The APP
Name: Dag Shae
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Allegiance paid to: Dag has a lost of priorities. It goes as follows:
1. Himself
2. A pretty face
3. The highest payer
Rank: Dag actively avoids any type of organized system, proffering to stick it out on his own without having to answer to a higher authority.
Appearance:
Image

Personality: Dag is a quickwitted and capable criminal. From street cons to heists, Dag has experience in breaking every law in Alliance space (and almost all of then in Coalition space). Although he has plenty of stories to share, Dag is best utilized as a smuggler or a hacker. Although he's not half bad as a pilot either.
Force Sensitive: No.
Skills/Powers: Growing up on Nar Shadda, Dags physical abilities are natural and essential to his survival. Quick on his feet, and quicker on the draw, Dag is a gunslinger by trade. His quick reflexes were honed over years working for a Hutt clan as a swoop bike racer. It was when he started racing that Dag learned how to lie, cheat, and scam his way to the top. The Hutt clans crew taught him engines, computers, and how to get in to almost anything without being noticed.
Weaponry: RSKF 44 Heavy Blaster Pistol (technically disney cannon so I can change if needed but it looks cool)
While not a weapon, Dag also has attatched rockets capable of providing limited flight to the inside of his stormtrooper uniform. He prefers them to a jetpack which he describes as "Having a massive explosive target on your back."
Ship: VCX-820 Escort Freighter
Biography: Dag Shae was born a slave to the Hutt clans on Nar shadda. Never knowing his blood family, Dag was raised by another slave named Raiden. Young himself, Raiden was in charge of teaching Dag from birth the criminal way. His first toy was a blaster cartridge, and at the age of 6 he could take the blaster apart and put it back together blindfolded. Within a week of learning his gun, Dag and Raiden were pulling street cons. In a year, they were hutt debt collectors. By the time he was 14, Dag and Raiden were ringleaders in high level hutt crimes. From vault heists too smuggling, Raiden and Dag were inseparable.

During a job on Coruscant during the end of Dags career with the Hutts, the job went awry when several force sensitive showed up hunting down an unknown object in the same vault as Raiden's crew. They tripped an alarm, and in the ensuing gunfight raiden was sliced across the face with a vibrosword losing his left eye, and had his face blasted with scaldingly hot steam burning the same side of this face horribly. It was at this point that Dag developed an intense hatred for all things forced related, exposing one of his Coalition alibis to get into the holding area and brutally execute the offenders.

Soon after, another job on Bespin was botched by an incompetent inside man who let his cover slip. A shootout followed, before only Dag and Raiden made it to the hangar. As they were boarding the ship, a precise blow cut Raiden's career short, leaving Dag as the only survivor of the battle. However, Raiden had been using one of Dag's alibis, and recognizing his opportunity, Raiden fled as far from the Hutt clan as be could get.

After the death of Raiden, Dag took his ship "The Lancer" and has worked as a small time smuggler and spy. He has lived in his ship since fleeing, and now runs small time smuggling jobs along with the occasional bounty hunting and working as a contact for many larger syndicates in need of some grunt work. Though he'll never admit it, Dag's "retirement" is a sham and he misses the action that comes with high risk high reward crime.
RP Example: I was involved in the last iteration of this as Raiden Sprax, but can provide examples if need be. I am currently working from a phone.

Name: Jek Ron
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Allegiance paid to: Mandalore and it's leader (The Hidden Sith)
Rank: Agent of Mandalore
Appearance:
Personality: Jek is a stereotypical Mandalorian, hungry for battle and brash despite this he is immensely loyal to his planet and his family. He is known for taking the time to remember his kills with trophies of armor which he hangs inside his home.
Force Sensitive: N
Skills/Powers: Jek is an expert marksman and a master melee fighter considered among the best on Mandalore. He is furthermore a skilled pilot primarily trained in the piloting of fighter craft from time served as a part of the small Mandalore defense fleet.
Weaponry: D-22 Blaster Rifle, DC-17 Blaster pistol, and a rare Mandalorian Darksaber*
Ship (If you have one): Lancer Class Pursuit spacecraft
Biography: Jek Ron was born on the year that the Coalition-Alliance War began and was given a comfortable childhood due to the king's careful maneuvering and was happy as any child would be with it until he met his Grandfather who was a Bounty Hunter in the war in the Fel Empire. His Grandfather, only known as Junn told the boy grand stories of the former glory of Mandalore and the military prowess their people were known for and, to his parent's anger, encouraged him to do the same. Jek was inspired by his words and despite his parent's words decided to go with his grandfather to learn the ways of the Mandalorians. He was brutally shown the ways of combat and ancient Mandalorian legend such as the Darksaber for multiple years ingraining the values and indoctrinating the glory of Mandalore into the boy's mind. The two then traveled into the Mandalorian wilderness and set up camp, the two went to sleep and when the 12-year-old woke up his grandfather was gone and he was alone in the wilderness with a few days of food.

Jek struggled immensely in the environment and began to resent his grandfather eroding the respect and admiration that had built over the years. He managed to survive and found the training that Junn gave him extremely useful especially when he came across a cave with a Mandalorian helmet inside. He went inside and found another piece of armor, and then another until he had acquired a full set of Mandalorian battle armor presumably given by Junn not quelling the resentment the boy now felt especially considering that he couldn't fit the armor, but he could use the blaster he found on the floor and the legendary Darksaber. When he left the cave he found his Grandfather Junn explaining how he had passed on his equipment to his grandson as his son wouldn't accept it only to be shot with the blaster by his rage-filled grandson. Jek was terrified of what he had done after he had fired the bolt and walked out of the wilderness shaken and changed.

He spent the latter half of his adolescent years under the Mandalore Defense fleet teaching him how to fly fighter class ships. In 195 a large frigate filled with lifeforms entered the planet's atmosphere and despite his apprehension to letting them land he was under orders by the Duke Travosh not to shoot down any refugee freighters in case they hed passengers who may drag the still neutral planet into the conflict. Their leader, a Ubanrimu had come to the planet and challenged the Duke causing him to flee and after hearing of her exploits in Hutt space Jek saw no issue allowing her to replace him as the Mandalore. He transferred to the military of Mandalore where his skills and ruthless duels focused at his rivals rapidly rose him up the ranks until he became an agent for the Mandalore loyally serving to the present.
RP Example: I already gave you one, so I should be good
Notes: *If you'd rather not have another saber in the RP even though it doesn't need the force I can change it to a vibrosword.

Provided that you change the Darksabre to a vibro-sword, this is accepted

I´ve changed it in the equipment section. It´s done (unless you want me to prune every mention of the Darksaber.

My apologies for the lack of activity, just moved so in porcess of getting internet at home. Hopefully it will be remedied today.

For those powers mentioned as being inherently dark side, I will be adding addendums to distinguish between powees which were learned in Fidem's past but are not utilized currently. Most of those Force Powers listed will be labeled as such or taken off completely.

This stated, could I ask for opinions on Fidem as he is so far?

The APP - Revised Edition
Name: Derek Krassus
Age: 90
Gender: Male
Allegiance paid to: coalition
Rank: Grand Admiral (self appointed)
Appearance (Picture preferred, if not, detailed description accepted): Think Clint Eastwood
Personality: Charismatic, ruthless, cunning, vengeful, but not without reason and humanity
Force Sensitive: (Y/N) No
Skills/Powers: (Please include Force abilities and light saber forms if applicable) a tactical and strategic genius, particularly in the realm of naval operations. He’s also politically adept and has developed a significant reputation as a military mastermind.
Weaponry: Carries a blaster pistol but relies on his personal guard for protection. He’s 90, not necessarily commando material.
Ship (If you have one): Ascension

The Ascension is Executor class star Super Star destroyer with several modifications. In the fashion of the Tector class, with the hangar bay minimized in order to accommodate enhanced/encreased shielding, armor, and armaments (additional turbolaser batteries, internal shield generator, additional armor, etc...). The relatively ancient systems that originally featured throughout the vessel have long since been replaced by modern platforms.

Krassus was born in 110 ABY on the planet of Kuat, his father being an employee of Kuat Drive Yards and his mother being a politician. As a child, Krassus was fascinated with the history of the Galactic Empire and the wonders of space. At the age of 18, he joined the Imperial Navy (Fel) as an officer. Graduating with top marks in his class at the naval academy, he showed a particular aptitude for capital ship centric warfare. While the New Republic had already transitioned to a lighter more flexible naval doctrine, the Fel Empire still had use for a man of Krassus’s talents.

His first assignment was onboard the ISD Remnant, as a gunnery officer. He served onboard the remnant for several years, earning several distinctions and promotions during that time. After 4 years, at the age of 24, he reached the rank of captain. This promotion was accompanied by his transfer to the Star Destroyer Relentless, which he served on for 5 years. It was as captain of the Relentless Krassus genuinely began to make his mark within the Fel Imperial Navy. His initial assignment was to conduct counter piracy operations along Fel trade and supply routes across the outer rim. Krassus conducted these operations with ruthless efficiency, eliminating countless pirate outfits and operations. His service in this capacity, however, came to an abrupt end when a vessel that Krassus had been tasked with escorting, alongside a considerable contingent of Fel warships, came under attack by Republic forces who possessed overwhelming force in the engagement. The flagship of the escort force, a Palleon class star destroyer, was destroyed early in the engagement, and the imperial forces were thrown into disarray. Krassus managed to rally the scattered imperial contingent and seize control of the situation at hand. He successfully coordinated the retreat of the force, enabling the escape of the VIP being escorted by serving as the convoys rear guard, buying the imperials the time they needed to jump to hyperspace. Shortly after their retreat, Krassus followed in suit, narrowly escaping with his life, while the Relentless suffered extensive damage. This “engagement” was considered a victory by the powers that be, and resulted in Krassus receiving a promotion, to rear admiral. As a rear admiral, Krassus was given the task of overseeing the Empire’s anti-piracy operations in the outer-rim, a testament to his success when he had carried out such operations in a direct manner onboard the Relentless, which had been repaired and retained by Krassus as his flagship. Krassus conducted his duties with considerable success and in two years time he had been promoted to vice admiral, within 2 more he was a full Admiral.

As an Vice Admiral, Krassus saw his responsibility’s shift to incorporate fleet actions against the enemies of the Fel Empire, namely the Alliance. A string of military victories against the Fel Empire’s rival and suddenly Krassus found himself an Admiral. In addition to full admiralty, Krassus also was able to secure a new flagship, one that suited his talents and ambitions better than any other. The Ascension, which was the last operational vessel of its class, at the time. An Executor Class Star Destroyer that served as much as a beacon of the past as it did a beacon of power.

Shortly after, however, the Fel Empress was assassinated, shattering the unity of the Empire. Krassus, using his newfound admiralty and the resources that it enabled him to requisition, threw his weight behind loyalist forces in the ongoing civil war, supporting the Fel line. It soon became apparent that such a position was futile, and within the year the leader of the faction that Krassus backed was killed. Upon their death, Krassus, who had become a central military figure within his chosen faction, splintered away along with those loyal to him, which amounted to a sizeable force. Seizing control over a few outer rim systems, Krassus became a warlord, which was not an uncommon path for capable military figures with the means after the instability had set in.

For a few years Krassus remained secluded to the outer rim, gathering strength and expanding, as former Imperials fled the civil war and sought new allegiance. His experience and position, as a well regarded military commander prior to the infighting, lent him credibility. The fact that he was somewhat removed from the bloodshed, which had only intensified after the alliance and Jedi had decided to intervene, also bolstered the attractiveness of Krassus’ operation in comparison to that of other potential options. Many a captain took his ship into the spheres of Krassus’ control, many a pilot would do the same.

In the year 148 ABY, Krassus gathered his forces and launched an invasion of the planet Eridau. The battle was over relatively quickly, with the faction of Fel remnants being in no position to fight off a coordinated, full scale assault. After a brief, but pitched battle, the planet capitulated. Many of the Fel remnants opted to be absorbed into Krassus’ growing faction, while others simply fled. Eridau immediately became the centerpiece of Krassus’ operation, with its resources and positioning providing him with an invaluable military and industrial asset.
The capture of Eridau marked his rise to notability, with his own faction being recognized as a major player in the Fel conflict.

For the next 6 years, Krassus endured the Alliance offensive against the Fel remnant territory, fortifying his hold on Eridau, fashioning the planet into an imperial stronghold, while maintaining his hold on his outer rim holdings. By 154 ABY, however, Krassus had lost control of most of the systems he once held, being confined to Eriadau and a few outer rim planets. The Fel remnants, however, had largely ceased the widespread infighting by this point to attempt to fight off the Alliance offensive, which had placed the Fel remnant on the brink of extinction. While not unified, they at least weren’t attempting to slaughter each other.

In 160 ABY, a new Alliance offensive besieged Fel territory, spearheaded and championed by the Jedi Order. The offensive was poorly executed and swiftly blunted by the Fel remnant, though it was during this offensive that Krassus suffered great personal loss and tragedy. This loss instilled a deep seated, pure hatred for the Jedi, one that would be a driving force in his actions of the future. Prior to the aforementioned tragedy, however, Krassus declared himself Grand Admiral, immersing himself in the defensive effort regarding Fel space. Much of the defensive credit regarding the defeat of the alliances offensive was attributed to Krassus, significantly enhancing his reputation across the galaxy.

A year following the Alliance’s failed offensive, the coalition took form. Krassus participated as a central figure in its founding, bringing a sizeable force into he fold, while also convincing many of the other factions amongst the Fel remnant to commit to such an alliance and accept the systems that wished to secede from the alliance. Within the coalition, Krassus was a central figure, though the de facto leader he was not.

A few years after the founding of the coalition, the war ended when a peace treaty was brokered. Krassus was present for and took part in the negotiations. He resisted the restriction of the coalition to the outer rim, relenting when pressure from both sides made it clear that it would move forward with or without him. With peace taking hold of the galaxy, Krassus used the flexibility it granted to solidify his position within the coalition. Retaining Fondor as the center of his own “operation” he once again looked to expand into the outer-rim, with his influence in such systems having been weakened during the war against the Alliance. Over the course of the decade of peace, he successfully asserted control of a number of outer rim systems. One such system was Kamino, a relatively obscure system with one redeeming quality. It possessed the most developed cloning technology and facilities in the galaxy, having been the center of the industry since the clone wars.

When the Alliance launched their preemptive strike in 173 ABY, Krassus commanded his forces against them in numerous engagements. The war, lasting 14 years, culminated in a stalemate and the subsequent peace treaty would provide Krassus with an opportunity he had long awaited, an opportunity for revenge. During the negotiations, Krassus pushed hard to outlaw and criminalize the Jedi order, using political and diplomatic means to weaponize the negative sentiment against the Jedi. When the treaty had been finalized and the Jedi made into fugitives, Krassus happily led the coalition portion of the attack on Telos IV, relishing in a chance to unleash his wrath on the order that had caused him so much pain.

In the years that followed, Krassus has spent his efforts in retaining and strengthening his position within the coalition. As a founding member, he has endured quite a few attempts to replace and/or eliminate him from the hierarchy. None have succeeded, with most of the offending rivals ending up dead, a few imprisoned, and even fewer managing to escape his retaliation. Recently, however, in the past few years, his outward influence towards outside of his own "fiefdom" has diminished. While still a major player, his position within Coalition politics has lessened to a noticeable degree and he has turned his focus inwards. There have been a few attempts to usurp his position, though just as past efforts had, these were fruitless and typically fatal for their participants.

Now, as the Carida concordat has come up for renegotiation, Krassus has dispatched a trusted representative to represent him in the negotiations, for while he is still not the coalitions leader, his opinion carries weight.

In Orbit Over Bastion, Capital of the Fel Empire


Death Squadron rushed out of hyperspace near Bastion. Jackson Valoran stood on the Bridge of the Leviathan, the final Executor Class Star Destroyer in Imperial Service, and watched as the view of Bastion rapidly expanded in his view. Valoran immediately reported his arrival to the planetary authorities, requesting an audience with the Emperor as soon as possible. "This is Rear Admiral Jackson Valoran, of the Imperial Navy. I am now approaching Bastion, in the Leviathan, with Death Squadron in tow and will be directly above the planet in a matter of minutes. Once planetary security has cleared me, I must speak with the Emperor as soon as possible. An urgent matter has arisen that requires his direct attention. I will remain on standby above the planet until further notice. Valoran out." After reporting to the authorities, Valoran checked the status of the Emperor's speech. Ever since Jackson had achieved a command aboard the Tyrannical, he had ensured his subordinates honored this day. Every year, on Empire day, Valoran ceased all non vital activity that he had the authority to halt and turned all attention to the Emperor's address. Despite the dire situation, it was no different this day. Jackson gave the order for all vessels under his command to turn the intercom systems to the Emperor's address. For a while, all was forgotten aboard 11 capital ships, as all attention turned to the Emperor's speech. The speech resonated through the vessels' corridors as the intercom blared with the Emperor's words. The men were inspired, an effect which this day never ceased to bring about. As the speech came to a close, the men and women who served the Emperor roared in unison. The roar was one of pride, for they were proud to serve such a glorious entity, that was the Empire. When the men aboardthe Leviathan had calmed, Valoran's voice boomed on the intercom, of every vessel in the squadron. "My Imperial brothers and sisters. I have served with many of you for years, while many others have joined us recently. For some, this is the first time you have heard the Emperor's voice while in service of the Empire. For others, it is the last time you will receive such a privilege. In trying times such as these, with Lithan's rebellion on the rise, the Empire must rally. It is the Emperor that has rallied us. Let his words serve as an inspiration to us, for he has imparted upon us the meaning of the Empire. It is larger than Palpatine, Vader, and himself. However, he is the champion of the Empire and we heed his words as if they were spoken from an entity greater than any man. For he is more than a man, he is the the heart of the Empire. You and I, my brothers and sisters, are the shield of the Empire. We protect the Empire from the threats that rally against it, and crush them with the Empire's righteous might. Let it be known, that when we are long forgotten, crumbled into dust, the Empire will still stand. Take pride in this, for the Empire is the true source of good throughout the galaxy, and you are it's protectors. Stand fast and hold steady in times of crisis, for only after such a time will the Empire rise to the challenge of a unifying the Galaxy and bringing peace and prosperity to it's people." When Valoran concluded his speech, "Long live the Empire!" was shouted in unison throughought the entirety of the squadron. Valoran was proud of being an Imperial, but his pride would need to be shelved for now. He had just received a summons from the Emperor and immediately took a shuttle to the planet. Upon arriving, he was ushered into the Emperor's presence. Upon reaching the Emperor, he dipped his head in a respective nod, for he had trouble maintaining balance with his leg, then followed with a salute. After the formalalities Valoran handed his cane to a stormtrooper, stood up straight, and began to speak. "I apologize for not following standard protocol and reporting this in over the long range communications, but I found that it would be better if I told you this in person. Admiral Griffith has taken the majority of his fleet and left to join Lithan. He deserted the Empire and went to the side of the traitors. He took 12 Palleon star destroyers and 4 Immobilizer interdictor cruisers, the only units not to desert the Empire, under his command were those of Death Squadron, which remains completely loyal to you my lord. I would have informed you over communications, but I don't know who can be trusted. I am yours to command, Emperor."

Notes: I know the Bio is a bit bland, and some personal details are a bit lacking, but I plan on addressing them over the RP. It also took a lot longer to piece together a bio that abided by the timeline than I thought.[/quote]

the first one is. Is it strictly already existing species or are customs alright. 2nd are pre-existing in lore non-alliance/coalition factions like the Corporate Sector Authority and Hutts playable or will they be non-player? and what are the restrictions on player ships?

Gender: Male
Allegiance: Bakura Free Union
Rank: Chancellor
Appearance:
    Standing at 4’5”, Stoche is not a tall or incredibly built. Skinny, his lithe frame is well-worn by a main degree of stress, his black hair having turned peppered over the years, his face marred by both scars and stress lines. Multiple scars are present in fact, four easily notable on his face, all from his participation in the 177 Revolution. Stoche prefers to wear the Bakuran Army uniform and cap when out in public, if not simple black suits.

A firm believer in Bakuran independence, to him service to the state is a prerequisite for his own respect. Loyal, the man is willing to put himself on the line to get his people out of tough situations, breaking pirate organizations for the attempted ransoming of even a singular Bakuran citizen. In simple terms, he thinks of every Bakuran as a member of his own family and, in a way, treats them as such.

    Stoche is undeniably skilled in the art of inspiration, perfecting his own method of posturing and speech in order to rally individuals to his own causes. In addition to this, the man is capable in logistical matters, able to see which projects require the most amount of backing and support and how much of that support should be given. Lastly, he is able to identify those about him as far as expertise, capabilities, and loyalty, and places those individuals in areas of power.
Weaponry: Skoi Arms M7 Slugthrower
Ship: Namana Star, WR-542 Shooting Star
Biography:
    Born on Bakura in 155 ABY, Stoche’s parents were both heavily involved in the repulsorlift industry as system administrators. Even then, the planet was independent as could be and only tangentially allied to the Alliance due to the various invasions, regimes, and wars that came and gone. A year prior to his birth, even, the vast majority of Imperial space had come under that same Alliance’s control and Bakura, despite being independent, was a signatory towards many an Imperial fleet’s surrender. Their treatment under the Galactic Empire had been good, compared to many other planetary systems, and those Imperials who remembered this fact came to Bakura seeking asylum. Bakura agreed. In the midst of Stoche’s youth, his parents fought in part against this. They attended rallies, being staunch loyalists to the Alliance regime that had once helped to repel the Ssi-ruuvi, spoke out against the integration and aid Bakura gave to these Imperials. They feared, too, Bakura becoming more like the old Empire, that they might one day go to war with the fleet that had been collected.

    In 161 ABY, when Stoche was just six years old, the Alliance failed in their final attempt to take Imperial worlds. Bakura was still neutral, feeling that the collection of Imperial worlds into the Coalition was something they did not want to touch. They had only just formed from the rubble and there was no telling whether or not the Coalition would actually survive being itself. A peace treaty was signed and kept, Bakura instead developing closer ties to the Alliance. Stoche would grow up in the midst of this time of peace, this time when former Imperials rallied against the alien ideologies and immigrations, rallied with Bakurans who felt much the same. The Alliance itself was pushing for Bakura to come into the Alliance fold, seeing their position as an independent power at that position a concern and a threat to the southern lines. Stoche’s parents became far more involved, far more vocal in their activities.

    Stoche would, like many children, find his parents’ thoughts distasteful by the simple fact that they were of his parents. He attended several events hosted by the Traditionalist Party, beginning a journey of his own. The preservation of Bakuran culture and independence, both economically and politically, rabidly became an issue close to his heart and he would act in multiple instances as one of the muscle at these events. Stoche would act like security, as one who stood in the line, and during that period he developed several strong friendships with former Stormtroopers, Naval Officers, and Imperial Army troopers. The Bakuran cultivated and was influenced by many of these individuals’ ideologies and histories, finding them to be useful, interesting, and personally inspiring. He was only seventeen.

    In 173 ABY, war would break out and Bakura’s government, under threat by both Alliance and Coalition forces for it’s independent status, rapidly allied itself with the Galactic Alliance in order to secure itself to invasion. Chancellor Hanlever stated that they must chose to aid those of democracy against the tyranny of the old Empire, that it was a fight to free those enslaved by the Coalition. The Bakuran government, in solidarity to this, provided warships to the Alliance fleet and began to crack down on the Traditionalist Party. Rallies were broken up, cited as being illegal, and members began to be arrested on charges many thought false. Stoche would be arrested in 175 ABY at an anti-war rally and sent to the Municipal Prison.

    He would spend six months there, writing his thoughts into a novella called simply Balance. This book drew inspiration from the faith of the Cosmic Balance, from the ideas of civil and national service in order to give back to the community, and advocated for independence on Bakura against foreign powers because only they who knew Bakura should govern it. The book was smuggled out on databead to Traditional sympathizers, those individuals spreading it to their own groups before the volume found itself in more common hands. Public readings of the book would be broken up, Balance being banned under Bakuran law. This only served to incite the general populace. They made petitions, but this only served to identify leaders who would be then arrested. The rest went underground, preparing for a significant moment in time. In 177 ABY, they found their chance. Coalition forces began to engage the Mid Rim, pouring through in a massive offensive. The Alliance could spare no reinforcements.

    The Traditionalist Party, under the new banner of the Bakura Free Union, revolted. The Municipal Prison was overrun with small arms groups engaging prison guards, smuggled weapons to prisoners creating a two front battle. Stoche himself would emerge from this revolution, which continued on to a short week-long siege against the Bakuran Senate, as the key leader of that Bakura Free Union. The Union immediately recalled it’s remaining ships, establishing a separate peace with the Coalition in 178 ABY. For the rest of the war, Bakura would be independent from the conflict and Stoche would continue to rebuild Bakura. In 187 ABY, after a decade in power, the Vulpter Armistice would be ratified and the Union would be one of the signatories to the treaty, fearing that being independent and not being a signatory would give casus belli to the other powers. Stoche himself signed that armistice.

    Since then, Stoche has continued to lead the Bakura Free Union as an independent power, becoming well known for his impassioned speeches, his ability to rally the masses to his cause.
RP Example:Notes:
Image
    Bakura Free Union
      General Description:
        An independent system, the Bakura Free Union is a democratic representative government which is overall governed by the Chancellor, the executor of all laws and head of the executive branch, the Bakuran Senate, a forty-person body which draws up all laws and regulations of Bakura, and the Judiciary, those judges and senior judges who interpret the laws made under the Senate. Bakura’s total population is 4 billion.
      Economy:
        The economy of Bakura is highly dependent on the exports of Namana-based products, such as liquor, fruit, and stimulants, a highly developed industry of Repulsorlift coils, and Strategic metals such as outer hull plating elements, metals utilized for inner shielding metals in solar ionization reactors. In addition to this, Bakura is a manufacturer of hyperdrive components and warships, aided in part by a heavy shipyard in orbit. In addition to this, slugthrowers are manufactured in a mass scale. Bakura imports medicinal supplies, such as Bacta, as well as a heavy degree of Tibanna gas.
      Military:
        The Bakuran Army is composed of a total 70 million and is armed with repulsorlift transports, armored personnel carriers, main battle tanks, dropships, and light rocket artillery. Infantry are mainly armed with slugthrower assault rifles, with grenadiers interspersed at the squad level that are further equipped with rifle grenades. Light machine guns are integrated at a platoon level. The Bakuran Army’s doctrine relies on rapid assault and envelopment, utilizing it’s dropships to maneuver forces into position and destroy enemy forces.

        The Bakuran Navy is composed around a core of seven Pellaeon-Class Star Destroyers, each of which is heavily modified with, in lieu of the majority of turbolaser and ion cannon batteries, a large complement of Titan-1 Class LRCM missiles. The vessels are also equipped with Trident Assault Drive units. In addition to this, three unmodified Ardent-Class Frigates and seven Nargi-Class Frigates.
      Foreign Ties:
        The Union continues to keep cordial relations with both the Galactic Alliance and the Coalition. Embassies by both galactic powers are maintained planetside, with heavily controlled trade existing between the Union and Alliance. Citizens within both the Galactic Alliance and Coalition can apply for citizenship, though this is again heavily regulated. Droids are not allowed whatsoever on Bakura.
    Bakuran Signatories to Vulpter Armistice:
      On Territory:
        Bakura agrees to expand under no circumstances into systems occupied by either the Galactic Alliance or Coalition. Stations under direct Bakuran control are allowed within the systems of Bespin, for the use of commercial movement, and Endor, for the use of immigration services. These stations are allowed weaponry no greater than that of a Cardan IV class station.
      On Jedi:
        Bakura will allow no formation of Jedi organizations, gatherings, or covens and will transfer any Jedi to the Galactic Alliance. Forces utilized for the retrieval of these Jedi are to be provided by the Galactic Alliance only; Bakuran forces are not utilized in this manner.
    Technology Stubs:
      Hyperwave Inertial Momentum Sustainer (HIMS)
        The HIMS technology utilized by the Bakuran Fleet in 18 ABY is continued to be in use under every major fleet combatant within the Bakuran Navy, though it has since been improved as to place less strain on the warship’s outer hull as well as to improve the distance at which the HIMS would continue to propel the warship in it’s bubble. In addition to this, the modern HIMS engages the hyperdrive automatically following the passing of the vessel through the interdiction field, allowing for warships to bypass hyperspace blockades.
      Trident Assault Drive
        The Trident Assault Drive is in reality a series of ten Class 10000 hyperdrive units utilized to provide a stationary cloaking capacity to any warship. Able to be easily and rapidly charged, the drive can be sustained for periods up to several months, enabling long term ambush tactics against enemy forces. As each hyperdrive gradually loses power and controllability due to the length of active operation, another is activated in order to continue the stationing of the vessel in hyperspace.
      Titan-1 LRCM
        The Titan-1 is a long range missile measuring 15 m in length and 2.11 m in diameter, designed to engage and destroy enemy capital ships. With a baradium charge payload, they are capable of punching holes through both the shields and hull of MC90 Star Cruiser. Sublight drives enable the missile to accelerate at 7,000 G while eight maneuvering thrusters allow the Titan-1 to avoid most countermeasures and point defense lasers. The entire missile is guided by a droid computer which utilizes numerous on-board sensors to guide the missile to it’s target.
      Skoi Arms Mk 2 CIWS
        With four rotary laser cannons attached to a central turret, the Mk 2’s onboard sensor array enables it to engage targets with four streams of 6,000 shots per minute. These CIWS arrays are capable of being mounted on most vessels, requiring only a well to insert it’s under-deck components and a good enough power source to power the weapons system. The Mk 2 is directed via controller inputs to batteries.
      SAF-4 Starfighter
        The SAF-4 is the main starfighter of the Bakuran Navy, offering a strong competitor to both the CF9 Crossfire and the Predator-class. With high speed, a strong shielding array, and a Class 0.8 hyperdrive, slightly faster than the CF9 Crossfire, the SAF-4 is capable of taking heavy fire and continuing to engage the enemy. More comparable to a bomber or gunship due to it’s relatively low maneuverability, the starfighter is more at home in engaging enemy starfighters at range than in a dogfight situation. With her interior weapons bay, the vessel is able to carry multiple missile launchers and their associated ammunition racks as well as a rigidly-mounted Skoi Arms Mk 2 CIWS on the lower hull.
