Adventures of The Hood and Her Crew [ EDIT ]
This game has been retired! That means it's no longer being run.
EDIT: THIS GAME IS NOW FULL - I will be closing things off shortly. Thank you to everyone who applied, I saw a lot of amazing character ideas and I hope you each find a group soon :)
Your party will be a group of 4 individuals who each owe a debt of obligation to a Hutt Cartel crime lord named Bargos The Hutt.
You have been called to the palace of Bargos the Hutt to perform just one small favor to reduce your debt...
Your adventure starts during the period of time between the first and second Death Star, where the Galactic Empire is still strong and the Rebel Alliance is a rising power.

CHARACTER CREATION:
You can only use species and careers found in any of the core rule books or official Source books for Edge of the Empire (EotE).
Force sensitives are not allowed. Aside from that who knows what will happen as your group evolves.
We will be using the "obligation" mechanic from EotE, and only take 10 at character creation for a group of 4, however you can take extra obligation to get more XP or credits as is described in the rule book.
As you are creating a character, keep in mind you part of a group with different skills and while you may not initially be very skilled you will grow and become stronger as you take on missions together and discover the mysteries of the galaxy. I plan to make this a long term campaign so please think about that when applying.
Important: Please use the Character Sheets provided by Gamers Plane. Since its great to have it all on the one platform. However I would recommend new players applying for this game to use Oggdude's character generator (because its easy to use) and then complete the Gamers Plane character sheet using the result of that.
PLAY BY POST:
This is a game using the play by post method, which is perfect for players who have busy schedules or who don't feel comfortable with voice.
This game is a marathon, not a sprint and so the post frequency will be about 3-5 posts per week with weekends off (I can't do weekends sorry). That should mean we finish one mission roughly every 4-6 weeks.
Some players may find that frustratingly slow so please think carefully before applying. However you can always compensate for this by coming up with detailed and thought out responses from your character and no doubt we'll fall into a rhythm that suits everyone once we get up and running.
I also have a house rule where if a player doesn't reply for 3 days then we will either skip them or move their character a little to keep the story flowing for other players (whichever makes more sense).
ABOUT THE GM:
This is the second time I have been GM of an EotE campaign and I have been spending a bit of time for the past 2 weeks getting this adventure ready.
I have never used Gamers Plane to run a game (my last game was using discord) however I feel that discord was not the right platform for an EotE campaign, I really enjoy when players come back with thoughtful and detailed responses from their characters so I am hoping the forum format will help that.
In terms of my GM style, as another GM put it here recently:
You can expect a fair game from me where your choices will be mostly responsible for your character's success and fate.
As a GM I won't be 'out to get you', but you always have the potential to face ruthless enemies, real danger and even death in each mission if you make bad decisions or have bad luck (often at the same time).
Naturally, knowing that as your GM I can, at times (not always!), be absolutely merciless, your victories and accomplishments will also have much more meaning. The dramatic moments will be more intense. The lighter moments will be a welcome relief at times. And, if your character does suffer a horrible fate for whatever reason, you can always create a new one and we'll easily find a way to bring them into the story. In no way am I implying that generating a new character will be common, I just want to let you know that you won't be eliminated from the game.
Ok I think that is it! Anything else we can discuss in the game. Have an awesome day and look forward to seeing applications.
