Myros Bekkal

"Good and evil are arbitrary, boy. There is only power. Power, and those too weak to take it."

- Myros Bekkal to Dorne Teague Rybek Moksal, better known by his anagram Myros Bekkal was a Human male criminal, con artist and double agent who worked for both the Galactic Republic and Sith Empire, but held true allegiance to neither. He was an experienced and renowned scam artist who swindled millions worth of credits from several organizations and was listed as being one of the most dangerous criminals in the Republic.

He was a mentor to Dorne Teague, the first Shadow Broker, inadvertently teaching him the ways of the criminal underworld and how to use information against his enemies. During the Coruscanti Gang War, Bekkal masqueraded himself as an SIS agent and orchestrated the ensuing chaos to take over the Exchange and claim political immunity by weaponizing his falsely-gained high-ranking position within the SIS.

His treachery was uncovered by Dorne Teague and his allies. Slowly he was toppled from power and Teague used Bekkal's infamy to gather up all the powerful crime lords of Coruscant under his rule, which went on to form the foundation of the Shadow League. Bekkal was killed by the SIS in a relatively short firefight, with the galaxy as a whole temporarily believing Bekkal was the infamous Shadow Broker.
