"Nightsaber" represents a brief adventure module designed for play during the New Republic era. It was initially released on the Wizards of the Coast official webpage. Its author is J.D. Wiker, and its publication date was November 20, 2003. This adventure serves as a follow-up to the previously released mini-adventure entitled "Rebel Jedi."
Capturing a renegade Jedi who is individually trying to bring the Galactic Civil War to a close is already a difficult task. However, when the player characters find themselves on Dathomir, a planet ensnared in an Imperial scheme, the situation becomes significantly more complicated. This mini-adventure for the Star Wars Roleplaying Game can be enjoyed as a standalone experience or as a direct continuation of the previous month's "Rebel Jedi" adventure.
"Nightsaber" is crafted for a group of four player characters, all of whom should be at the 15th level of experience. The adventure's timeline is set approximately 12 years following the Battle of Yavin. While the player characters should ideally possess some degree of allegiance to the New Republic, formal membership within the Rebels is not a requirement. The adventure's premise relies on the assumption that the player characters would be sufficiently motivated to pursue and capture an escaped rogue Jedi, leading them to travel to the planet of Dathomir for this purpose.
