Languages

The number of languages your character speaks is based on the Language skill. Besides your race's native language, you may learn one language per 1D in the Language skill. Keep in mind that if your character's racial default language is not Basic, you'll need to pick it up if you want to understand the majority of beings in the galaxy. As your Language skill increases, so does the number of languages you may speak.

*Anyone who knows Galactic Basic is assumed to also know sign language, unless the player specifies otherwise. Its primary uses are for species that are incapable of pronouncing Basic due to their physiology, and for disabled persons. Although many dialects exist to accommodate species with different anatomies, it was developed for humans first. Proficiency level is left to the player's discretion.

**Droid NPCs know Binary and their owners' native language by default. Any additional language skills must be specified in Resources.

***Mando'a is mainly restricted to members of the Mandalorian faction. Characters that are not a part of this faction will require additional justification to acquire this language.
