The organization is a Bounty hunter House; it is also very special. Because only female hunters and bounty hunters work at House Orchid. Employees are known for their honour and for always doing the work, never beating the principals. However, they are also famous for being picky about what tasks they take on because of the leader. Among other things, only cases where the target is really guilty. If someone has given someone a blood feud for petty revenge, that’s not a good enough reason. In addition, they never take on a cause where a female person would be the target. They only hunt men or droids.

Despite these criteria, it has a large number of customers, including several exclusive ones. They accept orders from anyone, individuals, companies, or even states. Their offices are located at countless points in the Galaxy to make it easier to contact them.

Professional bounty hunters, that is, they undertake only legal work, illegal as assassinations, not at all; so they can actually be called a positive company as they work to make the Galaxy a better and less dangerous place.

House Orchid was founded decades ago on the model of the former similar bounty hunter house, House Renliss. The company was run by Lady Orchid; it is both a name and a title for the head of the house. Sil met her shortly after she killed her slaveholder and was finally able to start working as an independent bounty hunter. The older woman saw the opportunity in the young girl and selected her, taking her by her side.

She started teaching and educating the girl, not only to be a better bounty hunter, but also to be the heiress to the older woman one day. Sil learned a lot from her, got to know the organization, built relationships, and earned everyone’s respect with her work and talent. Fortunately, the house’s code of ethics and morals has always been similar to hers.

The previous Lady Orchid died during the second siege of Bastion, after which Silhana inherited the company from the woman. The group of roughly ten people who run the company (elsewhere to the board of directors) hired the young girl as House Orchid’s Headmistress, so from now Sil filled that position.
