[/hider] [center][IMG]http://i57.tinypic.com/f557p2.jpg[/IMG][/center] [center][b]Ishkar Syndicate[/b][/center] [b]Overview[/b]: The Ishkar Syndicate is an organization that holds a massive amount of influence and power in the Core Worlds. It is infamous for being involved in every known type of illegal activity; its information networks surpassed even the accuracy and scope of Imperial Intelligence and the Bothan Spynet. Unlike some other criminal organizations, the Ishkar Syndicate has a legitimate branch of the organization. Under the name of Arlos industries, it owns large-scale companies along with multiple smaller companies of various degrees of legality. Those companies produced battle droids, weapons, starships, and equipment--mostly for the Ishkar Syndicate use. The resources available to Ishkar rivaled those belonging to a large planetary army, including foot soldiers. By the time the Clone Wars occurred, the organization can already be considered as a rogue nation. [b]Specialization[/b]: Information Trading, Bounty Hunting, Artifact and Resource Smuggling.

[hider2=Appearance:] [IMG]http://i59.tinypic.com/2dhtuyu.jpg[/IMG][/hider2] [hider2=History:] Cynthia once belonged to a rich trader family in Fedalle, before she was kidnapped at a young age and was almost sold to slavery by their family's competitors. After she was kidnapped, the competitors used her as leverage to force her parents to surrender their business and assets. Although they were willing to submit to the captors demands, a change of plan on the captor's side took place. Seeing that it would be more lucrative to take them out, rather than to seize their belongings, which might be traced to their illegal activities; the competitors had them killed, right before Cynthia's eyes. Having no use for her anymore, they saw her as nuisance, which is why they planned to kill her. Luckily, one of the grunts suggested to sell her to slavery, to gain more profit from the crimes they already did. While on their way to Coruscant, the slaver ship containing Cynthia was attacked by pirates and was captured. The pirates then takes them to an Ishkar statio in Fedalle, before revealing that they belong to the Ishkar Syndicate. Now belonging to the Ishkar, the slaves were released and were inspected by Mercurius himself who was inspecting the station at that time of their arrial. During his inspection, Mercurius takes an interest on the young Cynthia, which takes her personally from the rest of the slaves about to be sold, under the Ishkar's name. He then talks to her, and listens to the story behind her capture and how did she end up there. Upon hearing her story, Mercurius offers the young Cynthia a way to avenge her parents. Taking out the survivors from the slaver ship, he orders his men to bind them down, while giving the young Cynthia a vibro knife, letting do her as she wish with her captors life. Taking this as an opportunity to release her anger and hatred, Cynthia slowly begins to dismember the survivors, one limb at a time without holding back, crying as she does so. Seeing potential on Cynthia, Mercurius offers her to be a part of the organization, even at a young age. The offer was eagerly accepted by Cynthia, as she saw another family in the image of the organization. Under the tutelage Mercurius, Cynthia was raised and trained to be the deadliest and smartest agent under Ishkar Syndicate's control. She was given legal control over the Bactoid corporations and the Spezioc Arms, so she could form them into the Arlos Industries using her family's legal background. This move made her to be the assumed leader of Ishkar Syndicate by the other crime organizations due to the involvement of the Arlos Industries in the criminal activities of the Ishkar.

Tilani met the leader of the Ishkar Syndicate, Mercurius, during one of his visits on the planet, in search for any Gen'Dai recruits. During that time, she was one of the prime entertainers in one of the pleasure palace' built on the planet. When Mercurius visited the establishment she was working on, immediately she went to him, trying to make a client out of the Gen'Dai. Eventually she found a way to service him, free of charge, as she had never experienced doing carnal acts with a Gen'Dai before, thinking of it as a reward on its own. Due to her acts, Mercurius thought of something, that would undoubtedly profit his organization. Mercurius offered Tilani to leave the planet, and join his side, using promises of having a luxurious life beyond the stars. Tilani gave into the promises given to her, and joined the ranks of the Ishkar. She was then trained to the ways of the Ishkar, and was given control over one of the fronts of the organization. Using her influence in the entertainment industry she was able to hire a large amount of Zeltron and Twi'lek women to work for her. After gaining enough recruits she established the "Erocia" a mobile HQ for Ishkar agents under the disguise of a mobile pleasure palace. Now, she operates the Erocia through different sectors, leaving an Ishkar informant on every one they pass through.
