Gungan

Gungans are amphibious, resilient beings from the lush swamps and underwater cities of Naboo. Though often underestimated by outsiders due to their animated speech and tribal customs, Gungans are inventive, brave, and tactically sharp. Their societies are built around strong community bonds, artistic traditions, and a warrior ethos rooted in defense and honor. Known for their elastic limbs, swimming prowess, and use of native weapons like the electropole and cesta, Gungans can move swiftly and unpredictably in combat. Their natural agility and unique physiology make them excellent scouts, guerrilla fighters, and engineers of biomechanical devices. Despite their cheerful demeanor and eccentric mannerisms, they remain fiercely loyal to their people and culture—and will go to great lengths to protect both.
