Crymorah Syndicate

The Crymorah Syndicate, first introduced in the canon novel "Tarkin" by James Luceno, is a major criminal organization in the "Star Wars" universe, which upholds its influence across the galaxy. Multifarious in its illegal activities, the syndicate is primarily involved in various types of smuggling, including spice and weapons, along with blackmailing and racketeering. Known for its extensive network of spies and informants, the Crymorah Syndicate's operation is discrete yet hugely influential.

Throughout the series, the syndicate mostly operates in the shadows, but its presence is frequently alluded to. Its influence stretches across several locations, including Coruscant, the galactic capital and home to the underworld; Lothal, a prime industrial and manufacturing base; and Kessel, famous for its spice mines. Notably, the Crymorah Syndicate has forged alliances with other powerful criminal factions from time to time, like the Black Sun, to counter mutual threats or further their illicit interests. The syndicate's reputation for secrecy and cunning maneuvers indeed makes it a formidable power in the criminal underworld of the "Star Wars" universe.
