Vergak

"A life in servitude is not a life worth living."

- Vergak Vergak was a Zabrak male criminal, information broker, and smuggler. Born on the Zabrak homeworld of Iridonia, Vergak's early life was marred with petty crime and juvenile delinquency; having grown up an orphan on the streets. At the age of fifteen, Vergak was sent to an orphanage in Coruscant where he came to meet his future partner-in-crime Dorne Teague, who later in life became the first Shadow Broker.

Vergak and Teague joined the Republic Strategic Information Service at the behest of Myros Bekkal. Together they gained a reputation for being one of the most effective operatives. However, Bekkal's betrayal during the Coruscanti Gang War saw Vergak and Teague's life steer towards crime. With Teague, Vergak established the Shadow League which would eventually become the galaxy's most feared and powerful crime syndicate at its height.

Throughout Teague's ruthless rise to power, Vergak saw how power corrupted his old friend, which forced him to betray his former partner to the SIS. Vergak went under witness protection after Teague's death and the fragmentation of the Shadow League, and remained in protection of the Galactic Republic on Coruscant up until his assassination, ordered by the second Shadow Broker and Teague's direct successor; the slicer Mako.
