Legend

found on the planet Nam Chorios, Spook crystals are a strange form of life that evolved from a mixture of raw crystal and the Force. Also known as tsil, these green and violet stones are unique among the crystalline formations on the planet, and are highly attuned to the Force. When Dzym discovered their ability, he quickly set out to harness the stones' power. He gave some to Loronar Corporation, which was able to develop Centrally Controlled Independent Replicant technology by tuning the crystals with electrical impusles. The crystals could then understand and interpret commands from a remote location and act on those commands. The crystals were used in two primary applications: synthdroids and Needles. When Luke Skywalker discovered the true nature of the Spook crystals, he was able to gain their assistance in stopping Dzym and Seti Ashgad, on the promise that Luke returned all large, functioning Spook crystals back to Nam Chorios. Using the Force, they were able to contact the crystals in the Needle ships and have them destroy the Reliant, just as it docked with one of Admiral Larm's Carrack-class cruisers.
