Dust swirls around your boots as the sith temple looms, a low groan of ancient metal echoes within. "This relic better fetch some good creds."
About the adventure
This Campaign's Session 0 is scheduled for Friday, May 30th. The shipâs ramp groans as it descends, revealing a barren, forgotten worldâthe kind of place scrubbed clean from Imperial records. You step onto soil steeped in mystery, the weight of untold history pressing against your boots. But letâs not kid ourselves; this isnât about uncovering the truth or championing justice. This is about survival, about making the credits that keep the engines humming and the blasters charged. Itâs about finding the highest bidder and walking away just a little richer than you started. In a galaxy fractured by rebellion and the cold iron grip of the Empire, values clash and ideologies crumble. Yet here, on the fringes of the Outer Rim, itâs all just noise. The chaos of the Core Worlds is light-years away, and you make your own rules out here. You forge alliances where it serves you, set your loyalty to your crew, and name your priceâbecause survival doesnât come cheap in Wild Space. This is the Edge of the Empire, where fortunes are made, betrayed, and lost in the blink of a blasterâs muzzle. This is your story, your crew, and your code. Welcome to the Outer Rim, where the only currency that matters is creditsâand the courage to claim them.

About me
For two decades, the tapestry of storytelling has been my life's work. It's not merely a hobby, but a passionate pursuit to craft worlds where the extraordinary becomes reality. My greatest joy lies in witnessing players step into these realms, not as passive observers, but as architects of their own destinies. I've dedicated myself to building environments where they can explore, thrive, and transform into the heroes, rogues, or scholars their hearts envision. Whether it's scaling impossible peaks, unraveling ancient mysteries, or forging alliances that shape the fate of kingdoms, I champion their every aspiration, ensuring their tales echo through the ages. My journey has been one of constant learning, a deep dive into the intricate machinery of tabletop role-playing. Iâve explored dozens of systems, each a unique lens through which to view the art of collaborative narrative. From the gritty realism of one system to the fantastical whimsy of another, I've honed my ability to discern the perfect fit for each group, each story, each player. Understanding the nuances of different storytelling styles allows me to tailor experiences that resonate deeply, ensuring every participant feels seen and empowered. I've learned that a true storyteller doesn't dictate the path, but illuminates the possibilities, guiding players toward the epic goals they set for themselves. This love for the hobby, far from diminishing over the years, has only intensified. It's a living, breathing passion that continues to evolve, weaving itself ever more deeply into the fabric of my life. To share this passion, to invite others into the worlds I've painstakingly crafted, is a privilege I cherish. I am eager to see the stories you will write, the characters you will embody, and the adventures we will embark on together. Let us forge legends that will be told and retold for years to come, and I will be there, every step of the way, to celebrate your triumphs and champion your dreams.

Going into a 15th session with Dan and I can guarantee that any prospective players of theirs will not regret time spent at their game table. Plenty of room for player creativity and tons of fun character interactions among many other positive points are what you can expect.

Dan is an extremely accommodating dm, making it easy to feel comfortable playing with him, especially in games requiring a high amount of RP. He communicated a lot with me which shows his dedication to the craft and his willlingness to make a great experience for the player.
Robby curneal (TCGknight)
I've been playing RPGs with captpandaddy for a few years now. Between random one shots and a long starfinder campaign we've had a lot of fun moments. If you have an idea for a character they'll give you some fun homebrew rules to help you with the fantasy you have for your character. I had a vesk who had a military leadership background, and they gave me a custom skill (leadership) which helped me convince enemies to join our side when they saw a capable leader. I was also given a custom devil shotgun and a devil minion, so I felt like a strong commander that lead from the front, and by example. He is still my favorite character I've had in an RPG to date, and none of it would have been possible without the amazing homebrew. Encounters always felt fair and exciting. Also willing to tone it down/up depending on the needs of the party. They will also help you if you're unsure of your characters abilities. Overall a stellar DM who cares about the players, and is willing to invest as much into your character as you are.

I have always had such an amazing time playing with Dan as my DM. I was brand new to the game when I joined and I was welcomed with open arms. Dan has always been very patient and accepting of the people we play with and I know that he puts a lot of work into each session to ensure we're all having a great time while playing an amazing story!

Creative and good at going with the flow and allowing players to do what they want.
Raymond Florian
This stalwart fellow has been a companion and GM for me for going on 9 years now. I love his sense of creativity and the freedom he gives his players to take control of situations. This means that sometimes very creative solutions to problems can arise that neither the party nor our illustrious GM can predict, leading to hilarity and a sense of accomplishment not found in many places other than a TTRPG. I would recommend him to anyone, especially someone just starting their sojourn into TTRPGs.
Character creation
Creating your character
We will create characters together in our session 0. Character-building rules will stick to Edge of the Empire Core and all of its Career Source Books. No prior knowledge of the rules is necessary, I am happy to teach as we play. I do find that having a general understanding of the very basics, if possible, always enhances the experience.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You'll need a computer or laptop with an updated browser for FoundryVTT. No download is necessary for Foundry; I will provide the link to the server from my Discord server. On that note, you will need to download Discord either via a mobile device, computer, or laptop and have a microphone for voice comms.
What CaptPanDad / Dan brings to the table
I bring over two decades of experience to the tableâyears spent living and breathing all things tabletop gaming. Storytelling, world-building, and facilitating unforgettable adventures are my passion, and I aim to create an experience that feels seamless, immersive, and unforgettable for everyone involved. I utilize FoundryVTT to take our gameplay to the next level. This platform allows us to manage characters effortlessly, provides detailed information about planets, factions, and NPCs, and offers tools that enhance accessibility and enrich our experience. Itâs not just about functionalityâitâs about making the galaxy come alive in ways that keep us all engaged. To keep us connected, I provide a dedicated Discord server for voice and optional video communication. Whether youâre a camera-on kind of person or just prefer to stay in the moment with audio, the choice is entirely yours. The focus is always on creating a comfortable space that works for everyone. Above all, I strive to provide a safe and inclusive environment where creativity flourishes. My ultimate goal is to tell amazing stories with amazing people, creating a space where everyone feels welcome to contribute, collaborate, and share in the magic of tabletop roleplaying. Together, weâll forge the kind of adventures that become legendary.

Safety
How CaptPanDad / Dan creates a safe table
All of my games run with a Consent Checklist just to make sure that I do my best to make sure your environment is as safe as I can make it. Breaks are necessary for animals, and everybody needs to use the bathroom. We'll do a session 0 to talk expectations, build characters, and meet each other for the first time. Finally, the X card will be implemented in FoundryVTT as a safety measure in case a line is crossed. It will immediately put things on hold with no judgment, and we'll decide if we need to retcon something or just skip the scene entirely.
