The Gakfedd clan, alternatively referred to as the Gakfedd tribe, comprised a group of Gamorreans who originated from the planet Pzob. During the year 12 ABY, Luke Skywalker, his allies, and the Gakfedd's opposing clan, the Klaggs, were all taken captive and subjected to brainwashing aboard the Imperial battlemoon known as The Eye of Palpatine. The indoctrination process nearly achieved its goals, resulting in the Gakfedd learning to communicate in Basic and transforming them into reasonably competent stormtroopers. They were perpetually engaged in conflict with the Klaggs, whom they regarded as Rebels. Following their removal from the battlemoon, they declined reintegration and instead entered into negotiations with Drost Elegin to serve as his personal protectors.
The Gakfedd provided support to Luke Skywalker, Cray Mingla, and Nichos Marr when the trio found themselves marooned on a particular planet.
