Roron Corobb
this Ithorian Jedi Master was once the Padawan of Yarael Poof, who helped develop Corobb's already strong mental skills. His unusual, stereosonic voice, coupled with his strong connection to the Force, gave Master Corobb incredibly powers of persuasion, especially against the weak-minded. He could also use the Force to literally throw his voice, creating a form of sonic assault on an unsuspecting foe. Master Corobb agreed to take on the rank of General during the Clone Wars, commanding a group of clone troopers in battle while also trying to train his young Padawan, Drake Lo'gaan. Master Corobb was part of the task force that was dispatched to protect Chancellor Palpatine when General Grievous launched his attack on Coruscant. Unfortunately, Grievous was able to kill both Master Corobb and Master Foul Moudama before taking Palpatine hostage. This character was named in honor of Ron Cobb, who created the original designs used for the Ithorian alien in Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope. (SWDB, ROF)

this muscular Mawan male was a tunnel worker during the years leading up to the Great Purge that destroyed the city of Naatan.

Rorworr
this Wookiee, who lived on Kashyyyk some 4,000 years before the Battle of Yavin, was one of a small number who wanted to sell his fellow Wookiees into slavery to the Czerka Corporation. When he explained his plans to Jaarak, Rorworr was unprepared for any resistance. Rorworr was later killed by Jaarak, in an effort to prevent the enslavement of the Wookiees. Jaarak, however, was eventually cleared of any charges, after the true nature of Rorworr's plans for the Wookiees was revealed. (KOTOR)

Rorworr
this Wookiee scout was part of the Naboo Underground resistance to the Trade Federation's invasion of the planet Naboo. Rorworr had been a student at the Royal House of Learning, employing a translator droid designated TD0-2 to communicate with his teachers and classmates. Rorworr was on Naboo with his father, who was on a diplomatic mission to Naboo at the time of the Trade Federation's blockade of the planet. Following the Battle of Naboo, Rorworr went to work as a scout for the Republic, but became disgruntled when his recommendations were ignored in favor of those from his human counterparts. Following the formation of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, Rorworr became a pilot for the Alliance. He traveled in a modified A-Wing, which was equipped with enhanced sensors that allowed him to hide in an asteroid belt and track Imperial ship and troop movements. However, he grew tired of fighting, and wished to simply "get away" from the politics and return to his life as a scout. For many years, Rorworr wandered aimlessly along the galactic rim, trying to forget the death of Sia-Lan Wezz at the Battle of Skorrupon. Eventually, after the Empire was defeated at the Battle of Endor, Rorworr was offered a scout's position with the New Republic. He became something of a scouting legend, traveling in a camouflage-painted Svelte-class shuttle and participating in a variety of famous escapades. (IOT, WOTC, GCG)

Ros Lai
this deformed woman, known as the Rancor, was the daughter of matriarch Zalem of the Witches of Dathomir.

When Quinlan Vos arrived on Dathomir, Ros Lai tried to help him. She was later shot and wounded by Yongti, during a raid of the slave pens. Ros Lai survived, but Zalem tried to kill her again, Zalem gave her a drink, after Vonya found her hiding after the raid. The drink contained a live artery worm, which Zalem hoped would consume Ros Lai's blood vessels. Despite these efforts, Ros Lai survived, and later helped Quinlan free the Kwi. Ros Lai also revealed that her deformities were actually the daughter of a Jedi Knight whose wife murdered him after using his Force talents for her own schemes. She later revealed to Quin that she was quite strong with the Dark Side of the Force, and had been maintaining her guise as "The Rancor" in order to gain the power of the Star Chamber for herself. She managed to escape from Vonya and return to her mother's side, claiming to deliver Quin as a way of "making up." In reality, Ros Lai used the ruse to get close enough to Zalem to kill her mother and avenge the death of her father. She then tried to kill Quin, but he managed to capture her and bring her to Coruscant to receive justice. Quin hoped to return her to the Light Side of the Force. (SWIE)

Commander Roshton was assigned to accompany Kinman Doriana to Cartao, about a year after the Battle of Geonosis, to secure the facilities of Spaarti Creations for the manufacture of modern cloning cylinders. When the Separatists discovered the plan, they launched an attack on Cartao. Roshton found himself between two conflicting orders: defending Spaarti Creations from being captured, and ensuring the continued production of cloning cylinders. Faced with challenge of opposing 5,000 battle droids with just 900 troops, Roshton initially chose the former: he troops would hide inside the manufacturing facility, using it as cover despite the incredible damage a firefight inside the facility would cause. After being contacted by the Jedi guardian on Cartao, Jafer Torles, Roshton realized that there were other options he could take. He ordered his troops to move below-ground, taking the tunnels that led away from the main plant to establish positions from which they could harass the rear flanks of the Separatist forces. Roshton himself assumed the guise of a landscaper, so that he could plant remote-activated landmines around the grounds. His plans nearly worked, until his forces were trapped in an access tunnel when Separatist forces collapsed its exits. Doriana and Torles launched a daring mission to free them, only to see Spaarti Creations destroyed by a Republic gunship supposedly under the command of the Jedi Knights. (SWI68, SWI69, SWI70)

Roshu Sune
this Gotal guerilla group rose to prominence in the months preceding the Battle of Antar 4, in an attempt to force the planetary government to secede from the Old Republic. It was the terrorist attacks of the Roshu Sune which led to the bloody Battle of Antar 4, but which did not obtain the desired result. Several months later, Roshu Sune agents kidnapped Gotal Emissary Nathanjo Nirrelz, and simply issued the Articles of Secession to the government of Antar 4, instead of any formal demands.

Later, while smuggling weapons to the Alliance from Merich's Bend, Saahir died in Thaddeus' arms. The Empire had discovered the base, and raided it before all personnel could be evacuated. When he took a job transporting Adalric Brandl to Trulalis, Ross got caught up in an Imperial operation to recover the Dark Jedi. They were ambushed on Trulalis by Menges, and Ross fled the planet with Brandl. They were intercepted just outside of Trulalis by Imperial Captain Grendahl, who had been sent by High Inquisitor Tremayne to recover Brandl.

Rostat Manr
this Sullustan male served the Alliance during the last years of the Empire, flying Y-Wings into battle. He also served the New Republic, but a year after the Battle of Endor, he resigned his commission and went to work in the private sector. He had tired of war, and believed that he had acheived his goals. He took a position as a pilot with Event Vistas, and within a year was promoted to chief pilot aboard the Nebula Queen. However, on a short leave, he was kidnapped and brainwashed by agents of the Imperial warlord Zsinj as part of Project Minefield. A trigger phrase was implanted in his head which, when activated by a phrase dealing with the existence of Ewoks in his nose, would cause him to crash the Nebula Queen into a planet. The code phrase contained the planet Coruscant, and Rostat would have succeeded in crashing into the planet if not for two things. The first was intervention of his counterpart, Nurm, who stunned Rostat and rendered him unconscious. The second was that Wraith Squadron had already determined Zsinj's actions, and had warned the Republic of the potential for a Sullustan to be brainwashed in the manner Tal'dira and Nuro Tualin were. Rostat was arrested and detained by New Republic Intelligence. (SOC)

this Korunnai man was one of the many who joined the Upland Liberation Front, during the height of the Clone Wars. When Jedi Master Depa Billaba began leading the ULF, Nick was the person she dispatched to Pelek Baw to intercept Mace Windu, should the other Jedi Master come looking for her. Rostu missed Windu several times before eventually rescuing him, then escorted the Jedi Master into the jungles. Nick earned Windu's trust by displaying Master Billaba's own lightsaber as evidence of his fealty. Despite his obvious association with ULF, Nick maintained that he was fighting the war for the money he could earn. Although he acknolwedged his Korun ancestry, he proclaimed to want nothing more than to leave Haruun Kal and explore the galaxy. This was, of course, mainly talk that Nick used to distance himself from his own feelings. Deep down inside, he wanted to see the Korunnai regain control of their planet. He later revealed to Master Windu that he had helped Depa Billaba and Kar Vastor set up the gruesome message of death that had been discovered by the Old Republic, and that he himself had provided the tip to the Republic's Intelligence agency. Later, when Vastor attacked a group of Balawai prospectors under Windu's protection, Nick agreed to take four of the Balawai children under he protection. When Master Windu witnessed Nick's bravery in defying Vastor to care for the children, he decided to invite Nick to join the Army of the Republic, bestowing the rank of brevet Major. Nick then assisted Master Windu in the attempt to capture Pelek Baw so that they could defeat the Balawai and their Separatist supporters. While defending the droid control bunker from attack by Kar Vastor's Akk Guards, Nick suffered a devastating chest injury from Iolu's vibroshields. Despite the injury, Nick managed to save Master Windu from an attack from Depa Billaba, who had been trying to free the Korunnai through sheer willpower. When Depa tried to slice Windu with her lightsaber, Nick managed to grab a blaster and shoot the lightsaber from her hand. His luck continued to hold, as Nick was rescued from Haruun Kal and brought to Coruscant for treatment. Master Windu made sure that his brevet Major rank was confirmed with the Army of the Republic, and submitted that Nick be awarded the Medal of Valor for his part in ending the Summertime War. (SHPT)

this Ferroan man, distinguished by his pale blue skin and gold-black eyes, was one of the first of his people to greet Luke Skywalker's Jedi Knights, when the Jedi located Zonama Sekot during the height of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. Along with his partner, Darak, Rowel was openly suspicious of the presence of the Jedi on the planet, despite the fact that Sekot itself allowed the Jedi to land. After Sekot had successfully tested the Jedi Knights to ensure that their mission was, indeed, a peaceful resolution to the conflict with the Yuuzhan Vong, the planetary sentience agreed to return to the galaxy and help the Jedi. Rowel and Darak both accepted Sekot's decision, and eventually decided that the Jedi were worthy of their assistance. When Zonama Sekot made a blind jump into hyperspace to avoid the sabotage of Nom Anor, the Ferroans were forced to flee underground to avoid the ecological damage that occurred on the surface. Rowel and Darak made many trips into the wilderness to look for survivors, often with the help of the Jedi. (FH3, UF)

Rowen
an Imperial Lieutenant who served aboard the Victory-class Star Destroyer Sentinel, Rowan was once punished for publicly embarrassing his captain. As punishment, he was forced to work as an attache to the Imperial Customs office on Wroona, boarding and inspecting commercial and independent starships which passed through Wroona's spaceports. He was known as a bitter man who demanded adherence to the letter of the law, and who never - ever - took a bribe.

Roy Teda
this short-statured Romin ruled the planet Romin with an iron fist, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Teda had been identified by the Galactic Senate as being in violation of many galactic laws, including torture, embezzlement, and unjust imprisonment of political and personal rivals. It was also believed that he had rigged the elections so that he would be chosen as Romin's leader. Once in office, he altered Romin's laws to make it impossible for offworlders to arrest or transport criminals from Romin. This allowed him to expand his personal wealth by offering Romin as a refuge for all manner of criminals. Distinguished by his multicolored robes, Roy Teda presented visitors and prospective homeowners with a personable demeanor that bordered on cloying condescension. In exchange for being able to live in relative peace on Romin, criminals agreed to pay Teda huge sums of credits, and allowed him to have security access to their properties. Teda then used droid armies to patrol the city of Eliior, ensuring that none of the workers entered the city without authorization. He preferred to be called by the title of Great Leader, but many Romins forced the name out only because it pleased Teda. However, his extravagant lifestyle and demanding leadership took its toll on his supporters, and many of his personal guards began to simply leave his services, several years prior to the Battle of Geonosis. He was forced to backfill them with guard droids, but he could only afford a handful of operative units. When the Citizens' Resistance launched their rebellion, Teda was forced to flee his palace and hide in a safehouse, well outside the city of Eliior, with Jenna Zan Arbor. They requested a meeting with the Slams, who were actually Obi-Wan Kenobi, Siri Tachi, Anakin Skywalker, and Ferus Olin in disguise. It was at this point that Teda realized he was no longer in control of Romin, as Zan Arbor asserted herself as the leader of their group. However, their plans were cut short when Mace Windu and a group of Jedi reinforcements landed on Romin and captured them both. They were turned over to Joylin for sentencing, but Joylin simply allowed them to reach the real Slams and escape Romin, thereby solidifying his own position of leadership. Teda and his cohorts fled to Falleen, where they had been building the Blackwater Systems facility to test distribution methods for the Zone of Self-Containment. They were forced to flee to Coruscant when the Jedi followed them to Falleen, but they were able to gain an audience with the Senate through Bog Divinian. Roy Teda spoke eloquently against the Jedi Order, using subtle twists of the truth and outright lies to spin a tale of how the Jedi were behind his ouster. Unknown to Teda, however, was the fact that Granta Omega considered him expendable, an asset to be used and then thrown away. Teda realized this was Omega launched his Zone-laden seeker droids on the Senate, and one of the seeker droids targetted him specifically. Despite the efforts of Ferus Olin to protect both Palpatine and Teda, a seeker droid managed to get a clear shot, and killed Teda with a single blast to the chest. (JQ8, JQ9)

Royal Imperial Guard
red-armored protectors of the Emperor, these servants are specially-trained stormtroopers who met certain physical and emotional characteristics. No one has ever discovered exactly how many guards made up the Royal Guard. They were trained on the barren world of Yinchorr, where they learned that deadly art of Echani and often fought to the death against their fellow trainees in order to prove their loyalty to Emperor Palpatine. Their red armor is based on two unique designs: that of the Mandalorian Death Watch and the Thyrsus Sun Guards. Following the death of Emperor Palpatine in the Battle of Endor, the Royal Imperial Guard made a change to their robes. A hem of black was added to the bottom of their robes, indicating that they were mourning the death of Palpatine. Even after the mandatory year of mourning had passed, the black hem remained as an homage to the dead Emperor. When Palpatine reappeared, in body of one of his clones, on the planet Byss, the Royal Guard returned to his side. When the clones were destroyed by the New Republic, many of the Guards were killed as well. The survivors gathered on Yinchorr, and were told of Carnor Jax's treachery against Palpatine's clones. Jax then attacked the Yinchorr compound, eliminating all the Royal Guards except for Kir Kanos and Kile Hannad. Hannad died, fighting back Jax's troops so that Kanos could escape to plan revenge for Jax's treason. (ROTJ, ISB, XWN, CE)
