Maramere
this blue-green planet, the primary world in the Karthakk System, was controlled by the Trade Federation during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo. It was in orbit around this planet that Vana Sage managed to capture the Feeroin smuggler Nym, shortly before the Battle of Naboo. Maramere was covered almost entirely with water, with rocky spires and outcroppings forming the only land. The native species, the Mere, built wondrous cities in and among the rocks, but also lived underwater. Six years after the Battle of Naboo, a group of freedom fighters led by Sol Sixxa began to fight the oppression of the Trade Federation. With the help of the Feeorin Nym, the Meres were able to overthrow the Trade Federation and reclaim control of the planet. It thrived for many years as a resort world, until the Clone Wars put a stop to much of the galaxy's vacation travel. (T7, CRBN, O, JSF)

Marasa Nebula
this vast expanse of space-borne gases cut off the planet Marasai from the rest of the galaxy for many millennia. It forces the Trellen Trade Route to make a wide detour around it, for it effectively cuts off hyperspace travel. 13 star systems are located within the Nebula, including the Marasai System. The Empire enslaved the Marasan race, hoping to use captive Marasans to shorten the path around the Nebula by using travel nodes known only to the Marasan. (GG12)

Marasai
this planet is the homeworld of the Marasan race, and is located within the Marasa Nebula. It has a gentle, temperate ecology, but its seasonal changes are unpredictable due to its proximity to the Nebula. (GG12)

Marasan
a race of cyborged sentients originating from the Marasa Nebula, the Marasans are large marsupials with thick bodies and long, spindly arms. They walk on two short, muscular legs, and have two sensory appendages in addition to two eyes and a mouth on their flat faces. All Marasans wear a thin, metallic implant wrapped around the backs of their heads. The implant was originally developed to help the Marasans navigate through the chaos of the Marasa Nebula, and evolved into a device which controlled certain autonomic and natural functions. They are a slow-moving race, but their implants allow them to think and communicate electronically. This allows them rapid access to information, and provides nearly instantaneous answers. Their interpersonal skills are lacking, however, when they have to deal with other races. The Marasan race originated on the planet Marasai, and developed the ability to travel through space on their own. Using strange anchorpoints - similar to jump gates, but known only to the cyborged Marasans - within the Marasa Nebula, they were able to travel to 20 colony worlds. This ability was desired by the Empire, which sought a way to shorten the Trellen Trade Route. They forced the Marasans to assist in the movement of Imperial starships through the Nebula by torutring them. The Empire developed a device which could send out immense electromagnetic waves tuned to the Marasan cyborg implants. The resulting pain could be spread out across nearly the entire Nebula, were the Marasans to disobey Imperial orders. The Alliance was powerless to assist: to incite the Marasans to rebellion would bring down the wrath of the Imperial wave device, while the willful stranding of Imperial ships in the Nebula would bring on the power of the Imperial fleet. (GG12)

He demanded to know where Nute Gunray was, refusing to acknowledge Findos' ability to control the Federation until an orderly succession of power could be realized. When Findos signed the treaty that nationalized the Federation under the new Galactic Empire, Vooro vowed to bring the Federation's remaining military power to bear against any Imperial actions against Federation-held worlds. (SWI84)

Marauder
a race of humanoid reptiles living on Endor, the Marauders were descended from Sanyassan ancestors who were stranded on the moon several centuries before the Battle of Yavin. They had a fortress hidden in the rocky wastes of the moon, and were trapped there for a number of years. They evolved into a vicious race, often waylaying visitors to the planet and stealing their technology. They obtained a number of laser weapons in this manner, and sustained themselves by eating the beings they ensnare. Like the Sanyassans, the Marauders had strange, simian faces, scaled skin, and sparse tufts of hair. They had three fingers and an opposable thumb on each hand. They wore makeshift armor created from the scraps they scavenge. The strongest Marauder was declared the King. Terak was the Marauder King when Noa and Salek crashed on Endor, as well as when the Towani family landed on the moon. Terak was obsessed with finding "The Power," which he hoped would allow the Marauders to conquer more than just the simple life forms of Endor. (BFE, SWI65, UANT, SWDB)

They are armed with eight double turbolasers, with an option to add four more turbolasers with a larger power generator. Three tractor beam projectors allow the Marauder-class to capture smaller ships. A wing of IRD starfighters can also be housed in its fighter bay. The Marauder-class cruiser was manned by a crew of 129, with 48 gunners and room to transport up to 40 troops. The Old Republic opted not to purchase the ship for government use, and the fledgling Corporate Sector stepped in to buy them. Once the ships showed up in Corporate Sector space, other planetary governments began to submit orders to the RSS plant on Lianna. The Marauder-class quickly became one of RSS most recent successes, although the ship eventually found its way into the hands of smuggler and pirates. Corporate Sector Marauder-class cruisers were deployed in pairs, along with a Victory-class Star Destroyer and Invincible-class cruisers for system control. (HSL, EGV, SOG, NEGC)

Marca
this swamp planet was the homeworld of the Sekct species. Because of the existence of a Dynamic Synergetics Incorporated hyperbaride production facility on the planet, the Empire had all records of Marca erased from planetary databases, in order to use the planet as they saw fit. The hyperbaride production was lethal to the native Sekct, and their species was nearly wiped out. A team of Alliance agents, on their way to Sumitra Sector, cut through the Marcellus Nebula and was forced to land on the planet. The team eventually brought down the hyperbaride plant, with the help of the Sertim sisters and the Sekct, and helped free the Sekct from its toxic wastes. The planet itself is covered with a swamp-filled ocean, with virtually no continental land mass, and measured some 12,000 kilometers in diameter. The heat of the planet, combined with its swampy surface, generated a continual shroud of mist which enveloped the planet. The mists collected and dispersed sunlight, making it appear as if Marca had no day/night schedule, just a perpetual hazy gloom. The year on Marca was measured as 340 standard days. (POM)

Mark 7 Tractor Beam Generator
this generator was developed following the Battle of Endor. (BTS)

Mark I
this was Aratech's ion blaster weapon, developed for use by armed forced that regularly faced droid armies. Known as the Scrambler, the Mark I produced an intense blast of highly-charged ion energy, that could scramble the neural networks of most battle droids. (KOTOR2)

Mark I Bulk Transport
this 50-meter-long starship was manufactured by Sienar Ships during the Old Republic. It was a bullet-shaped craft with some 40,000 metric tons of cargo capacity, despite its relatively small size. It required a crew of four to operate, and could carry up to twenty additional passengers. Updated models produced during the New Order were reconfigured to carry up to 60,000 metric tons of cargo, reducing its passenger capacity to just five beings. These newer craft were also armed with a turret-mounted laser cannon. (CRO, PP)

Mark II Air Brake
this is the smallest, and least effective, of the non-jetted air brakes manufactured for pod racers. (RAC)

Mark II A-Wing
this was the second-generation A-Wing produced by the New Republic shortly after the Battle of Endor. (BW)

Mark II Blaster Cannon
this Merr-Sonn medium repeating blaster cannon was designed to accept power cells from a number of different sources. This made it highly portable, since transporting power cells along with it was not always necessary. The Alliance made great use of this weapon, since they could not always guarantee a steady supply of specific cells. (CCG3)

Mark II Mining Droid
this ancient mining droid was produced during the years surrounding the Great Sith War. Because these droids were often used on remote planets, they were sometimes programmed to defend themselves as well as perform basic mining operations. In this way, the Mark II could protect itself - and its owner's investment in the mines - in case of a raid by a rival mining company or pirates. (KOTOR2)

Mark II Powersuit
manufactured by Telgorn, the Mark II powersuit is designed with a cutting laser, and is used primarily in rescue operations. (SN)
