Star Wars: Force and Destiny - Chronicles of the Gatekeeper

How to prepare

Make sure to have a decent microphone—a headset mic works great. Create a Discord account if you don't already have one. I am happy to teach rules as necessary, so you do not need to read them yourself unless you just want to.

What I provide

We'll use a Discord server for communication, where we'll have access to a dice bot to handle rolling and other things. I can also set up a Roll20 for the game if we decide we want one during Session 0, but we can also stick to theater of the mind if that's what the group chooses. I am a long-time GM, game designer, and Star Wars fan with tons of campaigns under my belt. Player fun comes first, and Rule of Cool often trumps Rules as Written. I like to offer exciting, dynamic adventures with challenging combats and interesting dilemmas, and adapt toward what engages a group most. I've written official content for this game, published by Fantasy Flight Games (though not this adventure). I was also part of the Star Wars actual play Heroes of the Hydian Way during its second and third seasons.

Gameplay details

We will do a Session 0 to create characters and discuss vibes for the game. I'll also send out a Lines & Veils document prior to Session 0 and maintain a list of topics that should be treated carefully or avoided entirely.

How will character creation work

We will handle character creation together during Session 0, following the standard rules presented in the Force and Destiny core rulebook. I will allow any career and specialization from the Age of Rebellion line, and most any alien species from the entire Star Wars FFG line (with a few exceptions if they're super weird). I am happy to share any books people do not have themselves. Feel free to come to Session 0 with ideas about what you want to play. If you aren't sure, or you are a new to the system, we can brainstorm fun characters during Session 0 together.
