Chuff, Palleus
this man considered himself to have been the greatest actor on the planet Coruscant during the height of the Clone Wars, at least the greatest actor under a meter in height. A diminutive man, Chuff made a fortune playing Jedi Master Yoda in the regular serial Jedi!, of which he was the original writer. The TriNebulon News gave his performance as Yoda a four-star review, claiming that "the Force was with him." Palleus was most proud of his ability to mimic the wry smiles of the tiny Jedi Master, and he named many of them based on the emotion he was trying to evoke: the Gleeful Cackle, the Sleepy Grin, the Slow Almost Menacing Smirk, the Merry Havoc, the Gentle Joy, and the Knowing Yoda Smile were all part of his repertoire. Perhaps his greatest performance came some thirty months after the Battle of Geonosis, when the real Yoda was planning to make a trip to Vjun to negotiate a peace treaty with Count Dooku. Yoda didn't want the main mission to be compromised, so Palleus was hired to play Yoda in real life. He was dispatched in a convoy to Ithor, where he was ambushed by Asajj Ventress. Although Ventress destroyed most of the ships in convoy, she captured "Yoda" alive and allowed the Ithorians to transmit images of the ambush back to Coruscant. When she realized that "Yoda" was a fake, Ventress became angry, but chose not to kill Palleus outright. She took him to Phindar, where she hoped to capture the real Yoda. At the Phindar Spaceport, Palleus found himself fighting alongside Yoda himself. In order to create a diversion, Chuff set the Last Call to self-destruct. The problem was that the explosion of the ship cut off many escape routes for the surviving Jedi, and Yoda was forced to drag Palleus along on a search for an alternate route. (YDR)

Chugg
this immense Reigat was employed as the chief of security at The Pits, working for Kaylo NaKuda. A former racer for Team NaKuda, he suffered a severe set of injuries in a race and was "a few gems short of a lightsaber," in the words of NaKuda. Despite the injuries, Chugg remained loyal to NaKuda, and traveled to Stend VI to serve as NaKuda's bodyguard. The security job soon followed, after Blizz Pinnix witnessed his loyalty to NaKuda. (WSV)

Chugger's Chaw
this was a brand of chewing tobacco that was popular during the last years of the Old Republic. Users of Chugger's Chaw were distinguished by the thick, green spit they ejected every so often, as the tobacco reacted with the user's saliva. (YDR)

Chuhkyvi
this was the native language of the Chuhkyvi race of Iskalonians. (GMR1)

Chuhkyvi
this species of Iskalonian was native to the planet Aquaris. These humanoids were similar to the Inleshat, but had tan or yellowish skin and four fingers on each hand. Of all the Iskalonian races, only the Chuhkyvi had a desire to leave Iskalon and travel across the galaxy. They were also a spiritual people, and were not afraid to defend a cause that they believed to be right. (EGA, GMR1)

Chuk'a
this large, mollusk-like worm was bio-engineered by the Yuuzhan Vong as a waste processor. It dug through all sorts of materials, including metal and stone, with a hard, shell-like cap that contained several pincers. The chuk'a then move through rock and other material, grinding up anything it encountered and consuming it. The chuk'a then digested the material and exuded a recycled form of matter that could be used to construct buildings and structures. The looping tunnels formed as the chuk'a passed were then used to connect underground chambers. When the chuk'a was not needed, it was commanded to simply go to sleep. This sleep was very deep, and required a complex set of stimulations to rouse the chuk'a again. It was considered very dangerous to awaken a sleeping chuk'a. A number of these creatures were set loose on Coruscant, after the Yuuzhan Vong began to transform the city-world into a simulacrum of their long-lost homeworld of Yuuzhan'tar, to help destroy the deepest layers of construction below the planet's surface. (FH1)

Chukha-Trok
this was a common name for Ewok males. Like other Ewok names, it referred to a spirit or character in the Ewoks' mythology. (GCG)

Chukha-Trok
according to Ewok legend, this hunter was born of an Ewok and a forest spirit. (GCG)

Chukha-Trok
this male Ewok was a woodsman about whom many stories and songs were written during the last years of the Old Republic. He lived alone in the forests of Endor, until the Towani family's starship crashed on Endor. When Mace and Cindel went to rescue their parents, Lorgay gave them an ancient ivory tooth. When Mace encountered Chukha-Trok, he could not understand why Chukha-Trok wouldn't join their expedition. He challenged Chukha-Trok to a contest of skill in throwing axes, which Chukha-Trok won. After that, he and Mace became friends. When Deej produced the ivory tooth, they discovered that it fit an ancient jawbone worn bu Chukha-Trok, who understood that he was needed on the mission. Unfortunately, Chukha-Trok was killed in the battle with the Gorax. (EA, SWDB)

Chu'la

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

Chun
this was one of the most common human surnames encountered in the galaxy. (GCG)

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

Chun, Kad
this young man was the older brother of Bruck Chun, and was the only son of Vox Chun after Bruck was accidentally killed at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. After Bruck's death, Kad stood by his father's side during the inquest into the events of Bruck's demise. He confronted Obi-Wan Kenobi, railing at the young Padawan and refusing to forgive him for Bruck's death. Upon returning to Telos, Kad began to work toward rebuilding his homeworld, but was unable to bring about any real change. Instead, he changed his name to Uni and set out with a group of followers aboard the BioCruiser to start a new life. Later, when it was revealed that Vox Chun was behind the planned sabotage of the ship as part of the Broken Circle plan, Kad was forced to face his father's treachery head-on. When Vox was fatally shot by Kern, Kad put his anger aside and forgave his father before he died. He then set the record straight with Obi-Wan, and worked to repair their relationship. (JAD)

Chun, Vox
this man was Bruck Chun's father. Vox served as the Treasurer of the planet Telos during the time his son was at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Vox was also on Xanatos' payroll, and helped the former Jedi rise to power on Telos. After learning from Xanatos that Bruck had died on Coruscant, Vox wholly supported Xanatos' plans to implement the Galactic Criminals Act. Vox was unaware of how Xanatos had twisted the truth to his own ends, however. In the end, after Xanatos was exposed as a fraud and defeated, Chun was thrown in jail for his part in the bankrolling of UniFy and Katharsis. However, he was pardoned for his crimes just a year later, and set out to discredit the Jedi by exposing them as the cause of Bruck's death. Despite the efforts of his friend, Sano Sauro, Obi-Wan Kenobi was acquitted of any wrongdoing in Bruck's death. Vox left Coruscant angry, claiming that the Senate was being controlled by the Jedi Knights. In the followng years, Vox devoted his time to working with his surviving son, Kad, aboard the BioCruiser. His work was another cover, though, as Vox had been secretly conspiring with the remnants of Offworld Mining to steal the treasury of the BioCruiser in an effort to buy himself more power. When the plans were revealed, Vox tried to escape, but Kern - who was actually Tarrance Chenati - shot him. As Vox died, his surviving son Kad forgave him. (DOR, JAD)

this was a noted gang that was active on the planet Talus during the Galactic Civil War. (GQRG)

Ch'unkk
this Whiphid Spearmaster was a member of the Imperial Interim Ruling Council. Ch'unkk often had a protocol droid with him, for translation purposes. His presence on the council was instrumental in keeping the Whiphid population allied with the remnants of the Empire. He was a member of the inner clique formed by Norym Kim and Mahd Windcaller, and was quick to second the nomination of Xandel Carivus to lead the Council, in the aftermath of Nolyds' assassination. However, when Carivus ordered the arrest of all non-human members of the Council after General Immodet was found poisoned, Ch'unkk resisted and was shot to death for his actions. (CE2)

Churabba
this ancient Hutt had a cunning business mind, and was in control of the Si'Klaata Cluster some 4,000 years before the Galactic Civil War. She was there when the Cult of M'dweshuu once again rose to power on Kintan. It was believed that she admired the Cult for its ability to galvanize the Nikto race, even as she sought to destroy it to gain control of the Nikto race. She ordered that the Cult's main headquarters be bombarded, killing off many of the Cult's leaders and leaving the Nikto people without a strong leadership. The Nikto then signed their support over to her. (GG12)

Church of Infinite Perception
this quasi-religious organization grew out of the tight control exercised on the planet Pergitor after extensive mining resulted in volcanic eruptions. The eruptions spewed toxic chemicals into the atmosphere, permanently poisoning it. Travel was restricted to and from Pergitor by the ruling class, and trade was similarly restricted. The youth of the planet began to rebel, and when young members of the aristocracy became involved, the movement started to gain strength. Under the guidance of the Preceptor, the youths of the Church fought against the government for fifteen years before finally overthrowing the government and establishing an authoritarian theocracy. The final, bloody coup occurred just before the onset of the Clone Wars, as the Church finally defeated the young government. Rumors abound that the Church and its victory over the former government was masterminded by Emperor Palpatine. The Church maintains a tight grip on the planet's people, and established a set of rigid laws. (GG6, HNN4)

Church of the Dark Side
this was the name used by Sate Pestage to describe the quasi-religion which sprang up around the Prophets of the Dark Side, during the years which followed the Battle of Endor. The Prophets of the Dark Side chose to ignore the Church, which it considered nothing more than a mockery of their order. (SWI66, WOTC)

Church of the First Frequency
this religious sect was formed on Otranto. They were ousted from the planet by the Imperial Grand Inquisitor Torbin, but its surviving members rallied around their beliefs. They attacked Torbin's palace, and he was only saved by the timely intervention of the Tynnan Odumin. However, Torbin was killed a month later on Weerden. (CSA)

Church of Toydaria
this religious institution was formed on Coruscant during the last years of the Old Republic. Members of the church tried to appeal to prospective members by admitting that there were not absolutes in life, and the religion was founded on the pursuit of answers to life's most difficult questions. (HNN5)

Churhee, Maydla
this woman was the widow of Vlaydm Churhee, and took command of Churhee's Riflemen in the wake of Vlaydm's death.

Measuring an average of 440 meters in length, the Chuun M'arh was crewed by 225 dedicated Yuuzhan Vong warriors, and could accommodate up to 370 troops and 980 metric tons of cargo or ordnance. These ships were armed with thirty plasma weapons and a host of dovin basals, but they were not equipped with interdiction bio-technology. (NJOSB)

Chuundar
this black-furred Wookiee was the leader of the city of Rwookrrorro, on his homeworld of Kashyyyk, during the height of the Great Sith War. He was somewhat unusual in that he working to gain power by whatever means he could, rather than employing more traditional Wookiee ways. He also had little regard for honor, and used fear and threats to remain unchallenged in his leadership position. Many of his contemporaries, as well as future Wookiee historians, blamed his disregard for traditional values for Czerka Corporation's ability to establish bases on Kashyyyk. This, in turn, led to the first widespread use of Wookiees as slave labor. In truth, it was Chuundar who sold the Wookiee people into slaver, in exchange for a high-ranking position with Czerka's organization on the planet. When his brother, Zaalbar, learned of his treachery, Chuundar found himself being challenged. He refused to back down, and even betrayed their father, Freyyr, by calling him a senile old fool and turning his people against him. Zaalbar became angry and lashed out at Chuundar with his climbing claws, and action that was forbidden among the Wookiees in combat. Zaalbar was branded a "madclaw" and exiled from Kashyyyk, cementing Chuundar's position of power on Kashyyyk. He remained above his fellow Wookiees for many years, until Zaalbar returned from the Great Sith War and confronted his brother once again. This time, though, Zaalbar managed to defeat Chuundar and remove him from power. (KOTOR, SWDB)

Chu'unthor
this Cerean word translated into Basic as "academy". (PJSB)

Chu'unthor
this ship, owned by the Jedi Master Djinn Altis, was named in honor of the ancient training ship which was lost on Dathomir. Like the ancient ship, the new Chu'unthor was used as a training facility, where Master Altis could train he Padawan learners without interruption from the Jedi Council. (NEGC)

Chu'unthor
this ancient Republic Fleet Systems cruiser was huge, at nearly two kilometers in length and forty meters in height, and was constructed in orbit around the planet Abhean more than 400 years before the onset of the Clone Wars. The Chu'unthor, named for the Cerean word meaning "academy", was the brainchild of Fin-So-Rowan, Ivixa Delbaeth, and a number of other forward-thinking Jedi Masters. It was designed to serve as a sort of mobile space station used by the ancient Jedi Knights, and was the primary ship in the Exploration Corps of the ancient Jedi. It provided ample space for 10,000 Jedi, along with hundreds of exercise rooms, training areas and medical facilities. The ship was shaped like an arrow, with ots training facilities located in the wings. Medical facilities were locate in the main fuselage, just behind the command center, while classrooms were located at the front of the ship. The Chu'unthor was basically unarmed, having just eight tractor beam projectors in its "arsenal". The ship's cargo capacity was rated as 40,000 metric tons, and it was propeled through space by a huge array of hyperdrive engines. It could be dispatched to anywhere in the galaxy to help resolve conflicts, and it was hoped that the success of the Chu'unthor would keep the Jedi Order from stagnating by visiting new worlds with new ideas. Many of its corridors and training centers had clear, transparisteel covers that allowed the Jedi to have a full view of the galaxy. The Chu'unthor served faithfully for many decades, but plans for additional ships never came to fruition. Just after passing 100 years of service, the Chu'unthor was dispatched to the planet Dathomir, where the Jedi were in battle with the Force-wielding Nightsisters. During the fighting, the ship took heavy damage, and was forced to crash-land in the swamps. After a truce was formed between the two sides, the Chu'unthor - which held a good deal of Jedi lore and teachings - was abandoned by the Jedi, who left the planet. One of the creators of the truce, the Jedi Master Yoda, asked that the ship be left alone until a young Jedi came to free the planet from the Nightsisters. Three hundred years later, Luke Skywalker fulfilled this prophecy. (CPL, EGV, WOTC, PJSB, GORW)

Cilghal
a female Mon Calamari Ambassador to the New Republic, she is found to have a good deal of sensitivity to The Force. She joined Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy, and became a Jedi healer. Her ties to her uncle, Admiral Ackbar, and her outstanding service to the Mon Calamari people eventually led her into politics, and she became Calamari's Senator to the New Republic. When the Diversity Alliance rose to power, Cilghal suggested that the New Republic send a delegation to Ryloth to determine what they were trying to do. This came on the heels of the testimony of several of Skywalker's young Jedi students, who had been imprisoned by the Diversity Alliance against their will. Later, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Cilghal returned to the Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4 and took Tekli on as an apprentice. During this time, Cilghal discovered that the fear of further invasion, coupled with the knowledge that the New Republic was nearly powerless to stop the aliens, was creating a great deal of stress illness throughout the galaxy. Cilghal found a calling, shortly after the Battle of Duro, in helping Mara Jade Skywalker survive her pregnancy. She traveled with the Skywalkers to the Errant Venture, after Borsk Fey'lya ordered the arrest of Luke Skywalker, and discovered that the synthetic tears Mara had been using to arrest her Yuuzhan Vong-induced disease had been building up other toxins in her system. All of Mara's immunities had been shunted to the protection of her unborn child, but the resulting toxic shock syndrome threatened the child's life. Cilghal and Luke used the strength of the Force to keep Mara alive, and Luke's desparate actions ultimately saved Mara and the baby. (DA, COTF, TEP, BP, EVR)

Cindar
this hulking Nikto was Havac's partner, during the Stark Hyperspace Conflict and the years following it. Cindar followed Havac to Asmeru, and stayed with him when he joined the Nebula Front group during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. Cindar distrusted Arwen Cohl, especially in the wake of the Revenue's destruction and Cohl's apparent death at Dorvalla. When the Jedi mission to Asmeru was broken up by Nebula Front militants, it was Cindar and his Bith counterpart who led the Ossan slaves to rise up against the Nebula Front soldiers, thereby freeing the Jedi and directing them to Karfeddion. Once on Karfeddion, though, Cindar tried to capture Qui-Gin Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi. In the fight, however, one of Cindar's blaster shots ricocheted back at himself, burning through the small of his back and severing the spine. Cindar died of his injuries. (COD)

Because the city was so large, covering more than half of the planet's surface, many beings in the Deep Core simply referred to the entire planet as Cinnagar. (DE1, NEGC, PH)

Cinnagar
this was another name used to describe the planet Empress Teta. The name came from the fact that, following the Great Sith War, the capital city of Cinnagar expanded so fast that it eventually covered much of the planet. Many residents of the Deep Core simply referred to the planet by the name of its sprawling capital. (GAS, FOSE, PH)
