You know the RPG comnet is failing when the only person who tries making a game is a retired Navy Lance Corporal 
Right, here goes.. Bear with me, I don't know what I'm doing, and I'm not very good at this kind of thing anyway. But here goes. Wish me luck.
RPG System : Star Wars the Role Playing Game
Era : Unknown
Area of Space : The Bear Quadrant, near the Varnus Quadrant
Character restrictions : Nothing superhuman, nothing overly-powerful, nothing stupid. Any race known to the Star Wars Universe.
Character Generation : Droid characters are generated as though they were living creatures, but their intelligence is only 1/3 (one third) of normal.
Intro : Your entire Navy Squadron has crash landed on a hostile planet. As you look out from your crashed Interceptor, you see many large, hairy creatures armed with what look like guns. One makes a noise to you, and you suddenly feel compelled to disembark from your Interceptor, which you do, gratefully.
The large hairy creature looks at you. You feel words flooding into your mind.
"Do not be afraid my brother. What has happened to you?"
You speak back to the creature limply..
"We.. were taken on... by rebels.. They forced us to crash on this planet.. I.. Think I am.. dieing.."
"Come, I shall help you"
You are dragged off, and you lose consciousness.
Later, you awake, warm but weak, in front of a fire. The large hairy beasts are sitting around, and your fellow pilots are lying around, in similar condition to you.
Your lieutenant speaks to you, as he is right next to you.
"They killed the Seargent.. We gotta get out of here!"
"How the hell do we do that, sir?"
---------------------
Now we keep adding bits on, until something exciting happens.. Like the Squadron has to fight the beast things, to get out.. Then we do fighting stuff. I think. 
Remember, this is NOT an example. It is an attempt at an actual game. Please remember that, when you post on this thread. RPGing only. Please
