I’m so happy to see this. I try to keep most of my world building behind the curtain so lore dump eps can feel weird. Thank you for saying this.
Sorry, I need everything I have left 😂

… getting to mod your light saber to have a blaster in the hilt. HELL YEAH. You also get armor 🤘🏻. The Temptation is a fun way to push this playbook towards their story. They have much different thematic temptations than the more grandiose Learners and Masters. Down to earth Jedi stories.

Forgot to mention the Scout has my favorite Advanced Improvement. Inspired directly by Fennec Shand blasting pirates point blank with her long range targeting blaster. So friggin cool man….
Algo-be-damned, here’s the second of these lil design journal posts today since I missed one over the weekend. Another of the “KOTOR 6” and the only one of the Jedi that did not get renamed. This one felt like it could have been cut, but I felt like it has huge untapped potential for role players.
You are the Scout. What are you searching for? What has driven you to strive to be the fastest? The most accurate? At the very least, you get the coolest gear 😅
