Of all the arts, there is none as skillful or as elegant as larceny. In this universe of bounty hunters, assassins, and killers, the subtle art of deception and of the heist seems to be lost.
Afterall, anyone can kill someone - firepower isn't something that takes a great deal of finesse and skill - and even dueling is a matter of directness. Not everyone can fool their enemies though, not everyone can outwit or outsmart another...the thrill of the heist, the job, can almost be more rewarding than the outcome itself. Almost.
So here's the goal, I want to put together a crew of thieves, known only by their aliases to the public. Together...we pull off daring heists, incredible adventures, and of course - a ton of cash.
IC, the story will be that the small time thief "The nightingale" wants to carry on his fathers legacy (his father being known as a notorious gem thief). He thus takes his father tools, and his fathers ship, and gathers together a crew of thieves that will ascend the ranks of history. Or fail miserably and retire into theater afterwards.
NOTE: If you'd like to join, please keep in mind that this is for thieves. Not assassins, bounty hunters, Jedi, Sith...but thieves. Also, for the sake of expediency, there will only be a few slots open.

Actually we'll be here to muscle you out or absorb your crew into our organization. Either way, you'll be working for us or not at all. We do have a rep to uphold. xD Right Cheq?

Ooo. I would love to give writing pure thievery a try sometime in the future. Well, the character I'm using IS one that I'll be introducing to the crew on Bespin eventually. It's not that farfetched that you'd know me, or my actual identity. If you need a Fence, contact Juvex Import Export on Juvex, the Mid Rim. Absolutely, I'll keep that in mind when we get ourselves some merchandise. If you are looking for some help from the higher ups in the crime world, the Exchange is a whistle away. We have certain targets we would like to be robbed etc... Help, no. Jobs? Sure why not. If you can offer yourself as a fence, that would be amazing as well. Quite frankly, I don't intend to work for anyone; the name of the game is theft, and that should be hard...working with others tends to make things a might too easy for my taste. Doesn't mean I wont call the Exchange a potential side partner though - insofar as jobs and fencing is concerned.

Looks like, we are going to have a good ole fashion turf war. You, see not working for the Exchange is like working against it, thus being a target. Now, I am sure my agents will help you "reconsider" maybe joining the Exchange. That is when you refuse IC Also, I just want to see some crime conflict.

Not working for the Juvex Import Export is like working in the spice mines of kessel without pay, health benefits, hazard bonus, holidays, breaks, sleep or internet.
Becoming an inventory item for Juvex Import Export is a lot the same way.
So there is not much else to it... become an employee, or an inventory item.
or... you know... freelance agent works too...

I'm thinking probably not. See, thieves should abide by not killing to get their loot. Killing for something is an assassin, not a thief. I suppose there is some leeway on individual jobs and such, but on a mass scale such as slavery? Very, very unlikely. Looks like, we are going to have a good ole fashion turf war. You, see not working for the Exchange is like working against it, thus being a target. Now, I am sure my agents will help you "reconsider" maybe joining the Exchange. That is when you refuse IC Also, I just want to see some crime conflict. Sounds warm and cuddly. Looking forward to it.
