History of the Planet: Nar's Star is a an Orion descended world between the Federation and the Klingon Empire on the Other side from Earth. They have high technology and warp drive ships of their own.
They are culturally and linguistically related to the Botchok Orions, enough so that rivalry occurs. 
Nar's Star is also on the edge of the Kogari Region, and so may be considered one of those powers. The Nar Orions have not signed any treaties with with the Kogari Powers - The classic Kogari powers do not consider Nar's Star a Kogari power.
In the immediate past, an ambitious Nar Orion Noble tried to take over Akbara. The attempt started with vile, under handed treachery - so the Kogari powers consider the Narians with suspicion and disdain.
Nar was until recently a frank pirate base. Being forced into the open means the pirates had to move somewhere else. They now play the Great Game with typical Orion relish

Like many descendants of the Great Orion Empire, Narians consider themselves to be the master race. They use stealth and guile to move among the stars as they will, trading where they will and raiding when the pickings look ripe. Nar's Star became a useful node in the Orionoid underground economy, spreading the influence of the Orion Syndicate even farther.
Nar "The Committee" and the Orion Syndicate powers are contesting for power, now. It is expected to result in a compromise syndicate composed of the surviving members of both parties.
