I was reading over some stuff relating to The Old Republic and got an idea, to create to see if anyone would be interested in creating a faction called the Star Cabal.
It is a diverse group of individuals from all over the galaxy that believes that the Jedi and Sith are the main cause of all wars, and by extent, many of the galaxy's other problems, and work towards the common goal of eradicating both the dark and light side orders. They mainly work from behind the scenes and try to get the two main factions, Jedi and Sith, to annihilate one another and create a galaxy run by the "ordinary people." It recruited people as young as eleven and trained them from youth to be their agents. For direct assaults, the Cabal often hired mercenaries. The organization was very secretive and the recruitment process was intense, to get rid of any possible enemy infiltrators. Many of its operations included such activities as spy/counter-spy work, torture, manipulating individuals and organizations, sabotage, hacking and orchestrating massacres for influencing media, and sometimes, direct attacks on different targets using mercenaries (the "cloak and dagger" type stuff).
The Cabal's form of organization was not entirely established in The Old Republic, but based on what was revealed, I though of a fairly basic hierarchy that could be used: there would be group of agents and informants known as "enforcers", who would carry out the bidding of the inner circle, which consisted of beings of notable positions in other governments/factions. The enforcers were led by a tier of more senior agents, those who would be in direct contact with the inner circle and would act as field commanders and case officers.
Faction background:
In The Old Republic, the Cabal was ultimately destroyed in a joint operation by Imperial Intelligence and Republic Strategic Information Service. For the back story of the faction, it could be that a descendent of one of its former leaders had actually resurrected the faction in recent times due to the increased activity of Jedi and Sith, and it was now actively taking measures against both the Imperium and the New Jedi Order/Rebellion. The Star Cabal was recreated around 1,002 ABY, when the Sith first became publicly known. It's leader knew that another Sith-Jedi war was inevitable, and began making preparations for this. Its ultimate goal would be to get the Empire and the Rebellion/Jedi to completely destroy each other, and then rise to power in the vacuum that would follow. The Star Cabal would also secretly back such groups as the Coterie to help spread more chaos and confusion among the Empire's rank, and could turn to the Hutt Cartel to hire some of its hitmen as mercenaries.
Would anyone be interested in this faction?
