The "Ghosts of Csilla" are an independent starfighter squadron, formerly associated with the New Republic. After the fall of said Republic in Year 21, they participated in an ill-fated movement to liberate their homeworld Csilla. They have turned to mercenary work in the years since, hoping to gather resources and allies for their eventual return.
Unit History
Formation of Resh Squadron
The unit that would become the "Ghosts of Csilla" began their career as Squadron Resh of the New Republic's 405th Starfighter Wing. The were founded in Year 18, one of several units across the Republic comprised of soldiers and pilots from one race or planet in an effort to build up feelings of inclusion and pride in worlds whose ties to the Republic were growing thin. Csilla was one of those worlds. Its distance geographically and culturally from most of the New Republic made it relationship tenuous at the best of times. The Republic hoped that units like the 405th's Resh Squadron would demonstrate the value the Republic saw in their Chiss members, as well as what Csilla could offer to the Republic. After the pilots' well-publicized graduation from the academy, they were assigned to the Derra's Glory, the Quasar Fire-Class Bulk Cruiser commanded by Commander Kalla Fexive, a respected career officer in the Republic's Navy and a fellow Chiss. After a publicity tour of Csilla and the surrounding region, the Glory and the 405th were deployed to the Callia system to combat the dreaded Zann Consortium pirates that were growing in strength there.
