Jabba's Palace/Legends



Jabba's Palace, made of stone and metal, was located in the desert known as the Dune Sea on the planet of Tatooine. While Jabba's home was on Nal Hutta, he used his Tatooine palace as a base of operations for his business ventures on that planet.

The palace was originally a monastery built 700 years BBY by a strict religious order called the B'omarr Monks. The massive compound was built on a remote world, far from any settlements, so as to amplify the Monk's detachment from the universe. This environment allowed them to concentrate on their studies, furthering their goal of complete disconnection from all external sensation. 150 years after its construction it was discovered by the outcast and rogue Alkhara, who began to use it as a base of operations. The Monks by and large ignored him, and the two groups cohabitated peacefully for 34 years. Eventually, Jabba discovered the fortress as well, and forced Alkhara out in 516 BBY.

Jabba equipped the palace with a number of security devices, including a semi-intelligent droid gatewatcher built into the main entrance. This droid, little more than an electronic eye on a stick embedded in the gate itself, would interrogate visitors before deciding whether to allow them to enter. Jabba's major domo, Bib Fortuna, would usually also interrogate visitors who got this far before allowing them an audience with Jabba himself. Jabba also employed Gamorrean guards to act as his bodyguards and security force. He also built a hangar bay to house his sail barge, Khetanna, and numerous repulsor skiffs.

Jabba's audience chamber


Jabba would recline on a huge dais in his audience chamber, surrounded by a motley crew of bounty hunters (sometimes including Boba Fett) and other criminals seeking his favor. His every whim was catered to, with live animals such as gorks and Klatooine paddy frogs to eat, concerts from musicians, dancing girls (often providing more than just dance) and Salacious Crumb, his court jester.

A corner alcove of the audience chamber housed Jabba's trophies. For a short time, these included the form of Han Solo, frozen in carbonite.
