This sandbox is a collection of wiki code I am testing for whatever project I am working on.
Appendix A: Sample Lore Topics
The below list is a sampling of Lore topics in use in the club today, and can provide you with some ideas on what subjects you would like your character to have studied intensively.
Remember that even at +0 Lore, your character is assumed to know about recent history and the current state of the galaxy, including the history of the modern era (Imperial Period, New Republic and New Jedi Order eras), and be up to date on current news and popular culture around the galaxy.
Lore is, at its heart, a "flavor" skill and provides extra layers and knowledge to your character. You can create any lore topic you wish, as long as it fits in with the Star Wars universe.
