Luckily for Urothko, the elder Stalpaac intervened. Stalpaac shot the spirit with a bowcaster quarrel, then the two Wookiees launched an attack on the spirirt. Graaa'shad quickly retreated and fled, screaming that one day it would get revenge. In the aftermath of the battle, Urothko pledged his life to Stalpaac, since the older Wookiee had risked his own life to save him.

Grahvess, Emd
this man was generally considered the greatest freelance architect of the New Order, outside of those beings hired by Emperor Palpatine himself. When the Shell Hutts ordered Gheeta to design and build a new diplomatic complex, Gheeta was given an unlimited budget with which to hire Grahvess. However, Grahvess was no dummy. He caught wind of Gheeta's plans to kill him once the job was complete, thereby eliminating the need to pay the architect. In a bold move, Grahvess put out a huge bounty on his own head, eventually employing Boba Fett to ensure he was recovered from Circumtore before Gheeta could execute him. In deference to part of the bounty, Fett asked Grahvess to install secret weapons systems and storage compartments in the main hall of the diplomatic complex, for later use in dealing with the Shell Hutts. The plan worked to perfection, and Grahvess escaped the Shell Hutts' grasp. (MA)

Grain Fly
this insect pest was native to the planet Sacorria, where it consumed huge amounts of harvested grains. As if the destruction of crops wasn't enough, the grain fly also delivered a painful bite when attacked. Since the grain flies always traveled an swarms, any being caught by the swarm suffered many bites at one time, and was often renedered unconscious from the pain. Extermination of the grain fly population was given the go-ahead when xenobiologists learned that the grain fly existed without interaction with any other species on the planet. However, getting rid of these pests proved easier said than done. (EGP, CCW)

Grain Maggot
an insect native to Nal Hutta, the Hutts roasted them and ate them as a delicacy. (DS)

TaggeCo and Karflo both established their headquarters in Graith, from which their mining operations could be monitored. During the evolution of the Gorothites, Graith became the planetary capital of Goroth Prime. Over the 100 years leading up to the Battle of Yavin, Graith was hit by three major earthquakes. (GSE)

native to the planet Ealor, this species of tall, furred humanoids was on the cusp of gaining true sentience for several millennia. They lived in groups of 30 to 40 individuals, and were hunters by nature. Their "society" was based on survival of the fittest, with the strongest hunters being allowed to continue the species. They exhibited several traits which indicated they worked for the betterment of their species, including the protection of the young and the females during battle. Graiveh mate for life, and families remained intact for several generations. However, graiveh seemed to understand that genetic diversity would help ensure their survival, so offspring were often exchanged among families in different groups to expand the gene pool. (COG)

Grakchawwaa
this Wookiee was considered the leader of the Royal Families of Kashyyyk, during the final years of the Old Republic. King Grakchawwaa was approached by representatives of the Trade Federation during the height of the Clone Wars, who hoped to enlist the aid of the Wookiees - and take control of the Kashyyyk System - the fight against the Old Republic. Grakchawwaa was reluctant to join the war on either side, and might have remained neutral until General Grievous killed his son, Prince Rikummee. With his son's death, King Grakchawwaa declared war against the Separatists, and opened Kashyyyk up to the forces of the Grand Army of the Republic. (VIS)

When he alerted Essada about the existence of the Kaiburr crystal and the presence of Leia Organa on Circarpous V, Essada alerted Darth Vader, who arrived on the planet and ordered Grammel to take Luke and Leia prisoner. The attack failed miserably, and Grammel tried to make the right excuses to appease Vader. Vader had none of it, and bisected Grammel with his lightsaber. (SME)

Gramps
this was a nickname used by the members of the Desert Wind terrorist group to describe their former leader, Thak Val Zsing. (TCD)

Gran
a race of three-eyed humanoids native to the planet Kinyen, the Gran have tan skin. Their eyes are set out away from their heads on thick stalks, and they have large ears. Their eyes are adapted for seeing into the visible spectrum as well as the infrared spectrum. They evolved from a herbivorous species, and have two ruminant stomachs to digest their food. Note that Dark Rendezvous indicates that Grans have four stomachs. The females have three breasts, which they use to suckle their young. In general, Gran are peaceful and hospitable, and no conflicts have been noted in their 10,000 year history. They are strongly attached to their families and their race in general; all Gran mate for life, with the survivor usually dying of a broken heart shortly after its mate's death. Their infrared sight allows the Gran to detect their companion's emotional state. About 1,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, the Gran began traveling through space and establishing colonies on worlds such as Hok and Malastare. This separation created gaps in the civilization on Kinyen, and the leaders were forced to prevent more Grans from leaving as well as to prevent any form of immigration. This isolationism cut off the Gran colonies from their homeworld, and allowed the colonies to act independently. In the case of the Gran Protectorate of Malastare, it also removed them from the established social norms of Kinyen. The Gran race was hesitant to join the galactic community of the Old Republic, fearing that they would become diluted by huge distances. They remained isolated from the Republic, for the most part, and the Old Republic respected their wishes. After the birth of the New Order, the Gran organized peaceful protests against Palpatine's rule. However, they were quickly subjugated by the Empire. On their own, the Gran developed space travel, and have developed a healthy trade route with the Herglics. (GG12, TJP, CCG7, SWDB, YDR)

Gran
this was the native language of the Gran. (ANT)

Gran Protectorate
this was the name given to the Gran leadership which controlled the planet Malastare for many years during the Old Republic. They were infamous for Grans, due to their subjugation and poor treatment of the native Dug population. (SWDB)

Grand

Grand Aderian Range
this is a huge, kilometer-deep canyon found on the planet Vykos. (SWJ8)

Grand Admiral
this was the highest rank an Imperial Navy officer could reach, originally establihed by Emperor Palpatine during Fete Week two years prior to the Battle of Yavin. At the time of the Battle of Endor, there were only twelve Grand Admirals in the Navy. They were distinguished from other Imperial officers by their stark, white uniforms, and Palpatine often referred to them as his "Circle of Twelve". The Alliance maintained records of each Grand Admiral's whereabouts, in order to ensure that they didn't get a chance to rally Imperial forces. Among the twelve known Grand Admirals at that time were Martio Batch, Nial Declann, Josef Grunger, Ishin Il-Raz, Afsheen Makati, Danetta Pitta, Pecatti Syn, Miltin Takel, Osvald Teshik, Rufaan Tigellinus, Demetrius Zaarin, and the so-called "Last Grand Admiral," Admiral Grant. The most infamous of them all, however, was the thirteenth Grand Admiral, Thrawn, who filled the void left when Zaarin was killed during his own attempt to become Emperor. By the time the Imperial Remnant agreed to a peace treaty with the New Republic, Pellaeon was believed to the only surviving Grand Admiral, a rank he had earned well after the death of Thrawn. (GDV, HTTE, SWJ8, SESB, VOF, FOP, ECH, SWI66)

Grand Alderaanian Gathering
this annual event was held in the royal pavillion of the ruling house of Alderaan. (VOF)

Grand Arena
located in the beautiful Floating City of Aquilaris, the Grand Arena was the starting point for many of the podraces which were hosted by Nave Vengaris during the last decades of the Old Republic. (RAC)

Grand Army of the Republic
the ground-based arm of the Old Republic's military, it was formed in response to the build-up of Separatist battle droids on Geonosis, just prior to the onset of the Clone Wars. It was based on the decision by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine to address the growing question of secession from the Republic, in an effort to put a stronger face on the Republic's desire to remain a single entity. Outwardly, Palpatine demanded that the Galactic Senate approve the formation of the Army as a fall-back option in the event that a peaceful solution could not be found. In reality, the vote was already decided through a series of bribes and blackmail, and paved the way for Palpatine's taking control of the galaxy as Emperor. Many members of the Galactic Senate opposed the formation of the GAR, preferring to work out a peaceful solution. However, the capture of Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi by Count Dooku on Geonosis forced the Senate to re-evaluate the situation. It was the oration of Jar-Jar Binks, standing in for Senator Padme' Amidala of Naboo - who, ironically, was also a prisoner on Geonosis - that called for the approval of emergency powers for Chancellor Palpatine. With these new powers, Palpatine created the GAR. When it was founded, the GAR was formed from the 1,200,000 clones discovered on Kamino by Jedi Master Yoda. Over time, various disciplines were trained into the clones, ranging from standard troopers to clone commandos and ARC Troopers. At the height of the conflict, the GAR numbered some 3,000,000 troops, while the Special Forces Brigade added another 50,000 specialists. During the three years of fighting that led up to the First Battle of Coruscant and the end of the Clone Wars, more than half of the original clones had been killed in combat. However, their numbers accounted for the destruction of billions of battle droids. Each of the primary divisions of the GAR was commanded by a Jedi Knight or Master, depending on the scope of the division. As a rule, each Jedi was given a clone commander to work with, as a bodyguard and liaison to the troops. This arrangement proved quite useful when Order 66 was issued, as it ensured that every Jedi leader on the battlefield was covered by a clone commander. (MTS, HNN4, HIV, LEV, SHPT, SWI74, SWI84)

Grand Audience Chamber
this huge, open space located at the top of the Great Temple on Yavin 4 was left intact by the Alliance engineers who excavated the temple for use as their command base. Its natural beauty was awe-inspiring, and the feelings it invoked could not be modified by future generations. It was here that Princess Leia awarded medals of honor to Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Chewbacca following the Battle of Yavin. Later, Luke Skywalker also chose to leave the chamber intact when he established his Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4. (SW, GG, P)

Grand Avenue
this was a wide, triumphal procession route located on the planet Chandrila. (GSE)

Grand ChikatLik
this fine hotel was located in the capital city of ChikatLik, on the planet Ord Cestus, during the height of the Clone Wars. It was one the first of the completely new prisons built when the planet was first set aside as a penal facility, some 300 years earlier. Most of the original prisons were created from the natural caverns found in the planet's crust. About fifty years before the Battle of Geonosis, the facility was converted to a hotel. The building was essentially an amalgamation of apartments and cubicles that had been added to the original edifice over the decades, although the external façade was smoother over to make it more appealing. (TCD)

Grand Colonnade
this was one of the largest shopping centers located on the planet Brentaal. It was owned and operated by the Kallean League, which scoured the galaxy in an effort to provide patrons with a wide variety of goods. The atrium of the Grand Colonnade was designed by the noted Ithorian craftsman, Gm'uyal. (WOTC)

Grand Conclave
see Great Ritual (LFCW)

Grand Concourse, The
this was the name given to the immense, circular hallway which led from The Atrium of the Old Republic's Senate Rotunda and provided access to the Convocation Center and the entire lower ring of the building. The Grand Concourse started and ended in The Atrium, but allowed beings to reach virtually any section of the Rotunda. After the Yuuzhan Vong took control of Coruscant and terraformed it into a new version of Yuuzhan'tar, much of the Grand Concourse was destroyed or bored out and refilled with yorik coral growths. (T, UF, E3N)

Grand Convocation Chamber
this structure was built to replace the old Senate Hall on the planet Coruscant, destroyed when Dolph's first attack on the New Republic laid it to rubble. Both the Senate Hall and the Convocation Chamber were built upon the foundation of the former Galactic Senate Rotunda. Unlike the Senate Hall, in which the delegates' seats were arranged in semi-circular rows surrounding a dais, the Convocation chamber had a multitude of configurable blocks of seats. These blocks were arranged in a seemingly random pattern which, when viewed as a whole, spread out in a graceful and stylish array. Each group of seats was separated by soundproof barriers which allowed a clear view of the entire chamber but, when the President deactivated the sound system, isolated each set of delegates and quieted the entire hall. When Borsk Fey'lya killed himself in an effort to destroy a good portion of the Yuuzhan Vong force which eventually subjugated Coruscant, the Convocation Chamber was one of the few buildings in the vicinity of the Imperial Palace which avoided taking major damage. Its survival was due mainly to its structural engineering, but also to the fact that the Yuuzhan Vong had decided to use the Chamber to house the World Brain that would control Coruscant's transformation into a simulacrum of Yuuzhan'tar. (SOP, SBS, T, UF)

Grand Corridor
located in the Imperial Palace on Coruscant, the Grand Corridor is a tree-lined path that leads to the many assembly halls and meeting rooms used by the Empire and the New Republic. It was built by Emperor Palpatine to link the Council Chamber and the Assemblage auditorium. It intersects the hallway housing the senatorial suites and offices. Palpatine then added the multi-hued ch'hala tress that line it, and thus created the eavesdropping system known as Delta Source. Many historical architects believed that an entire Star Destroyer could fit within the walls of the Grand Corridor. (DFR, CCW)

Grand Council
this was the name given to the highest court of Senators in the New Republic. (POT)

Grand Cruiser
this was the New Republic's designation for the largest of the Yuuzhan Vong warships. Later models, used in battle after the destruction of Obroa-skai, had a separate module, known as a keeper, which traveled with them. The keeper contained independent dovin basals, allowing the ship to take fire but not lose shield strength. (DTR, HT)

Grand Daern
this title is given to the leader of the Marasan race. The Grand Daern has direct control of the Mindnet, and makes his decisions based on the data provided by the electnodes. (GG12)

Grand Design, The
this spacers' bar, located in the spaceport on the moon of Travnin, is a circular building famous for its unique design. The entire bar rotates - not just the room, but the holo-projectors, tables, drinking glasses, and certain chairs rotate on their own. Anyone not involved with the transport of goods and services throughout the Minos Cluster is politely asked to leave. (GG6)

Grand Dining Room
this was the most luxurious dining facility found on Bespin's Cloud City, during the height of the New Order. It was here that Darth Vader received Han Solo and Leia Organa, shortly after the Battle of Hoth. (GG3)
