Sando Aqua Monster

As Qui-gon said, "There's always a bigger fish." Not so! The sando (SAN-doh) is very mysterious, as very little is known about it. In The Phantom Menace, a sando aqua monster attacked an opee sea killer that tried to make a meal out of the Gungan sea transport carrying Jar Jar, Qui-gon, and Obi-wan. This species out-does even the colo claw fish, the crocodilian-looking sea monster that also attacked the above-mentioned transport.

Since I have little time today, that is all I have time for, so sorry everybody.

Zam Wesell

This purple-outfitted Clawdite assassin and bounty hunter is quite a sight. Killed by Jango Fett as a ploy to keep himself anonymus, Obi-wan Kenobi took the liberty of taking off Zam Wesell's (ZAM weh-SELL) right arm from the elbow down. Zam comes from Zolan, and can shapeshift into similar--but not by any means normal--forms. She had reddish-blonde hair in human form, but was, in reality, a reptilian humanoid--a Clawdite changeling.

As Anakin said, "I think he is a she. And I think she is a changeling."

The last words of Zam Wesell were Huttese; she was cursing her employer Jango Fett in Huttese. She preferred her blaster pistol, but used a projectile rifle to keep herself hidden (blaster bolts kind of glow), if only at the insistence of Fett.

Plo Koon

This Kel Dor (KELL DOOR), contrary to information from my misled neighbor, was actually killed over Cato Neimoidia (KAY-to neh-MOID-ee-uh), not Coruscant, which is where we thought he was killed. Plo Koon (PLO KOON) was a member of the Jedi Council until he was killed by Clone Troopers under his command, obviously as a result of Order 66. When Emporer Palpatine, or Darth Sidious, told the Clones, "Execute Order 66," I thought that "execute" was part of the name of the order, not that he was telling them to execute the order called Order 66. Anyway, he was shot down by the Clone Troopers formerly under his command, ending the Jedi life that began on Dorin. His niece was also a Jedi, and helped the Jedi communicate with the rest of the Republic's force during the Stark Hyperspace War. Since Plo's race cannot breathe in an atmosphere with so much oxygen, he was forced to don a mask and goggles, the former of which provided him with air friendly to his lungs. Mentored by Tyvokka (tie-VOCK-kuh) and mentoring Bultar Swan (BULL-tar SWAN) and Lissarkh (lis-SARK), he was a skilled swordsman and loyal Jedi.

Mustafar

Sorry; I was very preoccupied with returning to the real world after lots of vacation.

Mustafar (MUST-uh-far) is a volcanic world with no moons and one sun, 53,000 light years from the Core. It was, from what I understand, wrenched apart gradually due to opposite gravitational forces from Lefrani and the closer Jestefad. Because of the great pressure, I suppose faults formed, and, in turn, volcanoes and lava rivers. Mustafarians and Mustafar lava fleas are the natives species to this volcanic planet, the latter being the nonsentient mounts of the two subspecies of the former. Mustafarians are divided into the northern subspecies and the southern. The northern half of this race is tall and thin, and the southern half is shorter, and a bit stockier. The Mustafarians used the shells of the lava fleas for armor, due to heat-protective qualities, and treasured them as agile mounts. Even without the lava flea's pelts, Mustafarians' skin was hard enough to withstand normal blaster beams. This planet is very well-known because of the Duel on Mustafar, the last confrontation for a mostly human Jedi we all know very well. Because most of Anakin retired on Mustafar, this battle was the last for Darth Vader before he donned the suit.
