Thar'quan
this Defel mine worker appeared to be an average meleenium miner. In reality, Thar'quan was an experienced and highly effective saboteur and information gatherer. Thar'quan worked in the city of Uhur'qah, tapping into the city's central computer and stealing data about Imperial operations. Very few knew that Thar'quan was also a deep-cover agent of the Alliance, and was the protege of Sasnak Toxis. Thar'quan was once captured and imprisoned in the Spice Mines of Kessel, but was freed with the help of Larq Thur. (CRO, AIR)

tharr
this Shyriiwook word was used as the suffix to many Wookiee names. It translated into Basic as "flyer" or "swimmer". It could be attached to a prefix by itself, or combined with other suffixes to form a complete Wookiee name. (GMR10, GCG)

Thasca Knarr
this Snivvian merchant set up his own business within one of the guest rooms at Exovar's Emporium, located on the planet Neftali. While this activity was generally overlooked by Exovar, Thasca Knarr was also plotting to take over the Emporium for his own usage. Thasca Knarr developed a network of spies and mercenaries, and hoped to eventually command a team of bounty hunters. All of Thasca Knarr's plans were thwarted, however, when a group of independent operatives uncovered his plans and exposed them to Exovar. (WSV)

The Battle of Ahto: A Memoir
this history of the Imperial occupation of the planet Manaan and the effects it had on the Selkath was written by Fewash Welko. The book chronicled the Selkath plans for rebellion, as well as the sudden appearance of a mysterious stranger who knew as much about the Order of Shasa as the Selkath. After the Battle of Endor, the book was translated from the Selkath language into Basic, for reading and investigation by the rest of the galaxy. It was then that people realized the Selkath had been visited by Darth Vader, not a saving Jedi as many had suspected. The memoirs told of the swift way in which the Selkath infiltrated the Imperial base and eliminated any opposition. Their attack was so fast that the base Commander could only order a retreat in the face of it, leaving the tourists who had traveled to Manaan behind. However, the Selkath didn't stop at killing the Imperials. They found themselves possessed by a bloodlust that consumed them, and they slaughtered the innocent tourists as well. Jedi scholars came to believe that Vader had tricked them into the attacks, in an effort to force the Selkath down a path toward the Dark Side of the Force, where they might have become a powerful weapon for Emperor Palpatine. (PH)

The Brief Reign of Future Wraiths
this Corellian opera was first produced more than twenty years before the Battle of Naboo, and was popular enough to attract galactic attention. The funding for the original production was acquired from several sources, including a large donation from the parents of Finis Valorum. After its surprisingly successful run on Coruscant, the opera was taken on the road by a troupe of Biths, and appeared on a wealth of planets over the next twenty years. It was staged at the prestigious Coruscant Opera house in the year leading up to the Battle of Naboo. (COD)

The Emperor's Court
this spoof on criminal justice holovids was produced by an unknown agent during the height of the New Order. Individual episodes featured an actor who was garbed like Emperor Palpatine, who served as judge and jury for simple litigation cases. Another actor, dressed as Darth Vader, portrayed the Emperor's bailiff. Cases were tried with an exaggerated form of "Imperial justice," in an effort to parody the Empire's cruelty and make it more obvious to the galaxy. This is a spoof on the popular courtroom-based television series, The People's Court. (T14)

The Goods
this was the term used to describe Finis Valorum, during his tenure as Chancellor of the Old Republic, by the Senate Guards and the Judicial Department. (COD)

The Light Side of the Subelectronic Force
this was one of the many treatises written by Nasdra Magrody, in which he speculated that subelectronic devices could be implanted into the brain of a Force-sensitive individual. These devices would then allow the individual to "influence artificial intelligences of varying complexities at the individual synaptic level" - or, more simply, to control droids through the Force. (OWS)

The Lost Twenty: Dooku's Rise
this unofficial account of Count Dooku's life, written by Professor H. Hrush, was one of the five most popular pieces of literature during the year leading up to the Clone Wars. (HNN4)

The New Crder: The Glories of the Next Thousand Generations
this was one of the many exhibit wings found in the Galactic Museum on Coruscant. It was originally known as the "Annals of the Republic" during the last centuries of the Old Republic, but was renamed when Emperor Palpatine instituted the New Order. (CCW)

The New Order

a musical piece often played by Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes, The Sequential Passage of Chronological Intervals was originally performed by Gaeriel Capens during the year leading up to the Clone Wars. (TME, HNN5)

The Trickery of Vosdia Nooma
this Rodian drama was written and produced during the years leading up to the Clone Wars, and was generally considered more of a political statement than a pure Rodian drama. Written by Hishinu Booj and endorsed by Senator Onaconda Farr, The Trickery of Vosida Nooma was laden with symbolism and allegory that was at once entertaining and a heavy-handed propaganda machine for the Military Creation Act. The play revolved around the title character, whose daughter is poisoned by the bite of a bug, an event which draws the community together. Nooma then begins using his new-found "fame" to spout political rhetoric, and eventually is eleceted baron of the town of Yusk. He begins heavily taxing the local farmers, despite the growing unrest being stirred by a noted soldier. The soldier begins building his own army, while Nooma is unable to decide whether or not to fight back. A Paladin character arrives to urge Nooma to build up his own army, in direct parallels to Chancellor Palpatine's call for an Army of the Republic. The remainder of the drama centers on the bloody conflict that follows, along with Nooma's eventual downfall. The bloody conflict was meant to indicate the future of the Old Republic, should the Military Creation Act not be passed by the Galactic Senate. (HNN5)

The Universal Energy Field
this was one of the many treatises written by Nasdra Magrody, in which he speculated that subelectronic devices could be implanted into the brain of a Force-sensitive individual. These devices would then allow the individual to "influence artificial intelligences of varying complexities at the individual synaptic level" - or, more simply, to control droids through the Force. (OWS)

Thedit
this Jawa was responsible for perimeter patrols of the territory held by Kalit. He was known as an inspiring leader, and was adept at discerning the approach of krayt dragons, Sandpeople, and other Jawa clans. (CCG9)

Theed
founded 800 years before the Battle of Naboo, this is the capital city of the planet Naboo. Theed is surrounded by water, although it sits at the edge of an unusually tall steppelandand. The city is surrounded by numerous waterfalls which have formed over the millennia. (SW1, IWE1)

Theed Arms
this small weapons manufacturer was based on the planet Naboo, and supplied a variety of weapons to the armed forces and royalty of Naboo. It was originally founded by Captain Panaka, in order to produce the weaponry needed for the Royal Naboo Security Force. (SON, NEGW)

Theed Cruiser
this form of starship was produced by starshipwrights on the planet Naboo, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. They were named in honor of the capital city of Theed, and were built to exacting and over-engineered standards of safety and reliability. (BF4)

Theed Festival of the Arts
this was an annual event that showcased some of Naboo's most prominent and popular artisans. It was held throughout the city of Theed. (SWGAL)

Theed Generator
this was the name given to the immense, power-producing facility which was located in the city of Theed, on the planet Naboo. During the last decades of the Old Republic, the Theed Generator operated constantly, drawing raw plasma energy from the core of the planet and converting it into usable power for much of the population of Naboo. It even supplied power to Kwilaan Starport. During the Battle of Naboo, the Theed Generator was the site of an epic lightsaber battle between Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Darth Maul. In the end, only Obi-Wan Kenobi survived the battle. (SON)

Theed Palace
this primary seat of the Naboo government, the Palace dominated the incredibly beautiful city of Theed. Deep in its core, the Naboo had built a power generator that took plasma energy directly from the planet's core and harnessed it to create electricity and heat. Adjacent to the Palace, across tributaries of the Solleu River, was the hangar in which the royal family maintained their starship, and in which the Space Fighter Corps maintained their small fleet of N-1 starfighters. It was a royal family tradition that each new ruler of the planet Naboo add a tower or turret to the Palace, and to enhance the beauty of existing structures. (IWE1)

Theed Palace Space Vessel Engineering Corps
this Naboo manufacturer created most of the starship designs used in the royal volunteer fleet, including the J-type transport used by Queen Amidala and the N-1 fighter. (X1)

Theed School of Technology and Engineering
this was one of the most prestigious schools for technology and engineering, located on the planet Naboo in the capital city of Theed. (GMR1)

Theed Spaceport
built with speed and urgency in the years following the Battle of Naboo, the Theed Spaceport was a utilitarian spaceport designed to handle the traffic of visitors and tourists as well as three diplomats: Queen Jamillia, Senator Padme' Amidala, and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. The Naboo built the spaceport on the lowlands below the cliffs that supported the city of Theed and the royal hangar. Construction of the spaceport was funded by the reparations received from the settlements provided after the Trade Federation's invasion of Naboo. The builders maintained a certain level of aesthetic, however, given the main platform a sweeping, elegant curve that matched the cliffside. (IWE2)

Theek
this was the Jawa word for "run." (T4)

Theelin
this near-human species was nearly bred out of existence, by the time of the Galactic Civil War. Their own genetic make-up became their downfall, as the union of male and female gametes often resulted in incompatabilities that doomed the tiny embryo. It was later discovered that Theelin individuals were more compatable with pure human stock, but crossbreeding was insufficient to keep the Theelin population alive. As a people, the Theelin race was noted for its beautiful musical works, although most of their most stirring works were written to lament the race's eventual extinction. (DE1, SWDB)

Theen Fida
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)

Theen Ocean
this was the smallest of the three seas located on the planet Genesia. (FBS)

Thek, Gadon
this dark-skinned man, a native of the Lower City of Taris, was the leader of the Hidden Bek swoop gang during the height of the Great Sith War, more than 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. As a member of the Hidden Bek, Gadon had seen the Black Vulkars move in an take control of the planet, and he held no love whatsoever for Davik Kang. (KOTOR)

Thel
this was one of the most common names given to male Corellians. (GMR9)

Thelaa
this contemporary of Hari Seldona was a student at Alderaan University, and a secret dissident during the rise of the New Order. She was a quiet student of music, and heralded from a backwater world that has thus far avoided Imperial invasion. She had a good deal of promise, but the oppression of the Empire seemed to dampen her creative spirit. It was later discovered that many of her later works were actually plagiarized versions of works created by the forgotten composer Salyer. She was expelled, and she fled into the wilderness where she had been secretly running guns to the Alliance. She was captured by Imperial agents who had been following her, and was subjected to deep interrogation. The agents tried to have her transported to the newly-arrived Death Star for further interrogation, but their calls were ignored. Thelaa and her torturers were killed when the Death Star destroyed Alderaan. (ISU)

Thella
this woman led a group of infiltrators to Kelada, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (SWJ6)

Thel-Tanis, Darra
this young girl was training to be a Jedi Knight, under the tutelage of Soara Antana, at the same time Anakin Skywalker was training with Obi-Wan Kenobi, some five years after the Battle of Naboo. She was easily distinguished by her bright, copper- and -gold-colored hair, and by the ribbons she wove into her Padawan braid. Darra was badly injured during a mission to rescue Old Republic scientists on Haariden, after taking a blaster bolt in the thigh. Note that Jedi Quest: The False Peace indicates that Darra was injured on Norah. The bolt had been laced with a chemical charge, and she went into shock almost immediately. She recovered from her injuries, and later helped her Master oversee the relief efforts on the planet Nuralee. Despite her trials, Darra was known among her fellows studetns as a bright and shining individual, full of life and gusto that was infectious. Darra and Master Antana were later chosen as part of a four-pair team to travel to Korriban and apprehend Granta Omega and Jenna Zan Arbor. Darra, along with Anakin and fellow students Tru Veld and Ferus Olin, accompanied their Masters to Korriban. On the remote world, they found themselves besieged by the Dark Side of the Force, and the Padawans were helpless as Anakin began to argue with them at every turn. They realized that Ferus - not Anakin - had been chosen for early promotion to the rank of Jedi Knight, but couldn't understand why Anakin would allow his anger to come before the mission. After Tru was hurt, the team regrouped for a final attack. In the battle, Darra was forced to leap in front of several blaster bolts to protect Ferus. She took the blasts in the chest, and later died from her injuries. Note that Jedi Quest: The False Peace also names this character as Darra Haariden. (JQ1, JQ4, JQ9, JQ10)

Thelvin Order of Barundi
this sect sought to completely isolate itself from the rest of galactic society, several thousand years before the Battle of Yavin. To ensure their isolation, the Thelvins even developed their own language, allowing them to speak amongst themselves without being understood. The basis of the Thelvin Order was the attainment of perpetual happiness, and their society's laws were very strict in promoting this happiness. Any member of society which did not work toward harmony was subject to immediate capital punishment, and were beaten to death with thorny flowers which exuded a deadly poison. (UYV)

Themfar
this was a potent neurotoxin developed by the Malkite Poisoners, during the height of the New Order. (EGW, AEG)

Themion
this man was a member of the police force on Eriadu, during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Themion was in charge of the interrogation of Anakin Solo and Tahiri Veila, after they tried to save the life of Kelbis Nu. (EVR)

Themog
this former member of the Corellian Security Force was drummed out of the force after being wounded in an argument with a suspect. The injury left him without the use of his left eye, which he covered with a black patch like a pirate. The suspect admitted that he had tried to bribe Themog into releasing him, but later testified that Themog tried to raise the amount of the bribe before accepting it. Exiled from law enforcement, Themog eventually turned to a life of crime, and became the crimelord controlled who much of the underground activity on the planet Chrona, during the early years of the New Republic. Themog worked to strengthen his position of power by bribing Arno Gallorr and Moira Kruger, hoping to counteract the work of Mortris Gallorr to free the planet from criminal control. Unknown to most, he was also romantically involved with Moira, and convinced her to allow him to use the Grinder Dance Hall as a hideout. When Mortris began hiring mercenaries to protect the citizens of Corestrike, Themog kidnapped Mortris, his grandson Selmar, and his daughter-in-law Serise. He held them ransom against a group of determined freelance protectors, until his thugs were defeated and Themog was defeated in a firefight. (SWJ12)

Thene'
this is the capital city of the planet Marngar III. The Imperial university's main campus on the planet is located here. (SWJ4)

this was one of the two largest agricultural centers found on the planet Krant. Like Peche, Thennes was protected by a token police force during the last decades of the Old Republic. (GBC)

Thennqora
a alien race which greatly influenced Saffa paintings, after they made initial contact several millenia before the Galactic Civil War. (HTTE)

Thent Squadron
this was a group of Army troopers dispatched by the Empire to overtake the New Republic base on Saarn, shortly after the re-appearance of Grand Admiral Thrawn. (SWJ6)

Theonnrl
this alien was a noted forger who worked from a base on Balmorra during the early years of the New Republic. (GUN)

Theory of Universal Reference
this was the name given to the scientific discoveries of the ancient Drall scientist Tiran, who proved that space and time were connected, and that the speed of light was an absolute bonudary that could not be crossed. His theories were proven some 10,000 years before the discovery of hyperspace, and were once deemed to be irrefutable. Millennia later, investigation into the Theory revealed that it did not preclude an object traveling faster than light; it just prohibited an object traveling at the speed of light. (MBS)

Theosidicc Sirrap Treblif
this Elomin author wrote The History of Two Peoples, One Planet. (GG12)

Theran Listeners
the members of this cult of Force-sensitive individuals could sometimes hear the voices of the Spook crystals through the Force. Found mainly on the planet Nam Choris, they were the latter-day versions of the prophet Theras, and often had healing powers as well as insight and foresight. (UF)

Therangen
this black rock was used as a fuel source by many primitive races, but was known to be unstable and volatile if handled improperly. (KOTOR)

Therans
this group of Oldtimers from the planet Nam Chorios followed the word of the prophet Theras, and strove to keep inbound and outbound traffic away from the planet. The exact reason for their actions was lost over several centuries, but the Therans continued to drive off larger ships, an action deemed by the Newcomers as an attempt to keep Nam Chorios isolated from the galaxy. A civil war of sorts between the Therans and the Newcomers raged for a number of years until the basis for the feud was revealed by Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa-Solo. (POT)

Theras
one of the original political prisoners left on the planet Nam Chorios by the Grissmaths, Theras was attuned to the Force. He was contacted by the Spook crystals, which had realized that the drochs used to kill the prisoners were growing in power. The Spooks feared that the drochs would leave Nam Chorios and inflict the galaxy, and used Theras as a sort of prophet. He brought word to the Oldtimers that the drochs could secret themselves on any ship leaving the planet, and that ships of large size could house enough drochs to consume the galaxy. Theras and his followers reworked the planetary defenses to fire on incoming and outgoing ships over a certain mass, in an effort to prevent the drochs from leaving. (POT)

Ther-das
this Arcona was educated at the Lerct Historical Institute, before serving as the acquisitions director for the Zuliria Museum of Antiquities, working in the ancient weaponry department. During his studies at Lerct, Ther-das became addicted to salt, and spent many years trying to overcome his addiction. After growing tired of the routine at the museum, Ther-das gathered some acquaintences to him and formed the Zulirian Swordmasters. Originally dedicated to the study of weaponry, Ther-das began pushing the group to use their collected weapons and skills as vigilantes. (AIR)

Thergum Pits
located on the planet Essowyn, this was the primary mining operation founded by Messert Mines Corporation. They purchased the rights to the Pits from the Tresycht nation of Saurtons, and used Tresycht forces to subjugate the nearby Yiszte nation to avoid any contention over ownership of the land. (PG1)

Thermabag
this small sack is used to keep foods warm or cold during transport. Essentially, they are insulated lunch bags. (SWJ9)

Thermaboom
this was an explosive material that detonated when warmed. (DN1)

Therma-canteen
this ancient form of container was used to transport liquids while maintaining their temperature. (TOJC)

Thermajug
this was a vessel that coud carry a beverage or soup and maintain its temperature over a long period of time. (SWJ2)

Thermal Bomb
this was a form of explosive developed by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the height of the Clone Wars. Rather than exploding and spraying an area with shrapnel or other material, a thermal bomb detonated into a ball of incredible heat, burning everything within its blast radius into a charred husk. (MBS)

Thermal cape
a poncho made from metallic foil and spider silk, it keeps the wearer's body heat inside. They are often called T-capes. (SME, COJ)

Thermal Detonator
a round bomb used by smugglers and mercenaries, most of these weapons originated from a design first built on Talesia. They are essentially a casing which contained a shaped charge of baradium. The use of baradium made the weapon extremely dangerous, even for the being who threw it, as the element was highly unstable. Depending on the size of the charge, a thermal detonator would essentially atomize all material within a spherical area centered on the charge itself. Anything outside the range of the blast sphere remained virtually untouched. The baradium was activated by a switch, which would release a short burst of energy into the baradium mass, causing it to explode. (ROTJ, CPL, ROE, EGW)

Thermal Grenade
this explosive device generated an intense ball of heat when detonated, literally melting everything in its blast radius. They were illegal to possess or use, during the height of the New Order. (UYV)

Thermal Mine
this form of explosive device was employed in bringing down large buildings. It had a controllable blast, which enabled demolitions crews to safely bring down structures. (IA)

Thermal Shield
developed some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, thermal shields were a form of personal shield that protected the user against intense differences in temperature. The primary motivation for these shields came from fiefighters and other groups that worked around open flames, although they were later modified for military use. The only drawback to a military thermal shield was that it offered no protection against projectile or energy weapons. (KOTOR)

Thermal suit
a thin, lightweight coverall worn over normal clothing that provides protection from extreme temperatures. They are often referred to as T-suits. (SME, COJ)

Thermal Veristat
this device was used in the construction of racing engines, and was responsible for regulating the internal temperature of these engines. Because of the incredible heat they generate, thermal veristats were required in podracer engines. (IG1)

Thermal Well
this weapon was developed by the Alliance, in an effort to reduce the risks involved with using pure-baradium thermal detonators. Alliance technicians blended baradium with stabilized ytterbium, resulting in a denser explosive that ignited instead of exploding when energized. The thermal reaction is capable of generating thousands of degrees of heat in a short time, literally melting everything in its "blast radius." (ROE)

Thermaplast
this material was used to form pre-fab shelters. (GG10)

Therma-slice
this was a culinary device which used microfine heating lasers to cut through food and heat the individual slices. (HNN4)

Thermex
a highly-combustible explosive. (POM)

Thermic Baster
this was an outdated form of oven, used for slowly cooking meats. (IWE1)

Thermite
an explosive material used by military commandos, thermite was transported in a gel form that allowed it to be poured into a vessel for remote detonation. (SWJ12, GMR1)

Thermite Boring Charge
this directed explosive was used to destroy specific targets, such as locking mechanisms. The charge was positioned to bore into its target, destroying everything it encountered along its path. Thermite charges burned with an intensely bright light. (KT)

Thermocapsulary Dehousing Assistor
an automaton used to break down heat-generating devices. They are menial laborers. C-3PO called R2-D2 one while R2-D2 was trying to escape from the Tantive IV. (SWN)

Thermocom
this device is used to detect the operating temperature of machinery and equipment, in order to prevent them from overheating. The thermocom is connected by a shielded cable to onboard shutdown systems, which bring the equipment to a halt when the operating temperature reaches critical levels. The temperature levels can be set into the thermocom by the manufacturer, or modified by the user. Modifications to the temperature settings are highly discouraged, however. (RF)

Thermo-converter
this is any device or material which generates electricity when heated. (GG2)

Thermoenergetic Screen
this form of heat protection was developed by the Old Republic during the height of the Clone Wars. Using a thermoenergetic screen, a clone trooper could be encapsulated in a small pod, which could be ejected from a transport ship so that the trooper could reach a drop point on a planet's surface. This eliminated the need for large, expensive dropships that provided enemies with a large target. The small, expendable pods were hard to detect, allowing a trooper to reach the surface swiftly and undetected. The thermoenergetic screen deflected the incredible heat that was built up upon entry into a planet's atmosphere, keeping the trooper inside safe. (TCD)

Thermoguard Jumpsuit
this expensive form of bodysuit was developed to allow the wearer to evade infrared and thermal-imaging scanners. The thermoguard suit was created with a surface cooling unit that maintained an external temperature equal to that of the wearer's environment. This meant that, to infrared and thermal sensors and other devices, the wearer was virtually invisible. (GMR6)

Thermon
this planet is orbited by several moons made of pure methane. The methane exists in liquid form below the crust, and gravitation pressure often cracks this crust. The result is a spectacular display of methan geysers. (THG)

Thermoskin
this was the high-tech bodysuit developed for starfighter pilots during the early years of the New Order. It allowed fighter pilots on deepspace missions to retain large amounts of body heat, which gave the pilot the option to divert some power from life support to shields. (EVR)

Thermosuit
this specialized environment suit was designed to help a being survive in exceptionally cold environments. (HSR)

Thernbee
this huge, four-legged creature was native to the mountains of Almania. They were covered with thick, white fur, and had small heads punctuated by short ears and striking blue eyes. Thernbees had a long, thin, prehensile tail which could be used like a whip. They drooled constantly, and needed sunlight in order to survive. They were semi-sentient and somewhat psychic, and were able to establish mental links to other beings with similar abilities. They consumed primarily leaves and vegetation, but would also eat the slimy slugs and snakes which inhabit the underbrush. They were very powerful, yet docile, creatures. The bite of the thernbee had a numbing effect on its victim, since the saliva of the thernbee had an anesthetic toxic in it. This caused the prey to stop moving, allowing the thernbee to kill it with little resistance. Because of their semi-sentient minds, Luke Skywalker petitioned the New Republic to ensure they were protected. (TNR, WOTC, PJSB)

Thes Cligris
this Duros trader operated his business from a base onboard the Birthright, which he purchased just after the institution of the New Order. Although outwardly a businessbeing, Thes was also a supporter of the Alliance, and provided the Birthright as a transport whenever it was needed. (SOG)

Theselonian
this clothing designer was known for its exotic bridal gowns. (UYV)

Thesh
this is the eighth combination symbol in the Aurebesh script, and represents the Basic letters "th". (SWM)
