This is all about having fun and not getting weighed down too much in crafting and creating everything. Big, special and ultra-unique items or weapons/ships/planets extra will need to be created by you in our 'Factory' area.
But get to grips with the site and the RP system first before worrying about all that!
Just say you were handed down a lightsaber, or found it, or assembled it yourself from studies and blue-prints (not that you need to explain everything about your character history) and have fun out there!
