Element Master 01-14-07, 10:22 PM	My friend and I just started a new campaign. I had just watched Revenge of the Sith and wanted the overall villain to be Jedi-like. I know that there is a Star Wars game already, but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to portray the classic Jedi abilities in FR terms. Thanks in advance

Lord Karsus 01-15-07, 01:07 AM	wizard/monk or wizard fighter seems your best bet -No, not Wizard. If you are intent on using the Arcane, it'd gotta be Sorcerer. They have the entire, "It comes from me" thing going on, whereas Wizards don't.

_SIN_ 01-16-07, 06:16 PM	Surely a Psionicist/fighter is much more logical than a magic wielder?... For starters, it'd be hard to try to 'jedi mind-trick' someone when you're pulling spell components out, mixing them, crushing them, burning them etc, all the while chanting and waving ones arms, hands and fingers all about the place???.....
Element Master 01-16-07, 06:29 PM	Thanks all. I had thought of taking the right monk features and plugging them into a class progression, but I had been trying to stay away from becoming an outsider and from damage reduction. One thing that nobody mentioned; what about the lightsaber and/or Sith sword?
Lord Karsus 01-16-07, 06:57 PM	what about the lightsaber and/or Sith sword? -Saber (FRCS), with the Brilliant Energy enchantment.
_SIN_ 01-16-07, 07:08 PM	You could add a special to the weapon too - cauterise wound! I'd settle for a monk/psionicist as the class. Another thought... What about making the character planetouched? That way your wannabe Sith lord can come complete with his stumpy little horns and/or other 'demonic' physical traits?...
