USH'S STAR WARS GAME 2008- Character Creation

Currently the rules assume that you are either human or human-like (Twi'lek, Zabrak etc.)

The concept of 'Alien Powers' doe technically exist (and one has eben allocated via custom circumstance to Xeth's Geonosian) but they are not really in othe rules systen yet, and would actually require some sort of general template ruling or their own template.

(The only one we can easily bring back is the Brute, which is a Dark Side template from some vast, physically powerful race, an extreme version of the Corsair with a Strength of 6).

So I am afraid more exotic stuff cannot currently be simulated by the rules.

kk, will make a human template then

😐

I must say Ush, new template descriptions are very good and emphazise the different motivations of templates very well!

You don't have to be human - we do have alien characters - just generally humanoid.

Heh, yeah, the descriptions are great. Particularly the Dark Side ones. And of those, especially the descriptions for Pariah, Corsair, and Brigand. They all fit so well...

Yeah everything looks awesome Ush.

the char i was going to make would have been verpine, therefore insectoid in appearance but stands like a humanoid

You could still do that.
You just wouldn't get any special powers.

oh, okay 😐

You have one more point you can spend on physical stats (so increase either strength or agility to 4)...also, as a Freelancer is a Renegade, you get 4 Merit points.

I think everything else is fine, though.

is the contact merit not worth 2 merit points?

Just to step in there- Guidance and Quietening are not things you buy individually, they are powers you get access to by having the Master versions of Intuition and Presence, respectively.

So you should scratch those last two off, and consider if you want to buy any Master versions (remembering that you have to have Mastered the pre-requisite powers first also, so Intuition you can do, but you could not buy Master Presence until you had already bought Master Sense).

Think that's everything...probably missed some stuff though, been watching TV at the same time as typing 😛

It's fine except you have declined to take any Masteries, Spike- probasbly want one or two.

Knew there'd be something, stupid Jeeves and Wooster distracting me 😛

Push/Pull (Master)
Leaping

Swiftness (Master)
Co-ordination
Balance

Sense
Presence (Master)

Intuition

Think that's right. Providing I can master Presence without needing to master sense. If not then I'll master Intuition instead.

Intuition it is, then!

is mine accepted ush?
