I have played an Iktochi before and love their racial ability! Great for narrative plot hooks. I used the Seer spec to get 3 FR and alot of bonuses for Vigilance and moving first in initiative.

That's actually a good point, going Seer. Think I'll retweak this guy from Sage to Seer.

Question about the time of the game. You say pre-New Hope, but that is a large time frame. Is this post Order 66? I'm guessing so, but want to confirm before writing up background.

Wolfman Martial artist.

Another Shistavenen? :)

Is it alright if my PC offloads combat to the rest of the party? I think I can do a lot more good as a Force-empowered technician than trying to get combat going. I can always pick up a rifle and fire off a few rounds (Agility 3), but I won't be contributing as much.

Think Mini Man-Bat Mechanic, a chadra-fan Artisan that uses Stealth and intelligence to sabotage. And occassionally performs tune-ups.

I ❤️ the Seer. Favorite specialization.

Combat not a requirement. In my experience it slows down PBP to a crawl so I will only be doing it only if the players want to.

It sounds like a great character already.

That a good question. What I meant was this is right before A New Hope and Rogue One. Luke is still racing T-16s near Toshi Station and the DeathStar is finishing it's construction.

The events of those movies count happen at any moment in this storyline.

That's fine, I just wanted to make sure, I was planning on having my background incorporate Order 66, and just wanted to make sure that had technically happened. Like I said, I figured it was after O66, but wanted to make sure. :D

No relation to Jarash... this one is an underleveld version of Marrok.

My proposed character is a relation to a previous character of mine...younger brother :)

However, the two of them never met, so their backstories have no points of intersection. So it's more just personal satisfaction for me :D

I'm a fan of the 1-check resolution optional rule, especially in PbP format. You don't need to wait for player turns that way.

I was on the fence about joining another pbp here, but if you're still recruiting for a 6th pc slot, I'm interested. I can commit to at least 2-3 posts/ week, and keep up with the pace set by the campaign and its other participants. Long time role-player, but less than a year with this system, if that is sufficient to count myself as "experienced?"

I've been checking out Disciples of Harmony , and am contemplating a Pau'an Consular (Arbiter, Niman, possibly both). Rogue Scholar/ Relic Seeker background.

Your welcome by all means. I was simply meaning self-reliant as far as PBP and system rules.

Any issues with Kilimar's background?

I did not have any issues.

Apologies killerbeardhawk, I'm gonna bow out.

I started putting a PC together but just realized I don't want to mess 3 different sites for one game. Too used to having everything within a click or two from each other to change my ways now I guess.

Again, sorry to have wasted your time.

Is there still a space on this? I've never tried pbp but I'd like to give it a shot :)

It's not a problem

Are you guys going to play via the forum I'm confused?

I will give priority to a player with PBP experience. if we don't fill all 6 players you are welcome to join.

Please post your character once your ready.

Yes. We can play here. There's a dice website Orokos.com.

@Edgehawk @Rakaydos @awayputurwpn @KungFuFerret @RickAllison are playing so far. Away and Rick still needs to finish characters.

all of you are committed to post at least once a week? More would be preferable but to keep things moving I will not wait more than a week for you to post.

Ah cool. I will be interested to keep up with the posts/read your adventures.
