USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CHARACTER CREATION
Here are the rules for creating characters for my Star Wars game. This system is designed to work with the new rules system the game is getting, and so has not been used before this point. However, this system has received considerable off-line testing!
Note that the Star Wars RP can only handle so many players. Luckily, with two sides to chose from, the problems can be eased, but I reckon a maximum of about six per side is the practical best- I may be able to stretch that at a pinch; I would prefer excess players are Light Side as they can be given more to do.
There are five stages in character creation.
1. Light Side or Dark Side?
2. Name (harder than you might think)
3. Template- as in what sort of character you are. Light Side and Dark Side get different templates to chose from but based around the same types of people.
4. Assigning stats and skills- a simple process with instructions given by template.
5. Picking your force powers and other tricks.
However, the following rules apply to all characters:
1. Everyone is a Force user, in the Jedi style (though not necessarily ever a Jedi).
2. Everyone forms part of a team- including the Dark Siders (though obviously I mean one Light Side and one Dark Side team!). The problems Dark Siders have WITH teams kinda form part of their plotline. Even Renegades are working with the Jedi, for one reason or another.
3. Everyone has done missions before- even if you want to be fresh from Padawanship, you saw a lot of action during your apprenticeship. No-one in this game is a novice. Dark Siders have had their own experiences- but NONE of you are Sith, this is important.
4. The game is set in the Prequel Trilogy era.
Other than that, when you create a character, feel free to add as much background detail as you like!

1. Light Side or Dark Side?
Think carefully about this. Without wanting to sound too obvious, it is rather fundamental to the play style you get!
The inspiraton for the sides in this game comes more from the films than the EU- though I far from totally reject the EU in this game, my stylistic influence is very much film based. This many mean some small differences between my interpretations of things and yours- but on the whole, I find players accept their roles very happily.
Here are the pros and cons of each side.
Light
Pros:
Official status: Even Renegades get respect as Jedi, and proper Jedi have vast legal powers and authority, Masters especially so. Qui-Gon Jinn is considered a maverick, but even he was given the authority to simply ORDER a settlement to the Naboo problem. George Lucas likens Jedi to Wild West Marshalls- out on the frontier, your word is law.
Teamwork: Jedi are nice guys, and they work well together. You are assured of loyalty from your friends
Support network: You work FOR the Republic. The Republic may be old, corrupt and falling apart at the seams, but many Republicans are good people who have faith in the Jedi and will do what they can to help you.
Heroes: You are heroes... and on the whole, people like to play heroes!
Cons:
Responsibilities: You have great power- and we all know what that means. You are not tyrants. Jedi have a lifetime of training in exercising their power responsibly, and always happily accept that they serve the Republic; they do not run it. Masters, especially, are expected to have a high quality of responsibility and maturity in play.
Restrictions: Whilst Jedi are often sent as Agents into hostile territory- like when Obi-Wan was ordered to go get Jango, or when they turned up en masse to fight a battle on Geonosis- a lot of your work is police work inside the Republic. Whilst you might like the image of the corner-cutting Jedi, do remember you are expected to follow the law yourself, and you can run into considerable trouble if you do not! Republican corruption, therefore, is a big problem for the Jedi, as the laws sometimes protect those you want to stop. Try not to get too angry at this- remember, anger at this is one of the foundations of Anakin's fall...
Morals: In the same theme... remember you are heroes, as stated, and Jedi at that. You are expected to act in a moral way at all times. Note that this does NOT mean refusing to kill if necessary- Jedi are not pacifists; you guys have a job to do and a Dark Sider standing next to you with a Lightsabre is a fair target. But it does mean you must always act in a moral and altruistic way. If you do not, the temptations of the Dark Side may come calling- and I do not operate a revolving door policy in this game. If you go down, you will not come up again.
Dark:
Pros:
Freedom: You are your own people. You answer to no authority that you do not wish at that time, or are being compelled to recognise. You may ignore laws that do not suit you. Basically, you have none of the operational restrictions the Jedi work under.
Self-advancement: Whilst the Jedi can get tangible gains in the course of play... it must be said, it is never anything that tangible. As a Dark Sider, you can work towards TRUE power- get it right, and you might be controlling your own sector of space one day!
Might Makes Right: Uninhibited by morals or other such restrictions, you can bypass 1000 problems the Jedi will get struck on by simply pointing out how little effort it will take you to kill someone. A warning though- this will NEVER be a universal solution, and the game will go to length to explain why there is more than death and threats to successful Dark Side play.
Style: Let's face it, you all love the Darths...
Cons:
Hunted: You are VERY bad people. The Republic hunts you at all turns, and probably half a dozen criminal orgnisations want you also. Your life is a paranoid mess of trying to stay safe as people come after you. Make too much noise, and suddenly a dozen Jedi are breathing down your neck.
Lack of support: The total opposite to the Jedi, Dark Siders tend to have NO-ONE to back them up. Where are you going to repair your ships? To re-arm or re-equip? All these things are done FOR the Jedi... Dark Siders can spend vast amounts of time simply securing these necessities.
Fragile teamwork: Dark Siders are bound together by bonds of necessity, respect, tradition or fear. But these bonds are weaker than true friendship. We all know what tends to happen with Dark Siders- they turn on each other. Come a crisis, it is every man for himself.
Need for allies: Dark Siders tend to have no friends. But the thing is, you NEED friends! Without them, you are just dangerous thugs and will never be anything. If you want power, you need to make the right deals. Trouble is, who is ever going to deal with paranoid psychos like you? Jedi have allies all around if they want them- Dark Siders have to work for it.

2. Name
There is plenty of inspiration for Star Wars names around, and many are quite weird, but for the sake of other players try not to make them too obscure! And remember, Star Wars happily uses mundane first names like Luke or Ben. Surnames- like Skywalker and Darklighter- often have a mythological feel to them.

3. Template
There are a wide variety of these to chose from. They dictate what your character is and is not good at.
They are split into six categories- three Light Side, three Dark Side.
These categories are:
1. Jedi Knights- the Republican Champions of the Light Side
2. Jedi Renegades- champions still, but those who disagree with the Council and do not follow the Code.
3. Jedi Masters- the famed and feted leaders of the Jedi
4. Dark Jedi- those who were once Jedi, but fell to the Dark Side
5. Marauders- Dark Side followers who were never Jedi- found in the Outer Rim and trained wholly by other Dark Siders
6. Nemeses- The very rare and reclusive Dark Side Masters.
-
Whilst each category has several templates, many of them are very similar, being the same type of template duplicated for the different categories. For example, there is a young Swordsman type for the Jedi, and his template is duplicated for a Renegade, Dark Jedi and Marauder version.
There are five of these basic templates, which I simply call A, B, C, D and E.
A is a veteran all-rounder. An A template has a very wide variety of skills, is good with a lightsabre, can often pilot a ship and/or fire a gun, knows Martial arts, and is also competent with the Force. The A template is therefore very powerful, and probably the best to go for if you are unsure. The only direct problem is that the more specialised templates may be weaker in general, but are better at doing what they do, which can make an A template feel like second best at everything. Also, it is harder to advance with experience if you are an A template. Nonetheless, it remains my favourite.
B is also a veteran, but where A is a very dynamic, go-getting template, B is more sedate and thoughtful, better with the Force, less good with a lightsabre, but still a good all-rounder.
C is a young, cocksure warrior, about 19 or 20, with a great talent with the blade. Already the equal of an A template at duelling, the C is in fact better at fighting in a pitched battle than any other template (duelling is different, as noted he is the A's equal, not superior, there). C is powerful in a fight but impatient with the Force, and lacking socially.
D is an inexperienced but talented template with a great gift for acrobatics and athletic manoeuvres, which can give him a great edge. He is the most physically fit of all templates. The D template is also well-versed in all forms of combat, though for direct lightsabre fighting, A and C beats him.
E is the basic Master template. Because a Mace Windu template would be drastically overpowered, the Master template assumes a retired, out-of-practice Master, like Obi-Wan in A New Hope. This Master is aged, and physically more frail than his ultra-fit comrades- nonetheless, the Master commands great power and skill.
There are also special temapltes for many of the categories that do not fit into the types given above. Here is a summary of the available templates, followed by details:
Jedi Knights
Adventurer (A)
Scholar (B)
Swordsman (C)
Athlete (D)
Acolyte (Special)
Jedi Renegades
Ronin (A)
Wanderer (B)

Solitaire (E)
Nemeses
Bane (E)
Overlord (Special)

Here are the templates in detail. For each, there is a brief description, a mood setting quote, the starting stat and skill allocations, and the number of powers and/or tricks the template has- any speical abilities are also listed.
------
JEDI KNIGHTS
These are the standard templates and everything else is judged relative to them.
Jedi, over time, cannot directly acquire power but can acquire wisdom, understanding, rank in the order, and the right to train others.
-----
Adventurer (Type A)
For over a thousand generations the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the Old Republic
The Adventurer is a veteran Jedi Agent, talented and capable, who has learned much in his time- both Jedi and more mundane skills. He balances a desire for Adventure and excitement (much to Yoda's displeasure) with a cool head and acquired wisdom. He is one of the Council's most valuable resources.

Variant 2- Ace. Lose Gun Skill. Chose a total of 6 Pilot Tricks.
-
Scholar (Type B)
A Jedi must have the deepest commitment, the most serious mind
The Scholar is experienced like the Adventurer, but more cautious, more thoughtful. He lacks the broad range of skills of the Adventurer, and his edge with the blade, but is better with the Force, and makes a good negotiator and diplomat- and is still a dangerous opponent.

-
Swordsman (Type C)
We’re Keepers of the Peace. Not soldiers.
The Swordsman is not long a Knight, young, confident, talented, and totally impatient. He has a great pride in his precocious sabre skills, and this pride may be a problem, but his effectiveness on the battlefield cannot be denied. His force skills are not well developed, and he has spent more time practicing with his sabre than learning about the Galaxy. He can fight up close with great skill with any weapon- but he disdains ranged combat as clumsy and random.

Special Rules: Warrior. Warriors gets +1 to initiative, and can learn the top level in three Blade Tricks rather than two.
-
Athlete (Type D)
Impressive… most impressive…
The Athlete is a young, inexperience Jedi with pride in his body in the same way the Swordsman has pride in his blade. Whilst this makes the Swordsman more dangerous literally speaking, the Athlete is more aware of his limitations and has worked harder in overcoming them, and has made far more progress with the Force.

Gun Tricks: 4
Special Rules: Acrobat. Acrobats get +1 to all dodge ratings, and +2 on all non-aggressive athletic moves.
-
Acolyte (Special)
The Force is strong in my family
The Acolyte is a Jedi who has a phenomenal talent with the Force, and has spent his whole life in the Temple learning how to make best use of his gift. He is already beyond the power of many Masters- but he knows nothing at all of the Galaxy and is inadequate at the physical part of the job. The Acolyte is the single most powerful template with the Force- but requires much intelligence and effort to play, lest he be cut down.

The Acolyte may not buy the merits ‘Ties’ or ‘Contacts’ in relation to any non-Republican organisation

JEDI RENEGADES
Renegades, as a whole, have a skill set that represents a life spent more in the harsh realities of the Galaxy than training in peace on Coruscant or doing diplomatic missions. They tend to have more fighting tricks but less force powers; they get an extra merit but a reaction penalty when dealing with Jedi.
There is always an idea that Renegades are flawed- it is normally some problem in their mentality that has led to such defiance. However, it is not impossible to find a 'niche' in being a renegade where there is much wisdom- as Qui-Gon did. Such a path is not easy to follow and achieve, though.
-----
Ronin (Type A)
Without the approval of the Council if I must
Like the Adventurer, the Ronin is an experienced veteran, but his lust for adventure is not tempered. Finding the Council stuffy, static and restrictive, he has started to wander, putting wrongs right on his own initiative- still following the Jedi ethic.

Wanderer (Type B)
You must do what you feel is right, of course
Thoughtful and cautious like the Scholar, the Wanderer simply feels incomplete, and is certain that he can only find the wisdom he seeks by travelling the Galaxy and seeing where the Force leads him.

-
Freelancer (Type C)
He has to choose his own path. No-one else can choose it for him
Proud like the Swordsman, the Freelancer simply has no interest in the Jedi way, and took his leave of the Council to pursue the life of a mercenary, accepting calls to fight in small wars and other conflicts- but, still being a Jedi at heart, only for altruistic causes, and often only asking enough to pay his way and maintain his equipment. Unlike the Swordsman, the Freelancer does not disdain ranged combat.

-
Vigilante (Type D)
Jedi? Whatever it is, I didn’t do it!
Impressivley fit and strong like the Athlete, the Vigilante grew tired of the restrictions placed on the Jedi, and left the Council in order to start anonymously meting out his own brand of rather more direct justice, for which his bulk proves very useful. He strives to not let his desire for justice turn to a desire to punish, which could lead to the Dark Side.

DARK JEDI
Those once of the Jedi Order are very similar to their old comrades- one or two skills are altered, and their Force stats- as always for the Dark Side- are different, but that is pretty much it.
Dark Siders are all focussed on gaining power over time. Having seen the Republic work from the inside, Dark Jedi tend to want to take over power from within.
-----
Fallen (Type A)
Quicker. Easier. More Seductive
Another veteran Agent, it is hard to tell why such a figure would fall to the Dark Side. Likely disillusioned by years of working for a corrupt Republic, forming an emotional attachment is still the most likely reason for a sensible Jedi to fall- for it is so easily done. Regardless, the Fallen is now given entirely to evil.

-
Cultist (Type B)
As you can see, my Jedi powers are far beyond yours. Now back down
The more thoughtful Jedi is more likely to be laid low by his own intellect. The Cultist started out by learning more about the Dark Side, but an undetected flaw in his personality meant that curiosity turned to investigation, turned to regard and respect and soon he was championing all that he once fought. The Cultist makes a powerful intellectual addition to the Dark Side.

-
Rogue (Type D)
Whatever it was, it was well-trained in the Jedi Arts
With the same physique as the Athlete, the Rogue, after observing the scum of the Republic in operation, always had it in mind that he could probably better himself more on the wrong side of the law than the right- and few can deny that in evil form he makes a suitably impressive criminal figure.

Revenant (Special)
Twisted and Evil
The Revenant was once a great Jedi... but was struck down in the course of his duty. But somehow, he survived his fatal wounds, and lived on. But only the selfishness of the Dark Side can keep someone alive beyond their time, and the Revenant, when he returned, was nothing like his former self... the Revenant is crippled, but the power of the fury of his Force, the sheer potence of his hatred, is terrifying to behold...

MARAUDERS
Dark Siders who were never Jedi tend to have more 'petty' goals and views. This is not a criticism as such, it is just they tend to see power in very black and white terms. Force latents tend to have spent their early lives shunned by others around them, so all Marauders have difficulties with social situations. However, like Renegades, they have spent more of their life in the Galaxy, and so get a relevant skill set and an extra merit.
Like Dark Jedi, Marauders seek to gain power, but they would prefer to see the Republic destroyed from without.
-----
Executor (Type A)
Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate… leads to suffering…
The Executor (as in a person who causes 'things' to happen, in a James Bond kind of sense) was a fine and talented force latent when found and trained, who quickly learned to let his emotions guide him and soon found the shortcut to power. Like all A types, he is an accomplished and experienced being.

-
Heretic (Type B)
You will find it is you who are mistaken. About a great… many… things...
The Heretic was an intellectual student and was interested in the sheer power the Force could give you. Having never heard, or barely heard, the Jedi ideas on the nature of the Force, the Heretic has his own ideas on the meaning of things, and sees himself leading a new religion- with him at its head.

Brigand (Type D)
His powers have made him… arrogant
After training, the Brigand became interested in the criminal side of things, like the Rogue. Not having seen the workings of such things from the outside, the Brigand tends to be more directly involved in street level things- mugging, extortion, serious violence... still, he senses there is more for him in the Galaxy than that.

Orphan (Special)
If he had been born in the Republic he would have been identified quickly
'Orphan' is not a reference to parentage. The Orphan is a powerful force potential- but born far too far outside the Republic to have been identified as such. So powerful was his talent that the Orphan actually began to control and direct his powers without training- 'Orphan' therefore is a term for someone who learned the Force without a Master. Sadly, with no guidance, the Orphan learned his powers through his emotions, and long ago was irrevocably on the Dark Side... leading an unhappy life of seclusion. When found by other Dark Siders, he was more than happy to accept companions- and by simply encouraging his talent, the others find a powerful ally! The Orphan lacks greatly in many skills and with the sabre, but he is a canny survivor and more powerful in the Force than most Jedi...

MASTERS
From the original game design onwards, a Master template was wanted in the game but has always proved difficult. Even with the limitations of these templates being Masters who are returned, past their prime, with lapsed powers and reduced physical capacity, the 'basic' Master remains a powerful template indeed. The main limitation on Masters- except that I only accept so many in a game anyway- is the difficulty in playing one. I have to carefully consider requests to play Masters, because a very high standard of play is expected from them; they have to be mature, wise, responsible and respectable- and ready to make hard decisions in play under pressure. Masters are of high rank, like senior military officers or police commissioners, and they have to play to that role.
Long term play with a Master can yield very great responsibilites within the Order- and even a place on the Council, unless this would appear to greatly contradict the plot of the films.
-----
Venerable Master (Type E)
The Force will be with you. Always
The Venerable Master is the default Master template- a retired Jedi of great skill and potency, maybe spending his time meditating, maybe relaxing, but now suddenly returned to active duty- due to great need, or a sudden instinct that he was required- Masters have learned to trust such instincts implicity. The Venerable Master is not what he was- but only a fool would think him weak.

Solitaire (Type E)
If you would just follow the Code you would be on the Council
The Solitaire is an unusual example- a Master who does not follow the Code. Unlike a normal Renegade, it is harder to write this off as folly- the Solitaire deserves his title of Master, conferred by the Council itself. They are impulsive and defiant, yet also very wise, and the Council has use of them- even as trainers for Padawans. Like the Venerable Master, the Solitaire is considered to have retired (as it were) and recently returned to 'duty'.

NEMESES
Long ago, there was a time when the Sith Lords were the greatest threat the Galaxy faced. It was the Sith Lords that made the Sith more than just a babble of dangerous thugs; their planning, schemes, wisdom and powers turned the Sith into a force that could destroy the Galaxy. Luckily, they were the greatest threat to each other as well, and so they all killed each other- and no more was the Nemesis to a Jedi Master meant to be seen again. Yet it is not totally unknown. Jedi that fall to the Dark Side tend not to live long enough to become Masters. Very rarely, a Nemesis can still be found.
It might seem easier to play a Nemesis than a Master- not so. Although they have less to worry about in the being respectable area- no rules to follow- they have to hold together people who, by nature, would normnally seek to eliminate each other. And in putting into action their plans of conquest, they actually need just as much maturity and intelligence as a Master; so likewise, playing a Nemesis is a very solemn undertaking. Also, as you will see from the templates, no more than one is allowed.
Long term play for a Nemesis can yield enormous power indeed- their schemes are complex, and long-term- and devastating if successful.
-----
Bane (Type E)
Only a Master of Evil
The Bane is a very bad thing. Jedi who fall cannot really become Masters- there is no-one to teach them, and they have not the patience, the time, or the resources to discover things for themselves. But the Bane... is a Master who fell. This was never meant to happen, and it is only the slow decay of the Republic that has encouraged it. It is hard to describe what could possibly drive a Master to the Dark Side- but in the end, they are only human. Now the Dark Side has a powerful new conduit.

-
Overlord (Special)
If only you knew the power of the Dark Side
The Overlord is not really a Master as the Jedi would see it. He is the only practical example of 'Masterhood' for a Dark Sider in this era. Simply put, the Overlord survived, he made a grab for power, and he killed everyone who stood in his way until he made it. He has not exactly great wisdom, but he has a very practical instinct that has served him well, and in exercising the sheer force of his emotion to power his Force, he is a Master of a sort- enough for his rules to work the same as a Master, in any case. The Overlord is not just a thug out of place- he has earned his place as a ruler of things, a game few survive, and he intends to go further.

4. Assigning Stats and Skills
'Stats' (Statistics) are the measure of the basic physical and mental capacities of your character.
Skills are what your character has aptitudes in- including fighting.
Both are easy to assign to your template.
Stats
Strength is a measure of your physique and toughness; it is used to resist damage, to do damage in close combat, and is also the basis of power attacks in lightsabre duelling.
(Note- for Matrix players, Strength in this game incorporates Constitution and Toughness)
Agility is a measure of your character's mobility and athleticism. It helps you fight up close and make acrobatic manoeuvres, as well as being the basis of outflanking attacks in lightsabre duelling.
Dexterity is a measure of your character's finesse and handling skills; it is used to pilot, fire guns, and is the basis of classical attacks in lightsabre duelling
Speed is a measure of your character's wits and reaction speed. It is not used in skills but sets how fast and how often you move in a fight.
Charisma is a measure of your character's strength of personality- it enables to to better relate to others, whether that be being friendly or threatening to kill.
Intelligence is a measure, of course, of how smart your character is, which can be quite an asset to a Jedi or Dark Sider, who are taking the roles of policemen or master criminals respectively.
Willpower is your strength and firmness of mind, used to resist mental effects and keep going in the face of adversity.
Perception is your ability to notice things, from clues at a crime scene to an incoming ambush.
To set your stats, simply add the amount your template allows you to between physical and mental stats. 5 is the average for a being in the Galaxy, 6 a better average for trained people like yourselves, 7 is the exceptionally fit/clever level- a level that Jedi rather strive to reach- and 8 means you are actually at the limit! Impressive.
All templates point out that the attribute maximum is 8; this is the highest a stat can go for a 'human' template (where 'human' is a wide term referring to about 90% of Star Wars races who are pretty much the same as humans in the end- like Twi'leks and Zabraks). Exotic alien templates with different maximums exist but I am leaving them in the background for now.
Note also that there is a limit on the combined total of your Strength, Agility and Dexterity- 21 for the more physically active templates, 20 for the less capable ones, and 22 for the Type Ds. This is to help regulate lightsabre duelling. However, you do not need to worry about this, because I have simply put the points you could not put into Strength, Agility and Dexterity into Speed instead, which is why the templates tend to have a higher base speed then Strength/Agility/Dexterity (the remaining physical points actually cannot bring you past that limit, which we call the SAD limit, if I have done it right, that is). But it is useful to bear in mind that this prohibition technically exists. By the same logic, bear in mind that if your Strength/Agility/Dexterity are not even, you are favouring one lightsabre style over another. Type Ds, who have an extra physical stat past everyone else, always favour a style, but without disfavouring another. Type Bs and other less combat capable templates always have to disfavour a style.
If a stat has an '=' sign by it- notably for Masters- then it cannot be increased; it is already as high as it can go.
Finally, note that Willpower has already been spent on in most templates, which is why it is higher- this is because Willpower is easy for a Jedi to ignore as most mental effects involve using the Force, and a Jedi can use his own Force to counter such effects. So rather than everyone moping around with weak-willed Jedi, it has been forcibly spent upon.
Skills
All skills are based on a stat. To get your final level in that skill, add the stat and the '+' number relevant to the skill. So someone with a Combat skill of +4 would check his Agility, which Combat is based on. If his Agility is 7, his combat would therefore be 7+4 to make 11.
You may add points to your given skills, or in some cases any skills, as noted on the template (if you do not add to a +0, simply ignore it). Unless stated, the maximum for the final total of the skill (not the + number, the final total with the stat included) is 12.
If a skill has a '=' sign by it- normally for fighting skills, and always for Lightsabre- then it will always equal that final amount, including the stat, no matter what. So if a Guns skill is =13, then it final + number will equal whatever is needed to get it to 13. Guns is based on Dexterity, so if your Dexterity was 7, the + number would become 6 to make 13; if your Dexterity was 8, the + number would be 5. Nothing will change this final amount so don't spend points on an = skill (after all, they are set at a high level for you as it is!)
Here is a summary of skills:
Combat (Agility): The ability to fight up close unarmed or with a melee weapon other than a Lightsabre.
Fix-it (Perception): Technical knack and know-how, always an important skill in Star Wars for little emergency jury-rigs on the job
Gambling (Perception): The ability to either play well in skill-based, or judge well in luck based, gambling games. Gambling is a useful social skill.
Guns (Dexterity): The ability to fight, preferablty at a distance, with the wide variety of handheld arms in the Starwars galaxy, from small pistols to longarms.
Heavy Weapons (Dexterity): The ability to operate very large weapons, including rocket launchers and the like. Force Users very rarely have this skill.
Intimidation (Charisma): The ability to compel others, either by threats or general scary presence, to do what you want.
Intrusion (Agility): The ability to break and enter- just as vital for Jedi penetrating hostile bases as it is for Dark Siders up to no good.
Jedi Lore (Intelligence): Knowledge of the mysteries of the Force, and the secrets of the Jedi and the Sith. The first campaign was a Jedi Lore plot and you can expect to see it being useful again in future.
Languages (Intelligence): Your general knowledge of other languages. Whilst most aliens speak basic, it is often highly useful to understand others in their native tongue.
Law (Intelligence): Not the knowing of what is and is not illegal- it is assumed all Jedi know that part of their job well enough- but law as a lawyer or politician would see it- understanding the legal system, how to use it, abuse it, speed it or slow it. This is an obscure and difficult skill and cannot be taken unless noted on your sheet- for Jedi, that is for the Venerable Master or Bane only.
(Many look down at this sort of skill, but they will be laughing less when they work out Palpatine became Emperor using it)
Leadership (Charisma): The ability to get others to follow your lead by example and direction.
Lying (Charisma): The ability to fool and deceive others. All Dark Siders lie, of course, but only those with this skill are any good at it!
Medicine (Intelligence): The ability to treat basic wounds and other mdecial problems, and identify the cause of wounds.
Observation (Perception): The ability to notice things- not just physical things, but also to notice things about the manner of a person, for example
Persuade (Charisma): The ability to get people to help you via means of reasoned argument
Pilot (Dexterity): The ability to fly ships and drive vehicles. Pilot is often used as a combat skill in some circumstances.
Sabotage (Dexterity): The generic ability to wreck stuff- from viruses to electro-disruption to big bombs
Savoir-Faire (Charisma): Cultural knowledge of the Galaxy- essential for travellers like yourselves, this helps you blend in to and understand the myriad planets and cultures you will encounter over time.
Seduction (Charisma): The ability to bring others under your thumb via means of personal attraction. Not a common skill for Jedi or even Dark Siders, but it does happen...
Lightsabre (Special): Combat training involving the wielding of a Lightsabre, a difficult and dangerous discipline. People without the Force can learn Lightsabre but without Force Sense cannot use it defensively, are limited to 12, it cannot exceed their Combat skill, and it costs double to learn... so on the whole, only Jedi and Dark Siders use these weapons! In most ways, Lightsabre is the central skill to any Jedi; it is based on any one of Strength, Agility or Dexterity.
-----
Your characters also have a Force stat and two Force skills- Force Attack and Force Defence- these cannot be changed at character creation and are dealt with in the Force section of the main rules.

5. ASSIGNING POWERS AND TRICKS
This process is also very simple, though many put a lot of thought into it. Tricks represent your particular talents in some areas whilst force powers are used to regulate your diverse abilities with the Force.
You have a numeric value of each tricks and or power you can chose- to pick your powers and tricks, look them up in the main rules, see how they work, and pick the ones you want!
At this point, you may also choose your Merits- background advantages your character has, like a starship or ally- and if you are an Acolyte or Orphan, you may chose a Talent- representing a natural gift with the Force that can never be duplicated by experience or skill. Merits and Talents are described in the Main Rules.

REFERENCE- Non-Force templates
Though not, in my campaign, available for play, there also exist a number of non-force using templayes for heroes that are not Jedi or Dark Siders. You may run into such templates during the course of play so I will privide a quick reference to them here.
Note that nearly all non-force users- soldiers and bounty hunters and pirates- are, of course, mooks. These people who deserve templates are the incredibly rare, the best of the best, the tops in a Galaxy of over a trillion beings, all legends either on their home worlds or in the wider Galaxy. Only people wiuth such incredible talent can be compared to a Jedi- and even so, an equivalent 'level' Jedi is still considred more dangerous. Nonetheless, these people can be very dangerous, especially to the less combat capable Jedi types.
As part of what makes them so talented, these templates get a 'Fortune' rating instead of a Force rating, representing a weak tie to the Force that manifests as good luck. Familiar to players of my Matrix game (where it was for players only, it is different in this game), Fortune can give such templates unexpected advantages in some situations. It is most certainly not as powerful as Force, though, and only replenishes between Episodes, not sequences!
These templates also get access to Devices, chosen like Tricks, which are powerful pieces of technology that aid them.
-----
Heroes and Scoundrels (Light Side equivalent)
These good guys are either true, morally upstanding heroes, who want to halt the decline of the Republic, or dodgy types who live outside the system but have a heart of gold underneath. Good guys tend to be less directly flashy and devastating, but the Force seems to favour them rather more, and luck seems to save them from hopeless looking situations!
These people make good allies for Jedi (though some may think you are there to arrest them!) and can be obstructions for Dark Siders.
-
Free Trader
You love me because I'm a scoundrel
Basically a famed smuggler with a larger conscience than he wants or needs (but beholden to it anyway), the Free Trader is an all-rounder and great pilot.
-
Ace
Stay on target
A top of the profession fighter Ace, with a noble instinct.
-
Gambler
Never tell me the odds!
An all-rounder like the Free Trader, less directly skilled but ludicrously lucky!
-
Elder Statesman
The debate is not over
One of the few remaining poltical heavyweights who remains uncorrupted. Also comes with a 'Young Senator' variant.
-
Soldier
This is a dangerous situation
A dedicated, valorous and altrusitic military type, with a 'Commando' variant more suited to close combat.
-
Idealistic Noble
From now on, do as I tell you, ok?
One of the old titled and landed class of the Republic, but bent on using his position, wealth and power for the good of all. Maybe a tad snooty about it though...
-
Primitive Warrior
Someone get this walking carpet out my way!
A Chewbacca type, of course!
-----
Scum and Villainy- Dark Side equivalent
The worst of the worst, these cream of evil have no more conscience than the Dark Siders, and are just as callous. They may be lone nutters or grand scale organisers, but they are all problems, and all very very dangerous. Less directly lucky than the good guys, they are more scary in general, and they tend to be the ones using devices.
These obviously make good opponents for Jedi, who cannot be running into Dark Siders every story! For Dark Siders, these people are POSSIBLE allies, in the right circumstances, but just as often they are dangerous enemies for the Dark Siders as well!
-
Bounty Hunter
He is no good to me dead
A very dangerous combat-capable all-rounder with many devices and a cunning killer instinct. Also very famous.
-
Mercenary
I take orders from only one person. ME!
You find people with loyalty to coin alone everywhere- this one has survived a long time and seen a hundred wars. An all rounder without devices but a good heavy weapons score.
-
Slaver
My kind of scum; fearless and inventive
Also an all-rounder, less combat capable but very social and always with bodyguards, and with contacts amongst those he sells to.
-
Pirate
I have the death sentence on twelve systems!
Obviously not bad in a fight, the pirate is also a fighter ace.
-
Assassin
It was just a job
The Assassin is a ranged specialist killer.
-
Primitive Warrior
Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrggggh!
Just as for the good guys- but evil!

Back in story!
 Gender: Male
Location: Deep shit as always...! |
Toolok Rah (Brigand Type D)- played by Baylin
Found as a child in the wreckage of a star ship of unknown origin on the planet Rishi by a small band of Corellian smugglers and adopted/kept as a pet. Rah’s species (who ever they are) have 3 sets of vocal cords and can sing in quite a unique and amazing way. It was found that when Rah sung bizarre things would happen depending on his mood. This was picked up by a dark jedi who took him to Nubia away from the smugglers and taught him how to use the emotions from his music to focus the force, which ultimately led him down the dark path.
Rah uses a purple, duel bladed light sabre. The Jedi that killed his mentor was using one and Rah was quite impressed by it.
After the death of his mentor Rah wondered the galaxy around Nubia hiring himself out as a thug until he was found by Master Kuylen. Under his new Masters direction Rah learnt to appreciate his talents. Lately he has been helped by Galder in the art of two sabre combat (Just a shame that he still allows his arrogance to get in his way!).

Suppose Xeth should be posted while I'm on...
Jedi Renegade
Xeth Tam
Xeth Tam is a Geonasian from the rocky, desert-like, weapon-making planet of Geonasis. Xeth was discovered to have Jedi potential by Master Numok Geth, a Zabrak Jedi Master, who had investigated the loss of weapon shipments. Master Numok took Xeth with him to Coruscant. Master Yoda gave the approval for training and that Master Numok would be his teacher. After years of rigorous training, Xeth began accompanying Master Numok as a Padawan learner. Xeth greatly respected his master and taught Xeth to be mindful of the living Force. Master Numok was assigned to many adventurous missions. This gave Xeth a like for adventure.
Xeth returned to Geonasis in a Jedi Starfighter. Poggle the Lesser had the Jedi Starfighter destroyed. Xeth then began to notice how corrupt the Geonasians had become. Xeth fled from the planet after fighting a bloody battle in the arena of Poggle the Lesser himself, killing a herd of Nexus then escaping to the hangars, and receiving help from a fellow Geonasian convict named Sun Rek, who hotwired a Geonasian starfighter and piloted it to Coruscant. The event terrified him, and he named the ship The Nexu’s Grin, having it custom painted to have the look of a Nexu. The Nexu's Grin also became a signature move of his, slashing and twirling his yellow lightsaber at the same time.
Xeth is insectoid with a hard mottled brown exoskeleton and two mouths. His natural wings have been crippled by the bloody fight in the Arena when a Nexu shredded the to ribbons, so he rarely uses them. His robes match the red sands of his homeworld, and underneath them he wears a shiny set of Geonasian body armor, punctured in a few places where he had been stabbed by the Dark Jedi Dak Kaliero and Larios Kuylen with lightsabers. He carries a sonic blaster and a DL-44 pistol to ward off anyone who dares threaten the innocent or himself.

Aight, time for the final unveiling of Nume Rand, though I still need the Master Tricks... 
Dark-Side Nemesis
Nume Rand
Born on Glee Anslem, Nume Rand showed great control of the Force even at an early age. Trained a renowned Jedi Master in countless forms of combat and negotiation, Nume was highly regarded by the Council, and had potential to be on the Council himself if he kept at it. Awarded the title of Jedi Master after numerous years of duty, such as bringing a peace between the Mon Calamari and Quarren on Mon Calamari and bringing an end to a group of murderous Dark Jedi assassins, there was not one Jedi who did not know his name. But he had a fascination for history. Often did he read tomb upon tomb of the history of the Sith and the ways of the Dark-Side. Behind the Council’s back he viewed Sith Holocrons. When apprehending villains, he became more violently, making the deaths of them seem like accidents. Finally, the lure of the Dark-Side became overwhelming. On a mission in the Outer Rim, to the gladiatorial world of Rattatak, he not only beheaded the target that was to be brought in alive, but tore his own apprentice limb from limb for refusing to join him on the path down the Dark-Side. Then he killed every last warrior in the gladiator’s arena, making his fall to the Dark-Side complete and reveling in the havoc around him. Afterwards, he joined the Mecrossa Order, a group of expert assassins and poison-makers, said to have been backed by the Sith a millennia ago.
He bleached his green skin to a pale and eerie white, his black eyes piercing and disturbing. His numerous head tentacles, which are tied back by two black bands, contain highly sensitive olfactory receptors, allowing him to detect pheromonal expressions of emotion and other changes in body chemistry, which, when combined with the mind-reading abilities of the Force, allow him to know his opponent’s every feeling and thought. He uses this advantage to pry at taunt at his opponents’ minds. He wears a tattered, blood-stained and blackened Jedi tunic under a heavy, dark blue cloak, which conceals his single, red lightsaber, which has a hooked, poisonous barb from the mouth of a dangerous predator from Glee Anslem. Having met Larios Kuylen during his days as a Jedi Master and a fellow historian, he tried to track him down, but ended up merely finding his followers that had survived the conflict on Zeiton. He possesses a red lightsaber. He believes that only the strong will survive life in the galaxy, and only helps his allies on rare occasions. He enjoys toying with his enemies and enraging them, then, if possible, killing them brutally.

Changes on Galder's load-out. More speed stuff.
Dark-Side Marauder
Galder Starkiller
The son of two powerful Jedi Knights who left the Order, his family was stranded on Hoth where his parents succumbed to misery and the endless winter. His father, Gathol, and mother, Vanth, taught him what he could of the Force and how to use a lightsaber before dying in the cold. His mother‘s lightsaber was lost, but left in his care was his father‘s lightsaber, green-bladed. Galder found passage off the planet with a smuggler group. They directed him to Tatooine, knowing he had some skills in the ways of the Jedi. He discovered a Dark Jedi named Pazol hiding out in Beggar’s Canyon while trying to blend in with other youths of the Jundland Waste area. The evil swordsman extended Galder’s training, and once he was more powerful than the old man, Galder struck him down in combat and took his lightsaber. From then on, he worked as a mercenary for various Hutts and other crime lords. During his time serving under Traleth the Hutt, he became infamous for wiping out an entire pirate clan, having discovered that the clan had forced his family to crash on Hoth purely for sport. A man named Kuylen hired him as a bodyguard on Nar Shaddaa soon after, requesting protection from bounty hunters. A business deal went wrong with a gang of Rodians, and Galder held them off as long as he could until he was outnumbered greatly. He joined forces with Kuylen after seeing his client’s own skills with a lightsaber, seeing that he could learn more from this mysterious man, though Galder already had a reputation among the Jedi as a formidable opponent and murderous Dark-Sider, as well as numerous lucky escapes. Galder decided to join Kuylen for survival and glory, and followed the man through most of his glorious plans.
Galder is a grizzled figure, with short messy hair and numerous scars on his tan skin. He wears black pants with a Corellian bloodstripe up the side, as well as a black leather jacket and a dark gray tank top. His left arm, starting just above the elbow, is mechanical, the original flesh having been removed by Jedi Master Marcus during an intense battle on Malastare. He carries a blue-bladed lightsaber of his own creation, modeled after his father’s, and the blood-red lightsaber of an ancient Sith Lord, and a heavy assault rifle is slung over his back, and two machine pistols loaded with bastic warheads in holsters at his belt. His starship, the Raging Reek II, is his gun warehouse and mobile home, piloted by his lanky Kaminoan ally, Rura Ta. Galder has a happy-go-lucky attitude towards life, believing that if something can be done easily, it should be done easily. He takes pride in his abilities with weaponry of all kinds, and uses aggressive negotiations whenever possible.

Light-Side Jedi Knight
Christof Joulden
Background: (Episode 1 of Christof's tale is done in the GF section, I can post a link if you'd like.) Christof Joulden grew up as a slave on Falleen, a reptilian run planet. He was a slave to the big lizards. Through some controversy, a Jedi Master named Dukaray Senemi discovered him. Dukaray swept him away to be trained.
While under Dukaray, the duo pushed their noses into a deep hole, one that they may not have gotten out alive...Dukaray dueled with a Dark Jedi, just out of Christof's 'reach'(he couldn't get to the two). Christof watched his master 'die'.
A few years later, Christof took the Jedi Trials and passed with flying colors, he was told to investigate who killed his master. He soon found out and tracked him down, ready for anything that would happen, almost.
When he found the Dark Knight, he had an apprentice: Dukaray. Instead of holding off, though, the Dark Knight AND Dukaray faught Christof. Obviously, Christof was victorious.(Reputation Merit)
After the incident, he battled with the dark side for a little while(because of the guilt of killing his master) but, his purpose became clear: Help to keep order in the galaxy.

Here's my characther's description
Name: Densk Shadowtracer
Gender: Male
Species: Humanoid
Age: 19
Status: Freelancer
Description: Black hair spiked up. A tan complection. He has green eyes. Strong jaw figure. His face looks young although it contains his older looking jaw figure. A small silver loop earing in his left ear. A dark black vest, a dark under robe but the robe is cut short at the shoulder length so Densk arms are completley nude. He has tan muscular strong arms. A tight jet black cuff on his right wrist, that comes up to two to three inches below his elbow. The cuff has rows of Fringe's on it. The cuff often catches ones eye with it's shiny reflection. Densk wears black pance not to loose not to tight. With a black robe belt. His master didn't approve of Densk cloth style but never made him change it. (Somewhat resembles a royal egyptian with his tanned muscular arms, vest and cuff.)
Backround Information: Densk Shaolin has a interesting life. He was born in Tanjon(a poor planet). Early in his life at the Age 2 his Mother passed away of an illness. His father was unable to move on emotionally, He was mentally unstable. One of the last things his father did was commit Densk to the Academey. Somehow he knew Densk would be eligible. Densk was always diferent then his other fellow trainees. Not strength wise, but personailty wise. He was a bit rough around the edges, sometimes. His heart isn't corrupt though he never remebered his Mother and only good things about his father. Densk motives were always for the best though. He has a good heart.
At the age eleven he was picked to be a Padiwan. His master was Tunj-Dane. He had picked Densk because he seemed interesting. For the two it was awkward at first. But there relationship grew into a strong one. Tunj-Dane broadened Densk horizon. He tought him any new things. They both seemed to have different personailtys though. Tunj-Dane much more calm, and wise. Densk faster paced, doesn't think things completly out more hands on.
Then when Densk was seventeen. Him and his master were on a mission at Tatooine. They had to track down a feind(Genll) who was forging Republican Transmitions. Genll was stealing and reprogramming Repulbican tech, Viceroy Tech and many others as well as important information.
When Densk and Tunj were temporaly seperated while investigating the situation at Tatooine. Tunj warned Densk when he tracked down Genll not to pursue him untill they were both there. Densk underestimated the threat and rushed in Genll's base. It had been a setup trap. A heard of Destroyer Droids set out on Densk. His exit was blocked. Densk could barely hold the droids off. Luckily his Master got there and together they barely defeated them. Genll had escaped though.
Densk and Tunj chased him down on a hover vessel. Finally meeting him out in the middle of the desert. Genll wasn't alone. There was a suprisingly a Sith working with him. They all fought. The sith cut Tunj down. He wounded Densk beleving he killed him.
The Sith and Genll exchanged quick words. It turned out Genll had been working for the Sith. Genll was stealing Republican information on technology. To help the Sith build something extroidanary (the death star.) The Sith left before Genll did. Before Genll rose Densk rose from the sand weak and wounded. Then with blind rage and furry Densk killed Genll. It was a suprising Anger he'd never seen from himself.
Afterwards he couldn't nore wanted to face the council so he left it. He always blamed Tunj's death on himself. He should of never rushed in Genll's base. He should of waited for Tunj to get back. The Sith hadn't been at the base when Densk was there (he would of sensed it). Genll and the Sith must of met in the desert right before Tunj and Densk arrived. So if Densk had been more patient, him and his Master could of fully evaluated the situation surpassed the trap and stop Genll. So Densk had beenbeen living on his own in the real world(s) for the first time and has picked up some nifty tricks(Dexterity).
Weapon of choice: His purple lightsaber
