Dorne Teague

"I know your every secret. Your every desire, every word you have spoken, every ally and enemy you have, while you fumble in the dark."

- Teague as the Shadow Broker

Lord Dorne Teague, known to the galaxy infamously as his alter ago, the "Shadow Broker" was a human male crime lord, information broker, and former SIS operative who led the crime syndicate known as the Shadow League during the Cold War and Galactic War.

Born and raised on the agriworld Chandrila in the Core Worlds, Dorne Teague was born the son of Lord Gelros Teague, the head of the political Teague dynasty and senator of Chandrila. On his home planet, Teague met and fell in love with a girl named Eyna, who also happened to live on his farm. During the Republic's war with the resurgent Sith Empire, Chandrila was invaded by the Sith, who took some of the planet's farmers as slaves, among them Teague's childhood sweetheart.

In an effort to find her, Teague tried enlisting in the Republic Strategic Information Service, but was denied because of his young age. A sympathetic operative, however, took the young Teague as his clandestine informant. His task was to collect as much covert information as possible.

Teague became disillusioned with the SIS' dealings when he discovered that they were planning on using Teague's collected info to attack peaceful communities who happened to be situated in the Sith Empire. Believing that the SIS only cared about furthering their war with the Empire instead of focusing to protect the Republic's civilians, Teague left and went his own way.

He eventually discovered that Eyna was sold by the Empire to the Slaver's Republic in the Slave systems. Realizing the danger the Slaver's Republic pose, Teague constructed a plan to infiltrate them. He formed a team of top operatives, informants, and spies with the intention of uncovering every secret in the galaxy, from the lowest slaves to the most powerful politicians. He called his team the Shadow League, with him heading them as the Shadow Broker.

After becoming the Shadow Broker, Teague managed to discover the location of his lover. Meanwhile, what originated as his little cadre of operatives soon grew into a massive crime syndicate, located in every corner of the galaxy. The Shadow Broker used his power to sell the secrets of enemies to one another, while using the influence he gained in an effort to rescue the love of his life. He also build a headquarters hidden on the gas giant planet Tarilla.

Unfortunately, Teague did not manage to find his lover, as she was constantly being moved from place to place. Ironically, while the Shadow Broker knew every secret of every person in every faction, one question remained that he could never answer during his lifetime; where was Eyna?
