Atrisian Empire [New Faction]

This is something I've been wanting to do for a bit, mostly was waiting on a couple of friends. Finally decided to post it tonight, so here it is.

The Background

When the plague started the Imperial Moff of Atrisa, Moff Lee, sealed the planet from the outside Galaxy, to the point of ordering any incoming ships to be destroyed before they could land regardless of whose they were. To accomplish this he ordered the Atrisian Sector Defense Taskforce lead by the warship Rancor to remain in orbit. Then for the three hundred years of the plague and most of the remaining century the planet remained sealed off. During this time the system of the Galactic Empire remained intact, and they continued to consider themselves citizens of the Empire despite being only a single planet with no outside contact.

Over the years the planet Atrisia, or as it was often known Kitel Phard), was forgotten disappeared from maps throughout the Galaxy. A series of Moffs would rule the planet, with the newest in the chain being a man named Zin Shu. When it seemed the plague had finally subsided, and word reached Atrisia, the Navy was dispatched to nearby planets. The scientists on the planet reasoned that the plague had not disappeared, but had simply been adapted to. Thus if Atrisians broke their quarantine and landed without protection, they would experience the effects of the plague their ancestors had avoided. So the Navy seized large numbers of people from planets that had been affected, and using their blood the Atrisian scientists created a vaccine.

Once it was safe to leave their planet without fear of infection, they began to bring nearby planets under their influence. Most of these worlds were poor and had been effected heavily by the plague, but they provided Atrisia with materials it needed to support the Atrisian Navy which was much larger than what a single planet could normally support. As Atrisia pushed into nearby territories and fought of pirates and other intruders, they watched the other greater powers expanding exponentially.

To prevent Atrisia from being overrun and conquered Moff Shu decided to seek out an alliance, so he sent Vice-Admiral Akio Kahoshi to seek protectorate status under the Republic. The admiral met with Chancellor Saelari, and in exchange for trade agreements and a military alliance, a treaty was signed. Now the people of Atrisia must seek their place in the Galaxy while attempting to hold onto their culture.

What it is about

The Atrisian Empire is a microcosm of the pre-plague Galactic Empire that has survived, though subtly affected by Atrisian culture. Atrisians must deal with the fact that while they are Imperial, they are tied to the Republic which seems counterpoint to their culture. Can the Atrisian Empire survive constant contact with the Republic and retain its Imperial identity?

What can you do in the Atrisian Empire?

Imperial Atrisian Navy – Everything from pilot, to ship captain, to admiral is found within the Navy. It is the main branch of the Atrisian military, the first defense against intrusion and the strong arm that reaches out to conquer new planets. The Navy is the primary force used by the Republic.

Stormtrooper Corps – Highly trained, the stormtroopers are among the best soldiers in the Galaxy. They are relatively few in number, but are the main strike force of the Navy when it comes to ground warfare. Stormtroopers come in many shapes and sizes, including scout troopers, sand troopers, and snow troopers.

Atrisian Imperial Army – Larger than the stormtrooper corps, the Army is responsible for holding Atrisian territory and supporting invasions after the initial wave of Stormtroopers. Vehicles such as the AT-AT and AT-ST belong to the Atrisian Army. The Army has had little to do until recent years.

Imperial Intelligence Bureau – The external intelligence service of the Atrisian Empire, it is only just now beginning to establish contacts with the outside world. They retain the training from the Empire of old that at one time made it the best intelligence organization in the Galaxy.

Internal Security Bureau – The rival to the IIB, the Internal Security Bureau is responsible for dealing with treats to the Empire both internal and external in nature. They are most well-known for the white uniform officers who serve alongside the other military branches to insure Imperial laws and regulations are followed but there are also many agents that serve the ISB in the field.

The Inquisition – The smallest of the Atrisian branches, the Inquisition is known only by the highest ranking officials and consists of Force trained individuals. Its sole purpose is to deal with dangerous force users, which in recent centuries was mostly Atrisians who awoke to the Force without training.

Government Officials – Within the Imperial system, even the government is militarized. For now the highest rank in the Empire is held by Moff Shu, the latest in the long line of Moffs to rule the planet. All other branches fall below this rank.

Civilians – Despite the military nature of the Empire, not every citizen is part of it. The civilians make up the rest of the Empire, including scientists. However in the Empire, no one is completely free of military influence.

Atrisia

The home planet of the Atrisian Empire, Atrisia has a culture that stands out from other planets. It consists of several cultural groups that while similar, are all subtly different. Religions on the planet tend to be more spiritual and philosophical rather than focusing on any one great power, but religion is considered a private matter. Something rarely discussed with others. Still, many creatures and demi-gods featured in their religions are well known throughout the Galaxy. This planet is famous for the Sayings of the Tching Dynasty, whose teachings on wielding power, diplomacy, and espionage is used to this day.

Yovshin Swordsmen – Warriors from Atrisia’s past, their duel wielding style of Jar’Kai, named after the capital city, inspired the sixth form of lightsaber combat, niman. These swordsmen operated in strict codes, and held their own social rank within the Atrisian Nobility. The title and sword style was often passed from parent to child.

The Reki – The criminal underground of the Atrisian Empire is ruled by the Reki, or Family. Considering themselves the modern version of the Yovshin swordsmen, they see themselves as the shadowy protectors of Atrisia. The largest and most powerful Reki clan is the Kahoshi clan, led by Shin and Iliana Kahoshi. Like the Yovshin, they follow strict rules with the Family, and loyalty to the Family is top most among them. Their place within the socio-economic system of the Atrisian Empire makes it impossible to dislodge the heads of the Reki, and proof of their involvement is nonexistent. This has lead to a constant war between the ISB and Reki.
