STAR WARS- For the Credits: Introduction & Character Creation

I expect to hit it off with some people, and hate others. Which is probably the best way to build character all around 😉

I think we'll see who knows who as the game starts, unless anyone wants to arrange specific ties beforehand.

Sorry, that amused me 😛

Any problem with pirate crew consisting mostly of hot and ruthless Twi`leks? 😎

Just entertained that one's name is nearly identical to mine 😛

The general idea is that you are all, for some reason or other, operating out of a tavern on a backwater world that is pereptually muddy and depressing. With the exception of Ineia, of course. Whether or not you are all friends, you at least know each other.

I fully expect hate and loathing. Dooku will expect cooperation, but I expect you to make your characters as unappealing to one another as possible, for whatever reason.

Ivan would be present there because of Serpent interests, I assume?

If you like.

I don't think that'll be a problem, Ineia will probably greatly dislike the entire group 😊

It could be interesting to build some ties before hand.

That can be interesting, and I speak from experience. Also from experience, don't pre-form ties that oppose Lana, she hates that.

😛 Couldn't resist.

Now, if you ASK me beforehand...😛

You have to admit, BB and I springing that on you made the antagonisim more real. Hooray for Method role playing!

Hmm, does Senator Ineia is an aide to enjoy slave concubines?

And I really need to sleep...

This is actually my first try at a detailed RP like this one. I'm going to try to make my character as best as I can.

Probably will post it later today.

Y'know, "I'm so gonna kill you one of these days when you're worth my time" over drinks, that sorta thing? 😉

Don't fret. You'll get lots of friendly help. I had to edit my first one a few times. Just take it step by step, just as Ush lays it out. Check your match and keep notes on how you apply skill points, in other words, 'show your math'. The hardest part really is the name. The second is the background, at least for me. Although I do have a trick for getting names. Use a free translator on the web. IIt still takes some creativity and playing around. I'm not sure whether it's lame or clever, but I think it worked for Het Gevaar (Norwegian for Dangerous)

Valerian, if you have any questions, shoot them my way or post them in here. ✅

For now, I don't have any questions, REX, but thanks for saying. 🙂

Later, however, when I get deeper into the creation I may have. If so, I'll post whatever it is here. 🙂

Alright, I have a question:

How many weapons is my character able to carry? Or are they included in 'Devices'?

Note that there are limits to how much equipment you can carry. Unlike Matrix, this is not related to any semblance of realism, simply style. You may carry:

A. One Melee weapon. For a Jedi, this is always a Lightsabre! This could also be two lightsabres if you use two, or a double-ended one if you use that, but it always conceptually counts as a single weapon- so if you drop 'it' when using two, you drop both. You don't get spares unles the plot gives you one.

B. One rifle, or up to two pistols

C. Any Devices you carry

Larger weapons are more difficult to hide.

Note that there is no need to keep track of ammunition in Star Wars. Also note that the gun ethic in SW is very much encouraging you to use pistols, as the heroes/villains on film do.

Generally if you have a heavy weapons skill, you can take some sort of big gun in addition.

Hey Jordan...
So I don't have to mess around with posting things twice can you use super MOD powers and change my Nerve Strike for Hard Strike or whatever, and add a backpack mortar as a device?

Gotcha.
