Corellia: Using Up the Galaxy's Luck

Star Wars: Imperial Shadows MUSH (IS MUSH) is a text-based online roleplaying game set within the Corellian Sector during the Rebellion era of the Star Wars universe. For an introduction to MUSH games and how they are played, please refer to our "MUSH 101" guide.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...

Oh, Corellia. A world of intrepid independence, and at times vast indifference to the galaxy at large. Lady Luck herself may have wintered here, leaving a lingering yet long-lasting sense of her presence behind. A heady streak of wanderlust often draws those hailing from this world and its sector out and away, to adventure and profit, but sentiment ever calls them back. And it is not just those of Corellian ancestry that see the galaxy a little bit differently; whether Corellian, Drall, or any of that chorus of species that now call this region of space home, there is a unique thread that ties them together whether as friends or foes.

The Corellian Sector today is a focal nexus of soft Imperial power, the Emperor's will as iron-strong here as anywhere, and yet with just enough breathing space to lend a sense of self-governance to appease the strong-willed, while encouraging the rebellious. Loyalists abound, their allegiance shifted to the Empire and its ally the Corporate Sector Authority, and yet the Rebellion has found no shortage of friends here. The underworld thrives; pirates, cartels, and petty cutthroats all capitalizing on a galaxy that has grown reliant upon its illicit services. And yet, amidst all these competing powers, it is civilians that most directly brave an uncertain future.

Current Year: 1 BBY (Before the Battle of Yavin, prior to Episode IV: A New Hope). The Death Star has not yet been destroyed. The Empire is ascendant, and the black intrigue of Imperial Shadows make Corellia's future a murky, uncertain thing to foretell.
