Here's some lore. Also added this to Databank.
- Brimstone Battalion (~800 beings): Made up of experienced veterans, defectors and mercenaries, this unit is main assault force of the Scarlet Moons. They are also the only unit with a hovertank company. In addition, Brimstone soldiers have access to heavy weaponry and standardized uniform. Many beings in this battalion are Kaleesh warriors. Colonel Stormcaller himself is the commander.
- Sunburst Battalion (~500 beings): The reserve unit, troops in this battalion are often fresh recruits and not familiar with frontline combat. A typical recruit is given a week of holovid and sim-pod instructions before inducted into a squad, and some have to buy their own gear. In battle, Sunburst is normally deployed to guard the Brimstone's flank. Major Thiena Thel is the battalion commander.
- Prisma Battalion (~500 beings): This is the Scarlet Moons' specialist unit. Communication, engineering, intelligence and logistics are their main tasks. Its members have little combat experience, but have in-demand technical skills. Most Humans are assigned to this unit, as non-Human members do not trust them in combat. Major Yunus Dimet, a human (to his subordinate's hatred), is the commander.
- Sweet Revenge (Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser): The largest vessel of Scarlet Moons, their flagship and Brimstone Battalion's mobile base. Much of its original systems have been updated to increase automation and reduce crew requirement. It carries five V-wings, two U-wings, two VAAT/e and a hovertank barge.
- Palpatine's Bane (Free Virgillia-class bunkerbuster prototype): Captured from a Rebel shipyard right before the Battle of Yavin, this experimental starship brings heavy firepower against capital ships and stationary targets. Two Y-wings are attached to this ship. Also known as Palp-B.
- Evergreen (Nebulon-B Frigate): Ordered by Dynamic Automata as slave transport and captured by Scarlet Moons in 4 BBY; it's now the mobile base of Sunburst Battalion. Its starfighter hangars have been converted to barracks, though the ship still carries two Katarn-class and two Grek-class shuttles.
- First to Fight (Diamond-class cruiser): The only ship left from Colonel Stormcaller's CIS unit. It is modified for organic personnel instead of its original droid complements, and serves as the mobile base of Prisma Battalion. It carries four Sheathipede shuttles.
- Mad Anooba (Interceptor Frigate): Formerly of the Void Wing pirates and retained by those that joined the Scarlet Moons. It carries two Weequay saucer crafts and two Y-wings.
- The Scarlet Moons also has four additional Y-wings that rotate with those attached to capital ships.

NPC time! Meet your superior officers:
Though Stormcaller isn't his real name, he's known as such for as long as people remember (some say it's a title he acquired from a fallen foe). Stormcaller believes core world species are greedy and exploitative by nature. He joined the Separatists at the onset of the Clone Wars, following the examples of General Grevious (whom he still reveres as a god-hero). He led a unit of mostly organic privateers until the CIS' defeat. This unit held out because it was unaffected the master droid shutdown, and it eventually became Scarlet Moons. Stormcaller resists the empire as his way of taking down the big guy, and helping the little guys by distributing loot to backwater worlds.
One of the very few Humans in SM; he grew up on Alderaan and enlisted as a stormtrooper. In 2 BBY, Sergeant Dimet was selected for the deathtrooper program, but washed out because he was nearly crippled during physical augmentation. As a result, he was sent to a remote outpost, unaware of the destruction of his homeworld until Scarlet Moons raided that outpost and took him prisoner. He pledged his allegiance to Stormcaller, and is invaluable as the insider on Imperial tactics, despite hatred from non-Human comrades. He commands the Prisma Battalion, and is in charge of intelligence.
Captain of Scarlet Moons' flagship, Sweet Revenge; she is responsible for navigations and coordinating transportation. Gun Chuqu's career started Trade Federation naval cadet, which turned out for the worse when Cato Neimoidia scapegoated her as a separatist "traitor". Since joining Scarlet Moons, Gun Chuqu had become more paranoid over time. She is rarely seen outside of her quarters and the bridge, and prefers to communicate with holo-messages.
Scarlet Moons' chief surgeon; she exemplifies their anti-human sentiments. As a barren female, Dveerah was trained as a midwife to her hive queen, and was known for her soothing songs. Dynamic Automata enslaved Dveerah and her hive a decade ago. While others in Dveerah's hive all died from hard labor or dangerous experiments, she was kept around as Elta Besk's singing pet. Freed by Scarlet Moons in 4 BBY, Dveerah couldn't pass the chance for payback. She is respected for her medical knowledge and feared for brutal interrogation methods.
Dark-furred and over two meters tall, Blackjack uses a translator to speak Basic, like other Gigorans. He's an Ord Thoden born glass worker turned criminal. Now, he's one of Scarlet Moons' top snipers, and the most senior non-commissioned officer. Besides sniping, Blackjack enjoys looting. Personality-wise, Blackjack is very relaxed. He harbors no ill will toward any species or factions; he just wants to take their stuff.
Head of procurement; he obtained much needed supplies thanks to his black market connections. Perdz was named Red-Eye due to an iris defect that makes it hard for him to focus on moving objects (rendering him useless in combat). When Perdz met Stormcaller on Kalee, he was a spice dealer running from the vengeful kingpin Baploe Scober. He joined Scarlet Moons to attune for his misdeeds.
She is the Void Wing pirates' leader after Oni'antae's death. Her crew merged with SM recently, though they retain their own chain of command. The Void Wings provides much needed starships and starfighters. Myraim and her pirates are the opposite of Colonel Stormcaller; they are opportunistic, cowardly and self-serving to the extreme.

Name 198cm | 87kg | 22 | Trandoshan |
Profile
Appearance
Background
Outlook and Motivation
Cragdor is a pale and somewhat skinny Trandoshan. Many of his scales, particularly around his eyes and mouth, are either ragged or missing all together, giving him a constant sneer. The three digit claw on his right hand are stubby and malformed, having not properly developed in embryo. He is tall, but lacks the powerful musculature commonly associated with his people, giving him a more lean, athletic look.
He typically wears a gray environmental suit, similar to that of the notorious hunter Bossk, in order to keep comfortable in extreme temperatures. Cragdor also likes to wear a padded flight jacket over his suit, partially for warmth, but also to make himself look larger than he actually is.

Background
Cragdor was hatched on Dosha, the homeworld of his people, a few months after the conclusion of the Clone Wars. At some point during incubation, his egg was knocked from it's nest and cracked, causing his gestation be to severely impacted. Most noticeably was his right hand, which was shriveled and capable of only basic movement. Another notable deformity was his scales, which were very flimsy and easily torn off.
Naturally, Cragdor was the weakest of his brothers and sisters. Though he tried to participate in games, bug hunting and wrestling matches, he could never match up against his larger siblings. The other hatchings had no sympathy for their lame brother, and on more than one occasion conspired to eat him. Within a year of his birth, Cragdor's parents were considering simply allowing them to do it and spare the weakling a life of torment.
Whether out of mercy or further cruelty, the family decided not to eat Cragdor, but simply leave him to die in the forest. Unable to fend for himself, the youngling surely would have perished had he not by chance stumbled across another Trandoshan hunting in the woods. The hunter, a middle aged mercenary called Oshka the Red, had returned to his homeworld after fighting in the Clone Wars. Taking pity on the lost hatchling, Oshka took him in and gave him a bunk on his ship.
Under the tutelage of Oshka, Cragdor learned how to fight one handed with both blades and blasters, as well as with claws and teeth. What's more, Cragdor was raised on stories his 'Uncle Oshka' would tell him of the Clone Wars; how he led his clan through many historic battles, fought and befriended Jedi, and was eventually betrayed by both his clan and an evil Galactic Empire. Most of all, he learned of the Scorekeeper, the goddess of Trandoshan lore who keeps track of every hunter's lives and rewards them for the quality of their game.
Cragdor worked as a mercenary and occasional pirate along with Oshka, targeting mostly Imperial supply ships. Though he was aware of the growing rebellion, he felt no desire to commit himself to any cause other than his own. That is, until roughly four years ago, when new reached him about a massive space station capable of destroying planets. Though he had never visited Alderaan, Cragdor was horrified by its destruction. So it was that Cragdor left Oshka's service and sought out the Rebel Alliance, and eventually found himself among the ranks of Sunburst Battalion, serving with the Scarlet Moons.

So it was that Cragdor left Oshka's service and sought out the Rebel Alliance, and eventually found himself among the ranks of Sunburst Battalion, serving with the Scarlet Moons.
Outlook and Motivation
What Cragdor wants above all else is to prove himself. He has spent his whole life as the underdog due to his birth defects, finding it very difficult to hunt and earn Jagannath points. Because of this, he feels he has a very low standing in the eyes of his goddess, the Scorekeeper.
Seeing the Empire as a horrible organization of senseless murderers and tyrants, Cragdor believes that fighting against them is a worthy cause in the goddess’ eyes. Slaying such a beast would earn unimaginable prestige, and he would be welcomed into the afterlife as a hero.
Cragdor does not think much about the Rebellion’s plans for the future. He has very little interest in restoring the Republic or bringing order to the Galaxy. He simply wants a good hunt, and a means to show all those around him, especially fellow Trandoshans he meets, that he is not a cripple to be overlooked.
That being side, he does not consider himself above anyone else in the Scarlet Moons, nor does he believe he is exempt from the rules set by his commanding officer. He is loyal to those he shares common cause with, and a fierce companion to anyone he respects enough to call friend.

Language(s)
Skills and Connections
Flaws
CUNNING, Primary Characteristic: What Cragdor lacks in physical strength, he makes up for in a sharp mind. While most Trandoshans tend to run in, blasters firing and hissing challenges in Dosh, Cragdor prefers a more subtle approach. He takes the extra time to scout the area, learn the enemy’s habits and routines, then set a trap tailored to the specific target. In short, Cragnor sees every mission as a hunt, and he always remembers to tally the points he and his team acquire (even if they aren’t keeping track).
AGILITY, Secondary Characteristic: Not all situations can be solved with stealth. When the time comes for a fight, Cragdor is more than capable of holding his own. While he may not be strong enough to overpower an enemy, he can move fast and strike with either his claws or his sword. In the rare cases when the opportunity presents itself, Cragdor is not above sinking his teeth into an enemy throat or two.

Skills and Connections
Natural Hunter: Though Cragdor learned the finer points of hunting from Oshka the Red, the blood of predators has always run in his veins. With the heightened senses of a Trandoshan, there are very few creatures, sentient, beast, or droid, that Cragdor cannot track.
Spirituality: Having been raised with stories not only of the Scorekeeper, but also of the Jedi, Cragdor holds a great respect for life. Though he knows that most of his comrades do not share his beliefs, Cragdor often prays before and after a mission for the good health and good fortune of everyone in the Scarlet Moons.

Flaws
Physically Disabled: Cragdor’s left hand is far smaller and weaker than his left, making it difficult to hold certain objects. Cragdor also has a dermatological disorder that causes his scales to easily peel off.
Self-Consciousness: Cragdor tries to keep a brave face most of the time, but on occasion, his short comings do weigh upon his mind. He has been known to lose faith in himself during high stress situations in which the tide of battle is against him, though he tries his best not to let that effect his performance.

Cragdor's sheet looks solid, @Lord Greshh. This lizard's got a very reasonable motivation that integrates nicely with his weakness. Good work!
His rank depends on how many years spent with Scarlet Moons. If Cragdor joined right after Yavin, he'd probably worked his way up to a sergeant now. If he signed up within the last year or two, then corporal is more likely. While we're on the topic of time, I recommend adding some specific years in his background, so it's easier to connect to galactic events.
Other than the above, let's see if @Zoey White has anything to say.

uh yeah man, looks really cool. I like him a lot, can't wait to see him rack up some points.
Maybe he could get a robo-hand at some point. when he learns that all he needs to be is the best lizardman he can be. i dunno! Looking forward to seeing how he pans out

 | Arosha Tye 167 cm | 60 kg | 31 | Togruta |
Profile
Appearance
Background
Outlook and Motivation
A slim, lithe build with dense almost eloquent muscles underneath her skin, Arosha can be quite intimidating. Especially when taken into account her vibrant skin colour, gold eyes, and no-nonsense type of face. Her skin, a vibrant amber mixed with streaks and dots of brown course through her face and body, with thick lekku that dangle down to her mid-thigh and an equally thick set of mentrals that curve upward into a sort of crown. Their shade a light grey streaked with vibrant teal. Apart from her eyelashes, she has no visible hair along her entire body but does have to parallel scars running down along her back and a transverse scar on the right side of her abdomen.
Her usual attire consists of muted colours when she's out in the field: black, fitted, combat uniform underneath a dark grey anti-blaster chest piece that covers her entire torso and upper shoulders. On her face she wears a dark helmet with retractable visors along with an integrated comm-link. When away from the field, she usually wears clothes as vibrant as her skin. Flowing robes of bright yellows, reds, with adorned gold and silver jewellery.
And just like her clothes, her face lightens considerably when she's not on out on any mission. Constant smiles with bright, friendly eyes. Usually accompanied with a friendly, almost care-free attitude.

Background
Arosha was born within a large, almost war-like tribe within the planet Shili. And was daughter of the powerful and infamous warlord Zavro Tye who had dreams of conquering the other tribes and bringing them under a single banner. From a young age, her father made sure he brought in scholars from the various core worlds of the Republic to teach and school the young Arosha. She was taught art, Republic-approved philosophy, and statecraft with the hopes that she would represent Shili in the Senate.
As she aged and her knowledge grew, she spoke with her father and managed to convince him, after months of dialogue, to stop the war in order to start peace-talks with the other tribes and resolve the conflict peacefully. She travelled throughout Shili, exploring the wild grasslands and vast, deep valleys as she went from tribe-to-tribe, convincing them of the prosperity they would have if they joined as a single, united people instead of isolated tribes.
And because of the Togrutite's strong belief in unity, she managed to convince most of the tribes to fold and join her father's banner. Some refused however and continued to hound the unified tribes as dialogue and trade-agreements and defensive pacts began with the core worlds of the republic. Arosha was then sent to Coruscant to represent her planet's interests.
She stayed there for several years, slowly working her way up through the senate, working to get her world and its interests recognized and was present when Supreme Chancellor Palpatine declared himself Emperor. Shocked, she asked the senator she was working under if it was wise to support Palpatine, to which he said it was indeed extreme but the best possible option they had to protect the galaxy and ensure its prosperity. Trusting in her senator's words, Arosha continued serving and growing her influence in Coruscant, fully expecting to become a senator in the new Imperial Senate.
Her advancement stopped when she heard a large pirate fleet attacked Shili and was exploiting the resources of her people. Upon going back, she boarded the pirate fleet and learned from its captain that they were commissioned by the Empire to attack her planet to sway the trade deals towards the Empire's favour. As she was deliberating what to do next, she learned from one of her friends still in Coruscant that the Emperor dissolved the Imperial Senate, thus further convincing Arosha that Palpatine was a power-hungry despot.
Angered by what the Empire was willing to do, she went back to her father and demanded they fight back against the Pirates, only to learn that her father was in on the plan. Horrified, and feeling betrayed, she went to the few remaining isolated tribes and after being imprisoned, managed to convince them she was willing to fight for the liberation of her planet. And it was during that time that she met Raki Syzua, a member of the rebels and nephew to Shaak Ti, who told her of the true atrocities of the Empire.
No longer doubting the evil of the Empire and Palpatine, she fought against the pirates and her father's forces who were enabling and protecting their operations. Their efforts lasted years, with little to no fruit and all throughout that time, her rage at the Empire grew, peaking when most of the friends she gained were killed or captured by the invading storm troopers after the pirates had been removed.
She fought off the invading troopers with guerrilla tactics, wasting their resources and leaving their men dead and wounded. Giving them no chance to rest until news came that the Emperor had been killed. The liberation front now emboldened led an assault on the storm troopers and killed or imprisoned what remained of them.
Arosha spoke with her father during the aftermath and after his arrest, begging him to plead guilty to the charges of treason and endangering the lives of the Togruta and their livlihood, which would spare him the death sentence. He instead gave her the cold shoulder and was promptly executed after the trial along with his advisors and generals that defended their actions.
With nothing left on her planet but pain and hurtful memories, Arosha left Shili to travel the galaxy helping other systems where she could against the Empire. Upon hearing news of a rebel fleet amassing in the troubled Dynali sector, she promptly went there and joined up.

Outlook and Motivation
As a Togruta, Arosha strongly believes in unity and teamwork. Having gone hunting in the plains and forests of Shili have taught her how many can work together to accomplish what a few could not. And the importance behind teamwork and reliance upon others. She relies on her team and those below her as much as they rely on her, believing strongly that if they work like a well oiled machine, very few things can stop their plans.
Her demeanor and the way she acts around others changes drastically depending on where she is. In the field she is cold, hard, and ruthless. A no nonsense type of attitude that's willing to do just about anything to prevent the rise of a second Empire. When she's away from the field however, she's almost the complete opposite, believing that she needs to let go of her hard, outer shell in order to be effective when she's on a mission or directing one. She believes that rest, above all, is one of the main reasons of her success.
As an intelligence and recon officer, she wholly believes in the means justifying the ends. Arosha will do anything at all to prevent something like the Empire taking over the galaxy again. She will kill, destroy, or sabotage just about anything if it will hurt the Empire and stop them from expanding and consolidating their power. Having watched her planet ravaged by war and her father killed, she will stop at nothing to prevent something similar from happening to another.

Skills and Connections
- Guerrilla tactics
- Having been part of a liberation front fighting for the freedom and the rights of her people against Empire-led pirates and storm troopers, Arosha understands and is capable of leading guerrilla tactics. Her tactics when it comes to this, like many other guerrilla operations, is to sabotage, waste resources, and endlessly harass with quick skirmishes. And although she far prefers recon, she's capable of stepping into a command role for a squad of skirmishers.
- Recon and intelligence gathering
- Ashora believes that her species evolved to perform and be part of recon operations. Her montrals allow her to detect movement around her ultrasonically, thus giving her and her kind an advantage in either slipping past or taking out potential threats. Just as well, her feet, which are almost always bare, allow her to sense the vibrations of the floor below her. And although not as refined as the way she can "see" with her montrals, it allows her to easily slip in and out of places she shouldn't be in.
- Diplomacy
- Not the most favoured skill in an army, but she is a skilled negotiator and diplomat, although what skills she had have rusted over the years. With practice however, she believes she can regain the silver tongue of a senator and the quick wit needed to maneuver through the galactic senate.
- Connections with the powerful
- As advisor to a Senator during the reign of the Empire, she came into contact and formed bonds with various powerful individuals. Lobbyists, merchants, and traffickers. Her role in the Senator's team, among advising him, was to get dirt or persuade the powerful into funding the Senator's efforts and backing him and his party when they needed the finance. Thus, she has a few outlying debts owed to her.
Flaws
- Arrogant
- There's a certain level of arrogance needed to have been part of a team in the Galactic Senate during the reign of the Empire, and another level of arrogance to believe one can become a senator. An outcome of her environment while she was in Coruscant, Arosha can be slightly demeaning and can sometimes look down on others as insignificant if they're not part of her squad or within the regiment she's in. This can often lead to her underestimating her enemies and believing herself and her men far superior in all ways.
- Deceitful
- Having been betrayed by her own father and the Empire which she once revered, Arosha isn't the most forthcoming individual. In fact, she can be incredibly deceitful and often plays loose with the truth if she can get away with it. Telling her squad they're going to be doing one thing, only to have them do something entirely different and far more questionable. It doesn't come from malice, but rather because she has difficulty in trusting those around her not to betray her at any moment. There are very few she trusts, and to those she tells the truth.
Accomplishments and Crimes
- Became an advisor of a Senator during the time of the Empire and was next in line to take the Senator's place
- Brought the warring Togruta clans under the banner of her father through diplomacy
- Helped liberate Shili from invading pirates and storm troopers

Understood, @Stormflyx. FoC is taking a hiatus after its last round of collabs, so you won't have to worry about that.
