Successor Question

For this article to be fair, it should reflect BOTH organisations which claim to be the heirs of this faction. - Drak`ora Sabosen 13:07, 2 November 2012 (GMT)

If Percilia Kajidic agrees with this change, I'm fine with it, but does Percilia's Hutt Grand Council claim to be the heir to Angobba's Hutt Council faction? I believe Percilia's group claims unbroken descent from the fictional Hutt Grand Council in the Star Wars Expanded Universe and not from the in-game Hutt Council faction led by Angobba that was destroyed in Year 5. Percilia's Hutt Grand Council would need to rewrite/retcon its existing backstory to include the events surrounding Angobba's defunct Hutt Council. However, this change would set an important precedent for other Holocron articles: Angobba's Hutt Council was an actual Combine Member Group (CMG) and its documented history as related in this article were in-game events that actually occurred. (Some players in the Hutt Cartel were members of this old CMG.) In contrast, Percilia's Hutt Grand Council has no IC-affiliation to Angobba's old one other than using its name. If we adopt this approach, the new unrelated "Pentastar Alignment" may claim to be the official successor to the old "Pentastar Alignment" even though it isn't and we would have to retcon the history of the old "Pentastar Alignment" to account for all future unrelated successors. This would apply to all factions who share similar names from the Star Wars universe. -- Rupert Havok, 2 November 2012
