STAR WARS FOR 5ED

These conversion notes don’t cover everything. I am try to keep things simple and straight forward. Many of the items and themes started with the Star Wars Saga system but then morphed into using 5th ed. Dungeons and Dragons as the ‘basic’ rules, with Saga ideas supported in this new system.

BASIC HOUSERULES FOR 5ed

Character Class Notes: In the Star Wars game for 5th D&D characters are called Heroic Characters. This distinction comes into effect when creating minor NPC (minions) and creatures. There are five Heroic Character Classes for this game – Jedi, Leader, Scoundrel, Scout and Soldier. Your character level is your overall level (if multi-classing). You gain your proficiency bonus base on your overall level. You also gain a feat at first level and an additional feat every two overall levels after that (3, 5, etc.) and an Attribute boost starting and 4th level and every two levels after that (8, 12, etc.). With this attribute boost you can add +1 to two different attributes or +2 to on attribute up to your maximum. These bonuses are dependent on your total Character level (see below).

Your Heroic Class Level bonuses are the bonuses you can only gain at that Heroic Character class level (if you multi-class). Note you gain two core Talents at first level character class. If you multi-class into a class after first you gain only one class talent. After 1st level characters gain one additional talent every odd level of Heroic class they take (3, 5, etc.) and a Bonus Class Feat every even level of Heroic class they take (2, 4, etc.).

1 +2 Strating Feat Starting Talent(s)
2 +2 -- Bonus Feat
3 +2 Feat Talent
4 +2 Attribute Bonus Bonus Feat
5 +3 Feat Talent
6 +3 -- Bonus Feat

9 +4 Feat Talent
10 +4 -- Bonus Feat
11 +4 Feat Talent
12 +4 Attribute Bonus Bonus Feat
13 +5 Feat Talent
14 +5 -- Bonus Feat
15 +5 Feat Talent
16 +5 Attribute Bonus Bonus Feat
17 +6 Feat Talent
18 +6 -- Bonus Feat
19 +6 Feat Talent
20 +6 Attribute Bonus Bonus Feat

Destiny Points: 5 + ½ your Heroic Level (round down). These points function similarity as Hero Points from the Optional Rules in the DMG (pg. 264). They can be used to affect any 1d20 roll, but you can only spend a Destiny Point in a round. Destiny Points add 1d4+1 to any 1d20 roll (attack roll, saving throw, etc.) and can also be used to activate certain Talents. They can be spent after you have roll the d20 but before the GM informs you if the result was a success or not. Unspent Destiny Points are lost when you raise a level (and gain this levels points). Certain Talents and Feats and grant you additional Destiny Points, high dice to add to your d20 and addition, non-dice usages.

Other Uses for Destiny Points (Force Sensetive Only): Force Users can spend Destiny Points to temporarily gain the use of a Force Power or Talent. For sake of ease, it costs 1 Destiny Point to temporarily gain the use of a Minor Force Power for its base duration, 2 Destiny Points for a 1st Power level Force Power. If the creature can use higher Power Levels each additional level of power costs +1 additional Destiny Points. The power last for the base duration or 1 minute (10 rounds) maximum. A generic Force Talent cost a base of 3 Destiny Points and last their base duration or up to 1 minute maximum.

Armor Class and Armor: In Star Wars few people wear armor. When not wearing Armor a Heroic Character has a base AC of 10 base +2 insight +its proficiency bonus + either its Dexterity or Intelligence modifier (whichever is better). When wearing armor a creature gains the Armor Class Rating (ACR) of the armor plus either of its’ Dexterity or Intelligence modifier.

Skills: All of the skills from the PHB are being used although some have been renamed and updated. PLEASE NOTE not using Tool or Vehicle proficiencies which have been replaced by new Skills. Feats: are not as powerful in this setting but you gain them far more often. See Feats. Talents: are more powerful than feats and act something like class traits and abilities from the PHB. Weapon and Armor Proficiency: for Star Wars these include – Simple Weapons, Martial Weapons (as normal from the PHB but new types, see Gear), Pistols, Rifles, Heavy Weapons, Advanced Melee Weapons. Exotic Weapons require a Weapons Proficiency feat for each to gain the proficiency bonus. Light, Medium and Heavy armor. Basic equipment from PHB (cost GP = credits at 1:1. Primitive armor provides no ACR vs. any weapon listed here. All other properties as listed there).

Bonuses and Advantages/Disadvantages: Along with standard Advantages and Disadvantages, there are also Bonuses that add directly to the target’s checks. Note that the same type of bonus can’ not stack but different types can. Types: Dark Side, Equipment, Force, Insight, Luck, Moral and Rage.

Granting Advantage: in order to grant action for a non-attack INT or WIS skill check, the individual wishing to ‘aid another’ must also be proficient with the skill.

Force Powers and Talents: Force Powers work something like Warlock spells casting and recovery. The character gains so much Force Energy and a maximum Power level. To use a Force power you must expend a point of Force Energy. You regain all expended Force Energy when you finish a short or long rest. See the Force, Jedi class, and Force Sensitive feat for more details.

Damage Threshold: whenever you take damage that meets or excess of your threshold you suffer the Reeling Condition. Your Damage Threshold is equal to 15 + your Proficiency Bonus + Strength or Constitution ability modifier (whichever is better). Size also has an effect. Large sized beings gain +2, Huge +5, Gargantuan +10 and Colossal +20. Vehicles can also suffer similar affects.

Additional Conditions – Reeling (see Condition in the PHB): you have suffered a wound that has caused a great deal of pain and now is effecting your ability to react.

  • You suffer Disadvantage to all Attacks, Skills and Ability checks.
  • If you suffer from a second Reeling affect (i.e. you are reeling and again take damage that exceeds your Damage Threshold), you are Stunned for one round. After this lost round, you lose the Stunned condition but you are still suffering from the Reeling condition as above.
  • In order to recover from Reeling, at the end of your round (after you have taken your actions) attempt a Constitution or Wisdom save (whichever is better) vs. a DC 10 or ½ the Damage you suffered (round down, whichever is greater, maximum DC 20). If you succeed with your roll, you are no longer suffering the condition. If you fail, you are still suffering from the condition.
  • You can instead spend your Action to recover from Reeling, gaining advantage on your check. You can still take the free check at the end of your round if this check failed but as normal and without advantage.

Slow Natural Healing: optional rule (DMG pg. 267). After a Long Rest you only recover ½ your Hit Dice (round up) back, not any HP (normally you recover all your Hit Points back after a long rest). You must use Hit Dice to recover each morning. Also, once per day, you also recovery one level of Exhaustion after a short rest (in additional to another one at the end of a Long Rest).

Second Wind: when a character falls below ½ their maximum hit points, they can call on some inner reserves that drives many heroes to recover some. As an Action you regain 1d of your best Hit Dice (if multi-classing) plus its Constitution modifier plus your Heroic level back in hit points, up to your maximum total HP’s. You regain an additional +1d of your best HD at your 5th Heroic level, and an additional +1d of your best HD every five additional Heroic levels after that. You must complete a long rest to regain the use of this ability and this does not cost you any of your Hit Dice for healing.

Firing into Melee Combat and Ranged attacks while prone: Attacker into melee with an ally and enemies are at a Disadvantage. You are not at disadvantage when firing firearms, etc. when prone.

Full Round Action and Free Actions: A full round action takes up the full round, including movement (Speed 0) and bonus action (you still have your reaction). A free action take none of these.

Mind-Effecting: many talents, feats and force powers are listed as mind-effecting. These abilities only affect living, sentient beings or creatures, not Droids, etc. Mind-effecting fear don’t work against sentient beings immune to fear.

Hardness: materials and vehicles have a Hardness rating. This is the amount of damage that is reduced from all attacks before applying resistances, Shields, etc. to items hit points.

Heroic Damage Bonus: all Heroic characters add ½ their Heroic level (round down) to all damage type totals that they deal (including unarmed, explosives, AOE, heavy weapons and force powers).

Dark Side Score and Falling to the Dark Side

In Star Wars, the Dark Side of the Force is an even present force of corruption for those individuals looking for quick and easy solutions and for those filled with anger or feat. Doing evil acts (murder, torture, blowing up a planet) add to a being’s Dark Side Score. The GM should determine the number of points a being might gain for evil acts. Minor transgressions like causing another being harm for no reason or your own joy might earn you one, while evil transgression while unjustified murder or torturing a being for pleasure might cause five or more, etc. Giving the order to blow up a planet set you to Consumed by Darkness automatically.

  • Tempted by Darkness: A character with at least 1 Dark Side point but less than ½ (round down) its Wisdom score is considered to be tempted by the Dark Side of the Force. This character feels a slight brush of the Dark Side of the Force and is often quicker to give into anger and fear. The character is further tempted by the Dark Side in the following way (a) whenever a character invokes Dark Fortune (see below), it gains a +1d4 bonus to the end result; (b) a character can spend a Destiny Point and activate any non-Light side Force Power as a Bonus Action instead of an Action. The character’s Dark Side Score increase by 1 each time they invoke either.
  • Tainted by Darkness: A character with a Dark Side Score greater than ½ (round down) its Wisdom score but less than its Wisdom score has been tainted by the Dark Side of the Force. A Tainted character is more tempted to do evil to solve its problems. This character suffers the additional temptations listed above and also they gain a +2 dark side bonus to their Force Attack and to the Force save DC total with any Force Power with the [dark side] descriptor. They suffer Disadvantage to their Force Attack with any Force Power with the [light side] descriptor or grant advantage with saves. It suffers disadvantage with Wisdom (Insight) and Charisma (Persuasion) checks but an advantage with Charisma (Intimidate) checks.
  • Consumed by Darkness: A character with a Dark Side Score equal to its Wisdom Score has been consumed by Dark Side of the Force. Characters who have been consumed by the Dark Side of the Force can no long Call on the Dark Side of the Force (see below) nor do they gain the dark side bonus to Force Side attacks or saves checks with powers with the [dark side] descriptor and can no longer use any Force Power with the [light side] descriptor (if they have any such powers they are lost until the characters Dark Side Score drops below their Wisdom score).

Atoning: you may sacrifice Destiny Points as soon as you gain a new level, but not after. Each point you spend reduces your Dark Side score by a one-for-one bases. The GM may require a side quest to go with this. Those that are Consumed by Darkness almost never can throw off their darkness (but they are GM characters anyway so the GM will determine if and when it might be able to atone).

Call on the Dark Side: Temptation – NOTE that the following apply to player characters ONLY so that they can be tempted towards the Dark Side. NPC Heroic characters do not use these rules. Those characters with Force Sensitive feat are especially vulnerable to the call of the Dark Side of the Force but everyone can have Dark Side points. The Dark Side of the Force is every tempting to all creatures of the Universe. All Heroic characters who have not yet been Consumed by Darkness (see above) can call on the Dark Side of the Force to gain some additional benefits. Once you have fallen completely to the Dark Side you can longer be tempted as it were.

  • Dark Fortune: When a character spends a Destiny Point to increase a roll, it now has Advantage on the d20 roll, taking the better of the two results. This increase the characters Dark Side Score by 1. Characters that have the Lucky or Strong in the Force feats can have advantage on both the check and the Force die but this increases their Dark Side score by 2.
  • Dark Luck: As a Reaction, a character can gain back one spent Destiny Point you just used, but in doing so the characters Dark Side Score is increased by 1.
  • Dark Power (force sensitive only): As an Action the user can spend a Destiny Point and gain the use of one Force Power with the [dark side] description on it for the base duration at 1st Power level, starting on its next Action at no Force Energy cost. This increase the characters Dark Side Score by 2 plus additional ones depending on how and what acts you commit with the power.
  • Dark Reserves: A character can spend a Destiny Point to regain the use of her Second Wind, even if she has not completed a long rest. This increase the characters Dark Side Score by 1.
  • Flight or Fight: A character can spend a Destiny Point as a reaction and gain one additional Action at any time. This increase the characters Dark Side Score by 2.
  • Renew (force sensitive only): As a reaction you regain one spent Force Energy point that you just use but doing so increases your Dark Side Score by 1.

SITUATIONS/ACTIONS HOUSERULES

Aim: if the attacker does not move on its turn (Speed 0), it can use a Bonus action to ‘Aim’ at a target when taking a Range Attack action. When it does so, ½ cover drops to no cover and ¾ cover drops to ½ cover. Aim has no effect on targets with full cover.

Area of Effects (Explosives): (PHB pg. 204) When making an attack with AOE weapons, the attack chooses where the explosive is going to land. Explosive weapons also have two range increments, base and long. Long range grants advantage on affected target’s saving throws. If an attacker does not have Line-Of-Sight on this AOE it is can make an indirect attack, meaning that it can attack over osculates or into area that the attacker cannot see. The range remains the same. Treat targets as Invisible and affected targets have advantages on their saving throws. If the targets are also at the long range of the explosives the targets gain Resistance to the grenades damage (¼ damage at long range with a successful save).

Autofire: When using an Autofire weapon feature, the attacker has two choices, to concentrate on one target or to try fire into an area seeking to damage multiples targets at once. Both affects require the shooter to make a Ranged attack roll at -5. When the attacker concentrates on one target a successful hit deals +2d weapon damage to one target (i.e. a blaster rifle that deals 3d8 damage deals 5d8 damage and a critical hit deals 7d8 damage). For the second option, the attacker must get at least a 10+ with its ranged attack check. If it succeeds all targets in the weapons Area of Effect (PHB pg. 204) must make a Dexterity saving throw vs. DC of 8 + the attacker’s proficiency + Dexterity ability modifier. All targets that fail suffer the base weapons damage. If they succeed they take ½ damage. If the attacker got a Critical success on its attack then all effected targets saving throw are at disadvantage (instead of dealing ouble damage).

Special – the attack can use a Bonus action to “Brace” as a maneuver to reduce these penalties to the attack roll to only -2, but its Speed drops to 0 until the start of its next turn. Also bracing grant advantage from all attacks against you until the start of your next turn.

For both Area of Effect and Autofire

Special – you do not include your Strength or Dexterity modifier nor do you add any range Feat or non-specific Talent (Grenade Expert) bonuses to damage to the above AOE damage types. You still add ½ your Heroic level to damage bonuses.

Cover: cover is very important in modern/sci-fi settings. Soft cover is provided by effects that obscure vision such as smoke, foliage, etc. These effects cannot stop an attack but rather obscure the creature making them harder to hit. Hard cover works similarly but can be destroyed by damage. Any hit that misses a target do to the cover bonus (including full cover if the attacker wishes to strike it) damages the cover instead. Otherwise cover has an AC of 10 to attack any. ½ Cover can absorb 25 HP, ¾ Cover can absorb 50 HP, Full Cover has 100 HP, and all have Resistance to damage. Full cover that is reduced to 50 HP only provides ¾ cover now, and ¾ cover reduces to 25 HP only provides ½ cover. When all the area’s HP are depleted it no longer provides cover. The material cover is made of also provides Hardness. Light materials (wood, dirt, etc.) provide 2 Hardness, Medium material (concrete, plastics, etc.) provide 4 Hardness, Heavy materials (reinforced concrete, steel, etc.) provides 8 Hardness, while Super-Heavy material (reinforced steel, etc.) provide 10 Hardness.

Special – it takes ½ movement to initially benefit from cover and when making “pop-out/up” attacks to gain the benefiting from either Full Cover or ¾.

Falling Prone: unless you are forced Prone, you must use 5 feet of Movement to fall to the ground prone. As a reaction, if you have at least 5 feet of movement remaining this turn or have not acted yet this turn and still have your reaction, you can fall prone (costing you 5 feet of movement) and gain Resistance to any damage from an AOE attack.

DROID 'SPECIES' TRAITS

Player character droids are created using the following rules.

ALL DROID TRAITS Note that droids do not start with a background, so their Degree provides their extra Skills and languages. Personality features are fairly limited for new or newly memory wiped models, but player Droids can chose or ‘develop’ them as they adventure (all droids tend to develop strange personality quirks the longer they are in service without a memory wipe).

Age: Droids do not age nor are they born. Most newly created character droids will be fairly recent factory models. Droid parts can and due suffer from wear and tear but with proper maintenance can last a really long time

Size: Depends on basic Model. Different sizes also have the following modifiers: Tiny size: +5 Stealth, -5 to Intimidate, Base Speed ½ ground Speed, Base Unarmed Damage 1. Small size: +3 Stealth, -3 Intimidate, Base Unarmed Damage 1d3. Medium size: no modifiers, Base Unarmed Damage 1d4. Large size: -3 to Stealth, +3 to Intimidate, Base ground Speed +5 feet, Base Unarmed Damage 1d6. Huge size: -5 to Stealth, +5 to Intimidate, Base ground Speed +15 feet, Base Unarmed Damage 1d10. Gargantuan size: -10 to Stealth, +10 to Intimidate, Base ground Speed +30 feet, Base Unarmed Damage 2d8. Colossal size: -20 to Stealth, +20 to Intimidate, Base ground Speed +60 feet, Base Unarmed Damage 2d12.

Special – Player characters can only be Small, Medium or Large in size.

Speed: depends locomotion system. Ground speed can be modified by Size.

Behavioral Inhibitors: Droids cannot intentionally harm a sentient living being or knowingly allow a sentient living being to be harmed or through inaction allow a sentient living being to be harmed. Furthermore, all droids must willing follow orders giving to them by their rightful owners, as long as those orders don’t require the droid to harm a sentient living being. Droids with the Heuristic processors mod, can sometimes violate these restrictions by creatively interpreting their behavioral inhibitions but it’s not common or easy. Droids with Combat processors are free of these limitation but are also highly restricted in their movements and where the law allows them to go. Droid’s can also be fitted with a Restraining Bolt, that they cannot willing remove. With a bolt in place, a user with a hand held controller unit can automatically impose the Paralyzed condition onto a droid with an Action (see Gear). Even without a restraining bolt or periodic memory wipes, most droids operate according to a rigid set of guidelines. A droid’s core programming – the part of its memory that can’t be wipes – provides it with a strict instructions on how to react to common circumstances, most of which resolve around obedience, safety, ethics and morality.

Constructs: Droids are machines and as such do not have a Constitution score (and don’t get bonus Hit Points). So with the array of only five Attributes to assign – 15, 14, 12, 11, and 10. Any class that would gain a proficiency to Constitution saves instead gains Dexterity or Wisdom (droid’s choice). Damage Threshold is determined by their Strength modifier only and to recover it can use the better of their Strength or Wisdom save. They are immune to disease and toxin poisons (both inhaled and injected), harmful atmosphere hazards (except Hazardous ‘corrosive’ ones and Vacuum) and do not need to breath, eat or drink water. Constitution saves against environmental effects use Strength instead. Droids are Resistance (PHB pg. 194) to Stun and Radiation damage. Droids take full damage from Ion weapons and after applying damage, double the amount when compared to the droid’s Damage Threshold to impose Reeling or Stunned conditions.

Nonliving: In addition to being immune to fear affects and mental affect bonuses or penalties. They have no connection to the Force and can take no Force talents, feats or powers. They still have Destiny Points and can take the Lucky feat.

Maintenance: Droids run off power instead of food and drink. Standard model droids are required to spend at least 4 continuous hours recharging after every 72 hours of continuous use (they can power down to save energy if no recharging is available). Otherwise they suffer the same effects as being Exhausted (PHB pg. 291), gaining one level for every 6 hours past the basic 72 hours of use. However they don’t die after acquiring six levels, they simply shut down and can suffer permanent damage to various systems. Every 4 hours of continuous recharging removes one level of this fatigue and a droid can spend as much time as it wishes to regain them all in one sitting (unlike meat-beings that only recover a few a day).

Repair: Droids cannot heal hit points naturally (although hero droids can still take Second Wind), nor can they gain temporary hit points from any Mind Effecting talent or feat or ability. Droids must be repaired with a DC15 Intelligence (Mechanic) skill check, after one hour of work they have 1d6+ the droids heroic level + the repairer’s proficiency bonus back in hit points. Workers can continue to making repairs on a droid as often as they wish to restore a droid back to full hit points. A droid can attempt to repair itself but its Intelligence (Mechanic) skill check is at a Disadvantage.

Memory: A droid’s proficiencies, feats and talents can be ‘reassigned’ with an DC15 Intelligence (Computer Use) skill check, allowing them to be reprogramed with different “Skill Sets” i.e. a Droid with Pistol weapon proficiency could be reprogramed, dropping this weapon proficiency and instead gain the Rifle proficiency or Skill Expertise in Dexterity (Initiative). The programmer must have access to a computer system with this new proficiency available or they can be purchased on the open market. Generally 500 credits for a basic knowledge, non-combat skill proficiency and at least 1,000 credits for a weapon or armor proficiency or skills like Initiative, or Deception. A droid hero could use its own Intelligence (Computer Use) skill to try and reprogram itself but it is at a Disadvantage to do so. Droid’s subject to a complete memory wipe revert back to basic model and lose all levels and abilities gained (becoming a 1st level character again).

Shutdown: A droid that is shutdown gains the Unconscious condition, and can take no action. Shutting down a willing droid is an Action. Shutting down an unwilling droid is more difficult, requiring that it be at least Grappled, and requiring an Intelligence (Mechanic) check against the droid’s Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics). If the droid is Paralyzed (with a restraining bolt) or in other similar situations, this check automatically succeeds. Droids can shut themselves down and ‘reactive’ itself at a pre-determined time if they want, so long as someone else does not come along and impose additional conditions. When shut down a droid does not drain power and can extend the duration before it requires recharging. It takes a full round to reactive, where the droid can take no actions (including bonus and reactions) and its Speed is 0 for that first round.

Skills and Proficiecnies: Droids normally cannot use skill or weapons without being first being proficient in it except for following – Dexterity (Acrobatics and Initiative), Strength (Athletics), Intelligence (Computer Use) and Wisdom (Perception). Droids with a Heuristic processor can use any skill without proficiency (as normal) and Simple weapons. Droids with the Combat processor can use Charisma (Intimidate) without proficiency and can use all types of weapons (still gain no proficiency bonus with the proficiency).

Building a Droid Character: The follow system is for creating Heroic character droids, not stock droids. As with other character types, droids have points to assign to their stats. As the droid only have 5 stats to worry about; for the array assign from – 15, 14, 12, 11, and 10. Instead of Background Droids choice their Degree. This grants them their basic ability modifiers, systems and proficiencies. They also have ‘additional mods’ that at character creation they can use to purchases upgrades and additional systems into their droid body for ‘free’. Other must be purchased with cash. Droids only gain their class’s starting gear and they cannot take any levels in the Jedi class.

BASIC MODS and SYSTEMS

Appendage: arms and probe type systems.

  • Basic Probe: Mod 0. Few droids have no actual manipulators. The bare minimum is a probe that can push or pull objects. Probes suffer a -1 to unarmed damage based on the droids size.
  • Instrument: Mod 0, Cost 200cr. Instruments are a step up from a simple probe. They might be designed to accomplish a specific task. Examples might be hypodermic syringes, etc. A few instruments are actually designed to clamp and thus hold objects, but are not fine manipulators.
  • Tool: Mod 1, Cost 200cr + cost of basic tool set or weapon cost. Tool appendages are somewhat sturdier then instruments but generally cannot be use to pick up items. Weapon mounts are also considered tool appendages. Most hand held tool sets and weapons can be added. To make it ‘hidden’ double the cost of the tool or weapon.
  • Grabbing Claw: Mod 1, Cost 250cr. Claws are simple grabbing appendages allowing the droid to grab and pick up most items, but they are not use for fine instrument use like picking a lock or something similar. When attempting to grapple (if the droid is allowed to try), it has advantage on its Strength roll to grab ahold or maintain one.
  • Two Arms/Hands: Mod 1, Cost 1,000cr. A droid is considered to have true hands if its gripping appendage includes at least three digits, one of which is opposable.
  • Communications: All droids are capable of emitting the sounds necessary to speak Binary, a language used by droids and computers to quickly transmit large amounts of information.
  • Vocabulatior: Mod 1, Cost +500cr. The droid equipped with a speaker system that enables it to emulate speech, rather than simply spouting machine code.

Locomotion

  • Stationary: Mod +1 additional mod (+2 for Huge, +3 for Gargantuan and +4 for Colossal size). No movement is allowed by this droid. Depending on circumstance, maybe be pushed or pulled by others. Cannot use Strength (Athletics) at all.
  • Wheeled: Mod 0. Base Speed 25 feet and difficult terrain uses 15 feet of move per square (instead of 10). If they do not have claw or arm appendages, they cannot use Strength (Athletics) to climb or swim. With a claw or arm appendages they can make these checks but at Disadvantage. Also if the droid with wheels acquires any ability that allows them to ignore difficult terrain, then instead they now only suffer the basic penalties from difficult terrain.
  • Tracked: Mod 0, Cost +500cr. Base Speed 25 feet and ignores the penalty for moving through difficult terrain on the ground (not in water, etc.). If they do not have claw or arm appendages, they cannot use Strength (Athletics) to climb or swim. With a claw or arm appendages they can make these checks but at Disadvantage.
  • Two Legs: Mod 1, Cost +500cr. Base Speed 30 feet.
  • Four Legs: Mod 2, Cost +1,000cr. Base Speed 45 feet and ignores the penalty for moving through difficult terrain on the ground.
  • Wall-Walker: requires 4-Leg locomotion. Mods 1, Cost +2,000cr. This droid acquires a Climb Speed of 30 feet and whenever it makes a Climb check that is 9 or less, treat it as if it rolled a 10 instead.
  • Hove/Repluser Propulsion: Mod 2, Cost +2,000cr. Base fly Speed 25 feet. Hovering droids use repluserlift technology to float slowly above the ground (within 10 feet). They can use their lifts to operate under water, but then normal difficulty terrain penalties apply. If they have claw or arm appendages, they can use Strength (Athletics) to make climb checks and they have advantage on these checks. Droids with this form of propulsion do not have any other form of locomotion (must now spend mods to gain it, minimum cost 1 mod).
  • Flying/Repluser Propulsion: Mods 3, Cost +5,000cr. Base fly Speed 60 feet and can reach low-orbit with flight systems. Droids with this form of propulsion do not have any other form of locomotion (unless they spend extra mods from the list above and with a minimum cost of 1 mod).
  • Water Jets: Mod 1, Cost 500cr. Base Swim speed 30 feet. Droids fitted to operate underwater.

Additional Add-ons for Locomotion

  • Climbing Claws: Mod 1, Cost +500cr. Claws designed to grip a surface can be added to a droid with Leg Walking locomotion system. Grant advantage on Strength (Athletics) checks when climbing.
  • Increase Locomotion Speed: Mod 1, Cost +500cr. Increases any one speed type (Ground, Fly, Swim, etc.) by +10 feet. Can be taken more than once, but for legged locomotion systems types, you can only take this a maximum of 2 times.
  • Jet boost: Mod 1, Cost +500cr. Similar to Jetpack. A bonus action to Active, grants a Flying Speed of 40 feet until the end of your turn. 10 charges and can be run continuously without requiring additional bonus action to activate. Special maneuvers require a Dexterity (Acrobatics) DC 10+. Can lift up extra 500lbs of weight (replacement fuel cell 100cr, 20lbs) Medium or smaller size only.
  • Magnetic Feet: Mod 1, Cost +250cr. Electromagnetic grippers enable a droid to cling to a ship’s hull, even when the ship is moving at high speed. Only droids with walking, wheeled or tracked locomotion can have this mod.

Processor

  • Basic Processor: Mod 0. Basic processors are not designed for creative thought or problem solving, and as such most droids interpret instructions and behavioral inhibitors very literally. Furthermore, basic processors are very limited in that the droid cannot perform most tasks that is was not programed for (i.e. see Skill checks above). Similarly, a basic processor does not allow a droid to wield or use any weapon, use any tools or drive any vehicles types that it is not proficient with. And the droids behavioral inhibitors prevent it from harming sentient living beings altogether.
  • Combat Processor: Mod 1, Cost +1,000cr. This basic processor has had its behavioral inhibitors removed. This allows the droid to harm sentient living beings, and the droid is allow to use weapons that it’s not proficient with. It also can the following skills without requiring it to be proficient with them – Dexterity (Stealth) and Charisma (Intimidate).
  • Heuristic Processor: Mods 1, Cost +4,000cr. This type of processor allows the droid to learn by doing, usually without instructions. The droid is able to reason through several optional situations and tasks and formulate the best approach. Because of this a droid with a heuristic processor may use skills untrained and weapons it is not proficient with, just as any other character. In addition, a droid with heuristic processor can creatively interpret its instructions, allowing it to complete tasks in manner that it deems appropriate. In some situations (GM’s call) a heuristic processor will also allow a droid to work around its behavioral inhibitor as long as it can justify the action. For example such a droid might justify harming another sentient if it would save additional life, etc. Over time a droid with a heuristic processor develops a unique personality based on experience. Because of this, memory wipes and restraining bolts are commonly used to ensure that a heuristic processor doesn’t allow the droid to stray too far from its intended purpose.
A droid can have both the Heuristic and Combat Processor (uses 2 mods and costs 5,000cr.).

OTHER SYSTEMS

  • Armor Plating: Droids cannot wear normal armor. Instead droids can be equipment with built in armor that provides an armor bonus to Reflex defense just as normal armor does for a wearer. Light Armor – Mod: 1, Cost +2,000cr [Armor Class Rating 13 + Dex or Int modifier, +2 to Damage Threshold, Wt. 10lbs]. Medium Armor – Mod: 2, Cost +5,000cr [Armor Class Rating 16 + Dex or Int modifier (max 2), Disadvantage to Stealth, +4 to Damage Threshold, Wt. 20lbs]. Heavy Armor – Mod: 3, Cost +10,000cr [Armor Class Rating 19, Disadvantage to Stealth, +8 to Damage Threshold, Wt. 40lbs]. These armor require the droid to be proficient with its type to gain the full benefits as with normal armor. In all other regard tread droid armor and normal armor.
  • Built In Communicator: Mod 0, Cost +100cr. (Short-range Comlink). Mod 1, Cost: +250cr. (Long-range Comlink). These comlinks provide a droid with hands-free basic communications. They can include normal Comlink features at the base cost (see Equipment).
  • Back-up Battery: Mod 1, Cost +500cr. A droid with a backup battery can operate twice as long as normal before requiring recharging (144 hours instead of 72). It still only requires 4 hours or continuous recharging to get back to full power (see Maintenance above)
  • Diagnostic Package: Mod 1, Cost +500cr. Some droids are equipped to perform diagnostics, either as an aid to a technician or a general safety feature. The diagnostic package grants the droid advantage on one type of Tools kit (i.e. Repair Kit, Security kit, etc. Pick one; and the droid can take this package more than once to gain the benefit with an additional tool type).
  • Hauler: Mod 1, Cost +500cr. With reinforced chassis the droid is considered one step larger when it comes to encumbrance and how much it can push, carry and pull.
  • Hidden Restrictor: Mod 1, Cost +1,000cr (illegal in most systems). With a hidden restrictor modifier a droid is considered immunity to the effects of a Restraining Bolt. A droid that use Deception and attempt to pretend it still suffers from this affects.
  • Locked Access: Mod 1, Cost +500cr. A droid with the locked access modifier is immunity to normal shutdown by others (if it can resist, you cannot shut down an unwilling droid with this modifier). If it is Paralyzed, one can attempt to shut the droid down but they are at a disadvantage to this roll (see Shutdown above)
  • Memory Backup: Mod 1, Cost +500cr. This allows a droid to back up its personality and abilities offline somewhere. If ever subject to a memory wipe, this allows it to restore its previous levels and abilities, if it regains access to this memory.
  • Memory Storage: Mod 1, Cost +500cr. This enhancer allows a navcomputer enhanced droid to store an additional +5 hyperspace routes in its internal memory. It can be purchased additional time at the same benefit, Mod and Cost.
  • Navcomputer: Mod 1, Cost +2,500cr. This system allows the droid to act as a starship navcomputer and program jumps to hyperspace. A small sized droid can only ten jump coordinates internally without additional Memory enhancers.
  • Reinforced Structure: Mod: 1, Cost: +1,000cr. With electronic hardening and reinforcement, droids with this modification take only ½ damage from Ion weapons and do not ‘double’ damage affect when compared against their Damage Threshold to impose Reeling or Stunned.
  • Size: Most droids are considered medium sized. For droid structures of a different size use the follow costs and mods. Tiny size – Mod 2, Cost ¼ base cost. Small size – Mod 1, Cost ½ base cost. Large size – Mod gain +1 additional mod, Cost +2,500cr. Huge size – Mod gain +2 additional mods, Cost +5,000cr. Gargantuan size – Mod gain +4 additional mods, Cost +10,000cr. Colossal size – Mod gain +6 additional mods, Cost +20,00cr.
  • Translator Unit: Mod 1, Cost +250cr (basic DC 20). Mod 2, Cost +500cr (intermediate DC18). Mod 3, Cost +1,000cr (complex DC15). Mod 4, Cost +2,000cr (advance DC10). With a Translator unit a droid can attempt to understand any language it encounters (hears or reads). Make an Intelligence ability check (with proficiency bonus) against the unit’s DC to know if the unit can understand and translate a particular unknown language.
  • Vacuumed Sealed Systems: Mod 1, Cost +500cr. This mod allows a droid to operate in the harsh conditions of a vacuum without any ill effects. It is now immune to all environmental conditions including when in space.
  • Visual Enhancements: Mod 1 each, Cost +500cr each. With each upgrade a droid gains one of the following – Low-light Vision; Darkvision 60ft (can be taken a second time to extend out to 120ft); Advantage on Wisdom (Perception) sight or hearing (pick one) checks; Blindsight 30ft (Eco-location Scanner; can be taken a second time to extend out to 60ft); Target Acquisition (a droid can move up to ½ its Speed and still be able to take the Aim maneuver); Telescopic Vision (can see about four times as far, does not take disadvantage on making long range attacks with handheld weapon ranged attacks).

TALENTS

JEDI CONSULAR TALENT TREE

  • Adept Negotiator. You have Advantage on Charisma (Persuasion) skill checks
  • Force Adviser. When granting Advantage to a target with Aiding Another it add your Intelligence, Wisdom or Charisma modifier (your choice) to their final result. If you want you spend a Destiny Point and add the result of this roll to your ally’s check total. You can grant an ally Advantage even if you don’t have that skill. This cannot apply to an Attack check. This is a mind-altering effect.
  • Force Persuasion. The Force can influence the weak minded. You can force one target within 10 feet to make a Charisma save. If the target fails it gains the Charmed condition towards you so long as you remain close by and continue talking to the target (within 10 feet). If anyone takes a hostile or attack action against the target the effect ends immediately. This is a mind-altering effect.

SKILLS

FEATS

GENERIC NONFORCE TALENTS

THE FORCE

GEAR AND EQUIPMENT

Characters cannot start with Military or Illegal grade gear or weapons at character creations unless its’ part of bas gear or a with the generic Connection talent. Afterwards, characters can purchasing such gear but must first find dealers to make these purchases (with a Gather Information check, DC 15 -25). On average it takes 1d6 hours to find a Licensed items dealer, 4d6 hours for Restricted and 2d6 days for Illegal or Military item dealers. Licensed items costs cost 20% more for the license fee, Restricted items cost 50% more while Illegal or Military cost 100% to 200% more.

Weapons

NEW WEAPON PROPERTIES

  • Autofire – these weapons can fire an Area of Affect (Autofire) attack by expelling 10 rounds. It cannot use this property if the weapon does not have 10 rounds.
  • Autofire only – these weapons fire the 10 shot autofire. If the weapon does not have 10 rounds it cannot fire.
  • Autofire, Heavy – these weapons fire 20 shots autofire. If the weapon does not have 20 rounds it cannot fire.
  • Double Weapons – lethal on both ends. Treat these weapons as two light weapons (Two Weapon Fighting PHB pg. 195).
  • Energy – deals weapon energy damage for types of resistance, vulnerability, etc.
  • Fixed – fixed weapons must be mounted onto a vehicle or use a semi-portable tripod (tripod for a heavy weapon weights 80lbs by them-selves and cost 500cr. It take 3 Actions to set or break down a tripod before it can be fired).
  • Heavy Damage –ignores Resistance to damage provided by Cover and Vehicles.
  • Ion damage – these types of weapons are not as affective against living creatures, dealing only ½ damage. Verses droids, vehicles and electronics, after modifiers have been applied, double the damage vs. its Damage Threshold to impose the Reeling condition.
  • Reload – it requires a Bonus action or an Action reload a spent power cell (listed as ‘pc’; wielder’s choice). If there is no number before the cell listing then it should be changed or recharged between adventures. If it is listed as ‘each’ than each round takes one ( * Action or Bonus action to reload.
  • Stun Setting – many weapons can be ‘set to stun’ to deal non-lethal damage. When a weapon is set to “Stun” it deals no damage and cannot kill a target (ranged or melee). Instead the target must make a Constitution or Wisdom save (whichever is better) equal to ½ the damage that was dealt (minimum DC10 no maximum) or it gains the Stunned Condition, falling prone and dropping anything it is carrying. On its turn, as a Full Round Action, the target makes a new save against the same DC. Failure means it is still stunned. The target can make a new save on each of its rounds. Success ends the condition. If the original damage did twice the target’s Damage Threshold it instead automatically gains the Unconscious Condition for 1d4+1 minutes.
An adjacent ally with a Medicine Kit and who is proficient with Medicine can attempt to wake the target early. With an Action it makes a Medicine check with a DC against the target’s saving throw DC. A success ends either condition on the target.
  • Knockout (PHB pg. 196): You cannot normally use the knockout option when you reduce a creature to 0 hit points with a lightsaber and most, non-stun advanced melee weapons.
