The Jedi Order
There is no emotion, there is peace.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
There is no passion, there is serenity.
There is no chaos, there is harmony.
There is no death, there is the Force.
An ancient monastic peacekeeping organization unified by its belief and observance of the Force. Acting as the guardians of peace and justice in the Galactic Republic, over time became the most famous of the various groups that relied on the Force for their power. Led by the Jedi High Council composed twelve wise and powerful Jedi Masters, in no small part helped shape The Galaxy to what it is now.
The Dark Jedi
Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall free me.
Dark Jedi, also known as "Fallen" Jedi are Force-sensitives, frequently former Jedi, who chose to deny the light side of the Force and/or follow the dark side. Unlike their counterparts, Dark Jedi aren’t as well organized having no real collaborative group other then several cults stationed about the galaxy.
The Republic
The Republic the galactic government of the galaxy, supposedly able to sustain itself for over twenty-five thousand years it is said that its complete history would "fill a thousand libraries". Led by the Supreme Chancellor often at times either a senator or some sort of other representative could serve up to two four-year terms and could be removed from office at any time by the Senate with a Vote of No Confidence. From the recent investments into colonization of the Unknown Regions the Republic has discovered a wealth of new planets and systems all possessing valuable resources to the republic greatly improving the economy.
The Sith Empire
Located deep within the Unknown territories the Sith Empire lies in wait, for the past thousands of years the Sith Lord Darth Nexus has been slowly building both his army and power. Situated around several resource rich planets the Empires supplies are near limitless. Though the empire is indeed the ‘True’ Sith Empire there are actually few force wielding Sith. With the Republics recent pushes into unknown Sith territory it’ll only be a matter of time before the two sides meet and when that happens…war. [/blockquote]
The Exchange
A criminal organization known throughout the galaxy dealing in spice smuggling, extortion, weapon trafficking, slave trading, and bounty hunting. The Exchange has a stake in almost everything and anything it can get its hands on. Though a once powerful criminal syndicate over the recent years the Exchange has lost a great deal of power, now a mere shell of it’s former self the exchange will have to step up their game if they expect to stay on top.
The Mandalorians
The Mandalorians, a warlike, nomadic group of clan-based people consisting of members from multiple species, often at times serving as both mercenaries and bounty hunters their culture revolved around that of battle and war being a source of honor and pride in their community. Their leader Mandalore was the strongest and most worthy of the Mandalorian warriors and following his death a new one Mandalore would take his place and the cycle would continue. The Mandalorian culture is on the verge of obscurity, there are simply not enough Mandalorians to fight the once grand wars they’ve waged in the past. With the rise of a new Mandalore their new leader might be the Mandalorians last hope of preservation. [/blockquote]
