Jhonems, Wil
this man served as a marketing manager for the Spotts TradeChip Company, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars.

His plans were met with stern opposition from the Jedi Council, however. (HNN5)

once located in the city of D'larah, Jhonterius Park was a small, yet beautiful, refuge on the planet Demophon. It was the home of the D'larah palm tree. While very beautiful to behold, much of the crime that took place in D'larah was committed in the Park after dark. (SN)

Jhordvar
this Noghri assassin was employed, for a brief time, by Jabba the Hutt, during the height of the Clone Wars. When Jhordvar tried to betray Jabba, the crimelord dispatched thirteen-year-old Boba Fett to bring him to justice. Fett found Jhordvar in Tatooine's Dune Sea, and defeated him in combat. The fighting led to Jhordvar's death, and Fett returned to Jabba with just his hands. Because a sandstorm had hit the area during the fighting, young Fett was forced to hole up in Jhordvar's hideout, leaving Jhordvar's body outside. The wind and sand stripped much of it to bare bone, and the only thing left to identify Jhordvar was the ring he wore on his finger. (BF5)

Jhorn, Pfilbee
this Imperial Sergeant was requisitioned for Emperor Palpatine's second expeditionary mission to Endor. The first returned with poor overall reporting, and Palpatine wanted more information. Jhorn was placed in the position of records officer, a role he did not relish. His report was bitter and resentful in tone, a fact not missing or ignored by the Emperor.

Ji, Phow
this man, a native of Bunduki and a member of the Followers of Palawa, was an expert in the martial art of teras kasi. Phow Ji won the tournament in Aslaja, just before the onset of the Clone Wars, defeating the Jedi Knight Joclad Danva in a 47-minute fight. It didn't matter to Phow Ji that Danva had detached himself from the Force for the fight; Ji just knew that he had bested a Jedi Knight in hand-to-hand combat. This only made his considerably large ego even bigger, and he often strutted around looking for a fight, just to prove his skills. At the height of the Clone Wars, some two years after the Battle of Geonosis, Phow Ji was hired by the Grand Army of the Republic to serve as a combat instructor on the planet Drongar. He was given the rank of Lieutenant and assigned to the military hospital known as Rimsoo Seven, where he found himself confronted with two worthy adversaries: Admiral Tarnese Bleyd and Jedi Padawan Barriss Offee. His mystique was quickly established when he defeated Usu Cley without breaking a sweat, but a captured holovid of his unprovoked killing of three Salissian mercenaries caught the ire of the doctors as well as Den Dhur. The Sullustan reporter, having been deprived of a scathing expose' on Filba the Hutt, chose to craft an article on Phow Ji's wanton disregard for life. Den Dhur portrayed him as an evil murderer, but his editors rewrote the article after learning the the Salissians had been working for Count Dooku. In the end, Phow Ji was painted as a hero of the Republic. After the Salissian incident, Barriss Offee found that she hated Phow Ji, an emotion that rose to the surface very quickly. Phow Ji recognized this, and took every opportunity to taunt the young Padawan. Offee was forced to swallow her pride, however, when she found Phow Ji on the battlefield near Rimsoo Seven. He had been fighting a squad of Salissians, and had defeated them all. Unknown to both, however, another enemy was hidden in the jungles, and managed to impale Phow Ji with a poisoned dart. Offee could not let another being die in front of her, no matter how badly she hated him, and she drew on the Force to remove the poison from his system. Unfortunately, Phow Ji took the Padawan's actions as a slight, and recklessly plunged into another battle in a fit of berserk rage. Without backup and still recovering, Phow Ji was quickly overrun by Salissian mercenaries. However, rather than dying alone, Phow Ji extracted a large grenade and detonated it in his hand, killing the Salissians and himself as well. The news of his reckless act was twisted by the reporters of the Old Republic and portrayed as a heroic act that had far-reaching benefits for the war effort. (HNN5, MBS, MJH)

Jia, Kvarm

Jib Kopatha
this Bothan crimelord and information broker was one of many minor underworld figures who were active during the height of the New Order. He ran his small operation from Void Station, a wondrous fortress built on the surface of a remote asteroid. The forces of the Empire made frequent use of Jib's services, until his information began to grow unreliable. Darth Vader was dispatched to ensure Jib's continued cooperation and loyalty to the Empire, which could be demonstrated if Jib could obtain viable information on the Alliance forces that destroyed the first Death Star. Jib feared for his own life, given that he had only a short period of time to obtain the information Vader wanted. Luckily, Sheel Odala came to him with an offer to repay the debt show owed him: she would provide Han Solo as a means of erasing the debt. Jib's Trandoshan thugs captured Solo, and brought him to Kopatha for interrogation. Solo proved to be much stronger than Kopatha's interrogation expert, Choba, had anticipated, and Kopatha decided that he would be better off just turning Solo over to Vader for further interrogation. It was then that Sheel and Chewbacca rescued Solo, leaving Kopatha to face Vader's wrath. He tried to talk his way out the situation, claiming that he had Solo under interrogation but managed to lose him. Vader was not pleased, and beheaded Kopatha with a single arc of his lightsaber. (SWEV, SWEIA)

Jigani Port
this was the primary spaceport located on the planet Desevro, located on a rocky outcropping above Maslovar and the Swamplands. This location kept it away from the bustle of the city, allowing offworld visitors to get their bearings before venturing into Maslovar. Most of the starship berths were situated atop stone pillars that were carved from the bedrock of the planet, while others seemed to have been cobbled together from older pillars that had fallen over the millennia. Rope bridges connected the berths to the main facility, and spiral staircases carved into the pillars allowed visitors to reach the city itself. (GORW)

However, in order to ensure Basso's success, Jiir and his men were forced to prolong their firefight with the Imperials. Jiir was shot and killed in the fight. (SWEP)

Jiivahar
this tree-dwelling species of hairless simians was native to the planet Carest 1. Their form appeared to be lanky and ungraceful, but the jiivahar were exceptionally limber, and moved through the thykar trees with ease. Their fingers and toes were very long, made for grasping branches, and secrete sarvin to help them hold onto them. Their skulls were flattened and elongated, with large eyes. Their skeletons were hollow, making them very light for their size. There were no written laws in Jiivahar society, but every individual was compelled to act according to the needs of the community. (AE)

Jijite
this small, insect-like reptile was native to the open plains of the planet Ansion. They lived in large hives, burrowing into the ground to live among, and feed on, the root systems of the grasses which populated the plains. The jijite workers built tall, stony pillars from miniscule pebbles and an extruded form of mortar, which served to vent warm air from the tunnels below as well as lookout positions for jijite sentries. These pillars were incredibly strong, and could withstand the blunt assault of a kyren flock. (APS)

Ji'kata
this Em'liy was distinguished in the history of the planet Shalyvane. (UANT)

Jik'Tal
this Jawa was the leader of the group hired by Yin Vocta to serve as private security agents at the Bantha Traxx establishment on Lianna. The Jawas were trained by the Rodian mercenary Ne'Chak, who owed Vocta a favor. Jik'Tal had craved adventure as a youth, and eas eventually banished from his tribe to violating its policy of non-violence. Seven other members of the clan left with him, leaving Tatooine behind on the first transport and ending up on Lianna. (WSV)

Jiktha
this male Jawa was a junk peddler who worked near Mos Espa, on the planet Tatooine, during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. Jabba the Hutt issued a bounty for his capture after servant droid he purchased from Jiktha proved to be faulty, and Jiktha refused to refund the Hutt's credits. This bounty was eventually claimed by Jango Fett, who was on Tatooine trying to arrange a meeting with Jabba. (BH)

Jiliac Desilijic Tiron
this huge Hutt was Jabba's uncle, and was the leader of the Desilijic kajidic during the early years of the New Order. He maintained a vast estate on Nal Hutta, known as the Winter Palace, and was the de facto ruler of the planet Dilbana. Early in the reign of Emperor Palpatine, Jiliac and Jabba were in the business of supplying raw spice to Zavval and Teroenza for processing on Ylesia. They also hired pirates to waylay transport ships from Ylesia which carried the processed spice, thereby obtaining sellable goods for nothing. When Zavval died on Ylesia, Jiliac and Jabba were forced into a series of confrontations with Aruk and Durga. In the midst of these battles, Jiliac became pregnant and became a female. After the birth of her baby, Jiliac became so wrapped up with maternal instincts that Jabba feared Desilijic would be taken over. Jiliac retained her sharp intellect, though, but sometimes failed to understand Jabba's devious plans. They successfully lobbied at the Hutt Grand Council to penalize clan Besadii for its monopolization of the spice market, but this incurred Durga the Hutt's wrath. Durga challenged Jiliac to combat under the Old Law, and the younger Hutt prevailed. During the battle, Jabba also murdered Jiliac's offspring, leaving Jabba alone as Deslijic's leader. Note that the Hutt! Hutt! Hutt! feature on the Wizards of the Coast website (www.wizards.com) indicates that Jiliac was actually Jabba's father, and that Jabba was his oldest offspring. (TPS, THG, RD, WOTC)

Jinart
this odd woman joined Birhan's family as a domestic worker shortly after the Battle of Geonosis. Jinart performed many duties for Birhan's family, although none of them remembered where she came from or how she came to work for them. This was primarily because Jinart wasn't actually human. In fact, Jinart was one of the many disguises adopted by the Gurlanin known as Jinart, during her assistance to Darman and Etain Tur-Mukan. (RCHC)

Jinart
this Gurlanin and her consort, Valaqil, were part of a large group of Gurlanin who agreed to assist the forces of the Old Republic in removing the Separatists who had taken control of their homeworld of Qiilura, during the early stages of the Clone Wars. Valaqil was part of the initial intelligence gathering team, along with Jedi Master Kast Fulier and his Padawan, Etain Tur-Mukan. Jinart remained in the field, and managed to track Tur-Mukan to the homestead of Birhan. She assumed the guise of an elderly woman and joined Birhan's clan as a domestic worker, until she could make contact with Tur-Mukan and let her know about the presence of Darman in the nearby woods. Jinart then helped the pair rendezvous with the rest of Omega Squad. She then disappeared into the forests, returning only briefly with information Hokan's movements. While she was in the fields, Jinart left behind signs that falsely indicated that there were other squads of clone commandos on Qiilura, in an effort to fool Hokan into believing he was dealing with a larger assault force. She also agreed to help with the final assault planned by Omega Squad, and assumed the guise of a human child to infiltrate Lik Ankkit's villa and place several explosives deep inside the building. After Ovolot Qail Uthan was captured- with much assistance from Jinart - she commanded Etain Tur-Mukan to remember her assistance, as well as that of other Gurlanin, so that the Gurlanin people would be left free to pursue their own civilization. (RCHC)

Jing
this young boy was one of the many miners who worked on Katanos VII, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. He had been taught that the Jedi Knights were powerful magicians, who could use their connection to the Force to rip out a person's mind. Jing was sent with his father, Andru, to greet Jedi Master Lunis and his apprentice, Obs Kaj, when the pair traveled to Katanos VII to investigate a possible link to the Separatist plan to produce clones. When the Jedi discovered the hidden cloning facility on the planet, Jing was eager to prove himself in battle. However, he was unprepared for the savage attacks of the other miners, and was killed in the fighting. (T19)

Jin'ha
this sinister, criminal organization was active during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. They were discovered by the Jedi Council to have been mining cortosis ore, in an effort to prepare themselves for an attack on the Jedi. Further investigation by Obi-Wan Kenobi revealed that the Jin'ha were, in fact, mining the cortosis ore for the Trade Federation. (SWI59)

Jinjang

Jin-Jin
this Outer Rim smuggler was trained at the Imperial Academy to be a TIE Fighter pilot, but botched one too many missions to remain in his commanding officer's good graces. Rather than face a courtmartial, he tried to steal a TIE Fighter. He was forced to hode aboard the Beggar's Solace, and was taken on a wild ride when the ship's hyperdrive motivator started acting up. Having escaped from Imperial service, Jin-Jin went to work as an independent mercenary, but his ineptitude continued to dog his career. He was forced to capture an entire royal family, after being witnessed trying to rescue their daughter from Imperial custody. When Jin-Jin won a fortune gambling on Mepha'as Prime, he sunk it all into real estate on Alderaan a week before the Empire destroyed the planet.

Jink
this was a common name among the Toydarian race. (WOTC, UANT)

Jinkins
this Bith was a known comrade of the Feeorin smuggler Nym. Jinkins was originally employed as an engineer with the Nubian Design Collective, where he was the lead engineer on the development of the Scurrg H-6 bomber. After the Naboo rejected the ship's design, and the Nubians scrapped the project entirely, Jinkins arranged with Nym to steal the only prototype and use it as their own vessel. With Nym, Jinkins served as a sensor and scanner operator aboard the newly renamed Havoc. Nym considered Jinkins the best engineer in the galaxy, rivalled only by the starshipswrights on Charros IV. He piloted the Freefall, a ship he described as a "freefall bomber." Jinkins remained with Nym for many decades, continuing to serve as a chief lieutenant after Nym assumed the leadership of Lok during the height of the New Order. (T7, GMR5, SWI65, NEGV, JSF)

Jinn, Qui-Gon
this Jedi Master was known as one of the order's most formidable members, but his recklessness and his devotion to seemingly inane causes kept him from becoming a member of the 12-being Jedi Council. Trained by a Master who had worked with students for 400 years, Qui-Gon was generally regarded as one of the best pure swordsmen the order had ever seen. Note that the HoloNetNew.com website claims Qui-Gon was trained by Count Dooku. However, Qui-Gon was also something of a maverick, and was unable to control his inner sense of purpose. His methods were a share contrast to one of his contemporaries, a woman named Tahl. They were friends during their training, and both achieved the level of Jedi Knight at about the same time. Qui-Gon wore his hair long in a tacit defiance of the Jedi order's rules. His control of the living Force was deep, although his abilities with the unifying Force were not as strong. After successfully training a Padawan apprentice, it was Qui-Gon who discovered the young boy named Xanatos, and brought him to Coruscant for training despite his age and spoiled nature. When the Council allowed Qui-Gon to take a Padawan, Qui-Gon chose Xanatos immediately. Qui-Gon either failed to - or chose not to - see Xanatos' many failings, regarding the boy's mistakes and growing anger as minor things, much the way a father would. In the end, this caused him great trouble. Shortly before Xanatos was to take the tests to determine his eligiblity to become a Jedi Knight, Master Yoda dispatched Qui-Gon and his Padawan to Telos, on an unspecific mission. While there, Qui-Gon was confronted with Xanatos' treachery in the attack on a neighboring world. Qui-Gon was forced to kill Xanatos' father, Crion, in a battle, and earned Xanatos' unending hatred from that point on. The youth fled, and Qui-Gon was left to return to Coruscant without a Padawan. He claimed that Xanatos had been killed in battle, and vowed never to take another Padawan again. He continued to interview new students, but always left without choosing an apprentice. Years later, he was charged by Master Yoda to travel to the planet Bandomeer and assist the government there in negotiating a mining treaty. The trip put him in close quarters with young Obi-Wan Kenobi, whom he had recently passed up as a Padawan apprentice. They were then drawn into the schemes of Xanatos, who hoped to exact revenge on Qui-Gon by killing him on Bandomeer. During their missions, which suddenly became a single mission, Qui-Gon realized that he and Obi-Wan were closely meshed with the Force. During their escape from Xanatos' trap in the ionite mines, Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan became linked in the Force, something that was only meant to happen to a Master and his apprentice. After their escape, Qui-Gon realized that Obi-Wan was not to be taken lightly, and he took the boy as his Padawan learner. Together, they explored the Force for some twelve years before the Trade Federation invaded the peaceful world of Naboo. It was during this time that Qui-Gon pledged his life to the now-Jedi Master Tahl, during their mission to New Apsolon. Unfortunately, Tahl was captured by Balog and tortured until she could barely survive. Qui-Gon was able to rescue her, but the best medical care on New Apsolon was unable to save her life. For many months, Qui-Gon felt broken and out of synch with the galaxy, as his heart mourned the loss of the woman who "made him whole." More than a decade after Tahl's death on New Apsolon, Supreme Chancellor Valorum asked that a team of Jedi be dispatched to negotiate with the Neimoidians, so Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan were sent to Naboo. There, they became entangled in the intricate web being woven by Darth Sidious. Their mission quickly changed to the protection of Queen Amidala, whom they planned to transport to Coruscant for an appeal to the Senate. Their ship sustained large amounts of damage in clearing the Trade Federation blockade, and they were forced to land on Tatooine to repair the ship. While on the planet, Qui-Gon discovered the existence of young Anakin Skywalker. A check of the boy's blood revealed an incredibly high concentration of midi-chlorians, and after learning of Shmi Skywalker's description of Anakin's conception, he believed that he had found the prophecied Chosen One. He also discovered the existence of Darth Maul, and barely escaped from the Sith Lord. He brought Anakin before the Jedi Council, but was sternly rebuffed for his impertinence. Instead, they were all sent back to Naboo to protect Amidala in her attempt to break the Trade Federation blockade on her own. While the Queen succeeded, Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan were forced to confront Darth Maul again. In an epic battle within the Theed palace's power station, Qui-Gon was separated from Obi-Wan by the power plant's security lasers. Forced to battle the Sith Lord on his own, Qui-Gon was physically unable to compete. Darth Maul was able to stun Qui-Gon before killing the Jedi Master with a quick jab of his double-bladed lightsaber, while Obi-Wan looked on helplessly. Obi-Wan was able to defeat Darth Maul once freed from the lasers, but was too late to save his Master. Obi-Wan held Qui-Gon as he died, vowing to continue his Master's dream of training young Anakin Skywalker. Some ten years later, when Anakin Skywalker murdered a clan of Tusken Raiders on Tatooine after the death of his mother, Yoda seemed to hear Qui-Gon's disembodied voice on Coruscant. This contradicted the very nature of death, since a Jedi was supposed to lose their identity when they joined with the Force. Qui-Gon's voice troubled Yoda for many years, until Anakin Skywalker fell to the Dark Side of the Force and became Darth Vader. Qui-Gon's spirit reappeared to Yoda, and explained that he had learned of a way to become one with the Force yet still retain the ability to influence the physical world. Qui-Gon's spirit then explained the teachings of the Whills to Yoda and Obi-Wan, to ensure that they would be able to help Anakin fulfill his destiny as the Chosen One.

this was a notorious band of alien pirates which was operative during the height of the Galactic Civil War. A band of Jinwa Raiders was defeated by a shipful of droids, when C-3PO and R2-D2 were forced to pilot an Alliance transport to Ladro. The pirates' attack killed the small command crew, but the droids managed to avoid capture and reach Ladro unharmed. (T8)

Jinzler, Dean
the youngest of four children raised on Coruscant, Jinzler was a silver-haired man once worked for Talon Karrde as an information specialist, during the years following the cease-fire between the Imperial Remnant and the New Republic. He was a middle-aged man in his sixties, with no specific training but with a wide range of knowledge on many subjects. Jinzler was hired at a point in Karrde's history when his information sharing operation was growing faster than he could handle, and Jinzler was one of possibly many agents who weren't at all loyal to Karrde. When a message was received at Comra through Karrde's network from Voss Parck on Nirauan, but was addressed to Luke Skywalker, Jinzler stole the message and fled Comra. Karrde managed to learn of the theft, however, since Jinzler's disappearance coincided with the message's theft. Karrde also learned that Jinzler had specifically requested a transfer to Comra just eight weeks earlier, which was too much of a coincidence to ignore. Karrde set out to locate Jinzler, while Luke set off for Nirauan. However, it was Luke who found Jinzler first, when Jinzler was introduced as the New Republic's Ambassador on the mission to recover the remains of the Outbound Flight Project. He conned Aristocra Formbi into believing he was actually a representative of the Republic in order to gain access to Outbound Flight. Underneath his charade, Jinzler wanted to learn more about his older sister, Lorana, who he had hated because she was a Jedi and not him. However, after spending time with Evlyn Tabory aboard Outbound Flight, Jinzler came to realize that his hatred was nothing more than jealousy, that his parents had loved all their children equally. Even after Lorana's lightsaber was destroyed in the attempt to retake control of the D-Four Dreadnaught from Estosh and the Vagaari, Jinzler found himself finally at peace with his sister's memory. She had died trying to save Outbound Flight, and that was all that mattered. In the aftermath of the mission, Jinzler decided to accompany the survivors of Outbound Flight to Nirauan, so that he could be with Rosemari Tabory and her daughter, Evlyn. (SQ)

Jinzler, Lorana
this young woman, the third of four children, was the sister of Dean Jinzler. Two years older than Dean, Lorana was also one of the dozen Jedi Knights who were assigned to the Outbound Flight Project, shortly before the onset of the Clone Wars. She died when Outbound Flight was attacked by Thrawn, while attempting to save the civilian population of the ship from certain death. Her lightsaber was recovered from among the debris and bodies Luke Skywalker and his wife, Mara Jade Skywalker, found on the bridge of the D-One Dreadnaught. At the time, they believed it was Jorus C'baoth's blade, but Dean Jinzler confirmed it was Lorana's.

He again encountered Vader several years later on the planet Aridus, where he had been hiding from the Empire. During this time, Jix had befriended the native Chubbits. When Vader was nearly killed in the explosion of the Iron Tower, Jix found him and would have killed the Dark Lord in revenge, but decided against it rather than risk the wrath of the Empire. Jix loaded Vader's body onto a starship and set out to deliver him, but Vader awoke and realized the situation. He offered Jix the chance to return to Aridus without fear of Imperial pursuit if he agreed to do whatever the Dark Lord needed. Jix was forced to agree to the deal, and he became an effective agent of Vader's. In this capacity, Jix exposed the liaison between Frija and Admiral Droon. Jix was later infiltrated into Jabba the Hutt's organization following the Dark Lord's failure to capture Luke Skywalker on Cloud City. Vader instructed Jix to become one of Jabba's swoop gang members, and to capture Luke when he arrived on Tatooine to plan the rescue of Han Solo.
