatery was located in Kuat City, and was quite popular during the early decades of the New Republic. It was here that Reck Desh
learned of Elan's seeming defection to the New Republic from an unknown telbun. (HT)
Nebula Orchids
brilliant flowers native to Yavin 4. They grow on thin vines, which are used as string. The vines are filled with fluid which seeps out when
cut. This causes the vines to contract, tightening any existing knots even further. (DA, HTF)
Nebulas of Osssorck
this vast area of space is so dense with gases that it affects starship sensors and other systems. More ships have crashed into each
other while travelling within the Nebulas than in any other part of the galaxy. (GMS)
Nebula Queen
this luxury ship was operated by Event Vistas, and made regular runs to Coruscant. (SOC)
Nebulon-B Frigate
the designation of the Kuat Drive Yards EF76B Escort ship, it is a strangely-shaped ship that has a long, thin hull with its main decks
hanging off the front end and the engines hanging off the rear. It measured 300 meters in length. They are slow, unwieldy ships, and
were designed to carry a number of TIE Fighters as protection. Originally built for Imperial escort duty just after the Battle of Yavin, the
Alliance was able to capture a number of them intact, and used these frigates as medical ships. They had a normal crew of 920. They
were built at a cost of 194,000,000 credits, not quite a fifth the cost of an Imperial-class Star Destroyer.
The Nebulon-B Frigate boasts the following shipboard systems:
- 12 Borstel RH8 Laser Cannon Batteries
- 2 Phylon-Q7 Tractor Beam Projectors
- Serridge SEAL Shielding System (rated at 160 SBD)
- 12 Taim and Bak XI7 Turbolaser Batteries
- Plat Dromma Targetting Computer
- Triple Tam Stardrive and Hyperdrive Motivator
- Fabritech ANs 9.5w Wide Range Sensor System
- Fighter Bays:
- 1 X-wing or 1 A-wing Squadron
- 1 Y-wing Squadron
KDY also produced a modified version of the Nebulon-B frigate, aptly named the Nebulon-B2. The primary difference between the B
and the B2 is in the forward section of the ship. The Nebulon-B has a deep-based forward pod that extends well below the aft engine
section. The Nebulon-B2 has a smaller forward pod, comparable in size to the engine pod. Attached the smaller pod, in order to gain
stability, are two downward-planed wings. It is otherwise exactly the same as the original Nebulon-B.

Nebulon Ranger
Ulic Qel-Droma's Coruscant-class heavy courier starship. He used it to transport himself, his brother Cay, and Tott Doneeta to Onderon
in order to help enact a truce to the Beast Wars as Master Arca's chargemen. After Ulic was possessed by the Sith magic of Exar Kun,
the Ranger fell into Cay's hands, and he used to assist the Jedi during the Great Sith War. Cay took it to Ossus in an attempt to help
the Jedi recover their lore after the destruction of the Cron System. However, he discovered Ulic's presence there, and took to the skies
to defeat his brother. In the battle, the Ranger was destroyed by Ulic, forcing Cay to land at great cost to the ship. Ulic then murdered
Cay in a lightsaber battle. (TOJ, DLS, TSW)
Nebulox Q Racer

Necr'ygor Omic
an interstellar wine ('47, '49, '50, and '52 were good vintages). (HTTE)
Necresh
this small scavenger is native to the planet Korbin. Necresh as red-furred mammals which resemble rats. Their keen senses of small
and hearing allow them to locate sources of food, although they rarely have to use them because most necresh live near the Last Call
valley. This valley provides most necresh with a ready source of dead meat. (PG2)
Necropolis
this planet is populated by a human culture known as the Necropolitans.Hoole asked Han Solo to take he and his charges - Tash and
Zak Arranda - to the planet in order for them to purchase a new ship after the planet D'vouran consumed their previous vessel. The
planet's surface is shrouded in a perpetual mist. The natives of the planet have an ancient civilization, whose origins go back thousands
of years before the Battle of Yavin, and they revere their dead with deep-seated traditions. Doctor Evazan used this planet as a place to
hide out from the various bounty hunters searching for him, and perfected his reanimation serum during this time. He used the many
legends and traditions of the Necropolitans to keep his efforts a secret. (GOF2)
Necropolitan
this was the name used by the living human natives of the planet Necropolis. Much of their day-to-day activity is governed by the
Master of Cerements, who works to ensure that the Curse of Sycorax will not be invoked. Many of the modern children of Nercpolis
believed the ancient Curse was simply a bedtime story meant to scare children into behaving. However, the ancient rituals evolved into
time-honored traditions, and the Necropolitans observed them all. Funerals were especially impressive and elaborate, but solemn and
thought-provoking nonetheless. The loved ones of the deceased are kept separated from the body, for the Necropolitans believed that if
the dead person saw the living mourn, they would come back from the dead. The family of the departed therefore lived in seclusion for
seven days. (GOF2)
Nectarsect
this form of insect lived by sucking the nectar out of fruits and certain flowers. (JH)
Nectarwine
this wine is fermented from the fabled fruit fields of the planet Nepoy. (BF)
Nedmak, Kaj
a native of the planet Drall, Kaj stowed away on the smuggling ship of Zevel Hortine and learned to be a smuggler. At the age of
seventeen, he set out on his own. He was one of the Nar Shaddaan smugglers who agreed to help Bria Tharen fly troop and rescue
ships during the Battle of Ylesia. Years later, he teamed up with Celia Durasha, taking her much the same way Hortine had taken him
in, after finding her stowed away aboard his ship, the Tryan Kajme. However, Kaj wasn’t as good a sabacc player as he was a spacer,
and he found himself heavily in debt to Rass M’Guy. This only added to the debt Kaj already owed Bwahl the Hutt, after failing to deliver
a cargo of spice to the Gordian Reach, which was blockaded by the Empire. In an effort to pay off both Bwahl and Rass, Kaj convinced
Celia to allow him to give an entire shipment of weapons – which they had been contracted by Bwahl to deliver to Tammuz-an – to
Rass. Kaj then planned to play some sabacc and run enough spice to pay back Bwahl. Celia reluctantly agreed, but feared that
something bad might happen. After Rass took the weapons as payment for the interest Kaj owed him, Kaj gave serious consideration to
joining the Alliance. He hoped to avoid any further legal entanglements by joining up, but Celia asked him to stay out of the war. Before
they could get very far from Ord Mantell, the Tryan Kajme was pulled from hyperspace by one of Bwahl’s ships. They were forced to
crashland on Ord Mantell, and Kaj was lost. He was captured by the bounty hunter known as Thune, who used Celia as an unwitting
accomplice to capture Treytis Prash as well. Thune planned to return Kaj to Bwahl, and turn Prash and Celia over to the Empire. Celia
and Prash managed to subdue Thune, and Kaj shot her Gank partner. Thune, however, came back to consciousness and managed to
stab Kaj through the heart with a heavy knife. Kaj held on long enough for Celia and Prash to escape, and was eventually rescued by
U-THR. The droid had finally had enough of Thune’s bounty hunting, and helped Kaj stun her. Kaj then recovered the Y-Wing in which
Celia and Prash had escaped, and they all made off with the Faceted. Kaj and Celia renamed the ship to Starlight Red, and recruited U-
THR to help them out in their smuggling activites. (RD, SWJ14)
Nee
this female Sunesi was one of Agapos the Ninth's primary followers. Like Agapos, Nee had a sensitivity to the Force, and could heal

Needa, Lorth
an Imperial Navy Captain, Needa was one of Ozzel's closest advisors in the Imperial fleet. Needa was promoted to the command of the
Imperial-class Star Destroyer Avenger, and was part of the fleet that attacked Hoth. Following Ozzel's inability to follow instructions at
the Battle of Hoth, Needa was directed by Darth Vader to follow the Millenium Falcon into the Hoth asteroid belt. Needa's failure to
capture the Falcon resulted in his execution at the hands of Vader. Needa was portrayed by Michael Culver in Star Wars: The Empire
Strikes Back. Needa was also portrayed by Nicholas Kepros for the The Empire Strikes Back Radio Drama on National Public Radio.
(ESB, ESBR, MTS, WG)
Needa, Virar
this first-cousin, once removed, of Lorth Needa served the Empire on Coruscant as an orbital mirror commander. He was in control of
mirror OSETS 2771 (The Krytos Trap indicates he was in commanf of OSETS 1127), which was reprogrammed by Winter to evaporate
one of the planet's major resevoirs, in hopes of creating a huge electrical strom to short out the planet's shield generators. Virar was
powerless to stop them. (WG, KT)
Needalb, Dedro
this Imperial Customs officer served the Empire on Nar Shaddaa during the early years of the New Order. Although he was an Imperial

Needan
this planet, located beyond the Outer Rim Territories, was the homeworld of the Geelan race. The majority of the planet was once
covered with oceans which teamed with life, while the land masses were covered with beautiful jungles. The planet was suddenly
knocked from its orbit by a passing comet, and Needan was pushed into a wider orbit. As a result, the planet was plunged into a
premature and permanent ice age. Much of the flora and fauna was killed off over a couple of generations, but the Geelan managed to
construct domes to protect themselves from the perpetual winter. (SWJ13)

developed by Loronar Corporation in the early years of the New Republic, the Needle was a small attack ship which employed Centrally
Controlled Independent Replicant technology. Less than three meters long and extremely fast, Needles could be deployed from
anywhere in the vicinity of their target. They were build from small, shielded transport shells manufactured by Seifax, and employed
small hyperdrives built by the Bith. The droch Dzym agreed to supply Loronar with Sppok crystals for CCIR in return for weapons and
synthdroids. In the field, Needles were controlled from a remote location, usually the starship from which they were launched. Their
speed and size made them nearly impossible to detect and track. As part of their deal, Dymurra obtained the rights to build a Needle
production facility on Antemerdias, although this construction never occurred. (POT)
Needle Beast
this lethal predator is native to the planet Dithanune. (CRO)
Needle Ship
this defensive craft was named for its slender shape. This shape allows the needle ship to slip into cloud cover and virtually disappear.
It also allows the ship to evade most radar and sensor scans. (TNR)
Needle-launcher
this is an ancient version of a flechette gun. (SH)
Needlebeamer

Needlebug
this insect lives in the forests of Kashyyyk. It has a barb-covered nose which it uses to dig into the wroshyr trees’ bark and suck out the
sap. (TT)
Needler Crab
this crab, native to the rocky reefs of Jodaka, uses a deadly poison to capture its prey. The poison is injected throug a long, biotic
needle which it can expel with a short burst of air. The natural food source of the needler crab was the seagulls that search the reefs for
fish, which it shot down using its poisoned darts. (SWJ1)
Needles, The
a section of the Jundland Wastes on Tatooine, The Needles are the traditional camping grounds of the Tusken Raiders. They were

Neela
a Rodian female, she was Greedo and Pqweeduk's mother. (TME)
Neelah
this was the childhood nickname of Kateel of Kuhlvult, and was derived from the way she said her name before she learned how to talk.
This was the only name she remembered after her sister, Kodir, tried to wipe her memory in order to keep her own plans a secret.
Kateel had objected to Kodir’s plans, and her ambitious sister needed to quiet Kateel quickly. She arranged for Kateel to be kidnapped
and have her memory erased, but the thugs did a very poor job of it. Kateel almost died because of the injuries she sustained. Kateel
was then supposed to be shipped off by Ree Duptom, never to be seen again. After Duptom’s engines suffered a partial meltdown and
lef this ship adraft, Kateel was found by Boba Fett and brought to Jabba the Hutt’s palace for safekeeping. Fett remained at the palace,
ostensibly to remain on Jabba’s payroll, but primarily to keep an eye on Neelah. He knew that she was part of the mystery surrounding
Kuat of Kuat, although he wasn’t sure how all the pieces fit together. When Jabba was killed near the Pit of Carkoon, and Boba Fett
nearly killed by the Sarlacc, Neelah was left to wander on her own until she was discovered near the Sarlacc by Dengar and his
betrothed, Manaroo. Both Fett and Neelah were taken to Dengar’s hideout in the desert, where Dengar and Neelah nursed the other
bounty hunter back to health. Over the next month, Neelah began to recover bits and pieces of her memory, both on her own and
through Fett’s own descriptions of the situation surrounding her. As they tried to unravel the mystery of Kuat of Kuat, Neelah discovered
that she had a regal bearing and a strong will. When she stumbled across a picture of the scratches left by Nil Posodum in the holds of
Slave I, a big piece of her erased memory flooded back into place. Posondum had scratched the logo of Kuat Drive Yards into the
ship’s floor, and Neelah suddenly remembered that she was a member of one of the Kuat ruling families. After being captured by Kodir
near Oran-µ, the rest of her memory returned. Once back at Kuat, she exposed her sister’s duplicitous schemes, but couldn’t save Kuat
of Kuat from killing himself. She didn’t want to take control of KDY, but made sure that the ruling families were kept in line. She was
distinguished by her athletic build and jet-black hair, and she had a scar on her cheek from the vibroblade of a Gamorrean guard in
Jabba’s employ. The Gamorrean had tried to keep her from escaping Jabba’s palace, but she managed to take the weapon from the
clumsy beast and kill him with it. (MA, SLS, HM)
Neelgaimon
a planet feared for its slave-worked sandmines. (COJ)
Neema
Vima-Da-Boda's daughter, Neema was as gifted with the Force as any of her famous ancestors. Vima tried to teach her, but Neema
wanted to learn more than her mother's traditional teachings would provide. Neema began to experiment on her own, unknowingly
delving deeper and deeper into the Dark Side of the Force. Thus, Neema's fall from the Light Side was utterly complete, beyond even
Vima's ability. Vima kept trying, though, and Neema became angry at her mother's attempts. She fled her mother and became the
mistress of an Ottethan warlord, in a effort to gain the aid of some friends who courted him. Neema eventually married him, to further
gain aid, but he quickly tired of her and cast her out. Neema used all of her Dark Side power to strike him down, but the warlord used a
primitive defense and survived the attack. He then imprisoned her, where she eventually repented her ways and tried to telepathically
contact her mother, in an attempt to regain her freedom. Vima heard, but arrived too late, for the Ottethan had set her loose in the
forests of his home world, where she was killed by the native rancors. (DE1, DESB)
Neena
this former Alderaanian woman grew up in the household of Bail Organa. She displayed a large amount of musical talent, and was off-
planet studying when the Empire destroyed Alderaan. This left her without any form of support, which meant that she had to break off
her studies and fend for herself. She supported herself by performing aborad starliners, always trying to locate surviving members of
the Organa household. Eventually, she found herself working on Adarlon, where she met Drun Carinwick and became involved with the
Alliance. She became an undercover agent, posing as one of the performers aboard the Chariot in order to gather information on the
Moff of the Minos Cluster. (GG6)

Nefta
one of the Emperor Palpatine's closest friends, and a member of the reborn Emperor's Dark Side Adepts. He soon realized that the
Emperor's continual rebirth through the use of clones was not what it seemed to be. Along with Sa-Di, Nefta formulated a plan to
destroy all of the Emperor's clones and trap his Dark Side energies in the netherworld forever. Following the reborn Emperor's death on
Byss, both Sa-Di and Nefta began destroying the clone vats. Before they could finish the job, however, they were both killed by Sedriss.
Unknown to both of them at the time, Palpatine had already entered a new clone body. (DE2)
Neftali
this frozen ball of ice is the second planet of the Socorro System, orbiting just outside the planet Socorro. Two kinds of ice from the
planet were mined as a commodity by the Socorrans, who get little water from their desert planet. Pure-water ice was used in the
preparation of zsajhira berry tea as well as Socorran raava, while nether ice was used as a coolant. It was believed that Neftali was
forced into its wide, erratic orbit when Sokor expanded into a red giant. The new orbit, which brought Neftali near to Socorro, created a
new seasonal pattern on Socorro. Like Socorro, Neftali is seismically active, and volcanic lava below the surface kept the Beija Seas
liquid despite the frigid temperatures. (BSS)
Neftali'I
this was the Socorran name for the planet Neftali. (BSS)
Neftat
this Socorran term is believed to be based on an Old Corellian word which meant "home out of the desert." (BSS)

Negate
this was the most serious form of duel recognized by the Phosphura Belt Pirates. In a negate duel, two opposing factions of a pirate
company find themselves at odds with each other. Their contention threatens to tear the pirate band apart, thereby threatening the
company as a whole. Each faction chooses a champion and up to four aides, with the champion most often being the leader of the
faction. No energy weapons were allowed, and the duel ended when one of champions was defeated. This form of duel was most often
invoked to choose a new leader when a pirate gang does not have a clear successor. (PP)
Negatron
an explosive substance used in bombs and other detonation devices. (CSW)
Negollup
this Aqualish bounty hunter was typical of his species: rude, abrasive, and itchy for a fight. Known as Scrapper to other hunters,

Neile Janna
this famous opera singer was a native of the planet Adarloon. (SWAJ)
Neimoidia
this planet, located in the Colonies Region, was the homeworld of the Neimoidian race. (IG1, IWE1)
Neimoidian
this race of aliens resembles the Duros in many physical respects. They have smooth, greenish skin and large, red eyes, although the
Neimoidian eye has a pupil which splits it horizontally. They also have a more developed cranium, which is studded with small knobs
and bumps. Their mouths are down-turned, giving them a perpetual frown. On their homeworld of Neimoidia, they live in communal
hives from the time of their birth, but are given limited access to food sources. This helps weed out the weak individuals at a very early
age, as those grubs which can’t find food – or steal it – quickly die. This method of raising their young instills tremendous greed into the
young Neimoidians, but it also forces them to become organizational. In general, the Niemoidians are entreprenurial, but are also lazy
cowards. They have developed one of the most advanced droid technologies in the galaxy, and use automatons for everything. They
developed droid chairs, droid starships, and entire droid armies. They are also very conscious of rank and position, and use all methods
of clothing to describe their status. Elaborate headdresses; the cut, color, and texture of the cloth; and the collars and trim of their
clothing all have specific indications of rank and position. The Neimoidians developed the Trade Federation several decades before the
Battle of Naboo, hoping to increase trade to the Outer Rim worlds while maintaining an equitable balance between the poorer worlds of
the Rim and their richer, Coreward kin. When the Old Republic began taxing the trade routes between the Core and the Outer Rim, the
Neimoidians and the Trade Federation were outraged, but their whining could do little to repeal it. They found an unusual ally in Darth
Sidious, but the Sith Lord only used them for his own schemes. In the end, following the Battle of Naboo, the Neimoidians were
disgraced on a galactic scale. (SW1, IG1)
Neira Shai
this Yuuzhan Vong warrior, a relative of Shedao Shai, was killed when Corran Horn and Ganner Rhysode rescued the slaves being
held by the Vong on Bimmiel. (DTO)

hunt down Warlord Zsinj. She was the younger sister of Vula Nelprin, and was also personally trained by her father in hand-to-hand
combat. Her father, an irascible man, had faked his own death in order to avoid Imperial entanglements and led to Ingo to raise his
family. She used this skill to help the Wraiths become better ground agents, especially in preparation for their activities against Warlord
Zsinj. She was assigned the position of Wraith Ten serving as Myn Donos’ wingman, after the losses of Eurssk Thri’ag and Falynn
Sandskimmer. She assumed the identity of Qatya Nassin as part of the Hawk-bat Independent Space Force, and was supposedly killed
in action during Warlord Zsinj's attempt to steal the Razor's Kiss, In actuality, she commandeered a TIE Interceptor and landed atop the
Razor's Kiss' shield generator platform. Once the New Republic forces were arrayed in a constraining pattern, Shalla destroyed one of
the Super-class Star Destroyer's shields. Voort saBinring knocked out the other, and the Razor's Kiss was destroyed by the Republic's
forces. For her part in this and other missions, Shalla was promoted to Lieutenant following the battle over Kuat. (IF)
Nelprin, Vula
this woman served the New Republic and a hand-to-hand combat specialist. Trained by her father, she trained the Republic’s
commandos and other operatives in the art of fighting without a weapon, and was known to be an excellent –though physical - teacher.
(IF)
Nelroni Marauders
this ancient group of pirates was based on the planet Voon until they took control of the Hyabb-Twith Corridor, nearly 1,000 years after
the Great Sith War. They preyed upon the ongoing feud between the governments of Hyabb and Twith, and eventually the Marauders
established a base on Dachat. The Old Republic demanded that the Jedi Knights step in and remove the Nelroni threat. In what
became known as the Hyabb-Twith Campaigns, the Jedi eventually rooted the Nelroni out of their bases on Voon and Dachat. The
battles wages for several years before the Jedi - led by Arca Jeth - managed to eliminate the Nelroni threat. (TOJC)

which were used to house the dishomed peoples of the galaxy. The planet was discovered by the Empire mere months after being set
up, and then-Captain Bren Derlin organized a squad of Alliance personnel that had to evacuate civilians as well as military personnel.
Derlin eliminated the Imperial threat and captured an Imperial transport ship. This action gained him the rank of Major. (MTS)
Neo-Fundamentalist Phlangites

this was the ruling family of the city of Keremark, during the New Order. The Neolsse family was decidedly anti-Imperial in their political
stance, and strove to throw off the Imperial yoke of control during the height of the Galactic Civil War. They controlled Fortress
Keremark during this time, using it to strike back at the Imperial forces which tried to control the planet Risban. (HAS)
Neoman, Barse
this Imperial Captain trained at the Academy on Corulag before being stationed on the Sisar Run, under the command of Governor
Newen Streeg. He commanded the Ion Storm, and resented being subordinate to Streeg, who wasn't even a Navy man. He was known
as a collector of Expansionist Era art, a fact which became known to the crimelord Sprax shortly after Neoman was posted on the Run.
Sprax's agents made contact with Neoman, and he was soon on the payroll of Black Sun, providing valuable information on Streeg's
plans for the Sisar Run in return for credits and pieces of art. It was Neoman and his small fleet who captured Morturr Heth and the
surviving Disac pirates when they attempted to hijack the Destination: Adventure! shortly before the Battle of Endor. (SSR)

this was one of the strongest planets of the Freeworlds Region of Tapani Sector, during the height of the New Order. It was covered
with oceans, although the sea bed was rich in natural ores. The settlers of the planet established huge, floating cities from which they
launched mining operations. Excavation of the planet's solid surface has revealed that a sentient civilization once existed on the planet,
but was slowly swallowed up by the rising ocean levels during a warm period which melted the polar ice caps. The ocean floor was
littered with the ruins of their cities. (PGT)

Nereus, Wilek
a native of OrulShai III, Nereus hoped to one day take over the Imperial governorship of Gyosha. However, due to a bureaucratic error,
he was instead named Imperial governor in charge of the Bakura system. Despite a long series of protested and petitions, the error was
never corrected and Nereus remained on Bakura. Fearing that he had angered a superior, Nereus ruled the system via the tenets of the
Tarkin Doctrine, using the fear of reprisal to keep the locals in line. He also authored a report to Emperor Palpatine himself, detailing the
need to completely subjugate the Outer Rim Territories, but there was never a response. An avid hunter, he collected the teeth of all the
major predators he has beaten, including humans. Shortly after the Battle of Bakura, Nereus was killed when he attempted to execute
Leia Organa. His shots were deflected by Luke Skywalker, and struck him in the chest. (TB, TBSB)
Nereus nereus
this was the scientific name of the KyLessian feather mite, named for Wilek Nereus, who discovered it while examining the KyLessian
fruit bat. (TBBS)
Nerf
a pack animal, it is also a source of meat. Once native to the planet Alderaan, these rangy creatures have curved horns and long fur.
Their muscular bodies are lean and supple, and they have a nasty temper. Their long fur mats and tangles easily, creating a mass of
hair that colects everything it touches. Thus, the nerf carries a strong odor around with it. The shepherds that raise nerfs - referred to
simply as nerf herders - are looked upon as lesser members of society, but when they bring their meat to market they live like kings.
The fur of the nerf is often carded into wool, for use in making warm jackets and leggings. (ESB, JS, ISU, TPS)

Neris
this man was an Imperial sub-prefect during the rise to power of Emperor Palpatine's clones on Byss. An administrator of the
Governor's office on Korbin, Neris succeeded Bergless as the sub-prefect, but was no less adamant about eliminating crime. Like
Bergless, this cost Neris his life, when he told Gornt Seron that crime wasn't going to be tolerated by the Imperial remnant on the
planet. Seron promptly pushed Neris out a small trap door in the floor of his office, and Neris fell some 500 meters to his death. (GG11)

depression in the middle of the city. (IC)
Nespis VIII
a planet near the Cron Drift, where Luke Skywalker first met Kam Solusar. A sprawling space city orbits the planet, which is located in
the Auril System, developed millennia ago by the Jedi Knights as a place where politics and bureaucracy had no place. Scientists and
scholars could come to the station to debate and explore without concern for which side actually owned the discoveries. The station
eventually became so big that it had its own interior weather patterns. It had been around since before the Great Sith War, although
much of the spaceport was abandoned after the Clone Wars, and the city became a drifting derelict. Rumors abound about the
existence of a vast, ancient, Jedi library somewhere on the station, and even the very existence of the station was considered a legend
until shortly after the Battle of Yavin. The library supposedly contained volumes which contained all the knowledge of the galaxy. As
rumors of the library spread, treasure hunters flew to the station to recover some of the ancient tomes. In this supposedly abandoned
location, Borborygmus Gog developed his Nightmare Machine, in an effort to pry a person's deepest fears from their minds and turn
them against them. He used the legends of the Jedi library to attract minds, hoping one day to capture a being who was strong with the
Force. When the reborn Emperor Palpatine destroyed the New Republic's Pinnacle Base, the Republic's leaders fled to Nespis VIII to
regroup. It was at this time that Anakin Solo was born on the space station city. The location of the base was betrayed by a spy, and
the Emperor fired his Galaxy Gun at it. However, the projectile did not explode upon impact, and Nespis VIII was spared for some time.
The Republic was able to evacuate the space city before a second projectile was launched. This one exploded as planned, completely
destroying the Nespis VIII spaceport. (DE1, DE2, EE, GOF4, GOF5)

this former Imperial Captain served under Warlord Zsinj during the period following the Battle of Endor and the breakup of the Empire.
A native of the planet Broest, he was an expert in hand-to-hand combat, and was requested to test the Hawk-bats' skills in this area
before the assault on Kuat. In a brief melee, Qatya Nassin - the alias used by Shalla Nelprin - broke his nose and quickly incapacitated
him. It wasn't the first time his nose had been broken, and Netbers considered it another battle scar. He was assigned to the security
force left behind at Binring Biomedical, after Zsinj abandoned it and brought the labs aboard the Iron Fist, and nearly captured Wraith
Squadron on Saffalore. However, Hohass Ekwesh caught and managed to break his right shoulder and his neck by swinging Netbers

Star. She flew with Gray Two during the battle. (CCG11)
Nether Ice
this was the name used by Socorran native to describe the ice they "mined" from the planet Neftali. Because of the mineral
concentration within the frozen water, nether ice remained in a frozen state for many months in even the warmest conditions, and was

Neuro-shock Hand
this cybernetic prosthesis from BioTech is more of a weapon than a bionic limb. The hand is equipped with a series of repulsor-field
generators connected to a neuro-trigger in the palm. When the hand is jabbed at a target and makes contact, a full-force repulsorfield is
generated from the hand, inflicting damage to the target. This action is continually active, so someone with the Neuro-shock Hand could
cause pain and damage even if they accidentally run into someone. (CFG)

Guild's founders, Marjan and Feras Neuvalis. (GG10)
Nevana
this Dubravan woman's father owned a huge debt to the bounty hunter Sarma. She hoped to pay it off by providing Sarma with the
location of Luke Skywalker, so that he could collect the Imperial bounty on Luke's head. However, she was unaware of who Skywalker

power source in his cybernetic arms to electrocute Nevik in front of the entire bridge crew of the Devastator. (SWJ12)
Nevil
a Captain in the New Republic Navy, Nevil served as one of Rogue Squadron's pilots during the early stages of the war with the
Yuuzhan Vong. Note that this may be a mistake, as Dark Tide: Ruin indicates Kral Nevil was a single pilot. (DTO, DTR)
Nevo
this scruffy human and his gang were hired by Darth Vader to hunt down Boba Fett, while the bounty hunter was tracking Abal Karda.
They had been imprisoned on Coruscant, and Vader offered them a chance to redeem themselves if they took the job. They were able
to intercept the Captain of the Port-Esta Queen and gather information about Karda'a location, then set out to find Fett. Unfortunately,
Nevo and his gang were no match for Fett's skills, and all were killed by the bounty hunter on Maryx Minor. (EOE)
New Alderaan
a lush, temperate planet that was repopulated by the descendants of Alderaanian-born members of the Alliance. It was one of the
Alliance's best-hidden safe worlds. After the birth of the New Republic, it served, for a time, as the hiding place for Jacen and Jaina
Solo. Princess Leia also returned there, during the many battles with the clones of Emperor Palpatine, to give birth to Anakin Solo. Note
that The Courtship of Princess Leia says Zsinj ravaged the planet, but Dark Empire II has Imperial forces under Xecr Nist laying waste
to it. (RASB, CPL, DE2)

instance of a Bothan-only battle with the Empire. New Cov has no indigenous sentient species, but it is a jungle world full of plant life
and valuable natural resources. The planet's cities are walled and domed. The planet's primary industry revolves around the jungle's
exotic flora, which produce various biomolecules with commerical value. However, many of the plants have adapted to this threat and
have become dangerous to the harvesters. The planet has a normal rotation of about 27 hours, and it's year lasts 301 local days. (DFR,

Bakura, the New Republic reaffirms many of the Old Republic's basic tenets, and also establishes some new ones. These new beliefs
are aimed toward eliminating the beliefs which brough the Old Republic down. It was first headed by Mon Mothma, and later by Leia
Organa-Solo. At the time of the Yevethan Great Purge, the New Republic had 400 sentient species on 11,000 inhabited worlds as
members. The symbol of the New Republic reused the blue crest of the Alliance, which signified the burning desire to restore justice to
the galaxy. Surrounding it were fifteen stars that signified the galactic community. A thin golden border surrounds the circular seal,

Nhar'qual
named for an Old Corellian term which literally meant "dark death," this huge sand well was found within the Adsila Rifts of Socorro. It
was rumored to be bottomless, and the original colonists used it as an exeuction site. The rift was too narrow to fly a starship into, but
sensor probes launched into the rift have transmitted froma depth of 450 kilometers before they were lost. (BSS)
Nharqis'I
this area of space was known as the "death place" by many races. The word "Nharqis'I" was actually a modification of a smuggler's
term for a killing field. The Nharqis'I is a starless, featureless section of the galaxy which was forbidding in its blankness. (TFNR)
Nharwaak
one of the two predominant civilizations found on Mylok IV, the Nharwaak and their neighbors, the Habeen, had developed a small
hyperdrive system which would enable a TIE Fighter to have supralight capabilities. The Nharwaak, however, was decidedly against
selling the technology to the Empire. A number of battles erupted in the Mylok System as Admiral Zaarin tried to obtain the hyperdrive
technology. When the Habeen sold the technology to the Empire, the Nharwaaks attempted to get the technology to the Alliance, but
was not successful. (TIE)

Nhoras
this alien race had a 600-year-old feud with the Clatear race, a feud which five generations of Jedi Knights couldn’t resolve. When the
Empire took control of the galaxy, they subjugated the Clatear whule leaving the Nhoras relatively alone. Thus, when the revelation of
the Caamas Document brought the feud to a head once more, the Nhoras were unrpepared for the Clatears’ initial attacks. They began
hiring mercenaries - most notably the Dhashaan Shield - to protect them from harm. (SOP)
Ni toi darama
this Yevethan phrase translates into "the Blessed comes to us." It was chanted and sung by the Yevetha when Nil Spaar arrived in
Hariz, after the successful extermination of several Koornacht Cluster worlds during the Yevethan Purge. (SOL)
Ni'Shaw
this deity was one of the many gods worshipped by the ancient Unfyr Warriors. Ni’Shaw was a minor god, and represented both war
and wisdom. According to legend, Ni’Shaw only had two prophets, whereas all other Jydan deities had three prophets. Ni’Shaw was
therefore doomed to be forgotten until he found his third prophet. Thus, the leader of the Ni’Shaw-Dak Ministry was referred to as the
Third Prophet. Worship of Ni’Shaw rose to prominence through the work of Kaltor Naklian, who founded the Ni’Shaw-Dak Ministry.
(AIR)
Ni'Shaw-Dak Ministry
this religion was founded by Kaltor Naklian, and was a derivative of the Jydan religion of the Unfyr Warriors. It was also the most
prevalent religion on the planet V'shar. This religion was dedicated to the worship of Ni'Shaw, who fell out of favor among the Jydan
after their downfall. Despite Ni'Shaw's minor position among the Jydan gods, the Ministry gained a great following and eventually
commanded enough power to influence the government of V'shar. The Ministry was led by a its Third Prophet, who was supported by
twelve Al'ma'den priests. Individual ministries were run by Shafar priests. Despite his loyalty to the Zulirian Swordmasters, Kaltor
maintained separate accounts for the Ministry, and never let the two missions interfere with each other. Among the Ministry's primary
laws were the ideas that wisdom was gained through vanquishing one's enemies, and that the best warriors were those who were
mightiest in sword and mind. (AIR)
Niado Duegad
this mercenary creature was native to the planet Vodran. Duegad’s culture controlled its environment with terraforming activities. His

Nield
this young man, a native of Melida/Daan, was the leader of The Young when Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi arrived on their planet
to seach out Tahl. His parents were Daan, although he had disavowed any affiliation to either faction. His father, Micae, led his three
oldest sons into battle. Micae was forced to leave Nield home because he was too young at the time. All four men were killed in an
unremembered battle. His mother was killed shortly afterward, and Nield lived with his cousin. His cousin was killed shortly afterward in
another struggle for control of Zehava, and she was just seventeen at the time. He joined The Young after meeting Cerasi and
understanding why she lived apart from her parents. Nield's skills in battle and his ability to ecognize and teach strategy earned him the
position of the leader of The Young. He agreed to help the two Jedi locate and rescue Tahl, creating a diversion while Cerasi led the
Jedi to Tahl's position. Nield used the animosity between the Daan and the Melida to create the illusion of a Daan attack on a Melida
sector. The feint was successful, and The Young eventually defeated their elders. Nield was named governor of Zehava, but was
unaccustomed to leadership during peaceful times. He demanded that the Halls of Evidence be destroyed, despite a lack of support
from his cabinet and to the exclusion of other, more vital activities like providing food and shelter for the inhabitants of Zehava. His
resolve was shattered when Cerasi and Obi-Wan petitioned for the cessation of the destruction, and The Young began to splinter along
many different lines. After Cerasi's death, Nield exiled Obi-wan from The Young. However, when Obi-Wan revealed Mawat's plans to
oust Nield from power, he decided to avenge Cerasi's death by re-establishing peace. He and Obi-Wan managed to defeat Mawat's
forces when Qui-Gon showed them all a hologram of Cerasi, pleading for peace shortly before her death. Nield then agreed to form a
more cooperative government, working in concert with the Daan and Melida elders to rule the planet. (DOD, UP)
Nieler, Jor
this middle-aged, heavy-set man worked with Aarica Vost, posing as a starship parts dealer at Rordan’s Spaceship Parts and More. He

Nien Nunb
this Sullustan was tall for his species, and was a loyal worker for SoroSuub until it aligned itself with the Empire. He was a trade runner
for the corporation, using his stock light freigher Sublight Queen to move raw materials and minerals to outlying systems. He met Lando
Calrissian on one of his many missions for SoroSuub. When the Empire grew to power and SoroSuub claimed its allegiance to the New
Order, Nien Nunb fled from Sullust and joined the Alliance. Nien Nunb's greatest achievement came during the Battle of Endor, when
he was assigned to be Lando's co-pilot the Millennium Falcon in the assault on the second Death Star. He later assisted Han Solo in
the rescue of the planet Vandelheim from Imperial control, helped defeat the Godoans, and again flew the Falcon against the N'Gai.
Following Grand Admiral Thrawn's death, Lando approached him with an offer to help mine Kessel's spice mines for a limited share of
the mines' profits. Nunb saw the logic behind employing races which naturally lived beneath the ground to legally mine spice, and
agreed to serve as Calrissian’s Chief Administrator. Together, they turned Kessel’s entire operation into a legitimate business,
supplying spice for medicinal and other legal uses. (ROTJ, COTF, EGC, CCR)
Nierer's Folly
a game of chance played in many backwater casinos. (SWJ14)
Nieuth IV
this planet is located in the Wyloff Sector, which is part of the Colonies region. (CRO)
Niev Jaub
this Sullustan was an honest trader who did a large volume of business on Nar Shaddaa. He and his ship, the Bnef Nlle, were on the
Smugger’s Moon when Admiral Greelanx began his attack. Because of his business ties, and because Nar Shaddaa supported a large
contingent of Sullustans, Jaub joined the fight. He got caught in no-man’s-land when he mistakenly followed Falan Iniro out of hiding
before the rest of Nar Shaddaa’s defense forces were ready. Jaub saw Iniro and the Take That! destroyed by the mistake. Jaub
managed to take out a few TIE Fighters that launched from the Carrack-class ships that made up the Imperial picket line before
sustaining damage himself. Rather than die without fighting back, Jaub piloted his small freighter - the Bnef Nlle - on a collision course
with the Vigilance. The impact destroyed the smaller ship and killed Jaub, but the cruiser was defenseless after losing its shields. (THG)
Nigel III
this planet was located in Kira Sector. (SS)
Nigel IV
the fourth planet in the Nigel System, this world is located along the Enarc Run. The natives of Nigel IV are a peaceful people, and only
formed a republican government at the insistence of the natives during the New Order. It was at this time that Nigel IV became involved
with galactic trade, and the influx of travelers and spacers brought crime to the world. The laws and penal system of Nigel IV have been
very strict since the Galactic Civil War, and have been successful in keeping the planet crime-free. A cool planet covered with flat plains
and vast glaciers, Nigel IV rotates once every 20 standard hours, and orbits its star once every 325 local days. (TSK)
Night Beast
a huge, humanoid creature left behind by the Massassi to keep Yavin 4 safe until they could return. It is depicted in The Sith War as a
huge, red-skinned humanoid with skied scales and horns, while Classic Star Wars depicts it as a large, fish-like humanoid with sharp
claws and fangs. Classic Star Wars holds that the ancient Massassi created the besat to guard the temples against an enemy takeover,
but The Sith War simply showed Exar Kun and the Massassi placing in the depths of the Great Temple as a guardian. It was held in
suspended animation until Admiral Griff launched his atack on the Alliance base on Yavin 4. A TIE Bomber crashed on moon,
penetrating the Great Temple's lower levels and cracking the beast's suspended animation capsule open. It then began to roam the
tunnels of the temple, destroying Alliance equipment in what it believed was the fulfilment of its purpose. It had some use of the Force,
and used it to shield itself from energy weapons. When Luke Skywalker discovered the creature, he and R2-D2 were able to drive it
away by using the Force to lure the beast into a space transport. They had programmed the transport for auto-jump, and once the night
beast was inside, they initiated the launch sequence. The beast was sent into hyperspace. One of the random jumps performed by the
transport brought the beast back to Alliance space. This time, through the Force, Luke explained that the beast would eventually find its
former masters by getting onto the transport. (CSW, TSW)
Night Caller
one of the CR90 corvettes under the command of Apwar Trigit, the Night Caller was heavily modified from its original specifications
during its initial design. The bow was widened and much of it gutted to allow for a small TIE fighter hangar, while the topside hold had
been enlarged to act as storage hold for skimmers. One of the turbolaser turrets on the bow was replaced with a capital-ship tractor
beam. The Night Caller was dispatched to destroy the New Republic's base on Folor using Empion mines. While it succeeded in
knocking out much of the base, the Night Caller was captured when the Wraith Squadron pilots created the Lunatic and lured the Night
Caller in to capture it. Voort saBinring was hidden inside, and when the Lunatic was drawn into the ship's hold, he managed to take
control of the bridge and take the ship for the New Republic. The crew was so taken by the surprise of Voort's attack, that they didn't
wipe out its computer memory banks, nor did they get off a distress call to Trigit. The Night Caller's flight logs led the Wraiths to several
of Zsinj's holdings. Since the warlord and Trigit were unaware that the ship had been captured, Wedge Antilles and Choday Hrakness
continued to respond to their orders, and then had the Wraiths fly in after and seemlingly attack them. The Night Caller was later
reassigned to another Republic flight group and renamed the Ession Strike. (WS, IF)
Night Creatures

create illusions, luring their prey close enough to pounce on it. They were supposedly wiped out during the Clone Wars, but Luke
Skywalker encountered the demon Reist on Lapez 3. (CSWDW)
Nightmare Machine
this attraction was found on Hologram Fun World. As an amusement attraction, the machine allowed visitors to enter a large room that
was initially dark. As the visitors entered, the machine scanned their brain to discover their worst fears. It then displays a vividly-
accurate hologram of those fears. It was discovered that the machine was the creation of Borborygmus Gog, and was used to quell
rebellious individuals. This was all part of Project Starscream, and the machine was an experiment aimed at providing Gog with a way
to use a being's deepest fears as a weapon against them. The Nightmare Machine itself was actually a bioengineered construct,
genetically created by Gog. This technology was eventually modified to create the biological weapon known as Eppon, which Gog used
against several Alliance soldiers on the planet Kiva. (GOF4, GOF6)
Nightseer
this avian was native to the planet Ruan. When the Salliche Agricultural Corporation began retooling its operations in hopes of pleasing
the Yuuzhan Vong, it genetically altered nightseers to be wingless and mute, and used them to create droppings which were later

Nightshadow
this was a series of anti-sensor baffling produced by Arakyd. This form of countermeasure was used to baffle, or deaden, the various
emissions of a starship, including engine exhaust and communications. A smoother, more rounded hull was more effectively baffled
than an angular hull. (PP)
Nightsisters
a clan of Dark Side witches on Dathomir, the Nightsisters were created by Gethzerion following her own exile. It is rumored that
Palpatine feared their power, so he had the planet interdicted and used atmospheric bombardment to destroy any ships on the planet.
They are noticeable by the way the blood vessels near their eyes have ruptured from their rage, and from their use of the Dark Side.
They made a deal with the Imperial Warlord Zsinj for a transport ship with which they could escape Dathomir, but they were destroyed
by Luke, Han, and Leia just as their ship tried to leave Dathomir. (CPL, CTD)
Nightstinger
this weapon, produced by Xerrol, was a model of sniper’s blaster rifle. It was well-known among weapons experts for the fact that it fires
an invisible bolt. Despite this advantage, the weapon had several drawbacks. First, a canister of the special blster gas it required cost
well over 1,000 credits. Second, each canister had only enough gas for up to five shots before it had to be replaced. Lastly, the
canisters were specially designed, and only fit in certain weapons. It was created by the Empire for use in taking out specific targets.

members and return to Ukio. (HAS)
Nikaede Celso
this female Wookiee was a constant companion of Drake Paulsen, and served as the first mate aboard the Steadfast. Huge even for a

Nikkos Tyris
this Anzati was one of the most powerful of the Saarai-karr leaders of the Jensaarai, who discovered some ancient Sith teachings
during the Clone Wars. He and his companions were dispatched Nejaa Halcyon and Ylenic It'kla, but not before Halcyon was mortally
wounded when Tyris drove his azure lightsaber through Halcyon's chest. Halcyon, though dying, absorbed all the energy from Tyris'
lightsaber and used it to create a fist-like projection with the Force. Halcyon used it to crush Tyris. The other Jensaarai accompanying
him was the husband of a Jensaarai who would become the next Saarai-kaar on Suarbi 7/5 and confront Corran Horn. (IJ)
Nikta
this frothy, powerful alcoholic beverage was created by the Nikto race. (GG12)
Nikto
a humanoid alien race which evolved into five distinct branches on the planet Kintan. They are an ancient specis, being one of the three
races signed into servitude to the Hutts during the battle against Xim the Despot. The Nikto are characterized by their leathery skin,
reptilian eyes, and fierce temperments. All five races are genetically capable of interbreeding; 93% of the offspring from such unions
resemble only one of the parents. There were a number of environmental and geological changes that greatly affected life on Kintan,
causing the once-singular Nikto race to evolve its five unique races. Chief among these changes was the radiation expelled by the
nearby star M'dweshuu. The Red Nikto, called Kajain'sa'Nikto, evolved in the deserts. They have ridged foreheads, eight small horns
around the eyes, and two at the chin. They breath through a permeable membrane over their mouths and through four breather tubes
on their necks. The Green Nikto, known as Kadas'sa'Nikto, evolved in the forests. They are visibly scaled, with obvious noses and small
horns ringing their eyes. The Mountain Nikto are called Esral'sa'Nikto, and have smooth skin. Their ears are large and fin-shaped,
designed to be extended or pulled flat to regulate body heat and enhance hearing. They also have a nasal membrane similar to the Red
Nikto. The Pale Nikto, called Gluss'sa'Nikto, are found in the islands of the planet. They resemble the Green Nikto, with fin-like ears.
The last race, called M'shento'su'Nikto or Southern Nikto, lack any horns but have a number of breather tubes at various points on their
skulls. Their inner strength and fierce nature has been honed over millennia of survival against the predators of Kintan. This led to four
intense civil wars which nearly destroyed Kintan some 30 years before the Nikto helped the Hutts defeat Xim. The Hutts then distributed
the Nikto to various worlds as bodyguards and strongmen. The Nikto developed atomic-level technology on their own, and absorbed
galactic technology from the Hutts. They have remained under Hutt control for over 25,000 years, for the most part remaining neutral
throughout the various battles between the Empire and the Alliance. (ROTJ, TOJ, GG12, SWAJ)
Nikto Kajidic
this modified Imperial Customs Frigate was owned and operated by Ga'p'tashi. It was armed with four heavy laser cannons, a heavy ion
cannon, and a tractor beam projector. (PP)
Nil Spaar
this cunning Yevethan was in charge of the Yevethan workers at the Imperial shipyard known as Black-15. While there, he plotted to
overthrow the Imperials and take control of the shipyards for the Yevethans, and bided his time working under Jian Paret. When the
official order to evacuate the shipyards and destroy its ships was issued, Spaar heard it almost as quickly as Paret did, and put his
plans into motion. The Yevethan workers gained access to the spaceworthy Imperial craft, and slaughtered their crews. Nil Spaar
personally executed Jian Paret and took control of the Intimidator. With his plan under way, Nil Spaar and the Yevetha retreated into
the Koornacht Cluster to repair their ships and plan the next phase of attack. The next phase began twelve years later, and would be
known among the Yevetha as the Great Purge. Nil Spaar went to Coruscant to discuss a mutual relationship between the Yevethan
Duskhan League and the New Republic with Leia Organa-Solo. Spaar carefully avoided an alliance while probing for weaknesses in
Leia's government. Spaar wooed certain New Republic Senators who opposed Leia's ideals, and through them sowed seeds of unrest
in the Senate. When Leia discovered the missing Black Sword Command, Nil Spaar again called the Yevetha to act, and used a
carefully orchestarted series of events to his own ends. He twisted the events to appear as if Leia were the agressor and himself an
innocent victim, while launching a wave of extermination throughout the Koornacht. The Yevetha wiped out any non-Yevethan
settlements, keeping intact any strategic mines or businesses. Nil Spaar then retreated to N'Zoth to enjoy the fruits of his labors.
He used the New Republic’s HoloNet communications network to bombard the citizens and Senators with slanderous accusations
against Leia, and he fostered relationships with several disgruntled Senators. He also place Belezaboth Ourn on Coruscant, and the
set-up provided him with a great deal of advanced information on the Republic’s moves with regard to the Yevetha. When the Republic
decided to send Han Solo to command the Fifth Battle Group, Spaar ordered that Solo be captured, as a way to bring Leia under his
control. At the same time, he began breeding with several Yevethan females, hoping to ensure his immortality through prodigious
offspring. Taking some of the advice of Tal Fraan, Spaar kept a group of prisoners - taken from each of the worlds the Yevetha purged -
on the Pride of Yevetha. This assured that the Republic would not take direct action against him, for fear of harming innocent captives.
Among the captives was Han Solo, but Chewbacca and Lumpawarump were able to penetrate the Star Destroyer and rescue Solo.
During the rescue, the Wookiees also destroyed many of Spaar’s mara-nas casks. This series of events angered Spaar into taking
foolish actions, which led to his eventual defeat at the Battle of N’zoth. Unbeknownst to Spaar, the Imperial officers he had kept
prisoner ever since the Yevetha took control of the Black Sword shipyards were also rising up against him. Led by Sil Sorannan, the
Imperials took control of several Yevethan warships during the Battle, including the Pride of Yevetha. Sorannan, wanting to kill Spaar
outright but also wanting Spaar to suffer for his actions, forced the Yevethan leader into an escape pod as the Super-class Star
Destroyer travelled through hyperspace toward Byss. The pod was ejected into hyperspace, and Nil Spaar was never heard from again.

Nim Abek
this red Nikto was a pirate who worked for the Nalroni crimelord Sprax. He chose to shorten his full name - Nim'abek'shy-wedell - to
make it easier for non-Nikto to communicate with him. He began his career as a freelance pirate working the Sisar Run, until his gang
preyed upon one of Sprax's starships. The vigo brought him in, and Nim Abek was surprised when the Nalroni offered him a job instead
of executing him. Since then, Nim Abek has been given command of some 100 pirates, plying the spacelanes of the Sisar Run. He
maintained a shadowport just beyond the intersection of the Sisar Run and the Ac'fren Spur, known as Abek's Station, to further his
own goals. When he learned that information about Black Sun's operations along the Sisar Run were up for sale by Limna Yith, Abek
tried to obtain the information before Sprax learned of it, in order to lessen Sprax's stature in the eyes of Prince Xizor. (SSR)

snobbish, but they place great value in knowledge and ethics. Native to the planet Nimban, they evolved from herbivorous creatures
faced with increasingly resilient plant species. They have become highly adept at solving complex puzzles and questions, and turned to
mental battles when many races would have initiated wars. They have been instrumental in the Bureau of Ships and Services and
various banks throughout the galaxy, although they were once expelled from the BoSS when an ancient Nimbanel threatened to harm a
BoSS family. They managed to merge back into the BoSS arena with the help fo the Hutts, who regularly employ Nimbanese as
accountants and negotiators. (GG12, CCG)

Nimondro
this Hobor was the leader of his people, and represented them at the peace talks conducted by the Tion Hegemony. He had a deep
hatred of the Troobs, and chose to speak only Tahlboorean in their presence. This was a ploy by Chief Nimondro, for he could
understand and speak fluent Basic, but held onto this trump card to gain the upper hand against the Troobs. Nimondro also controlled
Mount Yeroc, and used it to demonstrate his powerful position during the negotiations with Counselor Harthan. His daughter, Larka,
was the light of his life, and when she was framed for the murder to Ket Krax, he was furious. When she told him that she was in love
with Ket, he realized she was innocent, and prepared to use sky cannon inside Mount Yeroc to defend against an impending Troob
attack. However, C-3PO and R2-D2 were able to convince him to let them use the sky cannon for its true purpose while exposing Jake
Harthan as the killer. Nimondro then agreed to work with the elder Krax to hammer out a real peace agreement. (DRPC)

this is the second and primary world in the Nirauan system, located in Gradilis Sector. It was here that Faughn and Mara Jade plotted
the course of the strange starships which began showing up around the time of the discovery of the Caamas Document. Jade went to
investigate, and was stranded on the planet. A dim red star is the central body of the system. Nirauan istelf is a drab, seemingly lifeless
world wen viewed from space, with dull browns and grays dominating the surface. The planet was covered in vegetations, however,
although the normally green color had given way to the duller colors in order to survive in the pale light received from its sun. The rocky
strata of the planet is riddled with veins of cortosis ore. Hidden deep in a cave, Jade found the entrance to a huge fortress which was
similar those located on Hijarna. Inside the cave, she found a group of mynock-like creatures that seemed to communicate by sending
thoughts through the Force. They later revealed themselves to be of two races, the Qom Qae and the Qom Jha. They registered a

making a weapons run to Derra IV, and commandeered the crew to perform a mission for him. He was working with Grand Admiral
Thrawn - who was disguised as Jodo Kast - to smoke out the agents of Black Sun on Corellia. They were successful in the mission,
having usurped the services of Haber Trell and Maranne Darmic, who were transporting Riij Winward and Rathe Palror to Derra IV
along with a cache of weapons. The second part of Thrawn's plan involved the tampering with their cargo, placing homing beacons
within the various crates to help determine their destination. This allowed the Empire to track the Alliance to Derra IV shortly before the
Battle of Hoth. (TFE)

Nish
this sentient race of near-humans is native to the planet Nishr. They were subjugated by the Empire during the height of the New Order,
and were reluctant to assist the Alliance Special Forces unit which arrived on the planet. They allowed the group - which became
known as the Nishr Taskforce - to set up bases on the planet, but remained neutral in the conflict in order to avoid Imperial retribution.
The Nish were in a period of industrial revolution at the time of the Battle of Yavin. (ROE)
Nishr
this Outer Rim planet was initially scouted by a team of Alliance SpecForce Wilderness Fighters and Pathfinders, who eventually
established a base on the planet and became known as the Nishr Taskforce. They were originally just gathering intelligence on the
Imperial presence on the planet, but became a fixture in an effort to harass the Imperials into leaving. The Imperials had garrisoned the
planet just nineteen months before the Battle of Yavin. It was a temperate world of rolling plains, low mountains, and the occasional
desert. (ROE)
Nishr Suppression
this was the name given to the campaign in which Governor-General Vin Kollis and his Imperial troops wiped out a large portion of the
Nish population in order to secure the Imperial garrison on Nishr, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. (ROE)
Nishr Taskforce
this Alliance Special Forces unit was made up of a pair of Wilderness Fighter platoons and a Pathfinder platoon. They were the first
group to scout the planet Nishr, which eventually became their home base. A SpecOps mission group and an Intelligence agent were
attached to the taskforce for unusual support. The taskforce was under the command of Fisk Csino during the Galactic Civil War. Their
mission was defined after the original scouting party discovered the large Imperial presence on the planet. Their commanding officers
deemed it important for them to remain on Nishr and harass the Imperial garrison, in an effort to draw reinforcement to the planet from
other worlds. This would have allowed the Alliance to promote other actions during a lull in Imperial forces elsewhere. The mission was
poorly planned, but forged moderate success over the years. (ROE)

invasion. He was not supportive of Luke Skywalker's plans to re-establish the Jedi Council, in order to better control the actions of the
growing Jedi population. Many rumors spoke of Niuk Niuv's own ties to the smugglers that the vigilante Jedi led by Kyp Durron were
taking out of business, and hinted that his dislike of the Jedi was based more on lost profits than anything else.When Leia Organa Solo
petitioned the Senate to address the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, Niuk Niuv accused Leia of trying to deflect the issue of the renegade Jedi
with wildly exaggerated views of the threat. Later, when it was learned that the Yuuzhan Vong planned to attack either Corellia or
Bothawui, Niuv argued that Corellia be left undefended so that Bothawui could be saved. (VP, DTO, JE)
Nive, Jacob
the captain of the CR90 corvette Backstab, Jacob Nive was one of the few Eyttyrmin Batiiv pirates to survive the Imperial attack that
destroyed them. Nive was a young but shrewd tactician who fiercely hated the Empire. The survivors of the Eyttyrmin pirates rallied
around Nive, who earned their respect. He was a tall, well-built man with long, blond hair he drew into an impressive braid. The
Survivors retreated to Elrood Sector, and established a foothold there by raiding Imperial convoys destined for Derilyn and Berea.
When he first met Shondra Del, Nive was suspicious as to her motives. However, when she identified herself as a member of the
Alliance, Nive began working with her as part of Operation: Elrood. His assistance ended with the destruction of the Brazen, and the
Khuiumin Survivors went back to raiding Imperial convoys. When Corran began taking strides toward defeating the Invids, he was
joined by Luke Skywalker in an effort to destroy Leonia Tavira and rescue Mirax Terrik from Suarbi 7/5. Before they left, they confided
in Jacob their subterfuge and their plans, and offered him a chance to redeem himself and the Survivors as members of the New
Republic. Nive greatly accepted the chance, and left Invid service. (GG9, OE, IJ)

a super-hot planet located in the Athega system, its mantle and core are rich in metallic ores. Due to its proximity to its sun, the surface
of the planet is uninhabitable. Lando Calrissian modified an idea proposed by Ecclessis Figg, and used a mobile mining operation to
only mine the dark side of the planet. Its rotation period is about 90 standard days long. Grand Admiral Thrawn attacked the planet
twice. The first attack was aimed at obtaining some of Lando's mole miners for use in the attack on Sluis Van. The second was an
attack to neutralize a primary source of ore for the New Republic. Lando was ready to rebuilt his Nomad City mining operation, but he
los the planet in a sabacc match. The planet's rotational period lasts 3,527 standard hours. Thus, the planet's "year," one complete orbit
around its sun, lasts only 5 local days. (HTTE, HTSB, JS)

exploded, stranding the entire party on Hoth. They were later discovered by Luke Skywalker and Callista, who were on Hoth trying to
regain Callista's powers. He was injured in a Wampa attack, and was later killed in yet another attack, this one inside their base. (DS)
Noe'ha'on
this planet is home to the Noehon race, as well as the k'lor'slug. (GG12, CCG)
Noehon
a race of four-armed insectoids from the planet Noe'ha'on, the Nohehons have a savage culture. They stand on two legs, and they are
covered with bristly hairs. The eyes of a Noehon are multi-faceted, with each facet having a specific range of vision. Some facets are
used for detailed analysis, while others are for detecting motion. They exude a strong scent from glands in their cheeks, and use this
scent to mark their territory. A pair of strong mandibles surrounds the Noehon mouth. They are excellent climbers. The Noehon race is
obsessed with order and discipline, and are focused on maintaining heirarchies in their society. Their family groups are known as
Welds, and consist of a dominant, alpha male ruling up to fifty females. The females have their own hierarchy.This hierarchical society
leads many off-world Noehons into the slave trade. It has also led to a large amount of fighting for position in the overall society. The
Noehons never achieved a high level of technology, and were planet-bound when they were discovered by the Old Republic. (GG12)

operative for the Alliance, working with Colonel Arik Stijhl’s team at the drop point in the Free Port. Nofre kept her involvement with the
Alliance a secret from her brother, as he held no support for the Alliance. To ensure that she wasn’t discovered, Nofre acted for the
Alliance under the pseudonym Talana. Her skills were in gathering information, which she readily supplied to Stijhl and his team.

Noghri
this race was held subservient by the Empire. They were known for their guerrilla techniques. Individual Noghri were short in stature,
with needle-sharp teeth, steel-grey skin, large dark eyes, and protruding jaws. They were nearly wiped out when two starships battled
over the surface of their homeworld of Honoghr. One of the ships was destroyed, and plummeted to the ground, releasing noxious
chemicals and rendering much of the planet uninhabitable. The entire battle was only a ruse, however, perpetrated by Emperor
Palpatine as a way to reduce the will of the Noghri and bend it to his own uses. The Emperor dispatched Darth Vader to offer
assistance to the Noghri, who were only too happy to accept. The price for their salvation was that they had to send their sons to
Palpatine for use as silent commandos. Palpatine had all knowledge of the Noghri erased from the Imperial databases in order to
heighten the effect of his commando teams. When Princess Leia discovered the Emperor's plan and was able to show the Noghri how
they had been tricked, the Noghri quickly began recalling its sons from their commando teams, and joined the New Republic's struggle
against the remnants of the Empire. In the aftermath of Thrawn’s death and the destruction of the Mount Tantiss storehouse, the New
Republic worked with the Noghri to restore Honoghr’s ecosystem. However, the damage inflicted by the Empire proved to be too much
to overcome. The Republic, and a poetic form of justice, gave the Noghri the option to resettle on Wayland. Many of the Noghri clans
made the move, taking up residence on Wayland alongside the Psadans and the Myneyrsh. (HTTE, DFR, SOP)

of her missing head-tail. It was rumored that she was Oola’s sister. She grew to power as the leader of the Diversity Alliance, and
sought the location of the Emperor’s Plague as a quick way to rid the universe of the human race. She paid Bornan Thul to transport it
to her, but he disappeared with the datadisk and had to be hunted down by the likes of Boba Fett and Zekk. When she finally located
the Imperial storehouse, Bornan tried to stop her. With the help of the yougn students of Luke Skywalker’s Jedi Academy, Tarkona was
nearly captured. In the firefight between their forces, several of the Imperial plagues were unleashed, including the Emperor’s Plague
and a virus dangerous to Twi’leks. Both Bornan Thul and Nolaa Tarkona contracted one of Evir Derricote’s viruses in the plague
chamber, but Tarkona managed to escape with Raabakyysh. They fled the storehouse, but Tarkona was too ill to notice that the young
Wookiee had blindly jumped into hyperspace. Raaba landed on a remote world and quarantined them both, until Nolaa died of her
virus. She hoped that the virus would eventually die, and become harmless to the rest of the galaxy. (SHA, TEP)
Nolaan
this man was, at one time, the Imperial Captain in command of the Interrogator. He was also the mentor of a young officer named

Nolan, Alikka
this young woman worked with Ketrian Altronel at Arginall Refinery, during the time when the Empire controlled the natural resources of
the planet Hargeeva. She served as the plant’s personnel supervisor. She longed to be part of the resistance in Arginall City, as her
brother had been imprisoned in one of Nial Pedrin’s labor camps. For this reason, she threw in her lot with Stevan Makintay when he
returned to Hargeeva. She was captured, along with Mak and Ketrian, during an Imperial raid on the Lantern Inn, and was subjected to
intense interrogation. She died when the drugs administered by Nial Pedrin overloaded her heart. (SWJ8)

supported within Wildwater City's environs. (WSV)
Noloth
this member of the H’kig colony on L’at was believed to have been captured when the Yevetha took control of the planet during the
Great Purge. Noloth was supposedly held on the Pride of Yevetha in order to deter attack by the New Republic. In reality, Noloth had
escaped on the Star Morning before the Yevetha arrived. Noloth’s presence on the Star Destroyer was an illusion generated by Enara
to fool the Yevetha. (TT)
Nolyds, Burr
this gaunt, white-haired man served on the Imperial Interim Ruling Council. Nolyds was one of the Council members who supported
Carnor Jax and the plans he had for eliminating Emperor Palpatine, for the Emperor kept all of his supporters on short leashes. After
Jax was killed on Yinchorr, Nolyds took control of the Council. He opposed Feena D'Asta's plan to make peace with the New Republic,
despite the legitimacy it would bring to the Council. He was killed when he returned to his quarters after a long debate with D'Asta, and
found a message disk in his rooms. When he activated it, it exploded, killing Nolyds instantly. (CE2)
Nom Anor
this shadowy, black-armored figure worked behind the scenes of the Imperial Interim Ruling Council. He used Xandel Carivus as his
agent, and predicted that Carivus would be elected to lead the Council after Nolyds was assassinated. Nom Anor spoke with a raspy
hiss, which strengthened his evil image. He claimed to be in charge of the dealings on Ord Cantrell, and that the murders which
plagued the Council were within his plans. However, General Immodet was soon poisoned, and not by any of Anor's agents. He
claimed to be unconcerned about the rumors of Kir Kanos returning. Nom Anor became known to the New Republic several years later,
when he emerged as the spiritual and political leader of the Rhammamoolians. Nom Anor made no effort to hide his hatred of the New
Republic and the Jedi Knights, and preached about abandoning technology in favor of looking for the truth in the nstural elements of
life. In response to his charismatic personality, the Red Knights of Life rose up to further his beliefs. He had managed to incite them to
rebel against their neighbors on the planet Osarian, sparking an intrasystem battle while furthering his own plans. In reality, Nom Anor
was the leader of the advance forces of the Yuuzhan Vong. When he was given the assignment, he showed his devotion to the
Yuuzhan Vong by removing his own eye with the sharpened end of a burning stick. The eye was replaced with a plaeryin bol. He faked
his own death by pretending to be on a diplomatic shuttle dispatched to the Mediator, but he was actually in an A-Wing fighter fleeing to
Sernpidal. The shuttle exploded in the hold of the Mediator, although Nom Anor himself was in another craft fleeing the battle. He was
disgraced upon his return to the Yuuzhan Vong leaders, and was replaced by Shedao Shai. It was later revealed that Nom Anor was a
member of a lower caste in Yuuzhan Vong society, and hoped to elevate his people to warrior status by successfully conquering the
first planets along Vector Prime. His failure almost guaranteed swift retribution. With the failures of Shedao Shai and Deign Lian, Nom
Anor found himself once again in a position of command, leading the forces which destroyed Obroa-skai. He was also part of a growing
faction of Yuuzhan Vong which believed the Jedi Knights were the key to taking control of the galaxy. Nom Anor also took steps to form
an alliance with Borga the Hutt, which provided a minimum of protection for Hutt Space and gave the Yuuzhan Vong their choice of
worlds to use to grow yorik coral. (CE2, VP, DTO, DTR, HT)

Nonakara
this slimy amphibian was found in the lakes and swamps of a number of different planets. Its was mainly herbivorous, but would eat
small insects and fish if needed. Nonakara produced copious amounts of irritating slime from their skins, and the slime helped debilitate
the flora and fauna surrounding the nonakara and allowing it to more easily catch and feed on it. Scientists have also discovered that
the slime contained genetic material, and that two nonakara could interbreed by exchanging slime. This mating required that one
nonakara travel to the other’s body of water, a trip would was perilous for the creatures. In this manner, the two nonakara parents would
each give birth to offspring. These creatures were sometimes referred to as whirling snakes because of the thrashing and spinning a
nonakara performs after it travels to a new body of water. This spinning motion dislodges huge amounts of slime, allowing the nonakara
to disseminate its genetic material. (COG)

Noquivzor
the New Republic used this planet as a staging location for their assault on the Imperial base on Borleias. Borsk Fey'lya later used the
arid world as the site from which the Republic's councilors would plan the assault on Coruscant. Fey'lya knew that many of the
councilors would dislike the planet's dry polen-filled atmosphere, and that would put them on edge and at odds with each other. He then
stepped in to "reconcile" the situation, gaining his own advantage in the proceedings. The renegade Impreial warlord, Zsinj, took his
fleet there to eliminate the Republic outpost, following the capture of Borleias by the Republic. He was too late, and only destroyed
empty buildings. It was believed that Tycho Celchu was killed in the battle, shortly before the New Republic attempted to liberate

Nord, Dren
this arrogant young man was a native of the planet Alderaan. The son of two politicians, Dren was educated at some of the Inner Rim's
best schools. When he accepted a scholarship to a prominent medical school, Dren found himself away from Alderaan when it was
destroyed by the Empire. He joined the Alliance, and was recruited to be a medic with the Special Operations team. The loss of his
family on Alderaan hardened his spirit, and his bedside manner and respect for his superiors were both poor. He found himself having
to pull political strings to get transferred to a more prestigious area. However, after learning that he could provide expertise in high-
combat missions where the real work was being done against the Empire, he retracted his request and was assigned to T'Charek
Haathi's shipjacking team. He bristled at having to take orders from a younger officer, and discovered that he lacked the skills to give
them in combat situations. After Haathi’s team survived the attack of a Doom Slayer droid on Gelgelar, Nord left the team to work with
Colonel Stijhl’s team. He was replaced by Stijhl’s field medic, Maglenna Pendower. (SWJ13, SWJ14)

this burly adolescent was the leader of the Lost Ones, and underworld teenaged gang on Coruscant. Norys looked the part of a bully,

agents from the Shadow Academy went to Coruscant to search out Force-sensitives for training, they also took the members of the
Lost Ones for stormtrooper training. Norys welcomed the chance to prove himself as a stormtrooper, and trained at every opportunity.
His marksmanship grew quickly, but he lacked the discipline essential to a stormtrooper. He did become one of the Shadow Academy’s
troopers, much to the chagrin of Qorl, who trained him. Qorl despised Norys for his lack of respect for his superiors, and their
differences flared up during the Shadow Academy’s attack on Yavin 4. Norys had, by then, learned to fly a TIE Fighter, and went off on
his own to take out the Lightning Rod. Qorl took the opportunity to verbally reprimand Norys and, when the young man failed to listen,
Qorl shot his TIE Fighter out of the sky. (LO, L, JUS)

this was the name given to the entrance to Beggar's Canyon, from the Ebe Crater Valley, on the planet Tatooine. (IWE1)
Notha Dab
this Quarren pilot joined Requiem Squadron shortly after the Battle of Endor. In reality, Dab was Nrin Vakil. The Requiem Squadron
facade was needed to infiltrate Prince-Admiral Krennel's operation. When questioned about why a Quarren would join an Imperial
squadron, Dab explained that he couldn't kill Mon Calamari as a member of the New Republic. (IR)
Nothoiin System
this system is best known for the exquisite carbon diamonds which are found on its planets. (GG2)
Nothos, Bane
Bane Nothos was, at one time, an aspiring Imperial district commander of the space surrounding the Roche Asteroid Field. Nothos was
something of a tactical genius. He was assigned by Emperor Palpatine to shut down Ackbar's Shantipole Project, and given a new
Nebulon-B frigate to maintain control of the asteroids. Nothos then planted Salin Glek in the project as a spy and informant. Nothos
demanded that the Verpine submit or die, but was rejected by Jurfel. He allowed Shantipole to run its course, choosing to take
possession of fully-operative B-Wings instead of just plans and designs. At Salin Glek's notice, Nothos attacked Shantipole, and even
obtained possession of the B-Wing prototypes. He was able to anticipate Ackbar's actions for a time. However, Alliance agents -
including Ackbar - were able to foil his attempt to take control of the project and steal his Nebulon-B frigate. The Shantipole Project was
a complete success for the Alliance, and Nothos was demoted. He was then sent to the Outer Rim Territories to lead a patrol fleet.
While there, he was captured by a group of Alliance spies. He was being transported to an Alliance penal world aboard the Celestial
when he staged an escape. When the transport ship had hyperdrive problems and was lost in Otherspace, Nothos was forced to submit
to the powers of Grand Moff Ravik. They were captured by the Charon ship Desolate and forced to flee the machinations of Ber’asco.
Nothos eventually was killed when a group of Alliance agents - dispatched to take control of the Celestial - tried to rescue the crew of
the transport from Otherspace. The Alliance agents tried to fight the Charon, and Nothos tried to toss a thermal detonator into the
melee to ensure their death. However, the detonator exploded before he could throw it, opening a huge hole in the Desolate. Nothos
and his Imperial subordinates were believed killed in the explosion, but Nothos somehow survived. He was captured and put into
cryogenic sleep, until Ber’asco lost the strange mental battle with Ravik. Ber’asco’s mind then took control of Nothos’ body, and used it
to hunt down Ravik. In a battle on the planet Stronghold, Ber’asco used Nothos’ body to nearly defeat Ravik, but the stronger Ravik
crushed Nothos’ body in his iron grip. Both Ber’asco and Nothos ceased to exist. (SFS, OS, OS2)
Notoganarech
this Elom proved, via physical calculus, that the Alliance was destined to win the Galactic Civil War. Opponents of the use of physical
calculus point out that Notoganarech’s table was pre-weighted in order to obtain the outcome, a result of Notoganarech performing his
analysis after the Battle of Endor was finished. (TT)
Notsil, Lara
this was the alias adopted by Gara Petothel, following her escape from the destruction of the Implacable. She used the alias – that of a
young farm woman orphaned on the planet Aldivy by one of Admiral Trigit’s raids, then forced to be his concubine – to gain entrance to
the New Republic’s starfighter corps. She was approached by Garik Loran and Ton Phanan, both of whom hoped she would help them
expose Colonel Repness’ blackmarket schemes. She agreed, but used her own Imperial Intelligence training to pull the job off better
than they had planned. In the end, Lara was given a position the thirteenth position in Wraith Squadron, which meant that she could
only fly if another member was out of action. During this time, the part of her that was still Gara Petothel longed to return to Imperial
service, and offered Warlord Zsinj the chance to use Lara to gather information about the New Republic. However, after flying with the
Wraiths and seeing the Republic’s operations first-hand, she realized that much of what she believed about the former Alliance and its
people was nothing more than propaganda and lies spread by the Empire. She opted to shed the identity of Gara Petothel for good,
and simply be Lara and a Republic fighter pilot. This image was nearly shattered when Zsinj tried to expose her by planting a false
“brother” of Lara’s in contact with her, but she managed to eliminate the brother with the help of Myn Donos. Lara and Myn had begun a
serious relationship at the time when Garik Loran started to realize Lara wasn't a simple farm girl from Aldivy. After searching the
Republic's records for a name provided by a Coruscant beggar, Loran discovered that Lara was Gara Petothel. Lara fled the Wraiths,
unsure what to do until she realized that she still had an enemy: Zsinj. She returned to the Gara Petothel identity and applied for service
aboard the Iron Fist, claiming to bring with her the knowledge of Wraith Squadron, Han Solo's fleet, and the Republic. In reality, Lara
used her astromech, Tonin, to assume control of hundreds of MSE-6 droids aboard the huge ship, and set up a series of traps that
were designed to bring about its demise. During the battle between Solo's forces and Zsinj's fleet at Kuat, her efforts very nearly
destroyed the Iron Fist. However, they were discovered before any real damage could be done, and she was forced to flee the battle.
Before leaving the Iron Fist, she freed the creatures Zsinj was using in Project Chubar, and the Ewok Kolot volunteered to fly a shuttle
to help her escape. Her shuttle was shot down over Selacron, and it was believed that she died in a crash. She turned up later, on the
planet Coruscant, as Kirney Slane. (IF, SOC)
Notsil, Tavin
this was the assumed name of one of Zsinj's agents. Tavin's background was that he had escaped the destruction of New Oldtown
during some shady dealins in another city. Tavin also claimed to have gotten Lara a job with Lachany Foods. The agent was placed in
the village of Old Newtown in order to draw Lara Notsil - an identity of Gara Petothel - into Zsinj's own plans. However, Lara had made
up her mind to remain with the New Republic. She agreed to meet with Tavin, but was forced to eliminate him when he threatened to
kill Myn Donos and take with him and his companion, Captain Rossik. (IF)

of the Nova Core and then pass an initiation test. (GG8)
Nova Crystals
these precious gemstones are best known because they helped bankroll the first Death Star project for the Empire. Found on several
planets, including Krann, Sarka, and Cotellier, the nova crystals are highly-agitated gemstones which have a unique crystalline matrix.
This matrix, when exposed to bright sunlight (especially in the red color band), absorbs the heat from the light and becomes excited.
This allows the gemstone to glow with its own luminescence, providing a ready light source. If not refrigerated after their removal from
the rocky matrix, the crystals can explode with incredible force. (HSE, TSK, GMH)

Nova Flare
a bombing pattern in which proton torpedoes are dropped on a capital ship in an increasingly wider pattern. The first few torpedoes are
tightly-grouped, and take out the section of shielding they hit. The remaining torpedoes explode in a pattern aorund the initial hole,
causing the ship's shields to attempt to compensate for an ever-widening assualt. The shield generator on most ships cannot react fast
enough to provide power to the growing destruction, and fail. (BW)
Nova Force

this Lantillian Short Hauler had a remarkable history. Originally owned by Tev Driscull, the ship was seized by the outlaw Dharus and
modified for use as an assault gunboat. The Corellian Security Force later captured the ship and refitted it for use in its own operations.
The Nova Whisper was lost when Delt Nerris hijacked it, and the ship turned up in the possession of Lernik De'Yago. De'Yago, in turn,
sold it to a merchant aboard the herdship Bazaar, who stripped it of useable subsystems and put the hulk up for auction. Before
De'Yago sold it, the Nova Whisper was armed with an ion cannon and a pair of concussion missile launchers, and it was equipped with
terrain-following sensors. (SS)
Nova-Drive
this small, Mid Rim corporation manufactured a variety of freighters in systems along the Rimma Trade Route. Unlike the other giants in
the starship business, Nova-Drive didn't design its own ships. Instead, it licensed designs form other firms and created modified version

the precursor to the reliable drives used on the YT series of freighters. They were extremely powerful and reliable, and many starship
captains chose to modify the existing system, rather than replace it, to gain additional power. (SS)
Novar
an Onderonian functionary working for Queen Amanoa, Novar was educated at the Ov Taraba university. His first political role as an
advisor to the king's aide, a position he obtained more because of his father's connections that his own competance. However, Novar
was much more adept that his superior, Tolo Kad, who claimed all of Novar's successes were his own doings. In order to remove Kad
from his position and take it for himself, Novar told Kad that he had completed all the preparations for a state dinner being held by the
King, Ommin. Kad bragged about "his own special preparations" to Ommin, but was shocked to find out that nothing had been prepared
by Novar. King Ommin, in a great fit of rage, destroyed Kad with Sith magic and promoted Novar in his place. Over then next decade,
Novar manipulated Ommin until the king finally began teaching him the Sith magicks. He later served King Ommin after the wasted
Naddist returned to power and captured the Jedi Master Arca. Novar was placed in charge of copying the Sith manuscripts stolen from
the Galactic Museum by Satal Keto and Aleema. (TOJ, FNU, TOJC)

all three planets in the system. (PG1)
Novolek Beacon
this stellar anomaly is located near the Sisar Run, and disrupts virtually all communication in its vicinity. The Beacon is situated bwteen
Nwarcol Point and Sedri. It was known as a trans-dimensional energy streamer, which was a rare sort of pulsar that spewed out matter,
energy, and radiation as it spun. The streamer itself was formed from multi-dimensional, gravitational curves which were invisible in the
electromagnetic spectrum, but acted like a convergence of hyperspace mass shadows. This star was known to the Hutts as the
Grandfather Clock, since it flared outward at a regular interval of 28 standard days, 12 standard hours, and 42 standard minutes.
However, the duration of the flare within that time period varies wildly. (SSR)
Novor Major
this star was the central body in the Novor System. Many millennia before the Battle of Hoth, Novor Major expanded into a red giant,
tearing apart the seventeen inner-most planets in the system. The outer 16 planets survived the expansion, and their environments
were quickly modified by the additional radiation from the star. (SSR)

Nozho
one of the two Bith cities involved in the conflict that left the planet Clak'Dor an ecological wasteland. The strife was the result of a
dispute over patent rights to a new stardrive, thought to be owned by Nozho and Weogar. Nozho investigators blackmailed the neutral
arbitrator in order to sway his decision, while Weogar's mayor refused to honor the falsified decision. Both cities began producing the
stardrive, and the increased trade competition led to the first Bith war in a million years. Nozho struck first, launching a chemical attack
that wiped out most of Weogar's population. Weogar's retailiation was a biological weapon that mutated the genetic structure of any life
form it contacted, leaving Nozho a desolate land filled with genetic monsters. The survivors were forced to build hermetically-sealed
cities in order to survive the devastation. (GG4)

to be learned. She once traveled to Krayiss Two to learn more about the Sith magicks which used the dark side of he Force. There,
after encountering an ancient Sith-preserved spirit, she realized that the dark side of the Force was extremely powerful, and that it was
a separate entity from the light side. The spirit showed her the forms of several Jedi Masters it had captured, and she tried to defeat it.
She was consumed by the spirit of the Sith, forced to spend eternity wrapped in the pain and torture of their magic. (TOJC)

bringing a quick wit and florid personality to the heavy-handed pilots. To keep his skin moist,and to remind him of homeworld, Nrin wore
a specially-designed flight suit that was filled with seawater. Nrin found a fast friend in the Mon Calamari Ibtisam, and they were
constantly at each other’s throats, arguing opposing sides of any debate with relish. During Plourr’s attempt to reconstruct the
monarchy of Eiattu, Nrin and the Rogues were on hand to prevent any warfare. Nrin was injured during an Imperial ambush ordered by
Moff Leonia Tavira. After recovering, Nrin again proved a valuable member of the Squadron during the search for the Starfaring, when

programming was implanted into his brain which compelled him to destroy something. That something would be named within a key
phrase that would trigger the programming. Just before the Republic responded to the distress call at Jussafet Four, the cook Galey
activated Tualin's programming with a short phrase. Tualin was compelled to do everything in his power to destroy the Mon Remonda.
He nearly succeeded, blowing a huge hole in the command bridge and killing a number of crewmen. Tualin was killed in combat by
Tyria Sarkin. (SOC)

Nyantolo
1) native to the waters of Wyndigal 2, this large mammal was a filter-feeder that consumed swamp debris, algae, and small fish as it
moved through the water. The body of a nyantolo was covered with a heavy, plated carapace which is formed from a sticky secretion
produced by the animal’s body. Bits of debris sticks to the fluid, and over time it builds up to form the “shell.” The average nyantolo
measured 3-5 meters in length, yet only lives a few years. Reproduction among nyanolo is a communal event, as there are three
distinct sexes among them and all three are needed for reproduction. This creature was originally named for the scout who
inadvertently discovered them. A Rodian, Nyantolo was knocked from his feet a swipe from one of the creature’s long fins, and died
when the beak of the creature crashed down on his skull. (COG)
2) this Rodian scout was killed on Wyndigal 2 when he discovered a huge, aquatic beast later known as a nyantolo. The Rodian got too

located on the Smuggler's Moon of Nar Shaddaa, this cantina was the site of Doune's most famous sabacc victory. He "won" one final
hand against Kinnin Vo-Shay, obtaining the human's obsidian amulet in the win. Doune believed the amulet provided Vo-Shay with
unending luck, and hoped to become a greater sabacc player with it. Unknown to Doune, the amulet was simply a gift from one of Vo-
Shay's old girlfriends. Vo-Shay actually gave the game to Doune, holding a sabacc but allowing it to pass. He did it for two reasons:
first, to escape Doune's wrath; and second, to recover the lightsaber Nyo wanted so badly. (TFNR)

him. Nyklas had been using - and mistreating - a group of Wookiee slaves he had obtained from the Trandoshan slaver Ssoh. During a
mission to obtain more Wookiees, Nyklas found that his contact’s ship was disabled. He ordered Han and his flight of TIE Fighters to
take out the ship, but Han discovered that there were Wookiees still alive on board. Nyklas ordered Han to kill the survivors, but Han
rebelled against this senseless slaughter. He freed one of the Wookiees, named Chewbacca, and was immediately reprimanded by
Nyklas. Han was quickly given a dishonorable discharge and blacklisted as a pilot. (THG, C)
Nym
this Feeorin was known as a pirate who ambushed ships from a secret base on the Naboo System, although the base's location was
never discovered. Nym piloted his ship, the Havoc, during the Battle of Naboo, helping the Naboo break the Trade Federation's
blockade and helping restore trade to the system. This allowed Nym to continue his piracy as well. (OWS, SFT)

Nyo
a native of Morado, this young man wanted become a Jedi Knight so badly that he tried to scrape up enough credits to buy a lightsaber
on Nar Shaddaa. In desparation, Nyo entered into a sabacc match with the Herglic gambler Doune, and lost all but a single credit. Nyo
was "rescued" by Kinnin Vo-Shay, who wagered the last credit and eventually won more than 200,000 credits from Doune. Nyo and Vo-
Shay then traveled to Nar Shaddaa to purchase the lightsaber, which Nyo had already secured with a downpayment, only to find that
Doune had beaten them to the Smuggler's Moon and purchased the weapon out from under him. Nyo was enraged and dismayed, until
Vo-Shay offered to try and win the weapon from the Herglic in a winner-takes-all sabacc match. Vo-Shay purposely lost the match,
giving Doune the amulet he wore around his neck as the winnings. Doune then gave up the lightsaber, claiming that he no longer
needed it. Vo-Shay then introduced Nyo to the real source of his luck, the disembodied Jedi Master Aryzah. Aryzah and Vo-Shay asked
Nyo to join them as part of their crew, agreeing to help Nyo learn more about the Force. (TFNR)

garrison. He attempted to make a great deal of credits by recovering the datacards which contained the plans to the first Death Star,
then selling them to Ysanne Isard. However, his plans were thwarted when Isard sliced into his computer systems and redirected his
troops. Moranda Savich and Garm Bel Iblis managed to recover the plans, leaving Nyroska with nothing but Isard's wrath. (TFNR)
Nyrvona
this planet was the second planet in the Ylesian system to be colonized by the Besadii kajidic as a religious retreat. Like its
predecessor, Ylesia, Nyrvona was touted as a religious holy-land, but would really become a ready source of processed spice and
slaves. (RD)

O-Bin
this severe Keganite woman was a teaching in the Learning Circle, some fifteen years before the Battle of Naboo. When Obi-Wan
Kenobi and Siri was falsely declared truant and sent to the Learning Circle, O-Bin found herself fighting against their knowledge of the
galaxy. O-Bin adhered strongly to the General Good, and believed all the lies told to her by V-Tan and O-Vieve. Much of her time was
spent administering demerits to Obi-Wan and Siri, who continually questioned her authority and her information. (FFT)
O-Iris
this Keganite girl was a student at the time Obi-Wan Kenobi and Siri were held on Kegan. (FFT)
O-Lana
this young Keganite child was born nearly thirteen years before the Battle of Naboo. She was discovered to be strong with the Force,
and her parents secretly made contact with the Jedi Knights on Coruscant, against the wishes of Kegan's rulers. After the Jedi arrived,
O-Lana was kidnapped and taken to the Relearning Circle where she was controlled by V-Tan and O-Vieve. All records of her birth and
existence were wiped from Kegan's computers, in order to keep the child hidden and convince the Jedi to leave. However, the Jedi
padawans Obi-Wan Kenobi and Siri rescued O-Lana, and the child eventually was trained on Coruscant. (PP)
O-Melie
this Keganite woman was married to V-Nen. Together, they gave birth to a daughter, who was named O-Lana. They discovered that
their daughter was strong with the Force, and contacted the Jedi Knights on Coruscant despite the possible destruction of the Common

O-Vieve
this ancient Keganite woman ruled the planet with V-Tan some thirteen years prior to the Battle of Naboo. They were known as the
Benevolent Guides, and revered the prophesies which claimed that a visitation by the Jedi Knights would destroy Kegan society. To this
end, they perpetuated the belief in the General Good and kept Kegan isolated from the rest of the galaxy. O-Vieve herself was
somewhat precient, and had visions of the purge of the Jedi Knights and the legions of stormtroopers enforcing Emperor Palpatine's
New Order. Unfortunately, Qui-Gon Jinn and Adi Gallia - the two Jedi Masters on Kegan to determine the Force sensitivity of O-Lana -
couldn't believe that such an evil force would one day take control of the galaxy, and ignored her visions. However, as the Jedi revealed
more and more about the greater galaxy, the Keganite population began to doubt the rulership of O-Vieve and V-Tan. In the end, the
populace voted to overthrow the Benevolent Guides and join the Old Republic. (FFT)

of the Maelstrom to sell when Rodin Higron won the rights to the planet in a crooked sabacc match. Higron saw the success that the
Riders were having pirating ships that drop back to sublight speeds near the Maelstrom, and set up his own piracy operation based on
Oasis. Big Jak Targrim, the leader of the Riders, once planned to crash the Kuari Princess into the planet, hoping to rid himself of the
nuisance of Higron's pirates. The attempt failed when Alliance agents on board the luxury liner were able to overtake the Princess's
navigational controls and steer it away. (RM)

Ob Fortuna
this Twi’lek, a distant relative of Bib Fortuna, served Cradossk as the majordomo of the old Bounty Hunters Guild. Just as oily and
conniving as his relative, Ob Fortuna worked behind the scenes with several other hunters, including Cradossk’s own son, Bossk, to
overthrow the Trandoshan and take some profit in the effort. Ob had meticulously dug out peepholes in the walls surrounding
Cradossk’s throne in the Guild’s main headquarters, allowing him to monitor the old Trandoshan’s activities. While not the only
majordomo Cradossk ever had, Ob Fortuna had remained in position the longest by ensuring that his master’s wishes were always met.
However, after Cradossk was killed by his own son, Bossk, Ob Fortuna fled the Guild and tried to find work somewhere else. He
booked transport with N’dru Suhlak, hoping to reach a safe haven before one of the bounty hunters discovered his treacherous ways.
Unfortunately, Suhlak was apprehended by Boba Fett near Uhltenden and boarded. Ob Fortuna was so scared of being taken back to
the bounty hunters that he strangled himself with a piece of cable before he could be taken by Fett. However, Fett’s bounty was paid
whether Fortuna was dead or alive. Fett took the Twi’lek’s head for proof, and blew the rest of the body out of an airlock into space.

Trauger came to Socorro to locate a target in Cjaalysce'I, he threatened to kill Oceke's mother - and another woman every minute - until
a tribesman agreed to act as his scout. Oceke was forced to join Trauger, but never forgot the other man's threats. Instead, it was
Trauger who underestimated Oceke, for Oceke led them to Cjaalysce'I via a section of the northen desert which was dotted with
pockets of deadly gases. Once within sight of the city, Trauger gave Oceke a blow to the head as payment and let Oceke behind.
Shortly afterward, Trauger was killed by the deadly gases. Upon hearing of Oceke's bravery, the Socorrans named the deadly gas

Odan-Urr
a reptilian Jedi Master, Odan-Urr was a grey-skinned alien who was assigned to assist Empress Teta in securing the seven systems,
and he was also given the task of being the watchman of the Koros System. Descended from a race of fierce predators, he
communicated by telepathic means, contacting all his people through the Force, rather than speaking. Odan-Urr was trained by the
ancient Master Ooroo, and was content to simply study the history of the Jedi and the Sith before being dispatched to the Empress Teta
System. It was Odan-Urr who had a vision of Marka Ragnos’ death and the chaos that would result from it. He was taken to Coruscant
by Empress Teta, in order for him to alert the Old Republic to the danger. Unfortunately, the Republic ignored Odan-Urr’s vision,
claiming it was the delusion of an untrained Knight. Teta, however, was not as demeaning, and mustered her own armed forces to
prepare for a Sith attack. Odan-Urr joined his own Master, Ooroo, in the defense of Kirrek against Naga Sadow’s Dark Side forces.
When the tide began turning to the Sith forces, Ooroo sacrificed himself to kill them off with the cyanogen atmosphere in which he lived.
His dying words to his student were prophetic, telling the young Jedi that he would become one of the most ancient Jedi ever. Odan-Urr
then stood by Empress Teta’s side during the Great Hyperspace War, and assisted in the destruction of Naga Sadow’s Sith Empire.
After searching the wreckage of Sadow’s ship, he found the Sith Holocron and took it with him to Ossus, where he helped create the
huge Jedi library there. Odan-Urr later presided over the Jedi Assemblies for more than 600 years prior to the assembly on Deneba to
discuss the rising Dark Side tide and the Krath. It was Odan-Urr who taught Nomi Sunrider how to block another person from the Force.
Odan-Urr was the Jedi keeper of antiquities, and possessed a rare Sith holocron. His possession of the dark holocron did not go
unnoticed by Exar Kun, who killed Odan-Urr while stealing it. (DLS, TSW, GAS, FOSE)

into the business of owning a restaurant was to make money and have power. (WSV)
Oddo, Astri
this woman was the daughter of Didi Oddo, and helped him maintain and operate the family cafe in the Senate district of Coruscant,
some twelve years before the Battle of Naboo. Although she hated the fact that her father dealt equally with Senators and criminals,
Astri herself was not above using whatever means necessary to keep the café running. She knew that her father's friend, Fligh, worked
in the Senate Chamber, so she paid him to pass along hints about Didi's Café, in order to secure parties for the city's elite. However,
Fligh was killed after stealing both two datapads: that of Senator Uta S'orn for Helb and that of Jenna Zan Arbor. As a result, the Oddo's
found themselves pursued by a mysterious, Sorrusian bounty hunter. Astri was hurt in a struggle, but not seriously, shortly before the

friend and informant to the Jedi Knights of the era. For many years, that was all the kept Didi going, since the food at the café was less
than appealing. Didi accepted Astri’s help in improving the food and the atmosphere. He was caught up in the events surrounding the
death of his friend, Fligh, and the appearance of a strange and dangerous Sorrusian bounty hunter who tried to kill him. Qui-Gon Jinn
and Obi-Wan Kenobi tried to help Did and Astri remain safe, including moving them to Duneeden temporarily. Didi had won a small
place in the Cascardi Mountains in a sabacc match with Helb, so they decided to hole up there. However, the bounty hunter trailed
them to Duneeden, and nearly succeeded in eliminating the Oddos. If Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan hadn’t traveled to Duneeden themselves,
Didi might have been killed instead of badly injured by the Sorrusian. (DH)
Odenji
this aquatic race is related to the Issori, and are also native to the planet Issor. The Odenji suffer from an intense sadness known as the
melanncho, which is so strong it can make the sufferer go insane. The disease didn't affect the Issori, who came to be the dominant
population on Issor. The Odenji differed from their cousins in several respects, mainly their breathing apparatus. Where the Issori had
olfactory wrinkles in the place of a nose, the Odenji had four horizontal flaps of skin which provided the sense of smell. Their mouths
were located beneath their chins, where the Issori mouth was located at the front of their face. After the devastating effect the
melanncho had on their population, the Odenji allowed the Issori to manage their planetary colonies, but retained an equal
representation within the Tribe of Odenji. (SWJ13)

this Imperial Army General had survived more than his share of engagements during the rule of Emperor Palpatine, and was seriously
considering retirement when he was approached by Grand Moff Tarkin. Tarkin offered him a command position, serving under Admiral
Daala at the Maw Installation. Odosk accepted, seeing the assignment as a way to end his career quietly, but with distinction. He was
responsible for boarding T'nun Bdu's CR90 corvette in the Cauldron Nebula and placing 12 thermal detonators in the ship's power
plant. These were used to destroy the ship, after it was allowed to send a distress signal to the New Republic. (DA, JASB)
Odrion, Mors
this young Alliance dignitary and his aide, Rekara, traveled to Sedri to gather information on the Imperial garrison there. They stumbled
onto the struggle between the priests Karak and Cardo over control of the Golden Sun. They were captured by Karak, who used his
piece of the Golden Sun to steal information from Mors' mind. Rekara managed to escape and returned to Sedri with a rescue party.
They were able to defeat Karak by scattering the Golden Sun's polyps across the oceans of Sedri, breaking its link to his mind. As Pek
and Fala began working toward repairing Sedrian society, Odrion decided to remain on Sedri as the Alliance's representative, and to
keep an eye on the Imperial garrison. Shortly after the Empire left Sedrian, Mors Odrion was elevated to a position of leadership among
the Sedrian, and was instrumental in helping Pek deflect the battles between Limna Yith and the bounty hunters sent to recover her.
(BGS, SSR)
Odumin
Odumin was a Tynnan skip-tracer working in the Corporate Sector Authority. He found rapid advancement within the confines of the
Authority, using his abilities as a delegator to have humans do his work for him while he remained anonymous. He remained so
anonymous that rumors that he was really Emperor Palpatine in disguise began to surround him. Odumin reached the level of
Detached Duty agent for the Auditor-General, and saved the Grand Inquisitor Torbin fro assassination by agents of the Church of the
First Frequency. He was promoted to a staff position, and Torbin suggested a larger reward. Odumin declined, liking his anonymity to
remain more or less intact. He worked his way up the Authority ladder to become the territorial manager for the area near Bonadan
after singelhandedly taking out the Xiochi slaver gang. His demeanor has been described as greatly humanitarian, and he is known as
a decent administrator. He was nearly killed in an assassination attempt by the Malrom Family, so Odumin hired Gallandro to take care
of them. It was shortly after this incident that he started building his slavery operation. It was at this time that Fiolla found small inklings
about the operation, and began her investigation. Odumin thought that Han Solo was Zlarb, and when he tried to leave Bonadan
aboard the Millennium Falcon, Odumin thought it was Zlarb trying to skip out on him. He tried to drug Han and immobilize him, but Han
proved more resourceful. Odumin was forced to assume the guise of the skip-tracer Spray, who helped Chewbacca fly the Falcon to
Ammuud. There, Odumin attempted to wrap up the loose ends created by Han Solo. He revealed that Fiolla was working for him, and
that he had tried to use the Reesbon clan to help with his slave traffic. The Ewwen's father - the Mor Glayyd at the time - saw this as a
possible betrayal of his clan, and tried to work a deal with him. He was poisoned, once Han discovered the connection, and the plot to
kill Ewwen was put into motion. (HSR, CSA)

Ody Mandrell
this reptilian Er’Kit was born on the planet Tatooine, and was later considered one of the Outer Rim’s best podracer pilots. During the
Boonta Eve Classic race in which Anakin Skywalker emerged victorious, Ody Mandrell’s XL 5115 podracer was disabled in a crash and
had to come in for repairs. Pit droid DUM-4 was sucked into the port-side engine when it suddenly flared up, and the damage caused
by the foreign body ruined the engine. He eventually got the damage repaired and returned to the race, but was knocked off the course
by Sebulba and driven into Anakin’s pod. The two racers became entangled, and when they finally freed themselves, Ody’s ship flew
out of control and crashed. (TPM, IG1)

Forethought, on the planet Ropagi II. Any visitors to the planet must pass through the processing center there, before they can move
about on the planet. After the fall of the Empire, the native Ropagu imported mercenaries to help keep the peace, and these
mercenaries were the only visitors allowed to leave the island. To tourists and other non-mercenary visitors, the rest of Ropagi II was
off-limits. Mercenaries were trasnported to Ropagis for registration and debriefing. (TSK)

Oggzil
this creature was created by the Yuuzhan Vong, after the initial stages of their invasion of the galaxy. Oggzils were created to join with
villips in order to enhance their communications abilities. Oggzils were fed a diet rich in metals, which they could digest and use to form
their skeletons. This ability to assimmilate metals and form skeletal material from them allowed the Yuuzhan Vong to employ the oggzil
as a living communications antenna. The Yuuzhan Vong then attuned the oggzils to the frequencies of the New Republic. This allowed
the alien invaders to broadcast their messages on the Republic’s frequencies via villips, without actually using mechanical technologies.

Okeefe, Platt
this strikingly beautiful young woman was one of the galaxy's most famous smugglers. Platt was the daughter of parents who were
members of one of Brentaal's more prominent trading houses. She was supposed to attend the commerce academy and learn about
the family business, but the idea of being a stuffy businesswoman didn't appeal to her. After several boring years at school, she packed
her meager belongings and hitched a ride aboard the Starlite Cloud. After two years on the Starlite Cloud, she crewed on the Ravelev
for two years before joining the Klatooinan Trade Guild as a pilot. She owned the YT-1300 known as the Last Chance. Early in her
career, Platt was captured and enslaved by Big Quince. A chance meeting with a fellow slave named Tru'eb Cholakk brought her a
chance for escape. The two plotted against Big Quince, eventually stealing his personal shuttle and escaping captivity. Platt later repaid
Tru'eb for his help, and the two developed a strong friendship. Platt often worked for the Alliance and the New Republic, but was by no
means allied with them. She and Tru'eb often worked alone, although they often hired additional help as needs demanded. Shortly after
the Battle of Endor, they teamed up with Dirk Harkness while working on Zelos II, when they became aware of the Imperial presence on
the planet. They tipped off the New Republic to the location of the garrison, and Harkness went in to ensure the base was cleared out.
However, the Republic's team was wiped out and Harkness was captured. Platt and Tru'eb both believed Harkness was worth rescuing,
so they infiltrated the garrison and rescue him, along with Jai Raventhorn. (SWAJ, SWJ9, TFNR, CRO, PSG)

a tall, thin alien with a wide, flat head and pointed ears, he was an early partner of Baron Pitareeze, when the Baron was trying to get
his shipbuilding business off the ground. When Greck realized that the Pitareeze Cruiser was a great ship, he stole the plans and built
his own ship, claiming it to be the original. When Greck's ship failed, he begged the Baron to help fix it, but the Baron refused. Greck
was angry at the Baron, and blamed the ship's failure on the Baron's intervention. The Pitareeze Cruiser was never built by either party.
Since then Greck runs a series of illegal operations on or around Hosk Station. He was responsible for reprogramming a 3PO unit into
C-3PX, a killing droid recognizable by the 3PX on its breastplate. He was finally caught on Hosk, trying to steal a load of ash ore. He
was nearly destroyed when a detonation he had rigged was defused, but he managed to escape. Unit Zed enlisted C-3PO and R2-D2
to track him down in the Corellian system. They eventually caught up to Greck at Boonda the Hutt's palace. There, B-9D7 had
attempted to discredit Boonda, but was exposed when B-9D7 was destroyed by Jace Forno. Greck tried to use the death of B-9D7 to

battle cruisers. He was forced to limp the ship to Tatooine for repairs, but eventually got Amidala to Coruscant. While en route, Ric
brought young Anakin Skywalker into the cockpit and taught him about the working of the starship. Later, during the Battle of Naboo,
Ric led Bravo Squadron against the Federation’s droid control ship. With the unexpected help of young Anakin, they were able to

this man was the king of the planet Onderon some 350 years after the start of the Beast Wars, shortly before the Great Sith War. Like
his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather before him, Ommin took control of Onderon and ruled through the use of the Dark Side of
the Force. He became enthralled by Freedon Nadd's teachings, and when the spirit of Nadd approached him, Ommin allowed the Dark
Jedi to grow in power. When the Jedi Knights were dispatched to Onderon to put an end to the Beast Wars, Ommin was revealed as
Freedon Nadd's descendant. He carried some of the Dark Side ability with him, and his marriage to Queen Amanoa helped to bring out
the Dark Side in him. Following the death of Amanoa during the intervention of Jedi Master Arca and his Jedi Knights, Ommin went into
hiding, and was kept alive by mechanical means. Only his daughter, Galia, and a few trusted advisors knew he was still alive. When
Arca came to Ommin to request help in recovering the stolen remains of Freedon Nadd, Ommin drew on the Dark Side of the Force to
capture Arca. Ommin used the Dark Side to reach out to Satal Keto and Aleema, who had stolen Sith artifacts from the Galactic
Museum on Coruscant. However, the artifacts couldn't save Ommin from the pureness of the Light Side, which had led Ulic Qel-Droma
to his underground lair. Qel-Droma defeated Ommin with a swift slash of his lightsaber, crumpling Ommin's mechanical armatures and
reducing the withered king to a formless mass of flesh. The spirit of Freedon Nadd, set free by the use of the Sith artifacts, finished
what Ulic had started by taking Ommin's soul. (FNU, DLS, TOJC)

Onahk
this reddish-gray-colored creature was native to the temperate marshes of Ossirag, where they live in nomadic herds. Onahk preyed
upon the aquatic birds and reptiles of the planet, picking them from the surface of the water. Onahks measure a meter in length and
over two meters in height, with much of their height attributed to their long necks. They move about on six thin legs, and have a group
of sensory stalks on the front and rear of their bodies. The longer, front stalks were for taste while the rear stalks were for smell. They
had two air sacs located inside their bodies to give them natural bouyancy. At the end of their necks was a sophisticated set of eyes,
while their mouths were located under their bodies. They are equally at home in the water and on land, but must breathe air in order to
survive. The neck of the onahk is unusual in that it can be extended or contracted by regulating the bloodflow in its flesh. More blood in
the vessels of the neck extends the neck, while a reduction in blood caused it to contract. (COG)
Onderon
this planet is the primary planet in the Japreal system of three planets. It has a temperate climate, and was home to a primitive race of
humanoids. It has four moons. The primary moon, Dxun, orbitted very close to the planet millenia ago, and the various Dxun beasts
jumped to the planet. The Onderonians struggled against the beasts, eventually gathering new technologies and building a huge walled
city to protect themselves from the beasts. The Onderonians then threw their criminal out into the wilderness without any protection
from the beasts. The outcasts soon learned to defend themselves, and a second civilization grew out of the outcasts. They two groups
remained at war with each other for many years, and the Old Republic asked the Jedi to watch over the world. When Master Arca took
over its watch and assigned Ulic Qel-Droma to the planet, the war was ended when the Onderonian princess Galia married the
Beastprince. Onderon was also the planet on which Freedon Nadd tried to set up his Sith Kingdom. Like many other fringe worlds, the
Onderonians have a distrust of aliens. (FNU, DLS, TOJC)
One, The
a member of a large number of aliens who have existed for eons in the depths of space. They were descended from a race of organic
machines built by an extinct race whose sun went supernova. The machines survived, and continued to grow. While their creators had
no urge to explore space, The One and his race began travelling across the galaxy. Being somewhat conservative, though, they shied
away from any contact with other lifeforms. They were huge, rounded versions of Vuffi Raa, and built other organic ships to transport
their knowledge. However, in the ages since the destruction of their creatores, The One's race has grown stagnant, and they long for
excitement and risks. The One decides to take matters into his own hands, and creates Vuffi Raa as a reconnaissance machine. He
hopes that Vuffi Raa will make contact with many various lifeforms in the galaxy and report back to Tthe One. He planted Vuffi Raa in a
starship cargo hold, and activated him prematurely, setting of the chain of events that led to the Imperial blockade of the ThonBoka.
The One, The Other, and The Rest rushed to the ThonBoka, only to find that the Oswaft and Lando Calrissian had matters pretty much
under control. The One and his counterparts intervened when the Imperials were about to turn the tide of the battle. (LCS)

an Alliance freighter group which escaped from the Battle of Hoth. It was later intercepted in the Javin Sector. (TIE)
Oneness, The
this false religion was set up by the Hutts and the t’landa Til as a legitimate front for a spice processing facility. The religion centered on
Exaltations, which were simply sonic vibrations created by the t’landa Til. Using throat pouches, the creatures can emit vibrations that
affect the sensory centers of the brain. The pilgrims which flee society to join the religion speak of intense pleasure and a sense of calm
from the Exaltations. The pilgrims eventually find that they can’t live without the sensory experience, and attend daily devotions
regularly. The t’landa Til then use the pilgrims as slaves, telling them that the work they perform serves the Oneness. In reality, the
pilgrims are simply processing raw spice - andris, carsunum, ryll, and glitterstim - for sale by the Hutts. The incredible pureness and
processing capability of the pseudo-religion, which operated on the planet Ylesia, made it more than a match for the facilities on Kessel
or Ryloth. (TPS)
Onith
this is the third combination symbol in the Aurebesh script, and represents the Basic combination "eo". (SWM)
Onoh
this small, yellow-skinned creature was loyal to Jabba the Hutt. The Hutt had placed Onoh in place as the watchman over his escape
ship, hidden in the rock of Glass Mountain on Tatooine. Onoh resembled a cross between a reptilian kangaroo and a catfish, and was
quite excitable. Onoh threw in his lot with Big Gizz and Spiker, shortly after he was attacked by Gorga the Hutt’s henchmen. Onoh did
his job well, although annoyingly, constantly reminding Spiker and Big Gizz that Jabba was going to haunt them if they stole anything,
including the escape ship Spirit of Jabba. Both of the criminals ignored Onoh, taking him along for the ride. Jabba had entrusted Onoh
with the security override codes for the main computer, and Onoh used them when the Spirit of Jabba was attacked by the Nemphas.
However, their control of the ship was brief. They were forced to crash-land the ship outside of Mos Eisley in order to escape Gorga the
Hutt’s minions. Onoh, Spiker and Gizz survived, and made their way back to civilization. (TJT)

this young man tended bar in Jugsmuk Station during Coldtime and Slushtime, shortly after the Battle of Endor. For the rest of the year,
he was a protocol liaison to the Gamorrean government, assisting visitors to the planet and helping to make tourists aware of
Gamorrean laws and customs. He considered himself something of a poet, and admitted to writing love poems for Guth. However, he
never actually met Guth, since the requests came in with "a friend." (SWJ14)

Oo Wen
this Ho'Din gardener was an indentured servant of Gardulla the Hutt, and worked in her deadly garden below the surface of Tatooine.
Gardulla maintained a vast ecosystem in her underground oasis, and it was Oo Wen's job to ensure the health of the plants. (E1A7)
Oo-Ta Goo-Ta
this modified Corellian YT-1300 freighter was the primary pirate ship of the Rodian Chordak. The ship’s cockpit had been removed from
the right side of the hull and replaced with a center-mounted unit that sat between the mandibles. The engine section was almost
entirely removed and replaced with three powerful sublight engines and a first-class hyperdrive. Two modified laser cannons were
mounted to turrets, one dorsally and one ventrally, and they were supported by a single blaster cannon. (GG6)
Oobalah
this illegal substance was consumed by many inhabitants of the planet Corellia. (TPS)
Ood Bnar
an ancient Neti Jedi Master, descended from a creature that lived in the trees of Myrkr. Note that the Tales of the Jedi Companion
claims Ood Bnar was a member of the Ryyk species, and that he was orphaned on Myrkr. He was 1,000 years old when his prophecies
and knowledge enabled him to be named the gatekeeper of the Jedi Holocron posessed by Master Arca just before the Great Sith War.
Arca loaned it to Thon just before Thon apprenticed Nomi Sunrider, and Thon used it often in Nomi's training. Ood Bnar appears as a
sluglike humanoid, whose round head has no eyes but is covered with long appendages which hang to his waist. Ood Bnar was
thought to have been long dead, until Luke Skywalker and Kam Solusar discovered the ancient, tree-like creature on Ossus. There,
Bnar was helping the Ysanna tribe discover their Force sensitivity. In a ritual, all young Ysanna warrior-priests were tied to Ood Bnar's
form, humbling them in the face of the Light Side of the Force. Bnar was later forced to confront the Executor Sedriss, and in a duel of
Dark and Light Side energies, Bnar and Sedriss exploded. Sedriss was not heard from again, but a smaller form of Ood Bnar was found
growing in the Jedi Master's former location. The explosion of the two enemies opened a chasm in the earth surrounding the Jedi
Master's location, and the Ysanna discovered a wealth of ancient but operable lightsabers. This was a sign to Luke and Kam that the
Jedi Knights were about to be reborn. (TOJ, DE2, TOJC)
Oodoc
this large, strong alien race has limited intelligence. They have spiked, armor-like skin. (TNR)
Oodonnaa
this ancient Twi’leki female inhabited the spaceport moon of Nar Shaddaa. When Han Solo first arrived on the planet, after being
discharged from Imperial service, Oodonnaa gave him directions on how to get to the Corellian sector. She also propositioned Han,
which embarrassed him to no end. (THG)
Ooglata
this creature’s eggs are considered a food source, and are often served scrambled. Ooglata are native to the planet Ithor. (SWJ9)
Ooglith Cloaker
a variation of the ooglith masquer, the cloaker was also bio-engineered by the Yuuzhan Vong. Instead tranforming the wearer's
appearance, the cloaker simply covered the wearer in a transparent sheath. The cloaker then protected the wearer from all forms of
environmental assaults, including weather, temperature extremes, and pressure. (VP)
Ooglith Masquer
this unusual creature was bioengineered by the Yuuzhan Vong. Resembling a blob of protoplasm, the ooglith masquer could be draped
over the head and torso of a Yuuzhan Vong and become a living mask. The masquer would extend thousands of tiny grappling tendrils
into the pores of the Yuuzhan Ving skin, latching the masquer's body directly to that of its "host." Externally, the masquer created the
appearance of another species, allowing the Yuuzhan Vong to walk among another species without being detected as wearing a
prosthetic device. The ooglith masquer had to be trained to remain in a certain form while attached to the Yuuzhan Vong's face. At the
push of a sensitive point on the ooglith masquer's body, the creature retracted its tendrils and peeled away from the Yuuzhan Vong's
face, once again becoming a shapeless entity and returning to its contained. (VP)

Oola
a Twi'lek female dancer in Jabba the Hutt's palace. It was rumored that she was a member of the Tarkona clan, and was the sister of
Nolaa Tarkona. She was brought to the palace by Bib Fortuna, in an effort to please Jabba. When she landed on Tatooine, she and her
companions were intercepted Luke Skywalker, who offered to help them escape their coming slavery. Her companion, Sienn, chose to
flee with Luke. Oola couldn't bring herself to scape, and was brought to Jabba. Fortuna fitted her with a leather headdress that
contained large metal studs. These studs protruded on the inside of the leather helmet, clogging her ears and causing her undue pain.
She was killed by Jabba's rancor after only two days of work, when she refused to submit to Jabba's demands. Jabba opened the
trapdoor near his Hutt floater and let her drop into the Rancor's pit. Oola was portrayed by Femi Taylor in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.

troops quickly subjugated the populace of Theed, and eventually captured Queen Amidala and her advisors. (TPM)
Oonaar, Zlece
this Imperial Navy Captain was one of the two masterminds behind the virtual destruction of the Eyttyrmin Batiiv pirates. He
commanded the Crusader in that battle. The Khuiumin Survivors vowed to kill him one day, and got their chance when Oonaar booked
passage aboard the Galaxy Chance. The Survivors intercepted the casino ship and captured Oonaar, and returned to Courkrus where
they executed him for his crimes against the pirates. (IJ)

Ooroo
this ancient Jedi master taught the venerable Odan-Urr. An ocean creature native of a world with a dense, cyanogen-rich atmosphere,
Ooroo was a brain-like creature encased in a yellow crystal which maintained the cyanogen atmosphere in which he survived. Ooroo
went to Cinnagar to visit with Empress Teta and Odan-Urr shortly after his student was ridiculed on Coruscant for believing in an
imminent Sith attack. Ooroo, however, believed that his student was correct in the interpretation of his vision, as were several other Jedi
Masters. Ooroo and Odan-Urr led the defense of Kirrek when Naga Sadow finally launched his attack, but they were unable to turn the
tide of battle with the Force. Ooroo, seeing that he alone held the key to the battle, told the Jedi to seek shelter and then cracked open
his crystal shell. The cyanogen atmosphere was deadly to the Sith forces, which were killed almost immediately. However, Ooroo was
unable to survive in an oxygen atmosphere, and expired in Odan-Urr’s arms. Like all Jedi Masters, Ooroo’s physical form dissipated as
his lifeforce became etheral. (FOSE)
Oort Cloud

Ooryl Qrygg
this Gand was a member of the X-Wing group Rogue Squadron. He was Corran Horn's wingman for much of his time with the Rogues,
and was a distinguished member of their group. He survived several battles in which he was nearly shot down, and his breathing
apparatus helped him avoid the Krytos plague. His ability to defeat his enemies drew the interest of Vviir Wiamdi and the ruetsavii
shortly before the Battle of Thyferra. Vviir and two others flew with the Rogues to witness Ooryl's abilities and to criticize them, if
possible. When they all survived the battle which ended the Bacta War, Vviir and his companions deemed Ooryl janwuine, and invited
all of Rogue Squadron to Gand as hinwuine. Ooryl was soon after initiated into the ranks of Gand Findsman, although he maintained
his standing with the Rogues throughout the battles with Grand Admiral Thrawn and Leonira Tavira. (XWN, BW, IJ)
Oosea
this Ithorian left his homeworld of Ithor and tried to make a deal with Imperial Governor Parnell. Oosea wanted money, and thought that
Parnell would pay handsomely for the rights to place a garrison on Ithor. However, Oosea was followed to the Sil'Lume Asteroid Belt by
Ire Eleazari, who monitored Oosea's negotiations and made every effort to make sure they fell through. Oosea demanded that Parnell
eliminate Ire Eleazari, claiming that the only way the garrison could be constructed was if the "traitorous" Eleazari was destroyed.
Oosea's plans were dashed when the Alliance took control of the Sil'Lume Belt and ousted Parnell from power. (JH)

Oovo IV
this was the fourth moon of the planet Oovo, and was the site of a desolate penal colony used by the Galactic Correctional Authority
during the last decades of the Old Republic. Much of the colony was protected by an energy dome, but the dome was maintained at
minimal power levels. This meant that stray meteorites sometimes penetrated the dome and struck the surface. (RAC)

Opatajji, Neera
this spoiled, willful daughter of the Duke of Opatajji flirted with Mirkovig Hirken to draw his attention away from her more attractive
sisters. Neera was stout and short, and often dressed in fine clothes to try and accentuate her lacking beauty. She felt a deep hatred for
her sisters, and tried to thwart them at every opportunity. However, her actions were noticed by her father, and she soon found herself
promised to Hirken. Her superficial nature was further heightened by the revelation that she had found a husband before her sisters.
After they were married, Neera found herself left out of Hirken's administrative life, and became lonely and unhappy. When Hirken was
assigned to Mytus VII, Neera thought she would die of boredom. When Han Solo infiltrated Mutus VII, Neera and Hirken was in the
main tower of Stars' End when it exploded and shot into space. Hirken abandoned her to the Stars' End tower while pleading with Han
Solo to help him get off the doomed structure, and Neera shot him in the back. Neera did not escape the tower when it crashed back
onto Mytus VII's surface. (HSE, CSA)
Opee Sea Killer
this huge, aquatic beast is found in the oceans of the planet Naboo. It resembles a thick-bodied fish, although it has eight insectile legs
and is generally crustacean in appearance. Its mouth is filled with pointed teeth, and its eyes glow a fierce orange-red in the depths of
the sea. The opee sea killer catches its prey with its long, flexible tongue. An average opee sea killer measures 20 meters in length,
although there were a pair of dwarf opees kept at the Otoh Gunga Zoological Research Facility before the Battle of Naboo. Despite
their size, they were no less dangerous than their full-sized cousins. (SW1, IG1, E1A9)
Operation: Elrood
this Imperial action was designed to take control of Elrood Sector, not just the interdicted space between Derilyn and Berea. Note that
the final section of Operation: Elrood indicates that this was an Alliance action. (OE)
Operation Flotsam
this New Republic operation was funded by the Historical Battle Site Preservation Act, and was set up to recover the debris from space
battles before it could end up on the private market. It collected Imperial and Alliance artifacts for display in the Alliance War Museum
on Coruscant. (BTS)
Operation Groundquake
named by Tyria Sarkin, this Wraith Squadron mission involved knocking out the Imperial bases located in the cities of Fellon and Hullis,
on the planet Halmad, during the hunt for Warlord Zsinj. (IF)
Operation Hammerblow
this New Republic Naval operation was first implemented by the Fifth Battle Group. It involved the use of K-Wing bombers to knock out
a planet's defensive shielding, thus allowing larger ships to knock out weapons emplacements in preparation for landing. It was heavily
opposed in some circles of the New Republic Senate, for it was a heavy-handed use of military power by a government supposedly
opposed to the subjugation of planets. Admiral Ackbar and the supporters of the operation cited many planets under Imperial control
that would require the use of such tactics. (BTS)
Operation Peacemaker
this Imperial directive was used to subjugate planetary systems in which two or more indigenous races were at war with each other.
The basic outline of Operation Peacemaker is to artifically escalate the tension between the races, to the point that all-out war is
inevitable. The Empire can then invade the system with the outward goal of initiating peace between the warring peoples. The ultimate
goal of this plan was the subjugation of all the warring parties under Imperial control. (SWJ9)
Operation Retribution
this Alliance action involved a two-pronged attack. The first part involved a full-scale assault on a minimally-defended Imperial outpost.
This operation was a feint, meant to draw Imperial forces away from repair station M13. A small team of Alliance agents was then
dispatched to Mycroft, and was able to infiltrate station M13 and render it useless to the Empire. (SWCP)
Operation Shadowplay
this Alliance military operation was implemented in order to get supplies and heavy equipment to forces inserted on Imperial-held
worlds. Shadowplay used stealth-equipped combat freighters to deliver the supplies. The freighters would skim the atmosphere of a
planet, appearing on sensors as a large meteor or asteroid. They would drop the supplies or equipment and then fly off, as if the meteor
had disintegrated into several smaller pieces. The "pieces" were often large chunks of ice, in which the Alliance hid the supplies it was
delivering. This way, the supplies themselves - whether food or weapons - avoided sensor detection and could be recovered by the on-
planet team. (ROE)
Operation Shadowstrike
this Alliance mission was sent to the unexplored planet NCW-781 to recover the pilot known as Prodigal-One and the datacadr
codenamed Prodigal-Two. (IA)

It was commanded by the Bakuran Naval officer, Hortel Ossilege. (SC)
Operation Strike Fear
a plan devised by Emperor Palpatine early in the Galactic Civil War, it involved the use of the Imperial fleet to subdue pockets of
resistance and obliterate them. The goal was to suppress further resistance via the fear of Imperial retaliation. (XW)
Operation 45RA
this is the codename of the plan devised by the Farool brothers to capture Crying Dawn Singer and discredit the Alliance in the eyes of
the Shashay. The operation was initiated some time after the Battle of Yavin, and involved not only the capture of Crying Dawn Singer
but a series of transmissions which showed Yearo Seville posing as the leader of the Alliance in Rayter Sector. The Farools hoped that
it would impress Moff Nile Owen, and gain them both promotions. A separate part of the operation involved the Farools also discrediting
Moff Owen, with a transmission which showed Owen’s lack of compassion in the matter. This plan would remove Owen from power and
place the Farools in his place. The operation was thwarted by Alliance agents in Rayter Sector who managed to infiltrate the plan and
recover Crying Dawn Singer before the Farools could gain power. (TA)

Oppo was trained as a Jedi by Yaddle, and was skilled in the art of malacia. Oppo once inherited the leadership of the Monarchy of
Thisspias, but declined the position in order to pursue his studies of the Force. Among the Jedi Council, he was known for his skills in
battle planning and strategy. Oppo Rancisis was portrayed by Jerome Blake in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. (SW1,

Oracle Base
this Alliance military outpost was located in Brak Sector during the Galactic Civil War. (SESB)
Oradin
this was one of the largest cities on the planet Brentaal, and it boasted an Imperial-class spaceport. In the years following the Battle of
Endor, much of Oradin was held by supporters of the New Republic, which allowed the Republis to establish a temporary base there
prior to the Battle of Brentaal. Parts of the city were destroyed during the initial battle against the Imperial forces, and an assault shuttle
was shot down and crashed into a school. Is Oradin a city or a planet? The captions seem to indicate it's a city on the barren moon of
Brentaal IV, but discussion among the New Republic military indicate it's a planet. (XWES, IR)
Oradin Diamond

Oranessan System
Dengar and Neelah took the Hound’s Tooth to this remote system, in an effort to draw the forces of Kodir of Kuhlvult away from the
transport ship of Balancesheet, shortly before the Battle of Endor. Their plan was to divert the Kuati ships’ attention long enough for
Boba Fett and N’dru Suhlak to leave the assembler’s ship in Suhlak’s Z-95 and flee to Tatooine and recover the load shifter which
contained Kuat of Kuat’s falsified record of the deaths of Owen and Beru Lars. (HM)

Warlord Zsinj first put these devices to practical use. The first use was when he faked the destruction of the Iron Fist at Selaggis Six. He
flew the Super-class Star Destroyer into a tunnel created with nightcloaks, hiding the ship from New Republic forces while he jumped to
hyperspace. After fleeing, the nightcloaks were recovered, revealing the debris from the mocked-up Second Death to portray the rubble
of the Iron Fist. Later, Zsinj used them to force the inhabitants of Dathomir to surrender to him, after Rancor Base had been infiltrated
by New Republic forces. The blockade was smashed by the combined forces of the New Republic and the Hapan Cluster. (CPL, IR)

Ord
this prefix, which is used in the names of many modern planets, is actually an acronym used by the Old Republic to denote a world
which housed a military outpost. These worlds were designated as Ordnance/Regional Depots, or ORDs. Over the centuries, the word
Ord was simply used to describe the planet. (EGP)
Ord Ambassador
this was Ord Mantell’s most luxurious hotel. (ROM)
Ord Antalaha
this planet was colonized during the Clone Wars as an Ordnance/Regional Depot along the Shwuy Exchange. The bases were
abandoned after the Clone Wars, and the colonists eventually moved elsewhere. About ten years before Emperor Palpatine initiated
the New Order, Ord Antalaha started being used as a stopover by smugglers and pirates. The planet's warehouses and buildings were
soon converted for use by the outlaws, and Ord Antalaha became a haven for independent spacers. The planet had three continents,
all of which were covered with temperate forests and plains. (PP)
Ord Biniir
this planet was the site of a series of Galactic Civil War battles. The first was a victory by a squadron of Y-Wings against the uninspired
rd st
Imperial forces of the 233 Imperial Fighter Wing, while the second was a decisive victory by the 181 Imperial Fighter Group against
the same Y-Wings. The second battle was a hollow victory for the Empire, since it took place on the same day as the Battle of Yavin.
(EGV, MBF)

Ord Mantell
planet on which Han Solo was almost captured by bounty hunters, including Boba Fett, prior to the Battle of Hoth. Ord Mantell was
known for its lenient banking laws and their flexibility. It was settled some 12,000 before the Battle of Endor by Corellian colonists as an
advanced military outpost for the Old Republic. Over time, more wealthy planets and better hyperspace routes diminished Ord mantell's
strategic importance, but became something of a free port for all manner of freighters and cargo ships. Despite the planet's dropping
stature, it remained known as the Heart of the Bright Jewel, orbiting the blue star at the center of the Bright Jewel System. The planet is
famous for its thick, outer cometary cloud, which has been the site of the Blockade Runners Derby for nearly 100 years. It is also one of
Thrawn's feint attacks just prior to his attack on Coruscant. It has two moons, and has a temperate environment. It claimed to be free of
Imperial interest, but Han Solo discovered an Imperial fleet on maneuvers when he arrived there. It was at a starship scrapyard on Ord
Mantell that Dash Rendar, working to locate information on Han Solo's whereabouts for Lando Calrissian after the debacle at Cloud
City, ran into IG-88 and other bounty hunters. The bounty hunters were trying to intercept Boba Fett, who was transporting Han Solo’s
frozen body to Jabba the Hutt. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Ord Mantell was approached by the New Republic to
help alleviate the overwhelming rush of refugees fleeing the battlezones. (ESB, TLC, MTS, SSE, ROM, TTSB, SL, HT)
Ord Mirit
a planet in the Mirit System, located in the same sector as the Pyria and Venjagga Systems. It was the site of an Imperial base, but the

was moved to Corellia to guard the shipyards there. (XWN)
Ord Pardron
the primary planet in the Ord Pardron system, it is a defensive center for the New Republic. The planet is nothing more than a barren
rock, with a thin atmosphere and very little gravity. However, it is rich in minerals and ores, and was extensively mined by the Old
Republic and the Empire. It served as the primary defensive site for the Abrion and Dufilvian sectors (including Ando, Filve, and
Crondre). The New Republic base there was attacked by the Death's Head by Grand Admiral Thrawn prior to the Battle of Bilbringi.

Ordomire, Lucky
this forger was well-known to the underworld elements of Lumchugger’s Hub, on Bescane. He maintained the BanthaQuik! Restaurant
as a front, and anyone requiring his services needed to order specific items from the restaurant’s menu. The contact would then be
arranged. Ordomire helped a group of Alliance agents gain access to the Wastes, during their search for the Death-Hunter project.
Ordomire was often accompanied by his Rodian bodyguard. (SWJ9)
Ore Sucker
a small pirate ship developed to steal the cargo from the huge Colossus Wasp transport ships. These ships roam the Stenness System,
looking for Wasp transports. When they find one, the ore suckers latch onto the Wasp's exterior, and bore into the hull with a drill or
laser. Once the hull has been breached, the ore suckers open their own cargo bay hatches and lock them over the breach. The pilots
then blow the other cargo bay doors on the ore suckers, creating a vacuum in their own holds. This vacuum sucks the cargo out of the
Wasp's holds and into the ore sucker's holds. The pirates who used them had to be quick, so that the stolen cargo didn't simply fly out
through their second open portal. (TOJ)

Orfite
a race of creatures native to the planet Kidron, the Orfites are friendly enough to those offworlders who obey their laws. This is an
unusual request, considering that many of the offworlders on Kidron are criminals and convicts escaping justice. The avergae Orfite has
a stocky build, and their faces are dominated by their large noses, which are filled with frilled olfactory lobes. Their society revolved
around the sense of smell, with each Orfite exuding pheronomes which convey a variety of information. They lived in tribes known as
sahhs, but every member of Orfite society was free to move about, and could join another sahh if they didn't agree with the leadership
of their current tribe. The Empire considered the Orfites to be uncivilized savages, and left them alone. (PG3, AE)

another name for the Mon Calamari oxygen symbiote. (JASB)
Organoform Circuitry
this technology had been theorized and rumored for hundreds of years before it was discovered to be in use on the planet Zonama
Sekot, shortly after the Battle of Naboo. It was said that the technology was developed in the Outer Rim, on planets which were
technologically advanced and whic remained separate from both the Old Republic and the Trade Federation. Organoform circuitry
involved the use of crystalline structures formed from organic materials. In some respects, organoform circuitry was alive, since it was
created from organic matter. However, it lacked sentience, reacting only to the stimuli it encountered. (RP)
Organoplastics
any organic material whose physical propoerties allow it to be shaped and molded into a rigid form. Latoprene is an organoplastic.
(LCS)
Orgege, Yref

was completed. (RD)
Orgon
an alien race of intelligent, mobile plants native to the planet Gorsh, the Orgons were sought after by the Genetech Corporation.
Genetech wanted to study them for commercial uses, but a usable specimen has yet to be captured. Their central bodies were shaped
and formed like shells, and contained the Orgon's brain and vital organs. Trailing from the central shell were six to eight thick tendrils

creatures who lived squallid lives among the refuse. (BF)
Orko
known as Orko the Foultrader, this Hutt was a member of the H'uun class. Orko was a rival of Gorga the Hutt, until Gorga desired
Orko's daughter's hand in marriage. Gorga had Boba Fett kill Bar-Kooda, a pirate who had been harassing Orko's shipments. Gorga
then served up Bar-Kooda as the main course at a dinner for Orko at his palace on Orkana. Orko was pleased, although no less
impressed, with the offering, and allowed Gorga to marry Anachro. The feud between Orko and Gorga continued, at a reduced pace,
until Bar-Kooda’s brother, Ry-Kooda, heard about his brother’s death. The Koodan set out to kill off everyone involved, and nearly
succeeded on Skeebo. Boba Fett intervened, taking out the Koodan before he could do any damage. Unfortunately for Orko, Ry-Kooda

(GG12, ML)
Orn, Kalebb
this man worked his entire life on Mechis III, as an assembly line monitor. He was of the opinion that his presence wasn’t needed on the
planet, since all the systems were heavily automated and self-designing. His superiors, however, required periodic human intervention
and inspection of all processes on the line, so Orn was hired for that purpose seventeen years before the Battle of Hoth. Orn was on
duty when IG-88 arrived at Mechis III and began reprogramming the security networks. Part of the new programming included the
elimination of any organic life on the planet, and four worker droids pulled Orn apart before he could escape. (TBH)
Oro
his pink-skinned Mon Calamari was one of Mon Mothma's closest advisors until Luke Skywalker discovered Oro was a spy, working for
Imperial Governor Parnell. It was later discovered that Oro had leaked word of the Alliance's interest in Erling Tredway to Parnell, who
quickly moved to imprison Erling on Tol Ado. After Erling's rescue, Oro was arrested and placed in prison by the Alliance. (JH)

son of Modon Kira, and prince of the Beastmasters, Oron was secretly entering the city of Iziz as a kind of spy for many years before
Ulic Qel-Droma came to the planet. He once met the Onderonian princess Galia on one of his missions, and they fell in love. Together
they arranged a false kidnapping attempt on Galia's life in order to be together. Their plan almost worked flawlessly, except that Ulic -
along with his brother Cay and Tott Doneeta - followed them back to the Beastmaster city. There they learned of Oron's love for Galia,
and also of the Dark Side influences working on Onderon. Oron and Galia were later married, following Queen Amanoa's death, and
the peoples of Onderon were united. (TOJ)
Orooturoo
this planet was the homeworld of Princess Nampi. (JTH)
Ororo Transportation
this organization was a front company for the Tenloss Syndicate during the Galactic Civil War. Ororo tried to horn in on Black Sun's
spice trade shortly after the Battle of Hoth. Xizor sent Guri to deliver a message to the operation, during which she exterminated three
of Ororo's highest-placed officials. To further emphasize his displeasure, Xizor gave Darth Vader the coordinates of an Ororo shipyard
in the Vergesso Asteroid Field, telling the Dark Lord that the coordinates represented an Alliance shipyard. The shipyard was destroyed
by Vader's fleet. In the wake of the Battle of Endor and the downfall of Black Sun, Ororo was expanded by the Tenloss Syndicate and
used to provide transportation services for the Syndicate's many operations. Ororo's headquarters were located on Eredin. (SE, GG11)
Orotay
a barely-palateble beverage, orotay found acceptance among the armed forces because it helped them stay alert. Ronks were found to
be allergic to it. Following the Battle of Endor, orotay production fell off, and the price began to rise. (XWRS)
Orowood Tower
this large building was built on Coruscant to house survivors of the destruction of Alderaan. It was painstakingly built and crafted to
resemble as much of Alderaanian architecture as possible. However, many of the survivors decided that living on Coruscant, close to
the Imperial Palace and the memories of Emperor Palpatine, was too emotionally difficult. After the reign of terror of Grand Admiral
Thrawn, all the remaining Alderaanians abandoned the Tower, and it became a business center. The Tower itself was 38-levels tall; the
third level of the Tower held airspeeder parking pads, and the fourth level held five tapcafes. (SOP)
Orr, Alijah
this Imperial Customs Officer was one of the most powerful men in the Shesharile System during the height of the New Order. Only the
local governor had more power. Orr was in charge of all in-system customs, and had the ability to confiscate and search any ships
passing through Shesharile. In order to keep Orr happy, the local businessmen and trade cartels constantly invited him to parties and
galas, and showered him with gifts. All of this was amusing to Orr, who was a rigid Imperial officer who believed in the exact letter of the
law. This trait kept him from advancing beyond the rank of Captain, for his superiors were looking for men they could bend to their wills.
His only known vice was an occasion smoke of tabacc, enjoyed through a carved bantha-bone pipe. Orr sought to advance in his
position by wiping out all smuggling in the system, and was focused on capturing Shamus Falconi. This is something that Orr
uncharacteristically was unable to do. (SWJ9)
Orr-Om
this was one of the twenty orbital cities established by the Duros, after they abandoned their homeworld' surface. It was one of the few
which were unshielded, and so it was virtually undefended during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Thus, when the alien
invaders attacked Duro, Orr-Om was one of the first to be disabled and destroyed. (BP)
Orramas
this luxury space liner made a regular run between Coruscant and several Rim planets, with a stop at Star Station 9, during the years
leading up to the Battle of Yavin. Abal Karda fled Star Station 9 aboard this ship, disguised as a Duhman, before landing on Maryx
Minor. The Captain of the ship told Boba Fett that Karda had demanded to be let off at Maryx Minor, even though the planet wasn't on
the ship's regular run. However, a meteor shower knocked out the Orramas' gyro system, and forced the Captain to land for repairs.
The nearest world just happened to be Maryx Minor. (EOE)

Ors, Jan
an Alliance operative used heavily during the early years of the Galactic Civil War, Jan Ors was eventually captured by the Empire
when her cover was blown. Imprisoned without hope, she found an ear to bend when she met Kyle Katarn. Realizing Kyle's
ambivalence toward the Empire, she cultivated a relationship with him until he agreed to help her escape from the prison. When they
finally escaped, Jan Ors met with Mon Mothma and persuaded the Alliance leader to hire Kyle Katarn as a mercenary and commando.
Shortly thereafter, Jan was captured by Jabba the Hutt and held as a bargaining chip against the Alliance, until she was again rescued
by Kyle Katarn. She became one of the few people Kyle trusted, and was also one of the few people he could count on to help him get
out of sticky situations. (DF, DF2)
Orsk
this man served the Imperial Navy as Captain of the Star Destroyer Dauntless. He was in command of the ship when he was
dispatched to escort Lira Wessex to Cloud City, to meet with Doctor Vreen about taking control of the X0-X1 prototype. (CCC)
Ort Hoogra-D'En
this Ho'Din was born on the planet Moltok, but spent much of his childhood on Anemcoro. His work on the planet included the
cultivation and propogation of several rare species of plants. When the Empire "accidentally" fired on Anemcoro while trying to halt the
civil war raging between two neighboring planets, his work was destroyed in the fires that swept the planet, and he vowed to make them
pay for their actions. Along with Tergeth Dilorr and Babel Senjorg, Hoogra-D'En began bombing Imperial locations in the Outer Rim with
spore bombs of his own design. The Empire put out a bounty on Hoogra-D'En, who was later captured on Pallaxides when he tried to
hide out in his base. (ND)
Orthavan

Orthellin
a race native to the Binarran Cloud. (DFRSB)
Orto
primary planet in the Orto system, it is a cold world orbitting a red dwarf star. It is the homeworld of the Ortolan race. Water is plentiful
on Orto, but most of it is locked in polar icecaps. The only arable land is located along the planet's equator. When scientists found a
huge crated buried under the northern polar ice cap, they built a theory that the planet had been hit eons ago by a large body. This
impact caused the planet to undergo numerous ecological and physical changes: dust from the collision clogging the atmosphere, the
impact knocking the planet out of its original orbit, and the force of the impact creating a new axial tilt. Thus, Orto is the inhospitable
planet it is today, although its thin atmosphere is rich in oxygen. The average day on Orto lasts about 24 standard hours, and is years
lasts 589 local days. (GG4)
Ortola, Tresk
a student of the Imperial Academy, Tresk and a group of friends jumped ship to join the Alliance. He became known for his blod actions
in the midst of battle, and his success rate earned him a swift promotion to Captain. He commanded the NovaFlare prior to the Battle of
Endor. Following the fall of the Empire, Ortola continued to serve the New Republic as a Captain, assisting Wedge Antilles in the
attempt to take over the Maw Installation. (COTF, JASB)
Ortolan
this is a race of blue-furred, elephantine bipeds native to the planet Orto. They have floppy ears and pudgy fingers, and are known for
their insatiable appetites. They are descended from a nocturnal race of creatures, and retain many of their original characteristics. Their
eyesight is excellent in dim light, but bright lights hurt them. Their ears are sensitive to sound waves, and their noses are filled with
tympanic organs that increase their sense of hearing. The normal mode of conversation among the Ortolans is conducted at subsonic
levels, with sounds being emitted through their noses. Their noses also contain sensitive olfactory organs. A small mouth is located
beneath their nose. In the distant past, after Orto was struck by a large mass, the Ortolan race was much smaller. They managed to
survive the devastation because they ate very little, while the larger predators starved to death. Over time, their brains continued to
develop, and they developed a basic technology and a high level of industrialization. Note that X-Wing: Solo Command includes a
reference to a pink-skinned Ortolan. (ROTJ, GG4, SOC)
Ortugg
this Gamorrean was the Captain of Jabba the Hutt's personal guard at his palace in the desert of Tatooine. In addition to his duty of
guarding the main entrance to the palace, Jabba had assigned Ortugg to key an eye on Tessek. When Luke Skywalker first entered
Jabba’s palace, Ortugg tried to stop him. Luke used the Force to choke the Gamorrean, holding him at bay until he reached Jabba’s
audience chamber. (TJP, CCG7)

Orvak
an Imperial Navy Commander assigned to the Shadow Academy, Orvak and Dareb flew in the initial attack on the Jedi Academy on
Yavin 4. Their mission was to knock out the Jedis’ shield generator, and flew in specially-equipped stealth TIE Fighters. Dareb’s ship
struck the shields and crashed, but Orvak eluded the shields and slipped under the defenses. He planted several proton grenades and
managed to destroy the shield generator, allowing the Shadow Academy free access to the Jedi compund. However, during the setting
of the grenades, he was bitten by a crystal snake and fell unconscious. He came to just before the grenades went off, and he was killed
in the resulting explosions. (JUS)
Orveth
this gas is one of the most common gases used for blasters. (CFG, GG2)
Orycat
a vicious, predatory feline native to the planet Orryxia. They hunted in packs. (TBSB)
Oryn Engineering
this weapons manufacturer was known for producing the first RAGOC missile system. (HAS)
OS-301
OS is short for Orbital Spaceyard, and OS-301 was located near Commenor. Shortly after the New Republic established a base on
Folor, Apwar Trigit leased OS-301 for repairs to the Implacable. (WS)
OS-72-10
this was the serial number of the Imperial pilot who flew Obsidian 10. He was a combat veteran who served aboard the Conquest,
Thunderflare, and Executor. He had passed up several promotions and increases in rank, in order to maintain his status as an active
pilot. (CCG9)
Osa-Prime
this is the capital city of the planet Osarian. Nom Anor launched a missile strike against the city, when Rhommamool and Osarian were
at their orbital closest, in an effort to engage them in a civil war that would draw the attention of the New Republic away from the
Yuuzhan Vong base on Helska and the start of their invasion. Much of the city was destroyed before Commander Ackdool and the
Mediator could react to the launch, much to the consternation of the Osarians. (VP)
Osarian
1) this planet orbitted its star in an ellipse that brought it very close to Rhommamool every ten years. Like Rhommamool, Osarian was
not a technologically-advanced world when it petitioned the New Republic to mediate a centuries-old feud which had been refueled by
Nom Anor. The feud sprang from the fact that Osarian was a pleasant, temperate world, while Rhommamool was a desolate place
originally colonized by criminals sentenced to work in the mines. The Osarians who settled on the planet were more or less the wardens
and caretakers of the mining colonists of Rhommamool, a kind of master-slave relationship that wore relations between the two planets
quite thin. Neither planet had developed the ability to travel through space, and the Osarians employed a mercenary band of Rodians to
protect themselves from Rhommamool. Just before Nom anor fled the system in order to join the Yuuzhan Vong attack force, he
launched a series of missiles at Osa-Prime, leaving the city in ruins and sparking a full-scale war between the two planet. (VP)
2) this is the name of the native race of the planet Osarian. (VP)
Osarian First-Force
this was the name used by Grappa's mercenary force, during their period of employment as protectors of the planet Osarian. (VP)
Oseon
primary star in the Oseon system. (LCM)
Oseon System
a system of seven bands of asteroids orbiting the star Oseon. They are primarily vacation sites and pleasure spots for the filthy rich of
the galaxy. It is also the home to a huge population of mynocks, and any ships travelling through the system are well-advised to protect
their ships from the parasites. The system's primary star flares up in a spectacular display, known as the Flamewind, once a year. A
major influx of tourists is seen during the Flamewind. The asteroids within the system are numbered with four-digit names. The first
number represents which band the asteroid is in; the other three are just counters. (LCM, LCF)
Oseon 2795
a small asteroid in the Oseon system, it is one of the closer asteroids to the star Oseon. It is therefore very hot, and must be carefully
maintained in terms of its life support systems and its air coolers. Its primary commerce is centered around a mining operation, rather
than the usual pleasure specialties of other planetoids in the system. Lando Calrissian stopped there shortly after winning the
Millennium Falcon in a sabacc match, due mainly to his poor navigational skills. He had been trying to reach the Dela system. (LCM)
Oseon 5792
the personal asteroid owned by Bohhuah Mutdah, 5792 has been specially modified to Mutdah's needs. The disk-shaped asteroid - 15
kilometers at its widest, 3 kilometers are its smallest - has been topped with a domed version of paradise. Multiple transparent covers
house living spaces and vast gardens. The underside of the asteroid was built up to form a vast spaceport which is heavily armed and
guarded. The gravity on the asteroid has to be specially modified to allow Mutdah to move his vast bulk with little effort. The asteroid is
destroyed just after Rokur Gepta kills Butdah and takes his place, in an effort to kill Lando Calrissian. Lando escapes, but is beseiged
by Shanga's fighters. One of the fighters takes a hit and crashes into one of the top-side domes, breeching it and setting off a
destructive chain reaction in the asteroid's systems. (LCF)
Oseon 6845
the largest asteroid in the Oseon system, it is one of the most luxurious of all the Oseon asteroids. It is home to the famous Esplanade.
When Lando Calrissian leaves the Rafa System with what was the last cargo of life crystals ever exported, he returned to the Oseon
System - and Oseon 6845 in particular - to try and win some big money. He had found that the vast wealth he obtained from the life
crystals quickly got sucked away in maintaining the Millennium Falcon. Oseon 6845 has been artificially accelerated to reduce its daily
cycle to 25 hours, closer to the galactic standard. (LCF)
Oseoni
any native of the Oseon system. (LCF)
OSETS 2711
OSETS stands for Orbtal Solar Energy Transfer Satellite, which is one of the many solar heat collectors used to focus sunlight onto the
surface of Coruscant. These collectors provide heat to the moderately cold world, and also serve to melt the polar icecaps for water.
OSETS 2711 was commandeered by Rogue Sqaudron and Winter, as part of their last-minute plans to knock out the planet's shields in
preparation for a New Republic assault. They caused OSETS 2711 to heat a water resevoir to boiling, creating a huge series of
thunderstorms that knocked out the planet's computer systems, bringing the shields down. OSETS 2711 was under the command of
Virar Needa at the time. (WG)

as a junieuw. (AE)
Osi Hass
this Krikthasi was the leader of the Undrarian junieuw during the height of the Galactic Civil War. He allied himself with the Alliance, in
the hope of obtaining high-tech weaponry with which to defeat the Multopos. (PG1)
Osirrag
the primary planet in the Osirrag System, this forested world could have a flourishing tourist trade if it wasn't located so far from the
trade routes that wander through the Elrood Sector. The seasons are calm, and only add to the beauty of the terrain. It is said that a
race of sentient creatures lives in the air currents of the planet. Rumors tell of a young boy who sought them out, and learned to
communicate with them in their own language of whistles. They developed a lasting relationship, with the boy growing up to become
their protector. In return, the creatures extended his lifespan. (PG)
Osk
this is the fifteenth Aurebesh symbol, which stood for the Basic letter "o". (IR, SWM)
Osk'y
this Old Corellian term literallt translated as "enemy" or "rival." In the sport of phrenbi, a variation had two teams paired together as
rivals, and each team was referred to as an osk'y. (BSS)
Oslet
this timid, herbivorous creature lived in the jungles of Joralla. The average specimen stood nearly three meters tall, and three sections
to its body. Each section had a pair of limbs, and the limbs were highly dextrous. These creatures could move equally well on land in
the trees. The Tikiarri which were native to Joralla used these creatures as mounts. Their necks were extremely flexible, giving the oslet
the ability to turn its head a full 360 degrees. (PG1)
Oslumpex V
a planet, home to the firm of Aerospace Engineers, Incorporated. (HSR)
Osma Bag
this small, leather pouch was made by the shamen of the Ibhaan'I tribe on Socorro. It was filled with a pinch of blessed Socorran sand

Osprey
an Imperial Nebulon-B2 frigate operative during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE)
Oss Willum
a thin humanoid Vultan apprenticed to Jedi Master Thon, just before the Great Sith War. He made a living as a simple trader, until the
day he rescued an Old Republic courier ship by hailing a Republic prowler. He suddenly realized that a single being could greatly alter
the events of the galaxy, and also realized that he had been squandering his own life. He spent a year in seclusion before he realized
that he could feel the Force, and so he decided to listen to the Force and become a Jedi. He had been training with Master Thon for five
years prior to two interrelated events: the arrival of Tott Doneeta to Ambria, and Thon's apprenticeship of Nomi Sunrider. Oss was
assigned to Tott's team that included Ulic Qel-Droma and his brother Cay, which went to Onderon. Oss Willum, along with Crado and a
group of about twenty yong Jedi, were seduced by Exar Kun into joining him on Yavin 4. There, Kun destroyed the Sith holocron he
stole from Odan-Urr, releasing the Sith magic in the shards that exploded from it. The shards caught the young Jedi, including Oss
Willum, and they were temporarily possessed by ancient Sith spirits. Oss Willum and Crado were charged with the destruction of
Master Thon, on Ambria, and plotted to use the Dark Side beasts of Lake Natth to do the dirty work for them. Thon, with the help of
Nomi Sunrider and Sylvar, defeated the beasts and attempted to take the two renegades captive. Crado was able to escape, but Oss
Willum was taken. He eventually was brought out of the Sith spell. (TOJ, TSW, TOJC)
OSS Telira
one of Osman Shrier's cruise ships, the OSS Telira is a modified Corellian CR90 Corvette that runs between Elshandruu Pica and
Quence Sector. (GG9)
Ossan
a dim-witted race which inhabits the planet Ossel II, the Ossan are a humanoid race whose primary weapons are clubs and spears.
They are the favorite food of the predatory cucul. The average Ossan stands just under two meters tall, and has a rodent-like face with
a conical snout that ends in a single nostril. They are a heavy-set people, with huge torsoes supported by short, stocky legs. Their arms
are gangly compared to the rest of their body. The Ossan also harvest the syp wood, and trade it to off-worlders for passage. House
Vandron used enslaved Ossan to run their Karfeddion slave-breeding farms. (GG4, COJ)
Ossel II
a planet with a strong gravitational force, Ossel II is covered with steaming bogs. It is the homeworld of the Ossan race, and is known
for its syp trees, which produce beautiful wood. The atmosphere of Ossell II is brownish-green in color, due to high concentrations of
sulfur and chlorine. (GG4, COJ)
Ossilege, Hortel
the Bakuran Admiral, in charge of the Bakuran Navy, about the time of the Corellian uprisings. He is a small, slightly-built man with a
bald, pink head highlighted by huge, bushy eyebrows and a sharp goatee beard. He has a quick intellect, and a suspicious nature. He
was mortally wounded aboard the Intruder when the ship was rammed by three Saccorian droneships. He sustained a grievous wound
to the stomach, but stayed in command long enough for Admiral Ackbar to arrive. Then, he detonated the Intruder in the midst of the
Saccorian fleet. (AS, SC)
Osskum Ale
an alcoholic beverage. (ROM)
Osss-10
hailed as the “new breed” of bounty hunter after the dissolution of the True Guild and the Guild Reform Committee, this individual was
equipped with state-of-the-art hardware. Many believed that Osss-10 had corporate or other forms of sponsorship, in order to afford the
equipment he used. However, Osss-10 was outsmarted by Boba Fett, who was piloting N’dru Suhlak’s Z-95 Headhunter, during Fett’s
search for the load shifter droid owned by Kuat of Kuat. (HM)
Ossus
third planet in the Adega system, Ossus was home to the site of an ancient Jedi stronghold and training center thousands of years
before the Freedon Nadd Uprisings and the Great Sith War. Following the Freedon Nadd Uprisings on Onderon, Jedi Master Arca
planned to send the ancient Sith artifacts recovered from Freedon Nadd's ship there for examination, but Exar Kun was able to retrieve
them first. In the chaos surrounding the Great Sith War, Aleema and Crado destroyed the Cron System, loctaed near the Adega
System. Ossus was caught in the wave of destruction radiating from the supernova. The Jedi attempted to transport the artifacts and
lore from the libraries there, but were only able to take a fraction of the wealth stored there over the millennia. In an attempt to preserve
a cache of lightsabers, Master Ood Bnar initiated his lifecycle change, becoming a gnarled old tree with the lightsabers engtangled in
his roots. He was nearly destroyed by the radiation from the Cron System. Over the ages, great cities grew out of the planet's rough,
irradiated terrain. In modern times, the planet was nearly wiped out during the Clone Wars. The enemies of the Jedi Knights struck
there, attempting to destroy the stronghold and root out the Jedi. Although the planet was devastated, the Jedi survived. Later, following
the death of Emperor Palpatine's first clone on Byss, Luke Skywalker and Kam Solusar discover the planet's ancient Jedi connection,
and are directed there by Master Vodo's holocron just before Sedriss executed Operation Shadow Hand. There find the Ysanna tribe
and the ancient Jedi Master Ood Bnar. The planet's atmosphere is laced with electrical storms, probably resulting from the
near-devastation it suffered during the Clone Wars. It orbits the Adegan stars in a figure-eight orbit. (FNU, DLS, TSW, DE1, DE2)
Osprey
an Imperial Nebulon-B2 modified frigate which assisted the Harpax in capturing Admiral Harkov's fleet. (TIE)
Ostrine
found on the planet Hargeeva, this mineral had many unique properties. The chief property was that ostrine could absorb heat like a
sponge. This made it a valuable mineral for the production of armor plating for stormtroopers and soldiers. Ketrian Altronel discovered a
method of crystalline manipulation and plas-bonding of certain trace elements that modified raw ostrine into a heat-absorbing material
unlike anything else in the galaxy. Its natural absorption properties were multiplied ten-fold. Major Nial Pedrin took the formula for use
by the Empire, and hoped to bring Ketrian to Coruscant for more research. However, she defected while en route to an Imperial facility,
and used the formula to improve the firepower of X-Wings by adding ostrine to the housings of their laser cannons. (SWJ8)
Ossus Day
an Alliance Mon Calamari Cruiser operative during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE)
Ostrad Peninsula
this point of swampland was located between Otoh Gunga and the Gungan Sacred Place, on the planet Naboo. (E1A11)
Osuno Whett
an alien Lando Calrissian meets on Oseon 2795, Osuno is a tall, gray-skinned humanoid with a high-pitched voice and an inability to
make a decision. He did, however, have very definite goals of conquest and power, and his image of himself was bolstered when he
underwent surgery to have bonemer implanted in his legs, arms, shoulders, and spine to increase his size. A native of the Lekua
System, Whett was a renowned scholar there, earning the title of Offdeta there before becoming an Associate Professor of
Comparative Sapient Studies. He was assisted by the droid Vuffi Raa, who was sent to Whett by Rokur Gepta. Together they
discovered the Renatasian System and its primitive human inhabitants. Whett saw the Renatasians as simple, ignorant people, and he
planned to use them to further his own ambitions. He worked for 700 days with Vuffi Raa, who the Renatasians regarded as a deity,
keeping a low profile as Vuffi Raa's assistant while arranging an invasion of the system by an Imperial fleet. The Renatasians blamed
Vuffi Raa for the invasio, and Whett fled with the droid. Whett then found work as a research anthropologist working for Duttes Mer in
the Rafa System before coming to the Oseon, where he did some research on the Sharu. Little did Whett know that Mer was working
with the Tund Sorcerer Rokur Gepta to locate the Mindharp and use it to control the system. They used Whett to help them locate all
the various Sharu legends, and then sent him to the Oseon System to seek out all possible candidates who fit the description of the
Bearer. When Whett encountered Lando Calrissian, he tricked Lando into winning the droid Vuffi Raa, who was being held on Rafa IV
as a stand-in for the Emissary of Sharu legend. Whett was further pulled into Gepta's web following Lando's recovery of the Mindharp.
Whett was commissioned by Gepta to study the Oswaft, and determine who they could best be used to further Gepta's plans for power.
Whett tried to secretly determine what kind of creature Gepta was, but was unable to so, because his role in the destruction of the
Renatasian invasion was discovered by Klyn Shanga. Shanga turned his forces loose on Whett's tiny ship, which was connected to
Shanga's battleship pinnace by a tractor beam. Shanga used the beam to maneuver Whett's ship into a side collision with the Wennis,
vaporizing Whett and his ship while destroying the Wennis and her crew. (LCM, LCS)
Oswaft
a race of huge, manta-ray-like aliens that evolved in the vacuum of space, the Oswaft grew in the region of space known as the
ThonBoka, or StarCave. They evolved over the eons into space grazers, filtering the various elements that float in the vacuum. They
are powerful, winged creatures which have a multitude of fleshy tendrils streaming from their undersides, which allow them to
manipulate objects. Normal adults have been known to reach lengths of 750 meters or more, while the Elders can grow to 1,000
meters. They have strange, transparent flesh, inside which can be seen the colors and sparks of chemical reactions. When they die,
their flesh becomes opaque, and eventually decomposes into its molecular components. They can communicate across vast distances
almost instantly, and have developed a way to enter hyperspace by themselves. This allows them to travel anywhere in an instant,
although the nature of the Oswaft is to stay at home in the StarCave, avoiding the dangers of what they call the Open Sea of space.
They are incredibly intelligent, but have only gained knowledge within the confines of the StarCave. They are thusly unimaginative, but
have incredibly long lifespans steeped in conservative traditions. They have the ability to sythesize complex molecular structures,
provided that they have the raw atomic material to start with. The Oswaft society is ruled by a group of Elders, and was believed to
have numbered in the billions, just inside the ThonBoka. When the Empire learns of the existence of the Oswaft, they believe that the
huge creatures are a threat to their galaxy, and blockade the mouth of the nebula. They regularly issue poisonous discharges, killing
the pre-organic motes that float into the ThonBoka and provide sustanence to the lifeforms inside. Lando Calrissian talks the Oswaft
into fighing for the ThonBoka, and together they break the blockade. (LCS)
Ota
it was on this frozen world that Luke Skywalker intercepted Boba Fett, who was trying to locate the Mole. They were both captured by
the Snogars, who wanted them to repair their city heaters. They escaped, and were met by Han Solo and Leia Organa. Solo was
captured by the Snogars, and Fett agreed to help Luke rescue Han. They were all caught by the appearance of the Mole, who used a
huge magnetic generator to pin Fett to a wall while they all made their way off-planet. (CSWEA)
Otana
this Corellian transport was owned by the Alliance, and was used to transfer bacta from remote sources to supply depots. It was one of
the ships which benefitted from the bacta sources known to the Azzameen family and Twin Suns Transport Services. (XWA)
Other, The
a member of a large number of aliens who have existed for eons in the depths of space, descending from a rac of sentient machines
created by a race that was wiped out when their sun went supernova. Their race has grown stagnant, and they long for excitement and
risks. One such risk became a problem for them, as it caused violence and destruction, and they were forced to recover it. (LCS)
Otherspace
1) this is a vast expanse of dead, lifeless worlds floating in a dark gray nothingness. It is known to a small group of deep-space
explorers, as well as anyone who knows of the Charon race. Otherspace is dominated by clouds of energy which swirl and swarm
around starships, causing problems with navigational and communications systems. Stars in Otherspace appear as black holes, and
their planets have been scoured by the Charon and their death cult. Most starships which suffer hyperdrive malfunctions while traveling
through hyperspace get deposited into otherspace, where they wander aimlessly, unable to maintain their shipboard systems and
unable to resist the Charon. (OS)
2) this specialized obstacle was used on swoopchasing courses. It was similar in design to The Channel, in that it was a completely
enclosed portion of the race course. However, there were no light inside the Otherspace arena to guide the riders. Instead, a series of
infrared beacons marked out the path which the riders must take. This required that riders quickly put on a set of infrared goggles prior
to entry, or they would be utterly blind inside the arena. Alien races who could see in both the visible and infrared spectra were at a
slight advantage on courses with this obstacle. Because of the high level of danger involved with the Otherspace obstacle, the only
sanctioned races which use it are open to experts with several years of experience. Outlaw races used Otherspace at any level, and
often booby-trapped the Otherspace arena with ion flares to momentarily blind those riders wearing infrared goggles. (BSS)
Otherworld Encounter
this adventure supplier was located on Cloud City, and provided paying customers with a chance to hike across the surface of Bespin's
inner core in a virtual-reality environment. To ensure that patrons are happy, and remain cognizant of the fact that the illusion wasn't

Outrunner
an Alliance modified light freighter used for Project Shantipole. (SFS)
Outsider Citadels
this was the name of the contained cities maintained by the offworlders who lived on the planet Cerea. Because the native Cereans
discouraged the use of high technology, offworlders were limited in their use to the Citadels. Many Cerean elders despised the Citadels
for the pollution and waste they produced. (PTR)

Outworlder City
a city on the planet Ergeshui. In the Ergesh language, the name of the city is Oorglush, which can be translated as Dry Ground, Safe At
Last, or Sanity. Outworlder City is covered by a transparent dome that allows the inhabitants to control the climate to suit their needs. It
was built to allow off-worlders visiting Ergesh to live in comfort, if they weren't used to the swampy environment. Very few Ergesh enter
the city, considering it too sterile. It is connected to Erglush by the planet's living monorail, a system of vines that grow bean-shaped
pods. These pods travel along the vines via expuslion of natrual gases and photsynthetic charges. (PG2)
Ouwray, Ekam
this Imperial governor replaced Stant Rosswell on Indu San. Where Rosswell maintained the New Order while allowing the natives to
thrive, Ouwray was a hard-line supporter of Palpatine. Many of the favors that business leaders on Indu San had obtained under
Rosswell dried up, and Ouwray was despised. When the natives rose up against him, Ouwray fled the system in a show of cowardice

advancing to the position of Rayter Sector Moff. When the Farool Brothers approached him with a plan to discredit the Alliance, he
grudgingly supported it. He allowed them to capture Crying Dawn Singer, but when Nak Farool issued a holotransmission stating that
Owen was unsympathetic and couldn’t assist in rescuing the Shashay, Owen became furious. He executed Nak Farool on the spot, and
commanded Jonnas Perrsta to contain the Shashay. When the Alliance stepped in to rescue Crying Dawn Singer, Owen ordered the
Impending Doom to cut them off. Neither objective was met, and Owen carried a deep-seated grudge for the Alliance and its agents
from that point on. (TA)

an Imperial Navy Admiral, it was rumored that Ozzel gained his position because his family had close ties to the Imperial Navy. It was
Ozzel who presided over the dishonorable discharge of Han Solo, after the young cadet ignored his superior officer’s orders and freed a
Wookiee slave. He was given the command of the Star Destroyer Executor, which allowed the Imperial Naval Staff to keep an eye on
Vader while he hunted down the Alliance. Ozzel was placed in charge of the fleet that attacked Hoth, and brought the fleet out of
lightspeed just outside the Hoth System. He felt that the surprise arrival of the fleet would shock the Alliance. Instead, the presence of
the fleet was quickly noted by the Alliance, which gave them time to prepare their escape. Ozzel was killed by Vader for his failure to
cleanly cpature the Hoth base. Ozzel was portrayed by Michael Sheard in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, and by Peter Michael
Goetz for the The Empire Strikes Back Radio Drama on National Public Radio. (ESB, ESBR, MTS, THG)

academics like Bloor, were given instant tenure for an investigative report on Porcellus, P'tan flew into a rage. To make matters worse,
Bloor planned to interview Jabba the Hutt himself. P'tan interrupted Bloor's petition for University funding, saying that Bloor was too
young, and he would make mistakes in his data. P'tan used his seniority to go in Bloor's place. In his infinite wisdom, P'tan hired
Salacious Crumb to be his guide to Jabba. However, P'tan never returned from his trip to Tatooine, since Jabba quickly tired of him
and threw the Kalkal into the Pit of Carkoon, to be digested by the Sarlacc. (TJP)

P'w'eck
this alien race resembled smaller versions of the Ssi-ruuk, and were also native to Lwhekk. The Ssi-ruuk used the P'w'ecks as slaves
on their starships. The average P'w'eck has been bred by the Ssi-ruuk to be a drone, lacking any form of creativity or initiative. At fifteen
years of age, all P'w'ecks were enteched by the Ssi-ruuk. At this age, the P'w'eck was old enough to reproduce but not yet matured into
a full adult. The Ssi-ruuk discovered that P'w'ecks who were allowed to mature became unstable and violent, and were useless as
slaves. (TB, AE)
P'w'itthki
this deity was the father of the P'w'eck species. According to the Ssi-ruuk's sacred tome, the G'nnoch, there were four eggs formed at
the creation of the universe. From the first hatched Ssi and P'w'itthki. Ssi's children hatched from the second egg, while P'w'itthki's
children hatched from the third egg. The fourth egg was reserved for those descendants who earned a place in the afterlife. P'w'itthki
taught his hatchlings to hate those of Ssi, showing them how to make war on their brethern. Eventually, Ssi was forced to defeat
P'w'itthki in combat, but allowed P'w'itthki's hatchlings to live on, serving the children of Ssi forall eternity. This myth describes the
beginning of the relationship between the Ssi-ruuk (htachlings of Ssi) and the P'w'eck (hatchlings of P'w'itthki). (TBSB)

Koyi Komad, she was knowledgeable in the area of Jedi relics and artifacts, and was concerned that many sites were being robbed of
Jedi lore before they could be adequately studied and archived. Doctor Pace once told Corran Horn that a colleague had discovered a
site, only to wake up the next morning to find the site scoured of artifacts and her memory erased about what she had found. Horn
suspected that some of the vigilante Jedi Knights had stolen the artifacts, but he had no proof. Doctor Pace led the group of students
who traveled to Bimmiel to search for ancient relics, and was one of the first to discover the remains of a Yuuzhan Vong warrior on the

roots. The nose of the Pacithhip is elephantine, allthough the nostrils are located close to the skull. The trunk ends with the being's
mouth. Two large, black eyes are located at the top of the skull. The shape and size of their tusks established an individual's place in
society, as there were three basic genetic patterns which led to the growth of tusks. Based on the genes they carried, an individual
Pacithhip would become a warrior, a scholar, or a farmer. (CCG9, AE)

Padawan
this is a Jedi term for a young student of the Force. During the height of the Old Republic, beings who were strong with the Force were
identified at a young age for training, often before their first year of life. Young beings were transported to the Jedi Temple on
Coruscant, where they were brought up to respect the Force and the life it suffuses. Trainees were allowed to train until they were
chosen as Padawan learners by a Jedi Master, or until they were thirteen years old. If a learner was not chosen as a Padawan by his
thirteenth birthday, it was decided that the young student would never have the drive and skills to become a full Jedi Knight, and they
were given lesser assignments by the Jedi Council. Each Padawan was distinguished by a short, close-cropped hairstyle which was
accented by a thin braid. The braid’s length, together with small beads braided into the hair, denoted the Padawan’s level of training.
On the occasioin of a Padawan's thirteenth birthday, solemn reflection adn meditation were required by the student, and the Master
often gave them a meaningful gift. (PTR, SW1, RF, HP)

Page
Page was from the planet Corulag. He disapproved of his father's position as a pampered Imperial Senator, and was none too happy
when his father sent him to the Academy. However, Page turned the situation to his own goals, and used the freedom from his father to
study all sorts of things about the military. He graduated with honors, and was assigned as a scout in General Veers' command in the
Army. He defected to the Alliance after hearing one of Princess Leia's anti-Imperial speeches on Coruscant, agreeing with her
assessment of the Empire and the state of the galaxy. Page stayed on after witnessing the heroic efforts of Luke Skywalker and Han
Solo. Page was recruited by Crix Madine as a commando, and he was part of Bren Derlin's troops on Hoth, as well as Madine's assault
team at Endor. When Derlin took a desk job following the Battle of Endor, Page was promoted to Lieutenant, but refused to be
promoted further, having seen that rank had nothing to do with the level of commitment from Solo or Skywalker. Unless I’m mistaken,
Page is portrayed as a humanoid with thick skull-ridges in the comic adaptation of Heir to the Empire. Note that the Star Wars
Customizable Card Game - Endor Expansion claims Page was already a Lieutenant prior to the Battle of Endor. (HTTE, COTF, HTSB,

Nereus’ cruel methods of keeping the peace kept her more than busy. She grew bitter working for the Empire, and even considered
joining the Alliance. She didn’t know how to contact them, so she smuggled medical supplies to the Bakuran underground. In the wake
of the Battle of Bakura, Pakkallo decided to join the fledgling New Republic. (TBSB)

Pala Kwi'teksa
this young Twi'lek girl was a slave in Mos Espa, and was a friend of young Anakin Skywalker. Before arriving on Tatooine, Pala was
first enslaved by the Toydarian baron Begubb. Begubb had demanded an annual payment of ryll spice to "protect" her village, and
when the natives couldn't pay, Begubb took the smartest and brightest children instead. She was educated at Madame Vansitt's Charm
Academy to be an assassin, and was sold to Lord Tantos shortly before Anakin defeated Sebulba in the Boonta Eve Classic podrace.
However, she and Anakin discovered a group of Ghostling children captured by Sebulba, and they tried their best to rescue them from
Gradulla the Hutt. Gardulla was able to identify Pala from a flake of skin found in Gardulla's dungeons, and Madame Vansitt had no
choice but to destroy Pala. Luckily for Pala, Anakin had given her a signal jammer to wear, which blocked the destruction transmission.
After helping the Ghostlings reach Bantha Rock and the ship of Rakir Banai, Pala escaped Tatooine with Dorn. (E1A5, E1A7, E1A8)

Palpatine
1) Palpatine served his homeworld of Naboo as a Senator in the Old Republic, and was instrumental in the rise to power of the Trade
Federation. A student of the Dark Side of the Force, Palpatine used his political savvy to develop alliances with other power-hungry
individuals to begin his own bid for power. He used the Trade Federation – with its cowardly Neimoidian leaders – to force the Old
Republic to see its stagnant ways. After manipulating his Queen, Amidala, to call for a vote of no-confidence in Supreme Chanceller
Valorum, Palpatine put himself at the forefront of the coming elections. In a vote which was based on sympathy for Naboo and the
many alliances Palpatine had forged, he was voted to replace Valorum at the age of fifty. While remaining unobtrusive and often
helpful, Palpatine manipulated the Old Republic until it began to crumble from within, at which time he took control and named himself
Emperor. As Emperor, the supreme ruler of the Empire. A student in the ways of the Dark Side of The Force. He was a xenophobe,
though he used aliens when it suited him. Through his use of the Dark Side, he gained a large body of knowledge on the use of clones
to become virtually immortal. The fresh supply of new bodies ensured that the destructive power of the Dark Side never killed him. Early
in his tenure as Emperor, Palpatine recognized the strength of Anakin Skywalker, and twisted the young Jedi to the Dark Side of the
Force. The Emperor used Sith magics to recover Anakin's body, following a duel with Obi-Wan Kenobi, and revive it. The new spirit
discarded its old name and became Darth Vader. Palpatine taught Vader in the ways of the Dark Side, but was always wary of the
possibility that Vader might have had children. Palpatine ruled the galaxy as Emperor for nearly 25 years, until he was killed by Darth
Vader aboard the second Death Star, over the Forest Moon of Endor. Palpatine's body was consumed by the fierce power generators
in the battle station, but his spirit survived. It took the disembodied Palpatine so long to reach the planet Byss that he was nearly
drained of any power in the Dark Side. Once on Byss, though, he was able to contact Sate Pestage, who readied a new cloned body for
the Emperor. Palpatine spent years recovering his powers in the Dark Side, all the while watching the Empire crumble under the sheer
luck of the New Republic. He had hopes for Grand Admiral Thrawn, but the alien's death only helped Palpatine gain more power. When
he emerged from hiding on Byss, he sought to retake the galaxy using World Devastators. He was also trying to turn Luke Skywalker to
the Dark Side, which he nearly succeeded in doing. However, the presence of Luke's sister, Leia Organa, and her unborn child pulled
Luke back to the Light Side. Together, they turned the Emperor's rage back on himself, and destroyed yet another incarnation on the
evil Emperor. Since this last body was killed on Byss, Palpatine had an easier time placing his spirit into a new clone. However, Luke
managed to destroy all of the remaining clones Palpatine had ready for use, and so when his body began to deteriorate, he started
searching for Anakin Solo again. He quickly began launching new attacks against the New Republic, this time with a weapon known as
the Galaxy Gun. Skywalker enlisted the aid of the Ysanna - a race of Force-sensitives descended from ancient Jedi stock - as well as
the assistance of Empatajayos Brand, to confront the Emperor on Onderon. There, Palpatine's dying body tried desperately to reach
Anakin Solo. Brand intervened, though, and consumed the Emperor's spirit within his own. Both Brand and Palaptine died on Onderon.
Later, during the rise of Second Imperium, a group of former Imperial Royal Guards began using their experience with Palpatine to
actually pretend to be the Emperor reborn. Using carefully spliced holovid segments, they were able to project a perfect image of the
Emperor, and were also able to synthesize speech from recordings. Whenever they traveled, they used droids to carry a large isolation
chamber which ostensibly housed the reborn Palpatine. Their ruse fooled Brakiss and the leaders of the Shadow Academy, until they
were discovered in the aftermath of the battle over Yavin 4. Clive Revill supplied Palpatine's voice in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes
Back, while Ian McDiarmid portrayed the Emperor himself in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. Palpatine was also portrayed by Paul Hecht
for the The Empire Strikes Back Radio Drama on National Public Radio. (SW, ESB, ESBR, ROTJ, DE1, HTTE, DE2, EE, DK, SW1,

to civilian duty, Panaka served under Captain Magneta, and quickly made his presence known on Naboo. He worked to revise many of
the planet’s military doctrines and practices. Eventually, Panaka was appointed Captain of the Guard when Magneta resigned, and
made every effort to protect the new Queen of the Naboo, Amidala. Ensuring that the Queen would always be safe, Panaka supervised
the selection of five handmaidens to support Amidala. Each girl was chosen for her loyalty and strength, as well as her resemblance to
Amidala. When the Trade Federation blockaded the planet, Panaka stood beside his Queen, and helped her ensure her safety by
switching her with Padme, one of her handmaidens. Later, Panaka accompanied the Queen to Coruscant, along with Qui-Gon Jinn and
Obi-Wan Kenobi. Panaka was unconvinced tha t the Jedi were working for the Queen’s own good, but deferred to her judgement.
When they returned to Naboo with plans to break the blockade themselves, Panaka supported his Queen’s plans, although he was
quick to point out the inherent flaws. When the Battle of Naboo broke out, Panaka was in his customary position, fighting beside
Amidala and helping her capture Nute Gunray. Coupled with the destruction of the Droid Control Ship and the defeat of the Federation’s
droid armies, freed the planet Naboo from the blockade. Captain Panaka was portrayed by Hugh Quarshie in the film Star Wars:

cargo. It was hyperdrive-equipped and shielded, and was armed with a unique laser cannon set-up. The laser cannon could draw
power from the shields, as the shields absorbed blaster energy from an attacking ship. This augmented the power of the laser cannon,

detecting and intercepting the presence of a large warship passing through hyperspace in its vicinity, and it could even tap into
hyperspacial communications. The patrol frigate was not equipped with any form of decryption software, and so any signals it received

Paxxi Derida
this was the name of the Phindian pilot who was to transport Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi from Bandomeer to Gala, where they
would mediate a general election. The Phindian was quite rude, and it was possible that he only gave the name "Pilot" to insult them.
Instead of transporting them to gala, however, Pilot faked a fuel leak and brought them out of hyperspace near Phindar. After a false
battle with a pair of starfighters, Pilot landed the ship in Laressa and hoped that assassin droids would kill off the Jedi. Pilot fled into the
city. He found the Jedi again and led to a small cafe' where he introduced them to his brother, Guerra Derida. There, Paxxi revealed
that they had to fake the fuel leak in order to get past the blockade set up by the Syndicat, from whom he and his brother were fugitives.
The brothers were part of a small group of freedom fighters who were working to overthrown the Syndicat, but they needed the Jedis'
help and were afraid to ask. After gaining Qui-Gon's confidence, they were able to break into the Syndicat's stronghold and expose the
vast stores of food and supplies being held there. Paxxi was injured in the battle which ensued, but survived. When their plans came to
fruition and they were able to bring down the Syndicat, Paxxi built a monument in the center of Laressa from the assassin droids of the
Syndicat. He claimed that the Phindians had to face their evil in order to conquer it. (HP)
PB-950
a very old model Corellian Engineering Corporation patrol ship. They were first manufactured about 300 years before the Galactic Civil
War, and were used by a great many systems to patrol and defend themselves. Production of the PB-950 was halted after the Clone
Wars, when larger and more powerful corvettes were starting to be produced. The PB-950 measures 37 meters in length, and required
a pilot, co-pilot, and two gunners to operate. The ship has a twin-hull design, with the central section divided into two decks. The upper
deck contained the cockpit and weapons emplacements. The ship was capable of transporting up to 180 metric tons of cargo, and up to

storage and transceiving, and an analysis/encoding computer equipped with a TranLang III communications madule. These ships were
designed to send and receive Sector Plexus messages in a system, then jump to the next system. They never had a jump longer than a
day, due to their efficient routing algorithms. (ISB)
Peace

Peace Brigade
this group of dissidents was formed during the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, some twenty-five years after
the Battle of Endor. The Peace Brigade maintained that the Jedi Knights and the New Republic were doing more harm than good in
fighting against the Yuuzhan Vong, and advocated the formation of a peace treaty with the Yuuzhan Vong to end the hostilities. The
Peace Brigade openly denounced the Jedi Knights, claiming it was their lack of compassion which destroyed Ithor and Obroa-skai. The
Peace Brigade was known to have been providing information on planetary defenses to the Yuuzhan Vong, which they had gained from
a source that had somehow infiltrated the highest levels of New Republic security. The group decided to prove their loyalty and worth to
the Yuuzhan Vong after Reck Desh learned of Elan's seeming defection to the New Republic. They used a high-level contact to learn of
her transport to Coruscant, and prepared to waylay the Queen of Empire in order to capture her and return her to the Vong. The
Brigade was unaware that Elan was acting with the knowledge of the Yuuzhan Vong, and their entire plan to eliminate the Jedi Knights
was dashed when the Peace Brigade ambushed the ship. However, the leaders of the Peace Brigade were undaunted in trying to gain
power. They insinuated themselves into the plans surrounding the reclamation of Duro’s natural environment, manipulating various
shipping companies into buying votes within the Duros High House. (HT, BP)
Peacekeeper
this was a model of Imperial low-orbit patrol craft. (ML)
Peacekeeper
this Dreadnaught served as part of the command fleet used by Admiral Greelanx during the Battle of Nar Shaddaa. It was commanded

supply ship, the Lightning Rod. He befriended the boy Zekk, whom he discovered after a supply run to the devastated world of Ennth.
He and took him in and cared for him, and eventually made Zekk his apprentice. When Peckhum discovered Zekk’s affinity for the
Force, he allowed the boy to join the Jedi Academy, and continued to make his supply runs. The New Republic realized that Peckhum’s
services to the Academy were invaluable, and so they gave him a newer supply ship to replace the aging Lightning Rod. He, in turn,
bequeatehd the old ship to Zekk, when the boy decided to strike out on his own. (HTF, LO, SHA)

and so she adopted the surname of Scotian in his honor. (SOC)
Pedrin, Nial
this Imperial Major was placed in command of the garrison on Hargeeva for two reasons: his loyalty and adherence to the New Order,
and his knowledge of geology. He was a lifetime officer who hated individuality and variety. A short, stocky man, Pedrin was a fintess
fanatic and was always meticulously groomed, further indications of his obsessive/compulsive personality. In his early career with the
Imperial military, Pedrin served as the commander of an AT-AT platoon before he was chosen for the position on Hargeeva. He made

Pek
this Sedrian was the leader of the city of Fitsay, and the son of the high priest Cardo. A priest in his own right, Pek believed that the
Golden Sun was a gift to all Sedrians, a belief that went against his father's own beliefs. When a group of Alliance agents came to Sedri
to rescue Mors Odrion, Pek believed that they were on the planet to help the Sedrians, not interfere with them. Again, this went against
Cardo's belief, and Cardo ordered Pek to stay away from them. Pek, however, chose to do what he thought was right for the people of
Fitsay, and led the agents to the Imperial garrison. They also discovered the location of Karak's base, and discovered the Fala was
working with her father. After revealing that Karak and Commander Aban were working to claim the Golden Sun for themselves, Fala
decided to move against her father and joined forces with Pek and the Alliance agents. They were able to defeat Karak by helping the
Golden Sun scatter itself across the surface of Sedri, breaking Karak's power and leaving him defenseless. Pek and Fala agreed to
work toward repairing the rift which had formed in Sedrian society, and eventually were married. (BGS)

missiles. Everyone on the troopship was killed. (EE)
Pelagon
this ocean-covered planet was the first world settled in Tapani Sector, more than 13,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. It was settled
by the ships of the Pella Compact, which maintained government of the original colonies for a thousand years. Over the millennia, cities
were built over the warm seas, and great continents were formed from manmade structures. Over time, the wastes of these cities
began polluting the oceans, and by the advent of the New Order, the seas of Pelagon were unable to support life. As House Mecetti
rose to power, power struggles led to the destruction of many of these cities, further littering the oceans with debris. Note that the
Players Guide to Tapani also refers to this planet as Pelagia. (LE, PGT)

and initiated the first alliances with the Herglics. The Compact was dissovled when the Tapani Sector was fragmented during the
Twelve Kingdoms Era. (PGT)
Pellaeon, Gilad
elderly Imperial Navy Captain in command of the Chimaera, Pellaeon took the remnants of the Imperial fleet and retreated from the
Battle of Endor. He had no desire to lead the Empire, but he felt it was his duty to keep the Imperial fleet together. Thus, when Grand
Admiral Thrawn emerged from the Unknown Regions to take control of the Empire, Pellaeon was more than willing to turn the fleet over
to Thrawn, despite Thrawn's obviously alien background. He served Thrawn well, respecting the alien's uncanny insights while
providing tactical assistance when necessary. Following the death of Thrawn at the hands of his own bodyguard, Rukh, Pellaeon took
Thrawn's remaining ships and fled to the Core Systems, where he came in contact with High Admiral Teradoc. The two marshalled a
large fleet of Victory-class Star Destroyers, and rivaled Harrsk for leadership of the Imperial forces for a number of years. When Daala
showed up and tried to combine the strengths of the feuding warlords, Pellaeon sided with Daala, who only wanted to restore the
Empire. The two of them arranged a summit of all the warlords on Tsoss Station, but were forced to poison them all when they failed to
cooperate. Pellaeon became Daala's first officer, and was placed in command of the remaining seventeen Imperial-class Star
Destroyers. He was to be the primary attack for that assaulted the Jedi Academy on Yavin 4. His attack was perfect, slipping into the
system before the Jedi knew it. However, his Imperial conditioning failed to prepare him for the power of the Force. The Jedi, under the
focus of Dorsk 81, used the Force to physically fling the entire Star Destroyer fleet out of the Yavin System, knocking out navigations
and hyperdrives. Pelleaon was able to recover all his ships, as well as Admiral Daala's escape pod, before leaving to the system. After
Daala's rescue, she resigned her command, and turned control of the Imperial fleet over to him. While he did not want to rule the
Empire, this was the Battle of Endor all over again. He took the fleet back to the Core Systems to regroup. Pellaeon assumed the
position of Supreme Commander of the Imperial Navy, and worked against all odds to rebuild the fleet. He spent several years trying to
overcome the problems with the cloaking device, and eventually tested the Computer Combat Predictor. However, its inability to truly
aid in a cloaked fight was the last straw in the back of the dwindling Imperial animal. He suggested to Moff Disra that the Imperial
remnants should negotiate a surrender with the New Republic some ten years after Thrawn’s death, hoping to obtain amnesty rather
than execution. Although the majority of the Moffs were in agreement with the plan, Disra's own machinations kept him from
wholeheartedly agreeing. Pellaeon began his attempts to contact the Republic by sending Colonel Vermel to meet with Garm Bel Iblis,
but Disra captured Vermel before his message was fully delivered. Pellaeon, meanwhile, waited for Bel Iblis as Pesitiin, where Disra
sent Zothip and the Cavrilhu Pirates to ambush him. Pellaeon's forces dispatched the pirates, but continued to wait for Bel Iblis.
However, Bel Iblis was on a mission to Yaga Minor, so it was Ghent who actually received the truncated message from Vermel. He
brought the message to Leia Organa-Solo, who agreed to meet with Pellaeon. Their initial talks were tentative but promising, and both
agreed to return to their sides and meet at a later date. Meantime, Pellaeon and Commander Dreyf discovered Disra's plans, and
began to press the matter with the Moff. Pellaeon eventually won out over the renegade Moff Disra, and soon signed a peace treaty
with the New Republic. He assumed command of what became known as the Imperial Remnant, and maintained a distanced
relationship with the Republic until the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy. Then, Pellaeon agreed to help the war effort. (HTTE, DFR,

Pendower, Maglenna
a native of Alderaan, this dark-skinned woman was once one of Leia Organa's lesser aides during the Galactic Civil War. She spent
much of her time covering for Leia's activities with the Alliance, creating cover stories to feed to the Imperial Senate and the newsnets.
With the destruction of Alderaan, Maglenna lost her father and two brothers. She held out a small hope that her younger brother was
off-planet when the Death Star wiped it out, but she found it difficult to locate him. After enrolling in the Alliance's medical training
program, she graduated near the top of her class, but was chastised by Leia, who thought Maglenna's skills as an undercover agent
were more valuable than her field skills. Maglenna, however, wanted to be where the action was. Leia managed to get Maglenna a
"safe" posting within the Alliance's Supply and Ordnance division, and Maglenna served under Colonel Stijhl at the Gelgelar Free Port
drop point during the Galactic Civil War. She maintained her skills as a field medic, and proved her abilities in helping Ihvin Jayme
revive Morgan Raventhorn after Morgan was electrocuted aboard The Maker. She later helped Jayme defeat the Doom Slayer droid
which was discovered aboard The Maker. After T'Charek Haathi’s team survived the attack of a Doom Slayer droid on Gelgelar,
Maglenna agreed to join Haathi's team while Dren Nord left the team to work with Colonel Stijhl’s team. Maglenna just hoped that Leia
wouldn't discover her new role before Maglenna could become a full-fledged Special Operations agent. (SESB, SWJ14)

this Dobrutz starliner served as a Obroan Institute research vessel. It was dispatched under the command of Joto Eckels, who was in
the midst of an exploration of the planet Hoth, when it was suddenly dispatched to Brath Qella. Kroddok Stopa had requested
assistance from Eckels, since the Penga Rift was outfitted with many cold-environment exploration tools, where the IX-26 was not.
However, Eckels and the Penga Rift were not able to arrive at Brath Qella before Stopa and his assistant, Josala Krenn, were killed in
an avalanche on the planet. The Penga Rift was under the command of Captain Dolk Barjas, and measured 126 meters in length. The

shield generator. Horvic and Pensin posed as the night clean-up crew at a Ho-Din cafe near the generator site. He later assisted them
in digging out a tunnel to gain access to the power generators of the shields. Once Navett was in place and ready to take out the shield
generator, Pensin accompanied Klif anfd Horvic on a sabotage mission. Disguised as New Republic technicians, they managed to get

and leaders. This hardened his resolve to eradicate the Empire, and when the time came he became a governmental leader. His
appointment to the New Republic Senate came a few months before Nil Spaar arrived on Coruscant. His experiences at the hands of
the Empire led him to an alliance with the Yevethan against what Nil Spaar called "Leia Organa-Solo's personal ambitions." He was

both on the ground and in space, before he could be considered for election to the post. By his mere presence in a room or at a
gathering, the perator demanded full attention. However, he could lower the visor on his crown to indicate a distancing of himself from
the crowd, thereby freeing those assembled from the need for attention. In this way, the perator could enjoy the gathering without
affecting the behavior of the others. (SOA)

Pergitor
this planet, located in a star system of the same name, is found in the Minos Cluster. It was once a lush, tropical garden of a world, and
it held a rich cache of rare and exotic minerals. The original settlers were employees of Jesa Corporation who came to Pergitor to mine
the minerals. The planet’s ruling class descended from Jesa Corporation’s leadership. The mining operations continued to take material
out of the planet’s crust, until intense deep-bore mining by the Jesa Corporation resulted in a volcanic eruption which filled the
atmosphere with ash for several years. The eruptions occurred about 100 years before the Battle of Yavin, and tons of toxic elements
were expelled by the volcanos. These chemicals are now a permanent part of the atmosphere, and life on Pergitor has been nearly
wiped out. The remaining natives must use gasmasks when travelling outside, and all buildings are built air-tight to keep the chemicals
out. The average day on Pergitor encompasses 34 standard hours, and its year lasts 291 local days. (GG6)

hoped to meet Garm Bel Iblis near Pesitiin, some ten years after the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn, in an effort to discuss a peace
treaty between the New Republic and the remnants of the Empire. Pellaeon had sent Colonel Vermel to Morishim to deliver an
inviation, but Vermel was intercepted by Moff Disra’s forces before he could get off a garbled message to Rogue Squadron. The
message was never completely understood, and so Bel Iblis never went to Pesitiin. Pellaeon did go, to wait for Bel Iblis, but was
attacked bu Cavrilhu Pirates. The pirate ships, operating under orders from Disra, were marked with Corellian Defense Forces insignia,
hoping to fool Pellaeon into believing Bel Iblis was attacking. Pellaeon didn’t buy the attack, recognizing several battle maeuvers that
Bel Iblis would not have attempted. Unshaken, Pellaeon remained at Pesitiin, waiting for Bel Iblis while questioning the loyalty of Disra.

Pestage, Sate
Emperor Palpatine's Grand Vizier, Pestage served the Emperor for an unknown number of years. He personally oversaw the
preparation of Palpatine's food, tasting it for poisons. He scheduled all of Palpatine's meetings, held the Imperial Seal, and managed
the Emperor's household. Pestage was one of the few people who knew about the Eidolon project, and actually diverted funds from it to
build a small retreat on Tatooine. He then hired Lirin Banolt to acquire artwork and antique weapons to furnish it. Banolt managed to
steal the plans for - and location of - the Eidolon, and threatened to blackmail Pestage, but the wily Vizier had Banolt executed before
any damage could be done. When the Emperor died at Endor, Pestage assumed control of the majority of the Empire's military, but his
rule was constantly questioned by other Imperial leaders. When Pestage lost his holdings on Ciutric to Prince-Admiral Krennel, he fled
to Axxila, hoping to evade Ysanne Isard. Pestage arranged to meet with Leia Organa, and the New Republic sent Winter to act as Leia
on a diplomatic mission to Eiattu to cover the Axxila trip. He offered her the chance to take the planet Coruscant in return for his own
safety. Leia agreed, and Pestage found a temporary safety. Pestage also helped Leonia Tavira flee from Axxila, ensuring that another
ally would be available if he needed one in his struggle against Ysanne Isard. Isard was only marginally loyal to Pestage, and had
suspicions of his meeting with Leia. Pestage also told Tavira about the Eidolon weapons cache, hoping she could recover anything
which remained. However, he earned the enmity of Isard when he ordered Admiral Krennel to stand down in his assault on Axxila, after
Soontir Fel issued an AT3 directive to break off the attack. Isard returned to the Imperial council and brought news of Pestage's
treachery, and the council ordered him to be removed form power. He fled to Ciutric with the help of Leonia Tavira, and was held by
Governor Brothic. However, a bribe kept Brothic from relaying word of his arrival to Isard, allowing the New Republic time to set up a
rescue operation. Commando Team One, with the support of Rogue Squadron and Aggressor Wing, was able to liberate Pestage
before Isard's forces could capture him. Pestage, however, had other ideas, and slipped away from the Republic agents and presented
himself to Admiral Krennel. Krennel, however, desired more than the prestige of recovering Pestage. He killed Pestage by strangling
him with his cybernetic hand. Note that the Dark Empire comics indiacte Pestage retired to Byss to await the possible return of
Palpatine's spirit. When this did occur, Pestage was there, ready to help the new-formed Palpatine regain his power and control. (DE1,

Petothel, Gara
this woman, a native of Coruscant and the daughter of two Imperial Intelligence agents, was lithely built and distinguished by a beauty
mark on her right cheek. Her parents groomed her to become an Intelligence agent herself, but they were arrested for an unspecified
crime when she was old enough to hate them and miss them at the same time. Since the Empire had been her life, she joined the
Intelligence agency and rose quickly through the ranks She spent a good deal of time in the guide of Chyan Mezzine, a New Republic
Naval officer. Later, as one of the code slicers who worked on the Morrt droid deployment project, she was able to provide the Republic
with the false information that led to the destruction of Talon Squadron. She also discovered the New Republic's base on Folor, but
actually found the false beacons placed on the opposite side of the moon. This allowed the starfighters to scramble and get away
before Trigit could attack. During the destruction of Trigit’s command ship, the Implacable, Petothel used her slicing skills to gain
entrance to Trigit’s personal escape pods to flee the ship before it could take her with it. After escaping, she wondered at the reasons
the Empire would condone the actions of a man like Trigit, who would willingly sacrifice his entire crew for a mission’s outcome,
especially if retreat would mean the chance to fight another day. After returning to Coruscant, she assumed the identity of Lara Notsil,
which involved dying and cutting her hair as well as removing her birthmark. As Lara, she eventually gained a place in Wraith
Squadron. The part of her that was still Gara wanted to use her new position to gain her a place with Warlord Zsinj, but after seeing the
New Republic’s actions from the other side, she decided to remain as Lara and break off all ties with the Empire. However, she re-used
the Gara Petothel identity after she was exposed by Garik Loran's investigations and fled the Wraiths, in order to gain access to Zsinj
and the Iron Fist. She claimed to be working for the Empire again, but instead managed to severely disable the Iron Fist before fleeing
to Corellia and adopting the identity of Kirney Slane. (WS, IF, SOC)

obscure world, which suited the smugglers and thieves which inhabited it just fine. An Imperial garrison was placed there to ensure the
locals remained quiescent, and it remained in place well after the Battle of Endor. Kanos was forced to kill several Imperial officers and
a squadron of stormtroopers in order to gain his freedom. Colonel Shev, who witnessed first-hand the skills of Kanos, sought to capture
him in order to secure a promotion. The planet has two moons, a larger brown moon, and a smaller green moon. (CE)

Phanan, Ton
this native of Rudrig was a pilot with the New Republic, and he was one of the original members of Wraith Squadron. Ton was the only
son of parents who had him late in life, and they both died before he finished his education. e served as a doctor aboard an Alliance
medical frigate during the Battle of Endor, but his ship was hit by a barrage of Imperial laser fire. A structural beam fell on him, causing
massive amounts of damage to his skull. As a result, he wore a prosthetic headgear that covered most of his face, but his remaining
blue eye and flowing moustahces gave him the appearance of an Imperial warlord. The prosthetics were necessary because Ton was
allergic to bacta. He served as Wraith Squadron's medical officer. During the battle which resulted in the destructon of the Implacable
near Ession, Phanan's X-Wing took a hit and he was forced to eject. Shrapnel from the explosion perforated his spleen, and he spent
some time on Borleias recovering. Once again, he was unable to receive bacta treatments, and his recovery was slow. He eventually
rejoined the Wraiths, and was instrumental in the early stages of the hunt for Warlord Zsinj. However, during the Hawk-bat raid on the
Imperial garrison in Hullis, on the planet Halmad, Ton was shot down in his TIE fighter by an Imperial pilot. His landing was too hard to
pull out of, and he suffered massive internal injuries in the crash. He was rescued by Garik Loran, who managed to avoid Imperial
patrols to get them closer to his own ship. However, before they could escape the planet, Ton died of his injuries. As he was requested,
Face burned Phanan's body, leaving nothing but ashes for the Imperials to find. In his will, he left Face a large sum of money, payable
only if Face had the large scar on his face surgically removed. If the scar wasn't removed, the money went to Loran's arch-nemisis,
Tetran Cowall. (WS, IF)

Phantom Project
the codename of the Mrlssi project to develop a working cloaking device for the Empire. It was developed by Rorax Falken and the
Mrlssti students working for him, and was essentially a smoke-screen designed to swindle the Empire out of every credit it would pay.
Funds for the Phantom Project were diverted to other research under Falken’s control, a fact that went unnoticed under Palpatine’s
reign. Following the death of Palpatine at Endor, the remnants of the Empire began demanding results from Falken, who had suffered a
breakdown upon learning of the use of his work in the construction of the Death Star. Gyr Keela, who succeeded Falken as President of
the Academy, was unaware that the Phantom Project was a faked, and attempted to deal with the Empire. He decided to gain every
credit possible by putting the Project up for bids to the New Republic and the remnants of the Empire. Wedge Antilles became the
Republic's representative in the negotiations for the Phantom's plans, opposite his old nemesis Loka Hask. The proposed design of the
Phantom Project was unique in that it required very little energy to maintain the cloaking effect over an entire ship. It also had the ability
to resist the effects of a gravity well projector. The falsehood of the Project was revealed when Rogue Squadron defeated Loka Hask
and discovered - from Falken’s students - that the project was not real. However, it did lead to the discovery of the gravitic polarization
beam. (XWPA)

could kill the armored bounty hunter and reap a nice profit for delivery of his body. However, Fett and Dengar managed to elude them
long enough to get a signal to Slave I. Hamame and Phedroi pinned the bounty hunters down in a small desert cave, but Fett brought
his ship from orbit to land on top of them. (MA)

joined the Empire shortly after his older brother was shot down and killed by Wedge Antilles during the Battle of Yavin. Phennir was
st
later chosen for the 181 by Fel himself, and was promoted to Commander after his personally killing four Alliance transports in the
st
ambush at Derra IV. Phennir was given command of a squadron in the 181 , while Fel was promoted to Colonel and command of the
entire group. Phennir held little loyalty to Sate Pestage, and hoped that Fel would leave Imperial service to form his own group of
Imperials. Phennir planned to defect with Fel, but was left out of the Baron's plans entirely. This left Phennir with a deep hatred of Fel.
He became the more decorated Imperial pilot in the wake of Fel's disappearance, and was nominated to represent the Empire when the
planet Adumar chose to become part of the galactic community. He found himself working against Wedge Antilles and the pilots of
Rogue Squadron while on Adumar, but had no qualms about shooting down every Adumari pilot who challenged him. In the civil war
which broke out as a result of Cartann's claim to be the seat of Adumar's world government, Phennir and his pilots sided with the nation
of Cartann. However, they were all shot down by Wedge and his pilots, who were flying for the Yedagonian Confederacy. Phennir
managed to survive, and fled back to the Agonizer. When the Star Destroyer returned to Adumar to take the world from the Republic, it
met with serious resistance from a massed Republic defense fleet. Phennir was shot down in battle, and was left to freeze in space until

teams, each trying to get a large ball or rock - known as a b'rrsk - into an opponent's goal, known as a g'rile. Loosely translated, the
term phrenbi meant "to decapitate." Each team starts with 15-20 players, but the physical nature of the sport meant that casualties were
inevitable. Once unable to continue playing, a phrenbi player must leave the field of play and could not return or be replaced. Different
formats have teams paired against each other, or players using banthas as mounts and moving the b'rrsk about with long sticks called
urran. In the basic sport, a phrenbi match is divided into three 30-minutes periods. If more than fifteen injuries result in dismissed
players, the match is called on account of attrition. (BSS)

Pits, The
1) this cantina was located on the planet Stend VI. There were two entrances to The Pits: via The Hive, and walking in through the
door. Over time, as swoop gangs took hold of Stend VI's culture, those who walked into The Pits were considered "ants," something to
be stepped on and swiped away. The main building was low to the ground, and housed the entertainment areas. The Hive, a
honeycombed column, rose above the bar itself, providing places to park swoops and other vehicles. The lowest sections housed the
bar and restuarants themselves, as well a repair facilities. Owned and operated by Blizz Pinnix, there was a section of The Pits
dedicated to the trophies and awards he had won over his forty-year career. Adjacent to The Pits were two facilities: Kuda's Compound,
which provided sales and service for repulsorlift vehicles; and the Raptor Run, which was a swoopracing course designed by Pinnix

Plat Hovath
Plat Mallar's father, he was a droid mechanic on Polneye. (BTS)
Plat Mallar
a Grannan from Polneye who fought against the Yevethan invaders during the Great Purge. He was training a group of youths in the
TIE Interceptors when the attack came, and he quickly took control of one of the old fighters. He was able to destroy a Yevethan TIE
Fighter before he was intercepted by an Imperial-class Star Destroyer. He turned tail and fled into the stars, where he tried to reach
someone who could help his people. The Interceptor was later picked up by a New Republic prowler ship and brought to Coruscant.
Mallar was sent to the New Republic Fleet Infirmary, where he came under the attention of Admiral Ackbar. Ackbar recognized the
potential in the youth, despite the severe exposure to deep-space cold and lack of nutrition. Mallar recovered, and became one of the
key witnesses against the Yevetha. He wanted nothing more than to join the Republic's Navy and fly a starfighter against the Yevetha,
and Ackbar spearheaded Mallar's acceptance into Naval training. Ackbar also personally oversaw Mallar's early training, placing him in
simulations against Yevethan starfighters in order to temper Mallar's hatred while honing his skills. When the orders came that the
Republic was blockading the Koornacht Cluster, Mallar was placed on active duty. He was tapped, along with several other pilots to fly
recon duty to survey Yevethan forces in the Cluster. Mallar never got a chance to fly, though, as others with more experience were sent
out first. Instead, Mallar drew escort duty for the shuttle Tampion, which was supposed to transport Han Solo to the Fifth Battle Group.
The shuttle was intercepter by the Yevetha and, despite the best efforts of the escorts, Solo was taken prisoner. He came under intense
scrutiny, but was not accused of negligence. He was then attached to the Fifth fleet, as a shuttle pilot on the Mandjur during the Battle
of N’zoth. His chance to prove himself came when the Mandjur was hit with Yevethan missiles and rendered powerless. He took
Captain Teggett’s X-Wing out and rescued several stranded pilots before the Rebublic was able to defeat the Yevethan fleet. (BTS,

Platform
any stationary, deep-space launch and supply site. There are six basic designs of platforms. Each is built around a central spire or hub,
which houses the storage facilities, living quarters, and operations centers. Extending from the central structure are three landing pads
which serve are runways, launch and landing sites, and repair and storage facilities. Most platforms measure 250 meters across, and
are armed with multiple turbolaser batteries and warhead launchers. They are also well-shielded, with 200-SBD shields protecting
100-RU hulls. The basic types of platforms are:
- Class 1 Platform (PLT-1) designed primarily as a landing platform, with
minimal living space
- Class 2 Platform (PLT-2) designed primarily as a landing platform, but with
more living space than a PLT-1 platform
- Class 3 Platform (PLT-3) expanded platform, with more living space than a
PLT-2 platform
- Class 4 Platform (PLT-4) an outpost platform, with minimal living space
and small landing pads
- Class 5 Platform (PLT-5) a large platform with a huge living space and
large landing pads
- Class 6 Platform (PLT-6) a large platform that is not armed with a warhead
launcher

there at least 30 years before that. Plett was rumored to be able to communicate with the animals, and legends say he controlled the
weather on Belsavis. He supposedly hid a group of Jedi children in the Plawal rift valley in order to hide them from the Jedi purge.
(COJ)

Jedi Master would someday sit on the Council, but recognized that his friend was much too headstrong to adjust to the Council’s rigors.
Being a Kel Dor, with enlarged external sensory organs, Plo Koon’s grasp and control of the Force was incredible, and he was known
among the Council for his warrior skills. Plo was legendary for his leadership during the Stark Hyperspace Wars, during which he rallied
the forces of the Old Republic after a Jedi Master was killed in battle. Plo Koon was portrayed by Alan Ruscoe in Star Wars: Episode I –

Ploovo 2-for-1
a loan shark, robber, and thief who operated in the Cron Drift during the New Order. He was a human known for his bad temper, a
nervous facial tic, and an oily, black topknot. Ploovo was living proof that good breeding and fine education don't always guarantee one
will turn out good. He left those things behind and started working for Jigoba as a minor loan shark. When he felt he was ready, Ploovo
struck out on his own, gradually expanding his empire until it stretched beyond the borders of the Corporate Sector. History has shown,
however, that Ploovo was too subtle or too timid to survive as a crimelord outside the bounds of the Corporate Sector. Thus, he
became successful there, but was not well-known to the Empire. He wears a wide assortment of faux gem pinky ring, and had no taste
in clothing. After Han Solo repaid Ploovo's duplicity by giving him a dinko as payment, Ploovo became mentally unstable when it came
to unusual creatures. He spent much of his fortune collecting texidermied carcasses and head of creatures, in an effort to show his
command over them. (HSE, CSA, HT)
