Character Creation

Character Creation

  1. Come up with a basic character concept, what is the character you will play like?
  2. Name - What is your character’s name?
  3. Origin - What Nation was your character raised in?
  4. Talent - What is your character’s special Talent?
  5. Talent Level - What level is that Talent at? Choose between 1 and 6. It us used to determine the level of effectiveness for your character’s Talent, as well as some other things (e.g., Friends, Enemies, Luck, Reputation and Wealth).
  6. Set Friends, Enemies, Luck, Reputation and Wealth to one.
  7. Destiny Points - Subtract your Character’s Talent Level from seven, these are your character’s Destiny Points. This will also determine how many skills they will start with.
  8. Background Points - Multiply your character’s Talent Points by three. After that is done, subtract one. That number is how many Background points your character has.
  9. Childhood - Choose a background, select a skill from each Aspect and spend Background Points to start with more Friends if you like.
  10. Early Schooling - Choose a background, select your Destiny in Skills and spend Background Points to start with more Enemies.
  11. Professional Training - Choose a background, select your Destiny in Skills and spend Background Points to start with more Wealth.
  12. Experience - Choose a background, select your Destiny in Skills and spend Background Points to start with more Reputation.
  13. Determine Luck - However many Background Points you have remaining, these are your Luck Points. If you have more than 6 left, the excess points add to the number of Enemies you have.
  14. Determine if your Reputation is positive or Negative.
  15. Select Friends and Enemies. Each Friend and Enemy must have a Name (it can be that of an NPC introduced by the GM, a PC or you can use that slot to introduce a new character to the setting) and an origin (why are they your friends or enemies?).
  16. If none of the PCs are one of your Friends, create another type of relationship with a PC.
  17. Describe their personality
  18. Describe their Motivation
  19. Describe their Goal
  20. You are done!
