Mantis Syndicate was a member house of the Bounty Hunter's Guild. It was formed by Marina Mantis, aka "Lady Mantis," and had branched out as a mercenary outfit as well. Operating primarily in Sarin Sector of the Outer Rim, it had almost a battalion worth of trained bounty hunters. Until early in the New Republic era it was on retainer to High Lord Jaris Affric. In that capacity it clashed with the Rebel Alliance and with Churhee's Riflemen.
Lady Mantis withdrew her contract with Affric after he defaulted on his payments to the house. Shortly thereafter it formerly declared its allegiance to the New Republic. Nevertheless, it remained noncommittal in the Galactic Civil War and would work for whomever would pay.
