It has only been a few months since word of the Imperial defeat at Yavin IV began spreading. Details are still sketchy, and no one seems to really know what happened, but the Rebel Alliance seems to have claimed a great victory. The Imperial response was quick though, and most pro-Rebel sentiment that sprouted up was ground down just as quickly as it rose up. Things seem to be settling back down.

Now you have all arrived on the colony of Ord Antalaha through fate, chance, or just plain bad luck. Ord Antalaha is a backwater world officially under the claim of the Empire, but it is largely ignored. It is actually controlled by various pirates who maintain an uneasy "peace" on the planet. Some of you had, and some still do, ties to the Rebels, Imperials, or other factions in galactic politics, but as many of you are on the run from the authorities or from your pasts, it is a good place to hide for a while or to look for a new job to hire on to.

Most of your characters will not know each other when the campaign starts. Depending on your backgrounds, some characters might end up knowing each other though. I've gotten character concepts from just about everybody, and I know the backstory or have heard general ideas from a number of you. Once I get your story I can work you into the plot more and give you more information on the game world that your character would know.
