Orius
Legend
They're up to Episode II now. Jim took over Padme after Qui-Gon died, and immediately started kicking ass with her. I thought that was a funny strip.
The group of players hasn't changed. I don't really see any new PCs coming in, unless Threepio becomes a PC. Since Sally's still playing with the group, maybe she might switch from Jar-Jar to Threepio.
Anyway, I think I see how this comic's going to generally unfold following the movie plots. Interestingly enough, instead of simply continuing the game, tho years have passed in the "real world" , so they're going back to the old campaign with the GM advancing the story ten years. Interesting twist. I think things are going to keep going until the end of Sith, at which point the GM's probably going to retool, given that that movie's pretty much a campaign ender. You've got a dead PC, a PC turning to the Dark Side, and going under GM control, and a third PC forced into hiding. Only Pete's twinktastic R2-D2 will survive.
I think this is what we'll see for the original trilogy:
Ben will be playing Luke. I think he's going to going to be the type of player who enjoys playing a Jedi, so Luke seems like the natural choice. Plus his new character gets mentored by his old one.
Annie will be playing Leia. Just seems like a good match, and I'm basing the guess on the process of elimination.
I thought Sally wouldn't be with the group after Menace, but she's still around. So either she'll play Threepio like I said above, or she'll be playing Chewbacca.
If she's not playing Chewbacca, then we'll see a new player show up to run him.
It's possible we might see different players for those PCs though.
Pete will continue to run R2-D2 until the end of Jedi. Personally, I'd never allow such a munchkin character to survive that long in one of my campaigns if i could help it, but whatever.
Possbily a new player might join during Empire, and he or she will be running Lando.
Which brings us to Jim's original trilogy character. Given how he ran Qui-Gon in Menace, I can't possibly see anyone else playing Han. And I hope he shoots Greedo first.![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
