INFO: The Gacerites were bipedal sapients indigenous to Gacerian. It seemed most of their bodies', except for their heads, were elongated. Gacerite soldiers were known to use the song "Aria Callet'dira" for motivation.
During the reign of the Galactic Empire, the sector governor permitted the Gacerites to rule themselves with little oversight. This encouraged them to take a liking to Imperial rule, and they happily followed their governor's laws.

HOMEWORLD:Gacerian was the fourth planet in the Gacerian system, it was home to many Gacerite gem mines. Ala Cornin represented it in the New Republic Senate. The Imperial governor on planet was compassionate and kind, allowing the general populace to run the planet. Thus, the Gacerites were happy to abide by Imperial values and obey the laws dictated to them through their governor.
BIOLOGY AND APPEARANCE:The Gacerites of the hot, desert world, Gacerian, average 2.5 meters in height, and are thin humanoids with spindly limbs. They are completely hairless. Gacerite eyes are tiny, which protects their optic nerves from their sun's glare. Their ears, however, are huge and exceptionally keen.
CULTURE AND HISTORY:Unfortunately, the mixture of the artist creative mind and the strictness of order make for a rather bad social combination; the Gacerites are extremely poor at governing themselves. Thus, they welcome the order imposed by the Empire on their world. The Imperial Governor meets once every Gacerian week with a group of Gacerites and goes over routine matters. The Gacerites are very pro-Imperial and report all suspected Rebel operatives to the governor.
Thanks to their cultural sensitivity to matters of etiquette, Gacerites make excellent translators and diplomatic aides. Many travelers who own 3PO units seek out Gacerite programmers to improve their droids.
Gacerian is famous for its high-quality gemstones. The Gacerites mine them using the most advanced known, sonic mining equipment. This is probably the most manual labor done by the delicate Gacerites. The Gacerites, at the governor's insistence, are considered employees rather than slaves of the Empire.
