| - The "Grained One" is the alias given by Sadus the Guide to a largley unknown creature. He seems to be composed of separate particles of black sand, that together somehow produce a collective conciousness. The Jedi Master Vern breifly encountered one of this creature's particles. From the encounter, Vern has managed to conclude that the Grained One is alive in the same way a droid is alive; for, Vern saw, the "black sand" is really a swarm of nanobots - minute robots. These nanobots, acting together, give the Grained One some strange powers. For instance, sonic grenades to not effect him, although he can hear. His ability to "hear" is most likley drawn from the nanobot's ability to sense vibrations in the air, which are translated into sounds; however the nanobots can shut their receptors down, which stops the Grained One from "hearing" overly loud noises. Also, the nanobots, being so small, are able to create an almost infinite configuration of shapes. This allows the Grained One to assume the shape of anyone he wishes. If the nanobots twist themselves so that they reflect light in just the right manner, he can assume anyone's colors as well. His weaponry mainly consists of a small, handgun-sized gun that is reffered to as a "hammergun". How it works is largely unclear, although it is hypothesized that it shoots bolts of kinetic energy that draw power from the heat in the air. As these bolts draw more heat, they increase in speed and power, packing more and more punch with distance. A side effect is that frost forms, manifesting itself as a white trail behind the bolt. He also has command over a little-understood power source he calls "Chaoust". What exactly Chaoust is, or how it functions, is unknown, and its applications and limitations are also unknown. However, he has been known to use it to warp matter, hypnotize individuals, accelerate objects to the point of lethality, and initiate short-range "teleports". It is thought that the teleports function through quantum properties of entanglement, but how exactly they exploit this property is not documented.
