Beating the Odds: Smuggling is not an easy or safe career, but some Smugglers like the challenge of a difficult job, game, or situation In this case it is true that the higher the risk the higher the reward, but the Smuggler still has some tricks up their sleeve to tip the odds more in their favor. When trying to beat the house during a high-stakes game, a Gambler can use skill or even cheat to appear lucky. The Gunslinger facing multiple opponents can use their particular talents to escape unscathed. This Smuggler makes their own luck, and their perilous career allows them to do so. The desired outcome is the satisfaction of succeeding despite the odds.

Pet: The character is close with a pet or animal companion of some sort, a relatively small non-combatant.(Ewok pacifist who likes cleaning gardening and cooking named Roomba)

Bad Reputation: Whether deserved or not, some Smugglers find themselves with a reputation for being untrustworthy or difficult to deal with. This can make finding jobs a struggle. Since the best way to reduce this Obligation is to successfully complete contracts, proving themself reliable again, the Smuggler might find themself having to take the least desirable jobs for a while. Once they've repaired their reputation, they will be able to pick and choose again./5

Addiction: The character has a strong addiction they must keep feeding. Whether it's a physical addiction to stims. dust, or alcohol, or a mental addiction such as gambling, law-breaking, or priceless antiques, the character devotes a lot of time, energy, and resources to pursuing or obtaining the object of their addiction. Avoiding this Obligation has an almost immediate result — withdrawal. The exact nature depends on the addiction, but the character finds it increasingly difficult to concentrate on even mundane tasks, often reflected in the GM adding anywhere from to to skill checks./10


Bounty: For some reason, the character has a price on their head. This may be in the form of a legal warrant or a contract by criminals, collection agencies, or even someone who felt their honor violated in some way. What they did to earn this mark is up to their background, and the severity of their actions can be based on the size of their Obligation./5

Responsibility: A character with the Responsibility Obligation feels a strong sense of accountability or relationship to a person, place, or thing (a responsibility to kin falls under the Family Obligation described above). This could include a strong connection to a mentor, a strong desire to care for orphans in a given location, or taking on the needs of an under-represented minority. (Ewok) /10
