Where are all of the Xmen games? Deadpool just came out on video and Xmen Apocalypse is about to come out. I was expecting more hype.

@Apollosarchersounds great.
@SirkaithethirdIt would definately make sense for the Empire to infiltrate the Rebellion, so sure. go ahead.
@Inkwellsure, an ex CIS officer could work.
@InkwellYou'd need a good reason to have an archaic one (one that was on par with a lightsaber), but the modern ones seem to just be expensive and fairly rare, but not almost impossible to get.

@BishopThat seems a bit OP for a starting character, but I could let the group go to Malastare to hunt one during the RP.
@BishopI'm not familiar with Zillo beasts. I'll have to look it up.
@BishopA cyborg that's mostly robotic is fine.

The thing about lightsabers is that you have to use the Force to create them (at least in Legends), so, while anyone could put the parts together, the efficiency would be too horrible for it to work properly unless you infused it with the Force. This infusion is what tied a Jedi to their Lightsaber, and gets rid of tiny imperfections that kill the efficiency.

In fact, in "I, Jedi" Corran Horn had to meditate on his newly constructed lightsaber for several days to make it work, even though the components were a few hundred credits worth of salvage and a crystal from a jeweled goblet.

Edit: We could say that you have an inferior version of a lightsaber (less damage, low battery life) if you wanted to just say you found the schematics and built one.
If they were easy to make, though, I feel like they would have been more common.
@Shadow DaedalusI like both of the characters, but when you adapt them just remember that I don't want anyone with any actual Force Training, as they would have been hunted down by the Empire and would be in hiding. Also, if there were any that were willing to fight the Empire, I doubt they would be in hiding until now.

I want to keep to the plot of the original as much as possible, so I don't want anyone that couldn't believably be in the original movie in some form.

That said, a Miraluka would be able to see through the Force, so maybe they could be pretending to be human or just only know that one Force trick. Other characters can have minor tricks that Force Sensitives can have, but actual trained powers and lightsaber training doesn't fit with the universe.

There would be Lightsabers on the black market and kept as heirlooms, etc. So if anyone can come up with a good reason for their character to already have one (like how Boba Fett had one), I'll allow it.
@Burning Kittyalso Jorus C'Boath
But none of those were mentioned in the original trilogy, so I don't want to use them unless I have too.
Maybe if you were trained by Vader or Palpatine as an Inquizitor, but even that is kind of pushing it.

This video about that is what gave me the idea for this RP.
@BrokenWashingThat'd be great. Any idea who you'd want to play?
