Star Wars: Defiance In Darkness

[Chris_Reaper]

2,763 B.B.Y.

The Sith-Mandalorian War now rages into it's second year. After a spate of initial victories, the Great Sith Empire, amazingly, finds itself on the defensive. For every Mandalorian soldier taken out, he is replaced by ten more. Out of nowhere, they have been supplied with vast amounts of star destroyers, fleet runners and have been wiping out whole contingents of Dark Side warriors at an alarming rate. The Sith simply cannot make sense of this and have struggled to hold back the Mandalorian onslaught. The Galactic Republic has officially declared neutrality in the conflict and has steadfastly denied supplying the Mandalorians with their new wonder weapons, which have thus far, decimated the Sith forces. Darth Lethalis, the One Sith Warlord and ruler of the Sith Empire has employed every tactic to try and turn back the Mandalorians, but time is running out. Many of the higher ranking Sith, suspect that there is far more going on behind the scenes and that there is an unknown third party working from the shadows, which has somehow resulted in a turn of Mandalore's fortunes. The Jedi Council have vowed to stay out of the war, but find themselves under increasing suspicion from not only the Sith, but from the Senate as well. One thing is for certain, if the Sith do not figure something out soon, this could mean the end of the Great Sith Empire...

Nice opening, any details on the actual game?

 

[Chris_Reaper]

The Sith Empire and the Mandalorians are at war. The Mandalorians have gained an almost impossible leg up in the conflict, despite not being Force users. We will be a group of characters from differing or similar factions who all have a stake in the war. There will be an underlying conspiracy/mystery at the heart of the conflict....namely who or what is the shadowy third party that has become the Mandalorians benefactors. When the conspiracy is figured out and exposed, it will change the face of the Galactic landscape.

So this is non-canon, right? Are you restricting what backgrounds the characters can come from?

 

[Chris_Reaper]

It's inspired by Legends, but yes, very much non canon. But as far as restrictions go, I don't have any in place in the arena of backgrounds at this time. Just be cognizant of the setting.
