"He's leading the Glo'kaans in the direction we need to go. Finally, for the first time in this gangs history, we have a goal to reach; and its all thanks to Orunta." -Ordo Syndul on Sida Orunta
Sida Orunta is a Rodian male from Rodia. Orunta joined the Glo'kaans street gang a short time after it was formed, and formed a close relationship with the gang's leader, Aktu Samii. After Samii's death in 67 ABY, Orunta was voted to lead the Glo'kaans by his fellow comrades. As leader, Orunta turned the gang's traditional "Male Rodians Only" law into the "Rodians Only" law. After making this decision, Orunta initiated Ruba Syndul, making her the first female member of the Glo'kaans.
Biography[]
Early Life[]
Orunta joined the Glo'kaans sometime after its formation on Rodia. As a member, he would form a close relationship with the gangs leader, Aktu Samii. Orunta played a vital part in the gangs campaign to expand past Rodia, managing to gather many starships for them to use. Because of his accomplishment, he quickly gained respect from other Glo'kaan members.
Leading the Glo'kaans[]
Following the assassination of Samii in 67 ABY, Orunta departed from Rodia with a large group of Glo'kaans and made for 'Gordamaus'. While en route to the space station, Orunta's ship was attacked by members of the Mokaus gang, but the former managed to fend off the attackers. When he arrived to the space station, he and the Glo'kaans debated on who their new leader would be. After a short discussion, Orunta was voted to take Samii's place. A few days later, he accepted a deal offered by Kree'Tub to make 'Gordamaus' a permanent Glo'kaan headquarters in exchange for his life. However, the Rodian gang leader threatened to imprison the Besalisk once he realized that the deal didn't involve the Glo'kaans assuming full control over the station, to which Kree'Tub laughed and dared Orunta to even think about turning against him.
Orunta departed from 'Gordamaus', leaving Ordo Syndul in charge of the remaining Glo'kaan members on the station, and began his quest to expand the gangs territory.
Change of Tradition[]
In late 67 ABY, the Glo'kaans began experiencing heavy losses during the war with the Mokaus, and Orunta believed that the gang needed to recruit more members to their ranks. Wanting to maintain the gangs tradition of strictly-Rodian membership, Orunta dismantled the "Male Rodians Only" law and replaced it with the "Rodians Only" law, allowing female Rodians to become Glo'kaan members. This angered some of the gangs eldest members, who believed the gang didn't need female members. Nonetheless, Orunta initiated Ruba Syndul (brother of Ordo Syndul) into the gang, making her the first female Glo'kaan.
