A confused and difficult state of being, always looking for something to either piss you off or piss off someone else. Trying too hard to please yourself.

Glaurung was the first of the uruloki, and Ancalagon the greatest.
The uruloki included not only the winged dragons but also the wingless fire- and cold-drakes.

Planet on the edge of Old/New Republic/Empire space, on the far edge of the Outer Rim (Star Wars expanded universe). First planet targeted by the Ssi-Ruuk aliens for colonisation and entechment. Ruled by Imperial Governor Nereus and later by Gaeriel Captison. Saved by a coalition of imperial and rebel forces.
The planet is a major manufacturer of repulsorlifts. Droids are almost unknown, and the local religion, the Balance, is hostile to Jedi.
Ruled officially by a planetary senate but in fact by the governor during the imperial period. Planetary defences are run by Petr Thanas, who was sent there as a punishment for refusing to massacre insurgents at a slave mine. After the fall of the governor, it is ruled by the senate and is affiliated to the New Republic.

Something you never, ever want to hear coming from the lips of a man who controls a nuclear arsenal large enough to destroy the entire world eight times over.
"Our intelligence sources tell us that he has attempted to purchase high-strength aluminum tubes suitable for nucular weapons production."

To have no truck with someone or something is to want nothing to do with her, him or it.
Appears to be derivative from an archaic meaning of "truck" which can mean "to trade or barter".
Some dude just told me it's obsolete, but I use it anyway. And I've got no truck with people who say it's obsolete.

I want nothing to do with the BNP because i've got no truck with Nazis.
I have no truck with the whole Bushite conception of foreign policy.

City-state located to the west of Vassagonia and to the south of Sommerlund and the Wildlands. This city is independent of all surrounding kingdoms and is mainly a trading centre. It is usually first in line when Vassagonia starts getting expansionist.
Part of the Lone Wolf world, it appears substantially only in one of the Legends of Lone Wolf novels, where Lone Wolf briefly passes through the city and notices extremes of wealth and poverty (which is not, incidentally, an accurate depiction of the type of medieval city-state on which Casiorn is modelled).
