weapon is slightly smaller than a grown human's hand and
roughly as thick as a common datapad. It is constructed
of an inert, light-absorbing fibermesh polycarbonate with
shielded internals, making an already dirficult-to-detecl
weapon nearly impossible to find when concealed properly
The weapon's standard ammunition is a solid, spin-stabilized,
razor-sharp ferroceramic dart that can punch through nearly
any personal armor or shield with ease.
A needler removes all added by a personal deflector
shield. Anyone searching an individual carrying a concealed
needler adds to her Perception check to find the weapon

ZEPHYR STEALTH SUIT

Stealth suits, produced by companies like Ayel1xe Krongb1 g
Textiles and Creshaldyne, are designed to make a wearerd
cult or impossible to detect by visual or technolog1cal means
Co.nstructed from a wide array of materials and usrng techn0
ogres such as optical camouflage, silhouette breakers. }1e
ma_l sinks, and sound deadeners, they render a wearer nea
1nv1s1ble under the right circumstances. Zephyrs are acom"l
type of such stealth wear for those who often perform c. e
rn1ss1ons, _and are favored amongst urban vigilantes r

CQ-3.BD IUIULTISPECTRUIUI
DISGUISE SUITE

C-SC droids are equipped with C0-3.80 MDS, a

cutting edge piece of espionage tech . The MDS
is a combination of advanced , high-definition,
miniaturized holoprojectors, voice modulators,
scanners, and bio-sign generators that allows
the droids to take on the appearance of nearly
any sentient being in the galaxy. Combined with
their programming and exhaustive cultural and
behavioral databases, the MDS makes TC-SC droids
almost impossible to detect except under the most
intense and invasive scrutiny. Piercing the illusion
created by a functioning multispectrum disguise
suite and detecting the droid for what it is requires
a Formidable (<) <) <) <) <)) Perception check.

The ir innocuous looks and seemingly meek personal1t es

allows TC-SC droids to take on the appearance of nearl y ari~
species in the galaxy. Combined with their programm ing
and given time to observe and study a target, these dro ids
can even impersonate spec ific ind1v1duals.
Whil e they are qui te effec ti ve and dangerous. TC-SC dro1ds

GPE-3130
Galactic Power Engineenng's 31 30-senes factor\ custc~
is one of L/1e stranger Podracers currently on the mar~et
Designed for straight-line speed and little else, the 315L
1s powered by a pair of GPE ThrustMaster 9000 ae 1osp1 e
rocket engines augmented by a pair of smaller ramJe' ergines
on nacelle-mounted outriggers. The aerospike engines prov dt
p1i111ary th1-ust, while the ramjets provide sl1ort bursts of boost
and powe1 the multitude of attitude jets scattered arouno
the racer's hull. It 1s an awkward-looking vehicle with ts tlat
nosed, wedge-shaped engines and almost comical srra e
outrigger-mounted ramjets, but its looks are deceiving T~e
31 30 is an absolute terror on open, high-speed tracks, tr
long straightaways and broad, gentle curves.

LIGHTSABER HILT CRAFTING

ightsabers are the mythic weapons of powerful Force wielders, and mastery of these weapons 1s as much a spiritual

look deep within themselves and undergo cha llenges Lo find

WHAT ABOUT CRYSTALS?

yber crystals, the mystical gemstones that are

used to create a lightsaber blade, cannot be
made. Instead, they must be sought out, usually
though journeys of self-discovery to remote locations. In the era of the Republic, Padawans traveled
to llum and other sacred sites to acquire their kyber
crystals. Now, there are no clear paths to finding a
lightsaber crystal, and aspirants must rely upon the
Force to guide them to what they need.

For game purposes, this means that these crafting

rules only provide a lightsaber hilt, which is incapable of producing a blade without a crystal. The
lightsaber profiles provided here for the weapons
assume that it is installed with an unmodified llum
crystal (see page 197 of the FoRcE AND DESTINY Core
Rulebook); if no crystal installed, use the Hilt profile instead. Once the hilt is crafted and a kyber
crystal acquired, the intended wielder of the light
saber must become personally attuned to the crysl .a~d
. install it. For more on acquiring and install
g hghtsaber crystals, see page 195 of the foRce
o D ESTINY Core Rulebook.

to realize who or what has moved against them
\Vhen designing adventures for Sentinels, Game Masters
should keep in mind that Sentinels rely on stea lll1 , cunning,
creative use of the Force, and a w1ll111g11ess to make d1fflcull
moral choices to overcome tl1e challenges t11ey face To tl11s
end, when designing ad,entures centered arnund Sentinel
characters, the GM sl1ould prO\ 1de ample opportu111t1es fo1
these characters to make use of t11e11 ,a11ous c;k1lls and ab1 l1 ties, but still allow for Playe1 Cl1a1 acte1 c1 ea LI\ 1L\ and quick
thinking . If the players come up 1, 1tl1 a 11e1, and cu11111ng way
to overcome a cl1allenge set befo1 e t11em, then tile Game
Master should allow the action to succeed and reward tl1e
players for their creatl\ 1t\
Espionage and subterfuge are tl1e meat and drink of the
Sentinel. While the Star \\ors saga 1s filled with fast-paced
action, there 1s no small amount of suitable adventure material that can be used to inspire a Game Master when designing adventures for Sentinel PCs. Ben Kenobi's role as protector and watcher over young Luke Skywalkei- is an excellent
example of a Sentry's life, while Luke's own attempt to
manipulate Jabba the Hutt 111 an effort to rescue Han Solo
is a perfect basis for an adventure for Shadow characters.
Rogue Padawan Kanan Jarrus l1as had many adventures
that exemplify the core Sentinel approach of wits over l1ghtsabers. Players should always remember that the Star \l\lars
galaxy is more than just open conflict between the darkness
and the light A great number of battles occu1 in the shadows, unseen and unknown to those whose lives are changed
by their outcome.
