Gactimus was a religious figure with a large following among the insectoid Tritonites of the Triton Moons. Even the best religious scholars of the galaxy disagreed about who or what Gactimus was.[1] Gactimus's teachings banned entertainment and stimulants of any kind, making the Triton Moons notorious as being "dead".
Tritonite acolytes were a common site around the galaxy, handing out free tracts on Gactimus encouraging individual enlightenment.
Behind the scenes[]
Gactimus was created by Jason Fry for Zygerrian Takedown. Fry confirmed Gactimus was a religious figure, and indicated that Gactimus will be further developed in The Essential Atlas.[2] Following these mentions, The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia erroneously interpreted Gactimus as being a moon of Triton.[3]
