The Muskegs were a fanatical and violent religious group of Gungans, situated on Naboo. They were in conflict with the Naboo people as they believed that Gungans should be the only sentient species allowed to inhabit Naboo.
In 1 ABY, they tried to recruit the wanted murderer Hunnos Jarkey to assassinate members of the Naboo human government but the latter refused. Lieutenant Khartoor of the Violent Crimes Division later tasked RSF agents to investigate Dubbin Sharr's group of Muskegs fanatics near Theed.
Boss Rugor Nass later sent a spacer to recover a Gungan artifact that they had stolen from him. The spacer fought several Muskeg anarchists, extremists and reactionaries in the Lasay Swamp; and finally recovered the artifact from Flossin Noz, a Muskeg zealot chief.
The Muskegs appeared in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts, prior to its closure on December 15, 2011. The Muskegs were added to the game as part of the "Legacy Quest" with the release of the "Publish 25," a.k.a. the "New Game Enhancements," on November 15, 2005.
