Atrisia/Legends

Atrisia (also called Kitel Phard) was an ancient planet with a widely varied ecosystem.

The planet was governed by a planetary empire, and has been overseen by at least fifty four Emperors in its history since the Kitel Phard Dynasty was founded in 25,200 BBY. These Emperors maintained control through the Yovshin Swordsmen and later the Atrisian Assault Corps; at Jar'Kai, the Yovshin Swordsmen developed Jar'Kai swords of galactic fame. The fifty-fourth Emperor, Uueg Tching of Kitel Phard, was made famous for this oft-referenced quote from 4,519 BBY recorded in the Sayings:

"There are three ways to defeat your enemy. The first, and most obvious, is to better him in a trial of force. The best way is to have him destroy himself . . . The middle way is to destroy your enemy from within. Judicious application of the middle way shall make your blows more effective if you later take the way of force. From the middle way it is also possible to push your enemy onto the path of self-destruction."

The Sayings were stored in the Atrisian Imperial Historical Library in 2,989 BBY and printed for the Atrisian nobility in 1,489 BBY. When the Atrisian Parliament was formed in 529 BBY, it released the Sayings to the public.

Atrisia was part of the Galactic Empire; The Imperial Sourcebook seemed to imply that Atrisian realpolitik was at the back of many of Palpatine's policies and tactics. One of the Empire's four major army components was the Atrisian Royal Corps. This Corps developed the FD Ratio classification of artillery.

It was rumored that Atrisia was home to many mythological creatures and demigods. One such demigod known Galaxy-wide was Wapoe, the Atrisian demigod of disguise.
