So who exactly is a Storyteller? In Star Wars Galaxies, a Storyteller can be anyone. Perhaps it's an entertainer with a cantina holding weekly roleplay events, or someone trying to drum up business for their vendor by holding a grand opening event. A player that runs events for their Player Association, city or server is often finding new and unusual ways to entertain others.
Roleplayers are the most obvious examples of Storytellers, but this isn't always the case. A Storyteller could make a video or comic using the game engine, or members of a combat-oriented Player Association running training missions for its new recruits. A city may even set up an event to attract new citizens. There are all sorts of reasons to have an event or to try to tell a story.
With this new assortment of tools, Storytellers can build their own points of interest and locations, and even populate them with attackable NPCs (non-player characters). Players are still the most important part of any event, but with the new Storyteller props and NPCs, player events will be bigger and better than ever!
Storyteller is not an expertise system, nor is it a profession. It is an item-based system that begins with the Storyteller Vendor.
