Peace in the Galaxy! With the fall of the Sith Empire, and new found freedom of the Core Worlds from under Sith tyranny, the eyes of the galaxy turn to the new order. The Sovereign Alliance has been formed in the void of power, uniting the old factions of the rebel alliance and the Imperial Remnant. Though peace has been achieved through bitter bloodshed, only time will tell if it will last... _______________________________________________ The Roleplaying Universe is set technologically parallel to the Legends Expanded Universe (EU), currently about 150 years after the events of the Original Trilogy. It takes place in an alternate timeline in which Disney Star Wars largely did not take place. CANON: Most Star Wars EU (Expanded Universe) produced from the New Hope until the Disney acquisition of Star Wars in 2012 NON CANON: Anything produced by Disney is generally considered non canonical except for the following: Rogue One and The Mandalorian, That means that Episodes 7-9, Rebels, New Clone Wars, The Resistance, and the Novels published after 2012 are considered non-canonical in the RP universe. BORDERLINE CANON/NON CANON: Any Star Wars Videogames. While many contain good stories and good 'force powers' these often do not translate well to a PVP/Story driven Roleplaying experience. Everything done in a videogame should be taken with a grain of salt, and if you wish to reference or use a power from said videogame contact a mod on Discord. _______________________________________________ The Factions The Dark Side The Sith Remnant – Ruled by Darth Calypso, they use the Force in anger and hatred, the Sith are the traditional enemies of the Jedi Order and seek power and domination over others. They are currently attempting to take over the galaxy, and have begun their push to re-establish themselves on the fringes of the galactic disk. The Light Side The Sovereign Alliance – Formed out of the old Rebel Alliance and the Imperial Remnant following the defeat of the Sith Empire. Led by the Supreme commander and his governing council. The Jedi Order - Using the Force for calm, peace, and understanding, the Jedi are servants of the Galaxy fighting for the people outside of the galactic government. The Sovereign Knights - Sworn users of the lightside, attached to the current goverment and its governing council as protectors of the people. Neutral Factions The Black Sun – The ancient and infamous organized criminal syndicate, with significant influence in galactic affairs and Outer Rim dealings. Uncontrollable Factions This is not to say you cannot play someone from these worlds or cultures. You just may not control these subfactions at this time. If you wish to contest this or if you have a plan that you think may work, talk to the mod team The Mandalorians – An ancient warrior culture that has spawned numerous imitators. After the last crusade (see fall of Coruscant) they have closed their borders to all but those that are Mandalorian. The Hapes Consortium – A secluded and powerful matriarchal empire. Hidden behind their Transitory Mists, they watch the fall of empires with anticipation. The Chiss Ascendancy – A secretive empire hidden beyond the explored galaxy. Not much is known of the Chiss other than they keep to themselves and do not interfere with galactic politics. _______________________________________________ Generally Known History: Several years ago the Sith re-emerged from their base on Korriban, taking advantage of the calm and unprepared Galactic Alliance. With a lightning campaign, assisted by several well known terrorists, they achieved complete domination over the inner galaxy. Establishing the new Sith Empire and relegating their few remaining enemies to the outer rim. Eventually they were defeated in the battle of Nar Shaddaa and the new Sovereign Alliance was formed, led by the leadership of the rebel alliance. _______________________________________________ PLANETS THAT HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGED LORE Coruscant Recently mostly destroyed by the collision of one of its moons with the planet surface by a Sith Terrorist. The City is being massively rebuilt in the ruins by a join operation of Sith interests and contractors. Life is slowly returning to the world. Mandalore and the Mandalore system. Mandalorians are not pacifists, their planet is not destroyed and they do not live in bubble cities. They are a militaristic, spartanist society, that remain isolated from the galaxy through force. Dathomir Is a swamp-like world with high cliffs and mountain ranges. Recently suffered devastating fires set by the use of turbolasers to the low lying forests. The Jedi Order has healed the world, and the scattered population of nightsisters remain. (They are not the red cloaked nightsisters of the clone wars or rebels TV show) Carida Is not destroyed, and remains a training world for the new Galactic Alliance. Nar Shaddaa/Nal Hutta Taken by the Imperial Remnant/Rebel Alliance and set up as a commerce/shipyard and housing for refugees. Destroyed in the final battle and left a burned, ruined, and radioactive hulk. _______________________________________________

As the Saarai-Kaar talked about the history of the Jedi and the Sith and how they were related, Bones nodded in acknowledgement and handing over his newly made weapon when gestured to do so. As the talking continued, Bones focused his eyes on the saber in the hands of the Saarai-Kaar, thinking about how he was one of the few people in the galaxy with such a weapon. That made him excited. Bones snapped back to reality when the aged Weequay turned his words to Bones own experience. To which darkness was he referring to? The presence that Bones felt while crafting his blade? Or was he referring to that horrid moment on Coruscant when his sister died? Or worse, was he referring to the family he had killed? Bones wanted to ask, but he feared the answer would be the latter, and Bones did not feel like that was him resisting the darkness, even when he turned himself in. “Um, Thank you sir. Saarai-Kaar sir.” Bones stammered as the Saarai-Kaar finally handed back the blade and applauded the Tognath for his use of asking Aoi for help. Bones felt a smidge of pride rise in him at the words. But training with a new master? The Sarlaac? What a poor choice for a name. At least Sun-Dragon was named after something fearsome. Who would want to be named after a worm in the ground? Still, it sounded like the Sarlaac would be taking Bones out from Raka Nwul and into the galaxy. As much as he had grown accustomed to Sun-Dragon’s harsh training, he yearned for excitement beyond picking Lumas Fruits. As the Saarai-Kaar escorted Bones to the door, he spoke about standing against the darkness. He spoke about entrusting a task to Bones. As he did, Bones felt the pride in him rise further. It had been so long since someone entrusted something important to him. He had almost forgotten this feeling. If he had skin, Bones would’ve been smiling comm implant to comm implant. “Yes Saarai-Kaar. You can count on me, erm, us!” Bones gripped his lightsaber tightly as he vowed this to the being before him. We won’t fail!” And with that, Bones turned and dashed off. His home was nearby, so the run was quick. Breaking into his room, he found that all of his gear since he got here was waiting for him on his bed. On top was his worn-down Slugthrower rifle, polished pistol, and vibroknife. Bones paused at the sight of the rifle, and then picked it up. Its familiar weight and texture felt both correct in his hands as well as well as wrong. He looked down its sights, opened its chamber and inspected it for wear, tear, and rust, and then put it down again, studying it. Bones wasn’t sure what to do. Should he bring the rifle with him or not? He knew he was good with it. He was a good marksman. Slugthrower rifles were harder to handle then blasters, due to how the bullets were affected by outside forces such as gravity and wind. There was a particular kind of art with them, albeit a primitive one. However, Bones wasn’t sure if he was ready to pick up this damnable weapon again. It was the same rifle he had when he turned himself in. But it was also the same rifle he had when his sister died. There was history to this weapon. In the end, Bones slung it over his shoulder and equipped the knife and pistol at his sides as well as an ammo belt going from right shoulder to left hip. He had no idea what was going to be needed for whatever task he was to accomplish with the Sarlaac. He did make sure though that his lightsaber was at his left side. His instincts would draw that weapon first in an emergency. He would use Jho’s rods as a walking staff for now. Bones took one last glance around the quite empty room. He left nothing behind. He carried the data pad in his pocket, he had all of his weapons and gifts he had received so far. He was ready. As he opened the door and exited, he glanced over and to his surprise, found an interesting item on the plant pot. Sitting on top of the little sapling in the dirt was a muddied blue scarf, with gold embroidery. Bones snatched it up and looked around, trying to figure out where it came from. No one else was around. Did the bird that stole the scarf return it? Bones doubted that. Perhaps someone found it and recognized it as the Tognaths? But only two people here knew about the scarf, and only an Ithorian child had actually seen and studied it. Bones shook his head. He knew he didn’t need to keep this, according to Sun-Dragon. He shouldn't keep it. It was just a reminder of the past. But he couldn’t just leave it to the birds again. Bones quickly bent down and dug a bit into the dirt, balled up the scarf, stuffed it inside and then, covered it up. It would be here for him when he eventually returned. Bones left the area, and found himself at the place where Sun-Dragon had begun to teach the art of Arosymladd. No one else was around. Bones wasn’t sure where to go. The Saarai-Kaar had simply told him to be ready. With all of Bones’ personal possessions on his back, he was. A figure walked by. Bones thought it may have been Sun-Dragon, but quickly let that thought disappear. The armor the figure wore was much different. More metallic then Sun-Dragon’s, but just as fearsome. He was easily identifiable as a Jensaarai. “Hey! Excuse me!” Bones called out, beginning to chase after the person. It seemed he was in a rush. “I’m waiting for someone named….” Bones didn’t get to finish. In an instant, the person was far down the street, moving at a pace Bones would not be able to keep up with for long. Whatever the person’s mission was, it was more important then listening to a young Tognath. Bones, alone again, looked around, unsure what to do. He remembered how the Sun-Dragon had begun to train him here. Perhaps Bones could do a little more? Bones placed most of his equipment on the ground as well as some of his upper clothes, revealing his bare, rough, porous exoskeleton. Grabbing a nearby log, Bones planted it into the dirt firmly, making a makeshift dummy. Then, facing it, Bones grabbed his staff and got into a fighting position. One, two, one, two, Bones practiced striking the log again and again. Bark and wood chips flew off as Bones utilized his muscle to make strong, fast strikes. Bones chuckled to himself, feeling a little alive. He was getting a feeling for the staff. Bones tried a few tricks here and there. Spinning the staff once and bringing it in suddenly for a strike, sliding his hands down the metal frame so he could swing the whole thing like a club, and some piercing moves as well. A few times, Bones stopped and tried to focus on the Elements. He would recite the words over and over, though it was clear that he wasn’t feeling it quite the same as before. Practice was needed. Still, Bones did feel he was getting better with the staff. One, two, one, Bones struck, and then taking a step back and spinning around, Bones lunged forward. With all of his might, he plunged the staff into the log. Bones let go of the weapon. The staff wobbled a bit but remained embedded into the piece of wood. “Heh, pity Sun-Dragon didn’t see that” Bones said out loud, studying his work.
