..:: The Outer Rim Imperium ::.."Let it be known that no one defies the Imperium"---------------------------------------------------------------------------------..:: Overview ::..---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Outer Rim Imperium is a loose confederation of individual Warlords and Crime Lords; ranging from simple Mercenaries to harden Criminals. This loose confederation was brought about upon the simple concept that they could either gain power separately and fight among themselves, or they could join together and take advantage of the power vacuum left by the collapse of the Lords of the Fringe and the Omega Protectorate.
Though while they agree to work together, this loose confederation acts more like a Kratocracy, in which the strongest among them reign; with this often causing internal strife. Those whom rise to power have done so through physical force, social maneuvering or political cunning as the means to secure their positions. However the are not without guidance, and often it is the Supreme Sector Lord whom ensures that even while the Imperium is factional and prone to chaos, that it does not tear itself apart.
As such, while the various Sector Lords and System Lords plot and devise schemes in order to further their own goals, the Supreme Sector Lord is capable of uniting the individual bickering powers and guide them towards a common enemy. For while the Imperium may fight among itself, those petty grievances are put aside in the face of an external or internal threat that would otherwise be capable of destroying the Imperium if they remained fighting.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Outer Rim Imperium has shifted from a Political Organization to that of a Criminal Syndicate.
This change was done due in part to it being brought up that perhaps the Imperium had not been "Star Warsy" enough, as well as the potential that its initial design was pushing others away rather than pulling them towards the Faction.
While the Imperium is now a Criminal Syndicate, much of what made the Imperium what it was still remains. The ideals of creating a high decentralized faction that put control in the hands of the members rather than in the hands of a few remain. While there is a Governing body consisting of a High Council of Sector Lords led by the newly established rank of Supreme Sector Lord, these positions are intended more to see to the external threats that the faction may face.
