Gammit Chond

Gammit Chond was an Ithorian artist. Although he never traveled offworld, with some saying he never even ventured more than a day's walk from his house, Chond created a set of hand-drawn planetary maps based on many travelers' tales he had heard. His maps were later collected as the Galactic Atlas. Although not strictly accurate, they were in fact attempts at reproducing the feel of the worlds they depicted. Eventually, some of Chond's work found its way to the Graf Archive on Orchis 2, where they were exhumed from the Shadow Stacks by a lucky archivist. Later maps of Chond's were found and published in an updated edition of the Galactic Atlas.

Other works purported to be from Chond about alien species were unearthed by the archivist droid TR-33NA; due to their advanced age, much of it was faded, although what was recovered was published with added data points. In the publication, it was noted the original work was by a then-unidentified artist who may have been Chond.
