Rimkar
this alien was one of Tatooine's best pod racers, although he invariably lost races to Sebulba. Rimkar's pod racer was unique among the pods, having a bubble shape instead of something more streamlined. This allowed glancing blows from an opponent's pod racer to slide off, rather than cause damage. However, on a preliminary podrace leading up to the Boonta Eve spectacular, Rimkar failed to properly compensate for the demands of Metta Drop, and destroyed his pod. Note that the Star Wars: Episode I Insider's Guide claims Rimkar was killed when Sebulba forced him to crash into the face of a cliff. (SW1, TPM, IG1)

During the height of the Clone Wars, Separatist forces planned to litter the route with proximity mines, hoping to cut off travel for the the Old Republic. The plan was thwarted when the Metrobig Interplanetary Blastport on Skor II was liberated by Jedi Master Mace Windu. Still, the entire Rimward leg of the Rimma Trade Route had eventually been cut off from Republic shipping concerns, after planets long that portion of the route joined the Confederacy of Independent Systems. (SS, PGT, SWI69, LEV)

A collection of more than 1,200 decanters of liquor, along with a wide selection of stimulants and depressants, could be mixed and matched to produce virtually any concoction. Within the walls of the Rimmer's Rest were more than 100 private booths, many of which were configured to support the needs of a variety of alien species. (RAG)

RiMPack
this cybernetic implant is created by 'Geneering Corporation, and is the abbreviated form of Response iMprovement Package. The RiMPack is an extensive replacement of the body's nervous system with a fine neural web of reflex threads produced by the Poraskors of Betal. The neural net has a bio-interface which communicates with the recipient's brain. With a RiMPack, the individual's entire sensory system goes into hyperdrive. They receive incredible amounts of sensor data, and the bio-interface allows them to process it at incredible speeds. This intense sensory load often drives the recipient into intense spasms of paranoid irrationality. (CFG)

Rimrunner
this was the name of Salla Zend's first smuggling ship. She acquired the ship after leaving her job as a tech on a corporate transport. It was a Gymsnor-4 light freighter, and was often referred to a resembling a mynock by Salla's friends. She and Han Solo flew their ships in the Kessel Run several times, and the Millennium Falcon beat the Rimrunner more often than not. In a fateful attempt to beat Han, Salla flew the Rimrunner in a microjump across the mouth of the Maw. The re-entry into realspace fried her instruments and lef the ship adrift among the black holes. Han managed to rescue Salla, but the Rimrunner was consumed in the Maw. The fact that she nearly died shook Salla quite hard. (THG, RD)

He later took the Corusca Fire to Dantooine, where is served as one of the leading ships in the defense of Dantooine against the Yuuzhan Vong. It was responsible for protecting the refugees fleeing from Dubrillion to Agamar, and nearly destroyed a Yuuzhan Vong worldship in the battle. The only reason it was at the battle in the first place was because Rimsen had learned that Leia Organa Solo had petitioned Agamar for help when the New Republin turned a blind eye to the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. Rimsen ignored his patrol orders and flew to Dantooine, saving the refugees from almost certain destruction. (DTO, NJOSB)

Rimsoo One
this was the term used to describe the ground-based medical headquarters of the Grand Army of the Republic, during the height of the Clone Wars. A Rimsoo One facility was constructed on each planet with an active battlefront, and all other Republic Mobile Surgical Units - RMSUs - were erected on subsequent areas of combat. All other Rimsoos were numbered sequentially, starting with Rimsoo Two, for ease of identification. (MBS)

Rimsoo Seven
this was one of many Republic Mobile Surgical Units that were established behind the battlefields of the planet Drongar during the Clone Wars. The facility was attacked during the height of the Jasserak Engagement, an action that went against most accepted military conventions. Up until that point, neither side had purposely attacked the other's medical facilities, in an effort to preserve life wherever possible. However, Rimsoo Seven was overrun in short order, leading to the deaths of many patients and at least one doctor, Zan Yant. The facility was eventually relocated eighty kilometers southeast of its previous position. (MBS)

Rin Assid
this legendary adventurer and businessman was known in his day as Assid the Lucky. His exploits during the fourth millennium of the Old Republic became the stuff of myths and legends.

this staunch Imperial supporter worked for Darth Vader himself as a sentientologist, collecting information on the galaxy's many intelligent, non-human races. Rin also developed a "universal definition of life" for use in identifying the difference between living and nonliving creatures. While his work helped expand the information known about many unusual races, Rin's intensely pro-human stance led to several incorrect theories about several species. He made a number of harmless species out to be cold-blooded killers, including the Proteans and Ugors. He also made vocal claims that the planet Mon Calamari had first been discovered by Imperial scouts, which contradicted decades of Old Republic history. (GG4, GG8, SWJ12, GORW)

Rina Fio
this Vulptereen female served as the President of Viper Sensor Intelligence Systems during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. She was removed from office when Arakyd Industries launched an assault on VSIS headquarters on Vulpter, in response to VSIS' theft of the plans for probe droids. Rina Fio and her directors spent their entire security budget on hiding the development of the XPLR-R droid, leaving the corporate security force at minimal strength. They were no match for Arakyd's AAD-4 assault droids. Rina Fio was removed from her position as President, but remained an employee for Arakyd after the takeover. (HNN5)

located near the High Castle on Jomark, this natural lake was formed in the crater of the ancient volcano housing the High Castle. The castle itself was situated nearly 400 meters above Ring Lake, affording a spectacular view of its brilliant, blue waters. It was named because the waters of the lake surrounded a single island, creating a ring of water in the crater. This small island served as the base of operations for Grand Admiral Thrawn's Imperial forces, sent to Jomark to protect Joruus C'Baoth during his attempt to capture Luke Skywalker, some five years after the Battle of Endor. (DFR)

Ring, The
this small nebula was considered part of the Twin Nebulae, located in the Greater Javin area of the galaxy.

The RSSF was formed early in the history of the Ringali Shell, and was the premier security force in the area before the Old Republic expanded its borders and left behind a small fleet. (FOP)

Ringed Moon Shadowmoth
this species of moth was native to the planet Coruscant. It was noted for its incredibly beautiful wingsong, a form of music created when the moth beat its wings in the night skies. Shadowmoths were nocturnal, so beings who wanted to hear their song had to wait up for it. What was unusual about the shadowmoth was its silicate-based cocoon. This cocoon was incredibly tough, and was seemingly too strong for the larval shadowmoth to break through. However, each infant moth was equipped with a speciallized beak with which to crack the cocoon. In the struggle to break free, the shadowmoth's own body was strengthened, so that it could survive once it had evolved into a moth. Many beings felt that the cocoon was too strong, and often assisted the shadowmoth in getting free. While the intentions of these individuals were good, the shadowmoth was not forced to break free on its own, an activity which strengthened its wings and developed a stronger body. Because they could not fly, these shadowmoths often died because it was unable to survive. (T)

Ringer
ringer was a sport popular on the planet Stassia during the Imperial occupation of the planet. Entire tournaments are set up for it, culminating in the week-long Sweepstakes each year. All participants, known as tossers, were required to use the same equipment: small metallic disks which could be thrown through the air. Each contestant stood behind a line, facing an open area filled with rings. Each ring was different: some were held in place, while others swayed on lines or floated on tiny repulsors. The goal for each player was to toss their disk through as many rings as they could, gauging the direction and force of each throw to pass through the maximum number of rings. Among the rings was the Ace Ring, which was worth more points than the others, and could help a tosser quickly gain points. It was difficult at best, though, to put a disk through the Ace. (SWJ6)

Ringneldia II
this planet, the second world in the Ringneldia System, was the manufacturing center of the Centrality. The natives of the planet were known to have developed a measuring system that was based on the sizes of its indigenous legumes.

this thin-bodied Skrilling was one of the miners who worked for the Banvhar Combine during the final years of the Old Republic. He was also a slicer, although he was the first to admit that his skills were often inadequate to break the more modern encryptions. When General Grievous attacked the asteroid mining operations of the Combine, Rini and his team were able to steal three Trade Federation probe droids, which he was able to reconfigure for his own needs. These droids were later placed at the disposal of Flynn Kybo, during the yougn Jedi's search for Grievous. (SWGG)

Rinit, Nir
this Imperial Security Bureau agent was assigned to seek out Alliance activities in the space surrounding the planet Naalol, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. He was known to have employed a variety of mercenaries and other goons to do his dirty work.

Rinn
this remote, Outer Rim planet was the homeworld of the Tin-Tin Dwarves. (EGA)

Rinn, Denglass
this man was installed as the Imperial Prefect of Kallistas simply because he couldn't cause any harm to the Empire there. He was a paranoid man who suffered from a series of delusions, many of which he developed to explain his slow progress up the Imperial power ladder. He maintained a set of long, jet black mustachioes and beard. He chafed at the preceived "lack of respect" he received from Governor Linrec, and was openly defiant about many trivial matters. He plotted with the Mantis Bounty Hunter Syndicate and a minor Imperial official on Revkinn to destroy Linrec's career, hoping to take over Kallistas for himself and reaping the profits from the sales of gemstones and radioactive isotopes. Rinn began importing weapons, with the help of Tarquin Zian, and started stockpiling the isotopes in order to manufacture bombs. After arranging for the capture of Pallas Quintell, and upon hearing of Cressis Linrec's plans to marry Jondrell Inx, Rinn offered a bounty for Inx's capture. The bounty hunters nearly captured the pirate, but had to settle for returning Cressis to her father.

Rishi
the third world orbiting the star Rish, Rishi was the backwater world where Talon Kaarde tried to hide from the Empire following the discovery and infiltration of his base on Myrkr. It was the homeworld of the Rishii, and was known as the base for the religious sect called the H'kig. The native Rishii allowed offworlders to visit the planet, so long as they didn't break the religious laws. Of the habitable land found on Rishi, much of it was swampland that had to be drained in order to provide a stable building platform. Over time, this created large sinkholes, and the colonists who settled the planet were forced to relocate their homes inside these sinkholes. The rest of the planet was carved by deep canyons. Rishi's crust has a few marketble metal ores which were mined by the native humans. The planet had an orbit of about 268 local days, each of which lasted 20 standard hours. (DFR, DFRSB, SWI80)

Rishi Maze
although many beings who first hear of this name come to think of the Rishi Maze as a remote trade route that was located beyond the Outer Rim Territories, in reality the Rishi Maze was a irregular dwarf galaxy that was completely contained within the known galaxy. The Rishi Maze was gravitationally locked in place, and the multitude of stars and planets caused all manner of trouble for hyperspace travel in the area. Thus, the name Rishi Maze came about, because any hyperspace routes through the Maze were incredibly snarled. (AOTCN, SWI80)

Rishi Rift
this interstellar deadzone was located near the planet Rishi. (GMR4)

Rishii
this species of small, flying creatures was native to the mountainous regions of the planet Rishi.

The Rishii considered the offworlder who settled on their planet to be curiosities, not understanding their need to live in the lowlands. The Rishii were very interested in the "shiny rocks" used by the settlers - their spaceships - because they allowed species without natural wings to fly. (DFR, DFRSB, AE, EGA)
