Rogoe

"Rogoe had been secretly plotting to maken the Gungan cities fighten each other."

- Rugor Nass, chronicling the war between the Gungans

Rogoe was a male Gungan warlord who was the boss of the city of Spearhead on the planet Naboo in 3,000 BBY, during a period of constant war between the Gungan tribes. In that time, Rogoe became the manipulator of the hostilities; he used several methods to continue the conflict so he could opress and enslave the smaller Gungan tribes while the larger ones were preoccupied with fighting one another. Eventually, he became concerned about Gallo, the boss of the city of Otoh Sancture, who had refused to take part in any violence. Rogoe believed Gallo would be powerful enough to defeat Rogoe's forces were he to take a side, and so the warmonger ordered a tribe of carnivorous, half-wild bursas to destroy Gallo's Otoh Sancture. Gallo, however, was away from the city and survived to discover that Rogoe had destroyed his people. He then defeated the bursas remaining in his territory and began a campaign to unite the Gungan tribes against Rogoe. After convincing the other cities to join him, Gallo led his Grand Army to Spearhead and fought Rogoe's minions. Rogoe remained in his fortress during the battle and was killed when Gallo's army destroyed it.

Biography
"Rogoe liven, and hesa sent the bursas to pound yousa for good. Rogoe figures hesa pound Gallo before Gallo decides hesa wants to fight."

- One of Rogoe's militiagungs to Gallo

Rogoe was a male Gungan who was the boss of the city of Spearhead on the planet Naboo in 3,000 BBY, during a long period of war between the Gungan tribes. Rogoe eventually emerged as the most powerful warlord on Naboo and became the manipulator of the war, determined for it to continue so he could harass and enslave the smaller tribes while the bigger ones kept one another busy through warfare. One of Rogoe's strategies was to allow himself to fade into obscurity such that most Gungans believed he was dead or simply a myth, with those loyal to him among the few aware of his existence. To continue the war, Rogoe had his soldiers, the militiagungs, use insidious tactics to force the cities to keep training armies, such as kidnapping Boss Hoxie from the city of Otoh Raban and placing him in a prison camp. He also used the riches gained in the war to heavily fortify Spearhead, including building an underwater fortress for himself to live in.

Rogoe eventually became concerned about Gallo, the boss of the city of Otoh Sancture. Gallo had refused to join the war and fight other Gungans, as he saw it as being immoral to the Gungan deities, the Guds, but Rogoe believed that if Gallo changed his mind and took a side in the war, the boss would be powerful enough to destroy Rogoe due to Otoh Sancture's resources. To ensure such an event would not happen, Rogoe ordered a clan of dangerous, half-wild bursas to destroy Otoh Sancture and kill Gallo. The city was demolished completely, but Gallo avoided slaughter as he was away hunting nerfs for the city's annual Sacred Feast. Mourning the loss of his settlement, Gallo wandered through the forests and eventually found one of Rogoe's militiagungs, who had been tasked with leading the bursas to Otoh Sancture. The militiagung revealed Rogoe's machinations, and Gallo swore to avenge his people by destroying Rogoe and ending the war. The boss created a small forest base and gained enough troops to destroy the bursas that had taken their residence on Otoh Sancture's ruins.

Allied with the rogue Gungan Marsune, Gallo began his crusade to defeat Rogoe. His first move was to bring the Gungan tribes together, resolving the issues Rogoe had created for each city and thus removing their justifications for continued fighting. Gallo's campaign included destroying one of Rogoe's spaceports to give its resources to the city of Otoh Jahai, and rescuing Boss Hoxie from Rogoe's prison camp. Soon Gallo had gained enough forces to form a Grand Army powerful enough to defeat Rogoe.

Gallo led his army to Spearhead, ready to destroy Rogoe and bring peace to the Gungans. After gaining access to the bongo submarines manufactured by the Bongomeken Collective, allowing his forces to assault the underwater portion of the city, Gallo attacked Spearhead. After destroying most of the land-based areas of Rogoe's city, the Grand Army attacked the warlord's underwater keep. Rogoe jeered at the attackers, telling them that they would not be able to pass the energy shields protecting his fortress, but Gallo told his men to press on, proclaiming that nothing could stop them. Gallo's forces destroyed the shields and then went on to destroy the keep. Rogoe cursed Gallo for defeating him and perished, ending his reign of terror on Naboo.

Spearhead was rebuilt by Gallo and renamed Otoh Gunga; he declared it a city where no Gungans would be ruled by tyrants such as Rogoe. Three thousand years later, the events of the war between the Gungan tribes were chronicled by Gallo's descendant Rugor Nass, who included details of Rogoe's deeds in his recordings.

Personality and traits
"Yousa wil never get past mesa shields, puny toy soldiers!"

- Rogoe jeering Gallo's army at Spearhead

Rogoe was a green-skinned Gungan and was a tyrant who harassed the other tribes for his own personal gain. He was determined to continue the war between the Gungans at any cost and committed several atrocities against the other tribes to continue it, such as having Otoh Sancture destroyed to ensure Boss Gallo would not become a threat. Rogoe concealed his presence heavily, and many Gungans believed him to be long dead, or even never to have existed at all. However some individuals who were not loyal to him were aware of his existence, such as Boss Copek of the city Otoh Urs.

Rogoe formed and maintained a large army of militiagungs to fight for him, placing them in patrols across the forests of Naboo and keeping a large number to guard Spearhead. Alongside his Gungan forces the Boss also controlled at least one bursa clan, which he used in his attempt to eliminate Boss Gallo. Rogoe used the wealth he gained in the war to build structures across Naboo, heavily fortifying Spearhead and constructing a forest prison camp. Rogoe adored Spearhead, considering it to be beautiful, and he cursed Gallo when the opponent destroyed it. Rogoe was overconfident in the abilities of the city's energy shields; when they were attacked, he told Gallo that the rival forces would never get past them. Nevertheless, the shields were eventually destroyed.

Behind the scenes
"Oh and by the way this is Boss Rogoe"

- Translated Aurebesh text identifying a Gungan as Rogoe

Rogoe appears in the 2001 PC video game Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds and its 2002 expansion, where he serves as the primary antagonist of the first three levels of the Gungan campaign. Prior to the games release, Rogoe was mentioned in its strategy guide. He also recieved an entry in The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia, published in 2008 by Del Rey.

In Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds, Rogoe only appears once, in the introductory clip for the second level of the Gungan campaign, "The Gungan Who Would Be Boss". The image shown in that clip has an Ankura Gungan standing in front of a statue, who is identified as Rogoe in the Aurebesh text included in the picture. In the third Gungan campaign level, "Raid on Spearhead", Rogoe's voice is heard. The subtitles in that level do not name him as the speaker; instead they name him as a Gungan trooper, but the speaker says that Rogoe's keep was theirs, indicating Rogoe as the speaker. The voice actor for Rogoe was uncredited in the game.
