The Gigorans were a species of bipedal, sentient primates indigenous to the planet Gigor in the Outer Rim. Gigorans were similar in appearance to primates found on other worlds, their bodies covered in fur, having evolved from cave-dwellers on their arctic home planet. They had clawed hands with four fingers and an opposable thumb. Gigorans were exceptionally strong and hardy, which made them a target for slavers. Gigorans lived in relative peace on Gigor even after being discovered before the reign of the Empire. However, after the rise of the New Order, a group of smugglers began using their homeworld as a base of operations. After encountering the noncombative species, they began capturing Girgorans to sell into slavery, finding their physical characteristics and peaceful nature advantageous.
