The criminal syndicate known as the Gundark gang operated on Rori, a moon of Nabooian, during the era of the Galactic Civil War. This group derived its name from the gundark, a creature renowned as one of the most intimidating in the galaxy. Their operations were centered around a base situated close to the settlement of Narmle.

During the year 1 ABY, Ponda Baba, an Aqualish with a criminal background, resided on Rori. Seeking to replace the limb he had forfeited on Tatooine, he employed several Gundark enforcers and carried out multiple burglaries targeting cybernetic facilities across Rori. Nevertheless, the Royal Naboo Security Forces swiftly identified the Aqualish's actions. A pilot in the service of Lieutenant Tarc launched an assault on the Gundark Base in proximity to Narmle, compelling the Gundark criminals to divulge the whereabouts of Ponda Baba's encampment.
