Character Archetypes

This is a collection of archetypes suitable as NPCs. In the case of heroic characters, such as the Jedi archetypes, they could also serve as quick-start PCs. I have striven in each case for a balance between ease of use and the inclusion of useful signature abilities that serve to distinguish one character from another. Many of these archetypes are based on or inspired by Star Wars miniatures, making them simple to represent.

Imperial

Rebel Alliance

Republic

Fringe

Duros
 
Expert Pilot: A Duros who is trained in Pilot receives Skill Focus (Pilot) as a bonus feat. A Duros may choose to reroll any Use Computer check to chart a course through hyperspace, but the result of the reroll must be accepted even if it is worse. This replaces the Expert Pilot trait in Saga.
