Unidentified Hutt (Riegenn Hetuu)

A member of the Hutt species who was considered to be eccentric hired the notorious hunter Riegenn Hetuu around 3743 BBY to locate a live k'lor'slug queen, a creature native to the planet Korriban. Hetuu's client held a gladiatorial tournament annually on the planet Nal Hutta, and the Hutt intended for the queen to be the highlight of the tournament. However, when Hetuu arrived to deliver the creature, the Hutt and Hetuu were both killed when the hunter opened his cargo bay: around four hundred k'lor'slugs which the queen had spawned poured out and ate them both. The incident inspired the term "a Hutt's cry," a reference to the sound made by a swarm of k'lor'slugs.
