Blagga Vajlicsic Indora

(( Note: This actually starts a bit before Clockwork but will quickly catch up to the event. To start this thread is only a few days after the first Hutt Cartel Thread which is currently being written ))
Nal Hutta, the seat of the Hutt Cartel, was changing these days. The stagnant planet ruled by the Five Families had been turned on its head. Upstarts, young blood, had executed a bloody coup. The Families, so secure in their positions had not even seen it coming. It was exactly what Blagga and the others had predicted. However, Hutt Space had yet to be taken completely. Much of its core had surrendered quickly, but lesser members of the Families were still holding up in family fortresses around the sector. They would be defeated in the near future, but some had rather sizable mercenary forces with them. Some bloody conflicts lay ahead of them. Some that would involve some serious fire power, and a lot of credits to purchase it.
However, Blagga was not fond of entirely relying on mercenaries. They had their purpose, but they lived for credits. Ambitious ones were the most dangerous, much like he and the others had been. They were liable to turn. He preferred the idea of building a formal military as well. The Hutt sector had the manpower to achieve such as task but under the old ways they had never moved in that direction. Why? Blagga could not guess the reason. They were fools though, and dead to compound their problems. However, they had been powerful and rich. They had had what Blagga desired. Except he desired to have it secured in the tumultuous galaxy.
This Hutt was already looking beyond the borders of Hutt Space. Not necessarily to expand though the idea was present in his mind. No, he was concerned with the growing threat spinward. The Sith Empire seemed locked in a strange battle with the Republic with the Mandalorians caught in the middle. Blagga could already see the war turning towards the Hutt space in due time. Blagga wanted to be prepared for such an event, and as such a fleet would be necessary. A mighty one. One which the Hutts had never possessed. They lacked a shipyard though, which was the first task that Blagga needed to overcome. But he had a plan for that. His eyes were set on a forgotten minimal rich planet of Brakha.
