Glayyd
one of Ammuud's seven major clans, the Glayyd clan was the largest and most powerful on Ammuud during the early years of the New Order. Like all Ammuud clans, it was ruled by a Mor. During the early years of the New Order, the Mor Glayyd discovered that the Reesbon clan had begun negotiations with Zlarb and his slavers for a portion of their profits, in exchange for ships and services. The Mor Glayyd became angry at this, and vowed to expose the operation to Odumin. In order to prevent this, the Reesbon clan arranged for the Mor Glayyd to be poisoned, forcing his young son, Ewwen, to assume the rank of Mor. The slavers hoped that Ewwen could be forced to step down as Mor, allowing a more pliant individual to assume the position. The hope was that a new Mor would allow the slavers to eliminate the information stored in Glayyd family records, which were equipped with a self-destruct system to prevent tampering. It was later assumed that Zlarb had been the Mor Glayyd's poisoner, since traces of Malkite antidotes were found in the bloodstream of several Glayyd food-tasters. Meanwhile, Ewwen was able to retain his position as Mor when Han Solo stepped in as his champion, and the slavery ring was smashed by Fiolla and Odumin. (HSR)

Glim worms hunted by detected the subtle vibrations caused by the movement of their prey, and had only to come in contact with they prey in order to catch it. Their muscles could then be used to extende their sharp scales, literally grabbing their prey.

All the prey captured by a glim worm was eaten whole. (COG)

Glitterstim
this form of spice was mined on Kessel, and was one of the most plentiful forms of spice found in the galaxy. Originally discovered on Kessel a few millennia before the Battle of Yavin, glitterstim was a byproduct of the digestion of the spice grub. In its inert form, it crystallized into small, transparent, black fibers. The fibers appeared to be almost alive, twisting and curling after being removed from their rocky veins. It took a delicate hand to uncurl the fibers, because although the fibers were flexible, they were also very brittle. Individual fibers were stored in light-tight containers. This work was time- and labor-intensive, and contributed directly to the high cost of glitterstim on the market. When exposed to light it ripened, becoming a pearly-blue color when ready for use. When consumed, it crackled and sparked due to contact with the light and saliva. Glitterstim was the only known form of spice which heightened the user's latent mental powers. Despite its classification as an illegal recreational drug, glitterstim also had some medicinal uses. A user who consumed too much glitterstim often went blind, and the substance was known to drive a Bith mad. Production of glitterstim increased during the era of the New Order, when the mines of Kessel were populated with criminal workers. Subsequently, addiction to glitterstim also increased during this time, and many historians theorized that the Empire sought to control the criminal element of the galaxy by addicting them to spice. (JS, JASB, TPS, GORW)

Glitteryll
this was an unusual mixture of glitterstim and ryll spices, created on Nar Shaddaa during the last decades of the Old Republic. The Corporate Sector Authority was rumored to have been interested in further development of this substance, and the Jedi Knights dispatched Quinlan Vos and his apprentice, Aayla Secura, to investigate. They were both captured and had their memories erased, in order to cover up the secret of glitteryll. After Quinlan returned to Ryloth with Vilmarh Grahrk, they discovered that energy spider eggs from Kessel had been transported to Ryloth and stored in the ryll caves. The spiders were fed ryll spice, and then exuded webbing made almost purely of glitteryll. Quinlan later learned that Asante' Vos had been one of the parties behind the development of glitteryll. After the energy spiders killed Asante', Quinlan destroyed all the spiders in order to completely cut off the supply of glitteryll. (OWS, SWT)

The diorama was made up of a huge collection of blaze bugs, with different bugs beating their wings at different speeds, thereby creating a way to indicate what each bug represented. Low-frequency thrumming represented a Yuuzhan Vong warship, a sharp drone was used for New Republic craft, a steady buzz indicated Imperial forces, and a shrill whine was used for other infidel craft. A Yuuzhan Vong could move through the display, and the bugs simply moved out of the way and then returned to their original position.

These scales are normally a greenish-yellow color, but this color darkens to brown as the Glottalphib ages and the scales begin to fall out. These scales form an armor-like skin which can resist most blaster bolts. A unique characteristic of the Glottalphib is their respiratory system, which produces ignitable gases as a byproduct.

It was believed by Trioculus that the glove also gave the wearer the power to choke a victim without actually touching them, although this was proved false when Trioculus couldn't do it.
