NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens

“Star Wars: Aftermath [reveals] what happened after the events of 1983’s Return of the Jedi. It turns out, there’s more than just the Empire for the good guys to worry about.”—The Hollywood Reporter

As the Empire reels from its critical defeats at the Battle of Endor, the Rebel Alliance—now a fledgling New Republic—presses its advantage by hunting down the enemy’s scattered forces before they can regroup and retaliate. But above the remote planet Akiva, an ominous show of the enemy’s strength is unfolding. Out on a lone reconnaissance mission, pilot Wedge Antilles watches Imperial Star Destroyers gather like birds of prey circling for a kill, but he’s taken captive before he can report back to the New Republic leaders.

Meanwhile, on the planet’s surface, former rebel fighter Norra Wexley has returned to her native world—war weary, ready to reunite with her estranged son, and eager to build a new life in some distant place. But when Norra intercepts Wedge Antilles’s urgent distress call, she realizes her time as a freedom fighter is not yet over. What she doesn’t know is just how close the enemy is—or how decisive and dangerous her new mission will be.

Determined to preserve the Empire’s power, the surviving Imperial elite are converging on Akiva for a top-secret emergency summit—to consolidate their forces and rally for a counterstrike. But they haven’t reckoned on Norra and her newfound allies—her technical-genius son, a Zabrak bounty hunter, and a reprobate Imperial defector—who are prepared to do whatever they must to end the Empire’s oppressive reign once and for all.

At certain places throughout the galaxy, known as vergences, the Force is extraordinarily strong. The most renowned Jedi temples rest atop these sites. Many have been quarantined by the Empire in their quest to suppress all knowledge about the Force. Some planets are also unusually strong with the Force, such as Ilum, Dagobah, and legendary Ossus. Such planets were once centers of Jedi learning and mysticism. Now, they may conceal Force sensitive exiles, ruined temples, or caches of precious and powerful artifacts.

Nexus of Power, a supplement for the Star Wars: Force and Destiny roleplaying game, opens up for your exploration numerous vergences, Jedi temples, and worlds strong with the Force. Within its 144 pages, players and Game Masters will find in-depth descriptions of iconic locations such as the Jedi temple on Coruscant, the Outer Rim planet of Lothal, and the mysterious, dreamlike world of Mortis. Nexus of Power also introduces four new playable species, along with vehicles and gear specially suited to Force users, and features eight modular encounters which can be played as single-session adventures or used as launching points for full campaigns.
