Donta Gesset was the Governor of the planet Naboo late in the Galactic Civil War. Gesset greeted Princess Leia Organa when she arrived in Theed to secure Naboo's allegiance to the New Republic, and escorted the princess to Queen Sosha Soruna to begin the discussions. Gesset was present when the Galactic Empire launched Operation: Cinder against Naboo in an attempt to render it inhospitable.
