1) Your character is not a god, so don't act like it. If you're character loses a limb, it can't grow back, you can get an artificial limb, but no regeneration. You can't dodge everything, you can't never miss, and you CAN'T instantly kill people.



2) Character's shouldn't start out totally decked out in full Cortosis Armor, with 20 lightsabers, and a gun as big as a house. Start small, build up.



3) Jedi, Sith, and certain individuals with the qualifications (such as ex-Jedi/sith, or Dark Jedi) are the only beings capable of using a lightsaber, without self inflicted amputation. Until you are instructed by one with the ability to wield one, you can't. You can actually teach yourself, but it will take much longer.



4) Try to limit the 'hand me down' lightsabers. Your first lightsaber, most of the time, should be constructed. Unless you are a Sith, sometimes they award their apprentices with a Lightsaber, but in that case it is earned, and not simply inherited, or given to them by family.



5) Cortosis is not an unlimited rescource, not everyone get's suits of armor laced with Cortosis, so until you have a lot of money to afford it, or are a high ranking officer or something in a faction, all you can get are simple things, like cortosis swords.



6) You can have personal ships, but don't go crazy. A Bounty Hunter won't have a Star Destroyer size ship as a personal ship.



7) When writing up you're character's profile, do a good job. Don't just say their name, and maybe their home planet. No, spend some time on it, and write a good in depth profile. Further, don't just put "Unknown" for the place of birth and all that, unless it really plays a part of the character's history, like they don't even know in the game. Its not like the characters in the story will know what is in the profile.



8) Please don't give your character a title they don't have. So for example, if you are not a Sith Lord or higher, you can't call yourself "Darth." If you are in the Jedi, but not a Master, you can't call yourself "Master." If you are in a military faction, don't give your character a rank you don't have, etc.



9) Combat/Lightsaber forms take a long time to learn, let alone master. So none of this "I know every form" crap.



10) Alignment matters. So if you're a LS Jedi, and you use Plague, it's not only going to take more energy than it would to a DS Sith, but it will effect you. Not only does alignment change regarding your actions, but also it effects your abilities with the force. No one can master every single power, if you focus on one side, the other weakens for you, if you switch to the weak one, the more time you spend on it, the weaker your previously strong side becomes. The only powers that are unaffected by alignment are the core/universal powers. So, just know that if you tend to use both sides of the force, you will not be as effective in one side, as someone who focuses on that side specifically.
