INFO: The Vodrans were a species of humanoid reptiles.
RACE: Vodrans
HEIGHT: 1.75 Meters Tall
SKIN: Brownish-olive
DISTINCTION: Spiny horns around their faces
LANGUAGE: Huttese
HOMEWORLD:Vodran was a murky, humid planet in the Si'Klaata Cluster, on the Ac'fren Spur of the Hutt Space. Its surface featured jungles and swamps, and was home to the reptilian Vodran people. It was also the original planet where the garbage eating dianoga evolved, a pest that eventually spread throughout the galaxy.
The planet was taken over by the Hutts under the Treaty of Vontor 25,100 BBY. It was brutally subjugated by the Galactic Empire, which destroyed many of the world's cities.
BIOLOGY AND APPEARANCE:They had tough skin ranging in coloration from olive to brown, and a small frame of spiny horns around their faces similar to a Nikto. Though warm blooded, they laid reptilian eggs, with an egg clutch typically producing two or three Vodran young. They were native to the planet Vodran on the fringes of the Si'klaata Cluster.
CULTURE AND HISTORY:Before the founding of the Galactic Republic, the Vodrans were approached by Dojundo the Hutt, an emissary from the Hutt Empire, who wanted to recruit the Vodrans for the Hutts' conflict with the legendary Xim the Despot. The Vodrans, believing the Hutts to be evil deities, agreed to serve them. Their presence, along with those of the Weequay, Klatooinians and Nikto, was instrumental in the defeat of Xim's army of war droids at the Third Battle of Vontor.
After the victory at Vontor, the Hutts had the Vodran representative, Kl'ieutu Mutela, along with the representatives of the Klatooinans and Nikto, sign their people into "eternal" servitude—an obligation the Vodran fulfilled faithfully.
In time, Vodrans adopted Hutt culture as their own. Their society was organized into miniature kajidics, and their family clans answered directly to the Hutt Clan of Ancients. Their dealings with the rest of the galaxy always went through their Hutt masters.
