The Hutt Cartel, also known as The Cartel, is an underworld consortium led by Hutts which employs mercenaries and smugglers of various species. Although its foundation date occurred on Year 10 Day 60, the Cartel claims symbolic descent from the earlier Hutt Council organized by the legendary Angobba the Hutt circa Year 3. The perennial ruler of the Cartel is the vile gangster, Voragga the Hutt. His second-in-command is Tobba Nokko. The ramshackle organization is staffed by a diverse lineup of repugnant henchmen including Gamorrean thugs and Rodian enforcers. Currently, the Kubazi assassin Qaun Wain serves as majordomo of the Cartel and thus supervises its day-to-day operations, with Feth Ophoxi as his debonair adviser.

The Cartel is rumored to possess a large independent army, and the Cartel offers this private military on the open market. The Cartel's military is a superficially-loyal and poorly-equipped security force that consists of dimwitted guards, outdated vehicles, and obsolete starfighters. The Cartel also specializes in obtaining illicit goods that have been prudishly outlawed by the various galactic regimes. If an individual wishes to obtain contraband such as deathsticks, insanity-causing holopuzzles, or Giggledust, they should consider the Hutt Cartel as a possible source. Last but not least, special customers occasionally receive the pleasurable services of the organization's Twi'leki dancing girls.

Description

From the darkened alleyways of Mos Eisley to the crowded spaceports of Corellia, the scoundrels who lurk in the galaxy's underworld come in all shapes and sizes. Some are Human, and some not. Some thrive within the core worlds of the Galactic Empire, while others subsist in the backwater worlds of the Outer Rim. A few are deadly assassins, while most are cowardly thugs. Common to all, however, is the desire to make a fast credit, regardless of how many innocent sentient beings are harmed in the process.

The Hutt Cartel is a wretched hive for such ilk and is seeking the scum of the galaxy to augment its ranks. To join, you must be willing to fraternize with Zygerrian slavers, spice-smugglers, bounty hunters, gun runners, Rodian enforcers, slimy double-crossing no-good swindlers, and anyone else the cartel does business with. We bump uglies with the lowest of the low and you must accept that. Above all, you must be willing to serve and to obey the vile gangster, Voragga Zuuma Ajurr, the grand overlord of the cartel.

Filthy and corpulent, Voragga the Hutt rules the cartel with an iron fist from his desert alcazar on Reltooine. Renowned for his carnal appetite and penchant for licking Twi'leki slave girls, Voragga is a shrewd businessman and a powerful voice among the Hutt clans. However, both Voragga and his more reputable cousin Tobba Nokko would never condescend to manage the daily operations of the cartel. Instead, they hired an underpaid majordomo to do so.

The current majordomo is a weak-minded Twi'leki male who humbly serves Voragga the Hutt and dutifully stewards his business affairs. As majordomo, the steward oversees certain projects on behalf of other individuals; in this case, those individuals are the Hutts. Under his tenure, the group has expanded its lucrative activities from selling Huttese pornography to peddling the finest death-sticks in the galaxy, one hundred percent pure.

History

Origins

Voragga Zuuma Ajurr formed the Hutt Cartel from the ashes of the earlier Hutt Council.

During a more civilized age when the Old Republic reigned, the Cartel was a vast syndicate that encompassed all of Hutt Space, a dangerous swath of the galaxy between the Mid Rim and the Outer Rim Territories. A grand Hutt Council controlled the region by overseeing the activities of the Hutt clans — kajidics — and their business syndicates. Their capital was located in the Y’toub system and was called Nal Hutta which translates as Glorious Jewel in Huttese. The terrestrial bog-world of Nal Hutta was owned by the Hutt kajidics who also ruled its orbiting satellite, Nar Shaddaa, colloquially known as The Smuggler’s Moon. Nal Hutta and Nar Shaddaa were once the center of a popular galactic trade route. This was before the dark times, of course, before the Empire. With the rise of the Galactic Empire and the encroachment of Eidola Pirates into Hutt Space, the Cartel began to fall into ruin and disrepair. Within two years, the Hutt Council led by Angobba the Hutt lost its power and virtually disappeared. This decline changed with the emergence of the Zuuma kajidic led by Voragga the Hutt. Renowned for his carnal appetite and penchant for licking Twi'leki slave girls, Voragga is a shrewd businessman and a powerful voice in the Hutt Cartel. the Zuuma kajidic is not afraid to dirty its three-fingered hands. This smaller clan controls pleasure dens and safe houses on various planets. They also dabble in the arms business and allegedly control a portion of the spice trade.

Joining Voragga in his endeavor was his distant cousin and shrewd associate, Tobba the Hutt, the leader of the Nokko kajidic. The Nokko kajidic is a rare exception among the Hutt clans because it abstains from criminal affairs. The members of the Nokko kajidic dwell in small outposts scattered throughout the galaxy and their livelihood is derived from business arrangements with other races. Their kajidic became famous for their financial skills as investors and traders. However, due to the rampant prejudice against Hutts, rumors still persist that the Nokko kajidic specializes in money laundering, spice-smuggling, gun-running, slavery, and other shady matters. Together, the Zuuma and Nokko kajidics forged a business alliance and restored the Hutt Cartel to its rightful place as the parasite of galactic trade. Together with his distant cousin and vitriolic competitor of Tobba Nokko, Voragga assumed leadership of the Hutt Cartel. Under his auspices, the Hutt Council was re-established and the cartel reinvigorated.

However, both Voragga and his cousin Tobba would never condescend to managing the mundane day-to-day operations of the organization. Instead, they hired an underpaid majordomo to do so. A majordomo is the head person of a domestic staff, one who acts on behalf of an absentee owner of a typically very large residence or corporation.
