Together, you will keep the Empire's fist from closing around the entire galaxy, and topple the first dominoes leading to the Empire's destruction. Defy the Empire today! πŸš€ Action, exploration, and intrigue! Fast, furious, fun! πŸ’₯ Become the first rebels against the Galactic Empire! 🌟 An epic campaign - start at Novice and go all the way to Legendary! πŸͺ Visit a galaxy's worth of exotic locales! From mushroom jungles to Imperial cities to wretched hives of scum and villainy!

Game style

Combat Heavy

β€œCombat Heavy” games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.

Roleplay Heavy

β€œRoleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.

What I provide

βœ… Roll20 Plus game with lots of art, music, handouts, and maps with dynamic lighting! βœ… PDFs for the SWADE Core Rulebook and the Science Fiction Companion! βœ… A roleplay-centric experience with a wide variety of challenges. As a GM, I am very familiar with both Dawn of Defiance and Savage Worlds, hence my decision to combine the two to create something even greater. I like to work with players rather than against them, and collaborating with players in their aims for grand success or catastrophic failure is something I'm always proud of.

Gameplay details

Before session zero, I'll be private messaging all the players one-on-one to discuss Lines & Veils. Our first session will be a free session zero, wherein we will make introductions, review Lines & Veils, and create characters. At the end of every session, I will run through "Roses, Thorns, and Buds", allowing players to present positive and negative feedback about the game along with suggestions to make the game more enjoyable in the future. Bigotry will not be tolerated in this group. Racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or other prejudiced behaviors will warrant an immediate kick.

How will character creation work

We will create Novice-ranked characters during session zero. I am primarily using the core rulebook for Savage Worlds Adventure Edition, along with selections from the SWADE Science Fiction Companion. You can make characters with as much or as little backstory as you wish - all I ask for is that your character has a reason to hate the Empire.
