Hutt War of Extermination

"This is no ordinary mission. To complete it, you will have to side with the source of nigh-endless suffering in the galaxy. You will have to face off against peoples whose grievances are genuine - and whose cause may very well be just."

Galactic crime syndicates had, during the early battles of the Fauthian devastation, believed themselves immune to the ravages of Raixan Fauth and his followers. The warlord proved them wrong by launching a war of extermination against the Hutt race itself. Essentially declaring open season upon the species on behalf of all those they had wronged over the millennia, he enacted elaborate rituals in order to recruit large numbers of Vodran, Nikto, and Weequay to the cause. Declaring the Treaty of Vontor - and all other deals or obligations to the species - void, he effectively induced a mass movement to enact revenge on the species. By 1140 ABY, 21 years after the movement had begun, the Hutt race had been devastated to about a fifth of its former population and was continuing to decline.

The crew of the Kiber Phoenix, along with several allies, were enlisted by the Underground in order to put a stop to the genocide, as the Hutts were recognized as being needed for the rebuilding of the galaxy following the end of the Galactic Interregnum; they also wished to curtail their power and influence in that period.
