TMD's Creatively Named Blog

make the individual cell doors four parts, so they slowly slide open in an "X" shape, but then when they shut they snap shut.

 First things first, they gotta get in prison. 

 

I always thought it was a chump move to give a prison cell only one layer of doors, myself.

 

I'd put in

-Whatever Star Wars calls forcefields

-Xaeraz's beautiful concept for a guillotine-y iris door

-a solid sheet of metal that has to be straight-up lifted out of place by a Very Large Droid

 

This Very Large Droid brings in the prisoners' meals, which is nice, because nothing else is designed to be able to climb up and down the 30-foot vertical shafts into which each cell is sunk.

 

It's not the most efficient concept, but it'll be a hoot for either a daring escape or a delightful TPK.

Awesome. Rache, I'm totally implementing yours. Droids and forcefields. Also throwing in some GoTG for good measure.

 

And here are some inmate notes I doodled down on the subway:

 

Kaimell

Human. Has a prosthetic leg.  Embezzlement. 

 

Waign

Twi'lek. 

Forgery

 

Speedo

Rodian

Murder

 

Ton'cli

Neimodian

Grand theft auto

 

Cantin

Gungan

Armed robbery, led a team:

Dadoy the Devonian, Lun'ge the Aqualish, Ivada the dug, and Tess the Besalisk

These guys make quick enemies of the pcs

Frankly, if I saw a gungan in prison, I'd consider them my enemy from that very first instant anyway.

Cantin the Gungan? By the end of the campaign he better be Cantin the Gun-gone!

Now, now, be fair. The Gungans had the wisdom to despise a certain regrettable individual at least as much as everyone else does. They did kick him out, after all.

 

Also, you should totally have at least one inmate in there under non-specific charges of criminal mischief and/or mayhem. Bonus points if they're a Hutt who, through rigorous exercise, manages to have the physical mass of a Hutt and the strength to move that mass quickly enough to be a serious threat in a fight.
