Armania, a world torn by war through the centuries. Cut off from the rest of the Galaxy by choice thousands of years ago, the Armanian people have lived a sheltered existence. Forgetting about the Galaxy as a whole, dividing into clans fighting for domination of the planet and her resources. That all changed in the 2109th Year after the Great Divide, space travel had just begun once again with exploration of the planets in the solar system. The discovery that their moon was habitable, and the research of their own solar system. It wasn't long until what was once a long range Antenna in a museum in the capital city of Relti was reactivated upon detecting an inbound fleet.

A fleet belonging to the Separatist Alliance. With the fact that Armania was off the grid so to speak the tacitcal droid in charge of the operation was given orders to immediately occupy and go to work constructing mines on the resource rich moon and planet, without consideration for it's people. Armanians were put to work if they resisted, their infrastructure taken over and their entire planet was taken over by the Separatist Alliance. A common enemy was all the Armanians needed to unite, the clans coming together and forming the Rhiad - A council of the most influential families and individuals to rule the planet. They mounted a resistance and though the Amranian people were technologically inferior they managed to mount a reasonable defense. Many of them securing themselves in the new joint capital of Relti.

Within a year the Empire came and wiped out the Separatist Forces, the regional Moff recognising the wealth of materials on the planet moved in with the intent of 'supporting Armania and bringing it up to a Galactic Modern standard, while providing support and security to the Armanian people'. They brought in the Mining Guild to add 'Efficiency, safety and professional standards' to the mines that had unlocked precious minerals on Armania and it's moon, Meroona. They worked slow, slowly increasing their grip on the planet. Initially they only made decisions relating to their own operations, however occasionally they would make decisions that should belong to the Rhiad. Rumours began to spread of people disappearing from Armanian prisons, and word was that they were pressed into service by the Empire. Slaves.



OOC Information


Welcome to Star Wars - Liberation! This Roleplay takes place on a planet of my own creation: Armania. Armania is a planet that is inhabited by humans who moved to the planets thousands of years ago, during The Old Republic. They dismantled their vessels and turned them into their first citys, forgetting about the outside Galaxy. Over time clans formed, and they fought amongst themselves for superiority and control. Technology didn't advance, nor did the Armanian people rely on it. Droids were kept for the rich and powerful, rather than replacing the working class. Weapons ranged from old blasters to slugshooters.

The most important historical event prior to the CIS Occupation was during the Great Divide, a war where the Alaxians and Githan Clans united the other minor clans into North and South in a collosal war that spanned one hundred years. No clear winner was declared and an uneasy peace continued for many years. The CIS Occupation changed everything, and the two sides moved on to their new enemy who ravaged the planet, till the Empire came and replaced it, it's been three years of Imperial Rule.

We will be playing characters who, for some reason or another, were captured by the Empire and forced into slavery. Unsure on where they are, all they know is that they want escape.

If you have questions, please check the FAQ at the bottom of this post first.





Planetary Location













Clans


I intend to get a brief history of each clan up tomorrow. Though for the sake of people wanting an OOC and wanting to do their sheets. I'm posting these as is.










Rules


1. While I am open to Input, like many RP's GMs word is law.
2. No killing off other player characters/Important NPCs with just one hit. Discussion needs to happen OOC and agreements need to be made that said...
3. If you do something incredibly stupid, such as putting your character right in the way of a turbolaster blast. They're probably going to die, while I want to avoid having anyones chars/npcs die when they don't want them too, try to act logically with them to preserve their life.
4. Please keep interactions realistic when imprisoned. You are a prisoner.
5. No Metagaming/Powergaming.
6. This Roleplay is going to contain some slightly more mature themes, blood, gore and swearing is allowed however should be kept tasteful (no doing it just for the sake of doing it). Anything in regards to what you are doing to that alien hooker, we don't need to know.
7. In your character history mention some form of dealing with a Lonely Long walk one Night.
8. Initial Maximum of Two PCs per player, further can be discussed after at least four good quality posts in two weeks.
9. Respect eachother.
10. Have fun.




Character Sheet


I will be strict on Character Sheets. Do not take judgement as 'You cannot apply'. Take it as 'I want to make sure you're doing the best you can, for me and other players.'

So to anyone interested, I'm going to try something different as a GM in this game. I am not making a Protagonist, I will assist with NPCs where necessary however I'm taking a step back, to make sure that this game is driven by your actions and not mine.

Name: Colin Cooper

Species: Human

Age: 18

Appearance:


Reason for Imprisonment: Alleged possession and use of drugs; Colin continues to protest innocence and medical diagnostics have shown that he is clean, but the relevant doctor did not appear at Colin's trial; another doctor who had a different, probably faked set of medical reports was at the witness stand instead. Not helping is the fact that judicial system in Armania moves really slow and the real culprit is rich and well-connected enough to keep the wheels of justice turning in his favor.

Equipment: The clothes on his back and whatever mining equipment that his overseers see fit to entrust him.

Skills: Colin is an engineering student with a minor in architecture; in practical terms, this means that he can see the weak and strong points of a structure or machine, operate basic equipment, and know some programming skills. He also knows droidspeak. Other skills are singing and sketching, the latter for both practical (blueprints and schematics) and artistic reasons. And of course, he can - theoretically - repurpose mining equipment into weapons and disable mechanical/electronic safeguards against revolt.

Weaknesses: Colin is naive, physically weak, and despite having lived through the Seperatist occupation, sheltered from the worst aspects of the world. Therefore, being imprisoned and enslaved is a shock to him, having to endure hard and brutal conditions, even more so. Not merely that, but he is naturally submissive, so it takes someone else to plant the seed of revolt in him. And finally, he is afraid of fire and high temperatures, of being burnt alive; he does not like the idea that Human flesh cooks just as well as that of animals.

History: Colin was born to an upper-middle-class family within Erion Clan. Raised in an atmosphere of optimistic privilege, the boy was meek but showed promise in his studies. Bullied in school at an early age because of his small and thin build, he had to rely on his elder sister, Lisa, to protect him; she did so using her loud voice to shout down those who used insults and teasing while reporting to the teachers those who resorted to physical violence. This had the effect of both ensuring a peaceful and happy childhood for Colin and causing him to grow 'soft'.

Nevertheless, the optimistic life continued and Colin decided to try and get into a University run by the Alaxian Clan, which still exceeded the Erion clan in the creation and use of 'practical' technology. This was hard because the Clans were in a state of cold war with each other then. However, the Clan member who controlled said University was open to intelligent and scientific minds from all Clans (some speculated that he was merely trying to poach them for his own group) and accepted Colin when the latter aced his entrance exams.

Then came the Seperatist occupation; during which the University Facilities were put to work repairing droids and basic low-priority communications technology in exchange for being left relatively untouched. Colin learned a lot about Seperatist technology from helping maintain droids and basic radios, and even learn modern droidspeak. But despite that, Colin knew that the Seperatists were an occupying force and he was only helping them for his family's sake; while he avoided being treated cruelly, he knew that that was only because he was needed. Droids were cold and unfeeling, and the slightest misstep was the difference between comfort and pain; he hated it.

And when the Empire finally came and restored things to normal, Colin was one of the first to welcome them, confident that he can go on leave from the University at last; to his parents and sister, who had grown into a great beauty. And for a while, all was happy.

Then, said sister got a boyfriend, a rich nobleman who was one of the sons of the Clan Ylarn head. This would have been a moment of joy, and their parents clearly treated it as such due to the opportunity to form an alliance with an up-and-coming power. But Colin quickly noticed that the rich noble was abusive and unfaithful and that his sister cannot just shout him down because then she would be punished by her family and even clan.

Even worse, it turned out that his sister's boyfriend wanted to cheat on her with Colin himself, due to the latter's good looks. Colin refused, and in a moment of defiance, he threatened to use every means he could to persuade his sister to leave him; the two can just defect to Clan Alaxian if the noble tried to make life in Clan Erion unbearable. In response, the rich young man said:

"Enjoy one last long lonely night under the stars, then," before turning to go. Sure enough, one starry night later, Campus Police arrested Colin when the latter tried to go back to the University to pursue a new course in 'Modern Galactic Tech' and ask for the Headmaster's help in his upcoming defection. A local form of Spice had been found in his toolbox, hidden in a small tube; enough grounds for an arrest. Colin protested his innocence; his Headmaster and the campus doctors stood with him but Clans Ylarn and Erion purposefully had Clan Alaxian's head exclude them from the trial.

And with that, the young man was imprisoned in one of Armania's prisons...on his eighteenth birthday, to boot.
