⬢ CURATED RECORDKintan is a Hutt Space desert that produced the Nikto: several subspecies, all bound by old treaties to Hutt service. Jabba's guards, skiffs, and palace floors are full of them.
The homeworld is harsh; the employment is worse. Searches for Nikto land here, not on Tatooine, even though Tatooine is where you see them.
First appearance: Return of the Jedi (1983) for Nikto on-screen; world in reference
