Creature Handler Archive

As we approach Publish 10 I think we shoudl start thinking about what we would like to see as potential force sensitive enhancements. These are the skills we will have to quest for and accumulate in order to unlock our Jedi slot under the new system.

For Creature Handlers I'd like to see a CL Bonus applied. As we become more in tune with the Force we should become more able to communicate with and control the more difficult creatures.

In particular this is a good opportunity for the Devs to increase the rancors' power. Rancors are supposedly, withone exception,only tameable through use of the Force. If the rancors are rebuilt with the strength they should have, their CL will undoubtedly need to increase. Our limited CL would then make rancors useless and untameable unless there was some way to gain a bonus to this stat. Through the new Force Sensitive system we would gain both a roleplay reason for being able to control rancors as well as a new level of power and incentive to actually participate in the new FSCS without necessarily becoming Jedi.

This will make rancors relatively rare pets but do we want to see them powerful and rare or useless and common? Or worse, useless and rare?

Give me a shadowed forest into which I might disappear.
Give me a terrible foe and stack the odds against me.
Give me friends and creatures with whom I can share my adventures, my losses and my gains.
Let the gales blow and the world be torn asunder but don't make me stand alone against the tempest.
