The Agency

The Agency is an upcoming Star Wars fanfiction, set in the same universe as SWRP and The Royal Saga. It is a Police Dramady, and will focus on the Mandalore Defense Agency, specifically two of its cadets, Lacey Michelle and Dawn Sturm, though the likes of Zico Purah and Ly Shoi will also be main characters. An pilot chapter or "Episode", as the series' installments will be called, was debuted on December 21, 2020.

Cast

The Agency stars best friends Lacey Michelle and Dawn Sturm, but the supporting cast is full of characters, most of which are from SWRP.

Lacey Michelle

Lacey is a witty Mandalorian cadet, recently employed by the MDA. Inspired by Shawn Spencer, from the series' inspiration, Psych, she's fun loving and wisecracking. Her best friend is Dawn Sturm, and she reverts to comedy to help cope with difficult challenges, and to mask her fear and uncertainty.

She, is named after the two rock singers, Lacey Sturm and Dawn Michelle, both of which Satoshi enjoys.

Dawn Sturm

Dawn's an uptight Mandalorian cadet, and best friend to Lacey. She, unlike most of the series' recurring characters, is a Marilan. Inspired by Burton Guster from Psych, she constantly feels the need to make up for Lacey's tongue-in-cheek attitude.

Like Lacey, she's named for Lacey Sturm and Dawn Michelle.

Zico Purah

Zico's one of the main characters of the Royal Saga, and one of EnsignPlacidBraptor's flagship characters. Originally created for SWRP, Zico's an skillful warrior, having been trained in the ways of the Force by Hirroshi Satori and his New Republic faction, then as a cadet in the MDA under the guidance of Frank Rogers. He served in the NME War before being unwillingly pulled into the Royal Wars.

Warriors, the upcoming finale to the Royal Saga, will setup his and Ly's role in the story.

Emily "Ly" Shoi

Ly Shoi, like Zico, was introduced during SWRP, but originally as a love interest for Zico. That carried over into Hunters, where she too got sucked into the endeavors of the Royal Jedi. However, Survivors paints her in a different light, having her more frustrated by her lack of aptitude in the situations of the story. In Warriors, MJ plans to dive in even further, offering closure for her and Zico's potential romantic relationship, and setting up her arc for The Agency.

'''Conception ''' Satoshi had been planning stories about the MDA since at least late 2019, being inspired by The Mandalorian. A story about Clan Shoi and The White Shadow Federation was discussed between Satoshi and HighestTangyShark, but the project never went far. Among going over plotpoints for Warriors with MateTrickyLeopard, Satoshi realized the general un-Mandalorian-ness of Lirom Shoi, through the way he raised Ly. Further development happened on and off until Fall 2020, when he began watching Psych, which gave him the inspiration for Lacey and Dawn. Active development began in November 2020, with the Pilot being finished by December 10, and Season 1 in the works. Satoshi plans to have Season 1 finished by February, and Season 2 to begin late 2021.
