Zallec Kes, Retired Imperial Captain (Star Wars RPG, WEG d6)

Back to character list

Type: Retired Imperial Captain

Gender/Species: human male

Born: 57 BBY (character status at 4 BBY)

Height: 175cm

Weight: 77kg

Background: Zallec had served in a local system defense force for a decade and a half when the Trade Federation blockaded Naboo. He survived the Clone Wars mostly by running away, since the aged and vastly outgunned ships of his system were no match for anything the Confederacy put in space.  (mostly, but sometimes running wasn't possible). When the Imperial Moff was installed in Zallec's sector they scrapped all remaining local forces, and nationalized select useful resources, including Zallec. All told, it wasn't a bad career. Except for the constant pressure to compromise his personal beliefs and execute swift, brutal, Imperial justice. 

Physical Description: Nondescript human male of average colouration, build, features, moderately dark, short hair turning either grey or white and receding from a mostly normally shaped forehead. Nothing particularly remarkable regarding human variations. 

Dexterity: 2d+2

  • blaster: 3d
  • dodge: 3d

Perception: 3d+1

  • command: 4d
  • bargain: 4d
  • persuasion: 4d

Knowledge: 3d

  • bureaucracy: 4d
  • planetary systems: 4d
  • streetwise: 4d

Strength: 2d+1

Mechanical: 3d+2

  • starship piloting: 4d
  • capital ship piloting: 4d

Technical: 3d

  • security: 3d+1

Equipment: Imperial Navy uniform (slightly out of date), blaster, 2000 cr

Personality: Learned to stay silent in presence of authority, but also how to simultaneously praise and criticize when pushed for an opinion. Always gives two sides of an argument, then quotes regulations. There are few regulations in the Rebellion, so if he thinks it can hurt the empire, and they can get away with it, he advocates for that. Doesn't have family to lose, as he spent his life in the star navy. Doesn't want to get attached to his fellow rebels.

Objectives: Pull down the Empire, or at least cause it to stumble.

Quote: "Now repeat that back to me."

Connections: He organized a quiet fifth column amongst a meagre handful of other disaffected local defense force staff and defected to the nascent rebellion.

Avran the Barbarian (OSE-A)

2025 Character Creation Challenge Back to the character list. Name: Avran Class: Barbarian Level: 1 Title: None. He eschews any such affectation, as he knows he is ignorant of the world and has yet to prove his mettle through any great feats. Alignment: Chaotic Languages: Chaotic AL, Common Story So Far: Before leaving his community, Avran worked on the small farm of a relative in his clan's territories while others were away raiding, feuding, or working as sell swords to foreign potentates. None of it, not the fighting, the farming, or any other option available to the youth, held any interest or value. Thus, after wondering for years as each boat left for foreign shores, he decided to seek something, anything, that could stir his heart, his courage, his blood, in any way.  Ability Scores: Strength: 14 Intelligence: 8 Wisdom: 9 Dexterity: 11 Constitution: 10 Charisma: 6 (max retainers = 3, loyalty = 6) Saving Throws: Death/Poison: 10 Magic Wands: 13 Paralysis/Petrifica...

Merrit Alban Beech, Half-Living (Dead Reign, Palladium Books)

Back to the character list Startlingly tall, skinny, pale, cool skin, Merritt appears as though he just died and no one bothered to tell him he shouldn't be walking around. Some wiseacres have said he looks a lot better now than he did in the office. Merritt's memories of before near-death are still there, but he doesn't remember being what you'd call happy. There are no moments he can point to and say, there, that was when he felt joy. But he's not sure if he's unhappy now or preferred whatever living hell he was consigned to previously. He does know that he feels a visceral terror thinking about the other side of near-death or that anyone would become like him or complete the passage, so that's what he dedicates himself to preventing. Never offer Merritt a cup of Java.  Characteristics: Sex: Male-ish, he's not alive and not dead, sex is kind of a moot point, a philosophical issue perhaps, but largely irrelevant to Merritt at this point. Age: 34 Height:...
