Although the Human Princess Tsian, a part of the royal family, continued to live well, due to the political situation on her homeworld, the princess no longer had access to the funds she previously had. As a result, Tsian became an assassin for hire. She had the Psicom 1260 interface, which allowed her to control assassin droids with her thoughts, cybernetically implanted into her brain and then used her diplomatic status as a princess to carry out political assassinations off-world.
==Behind the scenes==
Old Mankoo was first mentioned in Honor and Duty, Part 2, the forty-seventh issue of the Dark Horse Comics' Star Wars: Republic comic-book series. The issue was written by John Ostrander and published on December 11, 2002.
The entry for Old Mankoo in the 2008 The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia placed the planet in the Outer Rim Territories, contradicting Republic 47, which placed it in that region's vicinity instead. The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas subsequently placed the Old Mankoo system, and therefore the planet itself, in grid square N-17 as part of the Mid Rim, and the StarWars.com Online Companion to that book later specified that the Old Mankoo system was situated in the Quess sector, which formed a part of the Mid Rim's border with the Outer Rim Territories.
