Star Wars Force & Destiny. Ongoing game in need of additional players.

[PixelatedPixie]

Hello!

I am currently running a Force and Destiny game set in the Post Battle of Yavin era.  So far the characters have escaped a riot on Ord Mantell and crashed on an unidentified planet where they have encountered stranded scavengers and slavers.  The game has been paused for a bit due to my absence, and I am looking to get it restarted.  We are down to two characters, so I am looking for a couple more to add in (though they may not immediately meet up with the other player characters).

It is rated Nonconsensual-Exotic.  I do want to explore mortality, and am hoping to make things more character driven.

• You don't have to use a Career/Specialization from the Force and Destiny book, but you do have to take a specialization that gives you a force rating with your initial XP if you don't.  I believe both of the other books have one in the back.
• Droids will not be allowed, as they can't be force sensitive.
• I do intend to have non-consensual content, but it will come down to the characters, players, and dice for how often it happens.  It may happen to the characters, but if characters start falling to the dark side, I am not opposed to them initiating it.
• You don't have to play a character that matches your gender.  Play what you want to play.
• I will not restrict books even though I don't own all of the splatbooks.  However if I discover that someone is using something incorrectly (or cheating) I reserve the right to remove them from the game or punish their character appropriately.  Misreads and typos do happen, but please do double check things (read the longer blurb for talents, not just the summary in the charts).
• I won't be going strictly canon.  So the extended universe and my own creations are possible and valid.  For example, I may take some inspiration from the Force Unleashed.
• If you are going non-Force and Destiny for a character, ignore Obligation/Duty and we will figure out your Morality after creation if you don't have the book.  All characters will get the option of +10 XP, OR +2500 credit, OR +5 XP and +1000 credits.

If you'd like to join, please fill out the below.

Goodness.  I do enjoy Star Wars.  And I do enjoy FFG's take on the game.

Can I ask what sort of characters would be the best fit for the game?  Partially in terms of skillset (don't want to make a duplicate of one of the existing players!), but moreso in terms of background.  Scoundrels?  Scholars?  Fringers?  Soldiers?  Or just anyone who can explore morality in interesting ways?

[wander]

I'm up for joining. I'll have a look at the Force and Destiny core and see what character concept appeals to me the most.

If there's a current gap in the party I'd up for filling that based on the corebook stuff too.

[PixelatedPixie]

The current characters are a Seeker Pathfinder and a Sentinal Artisan.

As for background I am not sure there is anything specific that will fit best.  Anyone could have interesting moral choices, though whether I can manage them well or not is always a question.  So whatever you want to play is probably fine, whether darker, lighter, or conflicted.

[wander]

Okay, I'm leaning on a Guardian then, something to add a bit of combat help in. Likely a Protector to white mage the party as needed. Depending on what species I go for will probably lean more on where I go from there, though having someone like Obi-Wan who had protected younglings and padawans from the Purge and is a bit older seems interesting to me.

Brief History:


Is there any specific sexual content you want to happen involving your character?  Is there anything that you don't want to happen to your character?  Is there anything you don't want to read/see in the thread?
I'm pretty hard to squick, so there's nothing I wouldn't really want to see in the thread, as any particulars are covered by E's content rules anyway. As for my character... I like butt-stuff, bring them all the big bootied ladies who like things going back there!

Is there any specific non-sexual content you want to happen involving your character?
I like exploration, new locales and a good pacing. I get antsy when stuck in the same locale for a long amount of time if little is occuring. I'd like to see some combat scenes for my guy and in general anything where I can roll the dice and learn more about the system, the more the better.

Name:  Danni Quinn
Species:  Human
Sex: Female
Career/Specialization(s):  Sentinel (Shadow)
Brief History:  Born on the planet Ord Mantell.  Her parents were indebted to crime syndicates, and worked for them at very low levels.  It seemed almost certain that when she became an adult, or perhaps even earlier, she'd be forced into the same line of work.  Instead, she ran, managing to stow away on an outbound freighter.

Ever since, Danni has been living on the streets of various cities, doing her best to keep her head down and scrape by, working with any crew she can.  When she feels pressure getting too high, or that the time is right, she hops aboard another frieighter, and moves to the next place.

Is there any specific sexual content you want to happen involving your character?  Is there anything that you don't want to happen to your character?  Is there anything you don't want to read/see in the thread?: Light non-con/dub-con/forced pleasure
Is there any specific non-sexual content you want to happen involving your character?  :  This very much depends on where the story goes

Did you have a background for him wander?

Looks good Flying Tengu, if you'd like to do a sheet up we can probably add her in before too long.

[Flying Tengu]

Here's a sheet for Danni!  I took the +10xp option, since part of Danni's think is that she doesn't have money.  Now, I just need a picture...

Still working on my character, as given the WIP spoiler tag... I'll hopefully be able to continue on with him later today, I've been working on his character sheet before filling in other things, working off the general concept I gave above. As things stand, I'm going for a burly Zabrak. His skills and xp spends are a little up in the air before I can finalise his backstory a bit more.

As a question of setting, what year is your rp set in?

I can build a better timeline of my Zabrak's life knowing that, of which will form a nice background. :)

[ererruz]

How many players do you need, PerpetuallyAnnoyedCleric?

[PixelatedPixie]

I don't know that I settled on a specific year, just post-Battle of Yavin but before the destruction of the second Death Star.  Probably fairly immediately after the Battle of Yavin, 1 or 2 ABY at most.

I am aiming for 4-5, so if you want to toss in a concept ererruz there is potentially room.

[ererruz]

I'd like to play a Zeltron, but, given that they don't have any official stats yet... what do you think about using the ones from here? Or, if you don't want to include any unofficial material (which is understandable), would it be okay to just use Falleen for stats (fromy Fly Casual)? They're also a race with Pheromones, they lack Empathy, but that can be imitated if I take Sense Force power :)

As for the concept, thinking of a young, kind of naive, but (overly) confident, charming noble who's a great duelist, both with words and swords. In game terms, Mystic/Makashi Duelist, with high Presence and some Cunning, will dip into Sense and Influence powers for sure, and, given time and experience, might pick up Battle Meditation.

[PixelatedPixie]

I would prefer to avoid using anything unofficial, due to previous bad experiences.  But a reskinned Falleen as a Zeltron is fine.

Got it. I'll use Falleen stats then :)

[Flying Tengu]

Found a picture I like, just need to make a few modifications to it!

[PixelatedPixie]

I somehow missed your sheet Flying Tengu, sorry, I didn't mean to ignore you.  I will probably introduce the new characters together, so it may be a short wait to get you involved IC. 

[Captain Whitebread]

Do the characters HAVE to be Force sensitive?

I have a tendency to play against type and usually play underdogs.

[wander]

I'm still struggling a lil bit on stupid things, like deciding a good name for my character. I'll push on anyway with other elements and see if a good name may hit once I start to get more a cohesive vision on my guy, though otherwise don't wait for me as I can see me taking a few days to sort my guy out. I'll likely PM when I'm ready and see when would be a good time to jump in if still welcome.

[Metro Mech]

If you are looking for another player and are willing to teach I would be happy to join. I will in my off time be researching more about the game but if you are full I understand.

[PixelatedPixie]

I am going to close this thread and PM those recruited, thank you for your interest though everyone.

Captain Whitebread

...the listed requirement is a requirement yes.

Metro Mech

I am probably not up for teaching at the moment, thank you though and best of luck.
