Coomb Spore
developed by Nom Anor and the Yuuzhan Vong, this virus breaks down the victim's molecular structure and causes a quick, horrible death. However, it was not communicable. Nom Anor had planned to use it on the humans of the galaxy, but could not develop a way to make the virus self-replicating, becoming more of a disease than a poisonous virus. The spores themselves were the favored food of the shlecho newt. Mara Jade had been infected with the spores, as Nom Anor tried to fathom the strength of the Jedi Knights. She survived for several months, using the Force to keep the disease at bay.
