Mio, Marmio
this woman lived as a hermit on the remote world of Geonosis, during the early years of the New Order. She claimed to have been stranded on Geonosis after her starship crashed in the E'Y-Akh Desert, and her manic appearance seemed to support this story. In reality, she was an accomplished spy who secretly worked for several competing tribes of Geonosians, each of which believed she worked exclusively for them. Hidden in the hulk of her starship were a speederbike and several probe droids, which she used to gather all sorts of information about the events on the planet. (GORW)

Mira
this woman was a bounty hunter and scout who was active during the years following the Great Sith War, nearly 4,000 years before the Battle of Endor. She was unusual for her kind in that she never killed another being to collect a bounty, and only used lethal force in self-defense. Even then, she killed reluctantly, and this collection of attributed allowed her to remain clear of organizations such as the Exchange. As a young girl, Mira was orphaned during the Mandalorian Wars when her parents were killed during the Battle of Malachor. She was enslaved by the surviving Mandalorians and ended up on Nar Shaddaa, where she as forced to survive on her own. With her knack for finding people, Mira quickly became a bounty hunter. She was known to hunt with a specialized wrist launcher, that could fire small darts or ion rockets. During one fateful mission, she managed to save the life of Hanharr, forcing him to acknowledge a life-debt to her. Hanharr never forgot this, and spent many years trying to track her down and have her killed, so that the debt would no longer be hanging over his head. After the Jedi Civil War, Mira was among the bounty hunters who traveled to Nar Shaddaa to work for Goto, hunting down the surviving Jedi Knights and bringing them to Nar Shaddaa. On Nar Shaddaa, she joined the party of beings who traveled with The Exile. When they tried to locate Visquis in the Jekk'Jekk Tarr bar, Mira was forced to confront Hanharr in one-on-one combat. Using all her skills, Mira was able to defeat the huge Wookiee, although she regretted having to take his life. She voiced these regrets to The Exile, who recognized that she had a connection to the Force, and agreed to take her on as a student. (OWS, KOTOR2)

Mira
this barren ball of rock was the sixth world in the Kamino System. (GORW)

Mira
this female humanoid was one of the many Jedi Knights who felt that the Jedi Order was becoming too militaristic during the early years of the Clone Wars. She was originally trained by Master Sora Bulq, and remained loyal to the Weequay during the escalation of conflicts. After openly refusing to accept the rank of General, she left the Order to follow Sora Bulq to Ruul in protest of the Jedi's participation in the war. A tall, pale-skinned woman, Mira was distinguished by the patterns of spots which surrounded her eyes. When Master Bulq was attacked by Asajj Ventress, it was Mira who felt the disturbance in the Force and came to help him. Unfortunately, Mira was no match for Ventress' skills with a lightsaber, and was quickly killed in battle. Ventress claimed that she had been sent to Ruul by Mace Windu himself, in an effort to drive Master Bulq farther from the Jedi. (OWS, J1)

(WSV)

Miraluka
a race native to the planet Alpheridies, they are born without eyes. However, through the use of the Force, they can see as well as any sighted race. Outwardly, the average Miraluka individual appeared to be a normal Human, with a decorative veil covering their face. They original Miraluka migrated to Alpherides several millennia before the Great Sith War, fleeing a planet which was geologically and tectonically unstable. Their innate abilities with the Force were brought to the forefront as genetic mutations brought on by Abron's infrared radiation eliminated their eyes. Very few Miraluka ever left the Alpherides, choosing not to disrupt their equilibrium. When Emperor Palpatine instituted his Jedi Purge, many Miraluka were killed or forced into hiding, and they remained aloof from the rest of the galaxy for many decades afterward. Note that the LucasArts website for Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords indicates that the Miraluka died out some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. (FNU, TOJC, PJSB, UANT, LAWS)

He lacked any form of tact or friendliness, and often used derogatory names to describe other races and beliefs. He got into a shouting match with Kaguya after he called her a bark-loving freak, and his continued ranting eventually earned him the ire of the people of Cularin. However, Mirt was later forced to agree with Kaguya's idea of dismantling the floating cities and encouraging the development of multi-story buildings in the ground-based locations. (LFCW)

She operated the largest and most popular saloon in The Landing, which was located in the area known as Center Sphere. Any number of rumors about her origins have been debated in The Ring for many years, although it was known that she wasn't a native of Lamaredd. She arrived sometime before the Clone Wars, and had been a fixture in Center Sphere ever since. Although outwardly her relationship with Mix Liddell was strictly professional - mainly to ensure that her operations were legal - Miss Mylla was known to have said that Liddell was the only male who could get her to settle down and leave the Saloon.

When Count Dooku took control of Chateau Malreaux, he allowed Whirry to remain in the home, but was uncomfortable with the presence of Miss Vix. Thus, when Dooku learned that his former Master Yoda was on Vjun, he needed Whirry to do his bidding. He grabbed Miss Vix and began pulling out tufts of her fur, forcing Whirry to agree to his terms in order to free the fox from further torture. In exchange for Miss Vix's freedom, Whirry was forced to order Fidelis to arrange for Whie to meet with Asajj Ventress, thereby holding the Padawan hostage while Dooku met with Yoda.

The ship could achieve sublight speeds of 125 MGLT, and was protected by 120 SBD shields and a 20-RU hull. Many Imperial pilots denounced the new ship, saying that it was not very maneuverable in a dogfight, although it was deadly from long-range. (TIE)

this starship design was produced by the Trade Federation as a mobile projectile weapons platform. (JSF)

Missile Tube
any land-based weapon which carries and fires short- and long-range proton or concussion missiles. (HSR)

Mission Commander
this was the title given to the ruling member of the Survivor group on Dellalt. The primary duty of the Mission Commander was to maintain the beacon that sent word of their existence to the High Command, in the hopes that one day the High Command would hear it and return to Dellalt to open the vaults of Xim the despot. Over time, the Survivors began to wonder if the beacon was reaching far enough into space, and the Mission Commander began making blood sacrifices to help augment the beacon's strength. (HSL)

Mission Vao
this young Twi'lek female grew up on the streets of the Lower City on Taris, some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. Mission spent her early years with her brother, Griff, until he disappeared into the underworld. Mission blamed his girlfriend, Lena, but was unaware of the truth behind her brother's troubles. She made many enemies during her struggles to survive, especially among the Black Vulkars, but a chance meeting with Zaalbar the Wookiee earned her a fast friend and protector. She was known as a quick thinker, a characteristic which helped her escape a number of tight situations during her life. She accompanied Zaalbar wherever he went on Taris, and was usually given the task of scrounging for food, a role she performed quite successfully over the years. When Zaalbar was captured by a group of Gamorrean thugs, Mission found herself turning to a group of Old Republic heroes to rescue him. Among her newfound friends were Bastila Shan and Carth Onasi, and the group quickly became good friends after Zaalbar's escape. Mission and Zaalbar played key roles in the search for Darth Malak, helping to repay the debt for Zaalbar's release. Mission Vao was voiced by Cat Taber for the video game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. (KOTOR, SWDB)

Mission, The
this was the term used by the new Jedi order to describe the events surrounding the mission to destroy the Yuuzhan Vong voxyn production facility at Myrkr, more than twenty-five years after the Battle of Yavin. The Jedi who undertook the mission were still training under Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, and included Jaina, Jacen, and Anakin Solo, along with Tesar Sebatyne, Lowbacca, Zekk, Tahiri Veila, and Raynar Thul. Although the mission ultimately succeeded in destroying the voxyn queen, the Jedi paid a heavy price for it. Anakin Solo sacrificed his own life to save his brother, and many other Jedi were killed in battle. Raynar Thul was believed to have died when the Dark Jedi Welk and Lomi Plo stole the Tachyon Flier and tried to escape, only to have the ship nearly destroyed by the Yuuzhan Vong. The survivors of the Mission were also changed by it, since they had chosen to use the battle-meld technique to help themselves survive. The prolonged connection of the meld altered their brains and limbic systems, creating an unusual sort of telepathy between them. It was this link that allowed Raynar to call on his friends for help, after the defeat of the Yuuzhan Vong, when the Colony began to encroach on the borders of Chiss space. (DN1)

Missira
this elderly Tarasin female was one of the first of her race to attend the Almas Academy. She was chosen by her irstat to attend the Academy as a representative of her species, after a great deal of debate over whether or not a Tarasin would be able to live outside its tribe. Missira succeeded at her training, and eventually became a Jedi Knight. She also became the Mother of the small population of Tarasin which were attending the Academy during the last decades of the Old Republic. Missira was also in charge of the kitchens at the Academy. (LFC)

Mist
this bounty hunter was known as a violent, capable individual, although he very rarely appeared in public. Mist began working in Kathol Sector shortly before the Battle of Endor, but was driven underground by the appearance of Moff Sarne. When Sarne fled the New Republic's warships, Mist began showing up again, although his operations were somewhat questionable. Mist is best known for the heavily-modified suit of Krail 1010 photo-reactive armor he wore. He was hoping to find Sarne and capture him, with the intent of extorting what he felt was just compensation for having been left hanging when Sarne fled. Shortly afterward, Mist encountered an alien construct deep within the Kathol Rift, and soon discovered a piece of the DarkStryder technology. He learned how to control a DarkStryder fire creature, and attempted to defeat the crew of the FarStar with this newfound power. He was defeated aboard the alien construct, and forced to flee before the firepower of the FarStar. During the Battle of Kathol, Mist was discovered to be the actress, Shella Inion, who had believed that the Alliance was responsible for the deaths of her family. When Jessa Dajus revealed that it was Moff Sarne himself who had killed her family, Mist switched allegiances and joined the New Republic in defeating Sarne. (KO, KR, E)

a Duchess from Dargul. When she came of marrying age, she began a widespread search for the perfect mate. All candidates had their credentials entered into a computer, and she would marry the one the computer chose. Dack Tymmo sabotaged the results of all the candidates in order to make himself into the "perfect mate," and they were married. Unfortunately for Dack, Mistal is a very affectionate person, and she couldn't bear to be away from him. She did not give him any free time, and so Dack fled to Umgul in an effort to escape her. Mistal offered a million-credit reward for Dack's return, which Lando was able to obtain when he apprehended Tymmo at a blob race. Mistal was grateful to Lando from that point on. (JS)

Mister Mxil
this Mon Calamari arrived on Port Haven shortly after Hallomar, and established the Haven's Water cantina. Mxil had once served as a chief steward aboard the Kuari Princess, but was fired from his job after speaking out against the Empire. With an Imperial bounty on his head, Mxil fled and ended up on Port Haven.

Mistflier, Dusque
the youngest member of a large family based on the planet Talus, this woman worked for the Empire as a biologist during the height of the New Order. When her father died in the factory he was working in, her four brothers tried to keep the family together. Her mother seemed to have died inside, although she kept on living. When her youngest brother enlisted in the Imperial armed forced but died during a training exercise, Dusque's mother began to rail against the Empire, claiming that it had killed her family. She then returned to the shell she had become, leaving Dusque and her surviving brothers to fend for themselves. Despite graduating with high marks and continually scoring higher than her superiors, Dusque always managed to miss out on promotions or better jobs. She knew that this was due to her sex, and so she dressed and acted as unfeminine as possible. However, this didn't deter her from doing the best job possible. Her love of her work was enhanced by the presence of her partner, Tendau Nandon. During a routine mission to a galaxy-wide conference on Naboo, Dusque met Finn Darktrin, who began to question her allegiance to the Empire. While Dusque didn’t openly say it, she had begun to wonder why the Empire treated non-humans so unfairly. Her dedication to the Empire was shattered when Tendau was arrested and executed on the suspicion of being an Alliance sympathizer. She agreed to accompany Finn and set out to join the Alliance. The two were paired on a dangerous mission to Dantooine, where the abandoned Alliance base still stood. Despite having been razed during the Imperial investigation just before the Battle of Yavin, Princess Leia Organa still believed that a holocron containing the names and locations of hundreds of Alliance agents was still on Dantooine. Dusque and Finn set out from Corellia to find it, racing the Empire's agents and the planet's ecosystem to find it. Dusque discovered it hidden in the ashen remains of a campfire, inexplicably located hundreds fo feet belowground, at the site of an ancient Jedi training compound. Her elation at finding the holocron was matched by her growing affection for Finn, although he seemed alternately aloof and eager to return the feeling. It was on their return to the Alliance headquarters that Dusque discovered that Finn himself was an Imperial agent. He managed to send off a small portion of the holocron's contents before Dusque grabbed the object and ejected it into space. Finn had no desire to return to the Alliance, and didn't need Dusque blowing his cover, so he stabbed her in the chest with a knife. As their ship was about to be boarded, Finn blasted away in an escape pod. Dusque found herself being rescued by Luke Skywalker, but had to explain what happened to Finn. However, she believed him dead when no Imperial forces attacked their base on Corellia. (ROD)

Mistmaker
this strange creature is native to the planet Msst. The mistmaker is a large, pink, gelatinous cloud which floast through the jungles, cathing unsuspecting prey in the tentacles which hang from its body. The tentacles are lined with stinging poisons which incapacitate the mistmaker's prey. Once the prey has been immobilized, the mistmaker uses its tentacles to draw the prey into its toothy maw.

Mistress Mnemos
this huge computer system was rumored to have been maintained by the Alliance as an intergalactic database. C-3PO was able to interface with Mnemos to gather information on Blackhole. Located on one of the most secret safeworlds the Alliance maintained, Mnemos had a feminine personality and was given a good deal of programming on etiquette and protocol. She required that any being making inquiries of her memory bank follow set procedures, and omit any irrelevant or unnecessary details. While the knowledge contained within Mnemos's memory banks was generally believed to be extensive, it was only as good as the data that it was given. Much of the information on Luke Skywalker's family history, for example, was misleading or simply wrong. (CSWEA, LAT1, GMR4)

this mysterious sisterhood formed the basic unit of society on the planet Emberlene. The Mistryl Shadow Guards were personally commissioned by the Eleven Elders of the People to protect and defend not only Emberlene but other down-trodded peoples as well. Any pay the Mistryls acquired was returned to Emberlene, in order for the native population to purchase the necessities of life. During the height of the Clone Wars, the government of Emberlene allied itself with the Separatists, which allowed them to obtain the military resources to expand their sphere of control. The Mistryl grew larger and more powerful with every subjugation, until the Clone Wars suddenly came to an end. Without Separatist backing, the Mistryl Shadow Guards were unable to continue their subjugation of the neighbors, and could no longer defend the worlds they had conquered. The planets that had been subjugated by the Mistryl joined together, combining their meager resources to form a huge army of soliders and mercenaries that staged a massive rebellion against Emberlene and the Mistryl. The rebellion was exceptionally devastating, as it nearly wiped out all life on Emberlene. The few natives who survived chose to rewrite history, blaming the Empire for the destruction of their homeworld. This new history also provided a new reason for the existence of the Mistryl, claiming that the Mistryl had been created to exact torturous and devastating acts of revenge against the Empire. Despite this, many independent Mistryl sometimes worked for the Empire in order to obtain funds, although they never aligned themselves with Palpatine's forces. At their heart, the Mistryl Shadow Guards worked at every opportunity to exact some form of revenge on the Empire for its part in Emberlene's destruction, although most never knew that the Empire had nothing to do with the devastation of the planet.
