It could be (and probably is) a player problem. But it might just be that the character is shiftless and unreliable. Sadly there are lots of parents, guardians, mmentors and role models who do not live up to their responsibilities.[/quote]
I thiink the fallout for this behavior, should be handled mostly in game. I believe that most of the rebels, being @good guys@ would frown on such behavior. And it certainly would be the sort of thing we&d expect from a hero in a Star Wars film. |

In which case the player took a disadvantage that he is unwilling to live with. Since this is occuring in a (house rules) system where disadvantages 'pay for' advantages this is a player problem not just an in-universe problem. If one can resolve the player problem (my big concern) then I would include the in-universe results of the PC's actions. |

I've always envisioned an Advantage / Disadvantage chart being a good way to counter a Force Sensitive attribute. Sure, your character can have a starting 5D in Force Sensitive, so long as he pays the price in other aspects of his life. Of course, that would require some extra work on the GM's behalf to make sure that it stays challenging for the player...
