Group

Galactic Factions

• The Empire, which dominates the galaxy. This is most likely interacting with Commodore Typho's forces, or at biggest, with Moff Eyenavi's jurisdiction (the Kanz Sector as a whole)
• The Rebel Alliance, which fights the Empire. This is mostly likely local: either spies and informants in the Halo Frontier, or the actual insurgency groups elsewhere in the Kanz Sector.

Local Governments

• The Halo Board, the governing council that runs Halo Station.
• Gandria, a theocracy centered on a faith called the Sokrinti Disorthodoxy. Made up of multiple sects, each run by a Bishop, who serve on a council in service to the Codexant. (Notorious for providing illegal substances as sacraments, such that many drug users simply claim to adhere to the Disorthodoxy in case they are caught.)
• Lekanton Sovereignty, a chevin dictatorship over a population of rodians, with extensive mining projects in and around their homeworld. (Extensive slave-running)
• Houses of Kobagari, a gaggle of competing noble houses from the nations of resource-rich Kobagari, arguably the wealthiest society in the Frontier. Kobagari nobility all wear ornamental masks as an aspect of their culture; many cultures on Kobagari favor veils or other mask-coverings as well.
• Deepsong, the nautolan/karkaradon colony in Deepsong Trench, on Lyn'Kati.

Corporations

• Worldseeker Corporation, a bothan corporation of navigators, explorers, and suppliers for such.

Criminal Syndicates

• The Voidfang Syndicate, the largest but far from the only criminal syndicate in the Frontier. Rumored to have connections to one of the larger galactic syndicates (Black Sun, Crimson Dawn, Hutt cartels, or similar).

• Tzotha Smugglers, smugglers who work all around the Frontier, bringing goods in from elsewhere

Place

• The Eruditias, a Venator-class Jedi cruiser, which the group was aboard when Order 66 occurred.
• Arvoth, a gas giant in the Gandria Nebula, surrounded by a massive field of ore-rich asteroids. Mineral and gas mining stations, plus a hide-out for pirates.
• Donia, a frontier arid plains and canyons world, home to a bunch of small ranching communities. Also known for the presence of the Bausec Monastery, a sequestered order of gand Findsmen.
• Gandria, a settled tundra world in the Gandria Nebula that is home to a theocracy called the Sokrinti Hegemony.
• Harea, a wild jungle and swamp world that is extremely toxic. Home to a group of mercenaries called the Harea Rangers, who specialize in fighting in toxic or dangerous environs.
• Kobagari, a settled multiclimate world that is home to a very rich diverse culture ruled by wealthy, decadent houses of human nobility. Home to lots of corporate and underworld interests.
• Kruzim, a wild forest and jungle planet that was the site of a Clone Wars-era engagement with Separatists, leaving its surface scarred with fallen capital ships and debris. Now mostly grown back over, it is home to small bands of scavengers.

• Reda, a wild mountains world, with high jagged peaks that rise up out of the stormcloud mists that lie low in the valleys, making them dangerous places. Rumors abound of archaeological ruins of an extinct advanced (but pre-space flight) civilization.
• Sacaya, a frontier mountains world, claimed by the Tiliq Mining Consortium. Though they own the largest facilities, they also contract out licenses to establish settlement leases, giving folk a chance at some of the world's ore wealth.
• Tzotha, a wild swamp world, often used as a hide-out by pirates and other criminal groups.
