}}

Following the discovery of the [[Khuiumin]] system by Captain [[Krodo Rask]] of the [[Eyttyrmin Batiiv Pirates]], the Rebellion received intelligence on the pirates' intent to settle the system. Due to the proximity of Khuiumin to territory under control of the Rebellion, select Rebel Commanders decided that their groups would attempt to deny these settlement attempts. These Rebels formed the [[Kumquat Coalition]] and informed the Galaxy of the existance of Khuiumin System and intent to contest. Local [[Eidola]] pirates joined forces with the Kumquat Coalition and engaged the [[Shadow Dominion]], who rallied in support of [[Son-Tuul Pride]] and the [[Eyttyrmin Batiiv Pirates]]. In a lengthy space battle lasting from Day 106 to Day 108, the space forces of the [[Shadow Dominion]] were defeated.

The appearance of [[Corliss & Co.]], a member of the [[Hydian Expanse]], was harbinger of the events to unfold: The arriving forces of the Hydian Expanse and [[Imperial Union]] led to a complex political situation. Powers opposing each other in the [[Galactic Civil War]] and neutrals agreed on the Truce of Khuiumin. Allowing for the systems' complete lockdown and blockade, the Shadow Dominion was ousted and secured the system for Corliss & Co. of the Hydian Expanse. The truce was later broken by [[Havoc Squad]], who opened fire on Rebel units shortly before leaving the system.

In an assessment, the War for Khuiumin yields interesting perspectives. The Shadow Dominion was not able to contest the power of the Kumquat Coalition in open battle. This held all the more so after the arrival of major [[Hydian Expanse]] and [[Imperial Union]] forces. The Kumquat Coalition, the Hydian Expanse and the Imperial Union, representing the three major blocks either opposing each other and neutral in the [[Galactic Civil War]], were united in their interest to fight the pirates.
Subsequent complex political maneuvering and ultimately the Truce of Khuiumin allowed a sustainable system blockade to establish [[Corliss & Co.]] as ruling power of the system. Despite this achievement, the anti-piracy coalition failed to prevent Khagan Shalas and his pirates from escaping Khuiumin and thus, punishment. The Son-Tuul Pride sold its Khuiumin holdings to the [[Blue Star Dominion]], an otherwise uninvolved Rebel government, leading the [[Hydian Expanse]] to change its diplomatic status with the Dominion. The escape and survival of Khagan Shalas allowed the [[Son-Tuul Pride]] to restyle as the [[Eternal Empire]].

==Timeline==
===Day 101===
The Khuiumin system is discovered by chance by a small group of Eyttyrmin Batiiv pirates led by Captain Krodo Rask. Following the discovery, Captain Rask sends a signal to Khagan Bork Shalas, requesting immediate assistance from the Son-Tuul Pride in conquering the system. The Son-Tuul Pride heeds that call and sends its hordes. The explorers initially focus on conquering the planet Courkrus as quickly as possible. Two days later, the Hordes of the Pride eagerly arrive. The Son-Tuul Pride begins to close down system space to foreign intruders. <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49138 The Khuiumin Survivors - From the Log of Captain Krodo Rask]</ref>

The following day, [[Carl Warrington]] and the [[Eidola Pirates]] are informed through one of their spies of the Eyttyrmin Batiiv pirates discovery <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49160 Giant Squabeliks and Secret Agents: How Khuiumin Turned Into a War Zone]</ref>.

===Day 104===
The CR-92 Battle Corvette [[Hibridium Kestrel]], under command of Carl Warrington, enters Khuiumin system. Its arrival is noted by Bork Shalas, who hails the Corvette "Gotta hurry". At this point, Warlord Carl Warrington, realizing that his forces are badly out of position to battle Eyttyrmin Batiiv pirates alone, contacts the New Republic.
The Leaders of the Rebellion are informed of the discovery of the Khuiumin system at 10:00 CGT. Following a brief assessment of the available intelligence and taking political and strategic considerations into account, the Rebellion decides to establish an ad hoc Organisation. The Kumquat Coalition is formed with the aim of disrupting pirate activities in the Khuiumin sector and, ideally, preventing the pirates from establishing a strategic base there. Following this decision, the [[The Resistance|Resistance]], the [[The Jedi Order|Jedi Order]], [[-ARK-]], [[TIEFE]] and [[Rogue Squadron]] and [[Total Outer Rim]] announce an immediate response and deploy their own forces.

A press release intended for broadcast on the Galactic News Service was drafted and published after the system’s presence had been confirmed by rebel forces on the ground<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49114 DESTINATION: KHUIUMIN ]</ref>. The GNS attracted galactic attention, and groups such as the [[Bounty Hunters Guild]] led by [[Nikolaj Eyre]] and the [[The Pentastar Alliance|Pentastar Alliance]] led by [[Dane Star]] announced their intention to set off for Khuiumin.

===Day 105===
A-Wings from Rogue Squadron are conducting combat reconnaissance flights near the planet Courkrus when they come under attack from Eyttyrmin Batiiv Raider-class corvette 'Prydwen'. Under the coordination of Grand Admiral Azzameen and leadership of Master Memnoch, the Total Outer Rim begins constructing defence stations at tactically important locations. Son-Tuul Pride is countering Total Outer Rim by setting up relay stations, which, according to a rebel intelligence service, may at a later date be replaced by the pirates with as of yet unknown weapons. Under the command of Banner-Prätor Blot Hlidskjalf, TIEFE is joining forces with Total Outer Rim to expand the system’s defences. It was also reported to the Kumquat Coalition via rebel intelligence, that the Hydian Expanse was on its way to Khuiumin.

===Day 106===
[[Kolohe Mining Group MK2]] Corona-class frigates and [[Eidola|Eidolon]] corvettes, including the rare CR92 Battle Corvette [[Hibridium Kestrel]] commanded by Warlord [[Carl Warrington]], engage the STP pirates in a skirmish. A TIEFE Kaloth-class frigate and -ARK- Fury-class corvette join KMG and Eidolon forces, while TIEFE, RS and TOR continue system defense construction operations. TIEFE manages to place a Golan II station around 14:15 CGT covering the Khuiumin northeastern hyperspace entry. Corliss & Co. forces conduct planetary reconnaissance while preparing for ground combat and combat engineering operations on the planet of Courkrus. Separatist Intelligence uncovers information of raw materials being mined and shipped to Khuiumin by the Subduco Syndicate in support of the Son-Tuul Pride: subsequently, Seperatist Intelligence operatives manage to cancel all mining operations disrupting these raw material supplies.

===Day 107===
Son-Tuul Pride Kaloth-class frigates 'Fenrir #5' and 'Ravager #14' and Eyttyrmin Batiiv Corona-class frigates 'Crimson Cutlass' and 'Smoking Flintlock', supported by Raider-class corvettes, a variety of gunboats and a sizeable wing of Toscan 8-Q, BTL-S3 Y-wing and Star Saber XC-01 MkII Starfighters, attempt to hold space superiority. Thus, the pirates engage the forces of the Kumquat Coalition and neutrals entering the system alike, with multiple skirmishes occuring at all system hyperspace entry points. Meanwhile, the pirates successfully manage to establish initial beachheads and construct defensive perimeters on the planets of Courkrus, Khuiumin II, Khuiumin III and the moon Courkrus B. In a coordinated Eidolon and Kumquat Coalition effort, Warlord [[Carl Warrington]] and Jedi Master Thragg Craghorn attempt to break through the pirate defensive lines of Khuiumin III and establish a beachhead themselves around 16:15 CGT. Notably, this operation is prevented by the Son-Tuul Pride <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49160 Giant Squabeliks and Secret Agents: How Khuiumin Turned Into a War Zone]</ref>. During the fighting, a TOR Mammoth-class Heavy Hauler is utilized to initiate construction of a heavy Golan II station on the systems southern hyperspace entry point. Kumquat stationary system defense operations conclude successfully with the placement of that station and the TOR combat engineers withdraw from the system. The Krath arrives and conducts system reconnaisance using ATR spacecraft. Later the day, most space combat operations shifted towards the western hyperspace entry point and Kumquat Coalition forces fight side by side with [[Corliss & Co.]], under the command of [[Sol Kerrelan]], aboard the 'Shadow Ledger' flight of ATR-6 Assault Transports and Corona-class frigate 'Mandate of the Board'.

===Day 108===
[[File:Khuiumin_27_108_1000.png|200px|thumb|left|Tactical display of the space battle of Khuiumin, Kumquat Coalition perspective, Year 27 Day 108; 10:00.]]
Kumquat Coalition Intelligence notes that the Galactic Census Bureau updates records for Khuiumin system around 01:30 CGT. The increasing population, but without governmental acclamation, is testament to the activities of the Shadow Dominion. Four and a half hours later, the system control is updated by the Bureau to [[Son-Tuul Pride]] with a simultaneous update to Khuiumin III, which the pirates brought under their control. Courkrus A is also reported to be secured by the pirates. [[The Exchange]] and [[Triumvirate Coalition]] forces arrive, reinforcing the Kumquat Coalition. Frigate sized vessels of the Unnamed Imperium and the Bounty Hunters Guild, shortly after to be shown linked to the pirates, appear at a rendezvouz point near Khuiumin. Around 09:00?? CGT, the space [[Battle of Khuiumin]] erupts above Courkrus, with Kumquat forces under the overall command of Master Falte. A Jedi Order CR-90 corvette and an Eidola ground detachment make successful landfall on Courkrus. Roughly at 10:00 CGT, the Khuiumin system's proper registration with the Galactic Census Bureau has been completed and the system was broadcast via the Galactic News Service. Following the withdrawal of their combat engineering troops, an assault fleet from the [[Total Outer Rim]] joins the space battle, and the fighting subsides later that day with the remaining pirate space forces either destroyed or forced out of the system. Following the destruction of pirate spacecraft, the Kumquat Coalition observes unexplainable pirate Escape Pod flight patterns. Kumquat forces from now on hold the system space, and systematically begin establishing Courkrus atmospheric control, while allied forces begin to clear Courkrus planet of hostile presence in focused search and destroy operations. These include notorious pirate Warlord [[Carl Warrington]] and [[Corliss & Co.]] led by [[Uldric Corliss]] himself, who commence construction operations to contest Courkrus planetary control from the Shadow Dominion.

===Day 109===
[[File:Khuiumin_27_109_1300.png|200px|thumb|right|Jedi Master Craghorn engages pirates on Courkrus, Kumquat Coalition perspective, Year 27 Day 109; 13:00.]] Under the command of Master Falte, Consul Shaynar and General Descartes, the Kumquat Forces are continuing their interception and interdiction operations to secure dominance in space. The main forces of the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems]] and the bulk of the [[Hydian Expanse]] arrive to the Khuiumin area of operations. Around 16:30 CGT, forces from the Hydian Expanse take up their combat positions in the Khuiumin system. Quickly, rapport is established between the Hydian Expanse and the Kumquat Coalition to jointly deny the Shadow Dominion Khuiumin and support Corliss & Co. in their quest for the system. The Kumquat Coalition joins ground combat operations, targeting pirate beachheads and landborne pirate spacecraft. General Descartes, now personally leading a ground assault unit, comes under heavy enemy fire and looses consciousness as a result of the injuries he had sustained whilst covering the retreat of his own troops. Badly wounded, he was later medivacced by arriving reinforcements. Eidolon and Rogue Squadron combat engineers and ground troops support Corliss construction operations on the eastern sectors of Courkrus in order to contest planetary control <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49160 Giant Squabeliks and Secret Agents: How Khuiumin Turned Into a War Zone]</ref>. Meanwhile, TIEFE and TOR frigates enforce the Courkrus planetary blockade. Anecdotally, the Pirate Warlord Warrington and the Rebel Admiral Azzameen, former adversaries at [[Elder_Dumping:_Breaking_News_from_the_Bes_System|Bes]], shake hands on a remote spot in the wilderness of Courkrus. The Hydian Expanse and the Kumquat Coalition both are reporting further pirate Escape Pod performing unexplainable maneuvres, which are ultimately converging towards the surface of Courkrus. The stranded pirates become trapped under the anti-piracy coalitions' blockade.

===Day 110===
[[File:Shalas_gruff.png|300px|thumb|right|Sensor gear readout of anti-piracy coalition forces during Shalas rescue of McGruff, Year 27 Day 110; ca 23:00.]] The Kumquat Coalition releases a press communique via the Galactic News Services with an update reflecting the outcome of the combat activities, including the destruction of hundreds of spacecraft, of the previous days <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49123 Shadow Dominion Announces “Strategic Tourism Initiative” Following Minor System-Wide Defeat]</ref>. Meanwhole on the ground, combat activities carry on. During a planetary combat patrol, Consul Scarne of the Kumquat Coalition came under heavy fire from overwhelming enemy forces. As she managed to escape virtually unscathed, she was nicknamed the ‘Ghost of Kumquat’ <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49123 Shadow Dominion Announces “Strategic Tourism Initiative” Following Minor System-Wide Defeat]</ref>. Moreover, Nikolaj Eyre withdraws from the combat zone following a firefight with soldiers of the Kumquat Coalition.
With ground operations proceeding, established space dominance and the arrival the [[Hydian Expanse|Hydian Forces]], the Kumquat Coalition officially switches strategic plans for the system from denying the [[Shadow Dominion]] control to holding position to allow [[Corliss & Co.]] to take the system. Thus, the Hydian Expanse and the Kumquat Coalition implement the Blockade of Khuiumin. They are backed by contingents of the Restored Empire, few independent mercenaries and the meanwhile arrived Pentastar Alignment. The arrival of [[Imperial Union]] forces in the Khuiumin system marks a significant change to the overall situation. It directly lead to the negotiation of the Truce of Khuiumin by all anti-pirate parties. Moreover, it forced the implementation of an exclusion zone by the Kumquat Coalition and the Hydian Expanse, in order to avoid complex political situations involving parties otherwise adversarial in the Galactic Civil War.
As a direct result of the allied planetary ground operations focusing on search and destroy, as well as the space blockade, the pirate forces of the Shadow Dominion become almost trapped on Courkrus. The pirates, chased by Corliss & Co. and Kumquat forces, attempt to avoid entrapment but become engaged in a firefight during which [[Galen McGruff]] is incapacitated by a Corliss unit under [[Sol Kerrelan]]. Khagan Shalas, covered by a complement of his own battle droids, manages to provide first aid under heavy fire, thus securing McGruffs escape <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49138 The Khuiumin Survivors - From the Log of Captain Krodo Rask]</ref>. While the allied forces miss to destroy the last pirate vessel, Khagan Shalas offers surrender for free passage for his people to the Hydian Expanse. This offer, although ultimately overcome by the events to unfold, was received with notable respect amongst the leadership of the anti-piracy coalition.

In the final hours of the day, a [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] Kaloth-class leaves hyperspace and reinforces the Imperial Union's presence at Khuiumin.

Unrelated to the ongoing battle, trade negotiations between the Son-Tuul Pride and [[Blue Star Dominion]] begin for the former's holdings in the Khuiumin system.

===Day 111===
During a changing of the guard under command of the Hydian Expanse, at least 14 ranking pirates of the [[Shadow Dominion]] manage to break through the blockade and exfiltrate the planet Courkrus aboard their last remaining ship. However, they leave [[Bork Shalas]], who launched a suprise attack against the anti-piracy coalition in order to create a diversion, [[Nikolaj Eyre]] and a small band of pirates behind <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49138 The Khuiumin Survivors - From the Log of Captain Krodo Rask]</ref>. Khagan Shalas and his pirates subsequently continue their fight using ambushes and sporadic attacks with the anti-piracy coalition until they are rescued four days later on a third attempt.

On Day 112, an elaborate false flag operation at the behest of the Shadow Dominion to rescue their leader fails. [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] (JOE) exposed enemy agent Saiko Nagazi within its ranks, who was tasked with the rescue of Khagan Shalas. However, Nagazi's ship, transmitting unauthorized IFF keys, was intercepted by joint Kumquat and Hydian Expanse forces after entering the exclusion zone. Compeer [[Mika Noris]] personally conducted the inspection of the ship and took the enemy into custody; for operational reasons, the enemy was then interned on Courkrus A. The Son-Tuul Pride places a bounty of 750 million credits on Nagazi's rescue.

[[Corliss & Co.]], backed by the might of the Hydian Expanse and assisted in its venture by the Kumquat Coalition and the Imperial Union, issues a galactic wide warning via the Galactic News Service regarding Khuiumin, specifically to not engage in unauthorized negotiations with the Shadow Dominion <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49125 Priority message: Khuiumin]</ref>. Allied ground combat and engineering operations continue to twist off the Shadow Dominion's choking grip from Courkrus. Meanwhile, the space blockade remains in effect.

===Day 115===
[[File:ransom_khuiumin_27_115_0830.png|200px|thumb|left|Shadow Dominion issues ransom demands for Khuiumin, Year 27 Day 115; 08:30.]]The remaining, trapped pirates under the command of Khagan [[Bork Shalas]] are extracted by a smuggling team with the help and exerting the influence of Ximaro Jix <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49130 Emergency Broadcast: Khagan Escapes]</ref><ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49138 The Khuiumin Survivors - From the Log of Captain Krodo Rask]</ref>. Investigations conducted independently by Kumquat and Seperatist Intelligence revealed on Day 116, that Fryst Ulfur from Kolohe Mining Group MK2 negotiated a private deal with [[Nikolaj Eyre]] from [[Bounty Hunters Guild]]. While this deal allowed Nikolaj Eyre to escape Courkrus in exchange for several entrenchments held by Eyre, it also enabled for Khagan Shalas and his remaining loyal pirates to be smuggled off the planet and through the exclusion zone enforced by the anti-piracy coalition. Fryst Ulfur transfers the obtained planetary holdings to [[Corliss & Co.]], including some on the moon Courkrus A. As a direct result, the forces of the anti-piracy coalition implement changes to their rules of engagement and increase alert readiness. Following the successful escape, the [[Shadow Dominion]] alters the ransom demands for its Khuiumin holdings and alleges a change of strategy from open battle to taking targeted action against the interests of the Rebels and [[Corliss & Co.]] in the region.

===Day 117===
The Son-Tuul Pride and Blue Star Dominion successfully conclude negotiations, with the latter purchasing the former's holdings in the system. Subsequently, the Blue Star Dominion offers a substantial portion of the holdings to Corliss & Co. at no cost, but the Hydian Expanse instead hardens its diplomatic stance towards the Blue Star Dominion in line with its previous declaration <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49125 Priority message: Khuiumin]</ref>.

The Kumquat Coalition maintains blockade, but begins to prepare withdrawal from Khuiumin system having met its strategic and tactical objectives. On Day 118, during its own withdrawal from the Khuiumin system, Havoc Squad breaks the Truce of Khuiumin and opens fire on a Kumquat Coalition starship. Tresario Star Kingdom and Pentastar Alignment pledge to the truce and maintain a no-fire stance towards Kumquat Coalition. Two days later, the Pentastar Alignment also opens fire on a Kumquat Coalition vessel. However, contrary to an intended shot, TPA is claiming a weapons malfunction.

[[Zarkorious Valhazak]] from [[Stryker Military Services]], using fake credentials, is refused an unauthorised planetary approach of Courkrus A through the exclusion zone of Courkrus. The intelligence services of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Kumquat Coalition warn the leaders of the anti-piracy coalition of an imminent hostile attack threat on Khuiumin on Day 122. The following day, two invading Kaloth-class frigates belonging to the Bounty Hunters Guild are destroyed.

===Day 124===
Stryker Military Services outed as hostile agent amongst the Members of the Kumquat Coalition on Day 124.
On Day 127 the [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] arrives to Khuiumin system reinforcing Kumquat Coalition forces, having concluded hosting the 21st Tatooine Swap Meet. The following days, some arriving smugglers are deterred from entering the system by Hydian Expanse forces.
On Day 131, Son-Tuul Pride restyles itself Eternal Empire <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49149 Our Chains are Broken...]</ref><ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49165 The War Rages ]</ref>. Shortly thereafter, Saiko Nagazi is released from Courkrus A exchange by [[Corliss & Co.]] as part of a prisoner exchange. On Day 132 and 133 Courkrus planetary and moon control solidified for [[Corliss & Co.]], thus ending the blockade. The Kumquat Coalition departs from Khuiumin.

Much later, Saiko Nagazi is revealed a JOE double agent and labelled a traitor by the Eternal Empire.

}}

Following the discovery of the [[Khuiumin]] system by Captain [[Krodo Rask]] of the [[Eyttyrmin Batiiv Pirates]], the Rebellion received intelligence on the pirates' intent to settle the system. Due to the proximity of Khuiumin to territory under control of the Rebellion, select Rebel Commanders decided that their groups would attempt to deny these settlement attempts. These Rebels formed the [[Kumquat Coalition]] and informed the Galaxy of the existance of Khuiumin System and intent to contest. Local [[Eidola]] pirates joined forces with the Kumquat Coalition and engaged the [[Shadow Dominion]], who rallied in support of [[Son-Tuul Pride]] and the [[Eyttyrmin Batiiv Pirates]]. In a lengthy space battle lasting from Day 106 to Day 108, the space forces of the [[Shadow Dominion]] were defeated.

The appearance of [[Corliss & Co.]], a member of the [[Hydian Expanse]], was harbinger of the events to unfold: The arriving forces of the Hydian Expanse and [[Imperial Union]] led to a complex political situation. Powers opposing each other in the [[Galactic Civil War]] and neutrals agreed on the Truce of Khuiumin. Allowing for the systems' complete lockdown and blockade, the Shadow Dominion was ousted and secured the system for Corliss & Co. of the Hydian Expanse. The truce was later broken by [[Havoc Squad]], who opened fire on Rebel units shortly before leaving the system.

In an assessment, the War for Khuiumin yields interesting perspectives. The Shadow Dominion was not able to contest the power of the Kumquat Coalition in open battle. This held all the more so after the arrival of major [[Hydian Expanse]] and [[Imperial Union]] forces. The Kumquat Coalition, the Hydian Expanse and the Imperial Union, representing the three major blocks either opposing each other and neutral in the [[Galactic Civil War]], were united in their interest to fight the pirates.
Subsequent complex political maneuvering and ultimately the Truce of Khuiumin allowed a sustainable system blockade to establish [[Corliss & Co.]] as ruling power of the system. Despite this achievement, the anti-piracy coalition failed to prevent Khagan Shalas and his pirates from escaping Khuiumin and thus, punishment. The escape and survival of Khagan Shalas allowed the [[Son-Tuul Pride]] to restyle as the [[Eternal Empire]].

The Son-Tuul Pride sold its holdings in the system to the [[Blue Star Dominion]], an uninvolved Rebel government, leading the [[Hydian Expanse]] to declare hostility toward the Blue Star Dominion.

==Timeline==
===Day 101===
The Khuiumin system is discovered by chance by a small group of Eyttyrmin Batiiv pirates led by Captain Krodo Rask. Following the discovery, Captain Rask sends a signal to Khagan Bork Shalas, requesting immediate assistance from the Son-Tuul Pride in conquering the system. The Son-Tuul Pride heeds that call and sends its hordes. The explorers initially focus on conquering the planet Courkrus as quickly as possible. Two days later, the Hordes of the Pride eagerly arrive. The Son-Tuul Pride begins to close down system space to foreign intruders. <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49138 The Khuiumin Survivors - From the Log of Captain Krodo Rask]</ref> However, on Day 102, the Eidola pirates are informed of the Eyttyrmin Batiiv pirates discovery <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49160 Giant Squabeliks and Secret Agents: How Khuiumin Turned Into a War Zone]</ref>.

===Day 104===
The Leaders of the Rebellion are informed of the discovery of the Khuiumin system at 10:00 CGT. Following a brief assessment of the available intelligence and taking political and strategic considerations into account, the Rebellion decides to establish an ad hoc Organisation. The Kumquat Coalition is formed with the aim of disrupting pirate activities in the Khuiumin sector and, ideally, preventing the pirates from establishing a strategic base there. Following this decision, the [[The Resistance|Resistance]], the [[The Jedi Order|Jedi Order]], [[-ARK-]], [[TIEFE]] and [[Rogue Squadron]] and [[Total Outer Rim]] announce an immediate response and deploy their own forces.
A press release intended for broadcast on the Galactic News Service was drafted and published after the system’s presence had been confirmed by rebel forces on the ground<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49114 DESTINATION: KHUIUMIN ]</ref>. The GNS attracted galactic attention, and groups such as the [[Bounty Hunters Guild]] led by [[Nikolaj Eyre]] and the [[The Pentastar Alliance|Pentastar Alliance]] led by [[Dane Star]] announced their intention to set off for Khuiumin.

===Day 105===
A-Wings from Rogue Squadron are conducting combat reconnaissance flights near the planet Courkrus when they come under attack from Eyttyrmin Batiiv Raider-class corvette 'Prydwen'. Under the coordination of Grand Admiral Azzameen and leadership of Master Memnoch, the Total Outer Rim begins constructing defence stations at tactically important locations. Son-Tuul Pride is countering Total Outer Rim by setting up relay stations, which, according to a rebel intelligence service, may at a later date be replaced by the pirates with as of yet unknown weapons. Under the command of Banner-Prätor Blot Hlidskjalf, TIEFE is joining forces with Total Outer Rim to expand the system’s defences. It was also reported to the Kumquat Coalition via rebel intelligence, that the Hydian Expanse was on its way to Khuiumin.

===Day 106===
[[Kolohe Mining Group MK2]] Corona-class frigates and [[Eidola|Eidolon]] corvettes, including a rare CR92 Battle Corvette commanded by Warlord Warrington, engage the STP pirates in a skirmish. A TIEFE Kaloth-class frigate and -ARK- Fury-class corvette join KMG and Eidolon forces, while TIEFE, RS and TOR continue system defense construction operations. TIEFE manages to place a Golan II station around 14:15 CGT covering the Khuiumin northeastern hyperspace entry. Corliss & Co. forces conduct planetary reconnaissance while preparing for ground combat and combat engineering operations on the planet of Courkrus. Separatist Intelligence uncovers information of raw materials being mined and shipped to Khuiumin by the Subduco Syndicate in support of the Son-Tuul Pride: subsequently, Seperatist Intelligence operatives manage to cancel all mining operations disrupting these raw material supplies.

===Day 107===
Son-Tuul Pride Kaloth-class frigates 'Fenrir #5' and 'Ravager #14' and Eyttyrmin Batiiv Corona-class frigates 'Crimson Cutlass' and 'Smoking Flintlock', supported by Raider-class corvettes, a variety of gunboats and a sizeable wing of Toscan 8-Q, BTL-S3 Y-wing and Star Saber XC-01 MkII Starfighters, attempt to hold space superiority. Thus, the pirates engage the forces of the Kumquat Coalition and neutrals entering the system alike, with multiple skirmishes occuring at all system hyperspace entry points. Meanwhile, the pirates successfully manage to establish initial beachheads and construct defensive perimeters on the planets of Courkrus, Khuiumin II, Khuiumin III and the moon Courkrus B. In a coordinated Eidolon and Kumquat Coalition effort, Warlord Carl Warrington and Jedi Master Thragg Craghorn attempt to break through the pirate defensive lines of Khuiumin III and establish a beachhead themselves around 16:15 CGT. Notably, this operation is prevented by the Son-Tuul Pride <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49160 Giant Squabeliks and Secret Agents: How Khuiumin Turned Into a War Zone]</ref>. During the fighting, a TOR Mammoth-class Heavy Hauler is utilized to initiate construction of a heavy Golan II station on the systems southern hyperspace entry point. Kumquat stationary system defense operations conclude successfully with the placement of that station and the TOR combat engineers withdraw from the system. The Krath arrives and conducts system reconnaisance using ATR spacecraft. Later the day, most space combat operations shifted towards the western hyperspace entry point and Kumquat Coalition forces fight side by side with [[Corliss & Co.]] 'Shadow Ledger' flight of ATR-6 Assault Transports and Corona-class frigate 'Mandate of the Board'.

===Day 108===
[[File:Khuiumin_27_108_1000.png|200px|thumb|left|Tactical display of the space battle of Khuiumin, Kumquat Coalition perspective, Year 27 Day 108; 10:00.]]
Kumquat Coalition Intelligence notes that the Galactic Census Bureau updates records for Khuiumin system around 01:30 CGT. The increasing population, but without governmental acclamation, is testament to the activities of the Shadow Dominion. Four and a half hours later, the system control is updated by the Bureau to [[Son-Tuul Pride]] with a simultaneous update to Khuiumin III, which the pirates brought under their control. Courkrus A is also reported to be secured by the pirates. [[The Exchange]] and [[Triumvirate Coalition]] forces arrive, reinforcing the Kumquat Coalition. Frigate sized vessels of the Unnamed Imperium and the Bounty Hunters Guild, shortly after to be shown linked to the pirates, appear at a rendezvouz point near Khuiumin. Around 09:00?? CGT, the space [[Battle of Khuiumin]] erupts above Courkrus, with Kumquat forces under the overall command of Master Falte. A Jedi Order CR-90 corvette and an Eidola ground detachment make successful landfall on Courkrus. Roughly at 10:00 CGT, the Khuiumin system's proper registration with the Galactic Census Bureau has been completed and the system was broadcast via the Galactic News Service. Following the withdrawal of their combat engineering troops, an assault fleet from the [[Total Outer Rim]] joins the space battle, and the fighting subsides later that day with the remaining pirate space forces either destroyed or forced out of the system. Following the destruction of pirate spacecraft, the Kumquat Coalition observes unexplainable pirate Escape Pod flight patterns. Kumquat forces from now on hold the system space, and systematically begin establishing Courkrus atmospheric control, while allied forces begin to clear Courkrus planet of hostile presence in focused search and destroy operations. These include notorious pirate Warlord Carl Warrington himself and [[Corliss & Co.]], who commence construction operations to contest Courkrus planetary control from the Shadow Dominion.

===Day 109===
[[File:Khuiumin_27_109_1300.png|200px|thumb|right|Jedi Master Craghorn engages pirates on Courkrus, Kumquat Coalition perspective, Year 27 Day 109; 13:00.]] Under the command of Master Falte, Consul Shaynar and General Descartes, the Kumquat Forces are continuing their interception and interdiction operations to secure dominance in space. The main forces of the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems]] and the bulk of the [[Hydian Expanse]] arrive to the Khuiumin area of operations. Around 16:30 CGT, forces from the Hydian Expanse take up their combat positions in the Khuiumin system. Quickly, rapport is established between the Hydian Expanse and the Kumquat Coalition to jointly deny the Shadow Dominion Khuiumin and support Corliss & Co. in their quest for the system. The Kumquat Coalition joins ground combat operations, targeting pirate beachheads and landborne pirate spacecraft. Eidolon and Rogue Squadron combat engineers and ground troops support Corliss construction operations on the eastern sectors of Courkrus in order to contest planetary control <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49160 Giant Squabeliks and Secret Agents: How Khuiumin Turned Into a War Zone]</ref>. Anecdotally, the Pirate Warlord Warrington and the Rebel Admiral Azzameen, former adversaries at [[Elder_Dumping:_Breaking_News_from_the_Bes_System|Bes]], shake hands on a remote spot in the wilderness of Courkrus. The Hydian Expanse and the Kumquat Coalition both are reporting further pirate Escape Pod performing unexplainable maneuvres, which are ultimately converging towards the surface of Courkrus. The stranded pirates become trapped under the anti-piracy coalitions' blockade.

===Day 110===
The Kumquat Coalition releases a press communique via the Galactic News Services with an update reflecting the outcome of the combat activities, including the destruction of hundreds of spacecraft, of the previous days <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49123 Shadow Dominion Announces “Strategic Tourism Initiative” Following Minor System-Wide Defeat]</ref>. Meanwhole on the ground, combat activities carry on. During a planetary combat patrol, Consul Scarne of the Kumquat Coalition came under heavy fire from overwhelming enemy forces. As she managed to escape virtually unscathed, she was nicknamed the ‘Ghost of Kumquat’ <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49123 Shadow Dominion Announces “Strategic Tourism Initiative” Following Minor System-Wide Defeat]</ref>.
With ground operations proceeding, established space dominance and the arrival the [[Hydian Expanse|Hydian Forces]], the Kumquat Coalition officially switches strategic plans for the system from denying the [[Shadow Dominion]] control to holding position to allow [[Corliss & Co.]] to take the system. Thus, the Hydian Expanse and the Kumquat Coalition implement the Blockade of Khuiumin. They are backed by contingents of the Restored Empire, few independent mercenaries and the meanwhile arrived Pentastar Alignment. The arrival of [[Imperial Union]] forces in the Khuiumin system marks a significant change to the overall situation. It directly lead to the negotiation of the Truce of Khuiumin by all anti-pirate parties. Moreover, it forced the implementation of an exclusion zone by the Kumquat Coalition and the Hydian Expanse, in order to avoid complex political situations involving parties otherwise adversarial in the Galactic Civil War.
As a direct result of the allied planetary ground operations focusing on search and destroy, as well as the space blockade, the pirate forces of the Shadow Dominion become almost trapped on Courkrus <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49138 The Khuiumin Survivors - From the Log of Captain Krodo Rask]</ref>. However, the allied forces missed to destroy also the last pirate vessel in time, allowing for the successful exfiltration of the bulk of the Shadow Dominion forces and commanders <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49138 The Khuiumin Survivors - From the Log of Captain Krodo Rask]</ref>.

Unrelated to the ongoing battle, trade negotiations between the Son-Tuul Pride and Blue Star Dominion begin for the former's holdings in the Khuiumin system.

===Day 112===
[[Corliss & Co.]], backed by the might of the Hydian Expanse and assisted in its venture by the Kumquat Coalition and the Imperial Union, issues a galactic wide warning via the Galactic News Service regarding Khuiumin, specifically to not engage in unauthorized negotiations with the Shadow Dominion <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49125 Priority message: Khuiumin]</ref>. Allied ground combat and engineering operations continue to twist off the Shadow Dominion's choking grip from Courkrus. Meanwhile, the space blockade remains in effect.

===Day 115===
[[File:ransom_khuiumin_27_115_0830.png|200px|thumb|left|Shadow Dominion issues ransom demands for Khuiumin, Year 27 Day 115; 08:30.]]The remaining, trapped pirates under the command of Khagan [[Bork Shalas]] are extracted by a smuggling team <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49138 The Khuiumin Survivors - From the Log of Captain Krodo Rask]</ref>.

===Day 117===
The Son-Tuul Pride and Blue Star Dominion successfully conclude trade negotiations, with the Dominion purchasing the Pride's holdings in the system. The Hydian Expanse subsequently declares hostilities against the Blue Star Dominion in spite of its diplomatic discussions with and generous offer to Corliss & Co.; the Dominion does not respond to the Expanse's aggression.

===Day 118===
The Kumquat Coalition maintains blockade, but begins to prepare withdrawal from Khuiumin system having met its strategic and tactical objectives. Havoc Squad breaks the truce of Khuiumin and opens fire upon its own withdrawal from the Khuiumin system. Tresario Star Kingdom and Pentastar Alignment pledge to the truce and maintain no-fire stance towards Kumquat Coalition. Two days later, the Pentastar Alignment also opens fire on a Kumquat Coalition vessel, however, contrary to an intended shot, claiming a weapons malfunction. The intelligence services of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Kumquat Coalition warn the leaders of the anti-piracy coalition of an imminent hostile attack threat on Khuiumin on Day 122. The following day, two invading Kaloth-class frigates belonging to the Bounty Hunters Guild are destroyed.

===Day 124===
Stryker Military Services outed as hostile agent amongst the Members of the Kumquat Coalition.

===Day 127===
The [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] arrives to Khuiumin system reinforcing Kumquat Coalition forces, having concluded hosting the 21st Tatooine Swap Meet. The following days, some arriving smugglers are deterred from entering the system by Hydian Expanse forces.

===Day 131===
On Day 131, Son-Tuul Pride rechristians itself Eternal Empire <ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49149 Our Chains are Broken...]</ref><ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=49165 The War Rages ]</ref>.
On Day 132 Courkrus planetary control solidified for Corliss & Co., and Kumquat Coalition departs from Khuiumin.

[[Tomas o`Cuinn]] (pronounced /toʊˈmɑːs oʊˈkwɪn/) is a well-known businessman, industrial specialist, and military commander. He is one of two Marshals of the [[Blue Star Dominion]], Waadas'alor of [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], Governor of the [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector, and Patriarch of Clan o`Cuinn. Tomas is best known for founding the [[Gree Trade Authority]], [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], and [[Blue Star Dominion]] between [[Year 15]] and [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). He originally gained widespread recognition for his highly-advertised trading career along with galactic notoriety for his public position with the [[Black Sun|Black Sun]] crime syndicate before being dismissed from the organization at the end of [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). He has also served as a Theater Commander and third-in-command of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and as Deputy Secretary-General of the [[Galactic Alliance]].

</table></center>
Per the earliest relevant records, Tomas o`Cuinn, 20 years old, served as the youngest of seventy-five [[Mandalorian]] members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' - ''[[Mando'a]]'' for "Those Who No Longer Exist" - which was formed to train the clone commandos for the [[Galactic Republic]] on the watery world of [[Kamino]] in Year 35 ([[BCGT]]). For close to ten years, Tomas and the other members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' served as training sergeants for the elite clone commandos of the Grand Army. These battle-proven sergeants taught the ten thousand commandos in a variety of ways, including teamwork, infiltration methods, demolition techniques, assassination and much more. Along with imparting their combat prowess and tactical skills, the [[Mandalorian]] trainers also included their cultural customs and way of life, believing it important that the clones know of their heritage - especially since their genetic template was a prominent [[Mandalorian]] - despite objections from the [[Kaminoan|Kaminoans]]. When the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems]] launched attacks against the [[Galactic Republic]] in the Sumitra and Centrality sectors in Year 25 ([[BCGT]]), the previously secret clone troopers were revealed and organized into the Grand Army of the [[Galactic Republic|Republic]]; this newly organized army was immediately deployed in response to the attacks. Thus begins the Clone Wars. With their contract ended, many of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' departed [[Kamino]] and returned to their former lives, though a few remained to train future generations of clones; Tomas was among those who left.

Despite having fulfilled the decade-long training mission, Tomas was far too duty-oriented to take any sort of vacation and, as such, soon accepted a contract on an obscure [[Outer Rim]] [[planet|world]]; the job consisted of a physical security consultation for the relatively unimportant planet's government. A hideout had been recently established in the natural caves of the planet's mountains and had already proved to be a threat as the enforcers of the newly-arrived criminal organization, known as -'''REDACTED'''-, began raiding the lightly-defended towns. The planet's militia was poorly trained and equipped - a far cry from the force required to ensure security and drive the unwanted raiders off of the planet. When the criminal enforcers began to invade and seize control of entire towns, the government sought aid from the [[Galactic Republic]], but, as a non-member, their pleas were all but ignored - largely due to the start of the Clone Wars. When the government, with nowhere else to turn, began offering contracts to mercenaries for their assistance, Tomas o`Cuinn answered the call.

Realizing that a simple consultation was far from sufficient, Tomas renegotiated the contract and set to training the militiamen in combat techniques that would prove effective when harassing a larger and better-equipped force. Over the course of almost a year, the militia learned to operate as small squads capable of rapid movement, using the terrain and darkness of night to engage in unconventional warfare against the overconfident force of organized raiders who, through their shared combat experience and uniquely strict leadership hierarchy, acted almost the same as a conventional army. To demonstrate that their hostile actions would no longer be tolerated and that the militia was capable of hurting them, Tomas instructed them in irregular and psychological warfare such as guerrilla tactics and booby traps. Taught to gather intelligence prior to any operation, the militiamen would strike rapidly at the enemy forces and disappear just as quickly, injuring or killing and sowing confusion among the criminal ranks. Coupling this with strategically-placed booby traps proved effective in decreasing morale and introducing fear into the gang's soldiers, limiting their combat capacity and ending their aggressive advances against the planet's towns.

</table></center>

As Year 23 ([[BCGT]]) rolled around, the criminal force's advance had been effectively stopped, and Tomas switched strategy and worked to turn the militia - now swelling with experience and confidence earned from success - into a highly disciplined and effective military force. Just as the new training regime was beginning, however, -'''REDACTED'''- quietly brought in its heavy hitters along with reinforcements to deal with the planet's unexpected resistance to subjugation. A surprise orbital bombardment on the militia's "hidden" training base caught the unsuspecting Tomas off guard, bringing the entire compound down around him and his trainees. Tomas, mortally-wounded from the structure collapsing on him, was recovered by -'''REDACTED'''- enforcers. With the knowledge that he had been the source of their troubles on the planet, local -'''REDACTED'''- leadership made the decision to keep Tomas alive - only long enough to suffer for his insolence. To this end, his shattered arms were amputated and replaced with basic cybernetic limbs, though they were useless for all but the most basic of tasks. A Lornan implant was installed into his brain to regulate his body's electrical current since it was now incapable of doing such naturally. A cheap ear implant was installed to recover his diminished hearing - they figured he should have to suffer his own screams. His lungs, damaged beyond repair by the chemical asphyxiation and smoke inhalation caused by the bombardment, were removed and replaced with a cybernetic pair. His damaged eyes and other injuries, however, weren't deemed as life-threatening.

After the string of surgeries and a brief stint in a bacta tank, Tomas was deemed fit to undergo an extensive program of systematic torture, attacking a specific area of the body at a time over the course of several months - always fixed up overnight in a bacta tank for the fresh treatment of pain the following day. This regulated torture lasted for two years, until -'''REDACTED'''- leadership decided the expense was no longer worth the continued punishment and opted to turn Cuinn into a trophy, displayed publicly to serve as a visible reminder of what happened to those who crossed them. The most effective process turned out to be carbon-freezing, with the design-intended tibanna gas being replaced with a [[Mandalorian]] named Tomas. He would hang on display for three decades, in the carbon-induced state of suspended animation, until the normal turnover of leadership resulted in his transgressions being forgotten and the outdated carbonite figure being removed and discarded. Due to his already-diminished physical condition, such as his almost non-existent eyesight, the standard effects of long-term suspended animation were barely noticeable, though what damage did occur was minimized by his cybernetic "enhancements" and eventually healed with an impressive amount of bacta when he was finally thawed from his carbonite imprisonment.

==Family. Honour. Profit.==
: "''It is a vast criminal syndicate...its influence felt on every planet from the Core Worlds to the Outer Rim. Black Sun has existed for hundreds of years and embedded itself in the very fiber of the galaxy. The resources at its disposal are almost limitless. The soldiers under its command number in the tens of thousands. The ignorant even call it the most powerful force in the known universe.''"
While it is not public knowledge what happened after his carbonite frame was discarded, Cuinn eventually emerged as an officer for the [[Black Sun]] crime syndicate. While his history with the syndicate was shrouded in secrecy, many of the details have been released since his expulsion from the organization in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). Originally recruited as a small-time enforcer, Tomas quickly worked his way up the ranks by producing results through sheer dedication and a hands-on work style. Most of his earned salary went towards improving his cybernetics, gradually returning the range of physical capabilities he'd enjoyed decades before. Of his career in [[Black Sun]], what is known is that he is a veteran of both the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, constructing homes and jobs for more than one hundred and fifty-five billion civilians and creating over one billion credits in additional monthly revenue for the syndicate. He also fought against the [[United_Rebel_Front|United Rebel Front]] during the Battle of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=5923 Axxila], securing complete control of the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=203 Ciutric Sector]. He also served as the Chief Operating Officer of the (now defunct) [[Hyrotii Corporation]] for some time, providing assistance to his good friend [[Rexan Vyrim]] during a period of increased raw material requirements. Cuinn personally re-wrote the [[Black Sun]] [http://holocron.swcombine.com/wiki/Black_Sun#Code_of_Conduct Code of Conduct], expanding its coverage and refining the format for an increased understanding, along with designing the entire training program that turned inexperienced recruits into knowledgeable and efficient members. He served as the middle ground between the Family Council and junior members, handling various personnel issues and relaying council orders throughout the chain of command. Near the end of his career with the syndicate, Cuinn was the highest-ranking officer and headed up the ("Indoctrination") Recruitment and Training division, while also working as an intelligence officer and senior member of [[Black Sun|Black Watch]].

Shortly after the [[Black Sun]] takeover of [[Xanxus Drol|Xanxus Drol’s]] company, [[The Guild Bank]], in early-to-mid [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]), Cuinn publicly sold off hundreds of the seized assets for vastly reduced prices compared to the market standard at the time. Cuinn's sales, even at reduced pricing, resulted in a net profit of almost two billion galactic credits for [[Black Sun]]. He was rewarded with a portion of the profits and an extra promotion for his role in the affair along with quickly accomplishing the massive amount of additional work without issue. The overwhelming number of sales and unusually low pricing also helped to build his public presence in the trading community.

His proven loyalty and dedicated work ethic were rewarded numerous times by both Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]] and Dark Princess [[Cait Catra]]. Despite a career demanding nothing short of respect, one of [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander von Ismay’s]] initial moves as the Dark Prince usurper was to force Cuinn out of the syndicate on the 354th day of [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander]] followed this by blacklisting and declaring Cuinn an enemy of [[Black Sun]] on the first day of [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]).

==The Opportunity of Gree==
: "''I know you're familiar with the ancient Rakata Infinite Empire. The Gree predate them by eons.''"
Tomas settled in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, accepting a position with the local Gree Enclave government as a security consultant to update the system's defenses from years of neglect. He immediately set himself to designing and overseeing construction on a series of shield networks and anti-orbital weapon platforms on each of the system's planets whilst simultaneously ordering the fabrication of new defensive and early warning space stations along the system's outer perimeter. His efforts eventually led to the founding of the [[Gree Trade Authority]], a multi-billion credit trade and security company that focused on furthering the system's development. He switched his focus toward rebuilding the infrastructure that was suppressed during [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lengthy occupation. Using his knowledge from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, he tasked the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority]] with construction infrastructure on [[Gree IV]], promoting increased immigration, tourism, and intersystem commerce.<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39174 Creating Jobs, Building Lives: Gree Trade Authority Sets Economic Records (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 16 Day 226)]</ref>.

[[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] formed numerous naval fleets to defend the system and ensure the safety of all citizens and visitors; chief among these was the impressive [[Aliit Dael'mor|Dael'mor]] fleet to help deter future attacks, formed around the former [[Black Sun]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial-class]] and [[Victory Star Destroyer|Victory-class]] [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]]. Supporting these fleets was a multi-tiered ring of defensive space stations of varying designs, including the Ataturk-class and Golan models I & II, placed in strategic locations throughout [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Placed along the outer edges of the system, a ring of XQ1-series platforms served as customs checkpoints, an advanced warning system, and the initial line of defense against pirates or other would-be invaders. Each of the platforms was supported by a [[Corona-class frigate|''Corona''-class frigate]] and sheltered two starfighter squadrons - one comprised of [[Y-wing]]s and the other of [[R-41 Starchasers|R-41 starchasers]] - for defense. An [[Imperial]] fleet arrived unexpectedly in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system in mid-[[Year 16]] ([[CGT]]), prompting the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to lock down planetary accesses and deploy its fleets in a defensive perimeter around the planets. The [[Galactic Empire]] had dispatched two [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyers]], three [[Victory Star Destroyer I|Victory I-class Star Destroyers]], and one [[Carrack/S-class Light Cruiser|Carrack/S-class light cruiser]] to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system at the behest and begging of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] Dark Prince, [[Alexander von Ismay]], due to his inability to muster their own [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] for such a show of force. While the [[Imperial]] fleet was certainly impressive, the Golan stations and [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] naval fleets would have been more than enough of a match to defend the system. However, the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] ships maintained a safe distance from [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] perimeter and simply flew reconnaissance sorties with a handful of [[TIE/sr Starfighter|TIE scouts]] whilst an [[Imperial]] Director sent casual threats to Tomas regarding [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] seized [[Star Destroyers]]. Eventually, the Imperial fleet departed, but this event spurred the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to open formal diplomatic relations with the [[New Republic]] and [[Galactic Alliance]]. Tomas knew that the Imperials would return in the future, and in greater number.

After former Underlord [[Alexander von Ismay]] was kicked out of [[Black Sun]] for petty theft and attempted blackmail, Tomas reached out to the new Dark Prince, [[Jeor Knight]], and the Family Council in an effort to quell the hostilities created by [[Alexander von Ismay|Ismay]] years before. Negotiations between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and [[Black Sun]] resulted in improved relations between the groups, as Tomas personally saw to the release of approximately one billion credits worth of [[Black Sun]]-owned vehicles that had been confiscated by [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]]. Dozens of crates containing various equipment owned by the syndicate were also released to a [[Black Sun]] pilot. Forty-two highly-trained operatives in the employ of Vigo and former Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]], and their rare and expensive equipment, were released from custody after years of imprisonment. [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] also publicly supported [[Black Sun]] in the Galactic News System<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39984 Black Sun - A Modern History Lesson (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 17 Day 167)]</ref> when the [[ViskCor News Network]] posted propaganda against the syndicate<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39979 Black Sun's Future in Imperial Union Uncertain (Hacked by Rayus Kestyn on Year 17 Day 166)]</ref>.

Early in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged a [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] employment opportunity to lure the notorious Varro Belle to [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Belle was the inside man in a [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] operation that allowed the capture of over a dozen [[Krath Dynasty]] officers, the impounding of a reported twenty-five hundred restricted starfighters, and the seizure of between twelve and thirty thousand crates of various equipment. Belle personally detained [[Lazarus Kell]], the current Emperor of [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]], during the operation's climax, and stole [[Lazarus Kell|Kell's]] prized lightsaber. The [[Krath Dynasty]] reported their losses two days later, on [[Year 17|17.262]] ([[CGT]])<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40212 Traitors strike from within the Krath (Posted by Ellias Aubec on Year 17 Day 262)]</ref>, and subsequently offered a five hundred million credit reward for his capture. Due to the [[Galactic Alliance]] and [[Krath Dynasty]] desperately wanting to see Varro Belle in cuffs, Tomas offered the criminal employment in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] star system, working construction for the [[Gree Trade Authority]]. Since Belle was a highly wanted criminal, he was desperate in seeking neutral employment in the mostly lawless [[Outer Rim Territories]] - but, as he soon learned, [[Gree (System)|Gree]] does not conform to the loose standards of law enforcement common throughout the region. After a few weeks of building trust, along with directly profiting from his labor, Tomas led a team of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] most experienced soldiers and detained Belle in orbit of the [[Gree IV]] gas giant. While Belle chose to fight back against his arrest, he was quickly overpowered by the cybernetic [[Mandalorian]] supported by an elite squad of [[Abyssin]] troops. A press release was provided to the galaxy on [[Year 18|18.53]] ([[CGT]]), less than twelve hours after his capture<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40566 Gree Press Release: Belles Are Ringing (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 18 Day 53)]</ref>. [[Lazarus Kell]], who had secured his release from [[Imperial Union]] custody and ascended the [[Krath Dynasty]] throne as Emperor, was eager to see Belle extradited from [[Gree (System)|Gree]] to [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]] to answer for his crimes. It was [[Krath Dynasty|Krath's]] Lord Imperator [[Talak Kasra]] that discussed the extradition with [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and, upon the successful negotiation, traveled to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to retrieve the prisoner. After the ordeal was finished, Tomas was overheard as stating that Belle's labor was estimated to have increased the [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree Trade Authority's]] gross monthly income by an approximate ten million credits.

From when the [[Gree Trade Authority]] was founded near the midpoint of [[Year 15]] to early [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree IV]] gas giant was the major investment and development project that consumed the majority of Tomas's time and attention. Under [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] leadership, the [[planet]] had simply served as a mining platform for tibanna gas; under the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority's]] management, however, the mining operations were greatly expanded with an emphasis on worker safety, mining process improvements, and employee morale. With an extensive investment campaign into the equipment and training for every mine worker, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was able to greatly increase the mining operation's size and, with its own investments and the increasing mine profits, extensively develop the system of interlinked platform cities across the gas giant's atmosphere. [[Gree IV]] housed barely one million citizens in [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]), but by [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), more than ten billion individuals would call the gas giant their home - an increase of ten thousand percent. The planet's economy grew with its population and become one of the largest, healthiest, and safest centers for trade and commerce in the [[Outer Rim]]. The success and development of [[Gree IV]] also led to the [[Gree Trade Authority]] being recognized by the [[galaxy]] as the governing entity of the entire [[Gree (Sector)|Gree]] sector, surpassing and replacing the [[Black Sun]] criminal syndicate.

==Command in the Resistance==
: "''So you're with the Resistance?''"
: "''Obviously. Yes I am. I'm with the Resistance, yeah. I am with the Resistance.''"
: "''I've never met a Resistance fighter before.''"
: "''Well this is what we look like, some of us. Others look different.''"
Knowing [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] precarious stance in the heart of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] territory, Tomas had worked in secret to support and ally his conglomerate with the [[New Republic]]. By [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree Trade Authority]] (and it's short-lived successor, the [[Gree Enclave]]) had signed a non-aggression pact with [[The Krath|the Krath]] and an alliance with the [[New Republic]], along with a technology agreement granting tier one access to the latter's technology. Despite this, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was acutely aware of how little a few powerful warships would matter if the [[Galactic Empire]] sent another fleet to their system. Tomas reached out to an old friend, [[The Resistance|Resistance]] Commander and former Deputy Director of [[New Republic|New Republic Intelligence]] Cedron Tryonel, and negotiations began regarding a merger between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and the [[The Resistance|Resistance]]. The result of these talks was the effective closure of the entire [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] conglomerate, with its membership and assets being absorbed into either [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] or the [[The Resistance|Resistance's]] operations.

Knowing that he suddenly had to worry about the entire [[Imperial Union]] along with operating on a galactic scale instead of simply in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, Tomas opened negotiations with Dark Prince [[Jeor Knight]] and Vigo [[Banquo Knox]] of [[Black Sun]] regarding their interest in re-obtaining [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. While negotiations were unforgiving, eventually a deal was struck to exchange Tomas's holdings in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system for [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] control over the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. The 11 billion inhabitants of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] were once again under the control of the crime syndicate, but their return to suffering was not for nothing as the approximate 165 billion civilians in the liberated sectors were suddenly freed from [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] grasp. While Tomas regretted [[Gree (System)|Gree's]] sacrifice, he knew that the liberation of two sectors was an acceptable price to pay. On top of this, galactic analysts quickly estimated [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lost revenue in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors as approximately 2.916 billion credits per year and expected the financial experts of the former [[Gree Trade Authority]] to quickly capitalize on establishing control of the businesses and income streams. Ultimately, Tomas sacrificed the four planets of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] in exchange for eight worlds - his deal cost only a single system and had taken two sectors away from the [[Imperial Union]], removing one of their strongholds in the galactic southeast. The [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector bordered space controlled by the [[New Republic]], [[The Krath|Krath]], and [[The eXiles]] - Tomas's removal of [[Black Sun]] from the sector solved a major security issue for the three [[Galactic Alliance]] groups.

After joining the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on the 85th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas spearheaded a reorganization that created several theaters of operation throughout the galaxy, each overseen by a commander who was tasked with developing and organizing their own staff and sector. Tomas was granted the rank of Theater Commander and command of the Deep Core and Morshdine Theaters, along with the third-in-command position of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and one of their three seats on the [[Galactic Alliance]] Leadership Council. Much of Tomas's work within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] has been withheld from the galactic public, though it is known that he was involved in Operation Unknown Signals, a joint task force between the [[New Republic]], [[The Resistance|Resistance]], and [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]) to respond to several distress calls originating from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=211 Tynna] [[sector]]. The task force flawlessly coordinated a [[sector]]-wide search in an effort to locate the frigates broadcasting their distress and, discovering them consecutively, rapidly dispatched dozens of hostile pirate groups at each of their locations. In the end, the joint operation was able to locate and rescue three of the four troubled [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates while the fourth was seized by the [[The Exchange|Exchange]]. Tomas was credited with just ten bandit kills, though he publicly attributed this to having only a half squadron of [[RZ-1 A-wing interceptor|A-wings]] and having spent the majority of his time flying reconnaissance before and during the combat engagements. As a reward for their aid, the Tynnani Defense Force awarded three [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates to three members of the [[New Republic]] for their individual performance, and two of the three voluntarily transferred their ships to the [[New Republic]]. One frigate was retained by the [[New Republic]] while the second was awarded to the [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] for their efforts; the third, intended for the [[The Resistance|Resistance]], was greedily kept by [[Lahasa Fy]] despite numerous offers of compensation. Tomas took issue with [[Lahasa Fy|Lahasa's]] actions, who had utilized task force intelligence, [[New Republic]] starfighters, and fought alongside pilots from all three groups, yet felt no apparent need to share in his reward; [[Lahasa Fy|Fy]] left the [[New Republic]] not long after.

Eventually, Tomas grew disillusioned with the state of the [[Galactic Alliance]], even after he was appointed to the position of Deputy Secretary-General. The distrust and lack of cooperation between the alliance's member states was a substantial issue in the fight against the [[Imperial Union]], which he had been a member of during his time in [[Black Sun]]. He began harboring resentment towards several member groups for their lack of contribution and activity within the alliance, and two of them had even spoken out strongly against him in his early appointment to the Leadership Council. Unwilling to put his energy into any sort of reform, and knowing it would likely fail due to certain inflexible leaders who predated his time in the alliance by more than a decade, Tomas ultimately decided that his future lay in another direction and resigned his posts both within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and [[Galactic Alliance]] near the end of [[Year 18]]. He had spent just less than a standard year in the positions combined, but felt that he had learned all that he needed to in order to realize that the [[Galactic Alliance|Galactic Alliance's]] fight against [[Imperial]] tyranny was doomed without serious change. After eight months as their third-in-command, Tomas departed the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on good terms on the 325th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]).

==Focusing on the Clan==
: "''I came to tell you that your people can expect to be busy in the next few months. A war is coming.''"
: "''You must be new in this galaxy. There's always a war going on somewhere, always has been, always will be. It's why Mandalorians have never gone out of business.''"
After his departure from the [[Galactic Alliance]], Tomas felt content that he could focus solely on himself and his [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian clan]], [[Dael'mor]], including the clan's holdings in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector. Chief among the required work was the removal of an alarming number of empty skyscrapers and barracks in [[Homon (System)|Homon]], abandoned when [[Black Sun]] had pulled out of the system, which Tomas contracted to [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul Khrog's]] [[Kerdos Company]] for two hundred and thirty million credits. After his project was completed, however, [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul]] disappeared from the [[galaxy]] under mysterious circumstances and the [[Kerdos Company]] suddenly under new management. No evidence has tied Tomas to the disappearance of the ex-[[Morgukai]], though plenty of rumors circulated in the following months. To further develop both of the sectors, Kez Aak's [[Endless Endeavors]] was contracted in a job estimated to be worth over five hundred million credits. Tomas also bankrolled the [[Amitus Corporation]] and acted as their Chief Financial Officer, but departed their organization after only three weeks due to unpublicized reasons.

</table></center>

On the 37th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas visited his closest ally aboard the '''[[Secutor]]''', [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer I|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] and flagship, where he was presented with a gift: a lightsaber with a green blade. Having sought to purchase a lightsaber throughout the galaxy for several years, even negotiating to pay up to five hundred million credits at one point in time, he was ecstatic with the gift given to him by [[Cait Catra]]. The lightsaber formerly belonged to Mladen Phantom, a Dark Jedi that [[Cait Catra|Catra]] had defeated several years prior, and kept as a trophy until it was gifted to Tomas. Although he was not afflicted with the [[force]], Tomas was already an avid swordsman and quickly adapted his melee combat skills to accommodate the lightsaber's unique requirements, such as all of the weight being in the hilt. He began training in Form V with a Djem So specialty, focusing on lightsaber dueling despite the obvious disadvantage he'd have against a force user. Djem So also played into the strength of his cybernetic arms, since the form relies on brute force to overpower an opponent's defense. Despite the avid attempts to train with his lightsaber, Tomas' lack of force sensitivity prevented him from achieving anything more than a basic level of dueling skill likely equivalent to that of a Padawan. Later in the year, Tomas struck a deal with his closest allies that net him a new flagship - the clan's [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] - in exchange for his controlling interests in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector, minus the ecumenopolis Woldona VII.

It was revealed near the beginning of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]) that Tomas had managed to produce more than eight hundred of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] proprietary [[Viper|Viper-class starfighters]] over a ten-month period through their negligence over access to the engineering specifications. The syndicate had failed to remove the blueprints from the shipyards in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system, though an unavoidable backdoor into the shared database system of the shipyards allowed the syndicate to remotely corrupt the engineering data after they realized their mistake. It proved far too late, however, as their error had allowed Tomas to produce more than four billion credits worth of [[Viper|Vipers]], valued on the market at five million credits each at the time of production. The market price for a single [[Viper|Viper-class starfighter]] dropped by fifty percent to two and a half million credits by the midpoint of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), however, after a large secondary supply flooded the market and [[Black Sun]] itself began to sell the fighters, likely in an attempt to both cash in on the demand due to their financial troubles and to create the appearance that the further release of their proprietary technology had barely affected the syndicate.

After the [[War for the Hosnian System]] began on the 195th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas quickly dropped his tasks in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system and set course for [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] in his [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wing interceptor]]. Despite the cramped, two-day trip, he arrived on the 198th day and immediately set to claiming land rights for future sale, securing legal ownership of five grids on [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=6243 Hosnian Prime] at the cost of eighteen million and six hundred thousand credits. He quickly sold the land rights to the [[New Republic]] for one hundred and seventy-five million credits, netting him a quick and tidy profit of just over one hundred and fifty-six million credits, immediately ensuring that the trip would be profitable. Afterward, the tremendous number of individuals and organizations flooding into the system in their own attempts to profit seemed to affect Tomas in a strange way. It was almost as if he could sense the growing number of people with hostile intent and it overwhelmed his senses, refusing to allow him any time to think or concentrate. He lost control of himself over the next several days but eventually snapped out of it, only to realize that he had hunted down and slaughtered more than three hundred sentients across three of the system's planets, cutting them down with his lightsaber as they had attempted to build basic infrastructure for their respective employers - the [[Galactic Empire]], [[Mecrosa]], and Veilhal Nomads. Torn with grief and regret over his actions, he departed the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system and returned to [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]], immediately seeking out a trusted physician to provide a throughout examination and explanation for his loss of control. Even after a substantial number of tests, the doctor simply concluded that one of his cybernetic implants had likely malfunctioned and triggered a psychotic episode.

Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), it somehow slipped into public knowledge that Tomas owned a hidden space station attached to an asteroid deep within [[the Maw]], an unstable and dangerous cluster of black holes located in the [[Kessel]] sector. Rumors surrounding the asteroid hideout suggest that it serves as a high-security prison for dangerous individuals from throughout the galaxy, sent and paid for by governments unable or unwilling to contain or execute the deadly parties. Paid handsomely for housing the risky prisoners, Tomas had ironically named the station ''Shelter'' and entrusted an unknown business associate with managing the prison for him.

==Establishing Sevetta==
Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), the remnants of the [[Gree Trade Authority]] banded together to re-emerge as the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], a collection of companies operating out of the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. Mirroring the former organization of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]], Tomas was appointed as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the conglomerate while each company's leaders became vice presidents and department heads in the overarching organization. [[DefenStar Ltd.]] was established as the flagship company for the conglomerate on [[Year 19|19.323]], [[Golan Arms]] opened on [[Year 19|19.343]], [[LodeCorp Mining]] re-opened on [[Year 20|20.002]], and [[Golan Construction]] was acquired and the [[Zaltin Corporation]] incorporated both on [[Year 20|20.160]] ([[CGT]])

When much of [[Helen Hawk|Helen Hawk's]] holdings were publicly auctioned off in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]) following her apprehension by the [[New Republic]], Tomas leveraged the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] substantial financial power to scoop up an [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter]], an [[MC-60 Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80a Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80b Star Cruiser]], and a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] for an undisclosed number of credits. The [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter|V-wing]] was sold to [[Sirius Cyan]] for five hundred million credits, while the [[MC-60 Star Cruiser|MC-60]] was traded to Robby Rae for a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] and a squadron of [[A/SF-01 B-wing Starfighter|B-wings]]; the destroyer was subsequently resold to Jimmy Roggeman for one and a half billion credits while the B-wings were individually sold to [[Drax Whittler]], Lazarus Grimm, [[Diabolus`ut Persolvo]], and [[Lorenzas Atticus]] for a combined two and three quarter billion credits. The [[MC-80a Star Cruiser|MC-80a]] was sold to [[Lilith Delcroix]] for five billion credits while the [[MC-80b Star Cruiser|MC-80b]] was sold to Esu Kyouto for eight billion credits. The final [[Sabaoth Destroyer]], however, was purchased primarily for the almost six billion credits worth of droids stored aboard which Tomas intended to sell at the next [[Jawa Swap Meet]] in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]). Even with reduced sales pricing of droids due to the increase of supply outweighing market demand, Tomas earned the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] four and a half billion credits of pure net profit from the business venture.

==The Mando'ade==
Although the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] monthly cash flow and net profits year-to-date were both in the billions of credits, Tomas grew disillusioned with running the conglomerate - just as he had with the [[Gree Trade Authority]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]). When he was approached by Mand'alor [[Kai Oryk]] about the formation of a new [[Mandalorian]] government near the mid-point of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas realized that his desire to return to the roots of his culture far outweighed the continued business success he had been pursuing for the past decade. He quietly set to disbanding the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and bringing [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], now under the leadership of his nephew [[Victor o`Cuinn]], under the banner of [[Mando'ade]]. [[DefenStar Ltd.]], [[Golan Construction]], and [[LodeCorp Mining]] were closed, while the [[Zaltin Corporation]] became a nationalized faction of [[Mando'ade]]; [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] assumed ownership and operation of [[Golan Arms]]. The [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] effectively shut its doors on [[Year 20|20.206]] ([[CGT]]) and [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] joined up [[Mando'ade]], with Tomas being granted the rank of Ko'verd and a position on the leadership council.

Tomas withdrew from the public eye and focused on his work within both [[Mando'ade]] and [[Dael'mor]]. Following the defection of [[CorSec]] to The Cooperative in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas purchased critical infrastructure on the world of [https://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=2843 Columus] from Jeff Kronn for a small fortune. In the confusion and aftermath of [[CorSec|CorSec's]] officers betraying their [[Galactic Empire]] masters, Tomas as able to secure the local population's loyalty and immediately sought to sell his holdings and influence for a profit. Soon after, Urkh Malal purchased Tomas' investment, earning the latter a reported two and a half billion credit profit in less than two months.

When the [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]] system was discovered near the end of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas established an allied coalition consisting of three different groups, which set course to the [[Western Reaches]] sector in an attempt to stake their claim. While they arrived barely in time to secure the smallest of land parcels in [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]], itself, they initiated a scouting mission within the sector due to rumors of another untouched system in the area. When they discovered the [[Takodana (System)|Takodana]] system on the 313th day of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), they quickly realize that the [[Trade Federation]] had beaten them there by approximately five days. Despite the head start and their colonization efforts underway, the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] had not yet solidified their grip over the planet and the coalition quickly moved to secure their own land rights on the planet. With the desire to prevent any bloodshed or hostilities with the [[Trade Federation]], Tomas opened negotiations with Duceroy Salamku Derov over the sale of their holdings and the cease of coalition operations on the world. A deal was struck and the coalition walked away with five hundred million credits for their troubles, having handed the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] their land and intel.

==Blue Star Dominion==
At the beginning of [[Year 21]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas decided that it was time for his people to set off on their own again. [[LodeCorp Mining]] was once again established on Day 12 to serve as a front organization for the group's activities, though it would come to grow into something much larger. After the fall of the [[New Republic]], [[LodeCorp Mining|LodeCorp]] established a mutual defense pact with the [[Rebel Alliance]] and re-confirmed its commitment against the [[Imperial Union]], later becoming a founding member of the [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] on Day 127 alongside the [[The Hyporian Commonwealth (Year 20 - Year 21)|Hyporian Commonwealth]], [[Mando'ade]], the [[Rebel Alliance]], and Stryker Military Services. The [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] was a regional defense treaty signed during the War for the Republic to defend the Galactic Southeast from an anticipated [[Imperial Union]] offensive. Despite the concern, [[Imperial Union]] activity was limited to the sectors of the former [[New Republic]] and territory sympathetic to the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] in the northern portions of the [[Outer Rim]].

On the 210th day, the [[Order of the One Sith]] became fractured upon the betrayal of [[Morgan Sathel]] and [[Kaze Zill]], who then turned on each other. [[Kaze Zill|Kaze]] was able to seize control of the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] world of [[Venaari]], which Tomas foresaw an opportunity with and purchased for three billion credits. A depot station orbiting the world was purchased from [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for a hundred and fifty million credits, while operatives were dispatched to bypass and disable the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] leader [[Darin Byrch|Darin Byrch's]] planetary shield network. While the operatives were en route, however, [[Darin Byrch|Darin]] agreed to exchange the shield network for one and a half billion credits - granting Tomas complete control. He was able to negotiate the resale of [[Venaari]] back to [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for eight billion credits, netting Tomas more than three billion credits in profit.

The desire to expand led to the establishment of the [[Blue Star Dominion]] as a sovereign government of the [[Sevetta]] sector and [[Dagu (System)|Dagu]] system on the 21st day of [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). On Day 80, Dominion Command was established to oversee operations and consisted of Cedron Tryonel, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn|Taranjeek o`Cuinn]], and Tomas o`Cuinn.

The [[Blue Star Dominion]] participated in the [[Tolonda Conflict]] led by the [[Jedi Order]] and took part in both the [[Jedi Order|Jedi's]] Operation ROID RAGE and its own Operation Appropriation. Operation Appropriation was the codename for a covert military action conducted by the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion's]] naval and marine forces to seize and destroy numerous ships owned by the [[Sith Imperium]]. With the majority of the Imperium's forces scrambling in response to their late discovery of the [[Jedi Order|Jedi Order's]] Operation ROID RAGE, Dominion Marshal Tomas o`Cuinn quietly outlined a plan with Sith Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau]], an independent operative sympathetic to the rebel cause, to launch a clandestine assault behind enemy lines. Calculating that they had a limited window of opportunity to strike, the Dominion borrowed two local [[Modular Taskforce Cruiser|Modular Taskforce Cruisers]] from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] to bring their total in the [[Tolonda]] sector to three. Two of the cruisers were dispatched to the [[Tamra (System)|Tamra]] system under the commands of Tomas and Taranjeek o`Cuinn while the third was committed to the [[Oshora (System)|Oshora]] system under the command of [[Kaze Zill]]. Each of the warships was manned by several companies of Dominion marines and escorted to the outskirts of their respective target systems by the Dominion Navy, which broke off outside of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] sensor range in an effort to maintain the cruiser's stealth. Transmitting false IFF codes, each cruiser casually made its approach into the respective system and successfully evaded notice by the Sith. In the early hours of the morning on Day 60, Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau|Tau]] transferred the access codes of the entire [[Sith Imperium]] fleet to Dominion Command, signaling execution of the plan. With much of the Imperium's personnel occupied elsewhere, the vessels in the target areas were either manned by only skeleton crews or unmanned entirely. Dominion marines rapidly executed boarding maneuvers on hundreds of ships in the three locations, quietly subduing the confused and quickly overwhelmed crews before they could raise any alarm and captured the bridges. Tractor beams from the cruisers swiftly moved the occupied vessels into their docking bays while others were flown and docked manually. The Dominion successfully seized over three hundred of the Sith Imperium's ships before the transfer of access codes was noticed and a remote reset command was sent to the fleet, prompting a hasty exit from the system for the cruisers amid the confusion and leaving behind a chaotic embarrassment for the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] to wake up to. At least two [[BFF-1 Bulk Freighter|BFF-1 bulk freighters]] were destroyed during the operation, reportedly at the hands of their own crew. An unconfirmed report from across the galaxy in the Ottega system alleged that, at the same time as the Dominion operation, an [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] [[Mammoth-class Heavy Hauler|Mammoth-class heavy hauler]] was mysteriously destroyed by what local authorities described as a remote slicing attack that exploited its fuel line. Analysts throughout the galaxy have since estimated that the Imperium lost a quarter of their entire naval fleet. Many of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] lost vessels were later used as target practice and subsequently destroyed by a Rebel task force deployed to the Petabys Conflict Zone during an unrelated operation.

After the [[Galactic Empire|Galactic Empire's]] triumph over the [[New Republic]] in [[Year 21]], months of subsequent conflict and territorial changes left thousands of outposts abandoned throughout the [[Outer Rim]]. One of these vacated bases, known as Stardew Station, was marked as an unimportant observatory at the edge of the galaxy in low-level [[New Republic]] files, yet no coordinates were included. As the combat being waged between the [[Imperial Union]] and Rebels dragged on, forces from both sides haphazardly uncovered fragments of intelligence that were carelessly secured and sloppily transmitted. The Information Operations Network (ION), a Rebel-developed intelligence tool, frequently intercepted slivers of the relayed data in an attempt to piece together the information as if it were a puzzle. It was through ION that Stardew Station was first flagged as a location of interest in [[Year 22]] due to the unusual personnel assignments prior to the outpost's desertion; the research scientists attached to the station specialized in interstellar navigation, advanced weapons development, metallurgy engineering, and progressive propulsion technologies. After the location of interested was flagged, it became easier for ION to rapidly process future incoming data relevant to that location and, after a few weeks longer, coordinates for Stardew were ascertained - the [[Pelgrin]] sector. A report was automatically generated for review by an analyst, who examined the data and determined that Stardew was worth exploring. A joint task force was formed between two nearby Rebel groups, the [[Blue Star Dominion]] and Stryker Military Services, and dispatched to investigate Stardew Station. Warden [[Kaze Zill]] was deployed to lead a detachment of Dominion Ghosts as the task force's ground unit, while Stryker's Mika Noris commanded a squadron of elite pilots to provide both naval superiority and transportation. Upon arrival at Stardew's coordinates, the task force fell under immediate attack by a coalition of pirate organizations intent on plundering the station's secrets. While his squadron engaged the pirate vessels, Noris skillfully hacked into the station's control systems, disabling the automated defenses and securing the Ghosts an opening to insert into Stardew. The Ghosts advanced through the station, combating the pirate crew who proved limited challenge for the force users and their disciplined troops. Unsupported by the station's defenses that Noris previously disabled, the pirate armada realized heavy casualties to the superior Stryker pilots. Losing contact with their forces inside as the Dominion secured the station, the pirate remnants disengaged and withdrew from Stardew. Stardew Station played host to a classified research and development program for the [[New Republic]]. The scientist's mission was to develop an advanced attack corvette capable of serving as a fleet escort picket ship and long-range patrol craft, along with countering the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] formidable DP-20c gunship. While most of the technological research had been completed and verified, the design team had not yet engineered the actual vessel. As the remnants of the [[New Republic]] were still reforming into the [[Rebel Alliance]] elsewhere in the galaxy, it was determined that completing the development of this ship was best suited to the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] and Stryker. Assisted by ION, research teams led by the Dominion's Marshal Cedron Tryonel and Stryker's Jaria Feri partnered to develop the [[MC-30b Corvette]]. Working prototypes were assembled soon after completion of the design and the vessel was quickly put into service.

Upon investigating distress calls on Day 331 of [[Year 22]], the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] discovered the lost system of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] in their capital sector of [[Sevetta]]. Rapidly perceiving that the sole planet was home to heavily-entrenched criminal cartels, Dominion Command called upon their allies for assistance in emancipating the oppressed population of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] spearheaded Operation Kowak, publicly known as the [[Battle for Kowak]], and led a large Rebel coalition to successfully liberate [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] from the criminal warlords and protect the system from potential opportunists. The coalition consisted of [[The Antarian Rangers]], [[-ARK-]], [[DOM Arsenal]], [[The Exchange]], [[Grand Duchy of Froz]], [[The Invid Order]], [[Jedi Order]], [[Mando'ade]], [[Rebel_Alliance_(Year_21)|Rebel Alliance]], [[The Resistance]], [[Rogue Squadron]], [[Stryker Military Services]], [[Ternion Corps]], and [[TIEFE]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] issued a public travel advisory on Day 332<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46276 Kowak System Travel Restriction (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 332)]</ref>, claiming control of the system and promising military action against potential invaders. Throughout the operation, the Rebel coalition continuously shipped in infantry battalions, thousands of starfighters, dozens of corvettes, and powerful capital warships such [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] and Mon Calamari Star Cruisers. [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] was fully secured on Day 337<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46293 Dominion Liberates the Kowak System (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 339)]</ref>, leading to the scaling down of the coalition's operations during the following weeks.

=Supplemental Information=
===Description===
: "''I'm just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe.''"
Tomas is a [[Hapan]] [[Category:Males|male]] of standard build standing 1.8 meters in height, rather unimposing and disarming in appearance. Despite being born in Year 55 ([[BCGT]]) and being more than seventy years old, his physical body is approximately three decades younger due to the years spent in suspended animation. Prior to skin replacement, his torso had worn a half-lifetime of scars from years spent training and fighting. Very rarely will he shed the protection of his custom-forged set of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=69 heavy battle armour] and [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=70 helmet]. A [[DLT-20a]] blaster rifle hangs on his back, held by a sling around his torso, while a pair of lightsabers hang off of his belt which also conceals the blade of a sheathed knife. To supplement the blaster's mid-range capabilities, Cuinn carries a pair of modified [[ELG-3A]] blasters for closer engagements, one strapped to his left thigh and the other on the rear of his belt.

===Cybernetics===
: "''He is a Borg who died last night. You know the term, I'm sure. Half human…half mechanical droid. Yet the man half of him had a soul, or so my faith believes.''"
Due to his extensive cybernetic implants, he could easily be classified as more cyborg than anything else. Unusually, the majority of these cybernetics are not enhancements but replacements for the physical damage received from events in Cuinn's past. The dermis and epidermis of his chest have been permanently supplanted with synthskin due to extensive second-degree burns and blunt impact trauma. A Lornan implant, the exact model number unknown, resides on his brain stem to regulate the electrical currents in his body while basic ear augmentations have been installed to generate a standard level of hearing. A pair of automated lungs draws oxygen in place of the discarded originals. Military-grade optical implants with customized, commercial-grade software replaced his damaged-beyond-repair eyes, though their only benefit over standard vision is a slight increase in night vision. Most of Cuinn's joints have been augmented with durasteel pins for added durability, albeit at the cost of their overall ranges of motion. The only cybernetic that could fairly be classified as an enhancement would be his custom-engineered arms. The engineering standards and design specifications are not known outside of a small, trusted circle, though public reports suggest that his arm strength and muscular endurance is much greater than it naturally should be.

===Trading Career===
: "''The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.''"
Tomas o`Cuinn is one of the most well-known and successful traders in the galaxy. His trading career began with [http://market.centrepointstation.com/details.php?lid=208519 the sale] of a [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Light_Freighters&ID=167 Nu-Class Attack Shuttle], which was gifted to him, to Leah Asalah on the 331st day of [[Year 13]] ([[CGT]]). He immediately adopted a profit-based business model and used the liquid capital from his initial sale to jump-start a starship trafficking business, purchasing derelict vessels for a fraction of their value and restoring them for profitable resale. Since then, his resale business has reportedly earned him billions of credits in net profit, though the early numbers are presumably inflated due to the widely-fluctuating market value of starships and his assignment from [[Black Sun]] to sell off [[The_Guild_Bank|The Guild Bank's]] assets in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). According to public rumor, his largest and most profitable transaction was his sale of controlling stake in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to [[Black Sun]] in exchange for their ownership of the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] and [[Homon (System)|Homon]] star systems, though no public records of trade have been discovered for this transaction. On the 217th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged his status as a reputable businessman in order to steal twenty billion credits from the [[Aurodium Legion]], likely the largest trade theft on known galactic record.

===Armor & Armament===
: "''My armor insures my victory in hand-to-hand combat.''"
Throughout most of his life, Tomas wore Mandalorian-style armour made from duraplast or durasteel. In [[Year 26]], he was able to acquire an ancient set of beskar armor
Though heavily outfitted, Cuinn believes in the value of allies and, as such, has cultivated a highly cohesive unit of veteran [[Abyssin]] soldiers, twelve-strong, that work closely with him on various missions. His personal [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Military&ID=7 Droideka], nicknamed Ver'gebuir, is his constant companion and bodyguard regardless of location. Due to his age, Tomas' physical dexterity and speed have declined and, as a result, has come to rely on his allies, heavy armour, and cunning to make up the difference.

===A Matter of Race (Metamorphosis Plague)===
: "''Well let's have a look at you. Hmm. Biped. More or less symmetrical. Far less hair than the last one. Opposable digits. Mostly water hey?''"
It is unknown whether Cuinn was personally affected when the [[Metamorphosis Plague]] raged across the galaxy in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). However, numerous reports from routine security scans have since surfaced with varying results in regards to his DNA. These conflicting scans, all between [[Year 14]] and [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), have classified him as [[Amani]], [[Anx]], [[Anzati]], Chagrian, Codru-Ji, [[Diathim]], [[Gotal]], [[Kaleesh]], Kushiban, [[Mirialan]], Vurk, and [[Whiphid]]. While his physical appearance is obviously that of a [[Human]] male, Tomas has said simply that he was injected with an experimental DNA scrambler while working as an operative for [[Black Sun|Black Watch]], the purpose of which was to mask his identity from enemy detection and prevent collection and/or manipulation of his DNA. While this claim isn't likely to be proven anytime soon, there are a number of rumors in circulation about Cuinn's actual race, the most interesting of which suggests that he is actually [[Clawdite]]. He has dismissed these rumors as silliness, publicly maintaining that he is simply a true-born [[Human]] of [[Hapan]] ancestry. At any point, some passive scan data has suggested that Tomas is actually more cybernetic than flesh, prompting further theories that he no longer fits into the confines of any one race - unless that race is cyborg.

[[Tomas o`Cuinn]] (pronounced /toʊˈmɑːs oʊˈkwɪn/) is a well-known businessman, industrial specialist, and military commander. He is one of two Marshals of the [[Blue Star Dominion]], Waadas'alor of [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], Governor of the [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector, and Patriarch of Clan o`Cuinn. Tomas is best known for founding the [[Gree Trade Authority]], [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], and [[Blue Star Dominion]] between [[Year 15]] and [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). He originally gained widespread recognition for his highly-advertised trading career along with galactic notoriety for his public position with the [[Black Sun|Black Sun]] crime syndicate before being dismissed from the organization at the end of [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). He has also served as a Theater Commander and third-in-command of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and as Deputy Secretary-General of the [[Galactic Alliance]].

Per the earliest relevant records, Tomas o`Cuinn, 20 years old, served as the youngest of seventy-five [[Mandalorian]] members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' - ''[[Mando'a]]'' for "Those Who No Longer Exist" - which was formed to train the clone commandos for the [[Galactic Republic]] on the watery world of [[Kamino]] in Year 35 ([[BCGT]]). For close to ten years, Tomas and the other members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' served as training sergeants for the elite clone commandos of the Grand Army. These battle-proven sergeants taught the ten thousand commandos in a variety of ways, including teamwork, infiltration methods, demolition techniques, assassination and much more. Along with imparting their combat prowess and tactical skills, the [[Mandalorian]] trainers also included their cultural customs and way of life, believing it important that the clones know of their heritage - especially since their genetic template was a prominent [[Mandalorian]] - despite objections from the [[Kaminoan|Kaminoans]]. When the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems]] launched attacks against the [[Galactic Republic]] in the Sumitra and Centrality sectors in Year 25 ([[BCGT]]), the previously secret clone troopers were revealed and organized into the Grand Army of the [[Galactic Republic|Republic]]; this newly organized army was immediately deployed in response to the attacks. Thus begins the Clone Wars. With their contract ended, many of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' departed [[Kamino]] and returned to their former lives, though a few remained to train future generations of clones; Tomas was among those who left.

Despite having fulfilled the decade-long training mission, Tomas was far too duty-oriented to take any sort of vacation and, as such, soon accepted a contract on an obscure [[Outer Rim]] [[planet|world]]; the job consisted of a physical security consultation for the relatively unimportant planet's government. A hideout had been recently established in the natural caves of the planet's mountains and had already proved to be a threat as the enforcers of the newly-arrived criminal organization, known as -'''REDACTED'''-, began raiding the lightly-defended towns. The planet's militia was poorly trained and equipped - a far cry from the force required to ensure security and drive the unwanted raiders off of the planet. When the criminal enforcers began to invade and seize control of entire towns, the government sought aid from the [[Galactic Republic]], but, as a non-member, their pleas were all but ignored - largely due to the start of the Clone Wars. When the government, with nowhere else to turn, began offering contracts to mercenaries for their assistance, Tomas o`Cuinn answered the call.

Realizing that a simple consultation was far from sufficient, Tomas renegotiated the contract and set to training the militiamen in combat techniques that would prove effective when harassing a larger and better-equipped force. Over the course of almost a year, the militia learned to operate as small squads capable of rapid movement, using the terrain and darkness of night to engage in unconventional warfare against the overconfident force of organized raiders who, through their shared combat experience and uniquely strict leadership hierarchy, acted almost the same as a conventional army. To demonstrate that their hostile actions would no longer be tolerated and that the militia was capable of hurting them, Tomas instructed them in irregular and psychological warfare such as guerrilla tactics and booby traps. Taught to gather intelligence prior to any operation, the militiamen would strike rapidly at the enemy forces and disappear just as quickly, injuring or killing and sowing confusion among the criminal ranks. Coupling this with strategically-placed booby traps proved effective in decreasing morale and introducing fear into the gang's soldiers, limiting their combat capacity and ending their aggressive advances against the planet's towns.

As Year 23 ([[BCGT]]) rolled around, the criminal force's advance had been effectively stopped, and Tomas switched strategy and worked to turn the militia - now swelling with experience and confidence earned from success - into a highly disciplined and effective military force. Just as the new training regime was beginning, however, -'''REDACTED'''- quietly brought in its heavy hitters along with reinforcements to deal with the planet's unexpected resistance to subjugation. A surprise orbital bombardment on the militia's "hidden" training base caught the unsuspecting Tomas off guard, bringing the entire compound down around him and his trainees. Tomas, mortally-wounded from the structure collapsing on him, was recovered by -'''REDACTED'''- enforcers. With the knowledge that he had been the source of their troubles on the planet, local -'''REDACTED'''- leadership made the decision to keep Tomas alive - only long enough to suffer for his insolence. To this end, his shattered arms were amputated and replaced with basic cybernetic limbs, though they were useless for all but the most basic of tasks. A Lornan implant was installed into his brain to regulate his body's electrical current since it was now incapable of doing such naturally. A cheap ear implant was installed to recover his diminished hearing - they figured he should have to suffer his own screams. His lungs, damaged beyond repair by the chemical asphyxiation and smoke inhalation caused by the bombardment, were removed and replaced with a cybernetic pair. His damaged eyes and other injuries, however, weren't deemed as life-threatening.

After the string of surgeries and a brief stint in a bacta tank, Tomas was deemed fit to undergo an extensive program of systematic torture, attacking a specific area of the body at a time over the course of several months - always fixed up overnight in a bacta tank for the fresh treatment of pain the following day. This regulated torture lasted for two years, until -'''REDACTED'''- leadership decided the expense was no longer worth the continued punishment and opted to turn Cuinn into a trophy, displayed publicly to serve as a visible reminder of what happened to those who crossed them. The most effective process turned out to be carbon-freezing, with the design-intended tibanna gas being replaced with a [[Mandalorian]] named Tomas. He would hang on display for three decades, in the carbon-induced state of suspended animation, until the normal turnover of leadership resulted in his transgressions being forgotten and the outdated carbonite figure being removed and discarded. Due to his already-diminished physical condition, such as his almost non-existent eyesight, the standard effects of long-term suspended animation were barely noticeable, though what damage did occur was minimized by his cybernetic "enhancements" and eventually healed with an impressive amount of bacta when he was finally thawed from his carbonite imprisonment.

==Family. Honour. Profit.==
: "''It is a vast criminal syndicate...its influence felt on every planet from the Core Worlds to the Outer Rim. Black Sun has existed for hundreds of years and embedded itself in the very fiber of the galaxy. The resources at its disposal are almost limitless. The soldiers under its command number in the tens of thousands. The ignorant even call it the most powerful force in the known universe.''"
While it is not public knowledge what happened after his carbonite frame was discarded, Cuinn eventually emerged as an officer for the [[Black Sun]] crime syndicate. While his history with the syndicate was shrouded in secrecy, many of the details have been released since his expulsion from the organization in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). Originally recruited as a small-time enforcer, Tomas quickly worked his way up the ranks by producing results through sheer dedication and a hands-on work style. Most of his earned salary went towards improving his cybernetics, gradually returning the range of physical capabilities he'd enjoyed decades before. Of his career in [[Black Sun]], what is known is that he is a veteran of both the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, constructing homes and jobs for more than one hundred and fifty-five billion civilians and creating over one billion credits in additional monthly revenue for the syndicate. He also fought against the [[United_Rebel_Front|United Rebel Front]] during the Battle of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=5923 Axxila], securing complete control of the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=203 Ciutric Sector]. He also served as the Chief Operating Officer of the (now defunct) [[Hyrotii Corporation]] for some time, providing assistance to his good friend [[Rexan Vyrim]] during a period of increased raw material requirements. Cuinn personally re-wrote the [[Black Sun]] [http://holocron.swcombine.com/wiki/Black_Sun#Code_of_Conduct Code of Conduct], expanding its coverage and refining the format for an increased understanding, along with designing the entire training program that turned inexperienced recruits into knowledgeable and efficient members. He served as the middle ground between the Family Council and junior members, handling various personnel issues and relaying council orders throughout the chain of command. Near the end of his career with the syndicate, Cuinn was the highest-ranking officer and headed up the ("Indoctrination") Recruitment and Training division, while also working as an intelligence officer and senior member of [[Black Sun|Black Watch]].

Shortly after the [[Black Sun]] takeover of [[Xanxus Drol|Xanxus Drol’s]] company, [[The Guild Bank]], in early-to-mid [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]), Cuinn publicly sold off hundreds of the seized assets for vastly reduced prices compared to the market standard at the time. Cuinn's sales, even at reduced pricing, resulted in a net profit of almost two billion galactic credits for [[Black Sun]]. He was rewarded with a portion of the profits and an extra promotion for his role in the affair along with quickly accomplishing the massive amount of additional work without issue. The overwhelming number of sales and unusually low pricing also helped to build his public presence in the trading community.

His proven loyalty and dedicated work ethic were rewarded numerous times by both Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]] and Dark Princess [[Cait Catra]]. Despite a career demanding nothing short of respect, one of [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander von Ismay’s]] initial moves as the Dark Prince usurper was to force Cuinn out of the syndicate on the 354th day of [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander]] followed this by blacklisting and declaring Cuinn an enemy of [[Black Sun]] on the first day of [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]).

==The Opportunity of Gree==
: "''I know you're familiar with the ancient Rakata Infinite Empire. The Gree predate them by eons.''"
Tomas settled in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, accepting a position with the local Gree Enclave government as a security consultant to update the system's defenses from years of neglect. He immediately set himself to designing and overseeing construction on a series of shield networks and anti-orbital weapon platforms on each of the system's planets whilst simultaneously ordering the fabrication of new defensive and early warning space stations along the system's outer perimeter. His efforts eventually led to the founding of the [[Gree Trade Authority]], a multi-billion credit trade and security company that focused on furthering the system's development. He switched his focus toward rebuilding the infrastructure that was suppressed during [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lengthy occupation. Using his knowledge from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, he tasked the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority]] with construction infrastructure on [[Gree IV]], promoting increased immigration, tourism, and intersystem commerce.<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39174 Creating Jobs, Building Lives: Gree Trade Authority Sets Economic Records (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 16 Day 226)]</ref>.

[[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] formed numerous naval fleets to defend the system and ensure the safety of all citizens and visitors; chief among these was the impressive [[Aliit Dael'mor|Dael'mor]] fleet to help deter future attacks, formed around the former [[Black Sun]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial-class]] and [[Victory Star Destroyer|Victory-class]] [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]]. Supporting these fleets was a multi-tiered ring of defensive space stations of varying designs, including the Ataturk-class and Golan models I & II, placed in strategic locations throughout [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Placed along the outer edges of the system, a ring of XQ1-series platforms served as customs checkpoints, an advanced warning system, and the initial line of defense against pirates or other would-be invaders. Each of the platforms was supported by a [[Corona-class frigate|''Corona''-class frigate]] and sheltered two starfighter squadrons - one comprised of [[Y-wing]]s and the other of [[R-41 Starchasers|R-41 starchasers]] - for defense. An [[Imperial]] fleet arrived unexpectedly in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system in mid-[[Year 16]] ([[CGT]]), prompting the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to lock down planetary accesses and deploy its fleets in a defensive perimeter around the planets. The [[Galactic Empire]] had dispatched two [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyers]], three [[Victory Star Destroyer I|Victory I-class Star Destroyers]], and one [[Carrack/S-class Light Cruiser|Carrack/S-class light cruiser]] to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system at the behest and begging of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] Dark Prince, [[Alexander von Ismay]], due to his inability to muster their own [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] for such a show of force. While the [[Imperial]] fleet was certainly impressive, the Golan stations and [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] naval fleets would have been more than enough of a match to defend the system. However, the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] ships maintained a safe distance from [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] perimeter and simply flew reconnaissance sorties with a handful of [[TIE/sr Starfighter|TIE scouts]] whilst an [[Imperial]] Director sent casual threats to Tomas regarding [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] seized [[Star Destroyers]]. Eventually, the Imperial fleet departed, but this event spurred the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to open formal diplomatic relations with the [[New Republic]] and [[Galactic Alliance]]. Tomas knew that the Imperials would return in the future, and in greater number.

After former Underlord [[Alexander von Ismay]] was kicked out of [[Black Sun]] for petty theft and attempted blackmail, Tomas reached out to the new Dark Prince, [[Jeor Knight]], and the Family Council in an effort to quell the hostilities created by [[Alexander von Ismay|Ismay]] years before. Negotiations between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and [[Black Sun]] resulted in improved relations between the groups, as Tomas personally saw to the release of approximately one billion credits worth of [[Black Sun]]-owned vehicles that had been confiscated by [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]]. Dozens of crates containing various equipment owned by the syndicate were also released to a [[Black Sun]] pilot. Forty-two highly-trained operatives in the employ of Vigo and former Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]], and their rare and expensive equipment, were released from custody after years of imprisonment. [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] also publicly supported [[Black Sun]] in the Galactic News System<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39984 Black Sun - A Modern History Lesson (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 17 Day 167)]</ref> when the [[ViskCor News Network]] posted propaganda against the syndicate<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39979 Black Sun's Future in Imperial Union Uncertain (Hacked by Rayus Kestyn on Year 17 Day 166)]</ref>.

Early in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged a [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] employment opportunity to lure the notorious Varro Belle to [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Belle was the inside man in a [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] operation that allowed the capture of over a dozen [[Krath Dynasty]] officers, the impounding of a reported twenty-five hundred restricted starfighters, and the seizure of between twelve and thirty thousand crates of various equipment. Belle personally detained [[Lazarus Kell]], the current Emperor of [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]], during the operation's climax, and stole [[Lazarus Kell|Kell's]] prized lightsaber. The [[Krath Dynasty]] reported their losses two days later, on [[Year 17|17.262]] ([[CGT]])<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40212 Traitors strike from within the Krath (Posted by Ellias Aubec on Year 17 Day 262)]</ref>, and subsequently offered a five hundred million credit reward for his capture. Due to the [[Galactic Alliance]] and [[Krath Dynasty]] desperately wanting to see Varro Belle in cuffs, Tomas offered the criminal employment in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] star system, working construction for the [[Gree Trade Authority]]. Since Belle was a highly wanted criminal, he was desperate in seeking neutral employment in the mostly lawless [[Outer Rim Territories]] - but, as he soon learned, [[Gree (System)|Gree]] does not conform to the loose standards of law enforcement common throughout the region. After a few weeks of building trust, along with directly profiting from his labor, Tomas led a team of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] most experienced soldiers and detained Belle in orbit of the [[Gree IV]] gas giant. While Belle chose to fight back against his arrest, he was quickly overpowered by the cybernetic [[Mandalorian]] supported by an elite squad of [[Abyssin]] troops. A press release was provided to the galaxy on [[Year 18|18.53]] ([[CGT]]), less than twelve hours after his capture<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40566 Gree Press Release: Belles Are Ringing (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 18 Day 53)]</ref>. [[Lazarus Kell]], who had secured his release from [[Imperial Union]] custody and ascended the [[Krath Dynasty]] throne as Emperor, was eager to see Belle extradited from [[Gree (System)|Gree]] to [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]] to answer for his crimes. It was [[Krath Dynasty|Krath's]] Lord Imperator [[Talak Kasra]] that discussed the extradition with [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and, upon the successful negotiation, traveled to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to retrieve the prisoner. After the ordeal was finished, Tomas was overheard as stating that Belle's labor was estimated to have increased the [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree Trade Authority's]] gross monthly income by an approximate ten million credits.

From when the [[Gree Trade Authority]] was founded near the midpoint of [[Year 15]] to early [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree IV]] gas giant was the major investment and development project that consumed the majority of Tomas's time and attention. Under [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] leadership, the [[planet]] had simply served as a mining platform for tibanna gas; under the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority's]] management, however, the mining operations were greatly expanded with an emphasis on worker safety, mining process improvements, and employee morale. With an extensive investment campaign into the equipment and training for every mine worker, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was able to greatly increase the mining operation's size and, with its own investments and the increasing mine profits, extensively develop the system of interlinked platform cities across the gas giant's atmosphere. [[Gree IV]] housed barely one million citizens in [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]), but by [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), more than ten billion individuals would call the gas giant their home - an increase of ten thousand percent. The planet's economy grew with its population and become one of the largest, healthiest, and safest centers for trade and commerce in the [[Outer Rim]]. The success and development of [[Gree IV]] also led to the [[Gree Trade Authority]] being recognized by the [[galaxy]] as the governing entity of the entire [[Gree (Sector)|Gree]] sector, surpassing and replacing the [[Black Sun]] criminal syndicate.

==Command in the Resistance==
: "''So you're with the Resistance?''"
: "''Obviously. Yes I am. I'm with the Resistance, yeah. I am with the Resistance.''"
: "''I've never met a Resistance fighter before.''"
: "''Well this is what we look like, some of us. Others look different.''"
Knowing [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] precarious stance in the heart of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] territory, Tomas had worked in secret to support and ally his conglomerate with the [[New Republic]]. By [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree Trade Authority]] (and it's short-lived successor, the [[Gree Enclave]]) had signed a non-aggression pact with [[The Krath|the Krath]] and an alliance with the [[New Republic]], along with a technology agreement granting tier one access to the latter's technology. Despite this, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was acutely aware of how little a few powerful warships would matter if the [[Galactic Empire]] sent another fleet to their system. Tomas reached out to an old friend, [[The Resistance|Resistance]] Commander and former Deputy Director of [[New Republic|New Republic Intelligence]] Cedron Tryonel, and negotiations began regarding a merger between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and the [[The Resistance|Resistance]]. The result of these talks was the effective closure of the entire [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] conglomerate, with its membership and assets being absorbed into either [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] or the [[The Resistance|Resistance's]] operations.

Knowing that he suddenly had to worry about the entire [[Imperial Union]] along with operating on a galactic scale instead of simply in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, Tomas opened negotiations with Dark Prince [[Jeor Knight]] and Vigo [[Banquo Knox]] of [[Black Sun]] regarding their interest in re-obtaining [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. While negotiations were unforgiving, eventually a deal was struck to exchange Tomas's holdings in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system for [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] control over the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. The 11 billion inhabitants of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] were once again under the control of the crime syndicate, but their return to suffering was not for nothing as the approximate 165 billion civilians in the liberated sectors were suddenly freed from [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] grasp. While Tomas regretted [[Gree (System)|Gree's]] sacrifice, he knew that the liberation of two sectors was an acceptable price to pay. On top of this, galactic analysts quickly estimated [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lost revenue in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors as approximately 2.916 billion credits per year and expected the financial experts of the former [[Gree Trade Authority]] to quickly capitalize on establishing control of the businesses and income streams. Ultimately, Tomas sacrificed the four planets of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] in exchange for eight worlds - his deal cost only a single system and had taken two sectors away from the [[Imperial Union]], removing one of their strongholds in the galactic southeast. The [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector bordered space controlled by the [[New Republic]], [[The Krath|Krath]], and [[The eXiles]] - Tomas's removal of [[Black Sun]] from the sector solved a major security issue for the three [[Galactic Alliance]] groups.

After joining the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on the 85th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas spearheaded a reorganization that created several theaters of operation throughout the galaxy, each overseen by a commander who was tasked with developing and organizing their own staff and sector. Tomas was granted the rank of Theater Commander and command of the Deep Core and Morshdine Theaters, along with the third-in-command position of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and one of their three seats on the [[Galactic Alliance]] Leadership Council. Much of Tomas's work within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] has been withheld from the galactic public, though it is known that he was involved in Operation Unknown Signals, a joint task force between the [[New Republic]], [[The Resistance|Resistance]], and [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]) to respond to several distress calls originating from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=211 Tynna] [[sector]]. The task force flawlessly coordinated a [[sector]]-wide search in an effort to locate the frigates broadcasting their distress and, discovering them consecutively, rapidly dispatched dozens of hostile pirate groups at each of their locations. In the end, the joint operation was able to locate and rescue three of the four troubled [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates while the fourth was seized by the [[The Exchange|Exchange]]. Tomas was credited with just ten bandit kills, though he publicly attributed this to having only a half squadron of [[RZ-1 A-wing interceptor|A-wings]] and having spent the majority of his time flying reconnaissance before and during the combat engagements. As a reward for their aid, the Tynnani Defense Force awarded three [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates to three members of the [[New Republic]] for their individual performance, and two of the three voluntarily transferred their ships to the [[New Republic]]. One frigate was retained by the [[New Republic]] while the second was awarded to the [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] for their efforts; the third, intended for the [[The Resistance|Resistance]], was greedily kept by [[Lahasa Fy]] despite numerous offers of compensation. Tomas took issue with [[Lahasa Fy|Lahasa's]] actions, who had utilized task force intelligence, [[New Republic]] starfighters, and fought alongside pilots from all three groups, yet felt no apparent need to share in his reward; [[Lahasa Fy|Fy]] left the [[New Republic]] not long after.

Eventually, Tomas grew disillusioned with the state of the [[Galactic Alliance]], even after he was appointed to the position of Deputy Secretary-General. The distrust and lack of cooperation between the alliance's member states was a substantial issue in the fight against the [[Imperial Union]], which he had been a member of during his time in [[Black Sun]]. He began harboring resentment towards several member groups for their lack of contribution and activity within the alliance, and two of them had even spoken out strongly against him in his early appointment to the Leadership Council. Unwilling to put his energy into any sort of reform, and knowing it would likely fail due to certain inflexible leaders who predated his time in the alliance by more than a decade, Tomas ultimately decided that his future lay in another direction and resigned his posts both within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and [[Galactic Alliance]] near the end of [[Year 18]]. He had spent just less than a standard year in the positions combined, but felt that he had learned all that he needed to in order to realize that the [[Galactic Alliance|Galactic Alliance's]] fight against [[Imperial]] tyranny was doomed without serious change. After eight months as their third-in-command, Tomas departed the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on good terms on the 325th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]).

==Focusing on the Clan==
: "''I came to tell you that your people can expect to be busy in the next few months. A war is coming.''"
: "''You must be new in this galaxy. There's always a war going on somewhere, always has been, always will be. It's why Mandalorians have never gone out of business.''"
After his departure from the [[Galactic Alliance]], Tomas felt content that he could focus solely on himself and his [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian clan]], [[Dael'mor]], including the clan's holdings in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector. Chief among the required work was the removal of an alarming number of empty skyscrapers and barracks in [[Homon (System)|Homon]], abandoned when [[Black Sun]] had pulled out of the system, which Tomas contracted to [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul Khrog's]] [[Kerdos Company]] for two hundred and thirty million credits. After his project was completed, however, [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul]] disappeared from the [[galaxy]] under mysterious circumstances and the [[Kerdos Company]] suddenly under new management. No evidence has tied Tomas to the disappearance of the ex-[[Morgukai]], though plenty of rumors circulated in the following months. To further develop both of the sectors, Kez Aak's [[Endless Endeavors]] was contracted in a job estimated to be worth over five hundred million credits. Tomas also bankrolled the [[Amitus Corporation]] and acted as their Chief Financial Officer, but departed their organization after only three weeks due to unpublicized reasons.

</table></center>

On the 37th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas visited his closest ally aboard the '''[[Secutor]]''', [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer I|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] and flagship, where he was presented with a gift: a lightsaber with a green blade. Having sought to purchase a lightsaber throughout the galaxy for several years, even negotiating to pay up to five hundred million credits at one point in time, he was ecstatic with the gift given to him by [[Cait Catra]]. The lightsaber formerly belonged to Mladen Phantom, a Dark Jedi that [[Cait Catra|Catra]] had defeated several years prior, and kept as a trophy until it was gifted to Tomas. Although he was not afflicted with the [[force]], Tomas was already an avid swordsman and quickly adapted his melee combat skills to accommodate the lightsaber's unique requirements, such as all of the weight being in the hilt. He began training in Form V with a Djem So specialty, focusing on lightsaber dueling despite the obvious disadvantage he'd have against a force user. Djem So also played into the strength of his cybernetic arms, since the form relies on brute force to overpower an opponent's defense. Despite the avid attempts to train with his lightsaber, Tomas' lack of force sensitivity prevented him from achieving anything more than a basic level of dueling skill likely equivalent to that of a Padawan. Later in the year, Tomas struck a deal with his closest allies that net him a new flagship - the clan's [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] - in exchange for his controlling interests in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector, minus the ecumenopolis Woldona VII.

It was revealed near the beginning of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]) that Tomas had managed to produce more than eight hundred of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] proprietary [[Viper|Viper-class starfighters]] over a ten-month period through their negligence over access to the engineering specifications. The syndicate had failed to remove the blueprints from the shipyards in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system, though an unavoidable backdoor into the shared database system of the shipyards allowed the syndicate to remotely corrupt the engineering data after they realized their mistake. It proved far too late, however, as their error had allowed Tomas to produce more than four billion credits worth of [[Viper|Vipers]], valued on the market at five million credits each at the time of production. The market price for a single [[Viper|Viper-class starfighter]] dropped by fifty percent to two and a half million credits by the midpoint of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), however, after a large secondary supply flooded the market and [[Black Sun]] itself began to sell the fighters, likely in an attempt to both cash in on the demand due to their financial troubles and to create the appearance that the further release of their proprietary technology had barely affected the syndicate.

After the [[War for the Hosnian System]] began on the 195th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas quickly dropped his tasks in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system and set course for [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] in his [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wing interceptor]]. Despite the cramped, two-day trip, he arrived on the 198th day and immediately set to claiming land rights for future sale, securing legal ownership of five grids on [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=6243 Hosnian Prime] at the cost of eighteen million and six hundred thousand credits. He quickly sold the land rights to the [[New Republic]] for one hundred and seventy-five million credits, netting him a quick and tidy profit of just over one hundred and fifty-six million credits, immediately ensuring that the trip would be profitable. Afterward, the tremendous number of individuals and organizations flooding into the system in their own attempts to profit seemed to affect Tomas in a strange way. It was almost as if he could sense the growing number of people with hostile intent and it overwhelmed his senses, refusing to allow him any time to think or concentrate. He lost control of himself over the next several days but eventually snapped out of it, only to realize that he had hunted down and slaughtered more than three hundred sentients across three of the system's planets, cutting them down with his lightsaber as they had attempted to build basic infrastructure for their respective employers - the [[Galactic Empire]], [[Mecrosa]], and Veilhal Nomads. Torn with grief and regret over his actions, he departed the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system and returned to [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]], immediately seeking out a trusted physician to provide a throughout examination and explanation for his loss of control. Even after a substantial number of tests, the doctor simply concluded that one of his cybernetic implants had likely malfunctioned and triggered a psychotic episode.

Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), it somehow slipped into public knowledge that Tomas owned a hidden space station attached to an asteroid deep within [[the Maw]], an unstable and dangerous cluster of black holes located in the [[Kessel]] sector. Rumors surrounding the asteroid hideout suggest that it serves as a high-security prison for dangerous individuals from throughout the galaxy, sent and paid for by governments unable or unwilling to contain or execute the deadly parties. Paid handsomely for housing the risky prisoners, Tomas had ironically named the station ''Shelter'' and entrusted an unknown business associate with managing the prison for him.

==Establishing Sevetta==
Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), the remnants of the [[Gree Trade Authority]] banded together to re-emerge as the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], a collection of companies operating out of the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. Mirroring the former organization of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]], Tomas was appointed as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the conglomerate while each company's leaders became vice presidents and department heads in the overarching organization. [[DefenStar Ltd.]] was established as the flagship company for the conglomerate on [[Year 19|19.323]], [[Golan Arms]] opened on [[Year 19|19.343]], [[LodeCorp Mining]] re-opened on [[Year 20|20.002]], and [[Golan Construction]] was acquired and the [[Zaltin Corporation]] incorporated both on [[Year 20|20.160]] ([[CGT]])

When much of [[Helen Hawk|Helen Hawk's]] holdings were publicly auctioned off in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]) following her apprehension by the [[New Republic]], Tomas leveraged the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] substantial financial power to scoop up an [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter]], an [[MC-60 Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80a Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80b Star Cruiser]], and a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] for an undisclosed number of credits. The [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter|V-wing]] was sold to [[Sirius Cyan]] for five hundred million credits, while the [[MC-60 Star Cruiser|MC-60]] was traded to Robby Rae for a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] and a squadron of [[A/SF-01 B-wing Starfighter|B-wings]]; the destroyer was subsequently resold to Jimmy Roggeman for one and a half billion credits while the B-wings were individually sold to [[Drax Whittler]], Lazarus Grimm, [[Diabolus`ut Persolvo]], and [[Lorenzas Atticus]] for a combined two and three quarter billion credits. The [[MC-80a Star Cruiser|MC-80a]] was sold to [[Lilith Delcroix]] for five billion credits while the [[MC-80b Star Cruiser|MC-80b]] was sold to Esu Kyouto for eight billion credits. The final [[Sabaoth Destroyer]], however, was purchased primarily for the almost six billion credits worth of droids stored aboard which Tomas intended to sell at the next [[Jawa Swap Meet]] in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]). Even with reduced sales pricing of droids due to the increase of supply outweighing market demand, Tomas earned the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] four and a half billion credits of pure net profit from the business venture.

==The Mando'ade==
Although the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] monthly cash flow and net profits year-to-date were both in the billions of credits, Tomas grew disillusioned with running the conglomerate - just as he had with the [[Gree Trade Authority]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]). When he was approached by Mand'alor [[Kai Oryk]] about the formation of a new [[Mandalorian]] government near the mid-point of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas realized that his desire to return to the roots of his culture far outweighed the continued business success he had been pursuing for the past decade. He quietly set to disbanding the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and bringing [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], now under the leadership of his nephew [[Victor o`Cuinn]], under the banner of [[Mando'ade]]. [[DefenStar Ltd.]], [[Golan Construction]], and [[LodeCorp Mining]] were closed, while the [[Zaltin Corporation]] became a nationalized faction of [[Mando'ade]]; [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] assumed ownership and operation of [[Golan Arms]]. The [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] effectively shut its doors on [[Year 20|20.206]] ([[CGT]]) and [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] joined up [[Mando'ade]], with Tomas being granted the rank of Ko'verd and a position on the leadership council.

Tomas withdrew from the public eye and focused on his work within both [[Mando'ade]] and [[Dael'mor]]. Following the defection of [[CorSec]] to The Cooperative in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas purchased critical infrastructure on the world of [https://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=2843 Columus] from Jeff Kronn for a small fortune. In the confusion and aftermath of [[CorSec|CorSec's]] officers betraying their [[Galactic Empire]] masters, Tomas as able to secure the local population's loyalty and immediately sought to sell his holdings and influence for a profit. Soon after, Urkh Malal purchased Tomas' investment, earning the latter a reported two and a half billion credit profit in less than two months.

When the [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]] system was discovered near the end of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas established an allied coalition consisting of three different groups, which set course to the [[Western Reaches]] sector in an attempt to stake their claim. While they arrived barely in time to secure the smallest of land parcels in [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]], itself, they initiated a scouting mission within the sector due to rumors of another untouched system in the area. When they discovered the [[Takodana (System)|Takodana]] system on the 313th day of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), they quickly realize that the [[Trade Federation]] had beaten them there by approximately five days. Despite the head start and their colonization efforts underway, the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] had not yet solidified their grip over the planet and the coalition quickly moved to secure their own land rights on the planet. With the desire to prevent any bloodshed or hostilities with the [[Trade Federation]], Tomas opened negotiations with Duceroy Salamku Derov over the sale of their holdings and the cease of coalition operations on the world. A deal was struck and the coalition walked away with five hundred million credits for their troubles, having handed the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] their land and intel.

==Blue Star Dominion==
At the beginning of [[Year 21]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas decided that it was time for his people to set off on their own again. [[LodeCorp Mining]] was once again established on Day 12 to serve as a front organization for the group's activities, though it would come to grow into something much larger. After the fall of the [[New Republic]], [[LodeCorp Mining|LodeCorp]] established a mutual defense pact with the [[Rebel Alliance]] and re-confirmed its commitment against the [[Imperial Union]], later becoming a founding member of the [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] on Day 127 alongside the [[The Hyporian Commonwealth (Year 20 - Year 21)|Hyporian Commonwealth]], [[Mando'ade]], the [[Rebel Alliance]], and Stryker Military Services. The [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] was a regional defense treaty signed during the War for the Republic to defend the Galactic Southeast from an anticipated [[Imperial Union]] offensive. Despite the concern, [[Imperial Union]] activity was limited to the sectors of the former [[New Republic]] and territory sympathetic to the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] in the northern portions of the [[Outer Rim]].

On the 210th day, the [[Order of the One Sith]] became fractured upon the betrayal of [[Morgan Sathel]] and [[Kaze Zill]], who then turned on each other. [[Kaze Zill|Kaze]] was able to seize control of the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] world of [[Venaari]], which Tomas foresaw an opportunity with and purchased for three billion credits. A depot station orbiting the world was purchased from [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for a hundred and fifty million credits, while operatives were dispatched to bypass and disable the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] leader [[Darin Byrch|Darin Byrch's]] planetary shield network. While the operatives were en route, however, [[Darin Byrch|Darin]] agreed to exchange the shield network for one and a half billion credits - granting Tomas complete control. He was able to negotiate the resale of [[Venaari]] back to [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for eight billion credits, netting Tomas more than three billion credits in profit.

The desire to expand led to the establishment of the [[Blue Star Dominion]] as a sovereign government of the [[Sevetta]] sector and [[Dagu (System)|Dagu]] system on the 21st day of [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). On Day 80, Dominion Command was established to oversee operations and consisted of Cedron Tryonel, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn|Taranjeek o`Cuinn]], and Tomas o`Cuinn.

The [[Blue Star Dominion]] participated in the [[Tolonda Conflict]] led by the [[Jedi Order]] and took part in both the [[Jedi Order|Jedi's]] Operation ROID RAGE and its own Operation Appropriation. Operation Appropriation was the codename for a covert military action conducted by the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion's]] naval and marine forces to seize and destroy numerous ships owned by the [[Sith Imperium]]. With the majority of the Imperium's forces scrambling in response to their late discovery of the [[Jedi Order|Jedi Order's]] Operation ROID RAGE, Dominion Marshal Tomas o`Cuinn quietly outlined a plan with Sith Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau]], an independent operative sympathetic to the rebel cause, to launch a clandestine assault behind enemy lines. Calculating that they had a limited window of opportunity to strike, the Dominion borrowed two local [[Modular Taskforce Cruiser|Modular Taskforce Cruisers]] from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] to bring their total in the [[Tolonda]] sector to three. Two of the cruisers were dispatched to the [[Tamra (System)|Tamra]] system under the commands of Tomas and Taranjeek o`Cuinn while the third was committed to the [[Oshora (System)|Oshora]] system under the command of [[Kaze Zill]]. Each of the warships was manned by several companies of Dominion marines and escorted to the outskirts of their respective target systems by the Dominion Navy, which broke off outside of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] sensor range in an effort to maintain the cruiser's stealth. Transmitting false IFF codes, each cruiser casually made its approach into the respective system and successfully evaded notice by the Sith. In the early hours of the morning on Day 60, Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau|Tau]] transferred the access codes of the entire [[Sith Imperium]] fleet to Dominion Command, signaling execution of the plan. With much of the Imperium's personnel occupied elsewhere, the vessels in the target areas were either manned by only skeleton crews or unmanned entirely. Dominion marines rapidly executed boarding maneuvers on hundreds of ships in the three locations, quietly subduing the confused and quickly overwhelmed crews before they could raise any alarm and captured the bridges. Tractor beams from the cruisers swiftly moved the occupied vessels into their docking bays while others were flown and docked manually. The Dominion successfully seized over three hundred of the Sith Imperium's ships before the transfer of access codes was noticed and a remote reset command was sent to the fleet, prompting a hasty exit from the system for the cruisers amid the confusion and leaving behind a chaotic embarrassment for the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] to wake up to. At least two [[BFF-1 Bulk Freighter|BFF-1 bulk freighters]] were destroyed during the operation, reportedly at the hands of their own crew. An unconfirmed report from across the galaxy in the Ottega system alleged that, at the same time as the Dominion operation, an [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] [[Mammoth-class Heavy Hauler|Mammoth-class heavy hauler]] was mysteriously destroyed by what local authorities described as a remote slicing attack that exploited its fuel line. Analysts throughout the galaxy have since estimated that the Imperium lost a quarter of their entire naval fleet. Many of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] lost vessels were later used as target practice and subsequently destroyed by a Rebel task force deployed to the Petabys Conflict Zone during an unrelated operation.

After the [[Galactic Empire|Galactic Empire's]] triumph over the [[New Republic]] in [[Year 21]], months of subsequent conflict and territorial changes left thousands of outposts abandoned throughout the [[Outer Rim]]. One of these vacated bases, known as Stardew Station, was marked as an unimportant observatory at the edge of the galaxy in low-level [[New Republic]] files, yet no coordinates were included. As the combat being waged between the [[Imperial Union]] and Rebels dragged on, forces from both sides haphazardly uncovered fragments of intelligence that were carelessly secured and sloppily transmitted. The Information Operations Network (ION), a Rebel-developed intelligence tool, frequently intercepted slivers of the relayed data in an attempt to piece together the information as if it were a puzzle. It was through ION that Stardew Station was first flagged as a location of interest in [[Year 22]] due to the unusual personnel assignments prior to the outpost's desertion; the research scientists attached to the station specialized in interstellar navigation, advanced weapons development, metallurgy engineering, and progressive propulsion technologies. After the location of interested was flagged, it became easier for ION to rapidly process future incoming data relevant to that location and, after a few weeks longer, coordinates for Stardew were ascertained - the [[Pelgrin]] sector. A report was automatically generated for review by an analyst, who examined the data and determined that Stardew was worth exploring. A joint task force was formed between two nearby Rebel groups, the [[Blue Star Dominion]] and Stryker Military Services, and dispatched to investigate Stardew Station. Warden [[Kaze Zill]] was deployed to lead a detachment of Dominion Ghosts as the task force's ground unit, while Stryker's Mika Noris commanded a squadron of elite pilots to provide both naval superiority and transportation. Upon arrival at Stardew's coordinates, the task force fell under immediate attack by a coalition of pirate organizations intent on plundering the station's secrets. While his squadron engaged the pirate vessels, Noris skillfully hacked into the station's control systems, disabling the automated defenses and securing the Ghosts an opening to insert into Stardew. The Ghosts advanced through the station, combating the pirate crew who proved limited challenge for the force users and their disciplined troops. Unsupported by the station's defenses that Noris previously disabled, the pirate armada realized heavy casualties to the superior Stryker pilots. Losing contact with their forces inside as the Dominion secured the station, the pirate remnants disengaged and withdrew from Stardew. Stardew Station played host to a classified research and development program for the [[New Republic]]. The scientist's mission was to develop an advanced attack corvette capable of serving as a fleet escort picket ship and long-range patrol craft, along with countering the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] formidable DP-20c gunship. While most of the technological research had been completed and verified, the design team had not yet engineered the actual vessel. As the remnants of the [[New Republic]] were still reforming into the [[Rebel Alliance]] elsewhere in the galaxy, it was determined that completing the development of this ship was best suited to the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] and Stryker. Assisted by ION, research teams led by the Dominion's Marshal Cedron Tryonel and Stryker's Jaria Feri partnered to develop the [[MC-30b Corvette]]. Working prototypes were assembled soon after completion of the design and the vessel was quickly put into service.

Upon investigating distress calls on Day 331 of [[Year 22]], the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] discovered the lost system of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] in their capital sector of [[Sevetta]]. Rapidly perceiving that the sole planet was home to heavily-entrenched criminal cartels, Dominion Command called upon their allies for assistance in emancipating the oppressed population of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] spearheaded Operation Kowak, publicly known as the [[Battle for Kowak]], and led a large Rebel coalition to successfully liberate [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] from the criminal warlords and protect the system from potential opportunists. The coalition consisted of [[The Antarian Rangers]], [[-ARK-]], [[DOM Arsenal]], [[The Exchange]], [[Grand Duchy of Froz]], [[The Invid Order]], [[Jedi Order]], [[Mando'ade]], [[Rebel_Alliance_(Year_21)|Rebel Alliance]], [[The Resistance]], [[Rogue Squadron]], [[Stryker Military Services]], [[Ternion Corps]], and [[TIEFE]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] issued a public travel advisory on Day 332<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46276 Kowak System Travel Restriction (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 332)]</ref>, claiming control of the system and promising military action against potential invaders. Throughout the operation, the Rebel coalition continuously shipped in infantry battalions, thousands of starfighters, dozens of corvettes, and powerful capital warships such [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] and Mon Calamari Star Cruisers. [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] was fully secured on Day 337<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46293 Dominion Liberates the Kowak System (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 339)]</ref>, leading to the scaling down of the coalition's operations during the following weeks.

=Supplemental Information=
===Description===
: "''I'm just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe.''"
Tomas is a [[Hapan]] [[Category:Males|male]] of standard build standing 1.8 meters in height, rather unimposing and disarming in appearance. Despite being born in Year 55 ([[BCGT]]) and being more than seventy years old, his physical body is approximately three decades younger due to the years spent in suspended animation. Prior to skin replacement, his torso had worn a half-lifetime of scars from years spent training and fighting. Very rarely will he shed the protection of his custom-forged set of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=69 heavy battle armour] and [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=70 helmet]. A [[DLT-20a]] blaster rifle hangs on his back, held by a sling around his torso, while a pair of lightsabers hang off of his belt which also conceals the blade of a sheathed knife. To supplement the blaster's mid-range capabilities, Cuinn carries a pair of modified [[ELG-3A]] blasters for closer engagements, one strapped to his left thigh and the other on the rear of his belt.

===Cybernetics===
: "''He is a Borg who died last night. You know the term, I'm sure. Half human…half mechanical droid. Yet the man half of him had a soul, or so my faith believes.''"
Due to his extensive cybernetic implants, he could easily be classified as more cyborg than anything else. Unusually, the majority of these cybernetics are not enhancements but replacements for the physical damage received from events in Cuinn's past. The dermis and epidermis of his chest have been permanently supplanted with synthskin due to extensive second-degree burns and blunt impact trauma. A Lornan implant, the exact model number unknown, resides on his brain stem to regulate the electrical currents in his body while basic ear augmentations have been installed to generate a standard level of hearing. A pair of automated lungs draws oxygen in place of the discarded originals. Military-grade optical implants with customized, commercial-grade software replaced his damaged-beyond-repair eyes, though their only benefit over standard vision is a slight increase in night vision. Most of Cuinn's joints have been augmented with durasteel pins for added durability, albeit at the cost of their overall ranges of motion. The only cybernetic that could fairly be classified as an enhancement would be his custom-engineered arms. The engineering standards and design specifications are not known outside of a small, trusted circle, though public reports suggest that his arm strength and muscular endurance is much greater than it naturally should be.

===Trading Career===
: "''The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.''"
Tomas o`Cuinn is one of the most well-known and successful traders in the galaxy. His trading career began with [http://market.centrepointstation.com/details.php?lid=208519 the sale] of a [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Light_Freighters&ID=167 Nu-Class Attack Shuttle], which was gifted to him, to Leah Asalah on the 331st day of [[Year 13]] ([[CGT]]). He immediately adopted a profit-based business model and used the liquid capital from his initial sale to jump-start a starship trafficking business, purchasing derelict vessels for a fraction of their value and restoring them for profitable resale. Since then, his resale business has reportedly earned him billions of credits in net profit, though the early numbers are presumably inflated due to the widely-fluctuating market value of starships and his assignment from [[Black Sun]] to sell off [[The_Guild_Bank|The Guild Bank's]] assets in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). According to public rumor, his largest and most profitable transaction was his sale of controlling stake in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to [[Black Sun]] in exchange for their ownership of the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] and [[Homon (System)|Homon]] star systems, though no public records of trade have been discovered for this transaction. On the 217th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged his status as a reputable businessman in order to steal twenty billion credits from the [[Aurodium Legion]], likely the largest trade theft on known galactic record.

===Armor & Armament===
: "''My armor insures my victory in hand-to-hand combat.''"
Throughout most of his life, Tomas wore Mandalorian-style armour made from duraplast or durasteel. In [[Year 26]], he was able to acquire an ancient set of beskar armor
Though heavily outfitted, Cuinn believes in the value of allies and, as such, has cultivated a highly cohesive unit of veteran [[Abyssin]] soldiers, twelve-strong, that work closely with him on various missions. His personal [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Military&ID=7 Droideka], nicknamed Ver'gebuir, is his constant companion and bodyguard regardless of location. Due to his age, Tomas' physical dexterity and speed have declined and, as a result, has come to rely on his allies, heavy armour, and cunning to make up the difference.

===A Matter of Race (Metamorphosis Plague)===
: "''Well let's have a look at you. Hmm. Biped. More or less symmetrical. Far less hair than the last one. Opposable digits. Mostly water hey?''"
It is unknown whether Cuinn was personally affected when the [[Metamorphosis Plague]] raged across the galaxy in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). However, numerous reports from routine security scans have since surfaced with varying results in regards to his DNA. These conflicting scans, all between [[Year 14]] and [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), have classified him as [[Amani]], [[Anx]], [[Anzati]], Chagrian, Codru-Ji, [[Diathim]], [[Gotal]], [[Kaleesh]], Kushiban, [[Mirialan]], Vurk, and [[Whiphid]]. While his physical appearance is obviously that of a [[Human]] male, Tomas has said simply that he was injected with an experimental DNA scrambler while working as an operative for [[Black Sun|Black Watch]], the purpose of which was to mask his identity from enemy detection and prevent collection and/or manipulation of his DNA. While this claim isn't likely to be proven anytime soon, there are a number of rumors in circulation about Cuinn's actual race, the most interesting of which suggests that he is actually [[Clawdite]]. He has dismissed these rumors as silliness, publicly maintaining that he is simply a true-born [[Human]] of [[Hapan]] ancestry. At any point, some passive scan data has suggested that Tomas is actually more cybernetic than flesh, prompting further theories that he no longer fits into the confines of any one race - unless that race is cyborg.

[[Tomas o`Cuinn]] (pronounced /toʊˈmɑːs oʊˈkwɪn/) is a well-known businessman, industrial specialist, and military commander. He is one of two Marshals of the [[Blue Star Dominion]], Waadas'alor of [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], Governor of the [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector, and Patriarch of Clan o`Cuinn. Tomas is best known for founding the [[Gree Trade Authority]], [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], and [[Blue Star Dominion]] between [[Year 15]] and [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). He originally gained widespread recognition for his highly-advertised trading career along with galactic notoriety for his public position with the [[Black Sun|Black Sun]] crime syndicate before being dismissed from the organization at the end of [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). He has also served as a Theater Commander and third-in-command of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and as Deputy Secretary-General of the [[Galactic Alliance]].

</table></center>
Per the earliest relevant records, Tomas o`Cuinn, 20 years old, served as the youngest of seventy-five [[Mandalorian]] members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' - ''[[Mando'a]]'' for "Those Who No Longer Exist" - which was formed to train the clone commandos for the [[Galactic Republic]] on the watery world of [[Kamino]] in Year 35 ([[BCGT]]). For close to ten years, Tomas and the other members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' served as training sergeants for the elite clone commandos of the Grand Army. These battle-proven sergeants taught the ten thousand commandos in a variety of ways, including teamwork, infiltration methods, demolition techniques, assassination and much more. Along with imparting their combat prowess and tactical skills, the [[Mandalorian]] trainers also included their cultural customs and way of life, believing it important that the clones know of their heritage - especially since their genetic template was a prominent [[Mandalorian]] - despite objections from the [[Kaminoan|Kaminoans]]. When the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems]] launched attacks against the [[Galactic Republic]] in the Sumitra and Centrality sectors in Year 25 ([[BCGT]]), the previously secret clone troopers were revealed and organized into the Grand Army of the [[Galactic Republic|Republic]]; this newly organized army was immediately deployed in response to the attacks. Thus begins the Clone Wars. With their contract ended, many of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' departed [[Kamino]] and returned to their former lives, though a few remained to train future generations of clones; Tomas was among those who left.

Despite having fulfilled the decade-long training mission, Tomas was far too duty-oriented to take any sort of vacation and, as such, soon accepted a contract on an obscure [[Outer Rim]] [[planet|world]]; the job consisted of a physical security consultation for the relatively unimportant planet's government. A hideout had been recently established in the natural caves of the planet's mountains and had already proved to be a threat as the enforcers of the newly-arrived criminal organization, known as -'''REDACTED'''-, began raiding the lightly-defended towns. The planet's militia was poorly trained and equipped - a far cry from the force required to ensure security and drive the unwanted raiders off of the planet. When the criminal enforcers began to invade and seize control of entire towns, the government sought aid from the [[Galactic Republic]], but, as a non-member, their pleas were all but ignored - largely due to the start of the Clone Wars. When the government, with nowhere else to turn, began offering contracts to mercenaries for their assistance, Tomas o`Cuinn answered the call.

Realizing that a simple consultation was far from sufficient, Tomas renegotiated the contract and set to training the militiamen in combat techniques that would prove effective when harassing a larger and better-equipped force. Over the course of almost a year, the militia learned to operate as small squads capable of rapid movement, using the terrain and darkness of night to engage in unconventional warfare against the overconfident force of organized raiders who, through their shared combat experience and uniquely strict leadership hierarchy, acted almost the same as a conventional army. To demonstrate that their hostile actions would no longer be tolerated and that the militia was capable of hurting them, Tomas instructed them in irregular and psychological warfare such as guerrilla tactics and booby traps. Taught to gather intelligence prior to any operation, the militiamen would strike rapidly at the enemy forces and disappear just as quickly, injuring or killing and sowing confusion among the criminal ranks. Coupling this with strategically-placed booby traps proved effective in decreasing morale and introducing fear into the gang's soldiers, limiting their combat capacity and ending their aggressive advances against the planet's towns.

</table></center>

As Year 23 ([[BCGT]]) rolled around, the criminal force's advance had been effectively stopped, and Tomas switched strategy and worked to turn the militia - now swelling with experience and confidence earned from success - into a highly disciplined and effective military force. Just as the new training regime was beginning, however, -'''REDACTED'''- quietly brought in its heavy hitters along with reinforcements to deal with the planet's unexpected resistance to subjugation. A surprise orbital bombardment on the militia's "hidden" training base caught the unsuspecting Tomas off guard, bringing the entire compound down around him and his trainees. Tomas, mortally-wounded from the structure collapsing on him, was recovered by -'''REDACTED'''- enforcers. With the knowledge that he had been the source of their troubles on the planet, local -'''REDACTED'''- leadership made the decision to keep Tomas alive - only long enough to suffer for his insolence. To this end, his shattered arms were amputated and replaced with basic cybernetic limbs, though they were useless for all but the most basic of tasks. A Lornan implant was installed into his brain to regulate his body's electrical current since it was now incapable of doing such naturally. A cheap ear implant was installed to recover his diminished hearing - they figured he should have to suffer his own screams. His lungs, damaged beyond repair by the chemical asphyxiation and smoke inhalation caused by the bombardment, were removed and replaced with a cybernetic pair. His damaged eyes and other injuries, however, weren't deemed as life-threatening.

After the string of surgeries and a brief stint in a bacta tank, Tomas was deemed fit to undergo an extensive program of systematic torture, attacking a specific area of the body at a time over the course of several months - always fixed up overnight in a bacta tank for the fresh treatment of pain the following day. This regulated torture lasted for two years, until -'''REDACTED'''- leadership decided the expense was no longer worth the continued punishment and opted to turn Cuinn into a trophy, displayed publicly to serve as a visible reminder of what happened to those who crossed them. The most effective process turned out to be carbon-freezing, with the design-intended tibanna gas being replaced with a [[Mandalorian]] named Tomas. He would hang on display for three decades, in the carbon-induced state of suspended animation, until the normal turnover of leadership resulted in his transgressions being forgotten and the outdated carbonite figure being removed and discarded. Due to his already-diminished physical condition, such as his almost non-existent eyesight, the standard effects of long-term suspended animation were barely noticeable, though what damage did occur was minimized by his cybernetic "enhancements" and eventually healed with an impressive amount of bacta when he was finally thawed from his carbonite imprisonment.

==Family. Honour. Profit.==
: "''It is a vast criminal syndicate...its influence felt on every planet from the Core Worlds to the Outer Rim. Black Sun has existed for hundreds of years and embedded itself in the very fiber of the galaxy. The resources at its disposal are almost limitless. The soldiers under its command number in the tens of thousands. The ignorant even call it the most powerful force in the known universe.''"
While it is not public knowledge what happened after his carbonite frame was discarded, Cuinn eventually emerged as an officer for the [[Black Sun]] crime syndicate. While his history with the syndicate was shrouded in secrecy, many of the details have been released since his expulsion from the organization in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). Originally recruited as a small-time enforcer, Tomas quickly worked his way up the ranks by producing results through sheer dedication and a hands-on work style. Most of his earned salary went towards improving his cybernetics, gradually returning the range of physical capabilities he'd enjoyed decades before. Of his career in [[Black Sun]], what is known is that he is a veteran of both the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, constructing homes and jobs for more than one hundred and fifty-five billion civilians and creating over one billion credits in additional monthly revenue for the syndicate. He also fought against the [[United_Rebel_Front|United Rebel Front]] during the Battle of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=5923 Axxila], securing complete control of the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=203 Ciutric Sector]. He also served as the Chief Operating Officer of the (now defunct) [[Hyrotii Corporation]] for some time, providing assistance to his good friend [[Rexan Vyrim]] during a period of increased raw material requirements. Cuinn personally re-wrote the [[Black Sun]] [http://holocron.swcombine.com/wiki/Black_Sun#Code_of_Conduct Code of Conduct], expanding its coverage and refining the format for an increased understanding, along with designing the entire training program that turned inexperienced recruits into knowledgeable and efficient members. He served as the middle ground between the Family Council and junior members, handling various personnel issues and relaying council orders throughout the chain of command. Near the end of his career with the syndicate, Cuinn was the highest-ranking officer and headed up the ("Indoctrination") Recruitment and Training division, while also working as an intelligence officer and senior member of [[Black Sun|Black Watch]].

Shortly after the [[Black Sun]] takeover of [[Xanxus Drol|Xanxus Drol’s]] company, [[The Guild Bank]], in early-to-mid [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]), Cuinn publicly sold off hundreds of the seized assets for vastly reduced prices compared to the market standard at the time. Cuinn's sales, even at reduced pricing, resulted in a net profit of almost two billion galactic credits for [[Black Sun]]. He was rewarded with a portion of the profits and an extra promotion for his role in the affair along with quickly accomplishing the massive amount of additional work without issue. The overwhelming number of sales and unusually low pricing also helped to build his public presence in the trading community.

His proven loyalty and dedicated work ethic were rewarded numerous times by both Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]] and Dark Princess [[Cait Catra]]. Despite a career demanding nothing short of respect, one of [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander von Ismay’s]] initial moves as the Dark Prince usurper was to force Cuinn out of the syndicate on the 354th day of [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander]] followed this by blacklisting and declaring Cuinn an enemy of [[Black Sun]] on the first day of [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]).

==The Opportunity of Gree==
: "''I know you're familiar with the ancient Rakata Infinite Empire. The Gree predate them by eons.''"
Tomas settled in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, accepting a position with the local Gree Enclave government as a security consultant to update the system's defenses from years of neglect. He immediately set himself to designing and overseeing construction on a series of shield networks and anti-orbital weapon platforms on each of the system's planets whilst simultaneously ordering the fabrication of new defensive and early warning space stations along the system's outer perimeter. His efforts eventually led to the founding of the [[Gree Trade Authority]], a multi-billion credit trade and security company that focused on furthering the system's development. He switched his focus toward rebuilding the infrastructure that was suppressed during [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lengthy occupation. Using his knowledge from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, he tasked the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority]] with construction infrastructure on [[Gree IV]], promoting increased immigration, tourism, and intersystem commerce.<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39174 Creating Jobs, Building Lives: Gree Trade Authority Sets Economic Records (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 16 Day 226)]</ref>.

[[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] formed numerous naval fleets to defend the system and ensure the safety of all citizens and visitors; chief among these was the impressive [[Aliit Dael'mor|Dael'mor]] fleet to help deter future attacks, formed around the former [[Black Sun]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial-class]] and [[Victory Star Destroyer|Victory-class]] [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]]. Supporting these fleets was a multi-tiered ring of defensive space stations of varying designs, including the Ataturk-class and Golan models I & II, placed in strategic locations throughout [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Placed along the outer edges of the system, a ring of XQ1-series platforms served as customs checkpoints, an advanced warning system, and the initial line of defense against pirates or other would-be invaders. Each of the platforms was supported by a [[Corona-class frigate|''Corona''-class frigate]] and sheltered two starfighter squadrons - one comprised of [[Y-wing]]s and the other of [[R-41 Starchasers|R-41 starchasers]] - for defense. An [[Imperial]] fleet arrived unexpectedly in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system in mid-[[Year 16]] ([[CGT]]), prompting the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to lock down planetary accesses and deploy its fleets in a defensive perimeter around the planets. The [[Galactic Empire]] had dispatched two [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyers]], three [[Victory Star Destroyer I|Victory I-class Star Destroyers]], and one [[Carrack/S-class Light Cruiser|Carrack/S-class light cruiser]] to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system at the behest and begging of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] Dark Prince, [[Alexander von Ismay]], due to his inability to muster their own [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] for such a show of force. While the [[Imperial]] fleet was certainly impressive, the Golan stations and [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] naval fleets would have been more than enough of a match to defend the system. However, the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] ships maintained a safe distance from [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] perimeter and simply flew reconnaissance sorties with a handful of [[TIE/sr Starfighter|TIE scouts]] whilst an [[Imperial]] Director sent casual threats to Tomas regarding [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] seized [[Star Destroyers]]. Eventually, the Imperial fleet departed, but this event spurred the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to open formal diplomatic relations with the [[New Republic]] and [[Galactic Alliance]]. Tomas knew that the Imperials would return in the future, and in greater number.

After former Underlord [[Alexander von Ismay]] was kicked out of [[Black Sun]] for petty theft and attempted blackmail, Tomas reached out to the new Dark Prince, [[Jeor Knight]], and the Family Council in an effort to quell the hostilities created by [[Alexander von Ismay|Ismay]] years before. Negotiations between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and [[Black Sun]] resulted in improved relations between the groups, as Tomas personally saw to the release of approximately one billion credits worth of [[Black Sun]]-owned vehicles that had been confiscated by [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]]. Dozens of crates containing various equipment owned by the syndicate were also released to a [[Black Sun]] pilot. Forty-two highly-trained operatives in the employ of Vigo and former Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]], and their rare and expensive equipment, were released from custody after years of imprisonment. [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] also publicly supported [[Black Sun]] in the Galactic News System<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39984 Black Sun - A Modern History Lesson (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 17 Day 167)]</ref> when the [[ViskCor News Network]] posted propaganda against the syndicate<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39979 Black Sun's Future in Imperial Union Uncertain (Hacked by Rayus Kestyn on Year 17 Day 166)]</ref>.

Early in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged a [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] employment opportunity to lure the notorious Varro Belle to [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Belle was the inside man in a [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] operation that allowed the capture of over a dozen [[Krath Dynasty]] officers, the impounding of a reported twenty-five hundred restricted starfighters, and the seizure of between twelve and thirty thousand crates of various equipment. Belle personally detained [[Lazarus Kell]], the current Emperor of [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]], during the operation's climax, and stole [[Lazarus Kell|Kell's]] prized lightsaber. The [[Krath Dynasty]] reported their losses two days later, on [[Year 17|17.262]] ([[CGT]])<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40212 Traitors strike from within the Krath (Posted by Ellias Aubec on Year 17 Day 262)]</ref>, and subsequently offered a five hundred million credit reward for his capture. Due to the [[Galactic Alliance]] and [[Krath Dynasty]] desperately wanting to see Varro Belle in cuffs, Tomas offered the criminal employment in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] star system, working construction for the [[Gree Trade Authority]]. Since Belle was a highly wanted criminal, he was desperate in seeking neutral employment in the mostly lawless [[Outer Rim Territories]] - but, as he soon learned, [[Gree (System)|Gree]] does not conform to the loose standards of law enforcement common throughout the region. After a few weeks of building trust, along with directly profiting from his labor, Tomas led a team of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] most experienced soldiers and detained Belle in orbit of the [[Gree IV]] gas giant. While Belle chose to fight back against his arrest, he was quickly overpowered by the cybernetic [[Mandalorian]] supported by an elite squad of [[Abyssin]] troops. A press release was provided to the galaxy on [[Year 18|18.53]] ([[CGT]]), less than twelve hours after his capture<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40566 Gree Press Release: Belles Are Ringing (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 18 Day 53)]</ref>. [[Lazarus Kell]], who had secured his release from [[Imperial Union]] custody and ascended the [[Krath Dynasty]] throne as Emperor, was eager to see Belle extradited from [[Gree (System)|Gree]] to [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]] to answer for his crimes. It was [[Krath Dynasty|Krath's]] Lord Imperator [[Talak Kasra]] that discussed the extradition with [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and, upon the successful negotiation, traveled to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to retrieve the prisoner. After the ordeal was finished, Tomas was overheard as stating that Belle's labor was estimated to have increased the [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree Trade Authority's]] gross monthly income by an approximate ten million credits.

From when the [[Gree Trade Authority]] was founded near the midpoint of [[Year 15]] to early [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree IV]] gas giant was the major investment and development project that consumed the majority of Tomas's time and attention. Under [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] leadership, the [[planet]] had simply served as a mining platform for tibanna gas; under the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority's]] management, however, the mining operations were greatly expanded with an emphasis on worker safety, mining process improvements, and employee morale. With an extensive investment campaign into the equipment and training for every mine worker, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was able to greatly increase the mining operation's size and, with its own investments and the increasing mine profits, extensively develop the system of interlinked platform cities across the gas giant's atmosphere. [[Gree IV]] housed barely one million citizens in [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]), but by [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), more than ten billion individuals would call the gas giant their home - an increase of ten thousand percent. The planet's economy grew with its population and become one of the largest, healthiest, and safest centers for trade and commerce in the [[Outer Rim]]. The success and development of [[Gree IV]] also led to the [[Gree Trade Authority]] being recognized by the [[galaxy]] as the governing entity of the entire [[Gree (Sector)|Gree]] sector, surpassing and replacing the [[Black Sun]] criminal syndicate.

==Command in the Resistance==
: "''So you're with the Resistance?''"
: "''Obviously. Yes I am. I'm with the Resistance, yeah. I am with the Resistance.''"
: "''I've never met a Resistance fighter before.''"
: "''Well this is what we look like, some of us. Others look different.''"
Knowing [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] precarious stance in the heart of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] territory, Tomas had worked in secret to support and ally his conglomerate with the [[New Republic]]. By [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree Trade Authority]] (and it's short-lived successor, the [[Gree Enclave]]) had signed a non-aggression pact with [[The Krath|the Krath]] and an alliance with the [[New Republic]], along with a technology agreement granting tier one access to the latter's technology. Despite this, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was acutely aware of how little a few powerful warships would matter if the [[Galactic Empire]] sent another fleet to their system. Tomas reached out to an old friend, [[The Resistance|Resistance]] Commander and former Deputy Director of [[New Republic|New Republic Intelligence]] Cedron Tryonel, and negotiations began regarding a merger between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and the [[The Resistance|Resistance]]. The result of these talks was the effective closure of the entire [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] conglomerate, with its membership and assets being absorbed into either [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] or the [[The Resistance|Resistance's]] operations.

Knowing that he suddenly had to worry about the entire [[Imperial Union]] along with operating on a galactic scale instead of simply in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, Tomas opened negotiations with Dark Prince [[Jeor Knight]] and Vigo [[Banquo Knox]] of [[Black Sun]] regarding their interest in re-obtaining [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. While negotiations were unforgiving, eventually a deal was struck to exchange Tomas's holdings in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system for [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] control over the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. The 11 billion inhabitants of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] were once again under the control of the crime syndicate, but their return to suffering was not for nothing as the approximate 165 billion civilians in the liberated sectors were suddenly freed from [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] grasp. While Tomas regretted [[Gree (System)|Gree's]] sacrifice, he knew that the liberation of two sectors was an acceptable price to pay. On top of this, galactic analysts quickly estimated [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lost revenue in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors as approximately 2.916 billion credits per year and expected the financial experts of the former [[Gree Trade Authority]] to quickly capitalize on establishing control of the businesses and income streams. Ultimately, Tomas sacrificed the four planets of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] in exchange for eight worlds - his deal cost only a single system and had taken two sectors away from the [[Imperial Union]], removing one of their strongholds in the galactic southeast. The [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector bordered space controlled by the [[New Republic]], [[The Krath|Krath]], and [[The eXiles]] - Tomas's removal of [[Black Sun]] from the sector solved a major security issue for the three [[Galactic Alliance]] groups.

After joining the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on the 85th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas spearheaded a reorganization that created several theaters of operation throughout the galaxy, each overseen by a commander who was tasked with developing and organizing their own staff and sector. Tomas was granted the rank of Theater Commander and command of the Deep Core and Morshdine Theaters, along with the third-in-command position of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and one of their three seats on the [[Galactic Alliance]] Leadership Council. Much of Tomas's work within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] has been withheld from the galactic public, though it is known that he was involved in Operation Unknown Signals, a joint task force between the [[New Republic]], [[The Resistance|Resistance]], and [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]) to respond to several distress calls originating from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=211 Tynna] [[sector]]. The task force flawlessly coordinated a [[sector]]-wide search in an effort to locate the frigates broadcasting their distress and, discovering them consecutively, rapidly dispatched dozens of hostile pirate groups at each of their locations. In the end, the joint operation was able to locate and rescue three of the four troubled [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates while the fourth was seized by the [[The Exchange|Exchange]]. Tomas was credited with just ten bandit kills, though he publicly attributed this to having only a half squadron of [[RZ-1 A-wing interceptor|A-wings]] and having spent the majority of his time flying reconnaissance before and during the combat engagements. As a reward for their aid, the Tynnani Defense Force awarded three [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates to three members of the [[New Republic]] for their individual performance, and two of the three voluntarily transferred their ships to the [[New Republic]]. One frigate was retained by the [[New Republic]] while the second was awarded to the [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] for their efforts; the third, intended for the [[The Resistance|Resistance]], was greedily kept by [[Lahasa Fy]] despite numerous offers of compensation. Tomas took issue with [[Lahasa Fy|Lahasa's]] actions, who had utilized task force intelligence, [[New Republic]] starfighters, and fought alongside pilots from all three groups, yet felt no apparent need to share in his reward; [[Lahasa Fy|Fy]] left the [[New Republic]] not long after.

Eventually, Tomas grew disillusioned with the state of the [[Galactic Alliance]], even after he was appointed to the position of Deputy Secretary-General. The distrust and lack of cooperation between the alliance's member states was a substantial issue in the fight against the [[Imperial Union]], which he had been a member of during his time in [[Black Sun]]. He began harboring resentment towards several member groups for their lack of contribution and activity within the alliance, and two of them had even spoken out strongly against him in his early appointment to the Leadership Council. Unwilling to put his energy into any sort of reform, and knowing it would likely fail due to certain inflexible leaders who predated his time in the alliance by more than a decade, Tomas ultimately decided that his future lay in another direction and resigned his posts both within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and [[Galactic Alliance]] near the end of [[Year 18]]. He had spent just less than a standard year in the positions combined, but felt that he had learned all that he needed to in order to realize that the [[Galactic Alliance|Galactic Alliance's]] fight against [[Imperial]] tyranny was doomed without serious change. After eight months as their third-in-command, Tomas departed the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on good terms on the 325th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]).

==Focusing on the Clan==
: "''I came to tell you that your people can expect to be busy in the next few months. A war is coming.''"
: "''You must be new in this galaxy. There's always a war going on somewhere, always has been, always will be. It's why Mandalorians have never gone out of business.''"
After his departure from the [[Galactic Alliance]], Tomas felt content that he could focus solely on himself and his [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian clan]], [[Dael'mor]], including the clan's holdings in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector. Chief among the required work was the removal of an alarming number of empty skyscrapers and barracks in [[Homon (System)|Homon]], abandoned when [[Black Sun]] had pulled out of the system, which Tomas contracted to [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul Khrog's]] [[Kerdos Company]] for two hundred and thirty million credits. After his project was completed, however, [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul]] disappeared from the [[galaxy]] under mysterious circumstances and the [[Kerdos Company]] suddenly under new management. No evidence has tied Tomas to the disappearance of the ex-[[Morgukai]], though plenty of rumors circulated in the following months. To further develop both of the sectors, Kez Aak's [[Endless Endeavors]] was contracted in a job estimated to be worth over five hundred million credits. Tomas also bankrolled the [[Amitus Corporation]] and acted as their Chief Financial Officer, but departed their organization after only three weeks due to unpublicized reasons.

</table></center>

On the 37th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas visited his closest ally aboard the '''[[Secutor]]''', [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer I|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] and flagship, where he was presented with a gift: a lightsaber with a green blade. Having sought to purchase a lightsaber throughout the galaxy for several years, even negotiating to pay up to five hundred million credits at one point in time, he was ecstatic with the gift given to him by [[Cait Catra]]. The lightsaber formerly belonged to Mladen Phantom, a Dark Jedi that [[Cait Catra|Catra]] had defeated several years prior, and kept as a trophy until it was gifted to Tomas. Although he was not afflicted with the [[force]], Tomas was already an avid swordsman and quickly adapted his melee combat skills to accommodate the lightsaber's unique requirements, such as all of the weight being in the hilt. He began training in Form V with a Djem So specialty, focusing on lightsaber dueling despite the obvious disadvantage he'd have against a force user. Djem So also played into the strength of his cybernetic arms, since the form relies on brute force to overpower an opponent's defense. Despite the avid attempts to train with his lightsaber, Tomas' lack of force sensitivity prevented him from achieving anything more than a basic level of dueling skill likely equivalent to that of a Padawan. Later in the year, Tomas struck a deal with his closest allies that net him a new flagship - the clan's [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] - in exchange for his controlling interests in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector, minus the ecumenopolis Woldona VII.

It was revealed near the beginning of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]) that Tomas had managed to produce more than eight hundred of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] proprietary [[Viper|Viper-class starfighters]] over a ten-month period through their negligence over access to the engineering specifications. The syndicate had failed to remove the blueprints from the shipyards in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system, though an unavoidable backdoor into the shared database system of the shipyards allowed the syndicate to remotely corrupt the engineering data after they realized their mistake. It proved far too late, however, as their error had allowed Tomas to produce more than four billion credits worth of [[Viper|Vipers]], valued on the market at five million credits each at the time of production. The market price for a single [[Viper|Viper-class starfighter]] dropped by fifty percent to two and a half million credits by the midpoint of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), however, after a large secondary supply flooded the market and [[Black Sun]] itself began to sell the fighters, likely in an attempt to both cash in on the demand due to their financial troubles and to create the appearance that the further release of their proprietary technology had barely affected the syndicate.

After the [[War for the Hosnian System]] began on the 195th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas quickly dropped his tasks in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system and set course for [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] in his [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wing interceptor]]. Despite the cramped, two-day trip, he arrived on the 198th day and immediately set to claiming land rights for future sale, securing legal ownership of five grids on [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=6243 Hosnian Prime] at the cost of eighteen million and six hundred thousand credits. He quickly sold the land rights to the [[New Republic]] for one hundred and seventy-five million credits, netting him a quick and tidy profit of just over one hundred and fifty-six million credits, immediately ensuring that the trip would be profitable. Afterward, the tremendous number of individuals and organizations flooding into the system in their own attempts to profit seemed to affect Tomas in a strange way. It was almost as if he could sense the growing number of people with hostile intent and it overwhelmed his senses, refusing to allow him any time to think or concentrate. He lost control of himself over the next several days but eventually snapped out of it, only to realize that he had hunted down and slaughtered more than three hundred sentients across three of the system's planets, cutting them down with his lightsaber as they had attempted to build basic infrastructure for their respective employers - the [[Galactic Empire]], [[Mecrosa]], and Veilhal Nomads. Torn with grief and regret over his actions, he departed the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system and returned to [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]], immediately seeking out a trusted physician to provide a throughout examination and explanation for his loss of control. Even after a substantial number of tests, the doctor simply concluded that one of his cybernetic implants had likely malfunctioned and triggered a psychotic episode.

Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), it somehow slipped into public knowledge that Tomas owned a hidden space station attached to an asteroid deep within [[the Maw]], an unstable and dangerous cluster of black holes located in the [[Kessel]] sector. Rumors surrounding the asteroid hideout suggest that it serves as a high-security prison for dangerous individuals from throughout the galaxy, sent and paid for by governments unable or unwilling to contain or execute the deadly parties. Paid handsomely for housing the risky prisoners, Tomas had ironically named the station ''Shelter'' and entrusted an unknown business associate with managing the prison for him.

==Establishing Sevetta==
Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), the remnants of the [[Gree Trade Authority]] banded together to re-emerge as the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], a collection of companies operating out of the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. Mirroring the former organization of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]], Tomas was appointed as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the conglomerate while each company's leaders became vice presidents and department heads in the overarching organization. [[DefenStar Ltd.]] was established as the flagship company for the conglomerate on [[Year 19|19.323]], [[Golan Arms]] opened on [[Year 19|19.343]], [[LodeCorp Mining]] re-opened on [[Year 20|20.002]], and [[Golan Construction]] was acquired and the [[Zaltin Corporation]] incorporated both on [[Year 20|20.160]] ([[CGT]])

When much of [[Helen Hawk|Helen Hawk's]] holdings were publicly auctioned off in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]) following her apprehension by the [[New Republic]], Tomas leveraged the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] substantial financial power to scoop up an [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter]], an [[MC-60 Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80a Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80b Star Cruiser]], and a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] for an undisclosed number of credits. The [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter|V-wing]] was sold to [[Sirius Cyan]] for five hundred million credits, while the [[MC-60 Star Cruiser|MC-60]] was traded to Robby Rae for a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] and a squadron of [[A/SF-01 B-wing Starfighter|B-wings]]; the destroyer was subsequently resold to Jimmy Roggeman for one and a half billion credits while the B-wings were individually sold to [[Drax Whittler]], Lazarus Grimm, [[Diabolus`ut Persolvo]], and [[Lorenzas Atticus]] for a combined two and three quarter billion credits. The [[MC-80a Star Cruiser|MC-80a]] was sold to [[Lilith Delcroix]] for five billion credits while the [[MC-80b Star Cruiser|MC-80b]] was sold to Esu Kyouto for eight billion credits. The final [[Sabaoth Destroyer]], however, was purchased primarily for the almost six billion credits worth of droids stored aboard which Tomas intended to sell at the next [[Jawa Swap Meet]] in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]). Even with reduced sales pricing of droids due to the increase of supply outweighing market demand, Tomas earned the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] four and a half billion credits of pure net profit from the business venture.

==The Mando'ade==
Although the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] monthly cash flow and net profits year-to-date were both in the billions of credits, Tomas grew disillusioned with running the conglomerate - just as he had with the [[Gree Trade Authority]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]). When he was approached by Mand'alor [[Kai Oryk]] about the formation of a new [[Mandalorian]] government near the mid-point of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas realized that his desire to return to the roots of his culture far outweighed the continued business success he had been pursuing for the past decade. He quietly set to disbanding the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and bringing [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], now under the leadership of his nephew [[Victor o`Cuinn]], under the banner of [[Mando'ade]]. [[DefenStar Ltd.]], [[Golan Construction]], and [[LodeCorp Mining]] were closed, while the [[Zaltin Corporation]] became a nationalized faction of [[Mando'ade]]; [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] assumed ownership and operation of [[Golan Arms]]. The [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] effectively shut its doors on [[Year 20|20.206]] ([[CGT]]) and [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] joined up [[Mando'ade]], with Tomas being granted the rank of Ko'verd and a position on the leadership council.

Tomas withdrew from the public eye and focused on his work within both [[Mando'ade]] and [[Dael'mor]]. Following the defection of [[CorSec]] to The Cooperative in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas purchased critical infrastructure on the world of [https://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=2843 Columus] from Jeff Kronn for a small fortune. In the confusion and aftermath of [[CorSec|CorSec's]] officers betraying their [[Galactic Empire]] masters, Tomas as able to secure the local population's loyalty and immediately sought to sell his holdings and influence for a profit. Soon after, Urkh Malal purchased Tomas' investment, earning the latter a reported two and a half billion credit profit in less than two months.

When the [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]] system was discovered near the end of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas established an allied coalition consisting of three different groups, which set course to the [[Western Reaches]] sector in an attempt to stake their claim. While they arrived barely in time to secure the smallest of land parcels in [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]], itself, they initiated a scouting mission within the sector due to rumors of another untouched system in the area. When they discovered the [[Takodana (System)|Takodana]] system on the 313th day of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), they quickly realize that the [[Trade Federation]] had beaten them there by approximately five days. Despite the head start and their colonization efforts underway, the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] had not yet solidified their grip over the planet and the coalition quickly moved to secure their own land rights on the planet. With the desire to prevent any bloodshed or hostilities with the [[Trade Federation]], Tomas opened negotiations with Duceroy Salamku Derov over the sale of their holdings and the cease of coalition operations on the world. A deal was struck and the coalition walked away with five hundred million credits for their troubles, having handed the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] their land and intel.

==Blue Star Dominion==
At the beginning of [[Year 21]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas decided that it was time for his people to set off on their own again. [[LodeCorp Mining]] was once again established on Day 12 to serve as a front organization for the group's activities, though it would come to grow into something much larger. After the fall of the [[New Republic]], [[LodeCorp Mining|LodeCorp]] established a mutual defense pact with the [[Rebel Alliance]] and re-confirmed its commitment against the [[Imperial Union]], later becoming a founding member of the [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] on Day 127 alongside the [[The Hyporian Commonwealth (Year 20 - Year 21)|Hyporian Commonwealth]], [[Mando'ade]], the [[Rebel Alliance]], and Stryker Military Services. The [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] was a regional defense treaty signed during the War for the Republic to defend the Galactic Southeast from an anticipated [[Imperial Union]] offensive. Despite the concern, [[Imperial Union]] activity was limited to the sectors of the former [[New Republic]] and territory sympathetic to the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] in the northern portions of the [[Outer Rim]].

On the 210th day, the [[Order of the One Sith]] became fractured upon the betrayal of [[Morgan Sathel]] and [[Kaze Zill]], who then turned on each other. [[Kaze Zill|Kaze]] was able to seize control of the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] world of [[Venaari]], which Tomas foresaw an opportunity with and purchased for three billion credits. A depot station orbiting the world was purchased from [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for a hundred and fifty million credits, while operatives were dispatched to bypass and disable the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] leader [[Darin Byrch|Darin Byrch's]] planetary shield network. While the operatives were en route, however, [[Darin Byrch|Darin]] agreed to exchange the shield network for one and a half billion credits - granting Tomas complete control. He was able to negotiate the resale of [[Venaari]] back to [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for eight billion credits, netting Tomas more than three billion credits in profit.

The desire to expand led to the establishment of the [[Blue Star Dominion]] as a sovereign government of the [[Sevetta]] sector and [[Dagu (System)|Dagu]] system on the 21st day of [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). On Day 80, Dominion Command was established to oversee operations and consisted of Cedron Tryonel, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn|Taranjeek o`Cuinn]], and Tomas o`Cuinn.

The [[Blue Star Dominion]] participated in the [[Tolonda Conflict]] led by the [[Jedi Order]] and took part in both the [[Jedi Order|Jedi's]] Operation ROID RAGE and its own Operation Appropriation. Operation Appropriation was the codename for a covert military action conducted by the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion's]] naval and marine forces to seize and destroy numerous ships owned by the [[Sith Imperium]]. With the majority of the Imperium's forces scrambling in response to their late discovery of the [[Jedi Order|Jedi Order's]] Operation ROID RAGE, Dominion Marshal Tomas o`Cuinn quietly outlined a plan with Sith Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau]], an independent operative sympathetic to the rebel cause, to launch a clandestine assault behind enemy lines. Calculating that they had a limited window of opportunity to strike, the Dominion borrowed two local [[Modular Taskforce Cruiser|Modular Taskforce Cruisers]] from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] to bring their total in the [[Tolonda]] sector to three. Two of the cruisers were dispatched to the [[Tamra (System)|Tamra]] system under the commands of Tomas and Taranjeek o`Cuinn while the third was committed to the [[Oshora (System)|Oshora]] system under the command of [[Kaze Zill]]. Each of the warships was manned by several companies of Dominion marines and escorted to the outskirts of their respective target systems by the Dominion Navy, which broke off outside of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] sensor range in an effort to maintain the cruiser's stealth. Transmitting false IFF codes, each cruiser casually made its approach into the respective system and successfully evaded notice by the Sith. In the early hours of the morning on Day 60, Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau|Tau]] transferred the access codes of the entire [[Sith Imperium]] fleet to Dominion Command, signaling execution of the plan. With much of the Imperium's personnel occupied elsewhere, the vessels in the target areas were either manned by only skeleton crews or unmanned entirely. Dominion marines rapidly executed boarding maneuvers on hundreds of ships in the three locations, quietly subduing the confused and quickly overwhelmed crews before they could raise any alarm and captured the bridges. Tractor beams from the cruisers swiftly moved the occupied vessels into their docking bays while others were flown and docked manually. The Dominion successfully seized over three hundred of the Sith Imperium's ships before the transfer of access codes was noticed and a remote reset command was sent to the fleet, prompting a hasty exit from the system for the cruisers amid the confusion and leaving behind a chaotic embarrassment for the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] to wake up to. At least two [[BFF-1 Bulk Freighter|BFF-1 bulk freighters]] were destroyed during the operation, reportedly at the hands of their own crew. An unconfirmed report from across the galaxy in the Ottega system alleged that, at the same time as the Dominion operation, an [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] [[Mammoth-class Heavy Hauler|Mammoth-class heavy hauler]] was mysteriously destroyed by what local authorities described as a remote slicing attack that exploited its fuel line. Analysts throughout the galaxy have since estimated that the Imperium lost a quarter of their entire naval fleet. Many of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] lost vessels were later used as target practice and subsequently destroyed by a Rebel task force deployed to the Petabys Conflict Zone during an unrelated operation.

After the [[Galactic Empire|Galactic Empire's]] triumph over the [[New Republic]] in [[Year 21]], months of subsequent conflict and territorial changes left thousands of outposts abandoned throughout the [[Outer Rim]]. One of these vacated bases, known as Stardew Station, was marked as an unimportant observatory at the edge of the galaxy in low-level [[New Republic]] files, yet no coordinates were included. As the combat being waged between the [[Imperial Union]] and Rebels dragged on, forces from both sides haphazardly uncovered fragments of intelligence that were carelessly secured and sloppily transmitted. The Information Operations Network (ION), a Rebel-developed intelligence tool, frequently intercepted slivers of the relayed data in an attempt to piece together the information as if it were a puzzle. It was through ION that Stardew Station was first flagged as a location of interest in [[Year 22]] due to the unusual personnel assignments prior to the outpost's desertion; the research scientists attached to the station specialized in interstellar navigation, advanced weapons development, metallurgy engineering, and progressive propulsion technologies. After the location of interested was flagged, it became easier for ION to rapidly process future incoming data relevant to that location and, after a few weeks longer, coordinates for Stardew were ascertained - the [[Pelgrin]] sector. A report was automatically generated for review by an analyst, who examined the data and determined that Stardew was worth exploring. A joint task force was formed between two nearby Rebel groups, the [[Blue Star Dominion]] and Stryker Military Services, and dispatched to investigate Stardew Station. Warden [[Kaze Zill]] was deployed to lead a detachment of Dominion Ghosts as the task force's ground unit, while Stryker's Mika Noris commanded a squadron of elite pilots to provide both naval superiority and transportation. Upon arrival at Stardew's coordinates, the task force fell under immediate attack by a coalition of pirate organizations intent on plundering the station's secrets. While his squadron engaged the pirate vessels, Noris skillfully hacked into the station's control systems, disabling the automated defenses and securing the Ghosts an opening to insert into Stardew. The Ghosts advanced through the station, combating the pirate crew who proved limited challenge for the force users and their disciplined troops. Unsupported by the station's defenses that Noris previously disabled, the pirate armada realized heavy casualties to the superior Stryker pilots. Losing contact with their forces inside as the Dominion secured the station, the pirate remnants disengaged and withdrew from Stardew. Stardew Station played host to a classified research and development program for the [[New Republic]]. The scientist's mission was to develop an advanced attack corvette capable of serving as a fleet escort picket ship and long-range patrol craft, along with countering the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] formidable DP-20c gunship. While most of the technological research had been completed and verified, the design team had not yet engineered the actual vessel. As the remnants of the [[New Republic]] were still reforming into the [[Rebel Alliance]] elsewhere in the galaxy, it was determined that completing the development of this ship was best suited to the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] and Stryker. Assisted by ION, research teams led by the Dominion's Marshal Cedron Tryonel and Stryker's Jaria Feri partnered to develop the [[MC-30b Corvette]]. Working prototypes were assembled soon after completion of the design and the vessel was quickly put into service.

Upon investigating distress calls on Day 331 of [[Year 22]], the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] discovered the lost system of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] in their capital sector of [[Sevetta]]. Rapidly perceiving that the sole planet was home to heavily-entrenched criminal cartels, Dominion Command called upon their allies for assistance in emancipating the oppressed population of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] spearheaded Operation Kowak, publicly known as the [[Battle for Kowak]], and led a large Rebel coalition to successfully liberate [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] from the criminal warlords and protect the system from potential opportunists. The coalition consisted of [[The Antarian Rangers]], [[-ARK-]], [[DOM Arsenal]], [[The Exchange]], [[Grand Duchy of Froz]], [[The Invid Order]], [[Jedi Order]], [[Mando'ade]], [[Rebel_Alliance_(Year_21)|Rebel Alliance]], [[The Resistance]], [[Rogue Squadron]], [[Stryker Military Services]], [[Ternion Corps]], and [[TIEFE]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] issued a public travel advisory on Day 332<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46276 Kowak System Travel Restriction (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 332)]</ref>, claiming control of the system and promising military action against potential invaders. Throughout the operation, the Rebel coalition continuously shipped in infantry battalions, thousands of starfighters, dozens of corvettes, and powerful capital warships such [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] and Mon Calamari Star Cruisers. [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] was fully secured on Day 337<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46293 Dominion Liberates the Kowak System (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 339)]</ref>, leading to the scaling down of the coalition's operations during the following weeks.

=Supplemental Information=
===Description===
: "''I'm just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe.''"
Tomas is a [[Hapan]] [[Category:Males|male]] of standard build standing 1.8 meters in height, rather unimposing and disarming in appearance. Despite being born in Year 55 ([[BCGT]]) and being more than seventy years old, his physical body is approximately three decades younger due to the years spent in suspended animation. Prior to skin replacement, his torso had worn a half-lifetime of scars from years spent training and fighting. Very rarely will he shed the protection of his custom-forged set of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=69 heavy battle armour] and [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=70 helmet]. A [[DLT-20a]] blaster rifle hangs on his back, held by a sling around his torso, while a pair of lightsabers hang off of his belt which also conceals the blade of a sheathed knife. To supplement the blaster's mid-range capabilities, Cuinn carries a pair of modified [[ELG-3A]] blasters for closer engagements, one strapped to his left thigh and the other on the rear of his belt.

===Cybernetics===
: "''He is a Borg who died last night. You know the term, I'm sure. Half human…half mechanical droid. Yet the man half of him had a soul, or so my faith believes.''"
Due to his extensive cybernetic implants, he could easily be classified as more cyborg than anything else. Unusually, the majority of these cybernetics are not enhancements but replacements for the physical damage received from events in Cuinn's past. The dermis and epidermis of his chest have been permanently supplanted with synthskin due to extensive second-degree burns and blunt impact trauma. A Lornan implant, the exact model number unknown, resides on his brain stem to regulate the electrical currents in his body while basic ear augmentations have been installed to generate a standard level of hearing. A pair of automated lungs draws oxygen in place of the discarded originals. Military-grade optical implants with customized, commercial-grade software replaced his damaged-beyond-repair eyes, though their only benefit over standard vision is a slight increase in night vision. Most of Cuinn's joints have been augmented with durasteel pins for added durability, albeit at the cost of their overall ranges of motion. The only cybernetic that could fairly be classified as an enhancement would be his custom-engineered arms. The engineering standards and design specifications are not known outside of a small, trusted circle, though public reports suggest that his arm strength and muscular endurance is much greater than it naturally should be.

===Trading Career===
: "''The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.''"
Tomas o`Cuinn is one of the most well-known and successful traders in the galaxy. His trading career began with [http://market.centrepointstation.com/details.php?lid=208519 the sale] of a [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Light_Freighters&ID=167 Nu-Class Attack Shuttle], which was gifted to him, to Leah Asalah on the 331st day of [[Year 13]] ([[CGT]]). He immediately adopted a profit-based business model and used the liquid capital from his initial sale to jump-start a starship trafficking business, purchasing derelict vessels for a fraction of their value and restoring them for profitable resale. Since then, his resale business has reportedly earned him billions of credits in net profit, though the early numbers are presumably inflated due to the widely-fluctuating market value of starships and his assignment from [[Black Sun]] to sell off [[The_Guild_Bank|The Guild Bank's]] assets in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). According to public rumor, his largest and most profitable transaction was his sale of controlling stake in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to [[Black Sun]] in exchange for their ownership of the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] and [[Homon (System)|Homon]] star systems, though no public records of trade have been discovered for this transaction. On the 217th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged his status as a reputable businessman in order to steal twenty billion credits from the [[Aurodium Legion]], likely the largest trade theft on known galactic record.

===Armor & Armament===
: "''My armor insures my victory in hand-to-hand combat.''"
Throughout most of his life, Tomas wore Mandalorian-style armour made from duraplast or durasteel. In [[Year 26]], he was able to acquire an ancient set of beskar armor
Though heavily outfitted, Cuinn believes in the value of allies and, as such, has cultivated a highly cohesive unit of veteran [[Abyssin]] soldiers, twelve-strong, that work closely with him on various missions. His personal [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Military&ID=7 Droideka], nicknamed Ver'gebuir, is his constant companion and bodyguard regardless of location. Due to his age, Tomas' physical dexterity and speed have declined and, as a result, has come to rely on his allies, heavy armour, and cunning to make up the difference.

===A Matter of Race (Metamorphosis Plague)===
: "''Well let's have a look at you. Hmm. Biped. More or less symmetrical. Far less hair than the last one. Opposable digits. Mostly water hey?''"
It is unknown whether Cuinn was personally affected when the [[Metamorphosis Plague]] raged across the galaxy in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). However, numerous reports from routine security scans have since surfaced with varying results in regards to his DNA. These conflicting scans, all between [[Year 14]] and [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), have classified him as [[Amani]], [[Anx]], [[Anzati]], Chagrian, Codru-Ji, [[Diathim]], [[Gotal]], [[Kaleesh]], Kushiban, [[Mirialan]], Vurk, and [[Whiphid]]. While his physical appearance is obviously that of a [[Human]] male, Tomas has said simply that he was injected with an experimental DNA scrambler while working as an operative for [[Black Sun|Black Watch]], the purpose of which was to mask his identity from enemy detection and prevent collection and/or manipulation of his DNA. While this claim isn't likely to be proven anytime soon, there are a number of rumors in circulation about Cuinn's actual race, the most interesting of which suggests that he is actually [[Clawdite]]. He has dismissed these rumors as silliness, publicly maintaining that he is simply a true-born [[Human]] of [[Hapan]] ancestry. At any point, some passive scan data has suggested that Tomas is actually more cybernetic than flesh, prompting further theories that he no longer fits into the confines of any one race - unless that race is cyborg.

[[Tomas o`Cuinn]] (pronounced /toʊˈmɑːs oʊˈkwɪn/) is a well-known businessman, industrial specialist, and military commander. He is one of two Marshals of the [[Blue Star Dominion]], Waadas'alor of [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], Governor of the [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector, and Patriarch of Clan o`Cuinn. Tomas is best known for founding the [[Gree Trade Authority]], [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], and [[Blue Star Dominion]] between [[Year 15]] and [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). He originally gained widespread recognition for his highly-advertised trading career along with galactic notoriety for his public position with the [[Black Sun|Black Sun]] crime syndicate before being dismissed from the organization at the end of [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). He has also served as a Theater Commander and third-in-command of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and as Deputy Secretary-General of the [[Galactic Alliance]].

</table></center>
Per the earliest relevant records, Tomas o`Cuinn, 20 years old, served as the youngest of seventy-five [[Mandalorian]] members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' - ''[[Mando'a]]'' for "Those Who No Longer Exist" - which was formed to train the clone commandos for the [[Galactic Republic]] on the watery world of [[Kamino]] in Year 35 ([[BCGT]]). For close to ten years, Tomas and the other members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' served as training sergeants for the elite clone commandos of the Grand Army. These battle-proven sergeants taught the ten thousand commandos in a variety of ways, including teamwork, infiltration methods, demolition techniques, assassination and much more. Along with imparting their combat prowess and tactical skills, the [[Mandalorian]] trainers also included their cultural customs and way of life, believing it important that the clones know of their heritage - especially since their genetic template was a prominent [[Mandalorian]] - despite objections from the [[Kaminoan|Kaminoans]]. When the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems]] launched attacks against the [[Galactic Republic]] in the Sumitra and Centrality sectors in Year 25 ([[BCGT]]), the previously secret clone troopers were revealed and organized into the Grand Army of the [[Galactic Republic|Republic]]; this newly organized army was immediately deployed in response to the attacks. Thus begins the Clone Wars. With their contract ended, many of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' departed [[Kamino]] and returned to their former lives, though a few remained to train future generations of clones; Tomas was among those who left.

Despite having fulfilled the decade-long training mission, Tomas was far too duty-oriented to take any sort of vacation and, as such, soon accepted a contract on an obscure [[Outer Rim]] [[planet|world]]; the job consisted of a physical security consultation for the relatively unimportant planet's government. A hideout had been recently established in the natural caves of the planet's mountains and had already proved to be a threat as the enforcers of the newly-arrived criminal organization, known as -'''REDACTED'''-, began raiding the lightly-defended towns. The planet's militia was poorly trained and equipped - a far cry from the force required to ensure security and drive the unwanted raiders off of the planet. When the criminal enforcers began to invade and seize control of entire towns, the government sought aid from the [[Galactic Republic]], but, as a non-member, their pleas were all but ignored - largely due to the start of the Clone Wars. When the government, with nowhere else to turn, began offering contracts to mercenaries for their assistance, Tomas o`Cuinn answered the call.

Realizing that a simple consultation was far from sufficient, Tomas renegotiated the contract and set to training the militiamen in combat techniques that would prove effective when harassing a larger and better-equipped force. Over the course of almost a year, the militia learned to operate as small squads capable of rapid movement, using the terrain and darkness of night to engage in unconventional warfare against the overconfident force of organized raiders who, through their shared combat experience and uniquely strict leadership hierarchy, acted almost the same as a conventional army. To demonstrate that their hostile actions would no longer be tolerated and that the militia was capable of hurting them, Tomas instructed them in irregular and psychological warfare such as guerrilla tactics and booby traps. Taught to gather intelligence prior to any operation, the militiamen would strike rapidly at the enemy forces and disappear just as quickly, injuring or killing and sowing confusion among the criminal ranks. Coupling this with strategically-placed booby traps proved effective in decreasing morale and introducing fear into the gang's soldiers, limiting their combat capacity and ending their aggressive advances against the planet's towns.

</table></center>

As Year 23 ([[BCGT]]) rolled around, the criminal force's advance had been effectively stopped, and Tomas switched strategy and worked to turn the militia - now swelling with experience and confidence earned from success - into a highly disciplined and effective military force. Just as the new training regime was beginning, however, -'''REDACTED'''- quietly brought in its heavy hitters along with reinforcements to deal with the planet's unexpected resistance to subjugation. A surprise orbital bombardment on the militia's "hidden" training base caught the unsuspecting Tomas off guard, bringing the entire compound down around him and his trainees. Tomas, mortally-wounded from the structure collapsing on him, was recovered by -'''REDACTED'''- enforcers. With the knowledge that he had been the source of their troubles on the planet, local -'''REDACTED'''- leadership made the decision to keep Tomas alive - only long enough to suffer for his insolence. To this end, his shattered arms were amputated and replaced with basic cybernetic limbs, though they were useless for all but the most basic of tasks. A Lornan implant was installed into his brain to regulate his body's electrical current since it was now incapable of doing such naturally. A cheap ear implant was installed to recover his diminished hearing - they figured he should have to suffer his own screams. His lungs, damaged beyond repair by the chemical asphyxiation and smoke inhalation caused by the bombardment, were removed and replaced with a cybernetic pair. His damaged eyes and other injuries, however, weren't deemed as life-threatening.

After the string of surgeries and a brief stint in a bacta tank, Tomas was deemed fit to undergo an extensive program of systematic torture, attacking a specific area of the body at a time over the course of several months - always fixed up overnight in a bacta tank for the fresh treatment of pain the following day. This regulated torture lasted for two years, until -'''REDACTED'''- leadership decided the expense was no longer worth the continued punishment and opted to turn Cuinn into a trophy, displayed publicly to serve as a visible reminder of what happened to those who crossed them. The most effective process turned out to be carbon-freezing, with the design-intended tibanna gas being replaced with a [[Mandalorian]] named Tomas. He would hang on display for three decades, in the carbon-induced state of suspended animation, until the normal turnover of leadership resulted in his transgressions being forgotten and the outdated carbonite figure being removed and discarded. Due to his already-diminished physical condition, such as his almost non-existent eyesight, the standard effects of long-term suspended animation were barely noticeable, though what damage did occur was minimized by his cybernetic "enhancements" and eventually healed with an impressive amount of bacta when he was finally thawed from his carbonite imprisonment.

==Family. Honour. Profit.==
: "''It is a vast criminal syndicate...its influence felt on every planet from the Core Worlds to the Outer Rim. Black Sun has existed for hundreds of years and embedded itself in the very fiber of the galaxy. The resources at its disposal are almost limitless. The soldiers under its command number in the tens of thousands. The ignorant even call it the most powerful force in the known universe.''"
While it is not public knowledge what happened after his carbonite frame was discarded, Cuinn eventually emerged as an officer for the [[Black Sun]] crime syndicate. While his history with the syndicate was shrouded in secrecy, many of the details have been released since his expulsion from the organization in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). Originally recruited as a small-time enforcer, Tomas quickly worked his way up the ranks by producing results through sheer dedication and a hands-on work style. Most of his earned salary went towards improving his cybernetics, gradually returning the range of physical capabilities he'd enjoyed decades before. Of his career in [[Black Sun]], what is known is that he is a veteran of both the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, constructing homes and jobs for more than one hundred and fifty-five billion civilians and creating over one billion credits in additional monthly revenue for the syndicate. He also fought against the [[United_Rebel_Front|United Rebel Front]] during the Battle of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=5923 Axxila], securing complete control of the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=203 Ciutric Sector]. He also served as the Chief Operating Officer of the (now defunct) [[Hyrotii Corporation]] for some time, providing assistance to his good friend [[Rexan Vyrim]] during a period of increased raw material requirements. Cuinn personally re-wrote the [[Black Sun]] [http://holocron.swcombine.com/wiki/Black_Sun#Code_of_Conduct Code of Conduct], expanding its coverage and refining the format for an increased understanding, along with designing the entire training program that turned inexperienced recruits into knowledgeable and efficient members. He served as the middle ground between the Family Council and junior members, handling various personnel issues and relaying council orders throughout the chain of command. Near the end of his career with the syndicate, Cuinn was the highest-ranking officer and headed up the ("Indoctrination") Recruitment and Training division, while also working as an intelligence officer and senior member of [[Black Sun|Black Watch]].

</table></center>

Shortly after the [[Black Sun]] takeover of [[Xanxus Drol|Xanxus Drol’s]] company, [[The Guild Bank]], in early-to-mid [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]), Cuinn publicly sold off hundreds of the seized assets for vastly reduced prices compared to the market standard at the time. Cuinn's sales, even at reduced pricing, resulted in a net profit of almost two billion galactic credits for [[Black Sun]]. He was rewarded with a portion of the profits and an extra promotion for his role in the affair along with quickly accomplishing the massive amount of additional work without issue. The overwhelming number of sales and unusually low pricing also helped to build his public presence in the trading community.

His proven loyalty and dedicated work ethic were rewarded numerous times by both Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]] and Dark Princess [[Cait Catra]]. Despite a career demanding nothing short of respect, one of [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander von Ismay’s]] initial moves as the Dark Prince usurper was to force Cuinn out of the syndicate on the 354th day of [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander]] followed this by blacklisting and declaring Cuinn an enemy of [[Black Sun]] on the first day of [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]).

==The Opportunity of Gree==
: "''I know you're familiar with the ancient Rakata Infinite Empire. The Gree predate them by eons.''"
Tomas settled in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, accepting a position with the local Gree Enclave government as a security consultant to update the system's defenses from years of neglect. He immediately set himself to designing and overseeing construction on a series of shield networks and anti-orbital weapon platforms on each of the system's planets whilst simultaneously ordering the fabrication of new defensive and early warning space stations along the system's outer perimeter. His efforts eventually led to the founding of the [[Gree Trade Authority]], a multi-billion credit trade and security company that focused on furthering the system's development. He switched his focus toward rebuilding the infrastructure that was suppressed during [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lengthy occupation. Using his knowledge from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, he tasked the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority]] with construction infrastructure on [[Gree IV]], promoting increased immigration, tourism, and intersystem commerce.<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39174 Creating Jobs, Building Lives: Gree Trade Authority Sets Economic Records (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 16 Day 226)]</ref>.

[[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] formed numerous naval fleets to defend the system and ensure the safety of all citizens and visitors; chief among these was the impressive [[Aliit Dael'mor|Dael'mor]] fleet to help deter future attacks, formed around the former [[Black Sun]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial-class]] and [[Victory Star Destroyer|Victory-class]] [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]]. Supporting these fleets was a multi-tiered ring of defensive space stations of varying designs, including the Ataturk-class and Golan models I & II, placed in strategic locations throughout [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Placed along the outer edges of the system, a ring of XQ1-series platforms served as customs checkpoints, an advanced warning system, and the initial line of defense against pirates or other would-be invaders. Each of the platforms was supported by a [[Corona-class frigate|''Corona''-class frigate]] and sheltered two starfighter squadrons - one comprised of [[Y-wing]]s and the other of [[R-41 Starchasers|R-41 starchasers]] - for defense. An [[Imperial]] fleet arrived unexpectedly in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system in mid-[[Year 16]] ([[CGT]]), prompting the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to lock down planetary accesses and deploy its fleets in a defensive perimeter around the planets. The [[Galactic Empire]] had dispatched two [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyers]], three [[Victory Star Destroyer I|Victory I-class Star Destroyers]], and one [[Carrack/S-class Light Cruiser|Carrack/S-class light cruiser]] to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system at the behest and begging of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] Dark Prince, [[Alexander von Ismay]], due to his inability to muster their own [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] for such a show of force. While the [[Imperial]] fleet was certainly impressive, the Golan stations and [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] naval fleets would have been more than enough of a match to defend the system. However, the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] ships maintained a safe distance from [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] perimeter and simply flew reconnaissance sorties with a handful of [[TIE/sr Starfighter|TIE scouts]] whilst an [[Imperial]] Director sent casual threats to Tomas regarding [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] seized [[Star Destroyers]]. Eventually, the Imperial fleet departed, but this event spurred the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to open formal diplomatic relations with the [[New Republic]] and [[Galactic Alliance]]. Tomas knew that the Imperials would return in the future, and in greater number.

After former Underlord [[Alexander von Ismay]] was kicked out of [[Black Sun]] for petty theft and attempted blackmail, Tomas reached out to the new Dark Prince, [[Jeor Knight]], and the Family Council in an effort to quell the hostilities created by [[Alexander von Ismay|Ismay]] years before. Negotiations between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and [[Black Sun]] resulted in improved relations between the groups, as Tomas personally saw to the release of approximately one billion credits worth of [[Black Sun]]-owned vehicles that had been confiscated by [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]]. Dozens of crates containing various equipment owned by the syndicate were also released to a [[Black Sun]] pilot. Forty-two highly-trained operatives in the employ of Vigo and former Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]], and their rare and expensive equipment, were released from custody after years of imprisonment. [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] also publicly supported [[Black Sun]] in the Galactic News System<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39984 Black Sun - A Modern History Lesson (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 17 Day 167)]</ref> when the [[ViskCor News Network]] posted propaganda against the syndicate<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39979 Black Sun's Future in Imperial Union Uncertain (Hacked by Rayus Kestyn on Year 17 Day 166)]</ref>.

Early in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged a [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] employment opportunity to lure the notorious Varro Belle to [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Belle was the inside man in a [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] operation that allowed the capture of over a dozen [[Krath Dynasty]] officers, the impounding of a reported twenty-five hundred restricted starfighters, and the seizure of between twelve and thirty thousand crates of various equipment. Belle personally detained [[Lazarus Kell]], the current Emperor of [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]], during the operation's climax, and stole [[Lazarus Kell|Kell's]] prized lightsaber. The [[Krath Dynasty]] reported their losses two days later, on [[Year 17|17.262]] ([[CGT]])<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40212 Traitors strike from within the Krath (Posted by Ellias Aubec on Year 17 Day 262)]</ref>, and subsequently offered a five hundred million credit reward for his capture. Due to the [[Galactic Alliance]] and [[Krath Dynasty]] desperately wanting to see Varro Belle in cuffs, Tomas offered the criminal employment in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] star system, working construction for the [[Gree Trade Authority]]. Since Belle was a highly wanted criminal, he was desperate in seeking neutral employment in the mostly lawless [[Outer Rim Territories]] - but, as he soon learned, [[Gree (System)|Gree]] does not conform to the loose standards of law enforcement common throughout the region. After a few weeks of building trust, along with directly profiting from his labor, Tomas led a team of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] most experienced soldiers and detained Belle in orbit of the [[Gree IV]] gas giant. While Belle chose to fight back against his arrest, he was quickly overpowered by the cybernetic [[Mandalorian]] supported by an elite squad of [[Abyssin]] troops. A press release was provided to the galaxy on [[Year 18|18.53]] ([[CGT]]), less than twelve hours after his capture<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40566 Gree Press Release: Belles Are Ringing (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 18 Day 53)]</ref>. [[Lazarus Kell]], who had secured his release from [[Imperial Union]] custody and ascended the [[Krath Dynasty]] throne as Emperor, was eager to see Belle extradited from [[Gree (System)|Gree]] to [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]] to answer for his crimes. It was [[Krath Dynasty|Krath's]] Lord Imperator [[Talak Kasra]] that discussed the extradition with [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and, upon the successful negotiation, traveled to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to retrieve the prisoner. After the ordeal was finished, Tomas was overheard as stating that Belle's labor was estimated to have increased the [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree Trade Authority's]] gross monthly income by an approximate ten million credits.

From when the [[Gree Trade Authority]] was founded near the midpoint of [[Year 15]] to early [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree IV]] gas giant was the major investment and development project that consumed the majority of Tomas's time and attention. Under [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] leadership, the [[planet]] had simply served as a mining platform for tibanna gas; under the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority's]] management, however, the mining operations were greatly expanded with an emphasis on worker safety, mining process improvements, and employee morale. With an extensive investment campaign into the equipment and training for every mine worker, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was able to greatly increase the mining operation's size and, with its own investments and the increasing mine profits, extensively develop the system of interlinked platform cities across the gas giant's atmosphere. [[Gree IV]] housed barely one million citizens in [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]), but by [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), more than ten billion individuals would call the gas giant their home - an increase of ten thousand percent. The planet's economy grew with its population and become one of the largest, healthiest, and safest centers for trade and commerce in the [[Outer Rim]]. The success and development of [[Gree IV]] also led to the [[Gree Trade Authority]] being recognized by the [[galaxy]] as the governing entity of the entire [[Gree (Sector)|Gree]] sector, surpassing and replacing the [[Black Sun]] criminal syndicate.

==Command in the Resistance==
: "''So you're with the Resistance?''"
: "''Obviously. Yes I am. I'm with the Resistance, yeah. I am with the Resistance.''"
: "''I've never met a Resistance fighter before.''"
: "''Well this is what we look like, some of us. Others look different.''"
Knowing [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] precarious stance in the heart of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] territory, Tomas had worked in secret to support and ally his conglomerate with the [[New Republic]]. By [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree Trade Authority]] (and it's short-lived successor, the [[Gree Enclave]]) had signed a non-aggression pact with [[The Krath|the Krath]] and an alliance with the [[New Republic]], along with a technology agreement granting tier one access to the latter's technology. Despite this, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was acutely aware of how little a few powerful warships would matter if the [[Galactic Empire]] sent another fleet to their system. Tomas reached out to an old friend, [[The Resistance|Resistance]] Commander and former Deputy Director of [[New Republic|New Republic Intelligence]] Cedron Tryonel, and negotiations began regarding a merger between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and the [[The Resistance|Resistance]]. The result of these talks was the effective closure of the entire [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] conglomerate, with its membership and assets being absorbed into either [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] or the [[The Resistance|Resistance's]] operations.

Knowing that he suddenly had to worry about the entire [[Imperial Union]] along with operating on a galactic scale instead of simply in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, Tomas opened negotiations with Dark Prince [[Jeor Knight]] and Vigo [[Banquo Knox]] of [[Black Sun]] regarding their interest in re-obtaining [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. While negotiations were unforgiving, eventually a deal was struck to exchange Tomas's holdings in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system for [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] control over the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. The 11 billion inhabitants of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] were once again under the control of the crime syndicate, but their return to suffering was not for nothing as the approximate 165 billion civilians in the liberated sectors were suddenly freed from [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] grasp. While Tomas regretted [[Gree (System)|Gree's]] sacrifice, he knew that the liberation of two sectors was an acceptable price to pay. On top of this, galactic analysts quickly estimated [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lost revenue in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors as approximately 2.916 billion credits per year and expected the financial experts of the former [[Gree Trade Authority]] to quickly capitalize on establishing control of the businesses and income streams. Ultimately, Tomas sacrificed the four planets of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] in exchange for eight worlds - his deal cost only a single system and had taken two sectors away from the [[Imperial Union]], removing one of their strongholds in the galactic southeast. The [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector bordered space controlled by the [[New Republic]], [[The Krath|Krath]], and [[The eXiles]] - Tomas's removal of [[Black Sun]] from the sector solved a major security issue for the three [[Galactic Alliance]] groups.

After joining the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on the 85th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas spearheaded a reorganization that created several theaters of operation throughout the galaxy, each overseen by a commander who was tasked with developing and organizing their own staff and sector. Tomas was granted the rank of Theater Commander and command of the Deep Core and Morshdine Theaters, along with the third-in-command position of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and one of their three seats on the [[Galactic Alliance]] Leadership Council. Much of Tomas's work within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] has been withheld from the galactic public, though it is known that he was involved in Operation Unknown Signals, a joint task force between the [[New Republic]], [[The Resistance|Resistance]], and [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]) to respond to several distress calls originating from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=211 Tynna] [[sector]]. The task force flawlessly coordinated a [[sector]]-wide search in an effort to locate the frigates broadcasting their distress and, discovering them consecutively, rapidly dispatched dozens of hostile pirate groups at each of their locations. In the end, the joint operation was able to locate and rescue three of the four troubled [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates while the fourth was seized by the [[The Exchange|Exchange]]. Tomas was credited with just ten bandit kills, though he publicly attributed this to having only a half squadron of [[RZ-1 A-wing interceptor|A-wings]] and having spent the majority of his time flying reconnaissance before and during the combat engagements. As a reward for their aid, the Tynnani Defense Force awarded three [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates to three members of the [[New Republic]] for their individual performance, and two of the three voluntarily transferred their ships to the [[New Republic]]. One frigate was retained by the [[New Republic]] while the second was awarded to the [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] for their efforts; the third, intended for the [[The Resistance|Resistance]], was greedily kept by [[Lahasa Fy]] despite numerous offers of compensation. Tomas took issue with [[Lahasa Fy|Lahasa's]] actions, who had utilized task force intelligence, [[New Republic]] starfighters, and fought alongside pilots from all three groups, yet felt no apparent need to share in his reward; [[Lahasa Fy|Fy]] left the [[New Republic]] not long after.

Eventually, Tomas grew disillusioned with the state of the [[Galactic Alliance]], even after he was appointed to the position of Deputy Secretary-General. The distrust and lack of cooperation between the alliance's member states was a substantial issue in the fight against the [[Imperial Union]], which he had been a member of during his time in [[Black Sun]]. He began harboring resentment towards several member groups for their lack of contribution and activity within the alliance, and two of them had even spoken out strongly against him in his early appointment to the Leadership Council. Unwilling to put his energy into any sort of reform, and knowing it would likely fail due to certain inflexible leaders who predated his time in the alliance by more than a decade, Tomas ultimately decided that his future lay in another direction and resigned his posts both within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and [[Galactic Alliance]] near the end of [[Year 18]]. He had spent just less than a standard year in the positions combined, but felt that he had learned all that he needed to in order to realize that the [[Galactic Alliance|Galactic Alliance's]] fight against [[Imperial]] tyranny was doomed without serious change. After eight months as their third-in-command, Tomas departed the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on good terms on the 325th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]).

==Focusing on the Clan==
: "''I came to tell you that your people can expect to be busy in the next few months. A war is coming.''"
: "''You must be new in this galaxy. There's always a war going on somewhere, always has been, always will be. It's why Mandalorians have never gone out of business.''"
After his departure from the [[Galactic Alliance]], Tomas felt content that he could focus solely on himself and his [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian clan]], [[Dael'mor]], including the clan's holdings in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector. Chief among the required work was the removal of an alarming number of empty skyscrapers and barracks in [[Homon (System)|Homon]], abandoned when [[Black Sun]] had pulled out of the system, which Tomas contracted to [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul Khrog's]] [[Kerdos Company]] for two hundred and thirty million credits. After his project was completed, however, [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul]] disappeared from the [[galaxy]] under mysterious circumstances and the [[Kerdos Company]] suddenly under new management. No evidence has tied Tomas to the disappearance of the ex-[[Morgukai]], though plenty of rumors circulated in the following months. To further develop both of the sectors, Kez Aak's [[Endless Endeavors]] was contracted in a job estimated to be worth over five hundred million credits. Tomas also bankrolled the [[Amitus Corporation]] and acted as their Chief Financial Officer, but departed their organization after only three weeks due to unpublicized reasons.

</table></center>

On the 37th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas visited his closest ally aboard the '''[[Secutor]]''', [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer I|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] and flagship, where he was presented with a gift: a lightsaber with a green blade. Having sought to purchase a lightsaber throughout the galaxy for several years, even negotiating to pay up to five hundred million credits at one point in time, he was ecstatic with the gift given to him by [[Cait Catra]]. The lightsaber formerly belonged to Mladen Phantom, a Dark Jedi that [[Cait Catra|Catra]] had defeated several years prior, and kept as a trophy until it was gifted to Tomas. Although he was not afflicted with the [[force]], Tomas was already an avid swordsman and quickly adapted his melee combat skills to accommodate the lightsaber's unique requirements, such as all of the weight being in the hilt. He began training in Form V with a Djem So specialty, focusing on lightsaber dueling despite the obvious disadvantage he'd have against a force user. Djem So also played into the strength of his cybernetic arms, since the form relies on brute force to overpower an opponent's defense. Despite the avid attempts to train with his lightsaber, Tomas' lack of force sensitivity prevented him from achieving anything more than a basic level of dueling skill likely equivalent to that of a Padawan. Later in the year, Tomas struck a deal with his closest allies that net him a new flagship - the clan's [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] - in exchange for his controlling interests in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector, minus the ecumenopolis Woldona VII.

It was revealed near the beginning of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]) that Tomas had managed to produce more than eight hundred of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] proprietary [[Viper|Viper-class starfighters]] over a ten-month period through their negligence over access to the engineering specifications. The syndicate had failed to remove the blueprints from the shipyards in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system, though an unavoidable backdoor into the shared database system of the shipyards allowed the syndicate to remotely corrupt the engineering data after they realized their mistake. It proved far too late, however, as their error had allowed Tomas to produce more than four billion credits worth of [[Viper|Vipers]], valued on the market at five million credits each at the time of production. The market price for a single [[Viper|Viper-class starfighter]] dropped by fifty percent to two and a half million credits by the midpoint of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), however, after a large secondary supply flooded the market and [[Black Sun]] itself began to sell the fighters, likely in an attempt to both cash in on the demand due to their financial troubles and to create the appearance that the further release of their proprietary technology had barely affected the syndicate.

After the [[War for the Hosnian System]] began on the 195th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas quickly dropped his tasks in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system and set course for [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] in his [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wing interceptor]]. Despite the cramped, two-day trip, he arrived on the 198th day and immediately set to claiming land rights for future sale, securing legal ownership of five grids on [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=6243 Hosnian Prime] at the cost of eighteen million and six hundred thousand credits. He quickly sold the land rights to the [[New Republic]] for one hundred and seventy-five million credits, netting him a quick and tidy profit of just over one hundred and fifty-six million credits, immediately ensuring that the trip would be profitable. Afterward, the tremendous number of individuals and organizations flooding into the system in their own attempts to profit seemed to affect Tomas in a strange way. It was almost as if he could sense the growing number of people with hostile intent and it overwhelmed his senses, refusing to allow him any time to think or concentrate. He lost control of himself over the next several days but eventually snapped out of it, only to realize that he had hunted down and slaughtered more than three hundred sentients across three of the system's planets, cutting them down with his lightsaber as they had attempted to build basic infrastructure for their respective employers - the [[Galactic Empire]], [[Mecrosa]], and Veilhal Nomads. Torn with grief and regret over his actions, he departed the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system and returned to [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]], immediately seeking out a trusted physician to provide a throughout examination and explanation for his loss of control. Even after a substantial number of tests, the doctor simply concluded that one of his cybernetic implants had likely malfunctioned and triggered a psychotic episode.

Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), it somehow slipped into public knowledge that Tomas owned a hidden space station attached to an asteroid deep within [[the Maw]], an unstable and dangerous cluster of black holes located in the [[Kessel]] sector. Rumors surrounding the asteroid hideout suggest that it serves as a high-security prison for dangerous individuals from throughout the galaxy, sent and paid for by governments unable or unwilling to contain or execute the deadly parties. Paid handsomely for housing the risky prisoners, Tomas had ironically named the station ''Shelter'' and entrusted an unknown business associate with managing the prison for him.

==Establishing Sevetta==
Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), the remnants of the [[Gree Trade Authority]] banded together to re-emerge as the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], a collection of companies operating out of the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. Mirroring the former organization of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]], Tomas was appointed as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the conglomerate while each company's leaders became vice presidents and department heads in the overarching organization. [[DefenStar Ltd.]] was established as the flagship company for the conglomerate on [[Year 19|19.323]], [[Golan Arms]] opened on [[Year 19|19.343]], [[LodeCorp Mining]] re-opened on [[Year 20|20.002]], and [[Golan Construction]] was acquired and the [[Zaltin Corporation]] incorporated both on [[Year 20|20.160]] ([[CGT]])

When much of [[Helen Hawk|Helen Hawk's]] holdings were publicly auctioned off in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]) following her apprehension by the [[New Republic]], Tomas leveraged the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] substantial financial power to scoop up an [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter]], an [[MC-60 Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80a Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80b Star Cruiser]], and a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] for an undisclosed number of credits. The [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter|V-wing]] was sold to [[Sirius Cyan]] for five hundred million credits, while the [[MC-60 Star Cruiser|MC-60]] was traded to Robby Rae for a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] and a squadron of [[A/SF-01 B-wing Starfighter|B-wings]]; the destroyer was subsequently resold to Jimmy Roggeman for one and a half billion credits while the B-wings were individually sold to [[Drax Whittler]], Lazarus Grimm, [[Diabolus`ut Persolvo]], and [[Lorenzas Atticus]] for a combined two and three quarter billion credits. The [[MC-80a Star Cruiser|MC-80a]] was sold to [[Lilith Delcroix]] for five billion credits while the [[MC-80b Star Cruiser|MC-80b]] was sold to Esu Kyouto for eight billion credits. The final [[Sabaoth Destroyer]], however, was purchased primarily for the almost six billion credits worth of droids stored aboard which Tomas intended to sell at the next [[Jawa Swap Meet]] in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]). Even with reduced sales pricing of droids due to the increase of supply outweighing market demand, Tomas earned the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] four and a half billion credits of pure net profit from the business venture.

==The Mando'ade==
Although the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] monthly cash flow and net profits year-to-date were both in the billions of credits, Tomas grew disillusioned with running the conglomerate - just as he had with the [[Gree Trade Authority]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]). When he was approached by Mand'alor [[Kai Oryk]] about the formation of a new [[Mandalorian]] government near the mid-point of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas realized that his desire to return to the roots of his culture far outweighed the continued business success he had been pursuing for the past decade. He quietly set to disbanding the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and bringing [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], now under the leadership of his nephew [[Victor o`Cuinn]], under the banner of [[Mando'ade]]. [[DefenStar Ltd.]], [[Golan Construction]], and [[LodeCorp Mining]] were closed, while the [[Zaltin Corporation]] became a nationalized faction of [[Mando'ade]]; [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] assumed ownership and operation of [[Golan Arms]]. The [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] effectively shut its doors on [[Year 20|20.206]] ([[CGT]]) and [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] joined up [[Mando'ade]], with Tomas being granted the rank of Ko'verd and a position on the leadership council.

Tomas withdrew from the public eye and focused on his work within both [[Mando'ade]] and [[Dael'mor]]. Following the defection of [[CorSec]] to The Cooperative in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas purchased critical infrastructure on the world of [https://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=2843 Columus] from Jeff Kronn for a small fortune. In the confusion and aftermath of [[CorSec|CorSec's]] officers betraying their [[Galactic Empire]] masters, Tomas as able to secure the local population's loyalty and immediately sought to sell his holdings and influence for a profit. Soon after, Urkh Malal purchased Tomas' investment, earning the latter a reported two and a half billion credit profit in less than two months.

When the [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]] system was discovered near the end of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas established an allied coalition consisting of three different groups, which set course to the [[Western Reaches]] sector in an attempt to stake their claim. While they arrived barely in time to secure the smallest of land parcels in [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]], itself, they initiated a scouting mission within the sector due to rumors of another untouched system in the area. When they discovered the [[Takodana (System)|Takodana]] system on the 313th day of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), they quickly realize that the [[Trade Federation]] had beaten them there by approximately five days. Despite the head start and their colonization efforts underway, the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] had not yet solidified their grip over the planet and the coalition quickly moved to secure their own land rights on the planet. With the desire to prevent any bloodshed or hostilities with the [[Trade Federation]], Tomas opened negotiations with Duceroy Salamku Derov over the sale of their holdings and the cease of coalition operations on the world. A deal was struck and the coalition walked away with five hundred million credits for their troubles, having handed the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] their land and intel.

==Blue Star Dominion==
At the beginning of [[Year 21]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas decided that it was time for his people to set off on their own again. [[LodeCorp Mining]] was once again established on Day 12 to serve as a front organization for the group's activities, though it would come to grow into something much larger. After the fall of the [[New Republic]], [[LodeCorp Mining|LodeCorp]] established a mutual defense pact with the [[Rebel Alliance]] and re-confirmed its commitment against the [[Imperial Union]], later becoming a founding member of the [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] on Day 127 alongside the [[The Hyporian Commonwealth (Year 20 - Year 21)|Hyporian Commonwealth]], [[Mando'ade]], the [[Rebel Alliance]], and Stryker Military Services. The [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] was a regional defense treaty signed during the War for the Republic to defend the Galactic Southeast from an anticipated [[Imperial Union]] offensive. Despite the concern, [[Imperial Union]] activity was limited to the sectors of the former [[New Republic]] and territory sympathetic to the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] in the northern portions of the [[Outer Rim]].

On the 210th day, the [[Order of the One Sith]] became fractured upon the betrayal of [[Morgan Sathel]] and [[Kaze Zill]], who then turned on each other. [[Kaze Zill|Kaze]] was able to seize control of the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] world of [[Venaari]], which Tomas foresaw an opportunity with and purchased for three billion credits. A depot station orbiting the world was purchased from [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for a hundred and fifty million credits, while operatives were dispatched to bypass and disable the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] leader [[Darin Byrch|Darin Byrch's]] planetary shield network. While the operatives were en route, however, [[Darin Byrch|Darin]] agreed to exchange the shield network for one and a half billion credits - granting Tomas complete control. He was able to negotiate the resale of [[Venaari]] back to [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for eight billion credits, netting Tomas more than three billion credits in profit.

The desire to expand led to the establishment of the [[Blue Star Dominion]] as a sovereign government of the [[Sevetta]] sector and [[Dagu (System)|Dagu]] system on the 21st day of [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). On Day 80, Dominion Command was established to oversee operations and consisted of Cedron Tryonel, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn|Taranjeek o`Cuinn]], and Tomas o`Cuinn.

The [[Blue Star Dominion]] participated in the [[Tolonda Conflict]] led by the [[Jedi Order]] and took part in both the [[Jedi Order|Jedi's]] Operation ROID RAGE and its own Operation Appropriation. Operation Appropriation was the codename for a covert military action conducted by the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion's]] naval and marine forces to seize and destroy numerous ships owned by the [[Sith Imperium]]. With the majority of the Imperium's forces scrambling in response to their late discovery of the [[Jedi Order|Jedi Order's]] Operation ROID RAGE, Dominion Marshal Tomas o`Cuinn quietly outlined a plan with Sith Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau]], an independent operative sympathetic to the rebel cause, to launch a clandestine assault behind enemy lines. Calculating that they had a limited window of opportunity to strike, the Dominion borrowed two local [[Modular Taskforce Cruiser|Modular Taskforce Cruisers]] from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] to bring their total in the [[Tolonda]] sector to three. Two of the cruisers were dispatched to the [[Tamra (System)|Tamra]] system under the commands of Tomas and Taranjeek o`Cuinn while the third was committed to the [[Oshora (System)|Oshora]] system under the command of [[Kaze Zill]]. Each of the warships was manned by several companies of Dominion marines and escorted to the outskirts of their respective target systems by the Dominion Navy, which broke off outside of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] sensor range in an effort to maintain the cruiser's stealth. Transmitting false IFF codes, each cruiser casually made its approach into the respective system and successfully evaded notice by the Sith. In the early hours of the morning on Day 60, Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau|Tau]] transferred the access codes of the entire [[Sith Imperium]] fleet to Dominion Command, signaling execution of the plan. With much of the Imperium's personnel occupied elsewhere, the vessels in the target areas were either manned by only skeleton crews or unmanned entirely. Dominion marines rapidly executed boarding maneuvers on hundreds of ships in the three locations, quietly subduing the confused and quickly overwhelmed crews before they could raise any alarm and captured the bridges. Tractor beams from the cruisers swiftly moved the occupied vessels into their docking bays while others were flown and docked manually. The Dominion successfully seized over three hundred of the Sith Imperium's ships before the transfer of access codes was noticed and a remote reset command was sent to the fleet, prompting a hasty exit from the system for the cruisers amid the confusion and leaving behind a chaotic embarrassment for the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] to wake up to. At least two [[BFF-1 Bulk Freighter|BFF-1 bulk freighters]] were destroyed during the operation, reportedly at the hands of their own crew. An unconfirmed report from across the galaxy in the Ottega system alleged that, at the same time as the Dominion operation, an [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] [[Mammoth-class Heavy Hauler|Mammoth-class heavy hauler]] was mysteriously destroyed by what local authorities described as a remote slicing attack that exploited its fuel line. Analysts throughout the galaxy have since estimated that the Imperium lost a quarter of their entire naval fleet. Many of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] lost vessels were later used as target practice and subsequently destroyed by a Rebel task force deployed to the Petabys Conflict Zone during an unrelated operation.

After the [[Galactic Empire|Galactic Empire's]] triumph over the [[New Republic]] in [[Year 21]], months of subsequent conflict and territorial changes left thousands of outposts abandoned throughout the [[Outer Rim]]. One of these vacated bases, known as Stardew Station, was marked as an unimportant observatory at the edge of the galaxy in low-level [[New Republic]] files, yet no coordinates were included. As the combat being waged between the [[Imperial Union]] and Rebels dragged on, forces from both sides haphazardly uncovered fragments of intelligence that were carelessly secured and sloppily transmitted. The Information Operations Network (ION), a Rebel-developed intelligence tool, frequently intercepted slivers of the relayed data in an attempt to piece together the information as if it were a puzzle. It was through ION that Stardew Station was first flagged as a location of interest in [[Year 22]] due to the unusual personnel assignments prior to the outpost's desertion; the research scientists attached to the station specialized in interstellar navigation, advanced weapons development, metallurgy engineering, and progressive propulsion technologies. After the location of interested was flagged, it became easier for ION to rapidly process future incoming data relevant to that location and, after a few weeks longer, coordinates for Stardew were ascertained - the [[Pelgrin]] sector. A report was automatically generated for review by an analyst, who examined the data and determined that Stardew was worth exploring. A joint task force was formed between two nearby Rebel groups, the [[Blue Star Dominion]] and Stryker Military Services, and dispatched to investigate Stardew Station. Warden [[Kaze Zill]] was deployed to lead a detachment of Dominion Ghosts as the task force's ground unit, while Stryker's Mika Noris commanded a squadron of elite pilots to provide both naval superiority and transportation. Upon arrival at Stardew's coordinates, the task force fell under immediate attack by a coalition of pirate organizations intent on plundering the station's secrets. While his squadron engaged the pirate vessels, Noris skillfully hacked into the station's control systems, disabling the automated defenses and securing the Ghosts an opening to insert into Stardew. The Ghosts advanced through the station, combating the pirate crew who proved limited challenge for the force users and their disciplined troops. Unsupported by the station's defenses that Noris previously disabled, the pirate armada realized heavy casualties to the superior Stryker pilots. Losing contact with their forces inside as the Dominion secured the station, the pirate remnants disengaged and withdrew from Stardew. Stardew Station played host to a classified research and development program for the [[New Republic]]. The scientist's mission was to develop an advanced attack corvette capable of serving as a fleet escort picket ship and long-range patrol craft, along with countering the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] formidable DP-20c gunship. While most of the technological research had been completed and verified, the design team had not yet engineered the actual vessel. As the remnants of the [[New Republic]] were still reforming into the [[Rebel Alliance]] elsewhere in the galaxy, it was determined that completing the development of this ship was best suited to the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] and Stryker. Assisted by ION, research teams led by the Dominion's Marshal Cedron Tryonel and Stryker's Jaria Feri partnered to develop the [[MC-30b Corvette]]. Working prototypes were assembled soon after completion of the design and the vessel was quickly put into service.

Upon investigating distress calls on Day 331 of [[Year 22]], the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] discovered the lost system of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] in their capital sector of [[Sevetta]]. Rapidly perceiving that the sole planet was home to heavily-entrenched criminal cartels, Dominion Command called upon their allies for assistance in emancipating the oppressed population of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] spearheaded Operation Kowak, publicly known as the [[Battle for Kowak]], and led a large Rebel coalition to successfully liberate [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] from the criminal warlords and protect the system from potential opportunists. The coalition consisted of [[The Antarian Rangers]], [[-ARK-]], [[DOM Arsenal]], [[The Exchange]], [[Grand Duchy of Froz]], [[The Invid Order]], [[Jedi Order]], [[Mando'ade]], [[Rebel_Alliance_(Year_21)|Rebel Alliance]], [[The Resistance]], [[Rogue Squadron]], [[Stryker Military Services]], [[Ternion Corps]], and [[TIEFE]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] issued a public travel advisory on Day 332<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46276 Kowak System Travel Restriction (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 332)]</ref>, claiming control of the system and promising military action against potential invaders. Throughout the operation, the Rebel coalition continuously shipped in infantry battalions, thousands of starfighters, dozens of corvettes, and powerful capital warships such [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] and Mon Calamari Star Cruisers. [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] was fully secured on Day 337<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46293 Dominion Liberates the Kowak System (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 339)]</ref>, leading to the scaling down of the coalition's operations during the following weeks.

: "''I'm just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe.''"
Tomas is a [[Hapan]] [[Category:Males|male]] of standard build standing 1.8 meters in height, rather unimposing and disarming in appearance. Despite being born in Year 55 ([[BCGT]]) and being more than seventy years old, his physical body is approximately three decades younger due to the years spent in suspended animation. Prior to skin replacement, his torso had worn a half-lifetime of scars from years spent training and fighting. Very rarely will he shed the protection of his custom-forged set of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=69 heavy battle armour] and [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=70 helmet]. A [[DLT-20a]] blaster rifle hangs on his back, held by a sling around his torso, while a pair of lightsabers hang off of his belt which also conceals the blade of a sheathed knife. To supplement the blaster's mid-range capabilities, Cuinn carries a pair of modified [[ELG-3A]] blasters for closer engagements, one strapped to his left thigh and the other on the rear of his belt.

===Cybernetics===
: "''He is a Borg who died last night. You know the term, I'm sure. Half human…half mechanical droid. Yet the man half of him had a soul, or so my faith believes.''"
Due to his extensive cybernetic implants, he could easily be classified as more cyborg than anything else. Unusually, the majority of these cybernetics are not enhancements but replacements for the physical damage received from events in Cuinn's past. The dermis and epidermis of his chest have been permanently supplanted with synthskin due to extensive second-degree burns and blunt impact trauma. A Lornan implant, the exact model number unknown, resides on his brain stem to regulate the electrical currents in his body while basic ear augmentations have been installed to generate a standard level of hearing. A pair of automated lungs draws oxygen in place of the discarded originals. Military-grade optical implants with customized, commercial-grade software replaced his damaged-beyond-repair eyes, though their only benefit over standard vision is a slight increase in night vision. Most of Cuinn's joints have been augmented with durasteel pins for added durability, albeit at the cost of their overall ranges of motion. The only cybernetic that could fairly be classified as an enhancement would be his custom-engineered arms. The engineering standards and design specifications are not known outside of a small, trusted circle, though public reports suggest that his arm strength and muscular endurance is much greater than it naturally should be.

===Trading Career===
: "''The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.''"
Tomas o`Cuinn is one of the most well-known and successful traders in the galaxy. His trading career began with [http://market.centrepointstation.com/details.php?lid=208519 the sale] of a [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Light_Freighters&ID=167 Nu-Class Attack Shuttle], which was gifted to him, to Leah Asalah on the 331st day of [[Year 13]] ([[CGT]]). He immediately adopted a profit-based business model and used the liquid capital from his initial sale to jump-start a starship trafficking business, purchasing derelict vessels for a fraction of their value and restoring them for profitable resale. Since then, his resale business has reportedly earned him billions of credits in net profit, though the early numbers are presumably inflated due to the widely-fluctuating market value of starships and his assignment from [[Black Sun]] to sell off [[The_Guild_Bank|The Guild Bank's]] assets in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). According to public rumor, his largest and most profitable transaction was his sale of controlling stake in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to [[Black Sun]] in exchange for their ownership of the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] and [[Homon (System)|Homon]] star systems, though no public records of trade have been discovered for this transaction. On the 217th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged his status as a reputable businessman in order to steal twenty billion credits from the [[Aurodium Legion]], likely the largest trade theft on known galactic record.

===Armor & Armament===
: "''My armor insures my victory in hand-to-hand combat.''"
Throughout most of his life, Tomas wore Mandalorian-style armour made from duraplast or durasteel. In [[Year 26]], he was able to acquire an ancient set of beskar armor
Though heavily outfitted, Cuinn believes in the value of allies and, as such, has cultivated a highly cohesive unit of veteran [[Abyssin]] soldiers, twelve-strong, that work closely with him on various missions. His personal [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Military&ID=7 Droideka], nicknamed Ver'gebuir, is his constant companion and bodyguard regardless of location. Due to his age, Tomas' physical dexterity and speed have declined and, as a result, has come to rely on his allies, heavy armour, and cunning to make up the difference.

===A Matter of Race (Metamorphosis Plague)===
: "''Well let's have a look at you. Hmm. Biped. More or less symmetrical. Far less hair than the last one. Opposable digits. Mostly water hey?''"
It is unknown whether Cuinn was personally affected when the [[Metamorphosis Plague]] raged across the galaxy in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). However, numerous reports from routine security scans have since surfaced with varying results in regards to his DNA. These conflicting scans, all between [[Year 14]] and [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), have classified him as [[Amani]], [[Anx]], [[Anzati]], Chagrian, Codru-Ji, [[Diathim]], [[Gotal]], [[Kaleesh]], Kushiban, [[Mirialan]], Vurk, and [[Whiphid]]. While his physical appearance is obviously that of a [[Human]] male, Tomas has said simply that he was injected with an experimental DNA scrambler while working as an operative for [[Black Sun|Black Watch]], the purpose of which was to mask his identity from enemy detection and prevent collection and/or manipulation of his DNA. While this claim isn't likely to be proven anytime soon, there are a number of rumors in circulation about Cuinn's actual race, the most interesting of which suggests that he is actually [[Clawdite]]. He has dismissed these rumors as silliness, publicly maintaining that he is simply a true-born [[Human]] of [[Hapan]] ancestry. At any point, some passive scan data has suggested that Tomas is actually more cybernetic than flesh, prompting further theories that he no longer fits into the confines of any one race - unless that race is cyborg.

The '''Battle for Kowak''', also known as Operation Kowak, was the liberation of the planet Kowak from the criminal elements governing it by a large Rebel coalition. The operation officially lasted six days from Day 331 to 337 of [[Year 22]], though clean up operations continued through Day 339 and the establishment of a new civilian government extended further. The Battle for Kowak became one of the most extensive operations in Rebellion history, with more than a dozen groups committing manpower and resources to the campaign.

=Events of Battle=
Early on Day 331, merchant vessels operating near the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system intercepted urgent cries for help from somewhere deep in the [[Sevetta]] sector. These messages were relayed to the [[Blue Star Dominion]], the governing body in the sector, who dispatched reconnaissance teams throughout the Sevetta's uncharted regions to search for the signal's origin. That evening (local time), Dominion Warden Pursh Greene discovered the [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] system in a [[StarSpeeder 3000]] and sent the astronavigation data back to Dominion headquarters, opening Kowak to greater galactic travel. Pursh's team was able to make contact with the originators of the distress call who described a dire situation on the planet's surface. Like many planets in the deep [[Outer Rim]], Kowak was a neglected world; its location was first described by explorers centuries ago, but it was lost in the shuffle of the nearly-constant discovery of new worlds and the growing prosperity in the [[Core Worlds]]. By the modern era, Kowak found itself far off from popular trade routes and saw little intersystem travel or trade. With no allies and little in the way of infrastructure or defense forces, Kowak was an easy target for various criminal cartels that plagued the region and wanted a base of operations beyond the arm of the law.

Greene's attempts to land were met with heavy arms fire and ordinance, forcing her to abort and withdraw to a safe distance from the planet while relaying her findings to the Dominion. Back in Woldona, Marshal Cedron Tryonel reviewed the preliminary reports and made the decision to call in allies to ensure they could not only swiftly handle the situation on Kowak, but also shield the system from potential incursion from opportunists who might attempt to pillage the planet once its location became more widely known. Tryonel made calls to the Dominion's allies in the Rebellion and a coalition was formed to liberate Kowak. Just hours later, vanguard forces from the Dominion and [[The Exchange]] arrived, placing a travel restriction on the system to warn outside forces against intervening in the operation. Within twenty-four hours of the vanguard's arrival, additional forces began arriving from other allied groups; the various commanders met aboard the Dominion's [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] ''[[Bastion|BSD Bastion]]'' to plan their campaign. Dropships with starfighter escorts deployed from the rapidly-growing coalition fleet, with many units using equipment and ships locally supplied by the Dominion or [[The Resistance]] until their own could arrive. In the chaos of the assembling fleets and rapidly-changing situation, a [[C-3 Passenger Liner]] registered to Smugglers Incorporated and an unknown YT-series light freighter both attempted to enter the system, but were intercepted by Rebel fighter squadrons and escorted away without incident.

On the ground, the situation was brutal; while coalition forces had superior training and equipment on hand, they were heavily outnumbered during the first few days while assaulting fortified positions. The various planetary militias controlled by the criminal gangs and their enforcers were heavily entrenched and proved ferocious adversaries. The planet's minimal development had also resulted in an overabundance of local wildlife with overaggressive tendencies. It took two standard days of fighting for the ground forces led by Dominion Aribter [[Kara DuMonte]] to secure a safe landing zone on the planet. The Dominion led the first wave of attacks in the southern hemisphere, while the Exchange and the Resistance launched nearby assaults soon after. Engineering teams were able to establish fortifications and a command post for the coalition, which would direct combat operations throughout the southern hemisphere. Given the difficulty of fighting both aquatic creatures and amphibious pirate forces, naval warfare was delegated to the [[DOM Arsenal]] and their specialized marine commandos.

On Day 333, the [[Void Wolves]] arm of the terrorist [[Zann Consortium]] announced to the galaxy that it was in touch with and providing support to the Kowakian cartels. However, no evidence was ever uncovered linking the Void Wolves to the various gangs and enterprises on Kowak, and the nature of their support remains a mystery. Ultimately, any alleged support was eventually proven to be of little effect as the tide quickly turned against the cartels and the planet was secured by Rebel forces.

By Day 334, the coalition fleet had organized itself under the command of Dominion Arbiter [[Kaze Zill]] and established patrols of both the system and outlying coordinates around the clock. Nearby asteroid fields were scouted for lurking pirates and an array of satellites were placed to monitor the entire system for incursion. Late on Day 334, the final incursion into the system occurred when the ''Retribution'', a Crusader-class corvette registered to [[Spectre]], arrived and set course for planetary orbit. Unresponsive to direct hails and warnings, the ship was assumed to be flying on autopilot or its captain was undeterred by the allied fleet. A squadron of A-wings commanded by [[Bram Dupol]] of The Resistance fired warning shots across the corvette's bow, which swiftly changed course and departed the system.

Hour by hour throughout the operation, allied ships arrived in Kowak carrying additional starships, personnel, and equipment from more than a dozen Rebel groups. These reinforcements quickly changed the situation on the ground; now, with the numerical advantage in many instances, coalition forces combed through Kowak's dense jungles and coordinated with bombers and fighter craft for air support as, one-by-one, the cartel strongholds fell. By Day 337, the Rebel coalition had eliminated or captured the last of the criminal warlords; Marshal [[Tomas o`Cuinn]] declared a victorious outcome and an end to formal operations. Fighting continued in the more remote regions through Day 339 when [[The Resistance]] and the other allies began to establish plans to withdraw and depart, leaving the Dominion to work with the local population and establish a government of their own.

=Behind the Scenes=
OOC: The Battle for Kowak was a massive multi-faction operation led by the Blue Star Dominion and featured 15 total Rebellion-aligned faction groups who contributed 97 total players to the campaign. Kowak became the first system to feature both ground and space Player vs Player combat in the game. Additional game-wide changes were implemented because of and during Kowak, including aggressive behavior for bandits/creatures and requiring a planetary grid to be cleared of all NPC enemies before allowing a city slab to be created. Additionally, horizontal travel for ships was disabled on the planetary surface, identical to Derra. The coordinates for the Kowak system were accidentally leaked with the addition of the [https://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Tiny&ID=458 Kowakian Monkey-Lizard] creature, and the system was manually revealed to the galaxy shortly after arrival of the first player, bypassing the typical 7-day reveal timer for hidden systems.

The Battle of Hosnian, also known as Operation Swiftsure in the [[Galactic Empire]] and Operation Urgent Fury in the [[New Republic]], was a major battle in the ongoing [[Second Galactic Civil War]] in which the [[Galactic Empire]] faced off against both the [[New Republic]] and a large number of independent forces for control of the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system. The resulting conflict would prove to be one of the largest and bloodiest battles of the civil war in recent memory, with an estimated tens of thousands of lives lost and the capture of numerous high profile individuals and several [[Imperial]] officers.

==History==
The [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system was initially discovered on the 188th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), allegedly by [[Kellen Deming]], though he failed to realize that the system did not yet exist on his star charts. He quickly departed, but not before his ship recorded the existence of the system and, one standard week later, it was revealed to the galaxy when his navigation computer synced with the network of a public starport. On Day 195, the existence of the untouched system was revealed when the coordinates were added to every available star chart in the galaxy, starting a race to secure land rights and colonize the new star system.

The [[Galactic Empire]] broadcast a proclamation across the galaxy on the 197th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), declaring the [[Byblos (Sector)|Byblos]] sector [[Imperial]] territory under the stewardship of Grand Moff [[Icarus Carinae]]<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=42490 Imperial Proclamation - Hosnian System]</ref>. The [[Galactic Empire|Empire]] threatened criminal prosecution against all who attempted to stake a claim in the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system and announced the dispatch of [[Imperial]] military forces to enforce its own claim. Despite, and in some cases, directly because of the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] broadcast, numerous individuals and organizations set course for [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] in an attempt to claim their own land rights and potentially profit from selling them to any who would pay.

The [[New Republic]] broadcast a report on the 240th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]) explaining how both Galactic Alliance and Non-Alliance forces continued to oppose the [[Imperial Union]] in the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system.<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=42621 Perseverance And Perspective Until Victory]</ref>. The [[New Republic]]'s full-scale military operation was named 'Operation Urgent Fury'. Just one day earlier, however, the [[Galactic Empire|Empire]] had seized control of [[Cardota]] and the [[New Republic]] broadcast acknowledged that the fight was far from over. One week later, [[Lahasa Fy]]'s news agency published an article on the number and status of military officers held captive.<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=42628 Hosnian Honor - A Perspective on Captivity and the Hosnian Legal System]</ref>. The article was not substantiated by official reports of the parties involved.

While no official date exists for the end of the battle, the [[Galactic Empire]] internally announced victory and the scaling-down of its operations in the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system around the 269th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]). By the time [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]) started, the [[Galactic Empire|Empire]] had maintained a secure hold over the system for approximately six months via the worlds of Cardota, Hosnian Prime, and Raysho, while the [[New Republic]] remained entrenched in its holdings on Hosnian, Courtsilius, and Hosnian Companion. As a result of the battle, the [[Faerytail Family]] became a permanent member of the [[Imperial Union]] due to the assistance they provided to the [[Galactic Empire]] throughout the conflict.

The Battle of Gazaan was a minor battle that took place on the planet of Gazaan near the [[Derra|Derra system]]. The [[Zann Consortium]] launched an invasion of the planet with the intent of hindering the Rebellion's presence in the sector, while Rebel forces mobilized to protect and evacuate the civilian population. The Consortium amassed a force of 6,000 mercenaries and 2,000 droids while Rebel forces were estimated at over 9,000 in combined strength by the end of the war.

==History==
The Battle of Gazaan was a [[Year 22]] conflict that took place in the small world of Gazaan in the [[Kira CW]] sector that lasted approximately three weeks. Among the Rebel groups that participated were the [[Rebel Alliance]], [[Blue Star Dominion]], [[Sanctuary Prime]], [[Rogue Squadron]], DOM Trading Company, and [[Stryker Military Services]]. Zann Consortium's forces included the [[Dark Star Hellions]], [[Crimson Dawn]], and the [[Void Wolves]].

===Causes===
The peace treaty between the Zann Consortium and [[New Republic]] ended in [[Year 20]] after then-Director of New Republic Intelligence Adam Hughes led an operation against the Consortium that resulted in Adam’s capture and subsequent execution by Zann's Defilers. The introduction of the [[Blue Star Dominion]], a long-time enemy of the Zann consortium, into the Rebellion further fueled the already-tense relations between Zann and the Rebel Alliance. In [[Year 22]], Zann intelligence intercepted communications between Rebel groups which allowed the criminal consortium to locate a Rebel garrison located on the planet Gazaan. It is believed that Zann's leadership considered an attack on Gazaan as an opportunity to cripple the Rebellion's ground capabilities.

==General features of the war==
===Rebel unpreparedness for war===
Zann officials claimed several times that Rebel troops were not equipped with weapons and were used as shields to protect armed troops, and that Rebel forces were untrained and unprepared for different types of combat. Zann claimed the Rebels were equipped for long-range engagements, allowing Zann forces to exploit their lack of close quarters capability. Zann also claimed that communication among Rebels members proved to be an issue as attacks were not well-coordinated until the last days of the battle, when improvements in communication allowed them to launch a final but ultimately unsuccessful assault.

===Mobilization and Equipment===
Both the Rebel and Consortium forces relied on large dropships for troop deployment, along with some vehicles for rapid transport. Civilian witnesses describe Sabaoth Destroyers used as the Rebel's primary as their main means of deployment, while Consortium forces reportedly used Sphyrna-class Corvettes, Arquitens-class Light Cruisers, and Hammerhead-class Cruisers. Rebel troops were equipped primarily with rebel trooper and battle armor, E-11b rifles and X-45 sniper rifles with the exception of several squads equipped with heavy battle armor. Consortium mercenary units were equipped with battle armor and bowcasters as their primary kit, with amban sniper rifles granted to marksman units. The Rogue Squadron withdrew its two Ground Liaison Officers on Day 285.

===Tactics===
Rebel forces reportedly employed guerrilla tactics throughout the war, though launched a massive ground assault during the final days of the battle. Consortium forces reportedly employed a "charge-style" and "planned attack warfare, though Rebels later defined this as simply massing large numbers of mercenaries whenever possible.

==Casualties==
The Rebellion's losses reportedly consisted of over 2,500 troopers, around 270 droids, and 1 Rathar, while 60 officers and an unknown number of troopers were injured. The Consortium's losses reportedly consisted of over 400 mercenaries and over 100 droids, while 12 officers and an unknown number of mercenaries were injured. Zann officials claim that approximately 300,000 civilians died during the war, though this has been disputed by Rebel officials speaking on condition of anonymity.

==Aftermath==
The Zann Consortium declared itself the victor by the battle's end while the Rebellion expressed no public stance on the event. The Zann Consortium consolidated its dominion on the Derra system which resulted in the [[Dark Star Hellions]] presence and temporary control of Derra IV.<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46305 Guild Dispute in Derra ]</ref> Many Gazaan residents fled the planet to seek refuge in near systems.

The Battle for Gazaan was a major battle that took place on a small planet near the Derra system after a Zann Consortium led invasion that aimed at hindering the Rebellions' presence on the sector.
Zann Consortium and its allies managed to amass a force of 6,000 armed mercenaries and 2,000 military droids while the Rebel forces estimates showed numbering over 9,000 in combined strength by the end of the war.

In total the war left between 3,031 soldiers dead, 800 military droids destroyed and 72 injured officers.

==History==
The Battle for Gazaan was a global war that took place in the small world of Gazaan in the Kira DW sector on Year 22 that lasted from day 276 to day 297.
Among the Rebel groups that participated were Rebel Alliance, The Blue Star Dominion, Sanctuary Prime, Rogue Squadron, DOM Trading Company and Stryker Military Services.
Zann Consortium’s participant allies included The Dark Star Hellions, Crimson Dawn and The Void Wolves.
===Causes===
The peace treaty between Zann Consortium and the New Republic ended on day Year 20 after the New Republic Intelligence director Adam Hughes led an operation against the consortium that resulted in Adam’s capture and subsequent execution by Zann Defilers. The introduction of the [[Blue Star Dominion]] (a long-time enemy of the Zann consortium) into the Rebellion further fueled the already tense relations between Zann and the Rebel Alliance.

On Year 22, Zann intelligence operators intercepted communications between Rebel groups which allowed the criminal consortium to locate a rebel garrison located in planet Gazaan. It is believed that Zann’s leadership considered an attack on Gazaan as an opportunity to cripple the Rebellions’ ground capabilities.

==Casualties==
Zann officials claim that approximately 300,000 sentients died during the war, the majority of whom were civilians, making it perhaps the deadliest conflict of the Zann and Rebellion war.

===Military===
The Rebellion suffered 2,579 military deaths, 529 military droids destroyed (several destroyer droids among them), 1 trained Rathar and 60 injured officers.
The Zann Consortium reported 461 military deaths, 271 military droids destroyed and 12 injured commanders on their side.

===Rebel unpreparedness for war===
Zann officials documented several occasions on which rebel troops were not equipped with weapons and were used as sentient shields to protect the armed troops. This led to believe lack of equipment availability on the Rebellions' side.
Rebel forces were mostly untrained and unprepared for different types of combat and were specialized mostly for long range assaults. This allowed Zann forces to easily exploit their lack of short and medium range.
Communication among Rebels members were evidently an issue as Rebel attacks were not well coordinated until the last days of the war when an improvement on communication allowed them to launch a final but unsuccessful assault.

==General features of the war==

===Mobilization and Equipment===
Both Gallactic Alliance and Zann Consortium relied on large drop ships for troop mobilization and some vehicles as well. Civilian witnesses describe rebel Sabaoth Destroyers as their main means of mobilization. Zann Consortium forces used Sphyrna-class Corvettes, Arquitens-class Light Cruisers and Hammerhead-class Cruiser as main means of troop mobilization and air support.
Rebel Alliance and Blue Star Dominion troops were mainly equipped with Rebel trooper and Battle armor, X-45 Sniper Rifle and E-11B Trooper Rifles except for several squads of Heavy Rebel Troopers equipped with Heavy battle armor and X-45 Sniper Rifles.
Zann Consortium mercenary units were equipped with Battle armor and Bowcasters as their main configuration and amban rifles for their sniper units.
The Rogue Squadron withdrew its two Ground Liaison Officers on Year 22 Day 285.

===Tactics===
Due to its nature of global war, Rebel and Zann Consortium forces implemented several warfare tactics to fight each other.
Rebellion forces resorted to guerrilla tactics during most of the war. On the last days of the war, they launched a massive assault that can be labeled as a rapid dominance tactic.
Zann Consortium forces successfully employed a charge style and planned attack warfare during the initial and final days of the war. However, the consortium relied on Ambush attacks during most of the war to counter rebel guerrilla tactics which consisted of segregated attacks on multiple positions.

==Aftermath==
The Zann Consortium declared itself the victor by the end of the war while the Rebellion expressed no public stance on the event.
Zann consortium consolidated its dominion on the Derra system which resulted on the [[Dark Star Hellions]] permanent presence and control of Derra IV.<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46305 Guild Dispute in Derra ]</ref>

Most Gazaan residents fled the planet to seek refuge on near systems.

</table></center>
Per the earliest relevant records, Tomas o`Cuinn, 20 years old, served as the youngest of seventy-five [[Mandalorian]] members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' - ''[[Mando'a]]'' for "Those Who No Longer Exist" - which was formed to train the clone commandos for the [[Galactic Republic]] on the watery world of [[Kamino]] in Year 35 ([[BCGT]]). For close to ten years, Tomas and the other members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' served as training sergeants for the elite clone commandos of the Grand Army. These battle-proven sergeants taught the ten thousand commandos in a variety of ways, including teamwork, infiltration methods, demolition techniques, assassination and much more. Along with imparting their combat prowess and tactical skills, the [[Mandalorian]] trainers also included their cultural customs and way of life, believing it important that the clones know of their heritage - especially since their genetic template was a prominent [[Mandalorian]] - despite objections from the [[Kaminoan|Kaminoans]]. When the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems]] launched attacks against the [[Galactic Republic]] in the Sumitra and Centrality sectors in Year 25 ([[BCGT]]), the previously secret clone troopers were revealed and organized into the Grand Army of the [[Galactic Republic|Republic]]; this newly organized army was immediately deployed in response to the attacks. Thus begins the Clone Wars. With their contract ended, many of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' departed [[Kamino]] and returned to their former lives, though a few remained to train future generations of clones; Tomas was among those who left.

Despite having fulfilled the decade-long training mission, Tomas was far too duty-oriented to take any sort of vacation and, as such, soon accepted a contract on an obscure [[Outer Rim]] [[planet|world]]; the job consisted of a physical security consultation for the relatively unimportant planet's government. A hideout had been recently established in the natural caves of the planet's mountains and had already proved to be a threat as the enforcers of the newly-arrived criminal organization, known as -'''REDACTED'''-, began raiding the lightly-defended towns. The planet's militia was poorly trained and equipped - a far cry from the force required to ensure security and drive the unwanted raiders off of the planet. When the criminal enforcers began to invade and seize control of entire towns, the government sought aid from the [[Galactic Republic]], but, as a non-member, their pleas were all but ignored - largely due to the start of the Clone Wars. When the government, with nowhere else to turn, began offering contracts to mercenaries for their assistance, Tomas o`Cuinn answered the call.

Realizing that a simple consultation was far from sufficient, Tomas renegotiated the contract and set to training the militiamen in combat techniques that would prove effective when harassing a larger and better-equipped force. Over the course of almost a year, the militia learned to operate as small squads capable of rapid movement, using the terrain and darkness of night to engage in unconventional warfare against the overconfident force of organized raiders who, through their shared combat experience and uniquely strict leadership hierarchy, acted almost the same as a conventional army. To demonstrate that their hostile actions would no longer be tolerated and that the militia was capable of hurting them, Tomas instructed them in irregular and psychological warfare such as guerrilla tactics and booby traps. Taught to gather intelligence prior to any operation, the militiamen would strike rapidly at the enemy forces and disappear just as quickly, injuring or killing and sowing confusion among the criminal ranks. Coupling this with strategically-placed booby traps proved effective in decreasing morale and introducing fear into the gang's soldiers, limiting their combat capacity and ending their aggressive advances against the planet's towns.

As Year 23 ([[BCGT]]) rolled around, the criminal force's advance had been effectively stopped, and Tomas switched strategy and worked to turn the militia - now swelling with experience and confidence earned from success - into a highly disciplined and effective military force. Just as the new training regime was beginning, however, -'''REDACTED'''- quietly brought in its heavy hitters along with reinforcements to deal with the planet's unexpected resistance to subjugation. A surprise orbital bombardment on the militia's "hidden" training base caught the unsuspecting Tomas off guard, bringing the entire compound down around him and his trainees. Tomas, mortally-wounded from the structure collapsing on him, was recovered by -'''REDACTED'''- enforcers. With the knowledge that he had been the source of their troubles on the planet, local -'''REDACTED'''- leadership made the decision to keep Tomas alive - only long enough to suffer for his insolence. To this end, his shattered arms were amputated and replaced with basic cybernetic limbs, though they were useless for all but the most basic of tasks. A Lornan implant was installed into his brain to regulate his body's electrical current since it was now incapable of doing such naturally. A cheap ear implant was installed to recover his diminished hearing - they figured he should have to suffer his own screams. His lungs, damaged beyond repair by the chemical asphyxiation and smoke inhalation caused by the bombardment, were removed and replaced with a cybernetic pair. His damaged eyes and other injuries, however, weren't deemed as life-threatening.

After the string of surgeries and a brief stint in a bacta tank, Tomas was deemed fit to undergo an extensive program of systematic torture, attacking a specific area of the body at a time over the course of several months - always fixed up overnight in a bacta tank for the fresh treatment of pain the following day. This regulated torture lasted for two years, until -'''REDACTED'''- leadership decided the expense was no longer worth the continued punishment and opted to turn Cuinn into a trophy, displayed publicly to serve as a visible reminder of what happened to those who crossed them. The most effective process turned out to be carbon-freezing, with the design-intended tibanna gas being replaced with a [[Mandalorian]] named Tomas. He would hang on display for three decades, in the carbon-induced state of suspended animation, until the normal turnover of leadership resulted in his transgressions being forgotten and the outdated carbonite figure being removed and discarded. Due to his already-diminished physical condition, such as his almost non-existent eyesight, the standard effects of long-term suspended animation were barely noticeable, though what damage did occur was minimized by his cybernetic "enhancements" and eventually healed with an impressive amount of bacta when he was finally thawed from his carbonite imprisonment.

==Family. Honour. Profit.==
: "''It is a vast criminal syndicate...its influence felt on every planet from the Core Worlds to the Outer Rim. Black Sun has existed for hundreds of years and embedded itself in the very fiber of the galaxy. The resources at its disposal are almost limitless. The soldiers under its command number in the tens of thousands. The ignorant even call it the most powerful force in the known universe.''"
While it is not public knowledge what happened after his carbonite frame was discarded, Cuinn eventually emerged as an officer for the [[Black Sun]] crime syndicate. While his history with the syndicate was shrouded in secrecy, many of the details have been released since his expulsion from the organization in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). Originally recruited as a small-time enforcer, Tomas quickly worked his way up the ranks by producing results through sheer dedication and a hands-on work style. Most of his earned salary went towards improving his cybernetics, gradually returning the range of physical capabilities he'd enjoyed decades before. Of his career in [[Black Sun]], what is known is that he is a veteran of both the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, constructing homes and jobs for more than one hundred and fifty-five billion civilians and creating over one billion credits in additional monthly revenue for the syndicate. He also fought against the [[United_Rebel_Front|United Rebel Front]] during the Battle of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=5923 Axxila], securing complete control of the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=203 Ciutric Sector]. He also served as the Chief Operating Officer of the (now defunct) [[Hyrotii Corporation]] for some time, providing assistance to his good friend [[Rexan Vyrim]] during a period of increased raw material requirements. Cuinn personally re-wrote the [[Black Sun]] [http://holocron.swcombine.com/wiki/Black_Sun#Code_of_Conduct Code of Conduct], expanding its coverage and refining the format for an increased understanding, along with designing the entire training program that turned inexperienced recruits into knowledgeable and efficient members. He served as the middle ground between the Family Council and junior members, handling various personnel issues and relaying council orders throughout the chain of command. Near the end of his career with the syndicate, Cuinn was the highest-ranking officer and headed up the ("Indoctrination") Recruitment and Training division, while also working as an intelligence officer and senior member of [[Black Sun|Black Watch]].

Shortly after the [[Black Sun]] takeover of [[Xanxus Drol|Xanxus Drol’s]] company, [[The Guild Bank]], in early-to-mid [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]), Cuinn publicly sold off hundreds of the seized assets for vastly reduced prices compared to the market standard at the time. Cuinn's sales, even at reduced pricing, resulted in a net profit of almost two billion galactic credits for [[Black Sun]]. He was rewarded with a portion of the profits and an extra promotion for his role in the affair along with quickly accomplishing the massive amount of additional work without issue. The overwhelming number of sales and unusually low pricing also helped to build his public presence in the trading community.

His proven loyalty and dedicated work ethic were rewarded numerous times by both Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]] and Dark Princess [[Cait Catra]]. Despite a career demanding nothing short of respect, one of [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander von Ismay’s]] initial moves as the Dark Prince usurper was to force Cuinn out of the syndicate on the 354th day of [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander]] followed this by blacklisting and declaring Cuinn an enemy of [[Black Sun]] on the first day of [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]).

==The Opportunity of Gree==
: "''I know you're familiar with the ancient Rakata Infinite Empire. The Gree predate them by eons.''"
Tomas settled in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, accepting a position with the local Gree Enclave government as a security consultant to update the system's defenses from years of neglect. He immediately set himself to designing and overseeing construction on a series of shield networks and anti-orbital weapon platforms on each of the system's planets whilst simultaneously ordering the fabrication of new defensive and early warning space stations along the system's outer perimeter. His efforts eventually led to the founding of the [[Gree Trade Authority]], a multi-billion credit trade and security company that focused on furthering the system's development. He switched his focus toward rebuilding the infrastructure that was suppressed during [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lengthy occupation. Using his knowledge from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, he tasked the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority]] with construction infrastructure on [[Gree IV]], promoting increased immigration, tourism, and intersystem commerce.<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39174 Creating Jobs, Building Lives: Gree Trade Authority Sets Economic Records (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 16 Day 226)]</ref>.

[[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] formed numerous naval fleets to defend the system and ensure the safety of all citizens and visitors; chief among these was the impressive [[Aliit Dael'mor|Dael'mor]] fleet to help deter future attacks, formed around the former [[Black Sun]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial-class]] and [[Victory Star Destroyer|Victory-class]] [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]]. Supporting these fleets was a multi-tiered ring of defensive space stations of varying designs, including the Ataturk-class and Golan models I & II, placed in strategic locations throughout [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Placed along the outer edges of the system, a ring of XQ1-series platforms served as customs checkpoints, an advanced warning system, and the initial line of defense against pirates or other would-be invaders. Each of the platforms was supported by a [[Corona-class frigate|''Corona''-class frigate]] and sheltered two starfighter squadrons - one comprised of [[Y-wing]]s and the other of [[R-41 Starchasers|R-41 starchasers]] - for defense. An [[Imperial]] fleet arrived unexpectedly in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system in mid-[[Year 16]] ([[CGT]]), prompting the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to lock down planetary accesses and deploy its fleets in a defensive perimeter around the planets. The [[Galactic Empire]] had dispatched two [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyers]], three [[Victory Star Destroyer I|Victory I-class Star Destroyers]], and one [[Carrack/S-class Light Cruiser|Carrack/S-class light cruiser]] to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system at the behest and begging of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] Dark Prince, [[Alexander von Ismay]], due to his inability to muster their own [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] for such a show of force. While the [[Imperial]] fleet was certainly impressive, the Golan stations and [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] naval fleets would have been more than enough of a match to defend the system. However, the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] ships maintained a safe distance from [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] perimeter and simply flew reconnaissance sorties with a handful of [[TIE/sr Starfighter|TIE scouts]] whilst an [[Imperial]] Director sent casual threats to Tomas regarding [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] seized [[Star Destroyers]]. Eventually, the Imperial fleet departed, but this event spurred the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to open formal diplomatic relations with the [[New Republic]] and [[Galactic Alliance]]. Tomas knew that the Imperials would return in the future, and in greater number.

After former Underlord [[Alexander von Ismay]] was kicked out of [[Black Sun]] for petty theft and attempted blackmail, Tomas reached out to the new Dark Prince, [[Jeor Knight]], and the Family Council in an effort to quell the hostilities created by [[Alexander von Ismay|Ismay]] years before. Negotiations between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and [[Black Sun]] resulted in improved relations between the groups, as Tomas personally saw to the release of approximately one billion credits worth of [[Black Sun]]-owned vehicles that had been confiscated by [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]]. Dozens of crates containing various equipment owned by the syndicate were also released to a [[Black Sun]] pilot. Forty-two highly-trained operatives in the employ of Vigo and former Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]], and their rare and expensive equipment, were released from custody after years of imprisonment. [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] also publicly supported [[Black Sun]] in the Galactic News System<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39984 Black Sun - A Modern History Lesson (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 17 Day 167)]</ref> when the [[ViskCor News Network]] posted propaganda against the syndicate<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39979 Black Sun's Future in Imperial Union Uncertain (Hacked by Rayus Kestyn on Year 17 Day 166)]</ref>.

Early in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged a [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] employment opportunity to lure the notorious Varro Belle to [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Belle was the inside man in a [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] operation that allowed the capture of over a dozen [[Krath Dynasty]] officers, the impounding of a reported twenty-five hundred restricted starfighters, and the seizure of between twelve and thirty thousand crates of various equipment. Belle personally detained [[Lazarus Kell]], the current Emperor of [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]], during the operation's climax, and stole [[Lazarus Kell|Kell's]] prized lightsaber. The [[Krath Dynasty]] reported their losses two days later, on [[Year 17|17.262]] ([[CGT]])<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40212 Traitors strike from within the Krath (Posted by Ellias Aubec on Year 17 Day 262)]</ref>, and subsequently offered a five hundred million credit reward for his capture. Due to the [[Galactic Alliance]] and [[Krath Dynasty]] desperately wanting to see Varro Belle in cuffs, Tomas offered the criminal employment in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] star system, working construction for the [[Gree Trade Authority]]. Since Belle was a highly wanted criminal, he was desperate in seeking neutral employment in the mostly lawless [[Outer Rim Territories]] - but, as he soon learned, [[Gree (System)|Gree]] does not conform to the loose standards of law enforcement common throughout the region. After a few weeks of building trust, along with directly profiting from his labor, Tomas led a team of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] most experienced soldiers and detained Belle in orbit of the [[Gree IV]] gas giant. While Belle chose to fight back against his arrest, he was quickly overpowered by the cybernetic [[Mandalorian]] supported by an elite squad of [[Abyssin]] troops. A press release was provided to the galaxy on [[Year 18|18.53]] ([[CGT]]), less than twelve hours after his capture<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40566 Gree Press Release: Belles Are Ringing (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 18 Day 53)]</ref>. [[Lazarus Kell]], who had secured his release from [[Imperial Union]] custody and ascended the [[Krath Dynasty]] throne as Emperor, was eager to see Belle extradited from [[Gree (System)|Gree]] to [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]] to answer for his crimes. It was [[Krath Dynasty|Krath's]] Lord Imperator [[Talak Kasra]] that discussed the extradition with [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and, upon the successful negotiation, traveled to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to retrieve the prisoner. After the ordeal was finished, Tomas was overheard as stating that Belle's labor was estimated to have increased the [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree Trade Authority's]] gross monthly income by an approximate ten million credits.

From when the [[Gree Trade Authority]] was founded near the midpoint of [[Year 15]] to early [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree IV]] gas giant was the major investment and development project that consumed the majority of Tomas's time and attention. Under [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] leadership, the [[planet]] had simply served as a mining platform for tibanna gas; under the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority's]] management, however, the mining operations were greatly expanded with an emphasis on worker safety, mining process improvements, and employee morale. With an extensive investment campaign into the equipment and training for every mine worker, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was able to greatly increase the mining operation's size and, with its own investments and the increasing mine profits, extensively develop the system of interlinked platform cities across the gas giant's atmosphere. [[Gree IV]] housed barely one million citizens in [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]), but by [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), more than ten billion individuals would call the gas giant their home - an increase of ten thousand percent. The planet's economy grew with its population and become one of the largest, healthiest, and safest centers for trade and commerce in the [[Outer Rim]]. The success and development of [[Gree IV]] also led to the [[Gree Trade Authority]] being recognized by the [[galaxy]] as the governing entity of the entire [[Gree (Sector)|Gree]] sector, surpassing and replacing the [[Black Sun]] criminal syndicate.

==Command in the Resistance==
: "''So you're with the Resistance?''"
: "''Obviously. Yes I am. I'm with the Resistance, yeah. I am with the Resistance.''"
: "''I've never met a Resistance fighter before.''"
: "''Well this is what we look like, some of us. Others look different.''"
Knowing [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] precarious stance in the heart of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] territory, Tomas had worked in secret to support and ally his conglomerate with the [[New Republic]]. By [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree Trade Authority]] (and it's short-lived successor, the [[Gree Enclave]]) had signed a non-aggression pact with [[The Krath|the Krath]] and an alliance with the [[New Republic]], along with a technology agreement granting tier one access to the latter's technology. Despite this, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was acutely aware of how little a few powerful warships would matter if the [[Galactic Empire]] sent another fleet to their system. Tomas reached out to an old friend, [[The Resistance|Resistance]] Commander and former Deputy Director of [[New Republic|New Republic Intelligence]] Cedron Tryonel, and negotiations began regarding a merger between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and the [[The Resistance|Resistance]]. The result of these talks was the effective closure of the entire [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] conglomerate, with its membership and assets being absorbed into either [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] or the [[The Resistance|Resistance's]] operations.

Knowing that he suddenly had to worry about the entire [[Imperial Union]] along with operating on a galactic scale instead of simply in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, Tomas opened negotiations with Dark Prince [[Jeor Knight]] and Vigo [[Banquo Knox]] of [[Black Sun]] regarding their interest in re-obtaining [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. While negotiations were unforgiving, eventually a deal was struck to exchange Tomas's holdings in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system for [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] control over the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. The 11 billion inhabitants of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] were once again under the control of the crime syndicate, but their return to suffering was not for nothing as the approximate 165 billion civilians in the liberated sectors were suddenly freed from [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] grasp. While Tomas regretted [[Gree (System)|Gree's]] sacrifice, he knew that the liberation of two sectors was an acceptable price to pay. On top of this, galactic analysts quickly estimated [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lost revenue in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors as approximately 2.916 billion credits per year and expected the financial experts of the former [[Gree Trade Authority]] to quickly capitalize on establishing control of the businesses and income streams. Ultimately, Tomas sacrificed the four planets of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] in exchange for eight worlds - his deal cost only a single system and had taken two sectors away from the [[Imperial Union]], removing one of their strongholds in the galactic southeast. The [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector bordered space controlled by the [[New Republic]], [[The Krath|Krath]], and [[The eXiles]] - Tomas's removal of [[Black Sun]] from the sector solved a major security issue for the three [[Galactic Alliance]] groups.

After joining the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on the 85th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas spearheaded a reorganization that created several theaters of operation throughout the galaxy, each overseen by a commander who was tasked with developing and organizing their own staff and sector. Tomas was granted the rank of Theater Commander and command of the Deep Core and Morshdine Theaters, along with the third-in-command position of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and one of their three seats on the [[Galactic Alliance]] Leadership Council. Much of Tomas's work within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] has been withheld from the galactic public, though it is known that he was involved in Operation Unknown Signals, a joint task force between the [[New Republic]], [[The Resistance|Resistance]], and [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]) to respond to several distress calls originating from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=211 Tynna] [[sector]]. The task force flawlessly coordinated a [[sector]]-wide search in an effort to locate the frigates broadcasting their distress and, discovering them consecutively, rapidly dispatched dozens of hostile pirate groups at each of their locations. In the end, the joint operation was able to locate and rescue three of the four troubled [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates while the fourth was seized by the [[The Exchange|Exchange]]. Tomas was credited with just ten bandit kills, though he publicly attributed this to having only a half squadron of [[RZ-1 A-wing interceptor|A-wings]] and having spent the majority of his time flying reconnaissance before and during the combat engagements. As a reward for their aid, the Tynnani Defense Force awarded three [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates to three members of the [[New Republic]] for their individual performance, and two of the three voluntarily transferred their ships to the [[New Republic]]. One frigate was retained by the [[New Republic]] while the second was awarded to the [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] for their efforts; the third, intended for the [[The Resistance|Resistance]], was greedily kept by [[Lahasa Fy]] despite numerous offers of compensation. Tomas took issue with [[Lahasa Fy|Lahasa's]] actions, who had utilized task force intelligence, [[New Republic]] starfighters, and fought alongside pilots from all three groups, yet felt no apparent need to share in his reward; [[Lahasa Fy|Fy]] left the [[New Republic]] not long after.

Eventually, Tomas grew disillusioned with the state of the [[Galactic Alliance]], even after he was appointed to the position of Deputy Secretary-General. The distrust and lack of cooperation between the alliance's member states was a substantial issue in the fight against the [[Imperial Union]], which he had been a member of during his time in [[Black Sun]]. He began harboring resentment towards several member groups for their lack of contribution and activity within the alliance, and two of them had even spoken out strongly against him in his early appointment to the Leadership Council. Unwilling to put his energy into any sort of reform, and knowing it would likely fail due to certain inflexible leaders who predated his time in the alliance by more than a decade, Tomas ultimately decided that his future lay in another direction and resigned his posts both within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and [[Galactic Alliance]] near the end of [[Year 18]]. He had spent just less than a standard year in the positions combined, but felt that he had learned all that he needed to in order to realize that the [[Galactic Alliance|Galactic Alliance's]] fight against [[Imperial]] tyranny was doomed without serious change. After eight months as their third-in-command, Tomas departed the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on good terms on the 325th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]).

==Focusing on the Clan==
: "''I came to tell you that your people can expect to be busy in the next few months. A war is coming.''"
: "''You must be new in this galaxy. There's always a war going on somewhere, always has been, always will be. It's why Mandalorians have never gone out of business.''"
After his departure from the [[Galactic Alliance]], Tomas felt content that he could focus solely on himself and his [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian clan]], [[Dael'mor]], including the clan's holdings in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector. Chief among the required work was the removal of an alarming number of empty skyscrapers and barracks in [[Homon (System)|Homon]], abandoned when [[Black Sun]] had pulled out of the system, which Tomas contracted to [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul Khrog's]] [[Kerdos Company]] for two hundred and thirty million credits. After his project was completed, however, [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul]] disappeared from the [[galaxy]] under mysterious circumstances and the [[Kerdos Company]] suddenly under new management. No evidence has tied Tomas to the disappearance of the ex-[[Morgukai]], though plenty of rumors circulated in the following months. To further develop both of the sectors, Kez Aak's [[Endless Endeavors]] was contracted in a job estimated to be worth over five hundred million credits. Tomas also bankrolled the [[Amitus Corporation]] and acted as their Chief Financial Officer, but departed their organization after only three weeks due to unpublicized reasons.

</table></center>

On the 37th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas visited his closest ally aboard the '''[[Secutor]]''', [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer I|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] and flagship, where he was presented with a gift: a lightsaber with a green blade. Having sought to purchase a lightsaber throughout the galaxy for several years, even negotiating to pay up to five hundred million credits at one point in time, he was ecstatic with the gift given to him by [[Cait Catra]]. The lightsaber formerly belonged to Mladen Phantom, a Dark Jedi that [[Cait Catra|Catra]] had defeated several years prior, and kept as a trophy until it was gifted to Tomas. Although he was not afflicted with the [[force]], Tomas was already an avid swordsman and quickly adapted his melee combat skills to accommodate the lightsaber's unique requirements, such as all of the weight being in the hilt. He began training in Form V with a Djem So specialty, focusing on lightsaber dueling despite the obvious disadvantage he'd have against a force user. Djem So also played into the strength of his cybernetic arms, since the form relies on brute force to overpower an opponent's defense. Despite the avid attempts to train with his lightsaber, Tomas' lack of force sensitivity prevented him from achieving anything more than a basic level of dueling skill likely equivalent to that of a Padawan. Later in the year, Tomas struck a deal with his closest allies that net him a new flagship - the clan's [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] - in exchange for his controlling interests in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector, minus the ecumenopolis Woldona VII.

It was revealed near the beginning of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]) that Tomas had managed to produce more than eight hundred of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] proprietary [[Viper|Viper-class starfighters]] over a ten-month period through their negligence over access to the engineering specifications. The syndicate had failed to remove the blueprints from the shipyards in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system, though an unavoidable backdoor into the shared database system of the shipyards allowed the syndicate to remotely corrupt the engineering data after they realized their mistake. It proved far too late, however, as their error had allowed Tomas to produce more than four billion credits worth of [[Viper|Vipers]], valued on the market at five million credits each at the time of production. The market price for a single [[Viper|Viper-class starfighter]] dropped by fifty percent to two and a half million credits by the midpoint of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), however, after a large secondary supply flooded the market and [[Black Sun]] itself began to sell the fighters, likely in an attempt to both cash in on the demand due to their financial troubles and to create the appearance that the further release of their proprietary technology had barely affected the syndicate.

After the [[War for the Hosnian System]] began on the 195th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas quickly dropped his tasks in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system and set course for [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] in his [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wing interceptor]]. Despite the cramped, two-day trip, he arrived on the 198th day and immediately set to claiming land rights for future sale, securing legal ownership of five grids on [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=6243 Hosnian Prime] at the cost of eighteen million and six hundred thousand credits. He quickly sold the land rights to the [[New Republic]] for one hundred and seventy-five million credits, netting him a quick and tidy profit of just over one hundred and fifty-six million credits, immediately ensuring that the trip would be profitable. Afterward, the tremendous number of individuals and organizations flooding into the system in their own attempts to profit seemed to affect Tomas in a strange way. It was almost as if he could sense the growing number of people with hostile intent and it overwhelmed his senses, refusing to allow him any time to think or concentrate. He lost control of himself over the next several days but eventually snapped out of it, only to realize that he had hunted down and slaughtered more than three hundred sentients across three of the system's planets, cutting them down with his lightsaber as they had attempted to build basic infrastructure for their respective employers - the [[Galactic Empire]], [[Mecrosa]], and Veilhal Nomads. Torn with grief and regret over his actions, he departed the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system and returned to [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]], immediately seeking out a trusted physician to provide a throughout examination and explanation for his loss of control. Even after a substantial number of tests, the doctor simply concluded that one of his cybernetic implants had likely malfunctioned and triggered a psychotic episode.

Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), it somehow slipped into public knowledge that Tomas owned a hidden space station attached to an asteroid deep within [[the Maw]], an unstable and dangerous cluster of black holes located in the [[Kessel]] sector. Rumors surrounding the asteroid hideout suggest that it serves as a high-security prison for dangerous individuals from throughout the galaxy, sent and paid for by governments unable or unwilling to contain or execute the deadly parties. Paid handsomely for housing the risky prisoners, Tomas had ironically named the station ''Shelter'' and entrusted an unknown business associate with managing the prison for him.

==Establishing Sevetta==
Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), the remnants of the [[Gree Trade Authority]] banded together to re-emerge as the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], a collection of companies operating out of the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. Mirroring the former organization of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]], Tomas was appointed as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the conglomerate while each company's leaders became vice presidents and department heads in the overarching organization. [[DefenStar Ltd.]] was established as the flagship company for the conglomerate on [[Year 19|19.323]], [[Golan Arms]] opened on [[Year 19|19.343]], [[LodeCorp Mining]] re-opened on [[Year 20|20.002]], and [[Golan Construction]] was acquired and the [[Zaltin Corporation]] incorporated both on [[Year 20|20.160]] ([[CGT]])

When much of [[Helen Hawk|Helen Hawk's]] holdings were publicly auctioned off in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]) following her apprehension by the [[New Republic]], Tomas leveraged the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] substantial financial power to scoop up an [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter]], an [[MC-60 Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80a Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80b Star Cruiser]], and a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] for an undisclosed number of credits. The [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter|V-wing]] was sold to [[Sirius Cyan]] for five hundred million credits, while the [[MC-60 Star Cruiser|MC-60]] was traded to Robby Rae for a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] and a squadron of [[A/SF-01 B-wing Starfighter|B-wings]]; the destroyer was subsequently resold to Jimmy Roggeman for one and a half billion credits while the B-wings were individually sold to [[Drax Whittler]], Lazarus Grimm, [[Diabolus`ut Persolvo]], and [[Lorenzas Atticus]] for a combined two and three quarter billion credits. The [[MC-80a Star Cruiser|MC-80a]] was sold to [[Lilith Delcroix]] for five billion credits while the [[MC-80b Star Cruiser|MC-80b]] was sold to Esu Kyouto for eight billion credits. The final [[Sabaoth Destroyer]], however, was purchased primarily for the almost six billion credits worth of droids stored aboard which Tomas intended to sell at the next [[Jawa Swap Meet]] in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]). Even with reduced sales pricing of droids due to the increase of supply outweighing market demand, Tomas earned the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] four and a half billion credits of pure net profit from the business venture.

==The Mando'ade==
Although the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] monthly cash flow and net profits year-to-date were both in the billions of credits, Tomas grew disillusioned with running the conglomerate - just as he had with the [[Gree Trade Authority]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]). When he was approached by Mand'alor [[Kai Oryk]] about the formation of a new [[Mandalorian]] government near the mid-point of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas realized that his desire to return to the roots of his culture far outweighed the continued business success he had been pursuing for the past decade. He quietly set to disbanding the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and bringing [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], now under the leadership of his nephew [[Victor o`Cuinn]], under the banner of [[Mando'ade]]. [[DefenStar Ltd.]], [[Golan Construction]], and [[LodeCorp Mining]] were closed, while the [[Zaltin Corporation]] became a nationalized faction of [[Mando'ade]]; [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] assumed ownership and operation of [[Golan Arms]]. The [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] effectively shut its doors on [[Year 20|20.206]] ([[CGT]]) and [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] joined up [[Mando'ade]], with Tomas being granted the rank of Ko'verd and a position on the leadership council.

Tomas withdrew from the public eye and focused on his work within both [[Mando'ade]] and [[Dael'mor]]. Following the defection of [[CorSec]] to The Cooperative in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas purchased critical infrastructure on the world of [https://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=2843 Columus] from Jeff Kronn for a small fortune. In the confusion and aftermath of [[CorSec|CorSec's]] officers betraying their [[Galactic Empire]] masters, Tomas as able to secure the local population's loyalty and immediately sought to sell his holdings and influence for a profit. Soon after, Urkh Malal purchased Tomas' investment, earning the latter a reported two and a half billion credit profit in less than two months.

When the [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]] system was discovered near the end of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas established an allied coalition consisting of three different groups, which set course to the [[Western Reaches]] sector in an attempt to stake their claim. While they arrived barely in time to secure the smallest of land parcels in [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]], itself, they initiated a scouting mission within the sector due to rumors of another untouched system in the area. When they discovered the [[Takodana (System)|Takodana]] system on the 313th day of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), they quickly realize that the [[Trade Federation]] had beaten them there by approximately five days. Despite the head start and their colonization efforts underway, the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] had not yet solidified their grip over the planet and the coalition quickly moved to secure their own land rights on the planet. With the desire to prevent any bloodshed or hostilities with the [[Trade Federation]], Tomas opened negotiations with Duceroy Salamku Derov over the sale of their holdings and the cease of coalition operations on the world. A deal was struck and the coalition walked away with five hundred million credits for their troubles, having handed the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] their land and intel.

==Blue Star Dominion==
At the beginning of [[Year 21]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas decided that it was time for his people to set off on their own again. [[LodeCorp Mining]] was once again established on Day 12 to serve as a front organization for the group's activities, though it would come to grow into something much larger. After the fall of the [[New Republic]], [[LodeCorp Mining|LodeCorp]] established a mutual defense pact with the [[Rebel Alliance]] and re-confirmed its commitment against the [[Imperial Union]], later becoming a founding member of the [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] on Day 127 alongside the [[The Hyporian Commonwealth (Year 20 - Year 21)|Hyporian Commonwealth]], [[Mando'ade]], the [[Rebel Alliance]], and Stryker Military Services. The [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] was a regional defense treaty signed during the War for the Republic to defend the Galactic Southeast from an anticipated [[Imperial Union]] offensive. Despite the concern, [[Imperial Union]] activity was limited to the sectors of the former [[New Republic]] and territory sympathetic to the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] in the northern portions of the [[Outer Rim]].

On the 210th day, the [[Order of the One Sith]] became fractured upon the betrayal of [[Morgan Sathel]] and [[Kaze Zill]], who then turned on each other. [[Kaze Zill|Kaze]] was able to seize control of the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] world of [[Venaari]], which Tomas foresaw an opportunity with and purchased for three billion credits. A depot station orbiting the world was purchased from [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for a hundred and fifty million credits, while operatives were dispatched to bypass and disable the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] leader [[Darin Byrch|Darin Byrch's]] planetary shield network. While the operatives were en route, however, [[Darin Byrch|Darin]] agreed to exchange the shield network for one and a half billion credits - granting Tomas complete control. He was able to negotiate the resale of [[Venaari]] back to [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for eight billion credits, netting Tomas more than three billion credits in profit.

The desire to expand led to the establishment of the [[Blue Star Dominion]] as a sovereign government of the [[Sevetta]] sector and [[Dagu (System)|Dagu]] system on the 21st day of [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). On Day 80, Dominion Command was established to oversee operations and consisted of Cedron Tryonel, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn|Taranjeek o`Cuinn]], and Tomas o`Cuinn.

The [[Blue Star Dominion]] participated in the [[Tolonda Conflict]] led by the [[Jedi Order]] and took part in both the [[Jedi Order|Jedi's]] Operation ROID RAGE and its own Operation Appropriation. Operation Appropriation was the codename for a covert military action conducted by the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion's]] naval and marine forces to seize and destroy numerous ships owned by the [[Sith Imperium]]. With the majority of the Imperium's forces scrambling in response to their late discovery of the [[Jedi Order|Jedi Order's]] Operation ROID RAGE, Dominion Marshal Tomas o`Cuinn quietly outlined a plan with Sith Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau]], an independent operative sympathetic to the rebel cause, to launch a clandestine assault behind enemy lines. Calculating that they had a limited window of opportunity to strike, the Dominion borrowed two local [[Modular Taskforce Cruiser|Modular Taskforce Cruisers]] from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] to bring their total in the [[Tolonda]] sector to three. Two of the cruisers were dispatched to the [[Tamra (System)|Tamra]] system under the commands of Tomas and Taranjeek o`Cuinn while the third was committed to the [[Oshora (System)|Oshora]] system under the command of [[Kaze Zill]]. Each of the warships was manned by several companies of Dominion marines and escorted to the outskirts of their respective target systems by the Dominion Navy, which broke off outside of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] sensor range in an effort to maintain the cruiser's stealth. Transmitting false IFF codes, each cruiser casually made its approach into the respective system and successfully evaded notice by the Sith. In the early hours of the morning on Day 60, Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau|Tau]] transferred the access codes of the entire [[Sith Imperium]] fleet to Dominion Command, signaling execution of the plan. With much of the Imperium's personnel occupied elsewhere, the vessels in the target areas were either manned by only skeleton crews or unmanned entirely. Dominion marines rapidly executed boarding maneuvers on hundreds of ships in the three locations, quietly subduing the confused and quickly overwhelmed crews before they could raise any alarm and captured the bridges. Tractor beams from the cruisers swiftly moved the occupied vessels into their docking bays while others were flown and docked manually. The Dominion successfully seized over three hundred of the Sith Imperium's ships before the transfer of access codes was noticed and a remote reset command was sent to the fleet, prompting a hasty exit from the system for the cruisers amid the confusion and leaving behind a chaotic embarrassment for the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] to wake up to. At least two [[BFF-1 Bulk Freighter|BFF-1 bulk freighters]] were destroyed during the operation, reportedly at the hands of their own crew. An unconfirmed report from across the galaxy in the Ottega system alleged that, at the same time as the Dominion operation, an [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] [[Mammoth-class Heavy Hauler|Mammoth-class heavy hauler]] was mysteriously destroyed by what local authorities described as a remote slicing attack that exploited its fuel line. Analysts throughout the galaxy have since estimated that the Imperium lost a quarter of their entire naval fleet. Many of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] lost vessels were later used as target practice and subsequently destroyed by a Rebel task force deployed to the Petabys Conflict Zone during an unrelated operation.

After the [[Galactic Empire|Galactic Empire's]] triumph over the [[New Republic]] in [[Year 21]], months of subsequent conflict and territorial changes left thousands of outposts abandoned throughout the [[Outer Rim]]. One of these vacated bases, known as Stardew Station, was marked as an unimportant observatory at the edge of the galaxy in low-level [[New Republic]] files, yet no coordinates were included. As the combat being waged between the [[Imperial Union]] and Rebels dragged on, forces from both sides haphazardly uncovered fragments of intelligence that were carelessly secured and sloppily transmitted. The Information Operations Network (ION), a Rebel-developed intelligence tool, frequently intercepted slivers of the relayed data in an attempt to piece together the information as if it were a puzzle. It was through ION that Stardew Station was first flagged as a location of interest in [[Year 22]] due to the unusual personnel assignments prior to the outpost's desertion; the research scientists attached to the station specialized in interstellar navigation, advanced weapons development, metallurgy engineering, and progressive propulsion technologies. After the location of interested was flagged, it became easier for ION to rapidly process future incoming data relevant to that location and, after a few weeks longer, coordinates for Stardew were ascertained - the [[Pelgrin]] sector. A report was automatically generated for review by an analyst, who examined the data and determined that Stardew was worth exploring. A joint task force was formed between two nearby Rebel groups, the [[Blue Star Dominion]] and Stryker Military Services, and dispatched to investigate Stardew Station. Warden [[Kaze Zill]] was deployed to lead a detachment of Dominion Ghosts as the task force's ground unit, while Stryker's Mika Noris commanded a squadron of elite pilots to provide both naval superiority and transportation. Upon arrival at Stardew's coordinates, the task force fell under immediate attack by a coalition of pirate organizations intent on plundering the station's secrets. While his squadron engaged the pirate vessels, Noris skillfully hacked into the station's control systems, disabling the automated defenses and securing the Ghosts an opening to insert into Stardew. The Ghosts advanced through the station, combating the pirate crew who proved limited challenge for the force users and their disciplined troops. Unsupported by the station's defenses that Noris previously disabled, the pirate armada realized heavy casualties to the superior Stryker pilots. Losing contact with their forces inside as the Dominion secured the station, the pirate remnants disengaged and withdrew from Stardew. Stardew Station played host to a classified research and development program for the [[New Republic]]. The scientist's mission was to develop an advanced attack corvette capable of serving as a fleet escort picket ship and long-range patrol craft, along with countering the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] formidable DP-20c gunship. While most of the technological research had been completed and verified, the design team had not yet engineered the actual vessel. As the remnants of the [[New Republic]] were still reforming into the [[Rebel Alliance]] elsewhere in the galaxy, it was determined that completing the development of this ship was best suited to the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] and Stryker. Assisted by ION, research teams led by the Dominion's Marshal Cedron Tryonel and Stryker's Jaria Feri partnered to develop the [[MC-30b Corvette]]. Working prototypes were assembled soon after completion of the design and the vessel was quickly put into service.

Upon investigating distress calls on Day 331 of [[Year 22]], the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] discovered the lost system of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] in their capital sector of [[Sevetta]]. Rapidly perceiving that the sole planet was home to heavily-entrenched criminal cartels, Dominion Command called upon their allies for assistance in emancipating the oppressed population of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] spearheaded Operation Kowak, publicly known as the [[Battle for Kowak]], and led a large Rebel coalition to successfully liberate [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] from the criminal warlords and protect the system from potential opportunists. The coalition consisted of [[The Antarian Rangers]], [[-ARK-]], [[DOM Arsenal]], [[The Exchange]], [[Grand Duchy of Froz]], [[The Invid Order]], [[Jedi Order]], [[Mando'ade]], [[Rebel_Alliance_(Year_21)|Rebel Alliance]], [[The Resistance]], [[Rogue Squadron]], [[Stryker Military Services]], [[Ternion Corps]], and [[TIEFE]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] issued a public travel advisory on Day 332<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46276 Kowak System Travel Restriction (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 332)]</ref>, claiming control of the system and promising military action against potential invaders. Throughout the operation, the Rebel coalition continuously shipped in infantry battalions, thousands of starfighters, dozens of corvettes, and powerful capital warships such [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] and Mon Calamari Star Cruisers. [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] was fully secured on Day 337<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46293 Dominion Liberates the Kowak System (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 339)]</ref>, leading to the scaling down of the coalition's operations during the following weeks.

=Supplemental Information=
===Description===
: "''I'm just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe.''"
Tomas is a [[Hapan]] [[Category:Males|male]] of standard build standing 1.8 meters in height, rather unimposing and disarming in appearance. Despite being born in Year 55 ([[BCGT]]) and being more than seventy years old, his physical body is approximately three decades younger due to the years spent in suspended animation. Prior to skin replacement, his torso had worn a half-lifetime of scars from years spent training and fighting. Very rarely will he shed the protection of his custom-forged set of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=69 heavy battle armour] and [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=70 helmet]. A [[DLT-20a]] blaster rifle hangs on his back, held by a sling around his torso, while a pair of lightsabers hang off of his belt which also conceals the blade of a sheathed knife. To supplement the blaster's mid-range capabilities, Cuinn carries a pair of modified [[ELG-3A]] blasters for closer engagements, one strapped to his left thigh and the other on the rear of his belt.

===Cybernetics===
: "''He is a Borg who died last night. You know the term, I'm sure. Half human…half mechanical droid. Yet the man half of him had a soul, or so my faith believes.''"
Due to his extensive cybernetic implants, he could easily be classified as more cyborg than anything else. Unusually, the majority of these cybernetics are not enhancements but replacements for the physical damage received from events in Cuinn's past. The dermis and epidermis of his chest have been permanently supplanted with synthskin due to extensive second-degree burns and blunt impact trauma. A Lornan implant, the exact model number unknown, resides on his brain stem to regulate the electrical currents in his body while basic ear augmentations have been installed to generate a standard level of hearing. A pair of automated lungs draws oxygen in place of the discarded originals. Military-grade optical implants with customized, commercial-grade software replaced his damaged-beyond-repair eyes, though their only benefit over standard vision is a slight increase in night vision. Most of Cuinn's joints have been augmented with durasteel pins for added durability, albeit at the cost of their overall ranges of motion. The only cybernetic that could fairly be classified as an enhancement would be his custom-engineered arms. The engineering standards and design specifications are not known outside of a small, trusted circle, though public reports suggest that his arm strength and muscular endurance is much greater than it naturally should be.

===Trading Career===
: "''The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.''"
Tomas o`Cuinn is one of the most well-known and successful traders in the galaxy. His trading career began with [http://market.centrepointstation.com/details.php?lid=208519 the sale] of a [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Light_Freighters&ID=167 Nu-Class Attack Shuttle], which was gifted to him, to Leah Asalah on the 331st day of [[Year 13]] ([[CGT]]). He immediately adopted a profit-based business model and used the liquid capital from his initial sale to jump-start a starship trafficking business, purchasing derelict vessels for a fraction of their value and restoring them for profitable resale. Since then, his resale business has reportedly earned him billions of credits in net profit, though the early numbers are presumably inflated due to the widely-fluctuating market value of starships and his assignment from [[Black Sun]] to sell off [[The_Guild_Bank|The Guild Bank's]] assets in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). According to public rumor, his largest and most profitable transaction was his sale of controlling stake in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to [[Black Sun]] in exchange for their ownership of the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] and [[Homon (System)|Homon]] star systems, though no public records of trade have been discovered for this transaction. On the 217th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged his status as a reputable businessman in order to steal twenty billion credits from the [[Aurodium Legion]], likely the largest trade theft on known galactic record.

===Armor & Armament===
: "''My armor insures my victory in hand-to-hand combat.''"
Though heavily outfitted, Cuinn believes in the value of allies and, as such, has cultivated a highly cohesive unit of veteran [[Abyssin]] soldiers, twelve-strong, that work closely with him on various missions. His personal [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Military&ID=7 Droideka], nicknamed Ver'gebuir, is his constant companion and bodyguard regardless of location. Due to his age, Tomas' physical dexterity and speed have declined and, as a result, has come to rely on his allies, heavy armour, and cunning to make up the difference.

===A Matter of Race (Metamorphosis Plague)===
: "''Well let's have a look at you. Hmm. Biped. More or less symmetrical. Far less hair than the last one. Opposable digits. Mostly water hey?''"
It is unknown whether Cuinn was personally affected when the [[Metamorphosis Plague]] raged across the galaxy in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). However, numerous reports from routine security scans have since surfaced with varying results in regards to his DNA. These conflicting scans, all between [[Year 14]] and [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), have classified him as [[Amani]], [[Anx]], [[Anzati]], Chagrian, Codru-Ji, [[Diathim]], [[Gotal]], [[Kaleesh]], Kushiban, [[Mirialan]], Vurk, and [[Whiphid]]. While his physical appearance is obviously that of a [[Human]] male, Tomas has said simply that he was injected with an experimental DNA scrambler while working as an operative for [[Black Sun|Black Watch]], the purpose of which was to mask his identity from enemy detection and prevent collection and/or manipulation of his DNA. While this claim isn't likely to be proven anytime soon, there are a number of rumors in circulation about Cuinn's actual race, the most interesting of which suggests that he is actually [[Clawdite]]. He has dismissed these rumors as silliness, publicly maintaining that he is simply a true-born [[Human]] of [[Hapan]] ancestry. At any point, some passive scan data has suggested that Tomas is actually more cybernetic than flesh, prompting further theories that he no longer fits into the confines of any one race - unless that race is cyborg.

[[Tomas o`Cuinn]] (pronounced /toʊˈmɑːs oʊˈkwɪn/) is a well-known businessman, industrial specialist, and military commander. He is one of three Marshals of the [[Blue Star Dominion]], Waadas'alor of [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], Governor of the [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector, and Patriarch of Clan o`Cuinn. Tomas is best known for founding the [[Gree Trade Authority]], [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and [[Blue Star Dominion]] between [[Year 15]] and [[Year 23]] ([[CGT]]). He originally gained widespread recognition for his highly-advertised trading career along with galactic notoriety for his public position with the [[Black Sun|Black Sun]] crime syndicate before being dismissed from the organization at the end of [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). He has also served as a Theater Commander and third-in-command of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and as Deputy Secretary-General of the [[Galactic Alliance]].

</table></center>
Per the earliest relevant records, Tomas o`Cuinn, 20 years old, served as the youngest of seventy-five [[Mandalorian]] members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' - ''[[Mando'a]]'' for "Those Who No Longer Exist" - which was formed to train the clone commandos for the [[Galactic Republic]] on the watery world of [[Kamino]] in Year 35 ([[BCGT]]). For close to ten years, Tomas and the other members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' served as training sergeants for the elite clone commandos of the Grand Army. These battle-proven sergeants taught the ten thousand commandos in a variety of ways, including teamwork, infiltration methods, demolition techniques, assassination and much more. Along with imparting their combat prowess and tactical skills, the [[Mandalorian]] trainers also included their cultural customs and way of life, believing it important that the clones know of their heritage - especially since their genetic template was a prominent [[Mandalorian]] - despite objections from the [[Kaminoan|Kaminoans]]. When the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems]] launched attacks against the [[Galactic Republic]] in the Sumitra and Centrality sectors in Year 25 ([[BCGT]]), the previously secret clone troopers were revealed and organized into the Grand Army of the [[Galactic Republic|Republic]]; this newly organized army was immediately deployed in response to the attacks. Thus begins the Clone Wars. With their contract ended, many of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' departed [[Kamino]] and returned to their former lives, though a few remained to train future generations of clones; Tomas was among those who left.

Despite having fulfilled the decade-long training mission, Tomas was far too duty-oriented to take any sort of vacation and, as such, soon accepted a contract on an obscure [[Outer Rim]] [[planet|world]]; the job consisted of a physical security consultation for the relatively unimportant planet's government. A hideout had been recently established in the natural caves of the planet's mountains and had already proved to be a threat as the enforcers of the newly-arrived criminal organization, known as -'''REDACTED'''-, began raiding the lightly-defended towns. The planet's militia was poorly trained and equipped - a far cry from the force required to ensure security and drive the unwanted raiders off of the planet. When the criminal enforcers began to invade and seize control of entire towns, the government sought aid from the [[Galactic Republic]], but, as a non-member, their pleas were all but ignored - largely due to the start of the Clone Wars. When the government, with nowhere else to turn, began offering contracts to mercenaries for their assistance, Tomas o`Cuinn answered the call.

Realizing that a simple consultation was far from sufficient, Tomas renegotiated the contract and set to training the militiamen in combat techniques that would prove effective when harassing a larger and better-equipped force. Over the course of almost a year, the militia learned to operate as small squads capable of rapid movement, using the terrain and darkness of night to engage in unconventional warfare against the overconfident force of organized raiders who, through their shared combat experience and uniquely strict leadership hierarchy, acted almost the same as a conventional army. To demonstrate that their hostile actions would no longer be tolerated and that the militia was capable of hurting them, Tomas instructed them in irregular and psychological warfare such as guerrilla tactics and booby traps. Taught to gather intelligence prior to any operation, the militiamen would strike rapidly at the enemy forces and disappear just as quickly, injuring or killing and sowing confusion among the criminal ranks. Coupling this with strategically-placed booby traps proved effective in decreasing morale and introducing fear into the gang's soldiers, limiting their combat capacity and ending their aggressive advances against the planet's towns.

</table></center>

As Year 23 ([[BCGT]]) rolled around, the criminal force's advance had been effectively stopped, and Tomas switched strategy and worked to turn the militia - now swelling with experience and confidence earned from success - into a highly disciplined and effective military force. Just as the new training regime was beginning, however, -'''REDACTED'''- quietly brought in its heavy hitters along with reinforcements to deal with the planet's unexpected resistance to subjugation. A surprise orbital bombardment on the militia's "hidden" training base caught the unsuspecting Tomas off guard, bringing the entire compound down around him and his trainees. Tomas, mortally-wounded from the structure collapsing on him, was recovered by -'''REDACTED'''- enforcers. With the knowledge that he had been the source of their troubles on the planet, local -'''REDACTED'''- leadership made the decision to keep Tomas alive - only long enough to suffer for his insolence. To this end, his shattered arms were amputated and replaced with basic cybernetic limbs, though they were useless for all but the most basic of tasks. A Lornan implant was installed into his brain to regulate his body's electrical current since it was now incapable of doing such naturally. A cheap ear implant was installed to recover his diminished hearing - they figured he should have to suffer his own screams. His lungs, damaged beyond repair by the chemical asphyxiation and smoke inhalation caused by the bombardment, were removed and replaced with a cybernetic pair. His damaged eyes and other injuries, however, weren't deemed as life-threatening.

After the string of surgeries and a brief stint in a bacta tank, Tomas was deemed fit to undergo an extensive program of systematic torture, attacking a specific area of the body at a time over the course of several months - always fixed up overnight in a bacta tank for the fresh treatment of pain the following day. This regulated torture lasted for two years, until -'''REDACTED'''- leadership decided the expense was no longer worth the continued punishment and opted to turn Cuinn into a trophy, displayed publicly to serve as a visible reminder of what happened to those who crossed them. The most effective process turned out to be carbon-freezing, with the design-intended tibanna gas being replaced with a [[Mandalorian]] named Tomas. He would hang on display for three decades, in the carbon-induced state of suspended animation, until the normal turnover of leadership resulted in his transgressions being forgotten and the outdated carbonite figure being removed and discarded. Due to his already-diminished physical condition, such as his almost non-existent eyesight, the standard effects of long-term suspended animation were barely noticeable, though what damage did occur was minimized by his cybernetic "enhancements" and eventually healed with an impressive amount of bacta when he was finally thawed from his carbonite imprisonment.

==Family. Honour. Profit.==
: "''It is a vast criminal syndicate...its influence felt on every planet from the Core Worlds to the Outer Rim. Black Sun has existed for hundreds of years and embedded itself in the very fiber of the galaxy. The resources at its disposal are almost limitless. The soldiers under its command number in the tens of thousands. The ignorant even call it the most powerful force in the known universe.''"
While it is not public knowledge what happened after his carbonite frame was discarded, Cuinn eventually emerged as an officer for the [[Black Sun]] crime syndicate. While his history with the syndicate was shrouded in secrecy, many of the details have been released since his expulsion from the organization in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). Originally recruited as a small-time enforcer, Tomas quickly worked his way up the ranks by producing results through sheer dedication and a hands-on work style. Most of his earned salary went towards improving his cybernetics, gradually returning the range of physical capabilities he'd enjoyed decades before. Of his career in [[Black Sun]], what is known is that he is a veteran of both the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, constructing homes and jobs for more than one hundred and fifty-five billion civilians and creating over one billion credits in additional monthly revenue for the syndicate. He also fought against the [[United_Rebel_Front|United Rebel Front]] during the Battle of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=5923 Axxila], securing complete control of the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=203 Ciutric Sector]. He also served as the Chief Operating Officer of the (now defunct) [[Hyrotii Corporation]] for some time, providing assistance to his good friend [[Rexan Vyrim]] during a period of increased raw material requirements. Cuinn personally re-wrote the [[Black Sun]] [http://holocron.swcombine.com/wiki/Black_Sun#Code_of_Conduct Code of Conduct], expanding its coverage and refining the format for an increased understanding, along with designing the entire training program that turned inexperienced recruits into knowledgeable and efficient members. He served as the middle ground between the Family Council and junior members, handling various personnel issues and relaying council orders throughout the chain of command. Near the end of his career with the syndicate, Cuinn was the highest-ranking officer and headed up the ("Indoctrination") Recruitment and Training division, while also working as an intelligence officer and senior member of [[Black Sun|Black Watch]].

Shortly after the [[Black Sun]] takeover of [[Xanxus Drol|Xanxus Drol’s]] company, [[The Guild Bank]], in early-to-mid [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]), Cuinn publicly sold off hundreds of the seized assets for vastly reduced prices compared to the market standard at the time. Cuinn's sales, even at reduced pricing, resulted in a net profit of almost two billion galactic credits for [[Black Sun]]. He was rewarded with a portion of the profits and an extra promotion for his role in the affair along with quickly accomplishing the massive amount of additional work without issue. The overwhelming number of sales and unusually low pricing also helped to build his public presence in the trading community.

His proven loyalty and dedicated work ethic were rewarded numerous times by both Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]] and Dark Princess [[Cait Catra]]. Despite a career demanding nothing short of respect, one of [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander von Ismay’s]] initial moves as the Dark Prince usurper was to force Cuinn out of the syndicate on the 354th day of [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander]] followed this by blacklisting and declaring Cuinn an enemy of [[Black Sun]] on the first day of [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]).

==The Opportunity of Gree==
: "''I know you're familiar with the ancient Rakata Infinite Empire. The Gree predate them by eons.''"
Tomas settled in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, accepting a position with the local Gree Enclave government as a security consultant to update the system's defenses from years of neglect. He immediately set himself to designing and overseeing construction on a series of shield networks and anti-orbital weapon platforms on each of the system's planets whilst simultaneously ordering the fabrication of new defensive and early warning space stations along the system's outer perimeter. His efforts eventually led to the founding of the [[Gree Trade Authority]], a multi-billion credit trade and security company that focused on furthering the system's development. He switched his focus toward rebuilding the infrastructure that was suppressed during [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lengthy occupation. Using his knowledge from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, he tasked the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority]] with construction infrastructure on [[Gree IV]], promoting increased immigration, tourism, and intersystem commerce.<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39174 Creating Jobs, Building Lives: Gree Trade Authority Sets Economic Records (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 16 Day 226)]</ref>.

[[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] formed numerous naval fleets to defend the system and ensure the safety of all citizens and visitors; chief among these was the impressive [[Aliit Dael'mor|Dael'mor]] fleet to help deter future attacks, formed around the former [[Black Sun]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial-class]] and [[Victory Star Destroyer|Victory-class]] [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]]. Supporting these fleets was a multi-tiered ring of defensive space stations of varying designs, including the Ataturk-class and Golan models I & II, placed in strategic locations throughout [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Placed along the outer edges of the system, a ring of XQ1-series platforms served as customs checkpoints, an advanced warning system, and the initial line of defense against pirates or other would-be invaders. Each of the platforms was supported by a [[Corona-class frigate|''Corona''-class frigate]] and sheltered two starfighter squadrons - one comprised of [[Y-wing]]s and the other of [[R-41 Starchasers|R-41 starchasers]] - for defense. An [[Imperial]] fleet arrived unexpectedly in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system in mid-[[Year 16]] ([[CGT]]), prompting the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to lock down planetary accesses and deploy its fleets in a defensive perimeter around the planets. The [[Galactic Empire]] had dispatched two [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyers]], three [[Victory Star Destroyer I|Victory I-class Star Destroyers]], and one [[Carrack/S-class Light Cruiser|Carrack/S-class light cruiser]] to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system at the behest and begging of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] Dark Prince, [[Alexander von Ismay]], due to his inability to muster their own [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] for such a show of force. While the [[Imperial]] fleet was certainly impressive, the Golan stations and [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] naval fleets would have been more than enough of a match to defend the system. However, the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] ships maintained a safe distance from [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] perimeter and simply flew reconnaissance sorties with a handful of [[TIE/sr Starfighter|TIE scouts]] whilst an [[Imperial]] Director sent casual threats to Tomas regarding [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] seized [[Star Destroyers]]. Eventually, the Imperial fleet departed, but this event spurred the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to open formal diplomatic relations with the [[New Republic]] and [[Galactic Alliance]]. Tomas knew that the Imperials would return in the future, and in greater number.

After former Underlord [[Alexander von Ismay]] was kicked out of [[Black Sun]] for petty theft and attempted blackmail, Tomas reached out to the new Dark Prince, [[Jeor Knight]], and the Family Council in an effort to quell the hostilities created by [[Alexander von Ismay|Ismay]] years before. Negotiations between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and [[Black Sun]] resulted in improved relations between the groups, as Tomas personally saw to the release of approximately one billion credits worth of [[Black Sun]]-owned vehicles that had been confiscated by [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]]. Dozens of crates containing various equipment owned by the syndicate were also released to a [[Black Sun]] pilot. Forty-two highly-trained operatives in the employ of Vigo and former Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]], and their rare and expensive equipment, were released from custody after years of imprisonment. [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] also publicly supported [[Black Sun]] in the Galactic News System<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39984 Black Sun - A Modern History Lesson (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 17 Day 167)]</ref> when the [[ViskCor News Network]] posted propaganda against the syndicate<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39979 Black Sun's Future in Imperial Union Uncertain (Hacked by Rayus Kestyn on Year 17 Day 166)]</ref>.

Early in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged a [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] employment opportunity to lure the notorious Varro Belle to [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Belle was the inside man in a [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] operation that allowed the capture of over a dozen [[Krath Dynasty]] officers, the impounding of a reported twenty-five hundred restricted starfighters, and the seizure of between twelve and thirty thousand crates of various equipment. Belle personally detained [[Lazarus Kell]], the current Emperor of [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]], during the operation's climax, and stole [[Lazarus Kell|Kell's]] prized lightsaber. The [[Krath Dynasty]] reported their losses two days later, on [[Year 17|17.262]] ([[CGT]])<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40212 Traitors strike from within the Krath (Posted by Ellias Aubec on Year 17 Day 262)]</ref>, and subsequently offered a five hundred million credit reward for his capture. Due to the [[Galactic Alliance]] and [[Krath Dynasty]] desperately wanting to see Varro Belle in cuffs, Tomas offered the criminal employment in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] star system, working construction for the [[Gree Trade Authority]]. Since Belle was a highly wanted criminal, he was desperate in seeking neutral employment in the mostly lawless [[Outer Rim Territories]] - but, as he soon learned, [[Gree (System)|Gree]] does not conform to the loose standards of law enforcement common throughout the region. After a few weeks of building trust, along with directly profiting from his labor, Tomas led a team of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] most experienced soldiers and detained Belle in orbit of the [[Gree IV]] gas giant. While Belle chose to fight back against his arrest, he was quickly overpowered by the cybernetic [[Mandalorian]] supported by an elite squad of [[Abyssin]] troops. A press release was provided to the galaxy on [[Year 18|18.53]] ([[CGT]]), less than twelve hours after his capture<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40566 Gree Press Release: Belles Are Ringing (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 18 Day 53)]</ref>. [[Lazarus Kell]], who had secured his release from [[Imperial Union]] custody and ascended the [[Krath Dynasty]] throne as Emperor, was eager to see Belle extradited from [[Gree (System)|Gree]] to [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]] to answer for his crimes. It was [[Krath Dynasty|Krath's]] Lord Imperator [[Talak Kasra]] that discussed the extradition with [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and, upon the successful negotiation, traveled to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to retrieve the prisoner. After the ordeal was finished, Tomas was overheard as stating that Belle's labor was estimated to have increased the [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree Trade Authority's]] gross monthly income by an approximate ten million credits.

From when the [[Gree Trade Authority]] was founded near the midpoint of [[Year 15]] to early [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree IV]] gas giant was the major investment and development project that consumed the majority of Tomas's time and attention. Under [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] leadership, the [[planet]] had simply served as a mining platform for tibanna gas; under the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority's]] management, however, the mining operations were greatly expanded with an emphasis on worker safety, mining process improvements, and employee morale. With an extensive investment campaign into the equipment and training for every mine worker, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was able to greatly increase the mining operation's size and, with its own investments and the increasing mine profits, extensively develop the system of interlinked platform cities across the gas giant's atmosphere. [[Gree IV]] housed barely one million citizens in [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]), but by [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), more than ten billion individuals would call the gas giant their home - an increase of ten thousand percent. The planet's economy grew with its population and become one of the largest, healthiest, and safest centers for trade and commerce in the [[Outer Rim]]. The success and development of [[Gree IV]] also led to the [[Gree Trade Authority]] being recognized by the [[galaxy]] as the governing entity of the entire [[Gree (Sector)|Gree]] sector, surpassing and replacing the [[Black Sun]] criminal syndicate.

==Command in the Resistance==
: "''So you're with the Resistance?''"
: "''Obviously. Yes I am. I'm with the Resistance, yeah. I am with the Resistance.''"
: "''I've never met a Resistance fighter before.''"
: "''Well this is what we look like, some of us. Others look different.''"
Knowing [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] precarious stance in the heart of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] territory, Tomas had worked in secret to support and ally his conglomerate with the [[New Republic]]. By [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree Trade Authority]] (and it's short-lived successor, the [[Gree Enclave]]) had signed a non-aggression pact with [[The Krath|the Krath]] and an alliance with the [[New Republic]], along with a technology agreement granting tier one access to the latter's technology. Despite this, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was acutely aware of how little a few powerful warships would matter if the [[Galactic Empire]] sent another fleet to their system. Tomas reached out to an old friend, [[The Resistance|Resistance]] Commander and former Deputy Director of [[New Republic|New Republic Intelligence]] Cedron Tryonel, and negotiations began regarding a merger between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and the [[The Resistance|Resistance]]. The result of these talks was the effective closure of the entire [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] conglomerate, with its membership and assets being absorbed into either [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] or the [[The Resistance|Resistance's]] operations.

Knowing that he suddenly had to worry about the entire [[Imperial Union]] along with operating on a galactic scale instead of simply in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, Tomas opened negotiations with Dark Prince [[Jeor Knight]] and Vigo [[Banquo Knox]] of [[Black Sun]] regarding their interest in re-obtaining [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. While negotiations were unforgiving, eventually a deal was struck to exchange Tomas's holdings in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system for [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] control over the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. The 11 billion inhabitants of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] were once again under the control of the crime syndicate, but their return to suffering was not for nothing as the approximate 165 billion civilians in the liberated sectors were suddenly freed from [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] grasp. While Tomas regretted [[Gree (System)|Gree's]] sacrifice, he knew that the liberation of two sectors was an acceptable price to pay. On top of this, galactic analysts quickly estimated [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lost revenue in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors as approximately 2.916 billion credits per year and expected the financial experts of the former [[Gree Trade Authority]] to quickly capitalize on establishing control of the businesses and income streams. Ultimately, Tomas sacrificed the four planets of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] in exchange for eight worlds - his deal cost only a single system and had taken two sectors away from the [[Imperial Union]], removing one of their strongholds in the galactic southeast. The [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector bordered space controlled by the [[New Republic]], [[The Krath|Krath]], and [[The eXiles]] - Tomas's removal of [[Black Sun]] from the sector solved a major security issue for the three [[Galactic Alliance]] groups.

After joining the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on the 85th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas spearheaded a reorganization that created several theaters of operation throughout the galaxy, each overseen by a commander who was tasked with developing and organizing their own staff and sector. Tomas was granted the rank of Theater Commander and command of the Deep Core and Morshdine Theaters, along with the third-in-command position of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and one of their three seats on the [[Galactic Alliance]] Leadership Council. Much of Tomas's work within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] has been withheld from the galactic public, though it is known that he was involved in Operation Unknown Signals, a joint task force between the [[New Republic]], [[The Resistance|Resistance]], and [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]) to respond to several distress calls originating from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=211 Tynna] [[sector]]. The task force flawlessly coordinated a [[sector]]-wide search in an effort to locate the frigates broadcasting their distress and, discovering them consecutively, rapidly dispatched dozens of hostile pirate groups at each of their locations. In the end, the joint operation was able to locate and rescue three of the four troubled [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates while the fourth was seized by the [[The Exchange|Exchange]]. Tomas was credited with just ten bandit kills, though he publicly attributed this to having only a half squadron of [[RZ-1 A-wing interceptor|A-wings]] and having spent the majority of his time flying reconnaissance before and during the combat engagements. As a reward for their aid, the Tynnani Defense Force awarded three [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates to three members of the [[New Republic]] for their individual performance, and two of the three voluntarily transferred their ships to the [[New Republic]]. One frigate was retained by the [[New Republic]] while the second was awarded to the [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] for their efforts; the third, intended for the [[The Resistance|Resistance]], was greedily kept by [[Lahasa Fy]] despite numerous offers of compensation. Tomas took issue with [[Lahasa Fy|Lahasa's]] actions, who had utilized task force intelligence, [[New Republic]] starfighters, and fought alongside pilots from all three groups, yet felt no apparent need to share in his reward; [[Lahasa Fy|Fy]] left the [[New Republic]] not long after.

Eventually, Tomas grew disillusioned with the state of the [[Galactic Alliance]], even after he was appointed to the position of Deputy Secretary-General. The distrust and lack of cooperation between the alliance's member states was a substantial issue in the fight against the [[Imperial Union]], which he had been a member of during his time in [[Black Sun]]. He began harboring resentment towards several member groups for their lack of contribution and activity within the alliance, and two of them had even spoken out strongly against him in his early appointment to the Leadership Council. Unwilling to put his energy into any sort of reform, and knowing it would likely fail due to certain inflexible leaders who predated his time in the alliance by more than a decade, Tomas ultimately decided that his future lay in another direction and resigned his posts both within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and [[Galactic Alliance]] near the end of [[Year 18]]. He had spent just less than a standard year in the positions combined, but felt that he had learned all that he needed to in order to realize that the [[Galactic Alliance|Galactic Alliance's]] fight against [[Imperial]] tyranny was doomed without serious change. After eight months as their third-in-command, Tomas departed the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on good terms on the 325th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]).

==Focusing on the Clan==
: "''I came to tell you that your people can expect to be busy in the next few months. A war is coming.''"
: "''You must be new in this galaxy. There's always a war going on somewhere, always has been, always will be. It's why Mandalorians have never gone out of business.''"
After his departure from the [[Galactic Alliance]], Tomas felt content that he could focus solely on himself and his [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian clan]], [[Dael'mor]], including the clan's holdings in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector. Chief among the required work was the removal of an alarming number of empty skyscrapers and barracks in [[Homon (System)|Homon]], abandoned when [[Black Sun]] had pulled out of the system, which Tomas contracted to [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul Khrog's]] [[Kerdos Company]] for two hundred and thirty million credits. After his project was completed, however, [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul]] disappeared from the [[galaxy]] under mysterious circumstances and the [[Kerdos Company]] suddenly under new management. No evidence has tied Tomas to the disappearance of the ex-[[Morgukai]], though plenty of rumors circulated in the following months. To further develop both of the sectors, Kez Aak's [[Endless Endeavors]] was contracted in a job estimated to be worth over five hundred million credits. Tomas also bankrolled the [[Amitus Corporation]] and acted as their Chief Financial Officer, but departed their organization after only three weeks due to unpublicized reasons.

</table></center>

On the 37th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas visited his closest ally aboard the '''[[Secutor]]''', [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer I|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] and flagship, where he was presented with a gift: a lightsaber with a green blade. Having sought to purchase a lightsaber throughout the galaxy for several years, even negotiating to pay up to five hundred million credits at one point in time, he was ecstatic with the gift given to him by [[Cait Catra]]. The lightsaber formerly belonged to Mladen Phantom, a Dark Jedi that [[Cait Catra|Catra]] had defeated several years prior, and kept as a trophy until it was gifted to Tomas. Although he was not afflicted with the [[force]], Tomas was already an avid swordsman and quickly adapted his melee combat skills to accommodate the lightsaber's unique requirements, such as all of the weight being in the hilt. He began training in Form V with a Djem So specialty, focusing on lightsaber dueling despite the obvious disadvantage he'd have against a force user. Djem So also played into the strength of his cybernetic arms, since the form relies on brute force to overpower an opponent's defense. Despite the avid attempts to train with his lightsaber, Tomas' lack of force sensitivity prevented him from achieving anything more than a basic level of dueling skill likely equivalent to that of a Padawan. Later in the year, Tomas struck a deal with his closest allies that net him a new flagship - the clan's [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] - in exchange for his controlling interests in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector, minus the ecumenopolis Woldona VII.

It was revealed near the beginning of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]) that Tomas had managed to produce more than eight hundred of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] proprietary [[Viper|Viper-class starfighters]] over a ten-month period through their negligence over access to the engineering specifications. The syndicate had failed to remove the blueprints from the shipyards in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system, though an unavoidable backdoor into the shared database system of the shipyards allowed the syndicate to remotely corrupt the engineering data after they realized their mistake. It proved far too late, however, as their error had allowed Tomas to produce more than four billion credits worth of [[Viper|Vipers]], valued on the market at five million credits each at the time of production. The market price for a single [[Viper|Viper-class starfighter]] dropped by fifty percent to two and a half million credits by the midpoint of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), however, after a large secondary supply flooded the market and [[Black Sun]] itself began to sell the fighters, likely in an attempt to both cash in on the demand due to their financial troubles and to create the appearance that the further release of their proprietary technology had barely affected the syndicate.

After the [[War for the Hosnian System]] began on the 195th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas quickly dropped his tasks in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system and set course for [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] in his [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wing interceptor]]. Despite the cramped, two-day trip, he arrived on the 198th day and immediately set to claiming land rights for future sale, securing legal ownership of five grids on [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=6243 Hosnian Prime] at the cost of eighteen million and six hundred thousand credits. He quickly sold the land rights to the [[New Republic]] for one hundred and seventy-five million credits, netting him a quick and tidy profit of just over one hundred and fifty-six million credits, immediately ensuring that the trip would be profitable. Afterward, the tremendous number of individuals and organizations flooding into the system in their own attempts to profit seemed to affect Tomas in a strange way. It was almost as if he could sense the growing number of people with hostile intent and it overwhelmed his senses, refusing to allow him any time to think or concentrate. He lost control of himself over the next several days but eventually snapped out of it, only to realize that he had hunted down and slaughtered more than three hundred sentients across three of the system's planets, cutting them down with his lightsaber as they had attempted to build basic infrastructure for their respective employers - the [[Galactic Empire]], [[Mecrosa]], and Veilhal Nomads. Torn with grief and regret over his actions, he departed the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system and returned to [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]], immediately seeking out a trusted physician to provide a throughout examination and explanation for his loss of control. Even after a substantial number of tests, the doctor simply concluded that one of his cybernetic implants had likely malfunctioned and triggered a psychotic episode.

Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), it somehow slipped into public knowledge that Tomas owned a hidden space station attached to an asteroid deep within [[the Maw]], an unstable and dangerous cluster of black holes located in the [[Kessel]] sector. Rumors surrounding the asteroid hideout suggest that it serves as a high-security prison for dangerous individuals from throughout the galaxy, sent and paid for by governments unable or unwilling to contain or execute the deadly parties. Paid handsomely for housing the risky prisoners, Tomas had ironically named the station ''Shelter'' and entrusted an unknown business associate with managing the prison for him.

==Establishing Sevetta==
Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), the remnants of the [[Gree Trade Authority]] banded together to re-emerge as the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], a collection of companies operating out of the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. Mirroring the former organization of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]], Tomas was appointed as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the conglomerate while each company's leaders became vice presidents and department heads in the overarching organization. [[DefenStar Ltd.]] was established as the flagship company for the conglomerate on [[Year 19|19.323]], [[Golan Arms]] opened on [[Year 19|19.343]], [[LodeCorp Mining]] re-opened on [[Year 20|20.002]], and [[Golan Construction]] was acquired and the [[Zaltin Corporation]] incorporated both on [[Year 20|20.160]] ([[CGT]])

When much of [[Helen Hawk|Helen Hawk's]] holdings were publicly auctioned off in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]) following her apprehension by the [[New Republic]], Tomas leveraged the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] substantial financial power to scoop up an [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter]], an [[MC-60 Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80a Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80b Star Cruiser]], and a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] for an undisclosed number of credits. The [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter|V-wing]] was sold to [[Sirius Cyan]] for five hundred million credits, while the [[MC-60 Star Cruiser|MC-60]] was traded to Robby Rae for a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] and a squadron of [[A/SF-01 B-wing Starfighter|B-wings]]; the destroyer was subsequently resold to Jimmy Roggeman for one and a half billion credits while the B-wings were individually sold to [[Drax Whittler]], Lazarus Grimm, [[Diabolus`ut Persolvo]], and [[Lorenzas Atticus]] for a combined two and three quarter billion credits. The [[MC-80a Star Cruiser|MC-80a]] was sold to [[Lilith Delcroix]] for five billion credits while the [[MC-80b Star Cruiser|MC-80b]] was sold to Esu Kyouto for eight billion credits. The final [[Sabaoth Destroyer]], however, was purchased primarily for the almost six billion credits worth of droids stored aboard which Tomas intended to sell at the next [[Jawa Swap Meet]] in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]). Even with reduced sales pricing of droids due to the increase of supply outweighing market demand, Tomas earned the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] four and a half billion credits of pure net profit from the business venture.

==The Mando'ade==
Although the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] monthly cash flow and net profits year-to-date were both in the billions of credits, Tomas grew disillusioned with running the conglomerate - just as he had with the [[Gree Trade Authority]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]). When he was approached by Mand'alor [[Kai Oryk]] about the formation of a new [[Mandalorian]] government near the mid-point of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas realized that his desire to return to the roots of his culture far outweighed the continued business success he had been pursuing for the past decade. He quietly set to disbanding the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and bringing [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], now under the leadership of his nephew [[Victor o`Cuinn]], under the banner of [[Mando'ade]]. [[DefenStar Ltd.]], [[Golan Construction]], and [[LodeCorp Mining]] were closed, while the [[Zaltin Corporation]] became a nationalized faction of [[Mando'ade]]; [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] assumed ownership and operation of [[Golan Arms]]. The [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] effectively shut its doors on [[Year 20|20.206]] ([[CGT]]) and [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] joined up [[Mando'ade]], with Tomas being granted the rank of Ko'verd and a position on the leadership council.

Tomas withdrew from the public eye and focused on his work within both [[Mando'ade]] and [[Dael'mor]]. Following the defection of [[CorSec]] to The Cooperative in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas purchased critical infrastructure on the world of [https://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=2843 Columus] from Jeff Kronn for a small fortune. In the confusion and aftermath of [[CorSec|CorSec's]] officers betraying their [[Galactic Empire]] masters, Tomas as able to secure the local population's loyalty and immediately sought to sell his holdings and influence for a profit. Soon after, Urkh Malal purchased Tomas' investment, earning the latter a reported two and a half billion credit profit in less than two months.

When the [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]] system was discovered near the end of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas established an allied coalition consisting of three different groups, which set course to the [[Western Reaches]] sector in an attempt to stake their claim. While they arrived barely in time to secure the smallest of land parcels in [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]], itself, they initiated a scouting mission within the sector due to rumors of another untouched system in the area. When they discovered the [[Takodana (System)|Takodana]] system on the 313th day of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), they quickly realize that the [[Trade Federation]] had beaten them there by approximately five days. Despite the head start and their colonization efforts underway, the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] had not yet solidified their grip over the planet and the coalition quickly moved to secure their own land rights on the planet. With the desire to prevent any bloodshed or hostilities with the [[Trade Federation]], Tomas opened negotiations with Duceroy Salamku Derov over the sale of their holdings and the cease of coalition operations on the world. A deal was struck and the coalition walked away with five hundred million credits for their troubles, having handed the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] their land and intel.

==Blue Star Dominion==
At the beginning of [[Year 21]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas decided that it was time for his people to set off on their own again. [[LodeCorp Mining]] was once again established on Day 12 to serve as a front organization for the group's activities, though it would come to grow into something much larger. After the fall of the [[New Republic]], [[LodeCorp Mining|LodeCorp]] established a mutual defense pact with the [[Rebel Alliance]] and re-confirmed its commitment against the [[Imperial Union]], later becoming a founding member of the [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] on Day 127 alongside the [[The Hyporian Commonwealth (Year 20 - Year 21)|Hyporian Commonwealth]], [[Mando'ade]], the [[Rebel Alliance]], and Stryker Military Services. The [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] was a regional defense treaty signed during the War for the Republic to defend the Galactic Southeast from an anticipated [[Imperial Union]] offensive. Despite the concern, [[Imperial Union]] activity was limited to the sectors of the former [[New Republic]] and territory sympathetic to the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] in the northern portions of the [[Outer Rim]].

On the 210th day, the [[Order of the One Sith]] became fractured upon the betrayal of [[Morgan Sathel]] and [[Kaze Zill]], who then turned on each other. [[Kaze Zill|Kaze]] was able to seize control of the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] world of [[Venaari]], which Tomas foresaw an opportunity with and purchased for three billion credits. A depot station orbiting the world was purchased from [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for a hundred and fifty million credits, while operatives were dispatched to bypass and disable the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] leader [[Darin Byrch|Darin Byrch's]] planetary shield network. While the operatives were en route, however, [[Darin Byrch|Darin]] agreed to exchange the shield network for one and a half billion credits - granting Tomas complete control. He was able to negotiate the resale of [[Venaari]] back to [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for eight billion credits, netting Tomas more than three billion credits in profit.

The desire to expand led to the establishment of the [[Blue Star Dominion]] as a sovereign government of the [[Sevetta]] sector and [[Dagu (System)|Dagu]] system on the 21st day of [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). On Day 80, Dominion Command was established to oversee operations and consisted of Cedron Tryonel, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn|Taranjeek o`Cuinn]], and Tomas o`Cuinn.

The [[Blue Star Dominion]] participated in the [[Tolonda Conflict]] led by the [[Jedi Order]] and took part in both the [[Jedi Order|Jedi's]] Operation ROID RAGE and its own Operation Appropriation. Operation Appropriation was the codename for a covert military action conducted by the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion's]] naval and marine forces to seize and destroy numerous ships owned by the [[Sith Imperium]]. With the majority of the Imperium's forces scrambling in response to their late discovery of the [[Jedi Order|Jedi Order's]] Operation ROID RAGE, Dominion Marshal Tomas o`Cuinn quietly outlined a plan with Sith Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau]], an independent operative sympathetic to the rebel cause, to launch a clandestine assault behind enemy lines. Calculating that they had a limited window of opportunity to strike, the Dominion borrowed two local [[Modular Taskforce Cruiser|Modular Taskforce Cruisers]] from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] to bring their total in the [[Tolonda]] sector to three. Two of the cruisers were dispatched to the [[Tamra (System)|Tamra]] system under the commands of Tomas and Taranjeek o`Cuinn while the third was committed to the [[Oshora (System)|Oshora]] system under the command of [[Kaze Zill]]. Each of the warships was manned by several companies of Dominion marines and escorted to the outskirts of their respective target systems by the Dominion Navy, which broke off outside of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] sensor range in an effort to maintain the cruiser's stealth. Transmitting false IFF codes, each cruiser casually made its approach into the respective system and successfully evaded notice by the Sith. In the early hours of the morning on Day 60, Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau|Tau]] transferred the access codes of the entire [[Sith Imperium]] fleet to Dominion Command, signaling execution of the plan. With much of the Imperium's personnel occupied elsewhere, the vessels in the target areas were either manned by only skeleton crews or unmanned entirely. Dominion marines rapidly executed boarding maneuvers on hundreds of ships in the three locations, quietly subduing the confused and quickly overwhelmed crews before they could raise any alarm and captured the bridges. Tractor beams from the cruisers swiftly moved the occupied vessels into their docking bays while others were flown and docked manually. The Dominion successfully seized over three hundred of the Sith Imperium's ships before the transfer of access codes was noticed and a remote reset command was sent to the fleet, prompting a hasty exit from the system for the cruisers amid the confusion and leaving behind a chaotic embarrassment for the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] to wake up to. At least two [[BFF-1 Bulk Freighter|BFF-1 bulk freighters]] were destroyed during the operation, reportedly at the hands of their own crew. An unconfirmed report from across the galaxy in the Ottega system alleged that, at the same time as the Dominion operation, an [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] [[Mammoth-class Heavy Hauler|Mammoth-class heavy hauler]] was mysteriously destroyed by what local authorities described as a remote slicing attack that exploited its fuel line. Analysts throughout the galaxy have since estimated that the Imperium lost a quarter of their entire naval fleet. Many of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] lost vessels were later used as target practice and subsequently destroyed by a Rebel task force deployed to the Petabys Conflict Zone during an unrelated operation.

After the [[Galactic Empire|Galactic Empire's]] triumph over the [[New Republic]] in [[Year 21]], months of subsequent conflict and territorial changes left thousands of outposts abandoned throughout the [[Outer Rim]]. One of these vacated bases, known as Stardew Station, was marked as an unimportant observatory at the edge of the galaxy in low-level [[New Republic]] files, yet no coordinates were included. As the combat being waged between the [[Imperial Union]] and Rebels dragged on, forces from both sides haphazardly uncovered fragments of intelligence that were carelessly secured and sloppily transmitted. The Information Operations Network (ION), a Rebel-developed intelligence tool, frequently intercepted slivers of the relayed data in an attempt to piece together the information as if it were a puzzle. It was through ION that Stardew Station was first flagged as a location of interest in [[Year 22]] due to the unusual personnel assignments prior to the outpost's desertion; the research scientists attached to the station specialized in interstellar navigation, advanced weapons development, metallurgy engineering, and progressive propulsion technologies. After the location of interested was flagged, it became easier for ION to rapidly process future incoming data relevant to that location and, after a few weeks longer, coordinates for Stardew were ascertained - the [[Pelgrin]] sector. A report was automatically generated for review by an analyst, who examined the data and determined that Stardew was worth exploring. A joint task force was formed between two nearby Rebel groups, the [[Blue Star Dominion]] and Stryker Military Services, and dispatched to investigate Stardew Station. Warden [[Kaze Zill]] was deployed to lead a detachment of Dominion Ghosts as the task force's ground unit, while Stryker's Mika Noris commanded a squadron of elite pilots to provide both naval superiority and transportation. Upon arrival at Stardew's coordinates, the task force fell under immediate attack by a coalition of pirate organizations intent on plundering the station's secrets. While his squadron engaged the pirate vessels, Noris skillfully hacked into the station's control systems, disabling the automated defenses and securing the Ghosts an opening to insert into Stardew. The Ghosts advanced through the station, combating the pirate crew who proved limited challenge for the force users and their disciplined troops. Unsupported by the station's defenses that Noris previously disabled, the pirate armada realized heavy casualties to the superior Stryker pilots. Losing contact with their forces inside as the Dominion secured the station, the pirate remnants disengaged and withdrew from Stardew. Stardew Station played host to a classified research and development program for the [[New Republic]]. The scientist's mission was to develop an advanced attack corvette capable of serving as a fleet escort picket ship and long-range patrol craft, along with countering the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] formidable DP-20c gunship. While most of the technological research had been completed and verified, the design team had not yet engineered the actual vessel. As the remnants of the [[New Republic]] were still reforming into the [[Rebel Alliance]] elsewhere in the galaxy, it was determined that completing the development of this ship was best suited to the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] and Stryker. Assisted by ION, research teams led by the Dominion's Marshal Cedron Tryonel and Stryker's Jaria Feri partnered to develop the [[MC-30b Corvette]]. Working prototypes were assembled soon after completion of the design and the vessel was quickly put into service.

Upon investigating distress calls on Day 331 of [[Year 22]], the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] discovered the lost system of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] in their capital sector of [[Sevetta]]. Rapidly perceiving that the sole planet was home to heavily-entrenched criminal cartels, Dominion Command called upon their allies for assistance in emancipating the oppressed population of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] spearheaded Operation Kowak, publicly known as the [[Battle for Kowak]], and led a large Rebel coalition to successfully liberate [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] from the criminal warlords and protect the system from potential opportunists. The coalition consisted of [[The Antarian Rangers]], [[-ARK-]], [[DOM Arsenal]], [[The Exchange]], [[Grand Duchy of Froz]], [[The Invid Order]], [[Jedi Order]], [[Mando'ade]], [[Rebel_Alliance_(Year_21)|Rebel Alliance]], [[The Resistance]], [[Rogue Squadron]], [[Stryker Military Services]], [[Ternion Corps]], and [[TIEFE]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] issued a public travel advisory on Day 332<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46276 Kowak System Travel Restriction (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 332)]</ref>, claiming control of the system and promising military action against potential invaders. Throughout the operation, the Rebel coalition continuously shipped in infantry battalions, thousands of starfighters, dozens of corvettes, and powerful capital warships such [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] and Mon Calamari Star Cruisers. [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] was fully secured on Day 337<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46293 Dominion Liberates the Kowak System (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 339)]</ref>, leading to the scaling down of the coalition's operations during the following weeks.

=Supplemental Information=
===Description===
: "''I'm just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe.''"
Tomas is a [[Hapan]] [[Category:Males|male]] of standard build standing 1.8 meters in height, rather unimposing and disarming in appearance. Despite being born in Year 55 ([[BCGT]]) and being more than seventy years old, his physical body is approximately three decades younger due to the years spent in suspended animation. Prior to skin replacement, his torso had worn a half-lifetime of scars from years spent training and fighting. Very rarely will he shed the protection of his custom-forged set of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=69 heavy battle armour] and [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=70 helmet]. A [[DLT-20a]] blaster rifle hangs on his back, held by a sling around his torso, while a pair of lightsabers hang off of his belt which also conceals the blade of a sheathed knife. To supplement the blaster's mid-range capabilities, Cuinn carries a pair of modified [[ELG-3A]] blasters for closer engagements, one strapped to his left thigh and the other on the rear of his belt.

===Cybernetics===
: "''He is a Borg who died last night. You know the term, I'm sure. Half human…half mechanical droid. Yet the man half of him had a soul, or so my faith believes.''"
Due to his extensive cybernetic implants, he could easily be classified as more cyborg than anything else. Unusually, the majority of these cybernetics are not enhancements but replacements for the physical damage received from events in Cuinn's past. The dermis and epidermis of his chest have been permanently supplanted with synthskin due to extensive second-degree burns and blunt impact trauma. A Lornan implant, the exact model number unknown, resides on his brain stem to regulate the electrical currents in his body while basic ear augmentations have been installed to generate a standard level of hearing. A pair of automated lungs draws oxygen in place of the discarded originals. Military-grade optical implants with customized, commercial-grade software replaced his damaged-beyond-repair eyes, though their only benefit over standard vision is a slight increase in night vision. Most of Cuinn's joints have been augmented with durasteel pins for added durability, albeit at the cost of their overall ranges of motion. The only cybernetic that could fairly be classified as an enhancement would be his custom-engineered arms. The engineering standards and design specifications are not known outside of a small, trusted circle, though public reports suggest that his arm strength and muscular endurance is much greater than it naturally should be.

===Trading Career===
: "''The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.''"
Tomas o`Cuinn is one of the most well-known and successful traders in the galaxy. His trading career began with [http://market.centrepointstation.com/details.php?lid=208519 the sale] of a [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Light_Freighters&ID=167 Nu-Class Attack Shuttle], which was gifted to him, to Leah Asalah on the 331st day of [[Year 13]] ([[CGT]]). He immediately adopted a profit-based business model and used the liquid capital from his initial sale to jump-start a starship trafficking business, purchasing derelict vessels for a fraction of their value and restoring them for profitable resale. Since then, his resale business has reportedly earned him billions of credits in net profit, though the early numbers are presumably inflated due to the widely-fluctuating market value of starships and his assignment from [[Black Sun]] to sell off [[The_Guild_Bank|The Guild Bank's]] assets in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). According to public rumor, his largest and most profitable transaction was his sale of controlling stake in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to [[Black Sun]] in exchange for their ownership of the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] and [[Homon (System)|Homon]] star systems, though no public records of trade have been discovered for this transaction. On the 217th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged his status as a reputable businessman in order to steal twenty billion credits from the [[Aurodium Legion]], likely the largest trade theft on known galactic record.

===Armor & Armament===
: "''My armor insures my victory in hand-to-hand combat.''"
Though heavily outfitted, Cuinn believes in the value of allies and, as such, has cultivated a highly cohesive unit of veteran [[Abyssin]] soldiers, twelve-strong, that work closely with him on various missions. His personal [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Military&ID=7 Droideka], nicknamed Ver'gebuir, is his constant companion and bodyguard regardless of location. Due to his age, Tomas' physical dexterity and speed have declined and, as a result, has come to rely on his allies, heavy armour, and cunning to make up the difference.

===A Matter of Race (Metamorphosis Plague)===
: "''Well let's have a look at you. Hmm. Biped. More or less symmetrical. Far less hair than the last one. Opposable digits. Mostly water hey?''"
It is unknown whether Cuinn was personally affected when the [[Metamorphosis Plague]] raged across the galaxy in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). However, numerous reports from routine security scans have since surfaced with varying results in regards to his DNA. These conflicting scans, all between [[Year 14]] and [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), have classified him as [[Amani]], [[Anx]], [[Anzati]], Chagrian, Codru-Ji, [[Diathim]], [[Gotal]], [[Kaleesh]], Kushiban, [[Mirialan]], Vurk, and [[Whiphid]]. While his physical appearance is obviously that of a [[Human]] male, Tomas has said simply that he was injected with an experimental DNA scrambler while working as an operative for [[Black Sun|Black Watch]], the purpose of which was to mask his identity from enemy detection and prevent collection and/or manipulation of his DNA. While this claim isn't likely to be proven anytime soon, there are a number of rumors in circulation about Cuinn's actual race, the most interesting of which suggests that he is actually [[Clawdite]]. He has dismissed these rumors as silliness, publicly maintaining that he is simply a true-born [[Human]] of [[Hapan]] ancestry. At any point, some passive scan data has suggested that Tomas is actually more cybernetic than flesh, prompting further theories that he no longer fits into the confines of any one race - unless that race is cyborg.

[[Tomas o`Cuinn]] (pronounced /toʊˈmɑːs oʊˈkwɪn/) is a well-known businessman, industrial specialist, and military commander. He is one of three Marshals of the [[Blue Star Dominion]], Waadas'alor of [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], Governor of the [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector, and Patriarch of Clan o`Cuinn. Tomas is best known for founding the [[Gree Trade Authority]], [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and [[Blue Star Dominion]] between [[Year 15]] and [[Year 23]] ([[CGT]]). He originally gained widespread recognition for his highly-advertised trading career along with galactic notoriety for his public position with the [[Black Sun|Black Sun]] crime syndicate before being dismissed from the organization at the end of [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). He has also served as a Theater Commander and third-in-command of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and as Deputy Secretary-General of the [[Galactic Alliance]].

<td><center>Tomas, left, training the clone troopers on [[Kamino]] circa Year 30 ([[BCGT]])</center></td>

</table></center>
Per the earliest relevant records, Tomas o`Cuinn, 20 years old, served as the youngest of seventy-five [[Mandalorian]] members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' - ''[[Mando'a]]'' for "Those Who No Longer Exist" - which was formed to train the clone commandos for the [[Galactic Republic]] on the watery world of [[Kamino]] in Year 35 ([[BCGT]]). For close to ten years, Tomas and the other members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' served as training sergeants for the elite clone commandos of the Grand Army. These battle-proven sergeants taught the ten thousand commandos in a variety of ways, including teamwork, infiltration methods, demolition techniques, assassination and much more. Along with imparting their combat prowess and tactical skills, the [[Mandalorian]] trainers also included their cultural customs and way of life, believing it important that the clones know of their heritage - especially since their genetic template was a prominent [[Mandalorian]] - despite objections from the [[Kaminoan|Kaminoans]]. When the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems]] launched attacks against the [[Galactic Republic]] in the Sumitra and Centrality sectors in Year 25 ([[BCGT]]), the previously secret clone troopers were revealed and organized into the Grand Army of the [[Galactic Republic|Republic]]; this newly organized army was immediately deployed in response to the attacks. Thus begins the Clone Wars. With their contract ended, many of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' departed [[Kamino]] and returned to their former lives, though a few remained to train future generations of clones; Tomas was among those who left.

Despite having fulfilled the decade-long training mission, Tomas was far too duty-oriented to take any sort of vacation and, as such, soon accepted a contract on an obscure [[Outer Rim]] [[planet|world]]; the job consisted of a physical security consultation for the relatively unimportant planet's government. A hideout had been recently established in the natural caves of the planet's mountains and had already proved to be a threat as the enforcers of the newly-arrived criminal organization, known as -'''REDACTED'''-, began raiding the lightly-defended towns. The planet's militia was poorly trained and equipped - a far cry from the force required to ensure security and drive the unwanted raiders off of the planet. When the criminal enforcers began to invade and seize control of entire towns, the government sought aid from the [[Galactic Republic]], but, as a non-member, their pleas were all but ignored - largely due to the start of the Clone Wars. When the government, with nowhere else to turn, began offering contracts to mercenaries for their assistance, Tomas o`Cuinn answered the call.

Realizing that a simple consultation was far from sufficient, Tomas renegotiated the contract and set to training the militiamen in combat techniques that would prove effective when harassing a larger and better-equipped force. Over the course of almost a year, the militia learned to operate as small squads capable of rapid movement, using the terrain and darkness of night to engage in unconventional warfare against the overconfident force of organized raiders who, through their shared combat experience and uniquely strict leadership hierarchy, acted almost the same as a conventional army. To demonstrate that their hostile actions would no longer be tolerated and that the militia was capable of hurting them, Tomas instructed them in irregular and psychological warfare such as guerrilla tactics and booby traps. Taught to gather intelligence prior to any operation, the militiamen would strike rapidly at the enemy forces and disappear just as quickly, injuring or killing and sowing confusion among the criminal ranks. Coupling this with strategically-placed booby traps proved effective in decreasing morale and introducing fear into the gang's soldiers, limiting their combat capacity and ending their aggressive advances against the planet's towns.

</table></center>

As Year 23 ([[BCGT]]) rolled around, the criminal force's advance had been effectively stopped, and Tomas switched strategy and worked to turn the militia - now swelling with experience and confidence earned from success - into a highly disciplined and effective military force. Just as the new training regime was beginning, however, -'''REDACTED'''- quietly brought in its heavy hitters along with reinforcements to deal with the planet's unexpected resistance to subjugation. A surprise orbital bombardment on the militia's "hidden" training base caught the unsuspecting Tomas off guard, bringing the entire compound down around him and his trainees. Tomas, mortally-wounded from the structure collapsing on him, was recovered by -'''REDACTED'''- enforcers. With the knowledge that he had been the source of their troubles on the planet, local -'''REDACTED'''- leadership made the decision to keep Tomas alive - only long enough to suffer for his insolence. To this end, his shattered arms were amputated and replaced with basic cybernetic limbs, though they were useless for all but the most basic of tasks. A Lornan implant was installed into his brain to regulate his body's electrical current since it was now incapable of doing such naturally. A cheap ear implant was installed to recover his diminished hearing - they figured he should have to suffer his own screams. His lungs, damaged beyond repair by the chemical asphyxiation and smoke inhalation caused by the bombardment, were removed and replaced with a cybernetic pair. His damaged eyes and other injuries, however, weren't deemed as life-threatening.

After the string of surgeries and a brief stint in a bacta tank, Tomas was deemed fit to undergo an extensive program of systematic torture, attacking a specific area of the body at a time over the course of several months - always fixed up overnight in a bacta tank for the fresh treatment of pain the following day. This regulated torture lasted for two years, until -'''REDACTED'''- leadership decided the expense was no longer worth the continued punishment and opted to turn Cuinn into a trophy, displayed publicly to serve as a visible reminder of what happened to those who crossed them. The most effective process turned out to be carbon-freezing, with the design-intended tibanna gas being replaced with a [[Mandalorian]] named Tomas. He would hang on display for three decades, in the carbon-induced state of suspended animation, until the normal turnover of leadership resulted in his transgressions being forgotten and the outdated carbonite figure being removed and discarded. Due to his already-diminished physical condition, such as his almost non-existent eyesight, the standard effects of long-term suspended animation were barely noticeable, though what damage did occur was minimized by his cybernetic "enhancements" and eventually healed with an impressive amount of bacta when he was finally thawed from his carbonite imprisonment.

==Family. Honour. Profit.==
: "''It is a vast criminal syndicate...its influence felt on every planet from the Core Worlds to the Outer Rim. Black Sun has existed for hundreds of years and embedded itself in the very fiber of the galaxy. The resources at its disposal are almost limitless. The soldiers under its command number in the tens of thousands. The ignorant even call it the most powerful force in the known universe.''"
While it is not public knowledge what happened after his carbonite frame was discarded, Cuinn eventually emerged as an officer for the [[Black Sun]] crime syndicate. While his history with the syndicate was shrouded in secrecy, many of the details have been released since his expulsion from the organization in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). Originally recruited as a small-time enforcer, Tomas quickly worked his way up the ranks by producing results through sheer dedication and a hands-on work style. Most of his earned salary went towards improving his cybernetics, gradually returning the range of physical capabilities he'd enjoyed decades before. Of his career in [[Black Sun]], what is known is that he is a veteran of both the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, constructing homes and jobs for more than one hundred and fifty-five billion civilians and creating over one billion credits in additional monthly revenue for the syndicate. He also fought against the [[United_Rebel_Front|United Rebel Front]] during the Battle of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=5923 Axxila], securing complete control of the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=203 Ciutric Sector]. He also served as the Chief Operating Officer of the (now defunct) [[Hyrotii Corporation]] for some time, providing assistance to his good friend [[Rexan Vyrim]] during a period of increased raw material requirements. Cuinn personally re-wrote the [[Black Sun]] [http://holocron.swcombine.com/wiki/Black_Sun#Code_of_Conduct Code of Conduct], expanding its coverage and refining the format for an increased understanding, along with designing the entire training program that turned inexperienced recruits into knowledgeable and efficient members. He served as the middle ground between the Family Council and junior members, handling various personnel issues and relaying council orders throughout the chain of command. Near the end of his career with the syndicate, Cuinn was the highest-ranking officer and headed up the ("Indoctrination") Recruitment and Training division, while also working as an intelligence officer and senior member of [[Black Sun|Black Watch]].

Shortly after the [[Black Sun]] takeover of [[Xanxus Drol|Xanxus Drol’s]] company, [[The Guild Bank]], in early-to-mid [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]), Cuinn publicly sold off hundreds of the seized assets for vastly reduced prices compared to the market standard at the time. Cuinn's sales, even at reduced pricing, resulted in a net profit of almost two billion galactic credits for [[Black Sun]]. He was rewarded with a portion of the profits and an extra promotion for his role in the affair along with quickly accomplishing the massive amount of additional work without issue. The overwhelming number of sales and unusually low pricing also helped to build his public presence in the trading community.

His proven loyalty and dedicated work ethic were rewarded numerous times by both Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]] and Dark Princess [[Cait Catra]]. Despite a career demanding nothing short of respect, one of [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander von Ismay’s]] initial moves as the Dark Prince usurper was to force Cuinn out of the syndicate on the 354th day of [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander]] followed this by blacklisting and declaring Cuinn an enemy of [[Black Sun]] on the first day of [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]).

==The Opportunity of Gree==
: "''I know you're familiar with the ancient Rakata Infinite Empire. The Gree predate them by eons.''"
Tomas settled in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, accepting a position with the local Gree Enclave government as a security consultant to update the system's defenses from years of neglect. He immediately set himself to designing and overseeing construction on a series of shield networks and anti-orbital weapon platforms on each of the system's planets whilst simultaneously ordering the fabrication of new defensive and early warning space stations along the system's outer perimeter. His efforts eventually led to the founding of the [[Gree Trade Authority]], a multi-billion credit trade and security company that focused on furthering the system's development. He switched his focus toward rebuilding the infrastructure that was suppressed during [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lengthy occupation. Using his knowledge from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, he tasked the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority]] with construction infrastructure on [[Gree IV]], promoting increased immigration, tourism, and intersystem commerce.<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39174 Creating Jobs, Building Lives: Gree Trade Authority Sets Economic Records (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 16 Day 226)]</ref>.

[[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] formed numerous naval fleets to defend the system and ensure the safety of all citizens and visitors; chief among these was the impressive [[Aliit Dael'mor|Dael'mor]] fleet to help deter future attacks, formed around the former [[Black Sun]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial-class]] and [[Victory Star Destroyer|Victory-class]] [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]]. Supporting these fleets was a multi-tiered ring of defensive space stations of varying designs, including the Ataturk-class and Golan models I & II, placed in strategic locations throughout [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Placed along the outer edges of the system, a ring of XQ1-series platforms served as customs checkpoints, an advanced warning system, and the initial line of defense against pirates or other would-be invaders. Each of the platforms was supported by a [[Corona-class frigate|''Corona''-class frigate]] and sheltered two starfighter squadrons - one comprised of [[Y-wing]]s and the other of [[R-41 Starchasers|R-41 starchasers]] - for defense. An [[Imperial]] fleet arrived unexpectedly in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system in mid-[[Year 16]] ([[CGT]]), prompting the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to lock down planetary accesses and deploy its fleets in a defensive perimeter around the planets. The [[Galactic Empire]] had dispatched two [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyers]], three [[Victory Star Destroyer I|Victory I-class Star Destroyers]], and one [[Carrack/S-class Light Cruiser|Carrack/S-class light cruiser]] to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system at the behest and begging of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] Dark Prince, [[Alexander von Ismay]], due to his inability to muster their own [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] for such a show of force. While the [[Imperial]] fleet was certainly impressive, the Golan stations and [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] naval fleets would have been more than enough of a match to defend the system. However, the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] ships maintained a safe distance from [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] perimeter and simply flew reconnaissance sorties with a handful of [[TIE/sr Starfighter|TIE scouts]] whilst an [[Imperial]] Director sent casual threats to Tomas regarding [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] seized [[Star Destroyers]]. Eventually, the Imperial fleet departed, but this event spurred the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to open formal diplomatic relations with the [[New Republic]] and [[Galactic Alliance]]. Tomas knew that the Imperials would return in the future, and in greater number.

After former Underlord [[Alexander von Ismay]] was kicked out of [[Black Sun]] for petty theft and attempted blackmail, Tomas reached out to the new Dark Prince, [[Jeor Knight]], and the Family Council in an effort to quell the hostilities created by [[Alexander von Ismay|Ismay]] years before. Negotiations between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and [[Black Sun]] resulted in improved relations between the groups, as Tomas personally saw to the release of approximately one billion credits worth of [[Black Sun]]-owned vehicles that had been confiscated by [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]]. Dozens of crates containing various equipment owned by the syndicate were also released to a [[Black Sun]] pilot. Forty-two highly-trained operatives in the employ of Vigo and former Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]], and their rare and expensive equipment, were released from custody after years of imprisonment. [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] also publicly supported [[Black Sun]] in the Galactic News System<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39984 Black Sun - A Modern History Lesson (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 17 Day 167)]</ref> when the [[ViskCor News Network]] posted propaganda against the syndicate<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39979 Black Sun's Future in Imperial Union Uncertain (Hacked by Rayus Kestyn on Year 17 Day 166)]</ref>.

Early in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged a [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] employment opportunity to lure the notorious Varro Belle to [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Belle was the inside man in a [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] operation that allowed the capture of over a dozen [[Krath Dynasty]] officers, the impounding of a reported twenty-five hundred restricted starfighters, and the seizure of between twelve and thirty thousand crates of various equipment. Belle personally detained [[Lazarus Kell]], the current Emperor of [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]], during the operation's climax, and stole [[Lazarus Kell|Kell's]] prized lightsaber. The [[Krath Dynasty]] reported their losses two days later, on [[Year 17|17.262]] ([[CGT]])<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40212 Traitors strike from within the Krath (Posted by Ellias Aubec on Year 17 Day 262)]</ref>, and subsequently offered a five hundred million credit reward for his capture. Due to the [[Galactic Alliance]] and [[Krath Dynasty]] desperately wanting to see Varro Belle in cuffs, Tomas offered the criminal employment in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] star system, working construction for the [[Gree Trade Authority]]. Since Belle was a highly wanted criminal, he was desperate in seeking neutral employment in the mostly lawless [[Outer Rim Territories]] - but, as he soon learned, [[Gree (System)|Gree]] does not conform to the loose standards of law enforcement common throughout the region. After a few weeks of building trust, along with directly profiting from his labor, Tomas led a team of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] most experienced soldiers and detained Belle in orbit of the [[Gree IV]] gas giant. While Belle chose to fight back against his arrest, he was quickly overpowered by the cybernetic [[Mandalorian]] supported by an elite squad of [[Abyssin]] troops. A press release was provided to the galaxy on [[Year 18|18.53]] ([[CGT]]), less than twelve hours after his capture<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40566 Gree Press Release: Belles Are Ringing (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 18 Day 53)]</ref>. [[Lazarus Kell]], who had secured his release from [[Imperial Union]] custody and ascended the [[Krath Dynasty]] throne as Emperor, was eager to see Belle extradited from [[Gree (System)|Gree]] to [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]] to answer for his crimes. It was [[Krath Dynasty|Krath's]] Lord Imperator [[Talak Kasra]] that discussed the extradition with [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and, upon the successful negotiation, traveled to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to retrieve the prisoner. After the ordeal was finished, Tomas was overheard as stating that Belle's labor was estimated to have increased the [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree Trade Authority's]] gross monthly income by an approximate ten million credits.

From when the [[Gree Trade Authority]] was founded near the midpoint of [[Year 15]] to early [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree IV]] gas giant was the major investment and development project that consumed the majority of Tomas's time and attention. Under [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] leadership, the [[planet]] had simply served as a mining platform for tibanna gas; under the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority's]] management, however, the mining operations were greatly expanded with an emphasis on worker safety, mining process improvements, and employee morale. With an extensive investment campaign into the equipment and training for every mine worker, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was able to greatly increase the mining operation's size and, with its own investments and the increasing mine profits, extensively develop the system of interlinked platform cities across the gas giant's atmosphere. [[Gree IV]] housed barely one million citizens in [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]), but by [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), more than ten billion individuals would call the gas giant their home - an increase of ten thousand percent. The planet's economy grew with its population and become one of the largest, healthiest, and safest centers for trade and commerce in the [[Outer Rim]]. The success and development of [[Gree IV]] also led to the [[Gree Trade Authority]] being recognized by the [[galaxy]] as the governing entity of the entire [[Gree (Sector)|Gree]] sector, surpassing and replacing the [[Black Sun]] criminal syndicate.

==Command in the Resistance==
: "''So you're with the Resistance?''"
: "''Obviously. Yes I am. I'm with the Resistance, yeah. I am with the Resistance.''"
: "''I've never met a Resistance fighter before.''"
: "''Well this is what we look like, some of us. Others look different.''"
Knowing [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] precarious stance in the heart of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] territory, Tomas had worked in secret to support and ally his conglomerate with the [[New Republic]]. By [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree Trade Authority]] (and it's short-lived successor, the [[Gree Enclave]]) had signed a non-aggression pact with [[The Krath|the Krath]] and an alliance with the [[New Republic]], along with a technology agreement granting tier one access to the latter's technology. Despite this, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was acutely aware of how little a few powerful warships would matter if the [[Galactic Empire]] sent another fleet to their system. Tomas reached out to an old friend, [[The Resistance|Resistance]] Commander and former Deputy Director of [[New Republic|New Republic Intelligence]] Cedron Tryonel, and negotiations began regarding a merger between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and the [[The Resistance|Resistance]]. The result of these talks was the effective closure of the entire [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] conglomerate, with its membership and assets being absorbed into either [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] or the [[The Resistance|Resistance's]] operations.

Knowing that he suddenly had to worry about the entire [[Imperial Union]] along with operating on a galactic scale instead of simply in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, Tomas opened negotiations with Dark Prince [[Jeor Knight]] and Vigo [[Banquo Knox]] of [[Black Sun]] regarding their interest in re-obtaining [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. While negotiations were unforgiving, eventually a deal was struck to exchange Tomas's holdings in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system for [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] control over the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. The 11 billion inhabitants of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] were once again under the control of the crime syndicate, but their return to suffering was not for nothing as the approximate 165 billion civilians in the liberated sectors were suddenly freed from [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] grasp. While Tomas regretted [[Gree (System)|Gree's]] sacrifice, he knew that the liberation of two sectors was an acceptable price to pay. On top of this, galactic analysts quickly estimated [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lost revenue in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors as approximately 2.916 billion credits per year and expected the financial experts of the former [[Gree Trade Authority]] to quickly capitalize on establishing control of the businesses and income streams. Ultimately, Tomas sacrificed the four planets of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] in exchange for eight worlds - his deal cost only a single system and had taken two sectors away from the [[Imperial Union]], removing one of their strongholds in the galactic southeast. The [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector bordered space controlled by the [[New Republic]], [[The Krath|Krath]], and [[The eXiles]] - Tomas's removal of [[Black Sun]] from the sector solved a major security issue for the three [[Galactic Alliance]] groups.

After joining the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on the 85th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas spearheaded a reorganization that created several theaters of operation throughout the galaxy, each overseen by a commander who was tasked with developing and organizing their own staff and sector. Tomas was granted the rank of Theater Commander and command of the Deep Core and Morshdine Theaters, along with the third-in-command position of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and one of their three seats on the [[Galactic Alliance]] Leadership Council. Much of Tomas's work within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] has been withheld from the galactic public, though it is known that he was involved in Operation Unknown Signals, a joint task force between the [[New Republic]], [[The Resistance|Resistance]], and [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]) to respond to several distress calls originating from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=211 Tynna] [[sector]]. The task force flawlessly coordinated a [[sector]]-wide search in an effort to locate the frigates broadcasting their distress and, discovering them consecutively, rapidly dispatched dozens of hostile pirate groups at each of their locations. In the end, the joint operation was able to locate and rescue three of the four troubled [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates while the fourth was seized by the [[The Exchange|Exchange]]. Tomas was credited with just ten bandit kills, though he publicly attributed this to having only a half squadron of [[RZ-1 A-wing interceptor|A-wings]] and having spent the majority of his time flying reconnaissance before and during the combat engagements. As a reward for their aid, the Tynnani Defense Force awarded three [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates to three members of the [[New Republic]] for their individual performance, and two of the three voluntarily transferred their ships to the [[New Republic]]. One frigate was retained by the [[New Republic]] while the second was awarded to the [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] for their efforts; the third, intended for the [[The Resistance|Resistance]], was greedily kept by [[Lahasa Fy]] despite numerous offers of compensation. Tomas took issue with [[Lahasa Fy|Lahasa's]] actions, who had utilized task force intelligence, [[New Republic]] starfighters, and fought alongside pilots from all three groups, yet felt no apparent need to share in his reward; [[Lahasa Fy|Fy]] left the [[New Republic]] not long after.

Eventually, Tomas grew disillusioned with the state of the [[Galactic Alliance]], even after he was appointed to the position of Deputy Secretary-General. The distrust and lack of cooperation between the alliance's member states was a substantial issue in the fight against the [[Imperial Union]], which he had been a member of during his time in [[Black Sun]]. He began harboring resentment towards several member groups for their lack of contribution and activity within the alliance, and two of them had even spoken out strongly against him in his early appointment to the Leadership Council. Unwilling to put his energy into any sort of reform, and knowing it would likely fail due to certain inflexible leaders who predated his time in the alliance by more than a decade, Tomas ultimately decided that his future lay in another direction and resigned his posts both within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and [[Galactic Alliance]] near the end of [[Year 18]]. He had spent just less than a standard year in the positions combined, but felt that he had learned all that he needed to in order to realize that the [[Galactic Alliance|Galactic Alliance's]] fight against [[Imperial]] tyranny was doomed without serious change. After eight months as their third-in-command, Tomas departed the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on good terms on the 325th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]).

==Focusing on the Clan==
: "''I came to tell you that your people can expect to be busy in the next few months. A war is coming.''"
: "''You must be new in this galaxy. There's always a war going on somewhere, always has been, always will be. It's why Mandalorians have never gone out of business.''"
After his departure from the [[Galactic Alliance]], Tomas felt content that he could focus solely on himself and his [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian clan]], [[Dael'mor]], including the clan's holdings in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector. Chief among the required work was the removal of an alarming number of empty skyscrapers and barracks in [[Homon (System)|Homon]], abandoned when [[Black Sun]] had pulled out of the system, which Tomas contracted to [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul Khrog's]] [[Kerdos Company]] for two hundred and thirty million credits. After his project was completed, however, [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul]] disappeared from the [[galaxy]] under mysterious circumstances and the [[Kerdos Company]] suddenly under new management. No evidence has tied Tomas to the disappearance of the ex-[[Morgukai]], though plenty of rumors circulated in the following months. To further develop both of the sectors, Kez Aak's [[Endless Endeavors]] was contracted in a job estimated to be worth over five hundred million credits. Tomas also bankrolled the [[Amitus Corporation]] and acted as their Chief Financial Officer, but departed their organization after only three weeks due to unpublicized reasons.

</table></center>

On the 37th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas visited his closest ally aboard the '''[[Secutor]]''', [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer I|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] and flagship, where he was presented with a gift: a lightsaber with a green blade. Having sought to purchase a lightsaber throughout the galaxy for several years, even negotiating to pay up to five hundred million credits at one point in time, he was ecstatic with the gift given to him by [[Cait Catra]]. The lightsaber formerly belonged to Mladen Phantom, a Dark Jedi that [[Cait Catra|Catra]] had defeated several years prior, and kept as a trophy until it was gifted to Tomas. Although he was not afflicted with the [[force]], Tomas was already an avid swordsman and quickly adapted his melee combat skills to accommodate the lightsaber's unique requirements, such as all of the weight being in the hilt. He began training in Form V with a Djem So specialty, focusing on lightsaber dueling despite the obvious disadvantage he'd have against a force user. Djem So also played into the strength of his cybernetic arms, since the form relies on brute force to overpower an opponent's defense. Despite the avid attempts to train with his lightsaber, Tomas' lack of force sensitivity prevented him from achieving anything more than a basic level of dueling skill likely equivalent to that of a Padawan. Later in the year, Tomas struck a deal with his closest allies that net him a new flagship - the clan's [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] - in exchange for his controlling interests in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector, minus the ecumenopolis Woldona VII.

It was revealed near the beginning of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]) that Tomas had managed to produce more than eight hundred of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] proprietary [[Viper|Viper-class starfighters]] over a ten-month period through their negligence over access to the engineering specifications. The syndicate had failed to remove the blueprints from the shipyards in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system, though an unavoidable backdoor into the shared database system of the shipyards allowed the syndicate to remotely corrupt the engineering data after they realized their mistake. It proved far too late, however, as their error had allowed Tomas to produce more than four billion credits worth of [[Viper|Vipers]], valued on the market at five million credits each at the time of production. The market price for a single [[Viper|Viper-class starfighter]] dropped by fifty percent to two and a half million credits by the midpoint of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), however, after a large secondary supply flooded the market and [[Black Sun]] itself began to sell the fighters, likely in an attempt to both cash in on the demand due to their financial troubles and to create the appearance that the further release of their proprietary technology had barely affected the syndicate.

After the [[War for the Hosnian System]] began on the 195th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas quickly dropped his tasks in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system and set course for [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] in his [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wing interceptor]]. Despite the cramped, two-day trip, he arrived on the 198th day and immediately set to claiming land rights for future sale, securing legal ownership of five grids on [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=6243 Hosnian Prime] at the cost of eighteen million and six hundred thousand credits. He quickly sold the land rights to the [[New Republic]] for one hundred and seventy-five million credits, netting him a quick and tidy profit of just over one hundred and fifty-six million credits, immediately ensuring that the trip would be profitable. Afterward, the tremendous number of individuals and organizations flooding into the system in their own attempts to profit seemed to affect Tomas in a strange way. It was almost as if he could sense the growing number of people with hostile intent and it overwhelmed his senses, refusing to allow him any time to think or concentrate. He lost control of himself over the next several days but eventually snapped out of it, only to realize that he had hunted down and slaughtered more than three hundred sentients across three of the system's planets, cutting them down with his lightsaber as they had attempted to build basic infrastructure for their respective employers - the [[Galactic Empire]], [[Mecrosa]], and Veilhal Nomads. Torn with grief and regret over his actions, he departed the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system and returned to [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]], immediately seeking out a trusted physician to provide a throughout examination and explanation for his loss of control. Even after a substantial number of tests, the doctor simply concluded that one of his cybernetic implants had likely malfunctioned and triggered a psychotic episode.

Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), it somehow slipped into public knowledge that Tomas owned a hidden space station attached to an asteroid deep within [[the Maw]], an unstable and dangerous cluster of black holes located in the [[Kessel]] sector. Rumors surrounding the asteroid hideout suggest that it serves as a high-security prison for dangerous individuals from throughout the galaxy, sent and paid for by governments unable or unwilling to contain or execute the deadly parties. Paid handsomely for housing the risky prisoners, Tomas had ironically named the station ''Shelter'' and entrusted an unknown business associate with managing the prison for him.

==Establishing Sevetta==
Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), the remnants of the [[Gree Trade Authority]] banded together to re-emerge as the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], a collection of companies operating out of the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. Mirroring the former organization of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]], Tomas was appointed as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the conglomerate while each company's leaders became vice presidents and department heads in the overarching organization. [[DefenStar Ltd.]] was established as the flagship company for the conglomerate on [[Year 19|19.323]], [[Golan Arms]] opened on [[Year 19|19.343]], [[LodeCorp Mining]] re-opened on [[Year 20|20.002]], and [[Golan Construction]] was acquired and the [[Zaltin Corporation]] incorporated both on [[Year 20|20.160]] ([[CGT]])

When much of [[Helen Hawk|Helen Hawk's]] holdings were publicly auctioned off in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]) following her apprehension by the [[New Republic]], Tomas leveraged the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] substantial financial power to scoop up an [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter]], an [[MC-60 Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80a Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80b Star Cruiser]], and a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] for an undisclosed number of credits. The [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter|V-wing]] was sold to [[Sirius Cyan]] for five hundred million credits, while the [[MC-60 Star Cruiser|MC-60]] was traded to Robby Rae for a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] and a squadron of [[A/SF-01 B-wing Starfighter|B-wings]]; the destroyer was subsequently resold to Jimmy Roggeman for one and a half billion credits while the B-wings were individually sold to [[Drax Whittler]], Lazarus Grimm, [[Diabolus`ut Persolvo]], and [[Lorenzas Atticus]] for a combined two and three quarter billion credits. The [[MC-80a Star Cruiser|MC-80a]] was sold to [[Lilith Delcroix]] for five billion credits while the [[MC-80b Star Cruiser|MC-80b]] was sold to Esu Kyouto for eight billion credits. The final [[Sabaoth Destroyer]], however, was purchased primarily for the almost six billion credits worth of droids stored aboard which Tomas intended to sell at the next [[Jawa Swap Meet]] in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]). Even with reduced sales pricing of droids due to the increase of supply outweighing market demand, Tomas earned the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] four and a half billion credits of pure net profit from the business venture.

==The Mando'ade==
Although the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] monthly cash flow and net profits year-to-date were both in the billions of credits, Tomas grew disillusioned with running the conglomerate - just as he had with the [[Gree Trade Authority]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]). When he was approached by Mand'alor [[Kai Oryk]] about the formation of a new [[Mandalorian]] government near the mid-point of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas realized that his desire to return to the roots of his culture far outweighed the continued business success he had been pursuing for the past decade. He quietly set to disbanding the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and bringing [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], now under the leadership of his nephew [[Victor o`Cuinn]], under the banner of [[Mando'ade]]. [[DefenStar Ltd.]], [[Golan Construction]], and [[LodeCorp Mining]] were closed, while the [[Zaltin Corporation]] became a nationalized faction of [[Mando'ade]]; [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] assumed ownership and operation of [[Golan Arms]]. The [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] effectively shut its doors on [[Year 20|20.206]] ([[CGT]]) and [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] joined up [[Mando'ade]], with Tomas being granted the rank of Ko'verd and a position on the leadership council.

Tomas withdrew from the public eye and focused on his work within both [[Mando'ade]] and [[Dael'mor]]. Following the defection of [[CorSec]] to The Cooperative in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas purchased critical infrastructure on the world of [https://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=2843 Columus] from Jeff Kronn for a small fortune. In the confusion and aftermath of [[CorSec|CorSec's]] officers betraying their [[Galactic Empire]] masters, Tomas as able to secure the local population's loyalty and immediately sought to sell his holdings and influence for a profit. Soon after, Urkh Malal purchased Tomas' investment, earning the latter a reported two and a half billion credit profit in less than two months.

When the [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]] system was discovered near the end of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas established an allied coalition consisting of three different groups, which set course to the [[Western Reaches]] sector in an attempt to stake their claim. While they arrived barely in time to secure the smallest of land parcels in [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]], itself, they initiated a scouting mission within the sector due to rumors of another untouched system in the area. When they discovered the [[Takodana (System)|Takodana]] system on the 313th day of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), they quickly realize that the [[Trade Federation]] had beaten them there by approximately five days. Despite the head start and their colonization efforts underway, the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] had not yet solidified their grip over the planet and the coalition quickly moved to secure their own land rights on the planet. With the desire to prevent any bloodshed or hostilities with the [[Trade Federation]], Tomas opened negotiations with Duceroy Salamku Derov over the sale of their holdings and the cease of coalition operations on the world. A deal was struck and the coalition walked away with five hundred million credits for their troubles, having handed the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] their land and intel.

==Blue Star Dominion==
At the beginning of [[Year 21]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas decided that it was time for his people to set off on their own again. [[LodeCorp Mining]] was once again established on Day 12 to serve as a front organization for the group's activities, though it would come to grow into something much larger. After the fall of the [[New Republic]], [[LodeCorp Mining|LodeCorp]] established a mutual defense pact with the [[Rebel Alliance]] and re-confirmed its commitment against the [[Imperial Union]], later becoming a founding member of the [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] on Day 127 alongside the [[The Hyporian Commonwealth (Year 20 - Year 21)|Hyporian Commonwealth]], [[Mando'ade]], the [[Rebel Alliance]], and Stryker Military Services. The [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] was a regional defense treaty signed during the War for the Republic to defend the Galactic Southeast from an anticipated [[Imperial Union]] offensive. Despite the concern, [[Imperial Union]] activity was limited to the sectors of the former [[New Republic]] and territory sympathetic to the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] in the northern portions of the [[Outer Rim]].

On the 210th day, the [[Order of the One Sith]] became fractured upon the betrayal of [[Morgan Sathel]] and [[Kaze Zill]], who then turned on each other. [[Kaze Zill|Kaze]] was able to seize control of the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] world of [[Venaari]], which Tomas foresaw an opportunity with and purchased for three billion credits. A depot station orbiting the world was purchased from [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for a hundred and fifty million credits, while operatives were dispatched to bypass and disable the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] leader [[Darin Byrch|Darin Byrch's]] planetary shield network. While the operatives were en route, however, [[Darin Byrch|Darin]] agreed to exchange the shield network for one and a half billion credits - granting Tomas complete control. He was able to negotiate the resale of [[Venaari]] back to [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for eight billion credits, netting Tomas more than three billion credits in profit.

The desire to expand led to the establishment of the [[Blue Star Dominion]] as a sovereign government of the [[Sevetta]] sector and [[Dagu (System)|Dagu]] system on the 21st day of [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). On Day 80, Dominion Command was established to oversee operations and consisted of Cedron Tryonel, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn|Taranjeek o`Cuinn]], and Tomas o`Cuinn.

The [[Blue Star Dominion]] participated in the [[Tolonda Conflict]] led by the [[Jedi Order]] and took part in both the [[Jedi Order|Jedi's]] Operation ROID RAGE and its own Operation Appropriation. Operation Appropriation was the codename for a covert military action conducted by the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion's]] naval and marine forces to seize and destroy numerous ships owned by the [[Sith Imperium]]. With the majority of the Imperium's forces scrambling in response to their late discovery of the [[Jedi Order|Jedi Order's]] Operation ROID RAGE, Dominion Marshal Tomas o`Cuinn quietly outlined a plan with Sith Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau]], an independent operative sympathetic to the rebel cause, to launch a clandestine assault behind enemy lines. Calculating that they had a limited window of opportunity to strike, the Dominion borrowed two local [[Modular Taskforce Cruiser|Modular Taskforce Cruisers]] from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] to bring their total in the [[Tolonda]] sector to three. Two of the cruisers were dispatched to the [[Tamra (System)|Tamra]] system under the commands of Tomas and Taranjeek o`Cuinn while the third was committed to the [[Oshora (System)|Oshora]] system under the command of [[Kaze Zill]]. Each of the warships was manned by several companies of Dominion marines and escorted to the outskirts of their respective target systems by the Dominion Navy, which broke off outside of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] sensor range in an effort to maintain the cruiser's stealth. Transmitting false IFF codes, each cruiser casually made its approach into the respective system and successfully evaded notice by the Sith. In the early hours of the morning on Day 60, Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau|Tau]] transferred the access codes of the entire [[Sith Imperium]] fleet to Dominion Command, signaling execution of the plan. With much of the Imperium's personnel occupied elsewhere, the vessels in the target areas were either manned by only skeleton crews or unmanned entirely. Dominion marines rapidly executed boarding maneuvers on hundreds of ships in the three locations, quietly subduing the confused and quickly overwhelmed crews before they could raise any alarm and captured the bridges. Tractor beams from the cruisers swiftly moved the occupied vessels into their docking bays while others were flown and docked manually. The Dominion successfully seized over three hundred of the Sith Imperium's ships before the transfer of access codes was noticed and a remote reset command was sent to the fleet, prompting a hasty exit from the system for the cruisers amid the confusion and leaving behind a chaotic embarrassment for the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] to wake up to. At least two [[BFF-1 Bulk Freighter|BFF-1 bulk freighters]] were destroyed during the operation, reportedly at the hands of their own crew. An unconfirmed report from across the galaxy in the Ottega system alleged that, at the same time as the Dominion operation, an [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] [[Mammoth-class Heavy Hauler|Mammoth-class heavy hauler]] was mysteriously destroyed by what local authorities described as a remote slicing attack that exploited its fuel line. Analysts throughout the galaxy have since estimated that the Imperium lost a quarter of their entire naval fleet. Many of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] lost vessels were later used as target practice and subsequently destroyed by a Rebel task force deployed to the Petabys Conflict Zone during an unrelated operation.

After the [[Galactic Empire|Galactic Empire's]] triumph over the [[New Republic]] in [[Year 21]], months of subsequent conflict and territorial changes left thousands of outposts abandoned throughout the [[Outer Rim]]. One of these vacated bases, known as Stardew Station, was marked as an unimportant observatory at the edge of the galaxy in low-level [[New Republic]] files, yet no coordinates were included. As the combat being waged between the [[Imperial Union]] and Rebels dragged on, forces from both sides haphazardly uncovered fragments of intelligence that were carelessly secured and sloppily transmitted. The Information Operations Network (ION), a Rebel-developed intelligence tool, frequently intercepted slivers of the relayed data in an attempt to piece together the information as if it were a puzzle. It was through ION that Stardew Station was first flagged as a location of interest in [[Year 22]] due to the unusual personnel assignments prior to the outpost's desertion; the research scientists attached to the station specialized in interstellar navigation, advanced weapons development, metallurgy engineering, and progressive propulsion technologies. After the location of interested was flagged, it became easier for ION to rapidly process future incoming data relevant to that location and, after a few weeks longer, coordinates for Stardew were ascertained - the [[Pelgrin]] sector. A report was automatically generated for review by an analyst, who examined the data and determined that Stardew was worth exploring. A joint task force was formed between two nearby Rebel groups, the [[Blue Star Dominion]] and Stryker Military Services, and dispatched to investigate Stardew Station. Warden [[Kaze Zill]] was deployed to lead a detachment of Dominion Ghosts as the task force's ground unit, while Stryker's Mika Noris commanded a squadron of elite pilots to provide both naval superiority and transportation. Upon arrival at Stardew's coordinates, the task force fell under immediate attack by a coalition of pirate organizations intent on plundering the station's secrets. While his squadron engaged the pirate vessels, Noris skillfully hacked into the station's control systems, disabling the automated defenses and securing the Ghosts an opening to insert into Stardew. The Ghosts advanced through the station, combating the pirate crew who proved limited challenge for the force users and their disciplined troops. Unsupported by the station's defenses that Noris previously disabled, the pirate armada realized heavy casualties to the superior Stryker pilots. Losing contact with their forces inside as the Dominion secured the station, the pirate remnants disengaged and withdrew from Stardew. Stardew Station played host to a classified research and development program for the [[New Republic]]. The scientist's mission was to develop an advanced attack corvette capable of serving as a fleet escort picket ship and long-range patrol craft, along with countering the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] formidable DP-20c gunship. While most of the technological research had been completed and verified, the design team had not yet engineered the actual vessel. As the remnants of the [[New Republic]] were still reforming into the [[Rebel Alliance]] elsewhere in the galaxy, it was determined that completing the development of this ship was best suited to the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] and Stryker. Assisted by ION, research teams led by the Dominion's Marshal Cedron Tryonel and Stryker's Jaria Feri partnered to develop the [[MC-30b Corvette]]. Working prototypes were assembled soon after completion of the design and the vessel was quickly put into service.

Upon investigating distress calls on Day 331 of [[Year 22]], the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] discovered the lost system of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] in their capital sector of [[Sevetta]]. Rapidly perceiving that the sole planet was home to heavily-entrenched criminal cartels, Dominion Command called upon their allies for assistance in emancipating the oppressed population of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] spearheaded Operation Kowak, publicly known as the [[Battle for Kowak]], and led a large Rebel coalition to successfully liberate [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] from the criminal warlords and protect the system from potential opportunists. The coalition consisted of [[The Antarian Rangers]], [[-ARK-]], [[DOM Arsenal]], [[The Exchange]], [[Grand Duchy of Froz]], [[The Invid Order]], [[Jedi Order]], [[Mando'ade]], [[Rebel_Alliance_(Year_21)|Rebel Alliance]], [[The Resistance]], [[Rogue Squadron]], [[Stryker Military Services]], [[Ternion Corps]], and [[TIEFE]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] issued a public travel advisory on Day 332<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46276 Kowak System Travel Restriction (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 332)]</ref>, claiming control of the system and promising military action against potential invaders. Throughout the operation, the Rebel coalition continuously shipped in infantry battalions, thousands of starfighters, dozens of corvettes, and powerful capital warships such [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] and Mon Calamari Star Cruisers. [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] was fully secured on Day 337<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46293 Dominion Liberates the Kowak System (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 339)]</ref>, leading to the scaling down of the coalition's operations during the following weeks.

=Supplemental Information=
===Description===
: "''I'm just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe.''"
Tomas is a [[Hapan]] [[Category:Males|male]] of standard build standing 1.8 meters in height, rather unimposing and disarming in appearance. Despite being born in Year 55 ([[BCGT]]) and being more than seventy years old, his physical body is approximately three decades younger due to the years spent in suspended animation. Prior to skin replacement, his torso had worn a half-lifetime of scars from years spent training and fighting. Very rarely will he shed the protection of his custom-forged set of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=69 heavy battle armour] and [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=70 helmet]. A [[DLT-20a]] blaster rifle hangs on his back, held by a sling around his torso, while a pair of lightsabers hang off of his belt which also conceals the blade of a sheathed knife. To supplement the blaster's mid-range capabilities, Cuinn carries a pair of modified [[ELG-3A]] blasters for closer engagements, one strapped to his left thigh and the other on the rear of his belt.

===Cybernetics===
: "''He is a Borg who died last night. You know the term, I'm sure. Half human…half mechanical droid. Yet the man half of him had a soul, or so my faith believes.''"
Due to his extensive cybernetic implants, he could easily be classified as more cyborg than anything else. Unusually, the majority of these cybernetics are not enhancements but replacements for the physical damage received from events in Cuinn's past. The dermis and epidermis of his chest have been permanently supplanted with synthskin due to extensive second-degree burns and blunt impact trauma. A Lornan implant, the exact model number unknown, resides on his brain stem to regulate the electrical currents in his body while basic ear augmentations have been installed to generate a standard level of hearing. A pair of automated lungs draws oxygen in place of the discarded originals. Military-grade optical implants with customized, commercial-grade software replaced his damaged-beyond-repair eyes, though their only benefit over standard vision is a slight increase in night vision. Most of Cuinn's joints have been augmented with durasteel pins for added durability, albeit at the cost of their overall ranges of motion. The only cybernetic that could fairly be classified as an enhancement would be his custom-engineered arms. The engineering standards and design specifications are not known outside of a small, trusted circle, though public reports suggest that his arm strength and muscular endurance is much greater than it naturally should be.

===Trading Career===
: "''The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.''"
Tomas o`Cuinn is one of the most well-known and successful traders in the galaxy. His trading career began with [http://market.centrepointstation.com/details.php?lid=208519 the sale] of a [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Light_Freighters&ID=167 Nu-Class Attack Shuttle], which was gifted to him, to Leah Asalah on the 331st day of [[Year 13]] ([[CGT]]). He immediately adopted a profit-based business model and used the liquid capital from his initial sale to jump-start a starship trafficking business, purchasing derelict vessels for a fraction of their value and restoring them for profitable resale. Since then, his resale business has reportedly earned him billions of credits in net profit, though the early numbers are presumably inflated due to the widely-fluctuating market value of starships and his assignment from [[Black Sun]] to sell off [[The_Guild_Bank|The Guild Bank's]] assets in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). According to public rumor, his largest and most profitable transaction was his sale of controlling stake in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to [[Black Sun]] in exchange for their ownership of the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] and [[Homon (System)|Homon]] star systems, though no public records of trade have been discovered for this transaction. On the 217th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged his status as a reputable businessman in order to steal twenty billion credits from the [[Aurodium Legion]], likely the largest trade theft on known galactic record.

===Armor & Armament===
: "''My armor insures my victory in hand-to-hand combat.''"
Though heavily outfitted, Cuinn believes in the value of allies and, as such, has cultivated a highly cohesive unit of veteran [[Abyssin]] soldiers, twelve-strong, that work closely with him on various missions. His personal [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Military&ID=7 Droideka], nicknamed Ver'gebuir, is his constant companion and bodyguard regardless of location. Due to his age, Tomas' physical dexterity and speed have declined and, as a result, has come to rely on his allies, heavy armour, and cunning to make up the difference.

===A Matter of Race (Metamorphosis Plague)===
: "''Well let's have a look at you. Hmm. Biped. More or less symmetrical. Far less hair than the last one. Opposable digits. Mostly water hey?''"
It is unknown whether Cuinn was personally affected when the [[Metamorphosis Plague]] raged across the galaxy in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). However, numerous reports from routine security scans have since surfaced with varying results in regards to his DNA. These conflicting scans, all between [[Year 14]] and [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), have classified him as [[Amani]], [[Anx]], [[Anzati]], Chagrian, Codru-Ji, [[Diathim]], [[Gotal]], [[Kaleesh]], Kushiban, [[Mirialan]], Vurk, and [[Whiphid]]. While his physical appearance is obviously that of a [[Human]] male, Tomas has said simply that he was injected with an experimental DNA scrambler while working as an operative for [[Black Sun|Black Watch]], the purpose of which was to mask his identity from enemy detection and prevent collection and/or manipulation of his DNA. While this claim isn't likely to be proven anytime soon, there are a number of rumors in circulation about Cuinn's actual race, the most interesting of which suggests that he is actually [[Clawdite]]. He has dismissed these rumors as silliness, publicly maintaining that he is simply a true-born [[Human]] of [[Hapan]] ancestry. At any point, some passive scan data has suggested that Tomas is actually more cybernetic than flesh, prompting further theories that he no longer fits into the confines of any one race - unless that race is cyborg.

The secretive Aliit Dael'mor, led by Aliit'buir [[Jevon Lambright]], and is one of the oldest and arguably well-known of the [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian clans]]. Dael'mor has existed both on its own and within other organizations for over a decade; the clan's power and influence has fluctuated over the years, with its members having controlled notable organizations such as [[Black Sun]], the [[Gree Trade Authority]], and the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]]. It is estimated that Aliit Dael'mor is one of the wealthiest clans in the galaxy, with several of its members being reputed billionaires. Dael'mor is also unusual among the clans in that it extends membership for close friends, family, and allies that are not [[Mandalorian]]. The clan recognizes [[Kaze Zill]] as Mand'alor and maintains a close relationship with [[Mando'ade]].

Dael'mor is affiliated with the [[Blue Star Dominion]] and [[Mando'ade]].

[[Mandalorian]] members of the clan include:
* [[Cait Catra]]
* Corwyn Zythor
* [[Jevon Lambright]]
* [[Niobe Asha]]
* [[Rylee o`Cuinn]]

The Unity Protocol was a mutual defense treaty signed on [[Year 21| Year 21 Day 127]] during [[the War for the Republic]]. Fearing a possible invasion by the [[Imperial Union]], representatives from [[Gav Technical Services]] (which later merged into [[LodeCorp Mining]]) authored the treaty, which was signed by governments and corporations who had interests in the south-east region of the galaxy, including the [[The Hyporian Commonwealth (Year 20 - Year 21)|Hyporian Commonwealth]] (which later become [[-ARK-]]), [[LodeCorp Mining]] (which later became [[Blue Star Dominion]]), [[Mando'ade]], [[Stryker Military Services]], and the newly-formed [[Rebel Alliance]]. Despite the concern, Imperial Union activity was limited to the sectors of the former New Republic and territory sympathetic to [[The Resistance]] in the northern portions of the [[Outer Rim]].

The '''Raid on the Kowak System''' was a short battle between the [[Zann Consortium]] and [[Rebel Alliance]] (and its allies) that took place in the [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] system in [[Year 23]].

=Background=
The [[Zann Consortium]] was a powerful criminal syndicate operating in the [[Outer Rim Territories]], known for their ruthless tactics and cunning strategies, and considered themselves to be a significant threat to various galactic powers such as the [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]]. In [[Year 23]], the [[Zann Consortium]] assault force "Soul Reavers" launched an attack on the [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]] system of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]].<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46870 GNS: Breaking News - Attack of the Terror Consortium]</ref>

=The Raid=
[[File:Hololocroo.png|300px|thumb|left|Zann-released image of the raid]]
The raid was a carefully planned assault by the [[Zann Consortium]] to disrupt the [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] system's defenses and assault [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]] assets. The attack was carried out by a vanguard of Defiler ships, led by [[Ximaro Jix]] and [[Bork Shalas]], who targeted and destroyed [[The Resistance|Resistance]]-registered satellites in the system in an effort to provoke a response from the [[Zann Consortium|Consortium's]] enemies and eliminate potential intelligence on their fleet movements. In response to the attack, the [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]] dispatched a local flight of [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|RZ-1 A-wing interceptors]] to investigate and engage the reported criminal activity. Anticipating a sustained conflict for the system, the [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]] requested support from local Rebel factions. As the [[Blue Star Dominion]] operates in the [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector where [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] resides, the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] was the first group able to arrive with reinforcements.

[[Zann Consortium|Zann]] relied on a strategy of swarming during the raid, wagering that their larger number of ships would prove overwhelming to the smaller number of defending ships. As a result, the initial flight of [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wing interceptors]] was overwhelmed and cut in half before reinforcements could arrive. [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] Marshal Taranjeek o`Cuinn was the first to arrive and reported that the [[Zann Consortium|Zann]] force was attacking undefended civilian transports. Taranjeek devised a strategy to slave two empty [[MC-30b Corvette|MC-30b corvette's]] to her command ship to act as decoys in an effort to shield the civilian ships under threat, drawing [[Zann Consortium|Zann's]] attention. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] corvettes were launched alongside a squadron of [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wings]] and all were ultimately lost, claiming the lives of a dozen [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] pilots, but buying critical time for additional reinforcements to arrive. Compeer Mika Noris of [[The Exchange]] and Arbiter David Archer of the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] arrived in-system and engaged the aggressors alongside Marshal Taranjeek. Realizing that their numerical advantage was slipping away, the [[Zann Consortium|Zann]] fleet disengaged and made a tactical withdrawal after the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion's]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] ''Bastion'' arrived, commanded by Marshal [[Tomas O`Cuinn]]. Soon after the disengagement, further reinforcements arrived from the [[Blue Star Dominion]], [[The Exchange]], [[Jedi Order]], [[Rebel Alliance]], [[Stryker Military Services]], [[The Resistance]], and [[Ternion Corps]].

=Aftermath=
[[File:Holocron1.png|300px|thumb|right|Zann-released image of the raid]]
The raid on the [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] system lasted approximately one standard day but quickly became a disputed event between the [[Zann Consortium]] and [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]], with each side claiming victory. The [[Zann Consortium|Consortium]] declared it a triumph, stating that it further solidified their reputation as a formidable criminal syndicate by striking a devastating blow to the [[Blue Star Dominion]] and [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]].<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46880 GNS: Escarmouche]</ref> Conversely, the [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]] announced they had successfully protected the civilian population and driven off the unprovoked assault.<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46879 GNS: Kowak Pirate Threat Eliminated]</ref> Ultimately, the Rebels reportedly two corvettes, eighteen starfighters, and four satellites while the [[Zann Consortium|Zann]] lost four starfighters and one gunboat while sustaining damage to eighteen more starfighters. The [[Zann Consortium|Consortium]] also made the claim that they were able to drop supplies on the planet's surface to support local insurgents, though a subsequent investigation by the [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]] discovered no evidence that the planetary shield network, activated in response to the attack, had been penetrated by the criminal group.

The Toscan is one of the oldest ships in the galaxy. Created before the start of the Clone Wars, the idea was to create a ship so powerful it could take out any fighter that came at it without manoeuvering. This ship has the hull strength of a light freighter and the weapons load of a Skipray Blastboat making it one of the most deadly ships around. With most of its space focused on weaponry, the engines are slower than almost every ship making it vulnerable to fast interceptors who can dodge the heavy incoming fire. This is the predecessor of the famed Y-Wing and the V-Wing as evident in the shape of the cockpit and the wings. With a minimal sensor package and no astromech space this fighter has seen less and less use throughout the galaxy despite the large payload it can carry. The Toscan sports heavy bomber weaponry in the form of concussion missile launchers for corvettes and freighters as well as Ion cannons and lasers for fighter defence. While rare these days they are still a force to be feared and can often be seen among heavily armed pirate raiding parties.

The most versatile of all Rebel starfighters, the Y-Wing is capable of handling virtually every mission with only slight modifications. Specifically the inclusion of Ion cannons in its arsenal make it a popular starfighter amongst pirates. Like the famous TIE fighter, the Y Wing is powered by a twin Ion engine, but unlike the TIE this ship has both engines away from the main hull, giving it the characteristic Y shape when viewed from above or below. A drawback to this design has proven to be the fact that it now leaves the Y wings power couplings in an exposed position, making them a preferred target in dogfights. This variation of the Y wing designated the BTL-S3 is a two man variant, usually a pilot and a gunner. It has superior shields to its sister ship, the BTL-A4 Longprobe because of the inclusion of an extra Novaldex power generator. The extra power is also needed for the weapons. The proton torpedo magazine, located just under the passenger/gunner seat was removed for the BTL-A4 model to make room for the extra sensor package.

The '''Raid on the Kowak System''' was a short battle between the [[Zann Consortium]] and [[Rebel Alliance]] (and its allies) that took place in the [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] system in [[Year 23]].

=Background=
The [[Zann Consortium]] was a powerful criminal syndicate operating in the [[Outer Rim Territories]], known for their ruthless tactics and cunning strategies, and considered themselves to be a significant threat to various galactic powers such as the [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]]. In [[Year 23]], the [[Zann Consortium]] assault force "Soul Reavers" launched an attack on the [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]] system of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]].<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46870 GNS: Breaking News - Attack of the Terror Consortium]</ref>

=The Raid=
[[File:Hololocroo.png|300px|thumb|left|Zann-released image of the raid]]
The raid was a carefully planned assault by the [[Zann Consortium]] to disrupt the [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] system's defenses and assault [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]] assets. The attack was carried out by a vanguard of Defiler ships, led by [[Ximaro Jix]] and [[Bork Shalas]], who targeted and destroyed [[The Resistance|Resistance]]-registered satellites in the system in an effort to provoke a response from the [[Zann Consortium|Consortium's]] enemies and eliminate potential intelligence on their fleet movements. In response to the attack, the [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]] dispatched a local flight of [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|RZ-1 A-wing interceptors]] to investigate and engage the reported criminal activity. Anticipating a sustained conflict for the system, the [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]] requested support from local Rebel factions. As the [[Blue Star Dominion]] operates in the [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector where [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] resides, the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] was the first group able to arrive with reinforcements.

[[Zann Consortium|Zann]] relied on a strategy of swarming during the raid, wagering that their larger number of ships would prove overwhelming to the smaller number of defending ships. As a result, the initial flight of [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wing interceptors]] was overwhelmed and destroyed before reinforcements could arrive. [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] Marshal Taranjeek o`Cuinn was the first to arrive and reported that the [[Zann Consortium|Zann]] force was attacking undefended civilian transports. Taranjeek devised a strategy to slave two empty [[MC-30b Corvette|MC-30b corvette's]] to her command ship to act as decoys in an effort to shield the civilian ships under threat, drawing [[Zann Consortium|Zann's]] attention. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] corvettes were launched alongside a squadron of [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wings]] and all were ultimately lost, claiming the lives of a dozen [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] pilots, but buying critical time for additional reinforcements to arrive. Compeer Mika Noris of [[The Exchange]] and Arbiter David Archer of the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] arrived in-system and engaged the aggressors alongside Marshal Taranjeek. Realizing that their numerical advantage was slipping away, the [[Zann Consortium|Zann]] fleet disengaged and made a tactical withdrawal after the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion's]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] ''Bastion'' arrived, commanded by Marshal [[Tomas O`Cuinn]]. Soon after the disengagement, further reinforcements arrived from the [[Blue Star Dominion]], [[The Exchange]], [[Jedi Order]], [[Rebel Alliance]], [[Stryker Military Services]], [[The Resistance]], and [[Ternion Corps]].

=Aftermath=
[[File:Holocron1.png|300px|thumb|right|Zann-released image of the raid]]
The raid on the [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] system lasted approximately one standard day but quickly became a disputed event between the [[Zann Consortium]] and [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]], with each side claiming victory. The [[Zann Consortium|Consortium]] declared it a triumph, stating that it further solidified their reputation as a formidable criminal syndicate by striking a devastating blow to the [[Blue Star Dominion]] and [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]].<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46880 GNS: Escarmouche]</ref> Conversely, the [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]] announced they had successfully protected the civilian population and driven off the unprovoked assault.<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46879 GNS: Kowak Pirate Threat Eliminated]</ref> Ultimately, the Rebels reportedly lost four satellites, eighteen starfighters, and two corvettes while only damaging the [[Zann Consortium|Zann]] fleet. The [[Zann Consortium|Consortium]] also made the claim that they were able to drop supplies on the planet's surface to support local insurgents, though a subsequent investigation by the [[Rebel Alliance (Year 21)|Rebel Alliance]] discovered no evidence that the planetary shield network, activated in response to the attack, had been penetrated by the criminal group.

Kowak is a [[system|star system]] located in the [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] [[sector]] of the [[Outer Rim Territories]] and is governed by the [[Rebel_Alliance_(Year_21)|Rebel Alliance]]. The system's unexpected discovery on [[Year 22|Year 22 Day 331]] resulted in the [[Battle for Kowak]], where a large Rebel coalition liberated the planet Kowak from criminal warlords and protected the system from potential opportunists. Kowak was publicly claimed by the [[Blue Star Dominion]] on Day 332<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46276 GNS: Kowak System Travel Restriction]</ref> but was not officially secured until Day 337.<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46293 GNS: Dominion Liberates the Kowak System]</ref> The system later became controlled by the [[Rebel_Alliance_(Year_21)|Rebel Alliance]] and was the site of the [[Raid on the Kowak System]] in [[Year 23]].

[[Tomas o`Cuinn]] (pronounced /toʊˈmɑːs oʊˈkwɪn/) is a well-known businessman, industrial specialist, and military commander. He is one of three Marshals of the [[Blue Star Dominion]], Waadas'alor of [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], Governor of the [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector, and Patriarch of Clan o`Cuinn. Tomas is best known for founding the [[Gree Trade Authority]], [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and [[Blue Star Dominion]] between [[Year 15]] and [[Year 23]] ([[CGT]]). He originally gained widespread recognition for his highly-advertised trading career along with galactic notoriety for his public position with the [[Black Sun|Black Sun]] crime syndicate before being dismissed from the organization at the end of [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). He has also served as a Theater Commander and third-in-command of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and as Deputy Secretary-General of the [[Galactic Alliance]].

</table></center>
Per the earliest relevant records, Tomas o`Cuinn, 20 years old, served as the youngest of seventy-five [[Mandalorian]] members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' - ''[[Mando'a]]'' for "Those Who No Longer Exist" - which was formed to train the clone commandos for the [[Galactic Republic]] on the watery world of [[Kamino]] in Year 35 ([[BCGT]]). For close to ten years, Tomas and the other members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' served as training sergeants for the elite clone commandos of the Grand Army. These battle-proven sergeants taught the ten thousand commandos in a variety of ways, including teamwork, infiltration methods, demolition techniques, assassination and much more. Along with imparting their combat prowess and tactical skills, the [[Mandalorian]] trainers also included their cultural customs and way of life, believing it important that the clones know of their heritage - especially since their genetic template was a prominent [[Mandalorian]] - despite objections from the [[Kaminoan|Kaminoans]]. When the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems]] launched attacks against the [[Galactic Republic]] in the Sumitra and Centrality sectors in Year 25 ([[BCGT]]), the previously secret clone troopers were revealed and organized into the Grand Army of the [[Galactic Republic|Republic]]; this newly organized army was immediately deployed in response to the attacks. Thus begins the Clone Wars. With their contract ended, many of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' departed [[Kamino]] and returned to their former lives, though a few remained to train future generations of clones; Tomas was among those who left.

Despite having fulfilled the decade-long training mission, Tomas was far too duty-oriented to take any sort of vacation and, as such, soon accepted a contract on an obscure [[Outer Rim]] [[planet|world]]; the job consisted of a physical security consultation for the relatively unimportant planet's government. A hideout had been recently established in the natural caves of the planet's mountains and had already proved to be a threat as the enforcers of the newly-arrived criminal organization, known as -'''REDACTED'''-, began raiding the lightly-defended towns. The planet's militia was poorly trained and equipped - a far cry from the force required to ensure security and drive the unwanted raiders off of the planet. When the criminal enforcers began to invade and seize control of entire towns, the government sought aid from the [[Galactic Republic]], but, as a non-member, their pleas were all but ignored - largely due to the start of the Clone Wars. When the government, with nowhere else to turn, began offering contracts to mercenaries for their assistance, Tomas o`Cuinn answered the call.

Realizing that a simple consultation was far from sufficient, Tomas renegotiated the contract and set to training the militiamen in combat techniques that would prove effective when harassing a larger and better-equipped force. Over the course of almost a year, the militia learned to operate as small squads capable of rapid movement, using the terrain and darkness of night to engage in unconventional warfare against the overconfident force of organized raiders who, through their shared combat experience and uniquely strict leadership hierarchy, acted almost the same as a conventional army. To demonstrate that their hostile actions would no longer be tolerated and that the militia was capable of hurting them, Tomas instructed them in irregular and psychological warfare such as guerrilla tactics and booby traps. Taught to gather intelligence prior to any operation, the militiamen would strike rapidly at the enemy forces and disappear just as quickly, injuring or killing and sowing confusion among the criminal ranks. Coupling this with strategically-placed booby traps proved effective in decreasing morale and introducing fear into the gang's soldiers, limiting their combat capacity and ending their aggressive advances against the planet's towns.

</table></center>

As Year 23 ([[BCGT]]) rolled around, the criminal force's advance had been effectively stopped, and Tomas switched strategy and worked to turn the militia - now swelling with experience and confidence earned from success - into a highly disciplined and effective military force. Just as the new training regime was beginning, however, -'''REDACTED'''- quietly brought in its heavy hitters along with reinforcements to deal with the planet's unexpected resistance to subjugation. A surprise orbital bombardment on the militia's "hidden" training base caught the unsuspecting Tomas off guard, bringing the entire compound down around him and his trainees. Tomas, mortally-wounded from the structure collapsing on him, was recovered by -'''REDACTED'''- enforcers. With the knowledge that he had been the source of their troubles on the planet, local -'''REDACTED'''- leadership made the decision to keep Tomas alive - only long enough to suffer for his insolence. To this end, his shattered arms were amputated and replaced with basic cybernetic limbs, though they were useless for all but the most basic of tasks. A Lornan implant was installed into his brain to regulate his body's electrical current since it was now incapable of doing such naturally. A cheap ear implant was installed to recover his diminished hearing - they figured he should have to suffer his own screams. His lungs, damaged beyond repair by the chemical asphyxiation and smoke inhalation caused by the bombardment, were removed and replaced with a cybernetic pair. His damaged eyes and other injuries, however, weren't deemed as life-threatening.

After the string of surgeries and a brief stint in a bacta tank, Tomas was deemed fit to undergo an extensive program of systematic torture, attacking a specific area of the body at a time over the course of several months - always fixed up overnight in a bacta tank for the fresh treatment of pain the following day. This regulated torture lasted for two years, until -'''REDACTED'''- leadership decided the expense was no longer worth the continued punishment and opted to turn Cuinn into a trophy, displayed publicly to serve as a visible reminder of what happened to those who crossed them. The most effective process turned out to be carbon-freezing, with the design-intended tibanna gas being replaced with a [[Mandalorian]] named Tomas. He would hang on display for three decades, in the carbon-induced state of suspended animation, until the normal turnover of leadership resulted in his transgressions being forgotten and the outdated carbonite figure being removed and discarded. Due to his already-diminished physical condition, such as his almost non-existent eyesight, the standard effects of long-term suspended animation were barely noticeable, though what damage did occur was minimized by his cybernetic "enhancements" and eventually healed with an impressive amount of bacta when he was finally thawed from his carbonite imprisonment.

==Family. Honour. Profit.==
: "''It is a vast criminal syndicate...its influence felt on every planet from the Core Worlds to the Outer Rim. Black Sun has existed for hundreds of years and embedded itself in the very fiber of the galaxy. The resources at its disposal are almost limitless. The soldiers under its command number in the tens of thousands. The ignorant even call it the most powerful force in the known universe.''"
While it is not public knowledge what happened after his carbonite frame was discarded, Cuinn eventually emerged as an officer for the [[Black Sun]] crime syndicate. While his history with the syndicate was shrouded in secrecy, many of the details have been released since his expulsion from the organization in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). Originally recruited as a small-time enforcer, Tomas quickly worked his way up the ranks by producing results through sheer dedication and a hands-on work style. Most of his earned salary went towards improving his cybernetics, gradually returning the range of physical capabilities he'd enjoyed decades before. Of his career in [[Black Sun]], what is known is that he is a veteran of both the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, constructing homes and jobs for more than one hundred and fifty-five billion civilians and creating over one billion credits in additional monthly revenue for the syndicate. He also fought against the [[United_Rebel_Front|United Rebel Front]] during the Battle of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=5923 Axxila], securing complete control of the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=203 Ciutric Sector]. He also served as the Chief Operating Officer of the (now defunct) [[Hyrotii Corporation]] for some time, providing assistance to his good friend [[Rexan Vyrim]] during a period of increased raw material requirements. Cuinn personally re-wrote the [[Black Sun]] [http://holocron.swcombine.com/wiki/Black_Sun#Code_of_Conduct Code of Conduct], expanding its coverage and refining the format for an increased understanding, along with designing the entire training program that turned inexperienced recruits into knowledgeable and efficient members. He served as the middle ground between the Family Council and junior members, handling various personnel issues and relaying council orders throughout the chain of command. Near the end of his career with the syndicate, Cuinn was the highest-ranking officer and headed up the ("Indoctrination") Recruitment and Training division, while also working as an intelligence officer and senior member of [[Black Sun|Black Watch]].

Shortly after the [[Black Sun]] takeover of [[Xanxus Drol|Xanxus Drol’s]] company, [[The Guild Bank]], in early-to-mid [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]), Cuinn publicly sold off hundreds of the seized assets for vastly reduced prices compared to the market standard at the time. Cuinn's sales, even at reduced pricing, resulted in a net profit of almost two billion galactic credits for [[Black Sun]]. He was rewarded with a portion of the profits and an extra promotion for his role in the affair along with quickly accomplishing the massive amount of additional work without issue. The overwhelming number of sales and unusually low pricing also helped to build his public presence in the trading community.

His proven loyalty and dedicated work ethic were rewarded numerous times by both Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]] and Dark Princess [[Cait Catra]]. Despite a career demanding nothing short of respect, one of [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander von Ismay’s]] initial moves as the Dark Prince usurper was to force Cuinn out of the syndicate on the 354th day of [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander]] followed this by blacklisting and declaring Cuinn an enemy of [[Black Sun]] on the first day of [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]).

==The Opportunity of Gree==
: "''I know you're familiar with the ancient Rakata Infinite Empire. The Gree predate them by eons.''"
Tomas settled in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, accepting a position with the local Gree Enclave government as a security consultant to update the system's defenses from years of neglect. He immediately set himself to designing and overseeing construction on a series of shield networks and anti-orbital weapon platforms on each of the system's planets whilst simultaneously ordering the fabrication of new defensive and early warning space stations along the system's outer perimeter. His efforts eventually led to the founding of the [[Gree Trade Authority]], a multi-billion credit trade and security company that focused on furthering the system's development. He switched his focus toward rebuilding the infrastructure that was suppressed during [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lengthy occupation. Using his knowledge from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, he tasked the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority]] with construction infrastructure on [[Gree IV]], promoting increased immigration, tourism, and intersystem commerce.<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39174 Creating Jobs, Building Lives: Gree Trade Authority Sets Economic Records (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 16 Day 226)]</ref>.

[[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] formed numerous naval fleets to defend the system and ensure the safety of all citizens and visitors; chief among these was the impressive [[Aliit Dael'mor|Dael'mor]] fleet to help deter future attacks, formed around the former [[Black Sun]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial-class]] and [[Victory Star Destroyer|Victory-class]] [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]]. Supporting these fleets was a multi-tiered ring of defensive space stations of varying designs, including the Ataturk-class and Golan models I & II, placed in strategic locations throughout [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Placed along the outer edges of the system, a ring of XQ1-series platforms served as customs checkpoints, an advanced warning system, and the initial line of defense against pirates or other would-be invaders. Each of the platforms was supported by a [[Corona-class frigate|''Corona''-class frigate]] and sheltered two starfighter squadrons - one comprised of [[Y-wing]]s and the other of [[R-41 Starchasers|R-41 starchasers]] - for defense. An [[Imperial]] fleet arrived unexpectedly in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system in mid-[[Year 16]] ([[CGT]]), prompting the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to lock down planetary accesses and deploy its fleets in a defensive perimeter around the planets. The [[Galactic Empire]] had dispatched two [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyers]], three [[Victory Star Destroyer I|Victory I-class Star Destroyers]], and one [[Carrack/S-class Light Cruiser|Carrack/S-class light cruiser]] to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system at the behest and begging of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] Dark Prince, [[Alexander von Ismay]], due to his inability to muster their own [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] for such a show of force. While the [[Imperial]] fleet was certainly impressive, the Golan stations and [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] naval fleets would have been more than enough of a match to defend the system. However, the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] ships maintained a safe distance from [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] perimeter and simply flew reconnaissance sorties with a handful of [[TIE/sr Starfighter|TIE scouts]] whilst an [[Imperial]] Director sent casual threats to Tomas regarding [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] seized [[Star Destroyers]]. Eventually, the Imperial fleet departed, but this event spurred the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to open formal diplomatic relations with the [[New Republic]] and [[Galactic Alliance]]. Tomas knew that the Imperials would return in the future, and in greater number.

After former Underlord [[Alexander von Ismay]] was kicked out of [[Black Sun]] for petty theft and attempted blackmail, Tomas reached out to the new Dark Prince, [[Jeor Knight]], and the Family Council in an effort to quell the hostilities created by [[Alexander von Ismay|Ismay]] years before. Negotiations between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and [[Black Sun]] resulted in improved relations between the groups, as Tomas personally saw to the release of approximately one billion credits worth of [[Black Sun]]-owned vehicles that had been confiscated by [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]]. Dozens of crates containing various equipment owned by the syndicate were also released to a [[Black Sun]] pilot. Forty-two highly-trained operatives in the employ of Vigo and former Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]], and their rare and expensive equipment, were released from custody after years of imprisonment. [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] also publicly supported [[Black Sun]] in the Galactic News System<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39984 Black Sun - A Modern History Lesson (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 17 Day 167)]</ref> when the [[ViskCor News Network]] posted propaganda against the syndicate<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39979 Black Sun's Future in Imperial Union Uncertain (Hacked by Rayus Kestyn on Year 17 Day 166)]</ref>.

Early in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged a [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] employment opportunity to lure the notorious Varro Belle to [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Belle was the inside man in a [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] operation that allowed the capture of over a dozen [[Krath Dynasty]] officers, the impounding of a reported twenty-five hundred restricted starfighters, and the seizure of between twelve and thirty thousand crates of various equipment. Belle personally detained [[Lazarus Kell]], the current Emperor of [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]], during the operation's climax, and stole [[Lazarus Kell|Kell's]] prized lightsaber. The [[Krath Dynasty]] reported their losses two days later, on [[Year 17|17.262]] ([[CGT]])<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40212 Traitors strike from within the Krath (Posted by Ellias Aubec on Year 17 Day 262)]</ref>, and subsequently offered a five hundred million credit reward for his capture. Due to the [[Galactic Alliance]] and [[Krath Dynasty]] desperately wanting to see Varro Belle in cuffs, Tomas offered the criminal employment in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] star system, working construction for the [[Gree Trade Authority]]. Since Belle was a highly wanted criminal, he was desperate in seeking neutral employment in the mostly lawless [[Outer Rim Territories]] - but, as he soon learned, [[Gree (System)|Gree]] does not conform to the loose standards of law enforcement common throughout the region. After a few weeks of building trust, along with directly profiting from his labor, Tomas led a team of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] most experienced soldiers and detained Belle in orbit of the [[Gree IV]] gas giant. While Belle chose to fight back against his arrest, he was quickly overpowered by the cybernetic [[Mandalorian]] supported by an elite squad of [[Abyssin]] troops. A press release was provided to the galaxy on [[Year 18|18.53]] ([[CGT]]), less than twelve hours after his capture<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40566 Gree Press Release: Belles Are Ringing (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 18 Day 53)]</ref>. [[Lazarus Kell]], who had secured his release from [[Imperial Union]] custody and ascended the [[Krath Dynasty]] throne as Emperor, was eager to see Belle extradited from [[Gree (System)|Gree]] to [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]] to answer for his crimes. It was [[Krath Dynasty|Krath's]] Lord Imperator [[Talak Kasra]] that discussed the extradition with [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and, upon the successful negotiation, traveled to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to retrieve the prisoner. After the ordeal was finished, Tomas was overheard as stating that Belle's labor was estimated to have increased the [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree Trade Authority's]] gross monthly income by an approximate ten million credits.

From when the [[Gree Trade Authority]] was founded near the midpoint of [[Year 15]] to early [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree IV]] gas giant was the major investment and development project that consumed the majority of Tomas's time and attention. Under [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] leadership, the [[planet]] had simply served as a mining platform for tibanna gas; under the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority's]] management, however, the mining operations were greatly expanded with an emphasis on worker safety, mining process improvements, and employee morale. With an extensive investment campaign into the equipment and training for every mine worker, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was able to greatly increase the mining operation's size and, with its own investments and the increasing mine profits, extensively develop the system of interlinked platform cities across the gas giant's atmosphere. [[Gree IV]] housed barely one million citizens in [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]), but by [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), more than ten billion individuals would call the gas giant their home - an increase of ten thousand percent. The planet's economy grew with its population and become one of the largest, healthiest, and safest centers for trade and commerce in the [[Outer Rim]]. The success and development of [[Gree IV]] also led to the [[Gree Trade Authority]] being recognized by the [[galaxy]] as the governing entity of the entire [[Gree (Sector)|Gree]] sector, surpassing and replacing the [[Black Sun]] criminal syndicate.

==Command in the Resistance==
: "''So you're with the Resistance?''"
: "''Obviously. Yes I am. I'm with the Resistance, yeah. I am with the Resistance.''"
: "''I've never met a Resistance fighter before.''"
: "''Well this is what we look like, some of us. Others look different.''"
Knowing [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] precarious stance in the heart of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] territory, Tomas had worked in secret to support and ally his conglomerate with the [[New Republic]]. By [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree Trade Authority]] (and it's short-lived successor, the [[Gree Enclave]]) had signed a non-aggression pact with [[The Krath|the Krath]] and an alliance with the [[New Republic]], along with a technology agreement granting tier one access to the latter's technology. Despite this, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was acutely aware of how little a few powerful warships would matter if the [[Galactic Empire]] sent another fleet to their system. Tomas reached out to an old friend, [[The Resistance|Resistance]] Commander and former Deputy Director of [[New Republic|New Republic Intelligence]] Cedron Tryonel, and negotiations began regarding a merger between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and the [[The Resistance|Resistance]]. The result of these talks was the effective closure of the entire [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] conglomerate, with its membership and assets being absorbed into either [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] or the [[The Resistance|Resistance's]] operations.

Knowing that he suddenly had to worry about the entire [[Imperial Union]] along with operating on a galactic scale instead of simply in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, Tomas opened negotiations with Dark Prince [[Jeor Knight]] and Vigo [[Banquo Knox]] of [[Black Sun]] regarding their interest in re-obtaining [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. While negotiations were unforgiving, eventually a deal was struck to exchange Tomas's holdings in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system for [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] control over the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. The 11 billion inhabitants of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] were once again under the control of the crime syndicate, but their return to suffering was not for nothing as the approximate 165 billion civilians in the liberated sectors were suddenly freed from [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] grasp. While Tomas regretted [[Gree (System)|Gree's]] sacrifice, he knew that the liberation of two sectors was an acceptable price to pay. On top of this, galactic analysts quickly estimated [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lost revenue in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors as approximately 2.916 billion credits per year and expected the financial experts of the former [[Gree Trade Authority]] to quickly capitalize on establishing control of the businesses and income streams. Ultimately, Tomas sacrificed the four planets of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] in exchange for eight worlds - his deal cost only a single system and had taken two sectors away from the [[Imperial Union]], removing one of their strongholds in the galactic southeast. The [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector bordered space controlled by the [[New Republic]], [[The Krath|Krath]], and [[The eXiles]] - Tomas's removal of [[Black Sun]] from the sector solved a major security issue for the three [[Galactic Alliance]] groups.

After joining the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on the 85th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas spearheaded a reorganization that created several theaters of operation throughout the galaxy, each overseen by a commander who was tasked with developing and organizing their own staff and sector. Tomas was granted the rank of Theater Commander and command of the Deep Core and Morshdine Theaters, along with the third-in-command position of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and one of their three seats on the [[Galactic Alliance]] Leadership Council. Much of Tomas's work within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] has been withheld from the galactic public, though it is known that he was involved in Operation Unknown Signals, a joint task force between the [[New Republic]], [[The Resistance|Resistance]], and [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]) to respond to several distress calls originating from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=211 Tynna] [[sector]]. The task force flawlessly coordinated a [[sector]]-wide search in an effort to locate the frigates broadcasting their distress and, discovering them consecutively, rapidly dispatched dozens of hostile pirate groups at each of their locations. In the end, the joint operation was able to locate and rescue three of the four troubled [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates while the fourth was seized by the [[The Exchange|Exchange]]. Tomas was credited with just ten bandit kills, though he publicly attributed this to having only a half squadron of [[RZ-1 A-wing interceptor|A-wings]] and having spent the majority of his time flying reconnaissance before and during the combat engagements. As a reward for their aid, the Tynnani Defense Force awarded three [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates to three members of the [[New Republic]] for their individual performance, and two of the three voluntarily transferred their ships to the [[New Republic]]. One frigate was retained by the [[New Republic]] while the second was awarded to the [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] for their efforts; the third, intended for the [[The Resistance|Resistance]], was greedily kept by [[Lahasa Fy]] despite numerous offers of compensation. Tomas took issue with [[Lahasa Fy|Lahasa's]] actions, who had utilized task force intelligence, [[New Republic]] starfighters, and fought alongside pilots from all three groups, yet felt no apparent need to share in his reward; [[Lahasa Fy|Fy]] left the [[New Republic]] not long after.

Eventually, Tomas grew disillusioned with the state of the [[Galactic Alliance]], even after he was appointed to the position of Deputy Secretary-General. The distrust and lack of cooperation between the alliance's member states was a substantial issue in the fight against the [[Imperial Union]], which he had been a member of during his time in [[Black Sun]]. He began harboring resentment towards several member groups for their lack of contribution and activity within the alliance, and two of them had even spoken out strongly against him in his early appointment to the Leadership Council. Unwilling to put his energy into any sort of reform, and knowing it would likely fail due to certain inflexible leaders who predated his time in the alliance by more than a decade, Tomas ultimately decided that his future lay in another direction and resigned his posts both within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and [[Galactic Alliance]] near the end of [[Year 18]]. He had spent just less than a standard year in the positions combined, but felt that he had learned all that he needed to in order to realize that the [[Galactic Alliance|Galactic Alliance's]] fight against [[Imperial]] tyranny was doomed without serious change. After eight months as their third-in-command, Tomas departed the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on good terms on the 325th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]).

==Focusing on the Clan==
: "''I came to tell you that your people can expect to be busy in the next few months. A war is coming.''"
: "''You must be new in this galaxy. There's always a war going on somewhere, always has been, always will be. It's why Mandalorians have never gone out of business.''"
After his departure from the [[Galactic Alliance]], Tomas felt content that he could focus solely on himself and his [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian clan]], [[Dael'mor]], including the clan's holdings in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector. Chief among the required work was the removal of an alarming number of empty skyscrapers and barracks in [[Homon (System)|Homon]], abandoned when [[Black Sun]] had pulled out of the system, which Tomas contracted to [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul Khrog's]] [[Kerdos Company]] for two hundred and thirty million credits. After his project was completed, however, [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul]] disappeared from the [[galaxy]] under mysterious circumstances and the [[Kerdos Company]] suddenly under new management. No evidence has tied Tomas to the disappearance of the ex-[[Morgukai]], though plenty of rumors circulated in the following months. To further develop both of the sectors, Kez Aak's [[Endless Endeavors]] was contracted in a job estimated to be worth over five hundred million credits. Tomas also bankrolled the [[Amitus Corporation]] and acted as their Chief Financial Officer, but departed their organization after only three weeks due to unpublicized reasons.

On the 37th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas visited his closest ally aboard the '''[[Secutor]]''', [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer I|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] and flagship, where he was presented with a gift: a lightsaber with a green blade. Having sought to purchase a lightsaber throughout the galaxy for several years, even negotiating to pay up to five hundred million credits at one point in time, he was ecstatic with the gift given to him by [[Cait Catra]]. The lightsaber formerly belonged to Mladen Phantom, a Dark Jedi that [[Cait Catra|Catra]] had defeated several years prior, and kept as a trophy until it was gifted to Tomas. Although he was not afflicted with the [[force]], Tomas was already an avid swordsman and quickly adapted his melee combat skills to accommodate the lightsaber's unique requirements, such as all of the weight being in the hilt. He began training in Form V with a Djem So specialty, focusing on lightsaber dueling despite the obvious disadvantage he'd have against a force user. Djem So also played into the strength of his cybernetic arms, since the form relies on brute force to overpower an opponent's defense. Despite the avid attempts to train with his lightsaber, Tomas' lack of force sensitivity prevented him from achieving anything more than a basic level of dueling skill likely equivalent to that of a Padawan. Later in the year, Tomas struck a deal with his closest allies that net him a new flagship - the clan's [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] - in exchange for his controlling interests in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector, minus the ecumenopolis Woldona VII.

It was revealed near the beginning of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]) that Tomas had managed to produce more than eight hundred of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] proprietary [[Viper|Viper-class starfighters]] over a ten-month period through their negligence over access to the engineering specifications. The syndicate had failed to remove the blueprints from the shipyards in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system, though an unavoidable backdoor into the shared database system of the shipyards allowed the syndicate to remotely corrupt the engineering data after they realized their mistake. It proved far too late, however, as their error had allowed Tomas to produce more than four billion credits worth of [[Viper|Vipers]], valued on the market at five million credits each at the time of production. The market price for a single [[Viper|Viper-class starfighter]] dropped by fifty percent to two and a half million credits by the midpoint of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), however, after a large secondary supply flooded the market and [[Black Sun]] itself began to sell the fighters, likely in an attempt to both cash in on the demand due to their financial troubles and to create the appearance that the further release of their proprietary technology had barely affected the syndicate.

After the [[War for the Hosnian System]] began on the 195th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas quickly dropped his tasks in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system and set course for [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] in his [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wing interceptor]]. Despite the cramped, two-day trip, he arrived on the 198th day and immediately set to claiming land rights for future sale, securing legal ownership of five grids on [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=6243 Hosnian Prime] at the cost of eighteen million and six hundred thousand credits. He quickly sold the land rights to the [[New Republic]] for one hundred and seventy-five million credits, netting him a quick and tidy profit of just over one hundred and fifty-six million credits, immediately ensuring that the trip would be profitable. Afterward, the tremendous number of individuals and organizations flooding into the system in their own attempts to profit seemed to affect Tomas in a strange way. It was almost as if he could sense the growing number of people with hostile intent and it overwhelmed his senses, refusing to allow him any time to think or concentrate. He lost control of himself over the next several days but eventually snapped out of it, only to realize that he had hunted down and slaughtered more than three hundred sentients across three of the system's planets, cutting them down with his lightsaber as they had attempted to build basic infrastructure for their respective employers - the [[Galactic Empire]], [[Mecrosa]], and Veilhal Nomads. Torn with grief and regret over his actions, he departed the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system and returned to [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]], immediately seeking out a trusted physician to provide a throughout examination and explanation for his loss of control. Even after a substantial number of tests, the doctor simply concluded that one of his cybernetic implants had likely malfunctioned and triggered a psychotic episode.

Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), it somehow slipped into public knowledge that Tomas owned a hidden space station attached to an asteroid deep within [[the Maw]], an unstable and dangerous cluster of black holes located in the [[Kessel]] sector. Rumors surrounding the asteroid hideout suggest that it serves as a high-security prison for dangerous individuals from throughout the galaxy, sent and paid for by governments unable or unwilling to contain or execute the deadly parties. Paid handsomely for housing the risky prisoners, Tomas had ironically named the station ''Shelter'' and entrusted an unknown business associate with managing the prison for him.

==Establishing Sevetta==
Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), the remnants of the [[Gree Trade Authority]] banded together to re-emerge as the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], a collection of companies operating out of the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. Mirroring the former organization of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]], Tomas was appointed as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the conglomerate while each company's leaders became vice presidents and department heads in the overarching organization. [[DefenStar Ltd.]] was established as the flagship company for the conglomerate on [[Year 19|19.323]], [[Golan Arms]] opened on [[Year 19|19.343]], [[LodeCorp Mining]] re-opened on [[Year 20|20.002]], and [[Golan Construction]] was acquired and the [[Zaltin Corporation]] incorporated both on [[Year 20|20.160]] ([[CGT]])

When much of [[Helen Hawk|Helen Hawk's]] holdings were publicly auctioned off in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]) following her apprehension by the [[New Republic]], Tomas leveraged the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] substantial financial power to scoop up an [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter]], an [[MC-60 Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80a Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80b Star Cruiser]], and a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] for an undisclosed number of credits. The [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter|V-wing]] was sold to [[Sirius Cyan]] for five hundred million credits, while the [[MC-60 Star Cruiser|MC-60]] was traded to Robby Rae for a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] and a squadron of [[A/SF-01 B-wing Starfighter|B-wings]]; the destroyer was subsequently resold to Jimmy Roggeman for one and a half billion credits while the B-wings were individually sold to [[Drax Whittler]], Lazarus Grimm, [[Diabolus`ut Persolvo]], and [[Lorenzas Atticus]] for a combined two and three quarter billion credits. The [[MC-80a Star Cruiser|MC-80a]] was sold to [[Lilith Delcroix]] for five billion credits while the [[MC-80b Star Cruiser|MC-80b]] was sold to Esu Kyouto for eight billion credits. The final [[Sabaoth Destroyer]], however, was purchased primarily for the almost six billion credits worth of droids stored aboard which Tomas intended to sell at the next [[Jawa Swap Meet]] in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]). Even with reduced sales pricing of droids due to the increase of supply outweighing market demand, Tomas earned the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] four and a half billion credits of pure net profit from the business venture.

==The Mando'ade==
Although the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] monthly cash flow and net profits year-to-date were both in the billions of credits, Tomas grew disillusioned with running the conglomerate - just as he had with the [[Gree Trade Authority]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]). When he was approached by Mand'alor [[Kai Oryk]] about the formation of a new [[Mandalorian]] government near the mid-point of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas realized that his desire to return to the roots of his culture far outweighed the continued business success he had been pursuing for the past decade. He quietly set to disbanding the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and bringing [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], now under the leadership of his nephew [[Victor o`Cuinn]], under the banner of [[Mando'ade]]. [[DefenStar Ltd.]], [[Golan Construction]], and [[LodeCorp Mining]] were closed, while the [[Zaltin Corporation]] became a nationalized faction of [[Mando'ade]]; [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] assumed ownership and operation of [[Golan Arms]]. The [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] effectively shut its doors on [[Year 20|20.206]] ([[CGT]]) and [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] joined up [[Mando'ade]], with Tomas being granted the rank of Ko'verd and a position on the leadership council.

Tomas withdrew from the public eye and focused on his work within both [[Mando'ade]] and [[Dael'mor]]. Following the defection of [[CorSec]] to The Cooperative in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas purchased critical infrastructure on the world of [https://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=2843 Columus] from Jeff Kronn for a small fortune. In the confusion and aftermath of [[CorSec|CorSec's]] officers betraying their [[Galactic Empire]] masters, Tomas as able to secure the local population's loyalty and immediately sought to sell his holdings and influence for a profit. Soon after, Urkh Malal purchased Tomas' investment, earning the latter a reported two and a half billion credit profit in less than two months.

When the [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]] system was discovered near the end of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas established an allied coalition consisting of three different groups, which set course to the [[Western Reaches]] sector in an attempt to stake their claim. While they arrived barely in time to secure the smallest of land parcels in [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]], itself, they initiated a scouting mission within the sector due to rumors of another untouched system in the area. When they discovered the [[Takodana (System)|Takodana]] system on the 313th day of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), they quickly realize that the [[Trade Federation]] had beaten them there by approximately five days. Despite the head start and their colonization efforts underway, the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] had not yet solidified their grip over the planet and the coalition quickly moved to secure their own land rights on the planet. With the desire to prevent any bloodshed or hostilities with the [[Trade Federation]], Tomas opened negotiations with Duceroy Salamku Derov over the sale of their holdings and the cease of coalition operations on the world. A deal was struck and the coalition walked away with five hundred million credits for their troubles, having handed the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] their land and intel.

==Blue Star Dominion==
At the beginning of [[Year 21]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas decided that it was time for his people to set off on their own again. [[LodeCorp Mining]] was once again established on Day 12 to serve as a front organization for the group's activities, though it would come to grow into something much larger. After the fall of the [[New Republic]], [[LodeCorp Mining|LodeCorp]] established a mutual defense pact with the [[Rebel Alliance]] and re-confirmed its commitment against the [[Imperial Union]], later becoming a founding member of the [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] on Day 127 alongside the [[The Hyporian Commonwealth (Year 20 - Year 21)|Hyporian Commonwealth]], [[Mando'ade]], the [[Rebel Alliance]], and Stryker Military Services. The [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] was a regional defense treaty signed during the War for the Republic to defend the Galactic Southeast from an anticipated [[Imperial Union]] offensive. Despite the concern, [[Imperial Union]] activity was limited to the sectors of the former [[New Republic]] and territory sympathetic to the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] in the northern portions of the [[Outer Rim]].

On the 210th day, the [[Order of the One Sith]] became fractured upon the betrayal of [[Morgan Sathel]] and [[Kaze Zill]], who then turned on each other. [[Kaze Zill|Kaze]] was able to seize control of the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] world of [[Venaari]], which Tomas foresaw an opportunity with and purchased for three billion credits. A depot station orbiting the world was purchased from [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for a hundred and fifty million credits, while operatives were dispatched to bypass and disable the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] leader [[Darin Byrch|Darin Byrch's]] planetary shield network. While the operatives were en route, however, [[Darin Byrch|Darin]] agreed to exchange the shield network for one and a half billion credits - granting Tomas complete control. He was able to negotiate the resale of [[Venaari]] back to [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for eight billion credits, netting Tomas more than three billion credits in profit.

The desire to expand led to the establishment of the [[Blue Star Dominion]] as a sovereign government of the [[Sevetta]] sector and [[Dagu (System)|Dagu]] system on the 21st day of [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). On Day 80, Dominion Command was established to oversee operations and consisted of Cedron Tryonel, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn|Taranjeek o`Cuinn]], and Tomas o`Cuinn.

The [[Blue Star Dominion]] participated in the [[Tolonda Conflict]] led by the [[Jedi Order]] and took part in both the [[Jedi Order|Jedi's]] Operation ROID RAGE and its own Operation Appropriation. Operation Appropriation was the codename for a covert military action conducted by the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion's]] naval and marine forces to seize and destroy numerous ships owned by the [[Sith Imperium]]. With the majority of the Imperium's forces scrambling in response to their late discovery of the [[Jedi Order|Jedi Order's]] Operation ROID RAGE, Dominion Marshal Tomas o`Cuinn quietly outlined a plan with Sith Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau]], an independent operative sympathetic to the rebel cause, to launch a clandestine assault behind enemy lines. Calculating that they had a limited window of opportunity to strike, the Dominion borrowed two local [[Modular Taskforce Cruiser|Modular Taskforce Cruisers]] from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] to bring their total in the [[Tolonda]] sector to three. Two of the cruisers were dispatched to the [[Tamra (System)|Tamra]] system under the commands of Tomas and Taranjeek o`Cuinn while the third was committed to the [[Oshora (System)|Oshora]] system under the command of [[Kaze Zill]]. Each of the warships was manned by several companies of Dominion marines and escorted to the outskirts of their respective target systems by the Dominion Navy, which broke off outside of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] sensor range in an effort to maintain the cruiser's stealth. Transmitting false IFF codes, each cruiser casually made its approach into the respective system and successfully evaded notice by the Sith. In the early hours of the morning on Day 60, Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau|Tau]] transferred the access codes of the entire [[Sith Imperium]] fleet to Dominion Command, signaling execution of the plan. With much of the Imperium's personnel occupied elsewhere, the vessels in the target areas were either manned by only skeleton crews or unmanned entirely. Dominion marines rapidly executed boarding maneuvers on hundreds of ships in the three locations, quietly subduing the confused and quickly overwhelmed crews before they could raise any alarm and captured the bridges. Tractor beams from the cruisers swiftly moved the occupied vessels into their docking bays while others were flown and docked manually. The Dominion successfully seized over three hundred of the Sith Imperium's ships before the transfer of access codes was noticed and a remote reset command was sent to the fleet, prompting a hasty exit from the system for the cruisers amid the confusion and leaving behind a chaotic embarrassment for the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] to wake up to. At least two [[BFF-1 Bulk Freighter|BFF-1 bulk freighters]] were destroyed during the operation, reportedly at the hands of their own crew. An unconfirmed report from across the galaxy in the Ottega system alleged that, at the same time as the Dominion operation, an [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] [[Mammoth-class Heavy Hauler|Mammoth-class heavy hauler]] was mysteriously destroyed by what local authorities described as a remote slicing attack that exploited its fuel line. Analysts throughout the galaxy have since estimated that the Imperium lost a quarter of their entire naval fleet. Many of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] lost vessels were later used as target practice and subsequently destroyed by a Rebel task force deployed to the Petabys Conflict Zone during an unrelated operation.

After the [[Galactic Empire|Galactic Empire's]] triumph over the [[New Republic]] in [[Year 21]], months of subsequent conflict and territorial changes left thousands of outposts abandoned throughout the [[Outer Rim]]. One of these vacated bases, known as Stardew Station, was marked as an unimportant observatory at the edge of the galaxy in low-level [[New Republic]] files, yet no coordinates were included. As the combat being waged between the [[Imperial Union]] and Rebels dragged on, forces from both sides haphazardly uncovered fragments of intelligence that were carelessly secured and sloppily transmitted. The Information Operations Network (ION), a Rebel-developed intelligence tool, frequently intercepted slivers of the relayed data in an attempt to piece together the information as if it were a puzzle. It was through ION that Stardew Station was first flagged as a location of interest in [[Year 22]] due to the unusual personnel assignments prior to the outpost's desertion; the research scientists attached to the station specialized in interstellar navigation, advanced weapons development, metallurgy engineering, and progressive propulsion technologies. After the location of interested was flagged, it became easier for ION to rapidly process future incoming data relevant to that location and, after a few weeks longer, coordinates for Stardew were ascertained - the [[Pelgrin]] sector. A report was automatically generated for review by an analyst, who examined the data and determined that Stardew was worth exploring. A joint task force was formed between two nearby Rebel groups, the [[Blue Star Dominion]] and Stryker Military Services, and dispatched to investigate Stardew Station. Warden [[Kaze Zill]] was deployed to lead a detachment of Dominion Ghosts as the task force's ground unit, while Stryker's Mika Noris commanded a squadron of elite pilots to provide both naval superiority and transportation. Upon arrival at Stardew's coordinates, the task force fell under immediate attack by a coalition of pirate organizations intent on plundering the station's secrets. While his squadron engaged the pirate vessels, Noris skillfully hacked into the station's control systems, disabling the automated defenses and securing the Ghosts an opening to insert into Stardew. The Ghosts advanced through the station, combating the pirate crew who proved limited challenge for the force users and their disciplined troops. Unsupported by the station's defenses that Noris previously disabled, the pirate armada realized heavy casualties to the superior Stryker pilots. Losing contact with their forces inside as the Dominion secured the station, the pirate remnants disengaged and withdrew from Stardew. Stardew Station played host to a classified research and development program for the [[New Republic]]. The scientist's mission was to develop an advanced attack corvette capable of serving as a fleet escort picket ship and long-range patrol craft, along with countering the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] formidable DP-20c gunship. While most of the technological research had been completed and verified, the design team had not yet engineered the actual vessel. As the remnants of the [[New Republic]] were still reforming into the [[Rebel Alliance]] elsewhere in the galaxy, it was determined that completing the development of this ship was best suited to the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] and Stryker. Assisted by ION, research teams led by the Dominion's Marshal Cedron Tryonel and Stryker's Jaria Feri partnered to develop the [[MC-30b Corvette]]. Working prototypes were assembled soon after completion of the design and the vessel was quickly put into service.

Upon investigating distress calls on Day 331 of [[Year 22]], the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] discovered the lost system of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] in their capital sector of [[Sevetta]]. Rapidly perceiving that the sole planet was home to heavily-entrenched criminal cartels, Dominion Command called upon their allies for assistance in emancipating the oppressed population of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] spearheaded Operation Kowak, publicly known as the [[Battle for Kowak]], and led a large Rebel coalition to successfully liberate [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] from the criminal warlords and protect the system from potential opportunists. The coalition consisted of [[The Antarian Rangers]], [[-ARK-]], [[DOM Arsenal]], [[The Exchange]], [[Grand Duchy of Froz]], [[The Invid Order]], [[Jedi Order]], [[Mando'ade]], [[Rebel_Alliance_(Year_21)|Rebel Alliance]], [[The Resistance]], [[Rogue Squadron]], [[Stryker Military Services]], [[Ternion Corps]], and [[TIEFE]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] issued a public travel advisory on Day 332<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46276 Kowak System Travel Restriction (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 332)]</ref>, claiming control of the system and promising military action against potential invaders. Throughout the operation, the Rebel coalition continuously shipped in infantry battalions, thousands of starfighters, dozens of corvettes, and powerful capital warships such [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] and Mon Calamari Star Cruisers. [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] was fully secured on Day 337<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46293 Dominion Liberates the Kowak System (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 339)]</ref>, leading to the scaling down of the coalition's operations during the following weeks.

=Supplemental Information=
===Description===
: "''I'm just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe.''"
Tomas is a [[Hapan]] [[Category:Males|male]] of standard build standing 1.8 meters in height, rather unimposing and disarming in appearance. Despite being born in Year 55 ([[BCGT]]) and being more than seventy years old, his physical body is approximately three decades younger due to the years spent in suspended animation. Prior to skin replacement, his torso had worn a half-lifetime of scars from years spent training and fighting. Very rarely will he shed the protection of his custom-forged set of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=69 heavy battle armour] and [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=70 helmet]. A [[DLT-20a]] blaster rifle hangs on his back, held by a sling around his torso, while a pair of lightsabers hang off of his belt which also conceals the blade of a sheathed knife. To supplement the blaster's mid-range capabilities, Cuinn carries a pair of modified [[ELG-3A]] blasters for closer engagements, one strapped to his left thigh and the other on the rear of his belt.

===Cybernetics===
: "''He is a Borg who died last night. You know the term, I'm sure. Half human…half mechanical droid. Yet the man half of him had a soul, or so my faith believes.''"
Due to his extensive cybernetic implants, he could easily be classified as more cyborg than anything else. Unusually, the majority of these cybernetics are not enhancements but replacements for the physical damage received from events in Cuinn's past. The dermis and epidermis of his chest have been permanently supplanted with synthskin due to extensive second-degree burns and blunt impact trauma. A Lornan implant, the exact model number unknown, resides on his brain stem to regulate the electrical currents in his body while basic ear augmentations have been installed to generate a standard level of hearing. A pair of automated lungs draws oxygen in place of the discarded originals. Military-grade optical implants with customized, commercial-grade software replaced his damaged-beyond-repair eyes, though their only benefit over standard vision is a slight increase in night vision. Most of Cuinn's joints have been augmented with durasteel pins for added durability, albeit at the cost of their overall ranges of motion. The only cybernetic that could fairly be classified as an enhancement would be his custom-engineered arms. The engineering standards and design specifications are not known outside of a small, trusted circle, though public reports suggest that his arm strength and muscular endurance is much greater than it naturally should be.

===Trading Career===
: "''The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.''"
Tomas o`Cuinn is one of the most well-known and successful traders in the galaxy. His trading career began with [http://market.centrepointstation.com/details.php?lid=208519 the sale] of a [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Light_Freighters&ID=167 Nu-Class Attack Shuttle], which was gifted to him, to Leah Asalah on the 331st day of [[Year 13]] ([[CGT]]). He immediately adopted a profit-based business model and used the liquid capital from his initial sale to jump-start a starship trafficking business, purchasing derelict vessels for a fraction of their value and restoring them for profitable resale. Since then, his resale business has reportedly earned him billions of credits in net profit, though the early numbers are presumably inflated due to the widely-fluctuating market value of starships and his assignment from [[Black Sun]] to sell off [[The_Guild_Bank|The Guild Bank's]] assets in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). According to public rumor, his largest and most profitable transaction was his sale of controlling stake in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to [[Black Sun]] in exchange for their ownership of the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] and [[Homon (System)|Homon]] star systems, though no public records of trade have been discovered for this transaction. On the 217th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged his status as a reputable businessman in order to steal twenty billion credits from the [[Aurodium Legion]], likely the largest trade theft on known galactic record.

===Armor & Armament===
: "''My armor insures my victory in hand-to-hand combat.''"
Though heavily outfitted, Cuinn believes in the value of allies and, as such, has cultivated a highly cohesive unit of veteran [[Abyssin]] soldiers, twelve-strong, that work closely with him on various missions. His personal [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Military&ID=7 Droideka], nicknamed Ver'gebuir, is his constant companion and bodyguard regardless of location. Due to his age, Tomas' physical dexterity and speed have declined and, as a result, has come to rely on his allies, heavy armour, and cunning to make up the difference.

===A Matter of Race (Metamorphosis Plague)===
: "''Well let's have a look at you. Hmm. Biped. More or less symmetrical. Far less hair than the last one. Opposable digits. Mostly water hey?''"
It is unknown whether Cuinn was personally affected when the [[Metamorphosis Plague]] raged across the galaxy in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). However, numerous reports from routine security scans have since surfaced with varying results in regards to his DNA. These conflicting scans, all between [[Year 14]] and [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), have classified him as [[Amani]], [[Anx]], [[Anzati]], Chagrian, Codru-Ji, [[Diathim]], [[Gotal]], [[Kaleesh]], Kushiban, [[Mirialan]], Vurk, and [[Whiphid]]. While his physical appearance is obviously that of a [[Human]] male, Tomas has said simply that he was injected with an experimental DNA scrambler while working as an operative for [[Black Sun|Black Watch]], the purpose of which was to mask his identity from enemy detection and prevent collection and/or manipulation of his DNA. While this claim isn't likely to be proven anytime soon, there are a number of rumors in circulation about Cuinn's actual race, the most interesting of which suggests that he is actually [[Clawdite]]. He has dismissed these rumors as silliness, publicly maintaining that he is simply a true-born [[Human]] of [[Hapan]] ancestry. At any point, some passive scan data has suggested that Tomas is actually more cybernetic than flesh, prompting further theories that he no longer fits into the confines of any one race - unless that race is cyborg.

[[Tomas o`Cuinn]] (pronounced /toʊˈmɑːs oʊˈkwɪn/) is a well-known businessman, industrial specialist, and military commander. He is one of three Marshals of the [[Blue Star Dominion]], Waadas'alor of [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], Governor of the [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector, and Patriarch of Clan o`Cuinn. Tomas is best known for founding the [[Gree Trade Authority]], [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and [[Blue Star Dominion]] between [[Year 15]] and [[Year 23]] ([[CGT]]). He originally gained widespread recognition for his highly-advertised trading career along with galactic notoriety for his public position with the [[Black Sun|Black Sun]] crime syndicate before being dismissed from the organization at the end of [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). He has also served as a Theater Commander and third-in-command of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and as Deputy Secretary-General of the [[Galactic Alliance]].

<td><center>Tomas, left, training the clone troopers on [[Kamino]] circa Year 30 ([[BCGT]])</center></td>

</table></center>
Per the earliest relevant records, Tomas o`Cuinn, 20 years old, served as the youngest of seventy-five [[Mandalorian]] members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' - ''[[Mando'a]]'' for "Those Who No Longer Exist" - which was formed to train the clone commandos for the [[Galactic Republic]] on the watery world of [[Kamino]] in Year 35 ([[BCGT]]). For close to ten years, Tomas and the other members of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' served as training sergeants for the elite clone commandos of the Grand Army. These battle-proven sergeants taught the ten thousand commandos in a variety of ways, including teamwork, infiltration methods, demolition techniques, assassination and much more. Along with imparting their combat prowess and tactical skills, the [[Mandalorian]] trainers also included their cultural customs and way of life, believing it important that the clones know of their heritage - especially since their genetic template was a prominent [[Mandalorian]] - despite objections from the [[Kaminoan|Kaminoans]]. When the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems]] launched attacks against the [[Galactic Republic]] in the Sumitra and Centrality sectors in Year 25 ([[BCGT]]), the previously secret clone troopers were revealed and organized into the Grand Army of the [[Galactic Republic|Republic]]; this newly organized army was immediately deployed in response to the attacks. Thus begins the Clone Wars. With their contract ended, many of the ''Cuy'val Dar'' departed [[Kamino]] and returned to their former lives, though a few remained to train future generations of clones; Tomas was among those who left.

Despite having fulfilled the decade-long training mission, Tomas was far too duty-oriented to take any sort of vacation and, as such, soon accepted a contract on an obscure [[Outer Rim]] [[planet|world]]; the job consisted of a physical security consultation for the relatively unimportant planet's government. A hideout had been recently established in the natural caves of the planet's mountains and had already proved to be a threat as the enforcers of the newly-arrived criminal organization, known as -'''REDACTED'''-, began raiding the lightly-defended towns. The planet's militia was poorly trained and equipped - a far cry from the force required to ensure security and drive the unwanted raiders off of the planet. When the criminal enforcers began to invade and seize control of entire towns, the government sought aid from the [[Galactic Republic]], but, as a non-member, their pleas were all but ignored - largely due to the start of the Clone Wars. When the government, with nowhere else to turn, began offering contracts to mercenaries for their assistance, Tomas o`Cuinn answered the call.

Realizing that a simple consultation was far from sufficient, Tomas renegotiated the contract and set to training the militiamen in combat techniques that would prove effective when harassing a larger and better-equipped force. Over the course of almost a year, the militia learned to operate as small squads capable of rapid movement, using the terrain and darkness of night to engage in unconventional warfare against the overconfident force of organized raiders who, through their shared combat experience and uniquely strict leadership hierarchy, acted almost the same as a conventional army. To demonstrate that their hostile actions would no longer be tolerated and that the militia was capable of hurting them, Tomas instructed them in irregular and psychological warfare such as guerrilla tactics and booby traps. Taught to gather intelligence prior to any operation, the militiamen would strike rapidly at the enemy forces and disappear just as quickly, injuring or killing and sowing confusion among the criminal ranks. Coupling this with strategically-placed booby traps proved effective in decreasing morale and introducing fear into the gang's soldiers, limiting their combat capacity and ending their aggressive advances against the planet's towns.

</table></center>

As Year 23 ([[BCGT]]) rolled around, the criminal force's advance had been effectively stopped, and Tomas switched strategy and worked to turn the militia - now swelling with experience and confidence earned from success - into a highly disciplined and effective military force. Just as the new training regime was beginning, however, -'''REDACTED'''- quietly brought in its heavy hitters along with reinforcements to deal with the planet's unexpected resistance to subjugation. A surprise orbital bombardment on the militia's "hidden" training base caught the unsuspecting Tomas off guard, bringing the entire compound down around him and his trainees. Tomas, mortally-wounded from the structure collapsing on him, was recovered by -'''REDACTED'''- enforcers. With the knowledge that he had been the source of their troubles on the planet, local -'''REDACTED'''- leadership made the decision to keep Tomas alive - only long enough to suffer for his insolence. To this end, his shattered arms were amputated and replaced with basic cybernetic limbs, though they were useless for all but the most basic of tasks. A Lornan implant was installed into his brain to regulate his body's electrical current since it was now incapable of doing such naturally. A cheap ear implant was installed to recover his diminished hearing - they figured he should have to suffer his own screams. His lungs, damaged beyond repair by the chemical asphyxiation and smoke inhalation caused by the bombardment, were removed and replaced with a cybernetic pair. His damaged eyes and other injuries, however, weren't deemed as life-threatening.

After the string of surgeries and a brief stint in a bacta tank, Tomas was deemed fit to undergo an extensive program of systematic torture, attacking a specific area of the body at a time over the course of several months - always fixed up overnight in a bacta tank for the fresh treatment of pain the following day. This regulated torture lasted for two years, until -'''REDACTED'''- leadership decided the expense was no longer worth the continued punishment and opted to turn Cuinn into a trophy, displayed publicly to serve as a visible reminder of what happened to those who crossed them. The most effective process turned out to be carbon-freezing, with the design-intended tibanna gas being replaced with a [[Mandalorian]] named Tomas. He would hang on display for three decades, in the carbon-induced state of suspended animation, until the normal turnover of leadership resulted in his transgressions being forgotten and the outdated carbonite figure being removed and discarded. Due to his already-diminished physical condition, such as his almost non-existent eyesight, the standard effects of long-term suspended animation were barely noticeable, though what damage did occur was minimized by his cybernetic "enhancements" and eventually healed with an impressive amount of bacta when he was finally thawed from his carbonite imprisonment.

==Family. Honour. Profit.==
: "''It is a vast criminal syndicate...its influence felt on every planet from the Core Worlds to the Outer Rim. Black Sun has existed for hundreds of years and embedded itself in the very fiber of the galaxy. The resources at its disposal are almost limitless. The soldiers under its command number in the tens of thousands. The ignorant even call it the most powerful force in the known universe.''"
While it is not public knowledge what happened after his carbonite frame was discarded, Cuinn eventually emerged as an officer for the [[Black Sun]] crime syndicate. While his history with the syndicate was shrouded in secrecy, many of the details have been released since his expulsion from the organization in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). Originally recruited as a small-time enforcer, Tomas quickly worked his way up the ranks by producing results through sheer dedication and a hands-on work style. Most of his earned salary went towards improving his cybernetics, gradually returning the range of physical capabilities he'd enjoyed decades before. Of his career in [[Black Sun]], what is known is that he is a veteran of both the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, constructing homes and jobs for more than one hundred and fifty-five billion civilians and creating over one billion credits in additional monthly revenue for the syndicate. He also fought against the [[United_Rebel_Front|United Rebel Front]] during the Battle of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=5923 Axxila], securing complete control of the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=203 Ciutric Sector]. He also served as the Chief Operating Officer of the (now defunct) [[Hyrotii Corporation]] for some time, providing assistance to his good friend [[Rexan Vyrim]] during a period of increased raw material requirements. Cuinn personally re-wrote the [[Black Sun]] [http://holocron.swcombine.com/wiki/Black_Sun#Code_of_Conduct Code of Conduct], expanding its coverage and refining the format for an increased understanding, along with designing the entire training program that turned inexperienced recruits into knowledgeable and efficient members. He served as the middle ground between the Family Council and junior members, handling various personnel issues and relaying council orders throughout the chain of command. Near the end of his career with the syndicate, Cuinn was the highest-ranking officer and headed up the ("Indoctrination") Recruitment and Training division, while also working as an intelligence officer and senior member of [[Black Sun|Black Watch]].

Shortly after the [[Black Sun]] takeover of [[Xanxus Drol|Xanxus Drol’s]] company, [[The Guild Bank]], in early-to-mid [[Year 14|Year 14]] ([[CGT]]), Cuinn publicly sold off hundreds of the seized assets for vastly reduced prices compared to the market standard at the time. Cuinn's sales, even at reduced pricing, resulted in a net profit of almost two billion galactic credits for [[Black Sun]]. He was rewarded with a portion of the profits and an extra promotion for his role in the affair along with quickly accomplishing the massive amount of additional work without issue. The overwhelming number of sales and unusually low pricing also helped to build his public presence in the trading community.

His proven loyalty and dedicated work ethic were rewarded numerous times by both Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]] and Dark Princess [[Cait Catra]]. Despite a career demanding nothing short of respect, one of [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander von Ismay’s]] initial moves as the Dark Prince usurper was to force Cuinn out of the syndicate on the 354th day of [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). [[Alexander von Ismay|Alexander]] followed this by blacklisting and declaring Cuinn an enemy of [[Black Sun]] on the first day of [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]).

==The Opportunity of Gree==
: "''I know you're familiar with the ancient Rakata Infinite Empire. The Gree predate them by eons.''"
Tomas settled in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, accepting a position with the local Gree Enclave government as a security consultant to update the system's defenses from years of neglect. He immediately set himself to designing and overseeing construction on a series of shield networks and anti-orbital weapon platforms on each of the system's planets whilst simultaneously ordering the fabrication of new defensive and early warning space stations along the system's outer perimeter. His efforts eventually led to the founding of the [[Gree Trade Authority]], a multi-billion credit trade and security company that focused on furthering the system's development. He switched his focus toward rebuilding the infrastructure that was suppressed during [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lengthy occupation. Using his knowledge from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=4332 Woldona VII] and [[Malicar_II_(Planet)|Malicar II]] development projects, he tasked the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority]] with construction infrastructure on [[Gree IV]], promoting increased immigration, tourism, and intersystem commerce.<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39174 Creating Jobs, Building Lives: Gree Trade Authority Sets Economic Records (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 16 Day 226)]</ref>.

[[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] formed numerous naval fleets to defend the system and ensure the safety of all citizens and visitors; chief among these was the impressive [[Aliit Dael'mor|Dael'mor]] fleet to help deter future attacks, formed around the former [[Black Sun]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial-class]] and [[Victory Star Destroyer|Victory-class]] [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]]. Supporting these fleets was a multi-tiered ring of defensive space stations of varying designs, including the Ataturk-class and Golan models I & II, placed in strategic locations throughout [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Placed along the outer edges of the system, a ring of XQ1-series platforms served as customs checkpoints, an advanced warning system, and the initial line of defense against pirates or other would-be invaders. Each of the platforms was supported by a [[Corona-class frigate|''Corona''-class frigate]] and sheltered two starfighter squadrons - one comprised of [[Y-wing]]s and the other of [[R-41 Starchasers|R-41 starchasers]] - for defense. An [[Imperial]] fleet arrived unexpectedly in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system in mid-[[Year 16]] ([[CGT]]), prompting the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to lock down planetary accesses and deploy its fleets in a defensive perimeter around the planets. The [[Galactic Empire]] had dispatched two [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyers]], three [[Victory Star Destroyer I|Victory I-class Star Destroyers]], and one [[Carrack/S-class Light Cruiser|Carrack/S-class light cruiser]] to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system at the behest and begging of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] Dark Prince, [[Alexander von Ismay]], due to his inability to muster their own [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] for such a show of force. While the [[Imperial]] fleet was certainly impressive, the Golan stations and [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] naval fleets would have been more than enough of a match to defend the system. However, the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] ships maintained a safe distance from [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] perimeter and simply flew reconnaissance sorties with a handful of [[TIE/sr Starfighter|TIE scouts]] whilst an [[Imperial]] Director sent casual threats to Tomas regarding [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] seized [[Star Destroyers]]. Eventually, the Imperial fleet departed, but this event spurred the [[Gree Trade Authority]] to open formal diplomatic relations with the [[New Republic]] and [[Galactic Alliance]]. Tomas knew that the Imperials would return in the future, and in greater number.

After former Underlord [[Alexander von Ismay]] was kicked out of [[Black Sun]] for petty theft and attempted blackmail, Tomas reached out to the new Dark Prince, [[Jeor Knight]], and the Family Council in an effort to quell the hostilities created by [[Alexander von Ismay|Ismay]] years before. Negotiations between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and [[Black Sun]] resulted in improved relations between the groups, as Tomas personally saw to the release of approximately one billion credits worth of [[Black Sun]]-owned vehicles that had been confiscated by [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]]. Dozens of crates containing various equipment owned by the syndicate were also released to a [[Black Sun]] pilot. Forty-two highly-trained operatives in the employ of Vigo and former Dark Prince [[Banquo Knox]], and their rare and expensive equipment, were released from custody after years of imprisonment. [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] also publicly supported [[Black Sun]] in the Galactic News System<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39984 Black Sun - A Modern History Lesson (Posted by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 17 Day 167)]</ref> when the [[ViskCor News Network]] posted propaganda against the syndicate<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=39979 Black Sun's Future in Imperial Union Uncertain (Hacked by Rayus Kestyn on Year 17 Day 166)]</ref>.

Early in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged a [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] employment opportunity to lure the notorious Varro Belle to [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. Belle was the inside man in a [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] operation that allowed the capture of over a dozen [[Krath Dynasty]] officers, the impounding of a reported twenty-five hundred restricted starfighters, and the seizure of between twelve and thirty thousand crates of various equipment. Belle personally detained [[Lazarus Kell]], the current Emperor of [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]], during the operation's climax, and stole [[Lazarus Kell|Kell's]] prized lightsaber. The [[Krath Dynasty]] reported their losses two days later, on [[Year 17|17.262]] ([[CGT]])<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40212 Traitors strike from within the Krath (Posted by Ellias Aubec on Year 17 Day 262)]</ref>, and subsequently offered a five hundred million credit reward for his capture. Due to the [[Galactic Alliance]] and [[Krath Dynasty]] desperately wanting to see Varro Belle in cuffs, Tomas offered the criminal employment in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] star system, working construction for the [[Gree Trade Authority]]. Since Belle was a highly wanted criminal, he was desperate in seeking neutral employment in the mostly lawless [[Outer Rim Territories]] - but, as he soon learned, [[Gree (System)|Gree]] does not conform to the loose standards of law enforcement common throughout the region. After a few weeks of building trust, along with directly profiting from his labor, Tomas led a team of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] most experienced soldiers and detained Belle in orbit of the [[Gree IV]] gas giant. While Belle chose to fight back against his arrest, he was quickly overpowered by the cybernetic [[Mandalorian]] supported by an elite squad of [[Abyssin]] troops. A press release was provided to the galaxy on [[Year 18|18.53]] ([[CGT]]), less than twelve hours after his capture<ref>[http://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=40566 Gree Press Release: Belles Are Ringing (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 18 Day 53)]</ref>. [[Lazarus Kell]], who had secured his release from [[Imperial Union]] custody and ascended the [[Krath Dynasty]] throne as Emperor, was eager to see Belle extradited from [[Gree (System)|Gree]] to [[Krath Dynasty|Krath]] to answer for his crimes. It was [[Krath Dynasty|Krath's]] Lord Imperator [[Talak Kasra]] that discussed the extradition with [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and, upon the successful negotiation, traveled to the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to retrieve the prisoner. After the ordeal was finished, Tomas was overheard as stating that Belle's labor was estimated to have increased the [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree Trade Authority's]] gross monthly income by an approximate ten million credits.

From when the [[Gree Trade Authority]] was founded near the midpoint of [[Year 15]] to early [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree IV]] gas giant was the major investment and development project that consumed the majority of Tomas's time and attention. Under [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] leadership, the [[planet]] had simply served as a mining platform for tibanna gas; under the [[Gree Trade Authority|Authority's]] management, however, the mining operations were greatly expanded with an emphasis on worker safety, mining process improvements, and employee morale. With an extensive investment campaign into the equipment and training for every mine worker, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was able to greatly increase the mining operation's size and, with its own investments and the increasing mine profits, extensively develop the system of interlinked platform cities across the gas giant's atmosphere. [[Gree IV]] housed barely one million citizens in [[Year 15]] ([[CGT]]), but by [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), more than ten billion individuals would call the gas giant their home - an increase of ten thousand percent. The planet's economy grew with its population and become one of the largest, healthiest, and safest centers for trade and commerce in the [[Outer Rim]]. The success and development of [[Gree IV]] also led to the [[Gree Trade Authority]] being recognized by the [[galaxy]] as the governing entity of the entire [[Gree (Sector)|Gree]] sector, surpassing and replacing the [[Black Sun]] criminal syndicate.

==Command in the Resistance==
: "''So you're with the Resistance?''"
: "''Obviously. Yes I am. I'm with the Resistance, yeah. I am with the Resistance.''"
: "''I've never met a Resistance fighter before.''"
: "''Well this is what we look like, some of us. Others look different.''"
Knowing [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree's]] precarious stance in the heart of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] territory, Tomas had worked in secret to support and ally his conglomerate with the [[New Republic]]. By [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), the [[Gree Trade Authority]] (and it's short-lived successor, the [[Gree Enclave]]) had signed a non-aggression pact with [[The Krath|the Krath]] and an alliance with the [[New Republic]], along with a technology agreement granting tier one access to the latter's technology. Despite this, [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] was acutely aware of how little a few powerful warships would matter if the [[Galactic Empire]] sent another fleet to their system. Tomas reached out to an old friend, [[The Resistance|Resistance]] Commander and former Deputy Director of [[New Republic|New Republic Intelligence]] Cedron Tryonel, and negotiations began regarding a merger between [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] and the [[The Resistance|Resistance]]. The result of these talks was the effective closure of the entire [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]] conglomerate, with its membership and assets being absorbed into either [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] or the [[The Resistance|Resistance's]] operations.

Knowing that he suddenly had to worry about the entire [[Imperial Union]] along with operating on a galactic scale instead of simply in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system, Tomas opened negotiations with Dark Prince [[Jeor Knight]] and Vigo [[Banquo Knox]] of [[Black Sun]] regarding their interest in re-obtaining [[Gree (System)|Gree]]. While negotiations were unforgiving, eventually a deal was struck to exchange Tomas's holdings in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system for [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] control over the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. The 11 billion inhabitants of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] were once again under the control of the crime syndicate, but their return to suffering was not for nothing as the approximate 165 billion civilians in the liberated sectors were suddenly freed from [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] grasp. While Tomas regretted [[Gree (System)|Gree's]] sacrifice, he knew that the liberation of two sectors was an acceptable price to pay. On top of this, galactic analysts quickly estimated [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] lost revenue in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors as approximately 2.916 billion credits per year and expected the financial experts of the former [[Gree Trade Authority]] to quickly capitalize on establishing control of the businesses and income streams. Ultimately, Tomas sacrificed the four planets of [[Gree (System)|Gree]] in exchange for eight worlds - his deal cost only a single system and had taken two sectors away from the [[Imperial Union]], removing one of their strongholds in the galactic southeast. The [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sector bordered space controlled by the [[New Republic]], [[The Krath|Krath]], and [[The eXiles]] - Tomas's removal of [[Black Sun]] from the sector solved a major security issue for the three [[Galactic Alliance]] groups.

After joining the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on the 85th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas spearheaded a reorganization that created several theaters of operation throughout the galaxy, each overseen by a commander who was tasked with developing and organizing their own staff and sector. Tomas was granted the rank of Theater Commander and command of the Deep Core and Morshdine Theaters, along with the third-in-command position of the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and one of their three seats on the [[Galactic Alliance]] Leadership Council. Much of Tomas's work within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] has been withheld from the galactic public, though it is known that he was involved in Operation Unknown Signals, a joint task force between the [[New Republic]], [[The Resistance|Resistance]], and [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]) to respond to several distress calls originating from the [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&sectorID=211 Tynna] [[sector]]. The task force flawlessly coordinated a [[sector]]-wide search in an effort to locate the frigates broadcasting their distress and, discovering them consecutively, rapidly dispatched dozens of hostile pirate groups at each of their locations. In the end, the joint operation was able to locate and rescue three of the four troubled [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates while the fourth was seized by the [[The Exchange|Exchange]]. Tomas was credited with just ten bandit kills, though he publicly attributed this to having only a half squadron of [[RZ-1 A-wing interceptor|A-wings]] and having spent the majority of his time flying reconnaissance before and during the combat engagements. As a reward for their aid, the Tynnani Defense Force awarded three [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Frigate&ID=229 EF65 Meridian-class] frigates to three members of the [[New Republic]] for their individual performance, and two of the three voluntarily transferred their ships to the [[New Republic]]. One frigate was retained by the [[New Republic]] while the second was awarded to the [[The Invid Order|Invid Order]] for their efforts; the third, intended for the [[The Resistance|Resistance]], was greedily kept by [[Lahasa Fy]] despite numerous offers of compensation. Tomas took issue with [[Lahasa Fy|Lahasa's]] actions, who had utilized task force intelligence, [[New Republic]] starfighters, and fought alongside pilots from all three groups, yet felt no apparent need to share in his reward; [[Lahasa Fy|Fy]] left the [[New Republic]] not long after.

Eventually, Tomas grew disillusioned with the state of the [[Galactic Alliance]], even after he was appointed to the position of Deputy Secretary-General. The distrust and lack of cooperation between the alliance's member states was a substantial issue in the fight against the [[Imperial Union]], which he had been a member of during his time in [[Black Sun]]. He began harboring resentment towards several member groups for their lack of contribution and activity within the alliance, and two of them had even spoken out strongly against him in his early appointment to the Leadership Council. Unwilling to put his energy into any sort of reform, and knowing it would likely fail due to certain inflexible leaders who predated his time in the alliance by more than a decade, Tomas ultimately decided that his future lay in another direction and resigned his posts both within the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] and [[Galactic Alliance]] near the end of [[Year 18]]. He had spent just less than a standard year in the positions combined, but felt that he had learned all that he needed to in order to realize that the [[Galactic Alliance|Galactic Alliance's]] fight against [[Imperial]] tyranny was doomed without serious change. After eight months as their third-in-command, Tomas departed the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] on good terms on the 325th day of [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]).

==Focusing on the Clan==
: "''I came to tell you that your people can expect to be busy in the next few months. A war is coming.''"
: "''You must be new in this galaxy. There's always a war going on somewhere, always has been, always will be. It's why Mandalorians have never gone out of business.''"
After his departure from the [[Galactic Alliance]], Tomas felt content that he could focus solely on himself and his [[:Category:Mandalorian Clans|Mandalorian clan]], [[Dael'mor]], including the clan's holdings in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector. Chief among the required work was the removal of an alarming number of empty skyscrapers and barracks in [[Homon (System)|Homon]], abandoned when [[Black Sun]] had pulled out of the system, which Tomas contracted to [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul Khrog's]] [[Kerdos Company]] for two hundred and thirty million credits. After his project was completed, however, [[Dhar`ghul Khrog|Dhar`ghul]] disappeared from the [[galaxy]] under mysterious circumstances and the [[Kerdos Company]] suddenly under new management. No evidence has tied Tomas to the disappearance of the ex-[[Morgukai]], though plenty of rumors circulated in the following months. To further develop both of the sectors, Kez Aak's [[Endless Endeavors]] was contracted in a job estimated to be worth over five hundred million credits. Tomas also bankrolled the [[Amitus Corporation]] and acted as their Chief Financial Officer, but departed their organization after only three weeks due to unpublicized reasons.

</table></center>

On the 37th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas visited his closest ally aboard the '''[[Secutor]]''', [[Dael'mor|Dael'mor's]] [[Imperial Star Destroyer I|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] and flagship, where he was presented with a gift: a lightsaber with a green blade. Having sought to purchase a lightsaber throughout the galaxy for several years, even negotiating to pay up to five hundred million credits at one point in time, he was ecstatic with the gift given to him by [[Cait Catra]]. The lightsaber formerly belonged to Mladen Phantom, a Dark Jedi that [[Cait Catra|Catra]] had defeated several years prior, and kept as a trophy until it was gifted to Tomas. Although he was not afflicted with the [[force]], Tomas was already an avid swordsman and quickly adapted his melee combat skills to accommodate the lightsaber's unique requirements, such as all of the weight being in the hilt. He began training in Form V with a Djem So specialty, focusing on lightsaber dueling despite the obvious disadvantage he'd have against a force user. Djem So also played into the strength of his cybernetic arms, since the form relies on brute force to overpower an opponent's defense. Despite the avid attempts to train with his lightsaber, Tomas' lack of force sensitivity prevented him from achieving anything more than a basic level of dueling skill likely equivalent to that of a Padawan. Later in the year, Tomas struck a deal with his closest allies that net him a new flagship - the clan's [[Imperial Star Destroyer|Imperial I-class Star Destroyer]] - in exchange for his controlling interests in the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta]] sector, minus the ecumenopolis Woldona VII.

It was revealed near the beginning of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]) that Tomas had managed to produce more than eight hundred of [[Black Sun|Black Sun's]] proprietary [[Viper|Viper-class starfighters]] over a ten-month period through their negligence over access to the engineering specifications. The syndicate had failed to remove the blueprints from the shipyards in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system, though an unavoidable backdoor into the shared database system of the shipyards allowed the syndicate to remotely corrupt the engineering data after they realized their mistake. It proved far too late, however, as their error had allowed Tomas to produce more than four billion credits worth of [[Viper|Vipers]], valued on the market at five million credits each at the time of production. The market price for a single [[Viper|Viper-class starfighter]] dropped by fifty percent to two and a half million credits by the midpoint of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), however, after a large secondary supply flooded the market and [[Black Sun]] itself began to sell the fighters, likely in an attempt to both cash in on the demand due to their financial troubles and to create the appearance that the further release of their proprietary technology had barely affected the syndicate.

After the [[War for the Hosnian System]] began on the 195th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas quickly dropped his tasks in the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] system and set course for [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] in his [[RZ-1 A-wing Interceptor|A-wing interceptor]]. Despite the cramped, two-day trip, he arrived on the 198th day and immediately set to claiming land rights for future sale, securing legal ownership of five grids on [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=6243 Hosnian Prime] at the cost of eighteen million and six hundred thousand credits. He quickly sold the land rights to the [[New Republic]] for one hundred and seventy-five million credits, netting him a quick and tidy profit of just over one hundred and fifty-six million credits, immediately ensuring that the trip would be profitable. Afterward, the tremendous number of individuals and organizations flooding into the system in their own attempts to profit seemed to affect Tomas in a strange way. It was almost as if he could sense the growing number of people with hostile intent and it overwhelmed his senses, refusing to allow him any time to think or concentrate. He lost control of himself over the next several days but eventually snapped out of it, only to realize that he had hunted down and slaughtered more than three hundred sentients across three of the system's planets, cutting them down with his lightsaber as they had attempted to build basic infrastructure for their respective employers - the [[Galactic Empire]], [[Mecrosa]], and Veilhal Nomads. Torn with grief and regret over his actions, he departed the [[Hosnian (System)|Hosnian]] system and returned to [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]], immediately seeking out a trusted physician to provide a throughout examination and explanation for his loss of control. Even after a substantial number of tests, the doctor simply concluded that one of his cybernetic implants had likely malfunctioned and triggered a psychotic episode.

Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), it somehow slipped into public knowledge that Tomas owned a hidden space station attached to an asteroid deep within [[the Maw]], an unstable and dangerous cluster of black holes located in the [[Kessel]] sector. Rumors surrounding the asteroid hideout suggest that it serves as a high-security prison for dangerous individuals from throughout the galaxy, sent and paid for by governments unable or unwilling to contain or execute the deadly parties. Paid handsomely for housing the risky prisoners, Tomas had ironically named the station ''Shelter'' and entrusted an unknown business associate with managing the prison for him.

==Establishing Sevetta==
Near the end of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), the remnants of the [[Gree Trade Authority]] banded together to re-emerge as the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]], a collection of companies operating out of the [[Homon (Sector)|Homon]] and [[Sevetta (Sector)|Sevetta]] sectors. Mirroring the former organization of [[Gree Trade Authority|Gree]], Tomas was appointed as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the conglomerate while each company's leaders became vice presidents and department heads in the overarching organization. [[DefenStar Ltd.]] was established as the flagship company for the conglomerate on [[Year 19|19.323]], [[Golan Arms]] opened on [[Year 19|19.343]], [[LodeCorp Mining]] re-opened on [[Year 20|20.002]], and [[Golan Construction]] was acquired and the [[Zaltin Corporation]] incorporated both on [[Year 20|20.160]] ([[CGT]])

When much of [[Helen Hawk|Helen Hawk's]] holdings were publicly auctioned off in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]) following her apprehension by the [[New Republic]], Tomas leveraged the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] substantial financial power to scoop up an [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter]], an [[MC-60 Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80a Star Cruiser]], an [[MC-80b Star Cruiser]], and a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] for an undisclosed number of credits. The [[Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing Starfighter|V-wing]] was sold to [[Sirius Cyan]] for five hundred million credits, while the [[MC-60 Star Cruiser|MC-60]] was traded to Robby Rae for a [[Sabaoth Destroyer]] and a squadron of [[A/SF-01 B-wing Starfighter|B-wings]]; the destroyer was subsequently resold to Jimmy Roggeman for one and a half billion credits while the B-wings were individually sold to [[Drax Whittler]], Lazarus Grimm, [[Diabolus`ut Persolvo]], and [[Lorenzas Atticus]] for a combined two and three quarter billion credits. The [[MC-80a Star Cruiser|MC-80a]] was sold to [[Lilith Delcroix]] for five billion credits while the [[MC-80b Star Cruiser|MC-80b]] was sold to Esu Kyouto for eight billion credits. The final [[Sabaoth Destroyer]], however, was purchased primarily for the almost six billion credits worth of droids stored aboard which Tomas intended to sell at the next [[Jawa Swap Meet]] in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]). Even with reduced sales pricing of droids due to the increase of supply outweighing market demand, Tomas earned the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] four and a half billion credits of pure net profit from the business venture.

==The Mando'ade==
Although the [[Sevetta Conglomerate|Sevetta Conglomerate's]] monthly cash flow and net profits year-to-date were both in the billions of credits, Tomas grew disillusioned with running the conglomerate - just as he had with the [[Gree Trade Authority]] in [[Year 18]] ([[CGT]]). When he was approached by Mand'alor [[Kai Oryk]] about the formation of a new [[Mandalorian]] government near the mid-point of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas realized that his desire to return to the roots of his culture far outweighed the continued business success he had been pursuing for the past decade. He quietly set to disbanding the [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] and bringing [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]], now under the leadership of his nephew [[Victor o`Cuinn]], under the banner of [[Mando'ade]]. [[DefenStar Ltd.]], [[Golan Construction]], and [[LodeCorp Mining]] were closed, while the [[Zaltin Corporation]] became a nationalized faction of [[Mando'ade]]; [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] assumed ownership and operation of [[Golan Arms]]. The [[Sevetta Conglomerate]] effectively shut its doors on [[Year 20|20.206]] ([[CGT]]) and [[Dael'mor|Clan Dael'mor]] joined up [[Mando'ade]], with Tomas being granted the rank of Ko'verd and a position on the leadership council.

Tomas withdrew from the public eye and focused on his work within both [[Mando'ade]] and [[Dael'mor]]. Following the defection of [[CorSec]] to The Cooperative in [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas purchased critical infrastructure on the world of [https://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Galaxy_Map&planetID=2843 Columus] from Jeff Kronn for a small fortune. In the confusion and aftermath of [[CorSec|CorSec's]] officers betraying their [[Galactic Empire]] masters, Tomas as able to secure the local population's loyalty and immediately sought to sell his holdings and influence for a profit. Soon after, Urkh Malal purchased Tomas' investment, earning the latter a reported two and a half billion credit profit in less than two months.

When the [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]] system was discovered near the end of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas established an allied coalition consisting of three different groups, which set course to the [[Western Reaches]] sector in an attempt to stake their claim. While they arrived barely in time to secure the smallest of land parcels in [[Jakku (System)|Jakku]], itself, they initiated a scouting mission within the sector due to rumors of another untouched system in the area. When they discovered the [[Takodana (System)|Takodana]] system on the 313th day of [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), they quickly realize that the [[Trade Federation]] had beaten them there by approximately five days. Despite the head start and their colonization efforts underway, the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] had not yet solidified their grip over the planet and the coalition quickly moved to secure their own land rights on the planet. With the desire to prevent any bloodshed or hostilities with the [[Trade Federation]], Tomas opened negotiations with Duceroy Salamku Derov over the sale of their holdings and the cease of coalition operations on the world. A deal was struck and the coalition walked away with five hundred million credits for their troubles, having handed the [[Trade Federation|Federation]] their land and intel.

==Blue Star Dominion==
At the beginning of [[Year 21]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas decided that it was time for his people to set off on their own again. [[LodeCorp Mining]] was once again established on Day 12 to serve as a front organization for the group's activities, though it would come to grow into something much larger. After the fall of the [[New Republic]], [[LodeCorp Mining|LodeCorp]] established a mutual defense pact with the [[Rebel Alliance]] and re-confirmed its commitment against the [[Imperial Union]], later becoming a founding member of the [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] on Day 127 alongside the [[The Hyporian Commonwealth (Year 20 - Year 21)|Hyporian Commonwealth]], [[Mando'ade]], the [[Rebel Alliance]], and Stryker Military Services. The [[The Unity Protocol|Unity Protocol]] was a regional defense treaty signed during the War for the Republic to defend the Galactic Southeast from an anticipated [[Imperial Union]] offensive. Despite the concern, [[Imperial Union]] activity was limited to the sectors of the former [[New Republic]] and territory sympathetic to the [[The Resistance|Resistance]] in the northern portions of the [[Outer Rim]].

On the 210th day, the [[Order of the One Sith]] became fractured upon the betrayal of [[Morgan Sathel]] and [[Kaze Zill]], who then turned on each other. [[Kaze Zill|Kaze]] was able to seize control of the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] world of [[Venaari]], which Tomas foresaw an opportunity with and purchased for three billion credits. A depot station orbiting the world was purchased from [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for a hundred and fifty million credits, while operatives were dispatched to bypass and disable the [[Order of the One Sith|Sith]] leader [[Darin Byrch|Darin Byrch's]] planetary shield network. While the operatives were en route, however, [[Darin Byrch|Darin]] agreed to exchange the shield network for one and a half billion credits - granting Tomas complete control. He was able to negotiate the resale of [[Venaari]] back to [[Morgan Sathel|Morgan]] for eight billion credits, netting Tomas more than three billion credits in profit.

The desire to expand led to the establishment of the [[Blue Star Dominion]] as a sovereign government of the [[Sevetta]] sector and [[Dagu (System)|Dagu]] system on the 21st day of [[Year 22]] ([[CGT]]). On Day 80, Dominion Command was established to oversee operations and consisted of Cedron Tryonel, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn|Taranjeek o`Cuinn]], and Tomas o`Cuinn.

The [[Blue Star Dominion]] participated in the [[Tolonda Conflict]] led by the [[Jedi Order]] and took part in both the [[Jedi Order|Jedi's]] Operation ROID RAGE and its own Operation Appropriation. Operation Appropriation was the codename for a covert military action conducted by the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion's]] naval and marine forces to seize and destroy numerous ships owned by the [[Sith Imperium]]. With the majority of the Imperium's forces scrambling in response to their late discovery of the [[Jedi Order|Jedi Order's]] Operation ROID RAGE, Dominion Marshal Tomas o`Cuinn quietly outlined a plan with Sith Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau]], an independent operative sympathetic to the rebel cause, to launch a clandestine assault behind enemy lines. Calculating that they had a limited window of opportunity to strike, the Dominion borrowed two local [[Modular Taskforce Cruiser|Modular Taskforce Cruisers]] from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] to bring their total in the [[Tolonda]] sector to three. Two of the cruisers were dispatched to the [[Tamra (System)|Tamra]] system under the commands of Tomas and Taranjeek o`Cuinn while the third was committed to the [[Oshora (System)|Oshora]] system under the command of [[Kaze Zill]]. Each of the warships was manned by several companies of Dominion marines and escorted to the outskirts of their respective target systems by the Dominion Navy, which broke off outside of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] sensor range in an effort to maintain the cruiser's stealth. Transmitting false IFF codes, each cruiser casually made its approach into the respective system and successfully evaded notice by the Sith. In the early hours of the morning on Day 60, Fleet Commander [[Sekou Tau|Tau]] transferred the access codes of the entire [[Sith Imperium]] fleet to Dominion Command, signaling execution of the plan. With much of the Imperium's personnel occupied elsewhere, the vessels in the target areas were either manned by only skeleton crews or unmanned entirely. Dominion marines rapidly executed boarding maneuvers on hundreds of ships in the three locations, quietly subduing the confused and quickly overwhelmed crews before they could raise any alarm and captured the bridges. Tractor beams from the cruisers swiftly moved the occupied vessels into their docking bays while others were flown and docked manually. The Dominion successfully seized over three hundred of the Sith Imperium's ships before the transfer of access codes was noticed and a remote reset command was sent to the fleet, prompting a hasty exit from the system for the cruisers amid the confusion and leaving behind a chaotic embarrassment for the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] to wake up to. At least two [[BFF-1 Bulk Freighter|BFF-1 bulk freighters]] were destroyed during the operation, reportedly at the hands of their own crew. An unconfirmed report from across the galaxy in the Ottega system alleged that, at the same time as the Dominion operation, an [[Sith Imperium|Imperium]] [[Mammoth-class Heavy Hauler|Mammoth-class heavy hauler]] was mysteriously destroyed by what local authorities described as a remote slicing attack that exploited its fuel line. Analysts throughout the galaxy have since estimated that the Imperium lost a quarter of their entire naval fleet. Many of the [[Sith Imperium|Imperium's]] lost vessels were later used as target practice and subsequently destroyed by a Rebel task force deployed to the Petabys Conflict Zone during an unrelated operation.

After the [[Galactic Empire|Galactic Empire's]] triumph over the [[New Republic]] in [[Year 21]], months of subsequent conflict and territorial changes left thousands of outposts abandoned throughout the [[Outer Rim]]. One of these vacated bases, known as Stardew Station, was marked as an unimportant observatory at the edge of the galaxy in low-level [[New Republic]] files, yet no coordinates were included. As the combat being waged between the [[Imperial Union]] and Rebels dragged on, forces from both sides haphazardly uncovered fragments of intelligence that were carelessly secured and sloppily transmitted. The Information Operations Network (ION), a Rebel-developed intelligence tool, frequently intercepted slivers of the relayed data in an attempt to piece together the information as if it were a puzzle. It was through ION that Stardew Station was first flagged as a location of interest in [[Year 22]] due to the unusual personnel assignments prior to the outpost's desertion; the research scientists attached to the station specialized in interstellar navigation, advanced weapons development, metallurgy engineering, and progressive propulsion technologies. After the location of interested was flagged, it became easier for ION to rapidly process future incoming data relevant to that location and, after a few weeks longer, coordinates for Stardew were ascertained - the [[Pelgrin]] sector. A report was automatically generated for review by an analyst, who examined the data and determined that Stardew was worth exploring. A joint task force was formed between two nearby Rebel groups, the [[Blue Star Dominion]] and Stryker Military Services, and dispatched to investigate Stardew Station. Warden [[Kaze Zill]] was deployed to lead a detachment of Dominion Ghosts as the task force's ground unit, while Stryker's Mika Noris commanded a squadron of elite pilots to provide both naval superiority and transportation. Upon arrival at Stardew's coordinates, the task force fell under immediate attack by a coalition of pirate organizations intent on plundering the station's secrets. While his squadron engaged the pirate vessels, Noris skillfully hacked into the station's control systems, disabling the automated defenses and securing the Ghosts an opening to insert into Stardew. The Ghosts advanced through the station, combating the pirate crew who proved limited challenge for the force users and their disciplined troops. Unsupported by the station's defenses that Noris previously disabled, the pirate armada realized heavy casualties to the superior Stryker pilots. Losing contact with their forces inside as the Dominion secured the station, the pirate remnants disengaged and withdrew from Stardew. Stardew Station played host to a classified research and development program for the [[New Republic]]. The scientist's mission was to develop an advanced attack corvette capable of serving as a fleet escort picket ship and long-range patrol craft, along with countering the [[Galactic Empire|Empire's]] formidable DP-20c gunship. While most of the technological research had been completed and verified, the design team had not yet engineered the actual vessel. As the remnants of the [[New Republic]] were still reforming into the [[Rebel Alliance]] elsewhere in the galaxy, it was determined that completing the development of this ship was best suited to the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] and Stryker. Assisted by ION, research teams led by the Dominion's Marshal Cedron Tryonel and Stryker's Jaria Feri partnered to develop the [[MC-30b Corvette]]. Working prototypes were assembled soon after completion of the design and the vessel was quickly put into service.

Upon investigating distress calls on Day 331 of [[Year 22]], the [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] discovered the lost system of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] in their capital sector of [[Sevetta]]. Rapidly perceiving that the sole planet was home to heavily-entrenched criminal cartels, Dominion Command called upon their allies for assistance in emancipating the oppressed population of [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] spearheaded Operation Kowak, publicly known as the [[Battle for Kowak]], and led a large Rebel coalition to successfully liberate [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] from the criminal warlords and protect the system from potential opportunists. The coalition consisted of [[The Antarian Rangers]], [[-ARK-]], [[DOM Arsenal]], [[The Exchange]], [[Grand Duchy of Froz]], [[The Invid Order]], [[Jedi Order]], [[Mando'ade]], [[Rebel_Alliance_(Year_21)|Rebel Alliance]], [[The Resistance]], [[Rogue Squadron]], [[Stryker Military Services]], [[Ternion Corps]], and [[TIEFE]]. The [[Blue Star Dominion|Dominion]] issued a public travel advisory on Day 332<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46276 Kowak System Travel Restriction (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 332)]</ref>, claiming control of the system and promising military action against potential invaders. Throughout the operation, the Rebel coalition continuously shipped in infantry battalions, thousands of starfighters, dozens of corvettes, and powerful capital warships such [[Star Destroyer|Star Destroyers]] and Mon Calamari Star Cruisers. [[Kowak (System)|Kowak]] was fully secured on Day 337<ref>[https://www.swcombine.com/community/news/display.php?postID=46293 Dominion Liberates the Kowak System (Hacked by Tomas O`Cuinn on Year 22 Day 339)]</ref>, leading to the scaling down of the coalition's operations during the following weeks.

=Supplemental Information=
===Description===
: "''I'm just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe.''"
Tomas is a [[Hapan]] [[Category:Males|male]] of standard build standing 1.8 meters in height, rather unimposing and disarming in appearance. Despite being born in Year 55 ([[BCGT]]) and being more than seventy years old, his physical body is approximately three decades younger due to the years spent in suspended animation. Prior to skin replacement, his torso had worn a half-lifetime of scars from years spent training and fighting. Very rarely will he shed the protection of his custom-forged set of [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=69 heavy battle armour] and [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Armour&ID=70 helmet]. A [[DLT-20a]] blaster rifle hangs on his back, held by a sling around his torso, while a pair of lightsabers hang off of his belt which also conceals the blade of a sheathed knife. To supplement the blaster's mid-range capabilities, Cuinn carries a pair of modified [[ELG-3A]] blasters for closer engagements, one strapped to his left thigh and the other on the rear of his belt.

===Cybernetics===
: "''He is a Borg who died last night. You know the term, I'm sure. Half human…half mechanical droid. Yet the man half of him had a soul, or so my faith believes.''"
Due to his extensive cybernetic implants, he could easily be classified as more cyborg than anything else. Unusually, the majority of these cybernetics are not enhancements but replacements for the physical damage received from events in Cuinn's past. The dermis and epidermis of his chest have been permanently supplanted with synthskin due to extensive second-degree burns and blunt impact trauma. A Lornan implant, the exact model number unknown, resides on his brain stem to regulate the electrical currents in his body while basic ear augmentations have been installed to generate a standard level of hearing. A pair of automated lungs draws oxygen in place of the discarded originals. Military-grade optical implants with customized, commercial-grade software replaced his damaged-beyond-repair eyes, though their only benefit over standard vision is a slight increase in night vision. Most of Cuinn's joints have been augmented with durasteel pins for added durability, albeit at the cost of their overall ranges of motion. The only cybernetic that could fairly be classified as an enhancement would be his custom-engineered arms. The engineering standards and design specifications are not known outside of a small, trusted circle, though public reports suggest that his arm strength and muscular endurance is much greater than it naturally should be.

===Trading Career===
: "''The successful man will profit from his mistakes and try again in a different way.''"
Tomas o`Cuinn is one of the most well-known and successful traders in the galaxy. His trading career began with [http://market.centrepointstation.com/details.php?lid=208519 the sale] of a [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Light_Freighters&ID=167 Nu-Class Attack Shuttle], which was gifted to him, to Leah Asalah on the 331st day of [[Year 13]] ([[CGT]]). He immediately adopted a profit-based business model and used the liquid capital from his initial sale to jump-start a starship trafficking business, purchasing derelict vessels for a fraction of their value and restoring them for profitable resale. Since then, his resale business has reportedly earned him billions of credits in net profit, though the early numbers are presumably inflated due to the widely-fluctuating market value of starships and his assignment from [[Black Sun]] to sell off [[The_Guild_Bank|The Guild Bank's]] assets in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). According to public rumor, his largest and most profitable transaction was his sale of controlling stake in the [[Gree (System)|Gree]] system to [[Black Sun]] in exchange for their ownership of the [[Woldona (System)|Woldona]] and [[Homon (System)|Homon]] star systems, though no public records of trade have been discovered for this transaction. On the 217th day of [[Year 19]] ([[CGT]]), Tomas leveraged his status as a reputable businessman in order to steal twenty billion credits from the [[Aurodium Legion]], likely the largest trade theft on known galactic record.

===Armor & Armament===
: "''My armor insures my victory in hand-to-hand combat.''"
Though heavily outfitted, Cuinn believes in the value of allies and, as such, has cultivated a highly cohesive unit of veteran [[Abyssin]] soldiers, twelve-strong, that work closely with him on various missions. His personal [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Military&ID=7 Droideka], nicknamed Ver'gebuir, is his constant companion and bodyguard regardless of location. Due to his age, Tomas' physical dexterity and speed have declined and, as a result, has come to rely on his allies, heavy armour, and cunning to make up the difference.

===A Matter of Race (Metamorphosis Plague)===
: "''Well let's have a look at you. Hmm. Biped. More or less symmetrical. Far less hair than the last one. Opposable digits. Mostly water hey?''"
It is unknown whether Cuinn was personally affected when the [[Metamorphosis Plague]] raged across the galaxy in [[Year 14]] ([[CGT]]). However, numerous reports from routine security scans have since surfaced with varying results in regards to his DNA. These conflicting scans, all between [[Year 14]] and [[Year 20]] ([[CGT]]), have classified him as [[Amani]], [[Anx]], [[Anzati]], Chagrian, Codru-Ji, [[Diathim]], [[Gotal]], [[Kaleesh]], Kushiban, [[Mirialan]], Vurk, and [[Whiphid]]. While his physical appearance is obviously that of a [[Human]] male, Tomas has said simply that he was injected with an experimental DNA scrambler while working as an operative for [[Black Sun|Black Watch]], the purpose of which was to mask his identity from enemy detection and prevent collection and/or manipulation of his DNA. While this claim isn't likely to be proven anytime soon, there are a number of rumors in circulation about Cuinn's actual race, the most interesting of which suggests that he is actually [[Clawdite]]. He has dismissed these rumors as silliness, publicly maintaining that he is simply a true-born [[Human]] of [[Hapan]] ancestry. At any point, some passive scan data has suggested that Tomas is actually more cybernetic than flesh, prompting further theories that he no longer fits into the confines of any one race - unless that race is cyborg.

== Overview ==
The Sabaoth Defender was designed and built to escort the Sabaoth Destroyers built several years earlier. Expensive, even by modern fighter costs, the Defenders were crucial to space superiority, due to their shielding and armor, which still match any modern-day fighter. Defenders can work alone or be based on a ship during tactical operations. Historically, under optimal situations 2 squadrons of Defenders would be placed on a Sabaoth Destroyer, leaving plenty of room for support craft.
