WANTED: BOUNTY HUNTERS. NO QUESTIONS. NO DISINTEGRATIONS. APPLY NOW.


Bounty hunting is a complicated and dangerous profession. If you perform well and you’re smart, you can make a profitable living, for a while.

You’re a bounty hunter in the Star Wars universe, post Return of the Jedi timeline. You and your companions work to hunt and turn in bounties for pay against the backdrop of the War, collapse of the Empire, and your own personal battles.

This game will use a hack of Monster of the Week (Powered by the Apocalypse)

I am saving a seat for Francisco Olivera.


This game is part of the ongoing Star Wars Saturdays series. The time setting is after the end of Episode VI of the Star Wars movie series (that’s Return of the Jedi ) when the Empire is falling and the Alliance to Restore the Republic is taking control in fits and starts. If you’ve seen The Mandalorian TV show, that’s a good inspiration for what’s happening in the setting.

Characters and settings created in this miniseries will exist in the SWS canon for future miniseries and added to our wiki (https://starwarssaturdays.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page).

CW: Violence, Imperial power abuse, violence. Strong emotional ties. This game will lean more towards Star Wars media like the Clone Wars series, the Mandalorian, and maybe even Rogue One.
