The Galactic Empire is the oppressive dictatorship controlling the main government of the galaxy, the Senate, with the ultimate goal of controlling all worlds. Thus, the Empire engages in all forms of planetary take-over tactics under the guise of bringing 'peace and order' to the galaxy.
Choosing the Empire Faction is choosing to play the villain and deal out consquences. Your Character will have enemies. Expect to be treated with disdain by other Characters, and expect them to actively plot against your Character. Of course, this is In-Game character vs character, and is not against you personally.
The Empire Faction is not an excuse to kill Characters on a whim. Explore other forms of consequences as defined in the RULEBOOK before permanently removing a Character from play. Character Death is best when there's an amazing story for everyone involved to tell afterward.
Choosing the Empire means you are committed to playing a Character loyal to the Empire. The traitor-turncoat concept has been overplayed. The Empire Faction needs loyal members to function properly in the game.
The Empire Faction has Objectives to complete each event! Each completed Objective is worth Credits paid to all Faction members regardless of individual participation. Collaborate with your teammates to earn additional rewards for completing all Objectives in an event!
The planet Selvaris, where Galaxy Awaits takes place, enjoyed a few years of peace after the founding of the Galactic Empire. However, rumors persisted of Jedi and rebels hiding on the remote forested world eventually leading to the appearance of Imperial forces on Selvaris. The Imperial presence is not fully funded by the full might of the Empire, thus is minimal with a battalion stationed in the capitol city, Caru, and small outposts found in certain towns and villages.
Corox Station, where the Galaxy Awaits campsite represents, is home to an outpost designated IOP-554298, or Imperial Outpost of Corox Station. The locally stationed Imperials are tasked with rooting out rebels and Jedi, of course, but also to maintain and grow Imperial presence and control over the area. The Outpost is a cluster of cabins at the campsite marked with Imperial flags.
The ranks on this chart is canon EXCEPT the Inquisitorius column is written by Galaxy Awaits.
As a politician, you write legislation that benefits the Outpost. You may submit new laws, manage permits, become an Elected Official, write press briefings and create Empire propaganda, act as an attorney during court, campaign for funds, and other such activities.
COMPNOR is primarily about presenting the Empire in a positive light and engaging with the people. By choosing this Role, you may find it easy to interact with other Characters in- and out- of the Empire.
As a soldier in the Imperial Navy, Imperial Army, or Stormtrooper Corps, plot and engage in combat, as needed, on behalf of the Empire. Ranking officers also assist in the Outpost's daily operations.
The Imperial Military are known for dealing out consequences, and are generally disliked. By choosing this Role, your Character may find interacting with other Characters outside the Empire difficult.
As a Force-user trained in the Dark Side, you handle matters of the Force for the Outpost. Deal with Jedi and other Force-users, recruit Force-sensitives, and manage Relics and Rituals.
Inquisitors are known for mercilessly dealing out consequences and are the most feared Imperials. By choosing this Role, your Character will have the most difficulty interacting with other Characters outside the Empire.
As a spy, you provide intelligence and counterintelligence for the Outpost. Engage in espionage to obtain information, disrupt the enemy. Ensure loyalty by rooting out enemy spies and dissidents in the Empire Faction.
Undercover ISB Agents are meant to adopt a persona to easily interact with other Characters. Uniformed Agents are generally distrusted, even by other Imperials who don't like Loyalty Agents. By choosing this Role, and whether your undercover or not, you may find interacting with other Characters difficult.
