LFG Galactic Crime Syndicate - Interest Check!

[Karsten Halak]

Driven by the hype for the upcoming Star Wars Outlaws, I'm doing an interest check on the idea of a classic Star Wars crime group/syndicate. Activities, on top of my head, can consists of managing drugs production and illegal mines, maintaining illegal trade routes, bribery, high-level racketeering, piracy and privateering, rivalries between crime-lords, and many more possibilities! I think a huge, influential crime group, from the Hutts, the Zann Consortium, to the Pyke Syndicate has always been a staple to Star Wars universe and could be a very interesting addition to the galactic politics of Chaos.

What do everyone think? I'm here to brainstorm and spitball ideas, and looking for collaborative partners, so if anyone is interested or have any suggestion to throw, please do let me know and throw it this way.​

 

[Mairéad Solus]

As a Caporegime of The Family, the Coruscanti Mafia, I would enjoy more links with the ther members of the criminal underworld, either friendly or hostile.

 

[Xyoz Maji]

I like crime.

 

[Karsten Halak]

Mairéad Solus I think it would lean hostile, since the classic SW crime syndicates are usually involved with slave trades to a degree, that's a big no for the Family, iirc? But a potential rivalry is always good for the story

 

[Sahan Dragr]

I'll respond on this account, since I saw this thread with this one, and you'll know who I am lol.
I might be interested in getting my Shard char into something like this. V01D Ω (Void Omega)
He is a former Iron Knight Jedi from long ago, but has no memories of that life, so he's more morally grey this time around. And he has a soundrel personality chip installed to influence him lol

 

[Karsten Halak]

Sahan Dragr that's an interesting droid you got there. I'd imagine a crime syndicate would be all over a reliable droid like that, perhaps as an elite enforcer

Doable. Or a smuggler, or whatever he thinks would be fun at the particular moment lol.

 

[Mya Jesel]

slides letters of marque and reprisal along with approved targets

 

[Karsten Halak]

Mya Jesel our lobbyists will contact the League

 

[Mya Jesel]

Mya Jesel our lobbyists will contact the League

Sorry, letters of marque only go to individual captains. But if you wanted to pirate the Sith military infrastructure….we just wouldn’t pay you directly. Other organizations might though.

 

[Pyrrah Tae]

Crime? Yes please

 

[Karsten Halak]

Mya Jesel it was more so the League will leave our operations alone

 

[Karsten Halak]

Pyrrah Tae an experienced crime-lord, very interesting. I could definitely use the guidance

 

[SKR-13]

Need an unfeeling and merciless assassin droid as an enforcer?

 

[Karsten Halak]

SKR-13 the more the merrier

 

[Tae'l Vizsla]

Ohserase Shō Tae'l's the name, killing's the game.

long as i'm not directly involved with the slavery chit, i'll take any job that involves using a blaster or looking pretty tough

now my other charrie, Aloy Vizsla is a more complicated story. She's technically House Solus by marriage and a rebel privateer, not a pirate! but I know there's some overlap. She knows that information is the key to fighting a war like hers and that sometimes you've gotta build connections for that.

though, she could become hostile just as easily, given that she won't tolerate beskar in the hands of non-mandalorians(with rare exceptions) and can't abide slavers either. so if you want a chaotic "frenemy" she's an option too and comes with a fleet even

speaking of... Mya Jesel Aloy's No.1 enemy are sith and imperials, so i'd be interested in picking up a contract with you folks too

 

[Mya Jesel]

Tae'l Vizsla
Feel free to sign up for one here!

 

[Tibera Jessen]

Should you need any mercenary work done, I can be there! Always loved things like this in Star Wars.

 

[Karsten Halak]

Tae'l Vizsla while I’m not planning to do a whole weird slave trade simulation, I’d think that the use of slave labour would be pretty common along the supply chain. Your Black Fleet intrigued me, and I think hostility is the name of the game

Tibera Jessen awesome!

 

[Arcadian]

Omg I’ve been dying for a true crime syndicate!! Count me in, and let me know if I can help get things started with graphics
