SCUM AND VILLAINY
A Lawless Galaxy!
With the fall of the tyrannical EMPIRE comes a new struggle, and as the heroic NEW REPUBLIC struggles to fill a power vacuum left behind, the Outer Rim is divided! Disgraced Imperial Warlords vie for control as Bounty Hunters and Smugglers work with little interference. These scum of the galaxy plague the Outer Rim, robbing and killing as they see fit. A group of these scourges look to make a name for themselves, and take up a dangerous job to do so, but they face the rising NEW REPUBLIC, villainous Imperial Warlords, and Bounty Hunters who seek to turn them in for credits. With such obstacles, will our "heroes" be able to rise? Only time will tell...
This roleplay takes place after Return of the Jedi, centering in the Outer Rim. It's heavily inspired by the Disney+ series The Mandalorian, but it takes place before, and there won't be any connections between the two plots. Anyways, the basic plot is as follows:
Diwnam the Hutt is a greedy crook who has succeeded Jabba's reign. He took over via force, finding his opportunity in the chaos that followed Jabba's murder. The many members of Jabba's Cartel had been desperate for a leader, and Diwnam removed all candidates other than himself. Once the Empire fell, the Cartels were the strongest forces in the galaxy. Diwnam and his criminals were able to beat out most of the other Cartels, growing in power and popularity as he did. And with this newfound power came wealth. Diwnam attacked the remnants of the Empire, striking at weaker warlords, taking their resources and weapons for himself. However, one day Diwnam decided he was tired of the smaller fish. Jillana Avamarc was a prominent Imperial officer whose forces grew with the Empire's fall, and with the leftover resources she acquired, she had a target on her back.
Once Diwnam attacked her compound and robbed her of her cargo, he was baffled by the value of what he had stolen. He had expected wealth, but what he found exceeded his wildest dreams: kyber crystals. These crystals were able to power the most dangerous weapons imaginable, and Officer Avamarc was broken when she lost them. While the Empire had often viewed bounty hunters as the worst of the worst, Avamarc could no longer afford to see things that way. She sent out a cry for help, promising copious amounts of credits for whoever could assist her in obtaining her stolen cargo. That's where our "heroes" come in. Currently, they're locked up in a New Republic prison for various abhorrent crimes. But when they heard news of the job, they found each other, and their peculiar skills. And a team like that? They might just be able to make a name for themselves.
