Imperial Looking for Work

I guess Nicademus Delvardus IV would be then the best person to help out here.
The Imperial Remnant got reformed into the First Order (though not the canonical one!), which means that there is an actual Empire with an Emperor existing, similiar to the Fel Empire in terms of structure. We hold the majority of the Deep Core regions and a good portion of systems around Muunilist.
Other than that I wouldn't be aware of any other splinter factions. Most of us Imperials joined up with Nicademus.

edit: Nic was faster.

Well, I guess I'm walking into a fairly storied organization then!

First off, thank you for the prompt reply. You don't know how refreshing it is to find an active Imperial presence on a site that isn't downright insane. Secondly, I guess that answers my requests for queries. If I might ask, what is the current state of your... organization? Government?

To best summarize everything:

First Order began after Muunilinst was ravaged by Mandalorians. As a result, the Imperials filled the void and turned the planet into a shining Imperial capital. Now is a story behind the Muuns being treated as secondary citizens, but that's because the IGBC attempted to assassinate Nicademus and he retaliated decisively. From there, the reunification of the Imperial Sector brings into contact with the Jedi Order's outpost on Dantooine, sparking the Third Galactic Civil War. The war doubles their territory with an expansion east in the northern parts of the Outer Rim and south to connect with the loyalist region in the Deep Core. This ends with it being in favor of the Imperials, but the treaty is still made on equal terms between the FO and the Galactic Alliance. Well, the GA isn't doing so good (it literally dies in terms of activity) so Nicademus goes about ending them once and for all in the recent Sacking of Mon Calamari.

Some of their other big achievements go along with the technological breakthroughs that the First Order, in Canon, experiences such as the presence of the Resurgent-class Battlecruiser in fleets, the new starfighters, Stormtrooper equipment, etc. We recently had our faction's new flagship be built, a heavily modified Executor-class Dreadnought. Plenty has been done and more can be done for sure!

Right now, the Empire is at peace (tentatively). The Emperor has announced his new Empress, the Grandmaster of the Imperial Knights, Faina Nikulin, as the previous one vanished (the writer has unofficially left the website it seems). Knights of Ren and Imperial Knights are not directly at each other's throats, but they don't like each other. In terms of his kids, Octavian, the twin of Fiora and heir of the Empire, has been promised to be trained as an Imperial Knight while his sister, Fiora, is promised to be trained as a Knight of Ren.

We are looking to start conflict again, but we are taking our time with planning that out with some factions. Particularly the Jedi Lords and the Corellian Coalition. Blackguard Reborn, our significant Sith faction, will likely be an enemy in the future (once an ally), but thankfully, Viox is taking his time with that. Best to say we are entering a Second Cold War perhaps.

============================

So whatever you want your Imperial to preoccupy in terms of profession and rank, I am sure we can easily figure it out! We will find your corner where your character can thrive! And pretty much, every character in the First Order will gladly help you in any way they can. Considering your surname, a certain Grand Admiral Garrick Needa would love to meet a descendant of Ardus Kaine.

Edit: Jenia has pointed directly to the threads that give more information, which should help a lot.

No problem! Garrick told me you had work in RL, so no worries there at all.

Hmmm, well right now, the Empire is at peace (because there really isn't anyone on their radar). The Emperor is more concerned with internal matters such as seeking to integrate the Knights of Ren further into the Empire, promoting people, family stuff, and elevating his new Empress. Where would you want your character to be? In the Navy? Research? Imp Intel?

Well we have some people that have dipped their hanss into military research. Garrick Needa and Ona Veed helped create some new warships and starfighters. I will let you in and say that the RPA is looking to expand our database to include ground vehicles and space stations, so opportunity there for future military research.

Could be credited with the development of the FO's newer weaponry and armor found on its Stormtroopers, like the F-11D blaster (which granted has a canon manufacturer, but the only one I have mentioned is Sienar-Jaemus). Could easily be that Blas-Sonn Corp is made up of Imperial loyalists that broke away from their parent companies and fled to Imperial space where you joined up with their new corporation. Give your guy some credit to stand upon and build up from.

As for other options: naval, army, commissariat, moffship, Imp Intel, uhhh... Thats all I can think of. Given you are a descendant of the Kaine family, maybe run some sort of military-controlled company or a rising star of sorts within the First Order.

Granted we have no RnD element in JvS (caused a lot of problems in the past), the custom ships entries do help compensate for that nonetheless. Not to mention that the First Order is gonna be getting more new stuff with upcoming media and literature.

As for rising star, could mean that he is gifted and talented at what he does so he is rising through the ranks rapidly. The surname Kaine may have given him foundations, but his work has propelled him upward.

Yeah all of the Tarkin based stuff is gone. First Order still has a military research division and all the manufacturers are under military control (save major canon companies like KDY as regulations on JvS forbid outright and direcr ownership of these companies to ensure their neutrality). But you can make up your own military company that has helped with the production of new technology for the Empire. Maybe helped with the development of some of our custom tech entries like the Vector and Demolisher.

We got plenty of planets. Could easily be a Moff and still run a military corporation for the Empire. As for what worlds you could set up on for both roles, here is a list with their Grand Moffs attached:

Central Oversector (Muunilinst Oversector) - Nicademus
- Muunilist (Capital)
- Bastion
- Yaga Minor
- Agamar (Jointly ruled with Allied Mandalorians of Clan Bralor)
- Mygeeto
- Garqi

Prakith Oversector - Soku/Soku Ren (Grand Moff)
- Prakith (Special Autonomous Zone)
- Foerost
- Khomm
- Aargau

Kuat Oversector - Aurel Pellaeon (NPC) (Grand Moff)
- Kuat
- Caamas
- Carida

Rendili Oversector - Ishild Sauer (Grand Moff)
- Rendili
- Balmorra
- Brentaal IV

Dubrillion Oversector - Merrik Piett (Grand Moff)
- Dubrillion (Imp Intel HQ)
- Dantooine

Bilbringi Oversector - Garrick Needa (Grand Moff)
- Bilbringi
- Adumar
- Corulag

Taris Oversector - Harlan Petrovsky (Grand Moff)
- Taris
- Arkania

Alright then! Moff of Corulag it is!

If you want, you can take a look at my fleet. I've never taken her for a test drive, but in theory she's pretty well rounded.
