Star Wars Plothooks @SWRPGHooks

#RPGHook: While exploring a derelict starship wreck for potential salvage, the PCs stumble upon someone encased in carbonite. The outlines of the person's frozen form make one thing clear even before deciding whether to thaw them out--this is a Jedi knight. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: A Rebel cell has been operating from an underground base with relative success until an earthquake wrecks havoc. Valuable ores revealed by the quake have brought the attention of Imperial mining crews right atop the people & supplies trapped below. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: A local Hutt gangster is devastated after his mate left him and he's holding a party to drown the sorrow in drinks, drugs, and dancers. Rivals and up-and-comers are poised to take advantage of the distracted boss, lowered security, and party chaos. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: As the Empire crumbles, the New Republic sets out to return many stolen artifacts and cultural items to their rightful planets. This creates plenty of work for pilots, hired guns, and couriers or a chance to get-rich-quick for pirates and thieves. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: Rumors are that a long-dead pirate has returned, complete with ghostly ship, to prey on innocents once more. Truth is, the ship is real and using old legends to scare off anyone that wanders too close to something hidden among the asteroids belts. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: One of the PCs receives word from their family that a sibling is suspected to be missing. Investigation reveals that they apparently signed on to a colony ship heading for the Unknown Regions and no one has heard from the ship in several weeks. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: A Technology & Weapons expo is being held on Ord Mantell as the Empire seeks to net profitable business arrangements with various corporations. PCs are Rebel agents who must steal or spoof invitations, gather what info they can, and get out alive. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: A damaged Star Destroyer orbits Duro in drydock as slaves and engineers work to repair it. Due to a potential reactor leak, the crew has all but been evacuated. It its current state it makes for an easy target to destroy...but can it be hijacked?? #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: A gang of thugs gets the bright idea to scavenge items from the many battlefields of the Clone Wars; specifically to acquire enough equipment to pose as Grand Army of the Republic Troops and shake down those unable to stand up for themselves. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: Order 65 has been declared. Palpatine is deemed unfit to lead and rumored to be working with the Sith. The Grand Army of the Republic is authorized to detain him--with lethal force if necessary--and the Senate moves to elect an acting Chancellor. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: In an attempt to seize even more power for himself, a politician makes false claims of atrocities committed against his people by a rival faction. His hope is that the Jedi will wipe out his enemies in the name of justice, leaving him unchallenged. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: A cult's obsession with understanding The Force leads to kidnapping Jedi to submit them to intense torture and punishing trials. How much can a Jedi's mind truly withstand and can they be forced to the Dark Side...or better yet back to the Light? #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: The PCs are Rebel agents sent to confirm an Imperial officer's capture by pirates before paying off the ransom. The pirates don't plan on actually giving up the Imperial and in fact, try to take the PCs hostage and sell them out to the Empire. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: Same alt history setting but the PCs are Mandalorians and/or mercenaries with the Clone Army serving as antagonists and various Jedi are the campaign's various bosses. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: Alternate history Star Wars where the opposing force against the Grand Army of the Republic isn't a bunch of merchant guilds and their droid army... but the full force of the Mandalorian war machine seeking vengeance on the Jedi and their allies. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: The daughter of an Imperial Moff has defected to the Alliance and begs for help convincing her father to do the same. The PCs are on the team sent with her but when he's unwilling to change sides Rebel HQ updates the mission--Kill him. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: The group's pilot is invited to join in a race to display their skills at flying and maneuvering. Rather than using their own ships, each contestant is issued a bulky, unmodified, freighter which is not at all meant to maneuverable let alone raced. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: The destruction of Alderaan has resulted in a spike in demand for related artifacts by private collectors and black markets. An Imperial governor is seeking to auction some items gathered during his time on-world--the perfect time for a PC heist. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: The Job: Sneak aboard a Hutt pleasure yacht and steal an artifact displayed among the galleries. Maps and security system details will be provided. The Catch: Once aboard it becomes obvious that all information is for the Hutt's previous ship. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG

#RPGHook: PCs are hired to search the jungles of a distant moon for the egg of a very rare--and very deadly--creature and bring it back to a collector post haste. She then has it cracked open and scrambled in front of them while still handing over payment. #SWRPG #RPG #TTRPG
