Tetan Civil Authority

While officially an Imperial successor state the Tetan Civil authority would balk at such claims. The goal of the organization is to finally achieve the ancient Tetan dream of becoming the preeminent culture of the galaxy, and as such it strives to exert maximum pressure on the worlds of the core and deep core. Uniquely among warlord states, it is an oligarchy, with a council formed of its top one percent, known as the Korostad, governing domestic policy. Meanwhile its economics and military are run by its former Moff and vice admiral, who threw their support behind the popular revolution against Imperial rule when it began. The traditional figurehead ruler is represented by the Empress of Teta, in this case Angela Kito

The Tetan Authority has some loose alliances with the Imperial Remnant, including allowances for trade to pass through into fortress worlds in the Deep Core, in exchange for taxation. However, rumors are that the Tetan customs ships are known to do more than routine inspections, supposedly stealing whole vessels from the Empire’s failing grip

Backstory:
While the Emperor’s corpse was still warm the winds of revolution were flaring in the Tetan system. An old enemy of Coruscant, and member world of the CIS during the Clone Wars, the Tetans were no friend to rule from Coruscant. Even the Moff in charge of the sector, Rix Illian, was not known to be the most loyal of Palpatine’s caucus. The systems Vice Admiral, a native born Tetan with the name of Gustav Ludendorf was similarly displeased with Coruscant. When news of the Emperor’s demise reached the deep core, and the Tetan people learned of the scattering of Death Squadron, the nobility and merchant classes of Teta declared their ultimatum, a new Tetan state free from Imperial control. To their surprise, not only did Rix and Gustav agree to their terms, but helped them seize control of the Imperial task force in control of the Tetan system, including the Bellator SSD which was undergoing refits to serve as a communications ship in the Byss defense force. With the Tetan navy under their control, and nearby systems with sizeable estates under the Nobles pledging allegiance the Tetan Civil Authority was born.

Vice Admiral Ludendorf, keeping his former rank, vowed to take control of the new Tetan first fleet, and advance the Tetan interests across the galaxy, Moff Rix on the other hand, took up a position as Secretary of Economic Development, putting him in command of the vast logistics chains keeping the city world of Teta running. A new electoral body of Nobles, the Korostad was formed to run the local government and handle all internal affairs, while ministers appointed by that board ran certain segments of the planet.

Soon the Tetan shipyards were back online, cranking out more Vigil class escorts for the fleet, and beginning construction of a new type of warship using Adegan crystals seized from a convoy meant for Byss during the revolution. Recusant cruisers, from the personal fleets of some of the wealthiest merchant families also joined the force, lending their antiquated but powerful firepower to the new Navy.

The first actions of the new navy were to intercept and destroy an Imperial task force sent to reconquer the system only a month after Endor. The enemy consisted of five ISDs and assorted escorts. They were destroyed with little to no losses on the Tetan side, and this was cause for celebration among the Tetan forces.

Now, with their borders secure and preparations underway for a major campaign, it is anyone’s guess as to the next intentions of the Tetan forces.

Victory 3 class star destroyer:
a refit undergoing just before the battle of Endor, this project attempted to upgrade the aging VSD 1s to the standard of the VSD 2 model. The resulting ship combined the heavy missile firepower of the VSD 1 with the speed and additional shielding of the VSD 2, resulting in a powerful model of the craft.

Strigida class stealth cruiser:
An extremely powerful heavy cruiser built in absolute secrecy deep in the Tetan dockyards, this ship is the cinch pin in the Tetan naval strategy. While having only light armour and shields, and little to no point defense or conventional turbolasers, this craft is equipped with an extremely experimental cloaking device stolen from shipments to the Emperor’s personal vaults on Byss. However, due to the shield baffling nature of this device the Strigida must lower the cloak to fire its main weapons, 30 high power, long range concussion missile launchers. Alongside those weapons the Strigida has 7 Medium Turbolaser turrets, and five-point defense cannons. While 25 basic hulls have been completed of the class by this point, only four mount the experimental cloaking device, and the others are in various states of completion, awaiting mainly a new supply of Adegan crystals. Only 3 others are crewed at this point.

Weapons: 6x Dual MTLs, 30x long range concussion missile tubes, 5x Point Defense Cannons.

Crew: 2, 000 enlisted, 900 boarding troops, 500 specialist gunners, 50 engineering specialists

Hyperdrive rating: 4 while in cloak, 1.6 while without cloaking device

Communications: While in cloak communications are limited to a 30 light minute toghtbeam, while out of cloak it mounts a powerful Holonet transponder.
