Datacron faction
Empire
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 consequences... you are "opting in" for PvP. 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.
PvP Expectations
As a villain, engage in reasonable PvP as expected in Star Wars yet in a way that makes for a good LARP story. For example, you learn that a Character is a Rebel, you are expected to react appropriately using forms of consequences as defined in the RULEBOOK. That Player has "opted in" for PvP by choosing to play a Rebel and they are expecting the Empire to react.
The Empire Faction is not an excuse to kill Characters on a whim. Explore those Consequences before permanently removing a Character from play. Character Death is best when there's an amazing story for everyone involved to tell afterward.
LOYALTY
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.
Objectives
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!
Empire on Selvaris
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.
Imperial Ranks
The ranks on this chart is canon EXCEPT the Inquisitorius column is written by Galaxy Awaits.
