Okay, I don't like railroads and I'm not going to do that to you guys. To make this game easy to start, I suggest we have light rails for the start of this first session. I'm not responsible for yor character's buy in, either, so I'll need everyone's help to get this rolling. So here are my starting suggestions:
The party will be starting split. The crew of The Turtle (or whatever you guys call it) are probably in the spaceport, and have just touched down. Their cargo better be in smuggling compartments, or shold be legit. I suggest you guys coordinate a bit for some backstory to explain your arrival (you'll know why once I start the thread tonight), your objectives, and what the crew's plans might be. You don't need much in detail, just a rough idea. My interruption will probably come soon, unless you manage to find the other party or a convenient cantina.
Valoris Khan and Pepra should probably begin at the Thaali Research Institute. They will have been notified that something out of the ordinary has been going on, and that they and Eliasan may need to leave the planet. Pepra has probably been working there the longest on as a research assistant and as covert data security on the project. Valoris has probably been brought on the team recently by Eliasan herself, presumably because of a recent breakthrough. It's a holiday, but you both have been promised a bonus for attendance and collecting a few important items in her lab. She'll arrive just shortly after you both.
Destiny point tally: 8 Light, 2 Dark
Very important:
The starting world is Svivren. Personal weapons are illegal, and violent crimes (of any sort) are punishable by instant, public execution. Valoris will be armed with a stun blaster belonging to the labs. Everyone else will either be leaving their weapons at home, somewhere secure, or trying to conceal carry them.
You have been warned. :D
