Considering how often a single Bounty Hunter finds himself faced with terrible odds, it’s not surprising how many specialize in high-tech gear and weapons. The Gadgeteer excels at presenting himself as a one-person battle force.

From the Kage Warriors of Quarzite to the Enforcers of Black Sun, organizations and cultures across the galaxy have developed their own unique hand-to-had combat styles to use their species’ physiology to greatest effect. Over decades, centuries, and millennia, these combat forms become more than mere means of inflicting violence. They become a Martial Art.

To catch a target, a Bounty Hunter must be fast, and even the swiftest sentient being cannot hope to outrace a speeder or starship on foot. An Operator prefers to undertake all pursuits from within a vehicle or spacecraft, keeping the target in sight, with deft maneuvering and on the run with withering firepower. In a high-speed change, few characters can match an Operator’s expertise.

Not all debts need to be settled with blasters. Sometimes, a Bounty Hunter just needs to do some legwork, find a target, and get that individual to pay what is owed with a few well-chosen words. This is the specialty of Skip Tracers, who take on commissions to seek out people with unpaid debys from clients who wish to have items returned.

Beyond Civilization, in the farthest reaches of the galaxy, there are places where few (if any) sentients have ever trodden the ground. Places like these are ideal hiding places for those fleeing the law or retribution for their actions. Places like these are where Bounty Hunters who specialize as Survivalists thrive.

Entrepreneurs, know that there is only one thing worth investing in-the future. Entrepreneurs are not unlike explorers in the world of business; they want to be the first to open up new markets, to revultionize industrual practices, or to create new service industries people haven’t realized they needed, but once sampled, cannot live without.

Criminals might run and criminals might hide, but the Marshal won’t rest until he drags them back to town in binders. The presence of a strong Marshal is often the only thing keeping a colony from plunging into chaos. The Marshal has a gift for extracting information from witnesses and confessions from criminals.

Tarookarwoo is always seen wearing his wampa skinned hat.When a Wookiee has suffered any wounds, he deals +1 damage to Brawl and Melee attacks. When a Wookiee is Critically Injured, he instead deals +2 damage to Brawl and Melee attacks.

At first, the idea of a Scholar wandering with a bunch of ne’er-do-wells in the Outer Rim might seem a bit odd, if not downright ridiculous. However, with all of the dangers and wonders of “a thousand, thousand words,” having someone around who actually knows something more than how to reload a heavy blaster could be exceedingly usefule under any number of circumstances.

Sanna grew up on Coruscant as a well educated Scholar in the Galactic Empire. Her studies focused on ancient lore and lost civilizations. With much of the occult being controled by the Galactic Empire she left to the outer rim to catalog all of these findings before the Empire destoryed and covered up the findings. She partnered with a Bounty Hunter known as Lor San Tekka. He uncovered and she cataloged. Another partner was Mika Grey who did not like Sanna much feeling she was scum of the Core. The two became rivals always trying to one up the other.

With the skills of a survivalist, the instincts of a bounty hunter, and the courage of a madman, the Big-Game Hunter tends to baffle everyone with his desire to actively track down, confront, and do battle with the most terrifying creatures in the galaxy. He understands and respects the environments he must contend with in order to pursue his quarry, yet he is less interested in where he is going than in what he is going to kill when he gets there.

Pilots are great for traveling from one system to another , but it’s the Drivers that move beings around once they hit dirtside. While nearly anyone can manage the basics of a ground vehicle or a speeder, a Driver is priceless when the blaster bolts start flying or the weather turns particularly nasty. It’s one thing to know how to go forward and back and how to apply the breaks. It’s another ting entirely to know how far one can flip a speeder over to one side without stalling while skirting the wall of a canyon.

Part negotiator, part astrogator, and savvy in the ways of the galaxy beyond the Core Worlds, the Fringer is a jack-of-all-trades. He focuses on knowing how to find what he needs and how to get where he needs to go. He’s got a gift of gabe when it’s time to talk, and the awarenesss and reflexes to maneuver away when it’s time to run.

There’s finding a planet, and then there’s going down to the planet and seeing what’s what. The Scout is the professional for the task, trained to survey and survive, gathering all of the information he can while keeping his head attached to his body. While bravery in combath is one thing, there can be no denying the fearlessness of anyone willing to touvh down on a completely unknown planet and trudge about with onyl scanners and his wits to discover its secrets.

Those seeking to take what they discover as they explore the Outer Rim and beyond (and turn a serious profit from it) are Traders. For a Trader, a new planet represents nigh-infinite ptential for resource exploitation, while a new culture or hidden community is a customer base just begging for his particular talents.

Demolitionists are masters of explosives and incendiary devices. Often seen as dangerous pyromaniacs, most Demolitionists possess a deep understanding of the physics beind combustion and explosion on an intuitive level as well as an academic once. They are not mindless destroyers, but artists.

Enforcers know that achieving results does not always require violence-sometimes the threat of it is enough. Unlike other Hired Guns, Enforcers focus on social interactions as much as combat. They can handle themselves in a fight, to be sure, but prefer to accomplish their objectives thorugh savvy, intimidation, blackmail, and straightforward threats.

For a Heavy, size really does matter. These characters prefer to use the biggest guns possible, and usually have the physique to match. Heavies are often physically impressive, a necessity for effectively wielding the heaviest manportable weapons. Heavies are inevitably found at the front lines in combat.

Marauders don’t necessarily mind shooting their opponents, but they would much rather get mixed up in a melee, weapons in hand, smashing and slashing their way through. Marauders are tough-probably the toughest combatants in any comflict. They tend to take a great deal of punishment while dealing out far more to any who dare go against them.

If the Mercenary Soldier is the warefare expert. An adept of both ranged combat and military tactics, he is a leader of warriors n combat and a deadly combatant himself.

When the chips are down, the Gambler holds all the cards. Like the devious Thief, the Gambler loves misleading others and taking big risks to profit. Like the clever Trader, the Gambler has a knack for convincing others to part with their valuables for next to nothing. The hambler has a unique variety of tricks up his sleeve to deceive tor misdirect opponents.

The Outer Rim is an immense region of countless worlds, sometimes lawless but always dangerous. Life on the galactic frontier teems with vicious creatures and heartless criminals who whould not thing twice about gunning down innocent civilians. Bred for conflict and necesity, this is the galaxy wehre the Gunslinger lives and breathes.

Plenty of folks know how to fly a starship, but a Smuggler who specializes as a Pilot develops a relationship with his ship, and it becomes an extension of his wit and his will. He can make a plodding old transport run far above its performace ratings, and given time and some modifications, he can turn it into on eof the fleetest and most maneuverable craft ever to take to the stars.

Part con artist, part gunslinger, and part cantina brawler, the Scoundrel is quick-witted, quick to his feet, and quick to get himself into a great deal of troble at the drop of a hat. He doesn’t care one whit for rules or laws, except where he can use them to work an angle that either nets him a lot of credits or brings down an enemy.

The Thief is a covert operative. His ideal circumstance is to get into places blocked to others, grab things he’s no supposed to have, and get out without anyone ever knowing he was there. If he can sell what he grabbed for a tidy sum, that makes for a perfect day.

Droids are prevalent across the galaxy, from the shining spheres of the Core to the dingy backwater worlds far from the center’s light. To most inhabitants of the galaxy, droids are little more than particularly complex tools. However, some organic sentients find a kinship with these mechancial beings, seeing a spark of life in them beyond their shels and circuitry. Whether or not they treat the droids around them as mere objects or as sentient beings, Droid Techs possess an unparalleled skill at inventing, repairing, and dealing with droids.

Depending on who asked, Mechanics are either the glue that holds everything together or the grease that makes it all go. Most Mechanics would tell you they do both, and then go back to work.

If someone keeps disassembling and reassembling the rest of the crew’s weapons, armor, and gear, without permission, it’s a safe bvet that the culprit is the team’s Technician. If those items actually work better afterward, that Technician might well be a Modder. Modders are chronic tinkerers, and most Modders would rather add features to machines they already have than build new ones. By turning their engineering prowess toward relentlessly repairing, optimizing, testing, calibrating, and re-repairing mechanisms around them, Modders make any piece of technology their own.

Outlaw Techs are the specialists other call on when they want something out of the ordinary. A blaster that works beyond factory tolerances? No problem. A trasponder that identifies a smugler’s freighters as a religious pilgrimage craft? It’ll cost a few credits, but sure. A protocol droid altered to carry out an assassination? Just how big is the credit line, anyway?

For the Slicer, a computer or datapad is just a puzzle to solve with prizes for doing so. “Slicing” is the term used for the invasive efforts to steal or alter data in a system. With practically the entire galaxy wired to computerized systems, Slicers are extremely valuable people to know, and dangerous to cross.
