Independent
IN-GAME DATE
May 5, 10 AFE (9 BBY)
Faction Status: PUBLIC
The planet Selvaris, where Galaxy Awaits takes place, enjoyed a few years of peace after the founding of the Galactic Empire. Thanks to rumors of rebels and Jedi, the Empire has established a presence on Selvaris which only served to generate minor conflicts... that many Independent individuals and groups have capitalised on.
Corox Station, where the Galaxy Awaits campsite represents, is known to have small Imperial Outpost and an active rebel cell... a perfect atmosphere for bounty hunters and merchants, criminals, and politicians working for Selvaris, Corox Station, or themselves.
