Melisma
this female Ryn was one of Droma's sisters. She was part of the group of Ryn which got transported to Gyndine, trying to outrun the Yuuzhan Vong attack. During the New Republic's evacuation of Gyndine, Melisma and three others from her family were allowed to leave the planet on the last rescue ship, and set out on their own to find Droma. They were then stranded on Ruan and forced to work for Salliche Ag, which was claiming that they were helping the refugees out by giving them places to live in return for labor. However, Gaph, another of Droma's kin, worked with R'vanna to forge transport documents and get them off Ruan. They hoped to reach Abregado-rae, but were stranded on Fondor by the crew of the Trevee.

Melne, Dren
this man was a native of Selton, on the planet Naboo, and served the Royal Naboo Security Force shortly before the Battle of Naboo. He held the rank of Lieutenant and was a starfighter pilot within Bravo Squadron. Like his wingmate, Essara Till, he had spent some time away from Naboo in order to gain skills with other starships. They never met while off-planet, but a relationship developed between them after they both returned to Naboo. They tried to keep their personal relationship outside their professional relationship, but Dren was something of an incurable romantic. Shortly before the Battle of Naboo, Dren was offered the chance to work for the governor of Agamar, assembling a new fighter contingent to protect the planet. When Essara chose to remain on Naboo, Dren was forced to act on his own. During the defense of station TFP-9, he revealed that his loyalties had shifted toward Captain Sorran's forces and their mysterious employer. Dren used his piloting skills to attack Echo One, and chased the harried trainee across the heavens in an effort to break her will. Dren also hoped to have Essara order her pilots to stand down, so that several N-1 starfighters could be captured for analysis. Essara was forced to disable his Naboo Police Cruiser with a pair of torpedoes. When Essara continued to defy Dren, and even locked her missile launchers on his ship, Captain Sorran decided that Dren was unable to deliver the N-1 fighters as promised. In return for his failure, Sorran opened fire on Dren's ship and destroyed it, killing Dren in the process. (SFT)

Melodese
this was the native, spoken language of the Melodie race. (PH)

Melodian
this was the native language of the Melodie race. (EGP)

Melodie
this race of intelligent, amphibious humanoids inhabited the warmer climates of Yavin 8's equatorial mountains. They hatched from eggs that were laid by elder Melodies and guarded by Melodie youths until they emerge, starting out life as air-breathing beings which resemble human children. At the age of twenty, all Melodies underwent a transformation - known as the Changing Ceremony - in which they metamorphosed to become an amphibious creature. The metamorphosis could only take place in a ceremonial pool on Yavin 8, and involved the Melodie changing into a mermaid-like creature that was destined to live out its life in the pools of Yavin 8. Their legs merged to form a fish-like tail, and they grew gills on their ribcages. As newborn children, and as newly-transformed adults, the Melodies consumed trico mush until they could digest the silver-backed fish. As a people, the Melodies were unassuming unless provoked, which often happened when a traveler was stranded on Yavin 8. The Melodies valued their privacy, and chose to remain anonymous to the rest of the galaxy. If provoked, Melodies could prove to be skilled hunters, and used their natural ability to move about in the water to track and kill their enemies. Some eighteen years after the Battle of Endor, the Melodies decided to make their presence known, after Anakin Solo befriended the young female known as Lyric. However, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, Yavin 8 was devastated by the alien invaders, and the Melodie civilization was all but exterminated. Only a handful of Melodies were offworld during the attack. (LW, AE, PH, GORW)

Melodium

Melona
this was the seventh month of the Tapani local calendar, which mapped almost directly to the Coruscant local calendar. (PGT)

Meloque
this Ho'Din was a scientist who was studying the unusual environment of the planet Caluula, when it was attacked and captured by the Yuuzhan Vong some 25 years after the Battle of Endor. Meloque had spent a great deal of time among the Yuuzhan Vong, and had learned not only their language but many of their customs. When the Galactic Alliance needed to infiltrate Caluula, Meloque continued to play her role as scientist, and went so far as to obtain an identification lumpen for herself and her companions. Among her team were Han Solo, Judder Page, and Kyp Durron. She was dismayed to learn that the winged-stars were dying mysteriously, and even more dismayed to learn that Wraw had been inserted onto the team to verify the efficiency of a new strain of the Alpha Red virus. Meloque railed against Wraw and the callousness of the Galactic Alliance, but was unprepared for the realization that a group of Yuuzhan Vong Shapers had fled Caluula, more than likely carrying the Alpha Red virus back to Coruscant. (UF)

Meloria
this woman, a former Jedi Knight, grew up on Corellia some thirty years before the Battle of Naboo. She was identified as a potential Jedi within months of being born, and was whisked away to Coruscant for training. However, as she grew older, Meloria became bitter about havign ben taken from her family because of her "predestined fate," and never fully embraced the Jedi Orer as her family. Her prowess with the Force manifested itself in her amaingly fast reflexes, and she found enjoyment only in the more physical aspects of her training. After accidentally killing an innocent bystander during a mission to bring a bounty hunter to justice, she abandoned the Jedi Order and fled to Drall, swearing never to use the Force again. To ensure that she kept this vow, Meloria placed herself into a cryogenic chamber. Preserved for eternity, Meloria maintained a belief that the Force would revivie her, if her skills would be necessary to do a greater good. (CCW)

Meltdown

Meltdown Cafe, The
a well-kept dining establishment in the Corellian sector of Nar Shaddaa's spaceport. It is one of the three most popular hangouts for Corellian spacers, and is known as a great place to get a meal. (DE2)

Melvar
a native of the planet Kuat, Melvar was a former Imperial Navy General who aligned with the Warlord Zsinj shortly after the Empire's defeat at Endor. He was one of what many New Republic Intelligence officers called "patriotic psychopaths," those Imperial officers so dedicated to the Empire that they became unstable and had to be removed from power before they could hurt their subordinates. His fanatic support of the Empire impressed Zsinj, who took him under his wing after Melvar was kicked off the Destabilization task force he was worked on because of his ardor for the Empire. Later, Melvar had platinum blades implanted in his fingers, in place of his fingernails. He took some time to get used to them, as evidenced by the amount of scarring which was present on his face. Melvar was killed on Dathomir by Gethzerion when she used the Dark Side of the Force to eliminate an entire platoon of Imperial stormtroopers and their officers, who were poised to bring Han Solo to Zsinj. (IF, CPL, CTD)

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

Melvosh Bloor
a Kalkal academic, Bloor was a professor of Investigative Politico-Sociology at Beshka University. He came up with the idea of writing an investigative paper on Jabba the Hutt, and petitioned the university for funding. P'tan interrupted, however, and claimed that he should go instead of Bloor, since Bloor was an untenured junior professor. The board agreed with P'tan, and Bloor was forced to remain at the university. When P'tan failed to return on time, the university sent Bloor to Jabba's palace on Tatooine to determine whether or not P'tan was still alive, and to continue the study of Jabba and his crime ring. However, Bloor was waylayed in the tunnels by Salacious Crumb. Crumb brought Bloor before Jabba, in an attempt to humor the Hutt. However, Bloor was a pure academic, not a comedian, and the only joke he knew was one that Jabba had already heard. The Hutt fed Bloor to his pet rancor. (TJP)

Membibi
this small creature, native to the rocky outcroppings found on the planet Ansion, fed almost primarily on insects. Its four-legged body was hairless, with a whiplike tail and a drooping neck that allowed the membibi to keep its snout near the ground. (APS)

Membrosia
this thick, amber-colored liquor was produced by the Colony. It was as potent as it was sweet, and made most beings feel warm throughout their entire bodies. Pure membrosia was produced by a bantha-sized variant of the Kind, and was exuded as a dark fluid from their swollen abdomen. Workers then consumed the fluid and processed it internally, further refining the membrosia into small, waxy balls that were deposited from their own abdomens. The balls were then transported throughout the hive, and were later heated to the melting point and served as a beverage. In the years following the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, a more potent variety of membrosia - known simply as black membrosia - was produced by the Gorog hive. (DN1, DN2)

Membrosia Giver
this was the name given to the immense variants of the Kind that existed solely to produce pure membrosia. About the size of a bantha, the membrosia givers attached themselves to the ceiling of their chamber with their thick legs, and were attended by swarms of workers. As the membrosia giver exuded the raw membrosia in the form of a dark fluid that flowed in large drops from their abdomen, the workers lapped up the drops and further refined them in their own bodies. Membrosia givers obtained sustenance by drawing in nutrients via a group of feeding tubes that surrounded their heads. (DN1)

Memcha-Badawzi
this young Twi'lek female was the daughter of crimelord Abdi-Badawzi. She was spoiled as an only child, and was born on Socorro. Shortly before her eighteenth birthday, she fled the planet in an effort to find her own way. She found work as a spice smuggler, and later joined the Alliance as a fighter pilot and marksman. However, she was captured by the Empire and sent to Vizcarra. During the transport, she was forced to share a cell with an albino Wookiee named Syychi. Memcha saw the Wookiee's resignation to her lot in life, and began speaking of freedom. Her words inspired both of them, and they arranged to have the slaves on board the ship revolt against their Imperial captors. After overtaking the ship and freeing the slaves, Memcha and Syychi fled to Neftali to meet with Abdi-Badawzi. Memcha's father placed her in charge of the Cordel Cove starport on Neftali, with Syychi as her second-in-command. Memcha, like her father, had an unusual skin coloration, with a deep sable pigment to her flesh. (BSS)

MEMD-2
this series of multi-environment mining droids was produced by Industrial Automaton during the New Order. These huge machines measured twenty meters in length and stood eight meters tall. MEMD-2 droids moved about on a pair of heavy-duty treads, which allowed them to navigate virtually any solid terrain. These automata were usually deployed in large groups, making quick work of the extraction and recovery of ores and metals in remote locations. MEMD-2 droids were equipped with a pair of beam drills and a cutting laser to remove unwanted rubble, and they had four heavy lifting arms to gather in their finds. (FBS)

Memit Nadill
this ancient Jedi Master was Empress Teta's most trusted advisor, during the series of unification wars that brought together the seven systems she ruled. Nadill was a regal, green-skinned humanoid with several small tails sprouting from the back of his head. His chin was strong, and was dominated by a large, bony curl at the end. A number of short horns studded his skull. He and Teta believed that both Odan-Urr and Jori Daragon were correct in predicting the imminent Sith attack, and began readying their own forces. Nadill rallied the Jedi to his cause, and led the Jedi forces that defended Coruscant from Naga Sadow's warriors. When Gav Daragon broke Sadow's concentration, Nadill realized that much of the attacking force was illusory - Sith magic kept it and the real warriors going. They were able to dispel the illusions and turned the tide of battle. Nadill fought with the Force, eliminating the Sith threat from Coruscant. (GAS, FOSE)

Mem'Kabarr
this dense forest was located on the planet Almania. (EGP)

Memnii
this is a Caamasi term which describes any memory that becomes strong and almost tangible to them, such as the birth of a child or meeting someone famous. Because of the strength of the memnii, which some Caamasi describe as nearly holographic but much more tangible, they can also be shared with others through the mingling of genetic material. This ability to pass memnii seems to fade after three or four generations of separation. The Caamasi also discovered that they could share memnii with Jedi Knights who became their friends. (IJ)

Memorial Corridor
this expansive hallway was created in the Imperial Palace on Coruscant after the Galactic Civil War was ended. It contained a large number of holographic statuary depicting the heroes of the Alliance, and was located just outside the main Senate Chamber. A large sign was hung in the corridor which proclaimed the number of days since the New Republic had fired a shot at an enemy. The sign was removed in the days following the Yevethan Purge, when Republic ordered the Fifth Battle Group to blockade Doornik-319. Behn-kihl-nahm ordered the sign removed until the conflict was over. (BTS, SOL)

Memory Bone Chamber
this room is a sacred place to most Trandoshan males. It is in these chambers that the males store the bones of their victims.

The bones of other opponents are stored for remembrance and reflection. Each chamber is lit with a collection of sacred candles, to highlight the many conquests to whatever gods the male worships. (MA)

Memory Capsule
produced in the wake of the destruction of Alderaan, Memory Capsules were used by the survivors to leave small gifts in the asteroid field found where the planet used to be. Survivors, in a ritual that became known as Returning, would bring the capsules with them. They would fill the capsules with items to honor their dead, and eject them into the asteroids. (BW)

Memory Droid
produced by SoroSuub, this stationary automaton was developed to store astonishing amounts of information. They were also quite portable, lacking any form of locomotion but easily moved from location to location. Three black memory cores surround the droid's outer surface, each with a Kraren XI Superprocessor to help it manage the information it contained. These droids required constant cooling, and were given built-in heat-dissipation systems. (EGD)

Memory Flush
also called a memory wipe, this procedure involves erasing the accumulated data and programming in a droid or computer. (SW)

Memory Moth
this species of flying insect was native to the planet New Holstice. Memory moths were believed to be almost immortal, and they were capable of repeating a short phrase with patterned beating of their wings. It was for this reason that the inhabitants of New Holstice used memory moths when they created a wondrous monument to the Jedi Knights. A new moth was added to the display when a Jedi was killed, and the Jedi's name was whispered to the moth as it was released. In this way, the moth kept the memory of the Jedi's sacrifice alive for all to see. (RBJ)

Memory of Ithor
this New Republic Interdictor cruiser was one of the many ships assigned to General Wedge Antilles and the Mon Mothma, during the final stages of the New Republic's battle against the Yuuzhan Vong. It was commanded by Pash Cracken at the time. During the final stages of Operation Trinity, the Memory of Ithor took massive amounts of damage from Yuuzhan Vong warships. Most of the crew as able to evacuate before the ship exploded in a mighty fireball. (FP)

Memory Plaque
this ancient information storage device was used several millennia before the Battle of Yavin. These crystalline plates were impregnated with data storage devices, and could contain relatively huge amounts of information. However, the technology to read the information was lost over time as newer mechanisms for data storage were discovered. Only a few universities and archaeological corporations managed to save plaque readers for modern use. (SWJ15)

Memory Wipe
this was the term used to describe the regular erasure of certain parts of a droid's computer memory. Ostensibly, a memory wipe removed all personality quirks and provided a clean code base on which to upgrade a droid's programming. Many droid owners used memory wipes to maintain stability in their droids. Most intelligent droids feared memory wipes, since they deprived them of "life." (SW, WOTC)

Memory-plastic
this form of plastic was developed for the medical industry, where it was used to create sutures for small wounds. In addition to retaining a given shape, memory-plastic was also biodegradable, and would dissolve in a week's time if kept clean and free from germs. (MJH)

Memo-wire
an out-dated form of data and information storage, memo-wire was a thin wire that was specifically designed to hold encrypted data. It could be wound into spools and transported quite easily, although it required a bulky reader to recover and view the data. (HSL)

The average mem-stik will hold about 14 Bz of data. In order to remove the mem-stik and transport the data, it must be connected to a portable power source. (CFG)

Menagerie, The
this collection of unique galactic creatures was maintained by the Five. It was contained within the confines of the Hellhoop.

Menahu
this was the native langauge of the Menahuun race. (UANT)

Menahuun
this race of furred humanoids was believed to have been extinct by the xenoscientists of the Old Republic. However, the Menahuun race managed to thrive on their homeworld of Lamaredd, evolving over many millennia before the arrival of offworlders nearly destroyed them. The planet Lamaredd was discovered by the crew of a starship dispatched by Outer Rim Oreworks, which had to crashland on the planet. The survivors of the crash, led by Hugo Bartyn, eventually prospered in their settlement of Bartyn's Landing, and began to consider the Menahuun as pests and nuisances. Many Menahuun were killed for sport, and those that managed to escape the predation fled into the wilderness. Their once-peaceful existence shattered, the Menahuun began building up their collective strength, hoping one day to take back their homeworld from the settlers. During the 500 years leading up to the Battle of Yavin, their civilization had decayed into a competitive tribal society which came as a result of their struggle for survival. The Menahuun chose to re-emerge shortly after the Battle of Naboom after chafing under the predations of Guther Bartyn. The average Menahuun stood just over a meter in height, and their bodies were covered with wiry fir. Their long limbs and hands with opposable digits allowed the Menahuun to move swiftly through the trees. (UANT, GMR7)

Under the guise of Mendegar, she earned a position as an Imperial bounty hunter and took contracts which were brought against her former employers on Deysum III. After wiping out the corrupt officials who destroyed her life, Mendegar was hired by Captain Kullan Velerinden as a hired gun. Rumors told of a romantic relationship between then, but Mendegar maintained a strictly business relationship with Velerinden. (SWJ15)

Mendicat
a scrap mining and refining station under Imperial control during the Galactic Civil War, it fell out of its orbit and was destroyed when Sulamar misprogrammed its computer tracking system. The station fell into a star, and Sulamar barely survived himself. After fleeing the remnants of the Empire, Sulamar twisted the story of Mendicat to puff up his false General's rank. He claimed that he commanded a huge massacre at the station, claiming it a victory for the Empire. (DS)

Mensix Mining Facility
this mining facility was one of the few that remained active on the planet Mustafar, in the wake of the Clone Wars. According to Imperial propaganda, many mines on Mustafar were badly damaged in an industrial accident, a story that covered up the destruction caused by Darth Vader. However, the Mensic facility was one of a handful that were kept barely operational by the Empire, to provide raw materials for the construction of the first Death Star. Vader himself came to the facility to enforce the production of more and more output from the facility, forcing chief adminstrator Milo to agree to a deal in which the facility produced larger amounts of raw material for little or no increase in pay or supplies. (SWGAL)

this man served as the Prex of the Corporate Sector Authority during the height of the New Order. He was investigated on charges of corporate espionage by Fiolla, after the office of the Auditor-General discovered he had been selling CSA secrets to the Empire. Meplin's scheme was convoluted, as he used Commex as a front for his actions. Naven Crel nearly caught up with him, but was killed on Abo Dreth by Akeeli Somerce, who was working for Meplin.

Mer Stodiz
this Sullustan was one of the founders of the Verga Mer Mining Company, along with Verga Nus.

(LFC, WOTC)

Mer, Duttes
this short, squat, gnarled human served as the provincial governor of Rafa IV during the early years of the New Order. Duttes Mer was working with the Tund Sorcerer Rokur Gepta to try and find the Mindharp of the lost Sharu race, hoping to gain complete control of the Rafa System and its exports. The pair learned about the Bearer and the Emissary after hiring Ottdefa Osuna Whett to investigate the legends and history of the Toka and the Sharu. It was Gepta who planned to set up Vuffi Raa to be the Emissary. Mer and Gepta then sent Whett to the Oseon System to find a gambler who fit the description of the Bearer. He succeeded in finding Lando Calrissian, whom Mer and Gepta realized was a perfect candidate for the Bearer. As soon as Lando arrived on Rafa IV, Mer had his deputies arrest him on trumped-up charges of transporting mynocks into the system and illegal landing. Mer then gave the smuggler a chance for freedom, but only if he agreed to help locate the Mindharp. Gepta offered Lando a load of life-crystals as well, which Duttes Mer was reluctant to part with. When Lando eventually returned with the Mindharp, Mer decided to keep it for himself. He believed that its purpose was to control the minds of others, and he activated in hopes of controlling even Rokur Gepta. Unfortunately for Mer, the Mindharp was not the wondrous tool they had hoped it was. Instead, it set about freeing the intelligences contained in the life-crystals in the Rafa System and rearranging the system to allow the Sharu to return. The Mindharp then drained the life energy from Mer, who appeared to "melt" into the Mindharp, and was never seen again. (LCM)

this Mon Calamari was one of the Commanders of the Separatist armed forces, serving under Count Dooku during the Battle of Kamino. Considered one of the greatest Mon Calamari commanders of his time, Merai was offered a chance to win the struggle for Kamino by the Corporate Alliance. A datafile containing the coordinates of the main reactor for the Kaminoans' cloning facility had been captured, and Merai was offered the chance to destroy it. Success would mean that the supply of clone troopers would be cut off, all but ensuring a Separatist victory. With little background and no supporting evidence, Merai had to act on gut instinct. The Battle of Kamino began well for the Separatists, until Merai's ship was shot down. This only hardened his resolve to act, and Merai himself took the Shark out to destroy the reactor. However, the information proved to be false, and Merai found himself surrounded by Jedi starfighters. Rather than worry about the reactor, Merai drew the Jedi away from his forces, allowing them to continue to pound the defenses of the Kaminoans. When the battle appeared lost, Merai sacrificed himself to allow his ships to escape. In a last-ditch effort, he flew the Shark into the midst of the hyperspace rings used by the Jedi Delta-7 Aethersprite fighters, destroying many while giving his forces the opportunity to retreat.

Merak
this native of the planet Alderaan was one of the few who were off-planet when the Death Star destroyed the world. He later joined the Alliiance, and served with Stevan Makintay. They helped orchestrate the first rebel uprising in Arginall City, on Makintay's homeworld of Hargeeva, and Merk became good friends with the merchant Grathal. Later, Merak returned to Hargeeva to confront Ketrian Altronel with the truth behind Mak's disappearance. (SWJ8)
