Local Organizations
The Resistance: What is called the Resistance is a local group who find the jackboots of the Empire and their lackeys distasteful, made up of folks who feel their rights are being trampled by this new galactic government they are not part of some galaxy wide rebellion but could be if allowed to flourish and survive instead they simply resist the local governance and their Imperial overlords; hitting supply lines, striking at industrial site, and basically impeding the work that the Empire needs done and making the local governance look bad. These are people who remember the freedom of the frontier and seem determined to recapture that nostalgia. They operate in the shadows and most members come from those who live in the shadow of wealth and power and feel that the world is no longer working for their best interest, they don’t have lofty ideals yet, but they could if they found the right cause to unite around outside of some general notion of self determination. They have a cell network at best and no real overall leader but some individuals seem to rise above others like ex-Republic marine, Yusandr Viks or the enigmatic Red Night, names known to the Empire and heroes to the downtrodden.
Yusandr is considered a folk hero despite herself shrugging off the title, she’s down to earth and accessible, well as accessible as a known Imperial criminal can be. She turned to the Resistance when her husband was killed in an Imperial raid, an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire and gunned down to the ruthless nature attributed to this new Empire.
In Contrast the rogue called Red Night is probably just a bandit who also seems to enjoy striking at Imperial assets and that has given him a bit of a legend and reputation. He is ruthless to the Empire but he tends to give back to the downtrodden in his own ways which makes him a likable trickster figure. Nominally a member of the Resistance, he tends to focus on doing what he can to line his pockets, aid those he sees need aiding, and causing some mayhem.
Aznuri: The kilometer tall forests of the sky-tree sea are home to tribes of sentients, human, twi’lek, and other common species who live in a strange techno-primitivism and call themselves the Aznuri. They speak their own language but some have been known to speak Basic and Huttese on the rare occasions they meet with outsiders. Many consider them violent and xenophobic but they seem to only be violent when people intrude into their regions of the sky-tree sea which are usually marked, as long as one knows what to look for. The Empire leaves the Aznuri alone, they have nothing they want and they are more concerned with the hypermatter industry than pacifying tribals living in a vast primal forest. The thick canopy makes the sky-tree sea a place of twilight lit by the plants and animal life that exist there. The Aznuri often wear war paints that glow in the twilight, not exactly stealthy but it can be terrifying to see when their warriors come at you.
The tribes do war with each other over resources but save their ire for outsiders and frontiersmen know better than to intrude into those regions the tribes call their own. Despite this they are not overly warlike and rarely chase outsiders once they leave their lands, it makes some think they are protecting something but what that could be no one can fathom or even care to contemplate.
The Hutt Cartels: The criminal syndicate of the Hutts is expansive and feared, this is no different for this local branch under the control of Tididol the Hutt. She is ruthless, callous, and always keeps her eye on the credits. They know how far they can stretch the law without the Empire slamming down on them like a hammer and make sure to grease the right palms to get things done and also providing legitimate fronts to aid the local business and keep themselves entwined with local industry. If you want to work and don’t care about getting your hands dirty there is always something that needs doing.
