Major Faction End of the High Treasurer | The Sith Order

HOLONET NEWS EXCLUSIVE: SIBC CHAIRWOMAN KILLED BY DARTH STROSIUS

The Battle of the Powerbases

Reports confirmed that at approximately 0600 hours local time, The High Treasurer of the Sith-Imperial Banking Clan and purported heir of the Planet of Kuat, Elane II of Kuat was slain today by Darth Strosius during a battle over the Blackwall Gateway. The death of the High Treasurer has sent a seismic shockwave through the Sith Order's financial foundations.

Elane II was the architect of the "Red Ledger System," the complex web of credit-swaps and debt-servitude that fueled the Order's recent military expansions. With her demise, the secrets of the Sith's hidden liquid reserves have vanished, leaving the Empire's economy in a state of freefall.

Within minutes of the confirmation, the Sith-Imperial Credit (SIC) plummeted by 42% against the Intergalactic Standard. The SIBC's central hub on Jutrand has suspended all withdrawals, sparking what many are calling the "Great Scarcity."

FINANCIAL PANIC ON JUTRAND

Chaos has erupted in the capital's financial district. Massive crowds of citizens and lower-tier Sith acolytes have besieged the SIBC vaults, demanding the return of their "War Profiteer" dividends. Imperial Sentinels have been deployed to maintain order, but reports indicate that even the military's payroll is now in question.
