an alien creature composed of gelatinous, green flesh topped with a number of bulb-tipped stalks, the meduza is minimally sentient. The creature obtains its food by stinging its prey with one or more of the upper stalks, producing an electric shock.

Medx homunculi
this species of clever mammal was once native to the jungles of Gravlex Med. Resembling thirty-centimeter-tall humanoids, the Medx homunculi moved through the trees with a chittering form of speech that many races found grating. The Anx were fond of telling stories of human visitors to Gravlex Med who came upon an Anx, a Shusugaunt, and a Medx. The humans immediately discounted the Anx and Shusugaunt as simply beasts, and tried to communicate with the Medx. This allowed the Shusugaunt to plot to kill the human, although the Anx eventually stepped in to stop the murder. (GMR7)

After a reckles flight from the gladiator pits to the station's hangar bays, Meeko nearly escaped again. However, Jango managed to disable the weapon's systems on Meeko's ship and captured him once again. Meeko was returned to Oovo IV, with a second life sentence added to his existing prison time.

The statuettes turned out to be forgeries, even after Lando was forced to save the Meeks from a marauding rancor.

Meelo led her inept comrades in a daring escape, which was bungled almost from the start. In the resulting chaos, Meelo managed to rescue her friend, but the Jawa known as Keth-Keth decided that they needed to cover their escape. Screaming "Free Kashyyyk" as loud as his vocoder would project, Keth-Keth called for people to rally around the Wookiee Liberation Front. Although it was a simple ruse, the Wookiee Liberation Front received a lot of press in the local holonewscasts, and eventually became a legitimate organization that funneled credits and supplies to help the Wookiees of Kashyyyk in their attempt to ousted the Separatist forces that were trying to take control of their homeworld.

Meenon
this Senali was the ruler of his people, some twelve years prior to the Battle of Naboo. The Senali preferred not to use titles, and Meenon was actually more of a figurehead than a true ruler. King Frane of Rutan accused Meenon of forcing Prince Leed of Rutan to stay on Senali, despite the fact that he had reached his sixteenth birthday. Meenon protested, claiming that Leed had acted on his own. He implored Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi to make Frane understand the situation, which quickly escalated when Frane imprisoned Meenon's daughter, Yaana. Meenon, generally a peaceful man, threatened to retaliate if Frane persisted. When it was discovered that Leed was, in fact, acting on his own, the Jedi also discovered that Leed's brother, Taroon, had the skills to rule in his place. After getting all parties to talk to one another, King Frane realized that Meenon had been truthful and that Leed truly enjoyed Senali.

While the Republic recognized the Meerians as a people and as the true owners of Bandomeer's resources, the Meerians were never given full control of the mining operations which were established on the planet. Instead, the Meerians merely shared in the profits. The Meerians evolved over time with adapt to the smoggy conditions brought on by excessive mining operations. Their noses and lungs worked together to filter out particulate matter and certain toxic chemicals. The hair of a Meerian individual was actually formed from metallic elements. (RF, WOTC, GORW)

The Er'stacians believed that they could not be at peace until one clan took full possession of the Megalith, which they referred to as the Venerable One. Thus, every Er'stacian clan was almost continually at war with every other clan. Mace Windu, at the urging of the Jedi Council, traveled to Er'stacia to negotiate a peace among the clans, before they committed genocide. However, in order to appease the dim-witted Er'stacians, Master Windu was forced to destroy the Megalith.

this native of the planet Adin was a former Imperial supporter who was elected to the New Republic's Senate by his people, during the initial stages of Adin's membership in the Republic. Although Leia Organa-Solo doubted that his election was fair, she nevertheless was forced to recognize his position. Like others of his race, Meido was a thin being with a crimson face which sported thin, white lines that grew brighter as he angered. Meido had two fingers on each hand. He admitted to supporting the Empire during its height, but proclaimed that he was in support of Leia's Republic. When Dolph bombed the Senate Assembly Chamber, it was Meido who supported Leia's attempts to investigate the bombing. However, he was really manipulating her into a position where the official investigation would not meet his expectations. Meido called for an independent investigation, with himself as chairman, claiming that the official search was too slow and somewhat biased. This fit into Dolph's plans perfectly, for it allowed Dolph to plant more incriminating evidence against Leia and Han Solo. In the aftermath of the bombing, Meido's Senate position was officially voted on, and he was granted full Senatorial status. He then brought forth circumstantial evidence that linked Han Solo to the Senate bombing. He voiced strong opposition to Leia's rule, and condemned her for leaving the Republic to find Dolph on Almania. However, after Dolph's plans were exposed, Meido admitted his part in the plan and was very apologetic to Leia. (TNR)

Mekel was one of the many apprentices who were training under Uthar Wynn when a group of Jedi Knights managed to infiltrate Korriban. The Jedi were searching for clues to the whereabouts of Darth Malak, and were accepted as apprentices alongside Mekel. Mekel resented the intrusion, and spent as much time trying to sabotage his fellow apprentices as he did studying. When the former Master Jorak Uln captured Mekel and the Jedi in the tomb of Tulak Hord, Uln pitted them against each other in a devious competition.

Melee served on Gardulla's cleaning staff, until her skills as a mechanic earned her a position on Gardulla's garage. With her knowledge, Melee outwardly stated that Anakin Skywalker's homemade podracer would never fly. Secretly, however, Melee dreamed that Anakin would win the Boonta Eve podrace and gain his freedom, so that he could later return to Tatooine and free the slaves. After Anakin's departure, Melee became friends with Shmi Skywalker, who taught the young girl to read and write. After Gardulla's death, Melee was sold to Bryyn Woolery, although she remained in Mos Espa for several years before Wollery moved to Mos Eisley.
