Capital: Dathomir

Backstory/Bio: Created officially approximately 890 ABY, the Dathomir Collective followed a simple enough concept. To gather all the clans of Dathomir under a single head, in this case Zenon. This attempt had begun many decades before when he initially began joining clans together under one name, but evolved further as the Dathomir Collective sought to become the official Dathomirian government to the outside universe and to further their overall productiveness, and more importantly, safety, with the outside. Though individually many clans remain similar to what they were before the Collective, in terms of internal rules and hierarchy, the Collective has allowed them to stretch their abilities and make them a greater threat now that their numbers and organization has grown so much. Although still certainly behind on technology, the Dathomir Collective has begun trade with outsiders for resources they have in abundance, carefully choosing what to give or take due to their reservation about it, but still preparing to be able to venture out into the rest of the universe. And for their symbol, a book for knowledge, on the right side it had the intertwining symbol for alliance, and on the other a sign that stood for the life of Dathomir.

Backstory/Bio:
Originally created in 25,053 BBY from various governmental authorities and the help of the Jedi Order, the Galactic Republic was one of the biggest governing and lawful entities throughout the Galaxy for millennia after millennia. While it had its ups and downs, even being destroyed completely more then once, it’s ideals often remained. Eventually, while being called the New Republic, it was defeated once again and didn’t quite look like it was going to be coming back soon. A meeting was called by Getran Kross calling for it to be brought back. While support was rather limited, for a variety of reasons. He had enough to begin with a capital on Kamino. It was a decision that there was a necessity for a temporary Commander to control it’s actions until it had enough ground to stand on for a proper Supreme Chancellor to be called for. Creating a position called the Emergency Supreme Commander which held the same power as a Representative when it came to individual laws, but otherwise would take the place of Supreme Chancellor.

Faction Name:

The Bounty Hunters' Guild


Faction Alignment (Lightside, Darkside, Criminal, law, neutral):

Criminal


Leader:

Fenrir "Ghost" (acts as an unconventional leader)


Members:

Fenrir


Assets:

Newest and advanced technology, individual technology to each Bounty Hunter.
Loose leadership as Bounty Hunters come and go from the faction.
Hire able faction by any other group or faction to act as mercenaries.
Strong armament due to each Bounty having individual arms beforehand.

Faction color of choice:

Dark Green


Type of leadership:

Leadership is free as they are a collective faction, they listen to the highest bidder, therefore there is no real leader. If given a tough situation to decide, they settle with a democrati vote to make the decision for the whole faction. However, captains lead certain platoons of soldiers, these captains vote on behalf of their crew in elections in the meeting hall of their main base on Tatooine. 


Hierarchy:

Individually chosen captains lead units of troops on their own starships. This gives the faction some organisation but they still have no leader, the captains just speak for their unit when coming down to a democratic vote. Captains are high experience, experts of combat who have been selected by the collective for a reason to lead certain platoons.


Capital:

Tatooine


Backstory/Bio:

The Bounty Hunters' Guild existed years ago, in the Clone Wars era, but it was lost to time. Fenrir wanted to revitalise this concept and organise a collective group of Bounty Hunters, who could work together as an organisation to work for the highest bidder as a large collective of mercenaries. He also thought that this collective could be used to regulate the Bounty Hunter trade, and allow different Bounty Hunters to communicate with one another easily. Fenrir also wanted Bounties to be able to stay with them for however long to come and go how they please, as a Bounty would be there one day, and half way across the Galaxy the next. On Tatooine, Fenrir met with a band of Bounty Hunters and elaborated the idea to form the Guild. This would allow these men to look out for one another, and not just kill one another for a paycheck when hunting a bounty. Instead the wealth would be shared, and the money received when the Guild was hired by another collective would be spread out across them all. Giving the working Bounty Hunter a steady income, communication and a sense of comradeship between all of them.

Backstory/Bio:
Following many galactic treaties, as well as even more plentiful slave revolts, the Hutt Cartel faded into obscurity. Many other peoples found to nurture a great hatred of the Hutts and their practices, while remaining Hutt Lords were scrambling to survive in this new age of the galaxy. This was so until an upstart Hutt Lord, who gained dominance over Nar-Shadaa, named Fruka the Hutt, lead a resurgance of the Hutt Cartel, and a reuniting of Hutt Space. Fruka pursuaded his father, Nem'ro the Hutt, to join his cause as the Hutt Lord of Hutta (granting Nem'ro a seat on the newly established Hutt Council). Following the uniting of the home system to the Hutt Cartel, Fruka sought to support old allies of his kind to aid the rise of the Hutt Cartel. With the assistance of Clan Kyr'am of the Mandalorians, the rising Hutt Cartel was able to capture the industrial world of Quesh. Then a month after aquiring Quesh, the rise of the Hutt Cartel caught the interest of other powers in the Outer Rim. As a result, an alliance for easy growth was made between the Hutt Cartel and the CIS, and representatives from the Bounty Hunters Guild sought the Hutts for more clientel. Then to improve relations with the Mandalorians, the Cartel then contacted Clan Betna for a proposed alliance, which they accepted. The rise is still going underway. While the greater powers fight off the Dread Lord, the Neutral territories of Hutt Space are slowly being consumed by the Hutt Cartel. 

Raptor Approved. An interesting premise. I shall watch this with interest. Please reply to the Map Update thread using the correct templates. Your faction boards will be created over the next few days and your location and influence cloud will be added to the map as soon as possible.
