Be sure to read and follow the community guidelines.

OpenStar Wars FFGPublic4 / weekSeuss
Flashpoint: Any situation or area with the potential for a sudden outbreak of conflict.

Brak Sector: A sector of space that serves as a staging area for Imperial Navy missions into the Outer Rim territories. Rebel forces have made substantial gains in this former mining sector.

Imperial Objective: Eliminate Rebel forces by any means necessary.

Brak sector is an area loaded with competing interests, each providing opportunities for adventures. Whether the characters are smugglers working for a local crimeboss, scouts looking for a big score, or Rebel heroes bravely fighting the Empire, there is room for them in Brak Sector - presenting an area of space where characters can make a real difference, making them the heroes of the sector.

In the waning days of what history would record as the Golden Age, of not only the Republic but the Jedi, scouts exploring a relatively unsettled and sparsely explored region in the Expansion Region, discover an abundance of mineral and energy resources in the Brak Sector. The Lant Mining Corporation, established by Darman Lant as an interplanetary mining and refining company with operations in the Inner Rim worlds, soon gained enough economic strength and prestige to quickly move and petition the Republic for the development of the sector...

From: Tomi M'rris, Chief of Operations - Bakrana, Lant Mining Corporation
Subject: Mining / Extraction Operation Disruptions and Contractor Disappearances

Dear Sir,

This with regard to my recent report regarding the current mining and extraction disruption of operations and the unexplained disappearances of a number of personnel and subcontractors. Spurred by rumor and stories from our native guides of an 'ancient power' it is become increasingly difficult to motivate the workforce to continue mining and extraction activities. Suggest sending and / or contracting investigators, scouts, hunters, or security forces to investigate and resolve the issue of the disappearances and put to rest the camp gossip so that work may continue.

Regards,
Tomi M'rris
Chief of Operations - Bakrana
Lant Mining Corporation

What can a new player expect?
As stated on the Game Details, the campaign will be set during the early years of the Empire's Rise and Dark Times and lead into the Rebellion Era. The campaign will take place in the Brak sector, an area loaded with competing interests, each providing opportunities for adventures. Whether the characters are smugglers working for a local crimeboss, scouts looking for a big score, or Rebel heroes bravely fighting the Empire, there is room for them in Brak Sector - presenting an area of space where characters can make a real difference, making them the heroes of the sector.. I'm hoping for a fast and intense game steeped in the traditions of the Star Wars we all love. My aim is to encourage PC free-will and give ample opportunities for PCs to make their own meaningful choices so that the player can pursue their own goals and agendas. This adventure will serve as a prequal of sorts, introducing the very earliest days of the Brak Sector during the time of the High Republic (roughly 100 years prior to Episode 1) where the Jedi are still at their height.

My intent is to tell a good story, encourage relationships, whether with other PCs or NPCs that will develop the game unto itself both for and against your desires - making interactions the key. To aide and encourage in the development of relationships, I intend to keep the player groups small in number (at least initially to perhaps 4 up to maybe 6).

I want to see originality in character creation. Fantasy Flight Games offers many unique talents, specializations, and careers at your disposal, so bring out that fascinating character concept you have been sitting on. I want characters that the players are passionate about - leave it to me to figure out a way to work you into the story of the game. For this initial adventure I would prefer to limit those careers found in the Edge of the Empire, Force and Destiny, and supplements and NOT Age of the Rebellion.
Player Requirements:
You Must be able to Post Daily (Weekdays). I will expect replies to all posts within a 24 hour time period at least 4 times a week (meaning I expect little activity during the weekend) and no more than 5 times a week (meaning more shorter posts may occur during combat or high action moments in the story). Please do not apply if you know or feel this to daunting of a task.

You Must Commit to a Quality Post. Meaning no one-liners or a 5 page rehash of what everyone else has posted. We are running the game in written form so grammar and spelling are important and should be readable. That being said, it is a game and not a novel …I’m not concerned about the post being perfect and with the posting schedule you will have your good days and bad. The content of your post is what is important not the length. Look at the information provided in the post through your characters eyes and the length will look after yourself. Make your post entertaining and enjoyable, not just informative, by getting in character. All posts should have direction, and a beginning – middle – and end. Reference or paraphrase other PC dialogue wherever possible, I’d like to see minimal quoting. Basically I want to know what is happening from your character’s point of view – what he/she is thinking and feeling, what he/she is seeing. Good role-play will be rewarded, whether by extra XP or other forms.

I will be using Fantasy Flight Games Star Wars game line rules, most likely with some variant rules – that as they arise will be posted to the Campaign Wiki that is on the game boards.

Knowledge of the setting and even access to the books would be helpful. If you are genuinely interested and are sure that you can meet all the commitments PM me or email to soccerseus@gmail.com and we will certainly work something out.

These commitments I realize are asking for a lot, and will not go without being rewarded. Rewards may come in the form of additional Experience Points, Destiny Points, or perhaps story awards. For example, perhaps you decide that your character wants to make unique 'improvements' to his armor and personalize it to his specs, build his own droid/ship, or train/use a unique weapon or fighting style. Clues and steps towards accomplishing these goals can be another means of reward.

Most importantly …HAVE FUN!!
Character Requirements: There are very few limitations on what characters will be accepted. Ideally, I would hope that the majority of players will choose to play Fringe (Edge of the Empire) or Jedi (Force and Destiny, Rise of the Separatists, Collapse of the Republic) characters. *See also the fan made For Light and Life campaign guide posted to this game's forum for other unique Jedi templates* ALSO, this will be a 'Knight' level adventure. After character creation the player will have 150 additional XP to spend on their character prior to the start ...

The important thing is to focus on a UNIQUE character concept that you are passionate about. It is my hope that I see all types of characters from all the careers and specializations offered and that it is a character you can develop and love.
Apply via the sites "Request to Join" feature, Private Message, or barring that email to soccerseus@gmail.com and include a bit about yourself, why you are interested in joining.

I will respond either inviting you to continue your application or declining. When you send me a concept that will fit the campaign I will ask you to develop the personality/background. We will work on refining that together and get you into the game.

The process may seem long and patience will be required. As I intend to run this campaign for a long time, patience works for me and I think you will find a more meaningful character in the end.

Oh man, wish I had more bandwidth to play right now.

But am afraid I'm at my limit at this time. Otherwise I'd absolutely be applying!

I have little doubt you'll get lots of interest, Seuss, thanks for running a game using this excellent system!

Ill look at my forces and destiny book, and see if i can come up with an original character. Im also near my bandwidth limit, but i do miss Star Wars

I'd like to join your game, it sounds like an intriguing concept.

I'd really be interested in playing a Bounty Hunter, specifically a Skip Tracer (from the No Disintergrations book.)

Sounds good Kier ... I also think I have a player interested in an Explorer - Beast Hunter so seems to be a good mix forming

RECRUITING

Due to time commitments we have had one of our players, unfortunately have to leave the game. So ...

Calling all Jedi, Force Users, and Space Wizards!

I really would like a Force User to round out the cast of characters. Anyone interested please apply as directed in the advertisement above.

This is a Knight Level game so your Jedi / Force User would be fairly advanced thus Force talents, powers, and over all use can/should be on full display.

Thank you for your interest!

I auto applied via game description section. from what i understand from how things are laid out here, that was the right thing to do? as for my character for consideration, Same name as my user name, A human force sensitive, more then likely going into the pathfinder specialization. so heavy emphasis on the seek and sense powers, weapon will be a lightsaber with a Ghostfire Chrystal and depending on how checks and character creation goes, a few other hard point goodies. let me know what you think and if this seems like a fit for your game.

RECRUITING

Due to attrition we have had some players disappear on us. So ...

Calling all Big Game Hunters, Bounty Hunters, Skip Tracers, Mercenaries, and Scoundrels!

I really would like a outdoorsy, scout, hunter type character to round out the cast. Anyone interested please apply as directed in the advertisement above.

This is a Knight Level game so your character would be fairly advanced thus talents, skills, and equipment can/should be on full display.

Thank you for your interest!

Heh ... We have been very slow out of the gate so despite 'playing' for a number of months we have barely just begun.
