this hot-headed and impulsive Corellian was a competent sabacc player and pilot who lived on Nar Shaddaa during the early years of the New Order. He volunteered his piloting skills and his starship, the Take That!, to the defense of Nar Shaddaa when the Empire attacked the moon. However, his impulsive nature cost him his life when he jumped the gun during the counter-attack. The Nar Shaddaa command post issued an order, which Iniro thought was "Prepare to engage." In actuality, all Iniro heard was "Prepare to..." before he leapt into battle. This left him stranded and alone against the Carrack-class cruisers making up the picket line. The cruisers ripped the Take That! apart with turbolaser fire in no time. (THG)

Wedge and his forces retook Borleias from the Yuuzhan Vong invaders, then made a break with the surviving members of the New Republic Advisory Council. In order to ensure that the forces on Borleias were not corrupted by political or alien elements, Wedge only admitted his most trusted allies to the Inner Circle. Among the original members were his wife, Iella, Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade Skywalker, Tycho Celchu, Lando Calrisian, Booster Terrik, Danni Quee, Gavin Darklighter, and Corran Horn. In one of their earliest meetings, General Antilles called the New Republic "a dead, oversizing hulk with a decentralized nervous system, whose extremities don't realize that its heart isn't beating anymore." (EL1)

Inner Council
this ruling body of the New Republic began existence as the primary circle of leaders within the Provisional Council.

Both areas of the galaxy were located along the border between the Outer Rim Territories and the area of the Unknown Regions known as Wild Space. The Inner Zuma was made up of three galactic sectors: Moddell, Spar, and Ablajeck. Much of the Inner Zuma was uncharted until about 1,000 years before the Battle of Yavin. Several centuries before the Battle of Yavin, the Inner and Outer Zuma regions were considered part of the Unknown Regions, until explorers began scouting their locations and pushing the boundaries of known space ever outward. However, eddies and sinkholes in the hyperspace continuum in the area led to many lost expeditions and the formation of exceptionally dangerous travel routes. (GMR9)

Innerdome Arena
this sporting venue was located on Nwarcol Point, along the Sisar Run. (SSR)

Innis, Tarn
this graduate of the Imperial Academy was considered too average to ever assume command. He was given a position in the Supply branch of the military, where he eventually earned the command of the Shallow March Supply Post shortly before the Battle of Yavin.

Insiders
this was the term used by the military forces serving under Wedge Antilles at the Borleias base, just after the Battle of Coruscant, to describe the Inner Circle. Most people believed that the Insiders and the Inner Circle were purely military advisors, and Wedge worked hard to keep the true nature of the Inner Circle a secret. The secret was maintained for many months, even after the New Republic regrouped on Mon Calamari and Cal Omas was elected the new Chief of State. (EL1, DW)

Danaan Kerr was rumored to have performed dark magics in this sector, shortly after the Battle of Endor. (WBC)

Insulfiber
this fibrous, insulating material was used by many hives of the Colony as the basis for exoskeletons that could withstand brief exposures to vaccum. Used especially by the pilots of the Great Swarm, insulfiber was laminated into the chitin of their carapaces, strengthening the shells and allowing them to keep a member of the Kind safe in space. (DN1)

Insulfoam
this heat-reflective material was used to insulate buildings and perishable cargoes. (LO)

Insurrection
this branch of the Pentastar Alignment's Chamber of Order was established to ensure that the New Republic was unable to reclaim any former Imperial star systems. Moff Ardus Kaine feared that the fragmented Empire, in the wake of the Battle of Endor, had become too worried about confronting the Republic with direct force, and established the Insurrection branch to use deception and misinformation to ensure the Republic received false and incomplete information. (SWJ3)

INT-66
although official known as a transport ship, the Corellian Engineering Corporation's INT-66 essentially a heavy interceptor craft. At fifty meters in length, it was larger than a starfighter but nearly as maneuverable.

Integrity
this Old Republic Carrack-class light cruiser was the flagship of the fleet dispatched to Belderone, some thirty-six months after the Battle of Geonosis, in an effort to capture the leaders of the Confederacy on Independent Systems. Commanded by Lorth Needa, the Integrity was later recalled to Coruscant and assigned to Home Fleet Strike Group Five during the First Battle of Coruscant. (LEV, E3N)

Intellex
this was one of the few datafiles from the old Industrial Intelligence computer banks which was decrypted following the corporation's merger with Automata Galactica.

Most members of the Intendant caste have skills from other castes, augmenting their already formidable abilities. They were the curators of Yuuzhan Vong commerce and trade, and were responsible for overseeing the Yuuzhan Vong slaving operations as well as ensuring that the general population remained passive. Among the Intendants, there were four distinct divisions: High Prefect, Prefect, Consul, and Executor. (SWDB, NJOSB, UF, UFCD)

Interceptor

Interceptor-class Light Freighter
this small class of triangular freighters was first manufactured by Arakyd, with the Helix Interceptor. (SWJ5)

Interchip
this small device processes the transfer of credits from one party to another. When a being purchases something from a merchant, the merchant enters the cost into the interchip. The being then inserts their own credit voucher, and the interchip debits their account the correct number of credits before depositing them into the merchant's account. Payment between two individuals can also be accomplished the same way. (GG2)

Interdiction Field
the name used to describe any gravimetric force field that simulates the presence of mass in open space or hyperspace. The field can be a small, powerful, planet-sized field, similar to those generated by the Interdictor-class starships; or, it can be a huge, system-wide field similar to that used by Thrackan Sal-Solo to seal off the Corellian Sector just following his secession from the New Republic. (AC)

Interdictor-class Cruiser
Interdictor-class ships are equipped with four gravity-wave generators to simulate large (planet-sized) masses. These are useful for a number for things, such as for trapping fleeing spacecraft and for bringing ships out of hyperspace at a specific point is real space. (DFR, ISB)

Interechoic Micrometer
a sensititive device which uses sound waves to measure the thickness of metals, especially starship hulls. (COJ)

Interface Band
this was an ancient form of the cyborg construct, which wrapped around a being's skull and provided a mental interface to a computer system. (KOTOR)

Interface Visor
this ancient device was created during the decades leading up to the Great Sith War, and allowed a user to have a mental and visual interface to the electronic systems common to security, demolitions, and general computing functions. (KOTOR)

Interfacing System Bridge
known as a patch, this computer device allows the user to bypass the entry protocols in order to quickly access the central computer. Most often used by tech teams and Imperial technicians, these devices are incredibly helpful when a component is damaged or a subsystem is breached, and the problem might result in a system-wide failure. The techs don't have time to enter in all their security information, and can use the patch to simply correct the problem. The Alliance discovered that these patches could also be used to mask an intrusion into an Imperial computer system, allowing the saboteurs to place a virus or tag without being detected. (SWJ10)

InterFlux
manufacturers of one of the most popular water-making systems for starships. (SS)

InterGalactic Banking Clan
based on the planet Muunilinst, this was one of the galaxy's largest, and most profitable, financial institutions of the Old Republic during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. The IBC (other referred to it as the IGBC) had been around for generations at this time, having served the Old Republic throughout most of its history. The first known transcation made by the IBC was the funding of the human colony on Sartinaynian. It made considerable profits through the development and manufacture of currency exchange technologies and infrastructures, especially when many planets throughout the galaxy began to think about seceding from the Republic. The desire on these worlds to have their own currency meant that IBC could step in and help them manage their new currency as well as maintain an up-to-the-minute valuation of the new currency against the Republic Credit. The financial backing for these new currencies came from the rich natural resources of Muunlinst itself, as the smoker volcanoes that dotted its surface continually disgorged valuable ores and minerals for mining. As the Clone Wars engulfed the galaxy, the IBC continued to make a profit by providing financial services to both the Republic and the Separatists. The IBC also financed the resurrection of Durge and General Grievous, actions which San Hill believed made Darth Sidious indebted to the clan. In the upheaval of the Clone Wars and the transition to the New Order, the IBC continued to do business with the galaxy, although much of its operation was nominally controlled by the Empire. While this rankled the government's leaders, it also ensured that the IBC remained the galaxy's pre-eminent financial institution. With the death of Emperor Palpatine at the Battle of Endor, the IBC became the guarantors of the fledgling New Republic, despite protests from the surviving Imperial leaders. The leaders of the IBC correctly reasoned that Imperial grousing amounted to nothing, since any actions by the Imperial Remnant would only devalue the Imperial credit. (COD, AOTCN, HNN4, SWDB, VD3, GORW)

Intergalactic Communications Center
this was the primary communications nexus maintained by the Old Republic, during the decades leading up the Clone Wars. It served as the primary hub for communications going into and out of the Core Worlds, despite the fact that this was a potential liability. This liability was exposed during the Clone Wars, when Separatist forces led by Pors Tonith first blockaded Praesitlyn before landing their troops and overrunning the small Republic defense forces. The communications center was quickly captured, despite the best efforts of Zozridor Slayke and his soldiers. The facility was eventually liberated from the Separatists by a Republic task force led by Nejaa Halcyon and Anakin Skywalker, although only a dangerous mission by Skywalker managed to preserve both the facility and its support staff. (JT)

Intergalactic Droid Agency
a company that matches unowned or manumitted droids to the needs of businesses and individuals throughout the galaxy. (MDCAR, DCAR)

Intergalactic Federation of Musicians
