(GMR5) U2C1 this was a series of housekeeping droids produced by Publictechnic during the New Order. Short in stature, the U2C1 was made from hardened-plastic components, with long, pleated hoses for arms and spindly legs. These droids lacked a torso, with the head and neck meeting at the housing that contained the leg servomotors. The original series of U2C1 droids were quite reliable, although not extermely durable. During the height of the Galactic Civil War, it was learned that crimelords had modified the programming of U2C1 droids employed by hotels to suck up jewels and credit chips. (JE, EGD) U2C1 this blue housekeeping droid was employed in Jabba the Hutt's palace on Tatooine. The droid was later used to warn J'Quille that he was being blackmailed and was about to be killed. (TJP) U2-C1 see U2C1 (AEG) U-33 an old, out-dated, orbital loadlifter with a four-stage primary thrust sequence. Han Solo's training officer used one to help his cadets gain emergency landing experience at the Academy.

U-3PO was captured, and reprogrammed by the Empire for espionage purposes. (CCG2) Ualaq very little was known of this race of Aqualish, since much of the society of the planet Ando was dominated by the Quara and Aquala races. While the Ualaq had fingered hands like the Quara, but have four eyes instead of two, like the Aquala. Like the Quara, the Ualaq preferred to live on land, rather than in the ocean. (PH) Ualaq Pride the Confederacy of Independent Systems claimed that this mercenary gang was hired by the Old Republic through a group of Andoan loyalists, during the early stages of the Clone Wars. In direct violation of the Treaty of Raquish, the Separatists claimed that the Ualaq Pride used airstrikes to harass Andoan civilians, ostensibly to force the Andoan government to split from the Separatists and rejoin the Republic. (SWI67) Uamaw this was one of the most common male names used by members of the Ithorian race. Although most Ithorian names were not used for a specific meaning, historians found that this name meant "starlight". (GCG) Uaua this planet was the primary world in the Ua System of the Centrality. The native Quor'sav were nearly wiped out when offworld colonists - most of whom were mammalian - introduced a virus to the planet. While the colonists' biology allowed them to be immune carriers, the avian Quor'sav were quickly stricken by the virus and died. (GMR5) Uba this was the Huttese pronoun for "you." (GMR5) Uba I this world, the first in the Uba System, was ravaged by radioactive firestorms after the Old Republic attempted to curb the technological advance ofd the Ubese people. The Republic's pre-emptive attack actually detonated Ubese weapons stores on several worlds, including Uba I. The planet was wiped clean of any atmosphere it once had. (SESB) Uba II this world, the first in the Uba System, was ravaged by radioactive firestorms after the Old Republic attempted to curb the technological advance ofd the Ubese people. The Republic's pre-emptive attack actually detonated Ubese weapons stores on several worlds, including Uba iI. The planet was wiped clean of any atmosphere it once had. (SESB) Uba III this world, the first in the Uba System, was ravaged by radioactive firestorms after the Old Republic attempted to curb the technological advance ofd the Ubese people. The Republic's pre-emptive attack actually detonated Ubese weapons stores on several worlds, including Uba III. The resulting explosions were so great that they cracked the planet's crust, and gravity eventually ripped the planet apart. The orbital debris eventually formed an asteroid ring between Uba II and Uba IV. (SESB) Uba IV this world, the first in the Uba System, was ravaged by radioactive firestorms after the Old Republic attempted to curb the technological advance ofd the Ubese people. The Republic's pre-emptive attack actually detonated Ubese weapons stores on several worlds, including Uba IV. Unlike the rest of the system, however, Uba IV maintained an ability to support life, and the surviving Ubese people migrated to the planet. (SESB) Uba V this world, the first in the Uba System, was ravaged by radioactive firestorms after the Old Republic attempted to curb the technological advance ofd the Ubese people. The Republic's pre-emptive attack actually detonated Ubese weapons stores on several worlds, including Uba V. The planet was wiped clean of any atmosphere it once had. (SESB) Ubasameir this alien race has an inborn fondness for children of any race. (RM) Ubeninal this was the form of sign language developed by the Ubese people. It was their primary form of communication, with the spoken lanugage of Ubese being used when speaking with off-worlders. (ANT) Ubertica this planet, the primary world in the Ubertica star system, was located near the Uba System. It was populated by those Ubese who fled the destruction in their home system. Many of the planet's urban areas were destroyed during the New Order by the forces of the True Ubese led by Savax, who sought to wipe out the yrak pootzck Ubese living on Ubertica. The attack was halted when an Imperial fleet wiped out Savax's forces. (SESB) Ubese a humanoid aliens whose language has a metallic soundthe Ubese people are native to the Uba System. Millennia before the Battle of Yavin, the Ubese were a relatively isolated race with a highly-sophisticated culture. When the Uba System was discovered by the Old Republic, traders began bringing high-tech devices to the Ubese. They hoarded technology and learned to reverse-engineer much of it, developing their own forms of higher technology. The desire to obtain more technology began to splinter Ubese society, and their drive to have better technology split them even further. Delegates of the Old Republic soon discovered that the Ubese were producing technologies which had been outlawed by the Republic, and realized that much of it was military materiel designed for large-scale devastation. In an effort to curb the Ubese advancement, the Old Republic launched a pre-emptive strike to bring a halt to the production. Unfortunately, the Republic's attack exploded Ubese weapons stores on every world in the system, destroying Uba III outright and wreaking radioactive devastation on Uba I, Uba II, and Uba V. Only Uba IV remained marginally viable, and many Ubese were forced to survive there. The semi-toxic atmosphere forced them to wear specialized filtration masks, and altered their physiology in many ways. Those Ubese who survived and lived on Uba IV became known as the "true Ubese." Those that chose not to live on Uba IV migrated to the Ubertica System. These Ubese were shunned by their brethren on Uba IV as being too soft to be "true Ubese," and became known as the yrak pootzck, a term which indicated their impure parentage and cowardly ways. (ROTJ, SESB, AE) Ubese this was one of the written form of language developed by the Ubese people. It was a secondary language to Ubeninal whenever two Ubese were speaking to each other, and was reserved for discussions with non-Ubese beings.

Uda-Khalid was known to kill entire populations in order to obtain power over the people and their resouces. He cared little for life, except his own, and desired only more power and control. Uda-Khalid was distinguished by the row of short horns which ran back atop his skull from his forehead, and the long, drooping, black eyebrows which framed his huge face. The Jedi Council was alerted to his actions, and the lack of prosecution against him, and dispatched Mace Windu to bring him to justice. Uda-Khalid, however, wanted nothing to do with being taken in for justice, and challenged Windu to one-on-one combat. Unfortunately for Uda-Khalid, Windu's lightsaber training was impeccable. In a swift flourish, Windu speared Uda-Khalid though the heart. Uda-Khalid's reign of terror was over. (T13) Uday this Imperial Colonel served Moff Disra as a member of the Intelligence agency. It was Uday who discovered that the recording of an alien ship provided to the Empire by Carib Devist was actually a compilation of two records. The recording had originally been doctored together by Han Solo, in an effort to discover the location of Bastion. (VOF) Udeon, Camon this man was the leader of the Alliance cell on the planet Gerrard V, shortly before the Battle of Yavin. Imperial HoloVision reported that Udeon shot and killed a messenger from Imperial Admiral Jion Trynn, offering the rebels a chance to surrender. Admiral Trynn, as reported by IHV, had no choice but to bomb the city of Harazod from orbit in order to eliminate the threat of further violence. (SWJ3) Udine System an asteroid-filled system located near Keller's Void. (SWJ3) Udine, Willa this woman served as the Captain of the Bravado III, patrolling the Kathol Republic shortly after the Battle of Endor. When her ship was damaged after being attacked , the closest ship to her position was the FarStar, which she believed to be the Lance of Endor. She believed that the New Republic was a brutal and imperialsitic regime, because of the attacks from the Lance of Endor, and refused their help but kept talking until more ships from the Kathol Republic could arrive and provide assitance. (KO) Udo this was a common component used to create the names given to Cerean males. In general, male Cereans given an individual name, which is added to the names of their father and grandfather.

(DRO) Uffel this moon was the second satellite in orbir around Genarius, in the Cularin System. During the Old Republic, a pair of Twi'leks tried to scout the planet's resources, but were overcome by the poisonous gases in its atmosphere. However, their two droids kept on running, and eventually built several cities on the moon. Under the guidance of QS-2D, with the help of Riboga the Hutt, Uffel became known for its manufacture of specialty droids. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Uffel found itself under attack by the alien invaders. Only the timely intervention of the surviving members of the Iron Knights saved the planet from subjugation. (LFC, OWS) Ufflor this was a position of political power among the Ugnaughts, with each ufflor serving on the Terend Council. (GG2) Ugarte this money-hungry Ugnaught was a native of Cloud City, and was one of the multitude of information gatherers working on the outpost during the Galactic Civil War. (GG2) Ugboat based on the floating facility known as the Ugnaught Surface, this was the largest manufacturer of Ugnaught floatboats during the early years of the New Republic. King Ozz was rumored to have secretly acquired a majority ownership of Ugboat, although no proof was ever found. This rumor was tied to Ugboat's jump in profits after Ozz declared that any blood-fued between Ugnaughts anywhere on Bespin had to take place on the Ugnaught Surface. (PH) Ugbuz Ugbuz was the alpha male of the Gamorrean Gakfedd tribe on Pzob, until the Eye of Palpatine picked him up. He then became indoctrinated as a stormtrooper squad leader.

(CCG5) Ugly generic name given to any of the pieced-together fighters that are built by low-life techs in the Corellian Sector. Uglies are built from starship parts scavenged from any and all sources, and are built for firepower more than maneuverability. (AC) Ugly Truth this escape craft was maintain in the Coruscant residence of Hasville and Adray Terson, during the early years of the New Republic. It was placed within their dwelling in such a way that it could be easily entered, and an escape chute leading to the planet's surface allowed the craft to leave Coruscant on a moment's notice. Resembling a military landspeeder, the Ugly Truth was designed to sit on its drive section when not it use, pointing upward for swift takeoff. The craft was nearly appropriated by Viqi Shesh, who had obtained access to the Terson residence when Hasray Terson died at the hands of Deuna Ku. Unfortunately, she was unable to use the ship to escape her Yuuzhan Vong captors. Instead, Garik Loran and Bhindi Drayson took the ship for use as an escape craft, when Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade Skywalker cut off their mission to Coruscant. (EL2) Ugmush this female Gamorrean was the owner and captain of the Zicreex.

She preferred to have the translator speak Basic in the voice of Amber Jevanche, giving Ugmush a pleasing voice. (POT, SWJ14) Ugmush this was a common male name among the Gamorrean people. Like most Gamorrean names, it was essentially gibberish that indicated what a Gamorrean would do if you made him angry. (GCG) Ugnaught this was the native language of the Ugnaughts. (ANT) Ugnaught a race of small, piglike creatures known for their mechanical abilities, the ugnaughts are native to the planet Gentes. There, the ugnaughts grew to become strong, efficient creatures, able to withstand a great deal of discomfort. However, the planet's hostile environment forces them to move elsewhere. Many tribes of ugnaughts were also stolen and sold or leased as slaves. One of the nearest planets to Gentes is Bespin, where they have become an integral part of the society on Cloud City. Ecclessis Figg purchased three tribes of ugnaughts and gave them the daunting task of building Cloud City. If they could do this, Figg agreed to give them their freedom and a place to live in the floating city. Of course, the ugnaughts agreed, and they worked extra hard to make Cloud City a wonderful place to live. They chose for themselves a series of lower city levels, creating burrows and tunnels to mimic the environs of their homeworld. The ugnaughts are great storytellers, and much of their history is collected and passed on in long tales. When the Empire took control of the station, the ugnaughts were left behind. They resented the Imperial presence on the station, and began rebelling against it. They caused all sorts of damage, and even tried to incapacitate Lobot so that the Empire couldn't use him to interface with the city's central computer. As a last resort, the ugnaughts began planting bombs around the outpost, and planned to set them off when Lando returned to the city and repaired Lobot. Together, they disarmed the bombs and forced the Imperials off the outpost. The ugnaughts were once again returned to the free status they desired. The chief Ugnaught was portrayed by Jack Purvis in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. (ESB, JS, GG2, ISU, EGC) Ugnaught Mechanics Union this union was formed on Cloud City, to ensure fair and equitable treatment of Ugnaught mechanics who were working on the floating city during the decades leading up to the Battle of Naboo. The original charter of the union was developed by Boss Ugnor, in cooperation with Ecclessis Figg himself. Years after its formation, the Union moved its primary headquarters to Ugnorgrad, on the Ugnaught Surface. (BH, PH) Ugnaught Surface this was the name of the floating city envisioned by Boss Ugnor, and eventually stablished in orbit around the planet Bespin. Located a kilometer below Cloud City, the Ugnaught Surface was created from left-over materials used to create Ecclessis Figg's floating city. In fact, it was Figg himself who donated the materials, in thanks for the hard work of the Ugnaught population. It was used as a base from which Ugnaughts could mine the ores and minerals used to construct the Cloud City facility at Bespin. Once the city was completed, the Ugnaught Surface became something of a refuge for those Ugnaughts who no longer wanted to live on Cloud City, nor return to their homeworld of Gentes. It measured a square kilometer in surface area, and contained artificial landscapes filled with swamps, marshes, and jungles that were reminiscent of Gentes. The city of Ugnorgrad dominated the largest of four sections of the Surface, and was connected to the others by tunnel-like transport tubes. Its bouyancy was maintained by a collection of tibanna-gas-filled bladders, and its bowl-shaped structure allowed it to collect condensing moisture from Bespin's atmosphere, which could be used to feed the artificial landscapes. When Lando Calrissian took over as Baron-Administrator of Cloud City, he promised to double the wages of the Ugnaught miners, provided that any tibanna gas mining on the Surface was halted. (PH) Ugnaughts' Progress this sweeping holodocumentary was developed Ars Fivvle, and described the history of the Ugnaught tribes which were brought to Bespin to help build Cloud City. Drawing from moer than fifty years of footage from the newsfeed Action Tidings, Fivvle spun an award-winning tale of how the bllod, sweat, and tears of the Ugnaughts made Bespin that planet it had become. Although Ugnaughts' Progress was limited to the newsnets of Bespin for many years, the liberation of Cloud City allowed it to be picked up by the media of the New Republic. The popularity of the holodocumentary grew rapidly, and it was seen from one end of the galaxy to the other in just a few years. (PH) Ugnorgrad this was considered the capital of the Ungaught Surface facility, located in orbit around the planet Miser. Those Ugnaughts who retired from the workforce the built and maintained Bespin's Cloud City facility often retired to Ugnorgrad, rather than returning to Gentes, since they considered Bespin their home. They also believed that it was the Ugnaughts who made Bespin the tourist attraction that it became. Named for the legendary Boss Ugnor, Ugnorgrad was controlled by King Ozz during the early years of the New Republic. (PH) Ugnorgrad Performance Hall this was the main facility for Ugnaught-based music, drama, and dance performances, found in the city of Ugnorgrad on the Ugnaught Surface. (PH) Ugnorgrad Swampway this skimmer race course was created in the atmosphere of the planet Bespin, and was based out of the city of Ugnorgrad, on the Ugnaught Surface. King Ozz held an annual race along the Swampway, known as the Swampway 200, during the early years of the New Republic. (PH) Ugnor's Thumbs this was a mild expletive used by the Ugnaughts who lived and worked on Cloud City, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (PH) Ugor a race of intelligent, single-celled creatures who came from a splendid world of incredible natural resources found in the Paradise System. The short-sighted Ugors quickly consumed all that the planet could offer, and they turned the planet into a toxic garbage dump. The Ugors, rathering than perishing the garbage they had created, adapted to life in the pollution. They moved off the planet, and began taking apart the planet in their home system in an effort to obtain more and more natural resources. They move about by exuding a series of pseudopods from their bodies, or by encapsulating themselves in special environment suits. Each of the pseudopods has a specific task - communication, movement, et cetera. The brain of the Ugor is located in the center of their body, and is made up of a huge number of molecular structures similar to brain cells in most humanoids. While limited in their abilities, the molecules have a faster access time than normal brain cells. Also, since each molecule has a specific function, Ugor brains are also quite adaptable. They seem to worship garbage and junk, and have gone so far as to persuade the Empire to allow them first access to all Imperial garbage. They consider other scavengers, such as the Squibs, to be business rivals that need to be eliminated. The Ugors tried to stop the Squibs from procuring a gravity-well projector during the Galactic Civil War, a device which the Squibs had planned to loan to the Alliance for use in dragging the Elusive out of hyperspace. (GG4, SH) Ugor Battle Wagon this huge, doughnut-shaped warship was equipped with outdated autoblasters, pseudosonic beamers, and G-type rotolasers. While these weapons aren't very powerful in small numbers, the Ugors placed a multitude of them on each battle wagon. The combined firepower was impressive. The Ugors developed the battle wagon to attack and destroy Squib ships which jumped Ugor claims to salvage. (SH) Ugor Salvage Company this small waste-recovery corporation was founded by the Ugors, and was responsible for the manufacture of the Black Hole-class salvage dreadnaught. Like all such operations, they are loyal to the Holy Ugor Taxation Collection Agency. (GG4, SH) Ugorian Spore-gruel this is the preferred alcoholic beverage of the Ugor race. (SH) UH-478 this Republic Attack Gunship saw extensive duty during the Battle of Geonosis. (TCG1) U'Han Swinol this Bith was a musician who worked in the entertainment district of Coruscant during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. Unfortunately, U'Han lost his primary gig and was forced to take a high-interest loan from Groff Haug. When he couldn't afford to make his payments, U'Han tried to skip town, and Haug put out a bounty on his head. Jango Fett claimed the bounty shortly after the Battle of Naboo, during his search for Jervis Gloom. (BH) Uhanayih meaning "the within world" in the Yinchorri tongue, this was the name of one of the innermost planets in the Yinchorri System. It was associated with a variety of legends and myths of the spirit world, and was the site of the secret Yinchorri command center, from which they launched their attacks on the Jedi Knights a year before the Battle of Naboo. After the Jedi destroyed the base, the Yinchorri surrendered and stopped their attacks. (AOW) Uhl Doaba'I the name of this establishment means "peaceful place" in the Socorran tongue. It was considered the last vestige of civilization found within the city of Vakeyya before a traveler entered the open desert. The building which housed the Uhl Doaba'I was rumored to be over 2,000 years old, and it had been maintained by the Ibhaan'I shamen for many generations. A small group of shamen ran the establishment, and would put together an osma bag for a traveler who gave them a small donation of credits or food. (BSS) Uhl Eharl Khoehng this great, Old Corellian tragedy is generally regarded as one of the greatest in all the galaxy. It was first performed some 500 years before the Battle of Yavin. The title comes from the Old Corellian term, khoehng, which means king. The word eharl is a Socorran mythological term which refers to an elf or trickster. Thus, the translation of the title into Basic yields "The Trickster King." The story of the play begins with the death of a king and his handsome young son. It opens on a distant world, where the son must take the throne once occupied by his father. The son - known as the Edjian-Prince - decides to expand his father's holdings and orders much of the surrouding forest cut down. When the woodsmen fail to return, and no trees are felled, the Prince's subjects begin to whisper of uhl eharl khoehng, and the Edjian-Prince begins trying to contact him. He sends messengers into the forest with invitations, but none of them ever return. The people begin to rebel against the Edjian-Prince's follies, until he orders his soldiers to drive them all into the forest. No one, not the subjects or the soldiers, ever returns. The Edjian-Prince is left with just his aging hunt servant, and the prince then sends the old man into the forest, in a last-ditch effort to locate the trickster king. When the old man also fails to return, the Prince barricades himself within his castle walls, but uhl eharl khoehng was too smart for that. The trickster invaded the Prince's dreams and bade him to come into the forest, promising safe passage and a discussion of peace. The Prince awoke and travelled into the forest, hoping to restore his kingdom. However, uhl eharl khoehng tricked him, and although he was never hungry or thirsty, the Prince was forced to travel through an unending labyrinth of trees during a ten-year search for the trickster king. At one point, the spirit of the huntsman appeared to the Prince and told him that the trickster king had turned all the people of the kingdom into trees, unable to move or speak. The Prince was led to the edge of the forest, where he encountered the Eharl Khoehng for himself. The Prince was given a choice - to worship the Eharl Khoehng and have his kingdom returned, or die. The Edjian-Prince went mad, running back into the forest and setting fire to the trees, claiming that the burned-out trees and blackened soil were "...the only kingdom I deserve to rule, and the only kingdom that the Eharl Khoehng can claim." He then submitted himself to the Eharl Khoehng and mutters the famous last line, "Long ... live ... the king." (SWJ8) Uhltenden this planet is surrounded by a ring of debris from a multitude of starships. It has a toxic atmopshere, and has no natural life. (SLS) Uhowwa this name was common among Ithorian females. Although such names do not generally have meaning, Ithorians who studied their race's history learned that the name meant "joy" - or, more literally, "laughing dancer". (GCG) Uhu an Corvette group destroyed by the Empire during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE) Uhur'qah this city was the industrial capital of the planet Af'El.

However, Ujaa wasn't much of a musician, and he was eventually fired and replaced by Loopa. (KOTOR) Ujii this Bith and his brother, Ujaa, joined the band known as the Twisted Rancor Trio just after Ujaa, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. (KOTOR) Ujin Voli this Gotal crimelord formed the Antar Band and began preying upon the ships which followed the Sisar Run during the Galactic Civil War. Voli and his Band were one of the largest rivals to the Nalroni Sprax and his Black Sun operatives, after a proposed deal between them fell through. Since then, Voli has surrounded himself with the most vicious of associates, in an effort to keep Sprax at bay while hounding his every move. Voli's right eye was badly injured during a run-in with Black Sun agents, and was useless for seeing. He and his lackeys once captured Kalend Thora, shortly after she recovered the only copy of the Barani List from Limna Yith. He held her in his stronghold, deep inside Temptation Canyon on Sriluur, until she was rescued by mercenaries sent by Mal Biron. Ujin Voli fled to Yen-2 in an effort to recover the decryption sequence and unlock the List. However, the mercenaries followed him to Yen-2 and recovered the List before Voli could decipher it. Voli himself was shot down and killed by Guri, who had come to Yen-2 to recover Mal Biron's mercenaries. (SSR) Ukanis this is either a planet or a tribe of humans. (TT) Ukass this man was an Imperial Governor during the early years of the New Republic. (GG11) Ukert this Ugnaught smuggler maintained a small criminal empire on the planet Kothlis. The leader of the Ubskai clan, he was a rival of Maxeena Sov'lya, although they often performed work for each other. Ukert also owned the Reclamations Services, Incorporated smelting and recycling operation on Kothlis. Unknown to most beings, Ukert served as a go-between for the Alliance, obtainin weapons from the Botha Ammunitions Corporation and hiding them in recycling bins for pick-up by Alliance agents. (PSG) Ukiah this being was one of the four members of the gang known as the Slams, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Ukiah served as the group's expert on weapons and defense systems at the time. Several years before the Battle of Geonosis, Ferus Olin impersonated Ukiah in an effort to infiltrate the planet Romin and located Jenna Zan Arbor. Slam and his gang had gone underground, but suddenly turned up on Romin at the same time as Ferus and the Jedi. (JQ8) Ukian the primary race native to the planet Ukio, Ukians had a strong fear of the unknown. Rumors tended to get them overly excited, and sudden or unexpected events left them rattled. They were a species of hairless humanoids, with green skin and thin, red eyes. Many beings thought that they appeared to have been assembled incorrectly, being gangly and awkard when they moved about. Despite their appearance, the Ukians were very strong. They were known for their skills in agriulture. (TLC, LCSB) Ukian Farming Bureau this body, formed as part of the Ukian government, oversaw all the farming activities performed on the planet Ukio.

Each Overliege serves a term of ten years, and the most productive Ukian of each period is offered the position to be the next Overliege. (LCSB) Ukio a major agricultural center for the New Republic, Ukio was the primary planet in the Ukian system. In the year leading up to the Clone Wars, Ukio and the entire Abrion Sector seceded from the Old Republic, providing the Separatists with a source of foodstuffs and giving them a measure of self-suficiency. Many years leater, it was attacked by Grand Admiral Thrawn and forced to surrender before being recaptured by the New Republic. It was attacked by the Star Destroyers Chimaera and Stormhawk just prior to Thrawn's attack on Coruscant. A large planet, Ukio has a mild climate and minimal seasonal changes. In centuries past, the planet was covered with lush plains, but modern farming techniques have turned it into a well-managed gridwork of fields and fallow. Each of the three major continents on the planet are strictly maintained, and crop rotation procedures are a matter of Ukian law. (TLC, LCSB, HNN5) Ukla-na vissa crai! this was a lament used by the Yuuzhan Vong to call for the assistance of Yun-Yammka, the Slayer. (FH1) Ukon Eyste this male Gran was part of the large contingent that lived on the planet Malastare during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo.

(UANT) Ulaha Kore this female Bith was studying the Jedi way on Yavin 4, during the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. A musician of exquisite skill, Ulaha was also a gifted tactical analyst who aided in the Jedi's attempts to understand the tactics of the alien invaders. Ulaha was named to the strike team which was sent to Myrkr to locate and destroy the queen voxyn, but was badly injured during their "capture" when a Yuuzhan Vong warrior stabbed her in the back with a coufee. Her injury wasn't severe, but the blade punctured her lung and there was little medical attention her fellow Jedi could provide during their transport to Myrkr. Upon reaching Myrkr, Ulaha took the Exquisite Death and tried to escape the Yuuzhan Vong warships in orbit around the planet. Her escape was assisted by YVH 2-1S, which detonated a huge explosive in space, destroying itself in order to distract the alien warships. Unfortunately, the Exquisite Death was captured by Yuuzhan Vong picket ships. Ulaha Kore caused the ship to self-destruct, in an effort to take out as many Yuuzhan Vong ships as possible. She died in the explosion. (JE, BP, SBS) Ulan Bight this was the deepest location on the planet Goroth Prime, located in the southern portion of the Ul'Husk Ocean. It was over 1,300 meters deep.

(SWJ14, FTD) Ulbasca this was the closest moon orbiting the planet Genarius. Its orbit was unusual in that it was always in the light of the Cularin System's suns, while the dark side of the planet was lit by the reflection of Genarius. Thus, Ulbasca's surface never experienced a true "night." The atmosphere of Ulbasca was based on oxygen, but traces of poisonous gases make the air unbreathable. Nevertheless, several species of reptiles existed on Ulbasca, feeding on sulfurous plants. These reptiles resemble short-legged snakes, and could grow to be forty meters in length. (LFC) Ulbert this Corellian thug was a student of an ancient Force-sensitive who tended to twist the Jedi Code to his own designs. Like his fellow students Kym and Renthor, Ulbert had no connection to the Force, but adhered loyally to his teacher's twisted version of the Code. His favorite tenet was "Peace through pieces," which was supported by the law "There is not motion, there is only pieces." Ulbert and his buddies lived aboard the Mynock 7 Space Station, and often harrassed the patrons of the Farrimmer Café. (SWJ11) Ulcane, Meres this man joined the Imperial Academy at the age of 17, not because he was smart or strong but because of an influential uncle within the military. After barely graduating, he was assigned to a demolitions squad which ordered into battle behind the lines in Alliance territory. He suspected that his commanding officers detested him because he got into the military because of his uncle, and that they were trying to kill him off. Seeing that he needed to get a quick promotion in order to survive in the military, Ulcane locked his entire team in a warehouse owned by the Alliance and destroyed it. Not only did he receive commendations for taking out a strategic enemy site, he was awarded for his bravery in surviving the assault when the rest of his team didn't. Ulcane managed to make several more upward movements within the military, although each promotion was accompanied by strange or unusual circumstances. He became a student of aline cultures during this time, primarily because he was treated as an outsider by his peers. Shortly after the Battle of Endor, Captain Ulcane escaped a mutiny aboard his own ship and fled to the Outer Rim Territories. There, he met another Imperial officer, and together they formed the Kaarenth Dissension. It was their goal to incite all the alien races of the Outer Rim against the fledgling New Republic. When he was discovered by Republic agents on Betha II, Ulcane fled to the Spawn Nebula, where the Kaarenth Dissesion had been hoarding starships for an assault on the New Republic. The agents tracked Ulcane to the nebula, where they discovered the fleet and its supporting space station. The agents managed to destroy the station and much of the fleet, and it was believed that Ulcane died aboard the station. (SWJ8) Ulda Frav Qrrl Toq first encountered the Jedi Knights on this planet, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. (TOJC) Uldas this was one of the many Ansionian deities. (APS) Uldyr this word came from either the Old Corellian or Socorran dialects, and was used by the nomadic natives of Socorro to denote the rainy season experienced each year on the planet. During the period of uldyr, which lasted only two to three weeks, the winter's hard freeze snapped, and large amounts of moisture were quickly evaporated into the atmosphere. This led to torrential downpours, which turned the volcanic-ash deserts into a dangerous series of mudpits. (BSS) ULF see Upland Liberation Front (SHPT) Ulglick this man, a native of Andasala, claimed to be able to obtain any item a being could desire, with no questions asked. (GG11) Ulgo an elderly Dulok living in a cave near the Canyons of Mist on Endor. He had a taste for eating the lanternbirds native to the planet.

Uliar later served as one of the Directors of the Managing Council, charged with making all the policy decisions relating to the survivors of the Outbound Flight Project. In this position, Uliar was effectively the leader of the entire group of survivors during the years leading up to the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. When a Chiss-led group of beings arrived at the location of Outbound Flight and was detained by Jorad Pressor, Uliar and his Councilors were somewhat angry that they had not come directly to him. This anger was added to the already-present hatred he felt toward the Jedi Knights, for their lack of action in trying to protect the Outbound Flight Project and its thousands of non-Jedi. Uliar also didn't like the fact that Bearsh and his companions were in group, although he failed to put his finger on what was wrong until it was nearly too late. After Bearsh and his companions trapped Uliar, Dean Jinzler, and Aristocra Formbi, Uliar realized that Bearsh was not a Geroon, as he claimed. Instead, Uliar recognized that Bearsh was actually a Vagaari. After the Vagaari threat was eliminated, Uliar and his fellow survivors grudgingly agreed to accompany the Outbound Flight Colony to Nirauan, staying as far away from the New Republic as they could. (SQ) Ulicia this planet was located in the Corporate Sector of the galaxy. Fiolla barely escaped from this planet after a mission went bad, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. (OWS) Ulicx Vinaq this Devaronian merchant won a huge amount of credits from Imperial Governor Desh during a sakresh match. In retaliation, Desh stashed a crate of Imperial weapons on Vinaq'a ship, then issued a warrant for Vinaq's arrest. Desh claimed that Vinaq had stolen the weapons from his own armory. A 2,000-credit bounty, plus salvage rights to Vinaq's ship, was placed on his head. Vinaq was recognizable because of the multitude of facial piercings he sported. (GG10) Ulig Abaha Limited this was a small starship manufacturer based on the Corporate Sector. (CSA, PP) Ulikuo this was a valuable gemstone found only on the planet Kip.

(PSPG) Uliss, Tam this Corellian man was a noted industrialist and corporate executive who made a fortune on Ansion during the years following the Battle of Naboo. He was also an opportunist, and when he was approached by Shu Mai to help fund the growing movement of certain planets to secede from the Old Republic, Uliss saw an opportunity to create a separate corporate empire of his own. Uliss, like many Ansion businessbeings, was frustrated and upset with the continual revisions which came from Coruscant to the laws and regulations of the Republic. He agreed to help Shu Mai in her efforts to bring about the secession of Ansion from the Republic, hoping that the Malarians and Keitumites would follow shortly afterward, in accordance with the alliances with Ansion, therby causing a chain reaction of secession. However, when Ansion agreed to remain part of the Republic, Uliss grew impatient and edgy. He demanded immediate action from Shu Mai, who saw Ansion's loss as just a bump in the road to full secession. When Uliss pressed harder, Shu Mai decided that his usefulness had come to an end. On a walkway between the Bror Towers on Coruscant, Shu Mai trapped Uliss in a small force field, then destroyed the supports for the walkway. Uliss fell to his death, the victim of an apparent structural failure. (APS) Ulizra this was the ancient Nazzari religion, enforced by the government, which had three basic tenets: first, the preservation of the group over the individual; second, the segregation of the Nazzar from the remainder of the galaxy; and third, the elimination of any other form of religion or cult which undermined the beliefs of the Ulizra. The number 14 played a large role in the Ulizra, as there were 14 unique sects of the religion, all led by a theocratic king. The Great Structure, the basic guidelines of the Ulizra religion, had 14 vens, each indicating a different level of religious and academic achievement.

Ulqib was one of the original non-voting contributing sponsors of the Corporate Sector Authority. (CSA, GFT, AEG) Ulta Center this luxurious conference center was located on Rondai-2, during the last decades of the Old Republic. Because many of the galaxy's wealthiest and most influential beings held conferences and meetings at the Ulta Center, its owners provided some of the galaxy's most sophisticated security systems to ensure its guests were safe and free to move about. Located in the city of Dal, the Ulta Center boasted its own private landing pads, and no being was allowed to enter the Center unless they were already pre-screened and part of a known party. Reservations were absolutely required, and guests from different parties were kept separated to esnure their privacy and security. The Ulta Center was the site of a conference of galactic leaders some seven years before the Battle of Naboo. Passel Argente discretely hired Magus and a team of bounty hunters to assassinate the leaders, but their plans were thwarted by a group of Jedi Knights led by Qui-Gon Jinn and Adi Gallia. (SOJ) Ultaar this was one of many planets on which the Alliance maintained a base during the era between the Battles of Yavin and Hoth. Most of the planet's semi-tropical landmasses were set aside for agriculture, with much of its industry based on the export of luxuriously-scented flowers and plants. Darth Vader emerged from hiding on this planet, following the Battle of Yavin, hoping to gather information about the pilot who destroyed the first Death Star. Unfortunately for the Alliance team on Ultaar and for Vader himself, Valance the Hunter discovered the base first. He destroyed everything he found, leaving nothing behind in his own search for Luke Skywalker. (OWS, MC21) Ulte, Benoni this man was considered "Socorro's Ambassador" at the Soco-Jarel Spaceport on Socorro during the Galactic Civil War.

The Alliance managed to escape from the Graveyard with the Another Chance before the Imperial ship could disable it. (GA) Ultima-pearl a rare stone created in the oceans of Calamari. Cilghal used one as the focusing gem in her lightsaber. (L) Ultimate Instrument of Music another name for the Mindharp. (LCM) Ultimo Vista this converted Giga-class transport ship was produced many decades before the Battle of Geonosis. Original built as a leisure cruise ship, the Ultimo Vista ended up on Coruscant as a self-contained environment that moved across the face of Galactic City. The ovoid ship, distinguished by its black armor plating and hammerhead-shaped bridge, allowed its residents to live their entire lives without ever having to set foot on Coruscant's surface. This also allowed the thousands of residents to breathe fresh - albeit scrubbed and refined - air and drink fresh - albeit it recycled and purified - water. The Ultimo Vista was an exceptionally slow-moving vessel, and was nearly hit by Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi during their attempt to chase down Zam Wesell shortly before the Battle of Geonosis. (IWE2) Ultrachrome this incredibly-dense metal was used in the production of vibroshields and other forms of blades, since it could withstand high temperatures and maintain a razor-sharp edge despite heard usage. When connected to a power supply, ultrachrome became a form of superconductor, absorbing energy and shunting it aside.

(MC35) Ultra-Light Assault Vehicle (ULAV) these small, unimposing speeders were used by the Empire for a short period early in the New Order, until it was deemed that they weren't instilling fear in their opponents. Originally produced by Sienar Fleet Systems, the seven-meter-long ULAV were fast and maneuverable, but lacked heavy armor plating. The Empire decommissioned them in favor of walkers, and stored them for later use. The Alliance, in raiding Imperial outposts, confiscated a great number of these ULAVs, and uses them throughout the galaxy.

Ulu Ulix was assigned to guard young Boba Fett and the other orphans aboard the Candaserri, after they were rescued from Count Dooku's lair on Raxus Prime. Years later, as the Clone Wars drew closer to an end, Glynn-Beti and Ulix were dispatched to Xagobah to lead the forces that were laying siege to Wat Tambor's hidden fortress. Because the fortress - known as the Mazariyan Citadel - and much of the surrounding plantlife had been geneticalky altered by Tambor to serve as guardians, the clone troopers under her direction were unable to get close to the fortress. Tambot, meanwhile, continued to send droid armies into battle, relying on sheer numbers to overwhelm the Republic's forces. Ulu tried to singlehandedly penetrate the fortress by forcing Tambor's ramship to plunge into it, but his swoop was shot down before he could complete the task. Instead of falling to his death, however, Ulu Ulux found himself in the arms of Boba Fett, who had traveled to Xagobah to capture Wat Tambor for Jabba the Hutt. Ulu Ulix survived the crash, and returned to his Master's side to help with the defeat of the Separatists on Xagobah.

Umbarans were characterized by their pale, bluish skin and white-pigmented eyes. These beings were capable of seeing into the ultraviolet spectra of light, but had little vision in the normal, visible spectrum. In fact, an Umbaran could be momentarily blinded by a bright flash of normal light. It has been said that Umbarans had the ability to subtly influence and control other beings, and it was known that many Umbarans used their strange abilities in identifying hidden Jedi during Emperor Palpatine's Jedi Purge. Because a great many Umbarans used their influence to secure positions of power within the government of Emperor Palpatine, as a people they feared that some form of retaliation might occur when Palpatine was killed at the Battle of Endor.

Many bands refused, citing that their drum-playing clashed artistically. In the aftermath of Jabba's death near the Pit of Carkoon, Umpass-stay was temporarily free, and tried to reach Mos Eisley with Ak-Rev.

The restaurant itself was created on an old Ubrikkian transport barge, which was equipped with a tractor beam projector that allowed Nyyv to sidle to a newly arrived ship and offer its crew a hearty meal.

Much of the Undercity was set aside for criminal activities, and black-market moneychangers were especially plentiful, garnering a profit from those beings who didn't want to deal with the Aargau banking authorities. (BF3) Undercity this was one of the most dangerous sections of the planet Taris, during the Sith War some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. Located beneath the Lower City, the Undercity was the domain of the rakghouls. (KOTOR) Underdwellers this was the term used to describe those beings who were forced to live below the surface of the planet Coruscant, during the early years of the New Republic.

Some ten years later, while in charge of the training of Barriss Offee, Luminara accompanied Obi-Wan and his Padawan, Anakin Skywalker, to the planet Ansion, where they were able to form a alliance between the city dwellers and the nomads of the plains, averting the secession of Ansion from the Republic. Their efforts nearly went for naught, as the Jedi were almost defeated at the Battle of Geonosis. Both Unduli and her Padawan fought bravely, but were badly outnumbered by the droid armies of the Separatists. Only the arrival of Master Yoda and the clone troopers of the Army of the Republic saved the day. As the Clone Wars raged across the galaxy, Master Unduli became known as one of the Jedi Order's most gifted negotiators. She traveled to many different worlds - sometimes, in the company of Governor Willhuf Tarkin, who represented the Old Republic - to negotiate with the Separatist leaders. In the wake of the First Battle of Coruscant, Master Unduli was dispatched to Kashyyyk with the task force led by Jedi Master Yoda. However, when Darth Sidious revealed his true nature and killed Mace Windu, he sent out communications to the various clone commanders to execute Order 66.

Xanatos was killed in battle, and Telos was freed from industrial destruction. (DOR) Unifying Force this was the facet of The Force which focused on the future and its bearing on a Jedi's place in the present. Those Jedi who studied the Unifying Force understood that the future was constantly in motion, but sought to understand this motion and develop an understanding of their place within achieving the highest of ideals. This facet complimented the Living Force, which connected a Jedi Knight to the living beings which surrounded him, and the Physical Force, which allowed a Jedi to use the Force to manipulate objects around him. It was this aspect of the Force that was perhaps the least understood of the three, a fact that was all the more obvious after the Jedi Purge. As Luke Skywalker set out to rebuild the Jedi Knights after the Battle of Endor, his own training led him to concentrate on the Living Force and Physical Force. It wasn't until the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, and the Fosh Jedi Vergere returned from her self-imposed exile among them, that Luke began to consider what the Unifying Force meant to the new Jedi Knights.

By the time of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, the Unknown Regions accounted for just fifteen percent of the galaxy, yet much of it remained unexplored by the New Republic. The primary reason for this was the fact that the Chiss controlled most of the border between the Unknown Regions and the rest of the galaxy.

With a carefully placed tip to the Republic's Intelligence agency, they managed to achieve their goal of bringing Windu back to Haruun Kal. What Master Windu discovered, though, was that the ULF was barely clinging to its own existence, reduced to staging raids on Balawai outposts just to acquire food and medical supplies.

When Mace Windu finally met up with Depa Billaba, she revealed that the ULF was just a name she had created to help garner attention for the plight of the Korunnai. The illusion of the ULF was meant to force the Balawai militia to expend huge amounts of resources trying to pin down leaders and resources, looking for patterns they believed any organized resistance would employ.

(GMS) Urothko this legendary young Wookiee was a brave warrior who cared little for the cares of others. Many of his peers dared him to travel to the lowest levels of Kashyyyk's forest, claiming that he was a coward if he declined.

Luckily for Urothko, the elder Stalpaac intervened. Stalpaac shot the spirit with a bowcaster quarrel, then the two Wookiees launched an attack on the spirirt. Graaa'shad quickly retreated and fled, screaming that one day it would get revenge.

The skins of the tent were often covered during seasonal encampments with a hardener created from bantha spittle, adding strength and rigidity against Tatooine's sandstorms. (VD2) Uru this Outer Rim planet was the homeworld of the Oni race. (MJH) Urukaab this Mon Calamari manufacturer developed the Mon Calamari Utility Sub and other submersible vehicles. (JASB, ROE) Urun this was one of the more common names given to Cragmoloid individuals. (UANT) Urur this Tusken Raider was the younger sibling of Ur, but was not as skilled in battle as Ur. Thus, Urur was often left behind during raids, ostensibly to protect the clan. (JKG) Ururur this Tusken Raider was the leader of his tribe, during the height of the New Order. (JKG3) Urusai this reptavian scavenger was native to the planet Tatooine. They had unregulated appetites, and often fed on carrion until they became engorged and unable to fly. The females of the species had two wings, located over their four stout legs. The forelegs of the males were actually a second set of wings, useless for flying but designed for use in mating displays. The thick tail of the urusai was used to provide balance during flight, and could also be used as a fifth "leg." A urusai could lift its body up on the tail, using the wide fan at the base of the tail to provide footing while muscles hold up the body. Each wing was studded with claws, which the urusai used to cling to walls and cliffs while climbing to their nests. Their skulls were dominated by red eyes and a snaggletoothed beak, and a fan-shaped comb sprouted behind their heads to help disperse body heat. During the mating period, the average female will lay up to three eggs. The first urusai to hatch would then push the unhatched eggs out of the nest, ensuring its own survival. Adult urusai developed a symbiotic relationship with the Sarlacc which was found in the Pit of Carkoon, cleaning the teeth and tentacles of the Sarlacc in return for the bits of food they obtained in the process. (WSW, TG) Uruun Cloth this form of living cloth was created by the Yuuzhan Vong as a kind of bandage. When placed on an individual's flesh, uruun cloth constricted slightly, forming a tight seal around a wound. Uruun cloth was also used to blind or gag and individual, with the uruun cloth placed over the eyes or mouth. (FP) Urval'starn this city was located on the western continent of the planet Bothawui. (SPG) ur-Yuuzhan Vong this was a term used to describe the proto-historic race from which the Yuuzhan Vong evolved. These early beings were completely and utterly connected to the Force, living in symbiosis with each other and the species as a whole. When the ur-Yuuzhan Vong became too proud of their individual accomplishments, they were suddenly cut off from the Force, and turned to violence. Modern Yuuzhan Vong religion described this in terms of their pantheon of gods, primarily Yun-Yuuzhan, who was believed to have been the creator of the Yuuzhan Vong race. It was the gods, not the Force, which created the Yuuzhan Vong. They were cut off from the Force because of their desire to escalate themselves, but their religion became twisted around so that they believed the only way to return to the gods was to escalate themselves. In this way, the modern Yuuzhan Vong drove themselves further and further from reconnecting with the Force. (UF) Urzan Krag this Aqualish bounty hunter was one of many who answered Asajj Ventress' call to hunt down members of the Jedi Order during the height of the Clone Wars. Like many experienced hunters, Krag was not happy with the fact that the bounties issues by Ventress skirted the normal rules of the Old Republic, opening the hunt to any being who wished to call him- or herself a bounty hunter. As the war ground on, Urzan Krag decided to stick with more mainstream criminal activities, and went to work for Jabba the Hutt. Urzan Krag became quite angry when Jabba refused to allow his rank-and-file bounty hunters to take on the more lucartive jobs, especially when Jabba ended up giving them to a thirteen-year-old Boba Fett. He tried to eliminate Boba Fett by chasing him down with his modified airspeeder, which had a limited form of cloaking device. Boba, however, managed to outwit the Aqualish and shot his speeder from the sky. Urzan Krag died in the explosion. (SWI73, BF5) Usahn L'sehl this was the name of a noted Sluissi individual. (UANT) Uscru Boulevard this was the primary thoroughfare that connected the various locations found within the Uscru District, which was located on the planet Coruscant. During the final decades of the Old Republic, Uscru Boulevard was a brightly-lit freeway that was usually jammed with traffic. (LEV) Uscru District this was one of the most up-scale districts of the planet Coruscant, located near the Senate Rotunda during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Many of the Old Republic's Senators made their homes in this district, preferring to be as close as possible to the Rotunda. (HNN5) Usean II this planet was the primary world in the Usean System, and was covered with temperate forests and mountains. (TBSB) Useani Camnzin this fictional creature was created by Wilek Nereus. Nereus had collected the unusual, scissoring teeth of the lrashtash, but wanted to make their possession much more memorable in the stories he told to his Imperial guests. He created the camnzin as a predator which used the teeth to slice its prey in half. (TBSB) Ush the meaning of this archaic Zabrak surname was lost over time. It was believed to have been a variant of Osh. (GCG) Ushk Choka this Yuuzhan Vong warrior was dispatched to the planet Zonama Sekot, after Nom Anor was able to locate the living world and relay its location to Supreme Overlord Shimrra. Ushk Choka's small force make a swift journey to the planet in the transport ship Red Qurang, hoping to recover the former Executor and return with news of Zonama Sekot's destruction. After recovering Nom Anor, Ushk Choka and the Red Qurang were briefly pursued by Mara Jade Skywalker and the Jade Shadow, but the smaller ship was forced to break off pursuit. Nom Anor believed that they were free, but an Imperial frigate that had accompanied the Jedi to Zonama Sekot took up the pursuit. Ushk Choka could neither flee nor fight, much to Nom Anor's dismay. Only the sudden disappearance of Zonama Sekot into hyperspace - dragging the other ships with it - allowed the Yuuzhan Vong to escape. (FP) Ushka Et this female Devaronian served as the lead singer for the band Distraction, during the early years of the New Order. She was easily distinguished from other female Devaronians by her face, half of which was tattooed to make her face appear as if it had been in a horrible accident. While not self-conscious about her body art, Ushka often turned the clear side of her face toward others, so as not to draw undo attention to the tattoos. During the preparations for a concert aboard the Sleemo Poya Jeedai, Ushka Et was kidnapped by Niklas Cories - posing as badn assistant Aphus Polix - and hidden away on another ship. Cories then took her place on stage, in an effort to murder Aquella Firth. (WOA28) Us-hrok this was the Yuuzhan Vong name for a series of strange hand gestures, made in front of an individual's face, which represented indebtedness and loyalty to another who provided assistance. (FH3) Usirine Street this was a major thoroughfare located in Eusebus, on the planet Euceron. (JQ3) Usk this is the twenty-first symbol in the Aurebesh script, and represents the Basic letter "u".

Uskgarv allowed them to go free when he realized they were on board, in exchange for favors Mak had once done for him. (SWJ8) Uso Yso this immense creature was a swoop seller, working in Euceron City during the years following the Battle of Naboo. Standing well over three meters in height, with two beating hearts and having fifteen-fingered hands as big as bantha haunches, Uso Yso was intimidating to say the least. This helped him greatly, for the swoop dealership was a front for the gambling agency he ran from the back office. When the Galactic Games came to Euceron, some six years after the Battle of Naboo, Uso Yso was known as one of the most "trustworthy" of the bookies who were taking illegal bets on the sporting events. (JQ3) Usos Cluster this medal, awarded by the Alliance, signified extreme valor in battle. (SWJ4) Uspeq this creature was native to the Yuuzhan Vong homeworld, and was bred for its incredible sense of smell. They were used during hunts, to help seek out prey. (EVC) Ussar Vlee this was one of the three ruetsavii sent to chronicle and criticize the life of Ooryl Qrygg. (BW) Ussor this Ganathan man held the rank of Captain, and was the commander of the Robida Colossus during the early years of the New Republic.

(UANT) Ustu one of Nichos Marr's childhood companions. Ustu was a Ho'Din. Together, they searched for Plett's Well, regardles of the warnings about the kretch. (COJ) Ut planet in the Hapan System known for its singers. (CPL) Uta a Hutt crimelord active under the New Republic, he was most known for his trafficking of military artifacts from the Galactic Civil War. He was arrested and charged with violating the Historical Battle Site Preservation Act. (BTS) Uta this Huttese word translated roughly into Basic as "if." (E1A14) Utai this race of diminutive humanoids was native to the tunnels and caverns of the planet Utapau. Because of their size, and because of their short lifespan, the Utai were often referred to as Shorts. Although the Utai made up some seventy percent of the population on Utapau, they had been relegated to the labor classes by the taller Pau'ans. The eyes of the Utai were located on short stalks, and provided the Utai with exceptional vision in the dark, underground environments they lived in. Many Utai were employed as varactyl wranglers, despite their short stature, because of their innate ability to work with the creatures. In contrast to the Pau'ans, the Utai preferred to eat cooked meat. Interestingly enough, Utai preferred the sunlight to the darkness in which they lived. (VD3, E3N) Utanode this bio-engineered material was used by the Gungans to support the bubble buildings they constructed in the oceans of Naboo. Each utanode arm contained a projection unit, which worked together to create the hydrostatic bubble buildings. (E1A9, IWE1) Utapau Jedi scholars believed that this mythic planet might have been the birthplace of the Jedi Order, millennia before the Battle of Yavin. Other possibilities included Ondus and Had Abbadon. What was know for sure was that the planet was the homeworld of the Utai and Pau'an races of humanoids. Much of the planet's surface was dominated by immense sinkholes, in which the Utapauans built their elegant cities. These sinkholes were caused by the porous nature of the planet's sandstone crust, which over time drew all surface water belowground. Thus, enture oceans were formed underground. The continual movement of water eroded the porous rock, causing large sections of ground to sink. With the lack of water on the surface, weather patterns changed, and intense hyperwinds began to scour the surface, levelling mountains and leaving behind a featureless flatlands. However, these winds also produced an unexpected benefit: the power of the wind could be harvested with huge windmills, providing limitless supplies of energy. The Utapauns' ecomony was based primarily on the sale of excess power. Secondary income came from off-world mining operations that tapped into the underground ocean for the trace elements found in the water. During the height of the Clone Wars, Utapau remained unallied to either the Old Republic of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and lacked any sort of strategic value. However, Utapau was eventually subjugated by General Grievous, who transported the leaders of the Council of Separatists to the planet for safekeeping, just prior to the Battle of Coruscant. (PJSB, OWS, ROF, LEV, VD3, E3N) Utapau Skyforce this was the main planetary defense force established by the Utapauns, during the Clone Wars. Made up primarily of Porax-38 starfighters and a few Dreadnaughts, the Utapau Skyforce was no match for the Confederacy of Independent Systems. (X3) Utapaun this was the term used to collectively describe the Utai and Pau'an races, which were native to the planet Utapau. Note that the novelization of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith indicates that the term Utapaun referred to the Pau'an race. (VD3, E3N) Utare this was one of the largest cities found on the planet Andara. (JQ5) Utchakkaloch this Wookiee was Dewlanna's son. Known as Chakk to his friends, this dark brown Wookiee met Han Solo at Chewbacca's wedding to Mallatobuk. When Chakk discovered that Han had known Dewlanna, he asked Han to tell him everything about how she died. Han told him of the way Dewlanna died saving his life, and the two became quick friends and "brothers." Chakk was distantly related to Chewbacca, through a second cousin three times removed who emigrated to Rwookrrorro and married Chewie's great-aunt's niece. (RD) Uteen this eel-like alien race lacked hands, and used droids to perform manual labor as well as give hand signals and sign language. They were members of the New Republic. (TNR) Uth Sulrowe this Mon Calamari was a well known scholar, and had a deep knowledge of galactic art. Uth was employed by Pret Swain, and worked at the Swain Import/Export Emporium on Socorro. Dressed in flowing robes, she was an impeccable hostess as well as a good sense of business. She was also a weapons expert, which helped her deal with the Emporium's more "discriminating" patrons. (BSS) Uthan, Ovolot Qail this respected scientist and researcher was hired by Count Dooku and the Confederacy of Independent Systems to develop nanoviruses that could be used as weapons during the Clone Wars. Her first discovery was a nanovirus that could be altered to act solely on the clone troopers being created for the Grand Army of the Republic. This discovery led to a great deal of funding, and Uthan was transported to Qiilura to continue her work. On Qiilura, she was supported and protected by Ghez Hokan, and she was able to establish a facility that allowed her to work in private. The primary problem with the development of the nanovirus was creating something that would attack only clone troopers, which were essentially Mandalorians, which differed very little from baseline human stock. Thus, the unrefined nanovirus was capable of killing indiscriminately. She had nearly uncovered a way to target the clones when her operation on Qiilura was discovered by the Old Republic. When Jedi Master Kast Fulier was killed trying to locate her, the Republic dispatched a squad of clone commandos to locate her. With the help of Master Fulier's Padawan, Etain Tur-Mukan, the commandos were able to infiltrate Hokan's complex and capture Uthan. The threat of the nanovirus was eliminated when the commandos destroyed the research facility. Uthan was injured during the extraction of the commandos, when she was being carried by Atin. One of Hokan's soldiers hit Atin with a blast from a Verpine shatter gun, injuring both of them. Uthan herself was badly injured by a pieces of Atin's body armor which had absorbed the blast and shattered into shrapnel. Fortunately, both were removed to a medical frigate and treated immediately, and both Atin and Uthan survived the blast. (RCHC) Uthar Wynn this being served as the leader of the Sith training academy on Korriban, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin.

The nobles slaughtered every member of the Cartha family, or so it was believed. It was later discovered that his daughter, Isplourrdacartha Estillo, and his son, Harrandatha, survived the executions, although Harrandatha was later killed by his sister. (XWWP) U-THR known to his owner, Thune, as Uthre, this bulky droid was a variant on the 3PO line of protocol droids. U-THR served aboard Thune's light freighter, the Faceted, as a co-pilot and companion. It was discovered that U-THR had once been owned by Deckland Carper. After Thune killed Carper in order to collect the bounty on his head, U-THR found himself in Thune's possession. She considered the droid nothing more than a tool, which made U-THR question any loyalty he might have felt to her. U-THR was something of a fussbudget and a perfectionist, and disliked it when Thune changed plans without notifying him. Thune liked the droid because of its immense data storage capability, something which allowed her to have almost instant access to a wealth of information. After Thune captured Kaj Nedmak, U-THR found that Kaj actually liked the droid, not just the fact that it was useful. When Thune stabbed Kaj in the heart with a knife, U-THR realized that it could no longer serve Thune. When Thune wasn't looking, U-THR gave Kaj a blaster with which to stun Thune, then helped pilot the Faceted in order to rescue Celia Durasha and Treytis Prash. After they turned in Thune to the authorities, U-THR agreed to join Kaj and Celia as a "free-trader," a description the droid preferred to "smuggler."

It was Utrop who was defeated by Lando Calrissian in a game of Divot, and who later helped Lando escape the bounty hunters searching for him under the rules of the Duff-Jikab, after Lando was captured by Quaffug the Hutt. When Utrop demanded that Lando allow him to kill Quaffug, Lando initially refused, and was forced to fight Utrop for the rights to Quaffug's life.

Shortly after the war eneded, the Uukaablians began dying of a disease they had never seen before. It was discovered, after decades of research, that the disease was caused by a microscopic germ created as a biological weapon during the civil war. The disease was quickly arrested, and the Uukaablians spent the next thousand years rebuilding their world and developing a vast medical knowledge base. They were untouched by the Galactic Civil War, but learned of the New Republic from the crew of the FarStar, during its search for Moff Sarne. The average Uukaablian stands over two meters in height, but has small features. Large, elliptical eyes dominate their small heads, which have thin noses and a lipless mouth. Their chins are studded with small, bony knobs, and their four-fingered hands are thin and delicate. In addition to their skills with medicine, the Uukaablians are also polite and diplomatic, and won't let a silent moment slip by without filling it with conversation. (KO) Uukaablian this is the native language of the Uukaablian race, and seems to be a derivative of Huttese.

His prowess spread throughout the galaxy, and he met every challenge with victory, defeating the likes of Meelto, Terrlarn, and Neena Garnet. In time, he was recruited by the Corporate Sector Authority, and he soon proved his worth by saving the life of the Assistant Advisory Undersecretary of Media. He was then recruited by the CSA's Secutiry Division, and was offered a huge sum of money to worked exclusively as Hirken's bodyguard. Uul saw the opportunity to guard the "soft, stupid human" as a way to earn lots of credits for little work.

However, there plans were crushed when Kuat began destroying the shipyards, rather than letting them fall into the hands of anyone else. Rozhdenst ordered the Scavengers to board as many of the capital ships under construction as they could to rescue them from the destruction. Many were saved, but many more were lost. (HM) |
