The Star Wars universe is filled to the brim with heroes. Slaves and farmboys turned Jedi to scruffy smugglers with hearts of gold, these heroes have a massive impact on the galaxy. But what about the regular joes? What about the guys who aren't interested in saving the universe from evil, the guys just out there to make their way in the galaxy?
The game would be set in either the Dark Times or Rebellion eras, and the player characters wouldn't be Jedi or decorated heroes, or anything of the sort. The characters would be a bit more down-to-earth. They may harbor a hatred for the oppressive Imperial government, but their priorities would lie more in the way of getting by than any grand plans they may have for setting the galaxy free from the shackles of Imperial rule. Sure, they might work for the Alliance or some other rebellious groups, but it's the draw of credits, not altruism that makes such a job appealing.
I tried this idea on another forum. It was a fail.. Stupid noobs joined and disappeared. Also trying it with a group in tabletop, and we'll see where that gets me.
