INTRODUCTION
B
EYOND THE RIM
is a full-length adventure in the
Star
Wars:
EDGE OF THE EMPIRE
Roleplaying Came line
and is designed for starting Player Characters and
can be scaled upwards. At the heart of the story is
the long-lost Separatist treasury ship, the
Sa Nalaor,
which lies wrecked on the frontier of Wild Space. The
PCs will need to harness every skill in their arsenal to
evade Imperial forces, thwart their competition, and
finally explore—and survive—an uncharted world.
Came Masters may use

as a jump-
ing-off point for a brand-new campaign or to continue
their group's ongoing adventures. Additionally, this
book can be used as a sourcebook for three new loca-
tions described at length: the Wheel, Cholganna, and
Raxus Prime. Came Masters may also use the all-new
adversaries and starship profiles—including Impe-
rial scout troopers, the
Skywatcher-c\ass
deep space
scout ship, amphibious reevos, and fearsome nexu—

ADVENTURE OVERVIEW
B
EYOND THE RIM
is an exciting tale of exploration
divided into three parts. In
Episode I,
the play-
ers are offered a job that takes them to the farthest
reaches of the Outer Rim in search of the wreck of a
treasury ship. The PCs gather supplies and investigate
clues to aid them on their expedition while dodging a
rival salvage crew and the Imperial Security Bureau. In
Episode II
they must blaze a new hyperspace route
to the planet Cholganna and explore the surface's
deadly jungles to locate the crash site and search for
any survivors. In
Episode III
the PCs bring their dis-
coveries to the junkyard planet, Raxus Prime, where
they must survive a desperate, final raid by their ri-
vals and escape to hyperspace before Imperial storm-
troopers overrun their hideout.
When Republic—now Imperial—ships overwhelmed
the station, Harsol escaped with the lead cybertech
designer, an Arkanian named Cratala, along with her
core staff and many of their working prototypes. With
no government to defend them and the Imperials un-
likely to leave them alone, the pair's initial plan was
to set up a small base far beyond Imperial control.
Cratala would develop the technology while Harsol
would provide protection and use underworld con-
tacts to hnd markets—legitimate or otherwise. One of
those contacts would be the Twi'lek Ropok, the origi-
nal president of the illicit tech company IsoTech.
The plan didn't survive their escape attempt. As Har-
sol and Cratala prepared to make their last hyperspace
jump from the end of the Perlemian Trade Route to-
ward the remote world of Cholganna, pursuing Imperial
cruisers severely damaged their ship in a barrage of
turbolaser fire. The
Sa Nalaor
barely escaped by mak-
ing the jump. However, on arrival at Cholganna, the ship
dropped out of hyperspace far too close to the planet's
gravity well. The main sublight engines failed, and the
ship crashed on Cholganna's overgrown surface.
In the moments before dropping into the atmo-
sphere, the captain managed to launch a jury-rigged
hyperspace message pod to his associates at the
ADVENTURE BACKGROUND
At the end of the Clone Wars, Captain Rel Harsol, of
the Confederacy of Independent Systems (CIS) Bank-
ing Clan frigate
Sa Nalaor,
fled the newly-declared
Galactic Empire for the fringes of space. During the
preceding months, Harsol had commanded a small
fleet protecting a CIS cybernetics development deep
space station just off the Perlemian Trade Route, near
the Salvara system.
