THE MORELLIAN ENFORCERS
Brief History Following the Galactic Civil War:
Over a thousand years ago, the descendants of Barosa Warren and a colony of others fled the warring galaxy during the Yhuuzan Vong invasion to their ancestor's home-world of Morellia where, come-to-find, the species had not been extinct. Instead, they had thrived as a mecca of peaceful politics and self-sustainability. They had prospered, retaining their history of hardened survival skills. In an effort to bring the Morellian Weapons Conglomerate to the same technical level as other manufacturers in the galaxy-proper, agents were sent out to gain knowledge of ship-building, weapons design, armors, computer-systems, advanced metals, shielding, etc. Sworn to secrecy in regards to the location and existence of the Commonwealth, agents spread throughout the galaxy learning as much as they could and returning with detailed reports to Wild Space. Under the guise of being an extinct species, and with no one to hinder their progress, the Commonwealth and the Conglomerate thrived and innovated new technologies. They quickly changed their primary language to Galactic Standard Basic so that they may one day return the knowledge of their existence to the galaxy. Eventually, they did, only to find an inattentive Imperium in control.
Pirate elements quickly sought to gain control of a technologically powerful location in Wild Space. Defenseless and with no hope of rescue from it's governing body, the Imperium, small groups of outnumbered Morellian Enforcers launched a counter-offensive on the pirate elements and eventually, through bravery and quick-wit drove them off of Morellia for good. In an effort to seek security for their people, the Morellian Commonwealth has forged an alliance with the pockets of Rebellion throughout the galaxy, deputizing members of the rebellion to act on Morellia's behalf and likewise members of the Enforcers as soldiers for the Rebellion.
Mission Statement: "In an effort to unite the peoples under the galaxy against the magocracy: past, present, and future, the Morellian Enforcers will endeavor to destroy enemies of peace and maintain that peace under the banner of the common-person. With stark recognition that an abuse of power, force-assisted or otherwise will always lead to the coercion, cooption, subjugation, and oppression of the disenfranchised. No longer will we stand by as our galaxy succumbs to the wanton destruction brought upon it by zealots. We will stand, we will fight, we will die for the good of the layman."
Location:
Government: The Commonwealth as a political structure desires fairness and de facto representation of its people. It dictates the actions of the Enforcers.
Assets: With minimal resources at their disposal, The Commonwealth currently has no capital ships, corvettes or military power of any kind, with the exception of the Enforcer police force and a few freighters. Hence it's desire to ally with the Rebellion.

Location:
- Morellia: A Harshly, yet diversly, landscaped planet. Located in Wild Space and Capitol of The Morellian Commonwealth.
Government: The Commonwealth as a political structure desires fairness and de facto representation of its people. It dictates the actions of the Enforcers.
- Representatives: The body of the government. It's representatives are mandated to state whether they choose to run as delegates, or trustees when running for office. Two representatives of each district are elected. One as a Trustee, the other as a Delegate. Representatives gather in Parliament as The Assembly, where the combined votes of each district are equal. The two representatives of each district must agree on how to vote in order to ensure that the good of the people is at the heart of every decision. This is intended as a vehicle to cut down on political gridlock.
- The Speaker: The Head of the State. The Speaker is the Master of Ceremonies of all Assembly meetings in Parliament and moderates debates and decides when it is time for an item to be put to a vote. The Speaker is a rotating position and selected at random by, very simply, placing a group of names into a vessel, shaken, then the vessel is smashed on the center of the Parliament Assembly House's Chamber. The closest name to the Speaker's chair is the Speaker for one year. A mostly Ceremonial position, the speaker retains his right to vote but if at any time it seems that they are filibustering the meeting for means of favoring their personal political opinions a quick "vote of no confidence" may be motioned by any elected official in Parliament. The vote must be made without any debate, and quickly.
- The People and Popular Vote: The spirit government. If The Assembly cannot reach a decision, or the people of Morellia feel that they have been misrepresented can call for a vote of no confidence as well. Wherein, by means of a directly represented ballot-vote carried out by the Captain of the Enforcers, can vote The Assembly innefective. Should the Morellian people decide to cast this vote, the entirety of The Assembly is put on probation during a re-election. Any new parties wishing to run for offices as delegates or trustees may then vie for positions whereupon the previously undecided decision is decided upon. The floor of Parliament cannot be left until the new Assembly has come to a consensus.
- The Captain of the Enforcers: The arm of the government. The Captain of the Enforcers is the means by which all action dictated by the Commonwealth is enforced and carried out. The Captain is the leader of the armed forces, otherwise known as Morellian Enforcers. As per necessary this body cannot be democratic. It is a classic military structure where rank dictates decision. Ranks are awarded either by necessity or battlefield commission. No rank has a minimum or maximum number of positions. The Captain is afforded one vote in The Assembly. Should the Assembly lose faith in its captain, they too can call a vote of no confidence and award the position to whomever they see fit by a 3/4 majority.
- The Director: The legs of the Government. The Director of the Morellian Weapons Conglomerate is a position elected by the people's majority and a general election. He holds one vote in the Assembly equivalent to that of The Captain. The Director reports to The Speaker and the Captain who must all three agree on any course of action the military industrial complex is to take. The Director is in charge of proposing all new production to the Assembly by way of The Speaker. Since military decisions must be able to be made quickly and often this includes production of new weapons and materials the process must be streamlined. So as the people may still be voiced in such matters The Speaker has a veto to all matters regarding the Conglomerate. However, if The Speaker vetos the proposition then goes to The Assembly and is ruled upon by a general majority, where The Director and The Captain retain their votes in the Assembly.
Assets: With minimal resources at their disposal, The Commonwealth currently has no capital ships, corvettes or military power of any kind, with the exception of the Enforcer police force and a few freighters. Hence it's desire to ally with the Rebellion.
- Morellian Weapons Conglomerate
- Morellian Enforcers
MORELLIAN WEAPONS CONGLOMERATE
An arms manufacturer and ship-building entity designed to facilitate the defense of the Morellian Commonwealth. The Conglomerate is headed by The Director, who proposes new projects to The Assembly and must then have them approved by both The Captain of the Enforcers and The Speaker of the Assembly. The Conglomerate is new to ship-building and only has one prototype currently, The Shrike-Class Corvette:
http://www.thestarwarsrp.com/forum/index.php?threads/shrike-class-corvette.60876/
The Conglomerate's arms manufacturing focuses mainly on the production and distribution of high-powered slugthrowers, their staple Morellian .48 Enforcer has been in service for over a thousand years and has continued to be an almost unstoppable piece of hardware. Personal shields and body armor can do little to stop its penetrating power. However, this large weapon can only maintain a low magazine capacity.
They are developing a rifle carbine that focuses on using much smaller flechettes in an effort to drastically increase weapon capacity but maintain armor piercing power by increasing velocity.
THE MORELLIAN ENFORCERS
As the arm of the Commonwealth, the Morellian Enforcers act as a policing and, if/when necessary, war-making entity. Due to the harsh climates on Morellia, the Enforcers take survival extremely seriously and pride themselves on their ability to survive extended periods of time in almost all, if not most, environments. Rugged and gritty, the Enforcers are rare to waste time or words. Typically arming themselves with high powered slugthrowers, they loom over their adversaries even if they lack the height to do so. Since recent events, the Morellian Commonwealth has approved the deputization of non-morellians into the Enforcers with The Captain's recommendation. Recruiting for change and to support the ousting of the magocracy. The Enforcers assist with sound political insight when necessary. Enforcers pride themselves on the fact that they are citizen soldiers and very involved in the day to day politics of The Commonwealth and the greater Galaxy. By themselves they are skilled warriors, survivalists,
guerillas and pilots, the Enforcers are a force to be reckoned with. When united they are unstoppable. Determined and stalwart, they will not stop until justice is served upon the magicians and sorcerers that consistently wreak havoc on the galaxy.
