As the Sword had laid the One Sith and their Empire low, the Shadows of the past began to stir. Once thought beaten through the efforts of the many, the insidious Vanguard - bereft of their beloved Leader - had slowly risen from the ashes of their myriad defeats and begun marshaling what remained of their forces on the fringe worlds of the Federation. They were preparing for the end, either their own or that of the Alliance.
Today, as the red sun rises, One would finally find their place among the stars.
Objective One: His Last Command.
Denied the counsel of his enigmatic leader, Furion Kade, a former Grand Moff within the One Sith Empire and now the Master of the Vanguard has begun mustering his forces in the skies above Bomis Koori IV. Anchored in high orbit, hundreds of sleek Imperial-grey warships await their Lord and Master's command, setting out into the darkness of the empyrean to finally crush the upstart Federation at its source, and slaughter the Scions of Skywalker - ultimately closing the last chapter in that benighted epoch. Stop them at any cost, for if they succeed and destroy all that the Alliance has worked so hard to build - the Only peace we shall ever know is that of the grave…
Objective Two: Copper Sun.
The world of Noe’ha’on was steeped in infamy, for those that called this jungle planet their home were renowned across the galaxy for a culture of slavery. As the Federation’s military had begun to move into the multiple sectors compromising that segment of the universe, though who bore the quill - rather than the sword - would find themselves battling against everything that the Alliance stood against. How would they act when this species had stood the test of time, against all that sought to change their wicked insectoid ways? Would the quill turn once more into the sword, or would this world find itself on the cusp of a cultural revolution?
Objective Three: The Coin of Many Faces.
Kriselist. Eight centuries ago during the apex of the Galactic Civil War, the Galactic Empire had seen fit to teach the rebellious inhabitants a lesson which they would never forget. Dozens of stark white wedges within the clouded skies would bombard the world, glassing much of its surface and turning a majority of the insurgent population to nothing more than ashen echoes. Despite the devastation wrought by their would-be oppressors, the Rebellion survived. As they clambered from the ruins, they were embraced by the loving arms of the Rebel Alliance and slowly rebuilt over the course of that galaxy-spanning conflict. Now, mirroring the events of the past, the Vanguard - rogue elements of the One Sith and the First Order - have scorched the earth with the fury of their warships, leaving the Phoenician world much like it was then. Will the Federation and their beloved allies follow in their ancestor's path, and help the citizens of Kriselist rebuild?
Objective Four: Down the Darkened Path I Wander.
There are many worlds within this segment of space, and many stories yet untold. Settle yourself down by the fire, and tell us all a mighty tale.
_____________________________________________________So there you have it folks. The Objective list for our newest dominion. Granted, as I said in the Poll thread, those of you that are keen on acting as "Dungeon Masters" for each of the above objective - including one of your own design - the above list may change before the time comes for this little shindig to go live.
Which shall be this upcoming Friday, as I believe that'll give everyone some time to mull over their choice of objective, volunteer to act as a DM, or simply twiddle your thumbs while we get ready to try out a new method of Dominions that may very well become standard in the future if everyone enjoys it.
The listed terms and conditions for the third objective will be placed on the final product as a spoiler, so if you're an allied company that's looking to make a contribution to the reconstruction efforts of Kriselist, you'll find our terms and conditions there. Basically, post with us and we'll give you a major faction contract.
With that being said, I leave the floor open to anyone wishing to volunteer, comment and/or criticize. Feedback's always welcome!
