Expedition to Exocron

Sor-Jan Xantha

Anyone interested in an expedition to Exocron?


Exocron was a garden world, covered in forests and mountain ranges. The planet was hidden inside a protostar that threw up a cloak of radiation and sensor-jamming static. Much of the Kathol Outback were unaware of the existence of the planet, and it did not appear on any official starcharts of the region. However, legends persisted of a fabled, hidden world.
As background, the planet was developed for use by the Star Wars Roleplaying Game supplements branded The DarkStryder Campaign, which followed the adventurers of the New Republic Ship FarStar.

My character is primarily an archaeologist, so his story hook for joining the Kathol Outback is that he wants to study the history of this region. My thought is that he's in pursuit of whatever happened to the colony ships that the Old Republic sent to this sector, in search of the mythical world of Exo.

This thread could lay the ground work for a future dominion, or just further expand of the lore of the region.

Locations of interest include:

Jorj Car'das's Fortress is the most well fleshed out and detailed location here, and is basically a mansion built into the side of a mountain. It could form the basis for a number of uses. A research hospital, Jedi Temple, "Outback Embassy", or even [member="Siobhan Kerrigan"]'s other, other, other summer vacation home.

Caballa City, the capital of Exocron

Rinatta City, which has a landing field. Landing platforms are referred to as "Circles" rather than "Docking Bays" (e.g. Circle 15)

In terms of Chaos Canon, Exocron featured as one of the worlds visited by the Moross Crusade. Here's the most pertinent thread on that I could find. Which means that there could be a strong religious presence, or strong opposition to anything resembling a Moross Crusader (such as a Jedi or Sith, etc). If anyone has more information on what the Crusade/Lords of the Fringe were doing to develop Exocron or any lasting plots that we could build on, I'm all ears. Otherwise, I'm assuming its a largely blank canvas for us to fill in.

[member="Lydeck"] if you're still interested in being a member of the Alderaan Queen crew, would this interest you?

And [member="Bryce Bantam"] if you're looking for Force Training, this could be a good location for some of that.

And, anyone else that's drunk enough to venture off the map with a ship operated by a pair of kids, feel free to sign up as well.

Awesome! I'll see what other interest we gather and try to have a start for us tomorrow :)
 
[member="Lok Munin"], [member="Ijaat Mereel"], [member="Sor-Jan Xantha"], Just throwing this out there, would we want to make this into a DOM? I know we don't really play the map game but this planet would be in the hex our current dom target is in...

Not a thing we need to do with it, just and FYI.

We certainly meet the 5 unique writers requirement for a Dominion, but I know a lot of planning has gone into the dominion for Kalshebbol. If we did a Tier 3 dominion, we'd get Exocron and Kesh all at the same time.

This is more just to get some story and a more adventurous faction thread going. Plus, without knowing when the next map update will be, it could be another week before we're recognized. And I'd rather stoke the fire while it's hot than wait and hope it's still there.

If Kalshebbol doesn't go Tier 3, we can always lay the ground work in this thread and do a dominion based on what this thread establishes.

Just my thoughts though. I'm open to suggestions.

Also [member="Eliza Raxis"] welcome aboard. I'm hoping to get this going tomorrow.

There's an herb for that.

Count in a recovering alcoholic medic. So sorry, can't get drunk for the kiddo ship ride. But I'll be there sober. And screaming like a barmy girl the entire time.
 
Sorry, sounded a bit of an arse, I should note: I would love for this to lay the groundwork for our dominion (in some way) for Kal'shebbol. But at current this should not be a dom because we don't know when we are added to the map, and we can't run a dom until we are, to my knowledge.

...and we are live!

I tried to leave it as open as possible as to people's motivations, reasons for being there, or even how they got to be there.

Wouldn't be the first time.

Possibly, not the second either. But I'm positive that's happened at least once. The Ossus dominion, I think.
