Star Wars Roleplaying Game Errata
Were making a number of corrections and clarifications for the second printing of
the Star Wars Roleplaying Game, and we wanted you to be the first to know. For
those of you who bought the first printing, check out this complete list of errata so you
can be sure to have the official rulings right at your fingertips.
Page 12, under Human Racer template, under Skills
Repair should be +3, not +5.
Page 33, under Sullustan Species Traits, under Automatic Language
Add Basic.

Add Basic.
Page 39, right column, replace paragraph 8 with
Defense Bonus: The characters bonus to his Defense. Note that this bonus does
not stack with any bonuses for armor worn, and that wearing armor penalizes a
characters speed and certain skill checks.
Page 48, under Scout entry, under Uncanny Dodge
The second sentence should read: "At 4th level and above, the scout retains his
Dexterity bonus to Defense (if any) regardless of being caught flat-footed or struck by a
hidden attacker."
Page 78, under Jump, under Special
A character who has the Run feat and makes a running jump check increases the distance
or height by one-fourth, not one-third.
Page 82, Survival DC Table
The DC for the third entry (avoid getting lost
) should be 18, not 15.
Page 83, left column, replace paragraph 1 with
Long-term Care: Providing long-term care means treating an injured character for a
day or more. If successful, the patient recovers wound points or ability points lost to
temporary damage at twice the normal rate. (That is, 2 wound points or 2 ability points
per day instead of 1.) You can tend up to six patients at a time. You need common medical
supplies as can be found easily in civilized regions of space.
Page 83, left column, replace paragraph 5, 6 & 7 with
Use Medpac: A medpac is a simple medical device that is applied to a wounded or
dying character and activated. A medpac restores 1 wound point to any wounded character.
If the character is dying, the application of a medpac also stabilizes the character.
The number of wound points restored by a medpac can be increased using the Treat Injury
skill.

This application of the Treat Injury skill cant be used untrained. You must have
at least 1 rank in the skill to increase the restorative effects of a medpac. A character
can only be healed (have wounds restored) once in a 24-hour period by a medpac, though the
character can be stabilized any number of times. Using a medpac depletes its contents
(even if it is only used to stabilize a dying character).
Use Bacta Tank: A specialized medical tank filled with the miraculous liquid,
bacta, promotes rapid healing and acts as a powerful disinfectant. When a character has
been severely wounded, bacta tank treatment is the best method for restoring lost wound
points. With a successful Treat Injury check and a bacta tank, a character recovers wound
points at a rate of 1 per hour (instead of 1 per day).
Page 94, under Frightful Presence
The DC is "10 plus one-half your level and Charisma modifier," not "10
plus your level and Charisma modifier."
Page 95, under Heroic Surge
Replace the last sentence with the following: "You may use Heroic Surge a number
of times per day, based on your character level, but never more than once per round.
1st4th level, once per day; 5th8th level, twice per day; 9th12th level,
three times per day; 13th16th level, four times per day; 17th20th level, five
times per day."
Page 123, under Bacta Tank, replaces paragraphs 3 & 4
Any character who has suffered wound damage can benefit from a bacta tank treatment,
but its miraculous properties are most evident when used on a severely wounded patient.
Bacta treatment is the best method for healing characters that have suffered massive
amounts of wound damage.
Patients undergoing bacta tank treatment recover wound points at a rate of 1 per hour
(instead of 1 per day).
Page 124, under Glow Rod
The glow rod projects a beam of light up to 10 meters, not 50 meters.
Page 124 & 125, under Medpac, replaces paragraph 2 & 3
A medpac restores 1 wound point to any wounded character. If the character is dying,
the application of a medpac also stabilizes the character. The application of a medpac
requires a full-round action. If the user has the Treat Injury skill, he or she can heal
additional wounds, depending on the result of the skill check (see page 82). A medpac
cant restore more wound points than an injured character started with.
A character can only be healed (have wounds restored) once in a 24-hour period by a
medpac, though the character can be stabilized any number of times. Using a medpac
depletes its contents (even if it is only used to stabilize a dying character).
Page 125, Table 74: Equipment
The fusion lantern was left off the list. It is a hand-held device, larger than a glow
rod, that produces light and heat. It costs 25 credits and weighs 2 kg.
Page 131, left column, replaces the Vitality and Wound Points section
Vitality and Wound Points
Vitality points represent your characters ability to turn a direct hit into a
glancing blow or a near miss. Damage is usually deducted from your vitality points.
Wound points represent how much damage a character can take before falling unconscious
or dying. Damage is deducted from your wound points only after youve exhausted your
vitality points or when you are struck by a critical hit.
Page 131, right column, replaces the 0 Vitality Points section
0 Vitality Points
If you run out of vitality points, you can no longer avoid real damage. Any additional
damage you receive is deducted from your wound points.
Fatigued
If you take any wound damage, you are fatigued. You cannot run or charge, and you
suffer an effective penalty of 2 to Strength and Dexterity. In addition, each time
you take wound damage you must make a Fortitude saving throw (DC 10) or be stunned for 2d6
rounds.
Page 131, right column, replaces the Healing Naturally section
You regain 1 wound point for each day of light activity or rest. For each hour of light
activity or rest, you regain a number of vitality points equal to your level. A full
nights sleep (8 hours) restores all vitality.
Page 132, replaces Vitality and Wound Points
Your vitality and wound points tell you how much punishment you can take before
dropping. Your vitality points are based on your class, your level, and your Constitution
modifier, while your wound points are equal to your Constitution score. Wound points for
most creatures are determined by their Constitution and size.
When your vitality points reach 0, you can no longer avoid real damage. Any additional
damage dealt to you is deducted from your wound points.
When you take any wound damage, you are fatigued. In addition, each time you take wound
damage you must make a Fortitude saving throw (DC 10) or be stunned for 2d6 rounds.
When your wound points reach 0 you fall unconscious and are dying. You immediately make
a Fortitude save (DC 10) to see if you die from your injuries. Even if you succeed, you
must make a Fortitude save every hour until you stabilize or die. (See Injury and Death,
page 139.)
Page 135, under Improvised Thrown Weapons
Improvised thrown weapons have a range increment of 2 meters, not 10 feet.
Page 139, replaces the Injury and Death section up to Damaging Helpless Defenders
Injury and Death
Your vitality and wound points measure how hard you are to kill. While your opponents
know a number of ways to hurt, harm, or kill you, you usually just take damage and lose
vitality (or wound) points. The damage from each successful attack and each fight
accumulates, reducing your vitality or wound point totals until one or the other reaches
0. Then youre in real trouble. Luckily, you have a number of ways to regain vitality
and wound points. If you have a few hours (or days) to rest, you can recover lost vitality
(or wound) points on your own. Technology provides faster ways to restore lost wound
points.
What Vitality Points Represent
Vitality points represent your characters ability to avoid the nastiest effects
of being hit in combat, turning a lethal hit into a near miss. Losing vitality from a
blaster shot doesnt mean the blaster bolt hit you, but rather indicates that you
barely dodged and avoided taking physical damage. As you lose vitality points, you become
tired and less able to avoid deadly hits. A high-level character has a greater pool of
vitality points, and is better able to avoid physical damage.
What Wound Points Represent
Wound points represent your characters capacity to withstand physical trauma.
Losing wound points from a blaster attack indicates that the blaster bolt hit you, dealing
potentially deadly damage.
Effects of Damage
Once you run out of vitality points, additional damage is deducted from your wound
points. Damage doesnt slow you down until you take wound damage. If you take any
wound damage, you are fatigued. You cannot run or charge, and you suffer an effective
penalty of 2 to Strength and Dexterity. A character remains fatigued until all of
his wound points are restored.
In addition, each time you take wound damage you must make a Fortitude saving throw (DC
10) or be stunned for 2d6 rounds. (A stunned character loses his Dexterity bonus and can
take no actions.)
At 0 wound points, youre unconscious and may die (see below).
Page 140, the following replaces the existing sections
Stabilization and Recovery
An unconscious and dying character (one with 0 wound points) stabilizes naturally if
his or her Fortitude saving throw succeeds by 10 or more, or the roll is a natural 20.
Other methods for stabilizing an unconscious and dying character are described below:
Using the Treat Injury skill, DC 15
Using a medpac (which stabilizes the character and heals 1 wound point)
Using the Heal Another Force skill, DC 10
A stabilized character doesnt need to make Fortitude saving throws every hour to
avoid death.
A stabilized character regains wound points at the normal rate (1 wound point per day
of rest).
Healing that restores a character to more than 0 wound points makes the character
regain consciousness, though the character remains fatigued until he or she is fully
healed (all lost wound points are restored).
Natural Healing
You recover 1 vitality point per character level for every hour of rest, and 1 wound
point for every day of rest. You may engage in light, nonstrenuous travel or activity, but
engaging in combat prevents any natural healing for that period of time. For example, a
3rd-level soldier/2nd-level noble recovers 5 vitality points per hour of rest and 1 wound
point per day of rest.
A full nights sleep (8 hours) restores all vitality.
Assisted Healing
A trained healer can double the rate at which an injured person recovers lost wound
points. Using the long-term care option of the Treat Injury skill, a healer can increase
the rate of recovery to 2 wound points per day.
Equipment Healing
Certain items can restore lost wound points. Medpacs are good for stabilizing dying
characters or restoring a limited number of lost wound points. A bacta tank treatment
restores wound points at an advanced rate. See Chapter 7: Equipment for more information.

Contact: The crimelord has operatives and associates throughout his or her sphere
of influence. Each time a crimelord gains a contact, the GM should develop a supporting
character to represent the contact. A player can suggest the type of contact his or her
character wants to gain. A contact wont accompany the crimelord on missions or risk
his or her life, but a contact will provide information or expert skills. The more
powerful the contact is, the less time he or she has to offer the crimelord. Whatever the
case, a crimelord shouldnt be allowed to call on the same contact more than once per
adventure. Contacts fall into two groups: information contacts and expert contacts.
Information contacts include bartenders, thugs, spacers, law enforcers, outlaws,
entertainers, computer slicers, merchants, politicians, smugglers, officers, starship
captains, reporters, and various types of street people of any species.
Expert contacts include bureaucrats, doctors, engineers, diplomats, historians,
mechanics, various types of scholars and scientists, politicians, and bounty hunters.
Inspire Fear: Beginning at 3rd level, the crimelords infamy and reputation
reach a level that anyone of the same character level or lower has trouble taking direct
actions against the crimelord. This results in a penalty to any actions made to directly
effect the crimelord, including attacks, skill checks in opposition to the crimelord, and
Force-based skill uses. The penalty is 2 at 3rd level, 4 at 6th level, and
6 at 9th level.
