[Greatness942]

Inspired by games like Roll to Dodge Princess Celestia and Los Cazadores...

A blinding flash, a brilliant light, and then you arrive in a galaxy far, far away. The tyrannical Galactic Empire, headed by former Republic Chancellor and Sith Lord Sheev Palpatine, controls the known universe with an iron fist. Enforced by his army of Imperial Stormtroopers, the hunters of the mystic known as the Inquisitors, and his black right hand known only as "Darth Vader," the traitorous Darth Sidious has attained unlimited power, backed by a universal "Force", an energy that binds all life together.

You have arrived here, or perhaps have lived here for some time, with one goal in mind. Free the Galaxy. On your journey, you will face not just the Empire, but random encounters across the multiverse, your personal demons, and even yourselves. Between bouts, you may relax and strategize, but your goal shall remain the same.

Palpatine and Darth Vader must be removed, killed, erased, or impeached. Tyranny cannot survive in this blackest sea.
That description makes it sound a lot more serious than I'm sure it will be. Welcome to yet another RPG by me! In this game, you will be playing as a set of characters from across established franchises, and fighting and roleplaying across the Star Wars galaxy in an attempt to defeat the entire Galactic Empire!

Spoiler: Rules (click to show/hide)

Very simply put, this is a Chunky Salsa, d10-based Character Roleplaying/Battle game, similar to the inspirations above.

Each turn in battle, and when using checks in social, physical, or mental challenges, you will declare your action and a d10 die will be rolled, along with any bonuses or penalties, to mark your skill in said action or check. 1 is a Critical Fail, and will cause negative effects to occur. 10 is a Crit Success, and will induce extra benefits. In battle, two dice rolls will be made and it is the difference between the two that marks how much damage is dealt.

There are no Hit Points. Character damage is modeled realistically, and so you will need to be careful when facing difficult opponents.

Important Rules!
My say is final in regards to rule disputes, though you obviously may voice concerns over those ruling. I am just trying to make things run smoothly.
Part of the fun is playing as known characters, so you must pick one of them. New ones will be introduced periodically, and you may suggest new characters freely whenever you want, though their inclusions are not guaranteed.
There can be multiple of the same character at once, provided you choose different colors for their text.
As with all forum games, expect delays, hiatuses, or cancellations. However, I will try to keep this running as long as I can.
And finally, and firmly, have fun!

This is the thread for actually playing the game and discussing strategy and the like. The thread for character selection and dedicated OOC is here! You can join the game in both, but if you want to know who's available, you have to go to the other thread.

(Sorry! Yesterday was D&D Day, I completely lost track of time.)
When you shake away your mental cobwebs and first lay eyes on your new traveling party, your mission objective and basic information dragged into your brain like a body bag dragged to a hearse, you take a moment to look over them all. In total, six strangers now stand as one unit: a charismatic Rebel general and the only native to this galaxy, a Machine designed to drain blood from the living, a tall and strong alien trophy hunter armed to the gills with weaponry, a GI Jarhead with a big gun and his pyromaniacal compadre, and an assassin with the ability to freeze.

The environment you find yourself in is a sealed, oxygen rich dome. The outside world is a toxin-choked junkyard. [Investigation: 3+2 (Native)] Lando knows this planet, though only from star maps and stories: Raxus Prime, a world ravaged by industrialization during the Clone Wars.

Within the large dome is a door sealed by plasma. Just outside, miraculously, appear to be three spaceships, each one large enough to accommodate the six and with enough room to hover up and take off. One is a zipper of a ship, small and weakly armored but clearly packing serious thrusters. One is a gargantuan battle cruiser, slow but tanky, armed to the teeth. The final is a blend, a simple transport cruiser with utterly average armor, weaponry, and thrusters.

The floor is yours. Talk amongst yourselves and vote on a ship to escape and begin your mission.

[Egan_BW]

V1 points at the zipper. Armor and armament of the transport is irrelevant to the collection of blood. Worst case, the ship itself can be used as a missile to pierce the shields and hull of an enemy.

[Maximum Spin]

Yes, that one.

[ReverseArcana]

I point towards the small ship, choosing that one

[The Canadian kitten]

"DAMN YOU MERASMUS, ONCE I FIND A WAY OUT, MY BOOT WILL MEET YOUR ASS!

Oh Holy Mary, mother of Joseph. that is one beautiful ship..."

The soldier points at the Battlecruiser, clearly representative of God-blessed American Freedom.

[LovecraftianFairyTale]

“Hm. Though I would prefer the medium-sized vessel, moderation seems unlikely in a group such as this. The smaller ship it is then.”

[Maximum Spin]

"We could take all the ships..."

[LovecraftianFairyTale]

"We could take all the ships..."

“Possibly. Though I can’t speak for the others, I don’t know how to pilot any of these vessels. Half of us appear to be mute, making communication between ships an issue, while the remainder seems…” Sub-Zero glanced to Soldier, “Enthusiastic. If feasible, though, the idea has merit.”

[King Zultan]

Point at the smallest ship.

[Greatness942]

With the group quickly coming into agreement that the fastest ship would be the best for clearing up this mayhem, they arrive to the door of the oxygen-dome. Lando clicks off a few safety switches, and the blue, shimmering gate fades away like it were a lightswitch in a small room.

As they step out towards the ships, they immediately taste the pollution in the air, oxygen low compared to the carbon dioxide and harmful chemicals wafting through the surface of every inch of Raxus Prime. The less-armored ship, codenamed "Zipper", stands proud despite rusted plating and a less than stellar sheen. But before they can successfully open the doors and board the ship, they hear rough and tumble voices from their right. "FREEZE!" one shouts. A squad of about six people, clad in black and white armor and wielding firearms, step out from behind an ambush spot around the heavily armored vessel. "This area is restricted! Move back in the shelter and wait for processing. No one's supposed to be here, least of all armed! We need to take you in for questioning of being scavengers!" [Spot: 5] One of the lesser grunts behind the main man whispers something to the head honcho. "...You." He says while pointing to Lando Calrissian. "You look like a known Rebel fugitive. Explain yourself!" The other Stormtroopers, getting antsy, step back and click the safety switches on their blasters.
