The Parliament of Autonomous Systems
As you may no doubt be aware there is a New Faction that is in the making!!!
The Parliament of Autonomous Systems which is a exciting take on an old star wars classic the Confederacy of Independent Systems which was made before on chaos but had different overall aesthetic compared to the original one. Basically the new faction is a collection of systems breaking away from the traditional mold of the current galactic powers to defend their own planetary interests through diplomacy or force of arms if necessary's. Although it does have some key aspects of the New Imperial Order/Empire to formulate a democratic state with overall imperial characteristics.
Although the faction is just getting started I wanted to really focus on internal stories such as the way that citizens actually live in the galaxy instead of ignoring them as basically "fluff" material for posts. For example how would an average citizen of the Parliament view the faction going to war? Would they accept the reality of conflict or wish to settle things diplomatically if possible. Each action taken would have consequences on public opinion.
Some might ask if this faction will be an "evil" faction or a good "faction" but that is really hard to say at this point in time. If the Faction wishes to ally with the Mandalorian Enclave for example against another hostile faction on the board then you might lump them into the "evil" or "neutral" side of things depending on if your character is in said faction. And vise versa if they aligned with the alliance against the sith for example.
Some Faction Options for your Character
- The Standing Parliament:
- The Standing Parliament is the Legislative Center for the Parliament of Autonomous Systems. They are the 'Government' in a sense and pass laws and other such things that affect the entire faction as a whole. Encouraging each member to interact with one another in both public and private threads.
- The Parliamentary Armed Forces:
- The Parliamentary Forces are the Military Branch of the Autonomous Systems. They are responsible for defending and claiming territory although they are split into two overall branches the Expeditionary Forces and the Defense Forces which will have different roles. Included within this is the Intelligence Agency.
- The Corporate Angle
- Like the CIS, The Corporations play a key part in the Parliament as they prop up the faction with industry. They actually hold a considerable amount of power, allowing them to sway certain things such as laws and where the military should strike next. Giving them a good amount of threads both public and private.
