Bothan Nether Rot

"Do I want to know what "Bothan Nether Rot" is?''" "''If you ever develop purple-green discoloration in the trouser area, tell me so I can leave the ship immediately."

- The Hero of Tython and Doc

Bothan Nether Rot was a disease that affected most humanoid species, causing a purple-green skin discoloration around the upper legs. By the time of the Cold War between the Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic, a cure had not been found for the disease.

Behind the scenes
Bothan Nether Rot was first mentioned in the video game Star Wars: The Old Republic by BioWare, during an optional conversation with the Jedi Knight companion character Doc.
