Hello there!
As one might have noticed, I have taken it upon me to formulate a new faction based on the First Order aesthetics and ethics!
That being said though - without the Dark Side shenanigans. We definitely still have a fascist-militaristic-imperialistic state, but with a strong foundation of laws and values of order and justice (by any means necessary of course). So much for the rough setup.
What is interesting about it and what kind of characters will it accommodate?
- Imperial Characters (aka those that align with hierarchy, military, order)
- Ruthless, ambitious Characters (those that want to rule, want to gain influence and build a reputation)
- Noble Characters (Both by blood and yes, by virtue, nobles of Serenno (capital) and others are very welcome)
- Ruler Characters (Moffs, Warlords, Noble Rulers are all welcome to join the cloud as client-states)
- Soldiers (obvious! Shit goes boom!)
- Agents (Sneaky ISB people, spies, directors, you choose)
- Gray Force Users (the Imperial Praetorian Knights in red armour! No dogma, no code, just orders, commands and duties!)
- what can you think of?
Why First Order?
Why the First Order and not some Remnant, Tenth Galactic Empire or whatever is a very solid question. With the Fall of the Empire and Eternal Empire, one relatively neutral and one evil faction, a middle ground would be the First Order without the Dark side corrupted Supreme Leader or Force users attached to it. So essentially the First Order is the choice of appearance and structure but thematically it is a successor of the NIO, the Eternal Empire, the Fel Empire and of course, the First Order. A healthy dose of "any means necessary" with "justice prevails" and "down with the Sith and Jedi".
So there is a lawful, morale compass which is strictly allowing to sacrifice a city for a planet. The greater good above all else. And the Supreme Leaders word is final.
There is plenty of opportunity to create internal parties/factions, to start a client-state with own military looks in an auxiliary-style or to just embrace the First Order as the state which brings down chaos and anarchy, battles the religious zealots of Light and Dark and gives every soldier the opportunity to achieve in a skill and merit based military!
