Gravan Seven
it was at this planet that Talon Squadron hoped to take out an Imperial base. However, they were ambushed by an entire wing of Imperial starfighters, and all but Myn Donos were shot down and killed. The planet's atmosphere was quite toxic, being formed from the gases expelled by hundreds of active volcanoes. (WS)

Grav-ball
this sport became popular during the last decades of the Old Republic, and its popularity continued wel into the era of the New Order. Originally a Rodian hunting competition geared toward honing a hunter's marksmanship skills in a three-dimensional arena, grav-ball evolved into a full-fledged sport played across the galaxy. Using repulsor-equipepd chairs which provided incredible maneuverability, teammates used low-powered repulsor blasts to move a small sphere across the playing field. The idea was to get the sphere across the opponent's goal line. The playing field was a boxed-shaped arena measuring 150 meters in length, 50 meters in width, and 50 meters in height. The playing sphere was equipped with a small repulsor engine, and moved about in an erratic fashion when hit. This made the sphere's position difficult to judge. (GFT, HNN4)

Grav-ball Federation
this was the largest grav-ball association, based on the planet Nubia during the height of the New Order. (CCW)

Grav-car
a term used to describe almost any land-based repulsorcraft. (KT)

Gravdinian Ale
this was considered one of the galaxy's most "dangerous" beers. A sweet beer once it has fully fermented, Gravdinian Ale gave off a strong vapor as it fermented. In concentrated amounts, this vapor could be lethal. (SWJ5)

Grave Tuskens
these creatures inhabit the world Sulon, and scavenge the dead for any possessions. They were originally brought to the moon by Imperial forces to serve as "enforcers" during the early mining operations began. When Jerec and his Dark Jedi came to Sulon to obtain the location of the Valley of the Jedi from Morgan Katarn, Maw used the Dark Side of the Force to coerce the Grave Tuskens into assisting them. Maw left a large contingent of them in and around Katarn's house, hoping to deflect any pursuit. (DF2, RAG)

Gravel maggot
native to Tatooine, these scavengers eat rotting flesh. (SWN)

Gravel storm
a terrible storm experienced on Tatooine, where the wind is strong enough to propel rocks, sand, and other loose derbis. (SW)

Graven, Ruto
this man, a native of the planet Naboo, served as Queen Amidala's Minster of Internal Affair, shortly before the Battle of Naboo. Graven was captured by Trade Federation battle droids, during the first wave of the invasion of the planet. Before being captured, Graven learned that Amidala had escaped Naboo and was on her way to Coruscant. (IOT)

Graveyard
this was the name given to the asteroid belt created by the destruction of the planet Alderaan. Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, the Royal Treasury of Aladeraan was discovered within the floating rubble. Soon after, rumors surfaced that the Royal Palace of Alderaan had been found intact, hidden inside an asteroid. There were also rumors of ghost ships and Jedi treasures inside the asteroid field. It was in this area that the Warlord Zsinj attacked the New Republic's convoy of bacta from Thyferra, just before Rogue Squadron arrived to escort it to Coruscant. (GA, KT)

Graveyard
this was the name of the starship modification repair facility located aboard Starlyte Station. It was run by the Ugnaught Scizzic during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (WSV)

Graveyard of Lost Ships
this collection of starships orbits a dwarf star. It was created over the years by Doctor Arakkus, and encompassed five interconnected rings of ships following the Battle of Yavin. Arakkus lured the ships near the Graveyard with distress calls, in an attempt to make other suffer as he has suffered. The ships which are lured to the Graveyard fall under the gravitational influence of the dwarf star, and become incapable of escaping its grasp. Like the Graveyard itself, the ships slowly plunge into the dwarf star. Most of the crews captured by Arakkus go insane and kill themselves. The Graveyard was destroyed prior to the Battle of Hoth when Arakkus trapped Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, and Chewbacca aboard the Millennium Falcon. The three tried to help Arakkus escape the doomed rings, but Arakkus fled deep into the network of ships. The Alliance agents set of a series of negatron charges - which had been placed througout the Graveyard by Arakkus - destroying the connected ships and Arakkus as well. (CSW)

Graveyard World
this was another name for the planet Boz Pity, because much of the planet's surface was covered with the graves of a long-dead race. Many of the graves and memorial statues were immense, giving many xenoarchaeologists reason to believe that the planet was once inhabited by a race of giants. (O)

Gravitational Field Disruptor
developed during the last decades of the Old Republic, these devices were commonly used by merchants and transport operators to temporarily alter the gravity surrounding a specific object. The dedicated field created by the disruptor can be set to allow heavy loads to moved about with ease. They can also be modified to work in reverse, causing an object to suddenly become much heavier. (MC48)

Gravitech
manufacturers of starship navigational detection systems. (EGV)

Gravitic Amplitude Modulator
this piece of Imperial technology allowed a starship to modulate gravity in its vicinity. More sophisticated than the gravity well projectors used on Interdictor-class cruisers, the GAM was also much more expensive to develop. Thus, they saw little use onboard warships until the Galactic Alliance showed Imperial engineers how to reprogram it to jam the communications of a Yuuzhan Vong yammosk. This application of a GAM was used successfully at the defense of Borosk. (FH1)

Gravitic Polarization Beam
this device was designed by Professor Falken's students at the Mrlssti Academy. The beam reverses the polarization of matter and splits it apart at the molecular level. The gravitic beam was one of the offshoots of the Phantom Project, and was originally designed to remove large tracts of land for relocation. It was put to military use during the New Republic's bid for control of the Phantom Project, when Rogue Squadron was forced to use it against Loka Hask's Interdictor-class cruiser near Mrlsst. (XWPA)

Gravitic Shield
a rare form of starship shielding that uses an anti-graviton field to counteract the effects of a gravity well projector. A few Imperial assault ships were built with this type of shield near the end of the Galactic Civil War. (SWSB)

Gravitics
the mechanisms that create artificial gravity onboard a spaceship. (SWSB)

Graviton Gauge
this device was essential in monitoring the output of a repulsorlift engine's anti-gravity energy. (E1A14)

Gravity Bomb
this Yevethan weapon disrupted the localized gravity field surrounding a starship, causing intense pressure changes due to shifting starship plating and decking. (CTD)

Gravity Shadow
the hyperspace equivalent of a realspace planet, moon, or other stellar body. They are just as dangerous as their realspace cousins, and can cause substantial damage to ship flying through hyperspace. (SWSB)

Gravity Shear
this was the name given to the unpredictable consequence of a damaged artificial gravity system aboard a starship. Once badly damaged, the artificial gravity generators would randomly change their field of force, causing the relative effects of the artificial gravity to make the ceiling suddenly become the floor. This often happened in spite of the actual, physical relationship of the starship to a planet or nearby gravity source. Thus, a ship that was "upright" with respect to a planet might experience gravity that seemed to come from a 90-degree-angle to the planet. Gravity shear wreaked havoc with furniture and other apparatus that was not secured to the floor, and could cause intense bodily harm to many living beings. (E3N)

Gravity Shift Frame
any small, easily handled device which can alter the effects of gravity in a limited space. Freight droids use them to maneuver large, awkward cargo bins when loading or unloading them. (FTD)

Gravity Well
this amusement attraction was located in the exact center of Hologram Fun World. It served as the primary lodge for visitors to the station, where they could make purchases and exchange credits. (GOF4)

Gravity Well
this was a specialized form of obstacle used in swoopchase racing. The Well was formed from a high-banked ditch. Inside the ditch was a repulsorlify engine designed to attract objects rather that repel them. These engines often sat beneath a collection of rigid spikes or other dangerous devices. If a rider was unable to overcome the downard pull of the repulsorlift engines, their swoop would suddenly be dragged down onto the spikes. Because of the dangerous and deadly nature of the Gravity Well, it was considered an outlaw obstacle by the governing bodies of swoopchase racing. (BSS)

Gravity Well Projector
the device which is used to generate a massive wave of energy, which can disrupt the mass lines of realspace, simulating the presence of an actual planet or other stellar body. If the projector is pushed too hard, it can become overloaded. Once overloaded, the projector becomes a gravity vacuum much like a black hole. (ISB, SH)

Gravity-activated Mode Missile
see GAM Missile (ISB, SWDB)

Gravity-Wave System
this method of detonating a bomb uses specialized circuitry embedded into a weapon's casing. The system senses the strength of the gravity field around it, and can detonate whenever the level reaches a pre-set threshhold. The system is very effective, and cannot be removed from the bomb without causing detonation. It was adopted by the Imperial Navy after the failure of such artillery as the M-12 sweep bomb. (MA)

Gravlex Launchworks
this corporation, based on the planet Gravlex Med, was formed as part of the space prgoram developed by the Anx. The ancient Launchworks used huge cannons to hurl starships into space. After the Anx discovered the sublight and hyperdrive systems, the Launchworks was revamped to hurl garbage from the planet into its star. The basis for this practice came from visits by several Anx politicians and their entourages to Coruscant, where a similar practice had been in use for centuries. During the height of the New Order, Imperial researchers traveled to Gravlex Med to learn the secrets of Gravlex Launchworks, in an effort to use their technology as the basis for a new super-weapon. After subjugating the staff, the Imperials discovered that the Launchworks and its technology were equally useful for discarding failed experiements, since all evidence was incinerated by the sun. An endless supply of garbage, hazardous waste, and other detritus was shipped to the Gravlex Launchworks for incineration, and much of it was housed in poorly-maintained warehouses until it could be processed. Eventually, bio-engineered viruses and bacteria leaked out, causing incredible amounts of environmental damage to Gravlex Med. The native Anx were nearly wiped out, and only those Anx who were living on colony worlds were left of their species. (GMR7)

Gravlex Med
this planet, one of thousands of inhabited worlds in the Raioballo Sector, was the homeworld of the Anx race. It was a world of heavier-than-standard gravity, as evidenced by the stooping posture of the Anx. Note that Star Wars Gamer magazine, issue 7, indicates that Gravlex Med is a low-gravity world. The planet was once an idyllic world, until the Empire took control of the Gravlex Launchworks. Over time, much of the hazardous waste stored on the planet for incineration leaked out of storage facilities, and ultimately caused untold environmental damage to the planet. The native populations of Anx were decimated, and eventually the planet was abandoned as a wasteland. Any orbital facilities established by the Empire were later taken over by the New Republic, and it was here that the Star Destroyer Chimaera was taken for disassembly after the Battle of Bilbringi. However, a team of Imperial insurgents managed to get past the Republic's defenses and recapture the ship. (OWS, COD, UANT, GMR7)

Gravlex Mex
see Gravlex Med (UANT)

Grav-pool
a game of skill popular in many cantinas and taverns, grav-pool was played on a rectangular table. (WSV)

Gravsled
any repulsorlift vehicle with a flat bed, used to transport heavy cargo. (HSR)

Gravstretcher
this was the generic term used to describe any repulsor-equipped gurney or flatbed designed to transport injured people from the site of an accident to an ambulance or medical facility. (TTW)

Gravtrac
a repulsorlift farm vehicle. (GG11)

Grav-trap
this is a component of a starship navigational control system. (RM)

Grav-Vessel Championship
this was one of the most prestigious grav-ball tournaments played during the last decades of the Old Republic. (HNN4)

Graxol Kelvynn
this Anx, a slaver by trade who worked from a base on the planet Ryloth, was known as an affectionado of podracing, and was present at the Boonta Eve Classic race won by nine-year-old Anakin Skywalker. Graxol made several bets with Watto, believing that Anakin would win the race and that Sebulba would not set a speed record during the Boonta. This being is named Graxol Kelvyyn in Star Wars Kids magazine, issue 15. (SWI50, SWK, PRT, OWS, GMR7)

Gray Cove Den
see Kas'as Chen'ru Den (CCW)

Gray Death
this was the name used by the natives of the planet Sedesia to describe the mysterious disease which afflicted them, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. There were rumors that the Gray Death had been engineered by the Empire, and unleashed on the Sedesians in order to quell their rebellious nature. The Alliance sent a team of experts to investigate, especially when the Imperials suddenly claimed to have solved it. The Imperial cure required that every Sedesian receive a regular booster shot. Investigation revealed that the Gray Death was actually the Imperial pathogen known as FNV-23. The "cure" was known as FNV-23-B, and actually contained latent FNV-23 within it. The Alliance managed to discover the secret to FNV-23 and helped the Sedesian people overcome its effects. (SWJ6)

Gray Death
this deadly disease afflicts the Yevethan race. (SOL)

Gray Griffins
this Alliance scouting team assisted Radell Mining Corporation during its initial explorations of the planet Alluuvia. They were captured by the Scourge, a group of pirates who wanted the planet for their own. The Gray Griffins were eventually released when the Alliance dispatched another team of agents to recover them. (OE)

Gray Jedi
this was a term, used by the Jedi Knights, to describe a Jedi Knight or Master who did things their own way, convinced in their own minds that the path they had chosen was the only true path. These Jedi tended to ignore the wisdom of others; although this was not a direct attribute of the Dark Side of the Force, many believed that it was not a trait of the Light Side. (SHW)

Gray Leader
callsign used by Colonel Salm during the Battle of Endor. (ROTJ, CCG11)

Gray Squadron
a group of B-wings during the Battle of Endor. Note that the Star Wars Customizable Card Game - Death Star 2 expansion claims Gray Squadron was made up of Y-Wings, under the command of Colonel Salm. (ROTJ, CCG11)

Gray Squadron
the original designation of Wraith Squadron. (WS)

Gray Talon
this small band of smugglers set up their base of operations on Dantooine, during the height of the New Order. (SWGAL)

Gray Two
this callsign was used by Lieutenant Telsij during the Battle of Endor. Telsij flew his Y-Wing as Colonel Salm's wingman. (CCG11)

Gray Westerly
this was one of the primary trade winds that blew across the Great Sea of Bandomeer. A large portion of the ocean-going traffic used these winds to propel their ships across the water to other ports on the planet. Free-floating mining platforms also moved along the path of the Gray Westerly, trying to track the motions of the bandorium "tides." (GORW)

Gray, Aleson
this Hapan man was a ninth cousin to Queen Mother Tenel Ka Djo, and held the rank of Dukat during the years following the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. He was also the Duch'da of Lady Algray of the Relephon Moons. Because of his prestigious pedigree and his military skills, Gray rose through the ranks of the Hapan Royal Navy until was given command of the Battle Dragon Kendall. He was later chosen by the Queen Mother herself to lead a small task force of Hapan ships to Qoribu, to help defend the Colony against the Chiss. (DN1)

Grayclaw
this was a nickname attributed to Urias Xhaxin, in reference to his cybernetic left hand, which was always covered with a gray bantha-hide glove. (PP)

Graygl
this species of Iskalonian was believed to have once been native to the planet Danalbeth. The Graygl were distinguished by their round, fleshy heads, which were highlighted by flaring nostrils, red eyes, and wide mouths filled with sharp teeth. Despite their intimidating appearance, the Graygl were among the most hospitable of Iskalonians, and often went out of their way to accommodate others. (EGA, GMR1)

Graylite
this was the brand name of Opankro's ceramic-fiber personal combat armor, produced during the last decades of the Clone Wars. (SHPT)

Graywater
a generic term for any water which is not collected from atmospheric sources. Most graywater is recycled from large cities; other graywater is recycled on starships. (SE)

Grayweave
this was a manufactured form of single-celled protein foodstuff, sold to the poorest of beings on the planet Coruscant during the early decades of the New Republic. It resembled thick gray felt in appearance, but didn't taste anywhere near as good as it looked. However, it was basically nutritious, it lasted almost indefinitely, and it could be afforded by the homeless and poor who lived on Coruscant. (EL2)

Grayyshk
this Wookiee's mate contracted the yellow-blood malaise and died while he was accompanying their son on his Test of Ascension. (TT)

Grazer
this mammalian creature was a herd animal that was rasied as a food source on many worlds. There were at least two known species of grazers in the galaxy, one that was native to the planet Ammuud, and the other native to Alderaan. The Ammuud grazer was a large, six-legged beast with prominent antlers on its head. These lumbering creatures grazed the forests and plains of Ammuud, and were the favorite prey of the soarers. When necessary, the grazers could move with incredible speed. The Alderaanian grazers were altered genetically to optimize muscle mass, and became little more that living machines designed to provide a soure of meat. However, a few managed to escape the initial development and established a colony of wild grazers. In contrast to the Ammuud grazer, the Alderaanian grazer had just four legs. The domestic grazer, bred for its meat, could easily obtain heights well over two meters, and their girth was trmendous. It was later discovered that there were some seventeen species of grazers that were found to be living on the eighth moon of Yavin. Grazers and blerds were often used as first-generation creatures on terraformed worlds, because of their grazing habits and their usefulness as food sources. (HSR, GG2, DA, ISU, POT, GG2, WSW)

Grazo
this was the Snivvian word for "please." (HNN5)

Grazz
this former Imperial Moff fashioned himself a small empire and became one of the many warlords who pestered the New Republic during the early years of its government. (MBC)

Gre Shev'starn
this city was located on the western continent of the planet Bothawui. (SPG)

Grea
this female Orfite was known as Elrood Sector's "patron bounty hunter" during the height of the Galactic Civil War. She had worked in the sector since the last years of the Old Republic, and tenaciously guarded her "hunting grounds." Born on Kidron, she was a ruthless and amoral hutner who was also honest and pragmatic in her business dealings. She worked from a mobile base aboard her starship, the Neverquit. (PG3)

Greal
this governmental Secretary maintained a list of the currently-active bounty hunters in and around Feris City, during the Galactic Civil War. (GG10)

Grease Lover
this was the derogatory name used to describe members of the Coalition of Automaton Rights Activists. (FTD)

Great Bantha
a kind of deity worshipped by the Sand People on Tatooine. (GG)

Great Beast
according to Wookiee lore, the Great Beast was first encountered by the ancient chieftain Rothrrrawr in the Shadowlands, many centuries before the onset of the Great Sith War. Rothrrrawr underestimated the beast's ferocity, and was unable to easily kill it. Rothrrrawr carried Bacca's Ceremonial Blade at the time, and lost the blade in the beast's hide when it snapped off at the hilt. The blade was later discovered by Zaalbar, who re-attached it to the hilt. (KOTOR)

Great Canyon
this long gash in the crust of the planet Dathomir was located just north of the Frenzied River. It was here, hidden within the forests, that Brakiss set up a camp while searching for experienced Dark Side users to support his Shadow Academy. (SA, GORW)

Great Canyon Clan
this new clan of students of the Dark Side returned to the planet Dathomir to "recruit" Light Side witches for the Shadow Academy. They were supported and guarded by a squadron of Imperial troops. (SA)

Great Celebration of Life
this Kitonak ceremony was held whenever the rains saturated the surface of the planet Kirdo III. At this time, young Kitonaks became adults and either joined their own tribe or headed off into the desert to find a new tribe. During the Galactic Civil War, slavers often raided these celebrations, taking young Kitonaks to sell as laborers or jizz wailers. During the Celebration, young Kitonaks jump into the nearest river and perform the Dance of Love, with some emerging from the waters as impregnated females. (GMS, EGA)

Great Chott
located in the deep desert of Tatooine, the Great Chott was a vast salt flat which had very little change in elevation. The salt flats were located at the southern tip of ther Jundland Wastes. Nothing lived in the Great Chott without adequate protection, because any living thing caught on the Chott during the day was sure to lose its water in a short time. A small settlement was established on the flat's northern boundary, near to Anchorhead and Tosche Station. (TG, IWST)

Great Cleansing, The
the name given to the planetary war that raged between the various factions of Fyodoi. The groups of Fyodoi had become technological rivals, but the technology gave way to war. The Great Cleansing resulted in the devastation of most of the surface of the planet Fyodos, and many Fyodoi were killed. The cities and populations of Kaled and Othlos were completely wiped out, and Tharak suffered 90% casualties and severe damaged. The survivors of the Great Cleansing chose to shun cities and the technology they represented, and reverted to a primitive existence. (PG2)

Great Clone War
see Clone Wars (SWI81)

Great Conquest, The
this era of history on the planet Garban was marked by the intense efforts of Jenet, such as Chirr't Ferr and Rhet H'rrr, to wipe out the marauding danchaf which controlled the planet. (COG)

Great Council
this was the primary legislative and governmental body of The Expanse region of Tapani Sector. It was led by a Prime Minister, and was made up of representatives from the seven Houses of the sector. Each House had a certain amount representation, depending on its size and current status. During the New Order, House Mecetti was the dominant House in the Great Council. The Great Council was made up of several, smaller subcouncils, with the Senate being the strongest body. The Council of Ten was the most select of the subcouncils, being made up of an inner circle of representatives and handling several key roles. Each of the five primary planets in the Freeworlds Region also had representation on the Great Council, but they lacked the power of even the lowliest of the seven major Houses. (PGT)

Great Council
this was the name of the body of political and military leaders of the Yuuzhan Vong. The Supreme Overlord presided over the Great Council, which guided the actions of the alien invaders. (DW)

a Jedi Assembly of all the current Jedi Masters on Deneba, where they met to discuss and plan against the growing wave of Dark Side Energy which was led by Exar Kun and prevalent about 4000 PE. (COTF, IJ)

Great Creator
in Tuhgri mythology, the Great Creator is the being which provides the Tuhgri with everything they need to survive. The belief in the Great Creator has led the Tuhgri to establish a society in which no individual being owns anything. (KO)

Great Cueva Expanse
located in the northern hemisphere of the planet Sriluur, this crater-pocked landscape was home to the Cueva Desert. (SSR, GORW)

Great Dalvechan Deserts
this group of arid wastes was located on the planet Ket, and was the homeland of the Ketton race. (AE)

Great Dance, The
a term used by the dancers of the galaxy, The Great Dance meant the afterlife. (TJP)

Great Dance, The
within the religious sect known as the Undying Flame, Yuuzhan Vong individuals worshipped the sibling deities Yun-Q'aah and Yun-Txiin, who represented love and hate and all things opposite in the universe. However, the two deites were equal and opposite parts of a whole, and it was this whole that was represented by The Balance. The continual attempt of the universe to achieve The Balance was known as the Great Dance. (SBS)

Great Darkness
according to Kerestian legend, the Great Darkness was the place where a being's soul was sent, when the body died. There was no escape from the Great Darkness. (NEGW)

Great Databank of Aargau
this facility housed an immense computer system, which contained a wealth of databases that contained all the information ever processed on the planet Aargau. Like most other such installations on the planet, the Great Databank was controlled by the Bank of Aargau. (PH)

Great Desert of Dathomir
this is the largest area of desert land found on the planet Dathomir. It is the homeland of the Blue Desert People,and measures about 80 kilometers across. (CTD)

Great Doctrine, The
this Yuuzhan Vong belief was developed to explain their superiority in their own galaxy. It allowed them to develop plans to invade the known galaxy, providing both the justification and motivation for the invasion. (VP)

Great Dome of the Je'Har, The
this huge Almanian observatory was built by the Je'Har race. It was destroyed when Dolph - under the pseudonym Kuellar - exterminated the Je'Har. Dolph took control of the building's remains and used them as his command center. (TNR)

Great Door, The
this was the name given to the immense portal which served as the primary entrance to the Senate Rotunda on Coruscant, during the last centuries of the Old Republic. The Great Door was a work of art, formed from thick durasteel and decorated with the Great Seal and the seals of the Thousand Worlds. (T)

Great Dordon Caves
located along the northern border of the city of Eusebus, on the planet Euceron, this collection of twisting caves and tunnels was used as a podracing venue during the years following the Battle of Naboo. The courses which wound through the caves were especially dangerous, because the turns were extremely tight. (JQ3)

Great Downrush
this vast river flowed out of the Korunnal Highland, formed by the waters of melted snow and runoff from rivers such as Grandmother's Tears. It was the largest river found on the planet Haruun Kal, fed by tributaries from across the Highland and ending with the waterfall known as the Downrush Falls. (SHPT)

Great Droid Revolution
an uprising of droids on Coruscant which occurred about 5,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, in which the Jedi Master Arca Jeth learned the technique of short-circuiting a droid by using the Force. Note that The New Essential Guide to Weapons and Technology indicates that the Great Droid Revolution occurred 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. After the rogue war droid HK-01 was finally captured, the Republic spent many years recovering from the attacks. Droid designers and manufacturers then turned to weapons developers to work on ion weapons that would shot-circuit a droid's electronic systems. (DLS, NEGW)

Great Edge, The
this was another mystical reference used by Lando Calrissian. (LCF)

Great Egg, The
see Cosmic Egg, The (MJH)

Great Flood
this was the name given by the Kaminoan people to the moment in their history when the planet Kamino experienced a sudden rise in planetary temperature. When the polar ice caps and glaciers melted, the planet was completely flooded with water, causing all landmasses to be submerged under the planet-encircling ocean. A global period of warming followed an intense ice age, causing massive inland glaciers to melt and thereby flooding the planet. (VD2, SWDB, SWI66)

Great Force Pike
this was a devastatingly-dangerous version of the standard force pike. (SWI62)
