Grondo the Hutt was born to a great Hutt lord, Zorgo the Second, or Zorgo the Redeemed. He was not the first huttlet to be born to the leader of the Nasirii kajedic. Zorgo the Second had given birth to Zorgo the Third fifty years before Grondo. As such, Grondo was always expected to follow in his brother's shadow, never owning an ounce of the rights to the Hutt empire that the Nasirii kajedic had earned over the years. For much of his early life, Grondo was treated only as another mouth for his father to feed.
