Character Creation Rules

Characters who transfer into Black Talon Squadron must provide something.   Commander Sheppard makes the most of his troops.

All his people must be accomplished pilots as well as provide some secondary commando skills.  Suggestions include:

Sniper
Demolitions Expert
Slicer
Infiltrator
Scrounger
Medic

The commander considers all applicants.  Make sure you include a detailed description on your chars history, future ambitions, etc.


This is a mature game and requires similar characters.  If you're looking for a hack and slash game where consequences mean nothing then look elsewhere.  Looking for serious roleplayers here (not rollplayers, powergamers or rules lawyers).

Re: Character Creation Rules

CHARACTER CREATION RULES RULES - Updated 11 June 11

Era of Play
Force Unleashed/Rebellion Era (Currently <1 year before SW Episode IV/Rogue One)

Starting Level
Level 6

Ability Scores
Planned generation system--30 point

Playable Species
Human, Bothan, Cerean, Duros, Gungan, Ithorian, Kel Dor, Rodian, Sullustan, Trandoshan, Twi'lek, Wookiee, Zabrak. (as per RPGA Network Play rules, RCR p. 15).  A Droid character is playable with GM approval.
From the Rebellion Era Sourcebook: "The Empire fostered an ongoing campaign to deny alien species their rights and freedoms.  Humans were looked upon as the favored species in the Empire--as long as those Humans followed Imperial law and pledged their lives to the Emperor's New Order.  Most members of an alien species were denied privileges and reduced to second-class status.  Some species, such as Wookies, were enslaved and outlawed as dangerous in most Imperial-controlled regions.  While life was somewhat easier away from the Core Worlds, the Outer Rim also provided the secrecy the Empire needed to turn whole planets into labor colonies toiling to maintain the Imperial war machine.
Because of these abuses and atrocities, many alien species joined the Rebel Alliance.  From free Wookies such as Chewbacca to the bulk of the Mon Calamari species, individuals and entire civilizations rose up to protest and eventually revolt against the tyrannical Empire.  In the Star Wars saga, free Wookies in this period are rare, and Ewoks aren't "discovered" until the time of the Battle of Endor."


Rebellion Era Class Restrictions (as per Rebellion Era Sourcebook, p. 5):
No force users at level 1.  All force-wielding classes/feats/skills are subject to GM approval as well as the rules below.

Force Adepts: "a character with strong ties to the Force and raised on an out-of-the-way world under a different Force tradition can start play as a 1st-level Force adept."

Jedi Counselor:  "is not available in this time period for player characters..."

Jedi Guardian: "is available to player characters, but no character in this era can start play as a... Jedi guardian."  Beyond starting level(s) a player character can obtain Jedi Guardian levels with approval from the Community GMs.  Approval is granted based on role playing ability.
