It is a time of conflict in the Galaxy, the Emperor is dead alongside his right hand man Darth Vader during the destruction of the Second Death Star above the forest moon of Endor during a battle that saw many of the Imperial War Machines Senior naval officers perish. As the Rebellion transitions into the New Republic all out war spreads throughout the Galaxy. A war, that is rife with opportunity.

Jabba the Hutt is dead, his sailbarge destroyed. The remaining Hutts, their numbered diminished, all vy for the scraps in order to absorb Jabbas vast criminal empire into their own. Meanwhile new players enter the field, Hutt Space is a buzz with activity as known Crime Lords rise up from the ashes of the fallen while the former Giants of the underworld try to maintain control. All the while forces of the Imperial Remnant and New Republic view the sector in chaos with greedy eyes.

Welcome one and all, to the first Roleplay I've GM'd since making my return. Those of you who have been on the Guild for a substantial period of time may know me for such Roleplays as No Turning Back, Dawn of Heroes, Crisis: Mars, Rancor Company and Jedi Exile. This roleplay will be largely free roam, and if you couldn't guess it takes place within the sector known as Hutt Space. Players will be forced to form allegiances to make their living in the sector as it is torn apart by both internal and external forces. As the GM I will have input to ensure that everyone has something to do, though if you are a player who like me enjoys autonamy then I am willing to give it.

You may be asking yourself what kind of theme I'm going for here, I'm aiming for the Roleplay to have a very Wild West theme, with two warring factions on the outside, while those who are more idealistic may be seeking to bring Law and Order to uncivilized space.

What kind of characters can you play I hear you ask?

Imperial: The Imperials know the power that lies in even a fractured Hutt Cartel. There's a lot of money and resources an Imperial Remnant can make use off. There's also a degree of anonymity in their space, somewhere to run away to escape persecution from Imperial or New Republic forces alike.
New Republic: The Imperials understood the importance of the smuggler trade that went through Hutt Space. The New Republic are a bit more idealistic and naive, a entire region of space corrupt with slavery, poor living conditions and riddled with crime? That's a region of space full of people who can be liberated and then brought into the New Republic. Task Force Rancor is sat in position in an unnamed system just outside of Hutt Space, assessing the situation.
Criminals: I need not explain what criminals can do in Hutt Space? 

I'm giving a lot of creative freedom in this roleplay, should you want to be an Imperial Warlord on the run or a criminal trying to form a new Criminal Empire or a bounty hunter looking for his next contract, I want to see what you've got!

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

In this Roleplay, Players will be playing characters confined within Hutt Space. Political shiftings in the wider Galaxy, as well as within this area of space provides a rich canvas for players to make their own stamp on Star Wars history. Shall you fight with the New Republic to liberate those that have lived under the Hutts for centuries? Or will you seek the power that the Hutts once held for yourself? It is possible for a player to play as part of one of the GM controlled factions, to form their own faction or to alternatively act as an individual just trying to make a living in a dangerous galaxy.

Rules:

1. While I am open to Input, like many RP's GMs word is law.
2. No killing off other player characters/Important NPCs with just one hit. Discussion needs to happen OOC and agreements need to be made that said...
3. If you do something incredibly stupid, such as putting your character right in the way of a turbolaster blast. They're probably going to die, while I want to avoid having anyones chars/npcs die when they don't want them too, try to act logically with them to preserve their life.
4. Please keep faction growth realistic, if you are in charge of a faction.
5. No Metagaming/Powergaming.
6. This Roleplay is going to contain some slightly more mature themes, blood, gore and swearing is allowed however should be kept tasteful (no doing it just for the sake of doing it). Anything in regards to what you are doing to that alien hooker, we don't need to know.
7. In your character history mention some form of dealing with a Drunk Dug with a Gambling Problem at least once, it doesn't need to be elaborate just to make me know you've read the rules (in a non obvious manner).
8. Respect eachother.
9. Have fun.

GM - Controlled Factions:

These factions are controlled by myself in order to facilitate events that can help players progress and interact with one another. 

The Hutt Clan is not what it once was, after the death of Jabba the Hutt the most infamous and powerful of the Hutt Cartel there was serious disarray amongst the council that formed the leadership of the Hutt Cartel. Their number had been seriously hurt since the start of the Clone Wars, Jabbas death had been the final nail in the coffin as Hutts warred among themselves to pick up the slack. While they still control the majority of Hutt Space they no longer have full control.

More recently a Hutt by the name of Boonatta siezed control, and rather than leading as a council 'she' rules with an iron first... as Queen.
These are not the only members of the Hutt Cartel, however are some of the most important.

Boonatta is a ruthless, cunning and dangerous Hutt. Largely in the shadows throughout the Cartels history, she never truly had a place on the council of the Hutt Clan. For whatever reason Jabba saught to have her distanced from the major affairs of the Hutt Clan, much like Grakkus. However unlike Grakkus who found himself imprisoned by the Rebel Alliance Boonatta managed to Capitalize on the death of Jabba. First to the sail barge where he died, first to find the recording of his death and subsequently destroy it.

She rose in power fast, and killed those that opposed her. Thankfully the Hutt life span is incredibly long, for her court has very few members and she keeps a close eye on any other Hutts that are not in her court.

Timana is Boonattas biggest rival, while he is physically more impressive than Boonatta he lacks the political support in order to do anything about killing her, and she is far too careful to be caught off guard. Instead he plays along while in public, and Boonatta keeps him around solely as he has contacts and information that is incredibly useful to her. 

This is a relationship just waiting to come crashing to a terrible end, and when it does there will be blood.

Marlo was one of the Hutts that sat at Jabbas table, one of the few who did so and still manages to be in the court of the new 'Queen'. Marlo doesn't typically care who is in charge, all he cares about is his own profits and lavish lifestyle. Things are good, as he's still the biggest slave trader within Hutt Space.

Task Force Rancor was assigned by the New Republic Senate to investigate and, if deemed appropriate, intervene in the events of Hutt Space. As the New Republic discovers that all out war is the result of the death of the Emperor they are finding that now more than ever they need supplies, credits and soldiers who know how to fight and are not just farm boys who are thrust into conflict. Hutt Space provides a wealth of all these things, and as such the Task Force has deployed agents all throughout the sector to try and gauge support for the New Republic.

While initially they were met largely with hostility, as things change within the space more and more individuals are entertaining the idea of being free. It is still unknown whether the senate will approve military action or try a more peaceful diplomatic method, all that is known is that sooner or later the Imperials are going to try the same thing.
I will be responsible for any information from the higher echelons of command not within Task Force Rancor.

Admiral Romi Hansumi has been with the Rebellion since it's inception, New Republic records don't shed much on his history though everyone that works for him knows that before he was a Rebel he was a pirate that targetted Imperial Shipments. While it is nothing new that an Officer in the 'Rebel Navy', now the New Republic Starfleet, used to be a pirate it's one of those facts that they aren't entirely comfortable with the ignorant masses knowing. 

With his familiarity of Hutt Space, and with the results he offered during the Rebellion when the New Republic comissioned a Task Force outside of Hutt Space he was the obvious choice. He commands the task force from the MC80 Liberator.

Colonel Thereon is the officer in charge of the Pathfinder contingent placed within Task Force Rancor, while there are many other ground elements present in the fleet the only group currently active within Hutt Space are the Pathfinders, with their ability to look like just any other mercenary. Word in the fleet is that he grew up in Hutt Space and has been fighting all his life.

Wilma Imari is the black sheep in the command structure of Task Force Rancor. Former Imperial, turned Rebel Informant turned New Republic Intelligence Operative. She's in charge of the spies, the informants and the general nasty business that no-one else wants to touch. Her methods, sometimes questioned due to her past. It can't be doubted however that she gets the job done.

The believers are a radical, revolutionary movement in Hutt space. Growing slowly in the past ten years, it is most famed for the Xolu revolt however until the death of Jabba the Hutt was confirmed that broadcasts from their leader Cinder increased throughout Hutt Space and more and more members began to revolt against their previous lords and masters. Many of these revolts are quickly quashed with extreme force, however for every ten revolutionaries killed one more seems to slip away. 
The leader of the Believers is a figure known only as “Cinder”. He is an enigmatic individual who, much like the organization he represents, operates primarily from the shadows. His ever-increasing bounty postings describe him as a red-skinned Twi’lek of average height and average build, possibly in his mid-to-late thirties. However, his identity has never been independently confirmed. 

According to Beliefers sources, Cinder was a former slave who orchestrated a slave revolt on the planet Xolu ten years prior: an event which, at the very least, can be confirmed to have actually happened. They describe him as a brilliant tactician and a compassionate leader. He is charismatic, and is known to broadcast passionate speeches, with his voice masked, on hijacked holonet transmissions. Whether any of the information on Cinder is accurate, or if he is even an individual who exists at all, remains to be seen, but the influence that the figure has had on the region is undeniable

Player Factions:

These factions are created by players, in the Hider to the faction information it will say if it is available to be applied to.

There are two types of application, character and faction. For those of you just wanting to be scum for hire, all you need to do is fill out a character application. For those wanting a faction you will have to fill out the CS of any character you intend to use as a PC.
