The Northland Islands is small collection found in the northwest hemisphere of Yridia II. A strong, warrior like people they have been some of the most loyal to Tarentum and regularly had their sons and daugthers enlist with the Tarentum military. However, when their dead began returning from Korriban, a plague came with it and their population was the worst hit. Talks of rebellion evolved into action, as the islands inhabitants destroyed the government offices in their region and drove out any of their supporters. However, before the government or their Tarentum overlords could respond to the rebellion; communication from the island chain was disrupted in the middle of the night. The next day scouts from nearby fleet carriers and imaging from the Tarentum navy have reported fires burning uncontrollably across the region, yet neither party has yet to spot any enemy or civilian movement.

The Office of the Consul has not been impressed by their "allies" in the Yridian government. Time and time again they have fumbled over keeping their relationship with Tarentum secret, and with the crisis in Northland being a complete PR disaster already...it may be time for some new management. Yet, the opposition to date has been reluctant to join forces. Tarentum didn't become rulers of the system just to let these peasants take back what we conquered - rather than strongarming them though, it's time to use their secrets against them.

Create a profile of one of the opposition leaders, it can be a party leader or a rising star in their ranks. Detail their background, education, what got them into politics, and define their views as an anti-Tarentum politicians. Finally, find the dirt in their life. What can we use against them? Afterall, blackmail is the best way to be diplomatic.

Entries will be judged on creativity, content, spelling and grammar, as well as how well the profile is formatted (We will be transferring chosen entries over to the wiki so format it like a wiki article - minus the coding).
