    The Star Wars Iconic Characters...

    Oh, I dunno. Set's almost certainly a bit further along the road to corruption, but I kinda dig the notion of a heavily wounded Set breaking into Arani's office and collapsing moments before the ISB shows up.

    The Star Wars Iconic Characters...

    Hey, Set, welcome back! Put me down for excitement, adventure, and really wild things. :) I'll note that shifting to the early Rebellion era means a possible Iconic slot would open up: Kira Lar , Iconic Rebel Trooper, who was written out of the Revised Core Rules during the big contract...

    Best Aristocrat/Noble base class?

    I don't know what the exchange would be, and to be honest I don't have a PHB to compare. But my gut says 1d4 x 1000 gold would be a bit much. The Fringer class gets 1d4 x 500, and they are by no means supposed to be wealthy.

    I would certainly be up for this. But do I get to be Senator Korden? :p

    Best Aristocrat/Noble base class?

    The Wheel of Time Noble class was lifted almost directly from the Star Wars rules. (Except Wheel of Time Nobles get Bluff as a class skill, while SW Nobles have to blow their free class skill if they want it. Grrr.) When the Star Wars rules were revised, the "spend a favor and it goes away...

    The Star Wars Iconic Characters and the Lords of the Expanse: Hunting Grounds (cont.)

    The game is certainly going slowly, and I have to take at least partial responsibility for that, since I've been playing up to the more soap-operaish bits of everyone's personal lives instead of focusing on the adventure itself. But I'm very taken with this game. I'll stick with it, whatever...

    The Star Wars Iconic Characters and the Lords of the Expanse: Hunting Grounds (cont.)

    Arani accepts Vor'en's escort without comment. She's gotten used to having him around to guard her body, and it will keep her from bumping into anyone as they work their way through the crowd.

    BESM d20 - I think I'm in love

    Regarding BESM d20 itself - I bought it when it came out, thought it was neat, and then put it on the shelf. I've become intrigued with it again, lately, as the combat system is a bit lighter and more narrative than regular d20 (which pleases me.) And the upcoming Uresia d20 seems pretty neat...

    BESM d20 - I think I'm in love

    I think that the point balances for the D&D classes assume that all magic items will be paid for with character points and the Item of Power attribute; given that, then yes, the spellcasting classes are a little more powerful. But that's all IMHO.

    Gamma World - Game Masters Guide

    You know, there have been a number of threads dealing with complaints about the new edition of Gamma World; perhaps complaints about the game could go in one of them instead of hijacking a simple "request for information" thread started by someone who obviously does care? EDIT - The White Wolf...

    "Don't worry, Kel. We're in my territory now." Arani laughs. "Stick with me, and we'll be fine. And you're right. The others will be perfectly safe - at least until I get my hands on them." Pleased by the prospect of vengeance, Arani keeps looking for the host. When she catches sight of...

    Spellslinger - Anyone got it? What do you think?

    Just a quick question - do the standard races have full write-ups, or does the book just list setting-specific tweaks? (I'm still PHBless.)

    The Star Wars Iconic Characters and the Lords of the Expanse: Hunting Grounds (cont.)

    ooc: Yeah, you'd like that, wouldn't you? ;) Arani considers telling Vor'en to relax, but she decides againts it. The moment she did, the blaster fire would start. Instead, she scans the room for Lord Apollinari; she figures she'd better pay respects to the host ASAP.

    "I hope so. No, they should be here soon, shouldn't they? Nobody's going to mug a band of Jedi, right?" Arani sighs, and accepts Rorworr's proffered arm. "Either they're in trouble, or they're fine and just decided not to show up. I don't know which possibilty worries me more."

    Arani tosses the commlink aside. "I don't have time for this. We have work to do." She takes a moment to prepare a facsimile of her usual bright smile (dimples and all), then heads out the door.

    "Point. We'll find out soon enough, I guess." Arani surveys the troops. "We look good. Those of us who are here, at least." She pulls out her commlink, but then stops and stares at it.

    ooc: I'm not sure why, but this made me laugh out loud. "Thank you, Vor'en. But I want you to start calling me Arani when we're not in public. Like it or not, you're one of us now." Arani turns to the Rodian. "Very good work, Kel. Looks like our top suspects at the moment are Assadi and...

    "But is he our spy?" Arani takes a moment to scan the room, as well as all the exits. Since she doesn't see what she's looking for, she continues. "He doesn't strike me as the type to have any qualms about dealing with the Trade Federation or pirates; he seemed pretty mercenary to me. No...
