Daniera Karmony is a young, up-and-coming agent in New Republic Intelligence. Highly regarded by her supervisors, Daniera has earned multiple commendations in her relatively short tenure with the NRI and caught the attention of General Airen Cracken himself.

She is intelligent, attractive, and cool. Her analytic ability and computer proficiency are amazing considering her age. With more experience, Daniera could be one of the best and brightest operatives in the New Republic. As such, Cracken has taken Daniera under his wing, challenging her with advanced missions to see just how good the girl really is.

Capsule:
Luu-Mah Mah-Luu isn’t typical ‘True Ubese.’ He does not share their slight build (and that’s being kind), he could care less about taking vengeance on the yrak pootzck Ubese, and his only love of technology comes in the form of the thermal detonator always in his grasp. Hence his nickname, ‘Thermal.’

Mah-Luu is a entrepreneur in the loosest sense of the word. He owns many enterprises, gleefully counts his profits, and orders people around; however he has no love for any of his operations or operatives for that matter. He is in business for one reason and one reason only… to maximize his pleasures in life.

One of his favorites is intimidating others. ‘Thermal’ sits behind a desk created entirely of fused bone matter. He is never without a thermal detonator in his hand (and at least three more somewhere about his person), which he gleefully switches on and off while speaking to people. Mah-Luu also tends to giggle a lot, often at extremely inappropriate moments. Overall, one gets the impression that Mah-Luu is not someone to annoy.

Mah-Luu’s Muscle

Once in a great while, Mah-Luu’s attempts at intimidation do not work. For these and other situations where a more direct approach is necessary, ‘Thermal’ relies on depraved Rodian mercenaries of the bloodthirsty Scarlet Guard. Mah-Luu has the group under contract and utilizes them in a variety of ways. Their tasks include bodyguarding ‘Thermal’ and his guests, debt collection, and assassination.

‘Thermal’ Ventures

Mah-Luu owns a half-dozen businesses, most of which dabble (or plunge headlong) into criminal activity. Two of these nefarious enterprises are located on Coruscant:

• Dark Vortex Club:
A veritable playground for the elite of Coruscant’s underworld where anything can be bought or sold. This is where Mah-Luu keeps his office. His majordomo, the greasy Twi’lek called Vab D’Buula, organizes most of his affairs from here, too.

• The Hold-Out:
This scummy dive doubles as a warehouse for black market goods. There are many secret storerooms hidden away in this establishment, and it doubles as the Scarlet Guard headquarters.
