[center][color=aba000][i]Decades after the destruction of the second Death Star, the galaxy has entered a time of relative peace and stagnation. The Imperial Remnant remains a grave threat in the Outer Rim, with various Star Destroyers and their admirals acting as roving warlords. The Republic has chosen to deny further conflict, with renewed threats of separation from worlds in the mid rim forcing the reformed Senate's hand in disbanding most aspects of the Republic military in recent years. A fledgling Jedi Order has been re-established on Yavin IV, though many Jedi continue to pursue their own interests in the galaxy at large. Smugglers and Mercenaries, who would have been criminals in the days of the Empire and the Old Republic, have become lifelines for those in need. The only military personnel in service are Republic Rangers, highly trained soldier-pilots who patrol popular space lanes.

Of course... this tentative peace was never bound to last. Republic Intelligence believes that the fractured Imperial Remnant are beginning to rally behind a new banner. Rumors circulate of rogue force users with no connection to the Jedi Order. Crime families exploit weak and vulnerable systems while waging open war against each other. Rumors have even circulated that new Star Destroyers have emerged for the first time in decades... bearing the colors and and insignia of the Republic.

In the midst of it all, messages from Rothana spread across the galaxy. The messages are unclear, disorganized. They beg for aid. Whether it is through altruism or a desire for answers, some brave individuals answer the call.

It is a shame they fell for a trap.[/i][/color][/center]

[center][color=aba000][i]More than 3,000 years before the rise of the Galactic Empire, the Old Republic was brought low by their greatest threat yet: a Sith Empire. The Great Galactic War has been wearing down both sides for nearly a decade with little progress made in either end. On the capital world of Coruscant, a daring frontal assault on the republic by Darth Malgus threatens to cripple both the Jedi Order and the meager Army of the Republic in one fell swoop. With the space above Coruscant blockaded by the emergence of the Sith fleet and a mass bombing campaign on the surface, wayward heroes begin to converge into the lower levels of Coruscant to find a pilot crazy enough to escape with "a high priority" target that could save the Republic from accepting total defeat.[/i][/color][/center]
