Gamorrean/Legends

Gamorreans are porcine humanoids, averaging about 1.8 meters in height and often weighing more than 100 kilograms. They are quite strong, although generally considered less intelligent than the norm. On their home planet Gamorreans exist in a sort of tribal political system dominated by the females, sows. This society is much like that of primitive humans.

As a result of their physical characteristics and low intelligence, Gamorreans away from their home planet are usually employed as mercenary fighters, guards, or heavy labourers. For example, the crime boss Jabba the Hutt was fond of hiring them because they were so inexpensive. One notable exception to this was the Wraith Squadron pilot Voort SaBring, who was biochemically altered by the BinRing Corporation to bring his attention span and intelligence more in line with humans'.
