About the adventure
π Embark on an adventure a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away. π½ Over 100 different species' options to play as! π« Play from levels 1 thru 20 with one of ten Star Wars themed classes! π Travel to famous planets throughout the galaxy πΎ Encounter gangsters, battle Stormtroopers, and determine your own path in the battle of Light vs Dark. π Disable a "Top Secret" project that could keep the Empire in power forever - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Ten years after the rise of the Empire, the known galaxy is gripped by the tyranny of the Emperor Palpatine. The Jedi Knights, a once great order, have not only failed to protect the Republic, but have been decimated by the Emperorβs servant Darth Vader. The Dark Lord of the Sith hunts down and kills those Jedi who managed to survive in hiding. But the oppressed have begun to organize, and with the covert support of Senators who seek a return of the Republic, the Resistance begins to take form. This is the story of those who are ushering in the Dawn of Defiance. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Here is what previous Star Wars 5e party members have said: "Thom is a fantastic and fun GM! He lets you make your own choices and the consequences are usually fair and fun!" ~ Angela "I never thought my love for Star Wars and my love for DnD would ever cross paths, but everything was so seamless and smooth." ~ Trey "It was awesome. I was acting like a little kid on Christmas when we would go through events of order 66 and afterwards. I definitely loved meeting Darth Vader in the game and living to tell the tale!" ~ TJ "He has a great sense of humor which shines in all of his games, just be sure to keep a weather eye out, as that sense of humor applies to tricks and traps as much as it does to conversations with NPCs!" ~ Rob " I happen to be totally blind, and he made me feel very welcome and comfortable at his table. He was always willing to describe the battlefield at the settings we were in to make me feel involved with the story." ~ Jordan
Hello everyone! We still have one seat available in game and are now at level 5! Having recently boarded and stolen a pirate dreadnaught, potential for chaos ensues as the party makes its way towards Lothal and a rendevous with the Rebel Alliance. The other five players had a Session 0, and I'm happy to help catch you up to character creation, rules, safety tools, and get you ready to play! I also have 8 Pregenerated Characters available to play if you're interested in grabbing a pregen that's already ready to go!

How will character creation work
This adventure will be played via Roll20, with Discord for Voice. Players are welcome to create characters using Star Wars 5e's own engine, or within Roll20's built-in character sheets! - Dawn of Defiance has several content warnings and includes some survival elements. These will all be further discussed at Session. Due to these elements, I will be including a Safety and Consent Checklist covering things that may be included as appropriate from the module. These elements may be adapted based on safety concerns. Also note, while this is not a specifically adult themed game, players should be able to handle themes in mature ways. Additionally, I will have Safety Card Tokens available to anonymously Drop on the Map at any point. If a player is uncomfortable with the content for any reason (including phobias, PTSD, and/or many more), Drag and Drop these into the map at any time for a safety pause.
