Boorka Boorka was a hermaphrodite Hutt crime lord with a masculine personality who operated on the planet Tatooine around 22 BBY . Around the time of the outbreak of the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems , Boorka received information from Bogeega Bu ' Daay , an operative on the planet Eredenn Prime , about a new series of superweapons that the Republic was building known as the Decimators . Boorka made it known that the information was available to the highest bidder and his offer was soon taken up by the Confederacy , who sent a contingent of its droid army led by General Sev ' rance Tann to Tatooine . Boorka agreed to trade his information to the Separatists if they destroyed a Republic spaceport near the city Mos Osnoe . The spaceport was interfering with the profits of the Hutt Cartel , a criminal organization that Boorka was part of , and the Separatist army was able to accomplish the task . Boorka then gave his information to the Separatists , leading them to ultimately gain control of the Decimators and take over the Republic energy - producing planet Sarapin . When the Republic retook Sarapin , Jedi General Echuu Shen - Jon discovered that the Hutt Cartel had knowledge of General Tann ' s location , and Shen - Jon soon learned that Boorka had begun a partnership with the Separatists and had allowed them to set up a secret trade operation on Tatooine . The Jedi led his army to attack Boorka ' s forces , killing the Hutt in the process and removing the Separatists from Tatooine . Biography . Boorka was a Hutt , a hermaphroditic species , who possessed a male personality and was a crime lord based on the planet Tatooine with ties to the Hutt Cartel . Around the time of the outbreak of the galaxy - spanning conflict known as the Clone Wars , which was fought between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems , a Cartel operative named Bogeega Bu ' Daay contacted Boorka from the planet Eredenn Prime , having discovered secret intelligence relating to a Republic superweapon known as the Decimator that members of the Wookiee species were developing . Bu ' Daay told Boorka everything that had been unearthed about the Decimator , such as its weapon and shielding capabilities , assuring the Hutt that he could use the knowledge to his advantage . Boorka told Bu ' Daay to continue observing the Decimator research , but the Wookiees working on the superweapon discovered the operative and intercepted the transmission , preventing any further observations . Boorka then made it known that he had information about a secret Republic superweapon and was willing to sell it to the highest bidder . His offer was accepted by Separatist forces under the Dark Jedi General Sev ' rance Tann , who had been ordered by the Confederate leader Count Dooku to retrieve the information by any means necessary . Tann arrived on Tatooine with a small part of the Separatist droid army , which she led to Boorka ' s Palace near the city of Mos Osnoe . Boorka had some of his men hide along the path to ambush Tann ' s army , but the battle droids defeated and killed them . Upon Tann ' s arrival at Boorka ' s Palace , the Hutt commented that he liked her military leadership , and then began explaining his terms for the Separatists to acquire the secret intelligence in his possession . Boorka stated that the Republic had set up a spaceport outside of Mos Osnoe to benefit from the Outer Rim trading profits to help pay for the war , but the spaceport was interfering with the Hutt Cartel ' s own profits . Therefore , Boorka told Tann that he would give her the information if her army destroyed the spaceport ; after Tann ' s forces defeated the Republic garrison of clone troopers around the spaceport and destroyed it , Boorka gave her his knowledge of the Decimator and its production on Eredden Prime . Boorka continued his partnership with the Separatists and ran credits and supplies to them through a hidden base established on Tatooine . Using the Hutt ' s intelligence , the Separatists were able to seize the Decimators and used them to capture the Republic energy - producing planet Sarapin . In response , the Republic sent Jedi General Echuu Shen - Jon and his Padawan Naat Reath to retake the planet , and during the battle , Confederate Officer Zian Finnis told the Jedi that the Hutt Cartel had knowledge of Tann ' s location . Intending to catch Tann for killing Stam , his first Padawan and Naat ' s brother , Shen - Jon led his forces to Tatooine and met with another member of the Cartel , Jabba Desilijic Tiure , who was also one of Boorka ' s rivals . Jabba told the Jedi of Boorka ' s alliance with the Separatists and informed them of their hidden base , an operation that enraged Jabba , as it competed with his own . Shen - Jon agreed to destroy the way station , but Jabba refused to be seen fighting a fellow Hutt , leaving the Republic forces to confront the Separatists on their own . The Republic army attacked Boorka ' s hideout and killed the Hutt , and also obliterated the Separatist way - station . As a reward for eliminating his competitor , Jabba gave Shen - Jon 500 nova crystals , a type of mineral used as currency throughout the galaxy . Personality and traits . Boorka was willing to sell the information on the Decimator to the Separatists in order to make a profit . He had no issue with placing his henchmen in the path leading to his palace to test the Confederate army , allowing them to be killed . After seeing her skill as a military leader , the Hutt complimented Sev ' rance Tann of her abilities . Boorka had a strong rivalry with Jabba Desilijic Tiure , which ultimately led to his demise when Jabba informed the Republic of Boorka ' s operation . When spending time at his palace , Boorka kept a small entourage with him , including both a Twi ' lek male and female , several Gamorrean guards , a Weequay guard , one droid , several Jawas , and an Aqualish .
