So I've really been getting into The Mandalorian and now want to do some Star Wars stuff. The plot I had in mind contains some pretty big spoilers in terms of the world building in the show so I'll hide the idea I have under a spoiler. For the setting I was thinking of having our characters be surviving members of a Mandalorian clan on some Outer Rim or even Unknown Regions world. The plot could be our characters clan would try to recover beskar from Imperial Remnants and seek revenge for the Great Purge mentioned in Chapter 3. Other details like the planet they're on or what the clan name is we could figure out ourselves. I should be fairly active and can give a small paragraph in response

If there's enough interest I may make a proper rp for it

Cool, do you want to try and come up with the clan's name? I have no idea for one

The clan names tend to follow a pattern of hard consonants I've noticed, with a few exceptions
I'm a bit tired, so...
Karath Tesseract Sindelayn
maybe something along those lines?

I really like Karath. Do you think the clan would flee to an Outer Rim or Unknown Regions world?

Outer Rim, I suppose? To be honest, the lines blur together the closer you get to Wild Space. Now, I'm thinking they had a vendetta against the Imperial Remnants because they took very special offense to some things that they did to them if they had rebelled against Imperial occupation of Mandalore, though to be honest we don't really know as much of what happened there.

Yeah I figured the clan's goal could be to gather the beskar apparently stolen by the Empire during the Great Purge and search for other Mandalorians and bring them back to the planet they're on

So for the planet maybe a world hidden in Wild Space?
A cool idea I had was that it would be a rogue planet that had been ejected from it's star system. So the surface of the planet would be cold, barren, and uninhabitable but there would be a massive series of large underground caverns capable of supporting a stable biosphere. There could even be different cave systems that supported different climate types. Like the closer to the core you got the hotter it would become. To get below the surface of the planet there would be entrances to the caves on the surface.
I also imagined most creatures would be bioluminescent and very dangerous providing both a source of light and a challenge for the clan. I figure the clan would settle in one of the more temperate regions where the lifeforms would be less vicious.

You know, that's a super cool concept. I would actually write that as something of a long-lost clan proving ground which could turn out maybe as a sort of home base later on, like another piece of ancient Mandalorian history to be reclaimed like the beskar iron while in the meantime our characters would be nomadic or something.

That's a really good idea! So by nomads do you mean that whenever they get discovered or something they'll leave the planet they're on for another?

That's more or less the idea. I'm sort of imagining a small group with depleted numbers attempting to more or less make ends meet but honor-driven and determined to set right old grudges.

Sounds good! Maybe we could start off with our characters trying to find out more about the local Imperial Remnant faction while taking on bounties to earn some money to help build their strength back? All while searching for other Mandalorians.

To be honest I think we're ready to start, haha.
