Yamato Dilje Bajade



Yamato Dilje Bajade commonly known as Yamato the Hutt was one of the wealthiest, but also one of the most malevolent and greedy beings in the galaxy. He gathered the Yuuzhan Vong vegetation on Nar Hekka and begun illegally trading it. Customers whom he suspected of treachery met a nasty end in his forbidden greenhouse, where he housed a rare, jet black tyrant rancor which he used to kill the unfortunate victims.

Early life
Originally Yamato was in charge of a minor restaurant business on Nar Shaddaa until the Yuuzhan Vong war; when the extragalactic invaders littered the Hutt Space planet Nar Hekka with piles of bizarre, bioengineered plants. Yamato, along with other hutts, had fled to Nar Hekka. He started collecting and gathering the Yuuzhan Vong plants and keeping them in botanical gardens, as well as selling them off. This proved a highly profitable business, since the Jedi were set on eradicating all of the Invader’s biotechnology, and he was the only reliable supplier. Working secretly behind the backs of the Jedi and the senate, he made a considerable profit and established an estate consisting of a central palace and a huge botanical garden complex consisting of many glasshouses. The botanical garden was home to yuuzhan vong plants as well as other attractive vegetation and decorative items. The estate consisted of Yamato’s palace and 5 main glasshouses, named the north, south, east, west and the forbidden.

The Forbidden Greenhouse
Yamato had built in pearl window panels around the forbidden glasshouse, preventing any beings from looking inside. Yamato denied anyone access to this particular area, saying it was his nursery was the plants were grown, and that these plants were particularly vulnerable to any disturbances. He talked of a place of impossible beauty, were tiny bright chutes and tender leaves pressed out of the compost and clustered in beautiful shiny groupings. The truth was that the forbidden greenhouse housed a rare tyrant rancor and was part of Yamato’s plan to continue his illegal operation without legal intervention. Yamato knew the republic grew suspicious of any business on Nar Hekka and used the forbidden glasshouse to get rid of anybody who caused trouble at his palace. His way was to take these law enforcers and spies into the forbidden glasshouse, only to flee the scene on a hoversled and release the tyrant rancor to devour the unfortunate victims. The hutt would watch the spectacle with his friend Maran Durra, a yahk-tosh alchemist, from a hidden balcony. Yamato and Maran Durra would make films of the scene and sell them on the black market. Over 40 law enforcers, legal diplomats, federal spies and republic envoys met their fate in the forbidden greenhouse. It is unknown how many other beings with connections to Yamato were killed this way, but there were a number of complaining customers and rival business leaders who disappeared in the forbidden greenhouse.

Death
Although Yamato was very intelligent and cunning, he eventually made a foolish mistake. Just over a decade after he settled on Nar Hekka, a Yam’rii jedi master named Nishes Asda came to Yamato’s palace. The Jedi did not even suspect treachery from the hutt, having come with the sole purpose of establishing a cleanup and hutt space refugee camp on Yamato’s land. The foolish hutt, even though there was no risk in the Jedi’s presence, decided to feed Asda to the rancor anyway. When Yamato lead him into the forbidden glasshouse and fled the scene to release the rancor, the confused jedi only asked him what he was doing. However when Asda recognized the tyrant rancor emerging from the trees, he realized Yamato’s intentions. Asda used the force to wrench the hutt from his balcony down to the floor. The rancor killed Yamato and Asda fled. After everybody at the palace broke into chaos at the shock of learning the truth about the forbidden greenhouse, Yamato’s long-time friend and ally Maran Durra stole the hutts tyrant rancor, as well and many other priceless items, and fled the system.

Personality and Traits
Yamato the Hutt enjoyed luxury for 20 years of his life. Unlike many hutts, Yamato did not gorge himself with ridiculous amounts of food, and was therefore slim for a hutt, and rather muscular. Yamato was greedy and hoarding, and spent most his credits on properties on and offworld, as well as numerous priceless items from throughout the galaxy. Like many Hutts, enjoyed violence, and apart from the black tyrant rancor in the Forbidden Glasshouse, Yamato organized creative executions and gladiatorial combat for his own amusement. Yamato did not believe that his species was superior, and did not use Klatooinians, Nikto and Vodrans as slaves. He sometimes carried a bowcaster for personal defence.
