I. Intro
You are part of a new generation. Twenty-six years after the Battle of Endor, you and the rest of the galaxy live in peace, prosperity, and freedom as the heroism of the Rebellion against the evil Galactic Empire fades into myth. Some of you even argue that there is no need for a Galactic-scale Government anymore; others say that the Empire wasn't so bad. But all that is in the past now; you just have to enjoy what the previous generation of heroes has given you. That is what they would have wanted, right?
Well, prepare for a rude awakening. For you live in ease and excess because of the sacrifices made by heroes who are growing older and older, and the structure they built to maintain your freedom and prosperity is falling apart. Poorer worlds are suffering 'the evils of absence and neglect', while the richer ones wish to regain the perks they had under the Old Empire. While you stewed in apathy, the house the epic men and women of old have built for your generation is falling apart. And now, there is no choice but to open your eyes.
On the planet of Birren lies one of the darkest secrets of the Galaxy; the secret of Senator Leia Organa's true parentage. Unlike in another universe, this secret is yet unrevealed, and the populace of the Galaxy will not easily forgive the daugther of Darth Vader should it be revealed. And the secret is about to come to light, as the evidence leading to it is possessed by a secret agent of the vile First Order; the remnants of the Imperial Fleet who had fled into the Unknown Regions after the final fall of the Galactic Empire. The First Order is about to return to the known Galaxy, using conspirators among the rich and powerful to pave their way back to supremacy. They must be stopped; the sacrifices of the Rebellion must not be undone.
A figure has visited your dreams, calling you to Birren. Said figure has been instructing you through dreams and visions in the arts of stealth, infiltration, theft, and escape. This figure has woken you up to how the Galaxy is about to collapse into pieces in a few years...unless you can stop it.
Go to Birren. Steal the evidence of Princess Leia's parentage and prevent it from being exposed. Change the Future.
Or all will be lost...

Welcome. Basically, this is an RP set in the Star Wars New Canon, six years before The Force Awakens. You are young people between 16 - 24 who have been visited in your dreams by 'The Phantom Thief', a mysterious figure who claims to have entered your dreams with The Force. You have been chosen because despite your being raised 'soft', you have skills in technology, physical abilities, and a godo heart underneath your...privileged exterior. Basically, you are good and kind people, if a little mischeivious. But now, said 'Phantom Thief' has enlightened you to the fact that your lives of happiness will fall apart in a few years unless you do something, and that something has to be soon.

II. State of the New Republic
At present, the Galactic Senate is divided between the POPULISTS, a diverse group of Senators who believe that individual planets should retain almost all power, and the CENTRISTS, who favor a stronger galactic government and a more powerful military. The Populists are principled and idealistic, but also unwilling to countenance that they are leaving worlds to neglect and decay, as well as predations by unlawful elements. The Centrists, meanwhile...are secretly controlled by the First Order, the remnants of the Imperial Navy who had fled to the Unknown Regions. In short, one faction believes in doing nothing, the other is a pawn by sinister forces.
Most of the Galaxy, however, lives in a haze of freedom and stability, with sporting events, festivals, art and culture flourishing as it never had in the Empire. But this freedom and stability is beginning to fade from poorer worlds, where pirates and organized crime had made a reapperance after the decline of the Hutt Cartel. The New Republic, thanks to its political deadlock, does nothing about this, and has begun leaking credibility in some sections of society. However, there is hope; the Centrists, in overreach, have voted for the abolition of the title 'Chancellor', and its replacement with the office of the 'First Senator', a leader with 'real powers over economic and military matters'.
Why is this hopeful, one may ask? Because the Populists answered by nominating Senator Leia Organa, war heroine, as their candidate for First Senator. With her at the helm, the New Republic can be saved and its troubles solved! If her secret isn't revealed, that is...
