'''Jawa Offworld Enterprises''' is a megacorporation which primarily profits through the investment in and creation of [[Jawa]] business ventures. Despite only recently having been created the business quickly rose to prominence in the galaxy, being at the center of a number of galactic events. This has been largely attributed by the group to the natural skill at conducting business possessed by the [[Jawa]] people. Ironically, the group of "offworld" Jawas has had considerable activity focused on their homeworld of [[Tatooine]], after assuming control of the planet in mid [[Year 21]]. The group has since used a variety of tactics to grow into the role of being the de facto government of many planets where they conduct business operations.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Origins===<br />
<br />
The origins of the Jawa Offworld Enterprises traces back to a number of different movements related to sentient rights of Jawa's and other short of stature species. Starting off with the likes of legendary Jawas [[Het Patchateeka]], [[Uli-ah Gafsa]], [[Heek Jikjawa]], and [[Tik Tak]] a number of pro-Jawa initiatives were attempted with the goal of assisting Jawas who left behind their homeland of [[Tatooine]]. However, due to a number of high profile legal cases, murders, and other disappearances all of these Jawas faded from the public eye almost entirely by around Y18. This led to the formation of two different groups which sought to advance the Jawa cause, the '''Jawa Society''' in Y18 as well as the '''League of Extraordinary Small Sentients''' in Y19, otherwise known as '''LESS'''. It was from these two groups and several unfortunate incidents that [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] managed to achieve the necessary capital as well as enough Jawa employees to launch their first business ventures.<br />
<br />
====Jawa Society====<br />
<br />
The Jawa Society was a grouping of Jawas of intergalactic prominence with the goal of providing community and assistance for Jawas. Formed by Jawas [[Jic Uiji]], [[Garik Loren]], [[Greyson Abrams]], [[Eugene Delmarco]], and [[Christine Apotheosis]] in early Y18 the group successfully launched a number of pro-Jawa initiatives like providing safe sandcrawler housing for Jawas around the galaxy. Sadly, after the death of [[Garik Loren]] after a politically motivated murder, the departure of [[Christine Apotheosis]], and increasing rumors of [[Greyson Abrams]] having plans of eugenics for the Jawa race the Jawa Society as a whole was in an increasingly weakened state and one which no longer had support across the galactic political spectrum. This led to a large amount of the pro-Jawa operations being purely done by [[Jic Uiji]], who was at the time the Governor of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] overseeing the [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] rule of the planet. As such most of the Jawa initiatives were in the form of supporting Jawa immigration to the mostly desert planet of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] and the success of Jawas on the planet. After [[Jic Uiji]] was crippled by unidentified assailants during a routine "trip" to the galactic core, his influence in the pirate collective quickly diminished and he was forced into early retirement by his crew from both his position as a captain and as governor. This led to an effective ceasing of many pro-Jawa initiatives in [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] territory.<br />
<br />
====League of Extraordinary Small Sentients====<br />
<br />
The League of Extraordinary Small Sentients was focused not just on the success of Jawas, but rather all sentient species that were deemed "small". However, in practice, this effectively meant [[Chadra-Fan]], [[Ewok]], and [[Jawa]] sentients were assisted. This was due in no small part to the main 4 members of LESS, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], [[Ini Kedi]], and [[Kolomon Seph]]. After briefly existing purely as a sentient rights group most of the members reformed into a recycling corporation known at the time as [[Raas-Moretti Industries]] in partnership with [[Moretti'ameli'arose]], who was otherwise known as [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. This group successfully operated for a number of months in no small part due to the incredible business skill of its Jawa members; however, things did not last. After [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], who was not a member of the group but allied with it under the [[Galactica Group]], along with [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], co-leader of the organization, plotted and successfully carried out the murder of [[Moretti'ameli'arose]] due to claimed "Overreach by the tall people into business operations" the business effectively ceased to exist. This move did not instill confidence in the employees of the organization that they would survive much longer if they remained, and within a month every major employee, largely the Jawa duo [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] had left for some reason. <br />
<br />
====Formation====<br />
<br />
With [[Jic Uiji]] from the Jawa Society along with [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] from LESS all recently disenfranchised for some reason it was a seemingly perfect time for events to transpire. With most of them having worked together before, it was no surprise that they felt that they as a group had the experience to start a new business venture. After meeting in what is rumored to be a Jawa only diner in the northeast rim the group sat down and after hours of negotiations formed the creation contracts of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, an organization ran by Jawas and for Jawas so that their people could prosper. Of course, the contracts included a number of clauses so that they could prosper extensively themselves. Within hours of signing the contracts, the trio went public with their announcement of the formation on Year 19 Day 362.<br />
<br />
===Deep Space===<br />
<br />
Looking to establish some form of base out of which to operate and live, the Jawas spent several weeks debating where Jawas could best settle off of [[Tatooine]]. Eventually it was determined that no matter where they went they would be subject to the rule of those who are not Jawas, and that was unacceptable to them. As such, the group went out into the great cold unknowns and established an area in which they could operate. Outside of any legitimate governmental jurisdiction, the group settled among the asteroid fields of the northeastern rim. This deep space location was where almost all JOE trade passed through, largely for tax reasons. This took a significant toll on many of the Jawas, who yearned for the heat of suns on their skin again. As such, many Jawas were motivated to enlist into expeditions for a planet that they could call their own and settle on.<br />
<br />
===Industrial Salvage===<br />
<br />
The groups first major operation was that of the salvaging of an estimated 20% of of the infrastructure of the planet [[Dalisor]], infrastructure that was deemed to be outdated and unsafe to live in. With a salvaging team primarily led by [[Tilba Ugama]], a Jawa who was fresh off of Tatooine, the group managed to to clear out kilotons of building materials. Most of these materials went directly to smaller Jawa businesses operating under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises umbrella, which repurposed everything they could for resale. It was in this period of mass wrecking/salvaging that Jawa Offworld Enterprises briefly spent several months as controlling a majority of the salvaging market, even though after receiving payment the group decided to move into more lucrative industries. This also saw the rise of [[Tilba Ugama]] to prominence in the organization.<br />
<br />
===The New Tent Order to Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
<br />
After hearing of rumored instability in the [[New Tent Order]], a religious organization which gained surprising prominence, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises decided to capitalize on the situation for the benefit of the Jawa race. Large numbers of Jawas were sent to register as devout believers of the New Tent Order moments before the heretic [[Fleuf Naze]] embarked on a suicidal quest to the center of a black hole. With the next leader being unclear, the Jawas were able to swing the public opinion and voting in favor of [[Jic Uiji]]. As the newly chosen tent leader, Jic Uiji took control of all tent order temples, churches, religious artifacts, and other assets before declaring that the group was reforming to an entirely different belief system. This belief system being the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]], a religion that had existed on [[Tatooine]] among the Jawas but had been struggling for intergalactic prominence. While being a secular organization, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises defended this move stating that it was neccesary for their independence and profits that the business and its people were not subject to any human religious authority.<br />
<br />
===Battle of Nimban===<br />
[[File:Jawameridianbattle.png|right]]<br />
:''Main article: [[Battle of Nimban]]''<br />
The '''Battle of Nimban''' also know as '''"Bopom Kova Upezzo M’tuske"''' among the Jawas was a major operation that saw the group shift increasingly militant as well as resulting in a number of alliances. After the Jawa Offworld Enterprises entered into an agreement with the '''ZooKeeper Alliance''' to provide assistance for their scientific research endeavors groups of Jawa fighter wings and research teams were seen increasingly flying alongside ZooKeeper vessels. This was most prominent in the Nimban system, an outer rim system where the ZooKeeper Alliance was conducting much of their research. However, the rival scientific organization the '''DNA Bashers''' had also been increasingly moving their own military presence into the system in direct opposition to the ZooKeeper Alliance. After several weeks of growing tensions, things escalated into an all out battle between these two major scientific organizations as well as their allied forces.<br />
<br />
Rather than directly focusing on directly attacking enemy forces the Jawa crews quickly organized into a number of different salvaging crews. These salvaging crews focused on the recovery and extraction of key tactical assets from the battlefield, such as preserving the lives of the ZooKeeper Alliance research crews and their research equipment. After several days of operating, with many Jawas going sleepless nights thanks to modern stimulant technology, things escalated further with the DNA Bashers revealing a super weapon that they had been developing in the system. This super weapon was a duo Battle-class Meridian Frigate, a beast of a ship which packed the punch of a battle moon while moving about as fast. As a part of a joint attack with assistance indirectly from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] as well as the newly found friends in [[Chir`dorna Manufacturing]], an elite Jawa salvaging team led by [[Jic Uiji]] managed to evade the volleys of blaster fire and board one of the craft. After fighting their way to the bridge the Jawas managed to take control of the craft and to pull it out of the battle. However, it had sustained serious damage to nearly every system and it has not yet even closely returned to its full operational capacity. Not having the original schematics the Jawa repair teams were only able to return the ship to its original state as operating as a Meridian-class Frigate. Becoming the unofficial flagship of the JOE fleet, this ship has become known as the "Mary Dean" in honor of the nickname given to it by [[St'eve]], a Jawa fighter pilot who died at the Battle of Nimban.<br />
<br />
===Sasan===<br />
[[File:Jawacouncil.png|left]]<br />
<br />
After war was declared on Jawa Offworld Enterprises by the [[Galactic Empire]], and worst of all trade sanctions, the Jawa collective was drawn into conflict with the Empire. Initially this resulted in a number of minor skirmishes with no major impact to either side; however, as hostilities grew the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were increasingly looking for ways to profit from this war until peace could be made. As such, when rebellion broke out in the Corellian sector the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were some of the first on the scene. Making use of the shadow trade routes created in order to dodge imperial trade sanctions as well as their expertise in unusual operations the Jawas managed to expertly operate around hostile forces and and ensure that planetary defenses were created on rebelling planets in order to repel the coming imperial fleets and legions. Many of these operations were focused on the securing of the planet [[Sasan]] in the [[New Plympto (System)|New Plympto]] system, with the planet's scorching temperatures allowing Jawas to work far longer hours and more effectively than the Corellians trying the same. Working in cooperation with a number of pro-Corellian independence groups Jawa Offworld Enterprises was able to secure [[Sasan]] as well as several other nearby rebelling planets from invasion.<br />
<br />
With there being relatively minimal local population on Sasan, with most of the planetary population evacuating to the safer and more hospitable planet of [[New Plympto (Planet)|New Plympto]], the Jawa Offworld Enterprises took control of the planetary governance with permission of the alliance for Corellian independence. The Corellian people were notably sympathetic to the plight of Jawas around the galaxy and it was deemed best for the security of the planet and system if it was inhabited by a race which could better withstand the hot climate. Within days of this announcement, laws lowering the the sales and income taxes were put into effect. <br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
[[File:Joetrenchant.png|right]]<br />
{{Quote<br />
|quote = For decades, we have struggled, at times openly and at times covertly, against external interference on Tatooine. For eons the planet was open to all, allowing free trade and cultural exchange until galactic governments took advantage of our openness and restricted our way of life, culminating in the exodus of Jawa to look for better prospects. Now, we are the ones that took advantage. The clans once again control our ancestral planet, and we will work tirelessly to bring it back to its former glory free of oppression. <br />
|person = [[Ini Kedi]] speaking after the liberation of Tatooine.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Following the fall of the [[New Republic]] and the occupation of [[Tatooine]] by the [[Galactic Empire]], JOE deployed a large number of Jawas back to the planet from offworld. These Jawa's were tasked with ensuring that Jawa trade to and from Tatooine would continue despite the circumstances. These initial smuggling operations quickly escalated with the Jawa group deciding to devote significant resources to effectively creating a shadow government on the planet, filling the void left by the largely ineffective imperial appointees. Through the assistance of the shadowy robed figures of the [[Jawa Liberation Front]] as well as the pressure placed on the [[Galactic Empire]] throughout the [[Arkanis]] sector by [[The Resistance]] the imperial forces eventually pulled out entirely, leaving the Jawas free to seize power in the vacuum and take control of the planet and its defense installations.<br />
<br />
===Expansion===<br />
<br />
After spending several years governing their homeworld, the Jawa people started to grow restless for profit. This resulted in a large number of Jawas once again setting off for the stars seeking profit.<br />
<br />
==Structure==<br />
<br />
The structure of JOE is largely divided into two separate parts, typically referred to as JOE Businesses and JOE Command. JOE Businesses make up the bulk of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, and covers the many different individual Jawa enterprises which have been invested in and assisted by JOE. On the other hand, JOE command is the umbrella organization that ensures the prosperity of the JOE businesses as well as handling the coordination for Jawa efforts on larger operations. However, there is often a large degree of overlap between the two sections and individual Jawas often work in both JOE Command and specific JOE Businesses.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has repeatedly stated that it is their intention to trade freely with every sentient in the galaxy regardless of their political affiliation or location. However, due to a number of high profile diplomatic incidents as well as translation errors by faulty protocol droids the group of Jawas have found themselves navigating often turbulous diplomatic environments. There have been many incidents of this sort which never transpired into anything larger, most notable of which was a threat of war and trade sanctions from a member of the [[Galactic Alliance]] during the [[Battle of Nimban]] as well as an incident with a separate government over the question of droid theft. However, not all diplomatic incidents managed to be quickly resolved. The [[Galactic Empire]] famously declared war on JOE and placed trade sanctions against them only days after the founding of the group, likely a result of JOE being vehemently pro Jawa and alien rights as well as the history of [[Jic Uiji]] as an enemy of the empire. <br />
<br />
===Politics of Tatooine===<br />
<br />
While effectively in a position of governance, the Jawa corporation has little interest in the day to day legalities which are normally entailed in that position. Instead JOE focuses primarily on controlling the economic policies of the planet as a whole and on creating an environment that is ultimately better for Jawa business. Matters such as what constitutes a crime, construction of social projects, and enforcement of laws is typically handled by local governance which varies widely based on the planetary area.<br />
<br />
==Organizations==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has a large number of Jawa organizations that it is affiliated with. The exact relationship between each of them and Jawa Offworld Enterprises as a whole will vary.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
:''Main article: [[Jawa Industrial Magi]]''<br />
<br />
Born out of the shamans, wise men, and religions of Tatooine are the Jawa Industrial Magi. Despite parts of this religion dating back as far as Jawa records go, this incarcenation is much more recent. With a focus on taking ancient traditions into the future through technology and industry, the Jawa Industrial Magi were founded. Practitioners of this religion vary greatly in beliefs, with the many existing conflicting records of the teaching of various Gods and prophets leading to greatly differing beliefs. <br />
<br />
Due to worries over conversion of Jawas, typically done by members of [[Alissma]] or [[Zhellic Ecclesiarchy]] by restricting business with those who followed other religions, [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] pushed to ensure that a religious institute would exist on the galactic scale for the Jawa people. The Magi provide support Jawas to follow their religion wherever they may be as well as handling many of the more charitable operations JOE has.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Outer Colonies===<br />
<br />
Formed out of the [[Veilhal Nomads]], Jawa Outer Colonies exists primarily to ensure that the increasingly diverse worlds governed by Jawa economic rule are protected and profitable.<br />
<br />
===Twin Suns Trading===<br />
<br />
Twin Suns Trading opened for business on year 21 day 76 after savvy businesjawa Zu Icaz traded a droid to the failing owners and set to turn the business around from scrap to splendor as is the Jawa way. Bringing trade to the outer rim and beyond, we look to serve the galaxy with unsurpassed Jawa quality goods. All sentients, especially Jawas, should have access to safe markets and affordable transportation through our Starports for conducting their business Offworld.<br />
<br />
One of the more traditional "businesses" under the JOE umbrella TST primarily seeks to develop trading infrastructure for sentients across the galaxy. <br />
<br />
===Sarlacc Integrated Design===<br />
<br />
A business run by [[Kolomon Seph]], the Sarlacc Pit seeks to customize what are often humancentric designed items and make them into something which is better functioning for the unique situations in the galaxy. This usually includes specialized equipment for the [[Jawa]] people, with the Sarlacc Pit being responsible for much of the research into Jawa armour, weapon, tool, and ship design. This would eventually reform into the much larger business known as [[Sarlacc Integrated Design]] which is presently led by [[Bif Beefi]] and is mainly based on the moon of [[Chenini]], one of the three moons of [[Tatooine]].<br />
<br />
[[File:SIDMH.png]]<br />
<br />
===Jawa Enforcement & Forensics Force===<br />
<br />
A recently formed arm of JOE, JEFF serves to organize policing efforts in the [[Tatoo]] system and to track down criminals who pose a threat to the Jawa way of life.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Advanced Resource Exploitation Directorate (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
The mining arm of JOE, JARED played a key role in establishing successful Jawa industry on Tatooine. Ran by [[Wizz Eeeklee]] it mined luxurious minerals such as Duracrete and Ryll. Eventually JARED would unceremoniously dissolve after the dirt haulers in several colonies unionized and lead a large strike, eventually seizing JARED's headquarters and forcing the business into bankruptcy. Attempts to reclaim JARED's headquarters have been largely unsuccessful, with the dirt haulers union having held out against a siege since late Y21 with no signs of stopping. The union strikers are rumored to have used their mining equipment to construct an elaborate series of tunnels to smuggle food and items in and out of the headquarters.<br />
<br />
===Maker's Offworld Medical (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A joint business partnership with the [[Gordian Reach Authority]] led by [[Hazamuzee Seph]], [[Maker's Offworld Medical]] is a medical operation with a focus on taking the often human focused field of medicine and adapting it for Jawa needs. Group later went bankrupt after producing enough medicine to cure the entire Jawa population of certain transmitted diseases several times over, reducing demand dramatically.<br />
<br />
===Xenoarchaeological Institute (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A brief lived Jawa takeover, XI was primarily used to investigate ruins related to the [[Jawa]] people. Due to it being forbidden for non-Jawa to view the sacred remains of any Jawa it was important for the archaeological institute to be overseen by [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] during this time. It was eventually disbanded due to the Jawas running out of historical sites that were easy to find.<br />
<br />
==Employee Of The Month==<br />
<br />
A great title and honor, bestowed upon members of Jawa Offworld Enterprises who rise above the rest and demonstrate exemplary ability in the workplace. This signifies that a Jawa is not just skilled but also has a tremendous work ethic, one that will likely take them far in the galaxy.<br />
<br />

<br />
[[Tilba Ugama]] for spearheading the recycling initiatives at [[Dalisor]].<br />
<br />
[[Wizz Eeeklee]] for pioneering new techniques in locating asteroid fields.<br />

<br />
===Current Employee Of The Month===<br />
<br />
[[Tipris Taprahn]], the first non-Jawa taking this honor due to a bizarrely non-Jawa "work ethic" that means actually accomplishing things instead of just embezzling credits.<br />

==Origins==<br />
<br />
Within Kuat City of Kuat on the 210th day of Year -2, Thaelos Kolarr would be born to Prim Kolarr and Edward Matlock. His parents were both employed within the regional government of Kuat where they had met and would eventually fall in love. Edward hailed from Coruscant, from where he would choose to move from the cluttered and dense Ecumenopolis in favor of a more natural and flora-rich environment. Prim was a native to the lush garden world of Kuat, from where her upbringing led to prosperity and the securement of an administerial career.<br />
<br />
Due to the importance of Kuat and the Orbital Drive Yards, The family would maintain a financially secure life as well as enjoy the safety of the Imperial Navy stationed there. As he matured, Thaelos would be nurtured and cared for by his parents often, shaping him into a rather caring and compassionate individual.<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations. As a part of advancing the jawa agenda he has been accused of many crimes, and is wanted for questioning or arrest in an estimated 76 sectors.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
===Sweet Pineapple===<br />
<br />
Jic is known to posses at least one of this rare fruit. It is unknown if he eats it or enjoys eating it, and is rumored to have acquired through an elaborate case of Jawa identity theft.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Murder===<br />
<br />
Numerous individuals have tried to capture and kill Jic. The following is not a complete list and only includes individuals who went to extensive personal efforts and got reasonably close to succeeding.<br />
<br />
Freelance Yam`rii [[Kray Voh]]<br />
<br />
[[Bounty Hunters Guild]] (during the [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] alliance) Member [[KuKhal Bass]]<br />
<br />
[[The Lawless]] Member [[Fang D`wurm]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Officer [[Cornelius Tuspin]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Officer [[Olifa Omicron]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Sith [[Vladamiur Veselov]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Sith [[Emillio Peares]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Sith [[Navarro De Molay]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Sith and Imperial Intelligence leader [[Jett Blackheart]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Imperial Intelligence member and acting [[CorSec]] leader [[Kathleen Tate]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Sith [[Sigmund von Ismay]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Officer [[Xyena Carmesi]]<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />

}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />
<br />
====The Trash Heap====<br />
On Y██ D███ an incident occurred at the trash heap involving [[Kolomon Seph|████████ ████]]. Nobody is clear on the details, but it is believed that following the ████████ incident there was a breakdown in relations that resulted in the ███████ █████ ██ ████ ██ ████ ████. It is believed that following the intervention of ███ ██████ the issue was resolved.<br />
<br />
====Battlegroup Operation Naval Exercise Disaster====<br />
<br />
An incident occurred when [[Jic Uiji]] ████████ ████ ██ [[Redjon Mirrabel]] ███ ███ ████████ █ ███████ █████ █████. ███████ ██ ████ ████ ██ ██ █ █████ █████. Those who mentioned this incident have recanted their claims, stating officially that "Jic operated with precision and accuracy, and definitely did not engage in any behavior that resulted in the destruction of friendly ships".<br />

However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
===Sweet Pineapple===<br />
<br />
Jic is known to posses at least one of this rare fruit. It is unknown if he eats it or enjoys eating it, and is rumored to have acquired through an elaborate case of Jawa identity theft.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Murder===<br />
<br />
Numerous individuals have tried to capture and kill Jic. The following is not a complete list and only includes individuals who went to extensive personal efforts and got reasonably close to succeeding.<br />
<br />
Freelance Yam`rii [[Kray Voh]]<br />
<br />
[[Bounty Hunters Guild]] (during the [[Tresario Star Kingdom]] alliance) Member [[KuKhal Bass]]<br />
<br />
[[The Lawless]] Member [[Fang D`wurm]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Officer [[Cornelius Tuspin]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Officer [[Olifa Omicron]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Sith [[Vladamiur Veselov]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Sith [[Emillio Peares]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Sith [[Navarro De Molay]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Sith and Imperial Intelligence leader [[Jett Blackheart]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Imperial Intelligence member and acting [[CorSec]] leader [[Kathleen Tate]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Sith [[Sigmund von Ismay]]<br />
<br />
[[Galactic Empire]] Officer [[Xyena Carmesi]]<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = Listen, it is neither piracy nor unethical to take something roughly equal in value including interest to what was took from you. This is the concept of debt repossession and is a basic trading concept you humans seem to miss.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji justifying his sins.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />
<br />
====The Trash Heap====<br />
On Y██ D███ an incident occurred at the trash heap involving [[Kolomon Seph|████████ ████]]. Nobody is clear on the details, but it is believed that following the ████████ incident there was a breakdown in relations that resulted in the ███████ █████ ██ ████ ██ ████ ████. It is believed that following the intervention of ███ ██████ the issue was resolved.<br />

}}<br />
'''Jawa Offworld Enterprises''' is a megacorporation which primarily profits through the investment in and creation of [[Jawa]] business ventures. Despite only recently having been created the business quickly rose to prominence in the galaxy, being at the center of a number of galactic events. This has been largely attributed by the group to the natural skill at conducting business possessed by the [[Jawa]] people. Ironically, the group of "offworld" Jawas has had considerable activity focused on their homeworld of [[Tatooine]], after assuming control of the planet in mid [[Year 21]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Origins===<br />
<br />
The origins of the Jawa Offworld Enterprises traces back to a number of different movements related to sentient rights of Jawa's and other short of stature species. Starting off with the likes of legendary Jawas [[Het Patchateeka]], [[Uli-ah Gafsa]], [[Heek Jikjawa]], and [[Tik Tak]] a number of pro-Jawa initiatives were attempted with the goal of assisting Jawas who left behind their homeland of [[Tatooine]]. However, due to a number of high profile legal cases, murders, and other disappearances all of these Jawas faded from the public eye almost entirely by around Y18. This led to the formation of two different groups which sought to advance the Jawa cause, the '''Jawa Society''' in Y18 as well as the '''League of Extraordinary Small Sentients''' in Y19, otherwise known as '''LESS'''. It was from these two groups and several unfortunate incidents that [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] managed to achieve the necessary capital as well as enough Jawa employees to launch their first business ventures.<br />
<br />
====Jawa Society====<br />
<br />
The Jawa Society was a grouping of Jawas of intergalactic prominence with the goal of providing community and assistance for Jawas. Formed by Jawas [[Jic Uiji]], [[Garik Loren]], [[Greyson Abrams]], [[Eugene Delmarco]], and [[Christine Apotheosis]] in early Y18 the group successfully launched a number of pro-Jawa initiatives like providing safe sandcrawler housing for Jawas around the galaxy. Sadly, after the death of [[Garik Loren]] after a politically motivated murder, the departure of [[Christine Apotheosis]], and increasing rumors of [[Greyson Abrams]] having plans of eugenics for the Jawa race the Jawa Society as a whole was in an increasingly weakened state and one which no longer had support across the galactic political spectrum. This led to a large amount of the pro-Jawa operations being purely done by [[Jic Uiji]], who was at the time the Governor of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] overseeing the [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] rule of the planet. As such most of the Jawa initiatives were in the form of supporting Jawa immigration to the mostly desert planet of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] and the success of Jawas on the planet. After [[Jic Uiji]] was crippled by unidentified assailants during a routine "trip" to the galactic core, his influence in the pirate collective quickly diminished and he was forced into early retirement by his crew from both his position as a captain and as governor. This led to an effective ceasing of many pro-Jawa initiatives in [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] territory.<br />
<br />
====League of Extraordinary Small Sentients====<br />
<br />
The League of Extraordinary Small Sentients was focused not just on the success of Jawas, but rather all sentient species that were deemed "small". However, in practice, this effectively meant [[Chadra-Fan]], [[Ewok]], and [[Jawa]] sentients were assisted. This was due in no small part to the main 4 members of LESS, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], [[Ini Kedi]], and [[Kolomon Seph]]. After briefly existing purely as a sentient rights group most of the members reformed into a recycling corporation known at the time as [[Raas-Moretti Industries]] in partnership with [[Moretti'ameli'arose]], who was otherwise known as [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. This group successfully operated for a number of months in no small part due to the incredible business skill of its Jawa members; however, things did not last. After [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], who was not a member of the group but allied with it under the [[Galactica Group]], along with [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], co-leader of the organization, plotted and succesfully carried out the murder of [[Moretti'ameli'arose]] due to claimed "Overreach by the tall people into business operations" the business effectively ceased to exist. This move did not instill confidence in the employees of the organization that they would survive much longer if they remained, and within a month every major employee, largely the Jawa duo [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] had left for some reason. <br />
<br />
====Formation====<br />
<br />
With [[Jic Uiji]] from the Jawa Society along with [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] from LESS all recently disenfranchised for some reason it was a seemingly perfect time for events to transpire. With most of them having worked together before, it was no surprise that they felt that they as a group had the experience to start a new business venture. After meeting in what is rumored to be a Jawa only diner in the northeast rim the group sat down and after hours of negotiations formed the creation contracts of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, an organization ran by Jawas and for Jawas so that their people could prosper. Of course, the contracts included a number of clauses so that they could prosper extensively themselves. Within hours of signing the contracts, the trio went public with their announcement of the formation on Year 19 Day 362.<br />
<br />
===Deep Space===<br />
<br />
Looking to establish some form of base out of which to operate and live, the Jawas spent several weeks debating where Jawas could best settle off of [[Tatooine]]. Eventually it was determined that no matter where they went they would be subject to the rule of those who are not Jawas, and that was unacceptable to them. As such, the group went out into the great cold unknowns and established an area in which they could operate. Outside of any legitimate governmental jurisdiction, the group settled among the asteroid fields of the northeastern rim. This deep space location was where almost all JOE trade passed through, largely for tax reasons. This took a significant toll on many of the Jawas, who yearned for the heat of suns on their skin again. As such, many Jawas were motivated to enlist into expeditions for a planet that they could call their own and settle on.<br />
<br />
===Industrial Salvage===<br />
<br />
The groups first major operation was that of the salvaging of an estimated 20% of of the infrastructure of the planet [[Dalisor]], infrastructure that was deemed to be outdated and unsafe to live in. With a salvaging team primarily led by [[Tilba Ugama]], a Jawa who was fresh off of Tatooine, the group managed to to clear out kilotons of building materials. Most of these materials went directly to smaller Jawa businesses operating under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises umbrella, which repurposed everything they could for resale. It was in this period of mass wrecking/salvaging that Jawa Offworld Enterprises briefly spent several months as controlling a majority of the salvaging market, even though after receiving payment the group decided to move into more lucrative industries. This also saw the rise of [[Tilba Ugama]] to prominence in the organization.<br />
<br />
===The New Tent Order to Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
<br />
After hearing of rumored instability in the [[New Tent Order]], a religious organization which gained surprising prominence, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises decided to capitalize on the situation for the benefit of the Jawa race. Large numbers of Jawas were sent to register as devout believers of the New Tent Order moments before the heretic [[Fleuf Naze]] embarked on a suicidal quest to the center of a black hole. With the next leader being unclear, the Jawas were able to swing the public opinion and voting in favor of [[Jic Uiji]]. As the newly chosen tent leader, Jic Uiji took control of all tent order temples, churches, religious artifacts, and other assets before declaring that the group was reforming to an entirely different belief system. This belief system being the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]], a religion that had existed on [[Tatooine]] among the Jawas but had been struggling for intergalactic prominence. While being a secular organization, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises defended this move stating that it was neccesary for their independence and profits that the business and its people were not subject to any human religious authority.<br />
<br />
===Battle of Nimban===<br />
[[File:Jawameridianbattle.png|right]]<br />
:''Main article: [[Battle of Nimban]]''<br />
The '''Battle of Nimban''' also know as '''"Bopom Kova Upezzo M’tuske"''' among the Jawas was a major operation that saw the group shift increasingly militant as well as resulting in a number of alliances. After the Jawa Offworld Enterprises entered into an agreement with the '''ZooKeeper Alliance''' to provide assistance for their scientific research endeavors groups of Jawa fighter wings and research teams were seen increasingly flying alongside ZooKeeper vessels. This was most prominent in the Nimban system, an outer rim system where the ZooKeeper Alliance was conducting much of their research. However, the rival scientific organization the '''DNA Bashers''' had also been increasingly moving their own military presence into the system in direct opposition to the ZooKeeper Alliance. After several weeks of growing tensions, things escalated into an all out battle between these two major scientific organizations as well as their allied forces.<br />
<br />
Rather than directly focusing on directly attacking enemy forces the Jawa crews quickly organized into a number of different salvaging crews. These salvaging crews focused on the recovery and extraction of key tactical assets from the battlefield, such as preserving the lives of the ZooKeeper Alliance research crews and their research equipment. After several days of operating, with many Jawas going sleepless nights thanks to modern stimulant technology, things escalated further with the DNA Bashers revealing a super weapon that they had been developing in the system. This super weapon was a duo Battle-class Meridian Frigate, a beast of a ship which packed the punch of a battle moon while moving about as fast. As a part of a joint attack with assistance indirectly from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] as well as the newly found friends in [[Chir`dorna Manufacturing]], an elite Jawa salvaging team led by [[Jic Uiji]] managed to evade the volleys of blaster fire and board one of the craft. After fighting their way to the bridge the Jawas managed to take control of the craft and to pull it out of the battle. However, it had sustained serious damage to nearly every system and it has not yet even closely returned to its full operational capacity. Not having the original schematics the Jawa repair teams were only able to return the ship to its original state as operating as a Meridian-class Frigate. Becoming the unofficial flagship of the JOE fleet, this ship has become known as the "Mary Dean" in honor of the nickname given to it by [[St'eve]], a Jawa fighter pilot who died at the Battle of Nimban.<br />
<br />
===Sasan===<br />
[[File:Jawacouncil.png|left]]<br />
<br />
After war was declared on Jawa Offworld Enterprises by the [[Galactic Empire]], and worst of all trade sanctions, the Jawa collective was drawn into conflict with the Empire. Initially this resulted in a number of minor skirmishes with no major impact to either side; however, as hostilities grew the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were increasingly looking for ways to profit from this war until peace could be made. As such, when rebellion broke out in the Corellian sector the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were some of the first on the scene. Making use of the shadow trade routes created in order to dodge imperial trade sanctions as well as their expertise in unusual operations the Jawas managed to expertly operate around hostile forces and and ensure that planetary defenses were created on rebelling planets in order to repel the coming imperial fleets and legions. Many of these operations were focused on the securing of the planet [[Sasan]] in the [[New Plympto (System)|New Plympto]] system, with the planet's scorching temperatures allowing Jawas to work far longer hours and more effectively than the Corellians trying the same. Working in cooperation with a number of pro-Corellian independence groups Jawa Offworld Enterprises was able to secure [[Sasan]] as well as several other nearby rebelling planets from invasion.<br />
<br />
With there being relatively minimal local population on Sasan, with most of the planetary population evacuating to the safer and more hospitable planet of [[New Plympto (Planet)|New Plympto]], the Jawa Offworld Enterprises took control of the planetary governance with permission of the alliance for Corellian independence. The Corellian people were notably sympathetic to the plight of Jawas around the galaxy and it was deemed best for the security of the planet and system if it was inhabited by a race which could better withstand the hot climate. Within days of this announcement, laws lowering the the sales and income taxes were put into effect. <br />

===Tatooine===<br />

{{Quote<br />
|quote = For decades, we have struggled, at times openly and at times covertly, against external interference on Tatooine. For eons the planet was open to all, allowing free trade and cultural exchange until galactic governments took advantage of our openness and restricted our way of life, culminating in the exodus of Jawa to look for better prospects. Now, we are the ones that took advantage. The clans once again control our ancestral planet, and we will work tirelessly to bring it back to its former glory free of oppression. <br />
|person = [[Ini Kedi]] speaking after the liberation of Tatooine.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Following the fall of the [[New Republic]] and the occupation of [[Tatooine]] by the [[Galactic Empire]], JOE deployed a large number of Jawas back to the planet from offworld. These Jawa's were tasked with ensuring that Jawa trade to and from Tatooine would continue despite the circumstances. These initial smuggling operations quickly escalated with the Jawa group deciding to devote significant resources to effectively creating a shadow government on the planet, filling the void left by the largely ineffective imperial appointees. Through the assistance of the shadowy robed figures of the [[Jawa Liberation Front]] as well as the pressure placed on the [[Galactic Empire]] throughout the [[Arkanis]] sector by [[The Resistance]] the imperial forces eventually pulled out entirely, leaving the Jawas free to seize power in the vacuum and take control of the planet and its defense installations.<br />
<br />
==Structure==<br />
<br />
The structure of JOE is largely divided into two separate parts, typically referred to as JOE Businesses and JOE Command. JOE Businesses make up the bulk of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, and covers the many different individual Jawa enterprises which have been invested in and assisted by JOE. On the other hand, JOE command is the umbrella organization that ensures the prosperity of the JOE businesses as well as handling the coordination for Jawa efforts on larger operations. However, there is often a large degree of overlap between the two sections and individual Jawas often work in both JOE Command and specific JOE Businesses.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has repeatedly stated that it is their intention to trade freely with every sentient in the galaxy regardless of their political affiliation or location. However, due to a number of high profile diplomatic incidents as well as translation errors by faulty protocol droids the group of Jawas have found themselves navigating often turbulous diplomatic environments. There have been many incidents of this sort which never transpired into anything larger, most notable of which was a threat of war and trade sanctions from a member of the [[Galactic Alliance]] during the [[Battle of Nimban]] as well as an incident with a separate government over the question of droid theft. However, not all diplomatic incidents managed to be quickly resolved. The [[Galactic Empire]] famously declared war on JOE and placed trade sanctions against them only days after the founding of the group, likely a result of JOE being vehemently pro Jawa and alien rights as well as the history of [[Jic Uiji]] as an enemy of the empire. <br />
<br />
===Politics of Tatooine===<br />
<br />
While effectively in a position of governance, the Jawa corporation has little interest in the day to day legalities which are normally entailed in that position. Instead JOE focuses primarily on controlling the economic policies of the planet as a whole and on creating an environment that is ultimately better for Jawa business. Matters such as what constitutes a crime, construction of social projects, and enforcement of laws is typically handled by local governance which varies widely based on the planetary area.<br />
<br />
==Organizations==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has a large number of Jawa organizations that it is affiliated with. The exact relationship between each of them and Jawa Offworld Enterprises as a whole will vary.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
:''Main article: [[Jawa Industrial Magi]]''<br />
<br />
Born out of the shamans, wise men, and religions of Tatooine are the Jawa Industrial Magi. Despite parts of this religion dating back as far as Jawa records go, this incarcenation is much more recent. With a focus on taking ancient traditions into the future through technology and industry, the Jawa Industrial Magi were founded. Practitioners of this religion vary greatly in beliefs, with the many existing conflicting records of the teaching of various Gods and prophets leading to greatly differing beliefs. <br />
<br />
Due to worries over conversion of Jawas, typically done by members of [[Alissma]] or [[Zhellic Ecclesiarchy]] by restricting business with those who followed other religions, [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] pushed to ensure that a religious institute would exist on the galactic scale for the Jawa people. The Magi provide support Jawas to follow their religion wherever they may be as well as handling many of the more charitable operations JOE has.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Outer Colonies===<br />
<br />
Formed out of the [[Veilhal Nomads]], Jawa Outer Colonies exists primarily to ensure that the increasingly diverse worlds governed by Jawa economic rule are protected and profitable.<br />
<br />
===Twin Suns Trading===<br />
<br />
Twin Suns Trading opened for business on year 21 day 76 after savvy businesjawa Zu Icaz traded a droid to the failing owners and set to turn the business around from scrap to splendor as is the Jawa way. Bringing trade to the outer rim and beyond, we look to serve the galaxy with unsurpassed Jawa quality goods. All sentients, especially Jawas, should have access to safe markets and affordable transportation through our Starports for conducting their business Offworld.<br />
<br />
One of the more traditional "businesses" under the JOE umbrella TST primarily seeks to develop trading infrastructure for sentients across the galaxy. <br />
<br />
===Sarlacc Integrated Design===<br />
<br />
A business run by [[Kolomon Seph]], the Sarlacc Pit seeks to customize what are often humancentric designed items and make them into something which is better functioning for the unique situations in the galaxy. This usually includes specialized equipment for the [[Jawa]] people, with the Sarlacc Pit being responsible for much of the research into Jawa armour, weapon, tool, and ship design. This would eventually reform into the much larger business known as [[Sarlacc Integrated Design]] which is presently led by [[Bif Beefi]] and is mainly based on the moon of [[Chenini]], one of the three moons of [[Tatooine]].<br />
<br />
[[File:SIDMH.png]]<br />
<br />
===Jawa Enforcement & Forensics Force===<br />
<br />
A recently formed arm of JOE, JEFF serves to organize policing efforts in the [[Tatoo]] system and to track down criminals who pose a threat to the Jawa way of life.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Advanced Resource Exploitation Directorate (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
The mining arm of JOE, JARED played a key role in establishing successful Jawa industry on Tatooine. Ran by [[Wizz Eeeklee]] it mined luxurious minerals such as Duracrete and Ryll. Eventually JARED would unceremoniously dissolve after the dirt haulers in several colonies unionized and lead a large strike, eventually seizing JARED's headquarters and forcing the business into bankruptcy. Attempts to reclaim JARED's headquarters have been largely unsuccessful, with the dirt haulers union having held out against a siege since late Y21 with no signs of stopping. The union strikers are rumored to have used their mining equipment to construct an elaborate series of tunnels to smuggle food and items in and out of the headquarters.<br />
<br />
===Maker's Offworld Medical (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A joint business partnership with the [[Gordian Reach Authority]] led by [[Hazamuzee Seph]], [[Maker's Offworld Medical]] is a medical operation with a focus on taking the often human focused field of medicine and adapting it for Jawa needs. Group later went bankrupt after producing enough medicine to cure the entire Jawa population of certain transmitted diseases several times over, reducing demand dramatically.<br />
<br />
===Xenoarchaeological Institute (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A brief lived Jawa takeover, XI was primarily used to investigate ruins related to the [[Jawa]] people. Due to it being forbidden for non-Jawa to view the sacred remains of any Jawa it was important for the archaeological institute to be overseen by [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] during this time. It was eventually disbanded due to the Jawas running out of historical sites that were easy to find.<br />
<br />
==Employee Of The Month==<br />
<br />
A great title and honor, bestowed upon members of Jawa Offworld Enterprises who rise above the rest and demonstrate exemplary ability in the workplace. This signifies that a Jawa is not just skilled but also has a tremendous work ethic, one that will likely take them far in the galaxy.<br />

'''Jawa Offworld Enterprises''' is a megacorporation which primarily profits through the investment in and creation of [[Jawa]] business ventures. Despite only recently having been created the business quickly rose to prominence in the galaxy, being at the center of a number of galactic events. This has been largely attributed by the group to the natural skill at conducting business possessed by the [[Jawa]] people. Ironically, the group of "offworld" Jawas has had considerable activity focused on their homeworld of [[Tatooine]], after assuming control of the planet in mid [[Year 21]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Origins===<br />
<br />
The origins of the Jawa Offworld Enterprises traces back to a number of different movements related to sentient rights of Jawa's and other short of stature species. Starting off with the likes of legendary Jawas [[Het Patchateeka]], [[Uli-ah Gafsa]], [[Heek Jikjawa]], and [[Tik Tak]] a number of pro-Jawa initiatives were attempted with the goal of assisting Jawas who left behind their homeland of [[Tatooine]]. However, due to a number of high profile legal cases, murders, and other disappearances all of these Jawas faded from the public eye almost entirely by around Y18. This led to the formation of two different groups which sought to advance the Jawa cause, the '''Jawa Society''' in Y18 as well as the '''League of Extraordinary Small Sentients''' in Y19, otherwise known as '''LESS'''. It was from these two groups and several unfortunate incidents that [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] managed to achieve the necessary capital as well as enough Jawa employees to launch their first business ventures.<br />
<br />
====Jawa Society====<br />
<br />
The Jawa Society was a grouping of Jawas of intergalactic prominence with the goal of providing community and assistance for Jawas. Formed by Jawas [[Jic Uiji]], [[Garik Loren]], [[Greyson Abrams]], [[Eugene Delmarco]], and [[Christine Apotheosis]] in early Y18 the group successfully launched a number of pro-Jawa initiatives like providing safe sandcrawler housing for Jawas around the galaxy. Sadly, after the death of [[Garik Loren]] after a politically motivated murder, the departure of [[Christine Apotheosis]], and increasing rumors of [[Greyson Abrams]] having plans of eugenics for the Jawa race the Jawa Society as a whole was in an increasingly weakened state and one which no longer had support across the galactic political spectrum. This led to a large amount of the pro-Jawa operations being purely done by [[Jic Uiji]], who was at the time the Governor of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] overseeing the [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] rule of the planet. As such most of the Jawa initiatives were in the form of supporting Jawa immigration to the mostly desert planet of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] and the success of Jawas on the planet. After [[Jic Uiji]] was crippled by unidentified assailants during a routine "trip" to the galactic core, his influence in the pirate collective quickly diminished and he was forced into early retirement by his crew from both his position as a captain and as governor. This led to an effective ceasing of many pro-Jawa initiatives in [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] territory.<br />
<br />
====League of Extraordinary Small Sentients====<br />
<br />
The League of Extraordinary Small Sentients was focused not just on the success of Jawas, but rather all sentient species that were deemed "small". However, in practice, this effectively meant [[Chadra-Fan]], [[Ewok]], and [[Jawa]] sentients were assisted. This was due in no small part to the main 4 members of LESS, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], [[Ini Kedi]], and [[Kolomon Seph]]. After briefly existing purely as a sentient rights group most of the members reformed into a recycling corporation known at the time as [[Raas-Moretti Industries]] in partnership with [[Moretti'ameli'arose]], who was otherwise known as [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. This group successfully operated for a number of months in no small part due to the incredible business skill of its Jawa members; however, things did not last. After [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], who was not a member of the group but allied with it under the [[Galactica Group]], along with [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], co-leader of the organization, plotted and succesfully carried out the murder of [[Moretti'ameli'arose]] due to claimed "Overreach by the tall people into business operations" the business effectively ceased to exist. This move did not instill confidence in the employees of the organization that they would survive much longer if they remained, and within a month every major employee, largely the Jawa duo [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] had left for some reason. <br />
<br />
====Formation====<br />
<br />
With [[Jic Uiji]] from the Jawa Society along with [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] from LESS all recently disenfranchised for some reason it was a seemingly perfect time for events to transpire. With most of them having worked together before, it was no surprise that they felt that they as a group had the experience to start a new business venture. After meeting in what is rumored to be a Jawa only diner in the northeast rim the group sat down and after hours of negotiations formed the creation contracts of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, an organization ran by Jawas and for Jawas so that their people could prosper. Of course, the contracts included a number of clauses so that they could prosper extensively themselves. Within hours of signing the contracts, the trio went public with their announcement of the formation on Year 19 Day 362.<br />
<br />
===Deep Space===<br />
<br />
Looking to establish some form of base out of which to operate and live, the Jawas spent several weeks debating where Jawas could best settle off of [[Tatooine]]. Eventually it was determined that no matter where they went they would be subject to the rule of those who are not Jawas, and that was unacceptable to them. As such, the group went out into the great cold unknowns and established an area in which they could operate. Outside of any legitimate governmental jurisdiction, the group settled among the asteroid fields of the northeastern rim. This deep space location was where almost all JOE trade passed through, largely for tax reasons. This took a significant toll on many of the Jawas, who yearned for the heat of suns on their skin again. As such, many Jawas were motivated to enlist into expeditions for a planet that they could call their own and settle on.<br />
<br />
===Industrial Salvage===<br />
<br />
The groups first major operation was that of the salvaging of an estimated 20% of of the infrastructure of the planet [[Dalisor]], infrastructure that was deemed to be outdated and unsafe to live in. With a salvaging team primarily led by [[Tilba Ugama]], a Jawa who was fresh off of Tatooine, the group managed to to clear out kilotons of building materials. Most of these materials went directly to smaller Jawa businesses operating under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises umbrella, which repurposed everything they could for resale. It was in this period of mass wrecking/salvaging that Jawa Offworld Enterprises briefly spent several months as controlling a majority of the salvaging market, even though after receiving payment the group decided to move into more lucrative industries. This also saw the rise of [[Tilba Ugama]] to prominence in the organization.<br />
<br />
===The New Tent Order to Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
<br />
After hearing of rumored instability in the [[New Tent Order]], a religious organization which gained surprising prominence, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises decided to capitalize on the situation for the benefit of the Jawa race. Large numbers of Jawas were sent to register as devout believers of the New Tent Order moments before the heretic [[Fleuf Naze]] embarked on a suicidal quest to the center of a black hole. With the next leader being unclear, the Jawas were able to swing the public opinion and voting in favor of [[Jic Uiji]]. As the newly chosen tent leader, Jic Uiji took control of all tent order temples, churches, religious artifacts, and other assets before declaring that the group was reforming to an entirely different belief system. This belief system being the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]], a religion that had existed on [[Tatooine]] among the Jawas but had been struggling for intergalactic prominence. While being a secular organization, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises defended this move stating that it was neccesary for their independence and profits that the business and its people were not subject to any human religious authority.<br />
<br />
===Battle of Nimban===<br />
[[File:Jawameridianbattle.png|right]]<br />
:''Main article: [[Battle of Nimban]]''<br />
The '''Battle of Nimban''' also know as '''"Bopom Kova Upezzo M’tuske"''' among the Jawas was a major operation that saw the group shift increasingly militant as well as resulting in a number of alliances. After the Jawa Offworld Enterprises entered into an agreement with the '''ZooKeeper Alliance''' to provide assistance for their scientific research endeavors groups of Jawa fighter wings and research teams were seen increasingly flying alongside ZooKeeper vessels. This was most prominent in the Nimban system, an outer rim system where the ZooKeeper Alliance was conducting much of their research. However, the rival scientific organization the '''DNA Bashers''' had also been increasingly moving their own military presence into the system in direct opposition to the ZooKeeper Alliance. After several weeks of growing tensions, things escalated into an all out battle between these two major scientific organizations as well as their allied forces.<br />
<br />
Rather than directly focusing on directly attacking enemy forces the Jawa crews quickly organized into a number of different salvaging crews. These salvaging crews focused on the recovery and extraction of key tactical assets from the battlefield, such as preserving the lives of the ZooKeeper Alliance research crews and their research equipment. After several days of operating, with many Jawas going sleepless nights thanks to modern stimulant technology, things escalated further with the DNA Bashers revealing a super weapon that they had been developing in the system. This super weapon was a duo Battle-class Meridian Frigate, a beast of a ship which packed the punch of a battle moon while moving about as fast. As a part of a joint attack with assistance indirectly from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] as well as the newly found friends in [[Chir`dorna Manufacturing]], an elite Jawa salvaging team led by [[Jic Uiji]] managed to evade the volleys of blaster fire and board one of the craft. After fighting their way to the bridge the Jawas managed to take control of the craft and to pull it out of the battle. However, it had sustained serious damage to nearly every system and it has not yet even closely returned to its full operational capacity. Not having the original schematics the Jawa repair teams were only able to return the ship to its original state as operating as a Meridian-class Frigate. Becoming the unofficial flagship of the JOE fleet, this ship has become known as the "Mary Dean" in honor of the nickname given to it by [[St'eve]], a Jawa fighter pilot who died at the Battle of Nimban.<br />

<br />
After war was declared on Jawa Offworld Enterprises by the [[Galactic Empire]], and worst of all trade sanctions, the Jawa collective was drawn into conflict with the Empire. Initially this resulted in a number of minor skirmishes with no major impact to either side; however, as hostilities grew the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were increasingly looking for ways to profit from this war until peace could be made. As such, when rebellion broke out in the Corellian sector the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were some of the first on the scene. Making use of the shadow trade routes created in order to dodge imperial trade sanctions as well as their expertise in unusual operations the Jawas managed to expertly operate around hostile forces and and ensure that planetary defenses were created on rebelling planets in order to repel the coming imperial fleets and legions. Many of these operations were focused on the securing of the planet [[Sasan]] in the [[New Plympto (System)|New Plympto]] system, with the planet's scorching temperatures allowing Jawas to work far longer hours and more effectively than the Corellians trying the same. Working in cooperation with a number of pro-Corellian independence groups Jawa Offworld Enterprises was able to secure [[Sasan]] as well as several other nearby rebelling planets from invasion.<br />
<br />
With there being relatively minimal local population on Sasan, with most of the planetary population evacuating to the safer and more hospitable planet of [[New Plympto (Planet)|New Plympto]], the Jawa Offworld Enterprises took control of the planetary governance with permission of the alliance for Corellian independence. The Corellian people were notably sympathetic to the plight of Jawas around the galaxy and it was deemed best for the security of the planet and system if it was inhabited by a race which could better withstand the hot climate. Within days of this announcement, laws lowering the the sales and income taxes were put into effect. <br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
[[File:Joetrenchant.png|right]]<br />
{{Quote<br />
|quote = For decades, we have struggled, at times openly and at times covertly, against external interference on Tatooine. For eons the planet was open to all, allowing free trade and cultural exchange until galactic governments took advantage of our openness and restricted our way of life, culminating in the exodus of Jawa to look for better prospects. Now, we are the ones that took advantage. The clans once again control our ancestral planet, and we will work tirelessly to bring it back to its former glory free of oppression. <br />
|person = [[Ini Kedi]] speaking after the liberation of Tatooine.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Following the fall of the [[New Republic]] and the occupation of [[Tatooine]] by the [[Galactic Empire]], JOE deployed a large number of Jawas back to the planet from offworld. These Jawa's were tasked with ensuring that Jawa trade to and from Tatooine would continue despite the circumstances. These initial smuggling operations quickly escalated with the Jawa group deciding to devote significant resources to effectively creating a shadow government on the planet, filling the void left by the largely ineffective imperial appointees. Through the assistance of the shadowy robed figures of the [[Jawa Liberation Front]] as well as the pressure placed on the [[Galactic Empire]] throughout the [[Arkanis]] sector by [[The Resistance]] the imperial forces eventually pulled out entirely, leaving the Jawas free to seize power in the vacuum and take control of the planet and its defense installations.<br />
<br />
==Structure==<br />
<br />
The structure of JOE is largely divided into two separate parts, typically referred to as JOE Businesses and JOE Command. JOE Businesses make up the bulk of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, and covers the many different individual Jawa enterprises which have been invested in and assisted by JOE. On the other hand, JOE command is the umbrella organization that ensures the prosperity of the JOE businesses as well as handling the coordination for Jawa efforts on larger operations. However, there is often a large degree of overlap between the two sections and individual Jawas often work in both JOE Command and specific JOE Businesses.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has repeatedly stated that it is their intention to trade freely with every sentient in the galaxy regardless of their political affiliation or location. However, due to a number of high profile diplomatic incidents as well as translation errors by faulty protocol droids the group of Jawas have found themselves navigating often turbulous diplomatic environments. There have been many incidents of this sort which never transpired into anything larger, most notable of which was a threat of war and trade sanctions from a member of the [[Galactic Alliance]] during the [[Battle of Nimban]] as well as an incident with a separate government over the question of droid theft. However, not all diplomatic incidents managed to be quickly resolved. The [[Galactic Empire]] famously declared war on JOE and placed trade sanctions against them only days after the founding of the group, likely a result of JOE being vehemently pro Jawa and alien rights as well as the history of [[Jic Uiji]] as an enemy of the empire. <br />
<br />
===Politics of Tatooine===<br />
<br />
While effectively in a position of governance, the Jawa corporation has little interest in the day to day legalities which are normally entailed in that position. Instead JOE focuses primarily on controlling the economic policies of the planet as a whole and on creating an environment that is ultimately better for Jawa business. Matters such as what constitutes a crime, construction of social projects, and enforcement of laws is typically handled by local governance which varies widely based on the planetary area.<br />
<br />
==Organizations==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has a large number of Jawa organizations that it is affiliated with. The exact relationship between each of them and Jawa Offworld Enterprises as a whole will vary.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
:''Main article: [[Jawa Industrial Magi]]''<br />
<br />
Born out of the shamans, wise men, and religions of Tatooine are the Jawa Industrial Magi. Despite parts of this religion dating back as far as Jawa records go, this incarcenation is much more recent. With a focus on taking ancient traditions into the future through technology and industry, the Jawa Industrial Magi were founded. Practitioners of this religion vary greatly in beliefs, with the many existing conflicting records of the teaching of various Gods and prophets leading to greatly differing beliefs. <br />
<br />
Due to worries over conversion of Jawas, typically done by members of [[Alissma]] or [[Zhellic Ecclesiarchy]] by restricting business with those who followed other religions, [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] pushed to ensure that a religious institute would exist on the galactic scale for the Jawa people. The Magi provide support Jawas to follow their religion wherever they may be as well as handling many of the more charitable operations JOE has.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Outer Colonies===<br />
<br />
Formed out of the [[Veilhal Nomads]], Jawa Outer Colonies exists primarily to ensure that the increasingly diverse worlds governed by Jawa economic rule are protected and profitable.<br />
<br />
===Twin Suns Trading===<br />
<br />
Twin Suns Trading opened for business on year 21 day 76 after savvy businesjawa Zu Icaz traded a droid to the failing owners and set to turn the business around from scrap to splendor as is the Jawa way. Bringing trade to the outer rim and beyond, we look to serve the galaxy with unsurpassed Jawa quality goods. All sentients, especially Jawas, should have access to safe markets and affordable transportation through our Starports for conducting their business Offworld.<br />
<br />
One of the more traditional "businesses" under the JOE umbrella TST primarily seeks to develop trading infrastructure for sentients across the galaxy. <br />
<br />
===Sarlacc Integrated Design===<br />
<br />
A business run by [[Kolomon Seph]], the Sarlacc Pit seeks to customize what are often humancentric designed items and make them into something which is better functioning for the unique situations in the galaxy. This usually includes specialized equipment for the [[Jawa]] people, with the Sarlacc Pit being responsible for much of the research into Jawa armour, weapon, tool, and ship design. This would eventually reform into the much larger business known as [[Sarlacc Integrated Design]] which is presently led by [[Bif Beefi]] and is mainly based on the moon of [[Chenini]], one of the three moons of [[Tatooine]].<br />
<br />
[[File:SIDMH.png]]<br />
<br />
===Jawa Enforcement & Forensics Force===<br />
<br />
A recently formed arm of JOE, JEFF serves to organize policing efforts in the [[Tatoo]] system and to track down criminals who pose a threat to the Jawa way of life.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Advanced Resource Exploitation Directorate (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
The mining arm of JOE, JARED played a key role in establishing successful Jawa industry on Tatooine. Ran by [[Wizz Eeeklee]] it mined luxurious minerals such as Duracrete and Ryll. Eventually JARED would unceremoniously dissolve after the dirt haulers in several colonies unionized and lead a large strike, eventually seizing JARED's headquarters and forcing the business into bankruptcy. Attempts to reclaim JARED's headquarters have been largely unsuccessful, with the dirt haulers union having held out against a siege since late Y21 with no signs of stopping. The union strikers are rumored to have used their mining equipment to construct an elaborate series of tunnels to smuggle food and items in and out of the headquarters.<br />
<br />
===Maker's Offworld Medical (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A joint business partnership with the [[Gordian Reach Authority]] led by [[Hazamuzee Seph]], [[Maker's Offworld Medical]] is a medical operation with a focus on taking the often human focused field of medicine and adapting it for Jawa needs. Group later went bankrupt after producing enough medicine to cure the entire Jawa population of certain transmitted diseases several times over, reducing demand dramatically.<br />
<br />
===Xenoarchaeological Institute (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A brief lived Jawa takeover, XI was primarily used to investigate ruins related to the [[Jawa]] people. Due to it being forbidden for non-Jawa to view the sacred remains of any Jawa it was important for the archaeological institute to be overseen by [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] during this time. It was eventually disbanded due to the Jawas running out of historical sites that were easy to find.<br />
<br />
==Employee Of The Month==<br />
<br />
A great title and honor, bestowed upon members of Jawa Offworld Enterprises who rise above the rest and demonstrate exemplary ability in the workplace. This signifies that a Jawa is not just skilled but also has a tremendous work ethic, one that will likely take them far in the galaxy.<br />
<br />
===Past Employees Of The Month===<br />
<br />
[[Tilba Ugama]] for spearheading the recycling initiatives at [[Dalisor]].<br />
<br />
[[Wizz Eeeklee]] for pioneering new techniques in locating asteroid fields.<br />
<br />
[[Siel Starrunner]] for providing assistance in the Jawa swap meet preparation.<br />
<br />
[[Zikkan Jaziik]] for ensuring the smooth operations of vital infrastructure projects on [[Tatooine]] during the transitional period in the government.<br />

}}<br />
'''Jawa Offworld Enterprises''' is a megacorporation which primarily profits through the investment in and creation of [[Jawa]] business ventures. Despite only recently having been created the business quickly rose to prominence in the galaxy, being at the center of a number of galactic events. This has been largely attributed by the group to the natural skill at conducting business possessed by the [[Jawa]] people. Ironically, the group of "offworld" Jawas has had considerable activity focused on their homeworld of [[Tatooine]], after assuming control of the planet in mid [[Year 21]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Origins===<br />
<br />
The origins of the Jawa Offworld Enterprises traces back to a number of different movements related to sentient rights of Jawa's and other short of stature species. Starting off with the likes of legendary Jawas [[Het Patchateeka]], [[Uli-ah Gafsa]], [[Heek Jikjawa]], and [[Tik Tak]] a number of pro-Jawa initiatives were attempted with the goal of assisting Jawas who left behind their homeland of [[Tatooine]]. However, due to a number of high profile legal cases, murders, and other disappearances all of these Jawas faded from the public eye almost entirely by around Y18. This led to the formation of two different groups which sought to advance the Jawa cause, the '''Jawa Society''' in Y18 as well as the '''League of Extraordinary Small Sentients''' in Y19, otherwise known as '''LESS'''. It was from these two groups and several unfortunate incidents that [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] managed to achieve the necessary capital as well as enough Jawa employees to launch their first business ventures.<br />
<br />
====Jawa Society====<br />
<br />
The Jawa Society was a grouping of Jawas of intergalactic prominence with the goal of providing community and assistance for Jawas. Formed by Jawas [[Jic Uiji]], [[Garik Loren]], [[Greyson Abrams]], [[Eugene Delmarco]], and [[Christine Apotheosis]] in early Y18 the group successfully launched a number of pro-Jawa initiatives like providing safe sandcrawler housing for Jawas around the galaxy. Sadly, after the death of [[Garik Loren]] after a politically motivated murder, the departure of [[Christine Apotheosis]], and increasing rumors of [[Greyson Abrams]] having plans of eugenics for the Jawa race the Jawa Society as a whole was in an increasingly weakened state and one which no longer had support across the galactic political spectrum. This led to a large amount of the pro-Jawa operations being purely done by [[Jic Uiji]], who was at the time the Governor of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] overseeing the [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] rule of the planet. As such most of the Jawa initiatives were in the form of supporting Jawa immigration to the mostly desert planet of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] and the success of Jawas on the planet. After [[Jic Uiji]] was crippled by unidentified assailants during a routine "trip" to the galactic core, his influence in the pirate collective quickly diminished and he was forced into early retirement by his crew from both his position as a captain and as governor. This led to an effective ceasing of many pro-Jawa initiatives in [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] territory.<br />
<br />
====League of Extraordinary Small Sentients====<br />
<br />
The League of Extraordinary Small Sentients was focused not just on the success of Jawas, but rather all sentient species that were deemed "small". However, in practice, this effectively meant [[Chadra-Fan]], [[Ewok]], and [[Jawa]] sentients were assisted. This was due in no small part to the main 4 members of LESS, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], [[Ini Kedi]], and [[Kolomon Seph]]. After briefly existing purely as a sentient rights group most of the members reformed into a recycling corporation known at the time as [[Raas-Moretti Industries]] in partnership with [[Moretti'ameli'arose]], who was otherwise known as [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. This group successfully operated for a number of months in no small part due to the incredible business skill of its Jawa members; however, things did not last. After [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], who was not a member of the group but allied with it under the [[Galactica Group]], along with [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], co-leader of the organization, plotted and succesfully carried out the murder of [[Moretti'ameli'arose]] due to claimed "Overreach by the tall people into business operations" the business effectively ceased to exist. This move did not instill confidence in the employees of the organization that they would survive much longer if they remained, and within a month every major employee, largely the Jawa duo [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] had left for some reason. <br />
<br />
====Formation====<br />
<br />
With [[Jic Uiji]] from the Jawa Society along with [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] from LESS all recently disenfranchised for some reason it was a seemingly perfect time for events to transpire. With most of them having worked together before, it was no surprise that they felt that they as a group had the experience to start a new business venture. After meeting in what is rumored to be a Jawa only diner in the northeast rim the group sat down and after hours of negotiations formed the creation contracts of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, an organization ran by Jawas and for Jawas so that their people could prosper. Of course, the contracts included a number of clauses so that they could prosper extensively themselves. Within hours of signing the contracts, the trio went public with their announcement of the formation on Year 19 Day 362.<br />
<br />
===Deep Space===<br />
<br />
Looking to establish some form of base out of which to operate and live, the Jawas spent several weeks debating where Jawas could best settle off of [[Tatooine]]. Eventually it was determined that no matter where they went they would be subject to the rule of those who are not Jawas, and that was unacceptable to them. As such, the group went out into the great cold unknowns and established an area in which they could operate. Outside of any legitimate governmental jurisdiction, the group settled among the asteroid fields of the northeastern rim. This deep space location was where almost all JOE trade passed through, largely for tax reasons. This took a significant toll on many of the Jawas, who yearned for the heat of suns on their skin again. As such, many Jawas were motivated to enlist into expeditions for a planet that they could call their own and settle on.<br />
<br />
===Industrial Salvage===<br />
<br />
The groups first major operation was that of the salvaging of an estimated 20% of of the infrastructure of the planet [[Dalisor]], infrastructure that was deemed to be outdated and unsafe to live in. With a salvaging team primarily led by [[Tilba Ugama]], a Jawa who was fresh off of Tatooine, the group managed to to clear out kilotons of building materials. Most of these materials went directly to smaller Jawa businesses operating under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises umbrella, which repurposed everything they could for resale. It was in this period of mass wrecking/salvaging that Jawa Offworld Enterprises briefly spent several months as controlling a majority of the salvaging market, even though after receiving payment the group decided to move into more lucrative industries. This also saw the rise of [[Tilba Ugama]] to prominence in the organization.<br />
<br />
===The New Tent Order to Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
<br />
After hearing of rumored instability in the [[New Tent Order]], a religious organization which gained surprising prominence, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises decided to capitalize on the situation for the benefit of the Jawa race. Large numbers of Jawas were sent to register as devout believers of the New Tent Order moments before the heretic [[Fleuf Naze]] embarked on a suicidal quest to the center of a black hole. With the next leader being unclear, the Jawas were able to swing the public opinion and voting in favor of [[Jic Uiji]]. As the newly chosen tent leader, Jic Uiji took control of all tent order temples, churches, religious artifacts, and other assets before declaring that the group was reforming to an entirely different belief system. This belief system being the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]], a religion that had existed on [[Tatooine]] among the Jawas but had been struggling for intergalactic prominence. While being a secular organization, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises defended this move stating that it was neccesary for their independence and profits that the business and its people were not subject to any human religious authority.<br />
<br />
===Battle of Nimban===<br />
[[File:Jawameridianbattle.png|right]]<br />
:''Main article: [[Battle of Nimban]]''<br />
The '''Battle of Nimban''' also know as '''"Bopom Kova Upezzo M’tuske"''' among the Jawas was a major operation that saw the group shift increasingly militant as well as resulting in a number of alliances. After the Jawa Offworld Enterprises entered into an agreement with the '''ZooKeeper Alliance''' to provide assistance for their scientific research endeavors groups of Jawa fighter wings and research teams were seen increasingly flying alongside ZooKeeper vessels. This was most prominent in the Nimban system, an outer rim system where the ZooKeeper Alliance was conducting much of their research. However, the rival scientific organization the '''DNA Bashers''' had also been increasingly moving their own military presence into the system in direct opposition to the ZooKeeper Alliance. After several weeks of growing tensions, things escalated into an all out battle between these two major scientific organizations as well as their allied forces.<br />
<br />
Rather than directly focusing on directly attacking enemy forces the Jawa crews quickly organized into a number of different salvaging crews. These salvaging crews focused on the recovery and extraction of key tactical assets from the battlefield, such as preserving the lives of the ZooKeeper Alliance research crews and their research equipment. After several days of operating, with many Jawas going sleepless nights thanks to modern stimulant technology, things escalated further with the DNA Bashers revealing a super weapon that they had been developing in the system. This super weapon was a duo Battle-class Meridian Frigate, a beast of a ship which packed the punch of a battle moon while moving about as fast. As a part of a joint attack with assistance indirectly from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] as well as the newly found friends in [[Chir`dorna Manufacturing]], an elite Jawa salvaging team led by [[Jic Uiji]] managed to evade the volleys of blaster fire and board one of the craft. After fighting their way to the bridge the Jawas managed to take control of the craft and to pull it out of the battle. However, it had sustained serious damage to nearly every system and it has not yet even closely returned to its full operational capacity. Not having the original schematics the Jawa repair teams were only able to return the ship to its original state as operating as a Meridian-class Frigate. Becoming the unofficial flagship of the JOE fleet, this ship has become known as the "Mary Dean" in honor of the nickname given to it by [[St'eve]], a Jawa fighter pilot who died at the Battle of Nimban.<br />
<br />
===Sasan===<br />
[[File:Jawacouncil.png|left]]<br />
<br />
After war was declared on Jawa Offworld Enterprises by the [[Galactic Empire]], and worst of all trade sanctions, the Jawa collective was drawn into conflict with the Empire. Initially this resulted in a number of minor skirmishes with no major impact to either side; however, as hostilities grew the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were increasingly looking for ways to profit from this war until peace could be made. As such, when rebellion broke out in the Corellian sector the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were some of the first on the scene. Making use of the shadow trade routes created in order to dodge imperial trade sanctions as well as their expertise in unusual operations the Jawas managed to expertly operate around hostile forces and and ensure that planetary defenses were created on rebelling planets in order to repel the coming imperial fleets and legions. Many of these operations were focused on the securing of the planet [[Sasan]] in the [[New Plympto (System)|New Plympto]] system, with the planet's scorching temperatures allowing Jawas to work far longer hours and more effectively than the Corellians trying the same. Working in cooperation with a number of pro-Corellian independence groups Jawa Offworld Enterprises was able to secure [[Sasan]] as well as several other nearby rebelling planets from invasion.<br />
<br />
With there being relatively minimal local population on Sasan, with most of the planetary population evacuating to the safer and more hospitable planet of [[New Plympto (Planet)|New Plympto]], the Jawa Offworld Enterprises took control of the planetary governance with permission of the alliance for Corellian independence. The Corellian people were notably sympathetic to the plight of Jawas around the galaxy and it was deemed best for the security of the planet and system if it was inhabited by a race which could better withstand the hot climate. Within days of this announcement, laws lowering the the sales and income taxes were put into effect. <br />

<br />
Following the fall of the [[New Republic]] and the occupation of [[Tatooine]] by the [[Galactic Empire]], JOE deployed a large number of Jawas back to the planet from offworld. These Jawa's were tasked with ensuring that Jawa trade to and from Tatooine would continue despite the circumstances. These initial smuggling operations quickly escalated with the Jawa group deciding to devote significant resources to effectively creating a shadow government on the planet, filling the void left by the largely ineffective imperial appointees. Through the assistance of the shadowy robed figures of the [[Jawa Liberation Front]] as well as the pressure placed on the [[Galactic Empire]] throughout the [[Arkanis]] sector by [[The Resistance]] the imperial forces eventually pulled out entirely, leaving the Jawas free to seize power in the vacuum and take control of the planet and its defense installations.<br />
<br />
==Structure==<br />
<br />
The structure of JOE is largely divided into two separate parts, typically referred to as JOE Businesses and JOE Command. JOE Businesses make up the bulk of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, and covers the many different individual Jawa enterprises which have been invested in and assisted by JOE. On the other hand, JOE command is the umbrella organization that ensures the prosperity of the JOE businesses as well as handling the coordination for Jawa efforts on larger operations. However, there is often a large degree of overlap between the two sections and individual Jawas often work in both JOE Command and specific JOE Businesses.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has repeatedly stated that it is their intention to trade freely with every sentient in the galaxy regardless of their political affiliation or location. However, due to a number of high profile diplomatic incidents as well as translation errors by faulty protocol droids the group of Jawas have found themselves navigating often turbulous diplomatic environments. There have been many incidents of this sort which never transpired into anything larger, most notable of which was a threat of war and trade sanctions from a member of the [[Galactic Alliance]] during the [[Battle of Nimban]] as well as an incident with a separate government over the question of droid theft. However, not all diplomatic incidents managed to be quickly resolved. The [[Galactic Empire]] famously declared war on JOE and placed trade sanctions against them only days after the founding of the group, likely a result of JOE being vehemently pro Jawa and alien rights as well as the history of [[Jic Uiji]] as an enemy of the empire. <br />
<br />
===Politics of Tatooine===<br />
<br />
While effectively in a position of governance, the Jawa corporation has little interest in the day to day legalities which are normally entailed in that position. Instead JOE focuses primarily on controlling the economic policies of the planet as a whole and on creating an environment that is ultimately better for Jawa business. Matters such as what constitutes a crime, construction of social projects, and enforcement of laws is typically handled by local governance which varies widely based on the planetary area.<br />
<br />
==Organizations==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has a large number of Jawa organizations that it is affiliated with. The exact relationship between each of them and Jawa Offworld Enterprises as a whole will vary.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
:''Main article: [[Jawa Industrial Magi]]''<br />
<br />
Born out of the shamans, wise men, and religions of Tatooine are the Jawa Industrial Magi. Despite parts of this religion dating back as far as Jawa records go, this incarcenation is much more recent. With a focus on taking ancient traditions into the future through technology and industry, the Jawa Industrial Magi were founded. Practitioners of this religion vary greatly in beliefs, with the many existing conflicting records of the teaching of various Gods and prophets leading to greatly differing beliefs. <br />
<br />
Due to worries over conversion of Jawas, typically done by members of [[Alissma]] or [[Zhellic Ecclesiarchy]] by restricting business with those who followed other religions, [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] pushed to ensure that a religious institute would exist on the galactic scale for the Jawa people. The Magi provide support Jawas to follow their religion wherever they may be as well as handling many of the more charitable operations JOE has.<br />
<br />
===Twin Suns Trading===<br />
<br />
Twin Suns Trading opened for business on year 21 day 76 after savvy businesjawa Zu Icaz traded a droid to the failing owners and set to turn the business around from scrap to splendor as is the Jawa way. Bringing trade to the outer rim and beyond, we look to serve the galaxy with unsurpassed Jawa quality goods. All sentients, especially Jawas, should have access to safe markets and affordable transportation through our Starports for conducting their business Offworld.<br />
<br />
One of the more traditional "businesses" under the JOE umbrella TST primarily seeks to develop trading infrastructure for sentients across the galaxy. <br />
<br />
===Sarlacc Integrated Design===<br />
<br />
A business run by [[Kolomon Seph]], the Sarlacc Pit seeks to customize what are often humancentric designed items and make them into something which is better functioning for the unique situations in the galaxy. This usually includes specialized equipment for the [[Jawa]] people, with the Sarlacc Pit being responsible for much of the research into Jawa armour, weapon, tool, and ship design. This would eventually reform into the much larger business known as [[Sarlacc Integrated Design]] which is presently led by [[Bif Beefi]] and is mainly based on the moon of [[Chenini]], one of the three moons of [[Tatooine]].<br />
<br />
[[File:SIDMH.png]]<br />
<br />
===Jawa Enforcement & Forensics Force===<br />
<br />
A recently formed arm of JOE, JEFF serves to organize policing efforts in the [[Tatoo]] system and to track down criminals who pose a threat to the Jawa way of life.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Advanced Resource Exploitation Directorate (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
The mining arm of JOE, JARED played a key role in establishing successful Jawa industry on Tatooine. Ran by [[Wizz Eeeklee]] it mined luxurious minerals such as Duracrete and Ryll. Eventually JARED would unceremoniously dissolve after the dirt haulers in several colonies unionized and lead a large strike, eventually seizing JARED's headquarters and forcing the business into bankruptcy. Attempts to reclaim JARED's headquarters have been largely unsuccessful, with the dirt haulers union having held out against a siege since late Y21 with no signs of stopping. The union strikers are rumored to have used their mining equipment to construct an elaborate series of tunnels to smuggle food and items in and out of the headquarters.<br />
<br />
===Maker's Offworld Medical (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A joint business partnership with the [[Gordian Reach Authority]] led by [[Hazamuzee Seph]], [[Maker's Offworld Medical]] is a medical operation with a focus on taking the often human focused field of medicine and adapting it for Jawa needs. Group later went bankrupt after producing enough medicine to cure the entire Jawa population of certain transmitted diseases several times over, reducing demand dramatically.<br />
<br />
===Xenoarchaeological Institute (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A brief lived Jawa takeover, XI was primarily used to investigate ruins related to the [[Jawa]] people. Due to it being forbidden for non-Jawa to view the sacred remains of any Jawa it was important for the archaeological institute to be overseen by [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] during this time. It was eventually disbanded due to the Jawas running out of historical sites that were easy to find.<br />
<br />
==Employee Of The Month==<br />
<br />
A great title and honor, bestowed upon members of Jawa Offworld Enterprises who rise above the rest and demonstrate exemplary ability in the workplace. This signifies that a Jawa is not just skilled but also has a tremendous work ethic, one that will likely take them far in the galaxy.<br />
<br />
===Past Employees Of The Month===<br />
<br />
[[Tilba Ugama]] for spearheading the recycling initiatives at [[Dalisor]].<br />
<br />
[[Wizz Eeeklee]] for pioneering new techniques in locating asteroid fields.<br />
<br />
[[Siel Starrunner]] for providing assistance in the Jawa swap meet preparation.<br />
<br />

}}<br />
'''Jawa Offworld Enterprises''' is a megacorporation which primarily profits through the investment in and creation of [[Jawa]] business ventures. Despite only recently having been created the business quickly rose to prominence in the galaxy, being at the center of a number of galactic events. This has been largely attributed by the group to the natural skill at conducting business possessed by the [[Jawa]] people. Ironically, the group of "offworld" Jawas has had considerable activity focused on their homeworld of [[Tatooine]], after assuming control of the planet in mid [[Year 21]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Origins===<br />
<br />
The origins of the Jawa Offworld Enterprises traces back to a number of different movements related to sentient rights of Jawa's and other short of stature species. Starting off with the likes of legendary Jawas [[Het Patchateeka]], [[Uli-ah Gafsa]], [[Heek Jikjawa]], and [[Tik Tak]] a number of pro-Jawa initiatives were attempted with the goal of assisting Jawas who left behind their homeland of [[Tatooine]]. However, due to a number of high profile legal cases, murders, and other disappearances all of these Jawas faded from the public eye almost entirely by around Y18. This led to the formation of two different groups which sought to advance the Jawa cause, the '''Jawa Society''' in Y18 as well as the '''League of Extraordinary Small Sentients''' in Y19, otherwise known as '''LESS'''. It was from these two groups and several unfortunate incidents that [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] managed to achieve the necessary capital as well as enough Jawa employees to launch their first business ventures.<br />
<br />
====Jawa Society====<br />
<br />
The Jawa Society was a grouping of Jawas of intergalactic prominence with the goal of providing community and assistance for Jawas. Formed by Jawas [[Jic Uiji]], [[Garik Loren]], [[Greyson Abrams]], [[Eugene Delmarco]], and [[Christine Apotheosis]] in early Y18 the group successfully launched a number of pro-Jawa initiatives like providing safe sandcrawler housing for Jawas around the galaxy. Sadly, after the death of [[Garik Loren]] after a politically motivated murder, the departure of [[Christine Apotheosis]], and increasing rumors of [[Greyson Abrams]] having plans of eugenics for the Jawa race the Jawa Society as a whole was in an increasingly weakened state and one which no longer had support across the galactic political spectrum. This led to a large amount of the pro-Jawa operations being purely done by [[Jic Uiji]], who was at the time the Governor of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] overseeing the [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] rule of the planet. As such most of the Jawa initiatives were in the form of supporting Jawa immigration to the mostly desert planet of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] and the success of Jawas on the planet. After [[Jic Uiji]] was crippled by unidentified assailants during a routine "trip" to the galactic core, his influence in the pirate collective quickly diminished and he was forced into early retirement by his crew from both his position as a captain and as governor. This led to an effective ceasing of many pro-Jawa initiatives in [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] territory.<br />
<br />
====League of Extraordinary Small Sentients====<br />
<br />
The League of Extraordinary Small Sentients was focused not just on the success of Jawas, but rather all sentient species that were deemed "small". However, in practice, this effectively meant [[Chadra-Fan]], [[Ewok]], and [[Jawa]] sentients were assisted. This was due in no small part to the main 4 members of LESS, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], [[Ini Kedi]], and [[Kolomon Seph]]. After briefly existing purely as a sentient rights group most of the members reformed into a recycling corporation known at the time as [[Raas-Moretti Industries]] in partnership with [[Moretti'ameli'arose]], who was otherwise known as [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. This group successfully operated for a number of months in no small part due to the incredible business skill of its Jawa members; however, things did not last. After [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], who was not a member of the group but allied with it under the [[Galactica Group]], along with [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], co-leader of the organization, plotted and succesfully carried out the murder of [[Moretti'ameli'arose]] due to claimed "Overreach by the tall people into business operations" the business effectively ceased to exist. This move did not instill confidence in the employees of the organization that they would survive much longer if they remained, and within a month every major employee, largely the Jawa duo [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] had left for some reason. <br />
<br />
====Formation====<br />
<br />
With [[Jic Uiji]] from the Jawa Society along with [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] from LESS all recently disenfranchised for some reason it was a seemingly perfect time for events to transpire. With most of them having worked together before, it was no surprise that they felt that they as a group had the experience to start a new business venture. After meeting in what is rumored to be a Jawa only diner in the northeast rim the group sat down and after hours of negotiations formed the creation contracts of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, an organization ran by Jawas and for Jawas so that their people could prosper. Of course, the contracts included a number of clauses so that they could prosper extensively themselves. Within hours of signing the contracts, the trio went public with their announcement of the formation on Year 19 Day 362.<br />
<br />
===Deep Space===<br />
<br />
Looking to establish some form of base out of which to operate and live, the Jawas spent several weeks debating where Jawas could best settle off of [[Tatooine]]. Eventually it was determined that no matter where they went they would be subject to the rule of those who are not Jawas, and that was unacceptable to them. As such, the group went out into the great cold unknowns and established an area in which they could operate. Outside of any legitimate governmental jurisdiction, the group settled among the asteroid fields of the northeastern rim. This deep space location was where almost all JOE trade passed through, largely for tax reasons. This took a significant toll on many of the Jawas, who yearned for the heat of suns on their skin again. As such, many Jawas were motivated to enlist into expeditions for a planet that they could call their own and settle on.<br />
<br />
===Industrial Salvage===<br />
<br />
The groups first major operation was that of the salvaging of an estimated 20% of of the infrastructure of the planet [[Dalisor]], infrastructure that was deemed to be outdated and unsafe to live in. With a salvaging team primarily led by [[Tilba Ugama]], a Jawa who was fresh off of Tatooine, the group managed to to clear out kilotons of building materials. Most of these materials went directly to smaller Jawa businesses operating under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises umbrella, which repurposed everything they could for resale. It was in this period of mass wrecking/salvaging that Jawa Offworld Enterprises briefly spent several months as controlling a majority of the salvaging market, even though after receiving payment the group decided to move into more lucrative industries. This also saw the rise of [[Tilba Ugama]] to prominence in the organization.<br />
<br />
===The New Tent Order to Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
<br />
After hearing of rumored instability in the [[New Tent Order]], a religious organization which gained surprising prominence, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises decided to capitalize on the situation for the benefit of the Jawa race. Large numbers of Jawas were sent to register as devout believers of the New Tent Order moments before the heretic [[Fleuf Naze]] embarked on a suicidal quest to the center of a black hole. With the next leader being unclear, the Jawas were able to swing the public opinion and voting in favor of [[Jic Uiji]]. As the newly chosen tent leader, Jic Uiji took control of all tent order temples, churches, religious artifacts, and other assets before declaring that the group was reforming to an entirely different belief system. This belief system being the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]], a religion that had existed on [[Tatooine]] among the Jawas but had been struggling for intergalactic prominence. While being a secular organization, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises defended this move stating that it was neccesary for their independence and profits that the business and its people were not subject to any human religious authority.<br />
<br />
===Battle of Nimban===<br />
[[File:Jawameridianbattle.png|right]]<br />
:''Main article: [[Battle of Nimban]]''<br />
The '''Battle of Nimban''' also know as '''"Bopom Kova Upezzo M’tuske"''' among the Jawas was a major operation that saw the group shift increasingly militant as well as resulting in a number of alliances. After the Jawa Offworld Enterprises entered into an agreement with the '''ZooKeeper Alliance''' to provide assistance for their scientific research endeavors groups of Jawa fighter wings and research teams were seen increasingly flying alongside ZooKeeper vessels. This was most prominent in the Nimban system, an outer rim system where the ZooKeeper Alliance was conducting much of their research. However, the rival scientific organization the '''DNA Bashers''' had also been increasingly moving their own military presence into the system in direct opposition to the ZooKeeper Alliance. After several weeks of growing tensions, things escalated into an all out battle between these two major scientific organizations as well as their allied forces.<br />
<br />
Rather than directly focusing on directly attacking enemy forces the Jawa crews quickly organized into a number of different salvaging crews. These salvaging crews focused on the recovery and extraction of key tactical assets from the battlefield, such as preserving the lives of the ZooKeeper Alliance research crews and their research equipment. After several days of operating, with many Jawas going sleepless nights thanks to modern stimulant technology, things escalated further with the DNA Bashers revealing a super weapon that they had been developing in the system. This super weapon was a duo Battle-class Meridian Frigate, a beast of a ship which packed the punch of a battle moon while moving about as fast. As a part of a joint attack with assistance indirectly from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] as well as the newly found friends in [[Chir`dorna Manufacturing]], an elite Jawa salvaging team led by [[Jic Uiji]] managed to evade the volleys of blaster fire and board one of the craft. After fighting their way to the bridge the Jawas managed to take control of the craft and to pull it out of the battle. However, it had sustained serious damage to nearly every system and it has not yet even closely returned to its full operational capacity. Not having the original schematics the Jawa repair teams were only able to return the ship to its original state as operating as a Meridian-class Frigate. Becoming the unofficial flagship of the JOE fleet, this ship has become known as the "Mary Dean" in honor of the nickname given to it by [[St'eve]], a Jawa fighter pilot who died at the Battle of Nimban.<br />
<br />
===Sasan===<br />
[[File:Jawacouncil.png|left]]<br />
<br />
After war was declared on Jawa Offworld Enterprises by the [[Galactic Empire]], and worst of all trade sanctions, the Jawa collective was drawn into conflict with the Empire. Initially this resulted in a number of minor skirmishes with no major impact to either side; however, as hostilities grew the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were increasingly looking for ways to profit from this war until peace could be made. As such, when rebellion broke out in the Corellian sector the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were some of the first on the scene. Making use of the shadow trade routes created in order to dodge imperial trade sanctions as well as their expertise in unusual operations the Jawas managed to expertly operate around hostile forces and and ensure that planetary defenses were created on rebelling planets in order to repel the coming imperial fleets and legions. Many of these operations were focused on the securing of the planet [[Sasan]] in the [[New Plympto (System)|New Plympto]] system, with the planet's scorching temperatures allowing Jawas to work far longer hours and more effectively than the Corellians trying the same. Working in cooperation with a number of pro-Corellian independence groups Jawa Offworld Enterprises was able to secure [[Sasan]] as well as several other nearby rebelling planets from invasion.<br />
<br />
With there being relatively minimal local population on Sasan, with most of the planetary population evacuating to the safer and more hospitable planet of [[New Plympto (Planet)|New Plympto]], the Jawa Offworld Enterprises took control of the planetary governance with permission of the alliance for Corellian independence. The Corellian people were notably sympathetic to the plight of Jawas around the galaxy and it was deemed best for the security of the planet and system if it was inhabited by a race which could better withstand the hot climate. Within days of this announcement, laws lowering the the sales and income taxes were put into effect. <br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />

<br />
Following the fall of the [[New Republic]] and the occupation of [[Tatooine]] by the [[Galactic Empire]], JOE deployed a large number of Jawas back to the planet from offworld. These Jawa's were tasked with ensuring that Jawa trade to and from Tatooine would continue despite the circumstances. These initial smuggling operations quickly escalated with the Jawa group deciding to devote significant resources to effectively creating a shadow government on the planet, filling the void left by the largely ineffective imperial appointees. Through the assistance of the shadowy robed figures of the [[Jawa Liberation Front]] as well as the pressure placed on the [[Galactic Empire]] throughout the [[Arkanis]] sector by [[The Resistance]] the imperial forces eventually pulled out entirely, leaving the Jawas free to seize power in the vacuum and take control of the planet and its defense installations.<br />
<br />
==Structure==<br />
<br />
The structure of JOE is largely divided into two separate parts, typically referred to as JOE Businesses and JOE Command. JOE Businesses make up the bulk of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, and covers the many different individual Jawa enterprises which have been invested in and assisted by JOE. On the other hand, JOE command is the umbrella organization that ensures the prosperity of the JOE businesses as well as handling the coordination for Jawa efforts on larger operations. However, there is often a large degree of overlap between the two sections and individual Jawas often work in both JOE Command and specific JOE Businesses.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has repeatedly stated that it is their intention to trade freely with every sentient in the galaxy regardless of their political affiliation or location. However, due to a number of high profile diplomatic incidents as well as translation errors by faulty protocol droids the group of Jawas have found themselves navigating often turbulous diplomatic environments. There have been many incidents of this sort which never transpired into anything larger, most notable of which was a threat of war and trade sanctions from a member of the [[Galactic Alliance]] during the [[Battle of Nimban]] as well as an incident with a separate government over the question of droid theft. However, not all diplomatic incidents managed to be quickly resolved. The [[Galactic Empire]] famously declared war on JOE and placed trade sanctions against them only days after the founding of the group, likely a result of JOE being vehemently pro Jawa and alien rights as well as the history of [[Jic Uiji]] as an enemy of the empire. <br />
<br />
===Politics of Tatooine===<br />
<br />
While effectively in a position of governance, the Jawa corporation has little interest in the day to day legalities which are normally entailed in that position. Instead JOE focuses primarily on controlling the economic policies of the planet as a whole and on creating an environment that is ultimately better for Jawa business. Matters such as what constitutes a crime, construction of social projects, and enforcement of laws is typically handled by local governance which varies widely based on the planetary area.<br />
<br />
==Organizations==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has a large number of Jawa organizations that it is affiliated with. The exact relationship between each of them and Jawa Offworld Enterprises as a whole will vary.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
:''Main article: [[Jawa Industrial Magi]]''<br />
<br />
Born out of the shamans, wise men, and religions of Tatooine are the Jawa Industrial Magi. Despite parts of this religion dating back as far as Jawa records go, this incarcenation is much more recent. With a focus on taking ancient traditions into the future through technology and industry, the Jawa Industrial Magi were founded. Practitioners of this religion vary greatly in beliefs, with the many existing conflicting records of the teaching of various Gods and prophets leading to greatly differing beliefs. <br />
<br />
Due to worries over conversion of Jawas, typically done by members of [[Alissma]] or [[Zhellic Ecclesiarchy]] by restricting business with those who followed other religions, [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] pushed to ensure that a religious institute would exist on the galactic scale for the Jawa people. The Magi provide support Jawas to follow their religion wherever they may be as well as handling many of the more charitable operations JOE has.<br />
<br />
===Twin Suns Trading===<br />
<br />
Twin Suns Trading opened for business on year 21 day 76 after savvy businesjawa Zu Icaz traded a droid to the failing owners and set to turn the business around from scrap to splendor as is the Jawa way. Bringing trade to the outer rim and beyond, we look to serve the galaxy with unsurpassed Jawa quality goods. All sentients, especially Jawas, should have access to safe markets and affordable transportation through our Starports for conducting their business Offworld.<br />
<br />
One of the more traditional "businesses" under the JOE umbrella TST primarily seeks to develop trading infrastructure for sentients across the galaxy. <br />
<br />
===Sarlacc Integrated Design===<br />
<br />
A business run by [[Kolomon Seph]], the Sarlacc Pit seeks to customize what are often humancentric designed items and make them into something which is better functioning for the unique situations in the galaxy. This usually includes specialized equipment for the [[Jawa]] people, with the Sarlacc Pit being responsible for much of the research into Jawa armour, weapon, tool, and ship design. This would eventually reform into the much larger business known as [[Sarlacc Integrated Design]] which is presently led by [[Bif Beefi]] and is mainly based on the moon of [[Chenini]], one of the three moons of [[Tatooine]].<br />
<br />

<br />
===Jawa Enforcement & Forensics Force===<br />
<br />
A recently formed arm of JOE, JEFF serves to organize policing efforts in the [[Tatoo]] system and to track down criminals who pose a threat to the Jawa way of life.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Advanced Resource Exploitation Directorate (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
The mining arm of JOE, JARED played a key role in establishing successful Jawa industry on Tatooine. Ran by [[Wizz Eeeklee]] it mined luxurious minerals such as Duracrete and Ryll. Eventually JARED would unceremoniously dissolve after the dirt haulers in several colonies unionized and lead a large strike, eventually seizing JARED's headquarters and forcing the business into bankruptcy. Attempts to reclaim JARED's headquarters have been largely unsuccessful, with the dirt haulers union having held out against a siege since late Y21 with no signs of stopping. The union strikers are rumored to have used their mining equipment to construct an elaborate series of tunnels to smuggle food and items in and out of the headquarters.<br />
<br />
===Maker's Offworld Medical (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A joint business partnership with the [[Gordian Reach Authority]] led by [[Hazamuzee Seph]], [[Maker's Offworld Medical]] is a medical operation with a focus on taking the often human focused field of medicine and adapting it for Jawa needs. Group later went bankrupt after producing enough medicine to cure the entire Jawa population of certain transmitted diseases several times over, reducing demand dramatically.<br />
<br />
===Xenoarchaeological Institute (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A brief lived Jawa takeover, XI was primarily used to investigate ruins related to the [[Jawa]] people. Due to it being forbidden for non-Jawa to view the sacred remains of any Jawa it was important for the archaeological institute to be overseen by [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] during this time. It was eventually disbanded due to the Jawas running out of historical sites that were easy to find.<br />
<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations. As a part of advancing the jawa agenda he has been accused of many crimes, and is wanted for questioning or arrest in an estimated 76 sectors.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
===Sweet Pineapple===<br />
<br />
Jic is known to posses at least one of this rare fruit. It is unknown if he eats it or enjoys eating it, and is rumored to have acquired through an elaborate case of Jawa identity theft.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = Listen, it is neither piracy nor unethical to take something roughly equal in value including interest to what was took from you. This is the concept of debt repossession and is a basic trading concept you humans seem to miss.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji justifying his sins.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />

<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations. As a part of advancing the jawa agenda he has been accused of many crimes, and is wanted for questioning or arrest in an estimated 76 sectors.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
===Sweet Pineapple===<br />
<br />
Jic is known to posses at least one of this rare fruit. It is unknown if he eats it or enjoys eating it, and is rumored to have acquired through an elaborate case of Jawa identity theft.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = Listen, it is neither piracy nor unethical to take something roughly equal in value including interest to what was took from you. This is the concept of debt repossession and is a basic trading concept you humans seem to miss.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji justifying his sins.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />

}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people.

<br />

However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = Listen, it is neither piracy nor unethical to take something roughly equal in value including interest to what was took from you. This is the concept of debt repossession and is a basic trading concept you humans seem to miss.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji justifying his sins.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />
<br />
====The Trash Heap====<br />
On Y██ D███ an incident occurred at the trash heap involving [[Kolomon Seph]]. Nobody is clear on the details, but it is believed that following the ████████ incident there was a breakdown in relations that resulted in the ███████ █████ ██ ████ ██ ████ ████. It is believed that following the intervention of ███ ██████ the issue was resolved.<br />

}}<br />
'''Jawa Offworld Enterprises''' is a megacorporation which primarily profits through the investment in and creation of [[Jawa]] business ventures. Despite only recently having been created the business quickly rose to prominence in the galaxy, being at the center of a number of galactic events. This has been largely attributed by the group to the natural skill at conducting business possessed by the [[Jawa]] people. Ironically, the group of "offworld" Jawas has had considerable activity focused on their homeworld of [[Tatooine]], after assuming control of the planet in mid [[Year 21]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Origins===<br />
<br />
The origins of the Jawa Offworld Enterprises traces back to a number of different movements related to sentient rights of Jawa's and other short of stature species. Starting off with the likes of legendary Jawas [[Het Patchateeka]], [[Uli-ah Gafsa]], [[Heek Jikjawa]], and [[Tik Tak]] a number of pro-Jawa initiatives were attempted with the goal of assisting Jawas who left behind their homeland of [[Tatooine]]. However, due to a number of high profile legal cases, murders, and other disappearances all of these Jawas faded from the public eye almost entirely by around Y18. This led to the formation of two different groups which sought to advance the Jawa cause, the '''Jawa Society''' in Y18 as well as the '''League of Extraordinary Small Sentients''' in Y19, otherwise known as '''LESS'''. It was from these two groups and several unfortunate incidents that [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] managed to achieve the necessary capital as well as enough Jawa employees to launch their first business ventures.<br />
<br />
====Jawa Society====<br />
<br />
The Jawa Society was a grouping of Jawas of intergalactic prominence with the goal of providing community and assistance for Jawas. Formed by Jawas [[Jic Uiji]], [[Garik Loren]], [[Greyson Abrams]], [[Eugene Delmarco]], and [[Christine Apotheosis]] in early Y18 the group successfully launched a number of pro-Jawa initiatives like providing safe sandcrawler housing for Jawas around the galaxy. Sadly, after the death of [[Garik Loren]] after a politically motivated murder, the departure of [[Christine Apotheosis]], and increasing rumors of [[Greyson Abrams]] having plans of eugenics for the Jawa race the Jawa Society as a whole was in an increasingly weakened state and one which no longer had support across the galactic political spectrum. This led to a large amount of the pro-Jawa operations being purely done by [[Jic Uiji]], who was at the time the Governor of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] overseeing the [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] rule of the planet. As such most of the Jawa initiatives were in the form of supporting Jawa immigration to the mostly desert planet of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] and the success of Jawas on the planet. After [[Jic Uiji]] was crippled by unidentified assailants during a routine "trip" to the galactic core, his influence in the pirate collective quickly diminished and he was forced into early retirement by his crew from both his position as a captain and as governor. This led to an effective ceasing of many pro-Jawa initiatives in [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] territory.<br />
<br />
====League of Extraordinary Small Sentients====<br />
<br />
The League of Extraordinary Small Sentients was focused not just on the success of Jawas, but rather all sentient species that were deemed "small". However, in practice, this effectively meant [[Chadra-Fan]], [[Ewok]], and [[Jawa]] sentients were assisted. This was due in no small part to the main 4 members of LESS, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], [[Ini Kedi]], and [[Kolomon Seph]]. After briefly existing purely as a sentient rights group most of the members reformed into a recycling corporation known at the time as [[Raas-Moretti Industries]] in partnership with [[Moretti'ameli'arose]], who was otherwise known as [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. This group successfully operated for a number of months in no small part due to the incredible business skill of its Jawa members; however, things did not last. After [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], who was not a member of the group but allied with it under the [[Galactica Group]], along with [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], co-leader of the organization, plotted and succesfully carried out the murder of [[Moretti'ameli'arose]] due to claimed "Overreach by the tall people into business operations" the business effectively ceased to exist. This move did not instill confidence in the employees of the organization that they would survive much longer if they remained, and within a month every major employee, largely the Jawa duo [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] had left for some reason. <br />
<br />
====Formation====<br />
<br />
With [[Jic Uiji]] from the Jawa Society along with [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] from LESS all recently disenfranchised for some reason it was a seemingly perfect time for events to transpire. With most of them having worked together before, it was no surprise that they felt that they as a group had the experience to start a new business venture. After meeting in what is rumored to be a Jawa only diner in the northeast rim the group sat down and after hours of negotiations formed the creation contracts of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, an organization ran by Jawas and for Jawas so that their people could prosper. Of course, the contracts included a number of clauses so that they could prosper extensively themselves. Within hours of signing the contracts, the trio went public with their announcement of the formation on Year 19 Day 362.<br />
<br />
===Deep Space===<br />
<br />
Looking to establish some form of base out of which to operate and live, the Jawas spent several weeks debating where Jawas could best settle off of [[Tatooine]]. Eventually it was determined that no matter where they went they would be subject to the rule of those who are not Jawas, and that was unacceptable to them. As such, the group went out into the great cold unknowns and established an area in which they could operate. Outside of any legitimate governmental jurisdiction, the group settled among the asteroid fields of the northeastern rim. This deep space location was where almost all JOE trade passed through, largely for tax reasons. This took a significant toll on many of the Jawas, who yearned for the heat of suns on their skin again. As such, many Jawas were motivated to enlist into expeditions for a planet that they could call their own and settle on.<br />
<br />
===Industrial Salvage===<br />
<br />
The groups first major operation was that of the salvaging of an estimated 20% of of the infrastructure of the planet [[Dalisor]], infrastructure that was deemed to be outdated and unsafe to live in. With a salvaging team primarily led by [[Tilba Ugama]], a Jawa who was fresh off of Tatooine, the group managed to to clear out kilotons of building materials. Most of these materials went directly to smaller Jawa businesses operating under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises umbrella, which repurposed everything they could for resale. It was in this period of mass wrecking/salvaging that Jawa Offworld Enterprises briefly spent several months as controlling a majority of the salvaging market, even though after receiving payment the group decided to move into more lucrative industries. This also saw the rise of [[Tilba Ugama]] to prominence in the organization.<br />
<br />
===The New Tent Order to Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
<br />
After hearing of rumored instability in the [[New Tent Order]], a religious organization which gained surprising prominence, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises decided to capitalize on the situation for the benefit of the Jawa race. Large numbers of Jawas were sent to register as devout believers of the New Tent Order moments before the heretic [[Fleuf Naze]] embarked on a suicidal quest to the center of a black hole. With the next leader being unclear, the Jawas were able to swing the public opinion and voting in favor of [[Jic Uiji]]. As the newly chosen tent leader, Jic Uiji took control of all tent order temples, churches, religious artifacts, and other assets before declaring that the group was reforming to an entirely different belief system. This belief system being the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]], a religion that had existed on [[Tatooine]] among the Jawas but had been struggling for intergalactic prominence. While being a secular organization, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises defended this move stating that it was neccesary for their independence and profits that the business and its people were not subject to any human religious authority.<br />
<br />
===Battle of Nimban===<br />
[[File:Jawameridianbattle.png|right]]<br />
:''Main article: [[Battle of Nimban]]''<br />
The '''Battle of Nimban''' also know as '''"Bopom Kova Upezzo M’tuske"''' among the Jawas was a major operation that saw the group shift increasingly militant as well as resulting in a number of alliances. After the Jawa Offworld Enterprises entered into an agreement with the '''ZooKeeper Alliance''' to provide assistance for their scientific research endeavors groups of Jawa fighter wings and research teams were seen increasingly flying alongside ZooKeeper vessels. This was most prominent in the Nimban system, an outer rim system where the ZooKeeper Alliance was conducting much of their research. However, the rival scientific organization the '''DNA Bashers''' had also been increasingly moving their own military presence into the system in direct opposition to the ZooKeeper Alliance. After several weeks of growing tensions, things escalated into an all out battle between these two major scientific organizations as well as their allied forces.<br />
<br />
Rather than directly focusing on directly attacking enemy forces the Jawa crews quickly organized into a number of different salvaging crews. These salvaging crews focused on the recovery and extraction of key tactical assets from the battlefield, such as preserving the lives of the ZooKeeper Alliance research crews and their research equipment. After several days of operating, with many Jawas going sleepless nights thanks to modern stimulant technology, things escalated further with the DNA Bashers revealing a super weapon that they had been developing in the system. This super weapon was a duo Battle-class Meridian Frigate, a beast of a ship which packed the punch of a battle moon while moving about as fast. As a part of a joint attack with assistance indirectly from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] as well as the newly found friends in [[Chir`dorna Manufacturing]], an elite Jawa salvaging team led by [[Jic Uiji]] managed to evade the volleys of blaster fire and board one of the craft. After fighting their way to the bridge the Jawas managed to take control of the craft and to pull it out of the battle. However, it had sustained serious damage to nearly every system and it has not yet even closely returned to its full operational capacity. Not having the original schematics the Jawa repair teams were only able to return the ship to its original state as operating as a Meridian-class Frigate. Becoming the unofficial flagship of the JOE fleet, this ship has become known as the "Mary Dean" in honor of the nickname given to it by [[St'eve]], a Jawa fighter pilot who died at the Battle of Nimban.<br />
<br />
===Sasan===<br />
[[File:Jawacouncil.png|left]]<br />
<br />
After war was declared on Jawa Offworld Enterprises by the [[Galactic Empire]], and worst of all trade sanctions, the Jawa collective was drawn into conflict with the Empire. Initially this resulted in a number of minor skirmishes with no major impact to either side; however, as hostilities grew the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were increasingly looking for ways to profit from this war until peace could be made. As such, when rebellion broke out in the Corellian sector the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were some of the first on the scene. Making use of the shadow trade routes created in order to dodge imperial trade sanctions as well as their expertise in unusual operations the Jawas managed to expertly operate around hostile forces and and ensure that planetary defenses were created on rebelling planets in order to repel the coming imperial fleets and legions. Many of these operations were focused on the securing of the planet [[Sasan]] in the [[New Plympto (System)|New Plympto]] system, with the planet's scorching temperatures allowing Jawas to work far longer hours and more effectively than the Corellians trying the same. Working in cooperation with a number of pro-Corellian independence groups Jawa Offworld Enterprises was able to secure [[Sasan]] as well as several other nearby rebelling planets from invasion.<br />
<br />
With there being relatively minimal local population on Sasan, with most of the planetary population evacuating to the safer and more hospitable planet of [[New Plympto (Planet)|New Plympto]], the Jawa Offworld Enterprises took control of the planetary governance with permission of the alliance for Corellian independence. The Corellian people were notably sympathetic to the plight of Jawas around the galaxy and it was deemed best for the security of the planet and system if it was inhabited by a race which could better withstand the hot climate. Within days of this announcement, laws lowering the the sales and income taxes were put into effect. <br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
[[File:Joetrenchant.png|right]]<br />
{{Quote<br />
|quote = For decades, we have struggled, at times openly and at times covertly, against external interference on Tatooine. For eons the planet was open to all, allowing free trade and cultural exchange until galactic governments took advantage of our openness and restricted our way of life, culminating in the exodus of Jawa to look for better prospects. Now, we are the ones that took advantage. The clans once again control our ancestral planet, and we will work tirelessly to bring it back to its former glory free of oppression. <br />
|person = [[Ini Kedi]] speaking after the liberation of Tatooine.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Following the fall of the [[New Republic]] and the occupation of [[Tatooine]] by the [[Galactic Empire]], JOE deployed a large number of Jawas back to the planet from offworld. These Jawa's were tasked with ensuring that Jawa trade to and from Tatooine would continue despite the circumstances. These initial smuggling operations quickly escalated with the Jawa group deciding to devote significant resources to effectively creating a shadow government on the planet, filling the void left by the largely ineffective imperial appointees. Through the assistance of the shadowy robed figures of the [[Jawa Liberation Front]] as well as the pressure placed on the [[Galactic Empire]] throughout the [[Arkanis]] sector by [[The Resistance]] the imperial forces eventually pulled out entirely, leaving the Jawas free to seize power in the vacuum and take control of the planet and its defense installations.<br />
<br />
==Structure==<br />
<br />
The structure of JOE is largely divided into two separate parts, typically referred to as JOE Businesses and JOE Command. JOE Businesses make up the bulk of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, and covers the many different individual Jawa enterprises which have been invested in and assisted by JOE. On the other hand, JOE command is the umbrella organization that ensures the prosperity of the JOE businesses as well as handling the coordination for Jawa efforts on larger operations. However, there is often a large degree of overlap between the two sections and individual Jawas often work in both JOE Command and specific JOE Businesses.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has repeatedly stated that it is their intention to trade freely with every sentient in the galaxy regardless of their political affiliation or location. However, due to a number of high profile diplomatic incidents as well as translation errors by faulty protocol droids the group of Jawas have found themselves navigating often turbulous diplomatic environments. There have been many incidents of this sort which never transpired into anything larger, most notable of which was a threat of war and trade sanctions from a member of the [[Galactic Alliance]] during the [[Battle of Nimban]] as well as an incident with a separate government over the question of droid theft. However, not all diplomatic incidents managed to be quickly resolved. The [[Galactic Empire]] famously declared war on JOE and placed trade sanctions against them only days after the founding of the group, likely a result of JOE being vehemently pro Jawa and alien rights as well as the history of [[Jic Uiji]] as an enemy of the empire. <br />
<br />
===Politics of Tatooine===<br />
<br />
While effectively in a position of governance, the Jawa corporation has little interest in the day to day legalities which are normally entailed in that position. Instead JOE focuses primarily on controlling the economic policies of the planet as a whole and on creating an environment that is ultimately better for Jawa business. Matters such as what constitutes a crime, construction of social projects, and enforcement of laws is typically handled by local governance which varies widely based on the planetary area.<br />
<br />
==Organizations==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has a large number of Jawa organizations that it is affiliated with. The exact relationship between each of them and Jawa Offworld Enterprises as a whole will vary.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
:''Main article: [[Jawa Industrial Magi]]''<br />
<br />
Born out of the shamans, wise men, and religions of Tatooine are the Jawa Industrial Magi. Despite parts of this religion dating back as far as Jawa records go, this incarcenation is much more recent. With a focus on taking ancient traditions into the future through technology and industry, the Jawa Industrial Magi were founded. Practitioners of this religion vary greatly in beliefs, with the many existing conflicting records of the teaching of various Gods and prophets leading to greatly differing beliefs. <br />
<br />
Due to worries over conversion of Jawas, typically done by members of [[Alissma]] or [[Zhellic Ecclesiarchy]] by restricting business with those who followed other religions, [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] pushed to ensure that a religious institute would exist on the galactic scale for the Jawa people. The Magi provide support Jawas to follow their religion wherever they may be as well as handling many of the more charitable operations JOE has.<br />
<br />
===Twin Suns Trading===<br />
<br />
Twin Suns Trading opened for business on year 21 day 76 after savvy businesjawa Zu Icaz traded a droid to the failing owners and set to turn the business around from scrap to splendor as is the Jawa way. Bringing trade to the outer rim and beyond, we look to serve the galaxy with unsurpassed Jawa quality goods. All sentients, especially Jawas, should have access to safe markets and affordable transportation through our Starports for conducting their business Offworld.<br />
<br />
One of the more traditional "businesses" under the JOE umbrella TST primarily seeks to develop trading infrastructure for sentients across the galaxy. <br />
<br />
===Sarlacc Integrated Design===<br />
<br />
A business ran by [[Kolomon Seph]], the Sarlacc Pit seeks to customize what is often humancentric designed items and make them into something which is better functioning for the unique situations in the galaxy. This often includes specialized equipment for the [[Jawa]] people, with the Sarlacc Pit being responsible for much of the research into Jawa armor, weapon, tool, and ship design. This would eventually reform into the much larger business known as [[Sarlacc Integrated Design]] which is presently led by [[Bif Beefi]] and is mostly based on the moon of [[Chenini]], one of the three moons of [[Tatooine]].<br />
<br />
===Jawa Enforcement & Forensics Force===<br />
<br />
A recently formed arm of JOE, JEFF serves to organize policing efforts in the [[Tatoo]] system and to track down criminals who pose a threat to the Jawa way of life.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Advanced Resource Exploitation Directorate (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
The mining arm of JOE, JARED played a key role in establishing successful Jawa industry on Tatooine. Ran by [[Wizz Eeeklee]] it mined luxurious minerals such as Duracrete and Ryll. Eventually JARED would unceremoniously dissolve after the dirt haulers in several colonies unionized and lead a large strike, eventually seizing JARED's headquarters and forcing the business into bankruptcy. Attempts to reclaim JARED's headquarters have been largely unsuccessful, with the dirt haulers union having held out against a siege since late Y21 with no signs of stopping. The union strikers are rumored to have used their mining equipment to construct an elaborate series of tunnels to smuggle food and items in and out of the headquarters.<br />
<br />
===Maker's Offworld Medical===<br />
<br />
A joint business partnership with the [[Gordian Reach Authority]], [[Maker's Offworld Medical]] is a medical operation with a focus on taking the often human focused field of medicine and adapting it for Jawa needs. <br />
<br />
===Xenoarchaeological Institute (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A brief lived Jawa takeover, XI was primarily used to investigate ruins related to the [[Jawa]] people. Due to it being forbidden for non-Jawa to view the sacred remains of any Jawa it was important for the archaeological institute to be overseen by [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] during this time. It was eventually disbanded due to the Jawas running out of historical sites that were easy to find.<br />

<br />
Ethan Travis, is a Zabrak. Records show that Ethan was born on planet Iridonia in 357 [[BCGT]] where he grew up as a child of a poor merchant family. At the age of two his parents went missing and were declared dead by the local authorities. Two weeks later Ethan was placed in the local orphanage for adoption and it didn’t take long before Ethan was adopted by a wealthy Corellian family who came from the planet Talus in Corellian system. His step-father, Carol Travis was a wealthy landlord who owned couple of spice plantations on Talus vast continent. His step-mother was a full time house wife, though barren and childless, she was always there for Ethan. When Ethan, reached the age of 6, he was sent to the local school. Although he never exceeded in one or other field, he graduated it nevertheless at the age of 16. Even though Ethan didn't want to continue studies in academy, he complied in the end with his father wish and began studies at Nashal Technical Academy as an high energy system engineer. At the age of 22 he graduated it, and life was set for him, with his father's wealth and degree backing him up in the social ladders. But the life of knowledge pursuit of university didn’t seem that appealing to the hot headed Iridonian, and soon Ethan found himself in a different company. It was the turning point in Ethan's life that set him on many adventures centuries later. He lived a long and a happy life and on Year 18 day 23 CGT, Ethan passed away as the Sith Artifact that kept him alive pass his natural lifespan failed.<br />
<br />
==Biography==<br />
===Mercenary life===<br />
In 338 BCGT Ethan joined a mercenary outfit called Crimson Legion, that was on a recruiting run on Talus to replace their numbers and seek new contracts. Legion used an old hauler called ‘’Bloody Maid’’ that was modified with additional life support sections and barracks to serve as a transport ship and their mobile command center. This freighter became home for Ethan for the next 6 years, during which Ethan served on different planets as a mercenary.<br />
<br />
[[File:YoungEthanTravisPhotoShop2.png]]<br />
<br />
''Ethan at the frontlines with the Crimson Legion''<br />
<br />
In 326 BCGT Crimson Legion was employed to serve as an skirmish unit during the [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Melida/Daan_Civil_War Melida/Daan Civil War] for the Coalition faction, where brutality and casualty rates among both warring sides were sky-high. For almost 3 years there was a planet wide stalemate, where fronts moved only couple of clicks before being pushed back by opposing faction counterattacks. But at the end of 323 BCGT, one side broke through the lines in one of the mayor fronts. Crimson Legion was sent to the front to secure key areas that were under the threat of being completely overrun by the opposing forces. That day casualties in the outfit were high, as only 50 people survived out of the original 240 members of the Legion. Most of those that did survive were under critical condition and because medical facilities were being overrun with war casualties, most of the wounded found themselves cryogenically frozen and sent to neutral zones in large retrofitted ships to recuperate and heal.<br />
<br />
===The long sleep===<br />
Ethan found himself to be one of the war casualties, as a passing rail-gun slug had cut one of his arms while turning to shreds the other from the sheer force impact. He was immediately rushed to the field hospital where he was frozen and to be transferred to a refitted luxury liner ‘’Orion Lane’’ for evac to neutral zones. Both the warring factions had agreed that these ships would not be harmed, as both used the nearby neutral systems to ship their wounded for recovery. Fate had it that the ship on which Ethan was on-board never reached the destination, as it experienced an critical failure in one of its core systems that blew a large chunk in the outer hull of the ship. It took only seconds before the luxury liner underwent an immediate depressurization, killing all crew except the wounded in cryogenic tubes. No one got a chance to send the distress signal and for 210 years the ship floated in space between stars, never encountering any passing ship, until on day the internal com system started to send a distress signal. It didn’t take long till a rescue ship arrived and picked up the frozen survivors.<br />
<br />
===Awakening===<br />

<br />
''Ethan's body after the long cryosleep.''<br />
<br />
They were sent to a nearby starbase called Azar that acted mostly as a medical research facility. It took several fatalities through trial and error until a team of scientists successfully put out of the cryosleep the first survivor – Ethan Travis. They replaced the stumps with new cybernetic arms and placed him under a heavy supervision and quarantine, for overseeing of any possible physiological defects or deadly pathogens, before the hospital proceeded to revive more survivors. 4 months later, the medical facility went dark, with no contact made over the next week, local planetary government sent a team to investigate. Neither the 300 person staff nor cryofrozen survivors could be found. Further investigation revealed that all the data from the security systems was erased. Except a single bloodied datapad that was smashed almost to bits but retained in its memory core the [http://s11.postimg.org/5joj5z85f/Report_Ethan.jpg last entry]<br />
<br />
===Disease===<br />
As Ethan soon discovered the long cryogenic sleep had serious side defects, as he experienced an complete cellular breakdown in most of his organs. Ether long cryostasis or a genetic mutation, had caused Ethan's cells to stop duplicating that caused eventual rapid degeneration of the tissue. To solve this Ethan started experimenting with retrovirus therapy in hopes of rewriting his genetic makeup and fixing the damage.<br />
<br />
In first weeks the therapy was a resounding success, his organism started to self-repair the tissue damage and Ethan even experienced a renewed vitality, but soon he fell sick again. The retrovirus that he had injected himself had mutated to such extent that it caused his skin to adopt a pale gray pallor and begin to perspire profusely, necrosis set in within days and a gelatinous gray fluid would developed beneath it, as the circulatory system carried the virus throughout the body - cell by cell Ethan was dying. Vomiting blood, seizures, respiratory arrest, and cardiac arrest were almost daily and without spending much of his time in the bacta-tank, Ethan would have died within the first month, which was something that he wished for, as the virus did not destroy pain receptors, on the contrary, it amplified the inflicted pain that he experienced from having his skin falling off or developing rashes beneath it.<br />
<br />
===Recovery===<br />
Being between life and death, in the cold bacta tank that sustained him, Ethan started studying the ancient scrolls of long dead Sith Lords, as they were the ones who have been known to experiment with prolonging their longevity or even try to archive immortality. Being immobile and having only power to access some of the archives that were available to him, Ethan hired an Anzati by the name of [[Victor Von Drakenstein]] to help him track down any lead of an Sith Relic that was called the Life Shard of Bogan and once belonged to an Sith Lord by the name of Vilken Berranstein. Vilken was obsessed with prolonging his life and getting back his youth, as such he created an Force Artifact that pulsated with Darkside and could influence organic cells on genetic level. It took many years before Victor finally found the tomb of Dark Lord Vilken, where right besides the deceased body of the Sith, laid the red shard that still glowed. Once Victor had returned to the weak and frail Zabrak body that was Ethan, the surgical operation of implantation with the shard commenced. It took only few weeks for Ethans body to stabilize and recover, he no longer looked like an old Zabrak but rather one in his 40s or 50s.<br />

<br />
==Comatose==<br />
During one long journey in his YT-2000, Ethan got weak and wary. The effect of the Sith Artifact that had kept him alive and young was failing. During his last breaths, he managed to send out a distress signal and with that he succumbed in his cockpit seat. Mindless but still alive, he had collapsed and was in a comatose state.<br />
<br />
==Servitude==<br />
[[Ember Aranyos]] acquired the coordinates of Ethan's pod from the mutual friend of [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. She forced Ember to pay handsomely for this knowledge. Ember set out to aid his dieing friend, once he arrived he drew apon his connection to the force to try and recover Ethan health. with many days of trying Ethan finally awoke however he became mute and seemed to only follow basic commands. wanting to protect his Friend Ember took Ethan home to serve the House of Aranyos in any capacity Ethan was able. Ember thought this was better than leaving Ethan to die a slow and painful death.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Archaeology==<br />
After receiving proper medical care and becoming less of a husk of his former self, Ethan found his way into the employment of Jawakind through [[Jic Uiji]]. Ethan has seen being involved in numerous xeno-archeological expeditions related to Jawas, from involvement in some early research into ancient shamanic artifacts by the Jawa Industrial Magi to overseeing digs at sites throughout Tatooine.<br />
<br />
==Interests==<br />
Ethan likes to spend time hunting exotic and dangerous beasts, especially with friends like [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. In the past Ethan had funded and personally participated in many xeno-archeological expeditions to find long lost relics of dead civilizations that were scattered through out the galaxy. While some of them were of personal interest, Ethan soon discovered the lucrative trade of selling artifacts and curiosities to sentient beings and governments alike. Not only he had archived great wealth and influence in short span of time by doing so, Ethan also was able to fund and invest in the growing enterprise of [[Caldria]], which even further expended his reach, wealth and renown.<br />

<br />
'''Veritas Press''' (sometimes abbreviated to '''VP''' or simply '''Veritas''') is a pan-galactic, privately owned, GSPI-listed media syndicate, it is presently composed of six incorporated divisions, and at least two associated free media enterprises. Combined these many aspects of Veritas promote a number of crucial intellectual concepts, including: freedom of speech and expression; free access to information; and the presence of multiple layers to any truth. The truth, or perhaps more accurately, the quest for it, plays a crucial role in defining the Veritas Way; the corporate ethos.<br />
<br />
In the quest for knowledge, the major and minor stories that they cover are broadcast from their home system, Lorell. Here also lies the headquarters the Veritas Axon; former palace of House Antaria now redefined to serve as nerve centre for galaxy-wide information networks. Those seeking the finest in information, technology and news coverage have come to the right place. With incorporated media, engineering, sales and security divisions – as well as sister company the Galactic Stock Exchange – all under the Veritas banner, they offer a wide range of solutions to cater to an almost infinite number of customer needs.<br />
<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
Brainchild of Artemis de Chatillon and his friend Budai Gautama Tiure, the diminutive but vocal Veritas Press News Service emerged as a rebellious ‘voice of truth’ and champion of grassroots activism, among silent masses in the tense aftermath of a galaxy long embroiled in an extended war of attrition. The motto “YOU CAN’T STOP THE SIGNAL!” was popularised and made corporate slogan, after attempts by regional authorities in Ord Cantrell to shut down a Veritas-rigged satellite grid broadcasting a pirate signal were successfully thwarted by a coordinated hacking initiative of computer enthusiasts. This event in no small way helped usher Veritas into galactic consciousness, and by early Year 12 (Y12D53) the company had successfully established itself on the GNS as a news provider of lasting impact.<br />
<br />
However, as Year 12 was nearing its end, both Artemis and Gautama left Veritas Press, favouring a quiet, retired life in the Outer Rim. With the two founding members gone, Asarya Katr led the corporation for a small amount of time, whilst searching for somebody to guide Veritas into the future. Then she discovered Mustafa al-Qadrim. He acquired the company and stepped in as Creative Director. In early Year 13 the corporate structure was revitalised and strengthened many projects and ideas began to take shape and stability was gained through the sheer determination and effort of each member of the syndicate.<br />
<br />
The recruitment of Kiie Cristal, highly celebrated Imperial Governor, as Vice President was the next turning point in the history of the corporation, and coupled with the return of Vitruvius Bakara as Editor-in-Chief of Veritas News Inc., the Directorate and leadership was looking stronger than ever. With increased publicity and many potential buyers, the media syndicate began to make plans of its becoming a Conglomerate Company. At the turn of the year, Kiie Cristal is granted the position of Chief Executive Officer of Veritas Press. <br />
<br />
In the final period of Year 13, Veritas reached a Golden Age of prosperity, with Finar Ambrose and Andy Longshot both being elevated to the Terrefel Reiki as Vice President and Security Chief respectively. The Veritas Engineering Corps was revamped under Alexander Darkstar and the Galactic Stock Exchange (formerly a Free Media Enterprise, now an incorporated Division) and the Stock Price Index (SPI) was undergoing revival at the hands of Ardu Nillian. <br />
<br />
The early phases of Year 14 saw turbulent changes in leadership, as Andy Longshot swore allegiance to the Dark Star Hellions, and Allendi Solvan tendered his resignation and retirement. Ardu Nillian was made CEO of GSE and welcomed to the Directorate. Vicious murder of Mr. Darkstar by Fleur de'Rouge was slightly offset by the capture and subsequent life imprisonment of her ally in crime, Jay Ord. As Mr. Ambrose moved to direct Engineering operations, close kin Val Ambrose made a surprise appearance and stepped up to aid his brother in VEC. Jorus Serto was appointed Editor-in-Chief in recognition of his skill and dedication to VNI - Veritas GNS broadcasts broke new viewer records. The Derra virus changed Finar Ambrose on the genetic level, turning him into a Hutt - wanderlust struck, and he stepped down from Vice Presidency nonetheless remaining active in the community. Revolutionary advancements in cybernetics and information technology encouraged lateral thinking as Veritas Technologies 3000 series datapads were unveiled to the public. In accordance with its free research initiative programme Veritas launched specialised solutions for governments, corporations and organisations - particularly to the benefit of non-profit organisations. Mr. Nillian, for tireless inspiration is by unanimous vote was made a Senior Partner of Veritas Press.<br />
<br />
Later on in that year, Orion Jenru, decorated Imperial officer and venerable friend of Mustafa al-Qadrim, was welcomed to Veritas. He assumed command of VSEC, transforming it with capable lieutenants and infrastructure developments into the taskforce VARDA. Meanwhile, [[Wolfgang von Schlavendorf]], recently promoted to Division Adjunct of GSE, took responsibility of GSPI introducing his 'dailies' on stock market developments. Jorus Serto unveiled plans for the Veritas News Nexus, which under Directorate oversight evolved into a layered Holonet/Holoboard concept. The outlined corporate colony of Rehemsa became a partnership between GSE, VARDA, and VEC, and Val Ambrose spearheaded efforts to implement the first phase of construction.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Leadership Structure ==<br />
''The Syndicate Three'' is the mind, body, and soul of Veritas Press. It is a triumvirate of councils, and three distinct layers, or rings, of authority within Veritas' leadership.<br />
<br />
The Soul : Terrefel Reiki<br />
The Mind : The Veritas Board<br />
The Body : The Directorate<br />
<br />
'''Terrefel Reiki''', also known as the Terrefel Group or simply 'the Group,' is the ultimate authority within the Syndicate. The smallest constituent part of the triumvirate, it carries the greatest burden of responsibility over all facets of Veritas. While Group members are defined as full equals in say, some internal distinction exists, for the Group is divided into a core of voting individuals with the power to ratify any agenda and two greatly respected categories of non-voting advisors.<br />
<br />
'''The Board''', or the Veritas 'one percenters', as they are sometimes called in galactic media, are the Syndicate’s policy-making organ; introducing projects and presenting them to Terrefel Reiki for scrutiny, ultimately leading to the Directorate for review and action. This gathering is comprised of corporate directors, enterprise leaders, senior partners, and other illuminaries affiliated with Veritas.<br />
<br />
While the Veritas Board is the syndicate's policy-making group, '''the Directorate''' is composed of its executive leadership and managers of the corporate divisions of Veritas. The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) is the head of the Directorate; seconded by the Vice President (VP), also master of personnel, who regularly liaisons between the Syndicate and corporate divisions/free media enterprises.<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations. As a part of advancing the jawa agenda he has been accused of many crimes, and is wanted for questioning or arrest in an estimated 76 sectors.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
===Sweet Pineapple===<br />
<br />
Jic is known to posses at least one of this rare fruit. It is unknown if he eats it or enjoys eating it, and is rumored to have acquired through an elaborate case of Jawa identity theft.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />

}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />

}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />

}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations. As a part of advancing the jawa agenda he has been accused of many crimes, and is wanted for questioning or arrest in an estimated 76 sectors.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
===Sweet Pineapple===<br />
<br />
Jic is known to posses at least one of this rare fruit. It is unknown if he eats it or enjoys eating it, and is rumored to have acquired through an elaborate case of Jawa identity theft.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />

Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations. As a part of advancing the jawa agenda he has been accused of many crimes, and is wanted for questioning or arrest in an estimated 76 sectors.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
===Sweet Pineapple===<br />
<br />
Jic is known to posses at least one of this rare fruit. It is unknown if he eats it or enjoys eating it, and is rumored to have acquired through an elaborate case of Jawa identity theft.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />

}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />

}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />

After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations. As a part of advancing the jawa agenda he has been accused of many crimes, and is wanted for questioning or arrest in an estimated 76 sectors.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
===Sweet Pineapple===<br />
<br />
Jic is known to posses at least one of this rare fruit. It is unknown if he eats it or enjoys eating it, and is rumored to have acquired through an elaborate case of Jawa identity theft.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />

<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]].

Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
===Sweet Pineapple===<br />
<br />
Jic is known to posses at least one of this rare fruit. It is unknown if he eats it or enjoys eating it, and is rumored to have acquired through an elaborate case of Jawa identity theft.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />

| person = Jic Uiji justifying his sins.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations. As a part of advancing the jawa agenda he has been accused of many crimes, and is wanted for questioning or arrest in an estimated 75 sectors.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />

Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />

<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />

===The Jawa Agenda===<br />

}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />

After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

}}<br />
<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations. As a part of advancing the jawa agenda he has been accused of many crimes, and is wanted for questioning or arrest in an estimated 75 sectors.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
===Sweet Pineapple===<br />
<br />
Jic is known to posses at least one of this rare fruit. It is unknown if he eats it or enjoys eating it, and is rumored to have acquired through an elaborate case of Jawa identity theft.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />

<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />

<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward.

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations. As a part of advancing the jawa agenda he has been accused of many crimes, and is wanted for questioning or arrest in an estimated 74 sectors.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
===Sweet Pineapple===<br />
<br />
Jic is known to posses at least one of this rare fruit. It is unknown if he eats it or enjoys eating it, and is rumored to have acquired through an elaborate case of Jawa identity theft.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />

}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations. As a part of advancing the jawa agenda he has been accused of many crimes, and is wanted for questioning or arrest in an estimated 74 sectors.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = Listen, it is neither piracy nor unethical to take something roughly equal in value including interest to what was took from you. This is the concept of debt repossession and is a basic trading concept you humans seem to miss.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji justifying his sins.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

'''Jawa Offworld Enterprises''' is a megacorporation which primarily profits through the investment in and creation of [[Jawa]] business ventures. Despite only recently having been created the business quickly rose to prominence in the galaxy, being at the center of a number of galactic events. This has been largely attributed by the group to the natural skill at conducting business possessed by the [[Jawa]] people. Ironically, the group of "offworld" Jawas has had considerable activity focused on their homeworld of [[Tatooine]], after assuming control of the planet in mid [[Year 21]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Origins===<br />
<br />
The origins of the Jawa Offworld Enterprises traces back to a number of different movements related to sentient rights of Jawa's and other short of stature species. Starting off with the likes of legendary Jawas [[Het Patchateeka]], [[Uli-ah Gafsa]], [[Heek Jikjawa]], and [[Tik Tak]] a number of pro-Jawa initiatives were attempted with the goal of assisting Jawas who left behind their homeland of [[Tatooine]]. However, due to a number of high profile legal cases, murders, and other disappearances all of these Jawas faded from the public eye almost entirely by around Y18. This led to the formation of two different groups which sought to advance the Jawa cause, the '''Jawa Society''' in Y18 as well as the '''League of Extraordinary Small Sentients''' in Y19, otherwise known as '''LESS'''. It was from these two groups and several unfortunate incidents that [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] managed to achieve the necessary capital as well as enough Jawa employees to launch their first business ventures.<br />
<br />
====Jawa Society====<br />
<br />
The Jawa Society was a grouping of Jawas of intergalactic prominence with the goal of providing community and assistance for Jawas. Formed by Jawas [[Jic Uiji]], [[Garik Loren]], [[Greyson Abrams]], [[Eugene Delmarco]], and [[Christine Apotheosis]] in early Y18 the group successfully launched a number of pro-Jawa initiatives like providing safe sandcrawler housing for Jawas around the galaxy. Sadly, after the death of [[Garik Loren]] after a politically motivated murder, the departure of [[Christine Apotheosis]], and increasing rumors of [[Greyson Abrams]] having plans of eugenics for the Jawa race the Jawa Society as a whole was in an increasingly weakened state and one which no longer had support across the galactic political spectrum. This led to a large amount of the pro-Jawa operations being purely done by [[Jic Uiji]], who was at the time the Governor of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] overseeing the [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] rule of the planet. As such most of the Jawa initiatives were in the form of supporting Jawa immigration to the mostly desert planet of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] and the success of Jawas on the planet. After [[Jic Uiji]] was crippled by unidentified assailants during a routine "trip" to the galactic core, his influence in the pirate collective quickly diminished and he was forced into early retirement by his crew from both his position as a captain and as governor. This led to an effective ceasing of many pro-Jawa initiatives in [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] territory.<br />
<br />
====League of Extraordinary Small Sentients====<br />
<br />
The League of Extraordinary Small Sentients was focused not just on the success of Jawas, but rather all sentient species that were deemed "small". However, in practice, this effectively meant [[Chadra-Fan]], [[Ewok]], and [[Jawa]] sentients were assisted. This was due in no small part to the main 4 members of LESS, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], [[Ini Kedi]], and [[Kolomon Seph]]. After briefly existing purely as a sentient rights group most of the members reformed into a recycling corporation known at the time as [[Raas-Moretti Industries]] in partnership with [[Moretti'ameli'arose]], who was otherwise known as [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. This group successfully operated for a number of months in no small part due to the incredible business skill of its Jawa members; however, things did not last. After [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], who was not a member of the group but allied with it under the [[Galactica Group]], along with [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], co-leader of the organization, plotted and succesfully carried out the murder of [[Moretti'ameli'arose]] due to claimed "Overreach by the tall people into business operations" the business effectively ceased to exist. This move did not instill confidence in the employees of the organization that they would survive much longer if they remained, and within a month every major employee, largely the Jawa duo [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] had left for some reason. <br />
<br />
====Formation====<br />
<br />
With [[Jic Uiji]] from the Jawa Society along with [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] from LESS all recently disenfranchised for some reason it was a seemingly perfect time for events to transpire. With most of them having worked together before, it was no surprise that they felt that they as a group had the experience to start a new business venture. After meeting in what is rumored to be a Jawa only diner in the northeast rim the group sat down and after hours of negotiations formed the creation contracts of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, an organization ran by Jawas and for Jawas so that their people could prosper. Of course, the contracts included a number of clauses so that they could prosper extensively themselves. Within hours of signing the contracts, the trio went public with their announcement of the formation on Year 19 Day 362.<br />
<br />
===Deep Space===<br />
<br />
Looking to establish some form of base out of which to operate and live, the Jawas spent several weeks debating where Jawas could best settle off of [[Tatooine]]. Eventually it was determined that no matter where they went they would be subject to the rule of those who are not Jawas, and that was unacceptable to them. As such, the group went out into the great cold unknowns and established an area in which they could operate. Outside of any legitimate governmental jurisdiction, the group settled among the asteroid fields of the northeastern rim. This deep space location was where almost all JOE trade passed through, largely for tax reasons. This took a significant toll on many of the Jawas, who yearned for the heat of suns on their skin again. As such, many Jawas were motivated to enlist into expeditions for a planet that they could call their own and settle on.<br />
<br />
===Industrial Salvage===<br />
<br />
The groups first major operation was that of the salvaging of an estimated 20% of of the infrastructure of the planet [[Dalisor]], infrastructure that was deemed to be outdated and unsafe to live in. With a salvaging team primarily led by [[Tilba Ugama]], a Jawa who was fresh off of Tatooine, the group managed to to clear out kilotons of building materials. Most of these materials went directly to smaller Jawa businesses operating under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises umbrella, which repurposed everything they could for resale. It was in this period of mass wrecking/salvaging that Jawa Offworld Enterprises briefly spent several months as controlling a majority of the salvaging market, even though after receiving payment the group decided to move into more lucrative industries. This also saw the rise of [[Tilba Ugama]] to prominence in the organization.<br />
<br />
===The New Tent Order to Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
<br />
After hearing of rumored instability in the [[New Tent Order]], a religious organization which gained surprising prominence, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises decided to capitalize on the situation for the benefit of the Jawa race. Large numbers of Jawas were sent to register as devout believers of the New Tent Order moments before the heretic [[Fleuf Naze]] embarked on a suicidal quest to the center of a black hole. With the next leader being unclear, the Jawas were able to swing the public opinion and voting in favor of [[Jic Uiji]]. As the newly chosen tent leader, Jic Uiji took control of all tent order temples, churches, religious artifacts, and other assets before declaring that the group was reforming to an entirely different belief system. This belief system being the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]], a religion that had existed on [[Tatooine]] among the Jawas but had been struggling for intergalactic prominence. While being a secular organization, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises defended this move stating that it was neccesary for their independence and profits that the business and its people were not subject to any human religious authority.<br />
<br />
===Battle of Nimban===<br />
[[File:Jawameridianbattle.png|right]]<br />
:''Main article: [[Battle of Nimban]]''<br />
The '''Battle of Nimban''' also know as '''"Bopom Kova Upezzo M’tuske"''' among the Jawas was a major operation that saw the group shift increasingly militant as well as resulting in a number of alliances. After the Jawa Offworld Enterprises entered into an agreement with the '''ZooKeeper Alliance''' to provide assistance for their scientific research endeavors groups of Jawa fighter wings and research teams were seen increasingly flying alongside ZooKeeper vessels. This was most prominent in the Nimban system, an outer rim system where the ZooKeeper Alliance was conducting much of their research. However, the rival scientific organization the '''DNA Bashers''' had also been increasingly moving their own military presence into the system in direct opposition to the ZooKeeper Alliance. After several weeks of growing tensions, things escalated into an all out battle between these two major scientific organizations as well as their allied forces.<br />
<br />
Rather than directly focusing on directly attacking enemy forces the Jawa crews quickly organized into a number of different salvaging crews. These salvaging crews focused on the recovery and extraction of key tactical assets from the battlefield, such as preserving the lives of the ZooKeeper Alliance research crews and their research equipment. After several days of operating, with many Jawas going sleepless nights thanks to modern stimulant technology, things escalated further with the DNA Bashers revealing a super weapon that they had been developing in the system. This super weapon was a duo Battle-class Meridian Frigate, a beast of a ship which packed the punch of a battle moon while moving about as fast. As a part of a joint attack with assistance indirectly from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] as well as the newly found friends in [[Chir`dorna Manufacturing]], an elite Jawa salvaging team led by [[Jic Uiji]] managed to evade the volleys of blaster fire and board one of the craft. After fighting their way to the bridge the Jawas managed to take control of the craft and to pull it out of the battle. However, it had sustained serious damage to nearly every system and it has not yet even closely returned to its full operational capacity. Not having the original schematics the Jawa repair teams were only able to return the ship to its original state as operating as a Meridian-class Frigate. Becoming the unofficial flagship of the JOE fleet, this ship has become known as the "Mary Dean" in honor of the nickname given to it by [[St'eve]], a Jawa fighter pilot who died at the Battle of Nimban.<br />
<br />
===Sasan===<br />
[[File:Jawacouncil.png|left]]<br />
<br />
After war was declared on Jawa Offworld Enterprises by the [[Galactic Empire]], and worst of all trade sanctions, the Jawa collective was drawn into conflict with the Empire. Initially this resulted in a number of minor skirmishes with no major impact to either side; however, as hostilities grew the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were increasingly looking for ways to profit from this war until peace could be made. As such, when rebellion broke out in the Corellian sector the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were some of the first on the scene. Making use of the shadow trade routes created in order to dodge imperial trade sanctions as well as their expertise in unusual operations the Jawas managed to expertly operate around hostile forces and and ensure that planetary defenses were created on rebelling planets in order to repel the coming imperial fleets and legions. Many of these operations were focused on the securing of the planet [[Sasan]] in the [[New Plympto (System)|New Plympto]] system, with the planet's scorching temperatures allowing Jawas to work far longer hours and more effectively than the Corellians trying the same. Working in cooperation with a number of pro-Corellian independence groups Jawa Offworld Enterprises was able to secure [[Sasan]] as well as several other nearby rebelling planets from invasion.<br />
<br />
With there being relatively minimal local population on Sasan, with most of the planetary population evacuating to the safer and more hospitable planet of [[New Plympto (Planet)|New Plympto]], the Jawa Offworld Enterprises took control of the planetary governance with permission of the alliance for Corellian independence. The Corellian people were notably sympathetic to the plight of Jawas around the galaxy and it was deemed best for the security of the planet and system if it was inhabited by a race which could better withstand the hot climate. Within days of this announcement, laws lowering the the sales and income taxes were put into effect. <br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
[[File:Joetrenchant.png|right]]<br />
{{Quote<br />
|quote = For decades, we have struggled, at times openly and at times covertly, against external interference on Tatooine. For eons the planet was open to all, allowing free trade and cultural exchange until galactic governments took advantage of our openness and restricted our way of life, culminating in the exodus of Jawa to look for better prospects. Now, we are the ones that took advantage. The clans once again control our ancestral planet, and we will work tirelessly to bring it back to its former glory free of oppression. <br />

<br />
Following the fall of the [[New Republic]] and the occupation of [[Tatooine]] by the [[Galactic Empire]], JOE deployed a large number of Jawas back to the planet from offworld. These Jawa's were tasked with ensuring that Jawa trade to and from Tatooine would continue despite the circumstances. These initial smuggling operations quickly escalated with the Jawa group deciding to devote significant resources to effectively creating a shadow government on the planet, filling the void left by the largely ineffective imperial appointees. Through the assistance of the shadowy robed figures of the [[Jawa Liberation Front]] as well as the pressure placed on the [[Galactic Empire]] throughout the [[Arkanis]] sector by [[The Resistance]] the imperial forces eventually pulled out entirely, leaving the Jawas free to seize power in the vacuum and take control of the planet and its defense installations.<br />
<br />
==Structure==<br />
<br />
The structure of JOE is largely divided into two separate parts, typically referred to as JOE Businesses and JOE Command. JOE Businesses make up the bulk of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, and covers the many different individual Jawa enterprises which have been invested in and assisted by JOE. On the other hand, JOE command is the umbrella organization that ensures the prosperity of the JOE businesses as well as handling the coordination for Jawa efforts on larger operations. However, there is often a large degree of overlap between the two sections and individual Jawas often work in both JOE Command and specific JOE Businesses.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has repeatedly stated that it is their intention to trade freely with every sentient in the galaxy regardless of their political affiliation or location. However, due to a number of high profile diplomatic incidents as well as translation errors by faulty protocol droids the group of Jawas have found themselves navigating often turbulous diplomatic environments. There have been many incidents of this sort which never transpired into anything larger, most notable of which was a threat of war and trade sanctions from a member of the [[Galactic Alliance]] during the [[Battle of Nimban]] as well as an incident with a separate government over the question of droid theft. However, not all diplomatic incidents managed to be quickly resolved. The [[Galactic Empire]] famously declared war on JOE and placed trade sanctions against them only days after the founding of the group, likely a result of JOE being vehemently pro Jawa and alien rights as well as the history of [[Jic Uiji]] as an enemy of the empire. <br />
<br />
===Politics of Tatooine===<br />
<br />
While effectively in a position of governance, the Jawa corporation has little interest in the day to day legalities which are normally entailed in that position. Instead JOE focuses primarily on controlling the economic policies of the planet as a whole and on creating an environment that is ultimately better for Jawa business. Matters such as what constitutes a crime, construction of social projects, and enforcement of laws is typically handled by local governance which varies widely based on the planetary area.<br />
<br />
==Organizations==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has a large number of Jawa organizations that it is affiliated with. The exact relationship between each of them and Jawa Offworld Enterprises as a whole will vary.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
:''Main article: [[Jawa Industrial Magi]]''<br />
<br />
Born out of the shamans, wise men, and religions of Tatooine are the Jawa Industrial Magi. Despite parts of this religion dating back as far as Jawa records go, this incarcenation is much more recent. With a focus on taking ancient traditions into the future through technology and industry, the Jawa Industrial Magi were founded. Practitioners of this religion vary greatly in beliefs, with the many existing conflicting records of the teaching of various Gods and prophets leading to greatly differing beliefs. <br />
<br />
Due to worries over conversion of Jawas, typically done by members of [[Alissma]] or [[Zhellic Ecclesiarchy]] by restricting business with those who followed other religions, [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] pushed to ensure that a religious institute would exist on the galactic scale for the Jawa people. The Magi provide support Jawas to follow their religion wherever they may be as well as handling many of the more charitable operations JOE has.<br />
<br />
===Twin Suns Trading===<br />
<br />
Twin Suns Trading opened for business on year 21 day 76 after savvy businesjawa Zu Icaz traded a droid to the failing owners and set to turn the business around from scrap to splendor as is the Jawa way. Bringing trade to the outer rim and beyond, we look to serve the galaxy with unsurpassed Jawa quality goods. All sentients, especially Jawas, should have access to safe markets and affordable transportation through our Starports for conducting their business Offworld.<br />
<br />
One of the more traditional "businesses" under the JOE umbrella TST primarily seeks to develop trading infrastructure for sentients across the galaxy. <br />
<br />
===Sarlacc Integrated Design===<br />
<br />
A business ran by [[Kolomon Seph]], the Sarlacc Pit seeks to customize what is often humancentric designed items and make them into something which is better functioning for the unique situations in the galaxy. This often includes specialized equipment for the [[Jawa]] people, with the Sarlacc Pit being responsible for much of the research into Jawa armor, weapon, tool, and ship design. This would eventually reform into the much larger business known as [[Sarlacc Integrated Design]] which is presently led by [[Rava Fejec]] and is mostly based on the moon of [[Chenini]], one of the three moons of [[Tatooine]].<br />
<br />
===Jawa Enforcement & Forensics Force===<br />
<br />
A recently formed arm of JOE, JEFF serves to organize policing efforts in the [[Tatoo]] system and to track down criminals who pose a threat to the Jawa way of life.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Advanced Resource Exploitation Directorate (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
The mining arm of JOE, JARED played a key role in establishing successful Jawa industry on Tatooine. Ran by [[Wizz Eeeklee]] it mined luxurious minerals such as Duracrete and Ryll. Eventually JARED would unceremoniously dissolve after the dirt haulers in several colonies unionized and lead a large strike, eventually seizing JARED's headquarters and forcing the business into bankruptcy. Attempts to reclaim JARED's headquarters have been largely unsuccessful, with the dirt haulers union having held out against a siege since late Y21 with no signs of stopping. The union strikers are rumored to have used their mining equipment to construct an elaborate series of tunnels to smuggle food and items in and out of the headquarters.<br />
<br />
===Maker's Offworld Medical===<br />
<br />
A joint business partnership with the [[Gordian Reach Authority]], [[Maker's Offworld Medical]] is a medical operation with a focus on taking the often human focused field of medicine and adapting it for Jawa needs. <br />
<br />
===Xenoarchaeological Institute (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A brief lived Jawa takeover, XI was primarily used to investigate ruins related to the [[Jawa]] people. Due to it being forbidden for non-Jawa to view the sacred remains of any Jawa it was important for the archaeological institute to be overseen by [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] during this time. It was eventually disbanded due to the Jawas running out of historical sites that were easy to find.<br />
<br />

<br />
Denton Dabbs is an Arcoduros Male. He is known to be kept to himself. At a young age he was recruited into The Antarian Rangers, and left his homeplanet of Cona.<br />
=History=<br />
After being pressured by all his friends, Denton left his homeworld of Cona on his YT-1210 "ARCO-82" on Year 9 Day 16 to join the Antarian Rangers, where he quickly rose in rank, and led the Supply Support and Transportation department. While in the Antarian Rangers, Denton had trained to join the Navy, and received minor training for the Antarian Ranger's Marshall. As a way to keep friendly relations with the New Republic, Denton was sent to aid Toskan Industries, a prominent item production company, owned by the New Republic. Denton worked as a Production Manager for Toskan Industries, until Black Sun infiltrators within the high ranks of the New Republic felt threatened by Denton's quick progression through Toskan Industries, and had him exiled to Tatooine. <br />
<br />
While on Tatooine, Denton found a recruiter for the Trade Federation inside a cantina. Denton quickly joined up with the Trade Federation, and grabbed the next shuttle to Asrat, where he was assigned AAT Pilot within the Trade Federation Army. Denton served a term piloting an AAT for the Trade Federation, and after the term was up, Denton received a message from his dear friend Machiezmo Juggalo, informing him that he was planning on starting up a recycling company: Crimson Veil, that had the support of Tion Hegemony, and offered Denton a job as the Head of Production. Time went on, working the factories on the moon Panna Prime, but during Denton's spare time, he began a secondary project, setting up a hidden Deep Space Base close by the Panna system, in this base, Denton constructed a Trading Class 2 Space Station, as well as an Ataturk Defense Station. Denton gathered resources, and developed his own fleet, and named it the "Dabbs Defense Force", or DDF for short. During this time, Denton received word from CEO Machiezmo Juggalo, that Crimson Veil just received two gas giants, Leafar and Leafar II. Denton set out to go help develop these newly found planets, in the lonely Ploo sector. <br />
<br />
Denton and Machiezmo set up a small production base within the Leafar system, but alas, interest in the Crimson Veil Recycling Group was dwindling from investors, and Crimson Veil had to close its doors, leaving the two gas giants in the hands of Aurodium Legion. During this time, Denton became a wanderer, dazed and confused of what to do next, and returned home, to his space base. Denton went on with life, until one day, he received a hefty donation from an anonymous source, 100mil credits. Denton used half of the credits to build a personal shipyard in his hidden deep space base, and the other half went to resurrecting Crimson Veil, under a new name; Leafar Group. Denton knew he did not have the knowledge to lead a faction by himself, so he enlisted his dear friend Machiezmo, and begged of him to lead Leafar Group to success, and so he did. Denton back at work by Machiezmo's side, continued to build up the planet Leafar, so that one day it's citizens could thrive. <br />
<br />
Time went on, Denton's workers produced his new flagship, a Corona-class ship "DDF Mandalhead". Later that evening, in an unfortunate accident, half of Leafar's workers were killed during a party to celebrate Leafar Group's success, by an unexplained explosion in the lower deck of the luxury yacht that the party was taking place on. With half of the workforce dead, Leafar Group was forced to close it's doors once again. Denton, at first tried to enlist the help of his former allies, The Antarian Rangers, to help protect the planet from pirates, and other such nefarious groups, but it was too late, the damage had already been done. Denton, saddened by the loss of the civilization that he'd helped grow on the planet of Leafar, lived quietly in the ruins of the fallen civilization for awhile, until one day, he decided to go back to his friends at Tion Hegemony. Denton was welcomed back into Tion with open arms, and quickly placed into Tion's Military, under the First Fleet. Denton spent a few years in First Fleet, rising to the rank of Commodore, and named as XO of First Fleet, but by Year 19, Denton had a change of heart regarding his position and stepped down, retiring from all official duties and joining Tion Mil/Sci to spend the rest of his days in.<br />
<br />
One day Dabbs then decided to join the [[Silviut Corporation]].<br />

The '''Arkanis Sector''' was a galactic region located in the [[Outer Rim Territories]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
The Arkanis sector has been a crossroads for traders and travelers. It is bordered by the Corellian Run which many used to travel from the Core Worlds to the Outer Rim and Wild Space. It was also crossed by the Triellus Trade Route, which led into Hutt Space. A subset of the sector were the Regency Worlds, a relatively prosperous region on the Corellian Run formed around the former Arkanis Regency. Unfortunately, this prosperity rarely extended to other parts of the sector, with only a mild boost in trade (and a significant one in crime) as Hutt interests moved in towards the end of the Republic.<ref name="Wookieepedia">[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Arkanis_sector Wookieepedia article on Arkanis Sector]</ref><br />

'''Jawa Offworld Enterprises''' is a megacorporation which primarily profits through the investment in and creation of [[Jawa]] business ventures. Despite only recently having been created the business quickly rose to prominence in the galaxy, being at the center of a number of galactic events. This has been largely attributed by the group to the natural skill at conducting business possessed by the [[Jawa]] people. Ironically, the group of "offworld" Jawas has had considerable activity focused on their homeworld of [[Tatooine]], after assuming control of the planet in mid [[Year 21]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Origins===<br />
<br />
The origins of the Jawa Offworld Enterprises traces back to a number of different movements related to sentient rights of Jawa's and other short of stature species. Starting off with the likes of legendary Jawas [[Het Patchateeka]], [[Uli-ah Gafsa]], [[Heek Jikjawa]], and [[Tik Tak]] a number of pro-Jawa initiatives were attempted with the goal of assisting Jawas who left behind their homeland of [[Tatooine]]. However, due to a number of high profile legal cases, murders, and other disappearances all of these Jawas faded from the public eye almost entirely by around Y18. This led to the formation of two different groups which sought to advance the Jawa cause, the '''Jawa Society''' in Y18 as well as the '''League of Extraordinary Small Sentients''' in Y19, otherwise known as '''LESS'''. It was from these two groups and several unfortunate incidents that [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] managed to achieve the necessary capital as well as enough Jawa employees to launch their first business ventures.<br />
<br />
====Jawa Society====<br />
<br />
The Jawa Society was a grouping of Jawas of intergalactic prominence with the goal of providing community and assistance for Jawas. Formed by Jawas [[Jic Uiji]], [[Garik Loren]], [[Greyson Abrams]], [[Eugene Delmarco]], and [[Christine Apotheosis]] in early Y18 the group successfully launched a number of pro-Jawa initiatives like providing safe sandcrawler housing for Jawas around the galaxy. Sadly, after the death of [[Garik Loren]] after a politically motivated murder, the departure of [[Christine Apotheosis]], and increasing rumors of [[Greyson Abrams]] having plans of eugenics for the Jawa race the Jawa Society as a whole was in an increasingly weakened state and one which no longer had support across the galactic political spectrum. This led to a large amount of the pro-Jawa operations being purely done by [[Jic Uiji]], who was at the time the Governor of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] overseeing the [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] rule of the planet. As such most of the Jawa initiatives were in the form of supporting Jawa immigration to the mostly desert planet of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] and the success of Jawas on the planet. After [[Jic Uiji]] was crippled by unidentified assailants during a routine "trip" to the galactic core, his influence in the pirate collective quickly diminished and he was forced into early retirement by his crew from both his position as a captain and as governor. This led to an effective ceasing of many pro-Jawa initiatives in [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] territory.<br />
<br />
====League of Extraordinary Small Sentients====<br />
<br />
The League of Extraordinary Small Sentients was focused not just on the success of Jawas, but rather all sentient species that were deemed "small". However, in practice, this effectively meant [[Chadra-Fan]], [[Ewok]], and [[Jawa]] sentients were assisted. This was due in no small part to the main 4 members of LESS, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], [[Ini Kedi]], and [[Kolomon Seph]]. After briefly existing purely as a sentient rights group most of the members reformed into a recycling corporation known at the time as [[Raas-Moretti Industries]] in partnership with [[Moretti'ameli'arose]], who was otherwise known as [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. This group successfully operated for a number of months in no small part due to the incredible business skill of its Jawa members; however, things did not last. After [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], who was not a member of the group but allied with it under the [[Galactica Group]], along with [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], co-leader of the organization, plotted and succesfully carried out the murder of [[Moretti'ameli'arose]] due to claimed "Overreach by the tall people into business operations" the business effectively ceased to exist. This move did not instill confidence in the employees of the organization that they would survive much longer if they remained, and within a month every major employee, largely the Jawa duo [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] had left for some reason. <br />
<br />
====Formation====<br />
<br />
With [[Jic Uiji]] from the Jawa Society along with [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] from LESS all recently disenfranchised for some reason it was a seemingly perfect time for events to transpire. With most of them having worked together before, it was no surprise that they felt that they as a group had the experience to start a new business venture. After meeting in what is rumored to be a Jawa only diner in the northeast rim the group sat down and after hours of negotiations formed the creation contracts of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, an organization ran by Jawas and for Jawas so that their people could prosper. Of course, the contracts included a number of clauses so that they could prosper extensively themselves. Within hours of signing the contracts, the trio went public with their announcement of the formation on Year 19 Day 362.<br />
<br />
===Deep Space===<br />
<br />
Looking to establish some form of base out of which to operate and live, the Jawas spent several weeks debating where Jawas could best settle off of [[Tatooine]]. Eventually it was determined that no matter where they went they would be subject to the rule of those who are not Jawas, and that was unacceptable to them. As such, the group went out into the great cold unknowns and established an area in which they could operate. Outside of any legitimate governmental jurisdiction, the group settled among the asteroid fields of the northeastern rim. This deep space location was where almost all JOE trade passed through, largely for tax reasons. This took a significant toll on many of the Jawas, who yearned for the heat of suns on their skin again. As such, many Jawas were motivated to enlist into expeditions for a planet that they could call their own and settle on.<br />
<br />

The groups first major operation was that of the salvaging of an estimated 20% of of the infrastructure of the planet [[Dalisor]], infrastructure that was deemed to be outdated and unsafe to live in. With a salvaging team primarily led by [[Tilba Ugama]], a Jawa who was fresh off of Tatooine, the group managed to to clear out kilotons of building materials. Most of these materials went directly to smaller Jawa businesses operating under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises umbrella, which repurposed everything they could for resale. It was in this period of mass wrecking/salvaging that Jawa Offworld Enterprises briefly spent several months as controlling a majority of the salvaging market, even though after receiving payment the group decided to move into more lucrative industries. This also saw the rise of [[Tilba Ugama]] to prominence in the organization.<br />
<br />
===The New Tent Order to Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
<br />
After hearing of rumored instability in the [[New Tent Order]], a religious organization which gained surprising prominence, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises decided to capitalize on the situation for the benefit of the Jawa race. Large numbers of Jawas were sent to register as devout believers of the New Tent Order moments before the heretic [[Fleuf Naze]] embarked on a suicidal quest to the center of a black hole. With the next leader being unclear, the Jawas were able to swing the public opinion and voting in favor of [[Jic Uiji]]. As the newly chosen tent leader, Jic Uiji took control of all tent order temples, churches, religious artifacts, and other assets before declaring that the group was reforming to an entirely different belief system. This belief system being the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]], a religion that had existed on [[Tatooine]] among the Jawas but had been struggling for intergalactic prominence. While being a secular organization, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises defended this move stating that it was neccesary for their independence and profits that the business and its people were not subject to any human religious authority.<br />
<br />
===Battle of Nimban===<br />
[[File:Jawameridianbattle.png|right]]<br />
:''Main article: [[Battle of Nimban]]''<br />
The '''Battle of Nimban''' also know as '''"Bopom Kova Upezzo M’tuske"''' among the Jawas was a major operation that saw the group shift increasingly militant as well as resulting in a number of alliances. After the Jawa Offworld Enterprises entered into an agreement with the '''ZooKeeper Alliance''' to provide assistance for their scientific research endeavors groups of Jawa fighter wings and research teams were seen increasingly flying alongside ZooKeeper vessels. This was most prominent in the Nimban system, an outer rim system where the ZooKeeper Alliance was conducting much of their research. However, the rival scientific organization the '''DNA Bashers''' had also been increasingly moving their own military presence into the system in direct opposition to the ZooKeeper Alliance. After several weeks of growing tensions, things escalated into an all out battle between these two major scientific organizations as well as their allied forces.<br />
<br />
Rather than directly focusing on directly attacking enemy forces the Jawa crews quickly organized into a number of different salvaging crews. These salvaging crews focused on the recovery and extraction of key tactical assets from the battlefield, such as preserving the lives of the ZooKeeper Alliance research crews and their research equipment. After several days of operating, with many Jawas going sleepless nights thanks to modern stimulant technology, things escalated further with the DNA Bashers revealing a super weapon that they had been developing in the system. This super weapon was a duo Battle-class Meridian Frigate, a beast of a ship which packed the punch of a battle moon while moving about as fast. As a part of a joint attack with assistance indirectly from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] as well as the newly found friends in [[Chir`dorna Manufacturing]], an elite Jawa salvaging team led by [[Jic Uiji]] managed to evade the volleys of blaster fire and board one of the craft. After fighting their way to the bridge the Jawas managed to take control of the craft and to pull it out of the battle. However, it had sustained serious damage to nearly every system and it has not yet even closely returned to its full operational capacity. Not having the original schematics the Jawa repair teams were only able to return the ship to its original state as operating as a Meridian-class Frigate. Becoming the unofficial flagship of the JOE fleet, this ship has become known as the "Mary Dean" in honor of the nickname given to it by [[St'eve]], a Jawa fighter pilot who died at the Battle of Nimban.<br />
<br />
===Sasan===<br />
[[File:Jawacouncil.png|left]]<br />
<br />
After war was declared on Jawa Offworld Enterprises by the [[Galactic Empire]], and worst of all trade sanctions, the Jawa collective was drawn into conflict with the Empire. Initially this resulted in a number of minor skirmishes with no major impact to either side; however, as hostilities grew the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were increasingly looking for ways to profit from this war until peace could be made. As such, when rebellion broke out in the Corellian sector the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were some of the first on the scene. Making use of the shadow trade routes created in order to dodge imperial trade sanctions as well as their expertise in unusual operations the Jawas managed to expertly operate around hostile forces and and ensure that planetary defenses were created on rebelling planets in order to repel the coming imperial fleets and legions. Many of these operations were focused on the securing of the planet [[Sasan]] in the [[New Plympto (System)|New Plympto]] system, with the planet's scorching temperatures allowing Jawas to work far longer hours and more effectively than the Corellians trying the same. Working in cooperation with a number of pro-Corellian independence groups Jawa Offworld Enterprises was able to secure [[Sasan]] as well as several other nearby rebelling planets from invasion.<br />
<br />
With there being relatively minimal local population on Sasan, with most of the planetary population evacuating to the safer and more hospitable planet of [[New Plympto (Planet)|New Plympto]], the Jawa Offworld Enterprises took control of the planetary governance with permission of the alliance for Corellian independence. The Corellian people were notably sympathetic to the plight of Jawas around the galaxy and it was deemed best for the security of the planet and system if it was inhabited by a race which could better withstand the hot climate. Within days of this announcement, laws lowering the the sales and income taxes were put into effect. <br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
[[File:Joetrenchant.png|right]]<br />
{{Quote<br />
|quote = For decades, we have struggled, at times openly and at times covertly, against external interference on Tatooine. For eons the planet was open to all, allowing free trade and cultural exchange until galactic governments took advantage of our openness and restricted our way of life, culminating in the exodus of Jawa to look for better prospects. Now, we are the ones that took advantage. The clans once again control our ancestral planet, and we will work tirelessly to bring it back to its former glory free of oppression. <br />
|person = [[Ini Kedi]] speaking after the liberation of Tatooine.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Following the fall of the [[New Republic]] and the occupation of [[Tatooine]] by the [[Galactic Empire]], JOE deployed a large number of Jawas back to the planet from offworld. These Jawa's were tasked with ensuring that Jawa trade to and from Tatooine would continue despite the circumstances. These initial smuggling operations quickly escalated with the Jawa group deciding to devote significant resources to effectively creating a shadow government on the planet, filling the void left by the largely ineffective imperial appointees. Through the assistance of the shadowy robed figures of the [[Jawa Liberation Front]] as well as the pressure placed on the [[Galactic Empire]] throughout the [[Arkanis]] sector by [[The Resistance]] the imperial forces eventually pulled out entirely, leaving the Jawas free to seize power in the vacuum and take control of the planet and its defense installations.<br />
<br />
==Structure==<br />
<br />
The structure of JOE is largely divided into two separate parts, typically referred to as JOE Businesses and JOE Command. JOE Businesses make up the bulk of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, and covers the many different individual Jawa enterprises which have been invested in and assisted by JOE. On the other hand, JOE command is the umbrella organization that ensures the prosperity of the JOE businesses as well as handling the coordination for Jawa efforts on larger operations. However, there is often a large degree of overlap between the two sections and individual Jawas often work in both JOE Command and specific JOE Businesses.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has repeatedly stated that it is their intention to trade freely with every sentient in the galaxy regardless of their political affiliation or location. However, due to a number of high profile diplomatic incidents as well as translation errors by faulty protocol droids the group of Jawas have found themselves navigating often turbulous diplomatic environments. There have been many incidents of this sort which never transpired into anything larger, most notable of which was a threat of war and trade sanctions from a member of the [[Galactic Alliance]] during the [[Battle of Nimban]] as well as an incident with a separate government over the question of droid theft. However, not all diplomatic incidents managed to be quickly resolved. The [[Galactic Empire]] famously declared war on JOE and placed trade sanctions against them only days after the founding of the group, likely a result of JOE being vehemently pro Jawa and alien rights as well as the history of [[Jic Uiji]] as an enemy of the empire. <br />
<br />
===Politics of Tatooine===<br />
<br />
While effectively in a position of governance, the Jawa corporation has little interest in the day to day legalities which are normally entailed in that position. Instead JOE focuses primarily on controlling the economic policies of the planet as a whole and on creating an environment that is ultimately better for Jawa business. Matters such as what constitutes a crime, construction of social projects, and enforcement of laws is typically handled by local governance which varies widely based on the planetary area.<br />
<br />
==Organizations==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has a large number of Jawa organizations that it is affiliated with. The exact relationship between each of them and Jawa Offworld Enterprises as a whole will vary.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
:''Main article: [[Jawa Industrial Magi]]''<br />
<br />
Born out of the shamans, wise men, and religions of Tatooine are the Jawa Industrial Magi. Despite parts of this religion dating back as far as Jawa records go, this incarcenation is much more recent. With a focus on taking ancient traditions into the future through technology and industry, the Jawa Industrial Magi were founded. Practitioners of this religion vary greatly in beliefs, with the many existing conflicting records of the teaching of various Gods and prophets leading to greatly differing beliefs. <br />
<br />
Due to worries over conversion of Jawas, typically done by members of [[Alissma]] or [[Zhellic Ecclesiarchy]] by restricting business with those who followed other religions, [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] pushed to ensure that a religious institute would exist on the galactic scale for the Jawa people. The Magi provide support Jawas to follow their religion wherever they may be as well as handling many of the more charitable operations JOE has.<br />
<br />
===Twin Suns Trading===<br />
<br />
Twin Suns Trading opened for business on year 21 day 76 after savvy businesjawa Zu Icaz traded a droid to the failing owners and set to turn the business around from scrap to splendor as is the Jawa way. Bringing trade to the outer rim and beyond, we look to serve the galaxy with unsurpassed Jawa quality goods. All sentients, especially Jawas, should have access to safe markets and affordable transportation through our Starports for conducting their business Offworld.<br />
<br />
One of the more traditional "businesses" under the JOE umbrella TST primarily seeks to develop trading infrastructure for sentients across the galaxy. <br />
<br />
===Sarlacc Integrated Design===<br />
<br />
A business ran by [[Kolomon Seph]], the Sarlacc Pit seeks to customize what is often humancentric designed items and make them into something which is better functioning for the unique situations in the galaxy. This often includes specialized equipment for the [[Jawa]] people, with the Sarlacc Pit being responsible for much of the research into Jawa armor, weapon, tool, and ship design. This would eventually reform into the much larger business known as [[Sarlacc Integrated Design]] which is presently led by [[Rava Fejec]] and is mostly based on the moon of [[Chenini]], one of the three moons of [[Tatooine]].<br />
<br />
===Jawa Enforcement & Forensics Force===<br />
<br />
A recently formed arm of JOE, JEFF serves to organize policing efforts in the [[Tatoo]] system and to track down criminals who pose a threat to the Jawa way of life.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Advanced Resource Exploitation Directorate (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
The mining arm of JOE, JARED played a key role in establishing successful Jawa industry on Tatooine. Ran by [[Wizz Eeeklee]] it mined luxurious minerals such as Duracrete and Ryll. Eventually JARED would unceremoniously dissolve after the dirt haulers in several colonies unionized and lead a large strike, eventually seizing JARED's headquarters and forcing the business into bankruptcy. Attempts to reclaim JARED's headquarters have been largely unsuccessful, with the dirt haulers union having held out against a siege since late Y21 with no signs of stopping. The union strikers are rumored to have used their mining equipment to construct an elaborate series of tunnels to smuggle food and items in and out of the headquarters.<br />
<br />
===Maker's Offworld Medical===<br />
<br />
A joint business partnership with the [[Gordian Reach Authority]], [[Maker's Offworld Medical]] is a medical operation with a focus on taking the often human focused field of medicine and adapting it for Jawa needs. <br />
<br />
===Xenoarchaeological Institute (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A brief lived Jawa takeover, XI was primarily used to investigate ruins related to the [[Jawa]] people. Due to it being forbidden for non-Jawa to view the sacred remains of any Jawa it was important for the archaeological institute to be overseen by [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] during this time. It was eventually disbanded due to the Jawas running out of historical sites that were easy to find.<br />
<br />
==Employee Of The Month==<br />
<br />
A great title and honor, bestowed upon members of Jawa Offworld Enterprises who rise above the rest and demonstrate exemplary ability in the workplace. This signifies that a Jawa is not just skilled but also has a tremendous work ethic, one that will likely take them far in the galaxy.<br />

}}<br />
'''Jawa Offworld Enterprises''' is a megacorporation which primarily profits through the investment in and creation of [[Jawa]] business ventures. Despite only recently having been created the business quickly rose to prominence in the galaxy, being at the center of a number of galactic events. This has been largely attributed by the group to the natural skill at conducting business possessed by the [[Jawa]] people. Ironically, the group of "offworld" Jawas has had considerable activity focused on their homeworld of [[Tatooine]], after assuming control of the planet in mid [[Year 21]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Origins===<br />
<br />
The origins of the Jawa Offworld Enterprises traces back to a number of different movements related to sentient rights of Jawa's and other short of stature species. Starting off with the likes of legendary Jawas [[Het Patchateeka]], [[Uli-ah Gafsa]], [[Heek Jikjawa]], and [[Tik Tak]] a number of pro-Jawa initiatives were attempted with the goal of assisting Jawas who left behind their homeland of [[Tatooine]]. However, due to a number of high profile legal cases, murders, and other disappearances all of these Jawas faded from the public eye almost entirely by around Y18. This led to the formation of two different groups which sought to advance the Jawa cause, the '''Jawa Society''' in Y18 as well as the '''League of Extraordinary Small Sentients''' in Y19, otherwise known as '''LESS'''. It was from these two groups and several unfortunate incidents that [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] managed to achieve the necessary capital as well as enough Jawa employees to launch their first business ventures.<br />
<br />
====Jawa Society====<br />
<br />
The Jawa Society was a grouping of Jawas of intergalactic prominence with the goal of providing community and assistance for Jawas. Formed by Jawas [[Jic Uiji]], [[Garik Loren]], [[Greyson Abrams]], [[Eugene Delmarco]], and [[Christine Apotheosis]] in early Y18 the group successfully launched a number of pro-Jawa initiatives like providing safe sandcrawler housing for Jawas around the galaxy. Sadly, after the death of [[Garik Loren]] after a politically motivated murder, the departure of [[Christine Apotheosis]], and increasing rumors of [[Greyson Abrams]] having plans of eugenics for the Jawa race the Jawa Society as a whole was in an increasingly weakened state and one which no longer had support across the galactic political spectrum. This led to a large amount of the pro-Jawa operations being purely done by [[Jic Uiji]], who was at the time the Governor of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] overseeing the [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] rule of the planet. As such most of the Jawa initiatives were in the form of supporting Jawa immigration to the mostly desert planet of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] and the success of Jawas on the planet. After [[Jic Uiji]] was crippled by unidentified assailants during a routine "trip" to the galactic core, his influence in the pirate collective quickly diminished and he was forced into early retirement by his crew from both his position as a captain and as governor. This led to an effective ceasing of many pro-Jawa initiatives in [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] territory.<br />
<br />
====League of Extraordinary Small Sentients====<br />
<br />
The League of Extraordinary Small Sentients was focused not just on the success of Jawas, but rather all sentient species that were deemed "small". However, in practice, this effectively meant [[Chadra-Fan]], [[Ewok]], and [[Jawa]] sentients were assisted. This was due in no small part to the main 4 members of LESS, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], [[Ini Kedi]], and [[Kolomon Seph]]. After briefly existing purely as a sentient rights group most of the members reformed into a recycling corporation known at the time as [[Raas-Moretti Industries]] in partnership with [[Moretti'ameli'arose]], who was otherwise known as [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. This group successfully operated for a number of months in no small part due to the incredible business skill of its Jawa members; however, things did not last. After [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], who was not a member of the group but allied with it under the [[Galactica Group]], along with [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], co-leader of the organization, plotted and succesfully carried out the murder of [[Moretti'ameli'arose]] due to claimed "Overreach by the tall people into business operations" the business effectively ceased to exist. This move did not instill confidence in the employees of the organization that they would survive much longer if they remained, and within a month every major employee, largely the Jawa duo [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] had left for some reason. <br />
<br />
====Formation====<br />
<br />
With [[Jic Uiji]] from the Jawa Society along with [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] from LESS all recently disenfranchised for some reason it was a seemingly perfect time for events to transpire. With most of them having worked together before, it was no surprise that they felt that they as a group had the experience to start a new business venture. After meeting in what is rumored to be a Jawa only diner in the northeast rim the group sat down and after hours of negotiations formed the creation contracts of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, an organization ran by Jawas and for Jawas so that their people could prosper. Of course, the contracts included a number of clauses so that they could prosper extensively themselves. Within hours of signing the contracts, the trio went public with their announcement of the formation on Year 19 Day 362.<br />
<br />
===Deep Space===<br />
<br />
Looking to establish some form of base out of which to operate and live, the Jawas spent several weeks debating where Jawas could best settle off of [[Tatooine]]. Eventually it was determined that no matter where they went they would be subject to the rule of those who are not Jawas, and that was unacceptable to them. As such, the group went out into the great cold unknowns and established an area in which they could operate. Outside of any legitimate governmental jurisdiction, the group settled among the asteroid fields of the northeastern rim. This deep space location was where almost all JOE trade passed through, largely for tax reasons. This took a significant toll on many of the Jawas, who yearned for the heat of suns on their skin again. As such, many Jawas were motivated to enlist into expeditions for a planet that they could call their own and settle on.<br />
<br />
===Industrial Salvage===<br />
<br />
The groups first major operation was that of the salvaging of an estimated 20% of of the infrastructure of the planet [[Dalisor]], infrastructure that was deemed to be outdated and unsafe to live in. With a salvaging team primarily led by [[Tilba Ugama]], a Jawa who was fresh off of Tatooine, the group managed to to clear out kilotons of building materials. Most of these materials went directly to smaller Jawa businesses operating under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises umbrella, which repurposed everything they could for resale. It was in this period of mass wrecking/salvaging that Jawa Offworld Enterprises briefly spent several months as controlling a majority of the salvaging market, even though after receiving payment the group decided to move into more lucrative industries. This also saw the rise of [[Tilba Ugama]] to prominence in the organization.<br />
<br />
===The New Tent Order to Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
<br />
After hearing of rumored instability in the [[New Tent Order]], a religious organization which gained surprising prominence, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises decided to capitalize on the situation for the benefit of the Jawa race. Large numbers of Jawas were sent to register as devout believers of the New Tent Order moments before the heretic [[Fleuf Naze]] embarked on a suicidal quest to the center of a black hole. With the next leader being unclear, the Jawas were able to swing the public opinion and voting in favor of [[Jic Uiji]]. As the newly chosen tent leader, Jic Uiji took control of all tent order temples, churches, religious artifacts, and other assets before declaring that the group was reforming to an entirely different belief system. This belief system being the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]], a religion that had existed on [[Tatooine]] among the Jawas but had been struggling for intergalactic prominence. While being a secular organization, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises defended this move stating that it was neccesary for their independence and profits that the business and its people were not subject to any human religious authority.<br />
<br />
===Battle of Nimban===<br />
[[File:Jawameridianbattle.png|right]]<br />
:''Main article: [[Battle of Nimban]]''<br />
The '''Battle of Nimban''' also know as '''"Bopom Kova Upezzo M’tuske"''' among the Jawas was a major operation that saw the group shift increasingly militant as well as resulting in a number of alliances. After the Jawa Offworld Enterprises entered into an agreement with the '''ZooKeeper Alliance''' to provide assistance for their scientific research endeavors groups of Jawa fighter wings and research teams were seen increasingly flying alongside ZooKeeper vessels. This was most prominent in the Nimban system, an outer rim system where the ZooKeeper Alliance was conducting much of their research. However, the rival scientific organization the '''DNA Bashers''' had also been increasingly moving their own military presence into the system in direct opposition to the ZooKeeper Alliance. After several weeks of growing tensions, things escalated into an all out battle between these two major scientific organizations as well as their allied forces.<br />
<br />
Rather than directly focusing on directly attacking enemy forces the Jawa crews quickly organized into a number of different salvaging crews. These salvaging crews focused on the recovery and extraction of key tactical assets from the battlefield, such as preserving the lives of the ZooKeeper Alliance research crews and their research equipment. After several days of operating, with many Jawas going sleepless nights thanks to modern stimulant technology, things escalated further with the DNA Bashers revealing a super weapon that they had been developing in the system. This super weapon was a duo Battle-class Meridian Frigate, a beast of a ship which packed the punch of a battle moon while moving about as fast. As a part of a joint attack with assistance indirectly from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] as well as the newly found friends in [[Chir`dorna Manufacturing]], an elite Jawa salvaging team led by [[Jic Uiji]] managed to evade the volleys of blaster fire and board one of the craft. After fighting their way to the bridge the Jawas managed to take control of the craft and to pull it out of the battle. However, it had sustained serious damage to nearly every system and it has not yet even closely returned to its full operational capacity. Not having the original schematics the Jawa repair teams were only able to return the ship to its original state as operating as a Meridian-class Frigate. Becoming the unofficial flagship of the JOE fleet, this ship has become known as the "Mary Dean" in honor of the nickname given to it by [[St'eve]], a Jawa fighter pilot who died at the Battle of Nimban.<br />

After war was declared on Jawa Offworld Enterprises by the [[Galactic Empire]], and worst of all trade sanctions, the Jawa collective was drawn into conflict with the Empire. Initially this resulted in a number of minor skirmishes with no major impact to either side; however, as hostilities grew the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were increasingly looking for ways to profit from this war until peace could be made. As such, when rebellion broke out in the Corellian sector the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were some of the first on the scene. Making use of the shadow trade routes created in order to dodge imperial trade sanctions as well as their expertise in unusual operations the Jawas managed to expertly operate around hostile forces and and ensure that planetary defenses were created on rebelling planets in order to repel the coming imperial fleets and legions. Many of these operations were focused on the securing of the planet [[Sasan]] in the [[New Plympto (System)|New Plympto]] system, with the planet's scorching temperatures allowing Jawas to work far longer hours and more effectively than the Corellians trying the same. Working in cooperation with a number of pro-Corellian independence groups Jawa Offworld Enterprises was able to secure [[Sasan]] as well as several other nearby rebelling planets from invasion.<br />
<br />
With there being relatively minimal local population on Sasan, with most of the planetary population evacuating to the safer and more hospitable planet of [[New Plympto (Planet)|New Plympto]], the Jawa Offworld Enterprises took control of the planetary governance with permission of the alliance for Corellian independence. The Corellian people were notably sympathetic to the plight of Jawas around the galaxy and it was deemed best for the security of the planet and system if it was inhabited by a race which could better withstand the hot climate. Within days of this announcement, laws lowering the the sales and income taxes were put into effect. <br />

<br />
Following the fall of the [[New Republic]] and the occupation of [[Tatooine]] by the [[Galactic Empire]], JOE deployed a large number of Jawas back to the planet from offworld. These Jawa's were tasked with ensuring that Jawa trade to and from Tatooine would continue despite the circumstances. These initial smuggling operations quickly escalated with the Jawa group deciding to devote significant resources to effectively creating a shadow government on the planet, filling the void left by the largely ineffective imperial appointees. Through the assistance of the shadowy robed figures of the [[Jawa Liberation Front]] as well as the pressure placed on the [[Galactic Empire]] throughout the [[Arkanis]] sector by [[The Resistance]] the imperial forces eventually pulled out entirely, leaving the Jawas free to seize power in the vacuum and take control of the planet and its defense installations.<br />
<br />
==Structure==<br />
<br />
The structure of JOE is largely divided into two separate parts, typically referred to as JOE Businesses and JOE Command. JOE Businesses make up the bulk of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, and covers the many different individual Jawa enterprises which have been invested in and assisted by JOE. On the other hand, JOE command is the umbrella organization that ensures the prosperity of the JOE businesses as well as handling the coordination for Jawa efforts on larger operations. However, there is often a large degree of overlap between the two sections and individual Jawas often work in both JOE Command and specific JOE Businesses.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has repeatedly stated that it is their intention to trade freely with every sentient in the galaxy regardless of their political affiliation or location. However, due to a number of high profile diplomatic incidents as well as translation errors by faulty protocol droids the group of Jawas have found themselves navigating often turbulous diplomatic environments. There have been many incidents of this sort which never transpired into anything larger, most notable of which was a threat of war and trade sanctions from a member of the [[Galactic Alliance]] during the [[Battle of Nimban]] as well as an incident with a separate government over the question of droid theft. However, not all diplomatic incidents managed to be quickly resolved. The [[Galactic Empire]] famously declared war on JOE and placed trade sanctions against them only days after the founding of the group, likely a result of JOE being vehemently pro Jawa and alien rights as well as the history of [[Jic Uiji]] as an enemy of the empire. <br />
<br />
===Politics of Tatooine===<br />
<br />
While effectively in a position of governance, the Jawa corporation has little interest in the day to day legalities which are normally entailed in that position. Instead JOE focuses primarily on controlling the economic policies of the planet as a whole and on creating an environment that is ultimately better for Jawa business. Matters such as what constitutes a crime, construction of social projects, and enforcement of laws is typically handled by local governance which varies widely based on the planetary area.<br />
<br />
==Organizations==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has a large number of Jawa organizations that it is affiliated with. The exact relationship between each of them and Jawa Offworld Enterprises as a whole will vary.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
:''Main article: [[Jawa Industrial Magi]]''<br />
<br />
Born out of the shamans, wise men, and religions of Tatooine are the Jawa Industrial Magi. Despite parts of this religion dating back as far as Jawa records go, this incarcenation is much more recent. With a focus on taking ancient traditions into the future through technology and industry, the Jawa Industrial Magi were founded. Practitioners of this religion vary greatly in beliefs, with the many existing conflicting records of the teaching of various Gods and prophets leading to greatly differing beliefs. <br />
<br />
Due to worries over conversion of Jawas, typically done by members of [[Alissma]] or [[Zhellic Ecclesiarchy]] by restricting business with those who followed other religions, [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] pushed to ensure that a religious institute would exist on the galactic scale for the Jawa people. The Magi provide support Jawas to follow their religion wherever they may be as well as handling many of the more charitable operations JOE has.<br />
<br />
===Twin Suns Trading===<br />
<br />
Twin Suns Trading opened for business on year 21 day 76 after savvy businesjawa Zu Icaz traded a droid to the failing owners and set to turn the business around from scrap to splendor as is the Jawa way. Bringing trade to the outer rim and beyond, we look to serve the galaxy with unsurpassed Jawa quality goods. All sentients, especially Jawas, should have access to safe markets and affordable transportation through our Starports for conducting their business Offworld.<br />
<br />
One of the more traditional "businesses" under the JOE umbrella TST primarily seeks to develop trading infrastructure for sentients across the galaxy. <br />
<br />
===Sarlacc Integrated Design===<br />
<br />
A business ran by [[Kolomon Seph]], the Sarlacc Pit seeks to customize what is often humancentric designed items and make them into something which is better functioning for the unique situations in the galaxy. This often includes specialized equipment for the [[Jawa]] people, with the Sarlacc Pit being responsible for much of the research into Jawa armor, weapon, tool, and ship design. This would eventually reform into the much larger business known as [[Sarlacc Integrated Design]] which is presently led by [[Rava Fejec]] and is mostly based on the moon of [[Chenini]], one of the three moons of [[Tatooine]].<br />
<br />
===Jawa Enforcement & Forensics Force===<br />
<br />
A recently formed arm of JOE, JEFF serves to organize policing efforts in the [[Tatoo]] system and to track down criminals who pose a threat to the Jawa way of life.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Advanced Resource Exploitation Directorate (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
The mining arm of JOE, JARED played a key role in establishing successful Jawa industry on Tatooine. Ran by [[Wizz Eeeklee]] it mined luxurious minerals such as Duracrete and Ryll. Eventually JARED would unceremoniously dissolve after the dirt haulers in several colonies unionized and lead a large strike, eventually seizing JARED's headquarters and forcing the business into bankruptcy. Attempts to reclaim JARED's headquarters have been largely unsuccessful, with the dirt haulers union having held out against a siege since late Y21 with no signs of stopping. The union strikers are rumored to have used their mining equipment to construct an elaborate series of tunnels to smuggle food and items in and out of the headquarters.<br />
<br />
===Maker's Offworld Medical===<br />
<br />
A joint business partnership with the [[Gordian Reach Authority]], [[Maker's Offworld Medical]] is a medical operation with a focus on taking the often human focused field of medicine and adapting it for Jawa needs. <br />
<br />
===Xenoarchaeological Institute (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A brief lived Jawa takeover, XI was primarily used to investigate ruins related to the [[Jawa]] people. Due to it being forbidden for non-Jawa to view the sacred remains of any Jawa it was important for the archaeological institute to be overseen by [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] during this time. It was eventually disbanded due to the Jawas running out of historical sites that were easy to find.<br />
<br />
==Employee Of The Month==<br />
<br />
A great title and honor, bestowed upon members of Jawa Offworld Enterprises who rise above the rest and demonstrate exemplary ability in the workplace. This signifies that a Jawa is not just skilled but also has a tremendous work ethic, one that will likely take them far in the galaxy.<br />

'''Jawa Offworld Enterprises''' is a megacorporation which primarily profits through the investment in and creation of [[Jawa]] business ventures. Despite only recently having been created the business quickly rose to prominence in the galaxy, being at the center of a number of galactic events. This has been largely attributed by the group to the natural skill at conducting business possessed by the [[Jawa]] people. Ironically, the group of "offworld" Jawas has had considerable activity focused on their homeworld of [[Tatooine]], after assuming control of the planet in mid [[Year 21]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Origins===<br />
<br />
The origins of the Jawa Offworld Enterprises traces back to a number of different movements related to sentient rights of Jawa's and other short of stature species. Starting off with the likes of legendary Jawas [[Het Patchateeka]], [[Uli-ah Gafsa]], [[Heek Jikjawa]], and [[Tik Tak]] a number of pro-Jawa initiatives were attempted with the goal of assisting Jawas who left behind their homeland of [[Tatooine]]. However, due to a number of high profile legal cases, murders, and other disappearances all of these Jawas faded from the public eye almost entirely by around Y18. This led to the formation of two different groups which sought to advance the Jawa cause, the '''Jawa Society''' in Y18 as well as the '''League of Extraordinary Small Sentients''' in Y19, otherwise known as '''LESS'''. It was from these two groups and several unfortunate incidents that [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] managed to achieve the necessary capital as well as enough Jawa employees to launch their first business ventures.<br />
<br />
====Jawa Society====<br />
<br />
The Jawa Society was a grouping of Jawas of intergalactic prominence with the goal of providing community and assistance for Jawas. Formed by Jawas [[Jic Uiji]], [[Garik Loren]], [[Greyson Abrams]], [[Eugene Delmarco]], and [[Christine Apotheosis]] in early Y18 the group successfully launched a number of pro-Jawa initiatives like providing safe sandcrawler housing for Jawas around the galaxy. Sadly, after the death of [[Garik Loren]] after a politically motivated murder, the departure of [[Christine Apotheosis]], and increasing rumors of [[Greyson Abrams]] having plans of eugenics for the Jawa race the Jawa Society as a whole was in an increasingly weakened state and one which no longer had support across the galactic political spectrum. This led to a large amount of the pro-Jawa operations being purely done by [[Jic Uiji]], who was at the time the Governor of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] overseeing the [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] rule of the planet. As such most of the Jawa initiatives were in the form of supporting Jawa immigration to the mostly desert planet of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] and the success of Jawas on the planet. After [[Jic Uiji]] was crippled by unidentified assailants during a routine "trip" to the galactic core, his influence in the pirate collective quickly diminished and he was forced into early retirement by his crew from both his position as a captain and as governor. This led to an effective ceasing of many pro-Jawa initiatives in [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] territory.<br />
<br />
====League of Extraordinary Small Sentients====<br />
<br />
The League of Extraordinary Small Sentients was focused not just on the success of Jawas, but rather all sentient species that were deemed "small". However, in practice, this effectively meant [[Chadra-Fan]], [[Ewok]], and [[Jawa]] sentients were assisted. This was due in no small part to the main 4 members of LESS, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], [[Ini Kedi]], and [[Kolomon Seph]]. After briefly existing purely as a sentient rights group most of the members reformed into a recycling corporation known at the time as [[Raas-Moretti Industries]] in partnership with [[Moretti'ameli'arose]], who was otherwise known as [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. This group successfully operated for a number of months in no small part due to the incredible business skill of its Jawa members; however, things did not last. After [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], who was not a member of the group but allied with it under the [[Galactica Group]], along with [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], co-leader of the organization, plotted and succesfully carried out the murder of [[Moretti'ameli'arose]] due to claimed "Overreach by the tall people into business operations" the business effectively ceased to exist. This move did not instill confidence in the employees of the organization that they would survive much longer if they remained, and within a month every major employee, largely the Jawa duo [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] had left for some reason. <br />
<br />
====Formation====<br />
<br />
With [[Jic Uiji]] from the Jawa Society along with [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] from LESS all recently disenfranchised for some reason it was a seemingly perfect time for events to transpire. With most of them having worked together before, it was no surprise that they felt that they as a group had the experience to start a new business venture. After meeting in what is rumored to be a Jawa only diner in the northeast rim the group sat down and after hours of negotiations formed the creation contracts of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, an organization ran by Jawas and for Jawas so that their people could prosper. Of course, the contracts included a number of clauses so that they could prosper extensively themselves. Within hours of signing the contracts, the trio went public with their announcement of the formation on Year 19 Day 362.<br />
<br />
===Deep Space===<br />
<br />
Looking to establish some form of base out of which to operate and live, the Jawas spent several weeks debating where Jawas could best settle off of [[Tatooine]]. Eventually it was determined that no matter where they went they would be subject to the rule of those who are not Jawas, and that was unacceptable to them. As such, the group went out into the great cold unknowns and established an area in which they could operate. Outside of any legitimate governmental jurisdiction, the group settled among the asteroid fields of the northeastern rim. This deep space location was where almost all JOE trade passed through, largely for tax reasons. This took a significant toll on many of the Jawas, who yearned for the heat of suns on their skin again. As such, many Jawas were motivated to enlist into expeditions for a planet that they could call their own and settle on.<br />
<br />
===Industrial Salvage===<br />
<br />
The groups first major operation was that of the salvaging of an estimated 20% of of the infrastructure of the planet [[Dalisor]], infrastructure that was deemed to be outdated and unsafe to live in. With a salvaging team primarily led by [[Tilba Ugama]], a Jawa who was fresh off of Tatooine, the group managed to to clear out kilotons of building materials. Most of these materials went directly to smaller Jawa businesses operating under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises umbrella, which repurposed everything they could for resale. It was in this period of mass wrecking/salvaging that Jawa Offworld Enterprises briefly spent several months as controlling a majority of the salvaging market, even though after receiving payment the group decided to move into more lucrative industries. This also saw the rise of [[Tilba Ugama]] to prominence in the organization.<br />
<br />
===The New Tent Order to Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
<br />
After hearing of rumored instability in the [[New Tent Order]], a religious organization which gained surprising prominence, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises decided to capitalize on the situation for the benefit of the Jawa race. Large numbers of Jawas were sent to register as devout believers of the New Tent Order moments before the heretic [[Fleuf Naze]] embarked on a suicidal quest to the center of a black hole. With the next leader being unclear, the Jawas were able to swing the public opinion and voting in favor of [[Jic Uiji]]. As the newly chosen tent leader, Jic Uiji took control of all tent order temples, churches, religious artifacts, and other assets before declaring that the group was reforming to an entirely different belief system. This belief system being the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]], a religion that had existed on [[Tatooine]] among the Jawas but had been struggling for intergalactic prominence. While being a secular organization, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises defended this move stating that it was neccesary for their independence and profits that the business and its people were not subject to any human religious authority.<br />
<br />
===Battle of Nimban===<br />
[[File:Jawameridianbattle.png|right]]<br />
:''Main article: [[Battle of Nimban]]''<br />
The '''Battle of Nimban''' also know as '''"Bopom Kova Upezzo M’tuske"''' among the Jawas was a major operation that saw the group shift increasingly militant as well as resulting in a number of alliances. After the Jawa Offworld Enterprises entered into an agreement with the '''ZooKeeper Alliance''' to provide assistance for their scientific research endeavors groups of Jawa fighter wings and research teams were seen increasingly flying alongside ZooKeeper vessels. This was most prominent in the Nimban system, an outer rim system where the ZooKeeper Alliance was conducting much of their research. However, the rival scientific organization the '''DNA Bashers''' had also been increasingly moving their own military presence into the system in direct opposition to the ZooKeeper Alliance. After several weeks of growing tensions, things escalated into an all out battle between these two major scientific organizations as well as their allied forces.<br />
<br />
Rather than directly focusing on directly attacking enemy forces the Jawa crews quickly organized into a number of different salvaging crews. These salvaging crews focused on the recovery and extraction of key tactical assets from the battlefield, such as preserving the lives of the ZooKeeper Alliance research crews and their research equipment. After several days of operating, with many Jawas going sleepless nights thanks to modern stimulant technology, things escalated further with the DNA Bashers revealing a super weapon that they had been developing in the system. This super weapon was a duo Battle-class Meridian Frigate, a beast of a ship which packed the punch of a battle moon while moving about as fast. As a part of a joint attack with assistance indirectly from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] as well as the newly found friends in [[Chir`dorna Manufacturing]], an elite Jawa salvaging team led by [[Jic Uiji]] managed to evade the volleys of blaster fire and board one of the craft. After fighting their way to the bridge the Jawas managed to take control of the craft and to pull it out of the battle. However, it had sustained serious damage to nearly every system and it has not yet even closely returned to its full operational capacity. Not having the original schematics the Jawa repair teams were only able to return the ship to its original state as operating as a Meridian-class Frigate. Becoming the unofficial flagship of the JOE fleet, this ship has become known as the "Mary Dean" in honor of the nickname given to it by [[St'eve]], a Jawa fighter pilot who died at the Battle of Nimban.<br />
<br />
===Sasan===<br />
[[File:Jawacouncil.png|left]]<br />
<br />
After war was declared on Jawa Offworld Enterprises by the [[Galactic Empire]], and worst of all trade sanctions, the Jawa collective was drawn into conflict with the Empire. Initially this resulted in a number of minor skirmishes with no major impact to either side; however, as hostilities grew the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were increasingly looking for ways to profit from this war until peace could be made. As such, when rebellion broke out in the Corellian sector the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were some of the first on the scene. Making use of the shadow trade routes created in order to dodge imperial trade sanctions as well as their expertise in unusual operations the Jawas managed to expertly operate around hostile forces and and ensure that planetary defenses were created on rebelling planets in order to repel the coming imperial fleets and legions. Many of these operations were focused on the securing of the planet [[Sasan]] in the [[New Plympto (System)|New Plympto]] system, with the planet's scorching temperatures allowing Jawas to work far longer hours and more effectively than the Corellians trying the same. Working in cooperation with a number of pro-Corellian independence groups Jawa Offworld Enterprises was able to secure [[Sasan]] as well as several other nearby rebelling planets from invasion.<br />
<br />
With there being relatively minimal local population on Sasan, with most of the planetary population evacuating to the safer and more hospitable planet of [[New Plympto (Planet)|New Plympto]], the Jawa Offworld Enterprises took control of the planetary governance with permission of the alliance for Corellian independence. The Corellian people were notably sympathetic to the plight of Jawas around the galaxy and it was deemed best for the security of the planet and system if it was inhabited by a race which could better withstand the hot climate. Within days of this announcement, laws lowering the the sales and income taxes were put into effect. <br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />

|person = [[Ini Kedi]] speaking after the liberation of Tatooine.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Following the fall of the [[New Republic]] and the occupation of [[Tatooine]] by the [[Galactic Empire]], JOE deployed a large number of Jawas back to the planet from offworld. These Jawa's were tasked with ensuring that Jawa trade to and from Tatooine would continue despite the circumstances. These initial smuggling operations quickly escalated with the Jawa group deciding to devote significant resources to effectively creating a shadow government on the planet, filling the void left by the largely ineffective imperial appointees. Through the assistance of the shadowy robed figures of the [[Jawa Liberation Front]] as well as the pressure placed on the [[Galactic Empire]] throughout the [[Arkanis]] sector by [[The Resistance]] the imperial forces eventually pulled out entirely, leaving the Jawas free to seize power in the vacuum and take control of the planet and its defense installations.<br />
<br />
==Structure==<br />
<br />
The structure of JOE is largely divided into two separate parts, typically referred to as JOE Businesses and JOE Command. JOE Businesses make up the bulk of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, and covers the many different individual Jawa enterprises which have been invested in and assisted by JOE. On the other hand, JOE command is the umbrella organization that ensures the prosperity of the JOE businesses as well as handling the coordination for Jawa efforts on larger operations. However, there is often a large degree of overlap between the two sections and individual Jawas often work in both JOE Command and specific JOE Businesses.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has repeatedly stated that it is their intention to trade freely with every sentient in the galaxy regardless of their political affiliation or location. However, due to a number of high profile diplomatic incidents as well as translation errors by faulty protocol droids the group of Jawas have found themselves navigating often turbulous diplomatic environments. There have been many incidents of this sort which never transpired into anything larger, most notable of which was a threat of war and trade sanctions from a member of the [[Galactic Alliance]] during the [[Battle of Nimban]] as well as an incident with a separate government over the question of droid theft. However, not all diplomatic incidents managed to be quickly resolved. The [[Galactic Empire]] famously declared war on JOE and placed trade sanctions against them only days after the founding of the group, likely a result of JOE being vehemently pro Jawa and alien rights as well as the history of [[Jic Uiji]] as an enemy of the empire. <br />
<br />
===Politics of Tatooine===<br />
<br />
While effectively in a position of governance, the Jawa corporation has little interest in the day to day legalities which are normally entailed in that position. Instead JOE focuses primarily on controlling the economic policies of the planet as a whole and on creating an environment that is ultimately better for Jawa business. Matters such as what constitutes a crime, construction of social projects, and enforcement of laws is typically handled by local governance which varies widely based on the planetary area.<br />
<br />
==Organizations==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has a large number of Jawa organizations that it is affiliated with. The exact relationship between each of them and Jawa Offworld Enterprises as a whole will vary.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
:''Main article: [[Jawa Industrial Magi]]''<br />
<br />
Born out of the shamans, wise men, and religions of Tatooine are the Jawa Industrial Magi. Despite parts of this religion dating back as far as Jawa records go, this incarcenation is much more recent. With a focus on taking ancient traditions into the future through technology and industry, the Jawa Industrial Magi were founded. Practitioners of this religion vary greatly in beliefs, with the many existing conflicting records of the teaching of various Gods and prophets leading to greatly differing beliefs. <br />
<br />
Due to worries over conversion of Jawas, typically done by members of [[Alissma]] or [[Zhellic Ecclesiarchy]] by restricting business with those who followed other religions, [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] pushed to ensure that a religious institute would exist on the galactic scale for the Jawa people. The Magi provide support Jawas to follow their religion wherever they may be as well as handling many of the more charitable operations JOE has.<br />
<br />
===Twin Suns Trading===<br />
<br />
Twin Suns Trading opened for business on year 21 day 76 after savvy businesjawa Zu Icaz traded a droid to the failing owners and set to turn the business around from scrap to splendor as is the Jawa way. Bringing trade to the outer rim and beyond, we look to serve the galaxy with unsurpassed Jawa quality goods. All sentients, especially Jawas, should have access to safe markets and affordable transportation through our Starports for conducting their business Offworld.<br />
<br />
One of the more traditional "businesses" under the JOE umbrella TST primarily seeks to develop trading infrastructure for sentients across the galaxy. <br />
<br />
===Sarlacc Integrated Design===<br />
<br />
A business ran by [[Kolomon Seph]], the Sarlacc Pit seeks to customize what is often humancentric designed items and make them into something which is better functioning for the unique situations in the galaxy. This often includes specialized equipment for the [[Jawa]] people, with the Sarlacc Pit being responsible for much of the research into Jawa armor, weapon, tool, and ship design. This would eventually reform into the much larger business known as [[Sarlacc Integrated Design]] which is presently led by [[Rava Fejec]] and is mostly based on the moon of [[Chenini]], one of the three moons of [[Tatooine]].<br />
<br />
===Jawa Enforcement & Forensics Force===<br />
<br />
A recently formed arm of JOE, JEFF serves to organize policing efforts in the [[Tatoo]] system and to track down criminals who pose a threat to the Jawa way of life.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Advanced Resource Exploitation Directorate (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
The mining arm of JOE, JARED played a key role in establishing successful Jawa industry on Tatooine. Ran by [[Wizz Eeeklee]] it mined luxurious minerals such as Duracrete and Ryll. Eventually JARED would unceremoniously dissolve after the dirt haulers in several colonies unionized and lead a large strike, eventually seizing JARED's headquarters and forcing the business into bankruptcy. Attempts to reclaim JARED's headquarters have been largely unsuccessful, with the dirt haulers union having held out against a siege since late Y21 with no signs of stopping. The union strikers are rumored to have used their mining equipment to construct an elaborate series of tunnels to smuggle food and items in and out of the headquarters.<br />
<br />
===Maker's Offworld Medical===<br />
<br />
A joint business partnership with the [[Gordian Reach Authority]], [[Maker's Offworld Medical]] is a medical operation with a focus on taking the often human focused field of medicine and adapting it for Jawa needs. <br />
<br />
===Xenoarchaeological Institute (Defunct)===<br />
<br />
A brief lived Jawa takeover, XI was primarily used to investigate ruins related to the [[Jawa]] people. Due to it being forbidden for non-Jawa to view the sacred remains of any Jawa it was important for the archaeological institute to be overseen by [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] during this time. It was eventually disbanded due to the Jawas running out of historical sites that were easy to find.<br />
<br />

'''Jawa Offworld Enterprises''' is a megacorporation which primarily profits through the investment in and creation of [[Jawa]] business ventures. Despite only recently having been created the business quickly rose to prominence in the galaxy, being at the center of a number of galactic events. This has been largely attributed by the group to the natural skill at conducting business possessed by the [[Jawa]] people. Ironically, the group of "offworld" Jawas has had considerable activity focused on their homeworld of [[Tatooine]], after assuming control of the planet in mid [[Year 21]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Origins===<br />
<br />
The origins of the Jawa Offworld Enterprises traces back to a number of different movements related to sentient rights of Jawa's and other short of stature species. Starting off with the likes of legendary Jawas [[Het Patchateeka]], [[Uli-ah Gafsa]], [[Heek Jikjawa]], and [[Tik Tak]] a number of pro-Jawa initiatives were attempted with the goal of assisting Jawas who left behind their homeland of [[Tatooine]]. However, due to a number of high profile legal cases, murders, and other disappearances all of these Jawas faded from the public eye almost entirely by around Y18. This led to the formation of two different groups which sought to advance the Jawa cause, the '''Jawa Society''' in Y18 as well as the '''League of Extraordinary Small Sentients''' in Y19, otherwise known as '''LESS'''. It was from these two groups and several unfortunate incidents that [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] managed to achieve the necessary capital as well as enough Jawa employees to launch their first business ventures.<br />
<br />
====Jawa Society====<br />
<br />
The Jawa Society was a grouping of Jawas of intergalactic prominence with the goal of providing community and assistance for Jawas. Formed by Jawas [[Jic Uiji]], [[Garik Loren]], [[Greyson Abrams]], [[Eugene Delmarco]], and [[Christine Apotheosis]] in early Y18 the group successfully launched a number of pro-Jawa initiatives like providing safe sandcrawler housing for Jawas around the galaxy. Sadly, after the death of [[Garik Loren]] after a politically motivated murder, the departure of [[Christine Apotheosis]], and increasing rumors of [[Greyson Abrams]] having plans of eugenics for the Jawa race the Jawa Society as a whole was in an increasingly weakened state and one which no longer had support across the galactic political spectrum. This led to a large amount of the pro-Jawa operations being purely done by [[Jic Uiji]], who was at the time the Governor of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] overseeing the [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] rule of the planet. As such most of the Jawa initiatives were in the form of supporting Jawa immigration to the mostly desert planet of [[Lirra (planet)|Lirra]] and the success of Jawas on the planet. After [[Jic Uiji]] was crippled by unidentified assailants during a routine "trip" to the galactic core, his influence in the pirate collective quickly diminished and he was forced into early retirement by his crew from both his position as a captain and as governor. This led to an effective ceasing of many pro-Jawa initiatives in [[Eidola Pirates|Eidolon]] territory.<br />
<br />
====League of Extraordinary Small Sentients====<br />
<br />
The League of Extraordinary Small Sentients was focused not just on the success of Jawas, but rather all sentient species that were deemed "small". However, in practice, this effectively meant [[Chadra-Fan]], [[Ewok]], and [[Jawa]] sentients were assisted. This was due in no small part to the main 4 members of LESS, [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], [[Ini Kedi]], and [[Kolomon Seph]]. After briefly existing purely as a sentient rights group most of the members reformed into a recycling corporation known at the time as [[Raas-Moretti Industries]] in partnership with [[Moretti'ameli'arose]], who was otherwise known as [[Amelia Kolczynski]]. This group successfully operated for a number of months in no small part due to the incredible business skill of its Jawa members; however, things did not last. After [[Taranjeek O`Cuinn]], who was not a member of the group but allied with it under the [[Galactica Group]], along with [[Chrii`kkt Raas]], co-leader of the organization, plotted and succesfully carried out the murder of [[Moretti'ameli'arose]] due to claimed "Overreach by the tall people into business operations" the business effectively ceased to exist. This move did not instill confidence in the employees of the organization that they would survive much longer if they remained, and within a month every major employee, largely the Jawa duo [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] had left for some reason. <br />
<br />
====Formation====<br />
<br />
With [[Jic Uiji]] from the Jawa Society along with [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] from LESS all recently disenfranchised for some reason it was a seemingly perfect time for events to transpire. With most of them having worked together before, it was no surprise that they felt that they as a group had the experience to start a new business venture. After meeting in what is rumored to be a Jawa only diner in the northeast rim the group sat down and after hours of negotiations formed the creation contracts of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, an organization ran by Jawas and for Jawas so that their people could prosper. Of course, the contracts included a number of clauses so that they could prosper extensively themselves. Within hours of signing the contracts, the trio went public with their announcement of the formation on Year 19 Day 362.<br />
<br />
===Deep Space===<br />
<br />
Looking to establish some form of base out of which to operate and live, the Jawas spent several weeks debating where Jawas could best settle off of [[Tatooine]]. Eventually it was determined that no matter where they went they would be subject to the rule of those who are not Jawas, and that was unacceptable to them. As such, the group went out into the great cold unknowns and established an area in which they could operate. Outside of any legitimate governmental jurisdiction, the group settled among the asteroid fields of the northeastern rim. This deep space location was where almost all JOE trade passed through, largely for tax reasons. This took a significant toll on many of the Jawas, who yearned for the heat of suns on their skin again. As such, many Jawas were motivated to enlist into expeditions for a planet that they could call their own and settle on.<br />
<br />
===Industrial Salvage===<br />
<br />
The groups first major operation was that of the salvaging of an estimated 20% of of the infrastructure of the planet [[Dalisor]], infrastructure that was deemed to be outdated and unsafe to live in. With a salvaging team primarily led by [[Tilba Ugama]], a Jawa who was fresh off of Tatooine, the group managed to to clear out kilotons of building materials. Most of these materials went directly to smaller Jawa businesses operating under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises umbrella, which repurposed everything they could for resale. It was in this period of mass wrecking/salvaging that Jawa Offworld Enterprises briefly spent several months as controlling a majority of the salvaging market, even though after receiving payment the group decided to move into more lucrative industries. This also saw the rise of [[Tilba Ugama]] to prominence in the organization.<br />
<br />
===The New Tent Order to Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />
<br />
After hearing of rumored instability in the [[New Tent Order]], a religious organization which gained surprising prominence, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises decided to capitalize on the situation for the benefit of the Jawa race. Large numbers of Jawas were sent to register as devout believers of the New Tent Order moments before the heretic [[Fleuf Naze]] embarked on a suicidal quest to the center of a black hole. With the next leader being unclear, the Jawas were able to swing the public opinion and voting in favor of [[Jic Uiji]]. As the newly chosen tent leader, Jic Uiji took control of all tent order temples, churches, religious artifacts, and other assets before declaring that the group was reforming to an entirely different belief system. This belief system being the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]], a religion that had existed on [[Tatooine]] among the Jawas but had been struggling for intergalactic prominence. While being a secular organization, the Jawa Offworld Enterprises defended this move stating that it was neccesary for their independence and profits that the business and its people were not subject to any human religious authority.<br />
<br />
===Battle of Nimban===<br />
[[File:Jawameridianbattle.png|right]]<br />
:''Main article: [[Battle of Nimban]]''<br />
The '''Battle of Nimban''' also know as '''"Bopom Kova Upezzo M’tuske"''' among the Jawas was a major operation that saw the group shift increasingly militant as well as resulting in a number of alliances. After the Jawa Offworld Enterprises entered into an agreement with the '''ZooKeeper Alliance''' to provide assistance for their scientific research endeavors groups of Jawa fighter wings and research teams were seen increasingly flying alongside ZooKeeper vessels. This was most prominent in the Nimban system, an outer rim system where the ZooKeeper Alliance was conducting much of their research. However, the rival scientific organization the '''DNA Bashers''' had also been increasingly moving their own military presence into the system in direct opposition to the ZooKeeper Alliance. After several weeks of growing tensions, things escalated into an all out battle between these two major scientific organizations as well as their allied forces.<br />
<br />
Rather than directly focusing on directly attacking enemy forces the Jawa crews quickly organized into a number of different salvaging crews. These salvaging crews focused on the recovery and extraction of key tactical assets from the battlefield, such as preserving the lives of the ZooKeeper Alliance research crews and their research equipment. After several days of operating, with many Jawas going sleepless nights thanks to modern stimulant technology, things escalated further with the DNA Bashers revealing a super weapon that they had been developing in the system. This super weapon was a duo Battle-class Meridian Frigate, a beast of a ship which packed the punch of a battle moon while moving about as fast. As a part of a joint attack with assistance indirectly from the [[Triumvirate Coalition]] as well as the newly found friends in [[Chir`dorna Manufacturing]], an elite Jawa salvaging team led by [[Jic Uiji]] managed to evade the volleys of blaster fire and board one of the craft. After fighting their way to the bridge the Jawas managed to take control of the craft and to pull it out of the battle. However, it had sustained serious damage to nearly every system and it has not yet even closely returned to its full operational capacity. Not having the original schematics the Jawa repair teams were only able to return the ship to its original state as operating as a Meridian-class Frigate. Becoming the unofficial flagship of the JOE fleet, this ship has become known as the "Mary Dean" in honor of the nickname given to it by [[St'eve]], a Jawa fighter pilot who died at the Battle of Nimban.<br />
<br />
===Sasan===<br />
[[File:Jawacouncil.png|left]]<br />
<br />
After war was declared on Jawa Offworld Enterprises by the [[Galactic Empire]], and worst of all trade sanctions, the Jawa collective was drawn into conflict with the Empire. Initially this resulted in a number of minor skirmishes with no major impact to either side; however, as hostilities grew the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were increasingly looking for ways to profit from this war until peace could be made. As such, when rebellion broke out in the Corellian sector the Jawa Offworld Enterprises were some of the first on the scene. Making use of the shadow trade routes created in order to dodge imperial trade sanctions as well as their expertise in unusual operations the Jawas managed to expertly operate around hostile forces and and ensure that planetary defenses were created on rebelling planets in order to repel the coming imperial fleets and legions. Many of these operations were focused on the securing of the planet [[Sasan]] in the [[New Plympto (System)|New Plympto]] system, with the planet's scorching temperatures allowing Jawas to work far longer hours and more effectively than the Corellians trying the same. Working in cooperation with a number of pro-Corellian independence groups Jawa Offworld Enterprises was able to secure [[Sasan]] as well as several other nearby rebelling planets from invasion.<br />
<br />
With there being relatively minimal local population on Sasan, with most of the planetary population evacuating to the safer and more hospitable planet of [[New Plympto (Planet)|New Plympto]], the Jawa Offworld Enterprises took control of the planetary governance with permission of the alliance for Corellian independence. The Corellian people were notably sympathetic to the plight of Jawas around the galaxy and it was deemed best for the security of the planet and system if it was inhabited by a race which could better withstand the hot climate. Within days of this announcement, laws lowering the the sales and income taxes were put into effect. <br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
[[File:Joetrenchant.png|right]]<br />
{{Quote<br />
|quote = For decades, we have struggled, at times openly and at times covertly, against external interference on Tatooine. For eons the planet was open to all, allowing free trade and cultural exchange until galactic governments took advantage of our openness and restricted our way of life, culminating in the exodus of Jawa to look for better prospects. Now, we are the ones that took advantage. The clans once again control our ancestral planet, and we will work tirelessly to bring it back to its former glory free of oppression. <br />
|person = [[Ini Kedi]] speaking after the liberation of Tatooine.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Following the fall of the [[New Republic]] and the occupation of [[Tatooine]] by the [[Galactic Empire]], JOE deployed a large number of Jawas back to the planet from offworld. These Jawa's were tasked with ensuring that Jawa trade to and from Tatooine would continue despite the circumstances. These initial smuggling operations quickly escalated with the Jawa group deciding to devote significant resources to effectively creating a shadow government on the planet, filling the void left by the largely ineffective imperial appointees. Through the assistance of the shadowy robed figures of the [[Jawa Liberation Front]] as well as the pressure placed on the [[Galactic Empire]] throughout the [[Arkanis]] sector by [[The Resistance]] the imperial forces eventually pulled out entirely, leaving the Jawas free to seize power in the vacuum and take control of the planet and its defense installations.<br />
<br />
==Structure==<br />
<br />
The structure of JOE is largely divided into two separate parts, typically referred to as JOE Businesses and JOE Command. JOE Businesses make up the bulk of Jawa Offworld Enterprises, and covers the many different individual Jawa enterprises which have been invested in and assisted by JOE. On the other hand, JOE command is the umbrella organization that ensures the prosperity of the JOE businesses as well as handling the coordination for Jawa efforts on larger operations. However, there is often a large degree of overlap between the two sections and individual Jawas often work in both JOE Command and specific JOE Businesses.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has repeatedly stated that it is their intention to trade freely with every sentient in the galaxy regardless of their political affiliation or location. However, due to a number of high profile diplomatic incidents as well as translation errors by faulty protocol droids the group of Jawas have found themselves navigating often turbulous diplomatic environments. There have been many incidents of this sort which never transpired into anything larger, most notable of which was a threat of war and trade sanctions from a member of the [[Galactic Alliance]] during the [[Battle of Nimban]] as well as an incident with a separate government over the question of droid theft. However, not all diplomatic incidents managed to be quickly resolved. The [[Galactic Empire]] famously declared war on JOE and placed trade sanctions against them only days after the founding of the group, likely a result of JOE being vehemently pro Jawa and alien rights as well as the history of [[Jic Uiji]] as an enemy of the empire. <br />
<br />
===Politics of Tatooine===<br />
<br />
While effectively in a position of governance, the Jawa corporation has little interest in the day to day legalities which are normally entailed in that position. Instead JOE focuses primarily on controlling the economic policies of the planet as a whole and on creating an environment that is ultimately better for Jawa business. Matters such as what constitutes a crime, construction of social projects, and enforcement of laws is typically handled by local governance which varies widely based on the planetary area.<br />
<br />
==Organizations==<br />
<br />
Jawa Offworld Enterprises has a large number of Jawa organizations that it is affiliated with. The exact relationship between each of them and Jawa Offworld Enterprises as a whole will vary.<br />
<br />
===Jawa Industrial Magi===<br />

Due to worries over conversion of Jawas, typically done by members of [[Alissma]] or [[Zhellic Ecclesiarchy]] by restricting business with those who followed other religions, [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] pushed to ensure that a religious institute would exist on the galactic scale for the Jawa people. The Magi provide support Jawas to follow their religion wherever they may be as well as handling many of the more charitable operations JOE has.<br />
<br />
===Twin Suns Trading===<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
====Prophecies====<br />
Jic views himself as having been directly involved in a number of prophesied events. This include the capture of Sasan, the "They shall take the heat of the heart of the big" being interpreted as referencing this lava planet towards the core of the galaxy. Additionally, there were numerous prophecies surrounding the idea of Jawas one day returning to a high status on Tatooine. Despite his interest in these prophecies, Jic is not a prophet or shaman of the Magi faith or held any substantive role in that capacity.<br />
<br />
====Evil Beings====<br />
One of the more unconventional beliefs Jic has is related to a number of ancient Magi texts that reference beings who are sent or possessed by evil deities. This is often cited by Jic as being the ultimate reason for evil in the galaxy and that battles against these evil beings is akin to a proxy battle between the Tinkerer and the God of Unrealized Losses or otherwise. In many cultures these evil beings would be considered as demons or simply as sith.<br />
<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />

| person = Jic Uiji justifying his sins.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />

}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans.

Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew.

From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda".

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jic and is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's unusually succesful body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in many areas such as : seemingly natural proficiency in maintaining electronic systems, heightened senses of smell, the ability to communicate in a mostly nonverbal fashion where required, better than standard vision in dark settings, an immune system capable of resisting many pathogens, and the ability to survive in hot and dry conditions. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa views are rather simply explained, he wants a better place in the galaxy for his people.<br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government or even any group led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization under the guise of force testing. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
Jic has notably been definitively linked to several anti-human groups. Additionally, Jic has previously played major roles in a variety of guerilla operations attempting to weaken the stranglehold of these nefarious governments in the galaxy, often supporting the expansion of more untraditional "Governments" such as the [[Eidola Pirates]] who while flawed in many ways at at least "not overtly genocidal to alien populations".<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities and are given increased ability to watch populations through it. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorians they can. Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations as well as rooting out skilled alien individuals for humanocentric brainwashing. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]]. This is one of the many reasons Jic has supported Jawa sovereignty and has attempted to bring it to a larger scale through places like [[Lirra]], [[Sasan]], and finally [[Tatoo]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />

}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola, [[Syn]]. The Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />

Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola [[Syn]], the Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy.

There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />

===The Jawa Agenda===<br />

}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jicand is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's large body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in most if not all areas. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa <br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government, or even any group, led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorian gift they can use it, Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing, especially at a young age, causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />

<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew.

Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations.<br />

Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jicand is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's large body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in most if not all areas. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa <br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government, or even any group, led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorian gift they can use it, Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing, especially at a young age, causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />

}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola [[Syn]], the Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations.<br />

<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />

Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />

<br />
Jic Uiji is a [[Jawa]] typically known for his frequent involvement in varying schemes for profit and advancement of his own political interests. Highlights of this Jawa's life in chronological order include: the founding of the "Ships for Jawas" initiative, being the first non-Tynnan on the planet [[Tynna]] in this era, becoming the governor of the planet [[Lirra]], being a founding member of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]], leading the strike force which successfully captured the primary target at the [[Battle of Nimban]], overseeing a significant portion of Jawa and non-Jawa activities during the [[Corellian Conflict]] which resulted in the Jawa occupation of Sasan, and being one of the many Jawas who were at [[Tatooine]] after the fall of the republic to restore Jawa operations.<br />
<br />
==Jawa Offworld Enterprises==<br />
<br />
Jic is mostly known for his role in the foundation of as well as in the current operations of [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]]. Due to cited difficulties in the galaxy for Jawas to find success on their own, Jic along with fellow Jawas and business partners [[Ini Kedi]] and [[Kolomon Seph]] decided that for Jawas to truly find success it was important for them to band together. In the years since formation Jic has been involved in numerous activities under the Jawa Offworld Enterprises banner. The specific positions held by Jic, along with most of the other founding Jawas, has shifted wildly in the years since formation. <br />
<br />
==Food==<br />
<br />
Jic is a known connoisseur of food. Rumored to have spent a large part of his childhood learning to be a cook, the Jawa has taken an interest in many foreign foods and methods of food preparation. However, he still has a soft spot for the Tatooine classics.<br />
<br />
===Eggs===<br />
<br />
Jic has been known to frequently indulge in the [[Jawa]] delicacy of eggs, typically referred to as the sweet "sooga". While on Tatooine it was highly rare to get to enjoy this delicacy there was also next to no variety, with it almost always being from a Bantha. Since leaving Tatooine Jic has experimented with different creature eggs in an attempt to find the perfect egg for Jawa consumption. However, this is one of the more expensive pursuits in the galaxy with many eggs being exceedingly rare and difficult to purchase.<br />
<br />
===Hubba Gourds===<br />
<br />
A classic of the Tatooine diet the Hubba Gourd is a vegetable that forms the base of many Jawa dishes. Naturally, Jic, as almost any Jawa would have, has acquired a taste for it and has historically traveled with a large reserve of hubba gourds, preferring to eat them over many human ration packs. However, Jic has been seen experimenting with different methods of cooking the hubbas, including deep frying.<br />
<br />
===Mynock Legs===<br />
<br />
One of the more foreign foods Jic is reportedly a fan of, the humble mynock leg was introduced to Jic at one of the first swap meets he visited. This greasy street food quickly became one of the favorite foods of Jicand is responsible for at least 20% of the Jawa's large body mass. Since his discovery of it, Jic has invested heavily in the supplies to cook his own fried mynock legs and briefly owned a corporation that produced and sold them. Those visiting Jic Uiji at any swap meet will likely notice the remnants of this.<br />
<br />
==Politics==<br />
<br />
===Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic is known for his strong pro-Jawa views. These include the controversial belief that Jawas were the first race in the galaxy as well as the idea that Jawas have superior natural abilities in most if not all areas. However, most of Jic's pro-Jawa <br />
<br />
===Humans===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly stated that humans are intentionally eradicating and enslaving alien, aka non-human, populations. This has made it historically incredibly wary of any government, or even any group, led by a human. Additionally, Jic has repeatedly extended these beliefs from traditionally anti-alien governments such as the Galactic Empire to more "innocent" governments, some of which even describe themselves as multi-racial utopias. These governments are viewed as simply taking more insidious long term measures to eradicate alien populations, such as through covert mass sterilization. However, Jic has also stated that he believes many if not most humans are innocent in these nefarious anti-alien plots, with it being near impossible to prevent the general alien public from being aware of the plot if every human was aware of it.<br />
<br />
===Taxation===<br />
<br />
Taxation is largely viewed as one of the vehicles with which governments can enforce control of the general, alien, populace. Through taxation on specific activities planetary and sector governments take an unreasonable role in the regulation of personal activities. However, it is often clear that Jic is anti-taxation mostly because he does not enjoy paying taxes. Jic has been repeatedly accused of tax avoidance and has notably faked his death to escape the statute of limitations for taxation in at least one system.<br />
<br />
===Anti-Jawa Design===<br />
<br />
The practices of many governments with regards to ensuring Jawa accessibility to government programs, employment, and more has often been cited by Jic as measures designed to restrict the movement of the Jawa populace. These include height limits for certain occupations, taxation, and droid rights laws.<br />
<br />
===Alien Puppet Governments===<br />
<br />
Jic has accused many non-human led governmental entities of being puppets placed in mock leadership positions by their human masters. The exact process by which Jic determines which governments are puppet governments is typically almost entirely based on how pro-human the government is as well as the rates of human population growth in their territory.<br />
<br />
===Force Testing Alien Infertility===<br />
<br />
Jic has repeatedly come out against the practice of mass force testing of sentients, especially by governments that are dominated by human leadership. While this is often done for the claimed purpose of ensuring that if someone has the potential to benefit the galaxy with their midi-chlorian gift they can use it, Jic views it as being done for the almost sole purpose of suppressing alien populations. Precise sources are not available, but the Jawa has repeatedly claimed that the processes for force testing were largely designed for safe testing on humans and human adjacent species. Additionally, he has claimed the process of force testing, especially at a young age, causes infertility in a large number of aliens. <br />
<br />
===Politicization of Justice System Against Jawas===<br />
<br />
Jic has often cited the criminal justice system as being a key tool used by the humans in keeping the Jawa populace suppressed. This belief is mostly fuelled by a number of high profile cases, such as the imprisonment of [[Het Patchateeka]], murder of [[Garik Loren]], and the death of [[Uli-ah Gafsa]].<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
<br />
Jic is a follower of the [[Jawa Industrial Magi]] religion, with specific beliefs that are hardline Jawacentric with strong polytheistic and mystic elements. Some of the more radical of these include the idea that evil deities such as the God of Rust and the God of Unrealized Losses actively interfere with the workings of the galaxy through what is effectively the direct control of often force attuned humans. He is also a firm believer in the prophecies of old, especially those which are known by the Kiizcinloo sect. Jic has even reportedly tried to bring about prophecies early, going out of his way to attempt to fulfill the circumstances that would come before a number of prophesied events.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
Little has been found detailing Jic's life on Tatooine before leaving for the stars; however, the passenger log of a shuttle places Jic as having first left the planet on the very last day of Y17.<br />
<br />
===Swap Meet Trader===<br />
<br />
Jic's start in the galaxy came from one very specific event, the 3rd Uli-ah Gafsa Memorial Swap Meet hosted on Kiffex. Exact details regarding what occurred there are scarce, but it appears that a series of events unfolded that saw Jic coming in with next to nothing and eventually flying away with a freighter owned entirely in his name. However, what is clear is that whatever went down was highly turbulent. Reportedly the Jawa was both robbed by and almost killed by [[Kray Voh]] "The face eater" and Jic was also seen being unceremoniously thrown out of the [[Krieg's Run Racing]] due to supposed race interference. Since then he has been seen at every galactic swap meet since. <br />
<br />
===Pirate Accountant===<br />
<br />
With some ill gotten gains in his pocket and some new enemies, Jic was quickly propelled into piracy. Working with the [[Eidola Pirates]], Jic used his business savvy to assist in better monetizing a number of the "assets" that the pirate government had acquired. Frequenting the [[Y`toub]] system for several months Jic essentially worked as a contractor for the group, working his way up in their trust of his abilities. At his peak, Jic was responsible for a crew of some 100 builders, all alien, and ensuring their cohesion in a number of dangerous building projects on the gas giant [[Kiskua]]. This segment of his life eventually ended after an incident in the jungles of [[Nal Hutta]] where Jic was kidnapped by slavers, who appear to have turned on Jic after some scheme of the Jawa went awry. However, the underworld connections Jic made in this period would often be used by him when attempting to source special goods.<br />
<br />
===Legitimate Businessman===<br />
<br />
Piracy was too high stress, a few weeks after finally getting free Jic cut business ties with the pirates. Heading off again to the stars from Nal Hutta Jic first sought work with [[Kerdos Company]] under [[Dhar`ghul Khrog]]. However, this quickly fell apart due to differences over salvaging practices. Picking up odd jobs along the way, Jic eventually found himself working with [[The Exchange]] almost entirely. Working in exploration and salvage during the [[Tynna]] incident Jic located the mysterious hidden planet of [[Tynanni]] as well as assisting in repelling pirate attackers from the meridian TDF Delta while rescue efforts led by [[Impa Xio]] could assist in field repairs on the ship. Quickly working his way up the ranks, Jic quickly took entire control of [[The Exchange]], even though rumors persisted that [[Impa Xio]] continued to run it from the shadows. After several months of aggressive expansion into exploration and salvage, the more criminally minded in the organization pressured Jic into early retirement after only a few months. Once again starting over, Jic decided that after how much time he spent repairing droids he would likely have some skill repairing them. Almost longing for that kind of simple work where he didn't have to constantly scheme, Jic went to work for [[Cybot Galactica]]. However, after only a few weeks of work in the factory worlds of [[Asher]], Jic grew tired of the slow path to riches. After that, Jic came up with increasingly strange excuses for not being able to work and focused full time on capturing droids on nearby worlds for resale. Using his position in Cybot as a cover, Jic sold approximately 100 stolen droids under the guise of "Specialty crafted cybot droids".<br />
<br />
===Gentlejawa Pirate===<br />
<br />

}}<br />
<br />
Eventually this stolen droid business would see Jic's morals increasingly loosen again. From stealing a droid to stealing a ship, from stealing a ship to stealing the members of the crew. Cutting ties with [[Cybot Galactica|Cybot]] Jic decided to go with what seemed to be a much more profitable allegiance in the [[Eidola Pirates]] after being approached by [[Argon Nightwish]]. After receiving an authorization to clean out the previous administration of [[Lirra]] from the queen of Eidola [[Syn]], the Jawa's first order of piratical business was to assume the position of governor over the planet. Working with a small crew he had met during his previous time in [[Nal Hutta]] the Jawa moved quickly through each opposing leader on the planet before establishing a new government in place. Trying to create a multicultural haven for Jawas, Jic established a loosely democratic anarcho-capitalistic haven funded almost entirely by minor taxes on the spoils gathered by pirate crews. A strange form of pirate democracy, captains of crews based on the planet would be given input into the laws and operations of the planet based on the size of their crew. However, this was more of a stop gap for total anarchy. While not the most combat minded himself, Jic was still often seen on the forefront of pirate activities due to his skills in managing diverse alien crews which often made up pirate outfits as well as a profit driven approach to battle and casualties. <br />
<br />
During this time Jic gained a reputation as a gentlejawa pirate, where others would quickly resort to torture or murder Jic was much more profit minded. There was always a deal to be struck, some alternate which avoided asset depreciation. Prisoners were treated well as punishment was expensive, there simply needed to be just enough pressure for Jic to get what he wanted. This saw Jic leading a number of somewhat prominent strike forces, first on [[Hosnian]] where he succeeded in the capture and ransom of [[Vladimiur Veselov]] and later locally in the Lirra system where Jic brought justice to [[Sab Graf]], a criminal who had gone outside the pirate systems and laws in place. However, all of this swiftly came to an end after a botched boarding operation on a Lancer south of the core, where Jic was crippled by what is rumored to be a Sith Lord. Being a cripple in charge of a government mostly held in place by might, Jic found an early retirement by dropping off his crew for R&R and then fleeing from Lirra with everything he could carry in his ship. Around this time it is rumored that the Jawa was having a change of heart regarding piracy as a whole, with several reporting a drunken Jic lamenting "All those dang kids left behind"; however, this may simply be a convenient attempt to cover up cowardly fleeing the pirate life as being something more honorable.<br />
<br />
===The Jawa Agenda===<br />
<br />
<br />
{{Quote<br />
| quote = We're always going to be overlooked in a crowd of humans, but they won't be able to ignore us when they're in a crowd of Jawas.<br />
| person = Jic Uiji explaining the high level plan of Jawa advancement.<br />
}}<br />
<br />
From roughly this point onwards Jic was almost always publicly seen in relation to what is sometimes referred to as "Jic's Jawa Agenda". With the Jawa clans on Lirra fleeing shortly after Jic's departure the Jawa was most entirely focused on using his skills to move Jawas in the galaxy forward. Exact reasons cited vary, from more Jawas being good for Jic's own side businesses to a dream of Jawas covering the galaxy or even ramblings about how the Gods themselves told him to take the galaxy in the name of the Jawa people. Whatever it was, Jic was no longer a sentient interested as much in alien rights as he was Jawa rights, even when those rights were at the expense of others. <br />
<br />
Eventually this would see Jic meeting with [[Kolomon Seph]] and [[Ini Kedi]] following the murder of their previous employer. In the following hours a plan was hatched for a business. Not just a business that was pro-Jawa or merely ran by Jawas. Rather, a business entirely built by Jawas and for Jawas to ensure profitably for the Jawa people off of [[Tatooine]]. This plan would grow and be altered over the years that followed but it started simply as a salvaging corporation known as [[Jawa Offworld Enterprises]] and ran by [[Ini Kedi]]. Starting off in small scale ship salvage the business would rapidly grow to cover planet wide deconstruction. Following the [[Battle of Nimban]] the group became far more focused on "Active Salvaging" in Jawa terms, which roughly means salvaging something while someone else is trying to kill you. During this time Jic would be seen going from project to project, before eventually settling into the role of overseeing unusual and risky acquisitions, with the background as a pirate and mercenary as well as contacts gathered during those times helping him to source whatever specialty was needed by JOE or by their clients.<br />
<br />
===Tatooine===<br />
<br />
After the Jawa victory on Tatooine, Jic was reportedly quite happy.<br />
