Christian Slade
In Darkness I Thrive
Corporation Name: Slade Industries
Headquarters: Zeltros - Located in the Casino and Resorts known as "The Red Dragon Casino"
Locations: Centrally, Slade Industries is located on Zeltros, but recently expansion efforts have been made to spread to planets like Corellia and Coruscant in the purchase of a few previously owned casinos there to begin garnering interest and to gain notice from the public.
Operations:
1. Vacation destination
2. Gambling/Entertainment
3. Manufacturing
- Slade industries priority focus is to provide a venue for legal gambling, but, as expected, entertainment by way of magic shows, music performances, tours and other activities are offered at the resorts associated with the casinos themselves. All goods and items found or shared during tours, activites, shows and performances as well as within rooms of the resorts are provided and manufactured by Slade Industries.
Rationale: This company was founded by Christian Slade himself after winning the rights to a single casino from it's owner in a sky scraping stakes game of Sabacc. That Casino, aptly named "The Risky Spender", was won by Christian Slade and served as his start in the highly profitable industry of gambling. Years after his fortunate win, he owns a number of casinos and has constructed an industry revolving around gambling and dedicated finding ways to help people lose their money quicker while playing new and exciting games that are harder and harder to win.

Description: Slade Industries had it's beginnings during a high stakes Sabacc game that ended up a face-off between the once owner of "The Risky Spender" and Christian Slade, a little known, yet wealthy young Sith who'd called Zeltros his home from a young age. From it's beginning, Christian poured everything he had into the Casino in the expectation that it would grow. It did, and soon it became one of the most popular Casinos that Zeltros offered, even making it into the top 25 list of places to visit on Zeltros the following year, but that wasn't enough for Christian Slade.
Following his success in the lucrative industry of gambling, Christian used the mass wealth that he was accumulating to begin purchasing Night Clubs, Strip Clubs, Bars and Hotels. His profits continued to rise, and finally he began to find that his income was more than enough to begin purchasing failing Casinos. One at a time, he took Casinos that were losing their luster and remade them each one until his love for restoring life to once popular tourist attractions was found. It became a hobby to take something old or lacking and make it beautiful again, and the more effort he put into his projects, the higher the reward for his work.
It took only a few years for him to come to the conclusion that he should start a corporation dedicated to restoring the once cluttered tourist attractions of Zeltros, namely Casinos and Resorts, but any and all properties that could be resurrected and appreciated once again. That is where he got the idea for Slade Industries.
Now Slade Industries produces everything. Chips to be used by the many gambling hands that would covet them, beverages to deaden the senses of those who would gamble their money away, the dice, cards and balls used for the numerous games. They hire the entertainment, be it a magic show, musical performance or anything of the like. They provide everything to the customers, manufactured, prepared and replaced by them and them alone, including everything offered in even the Resorts that support the main attraction, the Casinos. From soap to shampoo. From towels to wash cloths. From Curtains to bed sheets. Everything is produced by Slade Industries for Slade Industries in order for their consumers to enjoy a care free and welcoming experience at the destination of their choice.

Side note: I actually had a good few more of these threads referring to development and raising these cainos and resorts, but I can't find them at all. A few months back I noticed that a lot of my threads and work went missing, so I had assumed there was some sort of content loss or something that happened on the site I guess due to someone hacking it or something, but I'm not sure. All I know is I lost a good bit of material then and haven't been able to find it again since, so this is all I have for the time being.
