− | As remote and secretive as the distant star system from which they emerged, the Chiss species remains a mystery to most of the galaxy, completely removed from the Republic and the Empire, these blue-skinned humanoids evolved an advanced civilization known as the Chiss ascendancy in the unknown regions of space. |
+ | As remote and secretive as the distant star system from which they emerged, the Chiss species remains a mystery to most of the galaxy, completely removed from the Republic and the Empire, these blue-skinned humanoids evolved an advanced civilization known as the Chiss ascendancy in the unknown regions of space. Despite constant political power struggles among the ruling class, the ascendancy maintained strict controls over its dominion and the civilization prospered. This is how the Chiss developed socially and technologically in isolation for thousands of years... Until they were discovered by the Sith Empire. |
During the late days of the Empire's exile, the Sith came into contact with the Chiss, and what followed was unique even in the annals of Imperial history. In every previous instance where the Empire had encountered an alien civilization with enough technology and resources to defend itself, the Empire demanded surrender and capitulation to the rule of the Emperor. Each civilization refused and the Sith conquered their worlds and killed or enslaved the inhabitants. The power struggles of the ascendancy are rarely solved with force of arms, however, and the Chiss ruling class surprised the Empire by considering the offer on its merits and asking for a summit. The Empire's military leadership, confused, agreed. |
