Each of the Heroic Classes from the Saga Edition Core Rulebook is presented here as it relates to The New Republic Era. Each Heroic Class has new Talents, some added to existing Talent Trees and others forming entirely new trees. These Talents can be used in other Eras of Play, subject to the Gamemaster's approval.
New Republic Jedi[]
The Jedi have returned. Luke Skywalker spent time training himself then reached out and searched for new Jedi to restore the order to its former strength. Heroes in The New Republic Era may come from any number of backgrounds. They could be failed Padawans from before the Clone Wars. They could be refugees from Order 66. They could be young, Force-sensitive children opening themselves to The Force for the first time. They could be from any world. They could be any age.
The Jedi Temple is no longer on Coruscant. For a time, there was no temple at all. Eventually, Luke received permission to use the old Rebel base on Yavin 4 as the new Jedi Praxeum. For the foreseeable future, this became the primary training facility for training Jedi in the Galaxy. Luke trained many new Jedi, and they spread through the galaxy, serving the Republic once again.
New Jedi Talents[]
The following new Talents are suitable for Jedi characters within The New Republic Era:
- New Talent: Jedi Guardian Talent Tree
New Republic Nobles[]
Nobles have returned to their previous status in the galaxy. Space Sectors were no longer run by Imperial Moffs and Governors. The New Republic Senate was back in power. Many existing senators returned to their original positions. New senators from new worlds joined the senate, and senators replaced those who were lost during the Galactic Civil War.
Mon Mothma, one of the architects of the Rebellion, hero of the Galactic Civil War, was chief of state. In time, she retired and Leia Organa Solo became chief of State. She maintains her seat until replaced by Borsk Fey'lya just before the Yuuzhan Vong Invasion.
Nobles in The New Republic Era may come from virtually any background. They could be old Republic senators resuming their job in The New Republic. They could be a new senator, taking a seat for a new member world, or replacing a dead senator. The hero could be a low level functionary of a senator or some other organization. They could possibly be a military officer.

- New Talents: Influence Talent Tree
New Republic Scoundrels[]
Like any other era, the Scoundrel is at home in The New Republic Era. Scams and plots that work at other times are no different at this time. There is always a need for a person to fence stolen goods, slice into a secure computer system, or infiltrate an estate to obtain a valuable item.
Scoundrels have little concern who is in charge at the moment, living from day to day as they can, working for a living or off the back of some hard-working innocent. They will find the same stakes and loot as much as any other period in galactic history.
Scoundrel heroes are little different from others in other eras. They have the same motivations, typical backgrounds and methods of operation as any scoundrel will. There are always smugglers, slicers, petty thieves, con men, and a host of others willing to work underhandedly to achieve their goals.

New Republic Scouts[]
In The New Republic Era, Scouts are very busy at work exploring new worlds to colonize, re-establishing contact with lost worlds, and forging new Hyperspace paths for trade. Every organization in The New Republic Era uses Scouts in some way.
Scouts always look over the horizon or off the map to find new adventure. They blaze the trail for others to follow, expanding Empires, exploring the unknown or providing critical intelligence to military organizations. Their curiosity and dedication provide the fuel to expand the known regions of the galaxy. Many Scout heroes are like this.
New Scout Talents[]
The following new Talents are suitable for Scout characters within The New Republic Era:
- New Talents: Hyperspace Explorer Talent Tree
New Republic Soldiers[]
Though Emperor Palpatine was destroyed and The Galactic Empire was defeated, Soldiers are still needed in the preservation of the new peace. Warlords and petty kings still threaten The New Republic, along with The Imperial Remnant.
Soldiers are found on all sides of conflict, either through idealism, greed, or conscription. Depending on the nature of their recruitment, they fight well or terribly. Morale is based on treatment and availability of luxury resources, good food and pay.
Heroic Soldiers could be found anywhere, from any background. They could be from a devastated world, hiring themselves out to bring money to themselves or their family. They could be one who believes in the cause and volunteer to fight for their world. Or they may have been taken in the middle of the night and forced to fight against their will.
