</div>### **Overview**

The **People's Secessionist Army of The Outer Rim** is a vast collective of different species that report directly under [General Karnus Ra](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/characters-ndi/page/commander-karnus-ra). Unofficially known as **Karnus' Insurgents**, most records refer to them simply as Karnus' Insurgents. The Insurgent's origin and area of strongest influence is Taris- where the organization was founded. Since it's debut however, the Insurgents have been seen all throughout the Outer Rim. As of 982 RSY, Karnus' Insurgents has publically aligned with the Confederacy of Independent Systems; gaining the resources associated with the entity. The PSA now serves as a sub-group within the greater [Separatist Military](https://wiki.unlimitedprojectstudio.com/books/factions-vZw/page/separatist-military).

The People's Secessionist Army are known to utilize sabotage, assassinations, and terror attacks as their staple of fighting style, prefering assymetric warfare over conventional frontlines.

### **The First Attack**

The Insurgents are known for their first attack on Taris in 972 RSY- detonating a Planetary Militia's Armory. The Insurgents claimed responsibility for the attack- stating the use of force against the citizens of the Outer Rim will met with the use of force to repel the authority of the Core Worlds. This claim was broadcast all over the Holonet- along with Karnus' manifesto- proclaiming the People's Secessionist Army of The Outer Rim.

### **The Christophsis Campaign**

Placed under the Command of Count Dooku for the early portions of the Campaign, General Karnus and his Insurgents mostly did sapper and scout work to slow down the oncoming Clone Army; laying mines, scouting Republic positions, and sabotaging Republic power sources. Later on in the Campaign, during the third Battle of Leesis City- Karnus took his Insurgents to partake in assymetric warfare in the Planetary Headquarts for the Republic offensive- Tophen City.

In Tophen, Karnus deployed his men via mined out tunnels, orbital drop pods, and amongst refugee convoys seeking off-world transport. From there, these Insurgents reported Republic positions, laid down detonater mines along reinforcement and supply routes, and captured and executed a series a Republic Clone Trooper sentries.

After the fall of Leesis City- Karnus retreated off-world to Rhen Var to briefly assist High Admiral Pax in dealing with the captured Marshal Commander and Jedi Master Ima Gun-Di. During a Republic incursion to the CIS-held Bravo Base, General Karnus would retreat to his task force in Orbit and accompany the rest of the Reaper's Fleet blockade Numidia Prime.

### **The Numidia Prime Campaign**

No known information exists- however it is hinted that the Secessionist Army is involved in operations.
