Does this sentient race exist in star wars?

Sentient Kangaroo's? If so how I make the race for my character?bb3afcb12eefbef1a25326a647eb2034.thumb.jpg.d21474547b636ea77b04c400d2c2a393.jpg

If not, they bloody well should

Should I just use the wookie stat's and change the race name to fit?

More anthropomorphic weasels, but you could start here:

Also, the species ability of the Kyuzo allows them to jump, so maybe try to build them using ideas from both species to build your new one.

Ask your GM. That's what I do when someone finds some art they like. Use the existing species stats and slap the artwork on as a skin to a tested existing race.

Is this balanced?

Star Wars Kangaroo Race
Brawn 3, Agility 2, Intellect 2, Cunning 2, Willpower 1, Presence 2.


Wound Threshold: 14+Brawn


Strain Threshold: 8+Willpower


Starting Experience: 90 XP


Special Abilities: Kangaroo's begine with one rank in Brawl. They still may not train Brawl above rank 2 during character creation.


High Jump: Able to jump very high or far in normal gravity. Once per round as a maneuver, may suffer 3 strain to move 2 range bands either vertically or horizontally.

Should I move two of the wound threshold to strain because the High Jump ability?

Probably should be asking your GM.

For a female Kangaroo, she has lots of abdominals instead of a marsupial bag...

For the ears and something similar to the drawing, it seems like a Lepi.

There is a fanmade alien species menagerie on the forums with its stats.

*Wookiee

What's a good ship for 6 players? I may play as a bounty hunter operator.

Pouch: The PC, if female, can carry 2 encumbrance in their pouch unless nursing an infant :unsure:

So, I'd go with they're kangaroo like, not anthromorphic kangaroo's and simply not worry about the pouch. The Kyuzo (spelling) and their jump ability would be a good match with my limited knowledge of kangaroos.

I'd say the closest to a sentient "Kangaroo" species (Sans tail) is the Squib. You can find stats for them in the USM.

Is that pouch compatible with the Hidden Storage talent?

Or CSG.

In that case, you’d also have to give males +5 XP

Oh yeah,,,, anything goes.... and no questions asked

They do if you want them to. This! Is! Star! Wars!

I used to work in an authentic Italian restaurant. I would occasionally help the chefs out in the kitchen. If I did something that wasn't authentic Italian, they would call it a "Skippy" attempt, i.e. a failed Australian attempt at being authentic. The term Skippy comes from this show:

The reason I am mentioning this, is that this species idea is sooooo Skippy. Don't do it. Come up with something unique instead. This isn't the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles RPG.

Just adding my $AUD0.02

If you don't mind having your stuff covered in goo...
Better than being a Koala.

My gm ok'ed this stats for my kangaroo race. Does her race need's any fixing?

Star Wars Kangaroo Race


Female's get a pouch and the male's get +5 Exp.


Brawn 3, Agility 2, Intellect 2, Cunning 2, Willpower 1, Presence 2.


Wound Threshold: 12+Brawn


Strain Threshold: 10+Willpower


Starting Experience: 80 XP


Special Abilities: Kangaroo's begin with one rank in Brawl. They still may not train Brawl above rank 2 during character creation.


High Jump: Able to jump very high or far in normal gravity. Once per round as a maneuver, may suffer 3 strain to move 2 range bands either vertically or horizontally.

Kangaroo pouch: A female kangaroo can hold up to 2 encumbrance or a Joey.

I can't decide if I should make her a Pathfinder with pet or a Rigger with her own VCX-Light Freighter. In our last campaign I just got the ship then the players made our gm switch to pathfinder. :( Because of that I get to start out with the same freighter if I choose to play any one of the pilot classes. :) The VCX starts out brand new with no upgrades yet.

What career specialization has the Hidden Storage talent?
