Sugg

The Sugg are one of the ancient races to lay claim to the Rigel system before the Orion Era. The Sugg were allegedly the first species to utilize the primitive natives of Botchok, the Orions, as slaves, around 20,000 BCE. The Sugg taught the Orions to function as farmers and even began to export the slaves offworld. Other races began to see the value of Orion slaves and began raiding Botchok themselves, preferring to take Orions already enslaved. To protect their property, the Sugg armed the Orions with slugthrowers, though the level of weaponry soon escalated.

One Sugg slaver whose journals survive to the present day was P'tak. (The Orions: Book of Common Knowledge)
