Rugor Nass was a proud and bombastic Gungan male who served as the Boss of the Gungan High Council, governing his people from the underwater city of Otoh Gunga beneath Naboo's Lake Paonga. He also held the title of governor and had once served in the Gungan Grand Army.
During the Trade Federation's invasion of Naboo, Nass initially refused to help the human Naboo, but was swayed when Queen Padme Amidala knelt and pleaded for unity between their peoples. He committed the Gungan Grand Army to the alliance that expelled the Federation and made Jar Jar Binks a Bombad General.
After the victory, Nass joined Amidala in a lasting peace and championed the colonization of the moon Ohma-D'un. He was succeeded as council head by Lyonie before the Clone Wars, and mourned Amidala at her funeral. First voiced by Brian Blessed, he appears in The Phantom Menace and Revenge of the Sith.
