Romort Raort

Romort Raort was a sadistic criminal from Irith. His main joy in life came from watching the suffering of others. As a child, he would steal money from other children. Later in life, he joined the Elaginn gang, a group of spice-jackers. Raort killed Elaginn and then took over the gang, building up his contacts and power in the hope of expanding his base of operations.

Biography
Romort Raort grew up on the planet Irith, a polluted and overcrowded world located on the Ootmian Pabol in Hutt Space. As a youth, Raort bullied other children for their lunch money and reveled in the suffering of others. Eventually he fell in with the Elaginn gang, a group of spice-jackers headed by a man named Elaginn. In a bid to usurp power, Raort murdered Elaginn, flexi-pasting the gang leader to a chair and defenestrating him. Raort wrote off Elaginn's death as an accidental suicide and took control of the gang, claiming it to be Elaginn's wish. Raort was soon able to build up the gang to one of the largest spice-jacking rings in Hutt Space. He made deals with the Hutt clans which allowed him to operate along most of the major galactic spice routes, though he still wished to branch out. He realized that he would have to wait years before he had grown enough influence to challenge the Hutts.
