- Na'al, Voren: A researcher and historian, he was responsible
for recording much of the history and adventures of the heroes of the Battle
of Yavin, especially Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Princess Leia Organa Solo.
He started as an assistant historian under Arhul Hextrophon and eventually
became director of council research for the New Republic. [DFRSB, GG1]
- Naberrie, Padmé: See Amidala, Queen.
- Naboo: A small planet in the Mid Rim, known for its
vast uninhabited regions that offer sweeping vistas and striking scenery.
An ancient planet, Naboo has no molten core. Naboo is home to two dominant
species, the land-dwelling Naboo and the water-dwelling Gungans. The Trade
Federation blockade of the planet led to the Naboo ruler, Queen Amidala, to
seek assistance from the Republic, and when the senate became mired in endless
political discussions, Amidala initiated the vote of no confidence against
the senate chancellor. This led to the election of Naboo's own Senator Palpatine
as the new chancellor. [SWTPM]
- Nadd, Freedon: This Jedi was seduced by the dark side
of the Force and apprenticed himself to a Dark Lord of the Sith some 4,000
years prior to the Galactic Civil War. He ruled the planet Onderon for many
years. When he died, he was entombed within the walled city Iziz. His crypt
became a site of concentrated dark-side power. Jedi Knights eventually moved
his sarcophagus to the secure moon Dxun. Later, Exar Kun reawakened Nadd's
spirit, which helped him locate the hidden Sith scrolls. Nadd forced Kun to
accept the dark side of the Force, though Kun used a powerful amulet to later
destroy Nadd's spirit forever. [DLS, FNU, TOJ]
- Naddists: A group of dissidents from the planet Onderon,
they proclaimed their allegiance to the spirit of the dark Jedi Freedon Nadd
and staged an uprising some 4,000 years before the Galactic Civil War. [DLS,
FNU]
- Nadon, Momaw: An Ithorian, or Hammerhead, he lived on the planet
Tatooine after being exiled from his native Ithor for turning over Ithor's
agricultural secrets to the Empire. He had been a high priest, or herd leader,
of the Tafanda Bay, one of the huge floating cities that hover above
the jungles of Ithor. When the Empire's Captain Alima threatened to destroy
the floating city, Nadon relented and handed over the data. On Tatooine, Nadon
provided aid to the Alliance, including information and shelter for Rebel
agents. He returned to his world after the Battle of Endor. [GG1, SWCG, TMEC]

that lay flat at the heart of Hutt space. The planet is ruled by a council
of the eldest members of the Clans of the Ancients, the oldest Hutt families.
[DE, DE2, DESB, DS, GG4]
- Nam Chorios: A barren world in the Chorios systems of
the Meridian sector, the planet became a political prison for the Grissmath
Dynasty, who seeded it with the insectlike drochs -- carriers of the Death
Seed plague -- some 750 years before the Battle of Yavin. Around the time
of the New Republic, Beldorian the Hutt and Seti Ashgad held power on Nam
Chorios. Dzym, a mutated droch, kept Ashgad alive and young. Beldorian imprisoned
Callista when she arrived on the planet, and Ashgad took Leia Organa Solo
prisoner when she came to meet with him about nine years after the Battle
of Endor. Eventually, Leia and Callista teamed up; Leia killed Beldorian,
and the drochs were destroyed. [POT]
- Nampi, Princess: A giant purple sluglike being from
the planet Orooturoo, she trapped Jabba the Hutt and his crew aboard her ship.
She ate Jabba's top aside, Scuppa, but Jabba killed her when he used a remote
control to release a vial of acid that was implanted in Scuppa's head. [JAB]

near Derra IV. Several TIE fighter squadrons attacked the Rebel convoy Narra
and his squadron were escorting. In the wake of this tragedy, Luke Skywalker
was promoted to the rank of commander and placed in charge of the fighter
group. Under Luke's command, the fighter group evolved into the legendary
Rogue Squadron. [ESBR, GG3]
- Nar Shaddaa: This spaceport moon orbits the planet Nal
Hutta and is controlled by the Hutts and assorted smuggling guilds. An untold
number of smuggling operations are based on Nar Shaddaa, and many Corellian
pirates use the place as a refuge. In addition, all manner of galactic dregs,
both aliens and humans, fill the streets of the vertical city. [D, DE, DE2,
DESB, DF, TMEC]
- Narth: This Imperial planet was evacuated following the Battle

- Nass, Boss: The leader of the Gungan species on the
planet Naboo. When Queen Amidala bowed before him, he joined his forces with
those of the Naboo in the effort to free the planet from the Trade Federation
blockade. This ended a long-standing rivalry between the Gungans and the Naboo.
Boss Nass, the ruler of Naboo’s underwater Gungan city of Otoh Gunga, initially is hesitant to come to the aid of Naboo’s people, because they think they are better than the Gungans. However, when faced with the reality of the droid invasion, he is persuaded by Queen Amidala to work together. CHARACTERS GUNGANS NABOO REPUBLIC [PM]

of the six remaining Auril systems near the Cron drift, it was abandoned long
befor ethe start of the Clone Wars. Originally built by the Jedi, it contained
a library of Jedi texts and was supposedly haunted by the ghost of a dark
Jedi. Darth Vader found and destroyed the library, and afterwards the evil
scientist Borborygmus Gog created a false library to trap the essence of the
first Jedi to attempt to access it. Six years after the Battle of Endor, Luke
Skywalker freed Karn Solusar from the dark side of the Force while visiting
this site. Later that year, the New Republic established a base at the remote
space city, and Leia Organa Solo's third child was born there. The cloned

Cluster, it was once the site of a struggling chromite mining operation. Twelve
years after the Battle of Endor, the Yevetha eliminated the entire colony
as part of their Great Purge. [BTS]
- New Cov: The third planet in the Churba star system,
it has no indigenous intelligent life, but its vast jungles teem with abundant
natural resources. Eight walled cities, including the city Ilic, were built
on New Cov by the New Cov Biomolecule Company to serve as work colonies. The
sentient plants of the world are a great source of biomolecules. These biomolecules
are used to create medicines and other items. The armored city walls were
designed to keep out the carnivorous palnts and their spores. The planet was
allied with the New Republic, but it made periodic tributes to the Empire
in the form of sanctioned Imperial raids in which the Empire took all the
refined biomolecules it needed. In this way, the Covies remained on good terms
with both governments. [DFR, DFRSB]

- Nezriti organization: A criminal group that did business
with Prince Xizor's Black Sun organization. [SOTE]
- Nha, Mnor: A Gotal in the Azure Dianoga cantina, he
sensed Gavin Darklighter's fear at the approach of Imperial stormtroopers,
as well as Assyr Sei'lar. He assumed the Rogue Squadron pilot was bigoted,
so he took Darklighter before the Alien Combine to be judged. [KT]
- night beast: A fierce creature left as a guardian by
the Massassi on Yavin 4 to protect their sacred temples. When an Imperial
TIE fighter crashed into the Massassi ruins, the night beast emerged and ravaged

and mother was Theelin. He set up his own shop on the smugglers' moon Nar
Shaddaa. His spacebarn became a hangout, and he became friendly with the likes
of Han Solo, Chewbacca, and Lando Calrissian. Later, Han Solo's overtime lover
Salla Zend became Ninx's employee and then business partner. When Solo and
his wife Leia were betrayed to bounty hunters on Nar Shaddaa, Ninx, and Zend
saved them. It wouldn't be the last time, as the pair became embroiled in
Alliance affairs -- including helping out at the Battle of Calamari and saving
Leia and her children from an attack on New Alderaan. [DE, DE2, DESB]
- Nippett: An Ewok on Endor's forest moon, he was an infant
at the time of the Battle of Endor. [RJ]
- Nkllon: This planet in the Athega system is a superhot
world rich in ores and other raw materials. Nkllon is very close to its sun,
and ships that approach without the protection of accompanying shieldships
risk having their hulls melted away. The planet has a very slow rotation,
however, and this allowed Lando Calrissian to set up a mining operation on
the planet. As the dark side of the world is relatively safe to work on, Calrissian
built a moving city to serve as a base and processing plant. Called Nomad
City, the base moves to always stay on the planet's dark side. [HE, HESB,
LC, YJK]
- Noa: An old man who had been stranded on Endor's forest
moon for many years, he arrived by star cruiser while conducting a surveying
expedition, but his ship crashed. He has a gruff exterior but a kind heart.
He befriended Cindel Towani and Wicket W. Warrick the Ewok mostly at the urging
of his companion, Teek. [BFE]
- nobles: People who use their intelligence and natural
charisma to make their way in the galaxy -- including those from true royalty
to elected officials, military commanders to crime lords, traders, merchants,
ambassadors, holovid stars, and influential corporate magnates. Some bring
honor to the name. Others are sly, treacherous, and dishonorable to the core.
With a winning smile, a golden tongue, a powerful message, or a knack for
making compromises, the noble commands respect, makes friends, and inevitably
influences people. Most nobles wind up in dangerous situations because of
something they believe in or because their job calls for it. Others hope to
use their negotiating talents to navigate a course through the troubles around
them, or seek to find profit in the troubles of others. Whatever their initial
motivations, nobles usually wind up taking a cause and a goal that sustains
them through the roughest missions. An adventuring noble might be a senator's
aide, a free trader, a diplomat, a true prince or princess, or an outlaw's
lieutenant. Nobles often feel responsible for others, though some consider
themselves to be better than those around them. The noble fosters feelings
of good will and honesty, or at least the illusion of such, to succeed. Where
other classes shoot first, the noble starts out askign questions and hopes
to finish by negotiating a deal. Nobles believe they can be more effective
with words and deeds than with violence, though some draw a blaster when push
comes to shove. The noble is more comfortable in civilized regions of space,
where law and order have some meaning. Nobles can have the best diplomatic
and bargaining skills plus a knack for inspiring others and they make good
leaders. Nobles come to their profession in a variety of ways. Altruistic
nobles believe it is their duty and responsibility to serve and lead. More
selfish nobles seek the fame, wealth, and power often associated with the
positions they aspire to. Power-hungry nobles take advantage of the system
and wind up helping others only to help themselves. The halls of power are
calling. How the noble answers can make all the difference. Examples of nobles:
Leia Organa, Padme Amidala, Bail Organa, Talon Karrde, Jabba the Hutt, Chancellor
Valorum, and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. Charisma is undoubtedly a noble's
most important ability. Nobles' skill at interacting with others and projecting
a sense of confidence are crucial for their success. One of the noble's greatest
strengths is their ability to exert influence over their opponents. Some nobles
are renowned for their ability to inspire their followers and urge them to
greatness. Often, they can get results out of their friends, allies, and followers
that other leaders cannot. Born leaders, nobles know how to take charge and
lead their companions and followers to success. Some nobles lead a privileged
life and reap the benefits of an upbringing beyond most citizens of the galaxy.

- "Nockneeze.": "Seat" in the Bocce
language. [GPB]
- Nodon and Nonak: These brothers were Cathar, felinelike
humanoids. They joined Burrk, a former stormtrooper, in setting up big-game
hunting expeditions to Hoth in order to attain wampa ice creature pelts. The
three, as well as the hunters they guided, were killed by the wampas. Luke
Skywalker and Callista barely escaped from the creatures. [DS]
- Noghri: Lord Darth Vader discovered the Noghri species
on the palnet Honoghr sometime before the formation of the Rebel Alliance.
The Empire tended to ignore nonhuman primitives unless they could somehow
be exploited, and the Noghri were ripe for exploitation. Through a massive
deception and planet-toxification program, Vader convinced the Noghri they
were indebted to him and the Empire. They became the Emperor's personal Death
Commandos, serving as Imperial assassins until Princess Leia revealed the
deception during the events instigated by Grand Admiral Thrawn. Noghri are
small, compact killing machines with large eyes, protruding teeth-filled jaws,
gray skin, and thin, powerful muscles. With their enhanced sense of smell,
they can identify individuals by scent alone. They have a strong code of honor,
not unlike that displayed by the Wookiees of Kashyyyk. With long arms and
sharp claws, they developed an unarmed combat style that is among the deadliest
in the galaxy. The Emperor kept the Noghri a secret, using them as clandestine
warriors. They bowed to Lord Vader as their savior, extending the same respect
to Princess Leia when she eventually met them and convinced them of her identity
as Vader's daughter. Grand Admiral Thrawn kept a Noghri as his personal bodyguard
and sent squads of Death Commandos to capture Leia and her unborn twins. After
Thrawn's defeat, the Noghri left the service of the Empire and joined the
New Republic. [DFR, DFRSB, HE, HESB, LC, LCSB]
