IMMEDIATE SETTING INFORMATION
YEAR: Great Re-Synchronization, year 9
After centuries of peace, the Galactic Republic has fallen into turmoil.
A former-Jedi and nobleman from the Outer Rim planet of Serenno - Count Dooku - has initiated a Separatist movement, spurring thousands of sovereign star systems to break away from the galactic governing body of the Republic.
Chancellor Sheev Palpatine has been a just and benevolent public servant of the common good for 10 years now, but it seems as though a civil war is imminent between the Republic and the Separatists.
Meanwhile, the Outer Rim planet of Moraband is under the control of the Commerce Guild and is used as a manufacturing and mining hub. Out in the deserts of Moraband, in the bones of an ancient Sith Temple, a man called Brother Xaos fosters a secretive community in the ruins of that ancient temple.
He and the other Masters, as you must call them (only THEY may call each other Brother or Sister), are training people of varying Species in the ways of the Dark Side of the Force. Before your arrival here, you had known the Sith to be dead. Extinct. Gone. Thousands of years gone! But here they apparently are...
And here YOU are, too. Along with more than a dozen others. Many of them were abducted. Some sold to the Masters as slaves. And a few came here willingly, under the promise of being among the original few who would revive the Dark Brotherhood of the Sith...
PLANET: Moraband - The sole planet of the Horuset System, this remote, foreboding place is desolate, hellish, and dangerous. It is characterized by frigid desert expanses, bounded by mountains and canyon-lands, with occasional brackish, caustic swamps being the main stores of water and wetlands.
Some of its more dangerous inhabitants - besides The Masters - are beasts like the Shyrack and of course the Terentateks which have an unnatural craving for the blood of Force sensitives.
LOCATION: Ancient Sith Temple - the Masters keep you all crowded in the crumbling and dusty hallways of the Temple. The constant freezing cold is enough to drive one from the place, but the realization that it is only colder and less hospitable beyond it's walls is enough to drive even the most desperate, back.
There are only half as many Masters as there are Learners, and a similar number of servants to them, but with the harsh landscape of Moraband, there is little need for additional security.
Learners have tried to flee, it's not hard, but in every case, the Masters have managed to retrieve the corpses, displaying for all to see that it was not violence that lead to their deaths.
