We got new specializations for the Jedi and Clone Soldier in Collapse of the Republic , and they’re nice, but those Careers already had their time in the spotlight . This time it’s the Universal Specializations that really caught my eye. Three of them are pretty firmly on the side of the bad guys in the Clone Wars (although there are always exceptions, and then there’s that whole Palpatine thing), while the Senator is explicitly written to refer to a representative from either side of the war. So, why not turn things on their head and fight for the Confederacy of Independent Systems against the corrupt Galactic Republic, their army of clone slaves, and their Jedi attack hounds?

Tuc Shodin , Skakoan Colonist/Entrepreneur/Separatist Commander, leading the droids of the Separatist Alliance much the way he would lead a Techno Union labor force: with ruthless efficiency.

Galatea Obdris , Umbaran Diplomat/Propagandist/Senator, fighting for the hearts and minds of the galaxy, one speech or propaganda holo at a time.

Duron Skirata , Mandalorian Smuggler/Gunslinger/Death Watch Warrior, a fast-shooting, fast-flying son of Mandalore determined to return his homeworld and people to their glorious heritage, forged in battle.

Vania Tuspin , Dathomirian Hired Gun/Maruader/Nightsister, a swordswoman skilled in magicks, out in the galaxy to prove herself and perhaps even learn a thing or two.

Whether you're just looking for an idea for a different kind of campaign or grab the characters as they are and jump right into play, give Meet the Party: Separatists a look, and deploy the droids! Thanks for reading!
