STAR WARS

Edge of the Empire: Part VI

“A MATTER OF LUCK”


As the battle between the REBEL ALLIANCE, and the EMPIRE escalates,
those on the fringes of society struggle to survive.

Having evaded their enemies and won their freedom, the intrepid crew of the KRAYT FANG is finally in the clear. Or so it seems…

Their new mission is simple: To capture an enemy of BARGO THE HUTT and bring him in for questioning. But things get complicated when a beloved mentor comes down with a mysterious illness and an old enemy returns from the dead to wreak his revenge!

Their only hope may rest with the man they were sent to capture, a gambler, smuggler and "galactic entrepreneur" by the name of LANDO CALRISSIAN…


MEET THE CREW:

Pash: He's a dashing and devious Human smuggler and pilot with a nose for trouble and an eye for the ladies!

Oskara: She's a loyal but deadly Twi-Lek bounty hunter with an icy disposition and an itchy trigger finger.

Lowhhrick: He's a fiercely honorable Wookie ex-gladiator with a heart of vengeance and a vibro-axe to grind.

41-VEX: A brilliant and versatile medical Droid who moonlights as a mechanic and droid-equality activist.

Mathus: He's a gifted Human technician, slicer, outlaw, and all around nice guy (with electro-powered punch gloves!).

Sasha: She's a mysterious eagle-eyed Human scout and former Rebel with a checkered past and a head full of secrets.


Star Wars: A Matter of Luck is a game for 3-5 players and will take place Sunday, May 3rd at 12:00.

Savage Samurai: Operation Airship!

The 2nd annual Invention and Innovation Expo is underway! It is a time when even North and South are supposed to put aside their differences to focus on the betterment of humankind. Countless wondrous items are on display from portable walls, to experimental super-sandals, to whirring clockwork warriors, the Expo's got it all. 

But one invention casts a shadow over them all; literally! The Roc Zaibatsu's latest invention, the thermal airship Horizon, is majestic to behold. So much so that Emperor Rinkan of the U.N.C. has paid a mind-boggling fortune for it. But he wasn't the only one who wanted it. Scorpion spies are ready to snatch this prize from the Emperor's grasp. Our heroes must mount a desperate counter-intelligence operation to stop the Scorpion plot before it's too late! It's spy vs. spy high in the sky, next time on Savage Samurai...

Hello all,

Operation Airship is an adventure for 3-4 Northern or neutral characters. It will take place Sunday Feb 15th at 12:00 noon. I will have pre-constructed characters available, or you can bring your own.

See you then!

D&D: We Be Goblins!

We be goblins! We make raid!
Put the longshanks to the blade!
Burn them up from feet to head,
Make them hurt, then make them dead!

Cut the parents into ham,
Smush the babies into jam,
All the rest in pot get stewed,
We be goblins--you be food!

Deep in the Brinestump swamp lives the primitive and superstitious goblin tribe known as the Licktoads. When a valuable stash of burny-burny fireworks is discovered, four goblin "heroes" are chosen to recover it: Reta Bigbad (the fighter), Chuffy Lickwound (the rogue), Poog of Zarongel (the cleric), and Mogmurch (the alchemist). But many horrors lurk in the swamp. Stuff like dogs and horses and even the dread spider known as Lotslegs-Eat-Goblin-Babies-Many!

This is a silly little free Pathfinder adventure that I have adapted to 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons. I know a lot of people will be absorbed with sportsball, but for those of us who aren't, I wanted to give the opportunity to roll some dice and have some laughs.

The game will be Sunday, Feb 1st at 12:00 noon and has 4 slots available. If sportsball fans and/or more than 4 people want to play, let me know, and I will schedule another one for another weekend.
