Nova Viper
Spurch Goa's sleek cruiser. (TME)

Nova Whisper
this Lantillian Short Hauler had a remarkable history. Originally owned by Tev Driscull, the ship was seized by the outlaw Dharus and modified for use as an assault gunboat. The Corellian Security Force later captured the ship and refitted it for use in its own operations. The Nova Whisper was lost when Delt Nerris hijacked it, and the ship turned up in the possession of Lernik De'Yago. De'Yago, in turn, sold it to a merchant aboard the herdship Bazaar, who stripped it of useable subsystems and put the hulk up for auction. Before De'Yago sold it, the Nova Whisper was armed with an ion cannon and a pair of concussion missile launchers, and it was equipped with terrain-following sensors. (SS)

Nova-crystal
see Nova Crystal (HSE)

Nova-Drive
this small, Mid Rim corporation manufactured a variety of freighters in systems along the Rimma Trade Route. Unlike the other giants in the starship business, Nova-Drive didn't design its own ships. Instead, it licensed designs form other firms and created modified version of their own. One example of this process was the #3-Z light freighter, which was created from the pahsed-out YT-1200. (SS)

NovaFlare
this Alliance CR90 corvette was commanded by Tresk Ortola prior to the Battle of Endor. (JASB)

NovaQuad-D
this was a Corellian Engineering Corporation starship drive system, made famous by the Barloz-class freighter. The NovaQuad-D was the precursor to the reliable drives used on the YT series of freighters. They were extremely powerful and reliable, and many starship captains chose to modify the existing system, rather than replace it, to gain additional power. (SS)

Novar
an Onderonian functionary working for Queen Amanoa, Novar was educated at the Ov Taraba university. His first political role as an advisor to the king's aide, a position he obtained more because of his father's connections that his own competance. However, Novar was much more adept that his superior, Tolo Kad, who claimed all of Novar's successes were his own doings. In order to remove Kad from his position and take it for himself, Novar told Kad that he had completed all the preparations for a state dinner being held by the King, Ommin. Kad bragged about "his own special preparations" to Ommin, but was shocked to find out that nothing had been prepared by Novar. King Ommin, in a great fit of rage, destroyed Kad with Sith magic and promoted Novar in his place. Over then next decade, Novar manipulated Ommin until the king finally began teaching him the Sith magicks. He later served King Ommin after the wasted Naddist returned to power and captured the Jedi Master Arca. Novar was placed in charge of copying the Sith manuscripts stolen from the Galactic Museum by Satal Keto and Aleema. (TOJ, FNU, TOJC)

Novarr, Fiana
this alias was provided to Iella Wessiri by the New Republic Intelligence agency, in order for her to gain access to the planet Adumar during the negotiations between the Adumari, the Republic, and the Empire. Fiana was a Corellian code slicer hired by the Adumari to assist with interfacing their computer protocols with those of the Empire and the New Republic. (SOA)

Novar's Bluff
this Lianna-class corvette was the first starship to be equipped with the Energy Emittance Baffler and the Empire's first cloaking device. However, the plans for the device had been sabotaged by a group of Alliance agents that had infiltrated Santhe/Sienar's headquarters on Lianna, and the Ship was fully detectable once the cloaking device was activated. (ML)

Novastar
this was a speciallied racing swoop, developed with rocket boosters to give the craft additional speed. Theis increased speed also meant that the Novastar was dangerous for inexperienced riders to drive. (TG)

Novastar Corporation
this corporation produced starship navigational computers during the New Order. It was rumored that Novastar was developing a portable nav computer that didn't require an astromech unit. It was also rumored that they had acquired an Imperial TIE Fighter for their own study. (SPG)

Nova-Tech
this corporation produced a variety of powersuits, for use in a wide range of environments. (OE)

Novoil Cluster Stargoods
this corporation, one of several remanufacturers of TIE fighters, was abandoned after the fall of the Empire. (RPG)

Novolek Beacon
this stellar anomaly is located near the Sisar Run, and disrupts virtually all communication in its vicinity. The Beacon is situated bwteen Nwarcol Point and Sedri. It was known as a trans-dimensional energy streamer, which was a rare sort of pulsar that spewed out matter, energy, and radiation as it spun. The streamer itself was formed from multi-dimensional, gravitational curves which were invisible in the electromagnetic spectrum, but acted like a convergence of hyperspace mass shadows. This star was known to the Hutts as the Grandfather Clock, since it flared outward at a regular interval of 28 standard days, 12 standard hours, and 42 standard minutes. However, the duration of the flare within that time period varies wildly. (SSR)

Novor Asteroid Field
this belt of space rubble was formed around the star Novor Major when it expanded into a red giant, destroying the seventeen inner-most planets of the system. (SSR)

Novor Major
this star was the central body in the Novor System. Many millennia before the Battle of Hoth, Novor Major expanded into a red giant, tearing apart the seventeen inner-most planets in the system. The outer 16 planets survived the expansion, and their environments were quickly modified by the additional radiation from the star. (SSR)

Novor XXIII
this planet, one of the sixteen which survived the expansion of Novor Major, was the homeworld of the Ry'coz species. (CRO)

Novus
this Twi'leki male was one of the Fallanassi children which were taken to the planet Teyr, where they lived in the city of Griann. (SOL)

this small, spider-like Hyallp worked for Jabba the Hutt as a spy and mercenary. He employed her to kill the t'landa Til priests of Colony Four on Ylesia, shortly before the Battle of Ylesia. (RD)

Nozho
this was one of the two Bith cities involved in the conflict that left the planet Clak'Dor VII an ecological wasteland. The strife was the result of a dispute over patent rights to a new stardrive, thought to be owned by Nozho and Weogar. Nozho investigators blackmailed the neutral arbitrator in order to sway his decision, while Weogar's mayor refused to honor the falsified decision. Both cities began producing the stardrive, and the increased trade competition led to the first Bith war in a million years. Nozho struck first, launching a chemical attack that wiped out most of Weogar's population. Weogar's retailiation was a biological weapon that mutated the genetic structure of any life form it contacted, leaving Nozho a desolate land filled with genetic monsters. Just ten percent of Nozho's original population survived the attack, and the survivors were forced to build hermetically-sealed cities in order to survive the devastation. (GG4, SWDB, GORW)

Nozho University
located in the city of Nozho, on the planet Clak'Dor VII, Nozho University was one of the largest universities on the planet. The school emphasized the disciplines of biological and ecological technologies, and was almost exclusively attended by Bith. Those few off-worlders who met the stringent entry criteria were forced to "think Bith" in order to understand the ways in which the Bith related to their physical environment, and the dropout rate for non-Bith students hovered around ninety percent. The gardens that were housed within the walls of Nozho University provided nearly half the city of Nozho with hydroponically-grown vegetables and fruits. (GORW)

Nozzie
this name, which meant "inquisitive", was common among Gungan males. (GCG)

NR 1100
this spindly droid was produced by the New Republic for use in slicing into the encrypted data cores of Imperial computers. Resembling a floating reptile, the NR 1100 was equipped with a repulsorlift engine and a pair of arms which housed a variety of computer interface probes and jacks. The NR 1100 was programmed with a variety of slicing routines, and was given enough intelligence to learn from known encryption routines to decrypt new ones. (EGD)

NR-5
this was a series of maintenance droids produced by Kalibac Industries during the Galactic Civil War. It was generally believed that the NR-5 was produced to compete with the Treadwell series of droids, although Kalibac claimed that they were trying to compete with Industrial Automaton. The NR-5 was equipped with the Mechro-II brain, a heavy lifting arm, a fine manipulator arm, a general-purpose appendage, and a sophisticated visual sensor system. The NR-5 found popularity among shipboard technicians who needed additional assistance in starship maintenance, but the series suffered from a lack of durability. This meant that NR-5 droids working out of doors on many worlds needed continual maintenance, reducing its effectiveness. The NR-5 was virtually dropped throughout the Outer Rim when the R4-series astromech was introduced by Industrial Automaton, but the NR-5 was generally regarded as more effective than the R4 on more gentle planets. (FOP, PSG, FTD, AEG)

Nrak
this was one of the few Tchuukthai ever to be encountered off their native homeworld. (WOTC)

N'rakti Lava Fields
this open area of bubbling lava was located on the planet Geonosis. (NEGV)

Nreem, Vara
this woman, a Jedi Knight who lived at the time of the Freedon Nadd Uprisings and the Great Sith War, believed that there was no distinction between the light and dark sides of the Force. She felt that there was just one Force, with various aspects which all needed to be learned. She once traveled to Krayiss Two to learn more about the Sith magicks which used the dark side of he Force. There, after encountering an ancient Sith-preserved spirit, she realized that the dark side of the Force was extremely powerful, and that it was a separate entity from the light side. The spirit showed her the forms of several Jedi Masters it had captured, and she tried to defeat it. She was consumed by the spirit of the Sith, forced to spend eternity wrapped in the pain and torture of their magic. (TOJC)

NRI
see New Republic Intelligence (AS)

NRI-1
this was Tomer Darpen's codename during the Adumari negotiations with the New Republic and the Empire. (SOA)

Nrin
this name was commonly given to Quarren males, and meant "tall". (GCG)

Nrin Vakil
this Quarren pilot joined Rogue Squadron shortly after the recovery of the Eidolon. He was a breath of fresh air to the Squadron, bringing a quick wit and florid personality to the heavy-handed pilots. To keep his skin moist,and to remind him of homeworld, Nrin wore a specially-designed flight suit that was filled with seawater. Nrin found a fast friend in the Mon Calamari Ibtisam, and they were constantly at each other's throats, arguing opposing sides of any debate with relish. During Plourr's attempt to reconstruct the monarchy of Eiattu, Nrin and the Rogues were on hand to prevent any warfare. Nrin was injured during an Imperial ambush ordered by Moff Leonia Tavira. After recovering, Nrin again proved a valuable member of the Squadron during the search for the Starfaring, when he use dhis X-Wing to take out a tribe of Irrukiine. Nrin was the loudest of the opponents of the New Republic's plan to place Soontir Fel into Rogue Squadorn, shortly after the Battle of Brentaal. After the Rogues tried to recover Sate Pastage from Ciutric, he resigned his post with them and took up other duties for the military. He had tired of killing, but still believed that the New Republi was too worthy a cause to abandon. He became a pilot trainer instead. He returned to active pilot duty during the struggle against Grand Admiral Thrawn, but saw limited duty. During the hunt for Prince-Admiral Krennel, Nrin was called upon to pilot the T-65R reconnaissance fighter during a fly-by of the moon Distna. After retiring from active duty for good, Nrin married Koyi Komad. (XWWP, XWRR, HXW, IR, DTO)

NR-N99
this was the Corporate Alliance's version of the tank droid. Although the NR-N99 was original manufactured to "persuade" businesses and corporations to join the Corporate Alliance, the majority of these droids were produced for use by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the height of the Clone Wars. The design of the NR-N99 was based on a treaded platform that used a huge, central tread to drive the tank droid across terrain, while outrigger treads provided stability and additional traction. The NR-N99 was armed with a pair of heavy-duty, modular laser cannons that could be reconfigured for various types of engagements. Early versions of the NR-N99 were equipped with droid brains, although this configuration was later dropped in favor of a tank droid that was piloted by a droid operator. With the end of the Clone Wars, all NR-N99 tank droids were issued orders to deactivate, as part of Darth Sidious' plan to consolidate military power and ensure the loyalty of his troops. (VD3)

Nrogu
this purple moon was one of the multitude of natural satellites that orbited the planet Qoribu. (DN1)

Nrross
this Trandoshan worked as a pirate during the height of the New Order, serving under Captain Naz Felyood as the navigator aboard the Jynni's Virtue until the ship was intercepted by an Imperial patrol. Captain Felyood ordered a hasty retrat into hyperspace, and they fled the scene. However, the ship's astromech droid exploded due to the strain of the jump. Nrross was caught in the explosion and killed. (PH)

NR-V2
this exploration droid was developed by Arakyd Industries during the early years of the New Republic, and was based on the design of the Viper probe droid. (GMR3)

Seinar Fleet System's NavCom Unit, used on assault gunboats. (XW)

NSFS Food Blocks
these pre-packaged food rations were used by smugglers to stock their ships. (SWJ1)

Nssis-class Clawcraft
this was the form of starfighter developed by the Chiss in the early years of the peace accord between the Imperial Remnant and the New Republic. Named for their appearance, clawcraft were constructed from the cockpit and engines of a standard TIE Fighter. Instead of solar panels for wings, the clawcraft had four curved, arm-like projections sprouting from the sides of the cockpit, each tipped with a modified L-s7.2 TIE Fighter laser cannon. Measuring just over 7.5 meters in length, the clawcraft also had limited hyperspace capabilities, lacking a true navigational computer in favor of realspace anchor points near each Chiss-inhabited planet. It could attain speeds near 1,000 kilometers per hour in atmosphere. (DTR, GMR5, NEGV)

NT 600
this was the designation of the droid installed by Vilmarh Grahrk to help pilot the Inferno. Villie gave the droid, which was custom-built at the Golden Nyss Shipyards, the capability to operate the navigational computer and a variety of shipboard systems, but never programmed NT to operate the weapons. NT was a small, spherical droid, equipped with a tiny repulsor engine which allowed it to move about. (T3, T8, TDV)

NT-311
this was the callsign of one of the Imperial stormtroopers assigned to the Devastator, and who participated in the boarding of the Tantive IV. (JKG)

NT-311
this was the callsign of one of the Imperial stormtroopers who boarded the Tantive IV, shortly before the Battle of Yavin. (JKG2)

NT-757
this was the callsign of one of the stormtroopers stationed aboard the first Death Star. NT-757 was one of the troopers who followed Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa into the chasms of the Death Star, after the heroes escaped from the trash compactor. (JKG3)

NTB-630
this heavy naval bomber was developed by Incom and Subpro for the Old Republic, during the height of the Clone Wars. Similar in design to the PTB-625, the NTB-630 differed in its mission profile. While the PTB-625 was designed for planetary bombardment, the NTB-630 was created to deliver its payloads while engaged in space battles. Thus, it was more maneuverable than the PTB-625, allowing it to get close to capital ships and avoid their turbolasers in order to execute its bombing runs. (X3)

N'ton
this H'drachi youth accompanied Ch'no and Mora in searching the cities of M'haeli for junk to rebuild. N'ton saw that his parents and the other H;drachi elders failed to see Ch'no's unwavering ability to correctly read the time-streams, and so he decided to join the Alliance and help avoid the impending war on M'haeli. (ROC)

Ntthan
a New Republic starship captain, his mission was to deliver supplies to the hidden outpost of New Alderaan. He kept very strict timetables, and was never late. Following the second rebirth of Emperor Palpatine on Byss, Ntthan was intercepted by Imperial forces and taken to Bast Castle, where he was interrogated by Kvag Gthull until he revealed the location of New Alderaan. (DE2)

NT-X2
this modified TX-1118 assassin droid was owned by Luskin Exovar, and was employed to help secure Exovar's Emporium on Neftali. Part of a shipment which never made it to its final destination, NT-X2 was known as Entax, and was accompanied by another TX-1118 droid designated BT-X2 but known as Botax. Both droids were given new programming by Exovar, who removed their assassin routines and replaced them with security routines. They worked as a team, and NT-X2 was the more introspective of the two droids. (WSV)

Nu
meaning "quiet" or "close-mouthed", this was one of the most common names among Rodian males. These names generally described characteristics of historical individuals, and different Rodian clans used up to three names to describe an individual. (GCG)

Nu jurkad Mando'ade, burc'ya!
this Mandalorian warning, which was often used more like a command, translated into Basic as "Don't mess with me, mate!" or "Steady, mate!" There was an implied threat of retaliation against another's actions, which was usually backed up by the Mandalorian's body language. The literal translation of the warning was "Don't brandish your sabre with the Mandalorians, mate!" (OWS)

Nu pratta dunko
this Huttese phrase translated roughly into Basic as "What do you mean?" (E1A14)

Nu, Jocasta
this wispy woman was a Jedi Knight, and served in the Jedi Temple's Library Archives on the planet Coruscant, some ten years after the Battle of Naboo. Despite her frail appearance, Jocasta was known as a firebrand among the Jedi. She was the Jedi who trained the Miralukan male Jerec to Knighthood, instilling in him the insatiable desire for knowledge that drove many of her actions. She discovered Jerec while working as an archaeologist for the ExplorCorps, many years before the Battle of Naboo. Her determination and strength as a Jedi Knight carried over into her work in the Archives, where even the most experienced Jedi Master had to bow to her demands. However, her pride in the Archives and their contents often blinded her to the fact that the Archives were not truly complete, and could be altered from within. Thus, when Obi-Wan Kenobi arrived at the Archives to locate a planet named Kamino, Jocasta Nu was of very little help when it didn't show up in the records. According to Nu, if the planet didn't exist in the Archives, then it simply didn't exist. She was forced to face her pride head-on in the wake of the Battle of Geonosis, when Kamino's existence was verified by both Obi-Wan and Master Yoda. She began her own investigation into the matter, and was surprised to find a trail of evidence that exposed Count Dooku's altering of the archived data on Kamino. In the wake of the Clone Wars, Madame Nu was among the many Jedi who were killed in the Jedi Temple by Anakin Skywalker, after he pledged his allegiance to Darth Sidious and became Darth Vader. (SWI57, TOW, AOTC, VD2, LEV, LJ1, WOTC)

Nu, Risso
this Corellian man was a noted bounty hunter, who was considered second only to Boba Fett in the number of successful hunts undertaken in the Core Worlds during the early years of the New Order. He met with a group of other bounty hunters on the remote world of Ma'ar Shaddam, hoping to gain their support in a plan to eliminate Boba Fett during his routine maintenance stopover on the planet. Their plan was hastily thrown together, and any planning they had was shattered when Fett recognized the threat. Before Nu could react, half of his team had been killed by Fett. The other half was eliminated systematically by Fett shortly afterward, until only Fett and Nu remained. Since Fett was busy with the other hunters, Nu managed to steal his Mandalorian armor and weapons, and gained access to Slave I. He then used the ship's weapons systems to try and destroy Fett on the ground. Fett survived a missile blast, and obtained a back-up set of armor - that once worn by Jango Fett - he kept on Ma'ar Shaddam. Fett then tracked Nu down and defeated him in one-on-one combat. Nu was stripped of the Mandalorian armor and left in just his underwear, as a reminder that Boba Fett was still the number one bounty hunter in the galaxy. (T18)

Nuala Marauders
this group of space pirates was active during the last decades of the Old Republic. (ASNG)

Nuance
this was one of the many Strike-class cruisers that made up the front lines of the Imperial Naval fleet. (TIE)

Nu-Ar, Fem
this woman was the chief assistant to Doctor Xathan, during the height of the New Order. They were hired by the Empire to locate the planet Seoul 5. When their research led the Imperial to the correct planet, both of them were bound and imprisoned beneath the planet's surface. Only the timely appearance of Han Solo allowed them to get free. (MC84)

Nub Saar
this was the first of the floating cities built in the atmosphere of the planet Genarius. It was founded by a Trandoshan named Russok, who ordered round-the-clock work on its construction in order to have it ready for occupancy. He drew people to the station with claims of the unlimited potential for wealth in mining the gas clouds. However, Russok and his people were unprepared for the radiation storms which swept across the planet. During one of these intense storms, Nub Saar suffered a catastrophic failure in its repulsorlift systems. The radioactive winds of the storm buffeted Nub Saar for nearly two weeks, killing every living thing on the city by shredding them to pieces at the atomic level. Much of the structure of Nub Saar was reduced to rubble, and the husk of the city remained aloft after achieving a kind of orbit in the clouds. Subsequent builders of floating cities on Genarius used the examples of Nub Saar in designing future cities. There were rumors that clusters of beings survived in the ventilation and sewer systems, but were genetically altered by the radiation. Some 20,000 beings supposedly lived in the city, but no records of their existence has been found. However, investigations into the state of Nub Saar were officially prohibited by the government of the Cularin System, so it was impossible to ascertain what really happened. The government, for its own part, declared Nub Saar to be the example of how to build a floating city in orbit around Genarius, claiming that there was a lower limit to the altitude of a city, below which it would suffer the same sorts of massive damage the Nub Saar experienced. The former Jedi Knight Dazen Mok didn't agree with this explanation, and set out to investigate Nub Saar for himself. He found that Nub Saar was just over two kilometers lower than Tolea Biqua, which had suffered through radiation storms and survived. Dazen Mok theorized that Nub Saar had, in reality, been attacked by something born of the Dark Side of the Force. This dark force had once been roused by Karae Nalvas to help him build his floating fortress of Conkesta, and that had been living within the clouds of Genarius until it awakened by the presence of the new city. (LFC, LFCW)

Nuba City
this was the capital city of the planet Nubia. Located on the side of a mountain range on the planet's western continent, Nuba City was an industrial city which was often shrouded in a dense layer of smog. (CCW)

Nubassa
this Selkath worked as a curator at a museum on his homeworld of Manaan, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. (KOTOR)

Nubblyk
a Slyte, Nubblyk was Plawal's town boss just prior to the Battle of Endor. He played a high-stakes game of smuggling out parts and valuables left behind by Imperials, primarily xylen chips, gold wire, and gems. He disappeared unexpectedly. (COJ)

Nubia
this planet, located on the outer edge of the Core Worlds, was home to the Nubians, who produce many specialized starship components. Nubia was located along the Corellian Run, just beyond Corellia and Froz. The planet was first colonized some 22,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, who realized that its bleak appearance was merely a façade. Much of the planet's landmass was considered arid by most standards, but huge underground aquifers provided water for irrigation. This allowed the colonists to quickly provide food for themselves. Over time, the agriculture of Nubia came to provide much of the foodstuffs for the sector. The mountains of the planet were rich in ores and minerals, which fueled the menufacture of a variety heavy machinery. Note that the galaxy map inside Star Wars Insider, issue 65, indicates that Nubia is in the Colonies Region, along the border with the Inner Rim. (SW1, IWE1, BP, SWI65, CCW)

Nubia Star Drives, Incorporated
this starship hyperdrive manufacturer designed some of the most artistic components ever seen. Nubian designs often incorporated J-type engine configurations. The Nubians were renowned for other starship components as well, including sublight engines and spaceframes. Originally known as the Nubian Design Collective, this corporation was formed by a group of humans, Bith, Zabrak, and Sullustans some 300 years before the Battle of Naboo. This loose coalition of designers and engineers claimed Nubia as their own world, and set out to produce high-technology starships for wealthy clients. When Emperor Palpatine instituted the New Order, the corporation went underground to try and keep their designs out of the Empire's hands. In the wake of the Battle of Endor, Nubia Star Drives returned to the galactic community and once again began creating their unique designs in public. (CCW, NEGV, NEGW)

Nubian
this was the name used to describe the human inhabitants of the planet Nubia. Descended from colonists who first arrived on the planet more than 22,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, the Nubians were considered some of the hardest working - and hardest playing - beings in the galaxy. (CCW)

Nubian
see Nubia Star Drives, Incorporated (SW1, X1, CCW)

Nubian B4 Cloudbus
this vehicle, produced by Nubia Star Drives, Incorporated, was used throughout the galaxy for public mass transportation. Its elongated-oval shaped fuselage measured 10.5 meters in length, and could accommodate up to thirty-six passengers and 200 kilograms of cargo. (CCW)

Nubian Design Collective
this was the original name of Nubia Star Drives, Incorporated. (NEGV)

Nubian Palace
this was the largest and most luxurious resort found in orbit around the planet Nubia. Located within the Palace's huge grounds were twelve different casinos, four holovid theaters, a virtual reality suite, and the Solar Gardens. Unknown to most Nubians, the Palace was owned by Prall the Hutt. Prall used the Palace and its many locations as his base of operations. (CCW)

Nubon
this Ithorian surname was believed to mean "builder" or "architect", according to historian who studied the Ithorian race. (GCG)

Nuboocha
this Hutt traveled to the planet Zeltros to recruit female dancers for his court, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. However, after experiencing the near-constant partying on the planet, Nuboocha decided to stay on Zeltron. Only the strict zoning laws of the Zeltrons kept him from moving his entire business to the planet. (PH)

Nubus
this star was the central body of the Nubus System. (CCW)

Nud
this common Zabrak surname meant "weaponsmith". (GCG)

Nudd chaa!
