Hirshoot was the personal servant of Orko the H'uun; secretly doing undercover work for Gorga the Hutt while under Orko's service. Because of his "miserly salary", he took up Gorga's offer to kill Orko, eagerly. He tried to kill Orko numerous times and failed. Hirshoot was ripped apart by Ry-Kooda when the Herglic killed Orko.
