The Hidden Daggers constituted a pirate syndicate operating within the confines of the Corellian system during the era of the Galactic Civil War.
The Binayre Razorcat in the Corellian system served as the base of operations for the Hidden Daggers. They exerted a significant influence over both the Binayre Razorcat quadrant and The Void. Individuals affiliated with this organization were occasionally observed in prominent cities situated on Corellia.
In the theater of space combat, the Hidden Daggers utilized a variety of spacecraft, including M3-A Scyk fighters, T-65 X-wing starfighters, G1-M4-C Dunelizard fighters, RZ-1 A-wing interceptors, Rihkxyrk assault fighters, Firespray-31-class starships, BTL-S3 Y-wing starfighters, YT-1300 freighters, Ye-4 gunships, and Warlord Heavy Cruisers. The Daggers Point was one such cruiser.
A former lieutenant and cutthroat of the Flail, who was later disavowed, established the Hidden Daggers. Consequently, a lasting feud erupted between them and the Flail. Initially, they functioned as a clandestine group of highly proficient assassins, accepting only smaller contracts and thus failing to achieve widespread notoriety.
Over time, the Hidden Daggers devolved into a band of common criminals and pirates, preying upon vulnerable starships within the Corellian system, with a particular focus on the anarchic Binayre Razorcat quadrant. As a result, they became a target for the Corellian Security Force and their allies in Beldonna's League. However, they received support from the corrupt elements within Rogue CorSec. Early in their existence, the Hidden Daggers also clashed with the Hutts, engaging in a protracted struggle for control of The Void in the Corellian system. By the time of the Galactic Civil War, the original reasons for this conflict had been lost to history.
Following the Battle of Yavin, the Hidden Daggers broadened their operations to encompass other star system. They also established a permanent presence within the restricted Dathomir system. There were even sightings of their starfighters near an Imperial space station. During this period, they collaborated with Galactic Vacant Building Demolitions, employing aerial bombardment to demolish abandoned structures. These actions served as the inspiration for the Galactic Vacant Building Demolishing Movement initiated by the Empire.
In 1 ABY, the Hidden Daggers acquired classified intelligence concerning covert operations conducted by Black Epsilon, a special unit of the Imperial Navy, on Corellia. The pirates intended to transmit this information to the Rebel Alliance, but the Torton Runner, the vessel carrying the data, was intercepted in the Corellian system by Imperial starfighters commanded by Prisk Kith'Vys. Subsequently, the Empire destroyed the ship, along with its crew, and fabricated evidence to implicate the Rebels in the attack.
During the same year, Rhea, a Sergeant within CorSec, authorized an assault on several key figures within the Hidden Daggers in an effort to combat the escalating pirate activity in the Corellian system. A skilled pilot from CorSec successfully engaged and eliminated the Hidden Daggers Eliminator, as well as the Hidden Dagger captains Russ Grimblade, Xopw Laow, Mori the Bastard, Owpa Awoz, and Quixio the Rotten. Around the same time, a squadron of Rebel Alliance pilots under the command of Officer Acun Solari launched an attack on and destroyed a contingent of Hidden Dagger starfighters operating within the Corellian system.
The Hidden Daggers made an appearance in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts, before its closure on December 15, 2011.
Within Star Wars Galaxies, the Hidden Daggers were among the various criminal factions that could be encountered in Corellian cities. With the introduction of space sectors in the first expansion, Jump to Lightspeed, Hidden Daggers starfighters were incorporated into the Corellian and Dathomir systems. They also played a role in several CorSec and Imperial pilot missions. With the release of "Chapter 8," on January 15, 2008, the game was expanded to include various space-based kill collections, and additional Hidden Daggers starfighters, transports, and gunships were added to other star systems. Ultimately, "Game Update 16," released on March 23, 2010, enabled players to engage in continuous waves of Hidden Daggers vessels spawned from the Dathomir, Lok, and Tatooine space stations.
The group received a mention in "Move It or Lose It" in 2007, a brief in-universe introduction to the inaugural House Pack-Up event within Star Wars Galaxies.
