Emil was working a long night at his desk in his apartment at 500 Republica. The news cycle was aflame and he was barely able to keep ahead of it. The Jedi had won a battle at Denon, a battle he himself had not won. The Syndicates had struck and critically wounded Mon Cala. The Hutts had taken...
When Emil Ro was a young man, he frequented establishments for gay beings on Balmorra. The outings had never led to anything but a few flings with men who liked him for the wealth they perceived he had, or to access his connections once he began his meteoric rise in politics. Since becoming the...
Night on Coruscant.
The Office of the Supreme Chancellor had a weight to it now that Emil Ro had not felt when he first claimed it. He returned to the familiar chamber with the wide view of Coruscant's sky lanes and the Jedi Temple after almost forty-eight standard hours of around the clock...
Supreme Chancellor Emil Ro was nested in the depths of the New Republic Senate Building, but his face was broadcasting on an encrypted channel lightyears away on the bridge of the Starhawk III-class battleship Nightbringer. The Nightbringer was one of eight Starhawks in the New Republic’s...
For Immediate Release
The New Republic and the Free Worlds Alliance formally announce a summit to decide the fate of Sector Ranger jurisdiction.

Naboo was perhaps the most beautiful planet in the galaxy. That title might have once belonged to Alderaan, but Alderaan was no more and Emil was far too young to remember it. He remembered, instead, the waste of his homeworld. Where Naboo had crystalline falls, spilling over cliffsides like...
Supreme Chancellor Emil Ro's official agenda said he was taking calls from constituents in the immediate hour after lunch, but that was a bit of artful misdirection, courtesy of his assistant, Joost. It wasn't like he was slacking off, using the down hour to watch a holodrama or some other...
New Republic Sector, Coruscant
Coruscant was a sad shell of the world it had been not that long ago. Ever since the galaxy collectively decided that the galactic capital didn't necessarily have to be in the galactic center, most of Imperial City had fallen into disrepair. But upon its return...
Emil Ro didn't need a reason to throw a party. Those were the words whispered by his rivals on Balmorra. To them, he was a young fool swept away by tales of his homeworld's former glory, too busy looking back when he should be looking ahead. To them, he was always utterly unserious, appearing in...
