History:
Yacoub was born into the Ha'la'tha, his father was one of the Guatrau's close contacts. His father laundered money for him and kept his business more legitimate. Yacoub's mother was a stay at home mother that favored the families ties to the Ha'la'tha.
As a youth Yacoub was destined for greatness. His father encouraged him to expand his mind and to follow politics closely. He wanted his son to never be blinded by what the government was telling him. As Yacoub grew older he had a knack for getting himself out of trouble. He was conniving and charismatic. His father further encouraged this type of behavior. If Yacoub was in trouble and he was able to con his way out of a punishment by lying or by use of pure charisma his father would reward it rather than punish him. Yacoub's mother wasn't fond of the way he was raising his eldest son but she had little say when it came to the boys of the family.
Yacoubs younger brothers looked up to him but they didn't have the same charismatic abilities as Yacoub. They took after his mother's side. They where all athletic boys. The brothers were close and if you messed with one of them you got all of them. Yacoub wanted to help his family's power grow in the Ha'la'tha the only way he knew. So he decided to study politics and went to school for economics seeing as it was always a hot topic come election time. At twenty-two Yacoub ran for city council. With the help of his family and the pull of the Ha'la'tha he became a city councilor even at his young age. As a city councilor Yacoub helped loosen some of the restrictions on business helping his sect of the Ha'la'tha gain even more power and clout. As he continued to help the Ha'la'tha he became part of their family and got his first tattoo. After serving as a city counselor for two terms he ran for mayor. He had gained some prowess as a politician and gained the position with little aid from the Ha'la'tha.
As mayor he changed the way crime was recorded and dropped the crime rate of the city by 30% in his first term. Yet he turned a blind eye to most of what the Ha'la'tha was doing. They worked with him so his city didn't get out of control. They where able to increase their influence simultaneously furthering his influence in the city and the Ha'la'tha's own. He served twelve years as the mayor.
After his twelve years as mayor the Ha'la'tha wanted him to run for regional governor so that they would have even more power in the area. As he was running he was falling behind the incumbent regional Governor. As the race heated up, the incumbent decided to drop from the race due to "some family matters". When the incumbent dropped out Yacoub had a significant lead on the other candidates. when all was said and done he won the race and became Governor. While Governor his influence with the Ha'la'tha grew even more. He worked well with the Guatrau and gained favor for himself and his family in his eyes. Yacoub's family gained even more power among the ranks of the Ha'la'tha. His brothers went from enforcers to running some of the businesses to finally captains, and the Ha'la'tha made sure to keep Yacoub safe with subtle guards around the governor's mansion. Yacoub's brothers where very close to him although he had to keep a respectable distance from them so it didn't appear the Ha'la'tha was pulling the strings. As Governor he decreased crime over the entire region and gave the economy a good boost just as he had done previously as mayor. He improved the standard of living for the region by a calculated 15% across the board. When Yacoub ran for re-election the other parties running had little chance of victory.
After serving his second term as Regional Governor Yacoub and the Ha'la'tha decided he should move into a more national role of government. Yacoub ran for the the National quorum of Tauron, becoming the Representative for the people of Tauron city. While he was the Representative he hardened restrictions on drugs allowing the Ha'la'tha to up their profits in the drug trade. He helped Tauron become a more prosperous planet and helped the Ha'la'tha gain more control and power. Before the attacks happened he was on a colonies tour to raise more money and clout for his attempt to become the Quorum delegate for all of Tauron.
