Existing and thriving for millennia in the ice-covered depths of the Unknown Regions, hidden away from the rest of the known galaxy, the secretive Chiss Ascendancy finally decided to make its existence known around the time of galactic turmoil caused by the fall of the Old Republic and the subsequent rise of the Galactic Empire. Ruled by ancient noble houses, lead by the Grand Syndic, and united by a common interest in the preservation of Chiss culture and the expansion of the Ascendancy's influence, the Chiss people are disciplined, cunning and notoriously wary of outsiders. While exposure to foreign ideology and political intrigue has no doubt upset the delicate balance that maintains the peace between the ruling families, the Ascendancy is determined to prosper in this new era by adapting and assimilating that of value, while maintaining its integrity and its unflinching commitment to the core ideals of the Chiss.
