Over several centuries they became ingrained into the society of the planet adopting as time went several stances and sects. From warriors of the shadow a sisterhood of mute fighters sent to war to caretakers of knowledge in an ancient Stardragons temple.
- Kooroo: An ancient cult on the moon of Catia, when they made contact with the sisterhood a small war broke out with crusades being led to try and conquer them... but then they vanished retreating from the galaxy into Firefist and leaving beyond their temple, their doctrines and rituals.

- Affiliation: Atrisian Commonwealth
- Wealth: Wealthy: Being one of the few envirnonments where rare vine silk and coffee can be grown. As well as the chemicals to develop illerium essential for starships across the galaxy. The heavy trade is high end and leads to financial wealth for the royal family that filters to the Commonwealth itself.
- Stability: High: Being on the edge of the Commonwealths space the world and the Asobi system in general have developed a highly stable structure with a force presence and being a place that many in the galaxy come to visit or even stay.
- Freedom & Oppression: Free among the Commonwealth and one of the outer systems that aids in its trade routes. The royal family an extension of the older Atrisian bloodlines that have brought in to them thousands of refugees for the system as well as the means to feed and house even more.
- Military: The structure of the Tal Military is very regimented and strict with most being made up on common warriors a rank that encompasses all ground and boarding forces who hold the weapons with ranks among them to reflect their position. Then there are the officers who serve as crew for ships, captains, admirals and pilots, in order for a common warrior to become an officer they must first pass an exam at the academy and be vetted by an oversight committee. Their entire past, their family and their lineage is tried and tested until they are either accepted or rejected in which case they are not allowed to try again.
Service in the military for common people allows for citizenship within Tal society. You are able to gain more money and higher status, if you are married even get your family citizenship to allow them to prosper. Those who don't serve however are not looked down upon they just have lesser jobs such as butchers, janitors, tending to the dead, food service and working the fields. The few who really elevate themselves might be taken into the domes to tend to the old vine coffee and silk reserves that the planet was protected for during Palpatine's reign. - Technology: Galactic Standard on par with Atrisia using fabricators and dimensional engineering. With emphasis on agriculture and resource mining that cna be sent out to other Commonwealth worlds.
- THE INCIDENT
Seeding their world with the slaves and using them in conflict with the other sects of the Nihl retreat. War against the Kanzers led to the first destruction of Loa in their battle and the destruction of the codex. This attracted attentions from older beings, things that slept beyond shadows and were described within the codex. The Warriors of Shadow fled using one of the hypergates and going to a new world they could call their own.
When they arrived the slaves they brought learned to serve them as the sisterhood put them to work and the ripples of the actions echoed through the force. They ordered the destruction of the hypergate so the Kanzer could not follow them, it was a dangerous thing to allow to survive but the rest of their order was in the Rift away from them and engaged in fighting with the other groups for several thousand years.
- PRE REPUBLIC
Then beings from the sky came and this mysterious race built ruins on the surface of the planet, on the moons with foreign materials. Stone and elements not known or native to the planet, some of the earliest technology found and legends are of tools created from metal fallen from the skies. As the time ticked on the planet was visited.
Ancient being came and settled bringing their war like culture and obsession with taking what they wanted. They taught the Tals hatred and enslaved many of them. It took nearly a thousand years of slavery and subjugation under the purebloods to drive them off as the Tals learned to practice warfare and deception.
Once the majority were driven off several of their creatures and a small portion of people remained. A tribe that was sent deep into the mountains but warned to never come down. When the next beings came offering peace and knowledge from a group called the jedi order the Tals descended upon them and attacked at first... but the jedi were not like the sith they kept to their word and shared.
- REPUBLIC
It brought much attention none more so from a man who wished to set up a guild house for his order of personal bounty hunters and assassins. With an overseer to help protect the fledgling Galactic Republic. All of them working with the Tals to best improve and build towards friendlier relations with the community.
The importing of species and influx of creatures and people from the galaxy brought a boom to the construction and economy. Temples were built and trade hubs created on the moon for them to use, the people went out and explored the galaxy further then they ever had before visiting the shining jewel of Coruscant where statues similar to the ones they had on their world.
The Republic's starcharts allowed for many things to also be sold off using supply and demand. Their trade of ores and food giving way to exotic creatures from the region and with some work The invisible market flourished setting up a shop for Genoharadan to use the world coming from the old sith space. Their work creating plenty of opportunities while they branched out.
As the sith threat rose and was cast down again the government of the world changed loyalties several times. The people of the world working with the Republic when they could but choosing to be more business minded in their dealings with the sith and Puis Dais when they overtook the Republic, casting the jedi order aside for nearly eight centuries.
With the wars starting and the the formation of the Army of Light things changed. The jedi who came to the world were more militant but it was understandable, sith experiments on the moon brought an infection. Their alchemy damning the moon when they found the orchids and tried to copy the experiments of a sith master on a world called Faustin.
- POST RUUSAN
The rise of the CIS brought new challenges, the outer rime sieges brought droid armies and clone soldiers to the skies and planet. The pursuit of weapons or new materials to use to make better droids had the CIS trying to strip mine the planet, unleashing droid armies and force the government through blockade of trade to join the CIS.
That was stopped as a large Republic fleet encountered the droid army and for seven months a large siege destroyed the stardragons palace a place built for a once wise sage like being. With the destruction deposits of Illerium were discovered allowing the world to gain a new export gasses for ejection seats.
The fall of the Republic led to a deactivation of the droid armies and irradiated Illerium from the fallout in some places halted construction of the ancient temple.
- PALPATINE'S EMPIRE
When word of the Tals moon reached the scientists who explored it they descended upon the world. Then went to the moon to harvest the infected creatures there for their experiments, leaving an open field of the dangerous and beautiful orchids on the planet's surface that matched the one on the moon.
Then reports came of rebellion, of people standing against the evils of the empire and Shri-Tal became a hidden base offering sanctuary in the mountains and access to the brought in defense platform. A dangerous and powerful Golan that could protect the system if rebel ships arrived en mass.
Then with the fall of the emperor at endor the people of Shri-tal celebrated bringing a small amount of peace to themselves and enjoying the freedom. They still had Imperial soldiers but with the warlords now preparing to go for power it allowed them to overpower some fo them.
- LEGACY
The Rebel alliance proved useful coming and offering help kicking the remnants of the Galactic empire off the planet in exchange for access to the trade hub. THeir work with the Tals proved beneficial and over a hundred years eventually Shri -tal rejoined the Galactic Alliance and its systems.
That proved useful as the One sith rose and the Galactic empire under the Fels retreated into hiding. Shri-Tal aided hiding several Imperial knights and allowing them sanctuary on their world in exchange for fighting on the moon to handle the infection after an Imperial experiment aggravated the creatures there.
- GULAG
As the dark time fell upon the planet and the ravages of the plague came to a stop a couple of centuries later the people struggled to rebuild. Focusing on the structure they needed and letting the ships be cannibalized to properly repair things, scout ships were sent out to nearby worlds to gather information and keep the navigational beacons activated.
To help then another sage from the sky appeared, a stardragon who had been going throughout different worlds and using space to avoid the plague. He setup in the ancient temple and provided council to the people of the planet.
- POST DARK TIMES
As time went on and the sith's war against the jedi, the Republic and the mandalorians continued things changed. More troopers were pulled off world and ships from the system. One of the biggest changes came with the constant changes in the regime and how some allowed for obscurity.
Then there was destruction and the Tals opened their borers to the Vanr who's home planet of Dromuund Kaas was wiped out by the Mandalorians. The beings while darkside and dangerous were in need of a home to call their own and a region of the planet near the tribe of sith was opened for them to use.
After the fall of the Empire the people of Shri-tal celebrated recreating the ancient tradition they held to of burning their oppressors in effigy yearly for a good harvest. The world celebrated as the Republic moved to try and stabilize the region but it wasn't the Republic they met with.
The peaceful and helpful jedi of the Silver order found the world through the navigation beacons and offered to lend aid. Their skills helped keep the infection contained to the moon and trade was opened with Voss who then was able to trade with the rest of the worlds in the Republic.
