DEFIANCE ARMADA
The history of Defiance Armada can be traced as far back as the fall of the Galactic Alliance. Though many in the Alliance retreated and went into hiding after the loss of the Battle of Coruscant, for almost ten years after the fall, the remnants of the Galactic Alliance fought staunchly against the Sith Imperium in a lengthy war of attrition. Though many remarkable deeds were achieved in that time, chief among them is the story of Defiance Squadron - the precursor to the later armada that took its name.

Formed by a ragtag group of freedom fighters, each member of Defiance Squadron joined for various reasons, but stood united under a single banner. Led by the former Jedi Council member, Kara Vaalki, Defiance Squadron engaged the advancing forces of the Sith Imperium on several worlds, slowing the advance of the Imperial war machine and buying precious time for retreating defenders. After numerous losses in the face of an aggressive and superior force, Defiance Squadron eventually managed to turn the tide at the famous Siege of Manaan, a prolonged conflict that resulted in the death of most of the force's members, but which resulted in buying the defenders of Manaan enough time to build a fleet in secret, eventually pushing back the Imperium and achieving freedom for the Selkath, Mon Calamari and Quarren of Manaan for years to come.

After the siege, Defiance Squadron's numbers were severely diminished, and shortly after the group disbanded, each member seeking a new path to fight the Imperium in their own unique way. However, a second Imperial invasion of Manaan proved to be a flashpoint, as freedom fighters, defending against the invaders once more, found themselves banding together to fight a common foe. This brief moment of absolute unity proved to be a pivotal moment - Kara Vaalki, former leader of Defiance Squadron and fresh from killing a Dark Council member, announced to the assembled forces that the Defiance name would be invoked once more - not as a squadron, but as an armada.

Defiance Armada is a final, desperate alliance with one goal, and one goal only - the destruction of the Imperial Throne. Open to any freedom fighter with the will and the drive to break the Imperium once and for all, the armada is comprised of a vast number of soldiers, mercenaries and civilians. Members are provided the means to fight the Imperium - be it blasters, vibroblades, or hastily fitted laser cannons for vessels. While the bulk of the forces are comprised of citizen and privateer forces, the core forces of Defiance Armada come from hardened militaries - volunteer forces from the Hutt Cartel, Galactic Rebellion, and even organizations such as the Jedi Order and Dark Jedi of the Bogan have pledged their commitment to the armada.

This force stands ready to invade the Imperium, drive deep into her very heart, and utterly destroy the dark leadership, once and for all.
