Behind the scenes[]

Napvansa Tadavv first appeared in Preparing for War, a roleplaying adventure idea from 1998's The Far Orbit Project, by Timothy S. O'Brien. The book was a supplement to West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game and was a sequel of sorts to the previous publication Pirates & Privateers, carrying on that book's theme by following the privateering vessel Far Orbit. Tadavv was provided as a sample character of the people who could apply for berths on the ship. It is up to player discretion as to who receives a job on the ship.
