I’ve posted a write-up on the Storm Dragons of Tarl as part of Nuketown’s Monster Week. The storm dragons are colossal beasts that hunt the skies of the Outer Rim world Tarl.

The latest Mandalorian Interlude arc — the assault on the Outer Rim world of Tarl — recently concluded, and we’ve added a bunch of pages to the Holocron of Zend wiki supporting it:

• Tarl, a storm world in the Outer Rim Territories, bordering the Unknown Regions
• Icarus Orden, pacifist Human Jedi Master and former protector of the Eye of the Dragon force relic.
• Erdan, Human Jedi Knight, newly knighted student of Icarus Orden. Last seen in Lenk, the capital city of Tarl before the city’s burning by the Mandalorians.
• Ool Mudon, Ithorian Jedi Knight, former student of Icarus Orden now questioning his master’s ways.

This is the original Knights of the Old Republic trailer, and I’ve got to say that it gives me the same sort of chills I get watching the Original Trilogy trailers — the game was just that good. I’m posting it here as a source of inspiration for future our KOTOR sessions.

With the Mandalorian Interlude underway, I decided it was time to add a few Mandalorian specific entries to the wiki:

• The Mandalorian Interlude Primer: An overview of important PCs, NPCs, locations, starships, etc. in the subcampaign.
• Ord Biniir: An Outer Rim ordinance/factory world that the Mandalorians (including Clan Olan) secured early in the war to build Basilisk battle droids.
• Ubrikkian Steamworks: The Republic corporation whose factories on Ord Biniir were seized by the Mandalorians.

One of our group’s ongoing thought experiments is how you’d create Dungeons & Dragons: Saga Edition, incorporating all of the streamlining of the Star Wars d20 rule set while simultaneously retaining the best parts of D&D. One of our players, Damon, decided to put pencil to paper and has started recreating the D&D base classes using Saga Edition rules on his  The project is off to a good start, and we’ve been having a good debate about how the new system might work. Check it out:

• SAGA Fantasy: The Wizard
  • SAGA Fantasy: 0 Level Spells
  • SAGA Fantasy: 1st level Arcane Spells
• SAGA Fantasy: The Fighter

Check it out and let Damon know what you think!
