A grand army of the Hutt cartel

[Zenva Vrotoa]

Insolent cretin! The Zabrak matron fumed silently. The blade in her hand trembled briefly as she fought the urge to throw the weapon at the back of the Gen'dai's neck. Her temper was kept in check a while longer, despite the brute's foolish words. With a flourish, she spun the dagger through her fingers catching the weapon so the blade rested flat against the back of her forearm. She inclined her head toward [member="Sempra the Hutt"], a gesture of respect. "I do not speak out of loyalty to the People of the Trees, my lord Sempra. To convince one Wookie, or even a handful of them, to fight for you is impressive by any account. I speak out of concern for the Cartel. To think you can trick an entire tribe is dangerous. He seeks to fool multiple tribes, something that most would call insane. Should he fail, the Wookies will turn against him and anyone else they believe has wronged them."

Zenva turned her attention to the Gen'dai, "Do not think to place any responsibility upon me, Gen'dai. If you pursue this endeavor and fail, it is your failure and yours alone. I will not partake in a fool's errand."

The Zabrak matron returned her focus to the massive Hutt, "I have said all I wish to say on the matter, my lord Sempra. I pray you remember my offer. With the right money, as army can be built from Iridonia and her Zabrak clans."

Zenva dipped a curtsy before her employer, her left hand taking up the tails of her gown. Slowly she backed away, intent to resume her leisurely position on her silk divan.

Jaster was waiting patently at the entrance of the main tent. He had only recently arrived from his duties of the Trade Conglomerate. Creating a massive Police Force and Trade Fleet was no laughing matter, but Jaster was getting close to finishing up. Though when he received an invitation from his old partner [member="Sempra the Hutt"], well who in their right mind would say no to such a kind man. Of course Jaster was joking, Sempra was nothing more then his access to Kessel and slaves. Jaster had labs, trade lines, and Transceiver codes for his smugglers, so it was all business.

Though he did walk into a interesting debate between two seemingly avid worriers about hiring worrier. One wish to to employ wookiees to fight for Sempras military, the other wished to counter the offer to instead trust her to raise an army with the use of Sempras money. Both were interesting, and Jaster personally could see them both working.

Though the wookiees home world was in republic space, they didn't have a Republic Representatives for their planet, a representative was picked for them. If one were to offer freedom from this repressive position and help establish a new leader, all the tribes cheiftains would offer alliances. Though it was never easy to negosiated with wookiees, Jaster never visited the planet, though he had two wookiees who were gladiators.

The others idea was just sale swords, mercinaries if it requires hard credits, but Jaster heard stories of the Zabrak worrier. He had even been on the opposite side of the blaster of a few of their worriers, they were no joke. Investing in them would be a fine gamble in Jasters mind.

He was a shadow operator, and as one, he stayed out of the confrontation of this and waited for Sempra to decide.

 

[Sempra the Hutt]

Sempras eyes wandered between the two.

"It seems to me the both of you have ideas on how to expand our forces. " he grabbed his cup and drank some of the extremely expensive importee wine.

"I will give my blessing to the both of you, as long as you can guarantee its loyalty I am interested in seeing new blood enter our service. If you are succesful in presenting such a force, I will naturally appreciate your efforts."

Sempra knew that what most of these mercenary warlords would muster never ended up in the cartels own army. But if either would prove otherwise he was open to it.

[Jaster Awaud]

It would seem that [member="Zenva Vrotoa"] and [member="Alkah'Kahtel"] buisness with [member="Sempra the Hutt"] was finished. So Jaster took the opertunity to meet with the man himself. He only made his presents known by stepping out of the entrance and approaching behind the two. Jaster stood at the edge of the stage where Sempra addressed the two arguing, he knew better then to trust the Hutt with posistining anywhere to stand.

Jaster bowed his head and body at a 45 degree angle to show his respect, "Your honorable grace, lord Sempra, it is a pleasure to see you in fine health after all these months, your military seems formidable and roaring for battle, they would put many Mandalorians to shame in their thirst for blood."

Jaster recovered from his bow, seems that the Lady Zenva was still as feisty as when he first meet her. She seemed in a fowl mood so Jaster didn't press her with his jesting. He knew it would only end with a laser through his chest, as she seemed the type to carry a blaster everywhere. As for the other brute, he seemed new from his last visit as he made it his mission to know everyone in the cartel, whether it be on good terms or bad.

 

[Sempra the Hutt]

The armies were slowly seperated as the droid formed large columns. They appeared to leave large paths in between battallions in preperations for the next display.

Watchimg [member="Zenva Vrotoa"] walk away he could not help but wonder if she would try to present this zabrakian force to him. He knew the ZXabrak were fierce and he would approve. time will tell he decided.
[member="Alkah'Kahtel"] was there, a most welcome new addition to the cartel. He too held much promise and wether or not he would bring Wookies to do his bidding or something else Sempra knew better then to disregard a creature such as him.

Notcing [member="Jaster of Clan Awaud"] step forward Sempra nodded to him.

"It is good to see you here Mr Jaster. And thank you for the compliment. I would assume the mandalorians would disagree though." he chuckled.

"How can I help you on this day then Mr Jaster?" he asked. That man was all bussiness, Sempra did not mind but he would not ask for Sempras attention unless he had something in mind.

Jaster was slightly hurt, he didn't always visit to ask for something, though the last few visits didn't help that prospective. He was gone for so long, couldn't he just drop by to speak with his largest client. The Cartle was something Jaster couldn't loose, he had no buisness in this side of the galaxy, he needed the foothold.

"Now, can't I just drop by to visit your lovely establishment," Jaster moved slightly just to motion for a drink, "I've just come from my own military parade, though your forces are much larger then what I hold, and as a Mandaloran, I don't really care what they think your honorable grace."

Jaster looked at the crowd he was in the presence of, he was use to more disapline from his Conglomerate Police. These truely were the scum of the underworld, but Jaster was here as a guest and didn't wish to offend his generous host.

 

[Sempra the Hutt]

Sempra turned to the crowd.

"Now let me present a little surprise to you all. Behold as I present our newest purchace!"

With applause Sempra nodded toward the nearby slave assistant who arranged for the next part in the spectacle.

Within minutes the air was filled with the roars of heavy repulsor engines. A line of Skotcha tanks and anti aircraft tanks pushed its way through the broad passage created by flanking battle droids.
An impressive sight on its own the parade of heavy vehicles approached the stand and came to a halt. The machines turned 180 degrees and fired a bombastic salute. Flags was waved in the air as a battallion of droids simultaneously fired a wave of blastershots into the air. As the firework was displayed slaved made sure to spread out and refil any emtpy cups or mugs.

Then Sempra turned back to [member="Jaster of Clan Awaud"].

"You are most welcome to just visit Mr Jaster. A most appreciated gesture." he replied and gave him a polite nod as he raised his own glass in a symbolic toast to their partnership.

[Cadan Tazi]

As the tanks arrived Cadan couldn't help but cheering. By now he had, had a few more drinks and was on the more intoxicated side. "Way to go Sempra!" The tipsy Duros shouted out towards Sempra.

"Now where are me Twi'leks." Cadan said to himself as he looked around the table expecting some to appear.

[Thraxis]

Thraixs was amongst the crowds, wandering about, cheering as he saw the amazing spectacle, he didn't plan on getting drunk for this event, he wanted to see the guns being blasted, their melodious roar as they spat out shells of destruction.

"This is going to be a truly grand spectacle. If only we had some live targets..." he mumbled to himself, though didn't really care if anyone heard his mutterings.
