The Dlarit Corporation is the overseeing holding company that serves as the public front for Tron Sadow and his Clan of Dark Jedi. Its main subsidiaries are Dlarit Mining and the Dlarit Security Force. The CEO of the Dlarit Corporation is known as the viceroy, a position held by Tron Sadow as the owner.
The company has its roots in the Xucphra corporation, one of the two bacta-producing corporations in the Galaxy. The company was forced to cede control of bacta to the Vratix and Zaltin after the Bacta War in 7 ABY. The corporation went through a catastrophic change after the death of Aerin Dlarit and his daughter Erisi, the legitimate heir to the company was Aerin's adopted son Astronicus. He, however, was not interested in running a mega-corporation and instead decided to sell his shares of the corporation to one of his father's close friends. Astronicus established an account in one of the many banks of Muunilinst while he went about developing his military career with the Imperial Navy.
After the signing of the Pellaeon-Gavrisom Treaty in 19 ABY, Astronicus withdrew his monetary gains and began investing them towards the creation of the Dlarit Corporation in support of House Naga Sadow along with his income as an Admiral in the Imperial Navy and what he received as Governor of Sif. Thanks in a large part due to the financial genius of several members within the House, the money was used wisely and grew exponentially.
The Dlarit Corporation controls the official government of the Orian system together with the system's military presence via Dlarit Security Force. It maintains control of the system's economy and overall civilian infrastructure by way of Dlarit Mining. The Dlarit Corporation also has its hands in various other smaller operations throughout the galaxy, including several in the Phare system.
In addition to the Dlarit Security Force which is tasked primarily with the home defense of the Orian system, the Dlarit Special Operations Group, more commonly known as D-SOG, is charged with external threat prevention. In reality, D-SOG is the actual cover operation for the members of Clan Naga Sadow and provides them with wide reaching powers over all other facets of the Dlarit Corporation.
Administration
Board of Directors
Chairman
The Chairman or Chief Executive Officer of the Dlarit Corporation replaces the role of Viceroy although only in title, the Chairman remains the elusive owner and de facto Head of State for the Orian system through the Corporation's integral symbiosis with the star system. As with before, Astronicus Aurelius Sadow, raised Astronicus Aurelius Dlarit, remains the Chairman of the Board.
President
As with before, the President or Chief Operating Officer of the Dlarit Corporation is the head of hte Corporation's day-to-day operations. While formerly known as the Governor General, the President or COO supervises all activity within the Coporation and Orian system while relying upon their Vice-president for assistance. Behind the scenes, this position is synonymous with the highest station within Naga Sadow as a unit: Consul as a Clan and Quaestor as a House.
Vice-President
The Vice-President supports the President of the Corporation as their chief aide and assists with its oversight and operation. All activity passing through the Vice-president's office, either through the system itself or the Corporation proper, are thoroughly detailed and documented through their directors. Behind the scenes, this positions is synonymous with the second highest station within Naga Sadow as a unit: Proconsul as a Clan and Aedile as a House.
Chief Personnel Officer
A new title for an already existant operator within the framework of the Dlarit Corporation, the Chief Personnel Officer deals primarily with the Board of Directors and their Special Operations Group liasons. While this figure deals with the civilian populous more often than much of the rest of the board, they ensure that all those whom operate within Dlarit are comfortable and happy. Behind the scenes, this position is synonymous with the Rollmaster of Naga Sadow.
Executive Director
With the implimentation of civilian liasons to military Prefects for the oversight of the planetary bodies within Orian, the position of Directors were generated to ensure various elements of the Corporation were not over burdened with Special Operations personnel. Executive Directors perform various tasks with the aid of a Senior Director and in some cases a Director or two; they report directly to the President and Vice-president of the Corporation. Behind the scenes, this position is synonymous with the leader in care of the highest tiered sub-units of Naga Sadow: House Quaestor as a Clan and Battleteam Leader as a House.
Senior Director
As with the Executive Director, the Senior Director is a relatively new title for a former figure within Naga Sadow and the Dlarit Corporation. As Governors have become primarily military in nature through Prefectures or a Civillian office which liases with a Prefect; Directors are designated to ensure the continued efficient operation of the Corporation. The Senior Director is the principal aide to the Executive Director and reports to the President and Vice-president in their absence. Behind the scenes, this position is only viable while Naga Sadow is a unit of Clan status as this station is synonymous with the Aedile of a House under a Clan.
Director
A title for a new station exclusively for select Military liasons, this is not to be confused with a commercial Director, within the Dlarit Corporation. In a bid to consolidate the Corporation under a singular banner, these former commercial Presidents are now known as Directors for their various subsidaries, likewise Special Operations liasons tasked to Executive and Senior Directors have been awarded the title of Director due to their influence not only for their military standing but also their effects on the Corporation as a whole. The title has also been expanded to other Special Operations personnel whom operate above and beyond the call of standard personnel to co-ordinate with their additional oversight. Behind the scenes, this militant title is extended to our Sons and Daughters of Sadow for their continued service and standing to Naga Sadow, whereas its other usage is only viable while Naga Sadow is a unit of Clan status as this station is synonymous with Battleteam Leaders within a House of a Clan.
Department of Defense
Adjutant General
The title of Adjutant General is held by the head of the Dlarit Security Force and acts as the primary liaison between the Security Force and the Executive Board. The Adjutant General is traditionally an experienced Admiral or General selected by the Board for their loyalty and skill. In practice it is little more than a puppet role for the Disciples of Sadow and rarely the Adjutant General is selected from their numbers.
Chief of Staff
The Chief of Staff of the Dlarit Army is its most senior general officer. The Chief of Staff bears full authority over the Dlarit Army as bestowed upon them by the Adjutant General and the Executive Board. The Chief of Staff also supervises the work of the corporation's civilian police force.
Commander General
The Commander General is the head of the Dlarit Special Operations Group serves as the main representative of the special forces wing of the Dlarit Corporation for the main board of directors. The Commander General is almost always a senior member of Naga Sadow.

Marine Commandant
The title of Commandant is held by the head of the Dlarit Marines, a branch of the Dlarit Army. The Marine Commandant is traditionally a loyal member of the Marine Corps selected by the Chief of Staff and Fleet Commander, reporting to a member of the Special Operations Group, the Chief of Staff or the Fleet Commander.
Police Commissioner
Though Dlarit Police is a subsidiary of the Dlarit Army, the Commissioner retains a seat within the department of the interior to provide the civilian police force with an independent voice. As a civilian organization, the commissioner's powers remain largely restricted in comparison to the army however though the Dlarit Police serve a much wider role within the cities of the Orian system such as Markosian City and Seng Karash, especially following the events of the Ekind Uprising.
Department of Internal Security
Commissar
Commissar is the title held by political officers with the Dlarit Corporation selected from the ranks of the Special Operations Group to work within the Security Force and Special Operations Group to reinforce the ideology of the Corporation's true masters. A Commissar is given complete jurisdiction to judge the actions of any trooper or officer under their authority and to act accordingly. Amongst miscreant soliders, a Commissar's wrath is as frequent a cause of fatality as an enemy. A Commissar's word is immutable law and their visage is one of grim authority that is to be respected and rightly feared. Commissars have become a far more common sight upon every vessel of the Dlarit Navy following the Battle of Antei and the Invasion of Orian to enforce the Overlord's will.
Special Attaché
Special Attaché is the title granted to military advisors appointed by the Dlarit Special Operations Group to monitor the activities aboard many of the vessels within the Dlarit Navy and within Dlarit Army outposts. They are selected in part thanks to their impressive loyalty, usually found to be greater than that of a typical Special Operations solider, to ensure that the activities of the Disciples of Sadow are kept undiscovered by the civilian population within the Security Force. Occassionally, albeit rarely, a Special Attaché will be selected from within the members of the Disciples of Sadow although this will typically only be the case when a stronger presence is required.
Department of Commerce
Governor
The title of Governor is held by a Civilian appointed by the Executive Board of the Corporation to oversee the Civillian population of the worlds within the Orian system. Officially the Governors are the Corporation's chief representatives in the Orian system, however in practice they are little more than puppets for the Corporation's true masters. Principal worlds such as Aeotheran and Tarthos are typically overseen by a Governor. The title was formerly synonymous with Quaestors for a House within Naga Sadow, it has since been succeeded by Executive Director.
Mayor
Mayor is the title held by a senior elected official of the municipal government of Markosian City and Seng Karash. These individuals have extremely limited power and command within the Dlarit Corporation and by extension the Orian system due to the use of planetary Governors and the Executive Board. While their resources and control of their cities are limited, these individuals act as representatives of the growing civilian population within the Orian System for the Corporation.
Director (Commerce)
The title of Director outside of a military usage, refers to the senior elected officials within the various subsidaries of the Dlarit Corporation who oversee the continued profit an survivalbility for their organizations. While each of these individuals have been assigned different tasks within the Corporation as a whole, each ensures their internal staff are content and the loyalty of their subsidary is unquestioning in the face of an evolving Corporation; they report directly to their planetary Governors.
Department of Foreign Affairs
Legate
Legate is the title held by the chief ambassador of the Dlarit Corporation to the Galactic Alliance senate. The Legate represents the corporation as an affiliated state despite not being a full member state of the Galactic Alliance. Due to the growing prominence of the Orian system as an exporter of various rare goods, the Legate helps deflect the Galactic Alliance's attention and potential interference.
