The Star Wars Roleplaying Game is a tabletop role-playing game gear up in the Star Wars universe, outset published by Fantasy Flight Games in 2012. It consists of three different standalone games, each one is separate themed experience:^[one]

• Star Wars: Edge of the Empire ^[two] (for playing bounty hunters, colonists, explorers, hired guns, smugglers, or technicians).^[1]

• Star Wars: The Strength Awakens (set prior to the events of the third Star Wars trilogy)^[iii]
• Star Wars: Rise of the Separatists (Set during the Clone Wars, players can be Jedi, clone troopers and fifty-fifty work for the Separatists)^[four]

Development [edit]

Previous Star Wars collectible card and roleplaying game publisher Wizards of the Coast declined to renew their licence in 2010 after 11 years.^[five] At Gen Con 2011 Fantasy Flight Games appear they had acquired the licence from Lucasfilm Ltd., and at the following Gen Con announcing Star Wars: Border of the Empire for 2013, Star Wars: Age of Rebellion for 2014, and Star Wars: Strength and Destiny for 2015, while releasing Star Wars: Border of the Empire Beta and Star Wars: Border of the Empire Beginner Game later in the same year. These releases revealed that the new RPG was based on Jay Petty'due south Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 3rd edition, with the dice becoming the narrative dice organisation ^{[2] : 315}

Age of Rebellion 's beta version was released in October 2013, a beginner set released on Apr 25, 2014,^[6] and the final version of the game, the Age of Rebellion core rulebook, released on July 3, 2014.^[7] The tertiary line of products, Star Wars: Force and Destiny, for playing Jedi characters, was released in beta in September 2014. In August 2018, the sourcebook Rise of the Separatists, set during the Clone Wars,^[viii] it was released May 9, 2019.^[9]

Fantasy Flying initially drew criticism for releasing a beta version, making people pay twice, and for the actress expense of the unusual custom dice; merely reviews later launch were enthusiastic virtually the dice, with Game Informer maxim "In practice, this system offers tremendous flexibility to let the players to participate in the storytelling process, rather than only waiting for the GM to respond after a dice roll. The players talk together most how to translate a roll of the die, and shape the results to make the well-nigh exciting story. It also speaks strongly to the cinematic nature of the Star Wars universe; characters in the movies frequently succeed or fail along with potent side effects."^[one] and Penny Arcade saying "This dice system is designed to facilitate awesome storytelling and it worked great!"^[10]

Setting [edit]

The first three installments of the Star Wars Roleplaying Game are gear up within the time period of the original Star Wars trilogy. Star Wars: Edge of the Empire is set shortly after the destruction of the first Death Star, and deals with characters on the fringes of galactic space. Age of Rebellion is set around the time of The Empire Strikes Back, and allows players to join the Rebellion. Like Border of the Empire, Forcefulness and Destiny is prepare shortly after the destruction of the outset Death Star and the death of Obi-Wan Kenobi, when the forcefulness sensitives and Jedi slowly offset to re-emerge in hopes of rebuilding the Jedi Order.

The Rise of the Separatists Era sourcebook is set during the Clone Wars era at the beginning of the Palpatine regime. Players can be Jedi, clone troopers or Separatists.

The Dawn of Rebellion Era sourcebook is gear up during the waning of the Republic and the ascendance of the Empire. Information technology deals with the events at the time of Rogue I, in which the Rebellion is divided into factions and is opposing the Empire just as it is consolidating its power.

The Force Awakens Beginner Game is gear up during the current era depicted in Star Wars: The Forcefulness Awakens, with the risk provided taking identify but before the events of the movie.

Game system [edit]

Characteristics [edit]

The Characteristics are Brawn (Physical Power), Agility (Physical Precision), Intellect (Intelligence and "Book Smarts"), Cunning (Wisdom and "Street Smarts"), Willpower (Endurance and Focus), and Presence (Charisma and Attractiveness).^{[11] : fifteen–sixteen [12] : 22–23 [thirteen] : 24–25} Feature levels (called "ratings") range from a minimum Rating of ane to a maximum Rating of 6, although there is a ceiling of 5 during character cosmos. Each character race has different base Characteristic ratings, though additional ratings in each attribute tin can be gained during or later on grapheme creation, at the cost of the value of the next level times x. (Case: Raising a grapheme's Brawn Rating from two to 3 would toll three ten 10, or 30 points). The character can besides unlock the Talent Dedication for 25 points, which grants a +1 Feature increase, in one case per career Specialization Tree (see Talents, beneath).

Strain is a derived characteristic based on a Racial minimum plus the character's Willpower that determines how much physical, mental or emotional stress a character tin take before collapsing. Wound Points are a derived characteristic based on a Racial minimum plus the graphic symbol's Brawn that determines how much concrete impairment a graphic symbol can take before passing out or slipping into a coma. Soak is the protection granted by the habiliment or armor a character is wearing and/or the character'south natural toughness. Defence is resistance to melee and/or ranged weapon attacks and is granted by armor or certain Talents.

Templates [edit]

After determining attributes, the player designs their character using a Species Template.^{[11] : 43–53 [12] : 51–60 [13] : 54–63} Each species has different racial characteristic minimums and maximums. Each Species besides has Special Abilities, a free level in a skill (up to a maximum of Level 2 at creation) and/or a Talent. As an example, Humans^{[note ane]} have a species template that has a score of 2 in all Characteristics and can take any two different not-career skills of the player's option at the start of play. Characters can as well pay points to increase starting wealth (a baseline of 500 credits / point) or Special Abilities.

The player so picks a Career (similar Technician or Ace), which grants 8 Career Skills (of which the player must cull iv). Then they pick 1 of the iii or more Specializations of that Career (like the Smuggler career'southward Pilot, Scoundrel and Thief specializations from the core rulebook^{[11] : eighty} ). Each Specialization grants 4 more Career Skills (of which the player must selection 2), and a Specialization Tree, which grants specialization-based Talents.^{[notation 2]}

All the Career Skills listed under the character's Career and Specialization (whether chosen or not during character creation) tin be bought for a flat bespeak cost. The non-Career skills cost an extra 5 points per level. The Career Skills chosen by the player from the career and specialization lists are granted their first level gratuitous during initial grapheme creation, but cost the same as other Career Skills when buying higher levels.

Characters cannot buy a new Career simply may buy boosted Specializations - whether they are under their Career or not. However, if a character wishes to buy another specialization, information technology costs less for ane under their chosen Career than for one nether another Career. For example, the Engineer Career in the core Age of Rebellion book narrows downward to the Mechanic, Saboteur, and Scientist specializations. An Engineer - Mechanic who wants to add together the Engineer'southward Scientist specialization would pay less than if they wanted to add the Ace's Airplane pilot specialization. The character can fifty-fifty take a Specialization from one of the other games like the Border of the Empire Technician's Slicer ^{[note 3]} or Bounty Hunter'south Martial Artist specializations.

The Universal "Careers" are generic Specializations that can exist used by any of the core games. Some allow characters from one game to crossover to the others. Force Sensitive Exile and Force Sensitive Emergent allow veteran characters from Border of the Empire and Age of Rebellion respectively to become Forcefulness users and apply the Force and Destiny game rules. Recruit allows Edge of the Empire characters to cross over to the more idealistic Age of Rebellion campaigns. They toll the same every bit if they were Specializations under the character's existing Career, making them cheaper and more effective than buying a Specialization under a dissimilar Career.

Skills [edit]

At that place are iii types of skills in the Star Wars Roleplaying Game. Knowledge skills cover intellectual pursuits, Gainsay skills comprehend confrontational deportment, and General skills cover non-combat deportment.^{[xi] : 101 [12] : 113 [13] : 111}

The game'southward rules presume that all characters have all the game system'southward skills at "zero level" if they do not take a level in it. The character'due south default skill level is equal to the skill'due south governing Characteristic score. "Default" skill rolls utilize one greenish 8-sided Ability die per Characteristic level.

Purchasing a level in a skill (called a "rank") makes the graphic symbol an expert in it. Skills have a maximum rank of v (just a ceiling of Rank 2 during character cosmos). Skill ranks can exist purchased for v points times the next level (five x Lvl) for Career skills, with the additional cost of 5 additional points (5 10 Lvl [+v] = Toll) for non-Career skills. For instance, buying Rank ane in Athletics skill would cost no points if it was a selected career or specialization skill during graphic symbol creation, 5 points (5 x 1 = 5) if it was a non-selected career skill during or after character creation, and 10 points (5 10 ane [+5] = 10) if it was a non-career skill. Buying Rank 2 would cost 10 points (5 x two = ten) for a selected or non-selected career skill and 15 points (5 ten two [+5] = 15) for a non-career skill.

Regular skill rolls substitute a yellow 12-sided Proficiency dice for a light-green 8-sided Power die per skill rank. For instance, a character with a Rank of 4 in computers skill and a Rating of 5 in their Intellect attribute would roll 4 Proficiency dice and one Power die rather than five Ability dice. Information technology can also add green Ability die if the character's skill level is higher than their aspect level. Permit's say that in the example in a higher place the graphic symbol instead had a Rank of 5 in computers skill and a Rating of 4 in their Intellect aspect. They would still roll four Proficiency dice and one Power die rather than five Proficiency dice until the character's Intellect rating is raised to 5. Blue half dozen-sided Heave Dice are added for advantageous events or if some other character is helping the player character with the attempt.

Skill rolls are opposed by rolling a pool of purple viii-sided Difficulty Die. Depending on the complexity of the task the character is attempting, it could range from ane Difficulty die for an Easy complexity job (picking a keyhole lock with a lockpick set) to v Difficulty dice for a Formidable complexity task (smashing a complex vault door lock without knowing the schematics). Black 6-sided Setback Dice are added for disadvantageous events

If the character is being opposed by an NPC antagonist while performing a chore, then the dice pool is based on the NPC's opposing skill. The Difficulty Pool is created by calculation a royal Difficulty Die for each green Ability Die the NPC has in the skill and a carmine 12-sided Challenge Die for each yellow 12-sided Proficiency Dice the NPC has in the skill. Black Setback Dice are added if some other NPC is helping the antagonist NPC to hinder the thespian character'due south attempt.

Talents [edit]

Talents are advantages that add flavor to a grapheme and either grant bonuses, benefit allies, remove penalties during play, or penalize adversaries.^{[xi] : 127–145 [12] : 139–159 [13] : 135–153} They cost experience points to buy, and must be unlocked in the order they appear on a diagram called a "Specialization Tree" (similar to those constitute in video games such as Star Wars: The Old Republic)^{[11] : 93 [12] : 103} .^{[13] : 103} The further downwardly the diagram, the more than powerful (and expensive)^{[notation 4]} the Talents become. This ways that sometimes a actor has to purchase Talents that they practise not want or require in order to get to desired talents further downwardly the same branch. All the same, information technology avoids having the graphic symbol cherry-choice the more than powerful talents and leaving the residue. The player can simply purchase a selection on the tree once (just can sometimes buy it over again if a higher level appears lower down on the diagram).

Each Career Specialization has its own Specialization Tree. Each Tree has four columns and v rows, for a full of twenty Talents each.^{[xi] : 93 [12] : 103 [thirteen] : 103} When the tree is all filled out, the character cannot purchase any more talents from it. If the actor wishes to obtain more than Talents for their character, then they must buy a new Career Specialization and begin filling out that Specialization Tree.

Talents are split into two groups. "Passive" talents (which have a blue code) denote abilities that are considered ever on and can be used for the entire duration of the session. "Active" talents (which accept a red lawmaking) announce abilities that require a difficulty scroll to plow on prior to utilize, and in some cases can but be used a limited number of times in a given session. Some talents have levels and can exist purchased more in one case. The talent's levels stack, even if they are bought for dissimilar amounts of experience points.

Example: Grit is a passive Talent that grants a bonus of +ane per level to the character'southward Strain. Allow'due south say a player bought their character iii levels of Grit from 1 Specialization Tree at a total cost of 45 points (10+15+xx = 45). So they bought one level of Grit on another Specialization Tree at a cost of 10 points. They would cumulatively stack as four levels of Dust (granting a total of +iv to Strain).

Disadvantages [edit]

Disadvantages can exist taken during grapheme creation to offset point costs.

Edge of the Empire has Obligation, something the character is forced or compelled to exercise.^{[11] : 29, 38–43} The number of Player Characters in the grouping sets the base disadvantage number. The smaller the group, the larger the Disadvantage level that each player must bear. The Game Master rolls percentile die at the beginning of play to see which grapheme's disadvantage will be used during the session. The character can pay off the disadvantage with feel points in gameplay.

Historic period of Rebellion has Duty, something the character wants to exercise.^{[12] : 46–50} Levels of Duty can be cashed in for Contribution levels, which establish the individual or group's rank in the Rebellion. Information technology likewise can be used to grant gifts of equipment, vehicles, or resources.

Force and Destiny has Morality, which governs how close the Force-using character is to slipping over to the Night Side.^{[13] : 48–53} Unlike the other 2 games, Morality is governed by a character'due south actions during gameplay. Conflict is generated whenever they cull to perform a morally questionable action or choose to use the Dark Side of the Force in order to power their abilities. Morality cannot be 'bought' with XP, instead a thespian wanting to modify their alignment must actually role-play a more aggressive character to turn Night, or perform acts of compassion to become a paragon of the Light.

Motivation is the character's guiding principle. In the contemptuous Edge of the Empire, it is an Ambition, Cause or Relationship.^{[11] : 94–97} In the idealistic Age of Rebellion, it is a Quest, Belief or Personal Connectedness.^{[12] : 104–108} In Force and Destiny it is an Appetite, Cause or Faith.^{[13] : 105–108} If the histrion uses the character's Motivation during gameplay, they get an experience point bonus.

Dice [edit]

Using the storytelling dice from their earlier Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay (3rd edition) as its basis, Fantasy Flight Games tweaked the design a fiddling to make a dice puddle arrangement that was more evocative of the Star Wars universe. It renamed the dice types,^{[note v]} uses vi-, 8-, and 12-sided die rather than 6-, 8-, and ten-sided dice, abandons the "exploding die" mechanic,^{[note 6]} and removes the Stance dice.

The narrative die organisation uses seven different types of dice.^{[two] : 315 [i] [eleven] : 10–11 [12] : 17–xix [13] : 17–19} They apply symbols rather than numbers and are interpreted on two axes: Succeed / Fail and Lucky / Unlucky. You can succeed, merely have negative complications or fail but have positive advantages.

• Ability [green 8-sided die]: Represents the character's characteristic level (1 to 6 die). It is used if they are using a skill to perform a chore that they are untrained in.
• Proficiency [yellow 12-sided dice]: Represents the character's skill. Every rank of skill (i to 5 die) substitutes a Proficiency die for an Ability die.
• Boost [light blueish half-dozen-sided die]: Used to aid a skill whorl due to advantageous factors (like being assisted past an ally).
• Difficulty [regal 8-sided dice]: Used to oppose a skill roll by how difficult the chore is (normally rated from one to v dice). They are also used if the task is being opposed past an untrained character and is based on their Attribute level (1 to 6 dice).
• Challenge [red 12-sided die]: Used when a skill ringlet is being opposed by a skilled character with ranks in a skill. Each rank of Proficiency (1 to 5 dice) replaces a Difficulty dice with a Challenge dice.
• Setback [black half-dozen-sided dice]: Used to penalize a skill whorl due to disadvantageous factors.
• Forcefulness [white 12-sided die]: Used to determine the number of Destiny Points that go into the Destiny Puddle at the beginning of play. Also used for Luck rolls and the use of Strength Powers.
• Percentile [x-sided dice]: Used to roll on the Critical Injury and Critical Hit charts. They are of unlike colors, ane representing the tens digit and the other representing the ones digit (e.g., "0" and "7" is 7, "3" and "five" is 35, and "0" and "0" is 100). They are non included in the narrative dice set up, but are easily obtainable.

The facets contain either a bare or one of 6 results.^{[two] : 315 [11] : 12–14 [12] : xix–21 [13] : 20–21} Success and Failure are positive and negative results on the Succeed / Fail axis. If the sum is positive, the action succeeds, but if the sum is neutral or negative, then it fails. Reward and Threat are positive and negative results on the Lucky / Unlucky axis. If the sum is positive, the activity has positive side-effects (like skill bonuses or lucky breaks). If the sum is negative, then the activeness has negative side-effects (like penalties and complications). Triumph (only found on Proficiency die) is a Disquisitional Success that counts as a success result and can unlock special abilities or crusade critical damage in gainsay. Despair (simply establish on Challenge dice) is a Critical Failure that counts as a failure result and also causes a powerful negative effect (e.g., a firearm runs out of ammo or a vehicle breaks down during a chase). Triumphs and Despairs do not abolish each other out and are non canceled by surplus Advantages and Threats.

Destiny Tokens [edit]

Destiny Tokens are small round pieces of paper-thin that are black on one side and white on the other.^{[11] : 27–28 [12] : 34–36 [xiii] : 35–37} They represent the party's puddle of Destiny Points. They are granted based on Force Die rolls at the starting time of each session. Each player in the party rolls a Strength Die and the number of White and Black dots are added upward. The Player Characters' political party gets the tokens of one color and the game master gets the remaining tokens of the opposing color. White Tokens (The Low-cal Side of the Force) are for the Good Guys. Blackness Tokens (The Dark Side of the Force) are for the Bad Guys. The party'due south amalgamation determines which color they get. (Although players' characters begin play firmly on the Light Side - or are at least redeemable to it - in that location is a possibility that they could slide, fall or even leap into the Dark Side during play.)

A Destiny Point can exist spent to award a bonus die for a character'due south activity (by adding a dark-green Ability Die or converting an Power Die into a xanthous Proficiency Dice), or inflict a penalty die to the opposition's effort (past adding a purple Difficulty Die or converting a Difficulty Die into a crimson Challenge Die). Every time a Destiny Point is used by the party or the game master, one of their Destiny Tokens is flipped over to change its colour. This flipped token can now be added to the opposite side'due south pool. Players have to decide whether they want to spend a Destiny Point that may exist needed later or not spend information technology to limit the game principal's ability to aid a named NPC antagonist or penalize a player character.

Destiny Points can also be used to change a situation or abolish out or re-gyre an unfavorable result like a fatal hit or pivotal skill-check failure.

Example: "I'm drawing my pistol..." "Did you retrieve to retrieve your pistol when y'all savage down that hillside last scene?"

Combat Rules [edit]

The beginning step in combat is to figure out Initiative,^{[eleven] : 198–200 [12] : 210–212 [13] : 204–206} which is figured by making a Absurd or Vigilance skill cheque. The results (best to worst) indicate the order in which the characters and their adversaries act.

The Gainsay skills are Brawl, Melee, Lightsaber, Ranged (Light), Ranged (Heavy), and Gunnery.^{[eleven] : 204–206 [12] : 131–133, 216–219 [13] : 139–141} The close combat skills - Brawl and Melee - use Brawn and the ranged combat skills - Ranged (Calorie-free), Ranged (Heavy), and Gunnery - use Agility.

• Brawl covers unarmed gainsay.
• Melee covers armed gainsay.
  • Lightsaber covers armed combat with a Lightsaber or similar focused energy weapon (similar Stage Daggers or Lightwhips). Anyone can acquire to use a Lightsaber, but a character has to be a Forcefulness Sensitive in lodge to wield it effectively. Lightsabers use Brawn^{[note 7]} as its base of operations aspect (like all melee weapons). Withal, certain Force and Destiny Talents can use Agility or even Intellect or Presence as a base.
• Ranged (Light) are pocket-size ranged weapons that can be carried and fired with one hand.
• Ranged (Heavy) are large ranged weapons that need to be carried by ii hands.
• Gunnery covers pintle-mounted or turreted ranged weapons, commonly mounted on vehicles and starships. It also covers fixed-firing on-board weapon systems similar a starfighter'due south laser cannons, ion cannons, and proton torpedo launchers.

Gainsay modifiers are calculated using Range Bands (the approximate distance the character is from the target).^{[11] : 208–209 [11] : 221–222 [13] : 213–216} The hand-to-manus skills (Brawl, Melee, and Lightsaber) can only be used at Engaged range. The ranged combat weapons are used at Close, Medium, Long, and Extreme range (the longer the range, the greater the Difficulty rank). Characters with a ranged weapon suffer a Difficulty penalisation when in Engaged range because their target is besides shut for the character to aim properly. Characters operating a gunnery weapon or weapon station while in Engaged range cannot utilize it until they defeat or drive off their opponent.

Not-Player Characters in Combat [edit]

In combat the player characters have 3 kinds of adversaries: Minions, Rivals, and Nemeses.^{[11] : 389–390 [12] : 409–410 [13] : 399–400}

Minions are "nameless individuals who provide muscle to flesh out encounters"^{[eleven] : 389} - like 'Mooks' in Feng Shui. They have group Soak and Wound Threshold ratings. When a graphic symbol attacks them, the Minion grouping subtracts their Soak from information technology. Every time the impairment exceeds the wound threshold, a minion "succumbs" and the group loses a member.^{[note viii]} If the damage doesn't exceed the threshold, the minion is fine and can keep fighting. If an private minion takes a Critical Injury, they are incapacitated; an expanse-outcome attack on a minion group that inflicts a Critical Injury incapacitates ane minion per Critical Injury scored.

Example: A Rebel soldier fires a blaster pistol at a squad of four Stormtroopers, which have a Soak of 5 and a Wound Threshold of five. If he scored 10 Damage, it would do (10-five-v = 0) Wounds, and would take no effect (since no Damage got through their Soak and Wound Threshold). If he scored 11 Damage, it would do (eleven-5-5 = 1) Wounds, and would incapacitate i of the Stormtroopers. If he scored 15 Impairment, information technology would exercise (fifteen-5-5 = v) Wounds, and would still merely incapacitate one Stormtrooper (considering their base Wound Threshold is 5). Scoring 16 to twenty Impairment would incapacitate 2 Stormtroopers (because it inflicted six to 10 Wounds, which is equal to 2 Stormtroopers' worth of Damage).

Rivals are named adversaries that are "more unsafe than minions but still junior to well-nigh Thespian Characters".^{[xi] : 390} They act as minor antagonists and/or lieutenants to major antagonists.^{[annotation nine]} They suffer Wounds and Critical Injuries normally, but can die if their Wound Threshold is exceeded.

A Nemesis is the reverse of the character, the Big Bad Guy to their Adept Guy^{[note 10] [note eleven]}(or vice-versa for Nighttime Side characters). They are usually more powerful than the grapheme in order for them to be a claiming - not just for the character, but for the whole political party. They are treated like player characters when they fight, make skill checks, and take damage. The main thing that separates a Nemesis from a Rival is that they are the major antagonist. They are the dragon in the cave, the villain in the 3rd act of the screenplay, or the endboss of the video game.

Minions and Rivals do not accept Strain. Instead, the Strain inflicted is converted into Wounds. Minions cannot use abilities or invoke effects that utilise Strain, but Rivals can. When Rivals use abilities or invoke effects that suffer Strain, it is converted into Wounds. Since Minions and Rivals don't take Strain, it tin can't be recovered. In dissimilarity, Nemeses take and recover Strain like Actor Characters do.

A group of Minions can't have ranks in skills individually. However, they tin attain ranks in skills depending on how many of them work together. The more Minions that are incapacitated, the lower the grouping'south maximum skill rank will become. Rivals and Nemeses accept ranks in skills like player characters and can gain Boost dice or inflict Setback dice when they work together.

1. ^ "Humans" in the Star Wars universe, like in most fantasy and science-fiction worlds, are a singled-out species. (The man-like Corellian and Mandalorian species, like the Vilani and Zhodani in Traveller, are classified as Human races in the game). There are also humanoid (human-appearing) species, like the Chiss, Twi'lek, and Umbarans, which each take their ain species templates. The xenophobic Empire refers to such races as "near-humans", treating them just slightly improve than the "non-human" (inhuman-appearing) conflicting species.
2. ^ The Border of the Empire's Technician-Mechanic and Age of Rebellion's Engineer-Mechanic specializations take the same Specialization Copse. However, they have dissimilar career skills to choose from to describe their dissimilar grapheme concepts.
3. ^ In the Star Wars Expanded Universe, a "Slicer" is a technician trained in breaking into secured reckoner databases.
4. ^ The cost of a Talent depends on which row it occupies on the Tree. It costs a multiple of 5 points per row (starting time at 5 points per Talent (1st row x five points)) on the starting time row downwardly to 25 points per Talent (5th row x 5 points) on the fifth and final row).
5. ^ WFRP(3e) used Characteristic (Ability), Expertise (Proficiency), Challenge (Difficulty), Fortune (Boost), and Misfortune (Setback) dice. There were likewise "Stance" dice: a Bourgeois dice was added if the graphic symbol used a low-risk approach and a Reckless die was added if the character was taking a loftier-risk arroyo.
6. ^ Allows the player to re-roll the die if an "exploding" outcome comes up (and tin echo this if the actor rolls consecutive "exploding" results). The additional results are and so added to the full. The "exploding" result is usually the highest digit on a polyhedral die (similar "6" on a six-sided die).
7. ^ Originally the early Lightsaber-wielding characters in Edge of the Empire and Age of Rebellion used either Brawn or Agility as a base. This was subsequently clarified to just Brawn when Force and Destiny was released.
8. ^ Considering Star Wars uses Fantasy Violence, Minions don't "die" - they only give a shrill Wilhelm scream and fall over.
9. ^ Example: Greedo, 1 of Jabba the Hutt's limb-breaking goons, would be considered a Rival to Han Solo. His motivation is that he's at that place to collect a debt (and maybe squeeze some extra credits out of Han while he's at information technology). Too bad he was greedy and stupid enough to threaten Han with a blaster. He might take eventually been used as a recurring foil to either frustrate and obstruct Han or threaten and motivate him without straight involving his boss (Solo's later Nemesis).
10. ^ Example 1: Boba Fett, a relentless, nigh-unkillable bounty hunter. He is considered a Nemesis because he's dangerous and competent in his ain right and is more than than a match for well-nigh of his bounties.
11. ^ Example 2:Jabba the Hutt, an interstellar crimelord who rules Tatooine. Han Solo foolishly shot 1 of Jabba'southward thugs in a public place and then skipped out on paying his debts. Jabba's motivation is that he wants to punish Solo for making him await weak while making an example of him to deter future deadbeats. Jabba isn't very dangerous past himself, simply he has the networking and resources to send Minions and Rivals after Han. Non but that, he has the wealth and influence to buy out the Purple compensation on Solo's caput and hire Boba Fett to deliver Solo packed in carbonite.
