There's nothing petty about C'kayah's criminal activities. Over the past couple of years, he's built up two organized crime groups from the ground up, working his way from a simple smuggler and thief. His current organization enjoys the favor of the Syndicate (courtesy of an under-the-table job for the Sultansworn), easily brings in many tens of millions of gil a year (ICly, of course), and has it's tendrils in many organizations across Eorzea. His organization employs a legitimate front business and has assets including multiple offices and safehouses scattered across the continent.
In the time that we've been around, as part of various RP arcs, we've smuggled things to avoid tarriffs: brandy, silver, and the like. We've also smuggled illegal things: explosives for a group in Vesper bay - they used them against the Garleans; a Duskwight perfume illegal in Ul'dah; potions and toxins of esoteric sorts. We've also stolen artifacts, precious gems, gold, and the like. We've taken on contract work ranging from ensuring the safety of a client who wanted to infiltrate a militaristic cult through work supporting the Sultansworn's attempts to leash the Flames. We've robbed caravans, we've captured rivals, tortured traitors, fabricated rumors to harm our competitors, and engaged in skirmishes both within Thanalan and without. And lastly, to secure C'kayah's privileges and allow his return to the city, he impersonated an Ishgardian guard to steal an Ishgardian seal for the head of a minor Lalafellan crime family.
There was tax evasion, too. But C'kayah paid the fine for that, for which he has a receipt.
