If you?re a player, you take on the role of a hero-one of the ?stars? of the Star Wars saga that you, the other players and the GM all help you develop. You create your character with the help of the game rules that follow, according to your own vision for the type of hero you want to play. As your character participates in adventures, he or she gains experience points (XP) that help him or her improve and become more powerful.
