In Carthag, the Starlight Collective is a notorious criminal gang comprised of ruthless individuals with a penchant for violence and cunning. Led by a mysterious figure known only as "Star Cobra," the gang specializes in smuggling people, while also engaging in extortion, assassination, and illicit trade. With a network of informants and spies scattered throughout the west side of the city, the Starlight Collective maintains a tight grip on their operation, striking fear into the Harkonnen authorities and rival gangs. Their main meeting place is a hooka joint called Lasfire.
While not grand or safe, the market known as Sunset Souk is deep in the shadows between a Guild heighliner maintenance facility and a partially dismantled harvester factory. The street between the two buildings, and more and more into the factory itself, is a labyrinth of stalls and passages. Most traders here are legitimate, yet within, a few ply darker wares. New IDs, illicit substances, weapons, and contraband (counterfeit and stolen) pass between careful merchants.
Within Lasfire, a hooka bar carved out of the former factory, you find a sturdy man with a half sunburnt face. His name is Artemi.
