You've joined a ragtag group of bounty hunters being
paid to track and eliminate the most dangerous prey: wizards of a dead
religion, called the Jedi. You're serving the Empire's directive to hunt
down and kill all Jedi. The pay is great, if you survive. The Empire is
in it's prime, and everywhere you look you see the byproducts of a
dystopian galactic government that considers you a slave. But hey,
credits are credits, right?
THE GROUP
Sundays at 12pm CST (6pm GMT) - Games last for 7 hours with a thirty minute or so break in the middle. This weekend will be our third game session, and we still have two slots to fill.
THE GAME
The system is WORLD OF DARKNESS (NWOD), with the
ARETE/HERO template from the book MIRRORS. We have created our own supernatural template for Jedi based loosely on the templates for Vampires and Mages. Only veterans of my campaigns can play Force Sensitives, but I
have tweaked the game quite a bit so that anyone can have equally
satisfying abilities. There are no "levels" but you can advance and
expand your character's class abilities, advantages and attributes, as
well as discover new equipment and artifacts to enhance your
capabilities in game as well.
CLASSES
All of them. You can any be non-Force Sensitive class you
want. Here are just a few examples: (Just to name a few. Mix and match
or make up your own class, or pick one from a video game. Each has
unique Asset Skills and Contacts.)
-Mercenary -Droid Mechanic -Alderaanian Nobility
-Assassin
-Bothan Spy
-Twi'lek Slave
-Hutt Crime Lord
-Paranoid Android
-Imperial Officer
-Storm Trooper
-Fighter Pilot
-Rebel Guerrilla Soldier
-Janitor on the Death Star
-Hyperdrive Engineer
-Armorer
-Asteroid Miner
-and anything else you can dream of...
REWARDS
You will be rewarded in this game not for how many storm
troopers you kill but for how well you roleplay. While "XP" is awarded
for being in dangerous situations, such as battles or fights, you will
earn many more game mechanics rewards for being a good
whatever-it-is-you-are (see above.) Morality will be governed by a
Morality system which is common to World of Darkness games, which allows
you to behave as badly as you please, provided you're prepared to deal
with a derangement or three...
REQUIREMENTS
1 No Gungans.
2 You must be more mature than me. (Pretty low bar, I assure you.)
3 You are not permitted to argue that the prequel trilogy "wasn't that bad."
4 We will voice chat over Google Hangouts and Skype.
5 You must get with me this week (BEFORE Sunday) to roll up a character.
6 You must be tolerant of other philosophies and ways of life.
7 You must be tolerant of douche bags (I'm the douche bag.)
8 You must not be a douche bag (That's my job.)
9 Basic better-than-my-grandma tech literacy.
10 At least a rudimentary understanding of the Star Wars galaxy. 11 We will be using custom editable PDF character sheets for every player.
WHAT TO EXPECT
-Exciting melee and ranged combat.
-Space battles.
-Planets with personality (Think Pitch Black, and similar titles.)
-Lightsaber duels (not with you, alas, if you're new.)
-No resource dots. (Caveat, you may choose a class for
whom free money is your bread and butter, such as Diplomat or Noble.
Otherwise, credits must be earned from collecting bounties or other
in-game work.)
-Language barriers.
-Gritty, noir galactic fantasy.
-Lewd topics and scenes, including gore, unnecessary
violence, and usually tasteful sex. (Think tasteful romance cutaways.
Again, USUALLY.)
-Fascinating, character-driven, thought provoking stories.
-And good times are had by all! Except that guy. He's an idiot.
