A bacta grenade was a type of grenade containing a synthetic healing fluid known as bacta, which would be released when the grenade was activated and thrown. During combat, medics would throw the grenades near injured individuals who were out of reach of more conventional forms of healing. The grenades were made up of two halves that would separate in order for the bacta to spray out from the inside. One type of bacta grenade had gray halves, a red button on the top of one half, and a red light on the side of each half.

Coca-Cola was a brown carbonated soda with caffeine. It was packaged in red, spherical plastic bottles with white Aurebesh writing that read "Coca-Cola" and "original taste" surrounded by a black, angular border. The beverage was sealed using a metallic, screw-on cap with several rectangular protrusions. It was also served from dispensers with ice in large- and regular-sized paper cups. The drink was safe for humans to consume, and an altered version of the beverage called Diet Coke was available.

Zatec-Cha, a Tammuz-an vizier, brainwashed Mon, stripped him of his rule and his memory, and had his agents disguise him as an android. He was sold to Jann Tosh, a young miner on Tyne's Horky, who discovered he was a living being. Despite the negative first reactions of his uncle Gundy, Mon worked with zeal in the mines. They nicknamed him "Kez-Iban," a Bocce word which means "he who has returned from death".

Apparently, a duo of the droids would come to one's door and request funding for this religious fringe group. Advice from renowned linguist Ebenn Q3 Baobab was that one should merely utter the phrase "Gonk. Gonk. Gonk ko kyenga see," a highly controversial statement that was not allowed to be legally translated (see Baobab Security Directive 51-C). Order 66 Cookies were a type of cookie. Described as "crunchy" and having a "delightful aftertaste," they were sold in bags of 66 by an Imperial officer, next to a statue of Galactic Emperor Palpatine in Theed on Naboo during Empire Day in 1 ABY. The packaging was colored white with a clear side on them showing the cookies inside, and had the number "66" printed above the clear side, as well as the name of the product up on top, both written in Aurebesh.

Refresher, or 'fresher—sometimes though rarely called bathrooms, rest rooms, or waste-disposal units—were rooms intended for the purpose of washing, bathing and releasing bodily wastes. Refreshers were known to contain any of the following fixtures: a shower—or sonic shower, sanisteam or turboshower—a bath—or sonic bath or ripple bath—a faucet and sink, effluvial rinser, toilet, and sanitizer. They came in various configurations, from small freshers for starships, to large ornate rooms in private residences. The temperature of the refresher was usually adjustable. Some refreshers contained privacy screens.

Lol, I assume usage of the words "sonic shower", "sanisteam", and "turboshower" are from different books/comics/whatever with different authors who just made up a word for "space shower" without checking if one already existed. Do you think turboshowers are, like, faster and more powerful than regular Earth-like showers

Colonel Harland Sanders was a spectacle-wearing human male who was born around 97 BBY. A known lightsaber-wielder and likely Force-sensitive, Sanders was known as a strong and determined individual and a fierce opponent of the dark side. Sanders founded KFC, an establishment which apparently served buckets of chicken prepared under a special recipe, which rose in popularity over a number of years. Sanders later served in the Battle of Naboo alongside Pizza Hut Girl and the Chihuahua.

In 3645 BBY, Sith Lord and alchemist Darth Scabrous used a backpack-mounted intravenous device to transplant uncontaminated blood when he was infected by a zombie-creating virus known as "the Sickness". This slowed the rate of transformation, allowing him to survive much longer than others who were infected.[4]

In 1997, Chewbacca appeared on the MTV Movie Awards and, as recompense for not receiving a medal during the closing sequence of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, was given a medal by Carrie Fisher, who played Leia Organa throughout the original trilogy. In 1999, Chewbacca became the first major character in the Star Wars films to be killed off in the Expanded Universe, when R. A. Salvatore's The New Jedi Order: Vector Prime, the first entry in the New Jedi Order series, depicted him being crushed by Dobido, one of two moons of Sernpidal. This caused resentment and drama against Salvatore among some fans despite the fact that the idea originated with Randy Stradley, well before Salvatore was even signed on to the series. It was only after he signed on to his contractual obligations that Salvatore was informed that Chewbacca was to die.

ItBreathes posted:How the gently caress do you get crushed by a moon? luckily I still had the incognito window open: Anakin calculated Dobido would collide with Sernpidal in seven hours. This event, unbeknownst to them, was a result of the Yuuzhan Vong tactic, Yo'gand's Core. As the winds picked up, Anakin was knocked into the distance, causing Chewie to run after him. Chewie was able to bring Anakin to safety on the Falcon, but another blast of wind knocked him out of reach. Anakin piloted the Falcon, while his father stood on the entrance ramp hoping to lift Chewie up, but was forced to flee from Sernpidal when he realized it was too late to save Chewie. The Wookiee stood in the moon's trajectory, howling defiantly, and was crushed to death with those Sernpidalians who could not escape. His death drove Han to a resentment of his son Anakin. Han eventually recovered and forgave his son, but the death of his battle-brother and dearest companion would stick with him forever.

After the male accepted the bond by performing the blood kiss in the wedding ceremony, the life-bearer supported him for three to five years, providing "Support," granting him the strength and vitality of a young man during this time. He would also live in comfort and luxury with the life-bearer. The Support was a drain on the bearer's life energy, and she withdrew it after the three to five years, running the risk of death if she did not. She then inherited all of her husband's wealth and possessions, which he typically would not have been alive to enjoy without her support in any event. Life-bearers had to recover for a time after the death of a husband before they could marry again, but their gift was such that they had to provide Support for a husband or eventually grow sick and die themselves after a decade or so. They lived only by sharing the life essences of others and could not survive long without a husband to care for. Living on in this fashion, life-bearers could live several centuries.

A prostitute was a being who provided sexual services in exchange for payment. Prostitution was known to be abundant on planets such as Keyorin, Brentaal IV, Arcan IV, and probably many other worlds throughout the galaxy. It could even be found on planets such as Coruscant, mostly confined to brothels or other seedy entertainment venues such as the Outlander Club. A brothel, sometimes called a bordello, was a building where the business of prostitution took place. Madame Lota's House of Flowers was a brothel on Belsavis.

Beer posted:Beer was an alcoholic beverage. There were many types of beer available throughout the galaxy. A distinction was made between beer (which included fortified beers, lagers and ciders) and stronger alcoholic beverages (like wine and liquor), which were referred to as spirits.[1] The beverage had an unusual effect on Jawas, who would shrivel up like a slug if they consumed beer.[2]

lemme guess. Jawas can drink water and any other alcohol just fine but consuming beer alone has that affect. VERY intriguing, there Star Wars.

Maxi-chlorians were a creation of Darth Tenebrous as a way to achieve a form of eternal life. During his lifetime, Tenebrous injected himself with a retrovirus that infected some of his midi-chlorians, turning them into maxi-chlorians at the loss of his precognition abilities. These maxi-chlorians were long lived midi-chlorians that would linger after Tenebrous died, instead of migrating back into The Force.
