Bit of a boring Saturday so I pulled out Star Wars Saga Edition RPG and tried rolling up a character. All my previous characters were human so I decided to try out another species.
(RANT ON) In the several times I have rolled up a character I have found it FRUSTRATING to find all the right bonuses and the like. They are spread out throughout the book (Abilities/Species/Classes/Skills/Feats/Equipment/Combat) and VERY HARD to put together. The index is HORRIBLE! (RANT OFF)
Da-Chu, Cerean Scout
Abilities
Wow, my original rolls were 5, 7, 8, 14, 14, 17. This is very poor. I understand that combat skills are key so I loaded up STR, DEX, and CON. Making my character Cerean means +2 bonus in WIS and INT, making up a bit for my deficiencies. The end result is a very dexterous, but somewhat ugly guy!

Da-Chu is a Cerean wanderer. Whereas most Cereans are smart and wise, Da-Chu was born a bit of a brute; and an ugly one at that! Da-Chu has turned his back on his homeworld and instead taken to wandering the galaxy in search of adventure. He is often misunderstood by potential enemies; they see a tall, strong, ugly brute-like person and don’t realize the lightening reflexes Da-Chu possesses. Da-Chu is sometimes accused of being a force-user; how else could have he moved first? Da-Chu openly carries a quarterstaff, but under his cloak he conceals a blaster pistol when ranged combat work is required. Da-Chu is sure he has a destiny, but he is not sure what is is other than a driven desire to seek out the new and unexplored.
