Has anyone tried statting up the characters from Star Wars: Rebels? Here are my thoughts so far:

Kanan

Obviously Human. I'm thinking his initial Career/Spec should be one of the lightsaber-based specs from F&D--maybe Sentinel/Shien Expert? That gives him skills that would be useful for a Jedi on the run--Deception, Skulduggery, Stealth, Athletics, and of course Lightsaber. Shien Expert is also useful for the various Reflect talents we see him use near the end of the episode.

However, for most of the episode he acts more like a Scoundrel than a Jedi. Skill-wise he's clearly a great shot with Ranged (Light) (for instance, he shoots down four Stormtroopers with a pistol while riding a speeder with another moving speeder in the way). He also seems to have Leadership, or at least he's comfortable giving orders and his crew, which seems to be independent, has no problems taking them. Scoundrel gives him the Ranged (Light) and seems a thematic fit as a second spec, but I'm actually leaning toward Shadow. It's cheaper (being a Sentinel spec), and gives him access to Underworld and Streetwise, as well as some sneaky Talents. More importantly, Well Rounded is only 15 points into the tree, and lets him take Ranged (Light) and Leadership as career skills.

And, of course, he has Move as a Force Power (we see him levitating the holocron at the end of the episode).

Ezra

Smuggler/Thief. Everyone's comparing him to Aladdin. He steals to survive. I'm thinking the Talents in Force Sensitive Emergent are a better fit than Force Sensitive Exile. He's also apparently got the Force power Enhance, with a couple of Control upgrades (Force Leap and Force Leap vertical). It's unlikely he realizes he's Force-Sensitive, though.

Zeb

Seems like a Hired Gun/Marauder. You could probably use a reskinned Wookiee for a Lasat, particularly since the original sketch of the Lasat was originally designed for Chewbacca. He may have Ranged (Heavy), but I don't recall seeing him actually use the weapon on his back during the episode.

Sabine

Either Engineer/Saboteur or Hired Gun/Demolitionist. I'm leaning toward Saboteur, even though I don't like the tree as much, simply for the skills. You see her dual-wielding pistols, and Engineer has Ranged (Light) as a career skill, as well as Athletics (she seems to do a lot of climbing/leaping). The spec has Coordination (landing on the back of a moving speeder, anyone?), as well as Skulduggery and Stealth (she sneaks around a lot, and uses sleight of hand to plant bombs). Too soon to say if she needs a second spec, but if so Infiltrator would be a great fit (lots of sneaky stuff, and the Infiltrator's hand-to-hand Talents make use of all the Strain-reducing/recovering Talents from Saboteur).

Hera

Pilot spec, obviously. I haven't looked deeply enough into her background to decide whether Ace/Pilot or Smuggler/Pilot would work better, but I'm leaning toward Smuggler, as she fits in very well with the crew--sneaking around and pulling the wool over the Imperial's eyes (bluffing her way onto an Imperial transport), so Deception, Skulduggery, and Streetwise would probably be very fitting.

Thoughts?

We have seen Zeb use his weapon in the Entanglement short and Episode 2 of Rebels. It's called a Bo-Rifle and, judging by the show so far, it looks like a combined Blaster Rifle and Electrostaff.

Not bat choices for them. I was thinking demolitionist was one of Sabine's trees. But Saboteur could work as well. Did any of the bounty hunter trees have any synergy with either of those? Yes I said bounty hunter, she is a Mando after all.

I haven't seen the shorts or Episode 2 yet. Is he a good shot with it, or could he be using it unskilled? It might be a good idea to pick up a ranged combatant spec as an additional spec for Zeb in that case. Maybe Bodyguard to represent the organization he was in?

I considered Bounty Hunter/Gadgeteer for Sabine right off the bat, because Mando armor. I also considered Demolitionist, but the skills of Saboteur fit her sneaky side much better. Gadgeteer would synergize--Mechanics is pretty key to both--but at least from Episode 1 I haven't seen anything to suggest she fits it yet.

You sure she's a Mando? She *may* just have the armor.

Alternately, she could be a Mando, but be a Hired Gun/Demolitionist. Not every BH uses the Career/Spec, if you'll take my meaning (i.e. not all Mandoes are bounty hunters).

She's got the helmet and pieces of the pauldrons, but that seems to be it for the amount of armor she wears.

While I'm mostly on board, one thing that the OP is doing that bothers me is assuming that because a character does something successfully it must be a career skill.

Kanan is good with a pistol. Fine, so he's got a couple ranks in it. Why does he need it as a career skill?

Sabine is a Mandalorian: the producers said so in one of their videos before Rebels was released (it may have been the Meet Sabine short).

Also, I think that she would have something that both allows physical exertion while keeping up with her explosives. I'm leaning towards Gadgeteer, but as I haven't seen all its Talents yet, I'm not sure. She's a wild card.

Really impossible to accurately do it since the writers just do what ever they want, regardless if it makes since or is possible

In the first episode Kanan is behind cover and not more then 5 meters from another stromtrooper who is also behind cover and cannot hit the stromy. Yet not one scene later while chasing Ezra on speeders is able to fire his blaster ahead of ezra and take out 3 troopers with three shots just so we can see how awesome Kanan is

Secondly since Kanan was supposadly only a padwan before order 66, I would be hesitant to give him anything from F&D

Impossible to do something perfectly doesn't mean one shouldn't try. It can be both fun and useful to do this.

I have seen far wilder inconsistencies than that at my table. And in real life, come to think of it.

F&D doesn't have formal Jedi ranks. In fact, you don't even need the characters you create with it to be Jedi. I would say a Knight has at least two specializations typically. A Padawan can easily be a character from the book and indeed when I statted up Asoka (who was a Padawan) she ended up with more than one Specialization from F&D.

I still say that just because Sabine is Mando doesn't mean she's a bounty hunter. I think she'd be a Demolitionist.

Everything I have seen Saline do smacks of demolitionist. I would say she has ranks in knowledge education as well.

I'd say Sabine would have ranks of Commando rather than ranks of Hired Gun, and I think she'd be more of a saboteur...the Saboteur class has the Skulduggery and Stealth skills as class skills, which would seem to be consistent with her character in the short "Art Attack." Also, the Saboteur talent tree really seems to mesh well with the Commando tree. On another note, I think using Age of Rebellion talent trees would work thematically well with Sabine talking about her academy training.

Kanan...I'd agree that he should start with something in the FaD book. Given how much he tends to use his lightsaber to reflect blasters, I'd say maybe Shien? (or Shii-Cho. I think Shien is the talent tree with more Reflect talents.) After that, though, I would say give him ranks in Mercenary to pick up one or two Leadership talents, as he seems to give the team advantages when they follow orders. I might even go so far as to give him a rank or two of Infiltrator...Kanan doesn't strike me as someone who has invested a lot of time into any talent tree other than the Shien talent tree.

What do you think of statting out the Inquisitor, though? He seems to have been made with the Acolyte package, and he has a double-bladed lightsaber that I might add the Linked quality to in order to simulate the spinning blade ability. I'd also give him the Move power, then boost his Agility and have his Lightsaber skill be linked to that.
