Because of this, he was the last of the Grand Admirals that anyone would have believed would be the one to survive the longest. In the aftermath of the Battle of Endor, Grant found himself without a political sponsor, and ws forced to seek sanctuary within the Pentastar Alignment. After seeing many of the other Grand Admirals kill themselves in petty border disputes, Grant defected to the New Republic on the condition that he be granted diplomatic immunity. The New Republic believed that all the Grand Admirals had been accounted for, in the wake of the Battle of Endor, but had not learned of the existence of Grand Admiral Thrawn.

Grappa then traveled to Smarck, where he purchased the real Feena D'Asta from Macus Kayniph for a shipment of gree spice. He then developed a plan, with the help of Y'ull Acib and Black Sun, to replace Xandel Carivus with a clone, thereby placing their own puppet in control of the Imperial Interim Ruling Council. He also served as the mediary between the Zanibar and the Empire, after Zzzanmxl's forces caught Kir Kanos on Xo. However, the clones developed by Macus Kayniph and sent to eliminate Carivus were killed, and their link to Black Sun was exposed by the Council.

New Republic forces then confronted Grappa, led by Mirith Sinn herself. She ordered Grappa to return Feena D'Asta and Kir Kanos, then locked the Hutt in one of his own holding cells.

this fashionable, sable-furred Wookiee was a friend and first mate to Shamus Falconi. Grasheel always was on the leading edge of fashion, and often wore his fur braided with gems or trinkets. Large earrings, scarves, and jewelry were constantly changing his appearance. Many people are frightened by Wookiees, and the sight of a brightly-jeweled beast is often unsettling. Many of the jewels and trinkets braided into his fur had special, personal meanings. A large hoop earring was given to him by a Socorran smuggler. This habit was formed at an early age, when Grasheel was sold into slavery. Any possessions he did not keep close to his body were stolen. He maintained the habit after he was rescued by a group of Algor pirates, from whom he learned starship engineering. After a strange occurrance in a spacer bar called the Airlock, Grasheel ended up owning half of the Lumrunner, and he found himself in business with Shamus Falconi.

Grasser

Grasser
this species of large herdbeast was raised by the Korunnai natives of Haruun Kal. They used trained akk dogs to keep the huge grassers in their herds. Grassers had coats of silky fur that helped them maintain their body heat, and they moved about on six powerful legs. The four frontmost legs were used to pull up vegetation and shove it into the grasser's huge mouth. The head of the grasser was dominated by three large eyes, which gave the grasser the ability to look left, right, and up in search of food or predators. The name grasser was given to these creatures by the native Korunnai, who observed that the grasser left behind a meadow-like swath as they moved through jungles, consuming all plantlife in their path. The Korunnai learned to follow the grasser herds to safety during the winters, when Downstorms were prevalent. It was for this reason that grasser herds were protected by the Korunnai and their trained akk dogs. (ETM, SHPT)

Grasstrekkers

The Grasstrekkers once tried to take over the fortress of the Gupin people, forcing Punt to give them the key to the Guniepal Chest in the hopes of rendering the Gupins helpless.

Grath was one of the original founders of the Freelies, along with his friend Flip. When Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi were dispatched to Vorzyd 4 to mediate the dispute between Port and Felana, his counterpart on Vorzyd 5, Obi-Wan discovered that it was the Freelies who were behind the acts of sabotage that were affected production on Vorzyd 4. Grath and the Freelies chafed at the constant drive to work which was part of the Vorzydiak culture, and wanted to obtain more free time for "fun." Grath was one of the loudest voices among the Freelies with respect to ensuring that their sabotage did not injure anyone, a stance which grated on Flip and his friend, Tray. When Flip altered the plans to bomb the Multycorp, in order to catch the adults as they were entering the building, Grath and Obi-Wan tried to warn everyone. Most of the Vorzydiaks managed to escape, but Flip was caught in the blast. In the wake of Flip's death, Grath and the Freelies agreed to work with Chairman Port to reschedule worktime and downtime to better accommodate free time for the Vorzydiaks. (TTW)

When he realized that he had captured Luke, as well as Leia Organa, Grau ordered his men to keep them alive. Despite the obvious notoriety to be gained from capturing the Alliance heroes, Grau knew that he wasn't going to get off Alashan without their help. He offered them a truce, so that they could work together and figure out what was going on. When Luke and Leia rescued Grau from an avalanche, he gladly accepted their comradeship, and returned their weapons in hopes of affecting better protection for the group.
