How would you Knight level build an ...?

I wonder if Twi'leks have little dumbbells for their lekku?

You mean an "agent"/pimp?

Yeah of course! It's the perfect combination.

Why nemodian? Just because they're greedy or is there more to it than that?

Just their greedy, ruthless negotiators. Also not that fussed about slavery or shady deals. I can't think of a better species to be a Star Wars Pimp... well Hutt obviously, but they seem more like the kingpin, the one who owns all the pimps as well as the workers.

I figure an adult holovid star needs a hovercam droid to record her holovids? Can anyone point me in the direction of a cheapish one?

Also longterm the character should maybe dip into doctor for pressure point and going down to dedication and the grit and resolve along the way, maybe anatomy lessons too... she would certainly have an intimate :D knowledge of many species' anatomy and biology from her vast experience "playing doctor" (multiple puns intended). And maybe she ought to go into entrepreneur simply for sound investments fluffed as royalties from previous holovids. So colonist is turning out to be a very appropriate career for her.

RMD-20 camera remote. 500 credits, Rarity 4. From Keeping the Peace.

Ok, I made a few changes to Xenia Onatopp, here is her character sheet

An NPC droid with a built-in camera and spotlight following around and constantly giving her direction could be fun too.

Mechanically, this is probably better than the Industrial Automation Hologlide J57 Cam Droid (Mini) page 102 of Suns of Fortune (3 wounds instead of 2 and the RMD-20 is also 300 credits cheaper).

However, the J57 can straight out fly, whereas the RMD-20 is limited to hovering a short distance above the ground, granted not such a big deal, but what sold me on the J57 was the quality of the recording (entirely fluff I know) "Used to record news, sports, and entertainment events..." so I was thinking a professional level cam droid would be some something Xenia would spring for, she has to look her best in her videos after all, and she generally records her frequent sex acts, so considering she still has about 4,400 credits left over after the purchase of all her gear including the slightly more expensive droid... she'd probably spring for it in universe. I'm thinking that I might need to get her a datapad too, does anyone know if there are any specifically stated as being good for handling holovid recording and editing (I seem to remember fluff text like that but I don't remember which book or the name of the item).

hmm there is a "communications media manipulator" on page 50 of desperate page 50, 400 credits, 6 encumbrance, described as "compact and portable" (compared to a large studio) and "easily installed in a small space ship or even a larger landspeeder" it must have been what I was thinking of, she or her agent will need to have one of these but not carried with her at all times of course.

Trying to include a youtube video of "flying submission" leg choking, since the normal html doesn't work how do people do it on these forums (because I've seen including videos being done in other threads)

If your posting from Windows/Mac then one of the options in the tool bar is "code" (i think!) but when you select it a popup appears which has "Media" as an option, use that to make the video playable from within the thread window. Otherwise it's just a hyperlink.

I'm using windows but I'm not seeing a "media" in the popup list under "code", but I did find it under "special BB code" (the button to the left of the font selector box)

Why don't you take a stab at making the agent?

Sure! It won't be today though.

Not finished yet, but the flavour of the character is starting to come through. I think further progression would work well in Scoundrel, but Aggressor has a lot to offer even without the Force Rating.

And yes, her nickname is Lucky, because that's what she gets you.

Oh, crap. I just realized that my GM is the one statting up this NPC.

I just hope she can’t breathe underwater…. ;)

Not this Neimoidian! Perhaps another character for that though ;)

Hey Richard and Brad, I'd be up for playing a one session cameo Xenia in your game via Google chat or Skype or similar, richard if you want my input i can help script/spitball/whiteboard it... i've gotten remarkably good at predicting my own players but I don't know your group's play style... I go in for intricate intrigue plots. Here's the recap/reveal for my next session (an explanation that puts relevant info from the last 6 or so sessions into context, last session we wrote out a character who had for the onentire session been taken over by a new player who is introducing his own character in session 13)

Brads actually a player in a PBP I run... occasionally :(

Yeah, we haven’t had a lot of activity lately. I occasionally post something there in hopes that will trigger other people to see the update and then make another post of their own, but my last two posts have gone unanswered by the other players.

/me has a sad

Yep, got to agree there. It seems Gungans are less interesting than we had hoped, or I just keep fumbling the PBP GMing.

Where are you guys? I'm in Albuquerque NM. One of my players is moving to California and we've talked about setting up a Web cam so he can keep playing. It started as a once a month game and now is more like once every two months (for 5 hours). I've got a small flat screen tv that I could put on a shelf at just above coffe table height and another laptop with a broken screen that I can plug into the small flats creen as a monitor, if it was on a shelf above the flat screen with the lid leaned forward to be partly closed, the camera would be able to look down at the table (I use minis and maps, not for every encounter but typically for combat) if I had an appropriate shelf we could probably make this work. I've got 5 at the table players. I and two players sit on the couch, and 3 players sit in chairs around the coffee table 2 on a long end and one at the head/foot of the table, so opposite that one is an open spot where I could put a shelf. Would probably need another higher end multiple outlet extension cord, but that's not problematic. I don't require players to narrate how the pass along boost die (triumph and despair get narrated) and i've house ruled how minions work (each minion can act seperately and each additional critical can kill another minion, so the drop like flies and I tip over their minis to keep track of who can no longer act). I guess what I'm saying is that I play fast and loose with the rules (but self consistent). Would yout two be interested in seeing if we could teleconference you into a game? You'd have to pick a player at the table to move your mini and roll dice for you.
