TX-130 Saber-class fighter tank

The **Republic Interceptor** **TX-130 *Saber*-class fighter tank**, otherwise known as the **IFT-X** or **Republic fighter tank**, was a maneuverable, fast-attack tank used by the Jedi Order and their clone forces during the Clone Wars. They were also used by the Second Union during the New Republic Era.

## Characteristics

The TX-130 *Saber*-class fighter tank was equipped with twin laser cannons and a large payload of concussion missiles. Some models had a beam cannon turret on top. With a limited speed boost, Jedi pilots could remove themselves from tight combat situations, and then use the TX-130S's powerful optical zoom on the main turret to eliminate vehicles and personnel from a safe distance. Some were also equipped with an on-board R2 unit. The repulsorlift tank's armor was light enough to maintain its maneuverability, allowing the fighter tank to be used in an anti-vehicle and infantry support role.

Constructed by Rothana Heavy Engineering, the TX-130 was 8.2 meters in length with a top speed of 320 kilometers per hour. It had room for 2 passengers, 750 kilograms of cargo, and supplies for one day. It carried 2 Exo-Shell 3 Shield Projectors.

The top turret of the tank had an open-cockpit for the gunner, while the tank's rear door was also a weak spot, and if any heavy weaponry landed a hit there, the damage would be more severe than any other section of the vehicle.

Prime Minister

**Prime Minister** was a title that denoted heads of government and state on various planets or star systems across the galaxy. On Kamino, Lama Su was Prime Minister during the Clone Wars and ruled the planet from Tipoca City. Also during the war, Almec served as the Prime Minister of Mandalore, though he answered to Duchess Satine Kryze and, later, Maul. Prime Minister Almec ruled over the entire Mandalore system. Sith cultist Chattar Lal, in his public guise as Prime Minister of Dilonexa XXIII, ruled over the entire planet.

## Appearances

* The Sacred Water of Rugosa (First appearance)
Skad

**Skad** was a human male who was a member of a street gang that operated in the city of Mos Espa on the planet Tatooine. Residing in the Worker's District, the gang's members often stole water due to the high prices and the lack of work available in the city. When Daimyo Boba Fett became aware of the gang's activities, he went to confront them, but learned of their circumstances, instead allowing the criminals to work for him. After being recruited by the Daimyo, Skad and the other members of the gang fought off the gladiator Krrsantan when the Hutts known as the Twins sent him to kill Fett, and later chased the Twi'lek majordomo of Mayor Mok Shaiz through Mos Espa's streets. He later staked out the spaceport for reconnaissance, catching the arrival of the Pyke Syndicate operatives and reporting this to Boba and Fennec Shand.

Nite Owls

The **Nite Owls** were an elite, female Mandalorian unit made up of warriors led by Bo-Katan Kryze. When Bo-Katan joined Death Watch, the Nite Owls sided with the group and with its leader, Pre Vizsla. After Maul killed Vizsla in battle and proclaimed himself the new leader of Death Watch, the Nite Owls, like the rest of Death Watch, split in two, with members siding with either Maul or Bo-Katan. Those who joined Bo-Katan became part of the Mandalore resistance and fought against Maul's Shadow Collective and his Mandalorian super commandos, even attempting to free Bo-Katan's sister, the former Duchess Satine Kryze of Mandalore, whom they had formerly opposed due to her pacifist idealism.

Podracer

**Podracers** were repulsorcraft that were built as racing vehicles. Capable of achieving speeds over 700 kilometers per hour, podracers were used in the similarly named sport of podracing. The P-100 pick-up droid was designed to retrieve valuable components from podracers that had crashed and then bring these pieces to the storage hold of a P-100 Salvage Droid.

Podracers came in various shapes and sizes, although the general construction of a podracer was a one-man cockpit trailed by two engines which were attached to the cockpit via two cables. Variations of this included the podracer used by Ben Quadinaros, which had four engines connected to the cockpit. Another, more unusual podracer was the one employed by Neva Kee, which was one solid unit, with the cockpit placed in front of the engines.

Podracers could also be modified at the owner's whim. The crafty Dug pilot Sebulba, for example, had installed an illegal flamethrower on his racer. Anakin Skywalker flew a heavily modified podracer that was partially built from the ground up. Other podracers included the *Ord Pedrovia*, which was piloted by Gasgano, and the Vulptereen 327, which was piloted by Dud Bolt. The pilot Clegg Holdfast flew a red KT9 *Wasp*, a podracer which was manufactured by a company named Voltec.

By the fall of the Galactic Empire, podracing had lost much popularity, and was outlawed by the New Republic. Therefore, the engines were often redesigned for other uses. One such example was Cobb Vanth's speeder, which was constructed using the engine of a podracer. Some engines were even used to cook meat.
Polis Massa Research Base

The **Polis Massa Research Base**, also known simply as **Polis Massa Base**, was a research base set up by the Archaeological Research Council on the largest of the asteroid fragments of the former planet Polis Massa. The Kallidahin archaeologists hoped to uncover an evolutionary link between their species and the extinct natives of Polis Massa, the Eellayin. The base included mining operations and a medical center. When Darth Sidious ordered the extermination of all Jedi, Senator Bail Organa of Alderaan spirited Yoda, Grand Master of the Jedi Order, off Coruscant to the Polis Massa Base. Shortly thereafter, Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi brought the stricken and pregnant Senator Padmé Amidala to the base's medical bay. Having lost the will to live due to the betrayal of her husband, Amidala was dying, but she managed to give birth to her twins Luke and Leia before breathing her last.

Some point into the Imperial Era, the Galactic Empire discovered the base and, associating it with rebel activity, bombarded the base, leaving it in ruins. Later, Darth Vader would be led to the base after visiting the Tomb of Padmé Amidala on Naboo. Discovering a Chroon-Tan B-Machine midwifery droid, his forensics droid assistant ZED-6-7 accessed her damaged memory bank. Vader watched the footage in anguish as his wife gave birth and eventually died. Sometime later, the medical facility of the base was repaired by a group of Kallidahins who returned to the asteroid. It was here that Boba Fett, after escaping the Sarlacc of the Great Pit of Carkoon, came to have his injuries healed. After some time in a bacta tank, Fett recovered well enough from his injuries to leave and resume bounty hunting.
Panna Prime

**Panna Prime**, also known as the **red-water moon**, was a moon located in the Panna system that orbited the planet Panna along with two other moons.

## History

The entire moon was covered in a gelid ocean consisting of mud in which many different creatures dwelt. The moon was inhabited and had at least one city which catered to many different alien species. The Galactic Empire had a presence on the moon during the Galactic Civil War.

In 0 ABY, Luke Skywalker, Chewbacca crash-landed the *Millennium Falcon*, transporting an ill Han Solo on the moon. R2-D2, and C-3PO encountered Boba Fett near Panna City when Luke landed his Y-wing there searching for the *Falcon*'s crew. Although Fett at first appeared to be a friend, and helped the droids find a cure for and Solo's illness, which Skywalker had also contracted, at the time, Luke and R2 eventually learned that his intentions were to locate the Rebel base for Darth Vader. Fett escaped via his jetpack after his true intentions were revealed.

The inhabitants of the moon were known for their distinct hotcakes, simply called Panna cakes. This recipe was popular enough to be exported off-world, and served in locations such as Dex's Diner on Coruscant.
Spaceport Hotel

The **Spaceport Hotel** was a hotel established in Mos Eisley on the world of Tatooine; it had a reputation as being somewhat less than mediocre for a standard planet, but above average for Mos Eisley. The hotel boasted forty rooms available, and each room cost approximately fifteen credits for a one-night stay. The rooms were small but adequate and the majority of them had working air conditioning and sonic showers. A Sullustan was known to work there. By 9 ABY, Lyn Me had returned to Tatooine and was staying in the Spaceport Hotel.

## Appearances

* The Sand Will Provide (First appearance)
* The Mandalorian
* *Lyn Me: The Dancer*
Spotchka

**Spotchka** was a beverage that could be created from the creatures known as krill. It could be found on Sorgan, brewed by the resident farmers of an isolated farming village. Klatooinian raiders who often attacked the village stole the krill from the farmers, brewing their own spotchka. Lyn Me and Fennec Shand were individuals who drank spotchka.
Quarzite

**Quarzite** was a planet composed of crystalline caves and with a surface that was strained by strong atmospheric pressure, with the ability to crush starships and flatten beings. During the Clone Wars, the planet was ruled by the tyrannical Belugan Otua Blank, who was involved in a battle with the natives on the planet, the Kage Warriors.

## Characteristics

The planet was purple in color, and its interior was dotted with crystalline caverns of equalized pressure, allowing for life to be present on the planet.

An immense turbolift shaft allowed access to these interior habitable regions from space, and Subtram was the primary method of planetary travel.
Nikto

The **Nikto** were a humanoid sentient species native to the planet Kintan. There existed at least three Nikto subspecies: the Kajain'sa'Nikto (red Nikto), the Kadas'sa'Nikto (green Nikto), and the Esral'sa'Nikto (mountain Nikto). Many Kajain'sa'Nikto were employed by the Hutt Clan as enforcers during the Clone Wars, and centuries prior, while several green and red Nikto served the crime lord Jabba the Hutt shortly before the Battle of Endor. Some Nikto were members of the Jedi Order, such as the male Kajain'sa'Nikto Jedi Master Ima-Gun Di.

## Characteristics

They were all reptilian humanoids that were noted for their leathery skin with an average adult standing 1.8 meters tall. Sometimes these were covered in spikes and horns.

The species held a limited range of facial expressions because they lacked the necessary anatomical infrastructure. Most Nikto had cold black obsidian eyes. These were sometimes covered by a protective membrane. This took the form of a thin transparent pellicle that protected their eyes underwater and during windstorms. As a result, they were noted for their *"staring"* eyes and a seemingly blank expression which led to many underestimating Nikto intelligence.

The Nikto species featured six distinct mutated sub-species due to massive radiation bursts from a dying nearby star M'dweshuu, which sped up the rate of mutation so that traits that normally took millions of years to occur instead took only thousands. The five sub-species inhabited different geographic areas of Kintan, developing unique adaptations to suit the different environments on the planet. Only five were known to the galaxy at large; the sixth, the Numol'elrul, were a water-breathing subspecies that lived in the caverns below Glussa Island but were considered nothing more than a legend to the others, as they cut off all contact with the rest of their species around 5000 BBY.

The varying appearance of the Nikto sub-species caused confusion amongst those who were unfamiliar with the Nikto, but all Nikto had certain similarities; leathery skin, sometimes covered with spikes or horns, as well as eyes that included a protective membrane to shield against Kintan's harsh environment.

The mutation caused by the planet's radiation atmosphere were triggered in the race that resulted in five different subspecies that were each adapted to a specific environmental niche. These five reptilian species all displayed unique cosmetic features. While each subspecies of the Nikto was physically distinct and originated from different parts of Kintan, Nikto from different subspecies could easily interbreed. 93% of the offspring from such unions ended up with the characteristics of only one parent's race, with the rest combining the traits of two subspecies.

Nikto were known be particularly susceptible to the mind trick.
Single Trooper Aerial Platform

The **Single Trooper Aerial Platform** (**STAP-1** or **STAP**) was an agile flying machine designed for use by the Trade Federation's and Confederacy of Independent Systems' B1-Series battle droids as a reconnaissance and patrol vehicle.

## Characteristics

Single Trooper Aerial Platforms were similar in design to personal repulsorlift airhooks used for both civilian and military purposes. Designed to travel fast, the STAP's only weapon was a twin blaster cannon connected to it. High voltage energy cells powered the machine.

Each STAP was piloted by a single B1-Series battle droid that stood on a long foot panel, gripping a pair of handles that controlled its weapons and were used to pilot the craft. B1 battle droids usually piloted these STAPs. STAPs utilized by the Trade Federation prior to the Clone Wars tended to be brown in color; Separatist STAPs were predominantly blue with white triangular markings. In the Second Union, STAPs were piloted by Second Union soldiers.

The STAP-1 was used for scouting and anti-personnel hunting operations, and would occasionally be used in open battle to harass enemy forces. Because of its open design, STAP units were vulnerable to enemy heavy weapons, making them rely on their speed and agility to dodge enemy fire.

There was also a heavy STAP with larger laser cannons and a missile launcher.

It was the counterpart to the Republic 74-Z speeder bike.

Unidentified Nikto gangster captain

A Nikto was the **captain** of a gang of Niktos active on the Ring of Kafrene during the Age of the New Republic. In between 7 ABY and 8 ABY, they ran into bounty hunter Boba Fett, who had just captured his bounty in a cantina on Kafrene, wanting to pick a fight with him. Fett cautioned them to not cross the line, but the captain replied by saying that he had heard many threats in the past. However, Fett warned the gang again, saying that his voice could be the last one they ever heard, attacking the Niktos. In the ensuing brawl, the gang captain tried to attack Fett from behind but the bounty hunter tackled him down and killed him with a Sacros K-11 blaster after knocking him to the side.
Rogue-class Porax-38 starfighter

The ***Rogue*-class Porax-38 starfighter**, also known simply as the ***Rogue*-class starfighter**, **Porax-38 starfighter**, or **P-38 fighter**, was a model of starfighter manufactured by Baktoid Armor Workshop and Buuper Torsckil Abbey Devices and used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. Often flown by specially programmed IG-100 MagnaGuards, it came to informally be known as the **MagnaGuard Fighter**. The bounty hunter Cad Bane owned a modified *Rogue*-class starfighter known as the *Xanadu Blood*.

T-series military strategic analysis and tactics droid

The **T-series military strategic analysis and tactics droid**, also known as the **T-series tactical droid**, the **standard tactical droid**, or the **T-1** and initially designated the **CDE-T**, was a model of tactical droid manufactured by Baktoid Combat Automata. Used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars, T-1s aided in the coordination of their military, acting as advisors and often generals for their superior officers. The droids were deployed across the galaxy in many key battles of the war such as those at Christophsis and Ryloth, as well as the Second Battle of Geonosis.

Ruthlessly intelligent, T-1s mostly steered clear of the war's front lines and instead commanded their troops from various Separatist headquarters. They exhibited independence larger than that of their B1-series battle droid comrades and, although they were loyal to the Separatist cause, they were not afraid to abandon their superiors to guarantee their own survival.

Later on in the Clone Wars, the more advanced ST-series military strategic analysis and tactics droid was introduced but its predecessor still saw continued use up until at least 19 BBY. Despite the galaxy-wide deactivation of the droid army at the end of the war, remnants of the T-series could still be found well into the Imperial Era. During the Galactic Civil War, former Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano provided the crew of the *Ghost* with the head of a T-1, to aid them in their search for former Clone Captain Rex on Seelos. Other surviving T-1s eventually became a part of the Rebel officer corps. One surviving T-1 became a manager of Mustafar Apts, which was located on Mustafar.

Son-tuul

**Son-tuul** was a jungle planet located in the Outer Rim Territories' Albarrio sector. It was the base of the Son-tuul Pride, a criminal organization and one of the five syndicates. Darth Vader attacked the Son-tuul Pride and liberated its cache of credits. A group of mercenaries then met at a cantina on the planet to steal those credits from Vader's forces. Later on, a new crew of mercenaries, led by Chelli Aphra, was formed by the Son-tuul Pride to search for their leader 0-0-0's memories. Shortly after they were recovered, the Empire attacked and destroyed the Son-tuul Pride. 0-0-0 survived and left the planet to search for Aphra.

Shortly after the Battle of Endor, Jar Jar Binks was stationed at the cantina on the planet when Boba Fett arrived to capture him.

## Characteristics

Son-tuul was a planet covered in vast jungles, forests, and mountains. Located in the Outer Rim Territories' Albarrio sector, it had a breathable atmosphere. Its settlements were built between the trees with rope bridges and spiral stairs around them and were regularly patrolled by Imperial stormtroopers. Son-tuul was also home to the Son-tuul Pride, a crime syndicate and the sixth member of the Five syndicates. Their main base was based within the jungles of Son-tuul.
Nien Fenoob

**Nien Fenoob** was a male Sullustan who was the subject of a bounty for the bounty hunter Boba Fett in 3 ABY after breaking a contract with Jabba the Hutt. Whilst in pursuit of Fenoob, Fett was summoned by Darth Vader for a new job, and passed his current job to a rookie.

During the reign of the New Republic, Fett took a new bounty on Fenoob in between the years 7 ABY and 8 ABY. Fenoob had allegedly broke a deal with Gorga Desilijic Aarrpo, Jabba's nephew, leading to the Hutt posting a bounty on his head.
Shydopp

**Shydopps** were a species that inhabited the planet Morak. After the fall of the Empire, Shydopp pirates attacked shipments of rhydonium being delivered to an Imperial remnant, as well as Din Djarin and Migs Mayfeld, who were disguised as members of the remnant. The Shydopp Vorg Alsum was a prisoner of the New Republic. Another Shydopp served as a fighter pilot in Gorian Shard's crew.
Seismic charge

**Seismic charges** were devastating weapons that drew sound in from their immediate vicinity and exploded in concussive waves of brilliant blue light, shattering everything in their wake.

## Characteristics

A few seconds after launch, a seismic charge would detonate into a blue ball-shaped explosion which had the unusual side-effect of drawing in all sound from a given area around it. This small explosion soon collapsed in upon itself before releasing a shock wave of energy that would obliterate material in its path. They were particularly effective in asteroid fields, enabling the pilot to clear an area of hazardous asteroids. Such seismic waves were even capable of penetrating thin durasteel plating, such as the Void-7 seismic charge produced by Krupx Munitions.

## History

Jango Fett launched several seismic charges from a deployer aboard his starship, *Slave I*, while trying to kill Obi-Wan Kenobi during their dogfight in the asteroid field that orbited the planet Geonosis.

Years later, during the Galactic Civil War, Luke Skywalker acquired Utheel Rockcrusher Compact charge during his mission to extract the Givin operator Drusil Bephorin. He deployed one to destroy an Immobilizer 418 cruiser.

Around 5 ABY, Jango's son Boba Fett flew *Slave I* near Churruma, where he was intercepted by a Cantwell-class Arrestor Cruiser. As the Imperial cruiser caught Fett's ship on a tractor beam, the bounty hunter released a single charge which destroyed the Arrestor's main beam emitter and caused damage to the ship's systems, allowing him to escape.

Between 8 ABY and 9 ABY, Boba flew *Slave I* to escape Scarif and the remains of the Imperial security complex. Three TIE Interceptors, originally four until Fett destroyed one of them, pursued the ship as it escaped, but Boba quickly obliterated the interceptors with a charge.

In 9 ABY, Boba and Fennec Shand flew *Slave I* to the Great Pit of Carkoon, where Shand dropped a seismic charge into the mouth of the sarlacc inhabiting the pit. The charge's explosion resulted in both the pit and the sarlacc being destroyed. Later that same year, Fett flew *Slave I* to pick up Din Djarin and Migs Mayfeld following their raid on an Imperial refinery on Morak. Two TIE fighters pursued the ship as it escaped, but Boba quickly obliterated the fighters with a charge.

Shadows of the Empire

"**Shadows of the Empire**" is the fourth episode of Season 2.

## Newsreel

*Feared and admired, respected and despised, Boba Fett enjoys a dubious reputation as the galaxy's most successful bounty hunter! Most recently, he's been taking jobs from clients under a low profile. Not many bounty hunters are as skilled and relentless as Fett, so who knows who would be the next to hire him...*
R4-S9

**R4-S9** was an R4 astromech droid that served the fanatical Sith cultist Chattar Lal and his Sith Eternal acolytes at a Sith temple on Mustafar. The droid projected Lal via hologram at the temple whenever he needed to speak with his fellow Sith worshippers while he was situated off-world at his palace on Dilonexa XXIII.

In the year 7 ABY, the bounty hunter Boba Fett chased Lal from Dilonexa XXIII to Mustafar, attacking him and his subordinates at the temple. During the ensuing skirmish, Lal ordered R4 to send a distress signal that would alert any allies to send reinforcements. R4 was only able to get a signal out to Ochi of Bestoon before Fett destroyed the droid with a single shot from his blaster carbine.

T-65C-A2 X-wing starfighter

The **T-65C-A2 X-wing starfighter** was a model of space superiority starfighter in use by the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War, part of the versatile X-wing starfighter line. Red Squadron used at least one at the Battle of Scarif in 0 BBY. By 5 ABY, the T-65C was considered an older model, and one was used by Temmin Wexley as part of the New Republic's Phantom Squadron in the Battle of Jakku.
Sith cultist

A **Sith cultist**, also referred to as a **Sith loyalist**, was an individual who was loyal to and worshipped the Sith. The Acolytes of the Beyond were considered a Sith cult, as was the Sith Eternal on Exegol where cultists continued to follow the Sith religion despite the deaths of the last two Sith Lords, Darth Sidious and Darth Vader. At some point, Chattar Lal became a Sith loyalist, worshipping Vader. One Sith cult, the Acolytes of the Beyond, sought to collect Sith artifacts such as Darth Vader's lightsaber, while another group, the Alazmec of Winsit, revered Vader as ruler of the galaxy. Led by the revived Darth Sidious, the Sith Eternal labored for a generation to build the Final Order, a large fleet of Sith Star Destroyers.
New Republic Defense Force

The **New Republic Defense Force**, also known as the **New Republic military**, was the unified military forces responsible for protecting the New Republic, composed of the land-based New Republic Army, the naval New Republic Defense Fleet, and the special operations New Republic Special Forces and was formed from the forces of the Alliance to Restore the Republic following their victory against the Galactic Empire at the Battle of Endor.

However, following continued action during the last phase of the Galactic Civil War, training and funding was allocated primarily to the local planetary defense forces, and the New Republic Defense Force was kept reduced footing via the Military Disarmament Act and sought out Imperial activity in the Outer Rim Territories.
Smoke grenade

**Smoke grenades**, also known as **smoke bombs**, were an explosive device which, upon triggering, would release a cloud of dense smoke, blocking the target's vision.

## Characteristics

Smoke grenades (called "smokers" in military jargon) released a cloud of obscuring smoke that lasted for one minute. They had a variety of uses, such as creating smoke signals for landing zones, aerial attacks, or evacuation. They were also used to block the sight of enemy forces or to create chaos in a crowd. The BlasTech Nacht-5 smoke grenades used by the Rebel Alliance were modified to release colored smoke, such as red, green, or blue. Smoke grenades could either be thrown or launched from a grenade launcher.
R5-series astromech droid

The **R5-series astromech droid**, also known as the **R2-5**, was a line of low-cost astromech droids built by Industrial Automaton. Based upon the success of prior astromech models, such as the wildly popular R2-series, Industrial Automaton intended the R5-series to cater to budget buyers at the cost of some functionality. Cut-price versions of superior R2 units, they were low cost, but prone to malfunctions, defects, and bad attitudes. Standing 0.97 meters in height they generally had shorter, cone-shaped heads and were equipped with repair arms. Their reputation was so bad that their manufacturer, Industrial Automaton, had to pull the model from the market to save their own reputation. R5-D4 was one of the last units produced in the R5 line. R5-D8, R5-K6, and S4 were R5 droids that served the Rebel Alliance during the Galactic Civil War.
Stormtrooper X's pirate gang

This **pirate gang** was led by the mercenary Stormtrooper X and included at least a dozen other outlaws. They once raided a safehouse owned by the Hutt crime lord Narbuj Desilijic Preor and made off with a substantial amount of spice and credits.

## Appearances

RGC-16 airspeeder

The **RGC-16 airspeeder** was an airspeeder model in use during the Clone Wars.

## History

An RGC-16 airspeeder was used by Cassie Cryar and Ione Marcy to escape Nack Movers's apartment after killing him and taking Ahsoka's Lightsaber, which he had bought from Bannamu. During the assassination attempts on Duchess Satine Kryze, Kryze fooled the Republic authorities by thinking that she was driving an RGC-16 airspeeder. Cad Bane also used one when taking C-3PO to his Coruscant hideout. and later, his Techno-service droid Todo 360 to toss Threepio and R2-D2 back where they found them.

During the Age of the New Republic, an RGC-16 airspeeder was used by a unit of Cold weather assault stormtroopers serving under Moff Gideon at their camp on Carlac. It was later stolen by Indiana Jones and K-7R3 who were escaping from the camp during a skirmish with the troopers.
T-16 skyhopper

**T-16 skyhoppers**, also known as the **T-16 airspeeders**, were Skyhoppers, that were personal repulsorlift airspeeders manufactured by Incom Corporation, recognizable by its distinctive tri-wing design. It was a popular, high-performance airspeeder due to its stable and reliable transportation on almost any world, and thus provided many youths with their first flight training. The T-16's trihedral design greatly resembled that of the Imperial *Lambda*-class T-4a shuttle.

## Characteristics

The Incom Corporation T-16 Skyhopper was equipped with an ion drive and a fully pressurized cockpit, allowing it to operate at trans-orbital altitudes.

Civilian versions of the skyhopper were armed with pneumatic cannons, and were equipped with targeting lasers though many law-enforcement agencies and planetary militaries throughout the galaxy utilized modified T-16s due to their overall good performance. However, because it was armed with only a single mounted repeating blaster, it was often overlooked by the military.

Even so, these airspeeders were often used as training vehicles by the Rebel Alliance, due to the fact that their flight controls were similar to those of X-wings.

The skyhopper was a common sight across the galaxy, with versions of the craft found on nearly every settled world. The T-16 was identified by its tri-wing design and triangular cabin. The three wings, which were reproduced in countless Imperial transports, provided excellent stability. The central airfoil segmented the canopy and blocked much of the pilot's view, but computer displays and a holographic mapping system compensated for this decreased field of view.

The speeder had a top speed of approximately 1,200 kilometers per hour, and the two repulsor generators provided lift up to 300 meters. Many young pilots preferred skyhoppers over landspeeders because of the increased maneuverability.

Kodo Arr, the self-proclaimed "galaxy's best smuggler", owned a T-16. He claimed that if you put a "hundred large" credits into it, it could become a great craft. He once smuggled a box larger than the speeder on Nar Shaddaa, which almost broke the craft.

Luke Skywalker owned a T-16 on his home planet of Tatooine, where he would use womp rats as target practice and race through Beggar's Canyon with his friend, Biggs Darklighter. After an incident where Skywalker "threaded the needle" during a dangerous run through Beggar's Canyon, the T-16 ended up undergoing repairs at the Lars Homestead, repairs that were ultimately not completed by the time of the battle between the *Tantive IV* and the *Devastator*.

Six months after the Battle of Yavin, two T-16s were flying through Beggar's Canyon when the Empire raided Mos Eisley.

The MT-16 was a T-16 modified by the New Republic with a blaster cannon for light combat.
T-21 light repeating blaster

The **T-21 light repeating blaster**, also known as the **T-21 heavy blaster** or simply the **T-21 blaster rifle**, was a model of light repeating blaster manufactured by BlasTech Industries. After being used by the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars, with at least two clone troopers wielding T-21s during the First Battle of Geonosis in 22 BBY, it was used by some of the Galactic Empire's Stormtrooper Corps. It was a rapid fire weapon, that was accurate out to long ranges, although its suppressive fire capabilities were limited by its low capacity, as it only had enough power to fire 30 shots; to bypass this flaw, it could be hooked up to a generator for sustained fire capabilities.

The T-21's design was in-part inspired by the DC-15A blaster rifle of the Galactic Republic's clone troopers. Magma troopers and shadow troopers were known to use the T-21. Shortly prior to the Battle of Yavin, a number of the stormtroopers deployed to the planet Tatooine to search for a set of stolen Death Star plans carried T-21s. A marksman version with optics, the T-21B heavy blaster, was modeled after the T-21 design.
RQ protocol droid

The **RQ protocol droid**, also known as an **RQ unit** or **Lothal protocol droid**, was a model of protocol droid manufactured by Lothal Logistics Limited.

## Characteristics

Also known as an RQ unit or Lothal protocol droid, the RQ protocol droid was manufactured by Lothal Logistics Limited, a technology firm based on the planet Lothal. Standing 1.85 meters tall and weighing 75 kilograms, they were equipped with TranLang II communications modules and had many of the same features and functions of expensive protocol droids found in areas of the galaxy. They often lacked the expensive metallic plating on other protocol droids, which meant they did not require costly cosmetic upgrades, making them ideal for use in governments, military, and private ownership. An RQ unit's plating was colored in various combinations of black, blue, brown, gold, gray, green, orange, and silver, while their photoreceptors could be colored blue, orange, white, or yellow.

## History

Built and programmed locally for service in government and private business offices, RQ protocol droids were common in the star systems surrounding Lothal. Lothal Port Authority used one of them as a controller droid, overseeing Capital City spaceport from a control station. The Jablogian crime lord Azmorigan owned an RQ unit, which he used as a servant aboard his C-ROC *Gozanti*-class light cruiser, the *Merchant One*. Four force pike-wielding RQ units finished with the symbols and blue coloring associated with the Imperial Senate were part of Senator-in-exile Gall Trayvis' personal guard. The smuggler Lando Calrissian transferred the logic unit of his personal attendant droid W1-LE in the body of an RQ unit. The E-XD-series infiltrator droid outwardly resembled this model while in protocol droid mode.

Ronto

**Ronto** were large, quadruped mammals that were commonly used as beasts of burden by the Jawas of Tatooine. They were known for their loyalty and strength, being able to carry hundreds of kilograms of weight. They were large enough to frighten off Tusken Raiders, though they were easily spooked by machines, such as speeder bikes. They were commonly used on Nubia and Benja-Rihn.

## Characteristics

Like the native dewbacks of Tatooine, ronto were easy to train and became quite fond of their masters, whose faces they associated with food. Rontos had superb senses of hearing and smell, although they had poor vision, which is why they were startled by sudden movements. Rontos needed large amounts of water, although their skins shed excess heat, allowing them to function well in desert conditions. They were rarely exported, though, because offworlders thought their skittishness made them unreliable in urban areas. Another reason the ronto was popular with the Jawas was that Jawas did not usually visit urban areas, so it was ideal for desert travel.

When in heat, female rontos gave off a powerful, musky scent much like the smell of a Rodian. During mating season, Rodians on Tatooine were encouraged to stay away from male rontos, lest they inadvertently become the target of a ronto's affections.

Rontos could hear sounds in the range of 32 kHz.

Rontos were extremely loyal and easily domesticated. They developed deep bonds with their masters and their keen sense of smell serveed as an early warning to riders of imminent dangers. Their size was such that only the largest of Tatooine's predators risk attacking them. Even Sand People kept their distance from rontos, though a hungry krayt dragon feared little from the gentle herbivore.
Shadow trooper

**Shadow troopers**, also spelled as **shadowtroopers**, were elite and highly trained stormtroopers that served the Galactic Empire during the Galactic Civil War against the Rebel Alliance. They wore distinguishing black suits of experimental armor coupled with portable cloaking devices, rendering them almost completely invisible and highly suited for stealth missions. Shadow troopers overwhelmed their enemies by attacking in hordes, using various weaponry such as T-21 heavy blasters and flash grenades.

## Characteristics

Shadow troopers, alternatively spelled as shadowtroopers, were a specialized variant of stormtroopers in the service of the Galactic Empire. Comprising highly trained, elite shock troops, shadow troopers served as a menacing fighting force that possessed a fanatical loyalty to the Empire, as well as an unswayable dedication to the Imperial cause. While the troopers tended to attack in hordes to overwhelm their enemies in combat, they were highly suitable for missions requiring cunning rather than brute force thanks to their stealth equipment.

Shadow troopers wore distinguishing black suits of experimental stealth armor made from stygian-triprismatic polymer, which allowed them to avoid sensors. Their imposing armor was coupled with a portable cloaking device, which provided optical camouflage by rendering the well-armored soldiers almost completely invisible as they moved around, giving the troopers the ability to appear out of thin air and surprise their enemies. Shadow troopers' specialized armor could also be adorned by the Imperial crest on the left chest, as well as a black pauldron placed on the right shoulder.

Like standard stormtrooper helmets, the armored helmets worn by shadow troopers featured heat dispersion vents and gray or blue-tinted exhaust filters located on each side of the face. In the same manner, shadow trooper helmets were equipped with a direct speaker placed between two induction filters on the chin section. The helmet's eye lenses and mouth area were also gray in color.

Outfitted with a wide range of survival equipment, weapons in shadow troopers' arsenal included E-11 medium blaster rifles, DLT-19 heavy blaster rifles, T-21 heavy blasters, and flash grenades. They could also be equipped with jetpacks. Some shadow troopers used a holster as well as chest or belt pouches to carry their equipment, all in black.

## History

Shadow troopers served the Galactic Empire during the Galactic Civil War against the Rebel Alliance. They were based on their clone shadow trooper predecessors, a variant of the clone troopers deployed by the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars. According to Admiral Gial Ackbar of the Rebel Alliance, shadow troopers were elite soldiers who were not to be underestimated. During the New Republic Era shadow troopers served the Dark Empire.
Nevarro school

The **Nevarro school**, formerly the **Nevarro Common House**, a cantina used by the Bounty Hunters' Guild, was located in a city on the planet Nevarro. During the New Republic Era, Greef Karga gave out bounties to members of the Bounty Hunters' Guild from the cantina. The location was frequently populated by a variety of patrons.

The cantina was the site where the skirmish on Nevarro began, and it was heavily damaged, albeit not destroyed, by stormtrooper firing squads and incinerator troopers—also resulting in the Client's death—before Din Djarin, Karga, and their accomplices escaped the building.

At some point after Djarin left Nevarro, what remained of the cantina was converted into a school for the children of the town as Karga and his new companion, ex-rebel shock trooper Carasynthia Dune, cleaned up the town in the aftermath of the Imperial presence. When Djarin returned to Nevarro to ask his friends Karga and Dune for their help, Djarin's companion Grogu was left at the school during a lesson on geography of the galaxy while they went on a mission.
Shydopp pirates

The **Shydopp pirates** was a pirate group comprising of Shydopps armed with spears and thermal detonators and riding skiffs. The pirates operated on the planet Morak during the New Republic's reign and targeted an Imperial remnant's rhydonium shipments. Around 9 ABY the Shydopp pirates destroyed HCVw A9.2 juggernaut transports Juggernaut Three and Juggernaut Four and engaged in combat with Juggernaut Five.

One of the transport's drivers, the disguised Mandalorian Din Djarin, fended off waves of pirates pursuing Juggernaut Five. Djarin managed to destroy several pirate skiffs, but was outmatched by five additional skiffs of pirates. However, the remaining Shydopp pirates were eliminated by two TIE fighters and some stormtroopers and shoretroopers.
Rodian

**Rodians** were a reptilian humanoid species native to Rodia in the Tyrius system. Highly recognizable due to characteristics in facial structure and skin pigment, Rodians were infamous for their violent culture, which sprang from the difficulties of life in the jungles of their homeworld. Though they were often relegated to the fringes of galactic society as bounty hunters or criminal henchmen, Rodians were not merely simple-minded thugs. The Rodian people managed to produce artists, merchants, and politicians who were found even among the upper classes of the Core Worlds.

## Characteristics

Rodians were a species of reptilian humanoids. They possessed large pupil-less eyes that could see in infrared spectrum, slender snouts, pointed ears, twin saucer-like antennae that detected vibrations atop their heads, and a ridge of spines cresting their skulls. Green (sometimes yellow or turquoise) scales covered their bodies, and their skin had a rough, pebbly texture, except on the snout and hands. Females were physically distinguished by their mammary glands, and some of them, like Greeata Jendowanian, were capable of growing long tresses. The Rodian hand featured five long, dexterous fingers with suction cups at the ends. The shape of the Rodian hand, however, was as such that if an object was designed for their species, it would be uncomfortable for a human to use. Their toes were a lot like their fingers: long, and tipped by suction cups. Although they were oxygen breathers, Rodians could breathe an air saturated with Clouzon-36 without the assistance of a respirator.
TIE/sk x1 experimental air superiority fighter

The **TIE/sk x1 experimental air superiority fighter**, also known as the **TIE/sk atmospheric fighter** or simply the **TIE striker**, was a streamlined variant of the TIE line starfighters used by the Galactic Empire, most notably during the Battle of Scarif. Specialized for in-atmosphere missions, the atmospheric fighter was identifiable by its horizontal high-speed wings and large central pod. Largely because of its specialization for such missions, it was one of the few TIE models to be used by the Imperial Army as well as the Imperial Navy.

Sullustan

**Sullustans** were a species of Near-Humans from Sullust. As skilled pilots and navigators, Sullustans, also known as **Bomewrights**, were common sights for spacers and at busy spaceports. The Sullustans played an important role in the Galactic Civil War and were charter members of the New Republic. Notable members of the species include Nien Nunb, Ten Numb, Nien Fenoob and Dllr Nep.

## Characteristics

A diminutive species of near-Humans, Sullustans ranged from 1 to 1.8 meters in height and bore round, tapered skulls. Sullustans were distinguishable for their almond-shaped black eyes, facial jowls called *dewflaps* and large, round ears.

Having evolved in the underground of their planet, their wide earlobes provided excellent hearing and a sense of directional sound, and their large eyes provided exceptional low-light vision and excellent peripheral vision. Sullustans could see up to 20 meters in the dark without being sensitive to infra-red, meaning they could effectively read and see normally with no light at all. Perhaps due to their relative lack of exposure to natural light, Sullustans began to suffer from corneal defects after 30 standard years. After significant deterioration, many chose to wear special visors to prevent further damage. Some Sullustans tattooed their heads as a form of individual expression.

Like humans, Sullustans had only a single heart and one stomach. It was very difficult to get a Sullustan drunk, and Sullustans who did get drunk did not suffer hangovers.

Sullustans were pink-skinned and generally hairless, although facial hair was known to occur in some cases in males, as it did with pilot Dllr Nep and his white goatee. Cranial hair was rare for males, but females of the species often grew it; it was considered a symbol of individuality and was worn in a manner helping to express this.

Sullustans possessed an exceptional innate sense of direction and intuition since their civilization grew in underground tunnels; many were able to navigate a path after seeing a map only once. This ability extended to sublight and hyperspace navigation, as well as patrol work, so much so that Sullustans made excellent scouts, pilots and navigators; Sullustan pilots scouted the Rimma Trade Route and those who joined the Rebel Alliance were put to use foiling Imperial covert operations.
