- Description: The enforcers of Black Sun are composed of mid-level members of Black Sun, who have been highly trained and are competent leaders. They utilize higher quality equipment and armor, and are identifiable by the black and gold armorweave outfits and Black Sun visual accents. The enforcers are from a mixture of species, typically humanoid, but not limited to other more exotic aliens. When called into the field, the enforcers are used for specialized tasks, such as low-collateral raids or protection services or more clandestine operations; their tactics are considerably more advanced than the common Black Sun soldiers, often with members being ex-military or veteran mercenaries. The Black Sun Enforcers are instructed by higher ranked Black Sun leadership, and are trusted to oversee large-scale operations leading Black Sun Soldiers.

The Black Sun Enforcers have been utilized throughout the criminal syndicates existence for decades, typically reserved for more specialized use than typical soldiers - such as protective duties, clandestine operations or commanding lower ranked forces. Equipment is of a higher quality, with some specialized weaponry and resistant armors with layering, provided by Black Sun's financial resources and backing. The soldiers display the syndicate emblem on their cloaks, and wear black and gold colored equipment and uniforms, which identify them as a unified force.
Composed of mid-level Black Sun members, the enforcers are usually promoted Black Sun Soldiers, ex-military or veteran mercenaries with considerable combat skill. Additional training, as needed, is also provided by instructors at any number of Black Sun occupied facilities on various planets (primarily Coruscant or Denon, among others). They are taught a number of tactics and strategies, being more than capable of handling similarly sized military units if required; however, due to their main function on a gangland warfare level, the enforcers can still struggle against larger or more heavily armed military.
Still, when it comes to dealing with most underworld threats, the enforcers stand out as a deadly force. With assorted explosives, grappling lines, grenades and optic assistance, the enforcers can handle most criminal or gang related scenarios effectively. The force relies on superior combat skills, experience in a range of areas, and cohesive squad methods; and combined with their already existing combat prowess as veterans and specialists, as well as flight-capable droid support, this can make the Black Sun Enforcers a highly devastating force against gangs, mercenaries or smaller groups, capable of taking minimal losses.
When the general public sees the Black Sun Enforcers, they should hope they aren't coming for them...
