"We are lords. Crime lords."
―Maul[15]

A crime lord,[16] also known as a crime lady,[17] crime kingpin,[18] or crime boss,[19] was someone who ruled over a criminal organization.[20]

The Sith Lords Maul and Savage Opress became crime lords in their plot to gather multiple criminal syndicates as a base of power for their planned conquest during the Clone Wars.[21] Maul continued to command Crimson Dawn into the time of the Galactic Empire.[22]

Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa, and Han Solo—heroes of the Rebellion[23]—had to escape greedy crime lords such as Jabba the Hutt in their adventures. The desert world of Tatooine,[20] the swampy world of Nal Hutta, and the jungle world of Teth were amongst the many worlds ruled by Hutt Clan crime lords such as Jabba.[8]

During the reign of the Empire, Cikatro Vizago was a Devaronian crime lord who ran the Broken Horn Syndicate,[2] whilst the Quarren Lallani was a crime lady who boasted Mandalorian mercenaries, and was a rival of Jabba's.[17]
