CHARACTER HANDOUT #1 JEDI

THE JEDI, GUARDIANS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC ARE GONE. OR ARE THEY? AFTER
ALL YOU ARE STILL ALIVE. THE TEMPLE ON CORUSCANT HAS BEEN DESTROYED AND YOU
HAVE NOT HAD ANY CONTACT (EVEN IN THE FORCE) WITH ANY OTHER JEDI SINCE. YOU
STILL HAVE NIGHTMARES OF THAT FATEFUL DAY WHEN ORDER 66 WAS GIVEN. YOU WERE
SUPPOSED TO ACCOMPANY YOUR MASTER TO DANTOOINE TO ASSIST THE REPUBLIC
FORCES THERE, BUT AT THE LAST MINUTE YOUR MASTER SENT YOU TO THYFERRA TO
SECURE A BACTA SHIPMENT RUMOURED TO BE THREATENED BY PIRATES. YOUR DISTRUST
OF ANYONE IN THE MILITARY IS OBVIOUSLY WELL FOUNDED, YET YOU ARE WILLING TO
LET INDIVIDUALS PROVE THEM SELVES TO GAIN YOUR TRUST. YOU HAVE NOT YET PASSED
THE JEDI TRIALS TO BECOME A KNIGHT, BUT NOW OF COURSE IT IS TOO LATE. THE
COUNCIL NO LONGER EXISTS. YOU ALSO STILL HAVENT BEEN ABLE TO FIND THE
NECESSARY COMPONENTS TO BUILD YOUR LIGHT SABER THE SIGNATURE WEAPON OF A
TRUE JEDI. YOU REMEMBER MASTER YODA & MASTER KENOBI TELLING YOU TO TAKE A
JEDI FIGHTER & HEAD OUT TO THE OUTER RIM TERRITORIES AND TO LAY LOW. ON
ARRIVAL, YOU WERE SMART ENOUGH TO DITCH THAT SHIP AS IT WAS A SURE SIGN THAT A
JEDI WAS IN THE AREA. YOU LEARNED THIS QUICKLY HAVING TO DODGE AND HIDE FROM
NUMEROUS JEDI ASSASSINS IN THE EMPLOY OF THE SITH LORD VADER. IT WAS VADER
WHO YOU HOLD RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MURDER OF HUNDREDS OF JEDI INCLUDING
POSSIBLY THE GREATEST JEDI EVER. YOU ALWAYS LIKED ANAKINS SARCASM AND SKILL
WITH THE FORCE. NOW YOUR SEARCH CONTINUES HAVING TRAVELLED FROM PLANET TO
PLANET INCOGNITO LOOKING FOR OTHER JEDI COMRADES WHO MAY BE IN HIDING. IT IS A
BIT DIFFICULT WITHOUT USING YOUR FORCE ABILITIES, BUT YOU KNOW IF YOU DO, THAT
DOING SO WILL BE LIKE A BEACON TO VADERS ASSASSINS. IN ADDITION, WHEN YOU WERE
TESTED FOR MIDICHLORIDIANS IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT YOU HAD A HIGHER COUNT
THAN THE AVERAGE PADAWAN, THUS GRANTING YOU ONE ADDITIONAL FORCE POINT.
DURING YOUR TIME MOVING FROM PLANET TO PLANET IN THE SYSTEM, YOU HAVE HEARD
OF A RELIGIOUS CULT ON YLESIA OFFERING SANCTUARY AND ENLIGHTENMENT TO
ANYONE WILLING TO COME AND WORSHIP. COULD THIS BE A COVER FOR A JEDI
GATHERING? COULD IT BE A TRAP TO CAPTURE JEDI? MOST LIKELY THERE ARE SENTIENTS
REQUIRING YOURE YOUR SKILLS AND CAN BENEFIT FROM YOUR TRAINING THOUGH STILL
INCOMPLETE THAT IT MAY BE. IT MUST BE WORTH CHECKING OUT. LUCKILY YOU HAVE
JUST BARELY ENOUGH CREDITS TO BUY PASSAGE ON A FREIGHTER HEADING THAT WAY.
CHARACTER HANDOUT #2 NOBLE
UNTIL THE NEWLY SELF-APPOINTED EMPEROR DISBANDED THE REPUBLIC, YOU
SERVED AS THE RECORDER & PERSONAL SECRETARY TO ONE OF THE MANY SENATORIAL
DELEGATES REPRESENTING YOUR HOMEWORLD. YOU LIVED A PAMPERED IF NOT
SOMEWHAT SPOILED LIFESTYLE. THAT IS UNTIL YOUR SENATOR WAS FOUND GUILTY ON
TRUMPED UP CHARGES OF TREASON AGAINST THE NEWLY FORMED EMPIRE. YOU BARELY
MANAGED TO ESCAPE CORUSCANT AND HAVE BEEN RUNNING EVER SINCE. YOU KNOW
THAT ONE OF THE DATA CHIPS YOU CARRY CONTAINS INFORMATION PERTAINING TO SOME
KIND OF ALLIANCE BETWEEN THE WORLDS OF CORELLIA, CHANDRILLA, AND ALDERAAN
AND THAT YOU MUST SOMEHOW GET THIS CHIP INTO THE APPROPRIATE HANDS.
ESPECIALLY SINCE YOU FEEL THAT YOU MUST SOMEHOW AVENGE YOUR HOMEWORLD
AFTER IT WAS RECENLTY OVERRUN BY IMPERIAL FORCES AND BEING HELD AS FORCED
LABOR TO BUILD EQUIPMENT FOR THE IMPERIAL WAR MACHINE. YOU HAVE HEARD OF
LOOSELY ORGANIZED REBELLIOUS FACTIONS MAKING HIT AND RUN RAIDS TO HAMPER
THE IMPERIALS. YOU GAIN A +1 BONUS TO YOUR PERSUASION SKILL CHECKS & GAIN
ACROBATICS AS A CLASS SKILL DUE TO THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE BEEN TRAVELING
UNDERCOVER AS A JIZZ-SINGER / DANCER AND A +2 BONUS TO KNOWLEDGE
(BUREAUCRACY & POLITICS), GATHER INFORMATION, & USE COMPUTER DUE TO YOUR
INTERACTION WITH VARIOUS DELEGATES FROM ACROSS THE GALAXY DURING YOUR
SERVICE IN THE SENATE. WITH YOUR WORLD UNDER IMPERIAL THUMB, IT MAY BE
DIFFICULT TO USE YOUR FAVOR ABILITY, BUT MAYBE YOU CAN MAKE SOME NEW FRIENDS.
YOU HAVE DECIDED TO TRAVEL OUT TO THE OUTER RIM TERRITORIES TO TRY TO MAKE
CONTACT WITH ANY OF THE VARIOUS REBEL GROUPS HOPING TO JOIN UP, BUT FOR NOW
YOU ARE CONTENT WITH HEADING FOR YLESIA WHERE THERE IS A SANCTUARY OFFERED
TO THOSE SEEKING ENLIGHTENMENT. WITH YOUR PERSONALITY YOU BELIEVE YOU WILL
BE ABLE TO MAKE A LOT OF NEW FRIENDS THERE.
CHARACTER HANDOUT #3 SCOUNDREL (Spacer)
PROFESSIONAL GAMBLER, CON-MAN, BEGGAR, SMUGGLER, THIEF, PIRATE, SLOOP
RACER, YOU NAME IT, IF WAS ILLEGAL YOU PROBABLY HAVE DONE IT. THATS JUST HOW IT
HAS BEEN EVER SINCE YOU WERE AN ORPHANED KID GROWING UP ON GARRIS SHRIKES
SHIP FULL OF PIRATES. YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHO YOUR PARENTS ARE, BUT THE OLD
FEMALE WOOKIE WHO TOOK CARE OF YOU AND LOOKED OUT FOR YOU WHEN YOU RAISED
THE CAPTAINS IRE WAS PROBABLY THE CLOSEST THING TO FAMILY YOU CAN THINK OF.

SPEAK IT. YOU ALSO SEEM TO HAVE A KNACK TO PICK UP AND UNDERSTAND SEVERAL
OTHER ALIEN LANGUAGES (+1 PER INT MOD). YOUVE ALWAYS DREAMED OF BECOMING A
STARSHIP PILOT AND OWNING YOUR OWN SHIP. WHILE ON YOUR LAST CON-JOB ON
CORELLIA YOU HEARD ABOUT SOME RELIGIOUS FACTION IN THE OUTER RIM TERRITORIES
LOOKING FOR PILOTS TO SHUTTLE PASSENGERS AND CARGO FROM ORBIT TO PLANETSIDE.
HOW HARD COULD THAT BE? YOU MANAGED TO STOW AWAY ABOARD A DROID OPERATED
CARGO BARGE HEADED FOR HUTT SPACE. UNFORTUNEATELY IT WAS HALTED BY AN
IMPERIAL CUSTOMS FRIGATE AND YOU WERE DISCOVERED HIDING ABOARD ALONG WITH
SEVERAL THOUSAND CREDITS WORTH OF CONTRABAND WEAPONS, NOT TO MENTION RYL.
IF YOU HAD ONLY KNOWNYOU WERE SO CLOSE TO BEING RICH AND BUYING THAT SHIP
OF YOUR DREAMS... LUCKILY, A BAND OF ANTI-IMPERIAL REBELS ATTACKED JUST BEFORE
YOU WERE TO BE INTERROGATED. YOU MANAGED TO OVERPOWER THE GUARD DETAILED
TO WATCH YOU AND MADE YOUR WAY TO THE HANGER BAY WHERE YOU MANAGED TO

CHARACTER HANDOUT #3a SCOUNDREL-Tech

YOUVE ALWAYS HAD A SPECIAL KNACK FOR COMPUTERS. UNFORTUNEATELY YOUR
LAST JOB (WORKING FOR A LOCAL IMPERIAL MOFF) HAS BROUGHT THE UNWANTED
ATTENTION OF SEVERAL BOUNTY HUNTERS UPON YOU. MAYBE YOU SHOULDNT HAVE
SKIMMED SO MANY CREDITS OUT OF THE IMPERIAL COFFERS. WHO WOULD HAVE
THOUGHT THAT 10,000 CREDITS WOULD BE MISSED BY AN ORGANIZATION THAT HAS
MILLIONS? LUCKILY YOU WERE ABLE TO PULL ENOUGH OUT OF YOUR ACCOUNT BEFORE
IT WAS FROZEN TO PAY FOR TRANSPORT TO THE OUTER RIM TERRITORIES. YOUVE HEARD
ABOUT THE RELIGIOUS CULT ON YLESIA AND THINK IT MIGHT BE A GREAT PLACE TO LAY
LOW FOR AWHILE. BECAUSE OF YOUR EXPERTISE YOU GAIN A +2 BONUS TO COMPUTER

TO SLICE INTO THE IMPERIAL GOVERNMENT TO RETRIEVE THE CREDITS YOU HID. YOUR
BIGGEST SECRET THOUGH, ONE YOU ARE SURE WILL GET YOU VAPORIZED, IS THAT YOU
KNOW FOR A FACT (BECAUSE YOU ACCIDENTLY BACKDOORED INFO) THAT THE EMPIRE IS
CONTSRUCTING A NEW SUPER-WEAPON IN ITS HIDDEN R&D FACILITY. IF THE SCHEMATICS
YOU BRIEFLY VIEWED ARE CORRECT, YOU BELIEVE THIS THING COULD EASILY DESTROY
AN ENTIRE PLANET. PERHAPS IF YOU CAN LOCATE THE RIGHT PEOPLE YOU CAN BROKER
THIS INFORMATION FOR A DECENT PRICE. IN ADDITION YOUR MENTAL ATTRIBUTES HAVE

PART OF THE GALAXY WHICH GRANTS A +2 BONUS TO KNOWLEDGE (WORLD LORE) SKILL
CHECKS RELATING TO OUTER RIM SECTOR ONLY. YOU LOVE TRAVEL & EXPLORATION&
HAVE SEEN A LOT IN THE SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME SINCE YOU LEFT YOUR HOMEWORLD.

EXPERIENCE HAS GRANTED A +1 BONUS TO SUCH SKILL CHECKS. AS LONG AS ITS
MECHANICAL, YOU CAN BUILD IT OR FIX ITPREFERABLY WITH THE RIGHT PARTS. THE
ONE THING THAT UPSETS YOU THE MOST IS SEEING OTHER SENTIENTS BEING EXTORTED
OR ENSLAVED! YOUR LAST JOB WAS TO SURVEY A LIST OF SPECIFIC LOCATIONS FOR USE AS
POSSIBLE MILITARY STYLE BASES OF OPERATION OUT NEAR THE COPORATE SECTORBUT
WHOM YOU WERE WORKING FOR IS STILL A MYSTERY. YOU RECEIVED HALF YOUR
PAYMENT IN ADVANCE, A SUM OF 6,000CR AND WERE INSTRUCTED THAT YOU WOULD
RECEIVE THE REST UPON COMPLETION OF THE JOB. WHILE CONDUCTING A SURFACE
SURVEY ON THE PLANET MANTOOINE, (ONE OF THE TARGETS ON YOUR LIST), THE PLANET
WAS SUDDENLY ATTACKED BY IMPERIALS BY MEANS OF ORBITAL BOMBARDMENT! YOU
SURVIVED BY HIDING IN A CAVE UNTIL THE BOMBING STOPPED. SOON AFTERWARDS,
IMPERIAL TROOPERS BEGAN TO ARIVE ON THE SURFACE VIA DROPSHIPS AND SHUTTLES. IT
WAS AT THIS POINT YOU FIGURED IT WAS TIME TO GET THE HECK OUT OF THERE. SCREW
THE REST OF THE PAYMENT! IT DIDNT MATTER WHETHER OR NOT YOU WERE WORKING
LEGITIMATELY OR NOT. YOUVE HEARD AND SEEN WHAT THE IMPS DO TO PEOPLE THEY
DEEM UNLOYAL TO THE EMPIRE. FOR THIS, YOU ARE HIGHLY DISTRUSTFUL OF ANYONE
HAVING SERVED IN THE MILITARY UNITL THEY PROVE THEMSELVES. THANKFULLY, YOUR
WILDERNESS SKILLS ARE HONED, GRANTING YOU A +1 BONUS TO STEALTH & SURVIVAL

BORROW ONE OF THEIR SHUTTLES FLEEING TO THE FAR SIDE OF THE GALAXY TO THE
BACKWATER WORLD OF SULON. AFTER HIDING THE SHUTTLE IN ONE OF THE MANY VAST
WASTELAND CANYONS, YOU MANAGED TO MAKE YOUR WAY TO A SMALL VAPORATOR
FARM ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF THE CAPITAL CITY OF BARONS HED. WHILE STOPPING TO
REST AT THIS SEEMINGLY ABANDONED FARM FOR THE NIGHT, YOU DECIDED TO CHECK IT
OUT. THE BUILDINGS WERE BOARDED UP TIGHT, AND AS YOU ROUNDED A CORNER YOU
WERE FIRED UPON BY A MUMMIFIED HUMANOID WITH WHAT APPEARED TO BE A
MODIFIED WOOKIE CROSSBOW. KILLING THIS ALIEN AND SEARCHING THE BODY YOU
FOUND 2 STRANGE GREEN CRYSTALS AND SINCE THEN, EACH TIME YOU ATTEMPTED TO
SELL THEM, YOU FOUND THAT YOU JUST COULDNT BRING YOURSELF TO DO IT. UPON
REACHING THE SPACEPORT IN BARONS HED THE NEXT DAY, YOU MANAGED TO FIND WORK
ON ONE OF THE NUMEROUS CARGO FREIGHTERS, AND HAVE SO FAR AVOIDED THE RANDOM
PATROLS OF IMPERIALS WITHIN THE CITY. YOU ALSO NOTICE THAT THE IMPERIALS SEEM
TO BE CONSTRUCTING SOME KIND OF BASE ON THE FAR SIDE OF THE SPACEPORT. WHILE
ABOARD THE FREIGHTER YOU LEARNED A BIT ABOUT GUNNERY AND ASTROGATION BY
FIGHTING OFF PIRATES GRANTING YOU A +1 BONUS TO ASTROGATION SKILL CHECKS &
STARSHIP GUNNERY FEAT. WHEN THE FREIGHTER STOPPED AT YLESIA, YOU LEARNED OF A
RELIGIOUS FACTION THERE OFFERING SANCTUARY TO THOSE SEEKING ENLIGHTENMENT.
THAT SOUNDS GOOD. MAYBE YOULL HANG OUT HERE AWHILE, AT LEAST UNTIL THE IMPS
COOL OFF.
CHARACTER HANDOUT #5 SOLDIER
YOU COME FROM A FAMILY TRADITION OF MILITARY SERVICE, SO IT WAS REALLY
NO SURPRISE WHEN YOU WERE ACCEPTED INTO THE IMPERIAL NAVAL ACADEMY. YOU
GRADUATED WITH HONORS BEING IN THE TOP 10% OF YOUR CLASS AND WAS INSTANTLY
PROMOTED TO LIEUTENANT. YOUR FONDEST MEMORY OF THE ACADEMY WAS THE FLIGHT
SIMULATOR TRAINING AND THE ACTUAL FLIGHT TIME YOU GOT IN THE NEW IMPERIAL
T.I.E. FIGHTER. BUT THAT DIDNT EVEN COMPARE TO THE THREE MONTHS SPENT ON
WAYLAND AT THE IMPERIAL COMMANDO SCHOOL. YOU WERE EITHER THAT GOOD OR JUST
PLAIN LUCKY TO HAVE SURVIVED. YOU GAIN SURVIVAL AS A CLASS SKILL WITH A +1 BONUS
TO SKILL CHECKS AND +2 TO YOUR PILOT SKILL WHEN OPERATING FIGHTER CLASS SHIPS.
UNFORTUNATELY IMMEDIATELY AFTER GRADUATION, YOU WERE SENT TO HONORGH AS
YOUR FIRST ASSIGNMENT TO OVERSEE THE IMPERIAL SLAVE LABOR CAMP THERE. ONE
DAY YOU WITNESSED A NOGHRI ABOUT TO BE BLASTED IN COLD BLOOD BY ONE OF YOUR
SUPERIOR OFFICERS. THIS YOU KNEW WAS UNJUST AND INTERCEPTED THE SHOT BY
KNOCKING THE WEAPON AWAY AT THE LAST MOMENT. FOR THIS ACTION YOU WERE
STRIPPED OF RANK AND DISHONORABLY DISCHARGED FROM SERVICE AS A RESULT OF
YOUR COURT MARTIAL ON CORUSCANT. WHILE HANGING OUT IN A TAPCAFE IN THE
UNDERCITY, YOU HAVE OVERHEARD THAT MERCENARY JOBS ARE BEING OFFERED ON
YLESIA TO PROTECT THE RELIGIOUS FACTION THERE FROM OUTER RIM TERRITORY

TO YOUR CONSTANT BRAWLING AS OF LATE. SWALLOWING THE REMAINDER OF YOUR
DRINK, YOU HEAD TO THE SPACEPORT AND SPEND YOUR LAST REMAINING CREDITS FROM
