Clone Wars Campaign

[themuffinman1201]

I'm planning on running a Clone Wars campaign, but I have a little problem. One of my players wants to be a jedi, but that would mean he would be an apprentice at the time. So naturally he would need a master.

How do I incorporate the master into the adventures?

Also, what should I start the force stats at since it would make sense for the jedi to not completely suck as an apprentice?

And can anyone tell me where I can find the stats of Anakin towards the end of the Clone Wars (around where he hit Knight-hood)? I'm not too concerned about the other Jedi stats because Anakin is the only one that progressed a significant amount in that time. Thanks for the help.

What you can do is to have the Jedi Master MIA during a solo mission and the Council can't spare anyone to be a substitute at the time, so the apprentice is out on his own and is assigned to the rest of the PCs. Naturally he's also looking out to see if his master is alive and if he can be rescued.

The master should really only be a plot device, IMO but certainly he/she could contribute greatly to the background of any campaign. As evidenced by the movies it was not uncommon for padawans to be given an independant assignment - Anakin was given the task of ensuring Padme's safety for example. Given what was apparently a chronic manpower shortage for the Jedi during the Clone Wars it would be easy to assume the master is on the "important" mission and the padawan is given the "milk-run" (though it never turns out that way for PCs does it!?!) to keep them busy and give them some essential experience operating on their own.

As for stats, Gry Sarth provided this:
Galaxy Guide 15 - Attack of the Clones. It has Anakin's profile; however you are to consider that Anakin was not a "typical" padawan learner.

On that PDF you get Anakin's Ep2 stats. And here are his Ep3 stats (from the ever-upcoming Ep3 Sourcebook) so you can create something in-between:

Is there anything you don't have the stats for Gry?

[Gry Sarth]

Just one or two things. But I'm halfway done with them and should be finished by tonight.

In my current Clone Wars campaign, two of my players are using Jedi characters. One is a full-fledged Jedi (mystic) and the other is an apprentice. The apprentice characters master is the Jedi General overseeing GAR operations in the sector the campaign is taking place in. He is mostly involved as a teacher and once in while ace in the whole-type character, but for the most part the Jedi characters are sans master and things are going well.

I am also using the master as a potential Dark Side/Dark Jedi encounter for the group to role-play their way through as he slowly moves from a 'what would a Jedi do' to a 'what would a general/warlord do' attidude about the Clone Wars. He is increasingly make choices to save his own men's lives and innocent bystanders of CIS troops be damned. Eventually he'll fail that all important Dark Side Point roll and fall and then the group will either have to redeem him or get their rear ends handed to them when they try to take him down
