He kept his hand in both the high life and the criminal underworld , hiring the Nalle triplet spies to keep an eye on those he wanted monitored .

The male Ongree Acros - Krik lived in the last decades of the Galactic Republic and was affiliated with the crime syndicate Black Sun . Intending to gain a new resource of political Republic information , Black Sun inserted Acros - Krik as the mayor of Coruscant ' s Uscru Entertainment District ; since the district was in close proximity to the Senate District , Black Sun would be able to gain access to the upper echelons of the galactic capital ' s political cadre . With a rigged election , Acros - Krik was installed by Black Sun as the District ' s mayor . In return for this service , he would work as an informer , passing along valuable nuggets of information to his criminal superiors .

Eventually , it was understood that if a being wanted preferential treatment in Uscru , they would go to the mayor . Shady operations . Uscru wallowed in crime and corruption , and Acros - Krik was far from having his hands clean in both matters . However , instead of keeping a low profile like his affiliates , he made sure he was visible to all of his citizens , and painted himself as a benevolent and boisterous leader . Utilizing his connections with both the Black Sun and the Republic , he was confident enough to walk the city streets amongst the denizens , and in time , he came to be viewed as a father figure whom others could look to for guidance .

Acros - Krik would enlist the services of locals to do his bidding , as in the case of the Nalle triplets , and would personally aid any politicians hoping to enjoy a favorable experience in Uscru . Though his modus operandi clashed with Black Sun technique , his connections in high places afforded him a great deal of confidence in his work .
