SWTOR Roleplay Character Archive for the Star Forge Server

The Star Forge Archive is a SWTOR roleplay archive designed to accomplish the following:

• Catalog original roleplay characters from the Star Forge server

• Index allegiance classifications (Republic, Empire, Independent, and other affiliations)

• Position characters within the SWTOR timeline (3653–3620 BBY)

• Preserve roleplay continuity through structured documentation

• Provide long-term discoverability beyond temporary platforms

Each dossier includes the following elements:

• Character name

• Allegiance classification

• Era placement within the SWTOR timeline

• Background summary

• Political and factional context

• Status designation

• Timeline continuity notes

Each entry functions as a documented roleplay identity within SWTOR continuity.

The Character Registry functions as a searchable index of SWTOR roleplay character dossiers submitted by players on the Star Forge server.

This section allows players to:

• Browse Republic, Empire, Independent, and Force-aligned characters

• View faction distribution across the Star Forge server

• Locate characters by name

• Review lore-aligned character summaries

• Explore character placement across major SWTOR expansions

The registry supports character discovery and continuity reference.

Understanding SWTOR chronology is essential for accurate character placement.

The Timeline and Lore Reference provides a structured breakdown of:

• The Treaty of Coruscant (3653 BBY)

• Major expansion events (Rise of the Hutt Cartel, Shadow of Revan, Knights of the Fallen Empire, Knights of the Eternal Throne, Onslaught, Legacy of the Sith)

• Political shifts between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire

• Mandalorian fragmentation and Alliance-era political developments

The SWTOR playable timeline spans approximately 3653–3620 BBY, roughly 3,600 years before Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope.
