Nebula Front/Legends

The Nebula Front was an organization that could be described as terrorists or freedom fighters, depending on one's view. Its membership was mainly composed of beings living along the Rimma Trade Route (especially from its Outer Rim end), and at least several among the Front's leadership had been involved in the Stark Hyperspace War. It was headquartered on Senex.

The Front was an organization opposing the de facto monopolies and government control exercised by large corporate conglomerates, most notably the Trade Federation, along the Outer Rim. The Front's view of the complacent Old Republic was scarcely, if at all, better. As such, numerous oppressed beings chafing under harsh conditions imposed by the Federation and its crony governments and corporations viewed the Front with sympathy or clandestine support.

Said governments and corporations were somewhat less tolerant of the Front's actions, and so any progress it made was limited. However, no matter how hopeless their cause seemed, the Front refused to deal with any organizations that were involved with spice smuggling or slavery, and always attempted to maintain their disruptions or peaceful protests and acts of civil disobediance.

The failure of such acts and noble paths to make any eeffct lead, in 33 BBY, to the development of a militant wing lead by two of the Front's leaders, Havac and Cindar. They contracted noted Mirialan mercenary Arwen Cohl to attack a Trade Federation ship. The subsequent Incident at Dorvalla was the first major victory of the Front, providing them not only with much publicity, but also enough stolen auridium to fund an attempted assassination of Supreme Chancellor Finis Valorum.

Unfortunately for them, it also attracted the notice of the Jedi Council, who ensured that Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-wan Kenobi (both of whom were present at Dorvalla) killed Cohl and put an end to the schemes of the Front's militant wing.
