Talk:Gungan/Legends

Gung?
Where does it say that an individual is known as a "Gung"? Qui-Gon, in Episode I, says of Jar-Jar, "This Gungan may be help." I'm not disputing it, I just wanna know. :-)--Master Dakari 20:01, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Amphibious?

 * Are Gungans truly able to breathe both air and water, or do they merely hold their breath for an incredible amount of time like frogs do? One would think that if they breathed underwater, they wouldn't need sealed cities and bongos, or would need to seal their nostrils when swimming.  The WotC d20 RPG suggests they hold their breath, similar to the Falleen.
 * I'm gonna go with breath holding. Although, It's not easy to have a civilisation completely submerged, even if they were water breathers. -- Doo Doo 07:43, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

Clumsy
The culture section says in paranthesis that Gungans are clumsy. Nothing in the article supports this. The fact that they have superflexible skeletons should even suggest them capable of great grace. Is this detail just Jar Jar-inspired, or were they a clumsy species?DarthMRN


 * I do not believe that they are clumsy in nature. Red Head Rider 22:22, 30 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I don't think they were a clumsy species; this detail was probably inspired by Jar Jar, who isn't exactly an "average specimen" of his race. Remeber, Jar Jar *was* exiled for being clumsy, which leads me to think that his race frowns upon clumsiness. Plus, consider that triple somersault Jar Jar did when diving into the lake; tells me that they're flexible, not inherently clumsy.
