USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CHARACTER CREATION

The idea, Trick, is that people can make their characters from scratch at this point based on the Demaran 'experience'. But if you are happy with a more passive load-out, please don't let me put you off- I was simply commenting; everyone else has gone more aggressive, you see.

And if someone commented that the Dark Side thread seemed to involve the more common use of the aggressive powers... then I would not go out of my way to disagree. But all of the powers have their place.

Pirate Clans are, basically, innumerable; if you take one by default it is assumed to be an important one somewhere. But if you want help, think about the sort of area where it might be nice to call a friend and get some help/info about, and I'll throw some suggestions your way as to what might fit.

Dexx- who is this guy? And how did Takuan meet him? Why are you friends?

well. *plugs in creativity device*

during a job Takuan did for a particular crime lord (let's name him...Makaan), he was supposed to find and retrieve a business partner gone treatcherously to the other side (another elusive pirate organisation), so that makaan can have his last talks with him before offering him a most unpleasant death. (IF takuan doesn't find bringing him alive not worth the hassle). This pirate organisation only kept this target alive, imprisoned in his dungeons, so long as he could provide necessary information about makaan.
Takuan, leading a small group, infiltrates the dungeons and recuperates the traitor, encountering Komae in a close-by cellar. He finds the arkanian's superiority issue quite amusing and decides to release him also, even if only to let him go once they exit the dungeons. The traitor, afraid for his life, knowing what maakan can and will do to him screams on the way out, to attract the guard's attention which calls reinforcements. Takuan immediately snaps the traitor's neck using the force (i didn't have a saber back then) and orders his men to prepare to engage.Impressed, he watches Komae disarm a guard and blasting his way around, providing an easier escape for all of them. After the conondrum is over and they're back on the ship toward's makaan's place, Takuan and Komae agree to contact eachother further in the future...regarding different endeavours.

well...that's it. hope it's not too much to read.

do you think i could link something regarding my reputation with something like this? but..i dunno...just doesn't seem something that lots of people would hear of

You had 15 xp, Rah- details are in the first page of Archival Reference, or in the Survival Guide Noted at the top of the main page.

Righty ho then, I think I've got this sussed, you can correct me if I'm wrong!

I would like to add 2 force powers, Scan and Distract, to Rah's amended stats.

Scan will cost 6.25 XP - (21/4)+1 = 6.25
Distract will 6.5 XP - (22/4)+1 = 6.5

Total cost 12.75 XP

Leaving Rah with 2.25 XP remaining yeah?

If you want to you can round things up to a total cost of 13 XP and leave Rah with 2 XP remaining 🙂

Nice try! But you round up each cost, so that is 7 and 7 leaving you with one.

Fair enough 🙂

Just so my accounting is correct... now Rah has done it, could Galder and Takuan confirm where their experience went, now their characters are re-done? Some costs may have changed, you see- having two extra force powers to start with makes buying new ones more expensive.

i didn't buy any powers. so one increase in saber score. and one blade trick. that's what i remember buying. and i have 1 xp left. that right?

I don't see an extra Blade Trick- which makes sense; paying 26 to increase your sabre score would have rendered you unable to afford one, at 7.

hmm..lemme check

oh yeah...i increased my persuasions core to 12. (-3p)
so that's 29 pts spent...leaves one spare..should be right

Ta very much...

Ha! So you did use my idea of an Ally for you! Hehe! 😄

(points at above question for Galder)

Oh poo, didn't see that coming...

I'll have to redo that when I have the time. 😖 I think I have some xp left anywho...

yep..well...the race, physical description a personality 😄

Yep yep! Komae, though, sounds familiar, where have I heard Komae?

By the way, Zink likes the idea of pulling down buildings with Master Tricks, as said earlier...I'm on the phone with him...

yeah no sh*t...who doesn't 😛 i'll probably never be able to do it *snif*

komae..dunno...i made it up on the spot. might already exist out there, though

The Master Trick 'Power thropugh Patience' (or 'Focus of Power' for the Dark Side) effectively allows you to increase your Force rating for an action by the number of frames you delay in making the action happen, so pulling down a ceiling would require a Force rating of about 25 (and a good roll); that Trick would let you do it.

*snif*....such a shame 🙁...i wanna

Okay, here's my changes...only changing around some Force powers because overall I'm quite happy with my character...
