Welcome to New Republic Radio!

This story arc is part of the four-arc Season Zero – a group of adventures set during important events after Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, intended to help bridge the gap between the original trilogy and the events of this show, which occur around the same time as The Mandalorian.

Each month will feature a new story arc with new players on worlds all across the Galaxy, some familiar and some never-before-seen.

Our third Season Zero story arc, THE LAST RIDE OF BUTTER BISCUIT, centers on a dangerous mission in 7 ABY on the edge of known space that can only be pulled off by the most reckless, heroic, and pedantic Galactic fugitives: the crew of the renegade Firespray-31 patrol craft Butter Biscuit! If these ex-Imperials-turned-freedom fighters are successful, they will be released from New Republic imprisonment and given a head start again. If not, their rap sheets won't matter anyway...

THE LAST RIDE OF BUTTER BISCUIT features the following performers:

• Bek’rim [Last name REDACTED] is performed by Peter Rusk, who can be found on Twitter @prusk4.



• Dr. Faran Thiel is performed by Cody Raasch, who can be found on Twitter @CodyRaasch.
