Ambassador Wrath

Achuta, slug-brethren!
With the way the galaxy is carved up at the moment, the Hutts are potentially a very big player, especially with the Alliance providing a nice juicy buffer between the Cartel and the Empire - no more of those meddlesome Imperials with their spot checks and ethics violations! :dance
I have a whole slew of Hutt things that I'd like to do with this Hutt character and his associates, but I wanted to see if anyone else was interested in getting in on some Hutt action before I get started. Stuff like -
Hutts on Cloud City. I've already got Ambassador Wrath starting to get set up there as one of the gang factions on Bespin. He has a few minions already, but more associates would be awesome... and potentially some rivals and frenemies too (maybe as part of the Tenloss Syndicate?), since we're a bunch of backstabbing murder slugs. :mischief
Hutts on Jovan Station. Since the Alliance is between us and the Empire, having a presence at one of the main crossing places would be pretty handy, especially if setting up some sort of embassy on Jovan Station is gonna get us diplomatic credentials so we can move around more freely and that jazz. Sorta had something like that in mind for Wrath (hence the name :uhoh), but if someone else fancies being a Hutt diplomat as well / instead... sharing is caring, etc, especially with all the rival clans / kajidics / etc kicking around.
Trade Deals with the Alliance. Ambassador Wrath owns (among other things) Rothana Heavy Engineering, and I'd like to have him offer to sell tanks/walkers/etc to the Alliance military. There's plenty of other stuff in Hutt Space
that the Alliance might want to buy as well, so it could be cool to show up at the Alliance's front door with a posse of Hutts offering different deals and commodities.
Deals with the Underworld. While we don't control all of the galaxy's spice production (Ryloth in particular is a neutral world right now, I think?), we definitely control a lot of it. We've got Black Sun and the Tenloss Syndicate kicking around on Cloud City currently; I know Black Sun has a designated Hutt liaison person, and there are aspects of the Tenloss Syndicate that are Hutt-owned, so it seems like there's some scope there for fun and games.
Conquest? A lot of the sectors around Hutt Space used to be ours, but the Republic and the Empire stole/claimed/annexed them over the years. The new borders defined by the Treaty have left a lot of places "up for grabs" - it might be interesting to see the Hutts try and seize some of these worlds. Kessel, Gamorr, and Honoghr are just ripe for the picking. Ambassador Wrath has major business holdings on Ubrikkia, Rodia, and Rothana (in neutral space). There's Tatooine and Ryloth (also in neutral space) where the Hutts have historically had influence; and there's places like Lok and Rishi that are havens for "our kind of people". It's been a long time since the Hutts actually went out and waged war, but some sort of invasion/annexation storyline could be fun, cool, and create some interesting problems for the Alliance.
If there's interest in doing more Hutt stuff on the boards, I'll set us up with a group and what-not so we can do some more planning and such. :dance
