Scum and Villainy | Fight. Rebel. Resist. Embrace the Dawn of Defiance!

About the adventure

🔄 Lost? Oppressed? Hungry? Betrayed? Break the cycle! ✊🏽 Join the Rebellion and stand up to the evil Empire 👥 Unite to fight back the Imperial oppressors 🌅 Be the change! In this game, you will: 🔸 Play as brave rebels, clever smugglers, daring scoundrels, compassionate activists or conniving imperial turncoats 🔸 Go on action-packed missions: heists, blockade runs, extractions, prison breaks 🔸 Use your wits, teamwork and creativity to change the course of galactic history 🔸 Immerse yourself in a rich, thrilling Star Wars story with you at its center ==================================== Hey, get closer. Can't risk anyone overhearing. You and I both know: the Galactic Empire's rule has brought us nothing but despair. Ever-growing bureaucracy, rampant corruption, xenophobia, brutal policing, whistleblowers. This is the backdrop of our existence. We got so used to it that most of us just look away and try to not get into trouble. But not you and I. Not anymore. We've lived in darkness long enough. The sun is coming up, and with it — the dawn of a new era. The age of rebellion. Are you with us? ==================================== This drop-in campaign takes place after the rise of the Empire (events of Episode III: Revenge of the Sith) and before the destruction of the first Death Star (events of Episode IV: A New Hope). Ruled with an iron fist of the newly declared Emperor, the hegemonic state has tightened its grip on star systems through the galaxy. The campaign follows the story of your characters as they form one of the first wave of resistance against the oppression of the Empire, dealing blow after blow to it in and finding allies to join the freedom movement. ==================================== 🌟 What do players say about my games? ◆ "TL;DR: 10/10!" — Belmont ◆ "What really struck me about Danil is how professional he was in all the ways you want a GM to be" — Alex ◆ "The stories he weaves are genuinely easy to connect with and fascinating" — Manish ◆ "Danil puts a lot of effort into his game and it shows...Easily the best GM I've had when it comes to presentation" — Demi ◆ "Dedicated and methodical, and most of all, smart, able to think on his feet and adapt to players actions in a constructive way" — Carlos ==================================== Image Credit: "Capital Escape" by Lucas Durham © Fantasy Flight Games & LucasFilms Ltd.
