The Vodrans were a sentient species that originated on Vodran. This planet is their homeworld, situated within Hutt Space in the Outer Rim Territories of the galaxy. A defining feature of the Vodrans were the horns that encircled their faces, and they often displayed light brown skin and blue eyes.
Following the Hutt Cartel's conquest of their planet, the Vodrans were relegated to the status of slaves or vassals. The Hutt Cartel was a criminal enterprise ruled by the Hutts from Nal Hutta, a nearby planet. Before the Invasion of Naboo, a Vodran was present at the Xrexus Cartel's auction of Eldra Kaitis, a Jedi Padawan. Eventually, Harra the Hutt constructed a palace on Vodran, solidifying her control by either enslaving or exiling the indigenous Vodran population.
