Star Wars: The Jewel of Yavin

About the adventure

This is a private subspace message, set to erase itself after playback... do not try to record it. To all the rogues, tech-skilled adepts, force practitioners, and consulars – whichever category you belong to – my agents have been tasked with delivering this message to you because of your particular set of skills. A precious gem, known in certain arcane circles as the Jewel of Yavin, is concealed behind formidable protections and secure vaults. This jewel holds great value for us, and we desire its acquisition through discreet and covert means, if possible. If not, employ any means necessary. The location of this coveted item is Cloud City, and we will provide you with the necessary support and resources for its retrieval. A diverse approach is essential for this mission, so please be prepared to collaborate with a team of other experts and mercenary assets. We eagerly await your response. - Holo Deletion in Progress 🪐About the setting and the adventure 🪐 From its inception, "The Jewel of Yavin" is set to be a pulse-pounding jewel heist, a delightful fusion of "Ocean's 11" with the expansive Star Wars universe. And what better backdrop for this high-stakes caper than the iconic Cloud City on Bespin? In addition to highlighting the remarkable skills and talents of Scoundrels, Slicers, and Thieves, this adventure promises a wealth of social intrigue opportunities. Furthermore, it offers moments for characters skilled in piloting and combat to truly stand out as well, as with all heists something will go wrong so a skilled ex-jedi or dark adept in the force could be key. ☁️ What is Cloud City? ☁️ Cloud City is a tibanna gas mining colony that floats amidst the clouds of the planet Bespin, situated in the Anoat sector of the Outer Rim Territories. Ruled by Baron Administrator Lando Calrissian an iconic character in Star Wars history, the city made every effort to steer clear of unwanted Imperial scrutiny. Unfortunately, Imperial forces eventually took control of the station and established a garrison. However, following the Emperor's apparent demise, the Imperial Garrison was abandoned during the Iron Blockade, and the planet was subsequently liberated creating a thriving metropolis for trade and entertainment with a dynamic lifestyle.

How will character creation work

You can either create a character in advance, and I'd be delighted to review it, or we can collaboratively create a character during our session 0. In this initial session, we'll discuss the team dynamics, how each character fits into the group, go over the general rules for character creation, and explore any optional rules or considerations together. Talk about safety, the campaign itself of course, how 5e star wars is different from DnD etc.
