Hello All. Welcome to the EU trivia thread.

Some very SIMPLE rules

1. Ask Star Wars EU questions only. If not strictly EU(ie. about a book/comic/game), it MUST be related to the EU via the movies. Any non trivia posts will be deleted...so dont make 'em

2. Try and supply answer with some info, such as what book, comic or game it was in, or reference source eg. sw.com

let me give an example

Q : What colour is Grand Admiral Thrawn's Skin ???
A : Blue... I first came across Thrawn in Tim Zahns Heir to the Empire.... cool character :)

3. ONE ACTIVE QUESTION AT A TIMEIf you are reasonably confident of your answer, have answered all question components and provided references, you may ask a question. If details of your answer are incorrect, this will be clarified and may affect whether you are assigned points.

therefore, if are only speculating you CANNOT ask a question
eg. Hmm.. i think you are referring to Grand Admiral Thrawn, but im not sure and cant remember where I read it...

If you dont feel like asking a question or have gone blank, just say PASS and anyone else can ask a question

4. STRICTLY NO SPAMMING.....

5. !!NEW!! A TALLY will be kept of posters and their number of correct answers. This tally will be posted every 50th post or so. The leader will be given a (crappy) EU related award :D

* * *

I'll start :p


Q. Who are the Noghri and what is their home planet AND have the noghri appeared in any of the SW games ???

A.
They are an alien species that were duped into following Darth Vader nearly to the point of worship after he detroyed and poisoned much of their homeworld, Honoghr. I'm not sure if they've appeared in a game or not. They're my favorite EU alien species though. My source is the T. Zahn trilogy that they first appear in.

My turn. Here's an easy one.
Q.
What was the name of Grand Admiral Thrawns Star Destroyer, and what class was it?
 Wraith 8
12-26-2004, 11:21 PM

A: Chimaera
Imperial-II class Star Destroyer commanded by Captain Pellaeon. It was used as Grand Admiral Thrawn's flagship, after Thrawn returned from the Unknown Regions to take control of the Empire some five years after the Battle of Endor.

CapN - the Noghri's game appearance was in Jedi Academy. Although Thrawn/Pellaeon appeared in the old "Tie Fighter" game, I dont believe the noghri featured in it.

Firstly. Wraith squadron was a squadron created by Wedge Antilles for covert missions. It consisted of a unique mix of pilots with highly specialised skills in different areas. The Wraith Pilots featured in the "X-Wing" Novel series written by Aaron Allston.

Wraith 8 of course describes the 8th designated pilot of this squadron.

my copy of 'X-Wing : Solo Command'(towards the end of the series) tells me Wraith 8 was the Gamorrean Voort "Piggy" saBinring.....

HOWEVER, up until this point Wraith 8 was actually Garik "Face" Loran, so I assume this is whom you are referring :)

Face had been a child actor, used in Imperial propaganda holos. He received a facial scar after he was kidnapped by ex. Rebel Alliance extremists. The scar was actually inflicted by his Imperial rescuers :(

check out this cool page for full bio, and even a pic of Face, from a Japanese NJO cover.

Q. What/who is Lusankya ??

 Jan Gaarni

The Lusankya was a converted Executor-Class Super Star Destroyer. Rumors had the Lusankya to be a prison planet before the truth was found that it was a ship, buried beneath the surface of Coruscant. Used as an enourmous prison complex, the Lusankya held many important "guests", one being Jan Dodonna, the general who briefed the rebel pilots that destroyed the first Death Star. The Lusankya was under the Imperial Intelligence's command.



Question: What other word is the Imperial Intelligence known under, why, and what organisation is the Imperial Intelligence part of?


*****
Sidenote: Another game the Noghri take part in is Rebellion (Supremacy) which came out before Jedi Academy.

Q: Who is Mirax Terrik, her famous family members, and the name of her ship ??
 Jan Gaarni

Actually, the correct answer is Ubiqtorate.

The Imperial Intelligence comrpises of 4 different divisions:

* Ubiqtorate:
the division that oversees all operations of the Imperial Intelligence at the highest level. Members of the Ubiqtorate are anonymous to all other operatives and members in the lower divisions.
Due to this secrecy and fear it creates, the Imperial Intelligence came to be know as just Ubiqtorate on many worlds.

* Internal Organization Bureau:
a division of Imperial Intelligence charged with protecting the overall Imperial Intelligence organization from any internal or external threats. It is known as IntOrg for short.

* Analysis Bureau:
the division of the Imperial Intelligence which is responsible for gathering data from other divisions and searching for patterns or other relevant information. It employs some of the best decryption and encryption experts in the galaxy.

* Bureau of Operations:
a divison of Imperial Intelligence which handles many of the surveillance, infiltration, counterintelligence, and assassination missions for the Empire.

The Imperial Intelligence is a military intelligence agency. Its counterpart intelligence organization is the civillian ISB (Imperial Security Bureau), created by the political party COMPNOR.

So COMPNOR has nothing to do with the Imperial Intelligence really. :)

Perhaps I should choose some easier questions next time, though I didn't think it would be this hard.

Oi ! Where your answer and question soldier ! :p

No, keep 'em comin Jan, I plugged in imperial organisations into the CUSWE and there were so many, I didnt know where to start. The entry for the ubiqtorate was very short. Can you please state your references ? :)

I dont see this as a weakness in my unstoppable EU knowledge at all[/false pride] :D

anyways, CapN got the answer pretty much :D

with the questions I ask tho, I'm trying to make them informative about some particular series or character so someone not as huge on the EU might read and perhaps want to check that book out[/false hope] :p

I just thought I should clear the answer up. :)

You can find some of the info on several online sites, some are for roleplaying purposes, others for info, but largely true. You can find the naming of the divisions in the "A Guide to the Star Wars Universe" by Bill Slavicsek, aswell as the original info in the "Dark Forces Rising Sourcebook" and "Imperial Sourcebook".

I found it strange too that Cuswe had so little info under Imperial Intelligence aswell, but it has all divisions listed none the less. You just have to know what they are called, which isn't really helping if all you can go by is the words "Imperial Intelligence". :p

Q: Who is Mirax Terrik, her famous family members, and the name of her ship ?

Let's visit Phreak's memory banks once again.

A: Mirax Terrik is the daughter of famous smuggler Booster Terrik (you remember his famous red Star Destroyer, the Errant Venture). After CorSec officer Hal Horn (Corran's father) caught up with Booster and sent him to Kessel, Mirax took over his operations. Her ship is the Pulsar Skate. Although Wedge isn't direct family, he is considered a part of the Terrik family since his parents' death. Mirax eventually married Corran Horn, and they had two children.

I think that covers it.

Here's a pic to illustrate phreak - [/Astro Mirax fan] :p

Wrongo, hickboy. Slave I (http://web.syr.edu/~srcasano/s1tech.gif) was a Kuat Systems Engineering Firespray-class attack ship that was really quite unique in its own right, as evidenced by movie appearances and in the EU. Slave II was not the same as Slave I. When Slave I was impounded after Boba's fall to the Sarlacc, Boba had to find a replacement ship until he got Slave I back. Slave II (http://web.syr.edu/~srcasano/s2tech.gif) is a MandalMotors Pursuer Enforcement Ship and looks absolutely nothing like Slave I. They are armed to the teeth and have sophisticated sensor suite packages, but Slave II lacks the stealth capabilities of Slave I, making it an inferior vessel. So saying Slave I and Slave II are basically the same is erroneous.

Alright then, I got them mixed up. I know there are 2 ships basically the same, and 1 that's different.

I haven't read the Fett books or the Empire's End comics which the different Slave whatever appears in forever.

Q. What is a so unique about a "Phantom" Class Tie Fighter, and where did they appear in EU.... ???
 Jan Gaarni
12-30-2004, 4:34 AM
#21
A: The Phantom Tie is unique as it is the smallest ship ever built (atleast by the Empire or any known ships to the Star Wars Universe) that was equiped with a cloaking device that not only jammed sensors, but made the ship disappear visually aswell.

It's first appearance was in the Rebel Assault game I believe.

Gav & Jori Daragon IIRC. This is from the "Golden Age of the Sith" comics of course and does take place some 5000 BBY. Gav and Jori charted hyperspace routes for smuggler and freight haulers, to try pay of the many debts they owed to Aarba the Hutt. Unfortunately for them, they crash landed on Korriban, a Sith stronghold and got mixed up in events that became known as "The Great Hyperspace Wars", which featured sith lord Naga Sadow.

For more info on the "Golden Age of the Sith" Series Click here !! (http://www.darkhorse.com/search/search.php?sstring=Star+Wars%3A+Tales+of+the+Jedi+-+The+Golden+Age+of+the+Sith&nsstring=redemption+fall+war+dark+nadd&viewmode=gallery)

[nb. Please do NOT confuse this with the "Stark Hyperspace War" which occurred about 10 years before the Battle of Naboo. This particular story is featured in a comic of the same name]

 Rogue Nine

A. You're talking about the Storini Glass Prowler, two of which were taken by Ton and Grinder off Storini. Grinder placed his in Face's cockpit as a prank, but Face thought it was Ton's so it didn't really work. As revenge, he wired up Grinder's room to make a scritch-scritch-scritch noise and placed an entry in the computer database about a ficticious cousin of the Glass Prowler, the poisonous Crystal Deceiver. This, coupled with the noise, made Grinder paranoid and subsequently faint when he tried to escape from his room.

A.
*Qwi Xux (pink bird girl that helped engineer the death star :( )
They met during the Jedi Academy Trilogy Novels IIRC.

they split up after a few years, it was a mutual decision IIRC. By the time if NJO, Qwi was last mentioned as helping a species called Vors rebuild a sacred structure on their homeworld(Vortex)

*Wedge then fell for Iella Wessiri of new republic intelligence. This all came to fruition in the later X-Wing series novel, Starfighters of Adumar By the time of NJO, Wedge and Iella had a young daughter Myri.

A.
Man, you *almost* got me there..... I was thinking fett, and then it dawned on me... the other fett... Jodo Kast.

Thrawn impersonated Kast in an intricate scheme, which IIRC was described in the 'Tales from The Empire' compilation.

Kast, was a bounty hunter, who also wore mandalorian armour, so often used to be mistook for Fett. Kast often used this to his advantage, letting bounties and creditors think he was Fett so as to collect the $$$. Fett eventually caught up with Kast on Tatooine and put an end to him(this was described in a Boba fett comic. which I think was called 'Boba Fett : Twin Engines of Destruction' or something thereabouts :) )

phew !

this is what Kast looks like (as per the Star Wars customisable card game :) )

A. Keiran Halcyon was the name Rogue Squadron pilot Corran Horn took when he decided to attend Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy on Yavin 4. He discovered his true heritage when his R2 astromech Whistler played a message for him left by his father, Hal Horn, letting Corran know that his true grandfather was not Rostek Horn as he had previously thought, but Nejaa Halcyon, Jedi Knight. Corran decided to take up his grandfather's legacy and attended the Jedi Academy not only to honor his progenitors' memories, but to help him in his search for Mirax, his wife.

This one may be a tad bit obscure, but here goes...

His real name is Kyp Durron, an apprentice of Luke Skywalker who turned to the dark side and took the, uh, sun crusher (I don't know the English name - it's the ship constructed by Qwi Xux which can destroy while suns) to attack the empire. The Corellian smuggler could be Han Solo who rescued Kyp from Kessel or Fen Nabon whom he met during his mission as Zeth Fost. But I'm not sure if Fen was Corellian.

A.
Damn these "Tales of" compilation. They occupy a very old and vague space in my memory !

I'm pretty sure this is from "Tales from the Empire".

OK. Lex Kempo was a crazy corellian who paraded around in a modified imp scout armour. He was initially was an imperial scout, but then defected to the alliance/new republic, working within the Red Alpha unit. He eventually broke off from this, joining Red Moons, a paramilitary unit.

He met his end by driving a repulsor sled full of explosives into a slaver compound on Gabredor III, leaving a crescent shaped trail of destruction in the compund - the symbol of Red Moons.

Cap, I think you hadn't noticed that the thread spilled over onto a second page(as my question re-Kir Kanos was at the bottom of page 1) :) No biggie. You are absolutely correct though, as was phreak :D

My question stands :) which compared to the doozies we've had recently should be fairly easy :D

Q. Which famous EU Imperial Captain, (later Admiral) was present at the Battle of Endor, and what was his ship ??

A: I believe you are referring to Gilad Pellaeon (I think I actually spelled his name right!), captain of the Imperial Star Destroyer Chimaera (I think I spelled that right too). He became captain after assuming command when the previous captain was killed during the battle. He served under Thrawn, Daala, and others. He becomes Admiral/Supreme Commander of the Imperial Fleet when Daala was defeated and steps down as Admiral.

I especially like his participation in the New Jedi Order series.

Q: Name all the Super Star Destroyers in Star Wars (I can remember 5 <.<).

Bonus to name all if there is more than 5...

Eclipse-Class:
Eclipse
Built for the Emperor around the Battle of Endor, but wasn't finished until 6 years later. Destroyed by the Emperor when he lost control over the Force Storm he had created.

Eclipse II
Destroyed by the Galaxy Gun, along with a sizable force of other ships, and Byss itself.


Executor-Class:
Aggressor
Flagship of Admiral Roekm stationed in the Inner Rim Regions. Entered into
service before the battle of Endor.

Executor
The very first Executor class to roll out of the shipyards. Commanded by
Admiral Ozzel, later by Captain Piett. Darth Vaders flagship. Met it's
demise when it plunged into the second Death Star surface.

Guardian
Flagship of Fleet Admiral Gaen Drommel. Was stationed in the Core regions
near Coruscant at the time of Return of the Jedi. Heavy damaged three years
after the Battle of Endor, but survived. Captured by the New Republic a
decade later.

Intimidator
Was finished around 13 years after the Battle of Endor. Became the Yevethan
flagship, later renamed to Pride of Yevethan.

Iron Fist
Original named Brawl, but was quickly renamed to Iron Fist by Admiral Zsinj, after his old Victory Class star destroyer.

Knight Hammer
Constructed by warlord Superior General Delvardus and commanded by Admiral Daala approximately eight years after the Emperor's death. Plated with special "stealth armour" as a sensor countermeasure, which has the interesting side-effect of making the hull almost completely black.

Lusankya
Secretly built and buried under the surface of Coruscant. Used as a top security prison complex for Imperial Intelligence.

Razor Kiss
Constructed 4 years after the Battle of Endor. Stolen by (then) Warlord Zsinj.

Reaper
Flagship of Scourge Squadron, an elite group of star destroyers which was formed for Grand Moff Tarkin and commanded by Grand Moff Ardus Kaine subsequent to Tarkin's death. Flagship of Kaine's Pentastar Alignment Imperial faction at a time approximately three years after the Emperor's death.

Terror
Admiral Sarn's command ship appearing in the Rebel Assault II computer game, some time before the Battle of Endor. It’s history is pretty much unknown.

Vengeance
Commanded by Admiral Senn in Airam sector sometime between the battles of Hoth and Endor. It’s fate is unknown.


Mandator-Class:
Mandator
Apparently one of the top line star dreadnoughts in the wealthy and well defended shipbuilding Kuat Sector at the outbreak of the Clone Wars. Supposedly it’s big enough to be included as a Super Star Destroyer, but little is known of it.


Sovereign-Class:
Sovereign
First of atleast 4 Sovereign-Class ships built 6 years after Endor, but was never finished. Unknown reason why not.

Autarch
One of atleast 4 Sovereign-Class ships built 6 years after Endor. Nothing is really known of it.

Despot
One of atleast 4 Sovereign-Class ships built 6 years after Endor. Nothing is really known of it.

Hereshiarch
One of atleast 4 Sovereign-Class ships built 6 years after Endor. Nothing is really known of it.


That's about all I know (some I re-learned about and a few I learned about :D )




Q: I'll come back to the question, I kinda suck at them, and have to leave for work right now. :)
I'll think up a good, but not too hard one. ;)

OMG ! Great Answer Jan :D Do you own the "Essential Guide to Vehicles" ;)

anyways. if you cant fathom a question just say you'll leave it open to someone else.... I hope you do come up with a question, theyre pretty challenging. I find them hard to answer as they are from souurcebooks and the likes, whereas my expertise only extends as far as the novels/comix....

A. Heh. the fact that it is you asking this question Niner, is itself a clue :p This occurred of course during SOTE era, but IIRC was overlapped by events during the awesome X-Wing Alliance PC game. The Y-Wing escort was provided by none other than Luke Skywalker with a posse of Bothans in tow :D



Ahh, you're so close, yet so far away, Astro. Luke flew his own X-wing when covering Suprosa. I'm looking for one of the Y-wing's pilots names.
