Description:

Space Opera is a role playing Game set in a mythical Republic in the 31st
Century.

Players take on the role of characters with-in the Republic.

The Republic itself is best though of as a benevolent government, imagine
the Star Wars Episode 1 Republic, in all it�s grandure, 30 years after
having defeated the Sith and their Dark Side of the Force allies, but
having paid a great cost in  having achieved the victory.  The Republic is
still is seen as strong, but is fraying at the edges.

The borders of the Republic are aflame with encroaching empires attempting
to gain advantage. It is as if the lifeblood of the Republic is
withdrawing from it�s limbs [ Rim Sectors] , towards it�s more vital areas
[ Core Sectors] and heart [ Capital].

It is into this maelstrom, that the PC arrives. You have arrived on the
planet that is the Capital of the Republic, with little more than their
wits, a desire to seek fame, fortune, learning and adventure. Having
arrived with the a small amount of credits, provided by their family,
savings etc� the planet beckons .
