Darksaber Squadron

History

[Secrecy and deception run deep within my culture- they say if you’re not betraying someone, it’s already too late.] - Excerpt from the journals of Emperor Tusa Ujalli Hai

For centuries, the Hutt Empire has been little more than a loose conglomerate of associates- business partners who specialized in competition. Using their personal empires, the Hutt species has expanded beyond their wildest dreams, civilizing and conquering half of the known galaxy. Entire regions of space fell under Hutt control, and the species flourished, eventually countering the Republic expansionist movement.

After a series of brief, violent clashes, the Great Hutt Wars had begun. Putting up an immediate yet pathetic defense, the Hutts suffered a series of crucial defeats that further divided the faction. After a foolish treaty with the newly emerging Dark Jedi of the Bogan, the then-Chairman Malgarr was overthrown to pave the way for a new leader- Tusa Ujalli Hai. It was this Hutt that issued a series of radical policy changes, which led to the creation of Darksaber Squadron.

First and foremost, a total integration of the Hutt Military was issued. All resources were pooled, mixed, and reissued, all funds appropriated as the Chairman decided. In the trillions of credits that flowed through Tusa’s fingertips, it was easy to lose a million here and there for his secret pet project- the key to his continued survival in the Hutt Empire. That project was kept an utter secret- those who delved too deep into research about the DARKSABER Project were prone to disappear from their beds.

Near completion, Tusa Ujalli Hai came to the conclusion that Darksaber should use every resource available. As a reflection of that theory and using the benefit of the Dark Treaty as signed into effect by his predecessor Malgarr, Darksaber began to integrate Bogan Force Sensitives into their ranks, giving an entirely new dynamic to the already deadly squadron. The sheer presence of the Dark Side of the Force had a colossal impact on training, multiplying the squadron's estimated effectiveness.

Soon, the Darksaber Project was completed. With two small vessels, less than a thousand personnel, and the best equipment money could by, Tusa Ujalli Hai had created a private army. Above enforcers, above assassins- these men would follow his every whim and command, eliminate his enemies, and solidify his power base for years to come.

These men and women are the best of the best: the elite warriors of the Hutt Empire. Using accelerated training, endless funding, and ruthless leadership coupled with the mystical power of the Force, these beings act as a secret, non-existent platoon to execute Tusa Ujalli Hai’s will and specialize in rapid deployment anywhere across the galaxy.


Darksaber Ranking

As Darksaber is technically an extension of the formal Hutt Military, they follow the same rankings. However, due to it's size Darksaber only allows Enlisted ranks- Command ranks result in a transfer to the Hutt Armed Forces. These ranks are as follows:

Hutt Enlisted Ranks:
Level 3
Captain/Major- Commands one or more squads of soldiers.

Level 4
Commander/Captain- An experienced soldier who supports the Captain/Major in commanding a squadron.

Level 5
Lieutenant/Sergeant- A mid-level career soldier with exceptional skills and a long service record.

Level 6
Ensign/Corporal- A low-level or drafted soldier with a moderate service record.

Level 7
Crewmen/Private- A new or drafted soldier with minimal skills and a small or nonexistent service record.
