Malandro syndicate

The Malandro Syndicate was the leading Criminal Syndicate on the planet Tangenine, led by the Falleen Gangster Annaz. They extorted protection money from small businesses and farms like the farm owned by Remba and Kelven Coelho. When the Coelho farm failed to pay up, Annaz killed Remba and Kelven leaving their children, Lauren and Julien Coelho orphaned and forced to live with their gran. Their gran soon fell ill and died and when Julien fell ill, Lauren came to the Malandro Syndicate to take a job to pay for his treatment. She however was caught by the authoroties and landed in jail. Julien was dead by the time she was free. When the Galactic Empire came to Tangenine, they realised the Malandro Syndicate was too embedded into the system and turned to Bounty Hunters to clean up for them. That's when Lauren Coelho returned under the alias Brand. She took jobs primarily for the Malandro Syndicate. With other bounty hunters taking jobs on their gangsters as well, the Malandro Syndicate started to deteriorate in numbers. Brand eventually got revenge on Annaz for the dead of her parents by killing him personally. The Malandro Syndicate fragmented shortly after.
