Character Creation & Discussion

[Jedi Skyler]

Welcome aboard, Blaster! Great to have someone else joining in. And yes, I think it'll be interesting to add a female to the mix, especially a slicer. Vin will have need of her skills to make sure he gets his Master's security droid reprogrammed properly.

A possibility for your character joining up with our group might be that she's been acting more like an infiltrator than a thief; since she is going to have to have some kind of alliance with the Sith, she could have been sent to gather information. Her slicer abilities will have allowed her access to computer systems. Her stealth skills, which are a must for a successful thief, will have been of great use during this mission of hers. She may perhaps have even been a part of the unit that our characters have been associated with, which would give us all prior knowledge of each other. When we hit Kashyyyk, she'll have to be in a position to see us come in. When she does, she can then hook up with us, knowing that something has to be up for us to be there. The story can develop from there.

Not set in duracrete by any measure, but it's an idea to work from, if you like it.

Thanks guys.

Stated out the lady yesterday. I might modify her to be more techie, at the moment she had a con rating of 8D so she could talk her way into or out of pretty much anywhere. I think she is going to be very squishy, not face to face combat orientated at all. Fairly good at sneeking up and stabbing people in the back though.

As for force awareness...... I'm not sure. I dont think Zeltrons make good force users!?

Skyler - you got my suggested story almost bang on.

[MasterBlaster]

Quick question - How do you guys handle rolls? Does Gaurdian_A handle it?

For the three characters who have dependably posted and been with us since the beginning (Jedi Skyler, Kaloth Varsk, & Wisconsin Wookie.). As a reward for completing the first chapter, you may each add a +1 to a single skill on your character.

[Jedi Skyler]

Alright...gonna add the +1 to Droid Programming/Repair. Makes sense, since I worked on that with Artee...

[Wisconsin Wookie]

[Guardian_A]

Both looks good to me. You are welcome to go back and edit your original posts to include the stat increase. (I've got character sheets made up on my end so I have my own "hard copy." I'll update things on my end right now for my own reference.)

[Kaloth Varsk]

In the interest of the +1 going into something that I've actively used during that time, I'd like to put it into Space Transports Pilot. (Moving from 4D to 4D+1).

I debated about climbing (since we climbed around the ship for days) but decided to lay off the specialties. That will be on my shortlist for advancement though in the future.

BACKGROUND: Roourarca grew up in a fighting focused clan on Kashyyk. He is quite agile and fast, despite his huge build, taller even for the great Wookiees, and his focused mind made him a great student of the Wookiee martial art, the Wruushi. He made great advancements on his clan ranks, mastering the secrets of the Wruushi at an early age.
He didn't spend time playing with machinery like most of his brothers, but he liked the computer programming and quickly became an accomplished slicer.
Unfortunately he failed to abdie to the most important teachings of his clan and unit, the ones who talked about honor and not techniques. He only cared about winning, at all cost. He somehow was obssesed with wining. He hurt some of the other advanced students to prevent them winning him, he pushed himself to his limits to be the one who took down the prey at the hunting raids. He just wanted to be the best of the best and to be recognize by it.
He felt a deep respect and sense of duty towards his clan, it just that he wanted it, he knew it, it was the best and most powerful clan in all Kashyyk.
It was that compelling feeling that made him fall.
There was another clan who compete with his own. In one annual competition they lose and get the second place. That was more than he could stand.
He sliced on the other clan's computer and knew of their next movements. He changed some things in their schelude and sent some messages to the key members of that clan. Then he sent a message to some Trandoshan slavers and sold the other clan members to them.
He didn't accept a credit, he didn't do it for the profit or the money. All he wanted was his clan honor restored. He failed to see that it were his actions, not the honorable defeat, what bringed shame to his whole clan.

When his actions were discovered he was casted away from his clan, his name erased from its records. No song or record of his great acomplishments would be ever known to the Wookiees.

Even now he feels betrayed by his clan, arguing that he is the only one who truly knows what means to be a wookiee, a pride and lethal hunter. He continues training on a daily basis, and he mantain his own personal code of honor.

He went to the Outer Rim and made for himself a name as bounty hunter and ocassinal slicer. Not respected but feared, he sell his services not only to those who can pay him, but to those who give him an opportunity to put his skill to test.

I like the character! Unless you have an objection, I'm going to make Koahka from the story into your brother, . . . I can see the two of them being an imposing pair!

Can you please post the completed character over on the Completed Characters thread for easy reference? Thanks!

[Frandal]

Of course! I have no objection at all.
