Lucilfer decided to dispatch the Troupe for a mission to raid the Yorknew auction and steal everything there despite the fact that this would cause hostilities with every faction there. Members of the group then infiltrated the city to go to the underground auction where they proceeded to massacre the mafia members there in order to steal the contents of the vault.

History
Phantom Troupe (幻影旅団? Genei Ryodan Literally meaning: Ghost Brigade) were a gang of thieves that operated in the world.
Around seven years ago, the Troupe had been gathered by their leader Chrollo Lucilfer to an isolated village occupied by the Kurta Clan. The clan were noted for their scarlet eyes when seeing extreme emotions and for being notable fighters. However, the eyes were seen as unusual and something that was desired by Lucilfer with the Troupe being sent to kill the clan to acquire their eyes. Despite their skill, the Kurta Clan was largely wiped out with the eyes being taken. Uvogin had been a member during this time and had enjoyed the battle against such skilled foes though had no regrets for killing them. Years ago, Silva Zoldyck of the Zoldyck Family of assassins was noted to had killed one of the spiders and noted that no bounty was worth the price to fight the rest of the Troupe.
It was said that the last time the Troupe had gathered together with all of its members was three years ago.
Lucilfer decided to dispatch the Troupe for a mission to raid the Yorknew auction and steal everything there despite the fact that this would cause hostilities with every faction there. Members of the group then infiltrated the city to go to the underground auction where they proceeded to massacre the mafia members there in order to steal the contents of the vault.

Overview
It was a group of thieves who stated that they took what they wanted. Each was noted for being a powerful Nen user and being highly talented warriors. In total, they consisted of 13 members each of whom had a twelve legged spider tattoo on their body with a number designating their place in the Troupe. Due to the tattoo, they were also referred to as the spiders (スパイダー, supaidā). Replacement of their number could be achieved in one of two different ways. One involved them being killed by a challenger in which case their killer took their place in the ranks of the Phantom Troupe. If the Troupe member died in an event, then their vacancy was filled by the leaders group who was responsible for finding a replacement member. Fighting was not allowed between members of the Phantom Troupe with disputes settled by a flip of a coin with the two spiders deciding to choose one of the two sides to represent them and the loser followed the winners decision. It was said that the Troupe did not take a tally of their kills as this was irrelevant to them. Those familiar with the group referred to them as spiders due to it being their insignia. Typically, they stole and killed as part of their activities but it was said that on occasion they did philanthropic work.
An unspoken rule of the Troupe was to bring targets back either dead or alive.
