Balmtop was a depraved gud, a deity in the Gungan religion. A known underling of Mekamok, the god of destruction, Balmtop was thought to be responsible for all diseases and for the putrefaction of the bodies.[1]
Behind the scenes
The gud Balmtop was mentioned in the French edition of the 2001 video game Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds, in the database entry pertaining to the Gungan society. This detail did not feature in the English version of the entry. Several other deities such as Balam, Gobba and Nododo, are also exclusive to the French version of the database. Though most of these names went unreferenced in other works, Nododo was set to appear in the cancelled reference book The Essential Guide to Episode I.
