M'dweshuu Nova, alternatively known as M'dweshuu, represented a stellar explosion classified as a nova that occurred within the region of Hutt Space. Situated in an adjacent star system was Kintan, the original home planet of the Nikto species. The radiation emitted by M'dweshuu triggered a significantly elevated frequency of genetic mutations among the population of Kintan. Certain Nikto individuals, having grasped the influence M'dweshuu exerted upon their people, established groups, for instance the aggressive Cult of M'dweshuu, dedicated to the veneration of this celestial body.
