Multiple Characters

On Yoda's Yarns, players are allowed to run up to three characters simultaneously. However, there are a few rules that must be observed in regards to these characters and how they may interact. These rules are as follows:

Use separate accounts for separate characters to make things easier.
When applying for a second or third character, state clearly who your...

Loans

feeds@yuku.com (Thrion) — Sun, 23 Nov 2008 07:03:45 GMT

To get a loan from a gangster you must participate in a moderated thread. You are only allowed to get up to a 2,000 credits, but have have no minimum.

Once you have received the credits the staff will then place a 150 fee on your roster which will be deducted each week, as well as a total debt owned. You can pay more back at any time, but 150 is the minimum for a 2,000 credits loan.

For those players who can't afford that minimum a bounty of 5,000 credits will put on...

Smuggling/Shipping

feeds@yuku.com (Toran Cole) — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 16:18:52 GMT

Smuggling, shipping as well as transporting are all a part of Yoda's Yarn. Naturally everyone can have a go at this - though the smuggling of spice, weapons and slaves are restricted to the Smuggler, Smuggler/Gambler, or Racer/Smuggler classes only. Everything else is accessible by all classes.

In order to take a part in this aspect of Yoda's Yarn, one must first have a space-worthy vehicle which has a cargo compartment. They must also purchase the goods they wish to trade...

Shopping

Shopping
When wishing to purchase an item from the Yoda's Yarns store, whether it is a new weapon, or that flash starfighter, one must open a new thread in the "Purchases" forum and make a new post including the following:

1. Which item you wish to purchase.
2. The price of the item.
3. Your character's perception XP (or that of an NPC you own) if the item requires a perception check.

Please note that you hire an NPC the same way.

Sabacc/Gambling Rules

feeds@yuku.com (Toran Cole) — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 16:15:31 GMT

Sabaac is a past time of all players, you can try your luck on it but the game is based on your character's perception; not your luck in real life.

Like everything else in the YY world (except most purchases), you must submit a roleplay about your character gambling. With that done, you may submit a generation request.

Sabaac generations can only be done once a day and for a maximum of two times per week. So if Jabberteek the Ewok Smuggler failed his first gamble and...

How to Pit Fight or Duel

feeds@yuku.com (Toran Cole) — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 16:15:01 GMT

Pit fights and Duels are easy ways to earn credits... and wounds.

First, you need to look at the rules; as the rules for either one of these are actually quite strict. Once you've done that, you need a RP about you going to the pit fight (1 large post, or 2-3 small quality ones)

Now you need to choose your opponent, please note that you may ONLY challenge opponents that you have unlocked; for example in Pit Fighting, I've defeated Jax; but I cannot challenge the...

feeds@yuku.com (Toran Cole) — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 16:09:50 GMT

For any combat generation to be processed; a player must role play 3 quality posts. After which a request in the generation forum should be posted with the following information included:

1. A link to the RP.

2. The characters, vehicles, and/or starships involved.

3. The stats of your character which are relevant to battle.

4. The stats of your equipment; such as weapons and armour.

5. The stats of your opponent, as well as...

Bounty Hunts and Missions

feeds@yuku.com (Toran Cole) — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 16:08:13 GMT

Need some extra cash? Feel like you can take on the galaxy? Then join a mission or a hunt! Either will test your character's skills and intelligence, and reward them well. Take down a wanted criminal, or hunt dangerous animals, the choice is yours.

These missions are advertised within the Jobs and Missions forum, where a briefing post by a staff member will detail the selected mission/hunt. These briefing posts will list the criteria, rewards and type of the mission/hunt. If you...

Military (Basic Rules & Rank Tables)

feeds@yuku.com (Toran Cole) — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 16:01:35 GMT

Whatever ships, vehicles, personnel, etc listed in the box next to the rank are what a character of that rank will have command of at that rank. You do not add ships, vehicles, personnel from previous ranks to the ships, vehicles, personnel listed under your current rank.

Commanders of Capital Ships do not automatically receive starfighters to fill their capacity unless of flag rank where specified.

Generals do not recieve NPCs to control their vehicles, but must assign...

Professions

feeds@yuku.com (Toran Cole) — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 15:39:17 GMT

Professions are a big part of designing your character, mainly because different professions have different bonuses. You may change your profession once every month, but watch out when doing this. It's never easy for an Imperial officer or Pirate to just up and leave. Your ex-superiors wouldn't want all those secrets loose. Add to this the fact that changing professions means having to learn a set of entirely new skills (which means you'll have to forfeit 50XP to represent all the...

Like to join Yoda's Yarns? Confused by the rules so much that you don't know how to start? Well this is the place to be then!

Step 1: Decide on a name for the character which you will be playing as. Please don't use an actual Star Wars character as we avoid that here.

If you're having a little bit of trouble making a name then perhaps this site...
