Star Wars: Force and Destiny RPG: Knights of Fate

A Warrior’s role in their party is not merely a vehicle for violence. Warriors are a safeguard against the countless dangerous environments of the galaxy that require a guiding light. An ancient Sith temple may hold vast repositories of forgotten knowledge, but a Mystic could not hope to overcome the prowling, corrupted beasts that have claimed the vacant structure. A Sentinel may successfully identify and track down a violent street gang harassing innocent civilians, but they may be ill-equipped to handle the gang’s collection of heavily armed sentry droids. A Guardian might establish contact with the leader of a Rebel cell and decide that speed is more important than discretion in their mission to evacuate with a defecting Imperial governor. Scenes and encounters such as these highlight the Warrior’s prowess while tying the struggle to non-combat story threads.

In Force and Destiny, Warriors must frequently confront the inherent moral conflict of violence. To them, peace is not merely the absence of strife but the presence of justice and order. But the power that manifests itself so plainly in the Warrior is also their greatest danger. The Warrior must be ever-vigilant to protect their thoughts and intentions from the deception of the dark side. The fear and anger that can go hand-in-hand with battle may be a deadlier foe than any weapon forged by hand.
