Mekamok was one of the male guds in the religion of the Gungans on the planet Naboo. Serving as the god of destruction, he was believed to be the only one of the guds who lay outside the authority of Oma-Oma, the Gungans' principal deity. Mekamok oversaw other deities relating to mortality and decay on Naboo, such as Balmtop, the god of putrefaction and disease.[1]

Despite his evil nature, Mekamok still resided in Ossorus, the home of the guds, although the guds loyal to Oma-Oma avoided him. Mekamok and his acolytes still posed a threat to Ossorus, which in turn was guarded by Balam, a formerly mortal militiagung turned into the god of war by Oma-Oma.[1]

Behind the scenes

Mekamok's name could be randomly selected as a leader of the Gungan faction in the standard game mode of the 2001 LucasArts video game Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds.[2] The character's background was elaborated upon in the Gungan DataBank entry in the game's French edition.[1]
