The Data Seekers constituted a clandestine organization, with members dedicated to deciphering the enigmas surrounding the long-ago past of the Anoat sector. Their investigative focus encompassed the genesis of the Kouhun, the endurance and banishment of the Noble Court, the structure of the Ivax Syndicate, and the very presence of the Force. The Seekers, masters of espionage, operated under the guises of merchants, pirates, and traders, extending employment and small pieces of information to anyone who might further their objectives. A notable member, Dazur Dar, also called the Data Broker, dealt not only in classified information, but also in a diverse collection of objects acquired by the Seekers during their journeys.
Leading up to the time of the Iron Blockade, the Seekers had successfully infiltrated the ranks of the Galactic Empire with agents for a considerable number of years. This infiltration enabled them to uncover the reality behind the gassing of Anoat, the existence of prisons located on Deyer, and other sensitive information. Furthermore, the Seekers strategically positioned spies as archivists inside the Noble Court, facilitating their discovery of the clandestine activities of the nobles on Council.
