Explore the history behind StarForgeRP’s shared setting, from significant Star Wars: The Old Republic developments to events established through community roleplay. Use these references to place a character’s experiences in time, understand the circumstances of an earlier period, or trace consequences that still matter.
Begin with the destination that answers your question. The section preserves selected history with continuing relevance to characters, places, organizations, and stories.
What is true now? Find the shared present, adopted SWTOR story baseline, and conditions shaping contemporary roleplay. This is the starting point when a character’s circumstances depend on recent developments or consequences that remain unresolved.
What was a historical period like? Explore the political, military, and everyday circumstances surrounding earlier lives. Use this context to consider how a character’s home, work, education, or relationships might have been affected by change.
When did events happen? Follow their dates and relative order, including placements identified as approximate, reconstructed, or established only in sequence. Use this reference when checking a background, comparing events, or connecting community history with the wider chronology.
What did a turning point change? Read about selected events, their immediate outcomes, and their continuing significance. Follow the connections to surviving consequences, affected people and places, and detailed records where available.
SWTOR history and StarForgeRP-created events contribute to the shared setting without having the same source. Continuity & Canon explains their relationship, the use of compatible Legends material, and the treatment of interpretation and branching outcomes.
An event may be established even when its exact year is uncertain. A reconstructed date expresses a working chronological placement; a precise community date does not independently confirm when surrounding SWTOR events occurred. Read any date qualification alongside the entry.
These pages are references for players. A character’s knowledge depends on experience and access: public accounts, personal testimony, institutional records, and private discoveries can reveal different parts of the same history. Concealed information remains concealed within the story unless the character has a credible way to learn it.
Connect history to something within a character’s life: a former posting, interrupted training, an inherited responsibility, a damaged workplace, or someone they lost contact with. Consider where they were, what reached them indirectly, and which consequences could still bring them into contact with others. Participants determine how their own characters respond.
Explore Roleplay for stories and situations to follow. The Story Archive preserves concluded accounts whose discoveries, relationships, and unresolved consequences may offer a starting point for later interaction.
