"I have been a mercenary, an assassin and a member of a crew aboard a sophisticated starship. We worked proactively, always with a goal in mind to ensure success and glory walked hand in hand. We weren’t concerned with the aftermath or the consequences and merely walked onto the next task. But who takes care of the fall out? Who clears up the blood and the bodies, the wreckage and detritus? Who makes the witnesses change their minds or disappear into thin air? Who scours the holonet for disparaging evidence that could be used against us? Who hides the space scrap within asteroid fields to ensure it will never be found? The answer is no one. At least until now."

―Mks Ehn - Battleteam Leader of Operation Styx.

Purpose

The motivation of Operation Styx is to maintain Arcona’s lack of presence within the Dajorra System and ensure their actions remain shrouded in secrecy. Utilising a lightning-fast response Styx erases any objectionable part that House Qel-Droma, or the Clan itself, plays in its many operations.

Common Activities and Methods of Operation

Force Exposure

The first step to revealing Arcona’s presence is the discovery of the Force. Once a lightsaber is drawn no one can predict the level of destruction to the environment and the same can much be said for the use of the Force. Styx remains vigilant to these tells and is quick to remove them.

Witness Management

A secret is held best between two people - even better if it’s just one. Dead men tell no tales, after all. Styx’ members do whatever is necessary to keep the information silenced, by persuasion or force (or indeed, Force). This can take many possible forms. Sometimes, a witness may simply disappear. At others, they suddenly recant, their friends and families looming under threat until they change their mind. Yet other times, the Fixers resort to simple persuasion or even bribery - Styx has a keen appreciation of the persuasive power of cash.

Infiltration & Evidence Retrieval

Epaxial though it is, Arcona’s monumental status as a Clan has cracks in it. On occasion we have been the subject of unwelcome attention and scrutiny, from law enforcement and criminal empires alike. Styx’s specialists are trained in infiltrating securely held locations and retrieving evidence that is damaging to the Clan - and planting evidence to direct the blame where it rightfully belongs: on Arcona’s enemies.

Crisis Concealment

The job of a Fixer is not glamourous. It requires a level of attention that goes above and beyond the usual level of awareness, but it is this awareness that makes them key. A crisis can occur at any moment and it is in that moment that a Styx operative’s alacrity is truly challenged. An operative must attempt to conceal anything remotely related to the Force or Arcona itself; however this is often with limited means. It is more often the case that an operative will instead require the use of subterfuge, allying themselves with whatever agency falls upon the event itself in order to manipulate the conclusions. Our job is then to guide the investigation - by means of law enforcement or criminal gang alike - to remove any implication from ourselves but also directing it towards our rivals.
