Kalena, Fae
this charismatic woman was the owner and operator of the StarLiners passenger shuttle service, serving Brak Sector at the height of the New Order. Originally a pilot in a small-time ferry service, Fae quit to set up StarLiners on her own. Originally just operating between Genesia and Bacrana, Fae quickly expanded her operations when business began to pick up. She invested funds in new ships, and eventually built StarLiners into the largest passenger service in Brak Sector. Fae was also a rebel operative for the Alliance, having joined Trep Reskan and the renegade Bacrana System Defense Force after her brother, Har, was arrested by Imperial forces on Bacrana. She hoped Reskan could help her locate Har, but he was unable to help her. Fae often allowed Alliance personnel to travel on her ships, provided that they paid their own way. (FBS)

Kalend Thora
his Duros smuggler worked for Mal Biron, as part of the Narloni crimelord Sprax's operations. Formerly a smuggler for Kintan gunrunners, Kalend Thora had spent the majority of her career in Corellian space before joining Black Sun. Shortly before the Battle of Endor, Kalend was assigned to smuggling along the Sisar Run with her light freighter, the Starknife. During the events which surrounded the destruction of the mining outpost on Yen-2, Kalend recovered the only copy of the Banari List from Limna Yith, only to have it stolen by Ujin Voli. Voli left her to die in Temptation Canyon, but mercenaries hired by Mal Biron rescued her. (SSR)

Kalenda, Belindi
a slight, dark-skinned female human working for the New Republic Intelligence agency, Belindi was noticeable from her jet-black hair and disarming eyes that never seemed to focus on their subject. As a Lieutenant in the NRI, she was assigned to infiltrate the Corellian Sector in 37 NE and try to find out why other NRI agents were suddenly disappearing. She enlisted Han Solo's help in trying to gather more information. Her operation to land on Corellia was compromised, though, and she was forced to crash into the planet's ocean. When she realized that the NRI had been infiltrated, she changed her mission in the field, acting as the unofficial bodyguard for Princess Leia and Solo family until the New Republic security team arrived. She was forced to go further underground when Thrackan Sal-Solo seceeded the Sector from the New Republic. She was 25 years old when Thrackan Sal-Solo rose to power. She was told by her brother, Tindel, that she was a native of an unspecified backwater world in the Outer Rim, but she grew up on Coruscant. After the crisis in the Corellian Sector was resovled, Belindi remained with the NRI, and eventually held the position of deputy director of operations. By the time the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the galaxy, Belindi had earned the rank of Colonel within the NRI. She oversaw the initial interviews with the Yuuzhan Vong priestess Elan on Wayland, but was later implicated in the "misinformation flap" which arose in the wake of the Battle of Fondor. Her team had provided intelligence enough to point to a Yuuzhan Vong invasion of Corellia, Bothawui, or Tynna. After Tynna was attacked, Corellia was left undefended to lure the Yuuzhan Vong into a trap. However, the aliens attacked at Fondor instead, and the shipyards there were lost. Belindi became something of a scapegoat, and was demoted to Lieutenant Colonel. Nevertheless, she remained a valuable agent for the NRI. In the wake of the Yuuzhan Vong surrender at Coruscant some five years after their invasion began, Belindi found herself promoted to Director of Intelligence for the Galactic Alliance after Dif Scaur was quietly forced into retirement by Cal Omas. (AC, AS, CTD, BP, UF)

Kallea's Hope translated the famed Kallea Cycle opera into a format which easily understood and accessible to the majority of the galaxy. Many art historians of the New Order credit this holo-feature with creating new interest in the life of Freia Kallea and the opera known as the Kallea Cycle. (SWJ5, SWJ13)

Kalmec, The
this was one of the most successful criminal organizations found on Ralltiir, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. The Kalmec was founded by a group of dishomed Wookiees, who shaved the hair off their shoulders in an effort to prove to other beings that Wookiees had actual skin beneath their fur. In other words, Wookiees were not that different from other races. However, there was a darker side to The Kalmec. Below their social activism, the Kalmec were providing an information gathering system for many powerful organizations. It was rumored that The Kalmec was in league with the Separatists, using their informations to sow counter-intelligence that bred dissent on many planets. These rumors were based in fact, since shaven-shouldered Wookiees often appeared on planets where secessionist movements gathered large support. (PH)

Kaloob
this food is consumed by the Ergesh in order to cleanse themselves. It causes all of the Ergesh's glands and organs to secrete copious amounts of fluid, which flushes their systems of any pollutants. Kaloob can be ingested by other races as a detoxifier and antibiotic, but is will also increase moisture production as with the Ergesh. This results in the being shedding large amounts of sweat and tears, and can induce diarrhea and nausea. (PG2)

It was originally settled some 400 years before the Battle of Endor by a group of escaped Twi'lek slaves. During the last years of the Imperial presence in Kathol Sector, Kal'Shebbol was ruled by Moff Kentor Sarne, until the New Republic launched an offensive attack to oust Sarne from power. The planet was infiltrated by Katarn Commandos, and the Imperial forces were routed. Unfortunately for the New Republic, Sarne escaped, and had to be chased across Kathol Sector. (CCG3, DARK, KO)

Kal'Shebbol Fury

Kal-Tan-Shi
this Tiss'shar was a noted bounty hunter and assassin who had an intense rivalry with Ssach'thirix during the early years of the Galactic Civil War. Kal-tan-shi made a living capturing Alliance operatives, preferring to hunt for Alliance personnel because Imperial bounties tended to be higher than individual ones. This alone would have angered the Alliance, but Kal-Tan-Shi had a penchant for killing the operatives during transport. Kal-Tan-Shi earned his reputation as a member of House Paramexor, which specialized in the capture of non-living bounties. He left the Paramexor family to start his own business, which earned him the displeasure of Janq Paramexor, although the two remained good friends for a long time. For an unknown reason, Kal-Tan-Shi hated droids, and didn't use any to help operate his freighter, the Accuser. (GG12, AIR)

Kaltor Naklian
this Ka'hren was a legend among his own people, primarily for his skills with the rantok blade. He studied, and later taught, at the University of Timb, while bounty hunting sentients as a sideline. His exploits in taking the scalps of Wookiees and other alien races earned him a great deal of respect among his peers, as well as the notice of the weaponsmaster Ther-das. Ther-das asked him to become one of the founding members of the Zulirian Swordmasters, and Kaltor quickly agreed. Kaltor became a major force in the formation of the Swordmasters' policies, while maintaining his religious beliefs. Kaltor was aslo known as the founder and leader of the Ni'shaw-Dak Ministry, and somehow managed to keep both efforts separate. It was Kaltor who discovered preserved copies of the Jydan Writings and the Volumes of Truth, next to which he found a perfectly preserved rantok blade and a series of books documenting the history and use of the religious tomes. Thus, he felt himself to have been chosen as Ni'Shaw's third prophet, and set out to establish the Ni'Shaw-Dak Ministry. (AIR)

Kalut was killed in battle with Yaddle, when he fell on his own knife, driving the blade through his lower jaw and into his brain. (T5)

Kaluthin
this unusual strain of grass was developed by the Sith Lord Darth Rivan, when he first came to live on the planet Almas. The kaluthin was developed to help "terraform" the atmopshere of Almas, which at the time was dense with phosphorus, methane, and other poisonous gases. The kaluthin also grew a strong, deep-reaching taproot, which was necessary since all the water on the planet Almas was located underground. Over the centuries, the kaluthin caught hold and spread, helping alter the landscape as well as the atmopshere. Almas' air was soon oxygen-rich, with only traces of phosphorus and methane, but breathing still required a filter or breathmask in order to combat oxygen saturation. Because of the centuries of consuming phosphorus, kaluthin grass actually glows with bioluminescent light, giving the planet a strange aura. (LFC)

Kalzerian
this species of near-humans is native to the planet Kalzeron. They have leathery, gray skin, black teeth, and piercing yellow eyes. (SWJ8)

Kalzeron
this planet was still in a pre-atomic, fuedal age when it was subjugated by the Empire. A small resistance force sprung up, and quietly left the planet in order to train and obtain weapons. However, during this training period, the Empire was routed in the Battle of Endor, and tre forces on Kalzeron were recalled. The resistance group returned home to find themselves branded cowards and traitors, exiled from the planet forever. (SWJ8)

Kam, Nikal
this grizzled old man was a pirate for nearly fifty years before the Battle of Yavin. (IA)

Kama
this was the Mandalorian term for a cape. A shortened variant of the kama was adopted by the ARC Troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic as protection for their legs. It was made from a special material that provided camoflage as well as anti-blast protection. The troopers of the 327th Star Corps also found that the kama protected their legs from the backwash of their jetpacks. Because of its use in the question Tion'ad hukaat'kama?, or "Who's watching your back?", the word kama came to refer to one's backside or back. (SWI80, SWI84, OWS)

Kamar
this planet was the homeworld of the Kamarian race. It was a hot, dusty world, being very close to its white sun. Han Solo once ran a holotheater there during the early years of the New Order, catering to the local Kamarians whle trying to make repairs to the Millennium Falcon and earn some spare cash. The planet was home to a number of incredibly adaptive plants and animals, including the howlrunner. In the wake of the Galactic Civil War, the planet was discovered to have a wealth of crystalline formations hidden beneath the sands of its deserts. The crystals exported from Kamar were prohibitively expensive, since the native Kamarians refused to allow offworld interests to establish mining operations on the planet. (HSR, DE1, DN2)

Kamar Badlands
this desert region was found in the equatorial regions of the planet Kamar, and was home to the Kamarian Badlanders. (HSR)

Kamarian
an insectoid race native to the planet Kamar, the Kamarians have a number of pairs of legs called brachia that support their chitinous exoskeleton. They have multifacted eyes, and a large prehensile tail that they use to sit on in conjunction with their lowermost pair of legs. Most Kamarians lived in the mountains of Kamar, while the Badlanders preferred to live in the deserts. Their color tends to mimic their surroundings - the Badland natives are pale and brown, while the mountain clans ahave more greens and dark browns. They have a unique form of communication, which involves various vocal clicks and whistles as well as way of interweaving their arms to create complex patterns. They also have an emerging technology, although they are a number of advances behind the majority of the galaxy. They have perfected the use of fluidics, as well as missile-based nuclear weapons. As a species, the Kamarians were largely nocturnal. Each subspecies of Kamarian was denoted by the physical characteristics of its carapace. The average lifespan of a Kamarian was about 125 years. (HSR, AE, EGA)

this young Ewok princess was the betrothed of Tippet, an upstanding Ewok from Bright Tree Village. Shortly after the Battle of Endor, Tippet was led to believe that Kamida was assaulted by a Lahsbee, on a false rumor planted by the Hiromi spy Hirog, setting off a war between the Ewoks and the Lahsbees. (MC94)

Kamiel, Earnst
this Justice Action Network terrorist leader was captured on Elrood following the Battle of Yavin. Kamiel was wanted by the Empire because he was the leader and founder of JAN, which rose to prominence on the planet Findris some sixteen years before the Battle of Hoth. The movement spread over much of the Colonies region of the galaxy before Kamiel's capture. Kamiel himself was wanted by the Empire on many charges, including thousands of bombings and the cause of over 10,000 deaths. He also had the death sentence in 54 different systems. Shortly after being caught on Elrood, Kamiel was transported to Haldeen, where he was executed by a firing squad. (SWJ6, SWJ8)

Kamino
this star was the central body in the Kamino System, located in a dwarf satellite galaxy found in the Wild Space region of the known galaxy. (GORW)

Kamino
this water-covered planet was the homeworld of the Kaminoan race. It was the fifth planet in a star system located in the area known as Wild Space, beyond the Outer Rim Territories. The system itself was actually part of a dwarf satellite galaxy that spun within the known galaxy, some twelve parsecs to the south of the Rishi Maze. Kamino was constantly swept by intense rainstorms, earning it the nickname "Planet of Storms." Centuries before the Battle of Geonosis, the planet's surface was made up of flat landmasses that were separated by choppy oceans. Huge glaciers and thick polar caps kept a large part of the planet's water supply under control. Most cities were established on the temperate coastlines. A sudden rise in planetary temperature caused the polar caps to melt completely in less than 200 years, submerging all the landmasses under roiling oceans of water in an event known the Great Flood. Even the planet's best geologists were unprepared for the amount of water that was contained in the glaciers and ice caps. Retreats that were built on mountaintops were quickly abandoned to the rising water. This change in surface level caused additional problems by changing the atmospheric density and configuration, which resulted in the massive storms that swept the planet, dumping more rain into the oceans. The native Kaminoans adapted these changes by building stilted cities that stuck out of the water, sitting above the waves on thin, sturdy columns that provided little resistance to the water. Shortly after the Battle of Naboo, it was on the stilted cities of Kamino that Jango Fett was cloned to create the clone armies used during the Battle of Geonosis. Like many planets, Kamino experienced regular seasons. However, these seasons were marked by variations in heat and cloud cover, but the rains never stopped. The oceans of Kamino held a wide variety of life, including huge cousins of the colo claw fish and opee sea killers found on Naboo. The planet was orbited by three moons. Near the end of the Clone Wars, Kamino was attacked by the Mandalorian Protectors, who were acting under orders from the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The attacks left the cloning facilities in shambles, cutting off one of the Republic's primary sources of clone troopers. (SWI60, OWS, BF1, AOTCN, SWDB, SWI66, RDK, IWE2, SWI80, GORW)

Kamino Accords
this set of laws and regulations was established on the planet Kamino, during the Old Republic's negotiations for a continuous supply of clone troopers for the Grand Army of the Republic during the early stages of the Clone Wars. The Kamino Accords provided guidelines and boundaries on the training of the clone troopers, ensuring that they were all perfectly loyal to the Old Republic and the unwritten Code they operated under.

Kamino Space Control
this division of Kamino's military was concerned with ensuring the safety and security of Kamino's airspace. Kamino Space Control monitored all incoming and outgoing traffic, especially to Tipoca City, and routed ships to their appropriate destinations. (GORW)

Kaminoan
this alien race was native to the planet Kamino, and was descended from a species of amphibians that once lived in Kamino's marches. The average Kaminoan was a tall, thin being with pale skin and a small, knob-like skull. The skull sat atop a thin, seven-boned neck. The male of the species had a thin ridge running along the back their heads, which the females did not display. Their almond-shaped eyes could see into a variety of spectra beyond that of visible light. The Kaminoans were considered one of the most adept species at the creation of clones, although very few beings in the galaxy at large even knew of the existence of the Kaminoans. The Kaminoans had been developing cloning technology for many centuries prior to the Clone Wars. This technology was developed shortly after the Great Flood, when the Kaminoans struggled to survive the global warming of their planet. Genetic manipulation and cloning ensured that the Kaminoans remained a strong and viable species. It was believed that their aloof nature was due, in part, to the genetic manipulation of the Kaminoan gene-pool, which kept the race vital without sacrificing individuality. Many beings speculated that the modern Kaminoans were cloned, rather than created by natural reproduction. Since the post-flood Kamino provided little natural resources, the Kaminoans discreetly sold their cloning services in return for the import of raw materials. The Kaminoans aloof nature, coupled with Kamino's location in Wild Space, kept them isolated from the Old Republic until Jedi Master Syfo-Dyas contacted them about the creation of a clone army. Their anonimity was further ensured when Darth Tyranus filled Sifo-Dyas and erased evidence of the Kamino System from the Jedi Archives, having no desire to have the Jedi discover their former Master's plans. In the wake of the Clone Wars, the Kaminoans tried to fight back against Imperial oppression by secretly creating their own army of clones, loyal only to the Kaminoans themselves. This rebellion was swiftly stamped out by the 501st Legion of Imperial stormtroopers. (SWI60, TCG1, BF1, AOTCN, VD2, SWDB, GORW)
