This is an idea that I tried a few months back; however due to my own hopping from idea to idea and other circumstances, I never gave it the proper attention that it deserved. Now as I have begun to put more focus on the Baroness, I am looking back at this possible idea and considering attempting a second chance. While this would require a rewrite, update and a bit of expansion on other parts of the original write up which evolved from the base faction idea titled the 'Magrath Barony' it is none the less something that I plan on putting focus, time and effort into to create and see reborn.
The Avidon Oligarchy is as it sounds; an Oligarchical Magocracy, with the idea having been that it was a place for refugee since the time of the Sith Empire's demise at the hands of the Republic, Mandalorians, and the now defunct Fel Imperium. The primary focus as I said was on refuge, offering a place for those fleeing from the former Sith Worlds to settle and catch their breath, while thinking of their next move. This also included and still includes in the system, a secret Sith Temple that was meant to be a training place.
At this moment however I know that many will ask what is the difference between this and all the other Sith Factions that have since popped up. To be blunt and honest; there isn't much. That is however not to say that it can not, through my efforts and the efforts of the members whom join, grow into something to distinguish itself from the myriad of other Sith factions. However the largest difference is that the Avidon Oligarchy was meant to be more diplomatic in terms when it came to the Republic and Mandalorians. It harbored members of the former Sith Empire and members of the Sith Order; however it was also focused on keeping to itself, keeping out of the conflicts and petty rivalries that would ultimately mark it as a target.
My vision for the Avidon Oligarchy was to create a small enclave that was carefully working towards keeping itself secure and prosperous while also appearing as a neutral ground between the Republic and the Mandalorians; with the ultimate goal of turning the old enemies against one another in a bid to weaken their holds on the surrounding areas to further strengthen the Oligarchy.
This is a faction that I was looking to center and build upon careful deliberation and diplomacy. To use such caution in their expansion and to look at a larger picture rather than short sighted conquest after conquest. However in order to even attain anything remotely close to the vision that I have for this faction, I need those whom would be just as willing to put in the time and effort to care and aid in the growth of such a faction.
I know that it is likely the over all view of me is of someone whom is hopping from idea to idea once they get bored of the previous. This is a problem that I know I have and I am forcing myself to stick with the Baroness; to pour all of my creativity into a character that I had developed over a year ago and allowed to sit dormant without realizing the full potential that this character can become and the stories that both the Baroness and the Magrath Family that I've built around her can bring to the site.
This is my core focus now; the development and fostering of story lines and creative input into the Baroness, the Magrath Family and the Avidon System.
I ask that if there are those whom would like to help see this idea through, to please join. Or if there are those whom may have ideas or helpful criticism to voice their opinion or thoughts.
