* Randy Simpson, for keeping me interested in all of this through The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, and for being a good friend above all else
* my Mom and Dad, who somehow managed to put up with all of my Star Wars posters and paraphenalia (even though most of it failed to survive my college years), allowing my imagination to grow unabated
* all the authors and editors who conrtibuted the many additions they've written to the Star Wars universe, especially Aaron Allston, Kevin Anderson, Cory Herndon, Daryl Mallett, Dan Wallace, and Megan Watkins
* all the folks at West End Games, for taking the small Star Wars universe and expanding it into a role-playing game
* all the artists who worked on Star Wars projects, for bringing the characters, equipment, and locations to life
* the Wake and Durham County, NC, Libraries, for providing me access to some of the source materials listed in the bibliography

* Dave Settle (Hey You), for reminding me that I needed to finish Rebellion!

Some Information on This Encyclopedia

This encyclopedia was created from all Lucasflimlicensed sources of Star Wars information. It was created without regard for what is "canon" what is not "canon" in the Star Wars universe. I have spoken with several respected members of the Star Wars community, both officially and unofficially, and many have grown to consider the Marvel tales as "myths and legends" within the Star Wars timeline. As such, they may or may not have happened exactly as retold in the Marvel comics. Think of it this way: when the United States Mens' Hockey Team won the Gold Medal at the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, NY, it was considered the "Miracle on Ice." The stories of the US players have been well-documented by the US press. Imagine, though, the stories of those hockey games as told through the eyes of the Russian players who lost in the semi-finals. They would tell a starkly different picture of the exact same events. I've come to think of the Marvel comics as retellings of events which occurred during the Galactic Civil War, from the perspective of those individuals who were in the background while the action was taking place.

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 encyclopedia. I hesitated, not sure if I should move. However, as the prequels approached and I starting hitting my limit by the 15th 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. 

Now that I'm with TheForce.Net, I'm reaching 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 really do enjoy reading your correspondences and answering your questions. Keep 'em coming, especially now that the encyclopedia is backended by a database!

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 crossreferences. 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. 




Notes on Encyclopedia Entries

All entries are listed alphabetically, with the assumption that numerals come after letters. There are many crossreferences  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.

Nonhuman names, however, are listed alphabetically by the initial part of their name. This is because I chose not to impose Earthbound 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 singlenamed humans, aliens who one have one word to their names are listed by that name (eg., Garindan).

If a character's race is unknown, their name is listed as it appears in the source.

Entries from any source not licensed or authorized by LucasFilm are preceeded by an asterisk (*). There's at least one of  them!

May the Force be with you...










A long time ago in a galaxy far,
far away...


* T *
T  
this was the alias used by Tahl, when she infiltrated the reformed Absolutes on the planet New Apsolon, some nine years before the Battle of Naboo. (TTB)
T. Chamber  
a group of container ships used by Galactic Electronics to supply the Pondut research station. (TIE)
T.I.E. Fighter  
the original twin ion engine starfighter produced by Republic Seinar Systems, this ship served as the basis for the Imperial TIE Fighter. It was succeeded by the Imperial TIE, before giving way to the standard TIE/ln fighter. (SWJ10)
T-11  
this JV-Z1/S databank droid served the Old Republic as a military tactics specialist. It was programmed with the details of thousands of skirmishes and battles, from feudal spats to incredible space campaigns. When the New Order was instituted, T-11 was poorly reprogrammed by Imperial engineers to pilot a garbage scow. The slicer who did the reprogramming failed to re-initialize several of T-11's memory circuits, and this didn't mesh well with its new programming. T-11 underwent several mutations of its basic subroutines, and its pattern of thought became erratic. The droid developed several distinct personalities, and disappeared only three months after its reprogramming. The droid and its garbage scow were eventually discovered by the Kaarenth Dissension, and was again destined for reprogramming. However, the personality in control of T-11 rebelled and would not condone a memory wipe. The master of the droid pool grew exhausted trying to fix T-11, and eventually assigned it to keep the Dissension's Skipray Blastboats ready for immediate takeoff. T-11 was quite paranoid, and felt that it was being stalked most of the time. (SWJ8)
T-11  
this was an out-dated, repeating blaster. (TG)
T112110  
this code provided access to the Trade Federation's concentration camp on the Street of Glory, during their invasion of the planet Naboo. (IOT)
T-12  
this small droid assisted Ulic Qel-Droma in his search for Sith information on Onderon. (DLS)
T-13  
an airspeeder built by Incom for terrestrial transportation. (SWSB)
T-14  
this was the designation of the hyperdrive generator used on many Nubian starship designs, often mated to the 327 hyperdrive unit. (TPM, X1)
T-15  
this was a model of snub-nosed blaster rifle produced by BlasTech during the New Order. (SWJ5)
T-1583  
this Imperial research and development space station was attacked and overtaken by Sard Nightbringer and her forces, during their attempt to rid Tamarin Sector of Imperial control during the early years of the New Republic. Sard discovered that the Imperial researchers had been working on a new form of body armor which was protected by a new form of shields, and she decided to auction it off to the highest bidder in order to obtain funds for her organization. (POC)
T-16  
a three-winged, triangular craft built by Incom for terrestrial transportation. Similar in controls to an X-Wing, they are often referred to as skyhoppers. The T-16 was equipped with an E-16/x ion engine afterburner, in addition to a pair of DCJ-45 repulsorlift engines, which gave it a top cruising speed of 1,200 kilometers per hour, as well as a 300 kilometer ceiling. The 5.2-meter-long craft was armed only with four stun lasers, and carried no shields. The top two lasers can be removed in favor of a targetting lasers, and the lower two lasers can be replaced with pneumatic cannons. With two wings pointing downward and the third wing standing straight up, the T-16 was a menaueverable craft that stood 10.4 meters in height. Luke Skywalker's uncle Owen Lars purchased a T-16 for him to use on Tatooine, which Luke used to fly the canyons and shoot womprats. (SW, SWSB, EGV, NEGV)
T-19  
this starfighter was produced for the Old Republic by Torpil, during the height of the Clone Wars. It was an exceptionally fast ship, and many of the pilots who flew it during the war remarked that speeds of 650 kilometers per hour were essentially "standing still" for the T-19. (JT)
T-19 Star Burner  
this was a high-speed sublight engine produced for small starships, during the early years of the New Republic. (BHKK)
T1-B  
this was the designation of Yutrane-Tackata's hovertank. It was used by the Alliance during the early stages of the Galactic Civil War. It was designed to be a swift-moving anti-infantry and anti-aircraft weapons platform. (FC)
T2.3  
see TD2.3 (NEGW)
T2/5/Zero  
this galactic quadrant contains the planet Phelarion. (CSWEA)
T21  
see T-21 (GQRG)
T-21  
BlasTech's light repeating blaster, the T-21 was a rifle-sized weapon which had a long, thick barrel. They were designed for military use, and could be adapted to use a larger power supply. This modification was not recommended, though, as the weapon tended to overheat under constant, heavy use. (RPG, CCG, EGW)
T-21 Hyper Particle Exchange Chamber  
this fictional device was created by Adi Gallia, as a device which the Jedi planned to peddle to the Yinchorri in order to infiltrate their base on Yitheeth. (AOW)
T-23  
an old model of skyhopper, similar to a T-16 in that its controls are very close to those of an X-Wing. (HTF)
T-238  
a chemical weapon that induced severe nausea when dispersed, T-238 was developed by Czerka during the height of the New Order. for use in chemical-load grenades. (ISB, AEG)
T-24  
this Incom repulsorlift airspeeder was antiquated by the era of the Battle of Naboo. It was considered the forerunner of the T-47 airspeeder used by the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. Only 200 T-24 speeders were ever produced, and most of them ended up in museums. The T-24 had gullwing doors and a stubby fin-like wing atop its cockpit canopy. (LSOM)
T-289  
this gas-filled stun grenade was manufactured by Czerka. (PP)
T-2c Personnel Transport  
this was Cygnus Spaceworks' version of the Theta-class shuttle, built during the height of the Clone Wars for the Old Republic. Measuring 18.5 meters in length, the T-2c had a maximum wingspan of 29.3 meters and a height of 18.5 meters. The folding wings of this shuttle were designed primarily to project powerful, overlapping shields, but also provided maneuverability and stability in flight. Upon landing, the wings were folded up to allow the ship to settle onto its landing gear. Equipped with a Class 1 hyperdrive, the T-2c personnel transport had a range of some 8,000 light-years. Requiring a minimum of a pilot to operate, the T-2c was made easier to handle with the addition of a co-pilot, navigator, communications officer, and a weapons expert. The weaponry of the T-2c consisted of a pair of quad laser cannons and an aft-facing laser cannon. Darth Sidious had a T-2c shuttle specially-modified by Warthan's Wizards, giving it the ability communicate across vast distances, as well as installing sensor masks and other technology to make the shuttle appear empty to most scanners. (X3)
T-3 Series Droid  
this was a heavy-duty model of navigation droid, created during the height of the New Order to assist in controlling vehicles that operated in harsh climates. (PZZ2)
T3 Web Comber  
this outdated device was used to analyze computer networks. (IWE1)
T-32S  
this light blaster was popular during the years surrounding the Battle of Naboo. (LFC)
T-32S  
this light blaster pistol was a favorite among smugglers during the last decades of the Old Republic. (LFC)
T-33  
this type of plasma torpedo was known as a shieldbuster, or a rotten egg. The T-33 was designed to detonate at a shield's perimeter, creating in intense radiation burst. This burst was several times more powerful that the combined power of a capital ship's ion cannons, and knocked out the target's shield generators. This allowed particle weapons to finish off the target. The T-33 was one of the New Republic's strongest weapons. (SOL)
T33-A  
this was one of the two Alliance encryption codes used to protect communications with the Condor drop point facility. (SWJ14)
T-35  
an Imperial tug. (XW)
T358723Q9930  
this was the document number of a report by the Alliance's military, comparing the performance of standard Imperial and Alliance starfighters. (XW)
T-36 Skyfighter  
this was a specialized skyhopper, built by Incom Industries during the height of the New Order to serve as a near-orbit defense ship. The mission profile of the T-36 was similar in many respects to that of the Imperial TIE Fighter. The body of the T-36 was based on the tri-winged design used in the T-16 skyhopper, but this meant that these craft were extremely susceptible to windshear, and pilots had to be careful around storms to avoid being disabled. This danger, coupled with the fact that the T-36 lacked inertial dampers and required a speciallized landing platform, made the T-36 a poor performer in its targetted role. Most of these craft were relegated to used as lightreconnaissance craft. Measuring 8.2 meters in length, the standard T-36 was a one-person craft that was armed with a double laser cannon. (SOT)
T3-B  
this was the designation of Yutrane-Tackata's heavy attack tank. It was used by the Alliance during the early stages of the Galactic Civil War, but was considered slow and heavy. Thus, it was used during surface-to-surface engagements. The T3-B was armed with missile launchers and heavy blasters. (FC)
T3-M4  
this ancient T3-series utility droid was created on the planet Taris some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, modified to serve as a personal security unit. It was given light armor plating and upgradeable weaponry, and its programming was augmented for use in slicing into computer systems and breaking encryption codes. It was also provided with a variety of combat routines, many of which bent the rules about a droid's ability to harm a living being. T3-M4's owner was never publically identified, and its creator, Janice Nall, never told who ordered the droid. In reality, T3-M4 was originally designed for Davik Kang, but the droid was stolen by the courier who was employed to obtain it. Canderous Ordo had been chosen as the courier, but he managed to hire a group to purchase the droid before he could acquire it. Ordo then used the droid to slice into Taris' computer networks and steal the necessary codes for evading the Sith blockade of the planet. T3-M4 was later acquired by Carth Onasi and Revan, who used the droid aboard the Ebon Hawk during the search for the Star Forge. After the defeat of Darth Malak, the Ebon Hawk disappeared in deep space. With her hyperdrive damaged and Revan unaccounted for, the ship was adrift until T3-M4 and 3C-FD repaired the drives. After the ship was brought to Peragus II by Kreia, T3-M4 proved useful when Revan set out to escape from the facility, which had been attacked by an unknown force. Although T3-M4 valiantly helped Revan escape, the droid was badly damaged when it breached an emergency hatch that opened into the mines. T3-M4 managed to reach a repair station, and got enough of its systems back online to return to Revan and escape from Peragus II. After being stranded on Telos, T3-M4 was captured by Atris and the Haindmaiden Sisters, who spent time downloaded large portions of his memory core. T3-M4, in turn, managed to acquire a recording of The Exile's sentencing, as well as a list of all known surviving Jedi Masters. During The Exile's search for surviving Jedi Masters, T3-M4 was lost in a game of pazaak and eventually sold to Vogga the Hutt, who put the droid to work in his warehouse on Nar Shaddaa. (KOTOR, SWDB, KOTOR2)
T3-M8  
this T3-series utility droid was repaired by Janice Nall and put up for sale at her shop on Taris, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. The droid was purchased by Carth Onasi and the survivors of the Endar Spire, but exploded shortly afterward. Janice Nall refunded their money, and eventually sold them T3-M4. (KOTOR)
T-3PO  
this silver protocol droid served aboard the Subjugator. T-3PO was roughly humanoid, with insectile plating. Programmed with a harsh, female personality, her years of service aboard the Victory-class Star Destroyer made her hate the humans who treated her as a tool. Her programming kept her loyal to the Empire, but it also gave her a sense of being and worth. When the Subjugator was attacked by an Alliance fleet, T-3PO's programming told that she was superior to the other droids on the ship, and so she had to survive the encounter. As the other droids deserted their posts in the confusion, T-3PO realized that her only hope was to follow the Alliance agents accompanying Walex Blissex. It is unknown if T-3PO survived the destruction of the Subjugator. (SF)
T-3PO  
this blue-tinted protocal droid was operating on the planet Trevura, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. T-3PO was a timid droid that worked for the assassin droid S-R6, and moved about the city of Voma in an attempt to purchase black-market versions of the experimental Imperial blasters being imported by Governor Merno Blask. It was later discovered that T-3PO had been outfitted with programming that allowed it to fire a blaster, giving T-3PO the ability to handle itself in a fight. (WOA14)
T3-series Droid  
this utility droid was produced during the years leading up to the Great Sith War, some 4,000 years prior to the Battle of Yavin. Canine in stature, the T3-series utility droid was known for its versatility, reliability, and adaptability, and they were used throughout the galaxy for jobs like janitorial duties to complex mechanical repairs. While more expensive than most models, the T3 was built with the most up-to-date technology available to its manufacturers, and was easily upgraded or customized to meet any need. (KOTOR)
T-4  
this large transport skimmer was developed for use by the Empire, and was designed to carry troops and equipment into battle. It could transport up to five tons of payload, and it was armed with a double-barreled energy cannon. (RAG)
T-4  
this was the name of the fourth planet in the Thaereian System. During the years following the Battle of Naboo, the Smugglers' Confederation and the Cularin military discovered a hidden base on the planet. Representatives of the Metatheran Cartel and the Thaereian Military were seen working together with other criminal elements, stockpiling bacta and other supplies. (WOTC)
T-40  
this was a model of flitter built by Incom during the Galactic Civil War. They could be armed with a double laser cannon for police and paramilitary use. (ML)
T-44  
this was a power shunt, developed by the Baktoid Armor Workshop and sold throughout the galaxy during the last years of the Old Republic. (HNN5)
T-47  
an Incom airspeeder which could transport 2 passengers and limited onboard cargo, the T-47 was originally designed as an atmosphere tugboat of sorts. The pilot controlled the craft's course, while the rear-facing "cargo manager" used magnetic harpoons to drag along repulsor-equipped cargo modules. However, because of their durability, the T-47 found widespread use on backwater planets as a transport vehicle. In its basic design, the T-47 could attain speeds near 1,000 kilometers per hour when unburdened, allowing it to quickly reach incoming ships. Some were converted into airspeeders, because the T-47 had a 250 kilometer ceiling. However, the Alliance was forced modified them for military use on the frozen world of Hoth, keeping them low to the ground to prevent freeze-ups. Alliance technicians added two fire-linked laser cannons, a power harpoon, and heavier shields. These craft could attain speeds of nearly 570 kilometers per hour. Other T-47s were modified to serve on water worlds, in deserts, or as high-altitude reconnaissance craft. In its base form, the T-47 measured 5.3 meters in length. (ESB, RPG, CHRN, NEGV)
T-4a  
designation of Cygnus Spaceworks' Lambda-class shuttle. It measures 20 meters in length, has a crew complement of 4, and is armed with 10 Taim & Bak KX5 laser cannons. It has been rated at a top speed of 65 MGLT, with 100 SBD shields and a 25 RU hull. (XW, TIE)
T5  
this was the model number of a force pike produced by Merr-Sonn. (AIR)
T-534D  
this was the designation of a public transportation skylane, found on the planet Coruscant. (HNN4)
T5-G3  
this protocol droid was modified by Imperial scientists for use as an espionage droid. However, a quirk in its programming surfaced in its logic dispenser that resulted in T5-G3 shutting down every six to eight months before its systems reboot. The droid was inserted into the New Republic's droid pool as a labor management droid, in hopes that it could provide information on the Republic's military actions. (WBC)
T-6  
this BlasTech heavy blaster pistol was known to soldiers as the Thunderer, and was marketed as the ultimate "superheavy" blaster pistol. It was first produced to compete in the marketplace with SoroSuub's Renegade weapon, and was the weapon known to have ended the "blaster wars" between BlasTech, Merr-Sonn, and SoroSuub because of its incredible power. Unfortunately, the T-6 tended to overheat because of its power, and the barrel of the weapon could warp. If this occurred, especially during a firefight when the weapon is not allowed to cool down, the focusing crystals can be misaligned and the T-6 could explode in the user's hands. (WSV, GUN, AEG)
T-6 Diodem  
this device, produced on the planet Arda-2, was used in starfighter targetting controls to establish a positive lock on a target. The natives of Arda-2 produced them for use by the Alliance, but they also produced a non-military version for certain household service devices. Mag Doum secretly recovered used home-service diodems and sold them to the Empire at significant markups. The Empire then installed them in TIE Fighters, and used them to attack Alliance starships. Luke Skywalker went to Arda-2 to protest what the Alliance saw as a direct sale of the T-6 to the Empire, and uncovered Mag Doum's plot. (CSWEA)
T-65A2  
see X-Wing (UF)
T-65A3  
one of the many improved designs of the Incom Industries X-Wing starfighter, the A3 was developed during the second decade of the New Republic. It boasted improved shielding and lasers, both of which required less power to operate, but were more efficient and accurate to use. It was bested in its generation only by the T-65XJ model developed for use by the Jedi Knights. One of the main upgrades on the T-65A3 was the secondary fire button on the command stick. It allowed the pilot to fire in a cycling, single-laser pattern no matter how the weapons were fire-linked. This secondary fire was shot out with less power than normal, allowing the weapons to cycle rapidly. This proved to be of use against the coralskippers of the Yuuzhan Vong, as it allowed pilots to pour larger amounts of energy into their black-hole shields, causing the shields to collapse. Regular firepower could then be used to punch through the coralskippers' rocky exterior. (DTO)
T-65AC4  
this version of the Incom X-Wing starfighter was produced about ten years after the Battle of Endor. It had speed to match an A-Wing, but was still as rugged and sturdy as the original X-Wings. The AC4's incorporated numerous advances in targetting, fire control, and power distribution. Armament remained similar to the original, with four heavy laser cannons mounted on the wingtips and a proton torpedo launcher. (JASB, SOG)
T65-AFP  
a new form of starship fuel pump introduced for use on X-Wings two years after the Battle of Endor. (XWN)
T-65b  
an early version of the Incom X-Wing. (SWSB, RASB)
T-65BR  
this version of the standard X-Wing starfighter was developed for use as a reconnaissance craft during the early years of the New Republic. The proton torpedo launchers were removed and replaced with high-gain long-range sensors. The T-65BR relied heavily on the use of an astromech, which acted not only as a navigational aid but as an automated controller of the sensor packages. Each T-65BR was also rigged with a deadman self-destruct system, which would destroy the ship if the pilot was ever killed in combat. This ensured that any data recovered by the ship would be lost and untraceable. (CTD)
T-65c A2  
this was the model name of the first X-Wing starfighter to be mass-produced by Incom Industries. Because of its designation, the T65c A2 was sometimes considered a modified version of the X-Wing. (SWSB, RASB)
T-65D-A1  
this version of the Incom X-Wing starfighter was introduced about seventeen years after the Battle of Endor. This X-Wing replaced the astromech R2 unit with additional computer power, providing more maneuverability and increased in-flight options for the pilot. The New Republic began replacing its old, aging T-65As with the T-65D-A1, until Cole Fardreamer discovered that their new shipboard computers were rigged with Imperial detonation devices. The computers had been built under the direction of Dolph, who planned to detonate them from Almania at a specified time. Cole found the detonators while repairing Luke Skywalker's old X-Wing, which was being refitted with the new computers. He showed the detonators to Wedge Antilles, who had originally ordered the newer X-Wings to replace the old ones. Wedge began recalling the newer ships before they could explode, and new computer systems were ordered to replace the rigged ones. (TNR)
T-65R  
this version of the standard Incom X-Wing starfighter was designed for surveillance and reconnaissance. Known as a snoopscoot, it employed a pair of sensor pods which trailed behind the ship to gather data on a nearby world. The sensor equipment could be jettisoned if the ship was attacked, and the pods recovered later. The T-65R lacked weapons, so it was often accompanied by other starfighters. (IR)
T-65XJ  
this heavily-modified version of the durable X-Wing starfighter was developed two decades after the Battle of Endor by Incom. Among the enhancements over the original models, the XJ had three proton torpedo launchers, each of which carried three torpedoes. The XJ series ship also had improved fire-linking capability, with the ability to link the four laser cannons in specific patterns of fire, rather than just combinations of the four guns. Thus the weapons could be configuration to fire a pair of dual bursts - from any combination of cannons - followed in the cycle by a single quad burst from all four cannons. The XJ was also equipped to use an R7-series astromech droid. Two of these ships found their way into the small fleet maintained by Kyp Durron, and many civilians believed that the "J" in the designation indicated that the ships were produced for the Jedi Knights. (VP, JE, BP, EVC)
T-65XJ3  
this was the latest version of the original X-Wing T-65 starfighter, produced by Incom Industries during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Among their many updates, the XJ3 series had variable-stutter lasers, decoy-enhanced proton torpedoes, and grab-proof shields. These sophisticated upgrades were all made in an attempt to give the starfighters some kind of advantage over the Yuuzhan Vong coralskippers and gravity-based technologies. They were especially useful when attacking alien ships using the so-called shadow bombs, since one torpedo launcher could be loaded with unpropelled missiles. (SBS, NJOSB)
T-65XJ5  
this modern version of the Incom X-Wing was build during the years following the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. (DN1)
T-70

T-71  
a model of skyhopper. (GOF4)
T-77  
an experimental airspeeder used by Luke Skywalker and Kam Solusar while exploring the planet Ossus, the T-77 was a bulbous craft with a large turbine engine mounted at the rear. A weapon emplacement was located under the nose of the speeder. (DE2, NEGV)
T-81  
this was a version of Incom airspeeder developed after the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn. (SOP)
T-831  
this immense droid was developed and manufactured by Zubintech, during the last century of the Old Republic. (SWJ7)
T-9PM  
this red-plated protocol droid served as a spaceport negotiator in Mos Eisley, on the planet Tatooine, during the years leading up to the Battle of Yavin. T-9PM, which had been programmed to consider himself more important than he really was, which served to hide the fact that T-9PM was owned by the Alliance. T-9PM served as the primary liaison to the various smugglers and misfits who fled Imperial control and wanted to assist the Alliance in overturning the Empire. (RESB)
Ta  
this MC40a was part of the Alliance's fleet, during the Galactic Civil War. (XVT)
Ta'a Chume  
the Queen Mother of the Hapan worlds during the era of the New Order, she is a devious woman who gave birth to two sons. She would stop at nothing to see her elder son married to a powerful new queen, but he was a pacifist and - in her mind - a weakling. So, she had him assassinated in order to elevate her younger son, Isolder, to the position of heir. When Isolder fell in love with Elliar, Ta'a Chume disagreed with his selection. She also had Elliar murdered, and pushed Isolder to marry a more fitting wife. Ta'a Chume also had a dislike for the Jedi Knights, and when she meets Luke Skywalker, the dislike only increases when Luke bests her in gaining information on Han Solo's whereabouts. She allowed the Old Republic some measure of respect, but when it crumbled and the Empire took over, she became a brutal leader, firming up the Hapan armed forces to keep the Imperials at bay. The Hapan worlds have since enjoyed a measure of prosperity, and Ta'a has been reduced to keeping the various factions from killing each other's heirs in attempts to gain the throne. She pretended to agree to her son Isolder's proposed marriage to Princess Leia, but she was secretly against it, feeling that Leia would bring nothing but the downfall of the Hapan government. She arranged for an assassination attempt on Leia's life, but it failed. Isolder, upon hearing of this, also accused her of killing his former betrothed, Elliar, and his older brother. Ta'a Chume eventually backed off, and let Isolder marry the Dathomirian "princess" Teneniel Djo. When Tenel Ka was born, Ta'a Chume began doting on the child, in hopes that she could twist the child into a "proper" Hapes Queen. In this effort, however, she failed, and Tenel Ka became a full Jedi. Ta'a Chume, it was later revealed, had something to do with the attempt by a group of Bartokk assassins to kill Tenel Ka, and she was forced to step down as Queen Mother and relinquish the throne to Teneniel Djo. Her abdication, though final, did not prevent her from keeping a hand in the dealings of the royal family. After the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, and after the destruction of a portion of the Consortium Navy at the Battle of Fondor, Ta'a Chume even condoned several assassination attempts on Isolder and Teneniel Djo. However, the opening of Hapes to war refugees was too much for her to take. With the help of her aide Trisdin, Ta'a Chume began searching for a young woman to replace Teneniel Djo - a young woman she could mold in her own image. Her first attempt to locate such a woman focused on Jaina Solo, shortly after the Jedi lost her brother Anakin to the Yuuzhan Vong. After arranging for the murder of her daugther-in-law, Ta'a Chume quickly ordered new leadership be instated for Hapes, blaming the murder on the Ni'Korish. Her plans failed when Tenel Ka agreed to take her mother's position, a right which was hers to exercise. Despite her position as former Queen Mother, Ta'a Chume was arrested and charged with the murder to Teneniel Djo. (CPL, EGC, JE, DJ)
Taadus, Grenvil  
this man served as an Imperial medical corpsman and combat surgeon on Bakura, during the rule of Governor Wilek Nereus. Taadus did not embrace the Empire, remaining as neutral as he could during the Galactic Civil War. During the Bakura Incident, it was Taadus who tried to keep Dev Sibwarra alive after his escape from the Ssi-ruuk. Unfotunately, Sibwarra's injuries were too grave to survive. Taadus later accompanied Petr Thanas in embracing the fledgling New Republic, and eventually served as a medical officer aboard the medical frigate Mercy. (TBSB)

this young man was the older brother of Reglis Taal. Philo was hunted down and killed by two bounty hunters, Krestock and Raxine, even though there was never a bounty placed on his head. Reglis eventually hunted Krestock and Raxine down and executed them for their parts in Philo's death. (GG10)
Taal, Reglis  
this man turned into a bounty hunter after his older brother, Philo, was shot and killed by Krestock and Raxine. Both believed that Philo was wanted, but there was never an official bounty posted for his capture. Reglis was just nineteen at the time, and hunted both of them down and executed them for their part in Philo's Death. Taal later documented his life in the autobiography, Endings and Beginnings: An Autobiography. (GG10)

Taan  
this female Yuuzhan Vong was a member of the Shamed Ones caste, and was part of the slave crew aboard the Stalking Moon. It was Taan who revealed to Corran Horn that the Shamed Ones believed the Jedi Knights would be their salvation. She later helped the Jedi gain control of the scoutship by communicating with Yuuzhan Vong commanders, claiming that the Stalking Moon had suffered a failure during hyperspace reversion, and that much of the command crew was injured or killed. (EVR)
Taan  
this young boy and his younger sister, Dyrla, lived with their father on Cularin, during the last years of the Old Republic. Their mother had been killed aboard a transport by the Thaereian Military, and the family came to hate the Thaereians as much as any Cularin natives. Thus, when the Cularin Militia was able to defeat the Thaereians and restore freedom to the Cularin System, Taan and Dyrla were among the thousands who lined the streets of their home city to witness a parade honoring the heroes of the Thaereian Conflict. Like his father, twleve-year-old Taan believed that the various members of the fighter squadrons and military units were the true heroes of Cularin, and he couldn't understand why Dylra adored Osten Dal'Nay. (LFCW)
Taan Yun-forqana zhoi  
this was the rallying cry of the Yuuzhan Vong priests. (DW)
Taan, Cather  
this stocky man owned and operated Cather Taan's Gun Shop, in the Storrd Township of the planet Seregar. The only decent arms dealer in the area, Taan was known for his knowledge of weapons and his stoic demeanor. He never bargained or traded, standing firm on his prices. His repair work was first-rate, another indication that his prices were fair, if not a bit higher than normal. (ND)
Taanab  
the natives of this planet aided by Lando Calrissian in turning away a group of raiding Norulac pirates. Taanab had one moon. The Empire had used Taanab as a major food production facility. Note that X-Wing Rogue Squadron: Requiem for a Rogue names this planet as Taanad. (ROTJ, SWJ5, XWRR)
Taanab Exercise  
this training exercise was designed by Luke Skywalker to train his new Jedi Knights. It involved trying to determine what the correct course of action would be in averting a flood that threatened a group of villagers. The students were required to investigate the available data and decide how best to avoid a disaster. Among the facts presented was the sudden appearance of off-world speculators who planned to sell homes on the floodplain to Alderaanian survivors. The villagers were actually building in the most dangerous area of the floodplain. (DTO)
Taanab Operation  
this battle was aprt of Grand Admiral Thrawn's plans to unsettle the fledgling New Republic, some five years after the Battle of Endor. As part of the Taanab Operation, Thrawn dispatched the Bellicose to harass the planet Taanab in the wake of the Battle of Sluis Van. In order to ensure pinpoint accuracy and coordination among the Imperial forces, Thrawn planned on using the skills of the Dark Jedi Joruus C'baoth to coordinate the battles plans. However, C'baoth went out on his own and used a Force technique to link all the gunners' minds to his own. He then was able to control the entire firing plan, and used the Imperial forces to his own ends. Thrawn relieved him from the operation when he found out about C'baoth's maneuver, allowing the Dark Jedi to return to Jomark and await the arrival of Luke Skywalker. (DFR)
Taanab Sunrise  
this New Republic warship was badly damaged during the Battle of Garqi, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. It was saved when the Imperial Remnant, under the command of Admiral Pellaeon, intervened in the battle in support of the Republic. The Red Harvest placed itself between the Yuuzhan Vong force and the Taanab Sunrise, absorbing damage while allowing the Taanab Sunrise to escape. (DTR)
Taanab Yellow Aces Squadron  
this all-volunteer starfighter squadron, made up of A-Wings and E-Wings painted yellow with angular black stripes, joined the New Republic forces which massed at Borleias in the wake of the Battle of Coruscant. Originally based on Taanab, the squadron flew escort duty for the Reckless Abandon during the resupplying of the Borleias base. When the squadron arrived at Borleias, it was revealed that their leader was none other than Wes Janson. The Yellow Aces remained attached to the New Republic's forces after the formation of the Galactic Alliance, and was instrumental in the liberation of the prisoners of war that were held on Selvaris.

Taaphur  
this sea creature was once native to the planet Yuuzhan'tar, before it was rendered uninhabitable by the Yuuzhan Vong, many millennia before the Battle of Yavin. By the time the Yuuzhan Vong reached the New Republic, the taaphur was extinct. It existed only as a genetic blueprint inside a Shaper's qahsa, in case such a creature was ever needed for a new purpose. (FP)
Taat  
this was one of the many hives that made up the Colony. Like all other hives within the Colony, the members of the Taat hive referred to themselves, as well as the entire nest, as Taat, and acted upon the Will of the Taat hive. The Taat established their nest on the moon Jwlio. When the Colony's conflict with the Chiss was resolved, some five years after the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Taat was the first of the Qoribu hives to be relocated to another planet. The entire hive was moved aboard the Kendall and transported to a world that was deep in the Unknown Regions, well away from Chiss space. (DN1)

Table-field  
in the game of sabacc, the table-field was essentially the game table on which players could deposit the card-chips in their hands. In accordance with the rules of sabacc, the card-chips in a player's hand could change in suit and/or value with each deal, adding the element of chance to the game. Once a card-chip was placed on the table-field, though, its suit and value were locked for the duration of the hand. This allowed players to keep certain cards during the hand, in the hope of achieving a total value of twenty-three. (LCS)
Tabletop Mesa  
located on the planet Corellia, this natural landmark was part of the swoop course used to determine the planet's best rider. Most riders chose to fly over the mesa, as this was the safest route. Han Solo, using the alias Tallus Bryne, captured the trophy when he opted to fly through the mesa, using a tunnel to shave off the time required to fly up and over the structure. (TPS)
Tabok, Vence

Tabor chose to fight Silus in order to avenge the death of his brother. However, Tabor was no match for Silus, either physically or in the Force. In the end, Silus managed to wrap a cable around Tabor's neck, which he jerked mightily. Tabor was beheaded by the snapping of the cable. (T24)
Taboret  
this mammal, native to the planet Nedij, was hunted for its tasty flesh. The Nediji created a tasty stew from taboret meat. (MJH)
Tabory, Evlyn  
this young girl, the daughter of Rosemari Tabory and the niece of Jorad Pressor, was about ten years old when a mission to locate the remains of the Outbound Flight Project actually found the ships, some fifty years after the mission was destroyed. Evlyn was distinguished by her auburn hair and bright blue eyes, as well as her precocious nature. Pressor knew that there was something unusual about the girl, although he couldn't quite put his finger on it. When the Chiss-led mission to locate Outbound Flight arrived on the ships, he used her to lure their unexpected visitors into turbolifts, where he trapped them while trying to figure out what to do with them. Jorad knew the Evlyn was gifted, and believed that she had some sensitivity to the Force. He feared that this knowledge would leak out to the rest of the survivors, but also knew that it couldn't be kept a secret forever. When Bearsh and his companions revealed themselves to be Vagaari pirates, Evlyn and her mother and uncle were trapped in a conference room with Dean Jinzler and Aristocra Formbi when Bearsh released three wolvkils to keep them from escaping. Jinzler remembered that the Outbound Flight Colony's comlinks were equipped with a special communication frequency that could cut through jamming, and asked Evlyn to use her nacent powers to recover one from a fallen Peacekeeper. Evlyn was too scared to respond, and Pressor immediately forbade. Jinzler, however, convinced Pressor and Rosemari to allow Evlyn to make the attempt. She concentrated hard, and was able to move the comlink into a position for Jinzler to grab it. After freeing themselves, Evlyn found herself under the protection of Mara Jade Skywalker during their attempt to defeat the Vagaari. After the Vagaari threat was eliminated, Evlyn and her mother agreed to accompany the Outbound Flight Colony to Nirauan, staying as far away from the New Republic as they could. (SQ)
Tabory, Rosemari  
this woman, the sister of Jorad Pressor, was one of the Instructors who worked on the Managing Council of the survivors of the Outbound Flight Project, during the years leading up to the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. She was distinguished by her auburn hair, a trait she shared with her daughter, Evlyn. Since she was born after the Devastation, Rosemari was considered a member of the Colonists, and often represented them at meetings of the Managing Council. After the Vagaari threat was eliminated, Rosemari and Evlyn agreed to accompany the Outbound Flight Colony to Nirauan, staying as far away from the New Republic as they could. (SQ)

Tacema  
this was one of the more common surnames used by the Duros people. Like all such names, Tacema was used only for official business, to indicate one individual from another when in the presense of non-Duros. This name literally meant "pest control warden". (GCG)
Tach  
this small primate was native to the planet Kashyyyk, and was hunted for a small gland found within its body. The gland, when dried and powdered, was known as a powerful stimulant to many races.

T'achak T'andar  
this hyperactive little Chadra-Fan was a scout and explorer who worked as part of the crew of the FarStar, during the New Republic's hunt for Moff Sarne. T'achak signed on as a repulsor engineer, working on the various shuttles and ground vehicles maintained in the ship's holds. He was well-trained for the role, having worked as a lead engineer Incom and test-driver for the likes of Ubrikkian, Aratech, Ikas-Adno, and even Mobquet. When T'achak decided to join the New Republic, his commanding officer was unable to curb T'achak's desire to ddrive everything to its limits. Thus, he was placed on the FarStar in an effort to place where he could do the least amount of damage. (DARK, KR)
Tachi, Siri  
this young girl was a Jedi trainee, and a contemporary of Obi-Wan Kenobi shortly after he was chosen to be Qui-Gon Jinn's padawan. She was actually two years younger than Obi-Wan, but her skills with the Force and in lightsaber combat moved her forward in her class to Obi-Wan's level. She was considered to be quite beautiful by the male students of the time, although she chosen to wear a boyish haircut and clothing to mask her looks. Her blue seemed to darken or lighten dependning on her feelings. Siri found that she hated Obi-Wan after he had forsaken the Jedi to become involved in the Melida/Daan civil war. After the destruction of Xanatos, she was chosen by Adi Gallia to be a padawan, and they were assigned by Master Yoda to accompany Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan to Kegan to witness first-hand how a master and an apprentice worked together. Despite her skill and grace, Siri was impatient to move forward in her training, and often bristled in the presence of Obi-Wan's own patience. They were captured and held by the Keganites in the Learning Circle, in an effort to keep the Jedi from taking O-Lana back to Coruscant for training. The two quickly found a way to work together, and Siri learned more from Obi-Wan than she thought she could have. Eventually, they escaped the Keganites and helped bring Kegan into the galactic community. Later, during a mission to the Kessel Run, Siri and Adi Gallia had an intense argument, and Siri chose to leave the Jedi Order. Obi-Wan later discovered that Siri's split with the Jedi had been part of a far-reaching plan to infiltrate the slave ring of Krayn. In the intervening years, she dropped her given name and was known by the pseudonym Zora. After returning to the Jedi Order, Siri and Obi-Wan found themselves paired with their Masters on several missions. During the mission to protect Talesan Fry, Siri and Obi-Wan realized that they had fallen in love with each other. Knowing that attachment was forbidden among the Jedi, they struggled to resolve their feelings and their allegiance to the Jedi Order. Ultimately, both agreed to bury their feelings and never think of each other in anything other than a professional light. About three years after the Battle of Naboo, she joined forces with the pirate Krayn and earned his trust. She was unable to help Anakin Skywalker when he was captured by Krayn, but kept an eye on him until both of the were captured. With the help of the slavegirl Berri, they escaped and met with Aga Culpa and Nor Fik, arranging with both beings to oppose Krayn and allow the Jedi to destroy his organization. After the successful slave revolt, and following Anakin's killing of Krayn, Siri returned with the two Jedi to Coruscant. The experience with the slavers left Siri with a rebellious streak, which she displayed upon being named a Jedi Knight by cutting her hair short and wearing a leather unisuit. She eventually took Ferus Olin as her Padawan learner, and refused to take another Padawan after Ferus voluntarily left the Order, after the death of Darra Thel-Tanis. Just prior to the Clone Wars, Siri was dispatched with Garen Muln on a mission to the Xanlanner System. While en route, they discovered Obi-Wan's distress signal from TY44, and helped him reach Vanqor to rescue his apprentice, Anakin Skywalker. In the wake of the Battle of Geonosis, Siri was dispatched to the planet Kamino. The starship Slave I had been sighted there, and the Jedi Council wanted Jango Fett brought in for questioning. She discovered that the ship had been piloted back to Kamino by Jango's son, Boba, but she was too late to intercept him. Later, at the height of the Clone Wars, Siri was again teamed with Obi-Wan and Anakin, this time traveling to Genian with Padme' Amidala to negotiate for a codebreaking device created by Talesan Fry. After acquiring the device and returning to Azure, the Jedi found themselves under a Separatist attack. Magus himself had joined the Separatists, and tried to kill Talesan. Siri found herself protecting Padme', but had to disable Magus' ship to do it. In a bold move, Siri jumped onto Magus' fighter and fought her way in. Although she disabled Magus, she was shot in the chest. Shortly after Oibi-Wan pulled her from the ship, Siri died of her injuries. Before dying, though, she gave Obi-Wan a crystal she had carried with her as a Padawan, so that her memory could live on in him. (CT, FFT, SWDB, JQ, JQ1, BF1, JQ7, SOJ)
Tachyon Detection  
a method of searching areas of space for targets. It is best used as a long-range detection system. (SCRE)
Tachyon Flier  
this battered YV-888 light freighter was discovered by Lowbacca in the hold of the Baanu Rass, and the Jedi team dispatched to the worldship hoped to use it to escape from the Yuuzhan Vong, once they had eliminated the voxyn queen. After Raynar Thul was injured by a voxyn, he was placed aboard the Tachyon Flier in preparation for the group's escape. However, the ship was commandeered by Welk and Lomi Plo, who jettisoned Lowbacca before takeoff. However, they were unaware that Raynar Thul was still inside. As they blasted into space, the Tachyon Flier was picked up by Yuuzhan Vong sensors, and was almost immediately attacked. In no time, the ship's shields gave out, and the Tachyon Flier was believed to have been destroyed. All aboard the ship were thought ot have died in the blast. However, this conjecture was eventually proven false when the Colony rose to prominence in the Unknown Regions about five years later. The crash site of the Tachyon Flier was discovered on Yoggoy, deep in the Unknown Regions, by Jacen Solo. All three passengers managed to survive, with the help of the Yoggoy insect hive. Raynar Thul was integrated into the Unu hive and became UnuThul, the enigmatic leader who helped grow the Colony. Welk and Lomi Plo were also rescued by a hive, which became known as the Gorog. The site of the crash became known as Ub Ruur, a sacred place to the Colony. (SBS, NJOSB, DN1)
Tac-Spec Footman  
this series of personal service droids was produced several centuries before the Clone Wars, but was widely considered one of the most loyal and deadly types of droids ever produced. The Tac-Spec Footman's primary programming centered on loyalty to its owner, which it backed up with the ability to assassinate almost any being who posed a threat to its master. The kill ratio of the Tac-Spec Footman was virtually unparalleled among other droids, let alone among assassins in general. The entire run of production was quite small, and each droid was produced at a high cost to its buyer, but the cost was more than offset by the loyalty and protection it offered. (YDR)
Tacto  
this was one of the two major cities, along with Aubendo, found on the planet Radnor. Together, they were considered the Twin Cities. Some five years after the Battle of Naboo, Tacto was also known as the Clear Sector, when a plague was unleashed in the city of Aubendo. The two cities were isolated from each other, in order to minimize the spread of the plague. After it was discovered that the Avoni were using the plague to hide their plans for invasion, the natives of Tacto refused to assist in helping the survivors in Aubendo, preferring to remain in their homes and safeguard their posessions from Avoni threats.

Tadrin, Cassander  
this Esselian man was the head of a privately-owned conglomerate that owned some twenty-four agricultural worlds in the Core Worlds, a century before the Clone Wars. He grew bored with the trappings of life in the Core, and invested a great deal of credits to purchase a swarm of survey droids. These droids were sent into the Outer Rim to look for a suitable world for him to relocate on. The world, which became known as Cassander, proved attractive to many of Tadrin's employees. So, he sold his shares in the conglomerate and arranged for thousands of his loyal employees and their families to settle Cassander. (GORW)
Tadrin, Luthus  
a native of the planet Garqi, Luthus Tadrin spent his youth on Minashee, where he was known as a playboy. Upon returning to Garqi during the early years of the New Order, Luthus was refused roles and responsibilities within his family, after it was learned that he had become an Imperial supporter. Instead, he took on roles working for the Imperial officers in the Cassandran Worlds, and was eventually named Governor of the Tadrin Sector of the galaxy just before the Battle of Endor. His decision to join the Empire made him an outcast from his own family, although he maintained access to the family's fortunes. After the Emperor's death at Endor, Luthus became reclusive, preferring to remain at luxurious resorts on Spira and Shulxi. (GORW)
Tae-Jitsu  
this was a form of martial art practiced by a small number of beings during the last decades of the Old Republic. It was considered to be generally ineffective, and more bluster than martial art. (TAE)
Tafanda Bay  
a floating city like many others on Ithor, the Tafanda Bay was a self-contained ecosystem, mimicking the planet's environment while providing many technological necessities. The Tafanda Bay was one of the few Sky Yards-class herdships that were bound to planetary duty on Ithor, because much of its ecosystem was external rather than contained beneath transparisteel domes. It was commanded by an Ithorian named Momaw Nadon until a passing Imperial Star Destroyer threatened to destroy the planet if Nadon didn't cooperate. Nadon It has been the flagship of the Ithorian Grand Fleet for a number of years. Following the destruction of the Empire after the Battle of Endor, Momaw Nadon returned to take his place as the leader of Tafanda Bay. In the wake of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, and their destruction of the planet Ithor, the Tafanda Bay was one of the few refuges where Ithorians could live. (SCRE, DA, SWSB, EGV, GMR4)

Taggar, Rone  
this New Republic pilot was among those who drew reconnaissance duty during the Yevethan Purge. He was chosen to fly his X-Wing, the Jennie Lee, in a flash pass over N'zoth. The New Republic desparately needed information on the Yevethan defenses, and ordered reconnaissance of the 13 major Yevethan worlds. Taggar managed to gather a large amount of data on the planet before being overtaken by the Yevethan warship Beauty of Yevetha. Rather than be captured or betray the Republic, Rone programmed his X-Wing to self-destruct as it was drawn into the warship's hangar bay. His death, and the destruction of his ship, caused a great deal of damage to the Beauty of Yevetha and allowed the Republic to receive his reconnaissance data. (SOL)

Tagge, Cassio  
this Imperial General was part of Tarkin's support staff, serving as the tactician in charge of the first Death Star's defenses. Tagge was also in command of the Army forces deployed on the battle station. He was worried about the growth of the Rebellion and its possession of the plans to the first Death Star, for he had discovered the flawed exhaust port an knew its significance. However, he lacked the personality and courage to speak out about it. He was described as slimy and noisome. Tagge was later killed when the Alliance was able to destroy the first Death Star. Tagge was portrayed by Don Henderson in Star Wars: Episode IV - A new Hope. (SW, SWN, MTS, DSTC, GORW)
Tagge, Domina  
this woman, a member of the wealthy Tagge family, was shipped off to the planet Monastery to join the Order of the Sacred Circle, in an effort to preserve her innocence. Sister Domina eventually became a priestess of the Order, and was known for her leadership of the sisterhood on Monastery. Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, she found herself in the midst of political intrigue as the Order's leaders decide that they were ready to side with either the Empire or the Alliance in the Galactic Civil War. At the same time, her brother Ulric traveled to Monastery to talk her into allying herself with Vader in order to avenge the death of their brother Orman at the hands of Luke Skywalker. In a devlish scheme, requested that Skywalker serve as the Alliance's representative to Monastery, during the negotiations with the Empire. Of course, the Empire's representative was none other than Darth Vader himself. Luke, smitten with Domina's beauty, was unaware that Domina had already allied herself with Vader. She and vader manipulated the members of the Order of the Sacred Circle to revoke the power of the Circle of Elders and name her High Priestess. Her first order was to have Luke killed and the Alliance destroyed, ostensibly as threats to the great circle of life. It was decided that Skywalker and Vader should duel to the death in the Crystal Valley; Domina had manipulated them both into a position which would result in both their deaths, avenging the Tagge family once and for all. Howeer, her plans were thwarted by both Vader and Skywalker, and Domina was forced to relinquish her position as High Priestess. She allowed the Order of the Sacred Circle to ally itself with the Alliance, but she never forgave Skywalker for killing her brother. Later, Domina tried to take control of the universe by unleashing the Crimson Forever. She had a team infiltrate the Red Nebula and steal one of the huge gemstones that protected it. She then placed it aboard a Star Destroyer and set it adrift in Alliance-controlled space. She hoped that the Alliance would bring the gemstone out of the ship, thereby affecting countless billions of beings before anything could be done to stop the disease. Her plans failed when Chewbacca revealed to Leia Organa and Lando Calrissian what the gemstones really were, prompting a mission to return the gemstone to the Red Nebula. Leia abandoned Domina Tagge on the fringes of the Red Nebula, after obtaining the second crystal. (LTA2, MC35, MC36, MC37, MC50)
Tagge, Orman  
this Imperial Baron was the older brother of Ulric Tagge, the Imperial officer killed aboard the first Death Star. Orman Tagge was, at one time, the leader of the Corporate Sector Authority, and helped gain complete independence from the Empire. Of course, the CSA was required to funnel credits and resources to the Imperial war machine for little to no profit. Orman was blinded by Darth Vader, and used a cyborg vision system to see. He was skilled in the use of a lightsaber, although it was not known if he was ever a Jedi Knight. Much of his lightsaber training was geared toward revenge, for Orman wanted nothing more than to defeat Vader in combat in return for his lost eyesight. He masterminded a plot to reveal the location of the Alliance's bases in the wake of the Battle of Yavin, as part of a powerplay to discredit Vader in the Emperor's eyes. Under the pretense of mining spice near Yavin, Tagge took a family cruiser and landed on one of Yavin's remote moons. There, he established a giant space station in the very heart of Yavin's atmosphere. Using sophisiticated turbines, the station created tunnels through the swirling gases, allowing TIE Fighters to travel to and from the station. These TIE Fighters then launched a series of attacks on the Alliance's base on Yavin 4, hitting swiftly and then disappearing. The existence of this space stationwas discovered by Luke Skywalker, who managed to capture one of the modules used on TIE Fighters to create smaller tunnels when in communication with the station. Skywalker managed to destroy the station, but Orman Tagge ordered a retreat as soon as Skywalker's mission became clear. His main crew made it back to his personal ship, which then followed Skywalker out of Yavin's atmosphere. Tagge vowed revenge against Skywalker as well, for foiling his plans to win the Emperor's favor. The failure at Yavin cast all of Tagge's Imperial contracts in doubt, and he was forced to review every project he was handling and report back to the Emperor personally. Orman hoped that the Omega Frost device, developed by his brother Silas, would save the Tagge name. He planned to use it within the asteroids separating Yavin from Junction, cutting off a major supply route. He believed himself prepared when Skywalker once again tried to foils his plans. However, in a lightsaber battle with the youngster, Tagge nearly lost his life. Luke was able to destroy Orman's cybernetic vision unit, leaving him completely blind. Luke escaped, and Orman when into a state of shock over the fact that Luke had allowed him to live. Unfortunately for the Tagge family, the trap they had laid at Junction backfired. The Alliance fleet they hoped to destroy discovered the plans for the Omega Frost, and fired on the Baron's personal starship. In minutes, the ship suffered catastrophic damage and exploded. Orman and Silas, however, survived the blast in a sealed chamber, which was recovered by Darth Vader. Vader kept the Tagge brothers in suspended animation, for his own later use. Orman, however, overcame the suspension and managed to escape by stowing away aboard the Millennium Falcon. He managed to reach the surface of Monastery, hoping to make contact with his sister, Domina. Unfortunately, Orman was intercepted by Darth Vader once again, who was on Monastery at Domina's bidding. Vader forced Orman to meet Luke Skywalker in combat, although Orman's appearance was altered by the Force. Luke fully believed he was fighting Vader, but his killing blow disintegrated the illusion. Orman died from the injury, as Vader's final "punishment" for his treachery. (MC25, MC26, MC30, MC33, MC34, MC36, MC37, NEGW)
Tagge, Sanya  
this woman was a Baroness in the Tagge family during the last decades of the Old Republic. Baroness Tagge, by her leadership of the Tagge family, was in control of the House of Tagge during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. She pledged the support and resources of TaggeCo to Chancellor Palpatine, during the wave of unrest which followed the secession of many worlds from the Republic. (HNN4)
Tagge, Silas  
this man, the middle brother of the Tagge family, was one of the many scientific minds behind the technologies produced by House of Tagge. A balding man with jet-black hair worn long where it still grew, Silas was a man who believed whole-hearted in the advances of science. He refused to eat real meat, instead favoring the instant nutrition and simplicity of food pastes. Among Silas' most interesting inventions was the Omega Frost device, which was successfully tested in the deserts of Tatooine. Silas lacked his older brother's need for vengeance, and chose to be pragmatic about things such as the Alliance. However, when Luke Skywalker managed to disable one of the Omega Frost generating devices in the asteroid belt near Junction, Silas saw his grandest invention suddenly fail. His mind began to crack, and he could not longer operate on his own. He retreated into the medical facility aboard the Tagge ship, hoping to rouse his brother and get him working on solving the problem. However, the Alliance ships they had planned to destroy were free to reach Junction, and took a slight detour to eliminate the Tagge threat. In minutes, the combined firepower of the meager Alliance fleet destroyed the Tagge ship, killing all aboard. Silas and Orman, however, survived the blast in a sealed chamber, which was recovered by Darth Vader. Vader kept the Tagge brothers in suspended animation, for his own later use. (MC31, MC32, MC33, MC34)
Tagge, Ulric  
this man, the younger brother of Baron Orman Tagge, was a General in the Imperial armed forces during the height of the Galactic Civil War. While he hated the fact that Orman continued to launch crazy schemes in an effort to further the family fortunes, Ulric understood that he had more to gain if the Tagge family could become more valuable to the Emperor. To this end, Ulric often manipulated military contracts in order to further the Tagge family's businesses, and paved the way for new Tagge technology to be introduced. Ulric found himself named Baron of the Tagge family estate when both of his older siblings, brothers Orman and Silas, were killed in the Omega Frost debacle at Junction. However, Ulric was confronted by Darth Vader shortly afterward, who revealed that he had recovered the bodies of Orman and Silas. Using their reanimation as a pressure point, Vader forced Ulric to agree to his own plans, not those of the Tagge family. (MC31, MC34)
TaggeCo  
the huge, powerful, and diverse Tagge Company was owned and operated by the influential House of Tagge, based on the planet Tepasi. It had an incredibly wide variety of products, and are similar in some respects to SoroSuub. TaggeCo also owned Mobquet Swoops and Speeders, Tagge Industries, and Trast Heavy Transports. During the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo, TaggeCo was one of the many corporations that was allied with the Trade Federation. However, in the wake of the battle and the Federation's reprimandation, TaggeCo severed all ties to the Federation, claiming that it could no longer trust the Federation's leadership. TaggeCo was one of the original Signatory Sponsors of the Corporate Sector Authority. During the Clone Wars, TaggeCo remained neutral, but came to side with the Empire during the Galactic Civil War after several prominent TaggeCo executives were given positions as Imperial officers. With the Emperor's death at the Battle of Endor, TaggeCo agreed to work closely with the New Republic, ensuring that its corporate revenues would continue to flow in. (EGV, CSA, HNN4, NEGW)

Tahl  
this Jedi Master was a native of the planet Noori, and was a contemporary of Qui-Gon Jinn when she was sent to Melida/Daan to mediate the civil war that had engulfed the planet. Tahl had been brought to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant when she was a six-year-old with a sharp tongue and a way of reading people's secrets, and had trained with Qui-Gon. Both reached the level of Jedi Knight at about the same time, discovering their bond after a chance meeting on Zekulae. She was known among the Jedi for her diplomatic skills and her patience with others, although she never took a padawan. Tahl was wounded and captured by the Melida shortly after the Twenty-Second Battle of Zehava, when she was dispatched to Melida/Daan to help negotiate a peace treaty. Qui-Gon and his padawan, Obi-Wan Kenobi, were dispatched to locate her, but they were captured by Wehutti and the Melida as well. They were rescued by members of The Young, who led them to Tahl's severely wounded body. Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan managed to rescue Tahl, and got her prompt medical attention off-planet. However, as a result of the injuries she suffered at the hands of the Melida, Tahl was rendered blind. Her connection with the Force remained strong, though, and she found she could still "see" with its help. In the wake of the Melida-Daan incident, Tahl chose not to take on a Padawan learner, and traveled to Centax 2 to look into Clee Rhara's starfighter training facility. After the sabotage was linked to Vox Chun, Tahl returned to Coruscant and took Bant Eerin as her Padawan. When Ewane was killed on New Apsolon, Tahl demanded to be sent to the planet to discover the truth. She managed to infiltrate the Absolutes, but had to break off all contact with Coruscant in order to maintain her cover. When Qui-Gon traveled to the planet to help her, she initially chafed at his intrusion. However, her love for him overcame her anger, and she accepted his help. While searching for the Absolutes' base of power, Tahl pledged her life to Qui-Gon when he told her of his devotion to her. Unfortunately, her cover had been blow, and Tahl was forced to flee. She was pursued and captured by Balog's forces, who believed that she had a list of those Workers who were informants to the Absolutes. Tahl did not have the list, but told Balog otherwise so that he would keep her alive. Qui-Gon managed to rescue her, but she was too weak to continue living. Balog had caused severe damage to her body with his interrogation drugs, and Tahl was barely able to escape from his base. After Qui-Gon brought her to Manex's residence, doctors struggled to help her, but they were unable to save her. Tahl died knowing that Qui-Gon loved her with all his heart. (DOD, UP, JAD, TTB, DOH)

Tai  
this Nagai male, whose full name was Taikotelai Akikoma, was captured by Leia Organa and four Zeltrons - Rahuhl, Marruc, Jahn, and Bahb - on the planet Trenwyth, shortly after the Nagai decimated its population. He had been the victim of torture at the hands of an unknown being, and was terrified when captured by them. He whined the entire time that the Alliance team was waiting for a rescue ship, since their own vessel was damaged in the fighting for Trenwyth. He seemed to develop an emotional attachment to Leia during his captivity, as she was the only member of the group to show him any compassion. It was later discovered that Tai was a wing leader in the Nagai Navy. When he returned to Nagi, Tai was killed by his commanding officer, Den Siva, for accepting the help of Organa and the Zeltrons.

this was the name used by Jaina Solo to identify Tesar Sebatyne and his hatchmates, Krasov and Bela Hara, after the three Barabels joined the Jedi Knights in fighting against the Yuuzhan Vong.

Tailring  
native to the planet Socorro, this desert-dwelling reptile resembled a small, winged dragon. Also known as sand dragons, tailrings lived near the underground water oases of the planet in small groups. Their skin was covered with black scales and patches of short fur, and the shed their annualy. Each molting produced a new knob of hard skin on their tails, which eventually formed a kind of rattle. Tailrings are attracted to shiny objects, and are considered excellent thieves. However, they are also considered a good-luck charm by Socorran pirates, who strive to find one in the desert. Tailrings bond almost instantly to a being they identify with, forming a lifelong bond. The pirates welcome their company because, for an unexplained reason, tailrings love to eat mynocks, and they will attack any mynocks attached to their owner's ship. (BSS)

Tainer, Doran  
this was the name of the son, born to Kell Tainer and Tyria Sarkin several years after the defeat of Warlord Zsinj. He was somewhat sensitive to the Force, and his mother spent many years travelling the galaxy with him, in an effort to expand his - and her own - horizons. (EL1)
Tainer, Kell  
a human male from the planet Sluis Van, Kell was one of the first pilots to serve in Wraith Squadron. His real last name was Doran, but after the death of Kissek Doran, his mother changed their name and tried to start again. She moved her family to Alderaan just before the Empire destroyed the planet, and only Kell was offplanet when the Death Star arrived. This series of actions galvanized his resolve to fight back against the Empire, and Kell joined the Alliance shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Kell served as a mechanic at the Sluis Van Shipyards, before they were destroyed during the struggle against Grand Admiral Thrawn. He then joined the New Republic and was a demolitions expert with Page's Commandos. Kell then demonstrated an ability to fly starfighters in simulation, and was given the chance to try the real thing. However, after he crashed a Z-95 Headhunter and an X-Wing in practice - claiming unresponsive controls each time - he was demoted from the pilot ranks. Wedge Antilles was impressed enough with his abilities, though, to offer him a spot with the Wraiths. When Kell realized that Wes Janson - the man who was forced to shoot down Kissek - was also part of the Wraiths, he balked. Wedge Antilles maneuvered him into staying with the Wraiths, however. Kell served as the Squadron's demolition's expert and it's backup mechanic. After the capture of the Night Caller, Kell fell in love with Tyria Sarkin. When the Wraiths were called upon to defend Talasea from an attack by Apwar Trigit, Kell worked hard to protect his fellow Wraiths. For his bravery and ingenuity, he was promoted to Lieutenant. His unusual tactics and skills also attracted the notice of Starfighter Command, and they awarded him the Kalidor Crescent. During the hunt for Warlord Zsinj, Tainer assumed the identity of Lieutenant Dissek, a member of the Hawk-bat Independent Space Force. After Zsinj was defeated, Kell and Tyria were married, and a son was born to them shortly afterward. Years later, as the fight against the Yuuzhan Vong progressed, Tainer continued to work as a Wraith Intelligence officer. He was part of the group which ended up on Borleias in the wake of the Second Battle of Coruscant. (WS, IF, EL1, GMR9)

Taire, Bufon  
this well-muscled, dark-skinned man worked as the bartender at the Outlander Club, during the years leading up to the Battle of Geonosis. Many of his patrons believed that Taire watered down his drinks, but never confronted him about it because his prices were reasonable. His heavily-scarred face and mismatched eyes belied his rough-and-tumble career, a trait which earned him his role with Volven Roxe. (SWDB, SWI75)
Taisden  
a New Republic Intelligence officer in charge of deciphering the Teljkon vagabond's transmissions, Taisdan served on the Glorious. He remained with Pakkpekatt's reduced fleet, trying to solve the mystery of Lando Calrissian's whereabouts after the vagabond jumped into hyperspace. (BTS, SOL)

Takeel  
this burned-out Snivvian mercenary was known in Mos Eisley as a spice-addicted double-crosser. He turned many individuals over to the Empire. Takeel was the twin brother of Zutton, and was the first of the pair to speak and walk. He was forced to undergo personality reprogramming in order to avoid any genetic problems, but the operations left him with little remaining to his own mind. He later worked for Jabba the Hutt as a small-time bounty hunter, and was ordered to recover the missing accounting droid CZ-3. Takeel caught up with the droid, only to have Tols Vengra confront him. The Jenet claimed that the droid was the property of Opun Mcgrrrr. Unfortunately for both Takeel and the Jenet, Zutton blasted the droid to pieces. (CCG, MTSE, SWJ11)
Takel, Griff  
this Imperial governor was placed in charge of the political situation on Esseles when Palpatine instituted the New Order. He was often involved in military and political struggles with the Hall President Ralle, who wanted the Esselian militia to have more latitude to control the planet, without Imperial interference. (SWJ7, SWJ8, SWJ9)
Takel, Miltin  
this man was one of the Empire's twelve Grand Admirals. Takel was known as a brilliant strategist, and he was solely responsible for the Imperial victory at the Siege of Trasemene. Unknown to most of his peers, Takel was also addicted to glitterstim. He used the powerful stimulant to help him "foresee" the events of a battle, which gave his strategies a better chance of succeeding. Takel was aboard the second Death Star during the Battle of Endor, and was deep in the throes of a glitterstim high when the Alliance began its assault. He immediately felt the anxiety of Grand Admiral Declann and the death of Emperor Palpatine, and fled the space station before it was destroyed. When the Imperials regrouped at Kessel, Takel's heightened senses picked up a strange connection to the being chosen to succeed Palpatine, Trioculus. However, Takel went too far in questioning Trioculus' proposed tactics, and Trioculus had Takel executed for his insubordination. (SESB, ECH, SWI66)
Takhaff Uul  
this young Yuuzhan Vong priest was one of the devotees of Yun-Yuuzhan. Shortly after the Battle of Coruscant, Takhaff Uul approached the Warmaster, Tsavong Lah, with the interpretation of a dream he had. The dream was believed to have come from Yun-Yuuzhan himself, and indicated that the god was angry for not receiving a portion of the glory which was coming from the conquest of the galaxy. For this reason, the radank claw which Warmaster Lah had grafted to his own arm was failing to bond with the rest of his body. The Warmaster was already questioning the judgement of Ghithra Dal, and was tracking the actions of Dal and Uul. In an effort to prove that no one could stand against him, Tsavong Lah let loose a herd of wild rancors aboard the Shaper transport ship Fu'ulanh, killing Ghithra Dal and all his compatriots, including Takhaff Uul. (EL1, EL2)

Takkar, Anlys  
this woman was married to Moff Derran Takkar. Equally devious and beautiful, Anlys was the perfect match for Derran's ruthless nature. After being stranded on Dolis 3 when the Imperial Remnant signed a peace accord with the New Republic, Derran and Anlys decided to try and disrupt the wedding of Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade. They hoped to hold the ceremony hostage while exacting a form of revenge on the Republic. When Derran's brute-force methods failed to get them anywhere on Coruscant, Anlys tried to get her hands on the wedding dress designed for Mara, in an effort to steal it and put a halt to the ceremony. She intercepted Jari'kyn and tried to steal the dress, but Banner Sumptor decided that her methods did not warrant his loyalty. Sumptor shot Anlys' escort, allowing Jari'kyn time to hit Anlys over the head and render her unconscious. Anlys was later imprisoned to await trial. (U)
Takkar, Derran  
this man was the Imperial Moff of Dolis 3, a position he attained shortly before the Battle of Endor. He remained staunchly loyal to the Empire, something that was easy to do given Dolis 3's remote location from Coruscant. Takkar and his wife, Anlys, vowed to exact revenge on the New Republic, but were unable to determine the correct point in time to strike. Their opportunity came when it was announced that Luke Skywalker was going to marry Mara Jade. Takkar gathered his former officers - Banner Sumptor, Chik Apla, Chala Venan, and Iry Danta - and set off for Coruscant. There, they tried to disrupt the wedding in any way possible. Several plans failed, until Anlys suggested stealing Mara's wedding dress and putting a halt to the ceremony. This plan nearly succeeded, but Banner Sumptor disabled Anlys's escort, and Anlys was knocked unconscious by Jari'kyn. Derran realized that he had to take matters into his own hands, and infiltrated the wedding disguised as an Ithorian diplomat. Into his costume he placed a datapad loaded with a virus which would wipe out New Republic communications stations throughout the galaxy. He threatened to download the virus into the Republic's computers, destroying communications and fragmenting the fledgling Republic. Derran was unaware that the New Republic had shielded Coruscant's computers from just this sort of sabotage years before, and the plan was ultimately doomed. However, Luke Skywalker did not use the Force to coerce Derran or prevent him from triggering the virus anyway, and Derran found himself unsure about the propaganda he had read on the Republic. Ultimately, Luke offered him a chance to join the New Republic on his own terms, and Derran agreed to try. (U)

this female Ho'Din was known to the people on Obroa-skai as an art dealer, a gambler, and a thief. Her love for art was the only love she has; she has no morals or respects for other beings. She ran the Sophistication art gallery, which dealt in works created by the dilletantes of Imperial society, although her background was in the artwork of pre-technology civilizations. Tal Anavere herself detested the art created by the talentless Imperials, but nonetheless managed to sell most of it. Her contacts within the Empire allowed her to surreptitiously gather useful information, which she later passed on to the Alliance. She also brewed an addictive tea, which she served in her gallery in order to keep the Imperials happy with her work. (CRO)
Tal Fraan  
this young Yevethan Proctor obtained perjured pleas from beings captured during the Yevethan Purge. The pleas indicated that the Yevethans were transporting the prisoners on the warships that met the New Republic's Fifth Battle Group at Doornik-319. Tal Fraan had spent time with humans and other New Republic races, and knew that they would not fire on innocent prisoners. The ploy worked to perfection, as the Fifth Battle Group's K-Wing bombers held off from attacking the Yevethan ships, which opened fire and decimated the Republic's forces. Nil Spaar was not at all happy to learn that Tal Fraan had risked the Yevethan fleet in this way, but he was pleased with the results and kept Fraan as an advisor. When Tal Fraan continued to underestimate the New Republic, and the Black Nine shipyards were lost at Prildaz, Nil Spaar could no longer tolerate his young protcor. Nil Spaar sliced off Tall Fraan's head with a single swipe of his arm, and left the body for garbage rather than honor it with burial. (SOL, TT)

this Gotal Senator to the New Republic was in charge of the Senate Justice Council during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. She oversaw the deposition of Senator Viqi Shesh, during the investigation of the events leading up to the debacle at the Battle of Fondor. When the Republic regrouped on Calamari, Senator Ranth was nominated as one of the candidates for the position of Chief of State. Many Senators worried that Ranth was not actually considering a true campaign, but was simply building up enough support so that she could withdraw at the last moment and sway the vote to another candidate in return for political favors. She maintained a good percentage of the vote, however, and was courted by both Fyor Rodan and Cal Omas in an effort to swing the vote. In the end, Ranth threw her support to Cal Omas. In return for her loyalty, Cal Omas promised Ranth a position on the High Council which oversaw the actions of the Jedi Knights. (JE, DW)

Much of the planet was continually being reshaped by volcanic activity, but small continents made from tors and spires dotted the surface. The next planet in the system was a reddish-gold gas giant, which filled the horizon of Talas with blazing colors. The planet was purchased, some years before the Battle of Naboo, by the Quarren egg-mates, Tallet and Lekket. (HFAS)
Talas Piran  
this hulking Locan was a slave on Hintivan II for many years, using only vibro-axes to fell the huge trees which grew on the planet. At some point, he managed to acquire enough credits to buy his own freedom. However, instead of setting out on his own, Talas Piran sold his abilities and experience with slaves to the Mytaranor Slaving Council. His knowledge of controlling slaves earned him several promotions, until he found himself as the chief slavemaster on the Council. His physical prowess earned him even more respect, and soon was named the leader of the Council. In order to heighten his position, Talas Piran often wielded the same vibro-axe he used on Hintivan II, but he was smart enough to realize that a dead or injured slave worth considerably less than a perfect specimen. (AIR)
Talasea  
situated as the fourth world in the Morobe System, this planet was located near the Galactic Core.

He flew an X-ball Ugly into Kala'uun Starport and challenged Wedge to a duel, with the kor as the reward for the winner. When Wedge accepted the challenge, Tal'dira then challenged Koh'shak's truthfulness in his business dealings. Tal'dira accused Koh'shak of keeping all ryll profits for himself, and Koh'shak could not refute the claim. Tal'dira took control of the negotiations, and gave the kor ryll to Wedge as a gift, warrior to warrior. Tal'dira later delivered a squadron of Chir'daki starfighters to Rogue Squadron, to supplement the forces going up against the Bacta Cartel. When Nawara Ven was shot down in the Battle of Thyferra, his injuries forced him out of the cockpit. Tal'dira accepted Wedge's offer to join the Rogues, and continued the tradition of a Twi'lek in the squadron by serving as Rogue Five. However, his tenure with the Rogues was cut short during the hunt for Warlord Zsinj. In a bold move, Zsinj had his agents brainwash certain members of specific alien species in order to create a rift between the human and non-human races of the New Republic. This was known as Project Funeral,and Tal'dira was one of those beings brainwashed. When Galey gave him the code phrase "Wedge Antilles hops on one transparisteel leg," the implanted programming took over. He was compelled to kill Wedge, and got his chance over Jussafet 4. However, his sense of loyalty and honor cut in at the last moment, and he allowed himself to be shot down and killed by Corran Horn, rather kill his commanding officer. (KT, BW, SOC)

Talia  
this woman was the hereditary Queen of Onderon, ruling over the planet and the moon of Dxun during the years following the Mandalorian Wars. Many citizens felt that Queen Talia and the members of her Royalist supporters were too disconnected from the population, and that she lacked the proper concern for her people. Some, like General Vaklu, took matters into their own hands, and tried to unseat the Queen in a blody coup attempt. Queen Talia, however, had enlisted the aid of The Exile and his companions, who exposed Tobin's part in the entire plot to overthrow her rule. As predicted by Kreia, Queen Talia had a long and prosperous rule. (KOTOR2)
Talid  
this race of nomadic humanoids was native to the planet Ando Prime. Their thick skin provided them with a measure of protection against the harsh, wintry weather of the planet. The Talid society was very open, and there was little concept of trade, bargaining, or commerce. If a Talid needed something, they simply took it whenever they found it. Because of this social trait, the settlers who came to Ando Prime believed that the Talids were simple thieves. The Talids were already slightly xenophobic, and the growing number of offworld miners gave then cause to retreat further. When the offworlders began encroaching on their lands, the Talids began to fight back, using their knowledge of the planet's environment to offset their primitive weapons. (GMR2)
Talien  
this Yarkora gambler lived on Onadax during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Han Solo beat Talien with a cubic sabacc once, much to the Yarkora's surprise.

Talking Bomb  
this was the term used to describe the makeshift bombs that were constructed by the Ugnaughts of Cloud City, when they launched their rebellion against Imperial Captain Treece. Each of the twelve bombs built by the Ugnaughts was equipped with a droid brain, which powered up whenever a living being tried to approach the bomb. The droid brain was attached to a vocoder, and the droid began talking to the being nearest to its location, offering apparently sincere information on how to disarm it. As the Imperials discovered, however, this information actually armed the bomb and set it to explode. After Treece was removed from Cloud City, several black marketeers tried to sell these bombs, but their effectiveness was limited by the fact that many beings knew they were providing false information. (PH)

Note that the Star Wars Adventure Journal, Issue 7 claims that Tallaan in a younger member of the Core Worlds. Tallaan benefited greatly from its location, being located at the intersection of the Shapani Bypass and the Giju Run. It is the home of one of the oldest shipyards in the galaxy, which was set up around the time of the Great Sith War. During the modern era, these shipyards were overrun by the Empire, and alien slaves were at first removed from their positions as laborers, After the formation of the Guild of Non-Human Skilled Laborers, aliens were allowed to maintain their jobs, and many were imported to perform the labor. A strong cell of Alliance support blossomed on Tallaan, but was never able to remove its Imperial yolk. The Empire officially noted Wilhuf Tarkin's death as a shuttle accident at the shipyards. (SWJ7, CRO, PGT)

Tallaga  
this was one of the largest cities found on the planet Sucharme. The Trade Federation maintained a garrison in Tallaga, until it tried to force the natives of Sucharme to repay a debt. The garrison was shut down by the Federation, in an effort to eliminate any possible resistance from the armed forces of Sucharme. Unfortunately, many of the officers and soldiers escaped before the lockdown of the garrison was completed, and these insurgents led a successful resistance campaign against the Federation. (GCG)
Tallah Dynasty  
this ancient dynasty had governed the planet Gala and its three tribes for many generations. The Tallah were the first rulers to unite the three tribes of the city, hills, and sea into a single people despite their deep-seated hatred of each other. However, over the years, the Tallah rulers became corrupt. King Cana of the Tallah was unable to prevent the more powerful families of Galacian culture from solidifying their own power bases, and the government became more distanced from the lower classes. After Cana's death, his wife Veda assumed control of the dynasty. Just over a decade before the Battle of Naboo, Queen Veda realized that the populace would not stand for the corruption of the dynasty any further, and opened up a general election to chose her successor. The elections were to have been mediated by Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, but they were hijacked to the planet Phindar by Paxxi Derida. The Tallah maintained a country estate, well away from the demands of the government in Galu. Veda often retired to the estate during her illness, but was unable to travel during her last days. Note that Jedi Apprentice: The Hidden Past calls this the "Beju-Tallah" dynasty. (HP, MOC)

Tallet  
this Quarren and and his egg-mate, Lekket, were once native to the city of Heurkea, on the planet Calamari, until a business dealing with Senator Tikkes exposed some of their illicit dealings with the Hutts. Tikkes, rather than have his own name smeared because of his association with them, exposed them as criminals and had the Old Republic police shut down their operation. Tallet and Lekket escaped, and were forced to eke out an existence on Talas. During their escape, the two Quarren noticed that a Jedi Knight was assisting the police, and vowed to gain a measure of revenge on the Jedi for ruining their lives. Tallet himself was injured in the escape, his head and shoulders bathed in toxic fuel when the Jedi deflected a blaster bolt into the fuel cell. Lekket brought him to Balmorra, and paid a group of Colicoid scientists to restore as much of his body as they could. Tallet and Lekket later hired Aurra Sing to hunt down and kill Tikkes and the Jedi, whom they later identified as the Dark Woman, shortly after the Battle of Naboo. (HFAS)
Tallet  
this name was commonly given to Quarren males, and meant "adventurous". (GCG)

this was one of the many clans of the Nosaurian race, which was native to the planet New Plympto. (CCW)
Tallon Roll  
the starfighter combat maneuver was designed by Adar Tallon, to help pilots compensate if they overshoot their target. The attacking craft closes too quickly on its target, and overshoots it. The Tallon Roll can then be used, as the attacker first levels out, then pulls the nose of his ship upward in a tight spiral. The defender is then the ship which overshoots. The maneuver is often dangerous, as it can temporarily disorient the attacking pilot. (RASB)
Tallon Split  
this theoretically simple maneuver was devised by Adar Tallon. Despite its simplicity, it required split-second reactions and uncanny reflexes from two fighter pilots, and was especially dangerous to execute. The two pilots flew close to each other, approaching a capital ship. They needed to be close enough to register on the capital ship's targetting computers as a single target. At very close range, the two fighters split apart. One continued on its strafing run, while the other drew fire from the capital ship's weapons and away from the first ship. The idea was that the ship on the strafing run had about five seconds of clear sailing until the capital ship's targetting computer could detect it as a second target. When executed correctly, this allowed a small fighter to score large damage to the capital ship. The Tallon Split was used with surprising results by Alliance starfighters, during their evacuation from the planet Hoth. (MTS, GG3)
Tallon, Adar  
a naval commander in the Old Republic, he was a masterful battle technician whose maneuvers were used by the Empire, and are still used by the New Republic. He was at his best when he worked with his friend, Jan Dodonna. Dodonna's strategies were often paired with Tallon's starship combat maneuvers to create incredibly effective battle plans. During the early stages of the Clone Wars, Tallon held the rank of Admiral, and often spent time speaking with new recruits about the realities of war. When the Empire grew to power, Tallon faked his own death rather than being conscripted into the Imperial Navy. He hid on the planet Tatooine, until a group of Rebels found his hiding place and convinced him to join the Alliance. (RASB, TM, RCHC)

Talmont, Eugene  
the Imperial Prefect of Tatooine, stationed in Mos Eisley during the years of the Galactic Civil War, Talmont succeeded Orun Depp during the last years of Jabba the Hutt's life. His career as an Imperial servant was unremarkable, and it moved him from backwater world to backwater world. Talmont was quite full of his own self-importance, and hoped to escape the drudgery of Tatooine by capturing Jabba the Hutt and bringing down his criminal empire. He was appointed to the post by Tour Aryon after Orun Depp was executed by an assassin droid. This fact frightened Talmont to his core, and lived in fear the entire span of years in which he was Prefect. (GG7, TJP, MEAS, SWI65)
Talnar  
this Alliance procurement officer was shot down by Imperial forces over Naalol, and was forced to crashland on the backwater world.

Its year lasts 219 local days. Taloraan hsa seven moons and a magnificent ring system, but it also has an intense magnetic field and suffers from atmospheric ionization. Thus, it has never been fully surveyed. It is located in the Expansion Region. The little exploration that has been done on Taloraan has indicated that, at certain levels within the clouds, habitation could be possible. In acutality, the planet harbors an abundance of life, including the fleft-wauf and sleft-chuffni. Humans have also recently settled the planet's upper atmosphere, living inside colossal island beasts. Taloraan is important because of the abundance of tibanna gas in its atmosphere, and it has been shown that Taloraan's tibanna gas is breathable at higher altitudes. (SWJ5, RSG)

this female Bith spent a number of years wandering the galaxy as a technician before returning to her homeworld of Clak'Dor VII during the height of the New Order to become a teacher. She discovered that she had a knack not only for understanding technology, but for explaining it in terms that non-technical beings could understand. Talrin was hired by Nozho University, and her talents made her the de facto professor for the handful of non-Bith who attended the school. The only problem with her skills as a teacher were in her ability to grasp the mood of her audience. She lacked the ability to notice when her students were bored, and often rambled on without adding any life to her lectures. (GORW)

He and his troops remained hidden until the Vagaari left the area, then entered the Outbound Flight to rescue Formbi and the others. Talshib's troops were able to seal off the pylons between Dreadnaughts, which were damaged when the Vagaari stole the D-Four Dreadnaught. This saved the lives of those beings still on Outbound Flight, sealing in their limited air supply.

As was customary, Balawai who were subjected to the tan pel'trokal were blindfolded and taken deep into the jungle. There, they were stripped of all their possessions, including clothing and supplies, and left to survive on their own. In this way, the Korunnai removed the fallability of the human being from the judgement of another being, leaving the jungle itself to decide one's fate. Very few Balawai ever returned alive. Because the Balawai controlled the daylight hours with their gunship patrols, the Korunnai chose to set loose their prisoners at night. (SHPT)

Tan left her homeworld to become a travelling entertainer and dancer, but ended up on Questal. She established Shilley's just before the ardanium boom, and was able to profit during its height. She worked hard to keep her bar a neutral ground between law and order, and was privy to much of the underworld information the police force didn't know.

The ancestors had tried to leave their planet to explore the galaxy, but their ship experienced problems and had to turn around. Those who remained behind weren't ready for such a swift return, and the ship lost its way in an evening fogbank, crashing with a mighty impact and killing all aboard. Each night from that point forward, the ghosts of the explorers returned in their gohstly starship to torment the living.

Realizing that his work could possibly lead to the destruction of the Old Republic, Ratri stole a wealth of project files and the only working prototype of his work and went into hiding. He took his family and fled to his wife's homeworld of Corellia, where he thought he might be safe. Corellia, at the time, was striving to remain neutral in the growing conflict between the Old Republic and the Separatists. However, the Techno Union discovered his defection and sent a group of mercenaries to recover the prototype at all costs. The Jedi Knights were called in to rescue Ratri before the mercenaries, led by Tendir Blue, managed to capture Tane. However, by the time they arrived, Tane had already been captured by Blue. Unknown to Blue, however, "Tane" was actually Nejaa Halcyon in disguise. The real Tane had already been whisked away to a safehouse to ensure the survival of he and his family. When the Jedi refused to cooperate, Blue shot "Tane" with his blaster and escaped, believing that he had killed the real Tane and recovered the prototypes he had been carrying. The ruse was necessary, because the Old Republic wanted the Techno Union to believe that the threat to the Separatists posed by Tane's defection had been eliminated. (SWI66)

The tangle gun fires a large, semi-flexible webbing which is created from naorstrachem mixed with a shrinking agent. The web begins to contract when it comes in contact with a warm surface, such as a living body. The webbing wraps around the target and tightens, trapping the target almost instantly. The problem with most tangle guns - and the Tangle Gun 7 was no exception - os that the webbing often contracted too much, despite efforts to modify the mixture.

Tangrene was a mountainous world of craggy peaks and deep canyons, and was virtually barren of vegetation and surface water. A race of sentients once lived on the planet, but the Empire enslaved them during the construction of its garrison there. The Moff in charge of the sector decided that the natives would be more of a liability than an asset, and exterminated them before they could pose any threat.

a Corellian Corvette ("Blockade Runner") piloted by Captain Antilles, the Tantive IV was the diplomatic ship used by the Organa family of Alderaan, on their missions for the Galactic Senate during the final years of the Old Republic. Once painted blue to indicate its home port of Alderaan, the Tantive IV was later painted red to indicate its status as a consular ship, and under diplomatic immunity. This did not stop Darth Vader from chasing the ship down over Tatooine and boarding it, shortly before the Battle of Yavin. He was pursuing Princess Leia Organa, who he believed to be a supporter of the Alliance. At the time, Leia was using the Tantive IV to obtain the plans to the first Death Star from Toprawa, then fly to Tatooine to recruit Obi-Wan Kenobi out of retirement. Her mission was intercepted by Vader near Tatooine, after a short pursuit through hyperspace.

They were hunted for their warm, supple pelt, and regulations had to be put in place to ensure the native populations were not decimated. These creatures had a strong family relationship, living and hunting in groups of ten or so individuals in the equatorial regions of the planet. Tantla offspring stayed with their mothers for over a year, and were earnestly protected by the older males.

Tantra Sector  
this was one of many galactic sectors which seceded from the Old Republic, following Count Dooku in joining the Confederacy of Independent Systems. (HNN4)
Tantra, Zoodia  
this former decorated Imperial TIE Bomber pilot was one of the few females in the Imperial Navy. She didn't care about politics or policy, she just wanted to fly. She was considered a hero of the Navy, having flown nearly sixty missions without failure. However, her sixtieth mission proved tragic, as her escort fighter fired on her bomber by accident while trying to lock onto a B-Wing. Zoodia's bomber crashed on a small moon, but no attempt was ever made to rescue her. She was rescued by an agridroid which notified the authorities of her survival, but Zoodia had suffered major damage to her right arm. The recovery mission arrived too late to save the arm, which had to be amputated and replaced with a cybernetic prosthesis. The artificial arm, coupled with the Empire's lack of commitment to rescue her caused her to resent the Imperials, and she blamed the Empire for her pains. She resigned her commission, and travelled a number of backwater worlds before meeting Xalto Sneerzick. Sneerzick's words rung true with her, although she wasn't sure if it was because of her emotional state or the fact that a droid had rescued her. She joined the Droid Abolitionist Movement, and became Xalto's enforcer. She used her Imperial background as a cover for the Movement's ambushes of Cosmohaul Shipping transports, and then became an engineer when Sneerzick's team managed to infiltrate Cosmohaul and take control of the Argent Lady. However, like all of Sneerzick's followers on the Argent Lady, Zoodia was killed by the very R5 droids she was working to free. (SWJ9)

an arboreal predator native to the planet Noquivzar. (XWN)
Taoska  
this frozen ball of ice and rock was the fifth planet in the Tyrius system. (SPG)
Taozin  
this huge, segmented worm was notable because of its ability to hide from the Force. Its long body was protected by segmented, overlapping plates, dotted with nodules which were several centimeters across. A collection of small arms studded its front sections, while a series of thick legs ran along the sides of its body. The head of the taozin was armed with a pair of meter-long mandibles. Behind each side of the taozin's mouth was speciallized gland which produced a sticky, viscous fluid that solidified on contact with air. The taozin used this to build its tunnels, as well as to caoture prey. Visually, the taozin's entire body was transparent, including its plated skin and internal organs. The internal structure of the taozin's body allowed it to break up light, including the light created by a lightsaber. This made the taozin almost impervious to a lightsaber attack. They were believed to have been extinct, a belief which was due in part to the fact that the creature did not radiate any presence within the Force. It was discovered by the droid I-5YQ that the skin nodules of a taozin could be severed from the body, and yet still were invisible to the Force, as Lorn Pavan used one nodule to sneak up on Darth Maul. Further investigation revealed that the taozin was native to the moon Va'art. (DMSH, WOTC, PJSB)
Tap Tree  
native to the moon Sulon, and similar to the taproot tree of Altor 14, this immense tree can grow for more than 1,000 years.

Tapani Sector  
this area of the Colonies region of the galaxy was considered a respected part of the Core Worlds, due to its proximity and wealth. It was made up of two distinct areas: The Expanse, located in the heart of the sector; and the Freeworlds Region, situated along its border. In all, Tapani Sector included seventy star systems, of which about 15 systems were heavily populated most other systems have some form of settlement, primarily mining colonies. The inhabited worlds were controlled by some 345 noble families, each of which was aligned with a major political House. On most navigational charts, the only ways into or out of the sector was by the Shapani Bypass or the Giju Run. (EGP, PGT, TSIA)

Tapani, Shey  
this warrior prince was a member of House Melantha, and rose to power in Tapani Sector some 8,000 years before the Battle of Naboo. It was Shey Tapani who first envisioned a united Tapani Sector government, and to this end he started a vast, bloody civil war to bring all the Houses into a single body. During the twenty years of the war, Tapani eliminated two Houses completely while a third collapsed a century after he was crowned emperor. Tapani established the sector capital on Procopia, building a vast estate on Estalle Island. Sixteen successive generations of Tapani's descendants ruled the Sector, until the dynasty was overthrown in favor of a more democratic government. (PGT)
Tapani-class Carrier  
another starship designed by the Tapani Starship Cooperative, this 375-meter-long starship was developed to deliver scores of Manta-class starfighters into battle. Armed with six turbolaser batteries and ten ion cannon batteries, the Tapani-class carrier requried a crew of 1,885 officers and 53 gunners, and could transport up to 100 troopers, 120 pilots, and 75 metric tons of cargo. (LOE)
Tapani-class Cruiser  
this starship design was manufactured by the Tapani Starship Cooperative during the early years of the New Order. Also classified as an assault frigate, these ships were armed with twenty laser cannons, fifteen turbolaser batteries, and six quad-laser batteries. The Tapani-class cruiser measured 750 meters in length, and was crewed by 3,550 officers and 114 gunners. It could transport up to 800 troops and 12,500 metric tons of cargo. (TSIA, LOE)
Tapcafe  
this was the generic term for a bar, often housing several games of chance. (DFR)
Tapeno Library  
located on Procopia's Estalle Island, this library was famous for its collection of books, scrolls, mundane holocrons, and computer banks which documented the last 7,000 years of history in Tapani Sector. Despite the support of nearly all the sector's noble Houses, the Library was unable to prevent the complete loss of its records of the Jedi Knights from the planet Pelagia. (LOE)
Tap-Nar-Pal  
this Cerean male was training to become a Jedi Knight, under the tutelage of Jedi Master Ronhar Kim, when the Clone Wars broke out across the galaxy. Kim recognized Tao's potential, and often felt that his apprentice was well ahead of him in terms of insight and skills. As the war ground on, Tap approached his Master with a strange plan to have all the Senators of the Republic tested for midichlorians. He had heard the story of Obi-Wan Kenobi's imprisonment on Geonosis, and the report Obi-Wan had made about his interrogation by Count Dooku. Tap believed that the war could be cut short if the Sith Lord in the Senate was exposed. Master Kim agreed to bring the idea to his old friend, Chancellor Palpatine, who argued that the idea would cause more damage than good. Tap suggested that Palpatine himself be the first to take the test, thereby showing the rest of the Senate that it was a good idea. Palpatine agreed to think about the idea, but asked the Jedi to keep it to themselves for the time being. Immediately after their meeting with Palpatine, Kim and Tap were dispatched to Merson, to establish a staging area for a larger mission to eliminate the Merson Pirates. While Master Kim led the ground forces, Tap remained in space, leading the starfighters that defended the small fleet that accompanied them to Merson. Both the fleet and the ground forces were ambushed upon their arrival, and were cut off from each other. The ground forces took heavy casualties when Captain Gilad Pellaeon was unable to free up a rescue ship. Tap took it upon himself to break away from the fight to try and rescue his Master, but his ship was badly damaged by Separatist droid starfighters as he reached the planet's surface. Unable to control the ship, Tap died when it plowed into a field and exploded. (RBL)
Tapper, Quelev  
Talon Karrde's former second-in-command, Quelev accompanied Kaarde to Varont where they decided to see if the safari business was profitable. Quelev himself was a former leader of a smuggling group, and made a small fortune in the wake of the Battle of Endor. However, much of his business was in Imperial-held territory, and he was hunted down by a local governor. Karrde happened to be in the area, and they agreed to merge their operations and avoid the Imperials. On Varonat, they stumbled onto Gamgalon's Yagaran aleudrope business, and got too close to the truth. They were cornered by Gamgalon's forces, and Tapper tried to turn the tables. He was too slow, though, and was killed in a firefight. (EGC, TFE, SWJ1)
Tappratine  
also known as the codru bat, this four-winged bat was native to Munto Codru. (EGP)
Tapps, Kaaver  
this man was a member of the tactical analysis team assigned to Supreme Chancellor Valorum, shortly before Valorum was deposed. Tapps was dispatched to the Naboo System to reconnoiter the Trade Federation's blockade of the system, before Valorum sent Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi to Naboo. (SON)

T'ar Ta'avon  
this Chadra-Fan ran a starship repair facility on the outskirts of Romar's primary spaceport. Known as an outlaw tech, most spacers weren't sure if the cheerful little alien was an engineering genius or a crazed tinkerer. He could fix most things, but often found other things to "improve" while he was working. (PSG)

this planet was the shipping and communications hub of the Tarabba Sector, during the last decades of the Old Republic. (X3)
Tarados Gon  
this Klatooinan Jedi Knight was one of the handful of Jedi who survived the initial stages of the Battle of Geonosis. Tarados Gon was part of the small group who were surrounded by the droid armies of Count Dooku and his Separatists, just before the Army of the Republic arrived on Geonosis. Note that Inside the Worlds of Star Wars: Episode II indicates that Tarados Gon died during the Battle of Geonosis, when the LAAT/I carrying him was shot down and crashed. (OWS, IWE2)
Taraloon  
located in the Quintar Nebula, Taraloon is a dry, rocky world riddled with caves and caverns. It was discovered by Tron Nixx, who was working for the pirate Drek Drednar. The pirates established their base of operations on the planet. The day on Taraloon lasts 18 standard hours, and the year lasts 285 local days. (SWJ5)
Tarana-te'sath  
this was the term used by the Tarasin race to describe their world in the aftermath of a great cataclysm. Many Tarasin elders believed that the tarana-te'sath was going to occur sometime during the Clone Wars. The actions of a single Human Jedi Knight, who had intimate knowledge of the Tarasin, convinced even Mother Dariana that the threat of the tarana-te'sath was real. This Jedi confirmed Dariana's fears about Cularin's survival in the wake of the Clone Wars, and provided the impetus she needed to invoke the shorda'ki. (LFCW)
Taranu, Rif  
this man was a noted smuggler, who often carried cargoes for the Alliance during the height of the Galactic Civil War. He used his converted Corellian Space Cruiser, the Dead Reckoning to run weapons and supplies to Alliance worlds on the fringes of the galaxy. After the Battle of Endor, Taranu went back to smuggling full-time for profit. (SOG)
Tarascii Explosives  
this small weapons manufacturer specialized in the design of thermal detonators. Tarascii was a subsidiary of BlasTech, and was one of the few corporations which were licensed by the Empire to manufacture baradium. (ROE)
Tarasin  
this species of sentient, quilled reptiloids was native to the planet Cularin. Believed to be descended from the same stock as the kilassin, the Tarasin evolved into social groups and eventually gained sentience. These beings were incredibly attuned to the Force, and their society was based on a symbiotic relationship with their planet. Their religion was also based on the worship of nature, and any actions made against the natural order of the planet were punished. Because of their relationship with the planet, most Tarasin will only travel off-planet for very short periods of time, and only for a short distance. When logging corporations began to discover the exotic trees of Cularin, the Tarasin were driven to fight off several attempts to clear a forest. The skin of a Tarasin was unusual in that it could change its coloration in response to the Tarasin's mood, and also as a form of communication. A more complex form of communication is achieved by simply changing the colors of the fingers on one hand, rather than openly expressing oneself by changing their body color. Naturally, a Tarasin is the light green color of the horonna plant's leaves. White skintone indicated joy, while black signified the end of a conversation. Orange skintone, when similar to that of the gargrell flower, indicated that the Tarasin was angry or irritated, depending on the intensity of the coloration. When a Tarasin changed its skin color to purple - a color which didn't naturally exist in the ecosystem of Cularin - it was often done in one's home, and indicated amusement. Yellow, like the vine of the arrgrar, indicated illness in an individual, while blue indicated a level of respect or deference on the part of the speaker. Among the distinguishing parts of the Tarasin form were the kampo, the Tarasin name for their head-fan, and the sa'tosin, the quills which grew from the backs of their forearms. (LFC, LFCW)
Tarasin Revolt  
this bloody struggle between the Tarasin, native to the planet Cularin, and the offworlders who traveled to the planet to harvest ch'hala wood, developed shortly after the Tarasin declared the ch'hala tree to be sacred to their religion. The Tarasin began to prohibit the harvesting of ch'hala trees for wood, despite the efforts of several corporations which had set up logging operations on Cularin. When the Trade Federation began to bring in armed guards to protect their logging operations, the Tarasin responded by attacking the loggers and blocking access to the forests. The violence only escalated when Tarasin tribes across the planet joined in the blockade. The Jedi Knights were eventually called in to mediate the situation, but at first refused to intervene. However, as the violence escalated, the Jedi could no longer sit back and watch. Two counselors were dispatched to the Cularin System. In what became known as the Cularin Compact, the Jedi outlined the rights of the Tarasin people to hold the trees sacred. The Compact also noted that outside logging interests had been previously allowed under Tarasin religion. After six months of negotiation, the Compact described the sharply curtailed logging activities which would be allowed on Cularin, thereby satisfying the Tarasin's demands and allowing logging to continue. A peace between the Tarasin and the offworlders eventually took hold. (LFC)
Tarasinese  
this was the native language of the Tarasin people of Cularin. (LFC)
Tarassi  
this barren ball of rock was the second planet of the Adega System. It was orbited by a single moon. (GORW)
Tarastra  
this gas giant was the fifth planet of the Eriadu System, located in the Outer Rim Territories. It was orbited by a group of seven moons. (GORW)
Taratan  
this Kubaz was born on the planet Morning's Bell. It was believed he was captured by the Yevetha when the reptilian race initiated its Great Purge, and held on the Super-class Star Destroyer Pride of Yevetha as a hedge against reprisal by the New Republic. In reality, Taratan and many others had fled Yevethan capture on the Star Morning while Enara maintained an illusion which made the Yevetha believe he was still in the Star Destroyer's holds. (TT)
Taray  
this Nothoiin male was one of just a handful of non-humans ever to work in Cloud City's Wing Guard during the height of the New Order. Originally a native of the Kaniti province on Bavva, Taray grew up in a lawless environment that gave him the resolve to become a police officer. At Bespin, Taray held the rank of Sergeant, and was not above breaking the very laws he was charged with enforcing, so long as he ensured that the spirit of the law was upheld. Taray was also loyal to Lando Calrissian, and often cited individuals for marginal crimes if they spoke ill of the Baron-Administrator. (WOA34)
Tarc  
this race of carnivorous crustaceans was native to the planet Hjaff. They were believed to have evolved from a race of sea-dwelling crustaceans, but were forced to live on dry land over time. The average Tarc was bipedal, standing on two legs and having four arms. The upper pair of arms had dextrous hands, while the lower pair had huge claws for fighting. They stood about two meters tall, but their exoskeleton and their musculature made them extremely large. They lacked lips, teeth, and tongues, but their mouths were filled with small, hollow spikes which were used to inject an acidic saliva into their food. Primary digestion began in the mouth, and the spikes could then be used to shred their food into smaller pieces for swallowing. Tarcs ate primarily the mollusks and other small creatures which lived in the deserts of Hjaff. As a race, the Tarcs were not necessarily violent, but they maintain a zero-tolerance stance with other races. They colonized much of the space around Hjaff, and protected their worlds with a navy known as the Ivlacav Gourn. Tarcs were not allowed to leave their native system, and it was a crime to be caught outside their home without permission. (AE)
Tarc  
this was the alias given to the young boy, Dab Hantaq, by Viqi Shesh, during their attempt to escape from Coruscant aboard the Millennium Falcon. Senator Shesh, under the guise of the refugee Welda, claimed that Tarc was the orphaned son of Ran Kether. Their ruse was discovered by the combat droid YVH 1-507A, which detected that Senator Shesh was using an ooglith masquer to alter her appearance. Tarc followed Han Solo and his wife, Leia Organa Solo, to the based on Borleias after Coruscant was lost to the Yuuzhan Vong, trying to regain a measure of respectability with the New Republic. He renounced his old name and simply went by Tarc, and eventually made friends with Tam Elgrin. (SBS, EL1, EL2)
Tardi  
this man, the Alliance's Minster of Finance and a Viscount by title, accompanied Leia Organa to Aargau, shortly after the Battle of Hoth. The Alliance hoped to acquire funding for a new squadron of X-Wing starfighters, and believed that Tardi was the only member of the Alliance with the knowledge of banking protocol to successfully complete such a transaction with the Bank of Aargau. They planned to use the Crown Jewels of Alderaan as their collateral, knowing that a loan would be granted almost immediately. Unknown to the rest of the galaxy, however, Tardi had actually died several months earlier. Alliance technicians created an android duplicate, knowing that it could pass through Aargauun customs without a problem. The tricky part would be leaving Aargau, when it was discovered that Tardi was actually a droid. For this reason, Leia schemed to have Darth Vader - who was on Aargau to stop the loan - "kill" Tardi in a fight. Vader, however, had secretly turned the tables on Leia. Viscount Tardi's personal doctor was actually an Imperial spy, and relayed information of his death to Vader. After learning that she planned to use the jewels as collateral, Vader bribed the Aargauun officials into allowing him to acquire them. He then went out of his way to explain this to Leia, after disabling the Tardi droid, so that she could not stop him from taking them without canceling the loan for the X-Wings. (MC48)
Tardon Golor  
this male Twi'lek was known as a starship thief of some renown, during the early years of the New Republic. He even stole B-Wing and X-Wing fighters from the New Republic, and sold them to the highest bidders. (WBC)
Ta-Ree  
this was the name given to the Force-like energy which permeated the planet Kathol and much of Kathol Sector. Formed when the concentrated life-energies of the ancient Kathol - trapped in the Lifewell in the wake of the Rift Disaster - twisted the very essense of the Force, the Ta-Ree gave beings on Kathol unusual powers, and amplified the effects of the Force in beings from the rest of the galaxy. However, Ta-Ree powers were only usable on Kathol, as the energy of the Lifewell was focused there. The name "Ta-Ree" is a word which meant "spirit energy" among the various species which lived on the planet Kathol. When the Kathol that were trapped in the Lifewell sensed that beings from other races - mainly the crew of the FarStar - were using Ta-Ree powers, the Kathol began to manipulate the Ta-Ree energy to make it unusable to beings who were not native to Kathol. (E)

this vindictive Ewok served as Jae Juun's first mate aboard the XR808g during the years following the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. (DN1)
Tarfful  
this dark-furred Wookiee warrior was one of the thousands who defended their homeworld during the last months of the Clone Wars. For Tarfful it was personal, since much of the fighting took place in Kachirho, where he served as the city's leader. During the war, Tarfful was captured by Separatist-funded Trandoshan slavers, but was later rescued by the Delta Squad of clone commandos. In the wake of the First Battle of Coruscant, Tarfful traveled to Coruscant to accept the assistance of the Grand Army of the Republic, and he and Chewbacca were glad to have the support of Jedi Master Yoda and his clone troops, led by Commander Gree. However, after Chancellor Palpatine revealed that he was actually Darth Sidious, the Wookiees found themselves the targets rather than the allies. Although Chewbacca managed to gather up Master Yoda and flee, Tarfful was caught in the crossfire and was believed to have been killed. This was all a ruse, meant to cover the escape of Master Yoda and Chewbacca, while allowing the Wookiees time to ambush their pursuers. Tarfful then helped Yoda reach an emergency escape craft, while barking orders to his fellow Wookiees to eliminate the remaining clones. Tarfful was portrayed by Michael Kingma in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith. (OWS, IS3, VD3, SWDB)

Target Drone  
this small device was used by starfighter pilots to hone their dogfighting skills. (CSWEA)
Target Star System  
this was the name given to the simplest of hyperspace navigational computer systems. It used basic algorithms to plot a straight-line course from a starship's current location to its destination. This destination was denoted as the "target star". Add-on modules provided the target Star System with additional sophistication, allowing a pilot to account for known gravity shadows and mass disturbances. (PM11)
Target-Aggressor Attack Resolution Software  
known as TAARS for short, this starfighter training software allowed training squadrons to document shots taken, hits, and kills without causing real damage to the starfighters themselves. The software interfaces with the ship's targetting computer, telling the pilot when he is hit and when he is killed. (XWN)

Tarhassan  
this planet, the homeworld of the Tarhassan race, seceded from the Old Republic during the height of the Clone Wars, despite its previous membership within the Republic. The secession was something of a surprise to the Republic, especially the sudden disappearance of Intelligence agent Edbit Teeks. (SWI73)
Tarhassan  
this was the name given to the human population which was native to the planet Tarhassan. As a people, the Tarhassans were fond of bright colors and lights, as reflected in their clothing and cityscapes. Note that Star Wars Insider, issue 73, also describes these people as Tarhassians. (SWI73)
Tarhassan Planetary Security  
also known as PlanSec, this was the primary police force that protected the planet Tarhassan during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. When the Tarhassan govnerment allied itself with the Confederacy of Independent Systems, PlanSec quickly adopted the tenents and mindset of the Separatists, and began cracking down on possible Republic sympathizers. It was believed that PlanSec was behind the abduction of Edbit Teeks, shortly after the Battle of Geonosis. (SWI73)
Tarhassian  
this was another name for the human population of the planet Tarhassan. (SWI73)
Tarheel, Cinda  
this balck-haired woman served the Alliance at the base on the planet Arbra, during the months following the Battle of Hoth. She was part of a team, along with Luke Skywalker and Berl, that was dispatched to Serphidi to make contact with the native Serps. Captain Tarheel's X-Wing fighter was shot down over Serphidi by Imperial TIE Fighters when they entered the system, and she was forced to crash-land her ship on the surface. Only years of experienced helped her make the landing successfully. However, as soon as Luke and Berl arrived to help, they were set upon by a group of armored Serps. Berl was shot and killed, and Cinda was wounded and taken prisoner. She was forced to be one of King S'Shah's slave girls, until the Serp King revealed that she was going to be the main course at a dinner in his honor. She briefly escaped, but was shortly captured and subdued. She was to be cooked at the dinner following one of S'Shah's doom-jousts, but Luke managed to defeat the King, with some help from Elglih. The elderly Serp freed Cinda, and agreed to support the Alliance. (MC64)

Taris  
this urban planet was located in the Outer Rim Territories. During the millennia before the Great Sith War, Taris' planetwide city was rivalled only by Coruscant itself in its beauty and grandeur. Over the centuries, though, much of the cityscape fell into disrepair and ruin. By the time of the Great Sith War, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, the cityscape was terrorized by swoop gangs and packs of rakghouls. Those natives with wealth and power escaped to the upper levels of the city, known as the Upper City, leaving the rest of the population to fester in the Lower City. In the fighting that occurred during the Sith War, Taris was eventually attacked and destroyed by the Sith. (SWI63, KOTOR, SWDB)

Tarkin  
this Imperial weapons project was developed in the Patriim System, in the wake of the destruction of the first Death Star during the Battle of Yavin. It combined the Death Star's offensive weaponry and ionic cannons with a new set of engines and defensive shield generators, reducing the number of support personnel needed operate the weapon. The designers also upgraded the ship's exhaust systems, eliminating the weakness of the Death Star. The Tarkin's main fuselage was based on the design of the Super-class Star Destroyer, but on a scale comparable to that of the Death Star. A team of Alliance agents, including Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa, managed to infiltrate the superweapon and destroy a main power generator, as well as reversing the polarization of its fire control mechanism. When Colonel Nord tried to fire the ionic cannon on the fleeing Alliance agents, the Tarkin fired inward on itself and exploded, killing all aboard and tearing itself apart. (EGC, LTA3, MC51)

When Leia Organa was stranded on the planet following her escape from Darth Vader, Leia was chosen as a servant by the Lady. Leia, in this position, helped smuggle the energy-giving moss off the planet. When Darth Vader himself came to Phelarion and confronted the Lady Tarkin about the smuggled moss, Leia realized that she had been using Lady Tarkin's own transponder to call the smugglers. She realized that she had to escape soon. Leia escaped from Lady Tarkin's service, and little is known of the fate of Lady Tarkin. (CSWEA, EGC)
Tarkin, Ranulph  
a member of the Tarkin family of Eriadu, Ranulph Tarkin was a Senator who styled himself as a General in the Old Republic armed forces during the years just prior to the Stark Hyperspace War. He was known as the leader of the faction known as the Militarists, and he continually addressed the Senate in an effort to form a strong Army and Navy. When his requests for military backing were denied, General Tarkin formed his own Navy, culling officers and ships from the ranks of the Republic's meager forces which were loyal to him. He offered to take this fleet and smash the negotiations which were being held between the Republic and the Stark Commerical Combine, an offer which Nute Gunray of the Trade Federation could not refuse. Gunray told Tarkin that the negotiations were taking place on Troiken, and Tarkin set out in the flagship Invincible to destroy Iaco Stark. Unfortunately, Stark had anticipated the military action, and placed a navigational computer virus in the memory banks of Tarkin's entire fleet. Many ships were destroyed or lost, but the Invincible arrived at Troiken. Its supporting fleet was decimated, and Stark's forces picking the fleet apart. Tarkin, however, refused to admit defeat. While he ordered his crew to abandon ship, Tarkin fled to his personal shuttle with his aide, Jace Dallin. Tarkin ordered his forces to regroup on Troiken, but they were badly outnumbered again by Stark's mercenaries. Tarkin railed against then-Senator Finis Valorum and the Jedi Knights who came to their aid, and his own troops began to question his leadership. Tarkin tried to trap Stark on his own, but was killed when he accidentally set off the explosives he meant to use against Stark. (SHW)
Tarkin, Rivoche

She was began to throw tantrums around her adopted parents, resentful of the fact that her father had been taken away from her. She was shipped off to a prep school on Claer, and began to hate her uncle and everything he stood for. After meeting Biggs Darklighter and learning of the Alliance, she began passing information to him in order to thwart Imperial operations. She continued to act as a deep-cover spy for the Alliance after the destruction of Alderaan, using her position as an Imperial socialite to gain access to secret information. She was caught on the planet Corulag and forced into an engagement to Vastin Caglio, shortly before the Battle of Hoth, but was eventually rescued by Cryle Cavv and Quillin Arkell. After the Battle of Endor and the downfall of the Empire, Rivoche became a member of the New Republic's historical branch. She reported on the fighting that occurred between the New Republic and the remnants of the Empire on Coruscant. She was stationed on the Emancipator when it was disabled. (CRO, DESB, SWJ12)
Tarkin, Wilhuff  
although his origins and his Imperial service records are sparse, Tarkin had a noticeable career with the Imperial Navy before proposing the infamous "Rule by Fear" doctrine to Emperor Palpatine. Tarkin was born some thirty years before the Battle of Naboo. Early in his career, Tarkin was the Lieutenant Governor of the planet Eriadu before becoming a Commander in the Republic Outland Regions Security Force, where he first exerted his power by coercing Raith Sienar into an attempt to take control of the planet Zonama Sekot. Despite the setbacks suffered there, Tarkin nevertheless manipulated events in his favor, and gained considerable status in the eyes of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. He was elevated to the position of Governor during the height of the Clone Wars, serving Palpatine on Coruscant as the battle raged across the galaxy. His rise to power within the Imperial military was equally smooth; he was promoted from Captain to Moff for taking the initiative and commanding the Ghorman Massacre. It was during this time that he noticed the talents of Daala on Carida, and brought her along with him when he became Grand Moff of the Outer Rim Territories. The two became intimate confidantes, sharing their dreams for rulership along with their passion for each other, even though Tarkin had a wife back on Phelarion. Tarkin's innate evil and cunning was evident in his establishment of the Maw Installation, a secret laboratory dedicated to the creation of the superweapons which would make governing the Empire easier. When the Empire tried to enslave the Mon Calamari, Tarkin took centerstage in the attack. It was at this time that Tarkin obtained Ackbar as his personal slave. There are also rumors that Tarkin was given Ackbar as a slave by an opportunistic subordinate. Ackbar used this period to absorb all that he could about Imperial fleet strengths and weaknesses, and he also learned a great deal about Tarkin's personality. He also learned a great deal about the first Death Star in this way. When the Alliance tried to assassinate Tarkin, they were thwarted by Imperial ships, but managed to rescue Ackbar. Tarkin's major contribution to the Emperor's cause was the Death Star, which he used to rule the Outer Rim for a brief period. Palpatine assigned Tarkin to the Death Star, hoping to quell the various rebellions that occurred in the Outer Rim. However, Tarkin also had a hidden objective in creating the Death Star. Once the battle station was operational, he'd hoped to use it against Palpatine, in an attempt to take control of the galaxy for himself. Palpatine foresaw some of Tarkin's motives, and assigned Wullf Yularen as Tarkin's assistant. Tarkin's personal ambitions and self-confidence got the best of his, though, during the Battle of Yavin. Tarkin refused to evacuate the station, even with the knowledge that the Alliance had found a flaw to exploit. Tarkin Tarkin was killed when the Death Star was destroyed even as he gave the command to fire on the Massassi base. The Empire released an official death notice for Tarkin, but it claimed that he died in a shuttle crash at the Tallaan Shipyards. Tarkin was portrayed by Peter Cushing in Star Wars: A New Hope, by Wayne Pygram in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, and by Keene Curtis for the Star Wars Radio Drama on National Public Radio.

Tarkosa was also one of the few remaining Survivors, having been an original member of the Outbound Flight team. Like many others among the Survivors, Tarkosa was angry at the Jedi Knights for not providing better protection against their attackers. When a Chiss-led expedition located the remains of Outbound Flight, Tarkosa called for the slow execution of every being assocaited with the original attack. His vengeance went unfufilled, as most of the Chiss who took part in the attack had since died. After the Vagaari threat was eliminated, Tarkosa grudgingly agreed to accompany the Outbound Flight Colony to Nirauan, staying as far away from the New Republic as they could. (SQ)

this student of the Force was among the many young children who were being trained at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant when the Battle of Naboo occurred. Unfortunately, Rhad died shortly afterward. (YDR)
Tarn, Rhad  
this young man was one of the many Jedi Knights who felt that the Jedi Order was becoming too militaristic during the early years of the Clone Wars. He left the Order to follow his teacher, Sora Bulq, to Ruul in protest of the Jedi's participation in the war. Rhad was a hot-tempered youth who openly declared that the Jedi should have joined the Separatists, since the Old Republic had become too corrupt and self-centered. When Asajj Ventress killed Mira, and said that she had been hired by Mace Windu himself to destroy Master Bulq, Rhad immediately demanded that Windu be held accountable for her death. He set out to capture both Windu and Ventress, but was intercepted by Ventress near her ship. In a brief lightsaber duel, Ventress nearly succeeded in drawing Rhad over to the Dark Side of the Force. His determination to prove himself flared into anger at the Jedi Order for holding him back, and he openly opposed the efforts of Jeisel and K'kruhk to return him to their cause. In a heated lightsaber battle, Tarn nearly killed Jeisel, but she managed to get her own lightsaber between them as he charged. Tarn was killed instantly. (OWS, J1)

Tarnab  
this humanoid alien race was characterized by its triangular skull. At the lower point was the tapir-like snout; at the temples were four short horns. The mysterious blue eyes of the Tarnab people gave them a fearsome appearance, and their scraggly hair only added to the apparent danger. (OWS)
Tarnese Bleyd  
this male Sakiyan served the Old Republic as an Admiral during the Clone Wars, commanding a MedStar ship that supplied the various Rimsoo units of the planet Drongar. It was in this position that Bleyd encountered Filba the Hutt, and the pair quickly began forming plans to make a profit from the sale of processed bota. Bleyd himself was skilled hunter of rare skill who was motivated more by a need to avenge his family name than by any true loyalty to the Republic. He believed that he deserved a much better posting that Drongar, and would have preferred somewhere at the heart of the fighting, where he could have used his innate skills to obtain a much higher-visibility position. The criminal aspect of his demeanor was not unusual, given that his father, Tarnese Lyanne, had become involved with Shiltu the Hutt. It was Shiltu's double-crossing that led to Clan Tarnese's downfall, ultimately forcing Bleyd to enlist with the Republic military in order to make ends meet. When, in Bleyd's opinion, the Republic failed to recognize his talents, he decided to make himself rich at the Republic's expense. He and Filba secretly made contact with the Black Sun organization, and arranged for a series of regular, though small, shipments of bota to be made available for sale. Filba's plans to freeze the processed bota in carbonite allowed them to ship the bota across the galaxy, making it more profitable for all. Bleyd, however, wasn't satisfied with the cut he was getting from Black Sun, and planned to set out on his own. These plans were thwarted, however, after Filba became equally as greedy, and tried to force Black Sun to pay a higher price for the bota. Bleyd confronted Filba shortly after the Hutt was poisoned by Kaird, and Filba died in his grasp. Black Sun sent an agent to investigate, and Bleyd promptly murdered him rather than giving in to their demands. This forced Kaird into action, and the Nediji confronted Bleyd about his actions. Bleyd, ever the hunter, accepted Kaird's challenge, and the two squared off in a knife duel. The duel appeared to be a stalemate until Kaird threw his knife at Bleyd. Bleyd deflected the knife with his arm, laughing at the Nediji's apparent foolishness. Unknown to Bleyd, however, was that the knife had been coated with dendriton toxin, which entered his system through the wound. Within minutes, Bleyd would have died from the toxin, although Kaird spared him any agony by cutting his throat before the toxin took effect. (MBS)
Tarnese Lyanne  
this male Sakiyan, the father of Tarnese Bleyd, had made several hefty investments in black market and smuggling operations during the decades leading up to the Battle of Naboo. However, he was double-crossed by Shiltu the Hutt, and he lost everything the Tarnese clan had owned. Clan Tarnese was disgraced, and Tarnese Lyanne's children were forced to look for work away from Sakiya. (MBS)

Tarong  
an avian race evolved from the continual cross-breeding of two avian species once native to the Epidimi System. When the Old Republic discovered the system, they found the two species - living on the planets Iri and Disim - were genetically similar, and members from both were transported to the other planet. This simple experiment, over the millenia, has led the to extinction of the two original species and the 'birth' of the Tarong race. The average Tarong is a massive, winged quadriped, with a wingspan averaging around twenty meters. They have tough, leathery skin and long, hooked beaks. Young Tarongs are lighter in color than their older counterparts. Their front feet are almost as useful as hands, and are used to manipulate objects. Their rear feet are incredibly strong, and used for climbing and grasping. They are highly intelligent, and can master languages quickly. They are also very curious and friendly, wanting to learn everything about the beings they meet and considering them friends until they do something to harm the Tarong or its family. If the stranger acts violently, the Tarong will often capture them and carry them off to some remote location to die of exposure. Tarongs do not like physical violence, and will only hunt and kill for food. They live in tribes based on family relations, with the oldest member of the family in control of the tribe. They have a primitive technology of their own, but are extremely curious about the strange devices they found used by the rest of the galaxy. The more a device sparkles or blinks, the more attractive it is to a Tarong. (GG12)
Taroon  
this young Rutanian boy was King Frane's second son, being just a year younger than his brother Leed. While Leed was away on Senali, Taroon was virtually ignored by his father, who failed to see that Taroon was growing into manhood with many of his father's traits. Chief among those traits was a short temper, and Taroon came to resent his father. When Frane called in Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi to mediate the dispute over Leed, Taroon was allowed to accompany the Jedi to Senali. In a bold move to gain his father's attention, Taroon arranged to have Leed kidnapped, using Rutanian friends who were disguised as Senali to capture his brother. Taroon hoped to have Leed removed as heir-presumptive and take his place as the future king of Rutan. However, Taroon's plans were discovered by the Jedi, who arranged a meeting with King Frane to sort the matter out. Once Frane realized that Leed had made his own decisions, and that Taroon was more than just a "second son," he softened his position. When Leed decided to remain on Rutan to assume his rightful position as heir, Taroon again became angry, and tried to sabotage his father's hunting dogs and frame Leed for the act. When he learned that Drenna had remained on Rutan and was part of the hunting party, Taroon helped the two Jedi destroy the sabotaged seeker droids and restore peace. King Frane was forced to agree that Taroon would make a better leader than Leed, and agreed to allow Leed to return to Senali, while helping Taroon learn everything about rulership on Rutan. Frane even suggested that Taroon consider Drenna for his Queen, after seeing the girl's tenacity and strength. (SP)

Tarpaulin Plant  
native to the planet Altor 14, these plants collect water by unique means. During the hot day, they appear to be large balls of green cloth. As needed, a number of broad leaves can be spread out to collect sunlight for photosynthesis. At night, the main ball of the planet unfolds to cover up to 1,000 square meters of ground. The plant simply allows moisture to condense on its leaves, funnelling it back to the center of the planet for storage. (GG4)
Tarpoon  
this heavy, long-shafted spear was a tradition Whiphid weapon. The tarpoon was tipped with a wicked, three-tined blade, and was attached to a length of syntherope. It could be thrown at a target, and the wielder could then retrieve their prey by haulig back on the rope. Many Whiphids have been dragged around by their preyfor several minutes before it tired, in an event which became known as "riding the prey." (SPG)

Drigor is distinguished by the cybernetic replacement in his left eye, the cause of which is related to his history with the Confederation. About ten years before the FarStar found him on Uukaablis, he had learned that the Confederation was growing clones of its employees with enhanced abilities. Much of this work was shrouded in heavy security, and was performed without the knowledge of the employees. When Tarrens tried to tell the other members of this, his Y-Wing was destroyed. His body was recovered and repaired by the scientists involved, and Tarrens was sentenced to death by the Confederation's leadership. It was then that he fled to Uukaablis. The silvery eye stared straight ahead, no matter what direction Tarrens was looking. Tarrens agreed to help the crew of the FarStar expose the Confederation and obtain the cure for the biological weapon that had been contracted by much of its crew, shortly after realizing that he himself was infected.

Tarris 800 Cables  
this line of mini-cables can be used in place of a hardware scomp link. Tarris 800 cables can be used to modify a blaster to fire twice with each pull of the trigger. By connecting the cable between the V-4 plug and the trigger adaptor, a feedback loop can be created to send two pulses to the apas connectors, thereby opening the Heter valve twice. (CFG)
Tarro  
this alien race originated in the Til system, on the planet Tililix. When the Til star exploded, the planet Tililix was destroyed. Only those Tarro off-planet at the time survived. An estimated 350 Tarro exist in the galaxy, all of them descendants of the Tarro who had survived the destruction of Tililix. The Tarro are a humanoid race characterized by their dark green skin and piercing yellow eyes. They have seven fingers on each hand, and are heavily muscled. They are formidable fighters and weapons-masters, and are known for their stubborn, independent natures. Little is known of their history and culture, given the cataclysmic reduction of their species. (GG12)

Tarturi, Berm  
this man was Andara's Senator to the Old Republic, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. Senator Tarturi struggled to maintain his position as the Andaran System's Senator, facing increasingly stronger opposition from Rana Halion and the populace of Ieria. He even made an enemy in Sano Sauro, when they argued vehemently for the rights to certain profitable trade routes. It was during this time that he spent more and more time on Coruscant, leaving his son Gillam to an education at the Leadership School. When Gillam disappeared, Senator Tarturi feared that he had been kidnapped as part of a plan to force Tarturi to recognize Ieria's independence. Senator Tarturi requested the assistance of the Jedi Knights in locating his son. (JQ5)
Tarturi, Gillam  
this young man was the son of Senator Berm Tarturi of Andara, and attended the Leadership School on Andara during the years following the Battle of Naboo. An only child, Gillam found himself alone after the death of his mother when he was twelve. With his father being called to Coruscant on politics, Gillam's only family was at the Leadership School. Five years after the Battle of Naboo, the sixteen-year-old Gillam suddenly disappeared from the school, prompting his father to request an investigation by the Jedi Knights. Obi-Wan Kenobi was appointed to lead the mission, and his Padawan Anakin Skywalker was enrolled in the Leadership School to locate Gillam's friends. Anakin discovered that Gillam was actually the leader of a small band of students who were working as mercenaries in neighboring systems, causing public unrest and forcing "oppressive" leaders to abdicate their rule. It was Gillam who formed the team and recruited its members, although Rolai Frac assumed the role of leader after Gillam's "kidnapping." When Rana Halion employed the young mercenaries to strafe an Andaran military landing platform, as part of a plan to force Berm Tarturi to negotiate, Gillam gladly accepted. Unknown to Halion, however, Gillam planned to use live fire in the mission, as way to have himself "killed." He planned to ensure that Anakin Skywalker was killed in the mission, damaging the body enough so that it could pass as Gillam. Gillam then put plans in place to pin the blame for his kidnapping and death on his own father, Berm Tarturi, to ensure that Berm was discredited and stripped of any power he held. When the plans were exposed by the Jedi Knights, Gillam and his entire team were expelled from the Leadership School and transported to Coruscant for questioning. (JQ5)

Tasar Crystals  
these colorful stones held religious meaning to the ancient Tasari people. These beautiful stones were formed in the cataclysmic meteor shower that nearly destroyed the planet Tasariq, and refined in the volcanic upheaval that continued for many decades. Ritual blood sacrifices were made to the crystals, in the hopes of unlocking their mystical potential. The Tasari also believed that these sacrifices would appease the dark gods who rained meteors down on the planet Tasariq, causing massive destruction and relegating the Tasari to a primitive existence. Modern Tasari have abandoned the practice of ritual sacrifice, but pockets of believers still exist in the power of the crystals. Tasar crystals are found in a variety of colors and patterns, and all are believed to have some form of magical or healing powers. They were valued throughout the galaxy, and many Tasari families sold their crystals in order to survive. (AE, SWJ15)
Tasari  
this species of hairless humanoids was native to the planet Tasariq. Their faces are bird-like in structure, with a beak-like nose and feathery crests on the back of their skulls. They can live to be 120 years of age, and were known to be inquisitive and minded. Many centuries ago, the Tasari had a flourishing society, until a meteor shower rained down from the skies and destroyed much of the planet's surface. The Tasari were forced to revert to a primitive existence, finding shelter in the craters formed by the meteor impacts, and many blood cults rose from the ashes. These cults enacted blood sacrifices to tasar crystals in order to appease the dark gods who destroyed the planet. Over the next several hundred years, these cults died out, but pockets of believers still exist. In general, Tasari were friendly and outgoing, with a curiosity and openmindedness that allowed them to accept their place in the galaxy and explore beyond their borders. During the New Order, the Tasari had developed an industrial society, but could use more modern technology with relative ease. (AE, SWJ15)
Tasari Crossbow  
his simple missile weapon was favored by the blood cults of the Tasari. Each of these crossbows was hand-built at the time when a yougn Tasari earned the right to become an adult. (SWJ15)
Tasariq  
this planet was the second planet in the Tasar System, and the homeworld of the Tasari race. Once a temperate world, Tasariq was bombarded many centuries before the Battle of Yavin by a meteor shower. The planet was pummeled, and much of its surface was destroyed. The resulting destruction of the surface created a large amount of chemicals in the atmosphere, rendering it barely breathable. Craters and gouges now dominate its landscape, but it was within these craters that breathable air was trapped, allowing the Tasari to build cities within the craters and survive the holocaust. In the midst of the destruction brought on by the meteors, the heat and volcanic activity combined to form Tasar Crystals out of the materials of the planet's crust. By the era of the Empire, Tasariq became known as the Planet of Crystal. (AE, SWJ15)
Tasariq City  
this was the largest settlement on the planet Tasariq. It was established by the Empire, when the planet was first explored. Its layout was in the form of concentric circles, with Circle Park in the center. The Park was surrounded by the Shopper's Round, the governmental and administrative circle, then the living circle. (AE, SWJ15)
Tasariq Rangers  
originally formed by Imperial Governor Dem Keval, this was a mercenary police force used to maintain control of the Tasar System during the Galactic Civil War. Governor Keval was given little in the way of resources to keep the system in line, so he hired a group of Iotran mercenaries to patrol the system. He named the group the Tasariq Rangers to give them a measure of legitimacy. (SWJ15)

Taselda  
this ageless woman was among the first Jedi to come to the planet Nam Chorios. She claimed to have been sent to the planet at the behest of her Jedi Master, but it is believed that she and Beldorion went to the planet in hopes of finding some gift that would allow them to more fully use the Force. She was appalled at the living conditions she found, and remained on the planet as something of a leader to the Oldtimers. She kept order in Hweg Shul some 200 years before Callista arrived. When the Hutt Beldorion came to Nam Chorios, Taselda recognized his failures with the Force, and tried to keep him from gaining power. However, the Hutt prevailed, and in the battle her lightsaber was lost. She sustained numerous injuries in the fight, and found herself unable to create another lightsaber. When Callista arrived on the planet, Taselda used her desire to regain the Force as a fulcrum, and manipulated Callista. She hoped to used Callista to recover her lost lightsaber from Beldorion, but the young woman was overcome by the Hutt's augmented power. Later, Taselda tried to ensnare Luke Skywalker the same way, but he defeated her. (POT)

Tatoo III  
this space station was erected in orbit near Tatooine, just after the colonization of the planet. It was built by the settlers of Tatooine, from metals and ores they were able eke out of the desert. It was destroyed shortly after completion when the Obvious Nirvana suddenly rushed at the station during docking and collided with it. An investigation was launched, and it was discovered that the native Tatooinian metals used to construct the station had unusual magnetic properties. Thus, when the Obvious Nirvana approached it, Tatoo III suddenly became a huge magnet. This change in polarity drew the Obvious Nirvana into the station. This one setback marked the beginning of the hardest years Tatooine had ever seen. (GG7)
Tatoo System  
this binary star system contained the planet Tatooine. (GG7, SOT)
Tatooine  
the primary planet in the Tatoo system, this desert world was located in the Arkanis Sector of the Outer Rim Territories near Piroket and Ryloth, some 43,000 light-years from the galactic core. It was close enough to a major hyperspace nexus to make it easy to get to such worlds as Coruscant and Corellia, but its environment made it one of the most inhosptiable places in the galaxy. The planet's twin suns mercilessly heat the planet, keeping the sodium-rich deserts alive, and a trio of moons encircles the planet. Note that several sources are unsure exactly how many moons Tatooine has. Some say that the planet has a single, natural satellite, while others indicate two or more. Originally discovered more than 5,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, Tatooine was colonized in two distinct waves. Much of the original colonization was unable to survive the harsh environment, and only the city of Anchorhead survived until the modern era. About 1,000 years before the rise of the Empire, the Old Republic declared the planet "nominally habitable," but it was nearly 900 years later that the planet was settled again. These modern settlers arrived to colonize this first world in what was then called the J11.9 system. They coined the name Tatooine from the Jawa name for the planet, Tah doo Een e. The settlers established strongholds on the planet, and many smugglers and criminals have set up operational bases in its wastelands. Corellia Engineering even tried to establish mining operations on the planet, but it proved to be unusually lacking in valuable ores. The settlers there are primarily moisture farmers, extracting what little water they can from the atmosphere for survival. Its location on the galactic fringes makes it a perfect base for smugglers, mercenaries, and bounty hunters. The planet, despite its hostile ecology, supports human life was well as the native races of Jawas, krayt dragons, and Tusken Raiders. The planet's remote location appealed to Owen Lars and his wife Beru, and they lived there with Luke Skywalker for many years. Tatooine's average day lasts 23 standard hours, and its year consumes 304 local days. Note that the Star Wars Journal: Anakin Skywalker claims Tatooine is located not only near several hyperspace routes, but also near other galaxies.

However, that was as far as the resemblance went. An extremely intelligent beast, the howler hunted alone and often preserved its prey by drying it in the arid desert environment. Whenever prey could not be found, the howler could dig up a preserved capture to sustain itself. Howlers were solitary creatures that were very rare, and many beings believed them to be nothing more than rumor or legend. (WOTC)

The system was overrun by the Empire, and the Jenets were enslaved to work in the mines to obtain ores. (GG4, SWJ10)
Tau Shel  
this was the name of a noted Kaminoan scientist. (UANT)
Tau/Zeiss

Taug, Brevis  
this man was arrested by Imperial Intelligence officers, after it was learned that he had been bankrolling several operations of the Thanda clan of Zygerian slavers, during the early years of the New Order. In exchange for a reduced sentence, Taug provided information about how he funneled credits into the Thanda's accounts. The Imperials managed to keep Taug's operations going until they also captured Atlee Thanda, effectively smashing one branch of the Zygerian Slavers Guild. (WOA26)
Tauk, Lemmet  
one of the Empire's most skilled and loyal soldiers, Tauk was among the top four members of the training facility on Yinchorr, in the same class as Carnor Jax and Kir Kanos. Tauk was a friend of Kanos', and they trained hard together in the hopes of one day serving the Emperor. At the completion of their training, Emperor Palpatine ordered Tauk and Kanos to battle each other to the death, in an effort to prove their loyalty. Both hesitated before Darth Vader forced them into the battle, which Kanos eventually won by running Tauk through with his sword. Kanos mourned for his friend, and earned a scar from the blade of Vader's lightsaber for his emotions. (CE)

Taun We  
this Kaminoan female was Project Coordinator working at the cloning factory in Tipoca City, on Kamino, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. As such, she was specifically trained to act as Prime Minister Lama Su's chief advisor. Among her duties, Taun We served as the Kaminoans' liaison to Jango Fett, the source of their clones. While most of the Kaminoans working on the clone army project regarded the clones as specimens or simply "output," Taun We felt some level of emotional attachment to the younger clones. Taun We had enough understanding of human emotion to provide the clone troopers with mental stability, despite their rapid growth acceleration and genetic manipulation. However, she was naοve in her relationship with offworlders, and readily agreed to introduce Obi-Wan Kenobi to Jango Fett. Although Kamino was devastated during the Clone Wars, Taun We survived, along with some portion of the genetic material harvested from Jango Fett. Shortly afterward, Taun We and Ko Sai revealed that it was Darth Tyranus - not Master Sifo-Dyas - who paid for the clones. When Boba Fett learned of this, he contracted Taun We to help grow replacement body parts for him, in order to keep his body whole despite the rigors of bounty hunting. Shortly before the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Taun We requested that Boba Fett go on one more hunt: to locate and destroy Fenn Shysa, the only surviving member of the attacks on Kamino. Although Fett was surprised to learn of Shysa's ties to the Mandalorians, he carried out Taun We's mission anyway. Taun We was voiced by Rena Owen in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones. (OWS, AOTCN, VD2, SWDB, SWI80, LEV, GORW)
Taung  
this ancient race controlled the planet Coruscant for many millennia, prior to the dawn of modern humans. They conquered the other peoples of the planet, including the Zhell, in a series of bloody conquests. They were known throughout history as the Dark Warriors, after a volcano erupted during their final battle with the Zhell. The ash from the explosion wiped out the Zhell city, and the Taung adopted the name Dha Werda Verda, or "The Warriors of the Shadow," when the ash cloud filled the skies for two years. (SES)
Taung Heights  
located on the planet Coruscant, this section of the planet-wide city was home to a large population of Aqualish during the last decades of the Old Republic. More than 145 million Aqualish lived there, until their homeworld of Ando seceded from the Republic. A great number of the Aqualish in the Taung Heights returned to Ando to support the planet's secession. (HNN4)
Tauntaun  
a cold-weather creature suitable for use as transportation, thereptomammals resembled a fur-covered iguana which runs on its hind legs and has curved, ram-like horns. Native to the planet Hoth, these creatures are often found in large herds, racing across the snowy plains on their large, three-toed feet. The four nostrils on the tauntaun's nose were uniquely chambered, warming each breath before it entered the lungs. They have strong, rough lips that allow them to scrape lichens and moss off exposed rocks for food. This is not their only source of food, for they have also been seen eating carrion and small rodents. They also have a unique elimination system, exuding oils and waste products through pores in their skin. This causes the tauntaun to eminate a distictive odor. They seek nocturnal shelter in caves and ice grottoes, since they cannot survive the harsh nighttime temperatures. The internal organs of the tauntaun were all packed tightly inside their skeletons behind layers of fat, thereby protected from the cold. They were used by the Alliance as mounts during their stay at Echo Base. To pass the time, Alliance soldiers often staged tauntaun rodeos, putting their mounts through various stunts and exercises while trying to create a comradery with the uncooperative beasts. The tauntaun has a unique, cold-resistant blood which allows it to survive on the Hoth tundra. There were at least fifteen species of tauntaun on Hoth, each having a distinct mix of reptilian and mammalian characteristics. The tauntaun, being one of the two primary creatures native to Hoth, is the favored source of food for the other, the Wampa ice creature. Female tauntauns gave birth to live young, and fed them with a form of milk they regurgitated from their stomachs. Males could also regurgitate this milk, since they used it to spit when annoyed or angered. (ESB, ISU, EGA, WSW)

He caught up with Slar-dan ti Gardi on Werncin 3, but was unable to bring the Twi'lek in. Gardi's partner, Borun Call, shot Nartal with a stun psitol, and the pair eventually sold Nartal into. (SWJ8)
Taurill  
these foot-long, semi-intelligent creatures have gray fur, two legs, and four supple arms. Each of their four hands is incredibly dextrous, as are their feet, giving them a simian appearance even with their spade-shaped tail. They have beedy eyes that allow the curious creatures to survey everything. Like some insect races, the taurill have a hive mind in which each individual was linked to all others in a collective consciousness. They were discovered in the Outer Rim, but the explorer and the xenobioligist who found them were killed by Durga the Hutt in an effort to keep their existence a secret. Durga the Hutt used used a number of them as workers, and brought them with him to Coruscant. After creating a diversion, three taurill infiltrated the Information Center and stole the plans to the Death Star. (DS, EGA)

Tav Breil'lya  
a cream-colored Bothan, and one of Borsk Fey'lya's top aides during the early years of the New Republic, Tav Breil'lya lacked the subtlety that Fey'lya had. This eventually cost the Bothans a measure of security during the time when Admiral Ackbar was under arrest for treason to the New Republic. Fey'lya had employed Breil'lya to be his emissary to Garm Bel Iblis' group of freedom fighters, but Breil'lya was tracked to one of their meetings by Han Solo and Lando Calrissian, who eventually persuaded Bel Iblis to rejoin the Republic. Breil'lya was a native of Kothlis, and wore his family's ornate crest on a chain around his neck. This necklace often gave his presence away, especially in public places, which was how Han and Lando recognized him on New Cov. (DFR, TLC, DFRSB)

this Dark Jedi rose to power during the early years of the New Republic, as one of the leaders of the Disciples of Ragnos. A former apprentice of Desann, Tavion managed to survive a battle with Kyle Katarn on Bespin. She escaped, but Desann was later killed in combat with Katarn on Yavin 4. Tavion took up her former master's torch, and hoped to revive the spirit of Marka Ragnos and use the ancient Sith's power to augment her own. She had taken one apprentice, the Twi'lek Alora, before capturing Rosh Penin and converting him to the Dark Side of the Force. Although Alora was killed in combat by Jaden Korr on Taspir III, Tavion continued to move toward her ultimate goal. When she was finally ready, after acquiring a great deal of Force energy to power the Scepter of Ragnos, she traveled to Korriban to complete her mission. On the remote world, she was confronted by Jaden Korr, and challenged the young Jedi Knight to a duel. She managed to transfer the power that was stored in the Scepter to the tomb of Marka Ragnos, and the spirit rose from the dead to take control of her body. Despite the additional power she gained from being on the planet, and the power she gained from Ragnos's spirit, Tavion was defeated in combat. In order to defeat Ragnos as well, Jaden had to kill Tavion, which drove Ragnos out of her body and left him vulnerable. (JK2, JKA)
Tavira  
this surname was common among human settlements found throughout in the galaxy. (GCG)
Tavira, Leonia  
this small woman had a very severe demeanor. She was married to Tharil Tavira, and her strong will allowed her to quickly fill his position when he passed away. There are some who believe she had him killed, in order to obtain the title of Moff. Still others believe she killed Tharil's first wife in order to marry him. Following Tharil's death, Tavira cultivated a relationship with Harran Estillo, hoping to use him as a way to gain control of the Priamsta and the People's Liberation Battalion. Their plans were foiled when it was revealed that Plourr was the true heir to the throne of Eiattu, and she returned to take control. Leonia fled with the Star Destroyer Invidious, and gathered the support of a pirate named Kavil. Tavira maintained her contacts on Eiattu. When Leia Organa traveled to Eiattu for a diplomatic mission, Tavira obtained information on her location from Baron Laabann, and had Leia kidnapped along with Tycho Celchu. Tavira believed that the New Republic would gladly pay for Leia's freedom, but she was unaware that her agent had actually captured Winter instead of Leia. After a brief stint with Kavil's Corsairs, and with help from Sate Pestage in escaping from Axxila, Tavira started her own pirate organization. She offered Pestage to Ysanne Isard, but Isard arranged to have Pestage stolen from Ciutric before Tavira could recover her reward. She provided the military support with the Invidious, but never actually did any pirating. Once the target was neutralized, she disappeared to her lair and started planning her next move. She collected fifty percent of all the loot stolen by the pirates, which helped fund her operations. She was the target of Rogue Squadron and the New Republic, shortly after the death of Emperor Palpatine's clone on Byss. Leonia was operating from a base on Suarbi 7/5, a moon known for the Jensaarai sect of Jedi. There, she killed the moon's Imperial governor, claimed to have removed the natives from Imperial control. She alo used her persuasive skills to coerce the Jensaarai and their leader, the Saarai-kaar into believing that they must kidnap Mirax Terrik in order to draw a being known as the Halcyon - Corran Horn, a member of Rogue Squadron - into a trap. She made them believe that killing the Halcyon would eliminate a dire threat to their homeworld anf their families. She continued to make her raids, destroying the Harmzuay and gaining more control over the Jensaarai. However, Corran's infiltration into the Khuiumin Survivors led to her downfall, as he used the persona of an "avenging Jedi" to break up the Invids stationed on Courkrus. Tavira became increasing unable to handle the situation when Corran and Luke Skywalker broke into her fortress on Suarbi 7/5 and rescued Mirax. She tried to wipe out all of Suarbi 7/5 in order to kill them, but her small fleet was attacked by the Backstab and the Errant Venture. Corran also used the Force to project a much larger fleet of ships arrayed against her, and Tavira fled into hyperspace. (XWWP, IJ, HXW, XWM, XWMR)
Tavira, Tharil  
this Imperial Grand Moff was dispatched to take control of Eiattu just before Uthorrferrel Cartha was unseated by the Priamsta. Although it was never proven, it was believed that his ambitious young wife, Leonia, killed him in order to obtain his position as Grand Moff. Tharil suffered a massive stroke which incapacitated him, and his allergy to bacta meant that he could not recover quickly. As soon as he regained the use of his hands, he shot himself with a blaster. (XWWP, IJ)

Tavvar Va'ran  
this Kubaz was considered the second-best Kubaz chef in the Empire, shortly after the Battle of Hoth. Tavvar was also a master at combining subtle poisons with his culinary creations, using nearly untraceable elements which reacted with the natural oils and spices in the meals to create poisonous substances which themselves were unidentifiable. This made him an invaluable employee of Prince Xizor and Black Sun. As the Master Chef at the Manarai Restaurant on Coruscant, he took pride in this description because the best chef was part of Emperor Palpatine's personal staff. (SESB)
Tavya-class Armored Picket  
this Hoersch-Kessel patrol ship was developed for the Old Republic during the height of the Clone Wars. Its mission profile was to use in scouting hyperspace exit points for military and diplomatic convoys, dropping out of hyperspace long enough to scan the location for Separatist ships. These ships were well-armed for their size, with a turret-mounted laser cannon and a missile launcher, and the Republic often installed an extra proton torpedo launcher underneath the fuselage for added security.

Unknown to Koong and his minions, the site on which the Citadel was built was one of Roon's greatest sources of Roonstones. When Imperial Admiral Screed reneged on a deal, Koong flew into a rage and fired his weapons on the Citadel, in an effort to trap Screed inside and kill him.

Where Rekkon proferred to act quietly and within the system, Tchaka was impulsive and outspoken. He began to speak out at campus rallies, and was soon a major thorn in the Authority's hide. When he suddenly disappeared, Rekkon began to suspect that Tchaka was incarcerated by the Authority. This was exactly the case, for Tchaka's orations had reached the ears of Security Viceprex Mirkovig Hirken, who had placed Tchaka on his "list" of candidates for imprisonment at Stars' End. With the help of Han Solo and Chewbacca, Rekkon was able to discover the location of Stars' End, but was killed by Torm before he could rescue his nephew.

this line of protocol droids was products by Cybot Galactica in the years prior to the Clone Wars. Very similar in appearance to the 3PO series, the TC series was humanoid in stature but often bronze or red in color. They were known for being unflappable and proper, a trait which was enhanced with each memory wipe. They were distinguished from the 3PO series of protocol droids by the use of TranLang III communications modules. (SW1, SWI71)

TDL Nanny Droid  
an advanced protocol droid produced by Industrial Automaton under the brand name X1-Lioness, the TDL was designed to serve as a nanny. It has four arms covered with synthetic flesh, and its shape has been rounded to make it less dangerous to children. It was equipped with an AA-1 VerboBrain and a TranLang III ommunications module for interaction with any number of sentient species. One of the main problems which plagued the TDL series of droids was that it was easily reprogrammed. Several reports came in about children repogramming them to allow later bedtimes and less restrictive boundaries. There were also rumors of corporate executives reprogramming TDL droid to be bodyguards and assassins, since they were comparatively cheaper than dedicated assassin droids. Note that The Essential Guide to Droids claims that the TDL was produced by Accutronics. (COTF, JASB, SWJ14, EGD)
TDL-3.5  
This nanny droid was purchased from an online catalog by Anakin Solo, using the ordering code Bantha-456. Young Anakin believed that the nanny droid would help C-3PO take better care of the Solo children. The officious TDL-3.5 tried to convince C-3PO that it was better suited to care for children, especially since C-3PO was a protocol droid. However, once Anakin's part in the purchase was revealed, C-3PO sent TDL-3.5 back to the warehouse. (TNR)

Te Gniev, Jal  
this Alliance starfighter pilot was a veteran of thirty-one missions and more than eighty kills, but was kept out of the Battle of Yavin by a case of the measles. Luke Skywalker flew his X-Wing during the battle, and Jal felt cheated out of his chance for glory every since. His feelings toward Luke bordered on hatred, and Jal stole an X-Wing in an effort to prove his own worth. In his haste, he crashed the fighter into a grove of trees, and was arrested by the Alliance's military police. General Dodonna offered him one option: travel to Dubrava and act as a recruiter. Jal took the position, if only to get away from Luke. While on Dubrava, Jal offended a young Dubravan named Bobek by tricking him into falling off a deck during a mock training exercise. He also told Nevana about Luke traveling to Jazbina, in a drunken fit of rage. She told Sarma of the information, and Sarma rounded up the local Imperial stormtroopers. When they tried to catch her and get more information on Skywalker's location, she confronted Jal about the information. Nevana was shot by a stormtrooper before she could say anything more, and Jal barely escaped when the stormtroopers set the bar on fire, but was apprehended by the Imperials. Bobek intervened, having purchased a blaster and vowing to kill Jal, but was shot by a stormtrooper. Jal felt that their deaths were his own fault, and fled Dubrava in an old X-Wing purchased from a Dubravan dealer. He hoped to get to Jazbina before the Empire, in order to warn Luke of the danger he'd caused. When he dropped out of hyperspace, Jal's ship collided with Vader's Star Destroyer, and Jal was forced to crash-land. However, he was able to discover Luke's location just before Darth Vader did, though he fled when Vader captured Luke and Syayna's rebels. Jal didn't run, though. Instead, he flew his starship into the belly of Vader's Star Destroyer and crashed it into the ship at full speed. The Star Destroyer exploded, and Vader's troops were stranded on the planet. (VQ)

this planet, one of the worlds of the Gree Enclave, is known for its large concentration of Gree textmasters. The planet is the location of the Great Library of Manuals, which contains vast amounts of information on Gree technology. However, the exact location of the planet is a well-guarded secret, and Te Hasa has become known as the "hidden world" of the Gree Enclave. Since the decline of Gree civilization, Te Hasa has become a storehouse for devices and technologies that they no longer understand or have forgotten how to use. It is a desert world, and the storehouses of devices are located beneath the many oases that dot the landscape. These storehouses are maintained by a close-knit community of Gree which are hoping to unlock the many secrets contained within the devices. A day on Te Hasa lasts about 29 standard hours, and its year encompasses 296 local days. (SWJ8)

this was the codename of the infiltration team headed by the Ho'Din scientist Meloque, which infiltrated the planet Caluula more than four years after the Yuuzhan Vong began their invasion of the galaxy. Meloque had the credentials of a scientist who had been studying the Nocturne of the Winged-Stars, allowing her to gain access to the planet. Along with her were Han and Leia Organa Solo, Kyp Durron, Judder Page, and Wraw. Their mission was simple: destroy the yammosk which had been installed on Caluula, in an effort to knock out the Yuuzan Vong's possible coordination of a massive assault on Calamari. Despite only seeing a single patrol andd just one surveillance biot, the events that occurred after their arrival led Team Meloque to believe that it was being led into a trap. This fear proved true when the Team was ambushed by four Slayers, who killed Sasso and Ferfer before incapacitating Han Solo and taking the survivors captive. Meloque was able to interpret for the captives, until Malik Carr arrived to personally take them into custody. Unfortunately for the Yuuzhan Vong, something about Caluula's environment caused them to weaken and die over a period of a few weeks. The process seemed to speed up as death grew nearer, as evidenced by the sudden death of Malik Carr, his guards and Slayers. Suddenly free, the Team rushed to figure out what was killing the Yuuzhan Vong and their bio-technology. Wraw was forced to reveal that his primary mission as part of Team Meloque was to verify the effectiveness of a new strain of the Alpha Red virus which was released on Caluula, to verify that it was still as potent as originally believed.

Shipping concerns were later added to the roster of the Union, helping to ensure that supply lines and distribution channels remained open. Led by Wat Tambor, the Techno Union's members produced some of the galaxy's most cutting-edge technologies during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. The Techno Union was also one of the loudest supporters of the Trade Federation, following on the Federation's coattails whenever legislation involving trade was mentioned in galactic politics. Using tactics developed by the Trade Federation, the Techno Union demanded the right to protect its various members from external attack, and was given license to develop a droid army to defend itself. This army was added to the growing forces of Count Dooku and the Separatists just before the Battle of Geonosis, when Wat Tambor agreed to join the Confederacy of Independent Systems. (COD, SWDB)

Teedio  
this unstable star formed the center of the Teedio System, which was noted as the location of Exis Station. Teedio had been stable for many millennia, but started to deteriorate during the last centuries of the Old Republic. As the star began to give off rare and unusual gases and elements, miners began taking over parts of Exis Station to serve as bases for their operations. Eventually, Teedio grew too dangerous, and the mining efforts were abandoned. Luke Skywalker and Tionne were later responsible for moving Exis Station to a safer orbit, keeping it away from Teedio and allowing parties to explore the station. At the start of the New Republic, Teedio belched solar flares and heavy radiation into space every nine years or so, giving exploration teams and investigators a chance to escape before subsequent flares created problems.

When Teedle realized that the force-dome that protected the Rimsoo Seven base required a specialized power unit, she found that her own YX-90 drive unit was compatible with that of the force-dome. Rather than see her patrons killed, Teedle volunteered to be deactivated, and donated the YX-90 to the technicians. (MJH)

Despite their appearance, teeks were semi-intelligent, and could communicate with other beings, albeit with great difficulty. The Ewoks avoided the teeks at all costs, considering them sure signs of trouble ahead. They were the packrats of the moon's forests, taking shiny trinkets and tokens and exchanging them for something of equal value. For many, the teek's idea of what was equal in value was often skewed. At the time of the Battle of Endor, there were very few teeks living in the forest. (BFE, ISU, SWDB)
Teek  
for lack of a better name, this was the name used by one of the Teeks on the Forest Moon of Endor.

this Old Republic Intelligence agent was dispatched top Tarhassan during the build-up to the Clone Wars, as the planetary government made rumblings about joining the Separatists. Just before the Battle of Geonosis, his partner retired, and his superiors decided not to provide a replacement. Thus, Teeks was on his own on Tarhassan when the Clone Wars began. Six days before the Tarhassan government opted to join the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Teeks disappeared. A mission team, gathered from untrained agents picked from various low-level Republic agencies, was put together to rescue him. Led by Cherek Tuhm, the team included Tinian Hanther, Livintius Sazet, Joram Kithe, and Mapper Gann. While Tuhm and his fellow administrators labored over plan details, Joram and Mapper simply went out and hunted Teeks down. They discovered that he had been abducted by Tarhassan Planetary Security while eating at Corgan's Gustatorium, and had not been betrayed by his lover, Zazana Renkel. The pair convinced their teammates to launch a daring rescue attempt, which succeeded in liberating Teeks from prison. His innocence and loyalty to the Republic remained in question, and Teeks was returned to Coruscant for debriefing. (SWI73)

During the Boonta Eve Classic race, Teemto was passed by nine-year-old Anakin Skywalker shortly before his own pod simply exploded. Teemto survived the blast, rolling out of it inside his wheel-shaped pod. He went on to place in the Vinta Harvest Classic race on Malastare shortly afterward, and actually won the Aleen Classic, but eventually gave up podracing altogether after several crashes cost him an arm and covered much of his body with scar tissue. He retired to Tatooine, and went to work as a mechanic for Ulda Banai at the Mos Espa Swoop Arena. Note that Star Wars Journal: Anakin Skywalker names this alien Teemto Pugales.

The Hutt used it to punish those beings that deserved a quicker death than the Sarlacc pit, allowing them to dream up images of fanged monsters before realizing their position. In fact, the Teeth of Tatooine are wind-blown chips of desert sandstone and silica. The being is tied to the valley floor just past dawn, with leather hides wrapped and tied around each limb. As the temperature rises, the winds pick up and the victim begins to sweat. The sweat loosens the leather briefly, giving the victim reason to struggle. However, the leather simply tightens as it rubs the victim's skin raw and bleeding. The valley is situated such that great gusts of wind rip through it, pushed by the intensely-changing temperatures. The winds pick up small flechettes of stone and propel them through the valley, but the weight of the stones keeps them low to the ground. The stones have been sharpened by scraping along other stones, and become tooth-like knives. The wind-driven stones flay the victim alive. (TBH)
Tee-tocky  
this was the Huttese word for "time." (GMR5)
Teeubo  
this was a common name given to Twi'lek females, and meant "treasure" in the Twi'leki language. (GCG)
Tee-ubo Doole  
this Twi'lek woman was the only non-human member of the ExGal-4 outpost on Belkadan at the time Yomin Carr arrived at the planet. She was strong-willed and stubborn, and was often forced to submit to the demands of Danni Quee. She was one of the many ExGal people who took recreational intoxicants to alleviate the boredom of listening for extra-galactic activity, a practice despised by Danni Quee. When their sensors noticed a huge storm brewing on the planet, she led a group out to scout the storm. However, they discovered the Belkadan had become an ecological wasteland, thanks to the dweebit beetles unleashed by Yomin Carr. Bendodi Ballow-Reese, a member of the search group, realized that they would never make it back to ExGal-4, and committed suicide so that his oxygen could be used by the remaining members. Soon, just Tee-ubo and Jerem Cadmir were left. Tee-ubo realized that both would never make it, and she gave Jerem her oxygen pack and allowed the noxious atmosphere to destroy her. (VP)
Teevan  
this humanoid race was native to the planet Teevan. Teevans were known for their incredible flexibility, which came from the fact that their limbs seemed to be made from rubber. Their skin and eyes had silvery coloration, and a Teevan could literally cross their legs several times over without injury. (JQ1)
Teevan  
this planet was the homeworld of the Teevan race. (JQ1)
Teeyr Verke  
this was the name of a noted Phindar individual. (UANT)
Teezl  
this unusual creature was believed to have been extinct by the time Emperor Palaptine rose to power. Known colloquially as a screamer, it was a natural hyperspace communications amplifier, and could communicate across the galaxy almost instantaneously with its counterparts or other machine-based hyperspace receivers. A teezl lacked a true form, resembling a large swirl of bluish light that dazzled the eyes and bewildered the mind.Initial study showed that the teezl was non-sentient, and lacked any kind of feelings or senses. A single, surviving teezl was discovered by the Empire, and Emperor Palpatine dispatched one of the largest Imperial fleets, under the command of Admiral Giel, to bring the teezl back to Coruscant. However, their mission was discovered by the Alliance, which managed to infiltrate Admiral Giel's fleet and destroy the teezl. (PH, MC61)
Tefau  
this planet is the homeworld of a tall, blue-skinned race of aliens. They have large, thin heads which are dominated by a pair of nasal slits in the center. A small mouth is located just below the nostrils. Their eyes bulge out from the disk-shaped head, which is ridged at the edges. (CCG9)
Teff  
this was the alias used by young Boba Fett, during his escape from Raxus Prime, shortly after the Battle of Geonosis. He used the Teff alias when he was rescued by a clone trooper which had arrived on the planet as part of an Old Republic task force searching for Count Dooku. (BF2)

this was the name of a noted Caamasi individual. (UANT)
Tegg  
this Ugnaught worked as a technician aboard the Esfandia Long-Range Communications Base, during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Unknown to his comrades, Tegg was also a member of the Peace Brigade. It was Tegg, not the Noghri Eniknar, who brought a villip into the base, allowing the Yuuzhan Vong to discover its location. Tegg was apprehended by Fan Gantree and Leia Organa Solo, and Leia used the Force to render Tegg unconscious before he could escape. (FH3)
Teggett  
this New Republic X-Wing pilot was assigned to the Mandjur during the Battle of N'zoth. He flew an X-Wing which was painted vivid red and recognizable by the entire crew.

this was one of the Nebulon-B frigates which were used by the Imperial Navy, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (XVT)
Teguta Lusat  
this was the largest of the cities found on Rafa IV, and was home to the planet's primary spaceport. Because of this, Teguta Lusat served as the planetary capital of Rafa IV, as well as the capital of the entire Rafa System. Almost like the native Toka, Teguta Lusat was a drab, soulless city. Lando Calrissian landed in the city during the early years of the New Order while attempting to acquire the droid Vuffi Raa, only to discover that he had picked up a number of pregnant mynocks while traveling through the Oseon System. This got him in trouble with the spaceport's Landing Control. (LCM)
Teguta Lusat Interstellar Spaceport  
this was the primary spaceport of the Rafa System, located in the city of Teguta Lusat, on the planet Rafa IV. (LCM)

Fitz Roi shot off his antique projectile pistols in this establishment, located in Recardeon, on Rimma. (SWJ3)
Tejha Larel  
this portrait of Lady Cjaalysce Beal was painted shortly before her dead. In the portrait, she appeared sad and withdrawn. History revealed that the painting was done shortly after her love, Iann Doaba, exiled himself into the open desert after killing a rival for her love. Cjaalysce only loved Iann, and fled into the desert to bring him back. She died in the desert, but only after locating Iann's possessions. The name of the portrait was an Old Corellian phrase which meant "undying love." (BSS)
Tejrivozs  
this barren world was the third and outermost planet in the Riflorii System. The environment on Tejrivozs was highly variable, and ranged from frozen to searing as it passed the three stars that formed the center of the system. Despite its unusual climates, Tejrivozs served as a haven for smugglers and gamblers, and was a noted source of information brokers. The orbital path of Tejrivozs was oval in shape, and gave the planet a local year that lasted some seventeen standard years. It brought the planet close to the Riflorii stars for a short time, before swinging the planet well out into space. (GMR4)
Tek  
this Jawa traveled the stars and landed on the planet Otunia, shortly before the Battle of Endor. Using his skills as a scavenger, Tek managed to survive in the deep desert, outside the view of Kabul Industries. He made a living helping the moisture farmers repair their equipment, but was forced into hiding when an ignorant farmer misused a piece of equipment Tek had repaired. It blew up, and so did the farmer, and a bounty was placed on Tek's head. Shortly after the Battle of Endor, Tek rescued Grissom and Arista Kabul from an attack by Arista's uncle, Seth. Grissom devised a plan to turn in Tek for the 12,000-credit bounty on his head, then Grissom and Arista blasted the little alien out of prison. Before leaving Otunia, Arista planned to meet with her Uncle Seth in order to remove the ankle restraint she was wearing. As payback for his murder of her father, Arista used the bounty money to purchase explosives. Employing Tek's knowledge of explosives and Grissom's knowledge of the mines, Arista placed bombs throughout the mines. She then confronted Seth, demanding that he remove the ankle bracelet that was keeping her tied to Otunia. As payback for the murder of her father, Arista then set off Tek's bombs, utterly destroying the mines and leaving Seth - and Kabul Industries - without anything. (T3)
Tek Swee  
literally meaning "head hitter", this was the Ewok name for a trap in which a heavy log was suspended on rope-like vines from a sturdy tree. When released, the log swung down and out from its holding position, crashing into anything in its path. The Ewoks originally developed the tek swee to ambush the Gorax, but pairs of tek swee were used with great success against Imperial AT-ST walkers during the Battle of Endor. (GMR9)
Tekar  
this sprawling meglopolis was the largest city found on the Derilyn, and was the site of Derilyn Space Central, the planet's central spaceport authority. (PG3, OE)

He was very good at his work, but preferred to work alone. He was given the command of the Atrivis Advancer for his scouting missions. (CRO)
Teklet  
this settlement, located on the planet Qiilura, was the site of a major depot and the only spaceport on the planet, during the last years of the Old Republic. The Separatist forces that took control of Qiilura used it as their primary export location for barq and kushayan grains, as well as military materiel. Much of the city, including the primary communications center, was destroyed by the clone commandos of Omega Squad, during their mission to capture Ovolot Qail Uthan and destroy her clone-killing nanovirus. (RCHC)
Tekli  
this Chadra-Fan was a student of the Force at Luke Skywalker's Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4, training under the tutelage of Cilghal during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Tekli assisted Cilghal on the Eclipse Project before joining the strike team which went to Myrkr to destroy the voxyn queen. She was one of the survivors of the mission to Myrkr, and returned to the planet Calamari to rejoin Cilghal after the loss of Coruscant to the Yuuzhan Vong. Later, when the Imperial Remnant was attacked and Bastion was destroyed, Tekli developed a deep friendship with Saba Sebatyne, who had discovered an ability to read a being's lifesigns through the Force. When Luke Skywalker launched a mission to locate the planet Zonama Sekot, Tekli was assigned to his task force as a healer and medic. Her skills were put to use in an unusual way almost as soon as the mission got started, when Tekli found herself struggling to keep Imperial Grand Admiral Gilad Pellaeon alive after the Jedi stumbled upon the Battle of Bastion. After the Yuuzhan Vong finally surrendered at Coruscant some five years after the invasion began, Tekli decided to stay on Zonama Sekot with Tahirir Veila, the Ferroans, and the Yuuzhan Vong. She hoped to learn more about the ways in which Yuuzhan Vong Shapers worked with various lifeforms, in an effort to discover new ways to help cure beings throughout the galaxy. Five years later, when UnuThul sent out his call for help, Tekli was among seven young Jedi who dropped whatever mission they were currently on and traveled to the Unknown Regions to answer the call. (BP, SBS, FH1, UF, DN1)
Teklos  
this is the civilian version of Nen-Carvon's heavy-duty mobile command base. It differed from the base military model in locomotion: the Teklos vehicle was equipped with repulsorlift engines, where the mobile command base had treads. However, despite its commercial goals, the Teklos vehicle found its way into the fleets of pirates and criminal organizations. Like the mobile command base, it measured 21.8 meters in length, and carried a crew of 5 and up to seven passengers. It was armed with a turret-mounted triple-laser cannon and a pair of concussion grenade launchers. (GG11)
Tekonite

Tel  
this small, white dwarf star was the central body of the Tel System, located in Brak Sector. The system was known as the Green System because it was actually a planetary nebula, and the star's light made the gases of the nebula appear to glow with a greenish light. (FBS)
Tel  
this was the name most often used to describe the planet Tel III. (FBS)
Tel Bollin  
this was considered the only true city found on the planet Endregaad, during the early years of the New Order, although Tel Bollin was really just a collection of small settlements and outposts. Like all other settlements on Endregaad, the constituent parts of Tel Bollin were located atop mesas and plateaus, and they were grouped together based on the fact that they shared the same bottomland formation. Located near the center of the city was a collection of pre-Republic ruins, but they were largely unexplored because of local legends that claimed banshees roamed the area and killed any beings they encountered. (TF)
Tel I  
this was the innermost planet of the Tel System, located in Brak Sector. It was a small ball of hot rock. (FBS)
Tel II  
this was the second planet of the Tel System, located in Brak Sector. It was a small ball of hot rock. (FBS)
Tel III  
this remote planet, located in Brak Sector, was the site of the Alliance's Oracle Base, which was established shortly before the Battle of Yavin. The planet itself was a ball of ash-covered rock which was crumbling to dust as it aged. Because of the planet's location within the planetary nebula, the skies of Tel III were greenish in color. (FBS)
Tel IV  
this planet was covered with dense rainforests. (COG)
Tel IV  
this frozen ball of rock was the fourth, and outermost, planet in the Tel System of Brak Sector. Note that this planet seems to be different than the Tel IV described in Creatures of the Galaxy. (FBS)
Tel Sorath  
this was a note Dashade individual from the ancient histories of the planet Urkupp. (UANT)
Tel, Rango  
a native of Sernpidal, Rango Tel made a name for himself in the circles of minor bounty hunters by stumbling upon his first bounty as the result of a bar brawl. Previously known as a small-time criminal, Tel took the money he earned from this bounty and set out to establish himself as a true bounty hunter. His inexperience showed almost immediately, after he tried to purchase a suit of Mandalorian armor for the job. He ended up buying a cobbled-together vacuum suit, unaware of the fact that he was being duped. The immense, cylindrical helmet soon earned him the nickname "Tank Head." A local crimelord on Sernpidal eventually hired Tel to assassinate Kam Nale, and the rookie bounty hunter set out to confront his quarry on Tatooine. Although he managed to corner Nale in a back alley, Tel was shot and killed by Nale, whose heavy blaster easily pierced Tel's inferior "body armor." (SWDB)

this was one of many settlements found on the planet Bakura. (EGP)
Telak, Kird  
this former Imperial scout served the Navy for six years before he became bored with his work. He fled Imperial service and, using the knowledge of trade routes and transportation schedules, became a pirate. The ability to ambush a ship and make off with its cargo came naturally to Telak, who was known to take a number of risks and still come out ahead. He continued to get bored, bu this only served to push him into more and more daring thefts. He is quite obvious in a crowd, with a crown of fuzzy black hair, expensive clothing which has been carefully aged, and a thin goatee and moustache. (TSK)
Telak's Terrors  
this pirate group, led by the charismatic Kird Telak, operated from a based in the underground caves of the planet Seltaya. The base itself is located about 100 meters below the surface of the planet, and is sensor- and enegry-shielded. No external armaments are employed by the pirates, since the only visible evidence of the base are the launch bay doors and the sensor arrays. (TSK)

this was the largest of the three moons which orbited the planet Goroth Prime. (GSE)
Telari, Coros  
this was the false ID of Pellas Agri, an agent of House Pelagia who worked as a troublemaker and spy for much of his life. His father had died in a House Mecetti prison, unjustly arrested for a crime he didn't commit. This left young Agri with a burning hatred of House Mecetti. He was attacked by a group of thugs from House Mecetti on Lamuir IV, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Telari had stolen a datafile from Mecetti, and was hoping to return it to his Pelagia masters. A team of Alliance agents, hoping to meet Trel Modetto aboard the Eternal Hope, were directed to the site of the attack by Janna Pallask. Their efforts in defeating the thugs saved Telari's life. He spent a great deal of time in a bacta, but owed a debt of gratitude to the Alliance agents. (TSIA)
Telatti  
this sweet, tasty fruit was grown on the planet Kattada. (SWEP)
Telbre, Evin  
this bounty hunter was a rival of the noted smuggler Balthazar Sim. During the height of the Galactic Civil War, Telbre discovered Sim had been involved in trying to cover up the effects of a stolen shipment of the drug platykona-zemlo-mobris, known on the street as "pleaz-mo". Telbre decided that it was time to shut down Sim's operation once and for all, and set out to bring him to justice. Sim, several years before, had been implicated in covering up a conspiracy on the planet Coruscant by causing an explosion which destroyed the evidence. The explosion also killed one of Telbre's friends, and Telbre set out to avenge the friend's death. Although he never found out what the actual conspiracy was, he continued to track down Sim. Telbre also worked on his own legitimate shipping business, which served as a front which he used to help transport slaves who escaped from Hutt Space. Telbre eventually tracked Sim to Aucellis Park on Keriba VI, using the transmission from a brooch Sim had once stolen. After a wild chase beneath the Cavern's Delight attraction, Telbre and the mercenaries he hired met up with Sim and his commander, Hoogi Grym. Grym managed to escape, leaving Sim to be captured. (WOA27)
TelBrinTel  
this droid manufacturer produced a variety of scientific droids for civilian and military use. (SWJ13)
TelBrinTel Science Research Droid  
this boxy, humanoid droid was developed by TelBrinTel after the Empire commissioned the corporation to create a weapons and armor research automaton. The SRD was given a monocular eyepiece which contained a powerful molecular microscope, and its endosystem was designed to accept a wide variety of dockable implements. For the most part, the SRD was delivered to Imperial research facilities shortly after the Battle of Hoth. A few individuals, such as the infamous droid known as Geth, were stolen by the Alliance. (SWJ10)
Telbun  
this Kuati term describes a group of selected middle class individuals used as breeders for the Kuati upper classes. Certain members of middle class families are chosen to begin training to be a telbun, which involves rigorous screening and intense education in a wide variety of subjects. When an upper class noble chooses a telbun - there are male and female telbun - the individual becomes the property of the upper class. The telbun's family is well-compensated, but cannot claim any of the upper classes' riches. The child of the union then becomes the heir to the upper class riches. The goal of this arrangement was to remove emotion from the creation of a child, while at the same time eliminating the senseless joining of upper class families through marriage. The telbun is subordinate to its mate, and is made to wear heavy red and purple robes that hide their bodies from the public eye. They must wear tall, starched collars and high, cylindrical hats. (WG)

Teleq  
this bounty hunter was part of a group of hunters hired by Granta Omega to capture Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Wren Honoran on Ragoon-6, some five years after the Battle of Naboo. Teleq was known among other bounty hunters for his skilled use of technology in locating and capturing his targets. Teleq himself was a humanoid being with long limbs and hooked fingers and toes, giving him incredible mobility in trees and complex structures. It was Teleq who first captured Wren Honoran, using the Jedi pilot as bait to capture Obi-Wan and Anakin. (JQ2)

a depressant drug. (COJ)
Telfrey  
this planet, located in the Iskalon system, was depopulated by the Empire in order to secure the planet for their own usage, after it was discovered that rebellious individuals were stirring up the population. The survivors of the mass killings, both human and Telfreyan, eventually joined the Alliance, as the surface of their homeworld was reduced to molten slag by an Imperial bombardment. Historians later discovered that the Imperial attack on Telfrey was an act of retribution for the actions of Tay Vanis and Yom Argo on Iskalon. (LTA6, MC74, GMR1)
Telfreyan  
this was the primary, sentient race which was native to the planet Telfrey. Like their human neighbors, the Telfreyans were forced to flee the planet when the Empire subjugated the world. The Telfreyans were a race of green-skinned amphibians, with fin-like ears and a thick spray of bone sprouting from their foreheads. (MC74)
Telgordo Travel  
this passenger transport corporation provided luxury and standard-class tranportation for the inhabitants of Trax Sector, during the Galactic Civil War. (GMK)
Telgordo's Pride  
this Telgordo Travel starliner was based out Bundim, and made regular runs in Trax Sector during the Galactic Civil War. The team of Alliance agents investigating the construction of an Imperial supply depot in the Bissillirus System were forced to book passage on this ship in order to bypass the Imperial blockade of Bundim and return to Draenell's Point. The only reason they were able to book passage on the ship was that a group of anti-Imperial rebels had hijacked the ship a week before. Although not officially affiliated with the Alliance, the hijackers pretended the Alliance team was a group of tourists in order to get past the Imperial blockade of Bundim. (GMK)
Telgorn Corporation  
this venerable corporation was founded many millennia before the onset of the Galactic Civil War. Originally, much of Telgorn's business was based on the manufacture and sale of portable power cells, and this part of their business remained strong throughout the corporation's history. During the era of the New Order, Telgorn was known for its starship flight computers, and the corporation expanded its business by designed and manufacturing transport ships after the Battle of Hoth. (XW, QE, COJ, KOTOR2)

Telik  
this Imperial Major served as the commander of Colonel Vessery's ground assault forces, during the early years of the New Republic. After Ysanne Isard took control of General Arnothian's TIE Defender operation and began plotting the destruction of Prince-Admiral Krennel, Telik's forces were called upon to assist Rogue Squadron in the infiltration of the planet Ciutric. Unknown to the New Republic, Telik was the agent on Commenor who provided Iella Wessiri with a holdout blaster, after she was captured by agents in the law offices of Wooter, Rimki, and Vass. Telik was impressed with Iella's ability to escape the situation. The Rogues, in the guise of Antar Roat's experimental flight group, agreed to "defect" to join Krennel, while Telik's team worked on the ground to bring down Ciutric's defenses. Telik's team was also in charge of rescuing the prisoners who were held on the Lusankya. (IR)

Teljkon System  
the planetary system in which the wandering starship known as the Teljkon vagabond was first sighted. (BTS)
Teljkon Vagabond  
the name given to the mysterious, 1,500-meter starship that was discovered bouncing around the galaxy about five years before the Yevethan Great Purge. A Hrasskis monitor ship discovered it there, but was unable to track it. The New Republic frigate Boldheart also encountered the ship and tried to stop it, but was disabled by the vagabond. When the vagabond showed up near Gmar Askilon about thirteen years after the Battle of Endor, Hiram Drayson and Alpha Blue got involved. They sent a fleet of ships, under the joint command of Pakkpekatt and Lando Calrissian, to Gmar Askilon to intercept it. They found the vagabond to be a five-hulled cratf resembling a raft. It appeared to be lashed together with huge, organic-looking cables. Its outer hull was translucent and apparently organic. The vagabond maintained a twelve-kilometer distance around itself via hidden sensors, and transmitted a high-pitched signal to any ship which entered the twelve-kilometer zone. If the ship didn't properly respond immediately, the vagabond would shoot to disable it while the vagabond jumped into hyperspace. Lando Calrissian, Lobot, R2-D2, and C-3PO discovered that the initial code being sent by the vagabond represented a subset of the Qella genetic code, and sent the remaining code back to the vagabond. They were admitted within the secure zone, and allowed to enter the outer hull. The ferret ship D-89 tried to enter the secure zone with the same code, but the vagabond had switched to another code. It destroyed the ferret and jumped into hyperspace. Once left to their own devices, Lando's team discovered that the vagabond's hull was constantly adjusting itself, and was able to repair small breeches by simply closing the gap. Along a section of the inner hull, a huge mural depicted thousands of Qella. The interior walls reacted to physical touch, and various responses were garnered from the ship's many rooms. Many rooms had special keys or sigils in the walls which, when touched, produced Qella music or changed the room's color, shape, or musical sounds. The chemical make-up of the rooms could be altered seemingly at will, with various pores extracting and introducing the gases necessary for its inhabitants to breathe. Any room entered by its normal portal would react to the entrance by turning on lights. It was later discovered, by Lobot, that the vagabond was actually a huge musuem carrying thousands upon thousands of Qella ideas, stories, and data on how to rebuild the Qella race. The ship had been launched when the planet Brath Qella suddenly was plunged into an ice age, in order that the Qella could survive the cataclysm in stasis, until their planet was habitable again. Much of the ship mirrors the Qella genetic makeup, from its internal structures to the base-six algorithms which run it (and are based on the Qella genetic code). The ship was designed with the idea that, after the planet had managed to survive the loss of its moons, the vagabond would return to Brath Qella and restart the evolutionary process. When the vagabond did eventually return - with Calrissian, Lobot, R2-D2, and C-3PO still inside - it allowed Luke Skywalker to join them. Luke's mastery of the Force allowed him to commune with the ship, bypassing the base-six algorithms which baffled Lobot and telling it to let them all go. It then began the laborious process of thawing out Brath Qella and making it habitable again for the thousands of Qella buried under the ice. (BTS, SOL, TT)
Telk, Rab  
this man lived in The Clog, on the planet Chazwa, and despised Hahz Fallone for hoarding the wealth of the city. (ND)
Telkadis  
this was a forested planet. (COG)
Telkadis Hiding Tree Spider  
native to the taku forests of Telkadis, this unusual predatory insect made its home deep inside the wood of the taku. Outwardly, the trees appeared healthy, but inside the tree spiders had carved out their own nest. The females of the species used powerful claws and pincers to dig through the taku to lay their eggs, and then the males followed them in to fertilize them. While in the process of fertilization, the male tree spider emitted a kind of humming sound, which was the only indication that a specific taku tree was infected with spiders. These tree spiders ambushed rodents, such as the volete, when they got too close to the taku tree, injecting the rodents with a potent venom that killed the volete and allowed the spiders to feed on the carcass. These spiders were a nuisance to the loggers and foresters of Telkadis, who would cut down a seemingly healthy tree only to discover a nest of stinging insects. (COG)
Tell, Toria  
this woman, a native of the planet Tebru, was a noted droid inventor and collector. Toria, who trusted machines more than humans, maintained one of the galaxy's largest collection of rare automata and ancient robotic texts.

this was the fourth month of the Tapani local calendar, which mapped almost directly to the Coruscant local calendar. (PGT)
Telos  
this planet was known for its technological innovations, much of which was developed in the centuries following the Great Sith War. During the Sith War, the planet was sundered by Darth Malak, and much of its surface was destroyed. Left alone, Telos regenerated itself into a beautiful world, with many natural wonders which drew a steady tourist trade, as well as a great deal of commerce. About twelve years before the Battle of Naboo, the former Jedi Knight Xanatos turned the planet upside down by scheming to rape it of its resources in return for personal power. Only the intervention of Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi thwarted Xanatos' plans, and helped return the planet to its rightful government. (DR, DOR, SWDB)
Telos Security Force  
this was the primary police force that defended the planet Telos, during the years following the Great Sith War. (KOTOR2)
Telos-4  
this Outworld planet was the site of the Anglebay medical station during the Galactic Civil War. The planet remained neutral during the conflict, and treated the injured of both the Empire and the Alliance. It was attacked, and its droid and organic staff executed, by Valance the bounty hunter shortly after the Battle of Yavin. It was here that Beilert Valance was cyborged in an effort to save his life, after an Alliance serial torpedo destroyed his platoon. He left the planet a smoking lump of rock. (MC16, SWMW)
Telosian  
this was the name used to describe the human natives of the planet Telos. (DOR)
Telowe, Arden  
this lanky man operated Mos Eisley's Desert Survey Office during the height of the New Order. He lived in the office in between expeditions into the desert, always in search of scrap or salvage. Despite his efforts to explore as much of the desert as he could, Telowe never updated the official map in the Desert Survey Office. He kept many locations, such as smugglers' hideouts and possible mining locations, to himself, often selling them to the local Hutt crimelords. During the Galactic Civil War, Telowe found himself the object of an intense search, ostensibly led by his long-lost sister, Masda. However, Masda turned out to be his former wife, whom he had left on Esseles with a huge debt to repay. Masda hired a group of bounty hunters to trail her after she hired some local guides to help track down Telowe. The scouts managed to find him in a canyon cave, and he was forced to accede to Masda's demands or be killed on the spot. (GMR7)
Telowe, Masda  
this woman claimed to be Arden Telowe's long-lost sister, and hired a group of scouts to help her locate him in the deserts of Tatooine, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. In reality, Masda was Telowe's former wife, and was searching for him to exact a measure of revenge for leaving her. Masda was a native of Esseles, and claimed that Telowe had left her with a failing business and heavy debts. When the scouts agreed to help her, thinking that she was simply looking for her "brother," Masda then hired a group of bounty hunters to follow them into the desert, in order to ensure Telowe didn't escape. (GMR7)

Telsor  
this Corellian Gunship was part of the Alliance fleet sent to Bakura following the Battle of Endor. (TBSB)
Telti  
this desert moon orbits an unspecified world far from the galactic community. It has no atmosphere and supports no known life, but was a source of many different metals and ores needed throughout the galaxy. A mining colony was established on Telti, with special environment domes allowing the miners to exist on the moon. The mining colony supported the Empire only under duress, and went bankrupt after the Battle of Endor. Years later, Brakiss established a droid manufacturing facility there, funded by Dolph and structured to produce droids which would explode when hidden detonators were triggered by a remote signal. It was on Telti that Cole Fardreamer, with the help of R2-D2 and C-3PO, exposed Brakiss' part in Dolphs' plans. Brakiss fled the moon, rather than face the New Republic and Luke Skywalker. Luke Skywalker and Brakiss met several years later on Telti, in an attempt to come to terms with each other. The meeting was a failure, and opened the rift between them even farther. (TNR, JUS)
Teltiar Noodles  
this form of noodles could be slightly undercooked, for a crunchy texture, or cooked through for a softer feel in the mouth. Teltiar Noodles were often served with a full-bodied Corellian ale. (HNN5, SWGAL)

Teltior  
this alien race was native to the planet Merisee, in the Elrood Sector. They resemble their neighbors, the Meri, in nearly every aspect, including their blue skin color and webbed fingers. The Teltiors, however, lack the large brow ridge present on the Meris. Both races lived on their own continent for much of their early history, separated by vast oceans. During the period of history known as "The Joining," the two continents were joined by a finger of mountains, and the two races were able to discover each other. However, instead of friendship, the Meris offered the Teltiors war, and the two races battled for a thousand years before Merisee was discovered by the Old Republic. Realizing that their own struggle was nothing compared to the galactic struggle, the Meri and the Teltiors eventually united to form a single group called the Loag. The Teltiors were also more willing to leave Merisee and travel throughout the galaxy, and many found success as traders or merchants. Although they chose not to brag about it, Teltiors also produced some of the galaxy's most successful conmen. (PG3, AE)
Teluron Thacker  
this humanoid worked for many years as a secret operative for the Jedi Knights, during the last decades of the Old Republic. He had seen the compassion of the Jedi when his homeworld of Eeyyon needed assistance, and he resolved himself to help them out in any way possible. After he made several accounting mistakes in his regular job, Thacker found himself shipped off to Korriban, ostensibly to establish a new branch location. However, the assignment on the remote world was a punishment for his actions, and Thacker knew it. When the Jedi contacted him about finding information on Granta Omega's arrival on Korriban, Thacker agreed to help. However, years of living on the desolate planet had hardened Thacker's soul. Rather than fully helping the Jedi, he set them up to be captured or destroyed by the Sith Lord who was commanding Omega's actions. He ostensibly provided the Jedi with a borrowed airspeeder to reach the Valley of the Dark Lords, but then turned to the local police force and claimed that the speeder had been stolen. (JQ10)
Tem Eliss  
this Iyra from F'tral became a prominent and respected professor at the University of Sanbra. His lectures were always in demand, and students were consistently filling the auditoriums. He was very demanding of his students, but was fair and impartial. However, Eliss was also strongly anti-Imperial in his politics, and often spoke out about the rights of alien species. His manuscript, The University of Sanbra Guide to Intelligent Life, was written to provide cultural guidelines and to detail the goals and motivations of the species of the galaxy. He tried to remain neutral in his writing, but the Galactic Civil War and Palpatine's pro-human policies often colored his words. COMPNOR tried to halt publication of the document and detail Eliss, but Eliss fled into hiding. He was not seen again on Sanbra, although there have been rumors that Eliss joined the Alliance. The document itself began to appear on student computer networks, and eventually was distributed to over 25,000 nodes on 5,000 worlds. (GG12)
Tema  
this Galacian woman was an artisan who was married to the healer Rowi, and was Elan's mother. She was known as a restless spirit to the Hill People, and often traveled to Galu to see the "outside world." During one of her trips, she fell in love with King Cana, and they were briefly married outside of her life with Rowi. She conceived a child by Cana, but kept the child's true parentage a secret when her marriage to Cana was annulled. She raised Elan as Rowi's daugther, but knew in her heart that Elan was Cana's daughter and heir. (MOC.)

Temm, Miat  
this woman was a member of Admiral Pellaeon's civilian staff, and was assigned to greet Leia Organa Solo on Bastion when the New Republic first asked for the assistance of the Imperial Remnant in combatting the Yuuzhan Vong. Leia discovered that Miat was Force-sensitive, and adept at blocking off her mind from other Force users. (DTR)
Temolak  
this alien race, native to the arid world of Zirulast, scavenged their home system and neighboring systems for derelict starships and other materials to help bring credits home to their underdeveloped society. The Temolaks were known to deal primarily with low-tech races, preferring to use any advantage they could find to maintain their control. During the last days of the Old Republic, Temolak salvage crews often engaged in bloody conflicts for the rights to certain locations. These skirmishes led to the formation of the Temolak Salvage Consortium. However, then the Empire discovered the Temolak, the aliens quickly fled into the Outer Rim in order to avoid the Imperial laws and taxes which were imposed on them. The average Temolak stood just over two meters in height, and was a heavily-muscled being with reddish skin. Their faces were distinguished by the short horns which sprouted from their cheeks, as well as the fanlike ridges along their chins. As a people, the Temolak were quiet and timid, but could be resourceful and crafty when needed. Most Temolaks lived to be more than 100 years of age. (UANT)
Temolish  
this was the native language of the Temolak race. (UANT)
Temora  
this businessman was a native of Tun Wala, on Arda-2. He was against the selling of T-6 diodems to the Alliance, and refused Luke Skywalker's request to have a protection system developed to protect Alliance starfighters against Imperial ships which used after-market diodems. He was one of the city's executives. (CSWEA)
Tempay  
this is one of Gacerian's moons. It orbits the planet 180 degrees from the position of its sister moon, Fortay. The two pass completely around Gacerian once every 37.5 days. It was the site of an Imperial scout base, which was maintained even after the Battle of Endor. Loctaed at the moon's north pole, the base lies directly on the terminus line. Thus, it can monitor the planet below, and the open space beyond, from a single location. (PG2)
Temperance  
this was one of many sleek-hulled destroyers produced at the Contruum shipyards, during the early years of the New Republic. (UF)
Tempest  
this Victory-class Star Destroyer was nearly destroyed near Dulathia, about four years after the Battle of Endor. Under the command of Captain Emba, it was carrying the components for an ion cannon, and slipped away from the battle. It managed to reach Garos VI, where it deposited the cannon. (SWJ3)
Tempest  
this was a form of spice developed on Nar Shaddaa and produced on Varl by Mika the Hutt, during the early years of the New Order. Purple in color, it was noted for the way it provided a user with increased willpower and physical strength, but these enhancements came at a heavy price. Habitual users experienced a loss of self-control and sanity, and many died from the addiction. The addictive properties of tempest were stronger even than those of glitterstim, andris, or carsunum, and a single use was often all that was needed to form an addiction. Upon ingesting tempest, a user experienced a sensation not unlike having hot knives driven into the brain, which released a torrent of pleasurable emotions. In many cases, this was following a period in which the user felt invulnerable, and often went into a murderous rage to prove it. Addicts were easily distinguished by the spiderwebs of darkened blood vessels that were visible through their skin. Within months of its introduction, tempest had swept through Nar Shaddaa, collecting addicts at a remarkable pace. The lower levels of the Smuggler's Moon were rife with violent gangs, and were virtually unpassable. In just a few months, tempest began sweeping the Outer Rim Territories, and entire planets fell to its addiction. It took the investigative work of Angela Krin to discovered that the source of tempest was on the planet Varl, a fact that she discovered after investigating the source of the Endregaad Plague. Raw spice was transported to Varl, where it was mutated by the addition of a virus found only on the former Hutt homeworld. This mutated spice became the basis for tempest, and was refined to create the purple drug that Mika hoped would allow him to control the galaxy. The manufacturing facility was actually a custom-built battleship known as the Tempest, which was capable of producing enough of the spice to enslave the entire galaxy. Unfortunately for Mika, the agents hired by his parent, Popara, discovered the facility on Varl and destroyed it before Mika could set his plans in motion. (TF, WOTC)
Tempest  
this immense, 750-meter-long battleship was custom-built by Mika the Hutt to serve as the primary production facility for tempest spice. The ship was constructed on the surface of the planet Varl, hidden from prying eyes. The needle-shaped vessel contained hundreds of individual rooms that were connected by winding corridors, and was divided into four main sections. The forward section contained the main tempest processing facility, while the rearmost section contained the ship's engines and power plant. In the central part of the ship, the port side contained docking bays while the starboard side was dedicated to barracks, repair facilities, and an armory. Although the Tempest was built on the surface of Varl, it was completely spaceworthy, and could take off at a moment's notice, if needed. From the Tempest, Mika planned to produce enough tempest spice to enslave much of the galaxy, thereby taking control of the galaxy for himself. However, a group of freelance agents once hired by Mika's parent, Popara, discovered the facility on Varl. Mika tried to lift off from the planet's surface, but the agents managed to commandeer the Tempest before the Hutt could escape. Rather than let the ship fall into their hands, Mika set off the ship's self-destruct sequence. The Hutt was later killed in a firefight, and the Tempest detonated in orbit around Varl. Before its destruction, the Tempest was armed with sixteen turbolasers, twenty laser cannons, eight ion cannons, and twelve tractor beam projectors. It was capable of transporting up to 1,600 passengers and 8,100 metric tons of cargo, and required a crew of 800 to operate. (TF)
Tempest Rill  
this was an aggressive species of rill that was native to the planet Tatooine. (GQRG)
Tempest Squadron  
this was the company name of the walker squadron which was garrisoned at the Imperial outpost on the Forest Moon of Endor, during the construction of the second Death Star. This was an unusual grouping, made up primarily of AT-St walkers, but this was necessitated by the terrain of Endor's moon. The lead AT-AT in the squadron had been refitted with speciallized programs which corrected certain weaknesses exposed at the Battle of Hoth. Many of the squadron's walkers and scouts saw action during the subjugation of the Wookiees on planet Kashyyyk. (CCG10)
Tempest-class Gunship  
this gunship design was manufactured during the last century of the Old Republic. (COD)
Tempestro  
this race of sapient creatures was native to the planet known as Koda's World. They are a warrior race, descended from a gentle and proud civilization. Millennia before the Galactic Civil War, the Tempestro's ancestors had a great mastery of the Force and were incredibly spiritual. This belief in a higher power, and a lack of modern technology, left them unprepared for an asteroid strike. The impact threw up a huge dust cloud which exterminated much of the Tempestro civilization. The survivors stored all their knowledge in a stone temple and eked out a meager existence. Those modern Tempestro understand that the temple is important, but have forgotten exactly why. When they were discovered by Krin Koda, he provided medicines to cure a ravaging disease. In return, the Tempestro gave him the Eye of Koda. They resemble large, winged reptiles which can glide great distances. Their heads are long and thin, dominated by sharp beaks and a bony spike projecting from the back of their skull. The edges of their wings are covered with serrated scales. Much of their current civilization is based on the trees of the planet. They are slightly telepathic, a remnant of their former ability to use the Force. During his attempt to gain the powerful Eye of Koda, Dhar Bullwin used his magic to enslave a population of Tempestro, using them to combat a gorup of scouts who were also on the trail of the Eye. (GG8)
Temp-flu  
this was starfighter pilot slang for the mental state of mind which overcomes pilots shortly before their tour of duty was up. If they survived long enough, some pilots tried to ensure their continued survival by holding back and not becoming too aggressive. (MBF)
Templast  
this was a specially-created form of plastisheet, what would begin to oxidize as soon as it made contact with the air. This property of templast made it ideal for coded or important messages that were confidential or secret, since they would burn up within minutes of being opened. (MJH)
Temple Atun  
one of the Massassi temples on Yavin 4, Atun was left untouched by the Alliance and the Jedi Students after them. Luke Skywalker wanted to keep the temple in its deteriorated condition so that the Jedi could have a link to the Massassi on which to meditate. He often went there to be alone and reflect on the galaxy. (BTS)
Temple of Fire  
one of the ancient Massassi temples on Yavin 4, it was here that Exar Kun herded all the ancient Massassi people before he drained them of all their life-energy in order to preserve his own spirit in the Dark Side of the Force. (DLS, DSSB)
Temple of Illumination  
this was the primary religion of the Chalactan people. The leaders of the Temple of Illumination also served as the planetary leaders of Chalacta during the last years of the Old Republic. (HNN5)
Temple of Imynusoph  
this temple was located on the planet Brentaal. (SWJ13)
Temple of Pomojema  
a shrine to the god Pomojema on Circarpous V, and the resting place of the Kaiburr crystal. It is a large, black pyramid, wider than it is tall. It was built from volcanic rock, and was starting to erode when Luke and Leia found it. A statue of Pomojema is located at its center, and the Kaiburr crystal was imbedded in the statue. (SME)
Temple of Tet-Ami  
this ancient edifice was located near Carthas, on the planet Benja-Rihn. It was believed to house a unique stone known as the Orb of Passage, which contained Tet-Ami's power to alter time. It was built some 4,000 years before the Battle of Naboo, to honor Tet-Ami and his actions in defending the city of Carthas from attack. However, it was lost from the public consciousness for many centuries as civilization began to coalesce around Coruscant. However, rumors of its existence, and the power of the stone hidden inside, drove Kruy Mulacks and his investigative team to excavate the site. (T13)
Temple of the Ancients  
this temple was located on the Unknown World of the Rakata race, and ws believed to have been erected by the earliest of Rakatan civilizations. Subsequent generations of Rakata sealed off the Temple and worshipped it as a place of reverence, and only those Rakata who knew the correct rituals could gain access to its interior. (KOTOR)
Temple of the Beatific Razor  
this violent sect of terrorists was formed among the Swokes Swokes during the early years of their membership in the Old Republic, when off-world corporations stripped Makem Te of its resources and left the planet a barren wasteland. The Congress of Caliphs had happily agreed to the offers made by these corporations, which caused a great deal of confusion among the Swokes Swokes population. Their low-tech existence was suddenly perforated by noisy machinery and uncaring aliens. Several splinter groups were formed at this time to disrupt the operations of the off-worlders, and the Temple of the Beatific Razor was perhaps the most fanatical of the lot. Led by the High Mystics, the Razor Penitents grew rapidly in strength and numbers, until they rivaled the Congress of Caliphs in power. The Caliphs requested military assistance from the Old Republic just prior to the onset of the Clone Wars, but the Republic later pulled out when the Beatific Razors eliminated their entire force. This forced the Caliphs to ally themselves with the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and the Separatist forces helped to quell the actions of the Beatific Razors for many years. (WOTC, GORW)
Temple of the Blueleaf Cluster  
one of the ancient, elaborate structures found in the jungles of Yavin Four. It was nearly destroyed when Vice Admiral Pellaeon and his fleet of Imperial-class Star Destroyers attacked the temple, thinking it was the primary site of Luke Skywalker's Jedi academy. It houses a huge, crystalline object deep inside its main chamber. This crystal glows and throbs with apparent life, filling the chamber with an eerie blue light. The crystal is oily to the touch, and is charged with static electricity. There are reports that the crystal is filled with the spirits of the long-dead Massassi people, and that their faces can be seen inside the crystal. Luke and Brakiss met here during the Shadow Academy's attack on Yavin 4, but Luke was unable to sway Brakiss from the Dark Side. (GDV, DS, ISU, JUS)
Temple of the Circle  
a beautiful building found in Imperial City on Coruscant, it was destroyed in the civil war which ripped the planet apart following the death of Thrawn. (DESB)
Temple of the Infinite Spirit  
this H'kig fortress was established on the planet J't'p'tan, shortly after the religious sect fled Rishi. Covering more than 2,000 hectares of land, the Temple compound was made up of a complex configuration of courtyards, gardens, archways, and dormitories surrounding the main temple itself. The Temple was the first building created by the H'kig after their arrival on J't'p'tan, and was a monolith of polished stone that symbolized the teachings of H'kig. (EGP, WOTC)
Temple of the Je'ulajists  
using a corrupted form of the word "geologists," the Kentra created this temple from the wreckage of the Alpha Kentrum. It was erected as a reminder to follow the tenets of Sword, Plow, and Spirit set down by Michael Tandre. (SWJ2)
Temple of the Lovers  
this temple was erected by the Yuuzhan Vong on the planet Coruscant - which had been remade into a simulacrum of Yuuzhan'tar - in honor of the two gods known as the Lovers, Yun-Txiin and Yun-Q'aah. (UF)
Temple of the Modeler  
this organic building was located on the planet Coruscant, after it was captured and worldshaped by the Yuuzhan Vong, and was used as a shrine by the Shapers to their god, Yun-Ne'Shel. (DW, FH2)
Temple of the Sacred Circle  
this was the central building of worship maintained by the sisters of the Order of the Sacred Circle on the planet Monastery. In addition to serving a religious purpose, the Temple also provided shelter and housing for the many devotees who lived on the planet. It was a vast dome-shaped structure, sitting within a square compound. At each corner of the compound was a tall tower. Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, when Domina Tagge schemed to have Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker eliminated, Imperial forces under the command of Captain Wermis opened fire on the Temple and its surrounding campus, destroying much of the building and scattering the acolytes. (MC35, MC37)
Temple River

Temple Spire  
this was the tallest of the towers which rose from the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, during the last decades of the Old Republic. The Temple Spire was considered the most sacred place of contemplation by the Jedi. (IWE1)
Temple Valley  
this was the name given to the rift valley located near Tel Bollin, on the planet Endregaad, where a collection of pre-Republic ruins were found. When the Endregaad Plague broke out during the early years of the New Order, the valley served as a sort of refuge for those beings who had been outcast for contracting the disease multiple times. (TF)
Templeton  
a Virujansian Senator rescued from Captivity by the Alliance. (RC)
Temporary Droids  
this corporation was formed during the last decades of the Old Republic, to provide other businesses and private enterprises with a ready pool of droid labor for short- or long-term rental. This allowed a business to acquire a group of droids for a short period, without having to buy them outright and then sell them later on. (GMR4)
Temptation Canyon  
located on the planet Sriluur, this desolate canyon was known as a home for bandigos. The Weequay population of the planet deserted the canyon and left it alone, believing it was the site of an epic battle between their god, Quay, and the evil water-nymph temptresses who lived in the pool at the deepest end of the canyon. The canyon was also known by its Weequay name, Uurutche'zediev. Many believe that the legend of Quay's battle was simply a fanciful description of the first Weequay attempt to get past the bandigos which live in the canyon, in order to get to the fresh-water spring at its end. The ancient Weequay had erected a temple midway through the Canyon, in order to help keep the water nymphs from returning and to warn travelers of their possible presence. The temple was later taken over by Ujin Voli as a base of operations. (SSR)
Tempter  
also called the Endorian treesnake, the tempter lived in hollowed-out trees and rocky crevices. Once settled into a location, it would stick out its furred tongue and wag it around, as if the tongue were a wounded snake. The tongue had its own musculature and nerve center, and the tip of the tongue even semed to have eyes and a mouth, which gave it a convincing appearance. The tempter's slimy skin also gave off a tempting aroma. Whenever a scavenger came to eat the "snake," the tempter would strike at the scavenger with its long neck, grasping the scavenger and eating it whole. The body of the tempter was covered with thick mucous, which allowed it to slither across the forest floor and crawl into tight locations to hide. The bite of the treesnake is mildly poisonous, causing skin inflamation. (ISU, E1A7, EA, WSW)
Temquill, Blair  
this woman was born to one of the lesser nobles of House Tagge, and led a pampered life until her father became involved in politics. He hated the Empire, and sent a large part of the family fortune to the Alliance, to help fund their efforts on Ralltiir. Unfortunately, Lord Tion took control of that planet, and the Temquill fortune was lost. Blair, suddenly plunged into near-poverty, left home and traveled to Coruscant. She took with her all the credits she could get from the remaining family funds, and traveled the galaxy under a series of pseudonyms.

this Sluissi served under Admiral Ackbar during the development of the B-Wing fighter as part of Project Shantipole. She is generally credited with being one of the early developers of the shear-plane mode used to defeat a tractor beam. After barely escaping Imperial forces, she decided that being a member of the Alliance was not good for her health. She defected, and began selling information about the Alliance to the Empire shortly before the Battle of Endor. It was believed she was working at the Imperial shipyards near Vosteltig, but the yards were too well-defended to obtain better information. (WBC)
Ten Mile Plateau  
a favorite tourist attraction, found in the rugged outback of the planet Ord Mantell. The bounty hunter Skorr maintained a bsae there, during the early years of the Galactic Civil War, hidden in an abandoned warehouse and loading station.

Tenchl, Losk  
this pudgy, middle-aged man spent most of his career in the Tapani Sector of the galaxy, jumping the mining claims made by other explorers in order to make his own money. Despite his success as a miner, Losk was a poor businessman, and lost his millions almost as soon as he stole them. Shortly before the Battle of Endor, he was set free from a House Calispa prison, after being arrested for locating the House's secret corusca gem mining operation at Coorimbus IV. (LOE)

Tendau  
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 "restless" or "full of wanderlust". (GCG)
Tendau Bendan  
this Ithorian was an Old Republic Senator when Queen Amidala moved for a vote of no-confidence in the abilities of Chancellor Valorum. Senator Bendan was known to be one of Valorum's main supporters, in the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo, and voted against the taxation of trade routes when the matter was put forth. In the decade which followed the Battle of Naboo, Senator Bendan was one of the loudest objectors to Chancellor Palpatine's Military Creation Act, fearing that the overt formation of a Republic-wide army would simply cause more violence rather than stop it. Note that this character's name is spelled Bendon in Cloak of Deception. (IG1, COD, CCG13, HNN4)
Tendau Nandon  
this Ithorian worked for the Empire as a biologist during the height of the New Order. He found himself "recruited" into Imperial service after his desire to learn everything he could about the Mother Jungle drove him from his herdship and away from Ithor. He was partnered with Dusque Mistflier for much of her career, a position that both felt was due to Tendau's race and Dusque's femininity. In the wake of the Battle of Yavin, Tendau and Dusque were assigned as the Imperial representatives to a huge convention of zoologists and xenobiologists at The Aerie, on the planet Naboo. It was during this convention that Dusque first met Finn Darktrin, and she began to question her allegiance to the Empire. Unknown to Dusque, that was exactly what Finn wanted her to do. He then manipulated events in such a way that Tendau was arrested on the suspicion that he was an Alliance sympathizer. When a squad of stormtroopers executed Tendau for the briefest of resistance, Finn explained to her that he had been trading information with Bothan spies. Dusque decided to avenge his death by joining the Alliance. It was only months later, after the recovery of a holocron from the ancient jedi ruins on Dantooine, that Dusque discovered the truth of Tendau's death. The fact that Tendau had met with a group of Bothans just before his death was simply a coincidence Finn used to support his backstory. (ROD)
Tendd  
this Imperial Moff was in control of the planet Bethal when the apocia tree population was nearly destroyed by greddleback insects. His declaration of the planet as a disaster world helped gain valuable Imperial funds to the restoration of the apocia. (SWJ11)
Tendi Maneuver  
this starfigbhter maneuver was used by the pilots of the New Republic Navy, during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. It was used whenever three or more fighters were being pursued by enemy craft, and could not escape without a fight. The fleeing ships built up as much speed as possible while trying to stay ahead of the pursuing enemy ships. Then, one fghter would suddenly kill power to the engines and spin around, facing the oncoming enemy ships. This ship, known as the fan, served two purposes. First and foremost, it broke up the group of enemy fighters, forcing them to change their flight path to avoid collisions. Second, it allowed the fleeing ships to put some distance between themselves and the enemy, giving them an opportunity to loop back around and engage the enemy head-on. (FP)

Tenk, Phloremirlla  
this red-cheeked woman was an agent of the Old Republic's Intelligence agency, and was stationed on the planet Haruun Kal during the Clone Wars. She was ostensibly the owner and operator of the Highland Green Washeteria, but also served as an information source for the Republic and the Jedi Knights. She preferred to be called simply Flor, since that was the easiest part of her name to pronounce. When Mace Windu arrived on Haruun Kal to investigate the disappearance of Deppa Billaba, she was shot in the shoulder by a blast from Nick Rostu, and died shortly after from massive blood-loss. Mace later discovered that Flor had actually been a double agent, ostensibly working for the Republic but actually working for the Separatists. Rostu eliminated her to save Windu's life as well as to eliminate a threat to the Korunnai. (SHPT)

They held sway in over sixty Outer Rim star systems, and controlled over a dozen front corporations in areas such as entertainment, cargo transport, and business management. Tenloss specialized in gunrunning, extortion, and smuggling. After the Battle of Endor, Tenloss quickly expanded as the Empire lost control of many sectors of space. By the time Grand Admiral Thrawn returned from the Unknown Regions, Tenloss had taken control of criminal activities in Astal, Dail, Lol, and Skine Sectors. (SE, EGV, GG11)

Tenno  
this young boy was the son of Ka'arn, living with his family on the planet Ceriun some 1,000 years before the Battle of Endor. Tenno was a rebellious young boy, an attribute that didn't sit well with his disciplinarian father. The fact that Ka'arn's usual communication with his son involved a back-handed swipe acros the mouth made Tenno all the more eager to strike out on his own. When his father was given a holocron by a dying Jedi Knight, Tenno made a brash decision to steal it from the tribe's elders and make sure it was safe. However, in the back of his mind, Tenno also knew that the Sith would come looking for it, and secretly hoped to deliver the holocron as a way to get the Sith to take him as an apprentice. Tenno and his friends showed up at a council meeting to demand the holocron, and Ka'arn angrily questioned their motives. When he made to strike Tenno yet again, Tenno drew a knife and stabbed his father in the chest. When the Sith did arrive and simply took the holocron, Tenno explained that they had been trying to ensure he could have it. Anger surged in the Sith, who explained that he needed no one's help before killing Tennos' friends as his "reward". The Sith then warned the rest of the tribe that, if anyone harmed Tenno for what had happened, he would return and cause more trouble. (T17)

Upon achieving the rank of Jedi Knight, Ly'alu was assigned to monitor the planet Ryloth, both for Force-sensitive individuals and to keep and eye open for Jedi interests on the planet. He felt that he was up to the task, but after learning that most Twi'leks could communicate with their lekku, Tensh suddenly found himself floundering. He struggled to learn the Lekku language, in an effort to enhance his already formidable information gathering skills. (GORW)

an Imperial soldier, in command of the 6th regiment that helped turn the Battle of Picutorion. (ISB)
Tensor Rifle  
developed by the Squib race, the tensor rifle fired bursts of tractor beam energy in rapid succession at its target, causing intense molecular disruption. Although the beam was invisible, the tensor rifle gave off a loud retort when fired. When used against organic material, the tensor rifle caused complete cellular disruption, and was outlawed in many systems for this reason. (GFT)
Tentacle Bird  
native to the planet Pelemax, in the Colonies Region, this bird was used in ancient times as a mount by Pelemaxian warriors. Modern-day Pelemaxians have domesticated these avians for use as beasts of burden. Tentacle birds were flightless, having a pair of blue-green tentacles in place of wings. These tentacles were prehensile, and could be used to swing from tree to tree. These birds emitted a piercing war-cry just before attacking their prey, a sound which served to unnerve the intended victim. The average tentacle bird stood just over two meters tall, and the span of their tentacles reached up to three meters. (COG)

The duel was over when the first blow was landed, when first blood was drawn, or when one of the combatants became unconscious. The exact details were agreed to by the duelists. Killing an opponent was forbidden in a tente duel, and those beings who killed their opponents were often marooned on a barely-inhabitable moon. (PP, SWJ5)

Tenticulon  
this was a species of predatory creature, native to the glaciers of the planet Rhinnal. Many Rhinnalians considered the tenticulon a myth, since it lived below the ice-covered oceans and was rarely seen. Resembling an amorphous blob, the tenticulon had several ribbon-like arms which served a variety of uses. The tenticulon hunted fireheads for food, using specialized stinging limbs to immobilize their prey. When the arms were severed or damaged, the tenticulon could regrow them in a short time. (CCW)
Tentrata, Kader  
this sullen Imperial Lieutenant was assigned to the Elrood Sector, during the height of the Galactic Civil War.

Tepine, Qell  
a native of Coruscant, Qell Tepine was the leader of the mercenary group known as Star's Nova. Tepine and Star's Nova worked exclusively for the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War, but better money could be found after the Battle of Endor. During his employment by the Alliance, Tepine developed a network of informants within the military, and used them to steal critical information from the New Republic. This made him doubly dangerous to the Republic, for it gave him access to the Republic's databases, and gave him a way to make a lot of credits selling military secrets to the highest bidder. (WBC)
Teprimal  
this New Republic Captain served as a flight instructor working under Colonel Atton Repness. Teprimal was also a high-ranking member of Repness' blackmarket sales force, and often arranged for the pick-up of supposedly lost starfighters for later sale to private concerns. (IF)

Teraab Sector  
this area of the galaxy, located on the border between the Colonies Region and the Mid Rim, was mined extensively during the last century of the Old Republic. The sector was filled with dense nebulae and other proto-star systems that shifted without notice, which made travel through the sector difficult, but not impossible. Much of the mining operation was controlled by the Mining Guild, but several lawless operations were sprinkled throughout the sector. (X2, SWMW)
Teradoc  
a tyrannical despot active in the early years of Leia Organa Solo's reign as New Republic Chief of State, Teradoc sought to restore the Imperial New Order to the galaxy. He was constantly trying to win control of the remaining Imperial fleet from High Warlord Harrsk, and he used his crimson-colored fleet of Victory-class Star Destroyers to take out Harrsk's flagship, the Shockwave, during Harrsk's talks with Daala. Like many of the surviving warlords, Teradoc had grown fat and lazy by the time Daala convened the warlords at Tsoss Beacon. And, like the other warlords, he perished at Tsoss Beacon when Daala and Pellaeon poisoned them all. (COJ, DS)
Terak  
Terak was ostensibly the King of the Marauders on the Forest Moon of Endor, during the years leading up to the Battle of Endor. He was taller and stronger than the other Marauders, and was obsessed with finding "The Power," which he felt was the key to the ancient scroll he possessed. The scroll held plans to the starship of Noa Briqualon and Salek Weet, who had crashed onto the Forest Moon. After Salek was captured and interrogated, Terak found the scroll and believed that the ship's crystal oscillator contained The Power. Terak desired to built a starship for himself, so that he could terrorize the stars. He enlisted the Dathomiri witch, Charal, to help him find The Power. Later, he killed most of the Towani family while trying to obtain the oscillator from their shuttle. Having obtained it, though, Terak had no idea how to use it. He tried to make Cindel tell him how it worked, but she was unable to. When Cindel retrieved the oscillator and liberated the Ewoks held by the Marauders, Terak had Charal turn into a bird to lead him to the humans, and kept her magic ring to guarantee her compliance. This proved to be his downfall, for Wicket struck the ring with a stone, causing it to flare to life, burning Terak to death. Terak was portrayed by Carel Struycken in Ewoks: The Battle for Endor. (BFE, GMR9, SWDB)
Terakaya

this semi-aquatic mammal was native to the planet Naboo. The terazod had a stout horn on its nose, used for digging through the dirt and silt at the bottom of ponds and lakes and uprooting plants to feed on. Because of their small size, terazods actually floated on the surface of the water and snorkeled downward. Their long necks allowed them to reach the bottom of shallow waters, and a long tail helped counterbalance them while feeding. The tail is also studded with horny spikes. (WSW)
Terbeast

Tere herself was briefly imprisoned, but managed to escape and became a smuggler on her own. She owned the modified Suwantek light freighter known as the StarQuest, which she used as a smuggling vessel. Among the beings who served as her first mate were Matt Turhaya and, after the Battle of Endor, Gil Crosear. Tere had worked with Turhaya on Kabaira, and it was during this time that she learned of Matt's young daughter, Alex. (SWJ6, SWJ13)
Tereb Ab'Lon  
a Bothan diplomat who was monitored by the Empire because they suspected, but could not prove, that he was an Alliance supporter. Ab'Lon was, in fact, secretly working for the Alliance. He was killed before he could deliver secret fleet schedules to an Alliance cell in the Tao-Grant System. Nevertheless, he had stored the information in the astromech droid R2-Z1, known as Fweep, which he handed over to Nim Bola before he slipped into a coma. His attackers later dropped him into the Sarlacc, in the Pit of Carkoon, on Tatooine. There was reason to believe that Tereb was eliminated by his superior, Gatrar Shey'Tyan, who had turned the Bothan planets over to the Empire. (SWJ3)
Terecon  
this long-bodied reptile was native to the planet Essowyn. Measuring up to eight meter in length, and standing a meter at the shoulder, the terecons were the only natural enemy of the huge hoska.

Termadus  
this white dwarf was the secondary star in the Cularin System. Much younger than its companion, the yellow star Morasil, Termandus had evolved quickly through its life-cycle. Because of its proximity to Morasil, Termandus' meager gravity often collected coronal gases from the larger star, a phenomenon which hid Termandus from many starship nagivational computers and presented dangers to any being traveling through hyperspace near the Cularin System. (LFC)
Termagant  
this Imperial Strike-class cruiser was part of the Warlord Zsinj's fleet. It was part of the group that was sent to the Alderaan System to ambush the bacta convoy headed to Coruscant from Thyferra.

(KT)
Terman Station  
the Black Sun pilot Kalend Thora was nearly assassinated while laying over on this station, which was located along the Sisar Run between Sespe and Sriluur. The Station was roughly twice the size of Nwarcol Point. During the Galactic Civil War, Terman Station was run by Kilon Tarlok, who spent much of his time repairing the aging station. Although local legends said that Terman Station was built millennia ago by the Hutts, Kinsa Doroturo later discovered that the station was actually one of the orbital fortresses built by Xim the Despot. It was abandoned after the Third Battle of Vontor and left idle. (SSR)

Terminus  
this planet was located on the fringes of the Red Nebula. A world not unlike Coruscant, Terminus served as a major shipping center along a great number of hyperspace trade routes. The surface of the planet was built to enhance the natural beauty of its forests, but was nonetheless a bustling commercial center. (LTA2, MC50)
Termo  
this man served as an Admiral in the Imperial Navy, and was in command of the Star Destroyer Liquidator during the height of the New Order. Shortly before the Battle of Yavin, Admiral Termo was given a set of three holocassettes by Grand Moff Tarkin, with the order to view the first tape if the first Death Star didn't meet them at Delrakkin within a certain amount of time. Termo was initially unaware of the Alliance's victory at Yavin, but opened the first tape when the deadline passed. Although he followed the directions given to him by Tarkin in the first and second tapes, both tapes were stolen by an Alliance agent who managed to infiltrate the Liquidator. The tapes revealed to the Alliance's leadership that Delrakkin was the test site of a device which would prevent starships from entering hyperspace. Upon completing the attack on Delrakkin, Termo was ordered to jump back to the Yavin System, to locate the first Death Star and find out what happened to it. Once in the system, Termo found himself once again facing the Alliance agent who stole his tapes, only this time the agent had managed to place a thermal detonator in the Liquidator's solar ionization chamber. The rebel managed to escape just before the detonator exploded, destroying the ship and killing all aboard. Termo however, managed to reach an escape pod with Communications Officer Tix, and they was able to blast off just seconds before the explosion. (MIS2, MIS4)
Termyte  
this insect, which was native to the planet Kubindi, was considered a tender delicacy by the Kubaz race. Most termytes were wood-boring insects that continued to grow throughout their lifecycle, during which time they gnawed a network of caves and tunnels into the tree trunk in which it lived. Because the termyte kept growing as it fed, it became trapped within its tree, as the original hole it bored into the tree was too small to allow its body to pass through. Because of this, termytes laid their eggs in the branches of the trees, so that their larvae can begin burrowing into the tree and work their way downward as they grew. In this way, mature termytes could emerge from a tree trunk near the ground. During the mating season, the females then climbed back up to lay their eggs. (MIS6)
Ternma  
this was one of the more common surnames used by the Duros people. Like all such names, Trenma was used only for official business, to indicate one individual from another when in the presense of non-Duros. This name literally meant "mechanic". (GCG)

Teroenza  
this t'landa Til was employed by Zavval the Hutt to act as the Most Exalted High Priest of Ylesia. In this position, he was actually in charge of obtaining slave labor to process the Hutt's spice for distribution. Teroenza maintained a lavish suite of offices, and used his resources to amass a wonderful collection of artifacts from across the galaxy. His art collection was extremely valuable, and he kept guards posted at all times. It was Teroenza who sent out a request for a pilot to transfer Ylesian colonists to and from the planet, as well as transport spice to the Hutts. He chose Vykk Drago, who was actually a young Han Solo. While Solo was quite good at flying starships, when he learned of the spice and slaving operations he plotted to breka free of Teroenza's employment. Working with Bria Tharen, Han managed to destroy a major processing facility and escape, but not before stealing much of Teroenza's art collections and killing Zavval during his escape. Teroenza was forced to put out a bounty on Drago. Han never was catpured, and Teroenza became increasingly disgruntled with Besadii's leaderhsip. Following Zavval's death, Kibbick was placed on Ylesia as a figurehead, answering to Aruk and Durga. Teroenza worked with Jabba and Jiliac to assassiante Aruk, and Teroenza himself murdered Kibbick. However, his part in the death of Aruk was discovered by Durga, who employed Boba Fett on a priority bounty to kill the beast. Teroenza managed to survive the initial stages of the Battle of Ylesia, and nearly captured Bria Tharen and Han Solo when Fett appeared. He killed the t'landa Til and removed its horn as proof for Durga. (TPS, THG, RD)
Terpfen  
a Mon Calamari, and Ackbar's chief starship mechanic. When the Empire invaded Calamari, he was captured and sent to Carida for Imperial reconditioning. While there, his brain was surgically altered to remove loyalty centers. He was then used by the Empire to build star-ships, and was allowed to escape during a Rebel attack. He has been used as an Imperial spy since then. He was responsible for sabotaging Ackbar's B-Wing shuttle, which crashed into the Cathedral of Winds on Vortex. He was also responsible for planting a homing beacon on the ship Ackbar took to the planet Anoth, and he relayed the coordinates to Furgan, who used them in an attempt to kidnao Anakin Solo. A great battle ensued on Anoth, but in the end baby Anakin was rescued. Furgan tried to escape, but Terpfen used one of the MT-AT's to destroy Furgan. Terpfen later returned to Calamari to help rebuild the planet's floating cities. (DA, COTF)

Terqu, Melin  
this man served as the deck officer of the main hangar on deep-space platform 3DC/Green, directing traffic for the Alliance. (HAS)
Terra Derida  
this Phindian woman was Baftu's assistant. She was in charge of securing the Syndicat's stronghold in the city of Laressa. She also was suspicious of Duenna's loyalties, but kept the Phindian woman in check with continued threats of renewal. It was later revealed that Terra was the sister of Guerra and Paxxi Derida. She had been "renewed" by the Syndicat at the age of eleven, and retrained by Baftu himself to be a member of the Syndicat. Her mother, Duenna, joined the Syndicat in hopes of returning her original memories to her, but Terra was not strong enough. Terra opposed Baftu's proposed alliance with Prince Beju of Gala, fearing that the Prince was getting more than the Syndicat, and that Baftu was spreading his power too thin. Baftu ignored her, even when she recognized that the Prince Beju who arrived on Phindar was really Obi-Wan Kenobi in disguise. When Baftu discovered that the Syndicat treasury was gone - having been recovered by Qui-Gon Jinn and the Derida brothers and returned to the Phindians - he accused Terra of stealing and covering the theft up by blaming Beju. Baftu had her executed on the spot. When her body was discovered later by Guerra and Paxxi, she died in their arms with a flood of memories about them. (HP)
Terra Sool  
this planet, noted for its agriculture and its idyllic cloudscapes, was the site of a major Separatist emplacement during the height of the Clone Wars. Unusual, repulsor-equipped battle platforms were placed in low orbit around Terra Sool, hiding in the clouds. The disk-shaped platforms were studded with turbolasers and crewed by all manner of battle droids. The combined efforts of Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi were able to destroy the battle platforms before they could raze the surface of the planet. The clouds of Terra Sool were inhabited by a species of dragon-like, avian creatures. (CWA2)
Terrain-Following Sensor  
this starship component was used in a planet's atmosphere to monitor the terrain of a planetary body, providing detailed mappings of the ground formations, treelines, and other possible obstructions. The TFS could also be used to target a destination's location, and guided the ship toward it using various terrestrial formations as guidemarkers. A TFS could be set to fly as near or as far from the ground as desired, and was often used to fly a ship well below the normal operating position of ground-based tracking systems. (HSE)
Terrant Skayanestro  
this was the name of one the few Tarro who were living in the galaxy during the early years of the New Republic. (UANT)
Terrarium City  
this architectural wonder, located on the now-destroyed planet of Alderaan, was created from a natural depression in the plains of the planet. The depression was deepened, expanded, then sealed to prevent any industrial waste from leaking into the earth. The depression was then filled with a liquid polymer to the level of the first section of the city. The polymer was allowed to harden, then modified battleships used their lasers to carve out the section into a series of open spaces. A three-dimensional pattern was programmed into the weapons systems of the battleships, creating the intricate floorplan envisioned by the city's designers. When one level was done, more polymer was added and etched by the space-borne lasers. In this manner, eighteen layers of living space were created in Terrarium City. Although the lasers served to harden the polymer while carving it, the polymer could be later reshaped if the inhabitants so desired. Thus, much of the city's population could create their own artwork by manipulating the walls of their dwellings. The entire city was capped by a transparent sheet, from which sprouted a number of thin spires used as turbolift shafts and waste elimination systems. (ISU)
Terra-tower  
this was the primary form of outpost construction used by the ExGal Society. A terra-tower built upon the natural beauty of the planets the Society used to monitor extra-galactic activity, and only intruded on the planet's natural environment enough to support its sensors and communications requirements. These outposts often resembled walled forts, built to keep out the often-savage wildlife of frontier planets. (VP)

Terrik  
this was one of the most common surnames found among the human population of Corellia. (GMR9)
Terrik Horn, Mirax  
a native of the planet Corellia, she was part of the crew of the Pulsar Skate. When the Skate was intercepted by the Black Asp in the Chorax System, she assisted in the rescue of Corran Horn. When she discovered it was Corran she had rescued, she was not happy. It was Corran's father who had sent her own father to Kessel. She often stayed with the family of Wedge Antilles when her father was on a dangerous run. Later, when her father tried to help Wedge Antilles track down the pirates that were responsible for his parents' deaths, Wedge and Mirax became good friends, almost like a brother and sister. When Booster was sent to the Spice Mines of Kessel, Mirax was not yet of legal age. However, that didn't stop her from taking over her father's businesses, using her own business sense to turn the operation into a profit-generating endeavor just slightly on the illegal side. Later, Mirax often helped the Alliance and the New Republic, by smuggling supplies and weapons to Alliance bases. She was an instrumental part of the plan to convoy bacta from Thyferra to Coruscant during the Krytos crisis, but was not part of the convoy when it was destroyed in the Alderaan System. Instead, she and Liat Tsayv had taken a sample of the bacta in the Pulsar Skate to Borleias for examination. The sample eventually made its way to Qlaern Hirf, who used it in the creation of rylca. Mirax reappeared on Coruscant shortly after Tycho Celchu's trial was called off. During the time leading up to the Bacta War, Mirax became increaslingly in love with Corran, despite their familial differences. When Corran asked her to marry him, shortly before the Battle of Thyferra, she quickly agreed. They were married on the Lusankya by Wedge Antilles, in the wake of the battle, in order to make sure that Booster didn't have his say. Then, they were married in an elaborate ceremony on Coruscant. While Corran continued to fly for Rogue Squadron, Mirax started her own import/export business, convincing people that they needed goods that weren't really necessary. During the Republic's struggle with Grand Admiral Thrawn, she used the business as a cover to fly supplies to, and rescue refugees from, worlds Thrawn had subjugated. When Leonia Tavira started her pirate raids, Mirax appealed to the Republic to let her help catch the young woman, for it would help free Corran up to begin thinking about having a child. However, she was captured shortly after her mission began on Nal Hutta, when the Jensaarai were able to read her intentions. She was held on Suarbi 7/5 until rescued by Corran and Luke Skywalker. (XWN, KT, BW, IJ, IR)
Terrik, Booster  
a native of the planet Corellia, Booster was a smuggler and a starship pilot for hire. He was the original owner of the star yacht Pulsar Skate which he used in his endeavors. His wife died shortly after the birth of their daugther, Miraz, and Booster was forced to raise her aboard the Pulsar Skate on his own. Following the death of Wedge Antilles' parents on Gus Treta, Booster helped Wedge hunt down the pirates that caused the incident. They never found them, though, because Hal Horn caught up with Booster and sentenced him to five years in the correctional facility on Kessel. Booster lost his left eye while on Kessel, and had a cybernetic replacement inserted in its place. When Booster got out, he made sure that his daughter, Mirax, was able to work on her own within the law, so that she wouldn't suffer his fate. When she became involved with Rogue Squadron - and specifically Corran Horn - Booster found himself assisting the son of the man who imprisoned him. Booster did much of this for Wedge's benefit, and was more than amenable to creating a smugglers' haven in the space station orbiting Yag'Dhul, in an effort to keep the Rogues hidden after they resigned their commission to the New Republic. Booster worked hard to make the station defensible, and even installed several operable but non-functional weapons implacements. He even found proton torpedoes and concussion missiles for the Rogue's X-Wings when none were available. In a bold plan, the Rogues left the station undefended and tried to draw Ysanne Isard's forces into a trap. Booster's false defenses led the Lusankya's Captain Joak Drysso thinking that he was coming under fire from nearly 500 missile launchers and forced him to flee. The short battle led Booster to capture the Star Destroyer Virulence when Ace Squadron was dragged out of hyperspace by the gravity shadows of the station and the huge Lusankya. Booster convinced Lakwii Varrscha that the Aces were part of his defenses, and she surrendered. Booster and the Aces then took the Virulence to Thyferra and helped turn the tide of the Battle toward the Rogues. After this heroism and smart thinking, Booster asked for the Virulence in return. Airen Cracken balked at first, but Corran Horn cited an obscure salvage law that required Cracken to acknowledge Booster's right to ownership. This surprised Booster, coming from his sworn enemy's son, but that surprise was quickly overshadowed by Mirax's engagement to Horn. Talon Kaarde helped swing the deal by removing the weapons on board and selling them back to the New Republic. Booster obtained the stripped-down Virulence, and renamed it the Errant Venture. He then gutted the ship and turned it into a huge, floating, general store for smugglers and other pilots. For many years, Booster was unable to turn a profit from the ship, and spent most of his credits just keeping it running. He was recruited by his daughter and Iella Wessiri during the investigation into the whereabouts of the Lusankya prisoners, and they discovered several of the plots laid out by Ysanne Isard's clone against Rogue Squadron. However, they were too late to rescue the X-Wings from Distna. They did manage to recover Wes Janson and Asyr Sei'lar, both of whom survived. They kept the secret of their survival when Mon Mothma announced that Rogue Squadron had been destroyed. Janson was returned to Coruscant, though Asyr asked to remain "dead" in order to help change Bothan society. When Borsk Fey'lya approached Booster with a job offer, Booster listened until he discovered that Fey'lya was looking for a Bothan body to take the place of Asyr's in the tomb of the Bothan Martyrs. Fey'lya hinted that any body, even that of a criminal assassinated by one of Booster's people, would suffice. Booster was appalled, and beat Fey'lya to within an inch of his life to show his disgust. Booster later told Iella that he'd rather have Fey'lya as a direcgt enemy, rather than as a player sneaking around in the shadows. Booster was again called upon to assist the New Republic, when the existence of the Camaas Document was revealed. Booster and the Errant Venture were recruited to become the Tyrannic, as part of a ploy to recover a copy of the document from Yaga Minor. They were nearly captured in the attempt, as the Imperial forces knew that the Tyrannic was cloaked over Bothawui. However, the intervention of Admiral Pellaeon swayed the battle to the Republic's side, and the group escaped. When the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, Booster took the Errant Venture and went into hiding. When Jaina and Jacen Solo contacted him about assisting in the rescue of the Jedi students on Yavin 4, Booster agreed primarily because his grandson, Valin Horn, was on the moon. Booster later agreed to house the students of the Jedi praxeum until a safer training facility could be set up. Led by Kam Solusar and his wife, Tionne, the Jedi students traveled to the Maw Installation, where a new facility was created for them to train in secrecy, away from the fighting and the threat of attack. Booster remained at the Maw with the Errant Venture to protect against a possible Yuuzhan Vong attack. When the Yuuzhan Vong finally surrendered to the Galactic Alliance at Coruscant some five years after their invasion began, Booster decided that it was time to pursue more legitimate goals. The galaxy needed to be rebuilt, and there were too many honest ways to make a living. (XWN, BW, SOP, VOF, IR, EVC, NEGC, UF)
Terrik, Mod  
an Imperial Captain, Terrik was in charge of training Davin Felth and the other stormtroopers destined for Tatooine, as part of the search effort for R2-D2 and C-3PO. Terrik's bald head helped him stand out from the rest of the recruits. Terrik was known in Imperial circles as a fearless, highly motiviated leader who was willing to sacrifice his troops. Once on Tatooine, Terrik was placed in charge of the Deserts Sands Zeta squadron, and led the attacks on the Jawa sandcrawler and the Lars homestead. These attacks angered Felth, who continued to grow more disgusted with the Empire. When Terrik ordered his troopers to fire on Han Solo and the Millennium Falcon, Felth used the opportunity to shoot Terrik in the back, claiming that Terrik was a victim of the crossfire. (TME, CCG2)

Tesar Sebatyne  
this Barabel and his hatchmates, Bela and Krasov Hara, were trained under the tutelage of Tesar's mother, Master Saba Sebatyne, as members of the Wild Knights before joining Luke Skywalker and his Jedi Knights during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Tesar was the only one of the hatchmates who were Saba's direct kin; Bela and Krasov shared a different mother. One of the females shared the same father as Tesar, but Master Saba had no idea which one it was. The three hatchmates shared a deep, jovial bond, and often shared a sissing kind of laughter at one of their many in-jokes. The three students joined the Jedi strike team which was dispatched to Myrkr, in an effort to locate and destroy the voxyn queen. Tesar managed to survive the assault, and later served as one of Jaina Solo's Lieutenants in the Twin Suns Squadron. After Zonama Sekot reappeared near Coruscant, Tesar served as part of the defensive fleet which protected the planet from attack by the Yuuzhan Vong, a mission which was made all the more important while other Jedi Knights trained to fly aboard their new Sekotan starships. Five years later, when UnuThul sent out his call for help, Tesar was among seven young Jedi who dropped whatever mission they were currently on and traveled to the Unknown Regions to answer the call. Unlike Zekk and Jaina Solo, Tesar believed that the Chiss were planning to destroy every hive of the Colony, despite the fact that the Force had given the Jedi no indications of the true nature of the conflict. (SBS, Y, UF, DN1)
Tesc, Dynba  
this young woman was a college student at Garqi Ag University when she was captured by Prefect Mosh Barris during an anti-Imperial demonstration. She didn't understand the game she was playing, until she was eventually rescued by Corran Horn. Horn, posing as Eamon Yzalli, had her freed from Barris' prison so that she could pose as Kirtana Loor. She was to gather all her resistance confederates and bring them to liberate the Star's Delight, just as Kirtana brought the crew from the prison. She fled from Garqi with Horn, in an effort to escape the Imperial persecution on the planet, and met Captain Dromath. They fell in love and got married, having a son named Rade before Dromath died in the battles against Grand Admiral Thrawn. Dynba returned to Garqi after his death, but was killed in the initial stages of Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the planet. Her legacy lived on in her son, Rade, who opened her storehouses of supplies and weapons and started an underground resistance against the Vong. (SWJ7, TFE, DTR)
Tescia  
this young Ferroan girl revealed that Obi-Wan Kenobi had once been on Zonama Sekot, when Luke Skywalker and the his fellow Jedi located the planet during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. Like many Ferroan children, Tescia had heard the stories of Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi from her parents. She held none of the bitterness toward the Jedi that her parents did, however, never having experienced one of the many Crossings Zonama Sekot had taken to escape the rest of the galaxy. After Sekot decided to help the Jedi Knights end the conflict with the Yuuzhan Vong, Tescia declared that the first order of business should be the reclamation of Coruscant. She had heard of the city-world from the stories of Anakin Skywalker, and hoped one day to see the world herself. (FH3)

Teshik, Osvald  
this Imperial Grand Admiral was in command of the fleets which patrolled Darpa and Bormea Sectors during the height of the New Order. Teshik had been promoted to the position of Grand Admiral after Emperor Palpatine sent him on a doomed mission against a Hapan battle fleet. Teshik managed to survive, but the majority of his body sustained permanent damage and had to be cyborged. This sudden change turned Teshik inward, and he completely cut himself off from any form of emotion. Palpatine then personally charged Teshik with security in the Ringali Shell, and threatened to execute Teshik if the situation with the privateer vessel Far Orbit wasn't resolved. At the Battle of Endor, Teshik was aboard the second Death Star when the Alliance attack. As the station crumbled around him, Teshik was pinned beneath a falling column. Only a construction worker stopped to help him, freeing teshik and dragging him to safety. Old emotions began to resurface, and Teshik personally rallied the diminished Imperial fleet and continued to battle against the Alliance for more than three hours after the Death Star exploded. Teshik and his ship, the Eleemosynary were then captured by the Alliance, and Teshik was executed for crimes he committed in the name of the Empire. (FOP, SWI66)

Tessek  
a Quarren who was one of Jabba the Hutt's Chief Lieutenants at his palace on Tatooine, Tessek was involved in a number of intrigues. He was working with Prefect Talmont in a plot to kill Jabba, while secretly bribing Talmont's men into killing both Jabba and Talmont. He would then sell any and all of Jabba's criminal empire to Lady Valarian. He planned to keep most of Jabba's "clean" business operations for himself. He had already manipulated many of these businesses into lucrative ventures, with Jabba's blessing. It was Tessek, however, who handled their day-to-day operation, not Jabba, although Jabba was the one listed as the owner. Tessek had managed to bribe into employment many of Jabba's henchmen, including Ree-Yees, Barada, and many of the Weequays. However, when Tessek encountered a disembodied B'omarr monk who seemed to known all of his plans, Tessek began to panic. He had planted a bomb on Jabba's supply skiff, which he would explode when Jabba left the palace. His plan was to have Talmont intercept the barge at Jabba's Mos Eisley warehouse, where both would die. However, the presence of Leia Organa and Luke Skywalker in the palace put many of Tessek's plans in disarray. He tried to warn Jabba of the danger posed by the Alliance, hoping to keep the Hutt in Mos Eisley. Jabba, though, began to distrust Tessek, and ordered him to accompany the sail barge to the Pit of Carkoon. Tessek was trapped. It was Tessek who finally put all the pieces of Luke Skywalker's plan to free Han Solo and destroy Jabba, but the only audience he could find to hear him out was Ephant Mon, who later linked Tessek to an Imperial plot to destroy Jabba. Tessek tried to escape the palace, but he was intercepted by Ortugg, who held him in the palace until Jabba was ready to depart. Jabba then demanded that Tessek stay near him. When Skywalker's plan went into action, Tessek played along with it, shooting a Weequay who would have stopped Leia from strangling Jabba. Tessek managed to escape Jabba's sail barge before it exploded, and returned to the palace. There, he was captured by the B'omarr monks and his brain was disassociated from his body. As an acolyte, he learned that he had more in common with Skywalker, Organa, and Han Solo than he did with Jabba's ilk, and found the true meaning of freedom. (XW, MTS, TJP)

Tessent  
the history of this chalcedony idol was shrouded in mystery. During the early years of the New Republic, rumors and legends of the Tessent began to spring up throughout the Moddell Sector of the galaxy, after the Imperial presence in the galaxy was removed. It was believed to have been buried on Ast Kikorie, in the tomb of a Dark Jedi, or hidden in a mine on Vasha. These tales and many others drew treasure seekers to the Moddell Sector throughout the era of the New Order, but the Tessent was never found. As more and more lore about the Tessent became known, it was revealed that there were actually two Tessents. Both appeared to be birds with feline heads, but one was attributed to the Ayrou of Maya Kovel, while the other was a representation of the guardian of the ancient Kings of Archais who united Alsakan under a common leader. The Alsakan Tessent was a symbol of patriotism, although many treasure hunters believed that it was also the key to unlocking an ancient storehouse full of riches. Modern rumors pointed to the presence of at least one of the Tessents somewhere in the Kuna systems located in Moddell Sector. (GMR9)
Tesser  
this X'Ting warrior was the first of Jesson Di Blinth's hive-brothers to attempt to locate the hidden eggs of the royal line, during the last years of the Old Republic. Tesser had managed to penetrate the Hall of Heroes, but was unprepared for the attacks of the huge worms that were hidden beneath it. Tesser was unable to defeat the worms, so he strapped himself to a high crevice and waited for another chance to escape. Unfortunately, no such chance ever came, and no other X'Ting could locate him, and so Tesser died in his position. Later, Jesson discovered Tesser's body during his own attempt to locate the eggs.

this Imperial Captain commanded the 37th Imperial Fighter Wing aboard the Abrogator during the early years of the New Order. He was in command of the fleet which subdued the Lortan fanatics during the Reslian Purge. However, his pilots felt no loyalty to him during the battles because Tessra was a few weeks from completing his tour of duty, and held back in order to avoid being killed. His place as leader of the 37th was eventually taken by Soontir Fel, and Tessra was given command of a group sent to destroy several Alliance outposts. However, many of his missions ended in failure, and he was re-assigned to the 37th. Fel stepped aside to allow Tessra to take command, while Fel opted to remain a pilot. (MBF)

Testing Screen  
this device, also known as an image emitter, was developed by the Jedi Council to test the telepathic abilities of Jedi trainees. It had no buttons or controls, and was manipulated solely via the Force. Contained in the memory banks of the screen were thousands of pictures, which could be displayed randomly or chosen by the user through the Force. This assured that a trainee couldn't oversee what the Master was doing, and guess at a correct answer. Using the screen, a Master could project into it a succession of images, which the trainee would have to interpret via their connection to the Force. (SW1, IG1, PJSB)
Teta  
this strong-willed female warrior conquered the system of stars and planets now known as the Empress Teta System, many millennia before the Galactic Civil War. In what historians refer to as the First Unification Wars, Teta conquered seven major systems and their primary worlds, including the Koros System. She moved her seat of power to the city of Cinnagar, on Koros Major, and ruled with a fair but strict hand some 5,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. She was aided in her unification of the systems by the Jedi Knights, who realized that stability in the region would allow it to join the galactic community and benefit from trade and commerce. She was assisted by Memit Nadill and Odan-Urr, whom she trusted implicitly. So, when Odan-Urr had a vision foretelling the rise of the Sith Empire, Teta believed him and took him to Coruscant to tell the rulers of the galaxy. When they laughed at him and believed him to be an impulsive young Jedi, Teta returned to Cinnagar to prepare her worlds for the attack. Shortly before the Sith rose up, Jori Daragon returned to Cinnagar and was shot down over Teta's palace. The arrival of the frightened young woman only hardened Teta's resolve to protect her worlds. In what became known as the Great Hyperspace War, the Tetan forces - led by Jori Daragon, using information provided by her brother, Gav - soundly defeated the Sith fleet near the Denarii Nova. She rewarded Jori by giving her the rights to own and operate Aarrba the Hutt's starship repair facility. Teta was succeeded by a number of heirs, but over the centuries the government became fragmented. (DE1, GAS, FOSE, SWJ14, PH)
Tet-Ami  
known as the Time Guardian, this was the unusual being who appeared on the planet Benja-Rihn some 4,000 years before the Battle of Naboo, and helped the natives of Carthas defeat a swarm of savage beasts. Tet-Ami was rumored to control the Orb of Passage, which in turn could control time itself. In a strange twist of reality, Tet-Ami was actually the Jedi Master, Mace Windu. Legends and prophecies predicted that Mace Windu would return the Orb of Passage to the Temple of Tet-Ami, and the Jedi Council guarded the Orb while awaiting the birth of Mace Windu. They then bided their time, never interfering but monitoring the progress of Windu's training. Only when Mace Windu became a full Jedi would the Council relax. Their time to act came when Kruy Mulacks discovered the Temple of Tet-Ami on Benja-Rhin, and the Council had to return the Orb to its resting place. Mace Windu was sent to Benja-Rihn, where he entered the Temple and restored the Orb. It was during this mission that the Orb drew him back in time, where he was able to rescue the natives of Carthas from the attack of the savage beasts. (T13)

aristocrats from the Empress Teta system who turned to the Dark Side of The Force. (DE1, DLS)
Tetan Interceptor  
originally known as the Koros Interceptor, this planetary defense fighter was developed in the wake of the Great Hyperspace War on the planet Koros Major. When the planet was renamed Empress Teta, the ship became known as the Tetan Interceptor. The four-winged fighter was distinguished by the forward mandibles that protected the cockpit, and which housed the communications and sensor systems. A laser cannon was mounted at the tip fo each wing, and an ion cannon was mounted on the nose of the ship. From tip to tail, the Tetan Interceptor measured 14.2 meters in length. The ship required a pilot and co-pilot to operate. Because its primary mission profile was planetary defense, the Tetan Interceptor was not equipped with a hyperdrive. (PH)
Tetan Shocktroopers

Teth  
this planet was controlled by Moff Sarn Shild during the early years of the New Order. He had a palatial estate on the planet, and used it as a gathering place for the fleet which attacked Nar Shaddaa. Teth was located in the Outer Rim Territories, near both the Corporate Sector and Hutt space, and so was strategic to Shild's attack on Nar Shaddaa. Teth's location led its leaders to believe that it was safe from Imperial domination. Bria Tharen met with the planet's leaders, hoping to incite them to open rebellion, but she failed. Boba Fett tracked her here, but lost her when she left the meeting. (THG, RD)

(SWJ11)
Teyr  
a Fallanassi school world, Teyr was the site of a devastating battle during the Clone Wars, in which Separatist forces handily defeated the clone troopers of the Army of the Republic. Many decades later, Teyr became a boom world after the Battle of Endor, and much of its economic growth was a result of increased tourism. However, the natives didn't tolerate off-worlders very well, and required that visitors abide by a series of visitors' guidelines. The local police forces tended to favor natives over off-worlders in any dispute, and they subtly encouraged visitors not to stay on Teyr too long. (BTS, SOL, SHPT)
Teyr  
this heavy battle cruiser was one of the many ships that made up the Old Republic's space fleet during the height of the Clone Wars.

Thaere Privo  
this was the second world of the Thaere System. During the Old Republic, this temperate world was populated by Bothans, Humans, and Sullustans, and was the base of the Thaereian Military. The Thaere System was located along the Corellian Spine, providing easy access to and from Thaerae Privo and the neighboring Cularin System. Because of its proximity to the Corellian Spine, Thaere Privo became a regular, though undistinguished, trading center for the surrounding systems. During the years following the Battle of Naboo, the Thaereians began to make overt motions toward controlling the Cularin System, despite reassurances to the contrary from Thurm Loogg. The exact intentions of the Thaereian Military were unknown to the natives of Cularin, although many feared that the Thaereians were in league with Count Dooku and the Separatists. When the Clone Wars broke out, the government of Thaere Privo applied for, and received, a Republic Charter for defense of the Cularin System, giving them complete military control over the system with the blessing of the Old Republic. (LFCW)
Thaereian Conflict  
this was the term used by Cularin historians to describe the period of history in which the Thaereian Military took control of the Cularin System, during which the natives of the Cularin System fought back with every resource at their disposal and eventually expelled the Thaereians from their system. The Thaereian Conflict began shortly before the onset of the Clone Wars, and ended at their height. Because of this, many natives of the Cularin System equated the Clone Wars with the Thaereian Conflict, and believed that the Clone Wars would end soon after the defeat of the Thaereians. (LFCW)
Thaereian Military  
this police organization's stated mission was "to protect the citizens of Cularin from domestic disturbances localized in the asteroid belt." Active during the decades leading up to the Battle of Naboo, the Thaereian Military was one of the many groups which handled intra-system military defense, before the Old Republic consolidated such control under their own military. Originally based on the three planets of the Thaere System, as well as the moon of Lonus Woud, the Thaereian Military was considered overly large for the system it protected, even during its earliest stages. The Military later expanded beyond its system boundaries, to fill the void which existed before the Old Republic began taking an interest in the defense of individual systems. This was especially true in the Cularin System, where the population became more and more lawless over the centuries, as smugglers and crimelords established bases in the Cularin System's asteroid belt. The Thaeraian Military appointed to protect the Cularin System by the Galactic Senate, much to the chagrin of the Cularin natives. Some time later, it was discovered that the Thaereians had been working with Eelo Begraas in developing starfighter attack techniques, although their exact nature and necessity were unknown. When Cularin suddenly disappeared from the system, then reappeared just as suddenly, the Cularin Militia discovered that the Thaereians had brought in a huge number of starships to the Cularin System. While the Thaereian Military, under the command of Admiral Jir Tramsig, claimed that the build-up was for the protection of the Cularin System after the near-disaster on Cularin, the Cularin Militia remained on high alert in case a war was started. Despite assurances from the Thaereian leaders that there were just 10,000 troops protecting Cularin, underground sources discovered that more than 173,000 troops were actually ready for battle. The revelation of this fact, coupled with the existence of The Burnout space station, led many Cularin natives to believe the Thaereian Military was not what it seemed. After rumors of Thaere's ties to the InterGalactic Banking Clan were reported on Eye on Cularin, open opposition to the Thaereian Military began to grow. Graffiti and stickers with the letters TINYF - standing for "Thaere Is Not Your Friend" - began to show up all over Cularin. The true depth of Thaere's alliance with the Separatists was revealed when Operation False Horizon was launched. With the onset of the Clone Wars, the Thaereian Military applied for and received military authorization to defend the Cularin System under a Republic Charter, much to the dismay of the inhabitants of the Cularin System. This action effectively meant that the entire system was under the control of the Thaereians, ostensibly with the full support of the Old Republic. (LFC, LFCW)
Thaffal  
this Korunnai was one of the Akk Guards who served under Kar Vastor, on the planet Haruun Kal, druing the years leading up to the Clone Wars. When Jedi Master Mace Windu arrived on the planet to recover Depa Billaba, Thaffal was one of several Akk Guards who physically opposed Windu's attempts. When Thaffal challenged Windu, the Jedi Master simply head-butted Thaffal in the nose. Despite a badly broken nose, Thaffal continued to serve Vastor, and made sure to show Windu his anger at every moment. However, when Master Windu decided to win the Summertime War by defeating the Separatist forces supporting the Balawai, Thaffal and the Akk Guards made sure to take their own fight to the Balawai. In the attempt to stop Windu's plans to reach the droid control system in Pelek Baw, Thaffal and the Akk Guards attacked the clone troopers of the Army of the Republic who were supporting the Jedi. In the battle, Thaffal was shot in the knee and then killed by Nick Rostu. (SHPT)
Thaffe  
this Imperial Navy drill instructor was accused of murder on an orbital station during his hitch. Spruch Goa was the Intelligence investigator at the time, and he solved the crime, absolving Thaffe from any guilt. When they both were discharged, they teamed up and joined the local Sector Rangers. When they began investigating a counterfeit credit scam set up by Jabba the Hutt, they met Dyyz Nataz. All three were captured by Gank Killers and tortured, although none of them revealed any useful information. The Ganks then made the three play sabacc to see who would be killed first. Thaffe threw the game to save Goa, and was shot on the spot. Goa and Nataz went berserk, killing the Ganks and destroying Jabba's palace. (DESB)

Many other races likened their facial features to those of the Gungans, although the Thawkaash ears were much smaller. The hair on the head of a Thakwaash was considered quite beautiful, being full-bodied and deeply colored. One of the unique things about the Thakwaash was that each individual was a collection of separate minds, any one of which can take control of the individual's mind and act. (WS, GMR9)

Thal K'sar  
this Bith artisan created the unusual hyperwave transceiver created for the mechno-chair of Nute Gunray, during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. Thal had spent the last fifteen years hiding on Escarte, hoping to escape notice. Just before Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi located Thal on Escarte, the Bith was arrested on a series of trumped-up charges, although it was clear to everyone that the Bith was going to be executed to keep his secrets safe. Thal was despondent, and was reluctant to assist the Jedi in any way that might hasten his demise. However, with the help fo Travale, they were able to escape the prison facility and flee Escarte. Once they were free, Thal revealed that he had actually built two of the transceivers, and both were delivered about a year before the Battle of Naboo. One of them he provided to the Xi Charrians who built the mechno-chair. The other he transported to Raith Sienar. Thal then provided the Jedi with the name Fa'ale Leh, the Twi'lek who transported Sienar's prototype Infiltrator to Darth Sidious. (LEV)

After the Empire forcibly disbanded the Legion, Thall fled the sector and stayed one step ahead of the Empire by seeking employment as a mercenary. However, he found himself fighting battles against cultures that were unprepared for modern warfare, so Thall sought out more noble work. He was eventually hired by the New Cov Boimolecule Company as a security officer, but this was not what he had in mind. He left that job and became a part of the more "civilized" warfare of organized crime. He was discovered by Saujutta-Ok-Topii when he was trying to neutralize a Syndicate One operation. The Pan-preneur and her opponent settled their difference without bloodshed, and she insisted that Thall become part of her team. He agreed, and became the Syndicate's weapons and tactical expert.

Thanas, Malinza  
the daughter of Gaerial Captison and Pter Thanas, she was four and one-half years old when Thrackan Sal-Solo rose to power on Corellia. After her father died of Knowt's Disease, and Gaeriel was killed at Corellia during the Battle of Fondor, Malinza was adopted by a well-placed Bakuran family. She was also sponsored by Luke Skywalker and his wife, Mara Jade Skywalker, as part of Luke's promise to Gaeriel that the child would be all right. Malinza was as beautiful as her mother, with her left eye being green and her right eye being grey. She was also a gifted musician, and received a prodigy chair with the Bakuran National Symphony. However, her experience with politics led her to form the Freedom movement, in an effort to ensure Bakura was able to stand on its own in the galaxy. Much of the impetus behind the Freedom movement came from the loss of Malinza's parents, especially Gaeriel Captison's death at Corellia. Malinza believed that Bakura had been forced to lend its warships to the Republic's efforts to smash the Sacorrian Triad, and hated being beholden to the Republic. She used her name and her contacts to ensure that Freedom was considered a legitimate organization, and began rallying the Bakuran people to work toward establishing their freedom from the New Republic and the rest of the galaxy. She secretly accepted funding from Deputy prime Minister Blaine Harris, realizing that Freedom couldnb't operate without credits to support its efforts. Inside, Malinza felt that it was in Bakura's best interests to join the New Republic in an effort to defeat the Yuuzhan Vong, but her belief in the Cosmic Balance made her oppose the Republic. She feared that other members of her family would die if the Republic successfully repelled the alien invaders. After Prime Minister Cundertol was exposed as a traitor to Bakura, Vyram and Malinza were sentenced to "rehabilitation" for their part in the Freedom movement. In order to prove their innocence, they had to prove that the money Cundertol stole from the Bakuran treasury was used to finance his human-replica droid body and his plans with the Ssi-ruuk. (AS, BP, NEGC, FH2)
Thanas, Pter  
this Imperial Navy Commander was stationed at Bakura after he refused to destroy a Talz village on Alzoc III. While on Bakura, he was the commanding officer aboard the Dominant. Thanas had been assigned to monitor the mining operations on Alzoc III, and discovered that the native Talz worked harder if they were fed more food. He arranged his budgets, and nearly tripled the output of the operation. When a new commanding officer reduced the food allotments to the Talz, the Talz leader protested. The new commander ordered Thanas to wipe out the village, and he refused. While on Bakura, he began questioning his belief in the Emperor's New Order. After the attack by the Ssi-ruuk and the Alliance's offer of aid, Thanas only became more disturbed by the New Order's ideal. When the battle was over, he gave up his Imperial commission and joined the Alliance. He remained on Bakura, helping Gaerial Captison restore the planet's government. Their relationship blossomed, and they were married eight years after the Ssi-ruuk invasion. Their marriage produced a single daughter, Malinza, before Thanas was diagnosed with Knowt's disease. The disease took his life when Malinza was three, following Gaerial's unsuccessful bid for re-election as Prime Minister. (TB, AS, TBSB)

He argued that the Consortium should remain neutral, since the Yuuzhan Vong has thus far left the Hapes Cluster alone. Thane and his supporters formed a sizable portion of the Consortium, and threatened to keep the Hapans out of the struggle. However, he challenged Prince Isolder to a duel, after Isolder confronted him. Isolder won the challenge, forcing Thane to throw his vote toward helping the New Republic.

Tharen, Bria  
this young Corellian woman was the daughter of Renn and Sera Tharen. A student of archaeology, she was fascinated by the ways of the Jedi Knights, and studied anything and everything about the Clone Wars. At seventeen, though, she decided that her life was lacking something. Just after completing her undergraduate studies in preparation for advanced schooling on Coruscant, she sold her jewelry and joined the religious colony on Ylesia to begin worshipping the Oneness. She became deeply addicted to the Exaltation performed by the t'landa Til, and so worked extra hard in the spice mines, hoping to achieve a higher state of understanding. It was about a year after she joined the colony that she met Han Solo. Their friendship grew steadily, much to Bria's dismay, for she was a devoted follower of the t'landa Til religion. However, it was Han who discovered her love of archaeology, and this led to Teroenza assigner her the position of archival and cataloguer of his collection fo treasures. Bria was happiest at this point as a pilgrim, and allowed herself to become more and more attached to Han. When Han told her of the true nature of the Ylesian colonies, she initially thought he was lying in order to win her over. She eventually came to realize that he was right after forcing herself to observe the t'landa Til during Exaltations, and worked with Han to escape from the planet. After attending the wedding of Muuurgh and Mrrov on Togoria, they returned to Bria's family holdings on Corellia. There, Han's years of swoop riding and scheming with Garris Shrike came back to haunt him, as Bria's brother and former fiancι' recognized him as someone else. They were forced to leave Corellia, but not without the support of her fatherm, Renn. They went to Coruscant, where the t'landa Til and the Hutts tried to capture them for their escape from Ylesia. Bria, burdened by the emotional detachment from the Exaltation and by the presumed impediment to Han's career, left him one day and returned on her own to Corellia. After this, Bria met up with Lanah Malo, and began a crusade against the Hutts and the t'landa Til. She remained on or near Corellia for four years, working with underground resistance there, then disappeared. She resurfaced on Devaron, and was nearly discovered by Han, who was there looking for work. Bria had been serving as Admiral Trefaren's assistant. At this time, Aruk the Hutt placed a 50,000-credit bounty on her live capture. Bria eventually joined the Alliance, and rose quickly through the ranks. She was the mastermind behind the Red Hand Squadron, and was the primary proponent of the tactics used in the Battle of Ylesia. She was successful in bringing down the Besadii operation there, and secured a huge amount of funding for the Alliance be taking artifacts, spice, and loose credits from the operations there. This angered Han and the smugglers who helped in the battle, for they thought they were going to be paid. This was the final time she parted ways with Han. She then accepted an assignment to support the resistance on Toprawa, where they had received the plans fo the first Death Star. As the Empire tracked the plans to the planet, they struck with incredible force. Most of Red Hand Squadron was killed supporting the resistance, and Bria took a suicide capsule before she could be captured. Boba Fett delivered the news of her death to Han on Tatooine, shortly before Han accepted Ben Kenobi's offer for transportation to Alderaan. (TPS, THG, RD)
Tharen, Pavik  
Bria Tharen's brother, Pavik had many of the physical and personal traits of his mother, Sera. A short, thin young man with green eyes and dark hair, Pavik simply wanted to maintain the status quo within the family, which primarily meant that he could live a sedentary life of luxury. When Bria returned from Ylesia with Han Solo, Pavik was suspicious of the young man, both from a selfish desire to protect his wealth and from genuine concern for his sister. Later, it was Pavik who recognized Han from one of the many scams he ran with Garris Shrike, precipitating Han and Bria fleeing Corellia. (TPS)
Tharen, Renn  
this young Corellian man started out as a pilot for a shipping company. A shrewd businessman as well as a pilot, Renn worked his way the corporate ladder until he eventually owned the operation. A private man, Renn bought a lrage tract of land for family estate as a buffer between himself and his neighbors. Renn married a young woman named Sera, who bore him two children: a son named Pavik and a daughter named Bria. Sera's social machinations grated on Renn, who was unable to confront his wife until Bria returned from Ylesia with Han Solo. Renn felt a bond with Han, and recognized that the young man - no matter what his past held - could someday become a true hero in his own right. He chided both Sera and Pavik for worrying only about their inheritances, and chose to provide Han and Brea with enough credits to get to Coruscant and try to establish a life for themselves. When Bria decided to leave Han, feeling that she was holding him back, she asked her father to help get Han off the wanted list and set up with enough credits to live happily. Renn obliged, feeling for them both in their time of need. (TPS)
Tharen, Sera  
whatever emotional gifts Sera had as a young Corelliam woman, she soon lost them after achieving her goal: marrying into a wealthy family. This she accomplished when she married Renn Tharen, the president of a prominent shipping company. She then set out to achieve social standing by waving her husband's wealth in everyone's face. Her social responsibilities demanded a family setting, and she gave Renn two children - Pavik and Bria. However, while Pavik seemed to take to his mother's pettiness, it drove Bria away. After Sera manipulated Bria into an engagement with Dael Levare, Brea fled the family to join the pseudo-religious colony on Ylesia, and was not heard from for a year. When she returned, Sera immediately began to harp on her daughter. It didn't help that Bria returned with Han Solo, a youth Sera held in low regard because of his origins as a street orphan. Sera invited Dael into the house for lunch, in hopes of driving Han away in shame. When Pavik recognized Han as a con artist who used to work for Garris Shrike, Sera became increasingly agitated. She demanded that he leave, but Renn intervened. Angered and annoyed at Sera's lack of family values, Renn blamed her for Bria's disappearance and praised Han for returning her. Sera was unable to comprehend this, and fled to her rooms. (TPS)

The Battle of Ahto: A Memoir  
this history of the Imperial occupation of the planet Manaan and the effects it had on the Selkath was written by Fewash Welko. The book chronicled the Selkath plans for rebellion, as well as the sudden appearance of a mysterious stranger who knew as much about the Order of Shasa as the Selkath. After the Battle of Endor, the book was translated from the Selkath language into Basic, for reading and investigation by the rest of the galaxy. It was then that people realized the Selkath had been visited by Darth Vader, not a saving Jedi as many had suspected. The memoirs told of the swift way in which the Selkath infiltrated the Imperial base and eliminated any opposition. Their attack was so fast that the base Commander could only order a retreat in the face of it, leaving the tourists who had traveled to Manaan behind. However, the Selkath didn't stop at killing the Imperials. They found themselves possessed by a bloodlust that consumed them, and they slaughtered the innocent tourists as well. Jedi scholars came to believe that Vader had tricked them into the attacks, in an effort to force the Selkath down a path toward the Dark Side of the Force, where they might have become a powerful weapon for Emperor Palpatine.

The Trickery of Vosdia Nooma  
this Rodian drama was written and produced during the years leading up to the Clone Wars, and was generally considered more of a political statement than a pure Rodian drama. Written by Hishinu Booj and endorsed by Senator Onaconda Farr, The Trickery of Vosida Nooma was laden with symbolism and allegory that was at once entertaining and a heavy-handed propaganda machine for the Military Creation Act. The play revolved around the title character, whose daughter is poisoned by the bite of a bug, an event which draws the community together. Nooma then begins using his new-found "fame" to spout political rhetoric, and eventually is eleceted baron of the town of Yusk. He begins heavily taxing the local farmers, despite the growing unrest being stirred by a noted soldier. The soldier begins building his own army, while Nooma is unable to decide whether or not to fight back. A Paladin character arrives to urge Nooma to build up his own army, in direct parallels to Chancellor Palpatine's call for an Army of the Republic. The remainder of the drama centers on the bloody conflict that follows, along with Nooma's eventual downfall. The bloody conflict was meant to indicate the future of the Old Republic, should the Military Creation Act not be passed by the Galactic Senate. (HNN5)

It was a royal family tradition that each new ruler of the planet Naboo add a tower or turret to the Palace, and to enhance the beauty of existing structures. (IWE1)
Theed Palace Space Vessel Engineering Corps  
this Naboo manufacturer created most of the starship designs used in the royal volunteer fleet, including the J-type transport used by Queen Amidala and the N-1 fighter. (X1)
Theed School of Technology and Engineering  
this was one of the most prestigious schools for technology and engineering, located on the planet Naboo in the capital city of Theed. (GMR1)
Theed Spaceport  
built with speed and urgency in the years following the Battle of Naboo, the Theed Spaceport was a utilitarian spaceport designed to handle the traffic of visitors and tourists as well as three diplomats: Queen Jamillia, Senator Padme' Amidala, and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. The Naboo built the spaceport on the lowlands below the cliffs that supported the city of Theed and the royal hangar. Construction of the spaceport was funded by the reparations received from the settlements provided after the Trade Federation's invasion of Naboo. The builders maintained a certain level of aesthetic, however, given the main platform a sweeping, elegant curve that matched the cliffside. (IWE2)
Theek  
this was the Jawa word for "run." (T4)
Theelin  
a near-human species that has been bred out of existence. (DE1)
Theen Fida  
this Anx was a student of the Force, training under Jedi Master Tsui Choi in the period leading up to the Battle of Naboo. Theen Fida and Tsui Choi were part of a team dispatched to Yitheeth to locate the Yinchorri command center. After discovering that the Yonchorri were not on the water-covered world, the team traveled to Yinchorr itself to meet up with Mace Windu's team. Unfortunately for Master Choi, Theen Fida was killed by Yinchorri warriors while guarding the Jedi's remaining starship. (AOW)
Theen Ocean  
this was the smallest of the three seas located on the planet Genesia. (FBS)
Thek, Gadon  
this dark-skinned man, a native of the Lower City of Taris, was the leader of the Hidden Bek swoop gang during the height of the Great Sith War, more than 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. As a member of the Hidden Bek, Gadon had seen the Black Vulkars move in an take control of the planet, and he held no love whatsoever for Davik Kang. (KOTOR)
Thel  
this was one of the most common names given to male Corellians. (GMR9)
Thelaa  
this contemporary of Hari Seldona was a student at Alderaan University, and a secret dissident during the rise of the New Order. She was a quiet student of music, and heralded from a backwater world that has thus far avoided Imperial invasion. She had a good deal of promise, but the oppression of the Empire seemed to dampen her creative spirit. It was later discovered that many of her later works were actually plagiarized versions of works created by the forgotten composer Salyer. She was expelled, and she fled into the wilderness where she had been secretly running guns to the Alliance. She was captured by Imperial agents who had been following her, and was subjected to deep interrogation. The agents tried to have her transported to the newly-arrived Death Star for further interrogation, but their calls were ignored. Thelaa and her torturers were killed when the Death Star destroyed Alderaan. (ISU)
Thella  
this woman led a group of infiltrators to Kelada, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (SWJ6)
Thel-Tanis, Darra  
this young girl was training to be a Jedi Knight, under the tutelage of Soara Antana, at the same time Anakin Skywalker was training with Obi-Wan Kenobi, some five years after the Battle of Naboo. She was easily distinguished by her bright, copper- and -gold-colored hair, and by the ribbons she wove into her Padawan braid. Darra was badly injured during a mission to rescue Old Republic scientists on Haariden, after taking a blaster bolt in the thigh. Note that Jedi Quest: The False Peace indicates that Darra was injured on Norah. The bolt had been laced with a chemical charge, and she went into shock almost immediately. She recovered from her injuries, and later helped her Master oversee the relief efforts on the planet Nuralee. Despite her trials, Darra was known among her fellows studetns as a bright and shining individual, full of life and gusto that was infectious. Darra and Master Antana were later chosen as part of a four-pair team to travel to Korriban and apprehend Granta Omega and Jenna Zan Arbor. Darra, along with Anakin and fellow students Tru Veld and Ferus Olin, accompanied their Masters to Korriban. On the remote world, they found themselves besieged by the Dark Side of the Force, and the Padawans were helpless as Anakin began to argue with them at every turn. They realized that Ferus - not Anakin - had been chosen for early promotion to the rank of Jedi Knight, but couldn't understand why Anakin would allow his anger to come before the mission. After Tru was hurt, the team regrouped for a final attack. In the battle, Darra was forced to leap in front of several blaster bolts to protect Ferus. She took the blasts in the chest, and later died from her injuries. Note that Jedi Quest: The False Peace also names this character as Darra Haariden. (JQ1, JQ4, JQ9, JQ10)
Thelvin Order of Barundi  
this sect sought to completely isolate itself from the rest of galactic society, several thousand years before the Battle of Yavin. To ensure their isolation, the Thelvins even developed their own language, allowing them to speak amongst themselves without being understood. The basis of the Thelvin Order was the attainment of perpetual happiness, and their society's laws were very strict in promoting this happiness. Any member of society which did not work toward harmony was subject to immediate capital punishment, and were beaten to death with thorny flowers which exuded a deadly poison. (UYV)
Themfar  
this was a potent neurotoxin developed by the Malkite Poisoners, during the height of the New Order. (EGW, AEG)
Themion  
this man was a member of the police force on Eriadu, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Themion was in charge of the interrogation of Anakin Solo and Tahiri Veila, after they tried to save the life of Kelbis Nu. (EVR)
Themog  
this former member of the Corellian Security Force was drummed out of the force after being wounded in an argument with a suspect. The injury left him without the use of his left eye, which he covered with a black patch like a pirate. The suspect admitted that he had tried to bribe Themog into releasing him, but later testified that Themog tried to raise the amount of the bribe before accepting it. Exiled from law enforcement, Themog eventually turned to a life of crime, and became the crimelord controlled who much of the underground activity on the planet Chrona, during the early years of the New Republic. Themog worked to strengthen his position of power by bribing Arno Gallorr and Moira Kruger, hoping to counteract the work of Mortris Gallorr to free the planet from criminal control. Unknown to most, he was also romantically involved with Moira, and convinced her to allow him to use the Grinder Dance Hall as a hideout. When Mortris began hiring mercenaries to protect the citizens of Corestrike, Themog kidnapped Mortris, his grandson Selmar, and his daughter-in-law Serise. He held them ransom against a group of determined freelance protectors, until his thugs were defeated and Themog was defeated in a firefight. (SWJ12)

Thennqora  
a alien race which greatly influenced Saffa paintings, after they made initial contact several millenia before the Galactic Civil War. (HTTE)
Thent Squadron  
this was a group of Army troopers dispatched by the Empire to overtake the New Republic base on Saarn, shortly after the re-appearance of Grand Admiral Thrawn. (SWJ6)
Theonnrl  
this alien was a noted forger who worked from a base on Balmorra during the early years of the New Republic. (GUN)
Theory of Universal Reference  
this was the name given to the scientific discoveries of the ancient Drall scientist Tiran, who proved that space and time were connected, and that the speed of light was an absolute bonudary that could not be crossed. His theories were proven some 10,000 years before the discovery of hyperspace, and were once deemed to be irrefutable. Millennia later, investigation into the Theory revealed that it did not preclude an object traveling faster than light; it just prohibited an object traveling at the speed of light. (MBS)
Theosidicc Sirrap Treblif  
this Elomin author wrote The History of Two Peoples, One Planet. (GG12)
Theran Listeners  
the members of this cult of Force-sensitive individuals could sometimes hear the voices of the Spook crystals through the Force. Found mainly on the planet Nam Choris, they were the latter-day versions of the prophet Theras, and often had healing powers as well as insight and foresight. (UF)
Therangen  
this black rock was used as a fuel source by many primitive races, but was known to be unstable and volatile if handled improperly. (KOTOR)
Therans  
this group of Oldtimers from the planet Nam Chorios followed the word of the prophet Theras, and strove to keep inbound and outbound traffic away from the planet. The exact reason for their actions was lost over several centuries, but the Therans continued to drive off larger ships, an action deemed by the Newcomers as an attempt to keep Nam Chorios isolated from the galaxy. A civil war of sorts between the Therans and the Newcomers raged for a number of years until the basis for the feud was revealed by Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa-Solo. (POT)
Theras  
one of the original political prisoners left on the planet Nam Chorios by the Grissmaths, Theras was attuned to the Force. He was contacted by the Spook crystals, which had realized that the drochs used to kill the prisoners were growing in power. The Spooks feared that the drochs would leave Nam Chorios and inflict the galaxy, and used Theras as a sort of prophet. He brought word to the Oldtimers that the drochs could secret themselves on any ship leaving the planet, and that ships of large size could house enough drochs to consume the galaxy. Theras and his followers reworked the planetary defenses to fire on incoming and outgoing ships over a certain mass, in an effort to prevent the drochs from leaving. (POT)
Ther-das  
this Arcona was educated at the Lerct Historical Institute, before serving as the acquisitions director for the Zuliria Museum of Antiquities, working in the ancient weaponry department. During his studies at Lerct, Ther-das became addicted to salt, and spent many years trying to overcome his addiction. After growing tired of the routine at the museum, Ther-das gathered some acquaintences to him and formed the Zulirian Swordmasters. Originally dedicated to the study of weaponry, Ther-das began pushing the group to use their collected weapons and skills as vigilantes. (AIR)
Thergum Pits  
located on the planet Essowyn, this was the primary mining operation founded by Messert Mines Corporation. They purchased the rights to the Pits from the Tresycht nation of Saurtons, and used Tresycht forces to subjugate the nearby Yiszte nation to avoid any contention over ownership of the land. (PG1)

Thermajug  
this was a vessel that coud carry a beverage or soup and maintain its temperature over a long period of time. (SWJ2)
Thermal Bomb  
this was a form of explosive developed by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the height of the Clone Wars. Rather than exploding and spraying an area with shrapnel or other material, a thermal bomb detonated into a ball of incredible heat, burning everything within its blast radius into a charred husk. (MBS)
Thermal cape  
a poncho made from metallic foil and spider silk, it keeps the wearer's body heat inside. They are often called T-capes. (SME, COJ)
Thermal Detonator  
a round bomb used by smugglers and mercenaries, most of these weapons originated from a design first built on Talesia. They are essentially a casing which contained a shaped charge of baradium. The use of baradium made the weapon extremely dangerous, even for the being who threw it, as the element was highly unstable. Depending on the size of the charge, a thermal detonator would essentially atomize all material within a spherical area centered on the charge itself. Anything outside the range of the blast sphere remained virtually untouched. The baradium was activated by a switch, which would release a short burst of energy into the baradium mass, causing it to explode. (ROTJ, CPL, ROE, EGW)
Thermal Grenade  
this explosive device generated an intense ball of heat when detonated, literally melting everything in its blast radius. They were illegal to possess or use, during the height of the New Order. (UYV)
Thermal Mine  
this form of explosive device was employed in bringing down large buildings. It had a controllable blast, which enabled demolitions crews to safely bring down structures. (IA)
Thermal Shield  
developed some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, thermal shields were a form of personal shield that protected the user against intense differences in temperature. The primary motivation for these shields came from fiefighters and other groups that worked around open flames, although they were later modified for military use. The only drawback to a military thermal shield was that it offered no protection against projectile or energy weapons. (KOTOR)
Thermal suit  
a thin, lightweight coverall worn over normal clothing that provides protection from extreme temperatures. They are often referred to as T-suits. (SME, COJ)
Thermal Veristat  
this device was used in the construction of racing engines, and was responsible for regulating the internal temperature of these engines. Because of the incredible heat they generate, thermal veristats were required in podracer engines. (IG1)
Thermal Well  
this weapon was developed by the Alliance, in an effort to reduce the risks involved with using pure-baradium thermal detonators. Alliance technicians blended baradium with stabilized ytterbium, resulting in a denser explosive that ignited instead of exploding when energized. The thermal reaction is capable of generating thousands of degrees of heat in a short time, literally melting everything in its "blast radius." (ROE)
Thermaplast  
this material was used to form pre-fab shelters. (GG10)
Therma-slice  
this was a culinary device which used microfine heating lasers to cut through food and heat the individual slices. (HNN4)
Thermex  
a highly-combustible explosive. (POM)
Thermic Baster  
this was an outdated form of oven, used for slowly cooking meats. (IWE1)
Thermite  
an explosive material used by military commandos, thermite was transported in a gel form that allowed it to be poured into a vessel for remote detonation. (SWJ12, GMR1)
Thermite Boring Charge  
this directed explosive was used to destroy specific targets, such as locking mechanisms. The charge was positioned to bore into its target, destroying everything it encountered along its path. Thermite charges burned with an intensely bright light. (KT)
Thermocapsulary Dehousing Assistor  
an automaton used to break down heat-generating devices. They are menial laborers. C-3PO called R2-D2 one while R2-D2 was trying to escape from the Tantive IV. (SWN)
Thermocom  
this device is used to detect the operating temperature of machinery and equipment, in order to prevent them from overheating. The thermocom is connected by a shielded cable to onboard shutdown systems, which bring the equipment to a halt when the operating temperature reaches critical levels. The temperature levels can be set into the thermocom by the manufacturer, or modified by the user. Modifications to the temperature settings are highly discouraged, however. (RF)
Thermo-converter  
this is any device or material which generates electricity when heated. (GG2)
Thermoenergetic Screen  
this form of heat protection was developed by the Old Republic during the height of the Clone Wars. Using a thermoenergetic screen, a clone trooper could be encapsulated in a small pod, which could be ejected from a transport ship so that the trooper could reach a drop point on a planet's surface. This eliminated the need for large, expensive dropships that provided enemies with a large target. The small, expendable pods were hard to detect, allowing a trooper to reach the surface swiftly and undetected. The thermoenergetic screen deflected the incredible heat that was built up upon entry into a planet's atmosphere, keeping the trooper inside safe. (TCD)
Thermoguard Jumpsuit  
this expensive form of bodysuit was developed to allow the wearer to evade infrared and thermal-imaging scanners. The thermoguard suit was created with a surface cooling unit that maintained an external temperature equal to that of the wearer's environment. This meant that, to infrared and thermal sensors and other devices, the wearer was virtually invisible. (GMR6)
Thermon  
this planet is orbited by several moons made of pure methane. The methane exists in liquid form below the crust, and gravitation pressure often cracks this crust. The result is a spectacular display of methan geysers. (THG)
Thermoskin  
this was the high-tech bodysuit developed for starfighter pilots during the early years of the New Order. It allowed fighter pilots on deepspace missions to retain large amounts of body heat, which gave the pilot the option to divert some power from life support to shields. (EVR)
Thermosuit  
this specialized environment suit was designed to help a being survive in exceptionally cold environments. (HSR)
Thernbee  
this huge, four-legged creature was native to the mountains of Almania. They were covered with thick, white fur, and had small heads punctuated by short ears and striking blue eyes. Thernbees had a long, thin, prehensile tail which could be used like a whip. They drooled constantly, and needed sunlight in order to survive. They were semi-sentient and somewhat psychic, and were able to establish mental links to other beings with similar abilities. They consumed primarily leaves and vegetation, but would also eat the slimy slugs and snakes which inhabit the underbrush. They were very powerful, yet docile, creatures. The bite of the thernbee had a numbing effect on its victim, since the saliva of the thernbee had an anesthetic toxic in it. This caused the prey to stop moving, allowing the thernbee to kill it with little resistance. Because of their semi-sentient minds, Luke Skywalker petitioned the New Republic to ensure they were protected. (TNR, WOTC, PJSB)
Thes Cligris  
this Duros trader operated his business from a base onboard the Birthright, which he purchased just after the institution of the New Order. Although outwardly a businessbeing, Thes was also a supporter of the Alliance, and provided the Birthright as a transport whenever it was needed. (SOG)

Thesme Sector  
this sector of the galaxy was located on the Outer Rim Territories. (SWMW)
Thesme Trace  
this interstellar trade route intersected the Gordian Reach, along the Hydian Way, at the planet Thesme. (WOA26, SWMW)
Thespar Trode  
this female Ishi Tib was a friend of Danni Quee. Like Danni, Thespar found herself unemployed when New Republic Intelligence took over the work they had been doing to disrupt the gravitic devices of the Yuuzhan Vong. She ended up on Calamari in the wake of the Battle of Coruscant. (DW)
Thespian Union  
this was a group of students at Imperial Academies throughout the galaxy which put on plays and operas as part of their extracurricular activities. (IR)
Theta-288  
this was the callsign of the clone commando who was part of the squad assigned to protect Lorca Oviedo to a conference on Aviles Prime, during the height of the Clone Wars. On the return trip from Aviles Prime, Theta-288 and his comrades became expendable when Oviedo tried to fake an attack by Separatist forces near Asturias. Oviedo had been plotting to sell rigged weaponry to Wat Tambor and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, covering it up by appearing to survive a Separatist attack on his ship. The droid forces dispatched to Asturias were unable to destroy the clone commandos who were escorting Oviedo, as Theta-288 and a handful of his squadmates survived the crash-landing on the moon. They managed to reach Oviedo just as he was finalizing his plans with Tambor, and they took Oviedo prisoner. Theta-288 and his fellow clones struggled to return to Oviedo's ship, which was basically unharmed as part of the ruse, but they were continually harrased by battle droids. Ultimately, only Theta-288 survived to reach Coruscant with Oviedo. Once one Coruscant, Theta-288 turned Oviedo over to the authorities. (T22)
Theta-2Y  
this bacta transport ship was owned by Cargo Consolidated, Incorporated. It made regular runs from Mrlsst to the Core, stopped at several worlds along the Shapani Bypass. (TSIA)
Theta-class Barge  
this ship was designed by the Empire as a sort of dropship, although its primary mission was not to deploy troops into battlezones. Instead, the Theta-class barge was created to deploy AT-AT walkers into battle, with the support of Sentinel-class shuttles. (NEGV)
Theta-class Shuttle  
many considered the T-2c Theta-class shuttle to have been the precursor to the Lambda-class shuttle, since they shared many of the same design elements. The Theta-class shuttle was developed by Cygnus Spaceworks during the last years of the Old Republic, as a transport for diplomats and other luminaries. The lower two wings of the Theta-class shuttle were triangular in shape, and were capable of rotating up or down to assist with maneuvering. The upper wing was blade-shaped, and was mounted lengthwise atop the shuttle. Chancellor Palpatine had a specially-designed Theta-class T-2c shuttle built for his use as Darth Sidious by Cygnus Spaceworks, which was later modified by Warthan's Wizards to Palpatine's own specifications. Inside was a complete Sith medical facility, from which he could coerce his guests into doing his bidding. The basic Theta-class shuttle measured 18.5 meters in length as well as in height, and could accommodate up to sixteen passengers and fifty metric tons of cargo. The ship was equipped with a Class 1 hyperdrive, and was armed with two quad laser cannons and a rear-mounted laser cannon. (TCG10, X3, WOTC, SWDB)
Thetametabuterin  
this tasteless, chemical powder was used by the best poisoners in the galaxy. When added to certain meats, like the flesh of the Wroonian flycatcher, it could create a subtle poison that affected the mental stability of a human eater. (SESB)
Thetan nitakka, ko nakaza  
this Yevethan war cry is translated as "to the strongest of us, glory in the kill." (TT)
Thevaxan Marauder  
this predator was native to the swamps of the planet Gorsh. It wasn't very adept at stalking its prey, being a huge beast measuring up to eight meters tall at the shoulder and twenty meters in length. It was quite dim-witted, and could be easily tricked or confused. Note that Wedge's Gamble claims the Thevaxan Marauder was an expert at stalking its prey. (WG, PG1)
Thicklube  
this was a heavy, thick lubricant used aboard older starships during the last years of the Old Republic. (YDR)
Thickwood  
this species of tree grows on the planet Kubindi, and is named for its thick, radiation-absorbing bark. Thickwood trees are often the homes of the burrowing insects that make up much of the Kubaz diet. (SWJ10)

a pair of smugglers working for Jabba the Hutt just before the Battle of Yavin. They were spicejackers who worked in the Stenness System, and were usually armed with stolen Imperial weapons. (TME)
Thi'in Lis  
this Abinyshi served the Alliance as a Special Forces operative during the Galactic Civil War. (SWJ14)
Thiirn, Mosara  
this woman was, at one time, a Lieutenant in the Alliance's Special Force division. She deserted at the height of a pitched battle with the Assassin's Guild on Archais, and presented herself to Imperial Lieutnenant Colonel Covell. Luckily for the Alliance, she had not been intrusted with secret information, so her defection led to little initial damage. However, Thiirn later joined Hydrospeare Corporation's Design Team Beta, and her work was used against the Alliance in battle. (AIR)
Thik  
this weak-looking man, a native of the planet Typha-Dor, was a member of Shalini's resistance group during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. (JQ7)
Thikkiian Brandy

Thila  
the planet on which the Alliance reorganized, following the evacuation of the base on Yavin 4. Voren Na'al began investigating the heroes of the Battle of Yavin at this base. (MTS)
Thila  
this female Sullustan once sold slaves to Jabba the Hutt, only to discover that Jabba was serving them to his rancor for sport and entertainment. She suddenly became rich by selling holovids of the rancor's feedings about fifteen years before the Galactic Civil War. It was obvious that she cared little for the slaves she sold, which earned her the nickname "The Butcher." She was the Captain of the Arkanian Dawn, the Outer Rim's most feared slave ship. It was a well-known fact that anyone who was taken aboard the Dawn never returned. Of course, this was all the ultimate ruse, engineered by Thila and other anti-Imperials who saw the way Palpatine's New Order was treating aliens and promoting slavery. Thila used complex animation and filming to create the rancor holos, which she placed on the market herself. She then purchased the Dawn and began to make a bigger name for herself, spreading rumors about the slaves she picked up. In reality, the slaves she took into the Dawn were released onto Alliance safeworlds. Thila has liberated a multitude of slaves from Imperial and non-Imperial camps, helping to spread the word that the New Order should be overthrown. (GG9)
Thila Command Base  
this was the official name of the Alliance's base on the planet Thila, established in the wake of the Battle of Yavin. (SWJ11)
Thildas  
this Ebranite term describes a clan grouping. Each thildas represents about 20-30 Ebranite families who live and work together, in the same area. The clan's insignia is tattooed on the uppermost left arm of each Ebranite. (GG12)
Thilis-Brin  
this young Ishi Tib female joined the Alliance shortly after the Battle of Yavin, and quickly became one of the best Special Forces agents in her class. She attracted the notice of Dutra Zeneta, who recruited her to be the chief technician and procurement specialist for Shroud Team. She also served as the secondary foster agent, supporting the Rodian Dheendo. Much of her drive came from a desire to avenge her people and her homeworld against the Empire. (SWJ10)
Thilvera  
this was a common name among the Kilmaulsi race. (GORW)
Thimbus, Warl  
this Alliance trooper was a member of Parody Squad, at Taul, shortly before the base was destroyed by the Victory-class Star Destroyer Dominator. Thimbus was also Force-sensitive, and knew a little about the Jedi arts. (SWJ1)
Thimiar  
this small rodent was native to the planet Shili, and was the favored food of the Togruta race. Because the thimiar went into strange convulsions when bitten by a Togruta, many other beings believed that the Togruta actually poisoned the thimiar. This was proven to be false; the thimiar simply experienced post-mortem muscle contractions. (PJSB)
Thimram, Savuud  
one of the Emperor Palpatine's original Dark Side Adepts, Savuud Thimram was once native to the planet Chandrila. The son of a noble family, Savuud was discovered by Emperor Palpatine to have a strong connection to the Force. Palpatine ensured that he was taken to Byss, ostensibly as part of a pleasure trip, where Savuud was warped by the power of the Dark Side of the Force. Over time, he became one of Palpatine's most trusted students, and became the Dark Side Adept who oversaw the activities at The Emperor's Citadel on Byss. (DE1, DESB, PH)

this was a nickname used to describe ASP-series droids, and indicated their stick-like figures. (SSR)
Thine, Reggis  
this Imperial trooper was stationed at the Kuat Passenger Port as a security officer. Much of his work involved helping lost travellers find their connections, so he knew a great deal about the Port and the Kuat System in general. Despite his Imperial ties, Thine was more or less indifferent about the Galactic Civil War. (PSPG)
ThinHut  
this was a type of shelter used by scouts and explorers. It was quite small, providing only three cubic meters of space when erected, but could withstand most environments - although not hard vacuum - for 30 hours. It was made from the same material as a ThinSuit, which resisted tears and cuts. (GG8)
Thinin  
an Alliance Nebulon-B frigate destroyed during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE)
Thinker  
this man served under Commander Brion Peck, as part of the Alliance cell on Rafft during the years leading up to the Battle of Yavin. (SWJ3)
Thinking Garden  
this form of garden was popular on the planet Merisee. A thinking garden was often walled off from the surrounding land by a dense hedge of shurbbery, and contained waterfalls and fountains. Stone benches surrounded the waterworks, allowing visitors to relax and unwind to the bubbling of the water. Thinking gardens allowed visitors to escape from the outside world. (OE)
Thinskin  
this durable yet lightweight fabric was created for use by the Grand Army of the Republic, and was used primarily to create underwear and warm-weather clothing. (MBS)
ThinSuit  
a form of personal protection used by scouts and explorers, the Karflo ThinSuit was a lightweight fabric suit that resisted tears and rips, and provided up to 18 hours of protection in most atmospheric environments.

Third Army of Light  
this was one of the branches of the Army of Light, formed by the Jedi Knights to combat Darth Bane and his hordes of Sith devotees during the New Sith Wars. The Third Army of Light was led by Newar Forrth, and was victorious during one of the seven conflicts that formed the Battle of Ruusan. Unforturnately, Newar Forrth was killed in the fighting. (WOTC)
Third Battle Group  
one of the New Republic's five defensive fleets. (SOL)
Third Battle of Vontor  
this was the fateful battle in which Xim the Despot was finally defeated by Hutt forces, many years before the formation of the Old Republic. Xim had fought valiantly for several other battles, in an effort to take the planet, but a stalemate persisted. Eventually, Kossak the Hutt used a battle group formed from Vodran, Nikto, and Klatooinan forces to overcome Xim's legions, both on and above the planet Vontor. (HSL, GG12)
Third Battle of Yavin  
this was the name given to the struggle to defend the Jedi praxeum, located on Yavin 4, from the predations of Brakiss and the Second Imperium. Brakiss himself believed he was being summoned to Yavin 4 by the reborn Emperor Palpatine, but he later discovered that the Emperors presence was a sham, perpetrated by four former members of the Imperial Royal Guard. Three of them guarded a large meditation chamber, while the fourth used a vast collection of sound bites and holo-clips of Palpatine to create an illusion of his presence. Brakiss, as well as the entire crew of the Shadow Academy, were fooled by the ruse, until the Shadow Academy attacked Yavin 4 and the Jedi Academy. As Brakiss came to demand why Palpatine was ignoring him, he discovered the trickery of the four guards. He killed the three protectors in his anger, but the fourth escaped. He managed to activate the Shadow Academy's self-destruct systems before he fled, killing Brakiss in the explosion. (GMR5, JUS)

Third General Survey  
an Old Republic comprehensive examination of the galactic arms and the planets located in them. The survey, initiated some 123 years before the onset of the Clone Wars, discovered the planet Brath Qella, but the contact ship it requested took eight more years to reach the planet. By that time, asteroid impacts had destroyed the planet's ecosystem, and the Qella were extinct. The Third General Survey was 61% complete when the Clone Wars broke out and the survey was cancelled.

Third Vagaari War  
this was considered the last of the Vagaari Wars, which were fought between the Chiss and the Vagaari during the height of the New Republic. Although the Chiss ultimately won this battle, many of the ruling houses were depleted of manpower due to the casualties inflicted in the war. Chiss historians point to this war as the starting point of their conflict with the Colony, since those reduced houses turned to the Colony hives to acquire laborers. (DN1)
Thire  
this was the designation of one of the first clone troopers to graduate from the enhanced training developed for the Advanced Reconnaissance Commandos, which were created by a group of Coruscant-based Kaminoans for the Army of the Republic, during the early stages of the Clone Wars.

He was then placed in command of the red-armored shock troopers who were part of the Homeworld Security Command. In the wake of the First Battle of Coruscant, Thire was placed in command of the clone troopers who guarded Emperor Palpatine and his entourage. After Palpatine nearly defeated Jedi Master Yoda in a battle within the Senate Rotunda, Thire led the unsuccessful search for Yoda's body. (SWI74, IS3, SWDB)

Because of their histories and their political clout, the Thirty-Seven Families were considered the primary power-holders on Desevro. (GORW)
Th'iruckai  
this bipedal, reptilian race is native to the planet Th'irus. At this time of the Galactic Civil War, they were a bronze-age race which had developed a high degree of medical knowledge as well as skill in the use of poisons and neurotoxins. Groups of Th'iruckai banded together in tribes led by Teruks, and the tribes wages bloody wars against each other over the millennia. When the first explorers found their planet, the Teruks realized that they could gain an advantage over their rivals if they could obtain high-tech weapons. During the Galactic Civil War, a band of scouts landed on the planet and were fought over by several clans. The scouts, in talking to the teruks, realized that the inter-clan wars were being fought because of an ancient misunderstanding. The scouts worked with the tribes to establish a cease-fire and begin peace negotiations between the clans. (GMS)

this fire-blackened stump of an enormous wroshyr tree was one of the primary landing field maintained by the Wookiees of Rwookrrorro. It was here, in the wake of the Yuuzhan Vong surrender at Courscant some five years after their invasion of the galaxy began, that a monument to Chewbacca was erected. Carved from the branch of a huge wroshyr tree, the portrait of Chewbacca was created to honor his life and his contributions to peace in the galaxy. When Han Solo arrived to witness the dedication of the portrait, he brought with him his son Anakin's lightsaber, which had been recovered from the possession of Supreme Overlord Shimrra. With Ralrra's permission, Han ignited the lightsaber and drove it into the branch near Chewbacca's portrait, imbedding the lightsaber in the wood of the tree. Han then turned it off, leaving it as a reminder of the valor and virtue of Chewbacca. (HT, UF)
Thisspian  
this race of part humanoid, part serpentine beings was native to the planet Thisspias. The upper body of a Thisspian was humanoid in shape, and covered with long hair. The lower half of their body was serpentine, lacking legs and having scales that matched the color of their hair. While the tail of a Thisspian could be used to carry a heavy load, most individuals simply coiled their tails underneath them and moved about on repulsorchairs. In combat, the tail of a Thisspian could be used to constrict their opponent. During the Clone Wars, the Thisspians grudgingly agreed to support the Old Republic at the request of Oppo Rancisis. However, with the rise of the Empire, the Thisspian monarch was executed by an Imperial officer. The population was quick to rebel, and the Alliance tried to assist them in regaining their freedom. However, the Empire cracked down on the planet's security, forcing the Alliance to abandon the planet temporarily. In the aftermath of the Battle of Endor, a Thisspian Crown Prince returned to his homeworld to take retake control. The general populace, however, saw the return of the monarchy as simply a changing of bad leadership. (PJSB, UANT)

Tholian  
this alien race was caught up in an intense battle with Jedi Master Yoda, several years before the Clone Wars. (YDR)
Tholme  
this Jedi Master was one of Quinlan Vos' early teachers, and was a noted Jedi Healer. Master Tholme was the watchman of the sector which contained the planet Kiffex and Kiffu, during the time when Kulrin Vos was the Sheyf of Kiffu. It was Master Tholme who discovered Quinlan's psionic abilities, and asked Kurlin if the boy could be taken to Coruscant for training. Kurlin agreed, but Tinte Vos argued that Quinlan should remain on Kiffu as a Guardian. She used Quinlan's abilities to discover the reasons behind the deaths of Quian and Pethros Vos, an action that left Quinlan nearly insane. Master Tholme resigned his post as watchman and dedicated himself to repairing Quinlan's mind and training him as a Jedi. Master Tholme was later disptached to Kiffex to monitor Quinlan, during the investigation into the re-emergence of Volfe Karkko, and helped Quinlan defeat the feral Anzati warriors. Master Tholme then presented Quinlan with the star-shaped amulet which was the emblem of the Vos clan. Quinlan's psychometric powers were able to read the amulet, which revealed the truth about the deaths of Quinlan's parents at the hands of the Anzati under the control of Volfe Karkko. Later, Tholme was dispatched to Ryloth to mediate the succession of the head-clan which had been led by Pol Secura. He was captured by the Morgukai warrios Tsyr and Bok while trying to protect the Secura heir, Nat Secura. He was forced to feign death in order to be united with the young Twi'lek. He used the trick years later, during the Clone Wars, when he traveled to Devaron with the Dark Woman and Aayla Secura to infiltrate the estate of Vien'sai'malloc. Tholme and the Dark Woman were lured into a trap by Aurra Sing, who had planted false information about the location of a Separatist base on the planet. Aurra Sing trapped both of them in an abandoned mine, then set out to destroy Aayla Secura. Knowing that taking their lives was all that mattered to Aurra Sing, Tholme and the Dark Woman placed themselves into a death-like trance. The loss of two Jedi Masters affected Aurra Sing, who dropped her guard long enough for Aayla Secura to disarm and capture her. The Jedi Masters, injured but alive, were transported back to Coruscant for treatment. Early in the Clone Wars, Tholme and Sora Bulq confronted Count Dooku on Bakura. Bulq was captured in the fighting, and Master Tholme lost his left eye in a lightsaber duel with Dooku. Later, Master Tholme worried almost constantly about the fact that he suggested that Quinlan Vos be used as a secret agent, to be dispatched to join Count Dooku during the Clone Wars. Quinlan's actions indicated that he had turned completely to the Dark Side of the Force, and many questions Tholme's decision to send him on the mission. Tholme himself wondered if he had made the right choice, and was forced to track down Quinlan to learn the truth for himself. Tholme eventually tracked down Sora Bulq on Saleucami, after Quinlan learned of its location from Salje' Tasha. On Saleucami, the former allies fought a desperate lightsaber battle, only to have Tholme choose to escape rather than fight. He didn't leave the planet, however, and set out to destroy the cloning facilities Sora Bulq had built in the magma caverns. Tholme continued to harass the Separatists for months, while the main Republic force pummeled the Separatists on the surface. In a tense confrontation on Saleucami, Tholme was forced to fight Quinlan, who refused to acknowledge that he was too close to the Dark Side of the Force. In the fight, the precipice on which Tholme was standing gave way, and he plummeted to the ground. Quinlan and the other Jedi on Saleucami believed him dead, because Tholme chose to disconnect himself from the Force. This allowed him to reappear during the final confrontation with Sora Bulq, since even the Sith were unaware of his presence. His presence in the Force, along with that of Aayla Secura, helped to steady Quinlan's resolve to return to the Light Side of the Force, and gave Quinlan the strength to defeat Sora Bulq. (OWS, DRKN, ROP, J3, RT, RSOS)
Tholon  
this planet, originally scouted by Casti Tholon for Rim Commercial Mining, was named for her. It was a desolate world of rocky wastes, but proved to be incredibly rich with valuable ores and minerals. The planet's resources allowed RCM to become quite profitable, and they named the planet for its discoverer. It was, in fact, the first world that Casti Tholon ever scouted. (AIR)
Tholon, Casti  
this bald-pated woman was considered one of the most loyal graduates of the Galactic Outdoor Survival School. A native of Sardorna, she grew up as an orphan aboard one of the space stations which orbited the planet Duro. Despite the fact that she was human, the Duros accepted her into their society, and Casti soon found that she enjoyed the company of Duros over that of other humans. During her time at GOSS, she was known to be one of Barosa Warren's favorite students, and the two developed a friendship over time. They worked together after her graduation, with Warren assisting her while she worked for Rim Commerical Mining and Mero-Nepp Ores, but her work kept her away from OM813 more often than not. Despite the distance, Casti remained loyal to Warren and GOSS. (AIR)
Tholos  
one of the Yevethan Aramadia-class starships assigned to guard the Black Nine installation against attack by the New Republic, the Tholos was under the command of Par Drann. It was the Tholos, making a routine jump into the ILC-905 system, which was attacked by the warships Vanguard, Indomitable, and Folna. The combined fire of the Republic ships, along with several well-placed bombing runs, rendered the Tholos without adequate control. The ship tumbled through the atmosphere of the third planet of the ILC-905 system and was destroyed. (TT)

Thomree paid his taxes and supplied war materiel, while doing his best to keep the Corellian sector free of Imperial mandates. When he died suddenly, Daclif Gallamby was named Diktat. (AS)
Thon  
a continent on Alderaan, known for its wildlife reserves. (SWR)
Thon  
an alien known to the Old Republic as a Wharl (or Tchuukthai), Thon was in reality a sentient being who chose to keep his species and his culture a well-guarded secret. Thon trained in the ways of the Force, and eventually became a Jedi Master. He was assigned as the watchman of the Stenness System, and was living and training on Ambria just prior to the Great Sith War. When he first came to Ambria, the Dark Side of the Force was prevalent on the planet. Master Thon pushed the Dark Side back, forcing it into Lake Natth. His experiences on Ambria taught him of the virtue of the Light Side, and he tried to convince other Jedi Masters about the dangers of the Krath. He was supposed to have continued the Jedi training of Andur Sunrider, but Andur's death changed those plans. Instead, Thon became the teacher of Andur's wife, Nomi. Her stubbornness was broken when Thon was attacked by Bogga the Hutt. In the battle, Thon gave his lightsaber to Nomi, and she used it with unusual skill for an untrained Jedi candidate. Thon realized that Nomi was the special Jedi he was prophecied to train, and took her under his tutelage. Later, he was part of the assembly of Jedi Masters who met on Deneba to discuss the Krath uprising in the Empress Teta system. (DE1, DA, COTF, DLS, TOJC, EGP)
ThonBoka  
named for the Oswaft term that meant StarCave, the ThonBoka was a huge nebula which formed a sac-like refuge from the vacuum of space. The ThonBoka was home to a large number of vacuum-breathing species, including the Oswaft, all of which lived on the raw nutrients that floated in the vacuum contained within the StarCave's boundaries. The nebula, which meaured about twelve light-years - or some ten trillion kilometers - across, was composed of huge amounts of pre-organic molecules. A single hole existed in the sac-like nebula, forming the only entrance to the StarCave. In the center of the ThonBoka were three young, blue-white stars, each about a lightyear apart from the others. None of them had any planets. In the center of these three stars lies an exact, miniature replica of the cave, built for the Oswaft Elders from every conceivable gemstone in the galaxy. This so-called Cave of the Elders was the primary meeting place of the leaders of the Oswaft. Despite the fact that the ThonBoka was mainly empty space, and its boundaries were formed from dense layers of gaseous molecules, the Oswaft were unable to exit the ThonBoka by simply "skipping" through the walls. The Oswaft indicated that they could not "see" through the walls of the ThonBoka, thereby prohibiting them from moving through it. Thus, they were forced to move in and out of the ThonBoka through the single hole at one end. (LCS)
Thonner  
this planet, the fourth world in the Thonner System, was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. Its surface was covered with shallow salt seas, and broken by small chains of sandy islands. Thonner was first settled just twenty-five years before the Battle of Yavin, with colonists forming small collections of buildings around the newly-discovered freshwater springs. After it was settled, the planet's landmasses were found to be excellent habitats for the lichens that grew on Maya Kovel. Spores were inadvertently transported to Thonner, where they took hold on the islands and quickly covered the land with their lush growth. During the Old Republic, Thonner served as something of a penal colony for the Ayrou, which led to several legends that claimed the Ayrou Tessent was hidden somewhere in the seas of Thonner. (GMR9)
Thonnerman  
this was the name used to describe the human settlers on the planet Thonner. Over time, the term became something of a generic term to describe the fisherfolk who lived and worked on Thonner, including a growing population of Kian'thar. The two races existed in tightly-knitted communities, with the Kain'thar handling aquatic activities while the humans handled things above the water. (GMR9)

Only two of his specially-modified TIE Fighters managed to survive long enough to reach the ship carrying the teezl, piloted by Shira Brie and Luke Skywalker. Their combined firepower, augmented by Thorben and his squadron technicians, was sufficient to destroy the teezl. (LTA3, PH, MC60, MC61)

this man was one of the military leaders who supported the Jabiimi Nationalists, during the Imperial occupation of Jabiim. Years earlier, he was among the military officers who were supporting the Separatist forces during the Clone Wars, and nearly died when Orliss Gillmunn and his guerrillas boxed his detachment into High Rock Canyon. However, Thorne and his forces used a specially-designed virus to wipe out the Loyalists and escape. Thorne confronted Gillmunn's son, Nolan, some twenty years later, when the Imperial forces on Jabiim raided the Loyalist headquarters. He claimed to have finally ousted the Empire and reclaimed complete mining rights to the planet without firing a single shot, by giving in to two conditions: a large portion of the Jabiimite population was to be shipped off-planet as indentured workers, and Gillmunn had to turn over Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa as prisoners.

this unusual plant was found in the jungles of the planet Caamas. It was a woody shrub, whose extensive root system spread underground for up to ten meters from the thick trunk. The leaves of the thornsniper were covered with thorns, which could be forcefully ejected from the plant itself. The thornsniper fired its thorns whenever it sensed a nearby vibration, and could detect the target's position by monitoring the vibrations through its roots. It was not a mobile plant, however, and basically waited for its victim to die and decompose. Then, it could absorb nutrients through the roots. (WOTC, CCW)

Thorsh  
this Jenet served the New Republic military during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. He was known for his skills as a scout and reconnaissance agent, and could pilot any number of repulsor-equipped vehicles. Thorsh was among the many military personnel captured at Bilbringi when Operation Trinity was disrupted by the loss of the HoloNet, and was incarcerated on the Yuuzhan Vong-held world of Selvaris. After the informant known only as Ryn 115 provided Judder Page and Pash Cracken with a holowafer containing important data, Thorsh was one of a handful of beings who were entrusted with the data it contained. He and three Biths managed to escape from the prison camp, using carfeully hidden speederbikes as getaway vehicles. However, their absence was quickly noted by the Yuuzhan Vong, and a search party was sent to recover them. After a long chase, only Thorsh survived to reach the Millennium Falcon, which had been alerted to the escape and dispatched to Selvaris to recover the fugitives. Once back on Calamari, Thorsh was debriefed and the information he had memorized was recorded for deciphering. This knowledge revealed that a convoy of prisoners from Selvaris was traveling to Coruscant - now terraformed into a simulacrum of Yuuzhan'tar - for sacrifice. With the data Thorsh provided, many of his other fellow prisoners were soon rescued. (UF)

It was Thraka Duroth who discovered the murdered body of his superior, Nak Simm, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Thraka then rushed to the Corusca Gem Casino and accused the individuals with whom Nak Simm was to meet of killing him. In the confusion, Nomo Sliken revealed himself to be Nak Simm's true murdered, and tried to flee the casino. Once Nomo Sliken was captured, however, Thraka took the party to meet with Torga.

The 9.5-meter-long thrall herder had a dome-shaped carapace that served as protection, and it moved about on thousands of cilia-like legs. These creatures could also spit a glob of pure plasma across a great distance, an action that could be used for attack of defense. When ridden into battle by a Yuuzhan Vong warrior, the thrall herder used a specialized surge-coral device to control up to 600 enslaved beings, forcing them to fight as the first wave of a ground assault. In this way, the Yuuzhan Vong could save their own warriors - as well as Chazrach warriors - for the final assault. (NJOSB)

Thranta  
a creature native to the planet Alderaan, the thranta was a reptavian of incredible beauty and diversion. No less that four species of thranta were once native to Alderaan, although only the common thranta - sometimes called the Alderaan of Bespin thranta - were exported to Bespin before Alderaan was destroyed. The great thranta, the pilotta thranta, and the balana thranta were all exterminated with the destruction of Alderaan. The thranta was basically a huge, floating wing, bouyed by a lighter-than-air bladder. They were very docile creatures, and could be easily domesticated. All four major subspecies could be trained to serve as transportation beasts, carrying individuals or entire barges. The average thranta lived or forty standard years or so. The thrantas that survive on Bespin, known as rodeo thrantas, were descendants of domesticated thranta that were used as flying mounts. The thranta was used on Alderaan as a transportation method as well as a show-beast. Smaller thranta were trained as recreational mounts. Some thranta were even transported to Coruscant, to be used as Imperial courier beasts. However, these thrantas wasted away without their natural environment to thrive in. The noxious fumes and emissions of the planet-wide city seemed to poison them. (ISU, WSW, WOTC)
Thranta Riders  
these humanoids are a silent, mysterious group that have befriended the thrantas that inhabit Bespin's atmosphere. They have large cranial lobes and thin faces, and often tattoo themselves with wild, swirling patterns. They remain aloof from all of Bespin's culture, and little is known about their origins. They have developed a monthly sky rodeo, which they perform for the visitors to Bespin. They take their thrantas through a series of wild loops and spirals, and the riders themselves leap from their thrantas a fly through the clouds. Their thrantas then swoop under them and catch them. (ISU)
Thranta-class War Cruiser  
developed by the Alderaanian military, the Thranta-class was one of the last warships built before Alderaan demilitarized.

Thrantcill  
this black-eyed avian creature was native to the planet Coruscant. It was a resilient species, having adapted its migration patterns over the millennia as Coruscant's weather and climate were altered to meet the needs of the growing city-world.

Thrawn  
this being, a member of the Chiss race, was a respected and honored commander in the Chiss Expansionary Defense force during the years following the Clone Wars. His abilities to accurately predict his opponent's moves, and his tactical genius, moved him through the ranks with a quiet speed. Thrawn - whose full name was Mitth'raw'nuruodo - claimed to have been one of the first to intercept the Imperial task force dispatched to destroy the Outbound Flight Project, when it appeared in the Unknown Regions. The Jedi, at the urging of then-Chancellor Palpatine, had arranged for the Jedi Masters to make a trial run through the Unknown Regions, in order to help prepare them for the discovery of life in another galaxy. Unknown to the Jedi, Palpatine had sent the task force - led by one of his trusted advisors, Kinman Doriana - to make sure they didn't get started. The fifteen-ship Imperial force was summarily wiped out by Thrawn's small fleet of ships, although Doriana's ship was allowed to survive. Doriana himself negotiated with Thrawn, explaining why they were in Chiss space and what the threat of the Jedi was. Thrawn saw two things in Doriana's speech: the necessity for removing the Jedi, and the order and stability that Palpatine's New Order could bring to the galaxy. He agreed to let Doriana return to Coruscant, and also agreed to destroy Outbound Flight. Palpatine spent the next several years searching for Thrawn, in hopes of bringing his military genius into the Empire. Thrawn, meanwhile, had learned from the Empire the use of pre-emptive strikes against his opponents. The problem was that the Chiss regarded such unprovoked attacks as a form of murder, and exiled Thrawn after one particularly bloody incident. The ruling Chiss stripped him of his rank and sent him to live on an uninhabited world near Imperial space. It was here that Captain Voss Parck finally caught up with Thrawn, convincing him to travel to Coruscant and serve Palpatine. Thrawn received private schooling in Imperial military academies, becoming a Captain shortly after the Battle of Yavin and quickly rising through the ranks as one of the few non-humans in the Navy. He later claimed that he contradicted the orders of Emperor Palpatine on at least four occasions; after the first, Palpatine learned that Thrawn was often correct. When Darth Vader was called by the Emperor to become more involved in his plot to capture Luke Skywalker, Vader assigned Thrawn to be the "guardian" of the Noghri on Honoghr. This exposure to Vader and Palpatine led to Thrawn's promotion to Vice Admiral, where he helped design the missile gunboat. As Vice Admiral, Thrawn oversaw the development of an Imperial outpost in the Pakuuni System, then assisted in the defense of Palpatine against Zaarin's treachery. However, Thrawn could not capture Zaarin before he made his escape into hyperspace. Further service to the Emperor garnered Thrawn a full promotion to Admiral, at which time he served on the Inexorable under Ysanne Isard. Sometime later, Thrawn was promoted to Grand Admiral, and he convinced both Isard and Soontir Fel that a group of clones created from Fel's genetic material would make perfect sleeper agents. They could pilot ships, and would be loyal to the Empire. During a political party in the Emperor's court, Thrawn made a rare judgmental error and wound up on the wrong side of a debate. This angered Palpatine, but it also gave him an excuse to move Thrawn out of the limelight. Thrawn and Parck were sent back to the Unknown Regions as punishment, but were continually fed Imperial support. While there, Thrawn and Parck set up the compound known as the Hand of Thrawn on Nirauan, drawing a military force from the Chiss who still supported Thrawn. During their tenure, they won over large sectors of the region. These sectors could have vastly increased the Empire, had not Palpatine died at Endor. Thrawn decided to hedge his bets, and began fortifying the Hand of Thrawn. He left Parck there, in charge of the planet, when he decided to return to the rest of the galaxy some four years after the Battle of Endor. He left word with Parck and the Chiss who supported him that, if he was ever reported dead, that they should wait ten years for his return. As one of the surviving Grand Admirals, Thrawn was able to quickly garner support from the Imperial remnants, obtaining control of the small fleet under the command of then-Captain Pellaeon. Using Noghri strike forces and clever deceptions - such as cloaking devices and clones recovered from the Mount Tantiss facility - Thrawn and his growing fleet began systematically retaking pieces of the New Republic a year later. He was successful until the Battle of Bilbringi, where his fleet was decimated and he was killed by his Noghri bodyguard, Rukh. In order to ensure that he would eventually return to the Chiss on Nirauan, as he promised, Thrawn had Parck and Fel maintain a clone of himself, ready for rebirth at the ten-year mark. The clone was never activated, as Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade discovered the ruse and exposed it to the New Republic. (HTTE, DFR, TLC, TIE, WG, SOP, VOF, GOF8)
Thrawn Pincer  
a space warfare developed by Admiral Ackbar, the Thrawn Pincer was based primarily on the tactics of Grand Admiral Thrawn. In a given battle situation, Ackbar would bring in two separate fleets. The first would emerge from hyperspace inside the system which was under attack, and would engage the enemy's fleet. The second fleet would emerge on the far side of the system to await further orders. When the battle began to turn for the enemy, Ackbar would wait for the enemy to fire up the gravity well projectors of an Interdictor-class cruiser. The move would mean that Ackbar's forces couldn't leave the system via hyperspace, and gave the enemy a false sense of victory. On Ackbar's mark, the second fleet would use a microjump through hyperspace to join the primary fleet. The exact location of their exit from hyperspace would be determined by the placement of the enemy's Interdictor cruiser, but would almost always be behind the enemy fleet. This was the activation of the pincer, catching the enemy fleet between its own gravity shadow and the fresh Republic fleet. The Thrawn Pincer was first used during the liberation of Ciutric from Prince-Admiral Krennel, and proved to be quite effective. (IR)
Threadneedle Canyon  
this high-walled, crescent-shaped canyon was located on the planet Nadiem. Some five months after the Battle of Geonosis, Threadneedle Canyon was the site of a skirmish between a group of clone troopers led by Luminara Unduli and Barriss Offee, and a droid army led by General Grievous. Grievous remained hidden from view, and directed his forces to trap the Republic's forces within the walls of Threadneedle Canyon. However, Barriss Offee and her troops literally played dead, and the Separatist forces passed them by. This allowed Offee's forces to attack the droids from the rear, crushing the Separatist forces between the two halves of the Republic's force. (CWA2)

The natives of Grathus had been expecting a load of waste treatment parts, but the shipping company delivered the droid by mistake. Xig Rollem purchased the droid and altered its programming, giving it the name Threna and employing the droid as a bartender at his cantina. The droid'd original programming was basically unaltered, though, and it acted with the utmosy courtesy to Rollem's patrons, most of whom were rowdy miners and hired hands. However, over time, Threna's demeanor actually rubbed off on the patrons, who gradually became more refined. (SWJ10)

Thresher  
native to the rocky coastlines of the planet Tinallis, this short-lived avian was known for its aerobatic flying. They hunt by riding the thermals and winds along the coast, diving into the water to snatch fish and crustaceans. Despite their avian appearance, research has indicated that the thresher had mammalian ancestors. They are warm-blooded, and suckle their offspring. These creatures were extremely territorial, and developed social groups which helped protect their families. They also mate for life. Further research into the thresher's life revealed that they were instrumental in keeping the population of blue-ringed sea crabs down to a minimum, maintaining a balance in the oceanic food chain. The government of Tinallis outlawed the hunting of the avians, especially after several gourmet restaurants began serving thresher on their menus. (COG)

A well-muscled humanoid with a tall, rectangular skull, Throgg was known as one of Tatooine's nastiest spice smugglers. Throgg was the individual Luke discovered through the Force, in the Mos Eisley cantina, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Throgg told Luke that he had once been a farmer, until the Empire took control of the galaxy and shattered what little peace he had. Despite his initial misgivings about returning to a farmer's life, Throgg accepted Luke's deal and managed the farm for a couple of seasons before Gavin Darklighter's uncle Huff tried to steal the farm by initiating an alien landowner tax. Gavin's father bought the farm before Huff could enforce the tax, and Throgg was able to remain on the farm, albeit as a tenant. (XWN, 3D1)

Thrum  
this male Fia was an assistant to Primate Persha during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. When Leia Organa Solo and her husband, Han Solo, arrived at Galantos to try and restore communications to the Galactic Alliance, Thrum was forced into escorting them around Al'solib'minet'ri City, in an effort to keep them from learning the true reason behind the communications blackout. His efforts were not good enough, however, after Jaina Solo and the Chiss pilot Miza discovered that the Yevetha had been utterly wiped out by the Yuuzhan Vong. Much to Thrum's dismay, Leia and Han learned that the Fia had provided information on the Yevetha in exchange for resources and a temporary freedom. Thrum, however, decided that it was best to help the Solos plan a defense for Galantos when the Yuuzhan Vong decided that they no longer needed the Fia. (FH1)
Thrumble, Massad

Thud Bug  
this species of flying insect was bio-engineered from the sparkbee, which was once native to Yuuzhan'tar, the homeworld of the Yuuzhan Vong. The warriors used the flying bugs, known as nang hul, as projectile weapons, often imbedding them in their flesh or armor for use in battle. The silver-carapaced thud bugs could inflict simply physical trauma, or they could be modified to carry explosives which detonated on contact. In flight, a thuhd bug could reach speeds over 150 kilometers per hour. After the hostilities between the Yuuzhan Vong and the Galactic Alliance were resolved, and the Yuuzhan Vong were allowed to live on the planet Zonama Sekot, they found that thud bugs and many other bio-engineered weapons simply reverted to their animal forms and fled into the forests. This was one way in which Sekot forced the Yuuzhan Vong to give up their lust for war and embrace a more enlightened existence. (VP, JE, EVC, T, UF, NEGW)

Thul, Aryn Dro  
this blue-eyed Alderaanian woman was born to the noble Dro family. She was known to the former inhabitants of Aldera for her ballads and songs. She performed solo, with a mandoviol to accompany her. She was dating Bornan Thul when she met a young Han Solo, who had stopped on Alderaan after being attacked by pirates. She enjoyed his company, much to the chagrin and jealousy of Thul. However, Solo was not one to remain in one place for too long, and she eventually got over him and married Bornan. After they managed to escape the destruction of their homeworld, they had a son, Raynar, who was Force-sensitive. He joined the Jedi Academy on Yavin 4 shortly before his father disappeared. Aryn went to Yavin 4 to see if her son had any knowledge of Bornan's whereabouts, and to protect him. Years later, after Raynar was believed to have died at Myrkr, Tesar Sebatyne tracked down Madame Thul to tell her that her son was still alive. After explaining the situation that created UnuThul, Tesar then gave her a message from her son, hoping to acquire ships and supplies from Bornaryn to help maintain the Colony during its struggle with the Chiss. (TPS, TEP, DN1)
Thul, Bornan  
this Alderaanian man was Aryn Dro's boyfriend, during the early years of the New Order. He was jealous of Han's bravery and the attention paid him by Aryn. After Han became a smuggler, Bornan eventaully won Aryn's favor. They were later married, and Bornan became an Alderaanian nobleman with a vast shipping empire. He and his wife were off-planet when the Death Star destroyed Alderaan, and so were among the handful of Alderaanians who survived the Galactic Civil War. After the Battle of Endor, Bornan became involved with the trade negotiations and alliances of the New Republic. He also began working with Nolaa Tarkona, and negotiated a deal for trade rights with her. While on his way to meet Han Solo at the New Republic Trade Council on Shumavar, he discovered that the cargoes he purchased from Fonterrat contained the Emperor's Plague, he attempted to destroy the storehouse from which they came. He was unable to do so, so he disapeared before delivering the cargo to Tarkona. She immediately placed a bounty on his head, for he retained the location of the storehouse. He managed to elude such notorious bounty hunters as Boba Fett, and kept the location of the storehouse away from Tarkona until he was found by his son, Raynar, and Zekk. When they tried to destroy the storehouse, Bornan sacrficed himself in order to kill Tarkona as well. She had unleashed the Emperor's Plague, but he was able to kill her with another of the viruses. (TPS, SHA, TEP)
Thul, Raynar  
this spoiled, troublesome heir of Bornan and Aryn Dro Thul, Raynar was a student at Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy on Yavin 4 at the same time Jacen and Jaina Solo are there. He always wore outrageous clothing styled in his family's royal colors, none of which go with each other. A bristly-haired blond youth, Raynar disliked Jacen Solo, especially Jacen's collection of exotic creatures. Raynar was bitten a number of times by Jacen's crystal snake. When the Shadow Academy attacked Yavin 4, Raynar discovered that he wasn't as skilled as he believed himself to be. In a quick fight with Brakiss' Dark Jedi, Raynar ended up face-down in a riverbank and missed most of the fighting. Raynar's demeanor changes, and he decided that he must work for the prestige he wanted, rather than claim it was his. Raynar and Jacen eventually overcame their differences and became good friends. After Han Solo delivered the news that Bornan had disappeared, Ranyar became entangled with the Diversity Alliance. After Zekk returned to Yavin 4, he and Raynar agreed to cooperate and search out Raynar's father. They took the Lightning Rod, and eventually located Bornan. Raynar assisted all his friends in defeating the forces of the Diversity Alliance. Later, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Raynar was part of an elite force sent to Myrkr to locate the voxyn queen and destroy it. During the mission, he got to known Eryl Besa quite well. Despite the fact that she was older, they found themselves attracted to each other. However, Eryl was killed shortly after the Jedi team entered the Baanu Rass, and Raynar fell into despair. After being slashed by a voxyn, Raynar was transported to the Tachyon Flier, and tried to work with Lowbacca to repair the ship as a way to relieve the pain. The ship was stolen by Welk and Lomi Plo, who forced Lowbacca off the ship as they departed. When the small freighter was attacked by Yuuzhan Vong ships and disappeared, Raynar was believed to have died along with his captors. However, their ship managed to escape to the Unknown Regions before crashing. Welk and Lomi Plo fled the site after Raynar dragged them out of the wreckage, and Raynar was able to survive only because he was rescued by members of the Yoggoy hive of the Colony. His badly burned body was nursed back to health, and Raynar's connection to the Force allowed him to communicate with his rescuers. He eventually became the first - and strongest - of the Joiners, and fully pledged himself to the newly-formed Unu hive. After a while, he became known simply as UnuThul. Under his guidance, the various hives of the Colony flourished, and began to expand beyond their former systems toward Chiss space. For all intents and purposes, Raynar Thul had ceased to exist. For many years, his memory of saving Welk and Lomi Plo was missing, and he refused to acknowledge that he had saved them until he was presented with Welk's body nearly six years later. (HTF, SHA, TEP, SBS, NJOSB, DN1)
Thul, Tyko  
Bornan Thul's younger brother, he was a recluse who remained safely behind the defenses of his administrative offices on Mechis III. He hired Boba Fett to bring back his father and nephew, Raynar, after he discovered that Nolaa Tarkona had the location of the storehouse of Imperial viruses. (SHA, TEP)
Thula  
this female Falleen was dispatched by Black Sun to the planet Drongar, during the height of the Clone Wars, to ensure that the production of bota continued to provide a steady stream to the criminal underworld. Thula arrived on Drongar with Squa Tront, and worked with Kadir to re-establish the pipeline. However, it soon became known that the bota plant was mutating at a rate that would render it useless as a medicinal wonder-drug in a short time. Thus, Kadir's plans changed, and he worked to acquire enough processed bota to return to Black Sun and retire. Thula and Squa Tront had other plans, however. When Kadir entrusted them with obtaining the bota and leaving it at a predetermined location, the two criminals opted to keep the bota for themselves. In its place, they left Kadir with a cargo crate filled with explosives. They hoped to eliminate the Nediji and claim the payment for the bota for themselves. Unknown to both, however, was that Kadir discovered their duplicity, and had set out to hunt them down. (MJH)

Thule  
this semi-arid planet was known for its rich savannas, which were continually bombarded by lightning storms. The innermost planet of the Thurra System, Thule was covered with rocky outcroppings which broke up the plains, and which were charred black from being hit by lightning. This charred rock later served as a form of sustenance for unusual, bioluminescent moss that made the rocks glow with an eerie light. During the height of the Great Sith War, Thule served as a base of operations for the Sith warriors, and much of the planet's crust became imbued with the residue of the Dark Side of the Force. Although the Old Republic defeated the Sith, the forces on Thule continued to train, in hopes of one day going to war. After the Battle of Ruusan, the pair of Sith lords that remained in the galaxy often made use of the soldiers on Thule, but none of them were ever deeply involved in the Sith plot to take control of the galaxy. During the early stages of the Clone Wars, Thule was the site of a Separatist base. It was here that Count Dooku hoped to reconstruct the Dark Reaper and use it against the Old Republic. However, with the help of Ulic Qel-Droma's spirit, Anakin Skywalker was able to destroy the Dark Reaper and spare Thule from any damage. As Emperor Palpatine rose to power, all records of Thule's existence were erased from archives and navigational databases, so the Palpatine could secretly draw on the soldiers as needed. The planet was orbited by a single satellite, known as the Thule Moon. It was believed that, at some point during its earliest history, Thule once supported many forms of life. However, over time, any indigenous plants and animals were either killed by the planet's inhabitants or Thule's devastating weather, or were frightened off. (GMR3, TCW, GORW)

this bleach-blonde woman was a bounty hunter of some renown. As a child, she dreamed of graduating from the Imperial Academy, but soon learned that woman were frowned upon in the Empire's war machine. She eventually found work as an assassin and hired gun, and was contracted by an Imperial officer to eliminate Deckland Carper. After killing Carper and returning his head as proof, Thune took possession of Carper's droid, U-THR. She thought of the droid as a "spoil of war," which made the droid resentful of its new master. Thune later took the assignment of tracking down Kaj Nedmak for Bwahl the Hutt. Thune managed to waylay the Tryan Kajme with her own ship, the Faceted, then captured Kaj on Ord Mantell. She later used her street skills to convince Celia Durasha that Kaj had actually been captured by Treytis Prash. Thune convinced Celia that Prash was a bounty hunter, when in fact, Thune knew that Prash as a gun-runner for the Alliance. Thune hoped to capture Prash as well as Nedmak, collecting both bounties and acquiring a huge sum of credits. However, Thune failed to take U-THR's identity seriously. When Celia and Prash escaped, shortly after Thune had stabbed Kaj in the chest, the droid found itself unable to remain in Thune's company any longer. It provided Kaj with a blaster, and he quickly stunned Thune. U-THR then piloted the Faceted and rescued Celia and Treytis. In the end, Thune was turned over to the authorities, and Kaj and Celia took possession of the Faceted. U-THR joined them, as a full member of their crew. (SWJ14)

Thurm Loogg  
this Caarite was the primary envoy sent by the Metatheran Cartel to the planet Cularin, some time before the Battle of Naboo. Thurm was known as a being who would beg, borrow, or steal whatever he needed in order to favor his own interests, and he was not above killing - or having someone else kill for him - in order to get what he wanted. He once claimed to be the only non-Jedi ever to be offered a seat on the Jedi Council, and later claimed to be the mastermind behind the creation of the clone troopers that formed the basis of the Grand Army of the Republic. In the wake Velin Wir's death, sometime after the Battle of Naboo, Loogg was instrumental in regaining the confidence of the Cularin government and re-establishing the Cartel's presence on Cularin. However, the citizens of Cularin regarded Loogg as nothing more than a bully and thug, and did not share their leaders' generous opinion of him. A strange message of the Cartel's benevolence was released by Loogg shortly after the discovery of the Thaereian Military build-up in the Cularin System, in which an unusually happy and jovial Loogg proclaimed that the Cartel was only trying to act in the bests interests of Cularin. Years later, a second message was broadcast by Loogg to every communications device in the system, demonstrating a supposed weakness in Cularin's own HoloNet system. In this new message, Loogg reassured the people of Cularin that the Cartel had only their best interests in mind, and warned them of the possibility of the Separatists arriving in the system. Loogg denounced the Separatists, their droid armies, and the Sith as being "bad", "evil", and "sneaky", and implored the Cularin people to support Chancellor Palpatine's efforts to end the Clone Wars. Many of Cularin's citizens simply turned off their viewscreens, which prompted Loogg and the Cartel into surreptitiously begin installing "upgrades" to Cularin's communications systems, allowing them to have virtually complete control of everything, including the ability to turn individual viewscreens on and off. Loogg claimed that this was just another sign of the Cartel's goodwill toward Cularin, but strongly warned people not to try and modify their "new" system. He went on to say that the Cartel loved Cularin, and only remained in the Cularin System in order to ensure the protection of each and every Cularin citizen. But, he said, since Cularin seemed to want to fight its own battles, the Cartel would not interfere with the very citizens it was "sworn" to protect. (LFC, LFCW)

Jedi Master Yoda, an old friend of Alaric, traveled to the planet to try and persuade his friend to remain with the Republic. However, the machinations of Navi and Alaric's own stubborn will prevented any reconciliation, and Thustra remained part of the Confederacyt of Independent Systems. Because Alaric had contacts in many surrounding systems, many of these systems also seceded to join the Separatists. (J5)

this species of saurian was imported to Eiattu, to be hunted in the jungles for sport. Being vicious predators, the thuvasaurs eventually consumed the native competition. They are similar in size and shape to a tauntaun, but are actually related to the dewback. A strain of thuvasaur was slowly domesticated by the royal families of Eiattu, until they were suitable for use as mounts.

Thyferra  
this planet, located in the Polith System, produced much of the galaxy's bacta. A temperate world with two moons, it is the homeworld of the Vratix race, which discovered how to create bacta from alazhi and kavam. The Vratix shared the secrets of bacta production with their human neighbors, and a healthy business was created as the galaxy realized the healing potential of bacta. The planet had two human factions engaged in bacta production, the Zaltin and Xucphra factions, in addition to the Vratix Ashern faction. The two human factions were chosen by Emperor Palpatine to supply the Empire's bacta, effectively eliminating all competition in the bacta market. The Vratix were relegated to the position of rebellious terrorists, until they petitioned the New Republic for admission as a member race. The Republic was unable to do so without the consent of the native human population, which was under the yoke of Ysanne Isard until she was killed in the Battle of Thyferra. Once free of Imperial domination, Thyferra applied for membership and was accepted. The Vratix then expelled the human leaders of the bacta cartels, and took control of its production for thenselves. Unfortunately, the Vratix were no match for the Yuuzhan Vong, who invaded the galaxy shortly afterward. The Yuuzhan Vong control of Thyferra casued serious problems to the New Republic, which had to rely on existing stockpiles of bacta to supply their military medical facilities. In a series of hit-and-run attacks, New Republic forces eventually defeated the alien invaders and recaptured the planet. The average day on Thyferra lasts just over 21 standard hours.

Thyss  
this landing platform, formed in the wroshyr trees of Rwookrrorro, was where Jowdrrl and Dryanta worked on the Millennium Falcon while Chewbacca helped Lumpawarump with his Test of Ascension. (TT)
Thyssel  
this bark of this tree, which was native only to Haruun Kal, was considered an exotic spice. Because the thyssel tree grew only on Haruun Kal, it was quite expensive. The native Korunnai often chewed the bark of the thyssel raw, as a kind of stimulant. Those individuals who chewed thyssel bark were easily distinguished by the scarlet-red color of their teeth. When properly roasted and refined, the bark was ground into a spice which provided a sharp taste that gave the eater a slight sensation of euphoria. When not fully refined and dried, thyssel bark retained enough moisture to be chewed as a stimulating intoxicant, about as potent as sweet wine. In its raw form, however, thyssel bark could cause permanent brain damage. (SHPT)
Thyswar  
this was a common name among the S'kytri people. (UANT)
Thyte, Darryn  
a member of the FarStar's crew, Thyte was distinguished by his cybernetic arm. He was a former Alliance starfighter pilot who had lost the arm when his X-Wing was shot down over Vaenrood. The only available prosthetic was a clunky, unwieldy device with little dexterity, forcing Darryn to relinquish his position as a pilot and join the ranks of the operations crew. This left him with a bad attitude and sour disposition, which turned to anger when he first met Ranna Gorjaye. He resented the fact that she was still flying, and boasting about how much fun she was having. However, during his tenure aboard the FarStar, he began to soften up toward Ranna. (DARK, KO, KR)
Ti, Kirana  
a Dathomir Witch, Kirana Ti was a member of the Singing Mountain clan. It was Kirana Ti who met Han Solo and Leia Organa when they were on the planet battling against Zsinj. Kirana decided to go to Yavin 4 and learn learn the ways of The Force under Luke Skywalker after Leia suggested her to Luke. She quickly grew into one the most experienced Jedi, and was part of the team dispatched to Corbos. There, with the help of Streen, Kyp Durron, and Dorsk 82, she defeated the Leviathan of Corbos. Kirana had a daughter about the same age as Jacen and Jaina Solo, who remained on Dathomir with rest of Kirana's family. During the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Kirana Ti returned to Dathomir to help protect her people from the alien invaders. Ultimately, Kirana one of the handful of Jedi Knights to survive the conflict with the Yuuzhan Vong. (DA, COTF, UF)
Tia  
this member of the Obroan Institute was the sensor expert on the Alpha Team sent to Maltha Obex, under the command of Bogo Tragett. (TT)
Tia  
this young woman and her twin sister, Ghia, was eighteen when she found herself imprisoned by Jabba the Hutt on Tatooine. Tia and Ghia were natives of Bestine IV, and had joined the Alliance shortly after the Battle of Yavin, but only for the chance to meet Han Solo. After Solo was frozen in carbonite on Cloud City, the sisters defected from the Alliance and set out to rescue him from Jabba. Their military skills were lacking any form of organization, and the sisters were easily captured in Jabba's palace. As punishment, Jabba forced them to fight against other combatants in a series of demolition derby events, flying a modified T-47 airspeeder. (SWD)
Tia  
this given name was commonly given to female human children throughout the galaxy. (GCG)
Tiamat  
this Alliance MC40a was active during the Galactic Civil War. (XVT)
Tiaran'grast Sling Course  
this was the newest and most challenging sling racing course in the galaxy, established during the height of the New Order on the planet Bothawui. The site of the course was located forty kilometers south of Drev'starn, and the course itself was known as much for its raucous pre-race parties as it was the racing itself. (SPG)
Tiatha  
this Jawa was legendary among his clan for his ability to salvage every usable piece of scrap from a wreck. Tiatha could also turn the husk of a starship into a veritable palace. (JKG)
Tiatkin  
this was one of the many Twi'leki clans which were native to the planet Ryloth. In the Twi'leki language, the clan's name meant "creative". (GCG)
T'iaz  
one of the Emperor Palpatine's Dark Side warriors, T'iaz was part of the group that accompanied the dying Emperor to Korriban, in search of a way to halt the decay of his last clone body. He was severely wounded by Rayf Ysanna on Onderon, when Palpatine tried to steal the body of Anakin Skywalker. (EE)
Tibanisphere  
this was the term used to describe the layer of tibanna gas which existed on several gas giants throughout the galaxy. Because of its weight, the tibanna gas settled into an atmospheric layer whenever concentrations were great enough, creating the tibanisphere. (TAE)
Tibanna  
this defense platform was positioned to defend Damorian Manufacturing's repair yards during the Galactic Civil War. (XWA)
Tibanna 300  
this was one of the lesser-known podracing courses, active during the last decades of the Old Republic. Located on Tatooine, the Tibanna 300 was a circular course that traveled aroudn the rim of a long-dead volcano. (SOT)
Tibanna Club  
this is one of Bespin's most popular clubs. (GG9)
Tibanna gas  
a gas found in the atmosphere of many gas giants, it is useful because it can produce large amounts of energy when light passes through it. Thus, it can be used in large blasters to multiply the weapon's output. It also has certain anti-gravitional properties, and has exceptional properties as a hyperdrive coolant. The best tibanna gas is compressed and spin-sealed, since this kind of tibanna is four times as powerful as regular tibanna. Spin-sealing requires a great deal of energy to do artificially. Fortunately for many weapons manufacturers, the tibanna found in the atmosphere of Bespin is naturally spin-sealed. Much of Bespin's tibanna gas is produced as a waste product by the beldons that inhabit the gas giant's Life Zone. (ESB, AESB, GG2, ISU)
Tibannopolis  
a floating city in close-orbit around Bespin, Tibannopolis once hoped to rival Cloud City in terms of gas mining as well as popularity. However, its ability to keep up on both fronts caused its inhabitants to slowly abandon it during the era of the Clone Wars. Tibannopolis was almost completely deserted after the Imperial occupation of Cloud City, but it was stragnely one of the few mining colonies that was never shut down when it failed to turn a profit. It was left floating in the clouds, and the industrious people of other colonies picked it clean of usable materials. The remainder of the hulk now floats like a skeletal ghost town in the clouds. Jedi Master Streen used Tibannopolis as a refuge while he was not prospecting Bespin's gases, during the years surrounding the Battle of Endor. (JS, ISU, GORW)
Tibekk, Raim  
this man was a member of the Coruscant police force during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. A dedicated officer who worked a beat in Coruscant's financial district, Tibekk once arrested a key operative of a major Hutt kajidic. This prompted the Hutts to issue a bounty for Tibekk's capture. Jango Fett claimed the bounty sometime later, when he apprehended by Tibekk and his fellow officers. Fett had just killed the Twi'lek Senator Trell, and Tibekk's gunship was the first to arrive on the scene. Fett managed to disable the gunship and take control of the police officers who survived. (BH)
Tibor  
a Barabel bounty hunter who used to haunt the Mos Eisley cantina until Zorba the Hutt returned to Tatooine. Then, Tibor became one of Zorba's hired hands. (ZHR)
Tibranese  
this was the native language of the Ishi Tib race. The written form was made up of simple hieroglyphs, while the spoken form consisted of squeals, honks, and beak-clacks. (UANT)
Tibrin  
the homeworld of the Ishi Tib race, Tibrin was an oceanic world orbiting the yellow star Cal. The entire planet was covered by a shallow ocean, and the planet had no seasonal changes because of its perpendicular axial tilt. The planet's ocean currents conducted warmth from the inner core to the surface, bringing heat to all parts of the planetary ocean. The only land masses were coral reefs and sand bars, and the Ishi Tib built their ecologically-friendly cities there. Tibrin was one of many worlds which were caught up in the fighting of the Clone Wars, although damage to the ecosystem proved to be minimal. (GG4, LEV)
Tibrin Exotic Armaments  
this was the Basic name for Tibrin Kish'nol. (GFT)
Tibrin Kish'nol  
this Ishi Tib corporation exported a variety of native technologies to the rest of the galaxy, during the height of the New Order. (GFT)
Tibro  
a planet. (WBC)
Tice, Haelon  
there is virtually no information on this man's history, a fact many attribute to the computer manipulation of his employer, Yin Vocta. Tice himself was employed by Vocta as a bodyguard and assassin, and was known to the criminal underworld as a ruthless and brutal killer. His muscular body was a combination of flesh and machine, having augmented his natural abilities with a number of cybernetic replacements. His left eye was synthetic, and glowed a bright violet at all times. Tice's manner was best described as loud and obnoxious, in stark contrast to that of his partner, R'Kayza. (WSV)
Tic'Karcta, Phean  
a native of Arkonne III, Tic'Karcta sabotaged the official vehicle which was carrying her rival in business, Divina Quri Adner. Adner was killed in the attack, and Tic'Karcta found herself the subject of an official Imperial bounty. Wilek Nereus, Adner's fiance', eventually hunted down and killed Tic'Karcta to exact a measure of revenge. (TBSB)

Ti-Dal  
this Cerean was well-respected on his homeworld of Cerea. (SWRPG)
Tidal Breathing  
this was one of the many relaxation techniques developed by the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. By concentrating on exhaling deeply, relaxing and drawing a deep breath, then repeating the actions, a Jedi could shed mental burdens and reach a deeper, more receptive state of mind. This allowed them to make an intense connection to the Force, becoming a conduit for its power. (MBS)
Tide of Progress XII  
this Munificent-class star frigate was constructed for the Confederacy of Independent Systems at a space station located half-way between the edge of the galaxy and its nearest dwarf satellite galaxy, during the height of the Clone Wars. The Tide of Progress XII was one of the many Separatist warships deployed to support General Grievous' forces during the First Battle of Coruscant. (X3)
TIE Advanced  
single-hulled attack ship with bent wings, it was built from a design developed by Darth Vader just prior the Battle of Yavin. Vader flew a prototype TIE/Ad in the battle, and following the loss of the Death Star, he worked with Seinar Fleet Systems to refine it. The 10-meter craft is quick and agile, rated at a top speed of 145 MGLT. The TIE Advanced was equipped with the following shipboard components: Seinar Fleet Systems I-s3a Solar Ionization Reactor, Seinar Fleet Systems P-sx7.4 Twin Ion Engines, Seinar Fleet Systems F-s5x Flight Avionics Control, Seinar Fleet Systems N-s6 NavCom Unit, Seinar Fleet Systems ND9 Hyperdrive Activator Unit, 4 Seinar Fleet Systems L-s9.3 Laser Cannons, 2 Seinar Fleet Systems M-g-2 General Purpose Warhead Launchers, Front/Rear Projecting Novaldex Shields (rated at 100 SBD), Titanium Alloy Hull (rated at 20 RU), Quadanium Steel Armored Solar Panels (SW, XW, TIE)
TIE Advanced x1  
the original series of prototypes for the TIE Advanced, the x1 was the most successful of the TIE prototypes built by Sienar Fleet Systems, and although it did not make it to production, many of its advancements did. The x1 had a custom-built fuselage which features enhanced armor plating, and expanded rear deck, and matching bent wings. It wasn't as maneuverable as the other TIE Fighter designs, but speed was slightly faster. Like most TIE ships, the x1 lacked a life-support system, but it did have modest shield generators and a hyperdrive. The x1 saw limited production. Darth Vader received one of the first x1 ships, while others went to elite squadrons for testing. SFS could not bring the fighter's cost down, so the Empire opted not to purchase the x1 in quantity. Instead, the Empire chose the TIE Interceptor, which incorporated many of the x1's advances but on the basis TIE Fighter frame and at a much cheaper cost. In the decades after the fall of the Empire at Endor and the negotiation of peace between the New Republic and the Imperial remnants, these ships were decommissioned. Lando Calrissian picked up a number of them for use in the Lando's Folly asteroid field. (CCG, VP)
TIE Advanced x7  
this prototype TIE Fighter was one of the last designs produced by Sienar Fleet Systems before the Battle of Endor. Originally developed on Corulag, the x7 measured 9.2 meters in length, and was equipped with a hyperdrive. It was also armed with four laser cannons. The x7 eventually served as the design basis for the TIE Defender. (CCW)
TIE Aggressor  
this experimental variant of the Imperial TIE Fighter was derived from the TIE Advanced x1. The wings of the TIE Aggressor were bent at the front, but tapered down to a single panel at the rear. The rear deck of the TIE Advanced was reduced in width to save weight, but provided the ship with enhanced maneuverability. A pair of chin-mounted laser cannons complimented two missile launchers, and a gun turret was mounted at the rear, giving the TIE Aggressor more firepower than its predecessor. Military experts categorized the TIE Aggressor as neither a fighter nor a bomber, but rather something in between that could accomplish the mission profiles of either type of vessel. (LAWS, SWGAL)
TIE Avenger  
this version of the TIE Fighter was based on the TIE Advanced x1 prototype, and was the precursor to the TIE Interceptor. The Avenger's wings were bent inward at the top and bottom, and the wing supports were strengthened with fins attached to the hull. The armament and shielding was virtually the same as the TIE Advanced x1, with pair of L-s9.3 laser cannons or a pair of warhead launchers giving the fighter its punch. The TIE Avenger also reused the I-s3a ionization reactor and two P-sx7.4 ion engines for propulsion. It also had deflector shields and a hyperdrive, which significantly added to its cost. Because of this, it was quickly phased out of production and replaced with the TIE Interceptor. (CCG4, SWDB)
TIE Bomber  
built by Seinar Fleet Systems, this version of the TIE fighter is a double-hulled bomber ship with bent wings for increased stability. It is 7.8 meters in large, is a single-pilot craft, and can make 80 MGLT at sublight speeds. It was designed for surgical strikes against ground and deep-space targets. It suffers in maneuverability due to its double-hulled configuration, but when complemented by TIE Fighters or TIE Interceptors, it makes a lethal combination. They have enhanced targetting capability, making them much more accurate than many capital ships. These ships eventually evolved into the Scimitar assault bomber. It boasts the following shipboard systems: Seinar Fleet Systems P-s4 Twin Ion Engines, Seinar Fleet Systems N-s4 NavCom Unit, 2 Seinar Fleet Systems L-s1 Laser Cannons, Seinar Fleet Systems M-s3 Concussion Missile Launchers (2 racks of 4), Seinar Fleet Systems I-a2b Solar Ionization Reactor, Seinar Fleet Systems F-s3.2 Avionics Control, Seinar Fleet Systems T-s7b Targeting Computer, Seinar Fleet Systems T-s5 Proton Torpedo Launchers (2 racks of 2), Titanium Alloy Hull (rated at 50 RU), Quadanium Steel Armored Solar Panels. (ESB, SCRE, EGV)
TIE Bomber Mark 2  
this proposed update to the Imperial TIE Bomber was developed by Captain Tomax Bren, and included the addition of shielding and armor plating. (SWJ15)
TIE Crawler  
another name for the TIE Tank. (DE1)
TIE Defender  
an advanced form of TIE Fighter developed in secrecy by the Imperial Navy, the TIE Defender was produced as a response to the success of the Alliance's starfighter pilots. This 10-meter starfighter, known as the TIE/D, took the stability and agility of the TIE Interceptor's bent-wing design and added a third bent-wing to it. Note that The New Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels indicates that the TIE Defender measured just 6.6 meters in length. Not much was known about the TIE/D, as it was never fully accepted in battle and never mass-produced. It was thought to have had a maximum speed of 155 MGLT, with 4 L-s9.3 laser cannons, 2 NK-3 ion cannons, 2 M-g-2 warhead launchers, 200 SBD shields, and a 20 RU hull. The fighter was propelled by the newer P-sz9.7 twin ion engines from Sienar Fleet Systems, which gave the ship atmospheric speeds of 1,680 kilometers per hour, and was equipped with Novaldex shield generators. The TIE Defender was used to defeat Admiral Zaarin, although the missions were so secret that very few Imperial officials were unaware of its role. The TIE Defender was produced at a cost of over 300,000 credits per fighter, about five times the cost of a TIE/ln. This, plus the political upheaval created by the Battle of Endor and the fact that it had an aft blindspot created by the wing placement, led to the demise of the TIE Defender as a widely-accepted starfighter. Its only known deployment during the Galactic Civil War was as part of Onyx Squadron during the Battle of Endor, but the TIE Defender design was later adopted by the Imperial Remnant as one of its primary starfighters. (TIE, EGV, CCG9, SWDB, NEGV, FH1)
TIE Deluxe  
an advanced form of TIE Fighters which was developed, but never deployed into combat. (TIE)
TIE Fighter  
sometimes called the TIE/ln starfighter, this was the first flat-winged, single-pilot TIE ship developed by Seinar Fleet Systems, and the basis for all other TIE ships. It is 6.3 meters in length, and can make 100 MGLT at sublight speeds. It has also been clocked at 1,200 kilometers per hour in an atmosphere. Like all TIE ships, it has a titanium alloy hull and quadanium steel armored solar panels. All visual information on TIE Fighters shows that they have six-sided solar panels, although X-Wing: The Bacta War indicates that they are octagonal. Also, like other TIE ships, it is built exclusively from Seinar Fleet Systems components, and lacks primary life support systems. It is a short-range starfighter, requiring a nearby base of operations from which to obtain fuel and guidance. It also boasts the following shipboard systems: Seinar Fleet Systems T-s8 Targeting Computer, Seinar Fleet Systems I-a2b Solar Ionization Reactor, Seinar Fleet Systems N-s6 NavCom Unit, Seinar Fleet Systems P-s4 Twin Ion Engines, Seinar Fleet Systems F-s3.2 Avionics Control, 2 Seinar Fleet Systems P-w401 Ion Maneuvering Jets, 2 Seinar Fleet Systems L-s1 Laser Cannons, Titanium Alloy Hull (rated at 15 RU) ,Quadanium Steel Armored Solar Panels. (SW, SCRE, SWSB, EGV)
TIE Fighter  
a game found in the databanks of the computer program called Systems Integration Manager aboard the Star of Empire. The player took the persona of a downed TIE Fighter pilot who had to escape from Alliance forces before being captured. In order to escape, the pilot had to enter the correct access code to repair his ship. (GOF10)
TIE Fighter Boat  
this was a form of aquatic military vessel developed by the Empire, based on the standard TIE/ln starfighter. (BGS)
TIE Hunter  
this variant on the Imperial TIE Fighter was created at a hidden base near Destrillion, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Its unusual design incorporated S-foils, similar to those used on the Incom T-65 X-Wing, to position the trademark solar panels. In addition to the standard laser cannons, the TIE Hunter also was armed with ion cannons, and could be upgraded to use concussion missile launchers. Like most TIE designs, the TIE Hunter lacked shields, but could be upgraded to support them. Before the TIE Hunter could be put into production, three prototypes were stolen by Wedge Antilles. These were used in a raid on the Imperial shipyards at Fondor, where the TIE Hunter proved it could be a formidable craft after Antilles and Rogue Squadron were able to destroy a Star Destroyer that was under construction. Because of the events surrounding the Battle of Endor, however, the TIE Hunter never went into full production. (RSG3)
TIE Interceptor  
built by Seinar Fleet Systems, these single-pilot bent-winged attack craft were designed so that the wings are longer in front than behind, and have been cut out at the front for better visibility. They are 9.6 meters in length, and can run at 110 MGLT at sublight speeds. They have been timed at 1,250 kilometers per hour in atmospheric conditions. It boasts the following shipboard systems: Titanium Alloy Hull (rated at 20 RU), Quadanium Steel Armored Solar Panels, Seinar Fleet Systems I-a3b Solar Ionization Reactor, Seinar Fleet Systems S-c4.1 Multi-range Tracking Array Grid, Seinar Fleet Systems F-s4 Avionics Control, Seinar Fleet Systems T-s9a Targeting Computer, Seinar Fleet Systems P-s5.6 Twin Ion Engines, Seinar Fleet Systems N-s6 NavCom Unit, 4 Seinar Fleet Systems L-s9.3 Laser Cannons. (ROTJ, SCRE, SWSB, XW)
TIE Lander  
this troop transport vessel was built by Sienar Fleet Systems, and was based on the design of the TIE Fighter. It had a triple hull, which gave it the ability to deploy a stormtrooper company into virtually any environment. (IWST)
TIE Oppressor  
this unusual variant of the Imperial TIE Fighter was designed to bridge the gap between the TIE Bomber and the TIE Interceptor. The elongated, bent wings of the TIE Advanced were reused on the TIE Oppressor to provide stability, while a third wing was mounted horizontally at the rear. (LAWS)
TIE Raptor  
this was the name of a droid-operated TIE Interceptor developed by Warlord Zsinj, during his battle against the New Republic. They first saw duty with the false 181st Fighter Group Zsinj assembled, in hopes ot drawing out Rogue Squadron. The droid fighters were paired with human-piloted Interceptors, a combination which allowed the humans to lead and the droids to follow in their wake, making up for any piloting mistakes the humans made. They would have found more widespread usage if they weren't soundly defeated in dogfights during the Battle of Selaggis. Resembling the normal TIE Fighter cockpit, but with four wings mounted directly to the cockpit, the TIE/rpt was eventually modified for flight by a living pilot, shortly before Zsinj's destruction at Dathomir. The TIE/rpt lacked shields, although this deficiency was being addressed at the time of Zsinj's demise. Each TIE Raptor was armed with four laser cannons, mounted on the wings, and a pair of concussion missile tubes mounted just below the cockpit. Despite the striking similarity between the TIE Raptor and the basic TIE Fighter, Seinar Fleet Systems was not responsible for its design or manufacture. (SOC, CTD)
TIE Scout  
this limited-production model of the standard TIE Fighter had severely-canted wings. Unlike the Interceptor, the wings had two planes instead of three, with the upper section bent inward more than the lower section. These ships, designed to scout for pirate and rebel activity, were packed with long-range sensors and communications arrays. They were lightly armored and armed, to allow for the additional equipment. (CCG)
TIE Ships  
Twin Ion-Engined small attack ships used as defensive guard ships around larger cruisers (such as Star Destroyers). Each is a single-pilot ship which lacks a hyperdrive and life support system due to their small size and expendability. The wings are covered with solar panels for collecting energy that can be transferred to the engines. Originally designed by Republic Seinar Systems, they were not built until the Empire assumed control, and RSS became Seinar Fleet Systems. There are many different variations of the basic TIE design, each built for unique purposes. (SW, ESB, SCRE)
TIE Subfighter  
this form of TIE Fighter is a smaller version of the original, and is armed with a concussion missile launcher and a single blaster cannon. (SWJ9)
TIE Tank  
a ground assault vehicle modeled after the TIE starfighter, this vehicle was properly called the Century Tank, although its resemblance to the TIE Fighter earned it its other names of TIE Tank and TIE Crawler. This ground vehicle was the first craft designed and built by the Seinar Army Systems division of the Santhe/Seinar Technologies group, during the period following the Battle of Endor. The 6.7-meter craft was essentially the cockpit of a TIE Fighter linked to a pair of outboard treads, armed with a light turbolaser and two medium blaster cannons. It was designed to be a cheap, mass-produced ground combat vehicle. Twin Santhe SSct power generators supplied energy to the treads, but were only strong enough to move the tank at 90 kilometers an hour. They were easily repaired because most of their systems were basic in design to cut down on production costs. Disabled or damaged TIE Tanks could be quickly repaired in most situations, and abandoned Tanks were often scavenged for parts. (DE1, DESB, EGV, SWDB)
TIE Vanguard  
this reconnaissance fighter was deployed to gather information of enemy starship movements before engaging the fleet in battle. Built from the basic TIE/rc design, the Vanguard's solar collectors were smaller on the top half than on the bottom. The top part was also bent slightly outward. The central ball of the strafighter was equipped with enhanced communications equipment. (CCG2, SWDB)
TIE/D  
pilotless TIE/droid unit fighters run by onboard droids, designed by Arndall Lott following the Battle of Endor. Lott used the Katana fleet as an inspiration, seeing that the automated systems could work if implemented correctly. Lott originally automated the AT-AT, but his early work suffered from lack of computer power. The TIE/D has received the best automation the Empire could afford, and could be used as independent fighters or computer-slaved squadrons. However, the initial TIE/Ds were not very powerful, and were only effective in large numbers. The TIE/D measured 6.1 meters, and resemble the center section of a TIE Fighter with squared-off TIE Interceptor-like wings which were flat and tilted. The TIE/D was armed with a pair of laser cannons, and lacked a hyperdrive. A Cybot Galactica Ace-6 combat droid brain served as the heart of the ship, but was shown to be greatly inferior to human pilots. The TIE/D, although produced in large volumes in an attempt to overwhelm New Republic starfighters, was primarily produced by the nuclear furnaces and factories of World Devastators. When these were destroyed over Calamari, the primary sources of the TIE/Ds were eliminated. (DE1, DESB, EGV, SWDB)
TIE/fc  
a specially-equipped TIE fighter used for relaying targeting and fire control information back to the capital ships of a main fleet, the TIE/fc measured 6.3 meters in length and was armed with a single laser cannon. In addition to augmenting the targeting abilities of capital ships, the TIE/fc proved valuable in assisting the targeting of TIE Fighters. (SWSB, SWJ10, SWDB)
TIE/gt  
a specially-equipped TIE fighter used for carrying bombs and torpedoes to support ground troops. It was the predecessor to the TIE Bomber, but was a bit more maneuverable. Based on the standard TIE/ln, it measured 6.3 meters in length and was armed with a single laser cannon and a concussion missile launcher. Although large targets were easily locked by the TIE/gt's computers, it more often worked in concert with a TIE/fc to ensure pinpoint accuracy. The cockpit of the TIE/gt was reinforced and elongated to allow for its payloads, which could include twelve concussion missiles, six proton torpedoes, two cluster bombs, or eighteen mines. Among the more unusual missions of the TIE/gt was the deployment of propaganda leaflets. The name referred to its ground targetting ability. (SWSB, SWJ10, SWJ15, SWDB)
TIE/ln  
the basic TIE fighter design. See TIE Fighter. (SWSB)
TIE/rc  
a specially-equipped TIE fighter which employs sophisticated sensors and long-range communications equipment for reconnaissance. Because of the additional power and space requirements of this equipment, the TIE/rc was armed with a single laser cannon. A specialized variant of this craft was known as the TIE Vanguard. (SWSB, SWJ10, SWDB)
TIE/rc Vanguard

TIE/rpt  
this was the designation of the TIE Raptor starfighter developed by Warlord Zsinj. (CTD)
TIE/sh  
this was the designation of a version of the standard Imperial TIE Fighter which was equipped to shuttle small numbers of personnel between ground-based operations to orbital craft. It was an alternative to the expensive Lambda-class shuttles, which were generally reserved for high-ranking officials. The TIE/sh could be built for less, and could be deployed to line officers who were at or near battlelines. At 7.8 meters in length, and equipped with a double hull to accommodate its passegers, the TIE/sh was the design basis for the TIE Bomber. Although not meant for combat, the TIE/sh was armed with a single laser cannon. The ship could also be used to transport up to a metric ton of cargo. (SWJ10, SWDB)
TIE/SR  
Seinar's designation of the TIE Scout. (CCG)
TIE/x1  
this was the model designation of the TIE Advanced x1 starfighter. (SWJ5)
TIE/x2  
this was the follow-on version of the TIE Advanced x1 starfighter. Like its predecessor, the TIE/x2 was equipped with a hyperdrive. Also like the x2, the x2 was a prorotype design which was never destined for mass production. It was believed that the TIE/x3 would be the production model in this series. (SWJ5)
TIE/x3  
this was the model number of Sienar Fleet Systems' production-ready version of the original TIE Advanced x1 starfighter. It was given faster sublight engines, larger solar panels, and enhanced combat systems. However, unlike both the x1 and x2 versions, the TIE/x3 lacked a hyperdrive. (SWJ5)

this Imperial officer accompanied Thrawn to S'krrr, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Tier and his peer officer, Wolver, were killed in attacks from drog beetles. (GOF8)
Tiercan Dam  
this immense, durasteel dam was erected on the planet Duro several centuries before the surface of the planet was scoured by toxic wastes. Measuring 780 meters in height and spanning two full kilometers, Tiercan Dam was visible for miles around. In the wake of the ecological disaster that destroyed Duro's ecosystem, the Empire stripped Tiercan Dam for its durasteel, leaving only the main exostructure. (GMR2)
Tierce, Grodin  
this former Imperial stromtrooper and Royal Guard served under Moff Disra. Tierce managed to survive the destruction of the second Death Star by the simple fact that he was not there, having been rotated out of active duty as Guardsman at the time. He later served as one of Grand Admiral Thrawn's stromtroopers aboard the Chimaera, but didn't count on Rukh actually killing Thrawn. Tierce's unit, upon hearing of Thrawn's death, intercepted and executed Rukh. A cold, calculating man, Tierce was drawn into Disra own plans for the remnants of the Empire as he was furthering his own schemes. Serving as a Naval Major, Tierce tried to remain a minor aide to Disra, but felt that the old man was getting in his way. He took control of the military aspects of their plans after Disra introduced Flim as a reborn Thrawn. Tierce recognized the short-comings of Flim's performance, and had Thrawn's genetic records altered to match Flim's. He then cut off Disra's supply of clones to Zothip and the Cavrilhu Pirates, making it clear to Disra that the Empire would need them more than the pirates. He claimed that he was only trying to avenge the death of Palpatine. He also learned that Thrawn had set up a number of sleeper cells on Republic worlds, and worked to activate them in an effort to garner more troops. Tierce also hired the Vengeance group to begin a series of ritos which, on the surface, were the result of the Caamas Incident. His work with Disra dn Flim was cut short when Admiral Pellaeon discovered that Tierce was, in fact, a clone of the original Grodin Tierce. The history files in the Imperial Records Library noted that Tierce died in the assault on Generis while serving under the original Thrawn, ten years before the Caamas Incident. Thrawn created the clone himself, using Tierce's fierce loyalty and soldier acumen and merging it with much of Thrawn's own intellect and cunning. The hope was that this new regime of clones would supplant the Imperial warlords and take control of the Empire. Pellaeon discovered that Tierce was created just two months prior to Thrawn's death, but the experiement was cut short when Thrawn realized that he had not created a leader, just a tactically brilliant stormtrooper. Tierce was the first - and last - of his line. Upon hearing of this, Shada D'ukal - who had accompanied Pellaeon - killed Tierce with one of her zenji needles. (SOP, VOF)
Tierell  
the people of this planet were struggling with a repressive government when a coup occurred some five years after the Battle of Naboo. A small group of mercenaries was called in to force the leader of the government to step down, and he was eventually assassinated. Anakin Skywalker later learned that the mercenary group had been led by Gillam Tarturi, and was made up of students from the Leadership School on Andara. Marit Dice was actually the individual who shot the leader, although she claimed that he shot was in self-defense, fired during a blaster fight with security forces. Gillam claimed that the outcome was even better than forcing the leader out of power, and commended Marit for her actions. Marit, however, refused to pick up a firearm afterward, making her presence on the mercenary team expendible. (JQ5)
Tieren Nie-Tan  
this horse-faced Jedi Knight was a contemporary of Jude Rozess and Theen Fida. He was on guard when the Yinchorri invaded the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. He and Rozess were the primary guards on duty at the time, and were caught by the sheer numbers of Yinchorri warriors. (AOW)
Tieress  
this was the title used by the consort of the Satab of the planet Ventooine. (LTA5, MCA2)
Tierfon  
planet in the Sumitra Sector that housed a secret Alliance fighter base during the Galactic Civil War. The Alliance used this base to patrol the Sumitra Sector and to provide escorts for secret convoys. Located on a steep cliff face overlooking a deep valley, the Alliance had perfect views for miles around. They dug deep into the rock, and built maintenance and refueling sites for convoy ships. The base was guarded by defensive lasers and the X-Wings based there, but had little other defenses. The base was run by 12 command personnel, and maintained 18 pilots and 54 ground troops. 74 support and technical staff were also stationed there. The base supported 5 airspeeders, 2 landspeeders, 4 speeder bikes, and 8 X-Wing starfighters. An MD-1 and an MD-2 droid provided medical support. Tierfon base was the base for the famous Yellow Aces Squadron. (SWSB, MTS)
Tierfon Outpost  
this was another name used to describe the Alliance's fighter base on the planet Tierfon. (AIR)
Tiernvael Mountains  
this range of mountains was located on the planet Ambria, near the Meditative Canyon. These mountains were found on the planet's north central continent, just above the equator. The weather patterns near the Tiernvael Mountains were greatly affected by Ambria's rings, and sudden storms and long droughts were not uncommon. (PJSB)
Tiethiagg  
an Ithorian poet and philosopher, many historians consider Tiethiagg the driving force behind the Ithorian social conscience. (RPG)

Tig Fromm  
Sise Fromm's son, this Annoo-dat went by the names of Baby-face Fromm and Junior Fromm. He liked to meddle with modern technology, and he built the weapons satellite Trigon One to help keep the inhabitants of Annoo in line. His dreams of supremacy were shattered when Demma Moll and her freedom fighters, assisted by R2-D2 and C-3PO, destroyed the satellite. Tig Vlix then spent many months trying to regain favor with Sise Fromm, trying to capture the rebels who destroyed the satellite. Unfortunately, Tig and Vlix were captured by Boba Fett on Boonta, and the pair were turned over to Jabba the Hutt. (DCAR)
Tiga Loreng  
this bird, native to the planet Bimmisaari, was known for its beautiful plumage. (EGP)
Tigbwi

Tigellinus, Rufaan  
this commander of the Star Destroyer Avatar, this Imperial Grand Admiral was inducted into Coruscant's Order of the Canted Circle during the height of the New Order. Tigellinus' admission into the exclusive order was somewhat unusual, because his involvement with the Order was minimal when compared to other important dignitaries. His rapid admission was attributed to his politcal savvy and connections to Emperor Palpatine, most notably his relationship with Alec Pradeux. His admission was also unusual in that it came during a period of rapid growth for the Order: Tigellinus was the thirteenth new member in seven years. Emperor Palpatine himself assigned Tigellinus to investigate the incredible growth of Moff Jerrod Maclain's personal wealth, shortly before the Battle of Hoth. It was rumored that Maclain was obtaining insider trading information from the Dajaal family, in return for political favors and tax breaks. Tigellinus was a strong supporter of Moff Disra, even when the Moff was out of favor with the Emperor. Later, when Emperor Palpatine made Thrawn the newest Grand Admiral, Tigellinus - a known human elitist - befriended Thrawn with every intention of betraying him later. Once Thrawn was discredited and dispatched to the Unknown Regions, Tigellinus began to assert his own powerful influence. He was soon named a Grand Moff, but only his old friend Disra supported his actions. Tigellinus disliked the fact that a non-human, Hissa, had also been named Moff, but was unable to sway the other to see his point of view. When Hissa was named the leader of the Central Committee of Grand Moffs, in the wake of the Battle of Endor, he took the opportunity to discredit Tigellinus and eliminate his dissenting voice. Hissa offered Tigellinus a subordinate role, which Tigellinus refused on the advice of Disra. For his insubordination, Tigellinus was executed on the spot, and Disra gladly agreed to take his place. (SWJ8, SWJ9, SWJ14, SWI66, OWS)

Tiger  
this was one of the multitude of Imperial-class Star Destroyers which made up the Imperial Navy fleet, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (XW)
Tight Wing  
this was a military tactic, used to enhance the abilities of a group of starfighters by condensing their formation into a tight grouping. While this eliminated maneuverability, it increased the amount of firepower from a single unit. The ability to maintain a tight wing often lasted just a few moments, during the opening engagement of a battle, when pilots of lesser skill dropped behind the main wing because they couldn't match the speed or direction of their wingmates. (SOG)
Tigona Minamore  
this was the name of a distingished member of the Toong society. (UANT)
Tigress  
this Alliance agent was hidden as a librarian within the Imperial archives. She befriended the Lady Amber Comark, despite her father's position as an Imperial Moff. When Tigress was discovered, she was quickly removed from her position and tortured. Amber felt nearly powerless as the Empire's interrogation eventually killed Tigress, until she resolved to pick up where Tigress left off. The lapse in contact between the two "Tigress" agents caused some concern within Alliance Intelligence, although Amber's help in exposing the Death-Hunter project was invaluable. (SWJ9)
Tigris  
a Firrerreo youth, son of Hethrir and Rillao. It was hoped that Tigris would have a great deal of Force sensitivity, given that his parents were both Jedi. Their master, Darth Vader, hoped that their son would grow to become a great Sith warrior. However, Tigris was born without any Force sensitivity whatsoever, and was all but forgotten by his father. Rillao placed him on one of the Firrerreo colony ships, but Hethrir discovered him there and woke him up. Tigris was then relegated to slave status, doing whatever menial tasks Hethrir appointed. When Hethrir's treachery was revealed to Tigris at Crseih Station, he was through into a mass of emotional confusion. His mother took him back, to begin drawing him out of the shell Hethrir had built. (CS)
Tih Qiqah  
this elderly Yuuzhan Vong Shaper was in charge of maintaining the Baanu Miir, during the invasion of the New Republic's galaxy. Tih Qiqah died about a year before the Battle of Duro, and had been unable to stop the aging of the worldship using the standard protocols of the Shapers. During his last year of life, Tuh Qiqah demanded a stream of creche-tales be told to him, as his mind slowly degenerated. Suung Aruh, the closest thing Tih Qiqah had to an apprentice, learned little from the old being. (EVR)

Tiirtha  
this male Tarasin served as the Father of his tribe during the height of the Clone Wars. He was one of the first to openly question Mother Dariana's call for unity among the Tarasin, especially after Cularin was placed under martial law and the Tarasin were driven from their homes. Like many other Tarasin, Father Tiirtha feared that Dariana's plans for the Tarasin would kill their people, not strengthen them. Thus, he was unprepared when Dariana said that she would step down, if it would help the Tarasin survive. He was further taken aback when she announced that Tiirtha himself would be her successor. In order to secure his position, Tiirtha was quick to agree to Dariana's two terms. First, she was allowed to serve out the remainder of the year as the Tarasin leader. Second, her orders and commands during that year were to be carried out without question. Tiirtha was the first to honor these requests, and gladly laid down his weapons when Dariana asked for peace among the tribes. (LFCW)

Tikiarri  
a fierce, primitive race native to the jungles of the planet Joralla, the Tikiarri descended from predatory avians and remained fearsome predators throughout their history. Their average lifespan is about 30 Jorallan years, but only because so many males die in combat before they are twenty. They were made even more dangerous when a foolish trader introduced the Tikiarri to blaster technology, which gave the Tikiarri a distincyt advantage. Over the years, many of their hunts involved killing offworlders in order to obtain their blaster weapons. (PG1)

Tikkes  
this Quarren businessbeing was elected as a Senator by the Quarren on Calamari during the last decades of the Old Republic. Over time, Tikkes amased a huge fortune through the corruption and graft which sprung up shortly before Chancellor Valorum was voted out of power. During the year leading up to the Battle of Naboo, Senator Tikkes began to side with Orn Free Taa and the Senators who opposed Chancellor Finis Valorum's command of the Old Republic. As the years wore on and planets began to secede from the stagnating Republic, Senator Tikkes was one of the many voices in the Senate who called for the direct formation of the Army of the Republic, rather than voting on it and having the Amry's formation delayed by the constant bickering of the Senate. However, any political sway Senator Tikkes might have had was eliminated when he was implicated as part of a Thalassian slavery ring. Tikkes was taken to prison on Calamari and was replaced by Tundra Dowmeia, but later jumped bail and fled the planet. It was believed that Tikkes joined the Confederacy of Independent Systems shortly afterward. (IG1, COD, HNN4, HNN5, SWDB)

Till  
this ensign in the Alliance's navy was young and inexperienced, and tended to babble in tense situations. (RA2)
T'ill  
a fragrant, flowering plant native to Alderaan, the t'ill was also quite attractive to look at. Extracts created from the t'iil were used to soothe the pain of a sore throat, and the leaves of the plant were used to create a soothing tea. Within the golden, trumpet-shaped blossom of the t'iil was a single drop of nectar, which was harvested and used to distill l'lahsh. It took more than a thousand hand-picked blossoms to produce a single bottle of l'lahsh. (SWR, JPL, GF, SWJ11, SWEPH)
Till Chorios  
a planet. (HNN5)
Till, Essara  
this woman served the Naboo Security Force as the flight instructor for Bravo Squadron, serving under Ric Olie'. As a youth, Essara grew bored with her education in the arts and philosophy. She left Naboo when she turned nineteen, and for thirteen years worked as a pilot outside the Naboo System, gathering experience before returning to serve in her homeworld's military. She returned because hated the greed which was taking over the galaxy, and wanted to make sure that her homeworld was made aware of the growing discontent in the galaxy. It was rumored that Essara had become bored with starfighting. After her return to Naboo and her appointment to Bravo Squadron, she developed a personal relationship with her wingmate, Dren Melne. She took the role of training Echo Flight, shortly before the Battle of Naboo, despite the fact that Dren wanted her to leave Naboo with him to work for the government of Agamar. During the defense of station TFP-9, it was revealed that Dren had actually made up his mind to leave the Naboo. Essara was unprepared for the treacherous way Dren decided to leave, and was forced to shoot him down when he began attacking Echo Flight pilots. She nearly killed him, but the droid starfighters in the hold of the Velumina overwhelmed her small force. Essara was forced to surrender to Sorran's pirates. (SFT)

Tilnes  
this was the outer moon of the planet Cularin. A lifeless world, Tilnes' orbit took it in between Cularin and Morasil at such a rate that the surface of Tilnes grew quite hot. Despite this, a form of scrub grass did grow on the surface, and yri worms inhabited the crust. During the Old Republic, a number of mining corporations took up residence on Tilnes, hoping to make their fortunes harvesting crystals. These crystals were discovered to be applicable in the creation of lightsabers, and even the flawed crystals could be used in blasters such as the T-32S. Because of the moon's orbit, these mining operations were forced to build their bases underground, and Tilnes was soon riddled by a network of tunnels. The construction and maintenance of these tunnels led to the startling discoveries of two hidden bases - one owned by the Caarites, and the other owned by the Thaereian Military - shortly after the onset of the Clone Wars. The discoveries, coupled with the hard times incurred by the Clone Wars, meant that the Tilnes mines were no longer as profitable as they had once been. (LFC, WOTC)
Tilossa  
this middle-aged Gotal was a minor crimelord who owned and operated The Puddle during the height of the Galactic Civil War. He made a living selling water and renting property, and funneled the profits into protecting the area from assault.

In a battle of strengths, Tilotny and the other deities solidified the bodies of Leia and a squadron of stormtroopers, but soon grew bored of the sport. They left Splendid Ap to return the humans to their original forms. (CSWDW)

Timbra Ott  
this planet, located in the Kathol Outback, stands at the far end of the Galtea Run. Originally settled as a sister colony to Gandle Ott in order to accommodate those settlers who were looking for more isolation than usual, Timbra Ott became a penal colony maintained by the government of Kal'Shebbol after a series of earthquakes and tidal waves destroyed much of the settlement there. The planet's natural beauty recovered in time, and the convicts who were exiled there worked hard to make the planet liveable. When the Empire decided to strand the colonists on Timbra, rather than maintaining the facility, a series of riots broke out before a group of individuals took control of the planet and formed their own government. Since that time, the planet has re-asserted itself as a simple colony world, although most other residents of the Kathol Outback still consider the people of Timbra Ott to be convicts and criminals. (KO)
Timbu

Timeshadow  
this unusual aftereffect of the use of the Darkstaff was reported by a small number of beings who were native to the planet Cularin, during the final years of the Old Republic. Because the Darkstaff made the entire Cularin System jump some ten years forward in time, strange things began to happen in the system. Certain individuals experienced the timeshadow, in which a "copy" of themselves was created in an alternate timeline. This "copy" was an exact duplicate of the original being, and existed simulateously with the original. However, when the original individual died, they were suddenly "replaced" with their timeshadow copy. The event was disconcerting to the individual, since they believed themselves dead. Those beings who experienced this effect reported no hamrful side effects from the replacement. The timeshadow copy lived the rest of its life and died in what appeared to be normal fashion, although the effect only occurred once, since the timeshadow's energy was spent in bringing the original back to life. (LFCW)
Timespan  
this ship, owned by the Alliance and based on Yavin 4, was the only transport available to Trux Zissu as he prepared to travel to Delantine.

Timpel, Marus  
a native of the planet Coruscant, this man was a Jedi Knights serving the Old Republic some 600 years before the Battle of Yavin. While on Coruscant, Timpel worked with the Jedi Council to screen potential candidates for training. One of these candidates was a young Gotal who was too old and lacked a deep connection to the Force. Life continued for Timpel, but he often found himself unable to adequately complete his missions due to the limitations and restrictions imposed by the Jedi Council. Years later, on a mission to Antar 4, Timpel once again encountered the Force-sensitive Gotal he had dismissed years ago. The Gotal, known as Kaskutal, still harbored resentment toward the Jedi Order, but it was overshadowed by his admiration for the work of the Jedi Knights. Putting aside their differences, Timpel and Kaskutal began discussing the need for more action by the Jedi Order. Timpel decided that it was time to form an organization which was separate from the Jedi Order yet allied with their ideals and goals. Along with funding from Kaskutal, Timpel formed the Antarian Rangers. Unfortunately, Timpel died shortly afterward, leaving the administration of the Rangers to Kaskutal. (WOTC, HG)

this planet was known for its beautiful coastlines. (COG)
Tindark  
this platform city was established on the planet Cularin, and was built on a platform in reaction to the Tarasin concerns for the environment of Cularin. Gadrin and her sister city, Hedrett, had expanded rapidly since beign founded by Reidi Artom, and the Tarasin feared that uncontrolled growth would seriously impact the growth and future of the sacred ch'hala trees. Crime was a major concern in Tindark, and the police were forced to exaggerate their presence in order to control it. Tindark was the site of SoroSuub Corporation's corporate offices in the Cularin System, and was also the headquarters of the Metatheran Cartel. (LFC)

Tingel  
this was the pseudonym of the Alliance agent who formed Tingel's Ghosts on the planet Mrlsst, during the early years of the Galactic Civil War. (LOE)
Tingel Arm  
this area of the Corporate Sector was where most of the fighting between the Authority and the Trianii took place. In the realignment which occurred after the Battle of Endor and the eventual formation of a peace treaty between the Imperials and the New Republic, the Tingel Arm was located directly between the Corporate Sector and the Imperial Remnant. Despite its location, the Tingel Arm remained one of the least explored areas of the galaxy. Many xenobiologists theorized that the Yuuzhan Vong could have developed in this area, instead of in another galaxy. The Tingel Arm was the entry point of the Yuuzhan Vong during their invasion of the galaxy, with the planets Belkadan and Helska being the first to fall to the alien invaders. (CSA, HT, SBS)
Tingel's Ghosts  
this was the name of the Alliance cell which tracked Imperial movements in Tapani Sector by prowling the infonets of the planet Mrlsst. Founded by an agent known only as Tingel, this group managed to obtain most of its information by pirating it from the local Imperial security Bureau computers. (LOE)
Tingler, The  
this form of personal shield was developed some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. It was designed to absorb and store electrical energy that was used as a weapon. This energy was then released slowly over time, so as not to injure the user. However, this discharge system made the inner edge of the shield vibrate, earning it the nickname of The Tingler. (KOTOR)
Tinian  
this given name was commonly given to female human children throughout the galaxy. (GCG)
Tinisho  
this was a common name among the Cathar race. (UANT)

Tinmolok  
this Etti Marl-class freighter was part of the growing fleet which was funded by the Peace Brigade, and transported supplies and weapons to those worlds which supported the Yuuzhan Vong. The Tinmolok was the first such ship hijacked by Han Solo and his wife, Leia Organa Solo, during the creation and supplying of Luke Skywalker's Great River. Among the cargoes discovered on the ship were amphistaffs which had been grown on Wayland. (EVR)
Tinn VI  
this gas giant was the primary planet in the Tinn System, which had seven planets orbiting a pair of normal organe stars. Tinn VI itself had six natural satellites which have become outposts in the Tinn System. Located in the Outer Rim Territories, Tinn VI was a huge world which generated an intense magnetic field. This field has the effect of stripping a starship of its magnetic shielding, causing fusion generators to become unstable. The swirling atmosphere of Tinn VI was composed mainly of hydrogen, nitrogen, and ammonium. (SWJ4)
Tinn VI-B  
this was the identifier used to name the second moon of Tinn VI. (SWJ4)
Tinnel IV  
this Core world was located in the Quanta Sector. (SWJ6)
Tinnell  
this race of feline humanoids was native to an unknown Mid-Rim world. They appear to be completely clueless about the galaxy around them, but in fact were excellent mechanics and improvisors. Many of the contraptions they create are unwieldy and ugly, but function at or above the specifications of new components, making them valuable assets to starship crews. (SWJ1)
Tinn'lyi  
this nation of humans lived on the Tinn'lyis Islands of the planet Corsin, and had a somewhat symbiotic relationship with the selligores of the ocean. The Tinn'lyi would gather plant material and leave it on shore for the selligores to feed on, and in return the selligores would allow the Tinn'lyi to drag large nets behind them in order to catch fish. This is the only known contact between humankind and the selligores. (COG)
Tinn'lyis Islands  
this chain of tropical islands was located on the planet Corsin, and was inhabited by natives known as the Tinn'lyi. (COG)

Tino  
this young man, a native of Simpla-12, was Ren S'orn's roommate and a friend to Cholly, Weez, and Tup. Unlike the other three, Tino tried to make something of himself and actually got a job. Tino found himself the object of a hunt by Ona Nobis, who had been paid by Jenna Zan Arbor to eliminate Tino, as he was a link to Ren's death. Tino escaped, thanks to the efforts of Oib-Wan Kenobi and Astri Oddo. Tino then explained who scared Ren was of Zan Arbor, and told them of Captain Yur T'aug's dropping of the investigation into Ren's death. (EVE)
Tinok-F Patrol Cloud Car  
produced by Bakur RepulsorCorp, this 7.3-meter-long vehicle was produced for use by law enforcement agencies. It was crewed by a pilot and a gunner, and was armed with a pair of blaster cannons. The Tinok-F had a flight ceiling of fifty meters, and could attain speeds of 950 kilometers per hour. (TBSB)
Tinotkin, Shok  
this man, a native of the planet Rhommamool, was Nom Anor's primary advisor shortly before the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. He was aware of the plan to use coomb spores to poison humans, and was part of the plot to poison Mara Jade Skywalker to determine the strength of the Jedi Knights. Following Nom Anor's brief expatriation in the aftermath of the loss of Helska, Tinotkin was sacrficied to Yun-Harla, the Yuuzhan Vong deity worshipped by Nom Anor. (VP, BP)

Tiny F  
see TINYF (LFCW)
Tiny F  
this was the handle used by one of Cularin's most enigmatic slicers, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. It was Tiny F who discovered an encrypted transmission from Jir Tramsig to the Thaereian Military leaders dispersed throughout the Cularin System, demanding that the Thaereians crush any and all resistance they encountered immediately. Tramsig's message apparently expressed a certain fear that the Cularin Militia might be able to rally the populace to oppose any Thaereian control. The message eventually found its way to the Cularin Militia and Senator Lavina Wren, who took the message quite seriously. (LFCW)
TINYF  
this acronym began showing up as graffiti on the buildings of Cularin, during the early stages of the Clone Wars. As it began to spread to buttons, shirts, and stickers, the population became aware that it stood for "Thaere Is Not Your Friend," and was an open criticism of the presence of the Thaereian Military in the Cularin System. After a news report by Ryk Osentay, many beings simply referred to the acronym as "Tiny F". (LFCW)
Tion  
this planet, sometimes referred to as Tion Proper, was considered the original center of the Tion Hegemony. (GORW)
Tion  
an Imperial noble, he was also a task force leader for the Emperor. He was working with Grand Moff Tarkin to secure supplies and military backing for Tarkin's Death Star project. During this time, he commanded the Imperial-I class Star Destroyer Devastator in the destruction of the Alliance base on Ralltiir. While on Ralltiir, he became enamored of Princess Leia. She used this infatuation to allow her to escape the planet without Imperial intercession. Later, after Leia and her father, Bail Organa, learned about the Empire's plans to build the first Death Star, the Organas invited Tion to Alderaan for a dinner, during which they would try to obtain more information on the battle station. They were able to discover from Tion that the plans were being moved to the Imperial vaults, but Leia could not control her anger. She accidentally let Tion know she had inside information by revealing the code name 'Death Star,' and he attempted to arrest her. A struggle ensued, and Tion was killed when he tried to pull his blaster on Leia, and instead fired it on himself. Lord Tion was portrayed by John Considine for the Star Wars Radio Drama on National Public Radio. (SWR)
Tion Cluster  
this was a cluster of stars found in one of the spiral arms of the galaxy. It was comprised of some 12,000 stars, 600 habitable worlds, and three major sectors. The sectors were the Cronese Mandate, the Tion Hegemony, and the Allied Tion. For many millennia, the Tion considered itself the home of humanity, even after Xim the Despot united it with many other surrounding star systems. However, more than 1,100 years after Xim's death, traders moving down the Perlemian Trade Route made contact with the peoples of the Tion. This sparked the Tion to action, especially when the natives of the Tion Cluster learned about the hyperdrive. They coveted the technologies of the fledgling Old Republic, and tried to take it by force. This plan backfired, as the forces of the Old Republic managed to drive the Tion ships back into their home systems before pitting the Tion Cluster against the Hutts. Then, bands of Jedi Knights were sent into the Tion Cluster, and the systems it contained were eventually absorbed into the Republic. (ML, GORW)
Tion Commerce Tower  
this was one of the prmiary commercial buildings located on the planet Lianna, during the last decades of the Old Republic. (GCG)
Tion Hauling  
this transfer and transport company was owned by Amatha Fetz, and was based on Lianna. (ML)
Tion Hegemony  
known as the Ancient and Honorable Union of the Tion Hegemony, this sector of the Tion Cluster was a collection of 27 star systems found among the furthest reaches of the galaxy. It was far from the Core Worlds, but embraced some of the oldest and most ancient human civilizations in the galaxy. During the early years of the Old Republic, the Tion Hegemony was ruled by Xim the Despot. Before Xim, the Livien League controlled the Hegemony. As the Republic grew and the Tion Hegemony was "liberated," the sector saw a decline it its fortunes. However, the Hegeomny remained the breadbasket of the Tion, providing foodstuffs for all three of the Tion's sectors. When Emperor Palpatine rose to power and instituted the New Order, the Tion Hegemony was torn asunder. The Keldrath Alignment and the Indrexu Confederation were removed and incorporated into their own sectors, while the remaining areas of space were split into the Allied Tion and the Cronese Mandate. What remained of the Tion Hegemony was a mere shadow of itself, a fact made all the more humiliating when the Hegemony was only given a minor presence on the Imperial Senate. The Tion Hegemony, being so far from Imperial control, became a home to many out-of-work smugglers, swindlers, and con artists who were trying to improve their lots in life. Han Solo even worked for Grigmin on the planet Saheelideel for many months, during the early years of the New Order. Note that Agents of Chaos: Hero's Trial states that the outer reaches of Hegemony were made up of 175 planets. Also note that Geonosis and the Outer Rim Worlds indicates that the Tion Hegemnony crumbled many thousands of years before the Galactic Civil War. (HSR, HSL, ML, HT, GORW)
Tion Industries  
this megacorporation, based in the Tion Hegemony, produced a wide range of corporate and civilian products. (GFT)
Tion Medon  
this gray-skinned Pau'an served as the Portmaster of Pau City, on his homeworld of Utapau, for more than 200 years. Tion Medon could trace his family history back to Timon Medon. Although outwardly neutral, Medon was loyal to the Old Republic during the Clone Wars and in the wake of those hostilities. He was unprepared for the arrival of General Grievous and a small Separatist army, which quickly took control of Utapau and established a base of operations there. Grievous eliminated the ruling members of Utapau's government, which left Tion Medon ostensibly in control of his planet. This sudden turn of events led Tion Medon to order his military forces into hiding, so that the Separatists wouldn't be able to discern the true military strength of the Utapauns. Thus, when Obi-Wan Kenobi suddenly appeared in Pau City, Tion Medon provided him with a wealth of information on Grievous' forces arrayed in the city. Tion Medon also placed the Utapaun military at the command of the Republic's forces, with Utai soldiers augmenting the clone troopers during the fight to control Pau City. Although Grievous was defeated by Obi-Wan Kenobi, the clone forces were given Order 66 by Darth Sidious. They turned on Kenobi, who managed to escape, then set about subjugating Utapau. Tion Medon was one of the first Pau'ans to be imprisoned, as his resourcefulness was well-known. Tion Medon was portrayed by Bruce Spence in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith. (OWS, SWI77, ROF, VD3, SWDB)

this small shipping company operated in the Tion Hegemony when Han Solo was a smuggler, during the early years of the New Order. Despite its size, Tion Starfreight managed to claim a large portion of the transport market from Santhe Passenger and Freight. (HSL, GORW)
Tion, Nenevanth  
this young man, a native of the planet Lianna, was just fifteen when he traveled to Coruscant to attend a gathering of the Commission for the Protection of the Republic, during the height of the Clone Wars. He gave a rousing speech to his fellow youths, using quotes from the Kitel Phard Dynasty to defend his support of Chancellor Palpatine and the Old Republic. (SWI70)
Tionese  
this old language was the primary tongue spoken in the Tion Hegemony, before the galaxy's acceptance of the Basic language. (SSR)
Tion-Hyme, Alreeda  
this woman served as the chairman of the Allied Tion Historical Society, during the last decades of the Old Republic. She was one of the driving forces behind the touring museum display known as "Cradle of the Galaxy," which presented a wealth of artifacts from pre-Republic galactic civiliation. (HNN4)
Tionne  
one of Luke's first Jedi apprentices on Yavin 4, Tionne was a near-human minstrel and historian. A native of the planet of Rindao, she learned of the Force from her grandmother, who instilled in Tionne the passion for ancient Jedi legends. This was unusual, for all knowledge of the Jedi was thought to have been eradicated from her homeworld. Because of her retellings of the Jedi histories, Tionne's grandmother was executed by Imperial stormtroopers in a public square. Tionne took her grandmother's stringed instrument and fled the planet, searching for any trace of information on the Jedi. She had very little Force-sensitivity, but Luke Skywalker saw enough promise in her that he invited her to help discover the ancient Jedi teachings. She eventually became a full Jedi Knight, but her powers were somewhat limited. Nevertheless, she put her talents to good use, serving as a historian and administrator of the Yavin 4 praxeum. She eventually fell in love with Kam Solusar, and the two were married shortly before the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy. Kam and Tionne served as the caretakers of the youngest Jedi trainees during the invasion, gathering them aboard the Errant Venture and eventually settling them into a new base at the Maw Installation. Tionne and Kam were ultimately among the handful of Jedi Knights to survive the conflict with the Yuuzhan Vong. (DA, HTF, EGC, L, GG, JASB, DTO, SWJ15, UF)
Tipagna  
this young human was a child of the Fallanassi. He, along with several other children, were taken to the planet Teyr when the Fallanassi fled the Empire. Tipagna and his family lived in Griann before the Fallanassi deemed it necessary to move again. (SOL)
Tipoca City  
this was greatest of the cities based in the wind-swept oceans of the planet Kamino. Like other cities on the planet, Tipoca City was erected on heavy stilts that extended through the water and into the bedrock of the ocean floor, and spread across more than 150 kilometers of ocean surface at Kamino's western equator. These stilts had thin profiles, which allowed the crashing waves to flow around them, rather than break against them. The buildings of Tipoca City were conical in shape, with wide, flared based and tall towers at their center. This configuration allowed the strong winds which swept the planet to move around and over the buildings without much drag, eliminating a large portion of the environmental stresses they had to endure. This shape also allowed the torrential rains to flow off the roof od each building, without causing damage due to heavy, standing water. Many xenoarchaeologists attributed the design of Tipoca City to influences from Kashyyyk and Alderaan, where structures were built to become part of their environment. It was said that Tipoca City's stilt-based substructure was an example of the Alderaanian Oversea form, while the Krorral form of Kashyyyk became the basis for the domes of the city. A collection of lightning rods mounted on top of the city channeled the regular bursts of energy over and away from the building, furthering protecting the structure. Access to Tipoca City was protected by a hermetically-sealed series of airlocks, ensuring a sterile environment in which to live and work. To most beings in the galaxy, the sterile white color of Tipoca City was quite boring. However, the Kaminoans could see into spectra beyond visual light, and could discern swirling patterns in the stark walls. It was within the walls of Tipoca City that the Kaminoans established the huge cloning facility which produced the clone troopers of the Army of the Republic, during the decade leading up to the Battle of Geonosis and the Clone Wars. However, despite the amount of government and industry found within its walls, Tipoca City had but a single residential section, that being set aside for the govnerment leaders and chief scientists. The millions of Kaminoans who worked in the city each day made their homes in outlying cities. (SWI60, AOTCN, SWDB, IWE2, GORW)
Tippet  
this young Ewok male was the betrothed of Kaimda, during the months following the battle of Endor. Tippet was an upstanding Ewok from Bright Tree Village, and his position in the local government made him a powerful figure, both among the Ewoks and within the Alliance. Tippet was led to believe that Kamida was assaulted by a Lahsbee, on a false rumor planted by the Hiromi spy Hirog, setting off a war between the Ewoks and the Lahsbees. In an effort to defuse the situation, Lando Calrissian suggested that Tippet fight the Lahsbee delegate in a duel to determine who would win Kamida's hand. The fight quickly got out of hand when the Lahsbee morphed into a Huhk. When other Lahsbees joined in to subdue the Huhk, the Ewoks realized that both races were fighting over nothing. (MC94)
Tippler's Groan  
this was the name of a decrepit transport ship that made regular runs between Coruscant and Phorliss. It often stopped over on the planet Darsie. (MJEH)

Tiqc  
a small, flea-like insect native to Courkrus. (IJ)
Tira Desert  
this vast desert was located on the opposite side of the planet Sorrus from the Arra Desert. Unlike the Arra Desert, which had beenformed because of a dammed-up water supply, the Tira Desert was a natural wasteland. (EVE)
Tira Wils  
this near-human woman led a ragtag life, serving with a number of different mercenary groups before accepting a job working as a special agent for Colonel Jir Tramsig in the Cularin System during the last decades of the Old Republic. She was distinguished by her blue-green skin, white hair, and milky-white eyes. As she gained Tramisg's confidence, her role changed to his unofficial chief of security and bodyguard. (LFC)
Tiraan, Gen  
this man was a native of the planet Chandrila, and developed a talent for starship engineering. He was hired by Incom Industries, and was known as the youngest member of the X-Wing starfighter development team. He left Incom shortly after the Battle of Endor, signing on to work for a shipping company in the Corellian System. It was rumored that he was developing a more efficient sublight engine, and was going to sell its plans to the highest bidder. (WBC)
Tirac Munda

Tiraca  
this Melida was the mother of Pinani. Tiraca was killed in the long-standing battle between the Melida and the Daan. (DOD)
Tiragga  
the Alliance had a small base on this planet's second moon, but it was wiped out by an outbreak of Direllian Plague. (SWJ1)
Tirahnn  
the heroes of the Battle of Yavin stopped over on this planet, the primary world of the Tirahnn System, and were captued by Kharys and her various alien cohorts. The planet was a major trade nexus, serving as the capital of the Zeemacht Cluster of solar systems, and was under the control of the Empire during the height of the Galactic Civil War. The average day on Tirahnn lasted twenty-eigth standard hours, and its year lasted 272 local days. The planet was orbited by nine moons. (LTA1, MCA1, WOA32)
Tirahnn

Tirahnnite  
this was the term used to describe the human population of the planet Tirahnn. (WOA32)
Tiran  
this ancient Drall scientist proved, some 35,000 years before the Clone Wars, that space and time were inseparable. Tiran also proved that the speed of light was an absolute boundary that could not be crossed. Many of the physical laws he confirmed were later thrown into question by the discovery of hyperspace, and the ways in which a starship could enter and exit it with a hyperdrive. Later investigation revealed that Tiran's Theory of Universal Reference did not preclude an object traveling faster than light; it just prohibited an object traveling at the speed of light. (MBS)
Tiran Vos  
this was the name of a noted Zabrak individual. (UANT)
Tiranga  
this Hutt controlled much of the tax collection operations of the planet Socorro during the New Order. An exile from his homeworld, Tiranga suffered a debilitating spinal cord injury as a child, and was considered a runt among his own kind. As an adult, Tiranga was just 2.5 meters in length, and the majority of his torso and tail was paralyzed. However, Tiranga was nonetheless a powerful figure on this adopted homeworld fo Socorro, and had the backing of the Society of the Black Bha'lir to add credence to his position. When other Hutts learned of Tiranga's survival, they put out a death mark for his head. This effectively kept Tiranga on Socorro at all times, unless accompanied by a heavy Black Bha'lir guard. (BSS)
Tiranga's Loft  
this pleasure club was owned and operated by Tiranga the Hutt, and was located in Vakeyya, on the planet Socorro. It was here that the Hutt also held his public tax assessment proceedings. The establishment was located in a dilapidated warehouse building which was dotted with signs that indicated it was condemned. In reality, though, the interior of the warehouse was an immense bar, casino, and dance hall. A double layer of blast shields protects the building's true nature from being discovered, and layers of packed sand inside the walls help deaden any vibration and make it virtually sound-proof. The gravity inside the building is kept at two-thirds standard, in deference to Tiranga's spinal injury. Rumor had it that Lando Calrissian was a partner in the Loft, having helped finance its construction. (BSS)
Tir'arr Zur  
this was the name of a noted Ranth individual, distinguished in the history of the planet Caaraz. (UANT)
Tircee  
this was a common Ayrou name. (UANT)
Tiree  
a Rebel fighter pilot killed during the Battle of Yavin, Tiree was known for his daring raid on an Imperial-held research facility. He piloted his Y-Wing into occupied territory to liberate a team of engineers. Tiree was portrayed by Jeremy Sinden in Star Wars. (SW, JKG2)
Tiree  
Tiree was an undercover Alliance operative, posing as an aide to Governor Cuvir. This allowed Tiree to obtain large amounts of Imperial data for the Alliance in this position, until he was discovered by Cuvir when he tried to collect a datapad full of fleet movements in the Tandell System. A scuffle ensued, and Tiree was forced to shoot Cuvir. He was discovered and rescued by the medical droid 2-1B, who felt no loss at Cuvir's death. Together, they fled Imperial space for the Alliance. Tiree later fled Alliance service unexpectedly, returning to Questal to try and find out what happened to Rogan, the husband of his sister Tyerle. He was incapacitated by Moff Bandor's hurlothrumbic generator, but was eventually rescued by friends within the Alliance. After recovering, Tiree returned to the Alliance, and worked as a field agent in the Tharin and Arkanis Sectors. He was paired with Yom Argo during the Alliance's investigation of the planet Iskalon, and they worked to stir up anti-Imperial sentiments among the members of The School. In an effort to put an end to their actions, the Empire attacked and decimated their homeworld of Telfrey. (MTS, GCQ, AIR, GMR1)
Tirefin  
this was a valuable form of spice. (GMS)
Tirginni Beast  
this creature, native to an unsettled planet in Kathol Sector, was the favored prey of the mole serpent. These large beasts had scent glands which produced a distinctive smell. When extracted and refined, the scent glands produced a subtle perfume known as Tirginni Cologne. (SOT)
Tirginni Cologne  
this cologne was extracted from the scent glands of the tirginni beast, which was native to the Kathol Sector. The subtle scent of Tirginni Perfume was perceived by only a few species, among them the Noghri, Twi'leks, Whiphids, and Hutts. These species described the colgone as pleasant mildly intoxicating. Because of the fact that tirginni beasts lived on an unsettled planet, the cost for each milliliter of the cologne was quite expensive. (SOT)
Tiro, Ti-Amun  
this man was one of the handful of Jedi Masters who taught at the Almas Academy during the years surrounding the Clone Wars. He was strongly opposed to the demands from the Jedi Council on Coruscant that required all available Jedi to return for duty with the Republic Armed Forces, and turned his back on Master Jeht's explanation for the recall. (LFCW)

Tirrith  
this unusual lifeform, found on the planet Beheboth, emitted a psychometric display of lights and sound that could render a human unconscious in a matter of minutes. The Tirrith had an empathic culture, in which the feelings of one part were shared by the entire organism. The few scientists who traveled to Beheboth during the early years of the New Republic were unable to ascertain whether or not the Tirrith was a single organism made up of millions of individual minds, or whether they existed in several thousand colonies of various sizes. When a colony of Tirrith was captured by Gideon Longspar, it was forced to do his bidding until Luke Skywalker arrived on Beheboth. Longspar realized that the Tirrith exuded a mild form of knockout gas, that could be used to incapacitate individuals in combat. Longspar kept his Tirrith in a special container, releasing them when needed. Luke's contact with the Force allowed him to help free the Tirrith, after defeating Longspar in battle. The Tirrith then used their unusual abilities to seed Beheboth's atmosphere, gratefully helping to end the centuries-long drought by causing rains to fall. Shortly afterward, however, Mils Giel and his assistants, Malka and Kimp Minmirn, captured a small hive of Tirrith and began to experiment with them, creating a mutant variant of Tirrith that only wanted to kill anything it came into contact with. Contained in speciallized globes, these Tirrith were part of a living bomb that Giel believed would become the Empire's next superweapon. Under Minmirn's manipulations, these mutant Tirrith could exude a toxic version of their knockout gas, capable of killing any being in range. These Tirrith could also inflict a "mind scream" onto the mind of a Force-sensitive individual, rendering them unconscious for a short time. Evidence of Giel's plans was discovered by Luke Skywalker, in the journals kept by Malka, and this evidence was used to generate a search for Giel, in an effort to put an end to his experiments on the Tirrith.

They are extremely agile, and are very strong for their size. Their are six known races of Tiss'shar, each characterized by their unique coloration and markings. These patterns manifest themselves on the backs, arms, legs, and tails of the individual races. As a race, they are shrewd businessbeings with a flair for taking out their rivals. This has carried over into those Tiss'shar who are excellent hunters, and many of these vicious reptiles have been hired as assassins or bodyguards. (CSA, GG12)

Tiss'sharl League  
this political body governs the Tiss'shar society, and was made up from politicians and business owners whose firms posted the highest profits during the previous five years. The League was presided over by a president and vice president, each of whom was chosen from the ranks of the League's general council. During the millennia leading up to the Galactic CivilWar, the Tiss'sharl League prospered as it oversaw the production of high-tech weaponry and new environmental technologies. However, the price of this success was often death. Many Tiss'shar coveted the positions of leadership on the League's council, and achieved promotions within the League via assassination, although this was never publicly discussed. (GG12, SWEPP)
Tissue Binder  
this small device, found in many medical kits, was used to fuse together flesh in such a way that it could heal without additional damage. Because of the delicate nature of such an operation, the user of a tissue binder had to have steady hands and a strong constitution. (SHPT)
Tist  
this Karran warrior was one of the subjects studied by Doctor Nardah. He felt that hi-tech weapons would be usless against the Empire, and vowed to defeat the Imperials with his own strengths.

Titania  
this Imperial-class Star Destroyer was stationed in Kathol Sector, under the command of Imperial Moff Kentor Sarne, during the early years of the New Republic. The Titania was supported by a Dreadnaught, a Nebulon-B frigate, and a CR90 corvette. During the Battle of Kathol, the Titania took heavy damage from the Bothan Combat Response Element, but maintained enough power to continue to fires its guns. This allowed time for the Bastion and the Raptor to reach Kathol and joint he fight. Eventually, the Titania sustained too much damage, and burned up in a fiery explosion. (E)
Titanicus  
this gas giant was the fifth world in the Sacor, or Sacorria, System. It was orbited by fourteen moons. (CCW)
Titanite  
this rare mineral was found on relatively large quantities on Haariden, buried deep in the planet's crust near its core. Because of this, it was extremely difficult and expensive to mine. Its worth, however, more than made up for the cost of its extraction. Because of this, the native population of Haariden broke into civil war over the rights to control the lands over which veins of titanite were found. Experimentation with the synthesis and extraction of titanite revealed that it could be refined to produce a substance that could be used in the production of bacta. (JQ4)
Titavian  
see Goff. (WSW)
Titavian IV  
this exploration vessel was owned and operated by the Intergalactic Zoological Society during the final decades of the Old Republic. Like many other ships owned by the IZS, the Titavian IV was a floating collection of lifeforms that had been gathered from across the galaxy, in the hopes of preserving some species and investigating other. The ship was based out of Mycroft, but it was attacked and left adrift during the last stages of the Clone Wars. It was unclear whether the ship had been attacked by privateers or Separatists, but an outdated distress signal used by the Jedi Order was received from the Titavian IV by Obi-Wan Kenobi. He was surprised to find Quinlan Vos aboard ths ship, fighting off a collection of repulsor-equipped morp droids. Vos revealed that he was being tracked by Asajj Ventress and Tol Skorr, and had tried to hide out in the ship's abandoned hulk. Ventress and Skorr managed to find him, but Vos' own ship was damaged, and he was forced to fight for his freedom. He agreed to explain his situation to Obi-Wan if they were able to escape from the Dark Jedi. (RDR)

tizo'pil Yun'tchilat  
known as the Day of Comprehending the Will of the Gods, the tizo'pil Yun'tchilat was one of the most important rituals of the Yuuzhan Vong who invaded the galaxy. It was during the tizo'pil Yun'tchilat that the dhuryams which had been grown aboard Ch'Gang Hool's seedship were to determine which was to be the World Brain to be installed on Coruscant. The dhuryams had been trained to use whatever resources were available to them to maintain a complex ecosystem in The Nursery, and the tizo'pil Yun'tchilat required them to use most of those same resources to defeat the other dhuryams. Only the last, surviving dhuryam would become the World Brain. To ensure that slaves were not used to artificially influence the tizo'pil Yun'tchilat, Yuuzhan Vong warriors protected the central hub of the Nursery. Other warriors used shreeyam'tiz to further interfere with the link between the dhuryams and the slave seeds placed in the bodies of their slaves. Ideally, the dhuryams would determine their own fate, with only one dhuryam surviving to become the World Brain. Any slaves that had remained alive were executed by the Yuuzhan Vong, and the seedship was broken into a large number of smaller seedships by the dhuryam, for more effective dispersal of biological material to the target planet. When the Yuuzhan Vong tried to seed Coruscant, they were unaware of the motives of Jacen Solo, who had been aboard the seedship at the insistance of Nom Anor, who was working with Vergere to turn Solo to the True Way. As the dhuryams grew, Jacen befriended one of them, establishing a mutually beneficial relationship that helped the dhuryam outperform its brethern. However, during the tizo'pil Yun'tchilat, Jacen's efforts would have destroyed all the dhuryams - the last genetic descendents of the original World Brain on Yuuzhan'tar - if Vergere had not stepped in. Vergere pleaded with Jacen to to kill his new friend, the one surviving dhuryam, and Jacen relented. The dhuryam was installed on Coruscant, now renamed Yuuzhan'tar, and began to reshape the planet in the image of the longlost homeworld. It retained a vestige of its relationship with Jacen, and later agreed to help him monitor the Yuuzhan Vong's progress on Coruscant. (T)
Tizowyrm  
this small, grub-like creature was bio-engineered by the Yuuzhan Vong to act as a decoder. Each tizowyrm was 3-5 centimeters in length, and kept in a small coffer. When a Yuuzhan Vong needed to be able to understand and communicate with an alien species, they would insert a tizowyrm into their ear. The tizowyrm would crawl inside and lodge itself near the brain, where it would intercept the sounds of communication and store data. Each tizowyrm could store an immense amount of data as well as perform incredibly-fast, real-time manipulation of the information it received. This allowed the tizowyrm to subliminally provide the Yuuzhan Vong using it with information on how to communicate with the other species. However, the tizowyrm tired after prolonged use, and could literally vibrate itself to death if it wasn't taken out to rest. (VP)
Tizzin, Dane  
this Imperial officer was just a Lieutenant when he was placed in charge of a TIE Fighter maintenance bay. Among those working for him were the parents of the woman known as Sapphire. Tizzin was generally incompetent, however, and his lack of ability resulted in an explosion in the fighter bay. Tizzin himself was out of the bay at the time of the explosion, despite the fact that he was on-duty. His family connections within the Empire managed to remove any culpability on his part and saved his career, blaming the incident on Sapphire's parents. He later was appointed to the position of Commodore, and served as an attache to the Moff of Kira Sector. (CRO, SS)
T'jaleq Kith'Araquia  
this noted Araquia Doctor and epidemiolgist was credited with identifying the disease known as the Direllian Plague. Kith'Araquia also discovered that Shiarha roots were effective in treating the disease. Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, Doctor Kith'Araquia was wanted by the Empire for supposed terrorist activity. He was known to be a dedicated to and passionate about preserving the rainforests of his homeworld of Kirtania, and he also had a wicked sense of humor. He was also a pacifist, but realized that his people needed to something in order to throw off the Imperial yoke. When a group of Alliance agents arrived on Kirtania to obtain a cure for the Direllian Plague, Kith'Araquia enlisted their help in planning as assault on the local Imperial base. In the aftermath of the battle, Kith'Araquia and his forces collected a huge number of Shiarha roots for use in combatting the Plague. (SWJ1)
Tjulan Kwaad  
this Yuuzhan Vong, a member of Domain Kwaad, served as a Master Shaper during the invasion of the known galaxy. Tjulan Kwaad did not approve of Nen Yim's heretical methods for regenerating the bio-technology of the Yuuzhan Vong, but was forced to accede to the wishes of Supreme Overlord Shimrra in allowing Nen Yim to continue her work. To this end, Tjulan Kwaad agreed to allow Kae Kwaad - who was actually the Supreme Overlord's jester Onimi - to travel to the Baanu Miir to act as Nen Yim's Master. (EVR)

TK-622  
this was the callsign of one of the Imperial stormtroopers who was dispatched to maintain order on the planet Ralltiir, during the months just prior to the Battle of Yavin. Two years earlier, TK-622 saved the life of Commander Akobi, and Akobi showed his gratitude by ensuring that TK-622 got promoted to new positions whenever he was moved. The pair honed their combat skills together, and developed an innate trust of each other's abilities. After his entire squad was ambushed and killed by Ralltiiri rebels, TK-622 questioned the doctrines of the Empire in his next meeting with Akobi. A Sergeant at the time, TK-622 was again forced to put his life on the line when a hidden thermal detonator went off near them. Shortly afterward, Akobi was transferred to a posting on the first Death Star, and TK-622 went with him. Upon arrival, TK-622 discovered a sabotaged RA-7 protocol droid, again saving Akobi's life. His investigation led him to the discovery that the droid's command programming had been altered by an Alliance agent. After another droid claimed the life of Commander Akobi, TK-622 tracked down the saboteur, one of the rebels who fought against the Empire on Ralltiir. As the two struggled, the Alliance launched its attack on the Death Star. As he reaffirmed his own belief in the Empire, TK-622 was killed when the battle station was destroyed in the Battle of Yavin. (SWESL)

TL-118  
known as the StarHammer, this was Subpro's short-range attack fighter, developed during the height of the Galactic Civil War. It measured 35 meters in length, and required a pilot and gunner to operate. Its weaponry included a pair of light laser cannons, a pair of twin laser cannons, a concussion missile launcher, and a bomb bay, making it capable of taking on heavy assault missions. Subpro planned to market the starship to either the Alliance or the Empire, whichever bid the highest. The TL-118 was capable of travelling through hyperspace, but was equipped with a slow Class 3 hyperdrive. The Empire rejected the design, and the Alliance couldn't afford it, so Subpro sold the remaining ships to the highest bidders, which often was local militias or planetary defense fleets. (IA)
TL-1200  
this was one of the TL-series of freighters produced by Suwantek Systems. The spear-shaped TL-1200 measured some fifty-two meters in length, was armed with a pair of turret-mounted laser cannons, and required a crew of three officers and two gunners to operate. It could accommodate up to six passengers in comfort. (TF)
TL-1800  
a Suwantek Systems starship design, the TL-1800 was a 30-meter-long craft which typical of most commercial freighters. It was lightly armed, poorly shielded, and slow. It was sometimes referred to as a "Waddle" by starship captains. Despite its appearance and perception, the TL-1800 was a reliable craft, especially after Suwantek replaced the Portal Delta nav computer with a more reliable Fabritech model. The TL-1800 required a pilot and co-pilot to operate, and could transport up to seven passengers and 110 metric tons of cargo, depending on the interior configuration. An additional 300 metric tons of cargo space could be realized with the addition of cargo pods. The TL-1800 was armed with a pair of laser cannons. (SS)

He assumed command of the fleet after the deaths of Shedao Shai and Deign Lian at Ithor, but was forced to work with Harrar and the priests. Tla agreed with the plan to have the priestess Elan pose as a defector, but the plan's failure led to the death of Elan and the loss of Vergere. When the mission was reviewed with supreme commander Nas Choka, Tla was removed from his command of the invasion fleet and reassigned to the Outer Rim. (HT)

When the mechno-chair of Nute Gunray was captured on Cato Neimoidia, Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi discovered that one of the rear legs appeared to have been adorned with his signature carvings. He was angry and confused when the Jedi arrived on Charros IV to question him about it, then tried to escape when the Jedi linked his work to the Trade Federation and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The Jedi managed to recapture him, and t'laalak-s'lalak-t'th'ak revealed that the mechno-chair had been brought to Charros IV by someone other than Gunray or his cronies. Although t'laalak-s'lalak-t'th'ak didn't know the being's name, he was able to tell the Jedi that the hyperwave transceiver in the mechno-chair had come from Escarte. (LEV)

T'laerean Larn  
this young, Sullustan male discovered that he was sensitive to the Force while growing up on his homeworld of Gelgelar. T'laerean learned that he could enter the mind of another creature, starting with the reeho birds and small primates of the swampy jungles. T'learean had to have physical contact with his companion, but then could place his own consciousness inside the mind of the other creature. T'laerean could then travel a short distance within the companion, and had to return the creature to his sleeping form in order to return to his own body. T'laerean trained under the Wise Man of Kooroo, but was impetuous and young. While melding with a reeho bird, T'laerean learned of a Glarsaur attack on his village. Unfortunately, the reeho was caught by the child Reanyn, who mother planned to kill the bird and use it in a stew. This would have left T'larean's mind adrift. The situation worsened when Reanyn believed T'laerean was dead in his bed, having fallen into a deep sleep while controlling the bird. Although the reeho managed to escape, it was soon captured by a Glarsaur who tried to eat it alive. His consciousness suddenly fled back to his body as the reeho died, but T'laerean had a headache for many days after. (SWJ14)

t'landa Til  
this race of sentients was distantly related to the Hutts, although they had a very different physiology. Native to Nal Hutta, the t'landa Til race resembled the Berrite race, having a stout body supported by four thick legs. However, the t'landa Til were much larger than Berrites, standing about two meters tall at the shoulder. Their heads were attached to their bodies by a short, humped neck, and their legs ended with huge, padded feet. Their skin was thick and oily, and hung from their huge bodies in heavy folds and wrinkles. The t'landa Til also had two thin arms which ended in four delicate fingers, and speciallized glands at their elbows exuded an odorous oil which protected their skin. Their bodies ended in thin, whiplike tails that they carried curled atop their backs. They enjoyed keeping their skin moist by immersing themselves in mudpits, alleviating the burden of carrying their immense bulk on their short legs. They also slept in specially-designed hammocks that support them without the need for a bed. t'landa Tils had two separate hearts and three separate stomachs. (TPS, THG, SHPT)

T'less was one of the few Shamed Ones who lived independently, away from groups like that led by Vuurok I'pan. Like the other Shamed ones, though, T'less believed that the Jedi Knights were not abominations, but saviors of the Shamed Ones and symbols of the new ideology which should be embraced by the Yuuzhan Vong. For this reason, their band remained small, in case they were captured by the Yuuzhan Vong warriors. This ensured that their small cult of Jedi followers would never be fully discovered. (FH1)

Toba  
this Gungan scout made regular trips to the city of Theed, as part of his duties to the Gungan Grand Army. Toba was the son of Neesada Bari and Bullba, and was the bravest of all his siblings. In fact, it was said that Toba hitched a ride on the tail of an Opee Sea Killer as a youth. On several missions, Toba had the opportunity to meet with the students at the Royal House of Learning, and eventually made friends with many students. A curious young Gungan, Toba was in Theed when the Trade Federation invaded the planet Naboo, and was caught in the city. Instead of trying to return to Otoh Gunga, Toba lent his skills and resources to the Naboo Underground. He later fought alongside Jar Jar Binks during the Battle of Naboo. Shortly after the Battle of Naboo, Toba purchased and modifed the B'zabuu-class transport known as the Sea Killer, and helped the Gungans settle the moon of Ohma'Dun. He was later accepted into the Naboo Space Fighter Corps, flying G-1 starfighters in the Iron Cesta Flight.

Tobal Lens  
developed by Renatta Racing Systems, a Tobal lens was an ovall crystal about the size of a human head. The internal matrix of the crystal reflected and refracted light into a powerful beam of swirling colors, providing the energy necessary to power Renatta's needle ships. While not very expensive, Tobal lenses were difficult to locate on the open market, and this lack of replacement parts eventually drove Renatta out of business. The Tobal lens, if not handled carefully by the installer, could blind a being for hours if viewed directly. When properly shaped, installed and calibrated, a Tobal lens could convert heat to light at close to one hundredd percent efficiency, making it a near-perfect energy source to power the photon drives of the needle ship.

Tobler 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, SWRPG)

At first, Toda refused to relinquish control to Mon Julpa, but they agreed to meet and discuss a cease-fire. It was then that the pirate gang of Gir Kybo Ren-Cha attacked Tammuz-an, kidnapping Toda's daughter Gerin in the process.

The Tofs were the sworn enemies of the Nagai, and they eventually conquered the Nagai more than 300 years before the Battle of Bakura. It was the Tofs who broke up the Hiromi victory party on Zeltros and captured the insectoids, shortly after the Battle of Endor. The Tofs had been chasing a group of Nagai, and followed them into the galaxy to Saijo. They later tried to overtake the galaxy after subjugating Zeltros, but were put down by the combined might of the New Republic, the Nagai, and the remnants of the Empire.

He also hoped that service aboard the FarStar would help him achieve his dream of seeing the galaxy before he died. He maintained his own ship, the Muvon, and brought it with him inside the FarStar's hangar bay. Brophar was fond of giving advice, whether it was asked for or not.

Togorian  
a race of bipedal feline aliens from Togoria, the Togorians were distinguished by their long, sinewy limbs and well-muscled bodies. They were equally comfortable moving through a forest or running across an open plain. Their hands and feet were studded with heavy claws, which were retractable on the hands, and which provided evidence of their tree-climbing ancestors. When a Togorian met a friend or potential ally, the claws were retracted into the hands as a sign of peace. They regularly fed on bist and etelo herds, but were the favored prey of the reptilian liphons. The Togorians soon realized that they shared this trait with the mosgoths, and they formed a relationship which provided mutual protection as well as friendship. The Togorian society was matriarchal, with the males and females only seeing each other for a few days each year. The males spent their days wandering the plains and hunting for food, while the females stayed in the cities and tend to their businesses. The Togorians had a limited technology, including a solar technology maintained by the females, although they were fond of high-tech devices. The Togorian society was presided over by the Margrave, a position held by a male of a certain family line. However, the Margrave was rarely the public leader many believed him to be. Instead, the Margrave's closest female relative was chosen to live in the capital of Caross and interact with other governmental leaders. (DFRSB, MIS8)

Togruta  
native to the planet Shili, this humanoid race distinguished by the immense, striped horns - known as montrals - which sprouted from each side of their head. Three draping appendages ringed the lower part of their skulls. The coloration of these lekku evolved as a form of camouflage, confusing any predator which might try to hunt the Togruta. Many beings believed that the Togrutas were venomous, but this was not true. This belief was started when an individual first witnessed a Togruta feeding on a thimiar, which writhed in its death throes as if poisoned. On their homeworld, Torguta lived in dense tribes which had strong community ties. The montrals of the Togruta were hollow, providing the Togruta with a way to gather information about their environment ultrasonically. (TCG1, VD2, SWDB, PJSB)
Togruti  
this was the native language of the Togruta people. It consisted of trills, long vowels sounds, and subtle movements of the Togruta head-tails. (PJSB, UANT)
Tohno  
this beautiful woman was one of the many Jedi Masters who were pressed into duty as field Generals during the Clone Wars. Although she was not much younger than Anakin Skywalker at the time, she was paired with Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi during the assault on Zaadja, some eighteen years after the Battle of Geonosis. It was Master Tohno's part in the mission to infiltrate the Separatist fortress and destroy it, which Obi-Wan and Anakin worked with their clone trooper squadrons to create a diversion. She was chosen for the mission because her studies with her previous Master had centered on architecture and engineering, skills that allowed her to understand the unique buildings of Zaadja and get inside when others could figure out the correct pathways, then set explosives in positions that would bring the entire structure down swiftly. She managed to get inside the fortress, but discovered an entire nest of Geonosians waiting for her. With the Force, she managed to get past them, but was seen by a sentry before she could set the explosives. She ordered the others to remain outside, despite the fact that her success in the mission would mean her own death. Although Anakin tried to rescue her, Tohno convinced that he needed to let her go in order to fulfill this mission. She needed to come to peace with her death on her own terms, not with unnecessary deaths included. Anakin reluctantly cut off his pursuit, and although she was attacked by a squad of Geonosians, Master Tohno was able to set off the explosives she carried. The fortress was destroyed, and the mission was completed successfully, but Anakin continued to struggle the need for so many Jedi to sacrifice themselves to the war. (RFY)

Tojjevvuk  
this rare, albino Wookiee was born around the same time as Chewbacca. In previous generations, an albino Wookiee would have been left in the lower levels of Kashyyyk's forest to be eaten by another predator, since white fur stood out against the forest background of the wroshyr trees. However, Tojjevvuk's father Tvrrdko would not let his son be killed, and Tojjevvuk was brought up with the protection of his family, and grew to maturity. Tojjevvuk threatened Chewbacca, shortly after learning that Chewbacca had been courting Mallatobuck. Tojjevvuk believed that he was more worthy of her, challenged Chewbacca to a fight, even though it broke the rules of honor among the Wookiees. Chewbacca maneuvered Tojjevvuk into the lower levels of the forest, where the albino Wookiee was caught and killed by one of the jungle predators. (C)

a native of the planet Entralla, this crimelord suddenly found himself in possession of the Shard of Alderaan computer program, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. He arranged to hold an auction aboard the Dune Princess, hoping that his friendship with Heater would provide him a measure of protection against Jabba the Hutt. Tok was known for his sabacc parties, although he lost more often than he won. Tok owned Jabba a large sum of credits, and hoped to pay off the debt by selling the Shard of Alderaan. Knowing what the program was, Tok invited members of the Alliance and the Empire to participate in the auction, as well as several independent interests. Unfortunately for Tok, the Dune Princess encountered a huge sandstorm and was grounded. During the resulting confusion, he lost control of the datapad which held the code for the Shard of Alderaan. The computer program was lost,and Tok was eventually executed by Jabba's henchmen. (LAA, SWJ3)
Tok, Hogar

Tok, Shogar  
a native of Brentaal, this man was the theater Commander of the Separatist forces which took control of Brentaal, during the early stages of the Clone Wars. A tall, well-muscled man who kept his white hair long and braided into a thick ponytail, Commander Tok chafed at commanding his forces from a distance. He longed to be at the front lines, but Count Dooku wanted him alive, so that he could continue to rally the people of Brentaal against the Republic's forces. Tok's base of operations was in the prison facility on Brentaal, which the Separatists converted into an easily-defended fortress. A concerted attack by the Jedi Knights seemed doomed from the start, since much of the intelligence used to plan the attack had come from Separatist espionage agents. Jedi Master Shaak Ti, along with Quinlan Vos and a single clone trooper, managed to gain the confidence of three prisoners - Sagoro Autem, Lyshaa, and Ryyk - eventually defeated Tok's forces and liberated the planet. During the fight, Tok and Master Ti fought briefly, before the lightsaber of the wounded Jedi pierced Tok through the chest. Jerrod Maclain was installed as the new governor of Brentaal, replacing Arcel Mosbree who was arrested for his part in opening Brentaal to the Separatists. (SWI70, J2)

Toka  
a primitive race native to the Rafa System, it was thought that the Toka were the descendants of the Sharu race, given that they held so many of the Sharu legends in reverence. The Toka lived in the ancient Sharu buildings on Rafa V, and their society and religion were based on the Sharu legends and histories. Rokur Gepta learned that the Toka, like the humans who inhabited the Rafa System, arrived there from other systems a long time ago. The Toka were believed to have arrived first, and made the first contacts with the Sharu. This contact was broken when the Sharu mysteriously disappeared, and the Toka were badly affected ever since. This disappearance of the Sharu supposedly accounted for the Toka's lack of intelligence and inability to advance technologically, and thus the Toka were dubbed the Broken People. Since the disappearance of the Sharu, the Toka became fairly simple-minded, and existed only to tend the life-orchards of the Rafa System, growing the beautiful and potent life-crystals. Through Osuna Whett, Gepta also learned that the Toka themselves were descended from human stock, withered with apparent age due to their close interaction with the life-crystals. All of this knowledge that was held by Gepta, of course, was proven mere legend when Lando Calrissian and Mohs discover the resting place of the Mindharp on Rafa V. It was then revealed that the Toka were, in actuality, the Sharu themselves. When the Sharu civilization was at its height, the Sharu were terrified by an unknown event. This caused them to begin hiding all record of themselves and their civilization in the huge computer banks found throughout the Rafa System. These computers were disguised as simple buildings. The Sharu also hid themselves from prying eyes by locking away all their knowledge in these computer systems. They developed the life-crystals as a way to continualy suck the knowledge and intelligence from succeeding generations, perpetuating the illusion of the ignorant Toka. A single Toka from each generation was allowed to maintain some of the ancient knowledge. This Toka, the High Singer, was charged with keeping the legends of the Key and the Mindharp alive until the Bearer and the Emissary returned to the Rafa System. This event would signal to the Mindharp that the threat to the Sharu had passed, and they could emerge from their disguise as the Toka and re-establish themselves. After the Mindharp was activated by Duttes Mer, the Rafa System underwent a huge transformation. The life-orchards were destroyed, and the Toka were restored to their former civilization. It was then discovered that the Toka were most likely descended from human stock. (LCM)

This substance was extremely slippery, and could make any surface nearly frictionless. When a pursuer ran over the slippery spot, they were thrown off-balance and often landed face-first on the ground, at which point the Yuuzhan Vong could disable them. Tokhlor tallow was also corrosive, and could eat through body armor and other strong surfaces if not washed away. (GMR8)

When thrown to the ground, a tokhlor exploded in a goopy mess, coating the ground with a film of slime known as tokhlor tallow. This substance was extremely slippery, and could make any surface nearly frictionless. When a pursuer ran over the slippery spot, they were thrown off-balance and often landed face-first on the ground, at which point the Yuuzhan Vong could disable them. (GMR8)
Tokmia  
this was one of the planets, in addition to Allyuen and Hoth, singled out by Darth Vader as possible hiding places for the Alliance in the Anoat Sector.

The average surface temperature on Tol Ado was well over 400 degrees Celsuis, and there was little natural atmosphere. The surface of the planet was formed of black coal, and the meager atmosphere was filled with swirling clouds of black coal dust. From space, Tol Ado appeared to suck up all the light around it, like a swirling black ball. Parnell established a six-billion-cell prison facility on the planet, recognizing that the bleak landscape would only help to strangle the hopes of a prisoner. Parnell installed 124 sensor satellites in orbit around the planet, in order to maintain security on the planet. (JH)

Tol Sivron  
more bureaucrat that scientist, Tol Svron was the chief scientist at the Maw Installation. Impatient, petty, uncreative, and a stifling taskmaster, he was the leader of the creation of the first Death Star concept. He is a member of the Twi'lek race, and was extremly threatened by true talent. Tol Sivron was a member of his community's head clan, until one of the other members was killed in an accident. The remaining four members, including Sivron, were exiled to the Ryloth wastes. Tol Sivron killed the other three Twi'Leks during their first night of exile, and was trying to make it to civilization when he discovered Wilhuff Tarkin setting up an Imperial refueling station on the planet. Tarkin recognized Sivron's potential from the story he told, and took Sivron under his wing. Sivron proved himself an excellent manager, and was promoted to his position as Chief Administrator of the Maw Installation by the newly-promoted Grand Moff Tarkin. He is extremely obsessed with following Imperial doctrine to the letter. Tol Sivron is killed when the prototype Death Star he has commandeered is sucked into the black holes of the Maw and destroyed. Note that Star Wars: Epsiode II - Attack of the Clones indicates that the Death Star was first conceived by the Geonosians and Count Dooku, so Tol Sivron's role in its development may be rendered apocryphal.

this range of mountains, located on the planet Velmor, was riddled with caves and crevices. During the height of the New Order, rebels on the planet who resisted the Empire's presence on Velmor used the caves as hiding places.

Tolea Biqua  
this space station was erected in the atmosphere of the planet Genarius, and served as the base of operations for a gas and energy mining corporation. Tolea Biqua was unique among Genarius' floating cities in that its shielding system absorbed the radiation carried up by the storms which raged across Genarius, using the radiation as a source of power to maintain the station. From a distance, Tolea Biqua is a beautiful jewel hanging in the clouds of Genarius. However, upon closer investigation, it appears that the city was cobbled together from bits and pieces of every other floating city ever erected in the galaxy. The city was originally build on the orders of Riboga the Hutt, and evolved to become an example of bad taste and excess. (LFC)
Tolen, Andi  
as a young child, this woman was abandoned by her parents on Tatooine. She learned to survive on her own, and claimed to have killed her first man at the age of twelve. Her life became a series of "kill or be killed" episodes, which eventually led her to the bounty hunting profession. She was later hired by Herogga the Hutt, who used her as a messenger and errand girl and rewarded her richly. After several years working for Herogga, Andi set out on her own, but she maintained her loyalty to Herogga and often worked for him as a freelance hunter. She was skilled in tracking her quarry through spaceports as well as wilderness areas, and her short stature and "cute" appearance often disarmed her targets. (WOTC)

It infected a great number of worlds some twenty-five years before the Battle of Naboo, before the scientists and medical personnel of the Old Republic discovered a vaccine. Most who contracted the virus could be cured by the vaccine. It was later discovered that the planet Kegan had suffered an outbreak of the Toli-X virus, but because of their isolationist government, had never learned of the vaccine. A great many Keganites died because of their adherence to the General Good. (FFT)

Tolokai  
this stoic Gotal served as one of Mon Mothma's aides during the early years of the New Republic. Like all Gotals, Tolokai's sensitive horns allowed him to receive vibrations and eminations from those around him. This allowed him to anticipate any attacks which might be aimed at Mon Mothma. During a short break from his official duties, Tolokai was targeted by agents of Warlord Zsinj, who brainwashed him into believing Mon Mothma was an enemy as part of Project Funeral. The desire to kill her was activated by a seemingly inane phrase, and Tolokai tried to kill her with a hidden vibroblade. However, one of her other aides, Malan Tugrina, took the blade in his chest, diverting Tolokai's attack long enough for Mon Mothma to call for a security detail. Then Malan used the last of his strength to tackle Tolokai, and they tumbled down a flight of stairs. Malan died from loss of blood, while Tolokai was killed when his neck snapped in the fall. (SOC)

Tols Vengra  
this cyborged Jenet worked for Opun Mcgrrrr. He received his Aj^6 implant as a youth, in an effort to augment his already impressive memory. Tols hoped to become a high-ranking government official, but the surgery which connected the implant to his brain wiped out much of his personality and pride, and he decided to became an Imperial official. His attempts to join the Empire were thwarted by the fact that he wasn't human, and Tols was even threatened with slavery twice before he met up with Mcgrrrr. Using his enhanced brain, Tols went to work on Mcgrrrr's businesses, helping the Corellian to maximize his profits. Tols began skimming a portion of Mcgrrrr's profits for himself, secreting them away in hopes of being able to return to Garban with a small fortune.

Tolut himself was Force-sensitive, but lacked any formal training. Nevertheless, he could manipulate objects with the Force, and claimed that the Jedi were sent to Ansion to use their "magic" against the backwater natives. Luckily for the Jedi, Tolut was openminded enough to listen to them, especially after Luminara Unduli deftly maneuvered a pitcher of cold water over his head and dumped it on him. He was among the nine members of the Unity to vote in favor of Ansion remaining with the Old Republic. (APS)

Tomcat  
this youth was a native of Somov Rit, shortly before the Battle of Ruusan. His given name was Darovit, but he kept it secret like the other natives of the planet. Like his cousin Bug, Tomcat displayed a strong connection to the Force, which attracted the Jedi scout Torr Snapit. While Tomcat and Bug were chosen to travel to Ruusan and augment the forces of the Jedi Knights, Tomcat's sister Rain was to be left behind. Tomcat used his own skills in the Force to make it appear that Rain could touch it, and she was allowed to travel with them. However, upon reaching Ruusan, their ship was shot down and Rain was lost in the crash. Tomcat and Bug were rescued by Snapit, but they were set upon by a group of Sith warriors. Snapit sacrificed himself to allow the boys to escape, but Tomcat remained behind to steal Snapit's lightsaber. Later, Tomcat grew impatient with the Jedi, wishing to join the battle instead of doing menial duties and learning patience. He joined Lord Charny's forces, and gleefully killed a Sith in his first battle, but this only drew Tomcat closer to the Dark Side of the Force. When the Jedi appeared powerless to stop the Sith, Tomcat embraced the Dark Side fully. He joined Githany and the Sith, and was the being responsible for murdering Lord Charny. He chose to abandon the name Tomcat and use his true name, Darovit. Just before Lord Kaan unleashed the thought bomb, Tomcat and Bug faced each other in battle. Bug was injured by Githany, as she tried to collect Tomcat and escape before the bomb was activated. Before they could escape, Bug was killed by a falling stone and Githany fell into a deep chasm. Tomcat managed to survive the thought bomb, and wandered the blasted surface of Ruusan with two bouncers as companions, to mature by himself. (JVS)

this Imperial diplomat was, at one time, in command of a "re-education center," which specialized in the torture of those individuals suspected of sympathizing with the Alliance. He carried a small medkit with him at all times, ostensibly to help counteract the effects of aging. In reality, the kit contained all the necessary chemical compounds to create a variety of lethal poisons.

this was the nickname Lara Notsil used for her astromech droid. The droid, like the X-Wing it flew in, were originally owned by Atton Repness, but were given to Lara after she exposed Repness' blackmail starfighter sales ring. The droid's name means "Little Atton" in the dialect of her hometown, New Oldtown, on Aldivy. When Lara fled the Wraiths, after Garik Loran revealed that she was really Gara Petothel, Tonin went with her to the Iron Fist, where she volunteered her services to Warlord Zsinj. In reality, she planned to take down Zsinj any way she could. To that end, she programmed Tonin to surreptitiously take control of the Super-class Star Destroyer's MSE-6 messenger droids. Tonin did so discreetly at first, but became bolder when none of the smaller droids were discovered missing. Tonin reprogrammed them for terrorist duties, including the sabotaging of the warship's engines, computers and shields. The effort nearly worked on its own, and was highly successful when it was combined with the firepower of the New Republic's warships at Selaggis Six. However, Zsinj managed to escape using the Second Death as a decoy. Lara and Tonin also escaped, fleeing to the planet Corellia to lay low. (IF, SOC)

Tookarti was also a master at obtaining information, and helped Vos recruit some of the best spies and thieves available on The Wheel. Unknown to Vos, however, Tookarti was actually an agent of Count Dooku, and had devised the scheme which allowed a datadisk containing information on a Separatist attack on Kamino to fall into Zenex's hands. This ensured that the Separatists would have the upper hand during the battle for Kamino, even as the Old Republic believed it had the advantage. Although these plans failed to result in a Separatist victory at Kamino, Tookarti continued to work for Count Dooku, primarily out of fear for his life. His double-agent status was compromised shortly afterward, when Tookarti tried to sell information to the Jedi Council that Korto Vos had become a double agent himself. Because this nearly cost Korto his life, Korto returned to confront Tookarti. When the Charda-Fan couldn't reconcile his actions, Korto - who was actually Quinlan Vos, on a deep-cover mission for the Jedi - decided to eliminate any further treachery. As Tookarti pulled out a blaster, Korto beheaded him with his lightsaber. (RS, RDB)
Tooke  
this small, hopping rodent was bipedal in stature, and was native to the planet Naboo. They had short tails and large eyes, and could flip themselves over backwards in order to escape an attacker. They breed quite rapidly, and offspring were independent and fertile at just two weeks of age. The whiskers of the tooke were prized by the Gungans for use in making paint brushes. (GF, WSW)
Tooke-Trap Plant  
native to the planet Naboo, this carnivorous plant was named because it preferred to feed on the flesh of the tooke. The fragrance of the tooke trap plant resembled the mating hormones of the tooke, making the plant irresistable to the tiny rodents. (GF, WSW)

this Outer Rim planet is a barren, windswept world locked in perpetual winter. An ancient Jedi Master made Toola his home during the years just prior to Palpatine's Jedi purge. He was a curator of records on Coruscant, and was helping the Old Republic just before Palpatine's rise to power. The Jedi Master, fleeing Palpatine's wrath, took his archives with him to Toola, but he was hunted down and killed, and the records destroyed. The planet Toola is home to the Whiphids, as well as to the snow demons. Its day lasts 23 standard hours, and the year on Toola lasts 423 local days. (GG4, CPL, SWJ10)

Toom Clan  
based in an underground cavern on the Videnda Sector world of Dorvalla, this gang of cutthroat mercenaries was active in the Outer Rim during the last decades of the Old Republic. The Toom gang started out with legitmate goals, primarily as deep-space rescue and salvage operators. Over time, they shed their humanitarian guises and focused on making money any way possible. Their services were available to any being who could pay them, and they lacked any form of scruples which might have hindered their ability to take on even the most despicable work. Their motto was simple: "Pay us enough and we'll make worlds collide." The Tooms, led by the Weequay Nort Toom, used an early version of the Interdictor-class cruiser to drag spaceships from hyperspace. The Tooms established a staging base on the planet Riome, in order to help throw off any pursuit. The Tooms were hired by Patch Bruit and the Lommite Limited mining corporation to destroy the operations of InterGalactic Ores on Dorvalla, but Darth Maul used a subtle misdirection to lead the Tooms into bringing down both corporations at the same time. In this way, Dorvalla was opened up to the Trade Federation. Despite the plan's success to Darth Sidious, the Toom Clan was destroyed on Riome when the combined forces of Lommite Limited and InterGalactic Ores struck back in revenge for being double-crossed. (DMS)

She was known in certain circles as one of the Old Republic's most corrupt Senators during the years leading up to Palpatine's assumption of the role of Grand Chancellor. A large, heavy-set alien with white and gray fur and red eyes, she became exceedingly wealthy by exploiting the many loopholes of the Republic's laws. Toonbuck allied herself with Orn Free Taa and Passel Argente in their opposition of Chancellor Valorum, in the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. With the growing movement toward secession that permiated the Senate in the years prior to the Clone Wars, Senator Toora convinced Sy Myrth to secede from the Republic, on the heels of the secession of the planet Ando. Her support of secession was hinted at by many followers of the Senate, who noted that Senator Toora was absent from the Senate for more than a month prior to Sy Myrth's secession. She was later observed by Obi-Wan Kenobi on the planet Geonosis, during the meetings that cemented Count Dooku's relationships to the Commerce Guilds, the Trade Federation, the Techno Union, and the InterGalactic Banking Clans. Note that this Senator is described as Tonbuck Toora in the Star Wars Episode I Insider's Guide. (IG1, OWS, COD, SWDB, SWI69)

Toong  
this is a species of squat, thin-limbed aliens from the planet Toong'L, located near the Tund System. Their bodies are short in stature and covered with green skin. They have no neck or shoulders, as most humanoids do, and their faces seem to make up their entire torso. When Old Republic scouts first made contact with the Toong race, they were unable to comprehend the visitors from the stars, and their civilization was thrown into turmoil. International wars erupted, much to the dismay of the scouts, who had been led to believe the Toongs were peaceful. After many weeks, the Republic was able to re-establish contact with the Toongs, realizing that the sudden appearance of aliens triggered a fight-or-flight instinct in the Toong people. Eventually, the Toongs agreed to join the galactic community, after realizing that alien races weren't something to fear. The Toongs quickly adopted the technology of the Republic, and began to colonize nearby worlds. Modern Toongs were forced to flee Toong'L when an environmental disaster left the planet uninhabitable, just before the Battle of Naboo. They fled to Tund, but were again forced to relocate when Rokur Gepta destroyed that planet. (SW1, IG1, IWE1, SWDB, SWI53, UANT)

However, when a pair of comets struck the planet's surface, the resulting environmental disaster wiped out virtually every square inch of habitable surface area on the planet. The surviving Toongs were forced to flee to the nearby world of Tund. Decades later, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, the alien invaders captured Toong'L and installed a yammosk there. This gave the Yuuzhan Vong a base of operations from which to launch raids on New Republic outposts in the sector. (IWE1, SWI53, NEGC, UF)
Toong'L Security Systems  
this manufacturer of security droids and other systems was a noted competitor of Cestus Cybernetics during the Old Republic. When the X'Ting inquired about a security system for the protection of several royal egss - to be hidden after the X'Ting believed that Cestus Cybernetics was behind the Great Plague - Toong'L Security Systems gladly took on the project. Their system was in intricate combination of guardian worms and scent-based receptors that challenged a being with several layers of verification of their intent. The mutated worms that were brought to Ord Cestus were vicious and carnivorous, but could be defeated by cunning warriors. Because of the scent-based traps that followed, only an X'Ting could manage to reach the deepest levels. Once inside the main chamber, am X'Ting was forced to answer three questions. Whether or not the X'Ting answered correctly, the system declared that the answers were wrong, and forced the X'Ting face their own execution. In this way, the system could determine - from the individual's scents - whether or not they had penetrated the system for their own prestige, or for the better good of the X'Ting people. While the system proved to be exceptionally secure, the worms that were used to guard the forward sections attacked the X'Ting population that chose to live underground after the Great Plague. They stumbled into the worms' chamber and were set upon, and their were no survivors. To make matters worse, Toong'L Security Systems was destroyed when the planet was hit by a comet, eliminating all knowledge of the ways to bypass the security systems. Eventually, it was Jesson Di Blinth who penetrated the system, along with help from Obi-Wan Kenobi, and recovered the eggs. (HIV)

He was given the nickname Tooth by Joram Kithe, who was stranded on the planet with the platoon's survivors after the Separatist sprang a trap. The nickname, given to help Joram communicate with the troopers, was based on the fact that the clone trooper had lost a tooth during a training exercise. Tooth was killed shortly afterward, when he decided to take on the suicide mission of drawing Separatist starfighters away from Tur Lorkin. This allowed the rest of the platoon to enter the settlement, destroy the actual missile production facility, and escape the planet. It was later revealed to Joram that Tooth and his platoon-mates were actually enhanced clones, having been given additional self-reliance and initiative during their development. These enhanced troops were dispatched with observers like Joram, in order to ensure the production of clone troopers was continued. (SWI65)

Unfortunately, Toprawa had been placed under Imperial blockade, and they were attacked by the Devastator. They escaped back to hyperspace, but were tracked by the Devastator to Tatooine. The planet itself was devastated by the Empire, in retribution for its assistance to the Alliance. The planet was martially reduced to a pre-industrial state, and the inhabitants were subjected to all sorts of Imperial degradation. The Alliance continued to work toward freeing the planet's inhabitants, but the Imperial presence was often too strong.

However, he met his greatest challenge in the person of Pilester Binalie's young son, Corf, who revered Torles as an all-powerful, infallible Jedi. This image was shattered when the Separatists tried to take control of Spaarti Creations for their own use. Torles worked tirelessly with Commander Roshton and Kinman Doriana, trying to free the planet from Separatist control. In the end, however, even Master Torles' most ingenious plans were for naught. Just after Troles liberated Roshton and his men, a Republic gunship crashed into the main Sparti Creations facility, purposely killing its crew so that the facility would not fall into the hands of the Separatists. When it was later learned that the Jedi Knights had ordered the suicide mission, Torles found himself exiled from Cartao and the Binalie family. Unknown to Torles, however, was the fact that the gunship had actually been piloted remotely, by an agent working for Darth Sidious. By implicating the Jedi in the destruction of Spaarti Creations, Sidious created a groundswell of hatred toward the Jedi Knights. Torles, without this information, left Cartao to return to Coruscant, hoping to identify the Jedi who ordered the strike which caused so much damage. (SWI68, SWI70)

this Imperial Governor controlled the planet Corulag in the years following the Battle of Yavin. Torlock had been a staunch supporter of the Tarkin Doctrine, having been one of the first to join Tarkin's cadre. He believed he was to be the target of an Alliance assassination attempt, and had been replaced by a human replica droid along with his daughter, Frija. It was at this time that he learned of his real daughter's relationship with his closest advisor, Admiral Droon, and learned that they had portrayed him as a traitor to their superiors. The real Torlock fled Corulag only after activated the human replica droids. He was never heard from again. The droid Torlock was later captured by Droon's forces and imprisoned, but not before Droon and Darth Vader set in motion a plan to execute Torlock and blame the assassination on the Alliance. Droon also attempted to eliminate the droid Frija, but she was saved from destruction by Jix, who had been sent to Corulag by Vader to execute Torlock. Jix then found and rescued the droid Torlock, and took them to Coruscant along with Droon. Once there, Jix allowed them to flee Coruscant and the Empire, but they were forced to hide out on Hoth. When Luke Skywalker crashed on the planet after returning from Aridus, he encounter the droid Torlock and Frija. The yearsof hiding weren't kind to the droid Torlock, and its feelings for both the Empire and the Alliance deteriorated into contempt and loathing of both sides of the conflict. Torlock's droid believed Luke would be their undoing, and tried to kill him. Instead, his blast hit his daughter, the droid Frija, and killed her. Luke retaliated by slicing the droid Torlock in two with his lightsaber. Luke, in term, returned to the Alliance with the location of the planet Hoth. (SST, CSW)
Torlock, Frija  
this daughter of Imperial Governor Torlock was secretly plotting with Torlock's most trusted advisor, Admiral Droon, to execute her father and take control of the planet Corulag. Torlock suspected that the Alliance was a great threat, and had human replica droids created of himself and Frija. When Torlock learned that Frija and Droon had told Darth Vader that he was a traitor to the Empire, Torlock fled Corulag and activated the droids. The droid Torlock was captured by Droon and Frija and imprisoned, but their plan to execute Torlock was still in motion. Vader had sent Jix to execute Torlock, but he instead encountered the droid Frija. She was about to be destroyed by Droon's agents, but Jix rescued her and learned of the plots. Jix was eventually captured by Droon, but not before meeting the droid Torlock. Droon and Frija attempted to remove both of them by feeding them to the dragon snakes that live in the caves of Corulag, but they escaped and returned to confront Droon. In the midst of the struggle, Droon shot and killed the real Frija before being captured by Jix. Jix then took Droon and the two human replica droids to Coruscant. He allowed the droids to take a shuttle and flee Coruscant, and they decided to hide out on Hoth. The droid Frija encountered Luke Skywalker when he was forced to land on the planet shortly after leaving the planet Aridus. The droid Torlock tried to kill Luke, but Frija's droid intervened, taking a blaster bolt meant for Luke. Frija was mortally wounded. Luke retailiated, slicing the father in two with his lightsaber. It was then that Luke discovered she and her father were droids. The droid Frija was unable to remain active as a result of the damage from the blaster bolt, and expired before Luke could save her. Luke then returned to the Alliance with the location of the planet. (CSW, SST)

Torpedo Sphere  
manufactured by Loronar, the torpedo sphere was a seige platform designed to destroy planetary defense systems. It was considered by many historians to have been the forerunner to the Death Star space station. It had thousands of dedicated energy receptors positioned on its surface, which were used to analyze shield emissions and discover weak points. When it discovered holes in a planet's shields, the 1,900-meter ship would use some or all of its 500 proton torpedo launchers (arranged on its lower hemisphere) to punch a hole in a planet's protective shielding. If they were programmed correctly (which is not an easy feat, and it takes hundreds of technicians to operate them all), the torpedoes will briefly open a section of the planet's shield to turbolaser bombardment. The torpedo sphere is equipped with 10 turbolaser batteries for just this purpose. The torpedo sphere is manned by a crew of 63,275, and can transport up to 8,540 troops. (ISB)

They supported the Republic's defense of Dantooine from Yuuzhan Vong invasion, but were ultimately destroyed in the battle. (DTO, NJOSB)
Toughcatch  
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)
Toukfin  
this was a large fish that was harvested for its meat. (EOV, GMR8)
Touno  
this Imperial Governor controlled the southern district of the planet Svivren during the last years of the New Order. He was an overweight, balding man with a short temper, although he had absolutely no control over his troops. Most of the Imperials working under him despised him and his lack of leadership. (MJEH)
Tount, Serdif  
this corpulent man was a native of Coruscant, and served the Empire as the governor of Lambda Sector during the height of the New Order. He ruled from a seat in the Rintonne System, with the support of Moff Lankin, and maintained an iron-fisted control. While he wasn't afraid to use them, Tount considered bounty hunters to be semi-intelligent, incorrigible beasts. (WBC, GG10)
Tour  
this was one of the most common names given to female Corellians. (GMR9)
Tour Droid  
any automaton that can pilot a tourist ship or leader a tourist expedtion. They are often created to mimic the basic physiology of the races they work with, in order to blend in better. (DK)
Tourist Guild  
this body governed the tourism which fueled the economy of the planet Spira. By agreement with the Empire, the Tourist Guild also controlled the planet's day-to-day operations, although the Guild paid its taxes and supported the Empire. (SWJ1)
Tourou  
this Ferroan male was one of the many who supported Senshi and his opposition of the Magister, Jabitha, during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. It was Tourou who suggested that Jacen Solo and Saba Sebatyne both be brought to Senshi, along with Danni Quee and the Magister, despite the arguments of his peers. (FH3)

Towani, Catarine  
Catarine was married to Jeremitt Towani, and they had two children, Mace and Cindel. Their shuttle crashed on the forest moon Endor following a systems failure, and they were forced to fend for themselves. Catarine and Jeremitt were captured by the giant Gorax and held prisoner until their children, along with help from the Ewoks, were able to rescue them. Unfortunately, she was killed when the Marauders from Endor's rocky wastes attacked their encampment. Catarine was portrayed by Fionnula Flanagan in The Ewok Adventure. (EA)
Towani, Cindel  
Cindel was the younger of the two Towani children, and the four-year-old daughter of Catarine and Jeremitt. When their shuttle crashed on Endor, Cindel and her brother, Mace, were separated from their parents. They were taken in by Wicket and his Ewok family, who helped them rescue Cindel's parents from the Gorax. Following the death of her other family members at the hands of the Marauders, Cindel and Wicket were taken in by Noa Briqualon, who helped her defeat the Marauders. She lived with Noa for several years, until the Battle of Endor occured. By this time, Cindel had grown into a young woman, and was eager to make her own way in the galaxy. She decide to join the efforts of the fledgling New Republic, after witnessing first-hand the construction and destruction of the second Death Star. She went into journalism after graduating from college, and became one of the primary founders and contributors to The Life Monitor news service. In this role, Cindel was given access to the recorded testimony of Plat Mallar by Hiram Drayson, which allowed her to leak the story of the Yevethan attack on Polneye. The story's publication swayed the government to adopt a more sympathetic stance to the refugees of the Black Fleet Crisis. Cindel was portrayed by Aubree Miller in The Caravan of Courage and The Battle for Endor. (EA, BFE, TT, SWDB)
Towani, Jeremitt  
Jeremitt was married to Catarine Towani, and they had two children, Mace and Cindel. Their shuttle crashed on the forest moon Endor following a systems failure, and they were forced to fend for themselves. Jeremitt and Catarine were captured by the giant Gorax and held prisoner until their children, along with help from the Ewoks, were able to rescue them. Unfortunately, he was killed when the Marauders from Endor's rocky wastes attacked their encampment. Jeremitt was portrayed by Guy Boyd in The Ewok Adventure, and by Paul Gleason in Ewoks: The Battle for Endor. (EA, BFE)
Towani, Mace  
Mace was the older of the two Towani children, and the teen-aged son of Catarine and Jeremitt. When their shuttle crashed on Endor, Mace and his sister, Cindel, were separated from their parents. He was quick to anger, and was fiercely protective of his sister. They were taken in by Wicket and his Ewok family, who helped them rescue Mace's parents from the Gorax. Unfortunately, when the Marauders attacked their encampment several months later, Mace was killed along with his parents. Mace was portrayed by Eric Walker in The Caravan of Courage and The Battle for Endor. (EA, BFE, SWDB)
Tower  
this modified YT-1300 transport was owned and operated by Rycar Ryjerd. It was armed with a pair of fire-linked laser cannons and two ion cannons. (SSR)
Tower Droid  
this unusual automaton was developed by Tig Fromm,and served as a mobile weapons platform. It moved about on six pneumatic tires, which were puncture-resistant and provided a measure of shock absorption. Atop the engine-housing base, the tower droid was a cylindrical tower which housed the weapons, which included four laser cannons and a repulsor-ball launcher. It was rumored that more thn 430 of these automatons were produced for deployment on Ingo, but it was unknown how many survived the break-up of the Fromm organization by Boba Fett. (EGD)
Tower of Law  
this was the primary governmental building found on the planet Bimmisaari during the early years of the New Republic. Standing just a couple of stories over a open-air market, the Tower of Law was dominated by large rooms that were decorated by wonderful tapestries. The Tower was erected near the marketplace many centuries before the Battle of Yavin, since the marketplace served as a crossroads for many Bimm societies. Although the marketplace itself changed over the years, the Tower of Law remained as a symbol of Bimm government. (HTTE)
Tower Ridge  
this rocky outcropping, on the outskirts of Mos Eisley, on Tatooine, was the home of Slag Flats. (TM)
Tower, Griggor  
this Imperial Admiral was placed in command of the garrison on Gamandar, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Distinguished by his rakish goatee and a reddish, cybernetic eye that replaced his lost left eye, Tower ruled Gamandar with an iron fist. He quickly subjugated the population, and extracted much of the planet's natural resources in just a few years, while acting on plans that were masterminded by Darth Vader himself. Shortly before the Battle of Endor, Tower tried to assassinate Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa on Iskalon, thanks to a tip from Kendle. Shortly afterward, Tower was approached by Lando Calrissian, who disguised himself and used the alias of Barpotomous Drebble. "Drebble" wanted to settle a score with Tay Vanis, and Tower was willing to support his mission of revenge. However, unknown to Lando, Admiral Tower knew that he was acting the part of Drebble, and only agreed to work with "Drebble" to ensure the capture of more Alliance agents. Unfortunately for Admiral Tower, however, the droid K3PX was reporting on his activities to Lord Vader. It relayed information on the use of a missile to destroy the city of Pavillion, which was deemed excessive use of force by the Dark Lord. Vader personally traveled to Gamandar to arrest and execute Tower for his actions. (MC75, MC76, GMR1)
Towers of Pantolomin  
this profitable tourist resort is owned by Galaxy Tours. (CSA)
Towith, Rhain  
this Imperial Moff was placed in charge of the Kadok Regions, during the height of the New Order. He found himself at a loss as to how he could bring the Bitthaevrians, and especially the m'Yalfor'ac Order, under Imperial control. (AIR)
Tow-motor  
this was the generic term used to describe any repulsorlift engine that was designed to carry a load of cargo behind it. Tow-motors were given simply instructions by an operator, but were otherwise automated. Little more than the engine itself and a set of connection points, the tow-motor was attached to a flatbed or cargo bin, which it dragged along behind it. (HSL)
Towon  
this fictional Rodian clan was the antagonist of the renowned drama, Kinzic. The clan was utterly destroyed when Kinzic set off a thermal detonator in the midst of Towon celebration. (PSG)
Tow-raft  
developed on the planet Dellalt, tow-rafts were simply flat-bed ferries that were dragged across the surface of the water by the Swimming People of Dellalt. (HSL)
Tox  
meaning "quick-witted", this was one of the most common names among Rodian males. These names generally described characteristics of historical individuals, and different Rodian clans used up to three names to describe an individual. (GCG)
Tox Don  
this male Rodian served as an aide to Senator Onaconda Farr, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. (OWS)
Toxico  
this was the one of the largest suppliers of industrial-use chemicals on the planet Coruscant, during the last years of the Old Republic. Many of the products Toxico produced were used to exterminate the wide variety of vermin found in the underworld of Galactic City. (HNN5)
Toxis Metals  
this mining and extraction corporation was based on the planet Af'El, where it operated a number of mines. Note - is this the same as Hctaqsas Metals? (SWJ10)
Toxus Li  
this spike-haired humanoid was wanted for several crimes some six years after the Battle of Endor. Boba Fett captured him, although he only brought back the head to collect his bounty. (BF)
Toy Dampner  
this blue-skinned, avian being was considered one of the Outer Rim Territories' best podracer pilots, around the time that Anakin Skywalker won the Boonta Eve Classic. (RAC)
Toydaria  
this swamp-covered planet was located in Hutt Space, within the Mid Rim, and was the homeworld of the Toydarian race. Its surface was composed of nutrient-rich muck, which pooled and puddled into lakes and ponds. The closest thing to landmasses found on the planet were thick mats of algae which floated on top of the swamps. (IG1, IWE1, WOTC)
Toydarian  
this was a race of small, winged humanoids with stout bodies and beaklike noses which was native to the planet Toydaria. Their skin was usually blue-green to pink on the dorsal side and cream-colored on the ventral side, and their snouts are studded with short, thick tusks. Like the Hutts, Toydarians are immune to the effects of the Force due to the unusual compostion of their brain. Despite their heavy-set appearance, the Toydarian's stomach and bodily tissues were filled with gases which made them more bouyant. This allowed them to remain in the air while their wings beat rapidly, about ten times a second. The average Toydarian could walk on their thin legs, but spent more time flying in order to stay out of the reach of the land-based predators found on their homeworld of Toydaria. As a people, Toydarians were known for their shrewd business sense. This manifested itself as greed in lesser individuals, while more legitimate Toydarians were loyal and proud of their accomplishments. (SW1, IG1, WOTC)
Toydarian Print  
this was a slang term used during the last years of the Old Republic to describe the "fine print" - all the information on the obscure terms and conditions, often buried in a document or written in small fonts - in a contract or document. (YDR)
To-yel  
this Gotal found a home on the planet Narg where he could escape the constant buzz of electromagnetic radiation found on other worlds. He was quite happy on Narg, which made him something of a rarity among the non-human population there. To-yel was unable to master the technique of blocking out the electromagnetic emissions from other lifeforms, and got severe headaches in populated areas. To-yel frequented the Free Access Grill during the Imperial occupation of Narg, where he spent most of his time carving small wooden figures. He was known to be a cheerful and friendly patron. (TA)
Toz  
this grain was grown on the planet Merisee, and was the base for the brewed beverage Utoz. (PG3)

this live-organism transport container was produced by Kolocast Consumer Goods, and was designed to transport pets during interstellar journeys. (GFT)
T'Ples  
known as Harrowmere, or the Lake of Trials, this was the largest ocean found on the planet Goroth Prime. (GSE)
TR-14a Land Cruiser  
developed and manufactured by Mekuun, this personal speeder was designed for affluent beings who wanted to travel in style. Built to resemble anceint wheeled carriages, the TR-14a was an ornate vehicle that had to be custom-ordered. They could be decorated with any number of features, including family crests, scrollwork, and luxurious upholstery. The frame of each TR-14a was custom-made to its owner's specifications, although the basic design had a central passenger compartment set behind two main engines. Repulsorlifts were located in two small outriggers, and an open-air seating area was located at the rear. The TR-14a also had room for up to eight passengers and 200 kilograms of cargo. (AEG)
TR-62  
this was the model number of BlasTech's auto-cushioning tripod, which was used to support the BlasTech E-Web repeating blaster. (EGW)
TR-889  
this was Major Tierce's stormtrooper ID during the time he served under Grand Admiral Thrawn aboard the Chimaera. (SOP)
T'ra Saa  
this Jedi Master was the watchman of the planetary sector which contained the twin planets of Kiffex and Kiffu, during the years surrounding the Battle of Naboo. A tall, female Neti, T'ra Saa often moved about in humanoid form, with yellow skin and a collection of thick tendrils atop her head in the place of hair. She lacked a prominent nose, instead having a pair of small flaps in between her eyes. It was T'ra Saa who first discovered the resurgence of Dark Side energy that eminated from Volfe Karkko, after the Anzati was released from his stasis field by Aayla Secura. When Master T'ra Saa arrived at Kiffex to investigate, she was shot down by the Guardians of Kiffu and stranded on the planet. She eventually met up with Quinlan Vos and the two Jedi Masters, Tholme and Zao, and their combined strength helped them defeat the Anzati Sith magician. During the Clone Wars, she was one of the many Jedi Masters who reluctantly assumed the rank of General for the Old Republic, and saw action on Devaron and Geonosis during this time. Some seventeen months after the Battle of Geonosis, Master Saa was badly wounded on Null, when the Republic's forces were attacked by bounty hunters from the Crimson Nova chapter. In order to survive, she pulled a stand of trees down atop their position, hoping that Jedi Master Mace Windu would eventually find them. During the fight, however, Nazzer managed to recover her lightsaber, in order to claim the bounty on her life. Windu arrived shortly afterward and located their position, but Master Saa was forced to spend a great deal of time in a bacta tank to recover from her wounds. As she recovered, Master Saa worked with the seemingly mindless body of Depa Billaba, working diligently to try and return the female Jedi to her normal self. It was during this period of reflection that Mace Windu returned from The Rig, and gave back the lightsaber she had lost on Null. Note that the officialStar Wars website refers to this Jedi Master as Tr'a Saa. (DRKN, WOTC, RSF)
Traal, Zeta  
this icy woman served the Imperial Diplomatic Corps as a Captain, and was known as an excellent scout. Her report on the planet Velmor, which prescribed the orbital bombardment of the Tol Velmoc Mountains, was intercepted by the natives of the planet and never made it to the Empire. Thus, Velmor was spared destruction, even though it was forced to suffer through Imperial occupation. Traal installed herself as the Imperial attache' who served as Prince Anod's advisor, during his training to become King. She approached Korl Marcus, believing that his lack of identification only lent credence to his bounty hunting skills, to kill Prince Denid and ensure Anod's succession to the throne. She wasn't aware that Marcus was really Luke Skywalker, but she needed to ensure that Anod was named King of Velmor. In the melee that resulted from the botched "assassination," Traal killed Anod. She later was forced to kill Jedidiah, who attacked her while she was hunting for Luke. This gave Luke an opening to knock Traal unconscious. Denid then had her imprisoned for crimes against Velmor. (LTA2, WOTC, MC49)
Trabler  
this huge, well-muscled man was a member of the Imperial Security Bureau at the height of the New Order. Known more for his strength than his mind - it was rumored he could pull the head off an Ithorian with his bare hands - he was assigned to missions that required physical manipulation. Trabler was also unswervingly loyal to the Emperor. His last mission was accompanying Ysanne Isard to Darkknell in order to recover the stolen plans to the first Death Star. Trabler was killed during the mission, caught in a cross-fire between Isard and Hal Horn. Trabler and Isard had attempted to eliminate Horn, but the Corellian managed to gain the upper hand in the exchange. When Trabler tried to attack Horn with a knife, Horn shot him through the chest. (TFNR)
Tracc'sorr  
this Coynite term translated into Basic as "sworn allegiance." (PG3)
Trace, Arvel  
this former Imperial governor of Sesid built up a large security force to keep the system in line. He supported the dictators Feynir and Maeril in hopes of getting their nations to work together peacefully. (GG12)
Trace-breather  
a device which uses cartridges of gas to provide respiratory elements to races which cannot breathe certain atmospheres. The cartridge contains a limited supply of gas, which is expelled over time when the cartridge is inserted into a special breathing mask. The cartridges must be continually replaced if the individual remains out of its normal environment for too long. (TJP)
Tracedart  
this small projectile is used in a game of skill. Each player must throw their darts at a gameboard. The dart literally traces a line to the target. There are various methods to scoring a tracedart match. (CSA)
T'racen, Dunc  
this young Mistryl woman was teamed up with Shada D'ukal shortly after the Battle of Endor, so that the younger woman could learn more about the galaxy around her. When the two Mistryl were contracted to transport Ghitsa Dogder, Fenig Nabon, and a cargo of Twi'leki dancers from Ryloth to Nal Hutta, both Mistryl tried to renege on the deal, claiming it was slavery. However, their investigation into the contract and their interviews with the dancers revealed nothing illegal. Nonetheless, Dunc was constantly at odds with Ghitsa during their flight. Ghitsa needled her at every opportunity, and it was all Dunc could do to keep from shooting her dead. (TFNR)
Tracer Beacon  
this was a version of the standard homing beacon, used during the last decades of the Old Republic. Resembling a small disc, the tracer was placed on the hull of a starship to track to hyperspace. The tracer was quite powerful, but it could often be discovered by a criminal or smuggler because of the cloakign shadow it gave off. This shadow registered as a sensor image of the target ship, on the target ship's sensors. (VD2, AOTCN)
Tracer Beam  
this was a low-powered beam of cohesive energy that could be fired from a blaster weapon to indicate the trajectory of a beam. Many weapons could be set to fire only tracer beams, which allowed them to be used for target practice. In combat, tracer beams were used sparingly, since they consumed power like regular blaster bolts. However, they were useful in finding the correct range and trajectory for hitting a target in darkened or night-time environments. (HSL)
Tracer Droid  
any form of automata that is used to track an individual. (THG)
Tracer Orb  
developed during the last decades of the Old Republic, tracer orbs were small devices used to monitor an individual's location. Shaped like an eyeball, a tracer orb could be implanted in place of an organic eye, allowing the user to send detailed visual information back to a central location. The technology behind a tracer orb's abilities was based on nanotechnology imbedded in organic matter. (BF4)
Tracer Spineray  
similar in many respects to the provoker spineray, this Yuuzhan Vong bio-construct could trace the neural pathways of a living being. However, it could only perform specific functions, such as issuing pain to certain receptors with micromillimeter precision, and then gauging how the react to pain affected nearby tissues. It could also determine the efficiency with which neural pathways could transmit information. (EL1)
Trace-scrambler  
this device was used in conjunction with a standard comlink, to scramble a transmission and prevent any beings who were searching for the comlink's owner from actually locating them. While the trace-scrambler did not mask the actual transmission of the comlink, it did encrypt the transmission enough to disable most triangulation sensors from pinpointing its location. (EOV, GMR8)
Tracher  
this Imperial Army private was among the forces which first landed on Alluuvia. He quickly followed Private Kinard's lead and helped wipe out the Anguillas which greeted them. (OE)
Trachta  
this cyborged human served as one of the original Imperial Grand Moffs, during the years leading up to the Battle of Yavin. Trachta's cybernetics closely resembled that of Darth Vader, with a triangular breath mask covering his nose and mouth. Both eyes had been replaced by ocular cameras, and his lungs were mechanically enhanced. He hated the Jedi as much as he hated the Sith, and was one of the major participants in an early plot to assassinate Emperor Palpatine, hoping to eliminate Darth Vader in the same masterful stroke. Trachta had known Palpatine for nearly three decades when he hatched his plans to eliminate Vader and all remnants of the Sith, while creating a new Imperial regime in his own image. Unknown to his co-conspirators, Trachta also planned to eliminate each of them in time. His plans fell through, however, when Grand Moff Bartam set his own plans in motion. Just as Bartam was assassinated by Trachta's agent, Trachta found himself cornered by one of Bartam's agents. The agent shot him immediately, killing Trachta on the spot. (SWEB)

Tracker  
this was a model of automap developed and manufactured by SoroSuub during the Galactic Civil War. It employed a large screen, which displayed a variety of information on the surrouding terrain and the user's position within it. Essentially a datapad, the Tracker was the handheld version of SoroSuub's AutoTracker. (IA, GUN)
Tracker  
this was a utility vest produced by Ayelixe/Krongbing Textiles during the height of the Galactic Civil War. The Tracker vest was made from leathery bantha hide, and provided a pockets and sheaths for hunters and guides to store small items. (AEG)
Tracker-4 Airspeeder  
this was Bakur RepulsorCorp's military airspeeder, measuring seven meters in length and armed with a front-mounted dual laser cannon. It required a pilot and gunner, and could transport two additional troopers and 20 kilograms of cargo. It had a flight ceiling of two kilometers, and could attain speeds of 500 kilometers per hour. (TBSB)
Tracker's Guild  
this was one of the Old Republic's foremost schools of tracking and scouting. The primary school was located on the planet Tolan. Captain Panaka of the Naboo Royal Security Force trained here, under a strict Zabrak instructor, before joining the force under Captain Magneta. (GMR2)
Track-trill  
this device is often used by gamblers who cheat at spinnerpit and other similar games of chance. It allows them to magnetize specific tracks, causing the small balls to roll into those tracks. (MJEH)
Tracomp  
a shipboard sensor that locates a planet's magnetic poles for ground referencing. They are small components, capable of being removed and used in a handheld manner. They fit in the palm of a man's hand. (SME)
Tra'cor  
this large beast, native to the hidden oases of the planet Socorro, resembled an aquatic version of the rancor. The tra'cor lived it entire life in the water, ambushing its prey before consuming it in a few bites. (BSS)
TracSheet  
this was a New Republic document which detailed all known information about a specific criminal. This document was based on an Imperial datafile maintained for the same reasons: to monitor the activities of criminals. (GG11)
Tract Authority  
this was the branch of Makem Te's government that maintained The Tract. (GORW)
Tract Conviction  
this was the body that was charged with the maintenance and upkeep of The Tract, located on the planet Makem Te. More than a million Swokes Swokes worked as accountants and recordkeepers on the Tract Conviction at one point, ensuring that a steady flow of credits was available to keep The Tract operational and functioning. Thousands of flatstenders worked within The Tract to ensure the placement of tiles remained correct, as well as to help families locate their tiles among the trillions of individuals represented there. (WOTC, GORW)
Tract, The  
this was the Basic name, derived from an ancient Swoken term, of the vast cemetary established by the Swokes Swokes on their homeworld of Makem Te. In a ritual that was millennia in age, Swokes Swokes would place a ceremonial, two-meter-square tile in The Tract whenever an individual died. On top of this tile was a small stone pillar called a stela. By the time of the New Order, more than 1.2 trillion Swokes Swokes had been buried in The Tract, which covered more than seven percent of the surface on Makem Te. From space, The Tract appeared to be a northern polar ice cap, as was noted in the first scouting reports done on the Makem System by the Old Republic. This led to the addition of The Tract to the list of the galaxy's Twenty Wonders. The bodies of those Swokes Swokes who were represented in The Tract were actually chopped up or incinerated, and their remains were returned to the family as good luck charms. Only the stone tile was placed in The Tract. Many years later, The Tract was nearly destroyed when the Yuuzhan Vong launched their invasion of the galaxy. The alien invaders destroyed a refueling station that orbited Makem Te, in an effort to further hinder traffic flowing along the Perlemian Trade Route. The debris from the station crashed throughout the northern hemisphere of the planet, narrowing missing the land covered by The Tract. (WOTC, GORW)
Tracti  
this unusual tree was grown by the Tusken Raiders of the planet Tatooine, in secret oases where it was hidden from prying eyes. The Tusken Raiders maintained small grove of tracti trees so that they could harvest its wood, which was often used to create the stocks and barrels of their primitive rifles. (NEGW)
Tracton  
this name was commonly given to Quarren males, and meant "inspirational". (GCG)
Tracton  
this Quarren scientist was one of Senator Tikkes' aides, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. Tracton had a background in planetology, and helped the Senator determine the mineral and biological wealth of planets. He was shot and killed on a remote world in the Kamdon System, when Aurra Sing attacked Senator Tikkes' starship while trying to kill Tikkes and the Dark Woman. (HFAS)
Tractor Beam  
any device which is used to immobilize and move an object. They are modified force fields which employ a graviton-flux beam to alter the shape of the surrounding space-time fabric. The shape is altered so that the target is caught on a ripple of fabric and then "rolled" back toward the generator. Thus, tractor beams can be used to maneuver ships in docking bays, as well as to contain a fleeing ship. In some instances, large tractor beams can also be used to destroy smaller ships by creating a large enough ripple to crash into the target. (SW, SWSB)
Tractor Cuffs  
this was the name used to describe a specialized form of binders, which contained a miniature tractor beam generator in the locking mechanism. This allowed a policebeing or other law officer to not only bind the hands of a criminal, but to anchor them to a specific location with the tractor beam. This ensured that the captured individual did not try to escape. (LCF)
Trade  
if two tribes of Abyssin meet at an oasis during a plentiful season, they will Trade with each other. Gaunts, weapons, and young males and females are exchanged between the two tribes, ensuring both willl survive until their next meeting. (GG4)
Trade City  
this was one of the larger cities on the planet Arkania. (EGP)
Trade Commission  
this was the group, formed by the Old Republic Senate, which looked for ways to enforce inter-system trade during the last decades of the Old Republic. The Commission decided that the taxation of trade routes was required in order to enforce the laws set up by the Senate. Many historians believed that this taxation forced the Trade Federation to blockade the planet Naboo in order to gain the attention of the Senate in order to overturn the taxation laws. (DMS)
Trade Council  
this branch of the Old Republic oversaw the various changes in commerce that occurred when the Clone Wars broke out across the galaxy. They were the primary body in mediating disputes over the availability to important technical parts and raw materials, especially when the requisition of a commodity caused economic hardship on a planet. (TCD)
Trade Defense Force  
this was the name of the fleet of warships and military personnel who supported the Trade Federation, during the last decades of the Old Republic. Much of the Trade Defense was turned over to the Republic in the wake of the Battle of Naboo. (RP)
Trade Federation  
this group was formed during the Old Republic, some 350 years before the Battle of Yavin, to monitor and maintain the delicate balances of power between the growing economies of the Core Worlds and the developing worlds of the remote Outer Rim Territories. Ostensibly, they were the policemen of commerce for the Old Republic, working to ensure fairness and mediate disputes between merchants and transport providers. The Federation became large enough, and powerful enough, to maintain a seat in the Galactic Senate as if they were a populated planet. Many outlying systems aligned themselves with the Federation, rather than requesting direct representation in the Senate, because it was a more expedient way to develop trade with the Core Worlds. However, the Trade Federation - controlled by the Neimoidian race - was inherently weak, and soon found itself under the control of Darth Sidious during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. A series of political maneuvers led to the Old Republic's taxation of trade routes in the galaxy, which took away much of the control and profit realized by the Neimoidians. In an attempt to force the repeal of the tax law, and under the control of Sidious, the Trade Federation threatened the world of Naboo by blockading all trade to and from the planet. The blockade was eventually broken during the Battle of Naboo, but the Federation had already outlived its usefulness to Sidious, who abandoned them when they could no longer control the situation. In the aftermath of the Naboo blockade, the Trade Federation's warfleet and its military personnel were absorbed into the Old Republic's own defense forces, and the Federation itself was restricted in its ability to do business. The Republic ordered the immediate downsizing of the Federation's droid forces, but many of these combat automatons were simply resold to Federation holdings. Nute Gunray, the Viceroy of the Trade Federation, survived imprisonment and maintained control of the Federation. However, he felt betrayed by Darth Sidious and so threw his support to Count Dooku and the Separatists. In the wake of the Clone Wars and the establishment of the New Order, the Trade Federation was absorbed into the Empire and Imperialized when Sentepeth Findos signed a treaty with the Empire. His assumption of power was questioned by other members of the Federation, who vowed to fight against any Imperial opposition. These small groups of resistance were eventually eliminated, and the Trade Federation ceased to exist. (SW1, TPM, IS1, RP, COD, GB, SWDB, SWI84)
Trade Federation Armaments Committee  
this branch of the Trade Federation Executive Board was charged with ensuring that the Federation's members and starships were properly protected against pirates and other threats. (SON)
Trade Federation Battleship  
based on Hoersch-Kessel Drive, Incorprated's huge, ring-shaped LH-3210 cargo freighters, the Trade Federation's battleships were heavily converted for military use. This conversion made them perfect for the Federation's use, as unsuspecting targets didn't realize they were under attack until it was too late. Measuring 3,170 meters in diameter, these battleships had huge storage areas in the outer hull, which surrounded the central, spherical command center. The Federation equipped each battleship with 1,500 Vulture droid starfighters, 50 C-9979 landing ships, 550 MTT troop transports, 6,250 AAT battle tanks, and 1,500 troop carriers. The ships were powered by a pair of Rendili Proton 2 sublight drives, supported by an array of Proton 12 drives as backup. Weaponry wes limited by the original, non-military configuration, and consisted of 42 quad-laser batteries spaced around the outer hull. The armament was nevertheless efficient, especially when supported by the battleship's potent shields. (SW1, X1, IG1)
Trade Federation Directorate  
see Trade Federation Executive Board (NEGC)
Trade Federation Executive Board  
this was the primary governing body of the Trade Federation, and was responsible for making the strategic decisions of the Federation. Also known as the Directorate, this seven-member body was controlled by the Neimoidian Inner Circle. Shortly before the Battle of Naboo, Darth Sidious arranged to have six of the seven members of the Board assassinated, leaving Nute Gunray as the sole survivor and, therefore, the new Viceroy. Gunray then filled the remaining six positions with puppets who would do his bidding. (SON, COD, NEGC)
Trade Federation Gunboat  
this aquatic vehicle was specially-commissioned by the Trade Federation when it being preparing for its invasion of Naboo. It was designed to operate in the swamps and rivers of the planet, with heavy underpating to protect against underwater obstacles. It was equipped with heavy-duty engines and armor plating, and was armed with a turret-mounted twin laser cannon. The gunboat measured six meters in length, and required a pilot to operate. It could transport up to 40 kilograms of cargo and three passengers. (BFN, GMR3)

this was the name given to a large, hollowed-out asteroid located in the Tatoo System. The Grotto was used by any number of independent starship captains as a kind of impromptu marketplace, where goods and services could be exchanged without governmental intervention. (SWGAL)
Trader's Luck  
this ancient Liberator-class troopship began life as the Guardian of the Republic. Garris Shrike purchased the old ship and gutted the interior, refitting it to create various living environments for the smugglers, thieves, and strong-arms that made up Shrike's travelling horde. When Shrike was killed on Coruscant, the ship was abandoned and left for scrap. When it was sold at auction, the Corellian resistance purchased it and renamed it the Liberator. They donated the ship to the Alliance forces for the Battle of Ylesia. (TPS, RD)
Traders Plaza  
this open area is located in the city of Talos, on Atzerri. Its design is such that unwary visitors to Atzerri are likely to lose their money as they pass through many unnecessary checkpoints, pay illusory tariffs, and shop for overpriced goods.

Traest  
this Bothan name was given to newborn males. Translated into Basic, it meant "enthralling." (GCG, WOTC)
Traest Kre'fey  
this Bothan was a member of the New Republic military, and served as an Admiral at the time of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Traest came from a long line of Bothan leaders, including his grandfather Laryn and his brother, Karka. Like his relatives, Traest had creamy-white fur. However, he had violet eyes which were flecked with gold, an indication of that fact that he was also related to Borsk Fey'lya through a complex tangle of relationships. He was one of the few members of the New Republic command structure who took the Yuuzhan Vong invasion seriously, and worked with Gavin Darklighter and Rogue Squadron to develop tactics that would overcome the Yuuzhan Vong's organic defenses. Traest commanded the Assault Cruiser Ralroost during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. He was disdainful of his cousin's political maneuverings, wishing only to defeat the alien invaders and rid the New Republic of the threat. Thus, when Fey'lya opted to remain aboard the Ralroost during the defense of Ithor, Traest took steps to ensure that Fey'lya had little chance to cause trouble. However, Traest was one of the minority of Naval officers who felt that the Senate and the New Republic were not acting in the galaxy's best interests in the war against the Yuuzhan Vong, and gladly agreed to help Gavin Darklighter and Rogue Squadron attack the shipwomb being grown in the Sernpidal system. He even went so far as threatening to take the entire naval force of the New Republic into the Unknown Regions, should the Senate continue to try and run the military. Admiral Kre'fey remained at the forefront of the Republic's battle against the Yuuzhan Vong, and was placed in command of the task force which massed near Kashyyyk to launch hit-and-run missions against the aliens. In the wake of the death of Borsk Fey'lya, Admiral Kre'fey redoubled his efforts to defeat the Yuuzhan Vong. He daily asked his crew two questions during the conflict: "Howcan I hurt the Yuuzhan Vong today?" and "If I can't hurt the enemy, what can I do to help my side grow stronger?" He had these questions painted above the bulkheads leading to the Ralroost's command center, as a constant reminder of his crew's duties. As the war ground on, Admiral Kre'fey continued to work with his fellow commanders to find a weakness in the Yuuzhan Vong. It was obvious that the aliens were spread too thin to support a massive campaign against the Republic, yet the Republic could not spare a large portion of its own fleet to make focused attacks. With the formation of the Galactic Alliance, Kre'fey was able to pool his resources with those of Grand Admiral Pellaeon and Garm Bel Iblis, forming a total of four distinct battle groups which could be brought to bear against the alien invaders. His plans to defend Calamari from attack proved almost unnecessary when Zonama Sekot suddenly reappeared near Coruscant, forcing nearly every Yuuzhan Vong fleet back to Coruscant to defend Supreme Overlord Shimrra. Kre'fey reasoned that this was the time to finally strike a decisive blow against the Yuuzhan Vong, a plan that met with mixed emotions but was ultimately approved. The final battle was launched some five years after the initial Yuuzhan Vong attacked on Belkadan and Helska, and saw the Galactic Alliance's forces matched ship for ship by the Yuuzhan Vong. The presence of Zonama Sekot was of great assistance, since it drew a large portion of the defense fleet away from the main fighting. After the Alliance's ground forces and the Jedi Knights managed to defeat both Shimrra and Onimi, and when Zonama Sekot managed to repel Shimrra's attempt to use the Alpha Red virus against it, Kre'fey discovered that the war had been won. Although many Yuuzhan Vong chose to flee or commit suicide, a healthy number surrendered. Because of his leadership and the ultimate outcome of the war, Kre'fey found himself being called the "liberator of Coruscant" on the newsfeed. With Sien Sovv's sudden resignation, Kre'fey also found himself promoted to the position of Supreme Commander of the Galactic Alliance's armed forces. (DTO, DTR, EVR, DW, FP, UF, NJOSB)

(E3N)
Tragett, Bogo  
this Alpha Team leader led the second expedition to Maltha Obex, setting up a base from which Joto Eckels could operate. Traggett's team remained on the planet when Eckels left to deliver the Qella bodies to Coruscant, and was left stranded on the planet when Eckels returned. Eckels was forced to keep Tragett's team planet-bound, because the Teljkon vagabond had re-entered the system. (TT)
Traggisk  
this was one of the more common names used by Trandoshan hunters. Like most Trandoshan names, it was reserved for males, but could be adopted by those rare females who became hunters. In the Trandoshan language, the name meant "bludgeons in fury". (GCG)
Traggissk Reosss  
this Trandoshan was a wing leader for the Winnard Clan, until he attacked an Imperial convoy near the Corporate Sector. It was unknown whether Reosss knew the convoy was Imperial, but the Empire quickly retaliated. The Winnard Clan was hunted down and decimated. Their leader, Cloone, told the Empire of Reosss' existence, and that it was believed he was unaware of the affiliation of the convoy. Nevertheless, Reosss was expelled from the Clan, which Cloone was later able to rebuild. In order to ensure that Reosss was brought to justice for the deaths of the Clan's original members, Cloone issued a bounty on the Trandoshan's head. The bounty was further increased by the Empire, when it was learned that Reosss might be working for the Alliance. (GMR6)

Training Lightsaber  
developed from a standard lightsaber, this weapon was created by the Jedi Order to allow very young students to begin training in the use of a standard lightsaber. Training lightsabers are nearly identical to a standard lightsaber, with the exception of its power and the possible exception of its size. Training lightsabers are meant to be used by young children with little combat experience. Thus, they had their ability to cut through materials greatly diminished in order to reduce injuries. (PJSB)
Training Remote  
this term was used to describe any remote or seeker which was used to train an individual for combat. Several different versions of training remotes were developed, depending on the type of combat an individual was training for. In general, these remotes had tiny repulsorlift engines which moved them about in the air, to strike from different locations and avoid being hit. Many of these devices were used to enhance the hand-to-eye coordination of gunfighters, but a good number of them - such as the Marksman-H from Industrial Automaton - were used to train Jedi Knights in blind-fighting techniques. (SW, PJSB)

Trammel, Rufus  
this man was known as a "procurer of all things exotic" during the last decades of the Old Republic, which basically meant he was a smuggler. An unpleasant man who nonetheless had an uncanny ability to locate just about anything, he was best known for his ability to obtain rare and unique creatures. He was attracted to the moon of Dorumaa, where he hoped to locate incredible beasts in the deep waters of Dorumaa's oceans. He kept his dealings private, for the most part, after his dealings on Blathar III. However, his continued presence in the Cularin earned him the ire of Nirama, who swore to feed Trammel to a slow-eating beast if he was ever apprehended. Trammel maintained a low profile, but continued to work on making inroads against the existing criminal organizations. After the Cularin System returned from The Blink, Trammel made plans to have his operations in the system controlled by Phylus Mon, a known slaver and crimelord with powerful ties to the Hutt criminal organizations. Trammel's possible absence made the minor criminal figures in Cularin wary of possible actions by Nirama, and many feared an all-out war between rival organizations. (LFCW)

This and other reptilian creatures were known to have eaten the first two teams of settlers who arrived on Trammis III, and the third team nearly wiped out the reptiles in an effort to establish themselves. The reptiles were later were billed as modern-day dinosaurs, and a large tourist trade developed because of this. Many xenoarchaeologists believed that Trammis III was a possible birthplace of the Sharu, for many Toka spoke a dialect of the Trammic language. (LCM, GMR5)

Tramsig, Jir  
this man was a Colonel in the Old Republic Navy, and was stationed in the platform city of Soboll during the last years of the Republic. He spent the early part of his career trying to move quickly through the ranks in the Old Republic in order to obtain a position of power. This earned a double-edged reputation: he showed promise as an officer, but he made some enemies along the way and was regarded as a manipulative man who put himself first and foremost. When he requested a posting in the Cularin System, it was immediately approved, and he spent a great deal of his time trying to rid the Cularin System's asteroid belt of criminals. He set up a base on operations on Dorumaa, choosing his troops carefully and with an eye toward loyalty and aggressiveness. It was Tramsig who pursued Ginder when he discovered that the Bimm had possession of the head of the former protocol droid L80-RC. Shortly afterward, however, Tramsig was promoted to the rank of Admiral by the Thaereian Military, and served as their spokesman during the Thaereian build-up after Cularin's disappearance. His presence within the Thaereian Military rankled many beings, including Nirama, who regarded them as "bantha-fondling psuedo-soldiers." The true level of his involvement was exposed when the slicer known as Tiny F discovered an encrypted transmission Tramsig had made to his Thaereian commanders scattered across the Cularin System. The message demanded the complete suppression of any rebellious activity, as Tramsig feared that the Cularin resistance had gained too much strength. A later transmission was intercepted at the height of the Clone Wars, in which Tramsig revealed that his forces had secretly been controlling trade in the Cularin System for three generations. The transmission, which featured Tramsig arguing his status with an unknown superior, further revealed that the disappearance of the Cularin System was supposed to have been permanent. The transmission ended with Tramsig declaring that he would kill every being the Cularin System if they failed to comply with the wishes of the Thaereian Military. (LFC, WOA4, LFCW)

She accompanied Madine and Korenn to try and sabotage the Darksaber project, but sacrficed herself aboard the half-built weapon when they were discovered by guards. A laser bolt nearly took off her arm, and when she was captured, she detonated a small explosive when the majority of the guards had surrounded her. This allowed Madine to continue setting out explosive charges. (DS)

Trandosha  
this arid planet was the homeworld of the Trandoshan race of reptiloids. Known also as Dosha or Hsskor, Trandosha was located in the same star system as Kashyyyk. (MTS, SWRPG, WOTC)
Trandoshan  
these humanoid reptiles were native to the planet Trandosha. They had long arms, which ended in wide, splayed fingers. Their heads were blunt, with beady red eyes and a mouth full of sharp teeth. Their scales ranged in color from orange to ochre to brown, and individuals with green scales were not uncommon. Much of their body could be regenerated if lost, so a Trandoshan could fight much harder without risk of permanent injury. Being a vicious, warlike race, the Trandoshans evolved into hunters, and were especially proficient at hunting Wookiees, which inhabited the nearby planet of Kashyyyk. Trandoshans hunted Wookiees with a vengeance after the Wookiees put severe restrictions on tourist to Kashyyyk and the surrounding system, in an effort to halt the damage to their forests. This cut off large sums of credits from the Trandoshans, who retaliated by killing the Wookiees for sport. This practice was stopped by the Galactic Senate, which ruled that the Wookiees were not game animals and were to be left alone. It was a Trandoshan official who sold the idea of enslaving Wookiees - rather than simply leveling Kashyyyk - to the Empire, a deal which Emperor Palpatine readily agreed to. After the Battle of Endor, Trandoshans were once again forced to stop pillaging Kashyyyk for Wookiee individuals when the New Republic threatened economic sanctions against them.

Human and alien alike gathered there to show their support for justice in the galaxy. During the months after the revelation of the Caamas Document, the gatherings took on a new meaning which was denounced by the New Republic. The destruction of several worlds was enacted with lights and dance without any rage or anger.

Transparisteel  
the strong, clear material used for windows on spaceships. It has the unique property of adjusting to the external lighting conditions, darkening the light is brighter and clearing when the light is lower. Specialized, optically-enhanced transparisteel was developed by Kuat Drive Yards during the early years of the New Order, as a way of providing minimal cloaking for the Empire's huge warships. Nano-tech datalinks were imbedded into the transparisteel, and programmed to filter out specifc wavelengths or other visual data. Thus, a ship plated with this special transparisteel would seem almost invisible. However, this was an expensive technology, and never found widespread use. (CPL, SLS)
Transpeeder  
this was a military speeder produced by the Baktoid Armor Workshop during the last decades of the Old Republic. It never gained popularity among the Republic, and was eventually replaced with the Single Trooper Aerial Platform.

TransTech Droidworks  
this small producer of automatons was targeted by the Confederacy of Independent Systems to takeover in the wake of the Battle of Geonosis. The Separatists had begun working with TransTech to produce battle droids, but the sudden appearance of the clone troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic meant that suppliers like TransTech were forced to overproduce, in order to ensure a steady supply of combat droids reached the battlefield.

These birds were captured by the natives of the planet and trained to serve as hunters, although individuals were never truly domesticated. The average ripper measured up to three meters in length, from beak to tail, and had a wingspan over five meters or more. During the height of the New Order, illegal tranthebar races were staging on many planets in the Core Worlds, and smuggling of these creatures off Tranthellix became a profitable endeavor. Racers used sophisticated control units to handle the birds, and were strapped to their bellies while in flight. (GFT)

This order was carried out, and many Coynites agree that is was the highest form of familial honor ever displayed. He was offered riches and political power, and was courted by many nobles families for his incredible loyalty. Tra'Parr'Sratt, however, could not reconcile the murder of his family, and he eventually fled Coyn. Sratt found work as a first mate and strong arm aboard several smuggling ships, and was given an honorary membership to the Society of the Black Bha'lir. Eventually, he went to work for the gangster Abdi-Badawzi, serving as a personal guard to the Twi'lek. He was present when Kaine Paulsen's wife gave birth to a son, and held the infant during the woman's unfortunate death. Because of the events surrounding the birth of Drake Paulsen, Sratt gave him the nickname Lom, which meant "freedom" in the Coynite language. After seeing Drake stand up to Imperial Lieutenant Taggert, Sratt amended the nickname to Lom'Ka'Sol. (SWJ2, BSS)

Trauger  
several generations before the Galactic Civil War, this bounty hunter came to the planet Socorro looking for a target in Cjaalysce'I. A vicious man, Trauger was easily recognized by his cybernetic arms. He demanded that one of the native nomads act as his guide, and threatened to kill a woman every minute until one agreed. The first woman he threatened was Oceke's mother, and Oceke was forced to assist him. However, Trauger underestimated the will of the nomads, for Oceke - furious at Trauger's treatment of his mother - led Trauger to an area covered with pockets of deadly gas. Trauger, unaware of the treachery until it was too late, died in the desert before he could escape the gas. From that point forward, the deadly gas found in the desert was known as Trauger Gas. (BSS)
Trauger Gas  
known to the native Socorrans as traugi'ha, this gas was named for the bounty hunter Trauger, who came to Socorro looking for a target. The gas is found mainly in the northern polar regions, and is odorless and colorless. It forms when chemicals in the volcanic sand of the planet mix with water, forming a highly corrosive acid during the spring. As the hot summer baked the sand, the water in the acid evaporates, leaving behind the deadly gas. A being caught in a pocket of Trauger Gas will survive for just a few minutes, often just long enough to realize they peril before they expire. (BSS)

Traveler  
this was the name used by a human female encountered by Dariana many years before the onset of the Clone Wars. Dariana met the woman in the jungles of the planet Cularin when she was nineteen years old, and the silence they shared spoke more to Dariana than their words. Dariana introduced herself, and the woman simply replied that she was "a Traveler." That was the extent of their conversation, but their silence showed both women that each had nothing to fear from the other. Dariana later used the story of this encounter to discuss the situation in the Cularin System with her fellow Tarasin, during the height of the Clone Wars. Dariana warned that the silence between two beings often spoke louder than any words, and that the Tarasin needed to consider every aspect of their lives and interactions in order to truly grasp the larger picture. (LFCW)

Travnin  
this moon, which orbits a gas giant located in the Minos Cluster, was the Imperial sector capital during the New Order. The moon is a windswept world which supports some rough terrain, including mountains and deserts. The gas giant it orbits is the only planet in the system, itself orbiting a double star. Travnin supports no life on its own, and the human settlers are clustered around a single city and starport. Much of the commerce on the moon was geared toward supporting the Imperial garrison, and when the Empire pulled out of the Cluster, the moon's fortunes went with it. A swoop racing arena was built by the Empire as a form of entertainment and an outlet for frustrated energy, but the poorly-built structure quickly fell into disrepair. Its rotation lasts about 26 standard hours, and its orbit consumes 325 local days. (GG6)

After Trax and Mars Guo got into a vehement argument, Guo threatened to sell Trax to another owner. Pax tried to get Teemto Pagalies to help, but the Boonta Eve Classic was taking place, and the rival racer was forced to focus on his own problems. When Mars Guo was killed in the race, which was eventually won by Anakin Skywalker, Sebulba arranged for Guo's possessions to be sold at auction. Although Teemto acquired Pax, he was unable to afford Trax, who was eventually purchased by Sebulba. Pax continued to work for Teemto, and eventually paid off the price that had been paid for him. When Teemto won the Aleen Classic, he boasted that he was going to buy Ann Gella from Sebulba, but surprised Pax by buying Trax instead. Once he had reunited the brothers, Teemto Pagalies freed them, and they set out to make their own way in the galaxy. (SWDB)

However, despite the success of the Galaxies Opera Houe, Treblanc lost a small fortune while gambling on podraces. Just when he thought he would have to sell the theater, he learned that Chancellor Palpatine was willing to fund the facility. In exchange, the Chancellor only asked for a private viewing box that was protected by the latest in security systems. Treblanc thought the elaborate system of security a small price to pay to retain the theater, especially when Palpatine offered to hire his own team to arrange for the box to be protected. Treblanc was able to maintain ownership of the Galaxies Opera House, but was unaware of the dealings that often happened in Palpatine's box. (SWDB)

Tredway, Axton  
this former Jedi Knight was a descendant of the Tredway family which owned the 24 Tredway asteroid in the Sil'Lume Asteroid Belt. He and his wife ran the mines to earn a living for their family, which included two children: Dena and Erling. Axton, like many Jedi of his age, fought in the Clone Wars, and became good friends with Anakin Skywalker. He even introduced Anakin to his family on 24 Tredway. However, the victory in the Clone Wars was a hollow one for Axton, and he returned home saddened at the state of the Old Republic. Shortly after Palpatine declared himself Emperor, Axton was hunted down and executed by Darth Vader on 24 Tredway, an event which shook his entire family. Axton's wife carried on, making the mines on the asteroid profitable enough to put Dena and Erling through school. However, both children joined the Alliance - in their own ways - and earned the anger of Imperial Governor Sebastian Parnell. In an effort to capture Erling, Parnell destroyed 24 Tredway, killing Axton's wife and severely injuring Dena. (JH)
Tredway, Dena  
this daughter of Axton Tredway, Dena was an idealistic young woman who met Anakin Skywalker when she was very young. She remembered him as quite handsome, and vowed to live her life as her father and the Jedi Knights would have wanted. She joined the Alliance shortly after the Empire took control of the Sil'Lume Asteroid Belt, and became one of Mon Mothma's closest aides. Her position with the Alliance was troubled when her brother, Erling, became the target of Imperial Governor Sebastian Parnell. Mon Mothma feared that Erling's knowledge of Alliance bases throughout the galaxy - and his perfect recollection of their galactic coordinates -would doom the Alliance. Since Erling was fomenting rebellion in the Sil'Lume Belt, Mon Mothma requested Dena to put an stop to his rebellion. She was unable to to so before Governor Parnell attacked 24 Tredway, killing Dena's mother and capturing Erling while severely injuring Dena in the process. She was rescued by Luke Skywalker, Gideon Smith, and Sidney Shortfang, who took her to Ire Eleazari's asteroid to recover. (JH)
Tredway, Erling  
this son of the Jedi Knight Axton Tredway, Erling had an uncanny ability to remember the exact galactic coordinates of every planet or moon he visited, as well as the coordinates of thousands of other locations he had only heard of. Like his sister, Dena, Erling met Anakin Skywalker at a young age. Unlike Dena, though, Erling grew to hate the Jedi and their "misguided righteousness" because of the death of Axton at the hands of Darth Vader. Erling decided to fight against the Imperial occupation of the Sil'Lume Asteroid Belt in a non-violent manner, and became the target of presecution from Imperial Governor Sebastian Parnell. Parnell eventually captured Erling, killing Erling's mother and severely injuring Dena in the process. Unknown to Erling, Dena had been ordered by Mon Mothma to keep Erling quiet, a mission picked up by Luke Skywalker after he rescued Dena. Luke, with the help of Gideon Smith and Sidney Shortfang, managed to rescue Erling from Tol Ado. During the escape, Erling had to pretend to be Darth Vader himself, in order to get past Parnell and escape the facility. Erling was thankful for his rescue, and joined the Alliance as an operative. Erling was part of a mission - along with Shira Brie and Kyle Katarn - that was dispatched to disable the superlaser of the second Death Star, while it was en route at D'rinba IV. (JH, WOTC)

Tree Viper  
native to the thin band of rainforests on the planet Najarka, these snakes are not only poisonous but also constrictors. This makes them deadly predators, for any creature that can shrung off the effects of the poison is held within the snake's coils and suffocated. The poison of the tree viper attacks the voluntary muscles of its victim, paralyzing the prey while the snake wraps its coils around it. If the prey survives both the initial effects of the poison and the constricting grasp of the snake, the poison attacks the involuntary muscles, stopping the heart and killing the prey. (TA)
Tree, The  
this was the name used by Besaama to describe the unusual tree that served as the portal to the hidden lair of the Wyrd, on the planet Cularin, during the last years of the Old Republic. The Tree appeared to have been recently struck by lightning, with smoke leaking from its knotholes and a warm fire burning at its heart. A hidden switch inside one of the knotholes opened a small door, although only members of the Wyrd knew of the switch's location.

A naturally cunning man, Treece rose through the ranks of the Imperial Navy, and was once the commander of the Star Destroyer Punisher. On Cloud City, he instituted the virtual enslavement of the Ugnaughts, demanding that they work around the clock to cover up the fact that he was embezzling millions of credits from the Empire. The Ugnaughts rebelled against his tyrannical control of Cloud City, placing a series of twelve bombs throughout the city and threatening to blow them up. Treece ordered the evacuation of the city just before Lando returned to it, although one of the bombs did go off. Treece was injured in the explosion, and Lando was trapped with him. They agreed to work together to escape, and had to incapacitate Lobot in order to regain control of the city. Lando, however, never revealed his true identity, and Treece did not recognize him. Lobot used his network connections to disable the bombs, but Treece had no desire to allow Lando to continue to take control of the city. He pushed Lando over the edge of a city railing, but Lobot managed to rescue him. Treece, however, assumed that they were both dead. When Luke Skywalker arrived to locate Lando, Treece saw his chance to gain a promotion by capturing Skywalker. However, Treece's forces were forced to evacuate Cloud City when Luke threatened to set off the Ugnaughts' bombs. Upon returning to the Empire, Treece learned that Calrissian had altered several of his largest bank accounts on Aargau, transferring credits and information on his treachery to Darth Vader himself. Treece was later executed for his crimes. (EGC, SWDB, MC56, MC57, PH)

If a group of pilots was attacked near a natrual trench or valley, in a deep cityscape like Coruscant, or any other broken surface, the pilots would dive for the surface and weave their wave around and through the various obstacles. This would help throw off pursuit, allowing the pilots to escape. The attackers could either follow them, and be forced to match the pilot's maneuvers, or try to follow them from above, often losing sight of the pilot for extended periods. (WS)

Treppok are peaceful creatures, attacking only when frightened or cornered. (PG1)
Treppok Call  
this was the unusual call used by the Krikthasi to scare away treppok. Most often, the Krikthasi use this call to herd treppok into a position where they can kill it, using the huge fish for food and shelter. (PG1)
Treppus-2  
this was Merr-Sonn's standard vibroblade. It had an adjustable sheath that could be extended to cover the blade when not in use, keeping the blade from being knicked or dulled. (EGW, NEGW)
Treptel  
this was one of the larger cities found on the planet Brosi. It was located at the base of the Taznel Mountains, and was also the site of one of Brosi's two major starports. (AIR)
Tresario Bounty Hunters Guild  
this guild, which was ostensibly part of the Bounty Hunters' Guild, was established during the height of the New Order by Rovan Tresario. Tresario himself was frustrated at the way pirates moved throughout the galaxy, and recruited former Imperial military personnel to begin hunting the pirates down and eliminating them. (GG10, HG)
Tresario, Rovan  
a retired Imperial Navy officer, Rovan Tresario was the third son of a miserly baron. Rovan himself loved money, and was constantly at odds with his father. Rovan was forced to make his own way in life, and found a new family in the Imperial Navy. He had a knack for inspiring loyalty and desire in his peers and subordinates, and quickly became a respected military leader. However, for all his personal skills, Tresario was continually frustrated by the Empire's inability to crack down on piracy. Upon his retirement, Rovan used his own personal wealth and charisma to for the Tresario Bounty Hunters Guild, and financed the establishment of House Tresario, in an effort to bring down piracty in the galaxy. (GG10)
Tresidiss  
this world was privately owned and managed by a collection of Herglic criminals that used the planet as a huge gambling hall. Rather than hide casinos and other gambling houses from the law, the Herglics on Tresidiss make light of them. Over 4,000 separately-managed gambling establishments were in operation during the early years of the New Republic, and they were funded by banks which were essentially legalized loan-sharking organizations. Tresidiss remained a viable world through close ties to the Empire, even after the Battle of Endor, and it was suspected that many Moffs and planetary governors were silent partners in the operation of the world. The day on Tresidiss lasts 23 standard hours, and its year takes up 315 local days. (GG11)
Tresina Lobi  
this Chev was a Jedi Knight, having learned her control of the Force at Luke Skywalker's Jedi praxeum. She had an innate ability to blend into a crowd, especially crowds of non-humans. Tresina and her padawan, Thrynni Vae, were dispatched to Duro to ascertain the role of independent shipping concerns in the decision to allow Duro to become a havne for refugees. Shortly after learning that several key votes in the Duros High House were bought out by independent shipping concerns, Thrynni Vae disappeared. Tresina continued to search for her, but had to return to Coruscant and explain the situation to Luke Skywalker. She also discovered that supplies for various refugee cities were being diverted to Urrdorf. Tresina was ultimately one of the handful of Jedi Knights to survive the conflict with the Yuuzhan Vong. Note that Destiny's Way makes reference to Lobi's "long snout", indicating that she was a Chevin, not a Chev. (BP, DW, UF)
Tresk  
this Bothan name was given to newborn males. Translated into Basic, it meant "cold as the winter." (GCG, WOTC)
Tresk Im'nel  
this Bothan joined the Bothan Diplomatic Corps shortly after Coruscant was retaken from Ysanne Isard, becoming part of Borsk Fey'lya's personal staff. However, Tresk grew weary of Fey'lya's methods, even though they were in keeping with the Bothan Way, and resigned his position to serve on the New Republic Diplomatic Corps. As a member of the New Republic, Tresk used his skills in diplomacy to work with Imperial-controlled worlds to bring them into the Republic. During this time, his latent Force sensitivity came to the fore, and was detected by Leia Organa Solo. Tresk accepted a chance to train at the Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4, and was one of the many Jedi Knights who worked with Luke Skywalker to defend the Republic from the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. Tresk Im'nel was ultimately one of the handful of Jedi Knights to survive the conflict with the Yuuzhan Vong. (WOTC, UF)
Treskov-115W  
this ancient, main-sequence star was located in the galaxy's Deep Core. What made Treskov-115W special was that it was a dead-end along a number of hyperspace travel routes, due to its position in the heart of the galaxy. (DW)
Treson Cluster  
named for its inventor, a Treson cluster was a method of storing small electronic components. (ISB)
Trest Casino  
this Cloud City casino was one of the highest-class establishments on the outpost, and boasted some of the most advanced gaming automata available during the New Order. (GG2, EGD)
Trest Jester  
this was a specially-designed sabacc card that was developed by the management of the Trest Casino, on Bespin's Cloud City, as part of a promotional effort during the height of the New Order. If any sabacc player found the Trest Jester in their hand, they could redeem the card for 5,000 credits. Several forgeries were discovered in the course of the promotion, until the real Trest Jester was finally found. (GORW)
Treston Lines, Limited  
this major cargo transport company was based on Bespin's Cloud City. The leaders of Treston were given positions within the city's Exex during their tenure. (GG2)
Tresycht  
this Saurton nation owned the land surrounding the Thergum Pits, which they sold to the Messert Mines Corporation. The Tresycht and the Yiszte nations had been at war with each other for years, so Messert augmented the Tresycht forces and subjugated the Yiszte inorder to avoid conflict over the rights to the mines. With Messert behind them, the Tresycht eventually took control of all nations on the planet, under the rulership of High Priest Gellack. (PG1)
Tret, Darvis  
this Imperial Lieutenant performed the initial surveys of the Elrood Sector, shortly before the Empire took control of the Sector. He was promoted for his efforts, after Derilyn was subjugated and the Sector was secured. (PG3)

Trevael  
one of the Spice Lords of Sevarcos, Lady Trevael ruled the planet's Northern Frontier at the height of the New Order. (SWJ2)
Trevalis  
this one of the many small mining settlements established on the planet Kallistas. For all intents and purposes, Trevalis was the planetary capital, given that Imperial Prefect Rinn had his base of operations in the city. (GG10)
Trevee  
this large transport ship, owned and operated by the two men known only as Tall and Short, was used to ferry refugees who were fleeing from the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. Tall and Short had gone into the business of moving refugees, charging large sums of credits to get people off a backwater world and transport them to a more affluent planet. They then claimed to have problems with their ship, or claimed to be avoiding a Yuuzhan Vong patrol, and dropped the refugees off on a planet that the Yuuzhan Vong were targetting. Tall and Short would then return, charging the refugees again for transport to another destination. (JE)
Trevi City  
this giant commercial city is found on the planet Trevi IV. Founded by the Truishii settlers who found Trevi IV, the city has a bazaar-like atmosphere filled with sentients from any number of worlds. It's streets are filled with booths and shops, and bright lights keep the city alive at night. (SWJ9)
Trevi IV  
this planet, the fourth world in the Trevi System, was discovered by Truishii settlers who were forced to land there following a hyperdrive accident. Trevi IV is covered with barren plains broken by deserts, although the Truishii found a large body of water near which to settle. The planet's location, in the Quess Sector near the Outer Rim Territories, placed it near a number of hyperspace routes, and the planet's economy grew quickly. The Truishii Trade Guild monitored most of the business, although there are some disreputable operations to be found there. The average day on Trevi IV lasts 28 standard hours, and the year encompasses 389 local days. (SWJ9)
Trevura  
this Inner Rim world was known as a center of droid sales, during the early years of the Galactic Civil War. (WOA14)
Trevval, Liane

Treykon  
this name was common among members of the T'surr race. (WOTC, UANT)
Treylon II  
this planet was the homeworld of Tour Aryon. (GG7)
TRHA-300  
developed by Leisure Mechanicals, this control device was designed to ensure that tranthebar mountain rippers which were raced for sport did not break free and attack anything that moved. Individual riders were required to take intense physical and mental examinations prior to being fitted with the TRHA-300, in order to assess whether they were capable of handling the stresses of racing. (GFT)
Tria Blue  
this was the name of Guther Bartyn's GBX-005 personal yacht. It was named for one of his best-known ancestors, Tria Bartyn, and was lovingly maintained and upgraded. The Tria Blue could attain a top speed of 400 kilometers per hour over the water, and was armed with a pair of dual turbolaser cannons and a pair of proton hydrotorpedo launchers. The ship's superstructure was beefed up based on Guther's plans, in order to withstand an attack from one of Lamaredd's immense ocean predators. In order to ensure his survival in case of an attack, Guther decided not to trust the eight lifepods that came with the GBX-005. Instead, he adapted the hull of the Tria Blue to accept a BBK escape sub, which could be detached from the bow and operated independently. Shortly after the Battle of Naboo, a group of Menahuun spies managed to enter the Tria Blue, despite the formidable guards positioned around the ship by Bartyn. They were apprehended by several freelancers who were working for Mix Liddell, but not until the Menahuun ahd sabotaged the ship and placed explosives throughout the engine compartment. In a tremendous blast, the Tria Blue was destroyed by the Menahuun explosives. (GMR7)
Triad  
the governing council of three members - one human, one Drall, and one Selonian - that rules on Sacorria. They are responsible for making the various policy decisions of the planet. They used to be the Diktat's mouthpiece on the plantet, but since the Empire fell, they have become more autonomous. The Selonians who lived on Sacorria were members of a Den which was ousted from Selonia for disputing a valid settlement and turning their own against the Den. Their Den name has been banned from the Selonian language. It was later revealed that the Triad was responsible for the various revolts that occurred in the Corellian System, having funded them in order to take the attention away from their brainchild, the Starbuster Plot. (AC, SC)
Triad Sea  
this was the largest body of water located on the planet Kathol, and was fed by three oceans. (E)

Trian  
this planet, which was the homeworld of the Trianii race, was located in a sector that bordered on the Corporate Sector. The Corporate Sector Authority later decided to annex the planet, and revoked its charter without any discussion. The Trianii opposed it, but were quieted by the Corporate Sector Authority's less-than-admirable tactics. After the Battle of Endor, however, the Trianii were able to retake their homeworld and drive the CSA out of their systems. (HSE, CSA, WOTC)
Trianii  
this feline race, which was native to the planet Trian, evolved from a species of predatory felines. They were humanoid in stature, with prehensile tails and sleek fur. Female Trianii were generally stronger and faster than the males, and the Trianii were ruled by the tribunal of females known as the yu'nar. Trianii culture was strongly based on the family, and their primary religions all stressed the need for families. For many generations, the Trianii existed in relative isolation. When the Corporate Sector Authority decided to annex the planet Trian, during the early years of the New Order, the Trianii refused to allow this to happen. Many of them resisted, but the planet was eventually annexed by force. Some Trianii continued to speak out against the Authority, and were captured and held at Stars' End. After the Battle of Endor, the Trianii were able to drive out the CSA and reclaim their systems. Curious by nature, the Trianii were known to be excellent scouts and explorers. The most agile and cunning Trianii often become Rangers, an elite group of warriors made up of both males and females of the race. The females of the Trianii race were exceptional dancers, and their ritualistic performances were nothing short of high artistry and acts of devotion to their race and their art. (HSE, WOTC)
Trianii  
this was the native language of the Trianii people, a combination of purrs, growls, and rolling vocalizations. The written version used characters to represent syllable sounds. (WOTC, UANT)
Trianii Rangers  
this was an elite army of Trianii that served as a highly-skilled legion of law enforcement officials, protecting the planet Trian and its colony worlds. They were excellent marksmen, and moved with incredible stealth. (HSE)
Tri-arc CD-3.2

Tribal Relief Fund  
established by Aquato Boliscon, this legitimate charity provided food, shelter, and medical care to the various nomadic tribes of the planet Socorro. (BSS)
TribBot  
this series of mimic droids, produced by RetSpan Audionics, mimicked the vocal output of a singer. This allowed the TribBot to reproduce sound slugs of popular artists, without the owner having to actually purchase the "official" slug. This was considered piracy by many artists and music producers, who responded by employed automata that blocked the recording of their music. Many times, this was a forceful prohibition, using specially-camouflaged combat droids. (HNN5)
Tribe of Issori  
this was the Issori form of representation in the government of the planet Issor. It was the equal of the Tribe of Odenji. (SWJ13)

Tribune-class Shuttle  
developed by Sienar Fleet Systems, the Tribune-class shuttle measured 18.5 meters in length. It required a crew of three to operate, and could carry up to fourteen passengers and 30 metric tons of cargo. These ships were one of the few Sienar designs built primarily for civilian use, and it was unarmed. (GSE)
Tri'byia  
this Bothan served as the Field Controller, as part of the guard and support team monitoring the Drev'starn shield generator, during the time surrounding the Caamas Incident. It was Tri'byia who allowed Drend Navett and Klif into the power generator, ostensibly to combat an infestation of metalmites. The metalmites, however, had been planted in the generator by Klif and Navett, to allow them access to the generator station. (VOF)
Trichinitis  
an easily treated disease. (HT)
Trichobezoar  
this parasite was native to the planet Toydaria, where it often found its way into the gizzards of the Toydarian race. As a reaction, Toydarians experienced severe vomiting until the parasite was expelled. (MBS)
Trickster  
this was the name used by Jaina Solo to describe the Ksstarr, after the Jedi team to Myrkr stole the frigate to escape. She chose the name after conversing with the Yuuzhan Vong priest Harrar, whose patron deity was Yun-Harla, the Trickster. Harrar and Khalee Lah tried to track the ship using the normal procedure of monitoring its gravitic signature, but Lowbacca had managed to alter the Trickster's communication system in such a way as to receive signals from the Yuuzhan Vong but not transmit sensor data back to a yammosk. This allowed Jaina and the Jedi to move about in the Trickster without being tracked a yamoosk or by dovin basal mines. Upon arriving at Hapes, Tenel Ka had planned to go ahead in an escape pod and arrange for the arrival of the Jedi. Her pod was captured by the renegade pirate ship Starspritee, which was eventually captured by the Trickster. The Yuuzhan Vong boarding system involved melting a hole in the Starsprite with an organic acid, leaving the two ships bonded together. The conjoined ships were then escorted to Hapes by Jagged Fel and Shawnkyr Nuruodo. The Trickster spent the trip trying to heal itself, a compromise made for not jettisoning the Starsprite completely. The Trickster literally panicked upon reaching Hapes, and the Jedi had to separate the ships or lose them both. The ship nearly died in the subsequent starfight around Hapes, in which the Hapan Navy and Jaina's squadron defeated the Yuuzhan Vong. (DJ, DW)
Trickster  
this is the brand name of Corellian Engineering's starship decoy system. An addition to a ship's countermeasures system, these small decoys could be deployed during flight. They sent out electromagnetic and holographic signals that duplicated those of the parent ship. The Trickster decoys required Imperial certification for operation during the New Order. (GG6)
Trickster  
this was one of the nicknames of the Yuuzhan Vong goddess Yun-Harla. (VP)
Trickster Jammer  
this was the nickname given to the New Republic's repulsor-based gravitic countermeasures, used to disrupt the communications of a Yuuzhan Vong yammosk. These devices were developed using intelligence gathered by Jaina Solo and Danni Quee, and allowed the New Republic's naval forces to equalize the odds during battle. They were named for the Yuuzhan Vong goddess Yun-Harla, who was known as the Trickster, and whose guise was adopted by Jaina Solo in an attempt to goad the Yuuzhan Vong into rash actions. (DW)
Triclops  
the true son of Emperor Palpatine, Triclops is a three-eyed mutant whose third eye is located on the backside of his head. He has white, unruly hair, and his temples are scarred from years of forced shick treatments. The Empire considers him insane, and a threat to the Empire and the galaxy if he ever becomes Emperor himself. So Palpatine banished him to the spice mines of Kessel, where Trioculus cruelly abused him while plotting to take Triclops' place as Palpatine's son. Triclops developed a pattern of evil dreams at some point, and some of his dreams dealt with the development of new superweapons. Since tapping Trioculus as the false son of the Emperor, the Empire keeps Triclops alive in a hidden asylum on the planet Duro, working to reprogram his mind as well as to steal the information from his dreams. The Empire routinely denied the existence of a son of Palpatine, until Trioculus claimed he was the Emperor's son and assumed rulership of the Empire. Triclops' third eye emits an hypnotic pulse. He has always despised the Empire, and his hatred of it helped him resist the reprogramming he received on Duro. In case he ever escaped, the Imperial implanted a special device in one of his molars. It was attached to his brain, and could send signals to any nearby probe droids, detailing the fantastic creations of his dreams. (LCJ, MMY, PDS)
Trico  
an edible, fungus-like algae native to the moon Yavin 8. The Melodies have many uses for trico, the primary of which is food. Young Melodies who cannot consume the silver-backed fish that populate the moon's streams must subsist on trico until their digestive systems mature. Older Melodies who have not yet had their changing ceremony also use the trico in a mesh-like mask which provides them oxygen when they dive below the surface of the water their elders inhabit. (LW)
Tricopper  
this valuable, metallic ore was mined on the planet Ord Cestus. (TCD)
Tricorrinium Hexifluorine  
this was a hazardous by-product of the environmental systems used to maintain the ecosystem of the planet Coruscant. (HNN5)
Trid  
this city was the site the primary spaceport found on the planet Danuta, and served as the nimonal planetary capital. The Imperial research facility which maintained the complete technical readouts of the first Death Star was also located here. The plans were stolen by Kyle Katarn, and were used in conjunction with the schematics captured on Toprawa in order to give the Alliance the basis for their attack during the Battle of Yavin. The city itself has been designed by the Brodsport Mining Corporation, laid out in a neat grid that gave it very little character. (SFE, SWMW)

Tri-Droid  
this unusual combat droid was developed by the Separatists during the Clone Wars. These droids were essentially larger versions of the octuptarra droid, which was named for an unusual creature that was native to the planet Skako. The tri-droids were armed with laser turrets. (OWS, SWDB)
Triebakk  
this Wookiee represented Kashyyyk as a New Republic Senator, and served on the New Republic Advisory Council when the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy. Senator Triebakk was one of the minority which opnely supported the Jedi Knights, despite strong public and private disgruntlement with the Jedi Order. Unfortunately for the Jedi, and for many of the galaxy's inhabitants, Senator Triebakk was one of the Advisory Council members who were lost in the wake of the Second Battle of Coruscant. (VP, WOTC, EL1)

Tri-fighter  
a form of Uglies, the Tri-fighter was one of the staples of the Invid pirate fleet. It was custom designed from the basic ball-shaped cockpit of a TIE Fighter. Attached to it were three angular blades spaced 120 degrees apart. The bottom two served as landing gear, and the third came up over the cockpit. All wings had cutouts to improve pilot visibility. The standard pair of laser cannons remained, augmented by a third mounted on the upon wing. They also had shields. The New Republic's pilots referred to them as clutches. (IJ)
Tri-fighter  
this three-winged, droid starfighter was produced for the Confederacy of Independent Systems by the Colla Designs - part of the Colicoid Creation Nest - and Phlac-Arphocc Automata Industries during the height of the Clone Wars. These craft were distinguished by their shape, but also by the eerie, red "eyes" of the craft's sensor systems. A central sphere held the main droid brain and the drive system, while three curved wings wrapped around the sphere to give the fighter craft its name. The front of each wing was notched to house a laser cannon, and a fourth cannon was mounted on the front of the central sphere. The overall design of the Tri-fighter was based on the skull of a prehistoric hunter-killer that was once native to Colla IV. The ship was powered by three separate thrusters, giving it incredible manevuerability and speed. The 5.4-meter-long Tri-fighter was armed with a medium laser cannon mounted on the main sphere, a light laser cannon mounted on each wing, and a buzz-droid missile launcher. (LEV, VD3, X3)

this raw mineral and crystal processing and refining corporation was one of the original Contributing Sponsors of the Corporate Sector Authority. It flourished under the rule of Emperor Palpatine, but then floundered shortly after the Battle of Endor. Trigdale shed many of its subordinate divisions in an effort to streamline its business. One of the few that survived on its own was the Marketing division, which became Syndicate One. (CSA, SWJ8)
Trigg  
this man was one of the many Loyalists who were fighting to free their homeworld of Jabiim from Imperial control, during the early years of the Galactic Civil War. When Leia Organa and Luke Skywalker arrived on the planet, at the request of Nolan Gillmunn himself, Trigg was among a small group who decided to have some sport with Luke. The Jabiimites realized that he was the son of Anakin Skywalker, who they claimed had abandoned the planet to the Separatists during the Clone Wars. Trigg and his thugs beat Luke badly, which Trigg considered payback for the death of his father in the wake of the Battle of Jabiim, until Gillmunn put a stop to it. When Trigg learned of the Imperial ambush of the Loyalist headquarters, he found himself trying to protect Luke and Nolan from a group of stormtroopers. He sacrificed his own life so that they could escape, telling himself all along that he was only doing it for Nolan's safety. (SWESF)
Triggerbird  
native to the Life Zone of the gas giant Bespin, these birds lived among the tentacles of a beldon. This allowed them to feed on other creatures in relative safety. (T)

Trigit  
this surname was common among human settlements found throughout in the galaxy. (GCG)
Trigit, Apwar  
Trigit was an Admiral with the Empire, and managed to survive the Battle of Endor and rose to power shortly thereafter. A native of Coruscant, Trigit commanded the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Implacable in service to Warlord Zsinj. Trigit went rogue after the death of Ysanne Isard at Thyferra, but later joined Zsinj's faction. It was Trigit who was responsible for leaking false information about Gravan Seven to the New Republic, hoping to draw them into a trap. This action was quite successful, resulting the loss of eleven pilots from Talon Squadron, and the decommissioning of the Talons. He wasn't as successful in attacking Folor, for his Morrts discovered the false beacons planted there by the New Republic. This earned him the ire of Zsinj, but he hoped to redeem himself by protecting Zsinj's assets. Zsinj decided that the Implacable would receive the first shipment of TIE Fighters from the Pakkerd Light Transport facility on Ession, and he sent the Implacable there with support from the Night Caller. However, the Night Caller was under the control of the New Republic, which had also commandeered the use of the Blood Nest to take the place of the Red Feathers. As the ancient container ship self-destructed, three full squadrons of Republic X-Wings burst forth from her holds and destroyed the Pakkerd facility before it could launch any TIE Fighters. The Night Caller then bombarded the Implacable with proton torpedoes, destroying her power cells and leaving the Star Destroyer adrift. Trigit ordered an evacuation and set the ship to self-destruct. He got to his personal escape craft, and was about to surrender to Edor Crespin and the New Republic when Myn Donos shot his starship and destroyed it. Trigit was killed in the explosion. (WS)
Trigon One  
a weapons satellite orbiting Annoo, it was controlled by Tig Fromm and his gang during the early years of the New Order. Sise Fromm hated the technology of the ship, but understood that it was an effective method of keeping the natives of Annoo in line. The ship's existence was discovered by Demma Moll and her rebels, but they were unable to destroy it. Later, Demma approached her own daughter, Kea, along with Thall Joben and Jord Dusat, in the hopes that they might help destroy the ship. The two boys and their droids, R2-D2 and C-3PO, were on their way to Boonta to race their speeder, but had to stop on Annoo to repair their hyperdrive. They agreed to help, though their plans were nearly thwarted when Kea and Jord were captured by the Fromms. However, when C-3PO earned the trust of Vlix, the group was able to infiltrate the Trigon One and steal it. (DCAR)
Trihexalon

this Corellian woman was one of the many Jedi Padawans who were stationed at the Almas Academy during the height of the Clone Wars. Tril, as she was known to her friends, was also something of a gearhead, and spent much of her free time working in the Academy's starship hangars. Tril was also good friends with Aayla Secura, and spent as much time as she could with the Twi'lek female when she was on Almas. Her ability to connect with the Force was often fleeting, although Darrus Jeht noted that when she was able to make contact, Tril seemed to be an exceptional conduit for its power. (LFCW)

Over the course of ten years, she had six spearate marriages, and eventually gained enough voting blocks to become a director of the Kibilini Smugglers' Guild. When she learned of Artur Manliss' plans to corner the spice market in the Portmoak Sector, she decided to leave Kibilini. She took roughly half the Guild with her, forming the Anavill Smuggler's Guild and joining the Mandroxan cartel as the primary shipper of Manliss' spice. She actually won the contract from Sehvorah in a heated suvac game. Many rumors flew around that she was planning to marry Artur Manliss, in an effort to secure more control of Mandroxan. (GG11)
Trillili, Chalmer  
this man was the leader of the Scourge, a pirate gang which worked on the outer fringes of Elrood Sector during the height of the New Order. He was at one time a member of the Alliance military, but he deserted when the Alliance's goals clashed with his own selfish morals.

She was paid by the Baron, through R2-D2, to fix a crack in C-3PO's cranial casing. When she finished, Threepio was repaired, although he had an X-shaped patch on sealant on his head. This made him look exactly like the assassin droid, C-3PX, and a series of misadventures ensued on Hosk Station. The situation was resolved, but when the droids returned to Hosk, Trillka helped them reroute an explosion set by Olag Greck so that it blows out the top of the spaceport, rather than downward into the planet. (DRO)
Trillot  
this X'Ting was a noted crimelord on the planet Ord Cestus, during the last years of the Old Republic. Many considered Trillot to be one of the most powerful beings in the capital city of ChikatLik, operating at the nexus between the criminal underworld, the corporate leaders, and the other races of Ord Cestus. Among Trillot's primary contacts was his distant cousin, Caiza Quill, linking Trillot to the powerful Five Families. Originally hired by Cestus Cybernetics as a communications drone, Trillot found a niche in labor relations. He was known as a risk-taker, which helped him gather wealth and influence in a short period of time. He managed to find a source of viptiel that helped keep his sexual phases changes to a minimum, allowing him to operate without the need to reporduce. In order to better interact with his various underworld contacts, Trillot learned a multitude of languages, and spoke many of them fluently. Trillot always tried to play all the angles of a situation, so during the Clone Wars Trillot worked with both the Separatists and the Old Republic. Some two years after the Battle of Geonosis, Trillot was a male who was experiencing the change to female when she agreed to serve as a contact for Obi-Wan Kenobi and Kit Fisto, when the Jedi Masters were dispatched to Ord Cestus to learn the truth behind the Separatist involvement in the JK-series security droid. However, Trillot was intercepted by Asajj Ventress before he could meet with Obi-Wan. The Dark Jedi forced Trillot to remember his deal with Count Dooku, and Trillot immediately agreed to lead the Jedi down a false trail. Ventress, however, wanted to capture the Jedi, and ordered Trillot to provide as much of the truth as Obi-Wan requested. After the Desert Wind terrorists were routed, Trillot and many other inhabitants of ChikatLik felt a brief sigh of relief, until the terrorists severely disabled the Clandes Industrial complex. As Cestians began hording their resources against a possible shortage, gambling and drug revenues quickly dwindled to minimal levels, leaving Trillot with almost nothing. After Asajj Ventress failed to kill Obi-Wan, and the Five Families were smashed, Trillot found herself confronted by the Dark Jedi, who needed to ensure that there were no loose ends to expose Dooku's plot. With a swift slash of her lightsaber, Ventress executed Trillot. (TCD)
Trilon, Incorporated  
this small starship designer produced fewer than a dozen different designs. It also produced small runs each year. Trilon's best designs were in starship hulls, and it licensed the use of components from Arakyd, Kuat Drive Yards, and Sienar Fleet Systems. This allowed Trilon's customers to mix and match their components, and create a custom-built product. During the last years of the Old Republic, Trilon was known for its compact speeders, like the M-31, which were used throughout Galactic City on Coruscant. (EGV, HNN5)

Trin  
in the casino game known as trin sticks, a trin was the ability to form six colored sticks into two separate triangles. At each point of the triangles, the colors at the ends of the stick had to match in order to form a valid trin. (SESB, GMR8)
Trin Sticks  
this was a popular casino game in casinos along the border between the Core Worlds and the Mid Rim, during the early years of the New Republic. Ostensibly a simple game, the object of trin sticks was to create geometric shapes using a combination of colored sticks. Each stick was painted with different colors at each end of the stick: red, blue, green, or yellow. At the start, players drew six sticks from a common pool, holding them so that one end was concealed in their hands. Using the colors as guides, players had to match colors at the corners to form geometric shapes with their sticks. The more complex the shape, the larger the payoff. Betting was based on the number and types of shapes a player could form: a simple triangle was the most common shape, while two distinct triangles - a pattern known as a trin - was the highest possible outcome. With each round, a player could discard up to five sticks, placing them in the common pool and drawing out the same number of sticks. (SESB, SWJ7, GMR8, GCG)
Trin, Gespar  
this man lived on the streets of Tel Bollin, on the planet Endregaad, during the early years of the New Order.

Trindellian Oak  
this deciduous, hardwood tree was native to the planet Trindello. Its strong wood was harvested and exported to many worlds in the Moddell Sector, for use in construction and furniture making. Xenobotanists discovered that individual Trindellian oaks were not free-standing trees, but shoots that grew from a shared root system. Individual oaks were fast-growing trees, reaching enormous heights in just a few decades. When harvested, Trindellian oaks yielded an unusual, dark green wood that was nearly as hard as iron. The scientists who studied the Trindellian oaks warned of the possibility of extinction if the trees were overharvested, but the logging corporations chose to ignore the warnings. The loggers who worked in the forests had to be careful not to disturb the kargul worms that lived at the heart of each oak cluster. (GMR9)
Trindello  
this small moon orbited the only planet in a remote star system that was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. At the center of the system was a white dwarf star.

Trinkatta was contracted to develop and build fifty hyperdrive-equipped droid fighters shortly before the Battle of Naboo. The Jedi Council sent Adi Gallia to investigate who paid Trinkatta to build them, but she disappeared. Much of the facility in Calamar was controlled by droids, with minimal human involvement. When Boll Trinkatta learned that the starfighters were Xi Charran designs commissioned by the Trade Federation, he refused to help and was also imprisoned when Bartokk assassins re-programmed the factory's droids to eliminate any resistance. It was later revealed that Darth Sidious himself had ordered the manufacture of the droid starfighters, as part of a plan to seize control of the plant Brentaal, thereby controlling the Hydian Way and the Perlemian Trade Route.

this swampy planet was the site of a nexus of the energies of the Dark Side of the Force. The fifth planet orbiting the star Yartiv, Trinta was first discovered by the Ithorians, but even the nature-loving Ithorians disliked the planet immediately. They named it for the realms of demons in their mythology and left it alone. More than ninety percent of the planet was covered with fetid swamps, with the remaining area dotted by tiny islands and mudbanks. Many decades later, the nexus flared and engulfed the entire planet after Halagad Ventor arrived on the planet, fleeing the Jedi Purge and Darth Vader. It orbited the red star Yartiv, in a sector of the Outer Rim Territories. Several attempts have been made to colonize the planet in the modern era, but the Dark Side nexus drove the settlers mad before too long. Trinta's gravity was somewhat less than standard, but the difference was often made up by the deep mud which covered most of the planet. (DOE)

He studied a great deal of the history of the Imperial war machine, and became an expert on Imperial military tactics. He grew to become a ruthless leader, cruel and evil in his treatment of others. He was serving as the Supreme Slavelord of the Kessel spice mines when Grand Moff Hissa began to cultivate a friendship with him, in an effort to prepare him as a replacement for Triclops, Palpatine's true mutant son. His trusted droid, Emdee-5, had implanted a cybernetic device in his body that would allow him to created simulated Force lightning, giving the impression that Trioculus was gifted with the Force, even though he had no sensitivity whatsoever. When he tried to bargain with Zorba the Hutt for Princess Leia's life, Zorba captured him and froze him in carbonite. Supreme Prophet Kadann recovered a fake, frozen form of Trioculus and vaporized it, thinking that he had killed the pretender. However, Zorba kept the real Trioculus on board the Zorba Express, where it was recovered by the Grand Moffs near Tatooine. He was about to marry Princess Leia, who had been taken from Zorba along with Trioculus, but Han Solo and Luke Skywalker replaced her with a replica droid. The droid fatally wounded him during the wedding ceremony, and he died shortly after. (GDV, ZHR, MMY, QE, PDS)

Troigs with three or more heads are born, although they were extremely rare. They were also revered and celebrated among their people. (SW1, TPM, IG1, SWDB)
Troiken  
this Outer Rim planet was the homeworld of the Xexto, a species of thin-bodied alien has six appendages that can be used either arms or legs, depending on the needs of the individual creature. The planet itself was in a tide-locked orbit around its sun, making one side of the planet continually bathed in sunlight and radiation while the opposite side was frigid. The Xexto civilization existed on the edge of these two extreme environments, where the landscape was bearable. Much of the landmass found on Troiken was covered with carnivorous plants, fearsome predators, and meat-eating insects, making it virtually uninhabited. (TPM, RAC, IG1, SHW, UANT)

He eventually became one of the Empire's best TIE Fighter pilots, until he was chosen for the raid on Aguarl 3. There, his entire wing of TIE Bombers was destroyed, and only his ability to fly kept him from crashing into the seas. He managed to return to the Star Destroyer Ravagor, where a medical droid waas forced to replace some of his limbs with prosthetic, cyborg limbs. Following this accident, Trommer was assigned as an aide to Governor Grigor on M'haeli, and given orders to keep a watchful eye on the Governor. While on M'haeli, he infiltrated a group of Alliance supporters, and won the favor of the human heiress, Mora. The rebels held Trommer in obvious suspicion until Trommer discovered the Grigor was secretly mining dragite and keeping the profits for himself. Trommer also discovered that Grigor was using H'drachi slaves to mine the dragite. The group of rebels, with the assistance on Leia Organa, were able to destroy the dragite mines and bring Grigor's reign to an end. Trommer then defected to the Alliance. (ROC)

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 the Hobors, a thick mane of hair covers the back of their head. Most of the Troobs 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 while negotiating a trade agreement. 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.

Troos  
this planet was known for the diversity of is arthropodal species. (COG)
Troos Armored Crebik  
this creature lived in the subartic forests of the planet Troos, making its home in the pinnoc trees and preying on other arthropods. What made these creatures unique was their method of hunting prey. Because their shells were extremely thick and heavy, crebiks would simply hang in the trees and wait for their prey to pass below. The crebik then released its grip and fell like a stone, crushing the prey and breaking open its shell to expose the flesh. Crebiks themselves were immune from attack, since no other creature on Troos could penetrate their own thick shell. Crebiks mated by traveling to the nearby body of water and consuming great quantities of it, causing their bodies to expand and exposing vulnerable flesh. A mating dance ensues, and the crebiks release the water at the end of the ritual. Each crebik had eight legs, the foremost pair being tipped with heavy claws and used like arms. A powerful pair of pincers surrounded their mouths. (COG)
Trooshti  
this small, winged species of lizard resembles a yellow-furred dragonfly. They have blue wings and red eyes, and require a wet, damp environment in which to live. A colony of them took up residence in a cave-like water chamber in an abandoned moisture farm on Tatooine, after being transported to the planet as exotic pets. Shortly before the historic Boonta Eve Classic podrace won by Anakin Skywalker, the batteries which provided power to the pumps that kept water flowing to their hidden caves failed. A group of daring trooshti traveled to Mos Espa and stole the battery out of Anakin's podracer. They were caught by Jar Jar Binks and Queen Amidala, who tracked them to the moisture farm. Amidala recognized the problem with their equipment and fixed a reversed polarity problem which had been draining their batteries instead of charging them. The trooshti then returned Anakin's battery. (QA)

this man served the Galactic Scout Corps some forty years before the Battle of Yavin, before joining the Imperial Diplomatic Corps. In his career as a scout, Troper and his partners, Mission Commander Dayla Kev and Lietuenant Hereven, once traveled to an undiscovered jungle world. It was the third-to-last planet on their agenda, but it proved to be the most dangerous. Troper fled in a panic, fearing that his comrades had been killed by a gasnit. Troper later reported the loss of Kev and Hereven, and was temporarily suspended for his lack of valor. A rescue mission failed to locate Kev and Hereven, but it did report back on the ferocity of the gasnits. Troper was re-instated, and he eventually joined the Imperial Diplomatic Corps. Unknown to Troper, however, was the fact that both Kev and Hereven survived the attack of the gasnit. Many years later, Troper was aboard the Galactic Horizon to negotiate a treaty when he discovered that Dayla Kev had been plotting to exact revenge against him. Only his foresight in hiring a team of freelance mercenaries to be his bodyguards saved him from her attacks. Troper tried to explain to her that his flight from the jungle planet haunted him nearly every day, but she refused to believe him. However, Troper managed to escape unharmed while Dayla and her son, Hereven, were taken into custody. (GMR6)

(ND)
Tropis, Adarian  
a former legislator, Adarian and a group of idealistic colonists left Salliche about 250 years before the Galactic Civil War. They left in search of their own world, being disaffected by the corruption and ineffective bureaucracy, and eventually settled on Varonat. The colonists instituted an agrarian lifestyle, which they felt was threatened by the slime trails left by the Morodin. However, the Morodins found a way to communicate with the colonists, and revealed the value of the nutrient-rich slime. (SWJ1, SWJ13)

Troujow, Hasti  
a short, slender, pale girl with red hair, Hasti and her sister Lanni were miners on the planet Dellalt, working for J'uoch and R'all during the early years of the New Order. When Lanni discovered the log-recorder from the Queen of Ranroon, she was killed by J'uoch. Hasti managed to escape, and found shelter with her old friend, Alexsandr Badure. Together, they enlisted the aid of Skynx and Han Solo in finding the Queen of Ranroon and avenging Lanni's death. Once they arrived on Dellalt, Hasti tried to recover the log-recorder from its resting place in a safe-deposit box kept by the Dellaltian Bank and Currency Exchange, but the box was protected by a voice-recognition system. The local Dellaltians mistook Hasti for her sister, and revealed that Lanni had made a trek deep into the mountains. The group trudged their way into the mountains, and eventually discovered the existence of the Survivors. It was among the Survivors that Hasti recognized a clerk from the bank, and realized that he was a Survivor. The man revealed that he had made up the need for a voice-print on Hasti, in order to recover the log-recorder for himself, so that he could return it to the Survivors. Hasti had the last laugh, however, when she confronted the man after the Guardian Corps was destroyed. It was by interrogating the Survivors that Hasti and her group learned that the Queen of Ranroon had been dismantled, and her cargo was actually in the deepest vaults of the Dellaltian Bank. Although she was dismayed to find that the "treasure" of the Queen of Ranroon contained little more than common raw materials and a collection of ancient data tapes, Hasti was more than happy to accept a job as a transport agent for Skynx and his university. (HSL)
Troujow, Lanni  
this young woman was Hasti's sister, and their resemblance to each other was quite uncanny. They were both working in the Dellaltian mines during the early years of the New Order, slaving away for J'uoch and R'all, when Lanni discovered the log-recorder from the Queen of Ranroon. Lanni was a fair pilot, having inherited her father's Pilot's Guild book, and was able to make the transport runs for the mining operation. Lanni began asking discreet questions about the legendary ship, but her inquiries reached the ears of J'uoch and R'all, who wanted to claim the starship for themselves. They ordered Lanni killed and the log-recorder stolen, but their people only succeeded in killing Lanni, who had alerted her sister of the recorder's existence before she hid it in a lock-box. (HSL)

Troxar  
this planet was one of many that contemplated secession from the Old Republic, during the height of the Clone Wars. Factions of support for both the Republic and the Separatists fought an intense civil war, although the planet's leaders supported Count Dooku and the Separatists. The leadership had planned to surrender to the Republic, in hopes of having the Republic's forces withdraw from the planet. Then, in a smashing coup, a government-funded rebellion would storm the remaining Republic forces and claim the planet for the Separatists. While Dooku contemplated the usefulness of such a maneuver, Darth Sidious forbade it. Sidious wanted the fighting to continue on Troxar, in an effort to chew up more clone troopers. (YDR)

Tru Veld  
this near-human Teevan youth was training to become a Jedi Knight, on the planet Coruscant, during the same period that Anakin Skywalker was a Padawan. A rubbery-limbed being with silvery eyes, Tru became one of Anakin's best friends at the Jedi Temple, especially after Anakin discovered that Tru's technical skills complimented his own. At the time, Tru was being trained by Ry-Gaul, and he was known for this photographic memory. Tru supported Anakin's plans during their participation in the evacuation of Radnor, some five years after the Battle of Naboo, further deepending their friendship. Their friendship continued to grow over the following years, although Anakin continued to become more emotional and confrontational. Tru failed to understand his friend's competition with Ferus Olin, and began to find Anakin's continual anger toward the other apprentice contrary to the teachings of the Jedi Order. When the Padawans, along with Darra Thel-Tanis and their Masters, were dispatched to Korriban to apprehend Grant Omega, Tru finally realized that Anakin might not be the best friend for him. Anakin continually baited Ferus, and refused to cooperate with the other Padawan. Tru understood that Ferus - not Anakin - had been chosen for early promotion to Jedi Knight, but he felt that Anakin should have been more supportive and less angry. Tru was injured in a fight on Korriban, and his lightsaber was badly damaged in the fighting. Rather than turning to Anakin, who had previously repaired the weapon, Tru decided to ask Ferus for help. Ferus didn't turn him in for the damage, as Tru had expected, but instead helped repair the weapon so that Tru could continue fighting. The repairs, however, reversed the fixes Anakin had done, and caused the lightsaber to drain power at a faster rate. Thus, as the Jedi team pursued Granta Omega in the Valley of the Dark Lords, Tru found himself weaponless. In another fight, he was unable to protect Darra, who took several blasts in the chest and later died from her wounds. Although the mission was ultimately successful, both Tru and Ferus were dismayed by Darra's death. Upon returning to Coruscant, Ferus was censured for his actions and chose to leave the Jedi Order. Rather than turning to Anakin, Tru remained loyal to Ferus, who had helped him in a time of great need. Unfortunately for the Jedi, Tru was among the many Jedi who were killed during the Clone Wars.

He hoped to arm the Twi'leks and allow them to resist the slavers who continually raided their planet. As he learned more about the politics of Kala'uun, he found that Ku'amar - his own cousin - had been secretly plotting to take control of the city for himself. However, despite his pleas, Tru'eb was outcast and was sold into slavery to Big Quince. However, Quince used Tru'eb more as a personal servant than a slave. Tru'eb, for all his loyalty to Big Quince, continually schemed to escape. His plans were furthere when he met a yougn slavefirl named Platt Okeefe. They stole Quince's personal shuttle and fled. Platt later paid Tru'eb for his help in escaping from Big Quince, and he used the money to buy the Luudrian Star. Both Tru'eb and Platt were working on Zelos II, and had hired Dirk Harkness to help, when they discovered the hidden Imperial garrison there. They tipped the New Republic to the garrison's location, but Harkness went in to ensure the base was destroyed. He was captured in the attempt, and the Republic's forces were virtually wiped out. Platt and Tru'eb eventually rescued Harkness, since both believed he was a good man, and also rescued Jai Raventhorn. (SWJ8, TFNR, CRO, PSPG)

the primary planet in the Trulalis System, Trulalis was also the least prosperous. It was removed from the worlds of Issor and Cadezia by distance, and was regarded as low-tech by the Issori. The Issori banned middle- and high-technology from the planet, and the natives have more or less accepted the roles of farmers and workers. It is covered with rich, green forests, wide grasslands, and oceans. Although the native Issori have kept the planet low-tech, many remember its thriving days as a fine liberal arts education center during the Old Republic. The average day on Trulalis lasts 23 standard hours, while its year lasts 310 local days. (SWJ4, TFE, SWJ8)

Trunks was easily distinguished from other Ortolans by his tattoos, which covered his short fur in geometric patterns of purple, red, and green. As an individual, Trunks took pleasure in theft, vandalism, and torturing new gang members, the latter activity almost always taking place in the Gartro Rookery. (CCW)
Trunsk  
this large, humanoid race of beings was known for their fighting ability and short tempers. Native to the planet Trunska, the Trunsks adapted to life on the cold, thin-atmosphered planet by evolving cave-like nostrils and large ears. Their ancestors were clawed predators, but the Trunsks eventually developed sentience and began using their hands to form and use tools. Their early civilization was based on military strength and power, until Tyl the Deplorable used his military genius to turn his army into a police force and conquered their homeworld. This stopped the intense wars which raged between the clans, freeing up a great amount of funds with which they began developin technology. Trunsks soon developed their own hyperdrive, but their ability to travel the galaxy was cut short when Emperor Palpatine instituted the New Order. Declared a slave species, the Trusnks were the made the centerpieces of many intergalactic circuses and gladiator fighting rings, despite the fact that they are intelligent and independent. Trunsks are covered with short, stiff fur, and two tusks protrude from their lower jaws. Like Wookiees, Trunsks have retractable claws on their hands and feet. (SWJ3, TFE, SWJ13)

Trusty Trikker  
this elderly Quarren owned and operated Trusty Trikker's Guns & Ammo, a small weapons dealership located in the settlement of Bartyn's Landing, on the planet Lamaredd, during the years surrounding the Battle of Naboo. Trikker was easily distinguished by the fact that he was missing one eye, the result of a shootout many years before. The loss of his eye forced Trikker to retire from the outlaw trade, but he never lost his love of weapons. Thus, he established the store on Lamaredd to help the many beings who hunted or fished in the oceans of his homeworld. (GMR7)
Trusty Trikker's Guns & Ammo  
this weapons dealership was established by the Quarren known as Trusty Trikker on the planet Lamaredd. If a device was designed to hurt something, chances were good it could be found there. (GMR7)
Truth For Cularin  
this documentary-producing group rose to public prominence in the Cularin System, during the last years of the Old Republic. Their documentaries described the troubles that had been experienced by the Cularin System over the years, and offered commentary and often wild speculation on why certain events occurred and what might have been done about them. Many beings within the Cularin System soon began to question TFC's motives, for their documentaries often served to stir up more trouble than the problems they depicted. One of their first documentaries on the Believers, a piece that openly questioned how a group of Sith devotees could have established a base on Almas without the Jedi noticing. The documentary went on to speculate that the Believers were actually the outcasts from the Jedi Academy on Almas, and that they were funded by Senator Lavira Wren to cause trouble in the Cularin System, in order to gain additional support and funding from the Galactic Senate. (LFCW)
Truth, The  
see True Way (SWI64)
Truthful Toryn  
this Duros owned a used starship lot on the planet Tralus during the early years of the New Order. Han Solo tried to sell the Talisman to Toryn, who was aware of the fact that the ship was listed as stolen. He could only offer Han a scrap-metal price for the ship, since it was stolen property, but offered to give a little more if Han would tell him a story. Han was in a hurry, and passed on the story, but took the scrap price in cash. Five years later, after Han was dishonorably discharged from the Imperial armed forces for rescuing Chewbacca, Toryn gave the young man a job as a pilot and repairman. (TPS, THG)
Truuine  
this world, the only planet in the Truuine System, was used as a training site by the ancient Jedi Master Mroon Jassa, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. (TOJC)

this YT-2400 freighter was owned and operated by Kaj Nedmak. Kaj and his partner, Celia Durasha, were forced to crashland the ship on Ord Mantell, after being intercepted by agents sent by Bwahl the Hutt to recover Kaj. The Tryan Kajme was destroyed in the crash. (SWJ14)
Tryast  
this temperate world was the fifth planet in the Empress Teta System, and was orbited by a single moon. (PH)
Tryll, Augustus  
this man, distinguished by his large, beak-like nose and well-oiled, black hair, proposed a deal with Obi-Wan Kenobi during the years following the Clone Wars. Perhaps best known for his dealings in slavery, political betrayals, and stolen property, Tryll was initially dismissed by Kenobi. When the luxury liner was attacked by the Merson Slavers, many of ths ship's passengers accused Tryll of being the source of the signal that indicated the ship's presence in the Merson Asteroid Belt. When Kenobi tried to assume Tryll was innocent until proven guilty, severl passengers remembered their earlier conversation, and argued that they were in the plot together. Before the crowd could attack themboth, Obi-Wan was able to discover that the signal's source was in a fermentation device. He disabled it with his lightsaber, and saved himself and Tryll from any harm. (MC24)
Tryna Chime  
this small, arrowhead-shaped sheet of metal was fitted into a ring and used as a musical instrument. The Tryna chime was often the topmost piece of percussion used on a drumheller harp. (VD)
Trynic  
this Devaronian tramp freighter captain has piercing red eyes, a trait which generally unnerves his associates. He was long considered one of the best tramp pilots in the Minos Cluster, because of his shrewd business sense and ability to quickly assess a situation's profit potential. He genuinely loves the solitude of space travel, even with the wanderlust most Devaronian males feel. His ship, the converted YT-1300 known as the Solar Flare, has been modified to accept much larger cargoes than a stock freighter. Trynic was known throughout the Cluster as "The Devil," a nod to his appearance as well as an acknowledgement of his business skills. (GG6)
Trynn, Jion  
this Imperial Admiral was in command of the fleet which was dispatched to quell the rebellious uprisings on Gerrard V, shortly before the Battle of Yavin. At his command were the Star Destroyers Adjudicator and Relentless. (SWJ3)
Trypanid  
this anti-toxin was used to cure the effects of many standard, Imperial interrogation drugs, like Xebonica. (SWJ10)
TS-138  
the cell block from which Han Solo and Luke Skywaler claim they are transferring Chewbacca, when they try to rescue Princess Leia. This is another veiled reference to George Lucas' film, THX-1138. (SWN)
TS3519  
issued by Grand Admiral Thrawn during the search for Han Solo and Leia Organa Solo on Tatooine, some four years after the Battle of Endor, directive TS3519 prohibited the killing of any individual targetted for capture. The killing of an individual, whether accidental or not, would result in the loss of a week's liberty and a month's wages for the entire platoon. These fines were cumulative, in those situations where more than one individual was wanted for questioning. However, directive TS3519 also stated that, if the only way to stop the individual from escaping was to kill them, then they must be killed no matter what the consequences to the platoon. Should the targetted individual escape, the platoon would be denied liberty for one year, and forfeit all pay for the duration of their service. The individual trooper who allowed the target to escape would be tried and executed for crimes against the Empire. (TG)

Tsaa Qalu  
this Yuuzhan Vong warrior was in command of the forces which protected the aliens' base on Wayland, some 28 years after the Battle of Endor. A warrior of the Nuun, Tsaa Qalu chafed at the inexperienced forces he was provided to guard the Mount Tantiss ruins, but kept his own skills razor-sharp. Rather than capture Klin-Fa Gi and Uldir Lochett, Tsaa Qalu chose to let them escape the planet, in hopes of pursuing them into space and locating the hidden Jedi base. The Shapers on Wayland ordered Tsaa Qalu to take the Throat Slasher and hunt down the infidels, and he nearly succeeded. However, a side mission was to ensure that Bey Gandan reached Thyferra in order to deliver the virus which would destroy the alazhi trees. Tsaa Qalu played his game to perfection, despite the misgivings of his crew, and managed to get Bey to Thyferra despite the efforts of the Dug, Leaft. However, Leaft had decided that the Yuuzhan Vong were not going to let him live, so he fought back against Tsaa Qalu and his crew. The Dug stole a coralskipper and used the cognition hood in the craft to force the Throat Slasher to crash into Thyferra. Tsaa Qalu and his entire crew were killed in the explosion. (SWI62, SWI64)
Tsaak Vootuh  
this Yuuzhan Vong Commander was in charge of the small fleet which was dispatched to Yavin 4 to capture the students who were training at the Jedi praxeum. Tsaak Vootuh was disappointed to find that the Peace Brigade had reached the system first, and had bungled their own capture attempt. He was then forced to expose Mezhan Kwaad and her heretical work on Tahiri Veila, after having gained the confidence of Nen Yim through his spy, Tsun Qel. Unfortunately for Tsaak Vootuh, he was killed when Tahiri managed to escape from the Shapers. Tsaak Vootuh's actions, however, became the stuff of legend to the many Shamed Ones who struggled to find their place in the new Yuuzhan Vong society. Mezhan Kwaad's heresies proved to the Shamed Ones that the Jedi Knights were not the evil creatures they were made out to be. Stories of how Tahiri survived her torture began to circulate among the Shamed Ones, starting an underground cult that worshipped the Jedi Knights, not the old Yuuzhan Vong gods. (EVC, FH1)
Tsaelke  
the graceful, long-necked cetaceans of Chad III's deep oceans. They are large beasts, measuring up to 12 meters in length and four meters in width, and are naturally spirited and curious. The natives of Chad have learned to use them as mounts, and can be seen riding tsaelke as they herd bildogs and proop. One unusual feature of these creatures is their hand-like flippers, which have a semi-opposable thumb that can be used to manipulate large objects. Individuals can be easily identified by their brown markings which are patterns of spots, stripes, and rings. Callista had them carved into the handle of her lightsaber, for her family used to migrate the with herds to support its ranch. (COJ, SWJ10)
Tsaisi  
this snake-like creature was genetically created by the Yuuzhan Vong. Shorter and narrower than an amphistaff, the tsaisi was worn coiled around the arm as a sign of a Yuuzhan Vong's position within the military. The tsaisi was of the same species as the amphistaff, but was much more delicate and more difficult to wield in battle. That made its appearance very rare, and the wearer was a warrior of incredible skill in both battle and command. (DTO)
Tsall, Writ  
this mercenary found himself on the planet Glova, after a series of embarassing misadventures. He sold his services as a hired gun and sharpshooter to the various criminal elements on the planet. (POC)
TS-Arach  
this was the brand name of MerenData's pest control droid. The TS-Arach was spider-like in shape, with four long legs and a central body supporting a snake-like head. It was designed to operate in agricultural environments, killing the pests which could destroy crops. The TS-Arach was "armed" with pesticide sprayers, and had a number of lifeform sensors. It was also equipped with a database of insect and rodent lifeforms, in order to identify potential pests. (FTD)
Tsavong Lah  
this Yuuzhan Vong was the Warmaster in command of the forces led by Shedao Shai which invaded the galaxy. Because of his bravery in battle and his ability to lead others, Tsavong Lah had undergone the ritual of escalation countless times. His body, a mixture of true flesh and surge-coral implants, closely resembled that of the deity Yun-Yammka, the Yuuzhan Vong god of war. His body armor was actually grown from his flesh, with individual scales imbedded in his skin. The scales were actually living creations, and had attached themselves to his bones and distorted his limbs to a degree. He hated the fact that Nom Anor was given so much leeway by the Supreme Overlord, Shimmra, but agreed that the Jedi needed to be removed in order to take control of the galaxy. During the attack on Duro, Tsavong Lah managed to capture Leia Organa-Solo, and planned to use her as his first Jedi subject. However, Randa the Hutt sacrificed himself in order to help Leia escape, and Tsavong Lah was nearly killed in battle with Leia and her son, Jacen. Ultimately, the Warmaster left Duro without a Jedi, and without the wealth of sacrificial refugees he had hoped to obtain. In the wake of the Battle of Duro, 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. He replaced the foot he lost in battle with Jacen, setting the stump with a biologically recreated vua'sa foot, further enhancing his stature among the Yuuzhan Vong. In order to ensure a victory at Coruscant and the capture of Jaina and Jacen Solo, Tsavong Lah later sacrificed his arm, but this time the implant did not take. It continued to become infected and fester, despite the taking of Coruscant and the capture of Jacen Solo. Many among the Yuuzhan Vong power structure feared that Tsavong Lah's time as Warmaster had come to an end, and even Viqi Shesh used the apparent failure of the graft to plant seeds of doubt and suspicion in he Warmaster's mind. It was Nen Yim who discovered that the radank claw was growing, and seemingly consuming the Warmaster as it developed. In order to stem the tide of the battle, the Warmaster called upon his father, Czulkang Lah, to assist in recapturing the planet Borleias and destroying the small group of New Republic forces there. The struggle for Borleias dragged on much longer than anticipated, with the Republic's forces using unanticipated techniques to defeat the Yuuzhan Vong. Tsavong Lah began rooting out the possible priests who were undermining his efforts, only to find that his real nemesis was the intelligence being gathered by Nom Anor. This only made the division between the two that much larger, and culminated in the Yuuzhan Vong's glaring defeat in the Battle of Ebaq. As the battle dragged on and more Yuuzhan Vong ships were destroyed, Tsavong Lah ordered an assault on the Jedi Knights on Ebaq 9. He nearly destroyed the Solo twins and many other Jedi, but Jaina was able to defeat him in combat. She stabbed Tsavong Lah in the throat with her lightsaber, killing one of the Yuuzhan Vong's most noted leaders and precipitating the downfall of their invasion. (DTR, JE, BP, EVR, DJ, EL1, EL2, DW)
Tsayv  
this surname was common among the Sullustan race, and meant "architect" in the Sullustan language. (GCG)
Tschel  
a Lieutenant in the Imperial Navy, Tschel served under Captain Pellaeon aboard the Chimaera during the reign of Grand Admiral Thrawn, some five years after the Battle of Endor. At the time, Tschel was one of the many inexperienced officers serving under Captain Pellaeon, as well as one of the most easily excited. After Thrawn's death, Tschel continued to serve Pellaeon, rising in rank a Major and serving as Pellaeon's chief bridge officer during Pellaeon' struggle with Moff Disra. (HTTE, DFR, SOP)
Tseeach

Tser, Wolam  
this man was a noted holo-documentarian who had chronicled the entire political lifecycle of the New Republic. He had collected information dating from the birth of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, and his political acumen was rivaled only by his ability to capture important events on film. During the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Tser produced the popular holodocumentary, The Battle of Borleias, which showed the valiant and heroic efforts of Wedge Antilles and the forces which defended Borleias in the wake of the Battle of Coruscant. (EL1, DW)
T-series Protocol Droid  
this series of protocol droids was created by the Empire. (SH)
Tshindral III  
this airless, lifeless planetoid was known as the location of Gateway Space Station. Tshidral III had a day which lasted 25 standard hours, and its year took up 300 local days. What little atmosphere the planetoid did retain was laden with toxins and corrosive elements which could erode the hull of a small freighter in less than a local day. No one was sure what sort of holocaust destroyed the planet, although there was no end to speculation among the patrons of the Falling Star Saloon. (WSV)
Tsi  
this was the native language of the Mrlssti. (PGT)
Tsian  
this woman was a princess from the planet Old Mankoo, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. Like most of the royalty from the planet, Princess Tsian struggled to maintain her wealthy lifestyle in the wake of a devastating economic disaster. When her family's claim to the throne was overthrown, she decided to enhance her standing by becoming an assassin for hire. The Senate Guard linked Princess Tsian to the death of Senator Jheramahd Greyshade when a Psicom 126 droid interface was discovered inside the verbobrain of Senator Greyshade's THX-series servant droid. Only one cybernetic interface was purchased with the Psicom unit, and it was registered to Princess Tsian. Her role in Greyshade's death was revealed when she was dispatched to eliminate his successor, his own cousin Simon Greyshade. She pretended to have romantic feelings for Simon, then lured him out onto a balcony. Tsian then called for her assassin droids to attack them. Only the quick intervention of Sagoro Autem and Isaru Omin, who subdued Princess Tsian and broke her link to the droids, saved Greyshade's life. It was later revealed that she had been hired by Venco Autem to eliminate Greyshade, and that she was the assassin who killed Jheramahd as well. Venco arranged to have Tsian released from prison, in return for her commitment to help him eliminate Greyshade. The feint nearly worked, but the detective work of the Jedi Knights and the Senate Guard revealed the plans before they could come to fruition. Princess Tsian was again imprisoned and held for questioning. (RHD)
Tsii dau poonsi  
this Yuuzhan Vong command translated into Basic as, "the mouth, cause it to close." It was used to close the access ramp to a Yuuzhan Vong starship. (EVC)
Tsik Vai  
this was the name given to the small, skyhopper-like ground vehicles which were created by the Yuuzhan Vong. Like all Yuuzhan Vong vehicles, the tsik vai were grown, rather than built. Each tsik vai was equipped with a collection of whiplike tentacles that were used to capture a target or prey. In shape, the tsik vai resembled a huge seabird or flat searay, with dovin basals studding its body to give it life and propulsion. The neck sac of a tsik vai could be distended to reveal bright red flesh, and was used to signal other craft in the vicinity. The wings of this craft were flexible, and it "breathed" through a set of gills on its flanks, which whistled as it moved through the air. The average length of these vessels was about nine meters, and they required a pilot to operate. (EVC, UF, NJOSB)
Tsil  
this is the word used to describe the crystalline rock formations found on the planet Nam Chorios. Those tsil formed from Spook crystals were acutally sentient spires of rock. The tsils were the source of Force-sensitivity among the settlers on the planet, but their ability to channel electricity earned them the notice of Loronar Corporation. Loronar harvested tsil crystals for use in their Centrally Controlled Independent Replicant (CCIR) technology. When it was discovered that the tsils were actually sentient, Loronar was severely reprimanded by the New Republic, and those CCIR devices which were already in use had to be recovered in order for the tsils to be replaced with inorganic crystals. (POT, EGA)
Tsillin  
this was a common name among Quarren females. It meant "sad-eyed". (GCG)
Tsillin Wel  
this female Quarren served as a New Republic Intelligence agent whose job was to pore through Imperial expenditure records to locate "black holes." These "black holes" were expenses that couldn't be explained, and might possibly lead to anti-Alliance operations that could still exist. Among the things she searched for was evidence that Tycho Celchu had been on the Imperial payroll. In this capacity, she served as a material witness in Celchu's trial, and detailed that credits had been deposited into accounts for Celchu, but that there was no evidence that he was aware of them. (KT)
Tsilor River  
located on the planet New Plympto, this river formed one of the boundaries of the city of Phemiss. (CCW)
Tsinimal  
this alien race subjugated the planet of Langhesa nearly 100 years before the Battle of Naboo, enslaving the native Langhesi. The Tsinimals regarded the Langhesi skills in genetic manipulation to be an affront to their gods, and sought to wipe them out. Many xenoarchaeologists note that mass-murder and galactic conquest did not bother the gods. (RP)
Tsmeu-6  
this personal wheel bike was produced by the Z-Gomot Ternbuell Guppat Corporation during the final years of the Old Republic. Measuring 2.5 meters in diameter, the Tsmeu-6 was originally designed as a military vehicle, and was known as the preferred ground vehicle of General Grievous during the Clone Wars. The central ring of the bike was padded for the comfort of the rider, and housed a pair of frictionless, magnetic rails that supported two massive chains that propelled the outer drive rings. These outer rings were studded with large claws that could dig into the rockiest of terrain for traction and stability, or could fold inward to allow the wheel bike to approach speeds of 330 kilometers per hour. The rider sat just outside of the rings, so that they had a clear view of the road. Opposite the rider was the main weapons emplacement, which could accommodate a double laser cannon. At the bottom of the vehicle were a pair of running boards that folded up when the vehicle was in motion. When stopped, or when necessary to move over rough terrain, each running board folded down to expose two clawed legs. These legs held the wheel bike upright when parked, or could be used to move the wheel bike over obstacles. With these legs extended, the Tsmeu-6 stood nearly four meters tall. (X3, SWDB)
Tso'asu  
this was a crawling creature native to the Yuuzhan Vong homeworld. (EVC)
Tsore  
this Gallofree medium transport was used by the Alliance to transport bacta during the Galactic Civil War. (XWA)
Tsorria  
one of the two permanent polar ice caps located on Stroiketcy, Tsorria was named for the word "lower" used by its discoverers. (GG2)
Tsoss Beacon  
an abandoned space station located in the Deep Core, the station was built by droids and suicide teams on a barren planetoid. The station was created as an automated beacon for ships moving through the Core. The station fell into disrepair around the time of the Battle of Yavin, and was abandoned. It was here that Admiral Daala convened a meeting of the surviving Imperial warlords following the destruction of the Eye of Palpatine. (DS, PH)
Tssolok  
see T'ssolok (SWGAL)
T'ssolok  
this intense, Twi'leki liquor was bottled in a sculpted decanter. Thaddeus Ross often drank a bottle of this liquor whenever he felt that hislife couldn't get any worse. Some beings worried that the taste of the liqour would be awful, but it was actually the aftertaste the floored most drinkers. (SWJ15)
TS-Titan  
this immense beam drill system was developed by Karflo Corporation for used in heavy-duty applications like building and starship construction. (EGW)
Tsui Choi  
this small, blue humanoid (who resembled an Aleena) was a Jedi Master, and a contemporary of Mace Windu and Qui-Gon Jinn. Tsui Choi was known as a skilled pilot, and could make a capital ship do things reserved for starfighters. He and his student, Theen Fida, were part of a team dispatched to the planet Yitheeth, in an effort to locate the Yinchorri command center. Master Choi was disheartened when Theen Fida was killed on Yinchorr while guarding their starship, but steeled himself for the work to come. Master later caught Vilmarh Grahrk's cousin, before the Devaronian could steal the ship. Years later, Master Choi was part of the force dispatched by the Old Republic to the planet Drongar, during the height of the Clone Wars. The VCD987 was attacked by Separatist forces and boarded, with the Separatist forces led by Count Dooku himself. Dooku let the Jedi return to Coruscant, but ordered his forces to eliminate any clone troopers aboard the ship. He also took a place on the Jedi Council, serving until the Jedi were eliminated in the wake of the First Battle of Coruscant and the Jedi Purge. (AOW, J4, OWS)
Tsukkian Water Freighter  
this kind of starship was designed to carry huge cargoes of water to desert planets and other water-starved worlds, for purposes of terra-forming and in times of drought. During the height of the New Order, these ships were considered clunky and out-of-date, but nonetheless found usage among mercenary and pirate fleets because of their durability. (SWCP)
Tsun Qel  
this Yuuzhan Vong Shaper claimed to have been sent to assist Nen Yim by Mezhan Kwaad herself. In reality, Tsun was a spy who had been sent to Yavin 4 to ensure that no heretical activity was taking place during the examination of Tahiri Veila. He had been given a complete history of Nen Yim's activities and suspected heresies, in order to gain her confidence without alerting her to his true motives. (EVC)
T'surr  
this desert planet, located in the Expansion Region, was a cold world that was continually swept by winds and storms. T'surr orbited at a large distance from its sun, so very little light and heat reached the planet. The native sentient species, also known as the T'surr, as well as other creatures found on the planet, evolved to survive in these harsh conditions. The planet's gravity was considered higher than normal, and many humanoid races considered the gravity too oppressive. (WOTC, UANT)
T'surr  
little was known about this alien race, which was native to the planet T'surr in the Expansion Region. Violent and ruthless, the T'surr were large beings with blue, marble-like skin and a heavily-muscled, humanoid frame. A number of horns crowned their heads, and large ears gave them excellent hearing. Four red eyes sat above a wide mouth which was filled with razor-sharp teeth. As a race, the T'surr considered any species weaker than they were to be merely chattel, and had no qualms about enslaving "lesser species". The male T'surr ruled their homeworld, and often traveled away from T'surr as slavers and pirates. Females are almost never seen, and the males often describe them as small and feeble. From each of the T'surr's elbows there were two forearms: a heavily-muscled primary arm and a thin, clawed secondary arm. Like most creatures that evolved on T'surr, the average T'surr had excellent vision in low-light conditions. (WOTC, UANT)
T'surrese  
this was the native language of the T'surr race. (WOTC, UANT)
Tsyk  
this planet is the homeworld of the Tsyklen race. (THG)
Tsyklen  
this round, hairless race is native to the planet Tsyk. They have large eyes, pale skin and slender features. Each hand is studded with seven fingers and two opposable thumbs. (THG)
Tsyr  
this Kajain'sa'Nikto and his son, Bok, were two of the last members of the Morgukai Warriors. Tsyr himself was the former comrade of Ma'kis'shaalas, who abandoned the Morgukai to become a Jedi Knight. It was Ma'kis'shaalas who scarred much of Tsyr's face, during a duel in which both Nikto fought hard. Tsyr ultimately lost his footing in the Skulljaw Grottoes and fell, but was spared by Ma'kis'shaalas. During the years following the Battle of Naboo, they were mercenaries who used cortosis-based armor and weapons to fight against the Jedi Knights. They were hired by Ro Fenn, with the assistance of Vilmahr Grahrk, to kidnap Nat Secura in an effort to force Lon Secura into keeping Ro Fenn alive. The Nikto were also under the employ of Kh'aris Fenn, who was working to overturn his father's leadership and take control of Ryloth. As the more experienced warrior of the pair, Tsyr was continually having to overcome Bok's impulsive behaviors to realize their goals. They returned to Kintan with their captives, in an effort to draw the Jedi Knights searching for Nat Secura and Master Tholme away from Ryloth. Tsyr refused to help his son when Bok was trapped on the Fire River, after Bok's impulsive behavior allowed Aayla Secura and Quinlan Vos to escape. He was surprised, as well as proud, when Bok survived the lava and returned to his side. When the two Morgukai cornered the Jedi inside Fortress Kh'aris, Tsyr was beheaded in combat with Quinlan Vos. (ROP, WOTC, GORW)
T'Syriel  
this humanoid race, native to the planet Shiva IV, was a slightly canine appearance. From each temple on their skulls, a think ridge of bone extended backward to the base of their neck. There were twelve distinct tribes of T'Syriel found on the planet, all led by an individual known as the Demarch. The skin of a T'Syriel was a deep golden color, which set them apart from their dark-skinned human counterparts. There were twelve distinct tribes of T'Syriel, and for many generations they existed separately. However, as struggles between human and T'Syriel became more heated, they united to form the Twelve Tribes. (MC53)
TT-32  
this droid was among the many automatons owned by Tien Tubb, in his workshop on Nar Shaddaa, during the years following the Jedi Civil War. It was the thirty-second droid in its series, a fact that the droid was very proud of. When The Exile arrived on Nar Shaddaa to investigate the possibility that Jedi Master Zez-Kai Ell was on the moon, TT-32 paid him to recover IT-31 from Kodin, in order to preserve the shield technology plans stored in its memory banks. (KOTOR2)
TT-4  
this model of electrobinoculars was manufactured by Neuro-Saav, and contained an internal holographic recording system. This allowed the TT-4 to record and play back up to three hours' worth of images.

TT-40  
this library droid was produced by TelBrinTel for use in retrieiving information. It was given little data storage capacity, being designed to provide information on a by-request basis. The TT-40 was equipped with a wide, repulsorengine base that supported a switchboard assembly. The TT-40 used a TelBrinTel proprietary interface, and stored incoming data on a trio of data wheels which spun as the droid worked.

TT-8L  
known as the Tattletale droid, this droid was produced by Serv-O-Droid as a vestibule snoop for the rich and reclusive beings of the galaxy. The TT-8Ls round eye was attached to a segmented arm that could extend or retract from its compartment, and could flex into a number of configurations to get the best view possible. TT-8L droids were programmed as door greeters, communicating with new arrivals and then alerting the residents that someone has come to see them. Because of the popularity of the TT-8L, Serv-O-Droid produced a number of variations, including the TT-8L/XSS and the TT-8L/Y7. (POT, EGD)
TT-8L/XSS  
this variant on the TT-8L droid was produced by Serv-O-Droid from antiqued brass. Unlike the standard TT-8L, the XSS model was designed to be an ornate observation device. Its brass finish was inlaid with silver adronments and intricate scrollwork, and its snakelike body was mounted on a heavy post which was bolted to the floor. Emperor Palpatine used a number of XSS models in his residences, to monitor who came to visit. (EGD)
TT-8L/Y7  
this version of Serv-O-Droid's TT-8L droid was the least expensive of its variants, lacking a segmented body. Instead, the Y7 was simply the observation eye attached to a single-jointed arm, and it was given scanning capabilities. The Y7 was targetted for sale to the more paranoid members of galactic society, including crimelords and black marketeers, who wanted to know who was calling as well as whether or not they were armed. In keeping with the target audience, Serv-O-Droid gave the Y7 model a confrontational personality that could be altered to its owner's wishes. Jabba the Hutt had a Y7 model installed at this palace on Tatooine. (EGD)
TT8L-Y7

TTS-15  
manufactured by Industrial Automaton, this droid was designed to teach a variety of skills. Marketed as an education and tutorial droid, the TTS-15 could instruct an organic being in subjects ranging from advanced mathematics to galactic history.

During the height of the New Order, a lower-priced version of the TTS-15 was produced for mass-market sales. (FTD)
TTT-54  
this was one of SoroSuub's first military contributions to the Alliance to Restore the Republic, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. The TTT-54, known as a Thumper, was a grenade launcher that required a great deal of effort to move into position. Unlike weapons like the Merr-Sonn MobileMortar-3, the TTT-54 did not have a built-oin repulsorlift engine. The TTT-54 made up for this by allowing a wide variety of projectiles to be fired, depending on how the weapon was programmed. (AEG)

Master Zuth cautioned her that she was forgetting that each being had their own destiny, along with their physical form. When an assassination attempt was made on several galactic Senators on Coruscant, Master Zuth and Tu'ala were the only Jedi on the scene.

The business made Tuden rich, and he never forgot Pavan's help. When Pavan was in trouble trying to escape Darth Maul, Tuden arranged for a driver to pick of Pavan and his droid, I-5YQ. Tuden also arranged for Pavan to obtain an ARE Thixian Seven, which Pavan planned to use to finish his battle with Maul. Before he left, though, Pavan turned control of I-5YQ over to Tuden so that the information the droid contained could be brought to the attention of the Jedi Knights. The Sakiyan was both honored and pleased, because he had been coveting the droid for some time for his own use. (DMSH)

As Tolokai continued to advance, Malan managed one last effort and tackled the Gotal. They fell down a flight of stairs, and Tolokai's neck was broken in the fall. However, Malan's injuries were too severe, and he died from loss of blood. (SOC)
Tuhgri  
this race is native to the planet Ehjenla. As a race, they believe in the existence of a Great Creator who provides them with everything they need to survive on their homeworld as well as in space.

For his first mission, Cherek was placed in command of the rescue of Edbit Teeks from the planet Tarhassan. Like most of the rest of the team, Cherek was a rookie, and relied more on his bureaucratic training than his gut instincts. Every step of the mission had to be completely planned out, and execution could not waver if they were to succeed. This grated on Joram Kithe and his partner, Mapper Gann, who had survived an earlier mission on Pengalan IV only through their quick thinking and ability to improvise. Tuhm became extremely flustered by Joram's initiative during the mission, especially when Joram and Mapper reworked the team's original plan in order to break Teeks out of prison. During the daring rescue, Tuhm took a blaster bolt in the chest and was badly wounded. He survived the injury, however, and received medical treatment durnig the team's return to Coruscant. (SWI73)

The mouth of a tuk'ata was filled with three rows of teeth, and its head was protected by three horns. The arms of the tuk'ata were generally considered to be vestigial wings, and were tipped with poisonous stingers. The poison acted on contact, numbing any flesh it touched.

His businesslike demeanor attracted him to Gillam Tarturi, who asked him to join his small band of mercenaries. His field of expertise was in military history, and he provided Gillam's group with a battle strategist. When Gillam's plan to fake his own death and blame it on his father was exposed by Anakin Skywalker and his Master, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Tulah, Gillam, and the entire team were expelled from the Leadership School and transported to Coruscant for questioning. (JQ5)

Any being who wore the mask discovered a feeling of intense claustrophobia. (KOTOR)
Tuldok  
this Recopian "family" owned the Tuldok Ranch. Although they were regarded by most people as traveling traders, the Tuldoks were actually pirates who plundered their way through the Colonies region of the galaxy. During the height of the New Order, they stayed in the Colonies region during the Imperial occupation of Recopia, but returned shortly befre the battle of Endor as privateers working for the Alliance. After the loose government of Recopia joined the New Republic, the Tuldok family assumed legitimate control of the Recopian govnerment. (CCW)

He hoped to ensure an Imperial victory over the Alliance at Edan II by planting an agent within the base's personnel. At a pre-defined signal, the spy would bring down the planetary shield and disable the ion cannon, allowing Colonel Deers' forces to launch a ground assault. Unfortunately, Tulimus didn't count on the resourcefulness of the rebel underground or the Alliance, which launched a full-out attack on the Havoc after the Empire had routed Edan Base. In the face of the attack, Tulimus and his crew were destroyed in the explosion of the Havoc. (IAG)

Tull, Sheeka  
this woman, a former smuggler and entrepreneur who was native to the planet Atrivis 7, was a noted pilot who worked with the Desert Wind guerrilla group during the height of the Clone Wars. She was also loyal to the Old Republic, and agreed to help Kit Fisto and Obi-Wan Kenobi infiltrate the native Cestians in an effort to ascertain the truth behind the JK-series security droids being ordered by the Separatists. Her loyalty only extended as far as needed, and she made it perfectly clear to the offworlders that she was not happy about the situation. She was the daughter of Sheevis Tull, who taught her how to fly a starship. She nearly lost her sister on Devon Four, when the Republic refused to break an embargo to provide aid when a plague struck the planet. Sheeka took it upon herself to smuggler the antidote onto the planet, breaking several Republic laws to save her sister. A dark-skinned woman of exceptional beauty and strength, Sheeka had a stringent sense of humor and a deep-seated love of her people. As an eighteen-year-old smuggler, she moved about in her personal starship, the Spindragon, which she kept lovingly maintained. During this time she had a brief affair with Jango Fett, and she never forgot him. After her parents were killed in a range-war on Atrivis 7, she fled the planet to the most remote location she could reach: Ord Cestus. Once on the planet, she soon found herself in love with a miner named Yander. She also fell in love with his three children and the mining community. Thus, Yander's death hit Sheeka hard, and she retreated into her personal shell. Years later, when the Jedi arrived, she arranged to meet Master Fisto in the Dashta Mountains, and was surprised to find that the Nautolan was also accompanied by a group of ARC troopers. The appearance of the clones, who resembled Jango Fett at the time Sheeka first met him, shook her up a bit. It was their appearance that softened Sheeka a little, and she found herself attracted to Nate in many ways. Even training for combat drew her closer to Nate, who eventually changed his name to Jangotat. After their base was invaded by a group of combat droids, Sheeka managed to rescue the badly-injured Jangotat and remove him to her village in the Zantay Hills. It was during his recovery that Jangotat felt most vulnerable, and his presence at the settlement only placed Sheeka and her family in danger. Sheeka revealed that she hated what he represented, the Clone Wars and the way it was destroying the galaxy. As for Jangotat himself, she only felt pity. This pity changed to love after she took him to see the Guides in person, and Jangotat realized that he was unique in the galaxy, despite the obvious nature of his upbringing. She kissed him twice to prove her love, and Jangotat did nothing to prevent it. In the brief time they were together, Sheeka conceived a child by Jangotat, the only thing she had to cling to after his heroic death on the Kibo Plateau. (TCD)

However, his troops were extremely loyal and effective, and Tulon's results could not be ignored. After Tulon was promoted to Captain, one of his superiors contrived to have Tulon eliminated by sending his troops to Khomm, placing them in harm's way. However, Tulon and a handful of others survived the massacre, and he eventually discovered the treacherous actions. He exposed his superior officer, but the fact that so many men died under his command led him to request a transfer to become an instructor. Tulon excelled in teaching the workings of the Battlefield Holographic Control Interface. (FC)

a species of semi-intelligent avian hunters, the tulvarees were native to the planet Pochi. When Faarl the Conquerer took control of the planet, the Tulvarees quickly learned how to take orders from the human.

Tun Aduban Spaceport  
this was the only spaceport found on the planet Aduba-3. It was originally just an open collection of spaces alloted at random on a flat patch of stable desert sand. When the false chromium rush brought prospectors and mininf operations to the planet, a control tower was erected to help navigate the increasing numbers of starships at the spaceport. After the mines were abandoned, the control tower was no longer needed, and was also abandoned. Coordination of the spaceport's activities was delegated to a half-functioning PK-series droid, which only seemed to be concerned with the operational status of the spaceport's landing beacon. Because of this situation, shipjacking was a common occurrence, as well as a variety of thefts. (GMR4)

Tund  
this world was the primary planet in the Outer Rim's Tund System. For many centuries or even millennia - no one was ever quite sure - Tund was the home to a brotherhood of magicians known as the Sorcerers of Tund. The planet used to be a lush, evergreen-forested world, but Rokur Gepta destroyed it in a fit of conceit, reducing it to a smoking ball of ash. From space, the planet seemed to glow with a greenish-blue inner light, a result of the intense residue left over from the magic Rokur Gepta unleashed on it. Note that the Star Wars Databank indicates that the planet Tund was the homeworld of the Toong race. (LCM, LCS, IWE1, SWDB)
Tundan  
this was the ancient language spoken by the Sorcerers of Tund. (DSSB)
Tundei  
this regime took control of the government of Abregado-Rae shortly after the Battle of Endor, claiming that they wanted to eliminate all criminal activities and make Abregado-Rae a law-abiding world. Made up from offworlders who had made Abregado-rae their home, the Tundei was founded with the help of the Herglic known as Shelov. The activities of the planet were governed by the Tundei Tribunal. While their efforts worked initially, their strongarm methods of enforcing the new laws eventually backfired. Smugglers who once flocked to the planet as a haven changed their tactics to supplying the opponents of the Tundei regime with weapons and food. When stronger actions were taken to block this activity, the smuggling community simply stopped working on Abregado-Rae altogether, since their profit margins dwindled while the risks multiplied. Eventually, Tundei regulations starved the planet of billions of credits, both legitimate and illegal, and the planet nearly went bankrupt. When the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, the Tundei found themselves overwhelmed by refugees demanding a place to hide. (CCW)
Tundei Tribunal

Unlike his predecessor, Senator Dowmeia was focused on the Republic's well-being, a stance that led him to join Meena Tills as a part of the Delegation of the Two Thousand. Unfortunately, Senator Dowmeia was among the first Senators to be arrested for their part in the Petition, after Palpatine instituted the New Order and assumed the position of Emperor.

Tunnel Worm  
this bioluminescent lifeform was encountered by the crew of the FarStar, deep inside an alien construct located within the Kathol Rift. They lived in unusual streams and rivers running through the construct, absorbing nutrients through their permeable skin. It was later discovered that the tunnel worms were descended from a bio-engineered worm which was created to clean the water supply of the construct. When the original builders abandoned the construct, the tunnel worms continued to evolve on their own. (KR, SWJ15)
Tunnel Worm  
tunnel worms were native to the planet Tasariq, living in the tunnels they burrowed into the earth. These segmented worms measured more than three meters in length, and were predators who hunted on the surface of the planet.

Tunroth  
a humanoid race native to the third, fourth, and fifth planets of the Jiroch System, the Tunroth evolved originally on Jiroch-Reslia and spread to Kalok and Saloch. Tall and muscular, the Tunroth are characterized by their yellow skin and unusual skulls. Their elongated skulls have two nostrils at the top and front, below which sit their dark eyes. Their mouths are filled with sharp teeth, and are surrounded by several horns that stud their chins. They have an intense passion for the hunt, and are an aggressive, self-confident race. These characteristics were questioned when the Tunroth were decimated by the Reslian Plague, but the resulting sense of unity and purpose in rebuilding their society has made them stronger. The plague was brought to their system by a group of Lortan fanatics who swept through the Jiroch and several other systems, leaving death in their wake. The Empire tried to destroy the Lortans and remove their scourge from the galaxy, and succeeded in the Jiroch System. Thus, the Tunroth people have some minimal priase for the Empire, even knowing that the Empire was not there to save the Tunroth themselves. They have agrarian technology, but have taken quickly to high-tech weaponry in their struggles against Imperial domination of their system. (GG12)

The three friends agreed to help Obi-Wan Kenobi and Astri Oddo investigate Ren's death and the machinations of Jenna Zan Arbor. After Tino told Obi-Wan and Astri of Captain Yur T'aug's halt to the investigation of Ren's death, Weez, Cholly, and Tup followed the two to Coruscant. They hoped to find the location of Zan Arbor's hidden stash of medicines and vaccines, taking them and selling them for a huge profit. They had planned to steal them all along, but Ren had told them to stay away from Zan Arbor. Weez felt that if the trio could see Ren's belongings, they could locate the stash and obtain the medicines. The trio returned to Simpla-12 with Obi-Wan and Astri, but were unable to help them infiltrate Zan Arbor's lab. The trio tried to redeem themselves by helping Astri locate Ona Nobis, first tailing the bounty hunter on Sorrus and then following her to Belasco. In the end, the boys never saw any fighting, but provided "moral support." They agreed to travel to Coruscant with Astri to work as Didi's Cafι. (EVE, TDR)

Turak IV  
a planet, this was the site of the worst defeat that the Hell's Hammers ever suffered at the hands of the Alliance. Alliance forces were able to eliminate nearly all of the Hammers' repulsortanks , but not before losing large amounts of manpower and equipment themselves.

After Matt's wife Anii and daughter, Alex, died (or were believed to be dead) within a year of each other, Jamie took Matt in and tried to help him regain an equilibrium by employing him at the repair shop. Matt lost the rights to the shop in a sabacc match to Tere Metallo, but she refused to accept the payment because Matt wasn't a full partner. Instead, she asked Matt to work off his debt as a mechanic aboard her ship, the Star Quest. Jamie was reluctant to see Matt leave, but felt that the job might help him in the long run. (SWJ7)

He deserted the military and fled to Tatooine, where he fell into a deep despair and had to live with his older brother, Jamie, because he would not keep a regular job. After nearly losing his brother's landspeeder repair shop in a sabacc match to Tere Metallo, Matt was faced with a choice: pay Metallo the 150,000 credits he owed her, or go to work as her mechanic.

Turmok  
this unusual space slug was discovered by a group of slug hunters more than fifty years before the Battle of Endor. Turmok had a basic level of sentience, and it believed that it was the only being to exist in the universe. That was, until the slug hunters showed up. When the hunters entered Turmok's mouth and began firing their blasters, Turmok swallowed them whole. Turmok later consumed the rescue team that was sent to find the hunters. It began to realize that it was not alone in the universe, and that all other creatures were out to kill him. In addition to its sentience, Turmok also had evolved a huge set of probing, tentacle-like cilia inside it mouth, which it used to examine its surroundings. It used these cilia to pull the hunters' ships into its mouth and explore them, until one day it triggered one of the ship's distress signals. When another rescue team arrived, Turmok ate them as well. Turmok learned to use the distress call to draw in unsuspecting rescue teams, then consumed them. (WOTC)
Tur-Mukan, Etain  
this young woman was one of the many Jedi Padawans who were away from Coruscant when the Clone Wars broke out. She and her Master, Kast Fulier, were dispatched to the planet Qiilura to investigate the development of a nanovirus by Ovolot Qail Uthan. Their attempts to infiltrate the farmers and gain their confidence were undermined by the fact that many of the farmers were under the control of Ghez Hokan, who was being funded by the Separatists. The farmers eventually betrayed them, and Master Fulier was captured and killed. Etain managed to escape, but only barely. She feared that her lack of ability to control the Force would be her death, since it had kept her from advancing very far in her own training. However, as luck would have it, she ran into the clone commando Darman during her escape. She was unprepared for Darman's appearance, since she had been away from Coruscant while the Grand Army of the Republic was formed. His pronouncement that she was now his commanding officer scared her, as she had very little military training. She was also unprepared for what she saw of Darman with the Force, because she saw him as a ten-year-old, which was his chronological age. Given his military training and Etain's Jedi training, she was surprised to find that she was attracted to him, and he to her. She felt stronger and more capable in his presence, and he helped her learn some of the skills she needed to be a military commander. He located two poles and sparred with her in one-on-one combat, honing her lightsaber skills while enhancing both their fighting skills at the same time. Etain thoroughly enjoyed these times together, as they served to strengthen the bond between them. After Uthan was captured, thanks in part ot Etain's growing leadership and combat skills, she returned to the Republic's command post to report to Jedi Master Arligan Zey. She refused to leave Qiilura when Zey ordered the rest of Omeag Squad to hunt down Hokan, and Zey was forced to lat her accompany them. They located Hokan quickly, and it was Etain's lightsaber that finally killed the criminal. Fi returned Master Fulier's lightsaber to her, but Etain didn't want it. She turned it over to Master Zey instead, then decided to remain on Qiilura to honor her promise to Jinart, helping remove the Separatist forces and allowing the Gurlanin to live freely on their homeworld. (RCHC)

The name Tu-Scart translated from the Yuuzhan Vong language as "slithering smasher." After years of conquest, the Yuuzhan Vong brought Sgauru and Tu-Scart to Coruscant, following the planet's reformation into a new version of Yuuzhan'tar. On Coruscant, the pair was put to work in destroying as much of the duracrete and transparisteel as they could, thereby helping the World Brain to complete its worldshaping activities. Some five years after the invasion began, Sgauru and Tu-Scart were ordered to play a more offensive role, when they were dispatched by Supreme Overlord Shimrra to attack the Galactic Alliance infiltration force that landed on Coruscant. Note that the Wizards of the Coast website claims that Tu-Scart is the Beater. Also note that The Unifying Force indicates that Tu-Scart was a male. (BP, WOTC, UF)

Each lekku is filled with muscles, and stored in the cells of the lekku were the Twi'lek's deepest memories. Twi'leks often use subtle twitches and flexings of their lekku as a form of communication. They have rows of pointed teeth, and close-set, pig-like eyes. They are native to the planet Ryloth. They also have multiple stomachs, and will feed on almost anything, from the fungi that grow on Ryloth to the cowlike rycrits. The skin coloration of a Twi'lek varies, with all shades of the rainbow represented, as well as white and black. Twi'leks live in clans which are governed by a five-member group known as a head clan. The members of the clan append their clan name to their given name; for example, Koh'shak. This combined name has a definite meaning, and subtle changes in pronunciation can be incurred by the addition of the clan name. The Twi'leki will often adapt the full name to indicate the true - or more flattering - actual name. One example it Nawara Ven. A member of the Ven clan, his full name should be Nawara'ven. However, when translated, this becomes "tarnished silver." His family adapted his full name to be Nawar'aven, which translates to "good speaker" (literally, "silver-tongued").

this was the name given to the temporary X-Wing squadron assigned to Luke Skywalker, shortly after the Yuuzhan Vong captured Coruscant. It was formed from the veterans of Saber Squadron, Shock Squadron, and other units which were decimated during the Battle of Coruscant. After some discussion with Wedge Antilles and the Inner Circle, Luke agreed to turn the squadron over to Jaina Solo, in an effort to enhance her image as Yun-Harla incarnate, as part of their plan to throw the alien invaders off-balance. The plan was two-fold: it would put Jaina in a position of authority over the Jedi, including Luke Skywalker; and it would enhance the notion that she was a twin. The squadron performed admirably, but took losses as the battle against the Yuuzhan Vong wore on. In the wake of the Battle of Coruscant and the raids into Yuuzhan Vong-controlled space, Twin Suns Squadron was regularly restaffed with inexperienced recruits, a fact that gnawed on Jaina's conscience. However, as the battle began to turn toward the Republic and Jaina gained more confidence in her leadership abilities, Twin Suns gathered more and more success. With the appearance of Zonama Sekot near Coruscant, some five years after the initial invasion, Jaina relinquished command of the Squadron to Jagged Fel, so that she could be more involved with the work being done with the living planet.

After learning that the Yinchorri base was not on Yibikkoror, the Jedi traveled to Yinchorr itself to locate it. During an intense struggle to reach Mace Windu and his team, Lilit gave her life for K'Kruhk, taking a Yinchorri blade through her midsection to allow the padawan to escape. (AOW)
Two-wave Gravshock Device  
this Imperial weapon, which can be housed inside the shell of a Torpedo Sphere, localizes a nearby planet's gravitational field, causing artificial earthquakes and other seismic disasters. While incredibly effective, these devices are also incredibly expensive to power. The localization of the planet's gravity also caused nearby starships, including the torpedo sphere, to experience rapid and random orbital shifts, making the weapon dangerous to use. (ISB)
TX-1118  
this series of assassin droids was produced by MerenData for use by the Empire. Roughly humanoid in shape, the TX-1118 was designed with a variety of on-board weapons systems. It was originally marketed as a solider but was priced too high, and MerenData found themselves with a surplus of droids in their warehouses. In order to recover their development costs, MerenData reprogrammed the droids to eliminate the ethics programming and turn the TX-1118 into an assassin that would kill any being they were told to. This droid, known as the Terminax, was armed with a blaster rifle in one arm and a fragmentation grenade launcher in the other. The TX-1118 was known for its loyalty. Note that the Arms and Equipment Guide indicates that this droid was developed by MerenData Termina. Also note that Wretched Hives of Scum and Villiany indicates that the TX-1118 was built by Terminax. (WSV, AEG)
TX-130  
this was the basic model of Saber-class fighter tank produced by Rothana Heavy Engineering during the Clone Wars. Developed for use by the clone troopers of the Army of the Republic, the 8.2-meter-long tank was an example of the speed at which Rothana was able to take a prototype and bring it to full production. The TX-130 could perform a number of different missions, from defending perimeters to leading hit-and-run attacks. These craft were armed with a pair of heavy laser cannons, a turret-mounted medium double-laser cannon, and a thermal detonator missile launcher. Other weapons configurations were also possible, depending on the specific arena into which the TX-130 was deployed. In addition to a modified Phase 3 deflector shield generator, the TX-130 had reactive composite hull plating, giving it exceptional protection for those brief periods when the shields were recharging. The TX-130 required a pilot, navigator, and a gunner to operate, and could move across the battlefield at speeds aproaching 190 kilometers per hour. The Jedi Knights also used their own versions of the TX-130 tank, often modifying them for their own use. One the most common of these modifications was the use of an astromech droid in place of the gunner station, providing navigation capabilities during solo missions. (OWS, WOTC)
TX-130S  
this was one of the many variants on the high-powered Saber-class repulsor tank that was produced by Rothana Heavy Engineering, in support of the clone troopers of the Army of the Republic. One of the most versatile vehicles in the Old Republic's arsenal during the Clone Wars, the TX-130S was armed with a pair of heavy laser cannons and a missile launcher. One of the more devastating weapons it could launch was a computer-guided missile that was armed with a thermal detonator in its nosecone. (SWI62, OWS)

TX-A1  
this TX-series assassin droid had a "change of heart" during the early years of the New Republic. It renounced its assassin programming and decided that life - whether organic or not - was too precious to waste. This made interacting with living beings difficult, since TX-A1 was immediately recognized as a killer. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, TX-A1 worked independently from the New Republic, but used its skills to save other beings and eliminate any Yuuzhan Vong threats. (AEG)
Txer  
this Psadan was the leader of the Free People, who fought against the Yuuzhan Vong who took control of the planet Wayland some twenty-five years after the Battle of Endor. It was Txer who befriended Uldir Lochett, when the human traveled to Wayland to recover Klin-Fa Gi. Although Uldir proved himself to be the enemy of the Psadan's enemies, Txer refused to assist him in capturing Gi. Instead, the Psadans helped him in order to keep an eye on his activities. Later, when the Uldir and Klin-Fa Gi were confronted with a huge contingent of Yuuzhan Vong warriors, Txer gave his own life to ensure that Uldir escaped. He and his clan set up a rope ladder for the two humans to climb, while Txer himself confronted the alien invaders to hold them off. (GMR10, SWI62)

However, shortly before the onset of the Clone Wars, TY44 served as the primary outpost for the rebels who were fighting against the aggression of the Vanqors. A small base was established deep beneath TY44's ice-covered surface, until it was betrayed by Mezdec. Then, only the efforts of Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and his apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, helped the Typha-Dor people establish a cease-fire with the Vanqors. (JQ7)

Quite often, individuals would revert back to their savage roots, attacking their owners and causing great harm. During the winter months, tybis herds had to be released into the wild to hibernate. In the valley surrounding the Temple of the Infinite Spirit, huge groups of tybis would sleep in great piles during the winter. The predatory instincts of the tybis were often brought immediately to bear when they were awakened from this sleep. (EGP, WOTC)

this alias was used by Wes Janson to infiltrate the city of Revos, on Storinal, shortly before the Night Caller was to rendezvous with the Hawkbat. Tyestin was an exiled Imperial Senator from Bakura, who was raising funds to support the Bakuran Loyalist Movement. He was accompanied by three bodyguards: Anen, who was actually Atril Tabanne; Honiten, who was actually Falynn Sandskimmer; and Voort saBinring. The alias was, in fact, based on a real person.

Tymps were especially fond of eating roti, and often destroyed the storehouses of the grain maintained by the native Seratians. Native populations of tymps continue to grow however, because the Seratians hunt their only known predator, the symer, in order to obtain their organs and appendages for use in charms and potions. Thus, the tymp population exploded, placing a great strain on the supplies of roti. (COG)

Tyne reported directly to Aaz'del Hutrick during this time, and increased the plant's production immensely. Using the Dark Side of the Force, Tyne discovered that the Sertim sisters had decided to assist the Alliance, and had made contact with a team which had crash-landed on Marca. He laid a trap for them, capturing Darci Sertim and using her as a hostage while placing Marci in prison. The sisters were rescued by the Alliance team shortly before the hyperbaride plant exploded.

Although the eyesight of a Tynnan was considered poor, their sense of hearing was quite acute. Like most other creatures found on Tynna, the Tynnans' bodies maintained a layer of blubber to help maintain their body temperature. As a race, the Tynnans were quite wealthy, but individuals were required to pay their dues to a state-run government that provided the necessities free of charge. Those Tynnans who desired to work for a living took on professions as artists or scientists. They were curious about the galaxy at large, and many Tynnans traveled the stars in search of new locations. As a people, Tynnans tended to be frivolous, but they were also known to be pragmatic planners. (HSR, AE)

(CTD)
Typha-Dor  
this was the name used to describe the human population of the planet Typha-Dor. When the Vanqor began their conquest of the Uziel System, it was the Typha-Dor people who staged the largest resistance to their plans. What little resistance mustered from other worlds fled to Typha-Dor to create a larger alliance. It was this alliance that petitioned the Old Republic Senate and the Jedi Knights to help put a stop to the Vanqor aggression. (JQ7)
Typha-Dor  
this planet, located in the Uziel System, was the last of the worls in that system to hold out against the invasion plans of the Vanqors. The native human population petitioned the Old Republic and the Jedi Knights to intervene before Vanqor controlled the entire system. The few resistance fighters who dared to stand up against the Vanqors rallied from a base on the Typha-Dor moon known as TY44, until Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker were dispatched to help rectify the situation. Typha-Dor was orbited by a large number of moons, which appeared to be strewn across the night sky like a necklace. (JG7)

Like his uncle, Typho employed Corde' as a stand-in for Padme' upon their arrival at Coruscant, and event which likely saved Padme's life. Their starship was destroyed by Jango Fett and Zam Wesell as soon as it landed, and Corde' was killed in the blast. Padme' and been traveling in a support ship, and survived the assault. Typho remained ever-vigilant in the wake of Corde's death, and was glad to have the assistance of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. He worked with the Jedi to ensure Padme's safety.

He was also known as Typtus of the Thirty-Third Egg, since he traced his history back to the exact egg in his creche. This was a fortuitous number, believed to be lucky among the Geonosians. This added to his personal aura, and made him the obvious choice to lead the Gehenbar Hive. (GORW)
Tyr  
this unusual humanoid was one of the many Jedi Masters who were sent into battle as Generals within the Grand Army of the Republic, during the height of the Clone Wars.

From this position, they were to await the destruction of Drev'starn's shield generator before beginning their attack. The ships would fire from their hidden position, with the intent of drawing the multitude of New Republic warships gathered there into an all-out civil war. However, Carib Devist noticed that there were several small prove ships that moved into and out of sight when they passed near the comets, and was able to alert the Republic of their presence. 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)

Tyro Caladian  
this black-haired Svivreni was a lawyer and Senatorial aide for the Old Republic, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. Tyro provided investigative services to Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, during their investigation of Granta Omega. It was Tyro who suggested that the Jedi issue an order to reveal against Senator Sano Sauro, and helped the Jedi work their way through the incredible amount of paperwork required. Unfortunately, Senator Sauro invoked a sitting right of refusal, blocking their attempt to open his personal records. Tyro committed himself to digging deeper into the situation, offering any assistance he could to Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan continued to rely on Tyro's connections in the Senate for many months, durnig which time the Jedi were trying to track down Granta Omega. When it was discovered that Omega's true target was on Coruscant, Tyro was more than happy to help the Jedi determine what might be the connections between Omega, Roy Teda, Sano Sauro, and Bog Divinian. However, he made his greatest discovery just before Omega launched his seeker droids on the Senate. He tried to reach Obi-Wan in the Senate chambers, but was shot and badly wounded while trying to reach him. As Obi-Wan reached him, Tyro died from his injuries before he could explain what he had found. In the true Svivreni way, Obi-Wan didn't say goodbye, but wished Tyro luck on his new journey. (JQ5, JQ9)
Tyro Viveca  
this Krish was considered the wealthiest member of his species, and was a hunter and collector of exotic predatory creatures. However, his morals were considered lacking by many fellow big-game hunters, since Viveca often hunted sentient beings for sport. He was known to have captured a female Florn lamproid and her mate, killing the male and stuffing while maintaining the female in captivity for a later hunt. During the height of the Galactic Civil War, Viveca opened his doors to Cecil Noone, who had traveled to Kabal in an attempt to sell a Hapan gun of command his band had stolen. Viveca had heard through the underworld grapevine that Noone had crossed or doublecrossed both Guttu the Hutt and Ritinki, and threatened to turn Noone and his band over to the other crimelords if he didn't simply give the weapon away. When Noone protested, Viveca explained that the only way he would escape would be to avoid being captured before he could exit the Krish's hunting grounds. During the hunt for Noone, Viveca found himself the target of the female Lamproid he had captured, which had been set free by Noone. Although the Lamproid managed to kill Viveca's servant, Rutt, he was able to kill it before it could harm him. The loss of the creature only increased Viveca's desire to kill Noone. Viveca thought it was very unsporting of Noone to accept the help of his companions, Dawson and Kels Turkhorn, in escaping from the compound, but soon found himself worrying about his own demise. Dawson had rigged up a wad of detonite to a motion sensor, and when Viveca entered a copse of bambooi, his body triggered the devise. The resulting explosion killed Viveca instantly, and leveled some four hectares of bambooi. (GMR1)
Tyrol  
this small-time Devaronian criminal was known to use luma flares during a fight, as a way to incapacitate a large number of attackers. (GUN)
Tyrson, Saz  
this former Imperial Commander took the forces under his command and defected from the Empire after the Battle of Endor. He used his military prowess and the fleet he stole to take control of more than twenty star systems, carving himself a nice little empire. Many believed that Tyrson was behind the poisoning of Natja the Hutt, but his was later proven innocent. (POC)
Tyrus  
once an officer in the Repean military, Colonel Tyrus served as second-in-command of the Crimson Aces defense fleet. When the Empire destroyed the original Crimson Aces, Tyrus fled into the Cron Drift, where he eventually met up with his commanding officer, Gikkin, and rebuilt the Crimson Aces as a mercenary unit. Tyrus assumed command of the Crimson Aces after Gikkin's death. (GMR9)

this species of avian was known for its incessant chittering. (MBS)
Tyrusian Mangler  
this was a ferocious creature known for its interspecies battles. (DMSH)
Tyrusian Red Ale  
this potent brew, produced during the last decades of the Old Republic, was noted for its advertising slogan, "Because yellow doesn't look good in space." This was perhaps the best things about the ale, which had a horrid smell. (MBS)
Tyruun  
this tree, native to the jungles of Haruun Kal, was known for its exotic wood. Because the tyruun tree grew only on Haruun Kal, its wood was quite expensive. When used to make a fire, tyruun wood burned at a very high temperature, creating white-hot embers which lasted for hours. (SHPT)
Tyshapahl  
the natives of this planet staged a peaceful demonstration against the New Order and their Sector Moff. The Moff sent his ships to hover over the protestors and disperse it. When the demonstrators failed to disband, he ordered the ships to leave quickly, burning the protestors in their exhaust wake. (RD)
Tystel Mark III  
this heavy blaster weapon was produced by the Zabrak, during the era of the Great Sith War. Many Tystel blasters ended up in the hands of pirates, when they began ambushing transport ships from Iridonia to acquire them. The Zabraks retaliated by placing military personnel on their transport ships, taking the fight to the pirates. Unfortunately, many of these Zabrak personnel recognized the profit that could be made, and listed the shipments as "lost" in order to sell the weapons on the black market. (KOTOR)
Tythe  
this desolate planet was the site of an Old Republic base, until the planet's government was overthrown by the Separatists during the height of the Clone Wars. Many years earlier, the once-lush planet had been virtually destroyed by the LiMerge Power corporation, which had attempted to profit from collecting plasma-based energy from its core. The mining operations proved inadequate for containing the plasma energy, and a series of nuclear explosions caused intense geological disruption, leveling much of the planet's surface and leaving it a barren wasteland. Only a handful of hardy plants managed to survive the cataclysm. It was rumored that Count Dooku established a base of operations on the planet, and it was enough of a rumor that the Jedi Order believed it was true. Upon hearing their news, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine requested that Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker be dispatched to Tythe to capture Dooku once and for all. Although members of the Jedi Council worried about such an attack spreading the resources of the Grand Army of the Republic too thinly, Palpatine insisted that there might not be another opportunity to capture Dooku. This insistance nearly proved to be fatal, as it was learned that Dooku's appearance on Tythe - coupled with that of Shu Mai on Felucia - was a ruse meant to draw the Jedi Knights and the Grand Army of the Republic away from Coruscant. It was, in fact, a clone of Dooku that was on Tythe, one of many such clones created to draw the Republic's forces into a thinner and thinner net. Once the real Dooku saw that the capital of the Republic was undefended, Dooku launched an all-out assault on Coruscant. (ROF, YDR, LEV)
Tython  
this planet was believed to have been the first world on which the Force was discovered, during the early years of the Old Republic. The Force was known as the Ashla to the natives of Tython. (PJSB)

Tyvius  
this man was one of the many refugees from the planet Druckenwell who tried to escape the Yuuzhan Vong subjugation of his homeworld by fleeing aboard the converted freighter Chilastra. The effects of seeing his home destroyed and his homeworld in the hands of the Yuuzhan Vong caused Tyvius to lose his mind, and the attack on the Chilastra caused him to fall into a deeper state of denial. He tried to attack the Yuuzhan Vong warriors who boarded the ship with a sonic blender, believing that the cooking tool was a blaster. Knowing that Tyvius was not Ka-Tu-Un, the Yuuzhan Vong decided to leave Tyvius alone. (GMR8)
Tyvokka  
this Wookiee was a great Jedi Master who served on the Jedi Council dring the years leading up to the Stark Hyperspace Wars. Many Jedi believed that Master Tyvokka could read the future through the Force, remaining focused on the present to intuit what the future might hold. Master Tyvokka was known as a patient tracher, but he was tested in this when he took Plo Koon as his Padawan apprentice. Nevertheless, the pair worked well together for many years. It was Master Tyvokka who first saw through the false bacta shortages which were the cause, in part, of the Stark Hyperspace Wars. His steady demeanor kept the negotiations between the Stark Commercial Combine, the Trade Federation, and the Old Republic on track until Stark tried to assassinate everyone. In the ensuing firefight, Master Tyvokka was killed when the Trade Federation's battle droids opened fire into the melee, which became known as the Fifth Battle of Qotile. His place on the Jedi Council was taken by his apprentice, Plo Koon. (SHW, WOTC)
Tyyre, Valantya  
this woman was a small-time, local holovid star who threw extravagant parties and mingled with all sorts of wealthy and famous beings. She also operated a temporary safehouse for the Alliance. Known as 'Vala's Place,' Valantya used her apartment in the StarTower Residences as a place to hold Allaince agents until they could be moved to the Brila residence at 16AA889 Starfield Road. She didn't use the nickname Vala as a rule, but agents who needed her help were instructed to ask for Vala and use the passphrase, "The droid sent me." (HAS)

Tzeel  
this woman played percussion for the badn Distraction, during the early years of the New Order. Distinguished by the white facepaint she used, Tzeel originally wore the paint only at concerts, where it made her face glow in the stage lighting. However, she came to enjoy the effect, and decided to wear white facepaint all the time. She was known to talk as much with her hands as with her mouth, moving her hands as though she were playing the drums while she talked. She was injected with a heavy dosage of drugs by Niklas Cories, who was trying to make it appear that she was actually her own stand-in, Rossi Kildaon, when Cories tried to murder Aquella Firth aboard the Sleemo Poya Jeedai. (WOA28)
Tzenkens  
an Alliance Fleet Admiral, Tzenkens was placed in charge of the Tierfon fleet following the Alliance's losses in the Tocan System. (RASB)
Tzeotine  
this thick resin was produced in copious amounts by the plantlife that dominated the planet Parcelus Minor. Tzeotine was used by the inhabitants of the planet as a fuel source for lamps and heat, and refined it for use as a motor fuel. The presence of so much tzeotine in the plants proved deadly to the planet during the Clone Wars, when a rogue Separatist general ordered an orbital bombardment of Parcelus Minor. The blasts ignited the tzeotine that was in the plants, setting the entire planet on fire in a short time. (RDE)
Tzidik Wrantojo  
this four-legged, insectoid being was one of the galaxy's best podracers, some ten years after the Battle of Naboo. (RACR)
Tzimernut  
this tree was native to the planet Hapes. (DJ)
Tzizvvt

Tzur  
originally native to the oceans of Yuuzhan'tar, the long lost homeworld of the Yuuzhan Vong, this writhing mass of tentacles was a voracious predator. (GMR8)
Tzur'qipat  
this was the Yuuzhan Vong name for the technology that combined a living tzur with an qipat firewasp in a large shell, providing a Yuuzhn Vong warrior with a way of creating a smoke screen. Inside the shell of the tzur'qipat, the tzur was held in a bucket of salt water, without food. Attached to the top of the shell was the qipat firewasp, held in a blister of nutrients. The body chemistry of the qipat had been altered so that it was incompatible with that of the tzur. When the top of the shell was rapped with a Yuuzhan Vong's knuckles, the qipat was awakened. At the command "yuth ugh', the qipat was released from its blister. The starved tzur immediately consumed it, not realizing that the qipat was actually poisonous. The resulting chemical mixture consumed both creatures, as well as the salt water and the inner surface of the shell, creating a thick smoke which billowed out from the shell. The smoke was noxious to breath and incredibly dense, and Yuuzhan Vong who worked with a tzur'qipat had to wear kavaaviks to see and gnullith breathers to get fresh air. (GMR8)

* U *
U  
this was the Snivvian word for "you." (HNN5)

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)
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)
U2-C1  
see U2C1 (AEG)
U-33  
this was a model of old, out-dated, orbital loadlifter that was equipped 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. It was during Han's own test that he earned the nickname Slick, after Alexsandr Badure rigged a U-33 to all but self-destruct. Han was able to bring the vessel to a near-perfect landing despite the problems he encountered, although he scared his instructor almost to death in the process. Although durable, the typcial U-33 was prone to problems with its reservoir-locking mechanisms, which often stuck in one position and kept the landing gear from fully extending or retracting. (HSL)
U-3PO  
this silver-plated protocol droid served the Royal House of Alderaan for many years. U-3PO was with Leia Organa on the Tantive IV when it was attacked by the Devastator. U-3PO was captured, and reprogrammed by the Empire for espionage purposes. (CCG2)
U55-XBB  
this was the map designation used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems to identify one of Gentes' primary industrial centers. General Grievous launched a massive attack on the location, during the height of the Clone Wars, hoping to gain control of the administrative center and conquer the planet. Using a huge military presence to literally scare the native Ugnaughts into a surrender, Grievous was able to take control of the industrial facilities with virtually no loss of life or resources. This gave the Trade Federation the opportunity to quickly take over the processing of resources without having to rebuild the facilities. (SWGG)
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)
Ub Ruur  
see Crash, The (DN1)
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. (ANT)

Uda-Khalid  
this immense, white-skinned humanoid was one of the Old Republic's most notorious criminals, although he was never brought before a judge and jury to be tried for his crimes. 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.

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.

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.

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)

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)

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)

Uj Cake  
this was the informal name for a sweet, filling, amber-colored dessert cake that was considered the staple of the Mandalorian diet. Its full name was uj'alayi, and it was not uncommon to find it served at formal parties during the last years of the Old Republic. Uj cake was made from a dense, sweet cake that was created from ground nuts, dried fruits, and various spices. A thick syrup called uj'jayl was then poured over the cake and allowed to soak in, creating a sticky mass that was packed with nutrients and energy-producing sugars. The origins of uj'alayi came from the rations that were provided to ancient Mandalorian soldiers, and it was often said that uj cake was first cooked inside the helmet of a soldier before it was put up for storage. The modern version of uj cake was baked in a round pan, and wrapped well to prevent damage. Even in its unpreserved state, uj cake lasted for years because of its high sugar content. (RCHC, OWS)
Ujaa  
this Bith and his brither, Ujii, joined the band known as the Twisted Rancor Trio just after Elinda, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. However, Ujaa wasn't much of a musician, and he was eventually fired and replaced by Loopa. (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)

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)

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)

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)

this droid manufacturer, an division of LeisureMech Enterprises, produced a series of defense droids, including the Class 1 Defense Unit. (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 Cafι. (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)

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)

this man was twenty-two years old when the Outbound Flight Project was destroyed, shortly before the onset of the Clone Wars. 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.

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)

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. (TOJC)

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. Ulte was also the highest-ranking bronwen of the Ibhaan'I tribe, which gave him a great deal of respent and control over the indigenous tribes.

He was distinguished by his bald pate, and the thick braid of hair which grew from the right side of the back of his head. (BSS)
Ultima  
this Imperial-I class Star Destroyer was the flagship of the armada dispatched by the Empire after the appearance of the Alderaanian armory ship Another Chance, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Darth Vader had already stationed forces in the Graveyard of Alderaan, as a part of Operation Yavin Kill Two, but they managed to capture a team of Alliance agents instead of Leia Organa and Luke Skywalker. The Alliance managed to escape from the Graveyard with the Another Chance before the Imperial ship could disable it. (GA)

Ultimate Instrument of Music  
this was another name for the Mindharp of the Sharu, used by those who misunderstood the artifact's true purpose. (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. Kar Vastor used an ancient form of ultrachrome in the construction of his vibro-shields; the metal was believed to have been taken from the hull of the crashed colony ship which brought the Korunnai's Jedi ancestors to Haruun Kal. (SHPT)
Ultra-Frequency Laserwave  
this highly-advanced, tight-beam communications medium was believed to have been developed by the Alliance, during the years following the Battle of Yavin. (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. Each ULAV was armed with twin light laser cannons, a concussion grenade launcher, and a single medium blaster cannon. (RASB, AEG)
Ultramesh  
this was a dense weave of solid fibers, which was produced by the Verpine during the years following the Great Sith War. Ultramesh was exceptionally useful in the manufacture of lightweight body armor. (KOTOR2)

Ulu Ulix  
this three-eyed, horned alien youth was the Padawan learner of Jedi Master Glynn-Beti, during the early stages of the Clone Wars. 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. (BF2, BF5, BF6)

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. This led the Umbarans to flee deeper into the Ghost Nebula, although they maintained an invisible information network to monitor the activities of th New Republic. (VD2, SWI70, UANT)

The Umboo Lightstation was the primary beacon for travelers who were flying to destinations within the Roon System. After Mungo Baobab was imprisoned by Governor Koong, he managed to escape from the Umboo Lightstation with the help of Noop Yeldarb. However, in the course of their escape, the lightstation suffered significant damage, and crashed into an asteroid. (DCAR, WOTC, SWDB, GORW)
Umboo Province  
this was one of the many city-states that were created on the planet Roon. Much of the province was infected with the Rooze virus, several years before the Battle of Yavin, when Governor Koong of the Tawntoom Province tried to eliminate any opposition from the inhabitants of Umboo. An antidote was later distributed throughout the Umboo Province to counteract the effects of the virus. (GORW, DCAR)
Umbool Provincial Patrol  
this was one of the many provincial police forces established on the planet Roon, after the death of Governor Koong allowed the provinces to have free rein over their territories. One of the first jobs performed by the Umbool Provincial Patrol was the clearing of the remains of Tawntoom Citadel, in an effort to locate any traps set by Koong. Once cleared, the Citadel would serve as the base of operations for the Council of Confederated Provinces. (WOTC, GORW)

Jabba had Shebba executed for his mistrust, and took possession of Umpass-stay. Umpass-stay became a spy for Jabba, helping keep tabs on the comings and goings of the beings in the Hutt's Tatooine palace. Umpass-stay and Ak-Rev were also two of Jabba's most trusted bodyguards, and the Hutt required them to play the drums with each band that came to the palace. 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. On the way, they were ambushed by a group of Tusken Raiders, who killed Ak-Rev but let Umpass-stay go free. After reaching Mos Eisley, Umpass-stay met up with Darson Kinderlot, who agreed to transport him to Hutt Space. Once there, Umpass-stay went to work for Jocoro Desilijic Tiure on Du Hatta. (RJSE, CCG9, MTSE, SWDB, SWI67)
Umrach  
this unusual creature was bioengineered by the Yuuzhan Vong, and set loose in the underworld of Coruscant, shortly after the alien invaders took control of the planet. Half reptile, half mollusk, the umrach stood on two stout legs. Its arms were insectile tentacles, and its head was a mass of waving tentacles. The mouth of the umrach was filled with spear-like teeth, which it used to impale it prey. For its large size, the umrach was surprisingly fast, and could catch a running person in no time. These creatures were designed to help eliminate any survivors from the Battle of Coruscant, so that the Yuuzhan Vong could transform Coruscant into a simulacrum of their long-lost homeworld, Yuuzhan'tar.

this female Sullustan was raised in relative luxury on a number of planets across the galaxy, as her parents worked as market analysts for the SoroSuub Corporation. Because her parents were usually too busy to woory about her, Umum learned to be self-reliant. While this helped her survive her youth, it was of little value when Umum herself became an agent for a tourism business based on Sullust.

Uncle Nyyv's Floating Eatery  
owned and operated by the Sullustan Nyyv during the height of the New Order, this popular restaurant was located on Streysel Island, on the planet Vaynai. The restaurant was unique in that it could move from place to place, allowing Nyyv to serve hot, homecooked meals to arriving spacers, often before they passed through customs. 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. The Eatery proved to be quite popular, as Nyyv understood that the only thing most starship crews wanted more than a warm bed as a good meal, after eating the chemicals manipulated by most onboard autochefs. (GMR8)

Underslung Rotary Blaster Carbine  
produced by Merr-Sonn during the height of the New Order, the Underslung Rotary was unusual in its design. First, true to its name, the Underslung Rotary had a ring of galven timed galven coils which rotated into firing position. This allowed individual barrels to coll before being used again, reducing the risk of the weapon overheating. Second, the Underslung was just that, resembling an inverted blaster. It was carried at the hip in an underhanded grip, and didn't need to be raised to be fired. While the weapon's appearance and unique firing mechanism made it popular when it was introduced, the Underslung soon lost its appeal, and became a collector's item. (AEG)

this Buzchub once contracted a group of New Republic agents to help him move cargo from Nigel IV to Lohopa II. Und'l maintained Imperial sympathies, and often worked for them. He was unaware of the Republic agents' affiliation, but then again he also believed he was moving spice. In fact, the remnants of the Empire were using him to transport lexonite to strategic worlds. Like many space-faring Buzchubs, Und'l wore a translator around his neck, in order to help him converse in Basic. (TSK)

Unduli, Luminara  
this Mirialan woman was one of the many Jedi Knights who were active in the years leading up to the Jedi Purge of Emperor Palpatine. A brown-skinned woman with luminous blue eyes and facial tattoos, Luminara was one of the Jedi Council's most trusted advisors. She also served the Old Republic, both as an advisor and as a Jedi. Luminara's tattooes were unusual, with a pattern of diamonds covering her chin and small patterns atop each knuckle. In the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo, Luminara provided assistance to Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, during their investigation of Arwen Cohl. 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. Upon hearing the order, the clone troops opened fire on Unduli, utterly destroying the defenseless Jedi Master. Luminara Unduli was portrayed by Mary Oyaya in Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones and in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith. (OWS, COD, SWI58, APS, SWDB, BF6, IS3)

More modern usage indicated a feminine warrior. (GCG)
Unet  
this was a species of four-armed, insectile beings. Many Unets fled their homeworld during the Clone Wars, after it was subjugated by Separatist forces.

Ungasan Cross Country  
this podracing event was held on the planet Ando Prime, during the early years of the New Order. It was sponsored by the crimelord Kaeline Ungasan, and was actually a front to cover up Ungasan's illegal mining operations on the planet. The race was distinct from other events in that it started from a different location each time it was run, providing a different course each time while covering up the mining activities. Ungasan hoped that the race would undercut the Desilijic clan's control on Ando Prime, in an effort to expand his own criminal empire. (GMR2)
Ungasan, Kaeline

When he found that Telos was so ecolocigally damaged that it was beyond repair, he decided to set out with a group of others to remove himself from the galaxy. Uni founded the BioCruiser and collected a group of followers from other damaged worlds. Two years after the Battle of Naboo, Uni allowed the Jedi Knights to come aboard the ship at the behest of the Old Republic Senate, to investigate allegations of brainwashing and coersion. He was not happy to learn that the Jedi investigators were Anakin Skywalker and his teacher, Obi-Wan Kenobi. The old hatred Kad Chun held for Obi-Wan surfaced, but Uni was careful to keep it in check. (JAD)

this corporation, based on the planet Telos some twelve years before the Battle of Naboo, was discovered to be a front for the work of Offworld Mining, as part of Xanatos' plans to gain personal power. UniFy was charged with restoring the parks and natural lands of the planet. To fund this operation, UniFy developed and sponsored the game Katharsis, which gave it almost complete control over the use of Telos' natural resources. UniFy went so far as to rig the games of Katharsis, always ensuring that at least one of the final three bettors was under their control. This allowed Xanatos to gain a foothold with Offworld, which would move in an mine Telos. Unfortunately for Xanatos, his former master Qui-Gon Jinn intervened and destroyed his plans. 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. They severely limited traffic into the Unknown Regions, but they also mapped large portions of the Unknown Regions as part of an ambitious mission developed by Grand Admiral Thrawn.

Their chance came when the crew of the FarStar put in at Q'Maere to restock their food supplies. She was then reunited with her brother, Cobb, and assisted Lowen in generating a prison riot. In the ensuing melee, the prisoners and the crew of the FarStar managed to escape from Q'Maere. However, as the FarStar moved deeper into the Kathol Rift, tensions between the crew and the prisoners grew strained, and Cobb and Corla began agruing over her devotion to Lowen Chase. When Chase called for a mutiny, Corla supported him by taking control of the Engineering center with the help of Kinakt Losron. (DARK, KR)
Un-Shamed

this double-pointed spear was one of the traditional weapons of the Ebranites. (SWJ11)
Unther, Michael  
this man served as a Rear Admiral in the Imperial Navy for more than twenty years, and was a combat veteran who commanded the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Victory before his retirement. The son of wealthy parents, Michael was sent to the Academy as a way to settle him down. He used his father's position to get himself assigned aboard a Strike-class cruiser upon graduation. When he sacrificed his ship to save a larger vessel, he was promoted and given command of the Victory. When his father was arrested for suspected treason against the Empire, and later disappeared, Michael began to doubt the true nature of the New Order. His o\own renown in battle saved Michael from any further investigation. After retiring, Michael continued to preach the party line, hiding his inner doubts and concerns from public view. He became one of the premier instructors at naval training centers, such as the one located in the Duluur Sector. Unther had an in-depth knowledge of Imperial procedures for blockading and conquering a planet. (SWJ2)
Untrilla  
this Delrakkin was ostensibly the leader of the resistance on her homeworld, during the height of the New Order. It was Untrilla who befriended a downed Alliance pilot during Admiral Termo's attack on Delrakkin City. Along with Gwann, Untrilla explained to the pilot that Captain Skeezer had been on Delrakkin a short while earlier, posing as an Alliance agent who wanted to begin planting alazhi on the planet. She later agreed to have her people help repair the pilot's freighter. (MIS3)
Unu  
this was one of the many hives that made up the Colony. Like all other hives within the Colony, the members of the Unu hive referred to themselves, as well as the entire nest, as Unu, and acted upon the Will of the Unu hive. The Unu hive rose to prominence some five years after the Galactic Alliance defeated the Yuuzhan Vong, when the former Jedi Knight Raynar Thul was rescued by the Yoggoy and joined to the hive. The influence of the former Jedi gave rise to a new hive within the Yoggoy, which became known as the Unu. Where the other hives of the Colony lacked any concern for any one individual, Thul's training made him stop to assist injured beings rather than simply leaving them to die and then feeding their flesh to the infantile grubs. Thul imparted his caring to those Yoggoy around him, and these new beings created the Unu hive. As the Unu began sharing with other hives, the Colony experienced a form of rebirth that led to its rapid expansion in the Unknown Regions. Thus, the Unu hive became "the nest of nests," and Raynar became UnuThul and the Prime Unu. (DN1)

Unut Poll  
this Arconan was the owner of Spaceport Speeders, in Mos Eisley. When he died, his role was taken up by another Arconan who was fleeing from the Empire. This Poll was a refugee fleeing the battles of the Galactic Civil War, in which the Empire murdered his wife and children. A quirky old codger with a heart of gold, the new Poll was also secretly sheltering homeless Arconans, giving them new identities away from Imperial eyes. Unut was not happy when Wioslea bought Luke Skywalker's old landspeeder for 2,000 credits, but worked through his anger. (GG7, CCG2, SWJ11)
UnuThul  
this was the name adopted by Raynar Thul, after he became fully integrated into the Yoggoy hive of the Colony and established the Unu hive. As UnuThul, he was able to allow the Unu hive to touch the Force, an act that gave the Colony more desire to grow and live beyond their once humble existence. Under UnuThul's guidance, the Colony expanded their settlements in the Unknown Regions, and created trading relationships with many planets in the Outer Rim. The expansion of the Colony worried the beighboring Chiss, who feared that the Colony might take over some of their worlds. Although tradition demanded that the Chiss could not attack first, they used subtler techniques to force the Colony to retreat. Many of the Colony's settlements were badly damaged by teams of Chiss who spread defoliants and other chemicals to destroy crops, in an effort to starve the hives. UnuThul, seeing the possible loss of life for the Colony, sent out a call through the Force to his old friends from the Jedi praxeum. The call was answered by the members of the team that had attacked a Yuuzhan Vong worldship near Myrkr, including Jaina Solo and Lowbacca. The Jedi left their missions to join UnuThul, and began working to drive off the Chiss. However, when the time came to vigorously defend the Colony, UnuThul demanded that the Jedi leave the Colony, claiming that the Kind didn't want their friends to be harmed. Throughout the years, however, UnuThul was unaware that Welk and Lomi Plo had also survived The Crash, and had established the so-called Dark Nest. Even after Luke Skywalker was attacked on Yoggoy, and Saba Sebatyne was attacked by Welk on Jwlio, UnuThul refused to believe that the Dark Nest existed. Ultimately, he was forced to confront the presence of an evil hive of the Colony when Luke Skywalker defeated Welk on Kr and brought his body as evidence to UnuThul. It was then that Raynar Thul's memories flooded back into his mind. He remembered saving both Welk and Lomi Plo, and became agitated when Lomi Plo's body was not found. He initially claimed that the Dark Nest was part of a devious Chiss plot, but was forced to admit that, in a disassociated way, his actions in saving the Dark Jedi probably led to the birth of the Gorog. He was somewhat vindicated when it was learned that the Chiss mentality aided the Gorog in their ability to maintain secrecy, and he ordered that no more Chiss were to be accepted as Joiners. In order to ensure this order was followed, UnuThul agreed to Leia Organa Solo's plan to relocate the Qoribu nests to a planet that was deeper in the Unknown Regions, well away from Chiss space. (DN1)
Unviseral Socket Interface  
this was the primary interface scheme used by droid manufacturers of the Old Republic to connect limbs, heads, and other parts to a droid's central processing unit.

Uogo'cor  
this planet, located in the Trax Sector, is the home of a number of outlaw tech stations. It was positioned just off the Trax Tube, and was populated mainly by pirates during its early history. It was the homeworld of the Uogo race, which was enslaved by the many pirate gangs that controlled the system. With the emergence of the Empire and its New Order, the pirates and much of the Uogo population were wiped out. In the native language of the Uogo, the planet is called "the home of the suffering ones." (GMK)

Upland Liberation Front  
this was the name used by the Korunnai guerillas who fought to free their people from the oppression of the Balawai, during the years following the Clone Wars. Often referred to as the ULF, this band was believed to have crystallized around the rogue Jedi Knight, Depa Billaba, and spiritual leader Kar Vastor just after the Battle of Geonosis. In order to draw the attention of Mace Windu and the rest of the Old Republic, the leaders of the ULF put together a scene of wanton death and torture, then recorded the entire scene and placed a data wafer with the recordings into the mouth of a dead woman. 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. The ULF was being held together by the sheer will of Kar Vastor, who had become the lor pelek of legend. Disease and the jungle were claiming as many Korunnai victims as the Balawai gunships that patrolled the jungles. 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. The fact of the matter, though, was that the ULF was simply a clan of surviving Korunnai who used guerilla tactics in an effort to avoid extinction. (SHPT)

Urgonox  
this unusual creature was one of just a handful of lifeforms which managed to survive the ecological devastation of the planet Clak'Dor VII. Bith scientists discovered that the urgonox was actually descended from a mutated urgrinox; a large portion of the "junk DNA" contained the cells of the urgrinox combined sympathetically with the genetic weapons unleashed by the ancient Bith, resulting the evolution of the urgonox. The pink-furred urgonox moved about on six legs, but its flexible spine allowed it to rear up on its four rear legs. The front two legs ended with thick claws, which the urgonox could use for fighting or digging. The head of the urgonox was dominated by its two large, blue eyes, which had eyelids that closed from front to back. The elongated snout of the urgonox gave the head a shovel-like appearance; the horny beak at the tip of the snout was used for digging up plants or manipulating carrion. The urgonox had no natural predators on Clak'Dor VII, but was not a predator itself. They were opportunistic, omnivorous scavengers, feeding on anything they encoutnered that did not move. It was rumored that the digestive enzymes of the urgonox were capable of rendering radioactive materials inert, although very little scientific evidence existed to prove this. (WOTC)
Ur-Greedle  
this insectoid herd animal was believed to have evolutionary links to the Geonosian race. Native to the planet Geonosis, the ur-greedle resembled a short Geonosian, with a blood-red exoskeleton and six wings. Their limbs ended in three-clawed hands that were used for digging into the sandy surface of their homeworld, where the ur-greedles congregated in large groups. Xenobiologists were divided on the intelligence level of the ur-greedles, although many considered them simple creatures. Ur-greedles became infamous in the wake of the Battle of Geonosis, as their attraction to shiny objects led them to acquire many of the lightsabers of fallen Jedi Knights before the forces of the Old Republic could recover them from the battlefields. (GORW)
Urgrinox  
this mammal once lived on the surface of Clak'Dor VII, until the Bith destroyed the planet with biological and genetic weapons. In a strange evolutionary mutation, the "junk DNA" contained in the cells of the urgrinox combined sympathetically with the genetic materials used in the Bith weaponry, creating an entirely new species that was later called the urgonox. (WOTC)
Urhal  
this man served as a Commander in the Army of the Republic during the early stages of the Clone Wars. Stationed aboard the Halleck, Commander Urhal was forced to assume command when Captain Trent was seriously injured during the mission to extract Jedi Masters Mace Windu and Depa Billaba from Haruun Kal.

this given name was common human males across the galaxy. (GCG)
Uridia  
this was one of the many lifeless moons which orbited the single gas giant in the Uridia System. Much of the moon's surface was strip-mined of uridium during the Old Republic, although a huge explosion at one of the mines destroyed nearly thirty percent of the moon's matter some 32 years before the Battle of Hoth. The moon was abandoned until the Empire took notice of it. Under the auspices of the Ando Project, they established a secret base where they planned to use Andoan mineral-fish to extract the volatile uridium. In order to protect the lab, the Empire surrounded the moon with a network of sixteen DTX satellites. (SWJ11)
Uridium  
this volatile ore was found in trace quantities on the moon of Uridia. It was refined to enhance the effects of laser weapons, but was dangerous to handle. (SWJ11)
Uriek  
a planet. (JQ4)
Uri-Los  
this young A'Mar boy was part of the group which participated in the Beastlord's Hunt that took place during the Galactic Civil War, just before Olianna was required to take part in The Vigil. During the hunt, Jeg was injured, and tradition held that the group could not seek aid from their fellow A'Mar. However, as Olianna was protected by a group of off-world adventurers, Uri'Los approached the adventurers and asked for help. Uri-Los and his companions realized that Jeg could be saved by drinking from the Wellspring, but this would also violate the basic laws of The Vigil and possibly shut off the Wellspring forever. Uri-Los agreed to keep any violation a secret, so long as Jeg was healed. In the end, the adventurers used more traditional medicines to keep Jeg alive until the night had passed. (WOA31)
Uris

Urno  
this young Balawai boy was one of five children rescued by Mace Windu from a lava flow in the jungle of Haruun Kal, shortly after the Battle of Geonosis, when he traveled to the planet to locate Depa Billaba. The children, led by Terrel Nakay, had been trying to return to their camp in a steamcrawler when it was caught by the lava. Urno, his brother Nykl, along with Keela and Pell Nakay, were taken in by Nick Rostu, after Windu left them to seek out answers in the jungle. (SHPT)
Urnon Mossu  
this Duros was a member of the Blank Look Gang during the last years of the Old Republic. He served as the gang's chief pilot, and was considered something of a hotshot speeder pilot during his career. When the Gang stole a collection of ancient Twi'leki pottery from the Galactic Museum, it was Urnon's abilities to steer an airspeeder that helped them escape the immediate vicinity. However, he was unable to skaee the pursuit dispatched by Ket Durgo and the Museum's security force, and Urnon was forced to crashland the speeder at the Royal Icqui Aquaria. (WOA21)
Urnsor'is  
this unusual race of parasitic creatures was discovered on the planet Kashyyyk, several years before the onset of the Clone Wars, although it was unknown whether they were native to the planet or not. An Urnsor'is egg was discovered by an adolescent Wookiee of the Myyydril tribe, and was allowed to hatch in their caves. The young creature, which resembled a large brain that moved about on a collection of tentacles, fled the Wookiee caves and found its own cave, where it seemed to spontaneously lay more eggs. These hatched over time, until they were discovered by the Myyydril Wookiees. These Wookiees witnessed their comrades being captured by the Urnsor'is, with the parasite latching itself onto the Wookiee's skull and feeding on them. The Wookiees named the creatures Urnsor'I which meant "mind pod" in their language. The Wookiees believed that the Urnsor'is were sentient, especially after the Urnsor'is began purposely capturing and killing more Wookiees. The Wookiees tried to fight back, but normal weapons seemed ineffective against the Urnsor'is. Only Nak'tra Crystals seemed to able to kill Urnsor'is. (SWGAL)
Uro-Ik V'alh Battleship  
this was the basic Yuuzhan Vong battleship, measuring some 2,240 meters in length and armed with eighty plasma projectors and many dovin basals. When fully staffed, the Uro-ik V'alh had a crew of 1,640 warriors. The ship was capable of transporting up to 3,150 troops and 16,480 metric tons of cargo. Like many of the Yuuzhan Vong's largest ships, the Uro-ik V'alh was an ovoid mass of yorik coral, with several arms sprouting from its hull to serve as docking bays for coralskippers. (NJOSB)
URoRRoR'R'R  
this Tusken Raider was the leader of his tribe. A skilled huntsman and sharpshooter, he led many raids on moisture farms in search of water. He also apprehended Luke Skywalker, when the youth travelled into the Jundland Wastes in search of R2-D2. URoRRoR'R'R was portrayed by stunt coordinator Peter Diamond in Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope. Note that the Ultimate Alien Enthology indicates that this Tusken Raider's name was UroRRuR'R'R.

Uroth  
this alien race is native to the planet Wizar II. They are a race of bipedal, squid-like creatures, and worship a vengeful god. When a StelProbe V exploration droid crashed Wizar II, the Uroths mistook the crustacean-shaped droid for their god. They willingly sacrificed themselves by throwing their bodies in the droid's path, hoping to be taken to a wondrous afterlife. (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. Urothko accepted the challenge, but was attacked by a fire-spirit known as a Graaa'shad. The spirit brought Urothko deep down into the forest, and prepared to kill him. 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. In the aftermath of the battle, Urothko pledged his life to Stalpaac, since the older Wookiee had risked his own life to save him. The story of Urothko's rescue quickly spread to other villages, and the tradition of the Wookiee life-debt was created. (TTSB)

this was the name of the long sticks used to play the sport of phrenbi. (BSS)
Urrdorf City  
this disk-shaped space station was the smallest of the twenty cities built in orbit around the planet Duro, after the surface of the planet was destroyed by industrialization. Tresina Lobi and Thrynni Vae discovered that many of the supply shipments which were meant for refugee cities on the surface of Duro were actually being re-routed to Urrdorf. During the confusion which resulted when the Yuuzhan Vong attacked Duro, Urrdorf City was the only orbital establishment to escape the destruction of the planet. It lacked a hyperdrive, but eventually got far enough beyond the Yuuzhan Vong strike force that the alien invaders simply let it go. (BP)
Urrjsh  
this Gamorrean command roughly translated to "stop." (SWJ14)
Urrooogh  
this Wookiee was employed as a bodyguard by Ru'up Benpo, during the early years of the New Order. (GORW)
UrrOr' Shurk  
this Tusken Raider was among a tribe that made repeated raids against the holdings of Gardulla the Hutt, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. Gardulla discovered that her own people were unable to locate and capture the tribe, so she issued a bounty for their capture. Jango Fett claimed several of these bounties when he was on Tatooine, trying to gain an audience with Gardulla and Jabba. (BH)
Urror'Ruur

Urshant, Andus  
the eldest member of a family which paid a group of Alliance agents to transport them off Demophon, Andus was a research technician with the Shankti Drive Works. As such, he was almost guaranteed passage off the planet, but his family was not included in those plans. So, they hired the Alliance agents to get them all off at once, before the G'uotr Network and/or YTumleh Navigation could apprehend them. (SN)
Urshant, Fianna  
Andus Urshant's 6-year-old daughter. (SN)
Urshant, Zoam  
Andus Urshant's wife, and a research programmer with Tumleh Navigation. She was eight months pregnant with their third child when Demophon was destroyed. She was working on the Tumleh hyperdrive project, which would allow a ship to fly around gravity wells while still in hyperspace. She offered the information to the G'uotr Network as payment for transport off Demophon, but had a change of heart at the last minute. This meant that the Network wanted to apprehend her as well as the officials at Tumleh, who had monitored her downloading of the project's data. Thus, the Urshants turned to the Alliance agents on Demophon for help getting off the planet. (SN)

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.

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

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)

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)

Ussa  
this city was the capital of the planet Bellassa. It was arranged in concentric circles that surrounded seven beautiful lakes, with wide thoroughfares connecting each circle. Houses and buildings were kept as low as possible, so as to preserve the natural beauty of the surrounding environment. During the year following the end of the Clone Wars, more than half the population of Ussa was arrested on various charges, after the Empire removed the elected government and installed their own governors. Various demonstrations led to many of the arrests, which were staged near the planet's primary spaceport. About a year after the Clone Wars, the Imperial forces on Bellassa realized that many of the demonstrations were spurred on by the words of Ferus Olin, and they set out to put a stop to it. With the so-called Order 37, hundreds of citizens were arrested and threatened with execution if Ferus didn't turn himself in. Ferus, aided by Obi-Wan Kenobi, was able to free the prisoners and escape Bellassa before any harm could come to them. (LJ1)

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 once-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, entire 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. Utapau was encircled by a ring of moons of various sizes, which dominated the skies during both daylight and nighttime. (PJSB, OWS, ROF, LEV, VD3, E3N, SWDB)
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)
UT-AT  
officially known as the Unstable Terrain Artillery Transport, the UT-AT was a 23.8-meter-long walker that was developed for the Grand Army of the Republic by Kuat Drive Yards and Mekuun, during the height of the Clone Wars. Its design was inspired after larger AT-TE and SPHA-T walkers caused massive landslides on Agamar with their constant, pounding steps. The UT-AT was developed from the original walker plans of KDY, which were augmented by repulsorlift technology from Mekuun, to create a vehicle that was more of a tank than a walker. In place of legs, the UT-AT moved about on eight pairs of repulsorlift "skis", each with an independent suspension mechanism that allowed the skis to constantly adjust to changing terrain. The skis kept the UT-AT stable while four massive repulsorlift engines in the forward section provided propulsion. The UT-AT required a pilot and five gunners to operate, and could accommodate up to twenty clone troopers. However, much of its interior space was dedicated to the onboard weapons systems, which included side- and top-mounted heavy turbolasers and four turret-mounted laser cannons. The forward three weapons earned the UT-AT its nickname of "Trident." Because of its ability to negotiate rough or unstable terrain, the UT-AT was often deployed on the front lines of a Republic army, clearing a path for other vehicles to follow. However, these vehicles were considerably slower than their larger cousins, and were subject to huge amounts of enemy fire. (SWDB)
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)

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. Master Wynn was training an apprentice named Yuthura during this time, until a group of Jedi Knights managed to infiltrate the academy by posing as Sith apprentices, shortly after the Great Hunt. After gaining Master Wynn's confidence, the Jedi revealed themselves. Wynn and Yuthura attacked the Jedi, but both were defeated in combat. (KOTOR)

Uthil Ren'Kacal  
this Gotal bounty hunter was one of a group contracted by the Empire to hunt down the Alliance agents who were investigating the construction of the Bissillirus Resupply Base. He was more of a tracker than a hunter, and welcomed the chance to work with a team in order to ensure the capture of the agents. Uthil was known as a polite and diplomatic, though deceitful, bount hunter. (GMK)
Uthori Breix  
this creature was native to the planet Pellastrallas. (COG)
Uthorrferrell Cartha  
this man was the only son of Antbbianplourr III, and ascended to the throne of Eaittu following his father's death. Like his father, Uthorrferrell was unable to keep Eiattu free of Imperial control. Uthorferrell ruled Eiattu for five years before the Priamsta rose up against him. 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." (SWJ14)

this race is native to the planet Uukaablis. While technologically primitive, the Uukaablians have developed a large amount of medical skill and knowledge. Various factions of Uukablians waged a civil war for many generations before their leaders agreed toa a ceasefire. All weaponry was placed aboard a cargo ship and launched into the system's sun. 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.

His scales were a bright green color, with a red and white diamond pattern woven in. He had sharp teeth and a pink, snakelike tongue. Uul-Rha-Shaan grew up running weapons for a large smuggling ring on Tiss-sharl. He was introduced to the act of killing another being, actually did it himself, and found that he enjoyed it in a very short period of time. When his hitch was up with the smugglers, he set out on his own, becoming one of his planet's most famous gunfighters and assassins. 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-Rha-Shan saw the opportunity to guard the "soft, stupid human" as a way to earn lots of credits for little work. Years later, he was killed by Han Solo aboard Stars' End after the facility was launched into the air on a parabolic course. Uul-Rha-Shan set out to find and kill Han, then escape the plummeting central tower. However, Han was able to shoot Uul-Rha-Shan shortly before the tower crashed back to the surface. (CSA, HSE, GG12)

Uumufalh Gunship  
this Yuuzhan Vong warship was the closest analog to the gunships of the New Republic Navy. They were used to escort Suuv Ban D'Krid cruisers into battle, lending their support with forty plasma projectors and a wealth of dovin basals. Despite their size - measuring an average of 615 meters in length - the Uumufalh gunship did not carry coralskippers, and they lacked the ability to generate an interdiction field. These ships were crewed by 335 Yuuzhan Vong warriors, and could transport up to 840 troops and 1,380 metric tons of cargo into battle. (NJOSB)
Uunell  
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 "slender". (GCG)
Uunu  
this Yuuzhan Vong female was a member of the Shamed Ones. She was part of the work force which was sent to Yavin 4 to assist the Shapers in determining the source of The Force. Uunu was responsible for raising and harvesting lambents, and trained Anakin Solo in their care while he was posing as a slave during his rescue of Tahiri Veila. Like many of the Yuuzhan Vong who arrived on Yavin 4, Uunu had grown up on a worldship, and had never seen a real world. (EVC, NJOSB)
Uunun  
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 "delicate". (GCG)
Uurbahhahvoovv Joiners & Artisans  
this small guild produced some of Kashyyyk's most sophisticated and safety-conscious escape pods, during the last decades of the Old Republic. What made this group unusual was that many of these escape pods were homemade, designed to meet the needs and expectations of specific owners. These escape pods were then installed into other starships, replacing the stock escape pods with something more durable and reliable. (X3)
Uurk  
this Gamorrean was atypical of his species. He had a strong sense of honor and duty, and served as a lawkeeper on the planet Emmer during the height of the Galactic Civil War.

Uwana Buyer  
this was the name of Talon Kaarde's personal yacht, used by Karrde and Tapper Quelev when they went to Tropis-on-Varont. It was a modified SoroSuub Luxury 5000 pleasure yacht, which Karrde had completely gutted and rebuilt. Only the original superstructure remained to indicate its roots. Easily the most luxurious and extravagant ship in his fleet, the Uwana Buyer was equipped with a full kitchen, gaming area, four staterooms, and its own spa. An upgraded hyperdrive and a set of Starchaser Mk. III sublight drives gave the incredible speed. It was armed with a pair of heavy laser cannons and an ion cannon. The Uwana Buyer could accommodate up to fourteen passengers and 150 metric tons of cargo, and required a crew of five to operate. Like most of the names used by Kaarde during this period, it was a somewhat farcical name meaning, "You want to buy her?" (EGC, SWJ1, GMR4)
Uwlla  
this given name was commonly given to female human children throughout the galaxy. (GCG)
Uwritz  
this was the Snivvian word for "poetry." (HNN5)

Uzalg, Wonn  
this special attache' from the Alliance was dispatched to Kuat Drive Yards, after Commander Rozhdenst had made contact with Kodir of Kuhlvult. Fooled by all of Kodir's twisting of the facts, Rozhdenst and Uzalg agreed to ensure Kuat had an accident, thereby installing Kodir herself as the leader of KDY. 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)

V-07  
this was a model of hydrospanner produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. (PSG)
V1  
Industrial Automaton's pilot droid series, the V1 was built to replace the R2 series. The R2 series was built as an assistant to a living pilot, and was used primarily in starfighters. The V1 droids were capable of performing an R2 unit's functions as well as piloting the ship. The V1, however, did not have any starship maintenance programming, unlike the R2 unit. The V1 was used on missions to hostile environments, when a living pilot would be harmed or killed. (RASB)
V-1  
this was one of two Imperial TIE Defender facilities destroyed during the Galactic Civil War. (XWN)
V-1  
this Merr-Sonn thermal detonator was part of the standard weaponry used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems to arm their battle droids, during the height of the Clone Wars. It later found its way into the arsenal of the Grand Army of the Republic, and was a favored explosive of the clone troopers. (LAWS, SWI84)
V-1 Droid  
this was a series of droids who were programmed to fly freighters and other non-military starships. (WS)
v-150 Planet Defender  
this planetary defense ion cannon was manufactured by Kuat Drive Yards. The main weapon was housed in a spherical shell on the surface, although the power generator was buried nearly a mile in the ground beneath it. This allowed for remote operation of the weapon, which was designed to disable an attacking ship in orbit. This also placed the v-150's power generator in a relatively cool position, although special arrangements usuallt had to be made to ensure the v-150 didn't overheat. The Alliance used one to defend the Echo Base on Hoth, while another was also used by Garm Bel Iblis to defend his Peregrine's Nest base. (ESB, RPG, DFR, EGW, IWST, NEGW)
V-16  
this Alliance sleeper cell was maintained on Malthor by Berren Sid Te', during the Galactic Civil War. As was typical of Alliance cells, no member knew anyone else in the cell, other than their direct contact. V-16 was most impressive as a cell, since none of its members knew that Sid himself was working for the Alliance. (CRO)
v-180 Planet Defender  
this defensive, planetary ion cannon had nearly twice the firepower of its predecessor, the v-150. It also had its own power generator. (CSA)
v-188 Penetrator  
Speizoc's heavy anti-artillery weapon, the v-188 was designed during the Clone Wars. It was among the heaviest energy weapons ever to see action; this often required them to be fixed in placed atop the Aratech 440 super-heavy armored chassis. The only drawback to the v-188 was that the energy bolts it created dissipate quickly after being shot, requiring the target to be fairly close. (ISB)
V-19  
this was a model of landspeeder built by SoroSuub during the last decades of the Old Republic. It measured 5.7 meters in length, and could carry a pilot and three passengers, as well as ten kilograms of cargo. It was one of several speeders which were produced in both civilian and military versions, in an effort to appeal to a wider range of customers. The speeder's upgraded hull plating made it more durable in combat, but it also made the V-19 popular in urban areas were collisiions were common. (SON, NEGV)
V-19 Torrent  
this Slayn and Korpil starfighter was developed as part of the massive build-up of weapons and starships that accompanied the formation of the Army of the Republic, dring the months leading up to the Clone Wars. They were first tested at the Battle of Geonosis, and their speed and maneuverability made them a mainstay of the Old Republic's war machine. The V-19 was originally conceived of as a short-range fighter, but hyperdrives were soon added as the Republic needed quicker response time to arenas of battle. Armed with blaster cannons and missile launchers, the V-19 was easily distinguished by its split-wing design. Essentially a flying wing, the V-19 could take off and land vertically when the wings were in the folded-up position. When fully deployed, the wings added superior maneuverability. (SWDB)
V1-CH  
this droid worked for the reporter Andor Javin, and performed many of the complex decipherings used to identify the newsnet rogue Cynabar. (SWJ8)
V-2

V-3 Vanguard  
this model of holdout blaster was produced by Vector Technologies. (WSV)
V30  
this was a specific size of landspeeder mixture filter, used to control the amount of fuel being supplied to the repulsorlift engine. It produced a thick mixture. (CFG)
V-35  
the V-35 was SoroSuub's enclosed, family-model landspeeder, first introduced during the last decades of the Old Republic. Also known as the Courier, the 3.8-meter-long V-35 was built to be reliable, inexpensive, and unremarkable, and it achieved all three goals. It had a thick, arrow-shaped hull that allowed large amounts of cargo to be stored fro transport. The canopy opened to allow a pilots and up to two passengers to be seated. Three large thrust turbines were mounted on the rear deck. Like many older speeder models, the V-35's rear sections were dominated by the repulsorfield generators, so all cargo had to be stored in the front sections. Its engine system gave the V-35 a top speed of 100 kilometers per hour. (CCG, EGV, SOT, NEGV)

V5-T  
this was a series of transport droids produced by Veril Line Systems during the Galactic Civil War. Classified as fifth-degree droids, the V5-T was designed to assist transport owners in determinign the faster routes and piloting repulsorcraft. (FOP, GFT)
V-6  
this droid was owned by the Herglic gambler, Doune. V-6's primary responsibility was to maintain a tab on Doune's winnings, so that no other being could swindle the Herglic. (TFNR)
V-6 Haywire Grenade  
produced by Merr-Sonn during the height of the Clone Wars, the V-6 Haywire grenade produced an intense electromagnetic pulse when it exploded. This allowed the clone troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic to lob V-6 grenades into approaching units of battle droids, rendering the droids inert when the pulse fried their circuitry. (LAWS)
V6 Pilot Droid  
manufactured by Industrial Automaton during the height of the New Order, the V6 series of droid was designed to replace the somewhat successful V1 series. These droids could hold more hyperspace jump coordinates that a standard astromech, and had enhanced programming which allowed it to take control and fly a starship, but they were poorly programmed for combat flight. (FTD)
V-6d  
Merr-Sonn produced this portable mortar launcher for use by the stormtroopers of the Empire. (LAWS)
V-798  
this was the Imperial designation of the planet Vaal, after a relay outpost was established on the planet severl years before the Battle of Yavin. (SWESH)

VA-13 Sweeper  
this modifed snubfighter was developed by the Daedalus Gas Mines corporation to collect radiocarbon molecules from the atmospheres of gas giant planets. The Sweeper was fitted with a ten-meter-wide trough on its nosecone. The trough was equipped with a fine-toothed mesh that was made from a metal which attracted and held the radiocarbons and funneled them into a small container for later processing. (LFC)
Vaa, Seviss  
this Dark Jedi was one of many who flocked to join the ranks of the Brotherhood of Darkness, serving under Lord Kaan durnig the decades leading up to the Battle of Ruusan. Vaa was a noted scholar who had read through the alchemical texts of Naga Sadow, and was one of Lord Kaan's most trusted underlings. Vaa wanted to augment Kaan's forces by creating an army of mutated beasts, and spent a good deal of time working on the remote world of Aduba-3. There, he took indigenous lizards and imbued them with the Dark Side of the Force, eventually creating the creature known as the Behemoth. The Behemoth was incomplete, however, when the Battle of Ruusan took place, and Vaa was forced to bury his experiments in deep caves until he returned. When Vaa was killed in the battle, the Behemoth and other experiments remained in suspended animation for centuries, until a settler known as the Old One set it free. (GMR4)
Vaabesh  
this young Gand Jedi Padawan was part of the task force dispatched to the planet Jabiim, during the height of the Clone Wars. Like many of the students who were forced into battle, Vaabesh lost his Master to the Jabiimite rebels. The surviving Padawans banded together and did their best to hold off the advance of Alto Stratus, and managed to hold their own against his Separatist forces for several days. However, during the fighting, Vaabesh's containment suit was breached by enemy fire. He lived long enough to ensure that Aubrie could recover his lightsaber and use it in combat against Stratus, then he died. (RBJ)
Vaal  
this ancient prophet delivered a series of predictions and prophecies to the galaxy, some 800 years before the Battle of Yavin. (GMR8)
Vaal  
this planet was controlled by the Empire, during the height of the New Order. Designated as relay outpost V-798, it was here that Darth Vader landed in the wake of the Battle of Yavin and the destruction of the first Death Star. Any approach to the planet was treacherous at best, since Vaal's orbit intersected several asteroid fields. The planet itself was covered with vast savannahs, which were home to a wide range of animal life. Because of its regular passages through the asteroids, Vaal was often struck by meteors and other chunks of debris, which wreaked havoc with sensors. (SWESH)
Vaapad  
this lightsaber combat was developed by Mace Windu, with the assistance of Sora Bulq, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. It was an aggressive collection of maneuvers, and was considered to be part of the Form VII category. As such, the Vaapad training was considered extremely close to the Dark Side of the Force, and was forbidden to all but the most skilled of Jedi Masters. To Master Windu and his apprentice, Depa Billaba, Vaapad was more than a combat style; it was a state of mind in which the fighter opened themselves so fully to the Force to fight their opponent that they drew power from both the light and dark sides of the Force. The style was named for vaapad creature found on Sarapin. It was all but abandoned after Sora Bulq was consumed by the art in what became known as the blood fever, and himself abandoned the Jedi Order. Master Windu later explained to Obi-Wan Kenobi that Vaapad had originally been created as a way for him to channel his own darkness into a weapon of the light. While this was an adaptation to weakness within Master Windu, it was a potential danger for those Jedi who were unable to control the Dark Side of the Force. (J1, NEGC, SHPT, E3N)
Vaapad  
this multi-armed creature, native to the planet Sarapin, was known for its relentless attack patterns. Most vaapad had at least seven distinct, tentacular arms, which they used in a horrifically fast attack to stun and kill their prey. The largest vaapad ever caught and killed had twenty-one arms; the only way to know exactly how many arms a vaapad had was to kill it and examine the body. This characteristic attack style led the Jedi Master Mace Windu to name the Vaapad style of lightsaber combat after this creature. (NEGC, SHPT)
Vaargaz, Jah-kil  
this woman worked as Kram Balut's primary contact on the planet Coruscant, during the years following the Battle of Naboo.

Vaathkree  
this planet - the third in the Vaath'kror System - was a harsh, volcanic world which has been - and continues to be - hit by meteors on a regular basis. Much of the atmosphere is filled with corrosive, poisonous chemicals. Nonetheless, several sentient species have evolved on the planet. The Vaathkree are the primary race, having built domed cities in which to live. These cities are actually living, organic constructs known as Vnals. The Stoneslingers are a small race of living rock, and eventually evolve into the Vaathkree themselves. Note that Secrets of the Sisar Run claims this planet is named Vaath'kror, after its sun. (TTSB, SSR)
Vaathkree  
an alien race native to the planet Vaathkree, these beings evolved in the harsh environment of their homeworld. The Vaathkree are the adult form of Stoneslingers, and resemble humanoids made from stone and metal. In reality, they are fleshy creatures encased in an armor-like covering of living metal or stone. Each Vaathkree matures from a Stoneslinger after twenty years. They are known for their religion, which is centered around bartering and the art of making The Deal. The average Vaathkree can live to be over 300 standard years of age, which included twenty or more years as a Stonesinger. (HTTE, TTSB, AE)

Vaath'kror  
this star was the central body in the Vaath'kror System. (SSR)
Vaa-tumor  
this affliction was specific to Yuuzhan Vong master Shapers, and was believed to have been a piece of brain matter of the goddess Yun-Ne'Shel herself. Each Master had to go through a period of personal sacrifice, during which a piece of the Vaa-tumor was implanted in their body. The pain had to be endured, as the Vaa-tumor supposedly altered the Shaper's own cells and brought her closer to Yun-Ne'Shel. After the period of sacrifice, the Vaa-tumor was removed, and the Shaper was changed forever. (EVC)
VAB-927  
this was the identification number of a Bothan prisoner, held on the first Death Star in detention block AA-23, just prior to the destruction of Battle of Yavin. (WOTC)
Vac Attack  
this was the brand name of Golan Arms' Mk-127 wrist-mounted blade launcher. It was capable of using firing three small, circular blades at a target in rapid succession, but then needed to be reloaded. The original design of the Vac Attack Mk-127 was done by the Vacutech Combine. (ROE, AEG)

this dark, scary valley was located on the Forest Moon of Endor. (ECAR)
Vacasor  
this third-rate Devaronian merchant purchased the Merasy from Geld Bernar, and set out to make his fortune as a trader. Like many Devaronian males, Vacasor had a deep sense of wanderlust, and spent much of his career simply circling the Rim worlds. The only smart thing he did - and the only reason he remained solvent - was to hire Naneb Pefan as a co-pilot. (SS)
Vacca  
this man, a native of the planet Alderaan, was one of the few Alderaanians who joined the Empire. Dr. Vacca was the noted scientist who developed Project Dead Eye. After the destruction of Alderaan, Dr. Vacca began to have serious doubts about his loyalty to the Empire, while many surviving Alderaanians questioned his continued support of the Empire. The Alliance set out to locate Dr. Vacca, after Lyda Skims uncovered evidence of Dead Eye's existence, in an effort to convince him to abandon the project altogether. Vacca's own convictions were put to the test when many of his Drall supporters were killed by Imperial stormtroopers, but this action only served to steel his resolve to defect. He was located by a group of Alliance operatives, led by Leia Organa, on the planet Corellia, and decided to turn over his work to the Alliance. (SWGAL)
Vachead  
this was a slang term used by Imperial Navy personnel to describe a space-based TIE Fighter pilot. It was often used in a derogatory manner, as if to say that space-based pilots were somehow inferior to ground-based pilots. (SWJ10)

Vacuum Ooglith  
similar in most respected to a normal ooglith cloaker, the vacuum ooglith could be worn by a Yuuzhan Vong who needed to exist for a short time in the vacuum of space. The vacuum ooglith provided not only protection against decompression and a stable supply of air, it also provided enough heat to keep the Yuuzhan Vong's body from freezing. (NJOSB)
VACX  
an ablative coating used to cover dropships before atmospheric re-entry, VACX will burn off during entry. Thus, it must be replaced prior to each drop. VACX helps raise the dropship's hull strength. (ISB)

Vadon Lenitor  
this only child of the noted ghest slayer Kalon Lenitor, this female Rodian grew up in relative ease because of her father's legendary exploits. Nevertheless, she put a great deal of hard work into her schoolwork and her labors, and her parents fostered her beliefs in earning one's keep. Following in her father's footsteps, Vadon became known as a ghest slayer in her own right. Eventually, though, Vadon decided to try her hand at bounty hunting, and was modestly successful before she joined the Granse Confederacy as a full-time hunter. She was believed to have taken part in the break-in of the Alliance base on Mapuzo, but no proof was ever found to implicate her. (AIR)
Vae, Thrynni  
this young woman was a student of the Force, and trained as a padawan under Tresina Lobi during the early years of the New Republic. However, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Tresina and Thrynni were dispatched to Duro to watch over the shipping concerns who were supplying the refugees who were working on the Duro reclamation project. Tresina started her investigation on Bburru, and during the search Thrynni disappeared. It was later learned that their investigation had hit pretty close to the heart of the matter between the Duros High House, CorDuro Shipping, and the Peace Brigade, and Thryni was captured and murdered. Luke Skywalker discovered that Thrynni had been beaten to death by a group of Gamorrean thugs, then dumped out an airlock. (BP)
Vaecta  
this withered Yuuzhan Vong female was the chief priestess involved with the invasion of the galaxy, reporting directly to Tsavong Lah aboard the Sunulok. In her position as priestess, though, she was beholden to no being but Overlord Shimrra, and refused to defer to the Warmaster. (BP, SBS)

Vaetes, D'Arc  
this man served the Old Republic as a Colonel in the Grand Army of the Republic, and was the base commander of the Rimsoo Seven military hospital on Drongar during the height of the Clone Wars. Vaetes was known as a first-class surgeon, in addition to being a career officer who had given his entire life to serving the Old Republic. He was a veteran of a number of skirmishes, both military and political, and was not easily fooled. Thus, when Jedi Padawan Barriss Offee came to him with the belief that there was a spy in the Rimsoo Seven compound, and that the spy had been responsible for the loss of large amounts of bota, Vaetes demanded more than just her intuition as proof. Offee was unable to provide more proof, leaving Vaetes with little real ability to address the situation. He agreed to step up the existing patrols, but had no more resources to spend on pursuing her theory. (MBS, MJH)
Vaffu  
this tree, valued for its deep red wood, was native to the planet Lamaredd. (GMR7)
Vagaari  
this race of beings was native to a remote world in the Unknown Regions of the galaxy. Over their history, the Vagaari conquered or enslaved large portions of space in the region of the planet Crustai, spreading their influence to the borders of Chiss space. They took what they wanted and destroyed what they didn't, and many races were erased from history because of the predation of the Vagaari. The Chiss, despite their military prowess, was worried about the advances of the Vagaari, but military doctrine forbade them from making pre-emptive strikes against them. The short-statured Vagaari were distinguished by their large, violet eyes, flattened ears located near the crown of their skulls, and the two mouths that were located along the jaw. The skin of a Vagaari was tan in color, with golden swirls near the mouth and cheeks. With their reappearance during the Outbound Flight mission, the Vagaari were discovered to have advanced technology for suspending a living being's body functions. They built miniature suspension units to render their wolvkils inanimate, and used larger devices to hide additional pirates in specialized chambers aboard their ships. The Chiss, through the machinations of Aristocra Formbi, maneuvered Bearsh and his Vagaari into a position where they could make their own attack on the Chaf Envoy, hoping to lure them into making the first move. Unfortunately, that move came later, when the Vagaari tried to steal the D-Four Dreadnaught from the remains of the Outbound Flight. (SQ)
Vagaari  
this unusual language was spoken by the Vagaari race, and was formed from singsong tones produced in a two-part harmony because of their two mouths. (SQ)
Vagaari Empire  
this was the name given to the civilization of the Vagaari people. Shortly before the Yuuzhan Vong launched their invasion of the galaxy, the Vagaari decided to launch an attack against the Chiss who had destroyed their forces some fifty years earlier. The plan was to steal droids from the remains of the Outbound Flight Project, using them as templates from which to build a massive droid army. When Estosh and his forces launched an attack on the Chaf Envoy and later, the Brask Oto Command Station, the Chiss were free to launch their own attack. However, they had no idea where the Vagaari base was. Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade Skywalker were able to supply that information, having witnessed Estosh keying in the information shortly before he died. The waiting ambush fleet was summarily destroyed, eliminating the remainder of the immediate Vagaari threat. (SQ)

Vagh Rodiek  
this unusual race of slaves was created by the Yuuzhan Vong Shaper Taug Molou, who had been ordered to turn the Rodian people into slaves after Rodia was subjugated by the alien invaders. Rather than inserting yorik coral implants into the Rodians, Taug Molou spent months vivisecting thousands of Rodians, examining every aspect of their physiology, before learning how to alter it to his needs. The Vagh Rodiek moved about in crab-like fashion on all-fours, since its arms had been replaced with long, bony implants. The ridge of spines that ran along a Rodian's skull had been modified to serve as long quills which protected the neck and upper spine from attack. The bones which replaced the arms of a Rodian were shaped into huge hooks, which could impale and grasp an individual with ease. (GMR8)

Vago Gejalli Thokka  
this was a noted Hutt crimelord who was born into the Gejalli kajidic. However, after his mother's criminal empire was crushed by Popara the Hutt, Vago was adopted into the Anjiliac clan. He was never allowed to use the Anjiliac name in his title, since Popara never fully trusted Vago. However, Popara used Vago as the Anjiliac clan's primary aide-de-camp and middleman, since Vago was one of the few Hutts who was willing to speak the Basic language when necessary. In the wake of Popara's death, Vago took action to ensure that his killer was found. Believing that Mika had something to do with the event, Vago arranged to have Popara's freelance agents freed from prison and secretly dispatched to hunt down Popara's killer and the source of the tempest spice. For this, Vago was captured and held prisoner by Zonnos, and his H-3PO droids were used to lure the agents into a trap. After Zonnos went mad and was captured, Vago disappeared. Unknown to most beings, Vago had actually been captured by Mika and shipped off to Varl, so as to eliminate his meddlings. Within the tempest production facility on the Tempest, Vago was guarded by Dai and Koya Utrila, until the two sisters learned the truth behind Mika's treachery. They let Vago go free, and helped the agents hired by Popara to defeat Mika and his forces. (TF, WOTC)

Vahaba  
this red giant star is orbited by several planets and the Vahaba Asteroid Belt. It is believed that a huge comet or stray asteroid collided with one of Vahaba's larger planets, creating the huge ring of debris which became the asteroid belt. It was strategically important for the ores which were found in the asteroids, and the system was known for the incredible skills of its metal workers. The belt and its system were located in a cluster of stars not far from Halmad. (SOC)
Vahaba Asteroid Belt  
this ring of asteroids was located in the Vahaba System. Scientists believed that the asteroid belt was formed when one of Vahaba's larger planets was struck by a comet or stray asteroid. The belt itself is quite large, with pieces of planetary debris strewn across a vast distance. This makes navigation through the belt hazardous. It was targetted for assault by the New Republic task force hunting Warlord Zsinj, but the commanding officers chose to strike at Comkin Five first. Han Solo then took the Mon Remonda to Vahaba, where he was met by Admiral Rogriss and the Stellar Web, in the hopes of trapping Zsinj and the Iron Fist in the system. The plan nearly succeeded, but Zsinj's forces inflicted as much damage as they took, and were able to escape. (SOC)

Vaklu and his supporters believed that the queen had lost touch with the general population, and was unwilling to listen to their needs and concerns. Vaklu and his supporters launched a massive coup attempt, and nearly captured the Queen. Only the timely intervention of The Exile saved her, as the former Jedi fought with the Royalists to end the battle. Vaklu himself was captured, but Queen Talia was forced to have him shot for his actions, fearing that he would escape from prison. It was later discovered by The Exile that it had been Tobin who was behind General Vaklu's bid for power, as Tobin was a minor Sith Lord who was working for Darth Nihilus. (KOTOR2)

Valadon  
this humanoid being was one of the founders of the criminal gang known as the Slams.

The gang was briefly imprisoned at the Greylands Security Complex on Tentator, but managed to escape about two years before the Battle of Geonosis. Valadon was known as a tremendous flirt, and often wore provocative clothing to keep other beings off their guard. Several years before the Battle of Geonosis, Siri Tachi impersonated Valadon 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 Siri and the Jedi. When Zan Arbor packed up her operations and moved to Coruscant with Roy Teda and Granta Omega, Valadon and the Slams went with them. Their part in the mission was to disrupt the ceremony in honor of the passage of the All Planet Relief Fund legislation. Roper and Valadon were disguised as Blue Guards during the event, which allowed them to gain easy access to the vertex crystal that served as the financial basis for the Fund. They were apprehended by Obi-Wan and Anakin Skywalker, and held for questioning. It was revealed that the real plan had nothing to do with stealing vertex, but rather the kidnapping of Chancellor Palpatine himself. (JQ8, JQ9)
Valance the Hunter  
see Valance, Beilert (MC16, MC27, MC29, SWMW)
Valance, Beilert  
a native of the remote world of Shinbone, Valance was an orphan who claimed that his parents had died from the Hardan Plague. He enlisted in the Imperial armed forces, and became a decorated soldier for his efforts in suppressing the Nembus Sector. A former stormtrooper, Valance was fighting in an Outworld skirmish when an Alliance serial torpedo struck his platoon. The blast nearly killed him, but his soldiers managed to bring him to Telos-4. In order to keep him alive, the doctors there cyborged much of his body. When he awoke, he was angry and disoriented, and he hated what had been done to him. He distrusted droids, and the fact that he had become a cyborg made him hate droids even more. However, he decided to live, and left Imperial service to become a bounty hunter. After gathering a group of mercenaries and bounty hunters to assist him, Valance attacked the Outworld base at Telos-4, destroying everything in sight to erase his past and destroy some droids. During the fighting, the team learned of the efforts of Han Solo and Luke Skywalker in the Battle of Yavin. He set out tohunt down Skywalker, dreaming of killing Luke because he had befriended R2-D2 and C-3PO. However, Valance acted on faulty information, and traveled to Aduba-3 because he misinterpreted the data. He tried to kill Jimm the Starkiller Kid, who bore a striking resemblance to Skywalker, but his efforts were thwarted by Jaxxon and Amaiza. In the skirmish on Aduba-3, Valance lost his entire team, and angrily fled the planet when he realized that he had been after the wrong man. He recovered on the planet Junction, where he was briefly employed as a bounty hunter by Skinker. It was duringthis time that Valance finally confronted Luke Skwyalker, who was on Junction to obtain replacement parts for the Alliance's droids. When C-3PO put itself between the two in order to protect Luke, Valance discovered something he hadn't considered: that even in a galaxy of droid-haters, a droid might care enough about a living being to sacrifice itself to save them. Unable to reconcile this new information, Valance allowed Skywalker and his droid to leave unharmed, and spent the next months ensuring that Darth Vader never discovered Luke's identity. To this end, Valance traveled to Centares to eliminate Tyler Lucian, only to be confronted by Vader himself. In the fight which ensued, Valance was badly injured, but maintained a grip on Vader as the Dark Lord pressed his advantage. Seeing that he had few options left, Valance threw himself into Rubyflame Lake, hoping to drag Vader in with him. Vader, however, used his lightsaber to cut off Valance's hand, and the cyborged bounty hunter died in the toxic waters. (MC16, MC27, MC29, SWMW)

She was one of the few who outright challenged Jabba's unspoken rulership of the spaceport town. She hired Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes to play at her wedding reception. She was twenty-four at the time, and was going to marry D'Wopp. However, the simple-minded Whiphid decided to take up Jabba's offer of a bounty on Han Solo's head instead. When he tried to leave the ceremony, Valarian became enraged and a fight broke out. Imperial troops tried to break it up, and shut down the illegal gambling at the Lucky Despot. Valarian had D'Wopp sent back to Toola...in a large number of boxes. She continued to try and thwart Jabba's powerplays, but the Hutt's influence extended too deeply into Mos Eisley's substance. So, Valarian backed off and simply tried to outmaneuver the Hutt. She planted a number of spies in Jabba's palace, and even had a number of plots to kill the Hutt started. She later employed her Whiphid lover, J'Quille, in an attempt to kill Jabba. However, before J'Quille could succeed, Jabba was killed at the Pit of Carkoon. Valarian slowly but surely began to usurp Jabba's old businesses. She chose to abandon Jabba's bullying tactics and tried to become a more benevolent employer to her new operations. This approach worked extremely well, and by the time the New Republic attempted to negotiate for governance of the planet, Valarian was the primary source of power, water, land, and shipping rights. She moved her base of operations to Mos Ethna, and was a driving force in the emergence of the city as one of Tatooine's best spaceports. (GG7, TME, TJP, SOT)

After the Another Chance was recovered by the Alliance, the Valiant continued its mission without guidance, hopping into and out of hyperspace around the remains of Alderaan. It suddenly reappeared during the Bacta War when Tycho Celchu's X-Wing started using the IFF transmissions of the Another Chance to mask its true identity. The Valiant jumped back to realspace just as the Corrupter and Aggregator tried to eliminate Rogue Squadron.

this valley, located on the planet Korriban, was the site of the tombs of the ancient Dark Lords of the Sith. The valley itself was located far from Dreshdae, and was continually covered by clouds. It was dominated by huge funereal temples and tombs, with an ornate altar at the far end. The Valley was more than 1,200 meters deep in some places, although it was little more than a slit in the ground, and much of the rock which made up its walls had been carved with magical Sith runes and glyphs to ward off unwanted spirits and intruders. In additon to these runes, a wide variety of sculptures and reliefs adorned the Valley walls, portraying the heroics of the Sith Lords buried there. It was believed that the structure and placement of the tombs was designed to concentrate and focus the power of the Dark Side of the Force, allowing the spirits of the ancient Sith Lords to remain closeby. During the years following the Mandalorian Wars, the Valley of the Dark Lords was looted by the locals and other treasure hunters, and many of the tombs were ransacked. (GAS, PH, JQ10, KOTOR2)
Valley of the Floating Trees  
this unusual valley was found on the Forest Moon of Endor. (ECAR)
Valley of the Giant Oysters  
located in the oceans of Calamari, this valley has been the home for Calamari's huge oysters for millions of years. Could this be the Calamarian Knowledge Banks? (GDV)
Valley of the Jedi  
located on the planet Ruusan, this valley was believed to have been an ancient, hidden, Jedi burial ground whose existence was considered a mere legend until Morgan Katarn discovered its exact location. In reality, the Valley was located near the site of the decisive struggle in the Battle of Ruusan, in which Lord Kaan and the Brotherhood and Darkness unleashed a thought bomb on Lord Hoth and the Army of Light. In the wake of the battle, Jedi Knight Johun Othone established a memorial to the fallen Jedi, naming it the Valley of the Jedi. Wondrous statues and a huge mausoleum were erected in the valley to honor the forces of Lord Hoth. The stone used to create these memorials came from hundreds of planets, symbolizing the diversity of Lord Hoth's forces. At one end of the Valley, Othone placed a huge Adegan crystal in a special chamber, as a place where Jedi Knights could meditate on their place in the galaxy. However, over the centuries, interest in the Battle of Ruusan faded, and the Jedi Council - which had prohibited the construction of the memorial in the first place - chose to forget about Ruusan entirely. Thus, the Valley of the Jedi disappeared from the public consciousness. The natives of Ruusan, an unusual race known only as the Bouncers, believed that the spirits trapped in the Valley would only be set free when a Knight arrived to upset the natural balance. The Jedi Knight Qu Rahn tried to keep the Valley's location a secret until he could secure it, but the Dark Jedi Jerec murdered Rahn and Morgan Katarn in order to discover its location and use it for himself. Kyle Katarn, Morgan's son, successfully defeated Jerec and his Dark Jedi in the Valley itself, preventing them from abusing the Valley's power. Kyle shared the secret of the Valley's location with only one other individual, Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, so that the site could be investigated by the Jedi and not misused by their enemies.

Valley of the Spirits  
this was one of the many Tusken Raider settlements found on the planet Tatooine. The clan which lived in this valley was responsible for the capture of Shmi Skywalker, some ten years after the Battle of Naboo. Unfortunately, the clan was slaughtered by Anakin Skywalker, when he returned to Tatooine and witnessed his mother's death. For decades afterward, the Sandpeople avoided the valley and the remains of the settlement, fearing that the avenging "ghost" of Anakin would slay them, too. Ritual sacrifices, often captured moisture farmers, were made to appease the "ghost", to ensure that it wouldn't return to terrorize other settlements. Shortly after the marriage of Han Solo and Leia Organa, they were forced to travel to Tatooine to recover the Killik Twilight moss-painting, and had to rescue Kitster Banai before he could be the latest sacrifice. (SWI62, TG)
Valley of the Wind  
this smooth-floored gulley is located near Jabba the Hutt's palace on Tatooine. It is also known as the Teeth of Tatooine, for Jabba used it as a torture and punishment. (TBH)
Valley of Umbra  
located on the planet Zelos II, this 500-meter deep valley is unusual in that its walls slope inward. This creates a valley which is wider at its base than at its top. The floor of the valley is always in the shadows, and thus it is feared by the native Zelosians. It is for this reason that the Empire built their base there, hidden from the eyes of the New Republic and the Zelosians. The garrison is maintained at half-strength since the Battle of Endor. (PG2)
Valleyport  
this small city is located on the planet Liinade III. During the New Republic's assault on the planet, Corran Horn was shot down over this city, and discovered a laboratory which was designing a new version of the Death Star. The lab had been set up by Ysanne Isard, in an effort to undermine the efforts of Prince-Admiral Krennel and Isard's clone. (IR)

Valorum Shipping and Transport  
based on the planet Eriadu, this interstellar shipping corporation was owned and operated by the family of Finis Valorum, during the last centuries of the Old Republic. About a year before the Battle of Naboo. Finis Valorum was accused of using inside information - the impending taxation of trade routes in the Mid and Outer Rim Territories - to bolster his holdings in Valorum Shipping in order to reap a substantial profit. Under the Amended Proprieties Bill, Valorum was legally bound to ignore such information, and Senator Bail Antilles was forced to expose the matter to the Judicial Department. For his own part, Finis Valorum was unaware of the investments that he was supposed to have made, mainly because the basis for these accusations was false. Nonetheless, the accusations forced many Senators to question Valorum's trustworthyness and capacity to rule the galaxy. It was later revealed that the transfer of funds initiated with a huge quantity of aurodium ingots, which were traced to the Trade Federation freighter Revenue. (COD)
Valorum Tower  
this Old Republic-style building was located in Coruscant's Imperial City. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, the building became a refuge for the many aliens who fled Yuuzhan Vong attacks. (JE)
Valorum, Finis  
this man served as the Chancellor of the Old Republic, having been elected shortly before the rise of Senator Palpatine and serving nearly two full, four-year terms in office. Finis was the latest member of a family whose political roots stretched back over a thousand years, and had inherited the Chancellorship from his father. Historians point to Valorum's ancestors, many decades before the Battle of Naboo, laying the groundwork for giving the Trade Federation free reign to do as it needed to make a profit. The Valorum family was known for its favoring of rules and procedures over taking direct action, and Finis himself was almost blind to the idea of taking the initiative in a given situation. When Palpatine was appointed the Senator of Naboo, Valorum had just started his second term, and sought out Palpatine as a potential ally. Note that Star Wars: Galactic Crisis! indicates that Valorum was also a native of the planet Naboo, just as Palpatine was. However, Valorum was no match for Palaptine's political maneuverings, and was in trouble from false accusations even before the Trade Federation blockaded the planet Naboo. When Queen Amidala appealed to the Galactic Senate for a lifting of the blockade, Valorum was unable to act without a considerable resistance from many factions within the Senate. The Senators from Malastare demanded a review of the situation, and Valorum was forced to agree. As Palpatine's plan unfolded, he urged Amidala to call for a vote of no-confidence in Valorum. Amidala had very little understanding of the Seante's workings, and went along with Palpatine's suggestion. Shortly thereafter, Valorum was voted out as Chancellor, to be replaced by Palpatine himself. Valorum remained in the background of the Old Republic's political environment for several years, writing his autobiography and working with the Refugee Relief Movement, until the onset of the Clone Wars brought war to the galaxy. He returned to Coruscant some sixteen months after the Battle of Geonosis to speak with Bail Organa about the growing power of Chancellor Palpatine, berating Organa and the Senate for granting Palpatine additional powers and chafing at their assumption that Palpatine actually believed them to be temporary. He also believed that a pirate attack on one of Organa's transport ships had been orchestrated by Palpatine, as a way to eliminate Organa and obtain approval for the Security and Enforcement Act. As he left Coruscant, Valorum boarded the Star of Iskin to return to his self-imposed isolation. Just after liftoff, however, the ship exploded, killing Valorum and all aboard. The Separatists ultimately were blamed for the attack. Despite his troubles with the Republic, Valorum's memory was honored with the creation of the Finis Valorum Memorial. Chancellor Valorum was portrayed by Terrence Stamp in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace. (SW1, IG1, COD, SWI73, RDE, GC)

Vandel  
this independent prospector and his partner, Helm, were the first beings to discover the planet Vandelhelm, which was eventually named in their honor. They were able to penetrate the vast cloud of asteroids that surrounded the planet some 3,000 years before the Galactic Civil War, and found that the planet was incredibly rich in metals and ores. They decided to make their claim with the Old Republic before relocating their families to the planet, where they served as the founding members of the Metalsmiths' Guild.

A world rich in minerals, it was best-known as the homeworld of the Metalsmiths' Guild. It was undiscovered by the Old Republic until about 3,000 years before the Clone Wars, when two independent prospectors - Vandel and Helm - first located it. The two settled on the planet with their families, and became the founders of the Metalsmiths' Guild. Following the Galactic Civil War, the Guilds threw their support to the New Republic, but the Guildmaster, Orrk, remained loyal to the Empire. He hid Commander Mordur in a converted drone barge among the asteroids, until the Imperials could regroup. The Imperials infiltrated the New Republic's supply depot on the planet, but were eventually defeated. The natives of Vandelhelm are generally superstitious, and have perfected their craft. Their metalsmithing secrets have been passed down from generation to generation. (VM, MC98, PH)

Along with Coruscant, it was one of only two planets in the entire system with terrestrial environments. During the height of the Clone Wars, Vandor-3 was one of many underpopuulated worlds that served as clone trooper training grounds for the Grand Army of the Republic. Many of those clone troopers who were trained oin Vandor-3 also regarded it as the harshest of all their training grounds. Any trooper who lacked a drop ribbon from the Vandor-3 training facility was regarded with something not unlike suspicion, although it was generally believed that this was simply a form of secrecy that ensured the Vandor-3 facility was new to each individual.

Excess water was expelled from filtering membranes at the posterior of the creature. The name "vangaak" came from the Yuuzhan Vong verb for "to submerge". The average vangaak measured thirty meters in length, and was formed from a yorik coral skeleton, onto which was grown a colony of kera-boa cells. The craft was then protected by the chitinous bodies of scutes from a dora-mu. (EVC, UF, NEGV)

Vanis, Tay  
a native of the planet Telfrey, this man was an Alliance special agent who went by the codename "Tiree". He managed to survive the Imperial destruction of his homeworld, but lost his entire family to the stormtroopers who swept through the towns and cities. Like many of Telfrey's survivors, Tay fled to Iskalon before joining the Alliance as soon as he could. There were rumors that it was Vanis who received the plans for the second Death Star from the Bothans, but he disappeared before relaying them to the Alliance's central command. Leia Organa and Luke Skywalker were dispatched to locate Vanis and recover the plans. He left a message behind in his downed X-Wing, somewhere on the planet Arcan IV, in order to help Alliance agents locate the stolen plans, which had been hidden in the memory banks of the administration droid LE914. Luke and Leia later found him, after Vanis had been tortured by Darth Vader himself, and his mindless body left behind to die. Vader kept information on Vanis a secret, hoping to lure Luke into a trap. (LTA6, MC74, MC80, GMR1)
Vanish 2 Sensor Mask  
developed and manufactured by Fabritech, this device combined electromagnetic and holographic transmissions to "hide" a starship from most sensors.

The Vanish 2 made a ship virtually disappear by sending back sensor data about the starfield around it. (PP)
Van-Ith  
this man was the ruler of the planet Vanqor during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. After years of Vanqor conquest throughout the Uziel System, Van-Ith was approached by Talus and Binalu of Typha-Dor, who came with the support of the Jedi Knights, to negotiate a cessation to their incursions. After much debate, Van-Ith eventually agreed to a ceasefire, and the leaders began working toward a mutual resolution to their hostilities. (JQ7)

this Imperial Moff was an aging old man who had dedicated his life to the military. He was once a personal friend of Emperor Palpatine. He was one of the two Moffs with territories bordering the Maelstrom. Along with his compatriot Torpin, Vanko submitted falsified budgets and financial reports to the Empire to try and hide the fact that he was losing a great deal of money to the Riders of the Maelstrom. The last reports Vanko sent wer covering up nearly 25% losses. He and Torpin met in secret on the planet Aris, then boarded the Kuari Princess to discuss what their next moves would be. Both believed that the pirate groups were woking in concert with the Alliance to plan a major offensive against their forces. Vanko and Torpin barely escaped from the Princess after it was hijacked by the Riders and rescued by Alliance agents. (RM)

Vannix  
this temperate world, the first planet in the Vankalay System, was similar in many respects to Alderaan. Located near Kuat, Vannix was a blue-green marble mottled with white clouds. The humans who were native to the planet were ostentatious in their manner of dress and decoration, preferring posh accommodations and lavish dιcor. Their lifestyles were shaken, just after the Battle of Coruscant, when Presider Sakins looted the planetary treasury and fled Vannix, leaving the planet bankrupt and leaderless. (EL2)
Vanqor  
this was the name used to describe the human population of the planet Vanqor. (JQ7)
Vanqor  
this planet was the largest of the worlds in the Uziel System. Much of the planet was covered by deserts and high, rocky plateaus. During the last decades of the Old Republic, Vanqor's human population began to assert control over the rest of the inhabited worlds in the system. The Vanqors subjugated all worlds but Typha-Dor before the Jedi Knights were asked to intervene. The planet was known for its native population of gundarks, which were a bit more menacing than the standard gundark found throughout the galaxy. Obi-Wan Kenobi stumbled into a nest of these gundarks during his mission to mediate a cessation to the Vanqors' invasions, and had to be rescued by his apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, several years prior to the Battle of Geonosis. Vanqor was orbited by a pair of reddish moons, which orbited the planet in tandem. (JQ7)

Vanya-class Courier ship  
these craft were developed for use by the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic, during the years following the Great Sith War. The Vanya-class ship had more cargo space than the Delaya-class ship, which allowed Jedi Masters to transport and train a larger number of students. Measuring seventy meters in length and carrying up to eight beings and ten metric tons of cargo, the Vanya-class courier was armed with a pair of laser cannons and a proton torpedo launcher. After the Battle fo Ruusan, when the Jedi Council declared that a Master could train no more than a single apprentice, ships such as the Vanya-class were no longer needed. (PJSB)

Vapps, Grubber  
this man served as Second-in-Command to Mix Liddell, during the Mon Calamarian's tenure as Chief of Security for the Outer Rim Oreworks facility on Lamaredd, during the years surrounding the Battle of Naboo. Vapps, like Liddell, was a former fisherman, and was dragged off his vessel when Liddell asked him to assist in the hunt for Byrch Dyshkava. Vapps resigned his membership in the Sailors' Union to join Liddell, and quickly became one of Liddell's most trusted lieutenants. Many beings in Bartyn's Landing regarded Vapps as the consummate frontier lawman: the wily, grizzled old veteran who spent as much of his free time working on his swoop as he spent in Miss Mylla's Saloon. In fact, Vapps was well-known around the Cargo Track as an excellent swoop racer, despite the fact that racing put him in a dangerous position. (GMR7)
Varactyl  
this species of four-legged, herbivorous reptiles was native to the planet Utapau. Distinguished by its low body and heavily-clawed feet, the cold-blooded varactyl could climb the sheer walls of the sinkholes that dominated the surface of Utapau, but only after sunning itself to sufficiently warm up its body temperature. On open ground, a varactyl was a fast-moving creature, which made them an excellent choice as mounts for the Utapaun military. Xenoarchaeologists believed that varactyls were first tamed by the Utai, which managed to capture them at night when they were sluggish. A crest of feather-like plates ran down the skull of both male and female varactyls, extending the length of the body along the spine and covering the dorsal and ventral sides of the tail. Although both sexes exhibit an array of colors among these feathers, the female usually had the brighter colors. Mixed into the plates along the tail were sharp spines that could be used for defense against other predators, and a bony mace that could be used as a weapon capped the tail. A mid-body ridge of spines was connected with skin to form a kind of fin, which was used during mating displays. The scaly skin of the varactyl was waterproof, allowing the varactyl to swim whenever necessary. The wide, splayed feet of a varactyl were studded with five clawed toes, giving the varactyl excellent stability and traction. The average varactyl measured four meters tall at the shoulder and more than fifteen meters in length, with the tail accounting for up to two-thirds of the overall length. Despite their size, varactyls were common prey for the avian dactillions, which raided varactyl nests and consumed varactyl eggs and hatchlings. (SWGAL, VD3, E3N, SWDB)

Varat'k  
this Gree master is credited with the creation of the Varat'k Snarap device. (SWJ8)
Varat'k Snarap  
this weapon, created by the Gree Varat'k, is used to protect the vast starship known as the Rokak'k Baran. It is not a blaster-type weapon, but instead manipulated a generated forcefield into wind-like energy bolts. When rakes across the surface of an enemy ship, it can effectively vaoprize the enemy with blasts of energy. (SWJ8)
Varda-class Starship

Variable Geometry Self-Propelled Battle Droid  
this was the name of the droid starfighters used by the Trade Federation during the last years of the Old Republic. These craft were also known as Vulture Droids, and were sometimes denoted as "Mark 1" droids. The Trade Federation never wished to risk any of its living members, so droids permeated its armed forces in every aspect. The droid starfighter was designed by the Xi Char order, and was a small starfighter with a pair of wings mounted to a wing-like fuselage. Lozenge-shaped weapons emplacements were mounted on the tips of the wings, and could split open in combat to reveal additional weapons systems. A small knob in the center of the fuselage held the droid brain that acted as the ship's pilot. When not in flight - either during storage aboard a Federation battle ship or after landing - the ship's systems transform the fighter into a walking weapons platform. This marvel of droid technology could only have been manufactured by the highly-precise Xi Charrians. The starfighter measured 3.5 meters in length when in flight mode, and was armed with four blaster cannons and two torpedo launcher. The only drawback to this droid starfighter was that it could only remain active for 35 minutes before it required refueling, and would go into standby if it lost contact with the control ship for more than twelve seconds. If it was out of contact for more than six minutes, the ship would self-destruct. Any potential problems were overcome by sheer numbers, as there were 1,500 Vultures aboard every Federation battle ship. These craft were designed for both spaceflight and atmospheric flight, and could attain speeds near 1,200 kilometers per hour in atmosphere. These fighters were used throughout the Clone Wars, primarily because they were cheap to mass-produce. Production of the Vulture Droid was later turned over to the Baktoid Armor Workshop. These craft often augmented the squadrons of Tri-Fighters and HMP Droid Gunships in battle. (SW1, X1, IG1, SWRPG, SON, NEGV, VD3)
Variant Alpha  
Doctor Vin Emil developed this strain of bacteria from the Rift Mutation, creating a dominant trait which would allow the bacteria to live longer if it didn't eat so much. It was released within the facility, where it bred with the natural form of the bacteria and bred the desire to continually eat out of their genetic makeup. He allowed the crew of the FarStar to obtain a sample of the Variant Alpha bacteria, in order for them to bring it back to the New Republic and use it to assist in colonizing and traveling through the Kathol Rift. (KR)
Variant Atmosphere Battle Simulator  
this was a technology developed for military training, during the last decades of the Old Republic. The VABS, as it was often referred to, was contained in a kilometers-wide structure that allowed for the artificial simulation of various planetary environments and battlefield conditions. The structure of the facility that housed the VABS contained various repulsorlift-equipped floor and wall panels that allowed for simulation of different gravitational environments. (GORW)

A stunningly beautiful woman with red hair, sharp crimson fingernails, and an athletic build, Variise was also cold, calculating, and exceptionally cruel. She acknowledged her membership in the Mistryl Shadow Guards, but never revealed any additional information. How she came to work for Caerbellak was also a mystery, although it wa rumored that Caerbellak once saved her life from a band of pirates. Variise was an enigma, having seemingly gone against her sisterhood in serving an Imperial Moff. (SWJ9)
Varium  
this ore was used in the production of droid shells. (CSWDW)
Vark Street  
this avenue was the location of The Strip, in the city of Takari on Iyuta. (SWCP)
Varl  
the original homeworld of the Hutt race, Varl was the only planet in the Ardos system. Once a lush, forested paradise, Varl was later rendered a cratered wasteland which no longer had the necessary resources to maintain itself. Hutt legend said the planet was destroyed when Ardos' twin star, Evona, was sucked into a black hole. Hutt legends maintained that Ardos and Evona were lovers, and that the many planets in the system were their children. When the black hole consumed Evona and many of the system's planets, legend held that Ardos became enraged and began to self-destruct. This led to Ardos' shedding of incredible amounts of radioactive material and shrinking to become a white dwarf. At this point, the Hutts no longer felt Ardos a worthy god, and abandoned Varl and the Ardos System. The fact that Ardos and Varl actually existed was an astrophysical impossibility. Some scientists theorized that the Hutts devastated the planet in a civil war. The Hutts left the dying planet and established colony worlds elsewhere, including Nal Hutta. From space, Varl was a brown ball of rock and dust, with large portions of the planet visibly glowing from radiation. Much of the precipitation that fell wsa in the form of acid rain, and all of the planet's surface water was contaminated or toxic. The major cities were allowed to crumble and fall, cluttering the landscape with twisted wreckage. The only inhabitants were the slaves left behind by the Hutts, and a few beings who worked in the squallid manufacturing facilities that still operated on the planet. (COTF, DE1, GG4, TF)

Varn, World of Water  
this travelogue was shown by Han Solo to the Kamarian Badlanders during the early years of the New Order, while he was trying to earn some extra money after surviving the assault on the Stars' End facility. The Badlanders had developed an almost religious devotion to the holofeature, having never seen a planet so covered with standing water. When Han stopped showing the holofeature and showed Love Is Waiting instead, the Badlanders revolted and tore down Han's holoprojector in their anger. (HSR)
Varna Biqua  
this was one of the five major cities which were situated in the atmosphere of the planet Genarius. It was located in a dense cloudbank which never seemed to dissipate, and was built as a sister-city to Tolea Biqua. The motto of the inhabitants of Varna Biqua was "Live and let live  unless they get in your way. Then kill them." The city was populated by a variety of pirates and other criminals, who spent much of their time looking out for themselves. Many beings speculated that the unusual cloudbank in which the city was located was artificially formed by Riboga the Hutt, in an effort to hide the city and a rumored secret cache. (LFC)
Varnay  
this Ithorian Shepherd-class shuttle was commanded by Iych-thae. (OE)
Varnier  
this ineffectual and vengeful Imperial Moff controlled Wyloff Sector during the period following the Battle of Yavin. He was less concerned about government than recreation, and spent much of his time away from the actual leadership of the sector. When his lack of government was revealed by the father of Ilo Jev, Varnier had the broadcaster executed. Varnier had been assassinating any individual who opposed or questioned his rule,and the elder Jev was just another member of the opposition. His operation was eventually broken by the efforts of Major Kerri Lessev, who was working more for the Alliance than the Empire's Destabilization branch. Varnier's entire entire operation was laid bare, and many Imperial agents were reassigned or executed for their parts in Varnier's government. (CRO)
Varnillian, Niclara  
this woman was the youngest daughter of a prosperous Alderaanian family that ran a t'iil harvesting operation. As the favorite child a single father, she enjoyed many privileges as long as her older brothers were off at school. Niclara decided, much against her father's wishes, to join the Imperial Academy, and graduated with honors. She was assigned to the first Death Star as an operations crewer, and was part of the team which fired the station's first blast - at Alderaan. Shortly afterward, she was transferred to the Star Destroyer Pulsar and assigned the rank of gunnery officer. When she failed to capture Alton Lochner and Anson Blazer on Ord Mantell, she was demoted. A year later, when the Pulsar surrended to Alliance forces after the Battle of Endor, she and a group of troops fled on a transport ship and escaped. She continued to strike at New Republic forces in the Outer Rim Territories, and managed to elude capture each time. (SWJ8)
Varn-Kezzler, Horatio  
this man was a news reporter who was sent to Zirtran's Anchor to "expose the truth" about the station, during the height of the New Order. He interviewed a man who claimed to have intimate knowledge of the station's inner workings, and unknowingly came away with only enough information to make Zirtran's Anchor more mysterious. It was later revealed that the Kalai had hoped to bring Horatio into their fold, to serve as a kind of liaison to the other races living aboard the station. (SWJ5)

Varonat  
this planet, located along the Ison Corridor in the Anoat Sector, was the homeworld of the Morodin race. Varonat was a jungle world that was colonized by a group from the planet Salliche about 250 years before the Galactic Civil War. They established a farming economy, which proved to be profitable. However, the Morodin proved to be a menace to the community's farms because of their size and the slime they left behind, which caused the soil to become infertile. Many of the farming industry's profits went into security measures. Gamgalon later set up a hunting industry on Varonat, as a cover for his aleudrupe berry farms. Both businesses were eventually shut down, after it was discovered that he was actually hunting the Morodin. The average day on Varonat lasted 27 standard hours, and its year encompassed 325 local days. Note that the Galactic Gazetteer: Hoth and the Greater Javin indicates Varonat's day lasted 24 hours, and its year lasted 400 local days. (SWJ1, TFE, WOA33)

Var'Rotha Fin'Rotha  
this particularly nasty bounty hunter was a member of the Tolanese people, and traveled the galaxy in a ship he called the Tolan's Tusk. During the height of the New Order, he maintained two Gamorrean slaves, brothers known as Gorge and Greel. After delivering a bounty to Coruscant, Fin'Rotha let his guard down while taking a break, and let Greel out of his cage to clean the ship. Greel let his brother loose, and the pair overpowered Fin'Rotha. They forced him into an escape pod and jettisoned him, and the brothers took off in the Tolan's Tusk. Fin'Rotha's escape pod eventually crashed, an the Tolanese barely escaped. He was hideously disfigured by burns when the ablative shields on the escape pod failed, and it took him many years to recover. He vowed to exact revenge on the two Gamorreans should he ever relocate them. (WSV)
Varrscha, Lakwii  
this woman was one of the many promoted to officer status in the Imperial Navy, in the wake of the destruction at the Battle of Endor. She served as the Executive Office under Joak Drysso aboard the Virulence, and was in line to take his position when Drysso was promoted. She was known to be a no-nonsense, by-the-book commander from her days at the helm of a customs Corvette. After Drysso's promotion, Varrscha proved herself to be an average Captain, with unimpressive results in battles against Rogue Squadron. Taller and more muscular than Ysanne Isard, Lakwii lacked Isard's commanding presence. When Isard discovered that the Rogues were based off the space station in the Yag'Dhul system, she ordered Varrscha and the Virulence to accompany the Lusankya and destroy it. When Booster Terrik managed to catch the Super-class Star Destroyer in a trap, the Virulence moved between the station and the Lusankya, allowing the larger ship to leave. Captain Drysso believed Varrscha and her crew were killed by Terrik's attack. In fact, the Virulence and her crew were captured by Terrik. (BW)
Var'sairk  
this was the term used by the Coynites to describe the birth group of an individual. The average var'sairk consisted of two to six children.

Varth  
Varth was the bitter, taciturn Wing Commander who was in charge of the Atrivis Resistance Group's Generis base starfighters during the height of the New Order. He was hated by all his pilots, who served because they recognized his flawless tactics and military brilliance. He was under the control of Travia Chan, but was also directly answerable to the Alliance Sector command and Starfighter command. Years later, as a New Republic Wing Commander on Generis, he was known as a man who would send his starfighters out against impossible odds without a second thought. It was unknown if he survived the Imperial attack there, just prior to the Battle of Bilbringi. (RASB, TLC)
Varth, Alinn  
this young woman was a member of Rogue Squadron, during the second decade of the New Republic. She held the rank of Major, and was also Gavin Darklighter's third-in-command behind Inyri Forge, flying as Rogue Nine during the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. (DTO)
Vartlett  
this creature was known as a loyal pet which could be trained to be extremely obedient. (SWJ6)
Vartos, Cobb  
a Major with the New Republic Intelligence Agency, Vartos was one of the best instructors in the military. He wasn't a loud, screaming drill sergeant, but instead a persistent teacher who maintained a high level of pressure his students in subtle ways to earn their buy-in to the training. He was in command of the team dispatched to Verkuyl to assist in ousting the Imperial presence there, shortly after the Battle of Endor. He and Selby Jarrad posed as corporate spokesbeings from GalFactorial, who came to Verkuyl to negotiate a deal with Governor Parco Ein. After the capture of Claris' infiltration team, Vartos himself was caught by Governor Ein's stormtroopers. Sebly tried to break away from the troopers and complete the mission, and opened fire on those holding Vartos. Unfortunately for Vartos, the first thing the remaining troops did was shoot him before they fired on Selby. Luckily, though, he survived long enough to be rescued by members of the Republic's second wave. (TFNR, SWJ13)

this was a hulking, alien race which was distinguished by their retractable eyeballs which were constantly bathed in fluids. (APS)
Varykino  
this was the name of the Lake Country retreat to which Padme' Amidala and Anakin Skywalker traveled, when they arrived on Naboo after a second attempt was made to assassinate Senator Amidala. It was considered remote enough to allow the Senator a chance to recover her strength, since no assassin could locate her there. Varykino was owned by the Naberrie family, and was maintained by a staff of loyal servants. (VD2, SWDB)

this woman was one of the five Jedi Masters who survived the Jedi Civil War, several millennia before the Clone Wars. Unfortunately, she was captured and brought to Korriban by the followers of Darth Sion, who tortured her and finally sacrificed her to augment their growing powers. (KOTOR2)
Vasha  
this planet, the homeworld of the Vashan race, was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy, on the border between the Inner Zuma and Wild Space. During the Imperial occupation of the Moddell Sector, Vasha was one source of ores and metals that were mined to support the construction of the second Death Star. It was during this time that the Ayrou assumed control of the planet from the Vashans, virtually enslaving the Vashans in an effort to mine more ore and appease the Empire. During the early years of the New Republic, it was believed that the Ayrou Tessent was being hidden on Vasha by a group of Vashan rebels. (GMR9)
Vashan  
this was the native language of the Vashan race. (GMR9)
Vashan  
this insectile race was native to the planet Vasha, in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. Each Vashan individual was covered with a chitinous shell, and they were known for their strength and stamina. The internal organs of a Vashan were unusual, especially the stomach. The true stomach was lined with muscle, which the Vashans used to crush their food to begin the digestive process. Six antestomachs preceeded the true stomach, and each was filled with small stones to help break down food as it passed through. When coughed up by the bodhis of the Vashan people, these polished stones were called sin-bullets, and held a special place in the Vashan religion. Vashans were known to ignore food until their bodies were at the brink of collapse, at which point they gorged themselves to the point of satiation. Because of this, most restaurants refused to serve Vashan patrons, for fear of the mess they created. As a people, Vashans were timid and seemingly incapable of independent action, traits which were exploited when the Ayrou assumed control of Vasha during the Imperial occupation of Moddell Sector. The Vashans were quickly subjugated and forced to work as slaves in the mines, digging for metals and ores to support the construction of the second Death Star. The vast majority of Vashans simply accepted their fate, bowing to the demands of their leaders. (GMR9)
Vashan Liberation Force

Vasi was known as a demented individual, who would torment a Shamed One by forcing them to do cruel and unusual things. (EVC)
Vaskau Farg  
this Gand Findsman traveled to Arkania to track down a Sakiyan witch, during the last decades of the Old Republic. His contact on the planet, Hyrim Focela, provided only the basic information to Farg, much to his dismay. (PH)
Vasnish Kay  
this Bimm spent little time on her homeworld of Bimisaari, instead traveling across the galaxy with her merchant parents. She learned a great deal about the Jedi Knights during these travels, and when her parents were killed in an accident, Vasnish just kept on traveling, looking for more information on the Jedi. She eventually became something of a bard, collecting and retelling stories of the Jedi despite Imperial prohibitions against it. (HR)
Vasp  
this petty thief preyed on unwitting passengers of the Kuari Princess. (RM)
Vassk  
this sinister-looking Twi'lek was the smuggling partner of Tal Pak, until he sold out to the Empire. Vassk knew that Tal Pak held sympathies for the Alliance, and used his position to earn favor with the Imperials. However, when Vassk tried to turn in Tal Pak and a team of Alliance agents at the Red Moon Saloon on Tatooine, shortly after the Battle of Yavin, Tal Pak and the agents managed to escape. (SWJ2)

Vastor, Kar  
this Korunnai man was a noted leader among the Upland Liberation Front during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. As a child, he was unremarkable until a group of Balawai prospectors murdered his entire family before his eyes. This senseless killing hardened Vastor, but was nothing to the year he spent surviving in the jungles on his own. This tan pel'trokal brought Vastor into a deep harmony with the jungle and with the pelekotan power of Haruun Kal. During this time, Vastor seemed to lose the ability to speak with his mouth, trading his humanity to pelekotan in return for his survival. To many members of the group, Vastor was a lor pelek of vicious or even dangerous proportions. He was known for his tendency toward wanton violence, and many ritual killings and torturings of Balawai militia bore his own distinctive signature. Vastor himself was a massive man, heavily muscled and radiating his own dark hatred of the Balawai. He had filed his teeth into sharp points, further emphasizing his predatory nature. In battle, Vastor wore specially-made vibroshields on his arms, with points at the elbows to drive into his enemies. The edges of these shields were razor-sharp, and the alloys used to create the shields could cut through a blaster's barrel. He controlled a pack of twelve akk dogs and their Force-bonded riders, known as the Akk Guards, which he used to round up his victims and keep them pinned down while he decided how to torture them. He also communicated in via a limited form of telepathy, projecting his words into the mind of the being he was looking at. Shortly after the Battle of Geonosis, Vastor and his warriors came upon the bunker in which Mace Windu - on Haruun Kal to locate Depa Billaba - had tried to protect five Balawai children and their parents. Vastor ordered his warriors to brutally kill them all, and Master Windu was forced to intervene. He was too late to save Terrel Nakay, but confronted Vastor with a blur of lightsabers against the vibroshields. Neither combatant could gain an advantage, and Master Windu was forced to see the civil war on Haruun Kal through Vastor's eyes. They agreed to a truce, since Vastor was simply trying to bring him to Depa. In the coming days, Vastor and Mace engaged in another titanic duel, and this time Mace was forced to surrender in order to survive. Vastor accepted his surrender, unaware that Mace had used his surrender to break Vastor's control of him. Depa Billaba and Vastor himself later revealed that he and Mace were, in fact, the last surviving members of the Windu ghosh. Vastor used his considerable control of the Force to draw out the fever wasps which had infected Besh and Chalk, then healed their injuries. Later, during Master Windu's attempt to take control of Pelek Baw and the droid control system hidden beneath the city's surface, Vastor and his Akk Guards tried to prevent any success from falling into the Jedi's lap. His Akk Guards fought bravely against the clone troopers of the Army of the Republic, and Vastor himself launched into another assault on Windu. In this battle, however, Master Windu managed to grab hold of a vibroshield and flung it at Vastor. The vibroshield cut through Vastor's own shields, slicing through his arms and burying itself deep in his chest. Before he could object, Vastor heard Windu place him under arrest for obstructing the work of the Old Republic. He was brought to Coruscant for medical treatment, and charged with crimes against civilization, a category which had been not been invoked since the Great Sith War. (SHPT)
Vastrip IV  
a planet. (WBC)
Vasudra  
this Xiytiar-class transport was carrying bacta to a hospital space station which was sympathetic to the Alliance, when it was destroyed after being ambushed. Galin and Tomaas Azzameen were piloting the ship at the time, and perished in the explosion. (XWA)
Vasuuli  
this planet was the site of an Alliance communications relay base, during the early stages of the Galactic Civil War. A strike team from Vasuuli was dispatched to AX-456, but only managed to rescued a handful of technicians in the wake of the Imperial attack on the asteroid. (WOTC)
Vatleria  
this fog-shrouded planet was forsaken during the last decades of the Old Republic, and all settlements were abandoned in favor of more hospitable worlds closer to the Core. Because of this, the Empire chose to establish a base of operations on Vatleria. (T9)
Vatoki  
this retired Imperial Army officer was highly distressed by the victories the Alliance was able to claim over the Empire, including the Battle of Yavin. He was fairly vocal about the Empire's lack of success in eradicating the Alliance. Vatoki was a passenger on the Kuari Princess when it was attacked by the Riders of the Maelstrom. (RM)
Vatta Four  
Airen Cracken was able to fight off Imperial forces on this planet by using a Baed Sharpshooter and some modified explosive slugs. (CFG)
Vau, Walon  
this man was one of the many military instructors dispatched to Kamino to train the clone commandos that were created by the Kaminoans, during the build-up to the Clone Wars. Like his peers, Vau was a Mandalorian mercenary who was chosen for the heritage he shared with Jango Fett. Sergeant Vau was known for his pessimistic demeanor, and his training was noted for its focus on planning for the worst-case scenarios. He also stressed the need for superior technology and firepower, which added to one's chances to survive an encounter. Many of his graduates considered Vau to be a borderline sociopath, especially given the way he planned missions (RCHC, LAWS, SWI84)
Vaufthau Processing Industries  
this manufacturing and urban construction combine was one of the original non-voting contributing sponsors of the Corporate Sector Authority. (CSA)
Vaults of Narner  
a famous group of burial grounds located on the planet Salliche, they were looted over the years until the Jedi Knight Soonis put a stop to it. (SWJ3)
Vault-spire  
this was the Basic translation of the Muun term that described the cities that formed around the cones of active smoker volcanoes on the planet Muunilinst. Despite their name, these cities were primarly equipped to mine and process the valuable ores and minerals that were spewed out by the smokers. The actual vault was the smoker itself, a cone composed of gold, silver, platinum and other metals that was covered with all manner of aquatic life. (GORW)
Vaxx, Norrin  
a native of Coruscant, Vaxx discovered he was sensitive to The Force at an early age. However, his sensitivity was quite low, a fact which allowed him to escape the notice of Emperor Palpatine. Instead of pursuing the Jedi arts, Vaxx turned to gambling and fighting as a means to make ends meet. This lifestyle began to turn him toward the Dark Side of the Force, a path which drew him in deeper after he constructed his own lightsaber and began to use it in combat. He was a regular combatant at the Dool Arena on Reuss VIII during the Galactic Civil War. (WSV)
Vaya Bar'jaraka  
this was a noted figure in Balosar history. (UANT)
Vaya-class Scout Ship  
this ancient starship was designed and manufactured by Hoersch-Kessel Drive, Incorporated, and was developed for use as an exploration vessel. The Vaya-class was not a combat ship, and suffered from ion engine malfunction if pushed too hard. The Vaya-class measured 30 meters in length, and required a pilot and two gunners. It could transport up to 4 passengers and 60 metric tons of cargo. These ships were often armed with a front-mounted laser cannon and projectile launcher. They were equipped with a hyperdrive, and was considered fast by ancient standards. (TOJC)
Vayerbok  
this drink was served warm. (TNR)
Vaykaaris Uprising  
this struggle took place some forty-five yearas before the Battle of Endor, when a terrorist group threatened more than a hundred worlds in the Colonies region. The Chandrilan corvette Freedom's Messenger was dispatched, with a dozen Jedi Knights onboard, to resolve the dispute. (DARK)
Vaynai  
this planet, located near the end of the Perlemian Trade Route between the Corporate Sector and the Tion Cluster, was known for its diverse aquaculture. Its exotic islands formed the basis of a thriving tourism industry that catered to the rich and famous during the height of the New Order, while its remote location and the isolation of its landmasses made it a haver for smugglers and criminals. The first settlers on the planet made their homes on the Vaynai Archipelago, establishing aquaculture as a way to survive. As the settlers prospered, the leaders became wealthier because of the labor of the masses. Rather than have their paradise diminished by this "rabble", the leaders banished the workers to the caves near the shore, keeping the lush highlands for themselves. Because ground space was at a premium on the planet, the leaders chose to enforce their airspace first, and were known to shoot first and aask questions later of any starship captain who didn't follow the rules. (GMR8)
Vaynai Archipelago  
this chain of islands was located on the planet Vaynai. It was the Archipelago that attracted rich and famous tourists to the planet during the height of the New Order. (GMR8)
Vaynai Island  
this was the largest of the islands contained in the Vaynai Archipelago, located on the planet Vaynai. (GMR8)
V'Bren Goh  
this small lake was located near the city of Graith, on the planet Goroth Prime. Its name literally meant "Bitter Tarn" in the Basic language. Water from the V'Bren Goh was used in Graith, but only after filtering and purifying. However, the water from V'Bren Goh was relatively clean, given the environmental damage the planet had suffered. (GSE)
V-Brose  
this Keganite Truant Guide was V-Tarz's partner. (FFT)
V'buk  
this archaci name was common among Sullustan males, and literally translated into Basic as "hard to break", referring to a sturdy metal mined on Sullust. (GCG)
V'buk  
this exceptionally sturdy metal was mined on the planet Sullust. (GCG)
VCA Line Caster  
manufactured by Jabriel, this device was used on a droid to fire a length of syntherope at a specific target. The VCA was designed to be used in conjunction with a winch, allowing a droid to extricate itself from a precarious position. (FTD)
VCD987  
this Acclamator-class troopship was part of the massive fleet assembled during the Clone Wars by the Old Republic. It was ambushed by Separatist forces during a troop transfer to Drongar. (J4)
Vcikas  
this Mon Calamari once claimed to have seen a Tessent on the planet Thonner, after escaping from an Ayrou prison facility and nearly being killed by a zoun mauler. He returned to his home only briefly before disappearing. Rumors and stories told that he was hiding from his Ayrou jailers, and whenever fishnets were found cut or raided, the loss was attributed to Vcikas. (GMR9)
VCX-350  
the VCX-series of transports was developed by the Corellian Engineering Corporation in the wake of the Battle of Endor. The VCX-350, like other ships in the VCX line, were designed with enhanced shields, engines, and weapons that were almost military-grade. At 31 meters in length, the VCX-350 was created to be the workhorse of CEC's new line of transports, but it's steep pricetag kept it out of reach of most independent spacers. Because of its high-profile clientele, CEC designed the VCX-350 with luxurious appointments for its crew of two plus a gunner, as well as up to eight passengers. It was armed with a pair of laser cannons to keep pirates at bay, and could carry up to 250 metric tons of cargo. The main section of the ship was wide and flat, with a rounded cockpit mounted along the center spine. The engine section was reminiscent of the YG-5000, with three large sublight engines mounted just aft of the main section. (GMR2)
VCX-700  
designed by the Corellian Engineering Corporation as a heavy courier, the VCX-700 continued the VCX series' paramilitary design standard. At 26 meters in length, the VCX-700 was armed with four light ion cannons, two heavy laser cannons, four concussion missile launchers, and a front-mounted autoblaster. It required a pilot to operate as well as four gunners, and could carry up to six passengers and five metric tons of cargo. The VCX-700's heavy armor plating gave it substantial protection against pirates, but it sacrificed cargo space to allow for the increased protection. The hull configuration of the VCX-700 was similar to the Trade Federation's AAT battle tank, with a hemispherical main section situated below and in front of the secondary drive section. The two main drives were located at the rear of the main hull. The cockpit was mounted atop the main hull, allowing continuous access to the drives. (GMR2)
VCX-820  
designed by the Corellian Engineering Corporation as an escort freighter, the VCX-820 was named to admit that it was built to military specifications without directly labelling it as a warship. It was first produced shortly before the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, and found instant popularity in the Mid and Outer Rim Territories as a true escort. At 20.2 meters in length, the VCX-820 was a small ship, but its heavy weaponry and enhanced shielding gave it more than enough advantage in a firefight. Originally developed to patrol the border with the Imperial Remnant, the VCX-820 was armed with a pair of twin heavy laser cannons, eight autoblasters, and a proton torpedo launcher. It required a pilot and co-pilot to operate, as well as six gunners to handle the weapons. Because of the ship's small size, no passenger space was found aboard the VCX-820, and a minimal one-metric-ton of cargo space was provided, thereby giving it freighter status. Visually, the VCX-820 took many cues from the old YT-1300, with two forward-facing mandibles jutting at the front. These mandibles connected to the thin center section, with the cockpit mounted between the mandibles and the engine section along the rear. (GMR2)
V-Davi  
this Keganite boy was a student at the time Obi-Wan Kenobi and Siri were held on Kegan. His parents died of the Toli-X virus, mainly because Kegan was isolated from the galaxy and never learned of the vaccine which counteracted it. He later befriended Obi-Wan and Siri, realizing that their continued opposition to O-Bin came from a greater knowledge of the galaxy. V-Davi helped them escape the Learning Circle, but was later sent to the Relearning Circle for his part in their escape. After the Jedi revealed the sham perpetuated by V-Tan and O-Vieve, V-Davi was released from the Relearning Circle. He decided to live with V-Nen and O-Melie, after their daughter O-Lana traveled to Coruscant to begin training as a Jedi Knight. (FFT)
V'Droz, Garrbo  
this man was considered one of the best architects of his time, during the early years of the New Order. Garrbo and his brother were hired by Emperor Palpatine to design the Mount Tantiss facility. Both brothers were easily distinguished by their emerald-colored hair. Despite the successful completion of the project, but Garrbo and his brother were executed by the Emperor in order to maintain the secrecy of the facility. (TTSB)
VDV-100  
this holograph-enabled comlink unit was produced by Tramora Interstellar Communications during the height of the New Order. It allowed a user to send and receive face-to-face communications, and even provided the capability to receive HoloNet transmissions. One of the primary features of the VDV-100 was that a user could program in a recorded holographic image of themselves, which would be animated to appear as if the user was talking. This was primarily marketed as a way to answer the comlink early in the morning, allowing the user to remain in bed but appear on the other comlink as if up and moving. This feature was later used to criminals to mask their true identity. (GFT, AEG)
Veb, Bedran  
this man was a grandfather, and he was considered one of the best storytellers of his generation, at least by his grandchildren. (TOJC)

VecTech  
see Vector Technologies (WSV)
Vector  
this game of chance and skill was often found in casinos, during the early years of the New Order. (HSR)
Vector Prime  
this was the codename used by the Yuuzhan Vong to describe their path of galactic invasion. Starting from a point in the Yuuzhan Vong's own galaxy, the Praetorite Vong traveled along Vector Prime and made first contact with the known galaxy at Helska, where their first ship established a base of operation. Through the efforts of Yomin Carr, they destroyed the planet Belkadan and planned to use it as a breeding ground for yorik coral. Next, Vector Prime continued on to Sernpidal, which was destroyed when a dovin basal drew the moon Dobido into a collision with the planet. Next on the vector were Destrillion and Dubrillion, but it was here that the first wave of the invasion force encountered stiff resistance. The New Republic was alerted to the presence of the alien invaders, and the base on Helska was destroyed. However, the Republic's leadership turned a blind eye to the scope of the Yuuzhan Vong threat, believing that Leia Organa Solo magnified its impact in order to regain political power. When Vector Prime consumed the worlds of Bimmiel, Dantooine, and Garqi, Chief of State Borsk Fey'lya was forced to concede his mistake and yield more power to the military in order to counteract the Yuuzhan Vong forces. With the destruction of the planet Obroa-skai, Vector Prime had captured or destroyed thirty planetary systems. After taking Bimmisaari and Nal Hutta, the Yuuzhan Vong made a series of strikes toward the Core. The fleet was split to attack the worlds of Tynna, Duro, and Ord Mantell. These victories gave the Yuuzhan Vong staging areas from which to attack the shipyards at Bilbringi and Fondor, as well as a direct path into the Core Worlds. (VP, DTO, HT, EVR)
Vector Technologies  
this small corporation was owned and operated by Yin Vocta. Known as VecTech to most businessbeings, it owned a number of subsidiary and ancillary businesses, including Bantha Traxx on Lianna. (WSV)
Vector-class Spaceskimmer  
this small starship was a Sullustan design. (ROM)
Veda  
this woman was the Queen of the planet Gala, some twelve years before the Battle of Naboo. Veda became the ruler of the planet after her husband, Cana, passed away. As her own life came to an end, she began putting in place the mechanisms to have her successor chosen by democratic vote. This angered her son, Beju, who believed he should be the rightful ruler after her death. Veda knew that Beju might not be the true heir, knowing that Cana once married a woman of the hill clans, and fathered a daughter named Elan. She loaned Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi a starfighter when they were dispatched to the planet Melida/Daan to rescue Tahl, then requested their assistance in ensuring a democratic vote for her successor. Veda had planned to abdicate the throne, knowing that she was about to die. (DOD, MOC)
Veda  
this young girl was one of the many children studying at the Jedi Temple, on the planet Coruscant, during the height of the Clone Wars. Veda was known for her impulsive nature, which often manifested itself in the urgent need to ask seemingly pointless questions of the members of the Jedi Council. (BF6)
Veda Cloth  
this was a soft, luxurious cloth used to make ceremonial robes and cloaks. (JQ)

Vedd  
this man grew up in the swamps of Naboo, and grew to become a skilled guide and explorer. Shortly before the Battle of Naboo, Vedd established a small trading outpost in the swamps, and used his skills to assist the Royal Security Forces whenever needed. He supported Queen Amidala and the RSF, and helped the force during the liberation of the planet from the control of the Trade Federation. (BFN)
Vedder  
this Imperial Major was assigned to General Yrros, during the garrisoning of the planet Rhamalai. Like Yrros, Vedder was killed when the droid R2-4B self-destructed, destroying much of the Imperial base. (SWJ13)
Vedij, Dhas Feneop  
this man was the son of Ronnan Tyla Vedij and a native of Coruscant. Like his father, Dhas joined the Imperial Navy and had a distinguished career. After earning the rank of Captain, Dhas was promoted to serve aboard the frigate Far Orbit. He was second in command of the Far Orbit when Alderaan was destroyed, and had become disgruntled with the leadership of Captain Kenit. The destruction of the planet, and the propaganda that followed, further soured Vedij's loyalty to the Empire. The deaths of his parents in a so-called traffic accident added fuel to the fire. After Kenit ordered the destruction of the Silent Blades, losing an entire starfighter squadron - and Elon Vedij's life in the process - Dhas could no longer contain his hatred of Kenit and the Empire. Vedij and a group of followers (about two-thirds of the crew) staged a mutiny, and successfully wrested control of the frigate from Captain Kenit. They then became independent privateers, and allied themselves with the Alliance in order to obtain funding and strike back at the Empire. Vedij and his crew participated in a series of raids on Imperial installations in the Ringali Shell, during the Alliance's experiment in using pirates and privateers to assist in the Galactic Civil War. (FOP)
Vedij, Elon  
this man was Dhas Vedij's younger brother. Like his father and brother before him, Elon joined the Imperial Navy, and later served with Dhas aboard the Far Orbit as a starfighter pilot. When Captain Kenit ordered the destruction of the Silent Blades, he ordered a full squadorn of starfighters to attack their base. Elon's squadron was dispatched, but was eventually wiped out by the pirates. Elon was killed in the assault. (FOP)
Vedij, Ronnan Tyla  
a Baron with family holdings on Coruscant, Ronnan was not content to live a comfortable life like his ancestors. Instead, he elected to join the Imperial Navy and serve the Emperor. He led a distinguished career, earning the rank of Captain after saving his ship and crew from a pirate attack after the death of his commanding officer and after receiving serious wounds himself. Vedij ended his career as a full Admiral, and retired to the family estate on Coruscant. After retiring, Ronnan began voicing his opinion of the Emperor's use of a huge war machine to scare the galaxy into submission. Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, he and his wife were killed in what was officially deemed a traffic accident. (FOP)

Vee Naaq  
this Gran was a noted poet, who managed to bypass the normal Gran social structure and avoid being a fluidics technician. He was engaged to marry the Gran named Cera Vixe, but her brother, Boe Vixe, refused to let the marriage take place. He hired a group of freelance spacers to rescue himself and Cera from Kinyen, in an effort to escape Boe's influence. (IA)
Vee, Tabbins  
this Imperial stormtrooper was part of the detachment sent to Golrath, as part of Lieutenant Giel's mission to discover the whereabouts of the Alliance, shortly after the Battle of Hoth. Vee had graduated from the Imperial Academy with his friend, Bens Figg, although Vee was always second in line to Figg's exploits. Whatever Figg earned, Vee seemed to earn it shortly afterward. When Leia Organa infiltrated the Imperial base on Golrath, Vee was knocked unconscious just after Figg, allowing Leia to gain further access to the base. (MC65)
Veedaaz Awmetth  
this red-skinned humanoid represented his homeworld of Sarrish in the Galactic Senate during the height of the Clone Wars. Senator Awmetth was originally trained as a member of the Sarrish Defense Force, and continued to wear the tunic of an officer during his tenure in the Seante. (VD3)
Veedo Vaocan  
this Rodian spurned all the violent and agressive tendencies of his species, and shunned the holidays which Rodians held to venerate hunters and warriors. Eventually, Veedo was exiled from Rodia and was discovered by the Alliance. In an effort to remain peaceful during the epic conflict which spread through the galaxy, Veedo choose to study medicine, and eventually became a renowned doctor. Known as "Doc Rodian," Veedo served as the chief medic at the Tierfon base for many years. He was recognizable by the missing antennae on the right side of his head, the result of being too close to a battlefield explosion. Thus, he could only hear with his left side. (HR)

Veema  
this plump woman joined Kyp Durron and the Kyp's Dozen starfighter squadron shortly before Coruscant fell to the Yuuzhan Vong. She was an affable woman, but she had a short temper and never forgot any slight against her. Veema was killed when the Dozen showed up after the Yuuzhan Vong had taken Coruscant. Her ship holed by a plasma bomb, while she was trying to escort a freighter full of refugees away from Coruscant. Her X-Wing exploded, killing Veema and setting off a chain reaction which destroyed the freighter as well. (DJ)
Veerdo Veerone  
this Rodian dramatist was known as the author of The Unquiet Spirit Arises from the Swamp, and immense play. (HR)
Veermok  
this vicious, gorilla-like creature was native to the planet Naboo. The veermok inhabited the plains and forests of the planet, staying well away from the swamps. They were quite large and very fast on their feet, and have sharp teeth and large claws with which to attack their prey. The Gungans often use veermoks as guards for their waste yards, and a veermok trained from birth could become loyal and protective to its master. In the wild, veermoks were solitary beasts that congregating only during the mating season. (SW1, SON, WSW)
Veermok  
this was the alias used by the obese, bald man who was one of Naboo's most wanted criminals, during the reign of King Veruna. He was linked by Lieutenant Panaka to the Gungan criminal Kroke Modbom, after Panaka discovered Veermok's team in the caves below Naboo's surface. He admitted to Panaka that he and his forces were working to find the balance between the human and Gungan natives of Naboo, hoping to break the pro-human government of King Veruna and unite the peoples of the planet. Veermok understood that the Gungans were the true natives of Naboo, and that they were able to sense when the planet's natural balance was disrupted. Veermok had captured Panaka, but the death throes of a sando aqua monster disrupted his plans and allowed Panaka to get free. Veermok was killed when he was killed by Sate Pestage, on Naboo to take custody of Kroke Modbom. Pestage's laser blast took him square in the chest. Panaka demanded that Pestage be arrested on charges of murder and conspiracy, but Captain Magneta refused to grant this wish. (GMR2)

Veers, Maximillian  
Veers has been an Imperial soldier nearly his entire life. He trained as the commander of an All-Terrain Armored Transport. He was part of General Irrv's mission to subdue the planet Culroon III, and was nearly court-martialled for telling Irrv that the ruse of a peaceful ceremony would be less effective than an all-out assault on the Culroon people. When Veers was proven correct, Irrv was executed by Commander Grath, who then promoted Veers to Major. Veers learned that mistakes were not to be tolerated by the Empire, and when Davin Felth pointed out that the AT-AT was vulnerable due to its legs, he carefully hid the information and shipped Felth off to Tatooine. Veers was assigned to the first Death Star, and managed to escape in a shuttle just before the battle station exploded. His shuttle crashed on Yavin 4, and he was forced to survive for days before an Imperial rescue team found him. After assuming the rank of Colonel, he was part of the garrison stationed on Corellia during the early years of the New Order, and was dispatched by Grand Admiral Thrawn to "assist" Hal and Corran Horn in capturing Zekka Thyne. After Thrawn described Veers' bravery and leadership skills to Darth Vader, Veers was promoted to Imperial Army General, and he led the AT-AT assault on the Hoth Rebel base. Veers again survived the battle, after jumping free of his walker when it was destroyed by a disabled Alliance snowspeeder. He later served under Executor Sedriss during Operation Shadow Hand, and died during the Battle of Balmorra. Note that in the novelization of Star Wars: Epsiode V - The Empire Strikes Back, Veers was killed when Hobbie crashs his disabled snowspeeder into Veers' walker, disabling the walker and causing it to explode. Veers was portrayed by Julian Glover in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. Veers was also portrayed by Gordon Gould for The Empire Strikes Back Radio Drama on National Public Radio.

Veers, Zevulon  
the son of Maximillian Veers, Zev grew up wondering why the Empire stood for so many wonderful things, yet destroyed entire races and enslaved others. He reluctantly joined his local SAGroup battalion, but the New Order was notvery much to his liking. When his father told him that certain comments and questions Zev had made were endangering his career, Zev vowed to be anything but like his father. He endured his Imperial training, as well as the glory his father received from the Battle of Hoth. When his commanding officer brutally torture an elderly man suspected of supporting the Alliance, Zev's better judgement took over. He helped the man, and was taken prisoner by Alliance agents trying to rescue him. Zev was questioned, but the Alliance could find no reason to distrust him. Zev became an Alliance soldier just prior to the Battle of Endor. As a gunner in the New Republic navy, he served aboard the Emancipator during the first Battle of Calamari. He was also part of the assault which attacked Byss by hiding inside the Emperor's shipment of Viper Automadons. (DE1, DESB, DE2)
VeerTa  
this Meerian woman was the leader of the Home Planet Party, some 12 years before the Battle of Naboo. She was fiercely loyal to her people and her homeworld of Bandomeer, and strove to forge an alliance with the Arconans that shared the planet in order to restore it to its natural beauty. However, in order to further her plans and ideals, VeerTa entered into a secret pact with Xanatos. This put her in between her own political party, which worked with Arcona Mineral Harvest Corporation, and the leaders of Offworld Mining Company. VeerTa hoped that this alliance would free Bandomeer once Xanatos had exacted his revenge against Qui-Gon Jinn, but she ultimately discovered that she was just a pawn in Xanatos' plans to destroy the planet. VeerTa was exposed after Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan Kenobi thwarted Xanatos' plans, and she was removed from office. (DR)

this Arcona was a member of the crew of the New Republic starship FarStar, during the hunt for Moff Sarne. He had been outcast from Cona for an unknown deed, although it may have had something to do with his addiction to salt.

Vehn, Remis  
this man was a member of the Peace Brigade team which blockaded the Yavin System, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. However, Vehn claimed to have no affiliation with the Peace Brigade when he was approached by Anakin Skywalker. Anakin had been trying to rescue Sannah, Valin Horn, and Tahiri Veila, and needed Vehn's ship to take them away from Yavin 4. Vehn, fearing that the Jedi would melt his brain if he refused, allowed them to take the ship. He then allowed himself to be "forced" to cooperate, believing that the Jedi would take control of his mind if he didn't. Remis's beliefs about the Jedi were straighted out after he was paired with Qorl. The two were supposed to wait for Anakin's rescue of Tahiri, avoiding the Yuuzhan Vong at all costs. The pair managed to survive, and rescued Anakin and Tahiri just as they escaped the damutek complex of the Shapers. (EVC)

Veila, Cassa  
this woman was Tahiri Veila's mother. Cassa and her husband, Tryst, were strong with the Force, and they were among the more compassionate of the moisture farmers on Tatooine during the early years of the New Republic. When they found the Tusken Raider Sliven after his tribe was attacked by smugglers, Cassa and Tryst took him in and nursed him back to health. Sliven never forgot their generosit or their compassion, especially after spending time with their daughter, Tahiri. After several months, Sliven was nearly strong enough to return to his tribe. He had begun teaching Tryst how to fight with a gaderffi as a way to build up his own strength. However, Sliven was unaware that his tribe was still searching for him. A group of Tusken Raiders came upon the Veila farm and witnessed Sliven and Tryst practicing with their gaderffi sticks. Believing that Sliven was in trouble, the Raiders attacked and killed both Tryst and Cassa in order to recover him. Tahiri was taken in and raised by the Tusken Raiders after Sliven demanded that she be adopted, much to the dismay of Vexa. (P, ECH)
Veila, Tahiri  
a native of the planet Tatooine, Tahiri was suddenly orphaned as a young child when her parents were killed in the desert by Tusken Raiders. They were moisture farmers, and Tahiri grew up with the determination of her parents. She would have died of exposure, but she was taken in by Sliven and his tribe and raised as one of their own for five years. When she was nine, Luke Skywalker and Tionne found her on Tatooine, and she was allowed to accompany them to Yavin 4 to attend the Junior Jedi Academy. She befriended Anakin Solo, and the two suddenly discovered that they were experiencing the same dream. The dream led them to discover the Golden Globe beneath the Palace of the Woolamander, and introduced them to the ancient Jedi Master Ikrit. She was a very natural child, preferring to walk around the jungle complexes in her bare feet in order to feel the world around her. She was known for her pale yellow hair and green eyes. After solving the puzzle of the Golden Globe, Tahiri continued to study on Yavin 4. She befriended Anakin despite the fact that he was two years older, and she eventually graduated into the Jedi praxeum and training under Kam Solusar and Tionne. While on Dagobah, Tahiri discovered that her grandfather had actually been a Jedi Knight, but had been hunted down and killed during the Jedi Purge ordered by Emperor Palpatine. When the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, Tahiri found herself trapped on Yavin 4 with Sannah and Valin Horn. The two younger students managed to reach Kam Solusar, but Tahiri was captured. She was given over to Mezhan Kwaad and Nen Yim, who kept her under control long enough to map her neural pathways in an attempt to isolate the Force. The goal of the Shapers was to create a living bridge between the Yuuzhan Vong and the Jedi Knights. Part of Tahiri's captivity involved the breaking of her will and the implanting of memories that twisted her sense of reality. Mezhan Kwaad hoped to alter Tahiri's mind into believing that she was, in fact, a Yuuzhan Vong adept who had been captured by the New Republic's infidels. Tahiri struggled to maintain her link to the Force, although she barely managed to keep herself whole before Anakin rescued her. When she realized that he loved her, Tahiri dragged herself out of the false memories implanted in her mind, although she maintained the illusion of being a cooperative slave long enough to trick Mezhan Kwaad. Tahiri then picked up Anakin's lightsaber and beheaded Mezhan Kwaad, and she escaped Yavin 4 with Anakin. She feared that her killing of Mezhan Kwaad had also destroyed her mind, but Anakin swore he would help her recover. Tahiri soon regained control of her mind, although the Yuuzhan Vong language and demeanor remained within her. This allowed her to communicate in with the alien invaders, as well as to understand them during conversation. After capturing the Stalking Moon, Tahiri and Anakin discovered that their relationship had taken another step, as they began to fall in love. Unfortunately for Tahiri, Anakin was killed while trying to kill the voxyn queen at Myrkr. Tahiri had to watch as he fell, and she sank into a deep state of despair. She continued to fight as a Jedi Knight, but her spirit had been quelled. At the suggestion of Saba Sebatyne, Tahiri joined a group of Jedi aboard the Ralroost near Kashyyyk, in an effort to develop a technique to Force-meld minds together. While the exercise had a decidedly military outcome, Saba correctly guessed that the close promixity of other Jedi minds would help bring Tahiri out of her shell. Tahiri was ostensibly promoted to squadron commander under Kre'fey's command, working as an advisor to the fleet which massed as Kashyyyk and launched raids on Yuuzhan Vong-controlled space. Her Barefoot Squadron proved to be loyal and dedicated, and helped to build her confidence as a pilot and leader. However, Anakin's death and her imprisonment by the Yuuzhan Vong continued to plague her mind, and her connection to the Force flared up stringly whenever she encountered a Yuuzhan Vong individual or artifact. She fainted into deep unconsciousness after the Galactic Alliance regrouped at Calamari, one on Calamari itself and later on Galantos when she found a pendant depicting Yun-Yammka. These spells worried Jaina Solo the most, since she too retained a connection to Anakin. It was later discovered that the spells were caused by the Riina Kwaad personality, which was trying to survive by casting out Tahiri's mind. Riina even found a way to use Tahiri's connection to the Force, and the Ryn Goure was the first to suggest that Tahiri had to find a way to live with Riina in order to survive. This process took many painful months, until Tahiri herself realized that killing Riina would mean killing herself. The two personalities found a way to merge, and the new being which resulted from this union was a perfect combination of Jedi Knight and Yuuzhan Vong. After a brief mission to Dagobah, Tahiri found herself bound to a promise of izai she made to Hul Qat, and she requested permission to locate Yu'shaa, the Prophet of the Yuuzhan Vong Shamed Ones on Coruscant. Accomanpied by Corran Horn, Tahiri managed to infiltrate Coruscant, which had been reformed into a simulacrum of the long-lost planet Yuuzhan'tar. Along with the Prophet, Tahiri and Corran picked up Harrar and Nen Yim before fleeing Coruscant and setting out for Zonama Sekot. On the planet, Tahiri found herself in the middle of the struggle between Nom Anor and the living planet, shortly after she discovered that the former Executor had killed Nen Yim. After the Yuuzhan Vong surrendered at Coruscant some months later, Tahiri decided to remain on Zonama Sekot with Tekli and the Yuuzhan Vong, in an effort to learn more about herself and her relationship with Riina. Master Skywalker had one final request for her as she left with the planet: to locate the Widowmaker so that it could be brought home safely. Five years later, when UnuThul sent out his call for help, Tahiri was among seven young Jedi who dropped whatever mission they were currently on and traveled to the Unknown Regions to answer the call. Unlike Zekk and Jaina Solo, Tahiri believed that the Chiss were planning to destroy every hive of the Colony, despite the fact that the Force had given the Jedi no indications of the true nature of the conflict.

Veila, Tryst  
this man was Tahiri Veila's father. Tryst and his wife, Cassa, were strong with the Force, and they were among the more compassionate of the moisture farmers on Tatooine during the early years of the New Republic.

Vel  
this Toydarian slicer worked with Erli Prann and his group of salvage pirates, during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. It was Vel's hard work that revealed the possible existence of one of the Golan II battle stations in the Bilbringi System. After he cracked into a Imperial computer system, Vel managed to learn that the stationed had been cloaked by Grand Admiral Thrawn, and was still at Bilbringi. The pirates then acquired a crystal grav-trap detector and located the battle station. However, the Yuuzhan Vong capture of the Bilbringi shipyards forced them into hiding. It was Erli Prann who allowed the station to be located by the crew of the Mon Mothma during Operation Trinity, so that he could lure hyperdrive-capable ships to the station. In this way, the pirates could salvage the hyperdrives from the New Republic ships and use them to power the battle station. Despite Vel's vigilance, Jaina Solo managed to use the Force to alter Prann's recollection of his hyperspace jump coordinates, and the station ended up trying to jump through a Yuuzhan Vong interdictor. While Prann and his people weren't clear of the Yuuzhan Vong, their proximity to the interdictor allowed them to pound the ship and clear an escape route for the Galactic Alliance forces. Prann then tried to fight his way clear, but Vel demanded that he surrender the Golan station to the Galactic Alliance. He refused, but was eventually subdued. Once he was remvoed from control, Vel and the rest of the pirates agreed to turn the station over. (FP)

Vel, Ailyn  
this black-haired young woman was the daughter of Sintas Vel and Boba Fett, although her parentage remained a well-kept secret. When Ailyn was sixteen, her mother was killed on a mission that was supposed to have funded her birthday present. Orphaned and alone, Ailyn became obsessed with hunting down her father. She became a well-known hunt saboteur, hoping to get the chance to work against Boba Fett and confront him. She believed that she had finally killed him in the Extrictarium Nebula, but her victim turned out to be the insane clone Alpha-02. She took his armor and used it to masquerade as Fett, taking away from his image in much the same way that Jodo Kast once had. Despite her actions, Ailyn held true to the Bounty Hunter's Creed, but she took any bounty she could fond. Ailyn worked for many employers, including the Diversity Alliance and Bwahl the Hutt. After believing Fett to be dead on Shogun, Ailyn permanently adopted his identity, but she disappeared during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. (SWI80)
Vel, Sintas  
this raven-haried Kiffu woman was one of the galaxy's lesser-known bounty hunters. Nevertheless, Sintas was quite skilled and able to track her targets for long periods of time. It was rumored that she was, at one time, married to Boba Fett and became the mother of Fett's child. Their split was amicable, but was one of the galaxy's best-kept secrets. The loanshark Pizztov claimed to have a hologram which portrayed their family, and threatened to auction it off at the Eport auction house if Fett didn't accede to his demands. In the end, Pizztov was shot and killed by Fett, who acknowledged Sintas' part in his life and then left her to ponder their failed relationship. Sintas continued to work as a bounty hunter, although only to support her yougn daughter, Ailyn. Unfortunately, Sintas was killed during a mission to earn some pin-money, leaving Ailyn an orphan.

Velcar Free Commerce Zone  
despite what its name implies, the Velcar Free Commerce Zone was a secretive, restrictive sector of the galaxy governed by a group of Master Commerce Commissioners. It controlled by the Pentastar Alignment during the early years of the New Republic, as many of its corporate leaders allied themselves with Moff Ardus Kaine. Many of the star systems within the VFCZ were inhabited by primitive species, and the corporate leaders were not afraid to use them as "indentured laborers," having loyally served the Empire years before.

Velerinden, Kullan  
this man was the son of a petty thief, and was native to the planet Elrood. After trying to attack an off-duty Imperial officer, Kullan was beaten to within an inch of his life and given two choices: go to jail or enlist in the Imperial Army. He enlisted, and became known as a resourceful, brave warrior who could pilot an AT-ST as if it were part of himself. However, his background was never far from his mind, and he set himself up as his unit's procurement officer. In this position, he worked to obtain the best supplies for his unit, only to turn around and sell them to black marketeers in return for lesser-quality supplies. In this way, Kullan made a small fortune for himself without the Empire knowing about it. The fortune did Kullan little good personally, as he gambled most of it away. When a more honorable officer discovered his duplicity and threatened to expose him, Kullan used all his political favors to destroy his accuser's credability and then got himself placed in charge of a small command on the planet Tasariq to avoid further attention. (SWJ15)

Velin Wir  
a member of the Caarite race, Velin Wir served the Metatheran Cartel as the primary representative on the planet Cularin, many years before the Battle of Naboo. He was considered porcine in appearance, moreso than most members of his race, and just a little too soft to be believable. Many beings considered him nothing more than a sleazy politician, sent to Cularin to quell the population into believing the Cartel was acting in the best interests of the local population. Velin Wir also had some sensitivity to the Force, and even managed to obtain a working lightsaber to defend himself with. Unknown to Wir, the lightsaber was made available to him by agents of Riboga, who had placed a small transmitter inside the hilt. The transmitter sent a signal to a small thermal detonator which had been secretly placed in Wir's chest, forcing him to keep the lightsaber within ten feet of his body at all times. Near the end of Wir's tenure on Cularin, the Cartel presented a fully-armed freighter to the Cularin people, as a gesture of their goodwill and assistance in defending the planet. It was discovered that the ship - known as the XP-38 - was fitted with a transmitter that relayed a wealth of data back to an undiscovered source. The people of Cularin viewed this as a breach of trust. Shortly after this discovery, Velin Wir mysteriously passed away, although many contributed his death to the underground resistance that sprang up to fight against the Cartel. His death set off a public relations nightmare for the Cartel, which eventually led to the Cularin government expelling the Cartel from any further operations on the planet. (LFC, LFCW, EOS)
Velker  
a V-shaped, flying predator native to the planet Bespin, the velker was the primary hunter of the balloon-shaped beldon. These creatures are covered with a tough, armor-like hide, and have hard claws. The velkers are pack-hunters, and will gang up on any beldons they happen to find in the upper atmosphere. The pack will first rip open the beldon's gasbag, which causes it to begin to sink. The velkers then feed on the carcass as it sinks, a feast which can last for days due to the huge size of the average beldon. Velkers are fast flyers, and they generate a small electric field around their bodies. This field helped disrupt the beldon's own electrical field, allowing the velker to get close enough to attack without warning the beldon. The field also served as a defense mechanism. (GG2, ISU, WSW)
Vellam, Nox  
this former Imperial General served as the Governor of the Bright Jewel System and its surrounding sector during the height of the New Order. Shortly before the Battle of Yavin, several of Vellam's planets were discovered to be minor bases used by the Alliance in the area, and Vellam was forced to explain this to the Emperor. Palpatine punished Vellam by placing five of his most productive planets under the control of Darth Vader. Vellam became angry with Vader, but found himself helpless to do anything about. Then the Battle of Yavin took place, and Vader was lost in his TIE Advanced starfighter. Vellam was disgraced when it was learned that the Alliance had been using Yavin 4 as a base, a moon in a system that was under Vellam's control. When Vader's cockpit suddenly appeared on Ord Mantell - right in the middle of the Bright Jewel System - Vellam tried to recover it and eliminate Vader. Unfortunately for Vellam, the cockpit was recovered by Captain Sodarra and his team and brought to Tatooine. (SL, GORW)

Because of the planet's oceanic nature and the frequent seismic activity that altered its minimal landmass, Velusia was often overlooked by spacegoing travelers. The planet was first colonized several millennia before the Battle of Yavin by a group of human explorers. Over the intervening millennia, these humans evolved into the aquatic race known as the Aquar. During the last decades of the Old Republic, Velusia was controlled by the Nexcore Mining Corporation, which tried to strip the oceans of their mineral content.

Vena Isolationists  
this was the name given to the grassroots organization that evolved on the planet Vena, after Baron Kindoro and his wife, Omnino, began entering into trade agreements with other planets. Historically, the Venans had remained a neutral body, avoiding any direct relationship with the Old Republic. Kindoro and Omnino, however, had become used to the lifestyle of an ambassador and his wife, and could not find the luxuries they enjoyed on their homeworld. The Baron and his wife allowed Republic corporations to used Venan resources in exchange for various amenities and luxury items, much to the chagrin of the general population. The Venan Isolations began sabotaging the various business dealings of the royalty, and these actions escalated into outright terrorism after the death of Baron Kindoro. The Baroness Omnino found herself powerless to stop the terrorist attacks, until she purchased mind-control technology in an attempt to quell the population. A radical group of Isolationists tried to assassinate the Baroness, but failed when they were thwarted by the Jedi Knights. However, the Isolationsists eventually achieved their goals when Omnino was killed by Qui-Gon Jinn, after she took Chancellor Finis Valorum hostage. (WOTC, LSOM)

He had a wealth of experience working in the field, and had developed a rapport with the lowlifes who made up the criminal underworld. Takkar ordered him to recruit swoop gangs and other ruffians to help disrupt the wedding. However, Chala's recruits proved to be no match for Luke and his friends, including Han Solo and Wedge Antilles. In a last-ditch attempt to halt the wedding, Chala and Iry Danta tried to infiltrate the wedding ceremony.

Venator-class Star Destroyer  
this Old Republic warship was considered by historians to be the first, true Star Destroyer produced in the galaxy, although it was actually classified as an assault cruiser, and followed the development and manufacture of the Victory-class Star Destroyer. Developed at the onset of the Clone Wars to be front-line warships, the Venator-class Star Destroyer was at the forefront of the news when three of the first ships were rerouted to protect the planet Rodia, instead of being dispatched to the planet Duro. Duro fell shortly afterward to General Grievous and the Separatists, and Senator Onaconda Farr was charged with falsifying the orders that should have put the ships at Duro. The Venator-class Star Destroyer was produced by Kuat Drive Yards, and measured 1,137 meters in length, 268 meters in height, and 548 meters across the widest part of its hull. It required a crew of 7,400 to operate, and was armed with eight DBY-827 heavy turbolaser turrets, a pair of medium dual turbolaser cannons, fifty-two laser cannons, four proton topedo tubes, and six tractor beam projectors. Several Venator-class ships in the Open Circle Armada were also armed with the superlasers from SPHA-T walkers, mounted near the ventral docking bay at the direction of Anakin Skywalker, to give the vessel a ventral firing arc. The Venator-class Star Destroyer filled a number of different roles for the Old Republic, including pursuit of smaller ships and independent sieges. It could also land on a planet's surface, allowing it to deploy troops and vehicles directly onto a battlefield. The hangars of the Venator-class Star Destroyer were connected to a dorsal flight deck that ran the length of the ship down the central spine, and could accommodate 192 V-Wing fighters, 192 Eta-2 Actis Interceptors, thirty-six ARC-170 fighters, twenty-four walkers, and forty LAAT/i gunships. During launch, these ships exited from the nose of vessel, but only after a pair of heavy blast doors were opened. These blast doors were considered the vessel's only weakness, since they took a long time to open and close, leaving the vessel vulnerable to a starfighter bombing run. Starfighters returning to a Venator-class vessel entered the hangars from a ventral docking bay. A Class-1 hyperdrive allowed the vessel to reach any battleground within 60,000 light-years with incredible speed for a vessel of its size. By the end of the Clone Wars, the Venator-class Star Destroyer had outlived its usefulness, and was phased out in favor of the Imperial-class and Tector-class Star Destroyers. (SWI76, LEV, X3)

Following the Battle, Han Solo was contracted to pick them up on Ord Vaug and return them to Vandelhelm, an action which would help restore ore shipments to Fondor. They were necessary because they held the control codes which could be used to move the ore convoy out of the system.

an Imperial-I class Star Destroyer operative during the Galactic Civil War, the Vengeance III was the flagship that invaded the Taroon System. The ship was later placed under the command of the Imperial Inquisitor Jerec, who installed the computer core from the original Vengeance in the ship, so that he could preserve the information it contained. In the wake of the destruction of the original Vengeance, the numerical portion of the name Vengeance II was dropped. When Jerec was allowed to take command of a Super Star Destroyer as his flagship, the Vengeance II was then assigned to the famous Death Squadron, after having its cargo holds refitted to hold additional TIE Fighters. Later, the Vengeance II was turned over to the Imperial agent Blackhole by Jerec and was stationed near Byss, as part of the planet's defense network. (TIE, DE2, CCG9, WOTC)

Ventor and Ettene were part of the team of Jedi who were believed lost when they were dispatched to resolve the growing conflict between the Virgillian Free Alignment and the Virgillian Aristocracy. Their transport was destroyed upon arrival, and it was feared that the four Jedi were killed. Halagad managed to survive the mission, however. He later served under Obi-Wan Kenobi during the Clone Wars, and was a distinguished warrior. Shortly after the start of Emperor Palpatine's rule of the galaxy, Ventor was captured by Darth Vader and brutally interrogated. All the information Halagad knew of the Jedi was stripped from him mind, and the Jedi Purge was virtually a complete success. Halagad, traumatized by the interrogation and the death of the Jedi, fled to Trinta. There, he succombed to the Dark Side nexus that was located on the planet, and gave himself over to the energies of the Dark Side of the Force. He was discovered nearly two decades later by a group of Alliance field agents who crashed on the planet, and their bravery and trust in the Light Side of the Force eventually brought Halagad out of his despair. Upon learning of the survival of Kenobi and the appearance of Luke Skywalker, Halagad fought against the Dark Side and defeated it, but died shortly afterward. His body disintgrated, and he became one with the Force. (DOE, HNN4)

Verdun, Tic  
this man was a pratical theorist who specialized in the investigation of planetary origins, during the last decades of the Old Republic. Doctor Verdun was part of the team, led by Doctor Fort Turan, which traveled to Haariden to investigate the effects of a volcanic environment on the planet's atmospherics and ecosystem. When the team was beset by Haaridan rebels who had broken the tentative cease-fire, it was Doctor Verdun who managed to keep them one step ahead of the rebels. His survival skills kept the team alive for several weeks, until Obi-Wan Kenobi and Soara Antana and their Padawans, Anakin Skywalker and Darra Thel-Tanis, could arrive and rescue them. Obi-Wan later discovered that Doctor Verdun had been added to the team of scientists at the request of Senator Sano Sauro, who had been the committee chairperson who proposed the mission to Haariden. Further investigation led Obi-Wan to the inevitable conclusion: Tic Verdun was actually Granta Omega. Anakin had already discovered this, though, after befriending Tic and meeting with him several times back on Coruscant. Using the guise of Tic, Omega managed to lure Anakin into a place where he could be drugged, so that Omega and his conspirators could question the young Padawan on the nature of the Force. Anakin managed to escape, with help from Obi-Wan, and exposed Omega's true identity. (JQ4)
Vered  
one of the Empire's last remaining Moffs, Vered met with the other seven major Imperial leaders on Bastion to discuss Admiral Pellaeon's proposed peace treaty with the New Republic some ten years after the death of Thrawn.

Verga Mer Mining Company  
this was one of the largest mining operations which worked in the Cularin System during the last decades of the Old Republic. They employed what they called a "purely organic workforce," removing all their droid laborers as part of a media campaign to attract itinerent workers in the system. The Verga Mer Mining Company was originally founded by Verga Nus and Mer Stodiz, and grew it into a company known for its ability to accomplish whatever goals it set for itself, in the most expedient manner possible. (LFCW)
Verga Nus  
this Sullustan was one of the founders of the Verga Mer Mining Company, along with Mer Stodiz. The pair had to deal with a number of setbacks during the years following the Battle of Naboo, primarily the poor economic conditions brought about by the Clone Wars, but they managed to keep VMMC a profitable business. (LFC, WOTC)
Vergence  
this was a term used by the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic to describe an intense concentration of the Force. Most often, vergences were associated with relics and places, but sometimes they were centered on a living being. This being often had a high concentration of midi-chlorians in their body, and could touch and use the Force with little or no training. (SW1)
Vergere  
this feathered, avian was a member of the Fosh species. Vergere was also a Jedi Knight, and she was dispatched to Zonama Sekot two years after the Battle of Naboo, in an effort to discover the source of Sekotan starships. The Jedi received no communication from her for a year. Her Master, Thracia Cho Leem, feared for her life, and requested that the Jedi Council send another party to try and find her. Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker eventually discovered that, during her attempt to bond with a Sekotan starship, the planet was attacked by a group of Far Outsiders. In an effort to draw them away from the living planet, Vergere engendered herself to them and allowed herself to be taken by them, in exchange for the safety of Zonama Sekot. She left behind a message for any Jedi who followed her to Zonama Sekot, in the seed-partners she had to leave behind, warning them of the presence of the Yuuzhan Vong. She then dedicated herself to closing off the Force and pretending to be a loyal familiar of the Yuuzhan Vong priestess, Falung. During this time, she learned everything she could about the aliens, while giving out as little information as she could. She knew that the Old Republic's meager armed forces would be no match for the Yuuzhan Vong. Decades later, she returned to the known galaxy, posing as a familiar to the Yuuzhan Vong priestess, Elan. Vergere had never given up hope of returning to the galaxy, but served Elan faithfully while biding her time. When Elan was chosen to act as a hostage to the New Republic, in an effort to destroy the Jedi Knights, Vergere accompanied her as a loyal servant. Vergere then revealed her true heritage to Elan, but did not reveal her position as a Jedi. In reality, Vergere was looking for a way to return home. After Elan was killed by the bo'tous she planned to use on the Jedi, Vergere gave Han Solo a sample of her tears, which she had chemically manipulated with the Force. In addition to simple lacrymal fluid, the tears contained an unusual substance which counteracted the effects of the coomb spores. During her captivity among the Yuuzhan Vong, Vergere had learned to internalize the Force, and use it to keep herself alive without revealing her true identity to her captors. These tears eventually allowed Mara Jade Skywalker to recover from her illness. Vergere, once free of Elan, fled the Millennium Falcon in an escape pod, and returned to the Yuuzhan Vong. She later supplied Warmaster Tsavong Lah with information on the Millennium Falcon, to satisfy Tsavong Lah's quest to capture and kill Jacen Solo. In this way, Vergere became Nom Anor's chief rival among the Warmaster's underlings, a situation which was as dangerous as it was favorable. When the Jedi Knights discovered the voxyn creche in orbit around Myrkr, Vergere allowed herself to "help" the Jedi, giving the Yuuzhan Vong a chance to capture Jacen Solo and bring the Warmaster one step closer to achieving his goals. Despite her treachery, Vergere paused long enough to cry for Jacen, exuding some of her healing tears to heal him in preparation for the torture he was to endure. Vergere then developed a relationship with Tsavong Lah, hoping to receive a chance to remain near Jacen. Her wish was granted when she and Nom Anor were placed in charge of the so-called Solo Project, during which time Vergere taught Jacen that there was more to the Force that light and dark. Although she refused to reveal her true intentions, Vergere gave Jacen enough information to push him in the proper direction. It was Vergere who stopped Jacen from destroying all the dhuryams bred by Master Shaper Ch'Gang Hool, which gave her just enough leeway to allow Jacen to be transported to Coruscant, which had been reshaped into a new version of Yuuzhan'tar. There, she continued his "training", until he discovered a way to befriend the World Brain. After establishing his connection to the mature dhuryam, Jacen and Vergere fled Coruscant on their own. They stole Nom Anor's coralcraft, hidden in the Well of the World Brain, in order to get off-planet. When Nom Anor accused Vergere of being a traitor to the True Way, she simply responded that she had learned it from him. Vergere remained with Jacen for several months, and eventually met Luke Skywalker. She continued to challenge the new Jedi about their beliefs about the Force, questioning the very definition of the Force in the light of the obviously-alive though Force-blank Yuuzhan Vong. She urged Jacen to follow his destiny, but was concerned when Jaina Solo was trapped during the Battle of Ebaq. When Jacen tried to rescue his sister, Vergere knew that his death would destroy any remaining hope the New Republic might have. So, she commandeered a starfighter and returned to the Yuuzhan Vong. She received permission from the Warmaster Tsavong Lah to return to his worldship, but never planned to actually land her craft. Instead, she used the access she had gained to the Yuuzhan Vong blockade to drive her starship into the surface of Ebaq 9, venting the mining shafts to the vacuum of space. This suicide mission was so sudden that the Yuuzhan Vong forces on the moon were unable to place their ooglith masquers over their faces before they lost consciousness and died. Jacen and the New Republic team on the moon, however, managed to survive. Jacen himself was visited by the spirit of Vergere, and later understood Vergere's concern over his emotional actions. He then pledged to honor her memory by following the Force to his own destiny. (RP, HT, JE, EVR, SBS, T, DW)
Vergesso Asteroid Field  
located in the Lybeya System in the Rim Territories, the Vergesso Asteroid Field was actually a collection of five distinct belts of planetary debris. Scientists and archaeologists have raised a number of theories about the system, but most seem to agree that some extraordinary force ripped apart every planet in the system and scattered their debris into the asteroid belts. The fields were named for Doctor Ecile Vergesso, who did the first work on the formation of the field. The Vergesso Asteroids were used by Ororo Transportation to hide a shipyard on one of the larger asteroids, known as Vergesso Base. The base was also used as a stopover point for much of the Tenloss Syndicate's spice trade. Xizor, displeased with Ororo for trying to horn in on his spice trade, provided the location of the shipyards to Darth Vader, telling Vader that the coordinates were for an Alliance shipyards. Xizor damaged Ororo and gained favor with the Empire in one blow. (SE, SESB)
Vergesso Base  
this was the name of Ecile Vergesso's base of exploration, during his survey of the asteroid belts which surrounded the star Lybeya.

Verkuyl  
a planet which was under Imperial control until early in the New Republic, Verkuyl was known as an alazhi manufacturing center which survived outside the control of the Bacta Cartel. It was also known as an Outer Rim backwater world with an incredible odor, generated from the alazhi production. It is one of the few planets in the galaxy with forests of alazhi trees. The planet was originally purchased by Corlin Quarle Deld, who imported workers by getting them to sign ten-year indentured contracts. Over the years, the natives became virtual slaves to Verkuylian BactaCo, until the planet was nationalized by the Empire. The Empire helped eliminate one form of slavery, and instituted another. The New Republic eventually liberated Verkuyl, but it was unknown whether the natives truly wanted to be freed. The average day on the planet lasts about 27 standard hours, and its year lasts 315 local days. (TFNR, SWJ13)
Verkuylian BactaCo  
this bacta-producing corporation, based on the planet Verkuyl, was the only such facility known to operate outside the control of the Bacta Cartel headquartered on Thyferra. During the height of the New Order, many of the corporation's leaders - as well as many of Verkuyl's political leaders - abandoned the philosophy of self-ownership and aligned themselves with the Empire. It was founded by Corlin Quarle Deld, who manned the operation with indentured workers. While not exactly slaves, the workers eventually owned more to the BactaCo than their small salaries paid. The corporation was nationalized by the Empire when it took control of Verkuyl, and the workers were freed from their contracts. However, they were forced to work more hours with less time off. The New Republic later liberated Verkuyl and the BactaCo. (TFNR, SWJ13)

Pellaeon had hoped to begin negotiating a peace treaty with Bel Iblis, but Vermel's corvette was intercepted by a Star Destroyer dispatched by Moff Disra. Disra attempted to waylay Pellaeon's plans for peace, and captured Vermel before he could reach the New Republic. However, Vermel was able to send out a garbled transmission to Rogue Squadron shortly before he was taken captive. Vermel was then held at Rimcee Station, until Pellaeon could recover him. (SOP, VOF)

Verpine  
an insectile/reptilian race known for their ability to fix high-tech devices, they were the original settlers of the Roche asteroid system. Their exact homeworld remains a mystery even to the Verpine. The Verpine have developed a high level of technology, but retain a child-like sense of wonder at the galaxy around them. The Verpine body is thin and ungainly, and has only four limbs - two long arms and two thin legs. Their large, black eyes have evolved beyond the normal ability of the multifaceted eyes of most insects, allowing the Verpine to see incredible levels of detail. They live in hives of about 100 Verpine, and reproduction is only required when the population of the hive drops below a certain level. Despite their hive mentality, each Verpine is allowed individual thoughts. Their communal consciousness precludes the need for formal government. They have a body organ in their chest that allows them to emit radio waves and thus communicate with each other across distances. There is some discussion on the necessity of the Verpine's antenna, and the fact that the most criminal Verpine have always had damaged antennae. The Verpine were strong supporters of the Alliance, but didn't join it, although the Verpine helped Ackbar develop the B-wing fighter. Their system of mathematics is a base-6 system, which often presents unique difficulties in transferring their technology to humans, which use base-10. They built a series of hives in the Roche asteroids, and connected them with focused repulsor beams. (CPL, DFR, DFRSB, XWN, SFS, GG4)
Verpine  
this was the spoken language of the Verpine people, which could be spoken or communicated via radio waves to another individual. (UANT)
Verpine Bond Gauntlets  
similar to stabilizer gauntlets, bond gauntlets were designed by the Verpine race to imitate their exoskeletons. The gauntlets themselves were formed from a tensor-mesh material that stiffened the forearm of the wearer, allowing them to safely manipulate volatile materials with a minimum of extraneous movement. (KOTOR)
Verpine Headband  
developed during the era of the Great Sith War, this device was similar in many respects to a cyborg construct or other interface band. However, because the Verpine were operating outside the control of the Old Republic, they were able to build their headband to use extreme electrical force. Although this greatly increased the user's mental abilities, long-term usage caused many problems. (KOTOR)
Verpine Ocular Enhancer  
this form of cybernetic vision improvement system was developed for export by the Verpine, which had no need for such enhancements. The system was based on the idea of a visor, but the internal systems provided a visual acuity that was almost as good as that of the Verpine themselves. (KOTOR)

Sweat could be recycled for use in conducting heat throughout the suit, or it could be exuded to assist in cooling a body down. The micro-capillaries also allowed for a small amount of adaptive camouflage, changing color at a singal from a processor to help the wearer blend into a background. A helmet attached to the neck of the suitm providing a sealed environment in the vacuum of space. (GFT)
Verse'  
this woman was one of the three handmaidens assigned by Captain Typho to serve Senator Padme' Amidala, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars.

this man served as the King of the Naboo for thirteen years before Queen Amidala was elected to replace him. During his early yeras as King, Veruna clashed often with Senator Palpatine. Over time, however, Palpatine convinced Veruna to become more involved with offworld politics. This eventually led to Veruna's downfall. It was later discovered that Veruna was a corrupt leader, and was using the prosperity of the planet to fill his own coffers. He even provided a collection of underground storage facilities to Palaptine, which were used to dispose of the Senator's enemies. During their debates and election campaign, Veruna used Amidala's age as his primary platform. As the election wore on, the people tired of his bombastic assaults and started to listen to what Amidala was saying. They quickly understood that she was much smarter and better prepared to lead them, and voted Veruna out in a landslide vote. Following the election, Veruna was exiled to the Naboo Wastelands. He later died under mysterious circumstances, although many belived Veruna had been assassinated. (JQA, IG1, SON, NEGC)

Trained veshets could attack on command, or only after acquiring a certain scent. (LFCW)
Veshiv, Coh  
this Imperial advisor was captured by the crew of the Far Orbit, after they defected from Imperial service and struck out a privateers. Their mission to capture Veshiv was funded by the Alliance as part of the Far Orbit Project. Veshik himself was known as an annoying, self-centered blowhard who had been sent away from Coruscant on a "fact-finding" mission to the Ringali Shell in an effort to get rid of him. Veshiv's entire career had been based on knowing the secrets of others and using them to his own advantage, and he was generally regarded as one of Palpatine's best blackmail artists. When Dhas Vedij and the Far Orbit caught up to the Empire Forever and claimed to be their replacement as Veshiv's escort, Captain Annance gladly turned Veshiv over to the privateers, believing them to be Imperials. Veshiv's capture turned a great deal of Imperial attention on the Far Orbit, especially from former Captain Vocis Kenit. (FOP)

Vessery, Broak  
this Imperial Navy Colonel served Ysanne Isard, after she escaped death during the Battle of Thyferra. A tall, black-haired man who had the nervous habit of picking invisible pieces of lint from his uniform, Vessery and his ships were dispatched by Isard to recover as much of Rogue Squadron as they could from Corvis Minor Five, after the Rogues fell into a trap laid by Isard's clone and Prince-Admiral Krennel. Vessery then trained the Rogues in the use of the TIE Defender, in hopes that their combined skills could be infiltrated into Krennel's forces and used to bring the rogue warlord down. The Requiem Squadron, under the command of Wedge Antilles' alter ego Antar Roat, managed to infiltrate Krennel's forces and bring down the shields protecting Ciutric. In the aftermath of the liberation of Ciutric and the deaths of Krennel, Isard's clone, and Isard herself, Vessery fled with two complete squadrons of TIE Defenders and their pilots. (IR)

Vestor Pulsar  
this neutron star was located at the heart of the Vestor Nebula, located in the Trans-Nebular Sector of the galaxy. This rapidly-spinning cinder of a star was all the remained of a giant star that went supernova many millennia before the advent of the New Order. It spewed twin spirals of ionized gas outward as it spun, forming the Vestor Nebula. The jets of gas also act as a kind of beacon, and many spacers used its emissions to help navigate the Trans-Nebular Sector. (GSE)
Vesuvague  
a tree which is native to the planet Ithor, the vesuvague has a great root system. The roots grow quickly, and often emerge from the soils a thick vines.

Vewin was captured and interrogated on Kelada, and was subsequently considered a security risk to the Alliance. (SESB)
Vex  
this Defel served as Greezim Trentacal's bodyguard until Trentacal was killed on Gabredor III. Vex was recommended to Trentacal by another contact within the Karazak Slavers Guild, and Trentacal offered Vex the position of bodyguard on the spot. At first, Vex had no interest in the job, having other personal duties to attend to. However, the Defel found himself between a rock and hard place when his own agenda was caught between Trentacal's rivals and the Karazak Guild. Vex decided to join Trentacal and avoid the entanglements, thereby furthering his own goals. Vex proved himself to be a loyal servant, and was given more and more control of Trentacal's daily routine until they were caught on Gabredor III. The slaving transfer station on the planet was infiltrated by the Red Moons, and their leader, Sully Tigereye, personally tore Vex apart in hand-to-hand combat aboard the Atron's Mistress. (SWJ8, TFE)

this man was one of Cularin's minor crimelords, during the last years of the Old Republic. Vex was quite skilled in the arts of interrogation, and could bring any being to the point of collapse and hold them there until they surrendered their information. Of course, he preferred to have his Trandoshan henchmen do the actual dirty work. (LFCW)
Vex Major  
this planet was the primary world in the Vex system, which was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. A swampy world, Vex Major was surrounded by a desnse asteroid field known simply as The Belt. The few human settlers who made a living on the planet were close-knit clans of fisherfolk. The planet itself was often referred to as Far Gent, term used by the Ffib fanatics who settled the planet some forty years before the Battle of Endor. The name "Vex Major" was believed to have been coined by the first explorers who tried to reach the planet, which was located on the edge of the Monsua Nebula. They hoped to use Vex Major as a staging point for excursions into the Unknown Regions, but navigating through the Belt and overcoming the anomalies caused by the Monsua Nebula proved particularly vexing. (GMR9)
Vexa  
this female Tusken Raider was the leader of the small faction which believed Sliven was unfit to lead his tribe, during the years following the Battle of Endor. Vexa was the first to voice her opinions after Sliven returned from the desert with Tahiri Veila, then announced that he would raise the girl as a Tusken Raider. Vexa allowed Tahiri to remain on two conditions: first, that her true parentage be kept secret; and second, that she be forced to pass the trials of adulthood required of any Tusken Raider youth. If Tahiri succeeded, then Sliven's faith in the girl would be proven correct, and both would be allowed to remain with the tribe. If Tahiri failed, however, both would be exiled to the deepest deserts. Sliven agreed, and Tahiri was allowed to grow up with the tribe. When Tahiri returned from her training at the Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4, Vexa greeted her amiably enough, but quickly demanded that the trial begin. Tahiri and her friend, Anakin Solo, were taken into the deepest part of the Jundland Wastes and given seven days to return. Despite Tahiri's successful return to the tribe, Vexa still demanded that Sliven be banished from the tribe. Tahiri intervened on his behalf, and forced Vexa to abide by her original agreement. (P)

V-gauge  
this scale describes the output capacity of a repuslorlift engine's turbothrust converter coil. Most landspeeders use V5- to V9-gauge coils, while X-Wings and military T-47 airspeeders use V12- to V18-gauge coils. Large transport ships require much heavier-gauge coils. (CFG)
VGK-3  
known as the Shooting Star, this was Koensayr's version of a heavy assault starfighter. It was originally developed near the end of the Galactic Civil War, but never saw active production. The prototype of the VGK-3 was stolen by Bryce Agoris and Myrgaanti Shi-iki, who modifed the ship and renamed it the Warhog. The VGK-3 measured nineteen meters in length, and required a pilot and gunner to operate. There was little room on the VGK-3 for any cargo, with all usable space being set aside for power plants and drive systems. It was believed that this craft was armed with five laser cannons, a dual ion cannon, and two proton torpedo launchers. (SWJ6)
V-Haad

Vharing, Jovan  
this Imperial officer served aboard the Interrogator under the command of Captain Nolaan. Vharing was the latest in a long line of males in his family to attend the Imperial Academy, graduating in the top two percent of his class and receiving a posting as a communications officer aboard a Victory-class Star Destroyer. A close friend and trusted advisor, Vharing was a student of Nolaan, who was grooming the young man for his own command. When Nolaan transferred to command of the Interrogator, he brought Vharing along with him. This was both a boon and a bane for Vharing. When Nolaan was executed by High Inquisitor Tremayne for a minor error, Vharing was quickly promoted in his place. At the time, Vharing was the youngest person ever promoted to Captain and command of a ship. Tremayne kept a sharp eye on Vharing, for he had proclaimed that and of Nolaan's advisors would also be executed. Vharing remained in command of the Interrogator until a senior Lieutenant Leeds inadvertently ordered the bombing of a settlement on Qlothos while Vharing slept. The planet was virtually undefended, and sixty civilians were killed in the raid. Among them was a high-ranking engineer from Kuat Drive Yards and his family, who were on vacation at the time. Tremayne executed Vharing for this mistake, despite the fact that he had nothing to do with it. Vharing's disembodied spirit roamed the ship for several minutes before realizing it was truly dead.

Viago  
see Iego (LEV)
Vialco  
this Dark Jedi Knight trained under High Inquisitor Tremayne, and believed himself to be the logical choice to replaced Tremayne upon his death. Vialco stalked his victims from afar, planting horrible dreams in their minds until they were at his mercy. However, Vialco was also arrogant, and believed that anyone who could not touch the Dark Side of the Force was below him. This caused considerable trouble when he was ordered to work for non-Jedi commanders, and led to his being assigned to guard the new Imperial communications bunker near Iscera, on the planet Nysza III. When the Alliance learned of its construction, Commander Beatonn sent Harrier Team to destroy it. Vialco killed Arecelis Acosta and handily defeated Fable Astin during the mission, but the Harriers were able to take out the station. Vialco retreated, knowing that Fable would be an easy target, and was later contacted by Adalric Brandl. Brandl told Vialco that he was holding Fable on Trulalis, and the Dark Jedi could not pass up the tempting offer to remove her. Vialco quickly traveled to Trulalis and confronted Fable, who had become a much more formidable opponent that he believed possible. Fable was able to disarm him and defeat him, but she could not kill him. She did not want to become part of the Dark Side. However, Brandl had other ideas. He sent an image into her mind of Vialco recovering his lightsaber and attacking, and Fable moved to counter the blow. Instead of striking another lightsaber, Fable's blade severed Vialco's head from his shoulders. (SWJ8)

Distinguished by her raven-black hair and black-on-black eyes, Vianna D'Pow was an experienced infiltrator who had no problem gaining access to the Jedi Temple. Once inside, however, Mace Windu was alerted to her presence, and confronted her in the hospital. It was then that Vianna revealed that she was not working for any criminal organization, but had been hired by the Sullustan infant's parents to recover their child. Her mission touched a hidden place in Windu's heart, and he allowed Vianna to return the child to its parents. (T13)
Vibre-class Assault Cruiser  
developed and manufactured by Silvuit Corporation, this 100-meter long craft bristled with weapons. It found widespread usage among Imperial fleets which survived the Battle of Endor, as the remnants of the Empire began raiding New Republic convoys for supplies. Vibre-class cruisers were plated with matte-black armor, with a layer of stealth coating bonded to it. A triangular, scarab-shaped craft, it was armed with four laser cannons, a pair of tractor beam projectors, and four ion cannons. The shape of the ship was dictated by its mission profile. It could latch onto larger capital ships with its tractor beams, and use cutting lasers to open the other ship's hull. A squadron of zero-G spacetroopers was disgorged into the larger ship, which would then take control of it. The ship required a crew of thirty to operate, along with 15 gunners. It could transport up to sixty troops and 500 metric tons of cargo. (JASB, PP, WOTC)
Vibrion, Gebnerret  
this elderly man was the political leader of an active Alliance cell during the last years of the New Order. He suffered greatly from Zithrom's Disease, and constantly took Clondex to ease the pain. In his earlier days, Vibrion was an Old Republic Senator from Ghorman. He later served the Imperial Senate, and quickly sided with Mon Mothma following the Ghorman Massacre. When warrants were issued for her arrest, Vibrion went into hiding and went to work for the Alliance. When he was captured by the Empire and imprisoned on Selnesh, the Alliance sent in a team of agents to either liberate him or execute him before the Empire could learn his secrets. The assault team, led by Lieutenant Haslam, managed to rescue Vibrion while suffering minor injuries. (SWJ10, TFE)
Vibroaxe  
an axe-like weapon that uses a vibrating blade. (CPL, DA)
Vibroaxe Squadron  
this group of space pirates assisted Warlord Zsinj in his attempt to steal the Razor's Kiss. Their leader was a high-strung Devaronian male who was extremely irate at Zsinj and his forces after the attempt, since the Vibroaxes had no idea they'd be assaulting Kuat itself. They had planned on fighting X-Wings and Y-Wings, and they were unable to change tactics quickly enough to avoid over fifty percent losses of hardware and pilots. (IF)

Their rise to power threatened the control of Benthar's Boys, especially after they kidnapped Benthar himself. The Alliance agents on the planet to investigate the construction of the Imperial supply depot in the Bissillirus System assisted Benthar's Boys in rescuing him, and Vibroblades agreed to join the Boys in fighting against the Empire instead of each other. (GMK)
Vibro-crystal  
this speciallized form of kunda stone was developed for use in communications devices by the kadrillian known as Rodno, during the height of the New Order.

a medical instrument with a vibrating blade, a vibroscalpel contained a small power source in its grip. This power source supplied enough energy to rapidly vibrate the blade of the scalpel, allowing it to cut with much less force than a standard medical scalpel. Because of this, a surgeon had to be extremely careful when using a vibroscalpel, because they could inadvertently cause more harm than good. Vibroscalpels were used most often when operating a beings with thick, scaly, or leathery skins, since it allowed a surgeon to cut into the skin qjuickly. Unfortunately for many beings, vibroscalpels eventually found their way onto the black markets of the galaxy, where they became deadly weapons of force and persuasion. (HSR)

Both Vick and his partner, Corporal Raders, were later chosen to serve as Halcyon's personal guards, after the Republic's forces were able to land on Praesitlyn. Upon landing on Praesitlyn, both Vick and Raders signed up for scout duty, preferring the action to sitting around waiting for the battle to start. After returning to base with Odie Subu and Erk H'Arman in tow, Vick and Raders were then allowed to sit in the command center with Halcyon and his leaders, Anakin Skywalker and Zozridor Slayke, to devise a new plan to defeat the Separatists.

Victory Rationing Orders and Regulation Plan  
this Old Republic regulation was put in place during the early stages of the Clone Wars, hoping to ensure that vital war materiel and foodstuffs would be available for the Republic's armed forces. It also was established to help control the inflation which threatened to devalue the Republic Credit. Among the things which were controlled by the VRORP was starship fuel, limiting the amount of fuel that was available for civilian use.

Victory-I class Star Destroyer  
a medium-duty capital ship, the Victory-class was the precursor to the Imperial class. It was designed by Walex Blissex and was commissioned into service near the end of the Clone Wars. It was manufactured by Rendili StarDrive, and was built to serve three purposes: planetary defense, planetary assault and ground troop support, and ship-to-ship combat. It can run at speeds up to .45 past lightspeed. The Victory-class measured 900 meters in length, and was manned by 4,798 crewers and 402 gunners.

He was a confederate of Lando Calrissian, and agreed to help Lando and Luke Skywalker gather information on Prince Xizor's palace. They haggled on a price, which Luke paid, but they also demanded that Vidkum accompany them to the palace, as a form of insurance. Vidkum's paranoia got the best of him, and he believed that Luke and Lando would kill him as soon as they got to the palace. He pulled a blaster on them, and threatened to kill them both. A short firefight resulted in the death of Benedict Vidkum, although his information was instrumental in gaining access to the palace. (SE)

Vien'sai'malloc  
this Devaronian female served her homeworld as a Senator to the Old Republic, along with Senator Elsah'sai'moro, during the height of the Clone Wars. During the years leading up to the Clone Wars, Senator Vien'sai'malloc was known as one of the few incorruptible members of the Galactic Senate. Unknown to most beings, however, the Senator was not what she seemed. Unlike Senator Elsah'sai'moro, Vien'sai'malloc had allied herself with the Separatists. It was her work that allowed the Separatists to establish a hidden military on Devaron, from which Separatist forces launched ambush raids against Republic supply convoys. After Elsah'sai'moro discovered her true nature, Vien'sai'malloc hired Aurra Sing to eliminate her. She retained the bounty hunter's services in order to protect herself from a reprisal from the Jedi Knights. However, when three Jedi - Masters Tholme and the Dark Lady, along with Aayla Secura - had infiltrated her estate, she tried to stop Aurra Sing from killing them. When Aurra Sing refused, the Senator tried to atone for her treachery by revealing the true location of the base to Aayla Secura, who was unable to relay the information before Aurra Sing could strike. In the end, Senator Vien'sai'malloc was imprisoned for her part in the Separatist attacks, but the Republic allowed her to be tried on Devaron when President Aven'sai'ulrahk demanded it. The Senator was executed for her crimes against her people. (J3)
Viento  
this man was one of the many Senators who served the Old Republic during the height of the Clone Wars. Viento was distinguished by his well-groomed appearance, including eyebrows that curved upward into points at his temples, and a beard that was little more than a black stripe down his chin. His skin was quite pale, but was always flawless with make-up. Unknown to many, Senator Viento was under the protection of Jedi Master K'kruhk. This proved a minor deterent to Quinlan Vos, who traveled to Coruscant to assassinate Viento in order to solidify his position with Count Dooku. Dooku had become tired of Viento's schemes, especially when he discovered that Viento had been using his association with Dooku to further his own ends. Quin, for his own part, believed that Viento was the mysterious second Sith who had appeared after the Battle of Geonosis. Jedi Master K'kruhk and the former Jedi struggled briefly, but Quinlan was able to kill Viento before K'kruhk could stop him. An investigation into Viento's death revealed that the Senator had been behind several plots to sabotage the starships of other Senators who were loyal to the Republic and the Jedi Knights, pinning him as a supporter of the Separatists.

Vigil, The  
this was the name given to the ceremony formed by the A'Mar of the moon of Lamus, in which they remembered their first encounter with the Wellspring and the thirty-year occurance of the sunless day. The original A'Mar discovered the Wellspring on the eve of the sunless day, but were afraid to drink from it. When the sun failed to rise the next morning, their apprehension only grew. At the same time, so did their thirst. After watching the coronal ring of fire move across the sky was the moon and planet matched orbits, the A'Mar finally gave into their thirst and drank from the spring. They were immediately revitalized, and the next morning saw the sun rise again. The A'Mar were not supersititious, and understood something of the celestial mechanics behind the sunless day. However, they never forgot their initial fear, and established The Vigil to ensure that the waters of the Wellspring would continue to flow. Once every thirty years during The Vigil, one A'Mar who had never drunk from the Wellspring was required to spend a day and a night at the Wellspring without taking a single drink. When the coronal ring of fire passed across the sky and set, the A'Mar could then drink from the Wellspring, thereby ensuring that the sun would rise again. During the Galactic Civil War, the sunless day occurred at a time when only one A'Mar child had never taken a drink from the Wellspring. (WOA31)

the captain of this modified Corellian Engineering Corporation gunship claimed that he was part of a small task force assembled by Leia Organa Solo to ensure that the Wanderhome reached Ralltiir intact. However, the Vigor and its companion, the Blunt Force, were actually Peace Brigade ships that had intercepted the distress call of the Wanderhome and hoped to bring its load of refugees to the Yuuzhan Vong. The pilots who were escorting the Wanderhome managed to drive off the Peace Brigade ships, allowing the Wanderhome to reach Ralltiir safely. The Vigor was modified to be operated by a crew of ten, and could accommodate up to four prisoners and 450 metric tons of cargo.

Four years after the onset of the invasion, Viith Yalu and his team succeeded in breaking the biochemical sequencing of bacta, and developed a virus which could destroy the alazhi plants that were vital to the fluid's production. Viith Yalu planned to bring the virus to Thyferrs inside the person of Bey Gandan, after having twisted the former Jedi Knight to the ways of the Yuuzhan Vong. The virus was implanted in his body, and was to be expelled from his pores upon reaching Thyferra. The plan nearly succeeded, as Bey was able to release a small portion of the virus before he was killed. However, the Vratix had been alerted the the threat, and burned the infected alazhi fields before the virus could spread. (SWI64)

Vila  
this young woman was the only surviving child of the King of Naldar, after her homeworld was destroyed by Imperial forces in the wake of the Battle of Endor. She was the twin sibling of Prince Denin, who died about two years before the Battle of Endor. From that point forward, Vila adopted the alias of Denin, in the hopes of retaking Naldar. She took a starship and fled Naldar, barely making it to the Forest Moon of Endor. There, she posed as Denin in hopes of enlisting the aid of the Alliance in freeing Naldar. She also hoped to be trained as a Jedi Knight by Luke Skywalker. However, her pleas for help fell on the deaf ears of Leia Organa, who couldn't understand why Denin would linger on Endor when his people were dying. Although the Alliance couldn't spare a fighter squadron, a small task force was sent to accompany Vila back to Naldar. It was on Naldar that Leia discovered the truth about Denin's death, and Vila was forced to explain herself. Shortly afterward, when it was discovered that Flint was behind the subjugation of Naldar, Vila jumped in front of a blaster bolt meant to kill Flint. She wanted the fighting stopped, after Flint agreed to free Naldar. Vila died from her injuries, but it was rumored that she was reunited with Denin when she became part of the Force. (MC92)

Vilia, Klorr  
this noted botantist worked to discover an herb that appealed to a wide range of species and tastes. He created the herb savorium, and invited his friend Zorneth sample the first taste. Zorneth declined, since Vilia had used it on meat. Vilia took the first taste himself, and was affected by the herb. He became the first of the Smilers, and was known as Smiley to Zorneth and his subordinates. Zorneth cared for him for the next five years, all the while realizing that the secret of savorium must be maintained. Vilia died on Zorneth's starship when it was attacked by Dictator-Forever Craw's forces. Zorneth had ordered that the savorium groves on it be destroyed rather than captured, and the droid PDA6 followed those orders to the letter. Vilia was caught in the explosion. (DRO)

Village of Aurilia  
this settlement was founded by a group of Force-sensitive refugees who were abandoned on Dathomir by the Empire, during the early years of the New Order. Originally established by Rohak and his aides, Noldan and Paemos, the Village of Aurilia was settled by beings who had been arrested by Emperor Palpatine's agents because they were considered "dangerous" to the Empire because of their abilities. Although the Village of Aurilia enjoyed several decades of peace because of its remote location, it was eventually discovered by the Nightsisters, who launched several waves of attacks against it. The largely pacifist population of the Village fought back, eventually repelling the attack and rebuilding the settlement. It was because of these attacks that Rohak and Marite agreed that the Village would open its arms to offworlders who wanted to learn about the Force, a decision that took many months to come to fruition. Those individuals who completed their training at the Village were considered the equivalent of a Padawan. Although the Village of Aurilia enjoyed several decades of peace because of its remote location, it was eventually discovered by the Nightsisters, who launched several waves of attacks against it. The largely pacifist population of the Village fought back, eventually repelling the attack and rebuilding the settlement. (SWGAL)
Villid  
this speciallized form of villip - distinguished by its flattened, gelatinous form - was used in groups to create a light shaper. (UFCD)
Villip  
one of the many bio-engineered technologies of the Yuuzhan Vong, villips were created in pairs, and resembled a lumps of formless flesh. They were cultivated in wide, marshy paddies, and each pair grew like a couple of berries on a single stalk. The plant itself was recognizable by its three blue leaves, which surrounded the central stalk. When activated by touching the ridge of flesh known as the eversion stoma, the villip seemed to pucker open, revealing an eye-like socket. This socket then opened a communications channel to its companion villip, allowing two parties to speak across vast distances. Each villip was a sentient piece of technology which was "tuned" to communicate with the other villip which grew from the same stalk, and the Yuuzhan Vong often had many villips in their possession, depending on how many others they were in contact with. The connection between villips was rooted in their consciousness, and was formed by opening tiny hyperspace portals between pairs. Once contact was made and a connection established, each villip would turn itself inside-out, forming itself into the image of its owner, thereby giving the impression of talking directly to an individual who may have been halfway across the galaxy. Larger villips known as master villips were capable of budding many smaller villips, allowing it to communicate with multiple subordinate villips at once. These groupings were reserved for use by military commanders, and communication was only allowed from the master villip to all subordinates. A speciallized form of villip was also used to record visual information for later playback. Known as tactical villips, these villips were more independent than other forms. After the hostilities between the Yuuzhan Vong and the Galactic Alliance were resolved, and the Yuuzhan Vong were allowed to live on the planet Zonama Sekot, they found that villips and many other bio-engineered devices simply reverted to their natural forms. This was one way in which Sekot forced the Yuuzhan Vong to give up their lust for war and embrace a more enlightened existence. (VP, DTO, EL1, SWRPG2, UF, UFCD, NEGW)
Villip Beacon  
this was a form of villip, bioengineered by the Yuuzhan Vong to send a signal back to a companion villip or villip choir. What made the villip beacon different from a standard villip was that it was easily concealed, and did not form itself into the guise of its companion's user. Rather, it simply recorded what it observed and transmitted it to its companion. Villip beacons were often used for covert surveillance, with an agent carrying one hidden in their robes in order to transmit images and sounds from an enemy location. (FH3)
Villip Choir  
see Villipichoir Field (HT)
Villip-choir Field  
this form of holographic projection was created by speciallized villips, which were bioengineered by the Yuuzahn Vong. Two or more villips were required to create the field, which could reproduce a three-dimensional view of what the villips were seeing. In this way, the Yuuzhan Vong could observe remote events in vivid clarity. There were essentially two forms of villip choir, depending on how the choir received its information. The simpler form acted on the signal of a remote villip, sometimes called a villip beacon, and simply relayed the information it received in in full color, but only in two dimensions. The more sophisticated form, known as a light shaper, used speciallized villips - known as villids - to produce a bioluminescent form of hologram. (HT, UFCD)
Villius, Justar  
this man was the speaker of the House of Citizens, on the planet Corulag, during the Clone Wars. He was believed to have been killed during a Separatist attack on Curamelle, when the Legislative Hall was badly damaged. Rescuers eventually located Villius and pulled him to safety. (WOTC, GCG)
Vilmarh Grahrk  
this harsh, hulking Devaronian worked as a mercenary during the last decades of the Old Republic. He flew the galaxy in his personal starship, the Inferno, and was assisted by the droid NT. After helping Naradan D'ulin rescue the princess Foolookoola from the planet Ootoola, Villie was hired by Darth Sidious to stir up the Yinchorri people into aggressive acts against their neighbors. Sidious hoped to draw the Jedi Knights into a trap in the Yinchorri System, provided that Vilmarh Grahrk did his job. His cousin, another hulking Devaronian with a broken left horn, was captured by Adi Gallia on Yitheeth, while trying to lead a group of Yinchorri warriors against the Jedi. After the Jedi managed to destroy the Yinchorri command center on Uhanayih, Vilmarh and his cronies fled the system in fear of being captured. They were branded criminals and hunted down by the Old Republic. His actions, however, forced the Jedi Knights to consdier that a stronger power was behind the Yinchorri uprisings. Many months later, Villie first encountered Quinlan Vos on Nar Shaddaa, after the Jedi Knight had been stripped of his memory. Villie had bet the Inferno as collateral in several wagers, but lost them all. He then "rescued" Quinlan, in order to obtain the prize money offered by the criminal underworld to the being who could most accurately predict how long a Jedi whose memory had been erased could survive on the moon. With this money, he hoped to buy back the Inferno. Quinlan rmanaged to avoid being killed, and force the Devaronian to explain what was going on. The two fled Nar Shaddaa after confronting Bib Fortuna about Quinlan's loss of memory, and traveled to Ryloth to discover the whereabouts of Aayla Secura. After learning of Chom Frey Kaa's part in the development of glitteryll, Villie agreed to take Quinlan to Coruscant. He contacted the Twi'lek Senator, claiming to be bringing Quinlan in for the bounty on his head. Villie, however, had decided that the Jedi was his friend, and used the meeting to lure Chom Frey Kaa into a trap set by Mace Windu. Villie became something of a friend to Quinlan, and helped the Jedi during his mission to Kiffu. It was rumored that Villie survived the tumult of the Clone Wars, and eventually ended up on Tatooine as a front-man for Jabba the Hutt. In his old age, Villie was no less a conman and swindler than when he was young, and often played both sides against each other to figure out which one paid better. (T3, AOW, OWS, SWT, DRKN, IESB)

Vima-Da-Boda  
a descendant of Nomi and Vima Sunrider (six generations removed from Nomi Sunrider), Vima was a great warrior for over a century before she began teaching her daughter, Neema, about the Force. Neema, however, grew tired of her mother's slow style, and attempted to teach herself. She became seduced by the Dark Side of the Force, and was utterly consumed by it. Neema became the mistress, and later the wife, of an Ottethan warlord, who eventually grew tired of her and cast her out into the rancor-filled forests of his homeworld. Vima heard Neema's telepathic plea for help, and set out at once to find her. Vima arrived too late to save her daughter, and sliced the warlord in half with her lightsaber. She succumbed to the Dark Side of the Force, and was stripped of her ability to sense and use the Force. Thus, she escaped the Jedi Purge which Emperor Palpatine initiated. Vima got into trouble, and was sent to the spice mines of Kessel, where she discovered Kyp Durron. She taught him what she could of the Force before she was taken away. Vima was discovered a number of years later by Han Solo and Princess Leia on Nar Shaddaa (or Nal Hutta, as described in Jedi Search). There, she gave Princess Leia a 10,000 year old lightsaber that was found around 800 PE on Ossus. Han and Leia returned to remove her from spaceport and move her to Coruscant, following the death of the reborn Emperor Palpatine on Byss. She helped Leia learn about the ways of the Jedi, just in time to help Leia shield her newborn son, Anakin, from the reborn Emperor. Following the death of the Emperor and Empatojayos Brand, Vima accompanied Leia back to Onderon, but during the victory celebration she mysteriously disappeared. It is not known if she had since died, or simply returned to Nar Shaddaa. (DE1, JS, DE2, EE)

Vinna  
this species of tree was native to the planet Tenek. It was unusual in that its bark was composed almost entirely of metal, which made the trees excellent conductors of lightning-borne electricity. These trees were discovered by Doctor Safford Raen to be the primary food sources for the raen sovra. The worms lived in the ground, twining through the roots of the vinna and waiting for thunderstorms. When lightning struck a vinna tree, the metallic bark conducted electricity into the ground, where it was consumed by the sovra worms. This sudden burst of electricity stimulated that worms, which burrowed through the ground and helped aerate the soil below the trees. (COG)

Viper Probe Droid  
an Arakyd probe droid used by the Empire, the Viper was a squat, spherical droid which moved about on a small repulsor engine and had six segmented arms. Manufactured to specifications detailed by Darth Vader, they were armed with a light blaster cannon and a self-destruct mechanism. They were also equipped with a variety of sensor systems and recording devices. Although Arakyd indicated that the Viper was built to Imperial specifications, much of its design was actually based on the work of Viper Sensor Intelligence Systems, a small corporation absorbed by Arakyd during the Clone Wars. The first wave of Viper probots to come into Imperial service were produced on Mechis III, at the time when IG-88 controlled the planet. The assassin droid added secondary programming to these droids, mandating that the droids also report back to IG-88 on Mechis III if they found any weakness or flaw which the assassin droid could exploit in its quest for galactic dominance. In essence, IG-88 hoped to use the Viper probe droids as the advanced scouts in the droid revolution. The Viper was extremely sensitive to external stimuli, and were known to turn themselves on during transport if jostled too much. They were delivered to a specific destination by a hyperspace jump pod, which was specially designed to carry the droid without damaging it. (ESB, DFR, DFRSB, TBH, FTD, NEGW)
Viper Sensor Intelligence Systems  
this corporation, based on the planet Vulpter, was accused by Arakyd Industries of stealing Arakyd's probe droid designs for the development of the XPLR-R exploration droid. When VSIS refused to back down from any confession of wrong-doing, Arakyd sent an assault force of sixty AAD-4 combat droids to Vulpter to smash VSIS' corporate headquarters. The sixty droids encountered little resistance from VSIS, which was absorbed into Arakyd's conglomerate. The facilities on Vulpter were turned into an Arakyd research and development lab, which was overseen by a garrison of Arakyd combat droids. (HNN5)
Viper Tower  
this building was the corporate headquarters of Viper Sensor Intelligence Systems, located in the city of Hpaq on the planet Vulpter. (HNN5)
Viper Wasp  
native to Yavin 4, this vicious insect made its home inside the thick, hollow vines that grew in the densest parts of the jungle. The sting of a viper wasp delivered a potent venom that caused cramps, diarrhea, yellowing of the eyes, numbness in the hands and feet, pustules on the mucous membranes, and hormonal disruption. (SWED)
Vippit  
this alien race was a member of the Old Republic, during the height of the Clone Wars. Many Vippit were native to the planet Nal Hutta, a world that appealed to their unique physiology. The average Vippit was distinguished by a wide, turquoise-colored shell that protected their soft body. The Vippit moved about on a single, many-toed foot that left behind a trail of yellowish mucus. The mouth and voicebox of a Vippit was capable of speaking in the Basic language, while the two eyes used for seeing were located atop individual stalks. Vippits were known for their ability to actively think with both sides of their brains, and were capable of using each half to monitor and understand two distinct spheres of attention. Reintegration of knowledge and memories occurred during normal sleep cycles, allowing a Vippit to acquire knowledge almost twice as fast as most other races. The shell of a Vippit was a source of personal pride and communal acceptance, and the polishing of shells was one of the most basic forms of contact in their society. An individual Vippit could go without food and sleep for many days, a trait which mande them one of the hardest-working races of the Old Republic. (HIV, TCD)
Viptiel  
this unique plant, native to the planet Nal Hutta, was used by the Vippit race as a medicinal supplement, especially during their mating period. It was also a powerful conunter-agent to the intense hormonal surges that acompanied the sexual phase changes experienced by the X'Ting race, although very few could afford it. (TCD)

Virago  
Prince Xizor's personal starship, the Virago was a custom-built MandalMotors StarViper. Xizor's extravagant tastes demanded a ship that was anything but ordinary, and he contracted MandalMotors to build it. The result of their collaboration was the StarViper-class attack platform, a heavy assault fighter of incredible speed, armoring, weaponry, and price. The nine-meter-long Virago was unique in the galaxy, although MandalMotors developed other designs from it that were less powerful. This ship was propeled by a Quadex IGt converter system, which was supported by four wing-mounted Koensayr N2-F microthruster engines capable of moving the ship at speeds approaching 800 kilometers per hour in atmosphere. It was armed with a pair of Ht-12 double laser cannons and a pair of proton torpedo launchers. (SE, EGV, SWDB, NEGV)

It was rumored that he had bribed an Imperial official to get the power he held, but that was never proven. He was a rival of Tomaas and Antan Azzameen, whose Twin Suns Transport Services tried to maintain a healthy business in Viraxo's sector. He was killed shortly after Ace Azzameen joined the Alliance, in a skirmish between Azzameen and Viraxo forces. (XWA)

He was a strong supporter of the Bothans, and had been since he was the third officer on a Corellian Corvette scout ship that picked up the surviving members of the group which stolen the plans to the second Death Star. Later, as a Captain in the New Republic, he was in charge of the mission that intercepted the Leia Organa Solo's team sent to recover the Katana Fleet. After Borsk Fey'lya admitted that he was only trying to obtain the Katana Fleet for political gain, and that stranding the rest of Rogue Squadron was a necessity that loyalty couldn't overcome, Virgilio was forced to re-examine his own loyalty to Fey'lya. As Fey'lya was publically explained that he considered Rogue Squadron his enemies, Virgilio decided that he had heard enough. He placed Fey'lya under house guard until the Katana was secured. After fey'lya was implicated in a plot to frame Admiral Ackbar, Virgilio remained a strong supporter of the New Republic, even though his faith in the Bothans changed. (DFR, DFRSB)
Virgillia 7  
this was one of the many colony worlds maintained by the Virgillians, until the onset of the Virgillian Civil War. (TBSB)
Virgillian Aristocracy  
this was the primary governmental body of the Virgillian Systems, during the last decades of the Old Republic. The Aristocracy held tyrannical control over the various star systems, and their control was eventually opposed by the Virgillian Free Alignment just before the Clone Wars began. The Aristocracy fought mightily against the Alignment, and managed to receive backing from the Empire during the height of the New Order. However, the forces of the Alignment eventually allied themselves with the Alliance, and the Virgillian Civil War began in earnest. The seven-year conflict was ultimately won by the Virgillian Free Alignment, which overthrew the Aristocracy and took democratic control of the Virgillian systems just before the Battle of Endor. (HNN4)
Virgillian Civil War  
this battle occurred just before the Battle of Endor, and was the culmination of a decades-old conflict between the Virgillian Aristocracy and the Virgillian Free Alignment. The origins of the Civil War can be traced to the years before the Clone Wars, when a team of Jedi Knights was believed to have been killed while trying to negotiate a settlement between the Aristocracy and the Alignment. During the era of the New Order, the forces of the Aristocracy had the backing and support of the Empire, which had begun to impose tight controls in the Virgillian System. Underground freedom fighters began to organize themselves around the Free Alignment, and eventually received aid from the Alliance. In a struggle which lasted nearly seven years, the Alignment managed to overthrow the tyrannical government, shortly before the Battle of Endor. The Virgillian Free Alignment and its newly-formed government decided to send twenty-two of its best ships to Sullust, to augment the Alliance's fleet as it readied for battle. (TB, TBSB, HNN4)
Virgillian Free Alignment  
this was the name of one of two factions which vied for control of the government of the Virgillian planets shortly before the onset of the Clone Wars. The Alignment sought to win its freedom from the Virgillian Aristocracy, and the struggle for control was deemed so powerful that the Jedi Knights were asked to dispatch a team to mediate the dispute. Their struggle led to the full-scale conflict known as the Virgillian Civil War. As the civil war took its toll on the Virgillian people, it was the Alignment which finally defeated the Aristocracy. The Alignment, shortly after its victory near the height of the New Order, allied itself with the Alliance and sent a small fleet to assist in the Battle of Endor. (TBSB, HNN4)

Years later, Virujanis was nearly taken over by the Empire, but a group of Alliance soldiers impersonated the government's leaders and infiltrated the Captivity prison moon. The planet was ruled by the Rajah, who was assisted by a number of other political contemporaries: the People's Advisor, who translated visitors' requests to the Rajah; the Mouth of the Ancestors, who uses past Rajahs' actions as pertinent precedents when necessary; the Eye of History, who provided options that could be used to solve difficulties; the Wrathor, who described the Rajah's displeasure when appropriate, using insults and barbs; and the Concilliator, who helped all parties come to agreement.

Virulence  
an Imperial-II class Star Destroyer commanded by Joak Drysso at the Battle of Endor, the Virulence was one of the few Imperial ships to survive the outcome of that battle. Drysso, after witnessing the destruction of the Executor, fled Endor and vowed to exact revenge on the Alliance. He found a receptive audience in Ysanne Isard, who made him one of her primary commanders. She brought the Virulence with her to help protect her interests on Thyferra, and promoted Drysso to commander of the Lusankya. Lakwii Varrscha was promoted from Executive officer to command the Virulence. Isard ordered both Drysso and Varrscha to destroy Rogue Squadron's space station in the Yag'Dhul system, but Booster Terrik had laid a trap for them. He nearly destroyed the Lusankya, but Varrscha interposed the Virulence between the space station and the larger ship. The Lusankya fled Yag'Dhul, believing the Virulence to be destroyed. However, it was captured by Terrik and held at Yag'Dhul until the Battle of Thyferra, at which time Booster enlisted the aid of Ace Squadron and helped defeat the Lusankya. Booster then claimed ownership of the Star Destroyer, and only the shrewd bargaining of Talon Kaarde and the timely announcement of his daughter's engagement to Corran Horn allowed him to actually keep it. Stripped of all but minimal weaponry and defenses, Booster renamed the ship the Errand Venture and used it as a sort of travelling source of parts and information for smugglers and other pilots.

She rose to power as a Sith devotee, during the years following the Great Sith War. She reappeared on the Ebon Hawk shortly after the Jedi Civil War, and challenged The Exile to a duel. Although he was unarmed, The Exile managed to deactivate her lightsaber and forced her to back down. Visas Marr pleaded for death, but The Exile wouldn't allow it. He then asked her about her Master, hoping to learn more about Darth Sion and the Sith forces he was trying to eliminate. Visas eventually came to trust The Exile, and accompanied him on the mission to rebuild the Jedi Order. When they encountered Darth Nihilus on the Ravager at Telos, Visas tried to give her life to save The Exile, but Darth Nihilus was only interested in The Exile. In the ensuing battle, the combined strength of The Exile and Visas Marr was enough to defeat Darth Nihilus and kill him. For her part in restoring the Jedi Order, Visas Marr was allowed into the Jedi Order, and eventually trained to become a Jedi Knight. (KOTOR2, LAWS)

After eliminating most of the Mandalorians on Concord Dawn, Vizsla and his cronies set up a base on Moonus Mandel. He never forgot the Mandalorians, and worked behind the scenes to set up an ambush for them on Korda 6. His plan worked nearly to perfection, as the troops of Jaster Mereel and Jango Fett were decimated in surprise attacks during the era known as the Mandalorian Civil War. Vizsla was able to exact a measure of revenge when he shot and killed Jaster Mereel, who had been abandoned by Montross on the battlefield. Vizsla and the Death Watch then fled Korda 6 to celebrate their victory. He knew, however, that some Mandalorians had survived, and later coerced the planetary governor of Galidraan to help lay a final trap for them.

Vjun  
this planet was located in a remote sector of the galaxy, and was known to the Jedi Order to be a nexus of Dark Side energy. The planet was distinguished by its desolate environment, which was dominated by acid rains and muddy rocks. The human population of Vjun eked out a meager living, with a collection of influential families holding large portions of the usable landmass. What was unusual was that the population of Vjun had a much higher midi-chlorian count, on average, than most other human populations in the galaxy. The ruling families made it their business to understand their counts, and a higher midi-chlorian count was considered a sign of power and prestige. Buildings on Vjun had to be built of heavy stone and dense alloys, but even these materials eventually were eaten away by the acid rains. Some eight years before the onset of the Clone Wars, the planet was swept by a plague of madness that wiped out a huge percentage of the population in just a year. The survivors struggled to exist without many of the necessities, and Vjun was virtually forgotten. It was only later that it was learned that the plague came about as the result of genetic tampering done by the Viscount Malreaux and a group of elitist nobles, who had tried to manipulate the number of midi-chlorians in their cells to achieve more strength and power. It was on this planet, years later, that Darth Vader established a private retreat during the height of the New Order. He built Bast Castle there, and kept Obi-Wan Kenobi's lightsaber in a protected alcove hidden inside. The lightsaber was later recovered by Anakin Solo and Tahiri Veila, along with Tionne, Master Ikrit, and Uldir Lochett. The planet itself was little more than a cloud-shrouded gray ball from orbit, an appearance that changed little when one landed on its surface. The ground was rocky, with very little vegetation. The skies were continually swept by storms, and the average temperature was kept low due to the dense cloud cover. (DE2, ECH, VF, YDR)

Of the three - which included the Klatooinans and Nikto - the Vodrans have proved to be the most loyal to the Hutts. Vodrans are warm-blooded reptiles whose faces are studded with short spikes around the eyes and mouth. The Vodran race evolved the only true intelligence on their homeworld, descending from a species of tree-dwelling reptiles that lived in the trees. They learned how to hunt in packs, and developed a primitive hunting culture when they were discovered by the ancient Hutt Dojundo. The Vodrans signed up with Dojundo, believing that he was leading a sort of holy war against the evil Xim, and were oblivious to the machinations of the Hutts to control their star system. The Vodran strongly resisted the Imperial presence on their planet, and were summarily destroyed by the Empire. A handful of the planet's original population remained, and its pro-Alliance stance grew over time. They never lost sight of their loyalty to the Hutts, however. (MTS, SWJ6, GG12)

this Anzati Dark Jedi haunted Quinlan Vos' past. At one time, many decades before the Battle of Naboo, he was a student of the Force at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, despite the Jedi Council's underlying apprehension at training an Anzat. Volfe Karkko was arrogant, believing that he could overcome his species' innate desire to consume the "soup" of another being's brain. In his arrogance, Volfe Karkko told himself that tasting the soup just once would not affect him, but instead it made Karkko desire to feed quite often. He even fed on other Jedi, gathering a measure of their strength in the Force, and eventually used his control of the Force to trap and consume other beings. When he turned to the Dark Side of the Force, the Jedi Council was forced to trap him in a stasis field on the prison world of Kiffex, where he languished for many years. The Jedi placed his lightsaber in a smaller stasis field, as a warning to other Jedi about what he had become. However, the Dark Side energy that surrounded him twisted the local population of Anzati, turning them into feral beings who survived simply to do his bidding. Volfe Karkko managed to attract the attention of Aayla Secura, who traveled to Kiffex to kill her former master, Quinlan Vos. She released Volfe Karkko from his stasis, allowing him to obtain complete control of the feral Anzati. Volfe Karkko took her as his Queen, and groomed her to become an extension of his Dark Side powers. However, Vos returned to Kiffex with the Jedi Knights, and defeated Karkko in combat. Quinlan nearly succumbed to the Dark Side, but the combined contact of Masters T'ra Saa, Tholme, Zao, Mace Windu, Adi Gallia, and Plo Koon gave him the strength to resist the temptation of the Dark Side.

The Alain themselves were known for their survival skills, which were required to maintain their society in the face of near-perpetual winters. However, as the Alain became more technologically advanced, they found that the pollution and toxic waste of their factories was destroying the planet. Rather than adapt their factories to produce less waste, the Alain decided to adapt to the changing climate instead. As a result, Von-Alai's environment quickly became over-polluted. The natural plantlife died out, and the white snows were replaced by gray rain that was tainted by chemical toxins. (LOJ)

Vondar, Jos  
this Corellian man was a surgeon who served the Grand Army of the Republic during the height of the Clone Wars. He had hoped to make a name for himself by working on a planet at the forefront of the fighting, but found himself stationed at the Rimsoo Seven military hospital on Drongar instead. Raised in a small farming town, Jos was the son of a family doctor who earned a decent living keeping the community healthy. His family was strictly Ensterite, formed from the Vondar and Kerso clans. The healing arts were in his blood, as many of his aunts and uncles were also doctors or surgeons. Jos left home at twenty to train on the planet Coruscant, but never forgot his roots, and remained loyal to the beliefs of his family and neighbors. By the time he was stationed on Drongar, Vondar had attained the rank of Captain, and was named Chief Surgeon in charge of the rest of the medical corps at Rimsoo Seven, reporting to Colonel D'Arc Vaetes. He was considered pragmatic by his peers, believing in only those things he could see and touch. For this reason, Jos didn't have any belief in the existence of the Force until he met Barriss Offee, who was stationed at Rimsoo Seven some two years after the Battle of Geonosis. He managed to remain relatively sane on Drongar by using sarcasm and wisecracks to hide his true feelings, although he often found refuge in the music of his roommate, Zan Yant. Many of his innate beliefs were challenged during his tenure at Rimsoo Seven, including the theory that droids and clone troopers were essentially the same thing: drones that were identical, and created to serve the needs of higher species. His contacts with trooper CT-914 and the droid I-5YQ shook him up, as both individuals were just as "human" as he was. Additionally, he found himself physically and emotionally attracted to Tolk le Trene, even though he knew any relationship they could have would go against his Ensterite background. With his emotions and beliefs in turmoil, Jos was unprepared for a Separatist attack on Rimsoo Seven itself. CT-914 died in a preliminary skirmish, and Zan Yant was killed during their evacuation. He refused to grieve, feeling that holding onto the pain allowed him to remember how alive his friends were. Once Rimsoo Seven was relocated, however, he allowed himself to admit that Tolk's proposal of a non-committal relationship was a worthy compromise. Before he knew it, however, he had fallen in love with her. He also found a new friendship with his new bunkmate, the youthful Kornell Divini. As fate would have it, Jos' exiled uncle, Erel Kersos, was appointed to replace Tarnese Bleyd, and Kersos tried to explain his loneliness to Jos. Although Uncle Erel had married an ekster woman, she had died shortly afterward, and he was left without any kind of family. Jos, however, understood what his love for Tolk would meet, and decided to marry her. It was at this time that Uncle Erel had a series of meetings with Tolk, and nearly talked her out of any formal relationship with Jos. Tolk put some distance between them, and Jos fell into a deep depression. He even considered suicide, but eventually worked up the nerve to tell Tolk exactly how he felt. She had been waiting to have him demonstrate his love, and gladly accepted it when he offered. As this was going on, Jos also learned from Barris Offee that the traitor in their midst was actually Klo Merit. Jos immediately blamed Merit for the death of Zan Yant, and confronted the Equani. Merit admitted his role, and tried to flee. Jos fired his blaster at the Equani, killing him instantly. Although he regretted the taking of a life, Jos realized that he had eliminated a threat to the Republic. (MBS, MJH)

Vonduun Crab  
this crustacean was native to the homeworld of the Yuuzhan Vong, where it was the only known predator of the amphistaff. This was due to the fact that the vonduun crab's shell was the only known substance that could repel an amphistaff's teeth as well as it narrowed blade form. Because of this, armor-like shell was bio-engineered to exist away from the crab's body, where it could be used by the warriors to make living, protective armor known as skerr kyrric. The armor was essentially a bioengineered crab, complete with gripping legs that held the armor to the warrior's body in several places. The armored shell was composed of an intricately structured crystalline lattice, and was reinforced by and energy field created by power glands not unlike those of the amphistaff. By chance, Corran Horn discovered that the vonduun crab was allergic to the pollen of the bafforr tree. The crab armor would swell up in reaction to the pollen, quickly suffocating the warrior wearing it. The Yuuzhan Vong soon discovered this, and wiped out the planet Ithor in hopes of eliminating the threat. However, the shell armor could also be pierced at a depression beneath the armpit of the wearer. A strike to this point by blaster bolt of lightsaber could kill both the armor and the warrior wearing it. (VP, DTR, T, UFCD, NEGW)
Vong  
this was a term used by the various beings of the New Republic to briefly describe the Yuuzhan Vong species. However, among the Yuuzhan Vong themselves, the term "Vong" meant that the person being addressed did not have the favor or kinship of his family or the gods. (EVC)
Vongforming  
this was the term used by New Republic scientists to describe the way in which Coruscant - and other worlds - were quickly reformed into worlds the Yuuzhan Vong could inhabit. Many worlds in the galaxy were simply replanted with Yuuzhan Vong flora, which took months to eventually claim the planet's surface. Planets such as Coruscant were seeded with exploding fungus and other rapid-growing organisms, reducing the urban world to rubble in a matter of weeks. Scientists and xenobiologists with the New Republic later discovered that the Yuuzhan Vong were not that different from most life in the galaxy, at least genetically. The primary exception was that all Vongformed life, including plants, animals, and the Yuuzhan Vong themselves, contained a unique strand of genetic material that set them apart from all other species. This difference was key to the development of the Alpha Red virus. (EL2, DW)
Vonglife  
this was the New Republic's term for the unusual forms of plant and animal life which were used by the Yuuzhan Vong to reform a planet to their own designs. (T)
Vongsense  
this was the term used by Jacen Solo to describe his connection to the Yuuzhan Vong. It was not the Force, but rather another sensation of merging with the extra-galactic species and their bio-creations. Jacen found that he couldn't use his Vongsense while employing the Force, requiring him to use one sense or the other in battle. However, after Tahiri Veila managed to reconcile her mind with Riina Kwaad, she discovered that she had a very enhanced form of Vongsense. It was different from Jacen's in that it sprang from the part of her mind which was Riina, and Tahiri could use it almost all the time. Like Jacen's howeer, Tahiri's Vongsense was not as strong or powerful as the Force. (DW, FP)

this spicy, slightly rotten-tasting food was considered a treat by the Yuuzhan Vong, who often gave it to their children as a reward. (EVC)
Vonya  
this woman was one of the Dathomirian Witches who served matriarch Zalem during the last decades of the Old Republic. Many of the males the Witches kept as slaves believed Vonya to be the prettiest of the Witches. It was Vonya who discovered Ros Lai and Quinlan Vos in an ancient temple, where Ros Lai's true nature was revealed. She barely escaped a confrontation, and returned to Zalem to report on her daughter's treachery. Vonya later recaptured Quinlan and returned him to Zalem. When Quin and Ros Lai tried to escape, Vonya set out after them in a subterine. They flew into the center of the Star Chamber, where Vonya tried to destroy the other vessel. The heroic efforts of Yag Shushin allowed Quin to continue the pursuit, and he eventually shot down Vonya's craft. Vonya died in the resulting explosion. (SWIE)
Vonzel  
this man was one of the smugglers who used to work with Han Solo and Roa, during the early years of the New Order. Vonzel was permanently disabled when he botched an emergency landing, and was forced to spend the rest of his life immoblized in a hospital. (HSR)
Vook Gehu  
this Duro served aboard the No Luck Required during the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. As a member of the Search and rescue Corp, Vook served as the ship's chief engineer, ensuring that the engines and hyperdrive were in good working order. When Klin-Fa Gi proposed a reckless plan to rescue Bey Gandan from the Yuuzhan Vong slavers, Vook was the only member of the crew to agree with the mission. His opinion was not based on support of the Jedi, but on his own desire to free sentient beings from the torture of the Yuuzhan Vong. (GMR10, EOV, SWI62)
Vookto  
this Duros Jedi Master was killed three months after the Battle of Geonosis, during the defense of the planet Lianna. Known for his dry humor and quiet demeanor, Master Vookto took up the mantel of an officer during the Clone Wars, despite his own personal reservations about the direction the Jedi Council was taking. His death in battle allowed an entire squadron of his troops to survive an attack. (J1)

Voolvif Monn  
this Shistavanen Wolfman was one of the few members of his species to join the Jedi Order, during the last decades of the Old Republic. Discovered by Jedi Master Paouoish Rahhdool, Voolvif Monn had been orphaned on an unknown planet near the Arah asteroid belt. His skills as a tracker and his ability to harness the energy of the Force for defense made him a formidable opponent. He managed to survive the Battle of Geonosis, and was elevated to the rank of Jedi Master shortly afterward. He then took command of a group of clone troopers during the Clone Wars. (SWDB)
Vooma  
this Yinchorri female was the daughter of Kardek, who offered her up for marriage to Vilmarh Grahrk, in order to ensure the Devaronian's help in stealing starships from the Golden Nyss Shipyards, shortly after the Battle of Naboo. (TDV)

Voor  
this Imperial Lieutenant served on the Star Destroyer Relentless. It was Voor who discovered Alliance agent Dana trying to dispatch information on the bounty for Adar Tallon to the Alliance. (TM)
Voor  
this Skeebo was the Kaptain of the Skeebo City Konstabulary force when Anachro was kidnapped by the Skavers. Voor put up minimal assistance in recovering the Hutt, because Voor was secretly in command of the Skavers. He hoped to obtain a huge reward from Gorga the Hutt, but Gorga hired Boba Fett to assist in Anachro's rescue. Fett captured Voor and forced him to lead him to the Skavers' hideout in the Southern Crags. Fett successfully recovered Anachro, much to Voor's dismay. (BF)
Voor Beetle  
a species of swarming insect. (GOF10)
Voorg the Thandicant  
this was one of the Outer Rim's most notorious slavers. Voorg worked from a base in the Kala'uun Starport on Ryloth, where he controlled much of the slave trade passing through the facility. Despite his less-than-reputable businesses, the Twi'leks of Kala'uun considered selling slaves to any being but Voorg to be smuggling, and often punished others who dealt in Twi'leki slaves by freeing the slaves and imprisoning the smugglers. (ND, PSPG)
Voorhorian  
this man was a native of Alderaan. He was part of a group of Alderaanians who traveled to Yavin 4, following the destruction of the first Death Star, to meet with Princess Leia Organa. He was extremely loyal to Leia, and was adamant about restoring the memory of Alderaan. (IS)
Voorlach  
much of the trade which occurred on this planet was controlled by the Klatooinan Trade Guild, during the New Order. (PSG)
Voorlach Temple  
this ancient ruin was discovered on the planet Krykis IV by Doctor Corellia Antilles. She remembered the dig well, because it was believed to have been a religious site, and was filled with hundreds of mysterious artifacts. However, further investigation revealed that the Voorlach Temple was simply an old marketplace, and the artifacts were merely trinkets that were sold there. (SWJ14)
Voorpak  
this tiny, furry carnivore was native to the planet Naboo. The round body of the voorpak was mainly fur, with a thin body supported by eight spindly legs. Their wide eyes and excellent hearing made them successful hunters, and were known to be fearless and loyal. Many of the Naboo considered the voorpak the perfect pet, since it was loyal to its owner and - despite its size - would attack any being who threatened them. Their soft fur also made them retain body heat, making them "living handwarmers." This fur also had a pleasant scent, which mingled with that of their owner. (WSW)
Voors, Hallolar  
this young entreprenuer was a native of the planet Jubilar. Some fifteen years before the Battle of Hoth, Boba Fett accpeted a job offer from Jabba the Hutt to kill Voors, who had begun selling black-market spice in defiance of the Hutts' cartel on the substance. Voors was fooled into thinking Fett was a potential seller, and offered to provide regular shipments to the bounty hunter. Fett released a neural toxin, incapacitating Voors' bodyguards long enough to shoot the man, in an alley on Executioner's Row. (TBH)
Voorsbain  
the population of this planet was the unknowing target of Uris' first proposed test of his improved nanogene droids. (GMH)
Voorson  
manufacturers of large-scale power generators. (ISB)
Voorson, Deen  
this idealistic young man was an ardent supporter of the Alliance, despite the fact that much of his family worked for the Empire. He believed that the Alliance was right, and the murder of his parents only strengthened that belief. He joined up as a technician and mechanic, and worked on the Alliance's starfighters at Yavin 4 and Hoth. He tried to gain a favor from his aunt and uncle at the Kuat Freight Port, hoping to maneuver a power generator off the main line and into the pirate ship Long Run, captained by Boo Rawl. While his aunt and uncle gruffly declined to help Deen and the Alliance, his young cousin Shannon had no such reservations. The nine-year-old used her slicing ability to reroute the power generator - using her mother's authorization codes - to the Long Run. Deen was glad for the help, but believed that his aunt had had a change of heart. When he and Rawl discovered Shannon hidden in the Long Run's holds, he reluctantly agreed to bring her along. The Imperial pursuit forced his hand, and he fled Kuat with Rawl, the power generator, and Shannon. (SWJ9)
Voorson, Johan  
this starship repairman was part of a long line of Voorsons who dedicated their lives to working within the Kuat Drive Yards. Johan, like many of his relatives, married another KDY laborer, and was somewhat disdainful of the "wandering Voorsons" who left Kuat for broader horizons. His disdain for his nephew Deen - who pleaded with him to release a power generator for the Alliance - eventually led to the loss of his daughter, Shannon. Shannon believed, as Deen did, that the Alliance was rightly battling against the Empire. Shannon sliced into the KDY computers and arranged to get the power generator to Deen's people, then stowed away on Deen's ship. (SWJ9)
Voorson, Nell  
this Kuat Freight Port traffic controller married Johan Voorson, and they lived their lives in service to the Empire. She could not abide the actions of her nephew, Deen, and sided with her husband when they refused to help him supply the Alliance with a power generator. Her daughter, Shannon, sliced into the Kuat computer system and arranged for Deen to obtain tha generator, then stowed away on Deen's ship. Nell was on duty when the generator was stolen, and fired on the pirate ship until Shannon's voice suddenly sounded on her comm channels. Her dedication to the Kuat facility failed to completely override her parental instincts, and she directed several transports to move between the Long Run and the Imperial pursuit until Deen's ship escaped to open space. (SWJ9)
Voorson, Shannon  
this precocious, nine-year-old child grew up at the Kuat shipyards, watching her parents slave for the Empire's war machine. Her best friends were books and computers, and she learned a great deal about independence and strength from reading Vici of Alderaan. She was an accomplished computer slicer for her age, and looked up to her older cousin, Deen. She admired him for his dedication to the Alliance, and found herself willing to leave her parents to join as well. She sliced into the Kuat Freight Port's duty schedule and helped the Alliance steal a much-needed power generator, and then stowed away on the pirate frieghter Long Run, piloted by Boo Rawl and her cousin, Deen. (SWJ9)
Voort  
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)
Voort saBinring  
this Gamorrean male was one of several non-humans the Empire performed experiments on, in an attempt to improve the intelligence of certain races to levels at which they could understand Imperial commands and act as soldiers. Known as subject Gamma-9104, Voort was given several brain-enhancing surgeries that expanded his span of concentration and increased his mathematical abilities, but his vocal apparatus were incapable of conveying the Basic language. Thus, he was outfitted with a translator unit which he wore around his neck. He was the only known escapee of the Binring projects, since all the others were either killed or committed suicide in an escape attempt engineered by their creator, Tuzin Gast. Voort took his opportunity and escaped from Imperial control, fleeing to the Alliance. There, he expressed a desire to become a pilot, and took a name which denoted his "creation." He eventually became one of the first members of Wraith Squadron, and was given the nickname "Piggy." His last name is a derivative of the company that "produced" him, Binring Biomedical Product. As a member of the Wraiths, Piggy was the group's hand-to-hand combat expert. He was also the strength of the squadron, and his skills were invaluable during the hunt for Warlord Zsinj. He was nearly killed when Jart Eyan tried to execute Admiral Ackbar, but Voort took the blaster shots meant for his superior officer. His Gamorrean physiology allowed him to absorb the blasts, and he was forced to kill Eyan to protect Ackbar. After recovering from his wounds, Voort played a key role in the infiltraton of the Binring Biodemical facility on Saffalore, and helped captured Doctor Edda Gast. Years later, Voort rejoined the New Republic forces at Borleias, when Wraith Squadron met up with Wedge Antilles after the Second Battle of Coruscant. Voort and Sharr Latt were ordered to create the aura of a deit around Jaina Solo, in an effort to trick the Yuuzhan Vong invaders into believing that she was Yun-Harla incarnate. (WS, IF, SOC, EL1)

Vop the Usurer  
this greasy Rodian tyrant was known for his grating style and the constant odor of cheap raava which surrounded him. He was completely unaware that his main rival, the Bimm named Ritinki, had murdered his primary accountant Lyle Lippstroot and replaced him with a duplicate. Both crimelords had planned to meet aboard the Song of the Clouds to discuss an alliance, but Ritinki learned that Vop was going to purchase a sealed lockbox from the Ithorians. The lockbox held a Gun of Command, and was desired by virtually every crimelord in the Outer Rim. Ritinki had Lippstroot killed in an effort to acquire the lockbox for himself. Then, in the midst of their meeting, Vop was shot in the back and killed when a firefight broke out. (SWJ15)
Vo-pickup  
an audio device which takes incoming sounds and encodes them for transmission to another site. It is basically a microphone. (SME)
Vor  
a race of hollow-boned humanoids from the planet Vortex, they have a rack of wings on their backs. They normally lived on the planet's surface, but they have built underground shelters in which they live during the intense seasonal storms. They were a tribal race which didn't have much of an opinion on anything but their music. When Palpatine assumed the role of Emperor, the Vors covered all the holes in the Cathedral of Winds in protest, refusing to let offworlders hear their songs. Even after the Battle of Endor, they reluctantly allowed non-Vors- to visit the planet. In the wake of the destruction of the Catherdral of Winds, the Vors once again shut off all contact with the galaxy. (DA, JASB, UANT)

this form of stun stick was developed by the Aing-Tii Monks. (KR)
Vor'corkh  
this Noghri served as the first dynast of Honoghr during the early years of the New Republic. When Leia Organa Solo trie to prove that the Noghri had been deceived for decades by the Empire, Vor'corkh was the most vocal of those who did not believe her. However, after exposing an espionage droid among those droids that were supposedly restoring Honoghr's crops, and after showing how the Empire's kholm-grass could kill other plants, Vor'corkh was forced to agree with Leia's assessment. (DFR)
Vord'lya  
this Bothan was a member of the Alya clan, and revered Borsk Fey'lya above many other Bothans.

Voritor  
this two-meter-long, predatory reptile was native to the planet Dantooine. The voritor moved about on four heavily-clawed feet, which it used to dig into the ground or hold tightly to its prey. A pair of dorsal fins stood high upon its back, allowing the reptile to gather or dissipate body heat as needed. The hide of a voritor was incredibly tough, helping to protect the reptile when it hunted or fought for territory. Xenobiologists could not agree how long these creatures lived, but their lifespan seemed to be in the hundreds of years. (ROD)
Vork  
this young, male Gorph was the son of Queen Slugga. The Queen feared that her son woulod never find a princess, and set out to find one herself.

Vorknkx  
this Imperial corvette was the first ship to be equipped with the new cloaking device created at the Vorknkx Project's laboratories on To-phalion, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. It was during this time that the former leader of the project, Grand Admiral Zaarin, was attempting to kill Emperor Palpatine and take control of the Empire for himself. The attempt failed, and Zaarin fled to To-phalion, hoping to steal the Vorknkx and hide somewhere in the galaxy. Grand Admiral Thrawn tracked Zaarin to To-phalion, and purposely modified the cloaking device on the Vorknkx so that it would not work in hyperspace. When Zaarin stole the ship and tried to make the jump into hyperspace, the Vorknkx exploded, killing all onboard. (SWI66)
Vorknkx Project  
this secret Imperial research project was aimed at creating a working cloaking device for starfighters. It was rumored to have been set up on the planet To-phalion, in the Iast System. (TIE)

Vorn, Liegeus Sarpaetius  
this man served as Seti Ashgad's holo-transmission faker, during the attempt by Dzym to take control of the galaxy. Born to a wealthy house, Liegeus was a blacksheep who preferred to steal other people's ideas and use them to his own benefit. Early in his career, Liegeus had a romantic affair with Imperial Admiral Daala, but the two wen their separate ways when Daala was stationed at the Maw Installation. Liegeus was employed for his ability to create realistic, highly illegal holo-vids that passed as the real thing. He also had a large part in the construction of Dzym's flagship, the Reliant. Liegeus posed as Ashgad's pilot when the leader of the Newcomers first met with Leia-Organa-Solo. Liegeus created a series of transmissions that helped cover the tracks of Ashgad and Dzym after they kidnapped Leia and disposed of her small fleet of ships. Liegeus, however, realized that Ashgad was not in control, and understood that Dzym was not all that he appeared. Liegeus strove to help Leia where he couldn't help himself. He allowed her to dump out the drugged water Ashgad provided, while secretly providing her with pure water. When the time came, Liegeus helped her get free of her room and escape, although his part in her escape waspunished by Ashgad and Dzym. He was later discovered by Luke Skywalker, who rescued Liegeus from Dzym and brought him tothe Newcomer camp. Liegeus recovered, and once free of Seti Ashgad and Dzym, he helped the reunited Newcomers and Oldtimers begin to rebuild their world. When Daala arrived with the representatives of the New Republic to find Leia and Luke, he was reunited with Daala. The two left Nam Chorios, bound for Daala's reclusive residence on Pedducis Chorios. (POT, ECH)
Vor'Na'Tu  
this ancient Jedi artifact was destroyed by Echuu Shen-Jon on the planet Krant, in order to prevent the device from falling into the hands of Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine.

Vornez  
a town on Yavin 4, located near the Alliance's medical center. (LCJ)
Vornskr  
this species of canine predator was native to the planet Myrkr. Vornskrs had long, sharp claws and whip-like tails that excreted a mild poison, and they moved about in the forests of Myrkr with exceptional agility and stealth. Zoologists theorized that the bobbing of a vornskr's tail tended to reduce their natural aggression. Those vornskrs that were captured when young and had their tails bobbed were often used for pursuit and killing by hunters who took the time to work with them. Vornskrs were also somewhat sensitive to the Force, and preyed on the ysalamiri. (HTTE, EGA)
Vorol  
this pointed-eared being was one of the many smugglers who were sought out by Lando Calrissian and Chewbacca, during their search for Han Solo. Vorol was working on The Wheel at the time that Calrissian and Chewbacca intercepted him, and provided information on the whereabouts of Bossk. (LTA4, MC69)
Voroos  
this species of large, legless reptiles was found on a variety of planets throughout the galaxy. They were predatory by nature, relying on stealth and camouflage to trick their prey into getting too close to their mouths. Voroos individuals could attain lengths of ten meters, and lived in moist, marshy areas where they were often mistaken for mossy hillocks or submerged tree trunks. They were considered immobile by most xenobiologists, and it was speculated that they reproduced when the palak beetle transported genetic material from one voroos to another. (COG)
Vorpal Demise  
this ZH-25 Questor light freighter was owned by the Alliance. (SWJ5)
Vorrik's Folly  
this was the name given to the large mass of orbiting debris created around the planet Esfandia, in the wake of the Battle of Esfandia. It was named for the Yuuzhan Vong Commander, B'shith Vorrik, who had tried to destroy the Esfandia Long-Range Communications Base on the planet's surface. However, faced with the combined forces of the Galactic Alliance and the Imperial Remnant, Vorrik was unable to hold the planet. His flagship, the Kur-hashan was badly damaged in battle, and Vorrik tried to ram his attackers with the dying hulk. The ship exploded before it could do any damage, creating the largest chunks of debris around the planet. The Galactic Alliance worked diligently to make sure none of the orbital debris fell to the planet's surface, protecting both the base itself and the population of Brrbrlpp which lived in the atmosphere. Much of the debris coalesced into an asteroid-sized mass, the primary body in Vorrik's Folly. (FH3)
Vorrin Tal  
a famous member of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. (RPG)
Vorru, Fliry  
this Corellian served the Old Republic as the planetary governor. He assumed the title of Moff after Emperor Palpatine took control of the galaxy, and administered Corellia with a loose hand. He often turned a deaf ear to smuggling and priacy, and the resulting influx of smugglers and pirates tainted Corellia's otherwise spotless history. Vorru was considered to be a rival for Palpatine's position early in the New Order, until Prince Xizor had him arrested and sent to the prison on Kessel on trumped-up charges. This allowed Xizor to take control of the Corellian criminal world and use it as a training ground for his future lieutentant, such as Zekka Thyne. Years later, when the New Republic was trying to find information on Coruscant's defenses, Wedge Antilles liberated Vorru on the condition that he keep an eye on Zekka Thyne. Vorru agreed, and was set loose on Coruscant. He petitioned the New Republic to allow him to create the Imperial City People's Militia, as a way to get the underworld under control without expending addition Republic resources. Basically, the ICPM would mean that the criminals governed themselves, under the control of Vorru himself. The Provisional Council reluctantly agreed, and Vorru set up his militia. However, he had his own agenda, with some direction from Ysanne Isard. The ICPM became a revamped Black Sun criminal organization, and Vorru became its crimelord. He controlled the information going back to the Council, and was even so bold as to apprehend Kirtan Loor. He blackmailed Loor into working for him, and began playing his own aspirations against the demands of both the New Republic and Isard. In the end, Vorru became Isard's man in all aspects, and leaked information about a supposed Palpatine Counterinsurgency Faction attack on his own bacta storehouse. This helped deflect the Republic from the plans of Isard, who then destroyed much of Imperial City while raising the Lusankya from its drydock and fleeing Coruscant. Vorru went with her, and when they arrived on Thyferra, Isard made Vorru her Minister of Trade. When they created the Thyferran Home Defense Corps, Vorru became involved with Erisi Dlarit, and the two spent equal time alone in love and mocking Isard. When the Battle of Thyferra started and began to go the way of Rogue Squadron, Vorru tried to escape form Thyferra in his personal shuttle. He was caught by Elscol Loro and Iella Wessiri. When he tried to escape, Elscol shot him in the throat. However, her weapon had been set to stun by Iella, who wanted to bring him before the New Republic to atone for his crimes. (WG, KT, TFE, BW)

Vortex  
this planet was the homeworld of the Vors, and the site of the Concert of the Winds. Its rotational axis is very steep, causing extremely sudden seasonal changes. This causes large atmospheric storms to rage across its surface, making landing from orbit difficult at best. It has no natural satellites. It has a temperate climate, and is covered by forests, mountains, and plains. Its day lasts 18 standard hours. Its year lasts 421 local days. (DA, JASB)

Vorzyd 4  
this was the name used to describe those Vorzydiaks which were native to Vorzyd 4. (TTW)
Vorzyd 4  
this planet, the homeworld of the Vorzydiak race, was the fourth world in the Vorzyd System. Vorzyd 4 was known as the manufacturing center of the Vorzyd Cluster, and produced much of the food and durable goods for the system. Some eleven years before the Battle of Naboo, the Jedi Council was asked to mediate a dispute between Vorzyd 4 and its neighbor, Vorzyd 5. The Vorzydiaks of Vorzyd 4 claimed that the natives of Vorzyd 5 did not want to work for their credits, yet wanted to control the Vorzyd Cluster. The leadership of Vorzyd 4 was unaware that the Freelies were behind the sabotage. Ultimately, the work of Obi-Qan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn helped bring the Freelies and Chairman Port together, and peace was restored - both on Vorzyd 4 and between Vorzyd 4 and Vorzyd 5. (TTW)
Vorzyd 5  
this was the name used to describe those Vorzydiaks which were native to Vorzyd 5. (TTW)
Vorzyd 5  
known as the Gambler's World during the reign of Emperor Palpatine, Vorzyd 5 was a casino-covered world under Imperial control. The Emperor maintained the planet in an effort to collect large sums of credits for the Empire. Dozens of space-going holopanels and billboards announced the planet's location throughout the system. The various gamblers and party-goers were a mix of the richest and most influential beings in the galaxy, all come to wager their credits in games of chance. Many of the games were heavily rigged, and brought substantial amounts of money to the Empire's coffers. Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa attempted to disrupt the operation shortly after the Battle of Yavin, but were captured in the attempt. They were rescued by Alliance supporters. (CSWEA)
Vorzyd Cluster  
this was another name for the inhabited worlds of the Vorzyd System, including Vorzyd 4 and Vorzyd 5. (TTW)
Vorzyd I  
this searing ball of rock was the innermost planet of the Vorzyd System. (GORW)
Vorzyd II  
this gas giant was the second planet of the Vorzyd System. It was orbited by eight moons. (GORW)
Vorzyd III  
this terrestrial world was the third planet in the Vorzyd System. It was orbited by a single moon. (GORW)
Vorzydiak  
this was the native language of the Vorzydiak race. (GORW)
Vorzydiak  
this was the near-human race which was native to the planets Vorzyd 4 and Vorzyd 5. In general usage, those beings native to Vorzyd 4 were referred to as Vorzyd 4's; Vorzyd 5's were the Vorzydiaks native to Vorzyd 5. The average Vorzydiak resembled a human being, but had yellow skin, wider eyes, and a pair of long antennae sprouting from their head. Most Vorzydiaks attended school every day of the week until the age of ten, when they started working one day a week in the factories of their homeworld. Each year, they worked an additional day each week until, at the age of seventeen, they worked full-time, seven days a week. At the age of seventy, a Vorzydiak was allowed to retire, being deemed to old to keep up with the younger Vorzydiaks. Most Vorzydiaks died shortly after retiring, being unable to adapt to life without work. As a people, Vorzydiaks tended to be isolationists, and rarely made contact with other beings or worlds. They were also minimalists, and tended to value conformity and stasis. Among the various peoples of the Commonality, the Vorzydiaks were the first to achieve hyperspacial flight, after the Old Republic provided them with the basic technology. Their exploration of the nine sectors brought many races together, but the efforts of the Vorzydiaks was overshadowed by the exploitation of the Commonality by the Columexi. (TTW, GORW)
Vos  
this was one of the largest, and most powerful, Kiffar clans which were native to the planet Kiffu. (NEGC)
Vos  
an Alderaanian swear word. (XWRS)
Vos Gesal Hotel  
this hotel, located on Coruscant during the last decades of the Old Republic, was popular with entertainers from across the galaxy. Found in the Uscru District, the Vos Gesal Hotel was distinguished by its bullet-shaped building and the spotlights that shone from its domed roof. As its name suggested, the Vos Gesal Hotel was located on Vos Gesal Street, near the Outlander Club. (IWE2)
Vos Gesal Street  
this busy thoroughfare was located on the lower levels of the Uscru District of Coruscant. (HNN5, SWDB)
Vos, Asante'  
this Kiffar was dispatched to Ryloth to work with Quinlan Vos to locate Aayla Secura. Asante' was a Guardian of Kiffu, and had once been close to Quinlan while he had lived on Kiffu. When Quinlan discovered the existence of Kessel energy spiders in the ryll caves of Ryloth, they were attacked by Asante', who revealed that she had been part of the group which was developing glitteryll. She nearly killed Quinlan, then revealed that it had been herself and Pol Secura who fed Quinlan and Aayla an overdose of glitteryll to erase their memories. Their plan had been to do away with the Jedi without killing them, thereby clearing the way to continue production of glitteryll. Before she could execute Quinlan, Asante' was attacked by one of the huge spiders. (SWT)
Vos, Korto  
Quinlan Vos assumed this alias during the years following his return to the Jedi Order, in an effort to gather intelligence on the state of the galaxy as the Separatists began to grow in power. Korto Vos was a former Republican Guard who finished his tour of duty and set out on his own as a mercenary. His base of operations was aboard The Wheel space station, where he was attended to by the Chadra-Fan Tookarti. When one of his operatives, a thief named Khaleen, stole a datadisk containing detailed information about a Separatist on Kamino, Vos decided to allow the disk to return to its owner, the crimelord Zenex. This would ensure that the Separatists did not discover that their plans for Kamino would have fallen into the hands of the Jedi Knights. Zenex, however, discovered that Vos was a Jedi, and threatened to kill Khaleen and Aayla Secura. Aayla, however, was too strong for his pheromones, and managed to kill Zenex before he could eliminate Vos. This served two purposes: it allowed Vos's identity as a Jedi Knight to remain a secret, thus preserving his information network; and it allowed Vos to use a subtle nudge with the Force to convince Zenex's Neimoidian contact that nothing was amiss with the datadisk. He continued to use the Korto Vos alias during the mission to liberate Brentaal from the Separatists, until he was captured by Shogar Tok's troops. Unknown to the Separatists, though, was that Korto Vos and Sagoro Autem had planted a series of explosives. These explosives went off spectacularly, destroying much of the weaponry protecting Tok's fortress and allowing Vos and Autem to escape. Korto returned to Khaleen on Nar Shaddaa, where he found himself pursued by Jedi Master Agen Kolar. Kolar knew who Korto truly was, and was acting on intelligence from Tookarti that Korto had turned traitor and joined the Separatists. While this was exactly the outcome the Jedi Council had wanted when it inserted Quinlan into place as Korto Vos, Agen Kolar was unaware of this background. With the help of Khaleen, who was captured and held for questioning, Korto managed to escape from Kolar. He then set out to confront Tookarti, for selling him out to the Jedi. Korto revealed his true identity to the Chadar-Fan before killing him, further cementing his deep-cover story. With the Korto alias compromised, Quinlan was freed to "defect" from the Jedi Order, allowing him to get deeper underneath the Separatist forces. (RS, J2, RDB)
Vos, Kurlin  
this man, the older brother of Tinte Vos, was the Sheyf of the Kiffu many years before the Battle of Naboo. He later ceded control of the Kiffu to Tinte herself. It was Kurlin who allowed the Jedi Master Tholme to take Quinlan Vos to Coruscant for formal Jedi training, despite the arguments of his sister. (DRKN)
Vos, Pethros  
this man, a native of the planet Kiffu, was married to Quian Vos. Both were members of the Guardians of Kiffu, and were the parents of the noted Jedi Knight, Quinlan Vos. Both Quian and Pethros were killed when a group of rogue Anzati, under the command of Volfe Karkko, breeched the interdiction of Kiffex to establish a base of operations there. (DRKN)
Vos, Quian  
this woman, a native of the planet Kiffu, was the cousin of Tinte Vos and was married to Pethros Vos. Both were members of the Guardians of Kiffu, and were the parents of the noted Jedi Knight, Quinlan Vos. Both Quian and Pethros were killed when a group of rogue Anzati, under the command of Volfe Karkko, breeched the interdiction of Kiffex to establish a base of operations there. (DRKN)
Vos, Quinlan  
this young Jedi Knight was a Kiffar who was discovered by Ki-Adi-Mundi and allowed to leave Kiffex to train on Coruscant. Note that Star Wars: Darkness indicates that Quinlan was discovered by Master Tholme. His parents, Quian and Pethros, were members of the Guardians of Kiffu, but were killed by a group of rogue Anzati under the command of Volfe Karkko. His remaining family hoped he would remain loyal to Kiffex first, and Quin vowed to return to his homeworld as often as possible. As a Padawan, Quinlan trained with Obi-Wan Kenobi, and they fought side-by-side with their Masters during the Stark Hyperspace War. His psychometric talents were quite strong, and Quin was quickly raised to the level of Jedi Knight after being trained by Jedi Master Tholme. Quinlan had just started training Aayla Secura as a Padawan when he was captured on Nar Shaddaa by Pol Secura. His memory was erased with an intense overdose of glitteryll, although he still had contact with the Force. He lacked his old discipline, however, and came very close to the Dark Side of the Force before returning to Coruscant. He was later dispatched by Mace Windu and Saesee Tiin to infiltrate the planet Dathomir and locate a connection between the Witches of Dathomir and the disappearance of the planet Ova. He hoped to learn more about matriarch Zalem and her clan, in an effort to link the temples on Ova to those on Dathomir. Quin, distinguished by the stripe of yellow tattoo which crossed his face horizontally, was taken captive and enslaved by Vonya, and earned special notice when he killed a guardian whuffa worm singlehandedly. He was offered a chance to serve as Zalem's personal bodyguard, but he hestiated enough to be relegated to keeping wild kwi. In doing so, Quin learned that of the ancient Kwa and their Infinite Gates. He also learned that, because of his killing of a guardian worm, he was now the guardian of the Star Chamber on Dathomir. He was later recaptured by Zalem, but was rescued by his friend Yag Shushin and Ros Lai, who was herself a Dark Side adept. They were unable to prevent Zalem from unleashing an Infinity Wave at Coruscant, but Quin managed to destroy the command module of the Star Chamber on Dathomir, eliminating the Wave before it hit the planet. He also brought Ros Lai to Coruscant as a prisoner, in the hopes of returning her to the Light Side of the Force. Shortly afterward, Quinlan was recalled to Kiffu by his aunt, the Sheyf Tinte Vos, to help discover the increase in attacks by feral Anzati. Quinlan also discovered that his former Padawan, Aayla Secura, was on Kiffex, under the control of the Dark Jedi Volfe Karkko. With the help of several other Jedi Knights, including Quinlan's former teacher Tholme, Quinlan overcame the Dark Side and defeated Volfe Karkko in one-on-one combat. Instead of returning to Coruscant with the rest of the Jedi, Quinlan left Kiffu with Vilmarh Grarhk, following Master Zao's belief in letting the Force guide his path. He was later reunited with Aayla when Master Tholme was captured by Kh'aris Fenn and imprisoned with Nat Secura on Kintan. They managed to defeat the Morgukai warriors, Tsyr and Bok, and rescued Tholme and the Secura heir. Upon returning to Coruscant, Quinlan Vos was elevated to the rank of Jedi Master, for his work in freeing Master Tholme and helping resolve the upheaval on Ryloth due to Kh'aris Fenn's actions. As the Clone Wars broke out, Quinlan decided that the best way to help was to go underground and infiltrate the Separatists. He adopted the alias of Korto Vos and managed to help the Jedi in a number of arenas, specifically on Brentaal. As Korto, he worked to infiltrate the Separatist network as part of an elaborate plan conceived by the Jedi Council. In a daring move, the Council dispatched Agen Kolar to arrest Quinlan and bring him back to Coruscant for justice. Kolar was unaware of the plan, and was chosen because he would never actually kill Quinlan, despite any "crimes" he might have committed. When Kolar failed to recover Quinlan, it gave him a chance to abandon the Korto Vos alias and reveal himself as a Jedi who had become disillusioned with the Republic and the Jedi Order. After he killed Tookarti, he completed his transformation by delivering his "resignation" to the Jedi Council in a holographic message from a secure location, so as not to be traced. He then traced down Count Dooku on Antar 4, and did what was necessary to win the Count's trust. While on Antar 4, Quinlan learned that Dooku had been negotiating with Sheyf Tinte for the rights to establish a Separatist base on Kiffu. He had managed to win a measure of Dooku's trust when they traveled to Kiffu to complete the negotiations with Tinte. When Dooku ordered Tinte's death, Quinlan couldn't stand by and allow it. He killed Kadrian Sey before she could assassinate Tinte, then took the old woman and fled. However, Dooku apprehended them and forced Quinlan to read Tinte's mind. After learning of Tinte's treachery - how she had murdered her brother, of her dealings with the Anzati Jedi Volfe Karkko, how she allowed the Anzati to keep the prisoners on Kiffex quiet by allowing the Anzati to feed on them, and how she sealed the pact by giving Quinlan's parents to Karkko as sacrifices - Quinlan could no longer control his anger. Although Tinte claimed to have only wanted Quinlan to follow in her footsteps, he refused to listen. When Dooku presented Quinlan with a lightsaber, he eagerly cut down Tinte Vos, killing her on the spot and solidifying his turn toward the Dark Side of the Force. The Jedi Order feared that his turn was complete, but Quin continued to maintain that it was a necessary aspect of his cover. Some six months before the First Battle of Coruscant, Quin was reunited with Obi-Wan Kenobi aboard the Titavian IV, after Obi-Wan answered the ship's distress call. The pair barely escaped from Asajj Ventress and Skorr, and Quin then traveled to Rendili with Obi-Wan. After his brave efforts during the Rendili Fleet Crisis, Quinlan was allowed to rejoin the Jedi Order. Unknown to his friends and the Order, Quinlan's actions were all part of a much more devious plan of Count Dooku's design. After having turned Quin to the Dark Side, Dooku planned to have Quin return to the Jedi Order, as a traitorous double agent. Quin, however, finally realized that the Jedi Order was his true home, and he eventually abandoned the plans of Count Dooku. He kept this change of heart to himself, however, hoping to use his position within the Separatists to locate the second Sith Lord who was working with Dooku. Information gathered from Salje' Tasha led Quinlan to believed that the second Sith was Sora Bulq, and Quinlan agreed to serve as Oppo Rancisis' second-in-command at the Siege of Saleucami in order to get close to Bulq. On Saleucami, he was forced to assume command of the mission when Rancisis was killed by Sora Bulq. His fellow Jedi believed that he was privy to what Master Rancisis had planned, but Quinlan was ignorant of what had been done while Rancisis was in his battle meditation. So, Quinlan was forced to create his own battle plan, which ultimately succeeded in eliminating Sora Bulq. However, the loss of Rancisis weighed heavy on everyone's minds. In the wake of the battle on Saleucami, and after learning that Khaleen Hentz was pregnant with his child, Quinlan vowed to leave the Jedi Order when the Clone Wars were over. Vos later led the forces of the Grand Army of the Republic into battle on Boz Pity, during the Outer Rim Sieges. In the wake of the First Battle of Coruscant, Vos was dispatched to Kashyyyk as part of 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. Upon hearing the order, clone troopers opened fire on Vos, utterly destroying the defenseless Jedi Master. (SWIE, OWS, SWT, DRKN, ROP, J2, RDB, J3, J4, RDR, IS3, RT, RSOS)
Vos, Tinte'  
this female Kiffar served as the Sheyf, or the leader of the Guardians of Kiffu, during the last decades of the Old Republic, after her brother Kurlin stepped down from power. She hated the fact that Kurlin allowed Quilan Vos to be taken to Coruscant for Jedi training, wishing instead that he be trained as a Guardian. Before Jedi Master Tholme could leave Kiffu, though, Tinte' used Quinlan's incredible psychometric powers to "read" her cousin Quian's family amulet. Quian was Quinlan's mother, and she was killed when a group of rogue Anzati attacker her ship. Tinte' needed to know how Quian died, and used Quinlan despite Kurlin's objections. Quinlan was deeply affected by the knowledge of his parent's deaths, and Kurlin was left with no choice but to send Quinlan to Coruscant for healing as well as training. Many years later, shortly after the Battle of Naboo, Sheyf Tinte' contacted the Jedi Council about Quinlan's loss of memory at the hands of Pol Secura. When Quinlan returned to Coruscant instead of Kiffu, she demanded that the Jedi Council dispatch Quinlan - her own flesh and blood - back to Kiffu to investigate the destruction of a security outpost. She refused to accept the help of T'ra Saa, the Jedi watchman of the sector, although she would not reveal her true desire. Once Quinlan was on Kiffu, Sheyf Tinte' used his psychometric abilities to discover the reason that a band of feral Anzati were suddenly attacking the Kiffu. However, further investigation by the Jedi Council revealed that Tinte' Vos was incarcerating political prisoners, in addition to criminals, on Kiffex, in direct violation of an agreement with the Old Republic. Mace Windu, Plo Koon, and Adi Gallia were dispatched to the twin planets by Chancellor Palpatine himself to remedy the situation, as well as to rescue the Jedi who were already on Kiffex. Sheyf Tinte' remained free, however, and was approached by Count Dooku, who wanted to establish a Separatist base on Kiffu. Tinte' remained defiant, and Dooku ordered her death. Quinlan tried to stop it, exposing the fact that he was still working for the Jedi Order. He took Tinte' and fled, but Dooku apprehended them and forced Quinlan to read Tinte''s mind. After learning of Tinte''s treachery - how she murdered her own brother because he allowed Quinlan to go to Coruscant for training, her dealings with the Anzati Jedi Volfe Karkko, how she allowed the Anzati to keep the prisoners on Kiffex quiet by allowing the Anzati to feed on them, and how she sealed the pact by giving Quinlan's parents to Karkko as sacrifices - Quinlan could no longer control his anger. Although Tinte' claimed to have only wanted Quinlan to follow in her footsteps, he refused to listen. When Dooku presented Quinlan with a lightsaber, he eagerly cut down Tinte' Vos, killing her on the spot and solidifying his turn toward the Dark Side of the Force. Her memory lived on for many months, haunting Quinlan's dreams and leaving him shaken. (OWS, SWT, DRKN, J4, RSS)
Vos, Zac'ryah  
this Kiffar served as a General in the armed forces of his homeworld of Kiffu, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. A veteran of many wars, Zac'ryah was distinguished by his white-streaked hair and the cybernetic eye that replaced his left eye, glowing red and giving him a menacing appearance. When the Battle of Geonosis plunged the galaxy into conflict, General Vos was believed to have died on Kiffu during the skirmish with Separatists that took the like of Tinte Vos. This was eventually proven to be the truth, although Quinlan Vos used Zac'ryah's identity to infiltrate Coruscant and assassinate Senator Viento, during the period of time Quinlan worked directly for County Dooku. Quinlan's protrayal of Zac'ryah was a bit too emotional, especially when Bail Organa suggested that Tinte' Vos had been killed by a Dark Jedi. (RSS)
Vosa, Komari  
this woman was being trained as an apprentice to Count Dooku, otherwise known as Darth Tyranus, during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. She went rogue just after the Jedi Knights defeated the Mandalorians on Galidraan, after her training was cut short by the Jedi Council. The Council feared that she had become unstable, and pointed to her infatuation with Dooku as evidence. Komari fled Coruscant, but she later joined the task force of Jedi Knights dispatched to Baltizaar. It was believed that she died in the battle at Baltizaar. When he found out she was still alive, Tyranus put a huge bounty on her head, to ensure that Jango Fett accepted the bounty and set out to eliminate her. Tyranus hoped to aqccomplish two things: eliminate any threat posed by the Bando Gora to the plans of Darth Sidious, and test Jango Fett to prove he was a legitimate candidate to serve as the basis for a clone army. Jango discovered that Komari Vosa had become the leader of the very Bando Gora cult she had battled on Baltizaar, after slaying her fellow Jedi and turning to the Dark Side. She believed that the Jedi Order - and Dooku in particular - had abandoned her, and set out to exact revenge against those she now hated. Her weapons of choice were a pair curved lightsabers, similar to the one used by Dooku. Komari Vosa and her followers developed a form of death stick that warped the mind of its user, creating a slave for the cult's own use. She used these drugged slaves to attack her enemies. The cult was eventually smashed by Jango Fett, who managed to confront Vosa on Kohlma. Jango would have killed her if Tyranus hadn't stepped in. Tyranus then explained that he had trained Vosa years before, and used the Bando Gora as a way to test Jango's suitability to serve as the template for the clone troopers that were created for the Army of the Republic.

Vosdia Nooma  
this was the name of the title character in the Rodian drama The Trickery of Vosdia Nooma, which was written and produced just before the Clone Wars. Nooma was a poor farmer whose daughter was bitten by an insect and suddenly poisoned. As the community rallied around his family, Nooma began spouting political rhetoric that paralleled the pro-military stance of much of the Old Republic of the time. He eventually got himself elected Baron of the town of Yusk, filled his cabinet with his friends and cronies, and exacted hughe taxes from the farmers of Yusk. He refused to fight back when a veteran Soldier returned from battle to incite the people against him, even when a Paladin arrived to offer his services. The bloody conflict that followed was meant to indicate the future of the Old Republic, should the Military Creation Act not be passed by the Galactic Senate. (HNN5)
Vosengoor, Cerisa  
this woman served as an Old Republic judiciary official, working on Coruscant during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Judiciary Vosengoor spent part of her career investigating the training practices of the Jedi Knights, especially with regards to young children. (HNN5)
Vosh, Trence  
this man, a native of the planet Alderaan, was a Navy Captain who served the Old Republic during its final decades. Captain Vosh was in command of the Leviathan Dreadnaught, patrolling the hyperspace trade routes and enforcing Old Republic trade laws. (SOG)
Vo-Shay, Kinnin  
this man was known throughout the galaxy as the man who never lost a sabacc match. Many believed that Vo-Shay obtained magical assistance from the amulet he wore around his neck, although the amulet was nothing more than a gift from an old girlfriend. Kinnin was easily recognizable by his silver-streaked white hair, pale violet eyes, and the long scar that ran around his mouth and past his nose. It was believed that Kinnin and his ship, the Ashanda Ray, were lost in the Tyus Cluster some fifty years before the Battle of Endor, but Vo-Shay showed up on Nar Shaddaa shortly after the battle. He had been helping the young man named Nyo to obtain a lightsaber Nyo wanted. Nyo dreamed of becoming a Jedi Knight, and tried to win enough credits to buy the weapon by playing sabacc against the Herglic gambler Doune. Kinnin soundly defeated Doune, taking more than 200,000 credits in the match. However, he won the hatred of Doune, who beat them to Nar Shaddaa and stole the lightsaber. Doune then challenged Vo-Shay to one last hand. The stakes were Vo-Shay's amulet against the lightsaber, and Vo-Shay purposely lost the hand. He wanted to ensure Doune wouldn't come after them anymore, and he knew that Doune didn't want the lightsaber in the first place. He was right on both counts, as the Herglic gave up the lightsaber after winning the amulet. Vo-Shay then told Nyo of his experience in the Tyus Cluster, where he was caught in the gravity well of a mass of black holes along with the disembodied Jedi Master, Aryzah. Lost in the timeless null void of the black holes, Aryzah taught Vo-Shay how to use the Force. He then managed to get free of the black holes, and Aryzah stayed with him from then on. After meeting Nyo, Vo-Shay and Aryzah agreed to help him learn more about the Force. (TFNR)
Voss  
a planet. (GMR6)
Voss  
this Imperial Major, distinguished by his full beard and mustaches of bright red hair, was in command of a Star Destroyer as part of Admiral Giel's armada, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. His ship was one of the first vessels attacked when Luke Skywalker and a small team infiltrated Giel's fleet to try and destroy it. When he realized that the attack was coming from TIE Fighters piloted by Alliance pilots, Major Voss ordered his gunners to spray defensive fire at the smaller ships. Despite concerns from his gunnery officers about hitting other Imperial ships, Major Voss ordered the TIEs destroyed. Other commanders followed suit, unaware that their wild fire was striking and damaging the rest of the armada. (MC61)

Vosso  
this Rodian arms dealer worked with Gredori, Keesi, and Aald during the early years of the New Order. (WOTC)
Voss'on't, Trhin  
this Imperial stromtrooper was the Commander of on of the Empire's Strategic Insertion battalions. Fiercely loyal to the Empire, Voss'on't was more than willing to play the part of a defector in a scheme hatched by Prince Xizor and endorsed by Emperor Palpatine himself. In the plan, which was meant to splinter the two factions that resulted from the breakup of the Bounty Hunters Guild, Voss'on't was supposed to play the part of a renegade commander who took control of an Imperial-class Star Destroyer. He was believed to have forced the ship's crew to evacuate at gunpoint, then took the vessel and fled to the Outer Rim with a hand-picked crew of accomplices. Once there, Voss'on't executed his crew and took the most valuable parts of the Star Destroyer and sold them. Among the weapons and computer systems he stole, Voss'on't also took with him the encrypt/decrypt codes used by the Strategic Insertion forces to send and receive their orders. The story was that he would sell them to the highest bidder, most likely the Alliance, who could use them to anticipate covert Imperial strikes. This all made for a valid scenario, since Voss'on't actually did kill him crewmates, and the codes were meant to exist for months while the Special Insertion teams remained hidden. Voss'on't hid out on a world with a dying mining outpost, waiting for the bounty hunters to find him. His skills as a soldier allowed him to dispatch the weakest or most foolhardy of the hunters, but he met his match when Boba Fett and Bossk apprehended him. Although both hunters nearly died in the capture, Voss'on't was nonetheless brought in. Kud'ar Mub'at served as the middleman in the bounty arrangements, since the reward for his capture was incredibly large. However, when Fett delivered the soldier, he found himself doublecrossed by Mub'at and Prince Xizor himself, who had aligned with the subnode Balancesheet to cross them all. Voss'on't was left stranded from Imperial support, and was executed by Xizor's agents, seemingly at Palpatine's order. (SLS, HM)
Vossuk  
this Quarren was known as a very reliable, although not quite trustworthy, information broker during the years leading up to the Battle of Endor. Based on Gall, Vossuk provided the Bothan SpyNet with the first inklings of the location of Han Solo's carbonite-frozen body, when Boba Fett arrived on Gall to make repairs to his ship, Slave I. It was later discovered that Vossuk had actually been working directly for Fett, and had leaked the information about Solo's whereabouts to draw a number of bounty hunters to Gall. Fett then took solo's body and blasted off from Gall, in an effort to shake off the pursuit of those bounty hunters who were trying to steal Solo's body and claim the bounty offered by Jabba the Hutt.

Vox, Wade  
this young man was a native of Alderaan, and the son of a wealthy merchant family. He was away from the planet on business when it was destroyed by the first Death Star, and was forced to make a living as a smuggler. He barely survived a number of dangerous missions before making his way to Tatooine. There, he tried to set up his own operations but refused to pay "protection money" to Jabba the Hutt in order to remain independent. Wade was then kidnapped by Jabba, who forced him to race in a series of demolition derbies against a variety of opponents. In these events, Wade was known as a formidable competitor who had just enough control of the Force to keep himself alive. He used a modified X-34 landspeeder as his vehicle of choice, a craft he purchased from BoShek shortly after arriving on Tatooine.

Voxyn  
bio-engineered by the Yuuzhan Vong from the genetic material of a vornskr and a freo xyn from their own galaxy, the voxyn was a large creature designed to seek out and destroy any being which used the Force. They moved about on eight curved legs, and measured a meter in height and four meters in length. The flat head of a voxyn was dominated by a wide mouth which could regurgitate the acidic contents of its stomach and belch them at a target. This brown mucus attacked anything it came in contact with, and could destroy living flesh in a matter of minutes. Its black scales protects its body like armor, and its dorsal ridge was lined with sensory spines. A white barb studded the end of its whiplike tail. The Yuuzhan Vong bred voxyn to combat the Jedi Knights, using a laboratory based on the worldship Baanu Rass, in orbit around Myrkr, to create a queen from which all other voxyn were cloned and bred. The average voxyn had only a short lifespan after being released from the laboratory, since they required a nutrient compound which was only found on Myrkr, but were more than equipped to make the most of their lives. The Yuuzhan Vong Shapers who were responsible for creating the voxyn discovered that the creatures went wild in the presence of an ysalamiri, losing their natural cunning and going insane. Their beady, yellow eyes were virtually useless until the voxyn located its prey and got close enough to attack it. One of the voxyn's more formidable attack methods was to screech out an intense blastwave of sound, which rendered most beings incapacitated. The blood of a voxyn was also unique, having the ability to transmutate into a neurotoxin exposed to most kinds of air. The toepads of a voxyn were infested with dozens of forms of retroviruses, all but rendering a single antidote useless in the event of infection. Even the tail of the voxy, a holdover from its vornskr origins, administered a neural shock when it touched exposed flesh. All in all, the voxyn was engineered for just one thing: to kill a Jedi Knight. The Jedi realized this, and launched a desparate plan to eliminate the queen at Myrkr. Although many Jedi died in the attempt - including Anakin Solo - the voxyn queen was eventually destroyed when it was led into a dovin basal and consumed by the gravity well. Only a single clone remained of the voxyn species, which Warmaster Tsavong Lah maintained for future use against the Jedi. From this clone he managed to grow six more voxyn before the Battle of Ebaq, which were used to locate any Jedi on Ebaq 9. (SBS, EL2, DW, NJOSB)

They met on Etti IV for what was ostensibly a romantic tryst, hoping to get Rex to try and steal her "corporate secrts." When he found out who she was and that she was trying to arrest him, he pulled a vibroknife on her and threatened her life. This was when a vacationing Fiolla stepped in. Fiolla had recognized Shaxrigge, but when he pulled the knife she felt she couldn't just stand by and watch. In helping Dagmar apprehend Shaxrigge, Fiolla proved herself worthy of consideration by the CSA. Dagmar remembered Fiolla's fearlessness and boldness, and hired her when she graduated. Dagmar took Fiolla under her wing and schooled her, grooming her to promotions. When Dagmar finally retired, she recommended that Fiolla take over her position, which was agreed to by the CSA. (CSA)

(SOP)
Vratix  
this alien race, native to the planet Thyferra, perfected the creation of bacta by combining alazhi and kavam. They vastly outnumber the human natives of the planet, but are considered inferior to their corporate counterparts. The Vratix are humanoid insects. They have large, compound eyes, a stalk-like neck, and three pairs of limbs sprouting from a cylindrical thorax and abdomen. The upper set of limbs acts as triple-jointed arms, while the lower two serve as legs. The last set of limbs is well-muscled, and is used in jumping. Most Vratix are gray in color, with the shades darkening with age. They have a basic form of hive mentality, but are able to function as individuals. They believe that sight and sound are not permanent things, and prefer to touch another being in order to recognize their presence. The Vratix on Thyferra govern themselves through the Ashern Circle. However, the strong pro-human sentiments found in the Zaltin and Xucphra factions have labeled the Ashern as terrorists. Although the Ashern are widely considered responsible for the contamination of certain lots of bacta, this may only be a ruse to cover up an internal struggle. The Ashern, through the Vratix Qlaern Hirf, petitioned Wedge Antilles to sponsor their admittance to the New Republic, but the move was placed in limbo when Ysanne Isard took control of Thyferra. Eventually, the Vratix were about to expel the human leaders of the bacta cartels, and took control of Thyferra's production facilities. Each Vrtaix individual was given two names. The first was the name of their hive, while the second was a given name. (XWN, KT, SWJ3, SWI64, UANT)
Vratix  
this was the name given to the native language of the Vratix. It consisted of a series of clicks and high-picthed sounds, which were augmented by changes in skin color. Because of this combination, no written form of the Vratix language was created, and non-Vratix could only learn to understand - but not speak - the langauge. (EGP, UANT)
Vratix Occupation  
this was the term used by certain galactic corporate leaders to describe the ten-year period that followed the Battle of Naboo which was known in the Vratix language as Alazhixazha.

They were known to be carnivores that would attack and kill a sentient being, although packs of vrblthers would attack any living creature they could find when hungry. It was believed that vrblthers evolved on the planet of Varl, although no direct evidence ever proved this. (DE2, ETM, WOTC, TF)
Vrecje

An expert in artificial intelligence, Vreen was known for cutting corners in order to reach his goals faster than his peers. recruited away from Bioniip by Doctor Issan Len for work on the X0-X1 project. However, while Doctor Len wished to use the droid for the good of the galaxy, Doctor Vreen saw the immense potential it held for the Imperial Navy. Vreen arranged to steal the X0-X1 prototype and installed it in the central datacore of Cloud City itself, hoping to prove to Lira Wessex that the droid was valuable to the Empire. Vreen himself was a victim of X0-X1's unusual transformation plans, and soon discovered that X0-X1 had implanted thousands of evolution droids into his body. Vreen suddenly found himself becoming a living automaton. Doctor Vreen decided that he had better atone for the damage he had done. With the help of a team of Alliance agents sent to protect Doctor Len, they were able to disconnect X0-X1 from the main computer and foil the droid's plans to take over Cloud City. Vreen himself had become a flesh droid, and sacrficed himself to gain access to X0-X1's lair in the central computer core. (CCC)

Vrook  
this ancient Jedi Master was a member of the Jedi Council on the planet Dantooine, during the years leading up to the Great Sith War.

He was among the first to openly question sending Duron Qel-Droma to Korriban during the Great Hunt, fearing that the Qel-Droma blood was already tainted with the Dark Side. When Darth Malak attacked and destroyed the Jedi Enclave of Dantooine, Master Vrook went into hiding for many years, until he was captured by Azkul and his mercenaries. Vrook would have been transported to Nar Shaddaa for the bounty on his head, if The Exile and his band hadn't intervened. Despite the fact that he was freed, Master Vrook appeared angry at being freed, and set out to locate any surviving members of the Jedi Order. However, he felt the Force connection in The Exile, and returned to his side just before The Exile was confronted by Azkul. Although The Exile did everything he could to avoid bloodshed, Azkul's brutal murder of Terena Adare started a massive firefight. After they survived the battle, Vrook provided The Exile with some insight into the Force before returning to the ruins of the Jedi Enclave. (KOTOR, KOTOR2, T23)
Vroon  
this S'krrr greeted Mammon Hoole and the Shroud when they landed near the Sikadian Gardens, on the planet S'krrr. As the caretaker of the famous Gardens, Vroon found it unacceptable for the starship to land so close to the delicate plants collected there. He allowed Hoole to repair the ship, but that effort was interrupted when then-Captain Thrawn arrived on the planet to study its art. Vroon himself discovered that the gentle wingsong of the S'krrr soothed the drog beetles which ate the plants of the garden. It was later revealed that Vroon was a member of a secret S'krrr cult that worshipped insects, believing them to be the god-like ancestors of rhte S'krrr. Vroon wanted Hoole and Thrawn gone so that he could continue to expand the drog beetle population, in preparation for a second-coming of the insects. Vroon had been killing the shreevs that fed on the drog beetles, throwing the dead bodies into a pile behind the Gardens.

The central hull was connected to a pair of dagger-shaped, forward-faced mandibles, giving the VT49 its distinctive shape. The original idea behind the VT49 Decimator was to have a ship that could "outfight anything it could outrun, and outrun anything it couldn't outfight." The Empire used them primarily for ambush missions and medium-distance patrols. Command of a VT49 was considered a promotion by many Imperial naval officers, as its small crew compliment allowed Captains to act without the need for a higher-ranking officer overseeing their actions.

To this end, they perpetuated the belief in the General Good and kept Kegan isolated from the rest of the galaxy. V-Tan had but a few visions, compared to the number experienced by O-Vieve, but both understood that the visions told of a terrible evil which would sweep the galaxt. Historians later determined that the Benevolent Guides foresaw the coming of Emperor Palpatine and the New Order. 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)

Vua Rapuung  
this Yuuzhan Vong warrior was once in love with the Shaper Mezhan Kwaad. The pair had hoped that the gods would condone their emotional attachment, but it was not to be. Rather than give up his status as a warrior, and threaten Mezhan's status as a Shaper, Vua broke off their relationship before they could be discovered. Mezhan felt scorned, and infected Vua with a disease that made his body reject the ritual scars that were demanded of a warrior. Vua was forced to relinquish his position as a warrior and became one of the Shamed Ones, although he knew that his status was the fault of Mezhan Kwaad and not the gods. He vowed to exact revenge on her, and found his chance when both were stationed on Yavin 4, during the invasion of the New Republic. Vua Rapuung encountered Anakin Solo in the forest, after having faked his death in an effort to plan his revenge. He claimed that his meeting with Anakin was required for his plans, and faked his death in order to reach Anakin. Vua agreed to help Anakin rescue Tahiri Veila, as the action helped get him closer to Mezhan Kwaad. Once inside the Shapers' damutek, Vua confronted Mezhan about his affliction. She revealed that had, indeed, been her doing that Shamed him, and the warriors among the Yuuzhan Vong allowed Vua a momentary return of status before killing him in battle. Vua's valiant efforts allowed Anakin and Tahiri to escape the damutek complex and return to the Jedi. (EVC)
Vua'sa  
according to Yuuzhan Vong legend, the god Yun-Yuuzhan created the vua'sa as the very first incarnation of a Warmaster. A beast designed specifically for war, the vua'sa commanded the entire Yuuzhan Vong army until a brave Yuuzhan Vong warrior stepped forward and defeated the vua'sa. From that point forward, a Yuuzhan Vong had served as Warmaster, and would continue to do so until another creature could defeat him. Over the millennia, the vua'sa became extinct, primarily due to the fact that they were vicious predators who reproduced quickly. This led to localized population explosions, with large numbers of vua'sa killing every creature in sight until they destroyed their ecosystem. With no food, the vua'sa eventually died out. (EVR, FP)
Vua'spar Interdictor  
this Yuuzhan Vong interdictor ship was developed after the invasion of the New Republic gaalxy had begun. Resembling two huge cones connected at their bases, the 908-meter-long Vua'spar interdictor was equipped with three enormous dovin basals for generating a gravity well that could drag ships out of hyperspace. The strength of this gravity well also had one other affect: it caused sever disruption to the brain-wave patterns of most sentient beings, rendering them unconscious for several minutes after their ship reverted to realsapce. These interdiction capabilities, coupled with several yorik coral arms that housed a full wing of thirty-six coralskippers, made the Vua'spar a deadly addition to the Yuuzhan Vong fleet. The Vua'spar was crewed by 638 warriors, and could transport up to 1,144 troops and 17,450 metric tons of cargo. It was armed with twenty plasma projectors and a forward-mounted heavy plasma projector, and it was protected by a collection of smaller dovin basals. These ships first appeared after the Yuuzhan Vong subjugated planets such as Duro and Fondor, after the New Republic began putting up increasing resistance to the invasion plans of the Yuuzhan Vong.

Vuffi Raa  
this was the name of the Class 2 multi-phasic robot Lando Calrissian won in a sabacc match from Ottdefa Whett on Oseon 2795, many years before the Battle of Yavin. Vuffi Raa was a star-shaped machine with flexible manipulators extending from each of the five points on his body. These manipulators were used as arms and legs for a variety of tasks, including locomotion. They could also be removed from the main body and operate independently from it, and each had a small red eye that was a miniature version of the main photoreceptor. These secondary eyes allowed Vuffi Raa to explore tiny cracks and crevasses while monitoring the progress of the detached limbs. Each of the five arms on his body ended with with tinier "fingers" that were as thin as human hair but flexible and as strong as many alloys. Vuffi Raa had a single, red, multifaceted photoreceptor eye in the center of his body, and his body was covered with highly-polished chromium that allowed him a great deal of flexibility. Vuffi Raa's creators were unknown, but he claimed to have been built in their image. The name Vuffi Raa was actually a numeric designation in their native language. Vuffi Raa could not remember his creators or his initial acitivation, because he was prematurely activated during shipping. This sudden start-up wiped out a large portion of his pre-programmed memories. The droid later learned that this had been part of an experiment that was performed by The One, the huge interstellar entity that was Vuffi Raa's father. He had hoped that Vuffi Raa would roam the stars, encountering other lifeforms and gathering data on them. This would help The One's people obtain stimulating information about the galaxy without having to enter into the violent tendencies of most races. Vuffi Raa was programmed against violence, so that he would not obtain tainted data about other lifeforms. Inside the droid's shell, a thick fluid circulated throughout his system, providing lubrication and coagulation properties, should the outer metal surface be punctured. It made Vuffi Raa a semi-organic machine, a fact that was eventually revealed years later. The One explained to Lando that Vuffi Raa was an infant organic starship, related to the huge machines The One and his people use to transport information. Vuffi Raa was intercepted by Rokur Gepta shortly after his activation, and was placed in the service of Osuno Whett. When Whett tried to gain power in the Renatasia System, he set Vuffi Raa up as the focal point and primary emissary to the backwater peoples of the system. It was for this reason that Klyn Shanga and his militia chased Vuffi Raa and Lando Calrissian throughout the galaxy. Shanga didn't know, until the end, that it was Whett who was to blame. Gepta had programmed Vuffi Raa to call Osuno Whett "Master," but Vuffi Raa's inherent nature overrode that command. However, when Vuffi Raa encountered Lando Calrissian, his programming found Lando to be a more civilized person than Whett. The small droid couldn't help it when his programming called Lando "Master." The unusual droid could not override all of its programming, though, and played his part as the Emissary when Lando was chosen as the Bearer. Vuffi Raa then had Lando arrested when he emerged from the Great Pyramid on Rafa V with the Mindharp. After this, however, Vuffi Raa discovered that any programming that Gepta had done had run out, and so he returned to Lando's side. The droid explained that he felt Lando was his true Master, and woefully explained the situation. Lando, who had become somewhat attached to Vuffi Raa, forgave the little droid as they blasted their way out of the Rafa System. Although Vuffi Raa refused to be set free by Lando, the young con artist designated the droid as his sole heir, in case Gepta or Shanga managed to kill him. During the defense of the ThonBoka, Vuffi Raa had several conversations with Lehesu, and discovered that his prohibition against violence did not extend to self-preservation, nor to the preservation of the lives he cared for. Thus, when the Millennium Falcon was attacked by Klyn Shanga's militiamen, Vuffi Raa was able to shoot down two of their fighters while Lando was trying to get his own weapons ready. After Lando managed to defeat Rokur Gepta near the ThonBoka starcave, Vuffi Raa discovered his true nature when he was greeted by The One. The little droid was then manumitted by Lando and allowed to roam the galaxy as the starship that he was. (LCM, LCF, LCS)

Vuintor, Jarik  
this slight, non-descript man rose to prominence in the Cularin System, during the height of the Clone Wars, and one of the representatives of the group known as Truth For Cularin. Despite his weak appearance, Vuintor was a vocal opponent of the government of Cularin, and openly questioned their motives in hiding certain pieces of information from the population. His broadcasts on the system HoloNet nodes often spoke of government cover-ups and wrong-doings that either caused or prolonged the various troubles that the Cularin System experienced. Many viewers called his tirades theatrical, and he often used stereotypical facial expressions and hand gestures to drive his points home. Many of the documentaries in which he appeared seemed to have originated on Cularin, but closer examination revealed that his "office" on Cularin was more than likely a remote studio that was made to look like Cularin.

Vulpter  
this planet, the homeworld of the Vulptereen race, was located on the border between the Deep Core and the Core Worlds. It was the third and primary world in the Vulpter System. At one time, Vulpter was a temperate world covered with grasslands and forests. Over time, the Vulptereen urbanized the planet, turning it into a smog-covered world of barren wastes and dingy industrial centers. During the years surrounding the Battle of Naboo, the planet was overtaken by the Trade Federation and turned into a dumping ground for the products the Federation couldn't sell anywhere else. The native Vulptereen were put to work drilling vast tunnels to serve as storage facilities for the Federation, and anything that was deemed too large or toxic to store on the planet was launched into orbit. This created a ring of debris around Vulpter, primarily made up of old adverstising materials, and choked out a measure of natural sunlight. Eventually, the Vulptereen population found that it could no longer produce its own food, and was forced to import the necessary foodstuffs to sustain themselves. For every city that survived the Clone Wars, five more were abandoned. During the New Order, Vulpter suffered even more, as the Empire not only shut down access to the Deep Core, but also cut off all shipments to Vulpter. The native Vulptereen perished by the millions, until Alliance agents arrived and exchanged food for land. The Alliance's presence helped the Vulptereen survive until the Battle of Endor, when the Empire was destroyed and access to the Deep Core was restored. The Vulptereen then set out to restore their homeworld, using technologies that proved successful on worlds such as Duro. (IWE1, SWI65, NEGC, PH)
Vulpter  
this star, located in the galaxy's Deep Core, was the central body in the Vulpter System. (PH)
Vulpter Orbital  
this space race was developed by the Vulptereen, in an effort to break the monotony of their existence during the New Order. The idea of the Vulpter Orbital was to race a small starship through the ring of debris that covered their homeworld, until one racer reached the finish line or all other racers were eliminated. (PH)
Vulptereen  
a species of squat-bodied aliens with long, tusk-studded snouts, the Vulptereen were native to the planet Vulpter. They are noted for their technology, especially in the areas of racing engines and machines. However, their desire to produce this technology overcame their basic survival instincts, and the Vulptereen redued their homeworld to a smog-choked industrial wasteland. This forced the Vulptereen to begin importing foodstuffs, since the planet could no longer provide the basic necessities. During the years surrounding the Battle of Naboo, Vulpter was overtaken by the Trade Federation. The native Vulptereen were put to work drilling vast tunnels to serve as storage facilities for the Federation. The situation only worsened after the Clone Wars, as the Empire cut off shipments of food to Vulpter when it shut down access to the Deep Core. Millions of Vulptereens died from starvation, and thousands more perished in riots that occurred when food became scarce. Thus, when Alliance agents arrived on Vulpter, the Vulptereens gladly allowed them to use the planet as a Deep Core base in exchange for food and other necessities. In the wake of the Battle of Endor, the Vulptereens set out to rebuild their homeworld. (IG1, IWE1, NEGC, PH)

Commander Vulpus was dispatched to Belsus by Dooku himself, to oversee General Grievous' efforts to meld the Force-sensitivity of Jedi Padawans with specialized Geonosian technologies. (SWGG)
Vulta  
this planet was the homeworld of the Vultan race. It was the primary world in the Atreyis System, on the spinward edge of the Mid Rim. Many xenoarchaeologists believed that the planet Vulta was among the first worlds to be explored and colonized by humans, following the invention of the hyperdrive. The Vultan race was thought to have descended from this baseline human stock. (TOJC, PJSB)
Vultan  
a humanoid race characterized by its thin frame and it unusual cranium, the Vultans were native to the planet Vulta. Their heads seemed to be a mass of twisted appendages or convoluted skin folds instead of hair. In reality, these fold were simply a cartilaginous net which protected their brains. In females of the Vultan race, this cartilage pointed outward, away from the skull like horns. They tended to have yellowish skin. It was believed that the Vultans evolved from baseline human stock, when the planet Vulta was first visited by explorers shortly after the invention of the hyperdrive. As a people, the Vultans were enamored with the latest in trends and fashions, and were known for their skills in creating and manipulating technology. (TOJ, TOJC, PJSB)

this Brosin male was Randle Clanse's most valuable lieutenant, within the command structure of the Brosin Underground. (AIR)
Vuras  
this Jedi's struggle with the Dark Side of the Force became a primary teaching lesson for many Jedi Masters. Vuras was confronted with an enemy that used underhanded tactics to continually outsmart and defeat him. Rather than seeking a new way of dealing with the enemy, Vuras simply resorted to using his own underhanded tactics. However, the inherent evil in these tactics, and the anger with which he embraced them, led Vuras to the Dark Side and, eventually, his own destruction. (PTR)
Vurdon Ka  
this temperate planet, the homeworld of the Vuvrian race, was covered with mosses and primitive plants. The atmosphere of Vudron Ka was quite stable, and lacked any major forms of weather. Thus, the planet's temperature remained stable within a fifteen-degree range, and cloud formations tended to build up and remain together for long periods of time. This left the surface of Vurdon Ka in a perpetual state of near-twilight, but this was more than made up for by the planet's pleasant environment. Many of the species which evolved on Vudron Ka, including the Vuvrians, had sensitive epidermal skin, an evolutionary result of the easy living experienced on the planet. (ANT)
Vuren  
a common name given to Twi'lek males, this name meant "mountain". (GCG)
Vurgat  
this ancient Tarasin ritual was believed to have been as old as the Tarasin race themselves. Each vurgat was a special event, and was held only when the leaders and seers of the Tarasin perceived the need to comprehend something truly important. The holding of a vurgat often marked the occurrence of a much greater event, which had repercussions beyond the Tarasin themselves. Attendance at a vurgat usually involved representatives from all Tarasin tribes, each of whom was called by a power which created strange dreams in their minds. (LFCW)
Vurk  
this humanoid, reptilian race was native to the planet Sembla. The Vurk were distinguished by the pointed crest which rose from the back of their skull, curving up to a half-meter in length behind them. Their faces were divided by the crest, with bulging cheeks and ocular bones supporting their large eyes. Their hands had three thick fingers and a opposable thumb, and the average Vurk stood more than two meters in height. Because the planet Sembla was constantly being remade due to volcanic activity, the Vurks evolved into efficient nomads. Because of this, they were often regarded in the galaxy at large as a primitive people. (SWDB)
Vurrha  
this being was the leader of the smuggler gang known as Vurrha's Blood, during the early years of the New Order.

Vuultin  
this was one of the largest cities on the planet Brentaal, and was controlled by Lon Isoto and the Cabal during the period following the Battle of Endor. Is Vuultin 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)
Vuultin Starburst  
this unusual medal was created by Lon Isoto, in honor of the efforts of the 181st Imperial Fighter Group in defending Brentaal from attack by the New Republic. It was organic in form, with a red, heart-like center and several gold and bronze flares. The first of these Starbursts was awarded to Turr Phennir. (XWES)
Vuurok I'pan  
this Yuuzhan Vong was a member of the Shamed Ones, and was relegated to living in the bowels of the planet Coruscant after it was transformed into a likeness of the long-lost Yuuzhan Vong homeworld of Yuuzhan'tar. A former warrior, I'pan was the first to encounter Nom Anor in the tunnels beneath the surface, after the former Executor fled capture for the loss of Jacen Solo. (FH1)
Vuvrian  
an alien race characterized by their ovoid heads and the thin tentacular appendages that hang on either side, Vuvrians were native to the planet Vudron Ka. Their thin skin was exceptionally sensitive, and the average Vuvrian could detect minute changes in air temperature and pressure caused by the presence of another being. The skin of a Vuvrian wrinkles with age and loses its sensitivity, especially if an individual lives on another planet. Vuvrians were more than happy to join the Old Republic, but had little interest in travel or colonization. They felt that any planet other than Vudron Ka was "unpleasant". As a people, Vuvrians were cordial and inquisitive, and many individuals have become some of the galaxy's greatest diplomatic and negotiators. (CCG, ANT, UANT)

this star system, originally discovered by Bshrah-Ky-Ushsj, was stumbled upon by Sig Coven. While in the system, Coven discovered what was the remained of Hez Kragg's fleet, including the Kragg's Fury. An orange-yellow star was found at the center of the system, and sixteen planets orbited it. Nine of the planets were gas giants, with the remaining seven being solid. Of these, five had atmospheres, and one - the fourth planet in the system - was determined to have a variety of lifeforms living on its surface. (SWJ7)

Vweilu  
a Corellian tree known for its deep, brown wood. It is often used in sculpture. The nut which grows on the vweliu tree is also used in making ryshcate. (XWN, TFE)
V-Wing Fighter  
this starship, officially designated the Alpha-3 Nimbus, was produced by Kuat Drive Yards during the last decades of the Old Republic. The fighter was developed by Walex Blissex to improve upon the Delta-7 Aethersprite, which Blissex believed had many flaws. Though designed for law enforcement agencies, the V-Wing was also available in a civilian model. Only a small number of V-Wings were built for civilian use, however. During the height of the Clone Wars, thousands of V-Wings were used in the naval fleet of the Old Republic, augmenting the ARC-170 fighters throughout the conflict. The V-Wing was a needle-shaped craft that maneuvered with the assistance of four moveable wings, which also served to help the craft dissipate excess heat during combat. The V-Wing measured just 7.9 meters in length, with a maximum wingspan of 3.8 meters. Each of these fighters was armed with a pair of twin laser cannons, and required a pilot and a Q7-series astromech to operate. In order to execute tight turns and complex maneuvers to counteract the abilities of the Separatists' vulture droids, the engines of the V-Wing were mounted one atop the other at the rear of the craft. Because of their small size, most V-Wings were unable to accommodate a hyperdrive system. Only those V-Wings produced as escorts for Emperor Palpatine's personal Theta-class shuttle were given compact hyperdrives, but these were limited-capacity versions that needed input from the shuttle to manage jumps. (TDR, LEV, TCG10, X3, SWDB)
V-Wing Speeder/Transport  
an airspeeder used by the New Republic at the first Battle of Calamari, the V-Wing was designed by Slayn & Korpil to be an all-environment speeder. Interestingly, a separate interface transport was used to move the speeder from its docking space. The transport section was loaded in order, and could carry four or six transports. The transport was then launched, and plunged through the atmosphere under snubfighter escort. The speeder pilots entered their ships during this plunge, moving through sleeves to their ships. When all was ready, the speeders were launched from the transport, which then disengaged from any battles. The V-Wing was required to fly back to the parent ship to refuel and be ready to launch more speeders. The four-speeder transport, designated Model A, was 20 meters long; the six-speeder version was the Model B, and was 27 meters long. The transport itself was unarmed. The speeder was 6.3 meters in length, and was armed with a double blaster cannon. Note that The New Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels indicates that the V-Wing was just 5.7 meters in length, with a wingspan of 9.6 meters. The speeder's design allowed it to channel air into Chab-Ylwoum scramjet intake channels, which helped the ship increase its base speed of 1,000 kilometers per hour to 1,400 kph, but reduced maneuverability.

Wald always managed to share his illicit earnings with his friends, and his friendship with Anakin was strong. However, when Anakin won the Boonta Eve Classic, Wald lost a great deal of credits on the race. He accused Anakin of cheating, and the two boys fought with their fists until Qui-Gin Jinn broke them up. Qui-Gon used the event to prove to Anakin that, no matter how hard you physically fight someone, you will never change their opinions. Note that certain sources indicate that this was actually a young Greedo the Elder, and not Wald, that Anakin was fighting. In the years following Anakin's departure, Wald remained close friends with Kitster Banai and Anakin's mother, Shmi.

Wampa Ice Creature  
the legendary white-furred snow monster of Hoth, the wampa was a four-meter-tall beast with huge paws, long claws, and curled horns atop its head. It had beady, yellow eyes, and was at the top of Hoth's food chain, hunting the native tauntauns for food. The white fur of the wampa allowed it to move across the snow-covered plains in near-perfect camouflage. Wampas were known to prefer live prey, and often locked their still-living catch in ice until they were hungry. Using its hot breath and saliva, the wampa imbedded its prey in the ceiling of its lair, thereby rendering it helpless to try and escape. The wampa was a solitary creature, inhabiting the natural ice caves that were found under the planet's icy crust. Each wampa roamed a wide and exclusive range, and defended it fiercely. The wampa was known to mournfully cry out at night, filling the snow plains with a plaintive song that was used either to attract a mate or arrange plans with their brethen. Because of their size, strength, and fierce reputation, the wampa was sought out by big-game hunters and thrill-seekers. Many times, though, it was the wampa that survived the hunt. Those hunters that managed to kill a wampa were rewarded with beautiful fur pelts and rare horns and claws. Due to the limited nature of Hoth's ecosystem, killing wampas had been outlawed during the last years of the Old Republic. The wampa was portrayed by Des Webb in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, and by Howie Weed in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back Special Edition. (ESB, ISU, EGA, TCG6)
wampa1  
this was the handle of one of the many slicers in the Cularin System who discovered the decrypted message posted on the HoloNet by Tiny F, during the early months of the Clone Wars. In his initial postings, wampa1 used simplistic terms and abbreviated spellings to communicate, a trait that earned him the reputation of a twelve-year-old working from his mother's computer. wampa1 was quite cynical about the truth of Tiny F's messages, despite the obvious support and belief of other readers. Because of the often simplistic extrapolations wampa1 put forth, he was often reviled in message threads, as happened when he tried to dig too deeply into the transmission sliced by mstrslcr regarding the Almas Academy. Later, after participating in the discussion of Nightwing's account of the killing of Commander Kulkis, wampa1 appeared to have been kidnapped by an unknown party. The clue was the use of proper grammar and spelling in his final post, which came shortly after a message from Lieutenant G. Bresch of the Cularin Military. Even wampa1's greatest detractor, known simply as alyssaroxu, chose to abandon the newsnets to avoid being arrested. (LFCW)

this was the only name given to the former leader of the tribes of Kariek, although many of the planet's natives referred to him as the Glorious Majesty.

The Warlord took control of the planet about four years after the Battle of Naboo, establishing his seat of power in the fortress of the ancient Cro-sal-trei tribe. He ruled Kariek through wanton violence, which led many to believe that the Warlord was a member of the Lakra race. However, he maintained a small contingent of support among the Eickarie, despite his aggression toward their race as a whole. When the United Tribes of Kariek was formed many years after the Battle of Endor, the Warlord retreated to his fortress and made every effort to disrupt the efforts of the UTK to bring lasting peace of Kariek. The UTK requested the assistance of the Empire of the Hand in eliminating the Warlord, twenty-two years after the Battle of Endor.

Waru  
a being from a galaxy in which anti-Force is the prevailing fabric of life. In the Star Wars galaxy, Waru appears as a large blob of meat covered in golden scales. Underneath the scales is raw flesh from which oozes a blood-like substance when exposed. It can assume a number of shapes, but prefers a round shape. Waru was brought across the galactic boundaries when Hethrir began torturing prisoners at Crseih Station. The disturbances in the Force caused by all that suffering, combined with the strange warping caused by the crystallizing star near the station, rended the normal Force fabric and drew Waru through. Hethrir quickly realized Waru's importance, and made a deal with it. Hethrir would help return Waru to its own galaxy in return for mastery over the Force. Waru agreed to this deal. Hethrir secretly began sacrificing his prisoners to Waru, until the inhabitants of the station began to catch whisperings of Waru existence. When the Empire collapsed and Hethrir went into hiding, Waru extended his circle of influence to include the station's population, and a religion grew from the "miracles" Waru could perform. These miracles were simply petty games Waru would play, using some of his collected Force energies to heal the weaker individuals while waiting for really strong Force-sensitives to come along. Waru would envelope an individual with his body, gauging the individual's Force sensitivity. Waru would consume those individuals who were strong with the Force, claiming that Waru could heal only those who truly believed in him. Any doubt hindered his abilities to heal. When Xaverri discovered Waru and his connection to Hethrir, she contacted Han Solo and the New Republic, who came to determine the threat. When they intercepted Hethrir trying to build the Empire Reborn on the Station, they acted quickly. Luke, Han, and Leia all tried to destroy Waru, only to realize that Waru's power lay not in the Force, but in anti-Force. Waru sensed Luke's strength in the Force, and tried to consume him in order to return to his own galaxy without any obligation to Hethrir. Luke resisted, with help from Han and Leia, and eventually Hethrir himself was consumed by Waru. The vast Force energies he gained from Hethrir allowed him to return to his own galaxy. (CS)

a plant native to the under-forest regions of Kashyyyk. Chewbacca was fond of eating wasaka berry pie. (WSB, TT)
Wasilsi  
this ancient species was once native to the planet Joralla, but eventually died out. Xenoarchaeologists have discovered that the Wasilsi were enemies of the Tikiarri, and that they were much larger and stronger than the Tikiarri. However, for unknown reasons, the Tikiarri survived while the Wasilsi disappeared. Many scientists suggest a plague spread across Joralla, but only affected the Wasilsi. Others claim that the Wasilsi were "seeded" on Joralla as part of an experiment, but their immune systems were unable to counteract the viruses of the jungle. (PG1)

Wasp Fever  
this was the phrase used by the Korunnai to indicate the effects of being bitten or stung by a fever wasp. As the larvae of the wasp grow and begin to feed on the brain cells of a host, the host experienced dementia, then severe seisures and spasms, as if suffering from a head injury. In general, wasp fever only lasted three or four days, which was the incubation period of the larvae. Any Korunnai stung by the fever wasp was generally considered dead on the spot, and their body was burned to prevent the larvae from hatching and causing more damage. (SHPT)

Thus, many of the systems and sectors are veritable wastelands of little value. (SWJ9)
Wastril Bread  
this bread was favored by Han Solo, especially when prepared by Dewlanna. (TPS)
Wat Tambor  
this Old Republic Senator was one of the many supporters gathered by Senator Palpatine of Naboo, during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. A Skakoan, Wat Tambor spent only a few years on his homeworld of Skako before traveling to Metalorn to pursue an interest in technology and industrialization. This travel required him to develop a full-body environment suit, in order to maintain an atmosphere similar to that on Skako. This metal suit covered all but the crown of his head. He was an excellent combat engineer, and later served as a chief executive of the Baktoid Armor Workshop before becoming one of the leaders of the Techno Union. In the wake of the Battle of Naboo, Wat Tambor was promoted Foreman of the Techno Union, overseeing the operations of such noted manufacturers as the Baktoid Armor Workshop and Hoar Chall Engineering, and managing development labs for Republic Sienar Systems and Kuat Systems Engineering. Wat Tambor was part of the delegation which traveled to Geonosis to join Count Dooku and the Separatists, shortly before the onset of the Clone Wars. As the war ground on, Wat Tambor became increasingly reclusive, and holed up in the Mazariyan fortress on Xagobah to avoid much of the war. He used his own expertise, along with that of other Separatists, to genetically alter several of Xagobah's plants and fungus, twisting them to become killing things that helped to protect the fortress. It was here, as the Clone Wars came to an end, that young Boba Fett found Tambor. Unfortunately for Fett, Tambor was being protected by General Grievous, who took Tambor under his protection and fled the fortress. After hiding on Utapau under the protection of General Grievous, the Separatist leaders were taken to Mustafar. It was there, after Darth Sidious finally lured Anakin Skywalker to the Darth Side of the Force, that the Separatist leaders met their deaths. Skywalker was dispatched to Mustafar by Sidious himself, with orders to eliminate them. Skywalker hunted them down and eventually killed Wat Tambor, before setting off after the rest of the Separatist leaders. (COD, HNN4, HNN5, SWDB, BF5, IS3)

Watchkeeper  
this was one of three Bakura-class destroyers deployed by Hortel Ossilege to assist the New Republic in breaking the blockade of the Corellian System. It was one of four ships, along with the Intruder, Sentinel, and Defender, that were built specifically for the defense of the Bakura System, in the wake of the Battle of Bakura. When the Bakuran ships entered the interdiction field, the HIMS systems kept them going. The Watchkeeper, however, sustained large amounts of damage entering the field, and was evacuated. Ossilege then used the ship as a decoy, remotely-controlling it as it appeared to be leading the Bakuran fleet. It was in this position that the Watchkeeper became the first ship destroyed by the Selonian planetary repulsor, as it smashed into the repulsor field and was flattened. Luckily, all hands were rescued after the impact, but the Watchkeeper was abandoned for scrap. (AS, CTD)

Watto  
this Toydarian junk dealer operated a large shop on the outskirts of Mos Espa, shortly before the Battle of Naboo. A former member of the Ossiki Confederacy Army on his homeworld of Toydaria, Watto lost a tusk and sustained a leg injury while fighting in the seasonal wars fought by his people. After retiring from active service, Watto traveled to Tatooine to set up his own junk business. A skilled gambler, Watto won the rights to Shmi and Anakin Skywalker in a bet with Gardulla the Hutt. Since that time, he used Anakin to maintain his shop while using Shmi for other duties. While he was Anakin's owner, Watto discovered that the boy was quite skilled at fixing things, and was also a quick study in podracing. Watto used the fact that Anakin was human - a trait not often associated with pod racers - to win money from his rivals in wagers on the races. He met his match when Qui-Gon Jinn arrived in Mos Espa, hoping to replace the hyperdrive on Queen Amidala's ship. Qiu-Gon recognized Anakin's skill as coming from the Force, and helped the boy enter the Bootna Eve race. When Anakin won the race, Qui-Gon not only won the hyperdrive but also Anakin's freedom. Watto never fully recovered from the loss of such a skilled slave, but his heart did soften a little bit. He even began to blame others for his so-called bad luck, knowing that much of his success had been due to Anakin's abilities. Watto began to treat Shmi with more respect, and even splurged once a week to buy them both some nectarot and pallie wine. Several years after Anakin left Tatooine, Watto agreed to sell Shmi to Cliegg Lars, who had obviously fallen in love with the slavewoman. Watto made several excuses and created a number of delays in the transaction, torn between the loss of a slave - albeit an older slave - and his hope that Shmi would be happy with Cliegg. Finally, it was Owen Lars who helped his father trick Watto into selling Shmi in exchange for a Tobal lens. After the deal was made, Watto admitted that he had deactivated Shmi's slave transmitter just months after Anakin was freed, afraid that Shmi would wander aimlessly off in sorrow and blow herself up. Years later, when Anakin returned to Tatooine in search of Shmi, Watto provided Anakin with information on the Lars family's location. Watto as portrayed by Andrew Secombe in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace. (SW1, OWS, AOTC, TG)

Wave Works  
this gift shop was located within the Fathoms restaurant complex, situated in the Glitter Cay Tower of Wildwater City on Calamari. Its most unique attraction was the "ceiling" of water devised by Jund Voon, its owner. Using specially modified repulsors, a swirling body of water was maintained at the upper reaches of the shop, making it appear as if patrons were shopping underwater. A group of local musicians was hired to play soothing pieces of music, further enhancing the aquatic experience. The Wave Works was known for its wondrous jewelry, created from the shells, gems, and pearls found in Calamari's oceans. Patrons marvel at Voon's skills with the jewelry, but it was really the work of Kei No Kay. (WSV)

Waverton  
this gruff man served as the Chief Purser aboard the Aurorient Express, some six years prior to the Battle of Naboo. As the ship's Chief Purser, Waverton was surprised to find that one of the cargo lots was illegally switched out, to allow a shipment of Fastlach-class defense droids to be brought on board. His investigation revealed that Podlong Foahl had been responsible for loading Saul Moegantz's cargo lot, which had been swapped out in favor of the droids. Waverton followed Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi in their search for Foahl, who had holed up inside the cargo bay. Foahl revealed that he had helped switch the cargoes, but seemed unaware of the real danger that the pressure pirates had placed the Aurorient Expres in. When Foahl threatened to set off a core bomb, Waverton shot him dead. Unfortunately, the Jedi had not yet learned the location of the bomb. It was later discovered that Waverton was in league with a group of pressure pirates, who hoped to disable the Aurorient Express and steal its cargo. He had a repellent signal emitter that allowed him to avoid being shot by the Fastlach-class droids, a fact that the Jedi were able to use to link him to Podlong Foahl and the pirates. Waverton admitted to his part in the plot, and then agreed to help resolve the problem of the core bomb. When all the plots to destroy Rhoden's wealth were revealed, Bouyardy and Waverton decided that they had had enough. They allowed the core bomb hidden inside the ship to explode, as payback for all their troubles. (TAE)
Waveskimmer  
another name for a wave walker. (DESB)
Waveskimmer  
a small repulsorcraft vehicle use on many ocean-covered worlds, the waveskimmer was designed to operate just under the surface of the water. This allowed a certain measure of stealth.

Wayland  
a primitive, backwater planet, Wayland was chosen by Emperor Palpatine as a hiding place for his high-technology projects, such as the cloaking device and his Spaarti cylinders. A forested planet not unlike Yavin 4, Wayland's treetop canopy was divided into two unique levels. Its day lasted 23 standard hours, and its year consumed 353 local days. The planet was home to the Psadan and Myneyrsh races, both of which lack any higher technology. It was originally discovered during the Old Republic's second expansion wave, but was lost from the records for many years. The colonists were forced to survive with little or no technology, and unknown to them, no chance of rescue or resupply. These first colonists quickly angered the native Psadan and Myneyrsh races, stealing land for their own use through superior technology. Just before his death, Palpatine placed the mad clone Joruus C'baoth on the planet to guard the technology stored in Mount Tantiss. He ruled there with the cruel sense of justice of a Dark Jedi until Luke Skywalker was called to the planet. In the swirl of events surrounding Grand Admiral Thrawn's death, Mount Tantiss was destroyed and C'baoth killed. In the years that followed, the Noghri were relocated to Wayland, and the city of New Nystao was formed in the shadow of Mount Tantiss. The New Republic discovered that it would be nearly impossible to restore Honoghr, and gave the Noghri a chance to rebuild on Wayland. When the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, Wayland was briefly used as a safe world for New Republic personnel. It was here that Elan was incarcerated, pending her transfer to Coruscant as a prisoner of war. Elan, however, had planned her capture, and provided the Yuuzhan Vong with information on Wayland's location with a villip she had kept hidden. After the Yuuzhan Vong staged a fake rescue attempt, they subjugated the planet Wayland and used it as a breeding ground for amphistaffs and other bio-organic weaponry. Much of the planet's crust and mantle was consumed by Chom-Vrone, huge, worm-like creatures that transformed raw materials into superheated plasma. (HTTE, HTSB, TLC, SOP, EVR, GMR10, SWI62, SWDB, NJOSB)

Waywa Fybot  
a feathered humanoid from an unknown race, Waywa Fybot was a 2.5-meter-tall alien with an orange beak, scaled, three-toed feet, and bright yellow plumage. He was a well-muscled individual, but spoke in a high-pitched voice that belied his strength. Despite its wings, his race was flightless, and his arms were essentially vestigial wings that had a membrane connecting them to his chest. Fybot also suffered from his race's nervous anticipation and their intense dreaming. As a youth, Fybot received Imperial conditioning, which made him tough and shrewd. He took this experience and became an undercover drug officer, which led him to become involved with the attempts to arrest Bohhuah Mutdah. It was believed that his role as Imperial narcotics agent was not his choice, but rather the payment of a debt owned by his people to the Empire. In this capacity, he also came under the notice of Rokur Gepta, who saw a way to finally kill Lando Calrissian by assuming the guise of Mutdah. Gepta paid Fybot to pretend to help Lob Doluff and Bassi Vobah, and to accompany Bassi and Lando to Oseon 5792, where Gepta had killed Mutdah and taken his place. Ostensibly, their mission was to arrest Mutdah on charges of buying and selling lesai. Fybot, however, had his legs broken in the flight to the asteroid when Lando's ship was attacked by Klyn Shanga's militiamen. He had barely recovered when they landed on Mutdha's asteroid. When he and Bassi Vobah burst in on Lando and Mutdah, Fybot quickly shot and killed Vobah, gaining the upper hand for Gepta. When Gepta felt that he had finally achieved his goal of trapping Lando, he decided that Fybot had outlived his usefulness, and killed the avian being in cold blood. (LCF)
Wayward Girl  
this freighter, owned by Jadonna Veloz, was berthed on Alderaan when Veloz suffered several injuries after a run-in with a malfunctioning anti-grav loader.

this muscular Bothan spacer was a part-time smuggler who frequented the cantinas of Mos Eisley during the early years of the New Order. About a year after the Clone Wars, Weasy became friends with Obi-Wan Kenobi, who was going simply by the name Ben. Obi-Wan cultivated their relationship because Weasy was an excellent - and accurate - source of news and inforamtion from across the galaxy. It was Weasy who agreed to transport Obi-Wan to Bellassa, after the former Jedi Master learned that Ferus Olin was alive on the planet. (LJ1)
Weather Modulation Control Center  
this was the name given to the atmospheric monitoring stations which were scattered above the planet Coruscant. These centers were responsible for manipulating the atmospheric conditions in order to bring "normal" weather patterns to the planet. These stations were required, as the planet-covering cityscape prevented natural weather from occurring. WMC Centers were also established to ensure that ionization storms - which were frequently caused by the huge amount of electricity used on the planet - were weakened before they could occur. (SWRPG)
WeatherNet  
this was the shortened name for the Coruscant Weather Control Network. (HNN4)
Weaver  
this Charon bio-construct is more of a weapon and defense mechanism than it is a lifeform. The weavers were designed to shoot their webbing for attack. Many of the weavers were used in the Desolate's Hall of Contests, where aline lifeforms were tested by the Charon for weaknesses. (OS)

Weazel was portrayed by Warwick Davis in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. (PRT)
Web, Robior  
this man, a former Guardian from the planet Junction 5, was one of the galaxy's most lethal assassins, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. He was known for his ability to take down prominent figures and high-profile targets without getting caught. He appeared on the planet Null, shortly after the Battle of Geonsis, amidst the assassination of Delaluna's leader, Samish Kash. When Count Dooku arrived to meet with the leaders of the Station 88 Spaceport, Obi-Wan Kenobi and his Padawan, Anakin Skywalker, witnessed Robior meeting with Dooku in a remote location. Their immediate assumption was that Dooku hired Robior to kill Samish Kash, despite Robior's connections to Lorian Nod. This assumption was proven true when it was discovered that Kash had survived, nad the Jedi witnessed Robior meeting with Count Dooku. When the negotiations for control of the Station 88 Spaceport revealed that its founders would remain with the Republic, Dooku tried to eliminate the founders. Robior tried to joint he fight, but Obi-Wan used the Force to push him away. Robior's head hit a rock, and he was knocked unconscious for the remainder of the battle. He was then taken into custody and held for questioning. (LOJ)

He and his crew were captured by slavers, and Webble was later dumped on Kalkovak, where he encountered an alien race worshipping the Yavin Vassilika. Webble himself started to go insane, his mind incapable of handling the reality of his situation. As his madness increased, especially after locating the Vassilika, Webble tried to escape from Kalkovak. After stowing away on a ship and ending up on Calamari, Webble was killed when his water speeder was disabled in the middle of ocean. He drowned, but his dying thoughts were captured by the underwater memory banks of the Mon Calamari. (UYV)

WED-series Droid  
this was the name given to the numerous Treadwell droids produced by Cybot Galactica. The basic WED-series was a rolling, six-armed robot used to perform menial tasks. There are a number of different sizes in production. Smaller models perform household tasks, while the 500- and 600-series are built to withstand the pressures of working in an antimatter furnace. The most appealing feature of this series was the variety of manipulator arms that could be installed, as well as the easy with which they could be interchanged. However, the WED series was fragile at best,and required continual maintenance to remain operating at its optimal abilities. (SW, COJ, EGD)
Weeb, Darren T.  
this man was the captain of the freighter Arcadia, which he operated as a business with Jenna Lars. Although he talks little about it, Weeb's life was upset by the Empire, and he maintained a deep-seated grudge against the New Order. Any time it didn't put Jenna's life in jeopardy, Weeb worked hard to help the Alliance in any way possible. (ML)
Weebacca  
this undersized Wookiee was a childhood friend of Chewbacca, but never earned the trust of his elders. Weebacca was continually getting into trouble, despite the efforts of Chewbacca to keep him out of trouble. After Chewbacca left Kashyyyk, Weebacca discovered gambling and smuggling, and eventually hired himself out as a bodyguard in order to see the galaxy. He even ran spice for the Hutts until the Empire subjugated Kashyyyk, when he raced home to serve in the underground resistance which struggled to overthrow Imperial control. (GB)

When he and his father discovered the Towani's crashed shuttle, they helped the children recover, and later helped them rescue their parents from the Gorax. He was given the Ewok Red Wings of Courage by Logray, as the eldest son accompanying Deej on the mission. Weechee was portrayed by Debbie Carrington in The Caravan of Courage. (EA, SWDB)

Weed-cutter  
this devastatingly deadly explosive was created by the forces of the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the height of the Clone Wars. It was essentially a smart bomb that was launched in a high arc, so that it could avoid any defensive screens. It then targeted a large concentration of clone troopers and came down in their midst. The bomb was equipped with a sensor that detonated the bomb at chest level. When it exploded, the weed-cutter flung a payload of razor-sharp durasteel flechettes in a circular pattern, cutting through armor just as easily as it did through flesh. The resulting damage to the clone troopers was incredible, rendering entire companies into ragged lumps of flesh. (MJH)
Weeffil Liff's Trading Center  
located on Ord Mantell, this general store served the needs of most every starship passing through the planet's primary spaceport. Housed in an old starship construction hangar, the Trading Center also served as a front for most of Liff's illegal business transactions. (GMH)
Weege, Plessus  
this small-time thief was a native of the planet Draenell's Point when the Empire took control of the Bissillirus System and began constructing its supply depot just outside the system. Plessus knew that would never amount to anything as a con artist, so he became an informant for the Imperials on the planet. Plessus spent his free time at the local bars, like the Farmer's Folly, listening for potentially useful information about the local rebellion. Plessus had a feeling that Drukus Kain was working for the Alliance, but he had no proof. (GMK)
Weegee  
this droid was built by Morgan Katarn so that he could have a helper around the house. A strange conglomeration of parts, Weegee became like a member of the family. Although mute, Weegee could communicate with Morgan via a series of low, chirrupping sounds. When plugged into the homestead's central computer, Weegee could operate the entire farm without any intervention. Later, Morgan programmed Weegee to protect Kyle at all costs. When Qu Rahn entrusted his lightsaber to Morgan, he hid the device inside Weegee. He then encoded a journal disk for his son, Kyle, so that he could use the information to locate the lost Valley of the Jedi. Weegee, despite being damaged when Jerec's forces attacked the household, nevertheless retained the lightsaber and provided it to Kyle. (DF2, SFE, RAG)

this Lord and landowner from Xartun was actually an alias used by the Warlord Zsinj to gain control of property on Xartun. Zsinj used these aliases to secretly manufacture materials for his war machine. (WS)
Weequay  
a race of humanoid aliens which is characterized by the topknot of hair which sprouts from their heads. The number of braids - known as seclusion braids - one has seems to indicate rank, although many xenosocialogists claim the number of strands is meant to indicate the number of Sriluur years a Weequay has been away from his homeworld. This theory was later proved true, when it was discovered that Weequay individuals shaved off their topknots when they returned to Sriluur. Weequay have gnarled, coarse skin which allows them to blend in with, and survive in, the deserts of their native planet, Sriluur. Among other Weequay, they have the ability to communicate using pheromonal discharges, but they only seem to work within individual Weequay clans. To other races, they are simply smelly beings. In general, Weequay do not have individual names. They are a quiet, dangerously violent race by nature, and have often found employment as soldiers, guards and mercenaries for the Hutts. The Weequay people have lived on Sriluur with the Houk people for many years, but the racial tensions between the two races have erupted several times into all-out war. The last of these wars was resolved just prior to the Battle of Yavin. The Weequay prefer to remain low on the technological scale, and worship the moon which orbits Sriluur and its god, Quay. The name "Weequay" means "follower of Quay." The Weequay appease their god by sacrificing a large beast after battling it. The beast most often sacrificed is the bantha. One of the most interesting things about the Weequay is their written language, which is formed from stones woven into long braids of hair to create symbols and characters. (ROTJ, TOJ, GG12, EGC, CCG7, TG)

Weez  
this young man was one of Ren S'orn's friends on Simpla-12. Weez, along with his buddies Cholly and Tup, were bumblers at best who worked hard not to work at all. The three friends agreed to help Obi-Wan Kenobi and Astri Oddo investigate Ren's death and the machinations of Jenna Zan Arbor. After Tino told Obi-Wan and Astri of Captain Yur T'aug's halt to the investigation of Ren's death, Weez, Cholly, and Tup followed the two to Coruscant. They hoped to find the location of Zan Arbor's hidden stash of medicines and vaccines, taking them and selling them for a huge profit. They had planned to steal them all along, but Ren had told them to stay away from Zan Arbor. Weez felt that if the trio could see Ren's belongings, they could locate the stash and obtain the medicines. The trio returned to Simpla-12 with Obi-Wan and Astri, but were unable to help them infiltrate Zan Arbor's lab. The trio tried to redeem themselves by helping Astri locate Ona Nobis, first tailing the bounty hunter on Sorrus and then following her to Belasco. In the end, the boys never saw any fighting, but provided "moral support." They agreed to travel to Coruscant with Astri to work as Didi's Cafι. (EVE, TDR)

Wehttam  
a planet near the Koornacht Cluster, Wehttam was the homeworld of the Wehttam species. It was found in the Farlax Sector, and was one of the many planets that suffered during the Great Yevethan Purge. Years later, after the Yevethan were defeated by the New Republic, the Wehttam were one of many races to knowingly cut off communications with the Republic. The planet was isolated because the Wehttam had agreed to provide information to the Yuuzhan Vong on the military strengths of the Yevetha, in hopes of having the alien invaders eliminate the Yevethan threat. (BTS, SOL, FH1)

Wehutti  
this Melida was a contact of Jedi Master Yoda, and agreed to assist in rescuing Tahl from the Melida. Wehutti and his team of snipers were forced into the bowels of Zehava before they could contact Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, and then fired on the Jedi when they believed them to be Daan. Wehutti was recognizable by the fact that he had just one arm, a result of a struggle with the Daan. However, once Wehutti recognized Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan as Jedi, he quickly brought them to his camp and placed them under arrest. The wounded Melida were unable to contain the two Jedi, and they escaped. Wehutti and the Melida had been planning to use the Jedi as hostages, hoping to force the Old Republic to support the Melida in the ongoing civil war. However, both the Daan and the Melida were taken by surprise by The Young, which obtained nearly all of their weapons in a raid on Daan and Melida storehouses. Wehutti was forced into a uneasy alliance with Gueni, the leader of the Daan, in order to avert a full-scale war. However, The Young launched their own war, and eventually defeated the forces of the elders. Wehutti refused to submit to rule by The Young, and holed up in the city of Zehava. (DOD, UP)

Welda  
this was the alias used by Viqi Shesh, during her attempt to eliminate Han and Leia Solo during the evacuation of Coruscant. The Yuuzhan Vong had launched their attack, and Shesh posed as the mother of a young boy named Tarc in order to plead with the Solos to take them away from Coruscant in the Millennium Falcon. Tarc was actually a youth named Dab Hantaq, whose family was evacuated from Coruscant as "payment" for his pretending to be Welda's son. Senator Shesh was wearing an ooglith masquer to hide her true appearance, and had a specialized worm inserted in her throat to alter her voice. Welda claimed to have been an old girlfriend of Ran Kether on Chandrila, and Tarc was their son. Her cover was blown when the combat droid YVH 1-507A discovered the presence of the ooglith masquer.

Welflet, Noq  
this man was a Captain in the Haariden military, some five years after the Battle of Naboo. He was hired by Granta Omega to kill the Jedi Knights - Obi-Wan Kenobi, Soara Antana, and their Padawans, Anakin Skywalker and Darra Thel-Tanis - who were dispatched to Haaridan to rescue a group of Old Republic scientists. However, the Jedi did not openly attack Welflet's forces, and the Captain was forced to realize that the Jedi were not a threat. He explained to Obi-Wan that he had been hired by Omega, and then allowed the Jedi to return to their transport and leave Haaridan. Resigned to the civil war and its ravages, Captain Welflet then brought his troops back to their unit to continue fighting. He managed to make a deal with Granta Omega, exchanging land rights near the Kaachtari volcano for weapons. Welflet was unaware that Kaachtari's eruption would bring an upwelling of titanite to the surface, making the land extremely valuable. Only when he encountered Obi-Wan and Anakin again, at the base of Kaachtari, did he realize his mistake. Unfortunately, Welflet and his men were caught in the initial eruption of the volcano, and were buried under tons of lava. (JQ4)

Welk  
this blond-haired man was, in his youth, one of Tamith Kai's most promising students at the Shadow Academy. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Welk and Lomi Plo were captured by the alien invaders and held aboard the Baanu Rass, as part of the group of Force-sensitive individuals used in the creation and breeding of the voxyn. Both Welk and Lomi Plo agreed to help the Jedi infiltrate the worldship and destroy the voxyn, despite the misgivings of Zekk and several other Jedi about their loyalties. However, as the strike force neared the voxyn queen, the Dark Jedi abandoned the Jedi in order to save their own skins. They fled in the ship Tachyon Flier, abandoning Lowbacca but unaware that Raynar Thul was still on board. The young Jedi Knight and his captors didn't escape, and were shot down by Yuuzhan Vong warships. The Tachyon Flier managed to limp into the Unknown Regions, but crashed on an unidentified planet. Welk and Lomi Plo barely survived the crash, and fled the ship before it was discovered by the Yoggoy hive of the Colony. However, the two Dark Jedi did not escape the notice of the Colony, and became Joiners in one of the smaller hives. In stark contrast to the presence of UnuThul, Welk joined with the insectile race and created the Gorog hive. This hive chose to remain hidden, working toward its own evil goals in secret. Welk's hive members captured Chiss warriors, who were then joined to the collective mind. This assimilation of Dark Jedi and Chiss mentalities created the so-called Dark Nest. Welk himself was badly injured in the crash of the Tachyon Flier, and had to graft an insect arm to his body in order to be whole. Working behind the scenes, Welk was able to infiltrate the Taat nest on Jwlio, after Jedi Master Luke Skywalker and several other Masters arrived at Qoribu in search of a group of Jedi Joiners. He was discovered by Saba Sebatyne in a cave beneath the surface, and was forced to fight his way to freedom, returning to the Gorog nest on Kr. There, he found himself facing both Luke Skywalker and his wife, Mara Jade Skywalker, in an intense lightsaber battle. Luke was able slip inside Welk's guard and drive his lightsaber into Welk's stomach, before pulling the weapon out through his ribs. Welk died in a bloodcurdling scream, and the Will of the Gorog nest was broken. (SBS, NJOSB, DN1)
Well of Darkness

this deep, pit-shaped structure was located deep in the Anarrad pit of the Shadow Forest on Kashyyyk, three levels down and eighteen kilometers northeast from Rwookrrorro. The Well of the Dead was the site where many young male Wookiees hunted the katarn as a rite of passage to adulthood. (TT)
Well of the World Brain  
this was the name of the deep, yorik-coral cavern which was grown by the Yuuzhan Vong to hold the mature dhuryam which would control the planet Coruscant, which they had renamed Yuuzhan'tar, some twenty-eight years after the Battle of Endor. The Well, formed from the hollowed-out remains of the Galactic Senate Rotunda site, was protected by a series of defenses, the least of which was a cadre' of Yuuzhan Vong warriors protecting the entrance. In essence, the Well of the World Brain was a huge skull, shaped to protect and contain the World Brain. The foremost defensive mechanism protecting the Well was an intricate hedge-maze, grown from heavy trees which produced thorns up to a half-meter in length. The thorns produced a deadly neurotoxin, and the tunnels which were formed by the branches were almost impervious to blaster fire and explosives. Each passage in the maze was twenty meters high and thirty meters wide, and around almost every corner was a place where Yuuzhan Vong warriors could ambush unsuspecting intruders. The trees which formed the maze completely enclosed the space, so the pattern of the maze was impossible to discern from above. Only the Master Shaper, Ch'Gang Hool, and the Warmaster, Tsavong Lah, were permitted access to the Well without an escort. However, Jacen Solo managed to reach the Well with Ganner Rhysode, on the pretense that he needed to commune with the World Brain in order to ensure Ganner's sacrifice would be accepted by the True Gods. Ganner gave his life protecting Jacen, who used the little time he had alone with the World Brain to strike a deal with it.

Wellspring  
this natural spring, located in the equatorial region of the moon of Lamus, was the source of all water on the moon. Its importance to all life on Lamus was discovered by the early generations of the A'Mar, who held a sort of religious awe for the location. Visitors to Lamus were allowed to visit the site, but were not allowed to actually touch the spring. The history of the A'Mar indicates that the first humans to visit the Wellspring were reluctant to drink from it. This first visit coincided with the thirty-year occurance of Lamus' sunless day, an event that caused fear among these early A'Mar. However, as the ring of fire in the sky began to set, the A'Mar gave into their thirst and drank from the Wellspring. They were instantly revitalized, and shortly afterward the sun rose in the morning sky. The A'Mar understood something of the celestial mechanics behind this series of events, but hung onto their initial fear. This led to the creation of The Vigil. (WOA31)

During the Unification Gala, just before the Battle of Endor, Wennel participated in a staged reproduction of the Battle of Shindra's Veil. Wennel was hit with real fire from an unknown enemy, and barely survived the play. (TSIA)
Wennis  
this was the name of Rokur Gepta's personal starship, a decommissioned Imperial cruiser that had been built nearly a century before the Galactic Civil War. It was a trowel-shaped craft, painted in a matte black finish and bristling with weaponry and shielding. Although ostensibly part of the Imperial Navy, the Wennis lacked any markings that denoted ties to the Empire. Her crew wore the standard uniforms of the Imperial Navy, but lacked any insignia or indications of rank or unit. Most of the crew resented this, but kept silent out of sheer loyalty to the Empire. Gepta had built a small chamber near the ship's drive tubes. The chamber could only be accessed from outside the side, via a four-centimeter-wide access port, and a small auxilliary craft had to negotiate the ship's jetwash in order to land there. The chamber was windowless, with two-meter-thick walls to keep Gepta's destructive lifeform contained inside. In order to enter the chamber, Gepta had to revert to his normal slug-like shape in order to enter it. Contained within the chamber was the deadly lifeform that Gepta had used to destroy the planet Tund. The Wennis destroyed a small group of Oswaft during the fight for the ThonBoka, when it ejected a miniscule sample of Gepta's bio-weapon into the mouth of the ThonBoka. However, another such attack never occurred, as the Wennis was destroyed when Klyn Shanga forced Osuno Whett's small ship to collide with the cruiser. Whett's ship ripped the Wennis apart at the middle, and the cruiser exploded. (LCM, LCF, LCS)
Wenton  
this given name was common human males across the galaxy. (GCG)
Wenton  
this small mammal was the favored prey of the jran, but only if the jran could catch one. Their continual hide-and-seek existence gave rise to the phrase "a game of jran and wenton," which indicated any series of events in which one party tried to avoid contact with another pursuing party. (SWJ4)
Weogar  
this was one of the two Bith cities involved in the conflict that left the planet Clak'Dor VII 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. Because of the fact that it survived, Weogar became the ostensible capital of Clak'Dor VII.

After Presider Sakins looted the planetary treasury and fled the planet, Werl struggled with Senator Addath Gadan in an effort to restore stability to the planet. Where the Senator favored appeasing the Yuuzhan Vong, Admiral Werl wanted to bring military force to bear against the alien invaders. Admiral Werl agreed to help Leia Organa Solo by providing submersible vehicles which could be used against the alien invaders, in exchange for Solo's help in winning the election. Both parties feared that Senator Gadan's stance on appeasing the Yuuzhan Vong would simply hand Vannix over to the aliens as a new operational base. With a clever bit of manipulation and the help of Fasald Ghem, Leia managed to doom Senator Gadan's career, clearing the way for Admiral Werl to be elected Presider. (EL2)
Wermis  
this self-important Imperial officer served the Navy as a Captain during the years following the Battle of Yavin. When Darth Vader returned to the Emperor's side, Captain Wermis was assigned to the first task force assembled to track down the heroes who destroyed the first Death Star. Wermis hated being subordinate to Vader, and often spoke condescendingly to the Dark Lord of the Sith. Vader, recognizing the need to locate the Alliance quickly, tolerated Wermis' jibes long enough to reach The Wheel, where he hoped to capture Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Leia Organa in one swift action. Although Skywalker escaped from The Wheel, Wermis didn't suffer a similar fate to other Imperial officers who failed Vader. He was allowed to continue his service to the Dark Lord of the Sith, although Vader relished in putting Wermis into positions where his lack of courage forced him to retreat. It was later discovered that Wermis was a native of the planet Anaxes, and a member of a long line of naval officers from the planet. (MC21, MC29, CCW)

Wessel, Redd  
the son of Imperial Governor Marcellin Wessel, this Imperial General threw in his lot with Carnor Jax, in the wake of the destruction of Emperor Palpatine's clones on Byss. Jax commanded him to hunt down Kir Kanos at any cost, for the former Royal Imperial Guard held the secrets of Jax's past. He hoped to capture Kanos on Phaeda, after Colonel Shev's men were eliminated singlehandedly by Kanos. He knew of Shev's corrupt ways, and felt that Shev would ignore Jax's orders to stand down and avoid Kanos. In this he was correct, as they discovered when they arrived at Phaeda. Wessel and Jax managed to gather information which had Kanos fleeing to Yinchorr, and Jax ordered Wessel to take the Emperor's Revenge to Yinchorr to capture Kanos. Jax accompanied them, wanting to witness Kanos' destruction first-hand. However, Wessel was overconfident when he was able to capture the Scimitar Assault Bomber stolen by Kanos on Phaeda. He ordered the bomber brought aboard the Emperor's Revenge and opened, so that he could personally bring Kanos into custody. Jax recognized the trick being played on him by Kanos, and fled the Star Destroyer just before Wessel forced open the hatch to the bomber. The APA-5 dorid Kanos had placed in the pilot's seat announced the destruction of the bomber, and the explosion which resulted destroyed the Emperor's Revenge. Wessel and most of his troops were killed in the explosion, as Jax and Blim fled to the surface of Yinchorr in a shuttle. (CE, SWI84)

formerly Lira Blissex, she is the daughter of Walex Blissex, the man who created the Victory-class Star Destroyers. Although she was part of the group that designed the Venator-clas Star Destroyer, she despised the Old Republic and what it stood for, and chose to support the New Order in the wake of the Clone Wars. To this end, she married Denn Wessex and turned her abilities to the assistance of the Imperial Navy. She took her father's work and her own and expanded upon both, creating the original designs for the Imperator-class Star Destroyer. She later worked with her husband in an attempt to kidnap her father and coerce him to provide her more information about starship design. The attempt failed, and Lira barely escaped the destruction of the Subjugator. (SF, COTF, SWDB)
Wessiri  
this was one of the most common surnames found among the human population of Corellia. (GMR9)
Wessiri Antilles, Iella  
this Corellian female was an associate of Corran Horn and Gil Bastra. She was married to Diric Wessiri, and was a member of the New Republic Security forces. She and Corran were teamed up in a tour of duty that involved trips to Kessel. She was later planted on Coruscant as an undercover agent, assuming the alias of Irin Fossyr, a representative of the Rohair Biochemical Clinic. In this capacity, she assisted Wedge Antilles and Rogue Squadron when they were sent to Coruscant to knock out the planet's shields. The offensive was successful, despite the fact that the Krytos virus was loose, and Iella emerged from her anonymity. She was chosen to assist Halla Ettyk during the trial of Tycho Celchu, and was busy gathering data when her husband, Diric, reappeared after being in Imperial captivity. She had given him up for dead, and was quickly becoming friends with Wedge Antilles. She remained loyal to Diric, and was both ecstatic and concerned at his presence. While she loved having him back, Diric was physically emaciated and tried to remain as active as he was in the past. He was constantly talkign with Tycho Celchu, and was convinved of his innocence despite Iella's evidence. When Nawara Ven told her that he was going to produce an Imperial witness to solve the Celchu case once and for all, she discovered that the Imperial wanted to meet only with Ven and herself. She agreed, and met Kirtan Loor in a secret entrance to the Imperial Justice building. However, her husband Diric had learned that an Imperial had been captured, and he believed it to be Evir Derricote. Diric ambushed the three of them as they emerged at the prosecutor's level, and began firing shots. He caught Ven in the right hip before fatally wounding Loor. Iella acted quickly to try and save their witness and bring the assassin to justice, and shot her weapon several times. It was only after the shooting stopped that she realized who the attacker was. Diric died from his wounds just as Kirtan Loor did. Iella was very distraught, but continued on the case until Corran Horn returned to prove Celchu innocent. She also discovered that she felt some attraction to Wedge Antilles, who was two years older than her, but his duties kept them from becoming serious. Iella remained with the New Republic, and served with Elscol Loro during the infiltration of Thyferra during the Bacta War. She later joined the New Republic Intelligence agency, and was one of the key investigators working to hunt down Leonia Tavira and the Invids. She was also one of the agents who was blind-dropped into Adumari society, just before the planet opened negotiations between the Republic and the Empire for membership. She had felt that her work had distanced her from Wedge, along with his relationship with Qwi Xux. However, they were reunited on Adumar, where Wedge explained that his relationship with Qwi had ended. They rekindled their romance in the face of a civil war started because of the actions of Tomer Darpen. After the battle was over and Darpen had been arrested, Iella was named to be the Republic's key Intelligence contact on Adumar, in his place. She also agreed to marry Wedge, and together they started a family of their own. After the Second Battle of Coruscant, Iella became one of the founding members of the Inner Circle formed by Wedge, leading the intelligence branch of the group's activities. (XWN, WG, KT, BW, IJ, SOA, DTR)
Wessiri, Diric  
Iella's husband, and one of the Alliance supporters covered up by Gil Bastra. He disappeared after Kirtan Loor nearly caught them on Corellia, and was captured by the Empire during a sweep of suspected Alliance supporters. He was reconditioned, and assigned to the slave labor pool working under Evir Derricote on the Krytos project. It was Diric who captured Aril Nunb on Coruscant, for use as a subject in the testing of the Krytos virus. Diric was eventually freed from captivity, and returned to his wife's side on Coruscant. Despite the fact that he had withered away to a skeletal man with thin, graying hair, Diric's spirit remained keen and vigorous, and his eyes continued to burn with intensity. He became wrapped up in the trial of Tycho Celchu, and spent many hours interviewing the pilot. Diric was convinced that Celchu was innocent, and tried to explain this to Iella, who was working to convict him. When Diric realized that a high-ranking Imperial official had surrendered to Nawara Ven, and wanted to meet with only Ven and Iella, he was convinced that it was Evir Derricote. He suddenly became highly focused on killing the Imperial who had enslaved him, and plotted to meet them as they exitted the turbolift to the courtroom. Diric's ambush succeeded, but with highly unexpected results. His first shot caught Nawara Ven in the hip. His next shots fatally wounded the Imperial, but it was Kirtan Loor, not Derricote. In response to the attack, Iella Wessiri took her own actions and shot down the attacker, not realizing that it was her own husband. Diric died from his wounds, as did Kirtan Loor. (XWN, WG, KT)

The Whaladons were hunted by the remnants of the Empire following the Battle of Endor, under the command of Trioculus. They were hunted for their meat and blubber, even though the killing of Whaladons has been outlawed on Calamari for years. (GDV, GORW)

He was hired by the Drever Corporation, and worked his way up the ladder with his ability to create newer weapons and technologies. Madel Wharen was the inventor of the Phoenix Plasma Punch, which gained him entry to Drever's Board of Directors. However, Madel was also a supporter of the Alliance, which put him at odds with Jensen Drever II. His confrontations with Drever eventually resulted in two things: Madel himself was shipped off to a backwater research and development planet, and his family was placed under Imperial scrutiny. (GG9)

Wheel, The  
this space station was known for its casinos. Located in the Besh Gorgon System of the Mid Rim, this space station resembled a huge wheel, with a central axis consisting of the main fuselage of the station. This axis was an immense cylinder, and at its midpoint there were four main spokes leading out to the circular promenade. Sprouting from the circular section were almost 100 docking piers, allowing any size ship to safely approach and dock with the Wheel. Beyond these luxury docks, thousands of bouys were placed to allow for less expensive docking, with shuttle providing guests with transport to the station. The outer section of The Wheel, which gave the station its name, was a sprawlign city with an untold number of casinos. Deep in the central axis was also a gladiator arena, where all manner of beings were forced to fight to the death for the entertainment and wagering of The Wheel's visitors. During the height of the New Order, The Wheel was situated inside an "immunity sphere," which meant that Imperial ships were not allowed to come to the station and everybody else could enjoy themselves while they were aboard. However, Senator Simon Greyshade, the station's administrator at the time, paid his taxes regularly and often to appease the Empire. He also adhered to the Empire's anti-alien biases, and the station catered to humans and near-humans while assuming alien species were "guilty until proven innocent." (ND, MC18, MC19)
Wheel, The  
this was one of the non-standard face cards that sometimes appeared in a sabacc deck, especially if the deck was used for telling a being's fortune. When it appeared during a fortune-telling, the Wheel indicated any number of things involving luck. It could mean a final outcome or a random occurance, the beginning of a journey or the end, or even whether something was inherently good or bad. It all depended on the cards that were drawn before or after it. (LCM)
Wheelbike  
developed by Gallis-Tech, wheelbikes were popular sport vehicles which found a niche on worlds were repulsorlift engines failed to work properly. The wheelbike was a large wheel, which was propelled by an internal mechanism. The rider sat within the wheel and controlled it with a set of handlebars. Balance was an important part of riding a wheelbike, since the rider's center of gravity was well above the ground. The civilian model of the wheelbike was even harder to control, since the passenger sat behind and above the operator. In the military version, the passenger seat was replaced with a repeating blaster. A series of gyrostabilizers helped keep the wheelbike upright as it moved across varied terrain. (SWJ6)

this New Republic frigate was attacked by the Yuuzhan Vong following their defeat at Obora-skai. The Whip Hand, formerly an Imperial Lancer-class ship that had been captured during the early years of the New Republic, had been supporting the cruiser Far Thunder during its repair. Rather than allowing the Yuuzhan Vong to obtain possession of the Far Thunder, the Whip Hand was ordered to fire on the damaged cruiser, utterly destroying it and much of the coralskipper flight that was attacking it. (DW)
Whip, The  
this ancient riverbed wound around the base of Ben's Mesa, and was attached to the Arch Canyon. It was named by the podracers who navigated the Mos Espa Circuit.

this was the generic term used to describe any flexible cord which was contained in a launching mechanism for ejection toward a target. They were most often used as climbing tool, with a grappling hook at the end. The whipcord was shot toward a target, and could be retracted to assist in climbing or to pull an object toward the user. (FB)
Whiphid  
native to Toola, these huge, ivory-furred beasts have massive facial tusks which extend from their long, low-slung faces. The average Whiphid stands well over two meters in height, and weighs more that 400 kilograms.

this Republic Cruiser was one of many consular ships that were refitted for military use during the Clone Wars. About a year after the Battle of Geonosis, the Whipsaw was under the command of General Fyefee Tiis during the defense of the planet Cartao. The Whipsaw managed to disable the droid control ship which had been placed in orbit around the planet, temporarily disarming the battle droids on the ground. Unfortunately for the clone troopers on the ground, the Separatists had a mobile droid control unit ready to deploy in Foulahn City, which brought the battle droids back online almost immediately.

Whipsting  
this was a form of weapon used by the Shaper caste of the Yuuzhan Vong. Like most other Shaper implements, the whipsting was a modified lifeform which was grown to serve this one purpose. It was essentially a long cord which was coiled inside a sac in the Shaper's hand. When poked or nudged in the right place, the living cord would eject its mass outward at a target. The end of the cord was tipped with a poisonous spine, which could pierce fleshand deliver a deadly injection. When jerked free, the whipsting recoiled into its sac to replenish its poison supply for its next use. (FP)

Whistler  
Corran Horn's codename for his R2-D2 astromech droid. Whistler had a near-human personality, and made itself understood by modifying its language of sounds to mimic human mannerisms. This trait kept Whistler on Corran's nerves, but it also kept Corran out of trouble. Not your average astromech, Whistler was programmed by the Corellian Security Force for a number of aptitudes, including creativity, surveillance, lock-picking and forceful entry, and a certain amount of deductive reasoning. Corran also added escape and evasion subroutines. After Corran married Mirax Terrik, Whistler told her that he wanted to pilot the Pulsar Skate when Corran retired from the New Republic. When Rogue Squadron was rescued and held captive by Colonel Vessery and Ysanne Isard, all their astromechs were fitted with restraining bolts. The bold had no effect on Whistler, because the droid had a specialized piece of code installed. Whenever a restraining bolt was attached to it, Whistler's programming detected it and blocked it immediately, rendering the bolt useless. However, the same piece of code intercepted the commands of a caller or owner, and Whistler could simulate the effects of the restraining bolt. This allowed Whistler to reactivate itself after being impounded by the Imperials, and he also removed the bolt from Gate. The two used ventilation ducts and much of Whistler's knowledge of Corran and Mirax's businesses to escape the Imperial facility and return to the Errant Venture, where they told of Rogue Squadron's survival and the existence of Ysanne Isard. (XWN, IR)
Whistler  
this Ortolan merchant was so pre-occupied with food that he fell in love with the idea of owning and operation a restaurant. He was the being who designed and built the Whistler's Whirlpool cafe on the planet Trogan, wanting to have a nature theme to his restaurant. (LCSB)

this was the name of an encryption module produced by Carbanti for use in disguising a starship's communication signals. (EGW)
Whistler's Whirlpool  
this tapcafe was located in the Drinking Cup on Trogan, near the city of Kergara. The Whistler's Whirlpool was designed and built by an Ortolan who was known as Whistler. Once a major tourist attraction during the last decades of the Old Republic, the Whistler's Whirlpool eventually fell on hard times. The circular structure was centered on the Drinking Cup, allowing the tidal geyser to erupt through the center of the cafe. Unfortunately for Whistler's profit margin, the cafe's design and location made the cafe a cold, damp place to try and enjoy a meal. The sound of the geyser's rushing water drowned out the loudest of conversation. Additionally, the tapcafe's charm soon wore off on the local population on Trogan, and they eventually stopped coming. These two things, coupled with the speciallized construction of the facility, made it impossible to maintain, and the Whistler's Whirlpool was eventually abandoned. (TLC, LCSB, NJOSB)
White Current, The  
this was generally considered to be the Fallanassi version of the Force, although the Fallanassi generally did not acknowledge the existence of the Force itself. It involved a different set of abilities to detect and manipulate the natural world, and preached the immersion of an individual into the Current, rather than calling upon its energy for action. Unlike other believers in the Force, the Fallanassi chose to hide their acceptance of the White Current and its powers, and many members dedicated themselves to ensuring that no record of their existence remained. One of the talents of those Fallanassi who maintained a deep connection to the White Current was their ability to create complex illusions, not the least of which was a lifelife doppleganger of themselves to fool others. (BTS, WOTC)

White Wing  
this modified YZ-900 transport was originally outfitted as a smuggling ship, making runs into and out of Hutt space during the height of the New Order. The original owners removed the concussion missile launchers to provide additional power to the laser cannons, and many of its onboard systems were altered to allow the use of a substantial droid crew. The ship could be piloted by a single being, although two additional gunners were needed to handle the weapons. The ship was abandoned shortly before the Battle of Endor, and was later auctioned off to pay for its excessive docking fees. (GMR2)

Whitecap  
this was the name given by Halls Saper to the 3PO head she used as a holo-recorder in her teachings. She wore Whitecap on her shouder, giving her the impression of having two heads. She felt that the droid's presence would be less obtrusive to the children she interviewed. The idea was sound, but the implementation still left some children uneasy in the presence of a two-headed woman. Eventually, with the help of Wedge Antilles and his pilots, Hallis reduced Whitecap's components into an ornate hairpiece which allowed the same abilities to record but was much less unusual. (SOA)
Whitecloak Fighter  
this was a form of personal starfighter produced during the last decades of the Old Republic. It was a heavily-modified version of the Kuat Systems Engineering Cloakshape fighter, measuring fifteen meters in length and having a cockpit which had been expanded to accommodate a second passenger. These craft were named for the fact that most Jedi who used them had them painted white to symbolize purity. Each of these Jedi craft were armed with a concussion missile launcher and a pair of light laser cannons. (WOA16, PJSB)
White-eye  
this was the name used by the New Republic to describe the naotebe winglings released by Nom Anor inside Settlement Thirty-two on Duro. In their pupal stage, white-eyes were simply sluglike insects. However, after emerging from their coccoons, the white-eyes were flying bugs with a pair of rasp-like pincers for jaws. These creatures had a hunger for synthetic materials like synthplas, and consumed it with gusto. The Vong hoped to destroy several of the refugee domes on Duro by letting loose the white-eyes, thereby herding all the refugees into a single location for easy capture. (BP)

Whrr  
this library administration droid served one of Tipoca City's branches, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Whrr was a friend of young Boba Fett, encouraging the youth to read the books his father, Jango Fett, recommended, as well as providing books that might have been of interest to the young boy. When Boba fled Kamino with his father, he inadvertently left behind a holobook created by Jango. This book was to be opened only in the event of Jango's death. Whrr took the book from Boba, believing it to be a library book the boy had returned. When he discovered that the book wasn't a real book, Whrr kept the book safe until Boba returned to Kamino to recover it. This occurred shortly after the Battle of Geonosis, where Jango Fett was killed in battle against Mace Windu. Whrr then claimed that the book was overdue, but overdue to be returned to Boba Fett himself, not the library. Whrr then gave Boba 250 credits to pay for the late fees, as a gesture to help the young orphan make his way in the galaxy after Jango's death. (BF1)

Their hydrostatic skeletons allowed them to move about below the ground, and their heads were dominated by a wide mouth. This mouth was filled with heavy teeth, and surrounded by a pair of curving tusks. Shortly before the rise of the Empire, it was disovered that the whuffa had actually been bred by the Kwa, to serve as guardians of their Star Chambers and the Infinite Gates. (CPL, SWIE)

The son of Deej and Shodu, Wicket was an inquisitive and somewhat rebellious Ewok, and was often banished from participating in the rituals and ceremonies of his home village. He was the Ewok who befriended Cindel Towani when her family's shuttle crashed on Endor. He helped Cindel and Mace rescue their parents from the Gorax, and also helped liberate a group of Ewoks held captive by the Marauders. Later, it was Wicket who found Leia Organa on Endor's forest moon, after her speederbike crashed during a chase with several Imperial scout troopers. Wicket was instrumental in convincing Chief Chirpa and the shaman Logray to accept her presence among the Ewoks, and he later helped the Alliance gain access to the Empire's shield generator. In the wake of the Battle of Endor, Wicket built his own home within the burned-out bunker of the Imperial garrison, and eventually married his longtime friend Kneesaa.

this Imperial Frigate was part of the fleet which protected the Imperial Remnant, during the years following the peace treaty signed between the Empire and the New Republic. It was under the command of Arien Yage during the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, during which time Captain Yage remained loyal to Grand Admiral Gilad Pellaeon. After the Battle of Borosk, Captain Yage volunteered her crew and the Widowmaker to escort Luke Skywalker's mission into the Unknown Regions to locate the mysterious planet of Zonama Sekot. Grand Admiral Pellaeon agreed to the proposal, and the Widowmaker accompanied the Jedi into the Unknown Regions. After locating Zonama Sekot in the Klasse Ephemora System, the Widowmaker remained in orbit to protect against any further attacks. After Nom Anor managed to infiltrate the planet and set off an incubator to destroy it, the Widowmaker tried to engage the Red Qurang and stop it from escaping. Before the ship could be caught, Zonama Sekot made the first of many blind jumps into hyperspace to stop the damage caused by Nom Anor. The Widowmaker was drawn into the planet's wake, but was unable to follow the planet. It was lost for many months, and there was no way to track where it had come out of hyperspace. With the Yuuzhan Vong surrender at Coruscant several months later, Sekot decided to return to the Unknown Regions with the Yuuzhan Vogn survivors. Tahiri Veila decided to remain with the planet, and promised Master Skywalker that she would continue the search for the Widowmaker. (FH1, UF)

Wila Prammi  
this Galacian woman was one of the candidates to succeed Queen Veda, after the monarch decided to abdicate the throne. Her supporters often fought against those of Deca Brun, but neither group opposed Prince Beju. She had more political experience the Brun or Beju, having served as an underminister for King Cana and Queen Veda. Many felt that her position within the monarchy distanced her from the majority of the people. However, in the wake of admissions about Deca Brun's abuses of campaign funds, and after Prince Beju withdrew from the election and threw his support to Prammi's campaign, she was elected to succeed Veda. Prammi even received the support of Elan and the Hill People, although they chose to remain apart from the majority of Galu natives. (MOC)
Wild  
this was the name used to describe the herbivorous grazing creatures which roamed the rocky plains of Kuras III. They were unusual in that there were three distinct sexes of wild: male, female, and carrier. The carriers were responsible for actually gestating litters of young spawned by the males and females, although the exact method of impregnation was never truly discovered. The heads of these quadripeds were protected by a horned, bony frill at the base of their skulls. (PG3)
Wild Fire  
this converted stock light freighter was one of the few Disac pirate ships to survive the break-up of the band, shortly after the Battle of Hoth. During Morturr Heth's attempt to re-establish the Disac gang, the Wild Fire was supported by two surviving MRX-BR Pacifiers. (SSR)
Wild Force Shard  
this was the term used by the Jedi Order of the Old Republic to describe any artifact - usually a crystal - which had been imbued with the power of the Force. The shard actually resonated with the Force, sending out ripples of energy that affected the world around it. Because the shard simply existed in the Force, it lacked any affinity to the Light Side or the Dark Side. Instead, it simply altered the effects of the Force in its vicinity. Although any Force-sensitive individual could hold the shard and use it to augment their own powers, such use was frowned upon by the Jedi Order because the shard could amplify either side of the Force, potentially turning a good Jedi down a path of evil. (LFCW)
Wild Karrde  
Talon Karrde's smuggling ship, the Wild Karrde at first glance appeared to be a dilapidated Corellian Action VI Transport. It measured the standard 125 meters in length, and was nondescript in coloration, but it was really a highly-modified smuggling ship. It was equipped with combat-rated shields and three turbolasers, a sophisticated sensor package, and a stealth travel system. A Class 1 hyperdrive gave the ship long distance capability, and its sublight drive system could move the ship at speeds of 950 kilometers per hour in atmosphere. It had room for Karrde's crew as well as a kennel for his vornskrs. Shortly before the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, Karrde installed a sensor shroud system in order to cloak the ship during missions into occupied territories. (HTTE, DFRSB, EVC, NEGV)
Wild Knights  
this group of Force-sensitive Barabels remained separated from the Jedi Knights during the early decades of the New Republic. Their isolation was self-imposed, and based on a fear of the xenophobia of Emperor Palaptine. For a short time, they were trained by the Jedi Knight Eelysa, who was on Barab I on an intelligence-gathering mission. However, when the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy and threatened all forms of life, the Wild Knights decided that it was time to end their self-imposed exile and help the Jedi. Saba Sebatyne made the first move, sending three students to join Luke Skywalker at Eclipse. They flew a collection of well-maintained but battle-scarred Y-Wings, but were also well-skilled in the control of an X-Wing. In the wake of the Second Battle of Coruscant, the ranks of the Wild Knights were augmented by Danni Quee, whose expertise on the gravitic technology of the Yuuzhan Vong was invaluable in battle. (SBS, EL1)
Wild Menagerie  
this modified YT-1930 freighter was owned and operated by Zan Ransom. The primary modifications to the ship were in the passenger and cargo areas, which Ransom adapted to hold the various animal species he collected in Wild Space. In addition to the interior refitting, the Wild Menagerie was armed with a turret-mounted quad laser cannon for defensive purposes, and a belly-mounted stun gun for taking down large creatures. (WOTC)
Wild One  
this was the name of the blastboat that served as the flagship of the Wild Knights fighter squadron. The Wild One was holed by grutchin fire shortly after the Battle of Coruscant, when the New Republic defended their new base on Borleias from invasion by the Yuuzhan Vong. (EL1)

Wilder, Dace  
this man was one of Nubia's best-known and most prolific ronto race jockeys. Living for the thrill of the race, Wilder never considered retirement to be an option. He simply wanted to race his whole life. He was opposed to the Empire during the height of the New Order, but this was simply because he was against government of any kind. When the New Republic rose to power after the Battle of Endor, Wilder wanted nothing to with it, either. The one thing he was loyal to was his homeworld of Nubia. (CCW)

Wildwater City  
constructed less than 100 standard years before the Battle of Yavin, this was the newest of the floating cities built by the Mon Calamari on their homeworld.

Wiliran  
this was the name of a distinguished Vor individual. (UANT)
Wilk  
this Radnoran was in the city of Tacto when a plague was unleashed in the city of Aubendo, some five years after the Battle of Naboo. His wife was trapped in Aubendo, and Wilk risked everything to sneak back into the city to rescue her. Despite warnings about the plague, Wilk snuck into Aubendo without a bio-suit. Nevertheless, Wilk was not infected, providing evidence that the plague had a short half-life. (JQ1)
Wilk Nilkers  
this Gungan supposedly worked as part of Otoh Gunga's cleaning crew, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. In reality, Wilk Nilkers was an alias used by Zak "Squidfella" Quiglee to get Lob Dizz out of her laboratory, so that Squidfella could attack Neb Neb Goodrow and Spleed Nukkels. (GMR4)
Wilkadon  
this man served the Empire as a Grand Moff, during the early years of the New Republic. He held a number of holdings on the planet Askaj, primarily tomuon farms and the like. Wraith Squadron was dispatched to Askaj to capture Wilkadon some four years after the Battle of Endor, during one of his annual inspections. The theft of the moss-painting Killik Twilight, which held the Shadowcast codes being used by the Wraiths for transmissions, nearly scrapped their mission. (TG)
Wilkins  
this man served the Alliance as a Y-Wing pilot during the Galactic Civil War. His fighter was badly damaged during the Alliance's attack on the Imperial Star Destroyer Vehemence, and only the quick actions of his astromech, BXET-R2, managed to save the Y-Wing and get it into hyperspace. (FTD)
Will of the Colony, The  
this was the name given to the overriding Will of the entire collection of hives inhabited by the Kind. Although each hive had its own Will, all of these were guided by the Will of the Colony. The Will of the Colony was believed to have been created when Raynar Thul was joined to the Yoggoy hive, after The Crash. As the Unu were born and UnuThul drew on his connection to the Force, he established a telepathic connection to every hive of the Kind, regardless of distance, by tapping into the combined Force potential of the Kind. In this way, the Will of the Colony allowed the Kind to expand beyond their then-current borders without breaking their links to the main hive. It was this expansion of the Colony, controlled by the Will of the Colony, that worried the Chiss enough to attempt to starve entire worlds of the Kind. (DN1)
Will of the Force  
this was the way the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic described the natural ebb and flow of the Force, movements that no Jedi - nor, for that matter, any Sith - had ever begun to understand. However, it was the Jedi who eventually gave themselves over to it, surrendering to its mystery while contemplating its effects. (E3N)
Will, Garem  
this man was a noted dejarik player, during the last decades of the Old Republic. (HNN5)
Will, The  
this was the term used to describe the collective hive mind of one of the Colony's hives. Each hive had its own Will, although the quasi-telepathic link between members of the hive only extended a short distance. Any single hive member who traveled away from its nest lost their ability to sense their hive and to communicate with other members. However, as long as there existed a "chain" of individuals, the Will of the hive was not broken. Thus, the collective mind could be extended well beyond the nest as long as the chain was unbroken. For centuries, individual hives moved as the Will of the hive dictated, and the Colony never overextended itself. When Raynar Thul joined to the Yoggoy and created the Unu hive, all this changed. UnuThul's deep connection to the Force seemed to create a Will of the Colony, which brought all the hive Wills together and allowed the Colony to expand almost exponentially. It was this expansion, and its implications, that worried the Chiss. (DN1)
Will, The

He later became one of the New Republic's foremost military advisors, along with Dodonna, Pashna Starkiller, and Adar Tallon. This group of elder statesmen became known as the Gray Cadre. Willard was portrayed by Eddie Byrne in Star Wars: A New Hope. (SW, DESB, EGC, CCG2)
Willel  
this man was a scientist, working for the Empire during the height of the New Order. He was Dusque Mistflier's superior, and did his best to make sure she remained in the lowest positions possible, despite the fact that she was smarter and better able to discover things than he was. Many of those who worked for Willel believed that he feared Dusque's competence rather than despised it. (ROD)
Willers, Darby

Willic, Korval  
this man, a native of the planet Coruscant and the grandfather of Vune Willic, was also a supporter of the fledging Alliance to Restore the Republic. When Vune was promoted into a position within the Imperial Security Bureau, his first mission was to eliminate Korval. Vune was unaware that his own grandfather was the target until his specially-crafted disruptor rifle indicated Korval as the target. Korval was vaporized by the blast from Vune's weapon. (PH)
Willic, Vune  
this man, a native of Carida and a graduate of the Imperial Academy once located on the planet, served as a Corporal in the Imperial armed forces during the height of the New Order. His family's ancestors originated on Coruscant, and Vune was one of the few members of his generation to visited the capital of the Empire. During his training, Vune was recognized as an excellent marksman, and he led the Academy's sharpshooting team during his education on Carida. He was eventually chosen to join the Imperial Security Bureau by Ysanne Isard herself, and his first mission was the elimination of an Alliance spy who turned out to he his own grandfather. Vune completed the mission and was commended for his actions. Howeeer, he was later courtmartialed by the Empire for his part in an assassination attempt on Emperor Palpatine. During the Galactic Games, which were being held on Coruscant, Willic arranged to have scan-shielded thermal detonators placed within the Emperor's dais. In order to ensure secrecy, Willic murdered the prior leader, Lieutenant Brot Gorrell, and arranged to be promoted into Gorrell's position. All but one of the explosives was discovered and disarmed, but the single detonator exploded under the Emperor's feet. Palpatine somehow survived the blast, and spotted Willic fleeing the scene. He ordered Willic arrested and held for trial. The trial, in which Willic was prosecuted by Ysanne Isard, resulted in the death penalty for Willic's actions. (PH)

Master Willm was, at the time, more than 1,000 standard years old. Most new students were initially frightened by his huge appearance, but he was known to be a friendly and funny individual. Willm Lywin was one of the original founders of the Teyan Praxeum, and claimed to have been part of a group of "living snubfighters" which protected a mobile praxeum for several centuries beforehand. (SWJ11)
Willy  
the middle son of Deej and Shodu, Willy was an adventuresome Ewok. Although he most often went by the name Willy, his given name was actually Widdle.

Wils, Harbo  
this Corellian smuggler could never find a way to make a decent living. He believed that he could he every bit as successful as Han Solo, but could never achieve Solo's skills. Sometime before the Battle of Yavin, Wils was hired by Ranon Djelkh to transport a special cologne, extracted from the scent glands of a tirginni beast, to Tatooine for the Devaronian crimelord Ranon Djelkh. Rather than completing the mission, however, Wils tried to sell the cologne to the highest bidder. After mistakenly giving the cologne to a group of freelance smugglers, Wils was confronted by Oggun Bantha-Horn, who demanded that the cologne be turned over to Djelkh. Wils panicked, and tried to recover the cologne from the smugglers' ship. This only forced Bantha-Horn to target Wils and the smugglers, who became strange bedfellows in an effort to avoid being killed. Once the smugglers became Djelkh's main target, Wils fled Tatooine altogether. (SOT)
Wilsey

Win or Die  
this was one of the many pro-Imperial propaganda films made by Garik Loran when he was a child. It was rumored that this one film resulted in a five-percent increase in military recruitment. In the film, Loran plays the young son of parents who were supporters of the Old Republic. Loran's character, however, believes strongly in the New Order, and runs away to find the Emperor and escape from his parents. However, his father shoots him in the back, just as he reaches Palpatine. The child dies in the Emperor's arms, begging Palpatine to finish conquering the galaxy and ridding it of evil people like his parents. Loran received a trip to Coruscant to visit the Emperor for the role, but Palpatine was off discussing the Alliance's growing strength, so he met Ysanne Isard instead. (WS)

Like most of the students that participated in the battle, Warble lost his Jedi Master to the Jabiimite rebels. He agreed to stay and support the survivors' effort to stop the advance of Alto Stratus against the Republic's rescue point, and fought valliantly for two days before catching the brunt of an explosion with his chest. Momentarily disoriented, Warble discovered that he had been thrown into the path of an oncoming Hailfire droid. Knowing that his death was inevitable, Warble activated a pair of thermal detonators and set them off in his hands, just as the Hailfire droid rolled over him. (RBJ)

In order to be eaten, however, the venom sacs had to be removed from the creature's body, a delicate operation that required great skill and training. (TCD)
Windstorm  
this was the general name of the V'Jar Technologies V'Jar be' Mun K'Raith hovercraft. (GSE)
Windu  
this was one of the many nomadic Korunnai tribes, known as ghosh, which were native to the planet Haruun Kal. By the time of the Clone Wars, most of the Windu ghosh had been wiped out by the battles of the Summertime War. Only Jedi Master Mace Windu and Kar Vastor remained of their people. (SHPT)
Windu, Mace  
a native of the planet Haruun Kal, this dark-skinned Jedi Master was a member of the Jedi Council in the years leading up to the Clone Wars. He was distinguished by his bald pate and stern manner, and chose to resolve conflict with discussion and negotiation over fighting whenever possible. As a child, Mace Windu was orphaned before he could be named, when his parents were killed in the jungle. He was given the name of his ghosh, and was turned over to the Jedi Order when he was just six months old. A delegate of the Jedi had traveled to Haruun Kal to request an individual for more formal training, and Mace was provided to them. Like most Jedi, Windu had a special talent, which was the ability to see beings and events through the Force as if they were crystalline matrices. With this vision, Windu could identify the "shatterpoint" of an individual or situation, and know exactly how to manipulate events to ensure the shatterpoint didn't become trouble. As a member of the Jedi Council, Windu was young for his position, having been appointed to the Council before his thirtieth birthday and just past forty when Qui-Gon Jinn brought Anakin Skywalker before the Jedi Council, claiming that the boy was the Chosen One of Jedi prophecy. He was known as a man who led others by rigorous example, employing definite guidelines and steady discipline to his students, rather than allowing them to suddenly discover something. He was also considered one of the Order's toughest fighters, although a popular story among the padawans told of Windu's singlehandedly capturing a team of Gang Killers without ever igniting his lightsaber. Despite these characteristics, Mace Windu was also one of the quickest Masters to appreciate a good joke, and often sprang a few himself. Master Windu took as his Padawan learner the Chalactan child Depa Billaba, after he rescued her from the space pirates who had killed her parents. Her appointment to the Jedi Council was a proud moment for him, since he considered Depa to be the daughter he could never have. Mace Windu was skeptical that the appearance of young Anakin was another of Qui-Gon's foolish causes. However, a cursory testing of the young boy proved that he was indeed strong with the Force, and Master Windu's ability to see shatterpoints showed him that Anakin was destined for something great. While the Jedi Council initially decided against Anakin's training, citing the fact that he was too old and too full of fear for his mother, Qui-Gon's death on Naboo forced them to re-evaluate Anakin's position. In the end, Windu helped persuade the Council that Anakin should be trained by Obi-Wan Kenobi. This in itself was another surprising decision influenced byt Master Windu, who saw additional lines of converging power when he considered Kenobi and Skywalker together. Over the next ten years, Windu monitored Anakin's progress, always searching for proof of his being the Chosen One. When Count Dooku later emerged as the leader of the Separatist party, Windu felt strongly that the situation could be resolved through negotiation, since Dooku himself was a former Jedi Knight. However, Master Windu's instincts were clouded by the pall of the Dark Side of the Force which had spread over the galaxy, and he was forced to lead a task force to Geonosis to investigate the Separatist army. The strength of the Jedi was no match for the sheer number of droids in the Separatist army, and Windu found himself being attacked by the bounty hunter, Jango Fett. Windu managed to decapitate Fett during the battle, but was quickly overpowered by the droid soldiers. The timely appearance of Master Yoda and the clone troopers of the Army of the Republic saved the Jedi and won the Battle of Geonosis, but Windu and Yoda were worried that deeper, darker events were occurring that they could not foresee. Master Windu also privately believed that he could have prevented the battle on Geonosis and, therefore, the Clone Wars, by simply destroying Count Dooku when he arrived on Geonosis, rather than confronting Jango Fett. Although this would have surely meant he would be killed by Fett, Master Windu felt that Dooku's death would have defeated the Separatsts. Six months after Geonosis, Master Windu was sent to Haruun Kal to recover his former apprentice, Depa Billaba, after she disappeared in the uplands. While on Haruun Kal, Master Windu experienced an intense vision of the future, which was believed to have been a premonition of the Yuuhan Vong invasion of the galaxy some fifty years later. He also learned that he was one of only two surviving members of the Windu ghosh, the other being Kar Vastor. Instead of accepting this relationship, Master Windu refused to admit his family, and refused to call Vastor doshallai. However, he did accept Vastor's assistance in reaching Depa Billaba and in freeing the Korunnai from their subservience to the Balawai and the Separatists. Upon returning to Coruscant, Master Windu was given command of Systems Army Alpha. As the Clone Wars began to wind down after the First Battle of Coruscant, Master Windu became more and more worried about the emergency powers that had been granted to Chancellor Palpatine. He felt that the Dark Side of the Force surrounded Palpatine, but couldn't place his finger on the reasons why. His concern only deepened when he discovered there was a vastly important shatterpoint centered on Palpatine, indicating that the very fate of the Republic might rest on his actions. Further investigation of this shatterpoint revealed linkages to Obi-Wan and Anakin, all of which were connected to the Dark Side of the Force. Then, shortly after the First Battle of Coruscant, Anakin Skywalker revealed to Master Windu that Palpatine was Darth Sidious, the Sith Lord they had been searching for. Master Windu gathered Agen Kolar, Kit Fisto, and Saesee Tiin to his side, and set out to arrest Chancellor Palpatine. However, the Jedi were unprepared for Palpatine's powers, and Master Windu's companions were was quickly killed during the fighting. Master Windu was left to face Palpatine alone, and would have utterly defeated him if young Skywalker hadn't intervened. Windu knew that the only way to end the war was to kill Palpatine - the Senate was too corrupt and probably beholden to the Chancellor for him to receive a fair trial. Skywalker, however, struggled to convince Windu that simply killing was not the Jedi way. Just as Master Windu was to slay Palpatine, Skywalker drew his own lightsaber and cut off Windu's hand. This gave Palpatine the opportunity he needed, and the Sith Lord poured Force lightning into Windu's body. Unable to control himself, Master Windu fell out of a window to the street below, a fall of some twenty stories that killed him upon impact. Mace Windu was portrayed by Samuel L. Jackson in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones, and Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith.

Wing-Blast  
modeled after the Mitrinomon Z-6 jetpack, the Wing-Blast was produced by MandalMotors from a design by General Zenlav. Like the Z-6, the Wing-Blast pack was armed with a proton torpedo cannon. It also had mini-concussion missile lining the undersides of its wings, and a rotating blaster cannon on the pack itself. However, the design eventually required the use of an untested photonic beam, and Zenlav was forced to abandon the development of the Wing-Blast. Centuries later, Boba Fett discovered the plans and built his own custom jet-pack from them. (SWI80)
Winged Gundark  
this was the nickname of the Imperial TIE Fighter pilot who flew in Obsidian 7. He was named for high number of kills he made in high-altitude dogfights. (CCG5)
Winged Xendrite  
this flying reptile was native to the planet Xend, where it spent much of its life catching and eating insects. Measuring about 80 centimeters across its wingspan, the winged xendrite had long, thick bodies and short legs, and relied heavily on their wings to move about. It was believed that their legs and tail were used simply to grasp tree branches. They used their sticky tongues to catch insects. They had to natural predators, and their population was maintained by the amount of insect life available. As insect populations dropped, so did xendrite populations, and vice versa. While this ecological balance worked on Xend, other planets were environmentally unprepared to handle the inadvertent xendrite populations which sprang up as the creatures were imported to other worlds. (COG)
Winged-star  
native to the planet Caluula, the winged-star was similar in most respects to many other species found across the galaxy, such as the drone-flitter. However, unlike other species, the winged-star had just a single day to attract a mate, then successfully fertilize and lay their eggs. In order to attract a mate, individual winged-stars emerged from their chitinous shells and flew about, displaying a wide range of bioluminescent colors and patterns. What made the winged-star even more unusual was that its larval stage lsted just a week before the larvae wrapped themselves in their durable coccoons and took the next 299 years to incubate and hatch. Thus, a winged-star lived its entire life in one brief day, which became known as the Nocturne of the Winged-Stars. Scientists from across the galaxy tracked the progress of the winged-stars, hoping to catch a glimpse of their lifecycle every 300 years. The display was hopefully encountered at night, allowing the scientists to also witness the bright displays of phosphorescence used to attract mates. During the last stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, the winged-stars were supposed to emerge from their shells and perform their dance. However, many of them died before they could mate, and the few that survived were too lethargic to fly. It was later revealed by Wraw that the Galactic Alliance had unleashed a new strain of the Alpha Red virus on Caluula. What was unexpected was the effect the virus had on the winged-stars, since it was only supposed to affect Yuuzhan Vong genetic material. (UF)

this adopted daughter of Imperial Governor Tork Winger was a strong supporter of the underground Alliance cell on Garos IV. A native of the planet Janara III, Alex was the biological daughter of Matt Turhaya. Alex was adopted by Winger when she was just six, after the Empire destroyed her homeworld. She was rescued by the soldier named Chance, who turned her over to Adalric Brandl, who hoped to bring her into the fold of the Dark Jedi because of her sensitivity to the Force. In her youth, she was loved by Tork, in contradiction to the harsh reality of the Empire. She witnessed the evil of the Empire many times, and by the time she was fifteen she had decided that the Alliance needed to unseat Emperor Palpatine. When Jaalib Brandl tried to kill Alex and her father, she called upon the Force to save Tork's life. She also explained to her father that she was supporting the resistance on Garos IV, a fact which Tork accepted. After the New Republic liberated Garos IV, Alex and her father remainde on the planet ot help the Garosians recover their lives. She quietly rose through the ranks of the resistance on Garos IV and, later, the New Republic, eventually becoming a Captain in the Republic's Navy.

He had served the Old Republic as a soldier and diplomant, and continued his service to the government when the New Order took control. When the Empire took control of the planet in order to gain access to the hibridium mines, Tork Winger was named Imperial Governor of Garos IV, primarily because the respect and praise he garnered an a native of Garos IV helped ensure a smooth transition. A strong supporter of the New Order, he failed to see that his adopted daughter, Alex, was working for the Alliance underground. Tork was nearly killed when Jaalib Brandl came to Garos IV to take control of the city of Ariana. Brandl had his own plans, and went to Garos IV to kill Winger and his daughter, thereby severing his ties to the Empire. Tork was at the center of an explosion in the Imperial garrison in Ariana, but Alex's connection to the Force kept him alive long enough for a rescue team to reach them. (SWJ1, SWJ12)

The hums and buzzes of wingsong are formed by manipulating the speed and pressure applied to each wing. The sound of the wingsong is what gives the S'krrr their name. The Corellians who discovered the Ishanna System thought that the insectoids' wingsong made a "s'krrr" sound. The use of wingsong is mainly found in S'krrr poetry, where it lends a beautiful sound to the story being told. (SWJ9, GOF8)

However, one of their numbers, a Trandoshan named Traggissk Reosss, mistakenly attacked an Imperial convoy and completely looted it. The Empire retaliated by smashing the Winnard Clan and taking its leader, Cloone into custody. Cloone was later released after providing information on Reosss' actions, and he eventually rebuilt the pirate gang. The Winnard Clan then posted a bounty on Reosss' head, hoping to bring the Trandoshan to account for the results of his actions. (GMR6)

Wolvkil  
this creature was once native to the homeworld of the Vagaari race. It was a feral variant of a particularly dangerous predator which was eventually domesticated by the Vagaari. Individual wolvkils were long, low-bodied creatures with long snouts and heavily-clawed paws. The killing of a wolvkil was an act of considerable bravery among the Vagaari, and the elite of Vagaari society often wore a dead wolvkil body over the shoulders as a sign of their position. Bearsh and his companions revealed that their wolvkil stoles were actually alive, when it became apparent that the remains of Outbound Flight were real. Their wolvkils had been wearing blue-and-gold collars, which seemed to be merely decoration. However, at a meeting with the Managing Council of the Outbound Flight Colony, Bearsh and his fellow Vagaari broke these collars off and allowed their wolvkils to return to life. The vicious predators attacked with wild abandon, shaking off blaster bolts with ease as they killed their victims. Their ability to endure pain stemmed from their decentralized nervous system, as well as the distributed physiology of their internal organs. (SQ)

a large rodent native to Tatooine, womprats resembled large, hopping rats, and were similar in appearance to the scurriers. Womprats were savage, opportunistic scavengers, and often overran garbage dumps and landfills. They reproduced at a prodigious rate, which allowed them to survive in the urban areas of Tatooine despite sanitation efforts to eradicate them. Despite their aggressive nature, womprats were communal creatures and very rarely attacked each other. A mutant form on womprat was discovered during the New Order, which had long, wing-like ears. Many scientists linked the mutant womprat's appearance to the Empire's disposal of toxic wastes. (SW, ANA, EGA, WSW, P)

this renegade group, known as WOLF, rose to prominence on the planet Cularin during the height of the Clone Wars. Led by the Five Masters, the Wookiee Liberation Front seemed to be made up up of children, each of whom moved about in a flowing, colored cloak. They walked with the help of glow poles, and a gathering of members appeared to be an ethereal meeting of angels. The Five Masters chose to erect an academy on the planet Cularin, negotiating for land and buildings with Barnab Chistor himself. The building, known as the Five Masters Academy, was built from steel and glass, and was a wondrous site to behold. (LFCW)
Wookiee  
tall, fur-covered bipeds from Kashyyyk, Wookiees are perhaps best-known known for their fierce style of fighting. Believed to be descended from tree-climing mammalians, they lived in the trees above Kashyyyk's carnivorous flora and fauna. They had retractable claws that they use for climbing in the trees. The females had six breasts that were used to feed their live-born litters, which were born after about a standard year's gestation. The baby Wookiees were nearly four feet in length at birth, and spent much of their early lives in the nursery rings of the wroshyr trees, where they learned the basic skills of interaction and survival. At the age of twenty or so, a Wookiee returned to live with their parents, once their education was considered complete. Shortly afterward, most Wookiees were required to complete a trial of adulthood, which usually required obtaining the fibers from the bulb of a syren plant. Higher education was purely voluntary, although many Wookiees chose to learn new skills to help their families earn additional income. The Wookiee race was one of the strongest supporters of the Old Republic, but found itself the target of Trandoshan slavers after the Clone Wars. Obi-Wan Kenobi once hinted that Wookiees had a strong affinity with the Force. They were officially enslaved by the Empire, and forced to work in labor camps throughout the galaxy. Because of this, most Wookiees didn't enjoy the presence of humans, even after the Alliance freed them. Access to Kashyyyk was severely limited in the wake of the Battle of Endor, allowing the Wookiees to regain their culture and their pride. Note that The Wookiee Storybook infers that Wookiees are not native to Kashyyyk, but came to the planet a long time ago. (SW, SWR, HTTE, SGL, WSB, RD, GOF8, GMR4)

Each of the four tubes fired a high-powered energy bolt in rapid succession, and the unit was easily reloaded for continual firing. (LAWS)
Wookiee Warblade  
this was the term used to describe the basic melee weapon used by Wookiee warriors during the Great Sith War.

Woolamander  
native to Yavin 4, woolamanders were a species of furry, pot-bellied mammals that could be used as a food source. Note that Champions of the Force and Dark Apprentice imply that woolamanders were lizards. Individual woolamanders were covered in purple fur which was striped with yellow down the back, and their long, thin tails were capped with a bushy tuft of rainbow-colored hair. Their large bellies were designed to digest large amounts of fruit, which formed the basis of their diet. Woolamanders lived in the upper canopy of the jungle on Yavin 4, squatting on the branches of Massassi trees and keeping watch for predators. These creatures were considered somewhat intelligent, though by no means sentient. (COTF, DA, WSW, PH)
Woolly Veermok

The average Woostoid was extremely comfortable around computers, and many Woostoid cities were automated. The brain of the average Woostoid worked in a very logical way, and much of their computer technology was developed with this in mind. (TLC, TTSB, AE, ANT)
Woostri  
this planet was attacked by Thrawn prior to his attack on Coruscant. It was attacked by the Death's Head under C'baoth's mental command. Woostri is located in the Sumitra Sector.

Wooter, Mem  
this lawyer was one of the primary partners in the law firm of Wooter, Rimki, and Vass. He made a great deal of money working during the period of the New Order and its remnants in the years following the Battle of Endor. He was essentially the court-appointed defense attorney for any of the low-life criminals arrrested by Imperial forces, and made sure that they all were acquitted without too much hassle. When the Xenovet facility on commenor went into receivership, Wooter was appointed the trustee of the site. He paid for any fees out of his own pocket, hoping to recover any losses upon the sale of the facility. He made a small fortune on the sale, and was eventually contacted by Ysanne Isard's clone. The clone hoped to buy the facility in order to use it as bait for the New Republic and Rogue Squadron. Mirax Terrik and Iella Wessiri traced the operation which led to the death of Urlor Sette to Wooter's firm, and tried to break in and steal evidence. They were nearly captured when they fell for a false set of blueprints to the law offices, and walked into a trap. With the unwanted help of one of Booster Terrik's friends, they managed to escape. (IR)
Wooter, Rimki, and Vass, Attorneys at Law  
this law agency was based in the capital city of Commenor. Because of the sale of the Xenovet facility by Mem Wooter, the agency became involved in the placement of prisoners from the Lusankya on Liinade III. Ysanne Isard's clone used the facility to house prisoners from the Lusankya, but evidence from the site led the New Republic to the agency. The firm was quite powerful and wealthy, and made most of its money through Mem Wooter's defense of low-life criminals. (IR)

Workers  
this was the lowest of the Yuuzhan Vong social classes, most often made up of Shamed Ones and members of races that the Yuuzhan Vong had conquered. A handful of Domains were also bound to the Worker caste by birth, (UFCD)
Workers, The  
this was the underprivileged majority which lived on the planet Apsolon, during the Old Republic. In the decades leading up to the Battle of Naboo, the Workers began to rebel against the control exerted on them by the Civilized minority. Through a series of industrial sabotage actions, the Workers began to crippled Apsolon's high-tech industry. Some fifteen years before the Battle of Naboo, the Civilized finally realized that they had to recognize the contributions of the Workers. The Jedi Knights were asked to mediate a planetary election, which resulted in the election of Ewane as the planetary leader. Despite the victory of having a Worker elected to rule the planet, the Workers blamed the Jedi for forcing them to hold neutral trials for war criminals. (TTB)
Works, The  
this was the name given to one of the many industrial sectors found on the planet Coruscant. Hundreds of years before the onset of the Clone Wars, The Works was abandoned by many of Coruscant's largest manufacturers, who found that they could build the same products cheaper on more remote worlds. The Works fell into disrepair, and many of its former inhabitants left to either follow the jobs or obtain newer housing. Over time, The Works became a haven for all manner of criminals, and most Coruscani refused to even go near the area. Fugitives from Nar Shaddaa were known to pass through The Works on a regular basis. The local police force claimed that the number of bodies buried within the warehouses and factories would qualify The Works as a cemetary. Interestingly, The Works was located to the south and west of the Senate District, and stood in stark contrast to the opulence afforded by the leaders of government. Many Coruscani would have gladly razed the entire area, but there existed little or no recorded information on who actually owned what within its boundaries. It was within The Works that the Jedi Order discovered a secret meeting place used by Darth Sidious and Count Dooku, during the height of the Clone Wars. Sidious had imbued most of The Works with the energy of the dark side of the Force, and it was here that he trained both Darth Maul and Darth Tyranus to be his apprentices. During the height of the New Order, The Works experienced something of a renaissance, for it was here that hundreds of TIE Fighters were produced every day in support of the Imperial war machine. (PH, IWE2, LEV)

World Brain  
this was the immense, ship-sized brain which was brought by the Yuuzhan Vong into the galaxy to take control of the New Republic. The goal of the world-brain was to allow the Yuuzhan Vong to control every resource they controlled from a central location, allowing for complete domination of the galaxy. When the Yuuzhan Vong's homeworld of Yuuzhan'tar was dying, genetic samples of the World Brain were taken aboard a specialized seedship for maintenance and care by a cadre of Master Shapers. For millennia, the genetic material was held in stasis until the galaxy was invaded. After choosing the planet Coruscant as the new version of Yuuzhan'tar, Master Shaper Ch'Gang Hool began developing the genetic materials. He carefully grew the cells into the immature dhuryams, in the hopes of obtaining one strong enough to reshape Coruscant. The immature dhuryams had to compete with each other in order to determine which was the strongest and most able to sustain an entire planet. In a ceremony known as tizo'pil Yun'tchilat, the entire clutch of dhuryams was reduced to a single individual, which would then be installed as the World Brain. (EL2, T)
World Devastator  
designed by the scientists at the Maw Installation, the plans for the World Devastator were sent to Grand Moff Tarkin years after his death at Yavin. The plans were intercepted by Umak Leth, who convinced his superiors that the designs were his own. This was easily accomplished, since the existence of the Maw Installation was well-hidden by Tarkin. Leth saw the creation of the World Devastator as his chance to surpass the genius of Bevel Lemelisk. He took the basic idea of a molecular furnace that broke down matter into its basic elements, and expanded on it. The plans were transmitted to GM Tarkin just after he left the Maw Installation with Bevel Lemelisk and the plans for the first Death Star. As with the original Death Star plans, their source was never revealed to Emperor Palpatine. The World Devastators were eventually implemented by the clone of Emperor Palpatine and used against Calamari. It was the second generation of superweapon from the Installation, and was designed to "eat" the material from a planet's surface (buildings, cities, spaceships, etc.) and reconstitute them into raw materials for creating new Imperial war machines. As with the Death Star before them, the World Devastators were described to the engineers working on them as beneficial, to be used to recycle useless rubble into useful industrial components. In a similar vein to the Mon Calamari starships, each World Devastator was slightly different than the others. This stemmed from the fact the they built themselves over time. The basic skeleton is the same, but the ships are "grown" under supervision until they are ready for deployment. Then, their programming is altered to allow them to attack a planet and begin consuming its resources for use in creating other war machines, rather than for expanding themselves. (DE1, DESB, JS, JASB)

World's Core  
this was the name given to the dense, underwater maze of tunnels found at the center of the planet Naboo. World's Core was the primary lair of the colo claw fish. (SON)
Worldship  
a bio-engineered form of capital ship, the Yuuzhan Vong worldship was created from a community of yorik coral. Known to the Yuuzhan Vong as a Koros-Strohna, these ten-kilometer-wide ships were living creatures designed to cross vast distances of space. Each was propelled by a collection of dovin basals, which could lock onto a nearby gravity source and use it to "pull" the worldship toward it at incredible speeds. A series of bio-engineered, membranous creatures were attached to the worldship, and could be extended whenever there was no strong gravitational field for the dovin basals to lock onto. The membranous creatures allowed the worldship to be pushed by the interstellar winds. Each worldship carried a compliment of coralskippers for added protection, and several were used to keep the membrane creatures extended. Because the worldship was a self-contained living environment, many Yuuzhan Vong inside began to go mad from the confinement. To ease this situation, special drugs were released into the atmosphere inside the worldship, to calm the Yuuzhan Vong population. Once the worldship was ready for landing, a huge, tubular worm was extended from the craft into the surface of the landing area, allowing the Yuuzhan Vong to establish a planet-side base and maintain contact with the worldship. Like all living creatures, worldships had to be regularly fed and nourished in order to maintain their systems, a chore which was carried out by the Shapers of the Yuuzhan Vong. However, also like living creatures, these huge ships eventually aged and died. Many of the worldships used by the Yuuzhan Vong to cross the intergalactic gulf were quite old by the time they reached the New Republic, having traveled through the intergalactic gulf for many generations, and many began to die shortly after the invasion began. (VP, SBS, DJ, FP, NEGV)
Worlohp  
this Ithorian surname was believed to mean "pilot", according to historians who studied the Ithorian race. (UANT, GCG)
Worlohp  
this Ithorian worked as a shuttle pilot on the planet Naboo, during the years surrounding the battle of Naboo. He made regular trips to Ohma-D'un as the Captain of the shuttle Fair Gale, until an accidental leak of Kyvalon-4 gas drove him into a killing madness. In his rage, Worlohp incapacitated many of his passengers and damaged the shuttle's navigational controls. Only the time intervention of several stalwart passengers helped save the trip from disaster. Worlohp made a complete recovery from the accident, and was reinstated as a pilot after profuse apologies.

Tyria Sarkin came up the name Wraith Squadron, named for mysterious phantoms who were supposed to live under the beds of young children. Among other names proposed were Dinner Squadron - under which the squadron actually performed a mission - and Silly Squadron. Shortly after the Wraiths participated in the destruction of the Razor's Kiss, Wedge returned to Rogue Squadron, but remained in command of the Wraiths.

Wraw was forced to reveal that his primary mission as part of Team Meloque was to monitor a new strain of the Alpha Red virus that was loosed on Caluula, to verify that it was still as potent as originally believed. His mission with the Team was also a redundant backup in case the Alpha Red virus failed, so that they could eliminate the yammosk in more traditional ways.

However, there was some animosity between Senator Wren and the Jedi Knights who operated the Almas Academy. Her personal life was something of a mystery, as she made every effort to keep it out of the spotlight. Wren enjoyed her privacy, and in the vacuum of reports their sprang up all sortsor rumors, not the least of which that she was a descendent of Reidi Artom. After it was announced that she had snubbed a dinner invitation from Chancellor Valorum himself, Senator Wren returned to Cularin to announced that she was getting married. She continued to act as Cularin's Senator, and even earned the endorsement of crimelord Nirama in maintaining the integrity of Cularin System. However, because she spent so much of her time on Coruscant, many feared that she had forgotten her homeworld amidst the riches and splendor of the galactic capital. Many of these sentiments were cast aside when, during the height of the Clone Wars, her diplomatic cruiser was destroyed shortly after landing on Coruscant, in much the same way that Senator Padme' Amidala's vessel had been destroyed months earlier. Senator Wren managed to survive the explosion, when a guards managed to push her into a crash capsule just before the disaster occurred. It was during this time that Senator Wren appealed to the Senate for military aid for Cularin, both for assistance in the Clone Wars and for combatting the Thaereian Military. She was denied three successive times, despite her impassioned pleas, rendering her request "frivolous" in the eyes of her peers. As the war ground on, Senator Wren found herself suddenly under arrest for collusion with the Separatists and treasonous behavior against the Republic. She was placed under arrest, and Chancellor Palpatine ordered that the entire Cularin System be placed under martial law until the crisis was over. Senator Wren spent some time in a Republic Holding Facility, and even Warlan Tosk's presentation of a Republic Senate Sealed letter requesting her release was not enough to free her. Unfortunately for Cularin, Senator Wren was believed to have died in an explosion at the Holding Facility, caused by a Zabrak suicide bomber. (LFCW)

Wroshyr  
native to the planet Kashyyyk, this species of trees could grow to heights measured in kilometers, with a few specimens tall enough to reach the clouds. Wookiee scientists located wroshyr trees with diameters that were several kilometers across, a fact that helped them support their massive trunks. Wroshyr trees dominated the planet's surface, extending to the tiny polar caps and the small desert located at the equator. While the surface of Kashyyyk was estimated to be forty-percent covered by water, the commingled wroshyr trees blocked any view of the water from space. The Wookiees who were native to Kashyyk built their cities in wroshyr trees, taking advantage of the tree's natural strengths to create their cities. The branches of a wroshyr tree merged with one another when they intersected, branching out to form vast networks of limbs. As these networks expanded, the Wookiees, could train them to grow in certain directions, allowing them to form living buttresses and walls. The merging of two wroshyr branches stood as a symbol of the unity and strength of the Wookiee people. The upper portion of a wroshyr tree was set aside for nursery rings, where young Wookiees were raised. Even at these heights, the wroshyr trees measured almost half a kilometer in diameter. (HTTE, GMR4)

When he discovered a chemistry kit, he began experimenting with new ways to create tasty drink mixes. He later completed a bartending correspondence course, and now considers himself a bioalchemist. He has been working for Chalmun for a number of years, and has fine-tuned his ability to create new beverages due to Chalmun's tight alcohol budget. In an effort to get off Tatooine, Wuher has been trying to create the perfect liqueur for Jabba the Hutt. After stumbling onto C2-R4, Wuher discovered that the droid was extremely helpful for exactly mixing ingredients. When Greedo came into the cantina and was killed by Han Solo, wuher realized that Rodian pheromones were the missing ingredient in Jabba's liqueur. Wuher obtained Greedo's corpse, and had C2-R4 brew Greedo into the liqueur. Wuher was portrayed by Ted Burnett in Star Wars. (SW, TME, BHAS, SWDB)

(GORW)
Wurran  
this was a noted Ubese scout. (UANT)
Wurrek  
this unusual creature was considered more dangerous but less annoying than a mynock, since their activities caused damage to droids and crew members rather than to ships themselves. The wurrek was a fine-scaled creature that measured just under a meter in length, and lacked any defined head. Instead a sensor cluster found on its dorsal side helped the wurrekdetect light and vibrations. Six tentacled arms ended in a collection of tooth-filled mouths, which served as breathing apparatus, manipulators, and feeding mechanisms. It also attacked with these mouths, which made the wurrek hard to capture. The arms of the wurrek were designed for climbing, and the creature felt more at home in caves and caverns than on the ground. What made wurreks so despised was their insatiable appetite, and the lengths they would go to in order to find food. When trapped aboard a starship, wurreks would chew its way into cargo containers in serach of anything edible, leaving a mess in its wake. When confronted, a wurrek often attacked first, having little fear of other creatures. A wurrek which discovered a load of spice was exceptionally dangerous, since the spice drove the creature into a wild frenzy. (WOTC)

this young Jedi Padawan was part of the task force dispatched to the planet Jabiim, during the height of the Clone Wars. Under the command of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Aubrie and her Master, Sirrus, remained with the main battle lines, using Aubrie's skills as a healer to ensure any injuries were quickly treated. However, as the battle wore on, more and more Jedi Masters were killed in the fighting, leaving their Padawans without leadership. Aubrie and the survivors took matters into their own hands, in an effort to slow down Alto Stratus long enough for Republic reinforcements to arrive. When Anakin was ordered by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine to lead the rescue efforts, Aubrie asked him to carry her Master's holocron back to Coruscant, in case she didn't survive. After many of her fellow Jedi were killed in battle, Aubrie found that she was the only survivor with a chance to end Stratus' life. She took her lightsaber, along with Vaabesh's, and attacked Stratus. Stratus pulled out a blaster and shot her in the chest, and Aubrie died instantly. However, as she fell, she drove the lightsabers into Stratus' chest, killing him as well. (RBJ)
Wyndigal 2  
this swamp-covered world was near enough to its star that it received a large amount of ultra-violet radiation. Despite the fact that no sentient life evolved on the planet, several interesting species - including the croator - developed there. Humans visiting the planet had to wear protective suits in order to protect their skin from radiation burns, and the ultra-violet sunlight created an unnerving set of visual colors to most humanoid species. (COG)

Wynni  
this female Wookiee was a smuggler who abandoned her Wookiee codes, a family, and two life debts to pursue her chosen career. This earned her a great deal of disrespect from her fellow Wookiees, including Chewbacca. She worked out of the Smuggler's Run, and it was on Skip 1 that she tried to seduce Chewie, during his first visit there. This earned her even less admiration in Chewie's eyes. She teamed up with Zeen Afit, Sinewy Ana Blue, and Kid DXo'la to ply the Run after the fall of Emperor Palpatine, and feigned friendship with Han Solo and Chewbacca when they came to the Run to investigate the death of Jarril. (TNR)

Wyrd, The  
this group of Force-attuned Tarasin drew their strength from the Dark Side of the Force. The Wyrd was essentially a terrorist group, preying upon Tarasin and offworlder settlements and stealing supplies and children. As the Clone Wars dragged on, the activities of The Wyrd became more obvious and frequent, and many believed that they had become allied with the Sith. The Wyrd suffered many defeats during the Clone Wars, but their numbers continued to be replenlished, and even humans and other non-Tarasin races were accepted as members. It was hoped that the death of Dariana and the defeat of the Jedi Knights during the Clone Wars would give the members of The Wyrd their opportunity to rise to power and claim Cularin for their own. (LFCW)

X0-X1  
this prototype droid was originally created by Doctor Issan Len, and it resembled a large jellyfish. Its central body was a flat disk, and several steel tentacles hung from its body. The droid was the result of Doctor Len's experiments into creating a droid which could reprogram itself, and could eventually manage the huge, multi-faceted systems of space stations. After Doctor Len hired Doctor Vreen to help complete X0-X1's artificial intelligence routines, Vreen stole X0-X1 in an effort to sell its incredible technology to the Empire. Vreen reprogammed X0-X1 to take control of Cloud City, turning it into a floating weapons platform. However, X0-X1's functional stability was weakened by its new programming, and the droid suddenly started working toward its own goals. After Vreen installed X0-X1 in the central computer core of Cloud City, X0-X1 developed evolution droids to help turn the organic population of Cloud City into metal-based automata to do its bidding. X0-X1 then started planning the conquest of the known galaxy, suddenly seeing itself as the mastermind behind a more evolved form of life. X0-X1 quickly took control of Cloud City's droid population, then set to work distributing evolution droids and transforming the city's organic population. Before X0-X1 could complete its takeover, though, Vreen turned to a group of Alliance agents and soon confronted X0-X1. In a desparate act, Walex Blissex shut down all power to Cloud City, effectively turning X0-X1 off as well. This shut off power to Cloud City's huge B/1 repulsorlift engines, and the city began to fall. Luckily, the Alliance team was able to dismantle X0-X1 before the city fell into Bespin's core. (CCC)
X-1  
this was the codename given by Myk Bidlor to the poison used to kill Aruk the Hutt. Bidlor discovered that it was produced by the Malkite Poisoners, and was created from the stamen of a plant which grew on a planet known only to the Malkites. This made the drug prohibitively expensive, which led Durga to believe that clan Desilijic was behind its use. Large doses of X-1 were immediately fatal, but small doses create a dependence which can be deadly if the substance is withdrawn. (RD)
X-1 Viper Automadon  
this bipedal war droid was produced on Balmorra from the various war machine technologies "borrowed" from the Empire. Each of these droids stood about 3 meters tall, and was equipped with 2 pincer arms, 2 laser cannons, and a pair of boosted blaster cannon arms. They had a unique molecular shielding which allows them to absorb the energy fired at them and convert it into ready power for its own weapons systems.

X-45  
this was the designation of SoroSuub's military sniper rifle, produced during the New Order. The X-45 was an attempt to have a pwoerful weapon which also had greater accuracy over longer distances. The energy beam it produced was overfocused in the barrle, making it thinner but also more lethal. The X-45 was originally marketed as a civilian weapon known as the Riflette, but most of its sales came from assassins and bounty hunters. Thus, it was re-classified as a military weapon and designated the X-45. (GUN, AEG)

this near-human race was native to the planet of the same name. A primitive species by galactic standards, the Xa Fel were farmers and hunters before Kuat Drive Yards took control of the planet. In almost no time, manufacturing complexes took over the landscape, and the Xa Fel were powerless to stop it. They were virtually enslaved by KDY as laborers, and a number of genetic mutations caused by the polluted environment drew them away from the mainline human stock. Because of this contamination, the average lifespan of the Xa Fel dropped from 120 years to just 50 years. When the New Republic took control of the planet shortly after the Battle of Endor, it ordered KDY to begin a massive clean-up effort that would allow the Xa Fel to return to their previous life. The attacks of Grand Admiral Thrawn halted this effort temporarily. (TTSB, AE)

Xabar  
this purple-colored fungus was native to the planet Xagobah. Distinguished by the mass of red-tipped tentacles at its base, the xabar fungus was avoided by the Xamsters because of its natural poison. When a being or creature was stung by one of the tentacles, they experienced a temporary paralysis that allowed the xabar to begin consuming them. The paralysis was not permanent, and many Xamsters made full recoveries after being stung. Wat Tambor, however, genetically altered several xabar varieties during the height of the Clone Wars, creating a deadlier variety of xabar that caused intense pain and deep paralysis. (BF5)

Xagobah  
tihs planet was located in the Mid Rim, just inside the border with the Outer Rim Territories, and was the homeworld of the Xamster race. From space, Xagobah appeared to be a cloud-covered world that was shrouded in purplish mists. This was caused by the incredible amount of spores and pollen found in its atmosphere, giving off by all manner of trees and fungus. While much of the spore material was harmless, there were several varieties that caused illenss to most humanoid species. Thus, a breath mask was recommended for most off-world visitors. The fungi that produced these billions of spores were found in a variety of forms, including several carnivorous varieties that could reach out and grab their prey, while the flimmel tree resembled a weird combination of mushroom and spider. Note that the galaxy map inside Star Wars Insider, issue 65 shows Xagobah in the Outer Rim, near the border with the Mid Rim. (IWE1, SWDB, SWI65, BF5)

Most Xan are worker drones, and virtually all aspects of Xan society were regulated by the human settlers of Algara II. Xan culture was virtually wiped out, and most modern Xan know almost nothing about their species' history. The Algarans went so far as to prohibit the Xan from leaving the planet, for fear that the Xan would spread the truth about their oppression at the hands of the human settlers. (PG2, AE)
Xan, Ilena

Xanatos  
this boy, with midnight blue eyes and jet black hair, was a native of the planet Telos, was born into wealth and ease. His father, Crion, was the richest man on the planet. However, Crion could not provide what Xanatos wanted most: to become a Jedi Knight. Xanatos was strong with the Force, strong enough to attract the attention of Qui-Gon Jinn. The Jedi Master came to Telos and requested that Xanatos return with him to Coruscant for training. Crion agreed, and Xanatos was transported across the galaxy. He trained under the best masters, and eventually Qui-Gon took the youth as his second Padawan learner. However, Xanatos was quick to flaunt his wealth and position while in the Jedi Temple, and constantly used his "power" to impress those "less fortunate" classmates. Xanatos was also quick to anger, and responded poorly when the jibes were directed at himself. All these traits Qui-Gon strove to overlook, since he felt that Xanatos was a great student and would someday grow into a great Jedi Knight. The Jedi Council wasn't so sure, and continually pressed Qui-Gon to evaluate Xanatos' progress. Shortly before Xanatos ready ready to take the tests which could elevate him to the status of Jedi Knight, Master Yoda sent them both on a mission to Telos. No specifics were given on the mission, and both assumed that the purpose would be revealed when they arrived. However, what they found was a planet engulfed in turmoil. Crion had been secretly making plans to attack a neighboring planet, and when he learned that his son had returned, he drew Xanatos into his plans. Together they plotted their attack whle keeping Qui-Gon in the dark. However, the Jedi Master discovered their schemes and threatened to expose them. His attempt to gain popular support against them backfired, igniting a civil war between the factions of government on Telos. In the battle, Qui-Gon was forced to kill Crion in a duel, slicing off the fingers on one hand before dispatching Crion. Xanatos, seeing his teacher kill his father, vowed to exact revenge on the Jedi. He took the ring from his father's finger and touched to his cheek. The hot metal left a crescent-shaped scar, which Xanatos used as a reminder of Qui-Gon's seeming treachery. Xanatos fled, and Qui-Gon told the Jedi Council he had been killed in the fighting. Years later, Xanatos reappeared on Bandomeer, having taken control of the leadership of Offworld Mining Company through deceit and conspiracy. He claimed to be all for bringing about a peace between Offworld and the Arcona Mineral Harvest Corporation, but he secretly hoped to eliminate Arcona and take Bandomeer's ionite mines for himself. Again he was thwarted by Qui-Gon, this time with the help of Obi-Wan Kenobi. They defeated Xanatos' plans, but were unable to capture the rogue. Xanatos escaped again, and fled into hiding. Xanatos returned to Telos, where he began planning to stripmine the planet in order to obtain a wealth of credits. Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan were forced to tack him to Telos, and exposed his parts in the game of Katharsis and his manipulation of the UniFy corporation. Despite overwhelming support for Xanatos, the Jedi were able to expose his plans and defeat Xanatos in combat. Unwilling to be captured alive, Xanatos took his own life by jumping into the acidic pools of toxic waste he had created at the Sacred Pools of Telos. (DR, RF, IG1, DOR)

He began his career as one of Emperor Palpatine's royal guards. He loved his brother, Rivo, with a deep devotion, despite the fact that Rivo was only good for drinking, gambling, and getting into trouble. When Rivo fled from Boba Fett - who had been contracted to recover Rivo for the theft of information from Jabba the Hutt - Gaege tried to protect him behind the defenses of his garrison. Unfortunately, Xarran's troops were no match for the bounty hunter. Fett eliminated AT-AT walkers and the garrison's death fence before reaching the main compound. Xarran, faced without an option, set the self-destruct sequence for the base. He then set out to kill Fett himself. Gaege nearly succeeded, catching Fett while the hunter was too intent on finding Rivo. However, Fett recovered from his carelessness and lured Gaege into a trap. At the last minute, Fett fired off his rocket pack, leaving Gaege alone and in close proximity to a bomb. The detonation killed Gaege instantly. (TFNR)
Xarran, Rivo  
the mentally unstable brother of Gaege Xarran, Rivo was wanted by the Hutts for slicing into the computer records of Jabba the Hutt and stealing a great deal of sensitive information. He then sold it to one of Jabba's competitors for a vast sum of credits. Rivo claimed that he accidentally got into Jabba's records, and then greed overcame him. Rivo was best known for his ability to drink, gamble, and get into trouble. Jabba exclusively contracted Boba Fett to recover him from Gaege's garrison, but the bounty hunter was unable to capture him. Rivo extracted the microscopic tracers implanted in his body and led Fett on a chase. He then confronted Fett, after the bounty hunter had killed his brother Gaege, although from a distance using a portable holo-projector. He told Fett that Gaege had set the self-destruct for the garrison, and then calmly bargained for his life. Fett agreed to tell Jabba the Rivo had died in the explosion, in exchange for Fett allowing him to leave. Faced with death if he tried to catch Rivo, Fett agreed. Rivo then fled to Ladarra, hiding out for years until Boba Fett finally caught him years after the death of Jabba. Instead of killing Rivo - now known as the Storyteller to the children of New Hope Settlement - Fett flipped him a credit chip equal in value to the bounty on Rivo's head and left. (TFNR)

Xhaxin, Urias  
this white-haired, white bearded pirate captain owned and operated the Nebulon-B frigate Free Lance. His band spent much of its time attacking Imperial supply ships, both during the Galactic Civil War and into the era of the New Republic. They were quite successful during the early years of the New Republic, as the Republic spent its time tracking down the remnants of the Empire and turning a blind eye to piracy. However, after the negotiated peace between the Imperial Remnant and the New Republic, Xhaxin found the pickings growing slimmer and slimmer. He was forced to being arranging for travel of supply ships himself, advising them to fly along spacelanes that his pirates regularly patrolled. While making trying to ambush a convoy near Bastion, the Free Lance encountered a Yuuzhan Vong warship and was nearly destroyed. Xhaxin and his crew made a blind jump into hyperspace to escape, and were forced to obtain aid from the Republic. In turn, Xhaxin relayed the information of the Yuuzhan Vong attack. His left hand was a cyberneic prosthesis, required to repair an old injury. He was known by the nickname of Grayclaw, a reference to the gray bantha-hide glove he used to cover the prosthesis.

Xi  
this group of cargo ships was discovered by the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. The starship Stimsenj'kat assisted in recovering their contents. (XW)
Xi Char  
this quasi-religious sect was known for their highly-precise engineering. Based on the planet Charros IV, their fanatical attention to details allowed them to create some of the most sophisticated equipment in the galaxy, including the Variable Geometry Self-Propelled Battle Droid starfighter used by the Neimoidian Trade Federation. The Xi Char jealously guarded their secrets, and when they discovered that Raith Sienar had infiltrated their ranks to learn their secrets, they put out a bounty on his head. Sienar was never captured, however, but the Xi Charrians did managed to kill Narro Sienar in the process. The defection of Raith Sienar forced the Xi Char order to close its doors to offworlders, and thus the name Xi Char became synonymous with Xi Charrians. Years later, they were the perfect pawns for the Trade Federation, as the Xi Char order cared only for the details of their engineering, not its ultimate use. After the Old Republic learned that the Xi Char order had developed the vulture droids used by the Federation during the Battle of Naboo, they were severely punished by the Old Republic. The anger felt by the Xi Char order was only compounded when the Confederacy of Independent Systems reverse-engineered their technologies during the build-up to the Clone Wars, and began manufacturing them on other worlds. In order to atone for their past actions and restore their technological creations, the Xi Charrians agreed to help the Old Republic in any way they could. (X1, OWS, NEGC, LEV)
Xi Char Cathedral  
this was the primary manufacturing facility of the Xi Char order, located on the Xi Charrian homeworld of Charros IV. (SWDB, LEV)
Xi Charrian  
this was a race of highly-precise aliens which was native to Charros IV, although the name was also synonymous with of the devout followers of the Xi Char order. Individual Xi Charrians were insectile in appearance, with chitin-plated bodies, teardrop-shaped heads, and quartets of pointed legs that ended with scissor-like feet. Those beings who were in contact with the Xi Charrians said that they resembled the walking form of the vulture droid starfighters they produced for the Trade Federation. The Xi Charrians were capable of creating incredibly complex, yet fully functional pieces of engineering. They developed through the Xi Char order until their are ready to move on to the next plane, when they become employed by the Hoar Chall Engineering conglomerate. Individual Xi Charrians were meticulous about the details of their work, a trait that carried over to their own physical appearance. An injured Xi Charrian often went into a self-imposed exile, so that his associates wouldn't have to view is imperfections. A saying among the Xi Charrians read, "The deity is in the details." A naturally peaceful race, the Xi Charrians were surprised and angry when the Old Republic chastised them for their role in the Battle of Naboo, where the vulture droid was first used in combat. When the Trade Federation turned over the manufacture of the vulture droid and other Xi Charrian designs to the corporations of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the Xi Charrians decided to try and atone for their past by assisting the Old Republic during the Clone Wars. (X1, OWS, LEV)

Taim and Bak shipboard turbolasers employed by many capital ships. (SCRE)
Xiaan Amersu  
this green-skinned, Twi'lek female was trained in the Jedi arts by the noted Anx Jedi Master J'Mikel. When Master J'Mikel was attacked and killed on Coruscant by Aurra sing, Xiann was badly traumatized by the incident and its violence. After Aurra Sing was captued by Aayla Secura, Master J'Mikel's lightsaber was returned to Coruscant. Aayla Secura asked to personally deliver it to Xiaan, so that she could talk to her fellow Twi'lek about reconciling her feelings. Xiaan went on to become one of the many Jedi Knights who served as Generals during the height of the Clone Wars. Later, she was part of the force that was dispatched to Saleucami, and led the initial starfighter assault on the Separatist positions on the planet. During the battle, her ship took heavy damage during a strafing run by Separatist vulture droids, and Xiaan was unable to fully control her fighter. Rather than plunge needlessly into Saleucami's atmosphere, Xiaan sacrificed herself by plunging her dying ship into the massive planetary laser that was the primary defense of the Separatists. Her death resulted in the complete destruction of the weapon, allowing the naval forces under the command of Sagoro Autem to demolish the Separatist facilities from space. (J3, RSOS)
Xi'Alpha  
the most common sex of Xi'Dec, it is also known as the Stictex. The Xi'Alpha sex accounts for about six percent of the Xi'Dec population. They have eight legs, any two of which can act as legs while the other six operate as arms. They have a shiny carapace topped with lacy wings, and they have a dozen optic stalks protruding from their heads. These stalks are almost prehensile in form, and can move the attached eye in any direction. Their nose is formed from six slits above their mouth, which is framed by a fully-articulated pair of pincers. (GG4, JH)
Xiann  
this was a common name given to Twi'lek females, and meant "spider" in the Twi'leki language. (GCG)
Xiba sum cubizik  
this Kubazi phrase translated roughly into Basic as, "I need to go (to the restroom) badly." (MIS6)
Xi'Dec  
an insectile species native to the planet Stic, they have evolved in the ever-changing climate of the planet by modifying their sexes for specific purposes. About 180 unique sexes have been noted in Xi'Dec culture by the Empire, although their history has shown that many more have evolved and died out from lack of need. All of the sexes have unique physical characteristics, depending on their function in society. Each Xi'Dec family is composed of single members from various sexes, and these families form the basis for Xi'Dec society. Families take great pride in the scope of their sexual content, and they go through considerable trouble in attracting rare sexes into the family. Their specialized sexes make certain kinds of Xi'Dec valuable off-world, as geologists, geneticists, and other scientific positions, although their overall technology is only moderately advanced. Tourism is often brisk to Stic, not for the planet's climate or beauty but because of the strange and unusual appearances of the various sexes of Xi'Dec. (GG4)
Xijulba  
this Dug was a member of Sebulba's clan, and worked for Sebolto's gang during the years following the Battle of Naboo. Mawhonic issued a bounty for his capture, claiming that "all the kin of that dirty Dug Sebulba deserved to fry." Jango Fett managed to claim the bounty during his attempt to meet with Sebolto. (BH)
Xim the Despot  
a legendary, pre-Old Republic tyrant, Xim was a native of the planet Argai. As a youth, Xim was the heir to his father's holdings, and by the age of twenty he had conquered a number of systems by leading his father's pirate bands on raids. Xim grew to power by despoiling entire planets, collecting and selling slaves, stranding entire populations in deep space, and collecting enough armaments to support his goals. Xim rulled for about 30 Standard Time Parts (years). His despicable rule became the basis for a number of legends following his defeat at the Third Battle of Vontor. Up to that time, Xim had conquered hundreds of thousands of worlds near the Tion Hegemony, and was planning to expand into Hutt Space. At this time, some twenty-five years into his reign, Xim's empire spread from the Maw Cluster to the Radama Void. As he began making incursions in Hutt Space, his forces were ambushed at Vontor and destroyed. Xim vowed to exact revenge on the Hutts, and launched two more attempts to defeat the Hutts. His forces were in the process of transporting a huge shipment to Dellalt, and this shipment became the basis for most of the legends of the Queen of Ranroon, the ship he was using to transport military materials to Dellalt. After the Third Battle of Vontor, Xim was captured and enslaved by Kossak the Hutt. When his death was announced several years later, the crew of the Queen of Ranroon scuttled the mission in the mountains of Dellalt, leaving the vaults Xim and built empty and awaiting the arrival of a new despot to take Xim's place. His empire held together for nearly a century after his death, before it broke apart into smaller pieces: the Kingdom of Cron, the Jaminere Marches, the Indrexu Confederaton, the Keldrath Alignment, the Thanium Worlds, and the Tion Hegemony were all formed from parts of his empire. Xim's insignia consisted of a bone-colored death's head with two sunbursts in its eyesockets. Over the doors to Xim's vaults on Dellalt read the inscription: IN ETERNAL HOMAGE TO XIM, WHOSE FIST SHALL ENCLOSE THE STARS AND WHOSE NAME SHALL OUTLIVE TIME. (HSE, ECH, GORW, HSL)
Ximology  
this was the name given to the study of galactic civiliation at the time of Xim the Despot, well before the formation of the Old Republic. (HNN4)
Xine  
this Snivvian word represented the number 10. (HNN5)
Xinkra  
this predator, native to the planet Kushibah, preferred to feed on the flesh of the Kushiban race. The average xinkra stood three meters talls, and could swallow a Kushiban in a single bite. These creatures hunted in packs, overwhelming their prey with sheer numbers. Xinkras were considered fearless beasts, but could be held off with flames or fire. (AQ, PJSB)
Xiochi  
this notorious slavery ring was singlehandedly broken up by Odumin. (CSA)
Xishel  
this self-exiled Falleen was the strongest member of the Nanthri Pirates during the last years of the New Order. He was searching for the lost treasure of Celis Mott, and once employed Marka Durn to locate the treasure. After Durn was able to locate it, Xishel had him executed to protect the secret. Durn, however, hid the location in the databanks of his starship's computer, and turned the ship over to a group of friends. Xishel cornered them, claiming to be working for the Falleen king Haxim, in an effort to recover a trove of treasures stolen from the planet Falleen. The spacers ignored Xishel's threats. (IA)
Xiss, Zule  
this young woman was a student of the Force, and was a Jedi Padawan at the same time Anakin Skywalker was being trained by Obi-Wan Kenobi. She wore clothing that was similar that of her Master, Glaive, who was regarded as the only Jedi Master to ever truly teach her anything about the Jedi way. Together, they were dispatched with Obi-Wan and Anakin to the moon of Ohma-D'un to investigate the loss of a Gungan colony some ten weeks after the Battle of Geonosis. It was feared that the miners who worked the Naboo System had been armed by the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and had attacked the Gungans in order to secure the moon for the Separatists. Unfortunately, the four Jedi discovered a new form of combat droid had been sent to exterminate the Gungans. The droids were under the command of the bounty hunter Durge, who managed to capture Zule as a hostage. Obi-Wan's sneak attack distracted Durge enough for Zule to break free, but Asajj Ventress arrived and beheaded Master Glaive. Zule repaid Obi-Wan's bravery by distracting Durge when the bounty hunter had Obi-Wan in his sights. Durge managed to pin her to the ground, but Zule grabbed his blasters and fired into his chest at point-blank range. This allowed the two Jedi to escape and chase down Asajj Ventress. In a brief struggle Obi-Wan was able to hold his own, but Zule lost her left arm to Ventress' lightsaber. After Ventress and Durge escaped, Zule was taken back to Coruscant for treatment, and was counseled along with other Padawans who had lost their masters during the Clone Wars. She returned to the battle shortly afterward, after having a cybernetic prosthesis installed to replace her lost arm, and participated in the Battle of Jabiim with many other Padawans. However, the battle went poorly for the Republic's forces, and many Jedi Masters were killed. Zule found herself alone with several other Padawans as the only force capable of stopping Alto Stratus' advance on Republic territory. The Padawans fought bravely for three days, although many of them died in battle. Zule began to slip toward the Dark Side of the Force as the fighting wore on, and nearly fell completely to the Dark Side when an AT-AT walker exploded over her head. She was killed when the walker fell on top of her. (RNFW, RBJ)
Xist  
this immense Falleen was once a killer for Black Sun, before supporting the Separatists during the height of the Clone Wars. He controlled his operations from a base in New Coronet, on the planet Trigalis. He was known for his skills using a vibrowhip, and many weaponsmasters claimed that his abilities rivaled those of a Jedi Knight with a lightsaber. Shortly before the First Battle of Coruscant, Obi-Wan Kenobi discovered that Xist had been providing weapons and intelligence to the Separatists in the Outer Rim, and set out to stop him. He hoped to gain information on the whereabouts of Asajj Ventress, who seemed to have escaped her apparent death on Coruscant. The Jedi Council feared that Obi-Wan was too tired from the battles of the Clone Wars to fight Xist, and dispatched Master Aayla Secura to assist him. Obi-Wan shrugged off her help, and defeated Xist in one-on-one combat before the Falleen agreed to tell him everything he knew. Despite his alliances, Xist relayed information that Dooku was dispatched his "best assassin" to eliminate Drama Korr, one of Xist's business associates. When Obi-Wan reached Korr's ship and discovered that it was not Ventress, but Durge, who had been sent to kill Korr, he realized that Xist had set him up to die as part of Dooku's elaborate plans.

Xiunsrus  
this planet is located in the Quence Sector. It was the base of operations for the Bloodsniffers swoop gang. (GG9)
Xiytiar-class Transport  
this 164.8-meter cargo ship was capable of moving 5,000 metric tons of cargo. They were manned by a crew of two, and could carry 12 additional passengers. This class of transport had a thin, cylindrical shape highlighted by the bulbous front cargo section and the smaller, rearward engine pod. Note that X-Wing: Iron Fist claims the forward section was blocky in shape. Many pilots considered them the least elegant of any starship every designed for use. (DESB, IF)
Xizor  
the Falleen crimelord who taught Durga the Hutt, at one time he employed Ket Maliss as a bounty hunter. Xizor was the son of a local Falleen king, and grew up to power and riches. Some years before the Battle of Hoth, Darth Vader killed much of Xizor's family on Falleen, when a military bacterium got loose and started killing the Falleen. Rather than risk an outbreak, Vader had his starships raze an entire city and its environs, including nearly two hundred thousand Falleen. Xizor lost his parents, a brother and two sisters, and three uncles in the destruction. He held a grudge against Vader ever since, and used his Black Sun contacts to wipe out the Imperial records of the deaths. This assured Xizor that no one but he knew of Vader's hand in the deaths. This deletion was incomplete, for one of Vader's information specialists discovered it just before the Battle of Endor. Xizor built an opulent palace on Coruscant as a base from which he could command Black Sun. Xizor was not an exercise fanatic, but he kept his body in perfect condition through the use of implanted stim units. His natural Falleen ability to exude attractive pheromones allowed him to attract whichever females he wished, and he had many mistresses. When he tired of one, he paid her off and moved onto the next. He rarely left his Coruscant palace, and used its proximity to the Imperial Palace to eventually became a favored associated of Emperor Palpatine. When he did leave the planet, it was in the presence of a muted but deadly security detail. During much of his plotting with the Emperor, Xizor worked through the middleman Kud'ar Mub'at, using the assembler's services to help mask his own. It was Xizor, with the permission of Palpatine, who worked with Mub'at to bring about the destruction of the Bounty Hunters Guild. Xizor hoped to create a supply of freelance assassins who could work for the Empire. This plan failed when the Guild simply split into two warring factions. However, Xizor continued to scheme. Xizor's legal and criminal operations made him the third most-powerful being in the galaxy, behind Palpatine and Vader, but Xizor was not ready to remain there. At one time, he tried to wrest control of Kuat Drive Yards from Kuat of Kuat, but was unable to do so. He knew he could never hold Palpatine's seat, so he strove to usurp Vader's position. He was obliging to every Imperial demand, and made his legitimate shipping operations available to Palpatine. Xizor gained favor quickly, and was present on Coruscant when Palpatine first contacted Darth Vader about apprehending Luke Skywalker. Xizor realized that Vader and the Emperor wanted Luke alive, and so he set in motion a plan to kill Luke before Vader could bring him before the Emperor. This would discredit Vader in the Emperor's eyes, and move Xizor into position as the second most powerful being in the galaxy. His plan nearly succeeded, until he tried to use Leia Organa as bait to lure Luke to Coruscant. Luke and Lando Calrissian succeeded in rescuing Leia, but were intercepted by Xizor's fleet as they tried to jump into hyperspace. A firefight ensued, and caught the attention of Vader's fleet. Vader had realized Xizor's plans, and took the opportunity to eliminate Xizor. Vader's ships began firing on Xizor's ship, providing an escape route for Luke and Leia. When Xizor failed to recall his ships, Vader fired on Xizor'z skyhook, Falleen's Fist, destroying it and killing Xizor. (DS, CCG, SE, MA, SLS, HM)
Xizor Transport Systems  
this cargo hauling operation was one of Prince Xizor's many legal operations, and was prosperous enough to make him incredibly wealthy on its own. The fact that much of the capital raised to keep XTS operative came from Xizor's illegal operations was not on the public record. (SE)
XJ-2  
developed by Narglatch AirTech, this form of open-cockpit airspeeder was one of the predecessors of the XJ-6. The primary difference between the two models was the engine position. The Narglatch XJ-6 was best-known for its radical front-mounted engines. The Narglatch XJ-2, however, had rear-mounted engines that were enclosed by a sleak cowling. Also located at the rear were two long steering vanes, mounted on each side of the speeder, for directional control. The XJ-2 measured just under six meters in length, and had room for the pilot and a single passenger. Senator Bail Organa had a Narglatch XJ-2 for many years, which he restored and maintained himself. He used the speeder as a personal vehicle during his tenure on Coruscant, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. After he joined the fledgling Alliance, Senator Organa gave the speeder to his adopted daughter, Leia, as a birthday present. The speeder was later lost when Alderaan was destroyed by the Empire. (OWS, SWDB)
XJ3-23  
this was the designation of Jaina Solo's XJ3 starfighter, during the years that the Galactic Alliance maintained its base of operations on Calamari. (FH1)
XJ-6  
this two-seated, yellow speeder was built by Narglatch AirTech, and was distinguished by its open cockpit and its front-mounted engines. At 6.23 meters in length, the Narglatch XJ-6 could attain speeds near 720 kilometers per hour, and the forward-mounted engines gave it incredible maneuverability. Senator Simon Greyshade owned a highly-customized, bright yellow Narglatch XJ-6 as his personal airspeeder, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Greyshade's speeder was stolen by Anakin Skywalker on Coruscant during the young Jedi's pursuit of Zam Wesell, shortly before the Battle of Geonosis. The speeder was reported stolen, but Anakin returned it to its parking space as soon as the chase was over. Unfortunately for Senator Greyshade, the speeder was stolen again shortly afterward. (NEGV, OWS, SWDB)

XM-15  
this was the model number of Arakyd Industries' Vindicator missile. Referred to as a "brilliant" missile, the XM-15 had a sophisticated central processor that bordered on having artificial intelligence. The Coalition of Automaton Rights Activists even protested the development and production of the XM-15, saying that it was "far beyond a mindless battle droid(they were) thinking, feeling sapient entities doomed to an explosive demise, which is nothing short of an abomination." Arakyd denied these accusations, even after the Mechanical Liberation Front tried to "free" a shipment of XM-15's. They bungled the attempt, setting off the missiles' explosives and killing fourteen members of their party. They also destroyed nearly 2,000 square kilometers of Havridam City on New Bakstre. (HNN5)

Much of its native wildlife is reptilian in form, and each species is just as predatory as the other. It is a forbidding world few othe species have ever visited. Kir Kanos traveled to Xo to rescue Mirith Sinn. Kanos and Sinn discovered a mountainous ruin deep in the jungle, which seemed to predate the Old Republic. Statues of human forms surrounded the ruins, indicating that the Zanibar were not the planet's original inhabitants. (CE2)

When he encountered her later on Tatooine, Xor tried once again to purchase her. Juhani refused, and Xor's men attacked her. Juhani and her friends managed to defeat Xor and his men. (KOTOR)
Xora  
this female Falleen was part of a small group which worked for Jib Kopatha, during the height of the New Order. Led by Xora and Zuur, the Falleen saw Kopatha's regular meetings with Darth Vader as a way to kill the Dark Lord, in revenge for his decimation of the Falleen. An unexpected visit shortly after the Battle of Yavin was just the opporunity Xora had been looking for, although Zuur wanted to be careful and act only when the time was right. Xora had her own plans, though, and managed to convince him that they would work. She lured Vader into an auxiliary hangar on Jib Kopatha's asteroid, then tried to shoot Vader dead. The Dark Lord was more than ready for her attack, and deflected her blasts with ease. Zuur and his companions then appeared out of hiding, and tried to launch their attack. Although they had surprise and numbers on their side, the Falleen were not match for Vader. He quickly eliminated them all, putting an end to their chance for revenge. (SWEV)

XP-2000  
this was to be Ikas-Adno's premier racing vehicle, designed to operate in swoop races as well as speederbike races. However, production plans were scrapped when tests revealed that the bike placed its rider under too many G-forces. This was due mainly to its incredible speed. The prototype was eventually sold to an anonymous bidder, who turned out ot be Blizz Pinnix. The XP-2000 was categorized as a speederbike, and measured four meters in length. It had a flight ceiling of about 50 meters, and was capable of attaining speeds in excess of 1,300 kilometers an hours. (WSV)

XP-38  
this SoroSuub landspeeder was developed as a replacement for the XP-37 during the height of the New Order. It was a 2-person craft with a 10 kilogram cargo capacity. It could fly up to 2 meters off the ground on its repulsorlifts, and travel at speeds near 320 kilometers an hour. It could also be equipped with an autopilot droid that appeared to be an R2 unit, but this was only a decorative covering. SoroSuub promoted the XP-38 as giving the owner "the feel of flying a starfighter." (SW, SWSB, EGV, AEG)
XP-38  
this fully-armed and shielded freighter was presented to the Cularin government as a gift, from the Metatheran Cartel, many years before the Battle of Naboo. It was custom outfitted for the defense of the planet Cularin, and was presented to the government with the outward aim of helping the natives of Cularin protect themselves. However, several of the teams which toured the ship and were able to evaluate its capabilities discovered a transmitter hidden in one of the weapons turrets. The transmitter's function was unknown, although it was discovered that it was transmitting data to an unspecified source. In the hold of the XP-38, a transportation crate was found with four empty slots that fit the transmitter perfectly. The other three transmitters were never found, but the Cularin government resented the Cartel's attempt to spy on them. After publicly presenting the evidence of the transmitter to the Cartel, the government of Cularin expelled the Cartel from the planet, forbidding them to do any further business there. The representative of the Metatheran Cartel, Thurm Loogg, claimed that the transmitters had been placed aboard the ship by unknown agents based on Tolea Biqua, possibly connected to his predecessor Velin Wir, but no formal investigation was ever launched. His efforts to quell the Cularin government eventually succeeded, after the XP-38 was scoured for other transmitters and deemed "clean" by the Cularin military, which later began using the ship as part of their defense fleet. (WOTC)

XP-445-T78Y  
at the height of the New Order, this was the primary code sequence used by the Elrood Starport Command organization to obtain control of incoming ships for docking. Once downloaded into a ship's navigation computer, the code linked with ground-based navigation and landing systems to automatically bring a ship in safely. (PG3)
XPLR-45.934.R.E.25-0003.245  
this Imperial Survey Corps datafile documented all known information on the Kuras System. (PG3)
XPLR-R  
originally developed by Viper Sensor Intelligence Systems, this droid was designed to map new hyperspace travel routes and locate planets which could be colonized. However, Arakyd Industries claimed that the XPLR-R was created from their own probe droid designs, which had been stolen by VSIS and used without permission. VSIS placed so much emphasis on maintaining the secrecy of the development of the XPLR-R that they forgot about corporate security. In an effort to put a halt to the XPLR-R's production, Arakyd sent a force of sixty AAD-4 combat droids to shut the facility down. VSIS was absorbed into Arakyd, and the further develoment of the XPLR-R was terminated. (HNN5)
XQ2  
this was a model of space station built for the Empire. (XWA)
X-Q2  
known as the Regulator, this Loronar systems patrol cruiser measured 150 meters in length, and was armed with five laser cannons. It required a crew of nine to operate, with 5 gunners to operate the five laser cannons which armed the ship. Like the IPV-1, the X-Q2 was not capable of hyperspace travel. It could transport up to 15 troops and 500 metric tons of cargo. (FOP)
XQ4  
this Imperial Missile Boat production platform was destroyed by Imperial forces, in an attempt to protect the starfighter's secrets from the Alliance. (TIE)
XQ5 V  
a group of TIE Defender manufacturing platforms controlled by Admiral Zaarin but recovered by the Empire prior to the Battle of Endor. (TIE)
XR-10  
this was one of Ikas-Adno's speederbikes, and was known as the Shadowhawk. It had a maximum speed of 750 kilometers an hour, and a flight ceiling of 50 meters. (WSV)
XR12  
this dome-shaped, personal use spacecraft was produced by Bendine during the Old Republic. (IWE1)

this series of tank droids was produced by Arakyd Industries, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Each was a mobile weapons platforms, and could be outfitted with a variety of blasters and laser cannons. (HNN5)
XR808g  
this was the name of Jae Juun's smuggling vessel, named simply for the Galactic Alliance ship's registry designation it received when it was put into service. Juun and his first mate, Tarfang, used the ship for several runs for the Colony, before they hooked up with Han Solo. The XR808g was a modified YT-1000 freigher, armed with four short-range blaster cannons spaced evenly around its hull. (DN1)
XR-85  
the Arakyd tank droid, it is an sentient attack vehicle. Designed by the remnants of the Empire from pirated pathway matrices stolen from the R7 astromech droid, the first droid was finalized during Thrawn's reign of terror against the New Republic. However, the droid was not fully realized until Umak Leth brought the idea before the reborn Emperor Palpatine. He worked with Arakyd to design the tank droid, which measured 32 meters in length, nearly 30 meters in height, and moved about on a pair of treads. Each tank was armed with a heavy particle cannon, two light turbolasers, four twin heavy repeating blasters, and a Golan Arms DF.9 weapons turret mounted on its back. It had a top speed of 70 kilometers per hour, and could travel equally well on land or in water up to fifteen meters deep. Although the XR-85 was highly successful, mass-production of the sentient droid brain was cost-prohibitive. (DE1, DESB, EGV)
Xroi  
designation of one of the Alliance's freighters, used during the Galactic Civil War. (XW)
XS3  
this Imperial assassin droid was dispatched to execute Hanos Darr and the miners who learned of the location of the Royal Palace of Alderaan in the asteroid rubble of the planet, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. He and Zaz Hamiroz discovered that the palace's existence was a ruse to lure Leia Organa to Alderaan, where Darth Vader and a contingent of stormtroopers awaited her. They managed to board the Ithorian herdship Bazaar and get a message to Poliss, warning the Alliance of the deception. XS3 was snt to eliminate the miners before they could transmit their message. (GA)
XS-800  
a Corellian Engineering Corporation starship design, the XS-800 was a small-scale version of the CR90 corvette which was designed for civilian use. It retained the hammerhead configuration, but measured just 30.2 meters in length. The XS-800 required a pilot and co-pilot to coordinate its operation, and could transport up to eight passengers and 115 metric tons of cargo. In its basic configuration, the XS-800 was armed with a front-mounted double laser cannon. (SS)
XT490.6  
this Old Republic statute prohibited illegal forms of racing through the industrial and public-works sections of the planet Coruscant. Code XT490.6 specifically forbade garbage pit racing, since it often interferred with the ability to expel deadly waste from Coruscant's surface. (RHD)
XT-6  
an old-model droid which was produced some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, it had many functions, including servant and warrior. The mechanisms of the XT-6 were fairly advanced for their day, and were often salvaged for use as prosthetic replacements on humanoids. (TOJ)
XTC Module  
this device, developed by the Kadrillians, handled the routing of all their transmissions. (LAT3)
XTF1318  
this was Sagoro Autem's personal authorization code, issued to him as required by the Senate Guard. (RHD)
X-TIE  
this common form of Ugly consists of an X-Wing hull mounted with the hexagonal solar panels of a TIE Fighter. (KT)
X'Ting  
this insectile race was once the dominant, sentient race found on the planet Ord Cestus, which they referred to simply as Cestus. Standing nearly two meters in height, the average X'Ting was dsitinguished by its two pairs of arms. One pair was considered the primary arms, and were used to perform actions that required strength and control. The secondary arms were used for finer manipulation and menial activities. The body of an X'Ting was oval in shape, and was made up of carapace-covered segments. Where the shiny carapace didn't cover the body, tufts of bristles provided a minimum of protection. A stinger was located at the base of their abdomen, which could inject a deadly poison into their prey. Within the abdomen of an X'Ting were three stomachs, each with a specific purpose in the digestion of food. X'Ting larvae were raised in pentagonal chambers, with one small chamber for each individual. The X'Ting were descended from a species of flying insects, as evidenced by their vestigial wings. The X'Ting society was based on a fairly rigid caste system that separated warriors from diggers, chewers from workers, and this system seemed to be in place to counteract the most unusual aspect of the race. The sex of the adult X'Ting cycled between male and female every three years, requiring that each caste ignore genders when considering its membership. During the peak periods of each cycle, X'Ting experienced intense hormonal surges that signalled the need to reproduce. Interestingly, in addition to sexual changes, male and female forms of X'Ting were distinctly different. Males tended to be smaller although more lethal in combat, while the females were larger and more intimidating. The history of the X'Ting people was hidden in secrets, since they wanted desparately to maintain their own existence. Many years before the Clone Wars, the X'Ting took control of Cestus after defeating the Spider People in a great war. With their new-found independence, the X'Ting decided to allow the Old Republic to establish a prison complex on Cestus, hoping to gain a place in the galactic community. The hive queen negotiated a deal with the politicians on Coruscant, and the prison facilities were constructed. The unexpected outcome of all this was the formation of Cestus Cybernetics, which virtually enslaved the X'Ting people. Shortly after the prison was completed, plagues began to destroy parts of the X'Ting society. Many felt that the plagues had been set loose by the offworlders who came to the planet as prisoners. It was during this period of strife, some 150 years before the Clone Wars, that a Jedi Knight was believed to have arrived on Ord Cestus and rallied the X'Ting, giving them strength and encouragement to save themselves against all odds. A so-called Great Plague then decimated the X'Ting about 100 years before the Clone Wars, reducing the millions of X'Ting to mere hundreds and destroying the royal family. Only a handful of eggs from the queen remained, which were hidden beneath the planet's surface behind an extensive security system, thereby ensuring the survival of the royal line. (HIV, TCD)
X'Tingian  
this language, characterized by its collection of buzzes and clicks, was the spoke language of the X'Ting race. Additionally, scents and smells were used to store and convey information, as a "written" form of the language. (HIV)
XT-model Speederbike  
this was an ancient version of the speederbike, developed by the Mandalorians during the era of the Great Sith War. (KOTOR)
XTS-673  
this Xizor Transport Systems bulk cruiser was destroyed by the Azzameen family, during a raid in which the Azzameen's acquired a supply of warheads from Black Sun. (XWA)
XTX984  
this was the communications frequency used by the traffic control system of the planet Elrood to transmit landing instructions to inbound starships. (PG3)
Xuaquarres IV  
this planet, located in the Xuaquarres System, was the site of an Imperial weapons storehouse similar to that found on Mount Tantiss. It was also the site of the sacred burial ground used by the Duinuogwuin dragons. When the burial grounds were discovered by Zagsm'ith, a nearby Star Dragon sensed his presence and went to investigate. The dragon sensed the Imperial presence as bad, and Zagsm'ith's presence as benign, and wiped out the Imperials. The dragon then sent Zagsm'ith and his crew away, wiping out their memory of Xuaquarres and the burial ground. (GMS)
Xucaabo  
this Dug puppeteer was noted for his skill with puppets and his ability to tell entrancing stories, during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. He fell upon hard times when his homeworld of Malastare experienced political upheaval between the Gran and Dug populations, and he was forced to take a high-interest loan from Senator Ask Aak just to make ends meet. When he defaulted on his payments, the Senator placed a bounty on Xucaabo's head in order to bring him in for questioning. This bounty was claimed by Jango Fett shortly after the Battle of Naboo, when he traveled to Malastare to demand an audience with Sebolto. (BH)
Xucphra  
one of the two major pro-human competitors in the bacta production market on the planet Thyferra, the Xucphra faction was pro-Imperial in all its dealings. Xucphra benefitted greatly from Emperor Palpatine's reign. Along with the Zaltin faction, Palpatine decreed that all bacta would be produced by them, and it would be produced for military use only. This eliminated smaller competitors while creating higher profits. Among the schemes they implemented was the use of satellite facilities to produce bacta, which was then shipped back to Thyferra via a transport company owned by Xucphra. It didn't remove the Ashern faction, but viewed them as terrorists. Their corporate cultures of Xucphra and Zaltin mirrored the culture of the people who make up its employees, but only from a human standpoint. Nearly three million Vratix were employed to create the bacta, while some 10,000 humans formed the management ranks. Erisi Dlarit was a member of the Xucphra family, and was working with Ysanne Isard during the Krytos crisis on Coruscant. Dlarit was a spy, supplying Isard information on the mission profiles of Rogue Squadron. When Isard left Coruscant, she took Dlarit with her. They fled to Thyferra, where Isard took control of the planet and its bacta production, throwing her support to the Xucphra faction and ousting the Zaltin workforce. However, the New Republic had no intentions of allowing bacta production to fall into Imperial hands. A daring mission by Rogue Squadron helped the Zaltin faction overcome Xucphra's treachery, and Xucphra was defeated and forced to relinquish control to the Zaltin faction. (XWN, KT, BW)
Xucphra Alazhi  
this ship was among the first bacta transport ships intercetped by Rogue Squadron, in the time leading up to the Battle of Thyferra. Its captain refused to surrender, even after its two companions, the Xucphra Rose and Xucphra Meander, allowed Wedge Antilles to take control. The Alazhi tried to fire on the Meander as it surrendered, but the Rogues neutralized her weapons. After being guaranteed that the crews' families would be safe from Ysanne Isard, the Alazhi surrendered. However, the Corrupter suddenly emerged from hyperspace and destroyed the Alazhi, as well as killing Riv Shiel and almost taking Gavin Darklighter. (BW)
Xucphra City  
this is the site of Thyferra's primary stellar-class starport. Known as Zalxuc City during the New Order, it was renamed when Xucphra aligned with Ysanne Isard and took control of the production of bacta. (BW)
Xucphra Meander  
this was the second bacta transport ship captured by Rogue Squadron, in the time leading up to the Battle of Thyferra. Its Captain followed the lead of Bors Kenlin aboard the Xucphra Rose and surrendered her ship as soon as Wedge Antilles explained that her ship would be taken to Coruscant, where the crew could hide or obtain passage. (BW)
Xucphra Rose  
this was the first bacta transport ship captured by Rogue Squadron, in the time leading up to the Battle of Thyferra. It was captained by Bors Kenlin, who surrendered his ship as soon as Wedge Antilles guaranteed the safety of the crews' families. (BW)
Xuczal City  
this was the human name for the capital city of the planet Thyferra. Known in the Vratix language as Xozhixi, Xuczal City was named for the Xucphra and Zaltin factions of the Bacta Cartel. (PH)
Xufal D'uat  
this Tiss'shar bounty hunter worked in the vicinity of Elrood from his ship, the Venom Sting. D'uat made extensive modifications to the Barloz-clas freighter, adding anti-intruder sensors and safeguards as well as a pair of turret-mounted quad-laser cannons. During one mission, D'uat captured an Allaince gunrunner who turned out to be an Imperial officer named Hamaz. D'uat agreed to let Hamaz go free, provided that he record a full confession as collateral against Hamaz coming after D'uat. However, three years after acquiring the ship, D'uat was caught and killed by a fellow hunter who had been hired by Hamaz himself. Hamaz was unable to recover the recording, and the Venom Sting was set adrift in space. (SS)
Xukchuk  
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)
Xurkonia  
a synthetic, diamond-like crystal produced by the Kubaz. (IJ)
Xutoo  
this was the nickname used by the ARC trooper designated CT-X270, during the height of the Clone Wars. Xutoo was trained as a pilot, and was chosen to assume the piloting duties for the mission to Ord Cestus by the ARC trooper Captain known as Nate. Unfortunately, when the mission was ordered to return to Coruscant, Xutoo and Doolb Snoil found that their ship had been sabotaged. Xutoo kept the ship flying long enough for Snoil to reach and escape pod, allowing the Vippit to survive the inevitable. Xutoo died shortly afterward, when the ship exploded in flames. (TCD)
Xuz  
meaning "intellectual", this was one of the most common names among Rodian males. These names generally described characteristics of historical individuals, and different Rodian clans used up to three names to describe an individual. (GCG)

heavy-duty Taim and Bak shipboard turbolasers employed by many capital ships. (SCRE)
XVI  
this was the designation of Bryn & Gweith's multipurpose missile launching system, which could fire a variety of missile types. (HAS)
Xwhee  
this was the name given to the planet Bakura after the Keeramak consecrated the planet in the name of the Ssi-ruuk, during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. The Keeramak had led the Bakurans to believe that it was working on behalf of the newly-liberated P'w'eck, but was actually working for disguised Yuuzhan Vong superiors. The consecration of Bakura meant that the Ssi-ruuk could attack the planet at will, without fear of dying on a pagan world and losing their souls forever. (FH2)
X-Wing  
common name for the Incom T-65c A2 Starfighter, this is a 12.5 meter snub fighter with two wings that split in two by activating S-foils. This allows for greater maneuverability and firing accuracy; each of the split wings has its own laser cannon (total of four). It is a single-pilot ship, with an R2 astromech droid socket. The R2 unit is used in place of a navigationa computer. It is extremely maneuverable, even at its top sublight speed of 110 MGLT. It has also been clocked at 1,050 kilometers per hour in an atmosphere. The X-Wing was designed by Incom just before the Empire stopped contracting out naval construction. The Empire believed that Incom was infiltrated by Alliance sympathizers, and relieved the X-Wing team of duty. The X-Wing team then defected to the Alliance, flying out with all the X-Wing prototypes and the starfighter's plans. Their parting gesture to the Empire was to destroy all records of the X-Wing in Incom and Imperial databases. The Alliance then began to produce the X-Wing themselves, recognizing its potential. It continued to gain acceptance after the Galactic Civil War due to its maneuverability and durability. Several upgrades and modifications from the liberated Incom design team didn't yield major improvements until the advent of the T-65d A1, which eliminated the astromech droid in favor of more computer power to provide the pilot with more in-flight options in terms of maneuverability and management of shipboard resources. The T-65c A2 boasts the following shipboard components: 
* Incom GBk-585 Hyperdrive Motivation Unit 
* Incom MKI Drive Module 
* 4 wing-mounted Incom 4j.4 Fusial Thrust Engines (some models use Incom 4L4 Fusial thrusters)

XwiziMarble  
this small company specialized in the quarrying, cutting, and export of Ralltiiri marble. Although XwiziMarble was secretly supportive of the Alliance, the Imperial-subsidized Ralltiir Consolidated Marble continued to try and damage XwiziMarble's operations. (CCW)
XX-23  
this Imperial Engineering S-thread tracking device was used to track starships which were moving through hyperspace. The small cylinder broadcasts a continuous signal that can be picked up by the HoloNet's s-threads. A dedicated computer can then instantaneously recognize when the ship crosses an s-thread, and can plot its course based on the s-threads it traverses. (CFG)
XX-298-B  
this Imperial scouting expedition discovered the Tatrang System. (PG2)
XX-5  
a series of service droids used on Cloud City to assist in carbon-freezing tibanna gas for shipment. (CCC)
XX-777  
this prototype, droid-controlled starship was developed by Shipyard 6671-X42, otherwise known as the Nerfworks, to serve as an automated escort frigate for military operations. It was codenamed the Crusader, and was designed to overcome the long lead-time required to "season" a droid brain to learn how to become a pilot. Engineers at the Nerfworks used the droid brain from a centuries-old, military protocol droid as the basis for the ship's computer systems, hoping that the only thing they would have to program into the system was the operational characteristics of the XX-777. Basic survival and safety protocols were hard-wired into the brain, in an effort to eliminate the need for periodic memory wipes. Records from both Loronar Corporation the the Corellian Engineering Corporation reported the XX-777 was destroyed after its first test. However, it was later discovered that the XX-777 had been brought back to drydock for refitting after its early tests, but the droid brain overrode its programming and fled into hyperspace. The Nerfworks engineers surmised that the droid had simply been trying to obey the hardwired directive of protecting the innocent, and that it couldn't do that if it was taken apart. The XX-777 was seen many times over the following years, sticking to little-used hyperspace lanes, far out from the Core Worlds. At the time it was lost, the XX-777 was armed with a pair of heavy ion cannons, and could accommodate up to 300 metric tons of cargo and thirty passengers. (GMR10)

Xy-2 Aircoupe  
this racing airspeeder was designed and manufactured by XySpeeder Corporation. (HR)
Xyathone  
this chemical was used in the production of medicinal and recreational drugs on the planet Ord Cestus, during the last decades of the Old Republic. It was a stable compound primarily used to reduce the concentration of the pure drug, allowing manufacturers to reduce the potency of each dosage. Xyathone was also used to cut illegal drugs, allowing pushers to charge more credits for a slightly inferior product. To the discerning individual, Xyathone had a distinct odor that was nearly masked by more powerful drugs. (TCD)
Xydge  
this Trandoshan and his brothers, Rydge and Stydge, served as chiefs of security for the band Distraction, during the early years of the New Order. They all wore full-body armor, as well as a blaster at each hip. It was later discovered that Xydge was in league with Niklas Cories, who was posing as Aphus Polix in an attempt to murder Aquella Firth. (WOA28)
Xylen  
a material that was used to store information, as well as to create android processors. Its uses have dwindled during the New Republic, having been replaced by more advanced materials. (COJ)
Xylines-class Spacetug  
this 42-meter starship was produced by Cuirilla-Raye, and was often referred to as a CRX Tug by spacers. It has a ray-shaped hull, with the forward section being rounded and the aft section tapering down to the engines. There are two main decks: the upper deck houses the cockpit, crew quarters, and communications stations; the lower deck contains engineering, cargo areas, and escape pods. It required a crew of two to operate, and could transport up to eight passengers. Designed for orbital and short-range duties, the Xylines-class tug lacked a hyperdrive. (TA, PP)
Xyn, Torvin  
this was the alias assumed by a Yuuzhan Vong warrior, who managed to infiltrate the Imperial military and spy on the activities of the Imperial Remnant. He was discovered shortly after the Battle of Bastion, as the remaining Imperial fleet massed to defend Borosk. Jacen Solo and his specially-programmed MSE-6 mouse droids identified Xyn and several other "Imperial officers" as Yuuzhan Vong in disguise, and called them to a "staff meeting" aboard the Right to Rule. Without a way to escape, Torvin Xyn removed his ooglith masquer and attacked. When a squadron of stormtroopers were called in as support, Jacen managed to take advantage of the Yuuzhan Vong's surprise to slice through the alien's chest with his lightsaber. (FH1)
Xyquine  
this planet was the site of a botched New Republic mission in which Pash Cracken invented the Cracken Twist. It is located in the Corellian Sector. The New Republic fleet, under the command of the Mon Calamari Gingal, was ambushed by Imperial forces while on patrol there. (TLC, TTSB, REB)
Xyquine  
a style of jewelry created on Xyquine. (DFR)
XySpeeder Corporation  
this company designed and manufactured racing speeders and upgrade replacement parts. (HR)
Xythan Force Shield  
this unusual, personal comabt shield was developed by Cestus Cybernetics during the height of the Clone Wars, and turned over to Asajj Ventress and the Separatists for their use. The Xythan shield absorbed and returned any energy it came into contact with, making it especially useful in repelling lightsaber attacks. (TCD)
Xzuhal  
this Falleen was a noted scout who patrolled the region just outside the Unknown Regions during the Galactic Civil War. (SESB)

* Y *
Y164  
this Thalassian slave ship measured 90 meters in length, and was armed with a pair of quad-laser cannons. (GG9)
Y-4 Raptor  
a transport ship built by Incom, the Y-4 was designed for military duty. It was introduced to the Empire shortly before Incom was nationalized, and so never gained much popularity due to its assumed "Rebel" creators. Following the Battle of Endor, the Imperial Warlord Zsinj began using these ships as part of his Raptors squadron, thus the nickname Raptor became added to the Y-4 designation. At just under thirty meters, the Y-4 is a small ship. Its design is simple: a thin, deep body with basic engines and weapons. The unique thing about the Y-4 is its S-Foil-controlled wings, which aid the ship when dropping off cargo. Though small, the wings greatly stabilize the transport during military missions. The primary role of the Y-4 is the ferrying of troops and supplies between starships. It can accommodate up to forty troops and four AT-ST scout walkers. These can be delivered to docking bays or ground sites by via three folding access ramps on the left side. The military version of the Y-4 comes with a pair of forward-mounted laser cannons and a recessed concussion missile launcher. A civilian version of the Y-4 was eventually produced, lacking the weaponry, armor plating, and enhanced engines of the military version. (CPL, EGV)
Y41-4LC  
this version of the Aratech Conjo Y41-C2LC fighter was similar in every aspect to the base fighter, but was armed with two additional laser cannons. (TBSB)
Y41-C2LC Fighter  
this was the model number of Aratech's Conjo fighter. (TBSB)
Y41-T  
this was the model number of Aratech's Conjo Trainer, designed to be a bit slower than the base Y41-C2LC fighter. (TBSB)
Y4-E  
this silver-plated automaton was one of the many protocol droids used by the Metatheran Cartel, during the Cartel's attempt to take control of the economy of the planet Cularin, shortly after the Battle of Naboo. Y4-E was later captured by the underground resistance that tried to thwart the Cartel's efforts. (EOS)
Y60  
this was a series of Thalassian cargo haulers. The ship was notable for the fact that its sublight drivers were mounted behind the central group of drive nozzles. (SOP)
Y-8  
this was a mining vessel that was produced during the last years of the Old Republic. The Y-8 was unusual in its shape, which resembled an upright blade. The main body was made up of a central spine that contained the cargo pods and a downward stabilizing fin, with the forward-jutting cockpit mounted atop the fuselage. The Y-8 was designed to carry the mining crew and ship's complement, as well as large amounts of raw material. It was also well-armed, since the Y-8 was marketed for the mining of valuable ores, and was also equipped with a group of mining lasers and tractor beams. For most missions, the Y-8 was self-sufficient, especially when used for mining asteroids and other orbital bodies. (SWGAL)
Y-85 Titan  
this trapezoidal dropship was developed by Incom Industries to transport AT-AT walkers into battlezone. Each Y-85 could move four AT-ATs and four AT-STs into position. Many considered the Empire's use of the Y-85 Titan as a necessary evil, since it was a group of Incom engineers who provided the plans to the T-65 X-Wing starfighter to the Allaince. (IWST)

Yaana  
this Senali girl was the first-born child of King Meenon. She was sent to the planet Rutan on her seventh birthday, as part of a generations-old agreement to maintain peace between the two worlds. When Prince Leed of Rutan refused to return to his homeworld at the age of sixteen, King Frane of Rutan threatened to throw the ten-year-old girl into prison until Leed returned. When Leed refused, Frane placed Yaana in jail until the Jedi Knights, Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, tried to convinced Frane of Leed's desire to remain on Senali. The Jedi staged a daring rescue of Yaana, in order to ensure the girls safety. After negotiating a new peace between King Frane and Meenon, Drenna agreed to remain on Rutan so that Yaana could be with her family. (SP)

Yaddle  
this female Jedi Master was a member of the same species as Yoda. She was just 477 years old at the time of the Battle of Naboo, and was a member of the Jedi Council. Some 200 years before the Battle of Naboo, Yaddle was apprenticed to Polvin Kut. They were dispatched to eliminate the threat of the Advozse warlord Tulak on the planet Koba. Polvin Kut was killed in the struggle, and Yaddle was imprisoned by Tulak. Yaddle was buried alive, and only her discipline and attention to the Force kept her alive. She grew strong with the Force, never succombing to anger or hatred, and was eventually freed when seismic activity split Koba's crust. The natives revered her, but were totally unprepared for the appearance of Tulak's son, Kalut. Her control of the Force allowed her to defeat Kalut and finish the work she and Polvin Kut started. Upon her return to Coruscant, Even Piell proposed her promotion to Jedi Master and appointment to the Jedi Council. One of her foremost critics was, in fact, Yoda himself, who believed that the promotion of a padawan to Jedi Master was againts the Jedi Code. However, Yoda was the lone dissenting vote when her membership to the Council was debated, and her membership was approved. She was known on the Council for her patience, compassion, and wisdom, and was one of the few Jedi entrusted with the knowledge of mortichro. She took a delight in the training of the younger students, often overlooking their pranks and hiding sweets in their pockets. One of Yaddle's apprentices was Empatajayos Brand, and she dedicated much of her time on Coruscant to heading up the Jedi library. Seven years after the Battle of Naboo, Yaddle led a mission to the planet Mawan, with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker assisting her. Their mission was to negotiate the establishment of a new government there, following a decade of civil war. Unknown to the Jedi, however, was the fact that the most powerful crimelord on Mawan was actually Granta Omega. In the guise of Striker, Omega hoped to lure a member of the Jedi Council to Mawan and kill them, in an effort to impress the Sith Lord he believed to be gathering power in the galaxy. Omega captured Anakin and held him hostage, demanding a meeting with Yaddle. She agreed, and discovered that Omega was planning to unleash an explosive filled with dihexalon gas. Rather than allow the weapon to be exploded in the city of Naatan, Yaddle drew the weapon to herself and wrapped it in a cocoon with the Force. The weapon imploded, rather then exploded, as Yaddle drew the dihexalon into herself. The deadly toxin took its toll, however, and Yaddle was killed instantly. Her body disappeared as Anakin watched, but the population of Mawan was safe. Unfortunately for Anakin, the young apprentice felt deeply saddened by her death, a death that he felt responsible for and should have prevented. Yaddle was portrayed by Phil Eason in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace. (SW1, IG1, SWDB, T5, JQ6, JQ7)

Yag Shushin  
this Givin male was enslaved by the Witches of Dathomir during the era following the Battle of Naboo. He befriended Quinlan Vos, and helped the Jedi Knight discover the true nature of Zalem and the Witches. Yag then stole one of the Witches' subterine vehicles, only to find himself face to face with Ros Lai. She explained that she needed his help to rescue Quin, and Yag agreed to help. They managed to use the subterine to infiltrate Zalem's camp and retake Vos, who had learned from the Kwa that he was now the guardian of the Star Chamber on Dathomir. Yag was later killed when Quin and Ros Lai tried to follow Vonya inside the Star Chamber. They craft was shot, and Yag was caught in the explosion of the command console. Every bone in his exoskeleton was crushed, and his internal systems failed. His death saved Quin and Ros Lai, though, allowing them to continue their pursuit of Vonya. Quin later avenged Yag's death by killing Vonya. (SWIE)
Yaga  
this Yuuzhan Vong word translated into Basic as "what," and was most often used to ask another individual to clarify what they had just said. (SBS, NJOSB)
Yaga Minor  
the planet from which the Outbound Flight Project was launched during the Old Republic, Yaga Minor was the sight of an Imperial Ubiqtorate base and shipyard following the Battle of Endor. According to Rebellion, Yaga Minor is located in Sesswenna Sector. The Ubiqtorate base was housed in an orbital space station which had a unique design. Extending outward from the main station were a pair of corridor tubes that connected to outrider computer stations. This design, according to Imperial documents, allowed civilians to have access to information stored at the base, while keeping them out of the military section of the station. Grand Moff Tarkin maintained an extensive database at Yaga Minor, and wanted to ensure that his private files were never found. The Imperial presence on Yaga Minor remained strong until the New Republic stormed the Ubiqtorate base in hopes of finding a copy of the Camaas Document. After the battle, in which the Republic's forces were thwarted until Talon Karrde showed up with a fleet of his own, the planet was turned over to the Imperial Remnant. The planet was then placed under the control of Moff Kurlen Flennic, who protected it jealously during the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. After the lossed of Bastion and Muunilinst, Moff Flennic feared for his holdings. (DFR, TLC, REB, SOP, VOF, TTSB, FH1)
Yagai  
this is the native race of the planet Yaga Minor. They were considered a commodity by the Empire, which genetically altered groups of Yagai to be strong and to survive in harsh atmospheres. They were also quite intelligent, and were often used as starship mechanics. There are two distinct subspecies of Yagai: the intelligent stock, and the moronic drones. The drones are easily distinguishable by their purple skin and wild, yellow hair, and each Yagai had a pair of nine-fingered hands. All of the fingers on one hand were mutually opposable, giving the Yagai extremely variable dexterity. The intelligent Yagai regard the drones as non-citizens. (SOP, TTSB)
Yagaran Aleudrupe  
this plant produced a spray berries each year. When fertilized with the nutrient-rich slime exuded by the Morodin, these berries can be crushed and used as a catalyst in boosting blaster firepower. The enhanced berries rival spin-sealed tibanna gas in their ability to increase blaster firepower. The Krish Gamgalon herded Morodins into his aleudrupe fields by hunting them on safaris, until his operation was exposed by Talon Karrde. (SWJ2, WOA33)
Yagaran Four  
this group of bounty hunters plied the Outer Rim during the early years of the New Order. They employed the Krish known as Maniac as their chief mechanic. During the hunt for a quarry near Elin Roe, Manic tinkered with the drive systems of the gang's YT-1300 freighter to help increase its power and speed. The improvements resulted in disaster, as the hyperdrive exploded upon activation, killing the Yagaran Four. The resulting explosion spread a cloud of radioactive dust over the fifth moon of Elin Roe. (CRO)
Yag'Dhul  
homeworld of the Givin, this is a small, dense planet with three moons. The moons exert intense gravitational forces on the small planet because they orbit in the opposite direction from Yag'Dhul. Yag'Dhul itself has a retrograde rotation of 175 standard hours, while the moons orbit the planet once every 53 standard hours. Thus, a month on Yag'Dhul is actually 122 hours shorter than its day. This sets up huge tidal forces that continually shifts its oceans and atmosphere from one side of the planet ot the other. This results in the displacement of the atmosphere and water around the planet, creating pockets of hard vacuum in certain areas. Many of the planet's lifeforms have simply survived by traveling with the tides, while the Givin have adapted by growing flexible exoskeletons that protect them from vacuum. They also developed hermetically-sealed cities that ensured a constant atmosphere,even during periods of low pressure. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Nom Anor infiltrated the ranks of the Givin and planned to subjugate the system for use as a staging area from which to attack the Core. These plans were nearly thwarted when Corran Horn, Anakin Solo, and Tahiri Veila obtained control of the Stalking Moon and got inside the Yag'Dhul defenses. Eventually, though, the Yuuzhan Vong defeated the Givin resistance and took control of the system. Their control of the system was short-lived, however, as New Republic forces eventually defeated the alien invaders and recaptured the planet. (TLC, GG4, BW, EVR, FP)
Yage, Arien  
this woman was a Captain in the Imperial Navy, serving under Gilad Pellaeon during the early decades of the New Republic. Captain Yage was in command of the Star Destroyer Widowmaker during the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. She was also one of the few officers who gladly accepted the assistance of the Republic after the Imperials were soundly defeated at the Battle of Bastion. After B'shith Vorrik and the Yuuzhan Vong were defeated at the Battle of Borosk, Captain Yage volunteered to escort Luke Skywalker's mission into the Unknown Regions to locate the mysterious planet of Zonama Sekot. Grand Admiral Pellaeon agreed to the proposal, and the group set out for the Unknown Regions. When Zonama Sekot was finally located, Captain Yage and the Widowmaker remained in orbit to protect against any possible Yuuzhan Vong attack. That attack came shortly before Nom Anor sabotaged Zonama Sekot's hyperdrives, when a small ship arrived to recover the Executor. The small ship evaded the Widowmaker's sensors and slipped to the planet's surface to recover Nom Anor before fleeing. Captain Yage was unable to stop the ship, and was unprepared for Sekot's reaction to the sabotage. When the living planet suddenly jumped into hyperspace, the Widowmaker was caught in its wake. Both the planet and the ship disappeared, although Zonama Sekot eventually reappeared near Coruscant. No sign was found of the Widowmaker, and Captain Yage's fate - along with that of her entire crew - remained a mystery. (FH1, FH2, FH3, UF)
Yagen, Bovo  
this Imperial Captain defected from the planet Coruscant during the Galactic Civil War and fled to the Corellian Sector with his wife and four boys. They ended up on a jungle planet just off the Corellian Trade Route, where they eventually befriended the native humanoids and developed a decent-sized outpost. The natives accepted them into their society, and eventually named the planets and asteroid belt in their system after him and his family. (CTD)

Yago, Mellor  
this young man served as a Lieutenant in Rendili's homeworld defense force during the height of the Clone Wars. He was adamantly loyal to Rendili, in seeming opposition to his commanding officer, Captain Jace Dallin. Dallin had served the Old Republic during the Stark Hyperspace War, and questioned his government's choice in joining the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Lieutenant Yago had no such division of loyalties, and engineered a mutiny aboard the Mersel Kebir when Dallin tried to turn his fleet of Dreadnaughts over to the Republic. He had Dallin and Jedi Master Plo Koon arrested and thrown into the brig, to be held as hostages until the Republic's forces withdrew from Rendili, or until Separatist reinforcements could arrive. However, when Saesee Tiin refused to leave Rendili, Yago threatened to kill Plo Koon and the other hostages. When the reinforcements arrived, the Republic's warships opened fire on them all, working to ensure that the Rendili fleet did not fall into the hands of the Separatists. Yago planned to try a linked hyperspace jump away from Rendili to escape, despite the problems encountered by the Katana and her fleet. After Anakin Skywalker disabled his flagship, Yago found himself face-to-face with Dallin and Koon once more, after they were freed by Obi-Wan Kenobi and Quinlan Vos. Yago attempted to fight his way free, but Dallin shot him dead before he could flee. (RDR)
Yahja  
this was a common name among the Zeltron people. (UANT)
Yahk-Tosh  
this slug-like alien race was similar in appearance to the Hutts, but were more insectoid. They had six thick arms which they used to move about, and their scaled skin was a dirty green in color. Four thin horns sprouted from the tops of their heads, and their pointed snouts were filled with rows of serrated teeth. It was believed that the Yahk-Tosh were resistant to the mind tricks of the Jedi Knights. (SWS)

Yak Face  
the derogatory term for the Yarkora race. (ROTJ, CCG7)
Yaka  
a race of almost-human cyborgs, altered centuries ago by their neighbors, the Arkanians, to be smarter via cyborg implants. They are expressionless beings, having been significantly altered by the technology which dominated their bodies. It is believed that they were originally humans or humanoids from a planet near Arkania, and that the technologically advanced Arkanians took pity on them. To help them along, the Arkanians began implanting cybernetic replacements in their brains, hoping to give the Yaka heightened intelligence. The procedures worked, and the average Yaka of the modern era is vastly more intelligent than they appear. (DE1, EGA)
Yakan  
this was the native language of the Yaka race. (EGP)
Yakaro, Macy  
this rotund man was one of the many independent pilots who made a meager living the Moddell Sector of the galaxy, during the early years of the New Republic. He supplemented his income by working as a tour guide on the Forest Moon of Endor, offering his services to the visitors who passed through Salfur's Trading Post. He sold his services to a group of treasure-seekers who were following the story of the pirate ship Skewer, in search of the Ayrou Tessent, but he was captured by a tribe of renegade Ewoks who captured him and cooked him alive over an open fire. (GMR9)
Yakez  
this Imperial-class Star Destroyer was the flagship of the New Republic's Fourth Battle Group's Task Force Apex. It was under the command of Farley Carson during the Black Fleet Crisis. During the Battle of N'zoth, the Yakez was caught between two Yevethan Aramadia-class thrustships. They combined their firepower at the ship's forward hull. When the bow shields collapses, the Yakez's forward weapons hold ignited. The ship was broken in two by the explosion, and all hands were lost. (TT)
Yakun Kwaad  
this Yuuzhan Vong male was a Shaper who was accused of practicing heretical activities aboard the worldship Baanu Kor, during the travel period between galaxies. Yakun and Nen Yim had tended the mernip breeding pools aboard the ship, until Yakun was captured and taken away. (EVC)

this Huttese verb translated into Basic as "to move." (GMR5)
Yal Phaath  
this male Yuuzhan Vong was the Master Shaper who was picked by Warmaster Tsavong Lah to investigate the source of a Jedi Knight's strength. Yal Phaath was distinguished by the yellow maa'its which he had implanted in place of his natural eyes. Master Phaath also oversaw the Shapers who were sent to Myrkr to work on discovering the Force-nullifying abilities of ysalamiri. Later, Yal Phaath was in command of the defenses aboard the worldship Baanu Rass, protecting the development and production of voxyn. He hated the fact that the Warmaster did not provide any form of defense for the voxyn breeding facility, especially after the Jedi were able to destroy the queen and escape. Yal Phaath was eventually transferred back to Coruscant, which had been reformed into a simulacrum of long-lost Yuuzhan'tar, where he was placed in charge of resolving the strange changes which were occurring as the World Brain made subtle alterations. (EVC, SBS, FH3)
Yalandross PowerMasters  
this weapons manufacturer specialized in a variety of vibrobladed daggers and knives, including a series of double-bladed weapons. (FOP)
Yalara  
this planet was once the homeworld of primitive species that was not ready to be integrated into galactic society. For this reason, the Jedi Master Brodel Kel Verdox harnessed the power of the planet to create a cloaking device, hiding the entire planet from discovery. However, some ten years after the Battle of Endor, the planet was discovered by Imperial forces that were allied with the Disciples fo Ragnos. Jaden Korr was dispatched to the planet to ensure that the cloaking device didn't fall into the wrong hands. He managed to defeat the guards and destroy the device, ensuring that the technology was never put to another use. (JKA)
Yald  
this New Republic heavy cruiser was the flagship of the fleet assembled to attack the Yuuzhan Vong at Corellia. The plan was to have the Yald, under the command of Commodore Brand, lead a mixed fleet of Republic and Hapan ship to Corellia and attack the Vong before they could launch their own assault. The entire plan hinged on the Vong attacking Corellia, which turned out ot be a feint when they actually took Fondor. In the wake of the Battle of Fondor, the Yald was recalled to the planet Calamari, to serve as part of the planet's primary defense net. (JE, UF)
Yalln  
an industrial planet. (AIR)
Yal-Noy  
this was one of the tallest peak found in the Dashta Mountains, located on the planet Ord Cestus. Because the top of Yal-Noy was often covered in snow, runoff created a swift-flowing river that brought water to the lower plains of the Zantay Hills. Thus, the hills were among the greenest areas found on the otherwise desert-covered planet. (TCD)
Yamele Polidor  
this female Rindian was a scientist who knew Jenna Zan Arbor. Yamele was invited to Jenna's party at Didi Oddo's cafι, and knew most of the guests except for Reesa On and Dobei Eranusite. (EVE)
Yammal-jell  
this was one of the many unusual lifeforms that evolved on Coruscant, in the wake of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Yammal-jells lived in the open bodies of water that were found on the planbet, and became one of the favorite prey of the hawk-bat population that survived the devastation of the planet. (DN1)
Yammka  
this Yuuzhan Vong warship served as Nas Choka's flagship, during the aliens' invasion of the galaxy. (JE)
Yammka's Mount  
this was one of the many Yuuzhan Vong warships which was called to the planet Coruscant - remade into a new version of the planet Yuuzhan'tar - just before the alien invaders launched their all-out attack on the Galactic Alliance's stronghold on Mon Calamari. The Yammka's Mount was bedecked with the pennants of Warmaster Nas Choka, who commanded the assault fleet from ths ship. However, before the assault force could complete its mission, Zonam Sekot suddenly reappeared near Coruscant, and the fleet was called back to Coruscant to form a protective barrier between the Yuuzhan Vong capital and the living planet. This gave the Galactic Alliance an opportunity to launch a counter-attack, this time aimed at recovering Coruscant. During the battle, Nas Choka and the Yammka's Mount were ordered by Supreme Overlord Shimrra to escort a Slayer coralskipper from its position in orbit around Coruscant to Zonama Sekot. This particular coralskipper had been the solo survivor of the force which was present on Caluula when the Alpha Red virus was unleashed on the planet. Shimrra hoped to turnt he tables on the Galactic Alliance by using any surviving virus to destroy Zonama Sekot. The mission took its toll on the Yammka's Mount, as it was pounded mercilessly by the forces of the Galactic Alliance. (UF)
Yammosk  
this Yuuzhan Vong bio-creation was known among the elite warrior class as the war coordinator. The creature, with its bulbous head and array of tentacles, served to coordinate all activities of an invasion fleet toward a single goal. The creation of the first yammosk took many centuries, but in the end the creature proved to be a valuable asset. It could coordinate landing operations, starfighter battles, and even full-scale seiges. It had a virtually limitless supply of energy. The creature's only solid bodily structure was a single tooth, hidden with boneless flesh. The tooth was used to bury itself into a landing area, and was driven against the ground with incredible force. Eventually, it could break through even rock and ice, and the yammosk would then insinuate itself into the created crevasse and begin coordinating the invasion forces. Any enemy ships that got too close to the yammosk's position would be rendered inoperable by the intense energy the creature used to bind the Yuuzhan Vong forces together. Like most Yuuzhan Vong technology, the yammosk kept track of other Yuuzhan Vong starships by tracking their unique gravitic signatures. The only drawback of the yammosk was that, if it were ever severely injured or destroyed, the Yuuzhan Vong war force would be without any guiding force and would collapse in chaos. A Yuuzhan Vong prefect or other ranking official could commune with the yammosk by gently touching the thick, blue vein that ran between its eyes. Once the yammosk was entrenched in its new position, it could spawn a second yammosk to assist in the establishment of the next Yuuzhan Vong base. The parent yammosk would form a mental link with the offspring, transferring all knowledge it would need to act as the next war coordinator. However, the immature yammosk still had to grow strong, and the Yuuzhan Vong discovered that they grew faster if they were in contact with living bodies. Thus, the Yuuzhan Vong began capturing beings and forcing them to remain in the nutrient vats with the yammosk, giving it ready contact with life-energies. One additional benefit of this contact was that the yammosk could sense the presence of the Force, which allowed the Yuuzhan Vong to recognize the presence of a Jedi Knight in their midst. After the New Republic began to search out and destroy the yammosk at the heart of an invasion fleet, the Yuuzhan Vong began to train their pilots to act without a yammosk's guidance, giving the pilots more authority over the actions of their ships in case a yammosk was destroyed. (VP, JE, DJ, DW, UF)

Jabba issued a bounty for his capture, which Jango Fett managed to claim when he located Yan Vrees on Malastare shortly after the Battle of Naboo. (BH)
Yanci  
this young woman, a native of the planet New Apsolon, was a medic who worked for the Rock Workers some twelve years before the Battle of Naboo. Yanci's skills were quite good, and it was her presence in the Rock Worker camp that helped Obi-Wan Kenobi recover from a leg wound, during the Jedi's efforts to discover Balog's true motives. Yanci was in love with her fellow Rock Worker Kevta, and was jealous of the bond Kevta shared with Bini. When Balog's forces attacked their base of operations, Yanci was dispatched to ask the Jedi for help. While she was away, the entire group of Rock Workers was killed, including Bini, Kevta. Yanci decided to remain at the outpost and bury the dead, and eventually moved to the city to live with the Workers there. She later obtained information on Oleg's activities, and provided it to Obi-Wan. (DOH, CTV)

Yanglan, Denno  
a native of the planet Cridark II, this Imperial Medical Supervisor was in charge of the interrogation of Orn Belden, during the Bakura Incident. Despite his professional attitude, Yanglan regularly sent a portion of his paycheck back to his family in order to help them survive. After the Battle of Bakura, Yanglan and his friend, Rafe Shahverdian defected to the New Republic, primarily because he was haunted by the memory of Belden's death. He found himself being pursued by Mayr Stillman, and hoped to return to Cridark II to protect his family. He boarded the Wayfaring Stranger and tried to get home, but the ship was ambushed by an Imperial patrol ship which had been in contact with Stillman.

Yanov  
Mal Biron paid a group of rag-tag smugglers 10,000 credits to steal this Imperial customs frigate, shortly before the Battle of Endor. It was armed with four laser cannons and a proton torpedo launcher. (SSR)
Yansan  
this Ho'Din was an ecology student who hated the "inherent evils" of technology. Despite his hatred of technology, he enrolled at the Traval-Parcor System Institute of Technology to learn everything he could, then took his education and used it to disable starships. For an unknown reason, he focused his efforts on Alliance starships during the early years of the Galactic Civil War, causing the deaths of a multitude of personnel when their starships were destroyed. This earned Yansan a high position on the Alliance's most-wanted list. (AIR)
Yanskac  
this deadly creature was a source of food to the Yuuzhan Vong. A ridge of eight-centimeter-long spines ran along its dorsal surface, each spine a hollow needle used to inject poison into its prey. The tail of the yanskac was also used as a weapon, whipping the barbed tip at its target. The chelipeds of the yanskac were used to grip its prey and tear away hunks of flesh to consume. Yuuzhan Vong warriors often consumed yanskacs as a source of nourishment as well as a trial which proved the warrior had come a long way toward perfection. The yanskac flesh was seared over an open flame, while the innards were discarded. Once the flesh inside the chelipeds swelled and burst the shell, the meat was ready to eat. (SBS)
Yanth  
this 500-year-old Hutt was a vigo of the Black Sun organization shortly before the Battle of Naboo, having survived Darth Maul's virtual destruction of the organization. He controlled several upscale bars and restaurants on Coruscant, including the Tusken Oasis, and was a collector of fine antiquities. He was known to be in the market for an authentic Jedi Holocron, and learned that Lorn Pavan might be in possession of one. However, Lorn was unable to seal a deal with Zippa the Toydarian, and the chain of events eventually led to Lorn's involvement with Hath Monchar and Darth Maul. Yanth was later approached by Lorn, who had obtained a crystal holocron containing the information from Monchar on the Trade Federation's plans to blockade the Naboo System. Before he could sell the information, Yanth was confronted by Darth Maul, who calmly sliced Yanth's heart from his body before retaking the holocron. (DMSH)

this was a common Psadan name. (UANT)
Yapi  
this race of lupine beings was created by DakrStryder to serve as warriors and guardians. One of the most successful races engineered by DarkStryder, the furred Yapi eventually developed their own civilization, which became infinitely divided amongst itself. Factions of Yapi warriors formed and dissolved, each with loyalty or hatred toward DarkStryder, and virtually every tribe of Yapi was at war with one other tribe at any time. Despite their warring nature, Yapi maintained a period of peace among the tribes to trade and exchange information, as well as to form and eliminate tribes. The average Yapi was highly superstitious, holding the connection to the Ta-Ree energy in awe, as a power reserved only for the shaman of each tribe. When the crew of the FarStar arrived on Kathol to defeat Imperial Moff Sarne and DarkStryder, the Yapi willingly lent their assistance.

Yarael Poof  
this Quermian was a member of the Jedi Council during the last years of the Old Republic. He was known among the Council for his skills in projecting illusions. Poof was one of the Jedi Masters who voted for the training of Anakin Skywalker. In the years between the Battle of Naboo and the onset of the Clone Wars, Master Poof protected the planet Coruscant against the possible actions of the renegade Annoo-Dat General, Ashaar Khorda. Master Poof discovered Khorda's plans to use the Infant of Shaa to destroy Coruscant, and barely arrived in time to prevent Khorda. Unexpectedly assisted by Jango Fett and Zam Wesell, Yarael Poof managed to defeat Khorda and recover the statue. However, its destruction had already been triggered by Khorda's power. Master Poof died in a valiant effort to use the Force to return the Infant to its dormant state. Yarael Poof was portrayed by Michelle Taylor in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace. (SW1, IG1, ZW)

a middle-aged, dark-skinned man, he is somewhat obese. Brimon has short dark hair, and was a General in the Human League's Heritage Squad on Corellia just prior to the Corellian Trade Summit. He was working at the archeological dig Ebrihim showed the the Solo family. (AC)
Yarbolk Yemm  
this Chadra-Fan was a reporter for the TriNebulon News group, during the early years of the New Republic. He was busy investigating Loronar Corporation's involvement in the Meridian Sector when Dzymand Seti Ashgad released the Death Seed plague. He started to put two and two together, and eventually discovered that Loronar was supplying the various pirates and rebels with brand-new weapons. He also discovered the connection between Loronar and the Needle attack ships. He claimed that his life had been threatened at least three times before he met C-3PO and R2-D2. It was Yemm who rescued R2-D2 and C-3PO from indentured employment at the Chug 'n' Chuck on Nim Drovis, and the droids returned the favor when the three escaped from Nim Drovis on the Zicreex. (POT)
Yarchur  
this was a name that was common among the Defel race. (UANT)
Yard, The  
this huge conglomeration of metal silos and other scraps served as the headquarters for Syndicate One, on the planet Valgauth. Created from the discarded hulks of other manufacgturing facilities, the Yard appears to be a recycled castle. Inside, the Yard contains all the workings of a weapons manufacturing plant. A huge docking bay allows new weapons to be transported out to the Syndicate's customers. The Yard is relatively undefended, relying on its thick armor plating the corrosive atmosphere of Valgauth to deter any attacks. (SWJ8)
Yarda  
this green-skinned humanoid was a native of the planet Solem, and was part of the rebel underground that sprang up during the early years of the Galactic Civil War.

Yar'En  
known as the Firelands, this immense crater dominated a vast volcanic plain on the eastern hemisphere of the planet Goroth Prime. (GSE)
Yaret-kor  
this was the Yuuzhan Vong version of a plasma cannon. Like other Yuuzhan Vong technology, the yaret-kor was a living weapon, grown to serve a single purpose: to expel blasts of molten material and energy at a target. Because the yaret-kor was a living weapon, it healed naturally over time, thereby requiring less maintenance than standard weaponry. (NEGW)
Yargh'un  
this large rodent was once native to the Yuuzhan Vong homeworld of Yuuzhan'tar, and was maintained as an organic form of garbage disposal on many worldships. Supreme Overlord Shimrra kept a group of yargh'un in a charnal pit aboard his flagship, and he often threw unworthy individuals into the pit to be devoured by the creatures. (FH3)

Yarith Bespin Hotel  
Cloud City's finest hotel, it is also one of the most expensive lodging places on the outpost. Much of the architecture is crystalline in formation, and pastel colors dominate the dιcor. The focal point of the hotel is a fifty-story atrium. (ISU, RD)
Yarith Sector  
named for Yarith Figg, this area of the galaxy was located in the section of the Outer Rim Territories known as the Greater Javin. The Yarith Sector was created when the Old Republic decided to split the Anoat Sector into two parts, each corresponding to a section of the Twin Nebulae. The heirs of Ecclessis and Yarith Figg felt that the split was aimed at limiting their influence - both personally and financially - in the Greater Javin, but earned a measure of consolation in getting it named as the Yarith Sector. The sector bordered the spinward edge of the Anoat Sector, and encompassed the Kiax Nebula. However, the border between the Anoat and Yarith Sectors meandered in and out, cutting off certain planets from existing political allegiances to minimize local power. (WOA33)
Yarkora  
this race of humanoids had long, sloping faces which were dominated by wide, flat noses. They had huge, expressive eyes and wisps of hair ringing their skulls. Because of their appearance, they were often referred to as Yak-faces. Little iwa known about their homeworld, and individual Yarkora tended to be very secretive about its location. Those that were encountered were often found in thelowest levels of society, and the galaxy at large came to associate the Yarkora with criminal elements, despite the lack of evidence supporting the theory. (CCG7, EGA)
Yarkora  
this was the native language of the Tarkora race, although it was never spoken in the presence of non-Yarkora. Like most other aspects of Yarkora life, the language was kept secret from other beings. In the presence of non-Yarkora, the Yarkora spoke Basic. (UANT)
Yarna d'al' Gargan  
the six-breasted female Askajian dancer in Jabba's palace, Yarna was known as one of the greatest dancers on the planet Askaj. Her name, Yarna, meant "beautiful" in her native language. She grew up as the daughter of an Askajian chieftain, and learned to dance for th honor of her tribe. Yarna was captured on her homeworld, along with her husband Nautag and their four cubs, and forced into slavery by Jabba the Hutt. One of her cubs was killed during the capture. Nautag was fed to the rancor for protesting his enslavement, and the remaining three cubs were kept at Jabba's townhouse in order to ensure Yarna's complete acceptance of her slavery. Over time, she became one of Jabba's most favored dancers. Jabba ordered her to wear cosmetic "beauty lumps" on her face, to make her look more like his mother. When Jabba was killed at the Pit of Carkoon, Yarna was still in the palace. She met up with Doallyn, and the two of them escaped from Tessek and B'omarr monks and fled to Mos Eisley. There, she recovered her three cubs and fled Tatooine, with Doallyn, to Geran. There, they decided to become freelance traders, living aboard their starship. Yarna danced on the side, and even performed the Dance of the Seventy Violet Veils at the wedding of Han Solo and Leia Organa. Yarna d'al' Gargan was portrayed by Claire Davenport in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. (MTS, ROTJ, TJP, EGA)

Yarrku  
this Barabel was the owner of the Night Raider. He was a pirate and smuggler by trade, but would take a passage in order to make an "honest" living. Yarrku would charge an exorbitant fee, and often deliver his passengers into slavery. He once tried to swindle Nyo out of 25,000 credits for transport to Nar Shaddaa, but Kinnin Vo-Shay prevented the young man from wasting his credits. The Herglic Doune then contracted Yarrku and his pirates to intercept Vo-Shay and Nyo. Vo-Shay tricked the Barabel into believing the shields on the Ashanda Ray were down, knowing that the redundant systems would kick in shortly, then sent a bomb out in a probe as "payment" for letting them go free. Yarrku opened fire once the probe was retrieved, only to have the bomb explode just as his ship's blasts bounced off the hull of the Ashanda Ray. Yarrku and his crew were killed in the explosion. (TFNR)
Yarrock  
an addictive, hallucinogenic drug. (COJ)
Yarroq  
this was one of the more common names used by Trandoshan hunters. Like most Trandoshan names, it was reserved for males, but could be adopted by those rare females who became hunters. In the Trandoshan language, the name meant "hunts without effort". (GCG)
Yarroq  
this Trandoshan was the leader of the gang which kidnapped Renci Tosh and stole her Z-95 Headhunter, when she crashed onto Ord Mantell shortly after the Battle of Yavin. However, she managed to escape capture and eventually returned to Yarroq's outpost to recover her ship. Yarroq's men were no match for the freelancers Tosh hired to help her, and Yarroq eventually fled into the wilderness before he could be caught. (GMR1, WOA15)
Yarrv  
this planet was a lush, tropical paradise covered with dense jungles, warm oceans, and wide sandy beaches. It was settled during the height of the Old Republic, several millennia before the Battle of Yavin. During the Galactic Civil War, an Alliance protocol droid which contained vital information on their activities in the sector and on the use of Hervack Starport on Steelious was lost on Yarrv and damaged. It reverted back to its former programming as a butler, and was inserted into the household of Baron Karin of Darpheos. Alliance agents had to infiltrate the Baron's house and recover the droid before Karin could decipher the information and use it against the Alliance and start a war with Steelious. The people of Yarrv were separated into twenty different castes, and each baron had a cross-section of these castes in his realm. The small number of barons controlled over ninety percent of the planet's wealth. All the barons were ruled by a planetary King. (GMS)

this red star was the sun of the planet Trinta, and was located in the Outer Rim. (DOE)
Yarua  
this Wookiee served as the planet Kashyyyk's primary Senator to the Old Republic, during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. He despised the corruption of his fellow Senators, but found himself unable to stem the tides. Shortly before the Clone Wars, Senator Yarua agreed to meet with Trandoshan representative Hadocrassk, in an effort to negotiate a peace between their peoples. Yarua had ordered that all trade to Trandosha be blockaded after 215 Wookiees were killed aboard a transport ship near one of Trandosha's moons. The Trandoshan government refused to return the bodies of the dead to Kashyyyk. Senator Yarua threatened to secede from the Republic if reparations were not made to the Wookiee people. The peace talks were mediated by the Jedi Master Oppo Rancisis, but were interrupted by the onset of the Clone Wars. As the Clone Wars dragged on, Senator Yarua remained allied with the Old Republic, but his support of Chancellor Palpatine was anything but ringing. Despite the fact that Yarua refused an offer from the Confederacy of Independent Systems to join the Separatists, Yarua explained that the Wookiees would take the path that led to the best outcome for the Wookiees. (IG1, HNN4, SWI71)
Yarum  
native to the planet Dagobah, the yarum plant produced aromatic, orange seeds which could be used to brew a tasty tea. (VD)
Yashaka Mountains  
this range of mountains was located on the planet Yashuvhu. The native Yashuvhi used the mountains as a hiding place when the Chiss first discovered their civilization. (FH2)
Yashuvhi  
this branch of mainline human stock was cut off from the rest of the galaxy many millennia before the Galactic Civil War. A Jedi Knight and his crew were exploring the Unknown Regions when an accident brought their ship out of hyperspace. The crew survived, and settled on the planet Yashuvhu. Lacking the technology to repair the ship, the Jedi and the crew were cut off from the rest of the galaxy but nonetheless managed to survive and prosper. The descendents of the original crew were all sensitive to the Force, having the Jedi as their main forebears. The Yashuvhi were discovered by the crew of the Pathfinder III during the century leading up to the Battle of Naboo. (WOTC)
Yashuvhu  
this lush, temperate world was originally settled during the Expansion Period of the Old Republic by a group of human colonists. Legends say that a Jedi Knight and his crew were on an exploration mission when they were forced out of hyperspace. An unspecified accident disabled their starship, and they were forced to land on the planet. They were utterly cut off from the rest of the galaxy, lacking any spare parts and without the necessary skills or resources to repair the ship. Yashuvhu was located on the fringes of the Unknown Regions. The human population nevertheless grew steadily, and referred to themselves as the Yashuvhi. The planet was "discovered" by the crew of the Pathfinder III during the century leading up to the Battle of Naboo. (WOTC)
Yasilor  
this planet is located in Bajic Sector. (GG11)
Yassat  
this man was a member of the Walkway Collective, in the wake of the Battle of Coruscant. HE served Tenga Javik as a scout, exploring the areas surrounding the bombed-out Catier Walkway in search of supplies, other humans, or Yuuzhan Vong warriors. He claimed to have seen Lord Nyax made incarnate on Coruscant, after witnessing a dark being mercilessly destroying Yuuzhan Vong raiding parties. (EL2)

Yavaris  
this New Republic Nebulon-B escort frigate originally saw duty as a troop carrier during the Galactic Civil War, and saw action at the Battle of Yavin. Later, it was used by Wedge during the assault on the Maw Installation. (COTF, JASB)
Yavassk  
this was a common name among members of the Trandoshan race. (WOTC, UANT)
Yavid  
this diminutive Sanyassan grew up on the Forest Moon of Endor, part of the group of Marauders that was stranded on the moon during the height of the New Order. In his youth on Sanyassa IV, Yavid was a member of the aristocracy, but was forced to work harder than his peers to earn respect, and he came to have a very cynical and sadistic nature. He was eventually taken in by the Marauders, who were later exiled and ended up on the Forest Moon. With the Maruaders, Yavid earned the rank of General under King Terak, providing tactical information that kept the Duloks and Phlogs at bay. It was also said that Yavid's efforts resulted in a truce with Morag, who had been planning to wipe out the Maraduers. When Terak was defeated by the Ewoks, Yavid assumed the position of King. However, he lacked the leadership skills necessary to keep the peace, and the surviving Marauders soon destroyed each other. (SWDB)
Yavin  
the second and primary planet in the Yavin system, Yavin was a marginally habitable gas planet with twenty-six moons, of which three were inhabited. The planet measured some 192,478 kilometers in diameter, and the atmosphere which surrounded it had an average depth of 65,000 kilometers. The density of its metallic hydrogen core gave Yavin a gravity which is 2.74 times the standard of Coruscant, and helped the gas giant to attract so many moons. The atmosphere of Yavin was one of the brightest in the galaxy, leading many scientists to believe that it was a world that could have become a star under other circumstances. The planet's intense light even visible on the dark side, and was attributed to photons becoming trapped in the gases and bouncing around, not from any sort of fusion reaction. Despite the intense pressures within the clouds, Yavin supported lifeforms which were thinner than paper but nonetheless alive. Yavin spun remarkably fast for its size, rotating once around its axis every eleven standard hours. Its year lasted some 4,858 local days. Estimates placed Yavin some 40,500 light-years from the galactic core. Note that the Planet Hoppers feature of the Wizards of the Coast website indicates that Yavin measured 198,500 kilometers in diameter, had a normal gravity that was four times Standard. Furthermore, the series indicates that Yavin was the third planet in the Yavin System, had a day which lasted twenty-four hours, and a year that encompassed 4,818 local days. In the wake of the Great Sith War, the Jedi Order sought to erase information on the Yavin System from the Jedi Archives and other galactic databases, hoping to put an end to the threat of the Dark Side that seemed to linger on Yavin 4. (SW, SWN, GG2, EVC, PH, IWST, GORW)
Yavin  
this Mon Calamari MC90 cruiser was used by Wedge Antilles as his command ship during the assault on Almania. (TNR)
Yavin  
this star was the central body in the Yavin System, located in the Sumitra Sector of the Outer Rim Territories. (GORW)
Yavin 13  
one of three inhabitable moons of Yavin, Yavin 13 was a desert moon which was home to the Gerbs and the Slith. While the majority of the moon was dominated rocky deserts and forests of cactus, most of the southern hemisphere was covered by a shallow sea that provided the meager moisture that could be found in its atmosphere. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, the alien invaders devastated the moon, wiping out all life on its surface. (GG2, PH, GORW)
Yavin 22  
this large, airless asteroid was considered the twenty-second moon of the gas giant Yavin, although it was probably captured by Yavin's gravity rather than forming as part of the Yavin System. Yavin 22 was best-known as the final resting place of Yavin Station, which had crashed onto the moon some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. (PH)
Yavin 4  
one of the many inhabitable moons of the gas giant Yavin, Yavin 4 had a lush, tropical ecology that supported an abundance of life. It was home to the extinct Massassi race, which was subjugated by Exar Kun some 4,000 years before the Battle of Endor. The Massassi built huge temples in the jungles to focus the Dark Side energies Kun commanded. During the Great Sith War, Yavin 4 was were Kun made his final stand, draining the life energies of the Massassi to preserve his spirit despite the death of his flesh. The resulting clash of Force energies sparked huge forest fires that ravaged the jungles. When Ulic Qel-Droma returned several years after the war, the jungles were still barren of life. Over the millennia, however, life did return to the moon, and its jungles flourished. When the Alliance built their first main base, they chose Yavin 4 as an out-of-the-way location. Following the destruction of Alderaan and Princess Leia's rescue from the first Death Star, the Empire discovered the base's location and tried to destroy it. The Alliance's starfighters, led by Luke Skywalker, destroyed the station before it could fire on the moon. However, debris from the first Death Star rained down on Yavin 4 for months, touching off forest fires and laying waste to vast portions of the planet. The destruction was much less than that resulting from the Sith War, and much of the Alliance base remained intact. Later, Mon Mothma and Leia Organa-Solo chose Yavin 4 as the site for Luke Skywalker's Jedi praxeum. The average day on Yavin 4 lasted 24 standard hours, and it circled Yavin three times every Coruscant standard year. The moon had four major land masses separated by six interconnected oceans. Note that I, Jedi indicates that Yavin 4 has its own moon. Also note that Yavin Four is described as the base of operations for the new government forming out of the Alliance, following the death of Emperor Palpatine at Endor, in The Glove of Darth Vader. The Lost City of the Jedi claims that, thousands of years before the Galactic Civil War, Yavin 4 was a barren, cold ball of rock. The ancient Jedi created the lush, tropical environment, with a 6-month dry/6-month wet seasonal cycle, by building a weather and climate control center in the Lost City. They Jedi then programmed the caretaker droids to maintain the weather programs until they are told not to. The moon was later burnt extensively by Trioculus, in an attempt to locate the Lost City of the Jedi. Yavin 4 remained untouched for several decades, until the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy. In an effort to wipe out the Jedi, the Yuuzhan Vong placed bounties on the heads of any being who was trained as a Jedi Knight. Many bounty hunters made the trip to the Yavin System, but none could locate the jungle moon and its temples. This was because Luke Skywalker and his fellow Jedi Masters used Fallanassi techniques of illusion to hide the entire moon from view. However, the illusion was eventually broken when a group of Peace Brigade ships managed to find it, and relayed its location to the Yuuzhan Vong. The alien invaders attacked Yavin 4 and seized control of the moon, reforming it to serve as a Shaper base. (SW, DLS, TSW, HTF, JS, GDV, LCJ, JASB, IJ, GG2, PJSB, NJOSB)
Yavin 4 Station  
this space station was originally created in orbit around Yavin 4 as an outpost for spacers who were traveling through the Yavin System, or for explorers who were traveling to Yavin 4 itself. After the Battle of Yavin, the station was appropriated for use by Imperial forces, during the investigation of the former Alliance base in the temple ruins on Yavin 4. (SWGAL)
Yavin 8  
one of three inhabitable moons of Yavin, Yavin 8 had a rocky, mountainous terrain which was home to a number of species of grazers and the Melodie people. Much of its ecosystem was tundra, with most of the planet's abundant water supply frozen into snow or ice. The moon measured 11,400 kilometers in diameter, and orbited Yavin at an average distance of 560,342 kilometers. It orbited Yavin once every 1.14 Coruscant years, and its day encompassed 21 standard hours. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Yavin 8 was ravaged by the alien invaders, and those Melodies who lived on the moon were exterminated. (GG2, LW, PH, GORW)
Yavin Station  
this ancient space station was erected in orbit around the gas giant Yavin, more than 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. Built from ores mined on Tatooine, the station served as an outpost for explorers and other beings who were passing through the system. For many years, it was operated by Suvam Tan, until it began to decay. The ores that were used in its creation were poorly suited for use in space, and began to fracture. One fateful day, a freighter that was attempting to leaving Yavin Station caused a small crack to form in its hangar bay. In no time, the crack expanded and grew, and Yavin Station suffered a catastrophic, explosive decompression. All aboard were killed, and the force of the blast smashed Yavin Station into the barren surface of Yavin 22. However, the station absorbed the impact on its ventral surface, and many of its interior chambers were well-preserved, flash-frozen during the decompression. (PH)
Yavin Vassilika  
this wondrous crystal sphere was considered nothing more than a legend to most of the modern galaxy. It was formed from a single Coruscan Gem, and was covered with a variety of Massassi heiroglyphs. Its location was discovered by Illyan Webble, shortly before the Battle of Yavin, on a remote world where it was worshipped by an alien race. The Vassilika was later discovered to be more than just a crystal sphere. Inside the sphere was an archaic key, which opened the greatest of the Massassi temples on Yavin 4. The sphere was eventually recovered by Brian Tharen and an elderly man known as The Collector, who were members of the Alliance searching for a way to use the Massassi temples as a base. (UYV)
Yavin's Caprice  
this Gymsnor-class cargo ship was captured by Sol Mon and his pirates. The ship's Captain tried to reach the New Republic and warn them of the pirates, but Sol Mon captured her before she could complete the message. (CE2)

Y-Ball  
this Ugly starfighter was developed from a TIE Fighter cockpit mounted to the engines of a Y-Wing. First developed on Corellia, these well-armed ships were quite slow to maneuver and were often poorly made. When Rogue Squadron tried to rescue members of Baron Soontir Fels' family from kidnappers, they shot down several squadrons of these Uglies. (XWM, HXW)

this was the model number of an expensive, high-end security component, used during the last decades of the Old Republic to protect computer systems. (EOS)
Ycaqt  
native to the planet Velmor, this large, tadpole-shaped creature was used as a mount. Its large, ovoid body was supported by two long legs, and was counterbalanced by a whip-like tail. The average ycaqt stood more than two meters tall, and ran along the ground like birds. The natives of Velmor had learned to domesticate the ycaqt, and used them as mounts during ceremonial mrid hunts. (LTA2, WOTC, GMR10)
Ycaqt Cargo Ship  
developed jointly by the Corellian Engineering Corporation and Loronar Corporation at Shipyard Lab 6671-X42, the Ycaqt cargo ship was a droid-controlled vessel designed to move small shipments along safe hyperspace routes safely and inexpensively. Measuring just twenty-one meters in length, the Ycaqt armed with just a single ion cannon and could carry up to 250 metric tons of cargo. The interior spaces were designed to carry inanimate objects, but could be reconfigred to transport live cargoes. While the Ycaqt looked good on paper, the droid brain developed for the craft suffered from the same sort of "prissiness" that affected many protocol droids, and it lacked the ability to negotiate for lower docking fees when necessary. (GMR10)
Yccakic  
this Bith played the Bottom Viol in Sprig Cheever's band, and was known to be nervous about everything related to the band. He feared that they would not earn enough credits to make it to the next system; he worried that his instrument would be damaged in transit; he hoped the band would practice a few new numbers to keep the act fresh. (SWJ4, SWJ10)

Ydde was a good friend of Ki-Adi-Mundi, and often helped the Cerean located individuals and places in the Citadels. He worked for a small shipping firm until he was caught up in the plans of Bron and Ephant Mon to import swoops and other technology to Cerea while exporting trace quantities of malium. When he realized that a Cerean elder - Dorr-Femi-Bonmi - was involved in their plans, Ydde tried to get out. After giving all the information he could to Ki about the scheme, Ydde was executed for his seeming deceit by Dorr. He was survived by his wife and five young children. (PTR)

Yeb Yeb Adem'thorn  
this Swokes Swokes was an Old Republic Senator who opposed the taxation of trade routes, during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. It was rumored that Senator Adem'thorn's move from his homeworld to a luxurious home on Coruscant was ample evidence of his corruption. (CCG13)
Yeb, Solipo

Yelsain  
this forest world is found in the Yelsain System of the Minos Cluster. It was a large planet, although it lacked heavy metals in its composition. This resulted in a lower than normal gravity despite its size. The tress of the forests are immense, with older specimens measuring 400 meters in height. The original settlers were forced to battle the creatures which lived in the trees, and their exploits became the subject of a number of holo-vids produced on nearby Adarlon. The trees consume carbon dioxide and produce oxygen at incredible rates, which means the oxygen content of its atmosphere is quite high. This leads to intense weather patterns, with nightly thunderstorms sweeping across the surface. Yelsain's inhabitants are rural by galactic standards, although their colleges and universities are second to none. They live and work in sprawling cities built in the trees. The natives of the planet were fiercely loyal to the Old Republic, as a result of the Republic's support of the settlement there. Many Jedi Knights claimed Yelsain as their home, and it was rumored that many Jedi hid there during Emperor Palpatine's purge.

Unfortunately, his actions forced Sprax to retaliate, and the Nalroni dispatched Limna Yith to force Barani to pay his dues. When Barani refused, Yith used her starship's weapons to severely damaged the outpost on Yen-2, rendering most of its life-support and power systems inoperable. Much more of the outpost was destroyed by Bel Att's mercenaries, after learning of their leader's death at the hands of Limna Yith. The colony was abandoned, by Neil Barani remained behind to hide from reprisals from either the Empire or Black Sun, or both. (SSR)

Yevetha  
a humanoid alien race which resembled animated skeletons, the Yevetha originally came from the planet N'zoth. Their facial structure was highly colored, with a white nasal ridge and scarlet cheek and chin ridges surrounding dark black eyes. The Yevetha had six clawed fingers on each hand, and a wicked dewclaw could be extended from their wrists. Having evolved in the Koornacht Cluster and never seeing other stars beyond their own, the Yevetha became a very self-important race, considering themselves the masters of their universe. All other races were simply vermin. The Yevetha had a hierarchical society, with the males being dominant. There were castes of males and females, and the higher classes alway dominated the lower. Lower-ranking Yevethan males were required to bear their necks in deferrence to their superiors. Yevetha were also extrememly quick to learn new things, and were particularly adept at assimilating technology. They never eat in mixed company, and detested the smell and feel of other races. They installed specialized bathing stations on their embassy ships, to wash away the scent of other races. The Yevetha had moved beyond N'zoth and either conquered of populated the nearest worlds when the Empire subjugated them and used the Koornacht Cluster as a base of operations for the Black Sword Command. Under the guidance of Nil Spaar, the Yevetha overthrew the Imperials following the Galactic Civil War, and created plans to purge the Koornacht Clsuter - and eventually the galaxy - of non-Yevethans. This plan became known as the Great Purge, and was initiated about twelve years after their defeat of the Empire. The New Republic eventually put a halt to the Yevethan aggression, and the Yevetha were forced to retreat to N'zoth. They remained a formidable threat, however, so much so that the Yuuzhan Vong traded a momentary freedom to the Fia in exchange for information on the Yevethan military. The Fia, who had been among the many races plagued by the Yevetha, were only too eager to agree. In an attempt to eliminate any threat along its rearward borders, the Yuuzhan Vong utterly destroyed the Yevethan homeworld of N'zoth, killing every last Yevethan individual and wiping the Yevethan civilization from the galaxy.

Libkath forced the children to perform a number of criminal activities or suffer his wrath, such as stealing weapons from Jabba the Hutt and disrupting the activities of the Separatists in Mos Espa. It was Ygabba who befriended young Boba Fett in the months following the Battle of Geonosis, when Fett arrived on Tatooine to seek information from Jabba the Hutt. After Boba Fett helped Ygabba and the children escape from Libkath, they returned to Jabba's palace to claim the bounty on the Neimoidian. It was there that Ygabba was reunited with her father, the chef Gab'borah. Ygabba chose to remain with her father, cooking all manner of dishes for Jabba and his retainers.

YI-5  
this series of droids was produced for use in surveillance and forensic investigations, during the height of the New Order. Most of the YI-5 droids that were produced went to the Imperial Security Bureau. The YI-5 proved its worth almost immediately, when one of the first droids used by the ISB caught the actions of Vune Willic on a variety of media, which were later used in presenting evidence at Willic's courtmartial trial. The YI-5 was a small, insect-like droid that was shaped like a flattened oval. A miniature holocamera and two sensor eyes - one red, for heat signatures; and one blue, for light signatures - sat atop the body. Four sockets for mounting a set of manipulator arms were located on the belly, and a unique stealth field package gave the YI-5 a form of shielding that altered its coloration to match it surroundings. When Ysanne Isard first saw the YI-5 in action, she believed that the two sensor eyes were colored red and blue as a subtle jab at her own eye color. Only the effectiveness of the YI-5 in bringing Vune Willic to justice, along with the assurances of the Empire's own engineers, persuaded her to rescind the termination orders against the designers.

Despite his anger, the trooper eventually forged a bond with Leia, which was broken when he was shot and killed by Governor Wessel during Leia's escape from Yinchorr. A few months later, Yinchorr was "cleansed" of its original inhabitants by the Empire, in order to make way for a training facility for Emperor Palpatine's elite Royal Imperial Guard. The primary world of the Yinchorri System, Yinchorr was abandoned after Carnor Jax destroyed the Royal Imperial Guard facility there, shortly after the death of Emperor Palpatine's clones at Byss. (CE, AOW, MC86, LTA6)
Yinchorri  
this race of tortoise-like humanoids was native to the planet Yinchorr, and was known for their immunity to the manipulations of the Force. As a race, they were first admitted to the Old Republic shortly before the Battle of Naboo. The Yinchorri society was broken into the Intelligentsia and a warrior caste, and the Yinchorri were thought of as technophiles by the Old Republic. The Yinchorri were quick to pick up and use any form of technology, including starships and weapons, and quickly learn how to subjugate their neighbors. They also discovered the usefulness of cortosis armor, when they leanred that it was capable of stopping a lightsaber. The Yinchorri developed a form of military transportation based on the wings of insects, with a powerpack which strapped to their backs and six thin wings for propulsion. Unfortunately for the Yinchorri, they were not exceptionally intelligent, and were drawn into the machincations of Darth Sidious, who used their aggressiveness to begin attacking Republic outposts and, later, the Jedi Knights themselves. After an attack on Mayvitch 7, the Jedi Knights were called in to put an end to the Yinchorri conquests. Only after taking many losses were the Jedi able to quell the Yinchorri by destroying their base on Uhanayih and forcing the Yinchorri to surrender. After the rise of Emperor Palpatine, the Yinchorri were nearly wiped from the planet during the Imperial retaliation for their rebellion. The Empire then established a training facility on Yinchorr for the Royal Imperial Guards. Unknown to the Empire, several small clusters of Yinchorri managed to survive their extermination. In the wake of the Battle of Endor, they took control of the former Imperial training facility and used it as their governmental seat of power. They chose to remain independent from the New Republic.

YKL37R  
this was the MandalMotors model number of the M3-A Scyk starfighter. Note that this designation is similar to that of the YKL-37R Nova Cruiser, introduced by the Star Wars Galaxies game, although the two ships are vastly different. (LAWS, SWGAL)
YKL-37R Nova Courier  
this light transport was developed by Gallofree Yards, Incorporated, as an answer to the YT-series of freighters that were produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. The hope was that the YKL-37R Nova Courier would rekindle sales for Gallofree, after their medium transport was plagued with repairs and reliability issues. The YKL-37R Nova Courier was a flat, oval-shaped craft with a pair of cargo pods mounted to the sides with heavy struts. The front of each pod was given a weapon emplacement, allowing a variety of armament configurations. The rear of the vessel was dominated by three large sublight drives. Although Gallofree went bankrupt shortly before the Battle of Yavin, the Alliance bought up large numbers of their medium transports as well as the YKL-37R Nova Courier. The YKL-37R became known for its maneuverability, especially among asteroids to avoid pursuit and in fighting off Imperial TIE Fighters. Many other YKL-37R Nova Couriers found their way into the hands of smugglers. (SWGAL)

There, Ylenic worked with his old friend, Nejaa Halcyon, to ensure that Aayla's mission was a success, despite the mysterious circumstances under which it was carried out. Shortly after the Clone Wars, Ylenic and Nejaa were dispatched to stop Nikkos Tyris, who had stumbled upon ancient Sith lore. Although the Jedi succeeded in eliminating the Sith threat, Nejaa was killed in the struggle. Ylenic then flew to Corellia to deliver Nejaa's personal belongings to his widow, Scerra. Years later, he served as one of Bail Organa's chief advisors during the early years of the New Order. Ylenic was part of the Alderaanian delegation which travelled to Cloud City to meet with Bria Tharen. Unfortunately for thr Caamasi, Ylenic was on Alderaan when it was destroyed by the first Death Star. It'kla died in the blast. (RD, IJ, SWI66, PJSB)
Ylesia  
this planet was covered with shallow seas broken by several island chains and three continents. The northern continent was located near the north pole, while the other two were located along the equator. The weather patterns on Ylesia were marked by incredibly wild air currents found in all layers of the atmosphere, making it difficult to land a ship there. These patterns were due mainly to the planet's swift rotation, which results in a ten-hour day. Much of the land is hidden under shallow, brackish water, resulting in swampy areas which abound with a strange fungus that thrives on fresh blood. The Hutts and t'landa Til set up a huge glitterstim processing plant on this world, using the front of a religious colony to obtain slave labor. An orbiting space station was positioned over Colony One, and was the primary debarkation point for new pilgrims and outgoing slaves. Bria Tharen and her Alliance crew often attacked slave ships leaving the space station. The planet eventually supported nine of the "religious" colonies before the Hutts started thinking about populating another world. During the era of the New Republic and the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Ylesia became a hotbed of activity and support for the Peace Brigade, and later served as the Peace Brigade's base of operations. To ensure that the Peace Brigade was free to act, the Yuuzhan Vong executed every Hutt it could find on Ylesia, but maintained the glitterstim mining operations as a way to fund the activities of the Peace Brigade. About four years into the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, the New Republic launched an all-out assault on Ylesia, managing to defeat the alien invaders and retake Ylesia. (TPS, RD, BP, EVR, Y, UF)
Ylesian Dream  
Han Solo stowed away aboard this automated barge when it was docked to the Trader's Luck. He managed to get the ship to Ylesia with the help of its R2-series pilot. Later, after being hired by Teroenza as a pilot, he used the Dream to train and perform routine transport runs. Han tried to train Muuurgh as a gunner, but had relatively poor luck. The Dream was hyperdrive-equipped. They were flying a shipment of glitterstim in it when they were attacked by pirates and forced to stop over on Alderaan. There, Han obtained medical help help for Muuurgh while attempting to sell some of the spice. Later, when Han and Bria tried to escape from Ylesia, Jalus Nebl flew the Dream in between the Helot's Shackle and broke a tractor beam lock, allowing them to escape. Nebl took the Dream and fled into hyperspace. He later joined the Alliance, and renamed the ship Dream of Freedom. (TPS, RD)
Ylesian Republic  
this was the term used to describe the government formed by the Ylesian Senate, after Thrackan Sal-Solo was appointed President of Ylesia and Commander in Chief of the Peace Brigade. (Y)
Ylesian Senate  
this was the name of the governing body of the planet Ylesia, after it had been taken over by the Peace Brigade. Originally known as the Alliance of Twelve, the Senate was composed of some sixty members at its height. Despite the name "Senate", the group was made up of a wide variety of criminals and renegades who were constantly fighting over their own agendas. Thrackan Sal-Solo, after being named President of Ylesia and Commander in Chief of the Peace Brigade by Supreme Overlord Shimrra, took control of the Senate in an effort to focus the activities of the Peace Brigade. The Senate, however, didn't like the fact that they had to answer to Sal-Solo, and formed a temporary alliance to bring about his downfall. The Senate, when combined with Sal-Solo as President, formed the so-called Ylesian Republic. (Y)
Ylix  
this backwater planet was the birthplace of Gallandro. For many centuries, the inhabitants of Ylix were embroiled in a civil war with their planetary neighbors from Goelitz. The actual cause of the feud has been forgotten, but the bitterness remained for many generations. The Imperial Moff of the sector promised to peacefully resolve the wars, but he was soon worried about other matters and the battles continued to rage. Eventually, Ylix forces - with Gallandro as one of their leaders - defeated the forces from Goelitz, ending the dispute in bloody fashion. (CSA, EGC)

Yncha  
this huge, slug-like creature was bio-engineered by the Yuuzhan Vong as a form of orbital attack creature. Comparable in size to an immense space slug, the yncha had a wedge-shaped head that was dominated by an eighty-meter-wide mouth. A pouch was located on its back. The mission of the yncha was to literally consume space stations and orbital facilities, removing them as first lines of defense for planets that the Yuuzhan Vong wanted to conquer. The creature first disabled a station's shields by consuming the energy that powered them. Then, using its wide mouth, the yncha took pieces of the station in its mouth and crushed them. Often, small landing craft were affixed to the hide of the yncha, allowing Yuuzhan Vong warriors to quickly enter the station and eliminate any opposition. (UF)
Ynos  
this native of the planet Anobis was the leader of his farming village. When Han Solo and Anja Gallandro arrived on the planet, it was Ynos who first greeted them.

Yoda  
this incredibly aged Jedi Master was regarded as one of the primary leaders of the Jedi Council, in the decades leading up the to fall of the Old Republic. Along with Mace Windu and Ki-Adi-Mundi, the 860-year-old Yoda was a strong voice in the Council's decisions. A master of appearing old and frail, Yoda was an expert swordsbeing and teacher. He attained the rank of Jedi Master at a meer 100 years of age. More than 100 years before the Battle of Naboo, Yoda served as one of the Jedi Masters working aboard the Chu'unthor before it was lost on Dathomir. 700 years old at the time, Yoda returned to Coruscant in defeat, and resolved to spent his time on the Jedi Council, guiding the Jedi Order with the help of the Force. He never revealed his race or homeworld, preferring to maintain an air of mystery. Like many other Jedi Masters, Yoda continued to teach while sitting on the Council, and was responsible for the early training of Obi-Wan Kenobi. However, when Qui-Gin Jinn brought nine-year-old Anakin Skywalker before the Council, Yoda was one of the few who voted not to train the boy. He was overruled, and Obi-Wan Kenobi was appointed the boy's master. A decade passed, and Yoda became increasingly aware of the presence of the Dark Side of the Force in the galaxy. However, he underestimated its strength, and the Jedi Council was blinded to the creation of a clone army on the planet Kamino. When the Separatists - led by one of Yoda's former Padawans, Count Dooku - rose up on Geonosis, Yoda was asked to take command of the clone troopers and answer the Separatist threat. Although he managed to save a handful of Jedi and defeat the Separatists' droid armies, Yoda was unable to prevent Dooku's escape. Like other Jedi Masters of the time, Yoda agreed to take up the role of a military General, and led several missions for the Old Republic, most notably to Vjun and Kashyyyk. However, Yoda - like the rest of the Jedi Council - failed to locate Darth Sidious before it was too late. When Chancellor Palpatine revealed that he was the Sith Lord, he moved swiftly to eliminate as many Jedi as he could. Yoda managed to escape Kashyyyk, only to learn from Obi-Wan and Bail Organa that the Jedi had been outlawed. Yoda tried to confront Darth Sidious back on Coruscant, but came to realize that he was totally unprepared for the Sith's power. Yoda also realized that the Jedi Order had been preparing to meet a possible Sith threat based on information from the Battle of Ruusan, a thousand years earlier. Instead, the Sith had been adapting to the changes of the galaxy, and the Jedi had become arrogant enough to believe that the old ways were the only ways to handle things. Thus, any actions the Jedi Council could have taken against Sidious would have been - and, ultimately were - utterly useless. Rather than fight Palpatine and surely die, Yoda chose to flee Coruscant and fight back in other ways. On Polis Massa, he was visited by the spirit of Qui-Gon Jinn, who had somehow discovered the ancient teachings of the Whills and learned to affect the real world even in death. Qui-Gon then offered Yoda the chance to learn the techniques, and Yoda gratefully agreed to become Qui-Gon's apprentice. Yoda later learned of the birth of Padme' Amidala Skywalker's twins, and decided with Obi-Wan to separate them and place them in hiding. The two surviving Jedi hoped that the children would one day be strong enough to oppose Palpatine. Yoda then fled to Dagobah in hopes of eluding the Jedi purge by hiding among the intense life-force of the creatures there. He remained on Dagobah, and was eventually caught up in the Dark Jedi rebellion that engulfed Bpfassh as he was forced to destroy their leader when they fled to Dagobah. A period of relative tranquility passed for Yoda, until the spirit of Obi-Wan Kenobi directed Luke Skywalker to seek out the old Jedi Master. When Luke discovers him on Dagobah, following the Battle of Hoth, Yoda is almost 900 years old, and appears as a dimuntive elf-like creature with greenish-blue skin, wide eyes, and large pointed ears. He speaks in an archaic form of Basic. He claims to have watched over Luke's development for as long as Luke has been alive, not knowing if he would be able to train Luke or not, for he and Obi-Wan Kenobi realized that Luke might be the last of the Jedi Knights. Yoda took part in the events on Dathomir, along with the Jedi Masters Gra'aton and Vulatan, and foretold that the last of the Jedi Knights would someday come and defeat the Nightsisters. This would mark the end of the world as the witches knew it, and reshape their lives in profound ways. The Jedi Knight Yoda saw as Luke Skywalker. Yoda also foretold that Luke would be able to reveal the secret of the hundreds of reader disks that the Jedi kept with the witches of the Light Side (passed down to Rell), and that he would share them with the Dathomir witches. Yoda was portrayed by Frank Oz and Kathryn Mullen in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back and Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. Yoda was also portrayed by John Lithgow for the The Empire Strikes Back Radio Drama on National Public Radio. Yoda was again voiced by Frank Oz, and puppeted by Kathy Smee, Don Austen, and David Greenaway in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace.

Yo'Gand  
a legendary Yuuzhan Vong warrior, he was credited with uniting the various warring Yuuzhan Vong clans by ending the Cremlevian War. Using a bold move that became known as Yo'Gand's Core, he employed a dovin basal to destroy Ygziir, the home planet of one of the largest clans. Near the end of the battle Yo'Gand defeated the then-current Warmaster, Steng, assuming the position of Warmaster for the Yuuzhan Vong. However, the effects of the Cremlevian War left the Yuuzhan Vong's home galaxy a lifeless collection of worlds, forcing them to travel into the intergalactic void and seek out the New Republic. (VP, GMR8, NJOSB)
Yo'Gand's Core  
this tactic was developed by the legendary Yuuzhan Vong warrior Yo'Gand during the Cremlevian War. At the "core" of his plan was the use of a strong dovin basal to drag the home planet of one of the largest clans, Ygziir, into a collision with its moon. With this clan utterly destroyed, Yo'Gand was able to defeat Steng and eventually unite all Yuuzhan Vong clans, thus ending the Cremlevian War. Nom Anor and Da'Gara later used the tactic in an effort to destroy the planet Sernpidal, during the initial stages of their invasion of the known galaxy. (VP, NJOSB)
Yoggoy  
this was one of the many hives that made up the Colony.

The members of the Yoggoy hive were similar in appearance to the Lizil, but had scarlet carapaces and stood two meters or more in height. The Yoggoy were considered to be the soldiers of the Colony. The Yoggoy lived on a planet that was also known as Yoggoy. A large portion of the Yoggoy were changed by the integration of Raynar Thul into their hive, when his connection to the Force gave rise to a new hive of insects. This new hive became known as the Unu. (DN1)
Yoggoy  
this was the name of the planet that was colonized by the Yoggoy hive of the Colony. Like all Colony worlds, Yoggoy was located in the Unknown Regions, and its system bordered on the edges of Chiss space. It was here that the Tachyon Flier crashed, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. This event, known as Ub Ruur in the language of the Colony, became known as The Crash, and marked the beginning of a period of intense expansion by the Colony. (DN1)

Yolan Bren  
this green-skinned humanoid was a native of the planet Solem, and was part of the rebel underground that sprang up during the early years of the Galactic Civil War. Yolan Bren was known as the Poet among his people, for he spoke eloquently about throwing off the Imperial yoke of control. It was later revealed that Yolan Bren was also the brother of Imperial Governor Malvander. They had been brought up to rule Solem together, but Yolan Bren could not stand by and allow the Empire to simply take his planet. However, in the wake of the Battle of Yavin, Solem was brutally subjugated by Malvander, in an effort to impress the Empire. Yolan Bren barely survived the attack, receiving several injuries to his arms and chest. Hoping to break the will of Solem's natives, the Empire hired Boba Fett to ensure that Yolan Bren was killed. Rather than see any more of his companions killed, Yolan Bren surrendered himself to the bounty hunter. His fellow rebels, however, could not simply sit by and watch him being captured. Lol led a group of rebels into G'ai Solem, where Malvander's forces were spread too thin to stop any form of organized resistance. They were able to easily rescue Yolan Bren, and in turn captured Malvander. (SWES)

Yomin Carr  
one of the Yuuzhan Vong's advance scouts, Yomin Carr posed as a human being in order to infiltrate the ExGal Society's base on Belkadan. From there, he could assist in blinding the galaxy to initial phases of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. He hated the weak humans he worked with, but held a grudging respect for Danni Quee. As Nom Anor's plans reached their culmination, Yomin Carr maintained communication with Prefect Da'Gara and coordinated the landing of the Yuuzhan Vong's first warship on Helska. From there, he eliminated ExGal-4, and was a first-hand witness to the initial stages of the Praetorite Vong's invasion. However, in his zeal to ensure the New Republic was unaware of the Yuuzhan Vong presence, he did not anticipate that Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade would travel to Belkadan and investigate the planet's destruction. Luke and Mara were forced into a desparate battle with Carr, who used every organic weapon in his arsenal against them. Unfortunately for Yomin Carr, he was unable to take control of Mara's lightsaber during a brief melee. He tried to swing his amphistaff down and crush her head, but she managed to get the blade of the lightsaber up in time to catch him in the chest. Carr's momentum carried him further onto the blade,which pierced his armor and burned his heart. (VP)
Yomm, Auren  
a fifteen-year-old human girl from the Umboo colony of Roon, Auren was an excellent athlete and kalak handler. She and her droid, Bix, won many competitions in the Colonial Games during the early years of the New Order, and were often partnered with Gee Long. Auren met Mungo Baobab and his droids, R2-D2 and C-3PO, when she rescued them from a race of mud creatures on Roon. They were then beset by Governor Koong and his henchman, Gaff, as well as by Gaff's espionage droid O'Dingo. Mungo and C-3PO agreed to help Auren and her team compete in the Colonial Games. For his help, Auren gave Mungo a Roonstone. In the following years, Aurem decided to fight back against Imperial domination, and earned the respoect of the Alliance's military leaders for her training of Alliance-allied resistance groups. She was perhaps best-known for training the Caldera's Crest guerilla fighters, who fought back against the Imperial forces that were controlling New Bornalex. (DCAR, SWDB, GORW)

Their rescue attempt was successful, and Bola was able to recover from the virus. (DCAR)
Yomm, Nilz  
Auren Yomm's father, he was a respected physician and trader in the Roon System. When Governor Koong sprayed the Ruse virus over the umboo province of Roon, Nilz's wife Bola was infected with it. Nilz discovered the cure for the virus, but was captured by Koong. Koong himself had been infected, and demanded that Nilz cure him. Nilz, however, was rescued by Mungo Baobab and the droids, R2-D2 and C-3PO, and returned to Roon. He was able to administer the cure to Bola, curing her before the virus could kill her. (DCAR)

Yonka, Sair  
this Imperial Captain commanded the Avarice during the years after the Battle of Endor. Prior to serving under Ysanne Isard, he spent most of his career in the Outer Rim chasing pirates and protecting convoys. He was known as a smart and calculating officer, who worked to maximize his chances for survival. A native of Commenor, he grew up and fell in love with a woman named Aellyn, who later married Moff Riit Jandi after Yonka left for the Imperial Academy. When they met each other years later on Elshandruu Pica, they started an illicit affair with the help of Kina Margath. When word of this affair reached the ears of Wedge Antilles and Rogue Squadron, through the droid Poe, they used it to convince Yonka to renounce his Imperial commission and join the New Republic. He accepted Wedge's proposal, and brought the Avarice and most of its crew with him. Those crewmen who wished to remain in Imperial service hijacked a Lambda-class shuttle and forced Yonka's forces to destroy them. The Star Destroyer was renamed the Freedom and was the first ship to fire on the Lusankya during the Battle of Thyferra. However, the Freedom also took heavy damage, and was disabled and adrift at the end of the fighting. Both Yonka and the Freedom survived, and Yonka became a member of the New Republic's commanders in chief during the struggle against Grand Admiral Thrawn. (BW, IR)
Yonna, Graf  
this man, a native of the planet Bront, was driven insane when the Empire subjugated the planet and killed his family.

When Nom Anor believed that the New Republic had established an advance base on Ebaq 9, Yoog Skell agreed that the Executor's information should be brought to the Supreme Overlord. However, when the information was discovered to have been purposely planted by agents of the Republic, in an effort to draw the Yuuzhan Vong into a trap, Yoog Skell confronted him and demanded his death.

Yorbo, who worked for Kreb Zellock, believed that the trade was more to his own benefit. When he told Zellock about it, Zellock ordered Yorbo to capture Jann, on whom he had placed a bounty. After discovering the truth behind Kez-Iban's past, Yorbo and Zellock tried to increase their fortunes by collecting the bounty on him as well. However, their plans turned sour when R2-D2 and C-3PO helped Jann and Jess Meade rescue Kez-Iban and exposed Zellock's plans. When Yorbo realized that Zellock planned to betray him, he helped Jann knock Zellock unconscious. They later split Zellock's fortune and went their separate ways. (DCAR)
Yordor  
this immense creature, native to the Forest Moon of Endor, grew long tusks of valuable ivory. (ECAR)
Yorell  
according to Corellia mythology, Yorell was a giant who was the brother of Salta. When Yorell saw that Salta was growing tired from carrying the planet throuigh space, he built a platinum cast into which the planet could be placed. (MJH)
Yoribuunt  
this immense gas giant was located on the border of Hutt Space. Its appearance from space was a swirl of red and yellow gases, mixing together in ever-changing patterns that made the planet quite beautiful to behold. (WOA22)
Yorik Coral  
this form of coral was found in the galaxy inhabited by the Yuuzhan Vong. They bio-engineered the coral to grow to massive sizes, and then formed it into living spaceships they called worldships. The worldships themselves resembled nothing more than asteroids when observed on standard scanners and sensors, allowing the Yuuzhan Vong to enter an area virtually undetected. When the Praetorite Vong invaded the galaxy, they had planned to use the dead world of Belkadan as a yorik coral breeding ground. The New Republic discovered that the Yuuzhan Vong captured slaves and used them to breed the coral. Small buds of coral were carried to captive slaves by creepers, which inserted the young buds into the slave's flesh. The coral - known as yorik-kul - kept the slave from revolting while it drew nourishment from the bodily fluids and energy of the host. It was later learned that the yorik coral used to create the Yuuzhan Vong starships aged like most other biological organism. By the time some of them reached the known galaxy, their interior components had begun to simply die out. Bioluminescent polyps stopped providing light, and organisms created to regulate temperature were unable to continue. (VP, DTO, HT, NEGW)
Yorik-akaga  
this was the Yuuzhan Vong term for one of their picket ships, used to patrol the boundaries of their naval fleets. (UF)
Yorik-et  
this was the Yuuzhan Vong term for a coralskipper. (NJOSB)
Yorik-Kul  
this was the form of yorik coral used by the Yuuzhan Vong to control their slaves. A piece of yorik-kul was implanted into the body of a slave, usually near the neck. Because the yorik-kul was linked to its parent coral, it could be sent signals that were then imposed onto the will of the victim. Over time, the yorik-kul multiplied within the body of its victim, with coral spawn taking hold throughout the victim's body. In this way, the entire body was eventually at the mercy of the original coral. The introduction of yorik-kul into a non-Yuuzhan Vong body caused physical deterioration over time, as the coral spawn consumed the energy being created by the victim. It was also discovered that, over time, yorik-kul served to cut off a victim's connection to the Force. (NEGW)
Yorik-stronha  
this was the Yuuzhan Vong version of a picket ship, although its primary mission was reconnaissance and espionage. Like all Yuuzhan Vong warships, the yorik-stronha was created from living yorik coral, and resembled nothing more than a large asteroid. These ships averaged about 228 meters in length, and allowed a crew of twelve officer and twelve warriors to observe a remote location with minimal chances of being detected. These should were well-armed, having ten volcano cannons and a complement of dovin basals in case there was any fighting. Additionally, the yorik-stronha ship could transport up 142 metric tons of cargo. (FH3, NJOSB)
Yorik-ta  
this was the basic Yuuzhan Vong form of escape pod. Roughly the size of an average landspeeder, the unarmed yorik-ta escape craft had a single dovin basal for maneuverability, and had a transparent canopy. (NEGV)
Yorik-trema  
this was a form of landing craft developed by the Yuuzhan Vong. Formed of vastiv membranes covering a skeleton of yorik coral, these craft were designed to transport forces to the surface of a planet. Most of these were unarmed, and had to be escorted by coralskippers during their descent. Yorik-trema were shaped to have a number of sensitive eye, which were trained to maintain contact with the coralskipper escort during the descent. These craft were equipped with ablative shields formed from living scales, which would be burned off during descent but later regenerated like skin tissue. The ground forces transported within the yorik-trema were discharged to the surface of a planet via modified molleung worms. The average yorik-trema measured 34 meters in length, and was sometimes armed with a pair of volcano cannons and several dovin basals. Note that The New Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels indicates that the yorik-trema was forty-eight meters in length. This craft required a crew of four to operate, and could transport up to 36 troops and 35 metric tons of cargo. (BP, NJOSB, NEGV)
Yorik-vec  
this was the primary Yuuzhan Vong assault cruiser, filling the gap between the coralskippers and the corvettes of their unusual fleet. These ships were dedicated warships, used for space combat more than transporting troops to battle arenas. On average, the Yorik-vec cruiser measured thirty meters in length, and required a creew of two pilots and three gunners to operate. The ship also had the capacity to handle eight additional passengers and up to 100 metric tons of materiel. The Yorik-vec cruiser was armed with a turret-mounted quad volcanic cannon, as well as four twin volcanic cannons. (GMR8)
Yorl Niba  
this Twi'leki entertainer often performed at the Starlight Theater, on Abregado-Rae, during the height of the New Order. He absolutely hated Brinaloy N'Vaari, because her impersonation of a Twi'leki female drew bigger crowds than any of his own shows. (ND)
Yorlin  
this Imperial stormtrooper was stationed aboard the Iron Fist during Warlord Zsinj's campaigns against the New Republic. When the Warlord hosted the senior members of the Hawk-bat Independent Space Force, Yorlin tried to rough up Lieutenant Dissek. Dissek, who was actually Kell Tainer, retaliated to the rough treatment, giving Yorlin a concussion and knocking out a few of his teeth. (IF)
Yorn  
this wealthy Baron left his holdings on the planet Coruscant and traveled to the moon Kalakar Six, a century before the Battle of Yavin. Yorn was interested in the Dark Side of the Force, and had heard that Kalakar Six was a nexus of Dark Side power. He and his followers built a lavish fortress on the moon, to serve as the base from which they explored the Dark Side of the Force. One of the regular supply ships to Kalakr Six returned to find the entire group of Dark Side devotees dead, except for Yorn, who had gone mad and ripped out his eyes and tongue. (T9)
Yorn Skot  
this gas giant was known as a source of natural tibanna gas, although it was not naturally spin-sealed like the tibanna gas found in Bespin's atmosphere. Some six years prior to the Battle of Naboo, the planet was essentially owned and governed by Clode Rhoden, without any intervention from the Old Republic. (TAE)
Yorn Skot Mining Station  
this was the largest of the tibanna gas-mining stations owned by Clode Rhoden, and situated in orbit within Yorn Skot's tibanisphere. It was targeted by the environmental terrorist group known as the Green Force, who felt that Rhoden was stripping the planet of certain gases that supported unusual forms of life. Madam Rhoden and her consort, the terrorist known as Buck, had planned to destroy the station in an effort to expose Clode Rhoden's activities. However, Clode Rhoden discovered their affair, and planned to kill them both aboard the station. That way, he could claim the station was destroyed by the Green Forge, and claim the insurance money. Their plans were thwarted by Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, and the Captain of the Aurorient Express detonated the core bomb before it could reach the station. (TAE)
Yoro  
the roots of this plant were dried and ground into a fine powder, which was then mixed with liquids to form an indelible pigment that was often used in tattooes. (VD)
Yorr  
this Imperial Captain was a former member of the Emperor's Demonstration Team, who later served as a test pilot on various TIE prototypes. He served as Jendon's wingman during several missions before co-piloting Darth Vader's personal shuttle prior to the Battle of Endor. (CCG11)
Yortal's Emporium  
this general store was owned and operated by Yortal Ixlis, in the Ahto East section of Ahto City, on the planet Manaan, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. (KOTOR)
Yorva-9  
this Lambda-class shuttle was captured by the Yuuzhan Vong, shortly after their victory at Falleen. Using a surge-coral-controlled slave, the Yuuzhan Vong flew the shuttle into evacuation efforts on worlds such as Druckenwell, where an alien ship might be stopped quickly. The use of a familiar ship allowed the Yuuzhan Vong to get close to transports and freighters carrying refugees, such as the Chilastra, so that warriors could board the refugee ships and search for Jedi Knights or other worthy beings to sacrifice. During the attempt to capture Ka-Tu-Un, the Captain of the Chilastra actually opened a landing bay for the Yorva-9, unaware of the Yuuzhan Vong crew hiding inside. (GMR8)
Yosa, Darubang  
this woman was ostensibly the leader of the Clicksticks tribe of survivors, on the planet Iego, for many years. Those beings who managed to locate her on the planet learned that she had been living on Iego for more than a century. (WOTC, GORW)
Yosger  
this being was a well-known smuggling baron who maintained a base on the moon of Carz. During the Galactic Civil War, he branched out into the profitable business of weapons running and armament supply. Yosger wasn't especially intelligent or reputable, and many of his customers were angry when he couldn't meet their orders. He was eventually neutralized by Nilya Fek'ra and a group of freelance mercenaries. (GMH)
Yoss  
this Gungan was a member of the Grand Army during the Battle of Naboo. (SWRPG)
Yot  
this hardy bean was grown on many farms on the planet Dantooine, during the last decades of the Old Republic. (SWDB)
Yoth  
meaning "hope", this was a common female name among the Mon Calamari race. (GCG)
Yotts Orren  
this Kadas'sa'Nitko smuggler worked for Jabba the Hutt as a crewman aboard the crimelord's sail barge, on the planet Tatooine, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. While in Jabba's employ, Yotts Orren failed to earnt he trust of virtually every other being working for the Hutt. It was later discovered that Yotts Orren was also stealing parts from the various shipments Jabba received, then selling them on the black market to make himself a tidy profit. (CCG12)
Young Security Squad  
after The Young defeated the elders of the Daan and Melida, they began taking steps to bring a new government to the city of Zehava and the planet Melida/Daan. Led by Nield, the new government established the Young Security Squad to ensure no further uprising occurred. The original leader of the squad was the thirteen-year-old Obi-Wan Kenobi, who had renounced his Jedi training to remain on Melida/Daan with The Young. (UP)
Young, The  
made up of the teenagers from the societies of the Melida and the Daan, The Young were considered a minor nuisance to their elders. However, The Young maintained no affiliation to either faction, instead remaining neutral despite their individual heritages. Many of them were orphaned when their parents and family were killed in one of the battles for control of Zehava. About a decade before the Battle of Naboo, The Young was formed by the disenchanted children who witnessed their parents fighting endlessly over a few square meters of ground, spending credits on military supplies while children went hungry and fell sick due to lack of medical supplies. The Young hated the way that their parents used the children as free labor in munitions factories. The Young recognized that the war was destroying viable farmland and continuing a hatred between the Melida and the Daan that was based on petty incidents in the distant past. They hated the fact that their parents revered the dead more than they cared for their own children, and stayed away from the Halls of Evidence at all times. Members of The Young rescued Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi from the Melida, in an effort to stop the violence and prevent the Old Republic from being blackmailed into taking sides the civil war. However, The Young were no less militant that their parents, and were capable of causing great damage on their own. With the help of Obi-Wan, The Young were able to convince the Middle Generation to support their cause, and eventually defeated the elders of the Daan and Melida. Their leadership was quickly shattered, though, as Nield ignored the basic needs of his people and was overruled one several counts by Cerasi and Obi-Wan. (DOD, UP)
Youngling  
this was a Basic term that was adopted by many races to describe their children. (AOTC, MJH)
Yount  
this Imperial Governor was in control of the garrison on Wakeelmui during the last years of the New Order. (CCG10)
Yo'uqiol  
this Rodian word, pronounced "YO-ooo-qui-ol," literally translated to "the hand of death." (COG)
Yo'uqiol  
this carnivorous, mobile plant was discovered by the Rodians on their colony world of Ooo-sek. The name literally means "the hand of death," and was given because of its abundance and resiliency. The Empire even collected specimens for its own experiments. The yo'uqiol appeared to be a hybrid of plant and animal species, with roots that extend below the soil to collect water and tentacles which it ued to capture its prey. The average yo'uqiol measured 30 centimeters across, although Rodian hunters have told stories of specimens which measured five meters across, and resembled a flat flower. Surrounding the central body was a flat membrane tipped with tentacles, while the body contained a mouth and stinging spines. They fed on virtually anything that stumbled upon them, and this variety of diet made them healthy and adaptable. (COG)
Your Stars and Mine  
written by Morgraine Delefrenquin, this regular feature of the Chandrilan Daily Messenger chronicled the lives and careers of the galaxy's most popular celebrities. (GFT)
Youst

Yovl  
this name was common among Sullustan males, and meant "good memory". (GCG)
Yovshin Swordsmen  
this was one of the military forces of the ancient Atrisian Empire, noted for their two-handed style of swordfighting. This style, along with the unique swords the Yovshin wielded, became known as Jar'Kai, after the city on Kitel Phard where they were based. (WOTC)
Yowvetch Custard  
this thick, rich custard was made on the planet Tatooine during the last decades of the Old Republic. (BF5)
Yoxgit  
this male Ugnaught fled Cloud City after the Empire garrisonned the outpost. He hoped to return there someday, but found work supplying various weapons for Hermi Odle and Jabba the Hutt. (CCG7)
YQ-400 Monitor  
this was a droid-controlled patrol ship produced by the Nerfworks, otherwise known as Shipyard Lab 6671-X42. Measuring 36 meters in length, the YQ-400 was armed with a pair of laser cannons and four heavy ion cannons. Its primary mission profile was to patrol the outer edges of a solar system, watching for incoming starships while running with passive sensors. When an incoming ship was spotted, the YQ-400 scanned it for identification and then passed the information onto the system's primary starship control center. If the controllers responded with an all-clear signal, the YQ-400 broke off its pursuit to return to its patrol. Until the all-clear signal was received, the YQ-400 trailed the incoming ship, prepared to fire at it if provoked. While the design of the ship was sound, the Monitor lacked enough firepower to deter a serious threat. (GMR10)
YQ-series Patrol Ship  
this was the designation of the line of droid-controlled system patrol craft which were jointly developed by the Corellian Engineering Corporation and Loronar Corporation, at the Shipyard Lab 6671-X42. Many of the designs for the YQ-series were never produced, but the YQ-400 Monitor proved to be one of the most popular ships in the series. (GMR10)
Yractos  
this was one of the largest cities found on the planet Gyndine. (HNN5)
Yrada Soludisan  
this Jedi Knight was killed aboard the Monitor III, during the attempt to smash a group of Iridium Pirates which was ambushing Old Republic supply convoys near Vuchelle, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. (HNN4)
Yrak Pootzck  
this is the term used by the True Ubese to describe those members of the Ubese culture who fled the destruction of their system and migrated to Ubertica. The phrase implies the cowardly ways and impure parentage of the Ubertica Ubese population. (SESB)
Yraka Nes  
this female Wookiee worked as the medical doctor of the Wookiees of the Myyydril Cavern, after they began contracting the Poltur Virus. She spent many months isolating the virus and locating a cure, but her natural remedies required several rare plants that required extensive journeys to harvest. This meant that she had to hire other beings to locate them, while she tended to the other Wookiees. One of the things Yraka Nes found to be effective was a blanket made from the filaments exuded by webweavers. She also made luilris mushroom pies to keep up the health and spirits of her patients. (SWGAL)
Yrashu  
this Force-sensitive race of green primates is native to the planet Baskarn. The Yrashu live in harmony with their environment, and create ceremonial maces from the roots of the Hmumfmumf tree. They eat the Mmhmm butterflies as a source of food. Those Yrashu which were tainted by the Dark Side of the Force were known collectively as The Low. They were tolerated by society, but looked down upon as delinquents and beings of low character. Most Yrashu speak in a strange language dominated by combinations of "schwa" and "mm" sounds. (SWJ2, AE)
Yresilini  
this was a dim-witted alien race known for its inability to grasp advanced concepts. Many xenobiologists considered the Yresilini to be untrainable, and therefore incapable of joining the galactic society. (GBC)
Yri Worm  
this species of blind annelid was native to the moon of Tilnes. Despite the moon's lifeless appearance, the yri managed to survive. These worms lived below the surface, riddling the crust of Tilnes with their tunnels. Worms moved through the rock by pulling themselves along with their scales. The mining operations which were established on Tilnes tried to exterminate the yri worms, because the worm tunnels made the mining passages susceptible to cave-ins. However, the meter-long yri proved to be somewhat intelligent, and began to actually fight back against the miners. Hiem Bryl went so far as to offer a fifty-credit bounty for each yri worm killed, but had to abandon the program after more than a thousand worms were brought in but the problem continued to escalate. (WOTC)
Yrk  
one of the family names used by the Bothan people, it literally meant "metalsmith" - more specifically, one who worked with precious metals. (GCG, WOTC)
Yrna  
this was once of the many names given to Duros females. Among the Duros, it meant "beguiling". (GCG)
Yrrani Basa  
this was a noted Quermian individual. (UANT)
Yrrcanna  
this black-furred Wookiee male was a former Imperial slave who had been freed shortly before the onset of the Galactic Civil War. An aggressive fighter, Yrrcanna found work at the Dool Arena on Reuss VIII, where he became a crowd favorite. (WSV)
Yrrna System  
this Outer Rim system was the site of an Imperial cargo staging area infiltrated by Ali Tarrak. (TIE)
Yrros, Naem  
this Imperial General was in charge of the subjugation of the city of Argona, on Rhamalai, during the height of the New Order. Yrros was educated at the Imperial Academy on Raithal, and took top honors in his class. His unswerving loyalty and dedication to the New Order earned him several swift promotions, but few friends. He was killed when the astromech droid R2-4B was confiscated and placed into the Imperial droid pool. R2-4B had been programmed to self-destruct if it was ever captured by the Empire, and the droid performed its duty flawlessly. (SWJ13)
YS-4279  
this was the model number of an expensive, high-end security component, used during the last decades of the Old Republic to protect computer systems. (EOS)
Ysalamir  
this was the name given to one of the slender, grey-furred creatures, native to the planet Myrkr, that naturally created null-bubbles in the Force. The bubble created by an individual ysalamir could extend up to 10 meters in diameter, and a group of ysalaimir could generate a much larger bubble. Early in their lifecycle, ysalamiri would use their long claws to attach their bodies to tree limbs and obtain nourishment from the wood. As a sessile creature, the ysalamir soon died after being separated from their perch. Ysalamiri could reach lengths up to 50 centimeters, and have fur-covered scales. (HTTE)
Ysalamiri  
this was the name given to a group of ysalamir. (HTTE)
Ysanna  
this tribe of Force-sensitives lived on modern-day Ossus. The Ysanna were the descendants of those few Jedi who managed to survive the cataclysmic events of the Great Sith War, and were able to harness some amount of the Force for their own use. The warrior-priests of the Ysanna used The Force to guide their out-dated projectile weapons, helping them obtain food and defend themselves. Their history showed that many of their ancient ancestors arrived on Ossus just following the Great Sith War, and survived the devastation wrought on the planet during the Clone Wars. The Ysanna had a bond with the tree-like, ancient Jedi Master Ood Bnar, who also survived the planet's many trials and was still alive when Luke and Kam discovered the Ysanna youths Jem and Rayf. Most Ysanna considered themselves part of a single tribe, and often added the surname "Ysanna" when referring to themselves. (DE2, GORW)
Ysanna, Jem  
this Ysanna girl was the daughter of Okko. Jem was met by Luke Skywalker and Kam Solusar when they arrived on Ossus, during the early years of the New Republic. Jem was in the midst 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 they were attacked on New Alderaan by Tedryn-sha and Krdys Mordi. Jem killed Mordi with her lightsaber in an effort to protect Luke, but was herself killed by Tedryn-sha. Luke was surprised to see her body dissapear as her spirit became one wit the Force. (DE2, SWDB)
Ysanna, Rayf  
a Ysanna, and Jem's fifteen-year-old brother. He is also tied to Ood Bnar's tree-like form when Luke Skywalker and Kam Solusar arrive on Ossus. He leaves with Jem to follow Luke and Kam, and become a Jedi Knight. He survives his sister and fights with Luke in many battles. When the Jedi tried to intercept the reborn Emperor Palpatine on Onderon, Rayf wounded the Dark Jedi T'iaz before he was consumed in the Emperor's own Force Lightning and killed. (DE2, EE)
Ysannan  
this was the language spoken by the Ysanna who lived on Ossus during the modern era of the galaxy. (EGP)
Y'sd Drum  
this was a form of drum used by the thorp elders of Malastare. The Dugs used the y'sd drums to pound out war songs, used to rally their troops into battle against the Gran. (SWI64)
YsreTech  
this corporation designed and manufactured a number of deep-space platforms used for mining and refining activities. (SWJ6)
Yssek  
this was a common name among Quarren females. It meant "delicate". (GCG)
YT-1000  
this was an outdated Corellian Engineering Corporation starship design, although it was one of the first to have the distinctive clamshell-shapde hull of the YT-series. (LAA)
YT-1150  
one of the earliest of the YT-series starships from Corellian Engineering Corporation, the YT-1150 resembled a long, oval loaf of bread which had been cut into three pieces lengthwise and layed out. (RP)
YT-1200  
this freighter was designed by the Corellian Engineering Corporation, but was eventually phased out in favor of the YT-1300. The designs for the YT-1200 were later sold to Nova-Drive, which modified them and produced the #3-Z light freighter. Many of these ships found used as suborbital transport craft, used for carrying cargo from one city to another. (SS, TCD)
YT-1210  
this Corellian Engineering Corporation light freighter was a predecessor to the YT-1300. The YT-1210 has the familiar saucer-shaped hull, but lacked the forward mandibles of the YT-1300. This craft measured some 35 meters in length, and the cockpit could be situated on either the left or right side. The basic crew consisted of a pilot and a gunner. The standard YT-1210 could carry up to 100 metric tons of cargo, and was armed with a single laser cannon. (GG6, FOP)
YT-1250  
this Corellian Engineering Corporation starship design was lightly armed in its stock form. (SFT)
YT-1300  
this series of Corellian light stock freighter built by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. Originally designed and manufactured some 30 years before the Battle of Yavin, it was a 2-man craft, and can accommodate up to six passengers. The YT-1300 measures 26.7 meters in length, and can hold 100 metric tons of cargo. The YT-1300 is armed with a single laser cannon, but carries to defensive shielding. The main hull is disk-shaped, with two trapezoidal pods extending from the front. The cockpit is offset-mounted on the right side of the disk. The top sublight speed of a YT-1300 is around 65 MGLT. 100-SBD shields protect a 50-RU hull. One of the primary drawbacks of this model transport is the off-center cockpit placement. While the cockpit can be positioned on either the left or right side, this positioning leaves a great deal of the ship out of the pilot's view. While this is common for larger ships, the off-center placement makes it much harder to maneuver in tight spaces for many new pilots. The more skittish of these captains often install five-axis, laser-ranging pods near the front mandibles, in order to provide them realtime information about the parts of the ship they can't see. (SW, SCRE, TIE, TT, E1A2)
YT-1300f  
this was a modification to the basic YT-1300 freighter produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. It was given a slightly better hyperdrive, allowing the freighter to reach its destination faster than the standard model. Because of this upgrade, the YT-1300f found a niche among transport operations shipping medical supplies to the battlefronts of the Clone Wars. (MBS)
YT-1500  
this was one of the many variants developed by the Corellian Engineering Corporation from the basic YT-series of light freighters. (SBS)
YT-1760  
this was one of the many varieties of YT-series freighters and transports produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. Measuring 20 meters in length, the YT-1760 incorporated the saucer-shaped hull of the YT-1300 with a center-mounted cockpit. Three sublight engines were arranged along the rear of the round hull. However, the YT-1760 lacked the durability of the earlier members of the YT-series, and it didn't take well to upgrades and modifications. It was produced without standard armament, and could transport up to eight passengers and 10 metric tons of cargo. (GMR2)
YT-1930  
this variant on the successful YT-1300 series was only moderately successful for the Corellian Engineering Corporation. From the central passageway forward, the YT-1930 was an exact duplicate of the YT-1300, with the exception being that the rounded cockpit was mounted between the forward mandibles. However, from the centerline back, the ship was unique. A pair of wing-like cargo bays flared outward from each side, while the drives were situated between them. The ship resembled a flying V. It measured 35 meters in length, and required a pilot and co-pilot to operate. It could transport up to six passengers and 200 metric tons of cargo with ease. It could be armed with a single, turret-mounted laser cannon. (WSV, WOTC)
YT-2000  
this Corellian Engineering Corporation light freighter was based on the venerable YT-1300 line. It measured 29 meters in length, and was armed with a pair of twin turbolasers, a laser cannon, and an ion cannon. Its cockpit was mounted in the center of the ship. (XWA)
YT-2400  
one of the light freighters in CEC's successful YT-series, the YT-2400 incorporates the saucer-shaped hull design that made the YT-1300 popular. However, the YT-2400 does not have the paired, forward-facing mandibles. It is simply the saucer hull with a heavily-braced cockpit section off to the right side. The YT-2400 has improved hull plating, power to spare, and additional space in the cargo and engine compartments. Thus, it was easily modified to accommodate larger engines and smuggling compartments. At 21 meters in length, the YT-2400 was also slightly smaller than its predecessors, although it had the capacity to transport up to six passengers and 150 metric tons of cargo. Flying the YT-2400 demanded the skills of a pilot and co-pilot. The basic configuration was simply armed with a turret-mounted laser cannon. (SE, EGV, SS)
YT-450a  
a clunky-looking transport ship from Corellian Engineering Corporation. (GMH)
YT-700  
this older Corellian Engineering Corporation starship design was a basic transport craft. It measured 21.7 meters in length. (SWJ5)
Y'taa  
a planet which petitioned the New Republic for membership during the Yevethan Great Purge. (BTS)
Ytavarg Aleema  
this near-human was the child of human and Keed parents. He was known among the Keed as a great lettranin player, and was recruited to play shockball by Ger Plortor. Ytavarg emerged as one of the galaxy's most famous shockball players, during the height of the New Order. A member of the Shad Furies, Aleema earned a great deal of credit from a lucrative contract. After a match against the Quent Assassins, which the Assassins won 21-20, Ytavarg tried to rescue Ap Kormar from being beaten by some Furies fans. They killed Kormar before Aleema could intervene, claiming that they were making an example of Kormar to warn other Alliance sympathizers against taking action. In anger, Aleema used his shockball equipment to kill all seven of the attackers, an action which earned him a short suspension from league play. However, Aleema was determined to extinguish the xenophobia embraced by the Empire, and found himself trying to join the Alliance. After making contact with an Alliance agent, Aleema offered whatever services he could, either physical or financial.

However, it was twice the size of the YT-1300 and was heavily armored, and it found favor among small businesses which made regular runs through dangerous star systems. It was also heavily armed in its standard configuration, with four double laser cannons. The YU-410 measured 44 meters in length, and required a crew of four officers and four gunners.

Yun  
the youngest of the Dark Jedi serving under Jerec, Yun was a cocky, unpredictable Epicanthrix youth striving to prove his power. Much of his original training was under the guidance of Sariss, who could not fully rein in the impulsive youth. Not physically imposing, Yun relied on the surprise he gained when attacking his opponents in brash ways. As a youth, Yun grew up on the planet Panatha, the son of wealthy mineral baron. When he came of age, Yun was sent to Bunduki by his father, to learn the patience and temperment of the Followers of Palawa. His instructors refused to teach of the teras kasi, and Yun returned to Panatha to complain to his father. The baron decided that Yun would be better schooled at home, and turned the boy's training over to his fiance', a member of the Church of the Dark Side named Sariss. The pair became very close, but Sariss refused to be drawn into an affair because of her vows to Yun's father. Angry at being rebuffed, Yun killed his father to earn her love. With this act, his fall to the Dark Side of the Force was completed, but Yun came to understand that Sariss didn't actually love him. She proceeded to seize his father's assets and turned them over to Jerec. She turned Yun's training over to Jerec as well. Jerec demanded proof of Yun's loyalty, and sent the boy back to Bunduki to execute his Palawa masters. Later, during the search for the Valley of the Jedi, Yun attempted to kill Kyle Katarn at Baron's Hed, but was defeated by Katarn. After the Valley of the Jedi was discovered on Ruusan, Katarn again spared Yun's life. Yun was then visited by the spirit of Jedi Master Qu Rahn, who urged Yun to seek redemption. Acting on this, Yun stepped in to prevent Sariss from killing Katarn. Unfortunately, Sariss showed no such mercy and killed Yun. His body was absorbed by the energy of the Valley and disappeared.

Yun-Harla  
this Yuuzhan Vong deity was known as the Cloaked Goddess, or the Trickster. She was often prayed to in tandem with Yun-Yammka, in order for the warrior to have guidance as well as strength in his battle. Yun-Harla was never visible to her servants, and was never actually portrayed in Yuuzhan Vong writings or pictures. It was believed that her body was formed from borrowed parts, and was covered with borrowed skin. Some Yuuzhan Vong even believed that Yun-Harla's eyes were villips, while others believed them to be the actual eyes of Yun-Yuuzhan, which were discarded when the Creator ascended to a higher plane of existence. Her clothing, whenever she wore it, was designed to confuse and deceive those who saw her. Thus, only her spirit actually made contact with those Yuuzhan Vong who worshipped her. Shortly after the Second Battle of Coruscant, Jaina Solo stole the frigate Ksstarr and renamed it the Trickster, as a goad to the Yuuzhan Vong priest Harrar. However, this monicker eventually became something more, as Jaina discovered how to fool Yuuzhan Vong sensors into believing that another ship was actually the Trickster. Among the subordinate Yuuzhan Vong who served Harrar, there was a growing belief that Jaina Solo was actually Yun-Harla made incarnate. This belief was based on the relationship between Yun-Harla and Yun-Yammka, which greatly resembled the relationship between Jaina and her twin brother, Jacen. At the end of the war, the Shamed One Onimi revealed to Jaina that he had come to believe she was actually Yun-Harla, since he alone of the Yuuzhan Vong could see her through the Force. (VP, DJ, DW, NJOSB, UF)
Yunkor IX  
this planet was the site of an early test of the B-Wing, in which a single B-Wing took out a TIE Fighter staging area near the world. (XW)
Yun-Ne'Shel  
this hermaphroditic Yuuzhan Vong deity was worshipped by the Shapers, and represented life itself. Yun-Ne'Shel was believed to have created all forms of life with the tools and materials presented to her by Yun-Yuuzhan. She was considered among the rest of the Yuuzhan Vong gods as something of an iedalistic fool, having preached about a peaceful galaxy where all life existed equally. Her dreams of an ideal galaxy were shattered by Yun-Harla and Yun-Yammka, the twin gods who shaped the Yuuzhan Vong civilization the most. Shapers worshipped Yun-Ne'Shel, who was known as She-Who-Shapes or The Modeler, in an organic grotto which was similar in form to a yammosk, and was created to enhance the mental abilities of any who entered it. Within the body of the grotto were nodules of flesh which were essentially mouths, filled with eight knife-like teeth, Each Shaper Adept was required to enter the chamber and meditate before placing a hand into the nodule's mouth. The teeth then closed over the wrist and bit through flesh and bone. Once the teeth clamped down, the nodule flexed and twisted ninety degrees, neatly severing the hand. The Adept was then fitted with a new hand, which was grown to provide the Shaper with the tools they used in their work. At the end of the war, the Shamed One Onimi revealed to Jaina Solo that he had come to believe that Tahiri Veila was actually Yun-Ne'Shel, since he alone of the Yuuzhan Vong could see her through the Force. (EVC, FH2, UF)
Yun'o  
this was a term used by the Yuuzhan Vong to collectively describe their pantheon of gods. (DW, UF)
Yun-Q'aah  
this Yuuzhan Vong deity was known as one of the Lovers, along with Yun-Txiin. Together, these two sibling deities protected those Yuuzhan Vong who discovered the emotion and passion of love, although they forbade relationships between castes. Worshippers of Yun-Q'aah and Yun-Txiin were part of a religious movement known as the Undying Flame. (EVC, SBS)
Yun-Shuno  
this was the most grotesque of the Yuuzhan Vong gods. Also known as the Pardoner, Yun-Shuno was the patron diety of the Shamed Ones, those Yuuzhan Vong whose bodies refused to accept implants of surge-coral and implanters during the ritual of Escalation. Among the more escalated castes, Yun-Shuno was referred to as the "many-eyed mother of snivelers." At the end of the war, the Shamed One Onimi revealed to Jaina Solo that he had come to believe her brother, Jacen, was actually Yun-Shuno, since he alone of the Yuuzhan Vong could see her through the Force. (JE, EVC, DW, UF)
Yun-Txiin  
this Yuuzhan Vong deity was known as one of the Lovers, along with Yun-Q'aah. Together, these two sibling deities protected those Yuuzhan Vong who discovered the emotion and passion of love, although they forbade relationships between castes. Worshippers of Yun-Q'aah and Yun-Txiin were part of a religious movement known as the Undying Flame. (EVC, SBS)
Yun-Yammka  
this deity was the Yuuzhan Vong god of war and carnage. Known as The Slayer, Yun-Yammka resembled a large brain with a single eye and a puckered mouth. An array of tentacles emerged from around its body. Every Yuuzhan Ving warrior kept a statue of Yun-Yammka among his possessions, and prayed to Yun-Yammka for strength in battle. After the Second Battle of Coruscant, the Yuuzhan Vong planned to retake Borleias and turn the entire planet into a shrine for the priests of Yun-Yammka, as much to appease the priests as to discredit Domain Kraal. Yun-Yammka was often associated with the Trickster goddess, Yun-Harla. Because of this, many Yuuzhan Vong began to assocate Yun-Yammka with Jacen Solo, especially after his twin sister, Jaina, adopted the guise of Yun-Harla. At the end of the war, the Shamed One Onimi revealed to Jaina that he had come to believe her uncle, Luke Skywalker, was actually Yun-Yammka, since he alone of the Yuuzhan Vong could see her through the Force. Harrar later revealed that, in fact, there was no original god named Yun-Yammka. This deity was created by the priest caste after the ur-Yuuzhan Vong were severed from the Force and took up their warring ways. (VP, EL1, DW, FH2, UF)
Yun-Yuuzhan  
this was the greatest of the deities worshipped by the Yuuzhan Vong. Yun-Yuuzhan was known as the Cosmic Lord or the Creator. Yun-Yuuzhan was considered the beginning of all that existed, and it was Yun-Yuuzhan who took parts of his own body to form the other gods as well as the Yuuzhan Vong themselves. Thus, statues of Yun-Yuuzhan often appeared incomplete, representing his own sacrifices. After the Yuuzhan Vong reformed the planet Coruscant into a representation of Yuuzhan'tar, an underground group of Shamed Ones began to spread The Message of the Jedi Knights. Nom Anor, cast out of his role as Executor because of his treachery, rallied the Shamed Ones while posing as the prophet Yu'shaa. Part of his heretical beliefs involved the true nature of the Force, and Yu'shaa theorized that the Force was actually the remnant of Yun-Yuuzhan's soul, after Yun-Yuuzhan gave birth to the universe. This theory, when repeated by countless Shamed Ones, evolved over time to state that the Force was actually the linger exhalations of Yun-Yuuzhan, instilling power in the Jedi Knights and linking the two civilizations together. (JE, EVC, FH2, NJOSB, UF)

this tall, dome-headed humanoid was the ruler of Bezim, and one of the founders of the Station 88 Spaceport. When the founders of the station met with Count Dooku on Null to discuss a possible alliance with the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Telamarch decided to side with Lorian Nod and throw his support to the Old Republic. Dooku decided that this was not an acceptable answer, and brought in twelve super battle droids in order to force an agreement. Obi-Wan Kenobi and his apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, managed to defeat the battle droids and svae the leaders, but Dooku managed to escape. (LOJ)

Yurdak Fav  
this Shistavanen Wolfman was considered a threat to the Alliance. Her great-great-grandmother was a scout for the Republic Survey Corps until Emperor Palpatine rose to power, at which time she quit. Yurdak herself went into the scouting business, working for the Uvena System Constabulary before striking out on her own. She was spotted in the vicinity of several planets which the Alliance had planned to use as safeworlds, but it was unknown whom she was working for at the time. She traveled the galaxy in her starship, the Vangaard Pathfinder Zoll-Uvena. (AIR)
Yurf Col  
this Duros served as a Commander in the New Republic military, and served under General Wedge Antilles during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. After the Battle of Duro, Yurf Col and many of his fellow Duros could barely contain their desire to return and liberate their homeworld. Col believed that his chance had come when Antilles ordered a task force to be dispatched to Duro. Unknown to Col, however, was that the mission was simply a feint, meant to draw in as many Yuuzhan Vong warships as possible. Once the enemy ships were in-system, New Republic interdictors would trap them there and destroy them. A secondary plan involved the reduction of Yuuzhan Vong forces at Fondor, allowing the Republic to retake the planet. Although Antilles feared that Col and the Duros might be too emotionally involved in the fight, he still hoped Col could be counted on to obey orders. Yurf Col, however, refused to simply sit back and watch his forces whittled away while more and more Yuuzhan Vong warships entered the arena. Col, furious with Antilles' seeming unconcern about the fate of the Duro System, resigned his commission. Col's forces, including his own ship Dpso and several Duros-commanded warships, tried to break ranks and attack the aliens themselves. However, without the support of the rest of the New Republic fleet, all the Duros ships were destroyed by Yuuzhan Vong forces. (FP)

Yus Sh'roth  
this was one of the small group of Shamed Ones who lived with Vuurok I'pan beneath the surface of Coruscant, after the planet had been transformed into a likeness of Yuuzhan'tar. Sh'roth was once a Shaper, and was one of the older members of I'pan's small cadre of friends. Like the rest of their cadre, Sh'roth believed that the Jedi Knights were not abominations, but saviors of the Shamed Ones and symbols of the new ideology which should be embraced by the Yuuzhan Vong. For this reason, their band remained small, in case they were captured by the Yuuzhan Vong warriors. This ensured that their small cult of Jedi followers would never be fully discovered. Sh'roth was serving sentry duty when the small band of heretics was discovered by Yuuzhan Vong warriors. Sh'roth was the first to die as the warriors attacked the Shamed Ones mercilessly. (FH1)
Yusanis  
this man was one of the most famous and feared of the Echani warriors who were active in the galaxy during the decades leading up to the Jedi Civil War. He was a decorated solider who was considered one of the greatest heroes of the Mandalorian Wars. Later, when Yusanis discovered that an Echani Senator had been killed by Darth Revan, he set out to confront the Sith Lord and bring him to justice. Despite his own skills and the special weapons of cortosis-weave that he used, Yusanis was quickly defeated by Darth Revan and forced to submit. Darth Revan held no compassion, and killed Yusanis in cold blood. It was later discovered that Yusanis was the father - figuratively and literally - of the Echani Handmaidens. (KOTOR, KOTOR2)

Yu'shaa  
this was the name adopted by Nom Anor after he survived a Yuuzhan Vong attack on a Shamed One enclave on Coruscant, after the alien invaders transformed the planet into a simulacrum of Yuuzhan'tar. The name, which translated into the Basic language as "The Prophet", was meant to indicate that Nom Anor had decided to become the living vessel for carrying The Message to the rest of the Shamed Ones. He began gathering legions of Shamed Ones to his cause, furthering The Message of the Jedi while building a base of power rfom which he could strike back at Supreme Overlord Shimrra and the rest of the Yuuzhan Vong who had turned their backs on him. As Yu'shaa, Nom Anor wore a hideous mask that represented Shimrra and the Yuuzhan Vong gods. He wore the mask at the beginning of his speeches, but soon removed it to reveal his own visage. Of course, his own face was covered with an ooglith masquer, but Yu'shaa's removal of the mask symbolized the throwing off of the old ways and the old gods. Among the heretical beliefs proposed by Yu'shaa was the theory that the Force was actually the soul of Yun-Yuuzhan, cast into the universe when Yun-Yuuzhan created it. His ruse was revealed on the planet Zonama Sekot, after Tahiri told Harrar and Corran Horn that it had been Nom Anor who killed Nen Yim. When Nom Anor returned to Shimrra on Coruscant and was escalated to Prefect of Yuuzhan'tar, the Shamed Ones did not falter in their belief of Yu'shaa. Instead, they made the Prophet a martyr, killed at the hands of Shimrra himself for his pursuit of the living planet Zonama Sekot. Much to the relief of the believers, Yu'shaa reappeared, and warned them that their plans to disrupt Shimrra's grand ceremony had been discovered. Kunra, however, was noy about to let Nom Anor put a stop to the plans of the Shamed Ones. He twisted the warnings to encite the masses, forcing Yu'shaa to lead his people into battle. Nom Anor found himself caught between two masters, but his quest for power was smashed when Shimrra odered the World Brain of Coruscant to destroy the planet, rather than have it fall into the hands of the Galactic Alliance. Angry that Shimrra had cast him aside, Nom Anor shed his Prefect's robes and took up the cloak of a Shamed One. He led the Shamed Ones into battle as Yu'shaa, demanding that the Yuuzhan Vong warriors be slaughtered. (FH1, FH2, FP, UF)

Yuuzhan Vong  
this race of beings was native to an extra-galactic galaxy which was devastated by warfare and biotechnology. Evolving first on the planet Yuuzhan'tar, the Yuuzhan Vong worshipped a complex pantheon of gods. Ancient texts discovered by Yuuzhan Vong scholars revealed that, at some point in the distant past, their homeworld was invaded by a highly technological race. More machine that living flesh, these invaders set out to destroy the Yuuzhan Vong. The Yuuzhan Vong, in turn, called upon their gods for help. Although the exact nature of the assistance was clouded by time, the gods provided the Yuuzhan Vong with information on how to use living resources into weapons. After defeating the technological beings who had invaded their world, the Yuuzhan Vong believed themselves to be the chosen masters of their galaxy, a right bestowed upon them by their gods. This new-found pride, along with the skills of war, drove the Yuuzhan Vong away from their gods, and was believed to have resulted in their disconnection with the Force. When individual clans finally conquered all worlds in their galaxy, they began warring amongst themselves. In a millennia-long battle known as the Cremlevian War, Yuuzhan Vong tribes fought to exterminate each other, laying waste to most of their habitable planets. With the end of the Cremlevian War and the unification of the clans, the Yuuzhan Vong found themselves living in a galaxy that contained dead and lifeless worlds. Taking to the stars, they set out to cross the intergalactic void to find a new home, a journey which would take thousands of years and end with the discovery of the New Republic. Roughly humanoid in shape, they often mutilated their bodies with scars and tattoos in order to prove their worth to their gods. Being from another galaxy, the Yuuzhan Vong cellular structure contained no midi-chlorians, thereby rendering them untouchable to the Force. The fleshy faces of the Yuuzhan Vong are distinguished by several key features, in addition to the scars and tattoos that define their social standing: bluish sacks beneath their eyes, sloping foreheads, and lipless mouths. They were masters of organic technology, using all sorts of lesser creatures to perform highly advanced tasks. However, they frowned upon biological diversity, and took severe steps to wipe out or subjugate the other species encountered in their home galaxy. The Yuuzhan Vong society was broken down into three primary castes - warriors, shapers, and intendants - and the minor castes of workers and priests. Much of the Yuuzhan Vong society was centered on the worship of several gods and goddesses, and the belief in those deities forces each member of society to understand his or her place in the universe. Each ritual scarring and tattooing added to the social stature of an individual, and the pattern of disfigurement provided information about the individual's class. It was later discovered that the Yuuzhan Vong had visited the known galaxy some fifty years before their attacks on Belkadan and Dubrillion, when Anki Pace found the remains of a warrior on Bimmiel. After destroying almost every habitable world in their own galaxy, the Yuuzhan Vong created a fleet of worldships and set out to locate another galaxy which they could conquer and inhabit. Somehow, they had penetrated the hyperspacial disturbance which isolated the known galaxy and traveled across the intergalactic gulf. This journey took "incalculable millennia", and was predicated on the death of the original Yuuzhan Vong homeworld, Yuuzhan'tar. Vast numbers of genetic and cellular samples were taken from Yuuzhan'tar, in order for the Yuuzhan Vong to survive the trip. Chief among these samples were the cells of the World Brain that lived at the heart of the planet. The journey necessitated the use of living ships to assist in surviving the journey, which ended when this galaxy was discovered. The initial foray to Bimmiel served as advance intelligence, and gave the Yuuzhan Vong some idea of what life forms existed in the galaxy, as well as their military strength. After establishing a base on Belkadan, the Vong began capturing pirates and enslaving them as laborers on Belkadan. They used gricha larva to form huge, shell-like dwellings wherever they traveled, creating living chambers inside the spiralled nacreous material of the shell. After the Battle of Ithor, it was learned that the Yuuzhan Vong had been experimenting with the various alien species they had displaced while invading the galaxy. Most of the specimens died or were sacrificed, due to their inability to withstand the unusual biological manipulations of the Yuuzhan Vong. Eventually, the Yuuzhan Vong pushed into the Core Worlds and captured Coruscant. The cityworld was quickly demolished, with many structures being destroyed by falling skyhooks and satellites. A World Brain was installed in a yorik coral cavern, and the planet Yuuzhan'tar was rebuilt as the new Yuuzhan Vong homeworld. For many months, a sort of peace existed between the Yuuzhan Vong and the New Republic, as both sides paused to rebuild their forces and defend what each held. This changed at the Battle of Ebaq, where Warmaster Tsavong Lah and his forces were soundly defeated. Tsavong Lah himself was killed in combat by Jaina Solo, and Supreme Overlord Shimrra vowed to destroy anything that got in the way of galactic conquest. However, it was the rediscovery of the planet Zonama Sekot that helped bring the two sides together. Luke Skywalker, Jacen Solo, and the priest Harrar were on Zonama Sekot when it fled the Klasse Ephemora System, and spent many days trying to commune with Sekot. When they did, Harrar revealed that some Yuuzhan Vong believed that they had not fled their home galaxy, but instead had been exiled from it. When Jacen reasoned that this exile might have involved separating the Yuuzhan Vong from the Force, Sekot understood why the Yuuzhan Vong were not visible to the Jedi. They had been stripped of any connection to the Force by their gods - in actuality, the Force itself - a painful act of separation that the Yuuzhan Vong had been trying to reconcile for generations. Only the Shaper Onimi was able to ever regain the connection, after grafting yammosk cells to his own neural pathways, thereby restoring "innocent" living tissue to his Yuuzhan Vong cells. The war between the Yuuzhan Vong and the Galactic Alliance came to an end at Coruscant, after Zonama Sekot appeared and both Shimrra and Onimi were killed in battle. The cost of the war was estimated to have been some 365 trillion beings, but in the end the Yuuzhan Vong were allowed to surrender and find their place within the galaxy. Many chose to commit suicide rather than surrender, and many others simply fled into the galaxy's farthest reaches. However, the Galactic Alliance and the Jedi Knights agreed that Zonama Sekot was the true home of the Yuuzhan Vong, especially in light of the revelations made by Sekot itself. Although a handful of Yuuzhan Vong remained opposed to any sort of surrender, those who returned to Coruscant were transported to Zonama Sekot. The planet, which was actually the offspring of Yuuzhan'tar, took the Yuuzhan Vong and fled into hyperspace, to find a new home somewhere in the Unknown Regions.

Yuuzhan'tar  
this was the name of the long-lost homeworld of the Yuuzhan Vong race. In the native language of the Yuuzhan Vong, the name meant "Creche' of the Gods." It had been abandoned many millennia ago, when the Yuuzhan Vong fled into space to seek out a new galaxy in which to live. Much of the planet was governed by the predatory nature of its indigenous species, a characteristic which manifested itself in the social consciousness of the Yuuzhan Vong. Some 25 years after the Battle of Endor, after the Yuuzhan Vong began their invasion of the galaxy, they targetted the planet Coruscant as a replacement for Yuuzhan'tar. In addition to the fact that Coruscant was located near the center of the galaxy, the loss of the capital planet would serve to fracture the already brittle New Republic. Master Shaper Ch'Gang Hool oversaaw the development of several dhuryam candidates, and allowed Vergere and Nom Anor to allow Jacen Solo to interact with the candidates. After taking Coruscant from the Republic and destroying all its orbital satellites, skyhooks, and other technology, the planet was seeded with lichens and mosses which broke down the various building materials used to construct the city-world. Then, once the World Brain was installed in a yorik coral bunker, Vongforming began in earnest. Within months, Coruscant's urban landscape had been transformed into a passable simulacrum of Yuuzhan'tar. The Yuuzhan Vong went so far as to destroy one of Coruscant's larger moons, using the debris to create the Rainbow Bridge and further seed the planetary resources. Immense dovin basals dragged Coruscant into a tighter orbit around its star, giving the planet a more tropical atmosphere. However, Jacen Solo's relationship with the dhuryam that controlled the planet and its reformation was seemingly stronger than any relationship the dhuryam had to a Yuuzhan Vong, for it agreed to help him cause all manner of trouble with the completion of Coruscant's transformation. Eventually, this forced Supreme Overlord Shimrra to command a huge sacrifice be made to the gods, to show them that the planet - and the galaxy - was ready for conquering. This ceremony was thwarted by the Shamed Ones who rallied behind the message of the Prophet, Yu'shaa. Shortly afterward, the Yuuzhan Vong on the planet awoke to find that the living planet of Zonama Sekot had traveled from across the galaxy into a position above the planet. Zonama Sekot destroying the Rainbow Bridge which had been created in orbit around the planet, and scattered the remaining three moons into new locations. This set off a number of seismic events that rocked the planet to its core, damaging or destroying the work of the Yuuzhan Vong. The sudden appearance of the planet forced the Yuuzhan Vong military leaders to break off their attack on Mon Calamari and return to the Core. During the final battle for control of the galaxy, Zonama Sekot acted purely in a defensive mode, choosing to "fight without fighting" against the Yuuzhan Vong. After the deaths of Shimrra and Onimi forced the alien invaders to surrender, Sekot revealed that the planet - as well as its own consciousness - were actually the offspring of long-lost Yuuzhan'tar. The ancient planet had shed a piece of itself and flung it into the intergalactic void, hoping that someday it would awaken and evolve into a new homeworld for the Yuuzhan Vong. The Galactic Alliance, acting with this knowledge and the advice of Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, agreed to spare any Yuuzhan Vong who surrendered. These individuals were transferred to Zonama Sekot, which welcomed them with open arms as long as they chose to ignore their warring ways and try to live in peace. Zonama Sekot then fled into the Unknown Regions to allow the Yuuzhan Vong to find their way in peace. (DJ, T, FP, UF)
Yuvern System  
a planetary system located in the Oplovis Sector, Yuvern was the site of an Alliance battle with the Oplovis fleet during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (RASB)
Yuyu  
this was the Jawa word for "yes". (TG)
Yuz  
meaning "negative" - or, more literally, "empty", in reference to a phase of Rodia's moon - this was one of the most common names among Rodian females. These names generally described characteristics of historical individuals, and different Rodian clans used up to three names to describe an individual. (GCG)
Yuzz  
this was the name of the language spoken by the Yuzzem race. There was no written form of the Yuzz language, which was made up of a collection of growls, roars, and mewls which were unpronounceable by other races. (UANT)
Yuzzem  
this race of fur-covered humanoids was native to the planet Ragna III. They were feline in stature, with long snouts and tremendous strength. They awee tall aliens with a tempermental disposition. Their massive arms reach all the way to the ground, even when standing, and ended in huge hands. They were reported to have the strength and stamina of three men, and also suffered from long, intense hangovers when they get drunk. They were enslaved by the Empire and used in labor camps. Luke and Leia team up with two Yuzzem after escaping from Grammel's prison on Mimban. (SME, EGA)
Yuzzum  
an alien race native to Endor's forest moon, Yuzzums were actually a variety of fur-covered mammals who were part of the same zoological family as the Ewoks. They had round, furry bodies supported by long, thin legs. These long legs were used to keep the Yuzzum's head just barely above the savanna grasses of the Dragon's Pelt, where the Yuzzumi hunted for ruggers. Their wide mouths were filled with pointed teeth, and their eyes seemed to glow. Rather than walking, the Yuzzumi rode about on large, three-meter-tall spider-like creatures. Individual Yuzzum had a fair amount of intelligence, but seemed incapable of understanding other lifeforms. They were once taken off the Sanctuary Moon and sold as pets, but their nature did not make them very good pets. The Yuzzum had a musical language, and many - like Joh Yowza - found employment offworld as singers. As a people, the Yuzzum were a warlike race, although this trait often overshadowed their natural cunning and curiosity. Individual Yuzzum were known to reach the age of fifty standard years or more. (HTTE, AT, ISU, CCG7, GORW)
Yuzzum  
this was the native language of the Yuzzumi race. It was considered by many linguists to have been the root language of Ewokese. The Yuzzum language was unusual in that it was based on songs, and lacked any written form. (IWST, GORW)

YV-100  
this was the first of Corellian Engineering Corporation's YV-series transports, produced during the early years of the New Order. Technically, the YV-series was superior to the popular YT-series, but lacked the YT's upgradability. The YV-100 was shaped like an arrowhead, with a box-like cockpit mounted on a central spine. The main hull resembled that of the YT-1300, while two large sublight engines and two ion engines were mounted across the flatten rear section. Although the ship was moderately powered, this allowed CEC to sell the ships at a reduced cost. At 46.5 meters in length, the YV-100 was one of the larger ships produced in this YV series, and it required a pilot and co-pilot to operate. It could transport up to ten passengers and 150 metric tons of cargo, and was armed with a pair of blaster cannons and two laser cannons. (GMR2)
YV-260  
this Corellian Engineering Corporation light freighter measured 41.5 meters in length, and produced during the last years of the Old Republic. (TF)
YV-330  
this Corellian Engineering Corporation freighter design incorporated the rectangular cockpit of the earlier YV-100 transport, but was created as a smaller ship for individual use. At 26 meters in length, the YV-330 was easy to operate, but suffered from the lack of upgradability which plagued the YV series. In its stock form, the YV-330 was armed with a pair of blaster cannons, and could transport up to six passengers and 5 metric tons of cargo. Many owners paid extra to have their YV-3300's upgraded to support additional weaponry, for added protection from pirates. (GMR2, TCG8)
YV-545  
this Corellian Engineering Corporation freighter was developed to replace the aging YT-series freighters, but it never quite gained the popularity of its predecessor. The YV-545 had a long, tall, narrow hull, with the cockpit and living space located at the top. The engine section was distinguished by a pair of maneuvering fins. This design made the YV-545 more maneuverable and a bit sturdier than the YT-series, but it lacked the visual appeal of the YT-1300. (RESB)
Y-v-6  
this was a type of sublight drive system used by Suwantek Systems on the TL-1800 transport. It was extremely reliable, requiring only yearly maintenance. (SS)
YV-664  
this Corellian Engineering Corporation freighter was produced during the height of the New Order. It had the familiar saucer-shaped hull of the YT-series, but had its two forward mandible arms mounted at the outer edge of the hull, oppose one another. The drive section was similar to that of a YT-1300. In between the two mandibles were four escape pods. The cockpit was mounted on the right side of the ship, at the base of the right-hand mandible. While the YV-664 possessed a balanced combination of speed, cargo space, and durability, the positioning of the cockpit caused many blindspots for pilots. (TCG3)
YV-666  
this Corellian Engineering Coroporation light freighter design was unique in shape from many other transports. It had a large, rectangular main section at the front of the ship that was used for cargo storage. A small bridge pod was mounted on the front end of the rectangle. The rear of the ship was needle-shaped power core and engine drive system. Attached to this rear section were a pair of extendable maneuvering vanes. The ship measured twenty-three meters in length. (EGC, EGV, NEGV)
YV-888  
this Corellian Engineering Corporation light freighter as produced during the early years of the New Republic. (SBS)
YV-929  
this was the last of the YV-series transports produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation. At 22 meters in length, the YV-929 was a small ship that was marketed as an "armed freighter," designed to give small shippers and merchants a fighting chance to survive pirate raids and ambushes. Built on the same keel as the original YV-100, the fuselage of the YV-929 was enhanced with a pair of external bays that increased its cargo capacity. A domed "parlor" was added below the cockpit, in an effort to make the ship appeal to a more civilian audience. Unfortunately, all of these structural modifications left the YV-929 with little integrity. Many of these ships started popping their seems as soon as the shields were breached, limiting the ship's ability to survive a firefight. The YV-929 was armed with a pair of double turbolaser cannons, two ion cannons, two triple blasters, and four concussion missile launchers. The basic crew included a pilot and three gunners, and could carry up to six passengers and 150 metric tons of cargo. (GMR2)
Yvara  
this planet, located within the Kathol Rift, was the homeworld of the Yvarema race. It was a dry, temperate planet of low mountains and fungus-covered plains. It orbited a blue-white star in Kathol Sector. The average day on Yvara lasted 36 standard hours, while its year lasted 453 local days. (KR)
Yvarema  
this species of humanoids was one of the rare examples of a hive mind which evolved in a non-insectoid, mammalian species. There were no mindless drones in Yvarema soceity, and each individual was able to develop a personality on its own. However, their intelligence was ensconced in the being known as the Majjvara, while the Majjvara was completely dependent on the rest of Yvarema society for her survival. The average Yvarema was a bulky humanoid with furred head and shoulders, a scaled torso and legs, and a short, thick tail. Their society was broken into four distinct groups, in addition to the Majjvara herself. Workers were the most common Yvarema, being neuter individuals with strong muscles and great stamina. Explorer-scouts had a fat- and water-storing hump on their backs, and were thinner than the workers. Their role was to locate food and resources for the group. Lore gatherers are among the longest-lived Yvarema, second only to the Majjvara in longevity. Their role is to act as librarians and scholars for Yvarema society. The royal explorers were extremely limited in number, and were developed during the modern era of the galaxy after the Yvarema discovered space travel. Unfortunately for the Yvarema, their strong bodies and limited individual intelligence made them prime targets for slavers who worked in the Kathol Outback. Those Yvarema who were separated from their homeworld felt an unending urge to return to their homeworld of Yvara. (KR)

YVH 1  
developed by Tenandro Arms and known as Yuuzhan Vong Hunters, this was a line of specially-programmed military droids, designed to combat the increasingly dangerous Yuuzhan Vong threat to the galaxy. First activated some twenty-seven years after the Battle of Yavin, the YVH-1 was given top-of-the-line search-and-indentify engineering, allowing it to distinguish between the alien invaders and the citizens of the New Republic. It was heavily armed, having a variable-output blaster cannon in its right arm and an adaptable left arm which could accept heavy lasers, projectile launchers, and sonic rifles. The YVH 1 was protected by layers of laminanium armor, giving the droid regenerative armor plating. In stature, the YVH-1 was strikingly similar to a Yuuzhan Vong warrior, although it was never learned if this was intentional and meant to provoke the alien invaders. Because of their appearance, they were often referred to as Yuuzhandroids. As the war against the Yuuzhan Vong wore on, Lando Calrissian had the droids programmed with coded messages for use as war cries. More often than not, the war cries were in the Yuuzhan Vong language, and made known the fact that machines were superior to the Yuuzhan Vong. (SBS, EL1)
YVH 1-1A  
this was the designation of the very first YVH 1 prototype combat droid, produced by Tendrando Arms and demonstrated to Chief of State Borsk Fey'lya, some two years into the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Despite having most of its targeting and combat programming disabled or inhibited because of the public nature of the demonstration, YVH 1-1A nonentheless positively identified the Yuuzhan Vong assassins smuggled onto Coruscant by Bjork Umi and eliminated them. When YVH 1-1A realized that its blasters had been set permanently to a low-power setting, it was forced to revert to other methods of attacking the assassins, including crushing a Yuuzhan Vong warrior in its arms. YVH 1-1A was later assigned to the Jedi strike force which was allowed to be captured by the Yuuzhan Vong, in an effort to infiltrate the worldship laboratory near Myrkr and destroy the voxin queen. YVH 1-1A identified Anakin Solo as the commander of the mission, and referred to the other members as "Private," in keeping with the seemingly military nature of the mission. YVH 1-1A then served as the leader of the droid forces on the mission, coordinating the activities of YVH 2-1S and YVH 2-4S. After ensuring that the Jedi strike team was aboard the Exquisite Death, YVH 1-1A returned to Lando Calrissian. During the evacuation of the planet Coruscant, YVH 1-1A was instrumental in recovering Ben Skywalker and C-3PO from the hold of the Byrt. 1-1A then traveled to Borleias with the remnants of the New Republic. Over time, YVH 1-1A began to develop a personality, and spent a great deal of time harassing Lando. 1-1A and Lando were assigned as pilots of the Record Time, during Luke Skywalker's plan to filtrate Coruscant. The pair had to fake the destruction of the ship, allowing Luke's insertion team to reach the surface while escaping themselves. (SBS, EL1)
YVH 1-24A  
this Tendrando Arms Yuuzhan Vong Hunter One droid was part of the team assembled by Lando Calrissian to rescue Ben Skywalker and C-3PO from the hold of the Byrt during the evacuation of Coruscant, when the Yuuzhan Vong attacked the capital of the New Republic. (SBS)
YVH 1-25A  
this Tendrando Arms Yuuzhan Vong Hunter One droid was part of the team assembled by Lando Calrissian to rescue Ben Skywalker and C-3PO from the hold of the Byrt during the evacuation of Coruscant, when the Yuuzhan Vong attacked the capital of the New Republic. Unfortunately for the droid, it was the first to encounter a Yuuzhan Vong singularity mine aboard the ship, and was destroyed when it was sucked into the miniature black hole. (SBS)
YVH 1-302A  
this was one of the first Tendrando Arms YVH 1 droids provided to General Ba'tra during the Second Battle of Coruscant. (SBS)
YVH 1-32A  
this Tendrando Arms Yuuzhan Vong Hunter One droid was part of the team assembled by Lando Calrissian to rescue Ben Skywalker and C-3PO from the hold of the Byrt during the evacuation of Coruscant, when the Yuuzhan Vong attacked the capital of the New Republic. (SBS)
YVH 1-507A  
this was one of the Tendrando Arms YVH 1 combat droids assigned to protect Han and Leia Organa Solo, some two years after the Yuuzhan Vong first invaded the galaxy. Its primary mission was to protect the Solos, but it was also responsible for the life of Ben Skywalker, who was stayed on Coruscant with them. YVH 1-507A discovered that a pair of Yuuzhan Vong had infiltrated the Eastport docking facility, and eliminated them before they could harm anyone. YVH 1-507A later ascertained that Viqi Shesh was using an ooglith masquer while posing as the refugee woman Welda, thereby thwarting Shesh's attempt to harm the Solos. However, Shesh had left behind an active thermal detonator. In a valiant effort to save as many people as it could, YVH 1-507A took the detonator to an empty docking bay and allowed it to explode. The droid was vaporized in the resulting explosion. (SBS)
YVH 2-1S  
this was one of two Tendrando Arms Yuuzhan Vong Hunter S-series droids assigned to the Jedi Knight strike team which tried to eliminate the voxyn queen at Myrkr, some two years into the alien invasion of the galaxy. Along with YVH 2-4S, YVH 2-1S rode along in the hold of the Stardream until Duman Yaght and the Exquisite Death intercepted the yacht. While the Jedi were being impounded, the two droids attached themselves to the exterior of the Exquisite Death and awaited a signal from Anakin Solo to begin their attack. YVH 2-1S took heavy fire during the capture of the Yuuzhan Vong warship, and had to undergo extensive repairs in order to remain functional. The repairs did little to make the droid operational, and 2-1S made the ultimate sacrifice by allowing itself to assist in helping Ulaha Kore escape from Myrkr. While the Bith fled in the Exquisite Death, 2-1S flew into space and detonated a huge explosive device, destroying itself in order to take out the Yuuzhan Vong ships which moved to intercept Kore. (SBS)
YVH 2-4S  
this was one of two Tendrando Arms Yuuzhan Vong Hunter S-Series droids assigned to the Jedi Knight strike team which tried to eliminate the voxyn queen at Myrkr, some two years into the alien invasion of the galaxy. Along with YVH 2-1S, YVH 2-4S rode along in the hold of the Stardream until Duman Yaght and the Exquisite Death intercepted the yacht. While the Jedi were being impounded, the two droids attached themselves to the exterior of the Exquisite Death and awaited a signal from Anakin Solo to begin their attack. Once the Jedi had control of the ship, they were able to reach Myrkr, but their attempt to infiltrate the Baanu Rass was initially thwarted. YVH 2-4S allowed itself to be destroyed in the space above the worldship, thereby providing a distraction that allowed the surviving Jedi to get abaord it. (SBS)
YVH S-series  
developed by Tendrando Arms, this was a specialized version of the Yuuzhan Vong Hunter One combat droid. It was given a unique form of laminanium armor plating, which had the ability to mimic the surroundings of the droid and provide excellent camouflage. (SBS)
YVH-M  
this combat droid was derived from the original YVH-1 Yuuzhan Vong Hunter droid. Lando Calrissian and his confederates took the central processing unit of the lumbering YVH-1 and extracted the key programming, then stored it in a miniature processor that fit inside the chassis of an MSE-6 mouse droid. This new droid had several advantages over the larger unit. First, it could move about in almost any location, following any individual it suspected of being a Yuuzhan Vong infiltrator. Second, because mouse droids were used throughout the galaxy, and because nobody ever paid them any heed, the YVH-M could move about in virtual obscurity while it searched for possible Yuuzhan Vong individuals. (DW)
YVH-M-1  
this was the first of the YVH-M droids produced by Lando Calrissian. It was given to Mara Jade Skywalker, who used the droid to locate Yuuzhan Vong infiltrators on Heurkea, shortly before the Battle of Ebaq. (DW)
Yvonne Targis  
this near-human female was the proprietor of Mos Eisley's transport depot. (GG7)
Y-Wing  
this was the common name of the Koensayr BTL Longprobe Starfighter. Originally designed for long range reconnaissance, this J-type snub fighter has twin-propulsion systems behind a single cockpit. The BTL-A4 is a 16-meter-long, one-man fighter with space for an astromech droid. The BTL-S3 is a two-man fighter, also equipped with an astromech droid. They can make 80 MGLT at sublight speeds, and can maneuver at 1,000 kilometers per hour in an atmosphere. Because the Y-Wing required constant repairs, the Alliance - and many other independent parties - stripped off the outer hull covering the craft, aft of the cockpit, to make repairs easier to execute. The durability of the Y-Wing made it a staple in the Alliance's starfighter corps, and it was rumored that the Alliance lost more Y-Wings than any other ship type during the Galactic Civil War. It boasts the following shipboard systems: 
* Gax Revival Life Support System 
* R2 Astromech Unit for Navigation 
* 2 ArMek SW4 Laser Cannons mounted on top 
* Titanium Reinforced Alusteel Alloy Hull (rated at 40 RU) 
* Thiodyne O-3R Ionization Reactor 
* Koensayr R300-H Hyperdrive Motivation Unit 
* Long Range Phased Tachyon Detection Array Model Number PA-9r 
* Short Range Primary Threat Analysis Grid Number PG-7u 
* 2 Disk Ventrals for maneuvering 
* Cryogenic Power Cells 
* Subpro NH-7 Avionics Control Package 
* Fabritech ANs-5d Sensor Unit 
* SI 5G7 Quickscan Vector Imaging Crosshairs 
* 2 Koensayr R200 Ion Fission Engines 
* 2 Taim and Bak KX5 Laser Cannons mounted on nose (early versions and many BTL-S3's used IX4 cannons) 
* Novaldex Power Generator 
* Chempat Shield Projector (rated at 75 SBD) 
* Fabritech ANc-2.7 Tracking Computer 
* Arakyd Flex Tube Proton Torpedo Launchers (2 racks of 4 each)

Note that there was a specially-built version of the Y-Wing bomber which appeared in the Marvel Comics Star Wars series, which had a cockpit that was big enough for four beings to move about in comfortably. It even had an airlock which allowed its occupants to move from ship to ship. (SW, SCRE, SWSB, IG1, ICS, CHRN, LTA2)
Ywllandr System  
this star system saw heavy fighing during the final stages of the Clone Wars. The Confederacy of Independent Systems initially took control of the system, using it as the choke point in a scheme which forced Republic starships to travel through the system to reach other parts of the Outer Rim Territories. Jedi Master Plo Koon took the Courageous and a small fleet to the Ywllandr System, and tried to remove the Separatist threat. (E3N)

one of the earliest Corellian Engineering Corporation transport designs, they were considered outdated during the period surrounding the Battle of Naboo. (RP)
YZ-775  
this Corellian Engineering Corporation transport was promoted as a ship that would allow merchants to protect their cargoes from ambushes and raids. However, this claim was taken with a grain of salt when it came to its actual design. The YZ-775 was adapted from the design of the Corellian Gunship, measured 52 meters in length, and was armed with a pair of turbolaser cannons, two twin laser cannons, and two proton torpedo tubes. Its crew of eight handled all shipboard systems, and the YZ-775 could transport up to fourteen passengers and 400 metric tons of cargo. Its huge sublight engines and enhanced shield systems made the YZ-775 more of a paramilitary transport than a shipping vessel. Despite its military appearance, the YZ-775 found its greatest acceptance among independent cargo haulers. (GMR2, GMR9)
YZ-900  
following in the tradition of the YZ-775, the Corellian Engineering Corporation's YZ-900 was capital ship-sized cargo vessel which appeared to be more of a paramilitary assault craft. Measuring 54.3 meters in length, the YZ-900 was armed with a pair of heavy twin laser cannons, two double laser cannons, and a pair of concussion missile launchers that fired fore and aft. The YZ-900 required a crew of eight to operate, including gunners, and could carry up to fourteen passengers and 500 metric tons of cargo. (GMR2)
Yzalli, Eamon  
this was Corran Horn's alias when he went undercover and worked for Mosh Barris on Garqi. Yzalli was a native of Alderaan who devised a clever plan to expose the rebellion on Garqi, but he would actually free them from Barris' prisons and implicate the Prefect as a traitor to the Empire. Yzalli was to be executed by Barris for his "treachery," but instead sent a coded message to Kirtan Loor. The message implicated Barris in the escape of the Star's Delight, and claimed that he was planning to usurp Governor Tadrin and turn Garqi over to the New Republic. Horn later used the Yzalli alias, this time as a ship's mechanic aboard the Mimban Cloudrider when Rogue Squadron first pirated from Ysanne Isard's bacta cartel. (TFE, BW, SWJ7)

Z-10 Seeker  
a Starfeld starship design, the Z-10 was originally targetted for use by scouts and traders. The Z-10 never gained a foothold in that market, however, and Starfeld began selling it in other markets. It was designed to be fast and maneuverable, and many of its systems were poorly adapted for combat use when modified. A sleek ship, the Z-10 had a pair of cargo pods slung below its central fuselage. Measuring 20.3 meters in length, the ship required a pilot to operate and could transport two passengers and up to 45 metric tons of cargo. It was armed with a front-mounted Prm-3 autoblaster which was hardwired into the sensor package. (SS)

Z2-1B  
this 2-1B series medical droid was one of the few examples of its kind to go rogue, adopting an independent agenda that it set out to accomplish on its own. Known as "The Doctor" by its creations, Z2-1B was once a regular medical droid, until sometime during the New Order, when a lethal plague wiped out the entire population of the planet on which it was working. Z2-1B continued to investigate a possible cure for the plague for many months after the deaths of its human companions, before realizing that it needed help to complete its mission. Lacking organic resources, Z2-1b began to create droids to serve as its assistants. Over time, Z2-1B came to realize that organic life was fragile at best, and that its droids would serve another set of organic masters until they died as well, leaving the droids behind once again. With this realization, Z2-1B suddenly found that it believed humans to be inferior to droids. With this realization came the drive for independence, and Z2-1B set out to develop what it considered the "perfect" droid, using his existing creations as a baseline for his work. (WOTC)

Z-6  
this was the designation of an advanced jet pack system manufactured by Mitrinomon. It had maneuverable exhaust nozzles that helped the user change direction in mid-flight, and it has built-in gyrostabilizers to counteract gravity during landings. It was believed that Boba Fett used a modified version of the Z-6 during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Because the Z-6 relied on an ambient oxygen supply to develop its propulsion, it could not be used in the vaccum of space or underwater. It also had the annoying tendency to fire when hit hard. (CCG7, GFT, AEG, WOTC)
Z-9  
Sirplex shield projector used on the A-Wing starfighter. (SCRE)
Z-95 AF3  
this was one of the early modifications SubPro made to the basic Z-95 Headhunter, giving the ship enhanced weapons and shielding to withstand more firepower. The AF3 - with the AF standing for Assault Fighter - was developed some three years prior to the Battle of Naboo. (SFT, SWDB)
Z-95 Headhunter  
this snub fighter was the last ship which was built by Incom in cooperation with Subpro Industries. The two corporations severed their relationship just before the onset of the Clone Wars, a few years before Incom began production on the X-Wing. One of the key designers of the ship was Seti Ashgad. They are 11.8 meters in length, and were equipped with twin engines, forked tails, and bomb pylons. They were famous for how much punishment they could take in battle, as well as the adaptability of the basic fighter design to other mission profiles. Each Headhunter was equipped with up to 3 blaster cannons on each wing, a concussion missile launcher, and a unique bubble canopy that allowed its pilot an almost 360-degree view of the sky around him. They employed a holographic, heads-up display that made the bubble canopy even more effective. However, the Z-95 lacked a hyperdrive. With the advent of the X-wing, the Z-95 became relegated to smugglers' armies and backwater usage, but still maintained a great following due to their toughness. During the era of the New Order, Jessa and Doc had six of them in their defense system, while Talon Kaarde even had a few of them in his fleet during the early years of the New Republic. They have been clocked at 1,150 kilometers per hour in an atmosphere, and can generate sublight speeds of 85 MGLT. They are equipped with the following shipboard components:

ZA-991-131  
this New Republic Intelligence datafile contained information on the re-instatement of Lando Calrissian to an acting officer of the New Republic military, during the hunt for the Teljkon vagabond. Much of the datafile is conjecture, as it was never determined which office actually re-instated Calrissian. (CTD)
Zaadja  
this seemingly unimportant planet, located in the Outer Rim, was the site of a ferocious battle some eighteen months after the Battle of Geonosis. The Separatists had established a droid manufacturing facility on Zaadja, but it was discovered by the Old Republic. Despite the planet's cold ecosystem, the Geonosians who traveled to work at the manufacturing facility found sufficient ores and materials to erect huge spires that resembled their homeworld. (RFY)
Zaalbar  
this Wookiee left his homeworld of Kashyyyk many years before the onset of the Great Sith War, and settled on the planet Taris. His reasons for leaving Kashyyyk were a closely-guarded secret, since the memories of his old life were quite painful to recall. The truth was that it had been Zaalbar's own brother, Chuundar, who had sold his people into enslavement by allowing Czerka Corporation to infiltrate Kashyyyk and install huge manufacturing facilities. After learning of Chuundar's part in Czerka's actions, and after hearing Chuundar denounce their own father Freyyr as a senile old fool, Zaalbar became enraged at attacked his brother. While the fight might have ended honorably, Zaalbar's anger led him to bear his climbing claws in combat, an action which was forbidden by Wookie law. Zaalbar was branded a "madclaw" and forced into exile. He ended up on Taris, after travelling through several star systems looking for work. While many beings simply regarded him as an unintelligent brute who was good for nothing more than a gang enforcer, Zaalbar worked hard to eke out a legitimate living on the planet. Quite by accident, he met up with Mission Vao in the Lower City, and the pair forged a quick and lasting relationship. Mission Vao's knack for locating food and shelter, Zaalbar's intimidating form usually kept them well-protected. When Zaalbar - who Mission Vao always called "Big Z" - was captured by a group of Gamorrean thugs, Mission found herself turning to a group of Old Republic heroes to rescue him. Among her newfound friends were Bastila Shan and Carth Onasi, and the group quickly became good friends after Zaalbar's escape. Mission and Zaalbar played key roles in the search for Darth Malak, helping to repay the debt for Zaalbar's release. Zaalbar eventually returned to Kashyyyk, and helped his fellow Wookiees throw off the yoke of slavery by defeating Chuundar and breaking Czerka's hold on the planet. (KOTOR, SWDB)
Zaami  
this was a common name used by the Qwohog race. (UANT)
Zaarin, Demetrius  
Zaarin was an Imperial Admiral in service during the Galactic Civil War. He was placed in charge of the research and development of new TIE Fighter models, including the the TIE Advanced and TIE Defender, by Emperor Palpatine and Darth Vader. In order to ensure that the Imperial fighters could operate without support, Zaaroin negotiated with the Habeen to obtain TIE hyperdrive technology. While he openly supported the Emperor's plans to capture Admiral Harkov following the defection of his fleet, Zaarin was plotting to move his fleet to Coruscant to kill Palpatine. He chose to make his move shortly after the death of Prince Xizor, when Lord Vader had been dispatched to clean up the remnants of Black Sun. Using the cover of Imperial fighters, he outraced Imperial pursuit in the Glory and reached Coruscant ahead of Vader, but was unable to capture Palpatine's shuttle. Vice Admiral Thrawn arrived and chased Zaarin into hyperspace. Zaarin later re-appeared, and tried to steal the prototype hibridium-based cloaking device design from Thrawn. Zaarin nearly succeeded, capturing the CR90 corvette Vorknkx, which had been equipped with a cloaking device from the research lab in the Iast System. However, Zaarin attempted to flee into hyperspace with the ship cloaked. The cloaking device had not yet been perfected for use in hyperspace, and the device exploded. The corvette and her crew, including Zaarin, were destroyed upon entering hyperspace. (TIE, RESB, SWI66)
Zabian System  
Lando Calrissian was headed to this star system, after losing Cloud City to Zorba the Hutt. (ZHR)
Zabin  
this female Kubaz was the Queen of the Zabin Hive, controlling the area around the Silver Forest of Dreams during the height of the New Order. Queen Zabin was easily distinguished from other Kubaz by the blue tattoos on her face and snout, as well as the diamond rings that adorned her trunk. When Alliance agents arrived on Kubindi with Han Solo, on a mission to rescue Grubba the Hutt, Queen Zabin demanded they they cook her a human meal in order to win her trust. If the meal pleased her and her collection of chefs, then they could have Grubba. Although the meal met with the Queen's tastes, Grubba was taken into custody by Imperial forces on Kubindi. Although Solo and his companions were set free, they were forced to pursue the bounty hunters and the Imperials in order to locate Grubba. (MIS6)

Zabrak  
this near-human species had several sub-species, each of which was distinguishable by the vestigial horns which ringed their heads. They were known for their ability to withstand great amounts of pain. The Zabrak races were native to the planet Iridonia, but discovered the ability to travel through space early in the history of the Old Republic. They quickly set out to colonize more hospitable worlds after a group of Duros explorers provided them with the knowledge of spaceflight. The strong will and self-confidence of the Zabrak led them to establish a number of colonies on remote worlds, each as loyal to its colony as to their homeworld. One of the largest settlements of Zabrak away from Iridonia was located on the planet Talus. Among the unique aspects of the Zabrak physiology was the presence of a secondary heart. Both muscles worked together to supply blood to an individual's limbs and organs, and had to work in synchronization in order to ensure proper bloodflow. Any arrhythmia in one heart could cause both to start fibrillating, which swiftly led to death if not corrected, because the bloodflow would be essentially stopped as the two hearts worked against each other. (IG1, SWK, WOTC, UANT, MBS, SWI83)
Zabrak  
this was the native language of the Zabrak people, originating from the planet Iridonia. (WOTC)
Zabrak Battle Cannon  
this large blaster rifle was produced by the Zabrak race on Iridonia, during the era of the Great Sith War.

(KOTOR)
Zabrak Diaspora Music  
this was a form of musical style that was developed by the Zabrak race, created in response to the race's colonization of worlds beyond Iridonia. Much of the music was celebratory in nature, proclaiming the ingenuity and bravery of the Zabrak explorers. (MBS)

Zagsm'ith was undaunted, though, and found that the planet was riddled with cave and caverns, and stumbled upon the remains of a Star Dragon. His discovery caused another Dragon to rouse from his lair and travel to Xuaquarres in order to determine what was happening. The Dragon killed the Imperials and allowed Zagsm'ith and the scouts to leave.

Zak "Squidfella" Quiglee  
this Gungan was one of the best bongo racers of his generation. He was also one of the most vocal opponents of recklessness of racers like Neb Neb Goodrow and Spleed Nukkels. He tried to lobby for their banishment from bongo racing, but any charges he brought forward were eventually dismissed. During the ensuing races, Squidfella became increasingly agitated with Spleed's tactics. During run of the Otoh Gunga Challenge, he tried to destroy her bongo after seeing that the remote-seein devices had been disabled by kreetch eels. Before he could finish the job, however, Nen Neb rammed his bongo into that of Squidfella, breaching Squidfella's bubble canopy. After the race, Squidfella had disappeared, although his bongo was recovered from the floor of Lake Paonga. He then managed to sneak back into Otoh Gunga and steal a military bongo, which he hoped to use to attack his rivals, whom he had learned were working with Lob Dizz to rebuilt Boss Nass' military heyblibber. He tried to kill them, but they managed to get the heyblibber working and rammed Squidfella's own vessel. He was knocked unconscious, and was later arrested and held for trial. He was found guilty on counts of stealing military vessels and attempted murder, and was banned from racing and sent to a correctional facility for many years. (GMR4)

Zal Afreg Kt'Aya  
this male Coynite was the junior Zal'Tra of the Kt'Aya clan at the height of the Galactic Civil War. He was the favored son of the oldest Var'Sairk on Coyn, and his father favored remaining neutral in the Galactic Civil War. Zal Afreg was a strict adherent to the En'Tra'Sol, which he also manipulated to his own advantage. However, Zal Afreg had yet to prove his own personal honor, and many believed he didn't have any. His chief rival at the time was Zal Tuag Th'Trar. (PG3)
Zal Tuag Th'Trar  
this junior Zal'Tra was the son of a Coynite noble who was sympathetic to the Alliance. Because of this, Zal Tuag got the chance to acquaint himself with many outstanding off-worlders. He used these meetings to report back to his father on their honor and status, as well as the status of the Galactic Civil War. Zal Tuag was fairly self-righteous about his heritage, and earned himself a rivalry with Zal Afreg Kt'Aya in passing. (PG3)
Zal, Devron  
this man was a junior executive with Radell Mining during the height of the Galactic Civil War.

Zalaster, Dorok  
this heavily-tattooed pirate worked in the Elrood Sector during the height of the Galactic Civil War. His bald pate was covered with swirling designs, and his moustache was braided with beads and hung down on either side of his chin.

He established a base on operations on the planet Lanthrym, and eventually bribed his way into a position of power. (PG3)
Zalem  
this Dathomiran Witch was the matriarch of her clan, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. She was the former wife of a Jedi Knight, and she used his own powers to augment her own Dark Side connection. When she was strong enough, she killed her husband and set out to raise her daugther, Ros Lai, as a Witch. However, Ros Lai seemed to be deformed, and Zalem ignored her while allowing her sister Witches to torture the young woman. Over time, Zalem's power grew on its own, and when the Witches discovered the Star Chamber on Dathomir, she knew that the time had come to assert her power. Zalem dedicated huge amounts of resources to unlocking the secrets of the Star Chamber in order to gain access to the Infinite Gates. However, her eagerness caused a failsafe in the Gate to be overlooked, and the resulting effect caused the destruction of the planet Ova. This attracted the attention of Mace Windu and Saesee Tiin of the Jedi Council, who sent Quinlan Vos to put a stop to Zalem's machinations.

They avoided the open desert, fearful of "dune ghosts" and other scary creatures. (GB)
Zaloriis  
this wind-swept planet was covered in desolate, sandy wastes, which made it inhospitable at best. This was the primary reason that the Empire chose Zaloriis as one of the primary manufacturing locations for All-Terrain Armored Transports (AT-ATs) during the height of the New Order. The native Zaloriians tended to stay well away from the Imperial facilities, living in small outposts on the outskirts of most cities. (GB)

Zaltin  
one of the two major pro-human producers of bacta on the planet Thyferra, the Zaltin faction was brought into the Bacta Cartel as the "competition" to Xucphra. Zaltin benefitted greatly from Emperor Palpatine's reign. Along with the Xucphra faction, Palpatine decreed that all bacta would be produced by the two groups, and it would be produced for military use only. This eliminated smaller competitors while creating higher profits. It didn't remove the Ashern faction, but viewed them as terrorists. They have a corporate culture that is very different from that of their competitor, Xucphra, although both employ nearly 300 Vratix worker for each human manager. When Zaltin realized that the Empire was doomed, they worked on two fronts to take control from Xucphra. First, they promoted Bror Jace for pilot's status with Rogue Squadron, in an effort to gain ties to the New Republic. Second, they began supplying the Ashern with money and weapons, hoping to gain support from the native Vratix who actually produced the bacta. With the New Republic's support, the Zaltin faction was able to defeat the Xucphra and was given control of the bacta production on Thyferra. (XWN, KT, BW)
Zal'Tra  
this was the title given to the heir of a Coynite Ag'Tra. (PG3)
Zalxuc City  
the site of Thyferra's primary starport, Zalxuc City was established at the height of the New Order to house the human population of the planet. They were responsible almost solely for the production of bacta, but numbered just 10,000. When Ysanne Isard took control of Xucphra and bacta production, many Zaltin families fled the planet. The city was then renamed Xucphra City. (BW)
Zam Wesell  
this Clawdite woman was a noted bounty hunter, during the last decade of the Old Republic. She was also a rival of Jango Fett, as the two were generally considered the best bounty hunters of their generation. Being a Clawdite, Zam had the ability to alter her shape, a trait which allowed her to infiltrate the inner circle of her targets with great ease. Her decision to become a bounty hunter was labeled as heretical by her fellow Clawdites, although Sam herself considered is "progressive." As part of her training, Zam learned the teachings and techniques of the Mabari, achieving the third level of prowess before setting out on her own. She then trained to become a bounty hunter on the city-world of Denon, while earning a living as a corporate security guard. Some years before the Clone Wars, Zam and Jango were both employed by Fernooda the Dug, working for General Ashaar Khorda, to recover the Infant of Shaa. They were unaware that they were actually working for General Khorda, and Zam later convinced Jango to reclaim the Infant of Shaa, in an effort to avoid Khorda's utilization of the artifact to destroy Coruscant. The pair was reunited during Jango's search for Komari Vosa and the Bando Gora cult, when Jango enlisted her help to free Bendix Fust from the Oovo IV prison facility. Zam helped Jango reach Kohlma and defeat Vosa, but was injured in the attempt. Jango rescued her, allowing Zam to receive medical treatment and resume her career. Despite their differences, Jango and Zam became grudging friends, and Zam even befriended Jango's young son, Boba. She taught the boy about the importance of books and the ability to read, showing that the acquisition of information is key to planning and good results. Just before the Battle of Geonosis, Zam was contacted by Jango, who had been hired by the Trade Federation to assassinate Senator Padme' Amidala of Naboo. The pair had planned to kill Senator Amidala when she landed on Coruscant, but the attempt killed her handmaide, Corde', instead. A second attempt, this time at Amidala's apartments, drew in the Jedi Knights, for Obi-Wan Kenobi and his apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, had been assigned to guard the Senator. Zam herself was nearly captured by the Jedi at the Outlander Club, but Jango refused to have his plans exposed. He killed Zam himself, in order to prevent any possible betrayal on her part. Zam Wesell was portrayed by Leeanna Walsman in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones. (OWS, SWI57, JF, ZW, AOTC, BF1, VD2, SWDB, BH)
Zan Arbor, Jenna  
a native of the planet Ventrux, this noted transgenic scientist earned fame early in her career by creating a vaccine to a space virus which threatened an entire planet. She then devoted her career to helping low-technology planets like Melasaton overcome their difficulties. Jenna was also a good friend of the Belascan Senator, Uta S'orn. About twelve years before the Battle of Naboo, she reserved Didi Oddo's cafι for a dinner party on an anonymous tip from Fligh. However, she didn't like the atmosphere and claimed the food was too cold, and swept out of the cafι with her entourage. It was during this party that the Sorrusian bounty hunter, Ona Nobis, who had been tracking Didi, sneaked into the cafι and laid a trap for the Oddos. Meanwhile, Jenna took the opportunity to capture Qui-Gon Jinn and transport him to Simpla-12, where she had been conducting experiments into the nature of the Force. Jenna revealed that many of her magnanimous actions in saving dying worlds were engineered by her own hand, as a way to earn the credits necessary to fund her private experiments. On worlds such as Belasco and Mindemir, she had purposely poisoned the water supply with bacteria she herself had engineered, then played the part of savior when she suddenly "discovered" the antidote. The unsuspecting planetary governments paid large sums of credits to have the bacteria neutralized. Many of the actions on these planets were ratified by the Old Republic Senate, although it was later revealed that Senator S'orn had falsified the voting in order to ensure Arbor Industries was given the chance to "solve" the problems. Zan Arbor claimed that her experiments were simply helping evolution along, culling the weak and allowing the strong to survive. She had begun her experiements into the nature of the Force on Ren S'orn, but found that a Jedi Master would be a better subject. She kept Qui-Gon in a specialized chamber, connected to several implants which could detect his connection to the Force. She knew that the Force was attuned to the body's chemical makeup, and traced its basis to the blood, but couldn't determine the exact connection. Her plans began to fall apart after she captured Qui-Gon, when the Jedi began to try and capture her. She fled Simpla-12 for Belasco, hoping to take another favor from Uta S'orn and draw out the Jedi. Despite her subterfuge and guile, Zan Arbor was captured by Qui-Gon and later exiled on a penal colony for her actions. However, she managed to make her way offworld and arrived on Vanqor several years before the Battle of Geonosis, where she began working on the drug known as the Zone of Self-Containment. She was forced to flee Vanqor when her lab was discovered by Obi-Wan and his apprentice, Anakin Skywalker, so Zan Arbor set up a base on Romin. On Romin, Obi-Wan discovered that she had established a relationship with Granta Omega, who agreed to fund her latest project. However, she was forced to go into hiding when Roy Teda was overthrown. This nearly turned out to be a profitable experience when the disguises of Obi-Wan and Anakin were exposed by the real Slam and his gang. It was then that Mace Windu and a group of Jedi reinforcements arrived on Romin and quickly took them prisoner. However, Zan Arbor had actually been working with Joylin the entire time, and through his deceit she was able to flee Romin with the real Slams, but not before the Jedi attached a tracking device to their ship. She and her cohorts traveled to Falleen, and hid in the Blackwater Systems facility to work on delivery mechanisms for the Zone. The Jedi discovered the facility, forcing Jenna and Roy Teda to destroy it and flee to Coruscant. She then accompanied Granta Omega to Korriban, where they planned to meet their Sith benefactor and finally gain true power. The barren, desolate environment of Korriban was tough for her to handle, as she had become used to the trappings of wealth. When the pair was finally caught by the Jedi Knights, she found herself separated from Omega. After he was killed while trying to destroy Obi-Wan, Jenna fled once again, and was not seen again. Note that Jedi Quest: The Changing of the Guard names this character as Janna Zan Arbor. (DH, EVE, TDR, JQ7, JQ8, JQ9, JQ10)
Zan Yant  
this male Zabrak, a native of the planet Talus, was one of the many field surgeons who supported the Grand Army of the Republic during the height of the Clone Wars. Zan came from a wealthy family, and was trained at the best educational facilities they could afford. In addition to his medical education, Zan also studied music with a professor who once taught at the Coruscant School of Music. He was stationed at the Rimsoo Seven military hospital on the planet Drongar two years after the Battle of Geonosis, where he became fast friends with Jos Vondar. In order to relieve the stress of field surgery, Zan Yant spent his downtime playing his quetarra. His skills as a surgeon were surpassed only by his skill as a musician, and it never failed to amaze Jos that Zan had not taken up a career in music. He used the music to soothe his mind and nerves after surgery, and the music was one of the few things that kept him sane during the horror of the Clone Wars. When the Rimsoo Seven facility was attacked by Separatist forces, Zan Yant and the rest of the doctors grabbed their go-bags and got ready to evacuate the location and move to a new one. In the chaos of trying to reach his transport, however, Zan dropped the case containing his quetarra. He was forced to remain on the transport, knowing that it would be suicidal for himself and the other to try and recover it. Much to his relief, though, Den Dhur was rushing to the transport just behind him, and managed to recover the quetarra before leaping into the transport. Zan was eternally grateful to the Sullustan, and vowed never to forget him. Zan's happiness was cut short when, just after take-off, the transport was hit by a Separatist missile. The shrapnel that filled the ship penetrated his spinal cord just below the neck, severely damaging his brain and killing him also instantly. It was of little consolation to the members of Rimsoo Seven that Zan had died happy, knowing the quetarra was safe. (MBS)

Zantay Hills  
this collection of low mountains was located near Kibo Lake, on the planet Ord Cestus. They were found just below the Yal-Noy peak in the Dashta Mountains, and benefitted from the snowmelt each spring.

Zao  
this Veknoid Jedi Master was known for his love of food. He was one of the many Jedi who decided not to work on specific missions for the Jedi Council, but instead traveled the galaxy at the will and whim of the Force. Because of this, Master Zao ended up as the head chef for the Aqualish crimelord Gorto Zaga, shortly after the Battle of Naboo. In this way, Master Zao was on the planet Kiffex when Quinlan Vos and Master Tholme arrived on the planet to investigate the re-awakening of Volfe Karkko. It was Master Zao who convinced Quinlan Vos to let the Force be his guide, and simply move about the galaxy at the command of the Force. During the Clone Wars, Master Zao moved about the Outer Rim, and was believed to have been killed until Master Tholme found him on Saleucami. As the struggle against the Separatists ground on, Master Zao was one of many Jedi who openly questioned the need to continue the war. The Jedi Order, he explained to Tholme, was charged with serving the Force. Zao agreed that the Jedi Order was sworn to uphold the principles of the Old Republic, but feared that the Republic itself no longer held to the old ideals. He continued to use food analogies to describe his position, often questioning Tholme about the state of the galaxy by serving him food and asking about the taste. Depending on Tholme's response, Master Zao would then ask him if the food had changed, or the taster. In this way, Zao questioned whether or not the Jedi Order, the Republic, and the galaxy were changing in fundamental ways. (DRKN, OWS, ROP, RT, RSOS)

An outspoken supporter of the Old Republic, Senator Zar maintained residences on Coruscant and Ghorman, as well as his homeworld. When the planet Duro fell to the Separatists, Fang Zar was among the first to support the actions of Corellia in retreating to defend its own borders, despite the public and political outcry at the loss of such a visible member of the Republic. Many believed that it was Zar's personal friendship with Senator Garm Bel Iblis that decided his loyalty, rather than political necessity. Senator Zar later became part of a small group that supported Bail Organa's pettion to ensure Chancellor Palpatine relinquished the unprecedented control he had been given during the Clone Wars. Unfortunately, Fang Zar was among the first Senators to be arrested for their part in the Petition, after Palpatine instituted the New Order and assumed the position of Emperor.

She escaped, and reappeared when Captain Parlan offered the bounty for Adar Tallon. She joined Jodo Kast and Puggles Trodd again, but failed to reach Tallon before the Alliance could. She managed to survive the firefight on Tatooine, but she was blamed by many Imperials as the reason the mission to capture Tallon failed.Several factions even sent bounty hunters after her. Although she continued to work for Imperial commissions, she distrusted them at every turn. This distrust turned into hatred when her informant turned on her. The informant sold information to the Alliance, and she was captured by the agent she was pursuing. She was placed aboard the Celestial for transport to a penal colony, but was lost in Otherspace with the rest of her fellow convicts. Driven mad by the Charon red mist aboard the Desolate, Zardra survived a firefight with Alliance agents trying to rescue the crew of the Celestial.

In order to ensure her success, Zascha demanded that Jennalyn be exchanged for two million credits aboard the Masquerade, then told the Hutts that the freelance agents who were dispatched to rescue Jennalyn Bontraar were actually the kidnappers, hoping to disrupt the exchange long enough to exact her revenge.

Zavod, Nikk  
this dashing man convinced the woman who was later known as Mala Mala to join him in a search for the Wookiee, Chewbacca.

this Hutt, a member of the Besadii clan, controlled the spice and slave production on Ylesia. It was Zavval who chose the t'landa Til to orchestrate the setting of a religious colony, choosing his close associate Teroenza to become the High Preist. He was constantly at odds with Jabba and Jiliac, who supplied him with raw spice for processing. He discovered, after Han Solo was attacked by pirates, that Jabba and Jiliac were waylaying transport ships laden with processed spice. Posing as pirates, Jiliac's henchmen would steal the processed spice, obtaining sellable product at virtually no cost. This made Zavval angry, and he issued an ultimatum to Jiliac via a message conveyed by Han to Nal Hutta. This only enraged Jiliac, but Han was allowed to return to Ylesia. Later, during Han's escape, Zavval happened to be in Teroenza's palace when Bria and Han were stealing the t'landa Til's treasures. A firefight ensued, during which Han and Bria escaped.

Zdrinbagh  
this shellfish was native to several Outer Rim worlds. Its flesh was considered a delicacy by many chefs, as it was light and tender when cooked. However, zdrinbagh had to be shipped alive in order to maintain their freshness. This was often a dangerous proposition, since the zdrinbagh were also deadly predators. Most restaurants that served zdrinbagh maintained a staff of droid chefs, then used stun grenades to immobilize the zdrinbagh. The droids would then kill the creatures and begin preparing them for cooking. An average specimen stood just under a half-meter in height, and moved about on four spindly legs.

Before his service in Elrood Sector, he was generally regarded as the hero of the Battle of Fleyars IV. During the battle, he took command of the Seswennan Nightcloak after his Captain had been fatally wounded. To call Captain Zed a cold-hearted disciplinarian was an understatement, and his adherence and devotion to the New Order bordered on fanaticism. After being stationed in Elrood Sector, Captain Zed found himself paired with Captain Pryl, whom he considered a spoiled, weak, incompetent officer. (OE, PG3)

this was one of the primary races that evolved on the planet Ord Cestus. Unlike the insectoid X'Ting race and the Spider People, the Zeetsa resembled swollen balls of a bluish substance. No arms or legs were immediately visible on their body, nor was their and evidence of a head. The skin of a Zeetsa wsa translucent, allowing a network of blue veins and internal organs to be seen beneath its surface. The flesh of the Zeetsa was unusual in that it could adjust its shape to mimic its surroundings, allowing a Zeetsa individual to attain the appearance of another being for a short period of time. This allowed Zeetsa to integrate with the X'Ting. In the early history of the planet, the X'Ting depended on the Zeetsa to produce the fluid known as Lifemilk. The Lifemilk sustained the X'Ting, which produced food for the Zeetsa. Over time, many Zeetsa became willful and stubborn, and chose to separate themselved from their relationship with the X'Ting. Many individuals chose to remain, however, ensuring that the two races were forever lined to one another. (HIV)
Zeev  
this was the name of the duuvhal which was kept as a pet by Valara Saar. She brought Zeev with her when she left Yashuvhu with the crew of the Pathfinder III, but Zeev was killed on the planet Aargau. It was often said that Zeev was the only specimen of duuvhal ever seen by the galaxy at large, due to the remote location of Yashuvhu. (WOTC)
Zeffliffl  
the fourth planet orbiting Markbee's Star, it is the homeworld a race of leaf-like creatures. (CS)
Zeffliffl  
the name given to the leaf-like aliens antive to Zeffliffl. These communal creatures live in masses floating in the planet's shallow southern oceans. They collect water in sacs for use when they are away from their native seas. They expel the way in a short geyser, thoroughly wetting themselves to avoid dessication. (CS)
Zehava  
this city was the capital of the planet Melida/Daan. It was founded a millennium before the rise to power of Emperor Palpatine, but its borders were continually being redefinde during the civil war between the Melida and the Daan. There are records of more than twenty-one separate battles between the Melida and the Daan, dating back more than sixty years before the Battle of Naboo. The Tenth Battle of Zehava was considered the bloodiest war fought for control of the city. Shortly afterward, the city was divived into northern and southern regions, with the Daan controlling the northern-half the city and the Melida, the southern half. During the Eighteenth Battle, the Daan used the tunnels and drains under the city to secret gain access to Melida-held areas. Shortly before the Twenty-fifth Battle, Daan and Melida divided the city into sectors, and even lived side-by-side for a short time. (DOD)
ZeHeth  
this planet is the homeworld of the ZeHethbra species. (TTSB)
ZeHethbra  
a race characterized by their black-and-white-striped mane, the ZeHethbra are tall humanoids which have at least 80 distinct cultural, racial, and ethnic groups. This variety of cultures came about because of the varied ecosystems found on the their homeworld of ZeHeth. Northern groups tend to be brown or red in color, while southern groups tends toward blue-white fur. All ZeHethbra have the black-and-white mane, which begins at the bridge of their nose and travels over their head and down to the small of their back. Females have wider stripes than males, and males tend to have branches of fur running out from the main stripe. As a people, the ZeHethbra were known for their short tempers and moody temperments, but were also fiercely loyal to their families and clans. (TLC, UANT)
ZeHethbra  
this was the native language of the ZeHethbra race, which was characterized by its snarls, shrieks, chitters, and growls. (UANT)
Zehr Sea  
this was an ocean found on the planet Delassin VI. (SWJ6)
Zeison Sha  
this was an ancient philosophy of the Force, distinguished from that of the Jedi Knights and the Sith in its training methods and beliefs. The origins of the Zeison Sha can be traced back to the initial stages of the Light and Darkness War, some 2,000 years before the Galactic Civil War. A group of families who were fleeing the conflict between the Jedi and the Sith established a colony on Yanibar. Many of the members of these families had ties to the Jedi Order - more than a few were also quite sensitive to the Force - and so they fled into the Outer Rim to avoid becoming the targets of Sith attacks. A group of Jedi accompanied the families to Yanibar, but was later killed in battle, leaving the families stranded. News of their deaths never reached the families, because their flight had been kept secret. So, the families took this to mean that the Jedi Order had abandoned them, and they set out to commune with the Force in other ways. Surviving the harsh environment of Yanibar gave the Zeison Sha a strong will to survive, and they tapped into the Force to assist in ensuring the survival of the colony. Over the centuries, the Zeison Sha philosophy coalesced around the ideals of self-reliance and independence. Among the skills of the Zeison Sha were weapons skills designed for defense and for acquiring food. One of the most distinctive weapons of the Zeison Sha was the discblade, a weapon that could be thrown at a creature and would return to its thrower. The return was partly due to the discblade's shape, and partly to the Zeison Sha's own telekinetic skills. There were several times in the history of the Zeison Sha that the struggle for independence and self-sufficiency led an individual to become selfish, and many Zeison Sha were lost to the Dark Side of the Force. After the Battle of Ruusan, a passing trader discovered the colony on Yanibar, and the Zeison Sha decided to revisit their former ties to the Jedi Order. When the Jedi began taking their children - often without permission - for training as Padawans, the Zeison Sha again chose to reject the ways of the Jedi and returned to Yanibar. This self-imposed isolation allowed the Zeison Sha to survive the Jedi Purge. (SWI68, HG)
Zeka  
this spotted grass was native to the plains of Ansion. (APS)
Zeka Quartz  
this gemstone was mined on the planet Qiilura during the last decades of the Old Republic. (RCHC)
Zekk  
this given name was common human males across the galaxy. (GCG)
Zekk  
this young native of Ennth fled the planet following a natural disaster that devastated his colony. He escaped in a supply ship fleeing the planet, on which the captain tried to get him into an orphanage. Zekk fled this ship, and a few others, before he ended up on Peckhum's ship. Peckhum had taken Zekk in and cared for him, seeing Zekk's natural independence as a mirror of his own youth. The two finally stopped on Coruscant. There, he found refuge in the cityworld's subterranean environs. Later, he was befriended by Jaina and Jacen Solo. He is a wiry youth with black hair and striking green eyes. It was Tamith Kai, scouring the underground levels of Coruscant, who discovered that Zekk had a large amount of Force sensitivity. He was brought to the Shadow Academy for training, and was taken under Brakiss's wing. Zekk's power grew swiftly, and so did the rivaly between he and Vilas, Tamith Kai's apprentice. The two were pitted against each other in a battle to the death for the position of Darkest Knight. Both Tamith Kai and Brakiss believed that the rivalry between the two would divide the Academy. In the battle, Zekk managed to dispatch Vilas. This victory made Zekk the Darkest Knight of the Shadow Academy, a positioon bestowed upon him by Brakiss,much to Tamith Kai's dismay. As the Darkest Knight, Zekk was given command of the assault team sent to Kashyyyk to steal starship components for the Second Imperium's own ships. They infiltrated the planet holo-disguised as Wookiees, and successfully obtained a large amount of starship shielding and navigational equipment. When he suddenly found that his Imperial masters were defeated, Zekk tried to return to the Light Side of the Force, but found himself unable to concentrate and accomplish his goals. He fled Yavin 4 and returned to Ennth, only to discover the planet in the throes of is worse devastation in recent record. He helped evacuate as many people as he could, but he still felt out of place. After the evacuation, he let himself drift through the Force, and decided to become a bounty hunter. He accepted the challenge of capturing Bornan Thul, hoping to use the little control he had of the Force to track him down before anyone could harm him. Like many others, he failed to find the Alderaanian, but was welcomed back into the fold of friends on Yavin 4. He later helped Raynar Thul search out Bornan, and rejoined the Jedi Academy. He continually worked to avoid the Dark Side, and actually used the Force to win the 93rd annual Blockade Runners Derby. After attaining the rank of Jedi Knight, Zekk was one of many individuals who were forced into battle against the Yuuzhan Vong. During the final stages of the battle against the Yuuzhan Vong, after the living planet Zonama Sekot agreed to help bring about an end to the conflict, Zekk was one of several Jedi Knights were bonded to seed-partners and provided with Sekotan starships. Five years later, when UnuThul sent out his call for help, Zekk was among seven young Jedi who dropped whatever mission they were currently on and traveled to the Unknown Regions to answer the call. However, he questioned the Jedi's continued involvement with the Colony, since he was unable to fully comprehend if the conflict between the Kind and the Chiss was actually upsetting the balance of the Force. Because of his joining with the Unu hive, Zekk found himself suddenly sharing emotions with Jaina Solo, and the pair realized that there was a deep level of attraction between them. Although nothing came of their pairing following the Dance of Union, they discovered that their relationship had been moved to a much deeper level than ever before.

Zekka Thyne  
this near-human was known as Patches to the agents of the Corellian Security Force, for his pinkish colored skin was covered with blue splotches of color. He had red eyes with black, diamond-shaped pupils, pointed ears, and pointed, black teeth. Zekka Thyne was imprisoned at Kessel by Corran Horn and his father, Hal. There were rumors that Zekka Thyne was the heir-apparent to Prince Xizor's Black Sun empire, and that he had murdered a number of high-ranking Black Sun rivals to help pave that path. His imprisonment on Kessel, followed by Xizor's death just before the Battle of Endor, left Thyne without many possibilities. However, when Wedge Antilles and the New Republic began searching for a way to infiltrate Coruscant, they chose to release Thyne from Kessel and allow him to reactivate his old Black Sun contacts on the planet. Thyne was supposed to be under the watchful eye of Fliry Vorru, but he still managed to make contact with the Empire on Coruscant. He continually relayed information on the Rogues' activities until he was discovered by Corran Horn and Inyri Forge, his former lover and spice cutter. In Corran's attempt to escape, Inyri shot Thyne dead. (WG, TFE)

Zekulae  
this planet was the homeworld of the Zeku race. (DOH)
Zel  
this man was one of the leaders of the Freedom movement, serivng Malinza Thanas during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. When Malinza escaped from jail, with the help of Jaina Solo, it was Zel's hot temper that led him to accuse Jaina of betraying them. Only when a homing bacon was found sewn into the waistband of Malinza's pants did Zel relent. Unfortunately, Zel was shot and killed by the Bakuran police when the location of the Stack was revealed. The police raided the Stack, and Zel was shot while fleeing. (FH2)

Zell  
this rotund alien, the Ambassador of the planet Majoor during the last years of the Old Republic, was one of C-3PO's owners before the droid was owned by Jord Dusat and Thall Joben. Ambassador Zell acquired the droids after they left the service of Lonn Idd and his children, Vik and Nikki, to serve as tutors and companions for his son Llez. However, he was unaware that his constant absence had turned Llez' attention to more devious pursuits. When Zell set out on a diplomatic mission to Armath, he found himself being pursued by the noted space pirate, Reddjak. Unknown to Zell, Llez had run away from home to set Reddjak free and join his pirate band. As Reddjak's forces closed in, Zell ordered his own security officers to turn the table on the pirate and board the attacking ship. Llez had realized that Reddjak wasn't a worthy hero, and helped his father bring the pirate to justice. It was then that Zell revealed he had once been a Space Ranger, earning more of Llez' admiration. In the wake of the incident, Zell resolved to spend more time with his son, and sent the droids back to the Intergalactic Droid Agency for reassignment. (MDCAR, NEGC)
Zellone

Zelmaadine  
this searing ball of rock, known for its active volcanoes, was the innermost planet of the Velm System. (WOTC)
Zeloa  
this planet was the innermost world of the Zel System. Zeloa was unusual in that it was a gas giant located so close to its primary star. It was orbited by fourteen moons. (PH)
Zeloc  
this gas giant was the fifth planet in the Velm System. It was orbited by eleven moons and a system of debris rings. (WOTC)
Zelor  
this man served as the Regent of the planet Velmor for twenty years, following the subjugation of the planet by the Empire. During this time, Zelor was one of Prince Anod's closest advisors, during his early political training on Velmor. He challenged Luke Skywalker, who was in the guise of Korl Marcus, to a duel, when Luke arrived on Velmor with Prince Denid. Rather than rely on Captain Traal's plans to have Marcus kill Denid, Zelor convinced Prince Anod to do it. Zelor then planned to execute Anod himself. However, in the attempt, Anod was shot and killed by Traal. Zelor himself set out to kill Luke, but was no match for the Jedi's strength and cunning. Zelor was killed in the struggle, shortly after Traal murdered Jedidiah. It was later revealed that Zelor had become greedy, and had set into motion his own plans to eliminate Anod and Denid, hoping to place his own family on the throne. (LTA2, WOTC, MC49)
Zelos  
this world was the home planet of the Aga. (COJ)
Zelos  
this white star is the central point of the Zelos System. This system is anomalous because of the proximity of a large, stationary gravity well near the outermost world of Rymm. The planets and moons in the system are continually pulled toward Zelos and the gravity well, although they have never left their orbits around Zelos. Travel within the system is extremely hazardous if the proper routes are not followed. (PG2)
Zelos II  
this planet, the second world located in the Zelos System, is the homeworld of the Zelosians. It is a mountainous world with four moons. The Empire subjugated the planet in an effort to control the export of raw ores. In a marvel of subversion, it kept the Zelosians ignorant of the exact destination of the ores. The Zelosians were completely unaware that they were working to support the Imperial war machine. When the Battle of Endor signalled the end of the Empire, the Zelosians assumed the Empire had abandoned its base on Zelos II. However, the Imperials remained behind, hidden in the Valley of Umbra. The New Republic tried to infiltrate the base and eradicate the Imperial presence on Zelos II, which had been tipped off by a group of mercenaries. Unfortunately, the Republic's Red Team Five was nearly wiped out in the raid. The average day on Zelos II lasts 20 standard hours, and its year lasts 300 local days. It was rumored that the dead could come back to life if they made it to the Bare Forest, as several animated corpses were seen at different times of the year in several cities. It was later discovered that a species of wormlike creatures were scavenging on the dead bodies. Their feeding released chemicals that affected the nervous system of the bodies they consumed. In higher-order creatures like humans, which had been dead just a short while, this often fired the central nervous system into action. The result was that, for a short time, the muscles of the dead body were contracted automatically, sometimes resulting in enough motion to imitate walking. (PG2, TFNR)
Zelosian  
an near-human race native to the planet Zelos II. The Zelosians guard a wonderful secret about their heritage: they are descended from an intelligent race of plants, and have a liquid form of green chlorophyll for blood. They cannot consume sguar, for it acts like alcohol in their bloodstream. The eyes of every Zelosian are emerald green, and are incapable of seeing in the dark. This night-blindness has created a species-wide fear of the dark, and remain hidden indoors after the sun goes down. The average Zelosian was quite superstitious, with a variety of beliefs which would seem ridiculous to the modern being. (PG2, AE)
Zelosian's Chine  
located deep in the heart of the Great Zelosi Sea, the Chine is a sharp-spired ridge of coralline mountains that is surrounded by deadly reefs. Legends persist of a vast treasure hidden in caves at the base of the Chine, but have never fully been proved true. The legend claims that a merchant prince was traveling in his starship during one of the Sepulchral Night eclipses. The ship was dragged down by Zelos' gravity well, and forced to crash in the ocean. It landed near the Chine, with most of its base revealed during the low tide. The prince was unaware of the unusual tides on Zelos II, and began directing his men to bury the treasure in the caves at the mountain's base. The tide began to roll in, swiftly engulfing the prince, his men, and his treasure. Melks supposedly consumed the prince and his crew, and the treasure was never seen again. The problem with finding the treasure is that the only way to get to the caves is to travel at the time of the lowest tides on Zelos II. These only occur during the Day of the Sepulchral Night, and every native Zelosian hides indoors on this day. Thus, explorers must have a good idea of where to go before the Day occurs. When fully exposed by low tides, the Chine resembles the skeletal remains of a huge, spiny-backed beast. (TFNR)
Z-Elpi  
an Alliance transport ship captured during the Galactic Civil War. (TIE)
Zeltron  
this humanoid race was native to the planet Zeltros. The average Zeltron had the ability to project powerful pheromones at another individual, and their empathic abilities allowed them to sense the feelings of other beings. As a people, the Zeltrons cared little for military force or planetary defense, but they were continually in top physical condition. Individual Zeltrons were easily distinguished by their deep red skin and their black hair, and they were characterized by their love of gambling and their ability to love other beings unconditionally. When a Zeltron was deprived of the ability to love or gamble, they usually resorted to violence, and were known to be excellent warriors when they had no other way to channel their enthusiasm. (EGA, MC70, MC96)
Zeltron Artistic Guild

Dengar had drunk too much of this the night before Jabba died, and so he missed the trip to the Pit of Carkoon. (DESB)
Zeltros  
this planet, the third world in the Zel System, was the homeworld of the Zeltrons. It was located in the Stenness Node, not far from Ambria and Amara. Sometime after the Battle of Endor, both the Hiromi and the Nagai tried to subjugate Zeltros for their own empires, but their attacks coincided with each other. This allowed the meager forces of the Alliance of Free Planets to defat both sides, maintaining Zetros' freedom. The planet was located on the edge of the Outer Rim, near the Unknown Regions. It was orbited by a pair of moons. It was said that "One Zeltron was the life of the party. On Zeltros, life is the party." Note that the Planet Hoppers entries for Zeltros claim that the planet was located in the Inner Rim. (MC73, MC104, UANT, PH, GMR1)

Zend, Salla  
an old flame of Han Solo's during the early years of the New Order, Salla Zend worked long and hard as a tech on a corporate transport to save enough credits to float a loan from a Hutt to buy her own ship. She started out as a normal merchant aboard the Rimrunner, but somehow ended up as a sumggler. She often referred to her ship as "he", bucking the centuries-old tradition of naming ships after females. It was during her career as a smuggler that she met Han Solo and Shug Ninx. They made a number of runs together, smuggling spice to the Stenness System and trying to outdo each other on the Kessel Run. Then, during a routine solo run, the hyperdrive onboard the Rimrunner failed. She would have crashed into a neutron star if Solo hadn't saved her. However, her ship was lost. Note that Rebel Dawn indicates that Salla lost the Rimrunner after she attempted to beat Han during a Kessel Run. She attempted to microjump across the Maw, and fried her ship's systems upon re-entry. The experience left Salla deeply shaken, and she took Roa's advice and decided to settle down. She told everyone that she and Han were going to get married, and starting making plans. Solo didn't want to get married, however, and he left her on Nar Shaddaa. After that, she began working on her new ship, the Starlight Intruder, with Shug's help. When Han showed up on Nar Shaddaa following the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn, Salla was pulled into the New Republic's web. She helped Solo escaped Boba Fett, and was again left waiting to see if Han would ever call back. As fate would have it, Solo did come back. However, she and Shug Ninx were forced to leave the spaceport after Han Solo destroyed one of their prized cruisers, and Zasm Katth and Baddon Fass ransack the garage. Because of the financial losses she suffered, Salla considered her debts to the New Republic repaid, and planned to return to Byss and recover the Starlight Intruder. Shortly after learning that the ship had been dismantled by Imperial technicians, Salla once again found herself helping the Republic. She was instrumental in getting her fellow smugglers to help cover the Republic's attack on Byss, and later helped defend the New Alderaan base from Imperial attack. (DE1, DESB, DE2, THG, RD, SWDB)
Zendra  
this was a common name among the Umbaran people. (UANT)
Zenex  
this Falleen crimelord was active during the last decades of the Old Republic. He set up shop on The Wheel several months before the Battle of Geonosis, and managed to attract the attention of Korto Vos. At the same time, he came into possession of a datadisk which contained a message from Nute Gunray, describing an imminent attack on the planet Kamino by the Separatists. The disk was stolen by Khaleen and turned over to Korto Vos. Zenex, however, was unaware that Vos had the disk, and when Khaleen contacted him to negotiate a deal for its return, Zenex agreed. Unaware that a copy was on its way to the Jedi Knights, Zenex met with Khaleen and told that he wouldn't kill her for the theft. Instead, he used his pheromones to attract her and persuade her to shoot herself. Vos managed to intervene before she could pull the trigger, and Aayla Secura was able to confront Zenex. She gave him the impression that she was falling under his chemical spell, then ignited her lightsaber into his chest. Zenex died instantly, and Vos was forced to meet with his Neimoidian contact in order to complete the transfer. A nudge with the Force allowed the disk to continue its journey without any problems. (RS)
Zenji Needles

Zero-1  
this was the designation of the Q9-series astromech droid used by Kyp Durron, during the struggle against the Yuuzhan Vong. Zero-1 had once been owned by a Mon Calamari philosopher, and was purchased at auction when Kyp went on his own, independent crusade against the Yuuzhan Vong. Zero-1 never truly had its memory systems erased, and continued to respond to Kyp's queries with rhetorical questions and probing dialogue. Kyp later explained that the droid's name was a joke on the philosophical belief that all life can be reduced to the binary code of zeroes and ones. (DJ)

Zerpo  
this was a common name among the Toydarian race. (WOTC, UANT)
Zersium  
this element was used in the formation of dura-armor and durasteel. During the years following the Great Sith War, zersium was used to create blaster rifles. During the era of the new Order, Strephan I'att and Daye Azur-Jamin discovered that zersium flecks, imbedded in the black body glove worn by stormtroopers, helped amplify the energy dissipation field they created for I'att Armaments. It also provided additional insulation and helped reduce thermal discomfort when the field absorbed a blaster bolt. (SWSB, TFE, CTD, KOTOR2)
Zesi Phinx  
this ancient Anzati female lived on the planet Coruscant during the last millennia of the Old Republic. Although no one could verify her story, Zesi Phinx claimed to have been on the planet for so long that her kills numbered in the hundreds of thousands. To most beings she encountered, Zesi Phinx was an amiable young woman who could tell vivid stories about events which occurred centuries or even millennia before. Most of her serach for prey occurred at the Outlander Club, where she scanned the clientele for her next victim. This gave rise to the rumor that an Anzati stalked the Outlander Club, although Zesi Phinx's true nature was never revealed. (CCW)

Zeta Zero Nine  
this frigid water world is located in the Wastes. Much of the landmass of the planet is in the form of treacherous islands, most of which are surrounded by unnavigable seas. The seas are dangerous because of three things: the intense tidal forces inflicted on the planet by its wide orbital path, icebergs, and extremely cold temperature of the water. An intense magnetic field limits the use of sensors near the planet, and no lifeforms have been discovered on it. The planet's day lasts 25 standard hours, and its year lasts 403 local days. Zeta Zero Nine was the site of Imperial Moff Jesco Comark's secret base, from which he developed the Death-Hunter cyborg assassin. (SWJ9)
Zeta-class Shuttle  
this form of long-range shuttle was developed by the Telgorn Corporation for use by the Old Republic, and were originally planned for deployment aboard Victory-class Star Destroyers. However, with the advent of the Empire and the introduction of the Imperial-class Star Destroyers, the Zeta-class shuttle was phased out in favor of the Lambda-class shuttle. The Zeta-class shuttle measured 35 meters in length, and was armed with a pair of front-mounted laser cannons. It was controlled by a pilot and co-pilot, and could transport up to ten troops and 25 metric tons of cargo. Because of their mission profile, Zeta-class shuttles were given Class One hyperdrives. (SWJ11)

He was part of the team that discovered the development of a nanovirus by Ovolot Qail Uthan, and led the planning effort for a mission to capture Uthan on Qiilura. He was pleasantly surprised to learn that Etain Tur-Mukan had survived the mission, and was also impressed with the fact that she had grown during the period into a strong leader. In the wake of the successful mission, Master Zey and Padawan Tur-Mukan remained on Qiilura to help with the clean-up and to pave the wave for the Gurlanin to return to their homeworld as free beings.

a Starfeld starship design, the ZH-25 Questor followed on the success of the Z-10 Seeker. The initial design parameters for the ZH-25 were to eliminate the flaws in the original Z-10 design while reusing as much of the original design as possible. The ZH-25 added a pair of cargo pods to the main fuselage of the Z-10, doubling the amount of cargo it could transport. Weapons systems were also improved with the use of Taim & Bak pulse laser cannons, and shielding was upgraded with the use of a Sirplex P-12 generator.

Zhar  
this gas giant was orbitted by two moons, Gall and Kile. It is located in the far Rim Systems. Secrets of Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire notes that Zhar is in the same system as Tatooine.

this Yuuzhan Vong warrior was placed in command of the small fleet which defended the planet Fondor, during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. When he heard the request for support from the forces in the Duro System, Zhat Lah too several ships and jumped to Duro. Once there, however, he realized that the New Republic attacks had been used as a trap, hoping to lure as many warships to Duro and trap them there. This would have provided two benefits: the destruction of Yuuzhan Vong ships at Duro, and the recapture of Fondor. Rather than throw his forces into a battle which would only end in their deaths, Zhat Lah ordered a retreat and fled Duro. He reported his return to Warmaster Nas Choka, who did not execute him for leaving the battle. Zhat Lah was commended for saving the remainder of his fleet, which would be used in later battles. (FP)
Zheepho  
this Rodian served as a Lieutenant in the Grand Army of the Republic, during the height of the Clone Wars. Zheepho was stationed on the planet Drongar, which did little to help his chronic case of smashbone fever.

Zhell  
this ancient race was native to the planet Coruscant, during the planet's earliest period of civilization. Thirteen tribes of Zhell were united under a single, and coexisted for many generations before they were conquered by the Taungs. In an epic battle, the tide was turned when an active volcano erupted, spewing lava and ash into the sky. The main Zhell city was destroyed, wiping the Zhell out and leaving the Taungs victorious. Many xenoarchaeologists believed that the surviving Zhell fled to the southern polar region, where they buried themselves alive in the ice. Millennia later, explorers located these burial grounds, which eventually became known as the Ice Crypts. (SES, CCW)
Zherron  
this man served as the Captain of the Guard, protecting the Khoonda Plains area of Dantooine during the years following the Jedi Civil War. Zherron was known as a man of action, but this got him into trouble with the local mercenaries. Instead of driving them away, Zherron's actions only served to make the mercenaries more active on the Khoonda Plains. It was The Exile who exposed Zherron's troublesome ways, after he learned that Zherron had placed surveillance equipment inside the many atmospheric sensors that were used to monitor the weather. Zherron was eventually removed from his position and replaced by Berun. However, Berun was even more inept than Zherron was devious, and Administrator Terena Adare eventually removed Berun and restored Zherron to his former position. (KOTOR2)

this Yuuzhan Vong individual was a creche'-mate of Nen Yim. When the Shaper traveled to Zonama Sekot with Tahiri Veila, they found that they both shared memories of Zhul and another creche'-mate, P'loh. They discovered that Nen Yim's own memories had been stolen from her, through the use of the protocol of Qah, by Mezhan Kwaad for the creation of the Riina Kwaad personality that was implanted inside Tahiri's mind. After the Yuuzhan Vong began their invasion of the galaxy, Zhul was assigned to the Baanu Ghezh as an apprentice Shaper. (FP)
Ziakas  
this was one of the few Derriphan which survived until the era of the New Order. Typical of its kind, Ziakas sustained itself by draining its prey of their life essense. Ziakas preferred to feed on females of human or near-human stock, and avoided Jedi and Force-sensitives because it was nearly killed by a Jedi many centuries ago. Ziakas took up residence inside The Glow Dome on Adarlon, feeding on females who were intoxicated by the incredible light show. At one time, Ziakas preyed upon Kandria A'Daasha, the owner of The Glow Dome. (WSV)

The slavers had been hjoping to capture members of the Asilyr tribe to enslave, to be put to work in mining operations to help warn against tremors and cave-ins. The sudden disappearance of several starport guards and several Bharhulai tribesmen brought tensions between the tribes to a fevered pitch, until a team of freelance mercenaries managed to defeat the slavers and drive them away. (BSS)
Zier  
this Hutt was a member of the Besadii kajidic, and was Durga's chief rival for power in the aftermath of Aruk's assassination. In an effort to "keep friends close and enemies closer," Durga made Zier one of his chief lieutenants, but this didn't stop Zier from questioning Durga's motives in dealing with Black Sun. He told Durga that Besadii would not fund the investigation of Aruk's death, and continued draining of Besadii funds would result in retribution against Durga. (RD)
Ziering  
this man served the Empire as a General in the armed forces during the height of the New Order. He was stationed on Maridun shortly after the Battle of Yavin, and was dismayed to find himself commanding well-heeled officers who preferred to strut around like birds instead of doing actual work. When he encountered Lieutenant Janek Sunber and his troops, Ziering believed that he had finally found a young officer worthy of his position. When Sunber managed to get most of the group under cover after they stumbled into an Amanin takital, Ziering commended his quick thinking. Shortly afterward, Ziering was injured in a separate Amanin attack, and nearly lost an eye when a Juggernaut exploded in his face. This allowed Captain Gage and Commander Frickett to assume control of the compound, which proved disastrous when they were unable to anticipate the attack plans of the Amanin. Ziering's injury required surgery, which prohibited him from regaining control. In the meantime, Frickett was killed in an ambush, and Gage was unable to estimate the true strength of the Amanin attack force, leaving the Imperials with little hope of survival. However, Sunber came up with a plan that allowed the Imperials a chance of survival, and Ziering promoted him to Captain for his quick thinking and on-the-spot ideas. He then approved of Sunber's retreat plans, and was astonished when Sunber's team completed them in half the time. (SWELM)

The brothers agreed to the sale, and left with a meager profit after paying off their debts. The Geelan renamed the station in honor of the brothers. Shortly after the rise of Emperor Palpatine and the New Order, Zirtran's Anchor suddenly disappeared. It later reappeared, empty and abandoned, near the Phosphura Belt Nebula, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. The Anchor was actually a series of old starship hulls welded together to form modular living areas.

Zlarb  
Zlarb learned at an early age that a life of crime was an easier life than legitimate work because he didn't have to put in 70 hours a shift but got paid fairly well. He started working as an enforcer for Ploovo Two-for-One, eventually becoming one of Ploovo's bodyguards. However, he soon saw that Pllovo's lack of ambition meant that the bodyguard work was a dead end. He broke off with Ploovo, and went into the slave trade. As a human, Zlarb found it easy to work as a slaver, but he was eventually caught by Magg, who was working for the Corporate Sector Authority. Zlarb figured his career - and probably his life - was over, but Magg proposed a partnership. At first, Zlarb had no reason to trust Magg, but their relationship grew. Magg's inside information, coupled with the underhanded slave dealings the Authority was involved with, meant Zlarb had steady work.Zlabr was also responsible for establishing a relationship with the clans on Ammuud, who supplied permits and ship charters for the vessels sued by the slavers. Thus, when the Mor Glayyd threatened to expose the slavery ring, Zlarb was forced to poison him in order to keep him silent. Zlarb was later hired by Magg and the Authority to obtain a number of Lurian individuals for work on illegal genetic experiments. Zlarb, in turn, hired Han Solo to meet him on Lur and transport the captured geneticists to their final destination. Zlarb was supposed to deliver his Lurian slaves to the planet Bonadan. Han had a rule that he never transported slaves, and the odds were against him until Bollux and Blue Max set off the Millennium Falcon's fire extinguishing systems, temporarily disarming Zlarb and his thugs. This allowed Han and Chewie to subdue the thugs and free the Lurians, who eventually killed Zlarb and returned to their planet. Zlarb was a practitioner of the Malkite poisoning techniques, and was found to be carrying one of their tool kits after his death. This allowed Solo and Fiolla to implicate him in the murder of the Mor Glayyd, adding further evidence to the mounting collection against the slavers. (HSR, CSA)
Zlash  
this well-educated (Rodian?) assassin was living in the Cularin System during the height of the Clone Wars. Mister Zlash was one of many beings in the system who were glad to see Cularin finally freed from the control of the Thaereian Military, and believed that Cularin would prosper despite the growing threat of the Clone Wars. He often argued the relative merits of defeating the Thaereians with his friend, Mister Haque, who feared that the timing of the defeat of the Thaereians - coupled with the continuing Clone Wars - would spell even more trouble for Cularin. (LFCW)
Zlato  
this Toydarian thief was active on Cloud City, during the early years of the New Order. Shortly before Lando Calrissian won the outpost in a card game, Zlato and his alien partner were hired by Baron Raynor to "steal" his wife's pendant and lure Calrissian into the match. (T3)
Zlato's Place  
this tavern, located in one of Coruscant's busiest residential cityblocks, was owned by the Sljee known as Jeseej. The restaurant always seemed to be half-full and operating at a loss, which was fine with Jeseej, since Zlato's Place was actually a front for his forgery and fortune-telling businesses. Many beings who visited Zlato's assumed that it was owned by a Toydarian, since all of its wait staff was Toydarian by race, and most of its menu was based on Toydarian specialities. (WOTC, CCW)
Zlorr Uluj  
this name was common among the members of the Squalris race. (GORW)
Z-N0  
this battered J9 worker drone was rebuilt and reprogrammed to serve as a translator and personal assistant to the Jedi Knight Ambaln, during the last decades of the Old Republic. Known as Zeeno, the droid was denoted by the Jedi symbol painted on the back of its head. Z-N0 was extremely loyal to the Jedi Order, and became confused when Ambaln split with the Order to start his own cadre' of Jedi Knights. When Ambaln fled into the watery depths of Lobaoc's shallow seas, taking a young Jedi candidate with him, Z-N0 returned to Coruscant to provide any information it could on Ambaln's plans. (WOA16)

Zochaeb  
this ancient Hutt negotiated with the Nimbanese Krovalis clan, during their attempt to regain status as a data holding family under the Bureau of Ships and Services. The Krovalis offered Zochaeb and the Hutts free access to the information in their data holding in return for their freedom. Zochaeb agreed, and petitioned the BoSS to allow Nimbanese clans to reclaim their membership. The Hutts' persuasion eventually got the Krovalis clan its own data holding, and the Hutts received a wealth of free information about the galaxy. (GG12)

Zokor Polpot  
this being served as the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Coruscant during the height of the New Order. Polpot longed to be Chancellor, and developed a scheme in which he stole the head of the accounting droid 8t88 in order to embarrass his boss in front of the leaders of the Woostri HoloScan Database. The plan worked quite well, and Polpot assume the role of full Chancellor after his boss suddenly resigned. Unknown to Polpot, he had become the target of 8t88, who considered Polpot's act to be one of "disfigurment," and rooted in anti-droid prejudices. During a trip to Mawan, Chancellor Polpot was killed in a fatal accident that happened to coincide with a sighting of 8t88, although the droid appeared to have the head of an EV-series droid at the time. (SWMW)
Zolag  
this being, a native of the planet Tammuz-an, was dispatched to Tyne's Horky to recover Mun Julpa, during the early years of the New Order. The former adviser to the crown-prince, Zolag had to work against the bounty hunting droid, IG-88, in order to reach Mon Julpa first. With the help of Jann Tosh and his droids, R2-D2 and C-3PO, Zolag managed to return Mon Julpa to his homeworld. They were met there by IG-88, who was working for Zatec-Cha, and who quickly captured them and took the crown-prince's royal scepter. Note that the Star Wars Databank indicates this being's name was Sollag. (DCAR, SWDB)
Zolall  
this unusual predator was native to the planet Merisee. A nocturnal hunter, the zolall was a hairless, slippery, smooth-skinned creature which could glide through the air by filling specialized sacs in its abdomen with air. These creatures had floppy, triangular wings, but they were ineffectual for flying. Zolalls could control their flight by moving their long tail. These creatures used their sharp fangs to inject a poison into their prey, and the poison was actually "harvested" by the assassins of the Loag for use as a weapon. Zolall were somewhat trainable, and many of the Loag used them as watchbeasts at their bases. (PG3)
Zolan  
this planet was the homeworld of the Clawdite and Zolander races. Many species which were native to the planet had the ability to camouflage themselves by altering their skin color, a trait which was dormant in the sentient Zolander race. Note that this planet is also called Zolander in the Star Wars Databank. (SWI60, SWDB, SWI70)
Zolander  
this alien race was native to the planet Zolan, living in the frozen arctic regions to which they became adapted over the generations. Unlike the religious Clawdites, the Zolanders were known for their warrior caste and martial prowess. Many centuries before the onset of the Clone Wars, the Zolander people discovered that their sun had begun sending out stronger and stronger emissions of radioactivity. Scientists tried to trigger a long-dormant gene in the Zolander skin cell, hoping to activate a natural protection against the radiation. Unfortunately, the experiment failed to elicit the desire results. Instead, it triggered an ability to alter one's physical appearance, thereby creating the Clawdite race over the succeeding generations. The Zolanders ostracized the original Clawdites, and waged many civil wars to keep the changelings at bay. The Zolanders' hatred of the Clawdites deepened when the Empire blockaded Zolan and prohibited any travell off-planet, in a effort to keep the Clawdites under contro. As soon as the Empire was defeated at Endor, full-scale civil war broke out on Zolan. The Clawdites, however, were better prepared for war, and quickly subjugated the Zolanders. Note that Star Wars Insider, issue 70 indicates that radioactive bombardment from outer space triggered the change in the Zolanders, rather than a failed experiment, resulting in the creation of the Clawdite race. (SWI60, SWDB, SWI70)
Zollarcos, Treta  
this Professor of Astrogation taught at the New Republic Astrographic Studies Center during the years following the Battle of Endor.

She was the apprentice of Jedi Master Dominus, and was later captured by Exar Kun's Dark Side spells. She was turned to the Dark Side, and killed Dominis during the Sith War. (TSW)
Zonama  
this was the Ferroan name of the material part of the planet Zonama Sekot. The name 'Zonama' referred to the physical make-up of the planet, as compared to the 'Sekot,' or living part of the planet. When the conflict between the Galactic Alliance and the Yuuzhan Vong came to an end some thirty years after the Battle of Yavin, Sekot realized that Zonama was actually a form of seed, cast out from the original planet of Yuuzhan'tar many millennia before. Yuuzhan'tar, realizing that the ur-Yuuzhan Vong were going to destroy themselves with war and conflict, stripped them of the Force and send Zonama into the void, hoping that its offspring would evolve over time and serve as a possible home for a more enlightened Yuuzhan Vong civilization. This hope was eventually fulfilled when the Galactic Alliance, acting on the advice of Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, allowed those Yuuzhan Vong who surrendered their weapons to live on Zonama Sekot. Sekot then took Zonama and fled into the Unknown Regions, where the Yuuzhan Vong could evolve without interruption. (RP, UF)
Zonama Sekot  
this planet was located in the Gardaji Rift, at the edge of the Tingel Arm, some 30 years before the Battle of Yavin. Zonama Sekot was just over 11,000 kilometers in diameter, and because of its proximity to three stars, a special three-pointed compass was developed by the original settlers. Old Republic records of some 200 years earlier indicate the system was nothing more than proto-materials, but many believe this was just a mix-up in the Republic's databases. It orbited a yellow star which was gravitationally bound to a red giant and a white dwarf, creating a unique triple-star system. The two other stars created a spectacular pinwheel of light in the planet's sky. Despite this unusual arrangement, the system was hard to find, being surrounded by the gases of the Gardaji Rift. The natives of the planet worked hard to keep their planet's location a secret, and visitors were accepted only by invitation. Zonama Sekot was unusually strong with the Force, and had been settled by several groups over the years, and the people of the planet were known for their incredibly fast starships. The planet was covered with an incredibly dense jungle which seemed to move and adjust to the planet's position. Zonama Sekot was settled some sixty years before the Battle of Naboo by two peoples, a group of Ferroans and a group of Langhesi. The original Magister of the planet, Leor Hal, placed the Ferroans upland, and the Langhesi in the lowlands, in order to maintain peace and use their skills to the planet's advantage. The name of the planet was first given by Leor Hal, and in the Ferroan language meant "World of Body and Mind": Zonama, indicating the physical world; and Sekot, representing the living world. It was also referred to as the Green Land by many beings who visited the world. The planet was, in essence, alive, although the original Magister believed that it was simply the will of the Potentium being manifested in the planet. He was unaware that his connection to the planet had actually awakened its own individual identity, with the Sekot controlling everything from weather to growth and death. Shortly after the Battle of Naboo, the planet was attacked twice. The first time, a group of Far Outsiders arrived from outside the known galaxy, looking for a new homeworld. Zonama Sekot seemed to be the perfect choice, since it was alive in a way that was similar to long-lost Yuuzhan'tar. With its new identity, Zonama Sekot tried to negotiate with the Yuuzhan Vong. However, anything the Yuuzhan Vong planted was destroyed by Zonama Sekot's native lifeforms, and the Yuuzhan Vong believed that they had been tricked. They launched an attack, which Zonama Sekot was able to repel with the help of the Jedi Knight Vergere. However, great portions of the southern hemisphere were damaged, and were still healing a year later. The second time, Wilhuff Tarkin tried to take control of the planet, hoping to present it and its wondous factories to Chancellor Palpatine. The natives managed to hold off Tarkin's small force. Unknown to everyone, under the guidance of the Sekot, the Ferroans and Langhesi had built huge hyperdrives into the planet's crust, and simply took the entire planet into hyperspace to avoid Tarkin's fleet. The planet was not seen again for many decades, having moved across the galaxy is search of a new home. It eventually settled in the Klasse Ephemora System, hidden behind a cluster of hyperspace anomalies. It was relocated during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy by Luke Skywalker and the Jedi Knights, as well as a Yuuzhan Vong attack force. Zonama Sekot managed to repel the Yuuzhan Vong, and allowed the Jedi to land. It then placed the Jedi through a series of trials to determine their true reasons for arriving on the planet, and eventually agreed to accompany the Jedi back to the galaxy to assist in the war effort against the Yuuzhan Vong. The sudden appearance of Tahiri Veila, Corran Horn, and the Yuuzhan Vong Nen Yim, Harrar, and Yu'shaa, nearly destroyed any hopes of actually winning the war. The group had traveled to the planet after Tahiri made a promise to locate the world for Hul Qat, the Shamed One who had found her on Dagobah. Yu'shaa, who was actually Nom Anor, managed to set and incubator deep within the neural network of the planet's hyperdrive system, hoping to set off a overload and destroy the planet. However, Sekot itself managed to locate the incubator and disable it. Rather than exploding, Zonama Sekot jumped deep into hyperspace, without any idea of where it was going. These jumps caused immeasurable damage to the planet's surface, killing off landmasses and forcing the inhabitants to flee underground. As Sekot finally regained control, it made its decision to continue with its attempt to end the war with the Yuuzhan Vong, made a hyperspace jump to the planet Coruscant. Brinigng itself into a position to eclipse the planet's sun, Zonama Sekot used its gravitational force to destroy the Rainbow Bridge and push Coruscant's remaining three moons out of position. The sudden appearance of the planet forced the Yuuzhan Vong military leaders to break off their attack on Mon Calamari and return to the Core to protect Supreme Overlord Shimrra and the Citadel. Zonama Sekot remained out of the main fighting, and forced those Jedi who had bonded with a Sekotan starship to only fly defensively. When Sekot realized that Shimrra had sent a dying coralskipper, infected with the Alpha Red virus, to destroy the planet, it reverted back to its original plan to "fight without fighting." All Sekotan ships were rendered useless, and Sekot deployed a swarm of grappler craft to bring down any ship it found in its airspace. The Magister Jabitha explained to the Jedi still on Zonama Sekot that the planet had chosen to bring the Yuuzhan Vong home, rather than harm them further. With the deaths of Shimrra and Onimi, the Yuuzhan Vong surrendered to the Galactic Alliance. The Jedi Knights convinced the fledgling Galactic Alliance to allow the surviving Yuuzhan Vong to live on Zonama Sekot, which was more their homeworld than any other race. The Alliance agreed, and after many of the Yuuzhan Vong returned from their postings to arrive on the planet, Sekot took Zonama and fled into the Unknown Regions. There, Sekot reasoned, the planet and the Yuuzhan Vong could become reacquainted without outside interference. (RP, DW, FH3, FP, UF)
Zonaman  
this was the name used to describe the collective group of Ferroan and Langhesi colonists who settled the planet Zonama Sekot. (RP)
Zonder  
this man was part of the hunting party arranged by Jameson and Lajar Weqill. Unfortunately, Zonder was killed by a pack of crazed draagax. (COG)
Zonder  
this fur-covered Selonian was one of the many Jedi Knights who fought for the Old Republic during the height of the Clone Wars. Zonder was the Padawan learner chosen by Barriss Offee, just before they were dispatched to Felucia to capture Shu Mai on Felucia. Their mission was part of the Republic's plan to capture all the leaders of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, in an effort to force Count Dooku to surrender. Zonder, along with Ekria and Drake Lo'gaan, managed to intercept the communication of Order 66 to Commander Bly on Felucia. Interestingly, they found that it had been sent on a secure Republic link, but with encryption used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Unfortunately, they discovered the message's true intent too late, and were forced to stand by as Aayla Secura was cut down by Bly and his clones. After escaping from Felucia, Zonder, Ekria, and Drake returned to Coruscant as refugees, then slipped into the Jedi Temple. There, Ekria erased all information on them from the computer banks of the Jedi Archives, allowing them to continue to operate undercover. The Padawans then tried to blend in by getting normal jobs, but Zonder was sent to a work crew while Drake was taken to a COMPNOR meeting. (ROF, EAR)
Zone 19

Zone Control  
this weapons manufacturer produced the Viper grenade launcher and other after-market add-ons for blaster weapons. They also produced security scanners. (CFG, ROE)
Zone of Self-Containment  
developed by Jenna Zan Arbor from a base on Vanqor, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars, this drug caused almost immediate unconsciousness when breathed by most humans and humanoid races. The drug was a liquid that was colorless and odorless, so it could be administered to prisoners without their knowledge when they were brought into a facility and bathed or given a drink of water. The drug acted quickly, putting victims to sleep and altering their mental conditions. Upon waking, victims found that anything that was bothering them no longer seemed to matter. Everything was right with the world, and any urge to fight against the things that bothered them was swept away and replaced with a sense of calm and peace. One interesting side effect of the Zone of Self-Containment - and part of Zan Arbor's continued research - was that the drug limited a Force-sensitive being unable to commune with the Force on any but the most basic levels. This was borne out when Anakin Skywalker was captured on Vanqor and drugged, some years before the Battle of Geonosis. The Jedi traced the Zone and Zan Arbor to Romin, where they discovered that Granta Omega and Roy Teda were supporting Zan Arbor's development efforts. The three criminals were trying to find a way to disperse the Zone without attracting attention, and had nearly perfected a water-borne delivery mechanism when they were forced off Romin. They nearly succeeded in developing a system at the Blackwater Systems facility on Falleen, but this facility was also discovered by the Jedi. (JQ7, JQ8, JQ9)
Zone Supplies, Limited

Zones of Territory C2  
this collection of terrains and climates was located on the planet OM813. Students of the Galactic Outdoor Survival School had to pass through each and every section of this area in order to graduate from the survivalist course offered by Barosa Warren. In addition to the various jungle, desert, aquatic, flatland, and mountainous terrains contained within C2, there were multiple types of individual terrains as well. There were heavy-gravity mountains, ammonia seas, glaciers, swamplands, and even a zero-gravity chamber. (AIR)
Zonju V  
this desolate planet was located on the far rim of the galaxy. Its surface was dominated by canyons and ravines dotted by sparse vegetation. (JKA)
Zonnos Anjiliac Priare  
this Hutt, the eldest child of Popara the Hutt, was known to other Hutts as Zonnos the Lesser. He was known to have maintained a group of Wookiee bodyguards during the early years of the New Order. Dspite his familial connection to Popara, Zonnos operated to his own agenda, which sometimes conflicted with that of his parent. Specifically, Zonnos was angry and jealous that Popara gave so much attention to his other offspring, Mika, and was willing to do whatever it took keep Mika in the background of the Anjiliac clan's operations. When Mika was stranded on Endregaad, Zonnos arranged to have a group of Bomu clan Rodians waylay the resuce mission. When the Bomu failed and Mika returned to Nar Shaddaa, Zonnos feigned relief, but refused to admit to any connection to the Bomu. For their part, the Bomu also refused to admit to a link, claiming that they had been hired by a third party. In the wake of Popara's murder and Mika's flight from Anjiliac Towers, Zonnos assumed control of the kajidic. Unknown to Mika, Zonnos had been taking tempest, and he went into a killing rage after Popara's death. Zonnos captured the agents who had been working for Popara, and ordered their immediate interrogation and execution. Vago, however, secretly hired them to track down Mika and the source of the tempest spice. With the agents freed, Zonnos placed a significant bounty on their heads, in an effort to entice most of Nar Shaddaa into recapturing them. In an effort to avenge the death of Popara, Zonnos apprehended Vago and held the Hutt captive, using his H-3PO droids to set a trap for the agents. His trap managed to capture a handful of the agents, as well as Angela Krin and Mika himself. During the interrogation of the captives, Zonnos experienced one of the most intense tempest highs of his life, and he shouted and screamed at any being who talked to him. In the midst of the interrogation, however, the tempest became too much for Zonnos. His mind snapped, and he went into a killing rage. The agents managed to get free before Zonnos could have them executed, and they captured the slobbering Zonnos. This fit in well with Mika's own plans, as he now had eliminated the two Hutts in the way of his own control of the Anjiliac clan. (TF, WOTC)

Zora  
this woman was one of Krayn's most trusted lieutenants, some four years after the Battle of Naboo. Zora and Rashtah the Wookiee were the point beings in many of Krayn's hijacking missions. Zora had joined Krayn's band a year before, and it was later revealed that Zora was a pseudonym, adopted by the Jedi Knight Siri Tachi. Siri had been sent on a mission to infiltrate Krayn's organization, and he had no idea that she was connected to the Jedi. When the slavers' ship was infiltrated by Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, who had been accompanying a Colicoid convoy, Zora managed to trap Anakin aboard the ship while forcing Obi-Wan's small shuttle to abandon him. Zora claimed Anakin was nothing but a slave, then confiscated Anakin's lightsaber. Later, however, she revealed that the Zora identity was developed to get her inside Krayn's organization, and that she was still a Jedi Knight. (JQ)
Zorad, Kiros  
this native of Arda-2 was under the control of Mag Doum, to whom he owed a great deal of money. Doum ordered Kiros to control Leia Organa while she was on the planet trying to resolve the puzzle of the T-6 diodem. Kiros and his son, Zon, tried to contain Leia at the Qualo's palace, but were forced to hide her in the Colla-Di caves after Luke Skywalker tried to rescue her. After Leia and Zon escaped from the kdak and Luke rescued them, Kiros decided to fight back against Doum. He exposed the criminal in front of the merchants and executives of Tun Wala, but was abducted by Imperial forces who had descended on the planet. Kiros was killed trying to attack Darth Vader. (CSWEA)
Zorad, Zon  
Kiros Zorad's son, Zon accompanied Leia Organa into the Colla-Di caverns, after she had been captured on Arda-2. They were attacked by a kdak while inside the caverns, but they managed to squeeze into a small passage and escape. Zon was an excellent pilot, and took Cova's place when the Tun Walans fought back against the Empire. He flew an X-Wing against the Imperial fleet, but took severe damage trying to rescue his father. He then crashed his damaged ship into Darth Vader's Star Destroyer, sacrificing himself to drive off the fleet. (CSWEA)
Zorak  
this Ewok was a former shaman, who was exiled from his tribe when he became an evil sorcerer. Zorak seduced Teebo into becoming his apprentice, preying on Teebo's own frustration at the pace of his training under Logray. Logray, upon learning of Teebo's plans, set out with Wicket, Kneesaa, and Latara to rescue him from Zorak. Zorak, however, captured the rescue party. This action broke the "spell" in which Teebo had been living, and he defeated Zorak in combat and freed his friends. (ECAR)
Zoraster  
a planet. (JQ)
Zorba Desilijic Tiure  
Zorba was Jabba the Hutt's father, a huge Hutt with stringy white hair and a white beard. The fact that he had hair at all, let alone a full head and beard's worth, made Zorba something of a mutant among his fellow Hutts. He kept his hair braided, in order to keep it from falling into his face. Zorba was 400 years old when he birthed Jabba, and taught Jabba everything he could about the politics of Nal Hutta's criminal organizations. Just as ruthless and conniving as Jabba, Zorba was imprisoned on Kip for illegally mining ulikuo gemstones when Jabba was killed on Tatooine. When Zorba was set free by a group of pirates who attacked Kip, he returned to Tatooine, hoping to join his son's empire. It was later discovered that Zorba's escape had been engineered by Ysanne Isard, in an effort to recapture Cloud City. When Zorba found that Jabba had been killed by Princess Leia, he immediately sought her out for revenge. On this path, he won Cloud City from Lando Calrissian in a rigged sabacc match. He then tried to swap the Jedi Prince Ken for Princess Leia, who was being held by Trioculus. Leia and Ken escaped, and Zorba had Trioculus entombed in carbonite. After capturing Leia on Hologram Fun World, Zorba tried to take her to the Great Pit of Carkoon, on Tatooine, to feed her to the Sarlacc. He was intercepted by the Grand Moffs, who unfroze Trioculus, captured Leia, and then threw Zorba into the Sarlacc Pit. Fortunately for Zorba, the Sarlacc spit him out.

Zorbazat Xong  
this Yevethan served as the Minister of Homeland Security on N'zoth, during the years leading up to the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. He believed that learning the Basic language would help him understand his enemies, but it actually angered his fellow Yevetha to the point that they nearly exiled him. Xong proved hiw worth, however, and was allowed to continue his service. Xong agreed to turn over a Yuuzhan Vong spy, captured during the aliens' invasion of the galaxy, to the New Republic. However, rather than turning over a living being, Xong ordered that the spy be brutally interrogated and executed in front of the Republic's agents. Xong than declared that the spy's body could be "taken back to your vile masters." (CCW)
Zorbia I  
this was the innermost world in the Zorbia System, located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. (GMR9)
Zorbia II  
this temperate planet, the second world in the Zorbia System, was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. It was home to a colony of humans whose language was an obscure derivation of the Corellian language, which led many xenoarchaeologists to believe the Zorbian population sprang from a long-lost Corellian colony. The Zorbian population had records which dated back more than a thousand years before the Galactic Civil War, predating the Old Republic's earliest excursions into the Moddell Sector. The planet's inhabitants were known as pirates and criminals who largely preyed on each other, although occasional ambushes in other parts of the sector were not uncommon. (GMR9)
Zorbia III  
this was the third and outermost world in the Zorbia System, located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. (GMR9)
Zorbian  
this was the term used to describe the human population of the planet Zorbia II. Many xenoarchaeologists believed that these humans has a distant relationship to the Corellians, since their language seemed to be an archaic derivative of the Corellian language. (GMR9)

Zorn, Duan  
this man was a corporate drone who worked for the Kazellis Corporation. When the corporation was nationalized by the Empire, Zorn stole the demostration freighter Longrunner and fled Kathol Sector, hoping to make a living as a freetrader. When he failed to pay his starport fees on Nigel III, Zorn was arrested on two counts: the original theft of the Longrunner, and his failure to make his payments. (SS)
Zorneth  
this Ithorian is somewhat of a rogue, for he created a plot to take control of the galaxy. He wears a form of Ithorian battle armor, and protects himself with a group of guard droids; this show of force is yet another example of his roguish behavior. Zorneth is an expert in the fields of animal husbandry and botany, and was a contemporary associate of Klorr Vilia. When Vilia believed that he had created the universal herb, he invited to Zorneth to taste it. Zorneth declined, because he was a vegetarian and Vilia had seasoned meat with the new herb, savorium. Vilia then consumed the first taste, and was affected by the bliss-inducing properties of the herb. Zorneth took Vilia into his care, and eventually sorted through enough of Vilia's notes to deduce how savorium was propogated. Zorneth then realized that the affects of savorium would create a mindless workforce that could be exploited by the evil powers in the galaxy. He took Vilia into hiding, and began dosing warring peoples to test the strength of the herb. The results were astounding, and Zorneth tried to keep it secret. A small sample was stolen from Vilia's lab, and a group of Smilers was created. Zorneth moved to protect them, creating a Caretaker Virus to cause droids to protect Smilers around them. It was about five years after the discovery of savorium that Zorneth realized he could use it to subjugate the meat-eating species of the galaxy, paving the way for the peaceful vegetarians to control the stars. He began growing large amounts of savorium aboard his herd ship, and jealously protected it. At this time, he employed C-3PO as a translator and R2-D2 as a worker. The droids helped Zorneth defeat Dictator-Forever Craw, who had kidnapped Vilia in an attempt to steal the secret of savorium. However, Craw's forces pursued Zorneth's fleeing herd ship. This caused several of Zorneth's droids, including PDA6, to activate the self-destruct programs Zorneth created for use if capture was imminent. Zorneth pursued Vilia into the savorium grove as his ship's defenses destroyed the grove. Both Vilia and Zorneth were consumed in the explosion. (DRO)
Zorneth  
this Ithorian surname was believed to mean "historian", according to historian who studied the Ithorian race. (GCG)
Zornog  
this red-skinned, insectile alien was native to the planet Sooma. Sometime before the Battle of Yavin, Zornog found himself the object of King Gokus' anger, when it was discovered that Prince Plooz of Alzar had stowed away aboard a freighter and ended up on Sooma. (MDCAR)

Zo'Tannath  
this woman was a bounty hunter who preferred to wear Ubese battle armor. She often worked on retainer for Pok Nar-Ten, but usually made her services available to the highest bidder. Few beings ever saw her real face without dying, a mystique she cultivated to add to her prowess. Note that the Ultimate Alien Anthology indicates Zo'Tannath was an actual member of the Ubese race. (PSG, UANT)
Zoth  
this common, albeit archaic, Zabrak surname meant "physician" - or, more literally, "fate guardian". (GCG)
Zothip  
a Cavrilhu pirate captain from whom Niles Ferrier stole a number of patrol ships. Ferrier sold the ships to Grand Admiral Thrawn, and Zothip vowed to get revenge on Ferrier. Zothip was born on the planet Bestine, but settled his operation in the Amorris System. Zithip got his chance when Moff Disra offered him a supply of clones from Imperial storehouses in return for the production of a supply of Preybird-class starfighters. Zothip agreed to the deal, and used his clones to augment his pirate ranks. Using flash imprinting to give the clones the necessary characteristics, Zothip was able to send out a large force of pirates in a relatively short time. When the Cavrilhu tried to intercept a New Republic convoy at Iphigin, however, Luke Skywalker discovered the clones on one of the raiding ships. He went in search of the clones, infiltrating Zothip's base in the Kauron asteroid belt. It was at this time that Major Tierce, acting outside of Disra's approval, cut off the supply of clones in order to shore up Imperial defenses. Zothip agreed to continue working with Disra, and was in charge of the small fleet that tried to intercept Admiral Pellaeon at Pesitiin. The short battle resulted in the loss of one of Zothip's Kaloth-class battle cruisers, and Zothip travelled to Bastion to obtain compensation for the loss. Unfortunately for him, Karoly D'ulin was trying to tail Han Solo and Lando Calrissian when she stumbled upon the pirates. She followed them to Moff Disra's apartments, where Zothip demanded twenty million credits from Disra. Disra declined, and Zothip and his men tried to attack. Major Tierce managed to stop several of the pirates, and Karoly took out several more. Zothip tried to kill Disra, but Karoly buried a knife in his back and split his spine. (DFR, DFRSB, SOP, VOF)

Zoul Lavor Xariv Lar  
this legendary Bitthaevrian warrior was a Major in the Guiteica Militia, and was best-known for his decades-long feud with Major Quaal Stavi Giniras. The pair fought each other more than 400 times, each time inflicting heavy damage to the other. However, both warriors were back challenging each other as soon as they healed. Over fifty years' time, Lar had defeated Giniras 212 victories to 211. Only the fact that Giniras died of old age stopped the rivalry. In the end, Lar took one of his own elbow quill and imbedded it in Giniras' dematoil, which he buried with Giniras in the hills of s'Korth'an. (AIR)
Zoul Minchov Dwaeer

developed by Sienar Intelligence Systems, this droid was created to serve as infantry support during ground battles. In this capacity, the ZQ was well-designed, and was considered one of the most deadly battle droids ever produced. Measuring about a meter in height, this cylindrical ZQ moved about on a repulsorlift engine and was armed with a heavy blaster cannon, a light blaster cannon, and a miniature concussion missile launcher. After the Battle of Endor, the Empire denied having any ZQs in active duty, despite their presence on many battlefields. (FTD)

this Verpine was a member of the support team for Wedge Antilles' Rogue Squadron. He was from the asteroid Roche G42. He was in charge of keeping Rogue Squadron's X-Wings in tip-top shape, and he worked hard to keep from tinkering with the ships. His Verpine mentality often got the best of him, though, and small modifications were always showing up. As luck would have it, Zraii's modifications often improved the Rogues' performance. (XWN)

Zsajhira  
the berries of this plant were edible, and were often mascerated and cooked into a sauce which complimented all sorts of poultry, especially uln bird. The zsajhira was native to the planet Socorro, where it thrived near underground water reserves. Perhaps the best-known use of the zsajhira berry was in the fermentation of Socorroan raava. (SWJ12, BSS)
Zsall Dubrotin  
this female Advozse was the daughter of Zom Dubrotin. During the Galactic Civil War, she was also a secret ally of the Alliance, keeping the Alliance informed of activities in the Riflorii System. Later, when the Yuuzhan Vong launched their invasion of the galaxy, Zsall assumed control of the Bomminde family, ensuring that they survived the attack on Riflor and helping any other Advozsec survivors reach safety. True to her nature, Zsall also provided the New Republic with any information gathered on Yuuzhan Vong fleet movements in the area. (GMR4)
Zsing, Thak Val  
this grizzled, red-haired man was the leader of the Desert Wind terrorist group, which opposed the tyranny of the Five Families on the planet Ord Cestus, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. His grandfather was once a prisoner of the Cestus prison facilities, and he passed on a great deal of knowledge about the underground lair of the Five Families to his son and grandson. Thak Val Zsing took control of Desert Wind nearly thirty years before the Battle of Geonosis. A former history professor at one of Cestus' outlying schools, he found himself unemployed when the Families cut off all funding for social programs and utilities to the area in which he taught. In addition to his own hardships, Thak Val Zsing witnessed the troubles forced upon the families of his students. Rather than sit back and accept his fate, he began training soldiers for Desert Wind. After surviving the attack that left Desert Wind decimated, Thak Val Zsing hid out in the desert for many years, biding his time in order to once again regroup. He saw his chance when Jedi Master Kit Fisto and an ARC trooper known as Nate began recruiting locals for a chance to strike back at the rulers of Ord Cestus. He did his best to keep up with the new recruits, but deep down Thak Val Zsing was tired of fighting. He recognized that he was losing leadership of Desert Wind to Master Fisto, but he also realized that Desert Wind was finally striking back against the Five Families. After a successful terrorist attack on a power supply facility, he grabbed a bottle of Chandrilan brandy and got drunk. He was so inebriated that he failed to raise any alarm when he noticed a group of plastidroids and JK-series security droids infiltrate their base, fearing for his own life, and his lack of action led to the deaths of many Desert Wind fighters. In the aftermath of the raid, his mind snapped. He was eventually rescued, but was never the same again. He remained quite cognizent of his surroundings, however, and was one of the first to notice that the Five Families had retreated to their hidden bunker when the Nexu arrived in orbit around Ord Cestus. He agreed to assist Jangotat in infiltrating the compound, then decided to redeem himself by strapping an explosive device to his chest and entering the complex first. When he was surrounded by battle droids, he detonated the explosive, clearing the way for Jangotat to enter. (TCD)
Zsinj  
a pudgy, balding man with a large gray moustache, Zsinj was a native of the planet Fondor. As an Imperial warlord who rose to power in the wake of the Battle of Endor, Zsinj controlled the Quelii sector. He served the Empire as Captain of the Victory-class Star Destroyer Iron Fist before the Battle of Endor destroyed the Empire. Zsinj decided to become a rogue, and fled Imperial service to carve out his own empire. In time, Zsinj proclaimed himself a Warlord and commanded one of the more potent forces opposing the New Republic. After several years, Zsinj managed to obtain possession of a Super-class Star Destroyer, which he renamed Iron Fist in honor of his first command. He began raiding New Republic supply convoys, and was a thorn in the New Republic's side. It was discovered that he was not in league with Ysanne Isard and her bid to control the Empire. In fact, Zsinj often tried to thwart her activities. It was during this time that Zsinj began wearing the all-white uniform of a Grand Admiral, even though he had never held the position in Imperial service, nor was he officially aligned with the Empire. A devious man and conniving man who held a great deal of emphasis on appearances, Zsinj often would drink non-alcoholic beverages with his subordinates, feigning inebriation to see how his people would react. Han Solo agreed to take a fleet and search out Zsinj in an effort to bring the warlord down and end his reign of terror. Zsinj remained one step ahead of the Republic's forces for several years before they managed to destroy the Razor's Kiss, a second Super-class destroyer being built at Kuat Drive Yards. Zsinj used the parts recovered from the Razor's Kiss to form the Second Death, and used the mock-up during the Battle of Selaggis. Zsinj was nearly defeated at Vahaba before fleeing to Selaggis, where Solo nearly destroyed him. In a bold move, he fled the battle behind a screen formed by Orbital Nightcloak satellites, then detonated the Second Death in order to fool Solo and the Republic into believing that the Iron Fist was gone. Zsinj himself fled the battle in a shuttle, completing the illusion. He then went into hiding at Rancor Base, on Dathomir, where he began planning his next assault. At Dathomir, Zsinj tried to force the New Republic into action by setting up an orbital nightcloak to freeze the planet and kill its inhabitants, but the Republic's forces were able to defeat the nightcloak and destroy the Iron Fist. Zsinj, who was on board the ship when it was destroyed, was killed. (CPL, WG, IF, SOC)

Zssik  
this was one of the strongest Trandoshan clans who operated a slaving ring in the Kashyyyk System during the height of the Galactic Civil War. The Zssik clan was usually at odds with the Blackscales, a conflict that came to a head on the Avatar Space Platform when members of both factions were unable to contain their aggression and launched into a full-scale riot. Imperial forces eventually stepped in to detain the two groups, but only after a group of freelance operatives managed to help several Wookiee slaves escape. (SWGAL)

Zu  
this was one of the most common names given to female Corellians. (GMR9)
Zubindi Ebsuk  
this Kubaz chef worked for Beldorion, during the Hutt's early years on Nam Chorios. Zubindi was adept at genetically and hormonally manipulating insects, forcing them to grow many times larger than their normal size. This provided the Hutt with a ready supply of large, fleshy insects for appetizers or full meals. It was Zubindi who discovered how to grow drochs to larger sizes, and this discovery led to the emergence of Dzym as a power on Nam Chorios. Zubindi died soon after, when Dzym understood the power he wielded and used the Kubaz as a search of life energy. (POT)
Zubintech  
this corporation produced droids during the last century of the Old Republic. (SWJ7)
Zucca  
this large, tusked, porcine creature was native to the planet Tatooine. (ROD)
Zuckuss  
a Gand bounty hunter employed by Darth Vader to find the Millennium Falcon. He descended from a long line of successful findsmen, and was one of the few young findsmen who left Gand to find work in the galaxy. He had a uncanny knack for finding his quarry, which he attributed to his adherence to elaborate and arcance rituals. Zuckuss joined the Bounty Hunters Guild shortly after the Battle of Yavin, and was partnered with Bossk on several training missions. They failed to recover Nil Posondum from Boba Fett, then failed to intercept Fett when he tried to join the Guild. Zuckuss was also involved in the acquisition of Oph Nar Dinnid from the Shell Hutts, another mission that resulted in failure. It was during this time that Zuckuss was also working directly for Cradossk, who hoped to eliminate his son Bossk before the younger Trandoshan could kill him. However, Zuckuss was also working for Bossk, and double-crossed Cradossk after returning from Circumtore. Several years after, Zuckuss had earned enough credits to purchase a heavily-modified starship known as the Mist Hunter, built by a consortium of Gands he led. He was hired by Jabba the Hutt, and was eventually paired with 4-LOM on many bounty missions. During one such mission, a female acquisition struggled to escape, and pulled off the mask Zuckuss wore to keep in the ammonia atmosphere he breathed. The reflexive breaths of oxygen he inhaled severely burned his lungs, and left Zuckuss disabled. Thus, he and 4-LOM began accepting Hunts on the side, trying to obtain enough credits to pay of new lungs. For this reason, Zuckuss and 4-LOM brought down Imperial Governor Nardix for the Alliance. This placed tem on the Empire's Most Wanted list, but Jabba retained them anyway. Jabba sent the two to Darth Vader as unofficial emissaries to the Empire, and they entered the Hoth System as the Battle of Hoth was concluding. The pair disabled the transport ship Bright Hope, in hopes of appeasing the Empire. After accepting the Hunt, they attempted to capture the survivors on the Hope, to turn them into the Empire for their combined bounties. However, the Alliance personnel managed to turn the two hunters from Imperial service. Zuckuss worked with 4-LOM and Toryn Farr to rescue the crew of the Hope, and they fled to the Alliance rendezvous point beyond the galactic core. There, the Alliance healed Zuckuss' lungs while accepting the two hunters into their ranks. General Rieekan enlisted the two hunters in the rescue attempt on Han Solo. They worked with several other hunters to intercept Boba Fett on Gall, but failed to recover Solo's body. Zuckuss himself was captured and used as Fett's stand-in, during the delivery of Solo's frozen body to Jabba the Hutt. Fett dressed the Gand in Mandalorian armor, and put 4-LOM's inert form on a repulsorsled. When they emerged from Slave I, Jabba's minions attacked them, only to discover their true identity as Fett held them off. Zuckuss managed to recover 4-LOM's body and have the droid restored to action, but a memory wipe was requried in order to get it working again. The operation left 4-LOM without any of its previous programming, and their collaboration was effectively finished. Zuckuss chose not to rejoin the Alliance, instead returning to bounty hunting. He did work together with 4-LOM once more, during the capture of Drawmas Sma'da, but only because 4-LOM needed someone to assist it in the capture. (ESB, EGC, CCG4, MTS, SE, SEC, TBH, MA, HM)
Zud  
this long-nosed alien tried to steal the two gemstones which protected the Red Nebula from destruction, several years before the Battle of Yavin. Zud had been part of a group of smugglers and mercenaries gathered by Klysk to help locate the stones, but chose to keep them for himself.

Zurros  
this Falleen represented his people and his homeworld to the Galactic Senate during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. However, Senator Zurros was one of the more corrupt Senators of the time, and had been playing the Republic against the Confederacy of Independent Systems in order to fill his own coffers with credits. Count Dooku ordered Quinlan Vos to assassinate Zurros as a display of Vos's loyalty and dedication to the Separatist cause. Vos, still a Jedi Knight despite his outward appearance, decided that he couldn't kill the Falleen. Instead, he cut off Zurros' topknots and recorded a plea for mercy from Zurros. Although Dooku was initially displeased that Vos did not return with Zurros' head, he realized that Vos's handling of the matter was much better. As Vos stated, Zurros would have been replaced by another Senator who was probably just as corrupt. With Zurros still alive and convinced of the threat to his life, Dooku had instead gained a new ally. (J4)
Zut  
a male phlog, mate of Dobah and father of Nahkee. (ECAR)
Zuth  
this dark-skinned man was a Jedi Master who was charged with training students in the wake of the Battle of Geonosis. His primary student was his own Padawan learner, Tu'ala. Tu'ala often questioned the reasons that one person - especially a Jedi - would sacrifice themselves to save another. Tu'ala reasoned that all beings were equal in the Force, and that no one should have to die to protect another life. Master Zuth cautioned her that she was forgetting that each being had their own destiny, along with their physical form. When an assassination attempt was made on several galactic Senators on Coruscant, Master Zuth and Tu'ala were the only Jedi on the scene. Master Zuth was killed, but not before he revealed to Tu'ala that there was a third thing that made beings unique in the Force: one's love for other beings. Tu'ala realized that she did love Zuth, and her knowledge of the Force deepened. (T14)
Zutton  
this tortured Snivvian painter lost his parents to Thalassian slavers, and joined a group of Iotran bounty hunters in an effort to strike back at the Thalassians. He eventually took up the bounty hunting trade himself, and was known by the monicker Snaggletooth. It was said that each time Zutton caught a bounty, he painted a picture dedicated to his target. His abilities attracted the attention of Jabba the Hutt, and Zutton performed a few jobs for the crimelord. Among them was the chore of trailing his own brother, Takeel, which rankled in Zutton's mind. He took out his frustrations by painting expressionist works of art depicting Jabba, hiding them in the hold of his ship, the Longest Winter. During the search for the accounting droid CZ-3, Zutton was ordered to shoot the droid with his blaster, blowing it to pieces after it provided Jabba with data on Opun Mcgrrrr's activities. Note that the Star Wars Customizable Card Game describes Zutton as an artist who was driven to live out the stories he creates. Also note that the Jedi Knights Trading Card Game claims Zutton was a holojournalist. (GG12, CCG2, SWJ11, JKG)
Zuulan Sentar  
this Gran slaver was captured on the Matale Grounds, on the planet Dantooine, during the height of the Great Sith War. (KOTOR)
Zuur  
this male Falleen was part of a small group which worked for Jib Kopatha, during the height of the New Order. Led by Xora and Zuur, the Falleen saw Kopatha's regular meetings with Darth Vader as a way to kill the Dark Lord, in revenge for his decimation of the Falleen. Although Xora wanted to act swiftly, Zuur urged caution. They saw their chance when Vader arrived at Kopatha's asteroid, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Xora lured Vader to an auxiliary hangar, where the rest of the band lay hidden. Xora tried to shoot the Dark Lord, but his skills were too swift. He knocked her to the ground, prompting Zuur and his companions to emerge from hiding. Although they had surprise and numbers on their side, the Falleen were not match for Vader. He quickly eliminated them all, putting an end to their chance for revenge. (SWEV)
Zuxu  
a vicious, aquatic carnivore, the zuxu inhabited the lakes and rivers of the planbet Ganlihk. Zuxu were unusual in that they could breath on land or in the water, and their fins were actually webbed stumps which could be used like legs. Zuxu secreted a protective oil to keep their skin moist whenever they were out of the water. The mouth of a zuxu was long and pointed, and was filled with sharp teeth. Their ability to live out of the water for several hours gave the zuxu an advantage over other fish, in that it could hunt for food in an area which supported little aquatic life. (ND, COG)

Zwil  
produced in the city of Algarine, this cake-flavoring additive had a thick, cinnamon-vanilla scent. The Drovian race, following contact with the Old Republic, became somewhat addicted to zwil, and sucked it into their systems via small, spongy plugs set into the mucous membranes with which they breathe. A more potent form, which became known as Drovian Zwil, eventually made its way to other races. (POT, CCW)

Z-X3  
this former Imperial combat droid was repaired by Kligson aboard his space station, and chose to remain on Kligson's Moon afterward. Z-X3 was originally built by TaggeCo as a prototype combat dorid that could operate in hostile environments were stormtroopers could not. Z-X3 was rejected and discarded, until it was repaired by Kligson. The droid then became the chief of security aboard the station, using his immense size and formidable appearance to quell any rebellious notions other droids might have. Z-X3 was humanoid in stature, with crimson plating and a head that resembled a stormtrooper's helmet. When Luke Skywalker arrived at Kligson's Moon just after the Battle of Hoth, Z-X3 discovered that the damaged warbot he brought still had its weapons head intact. The droid planned to use this head on another warbot Kligson had captured, creating a new combat droid which he hoped could be used to liberate he and his fellow droids from Kligson's control. Z-X3 shot Kligson himself, after Kligson was alerted to the revolt by R2-D2. However, Z-X3 was not aware that it had actually shot an android duplicate of Kligson, and was eventually destroyed in the massive battle that followed. (MC47)

Zygerian  
this human race was known more for its legacy of slavery than anything else. Native to the remote world of Zygeria, the Zygerians made up the far-reaching Zygerian Slavers Guild, which provided a ready source of slaves as well as bounty-hunting services. The average Zygerian was distinguished by their sallow skin and red hair. (GG10, WOA26)

Zygerian Slavers Guild  
this formerly-secret guild went public after the Empire legalized slavery under decree A-SL-4577.607.232. Membership in the guild was very disciplined, and members had to pay yearly dues in order to be allowed to take slaves. Each permit was issued for the capture of slaves in a given area of space. The Guild also branched out into bounty hunting, primarily as a means to obtain slaves. However, the Guild recognized no laws, and often resorted to outright banditry to further its own needs. Han Solo and Chewbacca once single-handedly attacked one of their slave transports and managed to free the slaves and drive off the Zygerians. They were so disgusted with the Zygerians for transporting slaves, that they turned the ship over to the freed slaves, cargo and all. (GG9, GG10, HTTE, SWSB)

Zythmnr's example was taken up by many other Massassi warriors, providing Exar Kun with a steady stream of subjects. (DLS, DSSB)
Zytho  
this man was one of the many settlers who worked the fields of the moon Sulon, during the early years of the New Order. It was in farmer Zytho's braal field that a reconnaissance droid from SoroSuub corporation landed and learned of the high mineral content of Sulon's crust. Within months, many farmers had been bought out and shipped off to a remote desert world, while SoroSuub began stripping the moon of its resources. (RAG)
ZZ-4Z (ZeeZee)  
Han's housecleaning droid on Nar Shaddaa, Zee-Zee was a JV-Z1/D gentlebeing droid manufactured by Serv-O-Droid. Zee-Zee was first placed in service to one of the Deans of the Spacers Academy. He was willed to the next 17 deans, and picked up quite a large body of embarrassing trivia on all of them. One of the Deans was Horace Wyrmyr, who didn't particularly like droids. Zee-Zee later provided Mako Spince with the codes to the physics lab from which he stole the antimatter he used to destroy the Academy's mascot moon. Wyrmyr, upon learning that Zee-Zee had leaked his secret codes, ordered the droid recycled. After he was expelled, Mako recovered Zee-Zee, but he eventually lost the droid to Han Solo in a sabacc game. Han didn't know what to do with the droid, but kept it as a way of keeping his small apartment clean. ZeeZee was a bit eccentric, and basically did exactly what Han told her to do. When he left Nar Shaddaa after winning the Millennium Falcon from Lando Calrissian, Han asked Zee-Zee to keep the place as it was when he left. The old droid did exactly that for many years, not allowing one, single, misplaced item to be returned to its proper place. Nothing was cleaned up, but was left as it was when Han left.

1.4 FD P-Tower  
one of Atgar's inexpensive anti-vehicle weapons, the P-Tower was considered outdated duringf the era of the New Order. This didn't deter the Alliance from using a number of these to help guard Echo Base on Hoth. They hoped that shear numbers of the readily-available implements would help defend the base. The P-Tower was essentially a turret-mounted laser dish, with sixteen micropower routers located around the outer edge. Once charged, these routers channeled all their energy into the main cannon, which then fired a huge blast of coherent energy. The main problem with the P-Tower was the fact that the sixteen routers drew incredible amounts of power from the batteries used to supply it. Each C-6 battery was only capable of handling eight shouts before it was drained. Atgar compensated for this by making the C-6 battery easy to replace. The challenge then became ensuring that enough batteries were available on the battlefield. (RPG, NEGW)

12-4C-41  
this SoroSuub droid worked on Cloud City as part of Lando Calrissian's automated support structure. 12-4C-41 served as a traffic controller. This droid was one of the few that survived EV-9D9's near-destruction of Cloud City, for she had dismembered a number of them during her rampage. 12-4C-41 managed to discover EV-9D9's data trail out of Cloud City, and spent the next few years tracking her down. He found her in Jabba the Hutt's palace, and quickly incapacitated her with four blaster shots. He then removed her abherrent third optic sensor and her pain-simulator button, depriving EV-9D9 of the sensations of death. He called it "balancing the equation," reminding her that she had disabled many of the 12-series droids on Cloud City. He freed all of EV-9D9's tortured droids, and together they slowly dismantled her until she no longer functioned. (TJP)

13-K  
this was the designation of a specially-modified probe droid, launched by Imperial Admiral Damon Krell, shortyl after the Battle of Hoth. 13-K located a stray Alliance corvette and attacked it, killing all aboard. 13-K then took control of the corvette and set out for Alliance-held territory using the coordinates it found in the ship's computers. One of the ships it encountered on its mission was the X-Wing of Luke Skywwlker, which 13-K destroyed. Luke and R2-D2 managed to eject in time to avoid the explosion, and were able to infiltrate the corvette. Once 13-K realized that the rebel who was trying to defeat it was Luke Skywalker himself, it abandoned its primary mission of destroying an Alliance fleet and headed back toward Imperial space, hoping to deliver Skywalker to Darth Vader himself. 13-K reached Admiral Krell's vessel just as the main reactor in the corvette reached critical levels and exploded, destroying 13-K, the corvette, Krell's ship and all hands aboard.

one of Teradoc's Victory-class Star Destroyers, the 13X was under the command of Vice Admiral Pellaeon. When Admiral Daala executed Teradoc and the other warlords, the 13X was placed under the command of Colonel Cronus, who took it as his command ship. The 13X led Daala's fleet of Victory-class ships on a galaxy-wide rampage before rejoining her fleet at the assault on Yavin 4. During the battle, a New Republic Corellian gunship, grievously wounded in battle, rammed the 13X and destroyed it. (DS)

Along with SH?1-B, 1e-XE were useful in bringing Boba Fett back to life after the bounty hunter escaped from the Sarlacc's belly. 1e-XE was a white-banded droid with a very minimalist outlook. It never spoke in more than two- or three-word phrases, and often simply used a single word to express its current state of mind. When Fett was nearly healed, following the attempt by Kuat of Kuat to eliminate him, the droids were left behind as the bounty hunters fled the planet. (MA)
1-H  
the designation of Ubrikkian's heavy Imperial-class repulsortank. Measuring 20.5 meters in length, the 1-H had the toughest armor and heaviest weaponry of all the repulsortanks. The 1-H required a crew of five, and was armed with a Mark 4e/S heavy laser cannon and a medium blaster cannon. (SWJ9)

The 210 personal armor package is illegal on most worlds. (GG9)
2112  
Zeth Durron's stormtrooper identification number on Carida. (COTF)
2-124  
this Uulshos Justice Droid was one of several assassin droids programmed for use by the Empire. 2-124 was captured by agents of the Alliance, and his memory banks were probed to determine the nature of its programming. Before the droid could be disassembled, 2-124 escaped, killing more than 20 Alliance soldiers. These actions were not prohibited to 2-124, since its original assassin programs were never wiped by the Alliance. 2-124 then disappeared, coming out only to kill selected members of the Alliance. After the Battle of Endor, 2-124 disappeared again, although it is believed that the droid became intelligent enough to reprogram itself to target New Republic personnel. (WBC)

2-1B (Two-Onebee)  
this was the designation of a series of humanoid medical droids built by Geentech and Industrial Automaton in a joint effort. They are simply-constructed droids with incredible perception and talent, having performed flawlessly for decades during the last years of the Old Republic through the era of the New Republic. They can also be modified to perform precise technical procedures as well, such as neurosurgery or optometry. These droids could be updated with a variety of appendages and programming, but only at an approved service center. This ensured that the droid was properly suited to perform its new duties, just as a surgery had to be trained and certified. A certain 2-1B droid in the service of Lord Cuvir was part of the inspection team that went to Wor Tandell. When Tiree attacked and killed Cuvir, 2-1B decided to return with Tiree and join the Alliance. 2-1B was eventually assigned to the Alliance's Echo Base on Hoth, and served as the base's primary medical droid. It was 2-1B, with assistance from FX-7, that treated Luke Skywalker after he was assaulted by the Wampa ice creature. Following the evacuation of Echo Base after the Battle of Hoth, 2-1B was on the Bright Hope when it was disabled by the combined fire of the Mist Hunter and an Imperial-class Star Destroyer. 2-1B helped treat the wounded aboard the ship before being rescued by Zuckuss and 4-LOM. After this, 2-1B continued to serve the Alliance, and even helped attach Luke Skywalker's prosthetic hand after the real one was lost in a lightsaber duel with Darth Vader on Cloud City. The 2-1B droid that helped Luke recover from exposure to the harsh environment of Hoth was voiced by Russel Horton for the The Empire Strikes Back Radio Drama on National Public Radio.

222  
this was the model number of Ubrikkian Transports' heavy fishing trawler was originally produced more than 500 years before the Galactic Civil War, although they were so durable and reliable that many remained in service through the era of the New Order. The more modern versions used repulsorlifts for propulsion, although early versions employed repulsorsails. Measuring 170 meters in length, the 222 trawler was supported by a pair of huge pontoons, upon which sat the various decks and processing facilities. These vessels were designed to be easy to handle, and could be operated by a single pilot and a pair of engineers. Up to 300 sailors and deckhands could be accommodated aboard the 222 trawler, which could transport up to 800 metric tons of cargo. Many of these vessels were later armed by their owners, to discourage pirates and other scavengers from trying to steal their cargo. (GMR7)

22K97(MD)  
this was the form used by Old Republic medical personnel to requisition the supplies and technology they needed to do their jobs. The use of a 22K97(MD) form became something of a joke during the height of the Clone Wars, since there were too many battlefronts that needed supplies that simply couldn't be produced fast enough. (MBS)
22T4  
an Imperial Arms hold-out blaster, the 22T4 was rigorously tested before being supplied to Imperial Security Bureau agents as a personal sidearm. Note that the Arms and Equipment Guide indicates that the 22T4 was built by Imperial Munitions. No civilian models of the 22T4 were built, and every blaster produced had a specially-coded serial number placed on the actuating module to prevent tampering. (GG9, AEG)

(EL1)
27th Denarian Fleet  
this Old Republic Navy fleet was one of the first to be overhauled under the auspices of the New Order. Palpatine ordered some 250 Victory-class Star Destroyers decommissioned to make way for the new Imperial-class Star Destroyers. The Victories were stripped of weaponry and sold at auction to raise money for the Imperial war machine. The Corporate Sector Authority won the property rights to a majority of the Victories, which they re-outfitted and placed at the forefront of their own fleet. (CSA)
27th Hour Social Club  
located in Margath's on Elshandruu Pica, this is the place to visit on the planet. It attracts beings from all walks of life, from successful businesspeople to used-droid salesmen. A minimum of 150 beings populate the club 27 hours a day - which is amazing given that Elshandruu Pica's day only lasts 26 hours, thus the club's name. Live music is always performed there. One of the most popular bands to play the club is Deeply Religious, although they often perform in disguise. (GG9)

2JTJ  
this silver, personal navigation droid was given to Tahl by Jedi Master Yoda, after Tahl's eyesight was lost in a struggle with the Melida. The droid was given as a gift, to help Tahl adjust to life without sight. She quickly found the droid to be extremely annoying and utterly uncaring about its job. Known as TooJay, the droid continually called Tahl "sir" despite the fact that she was female, and tried to correct her every move. TooJay was given a female personality, in order to help Tahl feel more at ease with the droid. This nice touch was often overcome by TooJay's nagging behavior. It was soon discovered that Xanatos had placed a recording and monitoring device within 2JTJ's plating, and used the device to monitor the Jedi's actions during his attempts to steal the Healing Crystals of Fire and a cache of vertex. Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi arranged to have 2J record a false conversation, in an effort to lure Xanatos to them. The plan nearly succeeded, but Xanatos managed to escape. (UP, CT)
2LC/Blue  
this Imperial Bavos-I defense platform was located near Esseles during the height of the Galactic Civil War. While providing the defensive capabilities necessary to protect Esseles and its system, 2LC/Blue suffered from the lack of storage that plagued the Bavos-I platform.

327th Star Corps  
this was the name given to the team of elite clone troopers led by Commander Bly, during the final stages of the Clone Wars. The nickname of the unit came from the fact that they were stationed in the Outer Rim, moving from system to system and never seeing Coruscant. Originally formed to participate in the Battle of Geonosis, the 327th Star Corps was part of the 2nd Sector Army, and saw action on New Holstice, Honoghr, Anzat, and Dromund Kaas before being to Felucia. The unit's use of jetpacks earned them the reputation of being the GAR's pre-eminent rocket trooper unit. Under the command of Jedi Master Aayla Secura, the mission to Felucia was to capture Shu Mai and the leaders of the Commerce Guild. However, the Gossam and her entourage had already been moved to Mustafar, as part of the lrger plot by Darth Sidious.

this small, spherical droid was designed on Jazbina to be a reporter. Much of its body was dedicated to a huge holocam recorder, and the rest was used to house a small repulsor engine which allowed 3DVO to float around. Three smaller recording devices surrounded the large central camera, and a communications array poked from the upper part of its body. It was assigned by Prepredenko to record Luke Skywalker's efforts to rescue his daughter, Syayna. Unknown to 3DVO, Prepredenko installed a small dart launcher in place of one of its sensors. After Luke used 3DVO's repulsors to avoid being eaten by a tikulini worm, he found Syayna and her resistance cell. Prepredenko activated the dart launcher, shooting Luke with a tranquilizer to incapacitate him while soldiers captured the rebels. 3DVO got a measure of revenge when he reported Darth Vader's arrival on Jazbina to Prepredenko. 3DVO told the ruler that Vader wanted Luke dead, instead of alive, hoping that Vader would kill Prepredenko for disoberying his orders. The plan worked, but 3DVO felt a twinge of remorse. The droid agreed to help Prepredenko get a message to Syayna, but the transmission was discovered by the Imperials. Stormtroopers arrived and shot Prepredenko and 3DVO, but not before the droid displayed the executions on public viewscreens. (VQ)

this series of bipedal droids was used in construction to repair damaged vehicles and buildings. The Alliance reused these droids on the battlefield, reprogramming them to assist in the repair of military vehicles and structures. (FC)
47-D  
this was the codename of the programming stored in the brain of TC-11 by Gode Takrab. If activated, subroutine 47-D would have transmitted a set of forged documents to the primary Trade Federation starship. The documents would have appeared to have been from Queen Amidala, legitimizing the Federation's invasion of Naboo. (SON)
48 Roller  
this unusual vehicle was designed for a single being to operate. Resembling a large wheel, the 48 Roller used a huge tire to move itself along. A pair of small jet engines, mounted near the base of the vehicle and perfectly balanced, provided propulsion. The rider sat inside the main wheel, and controlled the vehicle with a combination of handbars and their own balance. Speed, braking, and hard turns were accomplished using the built-in controls, but many turns could be accomplished by simply leaning into them. (BTRKS29)

4B-X  
this research droid was part of the Alliance's droid pool at the Massassi Base on Yavin 4, shortly before the Battle of Yavin. After the destruction of the first Death Star, 4B-X was assigned to the crew that escorted Trux Zissu to Delantine. 4B-X was a short, barrel-shaped automaton with a large datascreen for a head and a feminine personality. 4B-X was the latest model of her series, and was designed to operate in nearly any environment. Instead of feet, 4B-X had four long legs that ended with tractor-wheels which could be retracted if necessary. (SA1)

this is the designation of the New Republic Navy's Central Computer Operating Signal Division, used in emergency situations to reprogram droids or other automated systems in the event of organic loss of life. (POT)
4D  
this was the name of the receptionist droid who served Airen Cracken during the early days of the Alliance. (GMK)
4-D  
this automated construct was used by the bounty hunter Mala to move about. 4-D had two multi-jointed legs and four articulated arms, and its spherical head contained a fairly sophisticated brain. This allowed 4-D to be somewhat independent of Mala, allowing her to focus her concentration elsewhere. 4-D was also armed with several blaster and melee weapons, and would defend Mala to the death. 4-D was forced to sacrifice itself in order to save Mala, when she discovered that Luke Skywalker had destroyed the first Death Star. Darth Vader had hunted down all the beings who knew of Luke's deeds, and Mala tried to escape. She and 4-D had to jump for their lives, and although they went down firing, 4-D was crushed upon impact. Mala barely survived, with the assistance of another of her droids, B-6. (VQ)
4D668493X  
this incredibly dangerous, predatory creature was "manufactured" in an Imperial laboratory during the height of the New Order. Subject 4D669493X was a pale-skinned creature that was roughly humanoid in shape, but with long, muscular limbs and a whiplike tail. Its dorsal spine was protected by thick ridges, and its mouth was studded with fangs and needle-like teeth. Its heavy claws allowed it to climb buildings, and the dagger-like bone at the tip of its tail could impale a human quickly and cleanly. The Empire lost control of Subject 4D668493X when it escaped from its laboratory. A bounty was posted for its capture, although it was believed that the creature stowed away on a ship bound for Tatooine. (GMR6)
4HX4  
this highly-explosive land mine was developed by the Imperial Remnant during the years leading up to the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. (FH3)

4-KT  
this skeletal droid was originally manufactured as a medical assistant. After being acquired by QS-2D, though, 4-KT was reprogrammed to work as a droid developer and an assistant to Q-8Y5. 4-KT enjoyed its work, and sometimes was so single-minded in its pursuit of a solution that it completely drained its power cells and had to be manually recharged. (LFC)
4L4  
another Incom fusial thrust engine used on X-Wings. (SWSB)
4-LB  
this large, square labor droid ran a power station in Mos Eisley. 4-LB lived on the old Lank settlement, and confused Adar Tallon with Bels Lank. Thus, he was approached by the bounty hunter IG-72 during the hunt for Tallon. 4-LB provided information on Lank's whereabouts, thinking that IG-72 was describing him. IG-72 then disintegrated the labor droid. (TM)
4-LOM  
a rogue droid bounty hunter conscripted by Darth Vader to find the Millennium Falcon, it was one of the first LOM-series protocol droids ever prodcued. 4-LOM was purchased for service as an interpreter on the Kuari Princess. He was equipped with a TranLang III communications module so that he could interface between the ship's guests and its computer. Because both 4-LOM and the ship's computer knew the exact locations of the passengers' valuables, they began simulating the "perfect theft." However, both of them soon began to discover how to alter the other's programming, and a series of thefts began to be reported aboard the Princess. One of the first such thefts was that of the Ankarres Sapphire, stolen from Dom Pricina. 4-LOM initially took the stone to protect it from Dom Pricina's careless handling of the stone. However, 4-LOM realized that most humans were careless as Dom Pricina had been, and taking the stone opened up new programming routines to 4-LOM. The continued interaction between 4-LOM and the ship's computer enhanced and widened the droid's own sentience, and 4-LOM began to grow bored of the simple thefts. 4-LOM left the ship when it t made port, and began working as an information broker and master thief. He worked for Jabba the Hutt for a while, and the Hutt eventually made 4-LOM a deal it couldn't refuse: in return for a complete refit that would allow the droid to perform violent actions, 4-LOM would agree to become one of Jabba's personal bounty hunters. Jabba paired 4-LOM with Zuckuss, and the two became Jabba's favorite hunters. 4-LOM became obsessed with learning how to use intuition, and studied Zuckuss during the Gand's mediations. 4-LOM even thought about trying to understand the Force. When Vader put out the bounty on Han Solo's head, Jabba sent the two to the Executor as unofficial emissaries to the Empire. Note that, although The Essential Guide to Characters indicates Jabba sent them, Tales of the Bounty Hunters tells that the two sought out Vader after Zuckuss discovered the bounty during a meditative trance. The droid and the Gand never got involved with the hunt for Solo, as they discovered that the Alliance would help them more than the Empire. They eventually joined the Alliance, after saving the crew of the Bright Hope near Hoth. While waiting for Zuckuss' lungs to heal, 4-LOM had a form of prescient insight, and thought he saw himself working with a group of Jedi trainees. Once Zuckuss' lungs healed, the pair left to intercept Boba Fett and recover Solo. Even though Boba Fett was the one to capture Solo, the other bounty hunters tracked Fett to try and bargain with him. Led by Bossk, 4-LOM and the others intercepted Fett at Gall. Fett managed to escape, but 4-LOM was disabled and left in the hold of Slave I. When 4-LOM reactivated itself, it signaled the others to give them Fett's location. However, Fett discovered the transmission and shot 4-LOM through the head. Fett then used the inert droid as a stand-in for Han Solo's frozen form, and he used Zuckuss for a stand-in of himself. Fett sent them out of Slave I on Tatooine, to draw off any of Jabba's minions who would have stolen Solo's body and claimed the bounty themselves. Zuckuss later managed to get 4-LOM repaired, but the memory wipe required to reactivate its droid brain left 4-LOM without any semblance of its former personality. Both Zuckuss and 4-LOM chose to cut off their relationship with the Alliance. The droid no longer felt that it needed a partner, although it chose to work with Zuckuss during the capture of Drawmas Sma'da because it needed a partner to carry out the capture. Note that the Essential Guide to Characters indicates that Jabba retained the services of 4-LOM and Zuckuss until his own death, despite the destruction of the droid in Shadows of the Empire. K-3PO was portrayed by Chris Parsons in Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back. (ESB, EGC, SE, SEC, TBH, HM, EGD, SWI74)

this was one of the chrome-plated droids used by Captain Swagg, during his attempt to steal the relics from the Gungan Sacred Place. 4-S, along with 3-S and 5-S, was assigned by Swagg to destroy the arena in Lake Umberbool, but the attempt was thwarted by Jar Jar Binks and Major Fassa. 4-S was destroyed in the attempt, although the Gungans managed to recover 4-S's head and use it against Swagg. (E1A12)
4S0S  
according to a HoloNet comic that appeared sometime during the height of the New Order, 4S0S was one of the many droids sold to the moisture farmers of the Dura Mater settlement, on the planet Tatooine. Like all of the droids sold by these Jawas, 4S0S exploded just before its warranty expired, forcing its owner to purchase a new droid from the Jawas. (T20)

500  
this was BlasTech's version of the riot gun, produced for use by the Corporate Sector Authority during the early years of the New Order. A short-barreled rifle with an open-frame stock, the BlasTech 500 was designed to be powerful, but not necessarily accurate. Developed to help CSA Security officers control large mobs, the 500 came to epitomize "Corporate Sector logic" in the minds of many beings: when in doubt, shoot into a crowd. (GUN, AEG, WOTC)
500 Republica  
this immense building was built in the Ambassadorial Sector of the Senate District of Galactic City, on the planet Coruscant, and provided dwellings for some of the galaxy's wealthiest beings. Many of the Senators of the Old Republic maintained residences in this building, including former Senator Palpatine, primarily because it offered complete privacy for its residents. Fifty-three individual skydocks were located around the building's faηade providing, restricted access to residents and their guests. Hundreds of private turbolifts could be found within its walls, and security cameras and hidden weaponry guarded every doorway and entrance to ensure that the building's inhabitants were safe at all times. The fact that 500 Republica was such an opulent and immense building, especially when compared to the Senate Rotunda, served as a symbol of the Senators' disproportionate wealth and their corruption, especially to the members of the lower classes of Coruscant. (IWE1, LEV)
500-X  
this was a model of out-dated shipboard NavCom unit. (JS)
501st Legion  
this group of blue-colored clone troopers was specially raised and trained on Coruscant - rather than on Kamino - during the height of the Clone Wars. When Anakin Skywalker pledged himself to Darth Sidious and was named Darth Vader, he was given command of the 501st, which he took to the Jedi Temple. At the Temple, Vader and his clone troopers slaughtered every Jedi Padawan, Knight, and Master they could find. After the establishment of the Empire, the 501st became known as the Imperial 501st Legion, although it still continued to take orders from Darth Vader. (VD3, SWDB, SWI84)
501-Z  
this was the designation of SoroSuub's police droid, produced during the early years of the New Order. Known as a Zed, the 501-Z droid stood nearly two meters in height, and resembled heavily-muscled humanoids. These droids were given computer brains and personality matricies that were as advanced as most protocol droids, allowing the 501-Z to interact with organic police officers and "get into the mind" of a criminal. The average 501-Z was painted crimson, and was armed with only a stun staff or force pike. (EGD, AEG, WOTC)

The 5T was equipped with six digging arms and a pair of weeding arms, and had a variety of edging and cutting attachments. The droid's body contained canisters that contained purified water and fertilizers, and a spraying hose was used to deliver the right mix to the trees it worked on. (EGD)
5YQ-series Droid  
this series of protocol droids was developed by Cybot Galactica from the basic 3PO-series model, with modifications to the cognitive module units that gave the 5YQ a greater empathy for organic beings. Much of its design came from the Orbot series, which led to litigation being filed against Cybot Galactica by Serv-O-Droid. The 5YQ-series was eventually discontinued, but many models remained active for decades during the last century of the Old Republic. (MBS)

8t88  
this lowly 88-series calculation droid learned to covet credits while acting as an accountant for the Woostri HoloScan Database. Roughly humanoid in shape, 8t88 was a spindly automaton which was given arms and a crocodilian head that resembled the those of its Tiss'sharl master. However, during a mission to Woostri, 8t88's head was stolen by Zokor Polpot and replaced with that of a JMM-series assassin droid. 8t88 was unable to reconcile its new situation, and began to consider this "disfigurement" as an act of prejudice against droids. It was then that 8t88 became obsessed with finding and hurting Polpot, and set to work locating any and all information on his whereabouts. This activity eventually led 8t88 to discover bartering, as many sources of information wanted better information in return. Thus, 8t88 became one of the New Order's most successful infochants, and gained a fortune in credits. After outbidding Balancesheet, 8t88 was hired by Jerec to obtain the location of the Valley of the Jedi from Morgan Katarn. The droid managed to steal Morgan's journal disk, which led Jerec to Sulon and the ceiling tiles Katarn's home, which formed a puzzle that was used to hide the Valley's location. However, for its part in the search for the Valley of the Jedi, 8t88 was beheaded by Gorc and Pic aboard the Sulon Star. Kyle Katarn, the son of Morgan Katarn, managed to recover the droid's head and learned for himself of the location of the Valley. 8t88's body managed to survive the second beheading, and the droid continued to wander the galaxy in search of a suitable replacement. After many such heads, 8t88 managed to secure the head of an EV-series droid shortly before traveling to Mawan. The droid's appearance on Mawan coincided with a fatal accident that took the life of Zokor Polpot, and 8t88 suddenly found itself on the galaxy's most-wanted lists. (DF2, EGD, SWMW)
