Simulation Information & Galactic Records
18 BBY // THE REPUBLIC HAS FALLEN // THE EMPIRE RISES
Star Wars: Dark Days is an 18+ collaborative play-by-post roleplaying simulation set during the first years of the Galactic Empire.
The Clone Wars are over. The Jedi Order has been shattered. Palpatine's new Empire is tightening its grip upon thousands of worlds — but the galaxy has not yet become the one history remembers.
There is no Rebel Alliance. Not yet.
Resistance is scattered. Imperial institutions are still taking shape. Senators struggle to retain influence, former Republic personnel face uncertain futures, Jedi survivors remain hidden, and independent crews, criminals, bounty hunters and ordinary citizens are learning how to survive under the New Order.
ONE GALAXY // MANY STORIES
Dark Days is not centred upon a single ship, crew or faction. Stories can unfold aboard the Imperial IS Ravager, with the independent crew of the Wayfarer's Promise, within Imperial institutions, among the political elite, across the criminal underworld, or through ordinary inhabitants of the galaxy.
Our stories are character-driven. Missions and galactic events provide opportunities, but friendships, families, rivalries, careers, loyalties, ambitions and difficult choices give those events meaning.
You don't have to save the galaxy. You may serve the Empire, oppose it, profit from it, hide from it — or simply try to stay alive.
CANON IS OUR FOUNDATION
The established Star Wars galaxy provides the foundation for Dark Days. From that foundation, our players build their own characters and stories. We are not here simply to recreate the films — our characters should have room to matter and our shared continuity will grow as the simulation develops.
THE GALAXY IS CHANGING.
