• S.L. Easy Martini.  The greatest promoter in the universe.  Three arms, two heads, he's a little weird!  He's got all the charm of a used-car salesman and he gets confused when you use the word "ethics" near him.  He used to be from the same world as M'Lady, where he was in the CIA.  There was an accident involving a particle accelerator, six pounds of bologna, and a box of condoms... and here is is!  Just a two-headed man trying to make it in the world using the skills he has (mainly treachery and shamelessness.)
  
  
• The Azure Dream
  

Pirates and Thieves

• Major Paindog.  Major "Fistful of Credits" Paindog was a fight promoter of the most unscrupulous kind. Reportedly a former Imperial marine who was too brutal for even the Imperial Marines, he was always in search of a sucker, someone to take a dive or throw a fight or be tricked into losing. His whole life was spent on the razor's edge—one wrong move and he would be dead. To the Paindog, fighters were just another commodity, like pussy, booze, weapons, or drugs. He had no loyalty to any one fighter; they came and they went. Paindog longed for the respectability that some men had and secretly hoped that if he made enough money from fighters, people would forget his shady past. But so far that hadn't happened.  Maybe because he called himself "Paindog."
