Bindu
one of the survivors of the Battle of Hoth, Bindu was evacuated on the Bright Hope. (TBH)

Bindy Bend
this location, near Ben's Mesa on Tatooine, was the site of an ancient river delta. (IWE1)

Bing, Calus
this megonite harvester was working with Sparu to steal megonite from Lady Tarkin and sell it on the black market. They had arranged to meet Han Solo on Phelarion, and transfer the megonite to the Millennium Falcon. When Leia Organa was stranded on Phelarion and became one of Lady Tarkin's servants, she agreed to help them send a message to Han, although she was unaware that it was Han himself. However, in order to escape from Imperial forces gathered on Phelarion, Calus and Sparu were forced to destroy the megonite. They reached the Falcon just ahead of the Imperials and fled off-planet. (CSWEA)

Binga
this being was a native of Tammuz-an during the early years of the New Order. (DCAR)

Bin-Garda-Zon
this Cerean was a rogue and a pirate, easily distinguished by his lack of two fingers on his left hand. Instead of raiding the spacelanes of his home system, though, Bin kept to his homeworld and raided the villages of his compatriots. Among the treasures Bin hoped to steal were male Cerean children and well over 100 wives, in the hope that his band would continue to grow in influence and power. Bin and his band of female pirates held the small villages of Cerea under his control for more than two decades, until Ki-Adi-Mundi returned to his homeworld after completing his early training as a Jedi Knight. Ki had been charged with eliminating the threat of Bin-Garda-Zon, but returned home to find him a vindictive old man who had been bested in the khana by one of the younger woman of his band. When the younger generation of pirates decided to submit to Ki's laws after their leader was bested by Ki himself, Bin furiously refused to let go of his control. He swore at the young Jedi, but was unable to sway his former band and was disgraced. (PTR)

Bingo Mehndra
this walrus-like being was a noted Balti smuggler who liked jizz music as much as Jabba the Hutt. Bingo and Jabba got into a dispute several years before the Battle of Endor, and Jabba never forgot it. He sent the Max Rebo Band to Hoth, ostensibly as a peace offering, to entertain Bingo on his Spawning Day celebration. Unknown to the band, their amplifiers had been filled with explosives, set to go off as soon as their set was over. Although the band managed to escape by using holographic images of themselves, the bombs went off as planned, killing Bingo and his entire smuggling operation. (T6)

Bini
this tall woman was a member of the Rock Workers, toiling in the quarries of New Apsolon some twelve years before the Battle of Naboo. Bini was killed when Balog's forces attacked their base of operations. The Absolutes stole all the miners' explosives, weapons, and supplies, and killed every living being in the facility. (DOH)

Binjinphant
an extremely rare, arboreal marsupial with a long body. (DCAR)

Binjitt, Del
this nervous young man was an agent of the Army of Life. He was primary contact of the team of freelance mercenaries hired by Talbrek to transport a cargo of clodhopper eggs to Stend IV. He provided them with the cargo aboard the YT-1300 freighter, the Majestic Gundark. (WOA2)

B'inka Fibuna
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)

Binka Tree
a tree found on the planet Agamar. (XW)

Binks
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 "cleaver guide". (GCG)

Bink's Woe
according to a humorous story that appeared on the HoloNet during the years following the Battle of Naboo, this was the name used by George R. Binks to describe the desert island on which he was stranded with his wife and only son, Jar Jar Binks. (T20)

Binn Ibes
this Jedi Master was a contemporary of Qui-Gon Jinn. (CT)

Binring Biomedical Product
this Imperial-aligned corporation produced field rations and other foodstuffs for Imperial troops. After it was "nationalized" by Warlord Zsinj. Binring became involved in the genetic manipulation of several non-human species in an effort to adapt them to different environments and occupations. It was based on the planet Saffalore, in the city of Lurark. When Zsinj discovered that there had been at least test subject who escaped from the facility, he ordered it closed down and all laboratory work transferred to the Iron Fist. The New Republic sent in Wraith Squadron, which successfully infiltrated the headquarters of Binring, but found that Zsinj had already moved much of the facility. However, they were able to capture Doctor Edda Gast in the attempt. (WS, SOC)

Binspo
this is a casino game found on many luxury liners. (RM)

Binx, Jantaa
this human Floubette dancer was thrown out of the Marqua Spas for performing the dance at the annual Panelan feast. The dance is done primarily by avian races, but is considered a revolting display when performed by humans. Binx was the only known human performer at the time. (SWJ9)

Binyare
this pirate gang was active in the Corellian System during the height of the New Order. They operated from a base that was hidden in the area of space known as the Trifecta Star. (SWGAL)

Binyare Razorcat
this area of space, located near the Corellian System, was known as the favored hunting grounds of the Binyare pirate gang. During the height of the New Order, the area was also home to the Hidden Daggers. (SWGAL)

Bio-Assault Spray
this ancient chemical weapon was considered illegal in many systems during the years following the Great Sith War. Designed for use by combat droids, the Bio-Assault Spray worked by breaking down whatever it came in contact with at the molecular level, leaving just a grey slime behind. (KOTOR2)

Bio-cap
this emergency medical device was designed to assist field doctors who dealt with severed limbs. The bio-cap was placed over the remaining stump, keeping flesh and bone alive until a bionic prosthesis could be attached. (SWJ9)

Biocell Storage
developed by the Empire, this was a form of biological storage device that was used on some of the most sophisticated droids. It allowed for access times that rivaled those of human beings. (AFA)

Bio-cocoon
this unusual capture device was produced by Dendratis Biological Exports, Incorporated, during the height of the New Order. Resembling a 1.5-meter-square piece of cloth, the bio-cocoon was actually impregnated with a laye rof dormant microorganisms. When set as a trap for large game, the bio-cocoon was activated by the pressure of a creature stepping on it. Once activated, the microorganisms swarmed over the creature, securing it within a porous cocoon of organisms which allowed it to breathe. (GFT)

BioCruiser
this huge ship, built by a team of beings gathered from worlds which had been ecoclogically damaged, roamed the galaxy during the last decades of the Old Republic. Originally conceived of by Kad Chun and the natives of Telos, the BioCruiser and its creators vowed to never land on another world, nor allow another ship to dock with the craft. The BioCruiser was built from various pieces and parts salvaged from other ships, and was laden with a wide variety of plants and minerals that allowed those beings who lived on it to be almost self-sufficient. Fuel and other important materials were obtained at regular stops at prearranged worlds. The ship and its leaders were investigated by the Jedi Knights, two years after the Battle of Naboo, when the Senate feared that individuals were being held on the ship against their will. They also feared that the beings' personal fortunes were being misused, instead of being placed into a communal fund. Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker were sent to the ship, and discovered that Vox Chun had been secretly working with the remnants of Offworld Mining corporation to evacuate the ship and steal the treasury, as part of a plan known as Broken Circle. The ship would then be destroyed in the "accident," providing a plausible explanation for the loss of the treasury. However, due to the efforts of the Jedi, Uni, and Rhe Pabs, the BioCruiser held together long enough to reach Tentrix. (JAD)

Biodroid
these bio-engineered constructs were created by the Krakai to attack any Charr Ontee or Yapi which attempted to gain access to DarkStryder's fortress, on the planet Kathol. Standing three meters in height, the biodroids were armed with horned claws, and were bred to fight until the were killed. (E)

Bio-Droid
first developed by Cestus Cybernetics, this form of droid was produced after the discovery of "living circuits", just before the onset of the Clone Wars. Using this new technology, droids could be manufactured with the ability to learn about and anticipate an opponent's moves, giving them an advantage that most droids had never been given. The technology for bio-droids was provided to the Confederacy of Independent Systems, to augment the already formidable droids armies of the Separatists. Originally, bio-droids were to be used as security forces. Count Dooku, however, immediately recognized their potential as combat droids, and ordered millions of them. (HIV)

Bio-Encoder
produced by MerenData, this device was used to treat the surface of credit chips with a genetic culture formed from the cells of the owner. When treated this way, the credits could only be handled by their owner. If any being whose biochemical signature didn't match that of the owner happened to steal the credit chips marked with the culture, their skin would begin to discolor and experience searing pain. (GFT)

Bio-Encryptor
developed by Servenidain Securities, Limited, this device allowed a being to encode data onto a small chip for transport. The chip was then encapsulated in a gel-coated capsule, which was swallowed just before transport. Once at the being's destination, the capsule was expelled and placed back into the bio-encryptor for access. The chip itself was encoded by the user, while the gel capsule was covered with a chemical that hindered digestion. A time-released chemical was added to ensure the capsule was regurgitated. (GFT)

Bio-energy Array
this prototype biological weapon was developed by the Qektoth Confederation. Like many of their other designs, the bio-energy array has the ability to pass through conventional shields to attack the target below. The weapon discharges a blue, lightning-like tangle of energy at its target, much like the pulse from an ion cannon. However, the weapon requires so much power to operate that it effectively drains the starship of power. Shields and life support suffer until the weapon can be recharged. (KO)

Biofiber
this bio-engineered material was used to create the organs and muscles of a human-replica droid. (FH2)

Bioflesh
the synthetic flesh used to cover bionic prosthetics. (TME)

Biogears Unlimited
this bioengineering company, bankrolled by the Empire, produced the first bio-hounds for Imperial use. (CFG)

Bio-Guard
this was the brand name of Xerithin Chemical Combination's BGA-900 defense weapon. (GFT)

Bio-hound
this Imperial target tracking construct is the lowest form of cyborg created. The bio-hound is a malleable blob of organic material which can change shape as the environment dictates. Impregnated in the flesh of the bio-hound are stimuli receptors which send data to a bio-comp interface. A bio-hound is "programmed" by providing it with a genetic clue from the intended target: skin cells and hair are the most common. The bio-hound is then let loose on the planet where the target exists, and it begins testing the environment for signs of the target. The bio-hound is semi-intelligent, and can change shape or solve simple puzzles to maintain its search. Once it finds its target, the bio-hound "tags" the target with a clear, odorless liquid tracer that can be easily detected by Imperial agents. Some bio-hounds are equipped with acidic poisons in place of the tracer liquid, making them deviously simple assassins. (CFG)

Bioinduction
ostensibly developed by Hugo Cutter, this technology involved shooting a beam of specialized energy at certain humanoid species. The energy beam shut down their internal systems and rendered them safely unconscious. The technology worked on large species, like Gigorans, but not on Humans, Rodians, or Devaronians. (SWJ4)

Biolag
this gas giant was the second planet in the Corulus System. It was orbited by seven moons. (CCW)

Bio-lense
this synthetic material is used to cover and color the iris of a humanoid eye. They can be manufactured to exactly conform to the shape of the iris and pupil, and are used by spies and undercover agents to disguise their true eye color and shape. (RD)

Biological Athletes Union
this group of living sportsbeings formed during the last decades of the Old Republic, when more and more sponsors began supporting sporting events which involved automata. They protested the formation of the professional Nuna-Ball League, and found an unlikely ally in the Committee Against Non-Sentient Abuse. (HNN5)

Biolum
this Ithorian substance was used as a fuel source for torches and other portable sources of light. It consisted of a fluid medium - often simply water with nutrients added - into which phosphorescent plankton was placed. This plankton glowed with its own internal light, providing a virtually free source of illumination. (WOTC)

Biomold
this microscopic mold grew in the oceans of Baraboo. (CCW)

Bioniip Laboratories
this manufacturer of bio-comp implants was based on Bespin's Cloud City. The leaders of the company were given positions on the city's Exex during their tenure. (GG2, CCC)

Bio-plasmatic Gel
developed by the scientists of the Qektoth Confederacy, this substance was a highly corrosive acid blended with a sticky gel. When launched in torpedo casings against a starship, the casing exploded and sprayed the gel all over the target's hull. The gel stuck to the hull, which the acidic corrosive began to eat through the metal plating. Unless removed, the gel eventually ate through the hull and breached the ship. The gel lost strength over a short period of time, and could be burned off the hull during passage through an atmosphere. (KR)

Bioscan
this device was a scanning and diagnostics package developed for use by doctors and field medics, and allowed them to identify and analyze the biological condition of a living being. Originally developed in a joint effort by Athakam MedTech and the Rhinnal State Medical Academy, this walk-in device was equipped with a doppraymagno scanner, a vapor sampler, a toxin sensor, and a full-range energy scanner. All these systems combined to produce a complete bioscan of a patient, providing a wealth of information on their physical well-being. (SESB, EGW)

Biosh
this planet, the second world in the Hoth System, was a barren ball of rock. (PH)

Bio-stabilizer Implant
developed more than 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, a bio-stabilizer implant was essentially a micro-computer that was imbedded in a being's body to analyze the contents of the circulatory system. Using sophisticated algorithms, the implant removed undesirable elements from the blood in an effort to maintain stability. The implant could also monitor surges and drops in nerve transmission rates. (KOTOR)

Bio-stabilizer Mask
similar in many respects to a bio-stabilizer implant, the bio-stabilizer mask could analyze circulation patterns through the skin, as well as monitor breathing through chemical sensors, and reactions through eye movements. Whereas the implant was surgically imbedded into a being's body, the mask was worn on the outside of the body. In this way, the mask was essentially a complete environmental system, preventing toxins from ever reaching the wearer. (KOTOR)

Bio-Substantive Paste
this nutrient paste was developed for explorers and athletes, to help sustain them when regular foord sources were unavailable. By smearing the paste on their skin, individuals could absorb nutrients to replace those that were lost during physical activity. (SWGAL)

BioTech Industries
this Corellian company produced some of the finest cyborg technologies for use in many applications. It also produced medpacs and other first-aid packages. BioTech was jointly owned by Neuro-Saav and the Tagge Company, and was behind only Chiewab Amalgamated Pharmaceuticals Company and Athakam MedTech in total sales volume for many decades. Marl Semtin arranged for an Imperial raid on the corporation's Ambria campus, in hopes of obtaining a pair of human eyes to replace the ones he lost. He was forced to settle on a pair of Trandoshan eyes instead. (RPG, CFG, HXW, CRO, EGW, NEGW)

Biotic Grenade
this was an explosive used in many mining operations. (DR)

Bio-Tractant Repulsor
developed by Brisallon Chemical Consolidated, this spray canister used a chemical compound to deter an attacker by soothing their nerves. This personal safety device was only good for use on specific races and species, since the chemicals required to induce the feeling of calm were specially mixed. (GFT)

Bipopa Bogzider
this Aqualish ship captain owned and operated the Nanda's Luck during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Known to his comrades as Bippi, he was a gruff master who rewarded loyalty and service among his crew. His years of experience on the oceans of Ando were evident on his body, which was scarred and repaired in many places. Bippi had an artificial leg, an archaic and painful prosthetic eye, and a cybernetic hand which could be fitted with a variety of implements. He was badly injured when the Nanda's Luck was attacked by Pyash Yopayomba, the Pirate Queen of Ando, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. Only the efforts of Sissalik helped Bippi survive the initial attack. Yopayomba confronted them both, and admitted that she thought Sissalik's bravery and defiance was admirable. She agreed to repair the Nanda's Luck and supply men to replace those that were lost in the fighting, in exchange for one thing. Bippi surrendered to her, hoping that he could salvage the situation. However, Yopayomba took her own initiative and cut off Bippi's head. She growled that none of her people ever surrendered, no matter what the situation, then made Sissalik the Captain of the vessel as her servant. (PH)

Bippi
see Bipopa Bogzider (PH)

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

Birdlizard
a term used to describe the Ishi Tib race. (ROTJN)

Birdloe
this Imperial Lieutenant was one of the highly-skilled stormtroopers working for Captain Sodarra during the search for Darth Vader's body, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. It was later revealed that Birdloe was also a spy, working for Governor Vellam. Birdloe tried to waylay Sodarra's plans to return Vader to Coruscant when they landed on Shador. There, Birdloe shot Taslo Deville and tried to kill Sodarra in the process. When he was unable to do so, Birdloe fled the scene. (SL)

Biree
this Bothan name was given to newborn females. Translated into Basic, it meant "graceful." (GCG, WOTC)

Birgaan
this was the Mandalorian word for "backpack." (OWS)

Birhan
this man was one of the many barq farmers who struggled to earn a living on the planet Qiilura, during the last years of the Old Republic. Birhan allowed Etain Tur-Mukan to stay in his barn for several days, after she escaped the attack that claimed the life of her Jedi Master, Kast Fulier. (RCHC)

Biril
one of two Invid pirates, along with Laanars, who posed as stewards aboard the Tinta Palette shortly before the Invids attacked it. (IJ)

Birjis System
this star system was best-known for the unusual mu trees which grew on the moon of Isamu. (SWJ15)

Birkalz
this was a common name among the Filordi race. (UANT)

Birkby
an Imperial freighter under the protection of the shuttle Krayt near Bonadan. It was attacked and destroyed by Alliance starfighters. (XW)

Birket
this Imperial Security Bureau agent spent much of his career trying to track down Platt Okeefe. He once ran across the bounty hunter Boddu Bocck, and his assistant was killed when one of Bocck's poison-tipped darts pierced her heart. Bocck claimed the shot was an accidental discharge, but Birket never forgot or forgave the bounty hunter. However, when his own resources failed to ensnare Platt, Birket turned to Boddu Bocck and employed him to bring down Okeefe. He used the fact that Darrik had stowed away on the Last Chance as a reason for the bounty, claiming Platt kidnapped him. Birket also requried that Bocck bring in Tru'eb Cholakk, and all three needed to be alive. Bocck managed to capture Tru'eb on Tatooine, but Platt and Darrik managed to rescue her partner and get off the planet. They captured Birket in the escape from Tatooine, and Tru'eb eventually sold him into slavery. (IDC)

Birn Da'p
this Bith and his mate, Lologin, were veteran vacationers traveling on the Kuari Princess when it was attacked by the Riders of the Maelstrom. (RM)

Birrge
this man was a sanitation worker in Hanna City, on the planet Chandrila, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Despite his age and his occupation, he was quite friendly with strangers, and often assisted spacers who were new to Chandrila in getting to their destinations. (PSG)

Birru
this avian creature was native to the planet Ansion. (APS)

Birt, Ninora
this woman was the owner and Captain of the independent transport Record Time, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. She agreed to loan the ship to General Wedge Antilles during the evacuation of Coruscant, when the Yuuzhan Vong took control of the planet. In return, she was allowed to join the Blackmoon Squadron as a starfighter pilot and communications specialist. She served as Blackmoon Ten, and was part of the small fleet which defended Borleias after the Battle of Coruscant. (EL1, EL2)

Birth of the Alliance
this was one of many pro-Alliance holo-vids produced by No-Holds-Barred during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (WSV)

Birthright
this modified Barloz-class freighter served as the primary starship of the Cilgris family. It was first purchased by Thes Cligris, and passed down to his son Yett and, later, his nephew Naul. The Birthright, while ostensibly a business craft, saw regular duty for the Alliance during the Galactic Civil War, and was one of the many civilian ships that volunteered to help the New Republic during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. The Birthright was armed with three heavy-duty quad laser cannons and a heavy ion cannon, and could accommodate twelve passengers and 100 metric tons of cargo. (SOG)

Birth-tree
when an Ewok is born, a seedling is always planted in the forest. This seedling then becomes the Ewok's birth-tree. (AT)

Biscuit Baron
this largest Imperial restaurant chain is a subsidiary of TaggeCo. (CSA)

Bishop of War
once the leader of the warrior caste of Sedrians which protected the Golden Sun, the Bishop of War became the nominal leader of the Sedrians after the Empire was driven from Sedri. The position was nearly made obsolete after the break-up of the Golden Sun, when many Sedrians believed the Golden Sun had died and would never return. (SSR)

Bishwag
this was a swear word, used by many humans during the last decades of the Old Republic to indicate an untrustworthy being. (DRKN)

Bissillirus
Imperial Commander Resner believed that the system surrounding this star, located in Trax Sector, was the perfect place for the Empire to establish a supply depot, during his hunt for the Alliance forces in the sector. The system was discovered some 200 years before the Battle of Yavin by a group of Old Republic scout whose hyperdrive cut out in the middle of nowhere. The scouts were led by Arnoll Draenell, who mapped and named each of the five planets which orbited the star. When the Alliance discovered Governor Bursthed's plans to build a huge Imperial resupply station just outside the system, the Alliance sent out a team to disrupt its construction. Any large-scale Imperial presence in the system would have disrupted the flow of agricultural foodstuffs to the Alliance from Draenell's Point. (GMK)

Bissillirus Blasters
this Imperial squadron was part of the ground forces on Draenell's Point, during the construction of the Bissillirus Resupply Base, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. (GMK)

Bissillirus Resupply Base
this was the name of the proposed supply station the Empire planned to build on the outer edge of the Bissillirus System, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. The base would provide resupply services to the fleet which patrolled Trax Sector. The base was under construction when a group of Alliance agents learned of its presence in the system. Construction on the base was halted, and all development stopped, when the Alliance forces managed to cut off the food supply to the station and defeated the Empire's ground forces on Draenell's Point. (GMK)

Bissop
this reptilian hound was used by Yuuzhan Vong warriors to locate and hunt down prey. They were bred for strength and stealth. (DJ)

Bist
this tall, slender, silver-furred beast was a domestic farm animal raised by the Togorians for food. (GG4, TPS, MIS8)

Bi-state Memory Plastic
this substance was engineered so that it could retain two unique molecular structures. This allowed it to be formed into modular forms that could be easily broken down and stored. (DFR)

Bitas, Vob
this blob racer was arrested shortly before the Clone Wars, when one of his blobs was discovered to have been tainted with a viscosity-enhancing substance. Slish Fondine refused to plea-bargain with Bitas, and had him put to death for cheating. Note that this character is a reference to Bob Vitas, the author of this encyclopedia! (HNN4)

Bitefly
this biting insect was native to the planet Varl. Biteflies moved about in swarms, attacking their prey with stinging bites that injected a poison that caused intense pain. The poison also caused sudden chills and violent tremors in most humanoid beings. (TF)

Biter
this huge Yuuzhan Vong bio-creation was developed to follow behind a Beater, and literally consumed the rubble created by the Beater and turned it into a waste product that could be consumed by other creatures and turned into energy. In many cases, the Biter rode on the back of the Beater, to ensure that it had a ready supply of raw material. The Biter would use its powerful pincers to hold onto the Beater, while the larger creature thrashed about destroying things. The mouth of the Biter was surrounded by dozens of thick tentacles, which it used to draw rubble into its mouth to consume. (BP)

Biteworm
this species of creature is predominantly nocturnal, and generally hunts from the shadows. (PTR)

Bith
the Bith were a race of pale-skinned aliens with large skulls and long, splayed fingers. Their ancestral orgins were hard to discern, because their bodies contained no trace of anything but Bith information. They have evolved into a race which excelled in abstract thinking, although they lack certain instinctual emotions like fear and passion. Their huge eyes lacked eyelids because they evolved past the need for sleep, a trait which allowed also them to see in minute detail. A Bith lacked a proper nose, instead having olfactory organs hidden in the flaps of their cheeks. The thumb and little fingers on each hand are opposable, and their mechanical abilities are known throughout the galaxy. They are native to the planet Clak'dor VII in the Mayagil system. They quickly developed advanced technologies, among them the use of deadly chemicals for warfare. A planet-wide toxicological war between the cities of Nozho and Weogar - based on the disputed patent rights to a new stardrive - destroyed the once-beautiful planet, and left the Bith the choice of remaining bound there or expanding to the stars. Immediate survivors were formed to build hermetically-sealed cities, although they quickly realized that it would better preserve their race to travel among the stars. Bith mating is a less than emotional experience, as the Bith race has lost the ability to procreate sexually. Instead, they bring genetic material to a Computer Mating Service for analysis against prospective mates. Bith children are created from genetic material from two parents, which is combined, fertilized, and incubated for a year. Their internal systems were different than most humanoid species, including the fact that Bith had just one lung. (SW, SCRE, GG4, SBS, UF)

Bith
this was the name of the native language of the Bith race. (GMR10)

Bith Ruling Program
this was the name given to the primary body of Bith government, based on Clak'Dor VII, during the last decades of the Old Republic. (HNN4)

Bith Street
a thoroughfare located in Capital City, on Omman. (SWJ12)

Bith Vehicle Voice Lock
this device was used to secure a ground-based vehicle against theft and break-in. Essentially a computer module and locking system, the BiVVoL tied directly into the vehicle's control computer and provided voice-recognition access.The vehicle owner then recorded a coded command sequence which would allow access to the vehicle, and repeated it each time they returned. Most thieves were unable to break this form of lock, as it required an exact match of the owner's command code, vocal tones, and pitch elements. (GFT)

Bithabus
known as Bithabus the Mystifier, this member of the Bith race is a well-renowned magician who performs regularly at the Asteroid Theater in the Hologram Fun World. (QE)

Bithian
this was another name for the Bith race. (T18)

Bithuband
this musician's guild and booking agency, based in the CoCo District of Coruscant during the last years of the Old Republic, specialized in matching up Bith musicians with prospective bands who were in need of musical talent. (HNN5)

Bitrose Sector
Danaan Kerr was rumored to have performed dark magics in this sector, shortly after the Battle of Endor. (WBC)

Bitter End
this city was located on the planet Vjun, across the Bay of Tears from the Chateau Malreaux. The city was made up primarily of ruins created when the planet-wide plague drove the inhabitants mad before killing them, some eight years before the onset of the Clone Wars. (YDR)

Bitter Winter
this was the Basic name for the Brekken Vinthern disease. (SWJ5)

Bitterness
a Mistryl code phrase. (TME)

Bitthaevrian
this ancient species of warriors was native to the planet Guiteica, located in the Kadok Regions of the galaxy. They were a physically formidable race, with muscular bodies covered with a tough, leathery hide. The joints of their elbows and knees were studded with sharp quills, which quickly regenerate if broken off or lost in combat. Their upper jaw is studded with a row six serrated teeth, and it completely overhangs the lower jaw, giving the Bitthaevrian the appearance of a deadly shark. Each member of their warrior society had three names: the season they were born in, their mother's family name, and their own personal name. Males always took their wife's family name upon being wedded. As a people, the Bitthaevrians preferred to be isolated from the rest of the galaxy, and had no longing or desire to travel among the stars. (AE)

Bitz Bug
a small insect native to the planet Agamar. (XW)

Biulf, Prost
this man served as the Dean of the Peskdta Xenobotanical Garden, on the planet Garqi, many years before the onset of the Galactic Civil War. His tenure was remembered as legendary, because it was Dean Biulf who acquired greel seedlings from Pii and bafforr seedlings from Ithor. The two groves that were established for these species formed the endpoints of The Garden's maze of exhibits and zones. (GORW)

Bivalva contemplativa
this curious mollusk was native to the planet Perilix, and was known among the xeno-ethnologists of the galaxy as the thinking clam. This name was based on the unusual form of multigenerational narrative semaphores that individual members seemed to produce. Opponents of the theory that the bivalva contemplativa was sentient claimed that these semaphores were nothing more than hive-building signals. (YDR)

Bivikorn Phaanan
this was the name of a noted Ruurian individual. (UANT)
