How is this contest going to work?
Players may submit world overviews for the worlds KUAT and RIENNA. Development staff will select the aspects we like best and combined them into the final world overview. Players will be credited for any of their work that is selected.
The planets will be described at the end of this post. Please reply here with any questions so that other players can benefit from the answers.
What kind of submissions are you looking for?
The Byss Planet Overview is a good place to start but we would like to see even more detail in your submissions. We would like you to tell us about general history, fauna, climate, notable towns, culture, and geographical locations. Also tell us how the world will interact with the larger game.
What we are looking for is a comprehensive vision of the world, what life will be like there, and what players will experience there. You don't have to use a particular format. Just tell us about the world you are creating and make sure your submission is organized enough that we can understand it.
Feel free to add more details than the ones we have listed here!
How many submissions will you accept?
Celly is limited to three submissions per planet and each of his submissions has a four page limit (MS word, double space, 12 pt font, Courier New). Anyone else can make an unlimited number of separate submissions per planet at any length. We won’t mind as long as you try to produce something of quality each time.
What is the deadline for submissions/Where do I send them?
Have them in to me (@mail T) by June 10th, 2009. I'd give you new time but we need to get started on construction.
What is Rienna like?
Rienna is a farmland world dominated by a great river. It is relatively rich but low in resources. Its economy is based on organics. It is a civilized world but its people may be –slightly- odd in some way. Rienna became the home of the Mon Calamari after their old home world was rendered uninhabitable but they don’t necessarily dominate it politically. It is a Republic world.
What is Kuat like?
Kuat is not a Republic world nor is it a Duros world. The Trandoshans “reconquered” the world at some point after the emperor’s death and now the Duros live a nomadic life on board a fleet of factory and mining ships. It uses a Representative form of government.
Kuat Drive Yards no longer exists as we know it. This could be because it was a prime military target in the greatest period of turmoil the galaxy has ever known or you could invent another reason.
Kuat’s economy is based on heavy industry and private mining.
Keep in mind that Kuat is a neutral world that will probably see a lot of play. It is one place where even well known Republic and Imperial officers can interact socially.
