Jacko Diamond was the alias of a member of a rebel resistance group on planet Zurich on 3057.
History[edit]
During Operation GUERRERO, the government of the planet of Zurich fell. Formerly a Capellan world, it was conquered during the Fourth Succession War. The new government was composed of Zhanzheng de Guang rebels who had been fighting the old government. Led by Xu Ning, the new government executing hundreds of persons publicly, arresting and torturing more. Numerous resistance groups were born, the most effective of which was a cell led by the so-called Dancing Joker, who left a poker card of a joker behind as a calling card.[1]
Dancing Joker's success led to copycat groups forming, who also took to leaving poker cards. One of them was Jacko Diamond, who was so named for the cards he (or she) left behind. Dancing Joker himself mentioned possibly recruiting Jacko when speaking about recruiting more people to his cell, but it is unclear if the two ever met.[2]
The secret of Diamond's origin and success was revealed when Tormano Liao, the recently-deposed leader of the Free Capella Movement, revealed to Katherine Steiner-Davion, that Jacko was one of his operatives, but even Tormano admitted that Diamond was less successful than the Dancing Joker.[3]
The Zurich government eventually fell thanks to the Dancing Joker's actions, and the planet was returned to Federated Commonwealth control. Most details of Jacko Diamond remain a mystery, including their true identity, their eventual fate, or even if they worked alone or led a group.
