Dawn of Defiance: Episode 1 - The Traitor's Gambit | Beginner and LGBTQ+ Friendly

About the adventure

It has been several months since the events of Revenge of the Sith. The Galactic Empire has risen, and tightens its grip on the galaxy. However, they are not unopposed, as sparks of rebellions flare up across the galaxy. One of these sparks will begin on Sel Zonn Station, a XQ2 Platform orbiting the planet Brentaal IV. On this station is cantina called Gundark's, where we will find an unlikely set of heroes... This will be a galaxy-spanning campaign with a cinematic feel. If you've seen a Star Wars movie, you know what to expect, but there will be plenty of things you haven't seen in a Star Wars movie.

How will character creation work

You will all start at Level 1, with no enhanced items. I'll be checking in with you about your characters before the session, and helping you . The SW5E website has a character creator, but it's in beta and has a lot of missing features so I wouldn't recommend it.
