I already have <a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/playing-game/265574-star-trek-ascendant-shakedown-cruise-ic.html" target="_blank">http://www.enworld.org/forum/playing-game/265574-star-trek-ascendant-shakedown-cruise-ic.html</a> going on. I prefer to tell tales of Scum and Villany then Jedi epics though.  My only concern if we keep the game mostly relegated to the Hoan system, it might put players off. It is one of the reasons why I never really played the RPGA version of the Living Campaign, and just made my own campaigns. I have run FtF games and visited Tat, Cloud City, and such where players have seen them in the movies. I have also used walk-ons such as Talon Karrde in which might have some work for them. In my opinion, a lot of players would like to walk through places such as Chalmun's Cantina in Mos Eisley or meet some one like Mara Jade.  What about on the Wiki, you would seperate it by planet or system and have the DM's note certain NPCs they use. This way other DM's can use them if they want or not. The way I am doing it for the Star Trek campaign is listing the name, where they are, an appearance, a personality, and a short history. As I flesh the NPC out more, then I add a few more notes about him on the background thread for the game. Here is an example of an NPC that I used in my last Smuggler campaign: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prello (NPC) Assignment: Minor Hutt CrimelordSystem: TatooineSpecies: Hutt (Female) Image: She is a young Hutt female, with a dark olive coloring. She seems rather slender and more athletic than most hutts that have been seen. She will be seen actually walking in public, and not conveyed on a hover chair.  Personality: She actively calls all of her retainers 'Darling', and seems to actively care for their health. It is not the first time she has hired some one to go find one of her employees when they have come up missing. She is very reluctant to part with her employees, and when it happens, has kept in touch just in case they needed something. It is almost as if she sees her employees as her own children.  History: She is the oldest daughter of Popara the Hutt, and represents his interests on Tatooine. She came here ten years ago, and has a nice comfortable townhouse in the newer section of Mos Eisley. There have been rumors that even Jabba has found her interesting and has thought of trying to win her affections. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You might want to discuss rules for walk-ons for DM's to use, such as not common place or as main characters, and especially do not put them in a position in which they will have a character shoot them.  Also what about the Black Sun, they still existed even after Xizor's death in Shadows of the Empire? Is there a place for them in the area.</blockquote>
