Adarese
this was the spoken language of the Adarian race, which consisted of a collection of tonal inflections that could be easily formed by the Adarians' rigid mouth. (UANT)

Adarga
an Imperial Star Destroyer operative during the Galactic Civil War. It was used in the defense of the TIE Defender development site in the Parmel System. (TIE)

Adari
this planet is the homeworld of the Adarian race. It is covered with volcanic mountains, most of which are perpetually covered with snow. Its year lasts 409 standard days. (GG12)

Adarian
an alien race native to the planet Adari, the Adarians are humanoids with unusual cranial structures. Their skulls are elongated and tall, and have a large hole which goes completely through it. They have no ears or noses, and their mouth is ringed with sharp, bony ridges instead of lips. The Adarians make up for the lack of ears with a covering of fine hairs along their skulls that pick up the vibration of sound waves. A series of glands near the skin's surface allows them to smell. Their throats can be distended and filled with air, and the resulting "long call" can be useful as a communication method or a kind of defensive action. The Adarians have a rigid caste system which dominates their society, and they have evolved an advanced technology based on the use of super-cooled carbon-ice computers. They were able to remain neutral during the Galactic Civil War by signing a non-agression treaty with the Empire, providing the Empire with unlimited raw materials in return for their neutrality. (GG12)

Adarlon
this planet, located in the Minos Cluster, functioned as the Cluster's entertainment destination. By itself, Adarlon is a rugged, mountainous world originally settled by a group of Old Republic altruists - many from Alderaan - for its beauty rather than its resources. They were particularly well-funded, and their society grew into one of entertainment rather than survival. It was on Adarlon that the holographic medium was developed as an entertainment staple, and music from the planet is also highly sophisticated. Its primary industry was centered around tourism, and its temperate climate was well-suited to the various resorts and parks which operated there. Adarlon has a day which lasts 21 standard hours, and a year which lasts 381 local days. Adarlon was also the home to one of the most famous opera companies in the galaxy, and the famous opera singer Neile Janna was a native of Adarloon. (GG6, SWJ5)

Adas
this ancient Sith King was the gatekeeper of the Sith holocron used by the leader of Onderon, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. Adas was a huge man who had used the power of the Dark Side of the Force to conquer his homeworld some 24,000 years before the Great Sith War. Sith scholars of the period believed that Adas created the holocron more as a testament to his achievements than as a teaching device. (TOJC)

Adazian Liebke
this Weequay was a Major in the Alliance's Special Forces unit on New Kisge. A native of Sriluur, Liebke was part of a family with a rich military history, and he himself served in Dnalvec's militia and fought in the Houk-Weequay Conflicts.

located in the Outer Rim Territories, this was the primary world of the Adega System and the site of an important Jedi stronghold. It bordered the Cron Drift. Adega was one of the original nine Auril Systems, and was only one of six that remained following the creation of the Cron Drift. Note that Geonosis and the Outer Rim Worlds does not list Adega as a planet in the Adega System. Also note that many other sources indicate that Ossus was the site of the Jedi stronghold. (DE1, DE2, DLS, REB, GORW)

Adega Besh

Adega Prime
this star was one of the stars that formed the center of the Adega System, which contained the planet Ossus. (TOJC, GORW)

Adegan Crystals
similar in many respects to Ilum crystals, these minerals emitted powerful bursts of light when induced by resonant frequencies. This trait made them the most common crystals used to construct lightsabers by the ancient Jedi Knights. The most common Adegan crystal was kathracite, but it was also the least powerful of the Adegan varieties and tended to explode under stress. This meant that it was only used in low-power training lightsabers. Interestingly, as the crystal forms became less common, they also became more powerful. After kathracite, there were relacite, danite, mephite, and pontite crystal forms, each more powerful than the previous. Unlike Ilum crystals, which produced only blue and green lightsaber blades, Adegan crystals created a wide range of blade colors, including purple, gold, and pearlescent. Synthetic versions of the various Adegan crystals were eventually produced, but were less powerful than their natural counterparts. (DE1, WOTC)

Adegan Eel
this vicious creature was native to the Adega System. (DLS)

Aden, Tev
this man served as Dictio L'varren's chief aide, during the early years of the New Republic. Aden was killed shortly after the death of Shek Barayel, when he was confronted by Kaleb Darme. Kella Rand was the first to discover Aden's body and question Darme. Circumstantial evidence in the form of a remote detonation device found on Aden's body led many to believe he was responsible for Barayel's death, but he was later absolved of any crime when Imperial forces were discovered to be behind Barayel's murder. (SWJ6)

Adept

Complete male names are arranged based on harmony and cadence, but the literal meanings are arranged to ensure proper descriptions. The name Adi indicated vitality or personal power. (GCG)

Ad'ika
this was the diminutive form of the Mandalorian word ad, used in familiar terms to describe another Mandalorian individual. Depending on the context, ad'ika could be taken to mean "little one" or "kid", but could also used as an informal form of address. In general, ad'ika is used in friendly communication. (OWS)

Ad'ike
this was the plural form of the Mandalorian word ad'ika. (OWS)

Adipose Lice
this parasite lived on the fatty deposits of its host, causing tremendous weight loss in just a matter of hours. Experimentation in controlled reduction of bodily weight, via the injection of adipose lice, has been discussed and experimented with by many doctors and scientists. A selective toxin was injected to halt the spread of the lice. However, the adipose lice do not care which fatty tissues it attacks, and it consumes all fat it encounters. The treatment, which is extremely expensive, often causes more harm than good. (TBSB)

Adler Roty
this alien as a noted Sorcerer of Tund, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Adler Roty was also a showman, and traveled across the galaxy to entertain beings of all species with his unusual magic. He made sure to reinforce the idea that his form of magic was not The Force, but actual magic. He often used the adjectives "Facinorous, Moliminous, Nefandous, and Numamorous" to describe his show. (HNN4)

Adminidome
this was the operational headquarters found on Hologram Fun World. (HNN5)

Admiral Ackbar
this was one of two Star Destroyers in the navy of the Galactic Alliance that survived the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy with their gravity-well generators intact. It was also the flagship of the Fifth Fleet, and was commanded by Admiral Nek Bwua'tu, during the years following the defeat of the Yuuzhan Vong. Thus, it was paired with the other gravity-projecting vessel, the Mon Mothma, in the blockade of the Utegetu Nebula about a year after the Qoribu Crisis, in an effort to prevent the Gorog hive from expanding beyond the nebula's boundaries. Although the fleet was well-prepared, the sudden suicide attack by UnuThul's frigate left the crew of the Admiral Ackbar at their mercy. Admiral Bwua'tu was forced to call for the ship to be abandoned, and the Killiks made off with the vessel. However, the blockade was successful in that it kept the Gorog nest ship and ten others within the Utegetu Nebula. (DN2)

Admiral Korvin
Wilhuff Tarkin assigned this Trade Federation battleship to Raith Sienar's small fleet, during their attempt to obtain a Sekotan starship three years after the Battle of Naboo. At the time, the Admiral Korvin had not yet been handed over to the Old Republic Navy. (RP)

Admonitor
this Imperial-class Star Destroyer was under the command of Captain Dagon Niriz during the years following the Battle of Yavin.

Adner, Divina Quri
Wilek Nereus had proposed marriage to this woman, a native of Arkonne III. Unfortunately, Divina was killed by Phean Tic'Karcta, a jealous rival for Divina's business. Nereus eventually hunted down and killed Tic'Karcta to exact a measure of revenge. (TBSB)

Adnerem
this race of tall, thin humanoids was native to the planet Adner. They are distinguished by their large, triangular-shaped heads, which have a prominent bulge or knob in the center of their forehead. They have wide, flat eyes, and their thin arms end in hands which have four thin, talon-tipped fingers but lack a truly opposable thumb. The Adnerem were known for their desire to improve their socio-economic positions in life, which often required them to work for the betterment of their individual families, or steri. The average Adnerem tended to be asocial and introverted, but they were often found in small groups. A well-known phrase described the Adnerem this way: "Two Adnerem are a party, four a dinner, and six a funeral." (WBC, AE, SWJ11)

Ado Eemon
this being was the silver-tongued ruler of Caramm V, during the final years of the Old Republic. Eemon allied himself and his homeworld with the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars, and turned over huge industrial and manufacturing facilities to the Separatists in exchange for certain concessions. It was later learned that Eemon was not above skimming some of the HMP droid gunships produced on Caramm V for his own private fleet, which he used to eliminated any threats to his power. However, in his jealous desire to control everything, he destroyed much of Caramm V's beautiful landscape. (X3)

this Imperial depot, located on the planet Jerne, was rumored to be the resting place of the Eternity Crystal. Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa raced to Adony to discover the crystal before Darth Vader could, some time during the Galactic Civil War. Vader rigged the vault where the crystal rested - a nearly impenetrable coffer - to explode when the Alliance agents tried to open it. However, the Dark Lord was also caught in the explosion. Luke and Leia managed to escape, and Vader was buried under the rubble. He survived as well, but the crystal - and much of Adony Station - were lost. (CSWDW)

this woman and her husband lived on Siluria III, until the Empire invaded the world and killed her husband. Since then, she rallied her neighbors, and led successful guerilla attacks on the Empire. She even was able to remove the Imperial Governor of the planet, which got her noticed by Corwin Shelvay. Shelvay recruited her into the Alliance, where she trained with the likes of Page and Keleman Ciro. Both believed she was too aggressive and hot-headed, but she served faithfully as a Unit Commander during the Galactic Civil War. After the Battle of Endor, she served in Page's Commandos, and was part of the assault team dispatched to Kal'Shebbol to take down Imperial Moff Kentor Sarne. When Sarne escaped and the New Republic decided to hunt him down, Kaiay accepted command of the corvette FarStar and set out to capture Moff Sarne in Kathol Sector. (GG9, DARK, KO)

A-DSD
see Advanced Dwarf Spider Droid (LAWS)

AD-series Droid
this model of droid was often used on military bases as an armory administrator, providing specialized weaponsry and equipment repair. Designed and manufactured by Arakyd, the AD series was targetted for sale to the Empire as an armory unit, programmed to handle weapons maintenance more efficiently that humans. However, the Empire deemed that the benefits of the AD-series droid was marginal (estimates of less than 0.001% gains in efficiency have been documented), and declined to purchase the AD. Arakyd had assumed that the Empire would purchase them and mass-produced the AD-series, and found themselves with a huge inventory of unsold droids. Eventually, Arakyd managed to unload the AD-series to local law enforcement agencies and independent mercenaries. (ROE, GG10, FTD)

Adsila Rifts
this area of shifting dunes was located on the extreme western edge of the Doaba Badlands, on the planet Socorro. The area was known for its huge concentration of sand wells, which made it especially dangerous to traverse. (BSS)

Aduba-1
this ball of searing-hot rock was the innermost world of the Aduba System. (GMR4)

Aduba-2
this planet, a terrestrial world draped in a poisonous atmosphere, was the second planet in the Aduba System. (GMR4)

Aduba-3
Aduba-3 was the third planet in the Aduba System, located in the Outer Rim. It was orbited by a single moon, and was originally settled as an agricultural world. Despite its arid appearance, Aduba-3's plains were fed by arterial rivers that snaked through the planet's crust. However, after it was rumored to have rich and widely-distributed lodes of chromium, Aduba-3 experienced a boom in population that rendered much of its landscape a dusty wasteland. These rumors turned out to be false, the product of several greedy schemers who seeded existing mines with chromium deposits. Because of this deceipt - which many later attributed to the Tenloss Syndicate - many spacers chose to avoid the planet altogether, as a reminder of its troublesome past. It orbited a fourth-class yellow sun, and was one of many planets throughout the galaxy with a native population of banthas. Han Solo, Jaxxon, and a group of adventurers liberated a village on this planet in the months following the Battle of Yavin. The village was being held by Serji-X Arrogantus. (MC7, MC16, GMR4)

Aduba-4
this was the fourth planet in the Aduba System, a terrestrial world that was orbited by a pair of moons. (LTA3, MC60, GMR4)

Adum Larp
this Rodian male owned and operated an equipment and supply store on Dantooine, during the era of the Great Sith War. (KOTOR)

Adumar
this remote world, located on the inner edge of Wild Space, was colonized some 10,000 years before the Battle of Yavin by separatists who had rebelled against the Old Republic. They had been defeated by the Republic's forces, and given the option of death or resettlement. They chose to be resettled, opting to take their chances on a remote planet rather than be executed. The separatists evolved outside the mainstream of galactic growth for millennia, until they were contacted by the New Republic some 8 years after the Battle of Endor. The human natives of the planet, who call themselves the Adumari, developed a complex social structure which was based on personal honor and triumph over one's enemies. The primary industries of the planet were based on the production of war materiel, and they were skilled in the manufacture of proton torpedoes. They lacked a world government when a New Republic mapping ship accidentally found the planet and first contacted them, but the Adumari quickly learned that the Republic was not the only power in the galaxy. The perator of Cartann, Pekaelic ke Teldan, offered both the remnants of the Empire and the New Republic the chance to prove themselves and earn the alliance of Adumar in what basically became a popularity contest between Wedge Antilles and Turr Phennir. The perator himself was eventually ousted in favor of his son, who was more receptive to creating a democratic world government, where his father had wanted a government controlled by Cartann leaders. In the end, Adumar welcomed the New Republic and became a member world. Adumar has two moons. (SOA, PH)

Adumar Central Control
this was the starship traffic control center of the planet Adumar. (SOA)

Adumar: Five Years of Union
written and produced by Hallis Saper, this award-winning documentary portrayed the events of Operation Joystick and the struggle to bring the planet Adumar into the membership of the New Republic. (PH)

Adumari
this was the name used by the human inhabitants of the planet Adumar. The descendants of a group of people who rebelled against the Old Republic and were defeated some 10,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, the Adumari continued to be a rebellious society even after they settled the planet. Their records indicated that there had been at least two huge wars which reduced the people to barbarism, but their tenacious nature had brought them back each time. They had a complex social structure which was based on personal honor and triumph over one's enemies. Any Adumari could challenge another Adumari in armed combat, which was usually fought to the death unless the victor chose to lessen the prestige of his victory. Combat was the primary sport in Adumari society, with contests in ground-based combat and aerial dogfighting. The techniques developed by the Adumari were crude by modern galactic standards, since there were very few battles that involved more than two participants, and each was usually fighting for prestige rather than learning from past mistakes. As a people, though, the Adumari were known as hard-working, industrious people who developed sophisticated manufacturing facilities. What was considered unusual was that, despite their obsession with fightercraft, the Adumari never re-developed any form of space travel, a circumstance attributed to their unique society. When the Adumari were contacted by the New Republic and urged to form a world government, the perator of Cartann, Pekaelic ke Teldan, was approached first, since Cartann seemed to be the strongest of the existing city-states. However, the perator took it upon himself to ingratiate himself with the diplomats, in an effort to beat his rivals to the punch and become the planetary ruler. However, this Cartann-based government was met with opposition from several other nations, including the Yedagonian Confederacy and Halbegardia. In the end, it was discovered that the New Republic diplomat to Adumar, Tomer Darpen, was leading the Cartann leadership down a path he had chosen, rather than forming a democratic planetary government. The perator of Cartann opted to retire rather than be executed, and abdicated the throne to his son. A more representative world government was formed, and the Adumari elected to join the New Republic. (SOA, PH)

Adumari Union
this was the name of the world government envisioned by Escalion, perator of Yedagon, for the planet Adumar. It was endorsed by the perators of Halbegardia, Thozzelling, and Tetanne, and they offered the nation of Cartann - under the leadership of a new perator, Balass ke Teldan - a chance to join it and help create its laws and policies. The Adumari Union was eventually admitted to the New Republic. (SOA)

Advanced Appendage Bus
introduced shortly before the onset of the Clone Wars, this was Cybot Galactica's proprietary version of the Universal Socket Interface. While competitors and many small corporations claimed it was CG's method of driving its competition out of business, CG stated that the AAB was simply "more advanced technology." Benchmark tests showed that the AAB was up to three times as fast as the USI, at least according to CG spokebeings. Unfortunately for CG's customers, the AAB was incompatible with the USI, requiring the purchase of new technology in order to comply. (HNN5)

Advanced Base Baskarn
this was the name of the remote Alliance starfighter base established on Baskarn during the Alliance during the early years of the Galactic Civil War. (SWJ2)

Advanced Dwarf Spider Droid
this second-generation dwarf spider droid, designated the A-DSD, was manufactured by the Commerce Guild to be able to carry and fire a pair of target-seeking missiles. The A-DSD was also larger and more durable that the standard dwarf spider droid, the A-DSD also was armed with a heavy-duty laser cannon. (LAWS)

Advanced Explosives Handbook
a compilations of songs written and played by the band Deeply Religious. It has been banned by the Imperial Board of Culture. (GG9)

Advanced Reconnaissance Clone Trooper
known as an ARC Trooper or an Advanced Reconnaissance Commando, this was the term used to describe an elite soldier created from the genetic material of Jango Fett, cloned by the Kaminoans at the order of Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas. The Kaminoans had reservations about the ability of the Jedi Order to provide enough leaders for millions of clone troopers, so the ARC Trooper was developed to fill any possible voids. The ARC trooper had greater independence and adaptability than the standard clone trooper, and were often used in small groups for highly-sensitive missions. Jango himself had described the training program for the ARC Troopers, and was able to bypass the Kaminoans and instill his own orders into their training. Primary among these personal orders was directive to destroy all immature clones in the event that the Separatists attacked Kamino. Jango's final orders were that the young clones were to serve the Republic, or to die before they fell into enemy hands. The initial batch of ARC Troopers became known as the Null-class, and consisted of twelve individual clones that were developed from Jango's pure genetic stock. Only six survived to maturity, and were considered too unpredictable to maintain. The next generation became known as the Alpha-class, and consisted of the first 100 ARC Trooper. The ARCs were trained to be exceptionally strong and durable, with stamina that would amaze any race. The ability to recover from physical exertion was programmed into their training, with the ability to drop into various levels of rest to meet the individual needs of a trooper's body. They could even sleep on the march. The basic training of an ARC trooper was geared toward sending them out on solo missions, although they were often trained in small groups to minimize the time required to get them trained. The independence of the ARC troopers, however, made them somewhat unpredictable in battle. For this reason, the Kaminoans kept the ARC Troopers in stasis tubes until it was absolutely necessary to use them. Among the traits retained from Jango's original genes were several pieces of his memory; most prominently, the ARC Troopers retained a measure of disdain for the Jedi Knights. (OWS, RDK, WOTC, TCD, VD3, SWI84)

Adventurer
this Crescent-class Mark II transport was owned by Aelon Reglis, after he decided that he was going to be the first member of his family to travel among the stars. He gave the Adventurer to his daughter, Lynx, as a graduation present after she graduated from the Imperial Academy. She found little free time to actually use the ship, and it only saw action when she impersonated the Alliance agent Sapphire on a mission to Kira Sector. Shortly afterward, Lynx was implicated in a plot to steal military secrets and was arrested. The Adventurer was impounded by Imperial forces and later dismantled. (SS)

Adventurer
this long-barreled slugthrower was produced by Czerka Arms during the last decades of the Old Republic.
