Originating on O'Render, the 7 Group's roots reach back to before the passage of the Corporate Rules and Responsibilities Act of 2882. In 2888, the now extinct Arogg Family, the most dominant syndicate at the time, together with six other crime families and organizations, each with a large power base on and off world put aside their respective differences to come together to form one of the most influential conglomerates, legal or otherwise in the entire sector. Over the next three plus centuries, the 7 Group spread out across the sector, taking power by absorbing, or rolling over each component of the underworld as they came upon them. 

​

The various world's 7 Group organizations, called Slivers, operate independently with their own separate power structure. The Slivers pay a sliding percentage of their revenues to the mother organization on O’Render. In return, they receive support in the form of money laundering, reinforcing manpower and arms and other goods and services unavailable to them on their own worlds as well as numerous benefits gained as members of a network of syndicates stretching across the sector.

​

The Mother Group, based in O’Render’s capitol city of Vetalmo is controlled by a body called the Committee, consisting of 7 Sliver Bosses, one from each of the founding member syndicates. The Committee is chaired by the Group Leader, currently Falleen Ur, who has controlled the 7 Group for nearly 90 years, growing its reach and wealth beyond anything the membership had dreamed of before. Under her control, investing in legitimate ventures, doing business with the sector government and the Church, as well as holding a tight grip on the less scrupulous endeavors they’ve always controlled, the 7 Group has become one of a handful of truly all encompassing, sector wide organizations, controlling much of what goes on in every corner of known space.
