Gameplay details

Lines and Veils: We employ Lines and Veils as our safety tools to create a respectful and comfortable gaming environment for everyone. Lines are boundaries that we agree not to cross, representing content we won’t include in our game. Veils are elements that can be present but not described in detail, always handled with care and off-screen. Before we embark on our adventure, I’ll be sharing a document with proposed Lines and Veils. Each player is encouraged to contribute, ensuring that the gameplay remains enjoyable and respectful for everyone involved. This document will be a living agreement, open to revision and discussion as we progress through the campaign. Session 0: Our initial session, Session 0, is pivotal for establishing expectations, understanding player boundaries, and character creation. This session allows us to collaboratively define the tone of our campaign, discuss the Lines and Veils document, and generate exciting, cohesive player characters that fit seamlessly into the Star Wars universe. During Session 0, we’ll delve into: Player expectations and aspirations A brief overview of the campaign's themes and structure Character creation process and backstory development A discussion and finalization of our Lines and Veils
