Clone Wars Campaign: Purity First

Purity First was a xenophobic paramilitary organization I created to give the PCs some non-Separatist, non-Sun Runner opponents. Inspired by the Ku Klux Klan and Robert Jordan's Whitecloaks, Purity First is a human-only organization that is virulently opposed to "aliens." In the campaign, the PCs first encountered Purity First when it was a loose rabble of simple-minded zealots. However, the group secretly received financing and an influx of well-trained adherents due to the machinations of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine and became a force to be reckoned with. After years of civil war, the small planet Mongui was ripe for the taking and occupied by Purity First to serve as the group's galactic headquarters. The organization conscripted a large percentage of the population to serve as its footsoldiers, while organizing its elite forces into battle-hardened phalanxes. After a bloody rebellion led by the PCs (in which three PCs were killed), Purity First was driven off Mongui and its leader, the Grand Inquisitor, was revealed to have secretly been a droid (the idea being that Palpatine wanted a pawn he could easily control). Below are the stats for some members of the group (defences are calculated using our House Rules, otherwise simply add 10 to each).
