Return to Kuat Sector

The Kuat System is the Capital system of the seven systems that make up the Kuat Sector.

Located near the great Galactic crossroad of the Coruscant system, it is one of the most frequented systems in the galaxy and home to over thirty billion people, as well as Kuat Drive Yards; owners of the numerous shipyards that produce a vast numbers of ships ranging from small fighters to the colossal Star Destroyers.

Kuat’s only sun maintains the circular orbit of the planets within the system, most of which are outside the habitable zone and therefore have extremely hot or cold climates, the exception being the planet Kuat, whose proximity to its star gives it a moderately temperate climate.

The system is also home to a number of platforms and luxury space colonies whose primary functions are the accommodation and entertainment of tourists. Despite the fact that Kuat is mostly focused on industry, the result being the creation of thousands of large corporations and a never-ending production of ships, the system has a lot to offer to visiting nature-loving explorers determined to discover unspoiled locations and beautiful landscapes which still hold a decent percentage of the surface of the planets below.

A Political Power Struggle

Kuat Drive Yards

It's no secret that the Kuat Drive Yards is one of the most important industrial complexes in the entirety of the galaxy, so it stands to reason that countless galactic citizens have tried to get their hands on a piece of the pie, hoping to reap endless rewards and riches. However, one Imperial agent sought to protect that in the face of overwhelming adversity and at great danger to herself. This is the story of Eisley Leandar.

Named after her birthplace, Mos Eisley, Leander grew up impoverished and struggling to survive along with her parents , who were part of a nomadic tribe that wandered the wastes of Tatooine. they survived by scaring up what little nourishment they could and often risking barter and trade with bandits, pirates, outcasts and even Tuscan Raiders for basic needs. When she was only ten years old, her parents succumbed to a fast spreading disease and was soon left to her own devices. Over the next few years she had to look after herself: stealing, scraping, and sometimes even killing in order to survive, but she would eventually find her calling on a planet far from the dusty desert she had been born. Fed up with the constant struggle of barely hanging onto life and the never-ending risk of death around every corner, she overheard there was an unregistered transport shuttle that was enroute to Coruscant. A Trandoshan pirate, who she regularly worked for stealing components from nearby junker shops, described a gleaming, planet wide city, full of soaring skyscrapers and endless opportunities for those hungry enough to find them. Hungry enough she was and through various deals she was able to sneak aboard the shuttle, one step closer to her destiny.

Over the next ten years of her life on Coruscant she ran with local gang members, thieves, murders, and gamblers, eventually landing herself in an Imperial correctional facility. Yet, her streetwise abilities, tactile negotiation skills, and the fact that she spoke nearly eight different dialects and languages caught the attention of local ISB agents, who released her on the condition she work for them. Quickly rising through the ranks and impressing even the most suspicious, resistant superiors, she would eventually come to be a senior agent within the Imperial Security Bureau, which would bring her face to face with the most important event of her life involving the Kuat Drive Yards and an Imperial Logistical Officer named, Commander Harken.

ISB Agent Eisley Leandar

It was the year 18 of the galactic timeline, when Kuat Drive Yards was in the middle of doing a major overhaul of their facilities, updating systems and modules with the latest processing units and amenities. Investors from all over the galaxy wanted to be the first to offer up lucrative deals, contractors from every corner of Imperial space went into bidding wars, and the Galactic Empire was busy enforcing new policies that would put tighter limitations on where materials and workers were sourced. It was controlled chaos, which was the perfect time for opportunists to slip in under the radar, hoping to score big. Agent Eisley was tasked with overseeing the internal security of the facility, ensuring that Imperial Officers followed protocol and correctly implemented the new restrictions. It was no easy task. The sheer size of the project that was being undertook meant security concerns were everywhere and she had to double the size of her team in order to keep up with the demands.

It was early morning and Agent Eisley was always one of the first to rise aboard the station. She knew this, because she made personal routine inspections of each section of the facility every week and mentally notated who was where and what business they were engaged in. Only a few others shared the corridors with her in the wee hours of the day, Commander Harken, the stations logistical operations officer, his assistant Lieutenant Price and a few maintenance crewmen who were responsible for routine checks on the facilities anti-fire systems.
