Goru was a hulking Weequay male and a lieutenant of the Ohnaka Gang during the Clone Wars. He was captain of a Corona-class armed frigate.
Biography
Around 20 BBY, Goru was a part of a team led by Hondo Ohnaka to attack a ship filled with Jedi Younglings, in order to steal their lightsaber crystals. Goru was knocked unconscious by several of the Younglings during the process.
Later, Goru and fellow captain Sabo were contacted by Jiro, who wished them to join with him in betraying Hondo Ohnaka to Darth Maul and Savage Opress. Goru immediately agreed with Jiro's terms, while Sabo was still uncertain, wishing to contact Ohnaka. Maul killed Sabo in front of a hologram of Hondo.
Goru fought for Maul in a skirmish on the surface of Florrum. However, midway through the battle, Hondo was able to convince Jiro and Goru to come back to his side. The re-allied pirates chased the two Zabrak off of the planet.
Personality and traits
Goru favored a blaster pistol of the same model as Frenk bounty hunter Rumi Paramita's.
