The Crawl
- STAR WARS
- Desperate Times
- The Clone Wars are over and the EMPIRE has
- risen from the ashes of the REPUBLIC. Now
- purges and arrests are sweeping up any who
- raise their voice against the new regime.
- Arrested and deported without trial, you
- find yourselves slaving in the Spice Desert
- of Nar Molub for a meagre daily ration.
- Life expectancy here is very short.
- Saboteurs have crippled the Spice Crawler,
- and confusion reigns in the night. Flight
- across the desert is a desperate ploy, but
- it may be your only hope...
Game Notes
Nar Molob
A forgotten and inhospitable planet in Hutt space, Nar Molub was an orbital refuelling station above a planet left alone until the recent discovery of Molub Spice. Molub Spice is a silicate compound found in the sand that, with the proper treatment, compares favourably to glitterdust, a Kessel Spice.
Spice Crawlers, massive tracked refineries, process tons of sand. Exposure to certain toxic gases makes Molub Spice turn green, and slaves are utilized in oppressively hot, toxic sorting chambers, separating crystals. Their daily ration is linked directly to the number of crystals gathered, and cliques, infighting, and theft are common.
The Crawlers stop at night, and the slaves frequently camp in scrap-tents around the base of the Crawlers. Any who are injured or sick, or poisoned by the long-term exposure to toxic fumes, are often left behind to face exposure and starvation in the desert.
