Gactimus was a moon orbiting the planet Triton. Several religious retreats were established there by the insectoid Tritonites.[1] All spacers stopping on the moon before continuing on their way via the Rimma Trade Route were required to tithe away possessions to the religious idol Gactimus before leaving.
Behind the scenes[]
The name Gactimus was first created by Jason Fry and received mentions in Zygerrian Takedown and Deader than a Triton Moon; however, in both these sources, according to Fry, "Gactimus is a religious figure."[2] Following this, Gactimus was mentioned in The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia, which described it as a moon, rather than an individual.[1]
