Krova
this female Hutt was a minor crimelord who worked from a base on the planet Alvorine. Krova had been wanted in connection with the deaths of a multitude of Alliance personnel, and the bounty was established shortly after the Battle of Endor by the fledgling New Republic. She was captured by Langro Dis in the Pluthan Asteroid Field and returned to Alvorine, although rumor held that Krova allowed herself to be captured in order to "clear her name" while cutting a deal to keep herself free. Krova was known to have possessed a Sith Holocron. For safekeeping, Krova had swallowed the Holocron, and refused to reveal its location until her freedom could be guaranteed. Unknown to Krova, the Holocron emitted a form of distress signal upon being swallowed, which attracted Noth and and a group of Dark Side followers. When the Dark Siders attacked, Krova was forced to turn over the Holocron to them, and was later captured again and imprisoned. The Holocron itself was damaged when Noth tried to steal it, but nevertheless was retained by the Dark Siders.
