The game doesn't play on a board that you'll be able to see. Everything will be described to you in great detail (it's real fun!) and you can do just about anything you can think of while your playing! :) You do get Level but I think everyone is startig at level 1
BTW Whats a Nubian look like?:confused: I have no idea what they are except for the ship..

first...

god i am the game master or gm.

And after talking to kvan i decided that you can have an evil pc, but not sith. In the old republic there are only 2 sith, and they don't play well with others.

Also god have you ever played any of the old text based game??? you know the one where the computer tells you what room you are in and then tells you what way you can go??? That is what an rpg is like, but anything you can think of your pc doing can be done because if it is something i didn't expect i can make up something on the spot.

I am sorry to any one who wants to play chriss but almost everyone said that they didn't want to play in the NJO era.

So again, evil pc's are in, but no sith

It all all depends on the senario Wriath is making. :)
BTW Bounty Hunters a prestige classes so you'll need to talk to wraith about that :)
Also I forgot to mention, Could you guys post your names of your characters, age, height, weight, eye color, hair color, skin color. :) They aren't that important but we should have them. And for thoughs of you that I don't what you are yet, just post that too, thanks :)

To add to what Kvan said i would like a full pc sheet from everyone when we get that far.

I know some of you are think, what in the blue hell is he talking about...

Don't worry about it right now, just make up as muc of the stuff Kvan said and write it down, so you won't forget.

Know am i going to hav eto make a game to fit everyone???

That is going to be really hard, but ithink i coud do it, it will just take some time.

Last, i now i am going to regret this, but if there are a few and i mean no more then 2 people, that really want to play chiss, i can work them into the old republic era.

Now if there are more then 2 people that want to play chiss, we won't use them right now. I don't want any one to get pissed at someone else because that person got to paly a chriss and they didn't. PM me if you are one of the people who want to play chiss, don't post it here right now.

Um, Tie? Your not being that snitch from ANH are you? I think we are supposed to make up your own character :)
Oh and a Kubaz template looks like this;

-2 Str, +2 Cha, +2 Int. Kubaz are very social and educated, but they aren't particularly strong.

Medium-size. As Medium-size creatures, Kubaz have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size.

Kubaz base speed is 10 meters.

+4 species bonus to Survival checks. Kubaz come from a harsh desert world and are taught to survive with minimal resources.

Scent. This allows the Kubaz to detect approaching enemies, sniff out hidden foes, and track by sense of smell. See SWRPG Core Rulebook, p.257, for complete description of Scent ability.

Automatic Languages: Kubaz, Basic.
But you don't have to worry about all that :)

Actually I do! +2 Int, -2 Cha.

Medium-size. As Medium-size creatures, Quarren have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size.

Quarren base speed is 10 meters.

+4 species bonus to Survival checks.

Low-Light Vision. Quarren see twice as far as a Human in dim light (such as moonlight or underwater). They retain the ability to distinguish color and detail under these conditions.

Amphibious. As amphibious creatures, Quarren can breathe either air or water normally. They also have a +4 species bonus on Swim checks.

Automatic Languages: Quarren, Basic.

Age: 31 How long do trandoshan live?

Height: 2.2 metres

Weight: 238 lbs How much do they weigh?

Eye Colour: Blue (The abnormality of green or blue eyes is looked upon as a status symbol in the Trandoshan culture)

Hair Colour: None

Skin Colour: Light brown/ tan


Kvan: I found this... I'm not sure it useful though

TRANDOSHAN
Trandoshans are large, reptilian humanoids from the planet Trandosha (or Dosha). They have supersensitive eyes that can see into the infrared range and the ability to regenerate lost limbs when they are young. They also shed their skin. Trandoshans are a warlike species who allied early with the Empire, taking Wookiees as slaves. They value hunting above all else and worship a female deity known as the Scorekeeper, who awards jagannath points to Trandoshans based on their success or failure in the hunt. They have a difficult time manipulating delicate objects with their relatively clumsy clawed hands. The bounty hunter Bossk, and his father Cradossk (one-time head of the Bounty Hunters Guild) were both Trandoshans.

Trandoshans can use their heightened sense of smell to 'scent' for a particular person, determining if that person has passed through the area recently. Trandoshans can also use their claws in combat, inflicting long, dripping wounds with 'tear'. Trandoshans gain a +1 to strength and -1 to dexterity.
 Darth_Rommel
08-21-2001, 4:12 PM

Ooops... here's more:

SCENT
Syntax: scent (player)

This skill allows a Trandoshan to determine if has been in that area recently.

This skill is only useable by Trandoshans.


TEAR
Syntax: tear (target)

Trandoshans can inflict terrible bleeding wounds on their victims using their dreadful claws in combat. While the initial damage is not large, the wounds continue to bleed for some time, thus weakening the Trandoshan's victim.

This skill is only useable by Trandoshans.

Okay ... I figured some things out. I just hope I'll be permitted. I haven't figured naming and things like that out. Just the stats:

Ryn

Ryn are a nomadic species hailing from an unknown region of the Core. They are descended from flying mammals, and are covered in short, bristly hair that is often of varying color. Ryn have a reputation of being thieves and confidence men, but are usually good to get along with. In addition to wearing outlandish and sometimes vulgar fashions, they have tremendous music aptitude - which likely evolved along with their perforated, flute-like beak.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
d20 stats:

+2 Wisdom, -2 Charisma. Ryn are very well versed in the workings of cultures across the Galaxy. While their nomadic nature has given them a good amount of practical knowledge, their secrecy and reputation as con men and ne'er-do-wells has bred prejudice among the rest of the galaxy.
Medium-size: As medium-size beings, Ryn have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size.
Ryn base speed is 10 meters.
Prehensile Tail: Ryn have limited use of their tails. They have enough control to move relatively heavy objects (under 90 kilograms), but the control is not fine enough to perform fine manipulation (for example, to aim a weapon).
Perceptive: Ryn gain the Sharp-eyed feat for free.
Automatic Languages: Ryn, Basic.

And ofcourse, my ship:

YT-1210 Light Freighter

The first upgrade of the YT-1200 (featuring a shield generator and a faster hyperdrive), this freighter had a fairly short production run because its innovations led to the YT-1300 only a few decades later. Nonetheless, it has been very common throughout the Galaxy for over two centuries.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
d20 stats:

Craft: Corellian Engineering Corporation YT-1210 Transport
Class: Transport
Cost: 20,000 (used)
Size: Small (35 m)
Crew: Normal +2 (2 crew)
Passengers: 4
Cargo Capacity: 100 tons
Consumables: 2 months
Hyperdrive: x2 (backup x16)
Maximum Speed: Attack
Defense: 21 (+10 armor, +1 size)
Shield Points: 30
Hull Points: 120
DR: 10
Weapon: Laser cannon
Fire Arc: Turret
Attack Bonus: +5 (+1 size, +2 crew, +2 fire control)
Damage: 4d10x2
Range Modifiers: PB +0, S +0, M/L n/a

Okay, maybe I'm too demanding. But can I be a spacer? It is not listed in your list, but there are spacer in the SW universe. Not a smuggles. Just someone who tries to make his money with transporting goods and people ...

Height: 1.5 metres

Eye Colour: Red

Yes, Gamma732 is well aware of the traditions of the Gand, however, being a merc-type person, Gamma732 may see it fit to have Gamma732's character to part from those traditions. Gamma732 will decide later when he has more time. That is if ya smell what..........ah forget it lol ;)

Why don't you make one up, Kvan? Here's the info in the essential guide to aliens:

Defel/ Wraith

Designation: Sentient

Planet of Origin: Af'El

Average Height: 1.7 metres

The Defels, often called wraiths, are stocky, fur covered humanoids with protruding snouts and hands with long claws and triple jointed digits. They can only be seen undert ultra violet light. In standard light, Defels appear to be little more than ghosts- red eyed shdows that are difficult to detect with the human eye. They have the ability to bend light around there bodies, causing them to blend in with there surroundings. Defel's live in underground cities on their homeworld, where they are known for their ore mining facilitiesand there excellence in metallurgy. Offworld, Defels are often hired as spies and assassins due to there ability to 'disappear'

*gasps* So much typing :(

Here's what I get for attributes: Dexterious (metallurgy, triple jointed), Good social skills (live together in underground cities), Good sense of smell (long nose)... can anyone think of others?
