DESCRIPTION​

A personalised version of the Minstrel Class Star Yacht, the 'Glorious Jewel' is the personal starship of the Hutt Criminal, Nor'baal. His personal quarters were located at the back of the throne room, featuring two smaller observation domes for the Hutt's pleasure. Supported by a kitchen, armoury and sufficient guest quarters to enable him to entertain, Nor'baal installed spy gear on his ship to enable him to keep an eye on those travelling with him.

The ship was staffed by a crew of droids and also featured a landing pay, which was home to two shuttles and a complement of six Headhunter fighters that served as the escort for the Glorious Jewel. Nor'baal kept a small menagerie of beasts on board, which he would keep well-fed with prisoners who had annoyed him. Featuring two rear vanes, and three retractable rods, the ship was very stable in flight, proving maximum relaxation for a crime lord.
