- City Name: New Alula City or "Nac"
- Classification: Urban Center
- Location: Qena System, Seventh Moon of Fourth Planet
- Affiliation: NSLR
- Population: Moderate
- Demographics: Primarily Echani, tolerant of outsiders
- Wealth: Medium More than self sufficient but no extreme surpluses or coveted rare exports
- Stability: High Highly militarized citizenry who are all prosperous
- Freedom & Oppression: Relaxed and open local government. Most non-violent crime is tolerated as is any reprisals that do not lead to deaths.
- Description: A small urban center nestled in a high mountain valley, surrounded on all sides by high peaks. Several large and many smaller towers stretch into the sky, the largest rivaling the height of the nearby mountains. The city inside the valley is often shrouded in fog, with only the tops of the towers remain visible.
Talen Tower - The home of House Susni and local headquarters of the Moonguard as well as House Talen. One of the largest towers in the city, it is appeasingly styled, and well able to house and service the thousands who live and work in the building. Located near the center of downtown NAC, it was one of the first permanent hab towers completed, though eclipsed now in size and stature by more modern skysrapers.
Garrison/Starport - A small spaceport located at one edge of the city where the mountains part to allow entry into the valley from the ground. Also here is the city's defense garrison, wing of starfighters, walkers and battle droids. This is the only militarized area in the city, and the only way in or out by land, air and space. Customs and law enforcement are also headquartered in this district.
SECURITY
Medium
A local militia keeps the peace, though as a military founded colony, almost every permanent resident is an active or reserve member of the militia. Small garrison with star fighters and battle droids provide heavier firepower for civil defense. As the home of the NSLR, any attacker would also likely encounter elite Remnant forces such as drop troopers or even the moon guard. The city has no heavy emplacements itself but there is always an NSLR ship on station in orbit to provide aid and support.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
New Alula City is founded on an outer moon of a gas giant in the Qena System. The seventh moon of the fourth planet was formerly a nature preserve similar to the system's third planet. The moon has an equatorial ocean, and a north and southern continent each stretching to the poles.
The moon was placed into the stewardship of Arla Susni and her Relief Force after they had helped in curing a virulent outbreak of plague on the capital world of Qena Prime. A recent catastrophic shift of the climate caused by a volcanic eruption had caused a mass extinction, rendering the moon unsuitable for its former purpose. Settling down on the southern continent in a mountain valley, the settlement of New Alula City was founded by the New Star League Remnants, finally settling down after their exile from their home system of Alula.
Many thousands from among the Remnants chose to settle and live on their new home world permanently, which led to the creation of local industries and commercial ventures before the ships drives had even begun to cool. The Alulan spirit of efficiency and effort was alive and well among the settlers.
New Alula City provides a home for the Remnants, ending their nomadic wandering. Now it provides home, shelter, and a place to retreat to at need. It is a source of personnel and supplies, and a recompense for the home they have left behind. Many smaller towns have been founded across both continents, but the capital of New Alula City remains the primary center of civilization, trade, and the government. In a nod to Alulan efficiency, or perhaps a consequence of it, the city is referred to as 'Nac'; though the ignorant do often call it 'Nac City' completely unaware of this.
The city has grown over time to fill the small valley in which it was founded. All that can be seen from a distance is the tops of the tallest towers peeking out above the mountain fog that often shrouds the city.
