Star Wars: Shattered Galaxy

A Long Time Ago, In A Galaxy Far, Far Away.....

Star Wars: Shattered Galaxy

Episode I: Rise of Heroes


It has been over a hundred years, since former Jedi Master Hadrius Cul, the Black General, took the dissaffected and downtrodden, and massed them into the largest military force the galaxy had ever seen.


It has been over one hundred years, since the final battle of the Wave of Darkness hit Coruscant, and the skyline of the city planet was set ablaze. Since the Republic was shattered. Since every major, and most minor shipyards were destroyed. Since most of the galaxies armies and fleets were vanquished. Since a complex virus destroyed the galactic holonet.


It has been over one hundred years, since the Galaxy was shattered.


Today, a large empire, or alliance, of worlds might number half a dozen. Today, the largest fleets might near twenty five capital ships and two hundred fighters.


The Jedi and Sith, like all Force users, are despised or distrusted, through most of the galaxy. Yet they still exist, in small numbers. The hardy Mandalorians still thrive, damaged less from the great war than many others. Small pockets of what was once the Empire or the Republic exist, a few worlds here, claiming such a title, or a few there.


The galaxy has endured over one hundred years of darkness, with it's focus on survival, rather than war, or advancement. Ships have fallen to disrepair. Economies, now far more isolated, either thrive, or falter, based on local issues, rather than galactic.


A dark power is rising in the galaxy, hidden from the site of all, silent, and unknown.



The Galaxy has been shattered for far too long.......

The purpose of this topic, is to directly relate the stuff from the character ideas topic, Directions, to the general ideas of the overall story plot.

Here's a rough sketch outline, of the first few chapters of Shattered Galaxy...

Shattered Galaxy: Episode I, Rise of Heroes

Chapter 1: Hope

Chapter 1's primary purposes are to begin to establish the overall look and feel of the current state of affairs in the galaxy, and to introduce some of the people who will become major players throughout the story.

Light in the Dark

As we've already seen, this topic is where Ra Cul has begun to assemble a small group of people. It has established, or will establish, the fact Ra has an agenda. It has introduced a major bad guy, and hinted to the existance of someone even higher up the food chain. The topic will come to a close somewhere around the escape from Coruscant.

Promises

This topic, which should be up shortly, will introduce several other characters, including a few story arc NPC's. It's set in Kuati system, where Ra and his pals will be heading next. It will focus on some of the political/military aspects of the state of galactic affairs.

Come the Dawn

The final topic of Chapter 1, will reveal that specially designed starship mentioned in Ra's bio, and send the whole galaxy into an uproar, as Ra commits a pair of acts so unthinkable, no one will have seen them coming...the lesser of which will be opening fire on Kuati vessels.....

These will be the only 3 topics for Chapter 1.

Chapter 2: Flight

With half the galaxy searching for Ra and his friends, shelter must be found....but where is safe, from that many different factions?

Outbound

This topic will pick up pretty much immedietely after the jump to hyperspace from Kuat. The implications of what Ra has done should be sinking in, and I'd guess he'd best be doing some really fast talking, if he wants to avoid a mutiny....

Alliances
In the wake of Ra's bold actions, the initial members of the Alliance must test their resolve, and determine if they are truly capable of moving their fledgling alliance into decesive action.

Of Widows & Warriors

This topic will focus on Barrick Leone, the Black Widows, and any other....not so nice...folks that have been created by this time. A chance to see what the opposition is cooking up, and some small insight into their grander schemes.

Excellior

On the run, from all kinds of people, Ra takes refuge at Excellior, homeworld of the Min. Ra's gonna drop some serious hints here, about what he's up to, and why he's doing the things he's doing, and expect a big bombshell from Jesera.

I've listed 4 topics here for Chapter 2. We allow up to 5 topics per chapter. I'm leaving room, at this point, for a couple extras, in case we come up with new ideas along the way....

Chapter 3: Into the Fire

With the startling revelations from the close of last chapter, time is even more crucial than before. The group must now find their way through a slowly organizing galactic community, in time to identify a truly dangerous threat...and this means going to enlist some aid....

Illum

Against better judgement, the group sets off to the homeworld of the Jedi Order....and with the colored past of much of the group...that's sure to be an...entertaining...stop over.

Clouds Gather

Led by Barrick Leone, the group's opposition begins to form a council of war, and Barrick plays the first of his trump cards.....another topic to focus a bit on the bad guys, but also any of the opposition still in the dark about what's really going on....

Korriban

Knowing some of what faces them, Ra determines the Jedi alone, may not be enough force to strike back with, so, along with anyone bold enough to follow, he makes the journey to Korriban, to enlist the aid of the Sith!

Again...3 out of a possible 5 topics....to allow room for creative juices to come up with new ideas...

Chapter 4 will go to 5 topics...4 normal, and the 5th topic will be one of those major event, larger topics......
