As stupid as they are ugly, some have commented, and if this is so Gamorreans must be stupid indeed. Short, rotund, with a piggish nose, tiny ear-flaps, beady yellow eyes, bristling with tusks and stubby horns, the Gamorrean race is also known for its propensity to drool. Among its endearing qualities, some say that Gamorreans have an excellent sense of smell, and often add the good-hearted wish that they cannot smell themselves.
 
Native to the planet Gamor near the Y'Toub system in the Outer Rim, these creatures were early conscripted or enslaved by the Hutts as guards or thugs in their criminal operations. The Gamorreans have hardly minded this arrangement, and have spawned broods all over the Outer Rim.
 
Socially, Gamorreans engage in a sort of pack behavior, but there aren't very strong bonds between pack-mates. Strangely, Gamorreans love to tell jokes. Unfortunately, those jokes are often physical, and sometimes end in the loss of a limb. Gamorreans find whining in such circumstances to be bad sportsmanship, or a lack of a sense of humor. Gamorreans are also classically fond of food, though they lack discriminating taste buds. It may be noted that while their average lifespan seems short, few Gamorrean death certificates list 'natural causes' as the cause of death.
