PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
To the untrained observer, Sankarra looks primarily akin to a typical Otolla Gungan such as Jar-Jar Binks or Roos Tarpals. Yet, his deep green skin, stockier build, and reddish eyes denote the ancestry of an Ankura. He shows signs of maturity, namely in the moustache-like growths Also on his body are multitude of scars from previous raids and battles. He also tends to wear blood-red warpaint / tattoos.

STRENGTHS
Fighter: Having spent time as a militiagung, Sankarra knows his way around weaponry of all kinds
Voodoo: Since the Netherworld openings during the Cataclysm on Naboo, this Gungan has found himself able to access what appears to be an arcane aspect of the Force. He seems to wield it mostly akin to Dathomiri magicks or Sith sorcery.
WEAKNESSES
Bigot: Having developed resentment during the Cataclysm against the human Naboo, Sankarra has grown into something of a xenophobe. He tends to despise specifically the Naboo, but sometimes this bleeds into all variant of humans in the Galaxy.
Outcast: Because of his connections to a group that is partly to blame for recent raids against the Naboo, he is considered a pariah in most of the Gungan community. Additionally, his mixed heritage is looked down upon by certain members of Gungan hierarchy, making him feel even more like an outsider.
HISTORY
Sankarra Tomo, a Gungan halfbreed born of an Ankura noble and an Otolla priestess, grew up in poverty, raised by his deeply spiritual grandfather. Despite his dual heritage making him an outcast, Sankarra was groomed to follow in his grandfather's footsteps as a priest. He was taught the sacred traditions of the Gungan pantheon. However, his life took a dramatic turn during the Naboo Cataclysm, when he was drafted into his city’s militia amidst the chaos of the Netherworld rift.
During the conflict, Sankarra experienced a life-altering vision as his latent Force sensitivity awakened. An entity claiming to be the warrior-god Balam appeared to him, declaring him chosen to lead his people in reclaiming their ancestral glory. Consumed by this divine calling, Sankarra abandoned his priestly aspirations, instead embracing Balam’s mandate of war. Preaching that the human Naboo were invaders desecrating Gungan lands, he rallied disillusioned Gungans to his cause, leading some of the recent raids against human settlements as acts of holy retribution.
Now a charismatic and dangerous extremist, Sankarra leads a growing sect of militant Gungans from hidden enclaves deep in the swamps. His belief in Balam's guidance fuels his crusade to expel humans from Naboo and restore Gungan sovereignty.
