Kumauri Battleship
this ancient ship was designed and manfuactured by Vall Kumauri, and served as the flagship of his personal fleet. Its design was considered highly-advanced for its age - some 10,000 years before the Battle of Yavin - and was best-known for the huge mass drive weapon slung over its main hull. It was also armed with several tractor beams, which were used to capture asteroids for use as projectile weapons. Once collected, the asteroids were shot out of the mass drive weapon's bore at a target. These natural weapons were capable of leveling entire cities, and made the Kumauri Battleship a terror to confront. Many of its design aspects, including the mass drive weapon, were later incorporated into the Cal-class warship. (CRO)

Kumauri, Vall
some 10,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, this upstart young warlord seized control of several remote star systems in an effort to establish his own little empire outside the control of the Old Republic. He had a great deal of knowledge about starships, and was instrumental in the design and manufacture of the Kumauri Battleship, named for himself. His shiny star collapsed and imploded after only a few years, but the designs of the Kumauri Battleship was maintained and modified by Kumauri starshipwrights. (CRO)

Kum'Jushkin
this Tarasin was the only surviving member of an exploration team which discovered Cave City, on the moon of Rennokk. All the other members of the team were killed by a great lava worm, and Kum'Jushkin himself claimed that the worm attacked his starship as he lifted off to flee. He spent the rest of his life in a drunken stupor, ranting about the remnants of an ancient civlization on Rennokk and the lava worm that protected it. (LFC)

Kumru
this planet was located in the Javin Sector of the galaxy, along the Corellian Trade Spine between Aztubek and High Chunah. (WOA33)

Kumus
this man was one of the many Mandalorians who were stranded on the moon Dxun, in the wake of the Great Sith War. (KOTOR2)

Kun, Exar
a Jedi student of Vodo-Siosk Baas on Dantooine, Exar Kun used Vodo's holocron to learn about the ancient Sith. Exar Kun didn't like the fact that Vodo, not to mention his fellow students Crado and Sylvar, were not human, and he continually goaded them. He nearly killed Sylvar during a lightsaber training exercise, and she clawed him on the right cheek. Vodo stopped the duel before someone was killed, and challenged Kun to a duel between Kun's skill with a lightsaber and Vodo's skill with a walking stick. Vodo nearly defeated Kun, but Kun snatched another lightsaber and attacked his Master. Vodo's stick was broken, and Kun's rage passed as he felt he was victorious. Exar Kun then left Dantooine to try and obtain the Sith artifacts that had been found on Onderon. He entered the tomb of Freedon Nadd and was controlled by Nadd's evil spirit. Nadd led Kun to Korriban, where Kun discovered a pair of Sith scrolls that tantalizingly led him further down the path to the Dark Side. Kun tried to resist, but Nadd nearly killed him before offering assistance. However, the assistance required Kun to give himself to the Dark Side. Kun chose to live, and was drawn into the Dark Side's power. Then, Nadd directed Kun to go to Yavin 4, where he should complete the work of Naga Sadow. On Yavin 4, Kun again tried to renounce Nadd's teachings, and was captured by the Massassi. They tried to sacrifice Kun in a blood ceremony, during which Nadd's spirit goaded him down the Dark path. Exar Kun called out to the Dark Side in anger, and a Sith amulet was drawn to his power. It fused to his arm, and he was suddenly endowed with the power of the Sith. He took control of the Massassi, and exterminated Nadd's spirit. As the months went by, Exar Kun found Naga Sadow's works and began to gain more and more Sith power. Once he felt that he was powerful enough, he went to the Empress Teta System to defeat Aleema and Satal Keto and claim his position as Sith lord. When he arrived, Keto had already been killed by Ulic Qel-Droma, so Kun tried to defeat him in battle. The ancient Sith masters were drawn to the pair's incredible Dark Side power, and halted the battle. They named Kun the Dark Lord of the Sith, and Qel-Droma his Apprentice. They went into hiding, and continued to gain power. Kun was able to lure several young Jedi Knights to his cause, including Oss Willum and Crado. On Yavin 4, Kun showed them the Sith holocron, which he destroyed in a display of power. The shards exploded outward, piercing the young Jedi and possessing them with Sith demons. When the time was right, they exploded into the galaxy as Sith warriors. Kun ordered his young disciples to exterminate their Jedi Masters in a fiendish pogrom. Thus, the Great Sith War was started. Kun and Qel-Droma's forces killed millions in their rampages. When Qel-Droma was captured and put to trial on Coruscant, Kun and Mandalore arrived to retrieve him. In a show of power, Kun put the entire court into suspended animation, killing the Old Republic's highest official and eventually murdering Master Vodo. Kun later raided Ossus, in an attempt to steal the ancient Jedi and Sith lore stored there. This effort was cut short when Aleema destroyed the Cron System, and Kun was forced to flee back to Yavin 4 to regain his strength. The war would have continued, but the end of the war was quickened when Qel-Droma was captured on Ossus by Master Thon. He was cut off from the Force by Nomi Sunrider, and betrayed Kun by providing the location of Kun's power - the so-called Dark Temple on Yavin 4 - to the Jedi. The Jedi then met Exar Kun on the jungle moon, where Kun drew on the Massassi spirits in an effort to gain strength and make a last stand against the Jedi. Exar Kun was defeated by the Jedi, but only his body was destroyed. Kun consumed the Massassi in an effort to lock his spirit away in the Dark Temple on Yavin 4, where it remained until Luke Skywalker started training his new Jedi Knights there more than 4000 years later. Kun tried to control the emerging Jedi Knights, but his hold was tenuous. His first attempt at controlling one of them led to the death of Gantoris. Kyp Durron was his second attempt, but Kyp used Kun's power in an attempt to destroy the Empire. In a final battle with Luke's Jedi students, Kun was defeated by the combined strength of all the students. At his final death, Kun's former teacher Vodo Siosk-Baas appeared to claim him. Several months later, after escaping from Leonia Tavira and the Jensaarai, Luke Skywalker allowed Corran Horn to destroy Kun's statue and temple with a series of proton torpedoes, utterly wiping out the primary source of dark side energy on the moon. (DA, DLS, TSW, COTF, IJ, GORW)

Kuna
the Ayrou race created this constellation, based on the placement of several Moddell Sector stars in the nighttime skies of Maya Kovel. There were eight distinct stars in the constellation, which were related only because of their apparent positions relative to May Kovel. The stars were named for the various parts of Kuna's body: Kuna's Eye, Kuna's Fist, Kuna's Horn, Kuna's Tail, and Kuna's Tooth were actually located in the Moddell Sector; Kuna's Gullet, Kuna's Heart, and Kuna's Scale were located in neighboring sectors and Wild Space. (GMR9)

Kuna's Eye
this blue giant star was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. This star was part of the vast constellation identified by the Ayrou as Kuna, although the only thing it had in common with the other stars in the constellation was their proximity to one another. Kuna's Eye was a realtively young star, and its surrounding space was filled with gases and debris, rather than planets and moons. However, the debris was exceptionally rich in ores and metals, which prompted the construction of the space station known as The Mote. (GMR9)

Kuna's Eye
this was another name for the space station known as The Mote, which was cobbled together on the fringes of the system surrounding the star known as Kuna's Eye. (GMR9)

Kuna's Fist
this planet orbited a star by the same name, and was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. (GMR9)

Kuna's Fist
this red giant star was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. This star was part of the vast constellation identified by the Ayrou as Kuna, although the only thing it had in common with the other stars in the constellation was their proximity to one another. Legend claimed that the Ayrou hid a number of treasure troves in and among the the stars of the Kuna constellation, and many explorers believed that they were located near either Kuna's Fist or Kuna's Horn. No such troves have ever found, however. (GMR9)

Kuna's Gullet
this supergiant star was part of the vast constellation identified by the Ayrou as Kuna. Unlike many other stars in the constellation, Kuna's Gullet was not located in Moddell Sector, and was known by another name in its sector. It was only considered part of the Kuna constellation from the vantage point of Maya Kovel. (GMR9)

Kuna's Heart
this supergiant star was part of the vast constellation identified by the Ayrou as Kuna. Unlike many other stars in the constellation, Kuna's Heart was not located in Moddell Sector, and was known by another name in its sector. It was only considered part of the Kuna constellation from the vantage point of Maya Kovel. (GMR9)

Kuna's Horn
this red giant star was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. This star was part of the vast constellation identified by the Ayrou as Kuna, although the only thing it had in common with the other stars in the constellation was their proximity to one another. Legend claimed that the Ayrou hid a number of treasure troves in and among the the stars of the Kuna constellation, and many explorers believed that they were located near either Kuna's Fist or Kuna's Horn. No such troves have ever found, however. (GMR9)

Kuna's Horn
this planet orbited a star by the same name, and was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. (GMR9)

Kuna's Scale
this supergiant star was part of the vast constellation identified by the Ayrou as Kuna. Unlike many other stars in the constellation, Kuna's Scale was not located in Moddell Sector, and was known by another name in its sector. It was only considered part of the Kuna constellation from the vantage point of Maya Kovel. (GMR9)

Kuna's Tail
this star was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. This star was part of the vast constellation identified by the Ayrou as Kuna, although the only thing it had in common with the other stars in the constellation was their proximity to one another. (GMR9)

Kuna's Tail III
this was another name for the planet Sarafur. (GMR9)

Kuna's Tooth
this planet orbited a star by the same name, and was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. It was originally known as a mining world during the Imperial occupation of the sector. During the early years of the New Republic, Kuna's Tooth was known as one of the primary sources of Rokna Blue. Raw rokna from the Forest Moon of Endor was transported to Kuna's Tooth and the Doestes High Port, where it was processed into small, blue, pebble-shaped nuggets, which were then shipped to Annaj for sale to the rest of the galaxy. (GMR9)

Kuna's Tooth
this star was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy. This star was part of the vast constellation identified by the Ayrou as Kuna, although the only thing it had in common with the other stars in the constellation was their proximity to one another. (GMR9)

Kund Ekorr
this was the name of an infamous Neimoidian. (UANT)

Kunda Stone
this unusual form of crystalline mineral was found on the planet Kadril. It was collected and used in a variety of communications, power, and medical technologies. The ancient Jedi Knights sometimes used kunda stones as the material for the emitter lenses in their lightsabers. One of its unique properties was its ability to absorb and filter out the gas known as pacifog. For this reason, Darth Vader ordered huge quantities of kunda stones from Dal Quirz, for use in manufacturing filter masks for troops which would deploy pacifog. It was then that Lon Prador revealed that Kadril itself was made up of natural kunda stone (LAT3, KOTOR2)

Kundee
this Huttese word translated roughly into Basic as "challenge." (E1A14)

Kundril
this segmented, flying insect was one of the few indigenous creatures which survived the reformation of the planet Brentaal. Many species died out when colonists brought new plants and animals tot he planet, in the hopes of making it more hospitable. The kundril, with its long, flat body and menacing mandibles, survived by taking to the seas, flying across the water to locate remote islands where the colonists did not reach. Several seagoing subspecies evolved over time, while the land-based species virtually died out. Kundrils usually hunted in swarms, using their mandibles to slice and bludgeon their prey. They remained airborne for long periods of time, thanks to their four wings and gas-filled body sections. Most kundrils were blue or green in color, although the Imperial kundril was easily distinguished by its red and gold coloration. (CCW)

Kunra
this was one of the small group of Shamed Ones who lived with Vuurok I'pan beneath the surface of Coruscant, after the planet had been transformed into a likeness of Yuuzhan'tar. Like the rest of their cadre, Kunra believed that the Jedi Knights were not abominations, but saviors of the Shamed Ones and symbols of the new ideology which should be embraced by the Yuuzhan Vong. For this reason, their band remained small, in case they were captured by the Yuuzhan Vong warriors. This ensured that their small cult of Jedi followers would never be fully discovered. He was a former warrior, and was more than confused when I'pan returned one day with Nom Anor at his side. Like Niiriit Esh, Kunra had heard of Nom Anor's duplicitous ways, and did not trust the former Executor to remain loyal to their band. Kunra argued against telling Nom Anor of the legend of Vua Rapuung, but was outvoted. This did nothing to ease his suspicion, however. Nom Anor also woke an angry sentiment from Kunra when Niiriit Esh began spending more time with the outsider, rather than with Kunra. When their small band was discovered by Yuuzhan Vong warriors, Kunra fled in terror, fearing for his own life. He located Nom Anor, who blamed Kunra's shaming on his deep-seated cowardice. Kunra did nothing to change Nom Anor's mind, and reluctantly agreed to accompany Shoon-mi and the former Executor on a mission of survival. Nom Anor, having adopted the name Yu'shaa, began to spread The Message to the rest of the Shamed Ones on Coruscant. As the only being who knew of the Prophet's true identity, Kunra held some measure of power over Nom Anor, but remained subordinate. When Shoon-Mi attempted to assassinate the Prophet, Kunra intervened and saved him from death, gaining another measure of control over the former Executor. When Nom Anor returned from his mission to locate Zonama Sekot, bringing warnings of Shimrra's plans to eradicate the Shamed Ones, Kunra refused to let him renege on his promise to lead the Shamed Ones to power. As Nom Anor wore the guise of Yu'shaa and pleaded with the masses to avoid the Supreme Overlord, Kunra simply twisted the words into fanatical demands for more pressure on the Yuuzhan Vong elite. (FH1, FH2, FH3, FP, UF)

Kupala
this shuttle was used by the Alliance to transport flight staff to the Liberty, shortly before the Battle of Endor. (XWA)

Kur
this Twi'lek politician was a Senator for the New Republic who was exiled from Ryloth by the Diversity Alliance. Following the death of Nolaa Tarkona and the break-up of the Alliance, Kur was named Ryloth's leader. (TEP)

Kur
this airless, rocky planet was the second world in the Bakura System. (TBSB)

Kur
this forested planet was infamous for the poisonous, thorny vines that grow among the trees. (AIR)

Kura
this was a common name among Cerean females. Unlike their male counterparts, Cerean females use a single name unless they became a bond-wife. In this case, a female will take on their husband's grandfather's name for official matters. The name Kura referred to a gift, reward, or prize. (GCG)

Kurakk
this lkarge Trandoshan smuggler served as the leader of the Jon-Tow Economic Development Group on Pinett, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. As a young male, Kurakk was known for his wanton brutality. Over the years, he mellowed just a bit, and was known to most beings on Pinett as simply brutally honest. (WOA25)

Kuras
this white dwarf star, located in the Elrood Sector of the galaxy, was the primary body in the Kuras System. It was given the name Kuras by the ancient Coynites, who placed it in the constellation Kezz'Sreik'Kuras. (PG3)

Kuras Asteroid Belt
this field of planetary debris orbited the star Kuras between the planets Kuras III and Kuras IV. Like most asteroid fields, it made travel through the Kuras System difficult. It was believed that the first probe sent by the Old Republic to the system was destroyed in the field, keeping the system out of most star charts and hidden from general view. (PG3)

Kuras I
the first planet in the Kuras System, Kuras I was a hot, rocky wasteland that exists in "the Drift." (PG3)

Kuras II
this dry, desert world was the second planet in the Kuras System. It was orbited by a pair of moons. (PG3)

Kuras III
this planet was located on the edge of the Elrood Sector, in the Kuras System. It was a dry, volcanic world which was lethal for humans and most other races. An abundance of heavy metals, harmful bacteria, and airborne poisons made it virtually impossible for most humanoid races to survive without some form of breathing apparatus. It existed in "the Drift," the system-wide dust cloud that made travel through the system difficult at best. Despite the lethal environment, Kuras III supported two native life forms: the Aganof and the Pulra. Its day lasted an average of 18 standard hours, and its year encompassed 400 local days. Because of its location, it has not been fully explored. (PG3, AE)

Kuras IV
this planet was the fourth world in the Kuras System. It was a frigid, rocky wasteland. (PG3)

Kuratcha
this was the main Hiromi starship in the invasion fleet dispatched to capture the planet Zeltros, during the period immediately following the Battle of Endor. The Kuratcha was Hookyr the First's flagship at the time. (PH)

Kurdan Desert
the hot, white sands which cover the planet Kirdo III. Once every ten years or so, rain comes to the desert and allows dormant seeds to sprout and grow. This period is known as the Celebration of Life to the Kitonaks. (GG4)

Kurdavvian Sunrise
a breath-taking daybreak. (SWJ9)

Kuret
this small, bronze-colored insect is native to the planet Kubindi. Alone, these one-centimeter insects are not much problem, despite their sharp pincers. In a swarm, they exhibit a sort of hive mentality, communicating via pheromones and attacking they prey with swift, deadly abandon. They are prized among Kubaz gourmets, although they have never been tamed. This makes them very expensive. (SWJ10)

Kur-hashan
this Yuuzhan Vong destroyer was one of the ships dispatched to destroy the New Republic communications base on Esfandia, after the Battle of Ebaq. It was under the command of B'shith Vorrik at the time, and would have had more than enough firepower to destroy the communications base had the Imperial Remnant's 78th Fleet followed it to Esfandia. There, the Kur-hashan was pitted against the Right to Rule, and Vorrik and Grand Admiral Pellaeon soon fought to a stalemate. When Tahiri Veila used the captured picket ship Collaborator to trick some of Vorrik's forces to the surface of Esfandia, she left the Kur-hashan undefended. When Vorrik realized that he had been tricked, he tried to bring the ship's weapons to bear on the Right to Rule. However, the old Star Destroyer was ready, and pounded the Kur-hashan with everything it could. Realizing he was beaten, Vorrik tried to turn the dying ship onto a collision course with the Imperials, but the Kur-hashan exploded well short of the point where it could have done any damage. (FH3)

Kurin, Peate
this man was one of the crewmen aboard the Rand Ecliptic who decided to join Biggs Darklighter in defecting from Imperial service and joining the Alliance. Shortly before the Battle of Yavin, their group managed to escape from the frigate, only to realize that they didn't have enough fuel to reach their destination. They hatched a plan to return to the Rand Ecliptic and steal more fuel, only to find that Derek "Hobbie" Klivian had also launched a mutiny and taken control of the ship. They joined forces, and brought the frigate to Yavin 4. Kurin was then chosen as one of the former TIE Fighter pilots who would travel to Incom Industries and help steal the X-Wing starfighter. The plan called for the TIE pilots to eject in space, allowing droids to fly the ships and draw off any defenders. Although the plan started off well, Klivian lost a foot in the ejection, and Kurin was decapitated. His body was recovered and given a proper burial when the group returned to Yavin 4. (SWED)

Kurjj
this hulking Drovian served as a security guard at Mos Espa's Arena Citadel, working for Jabba the Hutt during the last decades of the Old Republic. (BF4)

Kurkuoth
sometimes referred to as the bastard offspring of a mynock and a spider, the kurkuothj was a silicon-based form of insect that fed off the energy sources found in spaceports and landing bays. The body of a kurkuoth - called a "kwath" by those beings who have experienced them multiple times - was square in shape, with a segmented leg sprouting from each corner of the body. Clusters of eyes were located on the top and bottom of their though shells, while the mouth was located on its underside. This allowed the kurkuoth to keep watch while it fed. In general, kurkuoths were quite skittish, and would rather flee than fight. However, once a kurkuoth established a territory and a family, it would defend its food sources quite readily. Kurkuoths reproduce asexually, using cues from their environment to decide when to lay their eggs, and how many to lay at once. (WOTC)

Kurline
this name was commonly given to Quarren males, and represents a gemstone found in the deepest parts of Mon Calamari's oceans. (GCG)

Kurline
this gemstone was found in the deeper parts of the oceans that covered the planet Mon Calamari. (GCG)

Kurline
this Quarren was the leader of the Sailors' Union chapter in Bartyn's Landing, on the planet Lamaredd, during the years surrounding the Battle of Naboo. He wasn't above taking a bribe or two, but was known to his union members and fellow chapter leaders as a being who fought hard for the rights and privileges of his people. (GMR7)

Kurn
this was one of the most common human surnames encountered in the galaxy. (GCG)

Kurn, Vor'en
this mercenary-for-hire was distinguished by the modified Kubaz facemask he wore to hide his true identity. He later joined a group of freedom fighters led by the Wookiee Rorworr, and helped clean up after the Trade Federation's blockade of Naboo was broken. Vor'en was hit by a blast from a destroyer droid which was scheduled for decommission, but was rescued by Rorworr. (SWRPG)

Kurnbeast
a large creature native to the Forest Moon of Endor. (MTS)

Kuro, An'ya
this was the name given to the Jedi Master known as the Dark Woman, at her birth. She chose to rid herself of all worldy possessions, including her name, when she became a Jedi Knight. (J3)

Kursk Mal'ia
this Bothan served the New Republic as a Captain in the Navy, in the years following the Battle of Endor. Captain Mal'ia was placed in command of the Bothan Combat Response Element, and was partly responsible for the Republic's victory over the forces of Imperial Moff Kentor Sarne during the Battle of Kathol. Later, Mali'ia was promoted to Commodore, and served in the Tactical Analysis Bureau. Kursk reported to the New Republic Intelligence agency on the various new starship designs discovered during the struggle with Warlord Zsinj over Dathomir. Kursk placed primary focus on the Hapan designs and those of Zsinj's Raptors. Mal'ia later retired, but was an invaluable resource during the Human League crisis and the breakup of the Starbuster Plot. Note that this character's name is spelled Kursk Mal'lia in Pirates and Privateers. (CTD, PP, E)

Kursk Te'tell
this Bothan founded Bothan Debris, Incorporated, and worked on the planet Caamas during the early decades of the New Republic. Although outwardly the corporation worked to salvage materials and equipment on the planet, many felt that Te'tell's people were working to cover up any evidence of the Bothan involvement in the destruction of Caamas' ecosystem. In reality, Te'tell was an agent of the Bothan SpyNet who was dispatched to Caamas to ensure that no being discovered too much about the Bothan involvement in the planet's bombardment. Bothan Debris was simply a front to provide cover for his actions. (WOTC, CCW)

Kursma
this well-muscled Barabel was a star on the shockboxing circuit during the height of the New Order. What made this unusual, in addition to the fact that she wasn't human, was the fact that Kursma was a female. On the side, Kursma took one-time jobs for various crimelords who need a rival or traitor hurt indiscreetly. (GORW)

Kurso
a Selonian word meaning "good" or "well." (AS)

Kurtob
manufacturers of podracers and replacement parts. (IG1)

Kurtough
this was a specialized weapons manufacturer, active during the early years of the New Republic. (SWJ3)

Kurtuln
this Selonian den lived beneath the surface of the planet Talus, below the rocky spires of Kystes' Spine. (CCW)

Kurtuln Den
this was the name of the warren of caves and tunnels which were controlled by the Kurtuln clan of Selonians, on the planet Talus. The Den was located beneath Kystes' Spine. (CCW)

Kurtzen
a race native to the Kishh district of the Braad continent of Bakura, the Kurtzen had pale, white skin and ridges instead of hair on their heads. Although native to Bakura, by the time of the Battle of Endor, the Kurtzen population was just five percent of the entire population of the planet. Humanoid in stature, the Kurtzen were suffering from a number of diseases and malnutrition when human colonists first landed on Bakura. They gladly traded land for medical supplies and access to newer treatments, and the population steadied for many years. The appearance of the Empire actually helped the Kurtzen further, since new medicines and technologies arrived that could help them, although many were displaced to the Kishh'daar continent. After the Empire took control of the planet, a generation gap formed among the Kurtzen society, as the younger members began using more technology and began ignoring the traditions of their families, while the older Kurtzen struggled to maintain their heritage. Eventually, the Kurtzen people found a way to survive by simply believing in the power of life itself, and brought their race back from the brink of extinction. (TB, TBSB, RESB, FH2)

Kurual'grast Mountains
this chain of mountains was located near the city of Drev'starn, on the planet Bothawui. (SPG)

Kurun
this was a common name among the Temolak race. (UANT)

Ku'rys
this Twi'lek clan established the small city of Joreikna on their homeworld of Ryloth. Many other Twi'lek clans considered the Ku'rys clan to be lazy, and wondered how the clan survived on the minimal ryll they were able to extract from the ground. (GORW)

Kusak
this species of vicious, predatory canine was native to the planet Lok. Despite their fearsome nature, kusaks could be tamed by dedicated owners, and proved to be among the most loyal of all beasts. The Feeorin pirate Nym had a pet kusak during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (ROD)

Kush drojh?
this Ewok interrogative phrase translated into Basic as "What's going on?" (BTRKS26)

Kush jeeks?
this Ewok interrogative phrase translated into Basic as "What's that?" (BTRKS26)

Kushal Vogh
this city was considered the gambling capital of the planet Elerion. (T15)

Kushayan
this was one of the many luxury foodstuffs grown on the planet Qiilura, during the last decades of the Old Republic. Like barq, kushayan was primarily exported to Coruscant and the Core Worlds, where it commanded a huge price. This price meant that kushayan was unaffordable by the very farmers who grew it. During the years following the Battle of Naboo, much of the kushayan exported from Qiilura was controlled by the Trade Federation, which used its profits to fund the Confederacy of Independent Systems. (RCHC)

Kushibah
this temperate, Outer Rim world was the home of the Kushiban race. (AQ, PJSB)

Kushiban
this language was used by the Kushiban race. (PJSB)

Kushiban
this race of lagomorphs was native to the planet Kushibah. They can move about on all fours, or walk semi-upright on their hind legs. Measuring no more than a meter in length, the average Kushiban was often mistaken as a pet or as vermin, despite the fact that the Kushiban were an intelligent and complex race of beings who existed in harmony with their environment. On their homeworld, the Kushiban had no need for technology or tools, living as farmers and weavers and existing in peace with their surroundings. Kushiban tapestries were known throughout the galaxy for their craftsmanship and beuaty. On Kushibah, they were often preyed upon by the predatory xinkras. A trait which was unique to the Kushiban was their ability to change the color of their fur, used to express their emotions or to camouflage their body in case of danger. The fur of a peaceful Kushiban was white, but could change to black in a deeply disturbed individual. (TEP, WOTC, PJSB, AQ)

Kushoe, Arsitta
this Alliance X-Wing pilot befriended Evram Darkmere, and helped convince him that his loyalties belonged with the Alliance. Her compelling personality and her descriptions of the Empire's evil swayed Darkmere to throw his support to the Alliance. However, she was shot down and reported missing in action. Her loss shook Darkmere's emotions, and convinced him even more that he needed to help the Alliance. (CRO)

Kushone
a New Republic Colonel who assisted Colin Darkmere by leading a field operation to learn more about the World Devastators. (DESB)

Kussoh Incident
this was the most serious of the skirmishes between the Quenno and Des'mar factions of the Saurton race. It flared up when a miner was called a "lazy coward" by a manager. In the end, fifteen Saurton were killed before security forces could intervene. (PG1)

Kusurrun
this Yuuzhan Vong warship was part of the Battle Group of Yun-Yuuzhan, during the Battle of Ebaq. (DW)

Kut, Polvin
this well-muscled man was a Jedi Knight, some 200 years before the Battle of Naboo.
