The Breakdown:

The Odan-Urr United Space Command or O.U.S.C. is the combined military force of Clan Odan-Urr and its associates, covering naval and ground forces, used to defend their home system and initiate policing actions. Originating in the wake of the Battle of Florrum, where the Kotahitanga-Unity Defense Force, Sentinel Network, and recruits from all corners of Brotherhood space who wished to join the fight against an oppressive Iron Throne formed to create the Odanite Expeditionary Force or O.E.F. Initially intended to serve a defensive role, it served as the Odanite military arm while the Sentinel Network acted as its main intelligence service. In the waning days of 41 ABY, under the guidance of a newly appointed Councilor of War, a series of new edicts were handed down through the ranks following a Fleet Review. These edicts attempted to solidify the core formation of the O.U.S.C., empower the Expeditionary Forces, and finalize the restructuring that had begun in 40 AB.

The Naval forces were greatly restructured during this time, their forces revitalized, and command structures revitalized from the top down. Crews or vessels that had remained idle or among other, forsaken, sections of the Clan's organization were modernized and brought up to speed. Fleet designations were settled, focusing on synergizing vessel strengths and weaknesses.

The Competition:

Commanding Officer, otherwise regarded as the commander of a ship, though they are often referred to as "the Captain" no matter their actual rank. Commanding Officers have primary authority over their unit, and are usually given a wide breadth to run the ship as they see fit, complying with Odanite and Vatali Law. For this, Commanding Officers have significant responsibilities including finances, equipment, and wartime conventions; duties to their higher authority, mission effectiveness, and care for their personnel; and powers including the use of force, discipline, and punishment of personnel (within the limits of military law).

As the O.U.S.C. prepares to deploy assets to Quermia the Second Expeditionary Strike Group has been determined as the most effective tool to aid the Jedi Temple's diplomatic mission if the situation on the ground turns hostile. Forces selected and Sailors deployed have been routed through the Councilor of War's personal datapad for review.

The competition is to help supply us with the relevant information in those dossiers to establish the characters going forward in this Campaign and to build a roster available for all future fiction!

  • Entries will be graded based on the depth of character design, how organic their histories come off to the grader, as well as incorporating the standard grading metrics found in the Fiction Grading Rubric.
  • Placing contestants will have their characters added as NPCs as Navigational Officers in the O.U.S.C. Navy.
  • Submissions should be in .PDF or .gdoc formats
