Character Creation and Discussion

[Telsij]

Okay for those interested I have the mechanics done and a rough background in mind. Lets see how this goes for approval. Been a while since i plaied 2ed So not 100% on my math what with the racial special ability.

Tiktuk | Young Jedi...

I'm totally new to D6 Star wars, but from what I understand so far, since we are playing 1st ed not 2nd ed, you may be over-complicating your skills.

Yeah, unfortunately I too think that's the case -- while I like a lot of the (A) engineering skills generally -- as with civil/industrial engineering, for example, IIRC requiring not only computer programming and demolition, but bureaucracy and what not, 1E is before that time. (One of the Advanced skills I house-ruled was Hyperdrive engineering, which called for Astrogation prerequisites in addition to TEC-based ones). Similarly, more recent nonD6-converted powers like Force Jump are also post 1E (which relied only on Enhance Attribute), re: those though, will be interested to see how MIB rules!

Though I really like the concept of a Force Sensitive Jawa, I believe that because the Young Jedi Force dice come from attributes during character creation that the Force skills cannot be bumped up using the starting skill dice, through MIB can confirm that for sure.  We are looking for an imprisoned Jedi after all, so there's that angle, but I don't know that the Jawa would be as powerful as he is and go unnoticed?

Also! Nice "creepy" character portrait -- your Jawa isn't wearing the mask, eh? I think you're also more or less "free" of the species MIN/MAX within reason. As Rahullu reminded me, I that came into play in 2E.
