Following their loss during the Battle of Naboo in 32 BBY, the Trade Federation of Planets established a specialized assassination corps of highly skilled individuals. This corps was created with the specific purpose of enabling the Trade Federation to exact retribution upon the Jedi Order, given that the Jedi Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi were instrumental in ensuring the planet Naboo's triumph over the Trade Federation. However, the assassination corps did not achieve its intended objectives.
The initial reference to this assassination corps appeared within the Trade Federation's entry in the DataBank for Clone Campaigns, which served as the 2002 add-on content for the 2001 Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds video game.
