A: That is Nom Anor, a Yuuzhan Vong, of the Intendent caste. He masqueraded as many things

but I think you mean the leader of the Red Knights of Rhommamool.... don't remember the name.

I think he first appeared in Crimson Empire II: Council of Blood.

Yes I am the boss !! Congratulations, you have fallen into the infamous "Rogue Nine Trap" ....namely asking a question that has more than one answer

Jabitha was the being that ship was named after... She was in late NJO but actually first appeared in 'Rogue Planet'
http://www.geocities.com/womenofsw/bios/jabitha.html

I was after Nom Anor masquerading as Yuu'sha, the prophet sent to guide the shamed ones to freedom...

Yes, crimson empire is correct

good work phreak, now ask a question

Man, did I have to delve into the brain archive for this one......

the Coway go *all the way back* to the infamous Splinter of the Minds Eye

They are small, furry humanoids (omg ewoks !) and are believed to be related to the Mimbanites. Like the ewoks they were fairly low tech

Q. Who was Lady Valarian,

mtfbwya

[swphreak]

A: Lady Valarian is a Whiphid crime lord on Tatioone. She owns the Lucky Despot Hotel in Mos Eisley. Her main rival was Jabba the Hutt. SHe moved to Mos Ethna, and is basically the main source for resources for the planet.

Here's an easy one since I can't find an harder question:

Q: What did Prince Isolder offer Han to go away and let him and Leia marry?

[Rogue Nine]

A. I think, though I may be wrong, Isolder offered Han a Hapan battlecruiser.

[swphreak]

Yep, that's what I remember.

Q. Who were the B'Omarr Monks ?
*Describe them and their philosophy ?
*Which famous character became a monk and how ?
*What became of him ??

BONUS : Pic of a B'Omarr monk

mtfbwya

[guybroom]

here will be some fun - I have read vertually none of the EU (i've got dark empire 2 waiting to be read without reading dark empire 1 as the only comic in canon i've read) and i've only played 1 of the JK games.

let's see what SW databank can give me - Is that allowed???

But I can't answer this one.

Hello Guybroom. Welcome to the trivia thread. You can use any resource you like

...As a guide, pleasde read the RULES at the start of Page 1 of this thread...

The question stands

2 POINT QUESTION
Q. Who were the B'Omarr Monks ?
*Describe them and their philosophy ?
*Which famous character became a monk and how ?
*What became of him ??

BONUS : Pic of a B'Omarr monk

mtfbwya

[Shok_Tinoktin]

A)The B'omarr monks were a religious group that had a citadel on Tatooine, that would later become Jabba's Palace. They believed in the physical denial of all senses. They even went so far as to transport their brains from their bodies to nutrient suspension. I think the famous character you're referring to is Bib Fortuna. He was eventually able to have his brain put into the body of Firith Olan. He was able to gain considerable power from a combination of Jabba's old resource, Firith's resources, and his relationship with Lady Valarian's successor Shiri'ani.



Q)What force sensitive species inhabits the Kathol Rift?

[swphreak]

A: That would be the Aing-Tii. They use the force in mysterious ways.

Since I'm sure I got it right, I'll ask a question.

Q: How many gifts did Prince Isolder offer the New Republic/Leia? Why did they offer that many? What was the most important gift?

[guybroom]

Prince Isolder gave leia 63 gifts from 63 planets. The most important was the gift of his hand in marriage.

Can someone else ask a question please

mtfbwya

hmm... no takers

A. Omwat orbital was the Facility Qwi Xux initially worked on when developing the death star project. She was an Omwati herself, and was later moved to the Maw Installation to continue her work.

She describes working on Omwat Orbital it in the Jedi Academy Trilogy. Of course, Qwi's love interest back then was Wedge Antilles.....

Here's a fresh one then

Jaster mereel was a mandalorian who found Jango Fett after he was orphaned when his parents got mudered (Jango's parents) and adopted him.

He is from Concord Dawn and head of the Death Watch


I'll start asking questions when I answer soon - but someone else can for now. Also, do the games count as EU?

[Shok_Tinoktin]

Originally posted by guybroom

Yes, everything that is not in the movies is EU (with the obvious exception of FanFics and stuff).

[guybroom]

in that case i'll ask my own question and I have a small bit of EU knowlage from what i've read.


What happened to the last remaining IG-88 and which was it?

[Tanesh]

Umm, I thought the Death Watch was a group of ex-Mandalorians under Viszla (or whatever he's called) who fought against Jaster Mereel and his Mandalorians?

[swphreak]

That is correct, Jaster is the leader of the Mandalorian Shocktroopers.

OK. Guybroom. Remember to list some references, where did you read it etc ??

anyways, I will award the point Though Tanesh and Phreak are correct. Jaster was not from Death Watch....

Jaster was a Journeyman Protector from Concorde Dawn. He was taken in by Mandalorian Shocktroopers, and worked for them as a mercenary. So he actually wasnt a true Mandalorian, in the KOTOR era sense anyway ) A breakaway Mandalorian group called the Death Watch attempted to over the Shocktroopers and Jaster survived their attack, largely due to the efforts of Jango Fett

Here's the CUSWE entry for Jaster
http://theforce.net/swenc/entrydesc.asp?search=16253

There's also some stuff at the official site, of course

Tidbit : Boba Fett's green Mandalorian armour, is actually Jaster's

* * *

anyway, Guybroom's question stands

Q. What happened to the last remaining IG-88 and which was it?

mtfbwya

[swphreak]

A: The last true IG-88 (Programming) was the Death Star II's core. I'm guessing IG-88A. That was from memory...

The last IG-88 (droid shell) was in the YJK books. Raynar's Uncle found IG-88A's body, and reprogrammed it.

I wonder how IG-88 would have fared during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion?

I won't ask a question since I'm not sure if that was the answer you were looking for.

P.S. I didn't use any Star Wars Encylcopedia you cheaters

[guybroom]

Firstly - I'm sorry for giving the wrong answer. I must have read the website wrongly. Also remember I have read hardly any of the EU -I just remembered the 'Tales of the Bounty Hunters' - but i'm mainly using what is on the SW databank and google searches.

The final IG-88 was destroyed by the death star and I think you're right about which it was. It was IG-88A.

I don't know about the thing about Raynar or whoever so I'll give you the point.

[Astrotoy7]

Yes, Phreak is indeed right. and can have the point ( I will clarify the Raynar thing shortly....)

Guybroom, thank you for clarifying, please note, I am the only one that assigns points It is part of my awesome power

OK...on with it...

Sorry - I thought I was able to say if it was right or wrong and therfore if they get the point.

So then I can say if its right or wrong and if YOU give them the point.

Better???

yes indeed.... as seen in previous instances, if someone has answered a question, and given refs etc, they may still go on and ask a question. It is however imprtant that the person who aske dthe question clarifies, as this may affect points being assigned.

you'll notice that when questions in doubt are clarified I usually edit a post with a point assignment

anyway, enough babble, back to the questions

* * *

Q: Who is most likely responsible for Kalan's death?

A. Kalan was Prince Isolder's older brother. He was killed due to political motives and it was initially believed that his Aunt(Seccah) had orchestrated it...

[edit] bah ! I should have finished that thought .... anyway, points that go to me dont count..........no biggie

SW.com says thus

4 POINTS UP FOR GRABS !!!

Q. Name 2 of Kyle Katarns's ships ?
*What happened to them ??

BONUS : PICs of each

BONUS 2 : Which film did one of Kyle's ships make a very brief appearance ?

BONUS 3 : screenie of bonus 2


mtfbwya

[swphreak]

Isolder finally confronted his mother and accused her of being behind the deaths of Kalan and Lady Elliar. Ta'a Chume accepted Isolder's fiancée, and stepped down from her role as Queen Mother, handing that mantle to Teneniel Djo

I think everyone accepts that Ta'a Chume did kill her son.

A: Moldy Crow (See attachment for image)

Raven's Claw.

The Crow was in Ep1.

[jedispy]

Since the last Q was "Name 2 of Kyle Katarns's ships," and it was answered, I'm going to go now.

Firstly, unless you are one of the regulars and have changed your name, I send you a hearty welcome. Jedispy....

You mean Bria Tharen right ? She's been described earlier in a question about Han Solo....

of course, the what you are referring to is most likely the first ship Han and Chewie had, named after her...

references : Han Solo Trilogy

Q. Name the members of Figrin D'ans band, and what instruments they play.... ?

[swphreak]

jedispy: Be sure you've read the rules on page one, and very clearly.

I have no idea @ Astro's question.
