F1
This was the designation of a small tractor beam generator model that was produced by Phylon during the height of the New Order. (CCS)

F-187
This small fusion cutter was manufactured by SoroSuub for use by starship technicians and mechanics. It could be used to slice through metals, plastics, and wire, and qas also equipped with a bit for punching small holes. (EGW)

F1-series Droid
Developed by Cybot Galactica, this four-legged companion droid was designed for use by scouts and explorers. Canine in shape, the F1 droid was equipped with a heavy grasping jaw designed for holding without crushing. The head of the droid contained video, audio, and olfactory pickups, as well as a communications uplink and movement sensor package. Additionally, the F1 was equipped with programming and skills to pull its owner out of harm's way in case of an emergency. (GG8, FTD)

f-2
This was the designation of Comar's light ion cannon. Many tramp freighter captains installed this weapon on their ships, since it was a relatively inexpensive way to disable an attacking ship. (GG6)

F-22
This humanoid automaton was one of the many repair droids that serviced the Starspeeder 3000 tour vessels that were maintained by Star Tours, during the Galactic Civil War. (ST)

F-23

F-24
This humanoid automaton was one of the many repair droids that serviced the Starspeeder 3000 tour vessels that were maintained by Star Tours, during the Galactic Civil War. (ST)

F2-series Droid
This second-generation exploration droid was manufactured by Cybot Galactica. These droids were known to be loyal, dedicated, and moderately clever in their ability to solve problems. (ROE)

F-31
This was the designation of a mid-level starship engine system produced by Kuat Systems Engineering, during the early years of the New Order. The F-31 was an ion engine system, and it was believed that Boba Fett installed one of these units aboard the Slave I. (SWG2P, CCS)

F-3PO
This droid worked as a protocol on Cloud City until the prototype X0-X1 took control of the city. X0-X1 also took control of F-3PO and forced the droid to execute Doctor Issan Len. F-3PO retained enough of its original programming to regret the murder, but was powerless to stop X0-X1. (CCC)

f-4
This was the designation of Comar's medium ion cannon. It was more powerful than the f-2, but not as strong as the f-6. (GG6)

F4-7
One of the medical droids evacuated from the Alliance's Echo base on the Bright Hope. F4-7 was 2-1B's medical assistant. (TBH)

F4-MF
This modified IG-series droid was a member of the Rebel Four. F4-MF, along with the rest of his companions, was killed on Vatleria by Darth Vader. F4-MF was pulled apart by the Dark Side of the Force. (T9)

F-57 Nucleon
This luxury skimmer was produced during the final years of the Old Republic. With its retro styling and a Class Three repulsorlift, the F-57 Nucleon was distinguished by its one-piece windschield, sweeping tail fins, and a cockpit placed at the forward end of the skimmer. The F-57 Nucleon was produced in a variety of deep, rich colors, and was detailed with chrome accents that gave the vehicle a classic appearance. (CN2)

f-6
This was the designation of Comar's most powerful ion cannon, designed for use on transport ships and bulk freighters. (GG6)

F7
Kuat Drive Yards drop ship, the F7 was affectionately known as the Landing Brick. It was a 60-meter troop transport ship that was used to get troops from an orbiting capital ship to a planet's surface. They were minimally shielded and armed with only a single laser cannon. They were equipped with huge, short-burst drive systems that operate only upon landing. The drop ship free-falls to the surface, and the engines kick in just before impact. This allows the ship to entry a planet's atmosphere nearly undetected. (DFRSB)

F-76
This quadrant of Galactic City was considered part of the commercial district of Coruscant, during the final decades of the Old Republic. Despite its location, quadrant F-76 maintained a landing strip and docking facilities that were primarily for the use of the businesses that were based in the quadrant. (RCTZ)

F7V
This series of valet/translator droids was produced by Cybot Galactica. They were capable of translating over 3,000,000 languages via a TranLag II communication module. (TA)

F8GN
This tall, spindly, copper-colored droid was owned by Garris Shrike. Shrike programmed the droid to keep a running tally of the credits brought in by the children who worked for Shrike. Each child was given a territory to work on Corellia, and F8GN's job was to make sure each child brought in the proper amount. F8GN was in need of repair almost constantly, as indicated by the patchwork of small plates and welds on its body. F8GN's vocabulator didn't always work right, and alternated between a metallic shrill and a deep, unctuous boom. F8GN's eyes were fitted with different colored lenses, giving the droid one red eye and one green eye. (TPS)

f-9
This was the designation of Comar's heavy ion cannon. (FOP)

F9-TZ
This repulsorlift-equipped troop transport vehicle was produced during the height of the New Order. Considered illegal on many Imperially-controlled worlds, the F9-TZ was distinguished by its use of a small cloaking device. This cloaking device was not exceptionally powerful, and could only be used for a short time before requiring a recharge. However, this was usually enough time to allow the pilot of an F9-TZ transport to carry troops into a battle zone without being detected by enemy sensors, providing the troops with the element of surprise. The only drawback to its stealth systems was the fact that an F9-TZ transport was unarmed, and therefore required a heavy escort to protect it on the battlefield. This drawback, combined with the high price demanded by the cloaking system, made the F9-TZ prohibitively expensive for many military and paramilitary organizations. The cloaking device itself was integrated into the hull of the vehicle, so it could not be removed and used on another vehicle. (LAWS, WOTC)

FA-4
This humanoid FA-4 pilot droid was owned by Count Dooku, and was used as the pilot of Dooku's solar sailer during the build-up to the Clone Wars. (X2, NEGD)

FA-4 Pilot Droid
This model of FA-series droid was produced by SoroSuub to serve as a pilot. Most of the FA-4 pilot droids that were sold during the final years of the Old Republic were purchased by taxi fleet owners and starport facilities, to pilot small transports that carried organic beings from one location to another. These FA-4 units were programmed with the maps of their local environment, and were able to efficiently move beings to their destinations. A small number of FA-4 pilot droids were solid to private individuals, who employed them as starship pilots for their landspeeders or personal space yachts. (NEGD)

FA-5 Valet Droid
This model of the SoroSuub FA-series of pilot droid, produced during the final years of the Old Republic, was officially categoriazed as a valet droid. Unlike the FA-4, the FA-5 models moved about on a pair of articulated legs. Where the FA-4 was marketed as a pilot, the FA-5 was designed to assist travelers in moving to and from their destination. These droids carried baggage and helped beings navigate through starports. A small number of them were sold as personal valets, performing household chores. (CHRN2, NEGD)

FA-504s
This was one of the less-popular transport ship designs produced by the Corellian Engineering Corporation during the height of the Galactic Civil War. It measured just 28 meters in length, and could transport up to ten passengers and 100,000 metric tons of cargo. (GMR5)

Faa
One of several species of scalefish native to the oceans of Naboo, the faas had stiff, armored bodied which were narrow and tall. This allowed the faa to inhabit thin crevices in the rocks, as well as allowing them to catch prey which hid in the crevices. Note that Star Wars Chronicles: The Prequels indicates that the faa was also known as the faynaa. (IG1, WSW, CHRN2)

Faa
This terrestrial planet was the fourth world in the Kamino System. It was orbited by a pair of moons. (GORW)

Faal, Kelan
This Hapan man was a member of Grov Bricker's pirate crew, working aboard the Mourning Glory during the height of the New Order. Faal was related by birth to the pirates that patrolled the Transitory Mists. As the ship's navigator, Faal used the same routes over and over, once he knew that they were reliable and safe. On one trip, however, the crew encountered a gravity mass-shadow that dragged their ship out of hyperspace on the edge of the Transitory Mists. The pirates were captured by the Star Home, and brought to Hapes for interrogation. It was during this time that Kelan provided a wealth of information to Bricker and the crew on the traditions of Hapes, which were decidedly matriarchal. Kelan also tried to dispel some of the rumors associated with Hapan culture, although Bricker chose to ignore most of it. After they were intercepted by the Star Home, Bricker allowed Kelan to assume command of the Mourning Glory, in the hopes of avoiding and confrontations. Their ruse failed to produce any good results, and both were thrown into prison. Ta'a Chume herself threatened to kill Kelan, unless he provided information on the whereabouts of Prince Isolder. Kelan had no idea where Isolder was, but he also believed that the Ta'a Chume wouldn't kill them. This was of little solace to Bricker, since he had no idea what Kelan was thinking. However, Faal was unprepared for the Queen Mother's desire to kill them both, and their execution nearly succeeded. Only the intervention of Lady Elliar saved them, when she managed to throw a gun of command to Faal. It was then that Faal revealed his true identity, that he was actually Prince Isolder himself. With the gun of command, he shot the Queen Mother and ordered her to free Captain Bricker and his crew. Although Isolder was forced to remain on Hapes, the pirates were freed to leave. Captain Bricker later wrote down his experiences in the story Planet of the Amazons: The Tale of the Pirate Ship Mourning Glory. (PH)

Faalo, Vo'ren
This Jedi Master wrote the book The Book of Practical Lightsaber Technique, in which he described a series of practice cadences. Each cadence required the Jedi to be as one with the Force, and manipulate smal steel bearings at the top of candle with their lightsaber. (GG9)

Faaloo
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 "a cool breeze on a warm day". (GCG)

Faan'er Award
This was one of the galaxy's most prestigious medical awards, given to noted physicians during the years following the war against the Yuuzhan Vong. (MF)

Faargau
This gas giant was the seventh planet in the Zug System. It was orbited by 14 moons. (PH)

Faarl the Conqueror
This was the name used by Faarl, a young man from the planet Korlings. Often called the Child Conquerer, Faarl was the eldest son of a noble family of Korlings, and was barely sixteen when Emperor Palpatine was killed at Endor. He started out his career as a pirate, raiding the defenseless worlds of Wild Space. By the age of nineteen, he had conquered seven or more primitive planets located in the Parthovian Cluster. He was feared on the planets he conquered, especially in the Parthovian Cluster. He preys mainly on planets with small populations and limited defenses. He established his base of power on the planet Pochi, in a citadel known as Fortress Baarlos. However, his predations eventually earned him a bounty on his head. Faarl believed himself to be safe within his fortress, until Boba Fett managed to break through his Tulvaree guards and capture Faarl. (WBC, SWI80)

Fabool
This avian creature was native to the planet Dantooine. It resembled a winged balloon, with a large, swollen body supported by small wings. They tended to avoid the bilba trees while flying, in order to avoid getting stuck in their branches. The native Dantari often skinned the fabool and tanned their hides for use in making bags and clothing. (GOF11, DTO)

Fabrennix Oxygen Extractor
This device was used to extract oxygen from underground water or water vapor sources. It used a meter-long probe to dig down into the surface of a planet or planetoid, extracting individual molecules of water in order to collect enough to drink. (GFT)

Fabreth Medical Biochemicals
This corporation produced a wide range of portable medical supplies, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (GFT)

Fabrillan
This city, the capital of the planet Malthor, was a hotbed of rebel activity during the Galactic Civil War. Fabrillan had a large contingent of Reigats during this time, depsite the Empire's control of the city. (CRO)

Fabrin
This city, located on Thorgeld I, was the site of the Mandel mansion. (GG9)

Fabrin
This planet served as the headquarters for Fabritech. (NEGW)

Fabritech
This corporation was founded almost a century before the Galactic Civil War, and manufactured many starship systems, including sensor packages and target tracking devices. Headquartered on the planet Fabrin, Fabritech prided itself on the durability of its products. During the Galactic Civl War, Fabritech briefly produced several weapons systems, but continued to make the bulk of its profits on sensors and scanners. (TLC, SCRE, NEGW)

Fabswa the Mutilated
This Swokes Swokes appeared to be much smaller than an average member of his race. This was due to the fact that he had cut away large portions of his flesh in order to improve himself as a warrior. Fabswa was a devout member of the Temple of the Beatific Razor, and his self-deprication allowed him to earn the rank of First Glorious Assassin during the last decades of the Old Republic. One of the many changes he made to his body was the implanting of a comlink into his head, so that he could receive instructions and devotionals from his superiors. He often wore a dead schinga picai draped over his shoulders. (GORW)

F'abul, Mindt
This man was a noted cybernetic specialist and surgeon who worked from an office in the city of Theed, on the planet Naboo, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (SWGAL)

Fabuza
This word from the Jawan language translated into Basic as "shoes." (GPB)

Fac, Sun
This Geonosian was Poggle the Lesser's chief aide, during the years leading up to the Battle of Geonosis. He was known to be exceptionally intelligent and creative, even for a Geonosian, and played any role that Poggle demanded of him. These roles included attentive aide as well a heartless executioner, although he was most often the Geonosian who first met with offworlders who had business with Poggle. He was also placed in charge of conducting business on behalf of the lesser hives, which many considered an insult to their pride. Sun Fac reveled in this, taking advantage whenever he could, but also earning the hatred of the other leaders. (E2N, VD2, GORW)

Face
This was the nickname of the Mark IV patrol droid IM4-099 which patrolled Mos Eisley, during the months leading up to the Battle of Yavin. (SWSE, BTM)

Face Gang
This group of Delphanian thugs was formed aboard the Imperial prison barge Purge, about a year before the Battle of Yavin. The group was originally formed as a work crew, but the gang's leader, Aur Myss, made no effort to hide the fact that the Face Gang was also the strongest of the criminal gangs the roamed the ship's Gen Pop levels. (SWDT)

Faceless
This was the code name of the rebel terrorist group on the planet Esseles. They operated on the fringes of the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War, and were responsible for bombing attacks on several Imperial outposts, including Grande Hyet and Tralee. (SWJ9)

Faceted
This was the name of Thune's jury-rigged YT-1300 starship. During the height of the New Order, she had the ship outfitted with an impressive holographic projection system that allowed her to alter the appearance of the ship. It was powerful enough to produce the image of an Imperial-class Star Destroyer, which she employed in an attempt to capture Lando Calrissian and Lobot on the Cobra. Lobot was able to figure out what the situation was, and provided Lando with the targetting data necessary to destroy the projection system and reveal the ship's true appearance. After Thune was overpowered by Kaj Nedmak and Thune's droid, U-THR, Kaj took possession of the ship and renamed it the Starlight Red, in honor of Celia Durasha. (SWJ14, OWS)

Fa'chak
This Charon was one of the many members of the splinter group known as the Cult of Light. (UANT)

Facility, The
This was the name of the topmost section of Vergesso Base, and contained the primary spaceport, business services, and defense systems. (SPG)

Facing Facts
This insightful program was produced by the HoloNet News and Enetertainment corporation, during the era of the Clone Wars. Unfortunately, despite its reports and investigations, Facing Facts was one of the least-viewed political programs on the HoloNet, and was soon canceled due to poor ratings. (RC66)

Fact-Finders
This branch of the Dellaltian government and judicial system was charged with investigating the actions of suspected individuals, much like a police detective force. (HSL)

Factory District
This industrialized section of the cityscape found on the planet Coruscant was considered one of the harshest places to live on the planet. The Factory District was located in the Antipodes, on the opposite side of the planet from the center of Galactic City. This area of the planet was a thriving industrial center many centuries before the onset of the Clone Wars. Unfortunately, the development of industry on nearby worlds like Metellos and Brentaal meant that work could be completed cheaper offplanet. The facilities and buildings of the Factory District were abandoned over time, and it became a haven for all sorts of criminals and subterranean creatures. It was even rumored that there were bands of feral droids that patrolled the Factory District.

The buildings, very few of which rose above fifty stories, fell into disrepair, as did the roadways and other fragments of the infrastructure. Because of this area's remote location and that fact that a section of it was known as Feral City, Prince Xizor established a secret laboratory in the Factory District, where his scientists and technicians worked to perfect the technology for a human replica droid. Although Xizor hired the Salissians to eliminate the feral droids, the mercenaries were all but destroyed by the droids they encountered. The droids later attacked Xizor's laboratory, killing everyone they found and destroying all of their research.

During the search for the droid 10-4TO, Den Dhur and I-5YQ discovered that there was a massive reactor leak taking place beneath the Factory District, a leak that had steadily out of control for decades. The radiation that was bombarding the area may have driven the feral droids insane. It was during their escape with Jax Pavan that Den Dhur realized the reactor had reached a critical point and overloaded. The group managed to lift off just before the reactor exploded, taking out a crater eighty meters across and reducing much of the Factory District to radioactive ruins. (CN1)

Factory Works, The
This was another name used to describe the Factory District of the planet Coruscant. (CN2)

Factoryville
This was one of many industrialized, urban areas found in the Old Town section of Eriadu City, on the planet Eriadu. (EGP, GORW)

Factryn

Fadani, Digo
This was a noted Baragwin individual. (UANT)

Fadden
This planet was settled by Duros explorers during the early centuries of the Old Republic. (GMR2)

Faddo
This Rodian claimed to be a sales representative for the Tredwall company, and sold many a poorly-built droid to unsuspecting buyers. He often worked on the Vohai Unirail, peddling his cheap knockoffs. (FTD)

Faddo
This name, which meant "arrives early", was common among Gungan males. (GCG)

Fadoop
This Saheelindeeli worked for Grigmin and Han Solo, doing whatever odd jobs they had, during Grigmin's series of performances on the planet Saheelindeel. Like others of her species, she was a bow-legged primate covered in thick, green fur. However, she was somewhat obese and exceptionally outgoing for a Saheelindeeli. She was a con artist, and owned her own aircraft, the Skybarge. She was also fond of smoking odoriferous black cigars and chewing chak-root. When Han decided to show up Grigmin, he borrowed the Skybarge and mimicked the younger man's maneuvers, much to the approval of their audience. (HSL)

Faenarm, Morna
A former professional athlete, this dark-skinned woman witnessed first-hand the decadence and evil of the Empire while playing on many Imperial worlds. She decided to help the Alliance in any way she could. Upon retiring from sports, she joined Incom Industries as an accountant. She developed a network of contacts within Incom, including many upper-level managers, and was able to obtain information of great importance to the Alliance on a regular basis. She provided the information through a series of dummy accounts she established. (CRO)

Fafnir
This Snow Demon worked with Colonel Odan to fight back against the Imperial forces controlling the planet Akuria Two, during the height of the New Order. (PZZ2, MCI4)

Fahraark
This Wookiee slaver was an associate of Dayla Kev, during the early years of the Galactic Civil War. He worked with his partner, Friyahrr, and delivered a group of Hoojibs to the Galactic Horizon to assist Dayla in exacting her revenge on Milac Troper. (GMR6)

Fahul
This world was the sixth planet in the Derilyn System, and was important because of its vast ore deposits. Fahul was a cool, rocky world with a pair of moons. (PG3)

Faie
This man was one of the many clone commanders produced for the Grand Army of the Republic, during the height of the Clone Wars. A member of the 41st Elite Legion, Commander Faie was one of the many ground-force leaders during the Siege of Saleucami, where he was in charge of the engineering divisions. He was later dispatched to Kashyyyk, as part of the force that accompanied Jedi Master Yoda to eliminate the Separatist threat to the Wookiee homeworld. He chafed at the command techniques of the Jedi, especially Jedi Master Quinlan Vos, who believed that any military activity had to take into account the cost to the civilians and non-combatants. When Faie learned of the secret hyperspace travel routes that had been discovered and catalogued by the Claatuvac Guild, he demanded the Vos force the Wookiees to turn them over to the Republic. Vos refused, and went so far as to order Faie's complete silence on the matter. At the end of the Clone Wars, it was Commander Faie who shot and killed Jedi Master Luminara Unduli, when the command was issued to execute Order 66. He then set out to kill Master Vos, who had escaped the initial round of executions. He tracked the Jedi through the jungles, and threatened to destroy much of Kashyyyk's jungle if Vos didnb't surrender. Rather than accepting his fate, Vos ambushed Faie. As he leapt from a tree, Vos stabbed Faie through the chest with his lightsaber. Faie, however, managed to get off one blast at Vos, which took the Jedi in the chest. Although Faie died believing that Vos was dead, the Jedi was eventually taken to Nar Shaddaa by Vilmarh Grahrk, and later recovered from his injuries. (RSOS, SWI87, RHE)

Faile, Hendric
This man was the commander of the Kathol Republic's defense fleet in the years following the Battle of Endor. He was searching for the Lance of Endor while the FarStar was searching for Moff Sarne. When the Bravado III was attacked by Treidum's crews, Faile captured the FarStar by mistake, and impounded them on Dayark. He ordered them to stand trial in front of Chandra Hobat, the Republic's president, who eventually freed them after they expsoed the plans of Sho'ban DO. (KO)

Failey Club
This was one of the most exclusive, private clubs found in Tapani Sector. It was located on Estalle Island, on the planet Procopia. It was unusual in that it did not favor one noble House over the others. (LOE)

Faime
This was one of the most common female names given to human children across the galaxy. (GCG)

Fain, Sedret
This man served as the head of the Bureau of Science and Travel, based on the planet Duro, during the years leading up to the Battle of Yavin. He secretly embezzled BST funds in an effort to create his own mercenary force, hoping to capture Alliance operatives on Duro and earn himself a promotion to Imperial Advisor, or a posting on Coruscant. He strived to ensure that his operation was insular enough that he received all the credit, to help bolster his position in any such capture. His first chance came during the rescue attempt on Serrol Gathip, who had been trapped by Fain's thugs. A team of Alliance agents arrived to rescue Gathip, and Fain sent his thugs to capture them. However, the thugs were no match for the trained Alliance soldiers, and they were quickyl defeated. Fain himself, seeing his plans disintegrate, fled Duro and went into hiding. (RESB)

Fain, Thul
This former Imperial pilot, who served under Tanbris, left Imperial service and went to work as a smuggler and gambler. He went to work for Jabba the Hutt, and was well-known for betting on how long victims fed to the rancor would last. It was unclear what became of Fain, in the wake of Jabba's death at the Pit of Carkoon, just prior to the Battle of Endor. (CCG7, SWI98)

Fair at Bolgoink, The
This was the first of the major interclan fairs staged by the Gamorreans, held annually during the early season of Slushtime. (SWJ14)

Fair Gale
This SST-67 transit shuttle made regular runs from the surface of the planet Naboo to Ohma-D'un during the last decades of the Old Republic. On one fateful trip, it experienced severe trouble in the planet's ionosphere. The shuttle's Captain, an Ithorian named Worlohp, was driven mad by an accidental release of Kyvalon-4 gas, forcing his passengers to take control of the situation. (GMR1)

Fairfax
This was the shuttle used to transport Habeen diplomats to a rendezvous with the Shamus and the Imperial shuttle Nexus, when the Habeen discussed the sale of their hyperdrive technology with Admiral Zaarin, sometime after the Battle of Hoth. (TIE, TIEP)

Fairfolk
These ethereal beings resembled floating Jawas, and used the name Fairfolk to describe themselves to Luke Skywalker when he first encountered them on Dantooine, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Strong in the Force, the Fairfolk used telepathy to communicate with Luke. Unknown to Luke, however, the Fairfolk were actually agents of Darth Vader himself. They used subtle manipulations to lure Luke into their midst, then helped Vader establish a mental link to Luke through the Force. In this way, Vader was able to communicate with Luke and begin bending the youth's mind to the Dark Side of the Force. Through the Fairfolk, Vader tormented Luke with simple tricks of the Force, drawing Luke toward using the Dark Side in anger and frustration. Vader, stationed on the Star Destroyer Conqueror, maintained a link with the Fairfolk despite orders from the Emperor to return to the rest of the fleet. However, the intervention of Leia Organa, who had been searching for Luke, broke the trance of the Fairfolk and allowed Luke to return to himself. (3D3)

Fairweld Casino
This luxurious gambling establishment was located on Estalle Island, on the planet Procopia. (LOE)

Fairwell Station
This space station was known to have ties to the Alliance, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (T15)

Fairwind
This elegant warship was the flagship of the military forces led by Lord Valenthyne Farfalla, during the years leading up to the Battle of Ruusan. Many Jedi of the time felt that the Fairwind, which was designed and built to resemble an ancient sailing barge, was much too extravagant for a Jedi to have, indicating a level of vanity that was not often associated with the Jedi Order. One of the many examples of Lord Farfalla's extravagance was found in his private quarters aboard the ship, which were quite large. The floor was covered with a brightly-colored rug, and the walls were lined with Alderaanian artworks. A bed created from the wood of a wroshyr tree dominated one wall, the gift that was presented to Farfalla by Wookiee elders after he defeated a group of Sith Lords who tried to overtake the planet. The bedposts were covered with paintings of major events from Farfalla's life, while the sheets and pillow cases were made from silks that matched the red and gold of the rug. The rest of the quarters was given over to an office, which was dominated by an oversized desk.

In the wake of the Battle of Ruusan, however, Lord Farfalla had no qualms about turning the vessel into a rescue ship. He took on as many Jedi as he could fit into her holds, before the Sith could set off their thought bomb. (DBRT)

Fait, Maidtha
This Alliance trooper was known as a gambler, and was a member of Darius Squad, at Taul, shortly before the base was destroyed by the Victory-class Star Destroyer Dominator. (SWJ1)

Fait d'Fait
A planet located in the Rayter Sector, between Tintel and Azna. (CRO)

Fajinak, Ussin
This man served as a Lieutenant Commander in the Grand Army of the Republic, serving as the First Officer aboard the warship Aurodia during the Clone Wars. Fajinak left behind a wife when he was killed in battle. (RC66)

Fajji, Danna
This short, chubby man was the Baron-Administrator of Hologram Fun World during the period surrounding the Battle of Yavin. He was noticeable by his scruffy red beard and outgoing demeanor. He allowed Borborygmus Gog to construct the Nightmare Machine on Hologram Fun World, primarily because he was unaware of the true nature of the machine. At the height of the Empire's New Order, he began projecting holographic "visitors" around the park, to give the illusion of attendance. He had been trying to sell the amusement park, but Imperial oppression had severely reduced the number of beings who traveled to the park. (GOF4)

Fake, The
This was the term used by naval officers and strategists to describe a capital ship attack formation in which two opposing forces appeared to line up for a direct confrontation. At the last minute, the attacking ships turned their vessels ninety degrees, so that their flanks were facing the front of the enemy vessels. In this way, the attackers could bring the majority of their weaponry to bear on the enemy, while maneuvering to put their heaviest shields between themselves and the enemy. The drawback to this tactic was that, if an enemy captain could maintain their composure, they could fight the attacker to a draw and then drop in behind the attacker, where the enemy could fire at will on the drives an aft of the attacking vessel. (RASB)

Fakir
This planet, located in the system and sector of the same name, was part of the galaxy under Imperial control during the Galactic Civil War. It was where some of the Empire's wealth was stored. Voren Na'al once operated as an Alliance spy in the Fakir System, posing as a special agent to Moff Lorin of the system during the infiltration of an information network on Halowan. (SWSB, MTS)

Fakir Sector
This area of the galaxy was located just outside the Core Worlds, and contains several hundred planets. Some 50 of these worlds produced intelligent life forms by the era of the New Order and the Galactic Civil War. (SWCP)

Fal
This was the third planet in the Obas System. (IA)

Fal, Morana

She believed that Karak had fled the city in order to find a way to free the Golden Sun for all Sedrians. The Alliance team sent to rescue Mors Odrion was brought to Karak's settlement by Pek, and they were able to convince Fala that her father simply wanted the Golden Sun for his own use. The discovery of Karak's plans to share the Golden Sun with the Empire turned Fala away from her father. She joined forces with Pek in an effort to ensure the Golden Sun was available to all Sedrians. After defeating her father and scattering pieces of the Golden Sun across Sedri's oceans, Fala and Pek were married, and together they worked to restore Sedrian society to its former state. (BGS)

When he discovered that the Empire had put his well-intentioned ideas to use in a weapon of mass destruction, he suffered a massivebreakdown. Falken was confined to a repulsorchair from that point on, and became very secretive. He was easily noticed by his repulsorchiar, but also by his wild, unkempt, gray hair. After retiring to Mrlsst, Falken's work became the founding influence for the band Ghost Jedi. His music had been praised throughout the galaxy as precise yet emotionless, much like the scientific work he performs.

This was the term used by historians to denote the final years of the ancient Sith Empire, which collapsed in the wake of the Great Hyperspace War. It was believed that the Sith Empire began to crumble after the death of Marka Ragnos, when Naga Sadow and Ludo Kressh each sought to assume rulership of the Sith Empire. The resulting struggle for power led to the discovery of the Sith Empire by the ancient Jedi Knights and the forces of the Old Republic. In the Great Hyperspace War, both Ludo Kressh and Naga Sadow were believed to have been killed, and the Sith were beaten into submission and forced back to a few traditional worlds. (EGF)

This obscure, philosophical treatise was written by Codus Romanthus. The treatise was based on the tenet that, "Peace is found neither in hot blood nor in cold sweat," and that no amount of fighting could ever restore a time of peace to the galaxy. (DSTR)

Fallanassi
A group of beings which originated on Lucazec, the Fallanassi eventually became a quasi-religious order made up of various species. The Fallanasi were originally formed by a group of Force adepts who followed the way of the White Current, another name for the Force. The original Fallanasi had no desire to physically affect their surroundings, and their knowledge of the White Current eliminated all aspects of physical manipulation using the Force. Instead, they focused on the mind, spirit and body, and how these three entities formed a single individual. This flowed into the ways in which numbers of individuals formed the eddies and whorls of the White Current. The Fallanassi were the subject of Imperial pursuit during the Galactic Civil War, for Palpatine wanted to control their Force-like powers. The Fallanassi fled Lucazec some two years before the Battle of Yavin, and scattered throughout the galaxy. They have an innate ability to change names, appearances, and habits in order to blend in with their surroundings. This had allowed them to evade Imperial pursuit on the various worlds they fled to, such as Teyr and Atzerri. Most of the Fallanassi had relocated to planets in the Koornacht Cluster, and were subjected to the executions of the Yevetha during the Black Fleet Crisis. A few realized the danger, and sent the Star Morning to recover any and all survivors. Following the Battle of N'zoth, the remaining Fallanassi fled the Cluster and hid themselves, hoping to recover from their losses and regain their strength and unity. Many followed Akanah and settled on Pydyr, where they remained hidden from the rest of the galaxy for many years. After the defeat of the Yuuzhan Vong, the Fallanassi wondered at the wisdom of the new Jedi order's view of the Force as a single entity. Many Fallanassi saw their new beliefs as folly that was rivaled only by their arrogance, fearing that new Jedi Knights would tap the Dark Side as well as the Light Side, thereby falling more quickly to evil. (BTS, SOL, WOTC, DN1)

Fallanji
This Twi'lek was a minor crimelord on the planet Alvorine, during the early years of the New Republic. Fallanji was, at one time, a member of Krova the Hutt's organization.

Falleen
This planet, located in the galaxy's Mid Rim, was the homeworld of the Falleen race. In the years following the Battle of Naboo, Falleen experienced a boom in the construction of factories and manufacturing facilities, as corporations found it was cheaper to maintain such facilities on remote planets. Later, during the early years of the New Order, Darth Vader set up a bacteriological research outpost on the planet. When a highly-destructive bacterium got loose, Vader acted without remorse. He ordered his ships in orbit to raze the laboratory and the city surrounding it. Seven years before the Battle of Yavin, Vader wiped out the bacterium, along with an entire city and over two hundred thousand Falleen. Among the dead were Prince Xizor's parents, a brother and two sisters, and three uncles. Decades later, Falleen fell to the Yuuzhan Vong, shortly after the destruction of the Fondor shipyards and Hosk Station. (SE, MA, BP, JQ9, NEGA, CHRN2)

Falleen
This race of reptilian humanoids was characterized by their cool, calculating demeanor, as well as their ability to use pheromones to influence other beings. As a people, the Falleen despised mammalian races as inferior, emotional beings. The average Falleen's body was covered with small scales, and individuals often had a topknot of hair on their heads. Their scales could change color with their emotions, and they exuded intense pheromones when they wanted to. The males use these pheromones to attract females.

The Falleen were humanoid in stature, and have clawed fingers and toes. Their ancestors lived in the water, and most Falleen litters were birthed in the water. The average individual could live to be more than 250 years of age, and there were records that showed healthy individuals living for 400 years or more.

Over the history of their civilization the Falleen evolved into what some consider the most beautiful of all humanoid races. As a people, the Falleen existed in a feudal society, with noble houses ruling over lower classes of artisans, workers, and slaves. Rather than become wrapped up in learning about the galaxy at large, the Falleen chose to remain introverted and refine their already "superior" culture.

Then, about ten years before the Battle of Hoth, Darth Vader eliminated a great portion of the Falleen population in order to stop the spread of a bioweapon which had been tested on the planet and had been set free. In reaction to these murders, the Falleen withdrew even further from the galactic community.

After the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, the Falleen were forced to flee the alien invaders, who subjugated their homeworld shortly after the Battle of Fondor. After the Yuuzhan Vong were defeated, the Falleen remained hidden, and very few were seen in the galaxy at large. (SE, AE, BP, NEGA)

Falleen
This was the native language of the Falleen race. (UANT)

Falleen's Fist
This was the name of Prince Xizor's personal skyhook, erected in low orbit around Coruscant during the height of the New Order. It was destroyed during the space battle over Coruscant between Xizor's forces trying to intercept Leia Organa and the Alliance, just prior to the Battle of Endor. The battle attracted the attention of the Imperial fleet under Darth Vader, who concentrated his fire on Xizor's forces instead of the Alliance. Vader wanted thwart Xizor's attempts to kill Luke Skywalker, and chose to have Luke escape. Vader opened fire on Xizor's skyhook when Xizor failed to call in his ships. It was believed that Xizor was killed on the skyhook. (SE, NECH)

This young man was the leader of Borus's Boys, a group of militant youths who banded together in the city of Gadrin, on Cularin, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. He spent much of his time looking after all the dishomed youth in Gadrin, and his reputation as the leader of Borus's Boys earned him the attention of the Thaereian Military. The Thaereians had been behind the capture or kidnapping of children and adults for many months, as part of a larger plot to acquire Force-sensitive individuals for various projects. Fallon found himself the target of a kidnapping attempt shortly after Borus Ferthyn's death, but he was rescued by a group of freelance agents who were working for Osten Dal'Nay. (NET2)

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

Falloon
This Rodian was living on the planet Sriluur, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. He offered a group of Jedi supporters a large sum of credits to allow him and his droid, 9T-LOM, a chance to escape from Peace Brigade goons. He was obviously wealthy, but carried himself as something of a commoner. Nevertheless, the mercenaries managed to get him to his ship, the Gilded Thranta, and they all escaped to Coruscant. Along the way, the mercenaries learned that Falloon was actually the Rodian accountant Soolehad. (WOA13)

Fallowan
This remote, Outer Rim world was so far from other inhabited areas of space that it was often missing from awstrogation charts. Located near the Nelvana Gas Cluster, Fallowan was a temperate world that had an agrarian economy, but few beings ever made a trip directly to the planet. Instead, most of the traffic that was seen on Fallowan wasmade up of lost pilots or pilots who needed to make repairs. This made Fallowan the perfect place for an Imperial data center, during the height of the New Order. Leia Organa and Han Solo infiltrated the data center and stole a wealth of information, and only barely escaped with their lives, about a year before the Battle of Hoth. (PLRR)

Shortly afterward, she claimed to have been part of an expedition to Uriek, where she befriended Granta Omega. She developed an attachment to Sith artifacts after spending time with Omega, and later helped him capture Anakin Skywalker. She revealed that she had taken Darra Thel-Tanis' lightsaber while on Haariden, and challenged a drugged Anakin to a duel. Even in his stupor, Anakin nearly defeated her, but Omega ordered his people to flee. Her devotion to Omega and the Sith was deep, but she overestimated Omega's concern for her. When the pair was confronted on Haariden, as the Kaachtari volcano began to erupt, Omega pushed Mellora off his swoop and fled to safety. She was rescued by Obi-Wan and Anakin, and turned over to the Haaridan police for questioning. (JQ4)

Falso, Turk
This Weequay was a member of Hondo Ohnaka's pirate crew, during the era of the Clone Wars. It was Turk Falso who searched Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker for weapons, when the Jedi arrived at Ohnaka's base on Florrum to validate that the pirates had actually captured Count Dooku. Unknown to Ohnaka, however, was the fact that Falso was planning to betray him. Falso thought Ohnaka was a weak fool, and set out to intercept the Old Republic shuttle that was carrying the ransom for Count Dooku. Falso and his thugs shot the shuttle down, but were unprepared for the combat skills of the clone troopers who were piloting the shuttle. Although the thugs managed to capture the ransom, the clone troopers managed to recover it, with help from Jar Jar Binks. Only Falso survived the assault to return to Ohnaka's fortress, and he spun a tale of a Republic invasion army to cover his trail. With Ohnaka distracted while making plans to confront the non-existent army, Falso made a bid to escape from the fortress, hoping to avoid Ohnaka's retribution. Unfortunately, Falso's escape coincided with Count Dooku's escape. In order to ensure secrecy, Dooku used the Force to strangle Falso, then used it to slam his lifeless body to the ground. (CWTV11, CWTV12)

Falsswon
This tall, blue-skinned humanoid male lived in the city of Tolea Biqua, on Cularin, during the last decades of the Old Republic. An imposing figure, Falsswon had sharpened his black-rooted teeth to make him look more fearsome. He was interviewed briefly by Melanda Forswoth, shortly before the Battle of Geonosis, and asked several questions about the Caarite homeworld of Caarimon. He took exception to her superficial questions, and pulled a blaster out of his clothing. He shot the camera which had been taping the interview, and Forswoth was never seen again. The Cularin Central Broadcasting corporation later recovered the camera and its recordings, and aired them in an effort to help locate Falsswon. (LFCW)

This huge beast resembles an elephant-sized horse, and was native to the planet Naboo. These highly intelligent, powerful creatures roamed the swamps and plains of the planet in great herds, and their distinctive bellowing call can be heard for kilometers around. Excellent swimmers, falumpasets could be domesticated, and were used as beasts of burden by the Gungans. However, their temperment was uniformly stubborn and uncooperative at best. (GF, SON, WSW)

Falung
This Yuuzhan Vong priestess worshipped Yun-Harla. It was Falung who took in Vergere, after Zonama Sekot repelled the alien invaders' first attacks, shortly after the Battle of Naboo. Falung already had one familiar, but Vergere promised to provide information about the galaxy in return for her life. This familiar, a bird-like creature, had been taken from the galaxy, and was the only creature among the Yuuzhan Vong who radiated any kind of presence in the Force. (DW)

Fam
This was a common name given to male Kel Dor. Like all Kel Dor given names, it was short enough that it didn't attract the attention of certain wind spirit, which would carry away young children with long-winded names. (GCG)

Fambaa
This giant creature, native to the planet Naboo, resembled a reptile but was technically an amphibian. The fambaa was herbivorous and even-tempered by nature, but was fearsome in its appearance. They were domesticated by the land-dwelling Gungans as a pack animal, and can carry huge loads such as the immense shield generators used to protect Gungan warriors. Before the Gungans moved to dwellings beneath the water, there were no wild fambaas on Naboo. However, in their haste to escape the notice of the Naboo, the Gungans abandoned small groups of fambaa, which eventually established their own packs. Young fambaa was hatched in eggs, and were born with feathery gills that allowed them to live in the water before emerging onto land. (E1N, GF, SON, WSW)

Famulus
This was one of the House Vandron crusiers which escorted the Prominenceand the Ecliptic to Asmeru, during the Old Republic's attempt to infiltrate the Nebula Front. It was the Famulus which relayed the news of the Ecliptic's destruction to Coruscant. (COD)

Fanaso, Shandy
This Corellian man owned and operated the starship One Too Many, during the height of the New Order. Captain Fanaso grew up working on similar ships, cutting his teeth aboard the Corellian Gambit, which was how he came to know about the Tract of Gactimus and the many rules that were enforced in the Domains of Triton. When one of his first jobs got delayed on Eriadu, Fanaso decided to take a series of smaller cargos to Pangarees, and was directed to move his cargo through the Triton Besh Port. He was briefly detained by Lieutenant Gallagane of Imperial Customs, who warned him to abide by the Rules of Law for the Domains of Triton. Upon landing on Triton Besh, he was confronted by Mactimentus, one of the many strange, insectile beings who lived on the moon, and who presented Fanaso with a copy of their laws and a copy of the Tract of Gactimus. After seeing what the laws involved, Fanaso came up with the idea of hosting a cabaret aboard the Corellian Gambit, providing drinks and entertainment completely within the ship's confines. In this way, he hoped to circumvent the many laws prohibiting any form of intoxicants or stimulation on Triton Besh, as prescribed by the law.

For the first few weeks were quite profitable, and Fanaso found himself breaking even for the trip well before his supplies ran out. However, Mactimentus seemed to always be waiting for him outside the Corellian Gambit, almost pleading with Fanaso to put a halt to the operation of Shandy's Place. Fanaso tried to explain that the cantina was helping to bring more and more potential converts to Triton Besh, but the insect would hear none of his rationalizations. In spite of the insect's concerns, Fanaso sold the Corellian Gambit and used the profits to purchase a Whaladon-class container ship, which he named Shandy's Pleasure Palace, and set out to return to Triton Besh and make even more credits. Lieutenant Gallagane once again warned him about the Rules of Law, but Fanaso ignored him.

Upon once again arriving at Triton Besh, Fanaso discovered that he should have listened to Gallagane. The insects had enacted forty-three new changes to the Rule of Law, and Shandy's Pleasure Palace was in violation of most, if not all, of them. In order to pay his fines, Fanaso was forced to cede the ship and all its contents to the insects. Furthermore, he was required to perform devotion-service for the insects, reciting the words of the Tract of Gactimus in the only legal cantina in the Triton Besh Port. Once he had finished 500 complete and accurate recitations of the words of Gactimus, Fanaso's devotion-time would be complete, and he would be free to leave. Fanaso believed that he would be done in no time, but he was unaware that the Tract of Gactimus had 313 separate tracts that made up the entire saga. When Fanaso later retold his story to Janzel Helot, he explained that, by his best estimates, his devotion-time had lasted more than 37,000,000 seconds, or four years, fifty-six days, and seven hours on Triton Besh. He might have finished earlier, but the insects kept correcting his intonation and pronunciation. He also estimated that he had spent some thirty-three days using the 'fresher during his time on Triton Besh. His efforts were later chronicled in the Strange Sights Along the Spaceways guidebook, which ended being something of a boon because travelers to Triton Besh began tipping him for the "entertainment". After paying off his debts, Fanaso was free to leave. Along with the credits he had earned in tips, the insects gave him a newly-printed set of the complete Tract of Gactimus for further study. This was only one of nine such copies ever produced in the galaxy, and Fanaso later sold it to a Herglic merchant - one of the first beings to tip him for his recitations - for a million credits. Most of these credits had helped to pay off the Shandy's Pleasure Palace, while the rest had gone into the One Too Many. (OWS)

She accompanied them to Mining Station Alpha as part of her own, self-imposed punishment, and was taken aback to learn that the tomb which held the entity known as Spore had been opened. She destroyed the mining outpost in an effort to kill Spore, but the entity had already infected Hodge. They escaped to Ithor, but Spore attacked as soon as they were on the ground. She later revealed to Tash Arranda that she was the individual who told the Empire about Spore's existence, and that was why she made regular runs to Mining Station Alpha. (TME, GOF9)

Fangballs were essentially masses of thorny vines that could roll along the ground in search of water and food. Fangballs were one of the many predatory species of plants found on the planetoid, which was the home of the Force presence known as Abeloth. When Abeloth was present, however, the fangballs and other dangerous plants were quelled into a state of non-activity, and would not attack anything that came near them. (FJ3)

Fangol
This small, frozen world was located in Mortex Sector, and was the site of a hidden Alliance base. The base housed the sector's headquarters deep in the icy crust of the planet. The planet was continually shrouded in a white, icy mist that was formed from the ejecta of hundreds of icy volcanoes. The mists reflected all light from space, making the planet appear to be a solid ball of white. The mists also disrupted communications, so the Alliance established a listening post on the planet's only moon. The mists themselves were poisonous to breathe, being laden with sulfur and other chemicals from the volcanoes. The Alliance brought the captured Black Ice to Fangol, unaware that the Empire had placed a homing beacon on the ship. The Alliance was forced to evacuate the base, but Lawra Mers proposed using the Black Ice to ram the torpedo sphere sent to wipe out the base. The plan succeeded, giving the Alliance an oppportunity to safely evacuate the base. (BI)

Far Distance
This northern polar region was one of the many Ferroan settlements on the planet Zonama Sekot. Potential buyers of Sekotan starships were brought to the Far Distance in order to be united with seed-partners. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Zonama Sekot made a blind jump into hyperspace to avoid the sabotage of Nom Anor. The Ferroans were forced to flee underground to avoid the ecological damage that occurred on the surface. The planet's travels brought it extremely close to several stars, and this proximity to stellar heat made the Far Distance fracture and melt away. (RP, UF)

Far Orbit
This Nebulon-B frigate was under Imperial control until one of its commanders, Dhas Vedij, staged a mutiny and took control of the ship from Captain Kenit. Vedij then provided his assistance to the Alliance, and used the Far Orbit to launch privateer raids on near-Core systems during the Galactic Civil War. (RASB, FOP)

Far Orbit Project
This Alliance operation was based on a series of ideas and proposals from Ral'Rai Muvunc, and involved using privateers to harass Imperial patrols and obtain supplies for the Alliance. The Alliance contracted the services of Dhas Vedij and the Far Orbit to raid Imperial worlds and convoys in the Ringali Shell shortly after the Battle of Yavin. The project was considered by many to be a success, as Vedij and his crew single-handedly captured Imperial Advisor Coh Veshiv, obtained a wealth of Imperial and corporate cargoes, and pirated a huge cache of gems, spice, and artworks from the Star Galleon Emperor's Will. All profits were split evenly between the Alliance and the crew of the Far Orbit. (FOP)

Far Outsiders
This was the Ferroan name for the Yuuzhan Vong, although the term found meaning among the Chiss as well, and was used by Darth Sidious to describe the growing threat of the Yuuzhan Vong. Unknown to most historians, the extragalactic alien race had made its first foray into the known galaxy when it attacked the planet Zonama Sekot shortly after the Battle of Naboo. The Jedi Knight Vergere, on Zonama Sekot to secure a Sekotan starship, discovered that the Far Outsiders seemed to have no connection to the Force. Despite the fact that the Far Outsiders flew in starships which were organic in nature and similar to Sekotan starships, the planet rejected them, as did the Magister.

The Far Outsiders retaliated by attacking the planet from orbit, leaving much of the southern hemisphere in ruins. However, Zonama Sekot managed to recover and fought back against the Yuuzhan Vong, with the help of Vergere. Vergere then gave herself up to the Far Outsiders, in an effort to stop the bombardment. The Far Outsiders agreed to Vergere's plan, and left the planet with her. A year later, Zonama Sekot was attacked by Wilhuff Tarkin, and Sekot armed the planet's huge hyperdrives and took it into hyperspace. Thus, all contact with the Far Outsiders and Vergere was lost for many years. However, Darth Sidious was able to sense the approach of the Far Outsiders, well before any of the Jedi recognized it. It was his fear of their strength that led Sidious to devise a plan to eliminate the Outbound Flight project, as he feared that any contact between the Far Outsiders and the Jedi Knights would precipitate a galaxy-wide war. (RP, DW, OF, EGF)

Far Qasqi

Far Ranger
This modified freighter was owned and operated by Drach Coven and his crew, during the final years of the Old Republic. The Far Ranger was impounded by Haninum Tyk Rhinann when he double-crossed Coven, after hiring him to capture Nick Rostu. Rhinann later turned control of the ship over to Rostu, so that the Korunnai could carry out his search for Jax Pavan. Rostu discovered that the ship's previous owners had made extensive modifications to the sensor systems and the defenses, and both the sublight engines and the hyperdrive had been significantly upgraded. After locating Jax in the Factory District, Nick was badly injured in a fight with Prince Xizor. Jax and his companions recovered Nick's body and fled aboard the Far Ranger, escaping the grasp of Darth Vader himself. Jax assumed ownership of the vessel, and used to move his friends to and from their various assignments on Coruscant. (CN1, CN2)

Far Thunder
This Republic-class cruiser was part of the New Republic Navy task force assigned to Keyan Farlander, during the destruction of Komm Karsh's fleet near Obroa-skai. In the fighting, the Far Thunder took heavy damage to her hyperdrives. Captain Hannser argued to have the Far Thunder repaired, and General Farlander eventually assented. It limped away with an escort, and was scheduled for repair when the Yuuzhan Vong discovered its location. The crew was evacuated to the Whip Hand, which then fired on the Far Thunder and destroyed it, leaving nothing for the Yuuzhan Vong to recover. (DW)

Located in the Rolion Sector, this area of the galaxy was the site of an Imperial base, during the era of the Galactic Civil War. One of 752 bases in the the sector, the Fara's Belt installation was known to the Alliance by the codename Understar. The Alliance hoped to attack the Fara's Belt base and make off before the Imperial knew what happened, but Major Herrit had learned of the Alliance's plans by planting false information about a malfunction at the base. Thus, the Imperial forces in Fara's Belt were fully aware of the impending attack.

General Dodonna, who was placed in charge of the B-Wing attack, found his forces immediately surrounded when they launched their attack, and the rebel ships were decimated by TIE Fighters. Dodonna himself only barely escaped the mission, and returned to Alliance headquarters with news of Herrit's ingenuity. (RASB, OWS)

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

Farege, Wertram
This lithe, wily man was full of false bravado and swagger, but was really a coward at heart. Farege was also a double agent who worked with both the New Republic and the Iskalloni who tried to gain control of the galaxy. He tried to contract a group of Republic agents to transport droids, and during the trip he sabotaged their ship. He then planned to deliver the ship to the Iskalloni, so that they could raid its databanks of the locations of New Republic worlds. The Iskalloni could then move in and enslave the worlds, after enslaving the agents. However, Farege was double-crossed by the Iskalloni, which enslaved him as soon as they found the New Republic ship. Seeing that he had been used, Farege resisted long enough to warn the agents of the impending Iskalloni attack. He was later rescued by the agents, and the Iskalloni mutagen was removed from his system. (TSK)

Farel, Quintus
This infant was born in the city of Sath, on the planet Samaria, some twenty-three years before the onset of the Clone Wars. Unfortunately for his parents, Quintus died at the age of two. Twenty-five years later, however, it appeared that Quintus had been resurrected, as his name started showing up on vehicle purchase requests in the city. When Ferus Olin was dispatched to Samaria to investigate the city-wide computer virus that was disrupting daily life, he discovered the anomaly in Quintus' life, and quickly realized that the true criminal had stolen the infant's identity to cover their own. Ferus' investigation led to the discovery that it had been Astri Oddo, with assistance from Samarian Prime Minister Aaren Larker, who had adopted the alias of Quintus Farel in order to inject the computer virus into the Platform-7 system. Their plan was to disrupt operations in Sath long enough for the Sathans to mount an organized resistance to Imperial control, as wll as to allow Astri and her son, Lune, to escape from Bog Divinian. (LJ5)

Farewell Ceremony
This was the Basic translation of the Baran Do ritual in which an individual died. Unlike other cultures, in which death was something that was feared, the Kel Dor "accepted death" as a natural progression of life. When it was time for an individual to pass on into the next life, they simply accepted death, knowing that their physical body would cease to function, but that their spirit would live on in the Force. When an individual was ready, they would gather their friends and family together, and after a brief speech, would lay down on a raised platform and allow their body to stop working. Once the body had died, close friends would set the platform on fire, honoring the dead individual by cremating the body. This was a sign of great respect among the Kel Dor, since there was very little oxygen in the atmosphere of their homeworld, Dorin. (FJ1)

Farex
this was a common name among the Toydarian race. (WOTC, UANT)

Fa'Rey
This legendary being was a naval Admiral, until his fleet mysteriously disappeared. Many an independent spacer plying the Daragon Trail claimed to have seen the ghostly apparation of Fa'Rey's flagship, although no evidence of the ghost ship was ever recovered. (DW)

Farfalla, Valenthyne
This elfin man, distinguished by his golden tresses and elaborate wardrobe, was a noted Jedi Knight whose forces were sent to augment those of Lord Hoth in preparation for the Battle of Ruusan. Like his father before him, Farfalla was a noble who joined the Jedi Knights after being recruited by Master Pernicar's father. Because of his well-manicured appearance and his galleon-like starship, Lord Farfalla was not known as a military threat, and even Lord Hoth despaired upon learning that the future of the Jedi might depend on Farfalla's forces. It was even rumored that Farfalla had been a candidate to take over the position of Supreme Chancellor of the Old Republic, but he had turned the role down to join the Army of Light. Despite his reputation, it was Farfalla who warned Lord Kiel Charny of Githany's impending defection to the Dark Side, saving the Jedi Knight from death.

Farfalla later saved Charny again, at Ruusan, riding his golden warship into battle of defeat the attacking Sith. His arrival was not welcomed by Lord Hoth, however, who believed Farfalla to be a foppish coward. Hoth even went so far as to scoff at Farfalla's plans to leave Ruusan and return with more men, whom he believed he could recruit without question. Although Farfalla was much younger, he questioned Hoth's motives for continuing to fight on Ruusan, wondering if the conflict had become a personal vendetta. Hoth allowed him to leave, believing that Farfalla would fail. Nevertheless, Farfalla managed to return with the men he promised, but was unable to land them due to the Sith blockade of the system. After Darth Bane coerced the Sith commandered to break off the blockade, Farfalla made a desparate run to the surface of Ruusan, and delivered reinforcements to Hoth's army.

After joining the fighting, Farfalla found himself meeting with the Sith Lord Kopecz, who had fought through the Jedi lines to find the Jedi Master. Kopecz delivered a warning about Kaan's impending use of a thought bomb, then demanded that Farfalla engage him in one-on-one combat. Although Farfalla recognized that Kopecz was injured, he nonetheless nobly accepted the challenge. Kopecz fought valiantly, but was no match for Farfalla's blade. After dispatching the Sith Lord and returning to the main Jedi camp, Farfalla delivered Kopecz's warning. Hoth then ordered Farfalla and his forces to leave Ruusan as soon as possible, so that they could escape certain death. Farfalla set about organizing the evacuation of the Jedi forces, taking as many Jedi as he could aboard his warship, the Fairwind, and coordinating the rescue efforts of other vessels.

In the wake of the detonation of the thought bomb on the surface of Ruusan, Lord Valenthyne found himself elevated to a position of leadership, taking over the Jedi forces after the death of Lord Hoth. He put together several recovery parties, none of which contained Force-sensitive individuals, to return to the planet's surface and search for survivors. He chose beings with no connection to the Force, since they would be immune to any after-effects from the thought bomb. He was dismayed when Othone used the Force to coerce one of the recovery crews to allow him to join, and he refused to believe Othone's claim that a Sith Lord had survived the battle.

It was during the rescue and recovery operation that Farfalla was recalled to Coruscant to meet with the Supreme Chancellor. He ordered Johun Othone to accompany him, stating that the young man could not be trusted in his absence. Farfalla then took over Othone's training, hoping to help the young man reach his potential. His training started almost immediately, as Othone was introduced to Tarsus Valorum and the rationale behind the Ruusan Reformation. Othone opposed the idea of placing the Jedi Order under the control of the Judicial Department of the Galactic Senate, but his primary objection was that it didn't seem like the right thing to do. Farfalla explained that Othone had been trained during a time of war, and that the Jedi had been required to be independent in order to combat the Sith. Now that peace was at hand, the Jedi needed to become guardians of that peace, rather than warriors in search of it.

Farfalla later approached Othone with a new mission, to serve as the Jedi representative on Valorum's personal guard. When he agreed, Farfalla also explained that Othone had been promoted to the level of Jedi Knight. Over the following years, Farfalla continued to work with his student, but was taken aback when Othone returned to Coruscant and claimed that he had found evidence of a Sith Lord having survived the Battle of Ruusan. He agreed to meet with Darovit, but never got the chance because he was spirited away by Zannah, the young woman who was Darth Bane's apprentice. Lord Farfalla finally believed Othone's claims when they discovered that Zannah was on her way to Tython, and put together a small task force to track her down. Along with Othone, Farfalla was accompanied by Master Worror and Master Raskta Lsu and her student, Sarro Xaj.

Upon arriving at Tython, they followed Darth Bane's apprentice into the fortress of Belia Darzu, where they split into groups. Othone and Xaj attacked Zannah, while the Masters confronted Darth Bane, with Master Worror providing the battle meditation that provided the group with strength and coordination. While Zannah defeated Xaj, the surviving Jedi tried to find a way to get behind Bane's defenses. It was Othone who discovered a gap in his orbalisk armor, but the young man's attack only forced the Sith Lord out of the battle for a brief instant. Zannah then struck down Master Raskta, and Bane injured Othone, forcing Farfalla to defend both himself and Master Worror. Bane wasted no time in beheading Master Farfalla before attacking Master Worror. (JVS, NECH, DBPD, DBRT)

Fargane
This Ansionian was a member of the Unity of Community, during the months leading up to Ansion's vote to secede from the Old Republic. A native of the Hurkaset province, Fargane was the tallest and most educated of the four Ansionians who served the Unity, and was one of the members who didn't want to see Ansion remain with the Republic. He hated the fact that the Jedi Knights had been dispatched to Ansion to negotiate a treaty among the Ansionians, and resented the fact that the Jedi were given unlimited time in which to do so. Despite his misgivings, he was among the nine members of the Unity to vote in favor of Ansion remaining with the Old Republic, shortly before the Clone Wars. (APS)

Farghul
This was the native language of the Farghul people. (ANT)

Farghul
This was the native sentient species found on the planet Farrfin. They were a felinoid race, covered in tawny fur and having prehensile tails. They were fearsome fighters and cunning thieves, although they were particularly intimidated by the Jedi Knights after the Jedi of the Old Republic tried to wipe out the smuggling bases on Farrfin. Farghuls were also distrustful of most politicians, and tend to be slightly xenophobic. However, among themselves or with friends, the Farghul were known to be mischievous and playful, telling bad jokes and rigging games of chance to their own benefit. Despite the fact that any Farghul who was caught cheating immediately turned over their illicit winnings and began to describe their con, most other beings in the galaxy considered them con artists and thieves. (LCSB, TTSB, UANT)

Fargil, Quip
This man was a good friend and part-time employer of Zenn Bien, during the early years of the New Order. Known for his love of joyriding, Fargil was believed to have been born on Denon, just prior to the Battle of Naboo. During the early years of the New Order, he worked from a base on Tuerto, and had hired Zenn Bien to steal a couple of starships for him to resell. When he asked her to steal a third ship from an Imperial impound facility in the Nilash System, Zenn Bien was surprised to learn that Fargil had been planning the theft for months. He had a contact in the Imperial forces on Nilash III, and they planned to cut up the aging YT-1300 and sell it for parts. They managed to steal the ship with a minimum of effort, then traveled to Sriluur to deliver it to Fargil's fence, a Verpine named Luufkin. Luufkin provided them with a new identity for the ship, the Gone to Pieces, and arranged for them to transport the ship to buyers in the Tungra Sector. However, they were dragged out of hyperspace by an Imperial Interdictor cruiser near Lutrillia, and the ship was damaged. When the Imperials decided to let them go, Fargil used a bribe of brandy and tabac to convince them to let he and his crew repair the ship before leaving the system.

It was then that Fargil revealed to Zenn Bien that he and Luufkin were secretly working for the growing rebellion against the Empire, and that being intercepted by the Imperials had been part of their plan to steal the Interdictor's technology. Zenn Bien agreed to help the rebels by creating a schematic of the Interdictor, and later joined the Alliance with Fargil. Although she believed that Fargil had kept the Gone to Pieces, that ship was supposedly destroyed years later at the First Battle of Bilbringi. In reality, Fargil had turned the ship over to Doctor Parlay Thorp shortly afterward, knowing that the ship would be of more use to her. It was Fargil who changed the ship's name to the Millennium Falcon, claiming that it was as "fast as a bat-falcon, and resilient enough to last a millennium". He also changed his own name to Vec Minim, for reasons of his own, and settled on the planet Vaced. He was surprised when, several years later, Tobb Jadak and Flitcher Poste discovered his whereabouts, and asked if they could interview him about the Millennium Falcon as part of a story they were working on for the Coruscant Journal. Fargil kept up the Vec Minim alias, but was surprised when Jadak and Poste revealed that they were not on Vaced with the current owners of the ship, Han and Leia Solo. It was Poste's turn to be surprised then, because he knew who Han Solo was, while Jadak had been in a coma for most of Solo's storied career. (MF)

Farglblag, Dagga
This was the alias assumed by Dagga Marl, given to her by Thrackan Sal-Solo when they were intercepted by New Republic forces which had retaken the planet Ylesia from the Peace Brigade.

Farland
This man served as the commanding officer of the Alliance's Eyrie Base during the height of the Galactic Civil War. At the time, he held the rank of Colonel. He made the rest of the base very happy when he finally managed to ship Commander Biros Baran off to a desk job on an Alliance safeworld. (SWJ10)

Farlander, Keyan
Keyan Farlander grew up on Agamar, during the height of the New Order. Like most of his friends, he dreamed of flying starships for the Empire, although he was indifferent to the ways of the galactic government. That all changed when the Empire destroyed his hometown of Tondatha. His parent were killed in the attack, and his sister only barely survived. Keyan sent her to Oorn Tchis to recover with family, but he himself remained behind to help rebuild. He labored for three months until Mon Mothma came to the planet to gain underground support for the Alliance. Farlander received a copy of the A Call to Reason pamphlet from Lynia Delline during the rally, and it turned his mind toward the Alliance. He joined up on the spot, and decided the he wanted to be a starfighter pilot. As an untrained Alliance starpilot, Farlander participated in the raid on the Imperial Talon as his first mission, during which he helped recover important Imperial documents by disabling the Imperial shuttle near Turkana. This earned him a promotion to Lieutenant, and he was promoted to Captain shortly after rescuing several groups of Sullustan prisoners. He proved his incredible piloting skills there as well, and went on to become one of the Alliance's premier pilots.

He was instrumental in raids on a number of Imperial outposts, but the loss of wingmen in battles became a concern for both Keyan and his superior officers. Although he was successful, Keyan was also reckless, and sometimes took risks that otherwise could have been avoided. It was during this time that he was reunited with Lynia, who had helped to recruit him on Agamar. He also got another chance to speak with Mon Mothma, who recognized that he had a connection to the Force, and urged him to find someone who could teach him more about it. Keyan was added to the team that fled to Yavin 4 to prepare for battle against the Death Star. While on Yavin 4, Keyan helped familiarize Luke Skywalker on the controls of the X-Wing. He was one of the few survivors of the Battle of Yavin, piloting a Y-Wing during the fighting and fleeing the destruction of the first Death Star with Skywalker, Wedge Antilles, and the Millennium Falcon. Keyan continued to serve the Alliance, and later the New Republic, as a military officer and advisor. Because of his uncanny skills, Keyan was tested by Luke Skywalker for a connection to the Force, which revealed that Keyan was possible Jedi material. He trained for many years at the Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4, and eventually earned the rank of Jedi Knight. By the time of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Farlander had been promoted to General. He served under Admiral Traest Kre'fey aboard the Ralroost during the period following the Second Battle of Coruscant, working to implement the plans of Admirals Sovv, Ackbar, and Kre'fey. (XW, XWP, Y, SWI63, UF)

Farlander, Kitha
A native of the planet Agamar, Kitha was Keyan Farlander's sister. She was in Tondatha when the Empire invaded the town, and was severely burned.

Rather than falling into despair, Farnmir used her skills in law enforcement to forge a new career as a bounty hunter. She took on Cian Shee as a partner, and the pair was distinguished for their capture of Scri Oscuro. Their work brought them to Coruscant just prior to the Battle of Geonosis, where Farnmir found herself pursued by Oscuro's Zealots of Psusan. When she learned from Nyrat Agira that she had been sold out by Cian Shee, Farnmir decided to end their relationship. She confronted her former friend just after Obi-Wan Kenobi apprehended Zam Wesell, but Cian managed to escape. In the wake of the Clone Wars, Farnmir sided with the Alliance, until she discovered that the Empire had put a bounty on her head. What was more, Cian Shee had taken the bounty and was tracking her.

Faron was the only member of the team to survive an attack by Lumiya, and he was held prisoner to ensure that Luke Skywalker traveled to Kinooine to re-establish contact with the team. He was kept alive even after Luke and Dani were captured, when he surrendered to Lumiya and agreed to join her cause. He and Dani were turned over to Den Siva, when Lumiya set out to meet the Nagai invasion force. However, Faron was merely holding out for more time to try and escape. When Den Siva was distracted with his interrogation of Dani, Faron grabbed a weapon and tried to strike at Den Siva. The Nagai warrior sensed his attack, and blaster Faron in the chest. Faron died instantly. (MC95, MC97)

Farool, Braig
This overweight, balding human was the planetary Governor and Chief Administrator of TransGalMeg Industries, Incorporated, on the planet Narg. Slightly overweight and balding Braig Farool lived the easy life after climbing to the top of TGM's corporate structure. He always dressed well, and meticulously groomed what little hair had left. Braig once tried to expand his horizons by capturing the Shashay space singer known as Crying Dawn Sunger, hoping to break the fragile alliance between the Shashay and the Alliance itself. The plan, implemented with information gathered by his brother, Nak, involved blaming the Alliance for the kidnapping of Crying Dawn Singer. However, Braig's ambitions went beyond this simple plan. He also prepared false holovids which he hoped would discredit Rayter Sector's Moff, Nile Owen, and place Braig himself into the office. However, Moff Owen discovered Nak's part in the plan, and executed him. Shortly afterward, Braig went mad. A group of Alliance agents were able to intercept Braig before Owen got to him, and tried take him prisoner while rescuing Crying Dawn Singer. Although the Shashay was successfully recovered, it was unknown if Braig Farool survived the Alliance's rescue, or the wrath of Nile Owen, following the exposure of Farool's plans. (TA)

Farool, Nak
Braig Farool's younger brother, Nak was a special assistant to Rayter Sector's Moff Nile Owen during the Galactic Civil War. In this position, he learned that the Alliance was attempting to form a mutual support pact with the Shashay, and that an Alliance agent was travelling with the Shashay space singer, Crying Dawn Singer. Nak forwarded this information to his brother, and together they devised a plot to discredit the Alliance and bring favor upon themselves from Moff Owen. However, Braig aspired to more than just simple recognition from the Moff, and tried to discredit the Moff himself. A further plan was devised, with a holo-transmission showing Nak publicly proclaiming Owen's lack of feeling for the Shashay. Owen intercepted the transmission, and executed Nak for his part in the plan. (TA)

Farquar III
This planet allied with the Confederacy of Independent Systems, during the era of the Clone Wars.

Farr
Meaning "keen-eyed", 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)

Farr, Jastus
This hulking, blue-skinned Houk was one of the handful of Jedi Knights and Masters who survived the Jedi Purge and regrouped on Kessel, in the wake of the Clone Wars. Farr was unusual among the Jedi in that he used a double-bladed lightsaber. The surviving Jedi answered the call of Master Shadday, who hoped to gather the Jedi and determine a way to fight back against the oppression of Darth Sidious and his new apprentice, Darth Vader. Unknown to Farr and his comrades, Master Shadday had leaked information that Obi-Wan Kenobi would be among the Jedi meeting on Kessel, in an effort to lure Vader into a trap. The plan failed, however, when Vader arrived and proved to be more than a match for the assembled Jedi. Shadday was killed in the early fighting, before the clone troopers of the 501st Legion arrived on the scene. Farr fled into the mines with Roblio Darte' and Tsui Choi, but Vader apprehended them. As the Sith Lord grabbed Tsui Choi with the Force, the clone troopers shot and killed Darte' and Farr before they could respond. (SWP)

Farr, Needo
This Rodian youth was ten years old at the time of the Clone Wars. Needo had been a member of the Legislative Youth Program's mock vote on the Military Creation Act, siding with those junior senators who voted in favor of the formation of the Army of the Republic. (HNN5)

Farr, Onaconda
This Rodian represented his homeworld of Rodia in the Old Republic Senate, earning his position some thirty years before the onset of the Clone Wars. It was Senator Farr who first accused the upper echelons of the Galactic Senate of conspiring with the Separatists, an accusation which led to the arrest of Yir Tangee Senator Havriso Looruya. Senator Farr claimed to have evidence of more than 240 Senators and Judicial officials who were connected to the Separatist movement. In the wake of Senator Looruya's censure, Senator Farr was named to the membership of the Loyalist Committee in his stead, shortly after the death of his brother and sister-in-law in a house fire.

He was named the head of the action subcommittee tasked with defending the Corellian Trade Spine, but his efforts proved worthless in the face of an all-out assault led by General Grievous. Amid public and political outcry, Senator Farr resigned as the head of the subcommittee. However, Senator Farr was blamed - along with Senator Ronet Coorr - for the loss of the planet Duro and its shipyards to the Separatist forces under General Grievous, during the height of the Clone Wars. Investigation by the Senate Bureau of Intelligence discovered that warships had been dispatched from Iseno to protect Duro, but had been rerouted to protect Rodia instead. Initial thoughts were that the rerouting was a mistake, but the investigation clearly pointed to Senator Farr's role in trying to protect his homeworld. Senator Coor was forced to resign amidst the scandal, tendering his resignation and returning to Iseno in shame.

Senator Farr tried to remain loyal to the Galactic Republic, but the growing poverty on his homeworld was becoming worse, and no Republic aid was in sight. Because of the war, Rodia experienced a widespread shortage for food and supplies, and many Rodians were starving. Instead of petitioning further, Senator Farr struck a deal with Nute Gunray, obtaining valuable supplies and food for the Rodians. Unknown to Padme' was the fact that, for his part in the deal, Senator Farr - a being she referred to as Uncle Ono - had been planning to allow Nute Gunray capture Padme' when she arrived on Rodia. Senator Farr had hoped to ensure Padme' survived the attack through Senatorial negotiations with the Separatists, but Gunray had plans of his own. When he revealed that Padme' was to be executed, Senator Farr realized that the Separatists were unworthy of his loyalty, no matter what the cost might be to the Rodian people. With Jar Jar Binks posing as a Jedi Knight, Padme' eventually escaped, leaving Gunray once again without his revenge. When the confronted Gunray and Senator Farr, Padme' realized that her old friend had been in a bad position, and covered up the situation by explaining that Senator Farr had never planned to join the Separatists. In this way, he was able to trick Gunray into traveling to Rodia and being captured. In the wake of Gunray's arrest, Senator Farr received a communication from Chancellor Palpatine himself, who pledged to send aid Rodia immediately.

With the situation on Rodia resolved, at least for the immediate future, Senator Farr returned to Coruscant, where he continued to speak out against the Republic's continued involvement in the Clone Wars. However, more and more Senators were debating in favor of increasing clone trooper production, believing that more troops would help end the war sooner. Farr and other like-minded Senators, including Padme' and Lolo Purs, argued that creating more troopers would only incite the Separatists and prolong the war, which was already taking a heavy toll on the Republic. A particularly heated debate in the Senate managed to swing enough votes in their favor, putting a temporary halt to clone production, despite the testimony of Senator Halle Burtoni of Kamino. At a meeting following the vote, Senator Burtoni accused Farr and his comrades of being allied with the Separatists because of their anti-war stance. Senator Farr politely asked her to leave, but fell ill shortly afterward. Within minutes, Senator Farr experienced pain in his chest and heart, and died before any medical assistance could be found. A state funeral was held to honor his work, but the circumstances of his death prompted an investigation by the Senate Guard, who believed that Senator Farr had been murdered. (SWDB, HNN5, OWS, SWI75, SWI76, CWVG, CWTV08, CWTV37)

FarStar
This modified CR-90 corvette was dispatched by the New Republic, under the command of Kaiya Adrimetrum, to locate Moff Sarne in the Kathol Sector and neutralize him. It had been originally purchased by the Chandrilan government and commissioned as the Freedom's Messenger, but suffered major damage during the Battle of Ord Torrenze and was scrapped. The Empire rebuilt the ship, naming it the Renegade and placing it in the 15th Deep Core Reserve Fleet under the command of Kentor Sarne. When Sarne fled to Kal'Shebbol in the wake of the Battle of Endor, he took the Renegade with him and began refitting the ship for future use with the DarkStryder technology. When Page's Commandos assaulted Kal'Shebbol and drove off Sarne, the Renegade was liberated from the fleet and outfitted to chase after Sarne. Newly renamed the FarStar, it was crewed with a variety of volunteers and available Republic personal, since the rest of the Republic's fleet was spread too thin trying to eliminate pockets of Imperial resistance. It was originally commanded by Keleman Ciro, until he was captured by Sarne and imprisoned on Q'Maere. The ship was described by its engineering crew as a collection of bailing wire and Spatch-Coat, and was always in a state of repair. The starboard side of the ship had been modifed to accept a docking area for use with Imperial TIE Inerceptors, and the New Republic used it to house several X-Wings and Defender starfighters. The hangar and docking bay gave the ship a lopsided appearance. The FarStar was armed with six double turbolaser cannons, each of which was equipped with "predict and pinpoint" targetting systems. The Republic's gunners had trouble adjusting to the experimental Imperial technology, and often turned it off. In addition to her crew of 120 officers and ten gunners, the FarStar was given over a hundred droids to complete her crew complement, including a variety of astromechs, security droids, and labor automata. Unknown to the New Republic at the time of the assault on Kal'Shebbol, the FarStar had also been equipped with Sarne's Deeplink system, which allowed Sarne to track the ship's position whenever it was in realspace. Shortly after leaving Demonsgate, the FarStar was disabled by a series of shockwaves when the Eradicator was destroyed by a lightstorm at the edge of the Kathol Rift. The ship managed to reach Kathol - the "DarkStryder Planet" - and was able to take the fight to the Imperial warships in orbit around the planet. However, as the Imperial forces were augmented by reinforcements, the FarStar took heavy damage, and Captain Adrimetrum was forced to abandon the ship. After the crew was able to evacuate, the FarStar crashed into Kathol and exploded in a fireball. Luckily for the forces of the New Republic, the FarStar destroyed the Imperial garrison on Kathol, eliminating the forces Moff Sarne had kept on the planet. (DARK, KO, KR, E)

Ganton knew that Tavier was seriously injured, and hoped to at least demean Tavier if he refused. Tavier, however, accepted, and chose Aul Tarrus Vishav as his Guardian. Ganton, however, had planned to win the fight, and brought three of his own Guardians to the challenge. Ganton had made sure that the Succession Judge was a personal friend, which allowed him to bring in his three Guardians despite Tarrus' protests. In an amazing upset, though, Tarrus defeated the other three Guardians while Tavier managed to kill Ganton in comabt. To ensure that there would be no further treachery, Tarrus also executed the Succession Judge. (AIR)

He claimed to have been a gunner onboard the Tantive IV during Princess Leia Organa's attempt to reach Obi-Wan Kenobi on Tatooine, as well as one of the ion cannon operators at the Alliance's Echo Base on Hoth. In reality, "Pot-Shot" was little more than a loud-mouthed, average gunner who worked with a group of privateers until they stranded him on Kal'Shebbol. Edly was chosen as a gunner for the FarStar when the New Republic set out to capture Imperial Moff Kentor Sarne, but his crewmates hated every minute of it. (DARK)

He gave them information which led them to Big Bunji's offices on the Jubilee Wheel, near Ord Mantell. When the Yuuzhan Vong attacked the Wheel, Fasgo was one of the multitude of beings who was sucked into a Vong ship. Fasgo and Roa were both placed aboard the Creche', as part of a group of prisoners who were to nourish a young yammosk. Unfortunately for Fasgo, the plans of Wurth Skidder to confuse the yammoks caused the creature to go briefly insane, and Fasgo was killed when the yammosk struck him with a tentacle and shattered his skull.

Faskus
This man was believed to have stolen the Amulet of Kalara from the officers of Stonias Leem, on the moon Drewwa, sometime prior to the onset of the Corellia-GA War. A thin man whose curling mustache only served to emphasize the weakness of his chin, Faskus dressed to blend into a crowd. It was believed that he fled back to his homeworld of Ziost with the artifact, but his YT-2400 freighter was shot down upon reaching the system and he was forced to crash-land the ship in Ziost.

When Ben Skywalker found him on Ziost, Faskus had suffered a fatal injury to his abdomen, and had lost too much blood to survive. He managed to set the record straight, however, explaining to Skywalker that he was not a thief, but a courier who was native to Almania. He had not stolen the Amulet, but had received it from Byalfin Dyur, who gave him the order to travel to Ziost and place the Amulet in a cave. After arriving on Ziost, Faskus' starship, the Blacktooth, was destroyed by a TIE Fighter as it sat on the ground, preventing his escape.

Compounding his problems was the fact that Faskus had been traveling with his daughter, Kiara. When he heard the TIE Figher, Faskus tried to return to his ship, managing to rescue Kiara before the enemy fighter destroyed his ship. The explosion caused a piece of debris to pierce his stomach area, resulting in a wound would not have been fatal in most situations. However, there were no hospitals or medical facilities on Ziost, and Faskus was forced to deal with the pain as best he could.

Skywalker was unable to do anything for the wound, and Faskus resigned himself to his death. He asked Skywalker to take care of Kiara, then died of his injuries. (LF4)

Fass, Baddon
One of the Emperor Palpatine's Dark Side Elite, Fass was activated by Operation Shadow Hand. Sedriss commissioned Fass and Zasm Katth to perform a number of activities on Nar Shaddaa. First, they were to enlist the aid of Boba Fett in tracking down the Millennium Falcon. Second, they were to hunt down and destroy Vima-Da-Boda. Third, they were to report on the Millennium Falcon's whereabouts so that Sedriss could capture it. Katth and Fass, both grizzled veterans of Palpatine's rule, failed on all counts, as Boba Fett escaped them, and they were both unable to capture the MillenniumFalcon. Fass perished aboard his Star Destroyer Invincible when it mistakenly locked onto Nar Shaddaa's control tower with its tractor beam. The collision destroyed the capital ship and all its crew. (DE2)

For his part in the brawl, and the fight which occurred between himself and Ker-Zakk during their arraignment, Fass spent many years in prison. After his release, he was hired by J'uoch and R'all. Fass was killed by Chewbacca in a hand-to-hand battle at J'uoch's mining camp, during the search for the Queen of Ranroon, several years before the Battle of Yavin. (HSL, GG12, HNN4)

They assumed these identies in order to infitlrate Prince-Admiral Krennel's forces shortly after the Battle of Bilbringi. Roat, played by Wedge Antilles, explained that Requiem Squadron was charged with finding the best TIE Defender pilots it could, which was why a woman held a position in the squadron. (IR)

She was sent with Rep Teers to oversee the construction of the arena in Lake Umberbool, being built for the Festival of Warriors. However, an accident led to the collapse of much of the arena. Fassa was caught in the accident, but was rescued from by Jar Jar Binks, who was trying to save Boss Nass and Commander Wollod. She indebted herself to him as a way to repay his bravery. However, Jar Jar tried to explain to her that he didn't deserve the life-debt, though Fassa couldn't understand why. Luckily for them both, the life debt was revoked on a technicality. Shortly before the Battle of Naboo, Fassa entered the Big Nasty Free-For-All. Despite stiff competition from Captain Tarpals, Boss Nass, and Jar Jar himself, Fassa won the contest.

Fast Death
This was one of the many Nargi-class pursuit frigates that were part of the Galactic City Air Traffic Control fleet, during the years that followed the Swarm War. Some two years after the end of the Second Galactic Civil War, the Fast Death was one of the ships that were dispatched to intercept the freighter Longshot when it tried to cause trouble above Coruscant.

He was the decendant of a noted clan of healers, and made use of his own healing skills with the Desert Wind for many years. Under Thak Val Zsing' leadership, Brother Fate was often the individual who tested a new recruit's loyalty and desire to join the terrorists. He was in charge of maintaining the basket of dashta eels - known as The Guides - for testing new members. Brother Fate was among the many Cestians who settled in the Zantay Hills, where fertile land was abundant. After Desert Wind was infiltrated by JK-series combat droids, he took as many refugees as he could and fled to the Zantay area, where he hoped the terrorists could regroup. At Zantay, Brother Fate did what he could to help heal the wounds sustained by the ARC trooper known as Jangotat in the raid, but had to leave much of the healing up to Jangotat himself. (TCD)

However, despite his size and fearsome appearance, Bhu Fath commanded none of the respect that had once been given to Malik Carr. Many Yuuzhan Vong leaders believed that Bhu Fath's escalation was more a product of the petitioning of Domain Fath than any reflection on his own abilities. (UF)

When they met up with Marn Hierogryph, who was pretending to be a supplier of rare artwork, Master Obohn couldn't help but notice the resemblance between the Snivvian's assistant, Wervis, and the wanted Jedi Padawan, Zayne Carrick. The Snivvian laughed this off, then presented Master Obohn with what he claimed were artworks created by Ineas Tikartine. Master Obohn refused to take the Snivvian's word on the authenticity of the artworks, demanding that they be authenticated. Zayne stepped in and, using the persuasion of the Force, convinced both Master Obohn and Father that the artworks were authentic, even though they were actually little more than scrap metal. (LPSS)

Fawn, Arrisa
This woman was one of the few female officer in the Imperial military, although she never got promoted beyond the rank of Lieutenant. She had hoped to make a name for herself and her family, but the Emperor's guidelines relegated her to a lowly liaison position aboard Starlyte Station. Her inability to make headway in her career was a sore spot with her, and Arissa seriously considered joining the Alliance. However, the salary she pulled down as a lowly liaison officer more than made up for her personal desires. She also knew that her second-in-command, Brezzic Marr, was a staunch Imperial who would probably track her down if she defected. (WSV)

Faxsplat
This was a delivery method used on many worlds to bring the latest news of the galaxy. (GFT)

Fay

Master Fay was of near-human stock, with pale skin and pointed ears, and was believed to have been many centuries in age. She was distinguished among her peers, as well as most of the Jedi of history, in that she never once used her lightsaber in combat. Many of her peers within the ranks of Jedi Masters believed that she never carried the weapon. After attaining the rank of Jedi Master, she refused to take a Padawan learner, choosing instead to roam the galaxy wherever the Force guided her. Unfortunately for the Jedi Order, Master Fay died during the early stages of the Clone Wars. She had been part of the team dispatched to recover the antidote to the swamp gas used to destroy life on Ohma-D'un. She and Obi-Wan survived long enough to confront Asajj Ventress, who was in control of the antidote. Using the Force, Master Fay hurled shards of glass and metal at Ventress, catching the Dark Jedi in the throat with a large piece of debris. Believing Ventress to be dead, they set off to return to Coruscant. Ventress was far from dead, however, and rose up to spear Master Fay in the back with a lightsaber. Fay survived long enough to ensure Obi-Wan escaped from Queyta, then died in his arms. (RBR)

Faytonni, Dannl
This Corellian man was a noted criminal who was incarcerated at the Coco Penitentiary during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. As a young man, he aspired to join the Republic's military and serve as an officer. However, a skill in sabacc and a lust for beautiful women led him to several arrests for various crimes. A relationship with a woman, who turned out to be a changeling, put him between a rock and a hard place. He found himself wanted by the Corellian Security Force for his participation in an illegal spice-mining scheme, as well as pursued by the alien he jilted. Depending on your point of view, he was luckily captured by CorSec and imprisoned for a brief period. Upon leaving prison, he met up with his old friend, Ack Med-Beq, and the pair eventually made their way to Coruscant, only to find himself back in the CoCo Penitentiary. Shortly before the Battle of Geonosis, Faytonni escaped from the moderate-security ward of the prison along with Med-Beq and Llollulion. Faytonni then stole the uniform of an Old Republic Navy Lieutenant and disappeared into the crowded Coruscant streets. Faytonni and Med-Beq spent much of their free time in the Outlander, always on the lookout for their next mark. Over time, Faytonni upgraded his image, assuming the role of a Captain in the Judicial Department in order to continually impress his clique. Faytonni and Med-Beq tried to escape from Coruscant during the early stages of the Clone Wars, and might have stolen Senator Padme' Amidala's Nabbo Skiff if Jar Jar Binks and C-3PO hadn't programmed it to simply return to the Senate Rotunda. (OWS, HNN5, SWDB, VD3, CWOC1)

FC-20
Developed and produced by Razalon during the last decads of the Old Republic, the FC-20 speeder bike had a semi-circular body. This configuration made the speeder quite small, measuring just 1.64 meters in length, but it also made the speeder fast and maneuverable. The seat was located inside the arc, with the steering controls and braakes easily accessible by hands and feet. This semi-circular shape also made storage of the FC-20 much easier, since it didn't take up as much room as a long-bodied speeder bike. The repulsorlift engine of the FC-20 was heavily baffled, making it one of the quietest speeder bikes available at the time. Despite its popularity, the FC-20 was not as fast as most speeder bikes, having a top speed of 650 kilometers per hour, and it had a limited range before requiring recharging. (AEG, NEGV)

FD Ratio
This Imperial measurement was known as the Fire/Disable ratio, and described a weapon's ability to fire repeated blasts at a target. The FD ratio measured the amount of time over which an artillery weapon could fire a blast, divided by the amount of time the weapon was disabled for cooling and recharging. A lower FD ratios indicated a more powerful weapon. Imperial troops in the Atrisian System were believed to have been responsible for the generation of this measurement. (ISB)

FE-9Q
This was Jimm "the Starkiller Kid" Doshun's uppitty tractor robot. FE-9Q was a low, squat droid that moved about on heavy treads. Mounted to the top of the base was the torso, arms, and head of a silver protocol droid. Just above each tread was a bright light, allowing FE-9Q to see in dark conditions. When Jimm's parents started their small farm, they acquired FE-9Q after it was discarded by other farmers. When they were killed in a high-hound attack, FE-9Q took it upon itself to raise Jimm in the same way his parents had, trying to instill in him the benefits of hard work and planning. Jimm's teenage years were difficult at best, and FE-9Q often found itself at odds with its programming. It was supposed to do whatever Jimm ordered, but it was also the parental figue. Years later, the droid sacrificed itself during the struggle to oust Serji-X Arogantus from power on Aduba-3, when Merri Shen's grandfather summoned the Behemoth. FE-9Q managed to cripple one of the Cloud Riders' skyspeeders, then put itself in between Jimm and a killing laser bolt. (MC8, GMR4)

Fear Moss
This creature was named for its appearance, as it seemed to be little more than a sheet of moss hanging from a tree branch. However, any being who came into contact with the fear moss soon learned that it was much more than a simple plant. Beneath the mossy covering of its upper body, the fear moss had a translucent belly that was lined with the neurons that made up its nervous system. Dotting the belly was a collection of small, pore-like mouths, which exuded a form of acid when they touched living flesh. Fear moss was believed to have some sensitivity to the Force, as it was unable to track or capture prey on the move. Instead, the creature hung from its branch and waited until it could sense the approach of a potential victim. Shifting appropriately, the fear moss waited until it came into contact with flesh. The creature then let go from its tree and wrapped itself around the victim, then began draining its victim of bodily fluids. The name of the creature also stemmed from the fact that it preferred its victims to feel fear, as it particularly liked to consume adrenalin and other stress-induced chemicals. Any Jedi or other Force-sensitive victim was of particular interest to the fear moss, as intense fear could cause them to reach out to the Dark Side of the Force, and the fear moss could literally "taste" the fear in such a victim.

Feeorin
This humanoid race inhabited several worlds in the Outer Rim Territories, but were often viewed by other settlers as unwanted scavengers. The homeworld of the Feeorin was been debated among xenoarcheaologists, with some experts believing that the Feeorin originated on Odryn, while others believed their homeworld was Lok. What was known for sure that the Feeorin were forced to abandon their homeworld many millennia before the Battle of Naboo, but many of their colony ships never made it to their destinations. Of those that did survive the journey, the Feeorin settlers found that they were viewed as raiders or scavengers by indigenous populations, and many more were killed in struggles for control. At the time of the Battle of Naboo, less than a million Feeorin were known to exist in the galaxy. Their skin coloration varied, from jet black to white and several colors in between. Green, yellow, and blue skinned Feeorin were the most common. Feeorin lacked hair, but had a collection of thick tendrils hanging from the back of their skulls. Individual Feeorin could live to be more than 400 years of age, and grew stronger and more powerful as they aged. However, many elderly Feeorin were known to simply drop dead of old age.

A member of the Chaf family, Feesa met with Luke and Mara Jade Skywalker aboard the Chaf Envoy an Crustai, just before they set out to locate the ruins of the Outbound Flight Project. However, she was curt with the Skywalkers, and refused to answer any more questions than were absolutely necessary before introducing them to Formbi. When the mission finally located the remains of Outbound Flight on a remote planetoid in the Redoubt, Feesa went along as part of the Chiss contingent. When they were trapped in a turbolift by Jorad Pressor and his niece, Evlyn, Feesa whimpered as if she had a fear of closed-in spaces. It was later discovered that her fear was due to her companions at the time, which included Bearsh and his disguised Vagaari pirates. She tried to deflect any questioning away from Formbi, but Mara pressed the issue in order to learn the true relationship between the Chiss and the Vagaari. Formbi admitted to the entire plan, including the plot to lure the Vagaari into attacking the Chiss first. Feesa was aware of the entire plan, and went along on the mission in case Formbi was unable to complete it. (SQ)

Feeven complained to Obi-Wan Kenobi that the Jedi Master Evrios, acting on C'baoth's orders, had arrived while the family was sleeping and took a child. C'baoth later explained that the child had agreed to accompany the Jedi, and that the parents therefore had no recourse for complaint. (OF)

Fef
A moderately large planet orbiting a yellow-orange star, Fef had a thick, hot atmosphere which supports a wide variety of life. Most of the lifeforms have short lifespans, though. The huge trees that make up Fef's forests grow to over 100 meters in height in 20-30 years, then die and decompose in a matter of weeks. Fef was the homeworld of the swarming insectoid Fefze. (GG4)

Feff
Meaning "sugar", this name was common among Gungan females. (GCG)

Fefze
An insectoid race native to the planet Fef, the fefze were one of the truest forms of hive intelligence found in the galaxy. These beetle-like beings lived in group minds of ten to 100 individuals, sometimes called swarms. These swarms were the primary building block of Fefze society, and when considered as a swarm, the Fefze were quite intelligent. However, taken individually, Fefze were no more intelligent than any other insect. Individuals knew enough to eat, avoid danger, and reproduce. The Fefze ate by covering their food, which consisted of any edible, organic material, with a digestive acid, then lapped up the resulting paste. This acid was also used as a defense mechanism, because a Fefze could regurgitate the paste when attacked, giving an individual the chance to flee. The attacking creature usually stopped to eat the paste, rather than expend energy chasing the Fefze. Fefze individuals had limited dexterity. Fefze swarms were created from the individuals born from a single egg globule, which contained hatchlings from several different parents. A swarm's highest priority was recruiting new hatchlings, and a given swarm could exist for thousands of years this way. New hatchlings were obtained during the Fefze dance swarm, and tourists often traveled to Fef to view it. During the height of the Swarm War, the Fefze government was targetted by the Colony for a military coup, and in effort to draw the Galactic Alliance into fighting smaller fires and leaving the Utegetu Nebula unguarded. This would allow the Colony to launch its full-scale attack on the Chiss, but the plans of the Colony were discovered by Han Solo and his wife, Leia Organa Solo. (GG4, DN3)

Fefze Beetle
A giant beetle that inhabits mountainous planets, the fefze beetle was often hunted for sport. They often hunt in packs. A mutated species of fefze beetle was the only living creature found on the surface of the planet Duro, during the early years of the New Republic. This mutation had both an exoskeleton and an internal skeleton, giving it the ability to grow to incredible sizes. (GDV, MMY, BP)

It was later discovered that Fegel had also graduated from the Imperial Service Academy with a concentration in Intelligence. When Keth Beamis was implicated in a spy ring in the Six Local Systems, Fegel was added to the band Far Cry, in an effort to try and ferret out the Alliance team on Beltrix III. Although he preferred the b'ssa nuuvu style, Fegel tried to work with the dusk band in order to make his cover seem more legitimate. Upon arriving an Beltrix III, Fegel left Far Cry and set out on his own, in order to hit the Holstrum Talent Agency before anyone could escape, and hopefully assuring himself of a posting in the Core Worlds. However, Fegel was unaware that Ryley Ancum had already sent a coded message on to Beltrix III, warning the local cell of Fegel's presence. All he found was a legitimate talent agency, and he was forced to return to Tuttin IV without success. (GMR6)

In this maneuver, starfighters from two squadrons targetted an enemy group, but only one squadron started a direct attack on the enemy. Just prior to engaging the enemy group, the attacking squadron broke off their attack, speeding away from the combat zone. The second Alliance squadron was then able to swoop down on the enemy group and attack, since the enemy was still distracted by the sudden retreat of the first squadron. (RASB)

This tall, black-haired woman was one of the most powerful criminal figures on the planet Cotellier. Cunning and devious, Fek'ra was a beautiful woman with deep green eyes. She worked for a mysterious crimelord, although she steadily put together enough knowledge and resources to start her own operation should fate allow her the opportunity. She was one of Yosger's chief rivals, and hoped to obtain the data stored in the computer systems of the Smoking Blaster before Yosger did. She managed to get the crew of the Smoking Blaster under her control and obtained the location of Yosger's base on Carz. She then paid the mercenary crew to take her to Carz and apprehend Yosger. (GMH)

Fektur
When translated into Basic, this Ewok word meant "medicine." (GPB)

Fel, Ajai
This woman was Soontir Fel's sister-in-law, and the mother of Fyric Fel. She felt that Fyric was kidnapped in order to force the Fels to provide information on the whereabouts of Wynssa Starflare, the wife of Baron Soontir Fel. Her husband, Todr, helped bring down the kidnappers, who were led by Ilir Post, when he shot Post in the head. Corran Horn and Iella Wessiri, along with Wes Janson, Hobbie Klivian, and Plourr Ilo had cornered Post at his estate. Once Fyric was rescued, Todr and Ajai agreed to seek santuary with the New Republic, and fled Corellia with the Rogue Squadron pilots. (XWFT)

Fel, Cem
This young man was the son of Soontir Fel and Syal Antilles. Like many of his siblings, Cem was born on the planet Csilla. He was an experienced pilot, and often took the family yacht Starflare on short voyages. It was later discovered that Cem was the Fel's shadow child, whose existence was a closely-kept secret to ensure that the family was never wiped out by its enemies. (FH2, DN1)

Fel, Chak
This young man, one of the sons of Baron Soontir Fel and Syal Antilles, was a Commander in the naval branch of the armed forces of the Empire of the Hand, during the years leading up to the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Commander Fel led a small contingent of stormtroopers onto the mission formed by the Chiss Aristocra, Formbi, to locate the remains of the Outbound Flight Project. He had been personally invited by Formbi, much to the consternation of General Drask. After meeting with Luke and Mara Jade Skywalker, Commander Fel revealed that Admiral Parck had sent him and the Aurek-Seven unit of the Imperial 501st Legion of stormtroopers on the mission as protection for the mission, primarily Formbi and the two Jedi. He was considerably dismayed to learn that the information Admiral Parck had recovered regarding Outbound Flight had been stolen from his shuttle before he could share it with the Skywalkers, adding a sense of conflict and concern to the already tense mission. However, unknown to the others, Chak Fel was maintained covert surveillance aboard the Chaf Envoy, installing several sensors and other equipment with which to monitor the Chiss. After the discovery of the Outbound Flight and the revelation of Bearsh's true origins, Fel and the 501st found themselves paired with General Drask in a desparate race to survive the growing Vagaari attacks. After he was mauled by a wolvkil, Fel was forced to relinquish command of Aurek-Seven to Drask, in order to improve their chances of survival. Fel's own chances were made worse when he absorbed shrapnel from the explosion of a turbolift car. Drask dragged him from the battle as the team escaped a Vagaari ambush. Later, Fel realized that it had been the Vagaari - then posing as Geroons - who had stolen the Outbound Flight information from his ship. They used the knowledge to help them try and steal the D-Four Dreadnaught. Unfortunately for the Fel family, Chak later died from his injuries. (SQ, DN1)

Fel, Cherith
This woman was the oldest daugther of Soontir Fel and his wife, Syal Antilles. Cherith was also the second of Baron Fel's children to die in combat, during the struggle against the Yuuzhan Vong. (DJ)

Fel, Davin
This man was the oldest son of Soontir Fel and his wife, Syal Antilles. Davin was also the first of Baron Fel's children to die in combat, during the struggle against the Yuuzhan Vong. As a youth, Davin was trained among the Chiss like his younger brother, Jagged. His skills as a pilot made him something of a hero among the younger generations on Csilla, although his instructors felt that he sometimes took too many risks. (DJ, GMR7)

Fel, Fyric
This two-year-old was the nephew of Soontir Fel. He was kidnapped from the Fel estate, just outside Coronet City on the planet Corellia, shortly after the Battle of Brentaal, and Corran Horn was dispatched to investigate. Fyric's mother Ajai believed he was kidnapped in order to get the Fel's to provide information on the whereabouts of Wynssa Starflare. He intercepted Wes Janson, Hobbie Klivian, and Plourr Ilo when the arrived at the Fel estate, hoping to gather information on the whereabouts of Wynssa Starflare, who was actually Wedge Antilles' sister, Syal. Kirtan Loor took over the investigation, and tried to take the Rogue Squadron pilots in for questioning. Horn let the pilots go, but had to save them when they tried to negotiate with the kidnappers, whom he identified as a group led by Ilir Post. Fyric was eventually rescued, when Todr Fel shot Post in the head and then Plourr caught Fyric before he could fall. (XWFT)

Fel, Jagged
This ruggedly handsome young man was revealed to be the son of Baron Soontir Fel and Syal Antilles, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Named for Syal's father, he was distinguished by his pale green eyes and a scar which started above his right eye and ran over his skull. The hair over the scar was white, contrasting with rest of his jet-black hair.Jagged grew up among the Chiss, being accepted by them ass one of their own, and he strove to ensure that he met their lofty expectations. At the Battle of Garqi, Fel and his Spike Squadron of Chiss were part of the fleet assembled by Admiral Pellaeon to support the New Republic. Their incredible skill helped turn back the Yuuzhan Vong forces. At the time, he held the rank of Colonel. When the battle group reported back to the New Republic leadership, Jagged Fel was asked by his uncle, Wedge Antilles, to accompany them. Spike Force later assisted the New Republic at the Battle of Ithor.

In the wake of the battle, Fel sent two squadrons of Chiss pilots back to report on the Yuuzhan Vong to his father, while Jagged himself remained behind as a liaison to Rogue Squadron. Jagged later returned to the Chiss at his father's summons, where he agreed to lead a small team to scout out the Yuuzhan Vong's utilization of Ithor and other planets. Soontir hoped that his son could find information useful to the Republic, to keep it from fracturing after the loss of Coruscant. He spent a good deal of time on Hapes with Jaina Solo, where the two discovered that old attractions still remained. Shortly after the Second Battle of Coruscant, Jagged agreed to remain on Borleias with his uncle, General Wedge Antilles, and the small group of officers and soldiers who came together to form the Inner Circle. Jag later joined the Twin Suns Squadron, after Luke Skywalker turned control of the squadron over to Jaina Solo.

It was during this period on Borleias that Jag realized he felt something very deep for Jaina, a feeling which was reciprocated as much as possible during her portrayal as the Yuuzhan Vong goddess Yun-Harla. They both realized that a relationship would not only put stress on their military lives, but their military lives would put additional strain on their relationship. However, they both understood that their growing love was deep enough to withstand it, and worked hard to make it work. Jag, for his own part, knew that what he felt was love, but couldn't bring himself to admit it until Jaina fell into a coma while trying to help Tahiri Veila reconcile her mind.

From that point forward, Jag and Jaina continued to deepen their relationship, but their work was threatened when the Yuuzhan Vong launched their final assault on the planet Calamari. In the wake of that battle, the planet Zonama Sekor had reappeared near Coruscant, forcing the Yuuzhan Vong forces to retreat for defensive purposes, and giving the Galactic Alliance a reason to attack and covered Coruscant. As Jaina traveled to Zonama Sekot, Jagged took control of both Vanguard and Twin Suns Squadrons as part of the assault on Coruscant. During the battle, Jagged and his forces escorted a transport filled with infiltration soldiers to the ground. However, his clawcraft took a hit from a plasma weapon, and Jagged was forced to crashland on Coruscant. He was rescued by Judder Page, and later assisted the ground teams in disabling Coruscant's defenses.

After the deaths of Onimi and Shimrra, the rest of the Yuuzhan Vong force at Coruscant surrendered to the Galactic Alliance, bringing the war to an end. In the weeks following the cease-fire, Jag sought out Jaina and admitted that loved her. Jaina, however, had decided that it was not yet time for her to settle down. She told Jag that she had to ensure that the galaxy would be a better place for future generations, especially her own children. Despite Jaina's plans to continue as a military officer, Jag knew that they would be together very soon, as he had just been named as the Chiss Expansionary Defense Force's primary liaison to the Galactic Alliance. Jaina and Jag shared one final, passionate kiss before going their separate ways.

Jag continued to serve in the Chiss military, and was in command of several missions to drive back the advances of the Colony during the years following the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. His duty to the Chiss Acsendancy placed him in direct contact - and direct conflict - with Jaina and her family many times, leading up to the Battle of Tenupe. Just before leaving for Tenupe, Jagged was promoted to the rank of Captain in the Chiss Expansionary Defense Fleet, placing him on par with the colonels of the Galactic Alliance Defense Froce. At Tenupe, he was forced to try and shoot down the Millennium Falcon, but was himself shot down by the cannonfire of Leia Organa Solo. Leia wished him no ill will, but needed to complete her own mission. Jagged's clawcraft plunged into the defoliated jungle of mogo trees on Tenupe and exploded. Later, with the end of the Swarm War, Leia and Han learned that Jagged was listed as missing in action after the fighting was brought to a halt. The Chiss refused to release any definitive statement about Jagged's fate.

Thus, the Solos were as happy as they were surprised when they encountered Jagged on Telkur Station, several years later. Jagged revealed that he had been stranded on Tenupe after he was shot down, when a rescue team was killed while trying to locate him. The military chose not to send any more forces to rescue a single pilot, so the Fel family formed two missions of their own. The first one was killed as well, but Jagged managed to recover their communications equipment and made contact with the second team. Jagged then revealed that he was on Telkur Station trying to locate Alema Rar, who had escaped from the maw of a spidersloth on Tenupe, but left behind a Twi'lek memory cord that described her recovery and escape. After explaining that he was no longer part of the Chiss military Jagged revealed that he wanted to make sure that the Twi'lek did not get a chance to re-establish the Gorog nest, and cause more trouble like the Swarm War. Jagged went on to explain that he had been exiled from the Chiss Ascendancy for his part in freeing the Wookiee Jedi Lowbacca, who later participated in the raid on Supply Depot Thrago. This made the Fel family liable for the damage the Wookiee had caused, and Jagged was forced into exile in order to maintain his family's standing.

His research on Alema Rar's movements led to the development of a specialized computer tracking system that scanned surveillance video for her specific physical deformities. However, when he presented the system to Jedi Grand Master Luke Skywalker, he was dismayed to learn that Alema Rar had been moving about using Force-flashes to disable surveillance cameras. With a few modifications, Fel was able to accurately track Rar's use of Force-flashes, giving the Jedi a way to track her movements. During his visit to the Jedi Temple, Fel tried to avoid Jaina Solo, and even admitted to her that he had not wanted to speak to her. However, despite his reservations, Jag accepted an offer to serve as Grand Master Skywalker's leader of the Jedi task force assigned to locate Alema Rar. Skywalker demanded that the task force include Jaina and Zekk, and Jag agreed to do what it took to make the team work. His investigations turned up many new pieces of information, including the distinct possibility that Brisha Syo was nothing more than one of Lumiya's aliases, employed to cover up Jacen's presence on Lumiya's asteroid and Lumiya's subsequent travels to Coruscant.

As the task force leader, Jag was forced to serve as Jaina's commanding officer, which gave him the opportunity to confront her about the manic way she was preparing to fill her assumed role as the Sword of the Jedi. He ordered her to take a break, so that she could concentrate on their mission. The group managed to be on Ossus, tracking Alema Rar, when Jacen Solo sent a group of Galactic Alliance Guard soldiers to forcibly take control of the Jedi training facility on the planet. Their presence on the planet allowed them to overpower Major Serpa's forces, but not before several Jedi were injured or killed by the soliders. This event only hardened Jaina's resolve to bring her brother to justice, and Jag struggled to keep her under control. Shortly after the battle on Ossus, the group accompanied Han and Leia Solo on a mission to infiltrate the Anakin Solo. Although they failed to capture Jacen, they managed to steal a wealth of information on Jacen's movements, and escaped the trap that had been laid for Jacen by Sadras Koyan. The group returned to Kashyyyk, where Jagged returned to planning the mission to eliminate Alema Rar. He acquired the Mandalorian crushgaunts that Boba Fett had sent to Han Solo, hoping that the Mandalorian iron that was used in their manufacture - not to mention the ability to crush the life from a living being - would help him confront Alema if needed.

He got his chance to test out his ideas when the group traveled to Alema Rar's asteroid in the MZX32905 System, where Lumiya had once made her home. In an effort to weaken Alema Rar before confronting her, Jagged, Jaina, and Zekk split up, with each taking a different approach to Alema's lair. In this way, they forced her to expend energy on Force phantoms, while each got closer to her actual position. Jagged was besieged by a flock of vicious mynocks, which he tried to draw farther and farther from Alema's position. The real Alema Rar attacked Jaina, then turned her attention to Jag's location. He tried to get his explosive traps in place, but she arrived before he could set them off. She managed to back him into a corner, then used the Force to take his blaster away. This was one of the possibilities that Jag had anticipated, having placed a sensor in the weapon that would detonate the blaster if it was not near his body. The blaster exploded, catching Alema Rar in the chest and face. Jag then grabbed her by the neck with the crushgaunt, and would have snapped her neck immediately if she hadn't sent a mental plea into his mind, begging him to remember her as she was before the war against the Yuuzhan Vong. Jag agreed, and then crushed her neck as an act of mercy, rather than murder.

Despite this victory, Jag knew that he might be trapped inside the asteroid as explosive charges started tearing it apart. He managed to reach a ship and escape, and soon returned to the Millennium Falcon to report on Alema Rar's death. His injuries were quite extensive, so Han and Leia transported him to the Forest Moon of Endor, where the Jedi were able to stabilize his systems and help him begin his recovery. When he was ready to fly again, Jag was surprised and honored when Han Solo asked him to serve as the pilot of the Millennium Falcon on a Jedi-sponsored mission to rescue Allana, the daughter of the Hapan Queen Mother, Tenel Ka. Jag continued to work with the exiled Jedi Order, helping them set up a temporary base on the Forest Moon of Endor before relocating to a more permanent base on Shedu Maad. When Jacen Solo - who had assumed the title of Darth Caedus - discovered the base on Shedu Maad, Jag assisted with the plans to defend the base from attack. He served aboard the Millennium Falcon during the fighting that ensued, and was among the first people to enter the Anakin Solo when Han and Leia landed in one of its hangars. This allowed Jag to be the first being to find Jaina Solo, deep in the ship's infirmary, cradling the dead body of her brother in her arms. Jaina resisted Jag's attempt to remove the body, but when she realized who he was, she began to come back to her senses. Although she refused to let go of Jacen, she asked Jag to locate Zekk and Mirta Gev, if they were still alive.

When the fight to gain control of the Anakin Solo had been won, the forces of the Jedi Coalition gathered around Luke Skywalker and the other Jedi Masters as they confronted the surviving Imperial Moffs. Master Skywalker offered the Moffs a chance to join the Jedi in restoring the Galactic Alliance, provided that they submit to the command and leadership of Jagged himself. He was surprised and angry that Skywalker hadn't discussed this with him beforehand, until Luke explained that the Moffs needed to know that the plan had not been his own. The Moffs accepted the deal, knowing that it was the only way to survive the coming weeks, and explaining that Jagged would have their full support in reining in Admiral Bwua'tu and the other Galactic Alliance military leaders. Jagged eventually agreed to take on the challenge of uniting the military and ending the war with The Confederation, becoming one of the first Imperial leaders who put peace and unity before personal acquisition of power.

In the three years that followed, Jagged became the Head of State of the Imperial Remnant, and eventually agreed to meet with Chief of State Natasi Daala to discuss a unification of the galaxy. During his regular travels into the space controlled by the Galactic Alliance, Jagged planned for secret trysts with Jaina Solo, and they love deepened over time. By this time, his once-black hair had developed a streak of white that started at a scar on his forehead and ran through his hair, giving him a dashing appearance that was only heightened by his choice in clothing. Where his officers and military always wore dress uniforms, Jagged preferred to wear regular - though expensive - civilian attire, which made him appear more of a common man than a political leader. During many of his meetings with Jaina, Jagged expressed a desire to have a Jedi presence within the Imperial Remnant, as much for protection as for guidance. When she asked him if this meant he wanted her to leave the Jedi Order so that they could be together, Jagged said no, but he also refused to step down as the Imperial Head of State, claiming that it was his responsibility to hold the Empire together. This forced them to agree to work hard to ensure that their relationship did not suffer from the distances that often separated them. This task was made more difficult by the popular media, when reporters such as Javis Tyrr began following their every move, in the hope of getting a news exclusive on their relationship.

In the midst of all the these situations, Jagged came to the realization that Jaina was the one woman he could love for the rest of his life, and he proposed to her. Jaina quickly accepted, and the pair began to plan out their lives together. In the meantime, Jag went about the task of leading the Imperial Remnant, and hoped to negotiate a treaty with Natasi Daala that would allow the Remnant to have autonomous membership in the Galactic Alliance. Daala demanded an all-or-nothing approach, and Jag was forced to break off their discussions. While in the Chief of State's offices, he overhead Daala's plans to bring in the Mandalorians to assist with controlling the Jedi. He reluctantly relayed this information to Jaina, but swore her to secrecy, since the knowledge had not been provided to him first-hand.

Fel, Marasiah
This beautiful woman was the only daughter of Imperial Emperor Roan Fel, and was considered to be the next in line to succeed as Emperor, some 130 years after the Battle of Yavin. Known as Sia to her friends, Princess Marasiah was trained as an Imperial Knight, and although she was eleveted to the position of a Knight, she chose not to serve among their ranks. Her ascension to her father's throne was anything but assured, as the Imperials Moffs refused to accept the possibility that the new Empire could be ruled by a woman.

Any plans that the Fels might have had were smashed when Darth Krayt assumed control of the galaxy, forcing Marasiah to go into hiding in the Imperial Mission on Socorro, where she befriended Astraal Vao. Marasiah also worked behind the scenes to locate pockets of Imperials who remained loyal to her father, but she left enough of a trail that Darth Talon was able to track her down on Socorro. With the help of Astraal Vao, Marasiah managed to escape the assassination attempt.

Their escape route brought them into contact with Cade Skywalker and his crew of bounty hunters, who agreed to help them escape from Socorro in the Mynock. Cade only agreed to transport them after he recognized Marasiah's true identity, hoping that she would lead the bounty hunters to her father. On Vendaxa, they were once again attacked by Darth Talon. The fight might have gone badly if Cade hadn't chosen to call on his ability to use the Force to defeat the Sith Lord, when she threatened the lives of his friends. Princess Fel later learned his true identity from Astraal, and set out to befriend him. She explained that they both had legacies they needed to live up to and carry out, despite their obvious differences.

Their conversation was interrupted by the arrival of several Imperial fighters, and Marasiah feared that her father had foolishly come to Vendaxa to rescue her. Her fears were only partly relieved when her rescuers turned out to be Antares Draco and Ganner Krieg. Even with the addition of two Imperial Knights, they found themselves confronting four Sith Lords. Marasiah herself took up a lightsaber, and valiantly defended Cade, but was no match for a fully-trained Sith. She took a lightsaber slash to her midsection and back, and would have died if Cade had not rescued her. Onboard the Mynock, Cade used his talents to bring Marasiah back from the brink of death, drawing on the Force to heal her wounds. It was then that Marasiah realized that the Imperial Knights and the Jedi needed to put aside their differences and join forces against the Sith, if they were to have any hope of restoring peace to the galaxy.

In the weeks that followed, Marasiah returned to her training as an Imperial Knight and passed her trials. She also wondered what had happened to Antares Draco, who seemed to be avoiding her. When she learned that her father had forbade Draco from seeing her, Marasiah explained that her personal was her own business, and that she would deal with him at a later time, before passionately kissing Draco. Marasiah and Draco, along with Ganner Krieg, were later dispatched to track the movements of Azlyn Rae, who was posing as a bounty hunter in an effort to locate Cade Skywalker. Azlyn Rae was able to relay the location of the Jedi Order's Hidden Temple, and the three Imperial Knights were then ordered to meet with the surviving Jedi and discuss an alliance. The Jedi questioned Emperor Fel's reasons for an alliance, given that he appeared to have supported the Sith takeover of the galaxy.

Princess Marasiah explained that her father had supported the Treaty of Anaxes, and had been open to discussion with the Jedi, well before the failure of the Ossus Project. Emperor Fel then allowed Kol Skywalker the time to prove that the Ossus Project had been sabotaged, but the schemes of the Moff Council prevented any such evidence from being brought to light. The Moffs, Marasiah explained, struck the deal with the Sith, then took control of the New Empire and allied it with the New Sith Order. The Moffs then tried to have Emperor Fel assassinated, in order to ensure that his knowledge of the truth behind the Ossus Project would never come to light. She implored the gathered Jedi to view the Sith as their common enemy, rather than fighting amongst each other and further limiting their ability to overcome Darth Krayt. Jedi Master T'ra Saa could sense nothing but truth in her words, but she could not see how the gathered beings could overthrow the Sith in their generation, let alone the next several generations.

While the Jedi Masters deliberated, Marasiah and the Imperial Knights discovered that they were willing to forge an alliance with Cade Skywalker, who advocated a direct attack on the life of Darth Krayt. (SWLB, SWLH, SWLL, SWLHT)

Fel, Roan
This man was once a member of the Imperial Knights, and later became the third member of the benevolent Fel dynasty to serve as Emperor of the New Empire, some 130 years after the Battle of Yavin. He embraced the New Empire's doctrine of "Victory Without War," and used both his skills as a politicial and his skills with the Force to maintain order in the new Empire. However, despite his political acumen, Emperor Fel failed to see the new order of Sith that rose to power.

When Darth Krayt appeared on Coruscant and proposed an alliance with the New Empire, Roan and his Moffs agreed to their conditions. Unknown to the Imperials, however, was the fact that Darth Krayt had set in motions a sweeping plan to assume control of the galaxy. It was Krayt who sabotaged the Ossus Project, working behind the scenes to force the Moff Council into a decision to go to war against the Galactic Alliance. Fel eventually discovered that Moff Nyna Calixte had made the first contact with Darth Krayt, and made plans with Morlish Veed to strike a deal with the Sith to overthrow not only the Galactic Alliance but the Jedi Order and Emperor Fel himself.

In the wake of the Sith-Imperial War, Fel tried to maintain control of the galaxy, but feared for his life. Thus, he often employed a stand-in whenever he met with Darth Krayt. This proved to be a wise move when Krayt arrived on Coruscant and killed the Imperial leaders, as the final attack that led him to the throne. Fel's double was slain, but Fel himself managed to escape into hiding. He also kept secret the location of his daughter, Marasiah, hoping that a member of the Fel family would once again rise to power in the galaxy.

However, seven long years of exile began to take their toll on Fel, who was forced to watch the galaxy degenerate from its former glory. In a bold move, he returned to Bastion and demanded that the planetary leaders cede control to the Fels. Lieutenant Kiefer and several other of Darth Krayt's adherents tried to prevent this, but General Oron Jaeger and others in the military had remained loyal to Fel during the years. Jaeger killed Kiefer, allowing Fel to once again rule the planet.

Fel took Jaeger into his inner circle, and together they began plotting the destruction of Darth Krayt's Sith Empire. They knew that Bastion was too heavily-fortified for Krayt to make a direct assault, but kept their plans and their location as secret in order to gather more loyal troops to their side. During their initial planning sessions, news arrived that Marasiah had been attacked on Socorro, where she had been hiding in the Imperial Mission. Fel refused to let his bodyguard Antares Draco, an Imperial Knight of great strength, rescue her, fearing that Krayt might have been behind her attack. Any rescue mission would reveal their plans to the Sith Lord, and eliminate any chance they had of overthrowing him.

When he learned that Draco and Ganner Krieg had defied his orders and rescued the Princess anyway, Fel was forced to publically acknowledge their heroic actions, but in private he assured Draco that there would be no way the younger man would ever marry his daughter. Fel then dispatched Mingo Bovark to The Wheel, in an effort to forge an alliance with Admiral Gar Stazi and the Galactic Alliance. The Sith sabotaged the negotiations, but they had managed to learn of Fel's location on Bastion. He remained alert for any possible attack, which meant that he was ready when Darth Kruhl attacked him in the Pellaeon Gardens, after Governor Vikar Dorn arrived at Bastion to pledge his service to the Emperor.

Fel quickly figured out that Dorn's arrival was a cover for Darth Kruhl's mission, and set out to punish the Governor. Fel ordered the entire crew of the Dauntless, including Dorn's son, to disembark. He then ordered his forces to execute everyone but Dorn. Dorn was allowed to return to Coruscant, where he delivered a message from the Emperor to Darth Maladi. Meanwhile, both the Sith and the Imperials were seraching for Cade Skywalker, although Emperor Fel had no information about wht Darth Krayt needed Skywalker so badly. When Skywalker saved the life of Fel's daughter, Marasiah, Fel believed that he might finally have a bargaining chip. However, Marasiah demanded that Skywalker be set free, a decision that Emperor Fel later regretted. (SWI88, SWLB, SWLA, SWLT, SWLR, SWLL)

Fel, Soontir
One of the youngest Imperial Navy officers to obtain the rank of Captain and command a ship, Fel was everything one would expect from a recruiting poster. Broad-shouldered and handsome from years of working as a farmer, Fel was a native of Corellia and had come through the ranks as a decorated and legendary TIE Fighter pilot. However, he did not enter the Imperial Academy willingly. Instead, he was bribed into go in order to stop him from testifying against Ilir Post, on the threat that his father would be charged with a flurry of minor crimes if he didn't go. This took him away from the farming that he loved so much, but he was determined to make the best of the situation. Fel was a contemporary of Han Solo and Loka Hask while at the Carida Academy, regularly defeating Hask while often challenging Solo. Fel later graduated with honors as his class' salutatorian, second only to Solo in their class of cadets. Fel earned command of the Pride of the Senate shortly before the Battle of Nar Shaddaa, and was quite puzzled by Admiral Greelanx's battle plans. They did not allow for any flexibility during the battle, while executing the Base Delta Zero order to the letter. Fel had never participated in such an exercise, and questioned the wisdom of decimating Nar Shaddaa. However, the battle was quickly upon him, and the minimal battle plan outlined by Greelanx - coupled with the surprising ability of the smugglers to damage the Imperial fleet - soon resulted an Imperial retreat. Fel, appalled at the losses and at Greelanx's orders to retreat, remained behind to retrieve as many of his pilots as he could before redezvousing with the fleet. Greelanx was angry with Fel's insubordination, but Fel resolved to report Greelanx's poor planning to his superiors. He was assigned to the 37th Imperial Fighter Wing before transferring to Prefsbelt IV as a flight instructor. After receiving high honors, Fel actually was responsible for the training of Tycho Celchu, Biggs Darklighter, and Hobbie Klivian. He was offered a position in Moff Tarkin's bodyguard unit by Tarkin himself, but the defection of Biggs Darklighter and Derek Klivian relegated Fel to the 181st Imperial Fighter Group, which was under the command of Evir Derricote. They scored a hollow victory at Ord Biniir, on the same day as the Battle of Yavin, but Fel was given a commendation on Coruscant in an effort to bolster Imperial morale. He was also bestowed with the title of Baron of the Empire. On Coruscant, he met Wynssa Starflare, and they fell deeply in love. Shortly afterward, Fel became known to Ysanne Isard, who challenged his loyalty by trying to seduce him. He refused, and although she praised his loyalty, she also hated him. Fel saw through Isard's ploy and into the heart of the Empire, and didn't like what he saw. He also saw that the Emperor's non-human bias was only as good as the air around it, once Thrawn began to rise through the ranks. Fel found himself admiring Thrawn's plans for the ambush which destroyed the Alliance's supply convoy near Derra IV, but could not reconcile Palpatine's hypocrisy. Although he was promoted to Colonel and given command of the entire 181st Fighter Group, Fel became disheartened with the Empire. Ysanne Isard's sacrifice of an entire fighter wing to lure Rogue Squadron to Brentaal was an action he couldn't reconcile in his own mind. After the 181st was sent to Brentaal to help defend the world - more of an exercise to bring down the Cabal that to save the planet - Fel decided that enough was enough. When the New Republic had defeated the Imperials, Fel was captured when Colonel Salm hit his Interceptor with an ion cannon blast, rendering his fighter inoperative. Shortly before the Battle of Brentaal, he had arranged for Wynssa - now his wife - to disappear. He pledged to help the New Republic if they would help him locate Wynssa, a proposition to which the Republic's Starfighter Command agreed. However, Fel soon turned his back on the Republic and returned to Imperial service. Wedge Antilles, the real-life brother of Wynssa Starflare, thought he had encountered Fel again, during the series of skirmishes against the Warlord Zsinj. In reality, though, the Fel he discovered was Tetran Cowall, and his abilities were augmented with a droid brain in several of his wingmate's TIE Interceptors. It was later learned that Fel had joined the forces aligned with Grand Admiral Thrawn, and he spent the next several years working with the true Imperial leadership to eliminate the various warlords who claimed Imperial rights. He lost an eye in the final battle of his career, and retired to work with Voss Parck as a commander at the Hand of Thrawn compound on Nirauan. Fel was also the "parent" of a number of clones developed at Thrawn's request. The clones were dispatched to several sleeper cells - excellent pilots awaiting Thrawn's reactivation codes. The clones were flash-imprinted with much of Fel's ability as a pilot and warrior, but without his personality. However, many groups managed to retain his love of the open air and farming, and decided not to heed the recall which came ten years after Thrawn's death. Shortly after the Battle of Garqi, it was revealed that Soontir and Syal had had five children together, including a son, Jagged, who eventually rose to power in the Imperial Remnant's military. Both Soontir and Jagged became leaders within the Chiss Navy, and were instrumental in keeping the Chiss from seeing more intense action as the rest of the galaxy struggled against the Yuuzhan Vong. After Yuuzhan Vong began their invasion of the galaxy, Soontir and Syal retired to the Chiss homeworld of Csilla, where they felt it was safer to live among the Chiss. (THG, HXW, VOF, IF, MBF, XWES, DTR, DJ, FH1, UVG, NECH)

Fel, Todr
This man was Soontir Fel's younger brother. He allowed his wife, Ajai, to contact the Rogue Squadron pilots who were on Corellia to locate Wynssa Starflare, on the off-chance that they could be persuaded to help find his young son, Fyric. Fyric had been kidnapped by Ilir Post, and was being held for ransom. When the Rogues, along with Corran Horn and Iella Wessiri of the Corellian Security Force, cornered Post at his estate, Todr's ploy paid off. He knew that Post would kill his son, so he took a chance and shot at Post. The blast took Post between the eyes, killing him instantly. However, Post dropped Fyric from a second-story window as he died. Luckily, Plourr Ilo caught Fyric before he could hit the ground. Todr and his famaily fled Corellia with the Rogues, hoping to find safety with Soontir and the New Republic. (XWFT)

Fel, Wynssa
This young woman was the daughter of Soontir Fel and Syal Antilles. Like her four siblings, Wyn grew up on the planet Csilla. However, her isolation on Csilla only served to amplify her desire to learn about the rest of the galaxy. When Luke Skywalker's mission to locate Zonama Sekot arrived on Csilla, Wyn took an instant liking to Jacen Solo, staying late at the Expeditionary Library and helping him develop search algorithms for poring over planetary data. She was briefly kidnapped by those Chiss who were loyal to Peita Aabe, but was later rescued and returned to her family. (FH2)

Fel Swoop
A seedy cantina located on Treasure Ship Row on Corellia, it was frequented by swoop riders and speeder bike jockeys. (IJ)

Felacat
This temperate world was the home planet of the Felacatian race. (T8)

Felacatian
This race of polymorphic felines was native to the planet Felacat. In its normal state, the average Felacatian was a tall, humanoid being with near-human characteristics. The only tell-tale sign of their alien lineage was their short fur and long tail. However, when a Felacatian was forced to exist within the hyperspatial continuum for an extended period of time, or when they experienced a high level of stress, a Felacatian's body began to change. Without an outlet for their stress, the Felacatian's body shifted its form, becoming a huge, predatory cat. In this form, the Felacatian was extremely dangerous, and was protected by a row of heavy spikes along its back. (T8)

Felana
This female Vorzydiak was the leader of the planet Vorzyd 5, some eleven years before the Battle of Naboo. She was considered remarkable tall for her race, and cast an imposing image whenever she appeared. She resented the accusations made by Chairman Port of Vorzyd 4, blaming the industrial sabotage of Vorzyd 4's manufacturing facilities on the natives of Vorzyd 5. She threatened military response if Port refused to back down, but both were unaware that the sabotage was being carried out by the Freelies. When the Freelies' role was revealed by Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gon Jinn, Felana agreed to work with Port to resolve their differences peacefully. (TTW)

Felana
This was one of the most dominant families of the planet Vorzyd 5. (GORW)

Felana Spaceport
This was Vorzyd 5's primary spaceport, located in the city of Efavan and named for the wealthy Felana family. (GORW)

This was the primary continent found on the planet Nishr, and was the site of the main base of the Alliance's Nishr Taskforce. (ROE)

Felean, Haanen
This male Klatooinan joined the Alliance shortly before the Battle of Endor. He was believed to have died in an Imperial attack on his supply garrison a couple of years later, but later was discovered to have joined the Empire and was providing information on the New Republic's supply routes to its leaders.

Felenar
This ancient race of beings, known for their meticulous craftsmanship of weapons and armor, died out many millennia before the Battle of Yavin. (GMR8)

Felenar Armor
This unusual body armor was developed by the extinct Felenar race, many millennia before the Battle of Yavin. It was created from a number of exotic materials, and provided excellent protection and maneuverability for the wearer. (GMR8)

Felens, Equa
A native of Bacrana, this man fell in love with Dara Gion at the Bacrana Educational Institute. They both disagreed with the Empire's control of Brak Sector, and were part of the group which assembled in Amma to protest the construction of the Imperial shipyards there. Both Dara and Equa were injured when Imperial forces opened fire, and they fled into hiding to avoid Imperial retribution. Equa's eyes were permanently damaged, and he eventually had them replaced with a Neuro-saav Hifold Sensory Package. They eventually joined Trep Reskan and the Bacrana System Defense Force, and later the Alliance. Felens was assigned to the Skytowers Residence safehouse on Genesia, and he drifted apart from Dara. (FBS)

Felid Slin
This Em'liy deity was known as the Matriarch Spirit of the Sand. (GMR1)

Felinx
This was a species of feline creature often kept as a pet by the wealthiest of the galaxy's beings. Breeders of felinx continually inbred each successive generation, and maintained those bloodlines with minimal brain-mass. Thus, the average felinx was little more than a long, fur-covered body that existed for the physical pleasures of warmth and food. This trait made them the ideal pet, for they required little more than regular meals and the warmth of being held. However, certain individuals ended up as nothing more than automata, and required bio-stimulation circuit implants to keep them from bumping into walls and chewing their fur off. (MA)

Fel'Kona, Jonas
This aging man, a noted Jedi Master of the decades leading up to the Battle of Naboo, was known for his skills at discovering potential students for training. He traveled the galaxy in search of candidates, but always returned to Coruscant with his new students. It was Master Fel'Kona who discovered Lanius Qel-Bertuk. (LFCW)

Fel'Kona, Minos
This noted Jedi Knight was a descendant of Jonas Fel'Kona, and did a series of investigations into the origin of the Sith fortress on the planet Almas during the years following the Battle of Naboo. Fel'Kona's analysis was able to date the fortress's construction to a point more than 1,132 years before the Battle of Naboo, and discovered many strange and wondrous things below the surface. Skeletons of krayt-dragon-like creatures littered the strata underneath the fortress, and massive carvings in black marble slabs were found to have traced the Dark Lords of the Sith backward from Darth Rivan to Naga Sadow. During the early stages of the Clone Wars, Minos spoke openly on what he believed the "official stance" of the Jedi Order should be with regards to the Cularin System and the presence of the Thaereian Military. When the command was issued to execute Order 66, Master Fel'Kona was still in the Cularin System, as indicated by the files discovered on his lost datapad. In these personal log files, he questioned the continued role of the Jedi in the New Order, and what path he should take. He recognized the need to fight back against Palpatine's tyranny, but he also believed that Palpatine and Darth Vader would be ready for any attempt on their lives, and would utterly destroy any being who tried to harm them. He vowed to take any surviving Jedi he could find in the Cularin System and flee into the depths of the gaalxy, where they could be relatively safe while contemplating their next actions. (LFCW)

Fell Defender
This was one of the handful of Chiss Star Destroyers that were deployed during the Battle of Tenupe. It was the Fell Defender that captured the Millennium Falcon after the freighter was encountered near the Shattered Moon. The Star Destroyer took heavy damage in the fighting for Tenupe, especially after the Moon Fleet arrived to augment the Colony's ground forces. (DN3)

Fellan
This young man worked for Narloch as a courier, until he was offered a huge sum of credits by Kendamari Casinos to help bring down the Herglic entrepreneur. He took the money, and assisted a group of bounty hunters in locating Narloch. (ND)

Fellaus, Lus-Nati
This Cerean ambassador was assassinated by Melo Centris, although security records indicated that the only being to visit Ambassador Fellaus was his sister. Retinal scans proved this, despite the fact that Fellaus' sister was halfway across the galaxy at the time of his murder. (WOTC)

Fellion
This timid-looking woman served as one of Black Sun's primary enforcers on the planet Brentaal, during the height of the New Order. Trained in the Kathol Outback, Fellion was known for her ability to defeat her enemies without the aid of battle armor or fancy weaponry, relying on martial arts and simple blaster weapons to do her job. (CCW)

Fellon
This was a port city located on the planet Halmad. A small Imperial base was located in the southern warehouse district, but was destroyed as part of Operation Groundquake. (IF)

Felloux
This poet captured the events of the Battle of Mizra in a sweeping, epic poem. (NECH)

Fellowship of Kooroo
This quasi-religion emerged as a search for enlightenment, based on the teachings of the spiritual leader Kooroo. To attain true enlightenment, followers strove to achieve telepathic abilities to communicate. They worshipped and meditated on several Outer Rim worlds, where there were Shrines of Kooroo placed. These shrines were later claimed to be ancient communications devices by the reporter Andor Javin, and the Fellowship deeply resented the intrusion and speculation. They put out a deathmark on Javin's head, in reaction to his reports. (SWJ13)

Fellowship Plaza
This open plaza was located in the heart of Coruscant's Senate District, and was built after the planet was retaken by the Galactic Alliance in the wake of the war against the Yuuzhan Vong. The neatly-arranged pedestrian walkways of Fellowship Plaza were lined with blartrees. (LF3)

Feln
Once a native of Odryn, this massive Feeorin was one of the Jedi Masters who taught at the satellite training facility on Taris, during the years following the Great Sith War. As a student, Feln was considered remarkable, for very few Feeorins ever showed a connection to the Force. His gifts were ever more unusual when Lady Krynda Draay discovered his ability to see into the future. She took him in as a student, and trained him herself.

Among the Jedi Consulars, Master Feln was known as an exceptionally gifted seer, and could see vivid images of the future through the Force. Unknown to the students on Taris, Master Feln was part of Master Lucien Draay's plan to murder of all the Padawans who were under their tutelage. Only Zayne Carrick escaped, having arrived late to a ceremony that the Padawans believed was to elevate them to the ranks of Jedi Knights.

Carrick escaped, forcing Master Lucien and the other instructors to blame the murders of the Padawans on Carrick in order to cover their tracks. Information recovered from the memory banks of the labor droid T1-LB revealed to Zayne that Master Feln and the other Masters had experienced intense visions through the Force, in which the Padawans were destined to become Sith Lords who swept across the galaxy and exterminated the Jedi Order. Thus, the Master were forced to take it upon themselves to kill their Padawans, in an effort to save the galaxy.

After Zayne managed to escape their grasp, Master Feln and the other Masters were recalled to Coruscant by the Jedi Order, to bolster the Old Republic's forces as the Mandalorian Wars reached their height. After Raana Tey's death on Taris, Feln and several others experienced a kind of shared vision, with only Lucien Draay failing to foresee a stern-faced, near-human male who was controlling the rakghouls of Taris with the Muur Talisman. Shortly after, word was received from Celeste Morne that the Muur Talisman had been found, and was on its way to Odryn. Feln was sent to meet with Celeste to verify the artifact's existence, but Feln was surprised to find Zayne Carrick on Odryn, and he was unable to actually locate the talisman. Zayne did have Celeste Morne's key to the Sanctum of the Exalted, so Feln believed that he had killed Morne and taken the key from her. In a communication with Lucien Draay, Feln also came to believe that Zayne had already become possessed by the artifact, although he was unsure why Zayne and Marn Hierogryph were cataloguing the contents of the Sanctum. Draay explained that the pair were probably trying to blackmail The Covenant, and ordered that the Sanctum be destroyed.

Although Feln hesitated, Borjak refused to destroy the building, which had been revered among the Feeorins for generations. He heeded Borjak's words, and set out to confront Zayne. Feln took out his frustrations on the young man, landing several heavy punches into Zayne's chest and claiming that the pain he would feel was payback for the death of Raana Tey. He would have cut off Zayne's head with his lightsaber if Borjak hadn't intervened, invoking the Rime Feeorin and binding both Feln and Zayne to its laws. Zayne got in a few blows of his own before Jarael returned to pick him up. Feln feared that Jarael and Zayne would raid the Sanctum of the Exalted and steal its secrets, thereby exposing the actions of The Covenant, and he set off a series of explosions that reduced the Sanctum to rubble, and destroyed the artifacts it had contained. Angered at the loss of the Sanctum, which freed them from the traditional laws of the Rime Feeorin, Borjak and the surviving Feeorin attacked Feln with spears and knives, tearing the Feeorin apart and ending his reign as the Exalted.

Felpajh 10A
Manufactured by Larjh StarCorporation, this suborbital shuttle provided a great deal of luxury while allowing transport from the ground to a waiting liner. The Felpajh 10A measured 31 meters in length, and could accommodate up to eight passengers and 5 metric tons of cargo. It required a dedicated pilot to operate, and could attain speeds of 750 kilometers per hour in atmosphere. (GFT)

Fel's Day
First comemmorated by Lon Isoto, this holiday was to be observed every year on the planet Brentaal, to mark the efforts of Baron Soontir Fel in defending Brentaal from attack by the New Republic. (XWES)

Felsing
This female Wroonian was known as a conman and swindler. She often posed as a noble lady whose son had been wrongly imprisoned, hoping to have a group of mercenaries or do-gooders help her infiltrate a secure area and steal items of value. Often, watchful mercenaries can see through her disguise, especially after she started skimping on their expenses depsite "her deep concern for her son." She was nearly captured aboard Omze's Incredible Traveling Starport, but managed to escape. (PSPG)

Felstun's Transfer Cable Bar
This dimly-lit bar was located in a space station situated near the planet Devaron, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (COG, OWS)

Felt, Ch'irrk
This legendary Jenet warrior was one of a group which helped bring the wild packs of danchaf under control, thereby opening up the planet Garban for further development. This era of history was known to the Jenet as the Great Conquest. This Jenet is also referred to as Chirr't Ferr. (COG)

Felth, Davin
A member of the Desert Sands stormtrooper unit sweeping Mos Eisley in search of R2-D2 and C-3PO. He was trained at the Imperial facility of Carida, and was among the top recruits in his class. Thus, he was chosen to be one of the first troopers to be assigned to the new AT-AT project, under General Veers. While on a training mission, Davin discovered that the AT-AT was extremely vulnerable due to its long legs. He commanded his walker to "kneel" on all four legs, and was able to defeat all training targets. He reported to Veers that it was possible to "trip" the walker using a cable entwined around its legs, but Veers hid the information in order to advance his own career. When additional stormtroopers were needed to sweep Tatooine in search of the droids, Davin was quickly moved off the AT-AT project and into stromtrooper armor. There, he was assigned to Captain Terrik. (It was Davin who said, "Look, sir. Droids." after the discovery of the droids' escape pod.) However, Davin became increasingly disillusioned with the Empire's regime, having witnessed first-hand the needless destruction of Jawas and Sand People, as well as the wanton execution of the Lars family. The unnecessary execution of Het Nkik pushed Davin over the edge, and when his squadron was ordered to keep the Millennium Falcon from leaving Mos Eisley, Davin shot Terrik in the back, and pretended that he was killed in the crossfire. From then on, he resolved to remain a stormtrooper in order to feed the Alliance key information about the Empire. It was assumed that one of the first informational transfers included the weakness of the AT-AT. (TME, EGC)

Feltran
This senior Alliance agent was known by the alias Feltron when he accompanied Bria Tharen aboard the Queen of Empire. He posed as Bria Lavval's agent, and was killed when Boba Fett tried to capture Bria. (RD)

Felucia
This planet was the location of Shu Mai's personal holdings, during the last decades of the Old Republic. A world covered by fungal forests and green lakes that were filled with strange mixtures of organic chemicals, Felucia was inhabited by a diverse collection of plants and animals. It supported a distinct subspecies of rancor, as well as a variety of spores and funguses that were believed to be unique in the galaxy. Many visitors had trouble breathing upon arrival, because the atmosphere was laden with pollens and microscopic, airborne creatures. Although the planet was the homeworld of the Felucian race, the planet was also colonized by Gossam settlers, who battled the planet's dangerous plant and animal life to establish several cities. They tapped into underground water supplies and managed to create a sustainable agriculture, after ensuring that harmful impurities in the water were removed.

Felucia was singled out by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, during the last stages of the Clone Wars, as one of the Outer Rim worlds that would be targetted by the Grand Army of the Republic. According to Palpatine, the worlds of Mygeeto, Felucia, and Saleucami were a "triad of evil" that served as Separatist bastions. Ostensibly, Palpatine ordered troops to Felucia and several other worlds as a way to end the Outer Rim Sieges and being the Clone Wars to a halt. Although the planet was besieged by the Grand Army of the Republic, the Commerce Guild was able to drive the attackers off. A second wave of attacks was launched when it was learned that Shu Mai had returned to Felucia, with Aayla Secura leading a group of clone troopers, but the Republic soon realized that the information about Shu Mai's location was leaked as a ruse. The Separatists' true target was Coruscant itself, and the information on Felucia - coupled with the news that Count Dooku himself was on Tythe - were meant to lure the Jedi Knights and the Grand Army of the Republic away from Coruscant.

In the wake of the Clone Wars, Jedi Master Shaak Ti fled to Felucia, using the planet's incredible abundance of lifeforms to mask her presence in the Force. Note that the webstrip Reversal of Fortune indicates that Felucia was also the homeworld of the Gossam race. General Secura's forces barely escaped a booby trap, but the resulting explosion released a deadly toxin into the planet's natural water system. (ROF, LEV, SWDB, TFUN)

Felucian
Although this term was used to describe the race of Force-sensitive beings that was native to the planet Felucia, it eventually came to refer to any being who was native to the planet. The average Felucian was a tall, well-muscled humanoid that was distinguished by its fur-covered head and snout. Their dark eyes were punctuated by their bright red iris, and their snout resembled a thick, paddle-like appendage. Felucians spoke in a guttural, primitive language, and used crude weapons fashioned from bones and wood. These simple weapons were unusual in that they seemed to be impervious to lightsabers. In combat, Felucians used their bone weapons as well as a form of telekinesis to attack their enemies. Although they were considered primitive, the Felucians had an extensive relationship with their environment. They tamed Felucia's rancors and its large river beasts for use as mounts on both land and water, giving them access to the deepest parts of the planet's jungles. Rancor riders were given special treatment among the Felucian people, and were distinguished by the elaborate headdresses, created from organic material, they wore into battle.

In the wake of the Clone Wars, the Felucians welcomed Jedi Master Shaak Ti to their planet, and helped her hide from the forces of the Empire. When her presence on Felucia was finally discovered, the Felucians did their best to prevent the Starkiller from locating her, but they were not strong enough to repel him. After Shaak Ti was killed by the Starkiller, the Felucians simply melted back into the jungles and returned to their lives. However, the imbalance in the Force created by Shaak Ti's death led the Felucians to fall victim to the Dark Side of the Force. They tapped into the Dark Side to become more fearsome warriors, although they continued to use primitive weapons. (LAWS, TFUN, TFUG, CWTV39)

Felucian
Although this name was more often used to describe the tall, fur-covered humanoids that inhabited the planet Felucia, it was also the name used to describe the short-statured beings who were also native to the planet. The shorter Felucians had thick legs and short torsos, with arms that hung down almost to the ground. The ovate head of a Felucian sat atop a long neck, and their bodies were covered with tough, yellowish skin. The eyes of these short Felucians were small and beady, and were protected by thick brows. A ridge of bone or scales ran along each side of the back of the skull. (CWTV39)

Felyood, Naz
This Corellian pirate was the owner and captain of the freighter Jynni's Virtue. Captain Felyood, as well as his ship and crew, were lost some six months prior to the Battle of Yavin, when they apparently were shot down over the planet Korriban. The ship's logs, despite the fact that they were recovered from a sealed wall inside Dathka Graush's tomb, showed that the pirates had been intercepted by an Imperial patrol and made a hasty jump into hyperspace. The ship's astromech exploded, dumping them into an unknown part of the galaxy. They were set upon by unseen forces that caused extensive damage to the ship, forcing them to land on Korriban. Luckily, they had obtained enough information on the planet during a sabacc match several years earlier, that they were able to land safely. Felyood and his crew learned of Korriban from a hooded crone, and kept the information around in the hopes of finding a long-lost treasure there. Although Felyood's commentary in the ship's logs indicated that he believed he and his crew had been on Korriban a few days, the timestamps on the log entries revealed that many months had passed. No explanation was ever given for the discrepancy. According to vocal logs, Felyood stumbled upon Graush's tomb and tried to take the jewel known as the Heart of Graush. Thus, he was possessed by the spirit of Dathka Graush, and he unwittingly unleashed the Korriban Zombies. When Babbnod Luroon destroyed the Jynni's Virtue, Felyood found himself separated from the Heart of Graush but still possessed by the Sith spirit. He was forced to wander Korriban forever, never dying and always searching for the Heart of Graush. (PH)

Fem
This was a Sullustan word for "female", and was often used to indicate an unmated female. In general, Fems served as the leaders of Sullustan government and business, until their biological clocks told them it was time to bear offspring. At this time, the Fem gave up her career to start a warren-clan, choosing mates in order to start a family. Over time, the term "fem" came to be used by many races to refer to a female member of the species, and was often used as a formal address when meeting a female for the first time. (MJH, NEGA, DSTR, CN2)

Fem Fortune
This was another name for Dame Fortune. (DSTR)

Female Professional Greenputt Tour
This was one of the primary series of greenputt matches held during the last decades of the Old Republic. Only the best female greenputt players were allowed to compete. (HNN4)

Female-pattern Droid
This was the generic term used to describe any droid or automaton that was programmed with a female personality. (LF3)

Femi
This blue-skinned, female Twi'lek worked at one of the orbital security stations that surrounded and protected the planet Coruscant, during the final years of the Great Galactic War. She was on duty at Orbital Security Station Six when an unidentified vessel arrived in the system, and her team was unaware that the ship carried Lord Angral on his mission to attack Coruscant. Angral ordered his forces to open fire on the station, and Femi and the rest of the crew were killed when the station exploded. (TOP1)

Femi
This was a common component used to create the names given to Cerean males. In general, male Cereans given an individual name, which was added to the names of their father and grandfather. Complete male names were arranged based on harmony and cadence, but the literal meanings were arranged to ensure proper descriptions. The name Femi described a guardian, defender, or protector. (GCG)

Feminine Intuition Channel
This was a slang term used by Han Solo and many other Corellian spacers to describe the way in which a female being seemed to know everything, regardless of the situation. (LSSM)

Femnaught
This was an Ugnaught word for "female", and was often used to indicate an unmated female. (MJH)

Femon
This was a major city found on the planet Gailea, and was the site of the annual Marqua Spas Grand Ball. (SWJ9)

Femon
This woman served as Dolph's Lieutenant during the early days of his bid for power under the name Kuellar. A strikingly beautiful woman with long, black hair and pale skin, she used kohl and other substances to mask her features and give her the appearance of death. Her family was killed when the Eye of Palpatine was awakened after the Battle of Endor. The warship attacked her homeworld and destroyed most of the life there. She felt that the New Republic inadequately addressed the threat of the Eye of Palpatine, and held the Republic responsible for her family's deaths. As Dolph's plans unfolded, Femon chafed at his patience. She felt he was being too soft on the Republic, and challenged his goals and methods. Her support of Dolph began to fade, and scoffed at his use of the Force. In his anger, Dolph/Kuellar used the Force to grip her throat and break her neck. (TNR)

Femware
This was the generic term used to describe any clothing that was designed for a female being. Femware took a variety of forms and shapes, depending on the race or species of the female who would wear the clothing. (DSTR)

Fen
This Imperial customs officer worked at the starport on Quantill City, on the planet Ando, during the height of the New Order. (SWJ11)

Fen, Calk
This being was one of Jabba the Hutt's accountants. Calk Fen was responsible for maintaining the file on Han Solo's debt, during the years following the Battle of Yavin. The debt was initially documented as 12,400 credits, the value of merchandise that was dumped by Solo near The Maw. By the time Jabba was killed on Tatooine - ironically, by the rebels who were trying to rescue Solo - the debt totaled 224,190 credits.

This total included 4,100 credits for the death of Greedo, 125,640 credits for "loss of service" when Solo joined the Alliance, 320 credits in bounty postings, 5,000 credits to cover Boba Fett's operating expenses, 2,000 credits in additional bounty hunter fees, and 74,730 credits in interest (which was calculated at a fifty-percent rate).

Calk Fen went so far as to recommend to Jabba that he forget about capturing Solo, and concentrate on claiming possession of Solo's ship, the Millennium Falcom, which Fen deemed to be quite valuable. (MTS, OWS)

Fen, Urai
This ancient being served as Tyber Zann's chief lieutenant within the Zann Consortium, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. An impsing, alien being, Urai Fen was a cunning warrior whose hand-to-hand combat skills were almost unparalleled in the galaxy. (LAWS)

Fenald
This native of the planet Kuat was Kuat of Kuat's chief of security during the period of the New Order. Outwardly loyal to the end, Fenald was secretly in league with Kodir of Kuhlvult and her plans to take control of Kuat Drive Yards. In an intricate plot, he agreed to betray Kuat to the various ruling families, thereby making way for Kodir to take his place. It was Fenald who arranged - through Nil Posondum - to have Kodir's sister Kateel kidnapped. Years later, Kodir began manipulated Kuat of Kuat, hoping to oust him from control of KDY and take it for herself. Fenald played his part well, and Kuat was unaware of his deceit until the families tried to wrest control of KDY for themselves. Fenald continued to work behind the scenes for Kodir while she worked for Kuat, furthering her own attempt to gain control of KDY, until he demanded money in return for keeping her plans a secret. Kodir decided that Fenald had stopped being useful, and slit his throat in a basck-alley bar. (MA, SLS, HM)

Fend'Allomin
This pale-skinned Twi'lek was rescued from slavery by Jedi Master Vhiin Thorla, and became one of the handful of Twi'leks who lived in The Enclave, during the era of the Clone Wars. (TS)

Fenic
This man was one of the many rebels who joined Dunlan in opposing the Imperial occupation of Ahakista, during the months following the Battle of Yavin. However, Fenic saw no easy way to break the Empire's control of the planet, and decided to turn Dunlan in for the bounty on his head. Although Fenic managed to trap Dunlan in an alley, he was approached from behind by Wyl Tarson, who was on Ahakista to meet with ther ebel leader. Tarson quickly disarmed Fenic, and was surprised when Dunlan let Fenic go free. (SWRAG)

Fen'ika
This was a nickname used by Kal Skirata, Goran Beviin, and other Mandalorians to describe Fenn Shysa. (LF8, RC66)

Fenlish
This male Chiss served as a security officer at one of the Chiss training facilities during the early years of the New Republic. (GMR7)

Fenn
This was one of the many names given to male Bothans. In the Bothan language, it meant "nimble" - or, more literally, "slippery." (GCG, WOTC)

Fenn
This was one of the many influential Twi'lek clans, native to the planet Ryloth. The name meant "industrious" or "hard-working" in the Twi'leki language. (ROP, GCG)

Fenn, Byra
This woman was trained as a medical professional, and operated the Delgas Medical Supplies facility on Sel Zonn Station, during the early years of the New Order. Despite her proper appearance, Doctor Fenn had several contacts within the station's underworld, and was indebted to the information broker known as Switch. (DD01)

Fenn, Fiav
This female Sullustan was an officer in the naval forces of the Galactic Alliance, and served as an aide to Admiral Matric Klauskin aboard the battle carrier Dodonna during the years following the war against the Yuuzhan Vong. Fenn remained aboard the Dodonna after Klauskin suffered a breakdown and was relieved of duty, serving under Admiral Tarla Limpan during the GA's blockade of the Corellian System. Because Limpan already had an aide, Colonel Fenn was assigned to starfighter coordination duty. Limpan was quite pleased with her work, but was surprised when Fenn recommended another course of action when the Dodonna was attacked by a group of Bothan Assault Cruisers.

Fenn's first-hand knowledge of space combat proved invaluable, as much of Limpan's experience had come in the relative peace that followed the Yuuzhan Vong war. Admiral Limpan had ordered all ships to jump to the rendezvous location known as Point Bleak, but Fenn realized that the jumps of ships from six separate zones would allow the enemy to track their escape vectors and locate them later. Fenn suggested that all GA vessels jump to any safe point beyond the Corellian System, then jump to Point Bleak. (LF1, LF4)

Fenn, Kh'aris
This well-muscled, handsome Twi'lek was known to Vilmahr Grahrk simply as his "patron." He was the son of Ro Fenn, and was forced by his father to take the blame for Pol Secura's death. Ro Fenn believed that this would allow him to remain alive, despite the Twi'lek law that required all surviving members of a head-clan to walk into the Bright Lands to make way for a new head-clan. Kh'aris was exiled for his supposed crime, although he had been assured by his father that the exile would be temporary. While in exile - and exile he believed would be shortened by his father - Kh'aris began working with smugglers and spicelords to take control of the production of ryll spice. This gave his a fortune in credits, which he used to set his own plans in motion. Kh'aris, however, believed that he was kept waiting too long, and began to make plans to take control of Ryloth by himself. To this end, Kh'aris took a role in the employ of Count Dooku during the years following the Battle of Naboo, working to solidify his power base. Kh'aris then arranged to have the Morgukai warriors Tsyr and Bok capture Nat Secura, and planned to hold the boy hostage until he received his demands. He was able to capture the Jedi Master Tholme as well, who tried to stop the kidnapping. Then, at the advice of Count Dooku, Kh'aris reappeared on Ryloth and demanded that Ro Fenn and Lon Secura turn over control of Lessu to him alone. He demanded an end to his exile, and told the two leaders that they should support him as the ruler of all of Ryloth. Lon Secura, knowing that his son's life was at stake, acceded almost immediately. Ro Fenn balked, but Kh'aris had had enough of his obese father. He exiled Ro Fenn, and set about to assume control. However, Lon Secura had secretly met with the other clan leaders on Ryloth, and they agreed to send Kh'aris and his father into the Bright Lands. Kh'aris fled Ryloth, forcing Vilmahr Grahrk to transport him off the planet to meet with Count Dooku, where he was forced to admit that their plans for Ryloth had failed. In an act of revenge, Kh'aris took the credits he had been given by Dooku and used them as collateral on a bounty for any Jedi captured or killed, as a way to regain favor with Dooku. The only takers were the Crimson Nova chapter, whose leader, Mika, had a personal vendetta against the Jedi. These plans also fell through when a group of Jedi Master, led by Mace Windu, infiltrated The Rig and learned of Kh'aris's plans. When Dooku discovered his duplicity, he dispatched Quinlan Vos to eliminate Kh'aris. Vos took Kh'aris's head for proof of his death. (ROP, RSF)

Fenn, Rh'ajah
This Twi'lek was a relative of Kh'aris Fenn. Rh'ajah was incapacitated by Quinlan Vos, some seventeen years after the Battle of Geonosis, so that the Dark Jedi could infiltrate the lair of Kh'aris Fenn and eliminate the treacherous Twi'lek. (RSF)

Fenn, Ro
This obese Twi'lek male was the leader of his clan, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. He was a member of the Twi'leki head-clan when Pol Secura was killed, and was to be forced to walk into the Bright Lands by Twi'leki law. Ro Fenn hired Vilmahr Grahrk to find a way to ensure his life was not sacrificed. Villie suggested kidnapping Nat Secura, the son of Lon Secura and the one Twi'lek who stood to benefit the most from Ro Fenn's death. Ro agreed, but was unaware that, behind the scenes, his exiled son Kh'aris Fenn actually carried out the kidnapping. Ro then confronted Lon Secura, planning to use the disappearance of Nat Secura as a bargaining chip, when Kh'aris decided to come out of hiding. Kh'aris, angry that his father had not worked to overturn his exile, forced Ro Fenn and Lon Secura to agree to his demands. Ro Fenn refused, but Kh'aris had had enough. He exiled Ro Fenn, and set out to take control of the planet. Before Kh'aris could put his plans fully into motion, Lon Secura secretly met with other clan leaders. He presented all the evidence of the treachery of Ro Fenn as well as Kh'aris Fenn, and the combined leaders decided to exile both Fenns to the Bright Lands. Ro was captured immediately, while Kh'aris escaped. (ROP)

Fenn, Slerog
This greedy Rodian tried to take financial control of the Gelgelar Free Port by offering services equal to those of Loro Ecls, but at a reduced price. Fenn had a number of criminal connections, which helped pay for Fenn's Landing and his repair facility - known as Fenn's Warehouse - and to help offset his cutthroat prices. (SWJ14, PSPG)

Fenn, Swilja
This female Twi'lek was one of the young Jedi Knights who were trained by Luke Skywalker at the Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4. She was dispatched to Cujicor during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, but was captured by the Peace Brigade and incarcerated. She was to be turned over to the Yuuzhan Vong in exchange for a cease-fire. She was brought before Warmaster Tsavong Lah himself, and refused to bow to his will. Lah tortured her for several minutes before she died of her injuries. (EVC, SWI57, REC)

Fenn, Tchaw
This pudgy Bothan considered himself a broker, and worked from a base on the city of Friz Harammal during the era of the Battle of Naboo. Fenn had worked exclusively for Riboga the Hutt until Riboga retired to Nal Hutta. Fenn then went into business for himself, buying and selling information on his own. (LFC)

Fenn, Vykan
This was the name of a noted Umbaran individual. (UANT)

Fenner, Rivoc
This xeno-biologist was credited with the first discovery of the creature known later as Fenner's Rock. It was said that he tripped over the first one he ever encountered, believing it to be a simple pile of stones. (COG)

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

Fennesa
This rocky planet was colonized by a group of beings who brought a herd of nerfs with them. The nerfs evolved over time to survive in the rocky terrain. (WOTC, NEGA)

This body regulated the raising and production of nerfs on the planet Fennesa, during the last decades of the Old Republic. (WOTC)

Fenni, Raskta
This woman was one of the best Echani duelists of her time, many years before the Great Sith War. Many types of bladed weapons were named or manufactured in her honor, including a foil that had cortosis woven into the steel of the blade. However, mass-production for use by other Echani warriors revealed that these foils were poorly manufactured, and many died with the cortosis didn't adequately deflect lightsaber attacks. (KOTOR)

Fenni, Raskta
This Echani duelist was considered the greatest non-Jedi marial artist of his time, during the years surrounding the Battle of Ruusan. (DBRT)

Fenn's Landing
This was the name of the docking platform owned and operated by Slerog Fenn on the planet Gelgelar. It was one of seven docking platforms Fenn tried to build on the swampy planet, in an effort to horn in on the business of Loro Ecls. However, Fenn's Landing was the only one he could afford to fully complete, and it was quite often a spacer's second choice for landing. (PSPG)

Fenn's Warehouse
This was the starship repair facility established in Gelgelar Free Port by Slerog Fenn, in an effort to squeeze out Loro Ecls. (SWJ14)

Fennut

Feps, Deggar
This scout managed to get himself in trouble with the Hutts during the early years of the New Order. He angered Sottos, a Hutt crimelord, in the Hutt's personal residence on Nal Hutta, and only barely escaped with his life. He hoped to escape from Nal Hutta aboard the Lost Lady, but was intercepted by the spy droid NEK-01. He agreed to turn over information on Sottos' dealing to a group of freelance mercenaries, provided that could get him off the planet. The mercenaries managed to help the crew of the Lost Lady avoid capture by several bounty hunters, and Feps fled into the warrens of Nar Shaddaa. (WOTC)

Feq
This man worked with Dannen Lifehold for two years, serving as the mechanic aboard the Lifeline. Feq became the brother Dannen never had, and they became close friends. However, during "routine" Imperial customs inspection, Feq objected to the officer's confiscation of modified engine parts. One of the stormtroopers supporting the inspector shot Feq dead. Dannen held a small wake for his friend before setting the body adrift in space, and never forgot the Imperials' rash actions. (SWJ1)

Feraa
This man and his companion, Suyin, tried to deliver a load of spice to Vogga the Hutt on Nar Shaddaa, during the years following the Great Sith War. They had been given a detailed map of the undercity of the moon, and planned to bypass the normal security checkpoints by traveling through various vents and tunnels to reach Vogga's lair. Unfortunately, the buildings of Nar Shaddaa created enough ambient electrical interference that their hand-held maps failed to operate properly. Adding to Suyin's problems was the fact that Feraa had set off down a side pathway to lay mines on their proposed routes, and Suyin was badly injured when he stumbled upon them. Unable to find his way, Suyin became lost and eventually died within the vents. Although he didn't know it, Feraa also became hopeless lost, and died in the vents as well. Their corpses were discovered by The Exile, shortly after the Jedi Civil War, when he was on Nar Shaddaa in search of Jedi Master Zez-Kai Ell. (KOTOR2)

Feragriff
This creature was native to the planet Batorine, and was hunted by the Blood Carvers during a coming-of-age ceremony. When the Blood Carvers were relocated to Coruscant, following attacked by the Lontars, they brought with them several feragriffs, which were placed in preserves on one of Coruscant's moons. Thus, the tradition of hunting a feragriff to prove one's adulthood was preserved. (RP)

Feral
This Imperial escort frigate was commanded by Lev Kepzen during the height of the New Order. (FOP)

Feral City
This was the name used to describe the sections of the Factory District of Coruscant that were controlled by groups of feral droids. (CN1)

Feral Droid
This was the term used to describe the somewhat independent droids that existed in the Factory District of Coruscant, during the early years of the New Order. These droids were not owned by any being, having been abandoned or discarded over the decades. Many of these droids were construction droids and demolition units that had been left in the area after the factories were closed down. It was believed that some form of computer virus or worm found its way into the control systems of the droid, and this virus managed to override their primary programming and turn the droids into killing machines that viciously destroyed any organic life forms they encountered. It was later learned that the droids had been exposed to increasingly higher levels of radiation over many decades, as the various systems that once supported the industry of the Factory District fell into disrepair and began leaking radioactive materials into the environment. This long-term exposure may have slowly driven the feral droids insane.

Although there was a great variety among the types of feral droids, all were similar in that they had been heavily modified from their original conditions. Most were covered with random patterns of discarded technology, with bits of circuit boards and vacuum tubes covering their outer shells. Individual droids were distinguished by the unique attachments that were found on their bodies, such as electrical discharge vanes and glittering parity lights. (CN1)

Feraleechi Onetime Loop
This was a specialized form of encryption, which involved a multiple-step process to get to the final message. They were denoted as "onetime loops" because they were specific to a certain's day's news on the HoloNet. A keyword in the morning news provided a way to partially decipher the code, revealing a series of numbers that referred to a textbook that was available on the HoloNet. These textbooks were usually incredibly boring to read, which kept them out of the mainstream. Once the text was discovered, it was translated from Basic into Symbian. Then, every sixth word was transposed to reveal the original message. This system of securing messages was adopted by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the height of the Clone Wars, to ensure that even the most basic communication was not deciphered by the forces of the Old Republic. (MBS)

Ferals
This was the term used to describe the collection of beings of all races who were virtually enslaved by the World Brain that was installed on the planet Coruscant by the Yuuzhan Vong. After the end of the war between the Galactic Alliance and the Yuuzhan Vong, the World Brain was allowed to remain alive and active, to help continue the terraforming it had been installed to manage, but with the goal of integrating the needs of all species, not just the Yuuzhan Vong. In order to understand what was happening across the entire planet, the World Brain used its influence to mentally enslave hordes of lower-class beings to serve as its eyes and ears. These beings became known as the Ferals, since they lived the life of uncivilized creatures in the depths of the cityscape.

When the World Brain was accidentally poisoned and died, some ten years after the end of the war against the Yuuzhan Vong, many feared that the Ferals might riot. However, many Ferals seemed to simply lose the ability to control their baser instincts. (LF2, LF3)

Ferasi, Maris
This Corellian woman served as Dubrak Qennto's first mate aboard the Bargain Hunter, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. She and Rak also developed something of a romantic relationship, although they kept it to themselves. Maris and Rak, along with their other crewmate, Jorj Car'das, were captured by then Force Commander Thrawn and the Springhawk some five years before the onset of the Clone Wars, after they made a blind jump into hyperspace to avoid being captured by Progga the Hutt. Where Rak chose to sulk about the situation, Maris joined Car'das in taking in various aspects of the Chiss culture, especially learning the Cheunh language from Thrawn himself, in exchange for teaching him about the Basic language. She found the stoicism and loyalty of the Chiss people a refreshing change from the corruption and greed of the Old Republic. However, she also found herself sharing some of Qennto's frustration when, after three months' of captivity, they were left behind at Crustai while Thrawn took Car'das on another mission, this time to eliminate the Outbound Flight project and the Vagaari. Neither Maris nor Qennto had no idea what was happening, and Car'das later lied and explained that Thrawn had allowed Outbound Flight to escape. They were eventually freed and allowed to return to the Old Republic, where they were able to pay off their debt to Drixo the Hutt and resume their normal smuggling activities. (OF)

Ferensil, Bal
This Bothan succeeded the Twi'leki sisters, Mala and Aola Blen, as the ruler of the trading houses on the planet Thaere Privo, some years before the Battle of Naboo. After the sisters' death, Ferensil used his political connections to assume control, then began working the remnants of Riboga the Hutt's operations to secure the system. Through Ferensil's machinations, the Thaereian Military was able to establish a strong base of operations within the Cularin System, apparently with the consent of Nirama, who seemed to need as much protection as he could obtain. (LFCW)

Ferfer
This Ryn worked as a guide on the planet Caluula, when he wasn't serving as an resistance operative for the Ryn network of spies. As a member of the Ryn network, he was known simply by the codename Gatherer 164, and was based out of the planet Balmorra. During the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Ferfer and his Rodian partner, Sasso, assisted Team Meloque in destroying the yammosk which had been installed on Caluula. During the mission, the team felt that it was being led into a trap, but their fears weren't borne out until they reached the location where the yammosk was kept. Ferfer went to hide the timbus used by the team, but encountered a hidden group of Yuuzhan Vong Slayers. The lead warrior lashed out with his amphistaff, slicing open Ferfer's belly and spilling his guts. Ferfer died almost instantly. (UF)

Fergal
This was an expletive often used by Vilmarh Grarhk. (DRKN)

Ferlani
This was one of the largest criminal families found on the planet Esseles, during the last decades of the Old Republic. (CCW)

Ferlani, Luthus
This man was the leader of the Ferlani criminal family, based on Esseles, during the last years of the Old Republic and into the era of the New Order. He spent much of his youth representing the Ferlani family on business throughout Darpa Sector and within Hutt Space. Outwardly, Luthus was a kindly gentleman who could have been your best friend's father. However, Luthus could be terrifying when he was angry or disappointed, and his subordinates were quick to please him. (CCW)

Fernandin, Lexi
This man founded the Fernandin Scouting Expedition corporation during the last years of the Old Republic, and fought to maintain his independence and operation during the New Order. (GG2)

Fernandin Scouting Expedition
This galactic survey group was given permission to find a suitable planet on which to relocate Weytin's Colony, after they left Setor. The moons of Yavin were among the possible sites chosen. Fernandin had to receive a special permit from the Empire in order to carry out their search, and were later given permission to take over the remnants of the Massassi Base on Yavin 4. They maintained the structure for several years, until their funding ran out, and they were forced to cede the Great Temple to the New Republic. (GG2, SWI92)

Fernooda
This Dug served as the liaison between General Ashaar Khorda and the outside world. It was Fernooda who employed both Jango Fett and Zam Wesell to retrieve the Infant of Shaa. (JF, ZW)

Fern-tree
This unusual species of tree was discovered on a remote, jungle-covered planetoid near the Maw cluster of black holes by Lady Olaris Rhea and her Sith crew, during their search for the Sith meditation sphere known as Ship. Fern-trees were one of the small number of plants encountered by the Sith that were not predatory or carnivorous. (FJ3)

Fero Xyn
This vicious predator, once native to the home galaxy of the Yuuzhan Vong, was the only creature from their home which had compatible genetic material to that of a vornskr. The initial Yuuzhan Vong attempts to create a Jedi-hunting creature from pure vornskr stock proved only mildly successful, due mainly to the resulting beast's lack of ferocity. The fore xyn, however, more than made up for this lack, and it was already conditioned to respond to the commands of a Yuuzhan Vong warrior. The resulting hybrid was called a voxyn, and was extremely successful at hunting down and killing Jedi Knights. Unfortunately, the resulting hybrid was incapable of reproduction, requiring that the creation of more voxyn required the cloning of the original "queen". (NJOSB)

Ferob
An Imperial Captain, Ferob commanded the Victory-class Star Destroyer Iron Fist, under the watchful eye of Grand Admiral Thrawn, in the Unknown Regions. (DFRSB)

Ferr, Selas
This man was a member of the rebel underground on Jastro III during the Galactic Civil War. He was in love with the daughter of the Imperial Governor, but they were often forbidden to meet. They found an unexpected ally in an agent named Alexan, who forwarded messages between them. Alexan later agreed to help Ferr break a group or rebels out of the Imperial prison, provided that Ferr took the Governor's daughter with them. Ferr agreed, and the rescue attempt was successful. However, Alexan was seriously wounded in the escape, and later died of his wounds. Ferr and the Governor's daughter later learned that Alexan was, in fact, the Governor himself. (HR)

Ferra
A witch of the Singing Mountain clan on Dathomir, she was killed by a Nightsister spell which snapped her neck. (CPL)

Ferrelian Ant
This species of insect was known to be particularly industrious and hard-working. (E1A5)

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

Ferret, Orion
This gaunt man was a noted gunrunner who worked from a base aboard the Bazarre space station. Luke Skywalker and Lando Calrissian caught up with Ferret shortly after the Battle of Hoth, to purchase a flight of stolen TIE Fighters from him. The TIE Fighters were later used to take the Imperial outpost on Spindrift. Ferret was often accompanied by a tiny, octopus-like creature that was his pet. He tried his best to swindle the Alliance out of their credits, and even sent Luke and Lando to Patch-4 without warning them about the Watcher Beasts. Ferret then tried to incapacitate Chewbacca, but the Wookiee managed to break free and catch Ferret before he could escape. Luke and Lando returned to the Bazaare station with the TIE Fighters, much to Ferret's dismay. Ferret was allowed to go free, but the Alliance kept a close eye on his activities. (LTA3, LTA5, MC59)

Ferrhast
This planet was the site of the Imperial Institute of Higher Studies. (SWJ5)

Ferrier, Niles
A master thief, Niles Ferrier was known throughout the galaxy as a starship hijacker. He had a great deal of skill in the use of computer linkups, and often stole ships by simply reworking a spaceport's duty roster to clear the area when he found a good ship. He was often accompanied by four or five human smugglers, a Defel wraith, and a Verpine. His passion for carrababba tabac laced with armudu spice was also widely known, and the unmistakeable combination often announced his presence. He put his starship stealing skills to good use during Grand Admiral Thrawn's reign of terror, stealing ships and selling them to Thrawn and the Empire for a large profit. While this earned him a measure of gratitude from the Empire, it left Ferrier out of the normal circle of smugglers who were beginning to band together against the newly-powerful Imperial forces. Ferrier later helped Thrawn infiltrate the blossoming smuggler's alliance, meeting with Talon Karrde and a larger group on Trogan. It was on Trogan that he managed to bribe Lieutenant Reynol Kosk into attacking the meeting, a move that directly countermanded Thrawn's own orders. When Kosk and his squad were all killed in the fighting, Thrawn could barely contain his anger, but realized Ferrier might still be of use. He ordered Ferrier's Defel companion to infiltrate the Wild Karrde and plant a datacard containing false information that implicated Karrde in the attack at Trogan. Thrawn then detained Mazzic for a short time, hinting that one of the smugglers had set up the ambush. When the smugglers met shortly afterward, Mazzic confronted Karrde about the datacard. Karrde continued talking, until Ferrier blurted out that Karrde had paid Kosk to set up the ambush. When Mazzic realized that none of the other smugglers knew what was supposed to be on the datacard, and when Karrde explained that Ferrier hadn't even been invited, Ferrier realized that he had made a bbig mistake. He tried to escape by pulling a thermal detonator from his sleeve, forcing his way to his own ship and fleeing into space. (DFR, DFRSB, TLC)

Ferrin, Jrahl
This alien was the leader of a small-time criminal gang that roamed the planet Daslkehnt during the early years of the New Order. (GG11)

Ferro
This was the name of the capital world of the Ferro Systems. Its year encompassed three standard years. (RP)

Ferro Systems
A collection of star systems settled by human colonists, the Ferro Systems were reclusive and isolationist in their stance. Although they elected to join the galactic community of the Old Republic, they were not always compliant with its laws. (RP)

Ferroan
This was the name given to the near-human colonists who settled the Ferro Systems. They were a proud people, but quite reclusive and independent. These tall, strong-looking near-humans were known for their milky-white to icy blue skin, their unusual eye coloration, and the fact that they rarely traveled far from their homeworlds. Most known Ferroans inhabited the planet Zonama Sekot, although it was generally believed that the Ferroans were brought to Zonama Sekot, not native to it. This group of Ferroans was employed by the original Magister as caretakers of the planet, using their natural instinct to remain separated from the rest of the galaxy to ensure Zonama Sekot was well-hidden from casual observers. Generations later, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, the Shaper Nen Yim came to believe that the Yuuzhan Vong might have evolved into something like the Ferroans, had they not destroyed their homeworld of Yuuzhan'tar generations earlier. With the discovery that Zonama itself was the offspring of Yuuzhan'tar, the link between the living planet and the Yuuzhan Vong became obvious. After the Yuuzhan Vong surrendered to the Galactic Alliance at Coruscant some five years after their invasion began, it was decided that the remaining Yuuzhan Vong would live on Zonama Sekot. The Ferroans were surprisingly open to this decision, especially in light of the number of times the Yuuzhan Vong had tried to destroy Zonama Sekot. A few members of the younger generation of Ferroans thought the idea was improper, and chose to leave Zonama Sekot and travel to other worlds. (RP, FH3, UF)

Ferroan Spinach
This nutritious, leafy, green vegetable was native to the planet Ferro. (OWS)

Ferrocarbon
This incredibly strong, durable material was used to form the deepest structural sections of the buildings on Coruscant. (RP)

Ferroconcrete
A material used to form walkways, ferroconcrete - more often referred to as ferrocrete - was made from a mixture of concrete and steel-like materials which were bonded at the molecular level. For added strength, duranium rebar was often added to ferroconcrete pads. (LCF, E1A1, CN1)

Ferrocongregate
This highly-explosive material was used in the construction of core bombs, during the last decades of the Old Republic. It was used in conjunction with magnopium to create the intense blast produced by the core bomb. (TAE)

Ferrocrete
see Ferroconcrete (FH2)

Ferroh
This male Cathar was one of the Jedi Knights who were rescued by the actions of Zayne Carrick and his friends at Flashpoint, during the final stages of the Manadalorian Wars. Ferroh later traveled to the planet Wor Tandell, where he had heard that Zayne had landed, in an attempt to introduce Zayne to Captain Telettoh of the Republic warship Testament. Ferroh had joined the Jedi Expeditionary Task Force, and was working with Captain Telettoh to determine what course of action the Jedi Order could take in ending the conflict. The Jedi Council had decided to enter the war after Ferroh and a group of Jedi Masters experienced a shared vision on the planet Cathar. Ferroh believed that the Mandalorians had been behind the capture of his people, based on stories he had heard from Cathar refugees, and the Jedi task force was saddened to learn that the rumors might be true. In the vision, which took place when the Jedi reached a remote beach, they were taken back some twelve years earlier, when a group of Cathar emerged from the forests at a run, followed by a group of Mandalorian marauders led by Cassus Fett who were trying to drive them into the sea. When the vision broke, the Jedi had witnessed Cassus Fett burn the Cathar settlement to the ground, incinerating every last Cathar on the beach. The evidence they needed was found by the Jedi named Revan, who pulled a Mandalorian helmet from the sand. The helmet had once belonged to a Mandalorian named Ke'serim, who had tried to stand up for the Cathar, but was killed as well. Revan put the helmet on and vowed to wear it until the Mandalorians were finally defeated. (KOR14)

Ferros VI
An Imperial prison camp was maintained on this planet during the Galactic Civil War. (DSTC)

Ferrous Aurora Nebula
This area of dense, reddish gas was located near the Yavin System. During the height of the Galactic Civil War, travel through the nebula was considered to be dangerous, due to the presence of the Ni'lyahin Smugglers in the area. (SWGAL, SWG2P)

Ferrous Aurora Quadrant
This area of space surrounding the Yavin System was dominated by the Ferrous Aurora Nebula. (SWG2P)

Ferro-worm
This disgusting creature was native to the undercity of Coruscant, and was named for the fact that it burrowed into the ferrocrete used in the construction of many buildings. (YDR)

Ferry 1
This transport vessel was part of a group of Habeen vessels that were sent to a rendezvous with Imperial Admiral Zaarin, during the months that followed the Battle of Hoth, when Habeen leaders agreed to sell a new hyperdrive technology to the Empire. Although the primary cargo aboard the Ferry group was the new hyperdrive systems, Maarek Stele and his fellow pilots discovered other forms of technology hidden among the drives. The presence of this technology gave Stele a reason to doubt Admiral Zaarin's loyalties to the Empire. (TIE, TIEP)

Ferry 2
This transport vessel was part of a group of Habeen vessels that were sent to a rendezvous with Imperial Admiral Zaarin, during the months that followed the Battle of Hoth, when Habeen leaders agreed to sell a new hyperdrive technology to the Empire. Although the primary cargo aboard the Ferry group was the new hyperdrive systems, Maarek Stele and his fellow pilots discovered other forms of technology hidden among the drives. The presence of this technology gave Stele a reason to doubt Admiral Zaarin's loyalties to the Empire. (TIEP)

Ferry 3
This transport vessel was part of a group of Habeen vessels that were sent to a rendezvous with Imperial Admiral Zaarin, during the months that followed the Battle of Hoth, when Habeen leaders agreed to sell a new hyperdrive technology to the Empire.

Ferthyn, Borus
This disheveled, old man was known as the local madman in the city of Gadrin, on the planet Cularin, in the years following the Battle of Naboo. While he was discovered to have some sensitivity to the Force, Borus himself was unaware of the trait. He was quite literally mad, and was generally disregarded by every other inhabitant of Gadrin. He wandered the streets and alleyways of the city, eking out a living from the scraps and meager donations of the populace.

At some point prior to the onset of the Clone Wars, Ferthyn was arrested by Lieutenant Dalin of the Thaereian Military. His arrest set of a wave of rebellion in the city, and Dalin believed that he could put a stop to it by executing Ferthyn. However, Ferthyn's death only sparked more heated rebellion, and many Gadrin natives took it upon themselves to strike out at various Thaereian installations.

Ferthyn's execution was broadcast on many local newsfeeds, and became known as The Massacre in the popular press. (EOS1, NET1)

Fertility of the Soil, Challenge of the Sky

Feryl
This Givin was one of the many Mind Walkers encountered by Luke and Ben Skywalker, at Sinkhole Station near the Maw cluster of black holes, some two years after the end of the Second Galactic Civil War. A former Jedi, Feryl agreed to work with Seek Ryontarr to assist Luke when he attempted to go mind walking, as part of Luke's effort to understand what had happened to cause Jacen Solo to become the Sith Lord known as Darth Caedus. Feryl agreed to accompany Ryontarr when he took Luke mind walking, and the two beings escorted Luke through the two challenges they encountered at the Font of Power and the Pool of Knowledge. They spent weeks of real time mind walking, during which time their physical bodies continued to weaken. Ben Skywalker tried to tend them as best he could, but Feryl's body, like that of Ryontarr, eventually died while they were gone. However, their Force presences remained, still walking in the Force with Luke, who still had questions to ask them. (FJ3)

Feshu
This small mammal was known for its docile, almost resigned nature. (RC66)

Fest
This world was the primary planet in the Fest System, located in the Atrivis Sector of the galaxy. The planet served as a Separatist base during the early stages of the Clone Wars, and was one of the first places that phrik was developed for use in military armor and weaponry. The base on Fest was eventually overtaken by the Grand Army of the Republic. The inhabitants of the planet were nearly always at war with themselves or their neighbors on Mantooine. During the era of the New Order, they disliked Emperor Palpatine even more, and were beginning to rebel when the Empire attacked Mantooine. Their distrust for each other, coupled with a lack of communications facilities, kept the inhabitants of Fest from warning the Mantooinians about the attack. The geography of Fest was dominated by steep mountain ranges and deep valleys. Fest was the site of an Imperial weapons research facility during the Galactic Civil War, located atop one of the planet's tallest mountains. (RASB, DF, RSG, RCTZ)

Fest Resistance Group
Formed by Travia Chan during the height of the New Order, this band of rebels was one of the first resistance groups to earn victories against the Imperial forces that were controlling the Atrivis Sector of the galaxy. The FRG eventually merged with the Liberators on Mantooine to form the Atrivis Resistance Group, which later joined the Alliance and became the Atrivis Sector Force. (RASB)

Fester Lung
This was the more common name of Ascomycetous Pneumoconiosis. (SWI83)

Fett, Arla
This woman was Jango Fett's sister. After Jango agreed to serve as the genetic template for the clone troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic, Arla was captured and held at the Valorum Center, in an attempt to prevent her from exposing Jango's role. She was held there for many years, and eventually came to calling herself Arla Vhett, in order to distance herself from her brother. (RC66)

Fett, Boba
Originally from the planet Kamino, Boba Fett was the son of noted bounty hunter Jango Fett. When Jango was first contacted about developing a clone army, one of the only things he requested as payment was an unadulterated clone to have as a son. Boba was the first of the clones produced by the Kaminoans, some ten years before the onset of the Clone Wars, and Jango loved him with all his being. He trained Boba to be self-reliant, and often took the child on bounty-hunting missions. This self-reliance was put to the test when Jango was killed during the Battle of Geonosis. Young Boba Fett fled the planet in his father's ship, Slave I, and spent several years trying to avenge Jango's death at Geonosis. Note that Legacy of the Force: Bloodlines indicates that Boba Fett was thirteen, not ten, at the time of Jango's death. At the age of twelve, he had managed to establish himself as one of the galaxy's best bounty hunters, and had even performed several jobs for Jabba the Hutt. Boba nearly had his chance to kill Mace Windu, after infiltrating the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, but was unable to complete his mission. His presence on Coruscant earned him the recognition of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, however, who took the young hunter into his confidence. Fett was even recommended to Inquisitor Malorum, during the hunt for Feros Olin on Bellassa.

Little was known of what happened to him over the next twenty years. It was rumored that he returned to his father's homeworld of Concord Dawn, where he was known as the Journeyman Protector Jaster Mereel. There were also rumors that Fett was once an extremely dedicated Imperial stormtrooper who, for reasons known only to him, attacked and killed his superior officer. Further accounts, including some that were propagated by the leaders of the Alliance, claimed that Fett was a veteran of the Clone Wars. Although Fett did nothing to put the records straight because they added to his mystique and hid his true past, he later revealed that he did serve as a Journeyman Protector, but was exiled from Concord Dawn for killing a superior officer. In his travels, Boba Fett acquired a full suit of Mandalorian Shock Trooper armor to replace the suit worn by his father years before. The unique weapons systems of the armor suited a number of purposes, including enhancement of his arsenal as well as increasing the mystique behind his reputation. He also acquired his father's Kuat Systems Engineering Firespray-class ship, Slave I and had it heavily modified at Kuat Drive Yards. Many of the modifications to Slave I were developed by Kuat of Kuat himself, and helped further the design of other starships.

Fett employed the best microsurgeons in the galaxy to remove as many of the pain-sensing nerves from his body. He also had many of his body's pleasure sensors eliminated as well. As his proficiency as a bounty hunter grew, so did his reputation. It was even believed that Grand Moff Willhuf Tarkin employed Boba Fett to hunt down Han Solo, shortly after Solo's defection, in order to prove to the galaxy that the Empire would not tolerate any breech of loyalty. This led to his being hired by Kud'ar Mub'at, in an intricate plan to eliminate the Bounty Hunters Guild. The plan, masterminded by Prince Xizor, involved Fett actually joining the Guild, which he had felt was too restrictive in its bylaws. The plan worked, resulting in the breaking of the Guild into two rival factions. During this time, Fett also discovered the schemes of Kuat of Kuat, and would have exposed the leader of Kuat Drive Yards if Kuat hadn't been intent on his own suicide.

Fett later became one of the bounty hunters commissioned by Darth Vader to hunt down the Millennium Falcon. This occurred at about the same time as Jabba The Hutt hired him to capture Solo. These two commissions fit together perfectly for Boba Fett, who used his knowledge of Han Solo's background to predict Han's maneuver of floating away with the Avenger's garbage, and tracked the Falcon to Bespin and Cloud City. Boba Fett then took possession of Han's frozen body and returned to Tatooine, only to be intercepted over the desert world by IG-88. In a brief firefight, Boba Fett was able to destroy IG-88's ship, but Slave I was so damaged that landing on Tatooine would be impossible. So, Fett travelled to the Outer Rim world of Zhar, and landed on Gall. There, he was further beset by bounty hunters, including Zuckuss and 4-LOM, who wanted to steal Solo's body.

Fett managed to escape them as well, only to be assaulted by Alliance starfighters from Rogue Squadron. Fett escaped them as well and transported Solo to Jabba the Hutt, collecting the large bounty on Han's head to go with his Imperial payment. It was at time that Fett discovered Ree Duptom's personal starship adrift and Duptom himself dead. He took possession of the droid in Duptom's hold and the young woman in his holding cell. The droid contained data on Kuat of Kuat's plot to discredit Prince Xizor, and the woman turned out to be Neelah. Jabba then offered him a large sum of money to remain on Tatooine as his personal bounty hunter. This allowed him to hide Neelah from the rest of the galaxy, but Fett stipulated that he would remain a freelance bounty hunter on retainer. Although the work was extremely simple for Fett, he believed that there would be a rescue attempt made on Solo, and he wanted to be there when it happened.

After slightly underestimating Leia's disguise as Boussh, Boba Fett's instincts went into overdrive, and he was ready when Luke Skywalker showed up at Jabba's palace. Unfortunately for Boba Fett, when Luke, Han, and Chewie were about to be thrown into the Sarlacc pit, Fett's rocket backpack was accidentally activated by the then-blind Han Solo. Fett careened into the side of Jabba's sail barge and was knocked unconscious. Fett was thought to have been killed in the Sarlacc's acid-filled belly, but he managed to set of a series of explosions which destroyed much of the beast and allowed him to escape. Note that Marvel Comics' Star Wars issue 81 showed Boba Fett being "rescued" by the Jawas from the Sarlacc pit, only to fall back in when the Jawas' sandcrawler fell into it.

He lay dying in the twin suns of Tatooine until he was discovered by Dengar and Manaroo, who recognized him by the tattered armor that still clung to his skinless body. Dengar also found Neelah,and took them both to his hideout in the desert. There, with the help of some of Jabba's medical droids, Dengar nursed Fett back to health. Once recovered, Boba Fett set out to clear up the situation with Kuat of Kuat and Neelah. They managed to put all the pieces together, with the help of Balancesheet and Kuat himself, before Kuat killed himself. After recovering the heavily-damaged Slave I from the Alliance, he limped to Nar Shaddaa and commandeered a second ship for his use. He designated this ship Slave II, and was again commissioned by the Hutts, this time to kill Solo once and for all. He almost succeeded at Nar Shaddaa, but was again thwarted.

When Han Solo and Princess Leia returned to Nar Shaddaa to take Vima-Da-Boda into custody, Boba Fett again nearly captured Solo, but Chewbacca overpowered him, ripping off his helmet and igniting his rocket-pack. Fett careened into the ceiling of the spaceport's lowest levels and was knocked unconscious. It was believed that he sustained near-fatal head injuries, but Fett returned to action shortly afterward, this time with the newly-repaired Slave I. His spent much of his career tracking down the two most elusive targets, Han Solo and Rivo Xarran. Fett caught Rivo on Ladarra, but let him live after discovering that Rivo was caring for a group of children. He later caught Solo on Jubilar, and the two decided that they had been adversaries too long to kill each other, and they went their separate ways.

Fett returned many times to Kamino, where Taun We had been secretly growing replacement body parts for the bounty hunter. She asked him to hunt down and destroy Fenn Shysa, as it had been Shysa who participated in the devastation of Kamino near the end of the Clone Wars. Many years passed after this final hunt, and Fett returned to Mandalore to assume control of the Mandalorian Protectors. He found himself elevated to the position of Mand'alor, the leader of the Mandalorian warriors and ostensibly the ruler of Mandalore itself.

When the Yuuzhan Vong began their invasion of the galaxy, Fett and his Mandalorians worked to protect the planet Mandalore before setting out to do as much damage as they could. From a base on Caluula Station, they worked to thwart any incursion of the Yuuzhan Vong into the Tion Hegemony. When Han Solo and his wife Leia arrived at the station with rescued prisoners from Selvaris, Fett removed his armor and introduced himself as Hurn. The Solos couldn't place the face, which was just fine with Fett. When the Yuuzhan Vong launched their final assault on Caluula Station, Fett and his soldiers worked tirelessly to ensure that the Solos escaped the station and returned to Calamari with the prisoners. As he cleared an escape lane for the Millennium Falcon, Fett called Solo to explain that he was always angry with the Jedi Knights, and that Solo was just valuable cargo. As Solo commed back that Fett was just a nuisance, they once again went their separate ways, and weren't reunited for ten years.

By that time, Fett had spent much of his time searching for Taun We and Ko Sai, hoping that they could provide details on how to halt the rapid degeneration of his own body. His liver was failing, and his tissues were riddled with tumors. Coruscant-trained Doctor Beluine, retained by Fett to monitor his health, gave the bounty hunter just a year or two to live. With this in mind, Fett set out to locate his daughter, Ailyn Vel. His search began when he encountered Mirta Gev, who was also looking for Vel. Unknown to Fett, Gev was Ailyn's daughter, and his own grand-daughter. Their paths crossed that of Han Solo when Fett took on the job of eliminating Thrackan Sal-Solo for Dur Gejjen, although ultimately it was believed that Mirta Gev took the shot that killed Sal-Solo.

In the wake of the assassination, Fett learned that Ailyn had been captured and killed by Jacen Solo, as part of the Galactic Alliance Guard's plans to elminate Corellian terrorists on Coruscant. Although he initially vowed to kill Jacen Solo, Fett realized that it was time he re-discovered his Mandalorian roots. At seventy-one years of age, Boba Fett and his new-found grand-daughter made a tentative peace, and set off locate the Kaminoans and return to Mandalore. Upon returning to Mandalore, Fett again assumed the role of Mandalore, but found that he didn't measure up to what he believed to be his father's ideal. He hadn't even taken a piece of Jango's armor as his own. His relationship with Mirta only made things worse, but he vowed to find a way to be a better Mandalorian. He even came to learn that Mirta was much Sintas, which made it easier for him to deepen his bond with her.

Together, they tracked the clone to Kuat, where they hoped to learn more about him from Fraig. Instead, the clone found them, revealing himself to be Jaing Skirata. Jaing took a sample of Fett's blood, and sent Kad'ika himself to deliver a serum that would help him recover. In the months following Kad'ika's delivery, Fett's health and condition improved rapidly, mirroring the re-establishment of Mandalore as a power in the galaxy. When Jacen Solo had Cal Omas arrested, Fett saw it as a bad turn for the rest of the galaxy. He had a set of crushgaunts made from Mandalorian Iron sent to Han Solo with a card that read "With deepest sympathy," hoping that Solo would use them to strangle his son and prevent further trouble for the galaxy. Fett's dislike of Solo only grew when he learned that his daughter, Ailyn Vel, had been killed during an interrogation session led by Solo.

Fett was therefore surprised when Jaina Solo arrived on Mandalore, asking for Fett's help in training her to defeat her brother. Fett agreed to the job, and began teaching Jaina how to fight like a Mandalorian. In the meantime, he was contacted by Admiral Daala, who had been absent from the galaxy for more than twenty years. She had come out of hiding to assist Gilad Pellaeon, who had agreed to provide Imperial forces to augment those of the Galactic Alliance, on a mission to capture the planet Fondor. Daala was to serve as Pellaeon's secret back-up force, and Daala wanted the Mandalorians to provide additional back-up, if necessary. Fett took the job, claiming that it was just business, even though it ran counter to the Mandalore First ideals he had recently embraced. However, it gave him a chance to see what Jaina Solo would do in a combat situation where she might encounter her own brother, since Jacen was leading the Galactic Alliance's forces at Fondor.

The battle saw the forces of the Galactic Alliance splintered as Admiral Cha Niathal tried to relieve Jacen Solo of his command, while Jacen tried to destroy Fondor with orbital bombardments. Pellaeon ordered the Imperials to take orders only from Niathal, which led Tahiri Veila to assassinate him. With this act, Daala called Fett's small task force into the battle, in order to secure the Destroyer Bloodfin before the Moff Council could assert its own control. The Mandalorians stormed the ship, an action that was made easier by the fact that Vitor Reige and the crew had carried out a successful mutiny, trapping the Moffs and Tahiri in the command center. Fett and his soldiers took no prisoners, opening fire on the Moffs and killing any that tried to escape. They were unable to capture Tahiri, who only escaped when Jacen Solo himself arrived to rescue. Fett managed to intercept them, but refused to kill Solo when he had the chance. He left this for Jaina to handle, but refused to let Solo escape without a warning. Fett shot Solo point-blank in the knee to avenge the death of Ailyn Vel, leaving Solo with the unspoken warning that Fett could find him and kill him at any time.

Upon returning to Mandalore, Fett got into an argument with Jaina Solo, in which he blamed Force users - not specifying Jedi or Sith - for the conflict in the galaxy. His argument pointed out that every major conflict experienced in the galaxy, with the possible exception of the Yuuzhan Vong War, had been started because of the differences between groups of Force users. When Jaina tried to argue that the Jedi Order had only ever acted in the best interests of the galaxy, Fett took her lightsaber and explained more about what happened when the weapon was used to attack another individual. Although she understood that a lightsaber cauterized a wound, Jaina never realized that the cauterization was both beneficial and horrible. Fett explained that Mace Windu had beheaded Jango Fett with a lightsaber, and the cauterized wound had trapped enough oxygenated blood in the severed head to allow Jango to exist a few moments after it was removed. When he recovered his father's helmet, Fett had had to deal with watching his father's disembodied head die, an event that gave Boba Fett nightmares for the rest of his life.

Fett then spent several days talking with Sintas Vel, hoping to repair the emotional scars of their past. They eventually came to underdstand each other, in time to celebrate the wedding of their granddaughter to Ghes Orade. In the weeks that followed, Fett agreed to establish a Mandalorian base on the Nickel One asteroid, as part of the mutual-aid treaty that had been signed with the Verpine. Their arrival all but coincided with an attack by the forces of the Imperial Remnant, which wanted to take control of the munitions factories on the asteroid. In the wake of the fighting, Fett and Jaina Solo finally parted ways. He provided her with a full-spec Bes'uliik-class assault fighter, and then set off to help the surviving Mandalorians do what they could to repel the Imperial invaders.

Fett was surprised a few days later when an assault force led by Jedi Master Luke Skywalker and Han Solo arrived at the asteroid. Fett believed that they were there to try and eliminate Jacen Solo, and agreed to help them as much as it further his own attempts to honor the mutual-aid treaty he had signed with the Verpine. However, the ensuing firefight turned bad when the Mandalorians struck at the Moffs who had gathered on Nickel One, drawing the attention of Darth Caedus before Jaina Solo could confront him. Caedus used his skills as a fighter and a Sith Lord to pick apart the Mandalorians, leaving none standing in his wake. Among the dead was believed to have been Mirta Gev, although Fett could gain no information that pointed to her death. In an attempt to find someone to blame, Fett confronted Jaina Solo about the events on the asteroid, but she refused to accept any blame before questioning Fett's orders to take out the Moffs. Her words hit close to home, and Fett was forced back down, but he did not absolve Jaina of the blame.

Before he could return to Mandalore and help his people defend themselves against a reprisal, Fett learned that the Imperial Remnant had deployed a nanokiller on the planet. The nanokiller had been created from Mirta Gev's blood, and was designed to kill any member of Fett's descendant bloodline. It was also designed to remain active indefinitely, forcing Fett and Mirta to find a new home while they tried to help Mandalore recover from an attack by the Galactic Alliance's Fifth Fleet.

Fett, Cassus
This man was perhaps the most wanted criminal in the galaxy during the years leading up to the Great Sith War. He was known to have killed an officer of the Old Republic during the Battle of Jaga's Cluster, before he fled into deep space. Although he was presumed dead, many beings claimed that he was biding his time before returning to the forefront. He reappeared at the height of the expansion of Mandalorian territory, when he led the attacks on Cathar that nearly wiped out the Cathar race. Cassus Fett called for his fellow Mandalorians to follow the example of the Neo-Crusaders, whom he believed were the embodiment of what it meant to be a Mandalorian. It was Cassus Fett who convinced the current Mandalore to clad all the Mandalorians in battle armor that was similar to what the Neo-Crusaders wore, to eliminate the individuality that gave rise to men like Rohlan Dyre. By covering the disparate Mandalorians under a common armor pattern, Fett believed that it would give the Mandalore a chance to take control of the growing population of Mandalorians.

The Mand'alor then placed Cassus Fett in charge of securing the Upper City of Taris after the Mandalorians assumed control of the planet, hoping that his leadership would pave the way for a full takeover, and ready the Mandalorian hordes for their assault on Coruscant. Cassus Fett was also placed in command of the recruits and conscripts that were being collected on the planet Jebble. This huge army was being assembled for an attack on Alderaan, which would prove to the Galactic Republic that the Mandalorians were capable of striking at one of the Core Worlds, and hopefully draw off the defenses that protected Coruscant. However, before the Jebble army could be trained and armed, it was taken over by the Rakghoul Plague that was started when Pulsipher used the Muur Talisman. Zayne Carrick warned Cassus Fett about the spreading plague on Jebble, and when he could find no reason to disbelieve Zayne's words, Cassus Fett bombed Jebble from orbit, killing the rakghouls hordes and preventing the spread of the plague, but leaving Jebble a frozen wasteland. (KOTOR, NECH, KOR5, KORH, KOR6, KOR7, KORV)

Fett, Jango
This man was a noted bounty hunter during the last decades of the Old Republic. As a child, Jango was orphaned on Concord Dawn when his family, farmers by trade, were murdered in a civil war among the factions of the Mandalorian Mercs. Vizsla captured Jango and forced his parents to tell what they knew of Jaster Mereel, but the Fetts refused. Jango fled as Vizsla and his cronies executed his family. Jango himself was saved by Jaster Mereel and later trained by the Mandalorians, a debt that he carried for the rest of his life.

Jango became one of the noted Mandalorian Shocktroopers, and it was believed that he was the only survivor of that military group in the wake of the Mandalorian Civil War. It was said that, during his tenure with the Mandalorians, he single-handedly destroyed the Death Watch. He patrolled the galaxy in the Firespray-class starship Slave I, a ship which Jango stole when he escaped from the Oovo IV prison facility and was later heavily-customized to his exactly standards. Jango lived his life by a code, made up from the simple ideals that came from his Mandalorian upbringing and a lifetime of bounty hunting.

Around the time of the Battle of Naboo, Jango was contacted by Darth Tyranus on one of the moons of Bogden, to serve as the model for a new clone army being developed for the Republic. Jango had been singled out from all the beings in the galaxy, and he was tested by Dooku by hunting down Komari Vosa and defeating the Bando Gora cult. Fett ultimately agreed to the job, which paid quite well, especially in light of the fact that Jango only had to provide genetic material and training for the clones. His only real payment, beside room and board on the planet Kamino, was a single, unadultered clone.

Jango took the child and raised it as his own son, whom he named Boba. In between taking jobs as a bounty hunter, Jango taught his son to be self-sufficient and wary of everything. He trained Boba on starships and weapons, encouraging the boy to read and learn about the galaxy around him. Jango Fett often worked along, but was known to have partnered with Zam Wesell during the years following the Battle of Naboo. Shortly before the onset of the Clone Wars, it was Jango Fett who was employed by the Trade Federation to assassinate Senator Padme' Amidala of Naboo. He chose to work with Zam Wesell on the job, knowing that the Clawdite's ability to change shape would come in handy on Coruscant. When the attempt failed, Jango had to kill Zam in order to maintain his secrecy.

He returned to the planet Kamino, until its location was discovered by Obi-Wan Kenobi. Jango, realizing that Obi-Wan was not the Jedi accomplice of Darth Tyranus, fled Kamino to the planet Geonosis. There, he became embroiled in the Battle of Geonosis, the first true skirmish of the Clone Wars. Despite the fact that his cloned army performed well, Jango himself was unable to match the intensity of the Jedi Knights. In combat with Mace Windu, Jango was killed when he was decapitated by Windu's lightsaber.

Stories of Jango's death reached far and wide, well beyond the battle arena of Geonosis. To lose one's head in a battle with a Jedi became known as "getting Jango'ed". Many clone troopers told and retold the story of his death, until it became widely accepted that it had taken twelve Jedi to bring him down.

Jango's son, Boba, survived Geonosis, and took up his father's place as a bounty hunter. He returned to Geonosis years later to exhume his father's body and return it to Mandalore for a proper burial. In the wake of the Second Battle of Fondor, Boba Fett revealed to Jaina Solo that the lightsaber blow that had killed Jango had actually cauterized the wound to Jango's neck, sealing in enough oxygenated blood to allow Jango's brain to remain conscious for a few more minutes. Boba Fett explained that seeing his father's disembodied head die in his hands had given him nightmares for the rest of his life.

Fett, Melvin
According to a popular comic that was dsitributed on the HoloNet during the height of the New Order, Melvin Fett was the bungling cousin of noted bounty hunter Boba Fett. The comic series told the story of Melvin's attempt to capture Jar Jar Binks on the planet Tatooine, and how the only thing he captured was a drinking cup that was shaped like a Gungan. (T20)

Fetz, Amatha
This well-known and well-liked rogue owned Tion Hauling, based on Lianna, during the height of the New Order. She was born to a poor family, and earned her wealth through hard work, keen business acuman, and a little bit of piracy. Among the working class of Lianna, she was considered something of a hero. (ML)

Fever Wasp
Native to the jungles of Haruun Kal, this vicious insect was a parasite that laid its eggs in any living being it could attack and bite. The larvae of the fever wasp feed on blood and flesh, although it was discovered that they also like to consume thyssel bark. Because of this trait, those Korunnai who chewed the bark as a stimulant and were bitten by fever wasps died very quickly. When the larvae of the fever wasp reached the brain of their host, they continue to grow until they hatched, feeding on the brain cells and eventually killing the host. When a mass of larvae reached maturity, they burst from the skull of their host as if emerging from a huge eggshell. If caught very soon after the initial bite, the larvae of the fever wasp could be killed with an injection of thanatizine. If not destroyed immediately, the only way to destroy the larvae was to kill the host and burn their body. The larvae of the fever wasp matured in about four days, making treatment virtually impossible if delayed. (SHPT)

Fevvenor
This huge tree was native to the rainforests of the planet Veron. These trees covered more than three-quarters of Veron's surface, but were not able to survive on the rocky mountains or coastal shores. (PG1, AE)

Fevvenor Toad
This small amphibian was native to the upper levels of the fevvenor trees which made up the rainforests of Veron. (PG1)

Fevye'starn
This city was located on the eastern continent of the planet Bothawui. (SPG)

Fewam
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 "beloved". (GCG)

Fewgive, Gebbo
This con artist was supposedly one of Talandro Starlyte's regular customers. (WSV)

Fex-M3
A chemical weapon, Fex-M3 was a potent nerve gas that caused death when inhaled by most humanoid races. Developed during the final decades of the Old Republic, Fex-M3 remained one of the most effective nerve gases in the galaxy for many decades. Riot police on Coruscant used to to break up mobs of Corellian demonstrators some ten years after the end of the war against the Yuuzhan Vong. (ISB, LF2)

Fex-M3d
A later variation on the original Fex-M3 nerve gas, Fex-M3d was designed to bind to neuro-receptors as it passed through the bloodstream after being inhaled. This binding effect prevents the nerves from sending information to the brain. In small doses, it can cause involuntary muscles to become lax, making the heartbeat irregular and breathing difficult. In larger doses, the body's autonomous nervous system shuts down completely, stopping the lungs from breathing. (WG)

Fey
This was one of the many family names used by the Bothan people. It translated loosely to "servant". (GCG, WOTC)

Feyd-cloth
A rough, pebbly cloth used to make robes. Emperor Palpatine wore a feyd-cloth robe while he was on the second Death Star over Endor. (SE)

Fey'ja, Maja
This woman was the peaceful queen of the Majan race, during the last decades of the Old Republic. She welcomed the podraces of the time to the city of Baroo, since the Majan people enjoyed watching them. (RAC)

Fey'jia, Torel
This Bothan was part of the Ojia clan migration that settled on the planet Kothlis. Formerly employed by MCS, Torel embezzled enough of MCS's funds to support himself, even after MCS went out of business. He then went into business for himself, buying and selling top-secret corporate information. He used the profits from this venture to establish one of the largest spynets on Kothlis, which helped provide a wealth of information to his good friend, Borsk Fey'lya. (SPG)

Fey'lya, Borsk
Fey'lya, recognizable by his cream-colored fur and violet eyes, was a native of the Bothan colony world Kothlis. He joined the Alliance shortly after the Battle of Yavin, bringing with him a large contingent of Bothans. He led the mission to steal the plans to the second Death Star, and was rewarded with a leadership position in the Alliance which grew into a seat on the New Republic's General Council. Note that X-Wing: Rogue Squadron does not verify Fey'lya's role in the mission to obtain the Death Star plans. As a councilor in the Alliance, he began playing the various representatives against each other, in an effort to gain more and more power. After the Battle of Endor, Fey'lya's manipulations came to a head when the New Republic - in an effort to gain some legitimacy - began to plan the retaking of Coruscant. Fey'lya set up the series of discussions and briefings on Noquivzor, where other members of the council would feel ill-at-ease, due to the planet's dry environment. This worked in his favor, forcing Ackbar and others to debate amongst themselves while Fey'lya entered his own opinions. Fey'lya probably would have continued to gain power this way, but his Bothan ideals got the best of him when Grand Admiral Thrawn stepped onto the scene. When he saw an opportunity to denounce Admiral Ackbar and gain control of the Republic's armed forces, he took it. He aligned himself with Grand Admiral Thrawn's plans to discredit Ackbar, and was the main proponent in Ackbar's treason hearings. When the plot against Ackbar was revealed, Fey'lya thought that his career with the Republic was finished. However, the Republic recognized that it needed strong leaders, and pardoned him. Rumors abound that, at this time, Fey'lya tried to bribe Talon Karrde with 70,000 credits to keep information about the planet Wayland a secret. These rumors, when combined with the information on the Bothan participation in the destruction of Caamas, fueled wild speculation about his clan's part in Caamas' death. However, he remained a loyal Republic supporter after that, although he never lost his uncanny ability to turn a situation to his own advantage. To this end, he began forcing Asyr Sei'lar to abandon her relationship with Gavin Darklighter, for he felt that it wasn't the way a proper Bothan - let alone a hero of stature almost equal to the Martyrs - should behave. Asyr ignored him, knowing that Bothan society would have to change to meet the demands of the new galaxy. Fey'lya told her that he himself would control that change, and told Asyr to fall into line with him. She refused, and after her "death" at Corvis Minor 5, she began working to change society without him. The fact that Asyr's body was never recovered hurt Fey'lya's plans to make her into the greatest of all Martyrs, and forced him to approach Booster Terrik with a request to locate a Bothan body to use in her place. Fey'lya had no qualms about Booster's people murdering a Bothan in order to fill the need. Booster flatly refused, and beat Fey'lya with his fists to ensure he got the message. Fey'lya was forced to return to Coruscant and rethink his plans. He later served as the chairman of the Justice Council during Leia Organa-Solo's tenure as Chief of State. After the agreement with Admiral Pellaeon to effectively eliminate Imperial opposition, Fey'lya was named Chief of State of the New Republic in a sweeping power-play. He led the New Republic Advisory Council twenty years after the Battle of Bilbringi, and was in this position at the onset of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. He had arranged for a great deal of support to be voted to Senatorial positions, and received strong backing when Leia Organa Solo pleaded with the High Council to act against the Yuuzhan Vong forces. Fey'lya and his supporters dismissed her pleas as a poorly-disguised way to regain political power, but he was proven wrong when the worlds of Dantooine, Bimmiel, and Garqi were overrun by the Yuuzhan Vong. After it was revealed that he had manipulated Navy orders to avoid confrontation with the Vong, Fey'lya was forced to concede leadership to the military in order to avoid a complete take-over of the galaxy by the Yuuzhan Vong. However, he managed to retain enough control to throw support to the Jedi, garnering a measure of support he had yet to attain. However, all his posturing and political maneuvering came to naught when the Yuuzhan Vong bypassed the Bilbringi Shipyards and attacked Coruscant itself. Rather than allow the planet to be taken while he fled in fear, Fey'lya allowed himself to be captured. He had hoped that the Yuuzhan Warmaster, Tsavong Lah, would come to Coruscant, but Fey'lya was allowed only to speak to Romm Zqar. During the Yuuzhan Vong' request for formal surrender, Fey'lya refused, setting off a collection of explosions in the Imperial Palace that took his life and those of the entire Yuuzhan Vong complement. Nevertheless, Coruscant fell to the alien invaders, despite Fey'lya's noble end. (HTTE, DFR, WG, SOL, IR, VP, DTO, SBS, SWDB)

Fey'lya, Desark
This male Bothan served as the First Secretary of the planet Kothlis, during the era of the Clone Wars. When Separatist forces tried to capture Kothlis and usurp the Bothan Spy Net outpost there, a Republic task force was quickly dispatched to defend the planet. Although the Bothans were a neutral party during the conflict, the Spy Net provided valuable intelligence to the Grand Army of the Republic. Thus, Secretary Fey'lya was glad to learn that Jedi Master Yoda was leading the task force that was sent to Kothlis. Although the Republic fleet was successful in driving off the Separatists, Secretary Fey'lya was insulted when Ahsoka Tano accused him of lying about the entire event. (CWWRT)

Fey'lya's Pride
This Lambda-class shuttle was part of the Bothan fleet which assisted the Alliance in evacuating their base on Kothlis, shortly before the Battle of Endor. (XWA)

This Draedan dictator was one of the few that supported Emperor Palpatine and the New Order on Sesid. (GG12)

Feyodor
This portly man was a Corellian, and he owned and operated Feyodor's Tavern in Omman's Capital City. He was generally regarded as an excellent chef, although no one knew if he had been formally trained. (SWJ12)

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

Feyrr
This name was common among members of the T'surr race. (WOTC, UANT)

Fey'starn
This was a small fishing village located on the planet Bothawui (Kothlis?). (COG)

Feytihennasraof
This was one of the many Elders of the Oswaft society. He controlled the ThonBoka with Senwannus'gourkahipaff during the early years of the Old Republic. He chose to use the shortened form of Fey when he was dealing with Lando Calrissian, during the early years of the New Order. Fey was only slightly smaller than Sen, with a wingspan of nearly a kilometer. During the defense of the ThonBoka, Fey was among a group of Oswaft who were caught by the first blast from the Wennis, which fired some of the deadly bio-engineered weapon that had been developed by Rokur Gepta. Fey and his comrades were killed in the blast. (LCS)

Ffib
An alien race native to the planet Lorahns, the Ffibs established a religious order which spanned many worlds during the Old Republic. Several years before the Battle of Naboo, the Ffib were nearly wiped out by the Twi'leki pirate Reess Kairn. The Daughters of the Ffib sought out Aurra Sing, hoping to employ her in an effort to eliminate Kairn and the two Shi'ido he employed to masquerade as him. (TJP, BHAS)

Ffib Tribunal
This was the governmental body which ruled the Ffib people, during the last decades of the Old Republic. (BHAS)

Fft
Small lizards used as meat sources for the Ssi-ruuk (TB)

fftssfft
This was the term used by the Dandelion Warriors to describe themselves. The name was actually little more than a sound that could be produced by expelling air through the pores in their bodies. (OWS)

FG 8T8 Twin Block2 Special
This was a model of Farwan&Glott podracer that was unique in its design to most other racers. The Twin Block2 Special was a single unit, with its cockpit positioned in between and slightly in fron of its engines, rather than being dragged behind. The cockpit was connected to the engines by a rigid Y-frame, requiring a specialized control cable set-up. The engines of the Twin Block2 Special measured 7.16 meters in length, and could propel the cockpit at speeds reaching 785 kilometers per hour. (IG1, SWDB)

FG36
This was the official designation of the nanovirus that was created by Doctor Ovolot Qail Uthan to attack only those individuals who shared the same genome as Jango Fett. Doctor Uthan developed the nanovirus for the Separatists, after being hired by Count Dooku, so that it could be used against the clone troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars. Fortunately for the Republic's sake, Doctor Uthan was captured on Qiilura before she could mass-produce the FG36 nanovirus. (RCTC)

FGA-583
This was a type of nerve gas manufactured for Locris Syndicates. (GG10)

Fgir
This shrubby plant was native to the Forest Moon of Endor, where it was sought out by the Ewoks, who used its roots for a number of uses. However, acquiring enough fgir root to create the paste was a dangerous proposition, as the roots were hollow and quite sensitive to pressure. When squeezed or compressed, the roots of the fgir ejected a number of poisonous, needle-like spines into the air. It was this characteristic that earned the fgir bush the nickname "shooter roots". However, the Ewoks learned that the root itself could be cut and dried to form a dart blower, while the moisture found in the roots could be distilled into an effective anesthetic. Despite its ability to heal Ewok injuries, fgir root proved ineffectual on Aqualish, Mon Calamari, Quarren, and Priapulin individuals. (GMR9)

Fg'wz
The Fg'wz family was generally regarded as one of the galaxy's most influential families. (OWS)

Fharn, Melodia
This woman, a native of the city of Tekar, on the planet Derilyn, was a nurse before the planet was subjugated by the Empire. Her husband was in the city of Paran when it was destroyed, and Melodia was widowed by the war. She was forced to raise her son alone, but he eventually grew up and got married. Unfortunately, both the son and his wife were also members of Derilyn's resistance movement, and both were killed by Imperial troops. Melodia found herself the guardian of her two grandchildren, but she no longer could ignore the threat of the Empire. She became Tekar's foremost rebel leader during the Imperial occupation of Derilyn. (PG3)

Fhilch, Grubbat
This rabbit-like Lepi was an accountant who worked for Jabba the Hutt during the last decades of the Old Republic. Grubbat suddenly fled Jabba's service, and it was discovered that Grubbat had been double-dipping the books he maintained on Jabba's income from podracing, and had embezzled a huge sum of credits from the Hutt. Jabba employed Boba Fett to retrieve the wayward Grubbat, and fed him to the Sarlacc which lived in the desert wastes of Tatooine. As he died, Grubbat swore he would get his revenge against the bounty hunter. There was rumor which indicated that some part of Grubbat's consciousness survived within the Sarlacc's genetic makeup. When the Sarlacc regurgitated an offspring, the rumor claimed that the new Sarlacc was partly made up from Grubbat's genes, and it was this new Sarlacc into which Boba Fett fell during the rescue of Han Solo. As the rumor states, Grubbat finally got his revenge. (T6, GMR4)

Fhnark & Company Exotic Foodstuffs
This supplier of unusual kinds of food - including still living delicacies like trufflites - was known by their motto, "We cater to the galaxy's degenerate appetites." (MA)

Fhramp
This creature was raised for its pelt. (TMEC)

Fi
This clone trooper was one of the men who served in the Sarlacc Battalions that were trapped on Dinlo, about a year after the Battle of Geonosis. Fi and many of his comrades were rescued by Jedi Knight Etain Tur-Mukan and the clone troopers of Improcco Company, who defied orders to return to Dinlo and rescue the Sarlacc teams. Etain was surprised to learn the clone's name, since he had the same name as one of the Omega Squad commandos Etain had worked with on Qiilura. (RCTZ)

Fi
This was the High Galactic word for "son", used to indicate a male child. (MC7, SWI66)

Fi
This clone commando - officially known as RC-8015 - was one of the many commandos who survived the Battle of Geonosis. The remainder of his squad was killed in the fighting on Geonosis, and Fi was force-fit into a new squad, known as Omega Squad. A sniper by training, Fi was known for his infallible sense of dry humor, and he never ceased to find something funny about his situation. Often, this lightheartedness eased the nerves of his fellow clones, but it soon became grating to many. During the mission to rescue Senator Meena Tills from Korunnai terrorists, Fi nearly shot his former teacher, Kal Skirata. Skirata had been protecting a hostage who had been forced to change clothes with one of the terrorists, and Fi was simply acting on instinct and reconnaissance. Although he managed to hold back, Fi felt that he had betrayed his former instructor by sighting him with his weapon. Skirata told Fi that he had simply been following the training that had been drilled into him, and that sentimentality would get him killed. His actions got Fi recognized by the Null-class ARC Trooper Ordo, who saw that Fi was an individual who put his squad in front of his own welfare. This was never more apparent than when he threw himself on a grenade to protect several officers of the Coruscant Security Force, using his Katarn armor to absorb the power of the blast.

During the occupation of the planet Gaftikar, it was Fi who first broached the subject of the timeliness of their creation to his fellow Omega Squad members. He questioned what would have happened if the war between the Republic and the Separatists had broken out five years earlier than the Battle of Geonosis, when the clone troopers were still too young to go into combat. Although some of the other Omegas believed that the Republic had simply gotten lucky, Fi still wondered at how perfectly everything had worked out. He didn't get much time to continue this line of thought, before Omega Squad was ordered to take out the Holo-Gaftikar Channel Ten communications facility. Fi was injured when the unit set off a booby trap, but managed to escape the brunt of the explosion because of his Mark III Katarn armor. However, Fi seemed different after the explosion, nearly vomiting into his helmet before boarding their extraction ship, the Leveler. During their flight from Gaftikar aboard the Leveler, Fi was treated for a head injury and intracranial swelling, then fell into a coma. He was placed in a low-temperature bacta tank to help his body heal, but word of his injuries caused no small amount of concern when Kal Skirata learned of it.

When Fi didn't come out of the coma, the medical droids declared him brain-dead, and refused to provide him with further treatment. He would have been euthanized if his squad mates hadn't stepped in to demand he be transferred to a real hospital on Coruscant. However, the staff at the Republic Central Medcenter refused to treat Fi because he was a clone, forcing Besany Wennen and Jaller Obrim to remove him from the hospital and find personal care for him. In the meantime, Wennen used her access to the Republic's computer systems to insert information that declared Fi legally dead, making him essentially a free man. However, back at Obrim's residence in Rampart Town, Fi remained unresponsive, despite the efforts of his comrades and friends to bring him out of the coma. Bardan Jusik used his connection to the Force to stabilize Fi's condition and affect some small amount of recovery, enough so that he could be transported to Kal Skirata's residence on Mandalore.

On Manadalore, Fi was eventually able to walk on his own, but his speech still came in simple words that sufficed to stand for longer sentences. However, his brain had made a strong recovery with Jusik's help, and Fi was able to more fully communicate by writing sentences on a datapad. He still forgot the words to describe certain objects, and sometimes had to resort to pointing at something to make others understand what he was trying to say. During his convalescence, Fi found that he was almost always in the company of Parja Bralor, who nursed him back to health and stood by his side during his recovery. With Parja's help and gentle prodding, Fi began to expand his abilities, learning to move about in town and integrating himself into the local community. One thing he refused to do, however, was to help Fenn Shysa by posing as one of Jango Fett's heirs and assuming the position of Mandalore. Parja backed him up on this, adding her own opinion whenever people doubted Fi's abilities. It was after Fi began to recover from his injuries that Fenn Shysa approached him with a plan to have Fi stand in as Jango Fett's true heir, and thereby assume the role of Mand'alor. Fi wanted nothing to do with the plan, and tried to remain outside any further discussions with Sull and Spar. However, when Sull tried to abuse Bardan Jusik, something inside Fi snapped. He became quite angry and threatened to kill Sull if he so much as touched Jusik, prompting a brief scuffle that ended without any violence. Fi, though, wondered where the sudden rage had come from.

When Jusik was recalled to Coruscant to help prepare for the final stages of Skirata's plans to pull out his comrades and return to Mandalore, Fi insisted that he go along as part of the team. Parja found that she had no good reason to keep him on Mandalore, and Jusik knew that Skirata would need all the help he could get, so they both agreed to allow Fi to travel to Coruscant. Before he left, however, Fi asked Parja to marry him, and together they recited the words of the traditional Mandalorian wedding contract. On Coruscant, Fi and Jusik were able to extract Doctor Ovolot Qail Uthan and Arla Fett before General Grievous launched his attack on the planet. In the chaos that followed, Etain Tur-Mukan was killed, and Darman and Niner were stranded on Coruscant. Fi and his comrades were able to rescue the others, and they quickly made their way back to Mandalore. Upon returning to Mandalore, Fi adopted the armor plating that had been taken from Ghex Hokan, adding to his continuing growth as a true Mandalorian. (RCHC, SWI81, RCTZ, RCTC, RC66)

Fi
This was a common name among the clone troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic, referring to the identification number of the clone. (RC66)

Fia
This young woman was the daughter of Spang, the technician who installed the weaponry aboard the Tanquilla Beach space station. Fia herself was an accomplished mechanic, having graduated at just nineteen from Corellia University's School of Starship Engineering with a degree in hypernatuics. She chose to do her internship aboard the Tanquilla Beach station, alongside her father, some four years after the Battle of Endor. (DARK)

Fia
This alien race, native to the planet Galantos, called the Koornacht Cluster "The Multitude." They were a small, placid race whose communication included wild hand and arm gestures. After the Yuuzhan Vong captured Coruscant, the Fia began negotiating with the alien invaders, hoping to survive the invasion. They provided information on the strengths of the Yevetha, in return for resources and the Yuuzhan Vong's assurance that the Yevetha would be destroyed. The Fia also allowed the communications network to the Republic to be shut down, mainly to avoid reprials from the Republic itself. Little did the Fia know that the Yuuzhan Vong had no plans to spare either the Yevetha or the Fia. Only the timely intervention of Leia Organa Solo and her husband, Han Solo, on a mission to restore communications with Galantos, helped the Fia avoid the fate of the Yevetha. (BTS, FH1)

Fian
This was the native language of the Fia race. (EGP)

This was another term for tactile writing. (LF5)

Fibertile
This material, formed from lightweight fibers, was used in the construction of ceiling tiles, during the early years of the New Republic. (T)

Fibra-rope
This was a type of strong, braided rope used by climbers and tight-rope walkers. It was also favored by mercenaries and infiltration squadrons. (SOC, RF3)

Fibrasteel
This incredibly strong cable was formed from natural fibers which were woven with strands of steel. Fibrasteel was used to create reins and control systems for riders of large beasts, such as dewbacks. (TG)

FIBUA Operation
This was a term used by the military leaders and instructors of the Grand Army of the Republic to indication any fighting in built-up areas, or inside buildings. It was essentially a fancy term for urban warfare. (RCHC)

Fibuli
This planet was one of the Trianii colony worlds usurped by the Corporate Sector. Intense fighting among the Trianii Rangers and the CSA resulted from the takeover, and it was during this battle that Keeheen was taken prisoner by the CSA and imprisoned at Stars' End. After three years of devastating battles, the Rangers and the CSA signed an armistice treaty following the Battle of Yavin. Unfortunately for those beings native to Fibuli, the planet had been devastated by the continual fighting, and was little more that a wasteland. (CSA, EGA, SWJ7)

Fibuna, B'inka
This female Twi'lek was enslaved by Ka'Pa the Hutt during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo, and forced to work as a dancer in his Nal Hutta estate. However, B'inka discovered the Freedom Convoy and managed to escape from Ka'Pa shortly after the Trade Federation's invasion of Naboo was broken. She fled to Coruscant, where she tried her best to stay out of the public eye. Unfortunately, she was identified by Jango Fett as being wanted by Ka'Pa. Fett captured her and turned her over to the authorities after collecting the bounty on her head. (BH)

Fic
This was the Ewok word for the number 2. (GPB)

Fickle Flyer
This was one of the many names given to the YT-1300 freighter designated YT 492727ZED, during the twleve years it was owned by Corell Industries, Limited. Corporate reports indicated that the Fickle Flyer was a ship that had "issues". (MF)

Fida, Theen
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)

Fiddanl
The first planet in the Yavin system, Fiddanl was a molten world of toxic chemicals and deadly atmosphere. It had eighteen natural landmasses, which shifted at speeds of 600 kilometers a day. The planet's name seemed to have originated in the Imperial Xenodetic Survey Department, and was given by a Nuiwit clerk to replace the designation 96NK3F2. The average day on Fiddanl lasted 18 standard hours, and its year encompassed 276 local days. From space, the planet appeared as a constantly-changing mosaic of color, resulting from the rich abundance of minerals in the crust and in the atmosphere. (GG2, PH)

Fiddanl
This was the name used by many Nuiwits for their pets. (GG2)

Fiddymon
This was a slang term used by many criminals to refer to goods or items to be acquired or sold. (DSTR)

Fidelis
This centuries-old Tac-Spec Footman droid once served the Malreaux family of Vjun, working for the Viscounts and their families over many generations. Fidelis was easily recognized by its cream-and-crimson plating, which were the livery colors of the Malreaux family. However, when the seventeenth Viscount was infected with the madness epidemic and went insane, Fidelis was given a new mission by the Viscount's wife, Whirry. He was to secretly follow Whie Malreaux to Coruscant, and ensure the child's safety while he was in training at the Jedi Temple. It was during this time that Fidelis met Solis, another droid of similar manufacture that had been working on Coruscant. For many years, they played endless games of courtier dejarik, with Fidelis always keeping a watchful eye on the Jedi Temple. The games were often won by Fidelis, because it had been continually upgraded for many generations. When Whie was added to Master Yoda's mission to Vjun, both Fidelis and Solis managed to book passage aboard the Reasonable Doubt, so that Fidelis could continue to watch over his young charge. Solis agreed to distract Tallisibeth Enwandung-Esterhazy - otherwise known as Scout - so that Fidelis could talk to Whie in private. After the band was attacked on Phindar by Asajj Ventress, Fidelis was dismayed to learned that it had been his old friend, Solis, who provided information to Ventress on their location. His obvious distress made Scout believe that Fidelis had not been involved in the attack. As the remainder of the group headed for Vjun, Fidelis brought them up to date on the events which had occurred on Vjun over the last ten years. Once on Vjun, however, Fidelis was forced to accept new orders from Whirry Malreaux, who was still the head of the Malreaux household. Whirry ordered Fidelis to arrange for Whie to meet with Asajj Ventress, as a way to hold the Padawan hostage while Dooku met with Yoda. Ventress used the situation to her advantage, and gave Fidelis a choice: shoot itself with a neural-net eraser or watch Whie die. Fidelis, ever loyal to the Malreaux family, chose to shoot itself, wiping out its computer systems in a form of suicide. (YDR)

Fidelity
This was one of the Thranta-class warships slaved to the Another Chance to protect it from being taken by hostile forces. Like its companions, the Courage and Valiant, it would accompany the Another Chance as it jumped through hyperspace to avoid detection. One of the Thranta-class ships would enter realspace before the Another Chance to engage any resistance, the second would accompany it for protection, and the third would help draw off pursuit. (BW)

Fidge
A Biituian youth who befriended R2-D2 and C-3PO when they encountered the Great Heep on Biitu. Fidge was ten years old at the time, and agreed to help the droids rescue their owner, Mungo Baobab, from the Imperials who were on Biitu to monitor the Great Heep. Their plan succeeded, and they freed Mungo. Then, they worked to destroy the Great Heep and free Biitu from Imperial control. (TGH)

FIDO
This acronym was used to describe the Foreign Intruder Defense Organism. (COTF, EGD)

Fie
This was an ancient word used to curse another being to the death they deserved. (MC9)

Field Achievement Award
This medal was given to all members of the Alliance who survive their first mission into Imperial-controlled territory. (TFE)

Field Cauterizer
This medical device, produced by Nilar Med/Tech Corporation, was a self-contained laser used to disinfect and cauterize wounds which occurred in remote locations where medical facilities were not present. (AEG)

Field Disruptor
This device allowed a being to move through an energy fence or screen by temporarily disrupting the energy field as the wearer passed through. These devices could also be used as weapons, delivering a burst of energy outward from the generator. (EGW)

Field Fresher
This was a term used to describe any makeshift refresher unit that could be quickly installed or removed by explorers or military personnel. (CWNOP)

Field Reader
This small device was used by doctors and surgeons to eliminate the flow of bodily fluids, such as blood, from the body. These pressor devices monitored the movement of fluids and applied just enough pressure to staunch the flow, without causing damage to the vein or duct. (DSTR)

Field Secured Container Vessel
Known as an FSCV, this huge ship was equipped with heavy ion drives at each end of its main hull. Produced by Loronar for the Empire, an FSCV consisted of several paired Prexton doublefield generators, which could create 800-meter-wide spheres of energy that were capable of protecting 250 million cubic meters of storage. The entire ship was then surrounded by a hyperspace field that allowed it to move at lightspeed to its destination. Because of the incredible amounts of power demanded by the Prexton doublefield generators, the ion drives of the FSCV were vastly underpowered, requiring some thirty-five hours to propel the FSCV to its full sublight speed. Stopping required a similar amount of time, as well as a distance of 600,000,000 kilometers, requiring special flight paths when the FSCV arrived at a storage facility or orbital drydock. Note that the Black Ice adventure module claims these ships were designed and manufactured by Rendili StarDrive. (ISB, BI)

Field Sports
This small corporation manufactured recreational weapons used in targetting sports, including air guns used to fire capsules of paint to indicate hits. (ROE)

Fieldhopper
This insect, found on the planet Kubindi, was a staple in Kubaz cooking. (SWJ10)

Fierce
Despite her name, this domestic bursa was anything but fierce. Owned by Murble, Fierce was a scrawny beast who could perform a few simple tricks, such as standing on one leg. These tricks helped Murble earn his meager living, and thereby keep Fierce fed. The only time Fierce did get mean was if Murble was threatened, and Fierce could turn vicious enough to scare away potential attackers. (CCW)

Fierfek
The Huttese word for hex or curse, fierfek became a common swear word during the height of the Clone Wars. (TJP, RCHC)

Fiery Beetul
This was one of the smaller species of beetuls that was native to the planet Kubindi. The fist-sized fiery beetul was named for its flame-red, ruby-like shell. (MIS6)

Fiery Fornax Rings
This side dish, made by dredging root vegetable rings in a batter and then deep-frying them, was created by Dexter Jettster, and was one of the signature lunch sides that were found on the menu at Dex's Diner, during the final years of the Old Republic (OWS)

Fiery Ones
This was the name given by the Charr Ontee to the unusual, intelligent species which developed in the wake of the Rift Disaster. Resembling tiny balls of light, the Fiery Ones were not created by the ancient Kathol race, as the Charr Ontee history had no record of them or their discovery until DarkStryder banished them. The Fiery Ones were considered part of the original Kathol species by the Charr Ontee, although the Yapi regarded them as spirits. They could use the Ta-Ree energy which permeated the planet Kathol, and could give off an energy shock if provoked. In general, though, the Fiery Ones were curious beings who tried to communicate with any new species they encountered. (E)

Fieso, Niai
This Xexto grew up in the city of Veterned, on his homeworld of Troiken, during the decades leading up to the Battle of Naboo. His family was quite poor, and Niai was forced to take work wherever he could find it, in order to help them survive. One of these jobs turned out to be the selling of knock-off merchandise that was being fenced by Freon Drevan, who took Niai under his wing and taught him the game of the conman. Together they built a small criminal empire on Troiken, and even branched out into smuggling.

For his own part, though, Niai wanted to do more, and strove to surpass his benefactor. Thus, he began embezzling some of their profits for himself, all the while leaving hints and evidence that implicated Freon in a number of crimes. Thus, when Freon was apprehended and ordered to pay for their crimes, Niai left Troiken and set up an advertising scam in the Corporate Sector. He was quite successful for a while, until he was discovered by the Corporate Sector Authority's Attorney General and forced to flee before a group of Espos could apprehend him.

Niai ended up on Tatooine, where he hoped to lay low and find a way to recover his onfiscated wealth. He took a job as a food vendor, selling all manner of things at the Mos Espa Grand Arena. During the famous race in which a nine-year-old Anakin Skywalker defeated Sebulba, Niai Fieso found himself face-to-face with his former benefactor, Freon Drevan. Freon was also hiding on Tatooine, but his anger overcame his need to remain hidden, and he leapt at Niai and began to pummel him with his fists. Their brief scuffle was broken up by local authorities, and both were sent to jail. However, Niai was recognized for his crimes in the Corporate Sector, and was turned over to a group of Espos for incarceration. (SWDNB)

Fifth Fleet
Also known as the Fifth Battle Group, this was the New Republic's latest defensive fleet, created about twelve years after the Battle of Endor. The Fifth Fleet was the first to be completely comprised of the Navy's new classes of starship, such as the Sacheen- and Hajen-class frigates. It was initially placed under the command of Etahn A'baht, and was deployed to the Koornacht Cluster during the Yevethan Great Purge. It initially contained 106 starships, but it took a number of losses in the blockade of Doornik-319.

The Fifth Fleet was part of the Republic's defenses during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, and was the first fleet dispatched to the Utegetu Nebula to blockade the hives of the Colony from spreading beyond its borders. During the blockade, the Fifth Fleet was commanded by Admiral Nek Bwua'tu, from his position aboard the flagship Star Destroyer Admiral Ackbar.

Seven years later, the Fifth Fleet was performing routine patrols in the Outer Rim Territories when it was recalled by Supreme Commander Cha Niathal. Under the command of Admiral Atoko, the fleet was then sent to the Corellian System, where it was ordered to blockade the system, after Thrackan Sal-Solo threatened to go to war with the Galactic Alliance to achieve Corellian independence. After Sal-Solo's assassination and the cessation of peace talks with the Corellians, the Fifth Fleet was ordered to other battlezones. It was part of Admiral Nek Bwua'tu's second wave of attacks during the Battle of Kuat, but was pulled from the fighting by Jacen Solo after the Jedi Order defected from the Alliance.

The Fifth Fleet accompanied the Anakin Solo to Kashyyyk, where Solo demanded that the Wookiees turn over his parents and any Jedi who were on the planet. When they refused, Solo ordered his ships to open fire on the planet, burning forests and jungles in an effort to force the Wookiees to comply. This action, which Solo meant to serve as an example of what would happen to planets that defied the Galactic Alliance, prompted a swift response from the Wookiees. It also attracted the attention of naval forces from The Confederation, which had sent scout ships to trail the Anakin Solo.

In short order, the Fifth Fleet had been forced to form a protective sphere around the Anakin Solo, in order to defend it from the Bothan, Commenorian, Corellian, and Huttese warships that had suddenly come to the aid of Kashyyyk. Although support from Kuat never showed up, the arrival of the Hapan Home Fleet gave some crews a chance to hope for an escape. However, Queen Mother Tenel Ka was not there to support Jacen. She demanded his surrender, and when Jacen refused and tried to blast his way free, the massive enemy forces opened fire. The Fifth Fleet took heavy losses while defending the Anakin Solo, which took the brunt of the attack from the Hapans.

The Fifth Fleet and its charge might have been lost, had it not been for the secretive arrival of Alema Rar in the Kashyyyk System. She used the Dark Side of the Force to influence the Bothan forces, impelling Admiral Babo to break formation and rush at the Fifth Fleet. This gave Solo and Atoko enough time to rally the surviving ships, which then shoved their way past the blockade and escaped into space. The Fifth Fleet regrouped and licked its wounds during the weeks that followed, until the Mandalorians launched an counterattack the Nickel One asteroid, where the Imperial Remnant had staged its own takeover actions. The appearance of the Mandalorians, and the fact that they killed several Imperial Moffs before escaping, gave Jacen Solo - who had taken the title of Darth Caedus - reason to send the Fifth Fleet to Mandalore to eliminate any further Mandalorian interference. (BTS, SOL, DN2, LF2, LF6, LF9)

Fifth Ruling Family
This was the name given to one of the ruling families of the Chiss society. In general, the ordinal numbering of the ruling families denoted seniority, but it could also represent relative strengths among families. During the years leading up to the Clone Wars, the Chaf family was considered the Fifth Ruling Family. By the time of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, the Chaf were one of just four ruling families, after several families were excised when their numbers were severely reduced during the war, or after they became Joiners.

Figg, Ballifore
This Bith musician was known as "Balli the Horn" during his tenure as the leader horn player with Hyperspaze and the Jump Lanes. Ballifore was one of the band's top songwriters as well, pairing with Jardra to create some of the band's most popular - and most controversial - pieces. Much of Ballifore's music was inspired by the Alliance, for the band spent much of its early career touring in the Outer Rim. Ballifore met a number of Alliance agents and other rebels, and was touched by their raw emotion and drive. (HR)

Figg, Bens
This Imperial stormtrooper was part of the detachment stationed on Golrath, during the months following the Battle of Hoth. Lieutenant Giel was placed in command of the Golrath garrison, where the Imperials hoped to find information about the location of the Alliance. Figg was a noted student who graduated from the Imperial Academy with high honors. He excelled in sports, and was handsome enough to always get the girl. It was generally believed that Figg would eventually become an officer in the Empire's command structure. However, Figg was wholly unprepared when Leia Organa infiltrated the Imperial facility on Golrath. She knocked Figg unconscious with a single blow. (MC65)

Figg, Ecclessis
This human was a well-known Corellian, famous for his deep-space explorations and wild inventions. As a young man, Ecclessis served on a number of starships, taking on any job, from steward to mechanic. On one of his expeditions, he discovered the planet Bespin's concentration of tibanna gas. Other gases were also discovered, and he began making plans to mine it. His initial plans called for a large amount of credit, but he lacked the necessary funds to begin. While working as a steward on an Alderaanian yacht, he managed to save the life of a young woman named Yarith. He successfully wooed and married Yarith, and convinced her family to invest in his proposed plans. Over the duration of their marriage, Figg's investments returned a ten-fold profit on her money, as the Outer Javin Company grew and expanded at a tremendous rate. His first Bespin mining colony, the Floating Home, was the start of a number of floating settlements to be erected in the clouds of Bespin, and spurred Figg to create Cloud City. His wife was the primary source for many of the architectural styles, drawing from the styles used on her homeworld of Alderaan. Ecclessis Figg was considered a pioneer during his life, with an amazing record of forging hyperspace routes through the Greater Javin where it was believed no pathways existed. After gaining alliances with the Lutrillians and the Nothoiin, Figg began working to expand the knowledge of Mugaari Space, exploring all the way to the Mid Rim and creating the region that would become the Javin Sector. His work in developing routes from Lutrillia to Darlyn Boda, as well as linking the Corellian Trade Spine at Isde Naha to the Nothoiin Corridor, opened up a wealth of trade opportunities for the Outer Javin Company. The Old Republic even briefly considered using his name to denote a new sector in the Greater Javin, but historical precedent required them to name the area as the Anoat Sector. (GG2, TLC, DA, ISU, WOA33)

Figg, Yarith
This woman, a native of the planet Alderaan, was the wife of Ecclessis Figg. She married him shortly after Figg - who was working as a stewart aboard her family's luxury liner - saved yarith during a trip through the Anoat System. Yarith provided access to her entire family fortune to help Ecclessis Figg start his own business, then known as the Outer Javin Company. The investment, coupled with Figg's ability to navigate through hyperspace, allowed the company to grow rapidly, and brought great wealth to their family and descendents. (WOA33)

Figg & Associates
The conglomerate of businesses formed by Ecclessis Figg on Bespin, Figg & Associates was considered a separate business entity from Figg's primary operatio, the Outer Javin Company. (ISU, WOA33)

Figg Excavations
This was one of the many small corporations that were subsidiaries of the Outer Javin Company. Like its parent, Figg Excavations was headquartered on Gerrenthum. However, its primary staging point for exploration and mining operations was at Ione. As a member of the Mining Guild, FiggEx was supposed to provide input on helping all mining operations gain expertise and profitability by sharing information. However, the input from FiggEx was almost always minimal at best, and many within the Guild believed that FiggEx was only working for its own betterment. Nothing pointed this out more than the allegations that FiggEx was employing pirates to ambush its own convoys, as a way to demand local protect from Anoat Sector forces, thereby allowing them to split with the Mining Guild. When these allegations were proven to be true, FiggEx suffered more than the loss of profits it reported from the false piracy. It was severely fined by the Mining Guild and lost a great deal of respect for itself and for the Outer Javin Company. The Outer Javin Company was later discovered to have been unaware of FiggEx's machinations, further compounding the corporation's trouble. (WOA33, WOA34)

Figgis, Arner
A respected Issoria scholar, Arner taught anthropology and archaeology at the University of Be'Nal despite never truly experiencing either activity. He was also one of the few aliens ever to teach at the Imperial Academy of Science and Methodology. Figgis wrote a basic guide on the Old Corellian language, known as Old Corellian: A Guide for the Curious Scholar. (SWJ7, SWJ12)

Figgis, Arner
This man, a professor of anthropology, proposed that the Bharhulai tribe of Socorro was a perfect example of his survival-regressive-isolationist theory. The theory proposed that groups of humans, isolated from other members of their kind during the colonization of a planet, would revert to primitive stages of human development in order to ensure the survival of the group. (BSS)

Figh, Eobbim

Fighting Claw
This was the term used by the New Republic to describe the implanted claws used by Yuuzhan Vong warriors in hand-to-hand combat. Essentially spurs of bone which were attached to specific muscles in the hands, elbow, or knees, fighting claws could be extended in a struggle with a twitch of the connected muscle, allowing the Yuuzhan Vong warrior to making vicious slashes at their opponent. The extension of the claws was a painful act, but it only served to remind the warrior of his continual need to endure pain in order to become more like his gods. (NJOSB)

Fighting Fourth
This was a nickname used by the naval personnel of the Galactic Alliance to describe the Fourth Fleet, which was known for its ability to stand up to any fight and come out victorious. The Fourth Fleet was also known as the Fearless Fourth, for many of the same reasons. (LF9)

Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes
The Bith band that was playing in the Mos Eisley cantina when Ben Kenobi and Luke Skywalker booked passage on the Millennium Falcon, they were - at one time - Jabba the Hutt's full-time band. They were members, in good standing, of the Intergalactic Federation of Musicians, and had been entertaining audiences for more than twenty years. During the height of the Clone Wars, the band was part of Jasod Revoc's Galactic Revue. (TME, SW, MJH)

Figrin D'an II and the Modal Nodes
This was the name used by the former band members of Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes to describe themselves during the early years of the New Republic, after they had completely reworked their stage show and incorporated several unique aspects. Chief among the changes was the band's venue, when they agreed to perform at the Motel Nebulus, shortly after construction was completed. The band figured out how to play their entire set underwater, in the immense aquarium that was set into the hotel's dance floor. (GPB)

FIII Footman
This series of personal service droids was produced by the Tac-Spec Corporation nearly a millennia before the Clone Wars, but was widely considered one of the most loyal and deadly types of droids ever produced. The Tac-Spec Footman was marketed as "the gentleman's personal gentlething," and its primary programming centered on loyalty to its owner. This programmed was supported by the ability to assassinate almost any being who posed a threat to its master, an ability that was contrary to the prime directive of most droids. To this end, the Footman was equipped with a small rail gun built into one arm, and the droid's chassis was covered with a blast-proof material. 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. It was lated discovered that the Tac-Spec Corporation was little more than a front for the GenoHaradan guild, who had contracted with the Sorcerers of Tund to produce the original Footman units for pre-arranged buyers within the guild. Subsequent manufacturing runs were sold to the general public, although only an elite few could afford the droid's high cost. (YDR, NEGD)

Fijil
This street urchin, a native of the planet Centares, worked as a courier for Osaji Uhares during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (WOA32)

Fijisi
The wood of this tree was used to create luxurious panelling and accent work. It had a unique, delicate scent, even when finished and polished. It was native to the planet Cardooine, but also existed on the planet Commenor. (TLC, IR)

Fik, Nor
This was one of the Colicoid leaders who traveled to meet with Krayn on Rorak 5, during the period in which Anf Dec was negotiating with Krayn for the spice processing rights to the Kessel Run. It was Nor Fik who greeted the slave trader Bakleeda - actually Obi-Wan Kenobi in disguise - some four years after the Battle of Naboo. Bakleeda had been employed by the Colicoids as an independent assessor of Krayn's organization. Shortly after their initial meeting, Nor Fik was confronted by Obi-Wan and Siri Tachi, both of whom revealed they had been planning to "overthrow" Krayn. Under her disguise as Zora, Siri reasoned with Nor Fik about the Colicoids' plans to eventually squeeze Krayn out. Nor Fik was unable to commit the full resources of the Colicoids to take up the Nar Shaddaa operations, but agreed to allow the slave revolt to take its course and ruin Krayn's operations. Eventually, Nor Fik was allowed to take control of Nar Shaddaa, and agreed to actually pay the workers to continue processing the spice. (JQ)

F'ika
This was an affectionate nickname used by Parja Bralor to describe the clone commando known as Fi. (RC66)

Fil
This clone commander was assigned to Jedi General Nahdar Vebb, during the early stages of the Clone Wars. Commander Fil helped lead the assault on General Grievous' fortress on the third moon of the planet Vassek. Commander Fil was killed when Grievous' pet roggwart, Gor, grabbed Fil with its tailed and began flailing him against the walls of the dungeon in which it lived. Vebb managed to cut off Gor's tail and freed Fil, but he was too badly injured and soon died. (CWTV10)

Filar-Nitzan
This was a race of gaseous beings which could form its body into a number of configurations. Native to the planet known only as DNX-N1, the Filar-Nitzan were called "cloud demons" or "gas devils" by the few beings who knew of them. Their coloration was varied, ranging from blue to green and yellow, and their eyes were always the opposite color from their bodies. Thus, a green-bodied Filar-Nitzan had red eyes. Xenobiologists of the New Republic believed that there were less than 400 individual Filar-Nitzan alive in the galaxy. (SWJ12, AE)

Filba
This Hutt was one of the few members of his species to actively support the Old Republic during the Clone Wars. He served on Jabiim, where it was rumored that he was dabbling on the black market and trying to curry favor with Alto Stratus. It was also rumored that Filba had connections to Black Sun, and had aspirations to become a vigo himself. Later, Filba was one of the many non-combat personnel dispatched to the planet Drongar, where he served as the supply sergeant and requisitions officer for the Rimsoo Seven military hospital. He was also in charge of the Republic's bota production on the planet, a position which allowed Filba to play burn ends of the candle. He ostensibly maintained tight control over the bota that was shipped out, so as not to lose track of a shipment. However, he was skimming a small amount from each outgoing shipment for his own use, which he later sold on the black market with the help of his commanding officer, Admiral Tarnese Bleyd. It was Bleyd who had placed Filba in complete control of the bota production, which seemed to be a huge responsibility on top of his regular military duties. Not many knew of their side operations, but when they tried to make a higher profit for themselves, it attracted the attention of their primary buyer, the Black Sun organization. Filba had tried to drive the price up by purposely destroying an outgoing shuttle, hoping to claim that additional security would cost them. However, Black Sun was in no mood to play games, and the assassin Kaird was dispatched to Drongar to remedy the situation. Additionally, the spy known as Lens was inside the unit, operating on orders from both BlackSun and the Separatists. Lens managed to slip a poison into Filba's food and water, disguised as a member of The Silent. During a meeting with Bleyd, Filba suddenly seized up, as his system stopped completely. Filba's death was eventually discovered to have been murder, although his killer was never revealed to the rest of Rimsoo Seven. (MBS)

Filcher
This pirate cargo ferry was disabled by Imperial forces, during the early stages of the Galactic Civil War, as it tried to ferry supplies to a group of Alliance transports. The crew was captured, and the ship's cargo holds were emptied out by Imperial heavy lifters. (TIE, TIEP)

Filian
This X'Ting was a Regent on the council formed by the Five Families, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Because of his position, he was forced to keep a great of his species' history a secret from his mate, G'Mai Duris. This proved to be unfortunate when Filian was challenged to a duel by Caiza Quill, in a combat known as "going to the sand". Quill killed Filian, forcing Duris to assume his position on the council. Filian died before the couple could engage in the X'Ting fertilization dance, leaving Duris childless and without heirs. (HIV, TCD)

Filocard
This specialized datacard was used by the various banking and financial institutions on Aargau to identify an individual and keep track of their account balances. In addition to possessing the filocard, an individual also had to submit to an identity check, often a retinal scan or other DNA analysis, to ensure that they were entitled to the money in a given account. (BF3)

Filordi
This was a race of unusual, six-limbed aliens which was native to the planet Filordis. The front pair of limbs was used as strong arms, and the rear pair of limbs was heavily-muscled and used for walking. The middle pair of limbs was very thin, and was used for stabilizing their thick bodies during locomotion. In the galaxy at large, the average Filordi was known to have two desires: to make their homeworld less hostile, and to get away from it as fast as they could. The Filordi were one of three races, along with the Neimoidians and the Caarites, which controlled the Trade Federation during the decades leading up to the Battle of Naboo. However, both the Filordi and the Caarites were unprepared for the Neimoidians' plans to blockade the Naboo System, and decided to break off their relationship with the Trade Federation. Together, the two races form the Metatheran Cartel, and begin making plans to wrest control of Cularin from the Federation if the blockade of Naboo should fail. When the Federation was defeated at Naboo and was faced with the loss of their trade charter, the Metatheran Cartell assumed control of Cularin. (WOTC, LFC, UANT)

Filswik
This was a swear word used by Alliance pilots. (T12)

Filve
This planet was the site of one of Thrawn's last attacks before he attacked Coruscant. The attack was led by the Star Destroyer Judicator. Much of the planet was covered by a hot desert, and the native Filvians have built enclosed cities to protect themselves from the planet's scorching environment. (TLC, TTSB)

Filvian
The race native to Filve, this Filvians were large, intelligent quadripeds which evolved in the various harsh landscapes of Filve. Their bumpy shape was a result of a variety of glands and sacs located on their bodies, which helped a Filvian hold water and fat for consumption in emergency situations. This allowed them to go for up to thirty days without food or water. Their three-fingered hands were quite dextrous, and many Filvians were known to be excellent computer operators. (TLC, TTSB)

Filvian
This Brolfi was the leader of an insurgent group that opposed the Corporate Alliance's plans to take control of the mining operations on Barlok, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. He was known among the rebels by the codename Patriot, and his position at the head of the insurgency eventually brought him into contact with Kinman Doriana. Doriana used the alias Defender, and convinced Filvian and his people to build a slinker missile to assassinate both Passel Argente and Guildmaster Gilfrome. Their plan was ultimately thwarted by Jedi Master Jorus C'baoth. (OF)

Fil'vye, Onoron
This Bothan shipping magnate established a base of operations on Streysel Island, on the planet Vaynai, during the height of the New Order. While most of his transport business catered to corporate customers who needed to get sensitive cargoes quickly to another site, these operations were merely a cover fof Fil'vye's more lucrative endeavors. In addition to funding a wide-ranging smuggling outfit, Fil'vye had literally cornered the market on the production of slick, a fermented seaweed oil which had certain medicinal properties. However, Fil'vye's exporting of slick also reached beings who used it as a recreational drug. Note that this character was also referred to as Onoron Fi'vya, Oneron Fil'vye, or Onoron Fil'vya. (GMR8)

Fil'vye Transport
This was the shipping and transport company owned by Onoron Fil'vye, which was based on Streysel Island on Vaynai during the height of the New Order. Outwardly Fil'vye Transport was known for its ability to get sensitive cargoes required by corporations and governments moved between locations with speed and security. However, these operations served as cover for Fil'vye's more lucrative smuggling contracts. (GMR8)

It was believed that the Final Prophet would be the Charon who would lead them all into the Void, for the Prophet would show them how to eliminate all life in the galaxy. The Void would then reveal to the Prohpet all the secrets of the galaxy, and allow the Charon to return to the Void. (OS)

Final Redoubt
This was the New Republic's codename for the establishment of a new base of operations on the moon Ebaq 9, in an effort to draw the Yuuzhan Vong into a trap. Using the abandoned bronzium mines, the New Republic established a minimal base on Ebaq 9, outwardly claiming that planets like Kashyyyk and Calamari were easy targets for the Yuuzhan Vong, and a more defensible location was required. The idea, realized during the Battle of Ebaq, was to draw the Yuuzhan Vong into a dead-end hyperspace route in the Deep Core, with the base on Ebaq 9 as the bait. (DW)

Final Trump
This was the name of a dreamed-up sabacc hand, created by Lando Calrissian in a dream he experienced during the early years of the New Order. Lando envisioned this hand as an automatic 23 for its holder, although his dream depicted a gray-skinned opponent getting the Final Trump. (LCS)

Financial District
This sector of Coruscant's Galactic City contained most of the planet's major banks and financial institutions. (OWS)

Financial Reform Act
This resolution was placed before the Galactic Senate some eight years after the Battle of Naboo. The FRA was created to address the rampant greed and corruption that was overtaking the Senate, but it was met with stern opposition. Historically, the FRA was believed to have been the primary impetus for many systems to separate from the Old Republic and join the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The FRA never came to a vote, after it was revealed that Venco Autem had arranged for the murder of Jheramahd Greyshade, and planned to assassinate his successor, Simon Greyshade. The Senate fell into an uproar, and the FRA was tabled. With no recourse against the corruption, systems began to secede from the Republic. (RHD)

Finder
This was a term used during the years that followed the Yuuzhan Vong War to describe any bounty hunter who was hired to bring back their targets alive, so that they could be questioned or imprisoned for their actions.

He started his own mercenary band, and recruited former members of the Imperial Army to join him. Many of his mercenaries were imprisoned for being mentally unstable, but Findo had no problems with that. He later began attacking New Republic military installations, but managed to elude capture, prompting the New Republic to issue a warrant for his arrest. It was believed he maintained a base in the Duro Sector.. (WBC, OWS)

Findos, Sentepeth
This Neomoidian was the acting Viceroy of the Trade Federation, in the wake of the death of Nute Gunray and Rune Hacko at Mustafar, in the wake of the Clone Wars. Not all Neimoidians chose to recognized his appointment to Viceroy, and many believed that he was nothing more than a flunky chosen by the Empire. Findos had previously been a Lieutenant within the Trade Federation, and had led the defense of Cato Neimoidia during the Clone Wars. The fact that Cato Neimoidia fell to the Old Republic was statement enough about Findos' leadership abilities, especially in the minds of most Neimoidians. It was said that his primary defense strategy revolved around the deployment of enough battle droids that the advancing army couldn't cross the wreckage created by their destruction. With the establishment of the New Order, Findos was left with no choice but to sign a treaty that allowed the Trade Federation to be nationalized by the Galactic Empire. After signing the treaty and imploring Emperor Palpatine to remember the contributions of the Trade Federation to the Old Republic, Findos was escorted away by stormtroopers. (SWI84, NEGD)

This Yuuzhan Vong commander was the first to appear before Warmaster Nas Choka and announce that Zonama Sekot had traveled across the galaxy to appear near Coruscant, some five years after the alien invasion of the galaxy began. The Yuuzhan Vong had spent years transforming Coruscant into a likeness of their long-lost homeworld of Yuuzhan'tar, only to have Zonama Sekot set of a chain reaction of seismic events that damaged or destroyed most of it. (UF)

Fingal
Staffa's aide on Berchest, Fingal had the uncanny ability to show absolutely no emotion, no matter what the situation. He had served on Berchest for nearly ten years at the time of the Battle of Endor, as an undercover agent of the Empire, and believed his career was over until he was reactivated by Grand Admiral Thrawn. Thrawn used Fingal to keep an eye on Staffa, as well as to monitor any possible activities of Luke Skywalker on Berchest. (TLC, TTSB)

Finis Valorum Memorial
This memorial to the former Supreme Chancellor of the galaxy was erected on the Chancellery Walkway, in the Jrade District of Coruscant, during the height of the Clone Wars. Valorum himself had been killed in a Separatist attack, and his memory was honored with the dedicated of the memorial. However, his inability to put a halt to the predations of the Trade Federation left him with few supporters, and the dedication of the memorial was attended by less than 200 individuals. (SWI73)

All travel between buildings was accomplished with gondollas and repulsor-powered boats. (SL)

Finn
This young man was one of many natives of the planet Herdessa who didn't want the New Republic to take control of the galaxy, in the wake of the Battle of Endor. Finn and his friend, Suzu, lobbed mudballs at Leia Organa and Mon Mothma, when the two leaders of the Alliance arrived on Herdessa to discuss the planet position on a new galactic government. He was later captured, and was to be executed by Lumiya until Leia managed to shoot the chief of security and give Finn time to escape. (MC88)

Finn
This Imperial soldier was killed on Cilpar, during the fighting that continued in the wake of the Battle of Endor. (XWRS)

Finn
This male Sakiyan worked as the bartender at Rik's, more than 100 years after the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Finn was known as much for his skills as a bartender as he was for his skills with a blaster. Nothing seemed to phase him, and it took quite a bit to make an impression with him. (SWLB, SWLC, SWLH)

Finn
This Sith Master was a known terrorist during the years leading up to the Battle of Ruusan. He demanded unequivocal loyalty from his apprentice, as shown in the ruthless way he accepted Marka over his prior apprentice. (T17)

Finn
This little boy became lost in the cityscape of Coruscant when his nanny droid malfunctioned, just prior to the Battle of Naboo. He was rescued by Anakin Skywalker and Jar Jar Binks, who had traveled to Coruscant with Queen Amidala and her Jedi protectors, Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Anakin repaired the nanny droid and helped reunite Finn with his mother. Finn's mother then returned the favor by helping Anakin return to the Jedi Temple, where Qui-Gon was waiting for him. (ATR)

Finn, Aleema
This female Omwati lived with her husband, Kodo, on Coruscant, during the years surrounding the Clone Wars. After the establishment of the Galactic Empire, Aleema and Kodo were accosted by a group of Nikto and Duros thugs known as the Nashtah Gang. Only the timely intervention of Jedi Padawans Zonder and Ekria saved their lives. Kodo received a serious burn on the neck, but eventually survived the attack. Kodo was unaware that the attack had been arranged by Prince Xizor, until it was discovered that the burn marks were arranged in such a way as to resemble the symbol of Black Sun. She was distraught about the attack, but was perhaps equally dismayed to learn that Kodo had been accepting bribes from the Tagge Company, in exchange for preferential docking locations for their vessels. Kodo wasn't sure how this related to Black Sun, until he revealed that TaggeCo. had also been asking for docking assignments to many of its competitors, including Xizor Transport Systems. The Padawans eventually convinced Xizor to let Kodo go free, exchanging information on TaggeCo.'s shipping schedules for Kodo's promise to never return to Coruscant. Aleema and her husband left the planet behind, and set out to rebuild their lives. (EAP)

Finn, Jasta
This rough, grim-looking man was a bounty hunter who worked in the Borderlands Region of the galaxy during the early years of the New Republic. He was loyal to Janelle Serap, and did much of her dirty work from a base on Seikosha. It was Finn who received the shipment of astromech droids and weapons from Simms Jonndril, including the droid R1-T4. (POC)

Finn, Kodo
This tall, pale Omwati male lived with his wife, Aleema, on Coruscant, during the years surrounding the Clone Wars. Kodo himself worked as a traffic controller for the Coruscant Shipping Authority. During the Clone Wars, he accepted several gifts from the Tagge Company, truly believing that they were just being nice to him. He later started receiving requests from TaggeCo. vessels, asking for specific landing locations. After the establishment of the Galactic Empire, Kodo and his wife were accosted by a group of Nikto and Duros thugs known as the Nashtah Gang. Only the timely intervention of Jedi Padawans Zonder and Ekria saved their lives. Kodo received a serious burn on the neck, but eventually survived the attack. Kodo was unaware that the attack had been arranged by Prince Xizor, until it was discovered that the burn marks were arranged in such a way as to resemble the symbol of Black Sun. He then revealed that the gifts he had been receiving from TaggeCo. had escalated in size and value, from gemstones and credit chips up to a new airspeeder. He then realized that TaggeCo. had started asking for the docking assignments of other shipping operations, including those of Xizor Transport Systems, and the reason behind the attack became clear to the Jedi Padawans. The Jedi managed to infiltrate Xizor's palace on Coruscant and obtain an audience with him, and eventually convinced the crimelord to allowed Kodo to go free, in exchange for his knowledge of TaggeCo.'s shipping schedules. Kodo agreed to leave Coruscant and never return. Unknown to Kodo and the Jedi, however, was the fact that Xizor already knew a great deal about TaggeCo.'s operations, and that he had his own reasons for letting Kodo go free. (EAP)

Finna, Rafe
This bounty hunter was licensed by the Empire, and was rumored to have been hired by the Lant Mining Corporation to eliminate certain disruptive individuals from the floating city of Gadde, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. (FBS)

Fin'Rotha, Var'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)

Fin-So-Rowan
This ancient Cerean was one of a handful of forward-thinking Jedi Masters who developed the idea of creating a mobile base of operations for the Jedi of the Old Republic. Some 400 years before the Battle of Yavin, these Jedi Masters felt that the Jedi - as well as the rest of the Republic - were resting on their laurels, and needed to ensure their continued development and advancement or become stagnant. To this end, Fin-So-Rowan and his fellow Jedi designed the massive training ship Chu'unthor, to serve as mobile base of operations from which the Jedi could observe the galaxy and keep pace with its trends. (PJSB)

Fio, Rina
This Vulptereen female served as the President of Viper Sensor Intelligence Systems during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. She was removed from office when Arakyd Industries launched an assault on VSIS headquarters on Vulpter, in response to VSIS' theft of the plans for probe droids. Rina Fio and her directors spent their entire security budget on hiding the development of the XPLR-R droid, leaving the corporate security force at minimal strength. They were no match for Arakyd's AAD-4 assault droids. Rina Fio was removed from her position as President, but remained an employee for Arakyd after the takeover. (HNN5)

Fioer Desert
This desert was located on the planet Zaraksander. (GG10)

Fiolla
This was one of the most common female names among the Corellians. (GMR9)

Fiolla
A female human with dark skin, hair, and eyes, Fiolla was a Lorrdian who worked for the Corporate Sector Authority as an auditor during the early years of the New Order. Her full name was Hart-and-Parn Gorra-Fiolla of Lorrd, although she found it easier to interact with others if she used the shortened form of Fiolla. Fiolla was born into middle-class boredom on Lorrd, and she grew up most admiring her uncle, Rewello. He was a renowned comic and mimic who had once played in front of the Regent of Alderaan. Fiolla did well in school, and eventually accepted a scholarship to the University of Kalla. During a break period, Fiolla and her roommates chose to vacation on Etti IV. It wasn't glamorous, but the shopping was great. While on Etti IV, Fiolla thwarted a murder attempt by Rex Shaxrigge on Dagmar Vozda. Vozda was working undercover to expose Shaxrigge, and was impressed with Fiolla's spirit. Vozda hired Fiolla into service with the Corporate Sector Authority after graduation, and Fiolla began to impress hre superiors almost immediately. When Vozda retired, Fiolla was in perfect position to take over the position of Detached Duty Officer for the Office of the Auditor-General. She had been on the trail of a slavery ring within the Authority, having tracked it all the way to Odumin, when she met up with Han Solo at Bonadan. She had been conducting random checks of Authority operations, and came upon Zlarb's involvement. She planned to intercept him at the Bonadan spaceport, but found Han instead. They teamed up to solve the slavery ring, following Zlarb's trail to meet with the Mor Glayyd on Ammuud. It was on Ammuud that Fiolla discovered that the Tynnan skip-tracer, Spray, was actually Odumin, who was one of her superiors and had also been working to uncover the slavers. Her efforts in exposing the ring, coupled with the organizational housekeeping Odumin performed to remove those involved in the slavery ring, resulted in a promotion to the position of Auditor-General several years later. She eventually established Hart and Parn Starships near the city of Qatamer, on her homeworld of Lorrd. The operation started out as a simple landspeeder dealership, but soon became one of the largest starship dealerships in the Kanz Sector. (HSR, CSA, SWDB, OWS)

Fir, Golga Besadii
This Hutt represented Nal Hutta to the New Republic, but only as an envoy and not as a full Senator. A member of the Besadii kajidic by birth, it was said that Golga had a touch of the Desilijic clan in him, mainly because he had a desire for human women. After it was learned that Borha the Hutt had made a deal to ally the Hutts with the Yuuzhan Vong, Golga ousted from Coruscant. He agreed to meet with Viqi Shesh, who tried to gather information on the Yuuzhan Vong's next moves. (JE)

Fira
This was the traditional weapon used by the members of the Order of Shasa, on the planet Manaan. It was a curved sword which each member of the Order of Shasa had to forge on their own, using only metals found in the wreckage of a kolto harvester located in the Hrakert Rift. The harvester's plating contained cortosis, which made fira blades impervious to lightsabers. The forging of a fira was a time-consuming and dangerous project, since the cortosis-laden metal had to be shaped and annealed in the heat of underwater volcanic vents. (PH)

Firagh
This was one of the largest landmasses on the planet Thonner, and was considered a continent on many planetary maps. (GMR9)

Firaxa

Firaxa Room
This luxurious restaurant was located in Ahto City, on the planet Manaa, during the height of the New Order. (PH)

Firaxan Shark
This was a vicious, predatory fish that was native to the oceans of Manaan, where it also known simply as a firaxa. These territorial creatures would attack anything and everything that invaded their territory, regardless of whether it was organic or mechanical. Fisherbeings reported that firaxa would attack boats and submersible vehicles. The only creatures that seemed to be immune to the predations of the firaxa were the Selkath that evolved on Manaan. It was believed that the firaxan sharks were descended from a creature known as the Progenitor, the largest specimen ever recorded on the oceans of Manaan. The Progenitor protected and controlled her offspring, and it was believed that her death gave the younger firaxa the freedom to prowl the oceans on their own. Some xenobiologists believed that, on a very distant level, the firaxan shark was genetically related to the Selkath, a possibility that seemed to explain the fact that the Selkath were never attacked by a firaxa. Some 4,000 years before the Galactic Civil War, the kolto mining operation at Hrakert Station wakened a huge firaxan shark, and the fish began to terrorize the scientists and workers at the facility. Many of the Selkath on Hrakert Station went insane, worrying that the shark would consume them. The machinery within the facility was destroyed by the Jedi Knights who were searching for a piece of the Star Map, in an effort to drive off the shark without killing it. (PH, KOTOR, WOTC)

Firdaaz, Gammer
This ancient, Socorran scout served aboard the FarStar, although quite often he was more drunk than sober. He volunteered for the job on the FarStar in an effort to see as much of the galaxy as he could before he died. In one of his drunken stupors, he discovered the strange plants brought aboard the corvette after Kl'aal stumbled upon a spore-spreading plant on Binaros. Later, after the FarStar penetrated the Kathol Rift, Gammer elected to remain on the planet Demonsgate in order to maintain the Lifeline project. (DARK, KO, KR)

Fire
This was the only word used to describe one of the four humanoid, child-like droids discovered by Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa on an uncharted world, while they were on a diplomatic mission to the Akuria System, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Fire was named for the fact that he could control the flames of a blazing fire. All four children were distinguished from humans by their glowing, yellow eyes. They were created by the Keeper to break the monotony of its millennia-long work of rebuilding the planet, and their special powers helped the Keeper in its reformation efforts. (PZZ1)

Fire Blade
This unusual weapon was originally designed as a basic cutting tool. However, after beings learned that Uda-Khalid had a pair of fire blades attached to his forearms, fire blades found another use. The blade of the tool was energized to assist in the cutting process. It was believed that the fire blade was originally created on Dathomir, by lizard keepers who used it to cut and cauterize the paws of domesticated Kwi. (NEGW, RF1)

Fire Breather
One of the biological constructs of the Yuuzhan Vong, this thirty-foot-tall creature resembled a huge, walking balloon. It moved about a six stubby legs, and its body was studded with hose-like tentacles. From each of these tentacles, the fire breather ejected a stream of thick fluid, which caught fire in the presence of oxygen and incinerated everything it touched. These creatures were protected by their thick hides, and their normal exhalations were filled with special chemicals that dispersed blaster fire. The Yuuzhan Vong first employed these creatures during the attack on Gyndine. (JE, NJOSB)

Fire Bush

Fire Direction Center
This was the name given to the military unit of the Old Republic that was responsible for locating targets and coordinating the pattern of fire for an army's artillery divisions. Each FDC was located, unusually, well behind the front lines, and often in a fortified, below-ground bunker. Here, the sophisticated targeting equipment of the Republic's military was housed and operated, with technicians and commanders on duty around the clock. The FDC was linked directly to the forward artillery units, and provided every piece of artillery with instructions as the battle raged around them. The primary benefit of the FDC was that artillery fire can be coordinates across a large field of battle, bringing the maximum firepower to bear on any given target, depending on the tide of the battle. (JT)

Fire Emerald
This valuable gemstones were named for the fire-like light that pulsed at the heart of each emerald. (CN1)

Fire Node
This was one of the many precious gemstones found in the galaxy. (HSE)

Fire Ring of Fornax
Named for the unusual prominences which orbit the planet Fornax, this was the name given to a circle of flames in which pirates dueled against each other. Most often, duels to the death were fought inside a Fire Ring, so that no combatant could try to escape without being seriously burned in the attempt. (PP, SWJ5)

Fire Rings of Fornax
see Five Fire Rings of Fornax (E4N)

Fire River
Known to xenogeologists as a "closed-loop lava flow," the Fire River was a naturally-occuring river of lava that was continually fed by the seven active volcanoes of the Burning Moon Range. As the lava moved along the Fire River, moving along the Canyon of Despair, it dropped back below the mountains and was reheated. The geological flow underground was the reverse of the surface flow, creating the closed loop. The path of the Fire River, unlike that of a water-filled river, changed each month due to the natural tidal affects of Kintan's three moons. (GORW)

Fire Speeder
This was a generic term used to describe any repulsor-powered vehicle designed to fight fires. Several forms of fire speeders were produced, depending on the environment in which they were to be used. Larger models were produced to put out fires on burning starships at landing strips, while relatively smaller versions were used to fight fires in buildings. (IS3)

Fire Spitter
Similar in many respects to the fire breather, the fire spitter was a creature bio-engineered by the Yuuzhan Vong to act as a kind of wrist-mounted flame thrower. In order to use a firespitter, a Yuuzhan Vong warrior had the bones in their forearm removed completely. The fire spitter's spine was inserted in place of the arm bones, and the circulatory system of the fire spitter was grafted to that of the warrior. The fire spitter then fed on the warrior's blood as it passed through its system. The head of the fire spitter was attached to a snakelike neck that wrapped around the warrior's wrist, and its vestigial arms were used to grasp onto the warrior's arm. When called upon in battle, the fire spitter forcefully vomitted out a ball of biomatter at its target. When ignited by the fire spitter, this ball spread chemical fire in every direction, engulfing the target in flame. (GMR8)

Fire Stew
A spicy, hot-flavored stew. (TJP)

Fire Suppression Ship
This was the generic term used to describe any vessel that was designed and manufactured to combat fires aboard starships in planetary atmospheres. These vessels were loaded with water and chemical fire retardants, in order to fight any form of fire. (VD3)

Fire Team Three
This was one of the many fire-suppression teams that protected the skies of the planet Coruscant during the height of the Clone Wars. Two members of this team were killed while trying to prevent the dying hull of the Invisible Hand from causing too much damage when Anakin Skywalker brought it to a controlled crash-landing on Coruscant. (SWDB)

Fire Wasp

Fireater
This New Republic cruiser was stationed at Durren, in the early years of the New Republic. Along with the Courane, it was dispatched to Cybloc XII to investigate the spread of the Death Seed plague there. The Fireater was later was then sent to defend Nam Chorios, where it was destroyed by the combined attack of a group of Needle ships. (POT)

Fireballs
This was an expression of excitement used by the youth of the planet Kuan, during the height of the New Order. (TSC)

Firebeetle
This predatory insect was once native to large portions of the planet Taanab, until they were eradicated from most populated areas about thirty years before the onset of the Clone Wars. These insects were named for their stinging bite, which injected a toxin that made most humanoid beings feel as if they were on fire. Obi-Wan Kenobi stumbled into a nest of firebeetles during his training to become a Jedi Knight, when he became overconfident in his abilities. Although it was a painful experience, he looked back on it with amusement as a vital lesson that was learned. (CWWS)

Firebird Society
Originally founded by Tessala Corvae, this secret organization was based in Tapani Sector during Corvae's command of the 1st Tapani Assault Battelgroup. The Firebird Society was first dedicated to the education of Imperial leaders on the usefulness of women in the military, but grew to become a vigilante group which instituted its own forms of justice in the name of the Empire. (LOE)

Firebrand
This modified YT-1300 freighter was owned and operated by Zardra Vykas, during the last decades of the Old Republic. Note that this ship is also referred to as the Rogue Moon in Ultimate Adversaries. (UA)

Firebrand
This style of lightsaber hilt was common among the new order of Jedi Knights who were trained by Luke Skywalker during the height of the New Republic. The Firebrand was completely black in color, and had a thin body that was ribbed along the lower half for a more stable grip. One side of the hilt was raised, with the activation switch being located at the lower end. The end of the Firebrand hilt bulged outward to accommodate the power cells. A thin deflector ring protected the wielder's hands from energy backwash. (JKAP)

Firebug
Another name for a phosphor bug. (COJ)

Firecat
A beast which was more dangerous after it had been wounded. (SE)

Fireclaw
This Imperial Interdictor cruiser partolled Lifh Sector during the Galactic Civil War. During the Alliance's attempt to liberate Vilosoria, the astromech R2Z-DL managed to discover Imperial codes and information on an imminent malfunction in the Fireclaw's gravity well projectors. Koedi Raef used the codes to redirect the Fireclaw, ordering it to remain in position until the projectors could be repaired. In the meantime, the Alliance was able to eliminate the Imperial garrison on Vilosoria and free the planet from Imperial control. (CRO)

Fireclaw Horde
This mercenary gang appeared on the criminal scene of the Cularin System during the final years of the Old Republic, when they tried to ambush the luxury Liner Queen of Cularin. They established a base of operations in the abandoned city of Nub Saar, in orbit around the planet Genarius, where they also began working on a variant of the MMR-9 recovery droid. This new droid would be used as the first line of attack when the ambush took place, operating in the vacuum of space to disable the Queen of Cularin and leave the vessel open to boarding actions.

As the droid project neared completion, the Fireclaw Horde sent a group of Togorians to Tindark to obtain the security codes that would allow them to acquire several MMR-9 prototypes. They were interrupted by the droid's designer, Imik Suum, who managed to escape after witnessing the Togorians murdering other witnesses. A group of freelance agents tracked the Togorians to their hideout on Nub Saar, where they discovered the gang's plans for the Queen of Cularin. These agents managed to intercept the luxury liner before the Fireclaw Horde could launch their attack, and drove off the mercenaries.

Investigation into the Fireclaw Horde and its activities led authorities to implicate them in an attempt to steal Gomalo's treasures, and then led to the discovery that the mercenary gang was being led by Mebara Jos. (JST2, JST3)

Firecomb Sea
This was the Imperial name for the T'Klin S'Rek, located on the planet Goroth Prime. (GSE)

Firecracker Mine
This form of weapon uses a group of small charges combined into a single mine. When activated, the firecracker mine sets off several small explosions which were used more for distraction than destruction. (TT)

Firedrake
This unusual insect, native to Gallinore, emitted colored lights, heat, and sparks of energy as it moved about. When viewed at night, these large creatures presented an impressive and beautiful display of light. The Hapan people tried to transplant a colony of firedrakes on Hapes, but the insects soon died. They had a sort of symbiosis with the ecosystem of Gallinore, and rarely survived off-world. Instead of live firedrakes, Hapans used artificial light shows to simulate their wondrous flights. In their natural habitat, firedrakes hunted in packs, and were intelligent enough to plan out an ambush to bring down large prey. (DJ)

Firefacet
This four-sided, elongated gemstone was known for its brilliant, internal firelight. Lando Calrissian received a number of them from Duchess Mistal of Dargul, as part of his reward for finding Dack, some seven years after the Battle of Endor. (JS)

Firefolk
This was the codename of a silver-haired man who was a member of the resistance on Samaria, during the early months of the New Order. Firefolk accompanied Dinko on a mission to meet Ferus Olin, after Olin was instructed by Emperor Palpatine to offer the resistance a chance to cease their operations. When the group agreed to help Ferus ensure that Roshan ambassador Robbyn Sark escaped from Samaria, Firefolk and Nek were both forced to go into hiding, in order to ensure that the resistance was not exposed. (LJ6)

This race of diminutive humanoids was native to the planet Dantooine. (SWDB)

Firegem
This was a generic term used to describe any valuable gemstone that seemed to glow with its own, inner light. (GORW)

Firegnat
An insect native to Clak'Dor VII, the firegnat's bite releases a burning saliva-like secretion. (TCC)

Firehawk
This was a common name for the Gorm Talquist S-1 repulsortank, which was regarded as the first Firehawk-class repulsortank produced for use by the Imperial armed forces. (SWJ15, OWS)

Firehawk-class Repulsortank
This was one of the first forms of military repulsortank developed exclusively for use by the Empire. The Firehawk was known as the S-1 repulsortank, and was produced by Gorm Talquist. (SWJ15, OWS)

Firehead
This nimble creature was native to the frozen polar regions of the planet Rhinnal. Essentially an ambulatory fish, the firehead used its high body temperature to burrow into the ice. A knobby growth their upper jaw, which glowed like a bit of lava, was used to melt and scrape the ice. This knob was also used to kill the firehead's prey, and swarms of fireheads worked to gether to attack larger prey. The fireheads served as sources of both heat and food for the native Rhinnalians. (CCW)

Firejelly
This was a Yuuzhan Vong weapon, first used during the Second Battle of Coruscant. The sticky jelly was highly flammable, and stuck virtually everything it came into contact with. This caused fires to spread rapidly, as the firejelly at the source of the fire remained in contact with the surface. 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 firejelly 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. (SBS, UF)

Fire-kraken
This vicious creature was known to inhabit the deepest oceanic trenches found on the planet Nal Hutta. It was distinguished by its snake-like tendrils, which it used to locate and capture its prey. (TCD)

Firelance
This was one of the Nebulon-B frigates which were used by the Imperial Navy, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (XW)

Firelands
This was another name for the Yar'En crater, located on the planet Goroth Prime. (GSE)

Fire-linking
This was the term used to describe the practice of combining the firepower of two or more starship weapons in the same volley of fire. Often, starship weapons are targetted independently, allowing for a greater range of fire. When weapons were fire-linked, they all fired at the same target, increasing the damage that occurred with each hit. Larger weapons like quad turbolasers batteries were essentially fire-linked bhy design, since each of the lasers was fired at the same target, at the same time. (SSOG)

Firelung
Known as pyroliosis, this disease affected the inmates who were imprisoned at the Oovo IV prison facility. Most inmates were forced to work in the zenium mines, where they were exposed to zenium dust. Despite the best efforts to filter out the dust, zenium still found its way into the lungs of the prisoners, where it acted like a dry acid and destroyed the tissues of the lungs. In this way, a being was literally consumed from the inside by the zenium dust, until their lungs were no longer capable of functioning. (CN2)

Fire-mantid
This was a species of insect that was known to become very agitated during its mating season. (COTF)

Firepath
This complex board game involves strategy and planning from each of two players. They were required to move their pieces on a board which was divided up into four Radials (Eastern, Western, Northern, and Southern) and four Rings (Fool's, Sorcerer's, Traitor's, and Beast's). Each Radial and Ring had seven Stones. Among the pieces were the Cardinal and the Merchant. When a piece from one player was captured by another, it disapears in a consuming pillar of fire. Darth Vader once lured Clat the Shamer onto a Firepath game board, during a match with Lady Dhol. Vader captured Clat on the board, consuming the assassin in flame. He later executed Dhol the same way, for her part in the deception. (CSWDW)

Firepoint
This was the term used by the Chiss to describe any remote military installation located to that it could protect another installation. Firepoints were often housed in asteroids or other natural bodies. Inside the asteroid was a self-contained military base, complete with fighters or weapons emplacements. If an enemy ship tried to reach a hidden Chiss location, they would have to pass by one or more of these firepoints, and would be destroyed or disabled long before it reached its target. The Chiss lined the outer edges of The Redoubt with firepoints, to protect the refuge they had hidden within the cluster. (SQ)

Fire-Rain 3
This Imperial bio-agent was developed at supply depot I-389, under the direction of Moff Sartar, during the years following the Battle of Yavin. Moff Sartar planned to test Fire-Rain 3 on the populations of Anchorhead and Mos Eisley, but a team of Alliance agents managed to destroy the lab and all samples of the bioagent. (RESB)

Firerider
This Starwind-class passenger yacht was owned and operated by Serdo for many years. Ostensibly, Serdo used the ship as a transport ship, carrying government officials and dignitaries to and from their appointments. In reality, Serdo used these trips to smuggle spice between planets. After amassing his own fortune, Serdo retired and sold the ship to Fizzi's Slight User Starships. The Firerider was armed with turret-mounted light ion cannon for defense. (SS)

Fireship
This was a generic term used to describe any ship that was designed for fighting onboard fires in starships that were near or in the atmosphere of a planet. These ships had huge, reinforced holds that could carry large quantities of water or fire-retardant chemicals, and were equipped with power jets that could spray the water onto a burning vessel. Each of these jets was placed on sturdy arms or wings that stood out from the main fuselage. The jets could be aimed and fired by the crew, either from dedicated observation points or from the main cockpit. A small tractor beam generator mounted on the ship's underbelly added the ability to manipulate debris or secure victims from a danger zone. (IS3, SWI83)

Firespeeder
This was the generic term used to describe any repulsorlift vehicle designed to fight fires on the ground. Depending on the type of speeder used as the basic vehicle, firespeeders could combat fires alone, or with the assistance of fireships. (HWS)

Firespice
This exceptionally-hot vegetable was grown on the planet Darlyn Boda. The pods it produced contained a good deal of flavor, but also a large quantity of a chemical that caused the mouth of most humanoids to burn with a spicy heat. (WOA34)

Firespray
This was the brand name of BlasTech's DL-87 deck clearing blaster. (PP)

Firespray Module
This form of DarkStryder technology was powered by the intense energies contained in the Lifewell. When activated, the Firespray module emitted a fan of green flame which could burn anything it its path. Like most DarkStryder technology, though, the Firespray module was only usable in Kathol Sector. Any attempt to remove it from the Sector and use it would result in the destruction of the module. (E)

Firespray-31 Patrol Craft
A 21.5-meter-long starship that was built for a very short time by Kuat Systems Engineering, the Firespray-31 was built for speed and stealth, and was originally marketed as a patrol and law-enforcement craft. Its design incorporated an "engines-down" configuration, with the cockpit and cargo area mounted above and perpendicular to the engine area. This configuration meant that the pilot landed the ship while looking straight up and away from the landing platform, and flew the ship in a "standing up" position. This required that the cockpit console be mounted on a rotating platform, giving the pilot the ability to see where he was going. Two-thirds of the ship's hull area was dedicated to the engines, which accounted for its remarkable speed. It also points out the ship's lack of popularity among independent spacer, as there was just enough space for fifty metric tons of cargo.

The original mission profile for the Firespray-31 was to serve as a prisoner transport, but it was easily customized for general transport duty or system law enforcement duties. The basic model of Firespray-31 was armed with a pair of turret-mounted blaster cannons on the nose of the ship, as well as a tractor beam projector. Additional weapons mounting points were located at various points on the hull, allowing individual owners to augment these weapons as needed. Maneuverability was provided by the two outboard wings, which could rotate to give the ship different attitudes in flight. The wingspan was just over twenty-one meters.

It was generally believed that the five of the six original prototypes of the Firespray-31 patrol craft were destroyed by Jango Fett sometime before the onset of the Clone Wars, after he acquired his own version of the ship, known as the Slave I. However, Kuat Systems Engineering maintained possession of the blueprints, and later sold them to several independent starshipwrights, allowing small numbers of these ships to be built in the years that followed. Each of these was slightly different that Fett's ship, making them prized as collector's items. Kuat Systems Engineering began producing its own version of the Firespray-31 during the height of the New Order. In order to create a single stock model, KSE recalled the other licensed blueprints from the starshipwrights, but a few copies of the blueprints remained in circulation for many more years.

These new ships were marketed as patrol and pursuit missions, and many of them ended up in the hands of the Mandalorian Protectors. Over the years, these unique vessels were seen less and less, although some smugglers still used them. Most of these remaining ships have been highly modified. (MTS, EGV, WOTC, NEGV, SSOG)

Firespray-class Patrol Vessel
This was another designation for the Firespray-31. (PP)

Firesprite
This was another name for the Wisties who lived on the Forest Moon of Endor. (OWS)

Firest, Ledick
This man served the Alliance as a Colonel in the armed forces that were deployed to Echo Base, on the planet Hoth, during the years following the Battle of Yavin. Colonel Firest was known for the development of his subordinates and commanders, who survived more battles than any other group during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (SWI74)

Firestar 10-K
This custom-crafted model of blaster carbine was develped during the height of the New Order. (SWGAL)

FireStar Orbital Defense Station
Designed and manufactured by Rendili StarDrive, the FireStar Orbital Defense Station was capable of protecting and entire planet. Crewed by 500 officers and 208 gunners, the FireStar was armed with 148 laser cannons and 60 concussion missile launchers. The central section of the FireStar contained landing pads and hangars, while four towers pierced the platforms and rose eleven levels above and five levels below the central section. The FireStar could handle up to 500 passengers, and could store enough supplies for six months of autonomous activity. Produced during the last century of the Old Republic, the FireStar station never reached a wide market, and most of the stations built were purchased by planetary governments. (HAS)

Firestone
This was a generic term used to describe an entire family of gemstones. Firestones were found on a variety of worlds, and each planet's form of firestone contained subtle differences that allowed it to be identified by gemologists. They were named for the way in which light was captured inside the stone's crystalline structure and flashed back at the eye, as it the stone were bursting with first. Most firestones were identified by the background color upon which the stones displayed their fiery flashes. The possession of a firestone was generally considered to be unlucky, although the basis of this belief was eventually traced to disgruntled diamond merchants who were losing money to firestone sales. (MBS)

Firestone, Wadie
This man served the Alliance as a scout during the early years of the Galactic Civil War. He and Arlo Tyre were dispatched to investigate the loss of contact with a remote archaeological excavation on Alashan, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. After Arlo was killed when he activated the site's defense systems, Wadie tried to return to his home base to report on the incident. However, the ancient site's defenses detected his flight and shot his Y-Wing out of the sky. Wadie was killed in the explosion. (MCI5)

Firestorm
Following the destruction of the Shockwave, this Imperial-class Star Destroyer became the flagship of Harrsk's fleet. He turned it over to Admiral Daala when he ordered her to assume command of the fleet. It was on the Firestorm that Daala later turned over control of the Imperial Navy to Pellaeon. (DS)

Firestorm
This one one of four Corellian CR90 Corvettes under the command of Lumiya, following the Battle of Endor. The Firestorm was modified to allow it to carry up to four TIE Fighters, which could be deployed in an ambush. (GAL3, OWS)

Firestorm
This was one of the Nebulon-B frigates which were used by the Imperial Navy, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (XW)

Firestorm
This was an improved version of the Inferno starfighter engine system, produced by MandalMotors during the height of the New Order. (SWG2P)

Firestorm 2
This was an enhanced version of the Firestorm starfighter engine system, produced by MandalMotors during the height of the New Order. (SWG2P)

FireStorm-1
This was a model of air-to-ground missile launching system produced by SoroSuub. The Firestorm could fire 250 missiles per rack. Each missile had to be fired separately, which made the weapon slow to refire. (SS, GFT)

Firethorn
This Galactic Alliance frigate was brought to the Kuat System, some ten years after the end of the war with the Yuuzhan Vong, to safeguard the peace treaty negotiations between the Galactic Alliance and the leaders of the Five World Party. The Firethorn was stationed in orbit near Toryaz Station, where it served to protect the beings who had gathered in the Narsacc Habitat. (LF1)

Firethorn Tree
These 100-meter tall trees were native to the Irugian rain forest, on the planet Abbaji. (SE)

Firewind
This was one of the many Victory-class Star Destroyers which saw continued duty in the Imperial Navy, during the Galactic Civil War. (SWJ2)

Firework
This was a slang term used by the Special Operations units of the Alliance to describe any device that contained a large fusion reactor. (GG9)

Fireworm
Also known as the Lava Dragon, this creature was native to the planet Eol Sha, where it survived the intense heat and pressure of the molten lava it lived in. Its body was protected by armor-like scales made of crystallized silicon, and it resembled a huge snake with pointed ear tufts made of hard scales. The fireworm literally breathed the lava, extracting oxygen and other gases for respiration. It also used the extracted gases to fill insulating air bladders, which also kept it bouyant in the lava. Some seven years after the Battle of Endor, Gantoris tested Luke Skywalker's motives by making Luke walk across a lava pit to confront the fireworm living in it. Luke tried to kill the fireworm with his lightsaber, but the creatures scales only refracted the lightsaber's beam and deflected it into dozens of smaller light beams. Luke managed to use his lightsaber to cut a small chunk out of one of the fireworm's scales, and the small gap allowed the superheated lava to contact unprotected flesh. The fireworm eventually was killed when its internal organs were destroyed by the lava. (JS, JASB)

Firil, Sirenas
This bounty hunter teamed up with Chandrex Grenn in an effort to hunt down Pallas Quintell on Kallistas. She was part of a small guild based on Port Evokk, but maintained the ability to freelance on the side. The two hunters managed to survive a firefight near Quintell's desert base and captured him, returning the rebel to Prefect Rinn for a 1,000-credit bounty. (GG10)

Firith
A common name given to Twi'lek males, this name meant "defender". (GCG)

Firkrann
This was one of the many crystals used by the ancient Sith Lords in the construction of a lightsaber. It was believed to have given the wielder the ability to cause more damage to a droid opponent. It was created by the ancient natives of Rafa V. (KOTOR)

Firkrann
This FLTCH-series combat droid was a member of the Iron Knights, during the height of the Clone Wars. Firkrann was among the forces that opposed the Separatist army that eventually took control of Xagobah, and was killed by General Grievous during the fighting. (SWI86)

Firrerre
This planet was the homeworld of the Firrerreo race. It was perhaps most famous for the 1,263-meter Grand Falls waterfall. The planet was rendered uninhabitable by the Empire after Hethrir betrayed it to Darth Vader and the Emperor, and it surface remained toxic for many decades. The inhabitants of the planet were thought to have been exterminated, until Hethrir, Rillao, and Tigris were discovered by Leia Organa Solo some fourteen years after the Battle of Yavin. It was then revealed that a good number of Firrerreo were trapped in suspended animation aboard a group of colony ships, sent out years ago on orders from Hethrir to colonize nearby planets. Hethrir had been secretly raiding the colony ships for slaves, but any Firrerre that was reawakened was allowed to go free. (CS, EGP, NECH)

Firrerrean Silk
This fine fabric was created by the Firrerreo and used to make beautiful cloaks and jackets. (E1A5)

Firrerreo
This tall race of near-humans was native to the planet Firrerre. These beings had uniquely striped hair, nictitating membranes covering their eyes, and golden skin that turned silver when scarred. The Firrerreos possessed limited spacefaring technology, and had only recently perfected sublight travel when Hethrir convinced them to head for nearby planets while being held in hibernation, during the height of the New Order. Those that were placed on the colony ships became the only surviving Firrerreo in the galaxy, as Hethrir later turned the planet over to the Empire, which destroyed the ecosystem with a biological weapon. Hethrir had been raiding the colony ships for slaves over the years, until his death at the hands of the being Waru. As a people, the Firrerreo had strong clan affiliations, and a fair amount of Force sensitivity. They rarely used their given names aloud, because the use of a Firrerreo's name compelled the being to obey the speaker. In the years following the Second Battle of Coruscant, the Yuuzhan Vong wiped out the Firrerreo civilization in a vicious attack that was based on information the alien invaders obtained from the Firrerreos' longtime enemies, the Belderonians. (CS, EGA, FH1, NECH, NEGA)

Firrerrese
This was the native language of the Firrerreo people. (EGP)

Firril
This was the name of a noted Spiner individual. (UANT)

Firrinree
This was one of two Sh'ner-class cruisers brought to Bakura by Lwothin and the P'w'eck Emancipation Movement, during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Ostensibly, the Firrinree and its companion, the Errinung'ka formed the heart of Lwothin's fleet, which transported the Keeramak to Bakura. In reality, they were the heart of a Ssi-ruuk invasion forces, sent to Bakura after the Yuuzhan Vong subjugated the Ssi-ruuk and tried to establish a foothold along the border of the Unknown Regions. Each of these two cruisers was armed with a new paralysis weapon, which could knock out an entire city with minimal effort. However, before the Ssi-ruuk could launch their surprise attack on Bakura, the P'w'eck crewmen rose up against their masters and overpowered the Ssi-ruuk. The Errinung'ka fell first, with the Firrinree eventually surrendering as well, thus ending the plot to subjugate Bakura. (FH2)

Firro
A planet subjugated by the Empire, Firro was placed under the jurisdiction of Governor Cuvir. (MTS, GG3)

First Administrator
This political position was created by the leaders of the New Republic, as a government official who could serve as a stand-in for the Chief of State in negotiations and other political discussions. This helped to alleviate the time and schedule demands that were placed on the Chief of State, who was often inundated by requests for meetings by various member governments. (BTS)

First Alsakan Conflict
This was the first of seventeen battles that made up the Alsakan Conflicts. The First Alsakan Conflict broke out some 17,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. (OWS, NECH)

First Bank of Coruscant
This was one of the largest and most accessible banks found on the planet Coruscant, during the last years of the Old Republic. (MBS)

First Battle Group
Also known as the First Fleet, this was the first full Naval fleet commissioned by the New Republic. It was first assigned as the home guard for Coruscant, and was later sent on various tours of duty as other fleets were commissioned. It was in the area of the galaxy known as Thunder Alley when the Yevethan Great Purge began. (BTS)

First Battle of Balmorra
When Executor Sedriss rose to power in support of the reborn Emperor Palpatine, he forced the Balmorrans into an uneasy arms alliance following a battle between the various war machines produced on the planet. The New Republic, hoping to destroy the Emperor once and for all, launched a counterattack on the Imperial strongholds on Balmorra. Governor Beltane had thrown his support behind the New Republic, and his SD-10 wardroids were able to help the Republic forces defeat the Imperials and free Balmorra. (NEGC, DE2)

First Battle of Bilbringi
In the wake of the Galactic Civil War, the Bilbringi shipyards remained an Imperial depot, although they were open to most smugglers and other shippers. Grand Admiral Thrawn used the shipyards regularly, keeping his existing ships together while building new ships to expand his fleet. Just prior to this battle, Thrawn had managed to pen the New Republic on Coruscant by planting a number of cloaked asteroids in orbit around the planet. The Republic worked to locate the asteroids, and learned that they could detect them with the use of a crystal gravfield trap. The Empire had one stored at Bilbringi, and so the Republic devised a plan to steal it. At the same time, the rough smuggler's alliance was also trying to steal the Empire's CGT, in an effort to gain favor with the New Republic. Thrawn learned of the smugglers' plan, and laid a trap for the Republic. The trap was sprung, but the combined forces of the New Republic and the Smugglers's Alliance overcame the Imperial fleet. Thrawn's forces were driven away from Bilbringi. Thrawn was killed by his bodyguard following the battle. (TLC)

First Battle of Calamari
The Emperor Palpatine, reborn following the Battle of Endor into a new clone, was just beginning to stretch his new power. He called upon his weapons experts, who delivered a new superweapon, the World Devastators. He launched his initial attack at the ocean world of Calamari. The Mon Calamari - former Imperial slaves - had built many of the best starships currently used by the New Republic, and a strike at the New Republic's main shipyards would help turn the tide and get the Empire back on its feet. The Emperor's plan, however, was foiled by Luke Skywalker and Artoo-Detoo. Luke, under the Emperor's Dark Side influence, retained his allegiance to the New Republic, and fed the World Devastator's' master control codes to Artoo-Detoo, who used them to reprogram the superweapons. Instead of consuming Mon Calamari cities for raw materials, Artoo programmed them to consume each other. The Imperial fleet was decimated by the counter-attack from the World Devastators, and was forced to retreat. (DE1)

First Battle of Coruscant
This was the name given to the decisive battle of the Clone Wars. Beginning some 1,080 standard days after the Battle of Geonosis, the fighting on Coruscant was preceded by the Outer Rim Sieges, a series of battles in which the forces of the Old Republic drove the Separatists out of the Core Worlds and into the Outer Rim. However, the pursuit of the Separatists left the Republic with less than half of their full force to protect the Core. Attacks on Mygeeto, Saleucami, Tythe, and Felucia left Coruscant virtually undefended. Separatist forces, led by General Grievous, jumped into the Coruscant System from a location hidden in the Deep Core, using hyperspace routes that were considered top-secret by the Republic. Using knowledge provided to him by Darth Sidious, Grievous struck with pinpoint accuracy, harassing Republic warships and pummeling ground targets for four days. On the fifth day, Grievous was able to kidnap Supreme Chancellor Palpatine from his offices in 500 Republica despite the efforts of several Jedi Masters and their clone troopers. Grievous took Palpatine aboard his flagship, the Invisible Hand, where he was held hostage. The Separatists warships then launched an all-out attack on the planet Coruscant, using Palpatine as a human shield to prevent the destruction of the Invisible Hand. However, during the battle, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker managed to infiltrate the Invisible Hand and rescue Palpatine, freeing the forces of the Old Republic to attack at will. Ultimately, the Separatists were defeated, forcing Grievous to abandon his fleet and flee to his base of operations on Utapau. Although the Republic's victory at Coruscant helped to bring about an end to the Clone Wars, the entire battle played into the plans of Darth Sidious, who was ultimately revealed to have been Palpatine himself. With Grievous' death at Utapau and the end of the Clone Wars, Darth Sidious put Order 66 into action, destroying the Jedi Order and subjugating the entire galaxy under the tyrannical rule of his new Galactic Empire. It was later discovered that Palpatine's kidnapping by General Grievous had all been part of an elaborate test that had been set up for Anakin Skywalker, which allowed Darth Sidious to estimate the young man's skills. (OWS, LEV, O, NECH, RC66)

First Battle of Kashyyyk
This was the term used by historians to recount the fight for control of the planet Kashyyyk that occurred at the end of the Clone Wars, in the aftermath of the First Battle of Coruscant. This battle was concurrent with the final stages of the Outer Rim Sieges, and was one of the many operations in which Darth Sidious drew Jedi Knights and Masters away from Coruscant in order to solidify his base of power. The Jedi Council, however, knew that having a high-ranking Jedi Council member on Kashyyyk would draw Sidious out, and dispatched Yoda to lead the Republic's forces against the Separatists who tried to take control of the Wookiee homeworld. The combined forces of the Wookiees and the Grand Army of the Republic were able to defeat the droid armies of the Separatists at Kachirho, but it was Yoda's skills with the Force and his lightsaber that saved him from death when, in the wake of the battle, Sidious issued Order Sixty-Six to the clone commander Gree on Kashyyyk. (OWS, VD3)

First Battle of Ord Biniir
This Galactic Civil War battle was decided by the presence of the durable Y-Wing starfighters. (EGV)

First Battle of Ruusan
This was the name used to describe the epic space battle that launched the massive struggle to control the planet Ruusan, about a thousand years before the Battle of Yavin. The combined forces of the Old Republic and the Jedi Knights had been using Ruusan as a staging point for their raids on the Brotherhood of Darkness, which had established a foothold in the Mid Rim by taking control of the Kashyyyk System. In an effort to confound the Republic's forces, the Sith decided to turn the tables and either force the Republic away from Ruusan or eliminate them entirely. Using the same hit-and-run tactics, the Sith launched an initial wave of small attacks on the Republic fleet in orbit around Ruusan. Then, it launched its main fleet into hyperspace and emerged just outside the planet's orbit, a suicidal maneuver that owed its success to Lord Kaan's intense use of battle meditation to keep the fleet together. Kaan's ability to use battle meditation was not matched by that of his Jedi counterpart, and the battle began to turn to the Sith. However, the surprise destruction of the corsair Fury caught Kaan off-guard, and the Republic's forces were able to stage a brief rally. This rally was cut short when Sith Lord Kopecz located the Republic's flagship and killed the Jedi Master onboard, effectively cutting off the head of the Republic's naval forces. With the Jedi Master no longer controlling his ships through the Force, the Brotherhood's vessels made quick work of the Republic ships, and the Sith were able to win the opening battle for Ruusan. Their victory cut off the Republic's ground forces from their primary supply line, as Sith warships were able to blockade the entire system. (DBPD)

First Battle of Yavin
The Alliance, in a daring move, stole secret plans to the Empire's first Death Star battle station. Data on the ship's infrastructure and construction were obtained by Princess Leia Organa at Toprawa and hidden inside the memory banks of R2-D2. Engineering and technical readouts were stolen from the Imperial laboratory on Danuta by Kyle Katarn. After escaping the Tantive IV and locating Luke Skywalker, R2-D2 managed to deliver the plans to the secret Alliance base on the fourth moon of Yavin, where Generals Willard and Dodonna used the two sets of plans to form an attack on the Death Star. Since the space station was designed to combat large opponents, the Generals thought that a group of small fighters could get inside the Death Star's defenses. An unshielded exhaust port provided them a target to the station's main reactor, and the Alliance lured the Empire to Yavin. Once the Death Star was close enough to Yavin, the Alliance launched its long-shot plan. X- and Y-wings were used to penetrate the Death Star's defenses, and although many Alliance pilots were killed, Luke Skywalker managed to precisely fire a photon torpedo into the exhaust port and start the chain reaction which destroyed the Death Star. (E4, SFE)

First Battle of Ylesia
This battle was organized by Bria Tharen and her Red Hand Squadron, and was aimed at toppling the Besadii spice and slave enterprise there. Information on the Ylesian operation was provided by the Bothan Spynet, although they failed to report a ground-based turbolaser. Bria obtained financial backing from Jabba the Hutt, and used smugglers from Nar Shaddaa to pilot the drop ships. Among the smugglers was Han Solo, and the assault team also included a group of Togorians under the command of Muuurgh and Mrrov. Nine assault teams were created to attack each of the nine Ylesian colonies. The Besadii forces had been bolstered by Durga the Hutt's dealings with Black Sun, and were augmented by the Nova Force mercenaries. Jabba had employed several mercenaries to assasinate the t'landa Til priests before the actual battle began, eliminating a key source of possible resistance. Then, in a coordinated series of strikes, the rebel soldiers attacked the major slave colonies and engaged Nova Force. Most of the battles ended quickly, as the Alliance teams surprised the Nova Force and decimated them before much resistance could be put up. Then, smugglers piloted troop ships and rescue teams to the surface, but the turbolaser took out the first wave, including Jalus Nebl and the Dream of Freedom. Once the turbolaser was eliminated, the ground troops accepted Nova Force's surrender. The battle ended almost as soon as it began, and the Alliance successfully obtained huge amounts of spice and credits to fund its operations. Han and Chewbacca managed to rescue a group of orphaned children from the planet, and were returning them to Corellian - along with a load of spice for Jabba - when he was ambushed by Imperial forces. He was forced to dump the spice in order to save the children, placing him in debt to Jabba and forcing him to take Ben Kenobi's offer for transport to Alderaan. (RD)

First Belt
This was the name of the innermost of the Oseon Systemm's seven asteroid belts. (LCF)

First Brigade
This group of militant supporters of the Alliance rose up on the moon of Rori during the Galactic Civil War. (GQRG)

First Citizen
This was the unofficial title given to Jabba the Hutt, during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo, when the crimelord was in control of the city of Mos Espa, on Tatooine. Although there was a legally-chosen leader of the city, everyone knew that First Citizen Jabba controlled everything that happened in the city. (CVD)

First Citizen
This was the name of Borsk Fey'lya's personal starship, a Kothlis Systems Luxuflier. It was one of the last ships to leave Coruscant when the planet was evacuated in the face of a Yuuzhan Vong attack, although Fey'lya ordered it to leave without him. (SBS)

First Counselor
This was position of political power on the planet Zelos II. (DSTR)

First Dawn
A Tatooinian term referring to the time period between when the first and second suns rise. (MTS)

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

First Fleet
This was the name given to the primary naval fleet of the Galactic Alliance, during the final stages of the war against the Yuuzhan Vong. The First Fleet, comprised mainly of the surviving ships of the New Republic's First Battle Group, was commanded by Admiral Traest Kre'fey from his flagship, the Ralroost. Among the other ships in the First Fleet were the Rebel Dream and the Yald.

In the wake of the Yuuzahn Vong war, the First Fleet remained part of the Galactic Alliance's naval structure, and was eventually placed under the command of Admiral Nek Bwua'tu, during the height of the Alliance's war against The Confederation. (UF, LF6)

First Galactic Civil War
This was the term used by later historians to describe the events of the war between the Galactic Empire and the Alliance to Restore the Republic. This series of conflicts, which ostensibly began with the Battle of Yavin and ended with the Battle of Endor, were originally known simply as the Galactic Civil War. However, some 40 years after the Battle of Yavin, the events surrounding the reign of terror of Darth Caedus once again plunged the galaxy into a civil war. This war became known as the Second Galactic Civil War, with the galaxy being divided between the supporters of the Galactic Alliance and the members of The Confederation. This prompted historians to rename the original civil war as the First Galactic Civil War. (FJ1)

First Great Schism
This was the first known instance of the Jedi Knights fracturing into the users of the Light Side of the Force and those who followed the Dark Side. It occurred many millennia before the Battle of Naboo, during the early years of the Old Republic, when the Legions of Lettow split off from the followers of the Ashla, in the wake of the Force Wars. The term "Dark Jedi" was believed to have originated after the First Great Schism, describing those Jedi who had fallen to the Dark Side. (GMR5, NEGC, WOTC, NECH)

First Level Adept
This was the title given to those students of the teras kasi martial arts who reached the initial level of skill and aptitude. The testing process for a First Level Adept began after an individual had reached a certain level of mental and physical strength, and involved a four-hour-long combat session with a master. During these four hours, the master basically used their own skills to show the student just how far along the path they had yet to go before becoming a master. Those students who had the physical abilities to keep up, and the mental abilities to understand that they were on a journey of learning, were passed and allowed to train at a higher level. (DSTR)

First Mantooine Regiment

First Night
This formal dinner was something of a tradition among the military officers of the Old Republic. The First Night dinner was held aboard the flagship of a naval task force, on the first night of their assigned mission. Senior officers and commanders were invited, along with mission specialists, to gather together and get to know one another. (OF)

First Position
This was the name given to the most basic stance for hand-to-hand fighting, as defined by the combat instructors of the Grand Army of the Republic. In this stance, a fighter stood with one leg just in front of the other, with one hand held high and the other low. The fighter's posture should be loose enough to move to anticipate almost any attack, while alert enough to withstand an unexpected blow by rolling through it. (MBS)

First Principles
These were the basic ideals which were instilled into every potential Jedi candidate. Chief among them was the tenet that the Jedi Knights exist to neutralize those who who use power to become tyrants. (TT)

First Royal Bank of M'haeli

First Ruling Family
This was the name of the foremost ruling family of Chiss society. In general, the ordinal numbering of the ruling families denoted seniority, but it could also represent relative strengths among families. By the time of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, there were just four ruling families, after several families were excised when their numbers were severely reduced during the war, or after they became Joiners. (OF)

First Skywalker Emperor
This was the title that Lord Cronal hoped to bestow upon Luke Skywalker, in the wake of the Battle of Mindor. Cronal believed that Skywalker was the only being who could carry on the legacy of Emperor Palpatine, and created the character to Lord Shadowspawn to lure Luke to Mindor. (LSSM)

First Sun Mobile Regiment
This mercenary unit operated in the Mid and Outer Rim regions of the galaxy, during the Galactic Civil War. The First Sun Mobile Regiment was known for their ability to carry out SLAM missions: Search, Locate, and Annihilate Missions, such as Imperial Base Delta Zero operations. In order to ensure that there was no second-guessing these missions, General Maska Zural and his leaders hired the craziest sociopaths and misanthropes they could find. The unit preferred to employ repulsorlift infantry vehicles, and were often serving under contract to the Imperial Army. Much of their success was due to support from the Empire, despite the insistance of its leaders, who seemed to ignore the fact that sixty-five percent of their missions were funded by the Empire. In the months before the Battle of Endor, however, an entire company was executed by Moff Nile Owen for executing a group of rebels that were supposed to have been captured alive and held for interrogation. In the wake of this event, General Zural, the leader of the First Sun group, distanced himself and the unit from the Imperial remnants and hired the group out to the highest bidder. The Imperial military then began to take its contracts to other mercenary units, prompting many First Sun units to abandon their teams and join other units. After the death of Emperor Palpatine at Endor, General Zural made an attempt to hire out the First Sun Mobile Regiment to the Provisional Government of the New Republic, hoping to gain a measure of revenge against the Empire. However, the military leaders of the New Republic remembered the results of battles fought during the Galactic Civil War, and politely refused the offer. Zural then took the remaining soldiers and set out serve as a mobile mercenary force. (GG9, SWJ15, OWS)

First Temple of Prime
This was the primary governmental building of the Givin leadership on Yag'Dhul, during the last decades of the Old Republic. During the height of the Clone Wars, an immense fractal banner was erected on its façade, which displayed and repeated mathematically-converted versions of the speeches of the Jabiimite Separatist Alto Stratus. (SWI69)

First to Swim, The
This was the term used to describe the ostensible leader of The School, the alliance of races that were native to the planet Iskalon.

First-Wavers
This was the term used to describe those beings who were the first to arrive on the planet Lamaredd to work for Hugo Bartyn's seafood harvesting operation, some 500 years before the Galactic Civil War. Although generally applied to all beings imported to the planet, the First-Wavers more accurately described those beings who settled in The Ring around Bartyn's Landing. Many of the beings who were brought to Lamaredd balked at being virtually enslaved, and were set free in the middle of the planet's oceans to survive on their own. (GMR7)

Firtee Cluster
An area of warehouses and other storage facilities located on the north side of Xakrea, on the planet Darkknell. (TFNR)

Firth, Aquella
This young girl once dated Niklas Cories, during the early years of the New Order. She dismissed him as being "too old and dangerous" for her, a description which was exactly right. Cories, however, never forgot or forgave her, and eventually tracked her down aboard the Hutt pleasure yacht Sleemo Poya Jedi. He arranged for her to win tickets to the concert, an event which her father, Quoltus, had forbidden her from attending. She ran away to see the concert, unknowingly placing herself within Cories' reach. Her father hired a group of freelance mercenaries to ensure she returned safely, giving Aquella a chance to exercise her need for freedom without realizing his protection. (WOA28)

Firth, Quoltus
Native to Astal Sector, this man was Aquella Firth's father. In his youth, Quoltus was a noted singer and musician. He later retired to raise a family, and became one of the Outer Rim's best-known event promoters during the early years of the New Order. He failed to see the enjoyment in listening to the music played by her favorite band, Distraction. He also failed to see what Aquella saw in Niklas Cories, but was happy when his daughter broke off their relationship. Just to be on the safe side, though, Quoltus maintained a close watch on Cories' activities. Thus, when discovered that Aquella had run away to attend a Distraction concert aboard the Sleemo Poya Jeedai, Quoltus feared that she might run into Cories again. To ensure her safety, Quoltus hired a group of freelance mercenaries to make sure Aquella didn't get hurt. (WOA28)

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

Fish
This grizzled, old man worked as a water taxi driver in the settlement of Noua, on the planet Telerath, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Fish was looking for a fare when Dass Jennir arrived on Telerath, in the wake of the execution of Order 66, and he agreed to take Jennir to the city center for a small fee. Fish mistook Jennir to be one of the many combatants who were traveling to Telerath to compete for a position within one of the slaver gangs that was rising to power on the planet. When they reached Noua's central square, Jennir toosed Fish a bag of credits that far exceeded the total fare. Fish claimed that it was too much, but Jennir merely stated that he should consider himself on retainer. Fish gladly agreed to serve in any way possible, despite the fact that he viewed Jennir as a criminal. (DT3)

Fishface
This was one name given to the race of amphibious humanoids native to the planet Ootoola. Their skin was a mottled, bright green color, and their heads were adorned with a fin-like ridge and several finned jowls.

Fisset
This name was commonly given to Quarren males, and meant "skilled" or "talented". (GCG)

Fission Bomb
This form of high-explosive was used during the years leading up to the war against the Yuuzhan Vong. Rather than detonating with an explosive force that tore apart solid matter, a fission bomb used the matter around it as fuel, consuming matter in an ever-expanding blast radius. The initial blast created a huge void, and the expanding energy wave caused more and more damage, until the fission reaction finally died out. (LF7)

Fissona
This young Tarasin was the troublemaker of the Hiironi tribe, during the era of the Battle of Naboo. At nine years of age, Fissona was the grandson of Cryalina, but that relationship didn't save him from getting caught and punished. (LFC)

Fisto, Kit
A Nautolan, Kit Fisto was the Jedi Master who took over the training of Bant Eerin in the wake of Tahl's death. He was noted for his intense style of swordfighting, practicing Form I style and adapting it to modern combat. Years later, Master Fisto was paired with Belsed-Qan Idan to put together a task force to stop the Iridium Pirates that were ambushing Old Republic supply convoys, shortly before the onsetof the Clone Wars. While the Jedi were successful, they lost three members of their Order and were unable to save their command ship, the Monitor III. Kit Fisto was one of the Jedi Masters who accompanied Mace Windu to Geonosis, as part of the task force sent to rescue Obi-Wan Kenobi and determine the level of threat of the Conferedation of Independent Systems. His combat prowess was evident, as Master Fisto was one of the few survivors of the initial stages of the Battle of Geonosis. He went on to serve in many battles, mainly the liberation of Calamari, Devaron, and Ord Cestus. It was on Ord Cestus that he was able to infiltrate the ranks of the Desert Wind terrorist group, winning their confidence by helping them regroup and retrain for more concentrated attacks on the holdings of the Five Families. The mission was simple: discover the truth behind the production of the JK-series of security droids, and whether or not the Five Families were allied with the Separatists. Working with the ARC troopers known as Nate, Forry, Sirty, Seefor, and Xutoo, Master Fisto was able to train the ragtag terrorists into a band of able-bodied commandos who could infiltrate corporate locations and sabotage the efforts of the Five Families. Then, posing as the noted criminal Nemonus, Master Fisto nearly succeeded in manipulating the Five Families into siding with the Republic. Only the savage trickery of Asajj Ventress prevented the ruse for working, but it left Master Fisto and Obi-Wan stranded on Ord Cestus without making any progress. It was then that Ventress revealed that the entire plot to purchase JK-series droids was a carefully orchestrated sham, in which Count Dooku hoped to lure the Republic and the Jedi Order into overreacting. Once the Republic had destroyed the otherwise peaceful Cestians, the Separatist leader believed that the galaxy would flock to his side. The two Jedi, along with the ARC troopers, refused to let this happen, and Master Fisto very nearly gave his life to ensure that it didn't. His heroic efforts also came close to capturing Asajj Ventress, but the Dark Jedi managed to escape at the last moment. As the Clone Wars ground on, Master Fisto was appointed a position on the Jedi Council. As the Clone Wars began to wind down after the First Battle of Coruscant, Kit Fisto was among the group of Jedi Masters who accompanied Mace Windu to arrest Chancellor Palpatine, after it was learned that he had finally been revealed as Darth Sidious. However, the Jedi were unprepared for Palpatine's powers, and Kit Fisto was quickly killed during the fighting, leaving Mace Windu to face Palpatine alone.

Fitch
This Ferroan was one of the group which accepted a newly-shaped Sekotan starship from the Langhesi and finished off the creatoin process. They filled any seams or cracks left behind by the Jentari, then calibrated the ship's systems to it new owner. Fitch's people also provided elementary education to the new owner, but left the majority of it to the ship itself. Fitch provided guidance to the new owner, as their actions during the early life of their starship would help the ship grow mature. (RP)

Fitre
This Kubaz male worked as the bartender at the Fungus Pit, in the Bashka settlement on Ryloth, during the final years of the Old Republic. His extensive knowledge of alcoholic beverages and mixed drinks allowed him to create virtually any concoction a customer could ask for. (TS)

Fitsay
This was one of the underwater cities built by the Sedrians in the shallow oceans of Sedri. While it was known for its architeture, Fitsay was best known for being the dome which contained the Great Shell Dome which housed the Golden Sun. While having the Golden Sun gives the Sedrian priests a high level of command over their fellow Sedrians, the water supply to the Golden Sun was greatly reduced. This meant that the polyps couldn't sieve the water for plankton and other food, and the Golden Sun began to starve. It also tried to devise a way to get the priests to set it free, without incurring any harm to itself. When a group of Alliance agents traveled to Sedri to rescue Mors Odrion, they discovered the various plots by Karak, Cardo, and Commander Aban to control the Golden Sun. he Sedrians who lived in the city also called themselves "Fitsay," to distinguish themselves from other Sedrians.

Five
This was Den Dhur's friendly nickname for the droid I-5YQ. (CN3)

Five Brothers
This was an almost affectionate nickname used by the inhabitants of the Corellian System to describe the five worlds that made up the system. (AC, MF)

Five Coins
This was the small racing ship that was purchased by Oorn Noth, with financial assistance from his father. He raced the ship in a variety of events, gaining acclaim and a small fortune himself, much of which he used to upgrade the ship. Noth later retired the Five Coins after it was damaged in a race near Sullust, which forced him to seek corporate sponsorship. The SoroSuub Corporation agreed to sponsor his races, which included providing him with a new starship. (WOTC)

Five Families
This was the name given to the five clans of Cestians that controlled the Cestus Cybernetics corporation - as well as their society's government - during the last years of the Old Republic. For many generations there had been just four families, until Caiza Quill made a bold move to have his own family elevated in status. By delivering labor contracts and easing the dissent that had grown among the X'Ting during their subjugation by Cestus Cybernetics, Quill had earned himself a position on the leadership council. He also gained the favor of the original four families, who agreed to have his own family added to their numbers. Unfortunately, Quill's actions ensured that the X'Ting would be enslaved to the offworlders who ran Cestus Cybernetics, and he was quietly reviled for having sold his own people to the corporation. The Families formed the primary ruling body on Ord Cestus, controlling even the Regency. Each of the families was responsible for a different aspect of commerce on Ord Cestus, dealing with research, energy, manufacturing, sales and marketing, and mining. The director of each branch served as the leader of their respective clan, and often believed that they ruled their domains by divine privilege. When the Clone Wars came to Ord Cestus, when Count Dooku used the threat of combat-programmed JK-series droids to force the Old Republic into a rash move against the Cestians, the Five Families found themselves powerless to maintain their own control of the planet. When the warship Nexu was dispatched to force them into submission, many members fled to their secret bunker hidden in the Kibo Plateau. However, their location was discovered by Thak Val Zsinj and the ARC trooper known as Jangotat, who managed to reorient the Nexu's weapons to fire on the bunker. In a single stroke, the bunker was destroyed and the Five Families were nearly wiped out. The few survivors were left to squabble amongst themselves over their personal plans for power. In the meantime, G'Mai Duris and the X'Ting clans began to take over the facilities once owned by the Five Families, once again assuming control over Ord Cestus. (HIV, TCD)

Five Fire Rings of Fornax
This was the name given to the five distinct stellar prominences that encircled the planet Fornax. Each ring produced a brilliant, colorful display of light, and the combined effect of five such rings was considered nothing less than breathtaking. (E4N, SWI78)

Five Holy Cities
This was the term used to describe the five holiest cities that were founded by religious crusaders on the planet New Holgha. The Five Holy Cities were evacuated just before the Yuuzhan Vong attacked the planet, but the alien invaders scoured them for sustenance for their giant, organic warships. (PM)

Five Masters
This was the name given to the leadership of the Wookiee Liberation Front, during the height of the Clone Wars. The Five Masters were led by the Master in White. Each of the Five Masters was skilled in one or more forms of martial arts, among them Wrruushi and the K'thri Arts, which allowed them to move about unarmed, even in locations where their presence was not welcome. The Five Masters and many of their students were killed in a devastating attack on their Training Hall, located outside the city of Gadrin, when an unknown force ripped through the facility and burned it to the ground. (LFCW)

Five Masters Academy
This was the name given to the glass and durasteel building erected on the planet Cularin for the Wookiee Liberation Front, during the early years of the Clone Wars. The three-story-building was built on the request of the Five Masters, and funded almost completely by Barnab Chistor and his administration. The entire complex, including the Training Hall, was burned to the ground shortly after the end of the Clone Wars, when an unseen force swept through the facility and sundered it. Although Barnab Chistor and the Master in Violet were able to drive off the main attacker, it left in its wake the reanimated bodies of its victims, who attacked the two survivors. Their bodies were never found, and it was assumed that Chistor and the Master in Violet were killed. (LFCW)

Five Veils' Tour Route
This hyperspace lane connected various tourist and trade worlds in the Skine Sector of the galaxy, including the methane world of Farstine and Skynara. (GG9, OWS)

Five World Party
This was the name adopted by the unified government of the five worlds in the Corellian System, during the years following the war against the Yuuzhan Vong. The Five World Party was formed after the Galactic Alliance eliminated the governor-general position that had traditionally led the system, and replaced it with Chief of State positions from each of the five planets. These Chiefs of State were elected on their homeworld, and chose to form the position of the Prime Minister to represent Corellia, Drall, Selonia, Talus, and Tralus. The Prime Minister, supported by one Chief of State from each of the five planets in the system, was responsible for ensuring that the needs of all five worlds were balanced against the resources that were available, as well as negotiating for the entire system. As the Galactic Alliance grew in power, the Prime Minister and the Five World Party gently pushed for Corellians of all races to maintain their identity in the face of perceived homogenation within the Galactic Alliance. (LF1)

Five Worlds Prime Minister
This was the political title bestowed upon the nominal leader of the planets of the Corellian System, established in the wake of the Corellian Crisis and the imprisonment of Thrackan Sal-Solo. The Prime Minister's position was created to eliminate the stigma of the Corellian Diktat, and provide a single office to assist with governing the entire system. In this way, it was hoped that no one world could gain power over the others.

In the wake of the war against the Yuuzhan Vong, Aidel Saxan was elected to serve as the Five Worlds Prime Minister. Her tenure was strained at best, as Thrackan Sal-Solo once again started to gather power to himself, and began pushing for Corellian independence from the Galactic Alliance. When Saxan was murdered by Lumiya, Sal-Solo assumed the role of Five Worlds Prime Minister, thereby consolidating all power to himself. His own tenure lasted only a few months, as he was assassinated by Boba Fett and his own cousin, Han Solo. With Sal-Solo's death, the position of Prime Minister was overtaken by Dur Gejjen, who also consolidated power in the Corellian System to himself by also establishing himself as President of Five Worlds. (LF1, LF3)

Five, The
The rulers of the sadistic followers of the Soulworm, the Five control some of Attahox's underground. Led by Suzal, the Five included the woman Koorabee, the youth Mavin, and the lovers Chell and Chokla.

When they captured Han Solo, Leia Organa, and Chewbacca, they made a series of mistakes in underestimating the Alliance agents. All by Chokla were killed when Chewie freed the creatures of the Menagerie, as well as Han and Leia. Chokla managed to escape before Wuzzek could catch him. (CSWDW)

Five-Oh-First
This was a slang term used by many Imperial stormtroopers to describe the Imperial 501st Legion. (A)

Fiver
This early-model R7 astromech was owned by Anakin Solo. The name "Fiver" came from the five attempts Anakin made to upgrade the notoriously poor-functioning droid to the standards of an R2 unit. As Anakin became more and more involved with the fight against the Yuuzhan Vong, Fiver was not given a regular memory wipe, and developed its own personality. Fiver became much more independent, and was invaluable in Anakin's escape from the Yuuzhan Vong on Yavin 4. (BP, EVC)

Fives
This was the nickname used to describe the rookie clone trooper who was designated CT 27-5555. During the early stages of the Clone Wars, Fives was assigned to the listening post that had been established on Rishi's moon. Fives was one of a handful of rookies who survived the commando droid ambush that killed Sergeant O'Niner, although he was later injured when the clones tried to retake the communications facility from the droids. After the clones were rescued by the Republic, Fives was assigned to the 501st Legion. (CWTV05)

Fivvic
This imposing Barabel was a Commander in the Old Republic's Army of the Republic, and was in command of the mission to infiltrate Dagro to investigate the rumors of Separatist activities on the planet, some two years into the fighting of the Clone Wars. When Obi-Wan Kenobi made a decision to go ahead of the main force, Fivvic explained to Anakin Skywalker that they could not adjust their main plans to accommodate Obi-Wan's initiative. This forced the main group to delay almost four days, unaware that Obi-Wan had stumbled upona hidden Separatist base. (SWI76)

This old Aqualish served as Naz Felyood's longtime engineer aboard the pirate ship Jynni's Virtue during the height of the New Order. Fivvl also served as the ship's parttime historian, since one of his primary hobbies was studying the history of the galaxy. Much of his information was shoddy at best, but Deksi produced enough valid information to keep the crew from getting into trouble. Much of Deksi's information about the planet Korriban, however, was later rendered inaccurate by the Jedi historians of the New Republic. After landing on Korriban, Deksi and the crew found themselves beset by Korriban Zombies, when Captain Felyood tried to take the Heart of Graush. In an effort to make sure the zombies didn't get the ship, Babbnod Luroon set off the self-destruct mechanism, killing the remaining crew as well as the zombies. (PH)

Fivvle, Ars
This Ugnaught, a member of the Isced tribe, worked as a reporter for Action Tidings on Cloud City, during the height of the New Order. Fivvle had been with the network for nearly a century at the time of the Battle of Hoth, and was known for his ability to snoop out good stories. He was also known for his self-love, and many other reporters often said that he was the unofficial president of the Ars Fivvle fan club. He seemed to have a way of making himself the center of any story, although his reporting was generally considered to be in-depth and informative nonetheless.

During the height of the New Order, it was Ars Fivvle who first reported on the supposed death of Lando Calrissian, after several assassination attempts were made on the Baron Administrator's life. The stories were part of an elaborate hoax to identify the being who was trying to kill Lando. Fivvle later leaked information about the Ugnaught rebellion against Imperial Governor Treece, in the wake of Lando Calrissian's flight from Cloud City, some months after the Battle of Hoth. Fivvle and his team planned to record the eventual destruction of Cloud City, as a testament to the fortitude of the Ugnaught people. Note that Marvel Comics' Star Wars series, issue 57, depicts Fivvle and his team hiding out on the surface of Bespin, which was a swampy marsh filled with liquified gases, while waiting for the bombs to explode.

Several years after the Battle of Endor, Fivvle retired to the Ugnaught outpost of Ugnorgrad, although he remained the most popular figure of Action Tidings. His holodocumentary, Ugnaughts' Progress, was so popular on Bespin that it was eventually picked up and distributed to newsnets across the galaxy, and earned him a great many honors from broadcast agencies. This, of course, only added to his self-described legend. (MC57, PH, OWS)

Fixer
This was the nickname used by the clone commando designated RC-1140, during the early stages of the Clone Wars. Fixer was the original second-in-command of Delta Squad, and was noted for his use of callsigns instead of the nicknames the clones used. His nickname came from his love of technology and his ability to slice into computer systems. During the search for the renegade Kaminoan scientist, Ko Sai, Fixer found great pleasure in poring through computer systems in search of any information that might point to Ko Sai's whereabouts. He had a kind of rivalry during this mission with Jedi General Bardan Jusik, who was also sifting through the information. Unknown to the members of Delta Squad, their efforts were being hampered by Jusik, who delayed them on Dorumaa by forcing them to adopt the roles of public service workers in order to "blend in" and learn what they could from the local populace. During the Republic's defense of the planet Kashyyyk, Fixer reported that he had seen General Grievous on the planet, but that the cyborg had escaped before the fighting started. (LAWS, RCTC, RC66)

Fixer
This was one of three Imperial maintenance carriers assigned to the replenishment fleet which contained the Black Ice. (BI)

Fixer
One of Luke's friends at Anchorhead on Tatooine, during the era of the New Order, the Fixer was a mechanic who worked at Tosche Station, where he owned the power station there. He rarely used his given name, Laze Loneozner. The Fixer was dating Camie when Biggs Darklighter returned to Tatooine before joining the Alliance, and after they were married, they were given a home on the old Darklighter estate. The Fixer used the profits from rebuilding and selling a set of ACD-950 podracing engines to finance the wedding. When Luke arrived back on Tatooine, on a mission to locate potential pilots for the Alliance, he met up with the Fixer and Camie at the old Lars homstead. Fixer explained that the House of Tagge was buying up moisture farms, and that he had been planning to turn over the Lars farm to them. Luke objected, explaining his concern over Tagge's ties to the Empire. Both Camie and the Fixer decided it was better to save their own skins, and alerted Imperial authorities to Luke's presence on Tatooine. Fixer, however, felt a twinge of guilt, and did his best to warn Luke of the danger he had caused. (E4, E4R, MC31, OWS, IWST, RF3)

Fixer
This was the term used to describe a specialized form of computer slicer. Fixers hacked into corporate or government data centers and stole proprietary information, leaving forged - though bogus - data behind. They then sold the information on the black market. It was believed that the term "fixer" came from the Sullustan phrase tersish g'loc, which loosely translated to "fix them once and for all." (GG11)

Fixit
This was a slang term used to describe the various FX-series of medical droids, including the FX-6 and FX-7 models. (SWI74, SWDB)

Fixter, Marsh
This was the alias used by Obi-Wan Kenobi when he was approached by a group of battle droids on the planet Dagro, some two years after the Battle of Geonosis. Obi-Wan was on Dagro to investigate the presence of a Separatist base in the planet's canyons, and was staying with Kirlan Swens until the rest of his task force could arrive on the planet. It was the actions of these battle droids, who correctly assumed Marsh was a criminal because they had observed Kirlan's children not working in the fields, that led Obi-Wan to believe the rumors were true. These battle droids, he reasoned, were far superior to their predescessors, with advanced thinking capabilities. (SWI76)

Fiyarro
This was one of the three largest cities, along with Carannia and Saffia, found on the planet Serenno. (DBRT)

Fizark, Sharina
This woman lived on the planet Tatooine during the era of the Great Sith War. Her husband worked as a miner, but was also a skilled hunter. After his death in the mines, Sharina was left with very little money, and was forced to sell off some of his trophies to survive. (KOTOR)

Fizz
This unusual being, taller than most humans and having ten fingers on each hand, worked as a mechanic aboard the Kronex Spaceport during the last decades of the Old Republic. Fizz was once and informant who relayed information to the Jedi Knights via his connection to Qui-Gon Jinn. During the Clone Wars, Fizz agreed to help Qui-Gon's former apprentice, Obi-Wan Kenobi, gain information on - and access to - the Storm Fleet. (SS1)

Fizz, The
This disease was believed to have originated on the planet Woteba, during the months following the establishment of several Colony hives on the planet, a year or so after the Yuuzhan Vong were defeated. The Killiks who were afflicted by the Fizz found themselves covered with a foamy coating that seemed to eat away at their bodies, causing considerable pain until the individual simply was unable to sustain itself and expired. What made the disease unusual was that it also attacked non-living targets, such as landspeeders and landscaping equipment. UnuThul and the Colony claimed that the new Jedi Order knew about the Fizz all along, and tricked the Colony into relocating to Woteba in order to infect them. However, investigation by Cilghal and other Jedi healers revealed that the Fizz was not a naturally-occurring infection, but a kind of environmental defense system. It was a sophisticated, self-replicating nanotech virus that reacted whenever the environmental balance of Woteba was upset, and only attacked those things that were deemed to be harmful to Woteba's natural state of being. Cilghal further speculated that the Fizz was present only in the Utegetu Nebula because it had been placed there by an unknown race, to assist with restoration of the planetary systems within the nebula in the wake of the supernova that created it. Exactly where the Fizz came from, and who created it, were mysteries that the Jedi were unable to initially resolve, causing the Killiks to continue to insist that it was being used against them in order to exterminate their race. It was believed that the quarrying of moirestone and the harvesting of hamogoni wood by the Killiks, combined with the disposable to toxins into the planet's bogs, signaled the onset of the Fizz. The theory that the Fizz was designed to restore the planets to their original state was supported by evidence that the Fizz was affecting all fifteen Colony worlds within the Utegetu Nebula. (DN2)

Fizzade
This was a type of carbonated fruit juice that was popular among children of many generations. Developed during the final years of the Old Republic, fizzade was still consumed in the wake of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. (RCTZ, LF2)

Fizzer-sweet
A popular kind of candy, made during the New Order. (AIR)

Fizzik
This X'Ting was a hive relative of Trillot, born some three broods later, and worked as an informant for the crimelord during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. To ensure that he had a steady income, Fizzik also worked as a bellhop at the Grand ChikatLik hotel. Some two years after the Battle of Geonosis, Fizzik was in his male phase, a fact that helped him obtain the bellhop's job, since he had been a female domestic worker who found jobs among the wealthiest members of Ord Cestus' society. His male hormones, however, made him unappealing to his masters, so he was usually fired after his phase change and had to work lesser jobs. What remained constant was Fizzik's loyalty to Trillot, as well as his desire to please Trillot with some important piece of information. Thus, Fizzik was excited to learn that Jedi Masters Obi-Wan Kenobi and Kit Fisto had arrived on Ord Cestus. He was less excited about having to escort Trillot's main visitor, Asajj Ventress, through the warrens, as the Dark Side warrior made threats all along their travels. However, Trillot had warned him about her, so Fizzik was ready for her. Nevertheless, being in the presence of the Dark Jedi was unsettling enough that Fizzik never forgot it. His strength in the face of danger made Trillot think twice about her distant relative, and the crimelord gave Fizzik a permanent position in her organization. He advanced swiftly, primarily because of his blood relationship to Trillot. This, he was chosen to make contact with Obi-Wan Kenobi shortly the Desert Wind attack on the Clandes Industrial power complex. The Jedi wanted to purchase a radiation suit that would allow a being to enter Clandes and disable the system, and Trillot had the only stock of them on Ord Cestus. In the wake of the destruction of the Five Families and after Trillot was executed by Asajj Ventress, Fizzik decided to take control of his relative's criminal organization for himself. (TCD)

Fizzi's Slightly Used Starships
This establishment, found in Trevi City on Trevi IV, had been owned and operated by Fiz Cor'gril for nearly three decades. (SWJ9)

Flab Tickler
This bathroom fixture was originally designed for the Hutts. It used pulsating jets of water to stimulate the fatty parts of a being's body. (TG)

Flacharia System
This was in this star system that Dean Jinzler's ship developed problems with its hyperdrive, while Jinzler was on his way to Nirauan to answer Voss Parck's message regarding the Outbound Flight Project. He was rescued when Jorj Car'das arrived to help with the repairs, an event that seemed too coincidental when added to the way in which Jinzler learned of Parck's mission. (SQ)

Flack
A swear word used by many Imperial troops. (VOF)

Flag Hangar
This was one of the largest hangars found aboard the Errant Venture. The name stemmed from the days of the Galactic Empire, when the commanding admiral of a flagship Star Destroyer would often have his own private quarters and hangar facility. This private hangar became known as the flag hangar. Because Booster Terrik considered himself the flagship admiral of the refurbished Star Destroyer, he maintained the tradition of keeping a private hangar, naming it the Flag Hangar. (LF4)

Flagesso
This man served as a Commander in the Cloud City Wing Guard, during the height of the New Order. Although outwardly loyal to Baron-Administrator Lando Calrissian, Flagesso was also in league with the minor crimelord Sawthawne. After Calrissian managed to shut down Sawthawne's operations with the help of some hired mercenaries, Flagesso tried to launch a military coup to take control of Cloud City. Calrissian's personal security force managed to chase Flagesso to the Ugnaught Surface, where he was apprehended and arrested. (GORW)

Flagn Horn
This musical instrument was often used by bards, as its unique sound complimented the spoken word. (HR)

Flail Manifesto
This document laid out the goals and priorities of the terrorist group known as The Flail. It documented the fact that The Flail believed the Senate was basically corrupt, and was being manipulated by large corporations at the expense of the common good. (SWRPG)

Flail, The
This terrorist group rose to prominence shortly before Finis Valorum was voted out of office as Supreme Chancellor. Led by Zegmon Pent, The Flail declared war on the Senate itself, believing it to be funded by major corporations and no longer acting for the common good, and caused a great deal of havoc on Coruscant in the era leading up to the Battle of Naboo. Members believed that Pent was a Jedi assassin, a belief he went to great lengths to cultivate. In order to prove his worth in the midst of accusations about his power, Chancellor Valorum set out to eliminate The Flail, and hired an independent team of security officers to search out the terrorists. In the meantime, Pent and The Flail attempted to take control of the Weather Modulation Control Center near the Chancellor's tower residence, in an effort to create an ionization storm to destroy the building. Their efforts were thwarted by the ssecurity officers hired by Valorum. (SWRPG)

Flailer
These jet-black creatures have a flat, disc-like shape. They live one the surface of Calamari's seas, floating in wait for prey to come within reach. The edge of the flailer's body was studded with razor-sharp teeth, which the flailer uses to rake its prey's flesh. The flailer then consumes the blood that flows from the prey's wounds. (DU)

Flailos
This man was one of the many gladiators who tried to win their freedom from the arenas of Rattatak, during the final years of the Old Republic. Flailos often fought with chains, whipping them around to deliver stunning blows to his opponents' heads. (CWSB)

Flair-S
see Flare-S (GMR8)

Flak
This was a small, disgusting creature. (TCD)

Flakax
An insectile race native to the planet Flax, the Flakax were a society of sexless drones dominated by a queen. A few males were also produced when the female prepared to lay her eggs, to assist in the reproductive process. The huge drones, each nearly as large as a Wookiee, did all the work required by the hive, while the males were simply slaves to the queen. Individual drones were distinguished by the unusual gas duct in their abdomens, which could be used to expel a noxious gas that caused irritation to the eyes and nasal tissues of most humanoid races. The Flakax society was highly developed around the hives in which they lived, with each of the three sexes having a defined role in its maintenance. However, they had no high technology when they were subjugated by the Empire, and were forced to work in mines to obtain metals for the Imperial war machine. During the height of the Swarm War, the Flakax government was targetted by the Colony for a military coup, and in effort to draw the Galactic Alliance into fighting smaller fires and leaving the Utegetu Nebula unguarded. This would allow the Colony to launch its full-scale attack on the Chiss, but the plans of the Colony were discovered by Han Solo and his wife, Leia Organa Solo. (GG4, DN3)

FlakBlaster Ten
This huge piece of artillery was developed in the years following the Swarm War. Instead of firing projectiles or turbolaser blasts, the FlakBlaster Ten fired searing bolts of neurodium plasma at its targets. Each charge of neurodium was delivered in a small metal cylinder, which was fired up one of the weapon's eight emitter nozzles. This metal cylinder warmed up as it was fired, which in turn added heat to the neurodium contained inside. The heat that was built up during firing was sufficient to change the neurodium gas into plasma, which was then blasted out of the emitter nozzle at the target. To prevent damage to the emitter nozzles, the FlakBlaster Ten was equipped with its own defensive shielding system. (LF9)

Flak-gun
This was a generic term that was used to describe any starship weapons system that fired shrapnel-like pieces of metal or other substance at a target, creating a cloud of pellets that could cause large amounts of physical damage. (DN3)

Flakies
This was a form of breakfast cereal that was popular in the galaxy during the early years of the New Order. It was advertised as being quite healthy and nutritious, and was marketed with the help of some of the galaxy's more prominent athletes and sports figures. (DSTR)

Flak-shell
This was a form of projectile casing that was used in certain artillery and starship launching systems, to augment the destructive capabilities of a missile. When a missile equipped with e flak-shell exploded, the shell itself did not disintegrate. Instead, it flew apart as large pieces of shrapnel, causing damage to any nearby starfighters or structures. (DN3)

Flalios
This immense man was one of the many gladiators who fought in the arenas of Rattatak during the years leading up the Clone Wars. He often fought with a pair of rope-like weapons, each with heavy balls at the end, using them as flails to pound his opponents into submission. (OWS)

Flame
This was the alias used by a wealthy businesswoman who was a native of the planet Acherin, but was forced to leave her homeworld after the Empire began nationalizing its corporations, during the months following the end of the Clone Wars. A native of the city of Sood, Flame watched as her family's assets were seized by the Empire, and their on-world bank accounts were frozen, as part of the nationalization effort.

Rather than watch her planet be overtaken, Flame decided to fight back against the Empire. He initial efforts were hampered by the fact that she was from Sood, leaving many Eluthans to ignore her pleas for unity. After she rescued Vira and a group of Eluthans from an Imperial prison, Flame gained the trust of the Eluthans. However, she also earn the notice of the Imperial forces on Acherin. Flame barely escaped from her homeworld with a minimal fortune, which she used to start the rebel unit known as Moonstrike. When she later met with Trever Flume, who was representing Ferus Olin's own band of rebels, Flame explained that she has started Moonstrike as much to strike back against the Empire for taking away her family's business as to restore her lost wealth.

After meeting with Ferus on Samaria, Flame agreed to work with him to forge a stronger resistance. Their plans were put on hold when the Roshans were falsely implicated in an assassination attempt on the life of Imperial advisor Bog Divinian. Ferus and Flame pooled their resources in an effort to ensure that Roshan ambassador Robbyn Sark and his comrades were able to escape Samaria. Flame herself accompnaied Trever Flume to ensure the escape was successful, but both were caught in the ambush that destroyed the Roshans' starship as it landed on Rosha. Luckily, both Flame and Trever were thrown well away from the exploding ship, although Sark and the Roshans were killed. Flame and Trever were then stranded on Rosha, in the midst of a Samarian invasion of the planet.

However, the ferocity of the attack on Rosha left Flame to wonder how the Empire had been able to launch their attack, when Ferus had believed that Samaria was th true target. Flame began to doubt that Ferus was actually loyal to their cause, especially when he left Samaria with Darth Vader. Rather than fret over her thoughts, however, Flame took Trever to meet with the survivors of the attack, and would have helped the Roshans if they hadn't been discovered by Imperial stormtroopers.

Rather than hiding, however, Flame and Trever purchased a starship of their own and returned to Ferus' asteroid base. In the weeks that followed, Flame began to reach out to more influential beings in the galaxy, in an attempt to give Moonstrike more legitimacy. However, her attempts to bring Senators like Bail Organa and Mon Mothma into the rebellion were rebuffed, as the Senators wished to pursue reforms via the official channels. Flame returned to Coruscant, where she was working the Thugger's Alley area, when a group of stormtroopers invaded the alley and began destroying everything they found. Flame was among the handful of beings who survived the attack, and was later reunited with Ry-Gaul and Trever Flume.

These actions continued to make many of the rebels believe that Flame was actually helping them, but investigations by Clive Flax and Astri Oddo pointed to Flame being Eve Yarrow. They investigated the Yarrow Industries bacn accounts on Niro 11, and followed a credit trail to the Yarrow estate on Revery. When they were trapped in the estate by Darth Vader's arrival, Clive and Astri found confirmation that Flame was actually working for the Empire. Their discover coincided with a similar discovery by Ferus Olin and Solace, after they learned that there was a traitor in the midst of the rebel leaders they were transporting to Ferus' asteroid base. In a strange announcement, Ferus demanded that they execute Flame, but Solace suggested leaving her on a remote moon with enough upplies to survive until another ship could pick her up. (LJ6, LJ7, LJ8, LJ9, LJ10)

Flame Battle Droid
This version of the Separatist battle droid was produced bythe Trade Federation during the Clone Wars. Denoted by the red coloration of their shoulder plating, flame battle droids wielded flame projectors with large backpack tanks holding the flammable agent. (NEGW)

Flame Beetle
Native to the planet Kashyyyk, these unusual insects could exhale fire when attacked. This defense mechanism was well-known to the Wookiees, but some still stumbled into a swarm and suffered burns. In most circumstances, flame beetles were not a problem, especially when encountered alone or in small groups. Swarms of flame beetles were generally harmless if encountered away from their hive and unmolested. However, when the flame beetles felt threatened, or if they recognized a threat to their hive or their offspring, the king beetle could either self-combust or breath his fire, setting off the entire swarm in a huge conflagration. Usually, flame beetles can be moved out of an area by creating a lot of smoke. (LTA1, MC91, TT, GMR4)

Flame Carpet Warhead
This weapon was filled with a wickedly-flammable liquid. The liquid was thick and adhesive, and was scattered across several square kilometers when the warhead explodes. A charge inside the warhead ignites the liquid, which burns anything and everything it comes in contact with. (TBH)

Flame Jewel
This was one of the many valuable gemstones found on the planet Roon, although many felt that they paled in comparison to the Roonstones. (WOTC, GORW)

Flame Night
Although many beings believed that this term was used to describe the attack on the Jedi Temple by Darth Vader and the clone troopers of the 501st Legion, at the end of the Clone Wars, the Jedi Knights who survived the execution of Order 66 were actually referring to an attack on a group of Force-sensitive beings by the Inquisitorius. Flame Night was one of the first violent attacks by the Empire's Inquisitors, during which any being who was suspected of having a connection to the Force was summarily murdered, in an attempt to prevent them from using their powers against the Empire. (CN1, CN2)

Flameout
This alcoholic cocktail could burn the tongue while it froze the throat, if properly mixed by the bartender. Han Solo liked to partake of a Flameout or two every so often, during his early career as a smuggler. The not-so-secret ingredient in a flameout was spice, which gave the drink its signature kick. (HSR, E6Y)

Flames of Eluthan
This was the name used by the Acherins to describe the brilliant sunsets that occurred in the city of Eluthan. When the atmospheric conditions were right, the setting sun bathed the stone buildings of Eluthan and its plateau with deep, orange light. From the lowlands below the plateau, the city appeared as if it were on fire, with the stones literally glowing in the orange light. (LJ2)

Flames of Umate
This quasi-religious sect sprang up on the planet Coruscant, as a group which was dedicated to preserving the pristine beauty of the Umate peak. Over time, the Flames of Umate became the de feacto security force in Monument Park, keeping visitors from chipping away bits of stone from the peak. The members of the Flames of Umate often touched the rock while meditating, hoping to commune with the "world-spirit" located in Coruscant's molten core. (CCW)

Flamesword
This was another name for a Velmorian Energy Sword. (CN2)

Flamewind of Oseon
This was the name given to the unique, annual flaring of the Oseon System's primary star. The star belched out huge, peculiar solar prominences once a year. These flares picked up excited vapors from the inner asteroids in the system, further exciting them and creating a huge, fluorescent, pulsating display of colors throughout the asteroid system. This display was a huge event for the tourist trade in the Oseon, as beings from across the galaxy traveled to the Oseon to witness the Flamewind. The cycle of the Flamewind lasted about three weeks, during which time all interasteroid travel was restricted and communications were completely blotted out. Fluorescing particles of energy and light jumped from asteroid to asteroid, bathing the entire Oseon System in a multi-colored light show. There were stories and legends of strange disappearances, apparitions, and visitations during the Flamewind. It was also theorized that the unusual solar flares that caused the Flamewind might also have played a role in the destruction of the system's original planets. During the early years of the New Order, Lando Calrissian returned to the Oseon System to play sabacc with Lob Doluff, and observed one of the Flamewind's displays while he tried to arrest Bohhuah Mutdah.

Some of the rebels did provide similar intelligence regarding an upcoming Alliance attack on the D-34 station, which Admiral Flanken used to form a plan of action. Instead of launching a pre-emptive strike, Flanken allowed the Alliance attack to happen, hoping to draw the rebel ships into an ambush. (TIEP)

Flanker
This man was one of the multitude of clone troopers who made up the Grand Army of the Republic. Flankers and his company mates, like Shiv, spend a great deal of timng training in desert environments. Flankers was killed during the Battle of Christophsis. (CWOC1)

Flankers
This world was located in a remote part of Fakir Sector, on the border between the sector and the Colonies region. Its star exploded sometime after the Battle of Yavin, destroying the entire system. The Empire abandoned its base on Flankers shortly before the explosion. (SWCP)

Flannis, Fionna
This woman was an investigative reporter with the Colonial News Net during the height of the New Order. She despised the social hierarchy developed by the Empire, and hated the upper classes. It was for this reason that she joined the Alliance, providing information she gathered from attending Imperial events to Alliance agents in the hopes that she could embarrass the Imperial elite. During the early years of the New Republic, she traveled to Reuss VIII to cover the shockboxing match between Lobar Aybock and Tull Raine. She tried to question Aybock about the possible black-market for bodily organs and tissues that was established by Torel Vorne, but was swiftly confronted a Defel thug. Luckily, Major Bren Derlin of the New Republic Intelligence agency was working with Aybock, and had the Defel removed before he could cause any harm. (CRO, OWS)

Flapdragon
This creature, native to the planet Gamorr, preferred to live in muddy swamps. (POT)

Flare
This modified Kuat Leisure 121-B pleasure craft was used by Aayla Secura and Ylenic It'kla during their mission to rescue Ratri Tane, shortly after the onset of the Clone Wars. (SWI66)

Flare
This was the name of Anniha Nega's modified Z-95 Headhunter. (CCW)

Flare Base
This Alliance outpost was established in the high mountains found on the planet Korseg IV. (RPG)

Flare-P
This was one of the fastest swoop racers produced, during the last years of the Old Republic, by Mobquet. Marketing literature claimed that the Flare-P could achieve speeds in excess of 450 kilometers per hour. (HNN5)

Flare-S
This Mobquet swoop was a hybrid of the innovations derived from racing swoops and speeder bikes. Measuring 2.5 meters in length, it was heavier than most swoops, a fact that was attributed to its reinforced S-shaped chassis. The Flare-S had forward-mounted steering vanes and longer stabilizer bars to increase handling and maneuverability. The repulsorlift engine was mounted in the center of the frame to help decrease rolling and tumbling. The Flare-S was also equipped with air intakes that force-feed turbothrusters connected to directional nozzles for additional speed and maneuverability. It can attain speeds of up to 600 kilometers per hour. (EGV, CCG9, SOT)

Flarestar
This was one of the many bars and taverns that sprung up on Yag'Dhul's space station after Rogue Squadron moved in. The Flarestar was known for its good service and dark, brooding decor. (BW)

Flarestar-class Transport
This round-bodied transport ship was distinguished by its saucer-shaped hull, which was mounted atop the engine and drive section of the ship. These ships were popular with Weequay pirate gangs, since they could be carried in a larger ship and deployed during ambushed and attacks. (CWOC1, CWTV12)

Flarestream, Margo "Pepper"
Known to her allies as "Pepper," Margo was a flight commander with the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War. She defected from the Imperial Academy early in the war, before it became "fashionable." She was capable of flying anything, from Z-95 Headhunters to X-Wings. She was given her first command during the evacuation of Refnar, ordered to protect the transports and freighters long enough for them to jumpo into hyperspace. However, when her unit was decimated in the Last Stand at Refnar, she lost more than good friends and pilots. She lost her will to fly, and requested a transfer out of Starfighter Command. She "retired" to Fabrillan, where she spent most of her time drunk while awaiting her next orders. (CRO)

Flarg
This swear word was a crude reference to excrement. (ROE, OWS)

Flarion
This was the Wookiee name for a species of bird common on Kashyyyk. They were hunted for food by the Wookiees. The flarion were easily started, and require quick reflexes to shoot. (TT)

Flash
This clone trooper was part of the unit that served under Commander Bly and Jedi General Aayla Secura, during the early years of the Clone Wars. Unfortunately, Flash was among the clone troopers who were killed after their team was forced to crash-land on Maridun. The clones were attacked by two mastif phalones, and Flash was killed before the others could react. (CWTV13)

Flash
This group of Alliance Y-Wings supported the Tela, and was stationed aboard the frigate Xerxes during the months that followed the Battle of Hoth. (TIE, TIEP)

Flash 4
Merr-Sonn's heavy blaster pistol, the Flash 4 was a knock-off of the BlasTech DL-44. Like the DL-44, the Flash 4 had a "cautionary Pulser" grip, which gave off a subtle vibration to the user's gunhadn when the power pack got low on energy. (RASB, EGW, AEG)

Flash Bomb
This was a modern version of a flash mine, used to temporarily blind any being in the immediate vicinity of the explosion. (SWGAL)

Flash Canister
This was a form of flash mine that could be thrown or carried to a specific location. Like a flash mine, the flash canister delivered a brilliant flash of light that rendered any being temporarily blind, unless they were able to cover their eyes before the device exploded. (DBPD)

Flash Capacitor
This was considered the most powerful starship weapons capacitor systems developed by SoroSuub, during the height of the New Order. (SWG2P)

Flash Colorpan
This was one most colorful pieces of costume jewelry worn during the last decades of the Old Republic. (APS)

Flash Company
One of the two divisions of the ThunderForce mercenary unit. Flash and Dazzle Companies each have eight full platoons of soldiers, and each had nearly 200 members in the unit. (HAS)

Flash Detector
This specialized starship sensor system constantly monitored the ambient light surrounding starship. When sudden changes occurred, such as an explosion or a solar flare, the flash detector sent a signal to the starship's blast-tinting system causing the portals on the ship to be darkened. This prevented the ship's passengers and crew from being blinded by the flash of light. When light conditions returned to a preset normal state, the flash detector signaled the blast-tinting to restore a portal's transparency. (LF3)

Flash Fire
This Dreadnaught-class heavy cruiser was part of Warlord Zsinj's third fleet, during the early years of the New Republic. The Flash Fire was destroyed at the Battle of Selaggis. (SOC)

Flash Goggles
A form of eye protection which continually and immediately adjusts for incoming light. They were often used near blast sights, to help protect the eyes of the viewers. Similar to tranparisteel, the lenses in flash goggles darken when the incoming light brightens. Flash gogles also share transparisteel's tendency to cloud up completely following an intense flare, but flash goggles often burn out completely following these flares, rendering them useless. (AC)

Flash Heater
This small device was carried in tool chests and survival kits, and could be used to start a fire in an emergency. (JB)

Flash Mine
This ancient form of mine used a large power source to produce a blinding flash of light and sound when activated, stunning a victim into immobility. (KOTOR2)

Flash Paste
Developed by the Empire during the height of the New Republic, flash paste was similar in some respects to D-Tape. It could be placed on windows and doors, easily conforming to a wide range of shapes and filling cracks. However, when ignited, flash paste simply burned with an intense heat, melting most metals rather than exploding. This allowed soldiers to gain access to sealed areas without alerting enemies to their presence. (FB)

Flash Pistol
This primitive weapon was the favored sidearm on the planet Sevarcos. It used gunpowder to project a bullet at its target. (SWJ12)

Flash Rifle
A large weapon used on Sevarcos, the flash rifle was a bigger version of the flash pistol. It used primitive gunpowder to project a small bullet at its target. (SWJ12)

Flash Speeder
This was one of two primary repulsor-equipped speeders produced by the engineers of the royal forces of Naboo. The Flash speeder was first put to use on Naboo some thirty years before the Trade Federation invaded the planet, but continued to be of service during the Battle of Naboo. The 4.5-meter-long Flash speeder had essentially a modified SoroSuub Seraph speeder, with two outboard repulsor engines and room for a pilot and a passenger. The Flash was a military design, with a turret-mounted laser cannon mounted between the engines at the rear of the speeder. It had room for a pilot and up to three passengers, and could attain speeds of 200 kilometers per hour. (E1N, YJC1, X1, IG1, SON, NEGV, SWGAL)

Flash Teaching
This was a technique for implanting personalities and technical training on clones without having to carry out formal training and education. Flash teaching, sometimes called flash training, involved imprinting specific memories and knowledge directly into the brain cells of a clone, in an attempt to create a clone that could be used almost immediately. While this allowed cloners to produced large numbers of clones in a short period of time, flash-trained clones lacked the real-world experience and ability of clones who were trained using more traditional methods. (TLC, RC66)

Flash Training
This was another term for the flash teaching of cloned beings. (RC66)

Flash-B.3
This entry-level starship booster system was produced by Cygnus SpaceWorks, during the early years of the New Order. (SWG2P)

Flashbang
This was a simple explosive that was first used by the clone commandos of the Grand Army of the Republic, during the height of the Clone Wars. Flashbangs were little more than bright lights and loud noises, meant to startle or stun an opponent into inaction, allowing the commando to capture or eliminate the opponent as necessary. In the decades following the Clone Wars, flashbangs became popular among riot police and SWAT teams, since they could be used to stun potentially dangerous individuals and prevent them from causing any harm. (SWI81, LF2)

Flashblade
This was one of the many clans of the Nosaurian race, which was native to the planet New Plympto. (CCW)

Flashboost 4
This mid-level starship booster system was produced by Cygnus SpaceWorks, during the early years of the New Order. (SWG2P)

Flashburn
A term used by Jedi Masters to describe the way in which certain Jedi and Force-sensitive individuals will close off areas of their minds in reaction to a large, emotional trauma. The result was that the individual had sections of their memory seeming cease to exist, and they can't remember details about the thing at the center of the trauma. Corran Horn was flashburned when he believed his Mirax was lost, shortly after the death of Emperor Palpatine's clone. (IJ)

Flash-flame
This was a Basic term used to describe any bright, hot-burning explosion that was strong enough to cause intense damage to living flesh. (LLOW)

Flash-gun
This was an outdated form of blaster weapon which was used by pirates during the last decades of the Old Republic. (NEGC)

Flashheel, Xant
This quick-tmepered, clanless Nosaurian lived in the Drifter's District of Phemiss, on his homeworld of New Plympto, during the last decades of the Old Republic. Xant often made a few credits serving as a swoopshaw driver, but claimed to anyone who would listen that he was a capable guide, claiming he could lead adventurers deep into the hiakk forests on safaris. (CCW)

Flashpacket
This was a generic term used to describe any small, low-powered explosive charge that could be used to destroy the contents of a package or container. Safes and trunks could be fitted with special clasps that could only be opened by a specific individual. If these clasps, which usually scanned a being's thumbprint or voice, were forced open, a tiny charge would activate the flashpacket. The flashpacket burst into flame, destroying whatever was inside the container. (EGF)

Flashpoint
This arid, desert-covered planet was located in the Outer Rim Territories. Orbiting its primary star at a very close distance, Flashpoint was constantly bombarded by solar energy and intense radiation. This situation, when coupled with the fact that the planet rotated once every standard hour, gave the planet its name. Any life that might have existed on the planet had long since been burned away, leaving behind a vast desert that was alternately bathed in blinding light and plunged into darknesss.

Some 4,000 years before the Galactic Civil War, the Old Republic established a research facility on the planet, hoping to learn more about the life and death of stars and other solar phenomena. The facility, known as Flashpoint Station, was protected by a magnetic shield that repelled the deadly energy from the planet's star.

In the wake of the Great Sith War, the research facility was overrun by the Mandalorians, who turned the facility into a prison where Jedi captives were taken during the Mandalorian Wars. The noted biologist Demagol oversaw the facility, which was refitted for his research into the ability of the Jedi Knights to use the Force. (KOR2)

Flashpoint Station
This deep-space research facility was established in the Outer Rim Territories, during the era of the Great Sith, and was dedicated to the study of the nearby stars and stellar phenomena. It was located on a parched, arid world known simply as Flashpoint, since it was constantly bombarded by solar energy and radiation from its nearby star. The planet rotated so fast that each "day" lasted just a standard hour. This combination forced researchers to erect magnectic shields to protect the buildings of Flashpoint Station.

During the Mandalorian Wars, Flashpoint was captured by the Mandalorians, forcing the Old Republic to dispatch military forces to free the researchers and repel the Mandalorians.

The Mandalorians modified the research facility under the direction of the biologist known as Demagol, who hoped to discovery what gave members of the Jedi Order and the Sith the ability to use the Force. However, their use of the station was cut short when Rohlan Dyre infiltrated the facility with Zayne Carrick and his companions, in an effort to rescue Jarael.

Zayne posed as Dyre's captive, and the duo managed to get Demagol alone. They rendered the biologist onconscious, and Zayne donned his armor. Then, they made their way to the main landing area, where their ship, the Last Resort, was being guarded. Aboard the vessel, Marn Hierogryph posed as an Old Republic Admiral and claimed to have located Flashpoint. While Zayne silently set off a series of mines, "Admiral" Hierogryph began firing the weapons of his "cruiser", the Glomkettle. The entire ruse fooled the Mandalorians, who only saw the destruction being wrought on the station's facilities and scattered into space.

After freeing Jarael and the other Jedi captives, they left the station behind, and set off a series of charges that brought the entire facility down on itself. (KOR1, KOR2)

Flashship
Built by the Korlier Combine, these fast starfighters were among the rarest of ships in the galaxy. Like all other Korlier designs, the Flashships have no serial numbers, which makes them hard to identify and trace. (VOF)

Flashstick
This small, metal baton was used by the Drall police as a defensive weapon. At the end of the baton was a crystal, and hidden inside the shaft was a surprisingly strong power source. When the flashstick touched an individual, it triggered the power source to delivere a blinding flash of light, augmented by the many facets of the crystal at the end. The burst of light blinded an attacker for several hours. (CCW)

Flashtail
This term became popular during the early years of the New Republic. It was used to describe any hasty and swift departure for a remote destination, as in "We'd better flashtail it out of here, or we'll never make it." (SQ)

Flask, Erisson
An Alliance soldier who spent time on the Kwenn space station. (RC)

Flass
This young man worked as the son of a farmer on the planet Ceriun, some 1,000 years before the Battle of Endor. He was also one of Tenno's close friends. When Tenno suggested that they take the Jedi holocron found by Ka'arn and keep it safe until a Jedi could travel to Ceriun to recover it, Flass was among the group that agreed to help him. They also hoped that, maybe, a Sith might come looking for it, and take them all as apprentices. 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 Flass and the others as Tenno's "reward". (T17)

Flat
This was a generic term used to describe any form of artwork that was created on a flat surface. This included many drawings and paintings, as well as other forms of presentation. Because these types of art did not have intricate curves or angles, they could be easily marked and tracked by owners and dealers alike. Using special ultraviolet ink, a listing of the flat's history was maintained on the reverse side of the artwork, detailing all the owners, dealers, and brokers who had controlled the flat throughout its life. In this way, the original artwork could be easily identified from cheap reproductions or forgeries. (OF, A)

Flat Liner
Erlick Frodor's YT-1300 freighter, he used it to help the Alliance in the Demophon System. When Frodor became the commander of the Orflon Base, the Flat Liner was turned over to the Alliance for use as an evacuation ship. It was later renamed the One Liner. (SN)

Flatbody
This was the Basic translation of the term used by the Lurmen who settled on the planet Maridun to describe a member of the Amanin species. (CWOC1)

Flatbread
This Alderaanian foodstuff was a tasty, crusty, cracker-like bread. (TPS)

Flatcake
This unleavened bread was often served to children, to help them get enough carbohydrates and fiber in their diet. (A)

Flatcam
Similar to a flatscreen, the flatcam was a two-dimensional recording and display system which was used in the age before holocams were invented. (SOA)

Flat-head
This was a somewhat derogatory term used to describe a member of the Amanin race. (CN2)

Flats, Burro
This being worked as an anthropologist for the Baobab Archives, many years before the onset of the Galactic Civil War. His work with the ancient Gung Slabs provided the first translation of the Gungan language, and resulted in the first true dictionary of Gungan words. Flats was also generally credited with discovering a way to create an osmotic membrance that worked like the self-sealing bubbles that Gungans used to create their underwater cities. He managed to reverse-engineer the technology and developed the Rolling Moisture Cell, which allowed beings to carry water in even the most arid of environmens. (GPB)

Flats, Slag
This ancient, female Ithorian was one of the original settlers of the planet Tatooine. She was exiled from Tatooine for being a known criminal, and was the ringleader for a sizable organization. After landing on Tatooine, she established a minor crime ring in Mos Eisley. She lived near Tower Ridge, and once helped Adar Tallon when he first arrived on Tatooine. Momaw Nadon fell in love with Slag during his stay on the desert planet, which helped him overcome his own homesickness. Slag was later murdered by Jodo Kast, who was trying to capture Tallon and recover the bounty on his head. (GG7, TM)

Flatscreen

Flavian, Cort
This Corporate Sector Authority Security Policeman was working for Jor Nieler some years after the Battle of Endor. Easily distinguished by his bright red hair, Cort was working undercover with Nieler at Rordan's Spaceship Parts and More in the starport city of Verena. His position was doubly dangerous, for Cort was also an undercover Imperial Intelligence agent at the time. (TSK)

Flavin Hold
This region of the planet Vindalia was the ancestral home of Baron Vlacan Umber and his family. (CN2)

Flax
Located in the Ptera System of the Sumitra Sector, this planet was the homeworld of the Flakax race of insectoids. Flax was tectonically active, and its surface was covered alternately by oceans, incredibly-tall mountain ranges, and deserts. The Flakax lived in underground hives. During the era of the New Order, Flax was overrun by the Empire, and the Flakax were enslaved and forced to mine ores from the planet's crust. (GG4, REB)

Flax, Clive
This lowlife musician and industrial spy was one of the many acquaintences made by Ferus Olin, after Olin left the Jedi Order. Flax used his skills as a musician to perform at various bars and clubs, using his music to cover for his information gathering missions. He then sold information to his employer or the highest bidder. Ferus had employed Clive during a job on the planet Jabor, during the Clone Wars, and in return had provided Clive was a false set of identification credentials. Clive had then been exposed on a mission, and when his true identify was revealed, he was incarcerated at the Dontamo Prison facility. It was there that he suddenly found himself killing the hulking Prisoner 67 with a datacard, in an effort to save Ferus' life. Flax continued to work with Ferus to undermine the efforts of the Empire, and trailed the former Jedi when he was sent to Samaria. After assisting getting Astri Oddo off Samaria, Clive returned to Ferus' secret asteroid base, to help Raina and Toma maintain the facility for any surviving Jedi. The time spent on the asteroid made Clive anxious, and when Trever Flume and the woman known as Flame arrived with a starship, he jumped at the chance to take on a mission. Clive agreed to accompany Solace, Astri Oddo, and Lune Oddo Divinian on a trip back to Coruscant, where they hoped to meet up with Dexter Jettster in an effort to find a better place to hide.

Like many of the others, Clive agreed to travel to Bellassa and assist the efforts of the rebels there. It was on Bellassa that Clive was introduced to the freedom fighter known as Flame. Despite her efforts to help the Bellassans, Clive had a strange and uneasy feeling that he had seen Flame somewhere before. He traveled to Flame's homeworld of Acherin to try and learn more about her, but his investigation turned up very little new information. He enlisted the help of Astri Oddo in helping him dig into the Empire's computer records to see if they could locate any more data. After learning that Yarrow Industries had moved its headquarters to Niro 11, he and Astri posed as husband and wife to infiltrate the Bank Niro Eleven facility to learn more about Flame. Their investigation on Niro 11 led them to the Yarrow estate on Revery, where they were forced to hide in a panic room when Darth Vader himself arrived. Vader's presence only served to prove that Eve Yarrow was allied with the Empire, and placed the security of their underground friends in jeopardy. After escaping from the Yarrow estate, they set a course for Coruscant, and it was on the trip that Clive and Astri both realized that they were starting to enjoy each other's company. Clive finally understood that he had something to fight for in the galaxy, when he realized that Astri meant more to him than anything else.

Their journey to Coruscant was interrupted on Dexus-12, where they stopped for refueling and Imperial forces nearly intercepted them. Clive and Astri were forced to sneak aboard Inquisitor Hydra's personal starship in order to escape. After the learned that most of Moonstrike had been eliminated by Darth Vader, they feared the worst had happened to Lune. Thus, they were pleased to learn that he had been rescued by Ferus Olin. Clive and Astri agreed to raise Lune together, and also took in Trever Flume, after the young man's memories had been erased so that he could live out the rest of his life in safety. Little was known about the new family's history during the early years of the New Order, although it was generally believed that they were eventually discovered by Imperial forces. The entire family was believed to have been killed in an Imperial attack on their safe house, although Lune managed to escape. (LJ4, LJ5, LJ6, LJ7, LJ8, LJ9, LJ10, RF4)

Flax'Supt'ai
This female, albino Duinuogwuin had been living on the planet Iego for thousands of years, having settled on the planet during the time of the Cronese Sweeps. She lost count of how long she had been living on Iego, but she had gone blind over the millennia. She made her home just north of the Boneyard, but few beings ever learned why she chose to remain on the planet. (GORW)

Flayss
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 "fate of death by slow torture". (GCG)

Flechette Launcher
A shoulder-mounted weapon that launches a cannister filled with small darts. The cannister explodes a short distance from its target, releasing a hail of darts. (HSR, CSA, KO)

Flechette Missile
A projectile, just over 11 centimeters in length, that was built as an anti-personnel weapon or an armor-piercing anti-vehicle weapon. (GFT)

Flechette Torpedo
This weapon was developed by the Alliance military for use in its starfighter squadrons. The flechette torpedo had been designed as a way to counteract the maneuverability and speed of the TIE Defender, which had become the bane of X-Wing pilots across the galaxy. The TIE Defender, despite its many advancements over the TIE Fighter, was not equipped with a particle shield, which allowed Alliance weapons designers that opportunity to create a missile that could penetrate the Defender's hull. These designers took a standard proton torpedo shell and filled it with durasteel flechettes. At the core of the weapon was the explosive charge, which flung the durasteel shards outward when detonated, creating a screen of vicious shrapnel that essentially shredded the TIE Defender's wings and hull. Most flechette torpedoes were equipped with proximity fuses, allowing an X-Wing pilot to simply fire the weapon into the path of a TIE Defender, and the torpedo would explode when the TIE Defender got close enough. The primary drawback of the flechette torpedo was that it was an indiscriminate weapon, and the shrapnel that it expelled could just as easily destroy an X-Wing or any other friendly fighter. During the months that followed the Battle of Endor and the rise of Lord Shadowspawn, Wedge Antilles had miniature transponders added to the flechette shards, in order to try and learn more about Shadowspawn's forces. (LSSM)

Fleck
This was one of Gamgalon's henchmen on Varonat. He was the Krish's chief come-up flector. (TFE)

Fleeg
This nuisance parasite was native to the planet Askaj, and living by burrowing into the fur or hair of many mammals. (TG)

Fleek Eel
This species of snake-like, aquatic creature was native to the planet Falleen. They inhabited the Hocekureem Sea, and were considered a delicacy by many chefs throughout the galaxy. Fleek eels were often served cooked in pepper oil or zaffa oil, although a few races preferred to eat them while they were still alive. The appearance of a fleek eel was quite bizarre, with the main body being quite thick, and surrounded by a collection of appendages. When cooked, sections of fleek eel were served in thick, disc-like slabs that could be eaten by hand. (SE, SESB, KOR1, KOR4)

Fleekskin
This was a tough, durable form of leather that was created from the skin of a fleek eel. (CN1)

Fleet

Fleetabeesta
This was a species of swift-moving creature that was known for its ability to escape from predators. Fleetabeestas had several tails, which whipped out behind them when they ran. (DSTR)

Fleetwing
This Ikas-Adno utility landspeeder was similar in many respects to the Ubrikkian Industries 9000 Z004 speeder. Ubrikkian even sued Ikas-Adno for stealing the design. However, the only thing that was similar on the two vehicles was their appearance. The Fleetwing was notorious for its rough ride, lacking the sophisticated counter-balancing system of the Z004. It measured four meters in length, and could carry a pilot, four passengers, and sixty kilograms of cargo. It could achieve a maximum flight ceiling of 1.5 meters, and could attain speeds of 200 kilometers per hour. (GSE)

Fleffant, Jarg
This man served as a Corporal in the Office of Peace and Security in Gadrin, on the planet Cularin, during the early stages of the Clone Wars. It was Corporal Fleffant who discovered the decrypted message posted to the HoloNet by the slicer known as Tiny F, a message that apparently came from Jir Tramsig and called for the complete suppression of resistance throughout the Cularin System. Despite his quick recognition of the message's importance, Corporal Fleffant caught a great deal of online flack for his name, especially from the slicer known as Alyssaroxu. (LFCW)

Fleft-wauf
This species of carnivorous, flying creature was native to the planet Taloraan, where they preyed upon the huge sleft-chuffni. The average fleft-wauf was a large creature that had a barbed tail and clawed feet, which they used to rip open the sleft-chuffni's gasbag. The Wind Raiders used fleft-wauf as mounts, preferring to remain true to their heritage. The Wind Raiders were known to attack their cousins, the Denfraadi, by riding their fleft-waufs through the herds of Sleft-chuffni that carried the Denfrandi gondolas. (SWJ5, CWWRT)

Fleik
A creature whose liver was often creamed to make pate'. (TME)

Flejj Beast
This predator was native to the planet Lannik. (ETM)

Flek
According to a story that circulated on the HoloNet following the Battle of Endor, Flek was a droid who was once owned by Lando Calrissian. Together, they perpetrated all manner of scams to swindle credits from unsuspecting beings. The story paralleled Lando's experienced with Vuffi Raa, and many felt that it portrayed Lando in an unflattering light. Among the stories was a con in which Lando portrayed a Ronin Jedi Knight in order to obtain a set of statuettes from a timid race of beings known as the Meeks. The statuettes turned out to be forgeries, although Lando had been forced to eliminate a marauding rancor to obtain them. Flek wanted to return and pay the Meeks a measure of revenge, but Lando refused, claiming that their ingenuity in getting him to chase off the rancor was to be commended. This ending to the story served to redeem Lando's image, as he accepted the outcome and left the Meeks alone. (T20)

Flennic, Kurlen
This Imperial Moff controlled the planet Yaga Minor, as part of the Imperial Remnant, following the peace accord made with the New Republic. He was a member of the old school Imperial doctrine, and believed that the Republic should be left alone when the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy. His beliefs were mirrored by many of the Moffs, despite the warnings of Grand Admiral Pellaeon. Pellaeon's fears were realized when the Yuuzhan Vong, smarting from their losses at the Battle of Ebaq, decided to eliminate any marginal threats before re-engaging the Republic. The Imperial Remnant, confident in their defenses, were unprepared for the Yuuzhan Vong attack. Bastion and Muunilinst were destroyed in short order, and Flennic and the Moff Council were forced to flee their holdings. When it believed that Grand Admiral Gilad Pellaeon had perished at Bastion, Flennic took his own small fleet and tried to assume control of the Empire. His attempt was short-lived, however, when Pellaeon arrived at Yaga Minor quite alive. Both Pellaeon and Jacen Solo began to negotiate with Flennic and the Moffs, hoping to convince them that joining the Galactic Alliance was the only true way for the Empire to survive the Yuuzhan Vong. After the Battle of Borosk proved that the Galactic Alliance was sincere in its attempts to bring the Imperial Remnant into its fold, Flennic and many other Moffs refused to believe that the former "rebel scum" were the Empire's best chance for survival. When Pellaeon explained that the "rebel scum" had defeated the Empire at Endor, Flennic decided that he had had enough. He pulled a blaster and threatened to shoot Pellaeon, but his shot went wide. Flennic was immediately surrounded by stormtroopers, but Pellaeon decide not to punish Flennic. Instead, Pellaeon refused to eliminate a good leader, and Flennic agreed to accept the Galactic Alliance's offer. (DTR, FH1)

This man was employed as an architect by Jabba the Hutt, and designed extensive renovations to Jabba's Palace on Tatooine. Note that The Movie Trilogy Sourcebook and the Essential Guide to Characters both indicate that Derren Flet built Jabba's palace, although many other sources indicate that the B'omarr Monks built the palace long before Jabba took control of it. He also provided details on the design of the sail barge Khetanna.

This material was developed during the last decades of the Old Republic for use in lightweight facial shrouds for extravehicular activity. Flexicris shrouds were often paired with specialized thinskin emergency suits for use aboard starships, in the unlikely event that a ship experienced a hull breach. Although these suits were not designed for longterm exposure to vacuum, they were more than adequate for allowing a being to move from a damaged ship to a rescue vessel. (MBS)

Flexiglass

Flier
This was a military term used to describe any weapons shot that missed its target. (OF)

Flier
This was the generic term used to describe any repulsor-equipped, atmospheric craft that were designed and developed for military or police use.

Millennia later, updated versions of these fliers were used by the police force on the planet Bonadan, during the early decades of the New Republic. (EOV, GMR8, DBPD)

Fliggerian Firebeast
This creature was named for its unusual digestive system, which used a form of combustion to break down its food. (BHSW)

Fligh
This humanoid was a known infochant who worked on the planet Coruscant some twelve years prior to the Battle of Naboo. He was also a good friend of Didi Oddo, and spent a good deal of time working the halls of the Galactic Senate. A spindly man with large ears and a long face, Fligh had a green, prosthetic eye which replaced one he lost in a fight with a Hutt crimelord. Fligh was asked by Astri to find out about a dinner party which was being planned by Jenna Zan Arbor. He trailed her to the Senate Chamber, where Arbor was meeting with her friend, Senator Uta S'orn. This fit into Fligh's plans, since he had been hired by Helb and the Tech Radiers to acquire the datapad of Senator S'orn. Fligh simply stole both datapads at one time, figuring he could use Zan Arbor's datapad to get names for Astri. Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, trying to help Didi located Fligh, discovered that Fligh owed a large sum of credits to the Tech Raiders, shortly before Fligh was found murdered on the Lane of All Worlds. Qui-Gon discovered that Fligh's prosthetic eye had been dislodged during the struggle, and Fligh's body was also drained completely of blood in a similar fashion to six or so other lowlifes during the preceding year. Senator S'orn's datapad was later acquired by the Tech Raiders, but Jenna Zan Arbor's pad remained missing. In a surprising turn of events, Fligh was discovered to be alive by Gui-Gon and Obi-Wan on Belasco, trying to catch up with Astri Oddo. He claimed to have faked his death, choosing to mimic the death of Ren S'orn in order to go underground and avoid being killed as a "loose end" by Jenna Zan Arbor. He later admitted that he had kept Zan Arbor's datapad after tracing the murdered lowlifes to her labs on Simpla-12. Once Zan Arbor was captured, Fligh turned to a more legitimate lifestyle after realizing that Didi had almost given his own life to save Fligh. In return, Fligh set out to help Didi and Astri renovate Didi's Café and restore its business. When Did retired, Fligh set out to see the galaxy. Six years after the Battle of Naboo, he found himself on Euceron, placing illegal bets on the Galactic Games. He had been surprised to learn that Aarno Dering had been hired to be the official timekeeper for several events, and agreed to work with Dering to place bets on those events which were to be rigged. Dering's death, and the appearance of Obi-Wan Kenobi, led Fligh to abandon any hope of hitting it big, and after helping the Jedi he fled back to Courscant. (DH, TDR, JQ3)

Flight Badge
This was the military insignia that was awarded to those Alliance starfighter pilot trainees who were able to pass the tests that were part of the Pilot's Proving Ground. The Flight Badge indicated that a being was capable to handling a starfighter in a combat situation, although it did not mean that they were combat-proven. (XWP)

Although most fliis were wild, the Kubaz managed to keep small swarms of them for food, clipping their wings so that the fliis couldn't fly away. (MIS6)

Flik-tweezer
This was a Gungan tool, used to tighten fittings. (GMR4)

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

Flim, Karrek
This small-time criminal was living on Vreni Island, on the planet Corellia, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (SWG2P)

Flimmel Tree
Native to the planet Xagobah, this unusual tree resembled a cross between a mushroom and a spider. In fact, the flimmel was more of a fungus than a tree. Individual specimens were actually part of a much larger colony of trees that shared a common root system, and the entire plant lived to be many millennia in age. The flimmel was a carnivorous plant, and could open its fleshy trunk into a mouth-like orifice that extended outward to grasp onto its prey. The folds of the mouth then drew the prey into the mouth, where it was slowly digested. The canopy of the flimmel tree could also be retracted at will, especially when attacked or injured. (BF5)

Flimsi
see Flimsiplast (DBPD)

Flimsiboard
This was a thicker, stronger form of flimsiplast that could be used in a variety ways, from making boxes to serving as the base for a display. (FJ2)

Flimsiplasbag
This was a form of resealable bag that was formed from flimsiplast material. (CWNOP)

Flimsiplast
This material was formed into sheets of thin, plastic-like material that could be used for writing. Originally created several millennia before the Galactic Civil War, flimsiplast could be impregnated with chemicals that allowed the writing to remain hidden until it contacted a being's specific chemical makeup. It could also be set to burn up after the message had been activated, thereby ensuring the message was read and then destroyed. In general, however, flimsiplast - usually referred to as simply flimsi - was used to write notes and letters. (COJ, SLS, DBPD)

Flimsi-tube
This was a durable tube that was created from flimsiplast, and could be used to protect documents without folding them during transport. (FJ3)

Flint
This young man was a native of the planet Belderone, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. He father was a Jedi Knight who had been killed by General Grievous during the Clone Wars, and Flint believed that it was his duty follow in his father's footsteps and protect Belderone. This often meant that Flint was late for work, and more trouble than he was worth. When Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa arrived on Belderone to investigate the Imperial laboratory there, Flint approached Luke to learn more about the Jedi. Flint and his friend, Barney, later volunteered to help them with their efforts to liberate Kulthis and Belderone. However, when Flint was too late to save his mother from the Imperial attack on their village, he cursed the fact that he couldn't use the Force to help her. Darth Vader, on Belderone to oversee the subjugation of the populace, preyed on Flint's anguish and lured him to join the Empire as a stormtrooper. He was later trained in the use of the Dark Side by Darth Vader. Flint became known as the Dark Lord of Belderone, and was placed in charge of the invasion force which subjugated Naldar. After the Battle of Endor, Flint mourned the death of Darth Vader by traveling to Vjun to see Bast Castle for himself. On Vjun, he met the Dark Lady known as Lumiya, and after a brief battle of strength, he submitted himself as her apprentice. After being ordered to subjugate the Phelleem Sector, Luke Skywalker was able to control Flint and stop him from reviving the Sith magic. His old friend Barney, now a member of the Alliance, then convinced Flint that the Empire killed his mother and took away his life. Flint renounced his allegiance to Darth Vader, and ended the fighting on Naldar. Shortly afterward, Flint convinced his homeworld of Belderone to accept the Firrerreo people - refugees from a homeworld destroyed by the Empire - as neighbors. Years later, Flint's lifeless body was found on Belderone. His corpse was holding a lightsaber, and there was a hole burned through his neck, as if he had died in lightsaber combat. Many believed that Lumiya had finally tracked him down and murdered him, as punishment for Flint's inability to kill Luke Skywalker in the Phelleem Sector. (LTA1, MCA3, EGC, EGA, MC92, OWS)

Flint, Finegan
This tall, thin man was the founder of the Knights swoop gang on Stend IV. He had a bookish appearance, belying his role as the leader of a swoop gang. (GG9)

Flint, Lucius
Flint was a Captain in the police force that patrolled the city of D'larah.

He maintained his belief in the law, however, but would turn a blind eye from minor infractions. (SN)

Flint, Manon
This man served as the planetary govnernor of Oon Tien, working for Imperial Moff Kentor Sarne during the early years of the New Order. (DARK)

Flip
This young Vorzydiak was one of the original members of the Freelies, along with Grath, more than ten years before the Battle of Naboo. Flip was eager to receive Grath's approval, and struggled to impress his friend. When Flip met Tray, she convinced the young Vorzydiak to alter the Freelies' sabotage plans, making them more violent and destructive. Flip believed Tray when she told him that such actions would be perceived as Flip's initiatives, thereby gaining respect in Grath's eyes. Unfortunately, Flip worked too hard to impress Grath, and could not understand when Grath continued to maintain his belief in non-violent protest. Flip went out on his own, and arranged for the bombing of the Multycorp headquarters to occur during the early morning, instead of the middle of the night. However, Flip inadvertently set off the detonators early, and was captured in the blast. He was freed from the rubble, but died shortly afterward. In the aftermath of his death, Grath and his father, Chairman Port, agreed to work toward a peaceful resolution to the Freelies' demands. (TTW)

This modest casino was owned by Avaro Sookcool, and was located in Equator City on Rodia. (SESB)

Flipping
This was a mild Corellian expletive. (LSSM)

Flirt
This small, box-like B2-X automaton was modified for use by the Wookiee Chenlambec and his apprentice, Tinian I'att. Female in personality, Flirt was designed to look like one of the quarrels in Chen's bandolier. Flirt was programmed to talk to a computer installment and insiunate herself into its programming. She was a talkative creation, and loved challenges. This trait allowed her to work hard to infiltrate the computer system of the Hound's Tooth when Chenlambec and Tinian attempted to trap Bossk. Flirt was able to gain control of several security systems, allowing Chen to scout the ship's defenses. Flirt later gained control of the Hound's Tooth itself, after electronically 'sweet-talking' it. This allowed Chen and Tinian to overcome Bossk's built-in defenses and trap him near Lomabu III. After they took control of the Hound's Tooth, Chen mounted Flirt onto a power-point on the X10-D service droid, giving her a huge, strong body and full-time access to the Hound's Tooth's computer system. (TBH, EGD)

Flit
This poisonuos, flying reptile was native to the jungles of the planet Despayre. Flits were primarily nocturnal creatures, and moved about with incredible speed and maneuverability. In the dark, they were almost impossible to detect and avoid. As a defensive mechanism, flits had developed a line of poisonous barbs along their backs. Any creature that tried to eat a flit, or any creature that was unlucky enough to run into one, was stuck with a barb, which injected the poison into the creature's system. This poison was quite potent, and could kill a large human in just a short time. (DSTR)

Flit
This was the term used to describe several species of reptavian predators that were native to the planet Lok. (GQRG)

Flitknot Speeder
This Geonosian speederbike was developed for use in tracking acklays and other wild beasts across the surface of Geonosis. For this reason, the two-meter-long Flitknot was unarmed, with all available power going to propulsion. Later, a strike version was developed, with a blaster cannon added for firepower. Count Dooku used a Flitknot speeder to escape from the forces of the Grand Army of the Republic during the Battle of Geonsis. He continued to use the speeder throughout the conflicts of the Clone Wars. (GORW, CWVG)

Flitnat
This was a species of tiny, harmless insects. Many subspecies of flitnat delivered a mildly painful bite, and any being caught in a swarm of these insects suffered from continually being bitten. During their invasion of the galaxy, the Yuuzhan Vong modified the basic flitnat to carry a mild disease that caused the victim to experience intense nausea. (SBS, UF)

Flitter
The codename of one of the Alliance's safe worlds, Flitter was located in the Tierfon System. The planet's location was revealed when an Imperial starship captured an Alliance transport on its way to the planet. The Imperial fleet destroyed many of the planet's cities and poisoned much of its ecology, killing ninety-five percent of the population and leaving the rest to die. (RASB)

Flitter
This was another name for a small, one- or two-person airspeeder (HSE)

Flitter Cab
This small airspeeder was produced by Hraki Adventure Motors for use as an automated rental vehicle. Measuring about 1.5 meters in length, the average flitter cab could accommodate a single passenger, and moved from location to location along a pre-programmed set of routes. This allowed flitter cabs to be "unmanned," and equipped with a computer that had just enough processing power to maneuver its way around a city. (GORW)

Flitter Suit
This form of protective clothing was essentially a vacuum suit with a small jet pack attached. These suits offered slightly better hard-vacuum protection than a standard vacuum suit, as well as the ability to make small movements with the jet pack. Because they were designed for light duty, the jet pack of a flitter suit was capable of a single thrust before requiring a recharge. (PSG)

Flitterfly
A this small insect flew on gossamer wings, giving it a jerky motion when moving in a breeze. (BP)

Flivian
An alien race, the Flivians were desert-dwelling quadripeds with equine features. They were equally adept at moving about on all-fours or walking on their hind legs, which left their front paws free to use as hands. (SWJ11)

Flo
This aging, WA-7 service droid was employed by Dexter Jettster as a waitress at Dex's Diner, on the planet Coruscant, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. The nickname "Flo" stemmed from the droid's designation, which was printed in Aurebesh on her chestplate. Programmed with an efficient, if not abrasive, female personality, Flo spent much of her time trying to prove that she was a better waitress than Hermione Bagwa. In her spare time, Flo was often found flirting with the dishwashing machine. In the wake of the Clone Wars, Flo was separated from Dexter when the chef was forced to join the ranks of the Erased. She maintained a vigilant watch over the newsfeeds for any information on Dexter, and soon discovered that the Erased had been nearly destroyed. Flo vowed to help them in any way possible, and found her chance when she discovered Keets Freely and Curran Caladian in the holding cell of the Senate Rotunda. Posing as a cook droid, Flo helped them escape. In return, she asked them to let Dexter know she was OK. (VD2, SWDB, CCW, LJ5, NEGD)

Floater
This was the name given to any of the various species of creatures which inhabited the upper cloud layers of the planet Yavin. Of the twelve known species of Floaters, two were predatory and fed on the other ten species. One of the predatory species resembled a large, floating jellyfish or squid, while the other - known as a hunter-floater - was sharklike in its form. Herbivorous floaters resembled huge jellyfish, and strained microscopic plantlife from the atmosphere with the stunted tentacles ringing the underside of their bodies. All species ranged in size from 30 to 1,500 meters in length, and were confined to living in a certain layer of Yavin's atmosphere. If removed from their natural habitat layers, floaters literally exploded, as their bodies were unable to adjust to lower pressures. (GG2, PH)

Floater
Related in many respects to avians of the same name found in the atmosphere of the planet Yavin, the floaters of the planet Bespin were small, winged creatures that "swam" in the plankton-rich layer of the Life Zone. They bred almost continuously, and cloud car pilots had to constantly clear their windshields of floater roe which was deposited in the atmosphere. (WSW)

Another name for a landspeeder. (E4N)

Floater Car
This was a generic term used to describe any repulsorlift land vehicle. (JS)

One of only two predatory species found in the clouds of the planet Yavin, the floater shark rides the winds in search of food. (GG2)

Floater Squid
One of only two predatory species found in the clouds of the planet Yavin, the floater shark rides the winds in search of food. (GG2)

Floater Suit
This was the generic term used to describe any bouyant clothing that was worn by bathers at spas and resorts. The floater suit kept an individual drifting on the surface of a pool of water, which was gently rippled and stirred up by small pumps. The water could be simple water, or it could have aromatics or restoratives added to give additional rejuvenative qualities. The chamber in which the individual floated was heated to an optimum temperature for relaxation, and steam was often pumped in to help moisture the air. (A)

Floater-935
This Ubrikkian skiff was based on the Desert Sail-20, and was basically a stripped-down version that was designed for high-altitude, personal transportation. Measuring 1.75 meters in length, the Floater-935 required a single pilot, and could carry up to ten kilograms of cargo. The Floater-935 could attain speeds near 300 kilometers per hour, and was unarmed in its stock version. (WOTC, GORW)

Floating Archidia
Native to the planet Nubia, this flowering plant produced brilliant blossoms of blue, purple, and crimson. When mature, the blossom detached itself from the main plant and floated away to pollinate other plants. This form of pollination was made possible by gas sacs attached to the base of the blossom. The scent of the archidia was highly euphoric, but virtually unreproduceable. (CCW)

Floating City
The largest of the settlements found on the planet Aquilaris, Floating City actually hovers a few feet off the surface of the vast ocean which covers the planet. It was located near the planet's largest coral reef. (RAC)

This tastefully-decorated gambling club was located on Cloud City, and was owned and operated by Mussat Nasrabi during the early years of the Galactic Civil War. (IDC)

Floating Fortress
This was the more common name of the Ubrikkian HAVr A9, a cylindrical repulsorlift combat vehicle used to augment Imperial ground troops through the use of sophisticated sensor arrays and a huge blaster cannon. (SWSB, ISB)

Floating Glob
This Charon bio-construct was created as a waste disposal system for use aboard their strange starships. The globs measure about a meter in diameter, and have a number of tendrils which hang down from the main sphere. The tendrils exude an adhesive which attaches waste material to them. The tendrils then consume the waste by placing it inside the acid-filled main body where it was broken down into materials used as food by the glob. (OS)

Floating Home
Lord Ecclessis Figg's first Bespin gas mining colony, Floating Home served as the basis for the development of Cloud City. It proved to the galaxy that gas mining could be profitable, and was the first of a multitude of settlements built in Bespin's clouds. Floating Home itself continued to grow and expand, and eventually was renamed Cloud City once its reached its final state. (ISU, SWDB, IWST, PH)

Floating Jellyfish
This airborne creature was native to the jungles of Baskarn. (SWJ2)

Float-rest Bed
This expensive, luxurious bed allowed an individual to literally float above the mattress on a repulsorlift cushion, eliminating the pressure points and uncomfortable positions of a standard mattress. (LF6)

FloatVan
This was the brand name of a series of repulsor-equipped cargo vehicles that were produced during the years that followed the Swarm War. FloatVans were distinguished by their loading ramps, where were located at the midpoint of the vehicle's body. This minimized the amount of movement a loader had to perform within the FloatVan, so that loaders did not have to move across the length of the vehicle's cargo hold. (FJ3)

Flock, The
This was the term used by the Nediji race to describe their planetary society. All Nediji were, by definition, members of the Flock, although some individuals found that they were not able to exist within the Flock. These individuals were often exiled from Nedij, and were the only known members of Nediji society to travel the rest of the galaxy. (MBS)

Flodon
One of the Imperial agents altered to resemble a Mon Calamari, Flodon's personality was one of stoic disinterest in everything. He was a bit unstable mentally. He had a love of the hunt, and was among the best killers in the service of the Empire. When the Empire invaded Calamari, Flodon assisted Generet in trying to subvert the rebellious Calamarians. (DU)

Flog
This was a slang term used by criminals to describe the act of fencing stolen merchandise for a huge profit. (CN2)

Flog, Giant
This immense, well-muscled, barely sentient being was a gladiator who was owned by Kesivo during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Kesivo had purchased Giant Flog in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy, but that was the extent of what was known about his origins. Giant Flog had very little command of speech, and could only croak a few words. He did, however, obey Kesivo's commands. Kesivo placed Giant Flog into the candidate pool for participation in the Blood Sport of Rattatak, and Giant Flog survived the combat for nearly two years until Asajj Ventress appeared on the scene. It was said that he survived so long because he was actually a demon summoned by strange rituals, or that he had been pieced together from the body parts of dead gladiators. Just after the Battle of Geonosis, Ventress submitted her own name to the gladiator events in order to impress Count Dooku, who was searching for a new leader for his Separatist forces. Giant Flog was the one gladiator survived the longest during the match, and confronted Ventress at the end. The lightsaber-wielding Rattataki was too much for the simple-minded Giant Flog, who was quickly defeated. The mace he had been fighting with was severed from its handle and flew through the air, smashing into Kesivo's viewing box and crushing him to death. (SWDB)

Floob
This was a Sullustan expletive, used to describe another individual who upset the speaker. (MJH)

Flooger

Flooz
This was a derogatory term used to describe any female being who was deemed too simple or deranged to think for herself. (CN2)

Floozam
This small creature was one of many that could be domesticated and kept as a pet. (COTF)

Flopbrim
This was a generic term used to describe any stylish, wide-brimmed hat that was knitted from yarn or wool. Because the hat was formed from yarn, the brim tended to fold downward, and could be pressed down in such a way that it could cover the ears, neck, or eyes of the wearer. (OF)

F'lopo, Forg
This Kubaz was a regular patron of The Chasm, a cantina located in the city of Hedrett, on Cularin, during the final years of the Old Republic. A petty criminal by reputation, Forg was never known for his wealth. So, it was obvious that he was carrying a holocamera with him the night that Riak Muun, posing as Nek Lawsirk, came into The Chasm and simply cut up a group of lowlifes with her lightsaber. Forg later claimed that he had found the holocamera in the fresher, and was taking pictures of his cronies when the fighting broke out. He had planned to sell the footage of the Jedi killing them patrons to Cularin Now, but the Cularin Office of Peace and Security confiscated the holocamera shortly after the incident. (FOC2)

Floppy Helix Intensifier
This device was used to damped the overall strength of a tractor beam generator at any particular point, producing a wide arc of force much wider and longer than the original design. (GG2)

Flora and Fauna
This was one of the many exhibit wings found in the Galactic Museum on Coruscant. (CCW)

Floren
This New Republic warship was part of Task Force Gemstone. (TT)

Floria
This bounty hunter and her brother, Dane, claimed to be from the planet Aaeton, when they were captured by Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker on Ragoon-6, some five years after the Battle of Naboo. The siblings were part of a group of bounty hunters hired by Granta Omega to capture the two Jedi and their companion, Wren Honoran. She beguiled the Jedi by claiming to be a child from Aaeton, lost on a camping trip after her companions were killed. This allowed her to gain their confidence in order for Dane to sneak up on them. The siblings tried to overpower the Jedi, but were unable to do so. Instead, the Obi-Wan and Anakin used them to draw out the other bounty hunters. It was during this time that Floria and Dane admitted they were actually from Thracior. Their parents - a Hnsi mother and a Tantt father - had been killed for intermarrying. In order to survive alone in the galaxy, they took up the bounty-hunting profession. Years later, Floria and Dane remained a team, although they gave up bounty hunting and were working the Mid and Outer Rim Territories as security officers. Shortly after the onset of the Clone Wars, they were hired by Samish Kash to serve as his personal bodyguards. However, during Kash's mission to Null to discuss a treaty with Count Dooku, Kash was assassinated. This brought Floria and Dane back into contact with Obi-Wan and Anakin, who were on Null to meet with Lorian Nod. Floria and Dane were initially accused of killing him, but Anakin discovered that Floria was in love with Samish. Floria then revealed that Samish had not died. (JQ2, LOJ)

Florn
An extrememly hostile and dangerous planet, Florn was the homeworld of the Lamproid race. In order to survive, many beings who visited the planet needed hyperaccelerated nerve implants to help them react to the planet's many pitfalls. (TME, NEGA)

Florrum
This planet was located some six parsecs from the planet Vanqor. Florrum's crust with riddled with pockets of intense heat and pressure, creating a collection of geysers that dotted the landscape. Much of the water that flowed through these pockets passed through dense veins of sulfuric rock, creating a caustic acid that was spewed forth from the geysers. Pirate captain Hondo Ohnaka and his crew established a base of operations on Florrum, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. (CWTV11, CWTV12)

Florrum Crisis
This was the codename of a datafile that was maintained in the Jedi Archives, during the era of the Clone Wars. It described the events that took place on the planet Florrum, and which also became known as the Florrum Crisis. (CWTV12)

Florrum Crisis
This was the term used by Jedi historians to describe the events that took place on the planet Florrum, during the early stages of the Clone Wars. These events centered around the capture of Count Dooku by the Weequay pirate Hondo Ohnaka and his gang, and the Galactic Republic's attempt to pay the pirates' ransom to bring Dooku into custody. Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi were captured while trying to ensure that the pirates actually had Count Dooku in their jail, and Senator Kharrus was killed when he arrived with the ransom. Jar Jar Binks clumsily led a group of clone troopers during the rescue of the two Jedi, although Dooku eventually managed to escape. (CWTV12)

Floubette Dance
This stylized form of the Floubettean mating ritual was considered an art form when performed by avian species. When humans and near-humans perform it, the dance was nothing but disgusting. (SWJ9)

Floubettean
This avian race was known for the complex mating dance that was performed during its reproductive years. The dance had been performed as an artistic expression by other avian races, but it was considered revolting when it was performed by humans. (SWJ9)

Flounut
The flavorful oil that was extracted from this legume was whipped into a form of butter. (SE)

Flow Analyzer Node
This device was used to detect the presence of current in a wire. These devices were often used by smugglers and thieves who needed to bypass electrical circuits to override locks or weapons systems. Flow analyzer nodes had to be used with caution, however, because their accuracy was dependent upon a number of environmental factors, and their results were not always exact. (SWG2P)

Flow-cushion Chair
This luxurious chair used form-fitting cushions to adjust to the body shape of the user. (DN2)

Flower of Life
This wondrous, flowering plant, native to the planet Naboo, was a symbol of royalty. (VD2)

Flower Queen
This woman was the sister of the Leaf Queen, and was responsible for bringing the spring season to the Forest Moon of Endor. (ECAR)

Flowered Plains
This open area was found on the planet Ylesia, near Colony One. It was essentially a flat swamp, although it was covered with huge, exotic blossoms that carpet it completely. (TPS)

Flower-fruit
A succulent native to the planet Dagobah, the flower-fruit had a tough outer skin that protects it from most foraging creatures. When it was exposed to bright lights, the flower-fruit unfolds its skin to expose purplish berries to the light. It was the favorite food of the spotlight sloth, which uses bioluminescent patches on its body to make the flower-fruit open up. The flower-fruit was also referred to as the lahdia. (ISU, WSW)

Flowering Bott Pub
This cantina and restaurant was popular with Newcomers in the city of Hweg Shul. (POT)

Flowfit Chair
This was one of the most extravagant forms of form-fitting furniture that was produced during the era of the New Republic. (DN1)

Flowform Chair
This was another name for a formchair. (DN1)

Flowform Couch
This was a larger version of the common formchair. (FJ2)

Flowstone
This building material was formed from a thick, liquefied mixture of stone, and was used to create durable furniture. (HTTE, JS)

Flow-track
This was one of the key components of a fluidic starship control system. Essentially a collection of pre-routed tubes, the flow-track moved pressurized fluid to the correct systems, based on the opening and closing of certain microvalves. (HSR)

Flow-walking
This was one of the ways that the Aing-Tii monks communicated with the Force. By touching the flow of the Force, an Aing-Tii monk could figuratively walk along it, thereby reading the intentions of the Force. Truly adept monks could use this technique to time-drift, which was the ability travel forward and backward in time along the threads of the Force. There was always a risk of being discovered when flow-walking, and the individual using the technique tended to leave a "blur" behind, especially if the flow-walker moved too fast. This blur was visible to any Force-sensitive individual, but also to other beings. Flow-walking had other pitfalls for the individual who attempted it. The individual needed to stay anchored to their own time in some way, or else the current of time could literally sweep them away. Although it was not clear if an individual who "died" while flow-walking actually died in their own time, events that occurred while flow-walking could cause injury to the individual in their own time.

Jacen Solo later learned this technique, and it helped him make sense of the situation that surrounded his grandfather, Anakin Skywalker's, fall to the Dark Side of the Force. However, Jacen could only flow-walk when in a certain location, and only to another time at the same location. With much practice, he managed to gain more and more strength in using this technique, and even taught it to Tahiri Veila. By giving Tahiri a chance to revisit her final moments with Anakin Solo, Jacen managed to gain her trust as he assumed control of the galaxy. Jacen failed to explain to Tahiri that flow-walking was not a way to actually affect the past, but rather a way to travel back along the thread of an individual's memory. The interactions of an individual who was flow-walking were based solely in their memories, as well as those memories of other beings who participated in the event. This was the reason that it was inadvisable to interact with others in your flow-walking, as this interaction could alter their memories of an event as well. Even if an individual did try to alter the course of history while flow-walking, the Force would eventually intervene and resume its normal flow, restoring things to the way they should be. Although few beings ever attempted it, flow-walking could also be used to look into the future. However, as solid and real as a vision of the future might appear to a being, the Force was alsways present to return the galaxy to the way it was, and to ensure that the future played itself out without any interruption. (DN1, LF2, LF6, LF9, FJ2)

FLR-series Logger Droid
Developed by the Greel Wood Logging Corporation, with the help and manufacturing of Industrial Automaton, this heavy-treaded droid was designed to clear brush and large trees during the harvesting of greel wood. Known as the Lumberdroid, the FLR-series was a 2-meter square box which sat atop two wide treads, and was equipped with two chainsaws and a pair of heavy lifting arms. The FLR was also equipped with sophisticated probability programming, which allowed it to accurately determine when and where a tree would fall once it was cut. (FTD, NEGD)

FLTCH R-1
This huge mercenary droid was sent by Bron and Ephant Mon to eliminate Ki-Adi-Mundi in the depths of the Outsider Citadels, after the Cerean elders rejected admission into the Old Republic. Ki had gotten dangerously close to their source, and needed to be removed. Ki was able to defeat the huge droid after a messenger brought his lightsaber to him, at the request of Nar-Somo-Dali. The droid was recovered by Silais and reprogrammed, and was eventually assigned to assist Ki in his search for Ephant Mon near Tatooine. FLTCH R-1 served as the starship pilot, and profusely apologized to Ki for his earlier actions. (PTR)

FLTCH-series Droid
This was a series of combat droids produced during the decades leading up to the Clone Wars. (OWS, PTR)

Fluffkit
This was a small, furred creature often kept as a pet. They had the annoying habit of climbing trees and getting stuck, unable to climb down on their own. (JQ5)

Fluffy
This was the name of the stalking onsonker that was supposedly owned by Vilmarh Grahrk. He claimed to have used the beast to hunt down Bobo - the alias used by Darth Sidious - and demand that Sidious turn over the Secret Treasure of the Jedi, in return for his life. Garhrk claimed to have placed several of Fluffy's seeds inside Bobo's body. Then, he allowed Fluffy to track down her offspring in order to locate Bobo. After retrieving the Jedi artifact, Villie allowed Fluffy to eat Bobo. (TDV)

Fluffy
A pittin Leia Organa had as a childhood pet on Alderaan. (COJ)

Flugg, Garcy
This man was a skilled and popular hi-lo ball player, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. His elbow eventually gave out from the abuse of the sport, and Flugg reluctantly had a mechanical replacement attached to his shoulder. The original arm was donated to the hil-lo Hall of Fame. (HNN5)

Fluggrian
A squat, green-skinned alien species distinguished by the four knobby protuberances that jutted from their forehead. Native to the planet Ploo IV, Fluggrians use the knobs on their heads as sensory inputs, and they can process this input at incredibly high speeds. They have thick lips which cover square teeth, and they breathe through a pair of gill-like bands which wrap their necks. They were known for their organized crime rings, and were higly suspicious of other beings. Note that the Star Wars Kids magazine claims that the Fluggrians were native to the planet Plooriod IV. (IG1, RAC, SWK, IWE1)

Flugo
This was a common name among members of the Dug race. (UANT)

Fluidics
This was a form of starship technology that was considered outdated by the time of the New Order. Fluidics involved the use of pressurized liquids to deliver the driving force needed to manipulate the steering vanes and other mechanical systems of a starship. The technology still existed on some backwater worlds, and various developing species were only just perfecting it in their societies. (HSR)

Flume, Tike
This youth was the older brother of Trever, and was a native of the planet Bellassa. During the Clone Wars, Tike was among those Bellassans who wanted to defend their planet, but had been too young to enlist. When the Empire arrived and subjugated the planet, Tike was among a group of protesters who tried to prevent Imperial forces from taking control of a defense plant. His father entered the plant in an effort to bring Tike home, but the plant exploded before they could escape. It was believed that Tike's father had tried to negotiate a settlement with the Empire, but they blew up the building anyway. This event was the first true atrocity committed on Bellassan by the Empire, and served to galvanize the public into rebellion. (LJ1)

Flume, Trever
This young man, distinguished by his spiky blue hair, was orphaned on his homeworld of Bellassa when his parents and brother were killed during the final years of the Old Republic. His mother served as a Captain in the Grand Army of the Republic, but was killed during the Battle of T'olan. His father was a doctor who died shortly after the Clone Wars, when the Empire tried to take control of Bellassa. Trever's father had gone into a defense plant to recover his brother, Tike, but both were killed when the plant exploded. Trever was about nine when his mother died, and he was forced to eke out a living as a scavenger, relying on the goodness of others for scraps of food and shelter. When Obi-Wan Kenobi arrived on Bellassa about a year after the Clone Wars ended, the thirteen-year-old Trever ran into him in an alley in the Bluestone Lake district of Ussa, and reluctantly agreed to help him locate Ferus Olin. Although he said he would help Obi-Wan, Trever quickly escaped from the Jedi Master and set out on his own. They met up again after Obi-Wan rescued Ferus, when Trever revealed that he had stolen an old power droid from the Olin/Lands Agency. The droid, which seemed to have a bad motivator, was sold by Trever for a handful of credits. Unfortunately, the bad motivator was actually used to disguise the fact that Ferus and Roan Lands had hidden secret codes and data inside the droid's computer banks. Trever explained that he had sold it to another youth, but Obi-Wan quickly discovered that this youth was actually Boba Fett.

Although they told Trever to remain out of sight, the youth managed to stow away aboard their starship when they fled Bellassa for the space station in orbit around the Red Twins. He remained with the Jedi until they split up, and Trever went with Ferus to Ilum on a mission to rescue Garen Muln. Ferus later discovered that Trever had a knack for explosives, which helped them infiiltrate the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, in an effort to locate Fy-Tor-Ana. Trever also had a desire to exact a measure of revenge against the Empire, and he sometimes found himself at odds with Ferus over their plans. His desire to act was briefly thwarted when Ferus ordered Fy-Tor-Ana to take Trever away from the Jedi Temple, giving them the opportunity to escape while Ferus himself was captured by Malorum's agents. They returned to Solace's underground grotto, only to find themselves in the midst of an attack. When Ferus was captured by Emperor Palpatine and sent to Samaria, Trever accompanied Solace and Oryon on a mission to rescue Roan Lands and Dona Telamark from the True Justice.

Upon returning to Ferus' secret asteroid base, the group learned that the rebel group known as Moonstrike wanted to make contact with them. Knowing that Ferus was still on Samaria, Trever snuck away from the others and set out to meet with Moonstrike's representative on his own. When Flame traveled to Samaria to meet with Ferus personally, Trever was on hand to assist with the rescue of Roshan ambassador Robbyn Sark. He agreed to stay with Flame and the Roshans to ensure their escape was successful, and only barely survived the attack on the Roshan starship. After the ship crashed into its landing platform on Rosha, Trever and Flame were both thrown free of the wreckage, although Sark and the Roshans were killed. After seeing a holovid of Ferus standing next to Darth Vader on Samaria, Trever was forced to question whether or not Ferus had leaked information about their escape to the Imperial forces on Samaria. He also began to question what his role in the galaxy was supposed to be, and memories of his father came flooding back. Remembering that his father had always taught him to honor his commitments, Trever did his best to work toward the goals that Ferus had been pursuing.

He returned to Bellassa with Roan Lands and Dona Telamark, where the group made contact with the Eleven and began to plan further missions with the resistance in Ussa. Trever and Doctor Amie Antin agreed to accompany Roan to the Imperial facilities in Ussa, where Ferus had provided them with access to Governor Wilhuff Tarkin's personal offices. They gathered as much information as they could about the Bellassan Project and the so-called Twilight operation, before they were discovered by Darth Vader. Trever managed to avoid being discovered, and was forced to watch in silent horror as Vader killed Roan and took Amie and Ferus prisoner. He returned to the Eleven with word of Roan's death, then found himself volunteering for a mission to rescue Lune Oddo Divinian, who had been sent to the Imperial Naval Academy. Posing as a recruit known as Fortin, Trever got into trouble almost immediately, and was unable to prevent Lune's removal from the Academy. However, Trever was suddenly whisked away from the facility when Lieutenant Maggis stole a speeder and escaped. Trever directed them to Dexter Jettster's hideout in the Orange District, and Dex agreed to get Maggis to a safehouse.

Trever found that he needed something to do, rather than hanging out with the other exiles, and so he put in motion a plan to break into Jenna Zan Arbor's apartment. Ry-Gaul refused to allow Trever to go alone, but agreed to take Trever along on a mission to rescue Linna Naltree from Zan Arbor. They infiltrated Zan Arbor's Coruscant residence, and planned to grab Naltree from a turbolift. The rescue attempt was nearly bungled when Trever tripped over Zan Arbor's cape, forcing Ry-Gaul to draw his lightsaber and defend them. As he deflected blaster fire from Zan Arbor, Naltree injected Zan Arbor with the memory drug she had been developing, utterly erasing all knowledge of the drug from her mind. Trever was then reunited with Ferus, and helped him infiltrate the Jedi Temple in an effort to prevent Darth Vader from locating Ferus' hidden asteroid base. Unfortunately, Vader had many sources of information, and managed to locate and destroy the asteroid.

With Moonstrike smashed, Ferus was forced to go into hiding. Rather than force Trever to live in fear of being discovered, Ferus asked Malory Lands to create one more dose of Zan Arbor's memory drug, which Malory used to remove Trever's memories of his adventures. Malory then worked with Trever to help him recover from his "amnesia", which included explaining that he had been adopted by Astri Oddo and Clive Flax. The memory loss allowed Malory to convince Trever of his new life with Astri and Clive, who took him with Lune Oddo and set out to have a "normal" life. Little was known about Trever's life during the early years of the Galactic Empire, although it was believed that he was eventually killed by the Imperial forces that killed Astri Oddo, during an attack on the safe house in which they were living. (LJ1, LJ2, LJ3, LJ5, LJ6, LJ7, LJ8, LJ9, LJ10, RF4)

This was one of the most common Gungan surnames, taking from the father's side of the family. These surnames were not dropped, even after marriage. To the Gungans, it meant "ingenious inventor". (GCG)

Flurry
An Alliance Quasar Fire-class cruiser-carrier commanded by Captain Manchisco. It was one of several ships donated to the Alliance by the Sullustans to the Virgillian Alignment forces during the Virgillian Civil War, and was one of the larger ships sent to Bakura to help the Imperial government there battle the Ssi-ruuk. It was equipped with 20 X-Wings (including the ships of Rogue Squadron), 3 A-Wings, and 4 B-Wings. The Flurry was also modified to use General Dodonna's prototype Battle Analysis Computer. For all this, the Flurry was destroyed when Nereus ordered Thanas to open fire on the Alliance ships, following a battle with the Ssi-ruuk. The Dominant, under Thanas' command, opened fire on the cruiser and exploded it, killing her crew. (TB, EGV)

Flurry II

When its legs were retracted, the Fly Eye moved about with the help of an incredibly small repulsorlift engine, attaining speeds of ten kilometers an hour. It was equipped with a holographic recording system and a tightbeam transmission antenna, and was used to capture visual evidence from a remote location. They were used by crimelords and jealous lovers, and were the favored tools of many sleazy newsnet reporters.

The technology used in creating the Fly Eye remained viable for many decades, and these surveillance devices were still in use in the year following the Sith-Imperial War. (EGD, SWLT)

While in flight, the transport would open its cargo bay doors long enough for the fighter to fly inside and land. Note that this maneuver is used in Rebel Mission to Ord Mantell, but involved Han Solo taking in Luke Skywalker's X-Wing into the hold of the Millennium Falcon, despite the large size of an X-Wing compared to the size of a YT-1300 freighter. (RMOM, VP)

FNV-23
Known as the Gray Death, this Imperial-created virus was first tested on the planet Sedesia. Developed under the auspices of the Pathogen-Based Loyalty Enhancement Program by Doctor Fesjo Negleem, FNV-23 had the property of continually changing its antigen needs, making it impossible for an individual to become immune to it. Doctor Negleem later developed the antigen FNV-23-B to help counteract its effects, making it appear that the Empire had helped save the Sedesian people when, in reality, they had made them dependent upon the Empire for their survival. (SWJ6)

FNV-23-B
This was the antiviral drug developed by Doctor Fesjo Negleem to "counteract" the effects of the Gray Death plague that struck the planet Sedesia. The Gray Death was actually known as FNV-23 to the Empire, and had been developed by Doctor Negleem as part of the Pathogen-Based Loyalty Enhancement Program. The secret of FNV-23-B was hidden within Imperial computers, but it was discovered that every dose contained tiny globules of FNV-23 held within a polysaccharide coating. When the coating was digested, it release a new strain of FNV-23 into the system, thereby requiring another treatment of FNV-23-B. In this way, the natives of Sedesia were beholden to the Empire for the continual availability of FNV-23-B for their survival. (SWJ6)

Foahl, Podlong
This Givin worked for Chief Purser Waverton aboard the Aurorient Express, and was responsible for loading and unloading the cargoes of the wealthier passengers. When the ship was attacked by Fastlach-class droids which were hidden in the cargo bays, Waverton's records indicated that it was Foahl who had supposedly loaded Saul Moegantz's cargo. Moegantz's cargo lot had been swapped out in favor of the droids, leading Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi to investigate Foahl's actions in loading the lot. Foahl fled as soon as the Jedi asked him about the cargo lot, not even mentioning the droids. They took Foahl flight as a sign of guilt, and tried to bring him back for questioning. He revealed that he had brought the droids on board for show, as part of a plan to evacuate the ship and steal its more valuable cargoes. However, Foahl was unaware of the true danger that the ship was in. He tried to ensure his survival by threatening to set off a core bomb, but Waverton shot him dead before he could activate the explosive. Waverton later revealed that Podlong had been a pressure pirate, part of the gang who had contracted Waverton to help them steal the cargo from the Aurorient Express. (TAE)

The foam itself was extremely resilient, and could stand up to the punishment of heavy traffic areas. (SWI73)

Foamcast
This building material was developed during the last decades of the Clone Wars, for use in areas where high humidity would rust other materials. It was relatively durable, although it was difficult to repair. The material could be mixed in various consistencies, allowing it to conform to any number of uses. Holovideo producers learned that foamcast could be created in a loose form, that could be used to create prosthetic masks. (MBS, MJH)

Foam-cast
This was a special kind of spray-on material that was found in larger medkits. Foam-cast could be sprayed onto a broken limb, where it would set and harden into a splint that would immobilize the damaged bone.

This device contained a small supply of raw foamplast, which could be used in an emergency to seal a crack in a vacuum or environmental suit. (LSSM)

Foamplast
This form of plastic foam was used to seal cracks or gaps in environment or vacuum suits. When sprayed on a gap, the foamplast would expand to fill in all spaces, then set almost immediately. Although foamplast was considered an emergency application, only a breaching charge or a lightsaber could destroy it. (LSSM)

Foamsteel
This unusual material was essentially a lightweight, aerated form of steel that could be formed into a variety of shapes. (LF4)

Foamwander City
This was one of the primary center of trade and industry of the Mon Calamari people. Foamwander City was also one of the planet Mon Calamari's largest floating cities. Like other floating cities, Foamwander appeared to be a massive dome of smooth coral, with a collection of watchtowers and antennae breaking up the otherwise organic appearance. The dome was just the upper portion of the city, however, as a series of underwater towers and structures were located beneath it. These subsurface structures provided additional living and working space, as well as provided ballast and stability to the main dome. During the years following the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn, Foamwander City sustained large amounts of damage when Admiral Daala attacked the planet, in an effort to cause hardship for the New Republic. After Daala was driven off, Admiral Ackbar and his former assistant, Terpfen, helped oversee the rebuilding of Foamwander City. (DA, GORW)

Focela, Hyrim
This Arkanian was Vaskau Farg's primary contact on the planet Arkania, during his hunt for a Sakiyan witch. Farg hated Focela, considering him too much of everything Arkanian. Despite his hatred, however, Farg had to work with Focela, for it was Focela who controlled much of the information in and around the city of Novania. Outwardly, Focela held the position of Novania's Security Master during the years following the Battle of Naboo, although he always seemed to act in the best interests of the populace. He had little patience for off-worlders who didn't respect protocols, and kept his calendar full of appointments. (PH)

Focus Cooker
This form of oven uses focused energy rays to heat food. (SOP)

Focusing Chamber
This underground chamber was created by the ancient Sith Lords as a place where the energy of the Dark Side of the Force could be focused and channeled to specific individual.

Fod
This was a common name among the members of the Yuzzum race. (GORW)

Fod, "Fugitive"
This Yuzzum was known as an "outlaw singer" who worked gigs in the Corporate Sector of the galaxy during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. It was unknown whether the addition of the word "Fugitive" to his name was purely a promotional stunt, or if he was truly a criminal on the run from the law. (GORW)

Fode
This was the name of one of the two heads of the Troig FodesinBeed, which served Jabba the Hutt as a podracing announcer, during the last years of the Old Republic. Fode, along with his companion Beed, called the Boonta Eve race which was won by nine-year-old Anakin Skywalker. Fode was distinguished from his twin by his red skin and short horns, and Fode spoke Basic in compliment to Beed's use of Huttese. Fode's voice was supplied by Greg Proops for Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace. (E1N, IG1, SWDB, NEGA)

Fode and Beed Show
This was the name of the weekly podracing broadcast that was hosted by the Troig known as FodesinBeed, during the final decades of the Old Republic. (NEGD)

Foerost
This planet was the site of an ancient Old Republic shipyard. The shipyard's engineers removed raw materials from the planet and transported them into high orbit for delivery to the shipyards. It was attacked by Aleema and a cluster of Ulic Qel-Droma's Krath starships and some Mandalorian warships. Qel-Droma then stole nearly 300 of the Republic's starships to add to his vast galactic armada. He took them to Coruscant, where he attempted to eliminate further resistance to Sith domination. Millennia later, the Foerost Shipyards were purchased from the Old Republic by the Techno Union. Several centuries before the Clone Wars, the shipyards served as research and development facilities for the Techno Union, and it was here that the Bulwark Mark I was first developed and produced. During the Clone Wars, the Old Republic tried to simply blockade Foerost, but found its siege broken when Dua Ningo and the Bulwark Fleet blasted their way free. With the defeat of the Bulwark Fleet at the Battle of Anaxes, the Republic eventually returned to recapture Foerost. (TSW, HNN5)

Foerost Shipyards
This was one of the Old Republic's largest shipyards, during the years surrounding the Great Sith War. Millennia later, the Foerost Shipyards were purchased from the Old Republic by the Techno Union. Several centuries before the Clone Wars, the shipyards served as research and development facilities for the Techno Union. (TSW, HNN5)

Foerost Siege
This was the term used by historians to describe the Old Republic's attempt to blockade the planet Foerost and its shipyards, during the early stages of the Clone Wars. The blockade was constructed in response to Foerost's open support of the Techno Union and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, in an effort to ensure that no warships escaped to augment the Separatist forces. Despite their best efforts, the Republic's vessels were unprepared for the appearance of the Bulwark Fleet, which blasted its way free of the blockade and terrorized the Core Worlds for many months. The Old Republic was forced to abandon the blockade in order to chase down the Bulwark Fleet, but eventually returned to recapture Foerost. (NECH)

Fofo
This Huttese word meant "double", referring to a larger portion of a drink or beverage. (GPB)

Fog of War
This was a term used by the military commanders of the Grand Army of the Republic to describe the basic fact that current information from the battlefield was a luxury that an army couldn’t afford to rely on. Once the first shot was fired in a battle, any well-planned mission immediately became invalid, as changing conditions on the battlefield rendered any plan obsolete. Thus, military commanders had to think and command at the spur of the moment, often without any real intelligence on the situation. This lack of curren tinformation was called the fog of war, since a good commander had to see through the fog in order to give the rights commands. It was said that the best commanders never experienced the fog of war, because they forced the enemy to surrender or retreat simply by show of initial force. (RCHC)

Fog Scope
This box-shaped device was used to examine one's surroundings when they were otherwise obscured by fog, mist, or smoke. The fog scope was popular with scouts and explorers, as it proved invaluable for locating one's position and seeing through murky atmospheres to identify dangerous terrain. (CVD)

Fogblaster
This mixed drink was popular among females of the galaxy, during the years following the Swarm War, despite the powerful hangover it induced the next morning. (LF3)

Fogger
This Imperial Nebulon-B frigate was dispatched to the Tungra Sector to clean up the Mugaari pirates operating there, during the weeks that followed the Battle of Hoth. The Fogger was also used as the command ship when the Empire fought to recapture the D-34 platform in the Javin Sector. (TIE, TIEP)

Fogu
This was a popular main dish, during the early years of the New Order. Note that this might be a typographical error, and may be referring to fodu. (DSTR)

Fohargh
This Makurth was among the many students of the Sith arts who were trained at the Sith Academy on Korriban, during the years leading up to the Battle of Ruusan. A contemporary of Darth Bane during his early training, Fohargh was challenged by Bane during their early lightsaber training. The duel was fought with durasteel training blades that were covered with poisoned barbs, in an effort to prevent the death of a potential Sith Lord. Fohargh accepted the challenge, and would have beated Bane if he had simply ended the fight as tradition dictated. However, Fohargh taunted Bane when he was down, incited the man to anger. In his rage, Bane drew upon the Dark Side of the Force and crushed Fohargh's windpipe, squeezing until the Makurth finally shuddered and died. It was later revealed that Fohargh had wrapped himself in a Force-shield, and that Bane had literally ripped through it to kill the Makurth. (DBPD)

Fohlg
This Quarren was one of the caretakers of the Cambrielle Exploration Auditorium during the years following the Battle of Naboo. Fohlg was also known to many beings as an access point to the Auditorium's archives, and could be bribed to allow a being or two to peruse the museum's galactic databasefor information on newly-discovered star systems. He charged a steep price, however, because he was still loyal to his employers. (PH)

Fokask
This planet was the home of one of Han Solo's smuggling buddies. He had settled down there, but remained in touch with Han. The smuggler sent Han a number of questions regarding Leia's status as Chief of State during the Yevethan Purge, and relayed the local opinions of Leia's rule. (SOL)

Fokask Banner

For much of his career, Fol operated from a base on Abregado-rae. (PG3)

Fola
This native of the planet Teyr lived at North 5, 26 Up, in the city of Griann. Fola was married to Kritt, and they were neighbors of the Fallanassi group that lived at North 5, 26 Down, but never knew they were Fallanassi. (SOL)

Fold Space
This was one of the more obscure abilities a Jedi Knight could learn through their connection to the Force. This ability was believed to have originated among the Aing-Tii monks, who used the ability to move their starships across vast distances. The ability to fold space allowed a Force user to move their ship without the need for a hyperdrive, and travel time was almost instantaneous. (WOTC)

Folee
This woman served as an Antarian Ranger, during the era of the Clone Wars. Folee was allied with the growing number of Senators and Jedi Knights who feared that Chancellor Palpatine was gathering too much power, and agreed to help them establish contingency plans in case there was a need to openly rebel against the Chancellor. To this end, Folee agreed to serve as a sort of watchman on the planet Toprawa. She was ordered to wait in Salik City and accept delivery of the freighter Stellar Envoy from Reeze Duurmun and Tobb Jadak, provided that they knew the correct code phrase: "Restore Republic honor to the galaxy." According to her orders, Folee would find an unusual object hidden inside the ship's holds. However, the Stellar Envoy never made it to Toprawa, and Folee was forced to transmit this news to her contacts on Coruscant. (MF)

Folende
This remote world was known as an agricultural center in the Outer Rim Territories. During the decades leading up to the Clone Wars, much of the workforce on Folende was purchased as clones from the Kaminoans, making the workers hard-working, and loyal to their owners. (RCTC)

Foless Crossroads
This intersection of hyperspace shipping lanes was located near the planet Darepp. (SOL)

Foll
This was one of the more common surnames used by the Duros people. Like all such names, Foll was used only for official business, to indicate one individual from another when in the presense of non-Duros. This archaic name literally meant "priest". (GCG)

Followers of Drenn
Very little was known about this band of mercenaries, who were active during the era of the Galactic Civil War. (SWGAL)

Followers of Nyax
This band of Corellian adherents worshipped the ancient ghost known as Lord Nyax, during the height of the New Order. When Darth Vader arrived on Corellia to exterminate any surviving Jedi, in the wake of the Clone Wars, the Followers of Nyax declared that the Sith Lord had been possessed by the spirit of Lord Nyax. Although they held no allegiance to the Empire, they worshipped Vader as the vessel through which Lord Nyax could exact his revenge against the Jedi. (SWGAL)

Followers of Palawa
This group of hermits were highly revered on their homeworld of Bunduki. They were also masters of the martial art known as teras kasi. The Followers of Palawa were considered one of the first groups to actively contemplate the use of the Force. Later investigation into the history of the Followers of Palawa revealed that the group originated on the planet Palawa, but were relocated to Bunduki by the ancient Jedi Knights. The Followers of Palawa were noted for their intense study of the Force and the midi-chlorians that lived in symbiosis with every living being. This study led to an ability to place their bodies into a state of suspended animation, in which an individual could "sleep" for decades. (SESB, NECH, EGF)

Followers of the Way
This was the name used to describe those beings who worshipped the Sacred Way, on the planet Aduba-3. (GMR4)

Folor
This was the largest of Commenor's moona. Its location in the Commenor System allowed it close access to the Corellian spacelanes. The Empire maintained a secret base on Folor, to protect their garrison on Commenor. The Alliance also established a base there, nestled in the abandoned mines that tunneled through the moon. Later, following the Battle of Endor, the New Republic used it as a starfighter training facility. It was on Folor that the X-Wing Rogue Squadron was "reborn," thanks to the work done by Admiral Ackbar and Wedge Antilles. The Republic also maintained a false beacon on the other side of the planet, along with a complete mock-up of a base, to throw off attackers and allow an evacuation in case of attack. This false set of beacons was discovered by Gara Petothel, using Morrt droid data, and Apwar Trigit thought he had the base dead to rights. However, when they arrived at Folor, they discovered that the "base" was simply a barren ice plain. (XWN, XWRR, WS)

Fon, Spa
To most beings who lived in the criminal underworld of the planet Coruscant, Spa Fon was a Nuknog who worked as a fence and an extortionist, during the final years of the Old Republic. Very few belings realized that Spa Fon was actually a Lonjair. By having his Nuknog lieutenant, Errpah, serve as the public face of Spa Fon, the real individual was able to protect his true identity and heritage. The art dealer Shulf'aa revealed to Den Dhur that he had acquired two of Ves Volette's light sculptures from Spa Fon, around the time of the so-called Jedi Rebellion. Spa Fon worked from his residence in the 42nd Level of Imperial City, which was were he was confronted by Den Dhur and Jax Pavan. When Pavan defeated Spa Fon's Cathar bodyguard, Sele, Den Dhur was able to discover the truth behind Spa Fon's identity. The Lonjair squealed for his life, then explained that he had nothing to do with Ves Volette's death. After Pavan and Dhur left, however, Spa Fon made a call to the local police station, reporting them as vicious beings who threatened him and severely beat his employee, Sele. Pol Haus later questioned Pavan and Dhur, but only to make sure that he followed procedure. Ultimately, Haus let them continue with their investigation. (CN2)

Fondine, Slish
This entrepreneur created the first of Umgul City's blobstacle courses in a collapsed sinkhole just outside the city, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. His designs became a model for future courses, and his desire to keep the sport legitimate led him to petition the Umgullian Racing Commission to insititute a death penalty law for anyone caught with tainted blobs. He also owned a blob stable, and regularly raced his blobs in the city. Some seven years after the Battle of Endor, Fondine discovered Lando Calrissian in his stables, shortly after Lando arrived on Umgul to locate Tymmo. Lando discovered that Tymmo was actually Dack, and had been impregnating the blobs with micro-stimulators to improve their performance, in an effort to win enough credits betting on the blob races to escape from Duchess Mistal. When Lando revealed this information to Fondine, Fondine threatened to have Dack executed, as per Umgullian law. Lando, however, convinced him to return the young to Mistal's side, where he would be forced to endure her undying affection for the rest of his life. Seeing that death was a quick end to Dack's misery, Fondine agreed to turn him back over to his wife. He later received a handsome reward from Duchess Mistal, who rewarded both Fondine and Calrissian for their roles in returning Dack to Umgul. In addition to a collection of valuable gems, Duchess Mistal also commissioned a blobstacle course to be built in Dack's honor. The so-called Dack Track was later established and built by Fondine. With the additional credits earned at the new track, Fondine turned over a huge portion of his own reward to Calrissian, in thanks for preventing him from executing Dack. He then invited Lando to return to Umgul and gamble some of newfound wealth on the blob races. (JS, JASB, HNN4)

Fondine Raceways
This blobstacle source, located on the fringe of Umgul City, was built by Slish Fondine in the years following the Battle of Naboo. The course never closed, with racing and waging continuing throughout the night and day. (JASB, HNN4)

Fondor
A planet located in the Mid Rim Territories, Fondor was famous for its shipyards and its military importance. It was located a short distance from a number of trade routes which run from the Core, the Colonies, and the Mid-Rim out to the Outer Rim. Fondor was industrialized millennia before the Battle of Yavin, and much of its surface was scarred from mining and excavation. The droid Bollux was first activated there, during the days of the Old Republic.

After the Empire took control of the shipyards, the Super-class Star Destroyer Executor was built there. Fondor was later liberated from Imperial control and used by the New Republic. Six moons orbited Fondor, all of which were mined for raw ores and materials. Over time, the moons were slowly eroded by mining.

During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, the alien invaders attacked Fondor and its shipyards used suicide bombing runs. Squadrons of coralskippers flung themselves at the orbital facilities, causing untold damage. Fondor itself was leveled by the Yuuzhan Vong, and the system was rendered useless. Nevertheless, the New Republic launched an attack mission to retake Fondor. The battle plan involved the use of the planetary repulsor contained within Centerpoint Station, but ended in disaster. Despite the elimination of the Yuuzhan Vong forces, the blaster from Centerpoint Station wiped out the Hapan battle fleet which had supported the New Republic's forces. Because the Yuuzhan Vong were removed from the system, the New Republic - later reformed into the Galactic Alliance - decided to continue in its plans to rebuild the shipyards at Fondor.

A decade later, Fondor's inhabitants decided to join the so-called Corellian Confederation, bringing the planet's shipyards over to the Corellian rebels. They had been frustrated with the GA's restrictions on military production, which reduced Fondor's operations to the barest minimum. After rising to power, Jacen Solo made it a priority to capture Fondor and either take over its shipyards or destroy them completely. He took elements of the Fourth Fleet with him, and made a deal with Gilad Pellaeon to have naval forces from the Imperial Remnant augment the battle group. The Imperials agreed to join the mission in exchange for control of Bilbringi and Borleais, and also for the chance to capture Fondor for themselves, if the Galactic Alliance faltered.. (HSE, CSW, VM, SWJ12, JE, EGP, FH3, MC98, FP, LF4, LF8)

Fondor Academy of Engineering and Design
This was one of the Old Republic's most prestigious universities, dedicated to the continued development and innovation of starships and other space-going equipment. At the time of the Clone Wars, the Academy was receiving the majority of its funding from Kuat Drive Yards and the Techno Union. (HNN4)

Fondor City
This was the capital city of the planet Fondor, during the centuries leading up to the Yuuzhan Vong War. Much of the city was leveled when the Yuuzhan Vong attacked Fondor, and the city was eventually abandoned. The planetary capital was later moved to Oridin City. (JE, LF8)

Fondor Fowl
This poultry dish was originally created on the planet Fondor. Made from free-range fowl, the dish was covered with a rich, spicy sauce that complemented the flavor of the meat. (CWWS)

Fondor Independent Shipyards
This was the name adopted by the Starship Yards of Fondor, after the Battle of Endor and the elimination of Imperial forces in the system. Although Fondor was officially part of the New Republic, the shipyards tried to remain independent from government control. (PH)

Fondorian
This hairless, humanoid race was native to the planet Fondor. (DMSH, LF5)

Fondorian Fighter
This was the generic term used to describe the starfighters that were produced at the Fondor shipyards, during the years following the galaxy's war against the Yuuzhan Vong. (LF2)

Fonkin, Derble
This was the name of a distingished member of the Toong society. (UANT)

Font of Power
According to the Mind Walkers, the Font of Power was a place where a truly enlightened individual could drink from the power of the Force and give themselves the ability to achieve anything they desired. However, the Font of Power was located in an ancient courtyard that was surrounded by fern-trees and pillar fungi, making it difficult to reach. Once at the fountain itself, an individual had to pass through a cloud of sulfur-like steam that threatened to overwhelm them. Any being who passed through the cloud could drink from the Font of Power until they were satiated. Although the Mind Walkers came to the Font of Power when they left their physical bodies behind and simply immersed their minds in the Force, the Font of Power was a physical thing that was manifested by the Force presence of an exceptionally powerful individual. Luke Skywalker discovered that the Font of Power was apparently a nexus of Dark Side power, although Seek Ryontarr explained to him that he could save the Jedi Order by drinking from it. Skywalker refused, although he feared that Jacen Solo might have drunk from the Font of Power, after deciding that is was his own personal mission to save the galaxy. However, Ryontarr revealed that Jacen had not been tempted by the Font of Power either, and that only those who refused to drink had chosen the right path. The Font of Power was part of the physical presence that was created by the Force presence known as Abeloth, and was surrounded by grottoes and gullies that required any individual who approached them to endure strange passages of time and space. If a being could resist the lure of ultimate power at the Font, they were allowed to pass through more grottoes to reach the Pool of Knowledge. (FJ3)

Fonterrat
This rat-faced, alien scavenger gave Tionne the coordinates of Exis Station, during her search for Jedi lore during the early years of the New Republic. Many years later, Fonterrat stumbled upon the location of Empire's storehouse of plagues, and was able to secure a sample of the Emperor's Plague. He provided the sample to Nolaa Tarkona, and a deal was arranged in which Fonterrat would meet up with Bornan Thul and turn over the navigational data that would reveal the location of the storehouse. Thul would turn over a sealed case with the payment in exchange for the data.

However, unknown to both beings, Tarkona had the credits in Fonterrat's payment tainted with the plague in order to test its effectiveness. Upon learning about the plague, Bornan Thul disappeared with the navigational data, while Fonterrat himself traveled to the planet Gammalin, where he began spending his tainted credits. When the human population started dying because of the plague, and discovered that Fonterrat was the source of the plague, they locked him in jail. He languished there, and eventually died when his human captors all died of the plague. The recordings of his final days were later recovered by Zekk and Boba Fett, who were seraching for Bornan Thul. (DIV, TEP, SWJ15)

Fontin, Kare
This elderly man was a former Old Republic Senator. He was well over 100 years of age when the New Order was implemented, and while his body began failing, his mind was still quick and sharp. He used his wits to avoid succumbing to Imperial pressure, and eventually became a diplomat for the New Republic. (GMH)

Food Synthesizer
Any device which was used to create consumables from certain raw materials. They can be programmed to create almost any dish, thus making them compatible with many different alien tastes. The raw material used to create the food consists of certain starches, sugars, carbohydrates, and proteins. They can be built for residences, large restaurants, and starships. (DA)

Food-board
This was a medium-density, pressed material which was filled with nutritional elements and little else. Popular during the last decades of the Old Republic because it was cheap to produce and ship, food-board often caused gastro-intestinal distress or injury to species which were incapable to fully digesting it. (VD2)

Food-kin
This was the name used by the Priapulin to describe those offspring which were created as a foodsource for an adult. Food-kin were small, crab-like creatures which scuttled about, never leaving the vicinity of their adult. They were fairly intelligent, and often felt a sense of pride in the fact that they were the Priapulin's food. Like the other offpsring produced by the adult, the food-kin lived to serve their parent, and were even proud to be eaten. Once consumed, the eggs of the food-kin were incubated inside the adult Priapulin, continuing their lines as future partners with the Priapulin. (RP)

Foodpak
This was a form of military ration used by the ancient Sith, during the era of the Great Hyperspace War. (LTS1)

Foodtester
Any device which was used to detect the presence of poisons in consumables. (CS)

Foolookoola
This young Fishface princess was the only surviving member of her family, who were staunch Loyalists but were murdered by thugs of the Revolutionary Purist Council. Her protector, Naradan D'ulin, arranged to have princess Foolookoola smuggled off the planet Ootoola by Vilmarh Grahrk, who took them to Dur Sabon. (T3)

Fool's Errand
This was a codename used by Zayne Carrick to describe himself, when he joined Marn Hierogryph and the Hidden Beks to fight against the Mandalorians who invaded Taris, some 3,963 years before the Battle of Yavin. (KOR7)

Fools' Gold
This large ship - measuring almost a kilometer in length - was part of a two-ship convoy that was bringing a shipment of gems to the Chikarri, in the planet Plagen. The gems were from the Klatooinan Trade Guild, as payment for the right to establish a trading post on Plagen. Both ships were built for the sole purpose of transporting precious cargoes, and their cargo bays were actually huge vaults equipped with the best inertial dampers credits could buy. The hulls were reinforced in order to survive any attack, and the fuel cells were capable of propelling the ships for several centuries. The Fool's Gold was lost in the Karbonni Asteroid Belt when it was forced out og hyperspace by a rogue asteroid, and it was not seen for several centuries until its existence was discovered by a Chikarri historian, some years after the Battle of Endor. Chiakrri law stated that the ship was the property of whoever found it first, and a race to locate the ship ended when a group of explorers outraced Bruce Mercy and his pirates to it. (TSK)

Fopow, Rankwin
This being served as the leader of the Cadinth Oligarchy, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. As Prime Oligarch, Fopow maintained his support of the Old Republic only as long as the Jedi watchman, Bodis-Ker Vitan, maintained the peace in the surrouding space. After Vitan's death, Oligarch Fopow indicated that he was "firmly undecided" as to where his loyalties lay. (HNN5)

This was the capital city of the planet Dosha. (SWJ4)

For'ali
This elderly Twi'lek male was a noted expert on tactile communications methods, during the years following the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. For'ali's expertise was in non-written forms of communications, such as knot-tying. This expertise led Jacen Solo to seek out For'ali's aid in deciphering a collection of knotted strands that were discovered on Toryaz Station, during the investigation into the death of Siron Tawaler. Despite his expertise, For'ali was only able to decipher one of the strands, which he discovered was a remnant of the Tahu'ip culture. (LF1)

Forard
This quaint city was located on the planet Almas. It was laid out in a circular pattern, with one quadrant given over to a spaceport and a variety of research facilities. At the center of the city was the Almas Academy. The city was first founded on top of a massive patch of kaluthin grass, which managed to survive in the presence of the Light Side of the Force. During the final years of the Old Republic, Forard was something of a tourist destination, and passengers on the Queen of Cularin were given a chance to tour the city during a stopover. (LFC, JST2)

For-Atesee
This IG-series assassin droid became one of the first Imperial Grand Moffs, during the early years of the New Order. He was often accompanied by IG-153 and IG-182, two of the IG-100 MagnaGuards who once served as part of General Grievous' Izvoshra during the height of the Clone Wars. (OWS)

Forb, Jonox
This smuggler was one of many who discovered that the planet Hoth offered much in the way of remoteness and privacy, despite its obvious environmental problems. During the early years of the New Order, Forb established Snowflake Base on Hoth, citing its proximity to Bespin, the Corellian Trade Spine, and the Hydian Way. His records were discovered in an abandoned wampa lair by General Carlist Rieekan during the Alliance's occupation of the planet, just prior to the Battle of Hoth. (PH)

Forb Basic
This was a specialized computer-input language used by many of the galaxy's computers, including Blue Max. (HSE)

Forbelean Defense
This was a defensive posture, developed by the Chiss for use in hand-to-hand combat. From this position, virtually ay form of attack could be deflected. (FH1)

Forbes
Manufacturers of anti-radar defense units. (MMY)

Forbidden
A Lambda-class shuttle stolen by the New Republic, the Forbidden was used by the training center of Folor. It later was part of the assault fleet sent to the planet Borleais. It was piloted by Tycho Celchu; due to his questionable status within the New Republic, the Forbidden's weapons systems were removed. The Forbidden was later used to ferry criminals from Kessel to its moon, when the Rogues negotiated the release of Zekka Thyne. (XWN, WG)

Forbidden Castle
This ancient fortress was located atop a rocky tor on the planet Munto Codru. (EGP)

Forbidden Fortress of the Gorax, The
A huge stone tower built by the Gorax near the Desert of Salma on Endor. It was a tall, rocky spire whose entrance was hidden in the tumble of rocks at its base. (EA)

Forbidden Gardens of Nuswatta
Jabba the Hutt once witnessed these wondrous gardens, despite the fac that access to them was forbidden to most beings. Much of the maintenance of the gardens was automated, with tree feeder droids and other automata tending to the various species of plants. (JTH, NEGD)

Force Absorb
This was one of the many alter skills that were only practiced by the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. It involved the use of the Force to absorb the power of an attack from the Dark Side of the Force, turning the damaging attack into power for one's own use. (JKAP)

Force Assassins
This band of warriors was locked in a form of civil war with the Warrens Assault Squad throughout the era of the New Order. Neither side of the war could remember the exact nature of their dispute, nor why they continued to fight. The fighting was confined to the area of the Dantooine System known as the Ebon Essentia, and the Empire strangely turned a blind eye to the conflcit. (SWGAL)

Force Barrier
This was the name given to the ability of a Force-sensitive individual to create a nearly-impenetrable wall of Force energy that could protect them from the Force attacks of another individual. Originally developed and practiced by the Umbaran Shadow Assassins, a Force barrier was not perfect, and the combined efforts of several powerful Force users could eventually break through the barrier. (DBRT)

Force Baton
This was a powered staff, shorter than a force pike, which was used in melee combat. Like the force pike, the force baton contained a tiny power source that generated a powerful electric discharge to the skin of a being, causing pain in addition to the blow from the weapon itself. (TF)

Force Bubble
Developed by the Jedi Knights as a defensive measure, the Force bubble was a kind of shield that protected the individual inside it. When properly formed, the Force bubble provided a complete sphere of protection, deflecting energy and projectile weapons away from the being inside. (FH2)

Force Cage
This was a portable force field generator which produced a cell-sized enclosure to lock up a criminal or target. It attached to a collapsible frame made from bi-state memory plastic, and was used by law enforcement agencies across the galaxy. (GG10)

Force Call
This was a technique used by Luke Skywalker and the new order of Jedi Knights that allowed a powerful Jedi to call out to other Jedi across a great distance. Depending on the strength and skill of the Jedi, the call could be made between star systems or, in the case of Master Skywalker's call to the entire order during the crisis with the Colony, to all Jedi located across the galaxy. It took a great deal of mental and physical effort on Master Skywalker's part to make such a far-reaching call. (DN3)

Force Camouflage
This was a term used by Jacen Solo and other Jedi Knights of the Galactic Alliance era to describe the ability of a Force users to hide themselves from other Force-sensitive beings. Those few Jedi or Sith that could perform the technique seemed to blend into the universe, dissolving into it while maintaining their own individuality and remaining fully aware and functional. (LF5)

Force Certainty
This was the term used by Jedi Grand Master Luke Skywalker to describe the innate ability to discern whether another being was being truthful or not. Many Jedi used this technique instinctively, to determine whether or not to trust another being. (LF8)

Force Chain
The ancient Jedi discovered this ability in certain individuals, who learned that they had forged a mental link to one or more other Jedi. The exact mechanism of the linkage was unknown, and many Jedi considered it to be the will of the Force whenever a Force Chain was created. While connected by this link, the strengths of individual Jedi could be used by the others, allowing them to work together against a common enemy. Once discovered, the Force Chain could be used to augment strength and maintain health. However, the link created by the Force Chain also linked the individual Jedi together when they were injured, and all members of the link felt the pain of the others at the same time. It was believed that, should the individual from which the Force Chain began were die, then all the Jedi in the link would die as well. (KOTOR2)

Force Choke
see Force Grip (JKAP)

Force Cocoon
This was a technique that many Force users learned as a defensive action. In using a Force cocoon, a being wrapped themselves with the Force, using the cocoon as a kind of personal shield to deflect small objects. (CN3)

Force Cuffs
Similar in many respects to binder or tractor cuffs, force cuffs were used to bind the hands and feet of a prisoner. If the prisoner moved too much, or tried to free themselves, the force cuffs sent an electric charge through the prisoner's body. The amount of electricity used in the charge was proportionaly to the amount of struggling an individual did. (LCF, CN1)

Force Cylinder
This was the name of a device which allowed life forms to transfer from one ship to another through space, without actually linking the ships together physically. A force field created the tube, sealing up against the hulls of two ships. While not exactly foolproof, force cylinders were considered one of the most reliable intra-ship travel technologies of the New Republic. (HTTE)

Force Demon
This form of Force projection was learned by only a handful of Dark Jedi and Sith. Once conjured from the Force, the Force Demon appeared as a dense vapor that was like smoke, and gained strength by draining the life-energy of any living creature it came into contact with. (OWS, MCA1)

Force Demon
This race of evil creatures once ruled the galaxy. (CSWDW)

Force Detector
A device rumored to have been developed by Emperor Palpatine, the Force Detector used two unique sheet-crystal paddles and a control pack to determine whether or not a person was Force-sensitive. The designs for the Force Detector were based on the work of Jenna Zan Arbor, who never fully realized a working prototype. Thaissen crystals, found only on the planet Circarpous V, were used in the paddles. If the person had some sensitivity to the Force, a bluish aura was displayed around them when the detector was activated. An individual with a strong connection to the Dark Side of the Force registered a reddish aura. The strength of the aura had come correlation to the amount of Force sensitivity the person had. Anyone without Force sensitivity did not register the blue aura. This sensor system was based on the recognition systems of Sith Dark Eye probe droids. It was believed that some 10,000 of these devices were created for Emperor Palpatine, who ensured that each one of them was approved by Lord Cronal. (JS, PJSB, OWS)

Force Dragon
This was a common nickname used to describe the taozin. (CN2)

Force Drain
This was one of the many Force skills that were practiced only by the Dark Jedi and the Sith. Considered to be an alter skill, Force Drain allowed an individual to draw power and strength from another Force-sensitive individual. The accumulated power could then be called upon by the Dark Jedi to perform another action. (JKAP)

Force Dream
This was the term used by the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic to describe any subconscious connection to the Force that provided a being with strange and wonderful dreams. Force dreams were considered different than farseeing, since they provided no information about future events. They were useful, however, in understanding the stresses a being was experiencing. (MBS)

Force Escort Unit
This was the term used to describe an Imperial Navy Systems Force that was missioned to ensure the safety of a larger attack force. The mission of the force escort unit was to ensure that the larger, slower vessels of a force superiority unit were able to enter and exit a battlezone without taking damage from enemy vessels. (ISB)

Force Fence
A fence used to enclose prison grounds, it carries some sort or repulsion and/or shock field to deter the prisoners from escaping. (LCM)

Force Ghost
This was a term used by many beings to describe the semi-physical emanations of a deceased being through the Force. According to legend, a Force ghost could communicate with their loved ones who still lived, although many Jedi were skeptical of the existence of such an entity. (LF1)

Force Grip
Sometimes called a Force Choke, this technique was used only by the Dark Jedi and the Sith. By using certain control and alter skills, the Dark Jedi could use the Dark Side of the Force to take hold of another individual's bodily structures and crush them. This technique could also be used to place another individual in a Force-assisted grip, which could be used to push or pull them into a dangerous position. (JKAP)

Force Harvester
This unusual piece of ancient technology was believed to have been lost on Raxus Prime many centuries before the Battle of Geonosis, and eventually buried under all the debris which littered the planet's surface. It was originally created by Exar Kun during the time of the Great Sith War, as the power source for the weapon known as the Dark Reaper. The Harvester was designed to drain the energy of the Force from any living being, regardless of whether they were Force-sensitive or not. Around the time of the Battle of Geonosis, Count Dooku began a massive excavation effort to locate the Harvester. Unfortunately, the Jedi Knights and a task force of the Army of the Republic discovered Dooku's base of operations and bombarded it before the Harvester could be recovered. (BF2, CWG, NECH)

Force Heal
This was one of the many alter skills that were taught to the Jedi Knights, but never adopted by the Dark Jedi or Sith. Using this technique, an individual could call on the Force to heal one's injuries, providing a temporary burst of health in a difficult situation. (JKAP)

Force Jump
This was one of the control skills that was taught to most Jedi Knights. It involved the use of the Force to augment a being's ability to leap upward, giving them additional height when jumping. (JKAP)

Force Light
This was a relatively obscure Force technique that could be learned by a Jedi Knight. Any Jedi who could master the skill could attempt to redeem an individual who had performed an evil act, or had fallen prey to the Dark Side of the Force. The use of the Force Light technique was not guaranteed to succeed, and often had other consequences. Often, the targetted individual is so full of doubt and remorse that they would rather be punished than redeemed, which could lead to emotion and mental trauma.

When properly used, Force Light generated a blast of light that could weaken or destroy a spirit of the Dark Side, or drive off the affects of the Dark Side in a given location. (JCT3)

Force Lightning
This skill was one of the most powerful techniques that could be learned by a Dark Jedi or a Sith. It used alter skills to create a corruption of the Force that manifested itself in crackling blue lightning, which could be manifested in the hands and directed at an opponent. The effects of Force Lightning were devastating, especially if a Dark Jedi could maintain the lightning for an extended period of time. It was believed that Darth Vader could never employ Force Lightning, since his prosthetic arms meant that he could not channel the Force through his hands.

The Jedi Council of the Old Republic forbade the use of Force Lightning by any Jedi, but a handful of Jedi Masters refused to abide by this decision. They argued that their control over the lightning gave them a powerful tool in combatting their enemies, since they could use it incapacitate an opponent without drawing their lightsaber. Jedi Master Plo Koon called the use of Force Lightning by a Jedi Knight the Electric Judgement. (E6, TB, JKAP, RFDV, EGF)

Force Mind Trick
This was a technique that was taught to more advanced Jedi Knights. A combination of control and alter skills, the Mind Trick allowed a Jedi to influence the thinking of another individual by planting suggested ideas in their minds. This skill worked particularly well on weak-minded individuals, but there were some races that were immune to its affects, such as the Hutts and the Toydarians. (JKAP)

Force Mite
This unusual insect, native to the planet Balanor, was a tiny creature with a multitude of legs and tiny wings. The Force Mite was resistant to a wide range of climates and environments, though it prefered tropical conditions. These insects traveled singly or in small groups, and rarely swarmed. Force Mites did not require oxygen for food to survive, instead feeding on the power of the Force that flowed within an individual creature. While most every being in the galaxy had some level of midichlorians in their cells, Jedi Knights were the favored prey of the Force Mite, due to their high concentration of Force energy. The Force Mite attacked by first using a blade-like beak to cut into its target, taking blood and nutrients from the "host." A second proboscis then plunged into the target's flesh to extract the Force energy. While under the draining influence of the Force Mite, a victim was very agreeable to suggestions, becoming almost drunk in attitude and mannerisms. (WOTC)

Force Multiple Orbit
Known as The Atom, this starfighter formation was developed by the Imperial Navy to intercept an vessel which couldn't produce the appropriate identification codes. Imperial fighters were launched to intercept the target ship, then assumed criss-crossing orbits at staggered distances, thereby covering every inch of the target ship with swift-miving fighters. This formation, when performed correctly, made the target ship look like the nucleus of an atom, with the fighters whirling around like electrons. This formation prevented the target ship from getting an accurate targetting lock on the fighters, allowing the main Imperial ship to ready weapons and tractor beams for boarding. (SWED)

Force Net
This was a technique that was developed by those Force wielders who turned to the Dark Side of the Force. The Force net was a golden apparition of energy that could be directed at a object or another being. When trapped behind the Force net, a living captive was unable move, as any contact with the energy of the net was similar to that of being touched by a lightsaber. If the Dark Jedi then drew the Force net closer to the captive, they could literally cut the captive apart with the net's energy. Lomi Plo used this technique to destroy a Yuuzhan Vong warrior, just before the crash of the Tachyon Flier. (DN3)

Force Nexus
This was a term used by the Jedi Knights to describe any location in the time-space continuum where there was an exceptionally strong connection to the Force. These locations were usually catalogued and identified by the type of energy that could be found in the nexus, although the locations most often identified were Dark Side nexuses, like the one Yoda found beneath a gnarled tree on Dagobah. The new Jedi Temple on Coruscant, rebuilt after the Yuuzhan Vong War, contained a sealed chamber that walled off a Force nexus from unsuspecting students and Jedi. (FJ1)

Force Nova
This was the term used by Ben Skywalker to describe the wave of change within the Force that occurred when Centerpoint Station was destroyed, during the Second Galactic Civil War. The destruction of the station caused a fundamental change in the Maw cluster of black holes, and this change could only be felt by Force-sensitive individuals. The epicenter of the change was the Maw itself, and the change rippled outward throughout the galaxy and affected every being who had lived in or near the Maw. This "Force nova" caused Jedi Knights like Valin and Jysella Horn to experience Force-related psychoses in which they came to believe every other being around them was an imposter, and caused them to go into paranoid episodes of violence as they tried to understand what they believed had happened around them.

Force Phantom
This was the name used to describe an individual's ability to use the Force to project an image across a vast distance. Often referred to as a Force Ghost, Force phantoms were not the spiritual emanation of a deceased being, but the product of a living mind. Depending on the skill and strength of the individual, the Force Phantom could appear as little more than a ghost, or it could seem to be a real entity that could interact with its surroundings. The "realness" of the Force phantom, and its ability to interact, were affected by the strength and skill of the projecting individual, and maintaining a Force phantom was both physically and mentally exhausting. While a Force phantom could inflict damage, this ability was limited to the use of the body that was being projected. A Force phantom would carry a lightsaber, but was unable to pick up a blaster and fire it at a target.

The first known use of the Force phantom was attributed to Darth Vectivus, although the Sith Lords who existed on Korriban during the years following the Swarm War believed that Vectivus had been a fraud. He used Force-augmenting Sith technologies to enhance his abilities, instead of learning to create the Force phantom on his own. (LF1, LF4, LF7)

Force Pike
A older weapon, much like a long staff with a vibroblade at the end. See electro-jabber. (CPL)

Force Potential
This was the term used by the Jedi Knights to describe the life-energy of the midi-chlorians contained within every living being. This differed from Force sensitivity, which was the ability to tap into the power of the Force. (DN1)

Force Presence
This was the term used by the Mind Walkers to describe the essence of an individual's being that existed purely within the Force. A being's Force presence was described as an eddy or swirl within the Force, which mingled with other Force presences to create the universe. The Force presence was what animated a being's physical body, giving it form, but it was the Force presence that was the only real thing. The Mind Walkers believed that the body and the other aspects of the physical world were nothing more than illusions, and spent their lives attempting to shed their physical possessions in order to commune with the Force. (FJ3)

Force Protect
This was one of the many techniques that were taught to the students of the Jedi Order. It involved the use of control and alter skills to project a simple force field around one's body, briefly protecting them from harm. (JKAP)

Force Pull
This control skill was taught to every Jedi Knight. It involved the use of the Force to draw an object or being closer to your body. (JKAP)

Force Push
This was one of the control skills that were taught to every Jedi Knight. It involved the use of the Force to repel an object or being away from one's body. (JKAP)

Force Rage
This was one of the more powerful techniques that were taught to the Dark Jedi and the Sith. It was similar in some respects to a stimulating drug or a Wookiee battle cry in that it allowed an individual to unleash primal energies. When coupled with a link to the Dark Side of the Force, however, these energies manifested themselves as Force Rage, giving the Dark Jedi or Sith increased power for a short period of time. This alter skill was also one of the most demanding of the dark arts, as it drained huge amounts of energy from the individual using it. The individual then had to recouperate for an extended period of time before being able to call upon the Dark Side of the Force again. (JKAP)

Force Sabaac
An ancient variation of Sabacc, in which the cards were not randomized, but the players must declare their hand to be light or dark, based on the cards dealt to him. The strongest light or dark hand wins, provided that the overall lightness or darkness (based on all the hands in play) was in their favor. A lone dark hand against all light hands was almost always a loser. (CPL)

Force Scream
Once called "a wave of hatred, amplified and fueled by the Dark Side," this Sith power allowed the wielder to smash through mental and physical defenses with ease. (TOJC)

Force Sense
This basic sense skill was taught to Jedi Knights of all levels. With it, a Jedi was able to use the Force to sense the presence of an object or being that was hidden from view. This skill could be extended to allow a Jedi Knight to sense the presence of another Force-sensitive being in their vicinity. (JKAP)

Force Sensitivity
This was the term used by the Jedi Knights to describe a trait in some individuals which allowed them to be more attuned to the Force than others and actually tap into its power. This differed from Force potential, which was basically the life-energy of the midi-chlorians contained within every living being. (SME, SWSB, DN1)

Force Shackles
This was the name given to a set of very effective, very expensive restraining devices that used alloy cuff bands to hold a captive. The bands had miniature tractor beams placed on them, which grasped the opposing cuff band and kept it locked in place. The tightness of the cuff could be modified by varying the intensity of the tractor beams. (LCF)

Force Shadow
This was a technique learned by Jedi Knights and Sith Lords alike. By using this skill, an individual could become invisible within the Force, hiding them from other Force users. This skill took a great deal of time and concentration to learn, and even more dedication to use it effectively. (LF3)

Force Slinger
This was a Basic term used by many beings to describe any being who could control the Force, including the Jedi Knights and other Force-sensitive beings. (CN3)

Force Speed
This was one of the most basic control uses of the Force that was taught to a Jedi Knight. Using this skill, a Jedi could call upon the Force to increase their rate of speed while running, allowing them to escape a conflict or reach a distant area in minimal time. (JKAP)

Force Spike
This was a Force-based technique that was practiced among the members of the Tribe that evolved on the planet Kesh. A Force spike was a concentrated attack on another being, using a sharp, powerful dagger of Force energy to pierce the target's internal organs. The use of a Force spike could be quite deadly, depending on the area of the body that was hit. (FJ3)

Force Spirit
This was the term used to describe any disembodied manifestation of a once-living, Force-sensitive individual. Many Jedi Masters and other strong Force users discovered ways to exist in spirit form, long after their physical body was gone. Rather than simply becoming part of the Force, the denied the will of the Force to retain their individuality. Because this went against the nature of the Force, any Jedi who managed to become a Force Spirit could only manifest itself for a limited time. Because the Sith and other Dark Jedi used the Force for their own ends, they often bypassed this limitation to remain spirits indefinitely. In general, a Force Spirit cannot be "killed" by normal means. Often, as in the case of the Jedi, they simply cease to exist. Other spirits can be destroyed with sufficient Dark Side energy, making the elimination of a malevolent spirit dangerous for most Jedi. (PJSB)

Force Storm
This was the term used to describe a tornado of energy that could be created by manipulating disturbances in the Force. These storms were very hard to control, and only an exceptionally strong Sith Lord could be allowed to practice their creation. As he described in The Book of Anger, Emperor Palpatine knew that Force storms were created by bringing Anger and Will together in the Force, allowing their energies to clash and combine into a swirling maelstrom of emotion. (DE1, CPL, OWS)

Force Stun
This was a skill used by the Jedi Knights that involved drawing upon the power of the Force to stun another being into unconsciousness. (RC66)

Force Superiority Unit
This was the term used to describe any fully-armed Imperial Navy Systems Force made up from three battle squadrons and a supporting light squadron. This unit was considered the strongest of the Systems Forces in the Imperial Navy. (ISB)

Force Tag
This was one of the many games used by the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic to train young children to feel and attune themselves to the Force. (YDR)

Force Technical Support
This was the term used to describe any Imperial Navy Systems Force that was missioned to ensure that technicians and mechanical experts could be escorted to damaged vessels in a battlezone. An FTS unit had eight vessels, often Evakmar-KDY transports, each of which were supported by a pair of escort ships. The troopers on an FTS vessel were capable of repairing a still-operative ship, but were often unable to restore dead hulks to operational status. These derelicts were often towed by tractor beam to a remote drydock or other repair facility for restoration. (ISB)

Force Tunnel
This was a specialized form of force field that was shaped like a tunnel or tube. A force tunnel was used to surround a starship's conveyor bridge, keeping in a small amount of atmosphere while cargo was moved between two ships that were hovering in space. (LSSM)

Force Two Armada
This classification of fleet strength indicates a large-scale assault grouping. (SOL)

Force Wars
This was believed to have been the first conflict between the followers of the Light and Dark Sides of the Force. The onset of the Force Wars began on the planet Tython, some 25,793 years before the Battle of Yavin, when those beings who were sensitive to the Ashla energy field opposed the use of this power for personal gains. The followers of the Ashla were eventually victorious, although the conflict exhausted the planet's population and resources, and Tython was all but destroyed. In the wake of the Force Wars, the followers of the Ashla were believed to have established the first incarnation of the Jedi Order. They laid down the groundwork for the Jedi Code, establishing the order as a monastic society of warriors who contemplated the use of the Ashla in discovery knowledge, harmony, and peace. (NECH, SWORW)

Force Whip
This was a whip-like device that discharged intense bursts of energy when it contacted an opponent. Force whips were favored by slavers and animal trainers, since it allowed them to control other beings from a relatively safe distance. (COTF)

Force Whisper
This was a technique that was employed by the Sith and many Dark Jedi, in which they could used the Force to add significant power and mental suggestion to a barely whispered command. This allowed the Dark jedi or Sith to influence an individual without drawing undue attention to their actions. (LF3)

Force Witch
This was a generic term used to describe any group of Force-sensitive females who were trained without the intervention of the Jedi Order. These females were often found on remote or backwater worlds where their powers were believed to be little more than magic. Often, these Force witches were unware of the existence of the Jedi Order or the Sith, and so they lacked any knowledge of other Force users in the galaxy. The most notable Force witches were the Witches of Dathomir. (EGF)

Force Yimi
This was one of two task forces, along with Force Zexx, that were dispatched as part of Sadras Koyan's secret scheme to assassinate Jacen Solo, some forty years after the Battle of Yavin. While Koyas and Admiral Genna Delpin remained on Centerpoint Station, they dispatched a small fleet of ships under the command of Captain Hoclaw to meet with Solo at a pre-arranged rendezvous point. The plan hinged on Solo agreeing to meet with Koyan to discuss Corellia's possible return to the Galactic Alliance. While Hoclaw handled the initial negotiations, Koyan and Delpin readied Centerpoint Station to fire its planetary repulsor at Solo's flagship, the Anakin Solo. Force Yimi and Force Zexx were dispatched to engage the Galactic Alliance starships that surrounded the Anakin Solo, holding the vessel in place until Centerpoint could be fired. After the weapon was fired, large portions of both the Galactic Alliance and Corellian fleets were destroyed, and only a handful of starfighters from both sides managed to survive. (LF7)

Force Zexx
This was one of two task forces, along with Force Yimi, that were dispatched as part of Sadras Koyan's secret scheme to assassinate Jacen Solo, some forty years after the Battle of Yavin. While Koyas and Admiral Genna Delpin remained on Centerpoint Station, they dispatched a small fleet of ships under the command of Captain Hoclaw to meet with Solo at a pre-arranged rendezvous point. The plan hinged on Solo agreeing to meet with Koyan to discuss Corellia's possible return to the Galactic Alliance. While Hoclaw handled the initial negotiations, Koyan and Delpin readied Centerpoint Station to fire its planetary repulsor at Solo's flagship, the Anakin Solo. Force Zexx and Force Yimi were dispatched to engage the Galactic Alliance starships that surrounded the Anakin Solo, holding the vessel in place until Centerpoint could be fired. After the weapon was fired, large portions of both the Galactic Alliance and Corellian fleets were destroyed, and only a handful of starfighters from both sides managed to survive. (LF7)

Force, The
This was the name given to the energy field that occurred naturally in the galaxy, springing from all forms of life. The ancient Jedi Knights were believed to have been the first to openly contemplate the Force, although other groups were known to have investigated its existence before the formation of the Jedi Order. According to most beings, the Force was an energy field that could be manipulated by conscious will. It existed everywhere and in everything, and was believed to be something that had no end. Early scholars believed that the Force was either generated by, or facilitated by, symbiotic entities known as midi-chlorians, which lived in the cells of all living beings. Because these midi-chlorians were not tied to any specific gene or sequence of genes, the ability to access the Force was not based solely on heredity or lineage, although crtain families and species seemed to produce more Force-sensitive individuals than others.

The early Jedi believed that the Force had two "sides," a light side and a dark side, although this was a great oversimplification of the Force's existence. This belief was originally developed by the Masters of the Tython Jedi, who accepted the existence of the Ashla and the Bogan, as described by the Tythonians. The Jedi Knights tended to delve only into the light side of the Force, which was grounded in the pure service to other beings. The Jedi believed that the Force had many aspects, including a living element and a unifying element, and it bound all things together in a great web of existence. In this way, the Jedi saw the Force as its own end. The Sith, considered the opposite to the Jedi, were formed from those individuals who wanted to investigate the Dark Side of the Force, and were exiled for their devotion. While acknowledging that they learned of the Force through the Dark Side teachings of the ancient Sith, the Sith simply saw the singular power of the Force, which to them was a means to an end.

Once the Jedi Knights discovered that the Force was accessible to all living beings through the presence of midi-chlorians in their cells, other aspects of the symbiotic relationship began to be discovered. The more midi-chlorians that inhabited a being's cells, the more the being was able to contact the Force. However, a high concentration of midi-chlorians did not guarantee that a being had strong control of the Force. Only through intense study and dedicated training could a being become proficient in harnessing the power of The Force. Even then, the consumption of certain drugs and alcohol often blurred an individual's ability to connect to the Force, and long-term medical sedation caused a being to lose their control of the Force. The Jedi Council discovered that younger beings had an easier time of learning the techniques required to touch and control the Force, since they were usually free from emotional attachments to other beings and places. The Jedi Order eventually developed a system that actively sought out and identified beings with high midi-chlorian counts at their birth, or very shortly afterward. With, or sometimes without, the permission of the parents, the Jedi took children no more than one year old away for training. Children and older beings, who had already established a set pattern of mental and physical usage, often were unable to complete the necessary training, and were deemed too wasteful of Jedi resources.

The Jedi Knights historically were the most powerful users of The Force, having trained with and learned the three basic techniques: control (the manipulation of one's internal Force strength), sense (detection of the Force in the external world), and alter (manipulation of matter with the Force). These techniques, used by themselves or in combination, allow the Jedi to perform many different activities with the Force. The Sith, on the other hand, gained strength from the Force by focusing their emotional energies - especially strong emotions like anger and hatred - which gave the quick mastery but didn't take much discipline. However, the Jedi and the Sith were not the only groups that learned how to commune with the Force, and their views on the Force were not definitive by any means. The Aing-Tii monks believed that the Force was something that was given to the galaxy by Those Who Dwell Beyond the Veil, and that any being could use the Force, regardless of their midi-chlorian levels. The Aing-Tii tried not to direct the Force in any way, but let it guide them on their paths through life. The secretive Aing-Tii also refused to classify the Force as dark or light, good or evil, but seemed to view it as a rainbow of colors that represented its many aspects. The followers of the Cosmic Balance believed that the Force existed in a state of perfect balance between good and evil, and that any exceptional act of goodness would always be followed by a period of great evil. The Followers of Palawa did not set the Force into classifications, and instead contemplated it as a single thing that connected all life together. The ancient Rakatan civilization simply viewed the Force as a tool that could be used to power weapons and starship drive systems, although they discovered that the darker side of the Force seemed to provide them with more power.

Despite these many viewpoints, the Jedi Order continued to view the Force as a duality, with the Jedi on the side of the light and the Sith on the side of the dark. Any Jedi who fell from the path of the Light Side of the Force was deemed to be evil, although it was possible to return to the light side, given the proper actions by another Jedi. The return to light from darkness was not easy, the Jedi believed, because the Dark Side of the Force was so seductive and all-encompassing that it blotted out anything else. Only the powerful love and dedication of another being could bring a fallen Jedi back to the light, although such an individual was often viewed with skepticism for a long period of time.

The nature of the Force was considered to be a constant, and many Jedi were often quoted as saying that the Force was the beginning, the middle, and the end of all things. However, this belief changed some 200 years before the Battle of Yavin, when Jedi Masters began to find that their connection to the Force had become nebulous or darkened. This change culminated with the ascension of Emperor Palpatine to power, when the Sith were finally able to gain complete control over the galaxy. In order to solidify his position of power, Palpatine destroyed the Jedi Order and erased all knowledge of the Jedi and the Force from public databanks. Any attempt to access data on subjects even tangentially related to the Force was banned, and such offenses were often swiftly - and fatally - punished. However, according to an ancient Jedi prophecy, this was also the time when the Chosen One would appear and bring balance back to the Force.

It was believed that Anakin Skywalker was the Chosen One, although he eventually fell under the sway of Darth Sidious and became the enforcer known as Darth Vader. The direct results of Anakin's fall led to the destruction of the Jedi Order and the formation of the Empire. However, his heroic actions during the Battle of Endor led to Palpatine's death, leaving only his son, Luke Skywalker, as the surviving Master of the Force. Skywalker struggled to understand the Force, and eventually took students to train with him. Although he taught his students of the light dark sides of the Force, he rarely found that the galactic situation was as simple to define. Over time, Luke realized that the Force was what you took from it, a lesson he had failed to grasp during his training with Yoda on the planet Dagobah. There, Yoda directed Luke into a tree-covered cavern that was instilled with the Dark Side of the Force. Luke took his weapons with him for protection, instead of trusting his own instincts, and he was forced to confront the fact that Darth Vader was his father.

During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, some twenty-five years after the Battle of Endor, the foundations on which the Jedi Knights based their knowledge of the Force were suddenly altered. There were several forms of life - primarily the ysalamiri of Myrkr - that could push back against the Force, but these creatures were assumed to live within the Force in some fashion. The Yuuzhan Vong, however, appeared as a void in the Force, neither projecting nor absorbing or repelling it. Many of the new Jedi Knights struggled with the concept of a race of beings which seemed to lack any contact with the Force, since it was believed that the Force was contained within all forms of life, even if it was in trace amounts. Jacen Solo was one of the first Jedi to accept the notion that the Force acted in many ways, without a true light or dark side, and that there were ways in which it could be attuned to at least recognize the alien invaders. The former Jedi Master Vergere was instrumental in guiding Jacen to this realization, having spent more than thirty years in the presence of the Yuuzhan Vong. After the surrender of the Yuuzhan Vong at Coruscant some five years after their invasion began, Jedi Master Skywalker contemplated this new understanding of the Force. It was not a simple delineation between light and dark, but a more profound definition of the ways in which good and evil fought for control of an individual. Ultimately, he chose not to return the Jedi to their roles as an unbiased police force serving only the "light side."

Luke reasoned that the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic were once a meditative order that was drawn deeper and deeper into the machinations of the Republic when its Chancellors called for their help in mediating disputes. As this call for help escalated into the battle legions of the Clone Wars, the Jedi became less interested in the nature of the Force and more interested in separating good and evil into light and dark halves to the Force. The Jedi of the Old Republic, according to Skywalker, lost sight of the fact that the Force moved through an individual, not from them. His new Jedi Order was predicated on the belief that the Force would provide its own guidance to each individual, who was bound to act in the best interests of the Force. Their own ideas of the Force changes a decade later, when Lumiya reappeared in the galaxy and began training Jacen Solo as a new Sith Lord. Her power was rooted in the Dark Side of the Force, despite her main cybernetic prostheses. She explained to Jacen that she, like his grandfather, did not lose their connection to the Force because of their injuries, as Emperor Palpatine once believed. Perception was as much a component as the midi-chlorians were, and any being who believed that they could be powerful could be trained to be so. Lumiya explained that Jacen was the culmination of a long search by Vergere, a search that included Lumiya herself, to find an individual who was mentally and physically strong enough to become the embodiment of the Dark Side of the Force. Jacen, however strong he was with the Force, failed to use it as the ancient Sith had, believing instead that the Dark Side was simply more useful for bringing the galaxy together. The Sith that followed him came to view Jacen's alter ego, Darth Caedus, as weak and unworthy of the title of Sith Lord. (E4, HTSB, E1, DMSH, VP, T, UF, NECH, LF3, CN2, CWWS, LLOW, CN3, FJ2)

Force-7
A code phrase sued by Lando Calrissian on Cloud City to indicate that it was time to fight back against the Imperials occupying the city. (E5N)

Force-bond
This was a deep-seated communion between two Force-sensitive individuals, in which the pair were able to acutely sense and feel what the other was experiencing. The sharing of experiences could be as simple as a shared emotion, or it could be as strong as feeling another being's pain through the bond. (LF4)

Force-bubble
This was a small, self-contained storage system that used a miniature force-field generator to create a sphere of energy around an object. Depending on the size of the generator, the force-bubble could contain any sort of object. Because the force-bubble produced a localized field of energy with a constant shape, the repelling power of the force field was often more powerful that the shields of a starship. (LCS)

Forcecuffs
see Force Cuffs (CN1)

Force-dead
This was a term used by many Jedi during the Yuuzhan Vong War to describe the way that an individual Yuuzhan Vong appeared in the Force. Where most other beings had a distinct presence in the Force, the Yuuzhan Vong were essentially blank, which made them hard to detect. (DTO, DTR)

Force-dome
This was a localized form of defensive shielding, created during the last decades of the Old Republic as a security system for remote outposts. The force-dome used a collection crystals - not unlike those used in the construction of a lightsaber - to generate a hemisphere of protective energy. Its size could be modulated by the amount of power and the number of crystals used, but was usually limited to a few square miles in surface area. The shield produced by the force-dome ws capable of repelling even the heaviest of projectile weapons, but coyuld eventually be pierced by ion-type weapons. (MJH)

Force-eater
This was an uncommon term used to describe a Stennes Shifter. (SWJ12)

Force-flash
This was the term used by the Jedi Knight and the Sith to describe any concentrated burst of Force energy, often used to disorient an opponent or disable electronic equipment. (LF3)

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

Force-hibernation
see Hibernation Trance (DN1)

Force-hide
This was the term used by Jacen Solo to describe the technique he used to disappear from the Force, so that other Force-sensitive individuals could not discern him. The technique took some time to refine, and demanded a certain level of concentration to work effectively. Over time, Jacen discovered that he could hide in the Force without much effort, allowing him to carry out his covert missions without being discovered. (LF8)

Forceling
This was a derogatory term used by the Sith Lords who served under Darth Krayt to describe a member of the Imperial Knights. Many of the Sith believed that the Imperial Knights were not as skilled as the Jedi Knights, despite the fact that the Jedi had been all but exterminated during the Massacre at Ossus. (SWLW)

Force-listening
This Theran technique allowed the user to hear conversations across great distances. (LF8)

Force-meld
This was the name given to the uniting of several Jedi Knights through the Force, a technique which was developed by the Jedi during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. A number of Jedi Knights joined their minds together within the Force, drawing strength from each other and acting as a single, powerful entity. The technique was originally attempted by the strike team sent to Myrkr to destroy the voxyn queen, and further refined by Saba Sebatyne. When used to coordinate the actions of an army during battle, this technique was known as the battle-meld. (Y, EGF)

Force-opaque
This was a term used to describe any race of being that was unaffected by the Force. The Hutts and the Toydarians were examples of Force-opaque races. (CWWS)

Force-sense
This was the generic term used by many Force-sensitive beings to describe the ability of an individual to sense the presence of another individual in their vicinity. Depending on the skill of the user, Force-sense could detect the presence of another being in the next room or across a distance. (LF2)

Force-sensitive
This was the common term used throughout the galaxy to describe any being whose midi-chlorian counts were high enough to give them a strong connection to the Force. Being a Force-sensitive individual did not automatically make on a Jedi Knight, but it gave the being the ability to do things other beings could not, such as predict events a short distance into the future. (DSTR)

Force-shield
This was one of the most basic of techniques that were taught to users of the Force. During the era of the Old Republic, it was taught by both the Sith and the Jedi Knights as a way to defend oneself from attack. By wrapping oneself in a Force-shield, an individual could deflect Force-directed actions that were initiated by another Force user, such as a Force push. (DBPD)

Force-signature
This was the term used to describe the aura projected by any Force-sensitive individual into the Force itself. Most Jedi were trained to be able to detect another Jedi's Force-signature, in order to help them locate each other during missions. Because the presence of the Force in any individual was largely determined by the midi-chlorian count in their cells, every living being produced a Force-signature of some strength. However, the aura was much more difficult to focus on when an individual was not trained as a Jedi. (OF)

Force-vision
This was term used by Jedi and Sith alike to describe an prescient vision an individual received from the Force itself. These powerful visions often came unbidden, simply flooding an individual's mind with images. (LF3)

For'deschel, Devan
This woman served as the mistress of ligthsabers at the Almas Academy, during the height of the Clone Wars. Master For'deschel originally trained under the tutelage of Mace Windu, and she was the first Jedi from outside the Cularin System to return to Almas after the disappearance of Cularin and its sudden reappearance. As the Clone Wars began to spread across the galaxy, Devan was one of the few Jedi to remain on Almas to continue the training of the students there. She was an expert in the Form V style of lightsaber combat, a style which had not been previously taught at Almas by Master Kirlocca. She also spent much of her free time investigating the disappearance of Cularin and the many aspects of the Sith artifact known as the darkstaff. During the early stages of the Clone Wars, she was attacked by a Separatist Jedi Killer, and suffered massive injuries to her arm before defeating it. The arm had to be replaced with a cybernetic prosthesis. When the call finally came for the Almas Academy to supply Jedi Knights and Masters to the troops of the Grand Army of the Republic, Master Devan was among the more vocal opponents of the order. (LFCW)

Fordo
This ARC Trooper was designated ARC-77 when he was decanted from the cloning facilities on Kamino. Trained for command, Captain Fordo led the group known as the Muunilinst 10 into battle with Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi. For this mission, Fordo was given the title of Task Force Commander, with the primary mission of capturing San Hill. He later proved that sheer firepower was often better than planning when he was deployed to Hypori to rescue the Jedi Knights who had been stranded their by General Grievous. Fordo was awarded the Chancellor's Service Medal for his actions on Hypori, but he refused to accept it for himself. Instead, he transferred it to trooper CT-43/002, who died on Muunilinst. (SWI84)

Fordon System
The Quarren pirate Jerresk was once spotted in this star system, shortly after the Battle of Endor. (WBC)

Fordox, Com
This distinguished man was the Senator from the planet Corellia, during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. (COD)

Fordrod, Tyew
This Polosich was a passenger on the Kuari Princess when it was hijacked by the Riders of the Maelstrom. (RM)

Fordwyn
This man supposedly served the Imperial Navy as a Captain, commanding the Victory-class Star Destroyer Valiant near Togoria, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Captain Fordwyn was on-hand to greet Dengar, Eron Stonefield, and Udin after they captured Han Solo on Togoria, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. However, when the bounty hunters landed to Tatooine to return Grubba the Hutt to his uncle, Jabba, it was Jabba who explained to the bounty hunters that they had been duped. Fordwyn was an Alliance officer, and his crew had intercepted Dengar's message to the Imperials regarding the capture of Solo. Thus, Solo remained a free man. (MIS8)

Foreck, Condren
A famous athlete from the planet Azbrian, Condren was also the heiress to her aging father's vast fortune. For this reason, she was approached by Lando Calrissian as his second choice for a rich wife. A pale, thin woman with frizzy hair and a whiny voice, Condren was approached by Frang Colgter and married him before Lando arrived on Azbrian. She failed to contact him before the wedding, and so Lando was forced to cross her off his list. (AC)

Foreign Intruder Defense Organism
This semi-organic droid defensive system, known as FIDO for short, was set up by Luke Skywalker and Admiral Ackbar on Anoth, to protect the infant children of Han Solo and Leia Organa Solo during the early years of the New Republic. The FIDO itself was a multi-tentacled, cyborged beast with plasteel claws, with a physical appearance that was modeled after Calamarian krakana. The FIDO had twenty-six individual claws, each with sophisticated sensors at the tips, and connected to the central body by a 100-meter-long flexisteel cable. The entire unit measured eight meters across, and was equipped with a variety of sensor and detection systems. If the base on Anoth was threatened, the caretaker of the Solo children, Winter, could activate the Foreign Intruder Defense Organism from a remote location, while securing her own position deep within. The success of the FIDO project was clearly evident when Caridan Ambassador Furgan traveled to Anoth, in an attempt to capture Anakin Solo and raise the boy to become the next galactic Emperor. Furgan brought with him several MT-AT spider walkers, which easily negotiated the mountainous terrain that protected the base. Upon activation, the FIDO destroyed half of Furgan's assault force before being overwhelmed, stalling his advance and allowing reinforcements from the Republic to arrive and take care of the rest. Note that the nickname FIDO is a reference to the Star Wars Echo on FIDONet by Kevin Anderson. (COTF, EGD)

Forensics Droid
This was the generic term used to describe any specially-built droids that were used by police and law enforcement agencies to investigate a crime scene and gather physical evidence. The use of forensics droids helped to ensure that there was no question about the veracity and viability of the evidence that was collected. Each forensics droid was essentially a self-contained unit, and any evidence collected from a crime scene was processed within its sealed shell. The results of its analyses could be displayed remotely, allowing the evidence inside the shell to be preserved. In cases where direct manipulation of the evidence was required, or when the courts issued the required mandates, the droid could be opened up and its evidence could be examined by organic beings. (LF8)

Foreseen, The
This was the name given to the being who was prophesied to free the beings under the control of Lord Gar-Oth. Unknown to Yoshi Raph-Elan, The Foreseen was also prophesied to be a woman. It turned out that The Foreseen was actually Princess Lourdes. (SWS)

Foresight
This New Republic surveyor ship was destroyed when it tried to recover parts from an abandoned Imperial cruiser. The cruiser's automatic firing sensors were still active, despite the damage it had taken, and fired on the Foresight, causing it to explode. (BTS)

Forest Father
According to the Ewoks, the Forest Father was the primary caretaker of the forests, having been given that due by the Great Spirit of the Forest. (AT)

Forest Honey
This was a form of honey created by the Wookiees. (RD)

Forest Kinrath
This species of predatory spider was native to the planet Kashyyyk. (KOTOR)

Forest Mite
This parasitic insect was native to the wooded areas of Rori. (SWG2P)

Forest Moon of Endor
The life-supporting, second satellite of the gas giant Endor, found in the Moddell Sector, this moon had a widely-varied, temperate climate. The moon had a 18-hour day, and rotated with Endor around their common sun in about 402 standard days. The Endor System was located some 43,300 light-years from the galactic core. Due to the out-of-the-way location of the planet Endor, the Forest Moon became something of a desert island in space. Its breathable atmosphere allowed nearly any race to land there, in the event their ship got into trouble while off the normal hyperspace routes. This happened more often than not, as evidenced by the diversity of sentient lifeforms that called the Forest Moon of Endor their homeworld. As its name indicated, forests abounded on the moon, broken here and there by rocky wastes and small deserts. The moon's low gravity allowed the trees to grow to incredible heights.

This moon was the home of many indigenous species, including the Ewoks and the Yuzzum, as well as a number of dishomed races like the Marauder subspecies of Sanyassan and the Jindas. The fact that many of these races seemed to have arrived on the Forest Moon when starships crashed there earned the moon the nickname the "desert island in space." Although scouts working for the Empire were often credited with discovering the out-of-the-way moon, circumstantial evidence indicates that several wayward starships were lost in the area as many as 1,110 years before the Battle of Yavin. The Empire chose the moon as the construction sight for the second Death Star, betting that the remote location would keep it hidden from the rest of the galaxy until Emperor Palpatine was ready to leak information on the location to the Alliance. The Empire placed a manned bunker and a shield generator on the moon to help guard the battle station during its construction, giving rise to the Imperial monicker of the Sanctuary Moon. It was believed that a vast wealth of ores could be found on the moon, which were mined by the Empire. However, much of the mining was done on other worlds in the Moddell Sector, and processed ores were then transported to the Forest Moon. These mining operations were significantly reduced when the New Republic was formed.

The New Republic held the Forest Moon of Endor with a high regard, since it was the site of the Alliance's victory over the Empire during the Battle of Endor. Luke Skywalker set the black armor of Darth Vader ablaze in a funeral pyre on the moon, and a great celebration was held there to honor those who died in the war. Skywalker also discovered that a powerful nexus of dark side energy had formed in orbit around the Forest Moon of Endor, presumably at the point in space where Emperor Palpatine's body had been destroyed during the Battle of Endor. However, the destruction of the second Death Star resulted in several large pieces of debris falling to the moon's surface. Astrophysicists and planetary ecologists spent many years debating how the Forest Moon survived a greater catastrophe, since it was so close to the explosion of the Death Star. Whatever the reasons, the Forest Moon was spared any further destruction, and remained a viable world. The new Jedi Order formed by Luke Skywalker made a temporary base of operations beneath a large section of debris, during the months that followed the Battle of Kuat and the withdrawal of the Jedi Order from the Galactic Alliance.

Note that no planet was seen in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, and the Star Wars: Return of the Jedi novelization indicates that the planet being destroyed eons ago. However, the Ewoks films definitely show a clouded world around which the moon orbits, and The Truce at Bakura mentions a dead planet. The Adventures of Teebo describes Endor as a planet. The Bounty Hunters: Aurra Sing says that the Forest Moon was sometimes simply referred to as Endor. (E6, DFRSB, EA, BFE, TB, DA, AT, ISU, BHAS, GMR9, IWST, LF7, OWS, FJ3)

Forest of Faithfulness
This low, forested area of the planet Ylesia was located near the Flowered Plains, just outside of Colony One. (TPS)

Forest Slice-hound
This subspecies of slice-hound was native to the forests of Corellia. (GQRG)

Forest Stalker
This was a subspecies of gurreck that was native to the Forest Moon of Endor, where it lived and hunted in the dense forests. (SWG2P)

Forethought
This continent, one of two on the planet Ropagi II, was located on the planet's western hemisphere. Like its counterpart, Afterthought, the continent was amazingly flat, and covered with huge expanses of grassy plains broken by urban centers. Those native Ropagu who turn their minds to the future of their planet live on this continent. (TSK)

Forfra Moss
This unusual form of moss grew in underground caverns and grottoes on the planet Almas. (WOTC)

Forfur
This was a common name among the Talz race. (UANT)

Forge, Drathan
This young man, the great-nephew of Inyri Forge, worked as a mechanic at the Calrissian-Nunb Mines on the planet Kessel, during the years that followed the end of the Second Galactic Civil War. In addition to his skills as a mechanic, Drathan was also a competent pilot, and planned to attend a flight academy to further his education. He served as part of the ground crew that assisted the pilots who answered Lando Calrissian's call for help, after a collection of strange explosives were discovered beneath the surface of Kessel. As part of Rearmament Team Epsilon, Drathan and a loader droid known as J4 helped keep the pilots' starfighters loaded with missile. Unfortunately, they were cornered by a bogey and a huge energy spider, and J4 sacrificed itself to ensure that Drathan reached safety. He was eventually rescued by Han and Leia Solo, and carried back to the surface aboard the Millennium Falcon. During their escape from the caverns of Kessel, Drathan helped comfort the Solo's granddaughter, Allana, who had accompanied Han and Leia on the mission. (FJ1)

Forge, Inyri
A native of the planet Kessel, this woman was Lujayne Forge's sister, and she was remarkably similar to Lujayne in appearance. She had just as much promise as Lujayne did, but felt that she never got her parents' support in anything. She rebelled, and joined up with Zekka Thyne while he was imprisoned on Kessel. She dyed a forelock of her hair blue, to match the patches on Thyne's skin, and became his lover and his spice cutter. In this capacity, Inyri was responsible for dosing the spice that Thyne was able smuggle into consumable portions. When the Rogue Squadron negotiated with Moruth Doole for the release of Thyne, Inyri went along with him, rather than returning to her parents. She later realized that Thyne was never going to give her the respect she so desperately wanted, and she shot him when he tried to expose the Rogues on Coruscant. Inyri remained with the squadron for many years, becoming one of the group's primary leaders. Gavin Darklighter, upon assuming command of the Squadron, named Inyri his second-in-command, and Inyri took up the position of Rogue Five. She remained with the military for many years, earning the respect of her peers and her commanding officers through her ability to eliminate the enemy's starfighters. She eventually retired from active duty in the wake of the Yuuzhan Vong War, but kept up her piloting skills. Thus, when Lando Calrissian put out a call for independent pilots to assist with saving Kessel from destruction, Inyri swiftly volunteered. Her parents and siblings had remained on Kessel, but were evacuated when earthquakes began threatening the mining operations there. (WG, DTO, FJ1)

Forge, Kassar
This man was Lujayne Forge's father. Kassar originally came to Kessel during the early years of the New Order, in an effort to try and reform the criminals there. He voluntarily remained on the moon following the Battle of Endor, believing that he still could make a difference in the lives of the criminals. When Lando Calrissian and Nien Nunb took control of the spices mines and turned them into a legitimate business, Kassar and his family found gainful employment, although they were evactuated to the Garrison Moon when the planet began experiencing severe groundquakes, some three years after the end of the Second Galactic Civil War. (WG, FJ1)

Forge, Lujayne
A native of Kessel, she was a member of Wedge Antilles' Rogue Squadron. Her father was an Old Republic corrections officer who went to Kessel to teach inmates how to better re-integrate back into society upon their release. There, he met and fell in love with Lujayne's mother, an inmate at the time. Together they got married and had a number of children. They remained on Kessel when Lujayne left to join the New Republic. She felt that Corran Horn held this against her, since he was part of a Security team that toured Kessel. Forge was killed on Talasea, when Kirtan Loor's troops infiltrated the Rogues' base there. She never awakened when the stormtroopers entered the compound, and was shot in her sleep. (XWN)

Forge, Myda
Myda was the wife of Kassar Forge, and the mother of Lujayne and Inyri Forge. She stayed by her husband's side when he took a job on the planet Kessel during the early years of the New Order, teaching the criminals imprisoned at Kessel how to reform themselves. She would not have chosen Kessel as a place to live, but her love for her husband kept her there for many years to follow. When the planet began to experience severe earthquakes, some three years after the end of the Second Galactic Civil War, Myda and Kassar were evacuated to the Garrison Moon. (WG, FJ1)

Forger
This Imperial-class Star Destroyer suppressed rebellious activity on Gra Ploven during the reign of Emperor Palpatine. It's commander was Davith Sconn, who - under orders from Moff Dureya - fired multiple turbolaser batteries into the planet's water supplies, creating super-hot steam which boiled the native Ploven alive. (SOL)

Forging
This was the process by which the seeds of the boras tree of Zonama Sekot were split open by lightning and charged with energy. From this point, the seeds were annealed into new boras trees. The development of Sekotan starships mimicked this process, as seed-partners were allowed to grow before they were filled with energy and modified into seed-disks. (RP)

Forgofshar Desert
A desert located on Carida, it was used to acclimate Imperial inductees to harsh climates. (TME)

Forgotten Spire
This manufactured spire rose from the rocky outcroppings of the planet Dathomir, although few natives remembered their origins or purpose. Explorers and archaeologists discovered that these spires bore a striking resemblance to the Forgotten Spires found on Corellia. (SWGAL)

Forgotten Spires
This collection of three manufactured spires rose from the plains of Corellia, although few natives remembered their origins or purpose. Explorers and archaeologists discovered that these spires bore a striking resemblance to the Forgotten Spire found on Dathomir. (SWGAL)

Fori, Vett
This short, tough-looking woman served as the chief supervisor of mining operations on Oseon 2795 when Lando Calrissian stopped there, during the early years of the New Order. Her disarming smile often caught men offguard, as did her propensity to smoke a cigar. (LCM)

Forim
This was a common name given to male Duros children. The name Forim came from the term meaning "capable" or "dependable". (GCG)

Fork, The
This was a strategy used in the game of dejarik, in which a player moved a single gamepiece into a position to attack two or more of an opponent's pieces. The opponent was left with a single choice: which of their pieces to lose. Eventually, the term "The Fork" became more integrated into normal conversation to indicate any situation in which an individual must choose between two or more disasters. (SHPT)

Forked
Derived from the dejarik game, in which The Fork was a strategy used to force an opponent to choose which gamepiece they would lose, being "forked" meant that an individual was faced with a decision in which they had to choose which of two or more disasatrous situations would not occur. Regardless of the choice, something disastrous would result. (SHPT)

Form I
Known as Shii-Cho, this was the simplest form of lightsaber combat techniques studied by the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic, and was generally considered the first form used by the original creators of lightsabers. Sometimes called the ideal form, Form I used horizontal side-swipes and parries made with the blade of the lightsaber held upright to push the point of an enemy's blade away during a side-to-side attack. If the attack was a downward slash aimed at the head, Form I simply reversed the motion, with a horizontally-held lightsaber being moved up and down to deflect a blow. All the basic ideals of attack, parry, target zones, and practice drills were created with the Form I style. (VD2, SWI62, SWI68)

Form II
Known as Makashi, this ancient Jedi Knight lightsaber combat technique was developed when pikes and staves were more common in the galaxy. Form II emphasized fluid motion and anticipation of a weapon being swung at its target, allowing the Jedi to attack and defend with minimal effort. Although many Jedi historians considered Form II to be the ultimate refinement in lightsaber-to-lightsaber combat, it was dropped in favor of Form III combat when blaster weapons became prevalent in the galaxy. Since the Battle of Ruusan, there were only two notable individuals to practice this technique: Count Dooku and Aurra Sing. (VD2, SWI62, SWI68, EGF)

Form III
Known as Soresu, this was a lightsaber dueling technique developed by the Jedi Knights, after blaster weapons became the normal weapon of choice among criminals and underworld beings. Unlike Form II combat, which was developed to work against another lightsaber, Form III was most effective in anticipating and deflecting blaster fire. It stressed quick reflexes and fast positional transition, in order to overcome the rapidity with which a blaster could be fired. It was essentially a defensive technique, emphasizing the non-aggressive Jedi philosophy while reducing the exposed areas of their bodies. Because of these attributes, many Jedi - especially those who practiced Form III - felt that it was the one form that required the deepest connection to the Force. In the wake of the death of Qui-Gon Jinn at the hands of Darth Maul, many Jedi turned away from the Form IV style of open, acrobatic fighting and took up Form III in order to minimize the risk of injury or death at the hands of an opportunistic opponent. (VD2, SWI62, SWI68, MJH)

Form IV
Known as Ataru, this was one of the more recent lightsaber combat techniques, developed by the Jedi Knights during the last decades of the Old Republic. It emphasized acrobatic strength and power in wielding the blade, attributes which were frowned upon by many traditional Jedi Knights and Masters. It found a niche among the eager Padawan learners of the time, who believed that the Jedi needed to become more involved in rooting out crime and evil and eradicating it. This Form was practiced by Qui-Gon Jinn, although his death at the hands of Darth Maul exposed the weakness of Form IV in defending a Jedi's body. Yoda, however, practiced Form IV with such speed that, when coupled with his small size, left an enemy with no undefended parts of his body. (VD2, SWI62, SWI68)

Form V
This was one of the seven primary forms of lightsaber combat developed by the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. Form V was developed by a group of Jedi Masters who felt that Form III was too passive, while Form IV was not powerful enough. It addressed the shortcomings of both forms in two variations, known as Shien and Djem so, which allowed a Jedi to defeat what may have appeared to be and undefeatable. The Shien variation was developed for use against blaster fire, which could be deflected back at the enemy who fired the weapon. The Djem So variation was used in lightsaber combat, and employed techniques that allowed a Jedi to turn and opponent's attacks against them.

Despite these two forms, many Jedi felt that Form V lacked any sort of mobility, and forced a Jedi to defend themselves without being able to shift positions. Other argued that Form V focused too heavily on the power and strength necessary to overcome an opponent, claiming that it directed inappropriate focus on hurting another being. Others claimed that Form V was simply a way to "achieve peace through superior firepower." (VD2, SWI62, SWI68, E3N, EGF)

Form VI
Known as Niman, this was one of the most advanced of the seven primary forms of lightsaber combat developed by the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic. At the time of the Battle of Geonosis, Form VI was the standard in Jedi fighting techniques, emphasizing the use of techniques from Forms I, III, IV, and V in overall moderation. Many Jedi Masters considered it the "diplomat's form", since the user used their knowledge of political strategy and negotiation - along with their own perceptions - to reach a peaceful decision with minimal bloodshed. Many Jedi skilled in Form VI techniques had already spent at least ten years studying the other four Forms, an aspect that meny Masters felt was too demanding of the Jedi's time in regards to its benefits on the battlefield. (VD2, SWI62, SWI68)

Form VII
Known as Juyo, this lightsaber combat technique was one of the most demanding of all the forms developed by the Jedi Knights. Only through the learning of several other forms can a Jedi begin to understand Form VII, which involved so much physical combat ability that its training brought a Jedi very close to the Dark Side of the Force. Jedi Master Mace Windu studied the Form VII technique, and developed the Vaapad variation. To master Form VII, a Jedi had to employ bold movements and be more kinetic than in any other form. Form VII employed the use of overwhelming power directed through unconnected, staccato movements that kept an opponent continually off-guard. (VD2, SWI62, SWI68, EGF)

Form Zero
Originally defined by Jedi Master Yoda to describe the lightsaber technique of Felanil Baaks, Form Zero became the basis for the instruction of lightsaber combat. In its simplest form, Form Zero was the art of wielding a lightsaber which had not been ignited. While it seemed silly to many Padawan learners, the underlying message could not be ignored. In order for a Jedi to protect and serve the galaxy, they must know when to ignite their lightsaber for combat, and when to leave the weapon at his side. The understanding of another being's situation was key to the knowledge of right and wrong, and any student who could understand the necessity of Form Zero and use it to mediate a solution - without resorting to violence - was truly gifted with the Force. (LFCW)

Forma
This tall, bald-headed, dark-skinned man was a Captain with the Mining Guild, which rose to power in the wake of the deaths of Grand Admiral Thrawn and Emperor Palpatine's clones. He was in command of the mining ship Draisini, and was dispatched to negotiate a deal between the Guild and representatives of the Empire and the New Republic. Forma forced the will of the Guild on both parties, then left the negotiations. At the conclusion of the negotiations, Forma picked up a secret cargo along with the usual load of ores. Shortly after leaving, the Draisini was attacked by pirates led by Sol Mon. They were working for Grappa the Hutt, and secured the ship and took Forma into custody. He was tortured and bled of information, then given to the Zanibar for one of their ceremonies. Forma was eventually killed by the Zanibar. (CE2)

Forma
This was one of the most common human surnames encountered in the galaxy. (GCG)

Formal Declaration of Rebellion
This was a more proper name for the Declaration of Rebellion that was signed by the leaders of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. (XWP)

Formayj
This ancient Yao smuggler made a living in Esau's Ridge, on Tholatin, brokering information. Over the centuries, he had developed an intricate network of informants to supply accurate data. In addition, Formayj had an excellent memory, and never forgot good information. He was able to provide Chewbacca with several valuable documents during the Black Fleet Crisis, including a map of the Koornacht Cluster, an Imperial autopsy report on three Yevetha, transmissions from a New Republic patrol drone operating in the Koornacht near Wakiza, and the shield and sensor codes for several of the Imperial warships under Yevethan control. (TT)

Formbi
This Chiss male, whose full name was Chaf'orm'bintrano, served as the Aristocra of the Chaf family for more than 40 years. His tenure began some time before the onset of the Clone Wars, and he continued to serve during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy and the Chiss society's struggle against the Colony. Short in stature, Formbi also served as an officer serving the Empire of the Hand during the years leading up to the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. In the wake of the Battle of Naboo, Aristocra Formbi spent a great deal of time trying to enforce the laws and regulations of the Chiss, and was often at odds with the actions of then Force Commander Thrawn. Thus, when Thrawn disabled the massive starship Outbound Flight, Formbi believed that he had finally found a way to remove Thrawn from the military. He even threatened to revoke Thrawn's status as Trial-born. His efforts went for naught, however, after Outbound Flight was able to escape and the threat of a Vagaari attack was averted. Decades later, Formbi served as the commander of the Chiss exploration force that discovered the remains of the Outbound Flight Project in the redoubt. He requested that Jedi Master Luke Skywalker be contacted immediately, so that he could decide what to do with the remains. However, the timing of his message and the schedule for meeting with Luke made it clear that Formbi only wanted the Jedi involved, and not the New Republic. However, Luke and his wife, Mara Jade Skywalker, discovered that Formbi's expedition was made up from a wide variety of interests, including Dean Jinzler posing as a New Republic ambassador, and Chak Fel representing the Empire of the Hand. When he was confronted with the knowledge that he had spoken at length to Jorj Car'das upon Jinzler's arrival, Formbi merely explained that they had been discussing each other's credentials and the details of the Outbound Flight mission. After meeting Jorad Pressor aboard the remains of Outbound Flight, Formbi was forced to demand that the Survivors leave the Redoubt, since it was considered part of Chiss space. Pressor refused, and a series of negotiations began between the Chiss and the Outbound Flight Colony over possible reparations and a settlement. These talks were cut short when Bearsh and his comrades revealed themselves to be Vagaari pirates. The parties were split up, with Jinzler and Formbi trying to survive against the initial attacks of Bearsh's wolvkils. During their escape, Formbi was badly mauled by a wolvkil. Feesa and Jinzler struggled to keep him conscious despite the copious amounts of blood he lost, but they were able to reach Mara in time to save him. Later, Mara discovered that Formbi had known about the Vagaari all along, from his meeting with Car'das at Crustai. Despite recognizing the threat the Vagaari posed to the mission - not to mention the entire Chiss race - Formbi allowed them on the mission in an effort to eliminate Bearsh and Estosh. As long as he allowed the Vagaari to make the first move, and Chiss retaliation would be swift and strong, and ensured that the Chiss would not go against military doctrine of avoiding pre-emptive strikes. After the Vagaari Wars and the struggle against the Yuuzhan Vong, Formbi was one of the many Chiss who watched the expansion of the Colony with trepidation. He was placed in charge of the Chiss Intelligence team that investigated the Colony, and was later sent to meet with Luke Skywalker to discuss what the Jedi were able to learn. It was Formbi's belief that the elimination of Raynar Thul would put an end to the Colony's growth, but Luke feared that this would simply enrage the Kind and cause them to launch a retaliatory attack. Eventually, Luke came to understand thatm despite his motivations, Formbi was correct in assuming that Thul needed to be eliminated. However, he was outraged to learn that Master Skywalker had not killed Thul, but had captured him and returned him to the Jedi facility on Ossus. Formbi was forced to accept Luke's assurances that the Colony had been destroyed, before he returned to Csilla, but managed to secure an agreement with the Galactic Alliance that it would assist in any conflict that might arise from a resurgence in the Colony's population.

This type of chair was created with a special material that conformed to the user's physical shape, providing an ergonomically comfortable position. (MBS)

Form-chair
This generic term refers to any chair which molds itself to the user's body contours. (RD)

Formcot
This specialized piece of furniture was portable enough to provide a bed for the clone troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic, during the Clone Wars. Despite the ease of transportation, formcots were designed with special materials that conformed to the shape of the being who was sleeping on them, providing an exceptionally comfortable bed despite its humble appearance. (MBS)

Formcouch
This was a large piece of form-fitting furniture. Similar to a formchair, a formcouch adjusted its shape to meet the body shape of any being sitting or reclining on it. (CN3)

Formex
This surfacing material used on spaceport landing pads and on roads, on many planets found in the Corporate Sector of the galaxy. (HSE, HSL)

Formfit Chair
This was another name for a formchair. (CN2)

Formidable
This was one of the many Victory-class Star Destroyers which were still active, as part of the Imperial Navy, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (XVT)

Formidable
This was one of the many Strike-class cruisers that made up the front lines of the Imperial Naval fleet. (TIE)

Formos
This planet was located in the Outer Rim Territories, near the planet Kessel and the Maw. It was a typical backwater planet, although its proximity to Kessel made it a haven for spice smugglers. During the height of the Clone Wars, Formos was overtaken by Separatist forces when they deployed Scorpenek Annihilator Droids against the meager forces of the Grand Army of the Republic. (SWRPG2, MCI1, NEGD)

Forn
This was the sixth symbol in the Aurebesh script, and represents the Basic letter "f". (SWM)

Forn, Zelka
This man was a doctor who operated a medical facility in the Upper City of Taris, during the era of the Great Sith War. Zelka spent a great deal of time researching the cause of the rakghoul infection, and was aided when a group of Jedi Knights from the Endar Spire supplied a serum that had been created by the Sith to counteract the effect. (KOTOR)

Forna Tutha Star Probe
This archaeological relic was discovered by a scientist named Bartleton. Unfortunately for Bartelton, one member of his team inadvertently triggered a fire inside the probe, destroying it before he could recover it for further inspection. (TT)

Fornax
This planet, located in the Glythe Sector of the galaxy, was famous for the Five Fire Rings of Fornax, which were five rings of solar prominence which encircle it. (E4N, SWI78)

Forno, Jace
A female Corellian pilot working for Olag Greck, she pilots his personal shuttle. She was very thin and gaunt, with a patch over her right eye and a strip of jet-black hair cut down the center of her head. She was called upon to help Greck overtake the ship stolen by IG-88. The Phlutdroid uses a nearby asteroid to shake the pursuit. Forno later became Movo Brattakin's chief of security on Nar Shaddaa, where she destroyed Unit Zed and blasted C-3PO's leg off while capturing the droids. (DRO)

Fornow
This planet was annexed by the Epicanthix people. (SESB)

Forntarch
This carnivirous rodent was native to the swamps of Gorsh. They hid in the trees and attacked their prey by leaping in packs from their branches. The flesh of this creature was considered a delicacy, but they were too dangerous to have in the kitchen. (POC, PG1)

For'o
This Bothan Admiral served in the naval forces that defended his homeworld of Bothawui during the years following the Swarm War. Admiral For'o was dispatched as part of the Bothan war fleet that was commanded by Admiral Babo and sent to Kashyyyk, during the Battle of Kuat, to apprehend Jacen Solo and the Galactic Alliance's Fifth Fleet. The Confederation's forces also included ships from Corellia, Commenor, and Hutt Space, and found themselves fighting alongside the Wookiees and Jedi Knights who were defending Kashyyyk. (LF6)

Forr
This was a common name among the clone troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic, referring to the identification number of the clone. (RC66)

Forraderi
This stance, one of many positions used in the teras kasi martial artform, provided the warrior with a fluid position from which to move in any direction. (DMSH)

Forre Musa
This droid worked as a waiter at Zerria's Bar on Drall, during the years following the war against the Yuuzhan Vong. Despite its lowly status, Forre Musa nevertheless carried itself with a proper air, as befitted what it deemed as its true calling. In addition to serving drinks, Forre Musa would also deliver what it called "intelligent entertainment," which ranged from sparkling political commentary to its own literary sagas. The staff and patrons of Zerria's Bar tolerated the droid because it was prompt when serving drinks, although very few ever asked for much of its "entertainment." Thus, when the droid was shot by Mirta Gev some ten years after the end of the Yuuzhan Vong war, nobody got very upset about it. (LF2)

Forridel
This man was appointed privisional Governor of Corulag during the final stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. He was easily distinguished from most people by his foppish hats and the eyepatch he wore, which made him look like a holodrama star. When the alien invaders established control of the Perlemian Trade Route, the previous Corulag government quickly capitulated, hoping to avoid any ecological or technological damage. However, the Yuuzhan Vong quickly installed a puppet government and began to run the planet their own way. As wealthy individuals fled for free worlds and the lower classes erupted in rebellion, Forridel found himself actually wishing for the New Republic to take an interest in recapturing Corulag. His wish came true some five years into the invasion, after Zonama Sekot's sudden reappearance near Coruscant forced the Yuuzhan Vong to recall all their war fleets. The former governor was caught and hanged, and Forridel was installed in his place. Forridel provided General Wedge Antilles with information on the groundside situation, as well as data on the Pece Brigade that was fleeing Corulag. (UF)

Forrolow
This low-growing vine was native to the planet Ithor, where it was harvested for its green, melon-sized berries and leaves. (MIS7)

Forrth, Newar
This Twi'lek Jedi was one of the many heroes who hailed from the planet Ryloth. A member of the Nercathi clan, Newar Forrth led the Third Legion of Light to a victory during the Battle of Ruusan. However, during the battle, Newar Forrth was killed. His remained were cremated, and the ashes were formed into three crystalline idols in his likeness, which were returned to Ryloth after the war. (WOTC)

Forry
This was the nickname used by the ARC trooper designated CT-44/444, during the height of the Clone Wars. When he was assigned to the small group that was dispatched to Ord Cestus, some two years after the Battle of Geonosis, Forry was the only trooper who had any knowledge of the planet, having spent time in a nearby sector. Forry, like many of the other ARC troopers, held a measure of disdain for the Jedi Knights, especially after trooper CT-36/732 was defeated by the combat droid JK-13. With the trooper's defeat, Jedi Master Kit Fisto stepped forward to combat the droid, and eventuall defeated it. This, in Forry's mind, was simply showing off in front of the masses. Forry helped Kit Fisto and Nate train the commandos of the Desert Wind terrorist group, and was among the survivors who managed to escape their lair when Asajj Ventress sent a group of infiltration droids to destroy them. When Nate's body was not recovered, they feared that Nate had been killed, or had broken the Code and betrayed them all in the first place. (TCD)

Forscan VI
This planet, located on the edge of the Cron Drift, was one of the many planets that struggled to remain neutral during the height of the Clone Wars. This neutrality didn't stop an elite group of Separatist agents from establishing a training facility on the planet, a facility that was exposed when the settlers of Forscan VI complained to the Galactic Senate about the trouble it was causing. Some two years after the Battle of Geonosis, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker were dispatched to Forscan VI to eliminate the facility and restore order to the populace. Before their mission was completed, however, they were called back to Coruscant by an emergency message from Chancellor Palpatine. (TCD)

Forswoth, Melanda
This woman was an up-and-coming journalist on the planet Cularin, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. A former meteorologist on an obscure HoloNet newsfeed, she got her chance to make a name for herself when Yara Grugara left Eye on Cularin to do some investigation. Melanda's facial expressions and actions on-camera proved that she had been watching Grugara closely, as a sort of role model. Forswoth was allowed to take her place, and began a series of specials on the Carrite and their homeworld of Carrimon. After several abortive interviews, she encountered the humanoid known as Falsswon. He took exception to her superficial questions, and pulled a blaster out of his clothing. He shot the camera which had been taping the interview, and Forswoth was never seen again. The Cularin Central Broadcasting corporation later recovered the camera and its recordings, and aired them in an effort to help locate Falsswon. Just over a year later, Ryk Osentay was allowed to travel to Tolea Biqua to do a short piece on Riboga the Hutt, and his camerabeing was knocked over by a dazed-looking woman. Although Ryk was unaware of the incident, the camerabeing recognized the woman as Melanda. The camerabeing's quick actions allowed Melanda to be transported to a hospital for medical treatment, although Osentay later claimed that his crack reporting had led to Melanda's recovery. (LFCW)

Fort Cravus
This immense citadel, located in the tropical city of Nurrale, on the planet Esseles, was the base of operations for Lord Cravus during the earliest days of civilization on the planet. As Cravus' empire eventually died out, the Fort remained standing, aging very little over time. Fort Cravus was later renovated and turned into a museum, displaying artifacts and information from Lord Cravus' reign.

Much of the main compound was protected by rammed-earth walls, with a configuration that resembled a six-pointed star when viewed from above. At each point of the star was a ball-turret-mounted blaster cannon, giving the inhabitants complete coverage of their airspace. Subsurface missile batteries and other hidden defenses ensured the protection of the Fort. (RAG)

Situated on the northern edge of the Jundland Wastes, just northwest of Mos Eisley, it survived until a group of Sandpeople attacked it some 95 years before the Battle of Yavin. It was abandoned afterwards, and the Sandpeople were given the nickname of Tusken Raiders because of the attack. They were also forever marked as bloodthirsty savages by the human settlers of Tatooine, even though a similar attack never occurred again. During the height of the Galactic Civil War, a group of moisture farmers and mercenaries was able to briefly retake Fort Tusken from the Sandpeople, but word of the fighting reached other clans. In swift measure, the Sandpeople recaptured the fort in a bloody battle. (GG7, SWTJ, SWDB, SOT, SWGAL)

Forte and his Padawan, Deran Nalual, were injured in a firefight with the clone troopers who had been serving them obeyed the command to execute Order 66. Recognizing the situation was going to be dire for the Jedi, Forte and Nalual fled to Dellalt, where they issued a 913 code transmission to any Jedi in the area. Their call was answered by several other survivors, and the group fled into the stars aboard a stolen SX troop transport. They were pursued by a squad of clone troopers, who were driven off when they were located by Shryne's team. The group managed to survive a brief stopover on Jaguada's moon, before Olee Starstone set off on her own, and Shryne remained with the crew of the Drunk Dancer. Although Forte had deferred to Shryne's leadership, he chose to follow Starstone's lead and set off with her to locate any other surviving Jedi. On Kashyyyk, the group of Jedi hoped to learn more about the fates of Yoda, Quinlan Vos, and Luminara Unduli, but were instead confronted by Darth Vader himself.

All but Commander Brolis were shot and killed, and Brolis was left to call for reinforcements while holed up inside. The only being sent to extract him was Jedi Master Yoda, who defeated a particularly cunning Hailfire Droid in order to protect their escape. (SS3, NECH)

Fortressa
This Lucrehulk-class freighter was one of the many vessels that had once served the Trade Federation, during the era of the Clone Wars. The Fortressa was one of a handful of these ring-shaped ships that were acquired by the growing Alliance to Restore the Republic, which used them as transports and military vessels. However, because the Alliance lacked sufficient financial backing, the Fortressa was only lightly armed.

Shortly before the Battle of Yavin, the crew of the Fortressa launched an attack on the first Death Star. They were unaware that the space station's primary weapon had been brought online, and was ready for testing. Grand Moff Tarkin ordered the weapon test-fired on the Fortressa, and his gunners set up for a low-powered blast. Even at just four percent of its total power capacity, the Death Star's superlaser vaporized the Fortressa on the first attempt. (DSTR)

Fortris
This young Jedi Knight was dispatched to the planet Balmorra, during the months leading up to the Sacking of Coruscant, to try and displace the Sith Empire's forces on the planet. (TOP2)

Fortuna, Bib
An Una clan Twi'lek, Bib Fortuna was most infamous as Jabba the Hutt's advisor and major domo. Little was known about his background, although it was known that he was among the first Twi'leki to realize that the ryll spice found on Ryloth could be sold at a large profit throughout the galaxy. Fortuna's actions drew the attention of the Empire, which descended on Ryloth and took the Twi'lek as slaves. Fortuna was condemned by his peers, his family name was disgraced and its holdings seized, and he was made an outcast and a fugitive. Fortuna began his revenge by stealing valuables from high-ranking Twi'leki officials, and was in the right place at the right time when Jabba came to Ryloth in search of slaves. Fortuna had simply planned to steal jewels and other valuables from other Twi'leki, but instead found the rubble and destruction caused by Jabba's slavers. In the rubble, he found Nat Secura and took the child to Jabba, claiming that the Hutt would find amusement in controlling the last survivor of a great Twi'lek house. It was for these reasons that the Twi'leks pronounce his name Bib'fortuna, which twists the meaning of his true name, Bibfort'una, to indicate the evil he represents. Jabba had taken Fortuna as an employee and Secura as a slave back to Tatooine. Fortuna's desire for power kept him in good standing with the crimelord. Fortuna and Bidlo Kwerve were in constant competition for Jabba's attention. When the rancor was discovered in the Tatooine desert by Jawas, Fortuna saw that Kwerve might have a better hold on Jabba's good side. Fortuna had to find a way to get Kwerve out of the picture, for it was Kwerve who had recovered the creature from the Jawas. When the two presented the rancor to Jabba, Kwerve puffed himself up in an effort to win Jabba's favor. Fortuna used it against him, making it seem like bravado and showmanship. Jabba disapproved, and sent Kwerve to the rancor as its first meal. Fortuna's first step toward fame and fortune had landed successfully. During his employment under Jabba, Fortuna's main duty was to scout out any plots against Jabba, and warn the Hutt of them. He also served as a "talent scout" for Jabba, and was responsible for bringing Oola and other dancers to Jabba's palace. In reality, Fortuna was looking out for himself. He used many of the plots as smoke screens to cover his own plots. Fortuna had grown rapidly disgusted with the Hutt, and secretly plotted with the B'omarr monks that lived in Jabba's palace against him. He hated the monks almost as much as he hated Jabba, for the disembodied brothers always frightened him. His first encounter with a "brain walker" had led to his firing a blaster at it, killing the disembodied brain. However, Fortuna realized that the monks had built the castle, and they still roamed it, keeping a great deal of secrets. Fortuna, however, was not out to claim Jabba's position as crimelord; he simply wanted to acquire enough power and wealth to return to his homeworld of Ryloth and conquer it. He planned to use Nat Secura as a sign to the Twi'lek that Fortuna was the only choice as ruler. When Luke Skywalker rescued Han Solo and Princess Leia had killed Jabba, Fortuna fled to the cargo hold of Jabba's sail barge and fled in a hidden skiff. He set off a thermal detonator as he left, ensuring the destruction of the crimelord. All of Fortuna's planned crumbled to dust, though, following Jabba's death. He returned to the palace, only to be overcome by the B'omarr monks. They removed his brain from his body and placed it in a nutrient jar, allowing Fortuna to forever contemplate his actions. He continued to monitor many of his secret accounts, and kept alive the hope that he and Nat would be rescued and placed into cloned Twi'lek bodies. Eventually, Bib Fortuna's brain walker was captured by Firith Olan, who hoped to wring information on Jabba's criminal empire for his own use. Fortuna bided his time, until Firith Olan was injured by Marl Semtin at Eidolon Base. Fortuna managed to drag Olan's body back to Jabba's palace, where he had the B'omarr monks swap their brains. Fortuna then went into seclusion, gathering his strength to make a future bid for power. Using his own resources, those of Jabba that he was able to recover, and those of Firith Olan, Bib Fortuna began to grow more powerful. In an effort to infiltrate Lady Valarian's holdings, he also began to develop a relationship with Valarian's chosen successor, Shiri'ani. (E6, TJP, KT, XWBT, IG1, SOT)

Fortuna, Kep
This Twi'lek was the city manager of the High City of Refuge, on the planet Kidron, at the height of the New Order. He fled to Kidron after visiting his distant relative, Bib Fortuna, at Jabba the Hutt's palace on Tatooine. A collection of Jabba's jewels somehow found their way into his pockets, although Kep never found out why. He decided that running away was preferable to turning them in, and so he sold them to book passage to Kidron. There, he became a member of the High City Council, and eventually bribed his way to the position of city manager. He was considered a sneaky businessman, and those who met him were best to warily tolerate his presence. (PG3)

Fortuna, Komad
This ancient Twi'lek lived on the planet Tatooine, many thousands of years before the Galactic Civil War. Komad and his partner made a living as big-game hunters, until his partner panicked and was killed in a krayt dragon cave. A group of Jedi Knights, searching for clues as to the whereabouts of the Star Forge and Darth Malak, helped Komad defeat a krayt dragon that had been causing damage to his homestead. As a reward, he presented them with a krayt dragon pearl. Within the lair of the dragon, the Jedi were able to recover a piece of the Star Map. Later, Komad began to feel guilty about killing the dragon, and left Tatooine. He ended up on Kashyyyk, but was unable to make it feel like a home. (KOTOR)

Fortuna, Ob
This Twi'lek, a distant relative of Bib Fortuna, served Cradossk as the majordomo of the old Bounty Hunters Guild. Just as oily and conniving as his relative, Ob Fortuna worked behind the scenes with several other hunters, including Cradossk's own son, Bossk, to overthrow the Trandoshan and take some profit in the effort. Ob had meticulously dug out peepholes in the walls surrounding Cradossk's throne in the Guild's main headquarters, allowing him to monitor the old Trandoshan's activities. While not the only majordomo Cradossk ever had, Ob Fortuna had remained in position the longest by ensuring that his master's wishes were always met. However, after Cradossk was killed by his own son, Bossk, Ob Fortuna fled the Guild and tried to find work somewhere else. He booked transport with N'dru Suhlak, hoping to reach a safe haven before one of the bounty hunters discovered his treacherous ways. Unfortunately, Suhlak was apprehended by Boba Fett near Uhltenden and boarded. Ob Fortuna was so scared of being taken back to the bounty hunters that he strangled himself with a piece of cable before he could be taken by Fett. However, Fett's bounty was paid whether Fortuna was dead or alive. Fett took the Twi'lek's head for proof, and blew the rest of the body out of an airlock into space. (MA, SLS)

Fosh
This avian species of bipeds was distinguished by their reverse-jointed legs and their piebald coloration. Because of their unusual bone structure, Fosh were unable to fly, despite their avian ancestors. Fosh had unusual, four-fingered hands, with each talon-tipped digit being fully-opposable to all the others. The skull of the average Fosh was crowned by a pair of twisted antennae, and their faces were dominated by a ridge of hard skin that changed color to match their mood. Green seemed to indicate a pensive or amused mood, while orange indicated happiness. A gray coloration meant that the individual was angered or disgusted. Females of the species also had the ability to exude pheronomal tears that attracted males during the mating season.

Their civilization was quite small, and many xenobiologists came to believe that it never grew to sufficient proportion to allow it to advance at the same pace as humans and other humanoids. It was believed that the Fosh spent much of their time concealing themselves from public view, although this may have simply been the way in which the Fosh chose to live their lives.

Many scientists and xenobiologists believed that the Fosh homeworld was located in the Corporate Sector of the galaxy. They also believed that the Fosh was was nearly extinct, if not completely so, because so few individuals had ever been seen. Those few recorded encounters with Fosh in the galaxy at large indicated that they were a people who loved political intrigue, and who believed themselves to be superior to other races. They purposely manipulated other beings for both amusement and their own advancement, but also recognized that each race had its own survival instinct that needed to be respected. (HT, T, NEGA)

Fosky, Prozzen
This Bith mozz box player, known in the music business as "Mozzie", was famous among the true music afficiandos but unknown among the masses of the galaxy.

Fountain of Light
A unique sculpture found at the rear of the Bazaar deck on the Kuari Princess. (RM)

Fountain of the Ancients
This unique, natural phenomenon was located in the center of the Derelkoos Desert, on Klatooine. In a bowl-shaped depression, liquid wintrium seeped from the desert sand and began to crystallize when it came into contact with the air. As it solidified over several millenia, the wintrium formed wonderful shapes and patterns, continually expanding and growing to resemble a fountain that was frozen in motion.

Because of its hardness, the Fountain's shape could only be altered by powerful weaponry, and had stood untouched for as long as the Klatooinan race could remember. The Fountain's continually growth, increasing strength, and tenacity instilled similar values in the Klatooinan people. It also had certain religious connotations to them, because it was a symbol of the unending strength of time itself. No technology was allowed within a kilometer of the fountain, in an effort to preserve it for future generations.

When the Hutts first appeared on Klatooine, they became the living embodiment of the Ancients, since they lived for centuries. When the Hutts realized that the Klatooinans revered them in this way, they set about to further entrench themselves as the masters of the Klatooinan race. The managed to convince the Klatooinan Council of Elders to renamed the landmark as Fountain of the Hutt Ancients, much to the disgruntlement of the younger generations of Klatooinans. (GG12, NEGA)

Fountain of the Hutt Ancients
This was the bastardized name given to the Fountain of the Ancients, located on the planet Klatooine. The name was developed by the Hutts, who had tricked the Klatooinans into signing the Treaty of Vontor and placing themselved into perpetual indenture. The Hutts tried to generate more respect and admiration for themselves by modifying the name of one of the Klatooinans most revered and symbolic natural landmarks. Many Klatooinan elders went along with the change, since they believed that the Hutts were the living embodiment of the Ancients. This name change disgruntled many of the younger generations of Klatooinans, who believed that their elders were too cowardly to stand up to the Hutts. (GG12, NEGA)

Each pilot in the formation maintained a minimum distance of one to two kilometers between he and his wingmates. In this formation, the TIE Fighters could surround a target vessel while the leader hailed the ship and demanded information. (DSTR)

Fountain Towers
This up-scale, residential facility was built in the 300th District of the city of Sath, on the planet Samaria, during the final years of the Old Republic. The complex was made up of several residential towers that surrounded the Seven Minerals Fountain, as well as a dedicated hangar facility for the speeders and personal yachts of its residents. At the time of the formation of the Galactic Empire, only three of the four towers were completed. (LJ5)

Four Families
This was one Chiss term used to describe the four ruling families of their society: Csapla, inrokini, Nuruodo, and Sabosen. Each family was equally represented in the Chiss government, although they went to great lengths to ensure that family identity was eliminated wherever possible. The leaders of the Chiss did not use names, but instead wore colorful robes to distniguish themselves. This helped ensure that decisions were reached in a fair and equitable method. Note that Survivor's Quest indicates that there were nine Chiss families. (FH2, SQ)

Four Masters
This was the name used to describe the four Jedi Masters who originally founded the Jedi Templ on Corusant, more than 4,000 years before the Galactic Civil War. (SWCL)

Four Pillars
This was the basic set of premises upon which the Korunnai culture was based. Native to the planet Haruun Kal, the Korunnai believed that every individual was beholden to the Four Pillars: Honor, Duty, Family, and Herd. Honor, the first pillar, was simply one's obiligation to themselves: speak truthfully, act with integrity, fight bravely, and love without reservation. Duty, the second pillar, was one's obligations to other Korunnai: Work hard, do your job, obey one's elders, and stand by your tribe. Building on the strength of the first two pillars, Family represented the strong obiligations to your tribe: love your spouse, care for your parents, teach your children, and defend your blood. The fourth and greatest pillar was Herd, representing the Korunnai's dependence upon grassers to ensure there was enough land to live on. If the safety of the herd required that an individual sacrifice their life - or the lives of one's family - then that individual was obligated to make the sacrifice. In this way, the Four Pillars built upon each other to form a strong relationship: duty was more important than one's honor, family was more important than one's duty, but the herd was more important than anything. (SHPT)

Four Sages of Dwartii
This group of four philosophers and lawmakers was active during the earliest days of the Old Republic. Their views and decrees were often controversial, especially to those races that were new to the Republic. (SWCL)

Four See Seers of the Cyclops
According to Skakoan legend, the Four See Seers of the Cyclops served the Lord Being of the Swirlbies, and existed within the Threshold of the Hidden Realms to judge whether an individual was worthy of approaching the Albino Cyclops. The roughly humanoid See Seers were said to be able to look within an individual's heart and discern their true intentions, and passed judgment on any Skakoan who passed through the Gates of Grontessiant. Those individuals who were deemed worthy were often forced to undergo further tests before they were allowed to see the Eye of the Albino Cyclops. (VIS)

Four Solar Winds
This was an expression used by most beings who spoke the Basic language to describe the movement of particles through interstellar space. The name came from the terrestrial designations of direction - north, south, east, and west - and had no grounding in scientific evidence of four distinct systems of solar winds. (CN1)

Four Stages of the Dark Side
This was the description used by the ancient Jedi Master Tolaris Shim to describe the four stages that a Jedi went through when they were seduced by the Dark Side of the Force. This description was created in response to Ulic Qel-Droma's dramatic fall when he joined Exar Kun as a Sith, during the Great Sith War. According to Master Shim, the stages were temptation, imperilment, submission, and either atonement or redemption.

Temptation occurred when a Jedi used their Force powers for their own benefit, putting the individual's needs or desires before those of the galactic community. Often, this stage is associated with a lack of patience, or a desire to use the Force to help a friend or ally.

Imperilment occurred when a Jedi was unable to make a decision about their actions. When the Jedi questioned the correct path of action, or worried too much about what the cost of an action, then they allowed themselves to fall further down the path to the Dark Side of the Force.

Submission occurred once the Jedi had accepted their use of the Dark Side, and came to believe that there was no need to explain their actions. Depending on how fully the Jedi accepted their condition, they may or may not have been able to return to the Light Side without assistance.

The final stage had two possible outcomes, depending on the scope of the Jedi's actions. Atonement could occur if the Jedi renounced the Dark Side, and spent an appropriate amount of time meditating and reflecting on their actions before finding absolution in the Force. Redemption could occur if a Jedi returned to the Light Side of the Force and called upon it to aid in a selfless action that aided in achieving a greater good. Redemption could only occur if the Jedi chose not to call upon the Dark Side of the Force, and only if the Jedi had not taken a life while under the influence of the Dark Side. Any Jedi who killed another being while using the Dark Side could only hope for atonement.

Despite the direness of these descriptions, Master Shim was careful to point that a Jedi could never be fully blinded by the light. Every being had some darkness to their lives, but the true Jedi knew about their darkness and took responsibility for keeping it in check. (EGF)

Four-cubes
This was a popular game of chance that was played in bars and casinos throughout the galaxy, during the height of the New Order. (RF3)

Four-Den, Halka
A member of the Old Republic's research section, her expertice was in scientific expeditions to new and uncharted planets. She'd worked her way up through the ranks, eventually obtaining her first command assignment, leading an expedition to Dagobah. She recorded copious notes and images in her logs, but her entire team was lost over the period of their exploration. Many died from the hostile plant and animal life of Dagobah. Halka's exact death was not recorded. Her logs were discovered during a New Republic deep search of Imperial databases, where they had lain untouched during Palpatine's reign as Emperor. (ISU)

Fourstar, Milo
This man, a soldier with the Alliance who served on the planet Arbra in the wake of the Battle of Hoth, accused Luke Skywalker of purposely killing Shira Brie because Shira didn't return his romantic advances. Milo tried to throw a punch at Luke, but Luke dodged the blow and landed his own blow, knocking Milo to the ground. Mile then accused Luke of using the Force to hit him, and even went so far as to infer that Luke was in league with Darth Vader. Even after an Alliance tribunal found Luke innocent of the charges against him, Milo refused to believe that Luke wasn't guilty. (MC62, MC65)

Fourth Attack Squadron
This group of Imperial Victory-class Star Destroyers was destroyed by Alliance starfighters at the Battle of Denab. The Alliance pilots realized that the Victory-class ship was fairly slow, and found that it could concentrate all firepower on a single ship and destroy it before it could escape. The Fourth Attack Squadron fought bravely, but in the end the Alliance's tactics took out the entire squadron. (E4R)

Fourth Battle Group

This was the name used to describe the fourth of seven conflicts that were collectively known as the Battle of Ruusan, which was fought between the Brotherhood of Darkness and the Army of Light a millennium before the onset of the Galactic Civil War. (DBRT)

Fourth Battle of Yavin
This was the battle waged between the forces of the Second Imperium, during which Luke Skywalker and the students of his Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4 defended the moon from attacks by Imperial Admirals Daala and Pellaeon. Daala had determined that the Jedi stood between herself and total command of the galaxy, and decided to have Pellaeon strike at the moon after other portions of her fleet feinted at several other, equally strategic locations within the New Republic. Her plans nearly succeeded, but the combined might of the Jedi Knights and the New Republic proved too much for her fleet. The seventeen ships under Pellaeon were physically flung from the Yavin System; her own flagship, the Knight Hammer, was sabotaged by Callista Ming before Daala could claim ultimate victory. While the Knight Hammer was more than a match for the few Jedi on the ground, Callista managed to steal a downed TIE Bomber on the surface of Yavin 4. She landed the ship in the fighter bays of the Knight Hammer and set off the bombs stored there. The resulting explosions ripped through the Star Destroyer's engine compartments, leaving the ship dead in space. She evacuated the ship as it plunged into the core of Yavin, and was rescued by Pellaeon's ships at the fringes of the system. Once aboard Pellaeon's ship, Daala resigned her rank as Admiral and turned the fleet over to Pellaeon. (GMR5, DS)

Fourth Belt
This was the name of the fourth asteroid belt located in the Oseon System. (LCF)

Fourth Fleet
This was the name given to one of the secondary naval fleet of the Galactic Alliance, during the final stages of the war against the Yuuzhan Vong. The Fourth Fleet, comprised of the surviving ships of the New Republic's Fourth Battle Group and warships from the Imperial Remnant, was commanded by Grand Admiral Gilad Pellaeon from his flagship, the Right to Rule. Among the ships that made up the fleet was the Dauntless and several MC80b cruisers.

During the war against The Confederation, the Fourth Fleet was under the command by Admiral Ratobo, and was dispatched to defend Balmorra, but met stern opposition from a massive Hutt fleet. Although the pilots and crew of the Fourth Fleet lived up to their reputation as the Fearless Fourth, they were eventually defeated, and Balmorra fell to The Confederation. The Fourth Fleet regrouped at Coruscant, and served as the foundation of the task force Jacen Solo took with him to recapture Fondor. A group of minelayers preceded him, but word of their mission was leaked to Luke Skywalker, who then leaked it to the Fondorian government. This allowed the Fondorian navy to destroy the minelayers, forcing Jacen to adjust his battle plans upon reaching Fondor.

As the battle played out, Jacen and Admiral Cha Niathal reached a breaking point when Jacen set off on his own attacks, and Niathal relieved him of his command. The commanders of the Fourth Fleet then had to chose who to take orders from, and their ranks were split during the fighting. In the wake of the battle, the majority of the Fourth Fleet chose to side with Jacen Solo, who had adopted the title of Darth Caedus. They retreated to Coruscant to consolidate Caedus' power and to get repairs and resupply, before the Fourth Fleet was dispatched to the Nickel One asteroid in the Roche Asteroid Field. Caedus added the fleet to the forces of the Imperial Remnant that had already taken control of the asteroids, thereby ensuring that the munitions plants of the Verpine were controlled by the Galactic Alliance. (UF, LF6, LF8, LF9)

Four-Thousand Skylane
This busy skylane, located on the planet Coruscant during the years following the Swarm War, was connected to Monument Plaza by the TravRat Gap. (LF9)

After it was taken from the Imperial Navy, the Fowler was equipped with an improved hyperdrive system, and was dispatched on several anti-starfighter missions with groups of Y-Wing bombers. In the wake of the Battle of Endor, the Fowler was decommissioned, although it was distinguished by a long career. (SSOG)

Fox
This clone commander, known by the callsign CC-1010, was among the many troops assigned to protect the planet Coruscant during the height of the Clone Wars. Note that Commander Fox is designated as CT-0000/1010 in Star Wars Insider magazine, issue 84. Fox had spent his entire career on either Coruscant of Centax 1, serving in the 501st Legion. He was fascinated by the Journeyman Protectors of Concord Dawn, and planned to retire to Concord Dawn when the Clone Wars were over. When Darth Vader was dspatched to eliminate any Jedi at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, Commander Fox was part of the clone team that supported him. He was in command of the small detail that prevented Senator Bail Organa from entering the Temple, and would have used his weaponry on him if other clone troopers hadn't killed Zett Jukassa. With the death of the young Padawan, Fox decided that there had been enough killing, and he simply chased Organa away from the Temple. (E3, SWI84)

This buxom woman was the leader of the Black Hole Gang, during the height of the New Order. She and her twin sister, Jodelle, had been brought up on Ord Mantell as dancers, and were hired by Quatrain Pudundruh as a show act. However, when business got bad, Quatrain sold the nineteen-year-old sisters to the Black Hole Gang on Delphon. When Jodelle was accidentally killed in a raid, Amaiza set out to ensure that she herself had the skills necessary to survive. After discovering the treachery of Kayso and eliminating him, Amaiza assumed command of the Black Hole Gang. An Imperial raid on Delphon scattered the gang, and Amaiza ended up on Aduba-3 without a credit to her name, so she teamed up with Jaxxon to do some smuggling. Just after the Battle of Yavin, she joined her old friend, Han Solo, in liberating a village on Aduba-3 from the clutches of Serji-X Arrogantus and his Cloud Riders. Amaiza was distinguished by her yellow, cat-like eyes - made to look exotic by a pair of colored macrolenses - and her brilliant white hair. (MC8, GMR4)

Foxtrain, Jodelle
This young woman and her twin sister, Amaiza, had been brought up on Ord Mantell as dancers, and were hired by Quatrain Pudundruh as a show act.

Fras were known to spend a large portion of their existence sleeping or lounging around, but were exceptionally active when they moved about. Many other races considered them to be hyperactive, because Fras moved about frenetically when active. (CH72)

Fraal
This canine creature was part of Nevo's gang. Resembling a half-man, half-dog being, Fraal was the gang's tracker. His sensitive nose could track the smallest scent. Fraal detected Boba Fett on Star Station 12, but not before the bounty hunter could escape. Nevo ordered Fraal to follow, but the dog-beast balked several times before being prodded along. Once they reached Maryx Minor, Fraal picked up Fett's scent again, but Nevo and his gang were killed when they tried to apprehend the bounty hunter. Fraal tried to run, but Fett used a heat-seeking missile to destroy him. (EOE)

Fraan, Tal
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)

Frac
This was a slang term used by the Special Operations units of the Alliance to describe a fraction of a credit, although it usually referred to non-Imperial currencies. (GG9)

Frac, Rolai
This Bothan youth attended the Leadership School on Andara, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. He was a scholarship student, and found himself ostracized by the wealthier students. He was chosen to join Gillam Tarturi's small band of mercenaries, and quickly distinguished himself as a leader. Rolai also became the group's security expert and financial officer, and often met with prospective clients to discuss terms. It was later discovered by Anakin Skywalker that Rolai had been working with Rana Halion, of the planet Ieria, to set up a mission in which Berm Tarturi of Andara would be forced to acknowledge the other planets under his representation. The group of students was originally going to simply strafe an Andaran landing platform, but Gillam planned to use the action as a way to "die." He planned to have Anakin be killed in a firefight, ensuring that his body was damaged enough to pass for that of Gillam. The goal of this plan was for Gillam to fake his own death and blame it on his father. Anakin and his Master, Obi-Wan Kenobi, were able to thwart Gillam's plans. Rolai, Gillam, and the entire team were expelled from the Leadership School and transported to Coruscant for questioning. (JQ5)

This man, a native of the planet Kuat, took over Cherit's criminal operations, after Cherit was killed by the Mandalorian known as Skirata. He maintained an air of legitimacy by conducting much of his business from within the Tekshar Falls Casino, but most of his associated knew that Fraig was anything but legitimate. Depsite his boyish good looks, it was believed that Fraig would have sold his mother to the Hutts if he could have made a profit.

Boba Fett and Mirta Gev confronted Fraig at the Tekshar Falls Casino, during their search for the Mandalorian clone known as Jaing Skirata. When Fraig refused to divulge any information, Fett snared him with fibercord and dangled him over the edge of a balcony. It was then that Fraig revealed that a clan Twi'leks known as the Himar had put out the contract on Cherit's life. For this bit of information, Fett dragged Fraig back to the balcony. Fett later explained to Mirta that he didn't care about Fraig, but simply wanted his fibercord back. (LF5)

Franchise, The
This was the simple name of the massive gambling and fighting syndicate that was controlled by the Krish, during the era of the Mandalorian Wars. The Franchise was best-known for its swoopdueling events, but it was also involved with gaming of all sorts. The Franchise used shrewd marketing techniques and timely business partnerships to expand its operations, including partnerships with large corporations like Lhosan Industries. The gladiator events sponsored by The Franchise were staged in such a way that combatants were not forced to fight to the death, thereby creating a group of fighters that were able to culticate large fan bases. In this way, The Franchise was able to reap profits not just from the events they hosted, but also from merchandising and other subsidiary sources that took advantage of the popularity of it fighters. The Franchise suffered trouble when Goethar Kleej, one of its most popular and successful swoopduelists, tried to retire from the sport and expose the inner workings of The Franchise. His speech was edited out by the technicians who worked for The Franchise, and was replaced with a specially-made statement. Goethar was sent back to the ranks of racers, but Jarael managed to acquire a copy of the original speech, in which Goethar laid out the slavery that was occurring behind the scenes. In order to populate the thousands of swoopdueling events that were sponsored by The Franchise throughout the galaxy, the operation contracted with slavers to acquire strong and capable beings that could be forced to race in order to avoid hard labor. Any beings who did not make the cut as a swoop pilot were sent back to the slavers. (KOR13)

Francis, Dania
This unusual, seahorse-like Iskalonian served as Mone's chief advisor during the years following the Battle of Endor.

Frane
This Rutanian was the King of his people some twelve years before the Battle of Naboo. Frane's family had led the Rutanian people for one hundred years by this time. A short-tempered and vindicative ruler, Frane considered himself the best hunter on the planet, and became angry if he didn't maintain his stature. However, Frane was also a sensitive man who would break into deep fits of sobbing. When his first-born son, Leed, refused to return to Rutan on his sixteenth birthday, Frane accused the Senali government of holding the boy against his will. The Jedi Knights were asked to mediate the dispute, in an effort to avoid another civil war. Frane also planned to imprison Meenon's daughter, Yaana, if he was not allowed to speak to Leed. The Jedi discovered that Leed wanted to remain on Senali, and had offered his brother Taroon the chance to rule in his place. Frane's short temper initially blinded him to the possibility of Taroon being a good leader, but in the end Taroon proved himself worthy of Frane's notice. Frane agreed to allow Leed to remain on Senali, as the first ambassador for both worlds, and he took Taroon as his heir. Frane even proposed that Taroon marry Drenna to help solidify the new-found peace between Rutan and Senali. (SP)

Frayne
This middle-aged woman served the Old Republic military as a weapons researcher and scientist, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. In the wake of the Battle of Geonosis, Doctor Frayne was dispatched to Geonosis with Jedi Knight Jyl Somtay, on a mission to locate and contain any weapons technology that might remain on the planet. The Republic's goal was to ensure that such technology was never put to use against the Republic. However, Doctor Frayne had her own agenda, since she was actually a freelance operative looking to steal the technology for herself. She rendered Somtay unconscious with a simple ruse, and then captured the clone troopers who had accompanied them. She set out to escape on her own, but was unprepared for the many traps laid by the Geonosians. Somtay and Naj Pandoor found Frayne - or at least, her severed head - in a hidden passageway beneath the surface of the planet. They later discovered that a captive female nexu had killed her, although they managed to escape from the creature when it was attacked by rogas. (SWI79)

Frazznik
This red-skinned Zabrak was one of the many Mandalorian warriors to struggled against the forces of the Old Republic and the Jedi Order during the Mandalorian Wars, some 3,964 years before the Battle of Yavin. Frazznik's partner, Wargo, discovered Marn Hiergryph among the conscripts who were taken to Jebble for training, and remembered that the Snivvian had been among the small group that had escaped from the Mandalorians on Taris. (KORV)

Freatt, Oro
This minor crimelord ran the planet Shownar. He was a shrewd, although minor, figure, and had discovered the proper methods for lining Imperial coffers with just enough credits to keep them out of his affairs. (GG9)

Fred Jawa
According to a HoloNet comic that appeared sometime during the height of the New Order, Fred Jawa was part of a group of Jawas who made a comfortable living selling droids to the residents of a settlement known as Dura Mater. As part of a plan to extract even more credits from the hapless farmers, Fred worked with another Jawa known simply as Stan. Stan had a working relationship with the moisture farmers of Dura Mater, and was always ready with more droids when the old ones finally died. After Stan made several sales on his own, Fred Jawa would suddenly appear at the next sale, claiming to be a "consumer advocate". Fred then explained to the farmers that Stan had failed to provide full warranties. The gullible farmers of Dura Mater always fell for the spiel, and opted to buy the "extended warranties" that Fred claimed their were entitled to. In this way, the Jawas sold the same droids to the farmers, but also made a profit selling them bogus "extended warranties". (T20)

Freda
The name of the primary race inhabiting the planet Freda, these beings were locked in a cold war with their neighbors, the Jante, until the Freda militia launched offensives against Jante holdings in the Rettna System. The Freda were successful in capturing Hamner Heavy Ores plants, as well as Jante Materials Corporation facilities in orbit around Rett II. This prompted Imperial Moff Haveland to order a cease-fire, and peace talks were initiated. The Freda President Rolf Petruma withdrew from the talks, claiming that they were becoming stagnant and worthless. (SWJ9)

Freda
This was the primary planet in the Freda System. (SWJ9)

Fredja
This Imperial stormtrooper Captain served at the Maw Installation. He was continually caught between Admiral Daala (who was his Commanding Officer) and Tol Sivron (the Director of the Maw installation).

(JASB)

Free Access Grill
This establishment, located in the city of Grig, was the only such business to serve non-human individuals without reporach. It was one of the cleanest, best-run businesses in Grig, and was run by four-armed alien known as Tikiman. (TA)

Free Dac Volunteers Engineering Corps
This small band of radical Quarren exiles established its base of operations on the planet Minntooine, and became one of the many corporations that allied themselves with the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. The Free Dac Volunteers Engineering Corps worked with Hoersch-Kessel Drive, Incorporated, to produce the Recusant-class light destroyer. (X3)

Free Enterprise
This colony ship was believed to have left the planet Eriadu some 130 years before the Battle of Yavin, bound for Kuna's Eye with a collection of Jindas and Tulgahs. The ship vanished without a trace, until a group of Alliance traders found thriving populations of both species on the Forest Moon of Endor, shortly after the Battle of Endor. (OWS)

Free Lance
This Nebulon-B frigate was turned into a pirate ship by Urias Xhaxin, during the last years of the New Order. Xhaxin purchased the ship from a Hutt arms dealer for 100 grams of hollinium hyperbaride, a two-carat Rainbow Gem, and a cannister of glitterstim. During this time, he worked as a privateer, and the Free Lance was known for the blazing claw insignia it wore on the forward section. The Free Lance was armed with ten turbolaser batteries, a pair of ion cannons, twelve laser cannons, and two tractor beam projectors. Xhaxin and the Free Lance were employed by the Alliance under Ral'Rai Muvunc's plan to use pirates and privateers to harass Imperial convoys and obtain much-needed supplies. After the Battle of Endor, Xhaxin and the Free Lance continued to work for the New Republic, picking off Imperial convoys. However, he found that his targets grew more and more sparse as the Empire dwindled and became the Imperial Remnant. The ship was severely damaged while making a run near Bastion, when it encountered a Yuuzhan Vong warship. The Yuuzhan Vong pummeled the Free Lance, but Xhaxin's crew was able to make a blind jump into hyperspace and escape. (DTO, PP)

Free Mandalore
This was the name of Fenn Shysa's modified transport ship, a Kubrai-class transport used during the early years of the New Republic. The ship was armed with a pair of blaster cannons and proton torpedo launchers. (GMR9)

Free People
This was the name used by those Psadans who chose to fight against the Yuuzhan Vong, after the alien invaders took control of the planet Wayland. The Free People separated themselves from the Wish-To-Be people, despite their mutual respect for natural, organic life. While the Wish-To-Be faction believed that the Yuuzhan Vong held life in the same regard, the Free People held that the Yuuzhan Vong twisted life and made it foul, showing a great lack of respect for life. (GMR10)

Free Space
This was a term used by many races to describe the known galaxy. (TCW1)

Free Spacers Guild
This was an association of independent starship owners that formed in the wake of the Galactic Civil War. The Free Spacers Guild allowed the concerns of the independent spacer to be voiced with more political power than ever before. (NEGA)

Free Trade Zone
This area of the galaxy was, at one time, untouched by the government of the Old Republic. It was set aside for, and managed by, the Trade Federation under a franchise that gave them control of the zone. The Federation was able to set its own tariffs and mark its own trade routes without interference from the Old Republic. This changed when the Senate voted to impose taxation upon these trade routes, forcing the Trade Federation to blockade the small planet of Naboo in protest. (IG1)

Free Trader Association of Naboo
Originally established by Shep Contopault, this group was determined to provide the necessary resources to allow independent spacers to set up permanent bases of operation at Kwilaan Starport, during the era leading up to the Battle of Naboo. (SON)

Free Trader Worlds
This loose alliance of planets was ruled by anarchy at best. The planetary governments held little power, and rewarded the rich and powerful for their minimal contributions to the rest of society. Very little was actually free on these worlds, especially to offworlders. Businessbeings from Free Trader Worlds were often referred to as "thieves with business cards." (SOL)

Free Trader's Guide to the Planets
This database of planetary information was compiled by the Lantilian Spacers Brotherhood for the use of its members. The basic service was free, and there were additional features and information that could be purchased for a small fee, such as the Trader's Gamble. No guarantee was made as to the accuracy of the information, since much of it came from members in good standing with the Brotherhood. (SWJ10)

Freebird
This was the name used by Commander Gorrister and the other Imperial officers who survived the outbreak of the strange contagion they were transporting to Khonji Seven, about a year before the Battle of Yavin. The rest of the crew aboard their Star Destroyer was infected by the contagion when a storage contained leaked, the survivors drew together inside the shuttle to wait for rescue. They knew that their survival depending on getting the shuttle working again, and they used the name Freebird whenever they described the shuttle. Unfortunately, Gorrister and several other survivors were killed by Jareth Sartoris when they tried to attack the Captain and cannibalize his body. The rest were killed as they tried to work with other survivors - including Zahara Cody, Trig Longo, Han Solo, and Chewbacca - to escape from the Star Destroyer. The others managed to break free, and took the Freebird to an outpost on Galantos. They shold the ship to a group of Black Hammer pirates, and used the credits to go their separate ways. (SWDT)

Freebird
Captain Stanz's starship. (BTS)

Freebooter
This was the name of Devon Fuller's second starship, destroyed by the Empire near Ansarra. (GG9)

Freebooter-class Transport
This was considered one of the most ungainly transport vessels produced during the years following the war against the Yuuzhan Vong. When viewed from above, the ship looked like a deep crescent, into which a long knife blade had been stabbed. The points of the crescent and the point of the knife faced forward, while the wide arc of the crescent made up the rear of the vessel. This aft configuration resembled the fat posterior of a bantha, at least according to several trade reports, but it provided the Freebooter-class transport with incredible cargo space.

The majority of Freebooter-class transports were produced for the Galactic Alliance military, where they were put into use as personnel and materiel transports. These vessels found a niche as medical transports, since they could move injured personnel with relative ease, preventing further damage to already injured or broken bodies. (LF4)

Freeco Bike
This cold-weather speederbike was developed for use by the Grand Army of the Republic. The freeco bike was actually a Bespin Motors CK-6 swoop bike, which was essentially a sealed cockpit mounted to a pair of engines. The term Freeco Bike was coined by the clone troopers of the GAR, who remarked that it performed in the freezing cold of planets like Orto Plutonia. (CWOC1)

Freeda
This Imperial Admiral, based on the planet Ord Grovner, ordered the strike against the Khuiumin Pirates, sending the Crusader and the Bombard to wipe them out. (SWJ6)

Freedom
This Firespray-31 was owned and operated by the Mon Calamari dissident, Kant, during the Galactic Civil War. (UA)

Freedom
This small group of rebels found their voice on the planet Bakura during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Members of the Freedom group wanted Bakura to stand separate and alone from the New Republic and the rest of the galaxy, having lived for many years under Imperial control and the supposed ignorance of the Republic. The group was founded by Malinza Thanas, who used her family name and ties to gain both popular and political support. In secret, the Freedom group was funded by Deputy Prime Minister Blaine Harris, who could not bring about Bakura's independence without serious political repercussions. Freedom was a principled group who beliefs were rooted in the religion of the Cosmic Balance. They chose peaceful methods of protest, hoping to avoid any backlash from the Balance. The efforts of Freedom were derailed sometime after the Battle of Ebaq when Prime Minister Molierre Cundertol launched his own secret plans to turn Bakura over to the Ssi-ruuvi Imperium. Cundertol arranged to have himself kidnapped, so that he could be brought to Lwhekk and enteched in the body of a human-replica droid. His kidnappers, who were hired mercenaries, claimed to be members of the Freedom group. Molierre arranged for them all to perish in an explosion just as they reached Bakura, and his escape ensured that Malinza would be arrested and charged in his kidnapping. Cundertol hoped to smash Freedom in order to ease the Ssi-ruuvi overtaking of Bakura, but his plans were thwarted by Han Solo and his wife, Leia Organa Solo, who were on Bakura to re-etablish communications. Both Harris and Cundertol were killed, and Freedom reconciled itself to the need to join the Republic against the Yuuzhan Vong. (FH2)

Freedom
This was the name given to the Imperial-II class Star Destroyer Avarice, after it was surrendered by its Captain, Sair Yonka, during the Bacta War. Yonka then led the ship into war during the Battle of Thyferra. The Freedom unleashed a hellish nova flare of proton torpedoes on the Lusankya, striking the first blow of the battle and severely damaging the larger ship. (BW)

Freedom Convoy
This group of freedom fighters rose to prominence during the last decades of the Old Republic, when they launched a campaign to free female Twi'leks from enslavement at the hands of the Hutts. (BH)

Freedom of Sullust
This New Republic corvette was dispatched to stop an Invid raid on a spice transport near Kessel, and was nearly destroyed when the Invidious came to the assistance of Shala the Hutt. (IJ)

Freedom One
This was SoroSuub's new name for the Stormtrooper One blaster rifle, used during the early years of the New Republic. The weapon was virtually unchanged, although SoroSuub's allegiance to the Republic generated the name change. Note that The New Essential Guide to Weapons and Technology indicates that Alliance troops gave this weapon the name Freedom One. (AEG, NEGW)

Freedom Station
This deep-space facility was maintained by the Freedom Force, and was protected by the Alliance, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Located in the remote area known as Deep Sapce, Freedom Station was an older facility that had been retrofitted for use by the Alliance. During the rework and the months that followed, Freedom Station was under the command of General Rueb. The station was a valuable asset for the Alliance, since it was located near an Imperial traffic route that was used by capital ships as a testing ground. (SWGAL)

Freedom Strike Seltos
This New Republic operation involved the insertion of Republic agents into the populace of the planet Seltos. The native population, some years after the Battle of Endor, overthrew the ruling government, ousting pro-Imperial leaders in favor of a allegiance to the Republic. However, a number of current and former Imperial leaders tried to retake control. The Republic didn't want the natives of Seltos to feel that it was meddling in their affairs, but it also couldn't let the Empire regain control of the planet. The agents were secretly transported to the planet and infiltrated the city of Somin City, helping to remove Sinya Deboora and Lieutenant Hensworth from the political scene. (TSK)

Freedom Warriors
This special forces military unit supported the Jedi Knights of the Old Republic during resource-heavy operations. The ranks of the Freedom Warriors was open to all beings, with no requirement for Force-sensitivity. However, this unit was trained to act in concert with Jedi against even the most dangerous Sith opponents. (ROE)

Freedom's Fury
One of several ships sent by the New Republic to accompany Garm Bel Iblis, Booster Terrik, and the Errant Venture to Yaga Minor, in an attempt to steal a copy of the Caamas Document. (VOF)

Freedom's Messenger
This CR90 corvette was purchased by the government of Chandrila some sixty years before the Battle of Endor. It was outfitted to perform a variety of missions, and was best-known for its participation in the Vaykaaris uprising as well as for the fact that the treaty which brought the Marzoon Confederacy into the Old Republic was signed aboard the ship. After a long life, the Freedom's Messenger was finally defeated in battle at the Battle of Ord Torrenze, where it plowed through the enemy blockade with all guns firing. The Freedom's Messenger took heavy amounts of fire, but managed to forge an escape route for the civilian ships stranded on Ord Torrenze. In the wake of the battle, however, the Freedom's Messenger suffered massive damage to her power core, and the ship's crew was fatally poisoned with radiation. It was left for scrap in orbit about Ord Torrenze's sun, until it was recovered by the Empire and refitted as the Renegade. (DARK)

Freedom's Sons and Daughters
This group of insurgent patriots were active during the Clone Wars. Led by Zozridor Slayke, the original members of this group came from the crew of the Scarlet Thranta, which was the Old Republic starship Slayke had once commanded. Slayke grew tired of watching the Old Republic squabble over the credits expended for military protection, and knew that he needed to strike out on his own in order to be effective. Even though they were not officially aligned with the Old Republic, the beings of Freedom's Sons and Daughters fought for what the Republic represented. They took their battles to Separatist forces in remote locations near the Sluis Sector, often driving off forces that might have destroyed Republic installations. For their work, they were branded pirates and traitors by the Galactic Senate. However, many in the Galactic Senate, and even Chancellor Palpatine himself, recognized that they were doing the dirty work that the Republic couldn't get to in time. One of these missions took place more than two years after the Battle of Geonosis, when Slayke and his soldiers attacked the Separatist forces that had captured the Intergalactic Communications Center on Praesitlyn, and held the Separatists at bay until a Republic task force could be dispatched. The cost of this action was exceptionally high, both in terms of materiel and in terms of life, but the militia managed to remain in place until they were relieved by a task force led by Nejaa Halcyon and Anakin Skywalker. Although much of their history was lost in the tumult surrounding the end of the Clone Wars, Freedom's Sons and Daughters were recognized for the fact that they helped the Jedi Knights try to re-establish order in the Old Republic. Han Solo made a reference to this group while talking to Rekkon on Orron III. (HSE, CSA, WS, JT)

Freedon Nadd Uprisings
This was the name given to the series of revolts which occurred on Onderon just prior to the Great Sith War. They were initiated by the followers of Freedon Nadd's Dark Side teachings, and furthered by the rise in Dark Side energies on the planet. The uprisings ended just after the death of the Onderonian King Ommin. (FNU, NECH)

Freedonna Kaisu
This was one of the three major rebel groups that supported the Alliance, during the early stages of the Galactic Civil War. Led by Ydor Vokkoli, the Freedonna Kaisu opposed the plans of Yeeru Chivkyrie and the Republic Redux group, fearing that open rebellion would bring the full power of the Empire down on Shelkonwa and the Shelsha Sector. (A)

Freefall
This Freefall-class starfighter was owned by the Bith smuggler Jinkins, during the time he worked for Nym. It was armed with four laser cannons, a turret-mounted laser cannon, and a bomb chute which held twenty explosive devices. (GMR5, JSF)

Freefall-class Starfighter
This ship was designed to serve as a bomber. Measuring 30 meters in length, the Freefall-class bomber was named for the fact that it ws designed to simply drop unguided bombs on a target. The craft's central fuselage could accommdate up to 20 metric tons of cargo, and was attached to two huge, wing-mounted sublight engines. A pair of cockpit-mounted laser cannons provided defensive armament, in addition to its bomb chute. (GMR5)

Free-Flight Dance Dome
This elegant bistro, bar, and dance club was located on Etti IV during the early years of the New Order. It was here that Han Solo paid off his debt to Ploovo Two-for-One with a Corporate Sector Authority Cash Voucher that was attached to a de-venomed dinko. The Free-Flight had many luxurious appointments, from its well-stocked bars to the top-of-the-line gravity-field generators used to manipulate gravitic forces within the dance dome and it certain species-specific booths. (HSE)

Freefloater
This was the brand name of repulsor-equipped office furniture that was produced during the years that followed the Yuuzhan Vong War. Freefloater desks had the advantage of providing a stable surface on which to work, but were not encumbered by legs or rollers to support them. Thus, Freefloater furniture could be moving into any configuration simply by pushing it into position, allowing the owner to reconfigure an office in a matter of minutes. (FJ3)

She refitted the ship to have additional cargo space, and removed several shield generators in order to make room and power available for a hyperdrive. The Freejack had room for 400 metric tons of cargo, and was armed with four light turbolasers and a tractor beam projector. (SOG)

Freel
This was a name that was common among the Defel race. (UANT)

Freelan, Borrath
Known to his fellow spacers as "Big Haul," this man was one of many independent starship owners who business was impacted by the withdrawal of the Cularin System from the rest of the galaxy, shortly after the Clone Wars came to an end. Shipyard records were lost, allowing several of his former employees to claim that the ships they were flying were their own, and Freelan found himself chasing them down to recover his property. Freelan also resented the fact that Cularin chose to secede from the rest of the galactic community when the New Order was established by Emperor Palpatine. In order to maintain its isolation, Cularin's military stepped up its patrols, and forced independent spacers to endure lengthy and rigorous security checks before landing. (LFCW)

Freelance Mercenary Corps
This band of soldiers was one of many independent organizations that joined the Confederacy of Independent Systems, during the early stages of the Clone Wars. (SWI83)

Freeland
This tract of land on the planet Eiattu was held by the People's Liberation Battalion before the planet's leadership was solidified by Plourr. (XWWP)

Freelies
This group of Vorzydiak youths originated on the planet Vorzyd 4 some eleven years before the Battle of Naboo, where that gathered together to sabotage the manufacturing and production facilities in order to gain their people more free time. The Freelies believed that the adults were too strict in their adherence to traditional work policies, and wanted to affect social changes that would reduce the number of days and hours a Vorzydiak had to work. With the assistance of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Qui-Gin Jinn, the Freelies were able to gain an audience with the leadership of Vorzyd 4, and the two groups agreed to work together for change. During the early years of the New Order, a splinter group of Freelies decided that they needed more diversions than what was available on Vorzyd 4. They traveled to the neighboring world of Vorzyd 5, where they began working in the underground to coerce and steal from the gamblers there. They captured C-3PO when Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa tried to disrupt the flow of Imperial cash there, then later got invovled with Imperial troops trying to capture Luke and Leia. Many of their number were hurt or wounded in an Imperial ambush. (CSWEA, TTW)

Freely, Keets
This man was once a journalist who worked for the Coruscant Holo Net, during the final years of the Old Republic. During the Clone Wars, Freely was one of the few reporters who openly questioned Chancellor Palpatine's continually-increasing level of power over the Republic, despite the Chancellor's claims that his only goal was peace. Thus, when the Clone Wars ended and Palpatine named himself Emperor, Feely found himself a target of the Enemy Eradication Order of Coruscant. Rather than submit to Imperial domination, Freely chose to join the Erased. He wiped out all record of his existence and went underground.

In order to earn a few credits, Freely became a slythmonger, although he remained loyal to Dexter Jettster and other members of the Erased. Like many of his fellow Erased, Keets wanted to locate Solace and find peace, so he was more than willing to accompany Ferus Olin and Trever Flume on their search. After locating the Solace and identifying her as the former Jedi Fy-Tor-Ana, Ferus and Trever set out to return to the surface and prevent Inquisitor Malorum from locating them. Keets and the other members of the Erased remained behind in the underground settlement. Unfortunately, Malorum's spy had already acted, and Imperial troops flooded into the settlement.

Keets was shot and badly wounded as he tried to escape, and was believed to have fallen to his death just as Fy-Tor-Ana and Trever returned. However, in the wake of the attack, Trever found that Keets had survived the fall, helped carry him to safety. When Ferus was captured by Emperor Palpatine and sent to Samaria, Keets and Curran Caladian remained on Coruscant to report on the actions of the Imperial forces there. They were able to break into the offices of Senator Sano Sauro and acquire a wealth of datafiles linking the Senator to the True Justice, but were arrested by Zackery and held for questioning. The pair might have executed if the aging waitress droid WA-7 hadn't shown up. Posing as a cook droid, WA-7 helped them escape, and asked them to say "Hello" to Dexter Jettster for her.

When Clive Flax arrived on Coruscant with Astri Oddo and her young son, Lune, Keets and Curran Caladian found themselves acting as the boy's guardians on several excursions to the surface of Coruscant. The idea was to give the boy a chance to exercise and see the sun, so that he wouldn't be forced to grow up in the Orange District. However, on one of the excursions, Lune began using the Force to enhance his playtime. This attracted the attention of a group of stormtroopers, who pursued them into the undercity before finally apprehending them. Curran was shot in the shoulder and left behind, while Keets and Lune were taken into captivity. Lune was taken to the Imperial Academy, while Keets was briefly held prisoner, but he eventually made his way back to the undercity and was reunited with the other rebels. It was Keets who helped Astri Oddo and Clive Flax search for information on Eve Yarrow, which pointed them to bank accounts on Niro 11. His return preceded an Imperial attack on Thugger's Alley, and the group was split up and forced into hiding. Keets, Curran, and Dexter Jettster were able to reach a place of relative safety, and sent word to Oryon of their survival.

However, upon being reunited with the others, Keets announced that he was going to remove himself from the resistance. Along with Dex and Curran, Keets believed that their presence among the other members of Moonstrike was drawing too much attention to the group, and would only prove to be more harm than good. The three later met up with another colony of Erased beings, and established a secret colony inside one of water cisterns that were buried beneath Coruscant's surface. (LJ3, LJ4, LJ5, LJ7, LJ9, LJ10)

This young man was a member of Borus's Boys, a group of militant youths who banded together in the city of Gadrin, on Cularin, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. Jarro was one of the few children in the gang who had any ties to the Office of Peace and Security, since him mother worked for the local police. Like the rest of the gang, Jarro had no idea that the OPS was looking into the disappearance of Cularin's citizens, especially the children, as part of the Thaereian Military's plan to capture Force-sensitive individuals.

Jarro himself was captured and taken prisoner during a Thaereian sweep of Gadrin, just before an attempt was made to kdinap Fallon. Luckily for the children, a group of freelance operatives working for Osten Dal'Nay intervened and rescued them. Jarro revealed that the Thaereians had expanded their sweeps to include the children of OPS employees, in an effort to silence the OPS. (NET2)

Freen, Vin
This former Imperial Captain was in command of the supply ship Ambitious when it crashed into the B'knos mining colony.

Measuring 14.6 meters in length, they were manned by 2 crewmen and can transport 2 troopers. The term "Freerunner" actually referred to the weapons platform on top of the vehicle, which moved front-to-back on a pair of tracks. Despite its usefulness, the Freerunner was first produced during the early years of the New Order, and never fit into the Empire's military plans. Unsold units were eventually auctioned off to police forces, weapons dealers, and pirates. (DFR, RASB, DFRSB, AEG)

Freerunner FM
This was a modified version of the basic Kelliak Arms and Armor Company Freerunner. The weaponry was the primary update with the FM version, which was armed with a pair of turret-mounted anti-vehicle laser cannons and a pair of anti-infantry blaster batteries. A third gunner was required to operate the weapons properly. (TTSB)

Freespan Starlanes Transport
This was one of the largest passenger transportation lines active during the last decades of the Old Republic. Based on Coruscant, Freespan was also one of the first transportation providers to expand their fleets as planets such as Ando and Sy Myrth began to secede from the Republic. They recognized that many aliens living on Coruscant would flee the planet to return to their homeworlds after secession, as well as the fact that many natives on worlds which did secede might want to remain allied with the Republic.

Freeworlds
This loose affiliation of planets was located in the Tapani Sector of the Colonies. They were on the fringes of the Sector, and struggled to throw off the yoke of control by the ancient houses of the Tapani Sector. The primary planets of the Freeworlds were Lamuir IV, Tallaan, Neona, Aleron, and Mrlsst, and the leaders and rulers of the Freeworlds were descendants of the ancient Houses of The Expanse. (EGP, PGT)

Freeworlds Common Navy
This was the primary military power of the Freeworlds Region of Tapani Sector, and was formed from the resources of the five primary planets of the Freeworlds. Its mission was to patrol the Shapani Bypass and maintain its freedom, supplementing the patrols of the Old Republic and the Empire while ensuring the free flow of bacta from Thyferra. (PGT)

Freeworlds Region
This area of Tapani Sector was located along the sector's borders. It was positioned along both the Shapani Bypass and the Giju Run, making it a transportation nexus for Tapani Sector. The Freeworlds Region gained power over the generations because all the ores from The Expanse had to pass through the Freeworlds Region. (PGT)

Freeze-blind
This was the term used to describe the sometimes temporary blindness that an individual suffered after being unfrozen from carbonite.

During the height of the New Order, this corporation was known more for its private mercenary force than the products it produced. (SWGAL)

Frossk
This male Trandoshan was a known associate of Longo Two-Guns during the years leading to the Battle of Naboo. Jabba the Hutt issued a bounty for his capture because of his associated with Two-Guns, which was eventually claimed by Jango Fett, who was on Tatooine trying to arrange a meeting with Jabba. (BH)

Frotz
This was a Twi'leki swear word. (PH)

Froz
A planet, and homeworld of the Frozian race, Froz had a lighter-than-standard gravity. It was once covered with grassy plains and deciduous forests, until the Empire decided to punish the Frozians for sympathizing with the Alliance. Large portions of the planet's surface were bombarded with turbolasers, destroying much of the native flora and fauna. Many years later, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, the asteroids in the Froz System were used as communications bases by the New Republic and the Jedi Knights, who were keeping tabs on the Yuuzhan Vong presence in the Corellian Sector. (AC, AE, SBS)

Frozen Blaster Technology
This was the name given to the theory and technology behind the first lightsabers ever produced in the galaxy. Knowing that laser and blaster weapons could produce coherent bolts of light and energy, the ancient Jedi hoped to "freeze" the energy into a solid blade. These early lightsabers required tremendous amounts of power, which could only be provided by dedicated generators. Thus, these early weapons - known as archaic lightsabers by Jedi scholars - were primarily siege weapons with the power pack strapped to the wielder's back. (PJSB)

Frozen Citadel
This was another name for the Tawntoom Citadel. (WOTC, GORW)

Frozen Death Flightknife
This group of Adumari Blade-32 fighters served aboard the Allegiance during the defense of Adumar. (SOA)

Frozian
This was the native language of the Frozian people. (ANT)

Frozian
A race of humanoids from the planet Froz, Frozians have an extra joint in their arms and legs. This makes their motion very unusual to watch. They evolved from a species of prairie lopers who lived by eating the fruit of tall trees. They were covered in fur, and have whiskers on their faces. They have no external ears, and large muzzles. Frozians have a tendency to stutter words or phrases while they were speaking Basic. They evolved in the relatively low gravity of Froz, and could live to be over 100 years old. Those Frozians who lived on higher-gravity worlds often found it difficult to adjust, and the average life expectancy of a Frozian living off their native world was about 20 years less than normal. During the height of the Galactic Civil War, the Frozians were accused by the Empire of harboring sympathy for the Alliance. To make an example out of them, the Empire blasted large sections of the surface of Froz with turbolaser fire, decimating a good portion of the Frozian population. (AC, AE)

Frrflin
This Mrlssti worked as a commercial investigator on the planet Lamuir IV, at the height of the New Order. He had a harmless demeanor, but was not to be underestimated. Frrflin had a number of dangerous underworld contacts he could call upon in times of need. (TSIA)

F-RTZ-2
This small, repulsor-equipped medical droid served as the primary assistant to MD-OC6, better known as Doc, on the remote world of Lamaredd. Known to the medical community within Bartyn's Landing as Fritz, this small droid was often the first point of contact in an emergency, since Doc was usually out on another call. Because he was so small, Fritz lacked a vocabulator. Thus, the droid was unable to communicate in the field. When in the office, Fritz attached itself to a specialized communication module, and could understand a large number of distinct languages. (GMR7)

Fruck
This Gamorrean was one of Ugmush's husbands, and was a weapons gunner on the Zicreex. (POT)

Fry, Bendu
This obese Devaronian male was wanted by the Black Sun organization, and a bounty was placed on his gead during the height of the New Order. Boba Fett accepted the bounty, especially since it allowed Fry to be brought in dead or alive. Fett apprehended Fry with minimal effort, since Fry was a boisterous individual who made to effort to hide his activities. IN an effort to remain alive, Fry claimed that a Jedi Knight was hidden on the planet, hoping to throw Fett off his own trail. Fett tracked down the individual Fry described, only to learn that he was not a true Jedi, but the son of a Twi'leki Jedi who was killed during the Battle of Geonosis. After Fett learned that the Twi'lek had lost his father at Geonosis, he allowed the Twi'lek to live and then returned to Fry. Angry at having been delayed in his hunt, Fett shot Fry at point-blank range, reducing the Devaronian to ashes. (T18)

Fry, Grove
This man was Talesan Fry's father. After Taly was targeted for assassination by a group of bounty hunters, Grove and his wife, Nelia, agreed to leave Taly in the custody of the Jedi Knights while they fled to Coruscant. They hoped to draw off some of the pursuit aimed at their son, and hoped that the Jedi - Qui-Gon Jinn, Adi Gallia, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Siri Tachi - would be able to keep their son safe. Unfortunately, although the assassination attempt was thwarted and Talesan was kept safe, Grove and Nelia were both later murdered by Magus, in an act of revenge against the Jedi. (SOJ)

Fry, Nelia
This woman was Talesan Fry's mother. After Taly was targeted for assassination by a group of bounty hunters, Nelia and her husband, Grove, agreed to leave Taly in the custody of the Jedi Knights while they fled to Coruscant. They hoped to draw off some of the pursuit aimed at their son, and hoped that the Jedi - Qui-Gon Jinn, Adi Gallia, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Siri Tachi - would be able to keep their son safe. Unfortunately, although the assassination attempt was thwarted and Talesan was kept safe, Nelia and Grove were both later murdered by Magus, in an act of revenge against the Jedi. (SOJ)

Fry, Talesan
This young boy, the son of Grove and Nelia Fry, was just ten years old when he was targetted for assassination by a group of bounty hunters, some seven years before the Battle of Naboo. Known to his friends as Taly, the boy was skilled with all manner of technical devices. By the age of eight, he had built a communications system for his family's home. Continual upgrades continue for several months, until Taly became bored with simple construction, and turned to spying on his neighbors. During one of these spying sessions, Taly managed to record a secret transmission from a group of bounty hunters - led by Magus and Gorm the Dissolver - outlining their plans to assassinate up to twenty government officials. After turning the recording over to his parents, Taly found himself the target of the bounty hunters, who needed to eliminate any complication to finishing their missions. A group of Jedi Knights, led by Qui-Gon Jinn and Adi Gallia and their apprentices, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Siri Tachi, was dispatched to Taly's homeworld of Cirrus to ensure his safety. When the Jedi Masters managed to stow away on the bounty hunters' ship, the Padawans were left on Cirrus to watch over Taly. Magus managed to track them down, but they stole his starship and fled to Rondai-2. It was on Rondai-2 that Taly believed the assassinations would take place. However, Taly was captured by pirates before they could reach Rondai-2, and returned to Magus. Magus brought the boy to Rondai-2 as protection, but Taly was eventually rescued by the Jedi. After the deaths of his parents at the hands of Magus, Talesan refused to testify to the Senate and went underground. He assumed a new name and acquired intense educational training in electronics and business. In order to fund his fledgeling ideas, Taly took a loan from Passel Argente, the Corporate Alliance leader who had hired Magus for the assassinations years earlier. Taly later claimed that he held no hatred for Argente; it was Magus he hated, since the bounty hunter had killed his parents. Talesan became one of the galaxy's most innovative designers of surveillance systems, and became reclusive after establishing the headquarters of Fry Industries on Genian. He broke his silence after discovering a foolproof codebreaking system, which he offered to the Jedi Knights for the right price. However, if he didn't get the right terms, Talesan indicated that he would turn around and sell the technology to the Separatists. When the Jedi agreed to his many conditions, Talesan was forced to reveal that he had a second prototype, after the death of Helina Dow and the theft of the defective prototype by Magus. He turned the second prototype over to the Republic, unaware that Helina Dow had installed a tracking device inside it. Although the Separatists managed to track the to Azure Spaceport, they did not recover the codebreaker. General Solomahal destroyed it before it could fall into enemy hands. (SOJ)

Fry Industries
This corporation, founded by Talesan Fry in the deserts outside the city of Bruit, on the planet Genian, produced some of the galaxy's most sophisticated surveillance, communications, and security systems during the height of the Clone Wars. Fry himself was deemed something of an eccentric, especially after he demanded that all workers at the Fry Industries facility be single and childless. Many believed that this stemmed from the murder of his parents some seven years before the Battle of Naboo, after Talesan uncovered a Corporate Alliance plot to assassinate twenty galactic leaders on Rondai-2. After the Battle of Azure Spaceport, Separatist forces were dispatched to Genian to destroy Fry Industries, in an effort to ensure that the codebreaker device Fry had invented was never recreated. (SOJ)

Fryll Industries
This small corporation found a niche for itself, producing a variety of oil baths for droids, including the TD series. (FTD)

Fry-rock
This was a term used to describe the flat, non-porous stones that were used by the natives of Tatooine to cook food. These rocks were often carved from obsidian or other natural material that could withstand high temperatures. Taking advantage of the midday heat generated by the planet's twin suns, beings could heat the fry-rock to incredible temperatures, and then place meats and vegetables on them to cook. (LSSM)

FSCV
Loronar's Field-Secured Container Vessel, the FSCV always travels in pairs. The two ships face their ion engines in opposite directions, which places their Prexton doublefield generators opposite the engines. The two generators create a huge force bubble, which can be surrounded by a hyperspace field so that the pair can jump into lightspeed. The power required to generate the force bubble draws considerable power from the ion engines, leading to lengthy acceleration and deceleration distances. (ISB)

FSI-200
This was the model number of one of Sabrashi Bio-chemical Deterrants' Fear Sticks. (FOP)

F'Tang
This ball of frozen rock and ice was the eighth and outermost planet in the N'zoth System. (CCW)

F'tral
An ocean world orbitting F'la Ren, F'tral was home to the Iyra species. The volcanic islands that have formed in these clear, fresh oceans have become the homes of specialized plants. These plants have adapted to become competent fishing plants, voracious cannibal plants, and some have evolved that can seduce other lifeforms near enough for capture. It was located in the Calaron Sector. Many of the planet's oceans were deep, with depths up to eleven kilometers. In other areas, the oceans were shallow tidal pools. (GG4, REB)

Fulgin Cylinder
A long, convoluted tube. (POT)

Fulier, Kast
This Jedi Master and his apprentice, Etain Tur-Mukan, were dispatched to the planet Qiilura during the early stages of the Clone Wars. Their mission was 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 recover his lightsaber, and kept it at her side for the remainder of the war. (RCHC, RCTZ)

This adjective was used by the youth of galaxy during the final years of the Old Republic. It implied that something was much better than something else, as in, "I was full moon amazing." (LJ8)

Fuller, Devon
A native of the planet Arkanis, Devon was the model of a brash, young, X-Wing pilot. He was accepted into the Vensenor Flight Academy, but was expelled for his behavior. Still, he managed to learn enough to serve as a ship's navigator until he saved up enough credits to buy his owne ship. As a spacer, he was characterized as a nuisance, and once paid of a debt to Roark Garnet with a moderately defective P2 astromech droid. After Devon met up with Owen Sareth, he decided to align himself with the Alliance. Since then, Devon's first ship, the Croc of Gold had been destroyed by Imperial forces. His second ship was also shot down by the Empire. This formed a great hatred for the Empire in Devon, and hardened his resolve to assist the Alliance. After Devon met Corwin Shelvay, he settled down even further, and his closest compatriots within the Alliance have called him philosophical. (GG9)

Fullerine
This small corporation produced several starship shielding systems, during the era of the New Order. (SWG2P)

These sensors use large receptor dishes to collect available sensory information. Thus, the larger the dish, the better quality information that can be gathered. (SWSB, CHRN)

Fullua
This was once of the many names given to Duros females. Among the Duros, it meant "beloved". (GCG)

Fulluusub
This was the largest of the independent settlements located on the planet Sullust. By independent, Fulluusub was not directly under the control of the SoroSuub Corporation, as was the city of Byllurun. Many of Fulluusub's inhabitants were artists or individuals who catered to the artistic community, although some thirty percent of the population worked directly for SoroSuub. This caused a number of social problems, as the general populace regarded Fulluusub as something that was out of the normal order. During the era of the New Order, most of the initial resistance to the issuing of corporate proclamation 137d came from Fulluusub, although it was carefully hidden from view. (GORW)

Fulluusubian
This was the term used to describe those Sullustans who lived in the city of Fulluusub, on their homeworld of Sullust. The Fulluusubians were more open-minded than other Sullustans, and their free-thinking ways often clashed with the corporate mentality of the SoroSuub Corporation. (GORW)

He assisted Forno on her mission to retrieve crystals from Indobok. (DRO)

Fulu
When translated into Basic, this Ewok word meant "circle." (GPB)

Fumiyo
This Godoan served as the representative of his homeworld of Godo, during discussions with the Alliance of Free Planets during the months following the Battle of Endor. Fumiyo was chosen because he was the only Godoan at the time who could speak the Galactic Standard language. Fumiyo and his people nearly died when a strange plague began afflicting the Godoans, until Han Solo discovered that two unusual statues - the Dancing Goddess and the Minstrel - were actually key components in a strange technology that helped keep them alive. Thanks to the efforts of Solo, Lando Calrissian, Luke Skywalker, and Chewbacca, the statues were recovered and returned to their rightful places. The Godoans were revived, and Fumiyo lived. He nearly started a war, however, when he refused to allow Lando to be revived by the strange technology, after Lando contracted the plague while returning the Dancing Goddess to Godo. In the end, Fumiyo convinced his leaders to allow Lando to return to Godo and be revived by the statues. (MC99)

Fun-bogger
This was a term used by bongo racers on the planet Naboo for the various critics and opponents of their sport. Consisting of conservationists, clean-up squads, safety consultants, and concerned parents, the "fun-boggers" did everything they could to reduce the impact of bongo racing on the populace and the environment.

Fungus Droid
This was the name given to the small spy droids created by the New Republic during the struggle against the Yuuzhan Vong. The fungus droids were used on Coruscant and other worlds on which the alien invaders used exploding fungus to reform the planet for their own usage. Each droid was mobile enough to insinuate itself near Yuuzhan Vong locations, and carried a collection of recorders and transmitters to beam information back to the Republic's agents. They were built to resemble the exploding fungus, and to place themselves in a group of fungus to blend into their surroundings. (EL1)

Fungus Farm
This was the name given to the lowest levels of a Neimoidian dwelling, where the aliens maintained underground facilities to grow and harvest their nutritive fungi. Often, the fungus farm was underground, taking advatage of the stable temperatures afforded by layers of earth. The fungus was processed and fed to Neimoidian grubs as their first food, but was also shipped across the galaxy for consumption by other races. The spores released within the confines of a fungus farm had a variety of effects when inhaled, the most obvious being the "dislocation" experienced by humans. (LEV)

Fungus Pit
This popular cantina was located in the Twi'lek settlement of Bashka, during the final years of the Old Republic. It was owned and operated by Chieb'Kalla. Much of the Fungus Pit's popularity arose from its predominently female staff, most of whom had been hired by Chieb to keep them from being forced to work as slaves or dancers. (TS)

Funnel Flower
This plant, native to Tatooine, was named for the a cone of large petals that grew from its long, J-shaped stem. The stem itself grew within a crack or crevice in the rocks, anchoring itself with its roots. The plant then survived by pulling hot air in through the upper part of the stem, and then moving it down into the part of the planet hidden in the crevice. There, moisture condensed out of the air and was collected by the plant in the crook of the stem. (ISU, NEGA)

Funnel Plant
This plant, native to the planets Haruun Kal and Tatooine, was known for its waxy orange leaves. These leaves wrapped around each other to form a funnel-shaped spiral which stood nearly two meters in height. Supported by a shallow root system, the leaves of the funnel plant collected rainwater and directed downward to the roots. The native Korunnai used funnel plants of Haruun Kal as a source of water, whenever they traveled through the jungles.

A hardier variety of funnel plant was native to the sparse oases of Tatooine, and grew in the rocky crags that experienced the most shade. The flowers were only extended in the dark, to prevent them from burning. This allowed the funnel plants to collect the most condensation during the early morning hours, when the temperatures on the planet dropped low enough to extract moisture from the air. (SHPT, IWST, E4VG)

Funquita, Diva
This red-haired, Theelin slave was owned by Gardulla the Hutt, who had received the young female as a gift from Jabba the Hutt. A trained dancer and singer, she was also Gardulla's chief aide and majordomo. After Gardulla tried to trick Jabba into betting on Gasgano just prior to the Boonta Eve Classic podrace, Gardulla ordered Diva Funquita to ensure that Anakin Skywalker failed to compete in the race. She tried to enlist the aid of Ark "Bumpy" Roose, but the alien refused. Note that the Young Jedi Collectible Card Game - Boonta Eve Podrace expansion indicates that Diva was this character's species. (IG1, PRT, YJC6, SWDB)

Furellas
This female Wookiee was a friend of Kikow's, and spent a great deal of time on Ralltiir during the last decades of the Old Republic. Furellas had light brown fur and a smile that many beings mistook for a snarl, but she was nonetheless friendly to most beings. It was later revealed that Furellas was a member of The Kalmec. (PH)

Furgan
This was one of the many suburbs of Umgul City, located on the planet Umgul. (JASB)

Furgan
This Caridan served as his homeworld's formal ambassador to the Empire, during the height of the New Order and the early years of the New Republic. During the Clone Wars, he was extremely loyal to the Old Republic and to Chancellor Palpatine, and he was rewarded for his loyalty by being given control of the Imperial Academy on Carida. Despite his ostensible command over the Imperial Academy, Furgan was not a military leader. He merely projected the image of a leader, adorning his well-pressed uniform with more medals and insignia than any individual could have earned in their lifetime. Following the deaths of Grand Admiral Thrawn and the resurrected Emperor Palpatine, Furgan discovered that he was in control of the most heavily armed, though totally useless, planet in the galaxy, and he decided that the time had come for a true leader to emerge and restore the Empire to its former glory. He had grown frustrated with the bickering between Imperial warlords that led to the fragmentation of the remnants of the Empire, which only served to further reduce the Empire's ability to return to power. He realized that he needed to bring the New Republic to its knees, and decided to undermine the fledgling government on a variety of fronts. Using the former captive Mon Calamari known as Terpfen, Furgan began gathering intelligence on the dealings of the Alliance High Command, as well as the location of the children of Han and Leia Organa Solo. After discrediting Admiral Ackbar on Vortex, Furgan decided to take what he called a pilgrimage to Coruscant, to view the Empire's former center and snub his nose at the New Republic. During the trip, he attended a New Republic function at the Skydome Botanical Gardens. When the time came, he demanded the full attention of those gathered, and addressed Mon Mothma directly. Rather than try to discuss peace, Furgan threw a drink in Mon Mothma's face. Unknown to everyone by Furgan, the drink contained a specially-designed mixture of nano-destroyers that were attuned to her genetic structure. Furgan then stormed out of the room and returned to Carida. Later, when Mon Mothma became gravely ill from an unknown disease, it became obvious that the pilgrimage was a disguised assassination attempt. Furgan then set out to capture Anakin Solo, hoping to use the Force-sensitive infant as the template for a new Emperor. Using intelligence gathered by Terpfen, Furgan discovered the location of the base on Anoth, and put together a strike team to capture the child. This mission was nearly scuttled when Kyp Durron destroyed the Caridan System, but Furgan and his teams managed to escape the cataclysm. Without a home, the Caridans set out for Anoth, commanding a group of the newly-developed MT-AT walkers. Terpfen, meanwhile, had found a way to endure the pain of disobeying his Imperial programming, and warned Leia and Ackbar about the impending attack on Anoth. They set out to intercept Furgan's forces, barely reaching the hidden plan before the attack began. Although he briefly captured the infant Anakin, Furgan's plans were foiled when Terpfen turned on him. Without the baby, Furgan tried to escape in an MT-AT. Terpfen then took control of another MT-AT, and managed to push Furgan's walker off a cliff. Furgan died in the fall, putting an end to his schemes. (JS, DA, COTF)

Furious
This was one of the Nebulon-B frigates which were used by the Imperial Navy, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (XW)

Furlag
This tall, furry humanoid was part of the loose bounty hunter alliance that formed around Bossk, just before the Battle of Endor. Furlag and the others tried to intercept Boba Fett and claim the carbonite-frozen body of Han Solo. They missed Fett on Gaul, but were able to track him using a signal sent by 4-LOM. The bounty hunters captured Slave I and took Fett prisoner, and Furlag was placed in charge of locking Fett up. However, this bat-faced alien didn't notice Fett activating an unused crawl shaft, and stepped into the open tube. Furlag was then sucked into space and was killed. (SE)

Furloti, Teraeza
This Alliance operative was stationed undercover in the city of Tyrena, on Corellia, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Furloti was the first Alliance operative to discovere information on the existence of a Geonosian biogenics lab that was still in operation. The lab was found to be creating mutated Kwis and Klikniks that were Force-sensitive, which were then provided to the Sith as minions. (SWGAL)

Fursnake
This furred reptile was native to the planet Velusia. Averaging over two meters in length, the fursnake hunted birds and small mammals on the slopes of the planet's many volcanoes. The bite of a fursnake was not poisonous, but a tail stinger could deliver a potent venom. This venom was often extracted and used as a poison by assassins. (CCW)

Fur-spider
This venomous arachnid was native to the planet Devaron. As large as a dog, these insects wove webs of blood-red webbing. A large group of these spiders lives in the undercity of Coruscant. (TPS)

Furworm
This was a species of large, furry alien creature. (COTF)

Fury
This was one of the many Sith corsairs that made up the naval fleet of the Brotherhood of Darkness. The Fury and its sister vessel, the Rage, among the many vessels that participated in the space battle that served as the opening conflict of the Battle of Ruusan, a millennium before the onset of the Galactic Civil War. Like the rest of the Sith fleet, the Fury was crewed by individuals who were joined to the battle meditation of Lord Kaan, who directed the battle from the flagship Nightfall. However, just when a Sith victory seemed imminent, the Fury exploded under an onslaught from a pair of Republic Hammerhead ships. The sudden turn in the fighting nearly unraveled the Sith forces, until Lord Kopecz was able to land his small fighter aboard the Republic's flagship. He then slew the Jedi Master who was also using battle meditation, allowing the forces of the Brotherhood of Darkness to take control of the space surrounding Ruusan. (DBPD)

Fury
This transport ship was owned by the Mistryl. Shada D'ukal and Dunc T'racen used it during the early years of the New Republic, when they were sent to assist Ghitsa Dogder and Fenig Nabon in transporting a group of Twi'leki dancers. (TFNR)

The Fury-class fighter resembled a raptor in appearance, with the central fuselage supporting two long, downward-facing wings. Each wing supported a drive engine where it met the fuselage, and a third engine was located at the rear of the ship. The Fury-class fighter was produced by Sith armorers, and was used to rapidly transport Sith Lords across the galaxy. (SWLH)

Fusai
This planet, one of the many safeworlds maintained by the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War, was the planet on which Mistress Mnemos was first installed. (OWS, NEGD)

Fusion
This was the brand name of SoroSuub's entry-level starship reactor cores, produced during the height of the New Order. (SWG2P)

Fusion Clouds of Tartaglia
This region of the galaxy, located near the asteroid known as Akatoa, was avoided at all costs by knowledgeable starship pilots and captains. Any vessel that managed to end up in the Fusion Clouds suffered massive systems damage, although many systems appeared to still be operational. Many a shuttle or small transport that became lost in the Fusion Clouds ran out of fuel, even though their instrumentation registered that sufficient fuel remained. (GPB)

Fusion Cutter
This industrial tool had many applications. A fusion cutter produced a wide-dispersion laser beam that could cut through most materials. It could also be used as a weapon, in a pinch. (E4, HSR, DF)

Fusion Disintegrator
This device uses a contained reactor to reduce other materials to smaller, nearly atomic particles. They found widespread use in tunneling applications, where dirt and rock must be removed and transported from a dig site. Because of the nature of the machine, though, it can be used to cut through virtually any material. The disintegrator can be used manually, or mounted on a support tripod. (VOF)

Fusion Disk
A small device which had a small charge attached. When the disk contacts another surface, the charge was ignited, causing the disk to fuse itself to the other surface. The tow cables used by the Alliance to trip the Imperial walkers on Hoth employed fusion disks. (E5)

Fusion Flame
This independent freighter was once beaten in a race around the planet Drall by the freighter designated YT 49272ZED, a ship that was part of the fleet owned by Corell Industries, Limited. (MF)

Fusion Furnace
This was the name givne to any small device which could generate heat and light, or could generate power for recharging energy cells. (E5)

This holo-feature producer was responsible for some of the most popular holovids produced during the New Order. Among their brightest stars was the actress Wynssa Starflare. (MBF)

Fusion Lantern
This was a specialized form of fusion furnace, made specifically for producing light. These lanterns were developed for explorers and scouts, who regularly spent a great deal of time in the wilderness. (UA)

Fusion Reactor
The most popular source of starship power, cold-ionization fusion reactors fuse matter at room temperature, creating huge amounts of energy without emitting large amounts of heat. The fusion reactor then sends the energy it generates to the cryogenic power cells for storage. These were also safe sources of power, since they employ a well-understood technology at tolerable temperatures. Fusion reactors were a necessity for propelling large starships through hyperspace. (SWSB, TT)

Fusion Torch
This tool was common in shipyards, and used the power of a small fusion generator to cut through metal and armor plating. (JST1)

Fusion WeldCut
This welder was roughly the size and shape of a blaster, and emits a narrow stream of fused plasma. The stream was capable of welding two metals together as well as cutting through most metals. It had oversized controls, which allow it to be used by vac-suited repairmen at orbital drydocks. (TA)

Fusion Welder
A small device used to weld two objects together, the fusion welder alters the molecular structure of the two objects at the point which they meet, forming a tight seal. The welder generates an internal fusion reaction, focusing the energy created through its nozzle. Fusion welders were often used to place restraining bolts on droids. They resemble bulky blaster pistols, and used blaster power packs. (CCG, GMH)

Fusioncutter
see Fusion Cutter (RF1)

Fusion-forming
This was a manufacturing process by which dense materials - such as those used to pave spaceports and landing strips - were produced. (HSL)

Fusset
This Trandoshan bounty hunter was active during the last decades of the Old Republic. (SWRPG)

Fusst
This was a powerful expletive that was found in the colorful vocabulary of Imperial stormtroopers, during the early stages of the Galactic Civil War. (A)

Fust, Bendix
This Mordageen criminal was hunted down by Zam Wesell, and eventually caught and imprisoned on Oovo IV sometime before the Battle of Naboo. Shortly afterward, Jango Fett discovered that the Dug crimelord Sebolto had an outstanding bounty for Fust's recovery. Sebolto had wanted to kill Bendix himself, in response to his connection to the loss of Sebolto's operations in the Gazzari Ssytem. Fett had been trying to arrange a meeting with Sebolto for some time, in connection to his own search for the Bando Gora cult, a mission Fett had accepted from Count Dooku. Fett managed to break Fust out of the Oovo IV facility, along with Zam's help, then transported him to Malastare. Zam then took Bendix to Sebolto, while Jango infiltrated the base from a separate direction, removing any obstacles in their way. (SWDB, BH)

Futana, Nabicci
This man was one of the Old Republic's most noted musical composers. He was perhaps most famous for the waltzes and ganther dances he composed during the final years of the Old Republic, many of which were favored by Emperor Palpatine. (SWJ5, OWS)

Futhark
This was the name of the formal Naboo alphabet. Based on a series of oval shapes, the futhark was reserved for use in military and official control labels. (IG1, CVD)

Futility Station
This was a nickname of Lant Mining Corporation's LMCTS-24542 testing station. (HAS)

Futor
This Sullustan infochant owned and operated Futor's Network, aboard the cruiser known as Omze's Incredible Traveling Starport. He also maintained a collection of listening devices posted in the cabins of the ship's General Quarters passenger area. Futor was at one time a computer controller for the SoroSuub Corporation, but was fired for selling top-secret corporate information to the highest bidder. He fled Sullust, and was eventually hired by Omze'kehr Kahr to infiltrate the Sienar Fleet Systems databanks on Byblos. After successfully obtaining the information the Sludir wanted, Futor was hired by Omze to work aboard the Starport. (PSPG)

Futor's Network
Operated by the Sullustan infochant Futor, this business was set up on Omze's Incredible Traveling Starport. Its immense databanks contained a wealth of information from across the galaxy, and provided access to newsnets and other informational services to the patrons of the Starport. Futor sold information for incredible prices, but his information was almost always current and correct. (PSPG)

Future Customer Buildings
This was a term used by the leaders of the Trade Federation to describe any facility that was located in enemy territory, and was targetted for capture during the "defense" of Trade Federation installations. (CCS)

Future of Honoghr
This was the term used by the Noghri to describe the hidden canyon in which they began growing all manner of plants, during the early years of the New Republic. After decades of living with the mutated kholm-grass created by the Empire, the Noghri discovered that they had been held in thrall by the Empire because of its surreptitious poisoning of their land. Leia Organa Solo proved this to them, an event that led the Noghri to break off their relationship with the Empire. Until the death of Grand Admiral Thrawn, however, the Noghri were forced to begin growing crops in a canyon that hid their work from prying eyes. This canyon became known as the Future of Honoghr, since it represented what the planet could truly become, once the Imperial grasses were eliminated. (TLC, LCSB, NEGA)

Future of the Noghri
see Future of Honoghr (NEGA)

Future-fic
This was a genre of literature and holovids that portrayed characters and places that might exist in the future of the galaxy. (DSTR)

This was a Yuuzhan Vong transport ship, stationed at Coruscant after the alien invaders captured the cityworld from the New Republic. A huge ganadote dominated the interior of the craft, which was dedicated for use to those Shapers who worshipped Yun-Yuuzhan. Shortly after the ship arrived at Coruscant, however, Warmaster Tsavong Lah had the ship's inhabitants executed for Ghithra Dal's part in the poisoning of his radank-claw implant. (EL2)

Fuzz
This was a verb used by the Jedi Knights, during the years that followed the end of the Yuuzhan Vong War, to describe the technique of using the Force to temporarily short out video surveillance systems. Fuzzing a holocam allowed a Jedi to move about without being seen on surveillance recordings. The new Jedi Order developed a computer algorithm that allowed them to track Jedi who were fuzzing, during the hunt for Alema Rar. (FJ1)

Fuzzbrain
This was an affectionate yet chiding nickname used by Han Solo to describe his Wookiee first mate, Chewbacca. (RF3)

Fuzzel
This Commander in the Imperial Armed Forces was stationed on Tatooine during the Galactic Civil War. Fuzzel had managed to arrange a deal with Jabba the Hutt, in which Jabba turned over certain criminals to Fuzzel for their rewards. More often than not, Jabba provided dead criminals, but he still managed to find those beings Fuzzel could not. He was one of the many officers hunting for the criminal Karkas, and Fuzzel intercepted Hoole upon his arrival, after learning that Hoole's ship had left Koda Space Station at the same time Karkas had fled. He let Hoole and his young charges, Tash and Zak Arranda, free after thoroughly searching their ship. Fuzzel later received Karkas' body, although Jabba had removed his brain and stored inside the brain spider droid of a B'omarr monk. Shortly thereafter, Fuzzel was found murdered in a Mos Eisley alleyway, with the letter 'K' carved into ihs forehead. Zak Arranda discovered the body, and believed that his sister, Tash, was responsible for the crime. However, it had just been Tash's body. Jabba had arranged to have Karkas's brain placed into another criminal's body, but the criminal had escaped. So Jabba used Tash as a temporary holder. (GOF7)

Fuzzum
This species of thin-legged creatures had a body that consisted of a fuzzy ball of fur. The Fuzzum had no technology to speak of, and their preferred weapon was a wooden spear. (DCAR)

Fuzzum
This was the designation of a group of Z-95 Headhunters that were part of the Dimok naval forces, during the latter stages of the Sepan Civil War. (TIEP)

Fuzzy Jax
This species of jax, named for its crinkly fur, was native to Rori. (SWG2P)

Fwa, Aiks
see Aiaks Fwa (UANT)

Fwanna
This was the Huttese word for the number four (4). The Hutts used a base-eight numbering system, since their hands had just four fingers each. (GMR5, TF)

Fwatna
Jarril had smuggling contacts on this planet, but hadn't used them in the three years leading up to his death. (TNR)

F-Web Repeating Blaster
This successor to the E-Web weapon had increased power, and was equipped with a gunner shield which required a third operator during use. It's main role was as an infantry anti-personnel weapon. The F-Web was also collapsible, making it easy to set up and take down. (CSA, EGW)

Fweep
This was the nickname of Tereb Ab'Lon's astromech droid, which was designated R2-Z1. It was named for the unusual noise it made whenever it made an affirmative reply, which many technicians eventually deemed a "design flaw." Nevertheless, it made the little droid distinctive, as did Fweep's loyalty to its owner. On a mission to deliver information to the Alliance base in the Tao-Grant System, Tereb stored the data in the memory banks of this droid. Unfortunately, Tereb was injured and murdered before he could make it to Tao-Grant, so he asked Nim Bola to make the delivery. With the help of Ral-Kalei, Fweep was delivered to Tao-Grant. (SWJ3, SWJ4)

Fweepa
This Huttese verb means "to clean." (E1A14)

FWG5
see FWG-5 (GQRG)

FWG-5
This was a model of flechette pistol produced by Malaxan Firepower Incorporated. It was smaller and easier to handle that the FC-1 from Golan Arms, and employed flechette-filled pellets instead of heavy canisters. (FOP, AEG)

Fwiis
This planet, some 150 lightyears from Atzerri, was one of the colony worlds visited by the Star Morning after it left Darepp for Motexx. (SOL)

Fwillsving
This planet was located near Honoghr and Kessel, in the Calaron Sector. (TLC, REB)

Fwit
This small, furred creature was native to the planet Maridun, where it was kept as a pet by the native Amanin. Despite its cute appearance, which was heightened by its bushy fur and up-turned jawline that made it seem as if the fwit were smiling, these creatures were savage predators in the wild. The preferred to consume warm flesh, and a pack of fwits could take down much larger prey. The teeth of a fwit were designed to tear flesh, but were densely packed in the jaws, allowing a fwit to crush bone as well. When the Empire garrisoned Maridun, during the height of the New Order, many fwits turned on their owners. Several incidences of gruesome or fatal injury followed, and the Empire soon banned the possession of fwits as pets. This didn't stop the Hutts on the planet from exporting them, however, and fwit populations were soon established on many other worlds. (UA)

Fw'Sen
This alien race mates only once, before they were sexually mature. The fertilized eggs were retained inside the female's body until she had matured, at which time they were awakened and begin to grow. (TT)

Fw'sen-class Picket Ship
This Ssi-ruuvi design was a small combat ship that was piloted by a P'w'eck servant. These 45-meter long ships required three P'w'eck pilots and ten P'w'eck gunners, and were extermely fragile. The Ssi-ruuvi engineers opted for shield generators insetad of hull plating on these ships, which meant that once the shields were down, the ship was extremely vulnerable. Like most Ssi-ruuvi starships, the Fw'sen-class resembles a pointed egg. However, the Fw'sen-class had four stubby wings for stability. It was armed with top- and bottom-mounted turbolasers, a pair of front-mounted laser cannons, and six ion cannons. Each Fw'sen-class picket ship carried 6 enteched servant droids in addition to its P'w'eck crew. This crew setup, paired with the ship's fragile shielding, allowed the picket ships to be expendable while serving the purpose of providing needed support. The ships were piloted remotely by a Ssi-ruuk who had access to special neural inhibitors planted in the P'w'ecks. Twenty Fw'sen-class ships were sent as part of the Bakura invasion fleet. Note that the Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels indicates that this ship is fifty meters in length, and is not armed with ion cannons. (EGV, TBSB)

FX Series 10
This was another name for the FX-10 series of medical assistant droids that was produced by Medtech Industries. (MF)

FX-1
This was the original version of Medtech Industries' FX-series medical assistant droid, produced during the final decades of the Old Republic. (NEGD)

FX-10

FX-4
This was the fourth variation of FX-series medical assistant droid produced by Medtech Industries during the final decades of the Old Republic. (NEGD)

FX-5
This was the fifth variation of FX-series medical assistant droid produced by Medtech Industries during the final decades of the Old Republic. (NEGD)

FX-6
This Medtech Industries surgical assistant droid was created during the final decades of the Old Republic, and became the design basis for the FX-7 series. Standing just over 1.8 meters in height, the cylindrical FX-6 moved about on a set of omni-directional rollers, and was equipped with an interchangeable set of manipulator arms. The FX-6 was designed solely for use as a medical assistant, and lacked any sophisticated programming or communications systems. However, its data storage and retrieval systems allowed the FX-6 to maintain detailed records on hundreds of patients simulateously, making it almost indispensible at military hospitals and Rimsoos during the Clone Wars. Like the other droids in the FX series, the FX-6 was rendered obsolete by technological advancements in the wake of the Clone Wars. Production of FX-6 units declined over time, until Medtech Industries finally went out of business. Note that the Star Wars - Revenge of the Sith Visual Dictionary indicates that this droid is known as the FX-9. (SWI81, VD3, SWDB, NEGD)

FX-7
This FX-series medical assistant droid, produced by Medtech Industries, was similar to most other droids in the FX lines. It was cylindrical in design, with many useful appendages arrayed at and below its waist, and its rotating cranium gave it a 360-degree field of vision. Unlike its predecessor, the FX-6, the FX-7 unit had just a single heavy manipulator arm. Because the FX-7 models were designed as surgical assistants, their compliment of onboard appendages was chosen to allow it to perform delciate surgeries and manipulations of organs. The FX-7 droid which served the Alliance at Hoth's Echo Base was known as 'Fixit,' a commonly used nickname for FX-7 droids. The FX-7 series, along with the rest of the FX line, was produced until Medtech could no longer keep up with the technological advances being made by other droid manufacturers. (E5, SWSB, CCG3, NEGD)

FX-77
This was a model of Ubrikkian star yacht, produced during the early years of the New Republic. Measuring 44 meters in length, the FX-77 was capable of transporting up to eight passengers and 45 metric tons of cargo in relative luxury. (WOA13)

FX-8
This was the eighth variation of FX-series medical assistant droid produced by Medtech Industries during the final decades of the Old Republic. (NEGD)

FX9
This bullet-headed, humanoid medical droid served aboard the Super-class Star Destroyer Executor, working in a hidden laboratory which was maintained by Darth Vader himself. (MC63)

FX-9
This Medtech Industries medical droid was considered a top-of-the-line surgical assistant during the final years of the Old Republic. The cylindrical FX-9 moved about on omni-directional casters, and was equipped with a wide range of fine- and medium-duty manipulator arms. Like the other units in the FX series, the FX-9 was eventually made obsolete by the technological advances that were made by other droid manufacturers. Medtech soon stopped production altogether, and went out of business shortly afterward. Note that Star Wars Insider magazine, issue 81, indicates that this droid is known as the FX-6. (VD3, SWI81, NEGD)

FX92
This was one of the most powerful starship shielding systems produced by Fullerine, during the height of the New Order. (SWG2P)

FX-series Medical Droid
Developed by Medtech Industries to serve as a medical assistant, the FX-series was a cylindrical droid that could be adapted to an infinite number of configurations. With ports to accept up to twenty arms, the FX-series could be configured for a variety of surgical, diagnostic, or precautionary uses. While the FX-series was an elegant design, the advances in the abilities of surgon droids rendered the FX-series virtually obsolete by the era of the New Republic. Medtech produced nine unique versions of the FX-series, including the FX-7 and FX-9 units, before it was forced to stop producing them altogether. With the end of the FX-series and the technological advances in other areas, Medtech Industries went out of business shortly afterward. (SWSB, FTD, EGD, NEGD)

Fybot, Waywa
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)

A native of Cularin, this young boy was a friend of Janna, and was among the many children who were captured by Colonel Rast'Tul and Task Force Vermin, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. (NET2)

Fynock
This was the designation of Incom Industries' high-end starship booster system, produced during the height of the New Order. It built upon the designs of the Mynock and Vynock series of boosters, and was available in standard and deluxe versions, depending on the desired power output characteristics. (SWG2P)

Fynock
This was a species of small, predatory insect that was native to certain caves found on the planet Talus. Fynocks usually traveled in large swarms, which allowed them to overpower prey that was much larger than any individual fynock. Each swarm consisted of at least two different types of fynocks, those that could fly and those that scuttled along the ground. (SWGAL)

Fyntarr
This was the name of a noted member of the ZeHethbra race. (UANT)

Fyodoi
This human stock evolved on the planet Fyodos. At one time, the Fyodoi had became a technology-rich society with a thriving space program. They had managed to send starships to explore their system. Each of the three continental groups of Fyodoi were in intellectual competiton with each other, until profits and corporate directives got in the way. Small battles began to break out among the three groups, and these battles escalated into a full-scale war. Using the fruits of their technology, the Fyodoi developed weapons of mass-destruction and unleashed them on each other. This war later became known as the Great Cleansing. Soon, the planet Fyodos was reduced to a scarred hulk.The Fyodoi realized that their pride and technology had destroyed the world they loved, and reverted to a primitive society of hunter/gatherers and warriors. The Fyodoi were a loud and boisterous race of stubborn, narrow-minded warriors. (PG2)

Fyodos
This planet, the fourth in the Tatrang System, was a mecca of high technology and beauty until its human population declared war on itself. The planet's other native race, the Galidyns, could only watch in horror as their neighbors unleashed huge weapons of mass destruction on the world. Now, the planet was recovering from the wars. Much of the terrain had nearly recovered, although only the Galidyns remember its former beauty. The humans have reverted to a pre-technology stage of development. The average day on Fyodos lasted 20 local hours, and the year lasted 360 local days. Fyodos had three natural satellites. (PG2)

Fyor
This was one of the most common given names used for human males throughout the galaxy. (GCG)

Fyre, Silver
A former smuggling pal of Han Solo's and a mercenary leader, she commanded the Aquaris Freeholders. At one time, Silver hijacked a load of spice being transported by Solo, and he hasn't trusted her since. Before she officially joined the Alliance, she had been responsible for turning people in to the Empire. While on the planet Kabal, after meeting with Leia Organa, she signed up with the Alliance. Thus, when the Alliance met her on Aquaris, Han was skeptical of her support. However, she proved her loyalty to the Alliance when she rescued the agents from Kraaken, her second-in-command. (CSW)

Fyreflii
This was a species of large, bio-luminescent, flying insects that were native to the forests of the planet Kubindi. (MIS6)

Fyrth System
The asteroid field of this star system was believed to have been the only source of opila crystals, which could used by the ancient Jedi Knights in the construction of a lightsaber. (KOTOR)

Fy-Tor-Ana
This Jedi Knight was known for her split-second reflexes, her grace, and her agility. She was one the foremost instructors in the Art of Movement exercise, and personally trained Obi-Wan Kenobi in its forms. However, she never took a Padawan learner of her own, and she never took an interest in the relationships of other Jedi Masters and their students.

In the wake of the Clone Wars, Fy-Tor-Ana was one of a handful of Jedi who decided to hide on Ilum during the Jedi Purge. Her need for information overcame her, and she left Garen Muln on Ilum and returned to Coruscant, where she hoped to infiltrate the Jedi Temple and learn about the state of the galaxy. When she didn't return, Garen feared that she was dead. Garen relayed his information on Fy-Tor-Ana's plans to Ferus Olin, allowing the younger Jedi to attempt a rescue mission.

It was rumoured that she was being held prisoner in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, but Ferus discovered that this was a lie, meant to attract unsuspecting Jedi to Coruscant. In reality, Fy-Tor-Ana had fled the surface of Coruscant and taken refuge well beneath the crust. She adopted the name Solace, and assumed control of a settlement that was located near a huge underground ocean. When she was later located by Ferus Olin, she refused to dwell on the Jedi Order and its possible future, explaining that her former life was in the past, and of no further consequence.

However, when Ferus explained that Inquisitor Malorum had planted a spy in her midst, Fy-Tor-Ana could not sit back and watch. She agreed to help Ferus and Trever Flume return to the Jedi Temple and eliminate Malorum's chances of locating them. However, when they found themselves trapped, Fy-Tor-Ana was forced to grab Trever and leave Ferus behind, as the former Padawan ensured their escape with his own capture. They returned to her underground settlement, only find themselves in the middle of an attack. She later helped Ferus with a number of missions, including the rescue of Roan Lands and Dona Telamark from the True Justice.

Best-known to her friends as Solace, Fy-Tor-Ana later died while defending Ferus Olin's hidden asteroid base from an attack by Darth Vader. (JQ3, LJ2, LJ3, LJ5, LJ7, LJ10)

This was the rallying cry of the Yuuzhan Vong shapers. (DW)

Fyyar, Galak
This Imperial Admiral was one of the many naval officers who served the remnants of the old Empire during the early years of the New Republic. Fyyar was trained as a weapons specialist, and his designs were considered radical ever for the Empire. Many believed that Fyyar's designs would have eclipsed those of Bevel Lemelisk and Umak Leth, had he developed them during the height of the New Order. One of the most unusual items Fyyar developed was a device that allowed him to infuse a person with the Dark Side of the Force, turning them into Dark Jedi. Although the title of Admiral was honorary, for many years he was in command of the warship Doomgiver. From this ship, Fyyar commanded the operations at his base on the Cairn asteroid. To gain valuable muscle and to assist with his work, Fyyar allied himself with the Dark Jedi Desann. They planned to use Fyyar's invention to attack Luke Skywalker's Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4, some ten years after the Battle of Endor. However, during the battle, Fyyar was confronted by Kyle Katarn aboard the Doomgiver. The Jedi Knight defeated Fyyar and combat, and set out to destroy the ship. By disabling the shields and overloading the reactor, Katarn ensured that the Doomgiver was destroyed, and Admiral Fyyar perished in the explosion. (JK2)

Fyyrsprus
Members of this clumsy, reptilian species were subcontracted to perform work for Dapp Solus and Salem Victory on their custom freighter, the Starcat. After several of the repairs were found to be faulty - in reality, the Happy Blasters got what they paid for, which wasn't much - the technician Mac targeted the Fyyrsprus for extermination. He organized the team's efforts to "repay" the Fyyrsprus for their poor work. (SWJ13)
