The Free Worlds Alliance and the New Republic collapsed? That means there are lots of worlds alone out there. The ISC is still around, emerging from the war with the Empire as the victor. The power of the ISC has been proven time and time again.
Seizing the opportunity, the Governor of Opportunity has arranged an open invitational for now-independent worlds that were former FWA/Republic worlds, Senators/Diplomats/.etc that attend could apply and make a case for ISC membership, potentially enjoy the perks/boons/benefits that come that come with being a member of the Systems Consortium.
Of course, membership isn't guaranteed, the ISC reserves the right to reject anyone they don't want in. So ISC governors have been invited to evaluate members who are applying to join, as well as the ISC President (@Sreeya) and the Vice President (@Altaris)
Hugo tried to foster a welcome atmosphere here and in the messages out. Maybe people who started off on the wrong foot with the ISC could be given a second chance? That's possible. Maybe for certain ones, like a certain Khagante, membership is very unlikely.
But for prospective worlds looking to join the ISC and become part of something greater, an open invitational like this won't happen often, so if they want to apply for membership, this would be the best chance to join.
In the grand chambers of Naboo in a building in Theed, with a number of large tables, Hugo would take his seat, followed by his litigator droid. He arrived early, overseeing workers getting things ready. He would take his seat as he would await for others to show up.
OOC: Open to political characters! Also open to non-aligned Senators/Ambassadors of other worlds who would like to apply for ISC membership. ISC politicians as well! Don't miss this chance!
