Steve Jackson Games Forums - Star Wars racial templates

I have converted from Saga before, but this time I wanted to do it from description straight to GURPS.

Descriptions have been taken from Wookieepedia and the official databank. Species lifespan, but nothing else, have been taken from Saga. And I've used my own interpretations and whimsy to fill in the blanks. Cost is not indicated for Perks and Quirks.

Traits that are exhibited by only a majority of the species may be removed with GM approval for a minority character.

I would appreciate any comments.
