this protocol droid was produced by Cybot Galactica as a way to gain marketshare in the Lurian markets. Designed to appear similar in stature to Lurians, the PD series had advanced servomechanics that allowed it to move about on Lur's rugged surface. The delicate hands of the 3PO unit were replaced with heavy gripping untis, and the PDs were given bright coloration to make them stand out in the snowy environment of Lur.

Peace Brigade
this group of dissidents was formed during the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy, some twenty-five years after the Battle of Endor. Originally the brainchild of Nom Anor and several others, the Peace Brigade maintained that the Jedi Knights and the New Republic were doing more harm than good in fighting against the Yuuzhan Vong, and advocated the formation of a peace treaty with the Yuuzhan Vong to end the hostilities. The Peace Brigade openly denounced the Jedi Knights, claiming it was their lack of compassion which destroyed Ithor and Obroa-skai. The Peace Brigade was known to have been providing information on planetary defenses to the Yuuzhan Vong, which they had gained from a source that had somehow infiltrated the highest levels of New Republic security. The group decided to prove their loyalty and worth to the Yuuzhan Vong after Reck Desh learned of Elan's seeming defection to the New Republic. The Yuuzhan Vong recognized the usefulness of the group, and executed all the Hutts on the planet Ylesia in order to turn the planet and its glitterstim operations to the Peace Brigade. Working from their new headquarters on the planet Ylesia, they began using credits generated by the sale of glitterstim to fund their operations and the build-up of their military. They used a high-level contact within the Republic to learn of her transport to Coruscant, and prepared to waylay the Queen of Empire in order to capture her and return her to the Yuuzhan Vong. The Brigade was unaware that Elan was acting with the knowledge of the Yuuzhan Vong, and their entire plan to eliminate the Jedi Knights was dashed when the Peace Brigade ambushed the ship. However, the leaders of the Peace Brigade were undaunted in trying to gain power. They insinuated themselves into the plans surrounding the reclamation of Duro's natural environment, manipulating various shipping companies into buying votes within the Duros High House. With the loss of Duro, the Peace Brigade tried to broker a cease-fire with the Yuuzhan Vong by agreeing to turn over the Jedi Knights to the aliens, believing that the only way to save the galaxy was to sacrifice the Jedi. The Peace Brigade went out of their way to locate Jedi Knights, and even tried to capture some beings who were merely Force-sensitive, in an effort to appease the Yuuzhan Vong. When a team of Brigaders tried, but failed, to capture the students at the Jedi praxeum on Yavin 4, the Yuuzhan Vong executed them as sacrifices to their gods. As the war dragged on, the Peace Brigade established a form of government on Ylesia, and attempted to create a naval fleet to augment that of their Yuuzhan Vong superiors. The desire of individual factions within the Peace Brigade to please the alien invaders left little time to actually develop their military, so the Supreme Overlord Shimrra appointed Thrackan Sal-Solo the President of Ylesia and the Commander in Chief of the Peace Brigade. (HT, BP, EVC, EVR, Y, UF)

Peace City
this was the name given to Ylesia's Colony One settlement, after the Peace Brigade took control of the planet and moved their "capital" to the city. Much of Peace City was given over to slave camps, although much of the city was set aside for the Yuuzhan Vong and the Peace Brigade government. (Y)

Peacebringer, Aron
this man was the Warlord of the Calian Confederacy, on the planet Shiva IV, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. His marriage to Alisande produced a number of children, although their first-born daughter died of a mysterious disease which Aron himself managed to survive. He was also the blood-brother of Keral Longknife, and worked with his T'Syriel brethren to forge a lasting peace between their two peoples. However, both of them agreed that life on Shiva IV had been happier before the peace accord was signed, when small battles were easily won in comparison to the resistance of the Outcasts. Despite his given name and his work with Keral, Aron was known as a master swordsman who fought with an terrible ferocity that ensured none of his opponents survived a challenge. During a mission to investigate the fate of the city of K'avor, Aron and his companions located Leia Organa, who had crashlanded on the planet. Leia was in the sector to investigate the build-up of Imperial forces in the area, and her shuttle had been hit by a micromine. Aron found himself in love with Leia, despite his happiness with his marriage to Alisande. Alisande, for her part, acknowledged Aron's feelings, but never left his side. Shortly afterward, Aron and Leia were captured by General Sk'ar, who planned to destroy Illyriaqum in an effort to subjugate Shiva IV's population. They managed to escape, and with the help of Luke Skywalker and Chewbacca, they defeated Sk'ar and eliminated his threat. Aron finally was able to reconcile his love for Leia, and happily returned to Alisande's side. (MC53)

Four were killed and two rendered unconscious when Bearsh and his Vagaari staged their insurrection aboard the Outbound Flight. However, the survivors managed to hold their own against the invaders after the various teams of outsiders - Luke Skywalker and his wife, Mara Jade Skywalker, Chak Fel and the stormtroopers of the Imperial 501st Legion, and Dean Jinzler and his Chiss companions - began to understand the Vagaari tactics and eliminate their threat.

Rumors surrounded him, claiming he was a terrorist on his home planet or a commando for some unknown military unit. Peck and his team were sent to Rafft shortly before the Battle of Yavin, to sabotage an Imperial garrison there. However, a homing beacon placed on their ship gave them away, and they had to be rescued by Dannen Lifehold. Commander Peck disliked Lifehold as if he were a common mercenary, mainly because woman he loved - Beka Lewis - had been killed by mercenaries several years earlier. (SWJ3)

Peckhum
this older, long-haired man was a freighter pilot who regularly ran supplies to Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy on Yavin 4 during the early years of the New Republic. Peckhum was the owner of the battered old supply ship, the Lightning Rod. He befriended the boy Zekk, whom he discovered after a supply run to the devastated world of Ennth. He and took him in and cared for him, and eventually made Zekk his apprentice. When Peckhum discovered Zekk's affinity for the Force, he allowed the boy to join the Jedi Academy, and continued to make his supply runs. The New Republic realized that Peckhum's services to the Academy were invaluable, and so they gave him a newer supply ship to replace the aging Lightning Rod. He, in turn, bequeathed the old ship to Zekk, when the boy decided to strike out on his own. (HTF, LO, SHA, AQ)

Pecoppi Parrot
this brightly-colored bird was just barely sentient, and individuals could interact through a crude form of language. Because they were considered exotic pets by many wealthy beings, the pecoppi were often sold at animal shows, despite the prohibition on slavery during the Old Republic. (CCW)

PED-21
this personal distress beacon was developed for use by civilian travelers by Saladar Systems, during the height of the Galactic Civil War.

Pedrin, Niall
this Imperial Major was placed in command of the garrison on Hargeeva for two reasons: his loyalty and adherence to the New Order, and his knowledge of geology. He was a lifetime officer who hated individuality and variety. A short, stocky man, Pedrin was a fintess fanatic and was always meticulously groomed, further indications of his obsessive/compulsive personality. In his early career with the Imperial military, Pedrin served as the commander of an AT-AT platoon before he was chosen for the position on Hargeeva. He made sure that the Alliance didn't get a foothold in Arginall City, and was known to have kidnapped the relatives of suspected Alliance sympathizers and sent them to labor camps. However, he was unable to catch his greatest opponent, Stevan Makintay, nor could he break Ketrian Altronel and make her reveal the location of Eyrie Base. He was scheduled to be demoted when Makintay captured him on Hargeeva, but the capture was part of Pedrin's master plan to redeem himself. He had placed a tracking device in his arm, which allowed his forces to track his location. His plan succeeded, but Pedrin himself was imprisoned on an Alliance penal colony. (SWJ8, SWJ10)

Slythor installed the captain's chair from a Victory-class Star Destroyer for his throne. (OE)

Peez Bonko
this male Gran was a prisoner at the Oovo IV prison facility during the years surrounding the Battle of Naboo. Bonko was also the leader of a Gran supremacy group that attempted to forcibly enhance the standing and position of various Gran in the prisons. This didn't sit well with the non-Gran prisoners at Oovo IV, and word of Bonko's violence and hatred of aliens eventually reached the outside galaxy. A group called Freedom for the Incarcerated eventually decided to place a bounty on Bonko's head, in the event that he was ever freed from prison. The group didn't have to wait that long, as Jango Fett caputred Bonko and claimed the bounty during his "rescue" of Bendix Fust. (BH)

this Sedrian was the leader of the city of Fitsay, and the son of the high priest Cardo. A priest in his own right, Pek believed that the Golden Sun was a gift to all Sedrians, a belief that went against his father's own beliefs. When a group of Alliance agents came to Sedri to rescue Mors Odrion, Pek believed that they were on the planet to help the Sedrians, not interfere with them. Again, this went against Cardo's belief, and Cardo ordered Pek to stay away from them. Pek, however, chose to do what he thought was right for the people of Fitsay, and led the agents to the Imperial garrison. They also discovered the location of Karak's base, and discovered the Fala was working with her father. After revealing that Karak and Commander Aban were working to claim the Golden Sun for themselves, Fala decided to move against her father and joined forces with Pek and the Alliance agents. They were able to defeat Karak by helping the Golden Sun scatter itself across the surface of Sedri, breaking Karak's power and leaving him defenseless.

this flying creature is native to the swamps of the planet Naboo. It has a 2.5-meter-long body, supported by two rear legs, a long tail, and a pair of leathery wings. Its front legs were located at the first joint of the wing, but are quite small and nearly useless. Its head is dominated by a large, thick lower beak, which it uses to dig for its food. The skin of the peko-peko was fairly toxic, and caused stomach pains an vomiting in many creatures which tried to eat it. The peko-peko was admired by the Gungan people for its beauty and its blood, which contains a powerful anti-venom. Many Gungans have captured individual peko-peko for display in their parks, as they were beautifully colored with indigo-sapphire plumage bordered with yellow. The blood of the peko-peko was discovered to be a powerful anti-toxin to the poisons formed from refined green glie. The peko-peko is known to be an excellent mimic, using its well-developed vocal apparatus to lure its prey closer. The Gungan people have a saying that goes, "If you see two peko-peko together, it is a good omen." (SW1, SON, WSW, SWDB)

Pekt
this Trandoshan was noted for his vehement hatred of Wookiees, even given his species' deep-seated hatred of their neighbors. He was schooled by his clan in the ways of slavery and hunting, and was even consulted by Bossk in the hunting and capture of Wookiees. Pekt was later recruited by the Empire, which needed a skilled bounty hunter to bring free Wookiees under control. During a mission in which Pekt and his mercenary Trandoshans captured an entire Wookiee village, a young Wookiee took Pekt in his arms and ripped off his arms. The Wookiee was executed for this, while Pekt returned to Trandosha to heal and regenerate his arms. When the Empire fully subjugated Kashyyyk, Pekt was called in to lead the effort to enslave the Wookiees and ensure a steady stream of labor for the construction of the first Death Star. (GB)

Over time, the natives of Pelagon built the space station Pelagia's Moon from the wreckage. (LOE)

Pelagia's Moon

Pelagon
this ocean-covered planet was the first world settled in Tapani Sector, more than 13,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. It was settled by the ships of the Pella Compact, which maintained government of the original colonies for a thousand years. Over the millennia, cities were built over the warm seas, and great continents were formed from manmade structures. Over time, the wastes of these cities began polluting the oceans, and by the advent of the New Order, the seas of Pelagon were unable to support life. As House Mecetti rose to power, power struggles led to the destruction of many of these cities, further littering the oceans with debris. There were rumors that the ruins of many floating cities were protected by the spirits of the ancient Jedi Knights. Note that the Players Guide to Tapani also refers to this planet as Pelagia. (LOE, PGT)

this was the only permanent settlement established by the Korunnai of the planet Haruun Kal. It was located atop the Korunnal Highland, and served as the planet's capital city. During the Clone Wars, the Balawai leadership of Pelek Baw sided with the Separatists, a fact that rankled in the mind of Jedi Master Mace Windu. His anger was crystallized into action when it was discovered that the Separatists had placed their droid control unit deep beneath the city, in a secure bunker. From this location, the Separatists were able to defend their positions in the Al'Har System, until Master Windu and his ragtag Korunnai forces managed to breach the bunker and shut the system down. During the battle, much of the city was leveled by fire from both sides of the battle, and witnesses said it resembled the caldera of a volcano afterward. (SHPT)

Pelekotan
this was the Korunnai word for the Force. Roughly translated into Basic, it meant "world-power." To the Korunnai, it meant "jungle-mind." Many Jedi Knights found that individuals with strong connections to the pelekotan of Haruun Kal were virtually indistinguishable from the surrounding jungle, since their power was drawn from the life of the jungle itself.

Pelemax
this jungled planet was located in the Colonies Region, and was the homeworld of the Pelemaxian race. (COG)

Pelemaxian
this ancient race was native to the planet Pelemax. (COG)

Pelgrin
this Outer Rim planet was once the homeworld of the Pelgrin race, which died out millions of years before the Old Republic discovered the planet. By the time of the Battle of Yavin, Pelgrin was devoid of any form of life, its surface a barren wasteland. What was unusual about Pelgrin was the complete lack of fossil evidence, making investigation into the planet's history virtually impossible. (PJSB)
