Malta
this Hutt was one of Jabba's most loathsome associates, during the years leading up to the Battle of Yavin. Malta was so immensely obese that his eyes could barely open because of the fat surrounding them. When Malta agreed to a bet with Jabba and Embra to find the Yavin Vassilika, Malta hired Denger, Bossk, and IG-88 to hunt down Illyan Webble and the crystal. Malta's attempt ended in failure, although he tried every cheat in the book to try and win. He even sent Jozzel Moffett out to personally recover the artifact, but Jozzel ended up with a fake. Years later, Malta was believed to have fled Hutt Space for Tatooine, when the Yuuzhan Vong took control of that area of the galaxy.
