Brosi


Brosi, situated within the remote Thandon Cluster in the Corporate Sector, served as the original homeworld for the Brosin species. Positioned as the fourth planet within the Dostra system, it stood out as one of the rare homeworlds located inside the Corporate Sector's boundaries.

This world was a temperate, verdant forest planet, abundant with diverse indigenous flora and fauna. Brosi boasted a remarkable natural wonder: a series of cascading waterfalls that stretched over two kilometers in height. Furthermore, it contained significant natural deposits of both Zinsian, a desiccant preservative, and Hfredium.

Despite being the native habitat of the Brosins, a Near-Human sentient species, Brosi experienced settlement by Old Republic colonists centuries prior to the rise of the Galactic Empire. These settlers introduced Staplarints for use as mounts. However, the advent of repulsorlift technology rendered animal mounts obsolete, leading to the Staplarints' abandonment. Subsequently, they reverted to a feral state, freely roaming the countryside.

The discovery of Zinsian deposits prompted the Corporate Sector Authority to construct three Zinsian processing facilities (Delta 1, Delta 2, and Mailor). This endeavor resulted in the displacement of thousands of native Brosins, with many young male Brosins being coerced into hazardous extraction work by supervisors. This exploitation fueled the Brosins' animosity towards the Corporate Authority's governance.

Shortly after the initial plant commenced operations, the Brosin Underground emerged as a terrorist group dedicated to opposing the Corporate Authority's influence on Brosi. This organization was headed by Randle Clanse, a young, charismatic female Brosin renowned for distributing profits and equipment pilfered from the CSA.

The Security Police frequently employed by the CSA proved ineffective against the Brosin Underground due to their unfamiliarity with the planet's natural terrain. Supervisor Wasith, a commanding officer within the CSA, attempted to employ bounty hunters to eradicate the Brosin Underground from the Blan Forests, but these efforts also failed. At least one bounty hunter resigned, citing "inadequate support from CSA officers."

Although the Underground's aims seemingly aligned with those of the Rebel Alliance, their methodologies diverged so significantly that each faction regarded the other as a potential threat.
