	'''Dark Skies Gearworks''' was a recycling company operating from [[Vorsia Companion]] in the [[Neshig\|Neshig Sector]]. The independent operation was brought to the galaxy in [[Year 13]] on Day 185 of the Combine Galactic Time (CGT) with the simple intention of providing reliable services, and keeping a small family orientated workplace. The relaxed environment and upmost integrity helped retain employees, while giving prospective and existing clients the comfort in knowing they were getting an honest quote and assessment for their needs, without the bureaucratic bias other companies might try to push.

The company officially closed in [[Year 14]] on Day 282, when Forgemaster [[Lilith Delcroix\|Delcroix]] felt she was no longer able to lead and had nobody available to take over. Its spiritual successor was Vorsia Gearworks company, nationalized by the [[Trade Federation]].

Its beginning was slow and only after Catra persuaded [[Lilith Delcroix]] to join the administration board it began to see more profit. Rather quickly Delcroix went to second in command and later took on the mantle of the Director. The company saw increase in profits after only few weeks, which kept the business afloat in a privatized sense.

	Even though the profits were coming in, Delcroix did not see long term prosperity in the logistics operation. She desired something with more options and saw an opportunity that would help her privately as well as provide opportunity for the company to grow. Delcroix's privately owned moon needed reconstruction plans to be finished and the galaxy lacked more independent recycling companies. After some discussions and planning, the Dael`mor Logistics was dissolved and its assets, along with several loyal pilots, were used to create the Dark Skies Gearworks. Catra was co-owner of the company until [[Year 13]] Day 341, when ownership was fully transferred to Delcroix.

			==The Masterforge==
			The headquarters of Dark Skies Gearworks was the Masterforge, a building that acted as an administrative hub where the leadership of the company could plan its future, while also working together to inspire present and potential employees about their vision and plans for society on Vorsia Companion. Designed in part by Forgemaster Delcroix, the Masterforge had state of the art offices for the employees of Gearworks, while promoting technologically advanced research laboratories to help create and advance recycling and construction tools to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of operations.

			In the main atrium of the facility stood a large ornate statue of Delcroix, which was donated by the local citizens to show their appreciation for all the company has done for local employment opportunities and the economy at large. The statue was surrounded by various ornaments and plaques created from the relics and scraps of the first recycling operations undertaken by Gearworks, each ornament paid tribute to various individuals and organisations that helped shape the company. The Masterforge building was mostly demolished during farewell party when the company closed, however, the tribute hall was retained. Notable past members honoured were:

			*Sienna Sutek
			*Katarina Catra

			===Gearworks forging===
			[[File:DSG-CPM.png\|right\|Gearworks advertisement.]]The foundations for what would become Dark Skies Gearworks were laid down when Cait Catra and other Mandalorians of the Dael'mor clan started their first business known as Dael'mor Logistics. It wasn't an extension of the clan but a functioning small, private transportation business with funding from the clan.

			Even though the profits were coming in, Delcroix did not see long term prosperity in the logistics operation. She desired something with more options and saw an opportunity that would help her privately as well as provide opportunity for the company to grow. Delcroix's privately owned moon needed reconstruction plans to be finished and the galaxy lacked more independent recycling companies. After some discussions and planning, the Dael`mor Logistics was dissolved and its assets, along with several loyal pilots, were used to create the Dark Skies Gearworks. Catra was co-owner of the company until [[Year 13]] Day 341, when ownership was fully transferred to Delcroix.

			===Government Associations===
			The business relationship between Dark Skies Gearworks and the [[Trade Federation]] began not long after the company was established with headquarters close to the government's borders. After several highly successful operations, the Act of Vorsia was signed on [[Year 14]] Day 26 to pursue a path of mutual diplomatic understanding between Gearworks and the Federation to further economic prosperity of the [[Vorsia\|Vorsia system]]. Later in the same year, Gearworks was one of the founding companies that sold various products through Trade Federation's Department of Trade, which later became the Trade Federation Market. It mainly supplied blueprints for recycling equipment and junk-fighter starships, also known as uglies. The company was also in negotiations with Avance Coalition as it planned to expand its base of operations to the south-western quadrant of the galaxy. However, only the Agreement of Goodwill was signed between Gearworks and the Coalition before the company closed.

			===Closure===
			The closure of Dark Skies Gearworks operations on galactic scale came as a surprise to business analysts and employees alike. Only two months after the company celebrated its first year anniversary. There were no indications of financial struggle or shortage of workers, and the company continued to expand in membership and services. Forgemaster Delcroix revealed in her public statement that her reasons were not based on the status of the company, but her own inability to continue its management.

			:"''It is because of the success that I have decided to close down; I did not wish to see Gearworks become unreliable and struggle to maintain itself. We could not continue without changing too much or putting the burden of leadership onto someone not ready for it. After my personal life took a severe blow when my wife disappeared, I soon knew that my ability to lead Gearworks was fading. I could not continue to affect and be responsible so many people with clear continence.''"
