Chirgotta, a type of intestinal parasite, induced sickness in numerous species across the galaxy. To increase public knowledge about Chirgotta and advocate for proper intestinal health practices, the Galactic Chirgotta Awareness Council was established.
The Chirgotta is referenced within the "Chirgotta Awareness Council Grant" quest, found at Entertainer Mission Terminals within Star Wars Galaxies. In this quest, a booking agent enlists the player's help to perform at a specific venue, with the intention of furthering the council's objectives.
