Description:
The Hutts provide the knowledge and insight that fuels trade throughout many sectors of the galaxy. Despite the low opinion with which Hutts are regarded by many in the galactic community, it is a fact that, without their efforts, many planets and systems that are now quite wealthy would still be poor, empty worlds, barely able to survive.

While Hutts themselves may not be common, their influence can be felt throughout innumerable systems in the Outer Rim, and it is obvious that the scope of their power is continually widening, making inevitable that space travelers will often encounter beings who have been affected, knowingly or unknowingly, by the policies of a Huttese trader.

Hutts have concentrated their efforts in many vital industries, not the least of which is the "business" of crime. It is commonly believed that Hutts control the criminal empires of the galaxy and while that rumor is not entirely true, it does have a strong basis in fact.

Special Abilities:
Force Resistance: Hutts have an innate defense against Force-based mind manipulation techniques and roll double their Perception dice to resist such attacks. However, because of this, Hutts are not believed to be able to learn Force skills.

Story Factors:
Self-Centered: Hutts cannot look "beyond themselves" (or their offspring or parents) in their considerations. However, because they are master manipulators, they can compromise - "I'll give him what he wants to get what I want." They cannot be philanthropic without ulterior motives.
Reputation: Hutts are almost universally despised, even by those who find themselves benefitting from the hutt's activities. Were it not for the ring of protection with which the Hutt's surround themselves, they would surely be exterminated within a few years.
