Momaw Nadon
an Ithorian who was banished from his homeworld, Momaw Nadon has seen the highs and lows of life. As the leader of the Ithorian floatin city Tafanda Bay, he ruled over the best of life's offerings. He was free to maintain the ecological relationship with the Mother Jungle while influencing his race. A chance meeting with an Imperial Star Destroyer which was trying to nail down smuggling routes changed his life, however. The Imperials tried to take the Ithorians' horticultural knowledge, and threatened Momaw Nadon. He was forced to either give up his race's secrets or have the planet razed. He chose to give up some agricultural secrets rather than destroy the planet, and was banished from Ithor forever. Thus, Momaw Nadon became a freelance spy for the Alliance. He was in the Mos Eisley cantina when Obi-Wan and Luke were searching for passage to Alderaan. He is eagerly awaiting the next Ithorian Herd Meet, to rejoin his friends and relatives in spite of the Imperial orders. When the Alliance defeated Palpatine at Endor and restored the Republic, the Imperial directive against him was lifted, and he returned to Ithor to again lead the Tafanda Bay. He later greeted Wedge Antilles and Qwi Xux when they visited Ithor. He is now accompanied by two young human boys: clones of the Imperial agent who threatened him all those years ago, reborn to serve as revenge against the Empire. (SW, SCRE, DA, CCG)

Momen, Reija
this matronly woman, a native of the planet Alderaan, was the chief administrator of the Intergalatic Communications Center on Praesitlyn during the height of the Clone Wars. She had been in charge of the facility for seven years, and considered its staff to be her only family. In fact, they lovingly called her "Momma Momen." She had just five years left on her tour of duty at Praesitlyn before she could return home when the planet was blockaded and attacked by Separatist forces led by Pors Tonith. She had been in contact with General Khamar of the Grand Army of the Republic, who had laid out the defensive plans for protecting the communications center, but they were cut off when the Separatists began jamming all communications. Rather than panicking, Momen drew her support staff together and prepared to destroy the facility, should it fall into enemy hands. Her preparations were not enough, however, and they were quickly captured by Tonith's forces and held hostage. She hated the fact that Tonith was a Muun, since her own father had lost his farm because he couldn't make a loan payment after a series of bad harvests. Tonith took her as his primary hostage, and forced her to record a message to the Republic and its forces on Praesitlyn. Momen agreed, but rather than begging the Republic to abandon Praesitlyn so her staff would not be killed, she ordered the military to attack the Separatists. Her staff had agreed to do what was necessary to keep the center out of the Separatists' hands, and although Momen was beaten for her insolence, she remained strong. Her fortitude paid off for the Republic and her staff, especially when Anakin Skywalker launched a crazy mission to rescue them. Unfortunately, just after Anakin liberated them from the facility's command center, Reija was shot in the chest by a battle droid. The droid would have shot Anakin, as well, but its weapon locked up from poor maintenance. Anakin destroyed it, then used his anger at Reija's useless death to complete the mission. (JT)

Momma Reseros' Diner
this diner, known for its greasy but tasty food, was located in Jugsmuk Station, on the planet Gamorr. It was owned by Reseros Meh. (SWJ14)

Mompmash
this was a common male name among the Gamorrean people. Like most Gamorrean names, it was essentially gibberish that indicated what a Gamorrean would do if you made him angry. (GCG)

Momship
this is the name used by the Squibs to describe their reclamation ships. (SH)

Momu
this Yrashu trial was administered to any being which desired to become part of an individual tribe. The Momu activities went on "for as long as it took," since the Yrashu would not define the exact nature of the requirements for joining a given tribe. Once a being has completed the Momu, they are rewarded with a deep sense of comradie with the Yrashu trive, although they are forbidden to discuss the experience with anyone else. (SWJ2)

Momwar
Ladira indicated that this being would know the whereabouts of Centa Sonhan. (WOA5)

Mon Adapyne
this Mon Calamari cruiser was one of the new warships produced for the New Republic during the struggle against the Yuuzhan Vong.

Mon Calamari
this was another name for the planet Calamari, originally used by the Old Republic and adopted by the Mon Calamari Council after it joined the Alliance. The Quarren of the planet resented this change in names, and continued to use the name Dac amongst themselves. (JASB, GORW)

Mon Calamari
a bipedal, amphibious race, the Mon Calamari share the same homeworld as the Quarren. Many xenobiologists believe the Mon Calamari are descended from squid, but evolved a more humanoid appearance than the Quarren. The males have salmon-colored skin, lobed heads, and protruding eyes. The females are more streamlined, with olive-colored markings on their salmon skin. The Mon Cal, as they are often called, are shore-dwellers, land creatures who prefer to to live near the water. Early Mon Cal civlizations fed on the creatures they found in the shallows, and developed an advanced aquaculture system. When they discovered the Quarren - the other intelligent race on Calamari, who live in the ocean deeps - the two races combined to create a symbiotic society in which both races flourished. Together, they built the huge floating cities that populated Calamari's oceans. Unlike the Quarren, the Mon Cal desired to travel to the stars, and began experimenting with space flight. Their first starships were quite successful, but their dreams of a peaceful life in space was cut short. As with most other alien races, the Mon Cal were simply exploring the galaxy when they were discovered by the Empire. They were quickly put on Palpatine's list of races to subjugate. However, the Mon Cal were one of the few races that put up a fight in the face of certain doom. The normally-peaceful Mon Cal learned quickly from the tactics of the Imperial invaders, and were able to drive them off. This solidified the Mon Cal psyche, and they decided to join the Alliance and overthrow Palpatine's New Order. After serving the Alliance at the Battle of Endor, the Mon Cal have continued to be persecuted by the remnants of the Empire. Calamari was the first place the reborn Palpatine took his World Devastators, and was later attacked by Admiral Daala, in an attempt to show her superiority. The Mon Cal, along with Quarren and the New Republic, have driven back all attempt to take the planet. (ROTJ, DE1, DA, SWSB, GG4, GOF8)

Mon Calamari Ballet
this was one of the most prestigious aquatic dance troupes of the last years of the Old Republic. Their production of Squid Lake was attended by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine himself, following the First Battle of Coruscant. (IS3)

Mon Calamari Blink Code
a series of flashes of light which, when combined in certain patterns, denotes letters of the Basic alphabet. They can then be strung together to form messages. It is regarded as a simple, crude form of cipher. (AC)

Mon Calamari Communications Control
this was the primary communication center created by the New Republic, recently renamed the Galactic Alliance, on the planet Calamari during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Calamari became the provisional capital of the galaxy after the fall of Coruscant, and much of the government's operations were re-established there. (FH3)

Mon Calamari Council
this body of Old Republic loyalists was installed as the leaders of the planet Calamari, during the height of the Clone Wars. With the defeat of the Quarren Isolation League, the planet Calamari found itself without a centralized government. Tensions continued to seethe, so the Mon Calamari Council was formed to help restore order. Representatives from the Quarren and Mon Calamari races served on the Council, hoping to show the planet's inhabitants that there would be no favoritism in the decisions of the Council. Note that Star Wars Insider, issue 73 indicates that the Mon Calamari Council had been in existence for decades before the Clone Wars, but was rife with corruption. During the early stages of the New Order, the Council approved a measure which opened up the planet to the rest of the galaxy. When the Empire tried to subjugate Calamari, the Council agreed to defend their homeworld with as much force as possible. This ultimately drove the Empire off Calamari, and the Council began considering whether or not to ally itself with the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Initially, it was feared that the native Quarren would resent being allied with a predominantly human organization. Mon Calamari industry, however, began providing warships to the Alliance. In the wake of the Battle of Yavin, the Mon Calamari Council formally agreed to join the Alliance. (SWDB, SWI73, GORW)

Mon Calamari Defense Force
formed in the aftermath of the Galactic Civil War, the Mon Calamari Defense Force was created to ensure homeworld security on the planet Calamari. Made up of equal numbers of Quarren and Mon Calamari, the Defense Force developed its own navy to help protect the planet from further Imperial aggression. (SWDB)

Mon Calamari Extreme
this was the Galactic Alliance's codename for a location just beyond the edges of the Calamari star system, to be used by incoming reconnaissance craft who were monitoring the advance of the Yuuzhan Vong warfleet sent to destroy the Alliance's forces during the final stages of the alien invasion of the galaxy. It was here that the Twin Suns, Vanguard, Scimitar, and Rogue Squadrons were to meet and face the advance portion of the Yuuzhan Vong warfleet sent to destroy the Alliance's forces during the final stages of the alien invasion of the galaxy. (UF)

Mon Calamari Inglenook
located in an annex of the Imperial Palace on Coruscant, this building was designed to look and feel like a coral reef. An enclosed pool and clear-walled rooms help keep in humidity, making it the perfect place for Mon Calamari and other aquatic races to relax, during the last decades of the Old Republic. (CCW)

Mon Calamari Knights
this band of Mon Calamari was known as the sworn protectors of their homeworld for many generations, a fact which rankled many Quarren. During the earliest history of their civilization, the Mon Calamari Knights were the primary force which kept the Quarren insurrectionists at bay, thereby maintaining the uneasy truce between the two races. As the civil strife between Quarren and Mon Calamari diminished, so did the necessity for the Mon Calamari Knights, which had become simply a cultural tradition by the time of the Battle of Naboo. However, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars, the Mon Calamari Knights saw the possibility of war and began to train in earnest, fearing that the war might come to their world. These fears proved altogether too real when the Clone Wars broken out and the Quarren Isolation League sided with the Separatists. With the help of Jedi Master Kit Fisto, the Mon Calamari Knights managed to defeat the Quarren and restore peace to Calamari. (SWDB, CWC1)

Mon Calamari Light Cruiser
a smaller series of Mon Calamari starships that contain all the Mon Calamari grace and functionality. Most light cruisers measure 500 meters in lengths, but are similarly equipped with redundant systems. (TIE)

Mon Calamari Nerveshock
this disease affects the Mon Calamari species, and is always fatal. It can remain dormant for years, virtually undetectable, as the Mon Cal ages. When it finally becomes active, it is too late to save the victim. Rapid degeneration of the nervous system is the primary result of the virus, which eventually leaves the Mon Calamari unable to survive. For these reasons, all Mon Calamari children are immunized against it. (TTSB)

Mon Calamari Space
this was the term used to describe those worlds inhabited by the Mon Calamari race, and included the planets of Calamari, Ruisto, and Mantan. (GORW)

Mon Calamari Star Defender
the largest starship ever produced by the Mon Calamari, the Star Defender was created for use by the New Republic Navy some twenty years after the Battle of Endor. Nearly twice a long as a standard Mon Cal cruiser, the Star Defender was also the largest ship bult for the New Republic fleet. (VP)

Mon Calamarian Jellyfish
this jellyfish was native to the planet Calamari. (FH1)

Mon Casima
this New Republic Mon Calamari cruiser was dispatched to assist the Allegiance in defending the world of Adumar from Imperial assault, shortly after the Adumari agreed to join the Republic. (SOA)

Mon Delindo
this Mon Calamari MC80 war cruiser was part of the fleet assigned to Han Solo and the Mon Remonda during the hunt for Warlord Zsinj. It was part of the group dispatched to Comkin Five, and was able to track the Iron Fist until it jumped into hyperspace as soon as the Reprisal was destroyed. (SOC)

Mon Duul
this immense creature was bio-engineered by the Yuuzhan Vong as a kind of organic speaker. Weighing more than four metric tons each, mon duuls were implanted with speciallized villips which had been created to receive transmissions from a master villip. Them using immense tympanic membranes stretched over their bellies, the mon duuls would broadcast the communications from the villip. This allowed a single Yuuzhan Vong to address a huge gathering of his comrades. (DW)

Mon Eron
this planet was the fifth world in the Calamari System. During the final stages of the New Republic's conflict with the Yuuzhan Vong, Mon Eron served as the primary reversion point for warships returning to Calamari from battle arenas. The planet had been terraformed in order to make it possible to live on its surface. Mon Eron was orbited by a pair of moons. (UF, GORW)

Mon Gazza
this world is known for its production of minerals and ores, as well as a healthy industry mining spice. During the last decades of the Old Republic, Mon Gazza was second only to Kessel in its annual production of spice. Although the planet had been overrun with gangsters and spice-pushers, Mon Gazza nonetheless boasted a healthy economy in an otherwise industrial wasteland. Podracing was introduced along the streets and mining roads as a way to entertain the workers, and grew into an industry all its own. Racers were forced to travel along mining roads, avoiding machinery before flying through abandoned mineshafts and around broken equipment. (RAC)

Mon Gazza Speedway
this was the name of the pro-circuit podrace course which wound through the mining districts of Mon Gazza. It had several optional branches that could be added or deleted to make the course harder or easier. (RAC)

Mon Julpa
the crown prince of Tammuz-an in the early days of the Empire, Julpa was a blue-skinned individual who was stripped of his mind and title by Zatec-Cha. Julpa was dropped on Tyne's Horky, and wandered the planet without any memory of his former self. He was known from then on as Kez-Iban, after he saved the life of Jann Tosh's uncle, Gundy. (DCAR, SWDB)

Mon Karren
this Mon Calamari MC80 cruiser was smaller than the Mon Remonda, but served as part of the fleet commanded by Han Solo and dispatched to hunt down Warlord Zsinj. (SOC)

Mon Mothma
this Imperial-class Star Destroyer was part of a New Republic fleet which was commandeered by Garm Bel Iblis to assist in the defense of the Jedi base on Eclipse, some two years after the Yuuzhan Vong began their invasion of the galaxy. The Mon Mothma accompanied the Elegos A'Kla to Talfaglio, against the wishes of the New Republic military, to ensure that the Jedi Knights escaped without mishap. It was later learned that Chief of State Borsk Fey'lya himself authorized the use of the Star Destroyers, legitimizing their appearance in rescuing the Jedi. Both ships were able to transport thousands of Talfaglion refugees away from the Yuuzhan Vong, in addition to defending Eclipse against discovery. The Mon Mothma was one of the first Star Destroyers equipped with a new form of gravity-well projector, but even that weaponry was no match for the sheer numbers of the Yuuzhan Vong. During the Second Battle of Coruscant, the Mon Mothma fought valiantly, but was unable to stem the tide of alien attackers. The Mon Mothma retreated to Borleias, and assisted in the retaking of the planet by Wedge Antilles and his Inner Circle. Once at Borleias, the Mon Mothma and her crew again fought well, driving back wave after wave of Yuuzhan Vong attackers until the Starlancer project could be launched. Then, the ship was hidden at the edge of the Pyria System during the evacuation of Borleias. When the battle had turned enough to allow escape, the Mon Mothma jumped back to Borleias and pounded the Yuuzhan Vong worldship until the refitted Lusankya could be brought to bear on the Yuuzhan Vong. Later, the Mon Mothma served as the flagship of General Wedge Antilles' fleet, which set out to pound the Yuuzhan Vong at Duro. Once again, the Mon Mothma took heavy damage, but it was all part of a plan which drew Yuuzhan Vong ships into the Duro System, where they coud be trapped using gravity-well projectors. The plan nearly failed when Commander Yurf Col broke ranks, but the rest of the ships completed their mission. With the formulation of Operation Trinity, the Mon Mothma was repaired and sent back into action, this time at Bilbringi. With the loss of the Holonet, General Antilles' task force was cut off without reinforcements. She took a heavy pounding, and several other ships in the fleet were destroyed. In order to stay in the fight, Antilles ordered the ship's shielding to be dminished, making it appear as if the Mon Mothmas's main reactors were about to explode. The ruse worked, as the Yuuzhan Vong pulled back to escape the ship's blast radius. The Mon Mothma then limped back to Mon Calamari for repairs. Years later, the Mon Mothma was paired with the Admiral Ackbar in a blockade of the Utegetu Nebula, in an effort to prevent the Killiks of the Dark Nest from escaping into the galaxy. When the Gorog launched their escape, the Mon Mothma took the brunt of the fire, and was badly damaged. Admiral Bwua'tu was forced to call for a retreat, but the fleet was saved when the Gorog ship was finally disabled. Unfortunately, the Admiral Ackbar was captured by the crew of UnuThul's frigate, and four of the Colony's nest ships escaped with the Star Destroyer in tow. The crew of the Mon Mothma then had to split time between rescuing lifepods from her sister ship and keeping the rest of the nest ships contained within the nebula. Once Admiral Bwua'tu was aboard, he ordered the Mon Mothma to open fire on the remaining nest ships, hoping to eliminate as much of the Colony as he could. (SBS, EL1, EL2, FP, UF, DN2)

Mon Remonda
an MC80b Mon Calamari Star Cruiser delivered to the New Republic following the Battle of Endor. It was placed under the command of Han Solo, and was used to battle the warlord Zsinj. Solo and the ship's Captain, a Mon Calamari named Onoma, pursued Zsinj across the edges of the Warlord's holdings, hoping to catch him unaware. Instead, they often led be Zsinj to a world he wanted for himself, but didn't want to expend resources to take. When the Mon Remonda pummeled certain facilities, it left them vulnerable to Zsinj's takeover. It was later destroyed in battle with the World Devastator Silencer-7 when the reincarnated Emperor Palpatine started his campaign against the New Republic. All hands were lost, but not before the Mon Remonda took out an Imperial-class Star Destroyer. (CPL, DE1, EGV, IF)

Mon Tondievz City
this settlement, found on the planet Krann, is the corporate headquarters of Mon Tondievz, Limited. It is situated not far from the corporate nova crystal mines, and with striking distance of the Tagge camp on the planet. (TSK)

Mon Tondievz, Limited

Monab
this name, which meant "hard-working", was common among Gungan males. (GCG)

Monad
this was the name given to any huge, self-contained living structure. Popularized on the cityworld of Coruscant, a monad contained all the essential entities of a full community, providing its inhabitants with a complete living experience. A being living in a monad had all the conveniences located within the monad, and never had to leave the building, if they so desired. Included within the building were hydroponics gardens and parks. (DMSH)

Monad
this was the name given to a series of bottom-of-the-line surveillance drones manufactured by Carbanti United Electronics during the last decades of the Old Republic. These drones were little more than a camera unit and a microphone connected to a limited artificial-intelligence module. This allowed the monad to be placed in almost any location. (YDR)

Monadin System
this largely uninhabited star system was located near Kuat, and served as one of the two main staging for cargo-bearing traffic which was inbound to the Kuat Freight Port. (PSPG)

Monarc C-4
this was the designation of a Class 1 Nubian hyperdrive system produced during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. It saw prominent use in the Naboo N-1 starfighter. (X1, NEGV)

Monarch
this Imperial-class Star Destroyer was under the command of Captain Averen, and was part of the Empire's home fleet guarding Coruscant. When the New Republic tried to retake the world, the Monarch and the Triumph were the only two ships remaining to guard it. It was assumed that Ysanne Isard took the other Star Destroyers with her along with the Lusankya. (WG)

Monastery
Darth Vader once used the help of Tagge House to try and capture Luke Skywalker on this planet, shortly after the Battle of Yavin. The natives of the planet were all part of a huge religion known as the Order of the Sacred Circle, which referred to the great circle of life. The members of the Order believed that the rings which surrounded the planet were the embodiment of the circle of life. The rings of Monastery were not simply made up of dust and debris, but scores of moon-sized rocks. Vader had allied himself with Domina Tagge, who tried to pit Vader against Skywalker in an effort to eliminate the two individuals who had shamed her family. Unfortunately, the only death from their duel was that the Orman Tagge, Domina's older brother. (SWDB, HNN5, MC35, MC37)

Mondaran

this exotic-looking, humanoid alien was the Sith magician who served as the Gatekeeper to the Sith Holocron owned by Krova the Hutt. She claimed to be the "Judge of the Jedi," but was unable to break Krova's mind. (GMR5)

Mone
this Iskalonian male was the first to make contact with Lando Calrissian, when the Alliance dispatched the Millennium Falcon to locate Tay Vanis, shortly before the Battle of Endor. Like most Iskalonians, Mone was a cheerful individual who couldn't resist commenting on the frailties of living out of the water. His father Primor, the ruler of the Iskalonians, considered Mone to be an irresponsible pleasure-seeker. When Lando formed a mission to travel to Gamandar to locate Tay Vanis, Mone volunteered to accompany them. He believed that his knowledge of the planet would be beneficial, and his wife, Kendle, agreed. Unknown to them all, however, was that Kendle had already alerted Admiral Tower of their mission, so they were captured almost as quickly as they arrived on Gamandar. Thanks to the tireless and daring work of R2-D2, they managed to escape from Gamandar and return to Iskalon, only to find that the city of Pavillion, and a great many Iskalonians, had been destroyed by a tidal wave. Among the dead were his father, Primor, and his wife, Kendle. Mone took it upon himself to assume leadership of the Iskalonians, taking on the role of The First to Swim in an effort to bring them together to rebuild their lives. He also forbade the Alliance from returning to Iskalon, for fear of another Imperial reprisal, and shut Iskalon's doors to offworlders. (MC74, MC75, MC76, GMR1)

Money Lane
this was the term used by many star pilots to describe an unmarked area within the sights of a ship's laser cannon. Depending on the configuration of a starship and its weapons emplacements, the exact position of the Money Lane changed from vessel to vessel. However, it was commonly known that hitting targets within the Money Lane was often more difficult than more wide-open shots. During their early smuggling careers, Han Solo and Chewbacca had agreed that the Money Lane aboard the Millennium Falcon was the area of overlap around the edge of the ship's saucer, where both quad-laser cannons could fire. (HSR)

Moneylend
this was an unofficial name given to the planet Muunilinst. (SOP, SWMW)

Monga
this serpent was easily distinguished by its three forked, orange tongues. (BF6)

Mongei Shai
this ancestor of Shedao Shai was one of the first Yuuzhan Vong warriors to visit the known galaxy, some fifty years before the start of their invasion along Vector Prime. He was killed on Bimmiel by a pack of slashrats, and his remains were mummified in a cave until their discovery by Doctor Anki Pace. Shedao Shai himself returned with the second wave of Yuuzhan Vong invaders, but was defeated at Dantooine before he could reach Bimmiel. He later traveled to Bimmiel, but was unable to locate Mongei Shai's remains, primarily because the magnetic field of Bimmiel had shifted, altering the coordinates at which his remains lay in wait. (DTO)

Mongo Beefhead
an unusual humanoid with red skin and a flat, tentacled head. (ECAR)

Mongworst
this deadly insect was native to Geonosis. The Geonosians bred a mutated form of mongworst for use in their combat arenas. (IWE2)

Monitor
this Nebulon-B frigate was the lead ship in an Imperial resupply convoy bound for the Imperial-II class Star Destroyer Corrupter, when the convoy was ambushed by the Alliance. All suuplies were stolen, as the Alliance tried to force the Corrupter out of battle by starving it of supplies. (XWA)

Monitor III
this Republic Cruiser was dispatched by the Old Republic to put an end to the Iridium Pirate band which raided Republic grain and supply convoys near the planet Vuchelle, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. The task force was led by the Jedi Knights Belsed-Qan Idan and Kit Fisto, and the Monitor III carried with it a small fleet of starfighters. The Iridium Pirates wielded a power gem, using its power to cause heavy damage to the Monitor III and her crew. Four Republic judiciaries and two Jedi Knights, Dovish Hokken and Yrada Soludisan, were killed in the explosions. The Jedi starfighter pilots, flying in Aethersprite-class fighters, managed to overwhelm the Iridium Pirates before the Monitor III had to be abandoned. (HNN4)

Monjai
this female Elomin served as the planetary governor of Kal'Shebbol, in the wake of the departure of Imperial Moff Kentor Sarne, some four years after the Battle of Endor. (DARK)

this was a Yuuzhan Vong used to indicate an individual's displeasure with another. In essence, it meant that the speaker wanted to be left alone. (FH2)

Monnda Tebbo
this Duro once served as the navigator for the spice smuggling ship Ill Wind. While aboard the ship, he learned everything he could about smuggling from a Corellian navigator named Sumok. Sumok also gave Tebbo information on how to reach the Alliance, should he ever need help. Shortly afterward, the Ill Wind was caught by an Imperial fleet near Uogo'Cor and damaged. Sumok died in the battle, and the ship lost all power. Tebbo's quick thinking allowed him to obtain some measure of control of the tumbling ship, and he managed to use the shields as brakes to get the ship on the ground. After landing, the crew had to hide from Imperial patrols for four days before being rescued by the Alliance. Tebbo and the entire crew joined the Alliance, and Tebbo was assigned navigational duties aboard the Flurry. His skills with the Quasar Fire-class ship made an a valuable advisor, and he was dispatched to the Virgillian System to help the newly-formed Virgillian Free Alignment learn how to fly them. Unfortunately for the Alliance, Tebbo was killed when the Flurry was destroyed at the Battle of Bakura. (TBSB)

Monnok
this Soccorran predator is known for its ability to maintain the hunt over the planet's ash-covered deserts. Many Soccorran hunters admire and respect the monnok's abilities, and Soccorran smugglers consider it good luck to see a monnok before beginning a voyage. The monnok is a tall, semi-sentient humanods with yellowish skin, and they have developed a rudimentary use of tools. Chewbacca had a holographic monnok on his holochess board aboard the Millennium Falcon. (CCG2, BSS)

Monnon, Kem
this Major in the Alliance was in charge of the Corps of Engineers. He held the responsibility of establishing Echo Base on Hoth in the years following the Battle of Yavin. (ISU)

Monoc
a derogatory term used to describe the Abyssin race. (CCG)

Mono-cord Whip
this vicious weapon is created from unbreakable, serrated fiber straps. These whips are capable of cutting through some plastics, let alone fabric and flesh. They were used on many backwater worlds by the law enforcement agencies, to keep rabble-rousers in line. (SWJ9)

Monocrystal Chaining
this is a structural technique that uses a single, precision engineered element to form a panel or beam. The resulting wall or support is quite strong, but thin enough to conduct sounds from adjoining rooms. Monocrystal-chained walls are used primarily in casinos. (MA)

Monofilament Screen Guard
manufactured by Novaplex, this device was used to protect an entrance or walkway from unwanted intrusion. Once activated, the screen guard extended a series of needle-sharp monofilament strands vertically upward for two meters. These strands had a high tensile strength, and literally shredded clothing and flesh which passed through them. The use of these screen guards was outlawed in many star systems, because they were extremely dangerous. (GFT)

Monomolecular Blade
this form of knife is formed from a length of high-strength, single-inline-molecule material. They are incredibly sharp, but also incredibly fragile. (TFE)

Monor
this was the innermost planet in the Monor System, located in Doldur Sector. (SWJ6)

Monor II
this Outer Rim world is located in the Monor System, which is part of the Doldur Sector. It is the homeworld of the Sunesu race, which have evolved with the ability to breathe Monor's otherwise deadly atmosphere. From space, Monor II appears to be a huge pearl with a changing nacreous coating. The pearlescence is due to the thick layer of cirrifog that fills the atmosphere. Cirrifog is toxic to most humanoids. The planet was originally discovered by Eujustus Kline, who was an explorer working for the Solgg Chemical Company. Thus, the planet is often referred to as Kline Colony. The average day on the planet lasts 28 standard hours, and its year lasts 378 local days. Nom Anor later revealed that he had infected Mara Jade Skywalker with coomb spores on this planet, during the ascension of Agapos the Tenth. (SWJ10, BP)

Monotheer, Edallia
this woman was Gara Petothel's mother. She was born on Coruscant, and trained to be an actress. She caught the eye of Armand Isard, who trained her to be an Intelligence agent. She eventually married Dalls Petothel, but both of them were arrested for supposedly funneling secret Imperial information to rebel forces on the planet Chandrila. New Republic analysis of her files indicated she had never had any contact with the Alliance. An old man mistakenly thought Lara Notsil was Edallia, during a Wraith Squadron visit to the Galactic Museum, which tipped off Garik Loran to Lara's true identity. The old man had been one of Edallia's former teachers. (SOC)

Monsoon Mesa
this tableland, located on the planet Jabiim, was the rallying point for the Army of the Republic's forces, during the Battle of Jabiim.

Monsua Nebula
this area of interstellar gases was located in the Moddell Sector of the galaxy, on the border between the Inner Zuma region and Wild Space. In addition to dense gases and clouds of dust and debris, the Monsua Nebula was filled with young blue giant stars and brown dwarfs. Because the nebula emitted large amounts of radiation and was difficult to navigate, much of it remained unexplored even during the early years of the New Republic. Many of the stars located within it remained designated by the alphanumeric identifiers used by the Old Republic, more than a thousand years earlier. The Monsua Nebula was infamously known for the amount of pirate activity which occurred in its vicinity, during the last decades of the Old Republic. (GMR9, HNN4)

Montagne, Elise
this woman and her husband lived on the planet Dantooine some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. When her husband died, Elise was left with his droid, C8-42. She latched onto the droid with great emotion, since the droid represented all that she had left of her husband. C8-42, however, believed that the attachment was doing emotional harm to Elise, and tried to run away. At the Jedi enclave, C8-42 begged to be destroyed, so that Elise could be freed. When she arrived a the enclave, Elise was distraught to learn that C8-42 had been dismantled. She ran into the enclave in tears, where she met Samnt.
