The Gulag Plague tried to devastate us. We resisted.
The One Sith tried to end us. We resisted.
The Iron Empire tried to rule us. We resisted.
The Jen'ari Empire tried to shackle us. We resisted.
Now, we continue to rise.
From the Unknown Regions of the galaxy, the Chiss Ascendancy have remained a mysterious and enigmatic people. Despite their isolation, they have thrived, developing their technology beyond what most are capable of doing. They have fought countless enemies, overcome numerous threats, most of which the galaxy has no understanding or awareness of.
Through intelligence, strategy, cunning and dedication to the Chiss as a whole, the Ascendancy has survived - and even improved - after many attempts at others claiming what they have. And it is with this same drive and determination that the Chiss now step out into the galaxy proper, adopting new ideologies and beliefs, and embracing change where once they remained incapable of doing so.
We are the Chiss
Many do not understand the Chiss. Or they believe they know everything. Both opinions are ill-informed and incorrect. Where once the Chiss Ascendancy was a stagnant people, bound by archaic beliefs of non-aggression and strict xenophobia, more recent development between the Ruling Houses of our oligarchy have moved toward expanding those beliefs, improving our ideologies, and propelling the Chiss as a whole into the larger galaxy with even greater preparation and plans.
Below, we express a more open view of our changing ways, and welcome anyone willing to join us to do so:
New Ideology
For too long the the Chiss Ascendancy has been a reactive force. Our once strict adherence to being the non-aggressor has allowed other Empires to move on our territories and people, inflicting heavy losses and suffering. This once consistent mentality has now changed, and the Chiss have begin to shift their ideologies to be more precautionary and preventative.
So no longer will we watch as nearby sectors and planets are taken from beneath our noses, as we wait for confrontation. No, now, we will be taking those sectors, those planets, and we will be reinforcing our people and their ability to defend what is ours.
Bring your skills. We will utilize your strength for the fight to come.
The Force
The Chiss have a unique relationship with the Force, which manifests itself as powerful instances of Force Precognition in individuals called the Ozyly-esehembo. These young Chiss, each capable of seeing the future in startling detail, and even navigating fleets through hyperspace via the Force, are incredibly rare and highly respected.
Those that are Force Sensitive - whether Chiss or not - are considered very important to the Ascendancy, and are given the opportunity to study and develop their power, for the betterment of the Chiss as a whole, by serving in the Chiss Expansionary Defense Fleet.
Bring your power. We will train you to excel.
Other Species
The Ruling Houses have surmised that even non-Chiss are prone to being exceptional. And in this new belief, the Chiss Ascendancy have altered the existing, more xenophobic laws of the culture, and have opened the doors to allow other species into the culture. So long as you display admirable and impressive attributes, you are welcome to join our cause and people.
Bring your diversity. We will encourage you to surpass your limits.
Our Goals
The Chiss Ascendancy seeks to expand our borders, utilizing our new 'precaution is the best defense' ideology, where we will once again begin to claim territories that were ours. No longer will we allow so-called Empires to bring their destruction down on our people, and the galaxy will finally see, and understand, why so many have tried to bow us to their self-righteous causes...
Bring yourself... and we will all prepare.
Join us as we spread our superior strength and intelligence throughout the Unknown Regions and beyond!
