Zann Consortium/Legends

"I am Tyber Zann. Corruption is my weapon. And while the Galaxy is distracted by civil war, I will strike."

- Tyber Zann

The Corrupt Side was an underworld movement led by Tyber Zann to sabotage and interfere with Rebel Alliance and Galactic Empire affairs during the Galactic Civil War.

Formation and dissolution
The Corrupt Side was formed sometime between 19 BBY and 1 BBY. Led by crimelord Tyber Zann, the movement spread "corruption" throughout The Galaxy.

The movement was temporarily disbanded after Jabba the Hutt got Zann imprisoned in the spice mines of Kessel.

Battle of Kessel and reformation
Zann continued to rot in the prisons of Kessel until he managed to contact Han Solo and Chewbacca and hire them to assist him in starting an uprising.

Zann and a number of prisoners broke free of their prisons and faced Imperial Stormtroopers in combat. The succeeded in escaping, and the Corrupt Side once again rose in power once again with Zann back in control.

Lust for power
The Corrupt Side's main goal was to capture a prototype Eclipse-class Star Dreadnought that would give them the power to destroy entire capital ships with its devestating superlaser.

They were also intent on gaining a mysterious Sith artifact.

Tactics
The Corrupt Side used its extensive crime network to influence the warring factions, siphon their credits, and sabotage their operations when necessary.

With access to the black market, Zann had several unique technologies at his disposal, including shield generators and stealth generators that allowed movement undetected to enemy planets.
