Chronicles

**Chronicles** is a type of gameplay within the SWG universe that allows any player to become a Chronicler and to create their own quests and share them with other players within their server. Added to the game with Game Update 13,
 Chronicles uses a new Profession system, new items, and new skills to
enhance gameplay and bring player ingenuity to the forefront of the MMO
genre. Any player can become a Chronicle Master as the profession acts
independently of the player's main profession (in the same way that
Pilot and Politician does) and does not require any Expertise points.

As an Update 13 gift, you receive a Chronicles Start Kit.

## Chronicle Relics

These relics can be looted from almost any NPC in Star Wars Galaxies and are the basic building blocks of the Chronicler
 Profession. Each Relic represents a task that a player will have to
undergo in order to complete a quest. Relics quality can range from 1 to
 4 and relates to how challenging or exciting the task is. If a
Chronicler is capable of understanding the Relic (if their Relic Quality
 Skill is high enough) they can add these Relics to their Quest Builder
and use them in the creation of quests. A list of drop locations can be found here.

## Chronicle Relic Fragments

NPCs
 can also drop Chronicle Relic Fragments, and looted Relics can be
deconstructed into these Fragments. These fragments can be rebuilt by a
Chronicler into a new random Relic at a cost of ten Relic Fragments per
two new Relics. The skill of the Chronicler determines the quality of
the new relic.

## Chronicles Loot Toggle

With the inclusion of the April 2010 Bug Bash Update,
 developers added the /chroniclesloottoggle command which will stop the
NPC from generating Chronicles related loot upon its death. If any
member of a group has the toggle set to ON, then loot will still drop,
but if every group member has the toggle set to OFF then the loot will
not drop. By default the Chronicles Loot Toggle is set to ON.

## Career Progression

Creating quests within the Quest Builder
 grants Chronicler XP. As a player gets more and more XP they move up
through the levels of the Chronicler Profession which allows them to
create longer quests using more complex tasks. The different levels and
bonuses within the Chronicler Career Progression are as follows:

## Skill Modifiers

The four skill modifiers that this Career Progression gives are listed below:

* Holocron Task Efficiency - The number of different tasks that can be included in a quest.
* Chronicle Relic Quality - Allows the Chronicler to use higher quality relics in the creation of quests.
* Chronicle Relic Sharing Proficiency - The Chronicler's skill at allowing other players to share quests with them.
* Relic Mastery - Determines the benefit of crafting Relics from Relic Fragments.

## Player Created Quests [/Missions]

Once a Chronicler has created a quest, it becomes a Holocron which can
be traded, sold or shared with other players. Players can then complete
these quests and are rewarded with Silver or Gold Chronicle Tokens for doing so. These Tokens can be spent at the Chronicles Vendor in Theed on Naboo or Coronet on Corellia for various exclusive items.
