Empress Teta
Empress Teta was a city-planet located in the outer shell of the galaxy's Deep Core, at the terminus of the Koros Trunk Line directly galactic south of Coruscant. With over half its landmass covered by its capital Cinnagar, and vast reserves of carbonite that made the backbone of Empress Teta's economy, the planet was the center of galactic civilization in the Deep Core. While officially a monarchy, the Mining Guild held the true power on the planet in the post-Unification era as the stores of carbonite on the planet gave them the advantage of setting galactic prices on the valuable commodity. Due to the reliance on carbonite economically, mines dotted the surface of the planet and the cityscape, and had at one point threatened to completely shatter the environment of the world. The discovery of the valuable substance on the other six worlds of the Empress Teta system enabled the Mining Guild to do much of its business offworld, allowing the nonurbanized areas of Empress Teta to avoid the environmental damage that befell the other worlds of the system. Where the city had not grown, some areas of wildlife remained, including forests and plains.
In addition to the carbonite stores, Empress Teta was a major source of andris spice within the Core. An authorized supplier of the spice, andris' primary function was as a cure for hibernation sickness, a side effect that befell ancient colonists that had been frozen in carbonite on sleeper ships once they were woke from their slumber. Like most controlled substances, the criminal element on the planet had discovered a way to make andris spice a powerful stimulant and sought ways to sell it on the black market. This criminal problem was an issue until the rise of the Galactic Empire, which stamped out much of the black market dealers. Traffic in the planet's skylanes and orbit was controlled centrally from the Cinnagar Space Traffic Control tower. Cinnagar Control directed ships leaving orbit, arranged for repairs to returning vessels, and kept wanted vessels and those taking unauthorized action in line with its own defense force of Koros Spaceworks interceptors.
Empress Teta was a wealthy and fashionable world, typical of the many affluent planets in the galactic core, only slightly behind Coruscant itself in the amenities it offered. The ornate artistry of the world's architecture was admired, much of it having arisen in the reconstruction that followed the Great Hyperspace War. Galactic-class museums, fine restaurants, and boutiques attracted tourists and local aristocrats; all of whom flocked to Empress Teta's gems of history and luxury. While most Tetans who lived in the Core District of Cinnagar were accustomed to living in luxury, those who lived outside of the Core District of Cinnagar lived a working-class lifestyle. Nobles on the planet traced their ancestry back to the legendary Empress Teta herself; though some historians questioned her actual existence by the rise of the Galactic Empire. Lesser nobles possessed a share of the Mining Guild's activity in the system, allowing them to amass great fortunes.

IC Sympathies tend towards:
Type of RP and/or SL's likely to be found:
- Open RP: Follows all rules of the Universe, visitors welcome
- Closed RP: Follows most rules of the Universe, but some particular rules apply. Visitors should ask about how the RP works, but are still welcome.
- Private RP: Follows most rules of the Universe, some particular rules may apply. Visitors are asked to PM the players/writers before jumping in, out of courtesy.
- Planned SL: RP scenario is set up in advance, but ending is unknown. Visitors should read the story so far and/or PM to avoid faux pas in the scenario.
- Scripted SL: The ending of the RP scenario is already planned. Visitors are asked to PM the players/writers before jumping in, out of courtesy.
Specific Scenarios: Varies
- Large battles, fleet or army
- Duels/dogfights
- IC training for the character
- OOC training in RP technique
- Non-combatant personal storylines (Romance or adventure, general character building)
- Non-combatant large storylines (planetary affairs such as business)
Suggestions and/or rule variations for this planet:
- Suggested to PM Nicademus Delvardus IV if you desire to roleplay on this planet. Nicademus Delvardus is the Emperor of the First Order.
- Alternatively, PM Harnan Ren as he is both Grand Moff of the Deep Core Oversector and Master of the Ren.
What to expect as a new RP arrival wanting to write here:
- New players are welcomed to join in any roleplays. However it is suggested to PM any players you wish to roleplay with beforehand.
- New players may PM any players involved on the planet to ask for a way to hop in.
- Jedi/Lightsiders WILL be treated with hostility IC.
Any major factions/chars/places of interest that have been RPed here:
- During the existence of the Deep Core Remnant, Empress Teta played a significant role as one of the major sources of industry, revenue, and manpower for the localized power. Among it's great contributions included the native, Faina Nikulin, the current Empress and Grandmaster of the Imperial Knights
- It was untouched by the recent galactic conflict, yet has remained near the borders of the First Order
- A peaceful visit by the Emperor resulted in a smooth transition for the sector to join the Empire. It is known that the Emperor did not desire a war, for Empress Teta was a jewel that needed to be preserved.
