Ghorrka has spent his life on the metropolitan world of Lantillies. Unfortunately unlike some of his species he has not had the opportunities they have had to join the guilds and companies of Lantillies and instead has had to make his living illicitly. Recently the galaxy has been torn asunder by the Clone Wars. While Ghorrka has tried to take advantage of the chaos it has been difficult, especially with Lantillies being the original headquarters for Cerulan Spear Command and thus under higher security. So in a way he was relieved to hear that the war was over, finally people would think more of other things besides potential threats to their well-being and livelihoods. That was before he heard of the subjugation of Kashyyyk.
Now Ghorrka sought to escape the reach of the Empire. Maybe he'd head out to the Centrality or maybe the Tingel Arm. He'd rather avoid the Hutts if he could, but perhaps the Kreetan Narrows would be safe enough, being on the edge of their territory. However to do any of these things he'd need money. So he left his safehouse amongst the tenements for low-class laborers in Lantillies industries for the nearby spaceport. He kept to the shadowy alleyways, watching for someone who looked like a worthwhile mark. Eventually he saw a man who looked well off enough, but didn't have any bodyguards or other accompaniment. So Ghorrka tried to position himself in a nearby alley, creeping slowly on his target. Unfortunately, he misjudged the man's speed and so missed him, another attempt failed as well.
After some time looking for another mark, Ghorrka decided to take another, more risky, but also potentially more lucrative approach. He made his way to the docking bays and looked for one that seemed quiet and unlooked after. So he snuck in and found a terminal. He then hacked into the spaceport network and brought up information on spaceport activity. He found out that a yacht belonging to a low-level executive on a business trip was docked nearby. So, Ghorrka decided to check out that one. However, when leaving he saw a group of spaceport security heading towards the docking bay he was in. This was because he had accidentally alerted them to his presence in the system. He managed to escape and head to the yacht.
Unfortunately he is spotted sneaking into the docking bay. He hears a cry for spaceport security go out and decides to take the risk of breaking in quickly, grabbing anything valuable and then running. It takes him a moment to open the hatch and he runs inside. Inside, he finds several datapads, a credit stick and a box with a necklace in side. He throws these into his utility belt and runs. Unfortunately as he gets outside he is stunned by a barrage of blue rings.
He awakens later in the spaceport jail. After some time of waiting, eating some food and more waiting the guard comes in with a disreputable looking man. "Yes, this is the one. He escaped from my master Forba two weeks ago."
Ghorrka recognized the name Forba. He was the only Hutt living on Lantillies, mostly because the famed Lantillian Planetary Security Forces or Forba himself had driven the rest off. If Forba was interested in him his life was about to get very interesting, but at least he wouldn't be in jail anymore. Heck, association with Forba would take some of the heat off his back as even the LPSF was somewhat leary of provoking the Hutt. However, the Hutt would ensure he was paid back in full, and then some. (So he loses some Criminal obligation, but ultimately has a net increase in his overall obligation due to his new Debt)
Ghorrka followed his liberator to Ghorrka's townhouse. The well-appointed, even extravagant house was a far-cry from most high-class dwellings on the planet, which like the starships they built were conservative in design and far from flashy. Down the main hall was Forba's audience chamber, filled with the usual lackeys, mercenaries, neer-do'-wells, performers and slaves. In the center was the Hutt himself, typical of his breed in physical attributes, except that he was darker in skin tone than most. Ghorkka stood before Forba the Hutt, and waited to be addressed.
"Ah, Ghorkka. I hadn't bothered to follow you're career up to this
point, but I couldn't help but notice you're little performance earlier
today? I wonder what exactly you hoped to accomplish? Perhaps it has
something to do with the recent invasion of you're homeworld?"
"Indeed mighty Forba, I was attempting to find a way to escape Lantillies for more... hospitable parts of the galaxy."
"Unfortunately it seems you did not do so well. Fortunately I was
there to help you. Of course I will expect that you repay for my
generosity."
"Well then I will be certain to do whatever it is you want. I certainly would not want to disappoint my benefactor."
Forba laughs a great, deep belly laugh, "I am pleased. I needed a
new minion, one less associated with me than my more experienced
employees for a... job I need doing."
"You see, one of the gangs in the spaceport has been neglecting
there payments to me. Furthermore, I have seen evidence that they are up
to something. I need you to infiltrate their hideout and find out
what."
"Of course I will give you time to rest. You may do so in the
general quarters. Later, you will be told what the mission entails."
So Ghorrka found himself in the employ of a Hutt, something he wanted to avoid. Will he be able to fulfill his obligation to Forba well enough that Ghorkka allows him to leave and doesn't either get angered if he fails or decide he has outlived his usefulness if he succeeds and sell him into slavery? Perhaps Ghorrka will attempt to escape and see his debts turn into a bounty on his head! If he does leave where will he go?
