Due to the complexity of this, regretfully a Character sheet needs to be made using the Character Sheet template. Some sections have blank space to customise to your needs for history, appearance descriptions, adding pictures.

Do note, a bit of spreadsheet knowledge does help, and you'll need to make a copy of the document for yourself.

What came before.:
400 Years prior to the Clone Wars the Sith struck directly on Coruscant by hyperspace ramming a ship into the Jedi Temple.
Force Users were banished from the Republic. Their very existence made a crime and everything that had gone wrong for thousands of years laid at their feet.

Over the centuries Force users remained hunted, trapped, killed, bought and sold like (and sometimes as) slaves to whoever had the credits.

Over time the Clone Wars came to happen again, almost exactly as it would have to begin with thanks to the ministrations and guidance of an organisation that called itself the Architects, though even now neither side is fully aware of the extent of influence the Architects had, but now they are seemingly gone. Driven underground by events.

The events largely being that finally the Sith and Jedi were starting to return vaguely to public perception. Rumours, stories and half-believed tales of their return were subject of much talk. Fewer still realise that they have returned in truth and are no longer fleeing and hiding from the galaxy but have begun taking it in hand an enacting their own will on it, turning events and vast resources to the control of their own means, for the Jedi largely for good, though not as prudish and out of touch as they would once have been, and for the Sith, mostly for themselves as usual.

But they're not alone, a few forceless folk with vast ambition have begun turning their own eyes on carving out their own piece of the universe. Men and women of no allegiance but their own. Men and women who seek money, power, influence or simply a good time.

The CIS and Republic are losing their grips on the galaxy as the web of loyalties begins to come undone and many choose their own loyalties and have begun to carve pieces for themselves. And yet the Architects. Buried and hiding frown at the turn of events. For there was much worse to come, and yet none of those squabbling over the scraps could see it.

Now.:
It has been a year and the Clone Wars rage on harder than ever. Worlds change hands with increasing frequency and the gears of war are turning faster and harder than ever, hundreds of worlds are sites of near planetwide warfare.

In the Republic;
Military Spending is reaching a new high and the military grows daily, there are massive numbers of clones in battle and technological development is changing, Venators are becoming Obsolescent as the new Republic Class Star Destroyers are being rolled out in large numbers. It is even rumoured that the Republic is working on a large multi-kilometre long vessel packing some truly frightening firepower.

Additionally the Republic is now recruiting normal men and women to fight, these 'home defence' units are growing in number and freeing clones from garrison duty for the front. But such measures haven't been without consequence as Separatist Sympathisers join up and then conduct sabotage or even terrorism from within, the worst of which was the poisoning of a large shipment of Bacta intended for the front lines killing nearly twenty thousand clones, while few of the deaths were directly related to the poisoning, most of the deaths came about because of the shortage of bacta that destroying the shipment left the front lines in.

Politically the Landscape has changed as well. Despite Valorum's brave leadership the tired Chancellor retired from his position, and politics, succeeded by Shayla Paige-Tarkin. An adamant supporter of the war and, with her rising to Chancellorship, signalled the rise of the Militancy Faction within the Senate. Those senators more favourably persuaded towards the war to reclaim seperatist space recieved more and more concessions and favourable results for the issues they presented. Meanwhile the more passive and pacifist elements began to be pushed out. And those senators for worlds contested by the CIS, unless staunch followers of the war, were pushed out entirely or even arrested as traitors against the Republic.

The people of the Republic are growing more and more frightened by the wars continuing, and escalation and with good reason. Security is cracking down across the republic and it is taking those they might have called allies once with it.

In the CIS:
The CIS has been fighting to match military spending with the Republic with a little more ease than the Republic has, its firm ties to some of the strongest trade branches giving them more money and resources to throw at problems than had ever been seen before. Millions upon Millions of Droids are rolled out to join the war and fleets of ships are growing.

Lesser craft like the Hardcells have long been phased out of the CIS's military arsenal in favour of new classes of vessel to fill the same lesser roles. But Grievous's massive influence over the CIS military has concentrated less on smaller ships and more on large capital ships with expansive hangar bays. The Subjugator class Dreadnoughts now forming an 'essential' part of the Confederacy's "Wolf Packs"

Grievous has also been growing dissatisfied with the performance of Battle Droids, their lack of real instinct, intuition and the like have given Grievous the excuses he needed to also begin recruiting from the civil populace, though he'd always favoured Kaleesh for his own guards. But recently he has opened up the Confederacy Military to flesh and blood troops.

Unfortunately for the Republic, the CIS Political Landscape has remained somewhat more stable, Mina Bonteri has retained her Chancellorship and an increasing number of disaffected worlds have been defecting to the Confederacy, their fears at an increasingly militant and hard-line republic forcing their hands. And so while many worlds have changed hands militarily, more than a few worlds have been changing hands politicially.

The people of the CIS are staunchly loyal and desperate to fight for their freedoms while those of the Republic have grown disaffected with the war, while security is tight across the CIS there has been no rash of terrorism and sabotage to stain the public perception of the war, while some events have certainly happened, those republic loyalists in CIS space tend to look down on the idea of sabotage and terrorism instead opting for peaceful protests which largely go ignored.

In the Syndicate:
War is good for business. This is a universal truth that any within or connected to the Syndicate would tell you. And this one more than most, since the beginning of the War the Syndicates power and influence has multiplied a thousandfold. Few criminal organisations remain that do not at least pay dues to the Syndicate.

And it's ability to project its force has also grown, people whisper of shadow-fleets beyond the trade lanes moving in secret to the orders of men masked in shadow. The truth being far worse. The Syndicates shadow fleets moving in the open where all can see disguised as trade ships often trading liveries and transponder codes as they cross the red line from Republic to CIS territory and back.

The Hutts remaqin a prime power in the Syndicate though Zann has overshadowed them with his domination of the inner core's more profitable criminal empires. Zann has also by a vote of the Syndicate's inner councils, been chosen to represent its military might, while not as powerful as the CIS or Republic by massive margins, the rag-tag fleet of the Syndicate can make more than a mess of anyone who justifies its use.

Politically, in an unexpected turn, the Syndicate mostly leans on its powerful victims of blackmail to prevent any concerted investigation or action, or in a couple cases, has arranged for them to be ambushed by the opposing side.

Those in the Syndicate remain staunchly loyal to it, the rewards for loyalty are great and the price of betrayal far far too high for comfort. Indeed, the benefits for membership have long been a much higher margin of safety for their activities and more likely to escape 'justice' should he be caught out. But those criminals who remain outside the Syndicate are massively resentful of the organisation and have a great deal of fear of them. The more successful find themselves driven out by Syndicate Enforcers, the less successful find themselves thrown under the proverbial bus to cover up Syndicate work gone wrong.

In other Space:
Mandalore has maintained its independence from the CIS and Republic, sometimes by force, and many other worlds, a thousand or so all told, managing to claim their independence from their example including worlds like Mon Calamari, and more importantly, Thyferra. Thyferra noticing the trend has withdrawn itself from the Republic, and while it continues to supply them, refuses to be drawn into the war and supplies the CIS as well, above Thyferra both the CIS and Republic have a permanent fleet stationed to 'ensure' the independence of the planet. Thyferra, not intimidated in the least, has secure the services of the Mandalorian Fett clan to protect its interests under the public threat that if the CIS or Republic tried to force their hand that they would receive no more Thyferran Bacta for all time.

As worlds go independent so to other smaller communities. Indeed, several small planetoids and moons have gone over to independent control through various circumstances. But without a clear and present threat from them the CIS and Republic have found their hands tied in the matter.

One of the most inexplicable events was a two month long truce during which the CIS and Republic seemingly went on a hunt for an organisation referred to as the Architects. This brutal hunt caused unrest in large areas of space who saw it as a witch-hunt for political enemies of both sides. It came to a head when the Republic and CIS co-operated to destroy a large vessel that the news revealed had escaped Anaxes in battle. But as the craft was destroyed General Grievous took the chance to get in his blows on Tarkin's command ship. Though both escaped, any hope of peace the mutual truce had created was dashed.

Hutt Space, thanks to the Syndicate, has also managed to remain theoretically neutral in the war. Though it is said that for the right price that Hutts of Lower Influence have extorted... I mean allowed... CIS and Republic supply convoys through their space.

Name: Zabra Anarft
Appearance:

History:
Zabra was orphaned early in her life on the bustling planet of Corellia. Left by her mother after only a few months together, she was raised by the staff of the orphanage which she was left for the first four years of her life. Her adoption came soon after her fourth birthday, a man by the name of Wendolo having come to the establishment in search of a child to call his own. The old man was a widower whom had lost his wife years before, their marriage never producing any children. Despite his human heritage, the man was very adamant about adopting the young Zabra. After the proper paperworks and background check had gone through, the man left with his newly found daughter.

The young Cathar's life with Wendolo was comfortable. He was wealthy enough to afford a large house on the densely populated planet and several luxuries to keep himself and Zabra with nary a need. But as good as a father the man would've made, he did not adopt the girl out of need for a family. He had so adamantly pursued her because he had sensed her latent force potential. A Jedi in secret, Wendolo had never passed down his wisdom to any others over the course of his life. Very rarely had he run into force sensitives, so the chance to take in and raise this girl as his Padawan before time took him from the world was something he sprung at. The long path of a Jedi began for her, the tenets of an order long lost to time drilled into her as she grew.

After years of training, Zabra's skills reached the point of knighthood. Her master's heal fading with time, she resisted his wishes to leave him and explore the galaxy in search of knowledge he could not pass to her himself, for allies he never bothered to look for, for others like them to pass the ways of the order onto. Instead she stayed with him until the day he joined the force as a result of his advanced age. His wealth had withered with him, the inheritance the Jedi thrived off for most of his life nearly all spent. He left Zabra with his loyal droid protector and a ship he commissioned from the Corellian Shipyards with the last of his coinage. Now alone for the first time since her earliest memories, the fresh Jedi set out to explore the stars in a galaxy embroiled in warfare.

Lieutenant Name: XN-037
Lieutenant Appearance:
Lieutenant History: XN-037 once belonged to Zabra's master, Wendolo, who had received the broken down droid as a payment long ago. The droid hadn't even been operation when Wendolo received it but with the help of a mechanic friend the two rebuilt the droid and returned it to an operational state. The droid served as a faithful protector to both the Jedi and his young Padawan until Wendolo's life came to an end. The droid's loyalty then shifted to Zabra, acting as her bodyguard and personal escort.
