HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Every 100 years, the "Stellar Convergence" occurs, aligning celestial bodies, creating vivid skies, tidal waves, and temporary portals. This event is awe-inspiring but can be dangerous, offering great power or causing chaos. The Sun Star Order plays a key role in guiding and protecting Centerra during this time, reinforcing the planet's deep cosmic connections and the importance of balance.
Centerra was found by explorers during the Expansion Era and became home to different groups seeking a new start. Conflicts between these groups led to instability. The Sunstar Order helped bring peace, and the Oligarchy, with representatives from all groups, was set up to govern and keep peace. The Council of Elders aids in decision-making, with the Lord Protector leading. Despite ups and downs, Centerra stands as a symbol of unity.
Important Note / Disclaimer:
In Centerra, various groups see the Force as connections or cosmic energies, echoing the Ewoks' mystical view. Considered magical, the Force significantly shapes the planet's cultures. Force anomalies reveal Centerra's close ties to the Force. Elements like the Stellar Convergence emphasize the balance between the Force and life, adding a distinct touch to this fictional setting.
