Ghost cell

The Ghost Cell was an organization of expert assassins and saboteurs that operated during the years of the Cold War. Rumors held that this group were based on a remote planet in the galaxy where they were singularly devoted to the art of training and education of assassins. They were noted for searching for malcontents in order to further their skills and aid in turning such killers performances into an art form. Following the completion of their training, these operatives returned to the larger galaxy in order to make use of their abilities. These disguised Ghost Cell members thus killed their targets and had the ability to bring entire planetary governments.

In the Cold War era, their existence was considered a legend within the intelligence community who believed that they were a myth to explain disasters that had no explanation. Both Imperial Intelligence and the Republic Strategic Information Service had never found any proof to the Ghost Cell's existence. The only basis for the legend was the fact that informants spoke of the organizations existence in a recurrent manner but none of these individuals had ever survived long enough to be debriefed.

During this time, the Eagle's terrorist network was supported by the training provided by the Ghost Cell. Furthermore, they managed to gain a resource in Milosh Varta where they offered protection and assassinations for the Exchange in return for their aid. After striking at Darth Jadus, Imperial Intelligence assigned Cipher Nine with dismantling the Eagle's network and saw the Cipher Agent travel to Tatooine where the Ghost Cell had established a base of operations to support the training of their operatives.
