### Characters

Ichavi Kanon

The **Phantom Faction**, also known as **Phantom** or **Confederate** **Order** was the remnants of Ichavi Kanon Anoat Defense Fleet and a criminal syndicate with affiliations to the old Galactic Empire and especially the now fallen Confederacy to Restore the Empire. They are one of the main villlains and separatist factions within the galaxy, working by the shadows as a mastermind attempting to ensure the fall of the current galactic powers.

It is ruled by its Absolutist leader, the currently titled Empress Ichavi Kanon, the previous federator of the Confederacy to Restore the Empire, and their main military commander is Admiral Tranan, the name is well know for being associated with the Confederacy and many of his cousins and brothers fought in confederate cells against the Empire.

Once the Phantom Faction eventually returned to the Galaxy, it stood virtually against all odds fighting the entire Galactic Powers in a attempt to bring chaos and destruction to the galaxy to prepare a future invasion, many alliances were made alongside attacks on Outer Rim worlds.

With several remnants of the Empire and veterans of both the Civil War and the reunification wars ranging from young to old. The faction future remains uncertain but one thing is sure, if they are going to fall. They aren't being forgotten.

## Structure

The Phantom Faction keeps still many of the old confederate structure from the reunification wars, however the previous Senate has been reformed into the First Council which is made of high ranking military officers or crew members such as a Chief Engineer, Spymaster or even a Admiral itself. It is essentially a High Command and manages much of the day to day affairs in the life at the Super Star Destroyer.

Hierarchy became something much more important within the Phantom Faction but failure is still something that's given rather leniency, especially due to their limited resources, orders. From the First Council can be questioned and not obeying them for the sake of the mission is something not only allowed but encouraged to a certain degree, however obedience to the Empress is mandatory.

In the highest of the roles sits the Empress, only followed by the Admiral and then the Councillors, from there the ranks get much smaller with the highest being a High Commander, someone who manages a entire sector or batallion of the star destroyer and the lowest being a private or worker.

Every day quotas and tasks are distributed by the Chief Engineer, Admiral, Chief of Logistics and the Overseer which have to be finished or at least done 2/3 of until the day ends, the exceptions such as malfunctions, faulty intel or lack of proper equipment are which are managed by the High Commanders themselves.

Corruption is also something that is not tolerated on the Phantom Faction with a small royal guard holding near executive power to avoid corrupt individuals or those who might betray them with them being arrested before the Empress decides wether they should die or not, generally done in half a hour, by extension surveillance is also frequent within the ranks of the faction.

## History

### Prelude - Confederate Remnants (7 ABY)

At around 7 ABY when Kanon was forced to flee from Bespin to the border of the wild space and the unknown regions, the beginnings of what would be called later on the Phantom Faction was made as massive policy changes were forced within the fleet and drastic measures were taken to ensure their location wasn't found or that nobody escaped, such as the total shutdown of holonet connections within the Faction or making the process of stealing a shuttle or TIE's overly complicated. She had began her search for the mysterious sixth remnant which had escaped Jakku along a month afterwards and adopted temporary bases on quite a few barren planets or systems out of the reach of the Republic or the Empire, she had about enough supplies in each ship for six months but then they were feeding a entire fleet without a constant stream of food or fuel which made Kanon's search nearly impossible.

One of the most notable cases that Kanon had to face around this time was that around the end of the year once peace was achieved between the two nations were mass mutinies in several ships and attempts at coup d'etating Kanon and coming back to the Empire. It is where a good part of the crew in those fleets were wiped out and martial law was officially implemented. Her supplies were dwindling by then and after such mutinies she couldn't exactly send more teams to find supplies.

Eventually however as all hope seemed lost and expectations for starvation to begin in a week, a christmas miracle happened...Kanon was found by a mysterious patrol fleet belonging to the sixth remnant and soon...they would be taken into the unknown regions alongside the First Order. Whereas they would be sent to become one of the new fleets for the mysterious faction...

### The Return (9 ABY)

When Kanon did indeed returned into the galaxy at large under orders of a mysterious protocol, the previously named flagship and pride of the flame, "Kanon" was renamed into the "Phantom" Super Star Destroyer and started wiping out entire small task forces or patrol fleets with thousands of turbolasers along some quite...impossible modifications such as cloaking or interdictor fields in a operation to sow distrust between the Galactic nations and begin the processes of attempting to make the Republic burn.

One of the very first moves that Kanon made within her was allying with the criminal syndicates known as the Crimson Dawn and the Black Sun in a attempt to forge a new age of crime, alongside this a few proxy companies for the Phantom and a few criminal syndicates were either forged or influenced under the red and black symbol of a ghost. Soon enough a crime and intelligence network would be acquired by Ichavi Kanon as she began the steps of moving further into her plan, crime rates and piracy would go up over the next few years and a few attacks were attempted by the Phantom.

The Phantom Faction featured around this time their first big loss- in a battle over Dantooine a distress signal was sent and sadly a small task force by Admiral Yi would manage to reveal, in a attempt to not lose everyone and ensure that they weren't fully seen, there was a retreat. A few weeks later the Phantom Faction would once again find themselves in a brutal battle over crait which most of the Imperial navy came to fight the Super Star Destroyer...it was a total loss as two Star Destroyers were lost and the Phantom itself was damaged, this made the Faction take a much more careful approach as it came back into hiding to focus on other things.

Within 13 ABY its effects were shown in the galaxy as they started taking a more open approach into things, such as the creation of the Tempest Troopers, a much more stronger variant of the old stormtrooper corps and the reactivation of old droid factories in Geonosis which every week seems to be getting stronger, it is truly a wonder wether all those changes would make the Phantom Faction a actual strong opponent to the governments in the galaxy or just another failed attempt of Kanon to acquire rulership over all the rims...

## Behind the scenes

The Phantom Faction and its flagship got its name because its creator, Franco couldn't find a better idea, on a lack of plans he sought to use the name the Super Star Destroyer "Kanon" was being given- Phantom, for both the face and the being of Kanon's last attempt at domination.
