Ortolans According to the Imperial treaty with the Ortolans, Ortolans are not allowed to leave the planet (for their own protection). Tihs, however, does not stop smugglers from enslaving the weaker members of the species and selling them throughout the galaxy, resulting in a limited number of Ortolans that can be found in the galaxy. (These individuals usually retain close ties with the smugglers and other unsavory characters that kidnapped them from their home, primarily because they know of nowhere else to go.) There are even rumors that a few Ortolans have turned traitor to their species, acting as slavors and smugglers themselves.
